@ministerofimpediments @lowqualityfacts this is cheating because it's a common carp (Cyprinus carpio), not a goldfish (Carassius auratus).
@arthunter these are most likely Galerina marginata, funeral bells (should have brown spores). https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/154735-Galerina-marginata
@Vinz pizza sure, but burgers? There's a possibility that the presence of a fork and knife indicates that the place is a proper restaurant, in which case certain expectations exist that do not exist in fast-food places - which are not considered "restaurants". For example, drinking from a bottle in a restaurant is bad manners but Americans do it all the time. I find that eating a burger with knife and fork is a matter of convenience. I tend to do this in restaurants that provide silverware because their burgers are usually too large. I suppose Americans try harder to eat them with their bare hands, but it seems like more effort for them. I'm not sure about real restaurants that serve burgers in France because I haven't had much experience with those (I'm French but live in California). Also note that traditional French table manners forbid eating anything with hands except for bread, meat with bones, and certain raw or dry things that are more like appetizers or desserts. Burgers are widely understood to be a foreign thing that is super weird to serve on a plate like all sandwiches, so French people would generally not know what to do with it and improvise. Fast-food chain burgers are always eaten with hands with no hesitation.
@Vinz then there are weirdoes (certain families in the bourgeoisie) who would eat a banana with knife and fork. There may also be folks who are eating a burger for the first and last time in their life and possibly never eat a sandwich because that's how they were raised or something.

@freemo I can assure from my 25 years of living in Paris that hearing a french dude yell "Bouge ta caisse de merde, connard" to the car in front of him is far from being sexy.
@SPF learning about the horrors of the past is important therefore it's fun, what's the problem?
@danluu I wish they offered options to hide (1) all paywalled content and (2) all content with ads. Or at least prominently display warnings for these things.

@freemo happy birthday!

@gregeganSF I ran into a local who was in the same situation the other day. I reported the problem to Google Maps but I guess they don't fix these things in a timely manner.
@dpiponi 🤔 there's also the question of interbreeding, the whole thing turning into a caste system.
@dpiponi I have questions.
1. What if an N-robot makes a copy ("fork()") of itself? Is the result an N-robot or an (N+1)-robot?
2. Since they're identical at the time of cloning, are they both liable for the same crimes they may have committed before cloning?
@ottawasteph it looks bad to me from the trailers. Maybe it's because I'm French and aging. The music is ridiculous. The shooting at the pyramid we see in one of the trailers is just dumb. It makes me not expect anything interesting from the movie... but well, it's probably best to take it as it is and not fight it. It's only a movie.
