  • 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.









  • 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.





  • Yeah I have the enhanced and 4/6 armour seeds. I know I can do without, I have done a few raids already. I just don’t feel like doing more raids with a d-crossbow if I’m this close to finishing crystal. Especially since using the bowfa is a ton of fun (been using it with the crystal top and slayer helm on some tasks). It would also make stuff like Bandos/Cerb etc better.

    I’ve been afking shooting stars at work. Still a while off 92 mining sadly. I’d love amethyst for the BP. I have a ton of Addy darts but they suck since the BP nerfs.








  • Thanks for the input! The A750 is 254€, the A770 (8GB) is 278€. The extra 24€ won’t break the bank so I thought I’d got with the stronger card.

    I just managed to find a few reputable sites with the 16GB version starting at 385€. Not sure if the extra 8GB RAM are worth it though. I have no real concept of the power difference. It would make the choice a bit more future proof though. I tend to keep my cards for quite a while.

    Do you have any good sources on benchmarks between the 8GB and 16GB versions? I’m not really sure which benchmarks to trust nowadays. I heard some of them skew results heavily in favor of certain vendors.




  • Sorry for the late reply, still getting used to lemmy and missed the notification.

    I’m probably in the minority but I didn’t actually do it to completely de-google. I still have some Google services installed, they are sandboxed and limited to what I actively want though.

    My main reason was removing the insane bloat that comes with modern phones. Think Facebook/Google and vendor specific apps being preinstalled without the ability to remove, forced google search bar on the home screen etc… Now I have a pretty clean, fairly safe, OS which behaves almost exactly like a normal phone.
