The fediverse is approximately the part of the Internet that is least in need of anyone actively backing it up.
After all, all messages here are copied to many servers, each of them already serves as a backup. One more backup doesn’t make much of a difference.
More generally I think this https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/moderation-is-different-from-censorship is a good way to think about things like this.
In Österreich übrigens auch. Ist das in Deutschland wirklich etwas, woran man Leute erinnern muss? Bei uns nimmt sich eine überwältigende Mehrheit aller Leute am Freitag einen Urlaubstag, viele davon machen da auch Kurzurlaube.
!microblogmemes@lemmy.world würde ganz gut passen, denke ich?
Ich selbst bin ein Unterstützer der Freie-Software-Bewegung und habe nichts gegen Digitalzwang, solange alle Software, die man dafür braucht, die Kriterien freier Software erfüllt.
Ich denke, derstandard.at erlaubt unter allen Artikeln grundsätzlich Kommentare? Kann mich nicht erinnern, ein Gegenbeispiel gesehen zu haben. Dass deren Moderation oft völlig unsinnig ist, ist eine andere Sache.
… und das hier ist ja auch ein Kommentarabschnitt, insofern scheinst du eine sehr positive Meinung zu dem zu haben, was du hier verwendest?!
Hier in Österreich ist es seit jeher so, dass Tabakprodukte nicht in normalen Supermärkten verkauft werden, sondern nur/vor allem in sogenannten “Trafiken” (oder “Tabaktrafiken”). Jedes Mal, wenn ich nach Deutschland reise, bin ich darüber fasziniert, dass man dort Zigaretten in ganz normalen Supermärkten bekommt.
Ich denke nicht, dass das den Tabakkonsum gesenkt hat? Ist nicht Österreich eines der Länder mit dem höchsten Tabakkonsum pro Kopf auf der ganzen Welt?
Well, ok, if all OP wanted to know is what a copyright license is:
By default, copyright law in most countries prohibits anyone except the author or other copyright holder from distributing creative works, including software, even in modified form. There are a few exceptions to this, but this is the general rule.
A license is a document that the copyright holder agreed to that grants someone permission to do so anyway.
In the context of open source, such a license needs to meet certain conditions to be considered open source. Among other things it needs to allow anyone (not just specific licensees) to distribute the software for any purpose, even in modified form.
Das klingt ungefähr so wie die Bundespräsidentenwahl 2016 in Österreich. Das war eine Stichwahl, im ersten Wahlgang hat der FPÖ-Kandidat (äquivalent zur AfD) Norbert Hofer 35% bekommen, dahinter der grüne Kandidat Alexander Van der Bellen 21%.
Stichwahl: Hofer 46%, Van der Bellen fast 54%.
Bei einer Wahl zu einem einzigen Amt verursacht eine solche Konstellation keine praktischen Probleme. In einem Parlament mit Verhältniswahl schon, da sollen dann alle Parteien gegen die AfD bzw. FPÖ koalieren …?
Alcohol damages the body, phones definitely don’t do that.
I remember being a child and early teenager before anyone I knew had mobile Internet. Many of us engaged in highly disruptive behavior, including behavior harmful to others, when bored.
Researchers believe that the students, especially younger ones, may have turned to more disruptive behavior when they no longer had access to their phones.
Yeah, no shit? Phones tend to serve as a distraction that kills boredom; disruptive behavior is frequently (maybe usually) the result of boredom.
“One conjecture is that this resembles, to some degree, withdrawal symptoms,” he said. “Students are unhappy and disruptive the moment their phones are taken away.”
They’re understandably bored and then, understandably, try to kill their boredom in other, more disruptive ways. I for one very much prefer students being on their phones (or other devices) to beating each other up, damaging property, or insulting each other in psychologically damaging ways out of boredom! No idea what about this is supposed to resemble withdrawal symptoms.
The sub is called “no stupid questions”, not “completely unclear questions”. I genuinely have no idea what you want to know. 🤨
Laws that you cannot enforce without looking at people’s private communications are, in my mind, very likely to be laws that should probably not exist anyway in a free society. Crimes that actually harmed another person have, you know, a victim who can testify to the police or in court that the crime happened, and if you have that, what do you need to look at encrypted communications for?
The National Assembly killed it, with the Macronist deputies, the left, and even the Rassemblement National voting it down.
huh, at least one good thing happening somewhere in the world
“without exaggeration”
The main question I have is this: is it going to be replaced by something better (such as federated services)?
Or will this just mean the Internet as a whole will lose lots of users? That, I think, wouldn’t be desirable. Whatever one may think of Meta, they’ve definitely done a lot to popularize the Internet as a mainstream technology, which by itself is a good thing, though if they use Meta platforms, it ought to be only the first step.
I use Arch speak Esperanto btw
Yes, of course I’m talking about spoken language. Of course if English were written in kanji we would need fewer characters to express the same information, but it wouldn’t change the spoken language at all.
(I remember learning the following graphical user interface design rule: switch your application to Spanish or Portuguese to check whether UI messages still fit in the boxes you’ve put them in. Spanish and Portuguese are the common languages that need the most characters per unit of information.)
Yes and I’ve previously said that that is suboptimal here: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/37873695/18832839
