Gentleman vs Gentleperson
Seems like a legit substitution to me
I like using “gentle people”.
Would the gentle person care for some more wine?
Works for all genders

Thank you, this detail had me scratching my head. D≈1.56" makes so much more sense.
Not knowing the difference between circumference and thickness? Instant turn off.

They’re definitely not gonna use 100% ethanol haha
I took it as more of a PSA
A better suggestion for Chinese is Pleco, but you have to download an app for that (if one is learning Chinese, one would already have this)
I’m keen to find something else for universal unicode character recognition, but haven’t extensively searched.
If you have any suggestions, feel free

Fortnightly is the most common in Australia, with some people paid monthly also (depends on the company).
And thankful for this. Monthly sounds terrible
Your country had better have a state owned grid, with a state run retailer, else this is still the same sort of shit, just without hidden fees.
Sincerely, an annoyed Victorian/Australian that wishes their electricity was just managed by the state.
There may be no hidden fees where I’m from, but when there’s a private company with a monopoly, what’s the difference?
Capitalism/privatisation is such a scam
:(
I feel like the original commenter didn’t really provide what I think you’re looking for.
A service that does something I think you might find useful is something like this: https://shapecatcher.com/
If you’re a learner/speaker of Chinese (or Japanese, I think? I assume they use this character also) then this character is very basic so quickly comes to mind (大 dà: “big”).
MisterFrog@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Administrative court: Cookie banner must contain "Reject all" buttonEnglish1·29 days agoI think you’re missing my point. Megacorps taking advantage of browser features should be outlawed, and cookie banners to opt-out of tracking cookies are a weird waste of time.
What that means for small hobbyist projects requiring the use of Cross-Site cookies is outside the scope of my opinion. I have no idea about how such things could be feasibly policed, just that I’m not convinced they couldn’t ever be.
But if I’m deciding between the collective wellbeing of everyone’s privacy and a small hobbyist project needing to add an opt in? I’m picking the opt in, which I mean, obviously, if the person wants to use your features, an extra click isn’t too much to ask
MisterFrog@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Administrative court: Cookie banner must contain "Reject all" buttonEnglish3·29 days agoI don’t see why you’d need to throw out that baby with this bathwater.
My point is the same as yours. You ought not need to “reject” cookies for the purposes of tracking you for marketing, or other defined illegitimate purposes. It should just be illegal by default.
And if you want to opt in for some specific feature, as you suggest, you could (as long as you still legislate you can’t bundle more tracking along with it).
Things should just do what is says on the tin.
In my opinion.
MisterFrog@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Administrative court: Cookie banner must contain "Reject all" buttonEnglish9·29 days agoThey cant maintain the costs of research & debelopment nor the hosting. So they have to paywall their site or close the doors
The irony of posting this comment on Lemmy, which runs based on donations. It isn’t paywalled, and doesn’t require data mining to operate. As well as Wikipedia which is completely free, and wildly successful. Which again doesn’t need to violate your privacy to continue existing.
Not to mention, not every website is making money off selling your data, and are instead selling goods or services. Which can continue to operate and make money just fine.
The fact you think the economy would collapse because data miners would lose their jobs, is showing your bias.
Nek minnit you’ll be telling me we ought not stop fighting needless wars whenever the US beckons us, because of all the poor weapons contractors losing work (massive hyperbole, but you get my point).
People working in data mining have heaps of transferrable skills, they would be totally fine.
The internet existed before enshitification, and it certainly could afterwards.
Would you have to pay a little more to access certain things? Sure. But I find the argument that the internet would cease to function very unconvincing.

Oh no
Also, idk if i want the alternative of cookie tracking to be used as much as cookie tracking. Scary stuff
Here’s an idea, you outlaw that also
We have been in the wild west of the internet the last 20 years or so, and you wonder when we’re finally going to actively police it
MisterFrog@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Administrative court: Cookie banner must contain "Reject all" buttonEnglish151·29 days agoYou wonder, why do they not just make it illegal to use cookies at all (other than for legitimate purposes like loggin in).
Who actually wants to accept?
Everytime there’s piss on the seat or the floor I just think: who the fuck are these people and do they do this in their own house?
Like, go use the urinal, why you gotta ruin the seat?
And if it’s an accident, at least wipe up after yourself!
