If I’m not completely mistaken M_PI is not part of the C standard, so depending on your stdlib or compiler or even compiler flags you will have to define it yourself even in C.

I just use the pi from my calculator or numpy/matlab. But I’m often too lazy for vacuum speed of light and use 3e8 m/s.

Transistors were mostly developed for telephone systems (the ones with wires) as a replacement for tubes. And the modern tech used for radios is very different from that used for computers.

No, Hertz never lived to see applications of his discovery. Guglielmo Marconi (was a fascist) started working on radio telegraphy in 1894, shortly after Hertz’ death.

No.

Idk, when I behave like this people call me toxic.

The first game wasn’t bad, but it didn’t really feel like a full price title.

I keep repeating this to everyone who’s listening and add that cats have clown feet.

I keep a list in a plain text file. It has sections for each year and one section for games I’m interested in. The list used to be on paper and I’m considering going back to that.

This. Most classes in uni allowed us to have a limited number of cheat sheets and after writing them I rarely used them. Open book exams are a different beast though.

They are in almost all open world games.

It changes the direction of the velocity vector, but not the magnitude.

Pretty sure the left pedal is the clutch, not the brake. And the steering wheel doesn’t accellerate.

Well, the ending of the third book changed a lof in the world. A sequel could be interesting, but unless everything goes to shit the world would go to something we could consider normal, a world without the hunger games. This mostly leaves prequels, so far they were all tied in some way to the hunger games, but there are more prequel options like something during the first revolution.

Yeah, that was an interesting bit, how they replaced her. Same with the reaping escalating and one of the tributes getting killed. But the general plot follows the first book very closely, I suppose that’s to be expected as the games are more or less always the same, just with a different arena.

I got Borderlands 3 about a year after release for less than 5€, I can wait.

EBU members are allowed to participate, for example Morocco participated in the past, and Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan participated this year and aren’t really located in Europe. Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon, and Jordan could also participate, but never have. AFAIK most the countries outside Europe that could participate, do not because of Israel.

Voting is exlusively via SMS, the voting app also just sends an SMS and so does the website. The only country not doing televoting is San Marino, too small and relies on Italy, if you send an SMS from there it’ll be probably counted as Italy. SMS is a crappy system and you can put whatever you want as sender (sometimes for codes you get an SMS not even from a number, but from a name because there’s no restriction on that). You can pretend to be someone else relatively easy and the receiver has no way of checking if it’s even a real number.

This, maybe the voters didn’t understand the lyrics.

Happened last year too, similar number of votes, but they got fifth place because the first four got much more points than this year.
