'Europe Must Ban American Big Tech and Create a European Silicon Valley'
  • In my opinion, the only way to protect our European values is to ban all American technology in Europe within five years, not only for consumers but also for government authorities and companies.

    Okay, but it doesn't seem like the EU will have the pacing or the drive to apply this. There has been serious backlash over Dutch government agencies switching to US tech, but the orders have been put in and they're not rolling them back.

  • Beware games like this
  • I did this with Garry's Mod, writing gamemodes and occasionally testing if it works.

    Back before GMod 11 the game startup time was atrocious, so I just kept it running.

    But in the end, it was about 5k hours

  • If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?
  • As a Dutchie, I was amazed at the night trains in Sweden and Finland.

    Especially Finland was crazy: 92 eur for two in a private sleeper to get from Helsinki to Lapland (with interrail) is nothing compared to a seat in the sleeper train from Amsterdam to Vienna (50+ eur p.p. for a six person dorm).

    Although coming back it's weird that we whine about the Dutch railroads. Those are crazy reliable, I must never realised.

  • Journalists Just Roasted Sam Altman To His Face
  • We're talking about OpenAI, and the same Altman that has shown his allegiance to the orange fascist. I don't think a NYT claim is going to change OAI exposing vulnerable groups to the government.

  • Trump Team Has Full Meltdown Over CNN Story on ICE-Tracking App
  • It's not about the store, it's about the notification.

    As mentioned in the Time article:

    the app is not available on Android because it "requires a device ID in order to send push notifications, which requires a user account and a password."

  • Limit new car dimensions by 2035: proposal from civil society to the EU
  • What's the law that gets rid of large SUVs but keeps station wagons? Or is the law just going to get rid of all larger cars?

    We've had station wagons for a very long time now. A big Ford Mondeo we had was a relatively low car, without an enormous bonnet.

    Cars continue to get wider, longer and higher off the ground (there's this Kia that looks like you're driving around in a fridge), whilst the stuff we move within them isn't exactly increasing. it's just bigger for the sake of being bigger, and that's causing issues in the streets.

  • Only $50?
  • but hollywood movies make it seem like people still inevitably sleep in the bed naked anyway

    As is customary, Hollywood is lying to you. You don't fuck and be merry and fall asleep. The ladies usually go pee afterwards (helps for everyone to prevent uti) and with creampies a shower after is basically essential.

    Replacing the sheets depends on how dirty they got, but it can usually wait till next morning. Sex is pretty exhausting and we are all a little lazy.
