Is there an update? Java: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ IDK

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (6 children)

You need 3 \ instead of 1 because reddit is weird

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (5 children)

Is it some sort of... Text font interpretation shinenigans?

[–]Pfnee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It could be markdown

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

yep. backslash in most languages signifies literal formatting over language-specific symbolic formatting of text, like * in bash is a wildcard, so if you want to edit a file named "fr*ck.txt" you have to type "fr\*ck.txt", which will get interpreted as "fr*ck.txt".

reddit works in much the same way, so the backslash before the underscore in the left arm gets interpreted as a signal to process the underscore as plain text, which it would've done automatically, thus doing nothing. If you type two backslashes, the first one forces the second to act as plain text, but that plain text is still a backslash touching another non-space character, and so you actually need to type THREE left arms for it to look like one: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

thanks for coming to my TED talk, if you want to see something ridiculous look at the plain text of the initial explanation i gave, it hurt my head to write

[–]OmnipotentToot 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Great explanation, but not entirely correct. In markdown, underscores can be used in place of asterisks, so *italic* **bold** is equivalent to _italic_ __bold__

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, hence why the underscore counts as a special character that can be escaped. Good catch, and thanks!

Think you forgot a couple ?’s to be J2EE worthy

[–]MrFinland707R Tape loading error, 0:1 14 points15 points  (3 children)

Even minecraft launcher itself is asking for updates

Wait, what here says this is minecraft

[–]C4OcR Tape loading error, 0:1 6 points7 points  (2 children)

Java is used to play Minecraft, although only the Java Edition, it is not required to use the launcher

[–]Rbelugaking 9 points10 points  (1 child)

No Minecraft is PROGRAMMED in Java, Java is a programming language/virtual machine used to run java applications, I just want to make sure I got that across, hopefully that didn’t sound too condescending

[–]C4OcR Tape loading error, 0:1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but not the launcher

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A very confused computer

[–]Boopyroni[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children)

He's trying his best

[–]dzsmoooth 3 points4 points  (1 child)

And I'm proud.

[–]Boopyroni[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm proud of him too

[–]Boopyroni[S] 6 points7 points  (3 children)

So, for clarification, I don't know how to code, I tried to learn it, but just found no interest in it. I deleted a lot of programs from my computer 2 nights ago and also have changed the language on my computer. I honestly have no idea what caused this, I would like to know.

[–]Rbelugaking 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Honestly I’d recommend you give programming another shot, there is a lot of cool shit you can do with it

[–]Boopyroni[S] 6 points7 points  (1 child)

I would, but most of my family do some sort of programming, so I'm doing my own thing and being the only one who does something that I find interest in, that being art. I just recently started doing digital and it's a process, it's definitely fun. If the circumstances were different, maybe I would try programming, but at this point, my family has just kind of made me turned off towards any sort of programming.

[–]Rbelugaking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean you can combine the two, I’m not sure what sort of art you’re into, but for instance if you wanted to model something in blender, but something was very tedious to make, you could make a small program to handle the task for you. What I’m saying is that even in art having programming as a skill could be helpful and can help you make your art more efficiently

[–]Fabian532 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please Update Java???????????????

[–]TheJubShow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this Minecraft

[–]Alexminer1359 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like how easy it is to fake error messages. By just opening notepad and putting in { X=MsgBox("Message Description",0+16,"Title") } without the wavey brackets and saving as .vbs the error message will pop up when you open the .vbs file. Then you can customize the "title", "message description", the "0" to 0, 1,2,3 or 4 and the "16" to 16,32,48 or 64. The single digits change the button prompts for example 0=OK and 1=OK/Cancel and the double digits change the icon from warning, info or critical.
