development

[lyric mountain]

just a thing, I'd name that function start instead of buttons, as you're starting a new game

and this will likely error, so make sure to remove it

you're already inside Game

and inside buttons

[north cairn]

well that class is just for toss
i'll create diff classes for diff steps in game

[wheat mesa]

The classic StackOverflowException

[lyric mountain]

nononono, make different functions if u must

[wheat mesa]

(Or whatever it’s called in node)

[lyric mountain]

but not different classes

[north cairn]

wouldn't that make it complex

[lyric mountain]

classes can have as many functions as u want

[wheat mesa]

Usually classes have more than one method

[north cairn]

u mean that one class througout the game with methods as steps

right?

[lyric mountain]

u can yeah

[north cairn]

what u guys prefer

[lyric mountain]

the code inside them will not be ran until you call the method

[north cairn]

one class diff methods or diff class

[north cairn]

yea

[wheat mesa]

One class different methods

[hushed robin]

btw guys

[wheat mesa]

More than one class is starting to defeat the purpose of using classes in this situation

[lyric mountain]

a class should be a representation of an entity

like, you have a game, so it's an entity

[north cairn]

and do i make seperate files for methods

[hushed robin]

can i separate my functions from my class but still run it on it

[lyric mountain]

the game can have many stages, but it's still the same game

[north cairn]

hmm

[north cairn]

yup

[lyric mountain]

you can, just import as always

[hushed robin]

wym

[wheat mesa]

You can pass an instance of your class to a method and modify your object that way

[north cairn]

can i use import export system here too?

[wheat mesa]

But that starts to defeat the purpose of OOP classes

[hushed robin]

but what if i have complex ones

one file will look cluttered

[wheat mesa]

I need more context here

[lyric mountain]

it's best to have a cluttered file than a cluttered project

[wheat mesa]

Some files will be large if your class is large and has a lot of functionality

[north cairn]

??

[wheat mesa]

It should only be responsible for one “thing” usually, that’s one of the pillars of OOP

[hushed robin]

https://github.com/battleless/kick-api/blob/main/client.js

here, you see the functions like getCategories? can i put it into a different file

[lyric mountain]

put them where they belong

if they're methods for your game, put in your game

[north cairn]

hm?

[wheat mesa]

Why would you? They’re 3 lines

[lyric mountain]

imagine Game is a bookcase

and every method is a book

[hushed robin]

yeah i know I'm just giving an example

if they were long

[lyric mountain]

if the book belongs to Game, put in game

[wheat mesa]

You cannot separate class definitions to multiple files

[lyric mountain]

like this

[hushed robin]

wtf

[wheat mesa]

You can extend a class, but that’s different

[lyric mountain]

and this is not the full file

[hushed robin]

😐

how many lines is that

[wheat mesa]

That’s just how it is

[north cairn]

bro i dont have supervision

[hushed robin]

fr

🤣

[wheat mesa]

It’s not a bad thing either, you just have to get used to it

[lyric mountain]

but I couldn't put that code outside of that file even if I wanted to

because they're meaningless outside of it

[hushed robin]

what is it?

[lyric mountain]

and will only be used on that specific file

[wheat mesa]

That’s why methods exist, so that you can keep classes organized

Even in long ones

[lyric mountain]

my card game

every method is an action, which gets called based on user input

[hushed robin]

that for a card game???

🫠

[lyric mountain]

so it's naturally long

[north cairn]

ok so
create diff files for diff methods by exporting and importing class
and then create a file for full game run all methods

[wheat mesa]

The logic for card games is pretty complex sometimes

[north cairn]

or create a big file having all methods and call it there only

[north cairn]

now i ee why rummy companies ads so much

[lyric mountain]

yeah, a card game

[north cairn]

kekw

[lyric mountain]

that code doesn't include the renderer

[north cairn]

?

[north cairn]

?

[lyric mountain]

renderer is somewhat smaller

[north cairn]

dem

[wheat mesa]

There is a main class somewhere within minecraft though, every program needs an entry point

[lyric mountain]

again, if those methods belong to that class, put in that class

[north cairn]

notch boi

[wheat mesa]

It still has a main class internally somewhere

[north cairn]

but u just said dont make more than class

[lyric mountain]

if not necessary, yes

if those methods only have a meaning for that game, you can just put inside game class

[wheat mesa]

The JVM needs a method signature of public static void main(String[]) somewhere in the bytecode

[hushed robin]

oh wait

is this a discord bot?

[north cairn]

i am asking all that in one file???

or sperate

[lyric mountain]

yes it is

[wheat mesa]

Which means there is a class of some sort within MC that has that signature

[hushed robin]

woah

thats cool

[north cairn]

wtf how is that a dc bot

i hought its app

[lyric mountain]

yes

[wheat mesa]

Just wait until you see his Helper.java file

[north cairn]

mess but fine,thanks for explaning so well
Good night cya
have a good day sir

[wheat mesa]

🧌

[north cairn]

music starts

[lyric mountain]

lmao that's long dead

[north cairn]

u darkless

u ruthless

💀

ok bye

[lyric mountain]

players use commands to manipulate the board during their turn

[hushed robin]

whats the short form of spanish

[lyric mountain]

like place a card, equip, use a spell, etc

[hushed robin]

like two characters

[lyric mountain]

u mean the locale id?

it's es

[hushed robin]

oh yeah thx

[lyric mountain]

for reference, there's a list for that

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes

[slender wagon]

so i have tried almost all file extensions that might support transparency but nothing has been successful

[lyric mountain]

for animation?

[slender wagon]

the closest i got was with gif which guess what had no transparency

yes i am using canvas

i tried apng webp

[lyric mountain]

where do u want to put the image?

like, where will it be shown?

[slender wagon]

the image has to be set the first then over it a transparent animation

i don't care about the extention

[lyric mountain]

I mean the final image

is it for a website?

[slender wagon]

nope

the final can be any extension as long as it has transparency

the user will get it via telegram where they can download it

it's a watermark bot

[lyric mountain]

why didn't apng work?

u didn't find a lib for it?

