“Cash or card”.

Not so sure that it can’t be tailored to big businesses. Regulations carve out exceptions all the time based on employee count, annual turnover, customer count (hits), etc

Criticising Israel can be antisemitic. Just check out the IHRA definition of antisemitism . Basically you can’t say that:

• Israel is a racist endeavour
• Comparing Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.
• Say that they use murder (especially of Christians) for ritual purposes.

Not gonna lie, this is kinda a refutation of the whole open source model. I was led to believe that it shouldn’t matter who writes the code, as long the code is able to be interrogated/corrected.

If this is any guide, maybe there should also be an upper age limit, too.

Well the devil is in the detail. However, what appears is being mooted is it will only affect big social media corporations. A Lemmy instance is hardly big business. Not that I’m discounting creeping regulation moving into the fediverse.

I was shocked about the amount of content when I browsed BBC’s Iplayer service. They even have films. If you want to save some well known movies and are in the UK, you could exhaust their selection before even having to put your hand in your pocket to splash out on extra privatised content.

Not seen this before, looks like Audacious on steroids. A bit like Photoshop vs MS Paint.

I could have sworn that this story has done the rounds already. I guess it’s an update on that story as he has now resorted to litigation.

I was told that it was convention to use the highest government title that a person received once they leave government. Personally, I don’t think that explanation holds much water. We don’t really hear, for example of President Obama any more. Nor do we hear Secretary of State Clinton. On a practical matter, it can cause confusion so outside propaganda, I don’t see much utility in it.

Maybe it took this long to develop an alternative. They now have an alternative… Right? The Kremlin wouldn’t send it’s citizens off to fight without being sufficiently equipped… Right?

It’s a storage agnostic protocol for sending, receiving and enumerating to/from cloud storage. Think off it like email. Email service providers allow for a number of ways to access your email, be it pop3, IMAP or web. The underlying technology is abstracted away. In the same way cloud storage allows for web, s3 and/or WebDAV. Amongst others. And likewise the back end is abstracted away. The s3 client you use doesn’t need to know how the data is actually stored. And there’s some pretty whacky storage back ends.

At this point he’s just pushing potential users away. I wonder if he’s given up on it and is just holding on to it until the election is completed.

I wonder if some kind of mesh might work. Maybe like a secret Santa type deal. By that I mean everyone who connects, gets a randomised, anonymous partner or partners. Everyone in the swarm streams for each other.

At least 34 people have requested to move to Russia from the UK

What does this mean. So the actual number could be any number between 34 and the entire population of the UK?

Or, does it mean that there is 34 people that we know of. And they’re having trouble finding anyone else.

I wonder how many Russians have left Russia in the same time period.

I also wonder what percentage 34 people are of the entire population of the UK.

It just strikes me as a desperate propaganda ploy from the Kremlin. Inflating a nothing burger beyond all proportion.

I wish our expats well. And the best of luck to 'em.

Maybe you could hang around downtown with a sign around your neck advertising “Free Hugs”.

It’s OK the NHS has GPs coming out of it’s ears… </s>

I think the trade is, you take on the purchase of the house, and the landlord takes on all the downside risk.

Not so sure that will work. ESIMs are really convenient and cost effective for travelers and people who flit between countries. You can even load up an ESIM before leaving for a country. Your other option is to pay through the nose for roaming. Or arranging a pay as you go SIM in a country where you may not have a full grasp of the language.

Not gonna lie, if this were a real product, I’d be tempted. You see, for Android phones, ESIM registration uses propriety Google code. A programmable device that can present to the phone as a regular SIM would be a boon.
