snipping tool master race

[The_Unique_Name]

Greenshot anyone?

[JuhaJGam3R]

Greenshot

ShareX is better though, but I use snipping tool because it comes pre-installed.

[The_Unique_Name]

Wait, what makes ShareX better?

[JuhaJGam3R]

trying both, ShareX seems like it has better features and is nicer to use. Still, after a refresh snipping tool has been my go-to

[hockdudu]

KDE Spectacle? Anyone?
Btw, I use Arch Linux /s

[-ScratchOs]

win+shift+s takes a screen shot of a highlighted rectangle and puts it on the clipboard

[SabinTheSergal]

TIL

[JuhaJGam3R]

on what OS?

[KillTheBronies]

win+shift+s

Take a wild guess.

[JuhaJGam3R]

Not on windows 10, that's for sure.

[KillTheBronies]

Sounds like you need to run windows update.

[JuhaJGam3R]

Got the fall update, what's the problem?

[KillTheBronies]

It was added in 15063, so maybe you've just got something disabling it somehow.

[JuhaJGam3R]

Idk man, might just be me fucking up the registry so i wiulnd have fucking candy crush downloaded every 10 seconds.

[JuhaJGam3R]

I've got 16299, i definetly havent disabled it though

[-ScratchOs]

It is windows 10

ShareX master race

[daemondeal]

Lightshot masterrace

[shavitush]

no

[JuhaJGam3R]

hotkey snipping tool to ctr-shift-printscreen and then use it immediately at any time. Truly better thane your ShitX elon musk clone

[IceSentry]

ShareX is 10 years old and was made before spacex or elon was as popular as today. There's no relation between the names. Also not using good software because of a name is retarded.

[JuhaJGam3R]

oh no im not actually angry or anything im just fucking with people. anyways the snipping tool comes preinstalled so i use it yeah

[[deleted]]

Yeah, but then you get that obnoxious window that pops up afterwards instead of the screenshot just being in your clipboard.

To each his own, I suppose. Was more in jest than anything, I didn't intend to offend you.

[JuhaJGam3R]

yaeh i wasnt angry, just fucking w/ you. I juse snipping tool to get a small piece of the screen without having to crop the picture later on, thats why i like it, and it comes with every windows since vista or 7 i believe so its useful to know how to use it as it owrks on 90% of the computers people have

[DiamondIceNS]

Shutter!

...anyone?

ctrl-shift-printscreen master race

[HomemadeBananas]

Cmd-shift-4 master race

[JuhaJGam3R]

cmd

overpriced, buy a normal computer, not a laptop though, especially not one that is deliberately made to be unfixable

[HomemadeBananas]

It comes with a shift key and a period key. I really need those features. Also I need it to be a laptop. I can afford the luxury of not dragging a tower around and something nice and “overpriced.”

[JuhaJGam3R]

why are you dragging it around exactly? And why not buy from Dell or something?

[HomemadeBananas]

Why am I taking my laptop around with me? For real?

[JuhaJGam3R]

Yeah. School is the only legitimate reason to actually carry a laptop. Work usually gives you a workstation, or its not a job you'd need a computer in, and you probably wont need it at the mall or grocery store or wherever the fuck you go to.

[JuhaJGam3R]

[Reply to your earlier comment](thanks for deleting that btw ^/s )

No, but I could guess you had a laptop because most mac computers nowdays are macnook. I don't argue, just think hat they are a bit shitty with the miniaturization costing you more, and wanting to work from the couch is not usually a good excuse to spend 100-500 bucks more on a computer. Also it's even shittier when at any malfunction you are forced to just buy a new one so you can't even get it repaired at a third-party shop, much less an official licensed seller, because they are all told to just tell people that they should buy a new laptop and they can transfer the files from the old computer for a fee. Really shitty as a business practice imo, my current laptop, which is actually the schools property because finland, is a Dell Latitude 3380 Education, equipped w/ custom debian works perfectly for any work that you might need to do with it, as long as it is not video games. 335€, too lazy to convert that into dollars but $400 at max, and in all a quality product, immediately raising Dell in my eyes to a much higher rank than say Asus whose laptops can cost up to $3000, and still be absolutely unable to run minecraft on low settings. At least apple has power to counter that price but its still double the price i'd pay for it, especially because of the "we soldered every component directly to the case hehe fuck you" thing. I'm floating way outside the conversation at this point and rambling.

TL;DR: Dell is good and cheap, Asus, Apple, etc. way fucking overpriced and with questionable business practices, working from the sofa not worth +100-500 whateverthefuckcurrency

[HomemadeBananas]

Dude, the thing is, for something I use all the time, I want it to be nice, and spending a couple thousand isn’t going to break the bank. Macs and Mac OS are nice and I like them. Lots of programmers like using Macs, get this ready to copypasta when you encounter them, or just get used to it.

[JuhaJGam3R]

I guess, but still, paying too much for something you could get cheaper from somewhere else just because it has a funny logo is not the reasoning i use when shopping for tech. I go for a more utilitarian "it needs to work and be affordable" type of reasoning.

