There are a variety of cases where OnUpdateItem(esmrecinfo_t *pRecInfo is an empty function, simply returning 0. Not sure how necessary it is for all uses but I suspect that it can either be removed or moved to the base classes, being overridden as needed.

It appears that GitHub has some sort of CI support for MSBuild. Don’t know if it’s a paid feature or what but I’ll take a closer look at it once I’m done with the whitespace formatting. There’s a chance it won’t work due to the generated code but if we can at least get a Windows build out (there’s currently no build of the program available…[Read more]

I prefer OpenSUSE’s zypper but, sadly, I’m stuck on a .deb system here. pacman is pretty good, too.

Yep, I use Synaptic all the time to help fill in the blanks. Use apt for installation and everything but Synaptic has helpful features that I use for querying information. It also has a pretty good categorical view, which is pretty nice.

Yeah,…[Read more]

Have you tried Synaptic with it for an allegedly improved experience of apt upsides and downsides? The wiki for it is a bit broken, SourceForge have a nice list of alternatives.
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…[Read more]

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 with the time shifts. Missed a bit on FTA, and so it all came a bit jumbled until reviewing the Wikipedia page. Still, a mood piece with some fine shots and cool musical interludes.
So, got into to Tubi to watch Dup…[Read more]

The IsModified() function in the GUI classes can be optmized.

This is an example of what we have currently:
if (m_IDText.GetModify()) {
m_Modified = true;
}

if (m_NameText.GetModify()) {
m_Modified = true;
}

Right now, it checks each condition even though m_Modified is already true so we can change it to else-ifs after the initial if with a…[Read more]

This looks like a handy device to toss in my bag to work as a scratch pad so I don’t need to waste paper on a basic calculation that I don’t need to save. Cheap enough, too. Looks like off-brand ones are even cheaper at around 2 USD each

Here’s another interesting one coming out: https://miniot.com/blogs/wheel-updates/introducing-wheel-3

Using optics to read the grooves has been done before with mixed success. I wonder how they’re going to factor gunk and grime in the mix?

Light jazz anyone?

Need to clean up my YouTube…[Read more]

In the past, I’ve mentioned that I dislike the apt package manager. Got an example of a reason!

1. Installed Code::Blocks
2. Didn’t like the looks of it, so uninstalled
3. Realized that APT didn’t uninstall all of the dependencies as they’re suggested packages of other packages
4. Spend thirty minutes trying to track down everything since APT doesn’t…

Still working on the project/ directory. When the newlines were converted to standard n a few years ago in that directory, a whole bunch of newlines got added for some reason. As a result, I’m adjusting the amount of vertical whitespace meticulously and is taking some time. Fortunately, this should only need to be done once assuming another…[Read more]

Cool! Love the design!

Got plenty of those! I have three in my cupboards and I know she’s got several insulated bottles that she finds on the river. 😛

Should probably pick up a basic first aid kit as well to keep in the dry bags. Got extra paddles in case the motor dies. Anything else that’s worth picking up?

Yep! A lot of software is still…[Read more]

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…[Read more]

So Bash does support Morrowind for installing files but doesn’t yet support any of Mash’s other features, such as level list adjusting.

Looks like the directory feature is a built-in mod manager: https://openmw.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/modding/mod-install.html

Do note that all of that can be done from the OpenMW launcher 🙂

Haven’t seen either of those yet. Think I can get reruns of Bones, not sure

Finally watched Casino Royale. While it made little sense, it was a lot of fun. It felt more like a sketch show than something with a plot 😛

Oppo makes good stuff. Really miss their Blu-ray players. Never got around to picking one up before they shut down the department to focus on mobile. 🙁

Could be a software bug. I’ve always had some weirdness with my A7 Lite and even more since the most recent software update. Apps can change the orientation but I’m not sure how they interact…[Read more]

If getting gtkmm built and distributed for Windows becomes overly complicated (it looks a bit daunting at first glance), we could simply wrap the GUI code in conditional compilation blocks to use the native library on Windows and gtkmm on *nix. Won’t be pretty in the code, though.

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.
Theres an issue with the A8 which is powered off in locked landscape orientation. Upon turning it on, it’s in locked portrait mode. Happens only very rarely. Attempting to rotate to landscape…[Read more]

The Switch 2 comes out in a few days. I’m going to wait to get mine until next year at the earliest. I want to wait for them to get the kinks worked out and for more games to come out. At the moment, a lot of the early games are just upgrades of the ones on the original Switch. Elden Ring does look compelling but I need to see some gameplay…[Read more]
