i don't know how people keep their house immaculately clean. i'm happy when i manage to keep myself fed and the dishes done

@eniko we had a plan to have people over at least once a month, which would force us to clean. We haven’t really had anyone over much these last few years though…

@ivory it’d be great to be able to search for “https://<server>/explore” or just “https://<server>/“ and have an option to “Explore”. I expect it would work in a similar way to how you can search a URL to look at a post or profile. I find “explore” to be a great way to find people with similar interests, but it’s clumsy to do it in a browser then take that back into Ivory.

I've been thinking about this for a while, and I'm dead-ass serious. Let people have fully self-driving cars that cannot go faster than 10 MPH.

Then give them right of way everywhere, over all other automobiles except for emergency vehicles.

If you need to go faster than golf-cart speed, you need a bus or a train.

bnut,
@bnut@aus.social avatar

@est there’s an implicit “and no other cars” in there? I’m not sure I’m happy with the current state of self-driving tech on the roads at all, whether it’s the only thing or not. There’s too many cases of it failing to see stuff because of reflections, contrast, or edge cases.

Otherwise your idea sounds similar to this (great idea): https://sfba.social/@jeridansky/110561534641724959

@est definitely safer, but momentum/damage is still a factor of velocity and weight. Maybe it's like being run over by a tricycle, but it’s still a tricycle with the equivalent an inverted pyramid of six circus trained black bears balancing on it.

@est totally, electric golf carts instead of most cars sound good

I love finding a function in a game that is literally just
void func(const char*){
}

No body. But it's called from 440 different places in the exe.

you can just smell the DEBUGMODE in the binary

@foone I’m curious why you chose this game, and what your goal is (obviously to decompile it, but is it just for fun? does the game do something cool and unique you want to understand? is it significant historically? no one else was doing it? etc)

bnut,

@foone ah okay, nifty. Sounds like you’re making a lot of useful progress for them!

@ivory Hey, mutes don’t seem to work in hashtag results, is there a trick to it, or is this a bug?

bnut,
@bnut@aus.social avatar

@ivory Yes, sorry I should have attached and example but I have poor net at the moment.

I’m browsing the hashtag (DigitalArt), and it shows posts which have other hashtags which I have muted (AIArt). I expect that post to be hidden.

I expecting browsing this hashtag to be a preview for what it would look like if I followed a hashtag. If I followed it I would not expect posts from the followed hashtag that also have the muted hashtag to appear in my Home timeline.

@ivory it’s be nice to be able to choose which way in the filter’s settings then, because the user likely knows which way they want

@eniko to be fair, I could CEOs trying to replace workers with it being the final straw that finally triggers an anti-capitalist uprising, and I can see CEOs meaning “the death of capitalism” when they say “the end of humanity”. So yeah, okay, complete fuckwits.

@paul @ivory huh TIL, the :custom-emoji: thing doesn’t seem to be a mastodon standard, but the emoji list is defined per server.

Also TIL while typing this, you’ve got your own! So I guess you’re probably working on supporting them already, and I don’t need to ask. https://emojos.in/tapbots.social

It’d be cool if they let you do something like :ivory_logo@tapbots.social:

@djlink Sydney has gone from $20k to $1200k median house price since 1970.

10x in 70 years is bad enough, as you’ve shown, but this is 60x in 50 years. Something like 8.5% every year, on average, for longer than my entire life.

How have I spent the last 5 years professionally dealing with this piece of software I swear to god

bnut,
@bnut@aus.social avatar

@eniko Wow, that sounds horrible, what engine is it?

Now you’ve done the hard work: it think the bits of the flag are whether to apply a transform operation. The operation order of them matters, which is why you need different effects if it’s rotated. So it becomes something like:

bool rotate = (flag & 1) != 0;
bool flip_x = (flag & 2) != 0;
bool flip_y = (flag & 4) != 0;

SpriteEffects out = SpriteEffects.None;
if rotate {
(flip_x, flip_y) = (!flip_y, flip_x);
}
if flip_x {
out |= SpriteEffects.Flip;
}
if flip_y {
out |= SpriteEffects.Mirror;
}
return out;

bnut,
@bnut@aus.social avatar

@eniko Although, I may have X and Y around the wrong way in the variable names. The output should still work. I didn’t have enough context to work out if flip/mirror was horizontal/vertical.

bnut,
@bnut@aus.social avatar

@eniko Yeah, it seems because rotate is done first its impact on the other flags is more or less the same as code to rotate a vector 90 degrees:
(x,y) = (-y, x)

So it makes sense in the end, but without documentation it just seems like they scramble the flags for sadistic reasons.
