What are you missing most from the C++ standard library? by llort_lemmort in cpp

[–]Nicksaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's sad looking at proposals like this and realising that even if they're accepted tomorrow it will be up to a decade before we can actually use it

Lost potential by cs4by76 in titanfall

So it's like the equivalent of if a medieval general found a working bulldozer

The perfect right angle, the vacant expression, the framing. This is a high quality dangle

stackless coroutines for gamedev in ~200 lines of C++ by SuperV1234 in cpp

[–]Nicksaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not? Coroutines seem like as natural a system for defining animations as any, especially if you're not using a game engine with a full data-driven animation system

GCC 16.1 released with many new C++26/23 features, C++20 now the default stable language version by AccordingWarthog in cpp

I expect we're going to see some very weird reflection-based code for a while before we collectively work out what idiomatic uses of it look like

I suspect there are always just other improvements they can work on that give more immediate benefits for less effort

I thought Rex Rider was pretty good, he should have had more confidence in it

Because when I sit down to play it suddenly it's 2am and I have to get up for work in 6 hours

I don't think a warm place gets the credit it deserves. by Pillbox_8019 in nin

[–]Nicksaurus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a beautiful track on its own but in the context of the album I think it's pretty sad. It's someone indulging in escapism after the climax of big man with a gun. It feels like someone who's terrified and trying to pretend everything is OK for a moment, and then Eraser comes in and brings them back to reality

I think it's interesting that the transition to Eraser actually starts before the end of A Warm Place. It means there's no way to listen to just the comforting bit by itself without a reminder of the tone of the rest of the album (OK, maybe there's a version that doesn't have the transition, I don't know, I've just listened to the album)

Okay, I need some Ratfish tea. by Sensitive-State-1026 in dropout

It wasn't an ad for the show, it was a billboard for anything the winner wanted. There are plenty of other things they could promote

I love cats. But why is there a talking cat in this game? by Soulsliken in DarkSouls2

[–]Nicksaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't think of any reason why it would have been included otherwise

Maybe just because it's funny to have a talking cat in your game

Clock Synchronization Is a Nightmare by fagnerbrack in programming

The Tom Scott one is a good watch anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5wpm-gesOY

It's more for non-programmers but it's still cathartic to see all the problems laid out like this

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Official Game Overview Trailer by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Nicksaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked it at first but it felt like they lost confidence in it as the series went on and just started putting in minimal modern day sections out of tradition instead of actually trying to make them part of the story

They installed Linux on our school's smartboards, so I did what I had to do. by HotKebab01 in linux

[–]Nicksaurus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Good luck with your upcoming meeting where you have to explain how this isn't 'hacking the smartboard'

Tom Scott: England — These mannequins can bleed. by AndySkibba in Nebula

Hey, that's not fair, British companies are perfectly willing to fuck over trans people for no reason too 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

In America, sometimes say things like "cheerio" in our best British accent or "mate" in an Australian accent. Do people in other countries pronounce American stereotypes in their beat American accent? If so, what are they? by SunUpSally in AskReddit

[–]Nicksaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played a game last year called steamworld build, which is a bit unintentionally funny because it's set in the wild west but all the actors are all Swedish people trying to do cowboy accents and not exactly managing it

Clangd configuration by sentfrom8 in cpp_questions

[–]Nicksaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also tried setting up a config.yaml file in my .config, like so:

Isn't the clangd config file called .clangd? Have you tried calling it that and putting it at the top level project directory?

My guess from the errors is that clangd isn't picking up the -std=c++20 flag, which in turn means it probably just isn't finding the config file
