There isn't even a code inside

The code in the title doesn't work

#

perhaps some issues atm, theyre small and opensource so yea

nope it won't work

I'm looking for a mobile one

#

That doesn't run on mobile

lost fossil
#

bitwarden has a mobile app

#

but why do u not want to use google or authy

exotic patrol
#

I didn't say I didn't want to use them I just asked which one is the best

wispy mesa
#

neither of them are that good lol

exotic patrol
#

I don't use authy because it doesn't support my phone number country code

lost fossil
exotic patrol
#

Google authenticator won't be too reliable because I can't really back it up

#

I haven't tried Microsoft

lost fossil
#

they just generate a bunch of codes based on current time

#

like, how good or bad can an app for that be

#

and what kind of backup are you looking for

exotic patrol
#

Either a local file or cloud

#

phone number is way worse since someone can just rip the Sim card out in 3 seconds

#

I don't like it

wispy mesa
#

yup

#

Google authenticator

lost fossil
#

lets you use the app without an acc

wispy mesa
#

yea only issue is loose the device and it may suck. but i guess you can backup the sha codes

lost fossil
#

says "codes will be deleted from your account google and from all other devices where you used it (the acc idk)"

exotic patrol
#

But say you use the app without an acc and somehow lose it what then

exotic patrol
#

What about Microsoft authenticator

wispy mesa
#

same as google probably

lost fossil
#

just buy an old phone from ebay/olx

#

use that for backup

wispy mesa
#

you can get a hardware key for 2fa is you are really unsure, it would work on any device with its app downloadable

lost fossil
#

don't need to connect it to the internet or anything

exotic patrol
#

I have my old phone

wispy mesa
#

and just keep the key in a secure location

exotic patrol
#

You remember the one

wispy mesa
#

the slow wifi one?

exotic patrol
#

Why are all of those authenticators forcing me to use my phone as a passkey

exotic patrol
wispy mesa
#

ah

exotic patrol
#

my old one was a disaster

wispy mesa
#

this can do 2fa and all the extra security hardware key stuff

#

its a one time purchase

#

your phone will need nfc for it

#

and PC app works with it in USB

lost fossil
#

not an option for some people

#

Yes use the google one then

exotic patrol
#

I don't like Google I've used it before and out of nowhere it removed my codes because the permissions were removed since I haven't used in 3 months

lost fossil
#

use anything

exotic patrol
#

I had the backup file but that's so dumb

lost fossil
#

and export to your old phone

#

that's it

exotic patrol
#

I'm thinking Microsoft is the go to here

#

so guys i was trying to make an ahk script after cs2 did the diabolical update but idk why but this script is not working

#

this small script is mass spaming

#

do i need to give the Ctrl also in "{}" ?

#

actually let me try that

snow rover
#

ahk v1? PeepoWeird

scarlet bobcat
#

ok its working but its still pressing both Ctrl

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

move to v2

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

that should be correct as is

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

that's v1

#

in v2 that would only send lcontrol and you would get a syntax error

scarlet bobcat
#

do i need to edit the script now?

snow rover
#

yes

#

hotkeys need to be enclosed in brackets when you have multiple lines

scarlet bobcat
#

C::
Send {LCtrl}
Sleep 2
Send {space}

#

so

snow rover
#

c::{
Send "{LCtrl}"
Sleep 2
Send "{space}"
}

scarlet bobcat
#

oh ok

snow rover
#

also would recommend a few other changes

scarlet bobcat
#

i have some other scripts like for jumpthrow and bhop
now i need to edit them both

snow rover
#

just paste them here

scarlet bobcat
#

*^:: Suspend, Toggle
*~$Space::
Sleep 100
Loop
{
GetKeyState, SpaceState, Space, P
If SpaceState = U
break
Sleep 1
Send, {Blind}{Space}
}
Return

#

;Fast jumpthrow
v::
Send {Space}
sleep, 10
Click, Lbutton
Sleep, 10
return

snow rover
#

that loop is weird

#

why not use while

scarlet bobcat
scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

wait let me think

#

oh yeah quotes

#

now it's proper v2

scarlet bobcat
#

what do i edit?

