using public transport helps. At least I get to relax, play a game, knit, etc.

This is true, but only if it’s not crowded and you get to sit down. The same commute time feels completely different during rush hour and off-peak.

She was getting hundreds of notifications per day from Youtube of AI generated videos of Pope Leo doing bad stuff or something…

What the fuck.

At home, I always heat the water in a saucepan on my stove. I only use a microwave when I’m making tea at the university, where it’s the only way I can get hot water. These microwaves are always a bit dirty because most students don’t clean after themselves, and I can’t fully enjoy my tea because it feels tainted.

As a musician, I love the fact that there’s a “♪” key, even though I would probably never use it.

There are several Azerty layouts. Some don’t allow you to type uppercase accented letters easily, some do. I’ve switched to Linux about fifteen years ago and never had an issue typing these characters with the default layout. It used to be more complicated on Windows, I don’t know if that’s still the case. I should give it a try the next time I get the occasion to type on a Windows computer.

I currently use the fr-oss Azerty layout, which is probably not perfect but has many advantages. I love being able to type thin spaces and non breaking spaces easily. The diagram doesn’t explain it, but combining the é/2 key with the Capslock key will give you an É — whereas combining it with the Maj key will give you a 2. That’s the mechanism Gueoris is alluding to here.

I still don’t get why it’s easier to type a semi-colon than a full stop, though. I love semi-colons, but even I don’t use them that much.

I visited Norway once as a child and saw the biggest pizza of my life in a restaurant in Oslo. I didn’t get to eat one, though, I was only allowed to order the “small” pizza, which was the size of what I’d call a normal pizza, that is to say, quite big.

I didn’t eat so much pizza in the end, mostly hot dogs, so many hot dogs, like, almost every day? I don’t know if hot dog is that popular in Norway or if all this just happened to me for some mysterious reason.

Same thing in French. Doublevédoublevédoublevé. So. long.

I’ve never really had that problem, because I almost always carry a large-ish backpack with a cotton bag folded inside, but it would be neat if stores had a box near the checkout where you could leave your extra bags for other clients to use for free.

One of the libraries I go to does something like that, they keep some bags near the front desk and give them to users who need something to carry their books. I’ve given them two bags I had no use for. And I know a bulk food store where you can leave empty containers for other clients to use.

I wish you pleasant sexual encounters as well, most esteemed stranger.

Except in her case, it’s been proved that she’s been embezzling. Your argument makes no sense, you’re comparing two completely different situations.

Paris its an immigration nightmare with a lot of social and criminal problems

No, it is not.
