Silicone soaked fabric is sometimes used for tents, but I guess that wouldn’t be biodegradable then.

Hast du da eine Quelle für das Google involviert ist? Würde ja eigendlich der Grundannahme wiedersprechen das man weniger von US Anbietern abhängig sein will.

That makes about as much sense as “anarcho-capitalism”. Of course it’s no fun to have your mental gymnastics questioned outside of Hexbear 😅

But ok, for the sake of argument, maybe a dysfunctional late-stage AES is a more suitable ground for building something in the shell of the old. At least people in these states know from first hand experience just how bad state control can get.

Edit: curious that you left out China in your list of AES.

Naja, mag ja sein das es in Einzelfällen etwas komplizierter ist, aber verglichen mit den sonstigen Einschränkungen wie Zugausfällen und Überfüllung ist “an diesem einzelnen Halt können wir im Wagen 1&2 leider nicht die Türen öffnen” ja wohl das geringere Problem.

Ich will jetzt nicht schlecht über Bahnmitarbeiter sprechen (der Fisch stinkt vor allem vom Kopf), aber Dienst streng nach Vorschrift ist da doch leider auch sehr weit verbreitet.

No, as only the instance admin that hosts the original account can indirectly associate a user handle with actual “personal data”. An admin of a federated instance can not, as they do not have any “personal data” to correlate it with.

If a user themselves posts “personal data” publicly it is not covered by the GDPR (IANAL) and thus not subject to mandatory deletion requests. Of course deleting everything is often the easiest course of action, but this is not legally required.

It mostly only effects their own usage to be banned from another server, so why would an instance admin care?

Lemmy doesn’t federate “personal data” to other servers. The GDPR has a strict definition what can be “personal data”. The Wikipedia has a good overview of the relevant laws in various countries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_data

Requesting the deletion of posts and comments that they agreed to be federated when signing up is purely voluntary but usually done as it is fairly easy to ban a user and delete their contributions.

tl;dr: anfangs ein paar Großspenden von deutschen Millionären und ab jetzt staatliche Parteifinanzierung.

I don’t think these people are necessarily “toxic users”, but rather just deluded ones. It’s a bit like that saying about privilege… you only think about it when someone is threatening to take it away.

The asymmetry of effort between moderators and regular participants is what forces this hidden sense of entitlement into the open.

I think this is the root of the “mods are assholes” issue. It’s not that the mods are power tripping. It’s that they are placed in a role that will lead inevitably to toxic behavior, unless someone turns out to be a solid gold saint, which few of us are.

While part of it, I think the bigger issue is that the typical male participant has “main character syndrome”, and when a mod doesn’t want to spend a lot of time with them specifically because they have better things to do, these participants turn to whining about unfair treatment, when in reality it is just their overinflated sense of entitlement.

Damit Züge mit mehr Wagen fahren können, müssten auf einigen Bahnhöfen Bahnsteige verlängert werden, gab Michael Wedel vom Fahrgastverband zu bedenken. Die Erfahrung zeigt, dass solche Projekte in Deutschland bis zu zehn Jahre dauern können. Wie langwierig sie sein können, zeigt sich gerade auf der Linie RE1. Dort sollen nach dem Fahrplanwechsel Ende 2026 mehr achtteilige Züge verkehren. Damit sie an allen vorgesehenen Bahnhöfen halten können, muss DB InfraGo aber weitere Bahnsteige verlängern. Doch für Groß Kreutz, Götz und Briesen wird das voraussichtlich erst 2028 der Fall sein, hieß es bei der ODEG.

Das ist mal wieder ein Schildbürgerstreich… einfach im Sommer temporäre Verlängerungen aus Holz oder so bauen. Wenn man wollte ginge das problemlos.

The amount of 50.x Vs. 49.x votes lately is too damn high.

Ugh, what a shit article. It mentions exactly one model, a Dacia, that has been already on the market for some time, and a Renault prototype coming maybe in 2026. There is nothing like what the headline suggests as far as I can tell.

It is important to note that these are western European workers. For them the Chinese competition is largely irrellevant as their companies have been moving production to eastern Europe for a while now and they realize that their problem is structural.

All what the trariffs on Chinese EVs will do is conserve the status quo for European car makers a few more years, which doesn’t help western European workers at all.

Social democrats do not code as “right” anywhere in the world.

Except in Portugal, where the conservative party calls themselves Social Democrats.

Any pc with two network ports and Ipfire will do. Easy to set up and configure.

Says the person who doesn’t watch the full video because it apparently doesn’t fit into their ideological world view…

Well, if you only watch the beginning how can you assume it is the “full picture”.

But besides it being not the full argument, the video is largely about how the counter arguments and economic models used to inform governments are even less the “full picture”.

Maybe comments are counted as posts too?

No Sharkey/Misskey is more like Mastodon, but with more playful features like emoji reactions and animated text.

Threads is not included, but Mastodon had a lot more Twitter refugees.
