Microsoft Customers Stories

Lenovo builds millions of computers every year, and the company wants its customers to trust that each one arrives configured to the customer’s request.

That is such a bad concept to have. I photo a real diamond and then burn it the nft stands as the real diamond nahhh can’t put an nft on a ring sorry but that’s tosh. Basically saying I can take a photo of a 3 course dinner then look at it for sustenance

Hey I have an idea. Take photos of random children make them into an nft and then claim money for looking after orphans

fathom wadi

thats non-fungible grooming

sour bolt

And in that point I have btc chain and that contains 1000s of orphans. I want my monies

deep glen

making photos of children is --generally-- against the law unless you have permission from their parents.

proud jay

can't have parents if they're orphans I guess?

very strange idea though

# slim atlas Oh your kidneys broke?? Dont worry: Kidney NFTs

U think all those ppl that think nfts hold value understand if the internet or ipfs storage system breaks it’s gone forever. And if you don’t access the image for a while it’s deleted off ipfs anyways. It’s not a permenant storage solution and nothing but back links are stored on chain just references to images that may no longer be found 🤣

deep glen
long ore
#

So guys if I generated something with the old Dall E is it free commercially?

sour bolt
#

Hmmmm I don’t think an ai will take you to court

#

The creators of them may try but they didn’t make the image.

#

And the ai is a self entity so…..

long ore
#

I just saw some AI saying they not commercial or something

deep glen
#

most AI-gen stuff has eula's on rules and rights

#

i.e. you cant use MidJourney generated stuff unless you pay for the license

sour bolt
#

Personally ai gen anything has no ip.

long ore
#

If it's MIT licensed does this means it's free commercially right?

sour bolt
#

What gpl level is the mit stated at?

#

It will usually say attribution no commercial

#

Or something like it.

long ore
#

Seems that it's available for commercial use?

#

I can use this + materialize to create any texture lol

sour bolt
#

Ok so reading mit applies to the software so you would need to run it yourself I’d guess otherwise tied to the sites licences…

long ore
#

What do you mean

sour bolt
#

The mit applies to the source code

#

Not the generated images

#

So say you go to makemeanimage.com they may say images generated here are gpl1 attribution none commercial

long ore
#

The generated images are made by that code tho, the website has no rights to claim them do they?

sour bolt
#

They are running it

long ore
#

The website just runs the code, they did not even make the code, does this make them owners of the images?

sour bolt
#

They can apply whatever they like to it I guess. My honest answer is same as you no conceivable way they could but that licence only holds for the source and it’s distribution/modifications only

#

So your free to use and share the code and make commercial use of what it does… but only if your the one running it

#

That’s a minefield for sure

@long ore it does seem dale was none commercial but now 2 came out it’s cool through their site

I absolutely hate high-traffic area changes that people delay the code review of, and then I have to keep going in, invalidating PR reviews, while trying to get 2-3 approvals or whatever the fuck

#

UGH

proud jay
#

but like 2 months ago was working on something quite structural that other teams use from us, and I had to rebase there every day or would have conflicts with everything

#

that PR ended up with like 450 files changed or somethign

#

of course a lot of them just one line change

#

like if we rename an api function

yolo

the advantage of having a monorepo is that you immediately know where shit needs to be updated though

other than that I hate monorepo

I like being able to search for usages of an API field in the web/ mobile app or whatever in one search, but yeah

I more had a problem with shared CI/CD for backend and frontend, each run took 15+ minutes 😦

proud jay

like if I need a clean build I lose somewhere between 90 - 120 minutes for a build

depending on available cpu

noble plaza
#

Oh Jesus, yeah I'm glad I don't work with C(?)

proud jay
#

it's c++

#

just really large project

#

see this

#

of course that's building everything

#

if I'm just working on a function implementation it's like < 1 min compile

#

but like structural changes take forever to compile

#

we're updating our infrastructure to work on new VDI setup though

#

with incredibuild

#

distributing compilation over 450+ cpu cores

#

can't wait to see results

noble plaza
#

A single function change takes a minute? Yikes

#

Test suite?

proud jay
#

I mean for the compiler to start up, detect changed files, compile, relink dll, a minute is not that bad

#

we have our own build manager system 🥲

#

good thing I also often work on C# code to offset the depression

#

of course for c++ I have the luck to work on developer tools that are used in everyone's code

#

so if I edit 1 crucial header I can affect like 200 files sometimes triggering recompilation

