fair gull
as if the new ACs are good and anyone would care except the fanbois
fair gull
so if i show u a dumpster burning down 20 seconds quicker than another dumpster
ud take the fast burning one
cause ure comparing trash to other trash just on different drives
timid chasm
that's with the dx12 shaders though. Shit is super fast in dx11
fair gull
ya
pale sigil
i dont have issues with both on ssd
fair gull
so ur point is?
pale sigil
he rarely shows for ssds
fair gull
so?
timid chasm
Is it still a thing though? Last I played I don't remember seeing him
fair gull
i mean easy test let me fire up bl3
unless it got like 2PB of updates
wait actually
cant
didnt reinstall EGS
cause i couldnt be arsed
timid chasm
I won't lie I do hate that it takes games so long for transmog features
pale sigil
i feel bad for console players
on D2
2 min just to login
Im gussing you read the twab?
pale sigil
it had a transmog like feature before
however it was shit and just cash market items
Even the new system is prob going to be shit
The bright dust eco is terrible atm and will get worse
and if they only allow use of transmog via silver or bright dust its going to be awful
timid chasm
45s for me on BL3 from click to main screen with intros since I never disabled them
so apparently they did improve the shader thing because that shit used to take forever
fair gull
40s from hitting play in steam to staying on a planet in d2
pale sigil
LIEES
fair gull
i literally just tested it
pale sigil
nah im kidding.
fair gull
like the longest thing that happened was some cutscenes i havent watched
pale sigil
40s is quite fast
ish
loading into a plant usually takes around 2s for me
the main issue is dungeons
raids
strikes, crucible etc
activities
fair gull
thats enough d2 for the next year
pale sigil
i think ill play a little next season and probably just stop again till next expansion
even then i doubt ill play much more
D2 is a shitshow rn
wheat plume
ah yes, efficient object orientated code
wheat plume
idk what other information I would need to do to count as a "member type analysis" ;-;
timid chasm
I can tell you for certain I don't know what that means
wheat plume
I must do an analysis on the member types
there are 4 types of membership you can sign up as
and idk wtf to do for this
timid chasm
Those prices seem unfair to me
I guess it depends on the currency though so nevermind
wheat plume
prices dont matter its just placeholder info
my members are anime characters sooo yeh xd
but seriously, what else can I put into this analysis?
ashen spindle
so uh, either zen3 will work on b450 or MSI could potentially be facing a class action lawsuit lmao nice marketing job https://i.gyazo.com/7a391c45bfaa7e3a2369c8b69d91b931.png
wheat plume
genius .....
I made this harder for myself before realising its just needing to fill a datagrid -.- I had a a method to read a data reader and return each value
AGHHH
fair gull
at least ure in a reasonably high level language
wheat plume
I need to find a way to get the total money earned by each member type
rn , the value it shows is just the cost of the memebership type times the number of members in that type
which is fine unless the member has renewed their membership and paid again
so I need to find a way to get the total sum of all rewals from all members of the specified type using the members and renewals tables
all I have is the member's typeID not their memberID that is used in the renewals table
ashen spindle
and math
fair gull
meth
wheat plume
want my tables and see if you can help me?
fair gull
just draws a single pixel in a bitmap
currently only implementing some alpha blend modes
wheat plume
wow
ashen spindle
c# not doing it anymore for your bitmaps? :p
fair gull
na this is just a small exercise to get to know c better
and then move to develop xqemu
ashen spindle
c and not even cpp? eww
fair gull
lol cpp is worse than c with many things
only one of which is how cpp implements classes
i mean it works nicely
looks almost like abstract art ngl
wheat plume
looks like the Piet coding language
fair gull
i mean i got pretty far
need to move saving to a custom function
and maybe the entire memory freeing aswell
reef patrol
Mhmm.
wheat plume
Is there a way to check if a DataSet is empty without putting the table name into it
fair gull
use the android text editor
@wheat plume <DataSet>.Tables.Count
