  • Pretty sure Neil Gaiman is chill offline, too.

  • Under linux EAC runs as your normal user, so it can't install system-wide malware but it can read/write your personal data. If you create a dedicated user for gaming you should be safe from this kind of stuff.

  • 5G in Paris: 380 down, 90 up. Unlimited calls, SMS and data, 10€/mo.

  • Yeah I've been wishing for something like this for a long time. Actual conversation I once had:

    "Drugs are illegal because it's bad for you! We're protecting you against your bad choices!"

    "OK then, it's illegal to go faster than 130km/h everywhere in France, why don't you protect me and others against my bad decisions and forbid selling cars that go higher than that?"

    Mumbles something about personal freedom

  • You should take a look at kotlin, pretty similar to swift and fully interoperable with java.

  • The argument is basically "they've never done anything to us, so we're good". But yeah the cheap stuff must help.

  • Yeah, as I said it's relatively easy if you're already into this kind of nerd stuff, otherwise it'd require a lot of time and effort. And I don't know of any free streaming site with french-dubbed media, which my kids require.

  • I bought a NUC and 2x4TB HDDs + USB enclosure for a total of 600€, plus an easynews sub for $3/mo. Everything works great, transcoding and all.

    I canceled prime and my 3 other streaming services, it should take less than 2 years to break even, and I've got access to a much larger catalog much sooner than if I subscribed to all streaming services available in my country.

  • Jellyfin and the *arr stack are amazing and much simpler to set-up than I anticipated (if you already know your way around self hosting, docker compose and the like).

  • My guess is he threw a tantrum and yelled at his lawyers to do something about it, and it's the best they came up with.

  • It's not about physical comfort, but the environment. I have a beefy gaming desktop but most of the time I end up playing on my SD in the living room because I associate my office with work.

  • Yeah, I don't care for her music nor her lifestyle but at least she earned her money (or the first millions anyway).

  • Yes ! It's been like 20 years since I last used KDE, but I'll install this once it's available in the arch repo, and maybe make it my daily driver if all goes well. I like GNOME but I like tweaking my DE and I'm sick of extensions breaking every other release.

  • My 5yo started asking a lot of questions about war all of a sudden. The Ukraine war had just started so I figured a bunch of kids saw it on the news with their parents. Turns out these dumb fucks were watching Squid Games with them, so they started playing out executions during recess... Between that and the little boy who was lighting girls' hair on fire because "girls should cover their head", she didn't stay too long in this school.

  • This doesn't make sense. There have been public executions and torture all over the world for centuries, and yet murder and rape were much more frequent than now.
