you are supposed to take 64 random bits, turn the last 52 bits into a float from 0 to 1, add 1, turn the 2nd to 12th bit to an 11 bit integer, subtract 1203, take 2 to the power of that, multiply that by the 52-bit part, and negate it if the 1st bit is 1

I bet Vyxal has a flag for that

i will admit i had to look that up cuz i only have 32-bit float standard for IEEE754 memorizesd

* implements flag * Thanks for the idea :p

TIL the official minecraft wiki changed from gamepedia to fandom

wait, when'd it do that lol

No idea, must've been recent though

I think it was a few weeks ago

i've been wondering if i should get back into playing minecraft but on top of writing bad excellent code for my stupid amazing projects i already waste too much time playing genshin and sometimes osu, league, valorant, apex, or overwatch depending on what i feel like / what my friends are playing :P

If you have to ask "should I play minecraft" the answer is almost always "yes" :p

That may or may not be why I got a B in biology because I forgot about half of my assignments :p

@RedwolfPrograms it costs money:(

Sus

You could always pay for it in a few years and...uh..."borrow" it for now :p

(For legal reasons that's a joke, although it might not actually be)

For legal reasons, Minecraft is a board game.

how tf do you get a B after forgetting about half of your assignments

By being strategic about which ones you forget

true

There were two categories, one was 90% of the grade and the ones I forgot were in the 10% one :p

ah

@hyper-neutrino stoopid. All those games are inferior to the best game: Among Us

From this:

It's not even a question...

Not sure what it's supposed to be, I guess just an ad

Oh wait no

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Its MSE spam

It does mention a problem they're having, actually, but no idea why they provide that background lol

Posts like that are why I'm at 359/500 for Marshal since April

@RedwolfPrograms You;ve been informally requesting greater RO powers on MSE lately right?

I guess so, yeah

Have you seen this?

Have not, that's interesting

The linked question is also an interesting read

Not sure I entirely agree with the power level Mith suggests, but I'd definitely like something more powerful than ROs

It'd be almost completely unfeasible from a dev point of view, but: having the ability to mark a single specific chat room as "the" site chatroom for each site (this would likely be a diamond ability) would be a very nice feature

That's along the lines of what I was thinking, I think most sites have a semi-official main room already so formalizing that and giving the ROs there a bit of extra power is a good idea imo

That could lead to an increased ease in advertising chat, as well as giving the ROs of the main chat room slightly more powers that wouldn't always be applicable in just normal rooms (pinning something specifically as an announcement so that it's advertised on main, extended editing/deletion powers etc.)

I think announcements in general could be a cool feature, something a bit more official-seeming than just pinning a message would be nice

Having important information about elections, rules, etc. given the same treatment as "dad" is funny but maybe not the most effective :p

I should probably just unpin that and leave it on the starboard :P

wdym; it was extremely important to TNB :p

honestly, it might even be important enough to spread across all chat rooms. I think I'll open a feature-request to have it pinned in every room

i think it's important enough to feature on the main site, and possibly broadcast over the entire internet

Let's DDOS the entire world with multiple tbps of "dad". The internet will transmit one thing and it is "dad". It will be glorious.

I say we replace all words in all language with "dad"

Sort of like that BF derivative, moo?

dad dAD DAD dad dad dAd. DaD?

dad :P

We can make it tonal. Dād. Dăd. Dád. Dàd.

Maybe add dåd to really frick with people.

the sequence "get milk from the store" terminates the program

@cairdcoinheringaahing if we weren't dealing with sorting out a recent mess over in Vyxal, I'd totally pin it there

What's this recent mess?

I assume we aren't talking about the mess that is just Vyxal? :P

@RedwolfPrograms we tried a code clean up

But it broke everything

So a standard code clean up?

Yeah pretty much

You know what they say: To make omelettes, you need to, er, nuke a fridge...wait, that's not it

Two birds in the hand is a penny earned

You know what they say: To solve a Rubik's cube, you must first dismantle it

That's better

@user bruh just take the stickers off

why tf would you do that

@lyxal How would that help?

You put them back on, solved

Oh

^^

C'mon this is obvious smh

I've been doing it wrong all this time, then: I always threw the cube down so the pieces fell apart and then put them back together again

I pick it up, spend a few minutes twisting the things around, realise I'm shit at Rubik's Cubes then go cry at my incompetence for half an hour :P

And you never think to just use an online solver?

Smh \s

lol the notation is so hard

i wonder how quickly i can solve a cube now that it's been like, honestly a few years since i actually used a rubik's cube for more than like 3 seconds

i was never good at it

CMQ: have y'all ever learned to solve a Rubik's cube?
