yeah
idk i think theres none
yeah i think it should just be sex in my opinion
thats still wrong lol
how are you defining those?
"male" and "female" are terms associated with gender identity, aren't they?
chromosonal
sex
damn i havent seen mine
biologically your sex is either male or female
hmm that isn't true though
ah shit their can be like xxy as well
have u seen yours?
indeed there can
maybe just stop throwing people into boxes lol, i just like the box of "is person" for anyone that is alive and outside of the womb thats the only valid gender
then were done
but then in vitro fertilization would be person on a petri dish 
yeah i get watchu mean
even my labels dont work lol rip i give up
maybe person can be "autonomous alive human"
starting to think this would work
gender is typically considered a phenomenon observed in the world
it's one thing to say we should have a genderless society, but it would be inaccurate to describe our society as genderless
lets just call people "it" so they feel objectified
true everyone gets to share that feel
or just dont refer to people smh
or just dont leave your house and never talk to anyone
wait are people leaving their house? missed the memo 💀
i stg in like 5 years everyone finna be a fat ass mf who dont leave their house
if everyone calls themselves "it", then we also understand that the world is of importance too and objectification will be eradicated and "it" will become the universal pronoun where it encompasses all genders under one umbrella, be it animals, humans, toys, trees, and butterflies
we have school in 15 days
I have school tomorrow
and nobody in the school are finished with their notebooks
I've been social distancing before it was cool and im not fat 
lmao
hell, 30% didnt even use any notebooks
ive had school for about 2.5 months
I'm angy
its a joke
who updated the Windows emoji
im still wondering how i did not get fatter in 1 and a half years aka Covid pandemic
it looks better smh
wait its 2 yrs now almost
no
im still skinny i need to bulk
hm, I don't like talking to people my age, but I don't get tired hanging around with people I like
so that would make me not an introvert, but im not an extrovert
cuz ur young so the damage u do to yourself with carbs wont be apparent yet
im 15
look at how awful these look
I'm 14
This is beautiful oh my god
I mean IRL
wtf.
wtf
ofc lol
what kind of disgusting things are those
is this a meme or do people actually like these
and why do yu have them
It’s not a meme
banned
like I have a hard time thinking people actually like them
dawn your a mod now
yooo just wait till 30 thats where the health up keeping game begins @cursive agate 
when do i get these
Pray that it's never
apple emojis are best
is that on windows
no apple got rid of my 🔫
Sadly
ah oki the current update will do it
thats android emojis
I miss these 😔
so 1 restart and i get em
oh ur on win11?
its literally apple's fault that we have popo 🔫
I'm on Windows 11, yes
win11 🤢
ubuntu
if they ever force it on me, i will forever switch to ubuntu
tbh Windows 11 isn't that bad
now i use windows for gaming and browsing and ubuntu for programming
the only thing I really hate is these emoji
bro emoji good
no.
I've managed to make gta run on linux
i use windows on vm for word lol
I wish we could install JoyPixels on Windows
i think w11 looks p good actually 
although people were saying that it does runfine
how
does it run smooth? also ur specs?
it's super easy
and it runs better than it does on Windows
praise Lutris and Proton GE
ive always heard linux is not very well optimized for gaming but could be false
That is indeed false
Most games will actually run better on Linux than on Windows
yeah the gaming is fine i just dont like the input stuff its super wonky to get my mouse tuned properly lol
ah
The main problem is anticheats who choose not to work on Linux
but that might change in the near future with EAC and Battleye
ngl mouse input is super shit and inconsistent between distros lmao
be a more hardcore gamer
er
yeah DE ig
no i mean they have weird ways to handle acceleration and shit
I bet it's just mouse speed
and the mouse speed is also all over the place
at least on windows i can tune my mouse properly lol
What distro did you pick?
ubuntu
never done wayland but all of x11 mouse stuff I've tried has been hell and i never got it to work how i wanted 
yeah its good
only issues are compatibility
i am ordering a framework laptop soon, ill install ubuntu on it too
other than that its nice
it feels better to game on a windows vm than dealing with Linux mouse settings lol

however its impossible to close your vm when you give it 15gb/16gb of ur ram
my main is always like potato
gtg
i got it working with a script that closes vm on windows shutdown it was fine

but not coming back until mouse settings make some sort of sense lol
yeah i need my mouse to precise whenever i game 
yes
very smooth
Its rated gold on protonDB
AtheistOS
I have an i510400, gtx 1660 super, and 16gb ram
bruh i just install windows and click disable acceleration and the games feel good, idk what numbers and stuff to put on x11 mouse stuff

actually linux is fine literally all my problems are with x11 lmao
lmao
protonGE is bae
anyway fuck you windows for using chkdsk on my linux drive
if windows will corrupt the binaries again, imma nuke my linux distro first and once i graduate, i will nuke windows completely
and reinstall linux
imagine not having dedicated disks for your os

what does pycereal do?
