I had to pick out about 50 Tenor gifs and realized I was doing it wrong like this
it was painful to go through several files replacing each gif URL
quartz kindle
its easy to test
if you copy and paste the link into your browser, and it opens the tenor website, then its not a direct link
a direct link will open the pure image/video in a blank page

well unless i'm pulling the api wrong, this is the only link (other than the one similar to what discord sends, which also isn't right)

//event#messageDelete
console.log(deletedMessage.author)
//Log: null
messageDelete events do not include any information about the message
only the message id, channel id and guild id
if you dont have the message cached beforehand, you cannot get it any other way
the audit logs will only give you information if someone else deleted the message
not if the authors themselves did
tacit citrus
i just want to make it an if for author#bot but i see
auditlogs showing self-deleted messages?
quartz kindle
yes
tacit citrus
hmm but if i do it i should add all messages in the server
it can be useful actually
im using mongoDb for that
i can*
quartz kindle
if you cannot guess or predict which messages will be deleted, then yes, you'd need to store them all, which will quickly become a lot of data, so you will need a lot of storage
and you will also have to deal with privacy concerns
for example your bot will need to inform people that it is storing all messages, and the users must explicitly consent to it
otherwise you are violating privacy laws
tacit citrus
for example your bot will need to inform people that it is storing all messages,...
ah yes right but it is a custom bot

let msg = interaction.options.getString('content')
let mEmbed = new MessageEmbed()

return
}
msgChannel.send(`${msg} \n ${url}`)
interaction.reply({embeds: [mEmbed]})
}
catch(err) {
console.log(err)
}
}
}
down at the bottom where you have ${msg}
it would be ${msg.replace(/\\n/g, '\n')}
in all spots
then when you type out that message via the command, anywhere you you want to shift+enter, you'd type \n and the bot would do it for you

visual studio used to open my bot's output in windows terminal, how do i do that now rather than have it sent to the inbuilt terminal
quiet shoal
visual studio used to open my bot's output in windows terminal, how do i do that...
if you're talking about .net/c#, try building first then running the output binary directly, you can find it in (your project folder)\bin\[Release/Debug]\[runtime]\ProjectName.exe
an example would be bin\Debug\net6.0\ProjectName.exe
oh
just realised you're not using .net
however a way around this is to open your bot's folder in windows terminal and then use whatever command you run to execute your bot
earnest phoenix
that doesn't debug it though
quiet shoal
i think the builtin debug console is required if you wanna debug
earnest phoenix
it didn't used to be
it used to open it in windows terminal
at least in vs 2019
quiet shoal
i found this
earnest phoenix
yes that used to be the case
now it is not
i have wt as the default but now it opens the output in its own window rather than an external window
earnest phoenix
this comment is probably why https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/use-of-windows-terminal-during-debugging/1293343#T-N1701529

Do you have the GUILD_MEMBERS intent enabled?
If he hadn't enabled/typed it, it would have thrown an error.
wheat mesa
No? He’s just listening for an event that would never get sent without the intent enabled. Would not throw an error.
If anything, sending embeds the way he did would’ve thrown an error (or at least sent a deprecation warning of some sort)

that would be very inefficient lol
wheat mesa
imagine you do something like this ```js
let selected;
for(let i = 0; i < randomNumber; i++) {
selected = array[i];
}
doStuffWithSelected(selected);
surely v8 is smart enough to optimize that though
wheat mesa
well I was thinking it would see that no matter what, selected will always just end up to be array[randomNumber] and optimize it like that
quartz kindle
i mean, sure, but idk if v8 is that good
im guessing that would need some kind of AI assistance similar to what modern gpus use and shit
AI accelerated processing
wheat mesa
interesting
quartz kindle
you shouldnt need to have ipv6 to be able to connect to ipv6
earnest phoenix
^ pretty sure that’s the issue
nope
all links are expired
i restored it and now it works correctly
quartz kindle
also why is your vps ipv6 only? everything is dual stack these days
ipv4 is still required everywhere for compatibility reasons
wheat mesa
Is ipv4 on everything though? My router seems to only have an ipv6 address which sucks for me because I can’t host a minecraft server with ipv6
quartz kindle
i restored it and now it works correctly
yeah you shouldnt use those types of facebook links, they are all temporary, you're gonna have to keep updating them all the time

