I respect that as true, but every console other than XBox is either Linux or BSD based; at a certain point learning to work with alternative platforms is just good business practice.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

I’m pretty sure you have no idea what a kernel does if you’re jumping to user space. It’s very far from meaningless.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

This is officially the stupidest response I have ever gotten on a social platform.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

And which game was that, if you don’t mind my asking?

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Incidentally, Chuck Palahniuk has said the same.

The worst thing about American Gods is that they had plenty of episodes to complete the core storyline; but the studio dragged it out so poorly that we never received it.

Thankfully Gaiman has had some central creative control of his shows since.

JavaScript is what’s called an “untyped” language, so here, it assumes that the numbers are words, and tries to sort them alphabetically. Specifically, it tries to sort them alphabetically as a dictionary would in a left-to-right language like English. In this case, just as “apple” would come before “asterisk”, 100000 would come before 21.

(Some would argue that it’s more of a “weakly typed” language, I know, but I’m trying not to be pedantic here.)

Sorting them as actual numbers would require some extra explicit instructions and guides. Most typed languages, like C, aren’t like this.

Jeezis fuq… what was he drinking, gasoline and turpentine??

MEEEEeeerhhhaaaauugghh… 🤢🤮🪣

I didn’t know about this, but realistically that’s kind of like saying I just found out that Jim Morrison used to smoke a little weed. So don’t mind me.

I do hope he has some easy final days, in all seriousness.

Yes, she was a stripper. Don’t you judge.

Look, when I said “another Bethesda game”, I was pretty specifically referring to either the Quake reboot, or Prey 2. I don’t know how everybody misunderstood that.

I thought it was obvious, even.

Microsoft is killing Windows

Yeesh.

Do let me know, if you ever find that article?

After nearly 30 years, Pennsylvania will end state funding for anti-abortion counseling centers (apnews.com)

Pennsylvania plans to end on Dec. 31 its longstanding contract with the nonprofit Real Alternatives, the first organization in the nation to secure significant state and federal subsidies to support anti-abortion counseling centers. Under the program, Real Alternatives distributed the state and federal funds to dozens of...

Coming from New Mexico where you can buy alcohol at a pharmacy and chase your painkillers with it, I think having specific state controlled liquor stores is actually a pretty good idea.

I can’t tell if he’s being sarcastic, or not, or if he knows whether he’s being sarcastic or not.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

The red band is where the real geniuses are. Apparently.

Never tell a joke, if you don’t think it’s funny.

In my dreams, Hideo Kojima, the old Castlevania people, the fired senior writers at BioWare, and now, the old gods of Volition when it was good, are quietly building a studio together somewhere. With Mick Gordon and Jeremy Soule running OSTs.

Not a Skyrim fan?

That’s entirely unconfirmed hearsay. He’s also been in this industry since FF6, working with a heck of a lot of people, so it would very much be sudden and unusual.

When a court rules on it, I’ll take it seriously.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

I just… don’t… know who to root for anymore, man!

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Amen to that.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

I’m out of the crypto loop. (Happily.) WTF is an “airdrop”?

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

PII. That where da reeeaaal money at.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Yeah, but isn’t that kind of risky? I mean, if I have to kill ten people to get the air drop, then that leaves at most one eleventh of the viable population to receive it, right?

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Yeah. All at the same time.

To be fair, a lot of their guns are multiple decades old.

Linux 6.6 To Better Protect Against The Illicit Behavior Of NVIDIA's Proprietary Driver (www.phoronix.com)

Luis Chamberlain sent out the modules changes today for the Linux 6.6 merge window. Most notable with the modules update is a change that better builds up the defenses against NVIDIA’s proprietary kernel driver from using GPL-only symbols. Or in other words, bits that only true open-source drivers should be utilizing and not...

Sounds a lot like what I call blackbox reverse engineering.

This whole process just backs up my notion that software patents are generally BS anyway, doesn’t it.

More dog owners are questioning vaccines like rabies after COVID (www.pressherald.com)

More than half of U.S. dog owners expressed concerns about vaccinating their dogs, including against rabies, according to a new study published Saturday in the journal Vaccine. The study comes as anti-vaccine sentiments among humans have exploded in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic....

OK grandma.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

I don’t even want to know what that is. We’ve been speaking downhill since Javascript…

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

I pronounced that “Shitter”. I like it.

The great thing about Lemmy and Mastodon is that they’re practically set in stone. They can neither get substantially better, nor worse.

He spent $44B. Thousands of dollars might be accurate, but let’s think about that for a moment…

I… I miss Geocities.

I MISS GEOCITIES.

Oh. My. Gawd.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Oh look, another shitter.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

A fair point. As of yet, I have good reason to have faith in the longevity of this online community, though.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

We thought we hated that shit once… then, we realized how much we depended on it. How central it all was.

Rainbows, man. Rainbows everywhere. And tacky MIDI auto-playing from your single-tabbed browser.

Times were goooood.

That’s great, but we need a name!

They’re going to build their own San Francisco! With blackjack and hookers!

That thing looks like a soda machine toppled onto a pallete jack and spray painted the color of the road…

I’ve said before that leaving Windows is like leaving an abusive family-- you don’t know how bad it was until you’re looking back at it with perspective
