  • That’s a good start. However, it could be less based on tinder. Tinder doesn’t promote good relationship amd give us a false idea on relationship. :(

    Apparence isn’t everything. Why not also searching some friends ? Suggest some events with Mobilizon app ?

    And the kind of relationship we are looking for, night stand, friend with benefit, short, long…but it will work if everyone are honnest about themselve. :)

    And if there is no more than 3 peoples…let’s say you have to be very lucky ^^









  • I’m profound deaf. I sign, write and speak. :)

    Well, sign language aren’t superior. Having both : subtitles (hard hearing people) and sign language (deaf people) is better. I prefer subtitle because it is closer to the speech and i’m not fond of sign video. Often the sign interpreter is small and sign very quickly.

    In general, i prefer text, it help me focusing on the content instead of the person and use less bandwidth…

    Sign language still lacks lot vocabulary. It’s a young language «created» in the 18s when Abée de l’Épée founded the first deaf school. And i had to create lot technical signs with sign language interpreters during my agricultural course. Furthermore, they don’t have an official sign writing yet, and it is a problem for keeping human knowledge and culture outside video and technological device. So there is still lot things to do and improve.

    In France, lot deaf people aren’t fluent with French writing due to the lack of bilingual school (French writing and French sign language) and interpreters (eg : only 200 hours in sign language for 1 year in universities).

    So, having sign language improves a lot the accessibility for deaf people as they are not fluent with writing language. For me, i prefer both. Both are good and it meet each people need. :)



  • Unpopular opinion :

    • Arch, i installed it long ago so i can’t remember anything except that i spent lot hours for its installation.
    • Reason : spend a lot time reading the wiki without an easy installer…even Ubuntu was better but i wanted a challenge and a better uderstanding on linux.
    • Some AUR package didn’t work.
    • Why Arch ? To get the lastest os and package as i had a recent gaming laptop.

    So I changed and prefered manjaro with its ui for linux os, graphic card…but some thing were broken…than i settled Pop-Os for 3 years and distrohopped again for immutable os : Vanilla OS and Fedora Kinoite. :)

    Another distro :

    • Ubuntu
    • reason : snap and various decisions.


  • Well, i got some feedback, most creative people don’t find gimp good, they won’t switch.

    Well dunno if it’s because gimp lacks good tool that ease up their workflow or because we teached them adobe suite.

    During my art course it was : adobe suite and autocad with 3d max.

    But i knew blender, gimp and scribus way before entering art school because i disagree with adobe’s licensing system and found it very expensive.

    Imho, the current best creative software on linux is Blender. There is also Darktable and Rawtepee for light, contrast.

    For inkscape, krita, i can’t compare, i never used adobe illustrator, nor corel drawer.

    Scribus is good, almost perfect but it lacks a very important feature that i can’t replicate. Adobe Indesign is far more easier because of the guideline that tell ya this item is correctly aligned and has the same size.

    Kdenlive, well featured but i find adding video effect easier on adobe premiere pro. And kdenlive had a lot stability issue, i lost my work several time and that’s how i learned to setup automated save.

    Autocad easily outmatched freecad, there were a huge difference in functionnalities. I don’t know if it has changed since 10 years. It probably improved a lot.

    I apologize for my english grammar.


  • Yeah you are right…

    Well i admit, first, i didn’t care about speed. But maybe for high quality, and smooth transfert, i should have chose the hightest.

    Hopefully i didn’t because the fiio device only accept unidirectional usb-c. It don’t accept bidirectionnal cable. There was an arrow. I thought biderectionnal cable should do the job…😅

    Well i didn’t expect ton of features. I just wanted a simple cable to transfer data. According to the cable notice, it should. But fiio sold a device with an proprietary usbc cable that can only transfert data in one direction. And no usbc-usbc can connect to it, i have to buy a fiio’s cable as apple’s lightening.

    Then i dig and discovered this whole usb-c mess. It breaks intoperability. That’s why i was mad. It’s inefficient and wasteful…and no vendors were able to help me when i asked which cable can work with it.

    They don’t know cable as you do, and i guess i have to take lesson on cable myself as i can’t trust manufacturer nor vendors that are as knowledgeable as me. I should have gone to the hacker fab lab first.


  • For me, i manage a minetest server and it was very diffucult, there were polish, turkish…lot players were young and couldn’t speak any english word. And it was crazily difficult because i wanted to help them, then explain why i decided and it was a very difficult experience to maintain a good multilingual community with young people along my server own rule.

    Very hard :( I hope i will succed one day.
