" On est toujours le con de quelqu'un, et tant pis pour lui". -> "We are always someone's jerk, and so much the worse for him". Agree with the article, I just wished it wasn't conflating "bullshit

Mostly agree, though one thing I strongly disagree with (especially for books :)). Paying 1$ at a yard sale for Moby Dick would be it for me. No need to read, I will simply enjoy having the book around me, just like having a new friend at h

Well, the only thing is that brown and a bit crispy onions and not caramelized onions, that's it. The author is mostly complaining that the caramelized onions mentioned in the recipes simply aren't that. Brown and a bit crispy on

I understand and appreciate that you want the terms used to be correct. I feel that the tone you used probably rubbed people the wrong way. Had you for example corrected me and given me the correct terms and definitions, I'm quite sure

Hey, incidentally that very chemical is a major part of the recipe! My bad, English isn't my native language. I guess I meant additives?

Trying to be positive in an ocean of poo, making your own tortillas is cheap, fast, kinda fun to do with kids and you can augment them for extra flavour. You can even batch prepare them in advance as long as they're not in contact with

1.7% globally sounds pretty insane to me, honestly. In combination with many other similar numbers.

Tangential but related. I am a long time Spotify user, French guy living in the Netherlands. I always kept a French credit card for the sole purpose of having access to the French music catalogue, and not the Dutch one (yeah, I learnt that

Even public servers, where you log in because of the vibe /community and know who you're gonna find there. Still getting those vibes with some games like Hell Let Loose but it's a dying breed!

I absolutely love Kotlin (and I do like the folks behind Jetbrains), so I'm kinda de facto locked onto IntelliJ but damn that post is right in the feels. Yesterday, I had to let go of my 4K screen and go back to working on the laptop s
