You know Encyclopedia etymologically means circle of learning right?

[harsh tundra]

Not "circle of", encyclo means "in the circle", because in Greece the youth was taught in the circle - in a group around a teacher.
I literally already gave you explanation that encyclo was a direct translation from enkuklios 🤦

And not "learning" but childrearing/education of children

παιδείᾱ

[hexed sierra]

so encyclopedia almost translates to human centipede

[harsh tundra]

Lol

[jaunty wraith]

Wikipedia, the free online human centipede

[hexed sierra]

please otn the clause after the comma

[quasi blaze]

Doesn't mean "cycl" is a word.

I said it is an etymon

[jaunty wraith]

!otn a free online human centipede

[royal lake]

:ok_hand: Added free-online-human-centipede to the names list.

[harsh tundra]

It's not

[jaunty wraith]

what does the cycl etymon, if it is one, come from?

[quasi blaze]

It’s in “bicycle” , “cyclone” and “cyclops”

[harsh tundra]

Please link me a reliable source listing it as etymon

[quasi blaze]

How is it not an etymon

[jaunty wraith]

the etydex doesn't say it is

[harsh tundra]

Nope. First has full root word cycle
Then you have cyclo that comes from cycle

[harsh tundra]

Cycl- exists only as a prefix that comes from prefix cyclo-, for when it's put before a vowel

[quasi blaze]

Wew everyone dog piling on keezy

Sometimes the exception is more like the rule

[quasi blaze]

So “Hydr” is not an etymon also?

[eternal depot]

No; that's a Pokemon

[tardy rain]

Theres no pokemon named that

[young shoal]

hydr is not a pokemon

[tardy rain]

Theres a hydreigon

[eternal depot]

Clearly you're not familiar with gen13

[young shoal]

🤨

[harsh tundra]

Hydro- is a prefix. Hydr- is again a shortened prefix for when a word to which you want to add it already starts with a wovel.

"Hydro" as a word actually comes from the prefix! Because depending on context, you could just ditch the long root word. Like hydroelectricity -> in the context talking about electricity, power plants, etc, you'd just say "hydro" and everyone would know what you mean.

[jaunty wraith]

hail hydra

[eternal depot]

[jaunty wraith]

jason doesn't sound like a warrior name

[tardy rain]

Jason of the Argonauts doesnt sound like a warrior name?

[young shoal]

Argonauts or something

[eternal depot]

Well the prefix of Keesy is Ke- which is nonsense. And the prefix of enraged is en- which is a unit of measurement.

Therefore KeezyEnraged is a nonsensical unit of measurement

[jaunty wraith]

who are argonauts

[quasi blaze]

So I suppose I wasn’t posting any etymons this whole time then

[quasi blaze]

The prefix “Tele” means to or at a distance so if you have never read of heard of a word before that starts with that prefix, you already know that word would have something to do with distance

Examples:

televangelists
teleshopping
telegraphic

[young shoal]

did you even read what I wrote

[quasi blaze]

You said it’s a not a thing but that doesn’t mean you can’t know meaning of some words that way

If someone know what “scope” means and what “tele” means, they would know right away what “telescope” means if they haven’t heard of that word before

[young shoal]

sure, it works sometimes

but you don't know if it works unless you know the exceptions

[tardy rain]

It works if you know all the words

[eternal depot]

Today you learned node.js is broken?

[tardy rain]

Its fine, just dont add arrays

[thick osprey]

It does exactly what I should have thought it would do. Yet I'm still giggling with entertainment.

[stark prawn]

yey type coersion

[fringe rain]

how 😭

i dont understand the logic behind that operation and its design

[graceful basin]

• is string concatenation, so it gets coerced to string on either side and concatenated

[stark prawn]

it can also be number addition

[graceful basin]

Yup

[stark prawn]

or coorceon to a number (both +"" and +[] result in 0)

[graceful basin]

Not the best decision

That's unary + at least

Raku and Lua do better here, + is always addition, and ~ or .. do string concat

[stark prawn]

php uses . for concat

[fringe rain]

ohh

[acoustic moss]

julia uses * 🥴

[fringe rain]

so when the two things arent integers it becomes string concat

[stark prawn]

because of this you can write all of js with just 6 different characters

[, ], (, ), !, and +

👍

i love react

[stark prawn]

thats just plain js

[glossy niche]

nah, this constructs a new array, js lets you append things without copying the array

[stark prawn]

try it in plain js, you'll see it works

[tardy rain]

Theres no extend method

Spreading is how you would extend in vanilla js

[glossy niche]

oh thats what you meant, it does work ofc, i just meant that this is the preferred way to do it in react

[stark prawn]

anyone of you ever used the empty slots for arrays? I always found those to be odd

[glossy niche]

all js arrays r just associative arrays lol

[tardy rain]

Its kinda the only way to do it in react

They use identity checks when deciding if state has changed

[glossy niche]

some state managers actually let you mutate

i think some newer versions of redux let u mutate in react

[tardy rain]

useState doesnt tho, gotta be careful

eg you cant setState(arr.sort())

Will not work

[glossy niche]

during my grad project i had one of my team mates ship me a PR with with state mutations after he claimed he was good at react and i immediately declined the pr

[stark prawn]

I didn't get into webdev untill after the react days

[glossy niche]

i was in middle school when react dropped so uhhhhhhh

[graceful basin]

You can use the immer Library

[harsh tundra]

I don't dabble in any js... And that includes ts stuff. Because I had to use AngularJS elements at some point and I don't want to touch any js or js-adjacent thing since then

[uneven pine]

Which is reasonable

JS is in general bad and pretty much irredeemable

[thick osprey]

I think it's hilariously fun.

