Shame they made their card game monitization so horrible, supposedly it could have been decent.

I'm feeling it.
I signed up for the beta without having played any actual Halo game before.
wet steppe
on yeah i saw that on youtube
sand goblet
I played the first two halo games
that's it
because they stopped bringing them to PC
and all I had was an original xbox

Steam even. Not the windows store. Surprising.
wet steppe

maybe it'll support li- naaaaaaaaaah

One of my friends is picking it up on release, but a fair few of them are holding out.

I might even install windows to play bl3
stark prawn
BL1 isn't
sand goblet
oh yeah, wait
stark prawn
Just bl2 and tps
sand goblet
I'm thinking of pre-sequel yeah
lilac glade
I'd play with you guys if I didn't have Monster Hunter and Mordhau clogging up my time.
sand goblet
that's okay, 2 was better anyway
stark prawn
But the new patch isn't out yet for bl2 on Linux :/
wet steppe
@grave phoenix if you can use arch then definitely drop manjaro
manjaro gets bugs that arch doesn't get, its weird
stark prawn
So can't matchmake with windows untill it is.
lilac glade
Manjaro is a port of arch, no?
grave phoenix
I switched to manjaro just to test it
wet steppe
its not a port of any kind
lilac glade
Err, "built on Arch"
sand goblet
Manjaro is arch with a graphical installer and some extra repos
grave phoenix
It's based on arch
wet steppe
the big thing is that manjaro holds back package releases for around 3 weeks
to do their own testing
wet steppe
for prod its still too unstable
sand goblet
I don't find arch unstable
wet steppe
ubuntu LTS / Debian time
sand goblet
I actually use arch in prod
wet steppe
noooo
grave phoenix
Arch is not unstable, you make it unstable
wet steppe
but rolling release
a package update could break it
sand goblet
auto-updates on friday
wet steppe
rolling release is a form of instability
sand goblet
I've been doing it for years, it's fine
wet steppe
I think we might be using a different definition of stable lol
sand goblet
if I was using any other packages I'd agree with you
lone otter
docker probably helps with that
sand goblet
it helps a lot, yeah
lone otter
you wouldn't need to worry about postgres updates etc
stark prawn
Antergos used to break for me several times because they didn't have a dependency listed.
wet steppe
I mean I'm a big arch fan
but if my job was to maintain a critical linux server
I'm putting CentOS on that boi
sand goblet
yeah, I pin my docker containers
grave phoenix
The only thing I hate is having to reinstall drivers for every kernel update
stark prawn
So it would install the new kernel, while there were no compatible drivers for my filesystem yet.
stark prawn
I'm on Manjaro now, works like a charm.
grave phoenix
I don't know but every time I update the kernel I have to rebuild and reinstall the wifi and Bluetooth driver
wet steppe
Ubuntu is actually really good at getting the latest kernel
using their HWE thing
you can have ubuntu LTS with latest kernel
good for ryzen users back when only some kernel versions could use ryzen
lilac glade
🦀 WINDOWS 10 PRO 🦀
wet steppe
@stark prawn arch or arch-based works fine until it doesn't
lol
grave phoenix
@lilac glade no
stark prawn
You may have just had to enable the Bluetooth service instead of a reinstall
wet steppe
you have rolling release
so all it really takes is for someone to push a broken AUR package
grave phoenix
No that's not
wet steppe
TBH I think that
how stable Arch is
depends a lot on how much you use the AUR
if you have zero AUR packages then arch is very stable
grave phoenix
Also I love this xd
wet steppe
if you have 50+ AUR packages then its a roulette
stark prawn
AUR isn't part of arch itself though.
wet steppe
yeah but most Arch users love the AUR
lone otter
cannot confirm
grave phoenix
can confirm
wet steppe
AUR is the main benefit of using Arch in the first place
wet steppe
you get stuff that hasn't yet been officially package for ubuntu/debian yet
sand goblet
I use the AUR
But nothing I use from it heavily integrates with the system
It's just stuff like discord and pycharm and applets
I don't use the AUR on a server.
wet steppe
xubuntu is good choice yeah
vestal briar
Doesn't look 100% all the time but close enough for me
sand goblet
@grave phoenix What desktop env are you using
grave phoenix
KDE
grave phoenix
That's the one I used last time
sand goblet
Those are lockers, not display managers
grave phoenix
The only thing I don't like is configuring networking stuff
stark prawn
How complicated is your network?
sand goblet
That's more or less automatic for me
And I have a fairly complicated network
NetworkManager is great
stark prawn
Normally you can just plug in an ethernet cable and you're good to go.
grave phoenix
So, you are saying that NetworkManager would do almost all the work?
sand goblet
Yep
Install it, enable --now it, and off you go
KDE's control centre can configure it if you need
stark prawn
I didn't know about --now, is that the same as doing both enable and start?
grave phoenix
The --now switch can be used in conjunction with enable, disable, and mask to respectively start, stop, or mask the unit immediately rather than after rebooting.
sand goblet
Yep
sand goblet
Hey @cosmic quiver, I was thinking about what you said and I see what you meant now, sorry - I must've misread

