    I mean... government officials are technically civilians, but...

  • Op was on lemm.ee before moving, his contributions aren’t a recent thing.

    Ah, I see - do you just happen to know them or is there a way to check for this kind of thing?

    If he would be what you call a repost-bot the links would likely be from more random low-quality sources and also wouldn’t be neatly posted to the most relevant community.

    I might be wrong about the nature of the account, that's why I'm asking after all, but I wouldn't agree with that definition at all.What I see here is an account with 264 Posts (8 per day!) and a mere 3 Comments and that just doesn't look like a person interested in engaging with other persons but like an automatism to deliberately pump content into communities - which in turn rings my alarm bells.

  • Enlighten me, fellow community members: This appears to be just some kind of recently created repost-bot that automatically and immediately links articles - is this considered spam around here and should be reported or is this desired behavior?

    Well heres the reference they cited in the law.

    Everybody has their own unique internal world, so obviously you do you. All I can tell you that from my point of view it looks very confusing when you talk about "pornographic material at schools" in one comment and then provide references that, by anyone looking for pornographic material could at best be described as "incredibly disappointing".

    I mean, seriously: If you were a bookshop owner and someone asked you for some good porn, would you hush them, look around fertively and then genuinely recommend any of this?

  • Yo, dumnezero@piefed.social, this is really not cool. You're actively undermining discourse and wasting other people's time if you share this kind of auto-generated nonsense.

  • I’ve also found LLMs helpful as a compliment to web searching for my work (I deal with lots of public datasets from international organisations); LLM queries have helped me find sources that I missed via directed search.

    Do consider that web search had been a computationally simple and more importantly solved problem that has gotten steadily more unsolved over the course of the past 25 years.

  • How checklists lie with facts, and are bad for figuring out privacy of apps etc.

    Jump

  • Users shouldn’t have to care about jurisdiction if the servers cannot ever read their messages in the first place. Any app that fails to meet this requirement should wholesale be disqualified.

    What madness is this? Surely this is not about the servers reading a message, but about the user having or not having legal recourse against a server abusing whatever it is they can read. Metadata is data. Someone somewhere will know how much and when and in which patterns I communicate with who. And how much control I have over what they do with that knowledge simply depends on the jurisdiction. Technical considerations are irrelevant for that 🤷

  • Is there any solution to getting DOS games to work on Android? There seems to have been an old DOSBox version but all information I can find at a glance seem to be outdated. I feel like all the old 90s adventures would be great to run on my phone. Maybe even much earlier stuff like Zork. Or is this a fool's errand?

  • European game publisher group responds to Stop Killing Games, claims 'These proposals would curtail developer choice"

    Jump

  • In addition, many titles are designed from the ground-up to be online-only; in effect, these proposals would curtail developer choice by making these video games prohibitively expensive to create.

    Why even bother asking industry outlets about this? Clearly they will just keep on trying to paint the picture that they're people with rights and desires and not just replaceable entities serving at the behest of consumers, i.e. actual people.

    Unfortunately, even if the Stop Killing Games movement eventually succeeds in creating some sort of policy changes, they will only apply in the EU (and potentially the UK, as well), so publishers and developers may still be able to permanently shut down games in other parts of the world.

    Oh, I wouldn't worry about that. The whole world automatically benefits from regional legislation affecting global actors like international publishers. Just like the whole world benefitted from Europe enforcing GDPR compliance: Every reddit and Facebook user, not just Europeans, being able to download a data dump of their site activities isn't something that came about randomly.

  • China Could Ask Russia To Attack NATO To Open a Second Front in Europe Before Attacking Taiwan, Alliance Chief Rutte says

    Jump

  • Anyway why would navy even matter in this hypothtical situation? r*ssians regretfully aren’t regarded enough to attack anyone over sea.

    Maybe there's some kind of misunderstanding here. What's the current non-US-based NATO naval contingent around the China Sea?

  • China Could Ask Russia To Attack NATO To Open a Second Front in Europe Before Attacking Taiwan, Alliance Chief Rutte says

    Jump

  • What a strange soundbite.Surely it's not "NATO" that provides any kind of military counterbalance in the Taiwan Strait in any sense of the word? European naval forces aren't really a regional player (and arguably not any kind of player).

    So I guess what Rutte is really trying to do is to publicly state "I definitely believe a Russian attack on NATO would immediately draw every US aircraft carrier into the Baltic Sea! Would suck for Taiwan, but I defnitely believe in the dependability of all alliance members!" while sweating profusely.

  • French intelligence: China used embassies to undermine sales of France's flagship Rafale fighter jet

  • Good!As in: I approve of the concept. I hold this to be an acceptable way for modern countries to undermine each other if they desperately feel the need to. Economic pressure, back-room dealings, information campaigns... all much better than having hapless 19-year olds lob grenades at each other.Not so keen if it's only done in addition to and not as a replacement for military buildup and sabrerattling though...

  • Warum sagst du nicht einfach Raps?

    Weil ich zum Ausdruck bringen möchte, dass ich wenig Liebe zur Agrarflächennutzung für Tierfutter- und Kraftstoffgewinnung und damit wenig Liebe zum Raps habe - bestensfalls eine Arbeitsbeschaffungsmaßnahme für Landwirte und schlimmstenfalls eine gänzlich vermeidbare Überbewirtschaftung.

  • Ich wusste nicht das man Tote härter bestrafen kann. Tut mir eher um den Bauern leid der da nichts anbauen kann.

    Oh nein, weniger Tierfuttermittel und Dieselraps!Selbst als Ackerbesitzer kann ich dir sagen: Agrarflächen sind wunderschöne Geldanlagen, aber keine sinnvolle Nutzung von Fläche. Eine größtenteils obsolete Berufsgruppe mag zu Recht über ihre eigene Obsoleszenz enttäuscht und erbost sein, und dass dir das Leid tut spricht für deine Empathie - aber Agrarpolitik kann man auf dieser Basis nicht machen. Es wird zu viel angebaut, lass mal weniger anbauen.
