TLDR: standing all day long can be worse than sitting, but alternating standing and sitting positions is very good for your health.

Standing desks have never been promoting standing all day imo, the title is pure clickbait. Standing desks are good for your health, just use them correctly.

I’d say as many as in other countries

Not for screwing/unscrewing but in France we have a satire mnemonic for remembering right and left:

The right hand is the one with the thumb pointing left.

Works only if you look at the back of your hands, and obviously not useful. We use it mainly to mock someone who mix right and left

Good read, I think the practical example of enshittification makes it easier to understand.

“pédé” is a bad word for homosexual males in french (I think it translates to faggot), so I got this really wrong at first

They are cut in little cubes, along with bacon, duck breast and a fried egg. It is indeed unique and delicious

On of my local pizzerias has one with apple and it’s actually one of my favorite!

But my number one is the “indian”, which is basically chicken, curry, pineapple and raisin

Let’s go. In and out. Eight day adventure.

Not everybody, usually RTTs depend on how much overtime is planned in your contract (eg. most engineers work 37.5h instead of 35h, so they get 1 RTT each 3 weeks). Many people don’t have any RTT

Nope, France is 5 minimum, each company can add as much as they want but the law is 5 minimum.

I agree on all the good work of previous generations to earn us these though.

I’d say more than 10 years now. Computers evolved a lot more between the 90s and the 00s than between the 00s and now, my old laptop is 10 years old and it’s still perfectly running linux, and I hope it will keep running for years.

The problem is more hardware obsolescence, it’s a Acer so every part of it is slowly falling apart (keyboard, screen, battery) and OEM parts are impossible to find after all those years. I guess this problem is less important for desktop.

So you have five different apps to browse Lemmy?

I do run Piped locally for my family’s use, it seems that it works better than public instances but I haven’t really measured to what extent (except for ping, which is obviously excellent at 4ms).

I would say that the problem with self-hosting for private use is limited privacy, as the benefits of grouping multiple users behind the same proxy are lost. I try to mitigate this by routing all piped traffic through a VPN though.
