@skylar what I wanted: a computer with all the software capabilities of my laptop that can fit in my pocket, that's as easy to write programs for as linux

what I got: a gay turd that's a nightmare to program for, managed by companies that actively try to make the software worse to force upgrades
Israeli Jewish Mega Psychopathy du Jour

The Israeli Defense Ministry has ordered the family of a fallen Christian soldier to remove the cross from his headstone.

The chief rabbi of the IDF said the cross “hurts the holiness” of the Jewish cemetery.

Why does any Christian support Israel?

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?! SFML had a depth-buffer, then removed it because Laurent Gomila thought that a 2D library didn't need it.

Except, you DO need it. Sometimes you need to dynamically change the orders in which sprites are drawn, especially for 2.5D games just like what this linked article is talking about.

The article below talks about a solution using OpenGL and a derivative of SFML's vertex arrays, but that seems way too complex for something that should be dead simple. This is part of the reason why SFML will never be on the same level as SDL. I only use it because I have this weird urge to be different....to my own detriment.

Okay maybe I'm in a bubble but (rhetorical question) how was Harris ahead for nearly three months while acting like a retarded wino mom?

PS1 with fucked up disc drive repaired (which will surely hasten it's demise as I pushed the potentiometer on the drive up significantly)

I was a Nintendo babby so I am excited to try some more Sony-exclusive stuff...

LibAlleg does not have a guide on framerate-independent game logic, which makes removing the FPS cap difficult. No worries, I could do multithreading.

Except for some ungodly reason, the renderer is hard-capped at 60 frames per second, agnostic to my own code. This is "120"

I only found this out the hard way when my timescale math inadvertently caused the publisher intro to be twice as long instead of just being double the framerate.

At that time I had not implemented a delta timer because I was relying on Allegro's event timers for pacing, so I had no way of viewing the framerate until I took this screenshot. You can probably imagine the hours I wasted trying to fix my code not realizing what was happening.

*sigh* time to contact the IRC again...

Eh this is by far the weakest one of the new bunch. Extremely generic and carries none of Linkin Park's essence. It just comes across as something that could have been made by anyone. It's a song I've already heard so many times.

I know people have said this about Linkin Park with each new album... I've never been one to talk about that because there was always Linkin Park essence between every single song even if the style was a little different. This new one contains absolutely *nothing*. May as well have been made by your least favorite, blond, corporate-backed industry plant female vocalist.

Bluesky is even more toxic than Twitter. Within the first week, I've had to block or have been blocked by 5+ people because of a minor political disagreement.

Don't shamelessly worship Kamala? You're a Nazi and you want women to be genocide victims, nevermind that Kamala can barely even read, orange man bad

Tons of made-up sob stories too where if you even just ask an honest question you get accused of sexual harassment or transphobia.

I've remained pretty reasonable with people and I constantly have been insulted for no reason by folks who just want to feel better than everyone else.

Also noticeably lacking important features and the mobile client is still poorly glued together. Just don't bother with it guys.

Got another $5 cassette deck from Goodwill that just needs belts wooo

And also a Garfield CD

The DeVault Report:

https://dmpwn.info/

It looks like @drewdevault, the coward who secretly authored (and tried to deny authorship) of the Stallman Report is now trying to nuke every part of his past.

The DeVault Report contains tons of archived links showing Drew is super into lolis, like crazy into lolis. He's written bots/scrapers and image hosts just for his loli addiction.

He accused Stallman of defending potatophiles, and yet DeVault's own reddit history shows him constantly defending nonces.
There is some insane beautiful poetic irony of Drew Fuckhead getting the Kiwifarms treatment ... kinda wonder if it will make him be less of a dick? .. or wait, we're talking about DeVault here ... so of course not.

Also this makes me think of the story of his own hostile dickhead takeover of an IRC chat over a decade ago.
everything i have heard about drew convinces me that some people just need to die

ayo, system shock remake is 55% off on steam right now. play it, it's good! i haven't beaten it because i have so much other shit i've been playing but i do really like it so far.
