WTF is wrong with people, can’t they just fucking mind their own business, look elsewhere for a 30 second scene in an Hollywood movie. Everything available on the IFE is fair game.

Yup, and actual Friday will be Monday for me :(

When you work shifts (7/7 24h) weekends are whenever you are off duty and Friday can be on Tuesday.

So yeah, it is Friday somewhere for someone.

I think the prices are more or less the same today.

But we don’t go to Starbucks or fast food often, the coffee culture is the same as France and Italy so not Starbucks. And fast food is often the hangover food so not something you do every week.

Since Covid and inflation worldwide, some prices are actually cheaper in Switzerland. With a Swiss income it is a very perfect country to live in (not with a basic low 4000 chf/month tho, at least not in cities)

From the git above, it downloads an official MS iso and debloat it to create a lighter one. It’s the same as installing a normal iso and then removing stuff like one note etc, except that those are not installed by default so no need to remove them.

Specialized software from laptop brands (asus or whatever) are useless shits. You only need the drivers and an OS.

You can install Tiny11 as your base Windows OS https://github.com/ntdevlabs/tiny11builder then use a debloat like the ones linked in this thread or this one https://winutil.christitus.com/

I made that on my gaming PC (I use tons of non Linux compatible stuff for flight simming) and zero problems. It’s even riced to not look like Windows DE and act like i3wm.

We (French speaking peoples) have several instances, the one I’m writing from is probably the most active on lemmy, the others are on piefed.

I’d say if you see a lot of them it’s probably because of your language settings or because of those German instance settings.

I had to block several of their communities as I don’t have German selected in my languages but they still show on all (and in German, not English posts hosted on a German instance), so they were just badly setup. Maybe it changed tho, I haven’t updated my blacklist in a while.

MacGyver.

Yeah yeah, that one episode with the fire ants (S01E05) and the other one with the fast aging scientist (S03E11) gave me nightmares as a kid.

I should try to watch them today just to see how cool was the young O’Neill with two L.

Tipiak is a kinda slang way of saying pirate. It comes from an old tv ad from a food company named Tipiak. 3 old grandma screamed “pirate !” after discovering that the food tastes the same as their own secret family recipe (supposedly). It became sort of a meme and is used to say pirate. As the French language is not difficult enough for our English neighbours, we started to conjugate the word: Ce soir je vais tipiaker ce film (tonight I’m going to pirate (download) that film).

The same word is used in the answer from @[email protected] with even a new variant: Tipiakeries (pirate thingy)

The two main French torrents tracker (private tracker) are:

• https://www.yggtorrent.org/ (domain tld change regularly)
• https://la-cale.space/ (recently created after bad decision by ygg, and growing)

In French it’s like in Italian, ‘j’ai quatorze ans’ (I have 14 years).

Sometimes people are saying their next age, ’ je vais sur mes quinze ans’ (I am going to my 15 years).

Officially it is Meta. Facebook is owned by Meta but the Quest headset is not a Facebook product. I get it, it’s easier to say Facebook for everything owned by Zuk, like saying Google for Youtube instead of Alphabet.

But it is not precise nor true and plenty of comments here are saying “just leave Facebook” while OP did not post about Facebook nor having a social media account there.

And TBH, I think all VR headset are kinda ugly, it’s either big rectangle brick on your head or big round brick on your head.

Also the piefed main dev is nice normal human being with humanist views of the world. He has a rational discourse toolkit box with links about how to handle extremism, disinformation and stuff like that.

Piefed would be much better aligned with your views.

Because it is not a post about Facebook but about the VR Headset Quest 2 and/or 3.

Sadly, the Meta Quest is kind of the best deal in the PC VR world.

What do you mean?

To me the problem would be modifying the lifetime pass or simply removing it (for new customers) in favor of a fucking subscription only.

I have chosen the easy way and went from too many every day to no alcohol at all. It’s been around a year now and I am going to double that number.

Kudos to you, setting limits feels way harder than getting to zero as, to me, zero means not thinking about it at all.

If you managed to keep those rules for 3 years that’s a good job, it needs a lot of will to not use any downside of life to break the rule.

Everything is baguette, join us.

Root beer also turned out to be a disappointment.

First time I went to the US at around 16 I found a vending machine with Root Beer. I thought that I found a way to rig the system and buy beer at 16 (like we do in Europe).

Well nope, root beer is not beer…

Boar and chicken like in Astérix. The way they can easily eat a chicken wing that have only a big bone in the middle always made me jealous.

As much as I want, we divorced.
