So in Scotland they speak Scottish-English? Irish-english in Ireland? What's your proficiency in these languages ?

I don't know about Scottish-English and Irish-English, to be honest. Would an English native understand them? Germans don't understand Swiss-German, and Swiss-Germans don't consider German as their mother tongue. Whereas the French being spoken on the French part of Switzerland is slightly different from the French from France, but people still consider that French is their mother tongue. Not sure if that answers you…

> Would an English native understand them?

Depends where in Scotland and how much they've had to drink.

On a serious note, words like ken, bairn, breekies, stramash are not that well understood by English people. But it's unlikely a Scot would use them when talking to an Englishman.

I have a set of test questions I use to gauge how badly a LLM model has been lobotomized whenever a new one is released. This post made me finally realize that google search is really going away (compromise core mission due to invalid DMCA request? really??) and that I will have to start looking for new search engines. This of course means that I need a way to gauge prospective search engines. My first attempt: - Sea…

I use a similar litmus test. I search for the website for the Proud Boys. Google doesn't just censor it. They place obviously hand-curated results critical of the movement on the first page. Bing is the same. DuckDuckGo also fails the test. Kagi and Yandex both pass this test.

Google fails almost every one of these tests.

Right, but the DMCA is an American law. It's irrelevant in France.

The only countries where American law is irrelevant are Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran. Go anywhere else, and on closer examination you'll find that American law is in fact very relevant, with local governments often bending over backwards to accommodate US legal provisions. Copyright, financial regulation, and international travel are some of the areas where this is usually apparent, but far from the only ones…

And then you get countries like France where they refuse to extradite probable child sex offenders.

everybody is a "probable child sex offender", so there is no ground to extradite.

I think he meant convicted child rapists: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Polanski_sexual_abuse_ca....

NewPipe is excellent. I was disappointed that it was not available for desktop until I discovered tartube which will download video files from almost any website easily

tartube is only available on Sourceforge. I thought that was a malware infested download site?

That hasn't been true for years.

Biggest army in the world, also the only reason most of europe has freedom today and not a german dictatorship is the US in WW2. This is something europeans forget when complaining about "outsized" US influence but then also don't invest in defense and keep being safe just by the grace of the US. This comes with a price. PS: I'm from europe

the red army didn't invade Berlin in your alternate universe? Also USA funded terrorism, mafia, in italy… not something to brag about.

How many military bases does Russia have in Germany and the rest of europe? How much control does Russia have on europe in terms of enforcing laws, extraditing citizens vs the US?

Do you really not see the difference? I don't like the fact that the US has this presence or influence in europe, but it is factual. Why you think stating a fact is braging, I'm not sure.

Russia had the same until the collapse of USSR. Which has nothing to do with who had a bigger role in fighting the nazis.

Snowden was stranded in Russia because his passport was revoked while he was headed towards South America.

He got lucky. South America isn't safe for him either. Look what happened to Assange. The Ecuadorian government changed and they kicked him out of the embassy soon after that. He wasted all those years there for nothing.

Well yeah superpowers can do whatever they want.

To be fair to the US they don't push you out of a window. You get your day in court (although it may take several decades- see Guantanamo bay).

Next step would be for the copyright-enforcement industry to sue VPN providers, claiming that they are making excessive profits by letting users sidestep the geofences, and so they must share some of the profits.

> geofences

Geofences are a great way to start copyright reform. Bobby from Zambezia downloaded your new X-heroes movie, and you're complaining about piracy losses? How can you claim losses, if you're geofencing your content and don't want Bobby's money?!
