ayyy

[earnest phoenix]

👀

[sharp geyser]

Actually

just noticed something

It will always be 1 socket no matter if they supply otherwise cause of this dumb error TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'sockets')

I don't see why options isn't properly being attached

import { EventEmitter } from 'events';
import { SocketManager } from './';
import { IClientEvents, IClientOptions } from '../';
import { GatewayIntentBits } from 'discord-api-types/v10';

export declare interface Client {
    on<K extends keyof IClientEvents>(event: K, listener: (...args: IClientEvents[K]) => void): this;
    once<K extends keyof IClientEvents>(event: K, listener: (...args: IClientEvents[K]) => void): this;
    emit<K extends keyof IClientEvents>(event: K, ...args: IClientEvents[K]): boolean;
    off<K extends keyof IClientEvents>(event: K, listener: (...args: IClientEvents[K]) => void): this;
    options: IClientOptions;
    socketManager: SocketManager;
    token: string;
}

export class Client extends EventEmitter {
    public socketManager: SocketManager;
    public token: string;
    public options: IClientOptions;
    constructor(token: string, options: IClientOptions) {
        super();

        this.token = token;

        this.socketManager = new SocketManager(this);

        this.options = options;
    }

    public async login() {
        await this.socketManager.connect();
    }
}

Anything you guys can see that I seem to be missing cause this looks fine, so I don't think this is the root cause

    constructor(client: Client) {
        super();

        this.client = client;

        this.sockets = this.client.options.sockets ?? 1;
    }

this is whats in SocketManager where the error is occuring

[earnest phoenix]

Can you show exactly where this error occurs?

Oh

[sharp geyser]

funny enough in Socket which requires SocketManager to use the client values it works fine

only SocketManager gives issues

[earnest phoenix]

You're assigning the options after passing it to the SocketManager

[sharp geyser]

yea?

Whats wrong with that

[earnest phoenix]

I don't think you understood, you're trying to access the options property in the constructor of the SocketManager class, but it doesn't have a value yet, so you'd have to assign the options property and then pass it to the constructor

[sharp geyser]

I see

I can likely move it to my #createSockets method

    #createSockets() {
        this.sockets = this.client.options.sockets ?? 1;

        for (let id = 0; id < this.sockets; id++) this.socketStore.set(id, new Socket(id, this));
    }

Would this be fine?

[earnest phoenix]

Why not just do this in the Client constructor?

this.options = options;

this.socketmanager = new SocketManager(this);

[sharp geyser]

OH

thats what you mean

Actually that makes sense

[earnest phoenix]

What did you think I meant?

[sharp geyser]

idk why it took you to say that to get it

[sharp geyser]

Honestly no fucking clue

I just brain farted there

Makes sense now that you pointed it out that SocketManager was trying to use it before it was assigned which I thought you meant in the SocketManager class itself not in client

[earnest phoenix]

Heh it happens

[sharp geyser]

Oh shoot

I just realized something else I made a goof of

😩

using a normal for loop to loop through the shards to connect wont work

for (const [id, socket] of this.socketStore) {
            const shard_bucket = id % session_start_limit.max_concurrency;
            const previous = bucket[shard_bucket];
            const current = Date.now();
            if (current - previous < 5000) {
                setTimeout(() => {
                    this.connect();
                }, 5000);
            } else {
                bucket[shard_bucket] = current;
                await socket.connect();
            }
        }

Unless im mistaken, this will loop through all the shards and connect the first one, but once it reaches the second shard in the loop it wont work cause 5s hasn't passed.

Actually wait no, it should work cause I call the this.connect method again

so its recursive and will keep calling until all shards are connected but because of what I am doing this is bad

each time the bucket variable is overwritten so any previous shards recorded as being connected will be gone, I need to make it a class variable

or no I can't 😩

[lyric mountain]

use promise chaining instead of timeouts

[sharp geyser]

hm?

[lyric mountain]

this.connect()
  .then(...)

there's a lib called promise-cascade or smth

[soft mirage]

Hello guys this is my brother bilo

[lyric mountain]

ok, now off to #memes-and-media

[sharp geyser]

How would this make it connect if 5s has not passed?

[lyric mountain]

well, it wont, it'll just ensure it doesn't try to connect the next shard before the first finishes

isn't this what u want?

[earnest phoenix]

Are you trying to wait 5 seconds after the previous shard has connected? I don't exactly know what you're trying to do here

[sharp geyser]

When sharding discord only allows a certain amount of shards to connect concurrently, so the point of this is to follow that and only connect x shards every 5s

so if 5s hasn't passed when those shards connected than it should continue to check if 5s has passed until it finally has before connecting the next shards

[sharp geyser]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#sharding-max-concurrency this explains more of what I am trying to achieve

sorry wrong part

[earnest phoenix]

From what I'm seeing in your current implementation, you're connecting one shard, and then waiting 5 seconds to connect the next shard instead of doing it concurrently, is that what you intend on doing?

[sharp geyser]

Not really

tim told me thats how he did it and I thought it'd be fine to do so for now which in truth it is

but I realize I wanna implement the full thing right away to get it over with

Yet I don't know how i'd go about doing so

[sharp geyser]

Any idea? Cause reading the documentation on how it works and trying to apply it doesn't seem to be working.

cause if they are trying to load multiple shards and only able to concurrently load 1 shard every 5s then id % concurrency will always = 0

so every shard will be the same modulo id so it should wait 5s between in shard, yet it doesn't seem to be doing that, it simply just doesn't load any shards now

[earnest phoenix]

Your implementation is mostly correct (though I think you got it from Tim), you can just halt the loop with a promise waiting the amount of time needed to connect to the next bucket of shards

Basically:

import { setTimeout as setPromisedTimeout } from 'node:timers/promises';

...

if (current - previous < 5_000)
  await setPromisedTimeout(5_000);

// Connect the shard here

[sharp geyser]

I indeed got it from tim :p

[earnest phoenix]

If the time set for the previous shard bucket is less 5 seconds then it's highly likely that the next shards in the shard bucket have a value of less than 5 seconds, so doing that will wait the amount of time necessary for it to be higher than 5 seconds and for the next ones to be available for connection

[sharp geyser]

I see

I should also call the connect method in the timeout part no?

[earnest phoenix]

Although actually you should just hardcode waiting for 5 seconds just in case, not the diff, let me edit

There we go

[earnest phoenix]

That's unnecessary because it would just wait then reach the connection part, see how I left the connection part outside of the if statement?

