“It’s not realistic or helpful,” said one European military official of the “tech sovereignty” discussions. “Most of our European platforms are relying on American back-end . . . so it’s very difficult to see anything happening in the short term. It’s just not possible.”

Those arguments resonate more with European military officials than with politicians, according to tech lobbyists, because military leaders better understand the risks a sudden decoupling from the US would bring. Such a break, they argue, would create capability gaps and fragmentation, undermining military operations and cyber security, and making intelligence-gathering less efficient.

It’s okay if big changes are not possible in the short term but they shouldn’t ignore the long term.

To casual users, the sort likely to lap up Apple’s colourful new MacBook Neo or find Google’s Material You colour flourishes appealing, it’s the kind of change that could win over hearts and minds; a way to signal “I am like the others, don’t think me strange”.

This sounds pretentious as fuck.

A city park is also a third place and that doesn’t cost you money to be there.

I sometimes drink a glass of cola (at most one every 2 weeks). I’ve never had coffee in my life and I hate the smell of energy drinks.

I use Fedora on my desktop, laptop and server. On my mother‘s laptop I have installed Fedora Kinoite.

It’s legal for 16 year olds to drink/buy beer (and wine) in Germany, so yeah. But I never drank much and I really don’t like beer that much.

The oldest one I still use regularly is probably my Steam account which is 17 years old (as of today actually).

I played this as a kid growing up in Germany. I also learned it from my mother but I forgot how it’s played.

I have a very consistent schedule so I think every meal is very important for me.

An advantage that Framework still has is their upgradeability.

Firefox

It already happened: https://gram.liten.app/

It has to be setup therefore it has to be configured.

But that will require for other people to install and configure something which I don’t want.

That’s great because that’s what I miss from using Google Maps. I like to see how far I’ve travelled by train each month for example.

Does it detect travel method? So like if I travel by train, car or on foot?

I didn’t read everything because the feature list is not formatted correctly to make it easy to read/scan.
