Yeah that's JavaScript not Java, which is, uhh, a very significant difference. They're not really close cousins except in sofar as Microsoft named it JS because they saw what Java did with applet webapges and wantes to get in on that. And while it's possible to use JS scripts in unity C# will be faster. And then there's quote:My understanding is that you can't hit the "Create Script" button and select it anymore, but if you have js files, or create new ones, it will still compile them - this is gonna go away eventually though (if it hasn't already and I just didn't read about it) so my advice is do not depend on js files, and don't make new projects that use js. Your apparently a part of the dwindling 3 percent or so of projects that actually don't entirely depend on C# - and I strongly recommend you jump ship and start converting that code to C# because unityscript is done for. So uhh, yeah, no, I wouldn't rely on that. As far as unreal goes I genuinely have no idea what's that about, never used it myself. e: Perhaps amusingly, C# and Java are actually close cousins in many ways, certainly moreso than JS is to either. Also amusingly, C# is also a Microsoft thing, and in fact is Microsoft trying to copy a lot of things from Java, unlike with JavaScript which is it's own thing that has more in common with something like PHP (serverside vs. clientside notwithstanding). anyway I need to sleep sorry for the wordy derail Private Speech fucked around with this message at 05:36 on Nov 14, 2019 |

Another Canadian question about y'all's electoral system: do they not let you register to vote day of? Because not allowing that seems like a scam and a half, is it a recent Tory 'fraud prevention' measure?

No you have to register a few weeks in advance and it's been like that for as long as I'm aware.

big scary monsters posted:"A bit cheeky?" loving hell. I hope they've started googling "tenant's rights" and "computer misuse act" with the VPN off. It's a private network for the purposes of IPA so he's not wrong to say it's not illegal, although he immediately gets into massive poo poo if he actually uses the data for almost any purpose. Also if he is claiming it's a private network he also could be jointly liable if they *do* use the connection for anything illegal.

OwlFancier posted:No you have to register a few weeks in advance and it's been like that for as long as I'm aware. Huh. Now I'm really curious how we got our system. Here they try and register everybody just to speed things along, but if you show up unregistered they'll add you to the rolls as long as you can produce two peices of ID that says you live in the riding (which includes utility bills and such), or any registered elector who will swear an oath that you live in the riding. It might be my favorite goofy thing about our electoral system.

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:Well it's not my stance, sending the tanks in to stop pogroms in Hungary was cool and good. But it was Khrushchev, not Stalin so it's a bit odd to attribute it to people who think Khrushchev was a lying revisionist who ultimately destroyed the USSR and the socialist camp. Which he was. So, just to be clear, WhiskeyWhiskers posted:Nationalism is a useful tool in the fight against white supremacy, colonialism and imperialism. Doesn't count when you're nationalists trying to fight against Soviet colonialism and imperialism?

Vitamin P posted:"it was inspiring threats" okay oval office tell us what threats it inspired Spouting nazi bullshit is incitement to violence against Jews and always has been you dingus. There's no ironic racism, and while you shouldn't get locked up for being racist, nazism is slightly different because the ideology actively encourages violence against Jews and other minorities. It's a core tenent of it and so all nazi hate speech is incitement to violence when done publicly. OwlFancier posted:Sea's the means of porpduction?

Yeah as Private Speech says, in Unity that's Javascript (or more accurately, UnityScript), which is no longer officially supported by Unity. As for Unreal, I wasn't aware of any way to write code in either JS or Java for that - officially I think it only supports C++ and Blueprint which is a kind of visual coding language. C# and Unity is a great combo for making games because it does a lot of the complicated stuff for you, but it can be a bit weird to get used to the workflow at first. Lua and LOVE2D is also a good shout if you want something super lightweight and easy to get to grips with, Lua is a very simple language, although in many ways not very similar to other languages you might want to learn later. Check out the Making Games thread (plus its Discord) and the related-but-more-technical Game Development thread for a lot of helpful info.

Private Speech posted:This reminds me, my landlord forces an adult filter on me too (internet included in the bills/rent). Except he's clueless about technology so I VPN to my VPS and that's that. Frankly I'm curious how he found out, not that it's difficult if you know your way around wireshark or tcpdump, but it seems a bit beyond your average copper. Have you thought about getting one of these home broadband 4G/5G things - I was looking at it for my move - three are doing unlimited home broadband 4G for £25 per month for a 24 month contract (and so long as there's a service if/when you move you can just take it with you). I use a three MiFi and it's great especially when travelling around UK, no cafe or travelodge wifi necessary. Only reason I haven't take it up now is because my electricity provider offered me a deal for 18 months of £13pm for 38Mbps including the phone line rental. But I still might if the electricity deal ends up being shite.

jabby posted:I'd be remiss not to say that the correct order is to see your GP, tell them what you intend to do and then start tapering off your meds. Even if you worry they'll try to convince you not to/tell you it's a terrible idea, you're the boss when it comes to your own health. But they need to know in advance so they can give you any subsequent advice about replacement meds, or how long you need to taper over to be safe. Yeah, duly noted - I've thought about it myself. I don't take it for epilepsy, my psych thought we should try it as a novel treatment for depression and to be honest I've noticed no benefits. I've seen my GP twice to reduce from 400 mg to 300 mg and then down to 200 (where I'm at now) and he was just like 'yeah sounds good', and I felt no negative side effects dropping whatsoever (in fact if anything I felt a little less cloudy-headed). So this is just carrying on a process we've already agreed and worked together on. And I'm also gonna confess that, unfair as it is, I don't really trust the NHS with mental health issues anymore, and feel a kind of knee-jerk reaction to keep it out of my business now. Which I actively know is illogical as I type this, but the feeling is pretty strong. Promise I'll see him when I get a chance though. Edit - once again thanks for this, man.

That's because an anarchist state is literally an oxymoron hth. Anarchists are usually incredibly varied in tactics and range from running parallel structures (eg food banks, community child care, etc) and using the current power structures to boost those alternative ones.

Anarchists have tended to be better at actually *doing stuff* at the ground level, because there's not going to be a state to do it for you so best start organising for yourselves. How to achieve an anarchist "state" has always been the fundamental problem that though, Bakunin by the end was extremely frustrated with the question of how anarchists could grab the levers of power without state apparatus.
