@smlx4 allt fler verkar ha kommit över det, tyvärr.
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/sep/05/berlin-neofascism-berliners
"[...] in recent months we’ve been able to observe a higher and bolder presence of fascists in the German public sphere, especially among young adults. Pride marches in east German cities have been attacked by neo-Nazis, and a rephrased version of Gigi D’Agostino’s pop song L’Amour Toujours went viral and was chanted in clubs all over the country with the neo-Nazi slogan “Germany for the Germans, foreigners out” (“Deutschland den Deutschen, Ausländer raus”)."
@smlx4 när sa hon det?
Look closely and you can make out a dewy #spiderweb I spotted on my way to work this morning. #ShotOnLibrem5

Really @ngisargasso, do I have to subscribe to your news letter through LinkedIn. What about #DigitalSovereignty?
See there:

In Swedish, E-identification, FOSS
@Jonas_Bostrom tack, kan du ge något exempel på vad det skulle kunna handla om? @landetannien
@nilesh heh, "somewhere in the fine print", yes I guess that would be the place where you put things that you know poeople would not really agree to if they understood what it meant 😬
@landetannien jag håller med, det är motsägelsefullt, och oklart vad poängen är med att saker som SJ och liknande gjorts om till "bolag". Nackdelarna är ju uppenbara, alltså det är ju inget riktigt bolag egentligen, det blir oklart vad det så kallade "bolaget" ska göra och varför. Finns det några fördelar, har någonting blivit bättre av att SJ mm gjorts om till bolag?
@janvlug at least for me, in GNOME Maps on a desktop computer (big screen), if I make it show a route then in the bottom-right corner of the screen it says "itineraries provided by" followed by the name of some org. or company or something, from where the itinerary information comes. Then I guess that may be the right place so report issues.
But I don't understand why it works in some places and not others. For me it only seems to work in Sweden, not in the Netherlands, for example. Why?

I'm using a #Librem5 as my daily phone. Yesterday, I discovered that in the #Railway #GNOME app for public transportation planning, you can set #transitous as the routing engine. This works pretty well in the #Netherlands. Highly recommended. Of course you can install it also on your regular Linux computer.
@raiderrobert the dirtier the better?

I have a reason which I think is a good one: JavaScript undermines the idea of free software, since if I visit a website that uses Javascript then that means some program runs on my computer and someone else decides what it does, and it may do something entirely different the next time I visit the same website. I want to be in control of what runs on my computer, so I don't like JavaScript.
@mastodonmigration I see now that @noybeu posted about it here https://mastodon.social/@noybeu/112949098191472419

When he’s not busy being one of our best fiction writers, Ted Chiang has become our best critic of generative AI:
“The programmer Simon Willison has described the training for large language models as ‘money laundering for copyrighted data,’ which I find a useful way to think about the appeal of generative-A.I. programs: they let you engage in something like plagiarism, but there’s no guilt associated with it because it’s not clear even to you that you’re copying.”

@mastodonmigration in what specific way(s) is Musk breaking GDPR laws? @bullivant