[sharp geyser]

hum

Maybe im not understanding the code properly

cause to my understanding the bucket will hold all shards that can currently be identified which mind you depending on their max_concurrency can be 1-16

[earnest phoenix]

Basically:

1. Get the previous shard bucket time value
2. Is it less than 5 seconds?

• Wait 5 seconds to let the next set of shards become available for concurrent connection

3. Connect current shard

[sharp geyser]

So if only 1 shard is in the bucket, it'll load, but now the bucket is empty and won't be filled again cause its not filling it later

[sharp geyser]

    async connect() {
        if (this.socketStore.size <= 0) this.#createSockets();
        const { session_start_limit }: APIGatewayBotInfo = await fetch('https://discord.com/api/v10/gateway/bot', {
            headers: {
                Authorization: `Bot ${this.client.token}`,
                'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            },
        }).then((res) => res.json());

        const maxConcurrency = session_start_limit.max_concurrency;

        this.#bucket = Array(maxConcurrency).fill(0);

        for (const [id, socket] of this.socketStore) {
            const shard_bucket = id % session_start_limit.max_concurrency;
            const previous = this.#bucket[shard_bucket];
            const current = Date.now();
            if (current - previous < 5_000) {
                await setPromisedTimeout(5_000);
            }
            this.#bucket[shard_bucket] = current
            await socket.connect()
        }
    }

From my current code to me it looks like thats not what happens tho

To me it looks like it Loads the bucket, identifies the shard and stops

[pale vessel]

unrelated but is that content type really necessary when it's a GET request

[sharp geyser]

likely not, force of habit tho

[lyric mountain]

after I spent 3 hours debugging a delphi webserver, I always add User-Agent and Content-Type headers

regardless of whether they're needed at all

[pale vessel]

yeah, some APIs refuse to respond or errors if you don't set a user agent header

ESPECIALLY GitHub

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[pale vessel]

learned that the hard way

[lyric mountain]

what agent do u use? Mozilla/5.0?

[pale vessel]

"yes"

any text works

[lyric mountain]

lmao no way

[earnest phoenix]

The shard bucket contains all of the shards that can be connected, with the rate limit key assigned to each of them obtained from shard_id % max_concurrency (shown in the official Discord documentation, the one you linked)

For example, let's say you have 32 shards, the shard bucket would be:

shard_id: 0, rate limit key (0 % 16): 0
shard_id: 1, rate limit key (1 % 16): 1
shard_id: 2, rate limit key (2 % 16): 2
shard_id: 3, rate limit key (3 % 16): 3
shard_id: 4, rate limit key (4 % 16): 4
shard_id: 5, rate limit key (5 % 16): 5
shard_id: 6, rate limit key (6 % 16): 6
shard_id: 7, rate limit key (7 % 16): 7
shard_id: 8, rate limit key (8 % 16): 8
shard_id: 9, rate limit key (9 % 16): 9
shard_id: 10, rate limit key (10 % 16): 10
shard_id: 11, rate limit key (11 % 16): 11
shard_id: 12, rate limit key (12 % 16): 12
shard_id: 13, rate limit key (13 % 16): 13
shard_id: 14, rate limit key (14 % 16): 14
shard_id: 15, rate limit key (15 % 16): 15
shard_id: 16, rate limit key (16 % 16): 0
shard_id: 17, rate limit key (17 % 16): 1
shard_id: 18, rate limit key (18 % 16): 2
shard_id: 19, rate limit key (19 % 16): 3
shard_id: 20, rate limit key (20 % 16): 4
shard_id: 21, rate limit key (21 % 16): 5
shard_id: 22, rate limit key (22 % 16): 6
shard_id: 23, rate limit key (23 % 16): 7
shard_id: 24, rate limit key (24 % 16): 8
shard_id: 25, rate limit key (25 % 16): 9
shard_id: 26, rate limit key (26 % 16): 10
shard_id: 27, rate limit key (27 % 16): 11
shard_id: 28, rate limit key (28 % 16): 12
shard_id: 29, rate limit key (29 % 16): 13
shard_id: 30, rate limit key (30 % 16): 14
shard_id: 31, rate limit key (31 % 16): 15

Now we iterate through all 32 shards and do the following:

1. Obtain rate limit key (in this example of 32 shards, if the previous rate limit key was 31, it would go back to 0 with the calculation we do)
2. Get the previous time set in shard bucket with the rate limit key
3. If the previous time set is less than 5 seconds, not enough time has passed to start connecting the next set of shards, so wait 5 seconds
4. Overwrite the previous time set in the shard bucket with the current time we calculated
5. Connect the shard

did u really type that on mobile?

it was working till it wasn't

I think I know what happened

It was likely trying to send a heartbeat

I think sending heartbeats while sharding is different

[lament rock]

simplify your logic to

if (!data || !data.d || !data.op) ...

wont fix it but got damn do I hate if (!(expression))

[sharp geyser]

Actually I don't think heartbeating with shards is any different

[lyric mountain]

if (!data?.d || !data?.op) ...

[lament rock]

Optional chaining isnt in a lot of node distributions. I know someone who still uses v12

[sharp geyser]

I would never

[neon leaf]

skill issue using eol

[lyric mountain]

if (!Object.keys(data == null || typeof data !== "object" ? {} : data).some(k => ["d", "op"].includes(k))) ...

[lament rock]

if data is undefined, that will throw an error pretty sure

[lyric mountain]

there

[lament rock]

Null coalescing was added around the same time as optional chaining

[sharp geyser]

bro wtf

[lament rock]

use logical or instead

null is typeof "object"

[pale vessel]

yeah was about to say

[lament rock]

my brother in christ

[sharp geyser]

https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/649d58b882db458bb1ea512076408cb2 this is the data that gets sent to the gateway, it seems to error on the last heartbeat, which makes sense cause I don't think discord like d being 0 it has to be null or >1

yet idk why its being set as 0 to begin with

nvm I do

[lament rock]

The d for heartbeat has to be your last received s

[sharp geyser]

yea

which if you didn't receive one should be null by default

yet I stupidly made it 0

[earnest atlas]

Hello

[sharp geyser]

wait what

Maybe that isn't the issue?

yea no its an issue with sending the heartbeat but why

😩

Oh im fucking dumb

!null -> true so ofc its going to error cause it fulfils the condition

[sharp geyser]

Why does this actually work

😩

it looks so weird

Time to use it

[lyric mountain]

because for js everything is a map

[sharp geyser]

fair enough

[lyric mountain]

arrays? map
strings? map
numbers? believe it or not, map

boolean? yep, you get it

[sharp geyser]

why does that make sense

[earnest phoenix]

?

