  • Thank you I feel less alone! Not sure whether it's a good thing, anyway. In Italy the government is playing the victim and boiling it all down to the plain old argument of "political interferences in judicial councils". They are working on a judicial reform which looks much a retaliation, though, which is a little worrying.

  • I am completely ignorant about Polish politics and honestly I didn't know about the "Poland A" / "Poland B" distinction. This meme made me learn something so thank you 🙏

  • Rather than "bored" I'd say "more concerned with other issues". To some extent it's already happening: war is no more a trendy news and inflation/unemployment/recession/climate are gaining importance. Unless you live in my country where.. uh.. trials involving ministers and public officers take half of the screen time on the news. 🇮🇹🤌🍕 (All forms of "mass distraction")

  • It's on the instance, it happened to me too some hours ago and all of a sudden all clients stopped working (complaining about me not being logged in). One of the workarounds for the hack was actually invalidating all sessions, so maybe we were all logged off. Source: https://lemmy.ml/post/1953164

  • Mi wile e ni: kulupu ni li suli, li wawa, li pona. Mi mute li pali lon kulupu la, wile mi li ken kama lon. [I realize I almost forgot TP. I wanted to say: I hope this community will be big, powerful and good. If we work together, my wish can become true]

  • In Italy the name Mirko, imported from Slavic neighbouring countries, is quite diffused but it's not uncommon to ask «Do you spell it with a c or with a k?» because the k letter is not normally used in Italian spelling. To which the answer is often (joking) «Obviously with a k otherwise it would be a circus» due to the fact that Mirko and circo sound very similar in our language.

  • How absolutely delightful it was to review PRs on that web console. And how easy and straightforward it was to setup notifications when the state of a PR changed (e.g. to configure an SNS topic triggered on the repository event with an email endpoint subscribed to it). It was last year. I don't work there any more.

  • I totally relate to this. I didn't like the environment on R*ddit, but here people are much nicer, so the addiction is even worse!

  • Even "less sh*tty" is a valid criterion, though! I totally agree with your idea about the "illusion of choice", but it doesn't depend on the number of parties. With many smaller parties it would be even worse, since after the elections nobody has the majority and they have to create (to say as much politely as possible) "original" coalitions to rule a government which in the end is useless because most decisions are supranational.

  • Questa è sicuramente una buona notizia! Tra l'altro, non sapevo che avessero reso disponibili le [librerie open source ](https://github.com/DeepLcom] per interrogare le loro API, possono essermi utili in un progetto, alla fine anche con account free c'è una quota che si può utilizzare.

  • Very interesting article, the ideas it offers are very inspiring and should make us reconsider some positions we maybe took (collectively speaking) too in a rush. It's true that we unconsciously use double standards, and some of our politicians missed a chance to be on the right side of history. I wonder how they will be remembered by future generations, it there will be any future generations at all.

  • What a pity! Even better if the pile of banknotes goes on fire by itself due to spontaneous combustion in an overheated environment!

  • Hope you will, really from the bottom of my heart. I am writing from the EU, a region where no matter what we vote we're double tied with what you on the other side of the Atlantic decide. So please be wise next year and think of all the lives that depend on your freedom of choice.

  • Is it only me or does anyone else think something has gone wrong with the EU? Shouldn't it have prevented wars and poverty promoting collaboration and solidarity? Especially for the countries which joined with the 2007 expansion like the ones mentioned in the post, I think their expectations were utterly "betrayed".

  • A similar article on The Verge reports basically the same news. I would like to hear people's opinion on that.

  • Surrogacy and, in general, parenthood by LGBT couples is a highly divisive theme where legislation should be extremely cautious since no long-term impacts are available and there is no evidence that they have a positive effect on society. Nonetheless, using them against minorities to justify extreme right wing propaganda and unite against a "common enemy" doesn't do any good either (and in this case there is clear evidence of where this is leading). I wonder what would happen if LGBT people stopped paying taxes and/or care about their societal duties since they don't have equal rights.

  • Nell'ultima mezz'ora c'è stata ancora attività su quella issue su GitHub (tutt'ora aperta) e sembra che il problema riguardi le custom emoji, non la sidebar. Il bug riguarda solo il frontend web e con una validazione lato client dovrebbe essere risolto, tuttavia non vedo ancora nuove versioni della lemmy-ui. C'è però una procedura di recovery documentata qualora dovessero verificarsi problemi.

  • Reminds me of the good ol' times wiping a tear of nostalgia running down my cheek

  • Be it for economic reasons, be it for any other reason this is really good news! Kudos to Greece and to all Greek people. My country, Italy, is still below 1% as of June 2023 according to statcounter so there's still a lot of work to do! Seeing Linux as an option to bring back to life second hand or old hardware, preventing wastes and promoting circular economy is an idea I really like.