weird windows has never touched disks it shouldnt for me lol

blame windows 11
idk what they added there but fuck
why u on 11

Good Morning ☕!
can someone share me the code of notepad++ stylers.xml file? I messed it up and it doesn't fix after reinstalling 3 times. not sus
can i share a link here? of a server?
you can if it's allowed
no it is not alloweed sed
anyone?
I just realized something weird

what is this
me taking to my crush
hmmmmmmmmmmmm well goodluck. hormones are temporary, next will be pain ;)
i've been in pain yes
this is my 5th try.
not with the same girl, different girls
Do you see them IRL?
you know.... just tell her. but i gtg because i have to study :)
yeah of course
gl! i would if i had the balls too
you dont need balls.
i need courage
you dont need courage. you need honesty and sincerity. just tell her lol. rejection is a good way to learn ;)
oh yes. I just saw a Facebook post that a friend from a few years ago was arrested for stealing from unlocked cars
Tell her "she is the person who you know the most"
Give her a cookie
just ask if she wants to hang out sometime.
true enough, pick a time
yeah, there's a big semantic diff between hanging out and a more date-ish kind of thing
I used to have that problem when I was high school, but at some point, I learned to just tell someone if I like them.
I had that problem until I realized that I really should not be dating
The trick to getting away with this, is you have to make it apparent that if they are not interested, you are not going to be dramatic and incurably upset.
If you can transition from, "If you want to I would be interested in..." to, "Oh, no? That's cool, no problem."
You cant become sad puppy dog.
I'm the type of person to just never say how I feel because I can never trust my feelings 
Word. Well, being aware of that is pretty useful as well.
Also... I looked up a friend who was getting someone to have people on social media mail him letters in prison, and I got curious what he was in there for...
And it was armed robbery.
I used to hang out with that guy.
He always had a problem where he would get drunk and get into fights. So I assumed it was that, like... I assumed he got himself in over his head like he used to when we would go out drinking.
But I thought, "Prison seems like a lot..."
You never know what people are capable of i think
don't do drugs kids 😔
I dont know if it was that or not. It could have been. I havent seen him since I was in high school.
So there is no telling what direction his life went.
He's one of those people where everyone in the city you live in knows him on social media, and if you go out to a club or some place, every single person knows him.
It was so weird to discover that about him/
I guess it's quite depressing that someone goes down far enough to do things like that
yeah
His job was working as a machinist, which isn't a terrible job. It's still a lot of work in shop with dangerous equipment
but it pays alright...
I would have to ask to know why and Im not gonna haha
just finished my english final exam lmao
I feel like I've reached the point where spending more money on my computer is just absurd.
I could upgrade my desktop and not even notice the difference I think.
anyone know how I can change my BIOS's shortcut
its f12 right now, I want to change it to another key
like to enter the BIOS during boot?
yup
where the config settings are @sick olive .
there is no easy way to do that
hmm
is there a tutorial
unless your BIOS has that somewhere in its settings, but I doubt it
You could flash another BIOS, but I strongly recommend against
that's a good way to brick your device
ye im not gonna do that
i remember trying to change my username and the whole OS decided to not work
you heard that right, never again.
im using DELL, Windows right now, is there a way to change my key shortcut to BIOS?
from f12 to something else
I've discovered another Discord Mobile discrepancy
``````
if you see ``````, then you're on Discord for Desktop...
If you see `\` then you're on Discord for Mobile
Why on Earth would you want to do this, though?
There's not going to be way unless:
- You remap the key physically on your keyboard (which very, very few keyboards support)
- You replace your whole motherboard because IIRC that is where the keys are defined
Does anyone know julia
bonjour
Just need help with this error Ive been receiving
whats the error
It's fairly simple im just trying some stuff out
Just saved it and still the same
It works for getting the inverse of the matrix, but when I type det, it doesnt show
Yeah I looked into their documentation
julia> using LinearAlgebra
julia> A = [7 -6; 9 -7]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
7 -6
9 -7
julia> det(A)
5.000000000000006
Weird, why isn't it working for me in vscode
if you see them, then you are haunted
hmm i see
im using DELL/Windows right now
any way to change the shortcut
Not any reasonable way, no. You still have yet to explain why you'd want to do such a thing
Woops, I needed to call using LinearAlgebra first (like run it seperately)
Thanks @solid prawn
np
well ive realized that anyone who has access to my computer could bypass windows's password, so i dont want them to know how to access my BIOS
this wont really work but hiding where the real shortcut key is will somewhat help + long password
How does access to the BIOS bypass password...?
im unsure what he did but it needed access to BIOS
Reset the password or reset the computer
because a vulnerability like that definitely isn't supposed to be possible
There's nothing Windows-specific in the BIOS
you can't mess with the Windows unless you have access to Windows
I have my doubts.
