Looking forward to getting a new phone with Sailfish OS. Seems to be the most advanced, open OS as of now.

Welp, I just played Stardew Valley again 😁

I can't deny there were some cases where the authorities have exaggerated. Especially recently. But you know where these people are actually coming from.

You maybe know that it's not these cases they're referring to when they talk about the lack of free speech.

Ah, of course it's about the serious violations on free speech in *checks notes* the brutal dictatorships of Britain and Germany. The dictatorship of common sense dictating you how not to be an asshole.

That's so terrible!

This one cracked me up, that's for sure. And I'm not even in Russia.

[–] petrescatraian@libranet.de 2 points 3 weeks ago

That makes sense. Thanks!

It usually only takes one serious incident to start a full riot on scooters. Last month there was a tragic event where one woman was killed by someone with a scooter who didn't see her crossing. Total outrage! Ban these things immediately. There's even a draft law in the parliament to forbid anyone riding a scooter unless they got a license of some sorts. Meanwhile, there was another accident where a guy was speeding and hit a woman on a pedestrian crossing. People were like "yeah, but maybe if she hadn't run on that crossing, and if she made eye contact with the driver, maybe it would've saved her life..."

 


Translation: It is time! The tricolor on the mast (dude has been a ship captain his whole life).
September 28th 2025 will be the day when a small country like the Republic of Moldova will provide a serious defeat to Vladimir Putin and his subjects from Kremlin.
See you again well on September 29th when the pro-europeans will continue to govern for their country and their people.

 

As a disclaimer, I must say I am not associated with the project at all. I just stumbled across it on the internet and thought it was an interesting one.

So, as I said, I stumbled across this project called PressPay. The business model goes like this: Publications sign up for this and feature a like button at the end of each article. Meanwhile, you as a user sign up for this and pay a monthly subscription. You click the like button on each article that you like, and the subscription that you pay is shared between the publications whose articles you liked (and the platform, of course, which seems to be taking a 20% share though).

In their reasoning, they state that ad monetization is basically not covering enough of the cost, and that subscription based models are pretty much limiting free access to information.

What do you think about this press monetization model? Do you find it viable? Do you think it could actually lead to a better media quality, or are there some hidden dangers that lay ahead if this model ever becomes more widely used? Do you have something similar in your country? And most importantly, do you recommend me to try it out? 😁
