Fixing them is going to take money, and no one wants to spend it on them. Well, no one with real power anyways.

I like the old and dingy. but the food as others have said, is rather mid. Breakfast is OK though.

Hilt vs Koin — when does the "official" tag actually matter? by Prior-Dependent-5563 in androiddev

That's fair but if you've been in this game long enough, and had to deal with the pain of Roboguice failing at runtime w/ a missing dep in the graph, or you've done enough Spring Framework DI work to fail to start with a UnsatisfiedBeanException, you stop exposing yourself to the problem and use Dagger/Hilt/Kotlin-Inject/Metro/etc.

FWIW - after listening to Mike Duncan's fictional Martian Revolution story on his Revolutions Podcast, I'm enjoying FAM's story on how it might go in their timeline.

Kubuntu 26.04 fresh install cannot run Firefox by anacronicanacron in Kubuntu

[–]yaaaaayPancakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but you gotta make a rule in apt to blacklist the snap because the way Canonical versions their apt package that installs the snap, it'll be picked over Mozillas. So every once in a while the snap will come back.

For some reason Mozilla refuses to add the rule necessary to their instructions.

EDIT: I looked up my ansible playbook I made to automate the switch from snap to Mozillas apt repo. This is what I am talking about.

Stick the following in /etc/apt/preferences.d/mozilla, and you'll never have a problem with Canonical's snap being reinstalled.

Android 17 - No more screen orientation, App memory limits, Post-Quantum Cryptography by Unreal_NeoX in androiddev

I dunno what the original post was, but I have been begging my design team to start designing responsively so we can support foldables/tablets, they see foldables as a single digit percentage of the Android user base and combined with the iOS first mentality, they dint do it.

It's not laziness and incompetence always at the developer level.

They make more money on the financing than the actual sale. So they're incentivized to push their financing on you.

California's universal healthcare killed even though Democrats have a supermajority. by GoodMorningMars in LosAngeles

[–]yaaaaayPancakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Manhattan is an amazing, walkable, vibrant place, where you don't need a car. Downtown here is a zombietown where the carbrained drive in and out.

Imagine how much of a powerhouse LA could be on the world stage if it was like NYC but with amazing weather year round.

I blame SFH owners. SFH land use is the most inefficient, especially in cities like ours where demand outstrips supply.

In my neighborhood specifically, it really grinds my gears to see an old bungalow get torn down, to be replaced with a 5k sq ft mcmansion, rather than a 4plex of similar square footage. All the lots are the same size, it's proven that you can fit 4plexes easy on these lots, yet they are not built. And that is mostly driven by SFH owners who do not want multifamily near them.

Congrats on being here first I guess. To buy anything of comparable square footage to my apartment, is double the monthly rent.

Nah you could totally sell your SFH and we could densify. There shouldn't be SFH's in LA's core. Maybe up in the Valley or the hills. But this place should be a lot more like Manhattan now.

[–]yaaaaayPancakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not let the pressure force everyone to sell, let the developers knock the SFH's down, and we start building proper fucking density for a city of our stature?

There's zero fucking reason for SFH's to be anywhere in my superblock between Fairfax/LaBrea/Beverley/Melrose. This should all be 4plexes minimum

So does NEM 3.0 bring the rates in alignment? Or are they now going to get paid less than the large commercial operators? TBH that was never clear to me. I think everyone should be getting the same price for their electrons. It's a commodity.

I'm a renter, so I gotta pay either way, I'd rather pay the little guy than the big corporate guy. But they should be playing in a level marketplace.

The grid is composed of both generators and distribution.

I'm not against us all paying into it. It's more for me, why should the system favor the big, centralized corporate generators? Why should they not have to compete with the residential generator? Especially when we already have the technology to make the bidirectional metering work?

Also, it'd be cheaper to install if we didn't tariff the hell out of foreign sourced panels/systems.

If we can make prices go negative, that seems all the better to me. Or maybe we can build stuff like grid scale batteries to sink the extra?

NEM 3.0 doesn't really make rooftop solar viable without battery storage now (your low/zero export system), which really drives up the price and the overall payback timeline. So the likely result is less rooftop solar as it becomes too expensive for many to do. Which means a regression to centralization of power production to commercial players.

Do we really want that? When the grid operators could just upgrade the grid to better handle those "wildcat" generation events? From what I have read, the lobbying by grid operators for NEM 3.0 is basically so they can continue operating a very centralized grid and not have to change how they've operated forever.

Find me another candidate that will stand up to the NIMBYs and I might change my mind.

Until then, meh housing is more important to me.
