Thanks for your detailed reply, that was what i was after. I wasn't having a go at Nix or their decision, just wanted to understand the why in the choice. Your two responses have helped explained that.

I agree with Guix, the whole package really appeals to me. I found the same issues between Nix vs Guix, having to do a lot more fiddling to get to where i wanted to be.

Guess next time I will word my statements better :)

This is great, would love to understand why Nix over Lix or Guix.

What couch co-op games do you play with the kids?

Didn't know about Unhook, seems like a great extension to use.

Is eMIPS something along the same idea https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/emips/ ?

that is awesome

I think it is the boiling frog experience. It has just slowly happened over time, and sometimes they push too hard and get blow back. So you step it down a notch but keep pushing forward until one day you look back and can't remember a day where there were no ads.

I have ad free household. We treat ads like a poison, like there's a fire. Over the top reaction to shut them down if they creep in. It has taught my own child to avoid ads like the plague (unlike their peers).

I have no idea how people use the Internet with all the ads, no blockers. It is just bonkers, and even at work it is an uphill battle to convince people ad-blockers should be enforced just to protect the business from malicious ads, let alone their own brains.

I want to lobby to have all adverts removed from public transport, but I am unsure how to do that in Australia, but I will work it out.

I remember playing Gods, was a great looking platformer.

I guess we call advertisers hippo butt leaches now? haha, i like that analogy of yours.

Love that one, and recently this one too, QUOD https://daivuk.itch.io/quod

Well this is a shame. I hit this, this morning, without knowing about the change. Guess my journey with Reddit ends here.

Do you have a link to your books so we can check them out?

I have a similar story, forced to use LLMs like a lot of us, and like yourself I come home and play with Picotron and TIC-80 to create fun little things, no AI.

Its a great joy, I wish to keep.

Wouldn't you need a marauder for that?

I keep reading all these posts about terminal slowness, and here i am just sticking with Konsole + fish + starship.rs. Seems fine and responsive to me.

Time to take out the CP/M machine from the closet, :)

In C a[i] is converted to *(a+i) internally. i[a] is converted to *(i+a). Array names also act as pointers in c. so (a+i) or (i+a) give an address (using pointer arithmetic) that is dereferenced using *

I didn't understand why a[3] == 3[a], but i found this stackoverflow that explains it.

Id like to understand how this creates a monopoly. It isn't banning the re-sale of tickets, just limits the sale to less than or equal to original cost of ticket.

Have you tried a firefox fork like Librewolf? Not saying it makes a difference but it feels faster on my desktop compared to regular firefox.

This one looks to be the active fork, https://github.com/benstone/3DMMEx

i should have read the article first...

We added other weapons to make a poor mans scorched earth as we were only allowed to make games.

You could try Lazarus + FreePascal or even Delphi

I love FreeCAD, designed some parts, did a bunch of Solidworks challenges and entered CAD comps.

I also love playing with build123d, dune3d (uses solvespace constraint) and SolveSpace.

Do love Solidworks but I'm on linux now so time to embrace the other options more.

Cargo cult represent! How good are they, aye. I bought one 2 months ago, had it for 2 weeks and already done 200+kms on it, and that has saved me $60 in fuel so far. It is great for getting around and grabbing shopping last minute, going to work and just feeling more connected and happy.

This is great, i use a 3x3 font i drew up for lowres games, though there are many example that look mostly the same since it is such a small space.

Yeah, second the norgb option. Even more annoying when openrgb just randomly hangs scanning devices and now im stuck with rainbows i cant turn off!

You gotta love it, simple and straight to the point.

What keyboard did you modify and why?

Excellent new release, now for Fennel and Love2d to update, fun times!
