Everything written about this conflict (by anyone) is propaganda. The enemy is a powerful and maximally oppressive force we all need to fear, but is also so weak it’s losing equipment fast and its final defeat is only a matter of time.

A gnome obviously

Do we have “circlejerk” or “shitposting” communities here on Lemmy already?

Without having listened to the other song (I know “Levitating” obviously)… this is definitely a good thing. There is only a limited amount of melodies that are possible to make and if “derivative work” is interpreted very broadly, at some point there won’t be any way to make new songs.

she (the minister for children) was 22, the other person was 15, i.e. a teenager

Different pieces of legislation. This was about the French legislature voting against a national anti-encryption bill. Chat control is an EU-level bill and the French legislature isn’t really involved in that, only the French government and France’s EU representatives.

Not so in Austria. Only Haftpflichtversicherung is required which only covers the car owner’s liability.

some of them maybe? surely not all?

These settings don’t do what you want?

Can you give some links what these “pieces of anti-trans legislation” were going to do? Not familiar with that yet.

I don’t think Trump knows very much about anything he’s doing, whether this or anything else.

(Incidentally, this also means I don’t think he’s doing most of the bad things he’s doing out of malice or dictatorial ambitions. He just has no idea about anything he’s doing.)

Scribus, ideally.

One piece of non-free software gone, many more to go.

In Spanish, as far as I know, “americano” = inhabitant of the American continent, “estadounidense” = person from the US, so I don’t think Mexicans would be offended at the first, at least not in Spanish.

Why would one even get the idea to use AI for something like this?

Coalitions and minority governments have happened in the UK too (e.g. early 2010s was a coalition between Conservatives and Liberal Democrats), but much more rarely than in a system with proportional representation (like Austria). Usually in the UK the party that gets the most votes does also get a majority of seats.

Precisely the opposite of what the world needs.

Copyleft licenses are harder to comply with, they usually come with clauses that can be interpreted in different ways, termination clauses, etc.

Yeah I know, I sort Lemmy by “new comments” and Mastodon obviously only chronologically.

It’s just that the first type of “social media” I ever used (in my childhood) was the web forum and I kinda miss that. :D