never need more than normal android text editor so /shrug
fair gull
i mean id personally use retroarch and a pi
cause way better support
ah yes so rather get some third world level support project
that will prob suck ass even more
id actually invest more into looking for a tegra based 1board computer
that fucker wouldnt draw more than the pi and shoot any of these small things out of the water
bruh the switch is tegra based
its prob the best retro gaming console for on the go and at home
retro arch runs beautifully
altho the tx1 jetson dev boards will cost more
iirc they are like 350 or so
im done with 1board pcs personally
id rather get a super small pc
that runs linux or smth
@reef patrol help
reef patrol
fair gull
please stop his madness of sff being dead
ashen spindle
sff is dead and mansen will be next 
reef patrol
I want a high powered SBC 😄
reef patrol
fair gull
and only suck 15watts
fair gull
and 100watt +
reef patrol
sLurp juice
fair gull
id still go for tegra boards mainly for actual cuda cores
reef patrol
Honestly just joking. I have all the PCs I need right now.
Got a Pi3b in a Snes case for old emu.
Got a Switch for handheld emu and such.
Got an Xbox OG for ... well Xbox OG games.
And I've got three PCs for gaming and NAS needs.
I am entitled af.
fair gull
i want to get a small machine that can do retro besides my switch
reef patrol
Also I sold my SFF LAN PC to pay for other stuff.
fair gull
fuck fpgas
halcyon moss
you can get complete intel nucs for that price O_o
fair gull
let him have his special thing thats not as good as other things for the price
old marlin
I can get 800gb SAS drives for 4 euros a piece 
fair gull
bruh where
wheat plume
guys
how TF does a regular expression work? I just found one to validate email addresses and it works but i want to know how
@"^(?("")("".+?(?<!\\)""@)|(([0-9a-z]((\.(?!\.))|[-
!#\$%&'\*\+/=\?\^`\{\}\|~\w])*)(?<=[0-9a-z])@))" +
@"(?(\[)(\[(\d{1,3}\.){3}\d{1,3}\])|(([0-9a-z][-\w]*[0-9a-z]*\.)+[a-z0-9][\-a-z0-
9]{0,22}[a-z0-9]))$", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase, TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(250))```
wheat plume
wat
crimson wigeon
regexps are dark sorcery
ashen spindle
click the link if you want to know how it works
wheat plume
I did
ashen spindle
you use what the examples show in the bottom to combine what you want to match, and can try it on the site too to figure it out
wheat plume
it just says / must be escaped
@"^(?("")("".+?(?<!\\)""@)|(([0-9a-z]((\.(?!\.))|[-!#\$%&'\*\+/=\?\^`\{\}\|~\w])*)(?<=[0-9a-z])@))" + @"(?(\[)(\[(\d{1,3}\.){3}\d{1,3}\])|(([0-9a-z][-\w]*[0-9a-z]*\.)+[a-z0-9][\-a-z0-9]{0,22}[a-z0-9]))$"
I pasted this regex im using into it
ashen spindle
yes it's not c#
so you need to escape stuff on the website, you use a verbatim string in your code so you dont need it tehre
wheat plume
wait......regex are language dependant??
ashen spindle
no.... strings are
ashen spindle
in short, you put the @ infront of the string in c#, the site cant do that
crimson wigeon
AI is all the rage nowadays, someone should make a thing that takes regular human text and turns it into a regexp
wheat plume
this is the code she gave us that im using
but im not using it as a method, I probably should so that the if statement isnt so damn long
crimson wigeon
Be cool and oneline it public bool validEmail(string inStr) => Regex.is.... something like that
ashen spindle
or just dont pay attention to length of if statements if you are new to a language...
ashen spindle
only ever used rubular so idk what other options are out there
wheat plume
did this instead
much nicer
wheat plume
its complaining not all code paths return a value ;-;
fair gull
and name it clearly
wheat plume
why it saying not all code paths return value
ashen spindle
...
crimson wigeon
Return should be return
fair gull
lOl
wheat plume
her notes suck....
timid chasm
KEYWORDS LANA
ashen spindle
it's literally marked red...
timid chasm
based on what you say alot of things about her sucks
wheat plume
now I need to test it
ashen spindle
yeah I'm not sure which ones are uppercase
wheat plume
all the function names are uppercase
like MessageBox.Show();
or Hide();
ashen spindle
...
fair gull
thats just microsoft naming
ashen spindle
thats not a c# keyword those are just function names yeah
wheat plume
oh
timid chasm
Lana I think you'd enjoy segfaults
wheat plume
wat those?
timid chasm