snow rover
#

c::{ Send "{LCtrl}" Sleep 2 Send "{space}" }

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

hold control until when/what?

scarlet bobcat
#

so like space+ctrl and only releasing space

scarlet bobcat
#

in this case its C

#

but in the old csgo script i think we do release both

#

idk i cant really understand

#

v::{
Send "{Space}"
sleep 10
Click "{Lbutton}"
Sleep 10
}

#

i edited the jump throw

#

is this correct?

snow rover
#

the lbutton is unnecessary

#

just click will send the left button

scarlet bobcat
#

okay

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

c::{ Send "{LCtrl down}" Sleep 2 Send "{Space}" Sleep 2 KeyWait "c" Send "{LCtrl up}" }

#

this should work i think

#

sleeping in increments of 2 doesn't really work though because the system timekeeping isn't that precise

scarlet bobcat
#

is this correct?

snow rover
#

no

scarlet bobcat
# snow rover no

*^::Suspend(-1)
*~$Space::{
Sleep(100)
Loop
{
SpaceState := GetKeyState("Space", "P") ? "D" : "U"
if (SpaceState = "U")
break
Sleep(1)
Send("{Blind}{Space}")
}
}

#

then?

#

its working though

#

idk how

snow rover
#

is this just quick converted

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

i still don't understand the usage of the loop

scarlet bobcat
#

after it

#

gave error

snow rover
#

if you just want to spam a key when held down, using while is much simple

scarlet bobcat
#

been a long time

#

more than 5 years

snow rover
#

ie space::{ while GetKeyState("space","P"){ Sleep 1 Send "{Space}" } }

scarlet bobcat
#

so to combine all of the codes do i just paste them in one ahk config?

snow rover
#

sure but you have to be mindful of how things like suspend work

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

then you just add it before all of the hotkeys

#

oh and you might want to make the suspension hotkey itself exempt from being suspended

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

#SuspendExempt key::Suspend #SuspendExempt False

scarlet bobcat
#

i change "key" to the key i want?

snow rover
#

yes

scarlet bobcat
#

thanks a lot bro

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

maybe

scarlet bobcat
#

let me try

snow rover
#

for hotkeys don't use quotes

scarlet bobcat
#

no / does not work

snow rover
#

this works

#

so yes / should work

scarlet bobcat
#

its correct yes?

snow rover
#

yes that should work

scarlet bobcat
#

ok so there is a problem

#

its not working like that

#

if i press it

#

its suspending whole bind

#

so if i press it then i cant use space

#

or the hotkeys

snow rover
#

the point of suspending is not being able to use the hotkeys

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

yes

scarlet bobcat
#

i want this kind of suspend

snow rover
#

that is exactly the same thing as the suspend in the script does

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

that's weirdge

#

can you post the entire script

#

muted lol

ionic lodge
#

!unmute @scarlet bobcat

craggy thicketBOT
#

zepcheck Unmuted 4fb (Case #287732)

#

probably worth dming it lol

snow rover

muted again lol

bro

#

!unmute @scarlet bobcat

craggy thicketBOT
#

zepcheck Unmuted 4fb (Case #287734)

ionic lodge
#

@scarlet bobcat just dm them instead

scarlet bobcat
scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

that's weird

#

do all of them not work or only space

scarlet bobcat
scarlet bobcat
#

even when i deleted the whole suspend command

#

space key isnot working at all

snow rover
#

oh you're correct

#

it does in fact, not work at all

scarlet bobcat
#

i changed the keybind to J

#

and still nothing

snow rover
#

did you save and reload the script after changing it

scarlet bobcat
#

forget about the space
the one that i updated is working so its fine
also i think its created like that cause cs has a jump time so it doesnot need to continuous press it or they might get ban or something
i just want to make the suspend work

#

sent you the new code

#

check if the suspend works for you

snow rover
#

yeah it works absolutely fine for me

#

does this work

#

pressing a should send a few a

#

and f1 should suspend or unsuspend the script

scarlet bobcat
#

let me check

#

yes

#

it works

snow rover
#

suspend works too?

scarlet bobcat
#

should i copy this one?

