I speak languages.
I’m not against regulation of social media such as TikTok, not because of any percieved foreign control of the narrative, but rather simply because of its harm on individuals (addiction, toxicity, dysmorphia, surveillance capitalism, to name a few things).
Fair point. Maybe they avoid endorsing specific products with which they are unaffiliated? Especially since Mozilla gets most of their funding from Google and promote it as a pinned shortcut and default search engine?
At the same time, the power of the EU is, however indirectly, based on the votes of the people, and if enough people disagree they might just change their minds a little. I guess the best thing you could do, therefore, is to spread the word.
Yes, you’re right, we can’t do a lot. But we can write to the member of the European Parliament who is responsible (Romana Jerković), and we can vote in our national elections and the European one coming up next year, so that’s something.
If you’re not an EU citizen, not much. But if you are a cybersecurity expert, researcher or represent an NGO, you can sign the open letter at https://eidas-open-letter.org.
Nah, pretty sure that is just a (very mild) hallucination because it couldn’t find an actual good example

Well if it weren’t for those “tankie devs” you couldn’t be here. I’d say show some gratitude for their hard work.
100°C is an acceptable sauna temperature. You won’t last much longer naked in 0°C!
Edit: To make my point more clear, I know some crazy people who go directly from a close to 100 degree sauna to a close to 0 degree ice bath. I think that could be described quite well as going from 100 to 0 % within the human temperature tolerance.
Also, that’s not my initial point. My initial point was that “percent hot outside” means nothing in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
(whoops, pressed delete instead of edit)
Well, there is basically only one country that has been too afraid to change from its archaic measurement system to the internationally agreed upon standard.
@Tarastie@lemmy.world already provided a solution: by strapping magnets to the cat, the cat becomes the generator and never has to touch anything
I found it on Wikipedia. At first, he fixed zero at the stable temperature of a “mixture of ice, water, and salis Armoniaci [transl. ammonium chloride]” and 96 at the human body temperature, but later he would change the lower reference point to water’s freezing point at 32 and still later the upper one to the boiling point of water at 212. So it has always been pretty arbitrary.
Edit: But I will agree that the scale of zero to one hundred does correspond more closely to how warm humans feel.
I see. But is zero degrees Fahrenheit based on anything?
Are you just trolling? “100% hot out” literally doesn’t mean anything.
Edit: Ah, I see :P
But the human body temp isn’t 100 °F, though
At least it’s better than !technology@lemmy.world… I wanted to say that !technology@beehaw.org is the best by far but then I realised that they’re not federated with you guys.
Edit: There really should be a technopolitics comm somewhere. I wonder whether people would use it if they knew it existed. It would probably also require some proper moderation in these communities.
