I love how in Rust, milliseconds are considered a bleeding-edge, experimental feature. Everything is either seconds or nanoseconds. https://awoo.space/media/fgl53ZFHHNof3kQThRU

I will heretofore refer to the Xbox Controller S as “[very Jeremy Clarkson voice] the Duke’s Japanese cousin”

you, foolish: is a hot dog a sandwich

me, wise: is the Xbox a Sega console

you, foolish: the N64 controller was bad because it thought people had three hands

me, wise: the N64 controller was bad because the analog stick would crumble to dust, but offering a comfortable handgrip for both d-pad and analog stick was unprecedented at the time and very good

someone shared their seitan doner recipe on twitter and now I’m incredibly hungry

How do I specify character variations in my legal name? Can I be Jessica but mandate a single-storey “a?”

city pop is lesbian culture

what if I installed rust the computer language and made it so discord recognised “rustc” as the rust video computer game

delightfully devilish

ah so ~technically~ the underlying C struct which represents the SDL game controller has a platform-dependent metadata blob (struct) indicating specific capabilities and info such as which XInput player number it correlates to, among others

I have no access to either object

Windows gamedev question: can a not-specifically-UWP exe talk to the Windows.Gaming.Input.Gamepad class, rather than XInput, at all?

y’all I just wrote some tests by defining a trait and then making a faux version of the object the function under test relies on which implements that trait • this rules

Rust contains built-in support for transfiguration of Cows into Strings and vice versa https://awoo.space/media/dRPi9yE3LosyUwPECqI

back to my mech

“retweets” do not belong on masto or maybe im just a curmudgeon

I can’t believe I have to put a regex filter of /(\n— Retweet\s|(^|\n)\[RT @)/ in every column to avoid people who insist on plagiarising content from hell site

ozbargain is a weird mixture of people getting cheap machos cheeseburgers and people buying non-compliant power boards which no grounding which will probably end up burning down their house

getting serious here https://awoo.space/media/1JeCoTI_9-LkOsF8nJM

this rules actually, this is how I’m going to make the thing *testable!*
