I'm looking for a tool to generate a simple personal website (like an online business card) to self host. Preferably a static site generator.

I'm now using Hugo, but it does too much for me and changes too often. (I can't update my current page, because the template is no longer arond)

Discover EU petitions (www.europarl.europa.eu)

Here is the link to submitted and published EU petitions and how to find them. I find it interesting that the submitted petitions are processed directly by the European Parliament's Committee on Petitions.

The following link takes you to the search mask, which I filled in as follows in the thread title link:

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/petitions/en/home => Start search

  • Year: 2024, 2025
  • Topic: none selected
  • Status: Open to supporters
  • Country: All EU member states, European Union

Of course, you can enter whatever you want in the search box. (Multiple selections possible) I don't quite understand why you would submit/search for an EU petition that only affects a single country. That is actually the responsibility of the country, not the EU. Perhaps someone has an example where an EU petition for a single country makes sense.

The ambassadors did not provide firm figures on the long-debated eligibility criteria, which will instead be set during the negotiations. Currently, third-country suppliers – including those from the UK and Canada – cannot supply more than 35% of the total value of any weapons contract financed through SAFE loans.

SAFE currently only allows European firms, along with Ukrainian and Norwegian ones – whose countries were granted access without negotiations with the Commission – to produce at least 65% of the value of defence products purchased through the programme.

This limit could be removed if the supplier’s home country signs both a Security and Defence Partnership and a separate eligibility agreement with Brussels, and contributes financially to the programme.

The EU is moving to exclude Meta, Apple, Google and Amazon from a new system for sharing financial data that is designed to enable development of digital finance products for consumers.

Such a decision would hand a significant boost to banks in their efforts to fight off a competitive threat from Big Tech groups, which they fear will use their data to disintermediate them from their customers while extracting much of the value of knowing people’s spending and saving behaviour.

After more than two years, negotiations on the Financial Data Access (Fida) regulation are entering the final stages in coming weeks, with Big Tech groups facing almost certain defeat, according to diplomats.

The European Union unveiled its “New Strategic EU-India Agenda” this week, setting out a range of areas for closer bilateral cooperation. The document hails India as the “world’s largest democracy” and a “like-minded and trusted partner,” but deliberately overlooks India’s deepening human rights crisis.

Strengthening EU-India trade, economic, and political ties has long been among EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s top priorities. In pursuit of that goal, she has imposed EU silence over India’s authoritarian drift – of which those providing EU services are well aware.

Violence and discrimination against religious minorities, often fueled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, have been normalized. Human Rights Watch has documented unlawful expulsions and illegal demolitions of private property on religious grounds, assaults, arbitrary arrests, the use of counterterrorism and other laws and measures against civil society and diaspora critics, threats to critical media, and abusive internet shutdowns to curb criticism and protests. Indian human rights defenders, independent journalists, and civil society activists face a climate of fear and intimidation. And India’s national human rights commission faces a likely international downgrade.

It's a fact that the rectum can absorb some amount of nutrients.

So, a person should probably be able to live for quite some time while only absorbing nutrients via enema, right?

Can it be done?
