  • In Italy, murders of women killed for misogynistic reasons will now be defined as femicide.

  • Do you have sources for that ?

    Because in not a lawyer or have any expertise in law but your comment got me curious and what I'm reading seems to contradict your statement.

    Like here :https://www.savoir-juridique.com/crime-passionnel-mythe-realite-juridique-droit-penal/

    It seems that there is very rare cases when passion was used to lower the sentencing but it's very anectoctical and the "crime passionel" is not recognized by French law

  • This hit me hard ten years ago.

    I've always been fascinated by space, as a teenager I wanted to be an astrophysicist, in my early twenties I fully believed Thant humanity was going to explore the solar system and that it would start happening in my lifetime.

    I was studying mechanical engineering and I did everything I could to work in aerospace: picked the right specialities, I got two master of mechanical engineering specialized in aerospace manufacturing (France and Czech Republic). I worked in the manufacturing of critical parts of Arian's rocket engine and designed new manufacturing technique for future aircraft engine parts.

    I was working towards one goal: being part of the people who will build the spacecraft that will explore the solar system, maybe even be in one.

    Then in 2015 after few years working this hit me, I realized all that was never going to happen. Instead of witnessing the exploration of the solar system I am going witness the collapse of it thermo-industrial civilization.

    We are running out of resources and energy to maintain the growth of it civilization, so we will witness a slow rise of fascism and extreme as countries start fighting for resources. My dream was to go in space in a few decades, now I realized that I'll consider myself extremely lucky if I have enough for and water to survive in a few decades.

  • Germanic tribes: "Bridge??? UNKNOWN TECHNOLOGY"

    Jump

  • The article is very interesting.

    Ceasar was not even interested in conquering the Germanic tribes, he just built the bridge, burned a few villages, retreated and destroyed the bridge before they could react.

    He was just sending a very clear message : do not fuck with me in Gaul.

  • Fazua vs Bosch vs Shimano vs Yamaha... which ebike motor should I buy? | BikeRadar

    Jump

  • I'm still sour about the fact that the expensive Bosch electric bike my wife bought 6 years ago is now e waste because the motor stopped working and display an error. Other than that all the mechanical aspect of the bike is still in perfect state. The gravel with a steel frame I bought at the same time is still as good as new.

    I brought it to repair but basically every shop told me that they are not allowed to open the Bosch motor, the only thing they can do is send it to Bosch SAV, which they did, the SAV responded that the motor was shot but they could send a new one for 750€.

    So I don't even know what is wrong with the motor but I need to spend 750€ + the cost of assembly by the bike shop and hope that this solves the issue, that the issue is not in the battery.

    So we got a new cargo bike to carry our newly arrived kids but this time we got a non-electric bike as a base and our local bike shop added an electric motor to it. The motor is repairable with simple tools, we can replace it with a motor from another brand, the battery is standard and if we want to remove the motor we still have a fully functional bike. This way I know the bike will still be usable in 30 years if needed.

  • What do you do to keep your bike safely locked up?

    Jump

  • What I've learned from Dutch friends is to have two different kinds of locks on your bike.

    So when I for an electric bike I for a string u lock plus a horseshoe lock

  • Congrats, you are now Flemish!

    To give some context: in Belgium there is two main regions, Flanders and Wallonia. Flemish people speaks Flemish Dutch and Walloons speak French.

    Since Flemish Dutch and French are the two official language of Belgium a lot of Fleming are learning French as a secondary language to be able to communicate with Walloons. Walloons on the other hand don't care to learn Flemish Dutch at all.

    So as consequence a lot of Flemish do know French but refuse to speak French with Walloons.

    So as a French person I ended several time in a situation where I'm trying to communicate in English with a Fleming who refuse to use French with me, until he realize by my accent that I'm not Walloons, then he would start speaking to be in French.

  • I was in a situation similar to this one in real life: having to adjust the salt level in a pool.

    In metric:

    The pool is 8*4 m long and 2m deep on average, the current salt level is 2g/l and the salt comes in 20kg bags.

    How many bags of salts do I need to pour in the pool to adjust the salt level to at least 3g/l ?

    Answer:

    ! The pool contains 8m4m2m= 64m³ or 64000l of water, I need an extra 1g/l of salt per litres so 64000l*1g/l = 64000g or 64 kg. So with 4 bags I'll have enough salt.

    In imperial:

    The pool is 20*10ft long and 5ft deep on average, the current salt level is 2000ppm and the salt comes in 40lbs bags.

    How many bags of salts do I need to pour in the pool to adjust the salt level to at least 3000ppm?

    Answer:

    ! I'm just gonna drive to the store with my truck to pick up 2 bags at the time and see if it's enough, no way I'm doing the calculation.

  • Moderation is the issue with pizza, at least for me.

    I've been making pizza and pasta from scratch. It's basically the exact same ingredients:

    • flour
    • tomatoes
    • cheese

    But when I'm making pizza I know that I can almost double the amount of flour because we are eating way more pizza than pasta.
