Also it was a very thin reference to GTA Vice City and getting some cash with baseball bat

All good, the comics are funny; and the U's sentense is funny, being unintentionally funny, I would not have compared it if it were not funny.

Okay so our physics teacher told us this joke and only now did I actually get it:

Three guys are in a boat with four cigarettes but no lighter or matches or anything to light them with. What do they do? They throw one cigarette over board and the whole boat becomes a cigarette lighter.

Everyone else uses forward slashes (and by everyone else I mean Unix derivatives).

The backslash has always been used to escape characters, so using them in directory paths is retarded because you end up having to escape your escape characters:



Even worse, when dealing with cmake (or any other cross platform build system), sometimes paths on windows become even more retarded because you have to double-escape the backslash for it to take effect:

I thought of that, but I wasn't going to say anything because I really like my backslashes for directories

Quote: "const char* image="documents\\programming\\media\\image.jpg""


Honestly I don't remember ever having to actually do that. Maybe whichever engine I was using most recently accepted forward slashes even on Windows.

Whaaaaat. That IS retarded! Are you sure you need to be doing that?

Occasionally yeah. Auto-generated files for instance need that, because they are "compiled" twice, so you must escape everything twice. It's pretty stupid.

We were playing pony shipping

@All
I have forgotten to say, that in the comic strip about Jeku's wallpaper I have used original quotes. As they say: "true story".

The True Story issues: 1, 5, 6 (based on this thread), 8 (88), 13, 16.

Is that the one where you first cross breed turtles and tortoise, then bend them into odd shapes and try and build a wall with them?

Well done Mr Handy!!!
You have stimulated community creativity and celebrated us through art.

It is things like this thread that draw interest and effort from the community to the forums-(outside of those talented and hardworking individuals who actually code things and share them).

These sorts of exercises let us have fun in an otherwise unexplored medium.

I would never have thought to draw comics otherwise.

Thanks for a bit of fun.