anyone up for reproducing a bug in this module https://github.com/spatialaudio/python-sounddevice?
it should be pip install sounddevice
or python-sounddevice
one of those
here's the bug: open up a youtube video in any browser and let it play. then go into IDLE and type import sounddevice
on my pc this results in the youtube video either momentarily freezing or crashing
i want to check if it's something specific to my system or not before reporting it
my OS is Windows 10 x64 and am running Python 3.7.3
my guess is it's trying to query al lthe available audio devices on the system and in doing so opens one that needs exclusive access or something and this screws with every other audio device currently in use
vapid bluff
on a different note, TIL memoryview objects exist
very cool
the onyl downside is that they lock whatever theyre viewing
summer rampart
I read about them a while ago and I have already forgotten what they do
vapid bluff
cant append to it etc
basically they let you slice into bytes/bytesarray objects without creating copies
and also recast their values into different types
summer rampart
hm, like a read only reference?
vapid bluff
pretty much
like one thing you can do is step through a bytearray from the left like this:
data = bytearray(#lots of stuff)
view = memoryview(data)
while len(view):
byte = view[0]
# do stuff with byte
view = view[1:]
that view = view[1:] line will work without creating an entire copy of everything past 1 in the bytearray
oh, theyre not read-only in the sense that you can assign values to the underlying object using indices/slices on the memoryview
but if youve got a living memoryview object of a bytearray you cant append stuff to it
youre stuck with whatever's already allocated

it messes with hair colour pretty heavily

my beard goes scraggly after like 2 milimeter lol

maybe its my clippers yeah
gentle moss
another part is making sure you do get an even trim, like hairs aren't just laying down when you're trimming etc
but yeah, i just naturally have a good beard
been growing like this since i was 14

Don't try to grow a big beard in one go.

When python incorporates outside projects like unittests they keep the original formatting.

command_to_call = [exe, "-m", "pip", "install"]

if dep_version == "latest":
command_to_call.append(dep)
else:

You could try an anime or cartoon face.

the question is, what will it end up like?
hah
that's an interesting idea

Maybe you can just waifu2x each result
gentle moss
that's how i used to snapchat before i bothered getting a smartphone

Not that long ago someone here made a python project that modified anime pictures using deep learning.

There's a lot of anime related DL projects. Weebs are pervasive throughout life
sand goblet
To be fair, that project and waifu2x are super impressive though
gentle moss
it wont find the face of a pure anime face
stark prawn
Figures, it looks at a bunch of points on a face inorder to be able to transform it.
proper dune
Every anime DL project I know is just retraining a recently released network on anime images
Not sure the project itself is impressive rather than the paper it's based on's result
sand goblet
hey bisk, here's one for you

gentle moss
i mean actually
looking at what it did with that anime face
i reckon if it were printed

that's interesting

you should try it on one of those modelling picks that idiot spammer posted a few days back

