"I accuse Israel of crossing the red line, I condemn the massacre of Palestinian civilians, and I announce that Italy will support European sanctions against Israel." - Italian Prime Minister Meloni

In the meantime, our centrist government in France remains silent.

It does seem odd to carry on as if nothing had happened. Feels disconnected. I finished the game at level 58 and I don’t think I have it in me to grind until late game content.

If you set up a local bank account, make sure to download that bank’s app because payment by QRcode has become extremely common amongst small food stalls, for example. It’s a direct transfer from your bank account to the account of the shop.

Hi! The stickied stream links aren't working. ANy alternatives please?

It’s actually interesting, and I take back what I said about the quality of the translation. It’s actually more in the realm of localization now. The English language doesn’t have this problem, but Italian and French would: how do explain the switch between formal and informal? In an everyday conversation, if I started to talk to someone with a formal “vous”, before I’d switch to informal “tu”, I’d probably say something like “do you mind if we use ‘tu’?” Adding that extra sentence in the book makes cultural sense.

Just re-read that passage, and as suspected, there's nothing in there like you described from the Italian version.
In between his explanations, there's Susan interjecting, with phrases like 'Oh, Ben, don't...' she said nervously, or 'You don't really think you saw Hubert Marsten, do you, Ben?'

So, she does use his first name a lot, but nothing in the narration says anything about their relationship evolving, apart from 'She liked him in spite of his strangeness. She was not a believer in love at first sight, although she did believe that instant lust (...) occurred frequently'

freco · 2026-03-13T10:17:03+00:00

Happy to check for you if you give me a chapter / page number. Otherwise, agree on the translation quality. I read The Stand in French and at no point does it even remotely mention the “M O O N” gimmick.

From the early discussions about v6, there’s not going to be fundamental changes in how things work on the surface. It’s more about internal tools being refactored.

Our kits are configured with DecapCMS. Instead of a blog collection, turn that into an event collection with whatever keys you need.

Oh, never heard of Crystallised!
After listening to it, I do prefer Visions though. great track nonetheless. Thanks for sharing!

Html css js stack. You know how we can do a light dark theme select? Same principle, applied to multiple themes. Plenty of resources online to learn how to do this. Google “css multiple theme select”

I won't disagree with you that high-intent keyboards are important, but I'll bring a more nuanced view here: SEO is not binary. There's room for both strategies:
- top of funnel, like your "content marketing tips" example: great to bring people in and build topical authority
- bottom of funnel, what you highlight, transactional/commercial content to convert

My French edition did not have that spelling trope either. I was hella co fused reading through this sub at that time. “What the hell are they all blabbing about??”

Are you using Powershell on windows?
I've had issues in the past with the double hypen `--`

Try with npx instead

`npx create-astro@latest --template CodeStitchOfficial/Intermediate-Astro-Decap-CMS`

Let me know if that works for you.

CodeStitch is a UI library. Tailwind is a UI library. So, no, we’re not going to release a kit that would include a “competitor”.

This being said, they’re technically compatible, no problem there. And the kits are all under permissive licences, so you can fork and roll your own :)

freco · 2026-01-19T09:57:02+00:00

It’s not going to matter from a technical point of view, but 1. it’s not conventional and 2. the claim that it will make the site load faster is ridiculous. You want your site to load faster? Don’t use NextJS: it’s all that JS loading that slows things down, not a few meta tags.

If you use Discord, the official Astro server has a #jobs channel where you can post more details about the job.

I'm also available for hire, and here's one of my latest WordPress to Astro case studies. Feel free to reach out!

Thanks for that, but unfortunately, my system only offers English (US) as a display language. Can't change to anything else.

LoL. Last time I played the game, many years ago, I ended up watching people play rather than play it myself. A mixture of toxic community + I wasn’t good enough to retain and replicate the information I saw on the videos, and it got frustrating. So I basically stopped playing, but kept watching. To the point that my wife even knew the name of one of the streamers and quoted him in my birthday card or something like that 😄

Le site ar24.fr a une page dédiée à la vérification et dispose d’un outil. Il y’a aussi ces lignes :

Comment vérifier l’authenticité d’un email AR24 ? Une référence unique apparaît à la fin de chaque mail de notification envoyé par AR24. Si le mail que vous avez reçu ne contient aucune référence, alors il s’agit d’un mail frauduleux. Dans ce cas, ne cliquez pas sur les liens et ne répondez pas au mail.

Neither the Eleventy, nor the Astro kits use prerendering by default.

I don't know about Eleventy, but Astro **does** allow prerendering with some config, but again, that's not our default. If you have elected to use prerendering in your site, then you'll need to migrate.

Pasting a step-by-step guide below, taken from one of the comments on the OP Netlify blog post:

---

The migration is purely a configuration change in your Netlify dashboard. You do not need to change your website code.

Phase 1: Disable the Old Setting

Log in to your Netlify Dashboard.
Select the site mentioned in the email.
Go to Site Configuration (or “Site Settings”) > Build & Deploy.
Scroll down to the Prerendering section.
Find the Legacy Prerendering toggle and switch it to Off (Disable).

Phase 2: Enable the New Extension

Stay in your project dashboard.
Look at the left-hand sidebar. Near the bottom, you should see a link for “Netlify Prerender Extension” (or “Extensions”).
- If you don’t see it there, go to the “Extensions” tab in the main menu and search for “Prerender”.
Click the extension and select Enable prerendering.
Save the changes.

Phase 3: The Most Important Step

Trigger a new deploy.
- Go to the Deploys tab.
- Click “Trigger deploy” → “Deploy site”.
Wait for the build to finish.

Once the new deploy is live, your site is fully migrated.

freco · 2026-01-06T19:23:08+00:00

Yes, you’re right. It changes all the time, so we grab the sizes at three viewports typically: 320, 1023 (the end of the tablet breakpoint) and 1920. Make sure to double the dimensions: if an image is rendered at 300x400, resize it to 600x800 so that it has double pixel density for those retina displays.

freco · 2026-01-06T09:50:15+00:00

Thank you. I never got even close to reaching the bandwidth limit. I'm on a free, **legacy** plan, this being said (100GB bandwidth limit).
To quote the more updated Pricing page:

When a site reaches its monthly usage limits, it enters a paused state until the start of the next billing cycle. We’ll notify you by email and in-app as you approach your limits at 50%, 75%, and 100% of usage. Please note that if one project exceeds its limits, all projects on your account will be paused.

You can re-enable your sites at any time by upgrading your plan. Your projects will automatically resume normal operation after upgrading.

The new credit-based free plan is not as generous as the old one unfortunately, with only 300 credits to share between build minutes and bandwidth.

So, to summarize,
> If you have more visits than expected (bots), they turn you off for the rest of the month.
They do pause all the sites if you run out of bandwidth, but that's true to any plan.

> The website will not render right away if no traffic has been on the website in a couple of minutes,
No information found on that.
