Okay, I have some questions about video game programming
How long would it take to learn enough to be competent and create a game like Metal Gear 2 for the MSX? Not MGS2, but the 2D game from the early 90s. Basically, it'd be a 2d stealth game with a top down viewpoint.
What languages should I learn? What software should I use? Also, I want to code it myself. My only experience in coding/programming is front-end web development, and a little back-end with PHP....
You're never going to do it, don't fool yourself

Try gamemaker studio, java/c++, or something similiar. Gamemaker is probably the easiest, GML is fairly easy to learn.
And to make a game a similar to MG2 probably a couple of months depending on level of detail.
The hard part is not the coding but creating all the art assets.

int i = 2;
while (1) {
printf("%d\n", i);
i *= 2;
}
what's the challenge? buffer overflow?

Reposting from previous thread only because I'm a faggot. Was considering these >>57690794 but unfortunately won't be able to purchase anything for a few weeks. (Fuck cops and speed limits)
>Budget
50-80$. If there are any headphones that you absolutely recommend and are just outside of this price range I'd love to hear it

>Comfort level
Gotta be able to wear em for long durations. Maybe 1-2 hours
>Sound Signature
Have no idea. If it helps, I'll be using them primarily to listen to music, not interested in gaming. I'd prefer them to have a mic attachment if possible.
>Past headphones
Never owned headphones before but the JVC HARX-700 were recommended to me a while back.
Thanks
Why was this even ever made?

Because it's not a server and browsing the internet without a GUI is rather pointless.
screenfetch, arch linux, or your rig?
I almost surived the Black Friday without spending a cent, but the fucking Amazon in my country offer the Logitech G502 Prometeus Spectrum RGB at 49€.
Who the fuck cares, would you say, but I also have a code to cut 20€ off if I buy at least 30€ in the "Electronics/Computer" section and a 5€ Amazon gift card to use.
So I would pay it 25€.
Is it a good mouse? I actually using a prehistoric but glorious Logitech G5 and I'm a claw grip user.
>>57690642
No I fucking hate it. Wanna buy it from me? I only used it once
I have it. I like it. Is it the best mouse on earth? Probably not. But for 25€ it's absolutely worth it.
I don't understand these symbols after those numbers
I'm guessing it's a lesser form of freedom currency

I am looking for a website service where I can have a chat room and a video play from youtube but its synced so when someone new logs in, they are on the part of the movie/video we are on.
Also the service has to have guests, no sign ups or log ins. I can make an account to host but 40 people arent going to want to make an account probably.
any suggestions? Ive tried looking up a feew but the first 3 I tried were not what I was looking for.

Who cares. HGST/Hitachi is still king.
>>57691078
I know too much about hitachi to recommend them.
also that chart is only usable for backblaze purposes and shouldn't be used as a general reliability metric.

No, backblaze jus stopped using the 3tb shitty ones
Hi /g/. I'm going to a hackathon tomorrow for "stupid shit no one needs" but I don't know what I should build. What's a terrible thing you wish existed?
Examples of things that have been done in the past include a bus app that tells you what the last bus you missed was, rather than the ones coming up, and something that added banner ads to your terminal.
For a more useful app, you should make something that locates your IP and tells you exactly how far you are from the white house, aka the capital of the world

Chinese people will take bus tours from Vancouver, BC to Woodburn, Oregon just to buy name brand clothes and purses at a lower tax free price.
They care so much about name brands you have no idea.
Little Asian girls at my school use $800 Coach bags to keep their homework and notebooks in, drive expensive Lexuses and BMWs.
It's status symbols.
Anyone on /g/ have their own Home Server? I was looking into building one. If so, what do you use your server for?

-GPL!!!!!!!!!!
>>57690169
That's only 3 facts and they're more like opinions...
Would people pay for software if devs GPL'd instead of having a proprietary license?
>>57690169
It respects your freedom and makes the other party to give you back the code.
If you are serious about an open source software you go for GPL, if it's nothing more than a hobby, BSD is okay