#

f1 is suspending

snow rover
#

yeah so i have no idea why j doesn't work for you

#

change f1 to j and check again

scarlet bobcat
#

ok

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

dunno why your script doesn't then

#

this also works with space

scarlet bobcat
#

ok i think i found out something

#

i replaced the code

#

with the one u send

#

even though its the same

#

now its working

#

šŸ’€

#

HOW

snow rover
#

did you try space test

#

i just made space blind and it works for me

#

dunno if it works for cs but

scarlet bobcat
#

let me try wait a sec

scarlet bobcat
snow rover
#

yeah i know

scarlet bobcat
#

if i run ur one solo then its working

#

if i put it in that cfg in its not

scarlet bobcat
#

its working

#

but not ingame

#

it doesnot work in cs

snow rover
#

well i can't help with that because i don't know anything about cs

scarlet bobcat
#

well the other one is working so its fine

snow rover
#

you might have to play around with delays or different sendmodes

scarlet bobcat
#

thanks a lot

#

now let me join offiial server and check if it auto kicks me from server or not

#

they be kicking for using jump throw and not banning people for cheating

snow rover
#

but isn't using scripts cheating

If you need C for engineering you're only going to calculate stuff anyway

Maybe some light sorting

if its game based, download unity community and create some simple movement script

heaps of tutorials out there for these 3 things

rapid lake
rapid lake

They teach you basics but don’t apply them in an example

Yea they can be a bit useless

if you think you can understand the syntax of C# (read some code), and read errors, just go try make something instead

rapid lake

Should I just read on W3

wispy mesa

yes

#

Alright

Do you know what the C# will be used for?

if you have a RPIO or similar have some fun and create a GPIO program

I apparently have the dumbest fuckin phone in existence

#

I can't transfer files and photos out of my main hard drive to my extra micro sd... because the main hard drive is too full...

#

In no world does that make any fucking sense

#

My hard drive is "so full" that I cannot move stuff out of the hard drive to a different hard drive to clear it to make it less full

#

Dumbest fucking shit I've seen at least in the last 3 or 4 months

#

The thing is though it isn't even full full

#

It's 62gb out of 64gb... I've moved large files just fine when I had a higher storage amount

#

The only solution for this bug I could think of may be to plug this into my computer, and dump every transferable thing into my computer to clear enough storage for me to move files again.

#

In what world does a full hard drive not allow you to declutter the hard drive

i missed my sleeved cables my old psu had them but it blew up so i got regular cables instead Sadge

lost fossil
#

had to do that bc no crimper and no connectors and also no 100m roll of wire to make all new cables

fervent granite
#

nah I wanted to tho corsair's 12v cable is differen't from be quiet's

lost fossil
#

oh 12v

#

in what way is it different exactly?

#

i know that corsair has that 2x8 to 12 cable

#

which makes the most sense since it's 6 12v wires in 2x8 and also 6 12v wires in the 12 pin

fervent granite
#

yeah corsair splits into 2 whereas be quiet's cable is just one big one

lost fossil
#

so the corsair one is an adapter

#

i heard from some people that it's actually better that way instead of 12 pin on both ends

#

people like buildzoid i think

fervent granite
#

the new one is actually better for my case since the cable doesn't press against the glass as much

#

be quiet's was really thick and it doesn't bend as well

By performance and price

Its not an option thats the thing

I looked at gamers nexus benchmarks

Seems like with the correct drivers the 7950X3D is like 1-2% faster most of the time

But seems like a waste of money

I think motherboard will be more of a concern

And the 7900X3D is barely worse than the 7800X3D for gaming

you guys maybe know more than me, how can i make sure a HSV to RGB Converter actually works?

nova steppe
#

Well, just check and see if the hex is the same. Just try it?

frail lark
#

I'm using Decimal Values

#

0 to 360 H, 0 to 100 SV

Converting into 255 R, G and B

Because i wanted to have a very accurate converter that can give me even Decimal RGB Values

#

Like 173,92794928 Red value, for example (that was a random number though)

nova steppe
#

I've had to use 3 different systems for colours. RGB, HSV, and HSL, and since nothing has HSL, I just had to get as close as possible

frail lark
#

Btw, do you mind if i ask you to test my Converter?, just in case you can see things that i may not, or if there's a mistake or something

