Denmark have been pushing for chat control for a long time. The American view of the EU is very much a grass is greener one. They see the things that are better than in the US but not the things that are worse.

There is no such thing as EU defence - EU states have their own forces. The main defensive alliance in Europe is NATO, and the most important NATO country is the US.

From other comments where telemetry goes to, and possibly the level of remote control in the cars. It appears to be a general ban on "connected vehicles" controlled from certain countries even if built in the US[1], so I would gue

I agree with you that consumer hostile behaviour should be illegal. Realistically, governments want this because it gives them more control so its not going to happen. "its from China" is a good reason for many countries. A lot of

That stage does not last very long and kids require a lot less attention as they get older. if you are still at that stage I imagine its tough, but it will get a lot easier pretty soon and it is definitely worth it.

It was not like that in the London suburb I grew up in in the 80s. I think it was more common in smaller and poorer towns - maybe because people had less space at home. I agree the age gap probably affects it a lot. Keeping an eye on a you

Not in my opinion. Certainly nothing like as good as adult attention or play.

Which would force us to use Chinese models instead. It would also increase the incentive for other countries to develop models.

Irrelevant. VAT is charged on most services and by everyone. Not specific to digital services.

That only applies to things Mythos does better than Opus. Mythos is supposedly very good at things such as finding vulnerabilities, but is it better at business tasks? IN the short time I had access to Fable it did not seem noticeably bette

Empty threat conditional on something that will never happen. Most of the rest of the world is too heavily dependent on US digital services to tax them more heavily. From social media to hyperscaler's clouds the US is dominant and stu

Wow! I think this a relative of Poe's law in action - there is no idea you can think is satirical that someone does not think is a good idea.

Its more complex than that. Arrest is fairly straightforward, but you can be arrested and released without charge (e.g. Peter Mandelson was). Detaining is not something I really understanding, but from what I have read it is using restraint

Its as good as you are going to find in grouping people by ancestry.

British ethnicity is complicated. English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish? If Northern Irish then loyalist or republican? Do you count the Cornish separately? Germanic or Celtic? Norman ancestry. Its not defined by genetics. A very high proportion

Its a worry, but its too early to be sure what the long term effects will be. We will have many eyes on a lot more code. There might be a rush of reports that slows as all the old vulnerabilities are found. Closed software still has many p

The UK case involved him being "lead away" by police and "detained" when he returned and spoke so not really an arrest for holding up a blank piece of paper. Not good by any means, but not quite "for holding up a bl

> The second unnerving thing is that many of the listed vulnerabilites target embedded libcurl; a library with a much slower update cycle. I am guessing the slower update cycle is an issue where it is statically linked?

So the big advantage of nimic is that code remains valid Python and all valid Python cam be compiled? The transpile to a language that transpiles to C approach is unusual. Downsides of that other than slower compilation?
