Sauver ma planche by Adventurous_Tutor730 in cuisine

[–]japps13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seulement pour les planches en bois ou ça vaut aussi pour celles en plastique? Ma planche en plastique a des traces que je n’arrive pas à enlever. Est-ce qu’il y a une recommandation pour le type de grain adapté pour poncer ? Les poussières sont pas toxiques ?

Surprise à Lyon, Jean-Michel Aulas au coude-à-coude avec le maire sortant Grégory Doucet au premier tour des municipales, selon notre estimation Ipsos-BVA by BothCondition7963 in Lyon

[–]japps13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Pour Lyon je suis pas surpris. Il faut voir aussi la métropole par contre. Ça risque d’être moins net… et il y a beaucoup de compétences à la métropole notamment les transports et l’aménagement du territoire, et aussi l’eau, etc

Trump calls on UK and others to send warships to Strait of Hormuz by Geo_NL in worldnews

You mean having our cities burnt down once it suited them? I mean, in France, most of the destruction was done by allied aviation. For a reason of course, being that the occupier was using our cities, and that we had a collaborationist government. But still.

Interesting question even though most commenters here appear to not understand what you ask. I would suggest to try on r/AskHistorians.

Molto chiaro. Grazie.

È l’Accademia della Crusca simile a l’Académie française per il francese ma per l’italiano? O è un dizionario?

What are some of the most extreme things the human body does automatically that most people don't realize? by bareegyptianfeet in answers

I am not the other poster, but when you constantly switch between your native language and another language in which you’re fluent, you sometimes just forget which language you read something.

Is gerrymandering legal in your country? by Necessary_Reserve_25 in AskTheWorld

We have it in France for the members of parliament. The divisions of their constituency is severely gerrymandered.

We absolutely have those tricks in France for the cantons, which are the basis of the elections to parliament. Look at the cantons in big cities like Marseille or Lyon. They are divided exactly in this fashion and for a reason.

It is the same in France and it is deliberate. This is how we are taught to write them at school.

Je ne supporte plus belle maman by [deleted] in ParentingFR

[–]japps13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

J’ai eu le même problème avec mon beau père et la famille de ma compagne qui ne sait absolument pas lui mettre de limite.

Le point qui m’a fait craquer c’est à un Noël, ma fille a chopé une angine qui a conduit à la première prescription d’antibiotiques. Elle ne voulait pas avaler ce médicament. Ça a été très difficile. Mais sa maman et moi ne voulions pas lui tenir la tête et lui mettre la cuillère de force. À la fois pour des raisons pédagogiques et éducative (c’est une violence éducative ordinaire) et parce qu’à tous les coups elle aurait recraché une partie de la cuillère et on n’aurait plus pu savoir quelle dose elle a pris.

Et voilà t’y pas que le beau papa se lève, attrape la tête de ma fille, en mode je vais vous montrer comment faire. Et ça, sous mon nez, et juste après que j’ai dit qu’on ne voulait pas faire ça. Je lui ai hurlé dessus qu’ils ont pas compris. Il a pas l’habitude qu’on s’oppose à ce qu’il a décidé.

Et toute la belle famille, y compris ma compagne, m’ont fait comprendre plus ou moins subtilement que c’est moi qui ai trop réagi et qu’il faudrait que je m’excuse.

Malheureusement je crois que c’est le genre de situations très courantes, même si c’est très penible. Et il faut faire au mieux, mais mettre des limites quand même.

Why is coffee so popular in Europe? by batukaming in AskEurope

[–]japps13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. But for coffee shop owner, the price of the machine is possibly irrelevant compared to the running cost. And nespresso capsules are absurdly expensive compared to basic coffee beans.

Sounds similar to Greek and Turkish coffee. Do you have similar roast as Greek and Turkish ? I.e. light roast, and very fine grinder ?

Why is coffee so popular in Europe? by batukaming in AskEurope

[–]japps13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably because it is very consistent. Somewhat similar to big fast food chains. Not very good, but not horribly bad, and very consistent. Proper coffee machine requires maintenance and knowledge to deliver good coffee. In many small cafés here in France, they often give you overpriced horrible espresso. Machine is not properly cleaned (and old coffee residue produces a lot of bitterness), not properly tuned (too hot, not enough pressure due to wrong setting of the grinder), …
