I love that Americas answer to GDPR was to simply geo block europe so when I need to get all my vaccination records for the doctor I can't login to the medical portal.

Good old European superiority kicking in. How many of the universal healthcare systems have seen significant improvements or necessary overhauls in the last 20 years? Germany’s system is incredibly dysfunctional and has been for quite some time.
This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

I've written so many bash scripts to replace bad logic in ci tooling that I should just combine it all and launch my own CI startup.

One thing I still cannot understand after living in Germany for 12 years is the fact that all your vaccinations are tracked in a tiny paper booklet that you absolutely cannot lose.

Also techbros who think everyone is using a device from the last two years.

This quote skeet brought to you by my 2015 MacBook Pro that even with Linux is having to cry as it renders bloated websites.
My favourite thing about American techbros is they think everywhere is like America in terms of infrastructure and if it isn't well then that's just too fucking bad isn't it

This subskeet brought to you by shit Australian internet that won't fucking load the replies on this fucking website

Link was banned for making a seemingly off the cuff joke that was clearly not inciting violence. Really shameful that you didn’t reinstate him @safety.bsky.app @moderation.bsky.app. Embarrassing for you, especially with the amount of accusations of racism you’ve had.
“As a neurodiversity advocate and as an autistic person, I’m really grateful for so much of the work that’s been done that allows me to be myself and to be successful being myself.” Link, who has been *banned*!?!? from this platform?

When trump started disregarding the law we started looking at what are options for a non us provider was to migrate to and the options were incredibly slim.
It’s so consolidated that anything not strictly compute is virtually non existent.
In short, the problem here is not that Signal ‘chose’ to run on AWS. The problem is the concentration of power in the infrastructure space that means there isn’t really another choice: the entire stack, practically speaking, is owned by 3-4 players. 11/

🚨 IT'S FINALLY PUBLIC 🚨

I am very, very, very proud of this launch and am so excited to finally share it with everyone! @roost.tools has worked with OpenAI over the past few months to open source a reasoning model that is fine-tuned for Trust & Safety use cases.
Excited to announce here at the @parispeaceforum.bsky.social that, after months of joint technical work together, OpenAI will open source through ROOST one of its main internal models that handles detection and moderation. This will allow anyone or any company to use, test, and study the model.
