“Broken” inspires only a piddle of confidence, might be worthwhile adding a ref. either to the issue or as a new issue with a “related” tag.
Back to the macros:

/* Shorter definitions for convienence */

It’s more of a conveyance of long to short if you will, else the main issue being the byte size of the cpp to increase dramatically when implemented.
Are tabs to be used in the #define sections? Right now it looks a little higgledy-piggledy in EsmScriptDefs.h.

Yes, watched Moon some time ago, intriguing and well filmed despite a depressing outcome. Not because of the film, but of the humanity of the content thereof – you’re sure to discover. 🙁
Is that the same as the “full HD” version on IA? Hmmm, might watch that tonight. 🙂 Edit: A gem for sure, Steve McQueen was in the credits – not the one we are familiar with though. 😛
Tuned in to The Matrix Resurrections the other day, not bad, although a prerequisite for the novice or returning viewer is to brush up on Matrix lore beforehand. As viewers are expected to be die-hard Matrix fans, this is for them, if not, most criticisms point to a rather bumpy plot and screenplay.

It’s a pain, CString is an object, TCHAR is a typdef macro that determines char_t types on MBCS (1 or 2 byte characters) or unicode build. CString should be easier to work with.
Sounds good. 🙂

That’s very cheap, why Boogie Board though – it’s a thing one paddles with at pools or at the beach – over here at least. OTOH one can aspire to be either board, chairman of the board, or even chairman of the boogie board!
As a Xmas present from a relative with an idea of enhancing bodily cleansing, Lush’s Honey I Washed The Kids Shower Gel is one of the most intoxicating on the market. Suspect the citronellol, amyl cinnamal and geraniol as the main contributors, if not, the concentration of the essential oils. For me, gratefully received, and best in a bath. 🙂

The producers might have considered teleporting the machine right into Hitler’s bunker in 1945. And the leeches don’t mean any harm whatsoever, they just want to help us all by enhancing anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant and antimicrobial effects. On a giant scale.
The lead teacher in Bad Teacher is really bad, so there’s a good chance of a giggle or two.

Common Sense Media notes “Parents need to know that this raunchy comedy about a jaded, selfish, foul-mouthed middle-school teacher will likely attract teen fans expecting an over-the-top Apatowian laugh-fest, but what you get instead is an underwhelming film that’s long on unlikeable characters (even though they’re played by appealing stars like Diaz and Timberlake) and short on wit or insight.”

But it’s exactly that which makes this fluff rather droll! 🙂
Birth is an odd piece shot almost in the style of 40s or 50s films. It holds sufficient dramatic tension to lead you onto the final disappointments.

The wiki for it is a bit broken, SourceForge have a nice list of alternatives. Have you tried Synaptic with it for an allegedly improved experience of apt upsides and downsides?
Ever considered uploading audio content to audio.com per Audacity suggestion in-app? Here’s a caution.
It’s amazing such an intuitively simple thing like getting an app to play a monitor’s sound device can get to be such a horrendous task.

Plotwise The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford keeps you in as long as you stay on the slow drawling dialogue, and in the loop with the timeline shifts. Missed a bit on FTA, and so it all came in a bit jumbled until reviewing the Wikipedia plot section. Still, a mood piece with some fine shots and cool musical interludes.
So, got into to Tubi to watch Duplicity the other day – funny the Google AI (with mistakes disclaimer) says:

“Duplicity,” directed by Tyler Perry, is a legal thriller available on Prime Video. The film stars Kat Graham, Meagan Tandy, Tyler Lepley, and RonReaco Lee. It’s not available on Tubi.

My cuppa, so entertaining enough, Tubi both in browser and app will not hide the bottom control bar, so get used to a slightly squinched video frame, and the placement of the ads requires a more sensitive AI approach to dialogue shift and/or scene change. The same ad can repeat over a given set of intervals – a feature endowed by either a cdn, sponsor or other agency perhaps?
On their staff picks there is Chopping Mall – have you seen that?
Oh, and a new production of Les Misérables:

Wonderful, a coracle is also the very thing for use in a tarn or small lake. And yes, a thermos is mandatory. 🙂
Definitely, who wants to spend their precious gaming time on such nefarious capers as compiling or confirming bug reports?
A worrying statistic of our times is one in seven scientific papers is a crock – here’s an extract form the discussion there:

But even within isolation, a 1/7 FF rate is essentially a slow-moving local polycrisis. False results waste other scientist’s time and money if they are ever chosen for replication or extension. In doing so, they stymie careers and needlessly spend public money, they discourage researchers from continuing their careers, and students from beginning them. They delay pharmacological, surgical, and behavioral treatment of illness. They contaminate meta-analyses, and in doing so, affect the direction of entire fields, or, of more intermediate concern, hurt or kill people if they affect meta-analyses that determine treatment guidelines. They destroy the internal fabric of trust that science relies on, and force the adoption of slower and more substantive open scientific methods. Publicly, they reduce the public profile of science, and threaten the entire scientific enterprise with a loss of public trust and support. Moreover, they are self-perpetuating – fake science is faster, cheaper, and easier than real science, and if the two traditions compete to see who can produce more results (or produce the same results first), then fake science can quickly engender fake norms.

Secured a nifty Oppo A38 refurb for the tap and go experience, won’t be using it until either absolutely necessary or the clink of coin has gone for good.
There’s an issue with the A8 which is in locked landscape orientation by default. Upon turning it on, it comes up in locked portrait mode. Happens only very rarely. Can an app mess with the settings like that?
Attempting to rotate back landscape mode is almost impossible, with it readily flipping to 180° portrait only. Only at a weird angle will the landscape return.
Might be worth checking out Gyroscope Test in case of a defect.