i called him joe because it's fun

but hat in time now has 50 person multiplayer
young jetty
Imma call him joseph
sand goblet
I call him joph
sand goblet
the question is why hat in time now has 50 player online multiplayer
but I sure as hell want to try it
shame I don't actually know that many people
actually @gentle moss I have a question you might be able to answer
if you have a sec
sand goblet
so, the way this new internet is set up
the guy came in and used a specialised phone app to auto config the router
which is a fritzbox
and then forgot to give me the password
so I had to factory reset it to get into it
gentle moss
yup, sounds about right
sand goblet
everything works fine, however, I cannot open any ports for the life of me
and I think it has something to do with how the connection is configured vs the dish
vestal briar
wet steppe
have you thought about making a DIY linux router
sand goblet
and mainly does its own thing
vestal briar
rpi
sand goblet
port 22 is open to the world, but requires an SSH key I don't have
sand goblet
well I had to set up the connection myself
the settings here are all fairly simple
gentle moss
are you sure you're running official fritz firmware though?
sand goblet
yes
sand goblet
I checked the Ivertec site, and it states that I can indeed open ports and that they don't block any ports
No, fritzboxes don't have SSH
they don't have telnet either
it is possible to install a third party SSH solution, but..
not sure if I wanna do that
gentle moss
nah, was just a thought
sand goblet
I can hit 10.10.10.1 which I assume is the dish
sand goblet
no, fixed wireless
gentle moss
there's probably heavy restrictions between you and what is "the internet"
sand goblet
it's this thing they call wifiber, which requires line of sight to a nearby mountain
gentle moss
if you had ssh into the fritz you could probably actually probe the wireless network after the fritz
before the internet
i had a yank with similar problems once
rural bastard
sand goblet
I mean, I can hit the dish, like I say
I'm wondering if the problem isn't my fritz config
gentle moss
it's not
basically the dish is the gateway
router in and of itself
and it's clamping down on shit
basically a double nat scenario with an unkind gateway
sand goblet
right, okay
gentle moss
you'll have to contact the ISP
sand goblet
I have sent them an email on thursday
gentle moss
you could ask politely for 1:1 NAT but they probably can't provide it
because i bet everyone using that dish has the same IP
that network topology is common for rural areas
with that type of network
gentle moss
ahhhh, maybe you CAN get a 1:1 NAt then
a pure 1:1 NAT would be exactly what you want
gentle moss
then basically anything hitting your static IP goes straight to your router
Static NAT
sand goblet
ah okay, so basically I just need them to.. yeah
gentle moss
that's whatcha want
sand goblet
they have a great support team so they probably already know what I need from the email
gentle moss
your 1 private is mapped to 1 public
sand goblet
the reason I want this is mostly homeassistant
gentle moss
we run an environment like that in the business park
sand goblet
I mean, I do have nabu casa as well, but it's slow
also something I find amusing
that port 22 on my public IP
gentle moss
nah
that's a problem with NAT
you have to go out to their dish (router) to access your public IP
and at that point it's like "nah fuck you"
we experience a problem like that (because i'm lazy)
sand goblet
nah I mean, if I use my public IP I can get at it, and I scanned it from a server
but the private IP doesn't have it
gentle moss
we can't VPN into our own IP address from our private network
because i haven't configured the NAT correctly
¯_(ツ)_/¯

gentle moss
no perhaps. just not.
languid kelp
well i think it would be worse if i was just trying to troll!
gentle moss
even if you're not it's an unimportant question.
sand goblet
oh cool, I can add my fritzbox to my homeassistant
sand goblet
sand goblet
oh yeah, I had another question for you
gentle moss
it's nice
sand goblet
OK, so homeassistant is running on a dedicated raspberry pi 3
on.. let's say 192.168.2.30
because the best way to use it on android is one of those chrome home screen pinned tab things, you go to a url and add it to your home page
the question is, whether I can somehow force the DNS to resolve to the local address when on the local network
so that devices can still easily get at it if the internet is down
gentle moss
hmmm
sand goblet
currently my network's DNS is provided by a pi-hole, which is also managed by homeassistant
the other problem is that the port isn't the same but I can fix that easily enough
gentle moss
if it's by hostname i think there's a way to do it through fritz
sand goblet
well, fritz is also not handling DHCP on my network
gentle moss
ah
sand goblet
that's being handled by google wifi
which I guess I could point at the fritz for DNS
and then point that at the pi-hole
gentle moss
if it does that, i haven't used google wifi
sand goblet
it does
I can set the DNS on that
google wifi is actually intended to be able to handle pppoe
the only reason I'm not using it is because the stupid heating system can only connect to things with wps
so I have to have the fritz
if it wasn't for that I could straight up remove it and plug the dish right into the google wifi
sand goblet
I use pi-hole because I can block ads/trackers with it
gentle moss
yeah
sand goblet
if I could get at my homeassistant easily right now.. hold on actually
gentle moss
okay that was unsettling
gf is asleep on the sofa
and just giggled like you know those evil children giggle in horror movies
sand goblet
that's around 27% of today's queries blocked

