Step 3. The Threads user boosts it to their audience
Step 4. Your entire server is now dead because your server cannot handle a measly 100,000 likes from Threads accounts it has never seen before. It has to fetch all their profiles just to process the Like/Favorite. Your server is now stuck in Sideqik Hell (or equivalent) and grinds to a halt. Just because of ONE post you made.
This value is federated to every server. It's how you identify threads and block them. You can do this just fine on other non-Mastodon platforms like Pleroma.
@thendrix@lain@lnxw37b2 If you don't want to contribute to the discussion just don't join the discussion. It was a reasonable request to ask you to share the specific legislation you were alluding to.
> Wildfires in 2017 and 2018 wiped out two times the underwriting profits that insurers had accrued over the prior 26 years. Yet state Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara won’t let insurers raise premiums to account for increasing wildfire risks. California is the only state that requires insurers to set premiums based on historical experience.
> Nearly 500,000 Californians have turned to the state’s insurer of last resort, the FAIR Plan, which has doubled in size over the past five years. The state is now exposed to nearly $458 billion in potential damage, a figure that has nearly tripled since 2020.
> Pacific Palisades is also the state’s fifth-largest user of FAIR policies, with nearly $6 billion in exposure. Even a fraction of that amount would exceed the capabilities of FAIR, which at last report had about $700 million in cash.
LMAO the state insurance is exposed to $458B but they only have $700M?????
What happens then??? California cannot print money; they are not the Federal gov
@sun@p@RedTechEngineer@matrix@j Java has somehow improved to the point that it's blown apart all my old arguments and complaints. It's really a technical marvel these days