[slender wagon]

didn't find any package

yes

sorry english broki

the only one i found supported browser only

apng-js

or smthn

[lyric mountain]

https://github.com/TomasHubelbauer/node-apng

[slender wagon]

oh shit

[lyric mountain]

there's also https://github.com/photopea/UPNG.js

[slender wagon]

are these not npm's

[lyric mountain]

idk, I'm showing the first results I got from google

worth to search on npm to see if any pops

[slender wagon]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/upng-js

do you think it's possible to get it to work with canvas

[lyric mountain]

you'll be editing the frames individually

[slender wagon]

so i guess that's alot of processing power

[lyric mountain]

use canvas for making the frames and then pack it up with upng

[lyric mountain]

well, you can't edit an animation without separating the frames

even if there was a lib that "did" that, it'd internally separate the frames

[slender wagon]

alright

so basically i will need to seperate all the frames of a apng

the elephant one has like 20 or 30

https://apng.onevcat.com/assets/elephant.png

[lyric mountain]

separate, add overlay, put somewhere for later use

[slender wagon]

oh so i can cache ittt

[lyric mountain]

after u finish all frames, pack it up

[slender wagon]

since i will be using the same one

[lyric mountain]

yep

[slender wagon]

would a json work

[lyric mountain]

how would u store an image in a json?

b64?

[slender wagon]

[lyric mountain]

just put it in a const and do your stuff

after u finish it'll be cleared automatically as u left the scope

[slender wagon]

the thing is i don't wanna fetch the frames all the time when a user inserts a new image

anyway that's for later i will try to get it working first

Talking about that since telegram api's has a close timeout

[lyric mountain]

then yeah, you can store it for later usage

use a self-expiring map to store the image bytes (buffer)

[slender wagon]

alrightys

[solemn latch]

it should 👀

Seperate event 👀
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway-events#message-delete-bulk

Its a seperate event

😔 I just wrote so much code and I dont like it

Just going to delete it and restart. Wasted 6 hours today ^-^

Thanks

If there was a job to waste time I would be the best at it.

Especially if it was to look like I'm doing something useful

[hushed robin]

idk

JavaScript is a good language

[slender wagon]

regarding the apng project i kind of got it to work but all the frames it encodes seem very transparent

aka there is nothing on them

💀

the data looks fine

if it is the libs issue

i am gonna go fucking crazy

before the decoding

after

[lyric mountain]

wdym?

also, windows doesn't assign a default app for apng

that's why it shows the default thumbnail

it's just lua that's weird

[slender wagon]

Yeah when u open it its literally transparent

[lyric mountain]

weird, try seeing if u didn't miss anything

also, to test it try dragging to the browser

[wheat mesa]

Because lua is an awful language

Can’t change my mind

[hushed robin]

but Roblox uses it

[lyric mountain]

using something doesnt means it's good

also there are quite a few languages that work well as embedded languages and don't give too much access to the scripter

which is likely why they chose lua

[hushed robin]

well

Roblox has millions of concurrent players

so if Lua can do allat I think it’s good

[lyric mountain]

it has millions of conc players, but lua's not running millions of times

you forget the each lua script is ran in its own context

the game is not made in lua, only the scripts

[spark flint]

The largest discord bot uses Python, doesn’t mean it’s good

[lyric mountain]

in the same way that my bot is in java, but my cards are executed in groovy

doesn't mean I made my bot in groovy

[hushed robin]

So are you saying Python and Lua are both bad languages?

[lyric mountain]

they're good for their own niches

lua is good if you need an embedded lang an restrict access to the scripter

because you can setup your own sandbox and choose what the scripter can use

[hushed robin]

ok

guys

how do I make an npm package

[slender wagon]

transparent aka white in the browser cuz that's how it shows it's transparent. I am very confused if the fault is the encoding or the canvas. Here is the code btw

[lyric mountain]

what did this output?

[frosty gale]

lua users realising their language is rarely used as the main language of a project but rather an addition to it

[lyric mountain]

I mean, it wasn't created to be a main language anyway

[hushed robin]

⁉️

nah

idk

[lyric mountain]

yes it is hard to make one

[hushed robin]

idk

listen to KuuHaKu

he’s smarter than me

can someone help with my issue tho

[lyric mountain]

the issue with obfuscators is that simply renaming identifiers and removing every space and newline isn't enough

because reverting it will be really easy

a proper obfuscator will break functions in half, transform strings into codepoints, do shmucks with formulas and code flow, etc

[quartz kindle]

setup your package.json, make your main file export something, publish to npm, done

[lyric mountain]

in a way that it barely resembles the original code even if reverted

[hushed robin]

wym setup your package.json

[lyric mountain]

it is

[hushed robin]

ok

[quartz kindle]

give it a name, a description, and all the basic stuff

what do you need an obfuscator for?

[lyric mountain]

making your own obfuscator is almost as hard as making your own compiler

wdym exploiters?

ik what roblox is

[hushed robin]

kuuhaku is a roblox og

he knows a lot about it

[lyric mountain]

but wdym exploiters? like, can they even read the scripts?

replicated?

if running foreign scripts is your concern then obfuscators will do nothing

that sounds like a roblox flaw tbh

but well, so what would obfuscators help in this case?

[wheat mesa]

Roblox has the world’s shittiest anticheat

If a 12 year old can make a script to cheat in a game, then the anticheat is either nonexistent or completely useless

[lyric mountain]

so when does a replication happen?

[proven lantern]

can my bot require people to have a discord role before being able to reveal spoiler text?

[rustic nova]

Nope

[proven lantern]

dang

[rustic nova]

You could theoretically do a message with components with the Text "unspoiler" and depending on the role, respond with a ephemeral message

[lyric mountain]

unspoiler lmao

[frosty gale]

thats kinda cool actually

thanks for the inspiration

[rustic nova]

Could probably check if the message || contains spoilers like these || and have emojis replace these according to their length

Pressing that unspoiler button then does that

[slender wagon]

logs all the frames
Width : 720 Height: 692 and the length 34

Which seem fine

[lyric mountain]

see if anyone in google faced that issue before

[frosty gale]

i feel big header text on discord is so cursed

they need to keep the old way which is lower text with ability to make text bold or wiggly

were not making a html blog here

[solemn latch]

wait, is this not the blogging server?