if you dont mind me asking... why is the number of domains higher than the number of ads?
gentle moss
bar the fucking TV
sand goblet
it isn't today, yeah
I'm not sure where that total goes to
probably like a week or something
gentle moss
i wonder if it includes subs
sand goblet
gentle moss
time to get drunk and ignore the noises coming from upstairs
yell hello into the dark
sand goblet
surprising number of ipv6 requests given that we don't have ipv6
languid kelp
another little question: is pi-hole superior to regular adblock i.e. umatrix?
sand goblet
no, you need them both
they serve different purposes
the main reason you use pi-hole to begin with is for devices that you can't install an adblocker on
but pi-hole just blocks at the DNS level
adblockers do more than that
languid kelp
you could prevent being hacked over PS4 with pi-hole? 🤔
gentle moss
you could prevent being hacked over PS4 by having a router and not exposing any ports?
wtf are you talking about
languid kelp
i don't own a ps4. or a router.
languid kelp
w-what does that do
sand goblet
Static custom DNS entry that only applies on my network
languid kelp
that's a good explanation. thanks.
gentle moss
local network hostname resolution
wet steppe
is this like that 1111 thing
gentle moss
no
languid kelp
not sure when one would use such a thing
gentle moss
imagine having a DNS server in your house
gentle moss
so if you want to access your computer called COMPUTER1
you can just ping COMPUTER1
and your router / dns server resolves it to your local network
that's really dumbed down
this is impossibly common in business networks
languid kelp
what might be a decent home router on a budget?
gentle moss
what's the budget?
languid kelp
hm. maybe i'll worry about it when i've got a job. 😄
i'm hotspotting from my iphone meanwhile
gentle moss
i mean if you've got an old PC and two ethernet adapters in it
you can just use pfsense
but that's some heavy shit to learn
gentle moss
pfsense is a freebsd based operating system that behaves like a router
in case you didn't know
languid kelp
i came across pfsense, but i didn't know that
gentle moss
we use it for our larger scale networks
gentle moss
pfsense uses php to create a nice web framework (and shell) to make pf more managable
pf is like iptables
wet steppe
nooo PHP
wet steppe
okay
gentle moss
here's an example of the web GUI for pfsense
using an old Core2Duo box and a pair of gigabit ethernet adapters you can easily handle about a million packets per second
which is uhhh
HUGE
wet steppe
LOL this looks like the Bootstrap UIs that I make
gentle moss
yeah cause it's FUNCTIONAL
wet steppe
look those juicy colourful buttons ❤
gentle moss
it's just providing a neat front end to something you could do with a freebsd install with pf installed
but fuck doing it through a shell, right?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
pfsense is used by some HELLA large providers
iirc amazon use it
gentle moss
pfsense is not like some tiny thing
it's pretty fucking big / important
it's gaining market share in usage over traditional routing technologies
cisco / sonicwall / etc
people are getting hella fed up of cisco
for a start you shell out like £5k for a cisco box
then you've gotta pay license fees to maintain it
then if you want say, extra VPN connections
LOL MORE MONEY
you spend £5k on a netgate box that is actually higher specced with pfsense on it
no limit, no license.

I met a guy at a bar who is starting a Cisco career
he did the certs and stuff
I wonder if that's still good
gentle moss
yeah, that's not a bad thing to do but it's expensive
corporations like it because it's trusted
but as i say, more and more corps are moving towards pfsense
lower costs and all you need is smarter engineers
"smarter"
sand goblet
You can get cisco boxes for cheaper than that
What you're paying for is corporate support
sand goblet
If you're working at home then you probably don't need that
gentle moss
not a small business or w/e
sand goblet
Ah right

It's 2am, go to bed
gentle moss
becaaauuussseee

I'm going to bed
gentle moss
i need to pay to get a security fix
and FUCK that
otherwise they're hyper vulnerable
evil company
they really don't care about a secure internet
they just care about their bottom line
and sure, these ASA's i have will do the job of being routers
but they would also get popped pretty quick
because i can't get new firmware without $$$ @ cisco
wet steppe
sounds like Oracle lol
gentle moss
same kind of companies tbh
the old era bastards that are clinging on for dear life
but cisco is far more embedded because they kind of run most of the internet
their business model will have to change i think