He used an external OS to do this btw
The situations are:
- Your computer is flawed
- You don't know the whole situation
- Your uncle is some hacker
- most likely
- based
Deleting those messages is quite annoying, frankly
¯_(ツ)_/¯
but what you're asking to do isn't going to be possible
Even if you disable the shortcut
there are plenty of other ways to access the BIOS
and that's not accounting for the fact that all your data is on a hard drive
and it won't spare you of anything
I refuse to believe that what you say is reasonably possible
Access to the BIOS will do you next to none because it's not even required for you to be able to install another OS onto the hard drive
that can be done with just the one time boot menu
Windows isn't going to let you just reset the password with some magic access to the BIOS. It's my bet that your uncle simply reinstalled Windows by wiping the drive
all the data was intact
no data was lost, the drive was encrypted.
2 accounts, admin, user.
dad used user but forgotten the password to admin
@oak hemlock
he bypassed it, unsure how
A reset of some kind would have had to have been in place
and it was likely just resetting the admin user
all the data is on the user account
the admin account is just for running things with elevated permissions, for the most part
how did he change the admin account tho
and how can i not allow that to happen to my laptop?
lol if someone reset your admin password, it'd do next to nothing
@solid prawn you have become a mod
the ranks of poop have risen to one of the highest positions
please dont poopify us
also congrats
thank
Frankly, if you're this worried then you can just encrypt your hard drive
imagine not encrypting your hard drive
What you're trying to do won't help you in the long run
the PC was encrypted
You're definitely a bit over paranoid about the wrong things
ok nvm, i realized my mistake
even if he changed the admin account, he cant access my information on the main user account
If they have the password that it's encrypted with, then that's how they have access to the entire drive
I know this wasn't for me, but yes 🙃
my bad, good convo tho
lmao felt that
u r a mod now-
but still, if someone could change the admin account, isnt it a vuln since he could change the config? im pretty confused with how windows account works
the PC's settings
yep
you can reset the entire computer from the BIOS, it's not really a vulnerability
So I don't know if I should use SQLAlchemy or manual database operations like a big girl
SQLAlechemy or SQLite is good enough
ready made, tested, used irl
it is pretty much impossible to change the admin password from the BIOS
I mean, you could swap the password store
i see, so my information its still encrypted even if the laptop's config is changed
but I really doubt your BIOS can do that
if it is encrypted it is 100% impossible
I mean like... your data would just be completely gone if someone wiped the drive
very based, thanks guy, never thought i could have this sort of convo in a p.language server
yes, im aware of that, i dont want to get access to my PC, thats all
but if it's encrypted, then you have the assurance that even if they try to read the data... they're not going anywhere unless they have the decryption key
IMO everyone should encrypt their hard drive
whenever it is password or physical key based
tbh I didn't encrypt my drive because transferring stuff from Windows was becoming a pain
can't do that if it's encrypted
also you can still encrypt it, although it takes a hot minute
unless I'm misremembering what happened
I'm having trouble figuring out where most of my disk space is going to

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Facebook_outage lmao there is a wiki page
On October 4, 2021, at 15:39 UTC, the social network Facebook and its subsidiaries, Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp, Mapillary, and Oculus, became globally unavailable for a period of six to seven hours. The outage also prevented anyone trying to use "Log in with Facebook" from accessing third-party sites.During the outage, many users flocked to ...
damn
hmm, is there a popular website I can use as an example that will only be served from the US or something?
I want to do a traceroute and shows it goes through many AS
Hey @quasi hill#6000 is this even possible?
wat
that's... awkward lol
hey @limber scaffold, can I somehow get the list of AS that my request goes through to get a certain host?
tfw youre at work and people ask you to actually do work
i just found an issue with the bot
what if someone searches an inappropriate term using the wiki command?
do you have censorship against that?'
like?
idk?
wiki isnt really NSFW, they have their own moderation and i would assume its decent enough to rely on
?
did you find an nsfw article or something
where is this concern even coming from
yo i wanna ask a question about discord perms
can i have two threads in one channel but give write perms in only one thread ?
