The administration of US President Joe Biden refuses to transfer long-range ATACMS missiles to Ukraine, despite requests from Kyiv and pressure from US lawmakers.
I’m guessing the US arsenal of ATACMS missiles is rather limited and they have their own reasons for not making it smaller, which they can’t go into detail about. Frustrating, but understandable.
I’m not quite sure, but I would suggest that the latest news about the crimean bridge’s pillar falling down maayyybe be related to Russian engineering?...
It’s disturbing. I deliberately avoid any community hosted on his lemmy.ml instance (the ml stands for Marxist-Leninism). I could certainly not stomach the Ukraine community there.

That is cyclical too; federation is a very old idea. The most popular protocols on the internet used to be federated: IRC and NNTP (Usenet/newsgroups).
This is news from earlier in June but was overshadowed by the SEC lawsuits that came out at the same time.

There are admins and mods and rules on kbin/Lemmy too and in time they might frustrate you here like they did on Reddit. This is a honeymoon phase and everything is great, but things change as communities grow, always.

Bør det offentlige i Norge bruke fediverse til å kommunisere med befolkningen? Sånn for eksempel statsministerenskontor.regjeringen eller vannogavlopsetaten.oslokommune osv
Jeg tenker ja. Det vil gjøre at det offentlige har full kontroll over instansene og ikke trenger å favorisere, eller være avhengig av privateide sosiale medier.
Det offentlige er lovpålagt til å kommunisere på måter som er tilgjengelig for flest mulig. Ofte betyr det å bruke åpne standarder. Det er heldigvis slutt på at man måtte ha lisens på Microsoft Word for å lese kommunale dokumenter – nå brukes PDF. De publiserer også på egne servere jeg antar de har kontroll over. Situasjonen er derfor uproblematisk i mitt skjønn.
Hvis fediverset blir mer populært, må de gjerne bruke det som en ekstra kanal. Akkurat nå får du sikkert plass til alle i den målgruppen i en mellomstor enebolig – det er en enormt marginal plattform. Da vil jeg helst ikke at offentlige instanser skal sette i gang prosjekter for å etablere seg der. Det blir bare masse dyre rådgivere, konsulenter og forprosjekter og budsjettoverskridelser.
Jeg synes heller ikke noen offentlige instanser skal gjøre seg tilgjengelige på proprietære plattformer slik de mest brukte sosiale mediene er. Disse plattformene krever at innbyggerne registrerer seg hos utenlandske selskaper og godtar en masse datainnsamling. Det er ikke noe det offentlige bør sette godkjentstempel på ved å ta det i bruk og ved å oppmuntre folk til å gjøre det samme.
I think it’s related to overloaded instances. I got up real early (CEST) when Americans are mostly asleep, and unsubscribed + resubscribed to the “pending” lemmy.world communities, and now I’m properly subscribed. This did not work during “prime time” yesterday.
All banks and bank-like institutions you might have access to will comply with the same anti money-laundering and know-your-customer regulations. It’s not really up to the individual bank to decide.
The “Swiss bank account” is largely a thing of the past, as they are forced into data-sharing agreements with the United States and possibly others. And even so, you need to be a Swiss national to qualify for a bank account there.
You can use cash as much as possible when it’s an option, of course. It’s less convenient, but privacy often is.
