@xenon it's very weird to see "times" put there like that

@BlackRosettes It is full of raccoons. Any place that is full of raccoons is a nice place, raccoons are great

@solarmerps (we have looked it up, restrict is a flag for the compiler that tells it that nothing accesses the object at that memory location other than this specific pointer, which helps the compiler optimize the output machine code)
-F

@solarmerps We know a little C, enough that we think that that declaration is declaring a const char * (i.e. pointer to a character, how C does strings) named ss, and the memory location it points to dereferences to a character/string with the volatile, const, and restrict attributes. we don't know what restrict does.

@solarmerps what the fuck would either of those last ones even mean

how is it const and also volatile?

@bj The SNES actually had a 16 MB memory space too, again with a handful of megabytes reserved for system stuff. So you're pretty much at parity with the SNES in terms of maximum possible cartridge size. (it was a little awkward with how the snes worked to use cartridges bigger than 4 MB, but it was definitely possible. you'd just need to bank switch more often)

@bj there's actually a word for this, as it was used commonly with typewriters (where hitting backspace didn't delete the character, just moved the paper back a space): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overstri

@bj what do you mean expand the preview? we don't see any more from clicking on it

@ve7fim Is this a file format that's still in use? what format is it?

@ziphi also, the one trainer who calls himself a "ramblin' gamblin' man" just doesn't feel right when they aren't allowed to use the word gamble

@Starra ShareX is a really versatile screenshot program, you can bind it to an arbitrary key combination and have it do pretty much arbitrary stuff