Makes me wonder if you really want a thread in this instance
doesn't make much sense to me
dont wanna make a whole new channel
then what's the point of the thread? lol
?
because it almost sounds like that's exactly what you'd want
Threads are kind of meant to be spontaneous and have the same sort of permissions throughout all of them
Maybe just some gov website? Select some CIA or FBI website to make it interesting. XD
Popular websites tend to have multiple servers. Media websites might be more local but idk if some US-based media count as 'popular' in Europe
having a constant thread with different permissions is probably not an appropriate use of them
and would be better suited towards a channel
hmmm so u can't set any perms in threads itself
ok
And what if someone just writes inappropriate stuff, without bot?
It's the same - they just get reported and mods clean it up. As simple as that
personally I have no clue. If it's not obvious, then my guess is that it's not possible
Even if it was, I'd not suggest that format
it just doesn't make a whole lot of sense
oh ok
Threads are still messages in the same channel, just in easy-to-follow format
hmm k thx
at least name ur drives damn
new volume is a beautiful name
thank you
haters gonna hate

I just learned about DNS reflection attack. Interesting. I think I heard about it before, but I didn't remember it
lol what a stupid attack
wow
stupid indeed, close to zero cost to accomplish and stupidly effective
my ssd has been named samsung-whatevernumbers since 2011 
self respect -69
good thing that they all live near my house
so its easy to get revenge
What's stupid about it?
that was embarrassing af
Being a kid sucks sometimes. Fortunately, this type of humiliation drops off significantly as you get older.
We do
you leverage the DNS protocol being stupid to perform a DoS
no we need more Aboo
I could do without more Aboo \😩
How would you redesign DNS to prevent it?
well if I understand correctly, if you submit a failing request it won't answer to whoever submitted the request but another IP?
ye but ur a hater so i don't think this opinion is objective in any way
I think the incoming request has spoofed its origin IP somehow
Writing the wrong return address on a letter.
That's from back in the day when we used to send around paper caried by humans to communicate.
Dang I feel old now 😦
Go back to the old people's home, grandpa
Y mean phising kinda attack?
nah, I think there is a field on the request saying where to answer
As if they'd let me out. The doors are locked.
!otn a grandpa grote
don't type too hard 😔 you might hurt yourself
Akar😔
aboos.add(20)
It's an IP header
It's not DNS-specific
How are you all?
is it? I think here they use a DNS specific field
Good. Better.
That's good
not sure what you mean by IP header
IP is an addressing scheme, not a transfer protocol
coping with loss by doing my usual memeing clowning deal
I mean, a header on the IP layer of the packet stack
can you spoof that?
sounds like things would break if you do, no?
It's just that the OS usually does it for you
This seems like it's the standard approach in DNS reflection
wait this confuses me... How do servers know where a request came from and that it's not fake
They don't.
is it not possible to fake like every single aspect of a request?
That's why DNS reflection works
That's the problem: They don'.t
Sure.
It's your PC sending the IP header in the first place
Seems like a standard amplifications attack?
Hello: here's 10 bytes, this is return address.
Response: Okay I'll send 450 bytes to return address.
So I could totally say that a request is from 0.0.0.0 even though it's not... and there's no way to verify that
crazy
pretty much
assuming there is no router in the middle that will detect it is false
also that's why mTLS is a thing
How would it do that?
and why you get rickrolled if you try to access the pydis infra
well, it would know this route doesn't have access to 0.0.0.0, so it doesn't make any sense
Apparently something routers can do is do a routing table lookup on the source IP when a packet arrives, and if the arriving packet didn't arrive on the correct network interface, it's dropped.
But I guess this would slow traffic down?
That would be dns spoofing, which would lead to giving wrong website for correct url, thus allowing spoofing.
As people above your message already said, it's "writing the wrong return address of a letter". Sending dns requests (which are small) with other source address, so response is sent there instead of the attacker. That's why "dns reflection attack". And dns requests are small, while responses are bigger - that's why it's also called "dns amplicitation attack" (you use dns to amplify your ddos bandwidth)
Any protocol is that stupid, actually. Because packets were designed with good intentions in mind and there's some trust involved - mainly the trust that you want your own responses so you will use correct source address...
yeah i mean thats what they do in phishing no? make a small letter change which is usually unrecognizable by user and they just become middle person and serve the website but take data when a request is made and then just make requests with same data to actual site.
