white oxide
#

but no one checks how many we have other than the day we order more

#

pretty much

#

and the only thing that saved his ass was he was a solid cashier, and we were understaffed

#

I was actively looking and training another cashier to toss his ass out

#

what sealed the deal was when he stole a $35 pizza

#

so you know LC does deep dish right?

#

and even during the $5 era they were like $8

mild gust
#

I remember

#

Now they do a ICB deep dish combo

white oxide
#

now imagine how much peperoni you need on a deep dish to make it cost $45

#

oh they have had those for years

mild gust
#

Enough to go to the hospital?

white oxide
#

was the "lunch combo"

#

just only sold it during 11am to 2pm at the time

#

but this dude does the "oh i forgot my wallet" after he already made it and put it through the oven

#

which means we cant like sell it

#

cause its ultra custom

#

but it wasnt the "forgot my wallet"

#

we could have taken it out of his paycheck

#

it was the fact that he was actively trying to hide it from me, and lying to my face about it

#

then pulling the "whelp dont have money"

white oxide
#

so, I let him take it, and the soda he pulled out of the fridge

#

and the SECOND he walked out of the door, I deleted his fingerprint from the login/clock in system and filed him as terminated for cause

#

so, the next time he came in, he couldnt clock in

#

and i knew he was working the next day

#

so i waited, for him to come in, knowing he was going to be late to avoid me

white oxide
#

he complained to the GM about not being able to clock in

#

obviously the GM knew what went down

#

and she told him "hawk is manager on duty, go talk to hjm"

white oxide
#

so, i waited right by everyone else

#

so he couldnt just talk in private

#

so i explained why he was fired, that we not only knew about him stealing sodas, but that we actually had video footage of it

#

he had stolen amost 900 dollars worth of stuff over 4 months

#

that we had video proof of

mild gust
#

Damn

white oxide
#

so, I told him he wasnt working here, and that id be nice to not report him

white oxide
#

but this kid obviously was waiting for parents to pick him up (he worked after school which was a block away)

#

so he just sat in the lobby

#

ok, maybe mom or dad cant pick him up right away right?

#

well

#

the next 3 days, he came in like he would for a shift, and sat in the lobby until about 20 minutes before normal pickup

#

and changed into his work clothes

#

I obviously knew what he was doing

#

hadnt told his parents he got fired

#

day 4? i expected him to come in

mild gust
#

Just folding a roll

#

Wait he kept the uniform?

white oxide
#

yeah, he technically paid for it out of his paycheck

#

and these uniforms get so trashed after like the first 2 weeks

#

we cant re-use them

#

flour, dough, lard, butters, everything in that place ends up on the uniform

#

so day 4

#

i asked some officers i knew (i knew their kids from highschool, and they were regular customers cause i gave them the employee discount) to stop by

mild gust
#

I feel lucky every place I've ever worked payed for or refunded me for my uniforms lol

white oxide
#

yeah

#

we usually refunded if you gave 2 week

mild gust
#

One place I had $900 in uniforms ๐Ÿ˜‚

white oxide
#

if you dont show up and just ghost us, we keep it

mild gust
#

Because I'd forget them all the time

white oxide
#

they were there waiting, called his mom and dad to come down to the store, and of course they did

#

so mom and dad show up, but kid didnt know the cops were waiting until they and his parents walk in

#

hes out of uniform, sitting in the front lobby, on his phone

#

so, i take them into the "office" space (really its just the store room with a stoll and the main computer + security camera feeds)

mild gust
#

Be like your kids a thief!

white oxide
#

and i show all 5 of them the various video feeds, the paperwork written up on the theft

#

clear proof

mild gust
#

Do they deny it?

white oxide
#

kid tried to explain it away

#

cops wouldnt have it period

#

see in our town $800+ in stolen goods is felony level

mild gust
#

Yup

white oxide
#

and you can be charged as an adult at 16

mild gust
#

Anything over 500 is usually

white oxide
#

so the cops explained this, to him and his parents

#

and explained that at this time, no charges would be filed

#

I specifically told them they wouldnt cause i didnt want to ruin this kids career and the GM was backing me up on this

