A 50-something French dude that's old enough to think blogs are still cool, if not cooler than ever. I also like to write and to sketch.
Je ne connais pas Microlinux, mais :
À l'heure actuelle, beaucoup de systèmes Linux font la transition de X11 vers Wayland. J'ai opté pour une session X11 par défaut, étant donné que c'est une technologie mûrie et que Wayland affiche encore quelques défauts de jeunesse qui peuvent s'avérer agaçants au quotidien.
J'aime beaucoup ça aussi, trouvé sur la home page :
Je déploie des systèmes informatiques ennuyeux et sobrement efficaces (...)
En tant qu'utilisateur, je n'ai aucun parti pris pour ou contre X11 ou Wayland (je ne suis même pas certain de ce qui tourne sur ma Linux Mint, X11 je pense), mais j'apprécie que le système ne devienne pas une source de friction pour son utilisateur juste parce quelqu'un quelque part en amont aura décidé qu'il est de bon ton de changer pour une techno nouvelle qui pourrait, peut-être encore mûrir un peu avant de devenir le choix par défaut.
En tant qu'utilisateur, je serais peut-être capable de me dépatouiller avec des soucis d’affichage mais uniquement en y passant beaucoup de temps (et en y perdant leu peu qui me reste de cheveux) ce que je préfère éviter, surtout pour le temps: ce qui me reste de cheveux étant plus anecodtique qu'autre chose.
A ma décharge : je suis tellement pas obsédé à l’idée d’utiliser les nouvelles technologies que j’écris encore à la plume sur du papier… et ce n’est pas faute d’avoir essayé un paquet de technos plus sophistiquées (j’ai même un iPad et son Pencil)… La seule techno qui m’avait à peu près convaincu que ça valait le papier, c’était plus son système d’écriture simplifiée que par le matériel lui-même (qui était bien) c’était le Palm Pilot et son système écriture manuscrite dont j’ai oublié le nom.
Bref, assez de radotages de vieux. Paraît que j’ai encore des réunions à assister aujourd’hui… toutes en visio, quel monde ;)

More or less 0. Just like I don't use my phone much, I seldom use any data. I don't watch/listen to content on my phone, I don't take much photos. I don't even check my emails.
I just checked on their website, for January I'm sitting at an impressive 360 megs (130 giga available monthly) but this month is a massive increase in my usual data consumption as I've taken a lot more pictures than I use to (we're visiting new apartments).
I pay 12€/m each for both my spouse and mine (each with a 130g plan that we never use, it's the smallest plan we could get), plus 2€/m for a third line that has no data plan at all (that we use as a 'trash/publicly shared number' we almost never answer). This cheap plan could suit us if it wasn't that limited when moving abroad (the reason why I pay for those 130g plans we don't use is they don't have those limits) and if it had some data associated to it for those rare times when we need it, like it just happened this month. Those plans are all without engagement (and we provide our own phones)
Here in France, customers need to regularly check their invoice to make sure the operator has not silently activated a new 'feature' free 'for the first month' that automatically switch to the paid tier the following month. Without the customer asking anything. It happens very often. And it can quickly ad up.

As much as needed for the story to exist? I mean, We're not talking watching porn here, we're talking watching a movie or a series, aka a story. Sex is a legit part of many stories but outside of porn I don't think it's that often required.
So, if there is no story or if the main selling point of the series is to show sex scenes or play with sex allusions, I will quit watching it very fast, no matter how soft/hard gay/straight/fluid/whatever the sex scenes in it can be. I don't give a, you guessed it, fuck ;)
An apple among many other fruits, some salad with a light dressing.I may also hunt for bare carrots, Bugs Bunny like ;)
A slice of handmade bread I just cut, too. Just the bread, it tastes so good.
Read the doc, like suggested: man pages, online doc. A book, even. Then, trial and error.It's ok to fail trying to fix something, it's not to not even try, at least I think so ;)
Does anyone else feel this way? Have you found ways to reconnect with technology?
I've been stepping away slowly for a few years now. Back to low-tech and analog... and back to privacy/ownership/control. I don't plan on giving up on tech at all, I just put it back at its place which is one tool in my toolbox that contains many more. One tool that, I quickly realized, was not even the most essential (pen and paper would be, for me).
Thx a lot for the detailed explanation.
a nice map of where you went
I can't understand how people would be... that careless and be willing to publicly share such a risky type of data, though. Well, exactly like you mentioned: we know some weirdos could easily abuse that kind of information to harm those users.
Just so you know: we have not owned a tv since 2000. And, as much as possible, we eat healthy food. I mean, no industrially processed (and over packaged) junk/industrial fast or not fast food. Even our bread is handmade (not by us, we would not have enough room, but by the small local bakery that makes everything the good old way) ;)
I considered a smaller dog but since we're both not in the best health... I just can't. At least, I can regularly see dogs at the park, and sometimes I will pet them.
I can easily imagine that and I would love to be able to say I am too :)
Most of my life, I lived with one dog or more... When my mast dog passed away, some 20 years ago, we moved in this big city, in a very small flat... a dog is not even a realistic option here. Even less so that my spouse are getting old and I would worry what will happen to our dog after we pass.
Sure, not all communities are the same, that's fine. There are plenty of communities I'm not interested or I see I won't fit in. There are others I don't have that impression.
. I like it a lot here but I feel like I need to engage a bit myself to create the great discussions I used to simply observe on Reddit.

