That's what life is all about: Learning lessons.

Learned about Java tracing :D A game wouldn't do OpenGL/DirectX acceleration on Windows with 64-bit Java, but after enabling tracing I found a Can't load this .dll (machine code=0x14c) on a AMD 64-bit platform line and got a surprise it was...

Heh, maybe that's why those mice aren't more popular 😅 That reminded me of a question I had about why spider mounts weren't more popular in games, but didn't think about Arachnophobia

trypophobia-trigger-ass mouse

More holes make things lighter and faster! Wouldn't be a fan of cleaning a mouse daily though :p

Thinkpad T495 I have from may 2021 with FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p5. I checking CPU Temp with Conky and Htop. Usually is temperature between 40 - 46 C, on depend what I am doing. Usually when I start Firefox or Waterfox it jumps to 50 - 52 C and is...

It won't be long till my 50th wedding anniversary celebrating 25 years of wedded bliss.

after extensive research on the subject, spanning may years, I have come to the conclusion that all free IDEs suck in their own special way. About the closest I've come to being productive with an IDE was vscode, before they started the AI...

Emacs is not an OS, it is a glorified Lisp interpreter, and not even a particularly good one. But with all the crap written for it it is extremely productive.

I use Prime95 https://www.mersenne.org/download/ (something like option 2 to skip joining, 5 for stress-test only, then the max power option I think 3); the website mentions a FreeBSD version but I haven't tried it yet (I usually booted to Linux...

you need to initialize the index variables before, else that would be the index function that will be seen.

Thanks for taking time to make a how to :)

Status update & a nice argument to reuse & buy used parts: When you buy your equipment in internet auctions, watch out for the details! I searched for M.2 NVMe 1.3 SSD, because the target board has only PCI 3 x 4, so pluging in more modern...

This was my clever plot. Say you don't know how to do something, or better yet, say it's not possible, and almost certainly, someone with the answer will post. :) There are various old cliches, they were mostly about usenet. The classic...

I don't think this is mine but I have one similar. It's huge inside my full size cabinet but I run full speed with just one fan for the cabinet and one built into the power supply which is quiet and my cpu temp is under 50C

IDK how far you can tweak kate into the drection of a "real" SDK; it might suit basic needs. IMHO any good editor of your liking with syntax highlighting is the center, and the rest you can do in a terminal window, which is usually fine. And...

I always struggled trying to figure out C++ and I once considered myself an expert at C. To me it's significantly different.

Well... ya! :cool:

It really, really helps if one understands how the processor accesses memory and IO. At least for me it does. When I program, I sometimes visualize how the data travels back and forth across the motherboard and into everything but that's probably...

I may start a separate thread asking how to get clion to work. The linked bug did not help me. qt-creator is looking good so far. Package is one-tenth the size of clion. It created a CMakeLists.txt for a new non-Qt project. I now have clangd and...

Chosing a good cooler and a fan a number larger than the bare minimum, and use the least amount of compound just necessary to close the few tiny microgaps is 90% of a good cooling design. Chosing a good paste is 10%. Chosing some magic wonder...

Nothing better then neovim-qt. My config is too large i cannot paste. But trust me i have coloring, completion, external libraries like qt6, these are parameters.

Emacs can do debugger integration with source buffers, but you have to set it up.

Economics, is my thing. But i dont kwon if i can talk about it, not violating freebsd guideliness. so i must use general wordings. World trade organisaition not to too bad. you sell i buy. both happy. Have a nice life is sell shuff. You do vice...

The lockpickinglawyer would like to have a word with you... head on over to his youtube channel and be prepared to get a whoopin'

It will always be possible to get stuff made more cheaply in some third world country with no labour rights, no environmental protection, and import it back into the first world country cheaper than it could be made here, provided there are no...

She's funny & authentic.

It did ok; I liked Arctic Silver 5 and IC Diamond though for having particles that sound pretty cool :p (haven't seen any paste that did anything notably different with temps though; even Kryonaut) I'd do a CPU stress test and watch what temps...

I wrote: "snapshot the ROOT/default dataset and then you wipe out it's contents with rm -fr /" No, a snapshot is read-only forever. It can never be set set r/w, but you clone it to produce a writable dataset. IMHO you should choose the menu...

CEF is ridiculous (didn't know dlls could even be that huge 😆)

My drives are unencrypted; others need to be able to learn what a good set-up looks like :p At the very least, nobody's likely to know what to do with my FreeBSD set-ups starting with no login manager or likely able to mount ZFS quick from Linux...

If you poke around the forums you should see who's labled moderator. I don't think there's a list though. (Checks forum rules and such). Nope, doesn't seem to be. Just be a bit patient, it shouldn't take more than 24-48 hours.

A FreeBSD 15 base install is most complete ever. Doing everything with ee and stand-alone tools for years, I hate vi-only systems or with some other editor for 70s serial terminals. That's going to need some treatment. Still, I would use...

so i have been reading about C instead of C++ because i think that it will be a better introduction to C++ for the sake of brevity, i've tried to recreate my calculate center function in C from PHP. The hardest part of this code was the scanf...

They usually don't inform you. I should know.

I have only just tried messing about with executing programs in jails and have found that jexec does not work in an iocage jail. Instead I need to run something like iocage exec JAILNAME ifconfig as an example.

Between 12.x and 13.x I notice that 13.x uses more swap but this is not bad thing if you don't swap in/out a lot. If you want the behaviour of 12.x then you can use a value of vm.pageout_update_period less than the default. If you...

Is there a list of moderators somewhere? I don't want to be pestering the likes of SirDice with trivia like this. maybe there is a general moderators mailbox.

This might not be what you had in mind, but mentioning in case you find it useful. A great way to achieve coverage and depth is with Property-Based Testing (PBT). With PBT, you auto-generate inputs, drive your tested unit with those, and check...
