I started slashing my 7s and 0s in university; it’s just easier to distinguish them thanks to the abundance of Greek letters, symbols, and notations used in engineering. Also my bad printing was further marred by constantly nodding off while taking notes, so anything to improve clarity.
If they curved the tick instead of some angled dash nonsense there would be no mistake. Thus an angled top on a 1, rather than curved, should be a punishable offense
I do, but dependent upon context. If there is no risk of confusion with a capital I or lower-case l (though I tend to write the latter with a slight rightward curve at the bottom), then yeah, it’s just a basic vertical line.
This is a thousand percent more than I thought I’d ever write about my penmanship. Welp.
My underlined 1s look like my 2s when I write with a marker. It’s a problem I didn’t antisipate that arose when I was trying to distinguish my 1s from my Is and ls.
It’s PC using an Xbox controller, which is the best way of playing any game that lets you IMO.
But the game has no idea what kind of button I’m gonna push since the keyboard and mouse are connected too and I’ve yet to press any key or other button at this point 🤷
Technically both PC and console can tell what you have loaded/connected by the drivers in use (maybe other ways too) so it may switch if you unplug the Xbox controller but if it’s a game they expected to be primarily on console, or played with controller they’ll elect to use that verbiage.
But for pc games and stuff regularly played on keyboard, devs choose to use the press any key language (generally).
It might seem silly but UI Devs put a lot of time and effort into making things easy to understand and use and whatnot.
It’s just a meme tho nbd, just figured I’d bring up the convo piece anyway
That comment says more about you than it does about the origins of the word barbarian.
The word barbarian has its earliest known origin in ancient Greece and was used to refer to anyone who wasn’t Greek, and sometimes for other Greeks, who were “different”.
So who do YOU think the “ethnic group” this word refers to is?
Well, most of the time. There's this bastard: Ø.
That's a letter, not a zero. Second-to-last letter in the Danish and Norwegian alphabets. We Swedes use Ö instead.
True, but it’s an old habit to keep it at an even 8 bits and it’s a visual placeholder for me, s’all. Also, I can’t even remember the last time I worked with a nibble, even with simple MCUs.
