Does the GDPR still apply to the UK after Brexit? I thought it was a EU law.

Finally a valid FOSS translator!

Cash is used to buy most illegal shit. Which doesn't mean we should abolish cash. And if you can't see the risks in governments and corporations tracking every little expense of yours, well you have a very low threat model. But don't assume that anonymous transactions and tools are only useful to criminals, because minorities, journalists and whistleblowers use them every day to avoid prosecution under authoritarian governments.

The airline might require this travel authorization at check-in, though.

Sad. I am with Chile's president on this. His words:

In this place, the situation in Ukraine has been under discussion. I think it is important that those of us from Latin America say clearly: what is happening in Ukraine is an unacceptable war of imperial aggression where international law is being violated… I understand that the joint declaration is blocked today because some do not want to say that the war is against Ukraine. Dear colleagues, today it is Ukraine, but tomorrow it could be any of us.

Also, I found the article took a very deliberate stand against the "Collective West". People at Naked Capitalism might not like the collective west (whatever it means) but this doesn't change the fact that the only countries not condemning Russia for its war of aggression are China, various dictatorships scattered here and there and South America, for selfish geopolitical reasons.

And also, let's stop gaslighting readers about NATO and its expansion to justify Russia's invasion. Countries have all the rights to prepare to defend themselves, and this does not justify their neighbors to attack them on their soil.

The taxi lobby is to blame, there are definitely too few licenses. Also, try finding a taxi driver that accepts credit card payments or is ok with giving you a fiscally valid receipt. Good luck! Whenever I fly there, I always rent a car exactly to avoid having to deal with them. Plus, since competition is non existent, they are also crazy expensive.

Been on lemmy.world since around 10 days and I've already noticed a significant increase in activity. Pretty exciting! I tried wefwef but for some reason scrolling doesn't work so well on my smartphone, Jerboa is great and I think I'll stick to it, for now.

They tricked the cleaners with the artificial view in their suit, exactly so that they would clean the sensor to show people in the Silo how nice it was outside.

If you take somebody's drugs from them and they have to go find a new supply, they are not able to dose themselves at all on that new supply and their overdose risk increases dramatically
