Synapse

I have some problem with this proposal:

1. These drugs are around also, you know, for sick people who need them. It is the case of my mom who has multi sclerosis and the only pain killer effective on her is known as a rape drug.
2. Chemical submission can be achieved with a wide range of things, most commonly use it probably alcohol, regular drinks such as wine and beer. Attempting chemical submission with those shouldn’t fly under the radar of justice!
3. I think it would be much more effective to amend the law in order for all cases of chemicals submission (with or without rape) and rapes to be brought to justice
4. A big issue that is ignored with this proposal is, victims often don’t report the aggression or don’t complete the full procedure. Police and Justice system personnel must be better trained about these cases of rape and rape with chemical submission in order for the victims to be able to report their aggression without feeling judgement or shame through out the entire process, from the police report until the conclusion of the court.

Google maps isn’t only satellite images, it uses also a lot of photoshoot from airplanes.

I am surprised they brand themselves “Populistes” which in French language has a very negative meaning. It literally means you say whatever people want to hear to get elected without following through on your promises. At least in a sense, they are honest about it…

No, they would definitely use eSIM

Things as simple as the wiper motor in every car has some Nexperia parts under shortage. They do many types of components, transistors, diodes, that are in basic electronics. It’s not so simple to replace these parts by other manufacturers because the requirements for automotive parts are difficult to meet (normal operation between -40 and +85 °C, 15 year durability, high humidity, etc) and you must demonstrate these capability on every product to the car manufacturers before you can use a new component in the product.

This topic is keeping me working minimum 10 hours per day as of lately 🤷‍♂️

I was exited for the explorer tabs and virtual desktop, but OMG they are sooo bad ! In case of the virtual desktop, they even made it worse with Win11, now the animation is so slow and can’t be configured.nyou can have either slow ass animation or no animation at all which makes it very confusing to use.

First, BACKUP EVERYTHING.

Then, the best distro is probably going to be the same you are currently using. You will not have to deal with issues that may be specific to one distro. There is enough difference from one computer to another to cause annoying issues, even on windows.

It always makes me clench my teeth when I read things like “Bayrou is center”. Anyone who negotiates with RN or appoints B.Rotailleau to their government, is a fascist and definitely not center.

• Set a decently good password (password is required frequently on Linux, so do go overboard with a 40-random-characters-long password, you will regret it)
• don’t install programs or run scripts from shady sources, prefer to install programs from the Software store (package manager and flatpak)
• setup a backup system to regularly copy all your files to a separate storage device. This is the way to protect yourself from ransomware but also user errors! Having the possibility to format your drive, reinstall and restore backup in a 1 hour time span is going to give you the peace of mine you need for exploring and experimenting with Linux

The guitar playing with the missing fingers made me cry instantly.

It’s funny to me, maybe not to anyone else. If you would take an advice from a random internet stranger: Try to learn a bit of Mandarin, travel to China, maybe your local communist party can even support you with that. Get a some first hand experience with this country your clearly very passionate about.

Not as well supported by sources as you previous replies, such a shame. But you gave me a good laugh 🤣

Alright, you did convince me that the Chinese people report strong support to the CCP and report a strong perception of democracy. What I am still not convinced of however, is that PRC IS democratic.

In my book, for a country to be democratic it needs to have:

• Freedom of speech
• Freedom of press
• Freedom of reunion
• Freedom of protest
• Universal access to education
• Political plurality
• Universal suffrage
• Universal respect of human right

My opinion today is that, I highly doubt PRC qualifies to any of this points, but I don’t know for sure. If you convince me with credible evidence that PRC is better than, let’s say, France, Germany or Norway, on all these points, then I am ready to move to China with you next year.

Edit: I forgot a few important point on my democratic list of requirements:

• Laicity (division of state and religion and tolerance for all religions)
• Division of power (Legislative, Justice, Executive, etc, must be help by different institution regulating each other)

The data from this article is up to 2016. Things have changed quite a bit since the COVID crisis.

Better answer the survey correctly when you live in a country that has laws like “disagreeing with the government is a crime”

That’s horrible and properly terrifying. My condolences to the families of the victims. I hope the investigation leads to improving the safety of the funicular so that they can put it back in service. It’s such an important feature of the city.

Is it Signal and Threema leadership that doesn’t want to implement interoperability with WhatsApp or it’s WhatsApp preventing it? Is there any existing 3rd party app that’s compatible with WhatsApp?

I read another headline today that India is now the 1st provider of Diesel fuel to Ukraine.

Yeah, looks like they only have it for the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro. Well, I’m not gona buy a new phone for that, but it looks pretty cool.

Where did you get this keyboard case and do they make one for the Pixel 7 ?