really fun debugging exercises /s
wheat plume
🤔
ashen spindle
is email a valid input?
wheat plume
no, its invalid, thats why I have this method
so it tells you its invalid and to try again
ashen spindle
... no not a valid email, a valid string
ashen spindle
well the regex should be fine
crimson wigeon
Clearly it isn't because that error means it's bad
ashen spindle
no I just tried it that strings works just fine
wheat plume
it works fine when I put it directly into my if statement
see
but I dont like this cause its too long of a line
crimson wigeon
Yeah it's a @ string and you're adding extra newlines to it
ashen spindle
it has nothing to do with the method
fair gull
no it works fine cause its 1line
ashen spindle
but with you breaking it up
wheat plume
o
fair gull
no split in the regex string
wheat plume
so in the method I need to keep it as one blig ass line too?
timid chasm
NO NEWLINES LANA
timid chasm
NO CARRIAGE RETURNS LANA
wheat plume
XDD
timid chasm
NO SLASH R OR SLASH N LANA
fair gull
NO LINEFEED LANA
timid chasm
is it R that windows does on new line? /r/n
fair gull
backslashes but yes
timid chasm
That was super annoying early on in programming. Wondering why the file worked linux to windows but not vice versa
yay dos2linux
unix w/e
fair gull
i mean idk why that regex is so complicated to being with
@timid chasm windows can display just the linefeed without carriage return
wheat plume
now idk if that + should be there
fair gull
it just defaults to also saving a CR
timid chasm
Well I didn't appreciate it my freshman year
crimson wigeon
Well yeah most software handle just a LF fine, but for the longest time things like notepad didn't
ashen spindle
yes that + has to be there
fair gull
well visual studio is prob complaining cause theres a plus and no line break
ashen spindle
mine is not complaining ¯_(ツ)_/¯
fair gull
ignore it prob just a style warning
ashen spindle
yeah the space is outside the string, that doesnt matter
and its not underlined for "some reason", it tells you what the reason is
fair gull
underlined doesnt mean broken
ashen spindle
ye
fair gull
red underline means broken
green/blue means could use better syntax
or well whatever microsoft claims is better
ashen spindle
use the mouse to hover over it and it tells you what it is..
wheat plume
oh...I forget the project is still running even if it crashes
I was editing the code while it was running still
fair gull
it didnt crash yet
wheat plume
it did, I showed you that error
fair gull
microsoft auto broke the debugger to show u the error with the current variables etc
ashen spindle
an actual crash would mean the program stopped
fair gull
not a crash the debugger encountered smth that would have crashed the program
its a feature of VS
wheat plume
the error happened but its still running since I have this option to stop it
ashen spindle
yes
fair gull
yes cause the software is just halted not crashed
pale sigil
F
wheat plume
ahh
ashen spindle
thats what debug mode is for, so you dont have everything crashing down all the time with no info
pale sigil
Debug is a lifeboat
ashen spindle
a lifeboat with champagne and a 70inch oled tv
wheat plume
:')
timid chasm
I had a professor that was talking to us once about how we can compile and run a program in no time, get the error, and then try again if we need to. Whereas when he started you had to compile the code before you went to lunch and hope it had finished by the time you were back, lol
fuck those days.
wheat plume
wow
wheat plume
this wont let me type in y or n even though those are meant to be the only valid characters in that textbox
ashen spindle
would those cases be catched by previous if blocks?
or, just set a breakpoint, and see what happens, what the value of the input is and what exactly goes on
wheat plume
no other else if checks this box
ashen spindle
you need to get used to using the debugger much much much much much much more
wheat plume
true ..
crimson wigeon
because you're ORing all those together, so if any of those statements are true then the whole thing is true
crimson wigeon
Well if it's "y" then != "n" is true
ashen spindle
^
wheat plume
ooh...
right
yeah -.-
FML
do I make the others && except the checks for y or n?
ashen spindle
you have a rocket launcher to kill a single ant but instead try to hit it with a pebble from a mile away is what you are doing by not using the debugger
wheat plume
