So his default for Canada is this energy measure?

Go fuck your self trump.

I think Postgres could win the MisSql pageant

Snowflake and DuckDB would be up there doing 10 different talents, then Postgres would just stand there and say “uh huh, I do that too” to thunderous applause!

SQLite would win the swimsuit competition but then struggle with concurrent writes during talent show and get disqualified. The judges would always get its name wrong.

Big query would get caught copying Snowflake and bribing the judges. Presto/Trino would require a full team to get dressed for the costume contest and miss the event.

MySQL wouldn’t win any single event, but would get high scores all around for unknown reasons.

MongoDB would be at the front desk trying to convince the judges to let it enter, and while doing that would accidentally drop a suitcase filled with business and government secrets.

Makes sense, thank you

Definitely matters for calls, most wireless headphones lower quality for decreased latency when the microphone is on.

At least that’s my understanding

That actually seems attractive to me, but I’m unsure where I stand yet. It’s pricey, I just want a box I can put in the basement and then connect everything to over wifi.

It came back during Covid, I have a box of webcams now.

They’re much more targeting workers nowadays.

My answer is I got promotions and now I’m not allowed to spend time on making nice code, I just have to get results and I’m closely judged by volume over quality.

I started a project with “I’ll just build a simple entity component system”

I quickly abandoned it because that does not work at all if you have not planned out all of the features you’ll use.

With all the features modern games have, and their portability across platforms and graphics stacks, yeah it’s damn impressive these things work.

My all time most annoying bug was the Witcher 3 chest management.

The algorithm they used to display and sort contents if a chest was abhorrently slow. I’ve worked on large datasets with terabytes of contents that sort faster than the inventory in Witcher 3 did.

Other than that, a near flawless game!

“Who the hell wrote something so stupid”

git blame

“Oh. Never mind”

At least it means you’re improving.

Not true

If you learn rust you’ll start saying “this would never have happened if they had used rust”

I would hope you can still pair an old controller for that

My switch mostly get used for ring fit these days.

That’s how I feel, and I was between SDL and just writing GL code myself.

The problem is I run Mac and OpenGL is at best neglected and is deprecated. If I use webgl and wasm I done have to worry about any of that, and they have sdl for wasm.

Edit: my game is going to be 2d and the UI isn’t going to be more complex than raylib. I’m just playing around but also building an idea I’ve had for years.

Do you have suggestions?

Last time I looked at QT I didn’t like it

For what it’s worth, I’m not looking at electron but something like an embedded browser mode. I think qt has that

I’m experimenting with a game and rather than deal with platform specific graphics I’m just targeting wasm and webgl and plan to embed my game in a browser runtime.

It feels less terrible than the mess that is linking platform specific logic and code.

God I’m so tired of Marvel.

I know people like it, and that’s okay, but every action movie is now Guardians of the Galaxy. The earlier marvel movies are fun too, but by Ironman 2/3 there was so much product placement and it all felt very stale and sterile.

Thanks, that’s really cool

Do they dump it into space when they’re done or do they have to ship the piss back to earth?

Oh my god, in a few years we’ll lose them completely!

Same here, was on Reddit since 2010.

I remade an account because some of my communities aren’t big enough here. But the quality of interaction through the fediverse is much much better.

For sports, Reddit has utterly ruined them because in the app they show the results for every F1 Grand Prix as soon as the race finishes in an unremovable “trends” tile. I often can’t watch live, and so I had almost every race this season spoiled.