[sharp geyser]

oldEyes

[sharp geyser]

Wtf

[earnest phoenix]

What Kuu's snippet does is just check if those keys are present in the object

[lyric mountain]

in a very convoluted way

[earnest phoenix]

if (
  data == null /* compares to both null and undefined */ ||
  !('d' in data && 'op' in data)
) { ... }

// or

if (
  data == null ||
  !('d' in data) ||
  !('op' in data)
) { ... }

// though doesn't matter

[sharp geyser]

Sharding is interesting

Should I also add auto sharding which will use discord's recommended shard #?

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah

Most people use auto shard count anyway

[sharp geyser]

Alright

https://hastebin.com/share/zinipizajo.typescript what you guys think?

actually would doing this

for (let id = 0; id < (this.sockets === 'auto' ? shards : this.sockets); id++)
            this.socketStore.set(id, new Socket(id, this));
``` be better than doing a if/else?

[earnest phoenix]

The second clause of a for loop is evaluated on each iteration so I'd recommend putting that outside the loop, basically assign the value to a variable

Even though it'll most likely be optimized anyway, you should try to put such evaluation outside just in case

[sharp geyser]

I see

Thank you volty

[surreal sage]

I ordered an additional IP address at my vps provider
The server lost its internet connection and I'm connected via VNC
Netplan isn't installed for some reason
Can some1 help me out?

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome Misty

[sharp geyser]

What provider

[surreal sage]

contabo

[sharp geyser]

Okay

ubuntu?

[surreal sage]

wont be expecting a response at 11pm

20.x

[sharp geyser]

Did you get an email from them when they finished setting up your ip?

[surreal sage]

Yes

Netmask: 255.255.192.0
Prefix: /18

[sharp geyser]

Okay, did you read the part where they don't auto configure the ip for you so you must do it yourself

[surreal sage]

I know

I tried to

Netplan isn't installed for some reason

Something happened and now it doesn't have an internet connection

[sharp geyser]

when you were doing these configurations did netplan apply work?

[surreal sage]

No

Command not found

[sharp geyser]

okay, so what did you do during this that caused you to bork your vps

[surreal sage]

I have no idea

I modified the netplan file

[sharp geyser]

without running netplan apply it won't change anything even if you reboot

[surreal sage]

- ip/18

yeah

i edited it

rebooted

thats all

since netplan didnt work

[sharp geyser]

Then you did something else

[surreal sage]

let me list all the commands i did

[sharp geyser]

are you able to show your current netplan file

[surreal sage]

yes

[sharp geyser]

show it

[surreal sage]

blurring cuz im a lil monkey

all the commands I did in order, and response if needed

nano /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml
netplan apply
- netplan: command not found
netplan
- netplan: command not found
netplan generate
- netplan: command not found
sudo apt install netplan
- unable to locate package
(cleared out my screen sessions as they were not used, all weren't running anything)
sudo reboot

that's literally it

[earnest phoenix]

Simply download the Netplan .deb file on a machine that has internet connection, move it to the VPS using something like SFTP, and run sudo dpkg -i <path/to/.deb/file>

[surreal sage]

I can't move it over as it isn't connected to the internet

It's a vps

I only have vnc access rn

[sharp geyser]

as long as the vps is on, you should be able to SFTP into it no?

[surreal sage]

nope

connection timeout

just tried

same /w ssh

[sharp geyser]

I mean you could try to do a recovery or wipe the vps but I don't think thats needed

there is probably some other underlying issue here

[surreal sage]

Yeah

(I don't have a copy of the files)

(+ no snapshots)

[sharp geyser]

what does your firewall look like might be you fucked up your config there somehow?

run ufw status

[surreal sage]

how can i rescale in vnc

cuz it's more lines than I can see

cant scroll

[sharp geyser]

just show what you can ig

I don't use vnc so idk

[sharp geyser]

assuming your ssh port is still 22 then yea you should be able to ssh into it

[surreal sage]

It doesn't have a connection to the internet

The VNC server is on a different machine

Who is just relaying the inputs and ouputs

[sharp geyser]

I just don't get how your vps could not have internet access, I don't think contabo even allows you to fuck up that badly

[surreal sage]

well shit happened 😭

3 folders i care about

[sharp geyser]

How certain are you that its a internet issue, what happens if you try installing a package or whatever

or even using curl

[earnest phoenix]

What happens when you run the following in order?

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt full-upgrade
$ sudo apt install netplan.io

[surreal sage]

good luck getting past #1

[earnest phoenix]

The package may hopefully be cached, try the third command

[surreal sage]

sent in a support request ig

[earnest phoenix]

What is your nameserver in the /etc/resolv.conf file?

[surreal sage]

checking

[surreal sage]

127.0.0.53

[earnest phoenix]

Try changing that to 8.8.8.8

[neon leaf]

who told me this was correct like 4 months ago?

class PassThrough64K extends Duplex {
    constructor() {
        super({
            read() {},
            write(chunk: ArrayBuffer) {
                let chunkCount = Math.ceil(chunk.byteLength / size(64).kb()), index = 0
        
                while (chunkCount) {
                    this.push(chunk.slice(index, index + size(64).kb()))
                    index += size(64).kb()
                    chunkCount--
                }
            }
        })
    }
}```

it seems like its just forgetting some chunks

probably just last or first

[surreal sage]

Doesn't work, Contabo replied

[neon leaf]

nvm, something else is broken

ooh

[tulip ledge]

What did they say?

How hard did u mess up? Haha I’d like to know so I don’t do the same 💀

[surreal sage]

Creds

Nothing sensitive on there besides a website or two

Changed it right before

But yeah waiting rn

I will be forwarding your email to our technical department for further investigation. You will receive an answer as quickly as possible, but in the meantime, we kindly ask for your patience.

ok then

[spark pebble]

How can you DM user who adds bot to the server? Apparently you can only do it via audit log? 🤷

Which I don't believe, cos bot would need access to view audit log, which doubt.

[rustic nova]

you can figure out which user invited a bot

that requires viewing the audit log

so yes, that is not possible without audit log perms

[lament rock]

Alternatively, there's the oauth2 flow iirc

[rustic nova]

you can do a bit of trickery and include a oauth that tells

yeah that

tells your bot when it was invited successfully

[spark pebble]

Ahh okay, that sounds better, ty

[spark pebble]

you have docs for this mate? or video or w.e

[rustic nova]

nah

just look into how oauth on discord works

GatewayEvents[data.t!] returns undefined

import { MessageCreateHandler, GuildCreateHandler } from '../';

export const GatewayEvents: Readonly<Record<string, Function>> = Object.freeze({
    MESSAGE_CREATE: GuildCreateHandler,
    GUILD_CREATE: MessageCreateHandler,
});

Am i misinterpreting how Object.freeze works?

I now know the reason is because of hows it typed ig

but still

export const GatewayEvents = Object.freeze({
    MESSAGE_CREATE: GuildCreateHandler,
    GUILD_CREATE: MessageCreateHandler,
});

even as this it gives an error that type any cannot be index by type string

[lament rock]

freeze makes all properties of a depth of 1 readonly

children of the frozen child can still be edited tho

[sharp geyser]

I dont see how this pertains to my issue of not being able to index the Object once its been frozen via a string because of how stupid typescript's type safety is

TS7053: Element implicitly has an 'any' type because expression of type 'string' can't be used to index type 'Readonly<{ MESSAGE_CREATE: (client: Client, data: GatewayGuildCreateDispatchData) => void; GUILD_CREATE: (client: Client, data: GatewayMessageCreateDispatchData) => void; }>'.

This is the error, ig I forgor to post the new one

[lament rock]

You can't edit a frozen object

[sharp geyser]

Im not trying to 💀

Im trying to ACCESS it

[lament rock]

you can cast the key as string

[sharp geyser]

bruh

I tried

😭

[lament rock]

thing[key as keyof typeof thing]

[sharp geyser]

But no matter what its undefined then