crimson wigeon
Pah who needs debuggers just blast printf's all over the code
wheat plume
Pah who needs debuggers just blast printf's all over the code
@crimson wigeon thats what I do :') :'(
yeah...I realised it wont work
ashen spindle
the first checks are good you just need to change how it checks if its y or n
wheat plume
I could put that inside the else if maybe? make another check in therE?
ashen spindle
tip, round brackets also work in logic statements
or you can do it inside, same result
timid chasm
I assume this is part of a loop
wheat plume
yeah , one long list of if and else if checking all the text boxes
11 in total
and the else condition runs the code to update the member
wheat plume
not a loop indeed
timid chasm
I just see the checking for y and n when they're part of the if
wheat plume
wait...I dont need to check if there is more than one character cause I made the textbox not let you type any more than 1 character
Fuck it, im making this a combobox xd
probably should have done this since the start
wheat plume
I made it a combobox with only y and n as choices......why didnt I think of this shit earlier its so much easier to validate -.-
ashen spindle
wow, so apparently we have had a ReSharper license for a while now and due to home office I just didnt know it lmao
well time to get used to that now
wheat plume
ReSharper?
wheat plume
oooohh
lapis silo
who csn build mech keyboards?
pale sigil
i have but it didn't last long.
fair gull
as in design a complete custom pcb and stuff or just buy premade parts and solder together/assemble
lapis silo
litterally just put togethor
reef patrol
Been there done that a few times.
lapis silo
do you have any cheap ones you can sell to me lol?
reef patrol
Oh sweet summer child. DIY boards tend to be at least twice as expensive as your run of the mill gaming keyboard from Corsair or Razer 😄
My daily driver was around 270€
ashen spindle
still not the way if you want the cheap version
chrome estuary
yeah if you actually want a 60% kit and lose features for like 70 times the price
fair gull
@lapis silo cheap and mechanical keyboard kit dont go well together at all. always be prepared to spend like twice of what a razer/corsair/whatever gaming keyboard costs
ah shit mansen already replied
dammit
wheat plume
My data validation is probably 70% ready
fair gull
cant get good and cheap with mechanical keyboards especially diy kits
why immediately get a high end soldering station
theres actually quite good ones for 40-50usd
wheat plume
wow, your sarcasm self contains itself
fair gull
not really
i guess u mean self closing html tags
those have a / at the end tho like <div />
wheat plume
yes
timid chasm
That seems unlikely to me
at least in that form. But you can do MoCA for internet over coax
hoary dock
MoCA like coffee?
timid chasm
no like multimedia over coaxial alliance or something
I dunno what it stands for anymore
But you buy 2 MOCA adapters and attach them to each end of the coax one feeds the signal into the coax and the other converts it back to ethernet
and it works amazingly.
timid chasm
yes you can use deca too
I think some Gateways can put out a signal over coax but I'm not 100% on that
timber oxide
yea some gateways can if i remember correctly
timid chasm
I use these
And I use that upstairs to expand the wifi, they're fair for the price
The motorola adapters however are awesome and get me basically full speeds on gigabit
Oof
thats rough
Powerline adapters are sooooo bad in comparison
But I won't deny they serve a purpose still..for some
hoary dock
can I do tv and interwebs over the same coax?
timid chasm
Sometimes, I think. One of the types fucks with the signal but I can't remember if it's satellite or regular cable tv or what causes it
hoary dock
ok. thanks!
timid chasm
I think satellite TV has similar signals which causes issues
I think that is what the DECA adapters are for. They were made to be used with DirecTV I think
but, again, not entirely sure
timber oxide
satellite fucks with the signal
timid chasm
If you're not sure of how your coax is run I'd recommend using a coax tester too so you can find out where everything leads. We have coax in 4 rooms so that made it a lot easier for me to do before hand rather than plugging adapters and waiting to see if they worked or not
timber oxide
Other topic, someone has a Brand recommendation for Cloth Mousepads?

