The problem is that industry has been involved in EU politics for decades, they have their people and lobbyists well in place and they are able to make the politicians believe that they not only represent the industry but also the consumers

I have an IPv6 internet connection but in my home network are still devices, like my TV, which do not support IPv6. I also use some VPN tunnels, which also still rely on IPv4.

The worst thing, the absolute worst thing is, you know all that but you have gotten so used to the way Google services work, that you simply have a hard time to switch. E.g. thank to Gmail I rarely use an email application on my computer an

I mistyped, I wanted to say, that you can create your own blueprints by studying a machine. But when your invention is patented this implementation is protected. But in software it is not about the implementation (because that's alread

Another example why software patents don't really work. Because most thing software patents cover are not really inventions but ideas. Also the written code is already protected via copyright. That is the difference to a eg. wind mill,

I think I have never read a piece in which the word "single-minded" is used in a positive way. Mostly people refer to it as a bad thing. Also I don't think that single-mindness really helps developing good software people wan

Many co-op banks are merging into bigger ones these days, they are still local banks which are owned by members of the co-op which are usually people from the region. There are also several bigger co-op banks or rather supra-regional banks.

I like light rails, prefer them over busses. People kinda trust light rail more than busses, because for light rail you need a track and a station, for busses you just need a bus stop sign. My bigger point is, when you $10 for a ticket with

I like trains, I prefer them over any highway project any time. But I have a few concerns about this train service. Like it has only 8 north and 8 south bound trains per day. Will this be really interesting for enough commuters to switch? A

Weirdly enough, services like WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram are more portable. Because the identifier is not owned by the service but is provided by s.o. else. It is essentially a decentralised social graph in the address book of your phone

The problem with Jabber is, that you are locked in to one server, switching means that you have to re-add all your contacts and so far there is no automatic way to do it. I think the developer of IMCom (console Jabber client) thought about

Public banks are a good idea. It is part of the success of SME in Germany, because we local and public banks to support them. The third pillar are co-op banks. Which have a similar role.

I know Conversations, I like it but I lost all my Jabber contacts over the years (also due to the fact that the server I was using shut down). So, my list is empty. I have not tried Dino (I don't use Linux at the moment).

Demanding privacy is not overstepping it is consumer protection. The consumer need to rely that you treat their data responsibly and the GDPR is a rule book what you need to do. And yes, this rule book knows sanctions.

I remember that there was an anonymous social network a while ago. The screenshots for this service look similar. Maybe someone got nostalgic for that long lost application. Edit: I think that was "Secret", it shut down in 2015.
