I'm an old gamer (almost 50) and I don't have time to play every game out there. I know that I should play Symphony of the Night but haven't had time to try it yet, but I will.

Hollow Knight is fun for me because it's not complicated, it's pretty, the music is nice (I bought it on Bandcamp), and it's a slow game with a lot of levels and a quiet and/or peaceful lore. I haven't played it for a long time (any kind of game actually because I'm busy) but I know that when I try it again, it will be there as usual, and I will be able to explore old or new levels whether I have 10 minutes or 2 hours to play.

I don't know if it's a good metroidvania and I don't think I care. I would put it on the same level as Shantae: there is no rush, have fun. You may say that it's good for old people and I would agree. There are slow metroidvanias (Hollow Knight, Shantae, Guacamele 1/2) and fast metroidvania (Shovel Knight maybe) where you have to play regularly or you may forget what the thing is all about. With Hollow Knight, the story will stay in my head for a long time.

Last but not least, I would put Metroid (and the 2D variants: SNES, GBA) in the slow category since you can stop playing for some time and get back to the story without too much hassle. I guess it depends whether you prefer the Metroid OR the Vania side of those games.

2025 after the Fourth Coming of Jesus, which should be the year 5837 for us.

Et elle est ministre en plus ? Bravo. Je comprends qu'il y a sans doute un protocole à suivre mais ça serait plus simple si : on continue les débats, la ministre est virée et interdite de faire de la politique à vie. Mais on préfère prendre des pincettes.

Sinon j'aime l'article pour ceux qui ont un VPN : "Access Denied" Merci Libération.

I already knew how to touch type with QWERTY/AZERTY and I switched to Colemak because it's modern, it seemed good, and it is supported by every OS out of the box (except for iOS and the iPhone which was a problem for me). Colemak-DH should be no different except for the DH keys but I wouldn't worry about it.

It took me one year to be able to type fast in Colemak without making mistakes. It's so fucking worth it!! You can also use https://monkeytype.com/ to train on random texts or words, but I'm a lazy guy and I only did that for 3 months like 10 minutes a day.

Last but not least, put Colemak-DH on your phone (Android only I guess, definitely not iOS) if you can. I had an iPhone before with QWERTY, and I guess it somehow hindered my learning because I was still using QWERTY a lot on that phone and I don't think it's a good thing. When I switched to the Google Pixel, the problems went away because I had Colemak everywhere.

the learning curve is already pretty rough

It's annoying but not that difficult. You have to do that all the time, every day, and forget the pain that is QWERTY.

When did you ever see

All the time? It's called marketing.

It happened to me and I refused in an internal email with a lot of people in CC (the CEO was included). I politely explained why it was very illegal and why I wouldn't do it. They stopped asking me because "they knew that I knew that they knew."

If it's the same kind of company, you would say yes, the client would discover the lie, and your company would fire you in less than a few minutes. You usually don't last long in that kind of environment.

That's why you must negotiate or clarify what is being asked. Once it has been accepted, it is not ambiguous anymore as long as you respect it.

And NOT yet another front page written in ReactJS.

But it would need to be reliable with a syntax, like some kind of grammar.

 

Something may come on the store tomorrow. I don’t have more information and I’m interested to know if someone else has some.

 

Hi, since I got a better job recently, I wanted to give some money every month to the various organizations available out there. I have found:

My question is: on the u24 web site, I can send money through PayPal for most aids (humanitarian, medical, etc.) EXCEPT for the defense fund. Does anyone know why? Is it because it funds robots and maybe drones and PayPal would not appreciate that?

I'm asking this question because I have never seen this mentioned anywhere since the start of the war. Thanks for reading.

Bonjour bonjour, je profite du forum libre pour poster mon inquiétude du moment. On dirait que le site web de Grammalecte n'est pas disponible et je m’inquiète un peu car j'utilise beaucoup cet outil pour écrire tout type de document sur LibreOffice. Le compte Mastodon a l'air abandonné depuis 2017 (https://mamot.fr/@grammalecte) et je ne trouve pas d'info sur ce sujet dans le différents moteurs de recherche.

Le site officiel et le repo sont inaccessibles pour le moment (https://grammalecte.net/ et https://code.grammalecte.net:8080/home). Je vois aussi que le nom de domaine expire dans une semaine, c'est la cata (https://www.whois.com/whois/grammalecte.net).

Est-ce que c'est uniquement moi parce que j'ai un VPN ou est-ce que d'autres sont impactés ? Si quelqu'un a un fork du code source, je suis preneur pour faire une sauvegarde du bazar et pourquoi pas coder quelque chose pour que ça reste disponible.
