why is the loop variable `i`? and then afterwards, `j`?

I understand J afterwards, but why i in the first place, what does it mean? why not `a`, or `x` (this is done sometimes)

found this video on my hard drive of a little C++ and SDL2 game i hacked up a while back,,,

@waltercool And just think about what he is saying. Imagine if we treated all wars (including all the gorilla wars in third world countries that most people don't even know about) like the war going on Ukraine right now. Pretty much every first world country would be bankrupt by now.

@waltercool Honestly, globalism has created and perpetuated more wars than it tried to prevent.

I don't understand this soyboy. It's retarded to think NATO is anti-war. NATO just supports war according to their own selfish interest.

If a country is unstable enough for civil war or coup, then no country should intervene. Internal wars are not the same as foreign wars.

Globalism < Nationalism < Localism < Individualism

The smaller the scope is, the freer you are.

>Android is what made most people who would otherwise never go to smartphones go to smartphones.

I think it was mostly Blackberry. Texting became popular before smartphones and people wanted something that didn't require pressing the same button repeatedly to enter a letter. Blackberry with it's QWERTY keyboard fitted that purpose. They were popular (at least here in the US) around 2007-2010. But BlackBerry became irrelevant because they refused to adapt to everyone else copying the iPhone.

>So what if Goolag decides they'll discontinue Android in favor for Fushia?
At least we can fork Android if Google ever decides to kill it even if the major smartphone manufacturers refuse to adopt it. We also have full blown GNU/Linux phones now so we have other options.

@Jens_Rasmussen @coin @JapanAnon @moth_ball Disobedience is the only way to resist the UN.
Ignoring authority while being aware of them will render any ATHORITAH powerless.

But like I said, their power is already in place, they just proxy it through national governments.
Just notice how every single misleader repeat the UN party line all at the same time all the time.

And even then they're a bunch of puppets, though from 1 place instead of 192.
The entire world is a stage, there is no such a thing as many different countries, it's all an illusion and they've been in the process of slowly but surely taking the illusion off bit by bit over the past 200 years.

I don't know about you, but I believe that Android is what made most people who would otherwise never go to smartphones go to smartphones.

So what if Goolag decides they'll discontinue Android in favor for Fushia?
Fushia is NOT running on the Linux kernel, but instead they invented their own kernel, and therefore they no longer have the obligation to make the OS (partially) open source.
It might be open source at first to lure the FOSS fans to the OS, but it's their own kernel, so it would be naive to not expect a
blatant bait and switch at one point.
And the reason why Android is so great is exactly because they can't legally lock it down (I don't care about legal, but all the slaves, I mean way too many people do).

From what I've seen, Fushia might eventually become as locked down as iOS has been since 2007.
If not initially, it would be later eventually.
Just like how WinDOS is getting more and more locked down like macOS as time goes on, which is also getting more and more locked down like iOS.
Slow boil of the (gay) frogs.

Of course Goolag will debunk it, but history showed us again and again and again and again, when the same developer has to maintain 2 different things doing basically the same thing, they'll dump one in favor for the other, so don't expect Goolag to keep Android around when Fushia starts gaining (artificial) popularity.

JewTube also has a massive track record of installing a new feature while a similar one not only still works fine, but is superior over the new one too, then they break that older one bit by bit, then they lock people out of that older feature, and then they say "well, looks like nobody cares about that older feature anymore, so I guess we can remove it then".

@ArdainianRight And you're an idiot if you get your political views from fucking e-celebs, no matter what those views are. For the love of God, read a God damn book.

@ArdainianRight Actually, go beyond that. Every fucking e-celeb that was part of the culture war turned out to be a huge sell-out. That includes the alt-right, skeptics, SJWs, breadtube, the drama channels watching all sides. It was a giant shitshow at the end of the day.

@xianc78 @ArdainianRight Yeah, I would be mercifully free of these people if not for the swooning, jilted fanboys who keep bringing them up.

Let them fade into obscurity instead of constantly bringing them up, over and over and over...

@ArdainianRight I don't know why anyone still gives a fuck about either of these alt-hype e-celebs. It's not 2017 anymore.
