I don’t quite understand. Could you elaborate? What would you suggest instead?

I just realized that probably the entire MIT Open Courseware Content is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. Doesn’t that mean that one could then reupload a lot of content to some peertube instance and thus publish a lot of excellent content there? (Provided one complies with the Non-Commercial, Attribution and Share …

@blitztoasklemmy•Fellow vegans of Lemmy, what are your favorite non-dairy milks?

vegetarian here - my favorite vegan milk is a mix of almond and oat milk. It is less sweet than pure oatmilk and has almond flavour

From what I could gather on this movement, the article is an accurate summary and an interesting discussion. Let me know if you see a better community for this…

Amazing article. I really liked the part about programs being transmitted by a DJ over radio

The application of identifying ‘criminals’ however that is defined based on Photo ID is troubling. Also I don’t see what this has to do with ‘understanding human emotions’.

I’m getting a ‘Failed to load “unity-gtk-module”’ message among other things… I’m a bit too lazy to file a bug report atm since I have never even used foliate yet. I’ll try to install it on Manjaro

How can this be so expensive? Is this only the cost for renting one or several servers?

I agree. The new rent control law is pretty cool and I hope it prevails against the court cases that are currently fought by greedy home owners. However, I feel the issue of homelessness is only tackled implicitly by this. It is never treated like the scandal that it really is… There was a ‘homelessness census’ at the beginning of the year and around 2000 homeless people were counted in one night, 800 of which were apparently sleeping on the street: https://www.berlin.de/nacht-der-solidaritaet/ergebnisse/ This is far too many but at the same time during the lockdown they could be easily housed in empty hotels I imagine.

I’m not sure what you are referring to. (1) I think in Germany the state can expropriate legal persons in general provided the state compensates the owners. This is not specific to Berlin (2) There is a large social movement, especially in Berlin, for expropriating big real estate corporations like ‘Deutsche Wohnen’ but this is not law yet. (3) The Berlin City Government has passed a law for stopping rent hikes (‘Mietpreisbremse’, literal translation: rent brake) which freezes rents in its first stage (now) and also makes certain over average rents illegal in a second stage (planned in six months or so). I wrote this from memory - so I might be wrong in some details. Let me know if you want me to back up some point with links :)

Homelessness in Germany - especially in Berlin it’s a huge issue
