@beardalaxy @RK7 If you want to get a little schizo, maybe the Donald Trump in the Joe Rogan interview wasn't really him.

@wowaname Because the thing looks like a grill.

@Mr_NutterButter Like I said earlier, neither one of them gives a fuck about the borders. Both parties pretty much have the same stance on borders, despite what most people claim. The Democrat party still supports border patrol even if Democrat voters believe in open borders, and the Republican Party only cares about Muslims and the Mexican border. Last time I checked, Trump is still all in on mass Indian immigration.

The whole border issue is just another trick of the two-party illusion.

@nicholas @beardalaxy I don't even know for sure what's going to happen. I do know that people are losing faith in both parties.

I see more and more people either focusing on state/local elections, or focusing on purely grassroots activism. More people are pulling their kids out of schools and homeschooling them. People who can afford it are living off-grid. There is a quiet revolution going on, even if the media isn't covering it. Maybe I'm a bit optimistic on it, but the government is sure noticing it and it's trying to bring people back into the two-party illusion. How it's going to work out, I don't know.

@nicholas @beardalaxy A lot of people were off the Trump train after COVID, I think if he fails to deliver his promises this time, it will be the final nail in the coffin for him and maybe the political system for the right.

@PurpCat @beardalaxy Most of the "elections are scripted" conspiracy theorists believe that they are going to rig it for Trump, either to pacify people or because he will better support Israel.

>migration and cultural erasure has accelerated

Yet, people don't realize that neither one of them is for open boarders nor closed boarders (at least in the absolute sense). I think even Trump is still on board with mass Indian immigration.

@beardalaxy Trump is making huge promises. I feel like it's either he's going to have to fulfill those promises or the masses are going to revolt.

COVID has already destroyed a lot of faith that people still had in government. I don't think that even the most diehard Trump supporters can tolerate any more broken promises.

@wowaname @bonkmaykr I'm talking about having a JavaScript file for writing the links for the sites navigation. So I can just edit the JS file instead of each page.

I know you could also do that with server-side scripting or a static-site generator, but sometimes I just want to get things done and have it run on any webserver.

@wowaname @bonkmaykr Does this mean that I should stop using JavaScript to load navigation bars?

If Trump wins and doesn't abolish the income tax, I wonder if that will finally wake people up about (s)elections and finally get the masses to revolt.

There is now a spark where your sword strikes during the boss kill freeze-frame.

@cjd That liquid is adhesive. If you watch the video they even turn the glass upside down and it's still stuck to the bottom of the glass.

@djsumdog Gemini is terrible. ChatGPT is at least decent at boilerplate stuff.

Not necessarily programming, but I find it really useful for generating HTML5 templates without the bloat (no unnecessary JavaScript or CSS frameworks).

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?! SFML had a depth-buffer, then removed it because Laurent Gomila thought that a 2D library didn't need it.

Except, you DO need it. Sometimes you need to dynamically change the orders in which sprites are drawn, especially for 2.5D games just like what this linked article is talking about.

The article below talks about a solution using OpenGL and a derivative of SFML's vertex arrays, but that seems way too complex for something that should be dead simple. This is part of the reason why SFML will never be on the same level as SDL. I only use it because I have this weird urge to be different....to my own detriment.

Back from the quad-yearly tradition of writing myself on the ballot.

Ever since Nintendo and Game Freak established The Pokémon Company, the quality of Pokémon games and anime has dipped!

@icedquinn They're good for boilerplate stuff, but you need to do the rest yourself.

I find that they are really good at generating HTML5 templates and the resulting templates don't have any JavaScript or other unnecessary bloat. I highly recommend using that over downloading HTML5 templates online.

@eric No. I want it to happen, even though it's unlikely.

To anyone who has out-of-body-experiences regularly, can you please astral project to the alleged moon landing sites? It's time to know once and for all if the moon landings actually happened.
