If someone asks, I'll offer to buy them food or other supplies. My wife hands out handwarmers during the winter. We used to put together care packages for people, but lost the habit. I don't give out money because I don't want to enable addictions. When you offer something other than money, you are able to more easily separate people who want a fix over people who want to improve their situation. Your resources go farther when you help the latter.

edit: One thing that helps people out a lot is buying them public transit passes. It gives them mobility to get to shelter/services they wouldn't have access to otherwise.

And technically you can still do that, but it's super laggy. Playing a game through X11 forwarding would be horrendous

Not sure I understand your comment on multithreading. pthreads are not very hard to use, and you have stuff like OpenMP if you want some abstraction. What about C is not ideal for multithreading?

Nobody tell dunkey we're getting another game with a girl wielding a sword.

Looks interesting for sure, but the frame rate was hurting in some spots of the trailer. I don't have much faith in them nailing the performance side of things

Thanks for the details! I have done MPI work in the past, so I was curious how an MPI implementation and iceoryx2 might be similar/different regarding local IPC transfers. It'd be interesting to do a detailed review of the two to see if they can benefit from each other.

Can you explain on a high level how iceoryx2 is able to achieve low latency? Is it as simple as using shared memory or are there other tricks in the background? Are there different transfer methods depending on the payload size?

Guaranteed that several of the best pizzas you have eaten had oil and sugar, unless you've only ever eaten neapolitan.

Just cook your rice with less water. Achieves a very similar effect.

For a second I thought this was going to be a "Bad Company" spinoff of Battlefront

Sure, it meets the technical requirements to be a comic. But it doesn't meet the practical requirements to be a good one.

Yeah but comics are also supposed to be creative. This is a essentially a lemmy comment with illustration.
