11 days agoAwesome, thanks for sharing! Saving the link for when I’ll update the megathread I made for art communities on Lemmy (https://jlai.lu/post/11321258)
Hunches and gut feelings. Dreams in waking life.
I organize the Eurovision Song Contest, but exclusive to Lemmy, it’s called Lemmyvision !

You have a one in seven chance of seeing your health data migrate to the Microsoft cloud and fall under American law, and therefore under the good will of its president, Donald Trump, and the Doge’s boss, Elon Musk. So, happy? Yes, you may be among the 10 million French people randomly selected as part of the Darwin EU project, coordinated by the European Medicines Agency and led, in France, by the public interest group “Plateforme des données de santé,” better known as the Health Data Hub (HDH).
In a decision published on March 11, the French National Commission for Information Technology and Civil Liberties (CNIL) gave the HDH the green light to select a random sample of 10 million people representative in terms of age, sex, and department of residence from the main database of the National Health Data System, the vast majority of which is issued by the National Health Insurance Fund. The objectives are certainly laudable: to determine the prevalence and incidence of drug and vaccine use in France using a standardized methodology.
Less laudable, the host chosen to store this data is Microsoft. In 2020, as part of a summary procedure, we already warned that sensitive health data of the French population hosted by Microsoft fell under American law due to the company’s domicile in the United States. In October 2020, the Council of State recognized this risk of extraterritoriality of American law. A month later, in a letter dated November 19, 2020, the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran, urged the government to completely eliminate, within two years, the risks posed by the hosting of health data by an American operator.
Five years have passed: the technical solution is still Microsoft. The US authorities, now represented by Donald Trump, will therefore be able to issue subpoenas to Microsoft to disclose the health data of 10 million French citizens. In its opinion of March 11, 2025, the CNIL (French Data Protection Authority) warns of the risk of “disclosure to foreign powers of data stored with a host subject to non-European law” and regrets the lack of a sovereign solution.
Are the very people in government who boast of defending our country’s “sovereignty” leading us up the garden path for over five years? Hand on heart, we are told that a call for tenders is being prepared to select a European host. Words, words.
Macron is a hypocrite, all talk no action
American war propaganda poster for illustrating feminism, that’s certainly a choice

This was just waiting to happen tbh

I think the common denominator is a strong / immersive story and universe that appeals to me (big fan of sf), interesting mechanics and gameplay in a way that makes the game unique in its own way, and the artistic approach behind the game, so for each of those :
- Outer Wilds was a fantastic experience that you can only live once, the freedom of exploration is crazy, the feelings you can go through in the span of a single minute make it so memorable, I connected with this game like no other
- Death Stranding I played during one of the lockdowns, and after hiking in Iceland, it was a continuity of these two experiences that felt very personal. It was also my introduction to Kojima games. I found it to be such a premium experience and statement about video games, I loved the insanity of the plot, and once you dug deeper, you find all the artistic inspiration and process that went behind the game, it’s an insane work of interactive art
- Disco Elysium I was already fully on board just learning about the game, I sympathise with the authors, the fact that it started as an rpg campaign, with immense lore behind it, love the art style, the narration, the story and its themes, I haven’t lived in post USSR Europe but the game make me nostalgic/melancholic for a time, aesthetic, struggles I didn’t know
They’re my absolute favourite but some games come close, Inscryption, Pyre, Spiritfarer…
Any of those three
- Disco Elysium
- Death Stranding
- Outer Wilds
1·3 months agoWhile i appreciate the work put towards a healthier Lemmy experience for everyone, I’m also concerned about the consolidation efforts happening lately.
I agree with streetfestival that it comes off as pushing towards centralisation of communities within instances that are considered “acceptable” (by whom, for whom, what criteria?), which to me goes directly against the idea of federation.
!privacy@lemmy.ca is perfectly fine and was actually the community people recommended when .ml was considered not reliable anymore. Why make people move again?
The goal is to have users have a choice, not force people to use four to five “main” instances and go back to a Reddit style of ownership when it comes to communities. Until we have an option to federate and share comments between communities, I’d rather “live and let live” than force a specific usage of Lemmy upon users.
Nice!
