EU-Autoindustrie plädiert für Verschiebung von strengeren Abgasregeln
  • Wenn doch nur jemand frühzeitig gesagt hätte, dass das Verbrenner-Aus droht! Oh, hat man?

    Ja, wenn dann doch jemand wenigstens massenhaft Geld in Richtung Auto-Industrie geblasen hätte, um E-Autos voranzubringen! Oh, hat man auch?

    Ja, und wo ist dann jetzt auf einmal das Problem?

    Mastodon: In Bayern wurden dieses Jahr durch Balkonkraftwerke mehr Erneuerbare Energien zugebaut als durch Windräder!
  • Wenn die Bayern mal hingehen würden und Windkraft so ausbauen, wie sie es sinnvollerweise müssten, dann würden die Balkonkraftwerke unter "ferner liefen" laufen.

    Bayern: 38 kW installierte Leistung in Kilowatt pro Quadratkilometer (Letzter Platz in Deutschland). Ganze 4 Windkraftwerke haben sie dieses Jahr in Betrieb genommen (Stand 17.07.2024). Spitzenreiter ist Schleswig-Holstein mit 551kW, aber selbst dicht besiedelte Bundesländer ohne Küste (z.B. NRW) sind zig mal Besser als Bayern(TM).

    Trump's threat to punish countries that drop US dollar will speed up de-dollarization
  • Actually de-dollarizing is probably the biggest threat to the US economy. Because the USA lives off the fact that quite a lot of dollars are hoarded worldwide as cash reserves. There are scenarios that see the USD below 10 Euro-Cents if the dollar fails to stay the default oil currency.

    MAGA pastor claims Kamala Harris deployed "witchcraft" in Trump debate
  • They are really running out of real arguments.

    On the other hand, this is one of the more creative explanation of Trumps utter f-up. What's next? Were the aliens providing Trump with mental energy having reactor trouble in their UFOs?

    Lemmy right now
  • Reminds me of a prank I have read about: someone scanned a large WiW poster, photoshopped Wally out, and had it printed. Then he used it to keep the kids busy during a family gathering.

    Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race?
  • What keeps him in the race? The lack of alternatives. No Republican candidate but Trump has even a chance to win. The GOP has no viable political program that could create a victory, all they have are the blind and dumb masses of Trump followers.

    Harris widens lead over Trump; voters say she won the debate: poll
  • It would be interesting to see those numbers only for people who have actually watched the debate, and not just a random subsection of the population.

    Lindner fordert Abschaffung telefonischer Krankschreibung
  • Typisches weltfremdes Lindner-Geschwafel. Ausgerechnet der Politiker, der sein Leben lang keinen Tag in einem echten Job gearbeitet hat, fordert Dinge, die, wenn man sie genau betrachtet, vollkommen hirnlos sind. FDP-Ideen halt.

    Die telefonische Krankschreibung ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Gesundheitsvorsorge. Oder will jemand (geistig normales, nicht Lindner) ernsthaft, dass sich jemand mit einer ansteckenden Krankheit in eine Arztpraxis kommt, dort mangels Termin stundenlang im Wartezimmer sitzt, und alle Welt ansteckt?

    What movie have you rewatched the most?
  • "Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel" (Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella). It runs at least a dozen times around each Christmas since I was a kid, and is part of the usual Christmas habits.

    Debate wrap up: No one has ever so thoroughly dominated Donald Trump
  • Harris was given the questions in advance

    It would need a particular stupid person not to know what kind of topics/questions will come up in such a debate.

  • My problem: I want to create an inventory of my parts. For that I need data I could look up on BL. Sadly, my storage has no internet whatsoever, so I need an offline solution.

    I have found the LDRAW library inside the Studio installation, which gives me the parts and their design. They contain the name of the part, too, but only as a comment, and I have yet to verify if this is consistent. I think I could rig a software that renders me the picture as I need it for my application, so that's that.

    But there are other files inside the Studio installation, and I wonder if there is a way to find the following information from this:

    • BL Category (Like "Brick" or "Plate Modified")
    • LEGO part numbers and colors that exists for a certain design
    • Parts Weight

    I don't need any rapidly changing data like price or availability.

    Has anyone here done this, or knows a software that does this?

    Sounds easy? Well, it should have been. I'm not talking about a "Hello, World!" (although it is more or less on the same level for me). The goal was to write a set of three MQTT clients that properly talk with each other and interact nicely.

    So I had to learn Python and MQTT on the same day. Should not be an issue after 40 years of programming. But it quickly turned out that the Python library/package for MQTT on Ubuntu was heavily outdated (1.6), and did not supply all the functions the documentation and examples (2.0) asked for. Using pip3 didn't work, as it complained that the package structure was maintained by the OS. In the end, I had to virtualize the python3 system and pip3 the 2.0 package there and run it.

    After about three hours, I had the clients working as they should. Yes, I think MQTT is a good base for the next project.

    The new Eldorado Fortress is listed at €214.99. Is it just me, or is this set much to expensive for what it is? When I saw it, I thought "Maybe €150, €170 tops", and was shocked when I heard the real price.

    I know (who doesn't?) that LEGO is not cheap, but this is not a Starwars set, it is 100% their own IP.
