A-7 was a Navy jet first, Air Force later got their own variant, just like the F-4 Phantom.

Also, both pictured jets are NAVY?

Larry likes foreigners, but they rarely take an interest in him, and he never got past the first date, as Falcon keeps stealing his thunder. The poor guy.

EU to exempt heavy industry from carbon tax on exports in c/europe@feddit.org

Yes, it's called CBAM and it's the most beautiful tax I've ever seen:

Genuinely great blog post!

This is perfect for !linuxmemes@lemmy.world though: "nah I don't want to switch to Linux, it's hard. I'll just compile QEMU with some patches to run VMs on Windows"

A permanent exception may actually be OK: China is much further along in the energy transition and the CCP are not doing that out of the kindness of their genocidal hearts: economic forces make electrification inevitable, as we can already see with EVs.

Also, the European market is big enough to have global impact, even if our rules aren't matched by other world powers eventually.

That was my first response too, but on second thought, this may be a good balance between keeping European industry strong and green incentives:

  • EVERY COMPANY pays carbon tax over what they sell in Europe: the EU made sure that carbon tax is paid over imports too so it is not worth it to companies who want to sell in EU to move production out of Europe
  • By not taxing exports, European heavy industry gets to compete fairly outside Europe too: American companies don't pay European carbon tax on what they sell in the US. If we would tax European heavy industry exports, they would be at a severe disadvantage.

European heavy industry isn't doing great overall. This is partly their own fault: lobbying has focused on keeping grey tech alive instead of enabling a green transition, but also largely because of high wages and regulation in Europe.

We need to push European heavy industry through the energy transition, not into bankruptcy. I'd rather do the energy transition a little slower than be completely dependent on American and Chinese companies for steel, aluminium, etc.

And I've been arrested at many climate protests, so don't tell me I don't care enough about the climate!

[Discussion] What games are you playing on your Deck? - July 2025 in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

OG Crysis!

It's a pretty great Deck game, and I'd never seen it run as consistently as it does on Deck at 40fps limit.

9950x3d cache optimizations on Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] F04118F 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

keep it on cache since I do a lot of code compilation, but I will usually switch it to frequency for gaming and stuff.

Isn't gaming the most cache-heavy CPU workload there is? The X3D CPUs have consistently topped gaming benchmarks, even outperforming much more modern CPUs that lack 3D cache.

I'd sooner do it the other way around: frequency for compiling, rendering, transcoding, etc. Cache for gaming!

@Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone this feeling you describe, is exactly how I feel every time I see one of your posts on Lemmy.

Thank you for the good vibes!

Trump praises Nato states as summit prepares to lift defence spending target in c/europe@feddit.org
[–] F04118F 9 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It's not something to be proud of, that's obvious.

But Rutte was not made secretary-general because of his personal pride. I wasn't happy to have him as prime minister, at all, for all those years, but he is very good at one thing: getting everyone in the room to agree and making everyone in the room feel heard.

This is how you get Trump to be enthusiastic about your project. He is using Trump's ego to get him om board with NATO. This is top-tier manipulation, and it's working!

Rutte is the perfect man for this job, and this is exactly why. No pride, no ego, just doing whatever it takes to keep the unity in NATO and to ensure we are strong enough to deter Russia.

Can anyone PROVE this isn't how things would play out if Romania joined the war? Just asking questions :thonk: in c/noncredibledefense@lemmy.world

Nothing is too big a task for the armed forces that flew the MiG-21 for 61 years and turned it into a precision bomber.

Not seeing new Linux kernels (Fedora) in systemd-boot (self.linux4noobs)
 

cross-posted from: https://feddit.nl/post/24216224

Problem: new kernels not showing up in boot menu

I can install new kernels, and I see them in /boot/efi/{PARITION_UUID}, but they don't show up in the systemd-boot menu.

Data

Normally, Fedora shows the 3 latest kernels (plus a recovery kernel) in the boot menu. I only see up to 6.11.6 in the systemd-boot menu. On the /boot partition, I see much newer kernel versions (both labeled fc40 and fc41)

Systemd-boot

I started with other distros on this disk before I settled on Fedora. Since I was happy with systemd-boot and its automatic discovery of boot entries, I chose to use systemd-boot when I installed Fedora. I know that Grub is the default bootloader and manager for Fedora, but I have systemd-boot. It's an option in the installer.

Major OS upgrades and rolling back the rollback

Last weekend I upgraded from Fedora 40 KDE Spin to Fedora 41. On the next Monday morning, screensharing in Edge Browser had stopped working, so I rolled back to a Fedora 40 snapshot with BTRFS Assistant. This turned out to be an issue in the latest Edge version, not in the underlying OS, so I rolled back the rollback and went to the Monday evening snapshot, then upgraded my packages.

Ever since, I'm not seeing new Kernels in the systemd-boot menu. Any idea how I can fix this, short of a fresh install of Fedora 41 KDE?

UK protest rule (feddit.nl)
 

Context: in the UK, climate activists got 4-5 years in jail for planning a non-violent protest. The law that made this possible was literally written by the oil lobby: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-investigations/rishi-sunak-right-wing-think-tank-anti-protest-laws-policy-exchange/?ref=publicsquare.uk
