Babalugats@feddit.ukOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it possible to set up a PieFed or Mbin community out of the box, or do they require knowledge of coding?2·7 days agoThanks, yep I may may have mistitled communites over instances…
Babalugats@feddit.ukOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it possible to set up a PieFed or Mbin community out of the box, or do they require knowledge of coding?3·7 days agoRegarding PieFed, I believe a community. Lemmy instances wouldn’t really suit what I have in mind. But if I’m beong honest, I haven’t given a lot of thought to which is called what.
Something like this is what I am thinking.
Babalugats@feddit.ukto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube to give banned creators a 'second chance' after rule rollbackEnglish9·8 days agoI wonder what their motivation is. Just a good old change of heart, giving everyone a 2nd chance or possibly something else?
Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Salmon farmer accused of blocking UK investigations into alleged animal rights breachesEnglish1·23 days agoThat just means whatever he is doing, it’s working.
They’ll have to start banning copycats. Probably would have been better for them if they 🤐

Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cardsEnglish2·23 days agoOne of the main points about chat control is that it forces software developers to break their own encryption or face whatever the penalties will be. It is ridiculous and will hopefully be stopped in it’s tracks, unfortunately not enough people know about it, and even of the ones that do, not enough of them understand what it is and how dangerous it is. Basically, the governments have seen how lucrative it has been for the big techs, and how advantageous it can be to control our data. They have seen what the Israeli’s have been able to do with that information and tech. They want in. It has nothing to do with child protection. If it passes, all politicians better be squeakier and cleaner than squeaky clean. With their data not being scanned, we will likely have to watch them ourselves.
Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cardsEnglish21·23 days agoWatch the insurance payouts drop dramatically if these go through. Access to all of your medical history… Insane. Still nothing compared to the proposed EU Chat Control.
Babalugats@feddit.ukto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Cirrus app dev informing the app will stop working on certified android devices in '26/'2758·29 days agoAnd so it continues… Google trying to shoehorn themselves into a position of authority of the internet. Imagine they get as much sway as the banks now have? Private entities controlling the masses for massive profits. Fuck off Google.

The primary purpose of this community is to buy European.
I would’ve thought that was obvious.

He still can’t do it with his mind.
Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Polanski apologises over claim he can increase women’s breast sizes with his mindEnglish7·2 months agoBut if it was the other way around… Mens genetalia are pretty easy to change size of, if the right eyes are looking…

The EU elected are trying to get there before them with chat control. If chat control passes, everyone will have access.

Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Bands pull out from festival after group 'cut off' over Palestine flagEnglish2·2 months agoIt doesn’t matter if enough artists make a stand. It should turn those festivals to beige shit pretty quickly… Even the people you speak of wouldn’t want to attend.
It’s really all down to the artists and whether or not they want to support genocide and profit from it.
Babalugats@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Bands pull out from festival after group 'cut off' over Palestine flagEnglish5·2 months agoExpect festivals to become either a lot tamer and the bands to get in line, or expect a revolt by the artists. These guys could pretty much crush most artists off the live festival circuit. Most of the festivals are pretty small, but they also own Sziget, which is one of the biggest if not the biggest festival in Europe. There has already been a few boycotts for these.
KKR & Co. bought superstruct entertainment, who own and organise this festival with a few others last year for €1.3bn

Many artists backing out of music festivals snapped up by private equity firm KKR
Many Dutch artists are pulling out of festivals owned by the private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR). They don’t agree with the American venture capitalist’s investments, including in companies active in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. They also seem concerned about private equity invading festivals, forcing up ticket prices and food prices, and destroying the vibe.
KKR owns multiple Dutch festivals. DGTL, Mysteryland, Amsterdam Open Air, and Zwarte Cross are among the Dutch festivals that have distanced themselves from their owner in recent days, NOS reports.
The venture capitalist also bought up the British festival organizer Supertruct Entertainment last year. The company owns and operates over 80 festivals in ten countries, including Awakenings and Defqon.1 in the Netherlands, Sziget in Budapest, and Sónar in Barcelona.

Babalugats@feddit.ukOPto Buy European@feddit.uk•UK and EU Government Data to Be Moved Into Google and Microsoft Clouds The Step Opens Access for U.S. Authorities, Deepens Reliance on Single Providers, and Undermines Digital SovereigntyEnglish9·2 months agoAlso the same Von Der Leyen who last month ‘negotiated’ the trade deals that are hugely lopsided in favour of the US, meaning the EU will face much higher tariffs going to US than vice versa. How more people are not calling for her to resign or be forced out is beyond me.
Babalugats@feddit.ukOPto Buy European@feddit.uk•UK and EU Government Data to Be Moved Into Google and Microsoft Clouds The Step Opens Access for U.S. Authorities, Deepens Reliance on Single Providers, and Undermines Digital SovereigntyEnglish17·2 months agoIt’s almost as though things like this never happened:
Microsoft blocked the email account of Chief Prosecutor of the International Court of Justice after Trump’s sanctions. Critics: “We urgently need alternatives.”
US President Donald Trump sanctioned the court in The Hague in February after a panel of ICC judges issued arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes in the Gaza Strip in November.
The court is virtually paralyzed in its work as a result, writes the AP news agency. One reason for this is that it is heavily dependent on service providers such as Microsoft. They had restricted their work for the court because they feared being targeted by the US authorities.
Khan’s bank accounts in his home country of Great Britain were also blocked. Even employees of a civil society organization that plays a central role in gathering evidence and locating witnesses have withdrawn money from US bank accounts to secure it from confiscation.
Thanks, yeah I think I mislabeled instance. I thought instance was the term Lemmy used and Community was the term used in PieFed.
I’m thinking of something along the lines of an old style forum. Sub categories underneath the main forum heading.
Similar to something like this. https://piefed.social/topics