[lament rock]

Then the key you're using doesn't exist in the Object

alternatively, use Object.getProperty

[sharp geyser]

it does tho 💀

GUILD_CREATE most definitely exists

unless we're both blind

[wheat mesa]

Have you tried logging what data.t actually is

[sharp geyser]

yea

its GUILD_CREATE

[wheat mesa]

Are you sure

Like 100%

[sharp geyser]

I mean, I console logged data.t

so yea

I console log it as each event is passed through

READY -> GUILD_CREATE

[wheat mesa]

Have you perhaps considered that you don’t have a READY prop 😭

[sharp geyser]

I would if not for my switch case already handeling READY so the default doesn't care about that specific event

[lament rock]

if READY is logged as an attempted key access, then it's no wonder you'd get undefined

[sharp geyser]

What

Have you been paying attention to what i've wrote

[lament rock]

Loosely.
When you go to access the GatewayEvents, I'd just double, nay, triple check what your accessing is valid

[sharp geyser]

If you are referring to this, this is simply the chain that events get logged top level, not inside my switch case. My switch case already handles ready event triggers and default takes care of the rest

Actually it doesn't even seem to be a problem with that

I might just be dumb and trying to do the impossible

[lament rock]

wdym

[sharp geyser]

Well I indexed it myself with a key and it still returns undefined despite it 100% existing

so doesn't seem to be an issue with using data.t at all

[radiant kraken]

insane

[radiant kraken]

you forgot a READY: ReadyHandler here

[lament rock]

They insist something else handles ready

[sharp geyser]

Because it does

[sharp geyser]

Anyways, my values are exported functions which likely aren't allowed to be done this way

[radiant kraken]

this?

[sharp geyser]

my god

im done

[radiant kraken]

oh okay

[lament rock]

wdym arent allowed

[sharp geyser]

[sharp geyser]

Yea well then I have no idea why my strange case is happening

despite everything it claims it is undefined so i give up

[lament rock]

provide more code and I'll take peek

[sharp geyser]

Idk what other code you want

those are literally the only 2 things that contribute

[lament rock]

like where you access the Object

[sharp geyser]

https://github.com/shensuojs/shensuo/blob/master/src/core/client/socket/Socket.ts#L143 this is where I am trying to access it

[radiant kraken]

what does console.log(GatewayEventHandlers) do?

[sharp geyser]

where are you seeing this at

[radiant kraken]

the line you've just showed?

[sharp geyser]

youre seeing wrong

[radiant kraken]

i know

i'm just telling you to log the whole object

[sharp geyser]

I mean if indexing GUILD_CREATE makes it return undefined then it would just be an object with the values being undefined

such as this

[radiant kraken]

then the constants you define are probably undefined

[sharp geyser]

I don't see how

Unless im not able to reference a function like how I am

[radiant kraken]

since looking from your codebase structure

i can see why you could mistake to things might not exist

[sharp geyser]

hm?

[radiant kraken]

like this https://github.com/shensuojs/shensuo/blob/master/src/core/index.ts

[sharp geyser]

yea

what about it

its a barrel file

[radiant kraken]

you probably forgot to export/import those handler functions somewhere

[sharp geyser]

if I did that typescript would be erroring even before everything else

[kind lily]

is it allowed to join discord servers that your bot is in using the bot to generate the invite link?

[sharp geyser]

Nope

[kind lily]

oo

[radiant kraken]

i doubt that the constants are randomly set undefined during runtime

it's most likely undefined from the very beginning

[sharp geyser]

Highly possible, but I don't see how

[radiant kraken]

^

or something related

[sharp geyser]

Again I don't see anywhere im doing such a thing

[kind lily]

@sharp geyser can u refer me to where it says this because I can't manage to find it

[radiant kraken]

maybe it's from the ordering of imports here?

since client is imported before socket

since iirc node reads JS files line-by-line, ordering of imports matter, no?

@sharp geyser

[sharp geyser]

yea I think you're right

as importing directly from the handlers file seems to work fine

[radiant kraken]

wait i meant this file https://github.com/shensuojs/shensuo/blob/master/src/core/client/index.ts

[sharp geyser]

yea

I know

[kind lily]

@sharp geyser if u got time ^

[sharp geyser]

Its not inherently stated, but it is very much frowned upon. So ig I should rephrase my answer

[wheat mesa]

Shouldn’t matter? JIT doesn’t imply line-by-line execution

[sharp geyser]

Idk why importing from a barrel file causes issues

but directly importing from the folder where those handlers are works fine

This is an issue in production as well if said issue occurs for people when importing things

[radiant kraken]

i meant read line-by-line

or something idk

@earnest phoenix

[radiant kraken]

does reordering the imports fix it?

[sharp geyser]

No

[radiant kraken]

sad

[sharp geyser]

I think internally I should just import directly from those files until some contributor figures it out

[radiant kraken]

frfr

codebase design should be for later

[sharp geyser]

Cause my dumbass can't tell why doing so from the root folder which exports everything from those folder/subfolders anyway breaks

Anyway

Events work :)

[radiant kraken]

nice

[sharp geyser]

Now to pain stakingly write out the classes that model the data

[radiant kraken]

good luck on writing your own discord framework, as an ex-discord lib dev, you're in for such a ride

[sharp geyser]

I've done it before but gave up cause I saw no one using it

Its a struggle when you try and do it properly

with a gap of 6 months from coding any proper project

[radiant kraken]

because people would just use discord.js

why would they use any other third party library

[sharp geyser]

because mine isn't as cancer as discord.js ||this is false but dont tell them||

[radiant kraken]

frfr

[sharp geyser]

ugh writing out classes is annoying and I could probably be doing this in a much better way but meh

[marsh lark]

You'd love Java

[sharp geyser]

I do like java actually

I just hardly use it so im not as good with it

[marsh lark]

Tbf most of my Java experience was school and minecraft

[sharp geyser]

I've never had an actual teacher teach me any programming

its all self taught, which explains why im so bad at it

[radiant kraken]

Java is a decent language

[marsh lark]

I also learnt Javascript & TS fully self taught, and the only programming knowledge I had before that was Scratch (and like hello world python)

[radiant kraken]

same tbh, but i'm actually really good at most of the things i know

self taught >>>

[sharp geyser]

Im not cause I am the kind of person that strives when things are explained to me like im 5 years old

[radiant kraken]

my school doesnt have a computer science subject

they neglected my passions

[sharp geyser]

Fucking spoke too soon

Now for some reason im not receiving message content despite having it enabled on the bot page and asking for the intent when identifying

😩

[marsh lark]

Are you subscribing to the intent?

[sharp geyser]

Yep

I faced this issue before but I don't remember what I did to solve it

32769 is the sum of GUILDS + MESSAGE_CONTENT

thats what is being sent to discord

[lyric mountain]

It's very different to actually using java

It's a whole different experience

Schools usually constrain you to java 8

[wheat mesa]

You shouldn’t be adding

[lyric mountain]

Which is bad

[wheat mesa]

You should be using bitwise OR

Technically it shouldn’t matter if the bits are unique but just to make sure

[marsh lark]

32769 is correct

[wheat mesa]

GuildMessages

Should probably add that one in

[marsh lark]

Thats for receiving messages no?

You dont need it to fetch or recieve message context menu interactions

[lyric mountain]

Adding bitflags usually works but yeah, don't do it as you might spend hours debugging to know why it isn't working

[wheat mesa]

He’s asking about message content

[marsh lark]

Yes

Which is why you don't need guild messages

You just need message content

[lyric mountain]

U don't receive messages without guild message intent

[marsh lark]

When did misty ever say about receiving messages

[sharp geyser]

export function parseIntents(intents: Array<GatewayIntentBits>): number {
    return intents.reduce((partialSum, a) => partialSum | a, 0);
}
``` I am

