A shocking amount of microcontroller manufacturers have eclipse based IDEs for their chips. Thought that seems to be going out of style, luckily.

I was actually offered a Bachelor thesis topic by a company to write a test bench for a product in LabView.

From what they told me and my other engineering experience I’d suggest going with an approach similar to what’s used with HDLs. For unit tests create test benches in the language itself which call the functions you want to test with a predefined input (e.g. from a file) and then analyse and save the output.

You can extend this to obtaining other information as well, but tbh I’ll bet it’s still gonna be a pain.

Hope that helps at least a little.

Runescape/Old school runescape

Been playing since 2009. Sure I’ve taken breaks, sometimes multiple years, but I always return.

The old saying is true, “You never quit runescape, you just take breaks”

Melvor Idle is a great call. The base game is a solid idle game and there’s a load of mods too.

I did a HCCO12B (Hardcore combat only, 12 bank slots only) run when the game first released.

Reinstalled the game yesterday and started another HCCO run using the new mod, it adds some QoL and tweaks.

My only negative about it is that when playing normally, I always feel like there’s a perfect/optimal strategy and I should figure it out before playing.

My Harman Kardon pc speakers. They are as old as I am. Here’s a pic of the same model I found online.

Another system that does it well imo is Shadowrun. In 5th edition (never played the others) when you cast a spell you can take mental damage. If you cast the spell on a weak level you are fine but if you go full-out then you can KO yourself pretty quick. Especially if you roll bad on your damage resist roll.

Up until recently I was using a gtx 1060 just fine. Not sure about the high end ray tracing stuff though.

I’d say give it a try, I had a great experience. Never had any proton issues with an nvidia card my self. Just keep in mind nvidia drivers on Linux are notorious for being bad. If you choose an LTS distro or one that packages the drivers you’ll be fine though. Pop!_OS LTS with the nvidia drivers is what I ran.

Same. At least with Deus Ex I have some hope left. Iirc the studio (Eidos?) was sold by Square Enix and the new owner may have them work on a new Deus Ex.

If you like those kind of games it may also interest you that Dishonored 3 being planned was part of the leaks last week.
