@sand@mindly.social Do as me: Sign up now, and then leave it! (or even: get banned, like a pro 😎)

@forteller@tutoteket.no @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu There is EU-FOSSA 2, which "aims to increase the security and integrity of critical open source software".
And some open source projects have received funding though EU's Horizon programme. However, it seems they may cut that in Horizon 2025.. If you think they shouldn't, then please consider signing this open letter: https://pad.public.cat/lettre-NCP-NGI?view

@baldur@toot.cafe I'm also slightly horrified by everyone in that picture having deformed hands 😅 And maybe also by that legless police officer in the background, floating above ground.

@mario@neko.cat Well, this may be your entry ticket to a career in HR! Go for it! 🙃

@mario@neko.cat Hahah, wow! They really managed to get everything wrong then 😅
Maybe you should use some AI to generate an equally nonsensical reply?

@mario@neko.cat I'd hope so, because nobody should have to work with Microsoft Dynamics 😥

@forteller@tutoteket.no Oh, and don't forget: People often talk about a car being an "investment" - but if so it's a really bad investment, because it drops in value over time, while if you put the money you save by not owning a car in a savings account you'll get an interest! 🥳

In our case we only need to take taxi a few times a year, and maybe rent a car for 2-3 days a year. So we save quite a lot!

@forteller@tutoteket.no We had an EV for about 2 years while living in the middle of nowhere. I no longer have to spend time on writing damage reports and getting it fixed whenever someone bump into it at a parking lot and leave without a notice - and for me that's enough of a reason not to own a car 😅

And where I live now you'd have to travel really far in order to save time by driving compared to walking, due to traffic congestion. I got that verified two days ago, when we were 3 families that traveled from a playground in the city centre to a friend's house. I walked, one friend went by car and the other friend went by electric bike. He came first, I was second, and the car came last (just a few seconds after me though).

I just made a #Xing profile: https://www.xing.com/profile/Matias_Lavik

Feel free to add me :D

I'm not a great fan of #LinkedIn, and I'd rather we could all rely on some #European alternatives, so I'd like to give Xing a try!

@forteller@tutoteket.no No, but the world is 😅 I should stop reading news, haha.

I suddenly lost my apetite for Stroopwafels 😔 🇳🇱
