Looking directly through? Or taking photos through?

With photos you can have a longer exposure and see things too faint for the naked eye, not just too small. I'd guess that's what's happening here. You could very probably blow this smart cam out of the water with pictures taken through your telescope. Especially if you can have it track whatever you're shooting to allow very long exposures

"Ce scénario n'est pas théorique, il a déjà eu lieu. En octobre 2025, la Fédération française de tir se fait voler les données de près d'un million de licenciés et d'anciens licenciés : état civil, adresse postale, téléphone, numéro de licence.

Les mois suivants, des individus se présentent au domicile de licenciés en se faisant passer pour des policiers ou des gendarmes, parfois en tenue, pour se faire remettre des armes. Des vols sont constatés à Nice, à Paris, à Limoges, à Décines."

Sounds like a far fetched movie!

Wow, indeed rare that hacks result in real-life visits, and here even specifically to pretend-confiscate weapons. That's a well-plannee (or excellently opportunist) coup.

No, both are separate universities, although some universities also have satelite campuses (UDeM (montreal) has multiple).

Edit0: Although UQ is a group of 10 universities that are public, they are not a single entity.

That sounds like the UC or SUNY systems. UCSB, UCLA, etc are all separate institutions with separate missions, but it’s totally normal to say “UC Berkeley” or “UC Santa Cruz.”

No no he was copy pasting! In the Arret sur image article you can read a whole sentences plagiarized where the author just changed "En effet" to "Toutefois" (for example) at the begining of the quote.

FYI, En effet = Indeed. Toutefois = However. I had to translate so I thought I'd share.

The console market is shrinking and video games are becoming synonymous with PC gaming ( and handhelds I guess but Xbox isn't doing handhelds I think)

Xbox has handhelds, but they're made by partners and are more about streaming games. Example: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/handhelds/rog-xbox-ally

Don't give two weeks!

Depending on the size of the market in your area, or the market in general, not giving two weeks is effectively blackballing yourself. The city I work in is small enough I might have trouble in the future after leaving a manager in a lurch or burning a bridge.

Is that how things should be handled? Nopers. Is it how things are due to employers having more power than employees? Yeahpers.

Just being real here though, hiring flaky employees is enormously expensive. Every hiring manager / business owner would just as soon not waste their time on it. So there are these heuristics that have organically developed for how to spot good employees vs bad. Not having the stability, foresight, or courtesy to (be able to) give notice is merely an indicator of whether you have your shit together. Similar example: an HR director once told me early in my career that drug tests (back when those were a thing) are basically just IQ tests - the company doesn’t give a shit if you smoke pot, but if you can’t control yourself enough knowing you have a test coming up or you can’t figure out how to engineer a workaround, you’re probably dumber than the candidates we want.

The system is reasonable in the sense that it’s explainable and predictable on both sides. Social convention seems preferable to me in this context to binding contracts.

If I may, people write (with pens) slower than than can speak, and thus to take good notes you need to synthesize the material you are being explained. You need to understand what you're writing.

Many people can type as fast/faster than they talk, and when typing it is possible to try and type verbatim what is being said. In this case, there is no understanding. (If you've ever taken a class not all that is said is pertinent and not all that is pertinent is said)

I personally don't revisit my written notes their purpose is uniquely for me to remember/understand what I've written.

I highly doubt this is unique. Some teachers (at least when I was in school) said stuff, repeated it, no problem writing it verbatim. Some others put it on the board for you to copy it verbatim, and later in uni.. most people definitely did not type fast enough to capture every word.

Writing down stuff has always been what you make of it.

Just because there arepeople who type slow doesnt invalidate the point that typing has a much higher speed ceiling. It's like saying well cars can go slower than some people who walk. So we may as well walk everywhere.

Except you don't talk full speed like a california girl on speed during a lecture?

Something about it being the banks problem if I owe them a billion