guys, i have an odd but specific request: does anyone know of any affordable, portable bluetooth buttons? i want to attach a button to my bluetooth headset so i can macro a PTT button to it
something like this but much, much cheaper: https://flic.io/
or is there a way to get say, a bluetooth selfie button to work?
say i got this thing for example, what are the chances of being able to connect it to my PC and how would i go about having my PC recognise the keypress / programming it?
that thing looks basically perfect, assuming i can hold the button down for PTT...
torpid monolith
I may be broke but I will drop 60 on a mouse pad so long as it cleans well and is smooth
If I feel even a tiny spec of dust then I get pretty annoyed
gritty junco
hard pads ain't for you then @torpid monolith

i know it's annoying feeling the odd bit of dirt under your hand on a cloth pad but the scratching sound that you just know is mangling your feet is agony every time...
I really should stop eating at my desk, it's always either salt or crumbs

Apple really still putting ddr3 ram in their 2020 MacBook "pro" laptops
Can't be very pro if it costs more than $1k and has 8gb ddr3 ram
sick creek
Are they? Didnt see any news on this
I dont think its possible given the type of cpus they are using
wheat plume
Yup ddr3
If you don't spec it out and upgrade the RAM
sick creek
What cpu
wheat plume
I think 8th gen i5 as base
sick creek
Ah i see. LPDDR3
Lp being low power
For extra battery life
I dont see that as an issue tbh, unless you care more about benchmarks than getting work done
wheat plume
Yeah.... But that price... And the fact it's 2020
gritty junco
DDR3 in 2020? 
old marlin
@gritty junco i think the cheapest you'll get is getting an amazon dash button
Those can be used for other stuff
sick creek
¯_(ツ)_/¯
So i looked at the spec sheet for the cpu it would use
And they would only be able to use ddr4 2400 anyway (apple doesnt use OC memory or boost clocks on their laptops)
old marlin
Lol
sick creek
So LPDDR3 at 2133 and using less power for nearly the same performance is worth the better batt life
sick creek
It can be, but 2133 on both would be negligible difference. There are a lot of other factors. Given that the cpu supports either type of memory means to me that ddr4 would not perform that much better as it’s crippled
Unlikely there will ever be good benches tho, cause we’d have to have apple make the same laptop with ddr4 and we know they wont
But the 16” has 9th gen which, without looking it up, i think doesnt support LPDDR3
Tbh i think its a good trade off considering the size, weight, battery life, etc
Y’all aint buying macs anyway so who cares LOL

