Classic enshittification, stage 3 I guess.

That’s a whole world 😁

Yellow-orange-red are the warmest colors, cyan the coldest (in oilpaint white is colder but that’s a whole thing in itself), I recommend Florent Farged colorwheel (it’s free, and he has youtubes explaining a lot about color):

An important thing is that the warmness or coolness is almost only relative to surrounding colors! So to make that fireball pop, make it so that naturally its surroundings are darker, colder, less ontense in color, … And so on! There is a rembrandt painting where the fire is dull but so intense because the darkness around it…

Very good, lights are good, values are good.

Now play with warm & cool colors!

WHAT A NICE UNICODE CHARSCTER YOU USED!

A robot army that will all self drive!!

Elon is so smart, bet there is some 6D Polytopia behind his plummeting (-50% in Europe) tesla sales.

He doesn’t sound very epic to me.

He said: I’m gonna be rich!

But all he got was an itch 🎶

Puts the full EU regulations in robot.txt

Okay which ethical company hires for a senior C/C++ developer?

Ah yeah gotcha. Like stuff from england, 7€ tax + 16€ “tax handling fee”…

Thanks!

As an old XP-liker I’ll probably stay on Mint then 😁

I’m an idiot, from Mint.

Serious question, I’m a basic linux user (commandline and shell scripting, crontab, python…) what would I see/feel as different if I switched to Zorin OS?

Edit from mint

Is it difficult to buy stuff trom Europe in Egypt?

Checking leboncoin (french place where people sell & buy stuff) there are lots of em for 20€ +p&p

But there are also these kinds, for 10€, I almost want to make a RAID6 with a bunch just to see

In paris there was this street “rue Montgallet” selling computer stuff like that around y2000, the prices for the most sold things were printed on a cheap paper daily or you had to ask. Guarantee? Yes, but it stops when you leave the shop, or so was the saying.

Sells st a lower price: the web: they were Ruthlessly undercutting!!

They even don’t need to lower prices to “undercut”, just not raise them too much!

Yeah but even second hand drives are stupid-priced today. No, I dont want to buy your 2014 1TB drive for 25€ + shipping.

I can’t wait for this to pop, I mean if it does in a way that produces selloffs.

Black Adder?

Putting too many game mechanics into a game, like fighting system, bonus crystals, combinations of stuff to upgrade other stuff, plus pets, minigames, repetable quests, party combinations, crosswords, and more, in a single player game especially.

And dark patterns of course.

The main parts are the dependency of your files ofc, if they all depends on file A, then that A has to be compiled first, mono tread. Secondly depending on your project (is it lots of dlls or one biig executable) the linker might be a big choke point, as it’s kind of mono threaded (per project).

CCache can be fantastic, I worked on a 700-project soft (one executable), almost 2GB cpp source code, full recompile took around 2h on a modern 10/20 CPU, just compiling was often a drag but with cache it shrank compile times way more than any multiprocessing could.

If you’re several working on a big project you can share the build cache too, so your rebuild will be almost instant because your co-workers have already compiled everything except your changes.