[lyric mountain]

Message content allows reading the messages, guild messages enables receiving message events

[wheat mesa]

Enable GuildMessages

[sharp geyser]

why are there so many intents for messages bruh

[wheat mesa]

Assuming you’re trying to get the event here

[radiant kraken]

you cant get message content without guild messages in the first place

[lyric mountain]

U might not want to receive message events if ur bot is a dm-only bot for example

[sharp geyser]

thank you guys

[lyric mountain]

Or purely a lurker like topgg bot

[sharp geyser]

😔

[marsh lark]

But you can?

[radiant kraken]

how

[sharp geyser]

GuildMessages only relate to guild events

[marsh lark]

Guild messages is just for receiving messages

You can still fetch messages without it

[sharp geyser]

DirectMessages is for recieving the message events in dms

[lyric mountain]

U can't read messages u never receive

I mean, u can, if u fetch them

[sharp geyser]

MessageContent is simply just giving you the content of the message but you can still receive them

[lyric mountain]

But how will u get the id?

[marsh lark]

There's tons of ways to get ids

A user can specify it

[radiant kraken]

yeah i know, which is why you should have either enabled too

[lyric mountain]

Yes, but it'd be awkward to have the user write the id every time

Also how would it even work practically?

[marsh lark]

This is completely irrelevant to whether you need guild messages intent

[lyric mountain]

A bot without guild messages is a blind bot

[marsh lark]

All HTTP bots don't need any intents, they use http

And somehow they still work

woah

[lyric mountain]

First, no http bots

They're called slash applications, they work though webhooks

[marsh lark]

You can replicate http bot behaviour even with gateway, you can simply just don't subscribe to any intents

[marsh lark]

But you need a bot application for that still...

[lyric mountain]

Second, they don't need message content either, as they always have the content of the command

[lyric mountain]

U dont

U only need an application

All bots are applications, but not all apps are bots

[marsh lark]

well ok

[lyric mountain]

An example would be a "bot" that you add to the server, without inviting

Those are pure applications

[marsh lark]

how do you add a bot without inviting

[lyric mountain]

You use the interactions scope without bot

The bot member never gets added

But the commands do appear

Some bots use this, usually mod bots

Or third party service bots

You have the content here

yep

cause I asked for it

:p

oh you solved it?

yea

Im showing off my awesome Message class

just asked for the GuildMessages intent

forgor to do that

[marsh lark]

are you listening to messages

rn I am receiving messages yea

oh yeah then you need guild messages

look at all this data I have to parse down

[marsh lark]

is that not just api raw data

[sharp geyser]

yep

[marsh lark]

so what'd you have to parse lol

[sharp geyser]

Im turning it into my own Message class that way I can better interact with the data

[marsh lark]

so like djs?

