Been to Santa Cruz visiting the bike factory, went to the bar next door to drink with some mountain bikers.

They had 'Brussels IPA' and 'Belgian IPA', I ordered those beers coming from Brussels and did not knew those beers.

The waiter looked at me strangely. I did not gave any tips.

"Also there are thousands of lobbyists fighting for small businesses."

I don't know on which world you live, but it's the opposite.

Big business buys influence, including buying the opinion of small companies.

And big business is all around Brussels, small companies simply don't have a 'lobbyist'.

FTP mirrors is all you need to "scale".

Unfortunately, Git is not as distributed as it claims to be.

European Commission caved in, developers lost.

GitTorrent

"Protocols" now that everything has been moved to a master-slave protocol (HTTP), we are all slaves of the masters.

So much for "git is decentralized" lol

"logging solutions"

In 2005, FFII predicted that the Data Retention directive would not pass the Courts.

It just took 10 years for the CJEU to strike down the measure, as it is "mass surveillance".

Logging everything your bot does by law is of the same dimension?

"With dirt cheap models like deepseek-v4-flash that will run "forever" on $10, the answer for me is clearly: no."

When it's free, you are the product.

Like spermatozoïdes

My personal record was between Nieuwport and Zeebruge, as there was line of sight between the 2 sites.

Made some diy wifi antennas: waveguide, yagi, etc...

Back in the day used Radiomobile software to calculate the link budget between the receiver and the transmitter.

The title is misleading "No Age Verification" and then later on call for using ZKP to do Age Verification.

Is the Pirate Party supporting Age Verification now?

Pocket money.

You could suspend it to ram, and only wake it up on request, it takes 2 seconds on my box.

"zero talk about forcing companies (at least for the ones shipping android phones) to open up their firmwares and allow users to install alternative OS if they want to sell in the EU."

Complete public datasheets on how to program the hardware should be a requirement fit a DMA2.0.

I have read a Linkedin post in french recently with a university lab (one big machine serving hundreds of users) mentioning that they could swap models on demand. Will try to find back the link.

Would it be able to swap models on demand with this?

Age verification for 'appstores' (debian repos?) is inside ChatControl v2.

How open are the wifi drivers? (it was an issue with Broadcom and WRT54G)

1984.

Spelling mistake:

"a return on these invetment"

No 'training data', not 'open source'.

Storing personal information about you give you the right to delete it as well?

Privacy is forbidden.

Everything you do will be used against you in court if required.

Popcorn for watching all those webapps being penetrated.

Long live static websites without any Javascript.

Ch341a to the rescue.

On my todo, i still have the pet project to make a simple libusb c project to control its gpios. The documentation id not very clear, and implémentations scarce. Now with LLMs i could make some progress.

Jlink is closed source.

Better use dirtyJTAG on an rp2040.

'open source' crap to connect to their LLM blob.
