@skyblond opengl is totally doable, you will just be coding at the vector level, so rather tedious. Thats what you get with low-level really.

If you want something easy but powerful consider scene-graph type engines on top of opengl, they are way more intuitive.

@skyblond do you have to calculate out a circle by hand? I havent used lwjgl

lol trezor (A cryptocurrency hardware wallet) is releasing a game firmware that will include a tamagotchi that you feed ETH to (real money) to keep it alive and then can sell it as an NFT... Part of me wants to be disgusted at the useless waste of money, another part of me wants to bring back to tamagotchi pocket monsters!

@stux Think of a really simple example in the linux world.. memory cacheing to reduce disk IO access... will work great if your accessing the same data over and over again (say different parts of a 2GB file, so the whole thing is loaded into memory)... but that same configuration where you are reading data sequentially and never read the same data twice, then you will see no improvement at all.

@stux its not a 1:1 thing.. you might be able to tweak preferences for an algo to be a bit more space efficient for compute efficency or vice versa.. but whether you actually get that result depends largely on the data it is seeing.

I keep all my stuff in a lockbox in a bank and use a strong passphrase I memorized so even that isnt enough.

"I still have some bitcoin somewhere"... lol its probably 10K by now :)

@Acer So utilize the space.. Like i said java is not a language suited for memory space optimization. If you need low-level control of data at a memory level you need to use a different language.

@Acer you dont, if you care about low-level aspects dont use java.. Your other option is to declare an int and just assign the bits manually.. but if your asking this question you are simply using the wrong tool, thats not the tools fault its yours :)

I'm glad at least some people are seeing the rhetoric. Not much has changed under Biden... the scary part is people seem to love to act like it has...

Schools that punish students for social media comments posted on their own time, outside of school, need a lesson in the First Amendment, we told the Supreme Court. eff.org/press/releases/schools

@swiley

filecoin has a way to go I agree. However getting in on the developing coins that ont have a foothold yet is how you made the big bucks. I invested in eth the first day it was on the mainnet.

That said its 3rd in my list even behind another more novel coin (cardano) so clearly i dont but it too high either.

@lucifargundam

@rodolpho haa so you heard some interview in a single report with a conspiracy theorist that thinks like you, and a who report that didnt even address the subject and you think this qualifies as "the new position the media is taking"... yea sorry no its still a conspiracy theory

@lucifargundam The mid february to early march mini nasdaq crash fueld crypto (tends to be negatively correlated, this doubled down with pypals recent adoption of cryptocurrency in both online checkout as well as venmo, which is a huge breakthrough in actually seeing it used as an everyday currency. So thats why im moving more into crypto in general.

As to where I am focusing my funds, by far im allocating most of my crypto investments to cardano since they are a relatively new crypto doing all the right things, the most heavily developed crypto right now, and with a very sound roadmap that resembles ethereum without all the mistakes ethereum made, they are getting 41% of my crypto assets.

Ethereum is 2nd at about 23% of my crypto holdings because while they dont look as good as what cardano will be they are far more mature with a much more active dAPP collection , and it works.. keep in mind the 23% figure is raw ethereum and not counting EC20 ethereum tokens of which I have many.

Filecoin, HOT, and TRX are my third tier investments taking about 20% of my portfolio.

The remaining of my portfolio are small investments in mostly ERC20 tokens like COMP
