Vos ressources en ligne (ou pas) pour apprendre avec les enfants

Je suis assez jeune pour avoir pu profiter de ressources numériques pour étudier quand j'étais enfant mais la plupart des celles que j'utilisais n'existent plus.

Quelles sont les ressources en ligne que peuvent utiliser les parents d'aujourd'hui ? Que ce soit comprendre comment l'enfant apprend et se développe ou pour permettre aux enfants d'apprendre en s'amusant.

Je sais que C'est pas sorcier est disponible en ligne mais je pense qu'il y a moins vieux quelque part

[Linux Mint] - How good are preinstalled softwares?

Hello.

I just switch to Linux mint from Windows. And I found that there is some software that are preinstalled that does the same that what I would have installed myself.

For example, I use qbittorent and there is something called "Transmission" that does torrenting.
I use VLC for video playing and there is something called "Celluloid".

Are the software preinstalled on Mint generally good at what they are doing and beginner friendly? Should I check for Linux version of the software I use on Windows or rather experiment with what is here?

Thank you for your help.

Je veux installer linux sur un vieil ordi

Mon vieil ordinateur portable tourne sous windows 10. Il commence à souffler lorsque je l'allume et avec la fin du support de W10, je voudrais passer sous Linux.
Je suis familière de l'interface d'Ubuntu et j'ai pu essayer d'autres distributions installées par d'autres (Fedora, Puppy Linux, Debian) mais je ne suis pas à l'aise du tout lorsqu'il s'agit de l'installer moi-même ou de le paramétrer.

Je cherche une distribution qui soit légère pour mon petit ordi et facile à installer pour un débutant avec une documentation abondante en français. Que me conseillerez-vous ?

Voilà les spécifications de mon appareil pour plus de contexte.

Is there a way to improve badly cut clothes?

I buy most of my clothes second hand, the quality is much better for the price but when I look for something precise, too replace something wear out for example, rather than a new piece for my wardrobe, it take me a lot of time to find what I look for. Meanwhile, fast fashion brand sells lots of clothing that seems exactly what I need except that the quality is fast fashion quality :(

Is there any general advices you have to improve bad quality clothing?

Here is two specific examples that really disturb my shopping experience:

  • T-shirt that have not T, because the cloth piece under the arm has been removed. The t-shirt looks fine, folded or wear with your arms lying against your body but as soon a you raise them, in a T, or high to reach some high shelf, the whole t-shirt raises with them
  • Long sleeves than a just long enough to keep your arms lying against your body. If you go for a crazy move, like using your hand, you hand up with almost 3/4 sleeves.

What do you think? Is there anything that can be done to improve these type of badly cut clothes? What about all the others? With loose stitches, bad made buttons... You know what fast fashion looks like.

Recherche recette : le bali

J'ai vu dans une boulangerie un gâteau fraise/mangue/passion appelé le bali. Malheureusement, internet est rempli d'adresse de pâtisserie sur l'île et je n'arrive pas à trouver la recette. Est-ce que vous connaissez la recette ?

La boulangère m'a confirmé les parfums mais visuellement, il y avait de haut en bas : un crumble au fraise, une crème mangue/passion, un biscuit ou bien une meringue et une mousse à la fraise sur le dessus 🤤

What fediverse software should I host?

I'm looking into hosting my personal instance of some fediverse software. I want to do it to grow my tech-literacy more than to host my own service. So I want to pick one in the fediverse, because I love the federation concept, but I'm open to a software I don't use yet.

I have made previous attempt at hosting internet services a few years ago, mainly things my teachers told me to do. It was a big failure and I mostly remember from it that I got a hard time understanding instructions given on internet tutorials or at which point what I did was different from what my classmates did :( But I want to try again and do better! 😤

I plan on hosting it on a old laptop I hope not to break completely and maby in a docker container (but I also used to have a hard time with docker)

What fediverse software would you recommend me? Is there one that is easier to install than another? Or one with more clear installation instructions?

Thanks for your advice!

Planting a palm tree - Which soil should I use ? - Quelle terre utilisée pour planter un palmier ?

I am trying to plant palm trees from date pits. I've already done it. It's a very long process that takes about a year to show a recognisable palm. The date pit has to be first immerged in water for at least 15 days and up to 3 weeks. Then in wet cotton for the same time. Finally, we can plant it. The palm should be water only when the soil is fully dry.

I've been using cactus soil last time but they are sold in big quantity and I don't want so much of it. Which kind of soil could replace it, preferably sold in smaller quantity? Are there soil especially made for palm trees?