[frosty gale]

is it a blogging server?

uwu

uwu

uwu

sorry i was tinkering

[slender wagon]

https://github.com/photopea/UPNG.js/issues/64 reading this, it seems like it's an issue with the lib it self

[lyric mountain]

not sure, but from what I understood ur trying to run a client script on the server

[lyric mountain]

it seems solved by the end of the issue

[slender wagon]

yes i see the encoding type

[lyric mountain]

just use a token

[neon leaf]

^

[lyric mountain]

no u dont

ah, ic

hm, u have no data about the sender?

see if u can get machine info through lua

like MAC address

or some other physical info that's not hardcoded

if all fails, create a site that returns your own IP

then make your script send a request to that site and hash the ip

then check (in your server) if the sender hash is in the expected list

[frosty gale]

i wonder if its possible to read the TPM on windows like the actual keys on it
no real reason just would be nice to know

[lyric mountain]

even if someone reads your code, they wont know ur ip

so they cant fake it

to be extra safe, use ipv6 instead of ipv4

since it's physically impossible to bruteforce it

[slender wagon]

i think i found the issue

[quartz kindle]

have you tried RWE?

http://rweverything.com/

[slender wagon]

so i saved all the canvas,

  const out = fs.createWriteStream(`canvas${i}.png`);
    const stream = canvas.createPNGStream();
    stream.pipe(out);
    out.on('finish', () => console.log(`Saved canvas ${i}.png`));

[proven lantern]

why isn't the elephant pink? and where are the wings? i'm so confused

[slender wagon]

all the images are the same loaded from canvas and it seems like all the frames from the apng are in one

not sure which function is causing this

[slender wagon]

to stressed to think about that

i can fix it later

[slender wagon]

oh lol

[lyric mountain]

did u remember to clear the canvas for each frame?

[slender wagon]

🤓

shit

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[proven lantern]

you'll want to watch this to learn more about cartoon elephants
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcZUPDMXzJ8

[frosty gale]

i have not

i tried getting chatgpt to tell me but it thought i was trying to hack someones private keys on their tpm so it didnt tell me

when i said it was my pc it gave me some powershell script which did not work

the aggressive looking chinese text is making me worry

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[slender wagon]

so i just set a cleaner for the canvas just to find out the apng is static now

[frosty gale]

thanks windows

i think its because i have core isolation turned on

[slender wagon]

https://tenor.com/view/head-bang-dr-cox-ugh-angry-gif-16823810

[frosty gale]

so it doesnt load any driver deemed as remotely dangerous

[quartz kindle]

rip

[frosty gale]

its also not happy i have a custom CA installed

i swear all of this is designed for average computer users

i have windows pro ffs

ima pro

wait its not even using my fucking tpm

i think its because i have secure boot turned off

which renders the tpm useless because anyone can install custom os and read the tpm

[quartz kindle]

xD

[frosty gale]

fuck

[quartz kindle]

huh

i always install windows with secure boot disabled, otherwise i cant even boot into the installer

[frosty gale]

i think it means you have to install windows with secure boot otherwise you wont be able to enable it

[quartz kindle]

and then turn it back on after installed

[frosty gale]

huh

maybe you can

i dont wanna break anything tho

[hushed robin]

why would you want your boot to be insecure

🤨

[frosty gale]

my bios wants me to mess with some "authorisation keys" or whatever

[frosty gale]

can load os on usb

linux too!

[hushed robin]

btw

can bots stream?

[solemn latch]

no

[frosty gale]

i get this error when i try to turn it on

[hushed robin]

aw

[frosty gale]

wtf is a platform key

[hushed robin]

I wanted to make a discord soap2day

[frosty gale]

and how do i enrol one

[hushed robin]

btw does anyone know a api to download movies

[hushed robin]

wym?

[frosty gale]

youre going away for a long time buddy

[hushed robin]

is that a prison room

[frosty gale]

it in fact is

[wheat mesa]

Lmao an api to download movies

[hushed robin]

what why

[wheat mesa]

That’s just piracy

[hushed robin]

no

[frosty gale]

lmao

[hushed robin]

I wanna download them

not watch

[frosty gale]

i love this server bro

[wheat mesa]

If you want to pirate something for watching it yourself that’s a slightly different conversation since it’s a legal grey area, but downloading movies for anything other than that is just straight up illegal

[hushed robin]

I just wanna download

[wheat mesa]

For what purpose

[hushed robin]

uh

[wheat mesa]

That’s what I thought

[hushed robin]

so I can see the movies length

[deft wolf]

I heard that with movies and games, you can keep a pirated copy for a few days on your hard drive

[wheat mesa]

Ok so you don’t need to download an entire fucking movie to get the length of it

[quartz kindle]

indian youtuber to the rescue
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KF2vdUnzLlg

[wheat mesa]

That’s just a bullshit reason

[frosty gale]

the big text with the red circle

i just hope it wont corrupt my os install again

[hushed robin]

yeah I do

[frosty gale]

it happened to me once it was not fun

[hushed robin]

how else will I know the length?

[wheat mesa]

By using an API for movie info???

[hushed robin]

no

I need accurate info

from first talking scene to final talking scene

no credits n such

[wheat mesa]

Plus if this was a supposed solution to your issue then you’re taking possibly the most incredibly inefficient route possible

[frosty gale]

fuck it ill try it anyways

[wheat mesa]

So I don’t believe you

[hushed robin]

bruh

[wheat mesa]

I know that you’re not the sharpest tool in the shed sometimes but this is still below you

Come on man

[hushed robin]

😐

is disturbing movies illegal

[wheat mesa]

Yes

Extremely

That’ll get you a nice little visit from the FBI at some point

(Assuming you meant distributing)

[hushed robin]

ok

[frosty gale]

WERE IN ACTION

thank you indian man

[hushed robin]

I was never planning on doing that I just want the accurate length

[quartz kindle]

xD

[wheat mesa]

Yeah that’s the biggest lie I’ve heard from you ngl

No sane individual could think that is the proper solution for that

[hushed robin]

ok

☹️

[slender wagon]

I gave up i am going to bed

[lyric mountain]

Technically, the movie's true length includes credits

Even more for marvel movies

[slender wagon]

Turns out saving the frames by it self is just fine but when i use them in the canvas it uses the data from the first frame for the rest of them. Which ends up a static image

[hushed robin]

for my next project i am going to make a discord api wrapper like discord.js

[slender wagon]

There are hundreds already

[lyric mountain]

You're very likely not using a clean frame for every frame

[slender wagon]

I am pretty sure i cleaned them

I deleted and redrawn in the loop

[hushed robin]

yeah but this is for practice

i think i am good enough to remake discord.js now

[slender wagon]

Ah

[wheat mesa]

(wait until he founds out how dogshit the dapi is to work with)

[frosty gale]

that does deserve a super reaction

[wheat mesa]

I want him to work on this

Maybe it’ll be the project that humbles him

[lyric mountain]

You underestimate thw sheer size of it

[frosty gale]

humbled 💀

[lyric mountain]

Also, if u miscode something u can end up getting the infamous 1-day ban from cloudflare

[wheat mesa]

Autocorrect got me

[hushed robin]

why ?

