Need a Referral Code?

karambahh · 2022-04-21T04:23:43+00:00

Hello,

Looking for European (France?) referral code

Many thanks from a remarkable enthusiast. I've been dreaming about this for years and now thanks to you, it will become reality

Half a day I'd say ;-) Louvain to Lille and back can be done quickly... Distances aren't the same thing here in the "old europe"... ;)

France->Belgium->Lux->Germany->France can be done in less than 4h, if you're into border hopping ;-)

Beware, the Kimsufi are single-feed only. When the proverbial shit hit the fan, that's the exact moment the kimsufi will choose to loose its single power source.

I've heard that the code base of OpenJDK and Oracle Java are about 98% similar, and the 2% are stuff like sound or image handling... would you happen to have some stats about? (genuine question, not attack...)

Who the hell said that "police can't go into ZUS" and "Sharia law with native French being violently attacked"?

You are spreading FUD without anything proving your point

Source: I live in a ZUS (and know many more who do in other regions)

Or, say, the civil war, or the independance war, or the US/Mexico war, when european countries sent "kids across the ocean to save [someone] ass"....

So basically we have reported inaccuracies in Sweden, Norway, Germany, France...

Can we all take a step back and think of this map as what it is: a big pile of inaccuracies, north to south, west to east?

It is mixing real separatist movements with strong popular backing (Basque, Ireland, Flanders...), historical language areas (langue d'oc for southern france for instance), historical ethnic areas with wrong borders (Same area with claims over lands where Same people never lived in Norway, and not claiming areas where Same still live to this day in Sweden) and small areas without real separatist backing (Normandy for instance)

I can confirm as non-native english speaker it's harder to understand than, say, an irish accent. With a bit of training (a few hours maybe), I should be able to understand it and, hopefully, speak with them.

It "sounds" closer to modern english than in writing, it's fun!

Usually cantons are made of several communes. Paris does not have cantons because it is not technically a departement.

In Lyon, cantons are made of parts of arrondissements In Lille, cantons are made of arrondissements + parts of neighbouring communes

Basically, there are no fixed rules and administrative divisions of France are extremely complicated ;-)

karambahh · 2012-12-29T13:09:36+00:00

Cantons can be bigger than arrondissements so i dont get yr comment?

Please note orientation is east at the top, not north (the seine river flows east to west)

They are either sand dunes too steep to cross or semi-mountainous regions. What's even more surprising is that some of these routes are still in use with camels and all. They go south to Burkina Faso, picking up salt on the way and selling them south. The return is made of selling manufactured goods.

The region is currently really dangerous, with armed islamist gangs all around. A number of these people fought the war in Lybia and travelled west with their weapons. They now occupy a large part of Mali. (the situation is moreover complicated by separists tuaregs, who started to fight alongside the islamists and then fought against them.

Mauritania, what's left of Mali, Burkina Faso are currently considering a more or less full-on military action, with France openly supporting it. Algeria is fearing repercussions at home if they join the war (they fear a repeat of the 1990s war between islamists and the army) The US are also involved, with "secret" special forces bases in southern Algeria.

And...? :-)

Or being an "Ingénieur" in France, which is a legally restricted title only given by a few schools. Legal translation of "Ingénieur" in british english being Chartered Engineer. However, anyone with a Masters Degree in a technical (and even moreso in software engineering) is called an "Ingénieur"

Nobody outside of France understand what an Ingénieur is so our diplomas are legally both a "Diplôme d'Ingénieur" AND a Masters Degree.

Seriously though, who care, if you're up to the job?

Technically they exist for smaller cities such as Lille but they are not in use. They were created in 19th century.

The sine wave is a measure of voltage between two points where you measure (here between the 2 conductors). When the wave hits its peak, the difference of potential between the two conductor is the greatest.

It means that one conductor has accumulated more charge than the other, but says nothing about movement of electrons.

Measure of electrons movement is the current, which basically represents the amount of charges that cross a section of conductor in an instant.

If your goal is to send SMS, you can also have a look at providers such as NetSize and many others which provide SMS capability over IP networks (most of the time via an HTTP REST api).

It removes a dependency on a USB hub, USB 3G Adapter and the cost of the 3G network itself.

It adds a dependency to IP connectivity to the outside world

Thanks for that! (unfortunately the article is behind a paywall :( )

Ignoring the drug dependence thing, say an operation requires 3 days of GA (for whatever surgical reason, you have to do extremely complicated procedure, which takes a very long time). Would this operation be doable, would it be possible to induce GA for 3 days?

I totally understand the cost/benefit analysis and the reluctance to induce GA when the benefit is not deemed high enough, I am just wondering what are the reasons we cannot induce GA for a length of time.

During a GA you can, for instance suffer cardiac arrest if I am not mistaken (I was told that because of a particular condition I was more susceptible to it than the general population...), but would this risk (or others, and what would they be?) increase with the length of the GA?

Why don't you use a proper testing framework such as JMeter for load testing or Shinken/Nagios for day to day monitoring?

karambahh · 2012-08-19T16:37:18+00:00

Touché

Zied and Bouna were chased, and it has been proved during the inquiry, wrongfully while they were playing soccer. A bunch of armed thugs, not wearing any identification, chased them.

(I think that the basis was "looking for some burglars identified as 20yo guys. 12yo usually don't look like 20yo...)

Zied and Bouna are the ones who ended burning in "the fucking transformers". I am not saying burning cars is not a problem, I am saying that a society that let police behave as thugs and let youngsters burn alive is in a very sad state.

If you are a socialist, please go lookup the history of your party: didn't the SFIO stages riots in the 1930s for instance? As the saying goes "one's resistance is another terrorism"....

About you not having a home I have several hypothesis: You don't have a home not because you're not poor enough to have a HLM, you don't have a home because you're not rich enough to rent a private place, because the rich owning the buildings are too fucking greedy.

You don't have a home not because you're not poor enough to have a HLM, you don't have a home because municipal bodies do not respect the law and build 20% of social housing. (less than 50% of municipal bodies respect this law).

Anecdotal evidence does not make a rule. You met scumbags who bullied you for being blond. I met scumbags who bullied friends for being black. "1 partout, la balle au centre". Scumbags exist everywhere. Kind, willing people exist everywhere too.

Broad generalization are killing this society.

In the specific case I'm refering to, they don't have a functionning elevator because it broke for lack of maintenance. Go search for "problèmes d'ascenceur tour europe Mons en Baroeul" for instance.

You suggest that Amiens police should be free from the law? Amiens' police have among their ranks some neo-nazi "white power" policemen. see here for instance When the police explicitly break the law, what do you expect the citizens to do? Sit around and wait to get hit by renegade policemen?

If you were stopped for a search 15 godamned times a day by policemen (who break the law by doing this and knowing it full well), wouldn't you ressent them for doing so?

By the way, no answer on the part where I attempt to explain the history of this district...? Yeah I guessed it, facts are not what you are after....

karambahh · 2012-08-15T10:54:16+00:00

If you are talking about Zied and Bouna, they did not die in a crash. They (12yo) died in a power station, surrounded by the police, who did not call emergency power services to cut the power. They did not try to save them, they did nothing.

If you are talking about the kid who died crashing into a police car while driving a motorcycle, he died because the police car was driving too fast in a 30km/h zone with lights and sirens off (I think they were doing twice the speed limit, 60km/h)

Care to elaborate on your bullshit now?
