With a good background contrast, it's easier to have windows stand out from each other. The default config with 0 gap and thin borders make it very hard to see which window is focused.

On the other hand the example on the landing page looks very close to what I can do with Pulumi (in Typescript) already.

More likely, someone will figure out a corporate structure that makes the EU subsidiaries out of reach from the US government. It's obvious that eventually all US-based services will be declared in breach of the GDPR given the US stanc

American companies are allowed to operate in China, as long as they follow local regulation. If TikTok behaviour is concerning (it is, like google/facebook/etc are also concerning), then introduce regulations that protect users&#x

Ironically, right wing parties in the EU rose thanks to disinformation on american social media. Following this discussion's logic, Facebook and Twitter should have been banned in the EU a long time ago.

It's not a huge conspiracy theory. TikTok moderates content based on the country's law, the US values free speech and so anyone can post anything they want on TikTok (and facebook, twitter). China has strict censorship laws, so co

IIRC the law just requires the port to be backward compatible with USB-C for charging.

That's because the US has free speech while in China there are laws about what can be posted online. If you don't want to see that content on TikTok, ask your politicians to pass censorship laws to ban it. Doesn't sound that

If you run your own server, aren't you risking being banned from some instances if you don't ban instances they don't like? So there is no real upside compared to joining existing instances (other than having a better identit

The issue with that line of reasoning is that it will result in a balkanized internet, accelerating what we're already seeing (US companies are under increased scrutiny in the EU, if the US bans TikTok I expect the EU to be more heavy

That the content is promoted to create disorder. Facebook has similar issues (they're even being sued for contributing to genocide) but they were never accused of the same thing (but mostly of negligence).

There's no need to single out TikTok, the same regulation that will make them spy on people less will also work with Meta, Twitter, Google. TikTok does nothing extra compared to them.

Funny thing to say when US-based services are being challenged in the EU because the US government is, in fact, not trusted with EU citizens data.

How does TC launder money? It's a privacy tool that hides the origin of cash, but when you cash out through an exchange you still need to prove the origin of cash. It's good to avoid others snoop through my wallet though.
