Depends on what you use for the blog. Most blogging software does have RSS support. If you’re writing the blog by hand, you need to create the RSS manually, or if there’s some kind of source for the blog posts, generate it from the source data.

Don’t ever install WordPress, just let it die. It’s slow, insecure and the owner is a dick.

Yep. For example during the Soviet occupation here, the Colorado potato beetle got imported here somehow and given it doesn’t have any natural predators, it destroyed potatoes like crazy.

Well, guess what? According to Soviet propaganda it was intentionally done by Americans to destroy our “paradise” and our food.

Everything bad that happened was because the evil imperialists worked against our paradise.

The country being so poor it couldn’t afford enough toilet paper for its citizens? Westerners! All foreign fruit being very scarce and people standing in long lines to get it, while the ones in the back knew they probably aren’t getting any today? Also westerners’ fault. Meat being available only for the few lucky ones who came early, or were friends with the butcher? Yep, this one’s on westerners too.

Propaganda is not the usual over-the-top stories, it’s subtle. Would you today believe if someone told you that Americans have imported the Colorado potato beetle intentionally? And would you, if it was consistent with everything you’ve heard since you were a kid?

QML is such an awesome UI language, the only thing (that I know of) that comes close is Jetpack Compose.

The flavour of JavaScript QML uses is very different from regular JavaScript, it’s literally a glue language and any significant non-UI logic should be done in C++.

And Qt C++ is very different to most other C++ framework (or how people usually write pure C++), it feels much more Java-inspired.

Anyway, it really is a great UI toolkit if you want something powerful, cross-platform and efficient.

Qt is my favourite, though it’s not .NET.

Yep, this is the reason, the service that facilitates this is called Lemmy Federate.

I don’t think he’s little anymore.

I mean, not even 500k people in the whole of EU care about this apparently, so we get what we deserve, I guess.

It really looked like it’ll be signed quickly in the beginning, I was really hopeful.

Now I’m not really sure it will pass.

J2ME are old dumb non-touchscreen phones. My last one was Sony Ericsson j108i. And just now reading the Wikipedia entry, it was actually the last non-smartphone phone by Sony Ericsson! Nice.

Damn, the nostalgia is real. And the design still looks much better than smartphones which look pretty much all the same. Back then, phones had personality.

The Sony Ericsson phones in particular had very advanced J2ME support that I didn’t see that much difference between that and my first smartphone (Nokia C5-03). Not that there weren’t differences, the smartphone was definitely more advanced, but it wasn’t that huge of a leap.

Nope, it doesn’t have a controller built-in and its main purpose isn’t gaming. You can’t run PS games on a Switch, does that somehow magically make either not a console?

You can play Mario on old dumb phones using J2ME emulators.

Everyone also always forgets that they save money on distribution massively. And that the amount of games sold has increased significantly.

It’s not as simple as dollars had more value, games should cost more.

It’s a console and a PC in one package! Or you feel like the other consoles don’t have an operating system in them?

You can play Switch games on Steam Deck! At least I do. Some play even better than on Switch.

Does Dungeons 3 or 4 count? If so, these games are great.

That game’s really great, definitely better than at launch. Still many bugs, but it’s been fun playing with my partner on our local server.

PHP_EOL depends on your host system, it’s \r\n on Windows.

I don’t really want to use what Lerdorf intended, PHP <= 4 was horrible, 5.x was mainly getting slowly rid of nonsense and with 7.x PHP started its slow path of redemption and entered its modern era.

While Lerdorf’s vision was great at that time for its intended use case, I wouldn’t want to build anything serious in it.

In PHP it exists as well. I try to use PHP_EOL but when I’m lazy I simply do “\n”.

PHP: 0.3*

* with default precision