[slender wagon]

Spam

[frosty gale]

no i didnt mean you mispelt it

humble him is just funny lmao

[wheat mesa]

Ah

[hushed robin]

nah it’s just Client then .on then interaction

pretty easy

[wheat mesa]

Bruh

[lyric mountain]

Ratelimits

[wheat mesa]

That’s literally not how it works 💀

[hushed robin]

wym

[wheat mesa]

Where do you get Client from

It’s from discord.js

[lyric mountain]

If u mistime the limits too many times in a short frame u get a cloudflare ban

[hushed robin]

class

[wheat mesa]

Who do you think had to build that class from scratch? Discord.js did

[hushed robin]

class Client

[lyric mountain]

Also happens if u get too many 4xx errors

[hushed robin]

I can handle them

[wheat mesa]

Yeah well believe it or not just making a class and doing .on() isn’t a thing

[hushed robin]

I’m a professional with ratelimits

[frosty gale]

me if cloudflare bans me:

[hushed robin]

yeah it is

[wheat mesa]

It’s literally not

[lyric mountain]

Buddy u literally are the thing ratelimits were created for

[wheat mesa]

You have to define the code that emits those events

[hushed robin]

client.on("interactionCreate", interaction => {
});

[wheat mesa]

You also have to extend EventEmitter and know how that works

[wheat mesa]

Dude this doesn’t just exist out of nowhere

[hushed robin]

yeah ik

[wheat mesa]

It’s hilarious how blissfully unaware you are

[hushed robin]

I just have to make a function inside of the client class called on

It’s not too difficult

[wheat mesa]

I don’t even think you’d figure out how to make the proper code to connect to gateway via websockets 💀

[hushed robin]

I can figure out the logicists

[wheat mesa]

Nope. That’s wrong.

[lyric mountain]

You'll need to create everything from scratch

You won't have Client or interaction

Or any objects or classes whatsoever

[wheat mesa]

on is not a function that you are going to write in your class

[hushed robin]

I’ll make it

it’s easy

[wheat mesa]

That comes from EventEmitter

[lyric mountain]

Only thing you'll have is a json

Plain and raw json

[hushed robin]

I can do that

[wheat mesa]

Please do

[lyric mountain]

Do it then

[slender wagon]

At the end of the day its battleless he can do anything

[wheat mesa]

I’d love to see this crash and burn

[hushed robin]

ok

I will start on this project soon

[wheat mesa]

It brings me joy to see overconfidence get shattered

[hushed robin]

when I’m done my skittles

[lyric mountain]

Just remember, you only get a few shots at making your request bucket work

Once u hit the limit you can't continue for a day

[hushed robin]

I cban

[slender wagon]

The thing that kills "very good" drivers too

[hushed robin]

can

[lyric mountain]

You can't

[hushed robin]

yea

[lyric mountain]

Cloudflare will prevent u

[hushed robin]

so

I will switch my ip

[frosty gale]

dont listen to them be optimistic and try your best if you fail just try again and learn from the experience

[hushed robin]

ez

[frosty gale]

prove them wrong!

[hushed robin]

fr

they’re just haters

[lyric mountain]

Sure, if u pay for the extra ips

[wheat mesa]

(You don't know this guy very well do you)

[hushed robin]

me and chloe are best friends

wym

[slender wagon]

She prolly does lol

[hushed robin]

(this is not true)

[lyric mountain]

As much as I have coded in java I still take my hat off for MinnDev

Couldn't imagine myself making JDA

[wheat mesa]

There's a reason we talk like this to him, he's been a dick on multiple occasions to so many trying to help him

[slender wagon]

Boy i have been working on my watermarkbot for days and i keep getting fucking stuck on stupid issues

[hushed robin]

@wheat mesa
@lyric mountain

can you make discordjs yourself?

[lyric mountain]

No

[wheat mesa]

Probably not

[hushed robin]

why not?

[slender wagon]

Cuz it requires a community to work on it

[lyric mountain]

Both time and willpower

[hushed robin]

I think u guys can

[wheat mesa]

Because it's a massive project and I have no need to make it

[slender wagon]

Or a small team

[frosty gale]

i could not be asked to remake d.js

[hushed robin]

cap

[wheat mesa]

Plus I don't have a ton of experience with the dapi

[lyric mountain]

A lib the size of djs would take a single dev AT LEAST a year

[wheat mesa]

I've made code that connects to the gateway before, but even that was an absolute mess and hassle

[hushed robin]

bruh

[wheat mesa]

And that's the "easy" part

[hushed robin]

ok

what other project should I do then

idk what to do

[slender wagon]

Roblox

[hushed robin]

Roblox?

[slender wagon]

Go join a roblox community

[hushed robin]

I can’t remake roblox

[slender wagon]

Yes

[wheat mesa]

You should make your own discord library, since you're so confident that you can make it

Please

[lyric mountain]

Make a topdown space shooter

[hushed robin]

I will try that

[slender wagon]

Lol

[hushed robin]

no I’m not a game dev

idk anything about that

[lyric mountain]

What's the difference

[slender wagon]

Make it with vanilla js if u skilled

[wheat mesa]

Make a game engine 🧌

trust me it's a fun project

[lyric mountain]

We made one from ground up in java

No game libs or anything

[hushed robin]

did u guys forget I’m a beginner

[lyric mountain]

Actually no libs at all

[hushed robin]

🤨

[wheat mesa]

java my beloved

[hushed robin]

can I see

[slender wagon]

Dont u love such projects

[maiden gazelle]

Hi guys, how can i make my bot notice if someone has my bump system enabled so it would send the ad to the channel in every server that has it enabled

[lyric mountain]

Then make a snake game

Easier than space shooter

[wheat mesa]

https://github.com/Jwaffled/PlayBrew here's my engine (the actual game is in the test folder, but it's really buggy and shitty because we didn't have much time)

[lyric mountain]

Can be done with bare array and recursion knowledge

[slender wagon]

Since you are mentioning bump then you are in the wrong server i guess but you are gonna have to use an API

Top.gg has no bumps right?

