@beardalaxy @matana Well, he's both British and a Sony fanboy, so that comes with the territory. Apparently, what pissed off a lot of his former fans was him bragging about letting his step-children watch Peppa Pig including the woke parts (something about teaching kids about non-binary people). I know next to nothing about that show, so I can't verify anything. He was also known for shitting on One Angry Gamer even before they made that "Traitors of America" list during the George Floyd shitshow.

@beardalaxy @matana I remember watching him along with the other Hidden Block members back in high school. Apparently, this guy has gone full woke now.

Okay it doesn't seem like it's fixing the lag. At least it did fix the problem of audio crashing (apparently you can't have more than 140 sf::Sound objects in memory). I will try to fix the problem tomorrow because my adderall is wearing off.

So, I think I fixed the lag problem, key word being "think". So, in SFML, you have two objects for sounds: sf::SoundBuffer and sf::Sound. The sound buffer just loads the sound file. And sf::Sound is an instance of said sound with a pointer to the buffer. Up until now, I have every game object holding all of the sounds they play in their own sf::Sound objects. I thought it wouldn't be a strain on the memory because the actual sound data is stored in the buffers, but now I have a singleton class to handle all the sound playing.

I've noticed that there is somewhat less lag when there is a clutter of cars, but I haven't truly verified that yet. I haven't done it on a huge cluster of cars. Anyway, this should be a good thing, because the game is piss easy right now with amount of enemies on-screen.

Now, I'm working on a high score table. I got it to load random scores from a text file and sort them by score using the insertion sort algorithm.

@vriska Why use LibreOffice when you can just write everything in LaTeX and convert to PDF?

@rasterman If you've gone down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole like I have, you would've came with the same conclusion.

@rasterman Don't worry. I've created a new term, "stockholm syndromite" because when you really think about it, statism is just stockholm syndrome. You just love your abusive rulers, don't you?

@realcaseyrollins @diedsuddenly_ Elon Musk is a total fraud. You should look into his history if you want to learn more. His grandfather was part of the Technocracy movement (basically a precursor to the Great Reset that was proposed back in the 1930s).
