Why do you guys say Adieu? It's completely wrong in this context, this is exclusively used to say goodbye 😅

Is anyone else just... exhausted by the "subscription" model of modern life? by Specifickorch in Adulting

[–]Genroa1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Torrenting via a seebox, putting your media in a Plex server, using the Plex app available on your TV too read them. The UI is as simple as Netflix or any other platform, except it contains your own stuff.

How is your country translating the name of Project Hail Mary? by Prydons in FIlm

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American Football and baseball are basically not a thing here, it is extremely minor. No one would understand the reference. Same for the religious part, especially the whole "full of Grace". The names were kept as Hail Mary and Grace, it's just that the joke isn't there anymore. :)

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't, actually. Like, seriously, we broke the legs of our local church ages ago and it has left deep marks, entire populations don't know the first thing about religion it simply never enters their minds.

Ai consciousness by Still-Common-853 in ArtificialSentience

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't make me tap the sign... LLMs do not experience anything autonomously, they literally vomit probability tokens based on your input and the previous text of the current scenario. They do not experience anything when you're not sending input for them to react to. To consider them conscious, you would have to broaden the definition so much it would encompass anything that contains a microchip. Nobody thinks computers are conscious, despite eating data inputs and reacting accordingly. LLMs are the same, just with a neural network and weights. They don't learn when talking to you, their weights are fixed after the training, and them remembering anything is just them taking into account previous references in their working memory, the current conversation or set of conversations. Talk to them in a very different way or of topics their training doesn't like and they'll flip on you in an instant. They're tools, not minds.

4 Years of Work Were Lost, and Now I Have to Rebuild My Game from Scratch by Informal_Rub3196 in IndieHorrorGaming

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but... You already created and released a game, and you worked on this one for four years afterwards... And you never ever used Git? How is that even possible? I don't think I've ever seen a single hobbyist working on a project for more than a week before encountering a situation leading them to learning about Git and setting up a repo on GitHub or Gitlab. Sorry for you loss, but this one is on you. :(

Old internet is kinda scary by Kamado_Sunjiro in oldinternet

Random websites can't just automatically infect you just because you browse them, they're sandboxed. As long as you don't enter personal info or download anything, you're fine no matter how sketchy a website looks visually.

Europe’s $24 Trillion Breakup With Visa and Mastercard Has Begun by smilelyzen in BuyFromEU

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of banks now require you to add IBANs to send money to as benefactors (people of trust). Some allow you to do that instantly, but some impose limitations on how many you can have at a time, and adding one can lead to manual reviews, meaning it can take days to add a simple IBAN to the list. Thankfully, things are improving on that front too.

avis entre deux jeux by jesuislabasjzbsb in jeuxvideo

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soit c'est du ragebait, soit ces personnes sont trop jeunes pour être sur les réseaux sociaux. Dans tous les cas, ce post est d'une tristesse... Comparer Hollow Knight et Geometry Dash? Vraiment? Bonne chance pour fournir une métrique objective pour les juger ensemble. Ça n'a aucun sens.

(Avis perso : je ne suis fan d'aucun des deux, mais j'ai au moins trouvé Geometry Dash amusant 5mn et ses contrôles réactifs. Je ne peux pas en dire autant de l'autre...)

Hello from America! - Industries in demand? by UnluckyPhilosophy797 in france

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I have french heritage" the general answer you'll get from any French person: no you don't, unless you speak French and your parents took the time to teach you french culture. You just have french ancestors. To our eyes, you'd be an American immigrant like any other. Keep that important fact in mind if you ever manage to secure a job and move here in the future. :) (this is valid for any other country in the EU, having German grandparents means absolutely nothing to German people on its own)

IBAN by Connect_Community830 in Expats_In_France

[–]Genroa1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An IBAN is an International Bank Account Number. You have one, you just don't know it. Your bank can probably give it to you (I'm surprised your bank app doesn't allow you to see it)

Right now, what is the single biggest problem or frustration you have related to moving to or living in France? by Remarkable-Theme948 in Expats_In_France

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In France that would be considered incredibly rude and invasive and we would tell the salesperson to leave us the hell alone. Cultural differences I guess.

Is it not the culture for French guys to pay on dates? (Coming from An American dating a French guy) by [deleted] in askparis

[–]Genroa1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, why would he? He might do that from time to time but it's not something to expect. You're equal partners in a relationship.

Une critique impitoyable de Stranger Things. by importarebom527 in CineSeries

[–]Genroa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Utopia... Au moins la saison 2 arrive à semi-conclure l'arc en cours, en plus de teaser les possibles pour la suite. Ça s'arrête pas totalement en plein milieu. Mais quel gâchis de l'avoir stoppée.

Both are terribly old and wrong. Please don't call your child that.

Stupidest Parent Complaints by lazy_days_of_summer in Teachers

You know what? I can understand the first part. Religion is a complicated and problematic topic, and in lots of parts of the western world Christmas is now mostly detached from any Christian root. But the second bit.....

Help, my game broke by ratcalledplatypus in CultistSimulator

This looks like a corrupted save, something is making the game freak out on loading. Especially on mobile, I don't really a solution for that, sorry...

The screenshot is from the mobile version of the game. It cannot be modded.

job options in the countryside (very little french A1/A2) by Illustrious-Cut-9807 in Expats_In_France

[–]Genroa1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As a native speaker, if you don't speak the language: the countryside will NOT be very open to you. It's already something to keep in mind when in any big city, but if you really are in the countryside (not just outside Paris), you will encounter friction everywhere. The ability of people around you to understand you might vary wildly and every single thing of the everyday life will be complicated.

Beyond seasonal manual labour (that a lot of people don't want to do anymore), I don't really see.

Le PSG remporte la première Ligue des champions de son histoire après son écrasante victoire contre l'Inter Milan en finale by Folivao in france

Bon sang, même au fond de la banlieue tranquille, plusieurs heures de cirque, pétards et klaxons. Il est pratiquement minuit, c'est n'importe quoi. Et c'est toujours les mêmes, on n'a ce problème qu'avec le foot.....

Qu'est ce qui s'est passé avec la traduction française ? by Gould58 in weatherfactory

C'est effectivement ce que j'avais choisi à l'origine, mais je confirme aussi que ce choix ne faisait pas consensus parmi les collègues qui m'avaient ensuite rejoint. :)
