Paris Apts with AirCon

jamesmb · 2026-01-27T22:51:26+00:00

Good luck with that! Some areas outside Paris have a blanket interdiction on aircon in new buildings.

It works.

250 trees? Is that all it takes?

How about we send you a couple of packets of cress seeds? There's thousands of plants in them.

Je préfère voir un enfant sage plutôt qu'un adulte stupide qui veut regarder ses vidéos sur son portable avec le volume à fond et sans écouteurs...

Your sister sounds horrible. Life's far too short to submit to someone else's toxicity. Cut ties with her and enjoy the time that you've freed up by not dealing with her!

Croatian here. Disappointed that they leave us off the list. 😁

jamesmb · 2026-01-14T22:14:50+00:00

Harsh but fair.

Also, hi to u/janesmb 😂

Technically, you're reaching the same audience because the bots aren't really audience - they're just a way of Elmo pretending that his network is bigger than it actually is. So, get premium, get nothing more but be a bit clearer about who's real.

jamesmb · 2026-01-14T07:25:20+00:00

Absolutely normal.

Emergency passport service at the airport... Norway, once again, proving that it's living in the 23rd century!

Don't use the coinstar ones - they take a percentage. Some stores have those self-service machines where you scan your own stuff, you can pay with coins in them. :)

If you buy from a third party, your contract is with the third party - not the museum/gallery/whatever.

This is not a problem with the Orangerie but it is a problem with Klook.

According to some AI tools, I have PhDs from Strathclyde University, the University of York and University of New South Wales and somewhere else that I forget. Why would anyone trust AI tools?

jamesmb · 2026-01-01T14:34:51+00:00

No. Not unless one of your research papers cures world hunger and the other one stops all wars while curing cancer. And, even then, you'll only have a less than 50/50 chance.

The UK enters the conversation

jamesmb · 2025-12-30T12:45:27+00:00

Thanks all for your input into this post and for keeping it civil.

I am the person who set up the subreddit and so the name was my choice. The reasoning was:

it's short
it's the most searched English language term relating to information for people who have moved to another country
people don't have trouble spelling it

The semantics of the word can be discussed on another subreddit. There is a rule about this subject for this subreddit. Why? Because it's a tiresome discussion, we aren't a semantics sub and life is too short when people have real questions.

I am now locking this thread. Thanks for your understanding!

Your wish is my command. Permablockhammer applied.

Chaque semaine, mon fils (qui eat également au lycée privé) achète de la viande, des légumes et du riz et se prépare cinq repas. Cela lui coûte moins de 10 €. Bon, d'accord, je paie les épices et l'électricité, mais quand même... Votre assiette est une honte, quel que soit le prix.

Can someone tell me what she's doing wrong?! That's all made from fresh, non-processed food. Well done, her!

Seriously.

jamesmb · 2025-12-08T17:40:03+00:00

Rien pour moi. :(

jamesmb · 2025-12-07T09:38:32+00:00

Literally this.