#

Also, if you can, help me make the formulas shorter or more efficient, or both

oh, I've just been using sliders within games. The two games that used HSV and HSL were Euro/American Truck Simulator and F1 2020/2022

what's the most you all would pay for used, working WH-1000XM4s? I'm about to buy brokens to fix

upbeat spade
#

i wouldn't pepeLaughYou apparently they sound quite bad

#

maybe like a hundred usd, although i've seen even lower than that for functioning examples

#

the risk with buying wireless audio equipment is of course the basic audio equipment problems of possibly having fried drivers, but on top of that wireless stuff also brings with it electrical and connectivity issues, issues with batteries, etc. that imo are far more work than they're worth

#

but if you're confident in your ability to fix all that, well there are some good examples out there because some people just buy these for the ANC on their flights/transit and never use them otherwise, you could probably get a huge deal on a basically-new product

I'd be down to repair something if it saves $40. Tight budget. But I saw a working one sell for $75 within the past 6 months. I'd love that outlier

#

What's wrong with the sound? Normal 3 vs 4 vs 5 arguments?

upbeat spade

muddy

it's just bass

#

probably doesn't bother you if you only use it for the ANC and listen to it to sit on the bus or train for an hour, but i don't think i would use one for any purpose beyond that

brave field

I've never been in the same hemisphere as audiophile approved headphones so I don't mind. For reference, I was using the thicker $8 predecessor to this model for years before they broke

didn't say p47 on it though, entirely unbranded

You can EQ it all and be somewhat okay though, right?

I heard a big complaint for the 4s was that 3s were bassier

I wonder why
Are they stupid?
AMD are legit brain dead

#

The 7900 series is the most sold AMD cards ever

brave field
#

maybe they want to reverse their rapidly shrinking marketshare first

latent drum
#

Byyyyy not making one of the best selling cards anymore?

#

The 7900 series is on bar if not better than the 6700 series

#

The numbers dont add

brave field
#

Even if the 7900 sold well, the largest consumer base will always be the people looking to get off their 1050 to 1660ti cards, and AMD's budget cards have been abysmal. Its possible they only sell poorly compared to their flagships because they're too awful to be competitive

latent drum
#

God forbid having the ability to make good cards at different price points anymore

brave field
#

Intel will save us, I hope

#

I really, really hope

#

There's nothing left if they can't

latent drum
#

AMD have too many cards

#

They arent nvidia and they need to stop acting like nvidia

#

Like making 999 versions of the 700 series or whatever

#

If they want to take some market share back they need to cut down on market size strategically

#

One Low end card
2 Mid range
2 high end

#

Thats the way old nvidia did it
And its the way they won

brave field
#

Off to upgrade my 11 year old 280X to an RX 6400 for >$150
I think they could've had something with the 6650XT/7600 performance tier if they undercut Nvidia this hard from the start. And also got them in more than 2-3 lines of prebuilts. And had software that was as marketable as Nvidia's.

latent drum
#

Its also very clear they price their cards according to nvidia

#

Which is not how you win

#

They need to get a grasp of the world

#

Their software sucks

#

Thry never focus on anything other than gaming

#

And they never ever innovate

#

AMD trying to innovate is like Patrick star thinking

They are following nvidia step by step

You will never beat the competition if you follow behindthem

Yo bros, I wanna ask something. What do you look for when buying a windows laptop? Like, what’s the minimum requirement to get the best experience with it?

fervent granite
#

It’s really subjective but I focus on the display, overall build, specs and obviously the price

upbeat spade
#

like all tech

#

what are you doing with it

#

if you're living out of it or have a home setup, if you need it for specific tasks(and what are those specific tasks)

#

for example i also kind of need a laptop for class right now, but consider the following:
-i have a pc with a 3070, i'm not living out of the laptop
-i don't intend on doing anything on the laptop such as gaming, streaming, or rendering that necessitates a gpu
-it's something i'll pretty much bring to class and back, and at most write on or open spreadsheets on
i could get away with pretty much anything, but if you need or want something i don't need or want, your minimum requirement for the bext experience changes heavily from mine
