I’m not murican, I only know that the US supreme court has at least 9 justices. 3 is a significant number, but not a majority, and only half of the 6 votes that said “akshually, public officers receiving gifts after doing a favor isn’t bribery”
Truly, the best democracy money can buy. “This was the supreme court”, all of which was appointed by different presidents in different time periods, so a direct consequence of political will
I think Godot handles the despawn decently, my problem is that many graphical nodes are loaded but kept invisible/hidden until needed, things I’ll keep in mind whenever I go for another project.
Other than that, a lot was due to my shoddy practice of leaving single pieces as a 1000x1000 images, instead of a ~40x100 like the arm, the RAM savings are significant
All of the above are mainly for 2D graphics, but some folks made versions of LOVE3D, too. There’s also libgdx, which builds on top of lwjgl, and mini2Dx, which builds on top of libgdx
For 3D, the first one that comes to mind is Ogre3D

I have some experience with Godot, it certainly speeds up a lot of the creation, but it also has some asinine decisions that I seriously don’t understand, like keybindings being a protected array: you can’t alter an item on a specific position; so, if you have a default + alternative key for an action, and you want to let players customize their keybinds, you essentially have to copy the whole array, make the alteration, delete the keybinds then add the items from the altered copy.
If you add a gamepad to the mix, making each action have 3 inputs, you also have to keep track of positions, otherwise your option to change a specific key might accidentally change from a different position of the array.
Also, never tie your platformer’s jump logic to the game’s framerate (delta), unless you want players running on less capable machines suffering.
How would you rate your near death experience?
Trump is confidently stating lie after lie after lie, basically the condensed version of his recent speeches main lies.
I think it’s time to change the name of the Gish Gallop into a Trump Torrent… Or maybe not, that would feed into the orange troll’s narcisism
Can’t outrun the fine if she can note down your license plate
“Dearest [gentleman/madame], I sincerely wish that thy behind be filled with a solid apparatus in an uncomfortable manner.”
How else are they supposed to tell the entire world they are massive dicks with micro penises?

Roblox is what zuckerfuck wish his metaverse could become. Millions of kids playing, another thousands working effectively for free to create content, and the very few that actually find success see that getting any money out of Roblox and into their bank accounts is hard as hell and comes with exorbitant taxes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXlauRB1EQ -> Video is almost 3 years old, but I doubt Roblox got better for developers in any capacity.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6PYj93SGxc -> Essentially the same thing as above, but from September 2023, with some numbers updated, like the CEO saying they made “over 100 million dollars of cash in Q1” (2023), the place having over 50 million games, and more.
As for programming, I have to ask, do you program on your phone? I would use my laptop here.
I’ve tried a couple of times, but gave up. I have a laptop for all my needs, my plan was to program while on the bus to/from work. At least writing down stuff is still doable.
I had to look that up, it’s just too good to pass.
(Cassius Dio, contemporary historian) tells us that the empress teased her companion (the wife of Argentocoxos, a Caledonian chief) by saying that Caledonian women indulge in a sexual free-for-all, sharing their beds with different men while making no attempt to conceal their adultery. To a respectable aristocratic lady like Julia, such brazen promiscuity would indeed have seemed worthy of comment. We then see the wife of Argentocoxos swiftly responding with what Dio calls ‘a witty remark’ of her own:
“We fulfil the demands of nature in a much better way than do you Roman women; for we consort openly with the best men, whereas you let yourselves be debauched in secret by the vilest.”
A bit further below, however
The consensus view among present-day historians is that he simply invented the speech quoted above.

If there’s one thing the Lockpicking Lawyer taught me, is that the vast majority of locks only work because almost nobody bothers to learn lockpicking. Some “extra safe” locks being defeated by a fucking magnet of all things always amuse me
I’ll be here to read those numbers
Good for you. My sausage fingers mean I have to use swipe motions more often than not, and often the word will be wrong, then I have to backspace and type it letter by letter, sometimes getting it right, often getting some letters wrong.
Autocorrect means trying anything akin to programming, or typing commands in a terminal emulator is an exercise in patience. “Just turn it off” - see sausage fingers problem
There was the Virtual Boy and some other things before 2001 (21st century) rolled around. The tech wasn’t good/miniaturized enough back then
Oh, that game looks amazing to play PvP. You can get it for free on the microsoft store, too.
Descent did get 2 sequels and also a spinoff, Descent: Freespace and later Freespace 2. F2 has seen a HUGE amount of mods, partly due to the engine going open source back in 2002
Freespace 3 could be awesome, what with Elite seeing a rebirth.
The PSX/N64/Saturn generation would’ve been better for this meme. Nintendo had its name, Sony had “two ninety nine”, Sega had schizophrenic mismanagement and burnt bridges with retailers
