It’s a meme from a movie. Should they ban this movie now and destroy all copies?

It’s quite funny that in both Germany and Poland McDonald’s is actually one of the most decent places in case of food quality (not amazing taste but one can be sure it won’t cause any health issues) and employees are also treated quite well (for the industry).

In Poland it was popular as a breakfast drink for children in the 1980/1990s when I was a kiddo
sznowicki 2 weeks ago • 100%
Yeah. It’s very popular in Poland among old people. It reminds them their childhood

All Schengen countries are blood based citizenship, so no matter what’s the case in Turkey the kid got a mothers citizenship the moment it’s born.

Even in six months pregnancy it happens that people are born due to reasons. Also my wife was able to fly basically until the end. Doctor had nothing against, airline didn’t really care. It was all Schengen flights tho.

That depends on a country. For Polish consulate it takes few days just to convert the local certificate to Polish one and get PESEL. Then and only then they order a passport that’s being printed in Poland.
Emergency passport would do here tho. Still I’d expect few days at minimum to talk to all those people.

This is what I know for a regular residents outside their home country. Did exactly this with my son. And also know it took us months to get him a passport so we could travel abroad. Must be a nightmare to have prolonged vacation from a week to few months.

So you can cross the border with a proof of birth only? No special agreement with the inbound country?
I’m on vacation in Türkiya and wonder: what happens when let’s say a pregnant woman goes on vacation and for whatever reason gives birth there. How can she take the newborn back to her country? Need to prepare all the papers in the embassy or there’s some special procedure for such cases so the paper work can be done in a country she resides normally?

That’s not totally true. There were lists of local political elites to be killed in Ukraine once they establish control. And this is what happened in Bucha. They wanted to purge all Ukrainians who will have influence under occupation. Occupation that didn’t go according to the plan.

Then some other company will do it. Not all world is US and A. Is some areas like Europe the states would be more than happy to order those vaccines to treat their citizens. There’s demand made by public health organizations, there will be someone willing to join the race and eat that cake.

It had a major security problem in like 2010. Later everyone moved to git and CI/CD so nobody knows what happened after that.

It may not be a pure nonsense. It might be that according to GDPR the company is eligible for some data use but according to telecommunication law needs still consent to even send this data.
Example: company X analyses their traffic on the backend by aggregating logs per user in a anonymised way because they want to know how many users in a given country uses their product Y. They can do it without any consent as the data is in their system anyway and it is a legitimate interest to know facts about their own product.
Now they want to enrich this by tracking whether the user clicked a homepage banner or a footer link in order to open that product page. This tracking is made on the browser with javascript by sending an AJAX request with a click event. This is still valid for GDPR but not for telecom law that says (German example from TTDSG) you're not allowed to send anything from a user device unless it's required for service or you have consent.
Then this kind of consent would make sense.
In the OP example I go with bullshit though. It's most likely pretending to be compliant while breaking the law.

Ever heard about chargeback? Credit card is supreme in terms of protection against scams.
One thing I miss from Twitter that Mastodon has only partially is to be able to search through the network for some keywords, like breaking news, events, and so on, so I can see other people takes on that. So I made a small project that aims to fill this gap. I've seen some previous attempts that made many people upset, I hope this time nobody will take their forks and pitches to burn me as it's: - calling mastodon instances public local timelines via their API - takes only posts that are made by accounts that OPT-IN to being indexed (there's noindex flag that I honor) - keeps the posts in database for a short time (currently one hour) to avoid abuse and also to lower costs of running it It gives me a lot of fun and for me it's quite useful, so I guess someone might find it useful as well. Also, it's open source, but GPL license so it stays FOSS forever. Happy to take any feedback, also happy to add some instances that are not yet being listened to. It turns out opt-in people are not that many so adding even large instances doesn't make my server belly up. Instances: https://github.com/Kukei-eu/kukei-masto/blob/main/server/instances.js

Shameless self promo: I was upset by this as well so I’m working now on a curated search engine just for anything related to webdev. It focuses on blogs and docs. No BS, just high quality sources.
Also it’s hosted on a PC in my living room ;)

Service shows you a code that you scan with your device. This code transfers some challenge and information where to send a response. Your device checks if you’re you and then sends a response telling the server you try to log in that hey this guys is indeed the guy, here’s the problem I solved using my private key (asynchronous encryption).

Stuttering is a failure connection between brain, lungs and mouth. Has nothing to do with hands so no, sign language people don’t stutter.
Source: I stutter since 4yo and spent a lot of time with other stuttering people helping them.

I keep my drives encrypted with a key currently hosted in my router hoping they wouldn’t steal that. I’m thinking of actually putting it to cloud so I can disable it remotely.
It was quite a ride to make everything work and I made a blog post explaining it so I remember what I did.

Orlen ist sehr populär (Tankstelle) in Polen, mit "französischen Hotdogs", die sind auch sehr populär. Seit ein paar Jahren, eröffnet Orlen viele neue Tankstellen in DE unter "Star" Brand. Tankstellen sind gleich wie diese in Polen, sonst gibt es kein polnisches Essen wie z.B. Hotdogs. Auch kein polnisches Bier.

This is more European thing. At least it’s same or similar in Poland and Scandinavia. In Poland you can own a forest but you’re not allowed to fence it nor deny entry and mushroom picking. Also in Poland it’s not even that easy to cut a tree. Even in your own backyard. Unless it’s a fruit tree.

French troops are actually already on the ground though. Recently it’s been discovered that France sent a radio-electronic warfare hardware to Ukraine that’s operating near the front lines. With the troops that are operating it. Although not officially French but some French foreign legions troops assigned for this mission, so totally not French. Just troops that you can buy in a troop shop.

So, in the era of increasingly good AI powered tools and general search engines full of SEO spam, last week I started creating something little old school and against the trends. For now It's a have-fun-and-find-out project that main aim is to provide good search results for general web development queries with a special focus on independent blog authors. The thesis is that no SEO spam website is in the index, which will already filter out most annoying noise on Google/Bing. Search results are grouped per type: docs, blogs and magazines (e.g. blog platforms or bigger websites). For now it's far from being done in terms of having a full index, but in most cases it already replaces my go-to search engine when I'm looking up some stuff during work. I'm looking forward hearing out what y'all think and if you think it makes sense overall I can only encourage you to post some links to blogs or docs that are still missing in the index. I'm more than happy to add it to the crawler. Responds like: "nei, total shit, who would need that" also accepted but constructive critique more appreciated ;) EDIT: everyone many thanks for all your voices and comments. I'm super grateful for all of them and happy that we have such place like Lemmy!

I wonder if others also have this feeling that during evenings smurfs are more prominent. I’m silver 3 for some time and when I play during lunchtime I win all the games. Not super easily but I win them. Then I go up in ranking and in the evening when I play again I see a drastic increase of skill in my opponents. Which makes me barely win or loose and then I go down again few slots. I have to say it’s quite annoying and I consider not playing competitive any more during late hours to finally be able to jump to gold.
Lahn is perfect for kayaking. Well maintained infrastructure, amateur friendly and god those views are amazing. Unfortunately our initial 2-day-trip plan converted into one day due to weather collapse but was still fun.