[quartz kindle]

constantly says he knows everything
"guys im a beginner"

[lyric mountain]

It doesn't yeah

Topgg is one of the few with no bumps

[slender wagon]

Check the website which has the "bumps" for your server they might have the api docs

[hushed robin]

no

[slender wagon]

Yes

[hushed robin]

I don’t know everything

I only know some

[slender wagon]

You certainly do

[hushed robin]

I don’t know how to make a snake game

that is outside of skill

[slender wagon]

Skill issue?

[hushed robin]

yea

[slender wagon]

Can u fix my watermark bot

The code is somewhere up in a text file

[maiden gazelle]

It's for my own advertising system

Not the top.gg one

[slender wagon]

Oh so you are talking for your own feature

[hushed robin]

no

your better at coding then me I think

[slender wagon]

You are gonna need to setup a check for all the servers and take out the ones that don't have the bump system enabled

Afterwards make a interval to start sending the ad or whatever

[slender wagon]

Not sure

[hushed robin]

u r

[outer ledge]

Very

[frosty gale]

i still dont fully understand git

sometimes its just a black box

last time it for some reason decided to replace all my changes with an old commit on github that ive worked months on

[spark flint]

i still don't use git for all my projects lol

i just edit locally then unlink <file> and nano <file>

for some bigger projects i use git

[earnest phoenix]

I don't see anything wrong here, elaborate further, maybe

[lyric mountain]

cmon, that's a very basic project

and I don't mean anything fancy, just a text snake moving in the console eating text apples

[hushed robin]

and it’s always moving?

idk how to do that

[lyric mountain]

that's the intent of making a project isn't it?

to learn to do something

[hushed robin]

but I don’t know where to start

this is beyond my skill leve

[lyric mountain]

start by learning how to write stuff on the console

[hushed robin]

console.log 😐

[lyric mountain]

now learn how to clear the console

[solemn latch]

tbh, I wouldnt be 100% certain how to do it either in console.

in react though no problem 👀

I could figure out either though

[lyric mountain]

you just need to know how to write, clear and take input

clear on each frame, then "draw" the game as a grid of text

then just hook events on up, down, left an right key presses

or WASD whatsoever

[hushed robin]

Too complex

[earnest phoenix]

Did you do some kind of rebase? What commands did you run?

[lyric mountain]

it's not, can be done in less than 50 lines

[hushed robin]

cap

[lyric mountain]

write, clear and input are all one-liners

drawing a text grid is 5 lines (2 loops + write)

the remaining is for the snake logic

[hushed robin]

ok

I’m level c skill level

that is level S skill level

[frosty gale]

which level is higher

[hushed robin]

a-z

[frosty gale]

that doesnt help

[earnest phoenix]

That's the issue

[hushed robin]

it does

[earnest phoenix]

When the local repository is not synced up with upstream, it cannot cleanly push to it, so when merging changes it assumes the previous commits aren't pushed either and so that happens

Though this can easily be fixed with just a rebase

[queen needle]

Looking at your GitHub you've done a few things which logically are harder than making a console version of snake

[earnest phoenix]

Use an interactive rebase with git rebase -i <commit hash>^ (replace <commit hash> with the commit SHA of the commit where that happened), change pick to edit on the commit where it happened, remove those changes, and keep your current changes and continue with the rebase, and finally do a force push

[lyric mountain]

console is really easy to work with, but people fear it for some reason

[queen needle]

If you fear the console find something you don't fear, website, discord, anything, console is the easiest of those but

[mystic pine]

You are A Dev From Any Library @earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

Hm?

[toxic yew]

You are A Dev From Any Library @earnest phoenix

[pale vessel]

shut up

(kindly)

[hushed robin]

he is node.js

also read his about me 🧌

[hushed robin]

ok guys i'm starting my discord api library now

nvm i quit

[wheat mesa]

Comedy gold

[hushed robin]

tbf

it looks easier than you expect

[wheat mesa]

Almost as if all of us told you that

[hushed robin]

true

but idk what else to make

it looked like a good thing to make

ok guys

how do i get out of a if statement

?

i'm asking for help here

if you don't wanna help don't help

🧌

not simple

i googled no good answers

[wheat mesa]

Why would you get out of an if statement? In what world would that be necessary?

You’re essentially asking for goto-esque functionality

That’s a terrible thing to do

What

@hushed robin post the code you’re trying to create here

[hushed robin]

yeah give me a sec

[wheat mesa]

While true is a loop

That has nothing to do with this

[hushed robin]

i want those to exit my if to run code at bottom

[wheat mesa]

Then just use blocks like a normal human instead of returning?

[hushed robin]

wym

[wheat mesa]

if(thing) {
if(!somethingElse) {
// Code here
} else {
// Code here
}
}

[hushed robin]

but

then i will have a lot of code and paste code

inefficient

[wheat mesa]

No?

[hushed robin]

yah

[wheat mesa]

No?

[hushed robin]

i will have to do that for every return

[wheat mesa]

You’ll probably have to nest some if statements, sometimes that’s how it is

[hushed robin]

let me show u

[wheat mesa]

Java is basically javascript but with less flexibility

[hushed robin]

you see now?

[wheat mesa]

Jesus Christ

[hushed robin]

yes

[wheat mesa]

🤦‍♂️

[hushed robin]

thats what i was saying

look how fucked it is

[wheat mesa]

That’s not what I was saying

Keep in mind you could also just put all of that logic in a function instead of writing it out if you wanted to do it that way

Even though that’s still not the right way

[hushed robin]

no

they were seperate functions

but i'm now combining

[wheat mesa]

why…

[hushed robin]

bc

neater

[wheat mesa]

Why would you intentionally increase the length of a function unnecessarily

I’m not gonna even try

[hushed robin]

ok

in my fetch

i want to see if it's in cache first

and if is return

thats point of this

but i also wanna add force paramter

so u can force it to fetch everytime

and no check cache

[hushed robin]

nvm i solved it myself like a smart person

[radiant kraken]

java is easy

C tho

[wheat mesa]

C++ templates and concepts 🧌

[radiant kraken]

c++ is easy because the std library got your back

[wheat mesa]

