“Make your own games!”

“Okay!”

“No! Not like that!”

Yeah, there’s a good chance he’s either a naïve moron that thinks Meta has good intentions, or a techbro that soyfaces at any proprietary technology that has incorporated a trendy technology.

Also GPU drivers.

If you’re mad at NVidia for their closed-source drivers, then remember that ARM seldom makes their Linux drivers available for free, so you have to either have to deal with absolutely no GPU driver while the CPU does the graphics rendering (might not be a big deal on a NAS though), or with open source drivers that are less capable than the Nouveau drivers and even fiddlier to install. The ARM Mali driver issue is so bad I was legit thinking on a solution to run the Android binary blobs (which at least are available by ripping them off from the Android kernel) on regular Linux, a lot of function call redirects would likely take care of that issue.

That solution is janky and slow as hell. I’d rather just embed it into my own software, which is mostly done, except it doesn’t find functions as functions, but as nil value.

D.

It has C ABI compatibility, so it should work. But as others wrote, I might have messed up my Lua script.

No, I’m developing my own engine.

Eventually they will join, but will take a while…

It just takes a bit of time, then people will evetually come to the fediverse.

Install an emulator for her alongside with some roms. Unfortunately, that’s pretty much the only option we have nowadays.

Shameless plug of my own game engine, in case someone needs an alternative, and is happy with pixelart graphics.

Mine is quite minimalistic, and relies for the D runtime and standard library (or other D libraries) for many things. Also my engine is primarily geared towards retro pixelart games, and works as such. Currently, the CPU renders to a low-res texture (as seen in emulators), which is then stretched to a higher resolution, later on it’ll replaced by custom shaders that do color lookup and render directly to a texture (which is quite complicated, simpler methods would cause easily misalignable pixels, thus defeating the engine’s purpose, even if some likes the “smooth” scaling from other engines).

It’s usually quite difficult, since most other engines use C++, which is pretty different from C# in many aspects. My engine (PixelPerfectEngine - 2D game engine primarily aimed at retro pixelart games, link: https://github.com/ZILtoid1991/pixelperfectengine ) is written in D, which is much closer to C# in a lot of aspects, however my engine is far less capable than Unity, still needs a lot of development, and also has it’s own quirks that make some features inconveinent to implement or add.

Is there any GUI for either GDB or LLDB? Most cases, I don’t think “writing macros to do complicated things” is a path walkable for me, especially as I mostly want to do simple things.

A simple downgrade solved the issue, but regardless of that I’ll try to look into some alternatives, especially since VS has licensing issues, which is fine for me as I use it for open source projects, but might not be fine for others who would use it for closed source projects, and I made my open source engine in a way it allows for be used in closed source projects.

Actions speak louder than words…

Use google to mean “web search” in general!

Let them loose their trademark over the name google by generalization!

I used to flex on other programmers by telling them I code in D. Nowadays they tell me to try Rust instead. (D is still better IMO, especially with no const by default, which isn’t always convenient, especially for stuff negatively benefiting from functional programming.)

Linux doesn’t have a standard file extension for executable files, and that wouldn’t have been good for this meme.

As long as you don’t check the task manager.

In the short run, yes. In the long run, this just makes a bunch of coders that are now afraid of type declarations, because they were scared away from it with the “what if you have to choose?” tagline, thus making turning back to the proper way of doing things harder.

I have a few suggestions:

1. Better education. Don’t scare people who’re learning programming away from the lower-level stuff, especially as people are even getting scared to use type declarations, not just the pointers (of which I was fearmongered with in college, as they told me Java is the future).
2. Better portable APIs. Thanks to WebAssembly, one could easily have both something portable in a web browser and as a native desktop app, except instead we get browsers running said applications. I had some thinking about such a project, but then I remembered my iota project (a D-native replacement of SDL/SFML/GLFW, but without bloat by including standard library features), and then stopped thinking about it immediately, since a much smaller project already causes me too much headache. (Someone has a handy guide on win32 API? I have issues on getting certain messages produced, like input language change, and I don’t know if I glimpsed over some functions that enable them and just weren’t included in the documentation of the input language change event codes.)

And the app is just a chromium browser without the ability of typing in your own URL.

Wait until you meet with Javascript and WebAssembly viruses!

Those are not femboys, but doggirls.

Free speech for me but not for thee.

1. Work of art no longer sold.
2. Creator(s) and/or production company involved with the making are garbage human beings.
3. You don’t have money and you don’t just want to stare the ceiling.

I’m a D developer, and D is so far the best language I’ve tried. It has very powerful meta programming capabilities, looks much nicer than Rust, and supports multiple paradigms. My main gripe is the lack of libraries, but it’s pretty easy to either write your own, or a binding to a C or C++ one. I wrote a couple of my own libraries, and I’m currently writing my own replacement for SDL, called iota, and I aim it to be a smaller version of it (e.g. not including things into it that already exist in the Runtime and Phobos).

I really like multi paradigm programming, as most programming paradigms are good at a select few things, while over-complicate others.

No, gen Z C++ requires you to type fn for every function, weakly typed (type systems are scary), and every value is constant by default (variables are super scary and bad).

Yes, but also capitalism must be too abolished for it to work. At best we would just have the current big media corporations technically asset flipping smaller creators, at worst corporations just could use private armies to enforce their copyright.

Will Russia enter its Balkanization arc?

I think an option for full data deletion would be nice for those who want it, otherwise people should also expect others recording their data, which can be published later on.

I’m not against corporations wanting to set up their own instance for their own employees for them to interact with the Fediverse. I’m against data-collection, targeted advertisements, and corporate control.

Finally, a good utilization of AI art. (Really hate spammers)

I currently use Tidal. Lacks some of the DnB albums I liked on Spotify, but at least has proper audio quality.
