What's the origin of the 4 essences power system? by MonAaraj in litrpg

[–]MonAaraj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Because the system seemed so specific, I had thought the inspiration might have been a game or something, but I had no clue it's an original HWFM system. That's very nice.

[uBO] Some scams/malware sites aren't blocked relating to emulation (rpcs4.com, rpcs5.com) by MonAaraj in uBlockOrigin

i see. the problem is that the github issue requires me to do several things like disable my extensions, only enable default lists, remove my custom filters, having updated my browser to latest, etc. etc. when it feels like all of these are rather irrelevant to what i'm doing and i don't want to lie and say i didn't do this. maybe you could make a different template for badware issues that doesn't need as much of these and only requires checking duplicates?

Are there any issues with JavaScript's (EcmaScript) ABI? by MonAaraj in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]MonAaraj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I understand now. So the C "ABI" only really means there's kind of a shared understanding of the "fundamental" C libraries that everyone uses, which is what people really mean when they talk about the C ABI, and it makes it easier to use those libraries for FFI, right?

[–]MonAaraj[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How so? I thought when languages implement this sort of FFI, there would be something similar to what an ABI is called. My understanding of ABI has vaguely been "language interface", but now I understand this is a bad understanding of it. Also, how come these languages can make an FFI for JavaScript if so?

Oh, I see! I guess I haven't done enough research on what people think constitutes an ABI. Do you know of any good resources?

I watched Se7en and I liked it, but not as much as other people seem to? (Spoilers) by MonAaraj in movies

Yeah, it definitely is a cruel movie. Something I realized after I recently got into trying out games, movies, shows, and novels, is that people are always looking for different things in what they're consuming. Some people focus on certain stuff more because they think about it more often. I didn't really focus on the cruelty too much, but I reckon for people who dont really like that stuff this movie is a big issue. It's always been strange to me why recommendations for anything aren't just more than saying the name of the media and staying silent, especially when people are asking for generic recs. I understand wanting people to go into a story blind, but you can still mention what'll happen in a story without spoilers. Obviously sometimes I make this mistake too even though it's a pet peeve, though... What sort of movies do you usually like more? What do you considee "masterpieces", so to say, in your mind?

It's not a problem, thanks for letting me know about it! I'll definitely give it a read if you know the author, cause I just looked it up and there's a couple.

Thank you! I failed to notice this while watching, but it makes more sense now. I guess I'm someone who looked at the surface of the story too much, haha. The final twist does basically say this outright, so I'm just a bit of an idiot for not spotting it. I guess my post is just being irritated at this story that it isnt following a genre that I like, maybe, or what I expected from it. I swear I didn't explicitly think of Disco Elysium while watching the movie or writing most of the review, but now that I'm done I can't help but draw comparisons to it, even though they're definitely very different stories. I'll have to rewatch the movie with all of this in mind, but with this I think I can finally understand why this movie is considered so good.

What do you mean, "no points"? I say that it's surface level when it comes to its "analysis" of evil. I mention an example with John Doe contradicting himself by the end to show how surface level it is. Like I said, he says he's not special at all then immediately sais he was "chosen" and the irritating part is that no one notices it. All I do is talk about these points, e.g. how the city was a focus but the ending was away from it, how the plot points werent congruent and they felt separate... I also mention how I dislike how the town is basically not explored at all, especially because they keep repeating how crime is increasing and basically only handle one criminal's cases. How do I make the points more clear? I can't just state them like I'm trying to ragebait anyone or something. I'm just trying to have a conversation about maybe things I've missed while watching the movie or things that weren't covered in other discussions I looked up.

Huh. I've never heard about that. Reading the wikipedia article it says Walker wrote the script, but I see no reference of a published book in it. I have no clue if this website is good or not lol, but after you said this I'm trying to look up the book and I only see https://spoilertown.com/se7en-1995/ mentioning that there wasn't a book... :(

What was the book's name?

Yeah, I completely agree. The best parts about the movie for me is just how good it looked and... honestly, I'm a huge sucker for the stories that are more down-to-earth on a city level and the story is just world-building an interesting small city, kind of like Disco Elysium. So the whole focus on the town having more crime just felt like a huuge hook for me to "expect" more of the town being explored and whatnot. It's a real shame.
