The mistake many employers make is asking “Can we install this CCTV camera?” GDPR asks a different question: “Can you justify this CCTV camera?”

Compelling read - I started this while brushing my teeth, found myself at the end of the article still standing in my bathroom with the toothbrush dangling out my mouth.

Listen, why did they stop at a 1,000 ships? Let the Greeks launch their bathtubs, philosophers and all.

From Belgium's X and Instagram accounts

Surely the least possible surprising second shoe to drop about a guy with the “Are we the baddies?” Nazi symbol tattooed on him.

#chatcontrol 1.0 and 2.0 Explained: There is not one proposed “Chat Control” law — there are two, and they are moving through the EU institutions in parallel. This page untangles the two. https://fightchatcontrol.eu/chat-control-overview

New Gist: Trans rights are Data rights An unusually long Gist on the data protection implications of the UK Supreme Court's decision to define what is the meaning of the word 'woman' in a single UK Act. (Also: the CJEU, colonialism, Joyce's Ulysses and Sinn Féin) www.thegist.ie/the-gist-tra...

'The Empire is drawing borders inside our heads. Real men and women must behave in a particular way, because if either gender is not behaving in that way it becomes like the colonised- the lesser races. Most importantly, men (because they rule) must not be womanly (it undermines that rule).'

A man who publicly was doing something which, when done wrong, can cause graft-vs-host disease, an autoimmune disease which can attack, among other things, your GI tract, now has an autoimmune disease which is attacking his GI tract. What a coincidence.

Perhaps we should all do up a balance sheet and see who owes who?

erotic thriller is such a great genre concept. like youre naked but you have to save the president

I certainly think this will likely have unintended consequences for Sinn Féin.

I do not know why you would complain of black pudding (excellent, delicious) when yorkshire pudding (flabby, pointless, like a mole rat shed its skin) is right there.

A petition has been launched, stating, "We, the Irish dancing community, voice our unequivocal support for transgender dancers". Read 👉 buff.ly/rIn57fX #GCNnews

I never go to Safeway, but they were the closest place with veggie corn dogs. I was instructed to return with a festive ice cream treat and I did real good. China has truly surpassed US innovation.

the Bombadil posting will continue until morale improves

Today’s Gist, some early notions bubbling around: The 100 years Govt, whatever you do, do nothing, EU Presidency (positions vacant), Jim O’Callaghan as FG’s greatest enemy, climate something, Imperial collapse as educational failure, UK trades empty suit for vacant T-Shirt.

Sure sure, everyone can enjoy watches and some people like finding out more about bits and bobs about them. But the Scent Guys? That’s the really good perversion. Can’t read about it. Have to experience each one yourself, in person. Makes no sense. Smells are literally invisible. Amazing work

€270 million. That's the cost to the govt to extend fuel subsidies until September. It's great. I'm fine. I'm not becoming the joker.

remember that time San Diego accidentally detonated all of its hour long fireworks show in a single blast in 2012?

“My ears? No, that’s not the glasses. They always look like that.”

Remember, while some will tell you otherwise, there are more of us than there are of them. #nppasaran www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

Fair.

Simon Harris congratulating Taylor Swift on her wedding is so much more cringe than Varadkar's fan letter to Kylie because, among other things, Varadkar didn't mention his constituency in that letter.

If all you do is look at Trump and say "I could do with some of that type of publicity" without considering what others think of it, then the comparison is apt.

FF TD for Dublin North West constituency leaflet puts Jim O’Callaghan’s anti-migrant policies on his front page.

I have been circling doing something I have avoided for 33 years. I am considering learning how to drive and passing a driving test. This is mostly because electric cars look like just good fun. Problem: I did learn how to drive before and hated every second of it.

It is the second, smaller, face which speaks most truely to the use cases this is intended for.

1 Owner of a Car Company In Italy is a pretty small pool.

This has ruined the plans of up to a dozen members of the public.

Larry is very definitely on the team. It’s not his fault he hasn’t had proper training, that’s on the management. He’s just doing his best under trying circumstances and works with joy and enthusiasm. I’d have him in my team any day.

Scooters wheels are too small.

The difference between a gimmick and a policy is whether you can make the thing make sense for everyone to participate.

Catholicism is the hometown I grew up in and was thoroughly shaped by even if I can't in good conscience return to, and these are like newspaper clippings of the new mayor delivering long-overdue justice to the awful owner of the car dealership

Incredible moment where Fox News puts up a graphic with all the reasons it opposes the DSA and why people should be afraid of them

Watching this aptly-named true crime show called Unusual Suspects and it’s basically just a bunch of cases where women are murdered by someone other than their husband or boyfriend.

Interesting GDPR case about data transfers and non-EU social media companies - but for the first time, it's not a transfer to the USA that's at issue...

Micheál Martin was able to accept, on camera, that X is a site that generates CSAM, and then post images of school kids on his account the very same day. This is the kind of versatility we should all want in a leader.

A senior UK judge recently told me that the reason senior courts in this jurisdiction never look at US Supreme Court case-law is that they regard it as so politicised as to be useless as legal analysis.

The difference between a gimmick and a policy is whether you can make the thing make sense for everyone to participate.

This made me crease up when I watched this video.

If we specifically focus on Trump’s well-documented habit to not pay for the services he demands professionals provide him with- including famously his lawyers- I think that there is good grounds for the comparison.

Lisa Nandy’s the latest high-profile departure from X: should schools leave the platform too? Here’s what the attorney general told @cerysturner.bsky.social in an exclusive interview: www.tes.com/magazine/new...
