19½ months. That's how long Mozilla was prepared to listen to a small, unfiltered subset of their users, for a laughably meager maintenance cost.

We’ve made the hard decision to end our experiment with Mozilla.social and will shut down the Mastodon instance on December 17, 2024. Thank you for being part of the Mozilla.social community and providing feedback during our closed beta. You can continue to use Mozilla.social until December 17. Before that date, you can download your data here (https://mozilla.social/settings/export), and migrate your account to another instance following these instructions (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozilla-social-faq).

Not only do [the old trucks] only get 9 miles per gallon, they’re also noisy, smelly (I have to close my window every day when the mail truck comes around), have no air conditioning, hard to stand up in, and their only safety feature is mirrors that constantly fall out of alignment.

There was almost a Mormon Navy?

Now I feel bad that perhaps her best friend kept calling her "old man".

So it sounds like you don't believe progressive taxation works. I guess that's an understandable viewpoint. But if you think complexity is the problem, I have a hard time accepting your assessment of me as naïve. People that want simple solutions to complex problems are showing the lack of sophistication that defines naïvety.

When did they last get their way via shutdown? Usually it costs Republicans politically.

Correct, they are different. But if you accept that evaluating a person's wealth happens successfully for taxation, there's no reason why the same metric can't be used for fines.
