See I think that’s not what the “anti-woke” people think it means.

That's exactly what I pointed out. The people who provide them their information are actively trying to poison the word to the point that it means something else. But it doesn't, because the poisoning only works in the echo chambers that spread that information.

Turning to urban dictionary, they’re using this definition: [...]

That would be one of the attempts to poison the word. It's worth pointing out that anyone can add a definition to urban dictionary and it's quite often that trolls try to overwhelm existing definitions on there.

[...] (according to that definition).

That comes back to what I said before. People who self report as anti-woke are against anything that uses the label "woke", until they look at what's under the label and they realise they aren't against any of the points the "woke" labelled thing is doing.

They're not actually anti-woke, they're anti-incorrect-label.

You should put this in codepen so people don't need to clone a repo to see it.

For example, here's a 3d css-only thing I was fiddling with: https://codepen.io/spartanatreyu/pen/yPyNjw?editors=0100

No mouse and like games like MaM/Civ?

Recommendation for slower paced, top down strategy game:

  • GBA emulator and the game Advance Wars 2

Recommendation for hard and fast paced game (audio required):

  • Crypt of the Necrodancer

Recommendation for story based game:

  • Undertale (avoid spoilers, this game will mess with you, only goes for 4 hours per playthrough but you will replay it for the different endings)

I'm not seeing anything in the data collected that I wouldn't want to be sent if the app crashed.

Nah, sourcetree has annoying bugs that never get fixed.

Use Fork, it's a better sourcetree.

It's free the same way that Sublime Text is: They'll ask for a payment once a month, but you can say you're "evaluating it" and use it for free. If you like it enough, you can pay for it. I have.

For anyone downvoting this who didn't understand the reference:

Russia is saying that they're the ones shooting down their own planes, because they don't want to admit that Ukraine has the capability to shoot down their planes.

You can take the contents of a C file, put it into a C++ file and there's an 80% chance it will work without modification, and 15% of the incompatibility will be just sticking a type on your pointer instead of using void pointers (untyped pointers), or in newer code switching the restrict keyword for one of C++'s newer pointers.

You can't do that between JS and Java.

Undertale for sure. (I'm a long time gamer, and I consider this in my top 5 games now)

It has such a slow start, and meh graphics going into it. It took me 3 separate years trying to get into it, but once I got past the first 2 hours, man did the humour, characters and music blow me away.

If you're worried you won't get into it:

  • The graphics start out rough to make the better graphics later on really stand out
  • The slow start is actually them setting things up a whole bunch of things that pay off later, stick with it. (Also since the game is only 7 hours and there are multiple endings, you will replay it to get the other endings and notice just how much content is hidden at the start that you didn't understand the first time playing it).

I'm so glad I came back and stuck with it.

I was just trying to clear something out of my library and ended up with the most powerful gaming attachment I've had in over a decade.

I was in it for the parkour; I didn’t really like the combat and kept being forced to fight people.

Part of the charm of the game was to make its combat unwieldy to push people into parkour-ing past/out of each encounter. The whole game was made so that you could finish it without ever picking up a gun.

It sounds like you didn't get far enough to learn this.

If you don't mind me asking, why do you still use jquery and what do you use in jquery?

[-] spartanatreyu@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

It wasn't the profits or ads that got in the way.

It was the security that got in the way. (remember the whole TPM module thing?)

Iterating the version number was just a convenient excuse to throw more ads, and tracking in.
