  • Note the vote was withdrawn, not actually voted against. They’re pushing this for a later date because there was no majority.

    “The EU Council did not make a decision on chat control today, as the agenda item was removed due to the lack of a majority, (…)

    Belgium’s draft law, (…) was instead postponed indefinitely. (…) Belgium cannot currently present a proposal that would gain a majority. In July, the Council Presidency will transfer from Belgium to Hungary, which has stated its intention to advance negotiations on chat control as part of its work program.




  • I’ve been drinking a lot of coffee lattely and I don’t even like coffee. It’s just that I add a lot of milk to it so it tastes kind of decent.

    I’m on my way to my fifth cup mug today.

    I’ve also recently developed an inability to fall asleep at night as quickly as I used to. I should probably go back to tea but every time I try I hear the coffee jar whispering in my ear “come to me or you’ll regret it” and since I’m not a confrontational individual I kind of just go with it.






  • An extension would allow me to use FF as I usually do for all sites except for list-of-blocked-sites-in-EU that the extension would work its magic on to allow data through. Also, I wouldn’t have to look for a secure proxy myself and it would work (hopefully) on FF for mobile devices.

    (Right now I’m using Tor which was already suggested in a different comment. The effort of having to open Tor is small but I was wondering whther an extension like Censor Tracker existed.)

    I suppose a proxy could work. Ideally I would have multiple proxies working within the same profile like

    • Proxy 1 for websites A, B, C (uni proxy so I can access papers)
    • Proxy 2 for websites E, F, G (Russia proxy so I can read EU-blocked stuff)
    • Rest goes unproxied.







  • My use case for this is that I only subscribe to communities related to tech to keep my core feed clean. Specially during short breaks during work hours I don’t want to open Jerboa and bump into other stuff. But I have other interests, like most people.

    So it would be nice to have a feed of communities focused on politics even though I’m not subscribed to those communities. And another one focused on random interests like documentaries, books, etc (which I’m not subscribed to either).

    I believe this should be part of the back end though, and not a frontend-only thing, in order to have sync between clients (like smartphone, tablet, PC). Having to redo lists in each frontend would be a pain when lists can have many dozens of entries. (During the dark ages of reddit I remember hitting the 100 limit at some point.)