[glossy niche]

js sucks but I think ppl complain about it too much

[tardy rain]

I wish i could work on the js parts at work some more

[tardy rain]

Something something only two kinds of programming languages, the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses

[harsh tundra]

I hate on js a lot. All the time. But I know that most websites use it and we can't just get rid of it + if someone actually knows it, it means they have magical powers (had such person in my group at uni). Basically black magic and must've sold your soul. I respect the skill.
Still hate the lang tho

[graceful basin]

Angular was historically uniquely terrible tbf

[tardy rain]

I think i'd rather hate unreasonable business demands/requests and requirements forced on me for no reason

[graceful basin]

I admire JS peeps for constantly innovating on UI making

Only language where UI making didn't feel like a legitimate usecase for a UML diagram or PHD bait.

[glossy niche]

oh no i didnt mean that, i meant that most of the weird stuff like concatenation and stuff can just be solved with a type checker, not even TS, just some JSdoc

[quasi blaze]

I thought “problemo” was an acceptable answer

There’s feminine and masculine words in Spanish. Like “Roja” and “Rojo” for Red for instance so I don’t see how my answer is a typo

[glossy niche]

duo lingo sucks so fucking much at dealing with gender man

90% of my mistakes are just gender

i feel like giving ppl excercises to remember gender is stupid, it feels like the kind of thing that should be learned passively, via reading, not actively, via exercise

[tardy rain]

Google says problema is masculine but is an exception which is why it ends in -ma

[hearty violet]

least insane javascript code

[hearty violet]

words of greek origin in romance languages tend to conserve their greek genders

problema is a greek word, therefore it's masculine even though it ends with A

[thick osprey]

True. Still made me cackle.

[glossy niche]

in arabic, the gender can change the meaning of the word

tahan = verb that means "grounded"
tahini = fem direct object for that verb, means the condiment
tahin = male direct object for that verb, means flour

(just adding based on the languages i know lol)

[tardy rain]

Its not masculine in greek tho

Its neutral

το πρόβλημα

Casual spanish L

[hearty violet]

romance languages aka latin neutral collapsed into masculine a long long time ago

so Neutral = Masculine

[tardy rain]

Thats weird

[hearty violet]

it's just how it goes when a language is around for 2000 years lol

[tardy rain]

Just have neutral gender, whats the problem

[hearty violet]

but yeah neuter got absorbed by masculine and genders died out in favor of prepositions

[glossy niche]

tbh this is better

[hearty violet]

idek how would that work at this point lol

[glossy niche]

decoupling :3

[hearty violet]

also grammatical gender doesn't really make sense

so idc ig

[glossy niche]

yeah, it doesnt

it makes german suck a lot more

even tho most of the time u can just ignore it, but apps like duo lingo and pedants like to stick to it

[tardy rain]

Too late now, should have been built better literally

[glossy niche]

in arabic, to make a noun female, most of the time u just add ة

to the end of it

tho id rather just use neuter, we dont have that in arabic

usually masc is used instead of neuter

[hearty violet]

honestly I have a big beef with german, they say its "logical" but to me its very chaotic lmao

[glossy niche]

it does have some nice structures to it here and there

usually they use time then place

for example

ich will am sonntag im park grillen " i want to grill at the park on sunday"

but most spoken german doesnt seem to follow this

[hearty violet]

duolingo kinda sucks tbh
I feel like just jumping straight into it without knowing much about the language will slow u down greatly

[glossy niche]

everytime a friend sends me a meme in german, its a mashed up sentence

[glossy niche]

yeahhh it falls off real fast but the thing is, its really good at gamification

but the exercises suck

that app is a game not a learning app lol

also, i fucking hate how linear it is

[hearty violet]

what I don't like with german is that gender has very intricate rules for guessing them
and word order varies greatly depending on what word u choose

in the languages I know word order is much more fixed

[glossy niche]

learning is a tree, not a line, learn from every game with a technology tree ever ffs

[glossy niche]

yeah the gender thing just sucks

discord has 40 chars for pronouns in bio but those arent enough for like 2 pronouns in german

die/deine/ihre/seine/siev iasnsfp iasnfip [oasdjkfg oiasji nsaig nag

[hearty violet]

cases are a bitch

I'm glad romance languages (except romanian) lost cases tbh

[glossy niche]

uhh what exactly are cases here

[hearty violet]

genetive case, dative case, whatever whatever

[glossy niche]

hmmm

english doesnt have this right?

[hearty violet]

there's remnants of it

like to whom

vs who is

[glossy niche]

In grammar, the dative case (abbreviated dat, or sometimes d when it is a core argument) is a grammatical case used in some languages to indicate the recipient or beneficiary of an action, as in "Maria Jacobo potum dedit", Latin for "Maria gave Jacob a drink".

