minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink1•1 day agoNice. I wonder if they’d be open to rewriting portions in Rust to catch these types of issues with the compiler instead of the user. I’m willing to help if someone else gets the devs on board.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink1•1 day agoYeah, pretty much. A segfault happens when you access memory incorrectly, and Rust is all about correct memory access.
minus-square@merdaverse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink12•3 days agoHey, it’s open source. Just open a C project from the 90s and fix it yourself. Ez /s
minus-square@iamkindasomeone@feddit.orglinkfedilink18•3 days agoIt’s always the user’s fault. Why do think you could change the brush using an UI element!?

Is this what Rust is about? If so that’s a nice perk!

Isn’t C just wonderful?
Nice profile picture!
