o.o I had completely forgotten this.

Next you’re going to tell me that strlcpy() is not real. I will not believe you. I will choose not to believe you.

Unit pedant here: Just 166W. Watts are joules per second (they already have time in them, adding another unit of time confuses things).

This might seem silly, but it will help avoid confusion when you encounter Wh (watts * hours).

For extra joy #define ellen(A) ln(A)

My head hurts. If I take panadol then is it still a rot sesh? EDIT: Took panadol, can confirm still rotting, just a bit better though.

Maybe blushing ////// between two eyes >< ?

(This is a totally normal conversation to have around a good girl)

Canola is a brassica. Canola!

Written in C, not C++, is one for me. I’m writing a little hobby game in C.

Is it a 3-terminal device? You may have to desolder it to find out. That also lets you poke around with the insides (hollow? layers?)

Probably a capacitor, either 2 terminal or 3 terminal. I was originally thinking GDT but it looks like even the SMD varieties are mostly cylindrical shaped rather than rectangular prism.

Similar here.

Family is mostly OK on it. We used to have issues with iOS devices not noticing some new messages & calls, but that seems to have stopped a few months ago. Family is usually impatient about me getting to my phone and rings me using 3 different services in a row, one of them Snikket xD

Have not yet managed to get any friends onto it.

Every news website is covering it. I think I’ve spotted most of 10 articles around the place.

The law of well-marketed unreleased goods dictates that this vehicle is not going to meet any of the promises mentioned in the articles. I hope to be proven wrong, but just like video games: don’t pre-order, wait for it to come out and be reviewed.

That’s a CH340G, it has an in-built 3.3V regulator. But there is no external regulator on the board.

Maybe the chip is running off its internal 3.3V, but the board designers put a tie-up resistor on one of its pins to 5V, which results in the weird 3.9V. Dunno. Try attaching a 1K resistor between that pin a GND, see if that makes the problem disappear.

The 5.3V is from your computer, that’s not the fault of the USB UART.

3.2V is perfectly acceptable for a 3.3V rail.

The 3.9V is a bit weird. Can you post a photo of your USB UART board? Maybe the main chip has an inbuilt 3.3V regulator separate to the external one.

GNOME 2 was fun and easy. It felt like they were trying to learn from the mistakes of Windows and Mac UIs.

Anything odd with temperatures or power draws perhaps? nv-top shows both for me (but I run an AMD GPU + non-proprietary drivers), otherwise lm-sensors might be good.

nvtop seems to show normal usage

Neither the GPU nor CPU utilisation change at the 30 min mark? If one is pegged at 100% then it’s probably hard to work out what is going on. Running a singleplayer game staring at a wall and configured with limited framrate might let you run both the CPU and GPU at less than 100%, perhaps making it easier to see if one or the other suddenly changes.

Atomic wafers made by the techo-church-state? Or have I got this back to front and this is how the non-technical society irradiates its children?

Comedy prediction: SD2 releases overseas, but Australia is used to sell remaining stocks of SD1s for a few years before the SD2 is released here.

The whole thing is vaguely and noncomittally worded, it promises basically nothing.

Take this bit for example:

taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it

In other words: talk to the individual publishers of each game and get their permission :P At which point GOG’s involvement is almost irrelevant, if you have the publisher’s consent then they might as well give you a copy.

Title of PCGamer’s article is misleading, they want a court order to do it. Proof of death is not enough.

“In general, your GOG account and GOG content is not transferable. However, if you can obtain a copy of a court order that specifically entitles someone to your GOG personal account, the digital content attached to it taking into account the EULAs of specific games within it, and that specifically refers to your GOG username or at least email address used to create such an account, we’d do our best to make it happen. We’re willing to handle such a situation and preserve your GOG library—but currently we can only do it with the help of the justice system.”

They have to do that anyway. Court orders overrule a company’s policies in most (all?) legal systems.

Suicide Squad: Less interesting than discussing linguistics xD
