Are there any well regarded brands in the EU that sell high quality short?

Love my Dickies shorts because Iโ€™ve found them to be well made and long lasting but am considering options if I can find equivalent products.

So the idea is a mix of user submitted playlists, informational segments and a few ads from hand-picked EU based companies that deserve more attention anyway. The ads can in turn fund music licensing fees.

For the info segments it could be anything really like current events, mildly interesting facts, fun novelties and so on as long as it is relevant to the European audience. People could either record their own voice or hand in text that is then recorded by other volunteers. Someone would have to curate all of this of course and I'm thinking maybe that part can be handled sort of like moderating a Lemmy community. As in enforcing a set of rules without intervening too much.

Would you be interested in this? Or would you even like to participate? I'd have to ask for help with the technical side of things anyway. But I'm convinced this could be a fun project and provide a nice alternative to paid audio streaming so I'm willing to put in some effort.

Opinion | Microsoft, tactically admitting it has failed at talking all the Windows 10 PC users into moving to Windows 11 after all, is โ€“ sort of, kind of โ€“ extending Windows 10 support for another year.

For most users, that means they'll need to subscribe to Microsoft 365. This, in turn, means their data and meta-information will be kept in a US-based datacenter. That isn't sitting so well with many European Union (EU) organizations and companies. It doesn't sit that well with me or a lot of other people either.

We need to stop the destruction of games such as what happened to The Crew!

The numbers are moving fast! Make those MPs debate it in parliament!
