I got my account locked on BLU because I stopped seeding when my RAID went down. I was able to recover the data and get back up in about 24 hours but there was literally no recourse other than begging some random mod's reddit account.
Always sad to see a tracker go down, but this place was a shit show.
The only thing Samba is really great for is interop with Windows. If that's not an issue, Dolphin can browse SFTP directly by adding it as a network share (you may need to setup a password-less key pair to avoid having to login). SSHFS is a similar option and works even if the client is totally naive (it just looks like any other mounted FS).
Wow, that's a lot. We had 119 last year and thought that was a lot. It's still only 8:25 here but we're on pace for maybe 80 this year.
Right. GCC -f optimizations are basically like "how hard are we going to try to be clever" and are, I believe, orthogonal to the actual instructions used. Machine dependent args start with -m, like -march or -mavx etc.
This. So much this. I hate what Discovery did with S31. The Federation isn't the Federation with an official black ops gestapo running around.
Also, I love Michelle Yeoh but I am way more interested in the Capt. Georgiou we missed out on than the genocidal maniac Empress we got.
I feel guilty about it, but I appreciate the monthly pass. I played EUIV for exactly one month, at a total cost of like $7 (got the base game for free at some point) with all the bells and whistles. It seemed like a good compromise because you'd have to pay it for years at this point to cover the DLC out right, but it is a disgusting level of rent seeking behavior.
Now it bothers me that I'd need to put another $7-$10 into the machine to access those saves, but not as much as if I'd throw down hundreds of dollars on it to own the content for a 10 year old game.
I have a few hundred, but 5500? Sheeeit. The game is definitely evergreen though.
Can't wait for the expansion, 10/21. I've been putting off a new play through for it, and Wube always puts in so much polish (as the FFFs show).
So you're right that this is a bit arbitrary because the line between the standard lib and the language is blurry, but someone writing Rust is going to expect Vec to work, it doesn't even require an extra "use" to get it.
Perhaps a better core example would be operator overloading (or really any place using traits). When looking at "a + b" in Rust you have to be aware that, depending on the types involved, that could mean anything.
Anyway, I love Rust, it just doesn't have the 1:1 relationship with the assembly output that C basically still has.
Huh weird, these pull requests just magically accepted themselves
Rust can create native binaries but I wouldn't call it close to the metal like C. It's certainly possible to bootstrap from assembly to Rust but, unlike C, every operation doesn't have a direct analog to an assembly operation. For example Rust needs to be able to dynamically allocate memory for all of its syntax to be intact.
There are definitely some places the CGI could be improved these days (thinking distant group shots) but yeah, it's incredible how well everything else holds up 20 years later even in 4K.
