The board is still in development, so things might break from time to time. Don't report bugs after they've already been fixed.
Also, it should be quite obvious a Unix path, as reported by PHP error/warning messages, is not an URL.

Canned.

Disregard the doubled curly after the else if statement, I apparently copied it by accident when reformatting the code to display right in HTML.
It's just
...
} else if(r==0xFF) {
fread...

But yeah, I never paid much attention to the curly placing.
void function(int lol)
{
stuff
},
void function(int lol) {
stuff
}
and void function(int lol) {stuff} all are fine to me.

You know that "kernal" is a generally discouraged and altogether incorrect when applied to the OS component spelling of the word though?

Sorry, I couldn't help it.

Generally speaking, the coke I drink every day alone is more than sufficient to satisfy my needs for C₆H₁₂O₆ and any polymers based on it.

As far as I know, it always said "kernel", "kernel32" etc., which is the correct spelling.

For single statements, I usually do
if(foo) bar();
The only exception to that is when I need MSVC++' line-based debugger to distinguish between failure in evaluating foo and bar. In that case, I do
if(foo)
    bar();

Also, I think
{
    foo
}
else {
    bar
}
or even
{
    foo
}else{
    bar
}
is much friendlier to read than
{
    foo
}
else
{
    bar
}

<code> isn't a tag at all afaik.

You probably meant <pre> (as in PREformatted), but that would yield doubled line breaks with Acmlmboard...

I should port my

...

tag to Acmlmboard2.

While I certainly could port my old board1.x CP over to board2, that's quite a bit down on the priority list right now.

I pronounce it like the "char" in "charcoal", which is probably what you meant. xD

Well, I have access to the board database... kinda, but you don't even see me on staff because of that.

Your access shouldn't be anything beyond seeing the database's name in PMA anyway.

Stifu: I think the MySQL console is a very fast way to do any of those

From roughly 00:05 to pretty much right now (10:40), the server the board is hosted on was down. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by that.

The tech support I called when I got up (~09:55) (they don't work 24/7 here so I had few of a chance to do it before) told me the power supply of the machine got fried and they had to replace it.

As you can see, it's back up now anyway.

Regards.

1280x1024 on my desktop, 1280x768 on the laptop.

I would prefer 768x1280 for the sake of comfortable coding so much.

C - like a lot. Still pretty much my favourite language.
C++ - While I quite like it, it does have some obvious design flaws.
Objective-C - C++' forgotten evil twin brother. Weird in any sense that word can convey.
x86 assembly - Intel syntax: like, AT&T syntax: dislike. Though it might be for large parts because I got used to the former too much. xD
PHP - a chimera of a language. While it's certainly practical for some purposes, the language design is a horrible mess.
Java - Dislike. The VMs are memory whores, fairly slow (at least under Windows) and the whole language design doesn't appeal to me. Then, I am biased because I have an antipathy against Sun Microsystems ever since Solaris and CDE.
Brainfuck - lolz
Lua - Stinks of BASIC.
Pascal, Object Pascal and everything related - dislike. Bulky languages, too much focus on noob friendliness and not nearly as powerful as I'd like to see a language.
Visual Basic - if you like Excel, then perhaps... *cough*
Scheme - Oddball. Though, in an alternate world, with other processor designs and stuff... it probably could implement certain algorithms much more effectively than today's languages can.
ASP - Basic for LEET WEB DESIGNERZ LOLOL
JavaScript - Miserably implemented, buggy, slow... dfgdsfh
65c816 assembly - Nothing too good or bad that can be said about it.
Atmel AVR assembly - Interesting, though the abundance of registers (32 of them on the platforms I worked with) often requires/encourages vastly different approaches at implementing things from what you do on systems with a small count of working regs.
eAthena scripting - SDGH"!$!"$()/!=#?

QBASIC, back in 1992 or 1993.

Does that count as coming-out?

I alternate between x/y/z, i/j/k, n/o/p for loop counter variables, either entirely pointless stuff like asdf1 through asdf6 or temp or cryptic abbreviations like nLC or lctr, often also numbered in a "fl1" through "fl6" fashion. Sometimes, I resort to short but descriptive lowercase property names too, especially when I plan on dealing with the code for a longer time or even on making it available to others.

US streets sure must be looooooooooong.

I am currently living in house# 4. Would likely be the lowest one.

If I recall correctly, the highest numbered address I ever lived at was 63, back in Russia when I stayed with my grandmother for a short time (like 1 month)...
