Aviation nerd fact #69

Planes don’t approach at idle power (not until the very last moment)

Unless you approach with a very steep angle, the kind that end with a crater on the runway. But it is frightening and rule 1 of piloting an aircraft is “when thingy gets scary, just close your eyes”

Ça va, I’ve seen worse. The brie seems awkward but I get it, l’égalité brother 😎

From the git above, it downloads an official MS iso and debloat it to create a lighter one. It’s the same as installing a normal iso and then removing stuff like one note etc, except that those are not installed by default so no need to remove them.

Specialized software from laptop brands (asus or whatever) are useless shits. You only need the drivers and an OS.

You can install Tiny11 as your base Windows OS https://github.com/ntdevlabs/tiny11builder then use a debloat like the ones linked in this thread or this one https://winutil.christitus.com/

I made that on my gaming PC (I use tons of non Linux compatible stuff for flight simming) and zero problems. It’s even riced to not look like Windows DE and act like i3wm.

Mmh?

Switzerland, meh.

I have a better job with low hours for more money but still have to be cautious about costs. They have several houses with a garden that I can only dream about.

They have a retirement plan that I can only dream about and an happy life while I’m ok-ish but depressive.

But I have 10Gbs fiber optic internet and a NAS+Seedbox so there’s that.

So, same as last time that led to the Rafale? (aka France saying merde I’ll do my own plane myself)

I went to the store with an objective, resist my urge for chocolate.

I did not realize we are after valentine day, it was packed with heart shaped chocolate at -50% next to huge chocolate bunnies cause it is somewhat already Easter?

Oh well, maybe I’ll resist better next time 🤷🏻‍♂️

MOO, My Only One.

It’s just because when saying it sounds like a cow mooing

The fediverse community is !tipiak@anarchist.nexus

Tipiak is a kinda slang way of saying pirate. It comes from an old tv ad from a food company named Tipiak. 3 old grandma screamed “pirate !” after discovering that the food tastes the same as their own secret family recipe (supposedly). It became sort of a meme and is used to say pirate. As the French language is not difficult enough for our English neighbours, we started to conjugate the word: Ce soir je vais tipiaker ce film (tonight I’m going to pirate (download) that film).

The same word is used in the answer from @obercail@jlai.lu with even a new variant: Tipiakeries (pirate thingy)

The two main French torrents tracker (private tracker) are:

• https://www.yggtorrent.org/ (domain tld change regularly)
• https://la-cale.space/ (recently created after bad decision by ygg, and growing)

You already answered yourself, use them as your !homelab@selfhosted.forum

You can start with an OS like YunoHost if you don’t feel comfortable. Next step, to mee, would be an immutable Linux docker machine with podman.

But YunoHost is already a good start and you can have a multimedia server, nextcloud or anything else (example, paperless ngx to scan, organize and store your important documents with OCR to search them)

Officially it is Meta. Facebook is owned by Meta but the Quest headset is not a Facebook product. I get it, it’s easier to say Facebook for everything owned by Zuk, like saying Google for Youtube instead of Alphabet.

But it is not precise nor true and plenty of comments here are saying “just leave Facebook” while OP did not post about Facebook nor having a social media account there.

And TBH, I think all VR headset are kinda ugly, it’s either big rectangle brick on your head or big round brick on your head.

Also the piefed main dev is nice normal human being with humanist views of the world. He has a rational discourse toolkit box with links about how to handle extremism, disinformation and stuff like that.

Piefed would be much better aligned with your views.

Because it is not a post about Facebook but about the VR Headset Quest 2 and/or 3.

Sadly, the Meta Quest is kind of the best deal in the PC VR world.

What do you mean?

To me the problem would be modifying the lifetime pass or simply removing it (for new customers) in favor of a fucking subscription only.

I’m glad to announce that you’ve been promoted to 1st line starship space marines troopers.

Make us proud, for Earth and controlled democracy.

While I agree that the universe is too vast for any species to meet another one, I secretly hope that if we do it will unite us.

That humanity will realize we are the same species, stop fighting and ruining our world to go fight them and ruin their world (cause that’s what we do and love).

Also that we will react with the golden retriever mindset of two existential questions:

• Can I eat this?
• Can I fuck this?

Strange, we have 4 peoples for whom it’s happening way too often, meanwhile I barely even see the communities sidebar and I really have to look for it.

I’m also unable to open this sidebar when I’m on a post.

I’m on iPhone, if that helps. Are you all 4 on android and this could be some sort of different gesture between the two OS?

Or, kinda dumb hypothesis, are you all left handed? The communities button is on the top left so maybe scrolling with your left hand makes it more prone to touch that button?
