The feddituk admins didn't ignore it, they did answer. They just decided to not do anything, so blahaj defederated in response to protect their users, which is the specific reason for the instance to exist.

One should also note that their approach of "letting it sort out itself" is just admitting that they don't actively moderate the instance, which poses a danger to all federated instances

Damn, the render distance is so small over there

You got your numbers mixed around.

1m liters/340m men = 0.00294 liters per day

That's just under 3ml, which is very little, but still seems high. Assuming that not every man is using only the urinal, the number per urinal usage is even higher. But I also don't know american public bathrooms, are they that filthy?

Cybernews researchers have found that BDSM People, CHICA, TRANSLOVE, PINK, and BRISH apps had publicly accessible secrets published together with the apps’ code.

All of the affected apps are developed by M.A.D Mobile Apps Developers Limited. Their identical architecture explains why the same type of sensitive data was exposed.

What secrets were leaked?

• API Key
• Client ID
• Google App ID
• Project ID
• Reversed Client ID
• Storage Bucket
• GAD Application Identifier
• Database URL

[...] threat actors can easily abuse them to gain access to systems. In this case, the most dangerous of leaked secrets granted access to user photos located in Google Cloud Storage buckets, which had no passwords set up.

In total, nearly 1.5 million user-uploaded images, including profile photos, public posts, profile verification images, photos removed for rule violations, and private photos sent through direct messages, were left publicly accessible to anyone.

So the devs were inexperienced in secure architectures and put a bunch of stuff on the client which should probably have been on the server side. This leaves anyone open to just use their API to access every picture they have on their servers. They then made multiple dating apps with this faulty infrastructure by copy-pasting it everywhere.

I hope they are registered in a country with strong data privacy laws, so they have to feel the consequences of their mismanagement

Additional context: every time he points to the side hes talking directly to the politicians of the AFD, a far right, russia aligned party which heavily profited off of russian disinformation campaigns in the last election cycle

Just so you know, "Bild" is a german right wing magazine. Imagine fox news as a newspaper. They are well known to report false information to smear left wing initiatives and further hurt victims if they are left wing. Since the victims of police brutality here are apparently pro-palastine, Bild cannot be trusted to report accurately

Not that directly, but saying they have "zero worth" might be against GG Article 1

Human dignity is inviolable

Pretty sure dehumanizing can be prosecuted under this, even if its rather tame. Also there have been some laws over the last few years that criminalize violent speech on the internet and that give people the ability to report comments directly to agencies. These might make it quite dangerous for the instance to keep up these comments.

I assure you, German leftist often say way more intense stuff on a daily basis, but not on publicly hosted servers

I feel like flirting isn't really something people do while dating nowadays. I (and probably some other women) find it more annoying if you wanna get to know the other person. Most flirting I like is after you're already in a relationship, because you can be sure that the other person is safe and not a creep. Of course you still need to find a way to show interest

feddit.org is a German hosted instance that has to abide by the German law. By that law, your comment falls into a grey-zone of legality. As much as I agree with you, they were right in removing your comment, as they are legally obligated to. They could get into trouble if they don't.

To quote the feddit.org sidebar:

Content that is illegal in Germany, Austria or Switzerland will be deleted and can lead to an immediate ban of the account.

This might be a controversial opinion, but please hear me out: this guy is absolutely overhyped.

I saw the entire ZA/UM situation from the outside without having ever played Disco Elysium before, so I don't have any stake or bias in what happened. In my personal opinion there are 2 important notes: Yes, Kurvitz is responsible for the creation of one of the best games of all time. He also is a massive asshole who abuses his workers. Both of these can be true and don't contradict each other.

I can really recommend the Documentation by People Make Games about it, I think they made great and very neutral reporting on it, getting everybody's side of the story. But one think becomes increasingly clear throughout the video: the original creator is a huge egomaniac.

I came to dislike him the more I heard him talk. He spouts how he comes from this underground punk scene, but also betrays every value that he should hold. He doesn't think his workers are important and that they should just endure his wrath at all times. He doesn't see how multiple people can be of importance to a project besides him of course. As soon as the money came in he threw every value he said he'd hold aside to become a huge capitalist, even going so far as making his own shell company that preemptively held the rights to a sequel just so he can profit from it more.

This entire situation is his fault. A "punk" ignores all his anticapitalist values, gives all his intellectual property to a capitalist, capitalism ensues and he becomes bitter because he didn't get a greater slice of the pie.

Let me be clear: I think a sequel should involve him. But I also believe he shouldn't be in a lead game designer position, more of a "lead story designer/writer". He has shown to not be all to competent in that and he WILL abuse his workers again. Somebody needs to be above him to manage his insanity.

Nothing against you, but I think endlessly hyping him up won't lead to that or even a good outcome. He will squander everything that he will be given. He is not a good person, he is a "Rockstar Developer" and I mean that as an insult.

Can't you run it locally because it's open source? Like yeah, don't implement software running on servers you don't control, duh! Same thing is true with ChatGPT, with the exception that you cannot run that yourself, so Deepseek is actually safer for companies. All these products that just send requests to Open AI servers are stupid anyways. They are working closely with a fascist government now, you really want your personal data to go through them?

If you leave out the 9% of undecided voters, the poll is 93.4% against joining the US.

But the poll is also just a representative sample of 497 people, just about 0.88% of the greenland population. So an actual vote might be very different. The poll claims to have an uncertainty between "1.9 and 4.4 percentage points", so the result could be as high as 98% against joining the US
