Maybe you are confusing this with the news from a year ago that Steam doesn't support Windows 7 and 8 anymore?
By the way MS-support for 7 ended in 2015, so that's 9 more years of Steam support after updates from MS stopped. I'd count on Steam working on Windows 10 for years to come.
Well if anything breaks I suspect my add/script blockers first and in like 9/10 cases that's correct. Had turned fingerprinting resistance on since making that comment three weeks ago, and so far I didn't run into any problems beyond theming. Although I admittedly only frequent a small set of websites.
Once saw a (German) documentary about this building. They have drop-off places on the ground floor where delivery drivers leave their goods in locked boxes. Payment and and locking/unlocking of the box is done digitally through phone.
In patients with H[eart]F[ailure], influenza vaccination was associated with a reduced risk of both all-cause and cardiovascular death after extensive adjustment for confounders. Frequent vaccination and vaccination earlier in the year were associated with larger reductions in the risk of death compared with intermittent and late vaccination.
I found this in about:config, defaults to true apparently: privacy.resistFingerprinting.randomDataOnCanvasExtract
But you have to enable privacy.resistFingerprinting for it to work first. I enabled that and now the EFF test says "randomized" for the hashes but also Lemmy went from dark to light theme somehow.
Again if you want to see it like that, fine. Doesn't change the fact that people from these countries mean something different than you when they say inciting violence is outlawed. They are obviously referring to their specific laws, that use that specific language, in this case verbatim. The "oh but there are conditionals in that law" bit you are doing here isn't the gotcha you seem to think it is. We are aware of that. And it's not relevant to the original question of there being potential legal consequences for the people hosting the lemmy world instance. So what is even your point?
Look if you want to apply an overly broad definition of violent speech to score some weird semantic point, be my guest. But the original point upthread was that incitement to violence specifically, not "violent speech" in general, is outlawed in many countries, among them those that are hosting the .world instance. And that point is very much correct.
Which is all beside my original point, which was that the §130 StGB does not work like you boldly claimed it does.
What? You have just been given two example paragraphs that create a legal responsibility for the German executive to shut down violent speech. Yes, only certain kinds of violent speech as you put it in the sibling thread, but that still falsifies this statement.
What the fuck does that have to do with CEOs being a designated group or not?
But to answer your question, it depends. Specifically if you advocate for "arbitrary measures" against criminals and do it "in a manner likely to disturb the public peace" then it would be illegal under §130 StGB. Barring this caveat though it would be legal.
CEOs aren’t a designated group, they’re a voluntary group.
Oh don't pretend you know what you are talking about. The German text says "vorbezeichneten Gruppe", for which an alternative translation is "aforementioned group". So the designated groups are "national, racial, religious or ethnic group[s]". So yeah, CEOs aren't a designated group, but not for the reason you pulled out of your ass.
I moved into one recently and the the process was pretty much like any other flat I rented before. You apply, get invited to visit the flat, you say yes or no, they say yes or no, done. The only difference was that instead of a deposit I was paying for shares of the cooperative. Maybe it's different in smaller towns though, this was in a university town.
Of course, Alabama school, it’s entirely possible that the lesson was complete nonsense.
Nah, from a solely US perspective it's correct. There were ~1.6 million military casualties in the civil war, and ~1.07 million in WW2. But there were a few more parties involved in WW2, so it's kind of weird to frame it as less bloody. If you include civilians, estimates range from 70 to 85 million dead worldwide (not including the >20 million wounded soldiers and unknown number of wounded civilians).
Well for lack of a better comparison, it's kind of like a Trump rally. Not quite, of course, the style Trump applies is tailored to the current American sensibilities, with his silly little dances and whatnot. But the way he wields anger and hate and "patriotism" to get a rise out of the crowd seems very much alike. And yeah, it's sadly undeniable that Hitler had a talent for this. Greater one than Trump maybe.
can’t see how this can possibly be a good thing, you know it will mean funding with conditions.
Well, the things they are funding will get funded? How is that a bad thing?!
The conditions range from very broad, like "fix bugs" (curl), over somewhat specific like "improve cross-platform compatibility and the Linux RNG" (Wireguard), to very specific like "create a test-suite and drive development on the Fediverse account migration functionality" (ActivityPub).
All of these seem to be rather tame conditions that are just there to ensure the funds get used in the way they were intended to be used. And I don't really see how that gives the STF any sort of direct control over these projects, while it gives those projects resources to achieve more than they might have otherwise. There are no long-term funding models that would enable implicit control over these projects.
Can't speak to historic usage, but today "am" (an dem) means "on" or "near", and "im" (in dem) means "in".
So the literal translation would be "lick me in the arse".
