Site Feedback and Questions / Re: Our current problem II
« on: September 06, 2011, 08:37:46 pm »
I think it should still be permitted that it be said; perhaps someone can find a less offensive way than as in my example to say it. :/
It's not a viewpoint I agree with, not at all, but saying that one isn't allowed to carefully state one's opinion seems to border on outright censorship, IMO.

I don't know how it was said; I'd find the statement "I believe that gay marriage is morally wrong" to be fine, although discussion might be forced to end after a few replies. Something like "Gay people are sinners" is more directly against the implicated people, and should not be said, though it might, with very careful guidance, be able to lead to something better. (And obviously the Westboro Baptist Church's "God hates fags" is an "apologize or else insta-ban" sort of thing.)

1: Don't talk about controversial topics in a way that shows how you feel about it.
I'd weaken that to "Don't talk about controversial topics in a way that strongly criticizes another's views on it."
Quote
2: Don't talk about controversial topics that will lead to debates and then to arguments that will hurt others.
There's nothing IMO wrong with debates so long as they are civil. As soon as they leave civility, though, the debate should be immediately dropped.
Quote
3: Don't belittle others; you're not them, they're not you.  They'll have different opinions and they should be respected.
I agree about not belittling others. The antecedent of the second "they" in the second sentence is ambiguous (Does it refer to "others" or to "opinions"?), by the way; I'd say to respect others as long as they deserve it (If uncertain, err toward respect), and similarly for opinions, though there are many more opinions unworthy of respect. (Again, do err toward respect.)
Quote
4: When in doubt just don't talk about controversial topics at all.  Switch the IRC subject to something productive.
IRC? Productive? :P More seriously, I'd say just to move away immediately in case of problems. But don't bring up a topic that you aren't prepared to be reasonable and calm about it. Similarly, don't join in if you can't be reasonable and calm about it.
I refrain from saying anything other than this sentence about jkag.

TI Z80 / Re: Fantastic Sam is Fantastic

Looks cool; I'll be sure to try it at some point.
The wavy (?) text reminds me of the text in Benumbered v2.0. :)

Computer Projects and Ideas / Re: Java - Falling Blocks

You capitalized it incorrectly ;) Use "FallingBlocks" instead of "Fallingblocks" and try again. :)

The Axe Parser Project / Re: Axe Parser
« on: September 02, 2011, 08:53:28 pm »
We weren't talking about sub( ;)
A(LB)()
Lbl B
Disp >Dec
Return

Currently, this will display the address of Lbl B. The proposed change will make it display A instead, which is much more useful

Lua / Re: Put programs on to calculator

Use Luna to convert them, and then they can be sent :)

The Axe Parser Project / Re: Axe Parser

No, I think he is saying that hl will remain intact as you call the subroutine. 
Fixed that for ya ;D
Edit: 2^11th post!

Computer Programming / Re: NoneType!? Function "transall" causes it, why?
« on: September 01, 2011, 10:01:50 pm »
Could you give the full error that you're getting, like you had it earlier? The line numbers etc. are incredibly helpful.

The Axe Parser Project / Re: Axe Parser
« on: September 01, 2011, 09:57:41 pm »
Not exactly. We can already use HL for optimization and other things. (e.g. Pxl-On(0,,Pic0) vs Pxl-On(0,0,Pic0))
His proposed change would keep HL intact across a variable call.
Runer etc.: I take it that this extends also to such as (R*3+LA)()? (call via a jump table)

Other Calculators / Re: Which calculator is recommended?
« on: September 01, 2011, 12:24:26 am »
Annoyingorange, I think you mean to suggest the TI-84+ or TI-84+SE ;)
I second getting the TI-89 Titanium. Among other things, you can easily use C and it compiles well for the 89's m68k processor, unlike for the 84+(SE)'s z80. It also doesn't need its OS hacked to use native binaries.
Unfortunately, the TI-89T is, as DJ said, not very popular :/ [offtopic]TI-89T revival, anyone? I want one myself.[/offtopic]

TI-BASIC / Re: Get and Send communication
« on: August 31, 2011, 11:23:14 pm »
Indeed, that is how one bit is sent. For the whole protocol (and more!) I recommend the TI Link Protocol & File Format Guide v1.4. It's old, but that's fine unless you want Nspire and better USB information.
Edit: Given Deep Thought's comment and calc84maniac's post, what's this doing in the TI-BASIC section?

If in function translate json.load(...) returns None for some reason, then you'll get the error. (Seeing as None['responseData'] makes no sense)

Site Feedback and Questions / Re: SSL
« on: August 28, 2011, 02:29:28 pm »
A bit of a necropost, but I enabled SSL a while ago. The downside is is that certificates are expensive, so anyone visiting will be getting an 'Invalid Certification' message they'll have to ignore.

ASM / Re: Problems with Port $2A
« on: August 28, 2011, 11:37:05 am »
Monkeyanator, you have made 3 posts in various topics that are all similar, the most recent two being exactly the same. If you are not a spambot, and are just very confused, then please delete your other two posts and create a topic introducing yourself via this link.
Edit: And on a less threatening note, welcome to Omnimaga! :)