#

its his first job

#

felony for theft at a job is a life ruiner

#

especially on your first job

#

not to mention likely getting expelled

mild gust
#

If he learns it was a good choice

white oxide
#

he didnt

#

but the officers explained that he is no longer welcome, and is instead of a felony, getting a trespassing charge (wont even sit on his record of a 16 year old)

#

that he would get no record, just like 60 hours community service

#

the stipulation of not pressing the felony charges was that he never stepped foot in the store again

mild gust
#

What a maroon

white oxide
#

if he did anytime in the next 4 years (statute of limitations for felony theft here) he would get charged with it and the tresspassing as an adult

#

obviously parents were super damned grateful for this option

#

and super fucking pissed at him

#

you could hear the shouting from inside the store while they were in the parking lot

#

so yeah

#

obviously the staff heard all this go down

#

and yeah no thefts or issues the rest of the time i was there

#

tbh i liked the job

#

just took way too damned long to fire the other assistant GM

#

now there was a basket case

#

wanna hear it?

mild gust
#

Sure

white oxide
#

so she was committing clock fraud

#

showing up 2 hours before open

mild gust
#

I don't have any really wild stories tbh aside from servers or dishwashers eating off peoples plates.

white oxide
#

we as managers are only supposed to show up like an hour early

#

cause we have to unlock everything, power up the computers and log them in

mild gust
#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

#

Sometimes I go in 15 mins early

white oxide
#

but she would also wander around totally out of uniform

mild gust
#

But we also write down hours lol

white oxide
#

pajama bottoms, socks, and tank top

mild gust
#

Wtf

white oxide
#

no shoes, just socks

mild gust
#

While being around food n stuff

white oxide
#

and its not like we couldnt see in the front window

#

so it looked wild and unprofessional

#

yep

#

and she would spend the first hour on the clock and just dancing around

#

and she was beyond unprofessional

#

she was a manager and sleeping with like a third of the male workers

mild gust
#

Gross

white oxide
#

yeah

#

tbh that was only found out when i started firing the unproductives

#

cause they complained to her

#

and she complained to the GM

#

I got promoted because i was the most reliable employee there

#

i always showed up early, would always come in when help was needed, all that

mild gust
#

Now you get to hangout with 5 cats!

white oxide
#

3 now really but yeah

mild gust
#

Oh

white oxide
#

i gave 2 to dad

mild gust
#

I thought I saw 5 at some point

#

Ah

white oxide
#

though he doesnt really know it yet

mild gust
#

That makes sense

#

Lol what

#

So they just hangout on his land?

white oxide
#

i put them in his garage

mild gust
#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

white oxide
#

i mean its across the drive way

mild gust
#

What about food, litter

soft night
#

marshall new house is consistent?

white oxide
#

they have water

#

if they need litter, theres tons of soft dirt around trees and in the garden

#

and if they need water? theres tons of it in bowls for random animals and as bird baths

#

and if they need to hide, theres tons of nooks and crannies for kittens to get lost in hiding from anything that could eat them

white oxide
#

what?

#

its better than beck to the shelter

white oxide
#

what

white oxide
#

when dad finds 2 kittens, hes either going to accept them as rodent solution, or he will find them a solid home

#

and he knows more people

#

including a friend whose cats recently died

echo mulch
#

Best scenario they become friends with the mice, you adopt the mice, the mice become bug guardians.

white oxide
#

lol

#

best scenario, dads friend gets 2 kittens for free and they go to a good home

#

hes a solid guy

#

retired, small social group

#

kittens would kinda be perfect

white oxide
#

pretty much what my orange looks like

#

i can also tell he's looking for those siblings

#

keeps calling out and going to that cat cave they used to hide in

white oxide
#

its this big wool thing i bought for the last cat

white oxide
#

these enclosed play pens cant get here fast enough

#

stick him in one for a bit

white oxide
#

tbh that seems less annoying than this kitten is

#

tbh forgot how much damned work a kitten is

@mild gust ahhhhhhh

Not very noticeable on camera but

mild gust

I see shimmer

errant raven
#

I cant fuckin wait man

mild gust
#

You grow all outdoors?

