Are you interested?

@sawaba
Acknowledging and accepting your mistakes are notable signs of decent character. Publicly admitting to them and expressing how you wish to improve yourself is commendable if done so sincerely.

All that being said, all the above is already possible- just depends on the admin in question if they want to implement them. Things like notifications are user-preference defined as well. Regardless, Mastodon is still better a product than Twitter or Spill.

At least you didn't get in an accident or food poisoning.

What are the terms? They include:

He’s on home detention at his parents’ house with an ankle monitor.

He’s under “intensive” pretrial supervision, which means Pretrial Services — sort of like a probation office for people before trial — will be watching him very carefully and checking in frequently. They’ll also determine when he’s allowed to leave his parents’ home (usually for medical appointments, church, lawyer visits, and work if he’s employed).

He’s had to surrender his passport and can’t go anywhere other than the Northern District of California (where he’ll live with his parents) and the Southern District of New York (where he’ll go on trial).

He can’t open a business or engage in financial transactions over $1,000 or open lines of credit without government approval.

But what about the money? The headlines all said he was released on a $250 million bond. That’s a lot, right?

Yes, it certainly is. But most of that is not secured — it’s just a promise to pay it if he flees or breaks the terms of release. That distinguishes it from bonds that must be posted as cash, or which must be “fully justified,” that is fully backed by real property or other assets. The financial terms are:

The total bond amount — the amount he promises to pay if he breaks the terms of release — is $250 million.

His parents co-signed the bond, meaning they are on the hook for that amount (which they can’t pay, obviously) if he breaks the terms of the bond.

Two non-parent sureties have to sign the bond, pledging amounts approved by the government, by January 5. That means Bankman-Fried must find two non-parent supporters with substantial assets to agree to sign off on the bond and be responsible for up to a specified amount (likely in the hundreds of thousands) if he breaks the terms of the bond.

His parents must post the equity in their home by January 5. That means they have to file with the court and record documents entitling the government to the equity in their home if he breaks the bond conditions. Given the home, which they bought in 1991 and is in Palo Alto, that’s likely millions of dollars in equity.

It's a bad habit I should stop. You're welcome to buy me one should I slip up again.

@admitsWrongIfProven

You're describing an inhibitor. Are you directly assuming my work ethic?

@admitsWrongIfProven

Your reply comes across as condescending.

I was being wary of a what would likely be a doomed startup or a scam. Were I to have faith in that company, I would have applied.

>>3. Access to more games than I could ever find time to play.

Says every PC gamer, ever. I don't know how many games in my steam library I've been meaning to play...

Non-profits, religious institutions and federally-funded organizations are tax exempt.

Want to make your real estate tax-exempt? It's possible, but get ready to do a lot of research, planning and paperwork.
