1. S’il vous plaît / Merci in French.

2. Snälla / Tack in Swedish (I guess, not sure which word is best translation). Norwegian is something like var så snill / takk I think.

3. Onegai / Arigatō in Japanese. (Or kudasai as someone mentioned)

4. 请 (qǐng) / 谢谢 (xièxie) in Chinese.

Had to check Polish spelling but proszę / dziękuję I think. Not 100% sure about proszę as I think that’s also used when giving someone something, kinda like “here you go”? On a better day I would’ve probably remembered bitte/danke for German too. :-(

Most big distros are old enough to drink though. Ubuntu is 20yo, Fedora 21yo, openSUSE 18yo, Arch 23yo, Gentoo 23yo. (I got curious and a bit carried away…)

But sure, Debian does have them beat by roughly 10 years (31yo).

This OS isn’t made by the EU, but it’s goal is to become sponsored by them:

Is EU OS a project of the European Union?

Right now, EU OS is not a project of the European Union. Instead, EU OS is a community-led Proof-of-Concept. This means it is lead by a community of volunteers and enthusisasts.

The project goal is to become a project of the European Commission in the future and use https://code.europa.eu/. For this EU OS is in touch with the public administration on member state and EU level. So far, EU OS relies on https://gitlab.com/eu-os.

Personally I don’t see why EU wouldn’t just go with Suse. It has the corporate support that I guess these government institutions crave, it’s a good system as far as I know and it’s home-grown. Ubuntu is another option, Canonical is a British company (not EU anymore but it is European).

If a tariff falls on a product category but no one is around to hear it, did it even make a sound?

Automating this system with some kind of algorithm is not right, but a nearly blind 70-year-old can still do damage? The angle here is weird.

Switzerland because it blows every other European country out of the water in terms of salaries. One consideration would be if you’re planning to have a kid they have shitty parental leave in comparisson.

“US politics new speak, can’t relate.”

I sure hope so, but I have little faith tbh. Cloud providers have done a great job selling serverless solutions that are tightly coupled with the provider. Wise companies have limited themselves to the basics - load balancers, servers, maybe some serverless container solution or kubernetes. The latter can move pretty much anywhere with some, but not a whole lot, of effort. The former, have fun rediscovering the quirks of your new provider’s equivalent of lambdas or whatever (or at worst, rewriting the whole thing).

In Sweden we’ve been able to do this for years? Any site that has Klarna as a payment option you can choose to add it to your monthly bill or the “pay it later” (I think two weeks) option.

There’s a non-zero % chance that a nazi with ties to the government and unlimited money might be interested in this data… 👀

I think there is a skill set that’s required to use AI efficiently. You need to know what kind of problems they’re suitable for, be able to recognise when it’s going in circles or hallucinating and you need to be able to troubleshoot and understand whatever it’s outputting. Personally I’ve found it quite useful in many cases.

A team with one creative and one gets things done is not too bad. I’d take the headline with a grain of salt since AI are known to not always get things done and sometimes will lead their pilots around in circles for no good reason, but still, they don’t really need to be creative to beat most teams.

First alienate every potential customer of advanced military equipment, then dump insane amounts of money into development of advanced military equipment. The art of the deal.

My experience with Matrix is that the federation itself is a deal breaker. I have a pretty beefy server and good connection which was getting ddosed by running Matrix and timing out on so many requests for avatars/profiles etc. Maybe I did something wrong, but the whole experience rendered me quite skeptical to the viability of it as a federated chat.

That said I’ve had nothing but good experiences using it with big servers set up by pros.

Right, and picking an instance is kinda same guidelines as any fediverse. Find something focused on your main interest of decent size and you’ll be able to get things from most other places too?

Just out of curiosity, as a person who doesn’t make any videos myself and don’t know anyone who does, is there any use to hosting my own peertube instance? Mostly curious because it seems quite popular to self-host so there might be some killer feature I’m overlooking.

I feel this should be obvious to anyone who knows anything about programming, because typescript is just a development tool not a runtime.

Netscape went bankrupt so might not be the most solid idea for funding. Wasn’t opera paid before too, but abandoned that model?

Not sure how you read pride into this at all, the implication is that if they don’t know about it it’s not a choice, while at the same time acknowledging that perhaps I’m just out of the loop.

Did they really? I assume they would do more research than me when choosing tech, but my initial reaction is “the fuck is a Jami?”. Is this a big app in recent years?
