Makes sense they’ve spent years curating other people’s content and are now selling it… Oh wait 😯.

They should, but then they’d be replaced by other US multinationals. So they won’t.

The EU (and not just the EU by the way) loves US tech. It can’t get enough. They both play a cat and mouse game with each other for the public but the EU aren’t going to force MS out and MS aren’t going to leave.

Put it another way, of the EU wanted to be principled and demand fairness for EU citizens they’d take away MS (and other US multinational’s) tax breaks via Dublin. But they’re not going to do that.

Literally dragging their heels over this. The biggest opposition was from EU bloc nations.

Now Ireland have eventually signed up to this but it’s a minimum threshold. i.e. they’re still highly comfortable about letting US multinational’s get away with complex tax arrangements in the EU to lower the amount they pay.

Exactly this. I don’t know anyone in the IT industry that would willingly buy IBM. They’re either locked in due to legacy reasons or government projects where most of them are incompetent.

Thankfully it’s changing, but slowly.

How are you all planning to watch the 2024 Olympics?

Do any of you have a plan in place for how to tune into the 2024 Paris Olympics? I’ve got a good Jellyfin ecosystem set up to watch my video files and listen to my music, but I haven’t explored many ways to watch live sports content yet. What is the best way to tune in to the events at the Paris Olympics this summer?...

Now The EU Council Should Finally Understand: No One Wants “Chat Control” (www.eff.org)

The EU Council has now passed a 4th term without passing its controversial message-scanning proposal. The just-concluded Belgian Presidency failed to broker a deal that would push forward this regulation, which has now been debated in the EU for more than two years....

Give it a few years 😉

I made a website that lets you use ranked choice voting in a mock UK General Election to explain how it works. (publicslate.co.uk)

I don’t know if this is too self-promotey to put in the more serious subs so I’m putting it here. I need to blag being able to do the django framework so I spent a week fannying about with it to make this. Feel free to mess about with it, give feedback or repost it on reddit or any other lemmy knock-offs.

We talking about the same thing? Thin, watery, an insult to Guinness, an insult to coffee.

This is like when Kraft bought Cadbury’s and started to do mash ups nobody wanted.

They did do a really nice lager some years ago. It was a limited edition but rather good. Wish they’d bring that back instead of this crap.

What is the point of nicotine patches?

I don’t get it. It’s kinda like you got to want to quit but at the same time yeah quitting is already hard for me. But I’m supposed to put it on me and somehow I get a form of nicotine without smoking. It’s like how am I supposed to get used to it. I will even take the patch off try to save it for later just so I can...

mannycalavera ,
@mannycalavera@feddit.uk avatar

They don’t work for everyone. I know quite a few friends that have just eaten cold turkey and quit.

Feeling lost and with no direction, what skill should I learn?

Hi everyone. I am feeling like I’ve lost any direction after getting laid off earlier this year (was working as an analyst in telecom and very recently landed a much lower position in healthcare data entry due to necessity). I already have several hobbies but I am either burnt out on them or they have lost their luster...