These days, the young and restless will neither rest nor grow old until they get a positive gong in the People’s Court Sheindlin Arb. Reality Show.

20th Century Fox Wants You To… Go Ape

Since then, just about everything has gone ape-sh*t. 😛
Saw Se7en again after four or five years, just enough time to forget most of the details. Worth it, more for the script and performance of “anti-hero” Spacey this time. An amazing clash of personalities, too. 🙂
Edit: Oh, and do watch repeats of Bones from time to time. They came over here at the end of the series, and the first impressions were of a rather nerdy, nattery, and colourless production. The music is terrible, the complete antithesis of, say a Kojak if you like. Still, once you get over that there’s a quality to be unearthed along with the bones. Take for example the opera singing trash collectors intro, one of the best ever seen. And yep, a Reddit thread as clips are frowned upon. 🙁

🙂 A parrot pining for the fjords may as well be pining for the rings of Saturn.
Jindabyne contains a few dramatic scenes laced with a bit of pep, it’s located near here so the scenery is familiar, as well as being captured in loving detail.
NCIS Origins is arguably a better show than the original, thus not a bad choice when there is little else available. 🙂
Never knew Judge Judy is well on the way to be a billionaire thanks to small claims disputes, despite Judge Wapner’s disapproval.

Judge and Judy. Fought for pie,
Judge gave Judy, A knock on the eye…

They continue to repeat her old shows on FTA, haven’t seen anything yet of the newer Judy Justice.

A treat for music lovers:

Thanks. 🙂
With the esm header, good idea to check what’s in the cpp re anything relating.
With the X86 MSVC 19.42 compiler at godbolt there is:

source(2): error C2833: ‘operator dword’ is not a recognized operator or type
source(2): error C2059: syntax error: ‘newline’
source(2): error C2143: syntax error: missing ‘;’ before ‘{‘
source(2): error C2447: ‘{‘: missing function header (old-style formal list?)

The other three errors don’t occur with the latest X64 MSVC. Odd.

Great story on the waggle dance, and its purpose and meaning. Thanks!
Apparently the Late Show doesn’t screen every night over here, so they replay some older shows to fill the void. This is an intro to one:

Can hardly imagine how this could have happened, it’s usually a matter of tensioning the holding cables to the centre of mass on the ship, but the bow never got off land! Cf. this US navy launch:

Sorry, no, meant the whole thread, not just that post. As a matter of interest, is MWEdit fully Unicode or MBCS?
If not for debugging, no, – a command line may not be absolutely mandatory unless an association is setup for opening files. Can you load more than one file in MWEdit?
Where does MWEdit store its preferences – in the registry or in a data/ini file? Have you seen this guide? It mentions the following:

Often you will remain with some errors not pointing to a explicit script name after Edit\Compile Active Scripts, e.g. something like “1) Warning: Line x (y): Comparison operator missing space characters on one/both sides!”
Problem is, line x may be ok, but instead of script name MWEdit spits a rather cryptic script index which I still haven’t deciphered.
In case this happens, it is often convenient to just use regular expression search from an external text editor to solve these pesky missing spaces errors.

One for the issues list?
Ah okay, whatever is best. 🙂

There’s a few choices of interest from winmain-and-main-in-c-extended, wonder if there is any point adding command line arguments say for example to run the show in debug mode like e.g. Wrye Bash.
Will that be for CMake? You can make it work with MSBuild as explained in CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM, not sure how that goes with VS on Linux though.

Going way back to early Bond, there was Barry Nelson in Casino Royale with Peter Lorre as the villain. With characters like Lorre, many of the ones these days come across as cardboard constructs in comparison. This might be the case in the 2006 film where the villains did make out a little “ordinary” in comparison. Do recommend the latter, although it does stretch out a little in the end parts.
Tombstone is a western in the epic style, the tension and stunning cast are sure to keep you in until the end. Recommended.
Tonight on FTA there is Inherent Vice, which is sure to be a hoot – re the lively dialog:

Well Mornin’ Sam, like a bad luck planet in today’s horoscope, here’s the old hippie-hating mad dog himself in the flesh: Lieutenant Detective Christian F. “Bigfoot” Bjornsen. SAG member, John Wayne walk, flat top of Flintstone proportions and that evil, little shit-twinkle in his eye that says Civil Rights Violations.

Streaming the first few episodes of Arrow, not bad. There’s enough in the novelty and plot to hold interest, only issue is the TV forty minute formula. Same with Gotham, although in many ways the latter is a better show.

The name appeals, a melding of MySpace and Facebook = CodgerSpace? Rodger that!
The Science section e.g. this provides links to well-known sources e.g. cosmic jousting at Reuters. Do you get those – it appears to be region based, so we get a lot of Mirage content over here.
The Disney Fun-Fact-Fantasy-Fiction collection arrived at the shop, so snapped another presentation:

Not too many good videos of ants twerking, there’s this one of a bee:

Is it possible to refactor code to run from custom operators? So define operators f+ as float plus, d+ as float double, f- as float minus, d- as double minus etc.. This obeys the usual arithmetical precedence rules in converting the surrounding operands to the type specified by the operator. Bound to be messy and slow in large expressions of mixed types so two operands per statement is best. Non numerical operators must then be represented in their numerical forms by conversion functions if necessary.
An idea for the backburner, less one chooses to take on the challenge of crunching a bit bucket load of numbers in Pacman fashion for that extra edge in Morrowind modding power. 😛

[DeVaultSetter]

Vector might be a viable alternative to array of structs, even better, just an array of key/value pairs.
Fine, just watch for certain add/subtract operations in floats, there’s a cautionary note here.