#

or move inside sometimes

errant raven
#

All the green pods I ate from that plant have been so juicy and hot

mild gust
#

Protect from "birbs"

errant raven
#

I start them indoors and as soon as emergence happens I move them outdoors

#

I move them indoors when they're still seedlings, because damp off threats

#

But once their 6-7 true leave sets they're fine. Unless it's really windy

#

I'm not sure if I tamed the crows that hangout out there by throwing them the bad pods, or the pods I take off to test and throw out. But I havent had any issues with birds at all so, probably.

mild gust
#

Nice

#

No need for scarecrows then

errant raven
#

Does c++ have void pointers

mild gust
#

I hope so

errant raven
#

Been watching that low level guy on youtube, who teaches C and other low level stuff. Tried to get chatgpt to teach me, but always gives convoluted bs

#

Always just end up asking to be linked off to the documentations

errant raven
#

All I managed to grasp about void pointers is they can point to any type

#

But the rest is unknown

#

Aside from not being able to be redeclared

#

I barely paid attention, as usual

mild gust
#

Why would you void a pointer?

errant raven
#

That's what I ask chat gippity

#

Ran out of tokens

#

So couldn't get a response

mild gust
#

In C++, when you use a void pointer, it's a pointer that can point to any data type, but you don't know or specify the type of data it points to at the time of declaration. A void pointer is typically used for generic functions that can handle different types of data.

The reason for using a void pointer is when you need to pass or store a pointer to any data type, but you don't want to restrict it to a specific type. However, to dereference or use a void pointer, you must first cast it to the appropriate type.

Here is an example to illustrate how and why you would use a void pointer:

Example
Let's say you're implementing a function that can take different types of data and print their value.

#
#include <iostream>

void printData(void* ptr, char type) {
    if (type == 'i') {
        int* intPtr = (int*)ptr;  // Cast void* to int*
        std::cout << "Integer: " << *intPtr << std::endl;
    } else if (type == 'f') {
        float* floatPtr = (float*)ptr;  // Cast void* to float*
        std::cout << "Float: " << *floatPtr << std::endl;
    }
}

int main() {
    int x = 10;
    float y = 3.14;

    // Pass void pointers to the function
    printData((void*)&x, 'i');  // Print integer
    printData((void*)&y, 'f');  // Print float

    return 0;
}
#

Explanation:

  • The function printData uses a void* pointer to take any type of data.

  • The second argument, type, is used to tell the function what type the pointer actually points to (since the void* itself doesn't contain type information).

  • Inside the function, the void* is cast to the correct type (in this case, int* or float*), and then dereferenced to get the value.

Why Use a void*?

  • Flexibility: void* provides a way to write generic code that can handle any type of data.

  • Memory Manipulation: It can be useful in low-level programming or when dealing with structures where the type might not be known at compile-time.

  • Interfaces: For functions that need to deal with different types of data, using a void* allows you to write functions that can handle any pointer type passed to them.

However, using void* can make code harder to maintain and prone to errors, as it disables type checking. So it should be used cautiously and only when necessary.

#

DW I asked chatgpt I got premium last night to assist me with some excel spreadsheets

#

Then it generated them using python

errant raven
#

Apparently I have been soaking in information about C

#

Just not realizing it

mild gust
#

Just gotta keep using it

errant raven
#

In one of his videos he asked to guess what the output of this code would be:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int x = 1337;
    while(x--) {
        printf("ayo\n");
    }
    return 0;
}

Just assumed itd print ayo 1337 times.

#

But it doesn't

#

Only prints it 1336 times

#

I was right enough, eat my ass

#

Dont know why I'm even watching C videos. I have no use for it

#

Finding a good free channel that is not an old man using big words I dont know, or isn't some indian guy with video quality locked to 144p or 240p is hard

mild gust
#

Why

errant raven
#

Because of YouTube's new fuckin algorithm bullshit

#

All I get for results is that shit, and a ton of shorts showing off a little snippet of c++. Nothing at all to what I searched

#

I dont want an 8 hour long video, or a 1 hour video that only covers the basics of the basics, intermediate and advanced toolsets for the language.

