what is it with people managing to make it decades into adulthood without ever learning how to empathize with people
@monorail oh goodness. Play in Casual and Deathmatch and check out the spray pattern training custom map. Nobody cares if you're inexperienced in Casual and if they do there's no penalty for leaving
Valorant is so good it's unreal.
Haha, get it, because it's on Unreal Engi---
I'm starting to do the thing where my alarm goes off and I have no recollection of it by the time I wake up again 3 hours later
@Duende@snouts.online what would you do if someone came up to you and said "hi doggy!" like tommy wiseau
The obvious answer is "it's a store that has values for keys" but I'm not clear on transactional safety and concurrency issues you would be considering when using an RDBMS.
How do you use a key-value store as a database? I'm looking for examples. I'm curious why the industry is moving towards stuff like redis and tikv.
Galaxy brain: hot reloading with your preferred gamedev ECS crate by recreating your system scheduler on reload
Big brain: avoid lengthy rust compile times by splitting your app into several cdylibs that are runtime loaded and have their global allocators injected with a vtable during load

i think previously we would delineate important Concepts in the text with 'these' or "these" or even making the text bold but now capitalization is somehow easier and doesn't look as pretentious? and you can still "denote a verbatim quote" or critically pick apart some part of another text that is 'doubtful' to you, while the Big Topics get signposted in their own way. also you can /italicise/ and do _other_ *stuff* and mix them all together and somehow people still know exactly! what you meant

i think a lot of people follow some variation of it too, you can often tell by having proper nouns left uncapitalised, but certain phrases are given title case to denote their significance (or ironically lack of significance)

its occurred to me just now that i have my own capitalization style guide and despite being very nonstandard the rules are basically consistent
Why is it that brains are like
hey, wake up
I know you got 5 hours of sleep just now
but have you considered thinking about Things for 2 hours straight
@tindall@cybre.space it already is
@amic@nulled.red yeah I'm fine having separate red, yellow, blue and green LEDs for now then
riddle me this PC builders
if my expensive PC equipment has built-in leds, is it possible for me to disable them and use other RGB gear, or even replace the LEDs with RGB rotating leds?

cobol hot take
every time a cobol emergency comes up, there are fewer experienced cobol programmers who are willing to bail the government out yet again. the government should have caught the hint decades ago - no one wants to keep doing this shit.
