Can I request 64-bit native .debs now? Because I want them. T-T

No, because my CPU does not support hardware virtualization, which in turn means I can't emulate 64-bit OS. At least not with VirtualBox.

Ah, that sucks. Well if I could figure out why it won't compile for me, I'd just self-compile. But it keeps telling me I need Lua to Love. But I've got Lua. Maybe not the right version, then? I dunno. I'll make a support topic at some point. Or just install a 32-bit image using VirtualBox. *lazy*

I like the idea of hybrid Lua and C in LÖVE, but I don't know any C. I do know JavaScript though. I'd löve to be able to include JavaScript in my coding as well.

Maybe also implement WebKit in there somehow so we can program using the best of Lua, CSS, JavaScript, C and HTML5. As long as you can keep up the speed.

Oh, and if we're adding languages, don't forget brainfuck, whitespace, anything-else-useless.

Seriously, it's possible to want TOO much Jasoco..

Or what about Befunge? I think I can't accept a LÖVE 1.0 where you can't include a Befunge program in your games.

What, no Shakespeare or LOLCODE?

Seriously, though, while C can be awesome, it can also take a heck of a lot longer to code something in. There's already a Vala binding for Lua, which means it can be used from Genie.

Wouldn't mind seeing a Hate++, though. Can has generic programming? ^^

Do go on if you enjoy mentioning programming languages, but know that C has already been embedded. It is not a matter of discussion which language is to be used. It's C. :ultraglee:
