President =/= Prime minister in France

The president is elected during the presidential elections, he then appoints (a nomination) his prime minister, who will be the head of the government, and in turn nominates his ministers.

It is common (but not the law) to appoint a prime minister that is from the party that has the parliament majority (through parliament elections that happen after the presidential elections)… Or whenever the president dissolves the parliament prompting new parliament elections. This is what happened here after the results of the European elections).

If the parliament disagrees with the nominated prime minister, they can hold a “No confidence vote” which forces the nomination of a new prime minister if it passes. So it’s not easy to be prime minister because you have to be “accepted” by the parliament. iirc last year the left tried 3 times to vote a no confidence in the previous prime minister, and was very close to succeed every time.

Usually the president is in charge of international affairs, and the prime minister of the national affairs, but we french have a hard on for king-like figures of state, so the president is kind of seen as the most important person in the government. The prime minister is mostly just his lap dog, a yes man that follows his orders 🥲

Agreed, half an hour out of one’s day on a Sunday isn’t much to at least get involved however small it is

I would argue voting is one of the lowest forms of participation in the political life of one’s country, but that’s not a debate I’m ready to have at this hour

Yeah haha it’s really weird and I tend to switch between the “normal” way and the “french” way without noticing. Basically in french the rule is that if your symbol is “tall” ( ! , ? , brackets, semicolon, I think dashes as well…) it needs to be preceded by a space

I’m curious about your agile theory now !

I remember making fun of it in some discord, imagine spending so much r&d into some RGB gadget instead of contributing to research during COVID, the only certificates they had were for electrical products, none for health stuff

If Microsoft gifts me a mobo that supports their new tmp2 or whatever then I’ll switch, until then I’m sadly stuck on w10, oh the misery 🙃

I tried Saber (https://f-droid.org/packages/com.adilhanney.saber/) for a while with my fat fingers and it worked good enough for my use case, idk if it fits your needs

The firm asked over 4,000 people, from baby boomers to Gen Zers, about the categories they intend to splurge on this year. Groceries ranked highest for millennials and Gen Zers, outpacing restaurants, bars, travel, beauty and personal care, apparel, and fitness.

Yeah I mean, we can’t afford any of those listed, we just have enough to EAT, crazy right? And it’s not even that we spend more on those, it’s just that everything has become so expensive

The typical American household would need to spend $445 more a month to purchase the same goods and services as a year ago

Grindavik will never have a break will it

Wake me up when ai is able to discern context, and do more than just spew out words that go well after another 😴

How does tumblr keep jumping into bad decisions don’t they know their audience lmao

I don’t think so, generative expand does not mean “make parts of the image bigger”, all it does is create content around a selection, the link you provided explains it :

Sometimes the canvas you’re working with just isn’t the right size — you need space to add text or want to transform a landscape into a portrait. With the Crop tool and Generative Expand, powered by Adobe Firefly, you can seamlessly resize your image to fit any need.

Magically add more background. Once you’ve gotten the crop just right, click Generate to immediately fill the empty space with newly generated high-quality content that naturally blends with the existing image. Go from a few leaves to a whole jungle in just a few taps.

You’re onto something
