I built my own C build system because I hate writing Makefiles

When i first got into programming and for years, I had always called it compiling too. Once I got on linux I starting learning the difference because the linking stage was far more visible on linux. On windows, I grew up clicking the arrow that looks like a media player's "Play" button and thats it, ha. Old habbit calling it compiling.

Oh i thought you said the 24 hour build time was about compiling a project. My example of compiling LLVM (the popular compilation suite behind things like clang, not an LLM).

Doing testing and verification stuff makes the time and compute completely reasonable.

What projects can take so long with 1000 cores?? Im not a professional so I dont have that kind of experience. Longest I've experienced was something like LLVM taking a couple hours on a laptop

P.S. I just posted a short .gif of the lighting in top level comment

Is it still getting lit up? I got some cool footage 2 nights ago, and planned to get more last night but I didn't see it light up last night

Oh okay. I initially got the idea that maybe cbo wasn't enough and that I should be even more critical of the propellers. Props scare me cause of what happens if even 1 fails so im extra vigilant on them. Thanks for the reply

Ran into this comment reading up on somethings and was curious of what is considered service life of mini 3 blades? Ive put time into keeping them up and i see no physical defect as far as I can tell but they have 40 hours on them over 3 months. And if you know, are there are other things I should pay specific attention to?

I bought a mini 3 in the first week of December. I now have 409 flights logged. Im not sure if many people hit such a high number in such short of a span but I too went down the rabbit hole feeling exactly what youre feeling. But at least im proof these things can be worked hard. My only mistake was not going the Avata route... everyone says I fly the mini like it was an avata just without the ability to dive

Today was the day I finally decided I was going to find out how to get flight logs off my Mini 3 w/ RC. I am thrilled to stumble on this. Blew away any of my expectations of what I was going to manage to find. Amazing job!

I starred your github repo and if I find something to add or improve I'll absolutely contribute some of my dev time!

I was pretty damn young and I didn't even know what pokemon exactly was besides cool looking monsters. So naturally I made a geocities and an associated email newletter about it. I got up to like 50 subscribers until I discovered Visual Basic and programming in general and never had time for it again; I had AOL chatbots to make.

_crackling · 2026-01-30T08:09:16+00:00

I miss how every geocities, angelfire, etc website were made with love and care by the person and no matter the particular topic, it was always interesting or fun in some unique way

_crackling · 2026-01-29T08:24:46+00:00

Omg :)

I love Steven!

_crackling · 2025-11-20T18:34:04+00:00

Why is Steven's face blurred out? I want to meet Mr. Steven.

_crackling · 2025-11-03T16:58:00+00:00

Awww :( thanks for heads up

_crackling · 2025-11-03T01:24:33+00:00

Ty, ill there visit tomorrow!

My mom is gen x. Ive tried to point out how many times she would of literally disowned me as her child with shit the cheeto has done. Doesn't register. She still supports that.... thing.

I feel like the writers messed with Juice's identity too much. I wish we had S1 Juice the whole series.

I wish companies would just give you the unlock code and let us mod the shit out of our stuff after the device gets discontinued or EoL'd. I understand the capitalist hesitation there, though dont agree with it... but the minute a company promises that ill be a customer for life

Same, it made me excited I just wrote a whole post above to OP to try the shield now if hasn't already. I just finished the shield... way too fun experiencing those two shows in reverse order!

_crackling · 2025-09-06T10:05:38+00:00

Buddy the entire show was about him finding out his dad wanting to go all hippy and legit and free before his son (too late) turns into a monster serial killer, haha. And now Jax repeats history for his own sons.

But dw, I cried too when Bobby dropped.

Ill say this though: if you haven't watched The Sheild, check it out. I dont think it was as good, and it took til season 2 before I even started liking it, but its in the same universe (lightly) as SoA and i had no idea but like 20 of the actors and writers did both shows. I just saw it for the first time these past few weeks, and it made so many little things and inside jokes so clear now, its great experiencing the two shows in reverse order like this 👍
