That makes sense. But in that case, why doesn’t apple impose data privacy standards on cars that want to integrate CarPlay? It would still allow car manufacturers to design their own software. I’m not sure I’d trust CarPlay to safely operate all of the sensors and displays in a car. What if the speedometer freezes for example? Or if the car suddenly detects a car in front of it (that doesn’t exist) and brakes because of it? It just seems like a really bad idea to grant such levels of control of the car to CarPlay, which isn’t evaluated to the same level as standard built-in car software is (afaik).
Or, better yet, Apple should lobby for comprehensive data privacy laws in the style of GDPR, which would at least help resolve these privacy issues industry-wide. And, to their credit, it seems like they are to an extent. My opinion is that hardware car functions, such as air conditioning, windshield wipers, seat warming, etc. should be managed by the car software, and navigation and music should be managed by CarPlay. Though of course opinions may differ here.
Considering that Apple in the future is going to require even tighter integration with CarPlay (including handing over control to all screens and sensors to CarPlay), which Tesla may not like.
Prosecutors described [the next generation of CarPlay] insidiously as taking “over all of the screens, sensors, and gauges in a car, forcing users to experience driving as an iPhone-centric experience if they want to use any of the features provided by CarPlay.”
I think that if, in good faith, the person is unable to accept more CSAM due to the fact that their hard drive is full, there isn’t an issue. The intent of the law is that, it someone knows something is CSAM, they need to report it. I don’t think the government is going to come hard on Lemmy server owners unwittingly receiving CSAM through federation (though they certainly would want them to report and take down the CSAM on their servers)
Be careful with this though. I think I remember some jurisdictions require server owners not to delete CSAM and report it instead. Verify that you aren’t obligated to keep it before deleting it
Apple just claimed an exception. It’s still up to the EU to determine whether it is actually exempt or not.
I’m not just talking about faster. Over long distances flying is often almost an order of magnitude faster, significantly cheaper, more reliable (trans-continental rail journeys often involve tricky connections between different rail carriers), and much easier to book (for example, try booking a flight between Amsterdam and Bucharest, and then a train ticket). There are some connections where rail makes sense right now, but definitely not all connections.
Airlines are also obligated to pay compensation if their flights are delayed, railway companies are too under certain circumstances but the amounts are far lower and this doesn’t cover separate tickets, which are often needed to travel on these very long railway journeys.
But I think we’re in agreement that it shouldn’t be this way. In situations where taking the train takes merely 2x as long as flying instead of 10x as long, it should definitely be the preferred option. Now the goal is to expand international railway connections, extend the railway compensation rights to make the trip safer to book, and provide a pan-European ticketing system that shows the lowest prices and allows all connections on a single ticket.
Unfortunately the train routes from the Netherlands to, say, Portugal, Spain, Italy, or eastern Europe are not well developed enough yet. The train is great in the directions of Paris, Frankfurt, Berlin, and London, but beyond that it often takes longer than flying and often requires multiple tickets

Bulgaria, Cyprus, and Romania are still not on the US Visa Waiver Program list, despite being EU members. So there is still no full reciprocity between the EU and US on visa-free access.
Docker is a container platform. Docker Engine is the container host for Linux and Docker Desktop uses a virtual machine to run Docker Engine and containers in that VM.
For example, if you use Docker Desktop on Windows, Docker Desktop will run Docker Engine in a WSL2-based VM and then run containers inside that.
Yeah but Docker Desktop uses a VM, either in WSL2 or Hyper-V. Docker Engine on Linux doesn’t use a VM and that’s what’s typically used for hosting services.
I would like to see a connection to PeerTube. I’m not exactly sure how it works but it might work here
Yeah I can see this being an issue with the fediverse in general. There really is no ability to completely block someone or remove them from the fediverse. Some see this as a benefit, some see this as an issue.
Lemmy allows other instances by default, so nothing stops a bad actor from just spamming instances on subdomains to harass or spam. I just hope we don’t end up with a system where instances are defederated by default because then that will seriously fragment the community.
Beehaw defederated from a couple specific Lemmy servers, not Lemmy overall.
Beehaw’s instance page lists instances they have blocked.
I like the increase in competition, but my concern is for the 90+% of users who really don’t know what they’re doing. Can we be sure that all these alternative app stores will properly enforce security through their apps? At least the iOS app store and Google Play have some standards regarding apps that are actual malware, but could we trust every company to do this?
The “anti-consumer” approach of restricting apps that violate standards may very well be the best one for most people. I support the DMA and the right to sideload but I’m concerned about the impact it will have. Maybe we’ll go back to the early 2000s days of PC malware.
I’m glad to have moved from a country where taxes and (high) expected tips are on top of the price, to a country where tax is included in the price and tips are usually not expected. It makes a surprising difference in affordability when you can actually buy a €5 item with €5.
As soon as companies started asking for tips at self check-out, it became obvious that it’s just a way of trying to underpay their staff and shift that responsibility on the customer.
