@hpod16@eupolicy.social @maumau@chaos.social @EC_NGI@ec.social-network.europa.eu unfortunately NGI allocated peanuts for FOSS projects. US and China out there allocate trillions for their tech stacks, and Europe allocates just a dozen of millions for FOSS projects and thinks that it's enough. And then they also put out their "call for evidence" for FOSS - as if all the evidence collected in all these years wasn't enough and the ball was still in our court as developers. The right ideas are there, but eligibility criteria should be thinner, funds much larger (at least by a 25x factor), and preferably raised through shared financial instruments (i.e. Eurobonds), so we don't have to dig in underfunded EU departments nor end up with a situation where the member States that can invest the most get ahead of the others, and more EU institutional accounts should be active on the Fediverse and actually respond to questions (in most of the cases it looks like institutional EU accounts are mostly mirrors of X accounts). Oh, and projects like the W social network (or whatever its name is now) should be called out for going in the exact opposite direction: we need open solutions based on open protocols, not alternative closed corporate giants.

@petersuber oh no! Anyway.

@benroyce is that the People's Popular Antifa of Portland, the Portland Antifa Front, or the National Antifa Party Portland Chapter?

@AnitaWorks9698 gut

@catsalad Seen it in a commercial building in Germany a few years ago.

@avoca@gladtech.social lol, okay

@MortonRobD @angusm @cstross Shooting human limbs out of cannons would do a lot of damage to enemy sails. Just something to think about.

@jdbar Even dollars have to content with the network effect.But yes, "one dollar one vote" is what the Supreme Court has given us, and it's a recipe for oligarchy.

@Chris @SorenMRiis Ha ja, synet kræver at nogen laver ski-spor

@2ndStar Wäre eine große Thermoskanne nicht besser geeignet? Die solltest du selbst im Halbschlaf aufgeschraubt bekommen 🥱

@magdalenahai @ElinaPyy @anulahtinen @titia @jari_vuorijoki @HannaEsmeralda_ Mä olen ekat 19v ollut Satakunnassa ja etenkään pienemmillä paikkakunnilla ei todellakaan höpötelty vieraille, jos ei ollut asiaa. Sit muutin Jyväskylään opiskelemaan ja tutustuin useampaan pohjoisesta tulleeseen, ilm. koska he olivat vähän avoimempia. Piti myös mennä Jyväskylään asti, jotta löysi pari Satakunnasta lähtenyttä (opiskelu yhdisti). Nyt kun olen ollut Hömeessä 20+ vuotta ja asiakaspalvelussa kohta 20 vuotta siinäkin, huomaan olevani herkempi juttelemaan kenen vaan kanssa. Mulla taitaa olla myös näkymätön ”asiakaspalveluja” -kyltti kaulassa, multa tullaan helposti kysymään juttuja. Ajoittain on kyllä semmoisia mörrimöykkypäiviä, ei vaan jaksa olla auki… Olen jollain tasolla introvertti ja en tahdo jaksaa semmoista ”pidetään puhumalla linja auki” -juttelua, tavallaan ymmärrän paremmin tuntemattomille juttelun, etenkin jos on jokin kysymys, johon tarvitsee vastauksen. Esim. postin pakettinoutopaikassa oon ”päässyt” opastamaan ihmisiä melkein aina kun sinne menen…

@MeierSchulze OMG, das ist übel. Da ist ja ein großer Teil der Familie, der da durch Alkohol vernichtet wurde. 🫂Ich habe in jungen Jahren 2 Klassenkameraden und eine Freundin wegen Alkohol verloren. Jeder von ihnen hatte einen Unfall, wo im anderen Fahrzeug jeweils ein Betrunkener am Steuer saß.

@ulrichkelber @frank Das ist aber nur löblich wenn aus eigenem Garten. Aber da Zucker drin ist, auch wieder nix.

@jenniferplusplus I think the best news of all is that reasonable business leaders will cut their losses and won't keep pouring endless money down the drain or setting it on fire. This "AI" hype is finally over!/s

@sven_giegold wer sorgt für mehr nicht gelieferte kWh, Reiche oder die Vulkan-Gruppe? Oder: Ist das noch Unvermögen?

@qboq I've had four BMW motorcycles, three from the 20th century and one from 2007 (still have that one; owned basically since new). Buying expensive parts and the occasional proprietary tool was always frustrating, but with the 2007 they were definitely trending in the "we don't want you working on it" direction. I do my own maintenance, but it elevates my blood pressure every time.For my own sanity, I also have a Moto Guzzi, on which I can adjust the valves in my sleep, with my eyes closed, one hand tied behind my back, etc.@iFixit

@wdlindsy I've always felt a way about how the Fed utilizes my tax money, but I am uncomfortably enraged at the idea of them using my money for ICE/death camps.Blue state alliance please. I want no part of any of this American holocaust.