[hearty violet]

the who here is a case technically

[glossy niche]

thats kinda useful tbh

whom as a recipient of an action is informative

[hearty violet]

most languages that used to have cases seem to still have remnants here and there

[glossy niche]

i see dative a lot in german and its weird asf

[hearty violet]

in languages like portuguese and spanish you have tu fuiste fue para ti

[glossy niche]

tho not that hard, but unusual for the english speaker

[hearty violet]

the tu and ti here is remnants of the old latin cases

[glossy niche]

idk if we have this in arabic, its too different to be compared to english toe to toe

words in arabic are veryyyyyy different

[hearty violet]

I don't know much about arabic besides the fact that it has an interesting grammar system

[glossy niche]

its a semitic langauge

words in it are composed from a root

[hearty violet]

yeah I'm aware, but I'm fairly ignorant to it

[glossy niche]

which is basically a bunch of consonants

and you give it meaning by picking which vowels to put around them

[hearty violet]

my favorite language (don't kill me plz) is japanese, at least for grammar

[glossy niche]

fun fact: arabic didnt not have diacritics until relatively recently (like 100s of years ago)

so before that, the words "count" and "casterate" were written the same

our arabic teacher once told me a story about someone sending his worker a letter telling him to "count the goats"

but since its written the same as "casterate"

¯_(ツ)_/¯

sooooo thats how diacritics were added

before diacritics, all those are the same word

they have the same consonants, but no vowels, the diacritics are the vowels

[hearty violet]

that's fucked up

[glossy niche]

i like to mess with ppl when they dont add diacritics and i intentionally misspell the word

[hearty violet]

japanese also has this tbh

but not that bad

and usually they're written differently and sound different

they look exactly the same if you write in hiragana

[glossy niche]

i tried jp on duo lingo but 🤮 they have improved the course a lot but it still sucks the rear of end of a horse

[hearty violet]

but if you use kanji it's different

[hearty violet]

lmao

[glossy niche]

kanji just sucks

[hearty violet]

I got my start with japanese on tae kim's grammar guide

[hearty violet]

once u get stockholmed u learn to love it

[glossy niche]

tbh i just wanna learn it cause i consume a lot of japanese music

kinda picked up german partly because of rammstein lol

[hearty violet]

I was learning german but got fed up

I can't get motivated by languages that there's no music in it I like

[glossy niche]

rammstein 👍 if u like metal

[hearty violet]

besides idk maybe rammstein which I wouldn't listen to that often either way

there's no good music

imo

[glossy niche]

i have german speakingfriends so even if i hate it i still can practice it with them

so thats a big advantage

and jp is just cause i consume jp media a lot

[hearty violet]

I like metal, but it's more of a side quest for me, I listen to it every now and then

[hearty violet]

yeah, japan really does produce a lot of stuff

there's a niche for everything

[glossy niche]

https://www.youtube.com/@ShibayanRecords

my fav touhou music circle

they produce a wiiiiiide variety of stuff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rB7XFQgJHBI

their most iconic song:

the comfiest song to ever exist

[hearty violet]

japanese bossa nova sounds so weird to me as a native portuguese speaker lmao

[glossy niche]

never met a portu speaker before, interesting

[hearty violet]

they have that song, u know the one :P

[quasi blaze]

My Venezuelan co-worker said there’s genders to words in Spanish because it flows properly in the sentence you are speaking

it showed the other one first

now the preview is this one

but yeah I like these chill japanese songs

I also like city pop way too much idk why

[glossy niche]

oh that

it is great

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEQZNRT6Pqk

psyqui is also great imo

they have some chill stuff and some non chill stuff

[hearty violet]

sounds cool

[glossy niche]

btw

do u have any good resources to learn JP if you consume a lot of audio? i have no intention of reading JP

unless its romaji ofc lol

[quasi blaze]

Think about it

The table is expensive – La mesa es cara (“mesa” is a feminine and singular noun)

So you say “cara” (which is feminine) instead of “caro” (which is masculine) because mesa is a feminine word. So you say cara to make the sentence flow.

[hearty violet]

I don't really consume a lot of audio unless music counts ig

[hearty violet]

no, you say cara because caro meaning expensive

nothing makes it less nice to say "lo meso es caro" simply that's not the words used by the language

also there's nothing about "sounding better" in it, spanish is a language that has been evolving from latin for millennia, it naturally uses constructs based in latin and latin does things the way it does cause of it's antecessors, it's not logical

it sounds normal if you're used to saying those words, there's nothing more to it

[quasi blaze]

Meso is not a Spanish word

[hearty violet]

I'm aware

[quasi blaze]

So that defeats everything you just said

You’re using an example that doesn’t exist in the language

[hearty violet]

yeah I'm convinced

I'm convinced that keezy either is a big big troll or he really is that neurodivergent

I know it sounds rude, but it's the truth

[quasi blaze]

“Lo meso…” wtf is that

You’re just making shit up now

oh wait thats spanish my bad

[hearty violet]

bruh

[glossy niche]

its a meme pay it no mind

[quasi blaze]

Pick an example that actually makes actual sense in Spanish

[hearty violet]

reread what was said, I have nothing more to say

nothing makes it less nice to say "lo meso es caro" simply that's not the words used by the language

if you lack reading comprehension, I suggest you put in 30 minutes every day to practice reading

[quasi blaze]

If it’s not used by the language, why the fuck would you pick that as an example?

