It misses the most important information: why.

The CNIL (French privacy regulator) slapped Discord in October last year because they never deleted accounts (hi GDPR).

Since then, all tech companies are hurriedly designing a plan to mass delete inactive accounts.

Price is a thing, but having the option to chose is definitely good.

Now comes the real question: do you really trust the Zuck to implement a "do not share/sell anything" policy ? 'Cause yeah, if I'm paying, I'm expecting that none of my data is being sold/processed/transmitted to another company. Paying to just remove ads is .. pointless.

Germany is shit for Internet connections...

Expensive and slow...

2 main reasons in my view:

• windows is the de facto standard for desktop ans users management. So each corp has at least one guy used to the interface to dofirst-level debug
• windows comes with support, not linux. So corps don't want to employe one Linux admin "just in case". That's the main reason I keep hearing from sysadmins I know

No, Lemmy servers are not exempt from GDPR compliance. The household exemption (you are not subject to gdpr for private activities) only applies for purely personnal activities. As soon as a service is offered to someone else, the exemption is no more applicable.

That's one of the drawback about open-source projects, they are designed to fulfill a need (persistent storage & decentralised communication for Lemmy), and no one give a f*ck about legalities.

Encryption will not protect your privacy in the specific case of Dropbox.

They look into your activity, not files.

And that's pretty much standard for any kind of commercial SaaS, just because of security concerns.

Also, they are quite transparent about the provider they are using for internal activities (Stripe, etc.). Companies in EU will typically not disclose such information. For example, Dropbox disclose the use of AWS (for hosting the infra & code, I guess), whereas Proton does not disclose any hosting company.

I’m not so sure about the GDPR status for the Fediverse, I don’t think there’s the law is prepared for “Jerry runs this for people, just for fun”. It’s very much “official organisation” or “money grabbing business” oriented. Someone should fund an actual lawyer to look into this and lay down the real requirements.

I'm working in the gdpr compiance field ;) Using a personnal device to monitor public space doesn't fall under the household exception, this solution even pre-dates the GDPR (https://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/docs/application/pdf/2014-12/cp140175en.pdf).

(the case-law is about camera fixed on a private house, but the logic easily translates in a private server grabbing public data).

but when legal compliance comes up, everybody just sticks their fingers in their ears and pretends not to hear you.

Just as you did ^^

Commonly refered by the sailors as "one spouse in each port"

Tried the quiz. First question: an app request access to data, what do you do?

• allow all
• allow nothing and uninstall
• all strictly what is necessary (e.g. location for Uber)

Boy, first question and you already fuck up.. Never heard about the concept of address?

It's rather the other way around, Word is not 1 to 1 compatible with LibreOffice Writer when it comes to document editing. Writer is far better on that aspect.

Après, le métro de Rennes..

2 lignes, dont aucune ne franchit la rocade. Et qui s'arrête 500m avant l'aéroport.

C'est sympa qu'il existe, mais de là à dire que c'est un système de TEC complet... Et les bus c'est pas mieux, tous vont au centre-ville. Dès que tu veux faire un trajet transversal, tu peux laisser tomber les TEC.

Mais c'est certain, c'est déjà mieux que le néant américain.

Probable course of action is MSFT implementing a hotfix in the next 3-6 months, that will be nowhere near to address the topic.

Another 2 years of EDPS investigation.

Then MSFT will release another patch 3-6 months after that actually solves the issue.

But in the meantime, they would have implemented another mechanism to spy on users.

Rince and repeat.

Le Monde Diplo est déjà dans le turfu.

Plus sérieusement, graphique interessant. Je ne savais pas que le National Geographic était sous pavillon français.

By definition, Jedis are doing the Good.

But be it in movies, books or comics, I never came accross any mention of working hours or PTO.

They have unionize.

OP soulève un très bon point, la lecture orientée de concepts universalistes, et c'est inquiétant de voir à quel point il se fait descendre ou moquer.

La notion de "rascisme", par exemple, consiste à croire que les différences culturelles sont insurmontables. Il n'y a pas de notion de couleur de peau qui entre en ligne de compte, il suffit simplement de croire que le type né de l'autre coté de la rivière/montagne/mer/planète est un con pour ce motif pour être raciste. C'est pas propre à l'Europe/USA ce type de comportement, c'est généralisé à l'ensemble de la planète. Donc venir dire que du racisme à l'encontre d'un groupe de personnes n'existe pas, car ils sont d'une couleur de peau spécifique, tombe exactement dans la définition du racisme 😅.

C'est pareil avec tous les types de discriminations, ce n'est pas parce que la discrimination s'opère au profit du groupe "opprimé" qu'elle en devient acceptable. Ca reste une discrimination.

Et voir une grosse partie de la population cautionner ces agissements me laisse un peu pantois...

Also skimmed it, went to 11 places out of 20. They are worth going to, so I suppose the entire list is worth it. The places are spread across France, so wherever you go you will be close to one.

You know that NAS can go in sleep mode, right? And wake up only when you try to activate them.

But what is the use-case? Only make your holiday films available to a media center? Or do you plan to also use it as a storage for other devices?

In the first case a sbc can do the trick (however can struggle if you share 4k). But I would definitely look into "real" NAS (Synology, qnas, etc.) before using a sbc.

Pour ma part (Allemagne), les enfants vont chez les grands-parents.

La plus grande est en age de se gérer seule (10 ans), elle va donc faire sa vie pendant les prochaines vacance, en restant avec nous.

L'alternative étant de les envoyer dans l'équivalent du centre de loisirs, qui finit au plus tard à 15h00.

Je vais prendre de gros raccourcis, mais pour donner un order d'idée : Il a fallu 3000 tonnes pour envoyer 50 tonnes en orbite de la Lune. Il en faut 4 fois plus pour rejoindre le Soleil (et tomber dedans), soit 12 000 tonnes pour 50 tonnes de masse utile.

Un conteneur à poubelle plein, c'est 300 kg (j'arrondis), donc 167 conteneurs à poubelles (un gros quartier d'habitation) avec une fusée 4 fois plus grosse que Saturn 5.

Si on rentre un peu dans les chiffres, une Saturn 5 (ajustée à l'inflation) coutait 2,6 milliards de $ à lancer. J'arrondis (encore) à 1 milliards, il y a moyen de faire des économies d'échelle si on industrialise la production. Donc 4 milliards $ pour lancer 167 conteneurd d'ordures, je te laisse calculer le cout au sac poubelle.

Best advice. Set your own dns resolver, it's easy.