Taken from cppreference.com: ```cpp
#include <string>
#include <cstddef>
#include <concepts>

// Declaration of the concept "Hashable", which is satisfied by any type 'T'
// such that for values 'a' of type 'T', the expression std::hash<T>{}(a)
// compiles and its result is convertible to std::size_t
template<typename T>
concept Hashable = requires(T a)
{
{ std::hash<T>{}(a) } -> std::convertible_tostd::size_t;
};

struct meow {};

// Constrained C++20 function template:
template<Hashable T>
void f(T) {}
//
// Alternative ways to apply the same constraint:
// template<typename T>
// requires Hashable<T>
// void f(T) {}
//
// template<typename T>
// void f(T) requires Hashable<T> {}
//
// void f(Hashable auto /parameterName/) {}

int main()
{
using std::operator""s;

f("abc"s);    // OK, std::string satisfies Hashable
// f(meow{}); // Error: meow does not satisfy Hashable

}

I'd say this is confusing

[radiant kraken]

this tho https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/fftools/ffmpeg_enc.c

[wheat mesa]

honestly C goat language for working with low level data like raw bytes

[radiant kraken]

frfr

but it's ecosystem is very barebones

[wheat mesa]

main thing c/c++ needs is a centralized package manager

getting libs to work is such a hassle

[radiant kraken]

vcpkg, conan, choco, etc

cmake, make, gmake

[wheat mesa]

I know but none of them are really "standardized" across ecosystems, cmake is probably the most universal build system

I want something like cargo but for C++, easy to use and isn't obscure

[radiant kraken]

frfr

@wheat mesa why is ur username waffle.cs

not waffle.rs

u don't do C# afaik

[wheat mesa]

comp sci

since it's my major

I wanted wafflecs but it was taken

[radiant kraken]

speaking of which

[wheat mesa]

damn counter strike players

[radiant kraken]

i think im gonna change my username to null.rs now

[radiant kraken]

do u play cs

[wheat mesa]

nah

[pale vessel]

interactions always have the user property

[north cairn]

dem

[tiny dome]

the submission requires a command, but my bot needs none?

[sharp geyser]

what

[deft wolf]

Most bots operate on commands, either text or slash

[quartz kindle]

nah mine works with mind control

:^)

[sharp geyser]

mine works by the blood, sweat, tears and glue holding it together

[quartz kindle]

sexy

[sharp geyser]

ikr

[tiny dome]

i guess i just make one for /info

commands are so old fashion 😄

I see some bots able to link their website dashboard url as 'social' tab, tho i seem to only be able to link main social media urls. Is it something changed recently?

[sharp geyser]

[slender wagon]

hi guys i am back to working with my watermark bot

[earnest phoenix]

[sharp geyser]

nice

[slender wagon]

https://pastebin.com/raw/jze71H97
am i cleaning the canvas properly:

 ctxCanvas.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

 ctxCanvas.drawImage(userImage, 0, 0);
 
 ctxCanvas.drawImage(frameCanvas, watermarkX, watermarkY);

[tiny dome]

top gg requires, and overall is a good practice, for the bot to not require admin perms.
My bot needs to be able to create threads in any channel. Is there a perm beside admin that allows that?

[slender wagon]

  const mainImageData = ctxCanvas.getImageData(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
    console.log(mainImageData)
    const mainRgbaFrame = new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data.buffer);

after logging the mainImageData it seems that the data for all the frames is the same

even tho when i individually saved the frames everything seemed to be fine

this is inside the loop function btw

[sharp geyser]

No idea

I don't do canvas

[pale vessel]

that would be the CREATE_PUBLIC_THREADS permission (since it's not admin, you need to check whether your bot is permissible to do that)

[slender wagon]

where is Kuhaaku when i need him the most

[tiny dome]

ya but if it cannot see the channel, it cannot create a thread in it, even tho it has the perm to create threads

[pale vessel]

I guess you'll also have to check for view channel permission

there's not really any way around it other than admin so

[civic scroll]

that should do, according to the docs

hang on

[frosty gale]

kuhaaku is cool but so pessimistic LOL

[civic scroll]

he's playing in realistic difficulty

can't blame em

and often pessimistic views lowers your expectations and allows more dopamine if you get it through

[frosty gale]

im his optimistic doppelganger

[civic scroll]

looking forward to that

[slender wagon]

what

[civic scroll]

<Canvas2DContext>.clearRect indeed does clear the canvas

[slender wagon]

alright so that's not the issue

[civic scroll]

what's your issue

brief me up

[slender wagon]

but for some reasone ImageData contains the same data for all them frames

the one inside the loop

idk what i am doing wrong

[civic scroll]

have you mutated them before trying to access?

the raw code is blinding me eyes

[tiny dome]

Iv just submitted my bot but it sent be back to step 2 and i cant push 'next'.
Is there a way to check if it has been submitted?

[frosty gale]

top.gg said no

idk ask #support

[tiny dome]

said no to what?

[frosty gale]

to your bot?

[tiny dome]

where did u see that

[frosty gale]

idk just an assumption

[tiny dome]

just submitted 30 seconds ago

im not asking if it has been accepted, but it has been submitted correctly. Got no notification on that

[frosty gale]

@quartz kindle actually now that i enabled secure boot i just made it harder to enable your tpm mod or whatever it is

[frosty gale]

idk you ask #support for stuff like this

[tiny dome]

k thx

[frosty gale]

tpm essentially becomes a self destruct armed device when secure boot is on and tpm is initialised

any attempt to disable secure boot or read tpm without correct password or try to access it physically causes it to erase itself and/or lock itself

pretty cool how its engineered to resist tampering and unauthorised access

inspiring in fact

[quartz kindle]

lmao

what does tpm even protect against? like in practice

[frosty gale]

so basically you have your drive decryption keys / passwords for whatever

problem becomes storing them without an unauthorised source accessing them

so you arm the tpm and enable secure boot so the computer can only run windows or whatever trusted thing you installed so only that code can access the tpm

its designed to protect again physical attacks like reading the chips pins and extracting the keys as well as a malicious party installing a custom os to read the tpm

[quartz kindle]

what if i dont encrypt my drives

lol

[frosty gale]

its even emp shielded so you cant try to read the signals the tpm gives off or try to manipulate it with one

