Sounds more like countries where the advertisement revenue share model of Shitter made this a lucrative income opportunity.

Never missed it 🤷

No, that is a false comparison. Keeping money in the local economy doesn't mean we have to have our own monopolistic surveillance capitalist big-tech companies.

Peertube already supports livestreams. And there is also Owncast, which is a bit easier to selfhost and also federates via ActivityPub.

It is already supported in Peertube and works fine.

This is a misreading of the situation, but I guess it makes for a better headline?

The GDPR etc. only came to be due to a specific political constellation where progressive privacy advocates and nationalistic forces formed an uneasy coalition. But now the political balance has shifted and the respondible EU commissioner has also changed.

Basically what we see now is that the nationalistic forces have rejoined with the neo-liberal ones that promise that if the EU just deregulates the sector hard enough there will be EU based big-tech to compete with the US based ones. This is of course total bollocks and an EU based big-tech wouldn't be significantly better than an US or China based one, but it gets the nationalistic fraction's support.

Maybe more taxes to subsidize oil and gas?

Very, cool. But I can't help to notice the very odd placement of the ethernet ports on that router?

Edit: Ah, I see:

You can apparently play it fine on Linux these days: https://www.protondb.com/app/552500

(Obviously there is no kernel level anti-cheat there).

They have strategic ones, not tactical ones. Tactical ones are those mini-nukes that stupid people think they can use without it becoming a proper nuclear war real quick. Everyone else (including the French) thinks they are a waste of money.

Waste of money and this chair clearly doesn't understand game theory.
