Neat. Linux port incoming!

Thank you for this, kevin42. So many great games around the 2000s. If Tim Sweeney could open UE1, a lot of games could benefit from it like Quake being open sourced did.

Re:Using ClickHouse to scale an events engine on Thursday April 11, 2024 @05:30PM (#40007028)
> consider the cost of maintaining an OSS ClickHouse cluster I mean... it is pretty straightforward. 40~60 line Terraform, Ansible with templates for the proper configs that get exported from Terraform so you can write the IPs so they can see each other, and you are done.

What else could you possibly need? Backing up is built into it with S3 support: https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/operations/backup#configuring...

Upgrades are a breeze: https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/operations/update

People insist that OMG MAINTENANCE I NEED TO PAY THOUSANDS FOR MANAGED is better, when in reality, it is not.

Re:Egui 0.27 – easy-to-use immediate mode GUI for Rust on Wednesday March 27, 2024 @11:17AM (#39840413)
Does anyone know a good graph/charting library for Rust that would play well with this?
Would you prefer for it to be dictated by the power-hungry suits running companies and giving themselves multi-million dollar bonuses after mass layoffs?
Do you have any examples of him attacking a minority?
Hello ATF.
Re:Re2c on Thursday February 22, 2024 @09:46AM (#39467841)
It sucks that re2c simply can't parse indentation-based formats like YAML or Python. Had to resort to nom to be able to do it.

FLTK is fun and fast.

Could you point me to implementations that you believe are good? Much appreciated.

Why no std::string?
I knew I couldn't be the only one. Does this serve as a consolation prize, though? https://github.com/djyt/cannonball
Re:Midlibrary: Library of 4000 Midjourney artistic styles on Saturday January 13, 2024 @11:22AM (#38981391)
How can I use this? For example: if I have a picture of my wife, how can I apply one of these styles to her picture? I've downloaded InvokeAI and it runs, but I can't get it to just apply a style to an existing picture.

I wanted to give her a birthday present and her picture using the style of her favorite artist in a frame would be amazing.

Re:Netflix never used its $1M algorithm (2012) on Wednesday January 10, 2024 @04:59PM (#38943896)
Exactly. Give me proper filters in the search tool, I'll find my own movies.
To the Microsoft apologizers: Can't you be happy that open source software provides solutions to problems users face?

I love the random page: https://search.marginalia.nu/explore/random

This makes me feel in the old open web again.

It is just a chronicle. What point did you want?

Ah, Die Hard. The perfect Christmas movie and the reason behind one of my most fun posessions: An HK SP5 with A3 retractable stock.

Re:Show HN: Atlassian Design for Bootstrap v5 on Wednesday October 04, 2023 @09:20AM (#37764708)
We need more of these non-React/Vue/WhateverIsPopularRightNow CSS frameworks. They are great.

Did you write the CRT shader yourself? Because it looks really good.
