I don't know, I'm from France like you, barely know anything about basketball (besides playing it a few times at school), yet I still know who Michael Jackson is and understood what the shot was.

I was going to write the same thing you did. I've been diagnosed with ADHD and while it is a disadvantage for certain things (I've lost quite a bit of money due to invoices not being sent on time to clients as a contractor, fines

For a while I enjoyed having an egpu which allowed me to share my amd graphic card between my laptop and my linux based desktop. Nowadays, I'm only using it for my linux based desktop and I'm thinking of getting rid of the egpu en

I disagree, with the package manager you know that it's been vetted by the distribution maintainer, they ensure that when you install something through the package manager the package comes from them and they ensure the binaries do not

Yup, it's why if I run this, it's really the last resort and I most likely will run it in an isolated container.

In the specific case of running something blind with curl| bash instead of using a package manager or using something that maintains a degree of isolation (flatpak, docker containers, ...), yes it's the fault of users. I don't cri

I've never ran curl | bash once and I use linux fairly regularly in the past 20 years. If I absolutely have to install something where the only way is to pipe a curl to bash (which is incredibly rare), I first download the script, revi

Seems that this website blocks any access from HK completely through cloudflare... Cloudflare making it easy to block entire countries, allow people to be lazy in protecting their websites and goes completely against the open web. Of course

First thing I did was search for Denthor in the comments. I'll always remember going online the first time in 1996 and stumbling on Denthor's tutorials, Fravia's site. Both of those were hugely influential for me. I never end

I hate 3D secure, it's a way for banks to move the liability and inconvenience to me, their customers. In most implementation, I need to wait for an sms, often that sms takes ages to come. Then there's a bit of a monopoly with 3d

It's been great, as a new dad with a young kid, I no longer had time to boot up my gaming pc. Now that I have a steam deck, I play a lot more games. It's also by far the game console I fight the most over with my wife. She loves p

I've tried that in the past and had a hard time doing so. I managed to get the company to sponsor projects like sidekiq because there were some benefits in doing so (even if we actually never used the enterprise benefits) but I haven&

Sidenote, I remember some people here wondering why websites don't explain why a transaction failed (wrong CVV, wrong AVS or Do not honor, etc...). This is what happens if you do give this kind of error through, don't put some for

I always wonder what happened with Ambrosia, they had a good library of games that they could update and could still sell but they just disappeared suddenly.

Can you elaborate? What exactly are the behaviors that cause them to be seen as an unwelcome influence? I'm genuinely asking because it's interesting, not to harp on you but because I'd like to know more.

This reminds me of Digg's death throes and the massive exodus to reddit. It's as if Spez wants the same to happen to reddit and for everyone to migrate to discord.

That's exactly my feeling, I have a valve index and got my parents a quest. It's still new technology, it's still clunky but it will get better and I've had really amazing moments with VR. I think the Meta beta is correc

Cloudflare's verification and blocking means that I regularly have to use a VPN to access sites because having an HK ip address is reason enough to get those verifications or be outright blocked. In the same way that Google breaks ema

In my experience with other languages (can't say for French since that's my native language), it's normal. I'd say that for someone at your level who has extensive vocabulary and good reading comprehension, just staying

I wish! In Asia, single-pane/single-glazed is pretty much the standard. Even in 3600 usd/month apartments in Hong Kong, it's very unlikely you'll see double glazing. It drives me up the wall, winters are not long and it
