I love the book for that course https://beej.us/guide/bgc/html/split/pointers.html#pointers

That still happens! View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yA1u8MV_IYg&t=1849s

I think in this case it means "file pointer". Remember that in Unix, everything is a file. So the sub-process you just launched is a file. If you read from it, you get its output to stdout. If you write to it, it gets what you wrote in stdin...

Looks like Wayland support, mainly.

GTK is a hard pass for me. It seems they go scorched earth on previous releases with every new release. No way some 20-year-old source would still work. Also, I think it's Wayland-only as of version 4. I looked at some GTK source once, and the maze of preprocessor macros caused me to glaze over...

I found some ancient source for an Fl_Gauge widget. It still compiles and works with FLTK 1.3! Gotta love the FLTK guys. You'll need to drop the three files attached to this post in a directory somewhere. Compile them like this c++ -o fltk_temp $(fltk-config --cxxflags) Fl_Gauge.cxx...

Ah, the naked corpse run. I have chills. There are three traders? I've only ever found one!

Oh yeah! I love the way that game does boats. Closest to real boats I've ever experienced. I've spent hours sailing around looking for the perfect natural harbor in which to build my complex stone docks. Have you tried fishing yet? Another mini-game they nailed, IMHO. OK, I guess I should get...

How's Valheim treating you? Haven't played in a while. One of the best games ever. Certainly one of the best $20 I ever spent.

Here's a version that uses sysctlbyname: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/sysctl.h> #include <sys/errno.h> #include <FL/Fl.H> #include <FL/Fl_Window.H> #include <FL/Fl_Output.H> void box1cb(void* output) { size_t size; int t_dK, t_C, t_F...

Yes! Add flaky "mocked" unit tests, and you're talking about the code base I work in. Half the time the build fails because these freaking "unit" tests fail for no discernible reason. And passing the build gives you no guarantees that the integration tests will go well because the vast majority...

It's just a name I know for the average low-cost integrated router / access point you get from manufacturers like Asus. As opposed to a Unifi / Eero setup, or a custom router built from PC parts. Anything in the Nginx logs? Compare what gets logged for Linux browsing with Freebsd browsing

Wrigley Park is a good one. I tend to use 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington DC, 20015, cause it's easier for me to remember. Close to my home address when I was in high school.

Do you mean the public IP your ISP gave you? Same browser used for both Linux and Freebsd? Plastic router running some firmware provided by its manufacturer?

Sadly setting up such would likely take a considerable amount of money, and is therefore not cost-effective. But I agree with you. Looks like PMc actually did his due diligence, and followed the breadcrumbs back to Donorbox. They are the ones responsible for the obnoxious form, and likely are...

It's been a few decades, but do Fibre tape drives still rewind when someone resets the SAN? Like when, say a Windows machine needs to be rebooted? Fortunately Windows is renowned for its uptime. It's a feature, you see. It creates magic endless tapes that store terabytes of data! Just hope you...

This is obnoxious. It's really none of their damn business. I got these in the credit card flow, and I'm pretty sure it's the card that requires 'em. You could always snail mail them a money order, I guess. I suspect this nonsense is driven by their use of the Donorbox service. I'm creeped out...

Sounds like this Unifi box is not a real bridge. I have two OpenWRT access points in bridge mode on my network, and DHCP works happily across them.

Linux is dying? Well, that is new and refreshing!

This is folklore I'm familiar with: https://users.cs.utah.edu/~elb/folklore/mel.html