This kind of stuff is why I find it funny when people try to take the stance that humans are more cruel than nature

#

We humans may not be doing the climate any favors, but brutality is more the norm in nature than people like to admit

Most of history has been a fight for survival among the species. Humans really changed the rules in the fairly recent history (in the scope of the planet's history)

But yeah, plenty of roaches and spiders here, never fuck with them. Just wrap in paper and fling them out, safe and ez

and who in the world researched about cockroach eggs going everywhere on death

#

i guess the pesticide industry

fleet tangle
#

How does one "fuck with a spider" ? What would you do? Try to make it your pet?!

night grove
#

I generally let the not-dangerous-spiders be

fleet tangle
#

Probably people who had a cockroach problem, @deep copper

night grove
#

They kill the annoying insects

noble plaza
#

... if I say what I did you'll definitely think I'm retarded

fleet tangle

No spider in the UK is dangerous, but fuck them all.

My girlfriend literally ran over and smacked me in the head hah

Brown recluses live around here. I hope I never see one of those.

fleet tangle

I generally leave them be, but if they come near me, they get a splatting.

night grove
#

Now flies... I have a personal vendetta against flies.

fleet tangle
#

Those are the ones that hide in toilets and bite your arse, right, @night grove ?

night grove
#

My super power is splatting flies with my bare hands

noble plaza
#

I sprayed one with bug spray, but it got moving again. I was cooking, and didn't want it near me. So I picked up a lighter and a can of cooking oil, and blasted it with fire

Nope!

Super dangerous and venomous spider

deep copper
fleet tangle
#

There's a really beautiful spider called metallica somethingorother

night grove
#

Their bite can cause widespread necrosis of the victim's skin

deep copper
#

when there's an insect picture i try to avoid those pixels on my screen, so weird

night grove
#

It's rare, but quite a dangerous possibility

noble plaza
# deep copper that's dangerous

Yeah for sure, I have a technique, sorta. Really quickly tap the oil instead of holding it down. That way the gas stream is always broken up

Poecilotheria metallica

Google that if you want to see!

maybe it's a nice way of dying tho?

I mean giving your all so the wasp female you raped in the womb can live? Sure, go with nice.

night grove
#

It is highly likely the final seconds of everyone's death is highly pleasurable

#

The brain releases a lot of hormones as it fails

noble plaza
#

Yeah doesn't the lack of oxygen in the brain generally cause pleasant emotions?

fleet tangle
#

Euphoria.

night grove
#

Yeah, that's why "choking out" is a fad that comes every decade or so

noble plaza
#

To a lesser extent, it's why choking (in bed) is a thing

fleet tangle
#

Probably what also causes the "white light" / "tunnel" phenomenon. Vision narrowing due to lack of oxygen.

night grove
#

The problem with it, is that the time difference between the euphoria and brain damage / death is measured on the order of something like 60 seconds or less

noble plaza
#

At least it's a happy concept though. The brain is happy by default, so when it's emergency shutting down it's reverting to a euphoric state

night grove
#

And the recipient of the euphoria can't exactly give a safe word / gesture because they are passed out / passing out.

I'm pretty sure I saw a video about these special hotel / obstacle courses for couples to hook up at

#

The check in process is anonymous.

#

So no one knows which couples go

deep copper
#

laura said it's useful to stay at when you want relaxed checkout times

noble plaza
#

That sounds like a cover story and a half

celest musk
#

so you get in as single, and leave when you found a partner?

#

that sounds like a one way trip tho 😄

i don't think it's like tinder, you probably already need to come with one

I guess? I saw one with a swing, and another with a play room full of stuffed animals

I think they just try to hit all the fetishes with them to allow any type of role play you could want with a partner

roleplay with ... swing?

night grove

Not that I particularly have looked though

#

There's cheap motels if you need a place to crash sleep while driving cross country

noble plaza
fleet tangle
#

...these are not reputable establishments...

night grove
#

I've never thought to ask if you can book them hourly

celest musk
#

they are roadside, and usually you have a trailer park close 😄

night grove
#

They are usually filthy dives

deep copper
night grove
noble plaza
#

Crash is pretty common slang I'd think?

