That could be because to say ChatGPT in French sounds like "Chat I farted" (Chat j'ai pété)

I agree that amazon.ie is useless, but i think that Irish shoppers will still buy from Amazon UK for more expensive items, where the €3 fee is relatively insignificant. Amazon UK, even with the new €3 import fee, is still cheaper than local

I've been using their DNS (migrating away from Cloudflare) for over a year and I've found it solid. Good latency and fast propagation. Custom nameservers are easy to setup. Migrating from CF is easy too - just export your zonefile

I had to use tailscale to bust through port forwarding on chained routers because, even with ports configured correctly, wireguard wasn't able to get through. My use case was for remote access into a home-hosted Nextcloud instance, via

When I lived in NL, it was explained to me that closing the curtains would imply, in some sort of weird Calvinistic belief, that the occupants were engaged in some nefarious activities; therefore the curtains are left open to show that the

These Cloudflare WAF rules (not my creation) should help mitigate some of the threat by blocking TOR traffic, blocking bots and blocking datacenter IPs (eg bots running on a VPS). The rules are granular so you can tweak them when you start

Might be worth adding that Bunny offers DNS services as well. I've started switching a few sites from Cloudflare to Bunny and the experience has been great so far. Bunny offers custom name servers as well, so if you can setup glue reco

Apparently the tradition continues. On our Peugeot 407, the button to open the boot (trunk) is in the "0" on the "407" badge.

SFR will switch you from cgnat to ipv4 if you contact customer support and explain that you work from home and need to open specific ports to access your work servers or VPN. I did just this a month ago. Takes less than 24 hours and you sho

Gobshite, while it might appear to be "mouth shitter", isn't used to describe a braggard bullshitter or liar, as the components might suggest. It's more commonly used to describe a person who's both stupidly incompe

Lane assistance is fine, if it can be permanently disabled. But I've rented cars where it seemed to have been hard coded to default = ON for each trip. Every time I started the car, I had to go into the car config (great fun on a renta

As an atheist, I would say that the opinions of these organisations do matter, insofar as they are likely to influence political opinion in the countries where they have significant followers.

First, nobody owns a domain; it is assigned to a registrant, by the registry, via the registrar. No domain "owner" has ownership rights; you have the right to use the domain subject to the rules of the registry. If the rules of th

Another happy user of Purelymail here. The GUI is unpolished, but deliverability and reliability have been excellent for me in the few years that I've used it. Unlimited custom domains and inexpensive. It's not suitable for bulk s

I like them as a company, but I wouldn't use them as a registrar if there was a significant risk of UDRP. Domains are not their core business and customer service is close to non-existent if you're not at least a pro-level custome

Most enterprise class registrars (registry =/= registrar) are brand protection and brand monitoring services. Quite expensive for individuals and probably not in the price range of OP, according to the description of his circumstances.

Domain investor here. Some, but not all of the advice here is absolutely dreadful and is an example of why you should not take advice from random strangers on the internet. Some basic rules if you wish to keep the domain: * Don't offer

The government will put you in jail if you don't pay it. Not quite like a Netflix subscription, then.

Worth adding that it's a compulsory charge for every German household, regardless of whether they watch or listen to the programming, or own a TV. Non-payment leads to collection agency, and ultimately jail.

At highway speed here in France, (110-130 km/hr), the wind noise is sufficient to cause tinnitus for me, if I'm not wearing ear protection under my helmet. The bike style is a factor - my touring bike has a movable windshield that

For non-francophones, GPT sounds like "J'ai pété" (I farted). Now that I think about it, the term seems quite appropriate given the occasional brain farts produced by ChatGPT.

I follow the news in France, but the reason people were scrambling to fill their cars had nothing to do with an energy crisis. The first wave of "people scrambling to fill their cars" was caused by union strikes at French refineri

One way of looking at the "destruction" of the value of the property is based on Net Present Value of future rent payments. Let's take one hypothetical building, its owner and its tenant. The market value of this building (no