#

I want individual videos for each method so it can be indepth

mild gust
#

I prefer when they break concepts into chunks

errant raven
#

What's the point of the video if I have to pull of the documentations anyways

mild gust
#

Stephen Ulibarri does it well in his courses

errant raven
#

Just because they just wanna tell you the basics

#

It's sad I've been using python for as long as I have and still barely understand lambda functions

#

For an example ^

mild gust
#

Chatgpt has a vm built in now

#

This "Agent" mode or w.e

errant raven
#

Gpt is great for having multiple conversations that auto title themselves based off the first question asked

#

It's the only form of actual organization I got, and its automatic

mild gust
#

It just stole some ideas from Unity

#

I'm in love

errant raven
#

Gotta be pretty damn dumber than I to not abuse that

mild gust
#

Ai stealing from ai

#

That stole from Unity

errant raven
#

My list of things to learn ever grows

mild gust
#

Same

#

I can't find where the reelmind ai got that write up though

#

Now it's bothering me

#

Did it just make all that shit up

#

or did it steal it from somewhere else ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

errant raven
#

Lua, c#, c++, hlsl, json, glsl, how ram, gpu, storage, cpu works internally and how they communicate together

#

So much shit

#

What for

#

To still be dogshit at what I wanna do

#

But being better at it than piratesoftware is a nice goal

mild gust
#

You look at the sources at the bottom of the page

#

It's all gobbledegook

errant raven
#

I can always give up and be one of those losers that do nothing but rasp pi builds

#

But with those boards that use python instead of c++

mild gust
#

Those cost $

errant raven
#

I take that back, tech with Tim has c++ vids like I wanted. The man who taught me python

#

Moneys no issue

#

Is it illegal to make a bot that automates filling out online job applications for you

#

No way in hell I'm doing it manually

#

He said the best way to learn was to teach. So @mild gust be my student

#

I will teach you c++. So I can learn c++

mild gust
#

lol what

#

How does one teach how to ride a bike if they are learning themselves

errant raven
#

I'm just following the learn cpp video. Dont make it difficult

mild gust
#

I'm watching 100 AI argue about god rn

errant raven
#

Keep this behavior up and I'll have no choice but to give you an F- and a wordy phonecall to your parents

mild gust
#

Good

#

I was an avid school skipper

errant raven
#

So I was i

#

I regret it now

mild gust
#

I regret failing

#

Otherwise meh

#

I learnt more out of school

errant raven
#

I weirdly never failed a grade

#

I always passed with bare minimum

#

And it wasnt even on purpose

#

I was just that intellectually dumb

#

Why is compiling and running c++ the first video tho

mild gust
#

Question is why not

errant raven
#

True true

mild gust
#

Learn how to make it go vroom

errant raven
#

I struggled greatly with compiling

mild gust
#

I'd say that's useful

errant raven
#

Use cmake they said

#

It's easier they said

mild gust
errant raven
#

Typing it out in console was wasier

#

I still have zero idea how to use cmake outside of terminal

mild gust
#

I got my agent stuck in a loop asking it about 80+ animals

#

Now it's just doing non-stop research

#

Searching stuff like eagles diving at prey at 100mph

errant raven
#

I converted my brainfuck program to ook! And sent it to chatgpt. Chatgpt broke and kept flooding the 8 Ook commands

#

I wonder if itd happen again or was a one time fluke

mild gust
#

Do it again

#

Also other day my chat gpt told me I hit my limit

#

Then I used it 4 more times

#

Before it finally stopped

errant raven
mild gust
#

It's finally moved onto mammals

#

Progress!

