anti piracy measures and cost cutting when optimizing games
By “optimizing” do you mean going through the source code and adding comments referring to Optimus Prime? Because that’s called “optimus priming” and we had a whole two hours about it in coding camp.
“optimizing” is a portmenteau coming from “optical minimizing”. the technique involves not using glasses, so you can’t tell when your code is trash.
“Optimizing” is where you convince your programmers that microdosing MDMA is great for productivity and they all end up being really optimistic about how their code is doing.
The peer coding review went really well. I think we’re getting married.
I thought I told you to stop giving away my secrets.
Standard autobot documentation. Nice, nice. What’s your TC?
My T count? Unfortunately, I lost count of how many times I typed T somewhere in the 60,000 range, which means that’s what my programming salary tops out at.
May want to see about a refund…
Indie games my beloved
This. My husband used to spend most of his unemployment on graphics cards. All for gaming. All of it.
How “new” is this PC?
Just purchased it from the bargain bin at Walmart two days ago! It’s got state if the art features like 32-bit color (HDR is only 10-bit, so this is advanced!), 8 gigabytes, and it even comes with a built in PlayStation 2!
Why, it was just yesterday when I… oh, come to think of it, that was nearly a decade ago. Huh.
It’s okay, we’re in this together. Though, my rig runs just about everything at medium graphics without issue. Elden ring ran on high settings without dropping my frames to a noticeable level.
Absolutely meirl. I keep making frame rate drops on games, but my CPU is … Checks date… top of the line 2012 tech!
Not sure how new, but has a turbo button. That should be good for something, right?
Ah, yes, the reverse turbo button!
Ok but what crow time comic,
Edit, Crow Time is amazing