#

Not 'Merican though

night grove
#

Yeah, but in context of driving could be misinterpreted

noble plaza
#

Ah fair, that makes sense

night grove
#

I pretty much always use that term when talking about sleep

#

Because, I dislike sleep and only do it when my body forces me to

#

XD

noble plaza
#

Yeah yikes, it's 4AM here

fleet tangle
#

This is when the brown recluses are gonna get ya

noble plaza
#

I've gotten a bit burnt out on the game, but haven't been able to force myself to have a full weekday off either

deep copper
#

sleep

noble plaza
#

UGH it's almost my gf's wakey time

deep copper
#

normal sleep*

#

then sleep?

noble plaza
#

Her waking routine is snoozing the alarm for half an hour, is fun

#

Every 5 minutes that stupid default iPhone alarm tone

night grove
#

The snooze button is a special kind of hell

deep copper
#

they say you should wake up 1 hr before the task so you don't wake up just for the task and have enough warm up time

noble plaza
#

She spends a while getting ready, having breakfast, patting the doggo, etc anyway. She just loves snoozing the alarm for ages for some reason

#

She could have done 10 Wordles with all those snooze minutes but noo

deep copper
#

you should sleep

noble plaza
#

Yeah I've taken melatonin, is time

deep copper
#

also applies for all the 🫂 !

synthesis league was actually really good in hindsight. They should have left the map building in core, but removed the expanding synthesis that would force you to rush the level.

is path of exile that 2.5 game?

proud jay

it's free diablo

gusty star
#

ah

#

some of my friends played it for a bit, dont know if they still do

#

but im biased, i was playing WoW recently/this year lol -_-

#

ye

#

the PvP in Shadowlands was pretty good ngl, and rogue (the class i main) were S tier

#

yeah 😦

#

not to mention multiple reports of a toxic/unsafe work culture at blizz lol

proud jay
#

WoW was fun, just get burned out of it easily

#

an not worth the money at that point

gusty star
#

ye

#

i buy a month at a time and then just sort of play it crazy but the burnout is real.

#

Newworld was aight too lol, I played that on release with some friends for like 2 ish months

#

Very player focused tho. and the PvP is wild af.

#

But since we played it on release, and the way the game mechanics work, you could be first-to-market for a particular class of items (in our case, tier 3/epic quality gems), corner that market and then even there were also individual markets for each town so you could also use arbitrage and make hella $$$$$$

I guess on the up side Activision wasnt like this meat processing company I saw an article about earlier this week

this employee went missing, they finally got around to testing the equipment a month later, turns out he'd fallen in

#

but no worries, just run everything for a month while he's "missing"

but then you think that Valve is gonna profit from Battle.nets demise

What’s some good methods of marketing your game, I put mine on itch and i’m gonna make a promotional youtube video and put it everywhere but idk what else i can do

still thicket
#

ask people if they'll share your game to other people

gusty star
#

leverage social media, but honestly these days its sorta hard as facebook and instagram have recently decided to say fk everything and promote content of their choice on your feed.

#

the only options are like Reddit, Twitter, Tik Tok and maybe another network I'm forgetting but those are the major ones anyway

topaz depot
#

create multiple yt vids even, found a discord community, and the fans would spread it to more and more people

#

Mcree no more

apparently steam is updating their graphical assets guidelines for store page products

#

rules in effect sept 1st

#

i imagine their trying to give the consumer a less biased view of products, or one less influenced by pressure sales tactics

pearl elk
#

so theyre going back to the old rules of no bullshots finally

regal pecan
#

So no "91% positive reviews" as seen on a game on the current Steam front page

#

Or is it okay if you make that into a localized banner?

pearl elk
#

9/10 dentists recommend this game

regal pecan
#

11/5 forensic analysts recommend this game

gusty star
#

and removing stuff thats like "now on for 99 percent off!"

#

basically their argument is that the steam store page already has a module for accolades and thats where you should promote that information

#

not on the main banners and all that

gusty star
#

tho they are still allowing you to promote new content but nothing else as part of an update, and you have to use a particular feature to do it, this artistic overlays thing and you need to include localization for this type of promotional scheme

Localization seems prudent. And screen reader friendly.

as i remember

there was a way

to choose what monitors printscreen can capture

#

i don't remember what was it's name

zinc matrix
#

shift print N

#

uhh almost

thin geyser
#

no

#

there was like

#

a setting

#

for the print screen function

zinc matrix
#

like a gui to allow you select which screen to print?

thin geyser
zinc matrix
#

hahaha

#

-no shortcuts

#

feels nice

#

appears when clicking on PrntScr

#

?

