Hey thanks! Synthpop might be the closest genre - I started checking youtube with keywords you provided, and adding french to it; eg. “french synthpop , french synthwave”. Those started giving results that I percieve to be similar to the two examples.

Maybe its a sound in franchophone world or the language itself that creates the mood. Thank you!

Dont let your friend buy HP, they are filled with cunty bloatware and made of shit parts, especially the screens and their hinges. Only assholes let their friends buy HP.

But do not watch the sequel. It ruins the whole beautiful thing.

Huh. Wonder why its so finicky. Oh well, maybe I’ll give it another go in the future.

Does it work anymore? I’ve been getting the 500 error while trying to use it for a couple of months non stop.

Yes, exactly like that - thanks! I also realize now that apparently I’m blind for not seeing all the text formatting options right there under my nose.

If you feel like getting even more depressed about the state of the world;

Popular Front is a grassroots war/conflict reporting podcast by british journalist Jake Hanrahan, about different ongoing and developing conflicts around the world.

Kinda depressing, but often times far, far ahead of the large media house news cycles. Also offers a little bit of hope, with reports of why and how people on the ground are going against oppression of various kinds.

P.S. anyone know how one could bold comment/post text in the Jerboa app?

This might be obvious to you, but dont buy HP laptops. I’ve twice been tempted by the cheap price, twice I’ve been burned. Cant wait till this current piece of shit croaks and I have an excuse to buy something stable and without endless amount of bloatware.

Good point, I suppose I’m most interested about the folk remedy/history side of these sort of implements. The idea, manufacture and use is so simple, so it seems impossible not to exist in other places and times.
