They must've been playing the long game then, iMessage has been irrelevant in Europe since before this law existed. Apple truly thinks of eveything

I could see valve moving to a telemetry/user feedback based system in the future - e.g 78% of users who ran this on a steam deck played for more than x hours and didn't crash

It's a podcast called Parenting Hell

That's the thing though, I know exactly what you mean but how do you write that down in a way that ensures that it's only used in those circumstances. The only alternative I can think of is leaving it up to the judges, which would get around the issue if the definition but would probably result in public pressure to use it in circumstances where someone is convicted of a crime which causes a lot of emotional response from the general public. I'm with you in that there are definitely cases where it's a waste of time to keep them alive, but I thing the implementation is impossible.

I think the problem is defining "100% certain" in law. People are only supposed to be found guilty when it's beyond all reasonable doubt that they did it. So how do you make a distinction between that and what would warrant the death penalty?

There's no way we would ever make the leap from tory to green, labour to green is barely conceivable either. Would be nice though.

Thankfully Spotify's podcast platform still supplies RSS for most podcasts. The only exclusive podcast I listen to got so much backlash they had to make it non exclusive again

Isn't this kind of against the point of the fediverse? Or at least slapping duct tape over a flaw in the implementation?

You can listen to most podcasts through any platform you choose, I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion

I've been saying for ages that podcasts are the last mainstream bastion of what the Internet is supposed to be. Imagine if it was the same for film and tv?

Can anyone recommend any good podcast focused self hosted RSS feeds?

Any site that uses AI generated images for the thumbnail can fuck off, I'd rather see nothing
