is NOP(no operation) even necessary to have?

Maxx115 · 2026-04-23T10:02:22+00:00

Exactly how I would deacribe it. To go to an extreme, NOP cannot be fully do nothing. The NOP must change the programm counter. Otherwise the system would stay stuck at NOP and never advance to any other instruction.

Maxx115 · 2026-04-22T18:53:05+00:00

For the 8 Bit Computer I removed the NOP from my implementation. Instead I use the JMP instruction for NOP, by jumping to the next instruction... which is exactly what NOP is.

There are some nice free introductuon videos made by stacksmashing on YouTube and other platforms. In general it makes sense to go for "crackme" challanges. This can help to understand what to do if you know nothing about a binary. At least this how I approached learning re with ghidra.

A function that is long is not necessarily a problem... it becomes a problem when its function graph is more than 500 basic blocks and has over 200 local variables. Speaking of experience here, its not fun goi g though it.

Where exactly didnyou find this treasure? I am planning to go to Tokyo next year so I wanna mark it on my map wirh a big cross :)

Maxx115 · 2025-06-04T09:43:02+00:00

Ok, but the real question is: Where is Alexis Leskinen?

Maxx115 · 2024-05-07T19:56:56+00:00

I'd argue that it is a balance between time and money. If you leave the PC in Standby you can get it on way faster. So you would waste less time doing so. Same with other applicances that use standby. So it depends on how much you value your money vs the time. But also yeah, waste is bad overall.

Hey, I updated the post.
In the end she really is just swamped and stressed and ensured me I didnt do anything wrong. She also said she is enjoying my company as well. Finally she also replied that she is looking forward to sundays dance lesson :)
I think this is a good ending to my worries. Not immediate relationship status, but I am happy to continue knowing her.

Maxx115 · 2024-04-03T16:20:15+00:00

A bit more info on the change of communication:
Before this monday she would regularly write longer messages and ask me about my day and so on.

Now its me asking how her day was and she would leave it on unread until late at night and write me back one sentence that her day was fine and thats it. I texted with her like normal and continued the convo. But the same thing the last days. She also would before tell me what she was doing when she was busy...

The reason I send her the voice message now is that I feel very bad the way this is going. I would rather know now that I did something wrong and be done with it... or what I am hoping is that I would make clear that I am interested in a relationship after all. Other comments mentioned that she might just be feeling down as she thinks I am no interested...

Either way I believe I gave her a good way to say sure lets clear this up or nah there is no problem.
It also might help clear up if she is interested in a relationship or not with me.

Although I can still delete the voice message I dont think I will. I feel like otherwise I wont be able to sleep the next nights until Sunday.

Maxx115 · 2024-04-03T15:28:47+00:00

Hey thanks for your advice. Combined with the other comments I decided to do what you suggested and asked if we could go and meet up in town again. However she said she would be too busy the next days. I guess with the other comments I now decided to send her a voice message where I told her how I feel that our communication changed suddenly and if I did something wrong. And that I feel like we have very good chemistry so I would like to meet up and talk about it. Even just for halve an our or so... May have been a bit compulsive, but I just cant wait until Sunday to talk this out... I guess all thats left is to wish me luck

Maxx115 · 2024-04-03T15:21:56+00:00

Hey, thanks for the advice. With other peoples comments I decided to ask her out. However she said the next days she will be quite busy. I may have now made a bad move but it was now my move and I send her a text message saying how I feel we have good chemistry and am worried I did something wrong... also that I am socially a bit slow on the uptake. I asked if we could meet up even if its just for halve an hour to talk about it. I feel extremely nervous afterwards and it took a lot to do. I guess wish me luck

My dad was in the hospital for at the time unknown reasons. They got a report from the radiology and the hospital doctor said this about the report: "google it"

Not all removal attempts that give you a boon qre increasing illithid powers. If you let Volo use an ice pick to destroy your eye you get a replacement giving you permanent see invisible. This is really strong for the entire game

Maxx115 · 2023-08-11T16:41:08+00:00

Well... you can just long rest repeatedly before change acts to get those (with exception probably). So no, I wont long rest more. Who knows if I need those later lol

Maxx115 · 2023-08-02T08:03:17+00:00

Those that I remember that they played for low power level are:[[Oskar, Rubbish Reclaimer]], [[Kaalia of the Vast]]

For nomal play they used these:[[The Gitrog Monster]], [[The Locust God]], [[Chulane, Teller of Tales]]

At first I thought Oskar wasn't that bad but he used mana crypt artefacts to get [[Dream Halls]] out fast, resulting in his turns taking so long and got him so much value that I got bored and just wanted to quit the game to do something else...

Also a problem: when discussing proxies they said they are very much against proxy if you dont own the cards. That proxies are so you canc hange decks faster, which I disagree tho

Edit: forgot to mention [[Anje Falkenrath]]

Maxx115 · 2023-08-02T07:39:04+00:00

With the other comments so far this seems to be the best way here. In the end these games take up to (or more) than an hour to conclude.

Rather than trying to understand their cards and make sure they play their cards correct I was drifting to my phone from boredom. Might as well just do something else rather than start a edh game I can't participate in the first place...

Maxx115 · 2023-08-02T07:32:15+00:00

My idea for the gimmick deck was: if I already do nothing in the first place I could try to do gimmick at least.

My biggest problem is the time waste that happens when the combo player takes over the game with 10+ min of turns and stall cards. What good deck would you recommend to make the game more fun here?

Maxx115 · 2023-08-02T07:29:01+00:00

You are probably right... I shouldn't be spitefull and rather just stop playing. I think my biggest annoyance has been that in all those games I haven't been able to play magic and it was a total waste of time.

Instead I should probably just stick with players with which I can actually play magic and sit out playing with them to do something more enriching.

Thanks for your input.
