And which game was that, if you don’t mind my asking?

This is officially the stupidest response I have ever gotten on a social platform.

I’m pretty sure you have no idea what a kernel does if you’re jumping to user space. It’s very far from meaningless.

The worst thing about American Gods is that they had plenty of episodes to complete the core storyline; but the studio dragged it out so poorly that we never received it.

Thankfully Gaiman has had some central creative control of his shows since.

Incidentally, Chuck Palahniuk has said the same.

I respect that as true, but every console other than XBox is either Linux or BSD based; at a certain point learning to work with alternative platforms is just good business practice.

I also regret you asking

Yes, she was a stripper. Don’t you judge.

Look, when I said “another Bethesda game”, I was pretty specifically referring to either the Quake reboot, or Prey 2. I don’t know how everybody misunderstood that.

I thought it was obvious, even.

If I remember correctly, you’re describing the draw order, which is typically a material setting in Godot. It’s been a while, though; you may need to dig a little.

Tween as in tweening, from the animation term.

“People like me”? I’m not the aggressor in this conversation, I’m just not taking angry xenophobic propaganda right now.

You know what, you do that. It isn’t my issue, and computers aren’t for everyone.

I can’t tell if he’s being sarcastic, or not, or if he knows whether he’s being sarcastic or not.

The red band is where the real geniuses are. Apparently.

No disrespect, but i must disagree.

My last experience with WSL, about a month ago on Win 11, had it a far cry from GNU/Linux. They don’t even have a shoe-in for udev yet, and as a multimedia guy, that makes it almost unusable.

Allow me to clarify.

C has for, while, and do-while. That’s it.

Ruby has for, while, do-while, until, rescue, inlined conditionals, optionals, and iterators, for what amounts to the same task; not to mention exceptions (something the C standard has repeated swerved away from, wisely) and lambdas.

I’m not saying that there isn’t a time for Ruby, but if you think C falls into the same category then we’re very much in disagreement.

Of recent features, what exactly makes it better for development?

When you’re first writing a line of code, you should already be thinking about how you might refactor it in the future, and preparing for that.

For me the big issue with Ruby—which admittedly has many fine features I would like to see in other languages—is the lack of a general standard for its operations. There are so many ways to get the same basic logic loop done, it feels like a recipe for either unfollowable code or chaos in programming teams.

Props and big up for the G’MIC shoutout. That thing is a BEAST.