one of my classes is exactly 69 lines of code long

for an OS called "Windows", it has really poor window management
you can hold down the windows key and drag anywhere on the window to move or resize it, there are no other effects to make moving it easier like sliding it off the edge of the screen to move the window to the other desktop or things like that
red oyster
You said that resizing like it's possible
and I was about to go "wait what!?" but it doesn't work
red oyster
You have build up my hope and then crushed it mercilessly
wheat plume
XD
red oyster
also moving a window to another desktop is atually a shortcut?
wheat plume
Dear Windows 10
All I want to do is see battery perctentage on the
taskbar beside the battery icon
Lana
reef patrol
Windows (10) has TERRIBLE window management.
reef patrol
I keep having to drag windows around to make them fit
red oyster
Which is useful if the window is like out of bounds
wheat plume
so many times ive had windows open with their titlebars UNDER THE TASKBAR
wheat plume
and I cant do anything to move them beside maximise with shortcuts and then resize
red oyster
yeah Window+left Window+right window+down is useful for that
wheat plume
I just got powertoys
ashen spindle
well that sounds like an issue yuou only get with taskbar at the top :^)
wheat plume
idk how to make fancyzones work
red oyster
taskbar top masterrace
wheat plume
cries in single monitor
red oyster
I just cannot survive single monitor anymore
It's so annoying if I wanna like play games or smth
red oyster
I mean my problem is fullscreen
wheat plume
yeah ...same here
and for web development too
Id like to have my code on one screen and my browser with the site on the other
old marlin
taskbar top and taskbar bottom makes no difference though
I'd do side but it sucks with multi monoitor
wheat plume
Taskbar on the left master race
I would do that but the cate/time doesnt shrink
so on the sides the taskbar is too wide
wheat plume
like here the date goes away to make the taskbar thinner
but not on the sides -.-
isnt that layout called Master and Stack in tiling window managers?
red oyster
You know I sometimes Acutally have the problem where my monitors are too big
It only happens at work and maybe it's just cause me small or smth
but it can be quite annoying
Yeah those are pretty lame
That should just be default in windows as an option not like it's anything special
Why can't windows just work like screen in the terminal
I mean that'd still allow you to have 2 windows by eachother
wheat plume
I know so many people who dont know what taskbar is
red oyster
Like it just recognizes the border of a window that has snapped
as a new "border" you can split things vertically or horizontal on
wheat plume
or that the OS they are using is called Windows, they just said to me what is an OS?
red oyster
That'd be pretty nice already
Not like vertical splitting actually exists in the first plac though
hoary dock
@wheat plume which nvidia driver should I install with Manjaro?
wheat plume
@wheat plume which nvidia driver should I install with Manjaro?
@hoary dock it installs them for you
red oyster
sell your soul to the proprietary ones
I had an issue with that once
Where it kept breaking and my screen was really glitched
hoary dock
I am having micro-stutters
red oyster
The solution was deleting all my drivers
hoary dock
and that is annoying
wheat plume
ive never seen that issue
red oyster
wheat plume
I am having micro-stutters
@hoary dock you on 440?
hoary dock
me on video-linux
wheat plume
but why? it installs them for you automatically
hoary dock
I thought it did
wheat plume
im guessing you didnt change to non free drivers on that boot menu
hoary dock
I should change to 440 right?
hoary dock
You can still change them
@red oyster that I know
wheat plume
440 is nice
wheat plume
yeah...open the manjaro settings
you can install them there
red oyster
the worst that can happen is your entire system bricking itself
wheat plume
welp
red oyster
red oyster
You can also just be unlucky like a friend I know
hoary dock
so there is not that much stuff on it
wheat plume
the only issues I ever had with nvidia drivers was when I tried to manually upgrade them
it didnt go well
red oyster
which always has really weird issues with every single operating system
Like they use windows, random page errors..
use manjaro, screen freezes constantly
wheat plume
🤔
wheat plume
wtf
red oyster
It's magical
hoary dock
maybe some part of his pc is just bröken
wheat plume
my friend is kind of like that
he dual boots windows + Linux and he has a lot of drives on his PC to store games and shit
and itll all work well for about a month then suddenly one or two of his drives just get totally wiped
red oyster
Yea
wheat plume
for no reason
red oyster
rip
wheat plume
even the OS is gone
hoary dock
my friend is kind of like that
he dual boots windows + Linux and he has a lot of drives on his PC to store games and shitand itll all work well for about a month then suddenly one or two of his drives just get totally wiped
@wheat plume pls no happerino to me
red oyster
I had dual boot for quite a while without problem but it really seems useless
I feel like either just going linux or windows with vm is more reasonable
hoary dock
wheat plume
he is in the same situation as me
he cant fully switch to Linux because we need this software for one single project in college -.-
oh wow
hoary dock
he is in the same situation as me
he cant fully switch to Linux because we need this software for one single project in college -.-
@wheat plume for that I have this
Remmina to my WinServer
wheat plume
oooohhh
ashen spindle
solution: stick to windows
wheat plume
e
w
id rather die
I cant wait for the day I can nuke windows from this laptop
is poor gurl
no can do
ive got laptop and computer
and a single drive in each
so dual booting on a single drive is a no no for me
red oyster
Windows works fine
wheat plume
it works fine but its meh overall for me
hoary dock
now that I have it installed I should uninstall the other one?
wheat plume
300 is a lot of money
now that I have it installed I should uninstall the other one?
@hoary dock not sure
I can go see what it says on my computer if you want
i have 440 installed
^^
hoary dock
I am just going to reboot
wheat plume
my friend got a new laptop last year for 400
it came with 4GB ram, intel pentium gold and windows 10 S
-.-
red oyster
nice
wheat plume
so we didnt want to deal with 10 S
so we wiped it and "downloaded" a copy of windows 10
wheat plume
yeah but it begs you to activate it and he doesnt have a license key
that shit still works?
wow

it is black now except for my main monitor

Actually I think sometimes it resets it or something
if the monitor config changes too much
wheat plume

Real talk. Does anyone know how to get wallpapers that are gifs or gif like?

