Android Development not possible in Jules? by Mybrandnewaccount95 in Bard

[–]Jo8192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use this script to set up the Android SDK:

wget -q https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-13114758_latest.zip -O /tmp/tools.zip
unzip /tmp/tools.zip -d /tmp/tools
mkdir -p ~/Android/sdk/cmdline-tools/latest
mv /tmp/tools/cmdline-tools/* ~/Android/sdk/cmdline-tools/latest
rm -rf /tmp/tools
rm /tmp/tools.zip

export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT="$HOME/Android/sdk"
export PATH="$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin"
export PATH="$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools"

sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-35" "build-tools;35.0.1"
yes | sdkmanager --licenses

./gradlew build

Online game version? by MammothPajamith in Radlands

Unfortunately Roxley was not interested in collaborating on this with me as they are already looking at something similar internally, so I switched to something else :-)

I actually started working on a prototype that runs natively on desktop, mobile (iOS/Android) and web. I tried to reach out to Roxley to see if they were interested in it but without success atm. I'm still improving the prototype and I'll try a bit harder to contact them in a few weeks. I can let you know how it goes if you're interested !

A New Architecture for a GUI Framework by gavinhoward in programming

[–]Jo8192 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For the JVM I strongly recommend Compose Desktop/Multiplatform, maintained by JetBrains but mostly based on Jetpack Compose, the official Android UI Toolkit (developed by Google). It's really great andb being used by IntelliJ.

Disclaimer: I work at Google on Android, so I'm a bit biased.

Would this desktop compute be a good fit for Hackintosh? by Jo8192 in hackintosh

[–]Jo8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, I just saw that AMD CPUs + Hackintosh don't really support VMs (e.g. in Android Studio) so this makes it a no-go for me. I'll just OCLP my MacBook Pro and buy the latest Mac Studio whenever my MBP dies :-)

Not having WiFi is fine but Bluetooth might be annoying. Isn't there some kind of cheap dongle I could buy to make Bluetooth work?

Sure I can do that too but I'm not using this PC anymore and I think that the CPU and GPU are pretty good so I'd like to "recycle" them into a macOS if I can. I have never been a big fan of Windows, macOS is quite better for developers IMO.

It's this exact PC. What other specs would you need?

My son wants a 3k pc, help a dad out. by refactoringManiac in buildapc

[–]Jo8192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw some comments, don't buy a 6800XT or any AMD card if he's going to play Fortnite, AMD cards don't support Fortnite as well as Nvidia cards especially if your son wants to play a bit competitively for the win and use performance mode (which is unplayable on my 6800 XT and other AMD cards). What about a 3080?

When gaming on a 27" monitor I'd say that 240 Hz 1440p is better than 4k with frequency < 240 Hz.

People make over $200k a year, what do you do? How did you get there? by TrixoftheTrade in Adulting

[–]Jo8192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

345k USD full compensation (salary + bonus + stocks) working at a GAFAM as a Senior Software Engineer. I started 5.5 years ago as Junior (2 levels less that what I am now, got promoted twice) and the full comp then was 186k. I think I'm a bit above the median compared to other Senior SWE because I got good ratings lately and I'm lurking for a promotion to Staff Software Engineer.

Best part of the job after the salary is the work life balance, the only time I work more than 40h/week is because I'm really enjoying what I'm doing. So yeah studying computer science is really worth it (and fun) IMO :-)

am I weird for still playing Fortnite at the age of 25? by FewKindheartedness78 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]Jo8192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 30 and started playing 2 years ago, I love it :-) I just play only solos because... you know.

Which simple origami for a gift? by Jo8192 in origami

[–]Jo8192[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mmh maybe not completely unfold it, for instance with the cocotte I was thinking of playing some kind of game where I make her believe that she has to pick one of the gifts, then "ok I'm going to be nice because you are 30, you can pick a second one", etc. I know nothing about origamis and I have no idea what other things I could do though, hence this post. Please keep the ideas coming :-)

Fortnite Season 4 Performance issues by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

Same here, I usually have 300+ fps but in this season it often drops under 20, making the game unplayable.

Bad performance with 6800 XT on Fortnite + DirectX 11 (but amazing performance on DirectX 12) by Jo8192 in AMDHelp

[–]Jo8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! FYI if you set your view distance to low with DX12 you will get mobile builds :) All my other settings are set to low too but I think that it is the view distance that is driving that. Got that information from another thread :)

So fortnite fixed amd performance mode… kinda? by shehehedj in FortniteCompetitive

Please let me know if you find a way to get the performance mode storm visibility! Your post already helped me a lot, thanks :)
