There's the letter and there's the spirit of the law. Even if Apple has found a brilliant loophole the courts can just say well it's technically true but you're still breaking the law nonetheless, lawyer budget be damned.
A handful of egos and pockets are more important than thousands of lives
Didn't you hear about TakeTwo's TakeTwo brain implants? They take two chips and put them in emloyees heads. It acts as their work-related memory. When they come into the office it activates and when they go home it turns off (supposedly). There's no way you could fool such sofisticated TakeHome tech!

A lot (if not all) Fedi users have multiple accounts on various instances and platforms, so that also inflates the figure
I'd like to interject for a bit, if I may.
While german has cases, somewhat more complex verbs and gendered nouns, english also has its peculiarities that make it hard for non-natives to learn. Things like spelling and using the same word in a bazillion contests and methaphor-based idioms come to mind first. There are also simple-to-understand pecularities like its/it's and paid/payed which not even natives get right sometimes.
The point being, for all the "hard" and "useless" parts of one language the other language (as it's always comomparing apoles to oranges) has similarily "hard" and "useless" features itself, so in my opinion it more or less evens out.
What makes a language "easier" or "harder" to learn is how much of it you already know. In other words that's usually how similar it is to the languages you know already.
Congratulations, then you aren't. On another note, how does Linux on a phone look like? I thought Ubuntu touch was still pretty far from daily-drive capability.

The document mentions a lot of US laws. I wonder if they try the same over in the EU.
You did, but you are the product
As in: we [users in general] almost never tag the content of our messages by language
May I ask how one would go about doing that? I know it's a feature of the protocol, but it seems to be inaccessible to me on my client of choice (Jerboa). The vanilla web UI seems to have even less feature accessibility
I'd argue english ortography is a lot more pointlessly convoluted than french numbers (*cough* *cough* ough)
After Brexit there's no justification for speaking English yet they mostly communicate in English.
Republic of Ireland is still an EU member, so the EU is still obligated to treat it as an EU language.
Also, the EU is quite rational and english isn't going anywhere even if Ireland bailed since it's the lowest common denominator as far as foreign languages go.
And then the higher quality pool has a larger percentage of bots than the standard one
Thanks a lot!
Because you pretty much need a seperate Lemmy, Kbin and Mastodon account. I've heard that it's somehow possible to see Lemmy posts from Mastodon, but I haven't really been able to understand it. Apparently, it's janky as hell, but I wouldn't know, as I just have 3 accounts I use, one for each 'service'.
Since I moved during the Reddit fiasco when servers were overloaded and didn't know what I was doing I just hopped from instance to instance. So now I have at least 7 dead accounts that are still probably counted in the 'users' statistic.
I'd say one person counting for ~10 is significant, and I doubt I'm alone, even if I am an outlier with my instance-hopping
Mind giving some context on the Pauline chapters thing? Seems interesting AF to spend an afternoon on.
Don't all games on Steam get the basic DRM treatment?
I feel that that comment adds some nuance to the discussion, so I wouldn't call it 'moot' myself.
It's history they want to repeat, not the present they want to accept
