Re:Using any C++ library in Godot on Tuesday October 06, 2026 @07:56PM (#49985923)
Yeah, GDScript isnt fast and it doesnt need to be. Most games are just 'move thing' code

If you're doing deep computational loops then yes, you'll need something faster and there's plenty of options including compute shaders.

The beauty in GDscript is that you can work incredibly fast in it. As in, change your code while the game is running and see it in realtime. You can't iterate like that in most other languages.

So you make you game in gdscript efficiently, when its getting closer to release you port whats now mature code into C++ for the speed boost. An LLM will happily smash it out for you in minutes.

That would be against Youtubes terms, the video would get pulled.

I think they are confusing Jellyfin with the crazy exploits in Plex recently.

It's probably 2-3 hours a day. Runs latest Kubuntu currently.

No idea but my Framework 12 goes for days without charging. I really haven't seen any real world need for M chips.

Granted Im not compiling large projects on a train all day but who is.

Unlikely. Being open is why they are recommended over Amazon

I have one and love it. I got the colour one as my kids are learning to read and illustrations are a big part.

Had a quick look at it and it's riddled with ideology statements everywhere which is a huge red flag.

The downvotes are a good indicator you have the right idea.

Its going to Mars. You can't play the oblivious share holder victim with this stock and try and sue later saying you didnt know.

Thats always been the plan.

Tons of people are already buying you don't have to sell it to them.

I'll happily take Musks proven and superior leadership with guarantees over letting the company decline chasing short term sugar hits that destroy it long term.

The only thing Apple silicon has going for it is power use and that gap is getting closed. I can't really see any reason why I would switch to Mac, it just seems like you pay a lot more for a closed expensive environment that fights you at every step.

I'll never pay anyone for a developer licence or fee either. They can sponsor me to port my software to their platform.

Delete Chrome and use Brave. Problem solved.
They're self employed because workplaces are toxic.

Luckily the red flags are usually all over the website and walls of most places so you know not to even interview.

Re:Android Developer Verification on Monday March 30, 2026 @09:51PM (#47581866)
It's kinda funny. I used to run custom roms all Android phones came with a shit OS.

I stopped because Pixel AOSP phones were actually decent.

Now I guess i'll be buying phones based on which I can flash with custom roms again.
