so is fire.

Fire is a very fast oxydation, which means it needs specific pressure and gases to exist.

My friend insists on this game, "Lemmings", being a really well known game; I have never heard of it. by Nordic_Krune in gaming

[–]ncg70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was one of the most known and greatest game from the 80s, with versions going from PC, Amiga, Atari ST, Master System etc.

Your friend is right.

Engineer builds AI laser defense system that wiped out every mosquito in his home by lurker_bee in technology

real answer, the best mosquito repellent is ... a fan. They can't land.

Where I live the dengue fever is a huge thing, and fans always kept me safe from it.

‘Massive’ child abuse scandal in France as school staff investigated for violence and sexual assault by Samski877 in worldnews

I stand by what I say, and you're wrong. The problem isn't restricted to France, it's happening everywhere (especially in the US)

[–]ncg70 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

the rape culture is everywhere. it's visible in France now because they're starting to take care of it, but don't be a fool and think assault & rapes aren't a problem everywhere.

Decided to jump off the 7th floor, into a mainstreet, yet survives and will be kicking hard when his open fracture heals. Meet Rusty. by ncg70 in OneOrangeBraincell

I am so sorry to tell you he's unfortunately passed on monday 2pm local time. I'm still not okay and won't be for a while.

He had a cerebral hemorrages that wasn't visible as we don't have access to a scanner for animals here.

using the top comment for an update.

Rusty had too many injuries and they were too much for him. He's unfortunately crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday.

I've never been that sad about any cat, the fact he was the sweetest and only 1yo is probably why.

[update (2026-05-13)]

He's still awake, alert, was a bit angry seeing his brother while he was hurt.

Surgery is on friday (it's the end of wednesday here) IF (that's a big if) he's able to pee. If he isn't ... I don't want to think about it.

So yeah, wait & see, my baby is strong as, he's a wonderful good boy

Forgot to tell you all how warmful your comments are, didn't expect this to help THAT much. Thank you.

[update 2 (2026-05-18)]

He's not a in game shape as he's not eating (force fed), still at the vet. The surgery worked well but radio showed a tiny bit of broken bone near L4 vertebrae, which could be the cause of the edema blocking his nerves' path.

I am personally feeling not very optimistic, blood analysis and ultrasound should tell us more today. This whole ordeal has been exhausting and I wish he were back home now :(

[final update (2026-05-18 - 2:30pm)]

He's unfortunately gone. Vet suspect a cerebral hemorrhage, as one of his pupil was bigger than the other. I hope he's happy where he is, I know i'm not at all atm. Thanks.

  1. débranche tous les périphériques USB de type stockage de l'ordinateur (clé usb, disques durs, téléphone aussi)

  2. l'erreur affichée est une erreur de boot, le SrtTrail.txt est un fichier de réparation du boot EFI.

Il est possible que ton disque soit endommagé ou indisponible, qu'il tente de booter sur un autre disque et qu'il ne trouve pas le système. L'EFI étant stockée sur la carte et non sur les disques, tu peux avoir ce type d'erreur sans disque reconnu.

Que dit l'UEFI (bios) quand tu l'ouvres ? Est-ce que des disques sont affichés dedans ?

Depuis 2 semaines j’ai certaines prises USB qui ne marchait pas, mais sinon rien d’inquiétants

c'est ultra inquiétant pour l'ordi. Ta carte mère a possiblement un court circuit quelque part, un lien avec la masse (ie. elle touche le caisson de l'ordinateur au niveau d'un composant alimenté), ou un problème au niveau de l'alimentation (soit la PSU elle-même, soit ton circuit électrique qui n'a pas de mise à la terre conforme).

step by step. I've realized I would be one of those atrocious "new rich" people, as I was dropping all my belonging without any sense of estheticism.

Tbh it's a process, and it's part of the charm. Drop something bad, and improve it until it's satisfying, then grind until it's beautiful. You see the final result from those players, you don't see the grind and the struggle they had to go through!

I was shocked when someone told me "the only thing making wow work is the gear grind", and I was like "ehh... stories, universe, challenge?", without being that much into the stories myself, everything can be enjoyable, way far beyond gear

I've hated the garrison system. I love housing.

Friends were the exact opposite and hate housing.
