💻 Coding clunky, catastrophic creations conjuring calamity onto computers.

🫣 Tragicomic timidity triggered by technology, trying to triumph from their tortuous travails.

Macron affirme désormais dans "Elle" qu'il n'y avait chez lui "aucune complaisance" vis à vis de Depardieu et qu'il n'avait "jamais défendu un agresseur face à des victimes". Un nouveau virage à 180 degrés du président, qui encensait alors un "immense acteur" qui rendait "fier la France" et dénonçait "une chasse à l'homme". Ces propos avaient fait scandale, jusque dans ses propres rangs, Valérie Hayer avait fait part de son "malaise" en tant que femme.

Michael Bay (Bad Boys 1 et 2, Transformer 1 à 6) travaille sur un nouveau film et ça promet de la finesse...

"Mélangeant des éléments de thrillers automobiles comme Mad Max : Fury Road et d’horreur démoniaque comme Evil Dead, l’histoire écrite par Malone se déroule dans l’Europe médiévale, où la seule chose qui fait obstacle à la horde de démons qui infestent le continent est un mystérieux 18 roues blindées apparemment envoyées du ciel".

So we finished watching the Fallout TV show the other day, and... well let's just say it's a stark reminder that the main plots are not the strength of the game series.

Without wanting to spoiler anything, the show follows a similar-ish thread as the main quest of Fallout 3 for one character, but adds in the perspectives of two other characters - which the games might have provided in side quests or message logs you might have found, etc.

Regarding themes, both in terms of design and...

Une collègue, très sympa par ailleurs, mais qui ne semble pas se remettre de mon véganisme, m'a expliqué ce qu'était la tolérance envers les carnistes. Il faut tolérer que les autres mangent différemment

ça m'a scotché et je n'ai même pas pu répondre

Non, on ne tolère pas que vous exploitiez, fassiez souffrir pour ensuite abattre des animaux tout en polluant. C'est juste qu'on ne peut pas vous empêcher

Okay, this is one of those questions where the answer is almost certainly "obviously no", but…

@rysiek no

But in practice you may retain (and pay for) your subscription in the country of origin and should be able to use it within the EEA at no additional cost.

Though carriers tend to frown on this, and will state that this is not fair use, I suspect that anything outside of heavy or constant usage is unlikely to make them notice (I used a UK# in France for years before I initiated the cancellation; no word from them about anything)

YMMV and this is not legal advice etc etc

I installed an Analogue Mega SG (an FPGA-based aftermarket Sega Genesis/Mega Drive) at work. Mainly to show the younger colleagues what they missed in the 90s. 😁

Now I am looking for nice games playable at lunch break. Meaning: Not to complicated, fast startup, maybe games for two.

Any suggestions?

    I'm developing a theory that Microsoft's comical inability to run a digital store or the like is actually the work of insurgents within their ranks, who know how dangerous that would be, and encourage the absolute worst executive to counter it.

    As many rightly noted we need a better word that "users" to refer to people with accounts.

    I humbly submit my proposal for your consideration: as these are people, and they have accounts, we could simply call them…

    The best chance for the people of the UK, imo, is

    1. Rejoin the EU as soon as possible
    2. Invest everything in sustainability. Every house must be insulated. All our power must be renewable (not biomass!!). Insulation, heat retention, efficient transport. Seize capital and use it to fix everything. It's literally do or die.
    geist,
    @geist@eldritch.cafe avatar

    @porsupah @celesteh IMHO do all of these things but why bother with the EU? What do you hope the EU can do (or even is willing to do) wrt the tories being terrible?
