Couldn't agree more. Destroying our planet faster just so people don't have to write their own emails seems insane to me. Google literally wants to use private nuclear reactors to power their AI projects... Do people really think that won't be expensive, both economically and climate-wise?

My brother and I quote this money to this day, such a classic.

"How could he see me?"

I did the opposite lol.

No, good guess though!

Lyon is pretty great. Depending on the vibe you're going for, Marseille is also pretty awesome. I'd avoid it in the middle of the summer, but shoulder season down south is amazing. The weather is great, the people are friendly (if you avoid the worst parts of town, like anywhere) and the food is a nice mix of traditional French and Mediterranean cuisine. And make sure to get a flight of Ricard.

Through victory my chains are broken. For the Empire! In all seriousness though, it's fictional space fantasy. When I was a kid, watching the OG trilogy, I always supported the rebels, but as I got older I slowly became way more into the empire. Sometimes it's just fun to root for the bad guys. Also the dogmatic nature of the Jedi becomes glaringly more obvious as you get older.

Guitar pedals. My collection is fairly modest (20-30 pedals) but I have some neat pieces, like a couple Japanese Boss pedals from the 80's. They are functional so I don't feel like it's a waste of space per se. Also they look cool, so there's that.

Hmm. C'est peut-être anecdotique, mais mon expérience en France a été tout à fait contraire. Presque personne parle pas une autre langue que le français, et si c'est le cas, c'est l'anglais. Souvent, je pose des questions sur le patois local (savoyard) personne n'y connaît rien. C'est triste. La Savoie fait partie de la France depuis 170 ans, mais malheureusement la culture unique s'est diluée. J'ai le sentiment que quelque chose unique est perdu lorsqu'une langue se perd dans le temps. Je crois ce que l'anglais fait au monde, le français l'a déjà fait à la France. Je pense que nos positions différentes sur ce sujet sont une question de perspective, c'est sûr.

C'est clair. Il y a beaucoup de choses que je préfère dans ma vie ici (par exemple la nourriture, mode de vie, etc.), mais je crois qu'on peut pas juger des autres pour leur ignorance. Si on fait ça, on est pas meilleur.

Move to a new country. Make life work for you, not the opposite.