i used google
quartz kindle
is ipv4 that expensive?
earnest phoenix
this time
quartz kindle
wtf lmao
spark flint
wait no $6 a year
quartz kindle
do we really live in a world where ipv4 accounts for 80% of the costs of a vps?
and nobody knows?
wheat mesa
ipv4 should’ve never existed
quartz kindle
i mean, thats the same as saying 32 bit should've never existed
and 16bit
they were needed stepping stones
wheat mesa
Well to be fair I guess the people inventing it at the time didn’t expect to ever run out of addresses
quartz kindle
well a bit of googling says you need an ipv4->ipv6 tunnel to access an ipv6-only vps
also cloudflare seems to have that
boreal iron
ipv4 is still required everywhere for compatibility reasons
nope
even hetzner is moving away from that
They're charging a ridiculous amount of when ordering IPv4s
look at the setup prices
quartz kindle
nope
there's still a shit ton of systems and devices that are ipv4-only
the same way there's still a shit ton of pcs running windows xp
boreal iron
ipv6 only is already the default for dedicated servers and will become the default for their cloud servers in the future
they're just not done developing the network tech yet
as stated in the forum
quartz kindle
will their plans become cheaper tho?
boreal iron
there's still a shit ton of systems and devices that are ipv4-only
true but most cloud instances will never need IPv4 as those targets are mostly proxy targets from firewalls like opnsense or targets of load balancers
which never public their ipv4
boreal iron
will their plans become cheaper tho?
they were cheaper before and customers like me having 2 of the cheapest servers since the price increase are still paying 2,49€
quartz kindle
can you make an http request to an ipv4 website from an ipv6 vps?
boreal iron
yeah by using the internal routing of hetzner
you use their load balancers of course
quartz kindle
without paying for them?
boreal iron
no you pay for them, but you can add the servers to your virtual network using the virtual switches and you don't ipv4 anymore
as the target server never publishes it's ipv4 as the connection is only passthrough
either you use the virtual switches or their services like load balancers and firewalls
that's up to you
but the dedicated firewall (server) should of course have an IPv4
lofty cedar
I'm not sure if this is off-topic or not: how can I link a domain to a specific port of an ip?
boreal iron
but the passthrough connection to the targets can be either a virtual network and/or straight IPv6 behind the scenes
boreal iron
I'm not sure if this is off-topic or not: how can I link a domain to a specific ...
You can not
There's no such a DNS protocol supporting this except SRV records
But literally no fucking service today really supports SRV records for some reasonm
lofty cedar
so i basically need 2 different servers for 2 websites?
lofty cedar
those 2 website just don't belong to each other
boreal iron
and they're hosted on the same server?
lofty cedar
I'd like to
boreal iron
well that's when your webserver comes in place
you create the virtual host(name) which is your domain name, set the directory for it the server will listen to and that's it
lofty cedar
and i should point like an A name to the ip of the machine right?
quartz kindle
and i should point like an A name to the ip of the machine right?
both domains point to the same ip
and you have a webserver like nginx
who points the connection to different websites by parsing the domain name
boreal iron
IN A www. -> target IP
IN A @ -> target IP
IN A * -> target IP
lofty cedar
thanks! what does * stands for?
boreal iron
which is obviously www.yourdomain.org, @ usually is the base tld itself and * is any wildcard
lofty cedar
and you have a webserver like nginx
can i do it like with django?
lofty cedar
which is obviously www.yourdomain.org, @ usually is the base tld itself and * is...
ok, thanks!
quartz kindle
django is a framework, not a webserver i believe
boreal iron
the DNS consoles or zone management is different from hoster to hoster
quartz kindle
you need a webserver in front that points the correct addresses to the correct django processes
lofty cedar
django is a framework, not a webserver i believe

quartz kindle
basically those are the most popular linux-based webservers
boreal iron
well if you have already used apache a little bit, then think about sticking to it
quartz kindle
for example you can install nginx or apache directly from your distro's package manager
boreal iron
Tim changing his messages again
quartz kindle
then lets say you have several websites, each one running on a different port, by a different script
you will use the nginx/apache webserver to match the domain names, and forward them via reverse proxy to a port inside the vps
boreal iron
each one running on a different port
assuming they're running on an own webserver

I just wanna say -- I got a job offer thanks to my open source projects. I feel like in this day and age open source projects on github / gitlab can help a lot in finding a job
just building a cool open source tool or website or anything really will yield at least something

I wouldn't rely on that only when it comes to the time you gotta have to pay your bills

wheat mesa
Computer science and programming is basically the only thing that I genuinely enjoy doing

boreal iron
well... there're way more options possible nowadays than back in time like 10-15y ago
I mean why not
would have been helpful if you're already involved in a project you can now spend "more" time on
but finding something you can involved to is quite hard
and developing and releasing something completelly built on yourself people will use is even harder

At your age you should focus on building cool projects you can show recruiters

cinder patio
A programming language on your resume is pretty impressive
wheat mesa
Yeah that would look quite good lol
I should learn llvm
all the stuff I've made so far is from scratch without any llvm
Honestly maybe I'll do that
Because llvm makes it 1000000 times easier

hosting isn't free because it simply has maintenance fees just like your parents have to pay the electric bills
impossible without some investment
and the chance of your bot really growing big is extremely low
what you have built, someone built it better

You can use free hosts while your bot is small, but as it expands your needs will also likely expand
The hardware is generally the limiting factor

The guides on YouTube are mostly outdated, which leads to deprecation or completely breaking behavior, which is why it's considered as a bad idea

this is only valid in some cases though, for me there's two kinds of tutorial types - for masses and for ones who want to actually learn.
tutorials for masses are meant to be copypasted, tutorials for ones who want to learn will deep dive you into concepts and use a lot of buzzwords and try to explain to you. the latter will really only work for you if you're passionate about what you're doing

