>have multiple frames of input lag that is almost always due to the engine, which is almost always UE4.
Is UE really that bad?

>>9021
>>9020
I'd like to know if any /tech/nicians had worked with UE can attest to this. I worked with UE4 in the past, but I never got very far due to inexperience, the lack of meaningful tutorials that taught you how to use the damn engine, and just how confusing the entire process/system was.

I mean, I shouldn't expect it to work like gamemaker or construct, but damn, so many pieces to get shit working.

>>9017
Read it again, he specifically mentions Apple 2 and how they feel more responsive than any modern shits, even though their CPU have less transistors than modern keyboard. xD
And that's before even bringing in the lag of modern terminal emulators. It gets even more shitty than just the keyboard.

>>9020
I never played any modern games, so whatever. But still, reaction time in arcade systems can't have lag. Emulators of course are shit and keep getting shittier on their own, in addition to the shittiness introduced by modern hardware and OS.

>muh input lag
>no mention of Redditarch's runahead
It's one of the few good things the libretro trannies have put into their bloated nigger frontend, its AoT execution method may be a meme but it werks provided you have enough computer.
On that note, how much of a shitshow is MiSTer in regards to input lag when using actual system-appropriate input devices via SNAC?

I wouldn't buy the MISTer tbh. At that price I'd just get the real thing and be done with it. Either is pretty expensive right now, ever since the retro bubble happened (I guess youtube videos started this shit?) But since there's an economic meltdown coming, maybe I'll have opportunities to finally get some real 1980's gear. Been stacking silver bigly, so my savings will remain intact no matter how many banks go under.

>It doesn't matter if you believe me or not
I fully believe that you tried to configure an init system without even knowing which one it was, failed and rage quit. It doesn't mean anything except that you're an idiot.

>I fully believe that you tried to configure an init system without even knowing which one it was
You're allowed to believe whatever you'd like, even if its braindead and entirely wrong. I've always selected Sysvinit when configuring Devuan. Its shitware and a relic of time, but guaranteed to work as the default. You potentially being better at using it than me, assuming you're not just an annoying troll, doesn't mean a thing for your intelligence or competence which is obviously lacking based on your posts in this thread. I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand though since you're probably the kind of person who gains a false sense of pride and accomplishment in dealing with the inane like so many others in Linux circles. How sad!

To end this point less arguing, I ( >>9024 )  think that sysvinit had to go but systemd is even worse (but for different reasons). Also, I want to clarify one thing. All *BSD operating systems use init, too. But instead of using SysVinit, they use BSD init (/etc/rc). That being said, almost no one says that sysvinit is better than BSD init (or better alternatives, like OpenRC, Runit, S6, dinit or GNU Shepherd). A problem with sysvinit is that's it's even messier than BSD init. But both are worse than something like Runit or OpenRC because they are slower (they don't start services in parallel) and they don't do any kind of service supervision.

systemd for life

>most people dont write good code
Correct.
>good code is wizard code
No.
Writing software is a matter of design for maintainability. Every part of the software should be ideally self-documenting, modular and kept simple. Wizard code doesn't mean it is good. It means it is hard to understand and change, because requirements always change.
The way how people write bad code is by not making any design. It is the difference between kids lumping sand together to build a somewhat castle looking hill and a well designed building. Bad code are unplanned, difficult to be understood and also perform poorly. Good performance can get you sales and usage, but it is far from being good code. Good code is simple because of well designed abstractions and complete separation between modules.

No rush guise. Rajish here will whip up some code that will make a new thread for us soon, like any day now tbh.

>>8737
To be fair, I'd trust the last programmer the most, because he clearly has the most advanced understanding of what he's doing and is just shitposting with that troll-tier code. Your average monkey would not come up with that logic because the understanding requisite to that sort of problem-solving would be beyond them.

I really like the degrees and bullet characters being on the keyboard.

What do people use the numpad for outside of data entry?

This is what I use to remap some modifiers to make emacs more ergonomic.
partial default modifier_keys xkb_symbols "one" {
    include "us"
    name[Group1] = "English US (Custom)";

    key <CAPS> { [ Alt_L ] };
    key <LALT> { [ Control_L, Control_L ] };
    key <LCTL> { [ Caps_Lock ] };

    key <RALT> { [ Control_R, Control_R ] };
    key <RCTL> { [ Alt_R, Meta_R ] };
};

My dream keyboard would be pretty similar to this, but I would add a dedicated copy, paste and  undo key. The problem Is that copy paste is not consistent across all platforms,

The Dactyl is as nice keyboard, it just happens to be rather hard to get. Best way to get it, is have (or find someone with) a 3D printer, and handwire it. I've been playing with stenograph keyboards, specifically the Steko (pic related).  it's trickier than typing right now, but I hope I can get the hang of it.

