Green light granted by Nimrod! How the best to proceed, created a fork like this, or stay with the original?

Only 38 comments on that post? Blogs are definitely becoming less popular, I see 🙁

Thanks! Now if we can figure out how to disable it for Bing. May be a toggle, haven’t looked yet 🙂

Someone needs to license the character as their betel nut mascot 😛

Yeah, I still need to get an air purifier for the living room. That will surely help. We’re…[Read more]

Started on the Dalton films yesterday with The Living Daylights. Really enjoyed the more serious tone. Some of the critics complain about the lack of humor but there was plenty! Bit of a shame that Dalton only did two films.

Never had a C++ course (learned on my own) or used virtual functions before so I’ll need to brush up on them before they go on the list

I suspect most of the macro issues will vanish once the code is changed so that it’s no longer being generated. I don’t even know what the generated commands tell it to make

This could be a useful utility to…[Read more]

Yeah, style, warnings, the virtual functions in base class, function in derived class etc.

esm/EsmBase.cpp:28:3: error: There is an unknown macro here somewhere. Configuration is required. If DEFINE_FILE is a macro then please configure it. [unknownMacro]

Contacted Nimrod at NexusMods with a link on here, sorry…[Read more]

Any luck with reaching Nimrod?

In the meantime, I went ahead and ran the repository through cppcheck using the following options:
cppcheck --enable=all --platform=win64 common Windows esm IL File project
As expected, there are lots of messages about the use of the virtual bits. The log is surprisingly sparse otherwise. Here’s the full log.

Oh, was thinking a browser would have a policy of showing a search engine’s search results, but not the AI blurb as default. In any case, it can be turned of by plugins or this:

What about him popping up in an ad for sarsaparilla, or even better, betel nut beer? 😛
Ah,…[Read more]

According to this post, you can! You need to activate it in the settings on the old Reddit site, though. Weird 😛

The new update is gorgeous! Sure, we have giant planets all next door and smaller ones that haven’t been captured as moons. Not exactly accurate in terms of astrophysics but that’s okay!

In related news, X4: Foundations is currently…[Read more]

Sadly, it’s all opt-out if they even let you. Really getting tired of forced AI content on the web 🙁

It’s not really the browser, it’s on Google’s search results. Bing has similar issues. When I typed in Beetlejuice just now on Bing, one of the suggested search results called it an “American Actor” instead of a film. Ugh.

I smelled and saw a…[Read more]

They should really provide an option to hide the AI, or at least put it at the bottom of the page, if it gets any worse, then another browser is definitely on the table.
All the way from California? Checked the air quality for your area just now, the maps say pretty good, there are some fires around, not too close though, and the southerlies…[Read more]

I think part of it is that people are beginning to realize how far AI has to go. I have a lot of issues with it myself. Since Google added AI summaries to the search results page, I’ve been having more issues finding what I need. I find that the summaries are worded in strange ways that I find difficult to understand, or even inaccurate, and find…[Read more]

Ugh. Have you tested just the Kogan? I see you tested the Philips on its own

Somewhat related but I still haven’t flipped the setting for HDR in my monitor’s setting menu (not the Windows one but the one built in to the monitor). Honestly not sure if I’ll ever get around to it

Wonder if there’s the ability to run oldReddit on a premium account, for no other purpose than requiring the devs to maintain, tease and cajole it into a new shape of old! 😛
NMS is awesome, it’s amazing in all these planetary views the nearby moons and planets loom so large. In reality, the tidal forces would be such that the peaceful pastoral…[Read more]

Old is unbalanced, with an intriguing predicament for its leads. Even though not recommended for the list, it should be watched for the ideas, and the ways they could have better formed the movie. Running past full time, yet the myriad of unanswered questions at the end makes it incomplete, while a lot of stuff can be edited out. Fun fact, it’s…[Read more]

After 15 years, memories of broken keyboards are as clear as a discarded CRT tube lying under the burnished sun.

NMS update just landed! It looks incredible!

Yep, we get those too! Most of them are shown on the Hallmark Channel. The ones on streaming are a bit…worse 😛

Finished up Fallout yesterday. It was pretty fun at the end but still left me wanting for more. They did a good job of showing more of the varying vault personalities and the strife between factions. Fortunately, we’re getting another…[Read more]

Yeah, Windows is hit or miss with regards to obeying the driver update settings. Though, the policy setting is almost always obeyed. It’d be less annoying if WU would actually update intelligently instead of “updating” a user installed driver to an older version in the WU Update Catalogue 😛

On Linux, you can downgrade any package (kernel,…[Read more]

Good to know that nothing is seriously broken 🙂

I still haven’t played Eternal Darkness. It really needs to be released again 🙁

Ouch! Roger Moore had the nicest voice of all the Bonds IMOP. 🙂
Recently came across two “placeholder” films on offer by fta 9Now, Death She Wrote (TV Movie 2021), and Deadly Influencer (TV Movie 2019). There are literally thousands more like these made every year. The movies do all the right things required to make the movies watchable, problem…[Read more]