[frosty gale]

then its probably not used and erasing it isnt an issue

i dont think it stores your windows login creds or browser passwords because that would be annoying

but it might

[quartz kindle]

such an over complicated feature that is completely useless for 99% of the users out there, wow

:^)

[frosty gale]

yeah really its more like a cool thing to have rather than an essential feature for secure computing

my company doesnt even use the TPM for our work laptops

we have to manually enter in a bitlocker unlock key

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[frosty gale]

its safer anyways

[quartz kindle]

as someone who worked with data recovery in the past, i absolutely hate drive encryption

[frosty gale]

plus actually using tpm is less secure because you can just let windows boot normally and automatically unlock itself and then read the contents of the RAM to determine the decryption key that way essentially bypassing the tpm

[frosty gale]

yeah but it helps with not having your data seen by the wrong people

that is if your decryption key is strong

tpm is a good source of random generated numbers tho

[frosty gale]

now that i think of it ive inspired myself to create a proof of concept

let a tpm protected and bitlocker encrypted drive unlock itself automatically then attach probes to ram to read the contents and extract the decryption key

the company lets you do projects like this and even funds them

[quartz kindle]

what kind of data you even need to hide from the wrong people? and who are the wrong people lmao, most of the time its just "company secrets" which is nothing more than intellectual property thats not really worth anything in the hands of others

[frosty gale]

for my company its mostly intellectual property yeah but also some vulnerabilities and info that could be used by the wrong people

the amount of big companies you see making stupid and simple security mistakes is unbelievable in their code

no wonder they pay a fortune to security companies

[quartz kindle]

regardless, the biggest attack vector by far is human error

which renders all of that crap useless once again :^)

[frosty gale]

yeah thats the biggest threat

negligence or someone being tricked

[quartz kindle]

whats your company btw? if i may ask

[frosty gale]

can tell in dms :o

[quartz kindle]

sure

[slender wagon]

yes

wait no

[civic scroll]

people working

[slender wagon]

it's probably the way i am passing the frames in the canvas

[quartz kindle]

want me to hire you again? i might have some stuff for you soon, when i get some cash

[civic scroll]

i don't wanna force you

just feel free to

i get fun from working with people

but i need to improve as well

[quartz kindle]

:)

[civic scroll]

cursed js working with cursed css

[civic scroll]

if you are paranoid you can just create / destroy contexts

but that has memory cost

[slender wagon]

hhhhm

[frosty gale]

fr

are you struggling to get a job or just dont want to?

[quartz kindle]

get me a nice job too

[civic scroll]

if i have a job now i would have a massive time crisis

[quartz kindle]

preferably one that you dont actually work and just get paid

:^)

[civic scroll]

i'm still in school

but like

[frosty gale]

my company kinda has that theyre extremely flexible

they dont care how many hours or days you work as long as you get the work done

[civic scroll]

since i get started late, i just sorta press myself to "get good faster"

[frosty gale]

going to office is also optional but i get distracted too easily so ill probably be going there often

[civic scroll]

task-based pay?

ooo

[frosty gale]

youre on a salary but theyre not really concerned in the hours you put in

[civic scroll]

but yeah i don't think i have any strong offers to companies atm

my skills are not good yet

[slender wagon]

man i just take massive projects from some shady guys they pay well

💀

[quartz kindle]

any position for a nodejs guy?

xD

[frosty gale]

lmao

you kinda have to be a master in everything for cyber sec

nodejs would help but you would also need to basically be happy to learn anything

[slender wagon]

just like me fr

[frosty gale]

i like learning about new technologies and expanding my knowledge so i dont mind

[quartz kindle]

i like learning too, just not react

or vue

or any frontend framework for that matter

[slender wagon]

i learned react

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[civic scroll]

i do ui/ux and frontend programming

[slender wagon]

then jumped right into nextjs

[frosty gale]

true

[quartz kindle]

except svelte, that the only one im interested in trying out

[frosty gale]

knowledge of front end would probably help but some of the work is not even related to code

knowledge of front end vulnerabilities would definitely help tho

[frosty gale]

yeah svelte looks interesting

havent used it much though

[civic scroll]

yes

[frosty gale]

i like how it compiles everything to a single javascript bundle instead of having a stupid framework powering everything behind the scenes

(react)

though react makes code a nightmare to reverse engineer

[civic scroll]

so like real dom manipulation

[frosty gale]

yeah

[civic scroll]

ah i see

i wish there are equivalent of framer-motion for other frameworks too

angular has its own animation library but it's a bit confusing to use

[slender wagon]

trying that rn fr fr

[frosty gale]

isnt canvas hardware accelerated?

[slender wagon]

idk is it

[frosty gale]

destroying context would prob destroy any benefit of hardware acceleration lol

point is having data already in the gpu memory ready to be used

[frosty gale]

maybe

dont know about 2d though

depends on browser ig

mine is apparently

chrome://gpu

[slender wagon]

yeah seems like it

now it wont display shit

[frosty gale]

probably not related though i mean in terms of performance

[slender wagon]

for (let i = 0; i < apng.frames.length; i++) {
    // Get the RGBA pixel data for the current frame
    const rgbaFrameData = UPNG.toRGBA8(apng)[i];

    // Create a new canvas for the current frame
    const frameCanvas = createCanvas(apng.width, apng.height);
    console.log(frameCanvas);
    const frameCtx = frameCanvas.getContext("2d");

    // Put the RGBA pixel data onto the frame canvas
    const imageData = frameCtx.createImageData(apng.width, apng.height);
    imageData.data.set(new Uint8ClampedArray(rgbaFrameData));
    frameCtx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0);

    // out.on('finish', () => console.log(`Saved frame ${i}.png`));
    console.log(`Processed frame ${i + 1}/${apng.frames.length}`);
  }

[frosty gale]

me when canvas no work

[slender wagon]

i have been trying to debug everything about this.
if u see the the frame being saved as a png at the end that i have commented that worked just fine.
But when i save each canvas which is also up there and not commented. It logs me the same frame for all the frames

as u can see the frame is fine the canvas is not

i'll go crazy no cap

[slender wagon]

same for edge

[quartz kindle]

where is ctxCanvas defned?

and canvas

[slender wagon]

// Creates a canvas with the same dimensions as the user's image
  const canvas = createCanvas(userImage.width, userImage.height);
  const ctxCanvas = canvas.getContext("2d");

  // Draws the user's image onto the canvas
  ctxCanvas.drawImage(userImage, 0, 0);

  // Calculates the position at which to draw the watermark image
  const watermarkX = (userImage.width - apng.width) / 2;
  const watermarkY = (userImage.height - apng.height) / 2;

  // Creates an array to hold the frames
  const frames = [];

  // Set the delay for each frame (in milliseconds)
  const frameDelay = apng.frames[0].delay;

  for (let i = 0; i < apng.frames.length; i++) {

[quartz kindle]

so you're drawing each frame on the same canvas?

and you want to save each frame as an image?