DNS spoofing means putting the wrong IP behind a domain name, IP spoofing means putting the wrong source IP address for a network packet. They both involve changing an IP address, but in completely different contexts and for different purposes.
IP is also a protocol, IPv4 packets have their own structure and headers
Right, right
lol
makes sense, I understand thanks @opaque finch
sorry @deep heath i guess I got confused.
You're allowed to get confused. 😛
0.0.0.0 is invalid address. It can be interpreted as subnet address, but it's basically a special name. If anything, use broadcast IP for your subnet
0.0.0.0 is actually mapped to a machine
Same for 127.0.0.1
In case someone mess up really bad
wait? refs?
It would still result in DoS. (D)DoS doesn't have to be valid requests, only enough to make bandwidth or resources to answer used up, so it would be the latter
Blackhole DNS servers are Domain Name System (DNS) servers that return a "nonexistent address" answer to reverse DNS lookups for addresses reserved for private use.
The ARPA maps subnets that should be private to blackhole servers
I mean, any spoofed DNS request that doesn't reach the DNS server would reduce the amount of generated traffic, so I guess it would help somewhat.
It'd be hard to do effective DNS reflection if a high percentage of routers in a network applied source address validation.
Used to be blackhole-1.iana.org and blackhole-2.iana.org, but people messed up their config too bad and they had to create AS112
but i mean DNS requests are also cached on higher level so it would not kinda be that heavy i guess.
the blackhole servers generally answer thousands of queries per second
lol
I stand corrected though, they don't serve 0.0.0.0
also yeah, to look at the other way, DNS requests would be kinda divided as different requests but would still go no?
i mean say
from 100 requests for google.com
to 50 requests for google.com and 50 for g0ogle.com
thats at the end still 100 requests to the DNS server
DNS servers can handle that load
They are made for that
i was implying an example lol, which was trying to say that traffic still stays the same.
just request data changes
Looking forward to your novel, Nicky!
Phishing is in general just saying "I'm from [bank], something happened, give me your data" and hope person doesn't verify it.
It can be connected with other attacks. But it doesn't have to be. And as I said, DNS reflection is NOT the same as DNS spoofing.
Spoofing basically means putting valid but not yours thing somewhere.
Reflection is purely DoS type of attack (generating unwanted traffic that slows down or blocks the service) that involves spoofing in its execution - on the packet level, you spoof (change) source address.
But it's not dns spoofing because you don't spoof dns, you ask a real dns to do something for you (but tell it you're someone else).
Hence wrong return address on a letter analogy.
DNS spoofing is basically as if someone asked you for third person's address and you knowingly give them a wrong one. They have no reason to not believe you. So they themselves write to what they think is that person.
A: "Hi, my grandma's name is [hostname], what was her address?" B (which is a fake dns server or mitm sniffing packets and answering before real dns can do it) answers with wrong IP. -> DNS spoofing
A writes to "grandma".
"Grandma" ask for money -> phishing involved
A sends "hi, I'd like to get address for person [hostname], please write back with info" to lots of (real) DNS servers but puts B's address as return address.
Those DNS servers will send their replies (bigger than A's original messages) to B. -> packets are 'reflected' to different person, hence "reflection", there's also more data than if A just messaged B directly, hence "amplification". Using DNS servers and DNS requests, hence "DNS reflection/amplification"
it's just crazy to me that in the realm of computers it's completely possible to falsify just about everything
we've got the wonderful advantage of us as animals all being different in some regard
hey it's me ur brother
oh yes
I'm totally not falsifying info with my computer trust
Unless you cryptographically sign it.
It's because people who created the Internet were idealists and it was originally a research network... No need to falsify anything when there's only research info or talking. It probably became different when for-profit stuff started appearing
There's much less incentive, statistically speaking.
Unless the root CA is hacked.

Hey, i got busy when you replied but thanks a lot for clarification.!! I just read it right now.
There is a incredibly large incentive to falsify science
Predatory publishing is a massive issue and it's used by a ton of companies and lobbyists and snake oil sellers to make profits by saying whatever it is they're peddling is backed by science.
Yes, but in the 70s when they first connected a few universities it wasn't a concern.
There were no business interests that even had access to the networks.
(or knew what to do with it if they did)
p sure they already had issues going on with asbestos and radiative paint 
What does that have to do with this?
incentive to falsify science was a thing
What does any of this even have to do with spoofing network protocols on the early internet?
convo kinda diverted to falsifying science a few messages above 
Right.

