As soon as I make more than a script, I’m using a debugger.

I really can’t wrap my head around how so many of my colleagues in the professional work field just print wherever until they find their problem.

print statements feel like touching around in pitch darkness until I found what I sought, compared to a debugger which feels like just seeing my room and daylight while finding what I sought.


I’ve had this with Rust once, t’was a weird feeling.


Once Gabe is dead steam will do the same, and I am planning for that too now.

Why do you make it sound like Steam being decent is because of Gabe Newell, and not because of the culture there?
Oh shit no, Gabe, please be immortal!


It’s because if you turn it 90° to the right, it looks like Elvis’ hair with two eyes underneath!


The paradigm breaks if anything is logged?

I feel like I’m missing a few steps in the logic.


“help patent trolls” is a very confusing statement, as “patent” can be a verb or a noun in this case. “help patent abuse” would be much clearer.


Does external logging not happen outside of OOP?

If so, why not?


Lots of things with a GUI, but games are better left for ECS.



You can also run them using the correct Proton prefix directly.

ProtonTricks can help make this a lot easier and more graphical.


Millenials grew up using BASIC on Windows 3?!

Millenials were teenagers possibly learning coding starting from 1995, the world was using C++ on Windows 95 at best.


You’re not disproving their point, though.

If anything, if the opposition is like this, it makes them seem all the more credible…


Why are you using Vim for this? Vim actually allows you to change the cursor position and select text with the mouse if your terminal supports it.



DDG makes it quite the statement that they don’t personalise your search in any way, to the point where you can pick which country’s tailored results you want from a dropdown.


FWIW, at least Nord and Express explicitly put on their terms and conditions that you’re not allowed to use their services illegally, Nord mentions a few usages including unblocking content that should not be available in your region.

They also give influencers like YouTubers and Twitch streamers scripts telling them to show how you can unblock content, but apparently the T&C weighs far heavier in court.



You can also not do it, it was just an additional comment!


It renders correctly on the web as well for me.

But the ``` being on their own line is how to write it properly, as stated this website among many others.

This way, you can put the intended programming language on the same line as the first ```, ensuring proper colour coding!

Ex.

echo "Hello $name\n";
echo "Hello $name\n";

EDIT I checked on mobile, it rendered odd on Jerboa for me:

Now it is fixed:

You mean they’re slightly off? Like 7:00?


Okay now I get the joke.
I hate these kind of people.

By the way, your ``` both need to be on their own, separate line


Shameless plug 😋

But I like what I see, it’s like LaTeX but for music sheets! I might want to try something with that!


Just don’t work there, seems like a company run by idiots



First try: Normal fast
Second try: Push harder in case a key didn’t register, still normal fast
Third try: Only use a single finger, selecting every key carefully



XMPP with the OMEMO extension is close, no? While Matrix isn’t distributed, it is decentralised like Lemmy and Mastodon, and E2EE by default. That could be the closest thing to what you mean?


XMPP; an open protocol that can be as basic as IRC or extended to support everything Telegram does and more. Decentralised (since it’s a protocol), and E2EE through OMEMO or by encrypting with PGP client side is something your provider can’t even have control over.


It’s a proxy for a number of LLMs of choice, prompts anonymised before they’re sent. A bit like how their search engine is anonymised Bing, or how their maps are anonymised Apple Maps. I’m happy with the service!


perplexity.ai

Like DuckDuckGo’s AI’s, but with sources? Sounds cool, thanks!

fake

Ah… Too bad (:


I’m sorry which LLM is this? What are its settings? How’d you get that out of it?

And how did it give sources?


In doing this as well, for the same reason



They need somehow a way to earn there living expanses ?

Crackers don’t do it for a living lol
They’re normal people with normal, often 9-5, jobs; who just bought a gamr and want to help more people get their hands on that game even through pay walls and region restrictions.


I would if I could!

I will say, there’s something scary about crafting your own medicine, I’d expect medicine to be highly precisely crafted in labs by highly educated professionals and that it’d be difficult and perhaps dangerous to make and take your own medicine. I could be wrong.

The things they write in the article are amazing, people can make their own life savine cure to hepatitis C for about 70 USD for their whole home made treatment, that just works? It seems too good to be true without any caveats.

Oh and, final thought, “Four Thieves Collective”? They really don’t beat around the bush. I like that


Also, sidenote, 8.3MP camera does not mean the outputted image is that large.

I know someone with a smartphone with 108MP single camera, it has a bad lens but compresses the capture into a sharper 2k picture. Most digital (phone) cameras work this way.

But yeah, you don’t see 4k image unless your screen is 4k, as they said.


Sometimes the compression is not great, and 4k compressed on the fly might look visibly sharper then whatever 1080p version they offer. I’ve noticed this with YouTube videos sometimes.

That said, I’ve seen too many tech illiterate people go for 4k video not realising they also need a 4k screen. Or complaining their 4k console doesn’t look 4k, not realising the game also needs to output it


I wish it could build front ends fornme so I could focus on database, backend and devops



I think noone else has heard of “scene” music before, me neither and your comment om “familiar names” is not helping one bit…
