Yes VSCode, I obviously want to use the color-picker to edit my address offsets in Arm assembly 😂
@stacksmashing undeniably useful 🙂↕️
@stacksmashing a very different type of vibe coding.
@stacksmashing chrome was doing that to me too on compiler explorer. I just ignored it but with your toot. I wonder what the fuck changed.
This was on chrome on windows 10 (not even 11).
@pinskia this is a feature of the specific code editor. If you’re seeing it on a webpage, either that webpage is providing it as a feature intentionally, or you have a developer browser plugin you’ve forgotten about.
@0xabad1dea @pinskia compiler explorers uses the same underlying editor library as VSCode I think
@stacksmashing You should pick mauve. It has the most RAM.
@stacksmashing this buffer feeeeeels… lilac to me
@stacksmashing I always pick my offsets with the color picker. You guys don't?
@stacksmashing you can also use mspaint as your assembler by carefully picking colors

@stacksmashing

At the risk of victim shaming someone who develops in asm: Are you sure VS Code is the best tool for the job as opposed to the back of a fag packet or vi with the safety catches switched off?

konsole does a similar thing too and it is generally useful there. Its one of those skills that you never needed but looks cool until it starts colouring in asm and then you realise:

Fuck me. The AI SkyNet agents of doom really will trip on the stairs and probably even hallucinate stairs in the first place.

@stacksmashing I see you have the RGB RAM

@stacksmashing

...you...you almost could. If it were RGBA and you stuck to arm32...

"Yes my program is mostly green but occasionally a deep purple. This program, like all my code, is highly transparent."

@stacksmashing I don’t even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, redhead.
@stacksmashing i think you need to blame the set of plugins you’ve activated there, not the vscode itself ;)
@hollowone It's not even a plugin - it's the default behavior :D
@stacksmashing new esolang just dropped

@[email protected] programmers at bell labs called it an "address spectrum"

@stacksmashing I always edit my C/C++ preprocessor directives using a color picker.