How to create great discussions on Lemmy?
I can't tell about 'great' save that it has a lot to do with both the topic discussed and the people involved, but I consider being honest combined with 1) not being afraid (ie, no self-censoring) and 2) not trying to create polemics (throwing random shit knowing at least one will trigger some emotional reactions) as an excellent starting point to a potentially interesting discussion.
(Yesterday, I was reading (not commenting) a thread on some public transportation discussion. It was very interesting.)
Next to that, and equally important imho: don't try to push new content for the sake of adding content. No matter how clumsy or simple, I prefer posts that the OP finds genuinely worth sharing or discussing with others. I don't need to be entertained with constant new content. Like with eating, I prefer quality over quantity ;)
Can I reply after a day or two if I am too busy to reply immediatly?
Sure. Some like me won't mind (I do that too) while others won't like it, and some can't even be bothered to click a discussion that is more than a day old. That's fine. It's their right to prefer freshness but they also don't own Lemmy and they don't get to decide how we should all use it.Lemmy is ours to make it exactly what we want it to be. So, make if yours by answering/participating at your own pace :)
Son Dune est la seule adaptation fidèle à l'esprit du roman de Herbert, amha, mais elle est aussi une adaptation très libre.
You mean, like publicly sharing one's stats and achievements?
I see. For me it has become something I need to do. I will just feel like shit the day I can't ;)
I use the clock and a mix of various destinations to make sure I will walk enough. For that I just need a good old wrist watch for that, without any tracking included.
Walking also helped me lose quite some extra-weight, so if I may say so myself: congrats, that's great :)
Hésite pas. Dans le pire des cas, tu accrocheras toujours pas (pas grave, surtout si tu t’en rends compte rapidement). Avec Lynch, je dirais qu'il faut accepter de le laisser se faire plaisir avec la bande son et avec les images, si tu lui accordes ça tu as une chance d’entrer dans le film (sans même remonter à eraserhead, j’avais eu du mal à entrer dans Blue Velvet, avec le recul je suis content d’avoir insisté ;).
Et puis faut aussi se dire qu’il a probablement pas mal été tenu en laisse pour faire une série « regardable ». mais bon, là c’est 100 % extrapolation ;)
This may be a silly question but what is the interest of this type of apps for an average user? I mean, I do daily walks as my main physical activity and never felt any need to use an app to track/log my activities. So, I'm just curious to know what is the incentive to download an use such an app?
On regarde Twin Peaks, sur le site web de Arte.tv.
Je suis loin d'être un expert en séries TV mais de ce que j'en connais ça reste une des très rares production qui essaye sincèrement de pousser le téléspectateur à bas de son confortable petit fauteuil de routines et de ficelles scénaristiques éculées, de certitudes faciles, de jugements aussi bornés que rassurants. C'est troublant, et ça c'est rare.
Cette série, avec ses très nombreux défauts, pourrait bien être unique en son genre. Comme son réalisateur, en fait.
Maybe but its also super off putting to people looking on from the outside and wju do we need 500 flavours of Debian based distros when interested developers perhaps would be better tasked working om a few projects to inwprove things
maybe those newbies would not have a single 'linux' to look at at if that was not for that fragmentation that seem to be so much of an issue...
The people working for free to make Linux what it is are doing it on the simple idea they have been promised: their freedom (and right) to make Linux what they want Linux to be. Not to make it what some group of users or some manager want them to make it.
It's many flavours, like you called it, is in the Linux DNA like freedom is ;)
Edit: rephrasing (it's early around here, not slept much ;)
Not sure to understand your remark. I mean, like you noticed, most planets save the earth (soil) are named after Roman (and a few Greek) divinities; aka Western names.
Beside that to answer your question I would say: 1, 2, 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Or if they were to be renamed in a more considerate way, we would need to know why they need to be renamed. I mean is there any reason to change the names? I like 'Bob' a lot by I'm not sure it would make for great name for 'Mars', nor would 'Penelope' (another Greek character btw, unlike Bob) for 'Venus' ;)
