European CEOs are starting to publish their intentions to use EU products

Let’s back our own EU Tech industry. At & The Big Fish, we’re exploring a move to European IT solutions, like; • TUXEDO OS (instead of Windows) • ONLYOFFICE (instead of Microsoft Office) • Nextcloud Hub, EU-hosted (instead of Google Drive) Admittedly a bit opportunistic and I know large organizations can’t pivot like this easily. But SMEs and startups can! Using this stack or joining this movement? Drop your thoughts or tips below! #europeantech #cloud #digitalsovereignty #executivesearch #gdpr #buylocal Marloes Pomp Techleap TUXEDO Computers GmbH ONLYOFFICE Nextcloud www.andthebigfish.com

They even want to buy computers from [@tuxedocomputers](https:

  • It is the company's responsability for people dumping the plastic. If they made as much publicity for responsible disposal as they do for comsumption of their products, people would be better. They can also produce less or in better recipients.

  • The company makes the plastic bottles, which don't need to be plastic, and then uses marketing to promote consumption. The people are not to blame for being exploited by the scheme of the corporations. If this company stopped existing tomorrow, I'm sure people would consume less just from the lack of advertisement.

    Schleswig-Holstein, one of Germany’s 16 states, on Wednesday confirmed plans to move tens of thousands of systems from Microsoft Windows to Linux. The announcement follows previously established plans to migrate the state government off Microsoft Office in favor of open source LibreOffice.

  • I'd argue agents often participate willingly because they are conditioned to view the people as enemies threatening their lives. The phrase "just following orders" is used afterwards to ease guilt and shift responsibility.

  • Firstly, do you mean only animals aren't possessions? What about all other things and resources?

    Secondly, are you saying people should do they best to keep consumption to a minimum, while surviving themselves? Does this mean we could let all animals die and stop existing because we have no use for them, or should we do our best to maintain biodiversity and life on this planet?

  • Immigration helps the common man by filling low level positions that most natives will not take. A lot of immigrants don't know the local language and/or the local culture, so it is fair that they take free, unwanted jobs.

    Further, there are a lot of protections for the workers, including immigrants, meaning wages and working conditions do not fall below acceptable standards. Immigrants strengthen the core pillars of industry, which might even lead to an increase in productivity and better conditions. They contribute to the economy and help pay public services which benefits the broader community.

  • Look, I understand AI, in general, not just LLM, is very powerful and research is needed to develop better models. However, people and media need to stop presenting every random research project as the NEW BIG THING, as that will just make non-technical people confused and lead to unnecessary hysteria.

    Stop hammering not-nails with not-hammers.

    You can either use road space efficiently, or you can have cars.

    Transporting 200 people:

    🚌 in busses (0:31 minutes)

    🚋 in trams (0:32 minutes)

    🚶 walking (0:38 minutes)

    🚲 biking (1:59 minutes)

    🚗 driving (4:08 minutes 😱)

  • Recently, I have also been seeing people talking about Anubis (GitHub) to block bots.

    Weigh the soul of incoming HTTP requests using proof-of-work to stop AI crawlers.

    In most cases, you should not need this and can probably get by using Cloudflare to protect a given origin. However, for circumstances where you can't or won't use Cloudflare, Anubis is there for you.

  • Junior compiler writers exist.

    You can have a junior write compiler code, but you won't have a junior compiler writer. It's a very specific niche topic which does not have the demand for this.

    They don't teach CLIs and git and debugging in uni.

    Well, they do. Version control is extremly useful for doing projects especially in groups and debugging is a necessary tool for building systems. These are not the main topic of the courses, but they are taught and practically mandatory.
