Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Dutch intelligence report: Russia’s sabotage in Europe borders on state terrorismEnglish5·6 days agoWhy the classification of “borders on state terrorism” rather than actually being classified as such?
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Reeves suggests UK-EU trade more important than US deal ahead of Washington talksEnglish1·6 days agoWhile breaking the agreement? If they’re breaking the agreement, what difference does it make where it comes from?
Mislabeling would be a problem no matter what they trade. And ultimately sabotage any trade deals.
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Reeves suggests UK-EU trade more important than US deal ahead of Washington talksEnglish1·7 days agoHaving trade deals on both sides doesn’t man you can ship whatever from one to the other.
They can trade over set of things with one, and another set with the other.
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Digital Identities and the Future of Age Verification in EuropeEnglish2·7 days agoIf my gov creates a digital cert of age and signs it then I should be able to use that and the service provider can verify against gov public key, no? No information of visit exchanged.
As an alternative I also expect it to be possible via zero knowledge proof https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-knowledge_proof
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Digital Identities and the Future of Age Verification in EuropeEnglish5·7 days agoIsn’t that a matter of implementation whether they even receive this information or not during validation?
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•New smartphone labels for battery life and repairability are coming to the EUEnglish21·8 days agoLol that drop icon
Reads “A drop” or “B dropped”
And is so expressive I can hear the crack - even though it’s a shock resistance rather than crack-ability.

If you have a passport, citizenship, or birth certificate your age is already documented.
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•AfD is the most popular party in Germany for the first time, with a record 26%English1·8 days agoI’ve seen some negative reporting on afd Landesregierung, where we can see them act in power. Unfortunately I can’t point to any right now.
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Teenage German tourists deported from Hawaii over ‘suspicious’ hotel bookingEnglish71·10 days agoIt is very silly right now to admit you wanted to work on a tourist visa.
Where did they admit that?
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Teenage German tourists deported from Hawaii over ‘suspicious’ hotel bookingEnglish121·10 days agoAbout having no bookings yet, that part was always sketchy. I went 15 years ago to the US for a 4 week trip and had only lined up the first hostel for a few days, the rest I had not planned yet, luckily got no questions but worried about it back then already… Guess this is a thing of the past now.
Huh? You base “was always sketchy” on your personal feelings doing that yourself 15 years ago?
I really don’t see what’s sketchy about not booking four weeks ahead.
I’m more of a planner, but my grandparents get in their car and drive through and around Italy without a single stay pre-planned.
I don’t see how that’s suspicious or sketchy at all.

Languages: English (US and UK).
InstaText uses advanced language technologies, but not generative AI, to suggest recommendations and ideas for improving text clarity and readability.
With regard to differences to Grammarly and the like:
The main function of Grammarly and similar tools is proofreading. They mainly check your text for spelling and grammar and do not offer suggestions for in-depth editing. Therefore, InstaText is the ideal choice for those who want to improve the clarity, style, and readability of their texts with more detailed suggestions.
All data is transmitted to their servers. As per policy, not used for anything other than offering the suggestions. They strongly recommend not to submit any personal data though:
Please note that we strongly advise you not to use our text improvement service for texts that contain personal data of any kind.
The website uses Google Analytics.

Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Apple’s about to be hit with new EU penalty, but it’s been delayed for now - 9to5MacEnglish2·13 days agoIt isn’t.
You don’t want Trump to throw a tantrum when you go there to negotiate something mostly unrelated, so you delay the announcement.
Kissaki@feddit.orgto Europe@feddit.org•Europe's race to rearm is pointless if its adversaries are waging war onlineEnglish5·16 days agoI absolutely agree with that. The algorithms are one of the significant promoters of destabilization, propaganda, disorientation, and manipulation, by platforms and by other parties making use of them.
It is essential for the EU to regulate them. Through transparency and requirements, and adequate consequences.
It was one of my points in the EU survey response and content about it here on Lemmy https://feddit.org/post/10253134/5842417

The rest is limited. If you legitimate them through participation, you risk them being seen more acceptable a reasonable option.
