You're right, but I was under the impression the it's the latest complete version of the document because all the proposed changes to it were in really short documents.

Anyway, the PDF you posted has some of the changes already applied so I recommend everybody to read that document instead.

I only read the changes that were proposed to be made to article 13 (on first glance they made it into the version you posted without any further changes) so I can't really comment on article 11. However I will say that I find it completely bizarre that people believe posting a link could ever require a license in Europe (or that any EU member state would define the title of an article to be a snippet of that article).

Here's the final document: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL...

Searching for "article 11" (the link one) and "article 13" (the filter one) will help you find the relevant paragraphs. They're both very short and fairly easy to understand.

> With the wording, it's better for the site to delete more content on false positives than risk false negatives.

What makes you say that? Last time I read parts of it I got the impression that if you're trying to get it right you're not liable.

The braking the embargo part is about the FPU issue that they published a patch for a few days before Theo gave the talk.

The part you're referencing is Theo speculating about the next bug. He suspects fixing it requires flushing a cash line but he doesn't know which one (because he doesn't know where the bug is) so he proposes flushing all of them until the bug is published and then removing the flushes that aren't necessary.

He then mentions the last serious OpenSSH bug. Instead of publishing a fix for the bug (and thus disclosing the bug) they decided to publish a patch that moved a bunch of code around and just happened to also make the buggy code unreachable. Then they told everybody to upgrade and once that happened they could safely disclose the bug and publish a fix for it. No embargo necessary and everybody got the fix at the same time. (I assume that's why he brought it up.)

I'm pretty sure people respect him despite being rude, not because of it.

Over 20 million lines of code even. But you only run 1.5 to 3 million.

According the a German news site one of these functions can be used to disable some kind of filter system which causes higher nitrogen oxide emissions.

According to the YouTube video embedded in the article he wanted to sell the game and he was afraid that the price would drop when the rip were available outside of the private torrent site.

Does anybody here know when the videos will be up?

The title is kind of misleading considering that the article clearly states that GDPR doesn't apply to European institutions. (Apparently European institutions are "'separate' from GDPR for 'legal reasons'" and "subject to a new law that 'mirrors' GDPR which will come into effect in the autumn".)

What happened?

All you need to do is click on the little wifi icon in the status bar (or go to preferences -> network connections).

Why wouldn't you just write a command line tool that strips the color escapes and then set up aliases like alias ag='ag | nocolor' or whatever. Seems much easier than trying to convince every developer out there to support your environment variable.

You don't have to look back too far though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

If this draft passes tech companies "storing and giving access to large amounts of works and other subject-matter uploaded by their users" would be liable for copyrighted content that is shared on their platforms.

They can (but aren't forced to) avoid that liability by making "best efforts to prevent the availability of specific works or other subject matter by implementing effective and proportionate measures, [...], to prevent the availability on its services of the specific works or other subject matter identified by rightholders and for which the rightholders have provided the service with relevant and necessary information for the application of these measures" and "upon notification by rightholders of works or other subject matter, it has acted expeditiously to remove or disable access to these works".

There's also some stuff in there saying these measures should be "effective and proportionate", taking into account how big the company is, how much content is uploaded on their platform and the availability, cost and effectiveness of the measures.

DENIC (the folks who handle the German .de domain) doesn't expose owner and admin-c via whois anymore. If you want/need that information you have to use their web interface which sends the data over TLS, requires you to solve a captcha and implements rate-limiting.

Census data in particular. Edwin Black wrote a book about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

Paying cash and using a loyalty card for your day-to-day shopping and then not using it at your local pharmacy, sex-shop or whatever is exactly the same thing as using Chrome for your day-to-day browsing and Tor Browser for looking up that weird thing on your foot, or closing your curtains when you change your clothes.

Talked to my mother the other day. She works at a tiny local (German) home care company. (That means 5 middle-aged women in an office and a bunch of nurses on wheels.) They've been ready for GDPR for a year now, including sending their new data officer to the required seminars and whatnot.

I think it's this one: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Cousine

"Kissen" (German for "pillow") and "cushion" have the same origin. The old french word "cuissin", meaning "cushion for the hip" (comes from "coxa" which is "hip" in Latin).

"Pillow" apparently comes from the old Germanic word "pyle" or "pylu" which is based on the Latin word "pulvinus" (meaning "cushion").

This is obviously pretty weird and stupid on many levels, but there is one interesting fact hidden in one of the authors responses. They ended up in this (really just incredibly stupid) situation because they use feature detection and non-standard features only available in Chrome (or WebKit maybe).

Google Analytics drops the last octet IIRC. Hashing isn't anonymizing because the hash can later be used to re-identify a user. (See https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/refo...)

I don't think that's possible. Do you have a source to back that up? (Also, they don't automatically result in a charge.)

"Abmahnungen" are cease and desist letters by the way.

I'm not sure what you're implying here but allowing somebody to connect to your site obviously doesn't qualify as providing goods/services. The actual legal text makes that pretty clear.

"Whereas the mere accessibility of the controller's, processor's or an intermediary's website in the Union, of an email address or of other contact details, [...], is insufficient to ascertain such intention, [...]" (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL...)

Who cares? Me posting my (very German) name and address on somebody else's website (blog comment, forum or whatever) doesn't magically make that person have to comply with GDPR.

According to [1] the law applies to:

1.) a company or entity which processes personal data as part of the activities of one of its branches established in the EU, regardless of where the data is processed; or

2.) a company established outside the EU offering goods/services (paid or for free) or monitoring the behaviour of individuals in the EU.

The internet archive doesn't offer goods or services in the EU (if you want to know how that's defined you have to read the actual law I'm afraid) and they're certainly not "monitoring the behaviour of individuals in the EU".

Doesn't matter. Using the English language doesn't imply that you're offering goods or services to individuals in the EU.

Why would GDPR apply to the internet archive? It's a US based nonprofit. As far as I can tell they don't do anything that even remotely hints at them providing services to EU residents (like offering their site in European languages, having the €-symbol somewhere on their donations page or any of the other more subtle things mentioned in GDPR).

AFAIK homebrew-cask doesn't compile anything, it just downloads the dmg and copies the app for you so that you don't have to mount the dmg and drag the app bundle to your applications folder yourself.

They'll probably update their repository as soon as the GIMP devs release a 2.10 dmg (at which point you might as well download it yourself).

You can download the source code and follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.
