Advocating to commit a crime probably is a violation of dutch law. Jury nullification does not exist. Edit: no expert, but the other jurisdictions linked to this instance probably similar.

I read your post with some interest, and was going to respond with a European view on free speech. Until I got to your last line, ‘you Europeans are clueless’. No point arguing with you then. Take your freedoms to another instance and enjoy the echo chamber.
Ffs - why can’t we have a functional industry regulator that sees things like this coming and does something about it.
When they run out of more strategic targets.
Because mastodon is the Linux of social media. One day it will be ready for the average user…
Define ‘hold a charge well’. There is a lot of conflicting information about NiMH v Li-ion regarding self discharge rates and not much in the way of hard facts. Probably depends a lot on brand/construction of the cell. But even a good one will be (almost) flat if not charged for a few years, and possibly dead (as in cannot be charged anymore). Single use lithium cells last longer (10 years or more) but are expensive and not rechargeable.
Is ‘could’ the new spelling of ‘will’?
Mastodon needs a lot of work before it becomes a mainstream option. They missed a big opportunity when twitter became toxic, and now they can’t compete against bluesky. Hope i’m wrong but i think they are doomed.
That’s a new record, I am blocking an 11 minute old account.
Perhaps some percussive maintenance will fix his issues.
Not just open source. It needs to have a sustainable community of developers. I’m not interested in a project that dies when the one maintainer has other priorities (been there with another lemmy app) Open source just means anyone can fork it and carry on, but if nobody does, it still dies.
As stated in my reply, I am not a legal expert, and certainly not familiar with the concept of jury nullification. But in the civil law system used in the Netherlands, what is and is not a crime, along with sentencing guidelines, is codified in written law. Case law or jury opinions are not part of the system. Saying person x should be shot, no jury would convict you is not ok. The first half of the sentence constitutes an offence, the second half is meaningless under Dutch law. Advocating for changes to the law or sentencing rules is generally ok, but saying ‘it should be legal to shoot people like x ‘ may still get you into trouble - that is one for the lawyers.