[radiant kraken]

nope

[sharp geyser]

or like any sane discord library

imagine interacting with the raw data 24/7

[radiant kraken]

djs has its own classes for every API datatype

[marsh lark]

yeah

[radiant kraken]

misty is just using the raw data

[lyric mountain]

It's fuckin raw

[sharp geyser]

Im trying to make this as light weight as possible when it comes to this kind of stuff

[marsh lark]

have you heard of @discordjs/core

[sharp geyser]

I could even build a framework into the lib itself or make a standalone framework that requires the lib idk yet

[sharp geyser]

brody I haven't touched fucking discord.js in years

[radiant kraken]

i do, i made a libless discord bot once that works with just raw api data

[sharp geyser]

idk anything bout it

[radiant kraken]

was really fun

[sharp geyser]

it's fun

but not to the scale im trying to go

where you constantly need that data to be interactive with other parts of the app

it's better to have a class

[marsh lark]

discordjs/core is basically an api wrapper that returns raw data, but includes gateway + rest unlike discordjs/rest

[sharp geyser]

makes sense

mind you discord.js devs despite their clusterfuck of managing the lib are like 100x smarter than I am so despite how messy their code looks it works

[radiant kraken]

@sharp geyser just steal my old discord library code

https://github.com/null8626/archive/tree/main/archive/20210403-discord-bot-lib

[sharp geyser]

My code is the dumpster trash version of djs

[radiant kraken]

its absolutely barebones

[sharp geyser]

Mine was barebones until I started adding client stuff and rest api onto it

not to mention volty helped me with the sharding part

:p

thank god he did cause that was going over my head

[radiant kraken]

have you heard of tiny-discord tho

best library

[sharp geyser]

tiny-discord is the most performant barebones lib i've seen ngl

[radiant kraken]

frfr

tim the goat

[sharp geyser]

Okay thats enough programming for a bit

ima take a break

[radiant kraken]

i tried making a discord library in C once

[sharp geyser]

I should make the support server for this lib that will never see anyone's code base one day

[sharp geyser]

Sounds like it went well

[radiant kraken]

keyword: tried

couldn't get OpenSSL's websockets to work

i was basically copying DPP's code lmao

Lmfao

[compact pier]

How can I listen for log file and log the line that being added?

  watchFile(__dirname + '/log.txt', async (curr, prev) => {
    console.log(`the current mtime is: ${curr.mtime}`);
    console.log(`the previous mtime was: ${prev.mtime}`);
    const logFileContent = await readFileSync(__dirname + "/log.txt", { encoding: "utf8" });
    console.log(logFileContent);
  })

Tried something like this, but it will just log the whole file everytime

[lament rock]

Split by \n and log the last entry

[quartz kindle]

that will still load the whole file every time tho

[compact pier]

I figured it out

by comparing the line

everytime there will be a new log line

so I will use console.log(newLog.slice(oldLogLines.length, newLogLines.length))

[earnest phoenix]

Order of imports in JavaScript depends on the module resolution you're using, if you're using CommonJS then the order always matters, if you're using ES Modules however, synchronous modules' order is guaranteed but if the module being imported is asynchronous then the order cannot be guaranteed so you'd have to be careful with that (though you rarely have to care about import order)

Note that an asynchronous module is an ES Module that uses features like TLA (Top-Level Await)

[radiant kraken]

ur cool

[neon leaf]

how can I make this work using only typescript types?

type Data = {
  okay: {
    mhhh: 12
    ok: 'hi'
    e: {
      g: 1
    }
  }
}

type Keys = ???
// 'okay.mhhh' | 'okay.ok' | 'okay.e.g'

type KeyData<Key extends Keys> = ???
// KeyData<'okay.ok'> - 'hi'

[marsh lark]

I don't think that's possible using dot notation in a string

[neon leaf]

it is possible sir, ive seen it before but cant find the link anymore

type recursion

[marsh lark]

You can do Data[okay][ok] though

[neon leaf]

yeah thats not what I want

I know that

[marsh lark]

Actually it might be with newer typescript

[sharp geyser]

I am confusion, largely cause im not fully awake yet

[marsh lark]

Does this work? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47057649/typescript-string-dot-notation-of-nested-object

[sharp geyser]

Seems you want to use something similar to dot-prop no?

[neon leaf]

yeee

[sharp geyser]

https://npmjs.com/package/dot-prop might also be an option tho idk your use case here

[marsh lark]

They were asking for a typescript type

[sharp geyser]

ok

dk why you'd want a type to do that

[marsh lark]

Me neither

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[neon leaf]

type safe translations

[grim aspen]

i wouldn't worry too much on it. let them do them

[neon leaf]

now the question is just how do I reverse it 🤔

I guess it's discord.js v14 right?

[sharp geyser]

are you importing Intents

[sharp geyser]

What is the difference between extends and implements when using classes. I sort of get that extends basically inherits all that the class is and implements doesn't necessarily do that rather it seems to only take on some stuff (idk)

[steep jay]

Hi, do you have any VPS recommendations which has perfect internet speed but not expensive?

[rustic nova]

cheap ones will always have fair usage

and being limited a bunch

though you can try this out

and just compare the prices with eachother on higher networks etc

[steep jay]

is hetzner good?

[rustic nova]

I'm using a dedicated server from hetzner right now, which costs around 34 Euros

so at least on their dedis they're good

[steep jay]

alright ty!

[deft wolf]

It's almost 100mb/s

[steep jay]

hetzner?

[deft wolf]

No, this is something different

[steep jay]

ah ok

[rustic nova]

if thats on a vps, then you're likely limited on traffic instead

or this is heavily limited on fair use

Yeah

unlikely to reach that though

unless you provide content that might easily exceed that

• several nginx-related elements
• a VPN running on my server that I have 2 laptops locally connected to

[wooden ember]

mmm I love the fact that I need like 1 gb of dependancies just to make d.js voice work

size on disk i mean not downloaded thank god for compression

[spark pebble]

I already know the answer, but I'm just triple checking @commands.is_owner is the bot owner, and not server owner, right?

[surreal sage]

how can I do this in node
I'm a bit too dumb

Ok I have a way

nvm

[lyric mountain]

depends on what u mean with "attempt to decrypt"

[surreal sage]

nah I got it

Encrypt with aes

Get the src string's hash

Attempt to decrypt the encrypted string
Check if its hash matches

[wicked perch]

where to download ram

[wooden ember]

can some one please tell me why installing node packages keeps un installing my allready installed ones?

