Nice graphs, but these numbers are not reflecting the reality. As both count heat deaths differently. Europe does calculate it based on excess mortality studies and US only counts them if it is listed as contributing cause on the death certificate. With similar statistics, US numbers are several times higher. And as Europe has an older population, rates are likely higher, but the real difference is much smaller.

Same! The open source project I engage with, held the yearly conference always alternatingly in America and Europe over the past 10 years. And due to the current circumstances it was just recently decided to have next year's conference a 2nd time in a row in Europe.

So he wants to tell us to stop paying for our streaming services and games? As we can acquire them via shady sources and claim that we wanted to train an AI model, but haven't had success yet.

No this not a really good criteria. There is Linux support for a few MCUs, including a few STM32 Series. Having a MMU is a much better criteria.

They already have an STM32C0 Series at the very other end of the performance spectrum starting @0,24$ per chip.

Nextcloud Mail won't be replaced by Roundcube!

"Neither will Roundcube replace Nextcloud Mail or the other way around. ... Nextcloud Mail will evolve as it is, focused on being used naturally within Nextcloud."

In Firefox for Android 1.120 they seem to have made some improvements for the upcoming extended addon support and have added a link to find more addons via addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/android.

Let's hope lots of apps are available soon, including including Firefox Translations.

"In anticipation of opening up the Firefox for Android extension ecosystem later this year, dozens of new mobile extensions will surface during the 120 release cycle as we continue guardrail testing."
