I'm sure your boss/manager would proactively increase your wage relatively to the extra work you asked for

Je mords.

En 2022, j'ai du mal à voir quel aspect de Mélenchon est suffisamment repoussant pour lui préférer 5 ans de Macron en tant que socialiste, et je dis ça en ayant une longue liste de griefs à l'encontre de Mélenchon.

Good thing there was almost nothing built specifically for these Olympics. Plenty of concerns and problems, but at least that one isn't on the list.

He didn't divinely guide their hand, but he certainly pushed a certain narrative, painting the left as an even worse alternative.

Correct, no comma before the last element if it is preceded by a conjunction (e.g. "et", that is "and" in English) in French

Speaking English using French vocabulary is a real cheat code

For a group our size (we regularly have over 800 people on our mumble, peak is somewhere around the 1.3k mark if I remember correctly), it would also be very cost prohibitive to use TS

Not that I particularly care to defend the french government, but there was 3 referendums, with voting restrictions in favor of the kanak, as per an agreement between the government and the kanaks. The first 2 went against independence and the kanaks decided to boycott the third (the polling was going against independence, again)

Does that mean all is fine and dandy? Obviously not, but I don't think the story is as one sided as "classic french colonialism"

It's not magic, but it has advantages that are hard to beat in terms of resource usage. Renewables also have advantages, but you can't handwave away their own problems and limitations anymore than you can do so for nuclear energy.

It depends on where. In Paris itself, the metro network is quite a bit denser than the tube, but as soon as you exit the city limit and get into the "petite couronne" municipalities, it quickly drops off in density.

Absolutely, I think a lot of Americans don't realise that when going to France, and end up having a subpart experience because of it. From our perspective, you are the asshole if you don't greet people appropriately, which often means we'll answer in kind.

The basics, bonjour, excusez moi, s'il vous plaît, merci should get you through that. Not assuming people want or can speak English can also be important, so if you can ask them "parlez vous anglais ?" before switching it's not a bad call

There's also obviously some people who are assholes or simply having a bad day, that's a universal thing and France is no exception.

Unless you interacted with 90 year olds, it's unlikely anyone would be mad about thinking you're German these days.

It's entirely possible you encountered assholes, they do exist, though they're generally equally assholes to everyone regardless of country of origin so don't take it personally.

Did you perhaps forget to say bonjour/excusez moi or other necessary greetings? That'll make people look angrily at you regardless of how good your french is

None of these are in the UK? Maybe take a second to check the context of the meme before jumping to conclusions

That sounds fun, I have not tried any of the new talisman stuff

Is Belgium also a surprising exception?

I'll have a look, thanks for the suggestion.

High elves had good magic and sword/bow learning speed, so you'd be able to start as say, a conjurer, and still become a competent melee and range fighter in the mid to late game iirc. Gave you a lot of options in how to approach fights and conserve mana rather than waste it on low danger enemies.

Oh, are they looking to change them?

I did play that a bit back then, though never to the endgame, maybe I'll give it a go again. It is pretty fun once you reach the mines I'll admit

Laisse moi préfacer mon propos pour dire que je ne suis pas particulièrement pour les voitures autonomes dans leur état actuel, ni que je cherche à excuser quoi que ce soit.

Quand je lis ton argument, j'ai tout de même l'impression que tu préfères avoir un conducteur à blâmer, plutôt que de réduire le nombre de morts. Je te renverse la question : combien de morts de plus es tu prêt à accepter pour ne pas avoir de constructeurs de voitures autonomes à tenir responsable plutôt que des conducteurs ? Personnellement, c'est de l'ordre de 0.

En est on à ce point ? Aucune idée, et une réponse pointe correctement vers le manque de transparence et de contrôle des divers statistiques déployées comme arguments par les constructeurs. Un autre point important que tu soulèves, c'est que toutes les populations de conducteurs ne se valent pas, et que l'adoption inégale pourrait créer une surmortalité dans certains cas. Dans tous les cas, je pense que contrairement à ce que tu dis, il est plus important de regarder l'effet statistiques que de s'arrêter à une tragédie particulière plutôt qu'une autre.
