  • Boycott GTA 6 and be done with it

  • It's still a pretty big deal because rockstar games are huge and some people still have bad internet. I probably wouldn't have bought RDR2 on PS4 if it didn't have a physical copy of the game, precisely because I was keeping that console at my parent's place to have something to do there despite their terrible internet connection.

  • Typically I won't vote on the post because it doesn't warrant a downvote imo (but the censorship usually annoys me enough that I won't upvote either) and I'll upvote the comments clowning on OP for sharing censored bs on Lemmy.

    With enough people like me, and some who do not care about the censorship, I can see how we end up in that situation

  • Idk but they're not making France's coins (casually being almost 10 times older than the Canadian mint). Germany even has more than one national mint I think, so I doubt they're making theirs either.

  • I want my language to pass by reference. I give a variable to a function and the variable in the function scope should be a reference to the same place in memory as the original variable.

    I'm not even a C++ wizard or anything (though it's my most advanced language) so I'm not gonna argue that is good or bad, that sounds fine to me for a wide range of applications already.

    But the way is see it, pointers kinda allow you to use "raw memory" which is an actual thing that's gonna be handled by the program one way or another, and it's a way to relatively refer to memory for example. As some guy on stackoverflow put it "That guy at the end for the bar" vs "Bob" can be very useful. Especially when using data structures you don't know the size of at compile time.

  • A pointer to the list would allow you to modify whatever's at that pointer's address though. If you want to look at the list and not edit it you pass by const reference 99% of the time (or you pass a copy) and if your language doesn't have that I don't like it.

  • Pointers explained:

    Jump

  • Most of the time you pass by reference for more outputs, or by const ref to avoid copying a big-ass data structure (which is not always straightforward, with structures smaller than a pointer, which are pretty big in 64 bits architecture, you lose more to the ref overhead than to the copy IIRC)

  • Not sure what they're implying about being forced to sell non refillable vapes. I bought a Centaurus kit (refillable) two years ago and they're still selling. Though the same brand also has lines of disposables...

    In reality the people buying disposables don't want to deal with the hassle that is e-juice (and changing coils). But the modern refillables are pretty good at not leaking every time you look at them wrong, though in my experience the big ones still don't like being upside down.
