Both have their own instances: https://social.bund.de and https://social.network.europa.eu

No, it's probably refering to what happened after his death: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Benito_Mussolini#Piazzale_Loreto

The reason sites all have the cookie permission dialog now is because of the GDPR, which has the right idea on data privacy, but the implementation wound up being so terrible that it winds up doing this.

GDPR is not at fault here though, since it does not require asking for consent if the processed data is necessary for the purpose of the provided service. For example, a web shop usually wouldn't have to ask for permission to store items in the shopping part because that is a necessary part of the online shopping process. In that sense, requiring the consent dialog for all unnecessary purposes is better as you can at least see who's trying to screw you over. Don't kill the messenger here.

I think it's also important to remember that websites can only get away with these annoyances because it a) is easily automatable and b) has been the default mode of operation for decades. If restaurant waiters today started asking guests if they could sell info on what and when you ate, who you were with, and what you looked like, everyone would be creeped out. Before GDPR, it was pretty much normalized to do the same thing on the internet without even asking for consent.

Matrix is also decentralized/federated, has encryption integrated into the protocol and enjoys a broad adoption and public support. It also has pretty good integration of bots and even other message protocol services like IRC via "bridges". The chat clients are pretty good too; Element is pretty much available for every platform but there's other one's which are more focussed on Desktop or mobile usage, depending on how you primarily use it.

Nennt sich Horse-Race-Berichterstattung.

Left-wing does not necessarily imply a centralized or planned economy.

Mal ganz abgesehen von den üblichen Beschwerden des Fleischgewerbes hier, scheint sich die Debatte doch weiterentwickelt zu haben. Vor 10 Jahren gab's noch Diskussionen über den (freiwilligen) Veggie-Day in Kantinen. Da wäre der Kirchentag von der BILD zerrupft worden. Heutzutage scheint das besser anzukommen. Mal sehen, ob wir demnächst die Forderung nach Fleisch-Days sehen :)

True, although that's not just limited to "China". Basically every country is treated as a homogenous block of people which is not that great for discussions.

Tor is an application and technically doesn't even has much to do with Linux itself, except that it also runs on it. Where you using a guide for installing and if so which one?

Explore, Expand, Exploit, Exterminate, and Twitter obviously

Wait until you learn that PDFs support embedded Javascript.

Naja wohl eher schlecht durchgeführt. Die Idee von Lemmy fanden damals schon viele gut. Gab aber viel mehr Hindernisse als heute:

• Lemmy war noch in einem sehr frühen Entwicklungsstadium und konnte z.B. noch gar keine Föderation
• Die größte Usergruppe auf Lemmy waren Tankies, die man auch wegen fehlender anderer Instanzen ständig zu Gesicht bekam.
• Dachschaden war auch auf Reddit noch viel kleiner und die Interaktion auf Lemmy entsprechend noch viel weniger. Dementsprechend war auch nie was los da. Ich glaub die ersten drei Posts in c/aufmuepfig hatten mehr Interaktion als dachschaden auf Lemmy in einem Jahr.

Mit Easterhegg und Gulaschorogrammiernacht gibt es sowas ja schon. Das Problem ist eher, das alles organisiert zu bekommen.

Auf join-lemmy kann sich aber jeder mit nem Pull Request hinzufügen: https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site .

Das was du siehst ist außerdem abhängig davon, von du die Seite aufrufst. Bei mir sind feddit.de und discuss.tchncs.de ganz oben.

It had, but it was removed about two years ago in release 0.14.0 with the introduction of proper mod tools.

Gestartet wurde es glaub ich von jemandem aus r/asozialesnetzwerk. Aber in r/dachschaden gab's auch nen Post dazu, also ist es wahrscheinlich eine Mischung aus beiden Subreddits.

Franz von Papen Moment

I think that has been confirmed as a bug and will be fixed next release.

the nerds on here will probably get it quickly ;)

Very insightful look into the mechanisms of minimalist design and their shortcomings.

Minimalism as a design trend dates back to the beginning of the last century, but you might have noticed that companies have extensively used minimalist principles in their product design in the past few years. Apple is especially known for this, but you see it everywhere nowadays. Cars, fridges, TVs... they are all stripped of any extravagant design features: fewer buttons, no ornaments, single colors, and so on. Even if you are not designer, you have probably noticed that in some way.
