Let’s follow your suggestion, I updated the posts

Bonus post,

Scene from a horror movie : A young blonde girl look at herself in the mirror, her reflection through the cracked mirror, shows a monstrous and creepy old witch with occult tattoos, wearing the same clothe and having the same posture, the whole scene occurs in a wooden house, giving it a fantastic ambiance

Every decade had it’s pile of shit, and for the moment, the 2020’s have been a walk in the Park compared to 2010’s.

Sure covid was a wild-ride, where we had to mostly stay at home when no valid reason to go-out, and when out the city was quiet. and then proceeding to normal life with some accommodation is weird,

Remember the 2010’s with the long-tail of the 2008 economic crisis, the terrorist attacks (and all the security measure impact on day to day life), The start of the Ukraine war, The Syrian civil-war, the politicians not listening to kids protesting climate change, the Brexit, and tons of other crazy problems ?

What’s the most common lie westerners believe about North Korea?

Are you allowed to read Marx, Proudhon and other communist philosophers?

How privileged are you to have access to the Internet and do an AMA?

What do you think of that North Korean girl doing videos on YouTube? (Not sure how she is called, just saw a documentary about her)

French has the bépo layout which applies the Dvorak methodology to French

I would like to see more rpg discussion, I like that the [email protected] doesn’t end-up an D&D community like in the alien website, but I would love to see more than one discussion thread per week.

Atheism isn’t a religion, so there isn’t “must read books” nor mandatory workshops. Do what you please.

Interesting,

I know that in the french alps we can reach the mountain police through VHF if needed, and that during heli-rescue they give a call on the free-flight frequency to let paraglider know that they are coming. but I am pretty sure that they have their own network too, and that VHF is a way to call them when you have no mobile phone coverage

Is there place were law enforcement still use regular radio ?

Nowadays, it’s a protocol similar as mobile phone with digital data transmission and encryption rather than good old analog radio.

And it’s typically a case were encryption is important, even for the privacy of the involved persons

Unpopular opinion but Don’t panic.

It’s been decade that economy has been shit for real people with crisis starting before the previous one finished, high unemployment, stagnating wages, expensive real estate and more

If you’re rich enough to be impacted by stock market collapsing you’re already way above average.

Sure it’s not making things better, and not the moment to change job, but it’s been shit for a while and will stay shitty. The era when boomer could find a job without any degree, get a living wage with yearly raise and promotions is over.

True goal: start making butter that’s as good as Kerrygold.

This says a lot about the state of US dairy industry if you consider kerrygold as the “gold standard for butter”

for things that will most likely happen.

When I took the First-aid/CPR course, the red cross trainer spent like 30 minutes doing a list of what can realistically happen where we are. An interesting exercise.

Full blown apocalypse is unlikely, but doing stuff like checking the flood-risk map before renting/buying a home (Especially ground floor apartment and single-floor house) does wonder at not having to evacuate. Knowing the kind of dangerous factory/goods in your area also helps a lot planning for the right thing.
