Discord Begins Testing Facial Scans for Age Verification in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

We really need more people working on tech that both has great privacy but also simplicity. Currently you always have to pick between convenience or privacy. Everybody that keeps pushing self hosting doesn't get that not everybody has the skills or time to set that up.

I work in IT, I do QA, I write test automation code, I setup CI/CD pipelines but the moment you put me on networking stuff I'm done, gg well played. It's a whole new skillset so if I as someone who grew up and work in a technical job has a hard time with it don't even think its going mainstream.

Now to actually punish them, oh wait that probably won't happen?

I'm not a technical person, can't be bothered for that. In the end for tools like this its important non-tech people can also use it

I've never quit using teamspeak but I'd never see it as an alternative for the chatting functions of discord (neither private or server wide). Calling and screensharing on it is superior for sure, chatting is garbage.

I haven't tried it yet but opening Element in browser it does have a call option

I just checked and indeed it does! Didn't know that before, although I do think Revolt is more user friendly to non-tech people so will probably be a better choice for people to migrate to.

Teamspeak 6 released a month or so ago and has Peer2Peer screenshare, it works great!

Beurzen hebben twee dagen rust, beleggers kijken vooruit naar morgen (nos.nl)

Na twee handelsdagen vol klappen en blauwe plekken op de beurs kunnen beleggers dit weekend bijkomen. Hoewel? Velen zullen zich voorbereiden op morgen, als de beurzen weer opengaan. Houdt de paniek aan door de handelsoorlog die de Amerikaanse president Trump woensdag ontketende?

The Dutch environmental NGO Milieudefensie (Friends of the Earth Netherlands) formally filed a lawsuit today against ING, the largest bank in the Netherlands, challenging the bank’s climate policies. The lawsuit seeks to compel ING to align its financing activities with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement. By taking this action, Milieudefensie hopes to set a precedent for holding financial institutions accountable for their role in financing fossil fuel companies and high-carbon sectors that exacerbate the global climate crisis.

“If we succeed, this will be a major breakthrough in achieving climate stabilization globally,” Donald Pols, director of Milieudefensie, said during a press briefing last week. He noted that ING, as one of the 30 largest banks in the world, has a substantial impact on the broader financial sector.

“Milieudefensie is demanding that ING halve its emissions by 2030 and stop financing companies that start new oil and gas projects,” Pols said.

DigiD wijt uitval van de laatste tijd aan slimmere ddos-aanvallen (nu.nl)

DigiD, het inlogsysteem van de overheid, heeft de laatste weken geregeld last van storingen. Lang duren de problemen doorgaans niet, vervelend zijn ze wel. Ze worden vooral veroorzaakt door nieuwe soorten ddos-aanvallen die lastiger zijn te verdedigen.

EU Search engine incoming: Ecosia is teaming up with Qwant to build a European search index (blog.ecosia.org)
 

For the people who have not yet decided on a search engine. The most EU way you can go is Ecosia or Qwant as they are building their own search index.

Ecosia is my personal pick as its also aimed at planting trees and they have quite a good browser alongside it.

Looking for: EU URL Shortener (Bit.ly alternative) (self.buyfromeu)
 

I don't use it much but I use URL shorteners sometimes. Currently every alternative I can find is US based. Does anybody have any suggestions for EU based URL shortener websites?

My main usage is just having a shorter URL but limited statistics would ideally also be there (mainly amount of clicks per day)
