Re: [offtopic] List of the most known display resolutions.

Re: Facebook owns freebasic.com

Does that mean all subdomains are owned by Facebook meta? I am in charge of rapidq.phatcode.net, but that the website keeps going is a mystery to me. Also how to get https status on it. Thanks johnk Sorry for the confusion, yes I still own freebasic.net/phatcode.net so there is no problem there. I ...

Facebook owns freebasic.com

I was renewing the freebasic.net registration today and checked to see if freebasic.com was available. Apparently Facebook/Meta owns it. So I guess not lol.

Re: Filenames in DOS

Probably easier to just use DOSLFN. FB needs a pmode extender to run under DOS so it's already not "default DOS."

Re: OT - Destruction of QB64 forum and wiki

I have been hosting freebasic.net since 2005 and the site is regularly backed up.

A few years ago I offered to host QB64 for free but Fellippe said he wanted to handle things himself. I wish he had reached out to me instead of this weird RC Cola guy.

Re: Revamping the forum?

Either it's a setting, or a version issue. phpBB 3.3.5 does show results of code box text, including 3-character words. It's a configuration setting for MySql. I have to make the change on the server, reboot the server, and rebuild the index. I haven't got to it yet. What's new on this ? We cannot ...

Re: are there better AI algorithms for offline [non spam] chatbots?

There is an old book from 1988 titled "Exploring Natural Language Processing" by David Leithauser, which has BASIC code but it's old school spaghetti (line numbers, GOTO, etc). The algorithms also aren't very advanced by today's standards. There are a lot of current books on Natural Langua...

Re: Revamping the forum?

The minimalist design here dates way back to 2005 when v1c first set up the site/forum. It was his preference to have no avatars/PMs/emojis. The site has been redesigned since then but the style was maintained. There is no technical reason why those things can't be enabled, if the majority of the cu...

Re: New FreeBASIC beginners website

I only had time to skim it but it looks pretty good. One suggestion I have is to display the images inline at 100% size. Right now they are resized slightly smaller which makes them appear blurry unless you click on them.

Re: I'm Having a PROBLEM

Yes, the shutdown or reboot would be a sign the PSU is being overloaded and needs to be upgraded. Your PC is not going to burst into flames if you overload the PSU, unless it is very poorly designed. I have overloaded PSUs a couple times. As I said before, his system can supply 25W to the PCI-E slot...
