init systems devroom got denied

but accepted was:

both "Legal & Policy Devroom" and "Open Source & EU Policy Devroom"

a devroom for "AT-Protocol" alone, while "Social Web" also got a devroom; isn't AT-Proto meant to be part of social web?

both "Decentralised Messaging" and "Decentralized Internet and Privacy"

kinda eh to have those pairs rooms with what seems like very close together topics... but okay ig

huh, okay

Die Bundesregierung will das IFG massiv einschränken - angeblich wegen Sicherheitsrisiken und überlasteter Behörden. Doch das Innenministerium hat für diese Behauptungen keine entsprechenden Belege. Das musste es erst im Gerichtsverfahren einräumen. Wer demokratische Kontrolle beschneiden will, sollte mehr vorweisen können als Behauptungen. 👇 🤦‍♂️

RE: https://mastodon.thi.ng/@toxi/117474817880134546

🚨 Please read & act if you're running a small online shop in the EU or are even just a customer of one: These people need your urgent support. Otherwise the still new EU-wide packaging & waste regulation (PPWR) as it currently stands and is in full effect WILL kill most of the small businesses in the EU, incl. the livelihoods of artists, designers, illustrators, makers etc. who're trying to survive by selling physical goods online...

The legislation already came online in August, but it's been an utter bureaucratic mess! Official communication and clarification was even worse/absent for many weeks since rollout. An exemption from the most damaging parts for nano/micro-businesses was only voted[1][2] on in parliament today (almost 60(!) days after introduction), but with positive outcome. However, this support by parliament is only a small win and we need more pressure on MEPs to clarify the severity of this situation for the next round(s) of negotiation with the EU Council and member states.

To clarify: The most damaging & costly part of this regulation is the requirement for a legal representative in each EU country you want to ship to. The cost of a single representative is several hundred Euro per yer per country. If you're intending to sell to the entire EU, that's worst case 27 middlemen to pay, i.e. (tens of) thousands of Euro in just regulatory fees every single year. It's completely unrealistic, disproportional, nonsensical and against every aspect of the single market principles... It is now easier to sell to outside the EU than it is to sell inside the EU! Make it make sense!

The only people this regulation benefits are major retailers and the growing compliance industry!

Please boost for visibility! Thank you! 🙏

Hopefully my PHP use is in the services that lay off.

@homelab

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Also I should add something else: internet artists are petty and spiteful towards anyone who even gets too successful in that sphere and might have stepped on some people along the way.

Look at Vivziepop, many of the people who shit on her do it because she managed to break out of that scene. There's some valid reasons to shit on her or her work, but they've been overshadowed by the BlueSky people screeching at her wishing that they could be in her shoes with a big name production.

Or how a problematic artist who drew edgy shit a few years ago will always have someone tagging along every time someone features his art to dump the Google Doc/screenshots. To them, it's no different than an artist actually doing heinous shit.

Overhead, without any fuss, the php servers were going out.

@davidgerard wait, really? I see Russian websites or software and I want to use Lysol.

Shirt and tie fixed, now to find something to whittle into a chanter for the bagpipes. Preferably something washable.

Looking better already.
