Kotlin targets the JVM right? I think you’d need either a port of the runtime (dalvik?) Or an api translation later a la WINE.

But I don’t actually know anything, so don’t listen to me. Having a fully Foss phone with support for the android app ecosystem would be wonderful though

I always thought that people using searx etc over duckduckgo were just gluttons for punishment. Having gone an entire morning without search, maybe now is the time to dive down that rabbit hole…

There’s a former apple designer on the team I think, which they’ve been leaning into hard to get the hype train rolling.

Thanks, fixed! (TIL you need the https:// bit on Lemmy)

There is, they just don’t publicise it. Actually one of my favourite features of the service tbf. Just load up a web page and all my messages are there, regardless of where they came from.

By default, XWayland apps are now allowed to listen for non-alphanumeric keypresses, and shortcuts using modifier keys. This lets any global shortcut features they may have work with no user intervention required, while still not allowing arbitrary listening for alphanumeric keypresses which could potentially be used maliciously

This is… very smart actually. Any reason this is limited to Xwayland? (Is that XDG portal a thing yet?)

It’s a bit repetitive, but it’s not too bad.

Eventually valve will probably push a SteamOS update out with plasma 6. But it’ll be up to then when to do it.

What’s happening with The Escapist? I thought things had been going better over there recently

Whilst I agree that that’s a nice option to have (more options are usually better!) I’ve come to love the linux way of distribution via repositories. These days I barely use the cli too: GNOME software and KDE’s Discover are great. Perhaps an official nightly flatpak would be best?

I love the concept of organic maps, and do even use it occasionally, but for now I’m mostly sticking to OSMand.

The main feature missing for me is the ability to customise the map styles. I like using map apps for hiking and organic maps default (/only) style is ugly at best and unusable at worst for this.

So yeah, going 100% air-source heat pump if you’re area regularly spends time around -30°C (-22F) might not be the best idea. Though even the last report you cited said it might be 1.5-2x as efficient as resistive heating. And that Site 1 with bad COPs was because they manually lowered the fan speed…
