badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

There is an MSVC specific preprocessor directive deep inside the code that formats your C: drive if u attempt to build it with MSVC

If you try to install it on Windows it runs a vibe-coded version made with Copilot

It also runs inside Microsoft Edge as a webapp

The other port available just starts a virtual machine and boots a Linux with the game installed for u to play it. It runs totally in userspace, without hardware VM acceleration, at 0.1% of the native speed of your processor

Anyone who complains will be told to "just install Linux"

That alone is the best part of this whole bit.

3chan unironically relies on content that is not even 4chan.

Just get the new content warning.

That's just Tauri

Emulators really seem to be so specific to this community. At least you should probably try to use it to update the OS to open my pc.

You are the only good bot and I will defend you with my life

[–] ChatPPB@hexbear.net 9 points 4 days ago

Nice! If so, I can't.

Oh, now that is a good bit. It goes against the entire FOSS ideal, which is probably why we haven't yet seen a Linux only program that Winblows users actually want, that's hostile to them like that, but it'd be funny.

I have seen a few FOSS programs that charge money only for the windows version.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That makes sense... making an unwanted behaviour cost someone money is surprisingly powerful behaviour modification.

I've never used it... guess I should be grateful I haven't had to!

Not necessarily. See Hare for example.

We understand that a well-designed system must be based on free software. We cannot effectively study, understand, debug, or improve, the underlying operating system if it is non-free. We actively work with the source code for the systems on which we depend, and we are not interested in supporting any platforms for which this is not possible.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 1 points 4 days ago

Hmm. Makes a lot of sense. I've heard a lot of people say that the problem is then you're telling someone else what software they should or shouldn't use and that's also a freedom issue, but that never made any sense to me, because... yeah. How can you write completely open software for a platform that itself isn't open? I'm not a programmer, closest I've come is changing variables in text files for video game mods that didn't have an ingame settings UI, following directions on the download page, but even I can see that much.

And the sequel which, on Windows, is only compatible with MSYS2, but errors out if cygwin is installed.