[hearty violet]

you can't even troll right, next!

[quasi blaze]

Your argument lost all credibility

That I didn’t even bother reading the rest of it the first time

[hearty violet]

yeah I'm not aware of that meme but I thought hispanic culture is kinda big bc of how much US media tends to blast it

[quasi blaze]

Can you pick a better example that actually makes sense in Spanish?

I’ll give you constructive feedback in making better counterarguments Raph.

In order for your examples in your counterarguments to hit hard in debates, those examples need credibility and be verifiable; Your Spanish example made absolutely no sense. I don’t know what prompted you to use that. It has no credibility because that’s not how you write Spanish.

Come back when a proper Spanish example that actually makes sense and then your counter argument will have some credibility.

[young shoal]

it is a hypothetical about what it would sound like if the noun was masculine

you can't pick an example that exists because nouns that have gender have one gender

[hearty violet]

why are you wasting your time? he created a strawman so he could "debunk" me and went as far as say my argument was invalid so he didn't even bother on reading the rest of it

[quasi blaze]

Your Spanish made no sense

There’s no “meso” for table

It’s “mesa”

You’re trying to change the spelling of a word where the spelling of that word in Spanish doesn’t exist to fit your counterargument

Why should one be charitable to that?

[young shoal]

do you just ignore things that you can't address

[quasi blaze]

No

[glossy niche]

source?

[hearty violet]

if he just read it instead of going on this huge strawman

but he doesn't value his time

[quasi blaze]

Exactly. This actually helps my initial argument

[young shoal]

no... it makes your argument unverifiable. how do you know it sounds better at all

raph tried to introduce a hypothetical

[quasi blaze]

A hypothetical that will never exist in reality because “meso” isn’t a word in Spanish

[hearty violet]

bro...

[quasi blaze]

I’m not your bro after you used that example

[glossy niche]

disowned 😭

[young shoal]

so? there is no other way to check if the argument is true

[hearty violet]

I'm glad I'm not lol

[quasi blaze]

It’s just how the Spanish language is constructed. If there’s a feminine word in the beginning of a sentence, you use a feminine version of a word at the end. That’s just how it is.

And I think it’s better that way because it remains consistency in the sentence if you use words that are the same gender

[young shoal]

huh? you said it was because of how it sounds

[hearty violet]

[quasi blaze]

It sounds good because of the consistency

[hearty violet]

what my reply didnt work

Not always, there's specific words that're always one way or the other

There's a bunch of American college students telling Spanish natives that their language is "offensive" because gendered words "imply standing"

[hearty violet]

imply standing? standing as in like, social standing?

whats the argument here?

@hearty violet@quasi blaze This is me warning both of you to be respectful. Both of y'all have crossed the line throughout whatever discussion is above and haven't been in line with our code of conduct.

If you can't be respectful and assume good faith in arguments, then it's not an argument to have on this server or with each other.

I get a warning for someone attempting to troll me by miscontruing my argument?

he also repeatedly talks about "debates", debate ethics and fallacies but goes and does this

doesn't seem fair to me, but sure go ahead

[honest star]

I warned both of you. You are still responsible for your actions and words, regardless of what the other person is saying.

[vale raven]

That's what they were saying
IIRC the examples they used were cars and keys

"cars use the masculine ending so they're viewed as big and manly"
"but keys use the feminine ending so they're viewed as soft and little"
"and that's discrimination and that's not okay"
IMHO, it's a bunch of bullshit, I can barely remember which ending a word uses, much less influence my perceptions of objects

[hearty violet]

👍

[quasi blaze]

I never disrespected the man. Idk what you’re talking about @honest star

[honest star]

I am telling you you have. Particularly this message was unnecessarily aggressive and rude: #ot1-perplexing-regexing message
You have been warned explicitly about following our #code-of-conduct. If this trend continues, you will be banned from this server.

[hearty violet]

it's definitely bullshit
grammatical gender is just grammar, it's only function is to tell u how the sentence is structured

but rationalizations are human's best accomplishment

[honest star]

If you'd like to discuss in detail, then you can DM ModMail.

[hearty violet]

people are very good at adding things after the fact

[quasi blaze]

I gave him constructive feedback

[honest star]

Your feedback was not constructive but was instead aggressive and rude. Re-think how you interact with others if you'd like to stay in this server. If you'd like more of an explanation then DM ModMail.

[quasi blaze]

Sorry that you completely misinterpreted my message once again

[young shoal]

it was definitely aggressive

[glossy niche]

[slim remnant]

if many people think it comes off as aggressive, it probably is aggressive, regardless of whether you actually typed it in good faith or not.

[young shoal]

(😔 you already know what's coming next)

[quasi blaze]

You need examples with actual credibility to substantiate your arguments in a debate. That was constructive

I stand on that.

[slim remnant]

you kind of just missed their point, but I suppose it's sort of moot now; best to move on.

[minor tundra]

A core component of debate is the capacity to communicate and convey ideas effectively. If you find that people are misunderstanding you constantly, it might be time to revise your communication style.

