the phrase “opt-in consent” is sickening. if its not opt-in then, legally, it shouldn’t be consent at all. I hate that we have to clarify.

Think of all the weird minigames that were only ever released on mobile; its Flash Games all over again! This is huge for emulation!
Why is this in c/Technology?
That’s exactly what I thought would work, but it doesn’t.
I’m using a regular off-the-shelf tape recorder, it doesnt have an electronic interface, I just press play and record manually.
I did use par2
and tar
to generate redundancy, but I still need a way to locate it in the bytestream. Tar doesn’t seem to reliably mark the start or end of files :/
I tried that first! But tar
complains if it can’t find the file header! So I still need to do some sort of packets. Unless you know some sort of workaround?
Starting anything from scratch is a huge risk these days. At best you’ll have something like the python 2 -> 3 rewrite overhaul (leaving scraps of legacy code all over the place), at worst you’ll have something like gnome/kde (where the community schisms rather than adopting a new standard). I would say that most of the time, there are only two ways to get a new standard to reach mass adoption.
Retrofit everything. Extend old APIs where possible. Build your new layer on top of https, or javascript, or ascii, or something else that already has widespread adoption. Make a clear upgrade path for old users, but maintain compatibility for as long as possible.
Buy 99% of the market and declare yourself king (cough cough chromium).
It’s my favorite controller for Steam, yeah! I have gyro aiming set up in minecraft; right trigger half pull enables gyro-to-mouse, and left touchpad pulls up a bunch of menu hotkeys.
If you want a budget controller with lots of features, go on ebay and get a used Dualshock 4 (PS4 controller). It’s got a touchpad and gyro so you can do some interesting stuff with it.
Please tell me the “Triple I Initiative” involves Solanum (Outer Wilds)
But how many digits of the result do you use?
That’s basically my reasoning, yeah. Specifically, in floating point notation; if you get rid of all the mantissa bits, you’d be left with 1 * 2^0. I suppose it could be 0 * 2^0, but a leading 1 is implied, since virtually all numbers are nonzero.
Firefox had tab grouping first. Before Chrome. And then it broke support for it when they did the add-ons overhaul. I’m surprised bringing it back wasn’t a high priority…
Answering my own question: I work in web development and my usual value for pi is the standard JavaScript Math.PI. JavaScript uses 64-bit floats, which are accurate to about 15 decimal places. But that’s how many digits the computer uses. For practical math, I don’t think I’ve ever needed more than 2 digits of accuracy in an equation involving pi.
optional autocomplete is a nice-to-have, eager autocomplete is a pain in the ass. as long as it only completes when I ask it to, I don’t mind.
right pad for mouse, left pad for hotkeys, all the way. Great for games that use the entire left half of the keyboard.
Sort of, but only long term. Evolution is slow and climate change is fast.
I had some Berenstain Bears books as a kid and I remember noting at the time “huh, weird name but okay”. So like, I don’t get why people think it was “Berenstein”? It looks wrong, but it’s always looked wrong.
Why is this on c/Technology? Musk isn’t twitter and twitter isn’t tech news.
