“Like the majority of Google’s privacy pushes that we’ve seen until now, the FLoC proposal isn’t as user-friendly as you might think. For one thing, others have already pointed out that this proposal doesn’t necessarily stop people from being tracked across the web, it just ensures that Google’s the only one doing it.”

Unreal Tournament (1999): платная игра, нет DLC, нет сезонного пропуска, нет платных скинов. Моды, кастомные сервера, карты, режимы, мутаторы, тотальные конверсии. Редактор карт в комплекте. Поддерживается до сих пор, последний патч вышел пару месяцев назад.

Call Of Duty Modern Warfare (2019): платная игра с платным сезонным пропуском, платными скинами и бустерами опыта. Через год после выхода игры поддержка прекращена, сама игра преврещена в огромный рекламный баннер. Модов нет, пользовательского контента нет, редактора нет.

The Soviet-Chinese propaganda looks like a wonderful story of gays who met at a metallurgical plant. Married and had wonderful childrens.

OK, so I'm looking for work, if you see something matching my profile - please pass it my way.

Got broad nerd qualifications, linux-first since 2003, high interest in privacy/security, some sysadmin skills (running some services since >15yrs), semi-advanced project management, organised anything from small tech projects to logistics for big events with thousands of people. TV production technician by education.

Most of my experience scares away corporates, and I'm really bad at writing CV's.

Совпадение? Не думаю!

14 апреля 2021 — Росстат объявил (https://lenta.ru/news/2021/04/14/bedn/) о снижении бедности в России в 2020 году. По итогам года уровень снизился до 12,1%, что на 0,2 процентного пункта, или на 300 тысяч человек, меньше, чем аналогичный показатель за 2019 год.

8 февраля 2021 — Росстат (https://meduza.io/news/2021/02/08/rosstat-izbytochnaya-smertnost-v-2020-godu-sostavila-324-tysyachi-chelovek-u-poloviny-iz-nih-byl-korona): избыточная смертность в 2020 году составила 324 тысячи человек.

I just realised that implicitly I built a FLOC tester :D

Want to check if your browser implements FLOC? Just go to https://shivering-isles.com and if a banner shows up warning you about FLOC, your browser is affected. Amazing!

While a lot of people decided to set a header to opt-out from FLOC tracking for their users, I decided to embrace it and let people make up their own mind.

For those interested in the banner, here are the implementation details:

https://git.shivering-isles.com/shivering-isles/blog/-/commit/7896142b66a57de4a960487bc3ea5fcec187d2e2

It's kept simple and efficient. It'll only show up, when your browser implements the API. Enjoy!

what really pisses me off is many 30/40 something Brexit voters had fun in their own youth travelling to Ibiza or teknivals (raves held in European countries) making use of free movement - and cops in the countries where the events happened turning a blind eye to rampant drug use, dealing and drug driving from the UK folk (many of whom were only doing it because UK had clamped down on these things), and yet they voted against positive bits of European integration..

@kawaiipunk @piggo @davidoclubb

exactly - they won't have to "abandon" their second homes, no more than people from Russia or China or Singapore would.

However they will have to comply more with immigration and tax rules and a lot of Brit expats set up home in a foreign country to try and avoid these (and were very often also trying to use the "common EU citizen" status whilst still being a "foreigner" (but a rich one) as a get out to avoid complying with various domestic regulations))