[wicked perch]

Because they update on install

So if you do node install discord.js for example.. it replaces the old one

[wooden ember]

thats stupid

[wicked perch]

It isn't

it's just updating it

[wooden ember]

if i install discord.js I dont want it uninstalling ytdl-core for no reason

[wicked perch]

It shouldn't do that

[wooden ember]

all of these where isntalled minutes ago and the bot ran perfectly for once

and now its all fucked

again

[wicked perch]

So if you install only canvas, it doesn't work?

Try node list

npm list*

[wooden ember]

canvas didnt work befor but was installed

something about esm module bla bla

[wicked perch]

Try downloading a previous package

[wooden ember]

I dont use that command so dont mind if it doesnt load

I did but that was broken from the newer version of node

[wicked perch]

You downloaded a package made for ts

and ur using js

Yea, that's an issue from canvas

[wooden ember]

yeah but anyway is there a setting to make node leave my already installed packages alone instead of deleting them?

[wicked perch]

It shouldn't do anything with the rest tho

what command did u use to install

[wooden ember]

npm i libsodium-wrappers was the last npm command I entered

did that cuz apparently its a dependancy for discord voice that doesn't install automatically

[wicked perch]

weird idk

[wooden ember]

whats the lowest audio quality d.js suports?

bot used to work at the default setting but now my internet seems to be worse

i set it to 32Kb atm and that kinda works but only if i mute myself

mmm I don't think anything is changing set it to 16Kb/s and its still struggling and I know my internet isnt that bad

thatr and it doesn't sound like 16Kb audio either

connection.subscribe(player, { bitrate: 16000 }); is this the correct method?

hmm the source is 16kb and the quality isnt too great

i set it to 8kb and its still droping packets

the hell is happening

is there a global bandwitch setting thats just set to always use a sertain amount of bandwidth?

cuz audio streams used to work fine even on my potato internet

any one have any ideas? I gotta sleep now so if you guys got anything please ping me and I'll get back to you, thanks.

[rustic nova]

if it's dropping packets, it's likely due to the bandwidth of the host

[keen olive]

Bruh

[deft wolf]

[wooden ember]

but why? at 8Kb/s that should work even on modem speeds

it used to work fine did they change the way they stream audio and it uses more data now or something or is this just another "just get better internet you idiot" moment

see my internet is usually half a Mb up so this is better than usual and way more than enough for an 8Kbps stream

I know this speed test is gonna make everyone here cringe lmao

[earnest phoenix]

https://discordjs.guide/voice/#extra-dependencies

Choose the ones that are the most performant

[wooden ember]

I wound up just using libsodium-wrappers

that installed fine

[earnest phoenix]

For example, instead of libsodium-wrappers, use sodium

It's much more performant and efficient

[wooden ember]

yeah i did the oposite cuz sodium just wouldnt install

[earnest phoenix]

How so?

[wooden ember]

spammed the cli with loads of errors from the install script not running right

I cant remember entirly

[earnest phoenix]

You most likely just don't have something installed that's required, try it again and tell us the errors

[wooden ember]

I will in a bit cant turn the server on right now as I have thing to do in a sec

Ill get back to you in a bit

[eternal osprey]

in js, a forEach is non returnable right?

Like:

array = [1,2,3,4];
let k = array.forEach((el) => {
if(el === 1)
return "el_found"
})
console.log(k)``` -> undefined

oowh damn so that's why we have .find

[cinder patio]

if you don't need the element itself you can use some

[frosty gale]

good question regardless

probably not

[marsh lark]

If you want forEach() to return the value you should use .map()

[wheat mesa]

What?

No. Not at all.

[marsh lark]

map() is almost identical to forEach() except that it returns the value you returned in the function

in an array

[quartz kindle]

not exactly

.map returns a new array with every single value replaced by the value returned for each index on each iteration

its like transforming an array into a different array

[marsh lark]

Yeah and a side effect of that is you get to iterate through the array

which is what forEach does

[quartz kindle]

its not a side effect, its its purpose, its what it was made for

[marsh lark]

well yes

[deft wolf]

[quartz kindle]

kurwa

[radiant kraken]

all array methods iterate through the array lmao

if you want to use return at this point just use a classic for (value of array) {}

[marsh lark]

I dont think they want to return the entire function but rather they want the logic of .map()

[lyric mountain]

or break, in this case

[quartz kindle]

for >>> for of

[lyric mountain]

farofa

[quartz kindle]

de frango

[radiant kraken]

what? the message following that meant that they were looking for something like .some() or .find()

[radiant kraken]

you would rarely want to use a classic for loop unless you also need to access the index number

[quartz kindle]

you would for performance sensitive scenarios

which is rare in js but it does exist

[wheat mesa]

Isn’t for of faster though since it uses iterators?

[quartz kindle]

nop

iterators are slower

[wheat mesa]

Damn

[quartz kindle]

for is pure flow control

iterators are more complex structures

[lyric mountain]

me when "p" breaks

[quartz kindle]

xD

[radiant kraken]

at this point just use node-gyp if you want performance sensitive loops

[quartz kindle]

phone keyboard without autocorrect

[quartz kindle]

js to cpp is very slow, only worth it if youre dealing with something very heavy

to be worth the overhead

[radiant kraken]

i wouldnt really say that its very slow

[quartz kindle]

well its at least an order of magnitude slower

if not several

[radiant kraken]

well

then rewrite everything in cpp

ezpz

[quartz kindle]

or rust

:^)

[radiant kraken]

based

@earnest phoenix tim is now a rustacean

[quartz kindle]

shhh

dont wanna upset our cpp lord

[radiant kraken]

nah

he would be happy actually

[lyric mountain]

from a legless rat to orange crab

[marsh lark]

wdym by just for

[deft wolf]

For let i guess

[marsh lark]

the only for loops i know of are for in and for of

[lyric mountain]

for (let i = 0; i < smth; i++) {
  ...
}

[deft wolf]

Yea

I was typing this

[marsh lark]

ah

[lyric mountain]

hard to think of any iterating loop that'd be faster

while would be faster, but u cant use it for accessing anything without an iterator

[radiant kraken]

comparing between while and for is pointless

since their speed difference are merely just in microseconds

[wheat mesa]

I thought that for loops internally got transformed into while loops anyways

[lyric mountain]

they are

the difference is that for inherently gets an iterator, while while doesn't, so people might argue it's faster but also considerably less useful (alone) if ur iterating something

[earnest phoenix]

Ah, Tim is now a true catgirl then

[radiant kraken]

yes

now its your turn

[earnest phoenix]

for and while loops are not transformed from one to another, because they emit almost identical instructions with just one or two differing labels (but no actual instruction changes)

[wheat mesa]

Ah

I thought most languages transformed for loops to while loops in the AST because it’s easier to just have one structure to represent both of them instead of having another unique statement variant

[radiant kraken]

petition to add goto to javascript

[radiant kraken]

not if i force you

[earnest phoenix]

Btw if you're curious, you can look at these examples:

1. for loop
2. while loop

[wheat mesa]

yeah they're the exact same output with different labels, neat

[earnest phoenix]

I'm gonna goto your core labels

is any other format this slow too?

