@BasilTheGreat @CadburyUK you know that's point of sale right? The shop are given signage from Head office or whatever and they put it out.

@interesting_aIl power the up hill conveyor belt thing so it can clear the balls without being pushed

This is a classic case of overengineering

@Itsfoss Don't be silly. clearly I would rewrite vim in rust. 🤣

Don't say Copilot. ☠️

@georgehanu @straceX not slower. The Amstrad CPC 6128 had 128kb of addressable ram(split into 4 banks of lower and 4 banks of upper memory that you could swap. you could also swap in 16kb firmware blocks(above the 128k) and modify them. I managed to write up to 160kb before crashing. :)

@straceX It is not magic so much as bit-level cheating. Reinterpret the float as an integer, do a wild approximation using the exponent structure, then refine once and ship 🚀 What is your favorite hack that only made sense because hardware was slower?

In 1999, calculating 3D lighting required doing 1 / sqrt(x) millions of times a second. CPUs back then would completely choke on this math. so the developers of Quake III used this literal black magic code instead. How the hell does 0x5f3759df calculate a square root?👇

@adahstwt microsoft store -> edge -> chrome -> uninstall edge -> stop posting rage bait :P

you won’t believe this 😭 so I bought a new laptop today did the whole setup uninstalled Microsoft Edge now I have… no browser how do you install a browser without a browser....am I cooked? 😭

As a developer,what will you choose ?

@ThatMarocs @MrModez I run a potato laptop and a potato desktop. In the past i've used software and played games that have gotten pretty upgrades that have made them unusable on my setup so that's my primary concern. If it's not bloat then awesome. :)

@workshopcraft @MrModez Believe it or not, people like pretty things. Adding a 1mb in exchange for that is a deal almost everyone would take. 🤷

can't believe this is Godot 😤 #godot #godotengine #gamedev

@MrModez performance. I run a potato laptop and a potato desktop. In the past i've used software and played games that have gotten pretty upgrades that have made them unusable on my setup so that's my primary concern. If it's not bloat then awesome. :)

@workshopcraft Bloat cognitively or performance-wise?

@LTNGames @MrModez I'm thinking about the extra load when you have a bajillion entities open 🤣

@workshopcraft @MrModez It's probably 5kb or less worth of code to make this happen.

@FeedCoreClip CD Player???

StableRonaldo gets GIFTED a CD player with Minecraft music in his PO box "This is the greatest gift ever" ❤️‍🩹

@Lord_Arse I still have it on CD... somewhere >.<

Did you play Theme Hospital?

It's important to have perspective. I'm tired after a long week but I rebuilt a staff portal, updated a task management tool, built an electorn app to manage a couple of S3 buckets and created a game for my son to practice his times tables on his amazon fire. That's a lot!

@his4Everz try mug vs glass vs plastic drink bottle. same water. all taste different :)

Neurodivergent friends, does water have a taste? To me, even bottled waters all taste different.

@vibeonX69 that's most websites gone, I'll be rich and busy

If Linux disappears tomorrow, what will you do? -Switch to Mac -Back to Windows -Build my own OS

@straceX Look up the Luhn Algorithm

As a developer, have you ever wondered: You type a 16‑digit card number and the form instantly says “Invalid card number”. There are billions of possible numbers. How the hell is that check that fast?

@justbyte_ I suppose you could just about do that with PHP or Javascript

Dear developers, guess the programming language

why has the sky got lights all over it going in all different directions with different brightnesses. It's barmy up there right now

@yokel_abductee @RayReynoldsNMS Yup. Love the descent into slop 🤣

@workshopcraft @RayReynoldsNMS did you see the og post this is meme'ing?

This broke containment yesterday from you lovely folks who know I love a bitta shithousery and now my mentions are full of stroke literature and spanners asking gronk why they can't read. 5/7 Would do again.

@GregBaldwinIroh butter. optionally some brown sauce. depends what you like really

British blokes…. I’ve purchased several “tins” of Heinz (British) beans because the idea of beans on toast intrigues me. I eagerly anticipate a tasting. Other than toasting bread and heating beans… Are there any other steps/ingredients?
