no no, sure most people had adsl in the early 00’s using the pre existing phone network, but on the building new infrastructure front it was in the early 00s fiber really began picking up its stride in most places. If you started building out internet infrastructure in the early 00’s using copper you were way behind the curve.

um, gaming laptop maybe?

Honestly no idea, you have a good point.

its super nice to plug a laptop into a screen and have the cable double as a charging cable for the laptop

We’re also democratic, we should call it the free democratic coalition of states.

Its not like there is any bad precedent in using names like this, like democratic republic of korea, or just referring to USA as “land of the free”…

As a European, I don’t think we can claim exclusive ownership of those concepts.

I can’t get past the fact you rhymed food with shoes.

yeah, only time will tell.

well, for those of us who need stable employment, whole markets going downwards isn’t necessarily very good either

It’s up to the American standards, for what that’s worth.

Honestly, not much.

in a democracy the latter has to be preceded by the former.

Preliminary findings from july

• First, X designs and operates its interface for the “verified accounts” with the “Blue checkmark” in a way that does not correspond to industry practice and deceives users. Since anyone can subscribe to obtain such a “verified” status, it negatively affects users’ ability to make free and informed decisions about the authenticity of the accounts and the content they interact with. There is evidence of motivated malicious actors abusing the “verified account” to deceive users.
• Second, X does not comply with the required transparency on advertising, as it does not provide a searchable and reliable advertisement repository, but instead put in place design features and access barriers that make the repository unfit for its transparency purpose towards users. In particular, the design does not allow for the required supervision and research into emerging risks brought about by the distribution of advertising online.
• Third, X fails to provide access to its public data to researchers in line with the conditions set out in the DSA. In particular, X prohibits eligible researchers from independently accessing its public data, such as by scraping, as stated in its terms of service. In addition, X’s process to grant eligible researchers access to its application programming interface (API) appears to dissuade researchers from carrying out their research projects or leave them with no other choice than to pay disproportionally high fees.