y'know switching back and forth between Linux and Windows has given me some weird feelings
like... nothing feels right anymore
it's very discomforting
things as simple as touchpad scrolling feel so wrong and weird on Windows
hate this feeling lol
lol
making a rich powered git log reporting script to trick my boss into thinking im some sort of genius
rich is so nice to work with tbh
But that's just lying, not spoofing/attacking. We were talking about why basic protocols don't have source verification and stuff
oh, my b then, misread

If not, I'd recommend that you install node and use the cli https://blog.tailwindcss.com/tailwindcss-2-2#all-new-high-performance-tailwind-cli
no frameworks or node
If im using node how would i deploy it though?
Provide the same enviroment to my host?
hmm well thanks
Unless theres a better way ill use node cuz already have it installed
Just curious tho, what would i do if i dont use node?
yep, kk ty
There's a CDN, but it's sloooow because it has to load hundreds of classes you'll never use
oh no... I've landed in unknown territory
$ clang --include-directory 'C:\Users\56mik\.pyenv\pyenv-win\versions\3.10.0\include' --include-directory 'C:\Users\56mik\.pyenv\pyenv-win\versions\3.10.0\libs' .\launcher.c
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'python3.lib'
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1104 (use -v to see invocation)
python3.lib is located in C:\Users\56mik\.pyenv\pyenv-win\versions\3.10.0\libs... did I do something wrong :faint:
hmm
i would usually go the cdn route but i guess ill use node instead, thanks
@oak hemlockI think the libs should go under the -L flag
not the --include-directory flag
Yeah I figure it was something like that but I went the lazy route and made LIB environment variable with that path
❯ clang .\src\launcher.c

^~~~~~
1 error generated.
at least it's progress
tbh idk how people can manage doing this on Windows lol
whats io.h
great question. I have absolutely no clue
bruh
a windows sdk header
Windows and compiling issues what is new
are you doing it in the vs developer prompt
I can't even compile sklearn kekw
yeah, compiling on windows is weird
standard development kit more like substandard development kit amirite
uh... I don't think so
then try that
Wait wtf hsp mod
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Congrats
thanks
you could also just find the paths for the sdk in your filesystem and pass it manually
lol
add that in too !
I am 100% willing to believe this can be pleasant if you do things the intended way with VS and msbuild and .sln files
but that's slow and cumbersome
I think the problem is that i'm using pyenv-win
I don't think so, if you add the folder of the dll to PATH, it should be able to find it
if pyenv-win doesn't give you the dll, then ye, you need sth else
I've got the DLL and it's in PATH but uh
/out:launcher.exe
launcher.obj

mkao
yeah, that's the wrong one
theres another one?
^
run %comspec% /k "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat" /arch=x64
yes, it is awful
oh yes
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
lol
I truly don't envy anyone who does this for a living
it isn't too bad, but there is just a lot to figure out that works a bit counter intuitively due to just how old the workflow is
oh hey, it worked
Why are all the commands so large D:
damn
cmp cpfmvsbctvb ax64
Hm
it's just running a bat file in a specific location
actually I'm very confused now at what I'm supposed to do
For a fully standalone distribution, you can distribute the launcher with your application appended, bundled with the Python “embedded” distribution. This will run on any PC with the appropriate architecture (32 bit or 64 bit).
this is from https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipapp.html
whatchu building hon
Just wanted to test if I can use zipapp to make a standalone .exe
it's not going terribly well
although the launcher did compile
o
I thought you literally just combined the files into one lol
some wizardry I thought
the thought of python with anything .exe terrifies me
i usually just use c# for stuff haha
hassle free
oh no
Python runs on clr now
Pyjion
Its a drop in replacement for 3.10
So with that, wouldn't exes be much easier
And it supports c modules too
Like cython or numpy
pretty sure that's correct. You can prepend arbitrary data to a .zip file and if you have __main__.py in a zip archive, python can run it
so the launcher just runs Py_Main with the zip+exe file
wait did I do it backwards
Pfft
exe, then the zip file is the correct format I think
oh \🤔 that did not work
lol this is very confusing
I tried combining the files in both orders
combine it the third way
❯ .\Test3.exe
ResourceUnavailable: Program 'Test3.exe' failed to run: An error occurred trying to start process 'C:\Users\56mik\PycharmProjects\pythonProject\Test3.exe' with working directory 'C:\Users\56mik\PycharmProjects\pythonProject'. The specified executable is not a valid application for this OS platform.At line:1 char:1
+ .\Test3.exe
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~.
how are you combing the files?
