C++ is home sick, currently the doctor (compiler) is not sure whether it’s got the flu or a terminal cancer.

Yeah first though when I looked at this was “wait isn’t this literally the sex couch ?”

hbomberguy’s video essays on games are some of the best content on YouTube

More games video essayists I like : Noah Caldwell-Gervais, Joseph Anderson, eurothug4000, GiantGrantGames (mostly RTS games and challenge runs of said games, but he has a great voice and his reviews are interesting), Mandaloregaming (not longform, but good editing and analysis).

Edgelord special mention : SsethTzeentach. I do think he definitely gets too edgy at times, though it is sometimes funny, but he does talk about some very obscure games sometimes and highlights what makes them original/interesting

You could even do that on the player’s model specifically. But it’s still a maybe, you’re almost guaranteed to get some cursed bugs due to every preexisting code having been made with right handedness in mind.

I’m sure animators are internally screaming at the reasons why this will make some originally right handed animations look off but that’s not my area of expertise.

In reality it’s probably not the hardest thing to do gameplay-wise, especially if you’re doing it from the very beginning of the project, but I don’t think you can simply mirror animations (and some animations-related logic) and have it look natural, so you’d have to make dedicated animations and possibly logic for left hand strikes, right hand blocks etc. which would obviously be much more expensive. But yeah that’s probably what Minecraft does now for example, and since they have a very low level of detail on player characters and their animations it looks alright.

As a gameplay programmer, I got anxiety from reading this (and I think the animators are already in a fetal position on the floor)

CMS is arguably worse than AZERTY. Or maybe l’m just too used to AZERTY…

French here, after having to buy a Canadian laptop I can confirm I didn’t go back to the french layout. Also the “english (Canada)” locale usually has sane regionalization options (like DD/MM date and distance in meters or kilometers, celsius temperature…) compared to the other English ones

Yeah I’m not asking questions about the technical stuff I’m actually interested in to an HR drone

IIRC Signal stated that they can collect IPs of some users if asked by a judge but that’s about it (not retroactively). Which imo also further proves that they actually value privacy without using it as an excuse to make money from people doing truly evil shit

It might be correct behavior but when there are laws in place to force the company to comply, actually having the data is a problem.

Also, making it harder for pedophiles to find each other and groups where they can share their shit is a good way to defeat all the shitty “think about the children” laws that European countries are constantly trying to pass to make encryption illegal

I legit swore off the entire OS when one of my teachers forced us to use macOS + X code to write Objective C code

Agree. I used a ton of different IDEs too and I can say Rider was the least terrible one I’ve used professionally (mostly on Unreal Engine projects, so having the thing not kill itself when trying to compute large, complex codebases for syntax highlighting/autocomplete was a requirement).

Doesn’t OVH support SAP ? I’m sure they could help the German military create a data center for themselves if needed

That’s what Steam is for

Does that sticker say “no God, no State, no cable salad” in German ? Because that is peak Lemmy.

You can try doing it like me and just have all the useless knowledge push the actual memories out. Not sure I’d recommend though.

I don’t remember, but I know for a fact that cats are their natural predators

It’s possibly the least disruptive thing you can do that may also entertain some passersby