thin geyser
#

nope

#

you would change

#

that setting

#

so everytime

zinc matrix
#

that is a old method

thin geyser
#

you press print screen

#

it only captures

#

the monitor

#

you selected

#

once before

zinc matrix
#

like clustering various pentiums to make a 3 monitor setting

zinc matrix
#

#

i wonder how one could change their own ip inside the machine

#

like having 3 different ips

#

is that possible?

thin geyser
#

tbh idk

#

but i don't think such a thing is possible

What are you trying to do?

i could chat to myself on a server?

zinc matrix
thin geyser

#

You already can by just listening on different ports at once

thin geyser
noble plaza
#

You likely already have two IP addresses already - IPv4 and IPv6

thin geyser
#

hacker man

#

meanwhile me struggling to scale my wall mech

#

zinc matrix
#

i wish to understand what an ip is

#

on byte level at least

thin geyser
zinc matrix
#

but i am no server

noble plaza
#

It's an address for the data to go to

thin geyser
#

just like your address irl

noble plaza
#

Every packet is basically a fast as fuck snail mail that is headed somewhere

#

If it's hentai, ur PC

zinc matrix
#

hm

#

so at the end it is just electrons on and off on various putes

#

putes = computers

noble plaza
#

Yeah, in case of fiber cables it's just light flashes

#

Still electrons, but so much cooler to think about a strobey laser

zinc matrix
#

the upper level is always macro

#

is it?

noble plaza
#

EG if you were to ping Google, it may take something like 10-30 hops between different computers to actually reach it. That' all determined by your ISP, location, Google server proximity, etc etc

zinc matrix
#

how long each hop takes?

thin geyser
#

I love how basically all of our chat and everything yall see is just a bunch of electrons basically turning on and off constantly

zinc matrix
#

we should get an cave-human sending hearts icon

noble plaza
#

The current financial system is just billions of dollars flowing over some fiber cables

thin geyser
#

when actually electrons were used to make the money in first place

zinc matrix
#

how long a hop takesss

thin geyser
#

when ACTUALLY ELECTRONS WERE USED TO MAKE THE ELECTRONS

noble plaza
#

Anyway, you can have multiple (IPv4) IPs on your PC, depending on your hardware. It can cause issues, while not really providing any value most of the time

zinc matrix
#

i believe on that

thin geyser
#

same pc

#

we mean

#

same system

noble plaza
#

Like same network, different computers?

thin geyser
#

like

#

you can run 4 different systems with virtual machines and have basically 4 computers running on one pc

#

but

zinc matrix
#

@heavy palm i actually can get striked if i ask how long a hop takes on google servers on #cpp , right?

thin geyser
#

they should i think

#

but what we mean is all on the same system

noble plaza
#

Ah yeah, at that point it's basically a Docker container

thin geyser
zinc matrix
#

explain me with electrons words what a docker is

#

rule 0.

noble plaza
#

Fuck OK

zinc matrix
#

ships can not be mentioned

noble plaza
#

Docker's like a really lightweight VM that you can set up complicated internal electron flows in

zinc matrix
#

so they take care of the front-end

#

are they proprietary

#

?

noble plaza
#

On your PC's end though, you just exposed a certain port, not sure if popping it on a new (internal) IP is possible

zinc matrix
#

i mean, i can transfer my ip to google

noble plaza
#

Nah, you'll find lots of software coming with Docker releases. it's pretty convenient

zinc matrix
#

i watched a youtube video once about docker

noble plaza
#

Your external IP?

primal summit
#

alt-printscreen is the only active window, not all monitors

thin geyser
#

if all vms use the same ip then how would the pc know which vm gets the data

thin geyser
#

hmm right

#

forgot those existed

noble plaza
#

IPv4 is actually quite expensive now. Regardless, the internal ones don't really mean anything except for your local one

primal summit
#

but my preferred method is printscreen, paste in paint, move what I want to the upper left corner, and resize the image to the right area

noble plaza
#

Google reads your external IP, which is a different thing

thin geyser
#

in terms of what you mean expensive

zinc matrix
#

yeah why microsoft are not placing free software???

thin geyser
noble plaza
#

There's about 4 billion IPv4 addresses possible, so finding a free one can be hard

zinc matrix
#

put blender on games tab for children blow up

noble plaza
#

Your ISP will likely dynamically rotate your one depending on availability, dedicated ones are more expensive for them
