Buy an ad-subsidized machine, be forced to watch ads, unfortunately.

Win what?

Well heres the reference they cited in the law.

Everybody has their own unique internal world, so obviously you do you. All I can tell you that from my point of view it looks very confusing when you talk about "pornographic material at schools" in one comment and then provide references that, by anyone looking for pornographic material could at best be described as "incredibly disappointing".

I mean, seriously: If you were a bookshop owner and someone asked you for some good porn, would you hush them, look around fertively and then genuinely recommend any of this?

I see, thanks

Yo, dumnezero@piefed.social, this is really not cool. You're actively undermining discourse and wasting other people's time if you share this kind of auto-generated nonsense.

I’ve also found LLMs helpful as a compliment to web searching for my work (I deal with lots of public datasets from international organisations); LLM queries have helped me find sources that I missed via directed search.

Do consider that web search had been a computationally simple and more importantly solved problem that has gotten steadily more unsolved over the course of the past 25 years.

Users shouldn’t have to care about jurisdiction if the servers cannot ever read their messages in the first place. Any app that fails to meet this requirement should wholesale be disqualified.

What madness is this? Surely this is not about the servers reading a message, but about the user having or not having legal recourse against a server abusing whatever it is they can read. Metadata is data. Someone somewhere will know how much and when and in which patterns I communicate with who. And how much control I have over what they do with that knowledge simply depends on the jurisdiction. Technical considerations are irrelevant for that 🤷

Thank you, I'll check it out! It's great that they have a raw .apk download available, I don't have access to a Playstore.

I'm a user. I just want to run the software. I don't really care about the means of delivery. If it's not available via package manager, then I have to get it some other way.

Is there any solution to getting DOS games to work on Android? There seems to have been an old DOSBox version but all information I can find at a glance seem to be outdated. I feel like all the old 90s adventures would be great to run on my phone. Maybe even much earlier stuff like Zork. Or is this a fool's errand?

In addition, many titles are designed from the ground-up to be online-only; in effect, these proposals would curtail developer choice by making these video games prohibitively expensive to create.

Why even bother asking industry outlets about this? Clearly they will just keep on trying to paint the picture that they're people with rights and desires and not just replaceable entities serving at the behest of consumers, i.e. actual people.

Unfortunately, even if the Stop Killing Games movement eventually succeeds in creating some sort of policy changes, they will only apply in the EU (and potentially the UK, as well), so publishers and developers may still be able to permanently shut down games in other parts of the world.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that. The whole world automatically benefits from regional legislation affecting global actors like international publishers. Just like the whole world benefitted from Europe enforcing GDPR compliance: Every reddit and Facebook user, not just Europeans, being able to download a data dump of their site activities isn't something that came about randomly.

Anyway why would navy even matter in this hypothtical situation? r*ssians regretfully aren’t regarded enough to attack anyone over sea.

Maybe there's some kind of misunderstanding here. What's the current non-US-based NATO naval contingent around the China Sea?

What a strange soundbite.
Surely it's not "NATO" that provides any kind of military counterbalance in the Taiwan Strait in any sense of the word? European naval forces aren't really a regional player (and arguably not any kind of player).

So I guess what Rutte is really trying to do is to publicly state "I definitely believe a Russian attack on NATO would immediately draw every US aircraft carrier into the Baltic Sea! Would suck for Taiwan, but I defnitely believe in the dependability of all alliance members!" while sweating profusely.

Good!
As in: I approve of the concept. I hold this to be an acceptable way for modern countries to undermine each other if they desperately feel the need to. Economic pressure, back-room dealings, information campaigns... all much better than having hapless 19-year olds lob grenades at each other.
Not so keen if it's only done in addition to and not as a replacement for military buildup and sabrerattling though...

Warum sagst du nicht einfach Raps?

Weil ich zum Ausdruck bringen möchte, dass ich wenig Liebe zur Agrarflächennutzung für Tierfutter- und Kraftstoffgewinnung und damit wenig Liebe zum Raps habe - bestensfalls eine Arbeitsbeschaffungsmaßnahme für Landwirte und schlimmstenfalls eine gänzlich vermeidbare Überbewirtschaftung.

Exactly, it's just a shakedown.

Man... Cloudflare's PR department has been moving mountains over the past 5 years. In my mind their brand still only barely ranks above the Khmer Rouge.

Ich wusste nicht das man Tote härter bestrafen kann. Tut mir eher um den Bauern leid der da nichts anbauen kann.

Oh nein, weniger Tierfuttermittel und Dieselraps!
Selbst als Ackerbesitzer kann ich dir sagen: Agrarflächen sind wunderschöne Geldanlagen, aber keine sinnvolle Nutzung von Fläche. Eine größtenteils obsolete Berufsgruppe mag zu Recht über ihre eigene Obsoleszenz enttäuscht und erbost sein, und dass dir das Leid tut spricht für deine Empathie - aber Agrarpolitik kann man auf dieser Basis nicht machen. Es wird zu viel angebaut, lass mal weniger anbauen.

I was an idiot and bought a high end TPLink router, I can’t even use Vlans without signing up for their back door service.

Hm, at least with their enterprise equipment you can completely disable Omada.

Dann geht die Diskussion über die Progression wieder los, bei der man dann wieder auf die magischen 65000€ brutto als Höchstsatz kommt. 65k sind nicht viel. 65k sind mehr als viele haben, weil die meisten in diesem Land bei solchen Diskussionen die Angeschissenen sind. Aber solange man da nicht mal an die wirklich Reichen geht, anstatt sich selbst zu zerfleischen, glaube ich, dass wir hier keine faire Kurve finden werden.

Ich denke, ich verstehe dich falsch, aber ich kann es mir nicht anders zusammenreimen - ich lese in diesen Sätzen: "Ich habe die Hoffnung auf eine faire Lösung für dieses oder ähnliche Probleme grundsätzlich aufgegeben".
Ich meine... wenn man inhärent unfaire Dinge wie Höchstsätze à la Spitzensteuersätze oder Beitragsbemessungsgrenzen überhaupt zulässt, kommt am Ende natürlich nie eine "faire Kurve" raus.
Darf man halt nicht zulassen 🤷

Jedes Jahr feilschen Bund und Länder über die Zukunft des Deutschlandtickets. Stattdessen sollten der Preis sowie die Zuschüsse der Politik mit der Inflation steigen. Das wäre einfach und fair.

Einfach und fair wäre, alle Bundesbürger einen jährlichen einkommensabhängigen ÖPNV-Beitrag zahlen zu lassen und dann sämtliche öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel als Mobilitäts-Grundversorgung allen Bundesbürgern kostenlos zur Verfügung zu stellen...
