I had a conversation with a friend about iPads lately related to the „just lacking the OS“. The newer iPads with M-chips have all the computing power an average user could need but it’s crippled by the mobile-ish OS, so all the computing power is for nothing basically. An iPad running MacOS (with some adjustments for the Touchscreen) would be awesome. But we concluded it won’t happen anytime soon, because then basically no one would buy MacBooks anymore

AFAIK the Dutch model so far (consumption and sale somewhat allowed, but no growing or importing) has created huge criminal organisations that also started to do a lot of other crimes (bc what’s there to lose if you’re going to jail anyway basically) and a big goal in designing the new German law was to not mess it up like the Netherlands have

Wasn’t there a study on cats that concluded something like „cats know when you call their name but just don’t care“?

Hey, not fair. It’s one user, ok? I mean, that’s me, but still

TIL „touch“ has other uses than creating a file

Well, his mother said she has seen the body

You say you hear about protests and community action. They have to have been organized by someone. Is there a way for you to find out by whom? Then you could they to reach out to them

Late Update: I use Hyperweb, the free version is totally enough for me and works great

Not sure atm what the extension I use for safari on iPhone is called, but it works great for me. I‘ll look it up when I get to it

Fun fact: O.K. actually originated as the abbreviation for „oll korrect“ because people in the 1800s thought it was super funny to misspell things

I‘m not really informed on this. What is the reasoning to remove port forwarding?

I‘m German and have eaten a lot of potato salad during my entire life. Not once has it been served hot

I think the message is „Landlords and Murderers are bad people but even they are disgusted by people who use the term female to refer to women“

I never said people shouldn’t have that right, i was just genuinely wondering why it’s important to people. Thanks for the insight, definitely good points you make. :) But somehow I think, if a big company wants to scrape that data (thats still publicly available, whether you make it natively searchable or not) they can do it anyway. So if you’re worried about that, shouldn’t you rather just not post that stuff to the public? (I want to emphasise again that I’m not trying to argue against you, I just want to understand as I’m not that well versed on these topics)

So I don’t know about Spanish criminal law in particular, but in Germany the criminal code states that it’s generally only applicable for acts committed on German territory, but there are multiple exemptions for offences committed abroad „with specific domestic connection“. This includes so called „offences against sexual self-determination“ if the offender is a German national. I could imagine that Spain has a similar rule.

Update: Seems I was (mostly) right, but spanish law is even broader than that of germany in these cases.

The Spanish courts shall also have jurisdiction over acts recognized as offences under Spanish criminal law, even if they have been committed outside the national territory, provided that the perpetrators are Spanish nationals or foreigners who have acquired Spanish nationality after the commission of the crime, and subject to the following conditions: (a) The act is an offence in the place where it was committed; (b) The victim or the Public Prosecution Service has filed a complaint or brought a case before the Spanish courts; (c) The alleged perpetrator has not been acquitted, pardoned or convicted abroad, or, in the latter case, has not served his or her sentence. If he or she has served part of the sentence, this will be taken into account in order to reduce proportionally the sentence imposed.

I knew I forgot something when posting, thank you! Good human

Genuine question: why would people have a problem with making stuff you post publicly searchable?

I do on my work computer, bc I don’t really have another choice there. But as it’s chromium based it’s actually not that big of a pain in the ass to use compared to internet explorer back then. But in my personal life I would still never use it
