I am enjoying the game, except one thing in the story that keeps coming up and causes me cognitive dissonance. I am in the first system and it isn't clear to me why we are not considered Pirates.
The characters are always saying stuff like "Don't be a Pirate" or "Kill all the Pirates". And then we do stuff like steal from factions/corporations that are neutral to us. Why doesn't that cause us to be Pirates?
We literally accidentally kidnapped someone. I am so confused.
So, I have come to the conclusion that the word "want" in my brain has two closely related meanings.
It is hard enough to organize my thoughts normally, but when I have competing wants like Ice Cream, vs to be healthy. It really sucks to have the same word for both.
Does anyone else feel this way? Is there other words that you use to help separated these ideas in your head?
I am writing a unit test and mocking library in C and I want to set the call stack memory to some pre determined value like memset. I want to do this before the test function is called so the test writer can verify they aren't using uninitialized memory in their tests. Is there any somewhat portable way to do this?
I just found out that Battle Bit Remastered exists and it supports 254 simultaneous players per game.
I am wondering how that is even possible. Does anyone know of any details on how they achieved it? Are there any resources for making a networking engine capable of supporting that many players?
