I think #1 is a different hippo, not Moo Deng

What brands would you buy? I’m looking to branch out

Tbh I’m not sure if you can. That’s proprietary IDEs for you.

In case anyone wants to know the actual answer, it stands for cross platform make, and my understanding is that it’s for generating build project files for various development environments. For instance, with one CMake file you can generate a Visual Studio Solution file, an XCode project file, a Makefile, etc. Several IDEs are also able to read CMake files directly.

That works until you need to support Visual Studio or Xcode. Then you either maintain their stuff manually too, or you get CMake to generate all three. I don’t love it but it solves the problem it’s meant to solve. The issue is people using it when they don’t need to.

Man, they quite literally don’t make them like this anymore. I miss them.

That’s… what the subscription cost is for. For the developer to make a living.

To be fair, this is not a windows exclusive problem, especially in the age of smartphones and flatpak.

For the conversion of Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen? That was the main point of these, the algae does that and is actually even more efficient at it than a tree. Trees do have other benefits hence why they shouldn’t be replaced, but these should go in places where trees can’t.

To echo what some other people have said, these algae tanks absolutely should not be used instead of trees. If I see a tree get chopped down and replaced with one of these, I’ll be sad and angry. However, these can go in places where trees can’t go, like rooftops. And you don’t have to either wait for a tree to grow for a decade or take a tree from somewhere else to install one. It also serves as both a seating area and can mount a solar panel on top. These and trees both have their place and should both continue to be used.

Same here, might just be because I learned with Object Oriented languages but C++ syntax just gels well with how I think. That could just be autism though.

Well there’s a few things for early at home games, for one the instruction booklets were actually worth a damn, often containing the story, tutorial, and more. Also, size was at much more of a premium, so since instruction manuals were a thing, it was considered a waste to have all of that stuff in the game itself. I’m sure there are exceptions but that’s the general idea.

Much as I lament the loss of good instruction manuals, it’s understandable why they went away in light of why they were necessary before.

Not a fan for several reasons. Namely the Chromium base and the weird crypto stuff. Also I wasn’t asking for solutions to the cancerous ads, I was making a snarky comment about the site while asking where the OP got the negative vibes from, which I didn’t get when I read it.

That will either kneecap my connection speed or just send my data to the VPN provider instead of my ISP. Or both. Besides, I’d rather not give the site exposure/clicks if the ads are insane rather than block the ads and still give them traffic.

I do on PC, but I do most of my Lemmy Browsing on my phone.

Did this article get edited or something? I didn’t get much of anything of substance in that article at all, positive or negative, amidst the cancerous amount of ads.

Some of them are a bit oversimplified. For example, the so-called “fear of long words” is actually specifically supposed to be referring to an anxiety about misspelling or mispronouncing long words, which is a slightly more sensible and relatable phenomenon. Then there apparently some that are just made up, like apparently the palindrome ones.

Yes, but until we have a systematic change to remove tipping and pay them a livable wage, not tipping results in them having less money. So either don’t go to the restaurant, or tip. With the knowledge of the system that we have, Going to the restaurant and not tipping is a scummy move in the US. Doesn’t matter who’s at fault for the situation being shitty.

Peter Dinklage didn’t actually post this. The original picture is of a family who let a three year old decorate a tree. Someone took that picture, made the Peter Dinklage account and posted this posing as him. Allegedly. I think it’s kinda funny, but with that background info maybe in poor taste.

God damn, I love how relevant and memeable this game still is to this day.