[sage bobcat]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[lyric mountain]

it's not the format, it's just that both sides are heavily compressed

[neon leaf]

hm

[lyric mountain]

webm is great for web, so it has to be small and fast-loading

[neon leaf]

I guess ill just add a background job for this then

so the user doesnt have to wait like 30+min

[lyric mountain]

well, you can assign more cores to ffmpeg no?

[neon leaf]

It almost has all already

[lyric mountain]

u can also use fast mode, which will probably result in poor quality x compression ratio, but it'll be fast

[wooden ember]

this is the line of errors it spits out theres some more at the botom if this isnt conclusive

thats the other bit

[lyric mountain]

love this

[wooden ember]

yeah I saw that too

lmao

[neon leaf]

I mean what would be the best for what im making? Its a invite only image / video uploader / sharer

[lyric mountain]

apparently, it's not finding some directory

[lyric mountain]

give the option to the uploader, or simply dont re-encode

[wooden ember]

I would asume it means this directory

[neon leaf]

I need to convert to mp4 so that it properly displays on all devices / embeds

[lyric mountain]

make the service only accept mp4s

[neon leaf]

well

hm

[lyric mountain]

for a service you'll never have enough processing on a single machine

[neon leaf]

I mean I have multiple machines

[lyric mountain]

ffmpeg has an option to spread the task over many machines

oh nvm, it depends on other softwares

[earnest phoenix]

This is the actual error:

npm ERR! make[1]: g++: No such file or directory

It means you don't have a C++ compiler installed, your system uses G++ as its default C++ compiler

[wooden ember]

how would I fix that?

[earnest phoenix]

Simply install g++: sudo apt install g++

[wooden ember]

what is g++ for then?

I thought that was a c++ compialer too

[earnest phoenix]

I'd highly recommend installing build-essential, it'll install everything needed for proper compilation

[wheat mesa]

compiling C++

and linking it

[earnest phoenix]

G++ is a C++ compiler (part of the GCC compiler)

[wooden ember]

I did... well I installed 'development tools' cuz that is fedora and thats the equivilant

[earnest phoenix]

Well it seems like the "development tools" group on Fedora doesn't install GCC nor G++

[wooden ember]

how odd

[wheat mesa]

it might install clang instead or something

[earnest phoenix]

Run sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++

[wooden ember]

I think I manually installed G++ for something else if I remember correctly but I really don't know, this is a minimal install of fedora server

[wheat mesa]

granted I would think npm would be smart enough to check for that installation

[earnest phoenix]

I don't know why the hell the Fedora repository maintainers named G++ as gcc-c++

No other Linux distribution does that

[frosty gale]

had the same exact thought 💀

[wheat mesa]

Probably some stupid name conflict with internals or something lmao

[frosty gale]

"it worked if it ends with ok"

[wooden ember]

Fedora do be kinda funky sometimes

I used to use centOS but we all know where thats gone

tryed rocky but it didn't like my server

[earnest phoenix]

Why not use Ubuntu?

[wooden ember]

I did for a while but its, eh I dant really articulate it well but its does a bunch of stuff on its own and takes a bit to confugure the way I want

like auto updates where a pain cuz my internet is bad and it would randomply just use it all

I will probably just use debian next time as some of the packages I use are instanely outdated and dont work properly on rehl based systems

[lyric mountain]

u can limit bandwidth on ubuntu

[earnest phoenix]

npm uses node-gyp to build/compile stuff, but it doesn't automatically check for all installed C/C++ compilers (most build tools don't either), they basically check for the system default but that can easily be changed using alternative links and symlinks, as well as environment variables that point at the compilers (like CC for the C compiler, and CXX for the C++ compiler)

[wooden ember]

true but that would be global and a pain in the ass when installing things cuz id have to remove the limit and put it back

I liked centOS cuz it just did what I wanted and just worked

[earnest phoenix]

There's no such thing as auto updates on Ubuntu

There are third-party tools that can auto update stuff for you but Ubuntu will never do that on its own

[wooden ember]

well it started using internet for no reason and I was not sshed into the machine and when i did there where system prosseses using bandwidth conected to ubuntu repositories

I never set it to do that and every time it did I just turned off the machine and turned it back on and it would fix it for a week or so

micht have been something I installed but never worked that one out

[earnest phoenix]

That's either your VPS provider doing some unusual stuff or you probably configured something incorrectly that checks in with the Ubuntu repositories for unknown reasons

What was your VPS provider that you tried Ubuntu on anyway?

[eternal osprey]

suppose i make an embed ephemeral, and in click on its button, can i somehow still edit the message?

and what if the embed was already edited

like, interaction.message.editReply() upon buttonclick?

[marsh lark]

Just use https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/receiving-and-responding#edit-original-interaction-response

[earnest phoenix]

Yes you can edit ephemeral messages, doesn't matter if it was already edited

Or more specifically 7 here

[wooden ember]

its not as bad as it looks its got a dual core athlon and 4gb of ram

ddr2 ram

but its good enough fro what i use it for

[earnest phoenix]

Holy shit it's the Ubisoft servers

[wooden ember]

shhhhh Don't tell then its the backup server they wont notice

[marsh lark]

Maybe will last as a backup server for a minute if we're being generous

[wooden ember]

I miss using that as my main server but even after powersaving optimisations it still would cost like £300 to run yearly

[lyric mountain]

just to add on this, make sure u do it through the hook, not the message itself

[marsh lark]

How much power does that pc suck?

[wooden ember]

I dont have anything to mesure it but at idle a rough calculation based on psu inefficiency and components was something like ~50w

that was the "worst case senario" that i went off of

cuz it was closer to 40w

but I have an extra audio card and the psu is only 20 pin and I think predates the 80+ standards

but its made by FSP and its really heavy so its not gonna expload (I hope)

[marsh lark]

have a fire extinguisher nearby just in case
