Doing a quick skim on my phone, your microphone quality is fine. I would probably lower the game audio in post a bit to make the sound more distinct, but it’s only noticeable when the game does loud stuff.

I’ve had a lot of games that I found online, thought they looked fun, then discovered I actually had them in my steam library already and never once touched them.

Yes.

Chaotic evil: Send SIGSEGV

I’m a Loss Prevention Manager.

I just wanted to know how computers worked when I was fairly young. Like, I’d open a web browser and look at the homepage, and think “But how does the computer know how to draw all this stuff?” As in, how do you take an image of something from real life, and over the internet put that image on somebody’s screen for them to see? Or how does it know what to do when I click this icon and run a program?

I found out about a popular programming language called C++, asked my parents to buy me a book on it while we were at the book store. Learned a lot, moved on to other languages for other things I wanted to do. It’s still a fun hobby, but I never opted to make a career out of it.

This site has a bunch of samples in various programming languages for an X11 Hello World, including Assembly.

The user never had much choice to begin with. If I write a program using version 1.2.3 of a library, then my application is going to need version 1.2.3 installed. But how the user gets 1.2.3 depends on their system, and in some cases, they might be entirely unable unless they grab a flatpak or appimage. I suppose it limits the ability to write shims over those libraries if you want to customize something at that level, but that’s a niche use-case that many people aren’t going to need.

In a static linked application, you can largely just ship your application and it will just work. You don’t need to fuss about the user installing all the dependencies at the system level, and your application can be prone to less user problems as a result.

The only thing I really miss is doing data calculations in Google because I have shitty Internet and I want to know how many hours I’ve gotta let this thing download before I get my bandwidth back.

At this point, the community is clean. So unless more is posted, then you should be good. If someone searched for the community and caused a preview to load while the content was active though, then it could be an issue.

From what I was informed, purging a post doesn’t remove the associated cached data. So I didn’t take any chances.

Not really. You could technically locate the images and determine precisely which ones they are from their filenames, but that means you actually have to view the images long enough to pull the URL. I had no desire to view them for even a moment, and just universally removed them.

As mentioned in my edit above though, ensure you are in compliance with local regulations when dealing with the material in case you have to do any preservation for law enforcement or something.

I’m on 1.18.4, once I deleted the most recent images, the former CSAM posts(among others) became broken images. So yes, it was pulling from local disk cache. Then I took care of the posts themselves after the content was invalidated.

I think Dwarf Fortress is going to hold the crown for ultimate fantasy world simulator. I don’t think ES6 will allow for systematic breeding and killing of mer-children for their valuable bones.

Reminds me of Obsidian, which is what I use for notes. But obsidian isn’t selfhosted. I might actually host a copy of that because it’s cool

You can host a webmail like roundcube or similar. I don’t know if they can be turned into PWAs with phone notifications though.

I often grab a pirated copy to see if I like it first, and if I do, I’ll buy it. If I play it once or twice and don’t really get much out of it, I’m not out anything but some download time.

My coworker has a friend that works for a company that sends her to Dubai fairly often. She gets paid a metric ton of money for it, apparently, but outside of work spends most of her time in her hotel room.

There is actually a system in the works called FedNow that banks here can sign up to be a part of to allow national money transfer between any two people. Probably a lot of banks aren’t taking part yet since it’s barely a couple weeks old, but it’s promising.
