Physical archives have literally worked for thousands of years. You do have a point in that commercial ventures like Embracer don’t tend to last for very long. Presumably the collection would not be auctioned off piecemeal if the company go

I think you’ll find they the article makes some very good arguments for why this is indeed a reenactment. I think the best argument is that three year olds would make extremely ineffective chimney sweeps. I don’t know if you’ve met any rece

Simply put, cinemas didn’t engage in this bad behavior (yet) so they escaped regulation.

I really enjoyed the “fire!” example. Very naturalistic!

I guarantee you 100% that this is NOT what a teenager is up to on their phone during the school day. I mean, they COULD, but then they first have to develop an interest in science and technology. The likelyhood of developing such an interes

No, it keeps teachers happy because the kids are able to focus on the teaching instead of sneaking looks in their phones every chance they get. (Not all kids, etc, but certainly a lot of kids do this.) No matter what method of teaching you

Yes, you're right, we should ban smart phones (or at least certain types of apps) for adults, too. But sadly there is no political majority in favor of that opinion, in Finland or elsewhere. (Wait, maybe they're banned in North Ko

Another use case is documentation - as they do activities, the teacher will use their cell to snap photos of the kids doing stuff. They can then use the school's app ("platform", I suppose) to send out a short note/summa

At my daughter’s school, they use a phone app to check the kids in as they arrive, and check them out as they leave. It replaces the paper list they used to have. Don’t ask me how it’s an improvement. I suppose they are able, in case of fir

Staff are expected to use phones and other digital tools in order to do their job, so I don’t think this comment is as witty as you might think.

That’s pretty eye-catching. My French is a bit rusty, did he get 40 days imprisonment? Normally in European countries, an insult, slander or libel would render a fine only. I’m not sure it follows from this case that the US has better prote

Ah. Let’s all be cool and un-emotional and let the children die from a preventable disease. Because cool heads are more important than lives. Right, got it. You’re an idiot. Bye!

You literally wrote “Being quarantined for expressing an opinon is bad”. I wrote that this is irrelevant because nobody has been quarantined for expressing an opinion. Then you deny making such a claim. You’re obviously mostly interested in

Measles kills people. You’re defending behavior that kills children. Kindly get out, preferably through a window.

Why are you asking me? If you want to know what happened at a private tech giant in California, ask someone who works there or an investigative reporter who writes about such things. I notice that you’re not disputing my claims that nobody

Yes, everyone, including those with preexisting immunity, because of the risk of breakthrough infections. Previous infection as well as the vaccine is only 97% effective against future infection, which means a significant amount of people a

Really? You’re writing that “Being quarantined for expressing an opinon is bad”, as if that’s a thing that happened. People were quarantined in order to slow down spread of a disease. When they broke quarantine, they were hunted down and de

by Jolter 1y ago
Wait, what. Are you saying that refusing to comply with quarantine measures is comparable with expressing a (legal to express, under the first amendment) opinion? What argument are you actually trying to support with that barrage of referen

As for that particular law you mention in France or Switzerland, please support the claim with at least one example from each country of someone serving prison time over calling someone a “fat lesbian”. I don’t believe it for a minute.

I live in a Northern European country, you don’t have to lecture me about how free speech law works here. It remains a fact that you cannot be deported from most countries (including my home country) for allegedly expressing a particular po

Do you actually prefer if people with a different political view than yourself are just… removed? I don’t even know where to start with that. Consider whether you have a broken moral compass or something. Consider moving to an actual dictat

Well, two down, then. That leaves about, oh I don’t know, 207 countries with universities. Probably at least a hundred of those are functioning democracies where you can expect rule of law and due process.

I’m not convinced, but if you could write up some examples, I think it would make for interesting reading…

Jokes aside, the EU page about the GDPR right to be forgotten [1] states: “ Here are the reasons cited in the GDPR that trump the right to erasure: The data is being used to exercise the right of freedom of expression and information.[…]” [

Are you an Internet search engine?
267.
by Jolter 2y ago
I don’t know if I agree. As long as search engines are private for-profit enterprises and not a public service, I think this particular regulation is slightly more good than bad. Tangentially, IMO any 1984 comparisons fall flat when the sta

This is exactly the same game as chronophoto.app, as far as I can tell, except with way better UX and as a “daily challenge” type game. Well done, anyway! It’s a fun game.

I believe it applies to court records, too, as long as the request for deletion is directed at an Internet search engine. The actual court record is not possible to get rid of under the GDPR, you can only make it so your court record is not
