Seeing a large company doing anything involving Linux besides blocking its users from using their product is a rare occurance these days.

The best way is to try it over and over until it works and then assume it works but then go insane wondering where all the edge case bugs are coming from.

I wrote a test one time.

I’ll stop using ai when Pearson stops using ai to generate broken homework assignments. Sometimes the only way to get whatever incorrect answer the ai autograder is looking for is to fish it out from the model.

I sew them back together and when they become so riddled with holes that fixing it is a waste of effort, I take them apart to make patches for other really messed up socks.

No. Do you have any idea how fucking difficult and complex rotations and angle math is when it becomes 3d? Quaternions, rotational matrices, imaginary numbers, gimbal lock. Things get really complicated really quick. Not every rotation related problem can even be explained and solved by modern mathematics as it is. How do you handle rotational velocity relative to a parent object so you can make a flight simulator? You can’t. The “solution” to this problem is to find a different or non mathematic way to accomplish approximately the same thing.

Making things 4d would be even more ridiculous. I’d even go as far as to speculate they’ll never fully figure out all the details around how to simulate 4d.

I want a pi with a gt210 somehow. Hacking the vbe extensions to work would be hard (since its stored as x86 code) but it should be possible to come up with a device-specific series of arm instructions that accomplish the same thing.

I hope it becomes possible to have steam games that run on arm64 and (eventually) risc-v linux. You actually can get at least some frames on those pi-like dev boards if whatever you’re trying to play is compiled for arm64 and whatever os you’re running has a high enough opengl version.

Sucks that blender needs such a high opengl version but besides that, the knockoff pi I’ve been tinkering with is reasonably good with a few caveats. The framebuffer on mine is really slow though, I think a dos era pci card would be an improvement even, it’s astonishing how bad it is when doing something that isn’t opengl accelerated. Wish they made pis with either parralel pci edge connectors or pci-e slots. If I ever get around to diy-ing and arm64 board it’s going to be just so I can mod an fpga on to the cpus parralel bus it to use it as a pci chipset.

One time I asked a Linux question in unity forums and the only response I got was something along the lines of “you people have no idea how lucky you are that unity is under contract to have a Linux version. It’s almost up though and soon we won’t have to deal with Linux questions”

Just use Godot or make your own with Irrlicht or Ogre. Fuck unity and fuck unreal, I’m not making a game if I have to do it in fucking Windows. The ui is too clunky and slow for the type of asset pipelining and file management that a game development or mod development workflow demands.

I’m saving this. Not because I want to make bombs, but if it really is that easy to make lithium batteries then knowing about the process will be beneficial someday. It’s hard to find information about how rechargeable batteries work. You probably couldn’t even make a lead acid battery from raw materials using just information on the internet.

You have to use user agents to fool scummy websites into thinking that you’re using chrome or edge.

Rememeber how “no one will ever need more than 8gb of ram”? Up until fairly recently (a few years ago) you could not talk about anything having to do with ram online without someone coming along and being like “ACKTCHUALLY no one needs more than 8gb of ram for anything even gaming”.

Then she’ll have to grow it all back. It’ll take time, but sometimes getting the perfect spite just takes time.

I know a guy that used a women’s hygiene product once by mistake. Now he’s a she and doesn’t have a penis anymore. Make sure your family knows the dangers involved of using the incorrect gendered hygiene product. It’s like plugging a 120v appliance into the 240v outlet.

Is this why I keep seeing shit covered tampons in the mens room? I get that it’s higher quality but come on.

Fuck Nintendo. I think Palworld is a stupid game that I wouldn’t ever bother to play but Nintendo is pure evil and they NEED to lose. They do not deserve a monopoly on whatever type of genre that is.

Uhh. Who’s counterfeiting a cpu that only basically 2 factories in the world can make? Functional fakes are a thing for some really basic chips but an apple arm cpu seems like a little much.

Things are so tight that 1 streaming service would be an irresponsible expense for me. $15/month for an expense that can be circumvented if you’re smart, its a no brainer. I feel like society has done more harm to me than any amount of piracy will ever do to them. Where are all these high paying jobs I was promised I could have if I got a degree, huh? I’m worse off now than before I made the decision to go to school. It’s pirated or nothing for me but it’s also more convenient. That enshittified corporate ui shit is slow.

Part of the reason I went to school for computer engineering is just so when people try to argue stupid bullshit like leaving your router plugged in will start a fire, hopefully they’ll recognize that im qualified enough to know better and fuck off.

We should normalize programs that don’t use such exotic and impossible libraries that you have to do anything besides type “make” and “make install” for it to work.

In theory it’s a no brainer. In practice not so much.
