Or if you’re like me and see a thread, be all like “Oh, that could be interesting, I’ll check that later,” and put your phone away for a few hours, and then, when you finally get to check the thread again, and refresh it just to be up to date, you see it’s been permanently deleted…

I’d say I usually prefer cut. Otherwise its length becomes completely unmanageable. I don’t have all night to watch only a single film, y’know?

I heard there is talk of a projects for the EU to increase its digital sovereignty. Now would be a great time for those projects to come to fruition.

As for me, if this means that there’ll be an EU-wide reboot of Hyves, I’d be thrilled. Extra so if, on the back-end, it works on a Federated system.

The first example that popped to my mind:

My mind immediately goes to gruesome metal album covers. Iron Maiden has some stuff with decaying flesh, exposed bones, and a ton of other stuff that makes the faint of heart go:

But those on the inside to go “heck yeah 🤘”

City “twinning” goes beyond the EU. And it can happen for all kinds of reasons. My favourite example is the towns of Dull, Scotland, Boring, Oregon and Bland, New South Wales.

Dried cranberries coated in chocolate.
I call them crackberries.

Instructions unclear, ripping and tearing.

If we then add a few conditions: “no links in the root message” and “OP may not be the first to comment within some unspecified amount of time,” that could make it even easier to limit CSAM.

You call it a bug.

I call it a feature.

Driverless is fine, it’s the magnetic thing that has me raising an eyebrow.

I’m getting basically the same at the moment if I try to go there.

This. I’d only accept this if everyone, and then I mean EVERYONE on the road has the patience of a saint and the radio discipline of an airline pilot at all times. I’d be fine if the most threatening you could ever expect is a “four six golf victor delta niner, your blinker is still live and your tail light is out, be advised, over” but you just KNOW there’s gonna be someone who’ll go “HEY YOU removed IN A WHITE VAN! STAY OUT OF MY FUCKING LANE OR I’LL END YOU AND YOUR MOTHER!”

Me? When I use text communication? Never. Closest I get to using AI is letting a trusted acquaintance look over the message if I’m communicating with organisations. But beyond that? Nope.

I’m with the guy who’s at the op of the thread as of me typing. “If you can’t genuinely talk with me without the need for an LLM then I’d say we weren’t really friends to begin with.” ~@mriormro

Republic, you say? *King Willem-Alexander has entered the chat*

In this election, the “libs” are the VVD who, as a socialist (GL/PvdA) I’d hate to say but, are the most right wing reasonable party. You cannot project American political discourse and concepts on Dutch politics.

I’d wish upon Omtzigt to stick to his morals and tell the PVV to pound sand. Meanwhile, Timmermans has already declared that he’s ready to lead the opposition, and he has a history of zero patience for fascists, so there’s a chance this’ll become a minority coalition.

My background is quite technical, and I think I can wrap my head around piloting, so I think I can

Found the furry!

And NGL, may I join?