Well good for you, but many of the people hit a roadblock that way, and many important steps are skipped which leaves you with no option other than blindly asking people or trying out things without knowing what they do to fix it up, beginners don't tend to read the documentation, which is the main problem

Yeah, but most of them lead nowhere and skip many important parts of the thing you're trying to learn, which leaves you confused and just depart from what you actually want to learn, which is the main problem as mentioned

Traversy media finds a way to balance it out. He targets the masses but also teaches you something valuable
At least I myself have always managed to learn something from em
Ima take a break from this api for a bit and actually try and use some web dev stuff tbh
vivid fulcrum
very good decision
departing myself from discord bots was the best thing i could do
earnest phoenix
It would be understandable if you want to rather watch YouTube videos to learn if the official documentation and guides of the thing you're trying to learn are too hard to read or too confusing
pine nova
i learnt nodejs and js by making discord bots 💀

I understand what you're trying to say, I'm just saying the latter, as watching stuff to learn is just not the sharpest tool in the shed, and should be avoided as much as possible even for beginners
vivid fulcrum
i still do it though
earnest phoenix
As I said, it's understandable if the documentation/guides of said thing you want to learn is janky
sharp geyser
I mean it is bad if you don't do it properly
If you are trying to do what they are doing as they do it you aren't taking anything in as you're not paying attention to what they are saying you are just copying, if you wait for them to finish what they are saying then try it you will retain that knowledge better

Yeah, but most of them just doesn't provide a good way for the viewers to learn in videos either, as most of them just explain things in buzz words or ways you have no idea about which was already mentioned, which is the problematic thing, finding a good video guide on YouTube is like finding a shiny Pokemon
vivid fulcrum
then from there start customizing your components
sharp geyser
Yeah, but most of them just doesn't provide a good way for the viewers to learn ...
Valid point again, but videos in themselves aren't always completely useless, there are those who actually do explain things in the best way possible but the market for those videos are so flooded with people just copy pasting code from god knows where just to get a buck from views
earnest phoenix
And that is exactly my point

solemn latch
Well, a table can hold important data.
It's hard to tell without context, but like ownership info, public/private settings, view counts, users who have permission to modify the image, titles, description, etc all can be in the database table.
All that can theoretically be stored as meta data. But a database table will be more stable and significantly faster.

I see, I didn't think about it that way

This will be helpful if I ever think of adding permissions for images

Anything you'll use won't likely have intellisense so it will be like coding blind

imagine using intellisense when coding

let values = collect.values[0]
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading '0')
is there a problem right here ?
sharp geyser
seems like there is nothing at 0
console log collect.values to make sure there is anything in the array
slender thistle
values or values()
pale vessel
__values__()
slender thistle
OwO
earnest phoenix
values or values()
await member.ban({reason: reason, days: 99})
if i want it DON't_delete_any
what should i do ?
in the days ?

Meh
slender thistle
Just don't set the days key maybe

when passing strings to a page in ejs, this is highly inefficient https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/cevexafozo.js
how do i make it more efficient in length
wheat mesa
alright
You’ll have to set days to 0, it defaults to 1 I believe.
(I might be wrong though)

why do you say its inefficient?
earnest phoenix
because of the number of lines it uses
quartz kindle
the number of lines doesnt really affect performance
earnest phoenix
i don't mean it in terms of performance
quartz kindle
but if you want to make it shorter you can put everything in a loop
earnest phoenix
i mean it in terms of the length of the inevitable file
quartz kindle
it would help if your keys are the same as the string youre sending to the translate funcion
then you can just do ```js
const items = ["abc", "xyz", ...]
const obj = {}
for(item of items) {
obj[item] = translate(lang, item)
}
but if you cant make them the same, then you need an object mapping them to each other

You can get it from the banner hash returned on the user object

collect is simply an interaction
it has no values prop
earnest phoenix
it has no values prop
so i need to do
sharp geyser
No idea it is your code
earnest phoenix
collect.values === "4"
wheat mesa
perhaps you should try reading the documentation

sharp geyser
I know this dude did not just try and use values after being told it does not exist
wheat mesa
also, I'm not sure why you're doing type: "SELECT_MENU"
I'm surprised that even works
it should be componentType: "SELECT_MENU"
earnest phoenix
alright
sharp geyser
the collect event on that collection returns an Interaction
this is what an interaction is
wheat mesa
Technically the type is SelectMenuInteraction
So it does have a values prop
When it's undefined, there is no value selected. You need to check if it exists first, then you can do let values = collect.values[0]

Oh he's using a select menu?

use ur brain misty
earnest phoenix
Oh he's using a select menu?
yes
earnest phoenix
i think this incorrect
const collector = interaction.channel.createMessageComponentCollector({componentType: "SELECT_MENU"})
wheat mesa
that's correct according to the docs
sharp geyser
not what the docs say
wheat mesa
unless you're using an outdated version of djs
earnest phoenix
that's correct according to the docs
i used it when i run /help
