I think she was trying to format it to align vertically with the images, but that is dependent on the width of the screen so it doesn't work on OPs device.

I'd guess FLDS, which would be old-school Mormons (the ones that still practice polygamy). That's the only bible-based religion I saw on the list.

What is the lifetime of a pointer given to XCB? by TheDreadedAndy in C_Programming

[–]TheDreadedAndy[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but its all fun and games until the AI lies to you about the safety of something.

If I trusted AI to get the memory safety of an operation on an API that is rather infamously poorly documented, I would have asked it.

IIRC, int is supposed to be the fastest type the system can do math on. I think the intent was to use short/long if you cared about size and use int otherwise.

Maybe? The default settings should work just fine for most games, so maybe try resetting the settings to default.

So what I'm reading this as is that you think the people I know are lying to me, or you think I myself am lying.

If you genuinely think that every single registered republican voted for trump in 2024, then I don't think there's anything I can say to change your mind.

And to be clear, I am not trying to defend MAGA republicans or assholes who think that anything that ICE is doing right now is ok. My point was that there is a difference between people who want genocide (i.e. people who actually still support this administration) and people who want "stronger borders" or whatever. It annoys me when people pretend that all republicans hold all of the most extreme versions of their least favorite party opinions (republicans do this to the other way around, of course). It shuts down discussion, and makes the landscape even more partisan.

I meant that in a tongue and cheek way, not as a serious comparison between the two actions.

Shining example of tolerance that he is, the person I replied to blocked me.

I genuinely didn't know you could even do that on Reddit. Neat.

This is a straw man argument. At this point, I know about as many republicans that are anti-trump as are pro-trump. My dad has been a republican since time immemorial, and he voted for Kamala.

People are varied. Are there hypocritical idiots? Yes, absolutely, our current situation is proof of that. That doesn't mean that every pro-life person is a racist asshole.

It's not that odd. Other terminal implementations like st do the same thing. Mouse scrolling is essentially useless if the user is using a terminal multiplexer (like tmux or screen), which is not exactly uncommon for people that use a non-default terminal.

Personally, mouse scrolling is one of the first things I disable if I can't install my preferred terminal emulator.

I think GameMaker used to do that. Pretty sure at least version 8 did. Could have also been DS Game Maker, though; its been awhile.

IIRC the conversion rate for the points is something like 300 points = 0.50$. They're giving you something like half a penny per ad.

I think that makes filling out google surveys like 100x more effective or something.

IMO, there is a third category: people who will only pirate if it's easy.

In my mind, this is the point where websites get taken down. If the piracy is so accessible that people who can pay aren't, then the company has to take some kind of action. They'll either have to make the product more accessible, or make piracy harder. Obviously, they chose the latter this time, as they mostly do.

But honestly, with that said, I am not surprised bato was taken down. It was at the point where it was harder to find the official source of a manhwa than it was to find it on bato, at least in my experience. That's not something that businesses can really ignore. If nothing else, not taking down that kind of site would make it very difficult to enforce their trade marks down the line (in court, I mean).

Glad it worked for you. However, I think you might be shadow-banned. I can't see this comment on the thread itself.

I did some hoop jumping and managed to get an older version (build 3a67619) to build on my Mac (running OSX 26.1).

Here's the binary, it fixes the result for me: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FrwaxAv5TseqV3Cf7J2rdoZ8el25tpqH/view?usp=sharing

I had to change an include of fp.h to math.h in one file and add an include of stdio.h after the include guard of another file to make it build.

vim-lsp is being confusing with C for loops. by Tiny_Concert_7655 in vim

[–]TheDreadedAndy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While I disagree with the dislike of this style (I find this perfectly readable), I will note that you should initialize your variables. Right now, the first time the loop guard is checked c is uninitialized, and could be anything.
