Ah okay, I wasn’t aware of that. I hope you find a safe alternative!

Would something like this be relevant?

More info.

If the US pulls out, NATO could continue existing with current members. I’d like to see a European Military Union (part of the EU) which in its turn is part of NATO, but NATO itself doesn’t need replacing. Let’s also hope the US will at some point return to democratic values and be a supporting member of international organisations again. I hope other countries (especially European) have learned that alliances have weaknesses, especially when you put all faith on one single country.

He has to represent the interests of all NATO states, not just the US’. He may not have to criticise US’ stance on things, but he neither has to embody them. I can’t remember Stoltenberg doing any of this, and being accused of not doing his job.

Also, Dutch media have been pushing a frame that Rutte is carved out for this job so hard, that when he finally became SG they kept defending the despicable things he has said. All those slimey words do not even seem to be effective, as Trump keeps threatening Greenland and abandoning NATO.

Gorgeous! A similar style exists of Maastricht. I’ll check later if I can find it.

Okay, there are other maps that have a similar style, but I was thinking of this one made by Blaeu and his son^[1].

This interview (Dutch) with the investor should, in my opinion, scare people away from it. It’s just a bunch of none-answers and uncertainty

Q: Is that your plan with Office EU too? To sell it after a few years?

A: Tja, I am not sure about that. I can’t see that far into the future, I don’t know.

Q: So which apps don’t use Nextcloud?

A: Once we’re live, I’ll show you.

Q: Have you written any code around it yourselves?

A: A great deal has been written around it. (This is literally the whole answer to that question)

Q: Could you give an example of that? Will that be open source too?

Q: Well, look, you know what it is? I don’t really feel comfortable talking about this. You approached me. I’m saying: I’m not actually ready for this yet, because we’re sorting out a few things.

Let’s hope it’s an accident. I have an app that allows for voting by swiping on a comment/post. It used to be quite sensitive and I found out I had down/up voted unintentionally when swiping back a couple of times.

I’d rather support Environmental Party the Greens (MDG) who also support EU membership, but it is one of a few topics I can agree with Høyre (Norwegian People’s Party) on. Venstre (social liberals, confusingly named Left) and the Labour Party are generally also pro-EU.

According to this article voter support is 1) MDG, 2) Labour, 3) Venstre, 4) Høyre. This article is from last year, however. ‘Yes to EU’ is in minority again (51 against, 33 support).

I am an iPhone user too, but have been wanting to move to AOSP for while. All phones are so large now, so am using a mini. Hopefully Graphene works on a razr (flip) soon!

Giving in to the far-right will only lead to the nomalisation of dehumanising immigrants and asylum seekers. Maybe they should try reducing the wealth-gap instead of blaming a small group of vulnerable people.

They also take in consideration whether the chips can be produced with fairly paid labour (to a certain level). I believe they have once stated that this was an important reason not to use some chips.

It annoys me when people say she is not as populist as feared, based on that she is supporting Ukraine and not anti-EU, while in Italy she is pushing hard against migrants, asylum seekers, and the LGBTQ+community.

Note that your link directs to the latest post. I think it is because of the /fap/. If that is removed it works fine. I think that’s a bit of a messy system that APOD uses.

I guess what he is talking about is that you linked the image (https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ image /2602/PIA20522enceladus .jpg ), but not the actual blog post (https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap260207.html (be sure not to include /fap/ in the link)) that include the textual information.

I am not sure if the image will show when adding the blog post as a link (instead of the image link), but when using the image link it is nice to add the blog post seperately. I think the blog post would be more valuable than the individual organisations underneath.

I commend you are adding sources! Thank you :)

It didn’t really start recently. The openness about it, sure. The constant effort in malicious compliance with open standards, new regulations, and consumer lock-in are derived from greed and are not new.

Apple have had some of the best technologist and designers, but for sure have had the best marketers. I doubt they’ll manage to keep everyone on board on this new low, though.

I am happy I started quite a few years ago with moving away from Apple software (this is such an effort in itself because of the lock-in). I still have their devices, however, I am looking to replace them with alternatives when they need replacing.

I like the logo with pixelated font.

Especially since mastodon is accessible for anyone, whether they have a mastodon account or not.

Not everyone’s piece of cake, but I like Anki (FOSS) and download community made language decks.

Try your library, maybe they offer some streaming alternatives.
