Isn’t that a sign the pizza is too big? Never seen these things before…

I’m adding the ones I have to home assistant, which is what I was planning all along. Maybe add some other brand smart lights, not sure yet which

Awesome timing, was about to add a whole lot of them to my new house, guess that ain’t happening

Never thought I would be of use in the military, guess I have been training all along

No, the issue is not cars, the issue is governments allowing, or actively pushing these companies to mass surveillance on a wide scale. This goes beyond the car. Children born today will never experience Privacy.

This indeed, it is quite easy to scan video feeds of the interior camera and determine these characteristics, as well as link them to social media scraping to find your preferences. Scary AF

“But I cannot leave Facebook, I will miss out on what everyone is faking in their miserable lives” /s

Strange thing is that they are not even valuing their own privacy. Adding “backdoors” to E2E encryption, or whatever that means, will also impact them. If a backdoor exists, malicious parties will find and exploit it. Legislators own messages, videos, photos and other media will no longer be safe either

Thanks for the insight!

No clue, I’m a Dutch citizen. Do your require to do an iris scan to get a passport in the USA? Might be covered there.

Its been here for decades. It was already mandatory to provide an iris scan upon arrival in the US back when I visited New York in 2013. At the time, I was already baffled it was a requirement and wasn’t happy, but at that moment there is nothing else to do then comply. The US probably has a very big iris scan, fingerprint and passport database of at least the western world.

Glad to see that the bullshit jobs are replaced first!

Its Raccoons, 100% raccoons

The whole point of an UFO is that it is unidentified. I don’t get how people instantly think that the aircraft is alien…

To be honest, a lot of it is auto pilot anyways

Funny thing is that in our “regional delivery center” in Romania, most developers are woman, and CS is a very desirable study for woman there

It will be difficult to switch my friend groups again, now that they are finally on Signal

I don’t want it to turn into Telegram, just give me a lightweight, secure and privacy focused messaging app.

It won’t, because AI will generate based on existing content, but will not make something new

But of course. In the same way that you don’t make a test easier for the student that gets bullied.
The criteria and rules to enter the EU have been created through decades of small changes, ensuring that every element in our norms and values is covered. Skipping some of these steps will only result in further misalignment in the future, causing friction. Look for example at Hungary. I am not sure if they took this train of thought/direction recently or if their stance towards the EU was always like this, but if it is the latter, then the EU failed to judge that in the joining process.

My personal take on this is that the EU has already become too big. It used to be small at first, with countries that shared similar beliefs and culture. I think the EU today is way too polarized to be effective. Sure, it is now bigger on the world stage, making a larger fist for our policies. But has also become more difficult to draft policies, due to the cultural and economic differences of its members.