[quasi blaze]

I asked him to rephrase a better example that actually makes sense in Spanish

[vale raven]

Your point is correct, your justification is not.
You match the genera of the verb and the noun(?), but not because it "sounds better", but because the rules say "match the genders".
Which is exactly what @hearty violet was saying, he just made up an example on the spot, and now you're telling him that his argument is invalid because his example on things that don't make sense... doesn't make sense.

You're both in agreement here, unless a word always uses a specific gender, match the genders.

You're just talking past each other

[slim remnant]

they gave you examples after.

[glossy niche]

debate is often useless and just trying to understand what the other person is saying is usually better way to start, debate should be the last resort because it requires both parties to be in sync, think of it as a an elaborate handshake.

[quasi blaze]

All right. Thanks for clearing it up and understanding both sides

[glossy niche]

billy why are you slapping me

[low chasm]

he didn't want to resort to debate

[young shoal]

he's leftward_hand_tone1ing you

[vale raven]

@hexed sierra @dry raft if you're awake, I'd love an RAE link to help me back up my statements

[low chasm]

if you disagree with someone it's easier to slap them than it is to debate with them.

[glossy niche]

tbh that also works

[stark prawn]

Slap them with a glove then dual it out in the ring

[glossy niche]

honestly, i can just accepted that most of the time, debate is not efficient

[granite tree]

hmm, that's deep wisdom. Entering a conversation looking for a debate is (equivalent to?) the same as walking up and slapping them.

[harsh tundra]

I thought it was half of that "elaborate handshake"

I do stand on that when I gave him constructive feedback though. You need credible examples to substantiate any argument you give. That’s constructive feedback and nobody is going to tell me otherwise.

formal and informal logical fallacies are fun, but its like discussing design patterns and monads and shit, very cool in theory but lets be real we dont apply most of those abstract things as much as we would like to

do they not hire anyone who doesnt have ADHD and drops things after working on them for 3 weeks

what if i exorcised you in the google payment circle

That's their policy afaik, just do things and see if it sticks, if not put it on life support until people give up

The ig thing I mentioned was literally what the polls on regular posts looked like.

Don't get me started on gui that pushed reels as main thing, then changed to something that didn't allow nice reel browsing... But only on one account. On the same device I had two completely different ui, one with shittier ux. For a year or more. Then the shitty one became the old one (that the other account had always had) and I could watch reels again

[late orchid]

there are some with their own indexes, typically paid ones like https://kagi.com/, but not sure how much % they cover compared to Google / Bing

I want to kill all mosquitos within a certain range. I think I killed like 10 before coming to bed, then several more... 😭

[glossy niche]

build a mosquito trap with yeast as bait

yeast lets off CO2

they eat it up

we made one and it caught hundreds

[harsh tundra]

I heard of so many methods but I don't trust any, mosquitos seem to prefer my blood over anything else 😭 they don't even bite my partner, my partner ends up only with few bites each season 😭 me? Last year at some time I had like 7 bites on my foot alone, then several more on my calf... And similar number on my other leg.

[rain marsh]

What blood type are you?

[harsh tundra]

But i might try the yeast trap, since it's not some anonymous source telling me about it

[harsh tundra]

Idk, based on parents I'm either A or 0. I guess 0 because my father also complained about mosquitos?

[rain marsh]

That'd make sense

[harsh tundra]

😭

[rain marsh]

Good luck out there

We're having rat problems of our own ☹️

They keep sabotaging our dishwasher

[harsh tundra]

I wouldn't care as much if they let me sleep, but nooo, they gotta buzz near my ears or near my phone if I'm reading something... One night I tried to fall asleep and only used my phone as flashlight to hunt mosquitos when I heard them. According to my watch, I fell asleep after 2am :c

[rain marsh]

Yeah that sounds annoying af

Is there any bug spray you can use?

[harsh tundra]

They stink :x and certainly not using them above my bed.
And I can't really fumigate a room either. It's too big area to spray and then air out (without letting more bugs in) as it's basically living room (hopefully when we renovate and get a real bedroom, it will be easier?). They don't sit in one place, they just notice me in the corner of the room and fly towards me... Not all at the same time either, that's why it's a cycle of almost falling asleep -> hear buzzing -> flashlight -> try to kill it, maybe notice two more and try killing them as well -> try falling asleep

is this linkedin?

linkedin applicant numbers are entirely fudged to get you to buy premium

we do what we must

and we must search for better opportunities

i've started using otta recently

its not as big

but its also not a social media

so it cant turn into facebook the way linkedin has

nifty UI and I think im getting more ads by smaller companies and startups

feels pretty US centric though

lmao

microsoft can afford it

laws need to start taking kneecaps before mega corps start caring

take their kneecaps

theyre right there

anyway otta seems to have an actual functioning "remote" only filter

so thats neat

[solemn tulip]

I'm trying to come up with actual words that fit that, but idk if english even has any

if C and O were flipped you could have ORC

[vale raven]

Do you know if such a word in another language?

[solemn tulip]

not off the top of my head

cro magnon

(arguably not english)

[young shoal]

also not really a word. I think it's - too

no, audit logs can only see what happened in the server and not the text. Based on ToS, no bots can store public text. Also, if the public text got deleted, only discord can see it, they still store the deleted messages but no one else can see except them.

[honest star]

If the deleted messages are still in cache then we can access them. We store deleted messages in a discord channel so it still abides by Discord ToS very easily.

