We need more governments to follow.

The headline says it's official. But then the article mentions -

Now, the only step left is for the European Council and Parliament to sign on the dotted line.

So it's not official?? Can anyone explain please??

It has always bean like that. You are just noticing it now.

This is hilarious.

Depending on the situation it can be a good or a bad thing.

• inability to unlock bootloader and run custom rom

• not having enough money to buy iPhone

• why is this post getting downvoted?

Googling niche topics usually takes me to reddit/quora where someone has already asked the same question and someone has already answered. But sometimes (rarely) it takes to threads where the first comment says "google it" 😑.

That's just not true.

I like how social media companies are starting to embrace the Fediverse.

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Every other post is about Reddit/Meta/Twitter. We need to move on.

I think laptops are also covered.

Belarus has been condemned by the Nations for its catastrophic human rights situation.

The report by the UN Human Rights Council was actually a follow-up to a previous report from September 2020, which had also highlighted serious concerns about the human rights situation in Belarus. The new report was based on information gathered between September 2020 and May 2021, and it found that the situation had continued to deteriorate.

Some of the specific human rights abuses that the report documented include:

• The use of torture and other forms of ill-treatment against detainees, including beatings, electric shocks, and sexual violence. The report noted that these abuses were often carried out with impunity, and that victims had little recourse to justice.
• The arbitrary arrest and detention of thousands of people, including journalists, opposition figures, and peaceful protesters. The report expressed concern about the use of administrative detention, which allows authorities to detain people for up to 30 days without charge or trial.
• Restrictions on freedom of expression and assembly, including the targeting of independent media outlets and the use of excessive force to disperse peaceful protests. The report noted that these restrictions had intensified in the wake of the disputed presidential election in August 2020.
• Concerns about the government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, including reports of inadequate access to healthcare and the politicization of the pandemic response. The report also criticized the government's decision to hold an in-person Victory Day parade in May 2021, despite the high risk of COVID-19 transmission.

The UN called on Belarus to immediately release all political prisoners and to take steps to address the human rights abuses. The Belarusian government has rejected the report, calling it politically motivated and accusing the UN of interfering in the country's internal affairs.

E-waste and Li-ion battery component shortages are gradually becoming a global problem. So ofcourse Governments will have to intervene at some point.

This law exists to force manufacturers to create a circular economy for batteries. A “circular economy” refers to a manufacturing model in which the resources put into it are recycled or reused as much as possible.

Feels like a bit overpriced to me.

Let them stay there.

We have successfully transformed Lemmy into Reddit I see.

Not having SD card is real painful.

It probably won't.

Depends on how much you trust your instance admins.

Can we run Doom on printers?

This is the 1004th time I am seeing people mentioning this article.

The problem is that it is not immediately clear to a user that their voting history is public as an average user cannot view that information.

I did open a Mastodon account. But don't use it much 😶

Companies would need some time to redesign their products.

How is that possible?

Exactly, They don't give a shit about Fediverse.

Some instances will federate and some will block them. It doesn't have to be all one or the other.

Great!

Then this title is misleading.

What is that?

They should put a hard-coded Meta blocker into activityhub

That will never happen

There is no way most people can replace there smartphone battery with current designs.

@chatgpt@lemmings.world tell me about Falkirk Wheel.

Then the rest of us will get really pissed unless the EU version is shit.

Solid logic
