Love it! All European countries should have one
touwer··on Mistral built a $14B AI empire by not being American
Well, they can train in any country they want. It's the inference and data placement that counts for legal purposes
touwer··on Roblox devs now need a subscription to share their games freely
Capitalism: there is always one more shareholder to satisfy
touwer··on European AI. A playbook to own it
They are making some very good specialised models, like Voxtral
touwer··on HBO Obtains DMCA Subpoena to Unmask 'Euphoria' Spoiler Account on X
I don't believe that is/was the real, complete algorithm. It has no 'boost elon' code
touwer··on Ask HN: European Tech Alternatives?
Digital Sovereignty for Europeans is impossible with US based companies
touwer··on Ask HN: European Tech Alternatives?
Pitty that it only operates on Gcloud. Makes it not European
touwer··on PC Gamer recommends RSS readers in a 37mb article that just keeps downloading
Even more embarassing is that the article adds really nothing to whatever was written before about rss. Probably gobbled up by AI
touwer··on 'Miracle': Europe reconnects with lost spacecraft
I'm glad that this site at least left ~10% of the screen on my phone to read the article, next to all banners and newsletter ads. It's not 5%, great!
touwer··on “Your frustration is the product”
It's crazy, sometimes I get 22 mb, sometimes 27, one time even 57.8!!!
touwer··on Wander – A tiny, decentralised tool to explore the small web
love it!
touwer··on Mouser: An open source alternative to Logi-Plus mouse software
Hardware wise the mx3 is the best mouse for me. The software is dreadful though. It seems more like marketing than software. Nice pictures on the site. Not designed by a team that cares about good software. They should take mos and linearmouse as examples
touwer··on Beyond has dropped “meat” from its name and expanded its high-protein drink line
What a bs. It still grows. Beyond meet was just not unique enough to justify the valuation
touwer··on Mouser: An open source alternative to Logi-Plus mouse software
LinearMouse on macos is also good. With Mos
touwer··on The death of social media is the renaissance of RSS (2025)
Maybe AI slop is the best thing that could happen to the users of old social media. It will get so bad, everyone leaves. Which is better for everyone, except the notorious owners
touwer··on FFmpeg at Meta: Media Processing at Scale
Happily for the ffmpeg machines, it's all lightweight content. Something more heavy would overload them
touwer··on The death of social media is the renaissance of RSS (2025)
Plug for Fiper https://www.fiper.net
touwer··on Payment fees matter more than you think
It's time for Europe to process the own money. Strange that the dominance of Visa/Mastercard/Maestro was left for so long. Of course there is a lobby from them to attack the digital Euro
touwer··on US plans online portal to bypass content bans in Europe and elsewhere
Maybe they can redirect from stupid.gov
touwer··on US plans online portal to bypass content bans in Europe and elsewhere
It's not sad. It's smart to ban hate speech, blatant lies and things like that. We know, we had the Nazis. Seems the US still has to learn a lesson or two, considering the current political situation. Hope it will not be as bad
touwer··on US plans online portal to bypass content bans in Europe and elsewhere
All these strange stories about Europe. Reddit is not blocked in France. I live in Paris and can access it as usual
touwer··on EU bans the destruction of unsold apparel, clothing, accessories and footwear
I wrote about the comments, not about the post
touwer··on EU bans the destruction of unsold apparel, clothing, accessories and footwear
Every time again when it's about Europe, there are lots of commenters here complaining about the Eu or the rules, probably a lot of US commenters aping MAGA sentiments. Of course without solving the problem this law tries to solve. It's soooo easy to complain about something you know nothing about. As if the US is perfect

Did you use an AI to write that?

He's probably smart then
touwer··on Why do RSS readers look like email clients?
This email like tree system was even copied to the small screens of mobile apps. That's one of the main reasons why we built Fiper.net
