Huge cringe...

audessusceston Changes to our content policy, our board, and where we’re going from here

I deleted my reddit account. Reddit is becoming an editorialised website where people propose content, slowly but surely. Promoting sub they entirely control and moderate heavily. I used to visit reddit daily for more than a decade. Reddit is dead to me.

audessusceston Firefox is showing the way back to a world that’s private by default

> How is concentrating DNS to even less "points of possible collection" of any advantage to user's privacy?

Firefox nightly (not sure with other version) propose already NextDNS as an alternative in pref. and an easy way to add a custom one. I can see for example big companies requiring their employees to use a custom one.

audessusceston South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

hmm yes you can, it's a shame for France to have mutilated that many people only for doing demonstration. WHILE LETTING OTHER PEOPLE BREAKS EVERYTHING FREELY.

audessusceston South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

You're just lying, he's been condemned for sharing the video : https://www.nouvelobs.com/justice/20190919.OBS18677/alain-so... Video which btw have nothing antisemite... but if you want to kill your dog, accuse him of having rabies... Oh and it's not 1 year sorry, it's 18 months.

audessusceston South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

it is similar, that does not mean it's the same. Show me where to watch these episodes in France now...(legally) Also, I'm sure it's pretty easy to watch the censored episode in China... So yeah, very similar. Another example in France is Soral who got one year jail for sharing a music video about Gilet Jaune[1]. Whatever you think about him, it's what we can call political repression.

audessusceston South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

Result is very similar, which is all that matters. In a way it's even worse, because they pretend to be a free country and shit (while doing repression even more violently than chinese or russian governements). China at least is not pretending that.

audessusceston South Park Responds to Being Banned in China for “Band in China”

In France, there's 10 Southpark episodes censored, and no one cares. Also in France, repression against Gilet Jaunes was way more intense and there was less coverage, even on social medias...

audessusceston Stack Overflow Inc. Fiasco: Timeline

It's not just more difficult, it also feels weird (to not say more). In France, they want to change how to write things so you write the masculine and feminine version of each word at the same time, and even though it looks like the most stupid thing in the world, a lot of people working at university or some politician do it.

Progress they say....

audessusceston Ask HN: What happens after no-deal Brexit?

...well, i'm french, it's written that way, but i can't seriously believe you didn't guess. Right ? ;)

audessusceston Ask HN: What happens after no-deal Brexit?

U.E. has already treaty with many countries or others unions (like UE), so it might be pretty easy. Also looks at economical situation in UE, they are not in a situation where they can be in economical conflict with (or at least isolated from) a country like UK

audessusceston Ask HN: What happens after no-deal Brexit?

most important treaties will be negotiated under new treaties, as it's in interest of both parties (people tend to forgot it's not in U.E. interest to have no deal at all). If there was a real threat, The City would have already left somewhere else, and it's not the case. Actually, it's pretty obvious that U.E. makes everything they can to impeach the Brexit that's why I tend to think the real threat is more for U.E. (as an institution) than for UK.
