  • Can't be external interference in all of these cases

    I think you severely underestimate the incentives for foreign interference, and how easy that is in the days of social media and bots.

  • As if the kid threw the water for that reason. Maybe the neighbor shouldn’t have let the kid roam? Would fit your logic.

  • The Digital Euro: Decoupling from PayPal, VISA & Mastercard

    Jump

  • From their FAQ:

    Privacy is one of the most important design features of the digital euro.

    The digital euro is designed to be able to function offline in a way that would offer users a cash-like level of privacy, both for sending money to other people and for paying in shops. When paying offline, only the payer and the payee would know the personal transaction details of the payments made.

    For online digital euro payments, privacy would be implemented so that the Eurosystem itself – the issuer and payment infrastructure provider – would not be able to directly connect transactions to specific individuals.

  • If they handle personal data of EU citizens, they need to comply with GDPR.

    Now, what’s gonna happen if they don’t? I don’t know what mechanics are in place to deal with that.

  • I’m trying to avoid any kind of sweetener.

  • Yes. I translated a Swedish recipe and didn’t reflect on the measurements. They use dl for everything here (and I‘d very much prefer weight instead on volume for most things… sigh)

  • Why most countries are struggling to shut down 2G

    Jump

  • Here at least it’s more connected devices, like the emergency call option in elevators or cars. I was considering getting a used car made in 2023 with 2G/3G and just happened to learn about the shutdown in time before I sealed the deal.

    But the timeline planned here in Sweden is a bit insane: only by 2026 must new car models use 4G/5G. 2027 is when they expect to fully shut down 2G. This makes no sense for devices that have a long life span.

  • Do you want to buy a European car? Here is a comprehensive list of the origins of all brands.

    Jump

  • Which of the cars are actually produced in Europe? I would love a list with that.

    I can start with a single entry I know of:

    • Renault 5 - fully produced in France, including the battery

  • I’m in Sweden too. I was considering buying a used car made in 2023. It uses 2G/3G. It has some connected services I actually wanted to use. And well, the ecall obviously. It’s really not an old car yet, but it becomes obsolete already.

    On the manufacturer’s website they say that new car models need to have 4G/5G only by 2026. And starting 2027 all cars sold must have it. 2027 is also when they expect 2G to be fully shut down in the country. This timeline makes no sense for devices with a long life span.

    In the website they also say you wouldn’t fail inspection though. But honestly I don’t care too much about that, since I actually care about ecall and some other connected services.

  • No, but Skype allows to make calls to landlines (and mobile phones).

  • Wait, which car models lack that for “hazard warning lights, indicators, windshield wipers, SOS calls, and the horn”?

    Don’t get me wrong, I agree these need physical buttons or similar. But everyone is celebrating as if it’s for things I’ve seen hidden behind touch or capacitive buttons in the cars I’ve driven and that really annoy me, like temperature, volume, mute, and cruise control inputs. Or have I just not driven the worst of the worst (Tesla).

  • Well, I have family that is old enough not to manage to use WhatsApp. They have a smartphone. WhatsApp is set up. I can never reach them on it.

  • I’ve been using Skype for cheaper international calls to family that still relies on phones instead of video calls etc. I’ll need to check what happens with my credit. Any recommendations for an alternative?