Get-Content .\src\test_app.pyz, .\launcher.exe | Out-File .\Test3.exe
I also tried using type in cmd
right
in cmd, do
copy a.exe final.exe
type file.pyz >> final.exe
type with multiple files also doesn't work like cat
well... it didn't given an error but it also didn't do anything
well it gave an error but idk how to check the code
it does the same thing
huh
okay wait I might've done something wrong alone the way
I redid it in cmd
Fatal Python error: init_fs_encoding: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding
Python runtime state: core initialized
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
Current thread 0x00006af4 (most recent call first):
<no Python frame>
there was more but idk if it was relevant
eh here it is anyways: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ogiribozun.sql
actually I've realized that the error only appears in cmd
in PowerShell, it just exits abnormally
this is usually b/c it can't find stdlib
i assume '.\\lib', is pointed to correctly
like somethimg screwy with sys.prefix, or where the exe is located (which can influence where it looks for its libraries I think?)
an HRESULT?
In PowerShell, that is the error code I get from running ./final.exe
there's no error message unlike in cmd
which is the above
Why are you using pyenv on windows
because I like it 
You already have the py launcher
it seems to be STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND possinly
oh no
I'd prefer the py launcher over pyenv
I like being able to easily install
granted that I hardly do
ikr
I wonder if it's that I need to combine the "embeddable" distribution of Python
but I have no idea how this works
so, I mostly got it to work, IDK why it doesnt work on your end, I did it with the py launcher, but python doesnt seem to recognise the zip as a zip and complains about the exe not being a proper file
SyntaxError: Non-UTF-8 code starting with '\x90' in file C:\Users\adamh\pyzmess\final.exe on line 1, but no encoding declared; see http://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ for details
just get the embeddable zip from python's downloads
unless you need a full install
yes, I've done that
and idk what to do with it lol
oh hey
that worked
I mean like
using the py launcher version of Python
> final.exe
Hello, world!
Converting a Python script to an exe without external tools
I doubt this one is standalone
but idk how I'd test that lol
send it to someone without python
yeah, this way it is not standalone
it relies on python3.dll on path
if you want not that, I think just placing the final.exe into the embeddable zip next to the .dll there should work
Would I not be able to just... add the dll to the exe like I did with the .pyz?
no, the dll also has links to the other files python needs
even pyinstaller just is a self extracting archive
hello
but I'd still like to be able to make a self-containing zip app with this method
unless I misunderstood the zipapp page
For a fully standalone distribution, you can distribute the launcher with your application appended, bundled with the Python “embedded” distribution. This will run on any PC with the appropriate architecture (32 bit or 64 bit).
This part specifically
so there's not a way to make a single exe out of this?
and what are the caveats to that?
its a worthwhile exercise imo
it is slow to start up
would the executable have to contain the zip archive in a data section?
might be easier to not zip it
well
The interesting thing is that I have made a program that I could distribute without someone needing to install Python
granted... I'm basically making them install Python to a single directory in a loose way of speaking
I guess packing it into a single .exe wouldn't really help with that
other than to make it look nice lol
if you want to turn the whole thing into a single executable, 7z has sfx for this purpose, see
https://superuser.com/questions/42788/is-it-possible-to-execute-a-file-after-extraction-from-a-7-zip-self-extracting-a
I think I will get an aneurysm soon.
- I deleted my ssh private keys
- I just realised how much one of my teammates copy-pastes one codeblock at a time... and better yet the copy pastes are of amazing quality with massive errors
It feels like handling the stress created by others is greater than just the stress of the project by itself 🥲
F
ye, that's the hard part of a team project
I'm thinking how this can be possible without writing some C (or go, or rust)
well, you need to interface with the python C API somehow, unless you go the embedded zip route and just use python.exe
python would have to be initialized, seems like, and be told how to find the stdlib modules?
the embedded zip route means the finished product isn't executable without a python installed, i guess
the embedded zip route means shipping python with your app
then you could just do
@ECHO OFF
REM run.bat
path\to\python -m my_module
seems like if you allow a directory for distribution, you could have python.exe be your entry executable, and add the calls to your main module (and whatever else) by adding a sitecustomize.py
ah, that's true, hadn't thought of a batch file
yeah, you could also add a .pth file to the proper location IG
condolences 🫂
if that will also let you specify an entry point (or even command line) how awesome would that be
yeah, it can do entry points
RIP didn't realize I was in off-topic
ah yes... I broke cmd with 7z
y'know I'm perfectly fine with just sticking my executable in the embeddable Python folder
Hello, is this a modified discord client?
