This client looks interesting but community groups seem to be very WIP at the moment. Posts in those groups are sorted by community (some arbitrary amount is pulled), then requested order (new, hot etc) and it takes ages to load so it's probably not very threaded. Regardless, this looks promising and I'll keep my eye on it - thanks!

Look into OpenCore Legacy Patcher. I updated my GFs 2012 Air to Ventura and it's running okay. A bit clunky around MacOS updates since you have to specifically run patcher again to get graphics acceleration again but otherwise fine. It's definitely worth it for security updates.

Building complex systems involving humans is hard because humans are flawed. The best thing we've come up so far are systems involving extensive checks and balances to prevent thing happening too rapidly and without necessary oversight and even then it's a tricky part to balance.

For the record, I'm not for entirely cashless society but organisations that are cash heavy have proven to be source of many headaches. There is a balance to be found on thresholds and barring some types of businesses from using cash and where digital money transfer is required. Banks and other money transfer entities will have to deal with scenarios where malicious parties will try to obfuscate their intent outside of those thresholds.

This is all technically true but cash is not the answer.

Right now there are so many easily accessible ways for governments to spy on people (cell phone geolocation, call metadata monitoring) that I'm not sure that for the purposes you think of you aren't screwed already anyway. From this perspective fight for cash use becomes a bit theoretical.

The only people that I know of personally that are strongly for cash are either people that frequently skirt around taxes ("minor" stuff like car repair shops) and unfortunately conspiracy nuts. Genuine privacy oriented people exist but realistically the majority will be there for selfish reasons.

The societal cost of tax evasion, money laundering and financing organisations that legally require transparency (political orgs, NGOs etc) are massive and immediate.

What we really need is strong oversight of institutions, government transparency, rule of law and healthy democracy. Those are the things you want to enshrine in your constitution.

It's easy - tax evasion, money laundering, secret financing of things you wouldn't want others to know. All perfectly fine reasons to fight for.

I've heard it's an issue with PWAs on Android but it's fixed in the Play Store version (released yesterday/today).

I wouldn't reinvent the wheel and borrow r/Europe rules as a starting point.

Maybe do a little bit more proactive moderation to that community. r/Europe threads could sometimes go off the rails and had cleanup many hours later - I think it's OK to lock down before that happens (is locking posts a thing on Lemmy?).

Another approach is to keep rules simple and do a complete philosophy and rule walkthrough separately. I penned this monstrosity for polish subreddit back in the day (linking to archived version since I left since then and it got some meh updates in the meantime).

Yet another approach is to have a philosophy page like Tildes does. It's clear enough that you disallow assholery and bigotry but community like this definitely needs submission rules on top anyway.

That's surprising given how close you are to recreational use legalization. Here in Poland MM is legal but we don't have any producers and get fair chunk from Germany (Aurora Deutschland, 420 Pharma).

At the same time medical marijuana business got so silly that you basically go to a website, fill out a form, pay ~€20 fee and get an e-prescription in a couple of hours. There's been some ineffective attempts at cracking down on it in the past weeks that resulted in slight fee increase.

Medical marijuana is legal in Germany. If OP needs it for health reasons he could go through legitimate process.

THC will cause anxiety and paranoia if your tolerance is low or you use particularly stimulating cannabis strain. This is where CBD is very useful because it decreases psychedelic effect. You can use either a balanced strain (equal or similar THC / CBD content) or supplement CBD in other form.

Huh? You can Airplay those. Not sure what do you want to stream there that would be a better experience than downloading it outright from Usenet or torrents.

Chromecast is fine for what it is and a very good value but it does not compete with Apple TV or Nvidia Shield.

Whoa, this looks awesome and I do have always on server for Usenet/Plex and Homebridge.

Thanks!

[edit] Installed and working great but I had to change os.exit() to sys.exit() in one of the files, looks like it's not compatible with recent Python versions out of the box. Converted into system.d daemon, now working 24/7.
