@katzenberger @EUCommission Hmm, I agree that "continue their respective paths towards the EU" only applies to some of the listed countries and that this sentence is misleading. At the same time, the linked article does explain which countries made progress, which backslid and which are a mixed bag.

This isn't the first time Commission's media people screwed up.

Help shape Europe’s Digital Commons — Open position for EDIC Director (F/M/X)

Last week, the European Commission announced the creation of the EDIC Digital Commons, a new initiative to support open, interoperable digital commons and strengthen digital sovereignty for 450 million Europeans.

The consortium is now hiring a Director to join the founding team and take the #EDICDigitalCommons into its next phase.

@noelreports You can get your name on a drone by donating certain amount of money. Unfortunately this info is only on Twitter, not on their website.

@katzenberger @EUCommission Which action of the EU Commission made you so outraged?

@kevinashworth @eff You could get a phone with GNU/Linux on it, but there would be much less apps available unless it had some Android emulator.

A quick DDG search found this: linuxstans.com/linux-phone/

@noelreports This and his other actions are consistent with the idea of allying with Russia against China. It's interesting that Trump went back to Obama's ideas of reset with Russia, rather than continuing Biden's more confrontational stance.

@eff I hope for more adoption of browsers not based on Chromium.

Russia is now using FPV drones guided via 4G networks, delivered deep into Ukrainian territory by “Molniya” UAVs. The FPV detaches mid-air and connects to Ukraine’s LTE to search for targets. One such combo attacked a civilian minibus in Mykolaivka, Sumy region, 35 km from the border.

@rysiek @nextcloud For people who don't want to host their own Nextcloud, Hetzner offers cheap Nextcloud instances, called "Storage Share".

(1/2) Is this the end of #ChatControl ?

Well, not quite, but big news nevertheless!

The Danish govt has told reporters that they plan to drop the Commission's proposed "Detection Orders" (mandates requiring chat and email providers to scan people's private communications, even if it breaks end-to-end encryption), due to a lack of political support.

Having previously been fierce proponents of encryption-breaking mass scanning, this is a big change from Denmark.

However, it DOESN'T mean....

@itsfoss Huh, I had no idea there was an ISO standard for AI development.

@accountwithnoname @noelreports Not sure, I only understood a lot of "пидорасы ебане".

@noelreports Are the mines supposed to:
1. detonate when Shahed hits its target,
2. be scattered around when Shahed hits its target,
3. make it harder to deal with Shaheds downed by air defence?

@eff Why can't we have a non-profit publisher? WikiScience, if you will? I mean people are already doing reviews for free, might as well do them for a nonprofit. What are the issues with my idea? What's the barrier to entry into publishing? You mention platformization, but what kind of platforms are used in science and how are they connected to publishers?

@EUCommission Please let's pick proposals aimed at teaching media literacy en masse and not some one-time in-person workshops.

@TimWardCam @EUCommission Yeah, 30 times is insanely low.

I don't think many clothes actually disintegrate this fast, I suspect it refers to people who buy new clothes and then keep them for years in the wardrobe, never actually wearing them.

Ukrainian police released the first moments after a Russian drone strike hit a kindergarten in Kharkiv.

Thanks to the teachers who swiftly reacted to the air raid alert, all children were in the shelter, preventing more tragedy.