[slender wagon]

the frame saving is fine, the canvas saving is the one that has the issue. I am saving them just to debug

the end result will be send to the user

[quartz kindle]

what should the end result be?

[slender wagon]

the image of the user with the apng over it. sent as a .apng

aka an animated watermark

[quartz kindle]

and how is the .apng built?

[slender wagon]

 // Encode the APNG image
  console.log(
    "HELLOOO",
    frames,
    +" " + "WIDTH" + " " + canvas.width,
    canvas.height,
    apng.frames.length
  );
  const apngBuffer = UPNG.encode(
    frames,
    canvas.width,
    canvas.height,
    0,
    new Array(apng.frames.length).fill(frameDelay)
  );

  console.log(`Encoded APNG image: ${apngBuffer.byteLength} bytes`);
  try {
    await ctx.replyWithDocument({
      source: Buffer.from(apngBuffer),
      filename: "watermarked.apng",
    });
    console.log("Sent APNG document");
    //Saving it locally for testing purposes
    // console.log("apngBuffer before:", apngBuffer);
    fs.writeFileSync("watermarked.apng", Buffer.from(apngBuffer));
    console.log("Saved watermarked.apng");
    // console.log("apngBuffer after:", apngBuffer);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(`Error sending APNG document: ${err.message}`);
  }
});

this is after the loop function

don't mind my debuging

[quartz kindle]

what type of object is mainImageData.data.buffer?

[slender wagon]

it's an arraybuffer

ArrayBuffer {
[Uint8Contents]: <22 26 25 ff 24 28 27 ff 27 2d 2d ff 23 2c 2b ff 1b 25 24 ff 17 26 21 ff 17 28 20 ff 11 25 19 ff 0c 23 13 ff 19 30 1c ff 1a 31 1d ff 18 30 1a ff 1a 2f 1e ff 21 36 25 ff 37 4b 3f ff 48 5d 4a ff 6a 7e 62 ff 73 8f 66 ff 67 8d 5a ff 53 7c 44 ff 4c 6a 34 ff 3e 54 26 ff 2f 35 19 ff 23 2a 1a ff 1f 2c 23 ff ... 1030524 more bytes>,
byteLength: 1030624
}

[quartz kindle]

a typedArray initialized with an ArrayBuffer is not a copy, it shares the same buffer

[slender wagon]

and the thing is they all have the same data

[quartz kindle]

  const mainImageData = ctxCanvas.getImageData(
      0,
      0,
      canvas.width,
      canvas.height
    );
    // console.log(mainImageData);
    const mainRgbaFrame = new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data.buffer);
    frames.push(mainRgbaFrame);
``` this part here

im not sure what getImageData returns

but if it returns a reference to the canvas arraybuffer, then creating an Uint8array out of that will keep that reference

so the next time the canvas is updated, all bytes in those references will be affected

try this

new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data.buffer.slice())

that will force copy the arraybuffer

[slender wagon]

was just trying that lol

which got me:
Expected 1-2 arguments, but got 0.ts(2554)
lib.es5.d.ts(1683, 11): An argument for 'begin' was not provided.
(method) slice(begin: number, end?: number): ArrayBuffer
Returns a section of an ArrayBuffer.

so i got rid of the .buffer.

    const mainRgbaFrame = new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data.slice())

still having the issues tho

[quartz kindle]

what is the type of data?

[slender wagon]

mainImageData?

[quartz kindle]

.data

[midnight brook]

is anyone having issues with the npm registry?

[quartz kindle]

what kind of issues?

[midnight brook]

keep getting this, even tho it curls perfectly fine

nd it works in my browser

[quartz kindle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[midnight brook]

hmm

time to reinstall

[quartz kindle]

btw thats just ts being dumb, you can fix that by doing .slice(0)

[slender wagon]

can't capture it cuz it spams it lol but i guess an array:
5,8,60,180,255,8,60,180,255,8,60,180,255,8,60,180,255,7,59,179,255,7,59,179,255,7,59,179,255,8,60,180,255,8,60,180,255,8,60,180,255,7,59,179,255,7,59,179,255,8,60,180,255,8,60,182,255,8,60,182,255,8,60,182,255,7,59,181,255,6,58,180,255,6,58,180,255,7,58,183,255,7,58,183,255,6,57,182,255,6,57,182,255,7,59,181,255,7,59,181,255,7,59,181,255,7,59,181,255,6,58,180,255,6,58,180,255,6,58,18

[quartz kindle]

weird

if its a normal array and not a typed array, then uint8array should copy it

[slender wagon]

it's a Uint8ClampedArray

logged it with console.log(mainImageData.data.constructor);

[quartz kindle]

then new Uint8Array(mainImageData.data) should work

[slender wagon]

yeah still tho

here is the entire code to give u more context

[quartz kindle]

if you are testing based on the canvas frames that are saved by the pngstream then thats not accurate, because the streams are async

[slender wagon]

oh

so all the canvas frames being the same is ok?

[quartz kindle]

yes

[slender wagon]

the end result is fully transparent tho

[quartz kindle]

if you wanna test the frames correctly, you need to use canvas.toBuffer

and save with fs.writeFile

[slender wagon]

doing that rn

[quartz kindle]

also, i dont get this part

   const imageData = frameCtx.createImageData(apng.width, apng.height);
    imageData.data.set(
      new Uint8ClampedArray(new Uint8Array(rgbaFrameData).slice().buffer)
    );
    frameCtx.putImageData(imageData, 0, 0);

createImageData, set the data on it, then write the data on it back onto itself?

unless that doesnt do what i think it does

[slender wagon]

yeah the frames are totally fine

[quartz kindle]

but the apng still isnt?

[slender wagon]

nope

it's transparent

here i'll give u one

[quartz kindle]

try using canvas.toBuffer() for the apng frames, instead of getImageData
