Not as far as I know, but the self-hosting community is generally moving over to VM runners and off the vendored solutions, any cloud provider can give you those.

Scaleway gives the most was style of services like managed kubernetes, FAAS, managed gateway etc. you pay for the convenience though.

Whilst WhatsApp is still owned by meta and I'm sure the US military would have a lot use for the metadata they collect, let's be honest, I'm sure Putin would prefer if Russians switched to a platform they can spy on themselves

From what I've heard from Americans, the standard of dress for basic tasks like going to the shop is apparently high compared to the same in America

This is why I'm migrating all the servers I own to EU data centres owned by EU companies. It's insanely hard to get enterprises off the big 3 cloud providers, but for the smaller clients I support they don't know why difference and in the long run it ends up saving then money

A shadow contract is one of few mechanisms to enter large-scale consensus (it isn't THAT large when compared to a solar or galactic scale, but large enough for planetary control, and with some clever management, can scale larger).

You don't know that, I've seen shadow contracts that apply to intergalactic scales. I would wager they can be used for interdimensional organisations

That makes no sense to me, it just reinforces the fact that the US president is essentially just an king that gets elected and has a term limit

It's absolutely wild that the US president is able to pardon convicts. Like you have a supposedly independent legislature and judiciary, and the the president can just go "nuh-uh" to anything he doesn't like

Yes it is, it's essentially giving people with children extra votes to use.

Sure, but I want mature enough at 18 either. A lot of people aren't mature enough at 40 to fully comprehend what they're voting for. We don't enfranchise people with votes based on their level of knowledge though, we do it if they're considered active members of society - and 16 year olds are considered adults in a large amount of their day-to-day life

Who do you think makes all the gifts for Santa?

This is actually an iOS issue, their permissions aren't fine-grained enough so every photo app would need access to the whole photo library. The reason people don't notice this is because Apple Photos has access by default