[rain marsh]

Most moderation bots store a log of all messages sent, so once you send it its stored - doesn't matter if you've deleted it. This is not against ToS.

[harsh tundra]

Having on edit and on delete events post to a separate channel is pretty standard for moderation bots - made it clear when someone tries to hide their abusive talk vs when a mod deletes it

youtube UI keeps getting worse

[soft violet]

Yes, well, they're having a tantrum, so you can't expect them to make the best decisions.

at this point I feel like you have to have a special talent to make not only bad but terrible decisions

it's like they're actively trying to annoy u

they're trying to push aside comments so bad

Are these updates region locked

go into incognito

oh wtf

i swear it showed that layout for me last time i did it

If thats how its gonna go then I feel less stupid about a project im currently developing

[hearty violet]

youtube releases updates in batches, it's always been like that

[lament cairn]

A/B testing

yay

i mean thats kinda the point of A/B testing isnt it

if it sucks at least it only affects a small amount of users

[hearty violet]

sure, but all the new UIs they've released are utter garbage

in fact, this one is even worse than the one they showed me last month

so I think they're actually "optimizing" it for shittier experience

[dapper dew]

If its that or 4 hours, probably

I've managed a few 45 minute layovers, but its never a relaxing time lol

Ah goodness. I'm in a work classroom at the moment for GitHub Copilot 101 training. So much build up for how using copilot to write unit tests is a great productivity booster.

typical american be like:

Domino's has stores in over 83 countries and 5,701 cities worldwide.

[solid elbow]

I said "odds"

what percentage of the stores are in the US?

[warped sentinel]

not enough pizzas to feed that many americans

[solid elbow]

there's a stack on the ground

[rain marsh]

the fairly nice weather indicates it's not in the UK

huh, only a bit over 1/3rd of all dominos locations are in the US. That is less than I would've guessed

I'd have confidently guessed more than 2/3rds

[spare oriole]

Dominos is better outside the US tbh

But sometimes you miss the taste of cardboard pizza

was that picture taken right then

[glossy niche]

the area looks like its far out in the wild, which means the trees are likely native there, so if we identify the plants, thatll give us a hint

anyone know what tree that is?

[willow narwhal]

It's probably a northern coast, somewhere in a warm country.

people look Western, I'm guessing US American

[spare oriole]

Yes

[willow narwhal]

That helps a bit. Sunrise at that time:

So.. northern spain?

[small coral]

huh?

[willow narwhal]

Did I miscalculate the UTC offsets? Or that website is a bit stupid?

[small coral]

additional sunlight map for reference later

[small coral]

website changes time zone to wherever you click automatically + probably miscalculated UTC offsets

i find my time zone reliable as a base measurement for the fact that it doesn't do DST

since we're looking at white people here (no offense) it could be

• north UK
• somewhere along australia
• an island (worst case)

o yea this about covers other uncovered areas

[willow narwhal]

Seems way too green for Australia

[small coral]

well i'm not a geoguesser :p

I would guess they invaded an island.

there's also the cloud pattern

australia is huge and biologically diverse

[vocal oyster]

yeah at the coasts it's not just outback lol

[willow narwhal]

I looked at satellite footage in the part where it would match up, seems way too brown

whereas Suriname even had similar trees.. but I don't find that peninsula

i've looked at the eastern part of australia and found green-ish beaches

but i'm quite a lazy person so i stopped looking for it :p

i wonder which clouds match up more

[naive ravine]

[acoustic moss]

?

[naive ravine]

bot's icon

[acoustic moss]

oh

idk

[naive ravine]

Can it be different for each server?

[small coral]

but like- colombia doesn't have a shoreline at the part where it's supposed to be sunrise/*set so iuno :p

[thick ore]

probably not

[acoustic moss]

idk people in #discord-bots probably know

[meager sphinx]

maybe its like in twitch , your bot also needs "nitro"

[naive ravine]

ok

[acoustic moss]

bots have some nitro like features by default i think

like external emojis

[naive ravine]

yes, has

but i need icon!!

[acoustic moss]

idt ive ever seen a bot do that tbh

[naive ravine]

mee6

I wanted to do it only after seeing that

[thick ore]

if you're trying to do something like Dyno:

they are different discord bots

with different pfps

[acoustic moss]

i found a 2y old reddit post and it wasnt possible then at least

[thick ore]

dyno just invites the other bot, the other bot kicks the old dyno

[acoustic moss]

damn

[naive ravine]

where

[acoustic moss]

tough life

[naive ravine]

mee6 is can user upload icon

[thick ore]

what

[naive ravine]

mee6 It is user-customizable

[thick ore]

oh do you mean the custom bot feature

[naive ravine]

icon

[thick ore]

or the "bot personalizer"

[naive ravine]

i don't know icon

[thick ore]

i'm pretty sure you mean the bot personalizer

you can't change your avatar based on the server

[naive ravine]

ok

[naive ravine]

hmmmm

oh no....

[thick ore]

the way it works is that you have the user create a bot, then your bot uses that token

it's kinda complex

[naive ravine]

yes

ok, i know

[fringe rain]

y'all got any show to watch?

