  • One thing I've wished for a while is a defederation map. Feddit.de has lemmymap, but it seems to have been broken for quite a while.

  • I tried it way back when it launched, and before that, the whatever previous non-pokemon game they made. I didn't stick to it, and today I wouldn't touch a location tracking game with a long pole, but there was more fun in it than just collecting fake creatures or whatever. Going out for a walk and making my way to places marked on the game map was cool. I found some interesting landmarks that I had no idea about before.

  • You're absolutely correct and I think it looks awesome.

  • Using more than one bit for true/false isn't just a microsoft thing, and not really as ridiculous as it sounds. Memory isn't addessable by bits, but by bytes. You can either:

    • Do it like the example here.
    • Use bitfields: Pack multiple values into the same address, but "waste" more memory and cpu time for keeping track and checking which bit your bool is in. This is mostly useful when the data itself has to be really small.

    Why is it 32bit / 4 bytes instead of one? I assume a byte alignment reason because of some optimization.

  • Vague, smudged empty spots where you'd expect a kid.

  • It is there and it's blocked.

  • I'll try to come at your funeral, sure.

  • I'm pretty sure I saw this stuff growing on the walls in dead space.

  • Great for drawing, but I would not edit images with it.

  • Haven't watched it yet, but yes, absolutely.

  • The previous half of that paragraph implied that they wouldn't

  • Not a perfect solution by any means, but you can block communities you have no interest in.

  • I somehow doubt they have the same people building online apps and the designing processors.

  • But also obvious disadvantages to the customer in cases like this. Why should the customer not have a right to refuse?

  • I doubt that'll happen, but you aren't wrong.

  • Had a similar experience with a '13 air. Everything works, except wifi. F'n Broadcom. Don't remember how I got a working driver, but the next time it breaks I'll just try to order some compatible wireless card instead.