errant raven
#

Ai has a hard time decoding Ook back into brainfuck

mild gust
#

Probably

errant raven
#

It decodes, they just default to it printing hello world instead of what it actually prints out

mild gust
#

Makes sense why I couldnt update fsr with it

errant raven
#

It sucks even more with lolcode

#

I have a library card. Do you know any books that are worth picking up for game dev or c++, or low level shit in general

errant raven
#

Welp I have a C/c++ ide and compiler on my phone

mild gust
#

But can it run UE5

errant raven
#

No

#

And it says c/c++ but it's only giving me libraries for C

mild gust
#

lol

errant raven
#

Gimme a quick cpp function to print something to see if it let's me run c++

mild gust
#

Why

errant raven
#

Nvm it runs

mild gust
#
#include <iostream>

// Function to print a message
void printMessage() {
    std::cout << "Hello, world!" << std::endl;
}

int main() {
    // Call the function to print the message
    printMessage();
    return 0;
}
errant raven
#

It runs both wtf

#

Syntax highlighting for both too

#

Same dev who made the pydroid3 app

#

Of course sfml would be locked behind a paywall..

#

My gut tells me that that will endlessly run until my device crashes

#

But fuck it

#

We ball

mild gust
#

It's onto the Toucan now

errant raven
#

4 errors. Man I'm glad I never asked you for help in anything. Gosh, now I have fix somencode I know is gonna do some bullshit 43 billion times. It was my fault, not yours

#

It printed hello world. Which is weird

#

You did all that just for hello world????

#

This is amazing, now I wanna brute force learning just to put my phone through hell

#

Idk who's idea it was to allow access to sdl2 but thank you

#

Where was it at when I needed kivy for python

#

Just use brainfuck ponkkis

Why 3D graphics lib have to be locked behind a 15.40$ paywall man

mild gust
#

Because they love you

errant raven
#

Sfml is fuckin free. Why they forcing you to pay for something somebody else made

mild gust
#

Also because you will own nothing and still be happy

#

That's life in the 20th century

white oxide
#

i mean is it something similar to buying unreal assets cause if so then its not really an issue

#

if its something that makes it freemium... then yeah maybe issue

errant raven
#

Sfml is free on desktop/laptop

mild gust
white oxide

but is the graphics lib made by sfml or a 3rd party not fully affiliated?

Why does compiling hate me so fucking much for

white oxide
#

because of the corn

Okay it isn't my fault

mild gust
#

Well it is

errant raven
#

Cxxdroid only compiles the file you're running

mild gust
#

You gotta praise more

errant raven
#

And I need json11.cpp to be compiled with it

#

Which it wont do

#

And I cant tell it too

#

So it wont

#

I have to upgrade to PrEmIuM to use basic shit

#

It also didnt have a json support lib in the package manager tab :/ had to manually grab an hpp and its cpp file from github :///

#

I'll try CxStudio and see how that app goes

  1. OpenGL ES (for Mobile Development)
    No Root Required: OpenGL ES is built into both Android and iOS systems, so you do not need to root or jailbreak your phone to use it.

Development Setup: You can write and compile OpenGL ES code using code editors and mobile IDEs. However, you will need access to tools for compiling the code (either through a cloud-based solution or mobile app).

For Android: AIDE (Android IDE) is a popular app that allows you to develop Java and C++ code on Android devices. For OpenGL ES, you'll typically use Android NDK (Native Development Kit) to write C++ code and handle OpenGL calls.

For iOS: You can use Xcode (though it's limited to Macs, so not usable directly on iOS devices). However, there are cloud IDEs or third-party tools that can allow iOS development via mobile browsers.

Development Flow: Youโ€™ll likely be limited to text-based coding, and might have to use a cloud-based IDE for more complex work:

Cloud IDEs: Services like Replit, Glitch, or Gitpod allow you to write code in a mobile browser and run it remotely. This could be an option if your mobile IDE is not capable of compiling OpenGL code directly.

Libraries/Frameworks: You can link OpenGL ES with libraries such as GLFW or EGL, but setting up these libraries might be easier on Android through a tool like Termux (a Linux environment on Android) that can simulate a development setup.