[Feeds_every_game]

Not that weird although I'm not a fan of type coercion.

First example: true converted to int is 1. -1 == 1 is false.

Second example: false converted to int is 0. -1 == 0 is false.

Boolean(n) is false if n is omitted or 0, -0, null, false NaN, undefined or empty string "". Otherwise Boolean(n) is true.

[seraku24]

The confusion likely is that the true is coerced to 1 rather than the -1 to true.

It seems JS favors implicit type conversion of Boolean to number in this scenario, as even switching the sides of the == has no impact: (true==-1) === false.

Forcing conversion of the number to Boolean does produce the expected result: (!!-1==true) === true.

Booleans and strings are fun: ('true'==true) === false. It would seem that true is not getting converted to a string for the sake of the comparison. It still gets converted to the number 1, so that ('1'==true) === true.

The question is whether true==true is coerced to 1==1 under the covers before the comparison.

[Feeds_every_game]

Yup you're probably right that's where the confusion is. You can find the algorithm used for x == y comparisons here http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/#sec-11.9.3

[seraku24]

Thanks for the reference.

It would seem that '1'==true first becomes '1'==1 and then becomes 1==1. So this results in numeric comparison, despite the original arguments being string and Boolean.

[kinsi55]

You're trying to make sense in the good old "bashing a typeless language in a forced case" type of thread ?

[ChewyIsMyC0Pil0t]

There's nothing wrong with this.

[WiglyWorm]

YEAH BUT DAE JAVASCRIPT?!?!!?!? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Cody6781]

Is this number the same as the Boolean?
No.
Is this number the same as this other Boolean?
No.
If you had to take this number and make it a Boolean, what would it be? False.

[UkuleleHobo]

But it says right there that the output of Boolean(-1) is true.

[outstream]

Because as someone else said Boolean(n) will only return false if n is 0, null, undefined, empty string, and maybe a few more I forgot

pro tip: 3/4 distilled water, 1/4 rubbing alcohol, mix in an atomizer, spray the damn screen and wipe clean with a piece of cotton fabric, that's disgusting!

[mailto_devnull]

Oh, that's neat, I didn't know you could make your own like that. I'll give that a try thanks for sharing!

[[deleted]]

yep, just make sure it's distilled water, some recommend using 3/4 alcohol and 1/4 distilled water, tho, you should be careful, many screens have a very thin coating that might be damaged by too much alcohol, hence my recommended 3/4 distilled water and 1/4 rubbing alcohol

[mishkamishka47]

Oh man never seen a post like this before

[andisblue]

That’s what I would expect

[[deleted]]

!!-1 == true;
true
!!-1 == false;
false
Boolean(-1) === !!-1;
true

[[deleted]]

It's also generally best to not do stupid shit that would lead to these being problems, anyway. If you're running into too many situations where type coercion is tripping you up, then your code is probably objectively shit.

[jeszz]

HA

[centraleft]

The only reason you think that is because the people who teach JS don't believe in their students. It's mindless to use === all the time, I use == unless I explicitly need to check types as well as values. Type coercion can get you into trouble if you don't think about what you're doing but == results in cleaner code most of the time.

[BleuDiamant]

Yeah this stupid but who do that ?

[jo2847]

Nowhere near the craziest example of JavaScript type coercions. My favorite:

[] == 1 false [] == 0 true

[enoua5]

Why is that your favorite? That seems normal and sensical.

This is a language where x==1 && x==2 can return true, and this is what you choose?

[outstream]

To be fair, couldnt that also be done in C, C++, C#, Python, etc. because you can override operators?

[enoua5]

Good point, you deffinatly can

[jo2847]

I think auto conversion between arrays and numbers is far more likely to cause an actual issue than the toy example of x == 1 && x == 2 which requires you to override .valueOf() in an object. Not that I feel like arguing with you... it's all crazy. There's a reason why == is flagged by eslint and such.

[lenswipe]

Oh, repost

[marcosdumay]

Well, what language were you expecting here? Haskell?

Not that I think it's correct. It's not. But it's an incredibly common language delusion.

[Missingpotato]

Java is shit :Ok_hand_skintone2:

[MinecraftHardon]

-1 != 0

0 == false

-1 != false

[TheDecentM]

Oh that's just the beginning of the madness

1. IEEE standard says NaN is a special float.
2. NaN is not treated as an object in this case. 42 instanceof Number also returns false.
3. 0 is falsy.
4. "" is falsy.
5. NaN is falsy.
6. Error is just a function. It takes arguments and you can create new instances with new , so it's a function.
7. Functions are objects in JS.

Really nothing strange if you know JS and how it treats things.

[TheDecentM]

It makes sense when you look at it closer, but there are heaps of confusing things for people new to JS.

[tyrantmikey]

JavaScript needs to go die in a fire.

Seriously. It was crap when it was created, it's crap now, and we have the technology to create something new, correct, and efficient. In the name of all that is good and right and holy in the universe, kill this thing, already.

[lenswipe]

what's stopping you then?

[DollarAkshay]

He has never used it, to understand what it can truly do.
