I’m intrigued yet disappointed by the release date.
did you see those little <
in front of the download sizes? org.kde.KStyle.Adwaita
, org.kdePlatform.Locale
, org.kde.Platform
and com.ktechpit.torrhunt
won’t be fully downloaded as those are possibly already installed and can be reused, so in the best case you only download org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-570-86-16
fully.
Well it makes testing very different and also the act of accessing and changing data in the global scope can cause much havoc as a programmer always need to have the entire program in mind and not just the function they are working on.
That’s the sharp contrast e.g. it makes organising and working on code bases easier.
In addendum to the side effects, functions can certainly have side effects, as the global state is still accessible, but only those that don’t are considered “pure”.
Functional programming means that you structure your code in a manner of functions that take arguments and return values based on the functions logic.
This is in sharp contrast to procedural programming which shares a global state to access and mutate.
Mhm so you know a gamepad that’s fully compatible with the ç64? Playing jump and runs with a joystick just feels so utterly wrong.
And those devices came with service/repair manuals as well, what fuses are used, what capacity the capacitors have, … Unthinkable nowadays
One interesting fact about that board is that the shift lock actually locks in place once you pressed it and springs back up on the second press.
That statement kinda works with every tech from that era, no?
That’s mostly the reason why I gathered the pieces :)
Mine always misalign after a while, so that I can’t get input when I push the stick forward.
I just ordered a sega master system controller, should be fully compatible.
The Competition Pro is great :)
Sure thing.
What are you mostly interested in about it?
Yeah me too, that is after I figured out that the volume control is the wrong way e.g. turning it anticlockwise increase the volume while turning it clockwise reduces the volume:D
Sure it may be great, but for jump and guns/runs? Feels rather awkward:/
Under specific circumstances, yes.
now this is truly terrible knowledge.
now this is what I call redundant memory allocation.
Would be cool if they could, for the next Iteration, hook into the video signal and overlay an achievement banner akin to how retroarch displays them.
