Announcing OpenLemmyStats.org: Publicly Queryable Vote History + Other Hidden Data for Any Lemmy User!

And any EU citizen could proceed to sue the shit out of you and anyone who uses that data, based on GDPR. Especially, once you not only collect it, but also run any kind of inference on it.
Would be interesting to see where that ends. Once you start selling it, you act as some kind of company/have commercial interest and thereby clearly fall under GDPR. If they've never given their consent to your data processing, it would be best if your servers stand on some offshore oil rig and your bank account is somewhere on the Bahamas I guess...

'Unbelievable': Astronomer Claims 'Direct Evidence' of Gravity Breaking Down

Reply in thread

Thought exactly the same before I read the article to the end. But they are very differentiated in interpreting their discovery and clearly point of that their findings only make better predictions for very specific cases. They explicitly also explain what cases stay unaffected. The title is of course totally misleading, gravity is not breaking down. But to anyone with an inkling of physics, the message 'we found phenomena on a stellar scale that defy explanation by general relativity" is not far behind and would actually be true :)

A Just Society

The fact that you're right does not mean that this theory is flawed... But is a depressing fact for the state our global society is in.
Do you know of any society where this would not be the case?

Are artists and creators not welcome in this community?

Reply in thread

Couldn't agree more. You throw a street musician a coin in their hat when you walk past, and I think the same is only fair on the web. You make good art, something I enjoy and want to see more of, I make a small donation to you (which I like a lot better than having 'sponsored by evil corporation' written left, right and across your picture)

What are you riding?

Riese and Müller Xdelite (mountainbike fully that makes 45km/h and has a belt drive + gearless transmission).
Go 28km to work on it one way, takes a bit less than an hour and thereby kills public transport and car both.
It's from 2018 and pretty loud by now but I like it.