[acoustic moss]

axiss

did you watch hotd s2 e1

[fringe rain]

i couldnt finish s1 because.. my site of choice stopped giving subtitles

[acoustic moss]

bruh

[fringe rain]

i cant understand what they're saying

and my speakers are unbalanced so if i increase the volume the boom sfx will hurt my ears

[acoustic moss]

ive been using fxsound

helps with movies and stuff

[fringe rain]

[acoustic moss]

although it makes my ears bleed if i forget to turn it off before listening to music

[acoustic moss]

putting the l in linux as usual

[fringe rain]

i think the L is no subtitles

[acoustic moss]

||thered be subtitles if you watched legit||

[fringe rain]

this is why i stick to kdrama and anime

they've always got subs

anyways

ooo im gonna watch kaiju no 8

i think they're doing a good job on the animation

[low chasm]

it's actually better than I expected

[spare oriole]

it's too expensive and MFW: some of the shows i specifically paid a sub to watch, dont have subtitles

[ruby fox]

If you have a good computer, you can use the openai's whisper to generate subs,

[plucky ridge]

Probably a bit hit and miss, though

[timid latch]

Why would you need a good computer for that? Don't they have a API for it?

[fringe rain]

i had read about 20-40 chapters of the manga, the only problem i had was the "stupid mc" troupe
like bro isnt even stupid or doing anything wrong - its so fucking badass that he can convert into a kaiju, but he's always being looked down upon :/

[low chasm]

yeah I guess that's fair

but that makes it that much cooler when he turns into a kaiju

[ruby fox]

Well you can do it for free cause they have released thier models for free, run in your computer

[fringe rain]

ah yes let me wait while my computer does that and my food gets cold
ive actually used aiitra for this - https://www.aiitra.com/, but that was for making subs for some songs and i needed the timestamps cause i wanted to use them in my amv platformer

[timid latch]

Oh they did? That's cool, didn't know that

[ruby fox]

That's one of the ways how illegal anime sharing platforms get thier subtitles cause they don't wanna spend money

[fringe rain]

yeah, it was really cool iirc

[dense palm]

I meditate too

[solemn tulip]

ez

wonderful timing

[ruby fox]

This week he got arrested 😔 (kaiju lives matter)

[drowsy rose]

dont you love it when the connection to the origin web server was made, but the origin web server timed out before responding. The likely cause is an overloaded background task, database or application, stressing the resources on your web server. To resolve, please work with your hosting provider or web development team to free up resources for your database or overloaded application. Additional troubleshooting information here.

[lament cairn]

skill issue

[drowsy rose]

increased skill is not gonna help me 😭

i just wanna access a website

solution: just go to another website

[thick ore]

what's up pydis

i'm on the penguin OS now

text rendering is ass compared to Windows lol

[snow epoch]

bro im on the polar bear OS

😭

[thick ore]

mac?

[snow epoch]

what?

wait it says windows user

ur not on windows??!!

[thick ore]

i main windows

just trying linux for now

[uneven pine]

Old mac os hada polar bear as their icon

[snow epoch]

oh i was joking lol

[uneven pine]

Old old actually, which was that?

[snow epoch]

linux seems cool

what is the difference between dev firefox and normal firefox?

cuz i heard that dev firefox is better

[thick ore]

firefox developer edition?

[snow epoch]

yea

[thick ore]

devtools

[jaunty wraith]

it's a faster release channel

[uneven pine]

None apparently

I was thinking of snow leopard

[snow epoch]

what are the devtools

[jaunty wraith]

like beta

[snow epoch]

i only use opera when watching anime on sketchy free websites for the vpn

lol

[uneven pine]

That VPN is doing nothing for sketchy sites lol

[jaunty wraith]

ff dev edition used to have newer devtools, but these days there isn't anything new

[uneven pine]

Any free VPN is logging everything you do and selling the data

[snow epoch]

yeah ik everybody talks about opera being a scam or smth

[carmine apex]

free is doing a bit in that sentence, but not much

[uneven pine]

It's not a scam it's just another chrome like every other browser

[snow epoch]

yeah

but its better

[uneven pine]

I use edge cause it's the fastest I've used and that's about it

[snow epoch]

more customizability

yeah i like edge

[uneven pine]

I used to use Vivaldi but it started having issues and got REALLY slow

[thick ore]

same 😃

[uneven pine]

Worse than Firefox slow and Firefox is slow as fuck

[snow epoch]

i like the performance limiter on opera

so then my laptop doesn't explode

from the extra 1mb

lol

[uneven pine]

I use edge on the laptop too. Never had an issue despite it being pretty old

[snow epoch]

i think opera uses maybe like 200gb less than edge

but idk

i haven't tried it out this new laptop i got

[carmine apex]

200 gigabytes less?

[snow epoch]

bruh

[uneven pine]

Homie running 512tb of RAM

[snow epoch]

mb

not gigabyte

lol mb

megabyte
my bad
which one

[uneven pine]

Oh my God

I'm going to always read "mb" as megabyte now whenever people clearly mean "my bad"

Why didn't I think of that before

[signal canopy]

see i always knew edge was inefficient

[snow epoch]

kb
mb
gb
tb
and whats the other one i forgot

[snow epoch]

im lmao now that i re read it

[carmine apex]

there are about 30 or so, but the next-biggest one is petabyte

[uneven pine]

b kb mb gb tb pb eb yb

zb?