But mine is made up of aluminum

@wheat plume I'm pulling your leg with the engine comment, thanks for the advice.
red oyster
Wallpaper engine definitely works
You can even make your own stuff cause it like accepts html pages
wheat plume
I miss wallpaper engine ;-; they need to make a Linux version
torpid monolith
Damns
wheat plume
my CPU spikes to 50% when I move a window around on Linux
red oyster
Download more ram
Download more CPU Speed
Then my fractal clock is no problem
I mean I made that html page myself so it was downloaded
wheat plume
spikes to 20% when its just the cursor I move
red oyster
That seems not normal
wheat plume
honestly, it macbook laptops didnt throttle when you try to get work done...id be interested in buying one cause I really like MacOS
red oyster
nas with freenas or whatever that bsd one was called
wheat plume
macOS = the pretty nice OS severly limited by the hardware its on
cause it really can be smooth and powerful but not on Apple hardware cause they throttle TF out of it when the fans should be active
imma get wallpaper engine again
red oyster
Good on you
wheat plume
and RIP my cpu
ashen spindle
or maybe a bit less efficient 
wheat plume
huh?
red oyster
A fractal clock
wheat plume
handles that are drawn on the handles?
wheat plume
ooooh
wheat plume

wheat plume
?
red oyster

idk wtf that means

Gimme 3 dollar for WE@wheat plume
wheat plume
oo
Gimme 3 dollar for WE@wheat plume
@torpid monolith or switch to Linux and use Plasma desktop and install the desktop extension to get video wallpaper
wheat plume
aw
4.1GB downloaded so far
my wifi is fast today :D
my keyboard has scroll lock
my other board did xd
red oyster
It's not ctually that bad
takes like 1% to run even when open
WE is ok
idk hwo I managed 50% wiht my html guess it was just too good
red oyster
I mean the fractal means it has to draw that thing.. 15k times or so?
however many I wanted x3
And that was not.. very eh efficient code
red oyster
I like how it somehow launched in such a way that steam doesn't say it is running
Good stuff

@wheat plume 440 was the right call but I still wonder why it didnt install it by default
wheat plume
@wheat plume 440 was the right call but I still wonder why it didnt install it by default
@hoary dock I think you may not have selected "non-free" drivers on the boot menu that shows up when you load from USB
that screen where you select time zone and keyboard layout
hoary dock
Perhaps
wheat plume
I think so
Ive always gotten the drivers installed selecting non free
Ah yes, 8 calls to my validation method for text boxes
wonderful
3 to my email validation code
I wish all code editors showed you exactly what is calling each method like VS Studio does
I can just double click one of them to go to that line

japanese ads
ashen spindle
yes you are missing out, you also don't know the best ad ever, rügenwalder teewurst
fair gull
those are like dayum

I feel like all the old "banned" ads you'd find back in the day were german
wheat plume
oh hell yeah they are :')
timid chasm
and they were all pretty funny
ashen spindle
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cCRzyMNE3s you dont even need to know german to "understand" this
fair gull
xD
split cipher
trust me, the most ads here is shit too xd
ashen spindle
rügenwalder on the other hand is not something you understand as a non german speaker
fair gull
ashen spindle
ALLE!

ill take your entire stock
ashen spindle
basically
fair gull
ya its the ill take your entire stock meme before it even existed
we germans invented it
like everything else
ashen spindle
ofc we did
wheat plume
a linux youtuber replied to my comment about you can download a nvidia version of Pop OS from its download page and they just replied, its not obvious you can download that version -.-
IT COUDNT BE ANY MORE OBVIOUS
ashen spindle
it's efficient to own the entire stock so ofc we first did that
your mistake was to partake in youtube comments
ashen spindle
the weirdest one I know is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Of-HU6p9sT4

orchid silo
How do you get the newest version of Wootility?
wheat plume
#archived_wootility_beta_feedback I assume if you wxant the beta
orchid silo
Aha, thought it was a main release
reef patrol
The announcement does point out pretty clearly it's a beta 😄
orchid silo
Haha, yea, just saw that 😅
I just assumed betas was announced in the beta channel and totally blind sided that top row in the announcement ^^
halcyon moss
I did not like it either.
fair gull
bruh unity powers many many games

