I have this:
newcommandbpic[2]
makebox[textwidth][l]
fboxmakebox[.1textwidth][r]includegraphics[width=20pt]#1hspace*5ptfboxparbox.9textwidth#2newline%
bpicresilience.pngResilience, in that broken nodes do not compromise the network entirely;
bpicspontaneity.pngSpontaneity, a feature empowered by the network's capacity to form and heal itself;
bpicdecentralization.pngDecentralization, in the sense that having devices connect directly the need for Internet providers is alleviated;
bpicscale.pngScale, as a consequence of the fact that such networks benefit from node density to form a greater number of alternative paths;
bpicthroughput.pngThroughput, an attribute achieved by enabling multiple paths simultaneously to transmit data to a given destination;
bpicbalancing.pngLoad balancing, with several alternatives being used to leverage traffic on the network;
bpiccosts.pngReduced costs of infrastructure, due to the nodes connecting directly, thereby alleviating the need for central authorities.
That is resulting in this:
All fboxs are there only for the sake of understanding the layout. There a few things wrong with what I want:
The boxes are exceeding the text width in comparison with the rest of the text. Notice that at the right.
I wanted the picture and text boxes to be the same height and with the text centered vertically.
If the text needs more vertically space than what is used by the image, the image below should adjust by being lower––just as with a bullet list.
How can I do this?

Have you thought using a tabular for this? (And well, if you add dimensions that exceed the text width, it is perhaps not too surprising that things run over. E.g.tabularxtakes care of this.)

Your desired output looks like a table to me. (If you want to run over page breaks with it, you may want to use longtable instead of tabularx.)

As marmot suggests, I'd wrap this in a table. In fact, to ensure consistent formatting I would wrap everything into a nice little macro so that you can write your table as
ImageTable{
example-image-aResilience, in that broken nodes ...,
example-image-bSpontaneity, a feature empowered...,
example-image-cDecentralization, in the sense...,
example-image-aScale, as a consequence of the fact...,
example-image-bThroughput, an attribute achieved...,
example-image-cLoad balancing, with several alternatives...,
example-imageReduced costs of infrastructure, due...
to produce:
So, ImageTable accepts a comma separated list of pairs that give the image and the corresponding text.
Normally. I would do this using docsvlist from the etoolbox package but I found it tricky to pass two arguments (the image and the text) through to the do command (newcomanddo[2]... didn't work). Instead I have used the slightly fancier and scarier looking LaTeX3 package together with the etoolbox package to align the images (this adds a few extra options to the includegraphics command such as the align=? used below). If you want to tweak the image alignment have a look at the other options available in the package documentation.
Here is the full code:

So, ImageTable accepts a comma separated list of pairs that give the image and the corresponding text.
Normally. I would do this using docsvlist from the etoolbox package but I found it tricky to pass two arguments (the image and the text) through to the do command (newcomanddo[2]... didn't work). Instead I have used the slightly fancier and scarier looking LaTeX3 package together with the etoolbox package to align the images (this adds a few extra options to the includegraphics command such as the align=? used below). If you want to tweak the image alignment have a look at the other options available in the package documentation.
Here is the full code:

usepackagetabularx
usepackageexpl3
usepackagegraphbox
usepackagemwe% for images

example-image-aResilience, in that broken nodes do not compromise the network entirely;,
example-image-bSpontaneity, a feature empowered by the network's capacity to form and heal itself;,
example-image-cDecentralization, in the sense that having devices connect directly the need for Internet providers is alleviated;,
example-image-aScale, as a consequence of the fact that such networks benefit from node density to form a greater number of alternative paths;,
example-image-bThroughput, an attribute achieved by enabling multiple paths simultaneously to transmit data to a given destination;,
example-image-cLoad balancing, with several alternatives being used to leverage traffic on the network;,
example-imageReduced costs of infrastructure, due to the nodes connecting directly, thereby alleviating the need for central authorities.

Have you thought using a tabular for this? (And well, if you add dimensions that exceed the text width, it is perhaps not too surprising that things run over. E.g.
tabularxtakes care of this.)– marmot
