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. 😛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.Oregano is really tough, there’s a patch of it which has been regenerating each spring for many years now, at least 15 IIRC.
That’s a pity, an idea is to intersperse the cover with something slightly unpalatable, the nightshades for example. The younger leaves on a local species (probably this) growing under the pines here are actually quite gentle on the feet, prickles are felt more on the onset of maturity in drier times. If they keep walking on it, try a sweet-smelling deterrent like Houttuynia or Lesser Swine Cress.
Which of the wildlife causes the most problems? Over here the black wallabies are usually fine except in colder and drier times when they tend to destroy bark on shrubs and young trees.Got one of them downstairs, we simply had to diversify. 😛
So the CyberPower is in place, runs nicely – apart from a bit of a hiccup on boot probably from the loose USB connector plug.
Another thing, the PC rebooted immediately after shutdown last night, do recall an adjustment of voltage thresholds cured this a while ago on a downstairs rig. In the meantime trying out the solution from this thread:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
And setting the value of
PowerDownAfterShutdownto 1. 🙂Dragon32 bowing out after all this time, wow. Is mlox a better alternative to Mash these days?
A scripter wanted to know How to detect if webcam is being used?
No answer, looks like each implementation of the USB Video Class (UVC) camera has its own virtual space from which one can hardly see into, other than through Windows Settings, as seen in Which application is currently using my camera on Windows 10? and Open webcam settings dialog in Windows
Only way through is low level interrupts on data streams, some interesting related OSR threads Feasibility of write a webcam driver for cheap webcam and What is the “Correct” way of blocking external usb connection (flash drive, WPD, etc) in 7+?It also has some cool taglines:
From Outer Space They Came – Meteor Borne, Meteor Strange!
Stranger Than Anything Science Had Ever Discovered As Thrill Crowds Upon Thrill!Looks like a fun crowd, could this have been the official trailer for it (minus the Cheezy movies bit 😛 )?
Rogue Agent is one of those flicks equipped with a potent payload, a potency which depends on the spoiler effect, or how much is known of the movie beforehand. Half the fun is the guesswork at the beginning, so recommended on the basis of that.
Blood Diamond is a disturbing film displaying levels of violence on par with any from the horror or slasher genre. Although the pattern of the occurrences of action and chase scenes and their duration/outcome seemed contrived and formulaic, the character and drama of this ripping good story was not. DiCaprio as the lead held it all together, his accent was convincing as it was consistent, yet controversial it seems. The question on that for any dialectologist is how it matches up to typical Zimbabwe/Rhodesian lingo and how much it could it vary from Afrikaan.Turns out the Mastering CMake files there are just TOC, and Martin/Hoffman’s version have non-functioning links. Better to just get it from CMake. 😛
No corrigenda since 2003? They have indeed upped the standards! And news group comp.std.c++ dead?
Interesting link on file system limits, thanks. Because the IA has well over 200 pb of data, the operation of extracting their offline info becomes … interesting even on a machine with ReFS. 😛
IA retains some old AL links, the actual files for Miscellaneous and Downloads are missing, do remember attempting to edit the AHK version of HTML Sundry Tips … and getting a Cloudflare bounce when posting. Worked today, but the intended updates back then have quite slipped the mind. 😛
Also came across the Previous Morrowind Patches, are those still current?Not too many comments in there either, also a Reddit thread with similar. The Miniot wheel is what we want:
Really want to splash out on a Michell:
A cute timelapse sonification of a supernova “bowl”:
For Oblivion interiors, they include objects (or paths) deemed to have the property of casting a shadow, “casters” if you like. Interiors have a similar canonical list for shadow receiving, the above lists are from users, so may not be complete. There are also types for interiors, and some of those, Skill for example, won’t make any sense as far as shadows are concerned. 😛
Ditto above for Oblivion exteriors. 🙂The hallmark of a bad movie: while the director’s away, folks wander around the set wondering what’s to play! 😛
Have been reading old newspaper reviews of past series that were once available on our state channel. Apparently they don’t have a long holding period, so a lot of good stuff missed is gone until the lazy Susan (hopefully) brings it round again.
The subscription based Cult Cinema Classics have amassed quite a collection as well, streaming through YouTube is not a bad experience as they keep ads to a minimum in long vids, (mostly.)
The Knight of Cups is a mood piece steeped in watery reverie, fancy, and mystery, the mystery being how the audience can gird their dendritic loins around Rick’s mystic travails. A loosely spun narrative which unfortunately tied these neurones in knots, your mileage may vary. 🙂The tables are barfed again, will resolve tomorrow. 🙂
Fixed – the borders for the tables have gone even though “Visual” has them.It can be changed with
WS_TABSTOP, see here, implementation may not be straight forward. The comments in How can I set the control’s tab index? explain things a little better.
Have you got a portable DVD player? If any issues with that, just copy setup files to HDD, else try transfer to flash drive instead 🙂 -
