Alrighty then, every MB of EU-user-generated data transferred to servers of US digital services now incurs a fee of 0.1€.

If you don't pay, or during ongoing proceedings, the packets are not forwarded to the IP range of that service.

I bet that would resolve all problems very quickly.

So.... then host your own instance and set up your own rules and mod /de-federate how you see fit?

It's an offer you don't have to take as-is, and this shows it's the exact opposite of a failure: you can be the change you demand from others.

Yeah, but the astroturfing botfarms are only activated to foment "oohh aahh yeah gotta be responsible with our children's debt" opinions when it's the other way around. And of course all big "news" entertainment papers and shows are in on it because of access and money. I mean, they're all doing what they're paid for and the general public can't be arsed to be smart about it, call bullshit and cut off the value extraction because of perceived inconveniences (data harvesting = ability to manipulate/steer public opinion = value to sell to those seeking power & control). the populace is the commodity being sold here.

We are all cooked

Jo, benutzen auf der Arbeit Big Blue Button für größere meetings und Matrix für Chat und 1:1 oder 1:2 Telefonate. Funktioniert gut

Alright, might have to do some deeper investigation for why it's messing up. Anyhow glad to hear it does work in principle and it may be something I'm doing - thanks!

Was trying this, but I've had issues with the app not properly synchronizing with the server. Does that work for you and if so, what's your setup?

Was supposed to replace "Bring" and due to the issues, currently using grocy, where sync works, but is otherwise very tedious to manage inventory.

Make political advertisement / political messaging illegal on entertainment platforms. There's precedent for highly regulated TV advertisements, why is there such a broad exception for unregulated manipulative online advertising? Why is cigarette, religious, drug advertising forbidden but political lies and agendas allowed, endorsed even? Fines need to be 50% of monthly worldwide profit and increase by 5% for each month of noncompliance.

This simple legislation would instantly solve a lot of current issues with what's wrong and protect free, democratic nations.

Fuck that other site

the GPL’s sweeping liability exclusions might not be enforceable in some EU jurisdictions.1

Interfaces, protocols, and APIs are not always covered by copyright under EU law, depending on their functional nature.

As for MIT licence: its brevity doesn't reduce applicable laws—it merely omits explicit handling of them, which can create legal uncertainty in civil law jurisdictions.

Especially hard is working in a community where everyone accepts a commiter's agreement (contributers license agreement, I guess: CLA), and to handling all author metadata GDPR applies to anyone who handles the source code in a DVCS for non-private purpose. Having a brief licence when the CLA is typically 1 through 3 pages of A4 text is not that much of an upside.

Writing this down has nearly no effect, since you implicitly have these responsibilities anyway
