EU backs German chip fabs with €623m State aid in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

It's a Belgium company now, right? Still much better then an outside EU one.

Good IDE/code editor for developing Android apps with Kotlin? in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] Mihies@programming.dev 2 points 8 hours ago

Another alternative that I know of is Rider which supports Android apps with .NET. But it's not OSS nor supports Kotlin. I'd like to see an alternative as well, but I fear unless Jetbrains creates something else (and most probably they won't) there will be no other options.

The USA and Europe are now enemies in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world
[–] Mihies@programming.dev 0 points 1 day ago

They provide the weapons so we can help them with imperialism. Also while Europe doesn't (?) blindly support Israel, the second biggest genocide enabler comes from EU and third (probably) comes from ex-EU. Yes, there are some European countries that don't blindly support Israel, but at the best they whine a bit about our concern.

So just throw all that confirmed NO to Guantanamo. There, problem solved.

Yes, I wonder why that "are you a terrorist" question isn't enough for them.

Hyperloop has been dead for years now, actually it was from the start, just nobody was actually thinking or they have other interests, like grab as much money out of it as possible.

Electric vehicles made by European companies under 40k euros 🇪🇺 in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Also no car on the list uses LFP batteries, show~~e~~s a lag behind China.

40K is still a huge threshold.

Israel violates ceasefire and kills senior Hamas commander Raed Saed in Gaza strike, Israeli media say in c/world@quokk.au
[–] Mihies@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

I think he's a bit "special" when it comes to these ceasefires.

Besides in empty Orange's head, was it even a ceasefire there? I mean from the genocidal country.

EU banks should reduce their reliance on US Big Tech, top supervisor says in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
[–] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 2 days ago

No. I'm saying if the proposal didn't have reach at least across EU, people won't switch. As for now, how can I, being outside those four countries?

Pixel 6a battery replacement (programming.dev)
 

Hi guys,

Unfortunately I have a bloody Pixel 6a (my first and last Google phone) with problematic battery and I wonder where to get a replacement battery from. There is plenty of those on AliExpress but I'd really like to avoid having a battery with same issues or worse. There is no battery available from my country's importer. I'm from EU. Any recommendation?

TIA

On X11 and the Fascists Maggots (blogs.gnome.org)
 

This is a truly WTF moment about messed up responses to X11 session removal in Gnome.

2 weeks ago I published a blogpost about the upcoming plans of GNOME 49 and the eventual removal of the X11 session. Since then, instead of looking at feedback, bugs and issues related to the topic, we all collectively had to deal with the following, and I am not exaggerating one bit:

  • Fascists and Nazis
  • Wild Conspiracy Theories that make Qanon jealous
  • “Concerned” Trolling about the Accessibility of the Wayland session
  • A culture war where Wayland is Gay, and X11 is the glorious past they stole from you

In my wildest dreams I could have never made this shit up. You all need mandatory supervised access to the Internet from now on.

Sadly Roglič, after taking ~~3~~ 4 falls, abandons the Giro. 🙁

About backup and switching to a different distro (programming.dev)
 

I'm going to move away from Windows into Linux and have some strategical questions, among others how do you handle backups/restore and how do you switch distros.

There are two main questions (in case of catastrophic failure or transition):

  1. How do you reinstall your apps? I'm considering ansible for that - have all my installs (as much as possible) done through ansible playbooks.
  2. How do you recover your backup data? Just copy from backup to home directory probably won't do when it comes to a different distro, or? Here I'm considering doing ZFS snapshosts (ZFS pool/datasets would be used for my home directory) to my backup server but not sure how to recover it in case of switching to a different distro. It should be copy in the case of system restoration I guess.

Any other recommendations?

driving three 4K DP displays with a 9900X(3D) iGPU? (programming.dev)
 

Did anybody manage to drive three 4K@60 displays with just the iGPU of a 9900X or forthcoming X3D? The displays should be all DP or HDMI, but not a mix, so a KVM switch can be used. From what I see, mobos have at best two USB4 ports that each could drive 2 DP displays. In theory, that is. While CPU should be able to drive three such displays. I'm not into gaming or such, just need displays for development and want to avoid unnecessary discrete GPU and it's power draw if possible.

A front light "for being seen" for K-Edge (GoPro) mount? (programming.dev)
 

I'm looking for a front light "for being seen" that can be mounted under K-Edge mount - GoPro adapter. Not looking for something heavier that illuminates the road ahead (thought I might in future). It has to e rechargeable, USB-C preferably and available in EU. Any suggestions? TIA

Well written thoughts on C#12 primary constructors. Sadly they are not really useful. At least for now.

How does breaking affect brakes? (programming.dev)
 

I was always wondering this. Imagine a steep descent. What is better for brake wear - braking constantly or more powerful just at the end? Anybody knows? Goes for both rim and disc brakes

Is Fiido Titan a good bike? (eu.fiido.com)
 

I'm considering Fiido Titan as e-bike for shopping and short distance commuting. It's hilly where I need it. Any thoughts on bike quality or anything else? From a review on YouTube it seems decent enough. TIA

in what shape is Jonas? (programming.dev)
 

Hopeful Jonas recovered after all the injuries, but I somehow doubt it that he'll be at 100% after those injuries without much time to recover. While I'm rooting for PogRog, I fear a repeat of Giro, where Pog dominated and made it boring to watch. Or perhaps Remco will kick in, but then again he was also injured and didn't do well at Dauphine. What's you take?
