You should have received an email with a receipt if you did sign. In doubt, sign again; signing twice will invalidate the second signature but not the first (confirmed by EU staff).

If this gets enough signatures, the EU will create a review committee, which, if they approve of the initiative, will draft a law for the European Parliament to vote on.

At least we will have an official position, instead of the legal void we're currently in.

Correct, although that would be technically illegal but no one will check. However, bots and trolls who spammed faked addresses will most certainly have their signatures invalidated.

This is a EU initiative but you're free to create one in the US.

Not in every country. In about half of them, you only need to provide a name, address and date of birth.

If you're in the EU, you should still sign; extra signatures will be useful if it turns out some of them are invalid.

He wasn't a game dev apparently. He worked in security, and there are rumors saying he actually was a WoW moderator.

They don't have freedom of speech. So sad :(

There is a feature I miss from Windows and I was surprised was not in KDE: pasting a URL in the Open File dialog downloads the file and opens it.

I want to try out Fallout New Vegas after having watched the TV show, and beforeiplay.com recommends I use a few QoL mods, in particular one for higher resolution screens (I'm playing on a 4K monitor).

So I lookup "fallout mtui", end up on the mod's page, hit download... and am greeted with a screen telling me I need to sign up for an account.

I obviously do not want to create an account on such a shady website, so I tried using a throwaway email... rejected (of course). I then said "fuck it" and tried registering with my real email address... also rejected. "E-mail address is not valid". Well, it is, this is my primary e-mail address, has been for more than 10 years, and I've successfully used it to register on dozens of websites, including Amazon, eBay, various banks, Steam...

I found several Reddit posts about this issues, dating back to several years to a few months. Apparently, registration on Nexus Mods has been broken for very long, with no fix on the horizon.

So it seems it is impossible to download anything from there. Is there a mirror somewhere? Or are all these mods no longer possible to access?
