It seems so much more civilized when you arrive in America from Europe, and bottle caps just come right off. That regulation was a big mistake. It's as if the bureaucrats were seeking out something with a high ratio of annoyance to impact.

Only kidding. Obviously, the people mentioned in the above tweets aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them.
In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls’ single-sex spaces, the nonsense made of crime data if violent and sexual assaults committed by men are recorded as female crimes, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, the injustice of women’s jobs, honours and opportunities being taken by trans-identified men, and the reality and immutability of biological sex.
For several years now, Scottish women have been pressured by their government and members of the police force to deny the evidence of their eyes and ears, repudiate biological facts and embrace a neo-religious concept of gender that is unprovable and untestable. The re-definition of 'woman' to include every man who declares himself one has already had serious consequences for women's and girls’ rights and safety in Scotland, with the strongest impact felt, as ever, by the most vulnerable, including female prisoners and rape survivors.
It is impossible to accurately describe or tackle the reality of violence and sexual violence committed against women and girls, or address the current assault on women’s and girls’ rights, unless we are allowed to call a man a man. Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal.
I'm currently out of the country, but if what I've written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.

Scotland's Hate Crime Act comes into effect today. Women gain no additional protections, of course, but well-known trans activist Beth Douglas, darling of prominent Scottish politicians, falls within a protected category. Phew! 1/11
@mobilevikingsBE Je vous l’envoie avec plaisir en privé, mais comment faire puisque vous ne semblez pas accepter les messages privés? Vous avez peut être une adresse mail pour le support, sur laquelle on puisse poursuivre la conversation?
@mobilevikingsBE pourrais-je savoir ou en est ma demande de transfert d'internet à domicile chez vous depuis proximus via easy switch ? Ca semble bloqué chez vous, par contre Proximus me demande de leur renvoyer mon modem. Ca ne sent pas très bon. Merci d'avance.
Proximus m'apprend que c'est résilié de leur côté. Donc je me retrouve sans internet. Merci le professionalisme (non) des équipes. Je viens donc d'annuler le transfert chez @mobilevikingsBE et demain je reprend un abo chez Proximus, en espérant qu'ils puisse réactiver vite...
@itsPaulAi Thanks Paul. However, first time that the Opera browser built-in VPN seems not to be able to fool meta. It gives me a "not available in your location" error, even though with the VPN I am supposed to be in the US. Any workaround that you are aware of ?
L'innovation européenne est enchaînée par la bureaucratie. Voici des règles d'IA 'historiques' qui pourraient juste historiquement freiner notre progrès.

Un exemple de la détestable habitude de chatGPT a brandir sa "content policy" pour un oui ou pour un non. Je lui demande de me faire un résumé d'un article de wikipedia qui a été labellisé "bon article":