Need to upgrade building/installing to use the sha hashes now 😎

@vestal briar what's that?
vestal briar
vestal briar
tl;dr?
proper dune
Proposal to add a construct to Python to allow the use of shared memory segments on modern operating systems to share memory between processes (which currently wastefully serialises and deserialises data for sending)
summer rampart
shared memory between processes, ie. no need to serialise and deserialise data
proper dune
lol the convo about merging it in early

I have a longterm plan for learning C; I will do 1 double-page per day
On the book each is a mini topic
So it will take me ~2-3 months to learn and cement all the syntax & theroy behind it
ebon quarry
K & R?
vestal briar
It's "C in easy steps"
Great book
It is still ANSI C though
It's more made for first-timers in programming but I think that's good (only ever done python and c#)
@ebon quarry I think i'll do this book for now until I get a K&R
ebon quarry
K&R is good but I got some indian ripoff lol
vestal briar
:)
ebon quarry
The one on Amazon gets you one that has stickers below which it says "circulation outside of the indian subcontinent is strictly prohibited"
very interesting
vestal briar
Weird situation
My mums friends husband that passed away learnt C and had/has the book
noble loom
Hiiiii
tight fractal
Glorious
wooden kindle
Doesn't even ask the user for their name 8/10
shell blade
3/10 that is a major bug
tight fractal
It's a feature, it's so intelligent it doesn't need to ask
They should have written that in the documentation
rough sapphire
Is this actually from something
proper dune
@ebon quarry it's not a ripoff. Books sold internationally are generally made of cheaper paper rather than the nice smooth and glossyish paper in larger western countries to make it more accessible for the market
So the cheaper versions of the book aren't meant to be circulated outside so the rich nations buy the expensive version
vestal briar
I hate the glossy paper
Especially when its on cardboard
If you scratch it is is 10x worse feel then a blackboard
stark prawn
They are sometimes over 10x more expensive though,.
vestal briar
Yep
I just adjusted my monitor settings to be less "pop" with whites
PDFs look like a book in daylight now

it's not just the paper..

what's the history of foo bar..
vapid bluff
The etymology of foo is obscure. Its use in connection with bar is generally traced to the World War II military slang FUBAR, later bowdlerised to foobar

@sand goblet No offence, but it looked fucking disgusting 😄
Containing an entire tray of chips
A fruit based curry sauce
Six slices of cheddar and two handfuls of grana padano
I also sautéed an onion for good measure
Well yeah, that's the joke :P
languid kelp
vague shuttle
Y I didnt read anything else, I just saw the picture and ur text lol 😃
languid kelp
not sure what you mean
vague shuttle
A picture gdude posted somedays ago or something not sure. Just saw it when I opened my web browser at work.
languid kelp
oh hm
languid kelp
oh of course
sand goblet
Oh wait, are you using chips in the American sense?
These are chips in the English sense
sand goblet
They're like steakhouse fries yeah
sand goblet
Yeah but you qualified it with "potato"
languid kelp
those aren't real food~
languid kelp
ah right
there was an attempt
the most unhealthy thing about it is only the sheer quantity of it
vague shuttle
Y besides u know the cheddar, curry (that probably has some cream or something in it) and (im guessing) a hefty amount of salt
But the onion compensates for that!
languid kelp
if he made it himself, it may not be too bad/salty
vague shuttle
In all seriousness, if he made it himself doesnt matter much. Just looking at it I can tell it is unhealthy. Not trying to bash on gdudes eating habits considering mine are absolute dog shit

Since its inception in 1911, only four percent of Scouts have earned this rank after a lengthy review process.
The Eagle Scout rank has been earned by over 2.5 million youth.
that's like... 250 million youths through the scouts in the last century right
languid kelp
i was asking a math question
languid kelp
you were one of 1/4 of a billion, if my math is correct
rough sapphire
yep.. im special..
languid kelp
rough sapphire
in Dutch.. what's correct.. alles op... or alle op ?
oak tangle
in which context?
There's no way to say anything useful about that without a grammatical context
It's likely to be the first, but I'm not sure
rough sapphire
like.. what about
verander alles op facebook
or would it be
verander alle op facebook
oak tangle
verander alles op facebook
A famous example with alle op is alle op de zaak betrekking hebbende stukken
But that's far more rare, that's why I said it was likely to be the former
rough sapphire
erg bedankt:)
