55·5 days agoIt happens, I once ask a question about a spinning wheel and the rpm required to have 1G. chatGPT started a couple of calculus and in the end answered that to have 1G, the diameter should be 7 times the radius. I answered back “this does not make sense, a diameter is by definition 2 times the radius”, it apologized and redid the right calculus :)
We called them “pousse-pousse” in France, it means “push-push”, because you had to push the plastic thing from the bottom to push ice cream up.
3·6 days agoX too, steady job, ok pay, lucky enough to have bought a house before COVID, but not enough to save thousands of $ for retreat.
29·6 days agoI am an embedded developer, I take the HW from office to bring at home, in the basement I have my “home office” with benches, soldering station, oscilloscope, etc so I can fully develop here. Working on a kitchen corner table would not be doable, true
Software developer here, WFH since March 2020, I don’t want to go back to office. If I would apply for a new job, my first question would be “is this 99% remote?” because I don’t mind once a month going there from like 10 to 2 to avoid trafic jam.

Why did you start using linux? it was the 80s/90s, windows didn’t exist, I used un*x at uni, of course I couldn’t install HPUX, AIX, Solaris or IRIX on my 386, so I installed Linux. There was minix but it was not free. Also BSD was tempting.
Origin? A couple of floppy images downloaded from usenet :) there was no distro really.

6·10 days agoThe live action movie, especially director’s cut, is amazing! I loved the serie too.
Shatner is bald
I’m using MX, debian based, apt package, I have 0 flatpak/snap. They are up to date on about everything, like the latest Firefox I got this morning in a simple .deb that nala (apt frontend) installed without problems.
I never ever installed a snap/flat in my Linux years.
I liked the comics, I liked the movie (director’s cut) and the serie was a 10/10
Same, I’m using MX Linux with native .deb and never ever installed a flatpak, so I have no clue what it is
