It's hard to get numbers on what countries pay to Microsoft. The Dutch parliament has repeatedly asked and has not gotten numbers even though there is a whole agency since 2014 (https://www.digitaleoverheid.nl/overzicht-van-alle-onderwerp...) specifically for giving Microsoft preferential treatment in procurement.
Yes but Holland has been governed by the VVD Neoliberals for more than a decade and they have a super hard-on for everything American. I think that will probably change now.
You can use your own Woodpecker instance with Codeberg. I do this at work and privately and it works great and is much faster than the free CI that Codeberg can afford.
I'm really interested in doing this - did you follow any guides or find helpful tutorials online? At the moment I'm using Codeberg's free CICD, but it's limited and I'd rather run my own.
There is no place called 'Udem' in Germany. There is a place called Uden in the Netherlands. Close to it is the military Volkel Air Base. It has fighter jets and nuclear bombs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkel_Air_Base
> NATO was monitoring the Baltic States air space from ground radars and from a Gielenkirchen based AWACS several hundred kilometers back near the German/Polish border.
There is also no place called „Gielenkirchen“. It‘s likely a typo of „Geilenkirchen“, which indeed does have a NATO base. But it is also at the German/Dutch border, while the article places it at the German/Polish border.
I am questioning the rest of the article based on these findings. They are straight-forward to check before publishing.
> ...based AWACS several hundred kilometers back near the German/Polish border
This should also have triggered the 'fact checker alarm bells' because there are no NATO bases in the area of former East Germany to this day (honoring the agreement with the late Soviet Union to not station foreign NATO troops in former East Germany - e.g. the only "no NATO East expansion promise" that actually exists in writing) - and AFAIK apart from the Eurofighter Luftwaffengeschwader 73 in Rostock-Laage (also not exactly close to the Polish border) there is no presence of the German airforce in East Germany either.
Although tbf, the sentence could also be read as the Geilenkirchen-based AWACS plane operating several hundred kilometers back (from Estonia) near the German/Polish border - which I guess makes a lot more sense than moving Geilenkirchen several hundred kilometers to the east :)
In any case I agree that it's a poorly written article and should be classified as fiction until confirmed by more reliable sources.
Nothing greenlit in a “closed-door EU working group session” can become law. These things need to go through all phases of legislation including the approval of parliament.
So yes, if you don’t like chat control, talk to your MEPs and stop voting in populist ministers and council members/presidents.

Personally, I would only choose companies that are listed as a partner because then I can see what level of support they buy from Nextcloud.
