  • Is gamedev a good hobby? or should i try something else?

  • But that is the best part of user software development.

    Developing [a game] is pretty much free, so if you make any money out of it at all is just a bonus.

    Most physical hobbies cost money where if you make some money from it it likely won't even start breaking even, you are often 1-10k€ in the hole before you even start selling anything.

  • Proton has handed over 32,076 users' data to governments since 2017. Their own transparency report states a 94% compliance rate in 2024.

  • That doesn't mean anything.

    If you "by default" don't log, then when receiving a court order, there is nothing to hand over which is the entire point. If,magically, logs from the past 5 years when they said there were "no logs" show up, that means they were lying about no logs.

    Just like they now advertise that your data is fully end to end encrypted and even they can't see it.

    If, with a court order, they are able to decrypt and hand over your data, then they were lying in the first place that they couldn't read your data and it isn't end to end encrypted

    Court orders aren't some magical thing that go back in time and redo history. The entire point of these heavily advertised precautions is exactly against court orders by corrupt, tyrannical governments using the law as a political or fascist blunt weapon against citizens.

  • As someone in the motor fabrication business, stamping and adhering the stators are something that is really hard to do price-competitively compared to China and India.

    Winding machines are also insanely expensive for people trying to break into the industry to become more independent, and they are mostly chinese-made nowadays too. Older-secondhand Italian equipment exists, but I don't know about new stuff, also probably much more expensive

  • V-rising

    A sort of diablo-style game where you are the bad guy vampire. Very fun, but the damn server doesn't pause time when it is empty, so I can only spin it up when I plan to play, not have it on all the time like valheim if my friends want to jump in without me and play

  • EU drops 2035 combustion engine ban as global EV shift faces reset

    跳过

  • 2024 reports in Belgium say 42% nuclear (53% import, indeed from France), 17.3% gas, and 17.9% wind, biofuel at 3%, and solar at 11.9% (probably mostly from residential feedback).

    So gas is pretty much being eliminated. It dropped from 30% in 2020 to 17.3% in 2024.

    And prices have only gone up with those savings. But that probably has to do more with extremely corrupt scammers that we have as energy companies. For example in the oil crisis at the start of the Russian invasion, gas exploded in price (3x more expensive) in November. My gas company (Mega) tried to say that we used 99.7% of our gas in November and December only. We apparently only used the equivalent of a single hot shower through the rest of the year. We work with a monthly "estimated usage" payment and then the difference between actual usage is paid at the end of the year. This resulted in us having a 3500€ bill at the end of the year.

    Luckily we had a (now standard) smart meter so we could prove via a 3rd party that they were flat out lying and scamming us, but then it was "oopsie poopsie, how could we know??" Anyway, they get record profits every year, so that is probably a lot of the reason

  • But in much of the EU, electricity is expensive.

    I had an EV for a while (tons of people have company cars in Belgium) and charging it at a fast charging station costs like 10% more per km than gas. A regular charging station is very slightly cheaper.

    Charging at home used to be cheaper, but now energy companies charge a fee for "peak energy usage" that is more than 15 minutes, so if you charge your car at 11kW at home once in a month, you will get an extra fee on your 250€/month energy bill of 50€.

    I am interested in that battery research though, because charge-cycle wise, only lithium iron phosphate subsection of EV battery chemistry would last even near that long. Lithium ion only lasts 500 cycles before degrading to 70% and LiPo is only 1000. My ID4 could do 420 km on a charge, assuming a LiPo composition, that is 420k kilometers, which is a quarter of what you say. That said, that is a pretty long lifetime for a car. Especially because all of the sensor systems would break down or be remotely disabled to force you to buy new ones long before then.

  • Lol what kind of engineering? Because it probably isn't mechanical, electronics, or civil because most of those programs don't work in Linux 😂

    I have dreams of KiCAD and FreeCAD becoming good enough to be used a lot in industry and kiCAD is nearly there, but missing tons of productivity and collaboration features, but altium is still pretty ubiquitous, spaghetti code garbage that it can be.

  • Adaruit and arduino both don't make microcontrollers lol

    Adafruit can literally just fork it and rehost it. It would be a perfect time to mode arduino to an independent non-microsoft instance and move all of their website links pointing to github arduino repos.

  • Why did you move from Windows to Linux?

    跳过

  • My father used opensuse all through the 2000s when they still delivered CDs, so I always saw them laying around. I tried out Linux my first year of university (mint back then) because my mediocre laptop would take an insane time to startup windows 7. Battery life was significantly worse though. Maybe a part because my father used it because of unresolved feelings after he died.
