Yes… although I think it still stores the play time, just not show it.

I regularly play the 3DS still and it’s much better there! Play time of every game I ever played, average session time, etc.

Two of my favourite tools!

I think it shows "first played ..." for the first 10 days (iirc) as a privacy measure. Haven't found a way around it. After 10 days it shows the number of hours played.

That's handled by virtue of GetWittyReplyEx being #defined to GetWittyReplyExA and GetWittyReplyExW right? Just be aware that nMaxReplyMessage needs to be specified in bytes (excluding the null terminator!) but the returned length is in characters.

Note that while Visual C++'s msvcrt doesn't implement this POSIX function officially, there's a nonstandard _ofcyfpos_s() and it will in fact warn you that any use of the official ofcyfpos() is unsafe. The semantics are slightly different (it'll return 1 on success instead of the length of the reply) so you can't just #define the problem away.

Don't forget to set the cbSize of the GETWITTYREPLYEXINFO structure before passing it to GetWittyReplyEx() or you'll get funny things happening to your stack!

Thanks! And for CMR 2 it turns out it was working fine, the PS2 analog stick is just a bit more primitive to what we're used to now. But much better than digital in any case!

Thanks, that's it for the PS3!

I didn’t mind 3 but 2 will be my first and greatest love in this series! The first was also fun but a bit more difficult to parse visually imo.

This is very exciting! I’ve played and enjoyed each of these games a bunch and will certainly get this when it comes out. Don’t care much for creative stuff but more Bit Trip is always better 😁

Caught a virus or something. Working from home so not a big deal but uncomfortable.

Hopefully the workday won’t be like yesterday, a flurry of “fix it now” situations pre-empting each other 😣

Please no, Timmermans had his heart into it and got a lot done, Hoekstra however is a Shell alumnus and he nor his party has ever shown any serious concern for the climate catastrophe we’re in.

Iain Banks, such a brilliant author. Good sense of humour too.

A sticker of cute dogs in space suits and the caption “we want fully automated intergalactic luxury gay space communism” because it reminds me of Ian M. Banks - also gets a laugh out of people 😁

Dezelfde Jumbo die (filiaal hier iig) aan loondiefstal doet door te eisen dat werknemers 10 of 15 minuten van tevoren aanwezig zijn en achteraf laten wachten voor men mag vertrekken? Geen mooie schijn dit.

I like Void, it feels a little more like a BSD. But I’ve only really used it for experimentation, no idea what it’s like as a daily driver.

You could also try an actual BSD. OpenBSD has a very clear style and direction which I like but be careful when partitioning, they have their own ‘disklabel’ system. Updates are really streamlined with syspatch and sysupgrade.

NetBSD had a nice TUI installer. It may appear a bit less focussed on its aims but has a lot going for it: many supporter platforms, a friendly community, etc.

There’s also FreeBSD, DragonflyBSD, possibly more but I don’t have much experience with those.

Loved cheese but not having it any more. Not my milk not my cheese. My pleasure can’t come at the expense of another sentient, innocent being, especially not if that involves forced impregnation, being caged up, and having your children be taken almost right away who then often end up being killed because there’s no use.

I haven't read Quantum Magician but certainly agreed on the Three Body Problem and Children of Time. Fantastic books.

Some others I really like:

• This Is How You Lose the Time War - short, poetic. Love it.
• Red Mars trilogy and really anything by Kim Stanley Robinson. Oh also in particular The Years of Rice and Salt
• Diaspora by Greg Egan and also much of his other stuff
• Player of Games and Use of Weapons from Ian Banks' Culture series. Haven't read all of them yet.
• Ancillary Justice
