A fella hooked on Internet and tech for some decades now. I’m running on a strict diet composed of coffee, chocolate biscuits and socially fueled anxiety.

I love anything that is also science fiction from Star Trek and Stargate to Cyberpunk 2077, THE FINALS and ARC Raiders.

  • Indeed, it’s huge and this is why were going towards a Cyberpunk 2077 and Weyland-Yutani future. At least as long money and power runs.

    I would really prefer a Star Trek one but I think our dear Gene was quite optimistic in the fact human nature would change after an age of endless wars (I know Star Trek needed a world war 3 for the age of peace, science and exploration to exist but let’s hope we won’t nuke ourselves for that to happen).



  • I went with Trade Rep and they are serious. Their app still needs few things but otherwise well made.

    For ETF, pick only Europeans Providers, here is a list:

    • AXA (France)
    • Amundi (France)
    • BNP Paribas (France)
    • HANetf (Netherlands)
    • HSBC (UK)
    • Legal & General (UK)
    • Ossiam (France)
    • Robeco (Netherlands)
    • Tabula Investment Management (UK)
    • UBS (Swiss)
    • Xtrackers (Germany)

    Feel free to expand if there is more you know, I listed my ETF providers


  • I think everyone is pissed of Orban being a whiny b**** but no one wants to move strongly. EU seems to respect a step by step process for reasons. If we had room, let’s just break into Hungary and take out Orban out of his seat, bring some lubricant, he’s stuck in it. Then let’s roll for new elections and call it a day.

    But that would mean nations of the EU are letting UE take a part of their sovereignty.



  • We cannot kick them but could EU not create a special status for countries that deviate from the norm and democracy?

    • Veto? Gone
    • Money? On hold
    • Schengen? Closed
    • SEPA? Oopsie, doopsie it is in maintenance but just for you
    • Etc…

    I’m all to keep countries free to vote and make a choice if your candidate is just pro-russian, corrupted, a felon in an election it is now put on hold and you need to change your way fast otherwise it is not gonna end well for you.

    Edit: Wording and clarification







  • Hormis un effort Européen global et quand je dis ça, je parle d’une vraie volonté de monter un plan cohérent avec des actions, de la recherche, du personnel dédié et du budget. Il faudrait aussi embarquer les pays dedans au moins 30-40% de l’UE. La France, l’Allemagne et les pays Nordiques au moins, ce sont les plus touchés par les fournisseurs Cloud aux US. Les Danois tentent d’en sortir.

    Aucun fournisseur de Cloud Européen n’a actuellement la taille requise pour supporter la charge et si sa arrivait les GAFAM ferait sûrement tout pour contrecarrer les efforts mis en place. Ils perdraient trop et nous on a pas l’argent.

    Hetzner, trop méconnu mais fiable. OVH connu mais a pas mal de lacunes internes. Scaleway est peut-etre celui qui presente le mieux chez nous en France. Corrigez moi si je me trompe. Le reste du marché reste parcellaire, ils fournissent des besoins locaux. Il y a pourtant le tissu de base et l’expertise.



  • Alors il y a plusieurs définitions mais à l’origine le nom vient du status donné aux personnes ayant à charge l’encadrement. Donc un cadre.

    Aujourd’hui c’est un status donné à une personne ayant accompli une formation professionnelle ou un enseignement de niveau supérieur ou qui possède une expertise reconnue équivalente dans un domaine administratif, technique ou scientifique.

    Exemple, un ingénieur. Même sans responsabilités hiérarchique, les ingénieurs sont souvent cadres. Car la fonction qu’ils ont nécessite des compétences intellectuelles à responsabilité élevée.

    Pour les avantages, un cadre peut parfois être au forfait jour plutôt qu’au forfait heure. Il ne compte donc pas ses heures et sa performance est évaluée par le travail accompli. Tu peux faire 2 heures dans ta journée, si ton travail est fait techniquement tu peux partir si plus rien n’est possible.

    Il a aussi un meilleur salaire, c’est un status reconnu pour un avancement de carrière et tu as aussi parfois des avantages en nature comme une voiture de fonction ou un meilleur plan de prévoyance.

    Pour les désavantages, sa passe par des charges sociales plus élevées, le fait de ne pas pouvoir compter ses heures ou de devoir assurer plus de responsabilités.

    Yeah, it frightens me too. I hope Embark will work on some mechanic to avoid being a literal “cowboy on maps”. I already had a glimpse of this during play test.

    Since most weapons are generating noise, shooting could raise your threat level and machines would investigate. So it is better to lay low during a run or if you aim for the Big League (i.e: a bison, big robot on 3 or 4 legs, 3 meters tall or Rocketeer, a flying death machine with…rockets), make it swift. In and out quick to get your reward and avoid getting it stolen.

    You also have limited resources, bullets, bandages are not common so fighting is consuming even with melee. Players also had to plan their skirmishes to avoid machines or engage a full team of 3 if they were solo. So it plays heavily on scouting and recon.

    Personally, I am a defensive player with a strong scavenger side and preference for stealth. I won’t engage fights first but if I stumble on dead raiders, I call it a day, avoid area and go elsewhere.

    Communication wheel is also a good mechanic. Embark did good by adding a “Don’t shoot, I’m friend” button and “Let’s share our findings”. Sure it is a double edged sword, you can lie and backstab people but in the end, our “Human side should prevail”. Meaning higher stakes for those being sociopaths.

    I had short skirmishes being solved with vocal too. It helps a lot. Once in a bunker, players noticed us and started to shoot. We ended fight without causalities with voice after they mistook us for a killing party they had met earlier. We both teamed up, 6 players was awesome.