I liked the global menu and HUD
And the fact the titlebars came off in fullscreen
So you have maximum space
This is cool

ashen spindle
rip xbox btw notice how they only mention it running on ps5?
fair gull
notice how the water physics are still shit
ashen spindle
well nothing about it got an update so sure
sure but they dont have any more info on it
ashen spindle
its impressive how much advantage it takes of the ps5 ssd
old marlin
I mena it IS impressive
but either not AS performant atm as I'd wish or the PS5 is just not good enough
ashen spindle
I mean its like a year before release, it aint done yet
they said to upgrade fortnite to it next year, so it will be mobile too
makes no sense to drop support for something you are just now getting more share int
latent mural
@ashen spindle wtf
ashen spindle

ashen spindle
its not random, part of the summer game fest
thats why the tony hawk remake was announced yesterday
pale sigil
Unreal engine is poop
ashen spindle
go away with your fanboy talk
ashen spindle
so you dont like what people do with it and not the engine itself
pale sigil
I guess so
latent mural
@ashen spindle everything i read suggested most analysts thought there would be no UE5 but UE4 would become perpetual like windows 10
old marlin
And done like ue
pale sigil
Unity can be good but most of the time it produces poop
ashen spindle
I mean this is basically UE4 with just some bigger changes
latent mural
And yes announcing a UE5 in a blog instead of a major gaming convention is very random
pale sigil
I’m also kinda sick of mmos using unreal
ashen spindle
but it wasnt announced on a blog but a livestream event...
latent mural
@ashen spindle ummm no. If it was basically UE4 they would keep it UE4.
ashen spindle
its literally a marketing/legal reason
latent mural
there has to be a major leap in technology for them to release a new engine just like when they went from Unreal Engine 3 to 4
crimson wigeon
I haven't looked does it have that amazing lighting system that was dropped from UE4 because of consoles being unable to handle it
ashen spindle
ue3 is not open source is one of the biggest reasons it was a switch to a fully new version, not the tech
it has a new light system yes
ashen spindle
you can play it the way it is on ps5 dev kit
latent mural
UE3 is not open source
ashen spindle
yes that was my point, ue3 not being open source
pale sigil
Was gonna say dev kit only
latent mural
UE4 is not open source
latent mural
not according to the license agreement
ashen spindle
are you now trying to argue it's not FOSS? yes I never said it was
crimson wigeon
Yeah it's probably better to call it something like shared source
pale sigil
Tbh I don’t see unreal being used by most AAA devs more than say UE4 was.
Especially next gen
ashen spindle
????
pale sigil
Sony deffo wouldn’t
ashen spindle
this is literally a selling point for ps5
did you even read/watch any of it or are you just here to tell us you dont like unreal
pale sigil
I’m still watching it
latent mural
I don't know what Epic stand to gain with UE5 why they have now announced it is a mystery.
pale sigil
I’m just saying I don’t think peeps like Sony will use it for their exclusives
All of them
ashen spindle
this is why they announced it https://twitter.com/summergamefest

"Summer Games Fest" - Lmfao. That's a tiny little thing hardly anyone has even heard of...
pale sigil
Damn the final scene of the demo was dope
ashen spindle
yes because this year is literally the first time it happens, from the guy who made and hosted the game awards and an E3 show, but sure, tiny thing

yes tiny... 58k followers

account made in april 2020 btw

no i'm judging it compared to PAX, E3 and Gamescom which are well known conventions. I did not hear of "Summer Game Fest" before and i am studying for a career in game dev!
pale sigil
I’m not a huge fan of the one dude taking over the gaming event industry tho lol
ashen spindle
because it's as I said the very first iteration of it, not a local event that is around for 10+ years...
