I use Signal's "note to self" conversation. Since you can install the desktop version of Signal on basically any OS, it is almost perfectly cross-platform.

I'm living in Toulouse, France, for context

I'm French and get mocked for saying sweatshirt instead of sweetshirt (as French do)... It's a real conundrum.

But what if you bend the fiber ? "Clearly, such fibres would be less suitable for high fibre-count cables; they would be stiffer and less bendable, both from a mechanical and an optical point of view. For example, their critical bend radius would increase from 4.2 cm to 8.4 cm and 16 cm, respectively, in the examples above (Fig. 4b)" 4.2 cm to 8.4 cm and 16 cm, so maybe only for undersea cables.

If you like science fiction, I just finished reading Semiosis by Sue Burke. A story about colonists starting a new life on the planet Pax and their alliances with sentient indigenous plant species. A really great read ! EDIT : grammar

The source is a fake website with the only articles being about criticizing Tesla. I am not a fan of Tesla or Musk, to say the least, but this is no better than X's propaganda....

I can make one. Do you have preferred instance ?

Hi there, Canigou from France. Space exploration enthusiast. I've been mostly lurking on the sub until now but I'd be happy to try out the moderator role !

Never underestimate people's stupidity ^^

 

Bon, c'est un poteau de très faible effort (merci à https://news.ycombinator.com/, AKA Hacker News) mais ça serait dommage de passer à côté.
