Hello I'm kinda new to Mastodon. Is this normal for the main website? I kept getting the 503 error and now the website doesn't even load.

I recently watched Mental Outlaw’s video about the EU’s upcoming digital ID system. Apparently, the app checks whether you’re using a Google-certified Android device. Doesn’t this basically mean that modified Android devices will become useless? I can imagine that all verification will be done with EU Digital ID app in the future. What's the solution?

New rule: Mandatory camera on the driver

Mandatory camera and emergency brake – there will be requirements in all new cars from July 7 this year.

Traffic should be safer, but there is a concern about what data is being collected, and to whom.

"This is untested, if you look at the longer term," said DN's motor journalist Jonas Fröberg.

More beeping and mandatory camera in the car becomes reality when life is to be saved.

From 7 July, all newly registered cars in the EU must have more advanced safety systems. It is part of a larger EU initiative where it wants to prevent 25 000 deaths and 140 000 injured until 2038, via the advanced safety systems of cars.

This is of great importance. We are behind in the zero vision we have in Sweden,” says DN’s motor journalist Jonas Fröberg in SVT’s Morgonstudion.

Cameras and emergency brake

Among the changes, there should be a camera or sensor in the car, which senses the driver's gaze. If the driver looks away, the car should warn about this and tell his eyes on the road.

In addition, the automatic emergency brakes of cars will be better at detecting pedestrians and cyclists.

“I can’t believe you’re driving outside a school, a football and a little girl are coming – then the car stops with this new system.

For two years, the requirement has been on all newly registered car models, but now the systems must be in each individual newly manufactured car. This mainly affects smaller, “simpler” cars, which did not have these systems before.

Concerns about surveillance

One concern that often arises when more cameras and surveillance data become part of our everyday lives, is who gets hold of the data.

Jonas Fröberg mentions how we in Sweden have GDPR that will protect us. But, for example, China that produces many cars and is a dictatorship, can still access the data.

However, the advantages are considering the disadvantages at the moment, says Jonas Fröberg.

“Those injured in traffic are mainly pedestrians and cyclists. This is gonna be all about it.

Two major changes

The rules are part of the EU General Safety Regulation (GSR2)

1. Partly that the car's automatic emergency brake should be able to detect pedestrians and cyclists.

2. On the one hand, all new cars must have so-called advanced distraction warning, ADDW. It is a system that monitors the driver's attention to the carriageway, often with a camera facing the driver.

Hello. I love the achievement pop up on steam and would love to replicate it for my pirated games. I recently found out that achievement watcher is deprecated and apparently there is no version for linux :(

Hello. So I've had this issue for quite a while. It seems to be somewhat random but most FitGirl repacks gets stuck early in the installation. I've tried changing to different Wine version, changing the windows version on Wine and also trying out Proton for a while, but nothing seems to fix this issue. I've had more success with DODI repacks but they don't have all the games I want to play. Is there a solution to this issue?

Games I've tried that work: Snooker 19

Games I've tried that doesn't work: Ready or Not, Forza Horizon 6 & Pure Pool Pro
