I feel like the luckiest person because I built my last PC right before the crypto hype and my current one right before the AI bubble.

The problem with this specific conflict is that otherwise “reputable” news agencies are just repeating what their sources are saying because they cannot verify the details of what’s actually going on on the ground in Gaza. So you get shaky cellphone footage of some people getting shot and some humanitarian NGOs will publish that civilians are being murdered. A journalist writes an article about it. The Israeli military then publishes a statement that they killed some Hamas official and his henchmen. Another journalist writes an article about it. Both newspapers are usually credible sources that are accepted on Wikipedia. So what do you do? Who is actually right?

15% ist already an insane number considering the size of Reddit’s userbase.

I’m a bit confused by comments on this topic. Do sovereign countries not have the right anymore to decide their own laws and issue punishment when they’re not followed?

Some laws are bullshit and I commend everyone who decides to ignore them.

but if 4chan ignores them, that opens the door for other measures like delisting the site from search engines or blocking access to it from the UK (these two examples are taken from the article)

This has already happened to a number of sites and services, with some voluntarily blocking access from the UK. 4chan’s approach is just a bit different in the way that they are waiting to get blocked instead of doing the blocking themselves. It sucks for citizens from the UK, but they are the ones that put the people in power who created those laws.

Like, to the people saying UK can’t do laws which apply to services which are merely accessible in the UK and have no physical presence there, do you also apply this logic to the GDPR, which works the same way?

This has also been the case already. There are a number of American websites that will just straight up deny you access if you visit them from a EU country. Some even cite GDPR as the reason for being blocked. I don’t think it’s the best solution, but I accept it because I wouldn’t want to visit a site that cannot comply with it anyways.

I know people who were affected when a Windows 10 update just straight up deleted all personal files in 2020.

Nah it has already been allocated to Orban’s private residence.

Probably, but I’m just familiar with Lemmy.

There is no point in making an effort to preserve relations with the US since their clown in chief will just tear down decades of relationships anyways after reading something on Twitter.

I’m sorry but that screenshot absolutely sent me. Beyond hilarious

Personally I just want front turn signals to be visible from the opposite side again

Not sure if I read that correctly, but I don’t think this has ever been the case?

On reddit yes, but on the fediverse it’s mostly the people running the servers.

This is a massive loss for the Fediverse.

No automated updates has be the biggest reason for me.

No but the emergency assistant system is required, and for that you need a cell modem.

I don’t think that it has a cell modem, either

So it’s not coming to Europe then.
