I've spotted a soda / vending machine, @decafjedi.com ๐
The monetary aspect can also be optional, but then the product development cycle will suffer more.
Looking at the long list of contributors for SFML, it's truly a community project, but without the core maintainers, it wouldn't move forward.
Picture of the century. ๐

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn aerial view landscape. It depicts an apple orchard in bloom in the centre, allotments to the left and sheep in their field at the bottom. Train tracks go past the top of the orchard and allotment.
Sewn train tracks past an apple orchard (to the left).
An angled view of a sewn vegetable allotment surrounded by rough land, trees and with train tracks to the left.
An angled view of embroidered bushes and paths going through them leading to an orchard, allotment and fields.
'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!
If youโre developing a narrative/adventure game and want to add voice acting, or your script needs editing, consider reaching out to The Game Editors!

I think you can change the default under "Tools โ Options โ Projects and Solutions โ General โ Default Solution File Format"
Quick reminder that Iโm looking for work, especially for May/June! Commercial or personal commissions - any leads or shares would mean the world ๐ซถ

I was just waiting for it to jump scare me.
Maybe the plastic isn't even food-safe ๐ค
Do you need a SFTP client in your C++ code base?
Look no further!
SFML just added support for SFTP, deprecating the existing FTP client and we even provide a handy SFTP CLI as example!

In December 1995 the first RFC to standardize IPv6 was published. 30 years later, #SFML has just merged support for "the most recent version of the Internet Protocol". ๐ฅณ

I mean it's fine as long as you don't want it checked on Windows ๐
But yeah S.C.R.A.P should work on Windows as well.
In case you want to add a GitHub Action to that repo, note that it won't be able to checkout the repo on a Windows runner, because of the . at the end of the repo name.

Looks like that comment earned me a block ๐
"How dare someone disagrees with my thoughts on generative AI!"
OP: bsky.app/profile/joew...
Of course, if your line of thinking is: "LLMs will make everything and everyone 200% more productive", then that's just a wrong world view sold by LLM companies and the hype train.
Don't jump on the hype train, if you respect other people, other humans.
This line of argument could be applied to more or less anything.
"How dare you use libraries!"
"How dare you use a debugger!"
"How dare you use high-level programming languages!"
At the end of the day LLMs are a tool and there's a gradient of usefulness and "harm". It's not either or.
Any recommendations or disapproval of robotic vacuum cleaners, brands, types, etc.?
The remaining 40% is roughly split 50:50 into minors and the rest.

@infomaniak.bsky.social Translation error in the email template? ๐
@jetbrains.com a few years ago, I registered the domain dotultimate.com as I got annoyed of navigating the website to find the download links. Wondering if you're interested in the domain, as I'm likely letting it expire otherwise.๐ค
Wonder if some check underflows and thinks it's too large, but for the UI negative numbers were prevented or something like that. Maybe also just a wrong error message mapping.
The way disapproval is treated in France vs Quรฉbec at the same employer tells you a lot about the value of labour law protection over any vague idea of "company culture".
Loved @writingexcuses.bsky.social's deep dive in the Close Reading series

Can you also eat it or is it just for the looks? ๐
Enhance!