I got it, because I figured 1. why bother relearning my muscle memory on a keyboard if it's so standardized, and 2. Why go for all that effort on barely a 120WPM increase when I can go intial D speed at the 200s? I had to get a metal sharpie for the keys though, Fuck me, I hate chording on blank keys when I'm learning new input styles.

FINALLY after all these days (85 uptime) i fucking did it it actually didnt crash the core isolation setting really paid off i finished my session holy shit i feel really good wrestling my adhd all the tasks are done PHEW now where was i? 60 days wihtout any gaming feels really draining due to my ram all filled up but this upgrade should solve the problem
dunno if this counts as OC but did i do good? how do i convert this thing into a sticker for my legion? any settings i should change on my printer or the image viewer?
im gonna put this jak at the back of my laptop (im gonna make a thread on 4chan /g/ after the ram upgrade tomorrow) mwahaha just for the kicks since its all botspam there i wanna liven up that place once in a while

why the heck does audio stuttering happen on shotcut? whenever i play for a few seconds in winPE and how do i zoom in the seekbar itself for precise editing? (man i love opensource so far i did not get errors despite missing MS files though my vcpus did reach 100 during export)
initally i was just looking for youtube video for the [you and what army scene] but all i got was a low quality TV rip im surprised nobody memified this gem of a clip yet (i also included the nanite injection scene and the laser prison scene incase you need those as well)
so here it is my first edited video did i do good? also i found a way to hide the winPE taskbar just by fiddling the registry though i do need to kill explorer.exe first (hmm making a batch script to auto apply registry shoudnt be too hard since a lot of games use fake full screen and its still annoyingly there)

Why should one waste time programming? Everyone should just learn to use what others wrote. Better yet, they should own nothing and be happy about it.

>it had a built in function to draw shit
thats basically just a library you stupid fucking boomer.

Because the first good build system (Meson) was only made recently and hasn't picked up as many users as it should. Most programmers don't know programming itself and are too dumb to know better or they're in a state of learned helplessness and still think build systems are like mail clients which have never been done right. Also, nobody is taught how to write build definitions correctly and few can figure it out by themselves.

>>6674
In their model, anything that maintains a key value store with respect to being up to date is a build system.

>>6674
It makes sense. The tables are build instructions rather than values, which are then processed to make the final result. 
I guess the distinction is that a function either just returns you a result or needs to be called, whereas the build instructions generate automated results.

>What is the reason for the govt to spy on us?
Control and paranoia.

>Do they really do it or is it just schizo shit?
Yes they do it. Mass-surveillance is pretty easy to do since everyone is on social media and has a goyphone.

>how come the school shooter who says he will shoot up a school in instagram DMs the day before the shooting, doesn't get caught?
Remember Waco? Can you trust your government? ((( They ))) get more money for the next budget if there are terrorist and school shooters. It's not just about pure money but also politics. 9/11 was known beforehand (dancing Israelis et. al.) but it wasn't stopped? Why? I bet it was because of money and the Patriot Act (and to get casus belli to attack middle eastern countries).

>>6476 (OP) 
They want absolute control and ownership of everything, from your body to this planet, to the universe. They can't track everything yet, but that is the goal, because they want a system of universal slavery that will last forever and that can never be opposed. Just look at what is happening in the world right now. Agenda 21 has already happened, and Agenda 2030 is being implemented right now. They are already trying to take away people's land and talking about banning car ownership. There is no amount of power that they will be satisfied with.

>>6476 (OP) 
At this point government spying, and corporate spying is pretty-much-accepted-as-fact regardless of what they're actually doing.

the NSA spy-ops are generally seen as gov spying on citizens for stupid reasons. I don't have it personally, but there's a repost that details how there's a recon organization for the US armed forces that basically is the eyes for actual threats against our nation without the need for spying on citizens. 

I don't know, but I have three hypotheses on just why they spy on citizens.
Law Route - "War is changing, we need to look for threats within ourselves,"
Neutral Route - "Better safe than sorry, everyone else is doing it anyway,"
Chaos Route - "Nobody can be trusted, we will not survive an uprising without this,"