Yeah
Would you kindly not post images showing that you are breaking discords ToS?
Sure, sorry about that.
No worries. Since we are a partnered server gotta keep it clean
actually
Which part of TOS is that again
I could swear I remember reading it... but I can't find this section
I mean, this is in Better Discord's FAQ:
- Is this against the terms of service?
Yes. BetterDiscord violates Discord's terms of service by modifying the client, although there is no evidence that discord either cares or takes actions against users who modify their client. Your account is not at risk for simply using BetterDiscord alone. Abusing the service or using plugins which further violate the Terms of Service can get your account terminated, however. All plugins from our official website are safe.
Hi :D
I think I found it
You agree not to (and not to attempt to) (i) use the Service for any use or purpose other than as expressly permitted by these Terms;(ii) copy, adapt, modify, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, license, sell, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, stream, broadcast, attempt to discover any source code, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise exploit the Service or any portion of the Service, except as expressly permitted in these Terms
although
this does have me wonder if there's a sort of "loophole" to this
in that one doesn't modify Discord... but one modifies electron
That'd be allowed technically, right? \🤔
Hm
At that point though, is it really worth it?
The client is electron though
okay here's what I'm saying
You can run Discord on a browser, right?
modify the browser, basically lol
and tailor it specifically to Discord
Lmao
fun idea, nothing but
If there is a will there is a way
I mean it'd be interesting to say the least
and it's worth pointing out that lot of problematic Discord things are because of electron
I really haven't had a lot of issues with discord oddly enough
sooo if someone were to "fix" Discord by using an in-house electron... there's merit in that, I'd think. All while not breaking TOS
Maybe I'm not a power user though
Well, I'm sure you say this as a privileged Windows user
Well yeah
so yeah
Smh JavaScript amiright
Its my home PC and can run VMs (plus with WSL whats the point)
true
well, I mean like... what if one made it possible for blocks to actually do something other than add a fancy button
dunno how one would do that... lol but I'm sure it 's possible
ugh i got $4800 grant by the state but my college only gave me 3100 of it to cover tuition
I have to pay 600 out of pocket 
huh what's happening to the $1700 then?
oh hey. my exe isn't flagged as a virus
I mean yeah. You can make extension for it. Which would well modify atleast css? For the fun of if.
I think that'd definitely be considered client modification
That would?
damn thats like an achievement

windows smartscreen would disagree
it runs without smartscreen
even though I didn't sign it
unless I missed it
or it knows that I am the one who compiled it
smartscreen will yell at you about unsigned exes generally if you download them from the internet
but you can safely bypass that
there is a different warning when windows defender detects a virus, and that one is much harder to bypass
so then probably since I didn't download over the net, it's not angy
ye, I think windows tracks the origin of executables
time to find some willing targets to propagate my notavirus.exe
just kidding I'm too lazy for that
I'll pretend it works flawlessly and that I know what I'm doing
that was a fun project
Discord just gave me a subgif 
what da hell is a sub gif
no clue. i just emailed them about it
you're in the US?
you going to college in some time?
psst your hopes are only relevant if you're actually applying
Has anyone ever taken a real stab at updating the Jargon File after 2003?
damn idk what to do, what should i do
Redoing this, I mean
sorry was on a call
i'll add that you don't have to do college right after hs either, or ever, at all if you don't want to
have you taken SATs/ACTs?
I've not done either. All I have are two PSATs
your classmates haven't been applying and stuff?
pfft. my classmates don't care about college
They all just want to be done with school
And then what
bruh I'm hoping I get grants that cover above 80% of my costs
My gpa right now is around 3.7+
I don't ever care enough to question them
ok - i'd advise not to just 'go with the flow' and follow what your classmates do or don't do. make sure to do the research of whether a college education would benefit you specifically
and your goals
I guess it's hard because I really do not know what I want to do and frankly I'm demotivated when it comes to just about everything
it's just annoying because once upon a time I did have a bunch of goals
you don't have to share if you don't want to, but what happened to them? and were they short term or long term?
let's say long term is.. 1+ years
and whether someone realizes it or not, they are already on some sort of trajectory. so your actions or inactions now will compound and further you on that trajectory as time goes on
that can work both for and against you
I guess I just started doing terrible in school around the time COVID hit and over time I just didn't see any interest in much of anything after that
I was forced out of the school I was going to because of that
idk, I can't really say for sure what my goals were a few years ago... I just know that I've already burnt myself out trying to reach them
sorry to hear that
but you're still in some sort of hs at the moment?
I am
