Yeah sorry about that buddy.

Hopefully if it comes to that you’ll be able to escape, but I know plenty of americans don’t even have a passport or money to travel a few states away, so even less means to escape abroad (and I’m not even talking about the various immigration rules).

I feel you, but I chose to see another possible future.

A positive one, this one https://cleantechnica.com/2024/11/06/world-moving-on-without-usa-as-it-declines/ to be precise.

TLDR: Only the USA will slowly die, ignored by the rest of the world. Europe, China, India and Latam will be the winners and won’t go to war to eachother cause they don’t need and don’t want to. Green energy will flourish everywhere except in the US of A that will rot. It is sad for its population but at least the rest of the world will grow bigger and better.

I know this is a leftist utopia, but I chose to believe (and thus fight) for something better rather than plunge into depression.

It is very good but depend on what you want to host.

I have a second hand cheapest M2 with Asahi Linux and some container (like pihole) but not much. I like that it is small, silent and energy efficient (and it can run Xplane12 in 4k !). But I have an homemade NAS so most of the multimedia stuff and containers are on here and not on the MacMini.

The M4 seems incredible, but Asahi Linux only support M1 and 2 at the moment (it might work with M4 tho).

The problem with the mini would be disk space if you are looking for a NAS usage, although I have seen here on lemmy a dude making a Mac Mini NAS (can’t find the post anymore).

But even without Asahi, an M4 with Mac OS, docker and a VM if needed would be plenty of power for price and energy. You can also upgrade to a 10Gbe NIC if your network supports it. Plug it to some screens and you have a workstation + docker server in one place.

Say that to [email protected]

OP is talking about an esoteric pseudoscience named astral projection.

I don’t know if I want to believe in it or not, but I’ve never heard about missions and closing portals.

Ah thanks I was waiting for someone to put ‘le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain’.

It was Jeffrey Epstein, but yeah same shit.

lol, I only know the selecta ones but I’ll try the wurstaumat next time I’m in the german part of the ruesti.

No you got it right, kudos to your high school French!

Trust and respect are some of the core principles in Swiss education and society. There are those well known newspapers stands that always amaze tourists. They are not locked nor monitored but people still pay for the newspaper.

For the restaurants it can be true but most places will know what you had only because the cash register system works like that (like they take the order on a phone that automatically sends everything to the kitchen and till). It’s mostly because all the systems available on the market works like that.

But as everywhere, things are changing for the worse, there’s more and more violence, disrespect etc.

Fun fact, I once had French friends visiting and they saw a field where you can take fruits yourself, weight them and pay the according price. No human supervision, no cameras. They were amazed and told me “In France we wouldn’t pay for the fruits, steal the money box AND the weighting machine”

That is most likely the right answer.

I’m in Switzerland and we have vending machines (not as cool as the Japanese ones tho) because we walk past them everyday.

They are generally on the pavement near post offices, at train stations and other large public transportation places. For a time there was cigarettes vending machines near bars but I think those are now forbidden.

Not sure about the thumb one but for screws with only have:

• Visser : sens des aiguilles d’une montre (clockwise)
• Dévisser : sens contraire des aiguilles d’une montre (anti clockwise)

75% of people working shifts around or inside an aircraft are alcoholics. Never before or at work, but days off are a shit show.

We don’t really have dates in my culture. Either we like each other and hookup or we don’t. So when you finally go to the restaurant or whatever, it is with someone you already know and not a total stranger.

But I’m referring to IRL meetups, where you meet people during social events like a party, going to a bar etc (I do that as an introvert that loves being alone, I just don’t go out every night).

I’ve never tried apps like Tinder so maybe the first rendez-vous could be considered a date. I don’t know and don’t plan to discover it.

It’s in French but the lyrics are a cover letter for a job, telling the hard truth about how she is unhappy to apply to an unknown company for a job she doesn’t want to do, only because she needs money.

Nice, it’s probably the ancestor of the TOSA which is the same thing without the flywheel, and also from Switzerland.

Amir, we don’t care about SEO and your 50min old account only posts about that.

Fediverse is the wrong place to spam enshitification methods, this is not Reddit. We only care about cats and bearded users of Arch.

Hardware related on a Linux home built NAS.

My mobo has 2 nvme ports and supports 10th and 11th gen intel cpu. I have a 10th gen i5 and 2 nvme ssd for cache.

The biggest 512Gb ssd is on the front (normal) side of the mobo, under a heatsink. The smaller 128Gb is under the mobo, inaccessible once fixed onto the case.

In bios and in OS I can’t see the 512 cache drive, only the 128. Quick RTFM on the motherboard manual states: “Front nvme slot only works with 11th gen cpu”.

FFS 🤦‍♂️

The server is fully built in a hard to fit everything ITX case.

Guess who is having only 128Gb cache instead of disassembling everything ?
