It was defined as
one ten-millionth of the shortest distance from the North Pole to the equator passing through Paris.
The stick of metal in Paris is just so people don’t have to do measure the distance between the north pole and the equator each time they want to check their measuring tool.
It’s not just for my home server but for EOL or other issues I used bitwarden emergency access options for passwords. Of anything happens to me my wife can request access to my vault and if I don’t deny it in a certain timeframe she will have full access to it.
I did that after my brother in law got in an accident and fell into a coma. I’m very grateful he had all his password saved in chrome on his unlocked laptop because if not it would have made the period insanely more difficult for my sister.
Simple things like paying the bills would I been insanely more difficult and stressful and you don’t need extra stress in this period.
For people who want to try it there is a free instance managed by the team there : https://cryptpad.fr/
I was in the same boat two years ago.
What I did is that I’ve setup a VM with NixOS in it to play with, learn the language and tweak the configuration file.
The great thing about NixOS is that once I was feeling confident enough to switch I installed NixOS on bare metal, loaded the configuration file I prepared in the VM and I instantly had everything installed and running. (Except for the NVidia drivers, fuck nvidia)
Since then I’ve stayed in nixos and I’m not looking back.
An unusual hat works as well. I frequently have people asking questions on my hat.
Same, just black for me. No distraction.
There is the kiwix hotspot.
A WiFi hotspot that gives you access to the entire Wikipedia, medical information, homesteading books …
Same provider but I’m paying 6€/months for unlimited calls, text and 40Go of 4G data.
The worst is that it will probably increase profit or a quarter or too while running the brand to the ground.
On the other hand the rubber is cheaper to replace than the metal lid, so in the long run the price balances out.
Jars like Le Parfait can last forever, especially now that they used stainless steel for the mechanism.
Do you have the same issue with watermelon ? Because for me watermelon or honeydew have the same kind of taste as cucumber, not as strong but still enough for me to stay away from it.
I used to absolutely hate cucumber, to the point that I could taste it if someone cut a tomato salad with the same knife they used for the cucumber without washing it in between, the whole tomato salad would be ruined for me.
I could smell instantly when someone started chopping cucumber in the other room.
That’s it, my superpower is to detect traces of cucumber.
There is the list of the manufacturer here: https://lethiers.fr/les-fabricants/
This is probably the best way to reference them
In France there is also “le Thiers”. It’s not a company but more a kind of “guild” of knife makers making knives together following strict specifications.
All the knives and components are made in France.
I love being married, I met my wife 10 years ago and we got married 3 years later.
The wedding was just with our close family and homemade food, nothing expensive.
One big aspect of being married is that our relationship is not a question anymore. By being married we are committed to each other, it means we can make decisions accordingly.
For example I love the house we have, but without being married I don’t think we would have bought it. The house is a lot of work, will take years of renovation and is perfect for our family currently but would not be as good for either of us separately.
So if we were in the mindset that we could split up at any time we would have never bought this house.
I find marriage is actually freeing.
I’m obviously not a fan of Tesla but it’s a shame that the most sold car went from an electric to a gas powered one.
If you don’t find in Europe but still want to avoid the US and China there is Brymen (Taiwan) that makes great multimeters for a decent price.
I agree with Nixos as well. Setting it up properly for the first time can take some time but after that it’s very much “forget it”.
I think Nixos and a nas would for your need.
This is what I’m doing, I have two laptop, one for work at my office and one at home for work/hobbies.
I have a nixos config synced on github with all my of is configuration, package list extensions …Some of the config is specific to each laptop like the part related to the hardware and steam, games stuff only on my home computer. The rest is the config is shared and all my files synced on my NAS.
So whenever I change something on one the change is reflected in the other. I really enjoy this setup and I’m thinking of adding my server in it too.
