  • cool beans out of 5

  • originally, as a noun, "le train" comes from the latin word trahere "to pull". It's then use to describe a convoy of animals. Later its meaning evolved into the "the going motion" (of a horse, a human).

    It's currently in that sense in "arrière-train" to designate the back legs of a quadruped. "Aller de bon train" = to walk briskly, or in automotive, the "train avant" and "train arrière" are the front and rear axles.

    There are other expressions like "le train-train quotidien", meaning the daily grind.

    edit: additional information to the etymology

  • it would seem like that because the words are the same, but in the locution "en train de [verbe]", en train has the 15th century meaning of "in action", "in movement", this predates the invention of the railroad :)

  • yup you gonna end up in Guactanamo

  • 5G, also when roaming internationally. Data is not unlimited in my case because i don't subscribe to their home internet offer, but 350 GB is functionally unlimited for me, I never reach 50 GB in a month. DSL/Fiber Subscribers get unlimited data and pay only 9.99€ for mobile service.

    speedtest:

    • 5G on provider network: ⬇️ 200 MBps ⬆️ 66 MBps
    • 5G international roaming: ⬇️ 100 MBps ⬆️ 32 MBps

  • They do try, but many vigilant members of the FOSS community do their best to find out what's being done and prevent it.

    You can read this summary of the attempt to inject a malware payload into a widely used compression tool that is used when remotely accessing servers: https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/2/24119342/xz-utils-linux-backdoor-attempt

    It was a close call with potentially dramatic consequences, where a bad actor took 2 years to progressively gain reputation and rights to a key FOSS project, and one performance obsessed engineer to find out what they did and undo everything.

    The big difference between FOSS and closed source software is that FOSS gives the possibility to audit the code, whereas binary analysis / retro engineering is much harder.

  • France, 19.99€, unlimited data + calls + text, 35 GB/mo roaming in all of Europe and other countries
