FirstWizardZorander , to programmerhumor in so scary

When I first started my Linux journey about 23 years ago, I only ran it in text mode, since my computer didn’t have the disk space for X. I remember using Vim, and whenever I wanted to close it I would hit Alt-F4, which of course performed a VT switch.

When I inevitably launched Vim again on VT4 and wanted to close it, I obviously coudn’t, but I got the idea that Alt-F5 was a more powerful Alt-F4, so I used that.

After that I figured I was stuck and rebooted the machine.

Wait, when did they get past 1.4 ? /s

Also, could Oracle/Sun ever get around to not changing the numbering system on a product midway through a product life. I mean, Java 1.21 is great and all, but you know…

TheElectroness , to programmerhumor in Optimized Code

I assumed, at first, that it was somehow falling through the infinite loop and accidentally runnning the unreachable function, but it clearly explicitly runs it in the assembler generated…

<pre style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<span style="color:#323232;">10f4: 48 8d 3d d5 00 00 00  lea    0xd5(%rip),%rdi        # 11d0 <_Z11unreachablev>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">10fb: ff 15 b7 2e 00 00     call   *0x2eb7(%rip)        # 3fb8 <__libc_start_main@GLIBC_2.34>
</span>

how odd.

edit: ah, it’s called from __start, which suggests that main is being elided entirely by the optimiser, and somehow ‘unreachable’ is simply becoming a defacto ‘main’

Just got around to playing (most of) Mother 3 last year. It has a lot of the same charm and is really interesting in its own way… but it still didn’t hit me quite the same way Earthbound did.

Any good alternatives? Everything I found has no content or pretends to have content so I can click the screen 1000 times for them. I took rarbg for granted for so long, I never realized it was in a class of its own.

Thanks for your work here dude. I’m glad there’s people like you making places like this so us refugees have somewhere to flee to

dessalines OP ,

No problem, glad to help.

reddit is dead what is this post

robcee , to reddit in The Apollo dev banned and removed all my comments suggesting Lemmy as an alternative to reddit.

well, I saw your comment and made it here, so at least one happy customer was served.

Kind of short-sighted by Christian to do this. He could put up an instance, make an Apollo update (not trivial) and migrate a bunch of users onto Lemmy. Getting a decent percentage of Apollo users over here would be good for a producer of a popular app based client. I’d wager operating his own instance would end up being cheaper than Reddit’s API fees. He could even benefit from donations to keep his servers running.

Everybody wins in this hypothetical, magical, free business idea.

dessalines OP ,

Sweet, glad to have you.

I don’t mind the ban too much as I don’t use reddit often, but it’s probably indicative that the developer plans to stay with reddit. Our door is always open to him if he changes his mind tho.

He has a mastodon, can you tag him here through that? Might be easier to get his attention that way vs. through reddit @dessalines

Plenty of other comments mentioned Voat and Lemmy … weird old.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/…/jmd4wk8/

Maybe the difference is the fact that Dessalines is directly involved in the Lemmy project. Maybe that makes it self promotion in the Apollo dev’s eyes? 🤷

That would be a little like the staff on the sinking Titanic reminding passengers not to mention other cruise lines :p

dessalines OP ,

Self-promotion rules are really weird for open-source projects too. Its like we’re telling people about a pizza recipe that we created and are sharing freely… we’re not selling anything or trying to profit off people.

harpuajim , to piracy in Rarbg shut down

That is sad. I used it for pirating episodes of the British version of Love Island. It was regularly uploaded and I didn’t belong to any trackers that uploaded reality TV. Hopefully I can find something before the next season begins.

@jonah@lemmy.one avatar

Hmm… That does not bode well for my hopes that Apollo would support Lemmy in the future. It could have been one of his mods and not the dev himself, though.
