There is a "Système D" DIY magazine here in France, since 1924. I don't know if it is predated by the term or originated it. I remember that there is a big pile of old issues in my grandfather attic.
Can you please not post unsubstantive comments and/or flamebait? We're trying for something different here. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
Incidentally, HN has had countless wonderful and interesting threads about things from outside "the anglosphere". As HN is an English-language site one would expect those to be less common, but they are well-represented, well-loved, and welcome.
