There's UFoI, but to my understanding that's only helpful in cases of litigations related to federation.

I'd like to point out that in !techtakes@awful.systems they have a rule saying:

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

which they use to wolfpack onto anyone who even remotely questions their tribal consensus, even if that person is coming from sharing a post that is well aligned with them.

Lemmy is wild indeed.

I hope one day the Lemmy developers arrive at the idea that a person could be a community, somewhat like the way Mastodon treats communities as users. It's a confusing generalisation, but it works.

Ah, I see, so you are talking about this.

Of course it is nice if things get auto-generated, but doing it yourself, both in code and documentation should never be excluded as an option.

Could you elaborate on this:

it's not really possible to document and validate that an endpoint needs to have at least one of something

In what sense it is not possible, as I can easily see it done in the code?

Cool, the screenshot reminds me of a game I played in the Apple II days. Anyone remember the name of that one? "Age of war" could be pretty close, but I can't find anything about it online.

What is with the strange choice for the color scale?

Well, he doesn't push around Turkey anymore... So, it's historic evidence, not legends.

So far they don't, so "would" is not enough.

 

Hopefully this is just the start of a new way to handling these situations. A number of other NATO countries in the area from Finland to Bulgaria could do the same.

 

This policy is shared by other EU countries like Romania and Bulgaria. With it they effectively refuse to support Ukrainian air defence, which is under extreme pressure.

Remember that Turkey struck down a Russian jet that flew in from Syria? This is what it takes.

I do believe there are smarter ways to break a leg

 

MediaZona reported about 2 weeks ago that a huge trial into fake wounds going on. It's hard to know whether it is the wounds or the trial that is fake. In any case at its centre are some of Russia's "elite" forces, also known from Bucha. Also, despite military men always being at the bottom of the political ladder in Russia, this trial is quite devastating for the army morale.

Something many other countries in the region should also do.

In addition to their political aspirations, the suspects recruited supporters through online platforms, publishing videos aimed at both national and international audiences. The group's efforts were not limited to online propaganda, as they took steps to negotiate Romania's exit from NATO and discussed their plans with foreign political and military representatives.

The authorities conducted searches at eight locations in Bucharest and several counties, seizing important evidence. Four of the accused are set to face preventive detention, while the other two will remain under house arrest. These arrests come just after Romania expelled the Russian Federation's military attaché and his deputy, accusing them of engaging in activities contrary to the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. It is unclear whether these expulsions are connected to the arrests.

 

At a moment when Hungary is isolated due to it blocking of all support for Ukraine, Macedonia sends a very clear message by seeking support from them exactly.

 

In the last three months, the pace of the Russian army's offensive in Ukraine has been falling. In February 2025, the Russian army managed to occupy 192 square kilometres of Ukrainian territory. This is 4 times less than in the peak period in autumn 2024.

The OSINT project DeepState, which monitors the situation on the front line, has drawn attention to the occupiers' loss of momentum.

According to OSINTers, the current pace of the Russian army has already equalled that of July 2024. At the same time, the Russians are taking very heavy casualties as they try to advance.

 

The shooting occurred Tuesday afternoon in Thessaloniki, when two Turkish nationals were in a car near the city’s intercity bus terminal. Police said another vehicle blocked their path, and an assailant inside opened fire. The driver was wounded and hospitalized, while the passenger was fatally shot.

 

If your area is not contaminated, I guess it's worth a shout.

 

...and it looks awful

 

Costs were steep. As the country’s debt load soared past 90% of its GDP in the wake of the pandemic, Montenegro announced in 2021 that it was unable to pay Chinese loans and was facing bankruptcy. European and American banks stepped in, bringing the country's debt ratio down to 60% of GDP.

 

The only candidate to lead the SDSM party in North Macedonia that party members can vote for on March 16 will be the current party leader, Venko Filipce, the SDSM reported to the internal election commission on Friday. According to media reports, no other party member will contest Filipce's leadership.

Filipce would begin a full term as chair of the party, which ended up as opposition after an electoral defeat in May 2024. The next major elections in North Macedonia will be held in the fall of 2025.

 

On February 20, the platform plans to organize a "Five Minutes of Warning" event in front of the Croatian National Bank (HNB) in Zagreb. The event aims to give citizens an opportunity to express their concerns about the increasing prices in various services and to protest the economic situation that has led to these changes.