[snow epoch]

what is yb?

yodabyte

[carmine apex]

yotta

[uneven pine]

Yottabyte

[snow epoch]

LMFAO I WAS ACTUALLY CLOSE

[uneven pine]

Exabyte

[snow epoch]

i was joking

[carmine apex]

.wiki si prefix

[median dome]

Wikipedia Search Results

Metric prefix
introduction in the 1790s. Metric prefixes have also been used with some non-metric units. The SI prefixes are metric prefixes that were standardised for use

International System of Units
the SI provides twenty-four prefixes which, when added to the name and symbol of a coherent unit produce twenty-four additional (non-coherent) SI units

[uneven pine]

Zetabyte

Googolbyte when you need a lot of data

[snow epoch]

i feel like being a lil skid

[carmine apex]

if anyone needs a googolbyte, everyone else is in severe danger

[uneven pine]

It's actually crazy to think about

[snow epoch]

isn't there that thing u can do to make ur internet suuuuuuupppppeeeer fast

[uneven pine]

When I was a kid, we had like, megabytes of storage lol. I remember the first laptop we had was 160GB

now single hands are bigger than that

Games*

Dude resetting my keyboard was a mistake

[snow epoch]

bro what thats a big game

[signal canopy]

apps just be stupid big these days

gmail on my phone occupies 500MB

[snow epoch]

i wonder how much storage that jedi fallen order takes up. cuz thats prolly the most performance intensive game i've bought

[uneven pine]

We're getting to the point where having a petabyte of storage at home isn't an unthinkable thing

It's still expensive but steadily getting cheaper

[snow epoch]

oh it only takes about like 60gb

[jaunty wraith]

that might be due to your mailbox

[signal canopy]

nah data is like 50MB on top of that

[snow epoch]

bro i got like 500 emails in my inbox

[signal canopy]

it’s just the actual app size

[snow epoch]

i don't read any emails if they arent from like my grandma or something important

mostly just confirmation emails

[signal canopy]

i mean ffs paypal takes up 330MB

paypal???

[carmine apex]

yeah steam says installed size for me is 55

[uneven pine]

15 Grand for a petabyte at home

Right now.

Cheaper in reality, you'd get volume pricing on drives

[snow epoch]

bro what are you gonna store on that?

like apple house data?

[uneven pine]

That's assuming 0.014 USD/GB

[snow epoch]

bro $0.01 for a gb is crazy

[uneven pine]

Which in reality you'd be paying way less if you're buying that many drives

[carmine apex]

for a moment there wolfie, i thought you might've been mentioning how much you paid for a petabyte you already have

[snow epoch]

what do yall think i should make in batch?

[uneven pine]

Nothing

[jaunty wraith]

nothing

[snow epoch]

ok

[uneven pine]

No no I have uh

[snow epoch]

i'll get to it

gotta start with the @echo off 😎

[uneven pine]

9TB in my main system

[snow epoch]

gahdam

[uneven pine]

1TB in my bedroom system and 1.5TB on the laptop

[snow epoch]

bro i have like only 550gb on this laptop

[uneven pine]

The streaming rig will have 1TB too

[carmine apex]

i have 19.5 terabytes over 5 drives and 3 are getting full but i don't have any more space in my computer 😭

[uneven pine]

I intend to do a cleanup of a lot of my data

[carmine apex]

also wtf kind of cruel monster removed the :sobmeltdown: emoj. typical arch users 😡

[uneven pine]

I'm using like 2TB from old videos that are not needed from old projects that never went anywhere

I also want to do away with spinning disks

[snow epoch]

i just searched up colored text in batch on edge and bing ai just starts yappin

@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion

:: Define a backspace variable
for /F "tokens=1,2 delims=#" %%a in ('"prompt #$H#$E# & echo on & for %%b in (1) do rem"') do (
  set "BS=%%a"
)

:: Function to print colored text
:ColorPrint
echo off <nul set /p ".=%BS%" > "%~2"
findstr /v /a:%1 /R "^$" "%~2" nul
del "%~2" > nul 2>&1
goto :eof

:: Usage of the function to print "hello" in different colors
call :ColorPrint 0a "hello" & echo(
call :ColorPrint 0C "hello" & echo(
call :ColorPrint 0b "hello" & echo(```
like wtf is this

[uneven pine]

Oh actually I was wrong I have 10TB not 9

[snow epoch]

bro got money signs in the code

thats everywhere

but like

this is wierd

[uneven pine]

The cash symbol is pretty common in programming lol

[snow epoch]

its almost as bad as brainf at the findstr line

yeah

[acoustic moss]

have you ever seen haskell code

[snow epoch]

i used it in my calculator on C# i believe

[snow epoch]

nah

[uneven pine]

Haskell is a great language for learning functional concepts

[acoustic moss]

good keep it that way

[uneven pine]

It's an awful language to actually write code in

[acoustic moss]

whoa

[uneven pine]

I got some hold on

[snow epoch]

python is just fun and simple

[acoustic moss]

idk it seems pretty nice to write in too

[snow epoch]

cuz i can usually make any simple program i want but then i procrastinate and never get it done

[acoustic moss]

probably annoying if youre fighting a deadline or sthn
