@GyrosGeier I've been fiddling with this on and off for a week now, and I'm very close to concluding that you absolutely cannot avoid Gradle once your project uses the androidx.* libraries. 😑 Never seen a worse case of dependency hell 😱

@loechti @abulling oh nice, thanks! (and actually from one of our AAU colleagues no less 👍)

@abulling Ooh, interesting question - no idea TBH, but that would make a lot of sense 👍

Hah, just figured out that the 😵‍💫 emoji is actually a sort of ligature from 😵 and 💫, with (I'm guessing) the infamous zero-width joiner in between?

@weirdunits sounds like an interesting liquor 🤔

@admin @maschinenraum Great, thanks - let me know if there's any news!

@admin any chance you'll be enabling sign-ups at your instance again soon? Have a friend from Weimar who'd like to create an account...

@SpaetzleGrab Na danke. 😑😜

@abulling *slow clap* 👏🙄

Chuck Norris actually died last year, Death first needed to work up the courage to tell him.

@Strandjunker I do wonder who'd be dumb enough to play the stooge for the likes of him, though. 🤔

For the last 10 minutes, Gemini has just been stuck in a loop of deleting the whole .idea folder and running "gradlew help". Kudos, Gradle, you have managed to drive the AI insane 👌

@jeppe @keepandroidopen On top, the verification "AI" seems incapable of understanding Danish yellow cards. I could only get verified after several attempts when I used my ancient German driver's licence. 🙄

@aeva yeehaw.

P.P.S. The victory for Gemini did not last, one Android Studio restart later, we're back to inscrutable "Gradle project sync failed" errors. 🙄 This stack is so fragile you can't even look at it wrong. Next step is probably sacrificing a black rooster over the build configuration or something 👿

@brett curious to know as well, I've occasionally used one but never got the hang of it 🤔

@SmudgeTheInsultCat I'm in this post and I don't like it. 😑😉

@GhostOnTheHalfShell "pumpkin spice Palpatine" nearly had me snort out my morning coffee, kudos 👌

@rygorous @lritter the kid recently summarised the entire Greek mythology in one sentence: "Sadly, Zeus couldn't keep it in his pants." 🤷

@thomasfuchs something something Soviet Russia 🪆
