Στις 9/5/21 9:33 π.μ., ο/η tito via Dng έγραψε: Hi to all, today while reading online my selection of international newspapers on the german www. faz.net I've found this little article which made my antennas vibrate, link is: https://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/reform-der-produkthaftung-verbraucher-sollen-vor-schaeden-durch-softwarefehler-geschuetzt-werden-17330921.html text in german is: Kunden sollen nach dem Willen der Verbraucherschutzministerkonferenz (VSMK) künftig besser vor Schäden durch Softwarefehler geschützt werden. Der Bund solle entsprechende Maßnahmen prüfen, sagte Schleswig-Holsteins Verbraucherschutzminister Claus Christian Claussen (CDU) nach dem Ende der Konferenz am Freitag. Zudem solle das Produkthaftungsrecht künftig auch digitale Schäden umfassen, darunter auch Datenverluste. Das Produkthaftungsgesetz basiere auf einer EU-Richtlinie von 1985 und sei angesichts des technischen Fortschritts nicht mehr zeitgemäß, so Claussen weiter - besonders mit Blick auf die wachsende Bedeutung von Software im Vergleich zu Hardware. Clausen sagte: „Wir wollen, dass ein verbraucherfreundliches, digitales Produkthaftungsrecht eingeführt wird.“ Das müsse vom Bund auf den Weg gebracht werden. Er sei zuversichtlich, dass die Verbraucherschutzminister-Konferenz den Bund bittet, entsprechende Vorschläge zu machen. Auch die Überwachung des Lebensmittelhandels muss nach Claussens Überzeugung an die aktuellen Entwicklungen angepasst werden. Lebensmittel würden zunehmen über das Internet bestellt und nach Hause geliefert. „Die klassischen Überwachungsmethoden greifen da natürlich nicht durch.“ Auch hier solle die Bundesregierung tätig werden und Rechtsgrundlagen schaffen. Rudimental google translation is: According to the wishes of the Conference of Consumer Protection Ministers (VSMK), customers should be better protected from damage caused by software errors in the future. The federal government should examine appropriate measures, said Schleswig-Holstein's consumer protection minister Claus Christian Claussen (CDU) after the end of the conference on Friday. In addition, product liability law should also include digital damage in the future, including data loss. According to Claussen, the product liability law is based on an EU directive from 1985 and is no longer up-to-date in view of technical progress - especially with a view to the growing importance of software compared to hardware. Clausen said: "We want consumer-friendly, digital product liability law to be introduced." That must be initiated by the federal government. He is confident that the consumer protection ministers' conference will ask the federal government to make appropriate proposals. According to Claussens, the monitoring of the food trade must also be adapted to current developments. Groceries are increasingly being ordered online and delivered to your home. “Of course, the classic monitoring methods do not work.” Here, too, the federal government should act and create a legal basis. So the first question that arises is: how could open source and free software projects ensure protection from damage up to data loss if actually even proprietary software comes with no warranty at all?

Re: [DNG] long delays in waterfox
waterfox is not in devuan repos, so it's not a devuan thing, you should ask waterfox support for help.. in anycase, i'm running latest binary from antix repo and have no such issues.. waterfox is running fine.. (ff being my premier browser) maybe you should check .xsession-errors, running waterfox from terminal, or even starting a new profile.. d. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
