Дело в том что ЕС это не какая то внешняя и отдельная политическая структура. Еврокомииссиа состоит из премерминистров стран членов ЕС, то есть конечно они дают органам ЕС только такие инструменты которые выгодны им лично на национальном уровне. Политическую независимость от власти стран членов имеет Европарламент, но в то же время он имеет почти только легислативные полномочия.
А это не совсем так. Ты как и многие путаешь юридуческие инструменты какими ЕС располагает с теми которыми она не располагает. На основе Лизбонского Договора с 2009 ЕС особенно *не может* вмешиваться в дела "территориальной интегральности" государств-членов ЕС. На самом деле у ЕС больше инструментов для медиации в таких случаях вне стран ЕС (что она и делала в Сербии, Косове, Македонии) чем внутри.
При этом всем каталонский CUP строго *против* ЕС так что они и не просят.

@nar I guess EU must be considering a new pipeline as part of Southern Corridor and Russia just decided to remind everyone that their pipelines are much safer :)

update on #kepi (my Django-based Mastodon-like server):
it supports the Mastodon and ActivityPub protocols fairly well.
I would make a pre-alpha release except that local events (e.g. status creation) aren't properly propagated to remote users. I should fix that first.
Anyone want to play?
Reading about how "automatic content recognition" works in smart TVs, and honestly I don't understand why this isn't a bigger scandal. Your PC and smartphone don't take a screenshot every five minutes and send it to Dell or Apple. I don't get why TVs can get away with this.

Trying a new training method to improve people's use of backups: I've printed Ozymandias and stuck it to the fried hard drive from a teacher's PC, so that we can give it back to him as a paperweight/reminder. (Even with network storage easily available he stored the only instances of important files on C:, with exactly the results Murphy predicted.
)
Hoping it'll make a difference.
I don't think Luddites were an uniform crowd - some might opposed specific use of modern technology for economic exploitation, some opposed just because they wanted it "traditional".
Just as today we have people opposing NWO, vaccines, 5G and data farming for completely different reasons. Some oppose vaccines because they believe it causes autism and other pseudo-scientific BS, some oppose it specifically because it reduces mortality and they believe in overpopulation.
Garcia-Martinez wiggles, denies, misrepresents, strawmans, and focuses on trivia. He dismisses datafarm critics as luddite outsiders who don't understand tech, a talking point the film-makers anticipated by mostly interviewing former (and current) datafarmers. He compares their comments to Cultural Revolution "struggle sessions" (?!?), and claims they're just cynically monetizing their insider status while living in luxury. Which ironically, is exactly what he does:

The datafarm PR offensive against The Social Dilemma is well underway. Here's an example, written by Antonio Garcia-Martinez:

Have you read Koestler's "Darkness at noon"? The plot seems very similar, just that Koestler writes about stalinist culture.
Can we, as netizens, learn from the bitter experience of the Cultural Revolution, and shift from mass denunciation to cooperative problem-solving?
Have we all been mistakenly using the net - and social media in particular - as the exercise ground for never-ending struggle sessions? I've always tried to explain why I disagree with people, while implicitly upholding their right to hold and express their ideas. But I'm sure there are plenty of times when I've failed at that.
Another distinguishing feature of the revolutionary movements in 20th century was the cult of personality, which was definitely the case with both Bolshevik and Maoist revolutions (and even modern Russia). When the cult takes over, it becomes self-accelerating because the only way to show loyalty is to show more cult. Eventually even "the personality" cannot do much to moderate it, because that would negatively impact social position of thousands of supporters.
The "monster" is a fundamental problem with violent revolutions. Can't speak about Maoism but the need for violent revolution was the distinguishing feature of Marxism and then even more so of Leninism and Stalinism.
In short, the violent revolution results in negative selection by eradicating reasonable supporters and promoting those ready for indiscriminate violence.
Bertrand Russell perfectly noted that among Bolsheviks already in 1920:
I use a local Unbound resolver with similar blacklists as PiHole uses. I've just ran statistics on its reply log, which conveniently records time spent resolving and on average it's 0.092 sec so 92 ms, median however is even lower at 54 ms.
Because a local resolver has to do all the recursive resolution, I guess it's the speed and latency of your broadband that has *huge* impact here as all tiny delays add up.
One of my favourite features of Wazuh is command monitoring which, combined with rules, allows creating sophisticated sanity checks on critical infrastructure services. #wazuh #devsecops #security https://krvtz.net/posts/checking-for-critical-failures-with-wazuh.html
Precisely, it makes parsing files with funny characters (tabs, newlines etc) much easier.
