  • Vaude has a page for products made in Germany

    Jump

  • It is subjective and the backpacks are not even the same model, but if someone who have experience from the backpack I'm looking for would have seen it they could perhaps provide some feedback. There is only one review at the site so it's not so much to go on.

  • Indeed, lets hope this is the first of many funds that can invest in European industry.

  • Have you had them for a long time? How is the quality? My current backpack must be 10 years and show wear and I want to replace it before I get holes in it. It's a cheap North face which I use it daily for commuting, short hikes and travels.

    How is the ergonomics of your backpacks?

    I have not really decided on the size of my new backpack, the current one is 26 liters. And I might go for something similar, like the 22 liters backpack, or I might go for one smaller and one bigger.

  • Good question, I have never tried any other OS than Android and Windows phone before it was stopped. However, I'm waiting for the Jolla phone and hope that Sailfish will be good. I would have tried a Linux based OS if any of my phones supported one.

  • Does anyone how any experience from Vaude's backpacks? I'm thinking about buying the Proof 22 multifunctional backpack, or something similar from Vaude or other brands, but it would be nice to hear from someone with experience from it.

  • Did you try later if it worked?

  • On step 4, it is possible to go to home/.steam/steam/steamapps/compactdata/ and run this command in the terminal

    ls --recursive | grep Rockstar

    And it will output something like

    Rockstar Games./3613745575/pfx/drive_c/ProgramData/Rockstar Games: ./3613745575/pfx/drive_c/ProgramData/Rockstar Games/Launcher: Rockstar Games

    Which means that the correct folder is 3613745575.

    It worked for me with Proton 11.0 (Beta), I can log in and play games. First it didn't work but the launcher started after I restarted my computer. I updated the system and one of the updated programs was Wine, don't know if that is connected somehow. I also tried to install Rockstar Games Launcher on Heroic and Lutris but I couldn't get it to work. I have Nvidia if it matters.

  • Cool, Fairphone + Ubuntu touch seems like it would be a good combo. The only question mark is how well banking apps and other must have apps are working since they often have dependencies to Android or Iphone.

  • deGoogled Android is still an improvement for someone who have never considered anything else than Android or Iphone.

  • Fairphone can bought with Android or e/OS. On the e/OS site they say

    /e/OS is a "deGoogled" version of Android OS

    So a Fairphone with e/OS will still have a dependency to Google. It might be possible to use Fairphone with postmarketOS or something else that is based on Linux, I have not looked into it.

  • European leaders see Trump's troop drawdown from Germany as new proof they must go it alone

  • Have US made a decision on pulling those soldiers or is it only a tweet from Trump?

    As you say, it can't be a surprise unless they have been hiding under a stone for years.

  • Code Quality

    Jump

  • And there is never time to maintain the code, because each project only want to add more feature/s which makes the spaghetti code even worse.

    In my group we had a golden opportunity to fix all old mistakes but no, we (decided by PO and group manager) needed to spend all time on proof of concepts that will go to production at earliest in 5 years. Now that opportunity is gone and we are crunching in order to meet the deadlines instead. Still with bad code quality of course.

  • Yeah, companies that earn money should contribute to the open source projects that they are using. Especially in cases like this where the product would be completely different without this open source.

  • Molten salt can also be used for heat storage. I'm not sure what the advantages are of molten salt vs water vs sand and what is most realistic.

    I don't think any of those alternatives are used in large scale.

    As a side note, some ski resorts are saving snow during the summer to be able to open earlier in the season.

  • I think the pumped storage is more used when there is an excess of electricty, for example when wind power plants produces large amount of electricity and the prices goes toward zero, or sometime negative.

  • They write this on their "About us"

    Open source

    We don't just use open source — we contribute to it. We report bugs, provide feedback and think along about the direction of projects like Immich. Open source is a principle for us, not a marketing term.

  • Remember when they had their guide ofnhow to build a PC? It was wrong on so many things, but apparently they edited the guide. I have not read the current version so it could perhaps be good now or at least now misleading.
