I clicked on the article in order to understand the reasoning behind this change, especially at this time where the cold weather is especially harsh for a portion of Ukrainians without electricity/heating:
Announcing his signature on the bill, Nawrocki, who is aligned with the right-wing opposition and regularly clashes with the more liberal ruling coalition, claimed credit for pushing the government towards ending the “unconditional privileges” granted to Ukrainians.
No reason. Just another fascist undoing policies put in place by human beings with a bit more sanity.
Make no mistake, these are the indirect result of US bullying via "mutually agreed trade deals", undermining every single policy the EU has put in place for the benefit of their citizens instead of business entities. The trade deals ARE the lobbying.
The US is in freefall and they're dragging us down with them. From chat control, to unreasonably huge cars in our roads, combined with lax safety standards.
I never thought we'd stoop so low in the EU, debating such outrageous policies, eapecially so because they are applied selectively and specifically to the mass population and not the ones voting for their introduction. I'm glad there are still proponents of basic human rights at the state level, although even Estonia accepts chat control if it's not obligatory for service providers. Which is still massively problematic.
This is a huge threat and we owe it to ourselves to defend against this sort of meddling. Look at the results of similar campaigns that pushed Brexit and Trump's candidacy.
Bringing preferences, bookmarks, history, migrating passwords to a password manager. All the important functionality of the sites I visit often working without issues. I knew that everything should work without issues, but you never know for sure until you actually give it a go.
Same. MV3 and Google disabling ublock origin even though mv2 was still functional, was the last straw. I was afraid to jump ship after 16 years of Chrome, but I'm really happy I did.
It's not a hard limit, but on the other hand it is an agreed amount of time between stakeholders which carries weight and expectations. Creative work does tend to defy fitting into time constraints. I'm not saying it's impossible to harmonize agreed time and creative work, but an agreed time constraint will be impactful in the creative work itself. We've all seen so many instances of excellent series turning average because they dragged for too long, or terrible endings because they ran out of time or had the carpet pulled out of their feet.
I am sure that OpenAI, the Pentagon, Altman, Trump and Hegseth will utilise this technology very responsibly
