I decided to start publishing me playing some stuff on my peertube channel, as a way to motivate me to get better and get over my shyness...
I'm not very good, but whatever, you gotta start somewhere. Hopefully with time I'll look back and laugh at the goofy attempts =D
This is the first song. From now on I'll just boost my peertube status with every video

oh no, sheltered manbaby @Dokyriak with his beloved @Weiss_Drache witness thievery for the first time in their forty something years of no life, their tiny tribal minds traumatized by this beyond repair :O

Антанас Суткус. Незрячий пионер. Каунас, 1962. Можно было бы сказать, что слепой человек не реагирует на камеру, и его лицо не превращается в маску. Или что образ головы без волос тянет из памяти множество других образов, которые сохранили длинную историю страданий. Но самое главное не это. Иногда фотография при всей материальности своих инструментов может проникнуть в невидимое. И тогда перед нами не просто мальчик с хрустальными глазами. Чувствительная к свету пленка сохранила то, что легко назвать душой. Это портрет как будто вывернутый наизнанку, и внутреннее здесь явно настолько, что обычная царапина на правой щеке мальчика, как порез по сердцу зрителя. Но невыносимей всего его взгляд удивленный и нездешний за рамки кадра, как за границу жизни. И наверное то, что мальчик не смотрит прямо в камеру, это снисхождение к нам. Кто готов к тому, что эти глаза будут смотреть на него?

The good news is that there is light at the other end of the tunnel and China is now in a position to help the rest of the world.
The bad news is that they were *vastly* more aggressive in fighting the spread than we have been.

Why haven't you watched this?
Watch this or get out :V
frivolous variable naming
auto table = x - floor(x);
auto swing = ceil(x) - x;
as promised - theora color conversion spec codified

but why are those gliders leaving trails? no those are not video artifacts(the discoloration and random red patches are), those are the ancestors!
alright, might have been a compiler quirk, the newer version doesn't seem to do it... but now I'm paranoid.
how in the world can -DNDEBUG or -fno-rtti make code slower?! >.<

I failed to design a CPU yesterday specifically suited to voice recognition, but today I'd like to explain how I'd (naively) design a general purpose CPU to address their current vulnerabilities.
Basically I'd add length & permissions data to every pointer (making them 128bits long), and store a bitmask indicating which bytes are pointers. Thereby moving more fine-grained security checks into the hardware.
This would break *some* C programs, but the damage should be minimal and worth it.
@freemo I swear domain subscription worked a few moments ago, but now it's like this
