Mine is on Codeberg Pages. I don’t know what your requirements would be for “safe” but it’s free and Codeberg is open source.

The modern German state still punishes people for insulting politicians. Seeing as we have “freedom of opinion” rather than the USian “freedom of speech” this is somehow legal and societally appropriate.

They’ll complain that Chinese cars are surveilling them, even though the requirement to do so comes from their treasured liberal democratic institutions.

“Reason to be concerned.”

The DACs built into phones are fine for standard lossy audio files. What you may be missing is simply power. I am not current in terms of mobile audiophile gear so I can’t make any product recommendations but from what you describe a headphone amplifier is what you’re missing.

I was just in a class with an older German teacher who said he wants an AI-android as a household helper in retirement. I said he can have a Chinese one right now, which he dismissed out of hand. I asked for clarification and he said something like “I don’t trust the Chinese. I don’t really trust the Americans either but I’ll probably get one from them.” Ok white man.

Yeah, what amounts to the EU constitution mandates neoliberalism.

The Intercept’s lack of response is super weird, but then again so is the entire outlet.

A hack can happen, in a lot of cases through no true fault of the victim, but not saying anything about a breach of a very sensitive account is sketchy at best.

Last week already iirc

My solution is pi-hole for general ad- and tracker blocking (with a custom block list for domains I noticed my smart tv requesting), and SmartTube Next as a replacement for the Youtube app. Search is currently broken but other than that it works great. No ads and includes SponsorBlock.

[the router] has access to other sources of internet

I am not sure what you mean by this. But you could set up a pihole instance and manually set the smart tv dns to that device’s local IP.

A cold welding robot will be so cool.

The article tries to frame this as a good thing.

I’d also like to see those numbers for younger age groups.

Make cheese not warships.

There was an investigative report in Germany a few years ago in which the journalists demonstrated how easy it is to shut down CSAM sites online. Does the state, so interested in “protecting children” take action? No, because these initiatives are about censorship, surveillance, and control.

Interesting. The “pop history” I am familiar with on this topic claims the Soviets only won tank battles through sheer numbers, and that the German tanks were far superior. But that’s likely simple anti-communist storytelling.

Ironically enough most non-US banks will not serve potential customers with US citizenship due to the excessive financial reporting requirements the US has for citizens abroad.

“Mental health team offers help” by offering affordable housing, right?

Thanks for sharing this. The OP is The Left Berlin and they’ve done a 7 part series on this topic in English.

I knew that citizens have to register, but I didn’t know that immigrants have to as well.

Green card holders, refugees, asylees, parolees, and undocumented men must register.

I have no words.

I’ve been to an art museum which openly displays art stolen by Nazis. Often the source or owner of a piece is listed on the information tag next to the painting, and some say (I’m not sure of the actual wording anymore) “stolen by Nazis, it’s ours now.”
