Oh I knew that, I’ve seen it before getting to the age of 43 kiddo :)

I just never saw the French attitude because I was French (still is), hence the “merde”.

My name isn’t from that cartoon (Pépé le putois) but from a certain plant… I was a teenager when I choose it. Now that I’m an irresponsible adult I tell people that it’s Skunk the animal and I use cute skunks as profile pictures.

But that’s a lie, let it be our little secret 🤫

Merde…

Ah the famous lay and admire toilet.

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.

The wine seems to be a BDN Bordeaux, which I suspect is AI for BON Bordeaux (Good Bordeaux).

Next time do Better Bordeaux, I hear it’s the best.

A year ago (or 40, hard to say as time flies effin’ fast) someone made that:

Bluetooth connected mustache pacifier with choice of taste.

It is a joke, based on discussions on a French twitch stream but the website is nice with some ironic bullshit function you would find on a real e-shop today.

Oh lol he’ll get reelected then (I don’t know the guy at all, just a few jokes about him I’ve seen on Lemmy)

I know that, but some might pressure you to work the night shift “or…”

People living around bars also want to be able to sleep sometimes.

Closed bar also means less drunk people in the streets. In my city you cannot buy alcohol “to go” in shops after 9pm and bars close at 2.

After that if you want to continue partying you go to night clubs.

Anyway, a wise drunk dude once said “nothing good happens after 2”, and from experience he was right.

The same reason half of Europe has closed shops on Sunday, worker protection.

You need strong laws to not have businesses abusing and pressuring peoples to work the shity 14h shift till morning for earning a peanut.

And workers protection law + North America are not often put in the same sentence.

Also it’s generally not worth it business wise. Paying salaries and more from 2 to 4 (or 6am or whatever) to sell two beers means losing money. You might have a few festive nights here and there, but most of the weeks/months you’ll have an empty bar so even the owners are not pushing for it.

Yes it can. If you create a bootable usb with Rufus you can even create the local account before launching the install.

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)

I work in ATC and we have several desks with around 12 to 18 screens. Not in that layout tho, but on a much larger banana form.

They are used at different support positions so not ATC radars. Mostly for monitoring but also used with keyboard and mouse.

The applications goes from technical surveillance of ops systems, to flow capacity (airspace capacity), meteo broadcast for all airports (ATIS) or ground-ground telecommunications of aeronautical data.

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.

The fediverse community is !tipiak@anarchist.nexus

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 @obercail@jlai.lu 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).

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.
