China is preparing to lift sanctions on European lawmakers as it tries to revive an investment deal with the EU after losing most of its access to the US market in Donald Trump’s trade war.

A spokesperson for Roberta Metsola, president of the European parliament, confirmed the move, first reported by German daily Süddeutsche Zeitung.

Beijing took the measures against several MEPs in 2021 after the EU placed sanctions on some Chinese entities because of alleged human rights violations against the Uyghur Muslim minority in the northwestern region of Xinjiang.

The European parliament then refused to ratify an EU-China Comprehensive Agreement on Investment that would have deepened trade ties between the two.

“The president will first inform group leaders once the Chinese authorities officially confirm that sanctions have been lifted. It has always been the European parliament’s intention to have the sanctions lifted and resume relations with China.”

Yea the filename issue should be fine, there's a risk of corruption with exFAT though as @tal@lemmy.today mentioned, but if you're just storing steam games or other easily replaceable data, I wouldn't worry about it to much IMO

It does look like there has been major improvements since the last time I tried this kind of shenanigans. Which admittedly has been many years, these days I just don't bother with dual booting so I'm free to just use the native FS wherever needed for the OS I'm using OR I have an intermediary like a SAN or it's on a VM or something

Still though, using a non-native FS in this manner is always more headaches than it's worth, the no journaling is a corruption risk true, but so is using a non-native FS just in different ways lol

IMO, the use case for this drive is storing re-downloadable data is perfectly fine for exFAT, worst case it corrupts and you have to redownload games from steam

He's no leader. He has no plan. He just acts and reacts.

Yea I don't get those folks who are always like "He's playing 4D chesssss" no no he's not, there's no master plan or handler or anything.

There's a bunch of people with their own little plans, from P25 christian nationalists to Putler to rich fucks, all trying to get what they want out of him pulling whatever strings they have access to to pull on him.

The end result is...a shit show where (hopefully) nobody gets what they want because the break the system down so hard and fast that the backlash to them will be.... overwhelming

NTFS support on Linux has never been good, iirc it still mounts NTFS as read-only by default. You can remount it as R/W, but it isn't exactly recommended

If you absolutely want to share the steam library between windows and Linux, id recommend either a second disk formatted as exFAT or a new storage partition on the same disk formatted as exFAT

The key here is exFAT, one of the best options for cross-OS compatibility

Edit: @biofaust@lemmy.world I just saw your reply to someone else in the thread that your steam library is on a separate drive already

So that's perfect! Just move everything off it temporarily and format it with exFAT filesystem and you should be fine

no way to download photos to your phone, among many other flaws.

If you're on Android and are rooted you can pull it from the apps cache with Root Explorer

Edit: Actually...hm ill brb
