It does sound less problematic if you cite some “good” sources like this one: https://www.handelsblatt.com/politik/deutschland/neuerung-seit-1-januar-bundeswehr-maenner-bis-45-muessen-auslandsaufenthalt-melden/100214453.html

So basically it is not sanctioned (yet) if you don’t do it and it is automatically granted as long as we are not in an active “war situation” (whatever that exactly means) or rather as long as our military service is still voluntary.

That depends on your requirements or rather what you compare it with. Their models seem to focus on cheap agentic AI usage or even local installations. This will become relevant as soon as the AI bubble bursts and all big players have to massively adjust their prices. E.g. their latest “devstral 2 small” model obviously has to be compared to similar small model that offer a similar FOSS permissive license. But even comparing their bigger service based offering to similar “cheap” offerings from Anthropic it seems they can compete: https://byteiota.com/mistral-devstral-2-7x-cheaper-than-claude-72-swe-bench/

Few weeks ago I saw a really cool presentation about the history and current state of Linux phone. It is unfortunately in German, slides in English though: https://youtu.be/JeFoRE72Gu0

you certainly have very strong opinions about something you can’t exactly remember. It’s ok to be wrong though we won’t hold it against you :-)

he’s sooo close to being banned for trolling 😂🤣

Some years ago I heard about this German guy that found a mind boggling bug in Xerox scanners and the whole story how they tried to play it down is really insane. So definitely worth watching, unfort only with German audio: https://youtu.be/7FeqF1-Z1g0

apparently they added that feature in June, very interesting. As free user u only get a light version though: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/8590148-memory-faq

it’s called agile xD

I have Pixeld Android 16 and there I can still diasable every pre-installed app directly in the app settings. Also you could just go to the “open by default” settings of the app an set it to back to “browser” this way yt videos you click will not open the app anymore but the browser.

I think when you disable yt you can even got to the NewPipe app settings and enbaled it to be opened by default for each yt link and many more are supported by the app.

Also the youtube app is very usable with premium obviously. So in case you want to try it out but want it cheaper you could try the vpn trick an buy premium from a “low cost” country. Unfortunately google is fighting is actively and for most countries you’d need a credit card from that country. However Poland still worked for me for example and it’t still almost half the price therr.

I mean ladybird certainly would be lowest tier, considering you first have to compile yourself 😂 also it’s pre alpha state…

But it’ll be interesting to see how far they’ve come on 1 year

it’s being answered in the github thread you linked. Sorry that this is not enough for you but it’s enough for most people: “For people who are concerned about this sort of thing, you can enable sealed sender indicators in the settings”

The amount of trolls in this thread that either try to spew false information intentionally or just have no idea what they are talking about is insane.

If you are worried about what data (including your phone number) law enforcement can recieve (if they have your specific user ID, which is not equal to your phone number) from the Signal company check this: https://propertyofthepeople.org/document-detail/?doc-id=21114562 Tldr: It’s the date of registration and last time user was seen online. No other information, Signal just doesn’t have any other and this is by design.

If you want to know more about how they accomplish that feat you can check out the sealed sender feature: https://nerdschalk.com/what-is-sealed-sender-in-signal-and-should-you-enable-it/

or the private contact discovery system: https://signal.org/blog/private-contact-discovery/

Also as Signal only requires a valid phone number for registration you might try some of these methods (not sure if they still work): https://theintercept.com/2024/07/16/signal-app-privacy-phone-number/

Yeah that is why “deportation” is the wrong word being used… It is an “opinion” piece from one Berlin based journalist, that obviously lacks some legal details or is trying to use a catchy headline. I especially like it when the article says the used “objects that could have been used as potential weapons”. It was fucking AXES they used and obviously the Uni employees were horrified when it happened. Not saying that is right to restrict EU citizens movement in such cases. I’d prefer a proper trial before that happens but they certainly didn’t behave very well.

In case of the US citizen I guess you could call it a deportation/expulsion.

Some translated legal background for you guys: Strictly speaking, in the case of EU citizens, this is not referred to as expulsion/deportation, but as loss of freedom of movement. ‘EU citizens entitled to freedom of movement can lose their right of residence for reasons of public order, security or health,’ according to the website of the Federal Ministry of the Interior.

Particularly stringent conditions apply to the loss of residence on grounds of public order or security. ‘There must be an actual and sufficiently serious threat to public order or security that affects a fundamental interest of society. This threat must be based on the personal behaviour of the EU citizen,’ writes the Federal Ministry of the Interior on its website.

People who do not come from the EU are referred to as deportees. This is the case here for one person. If a person from a third country jeopardises public safety and order, the free democratic basic order or other significant public interests through their stay, they can be expelled.

There is some interesting stuff to find. I didn’t know the German ministry of interior is building its own FOSS matrix based messenger, lol https://gitlab.opencode.de/bwi/bundesmessenger/info

I was also sceptical but it seems to be generally true, however the details of it are way more complicated. Read for yourself if you know German or use a translator, one of the biggest Berlin newspapers picked it up and added details : https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/nach-beteiligung-an-palastina-protesten-in-berlin-drei-eu-burgern-und-einem-studenten-aus-den-usa-droht-ausweisung-13468543.html

It’s true, most of your comments seem to have a positive upvote score and therefore more upvotes than downvotes. Your Yale comment seems to have attracted the most downvotes in recent time, currently “-14” “upvotes”/points (seems that some lemmy clients just call them “points”)

So actually it seems that currently Lemmy itself doesnt support showing one users total upvotes/downvotes as this would very much resemble the reddit Karma system and they dont want that.

However as all your comments and the total sum of votes for each comment(I think also the bare numbers of upvotes/downvotes are visible via Api access) are public one could theoretically write a script or build this into a Lemmy client. However the 3 clients I just used to test this don’t support this and probably don’t want to.

I am proud subscriber since many years and I can say without a doubt the overall best tech/science news page and even most importantly “community”. Like the comments in each article add so much entertainment and knowledge, often I gind myself reading more comments than news on Ars. So many smart commentors it’s really a good place.

I love that you link Obtanium. This is the first time I saw an app dev actually linking to Obtanium. Getting your FOSS app update directly from the git repos without the google bs around it just seems logical.
