/sqt/ - Stupid Questions Thread

Thanks, man, I looked at the asm for last two and you're right, they're basically the same. I though the darker highlights were indicative of performance hits.

The highlights are random colors for matching up with the assembly.

Also be sure you have -O2 in your compilation flags so you get the optimized assembly that you'd get in the real world.

Whats the equivalent of veracrypt for android?

Another question, is there a ever reason you'd not want to turn on optimizations for production code, and if not, is there a reason you'd use anything other than O3?

is there a way to get a version of win 10 free?
Im too poor right now to buy and I have an old windows 7

>is there a ever reason you'd not want to turn on optimizations for production code
Generally no.

Each optimization level adds additional optimizations based on a compilation time/performance improvement/weirdness tradeoff. O1 enables a bunch of "low hanging fruit" optimizations that don't add a lot of time to the compilation process. O2 adds more complicated optimizations that take longer to perform but catch more complicated optimization opportunities. O3 takes even longer, and adds a few minor optimizations for extreme edge cases. It's very rare that O3 ever ends up faster than O2 - they're usually the same. However, each optimization level performs many of its optimizations by abusing undefined behavior. If you only rely on fully standards-compliant code (pretty much never the case in any non-trivial program), then you'll never see a difference in behavior between any of the optimization levels. However if you are unintentionally relying on undefined behavior, the optimizations that are most likely to change that behavior in unexpected ways are in O3.
So it's arguably better to use O2. You get the same speed and a smaller chance of the compiler fucking you over for using undefined behavior. In practice it hardly matters. They're going to be identical in the vast majority of cases.

i just do what works, down to 8px horizontal blanking, 3px vertical.
modern monitors piss themselves if they're given a mode that falls outside of their spec, so you can be sure that when it works, you're fine
the days of a potentially-damaging mode that displays garbage and makes the yoke whine in a weird way are long gone, even later CRT's would refuse out-of-spec modes

Are there any media apps for Roku that support .ass subtitle files? I'm able to get a subtitle track on the default player but it comes up as closed captioning which is very unsightly.

What's a good Bandwidth Throttler? Free, of course. I want download stuff without making the internet unusable
