can i proxy geyser via cloudflare? i really cant pay tcpshield :/

limber knotBOT

huh

visual egret

i think cloudflare only does tcp too

limber knotBOT

wut

all MC is tcp

visual egret

is bedrock too?

limber knotBOT

idk, don't see why it wouldn't be tho

bedrock is UDP

what's that plugin that allows bedrock users

@pop4549 so only way to slow it down is by reducing max chunk gens in paper.yml? Wondering if there's a way to slow it down more to do a "slow pregen" while my server is in the downgraded state (1GB RAM to give it time to gc n' stuff c: )

left swift
#

Some poor guy named rob gets pinged everytime someone tries to quote ping you robo

#

That's what it means it tries to find your discord tag and since ur not ur irc it pings rob

slim nymph
#

max chunk gens isnt a paper config anymore atm

left swift
#

Poor rob

limber knotBOT
#

quote ping

#

hmm

left swift
#

I have quotes in this discord but in my friends discord I have the new reply feature

#

Is it just random what servers they assign it to

slim nymph
#

its slowbro rolling out

left swift
#

Ah

#

It looks decent and it autos the ping to be off

#

Nice moves

limber knotBOT
#

ya nvm it's not an option. I have a plugin that auto-substitutes in new paper stuff but that's on my other server, too lazy to put it here

#

auto-subs in my config options that is

left swift
#

👁️

limber knotBOT
#

so whenever I want a fresh paper config I GitHub search all my config options to see if they're still relevant and then delete paper.yml, restart, and then restart again

#

same with spigot.yml. Apparently I do bukkit.yml too

visual egret
#

can anyone help me come up with a fork name? @pale river @untold copper

pale river

I was going to use pH (paper hack) as the name of my fork

hm

#

fork

fallen oracle
#

Chunky or bust.

limber knotBOT
#

y forked

grand pewter
#

pure fixed some of the memory leaks and shit in the original WB, and original WB is also no longer maintained

limber knotBOT
#

at the cost of more memory usage

grand pewter
#

it's not as fast but if you need slow that's perfect 🙂

visual egret
#

make a version of paper that has all the things i use preinstalled (my code)

limber knotBOT
#

I need less memory usage

#

but alright

grand pewter
#

ah well give it a try anyway, pure did fix some memory issues with it

limber knotBOT
#

will give it a spin once my server auto downgrades

grand pewter
#

i dont think it stalls with GC anymore

#

old WB did that a lot

visual egret
#

change your xmx and xms flags 😎 robo

limber knotBOT
#

did u c my wonderful timing reports

grand pewter
#

im pretty sure hes running on a rpi or something

limber knotBOT
#

or report I should say

grand pewter
#

how are you only on 1gb ram

#

damn

limber knotBOT
#

azure B series

#

it auto upgrades when a player attempts to join

#

then downgrades while ppl r off

#

I used to get away with 1GB ram tho

grand pewter
#

is the hardware actually good

limber knotBOT
#

then 1.14 or something came along

#

I'm on B2 right now, and it's smooth with chunky goin away and bluemap rendered

grand pewter
#

ah OK, well if you aren't having issues thats good 🙂

limber knotBOT
grand pewter
#

the chunk gen should be on another thread anyway if you're using Paper XD

#

spigot is a bit more yikes

limber knotBOT
#

7 hour timings with chunky hackin away c:

grand pewter
#

how fast is it going at

limber knotBOT
#

b1ms is 2GB ram but still 1 core

#

B2 is 2 core

#

4GB

grand pewter
#

my 3700x gets like 70 chunks per second

#

with starlight like 130 or something

limber knotBOT
#

it's throttled right now cuz it's used up the credits so it's 3-4 cps, I can't recall before throttle tho

#

(B-series is for bursts that's why)

grand pewter
#

oh ok so that isn't ideal

#

at least better than rpi XD

#

i was getting like 2 cps when i tried spinning up my pi

viral hornet

he's up at 5am his time
@twin lagoon lies

#

I slept until 6am today 🥺

limber knotBOT
#

hmm, 30 or so for my generator

#

60+ on a flatworld before I was able to cancel it cuz that was the wrong world it was doin

pale river
#

I'm getting 30 CPS on my custom nether

#

With a fabric pregenerator

grand pewter
#

oh yeah fabric pregenerator

pale river
#

I don't trust bukkit's custom worlds with a datapack to generate correctly

grand pewter
#

yeah, don't

pale river
#

So I'm generating on fabric before putting the map on bukkit with a plugin

visual egret
#

bruh i run my servers on a raspi with no issues rn

grand pewter
#

good joke 🙂

visual egret
#

i only started having issues on an smp server with 3+ players

grand pewter
#

the raspberry pi itself as a minecraft server is an issue

3+ players

limber knotBOT

wut iz fabric

grand pewter
#

its a mod loader robo, like forge

limber knotBOT

#

o ok

don't care den

grand pewter

oh well fabric pregenerator is just some plugin for fabric XD

#

i have had about 5 players on a smaller map with no problems, i dont have more friends than that tho

grand pewter
#

whats your generator robo

#

custom?

limber knotBOT
#

a combo of generators

#

lemme send u the class

pale river
#

I have a biome bundle earth map as my custom overworld

limber knotBOT
#

My printlns are suppressed for some reason when ur generator runs

#

idk if that's cuz of async or something else

#

there are no meme serburs out there

#

so ofc I have to make one

grand pewter
#

lol yeah weird, maybe use the plugin logger instead

#

the scheduling is async and so are the chunk loads on paper, so it's generally mostly off the main thread

limber knotBOT
#

I guess I should since I did end up passing the instance in anyways

grand pewter
#

damn end gen patch got merged

#

that's going to be nice

#

if you are going to be doing the end make sure to update cause its like 3x faster lol

#

but im guessing you are probably just doing your custom world

agpl 3.0

pale river

mit

limber knotBOT

like I don't wanna screw myself over if I decide to want to make sum moniez off of my codez or stuff

or have ppl use it for blatantly immoral things

minor badge
#

always some GPL

limber knotBOT
#

or stuff

#

idk

#

idk gpl

#

cuz it wants to infect itself everywhere

minor badge
#

LGPL then :p

#

or BSD 3 clause

olive marlin
#

AGPL - if someone does the smallest change to your code and uses it where other have access (plugin, server, ...), they need to disclose source.

minor badge
#

AGPL is great

olive marlin
#

I always roll a Random() at it and get whatever license I get lol

limber knotBOT
#

yea and then I'm curious if ppl use my stuff too

#

ugh

true canyon
#

With Bukkit plugins it's always best to just be honest and go GPL (or AGPL). Plenty of opportunity to make money even with source disclosure.

ancient bolt
#

I always license my code under the Oracle ™️ Proprietary All Rights Reserved License

true canyon
#

Heck, even plugins that are freely distributing their source to everyone regardless of purchase are making money on the super cool "freemium" model as folks call it.

It is faster, just because it has less crap installed. But then you start installing your crap, and you won't notice the difference.

slim nymph
#

re license, ask yourself that ifsomeone DID want to violate the gpl, and use your shit in commercial software, do you really want to sue them to remove your code or to release their source? if not, if you just want to ensure people dont take your shit and claim they wrote it, MIT is simple and relaxed

visual egret
#

for an mc server on low end hardware?

slim nymph
#

if your not willing to enforce the gpl, using gpl is kinda meh

ancient bolt

the OS you run your mc server on is irrelelvant

I just want attribution so therefore I will go with a CC license <:

Moving partitions is always funs.

i didnt make a backup fuckkk

I just want to prevent loading based on system it's running on cuz I'm too lazy to "make two servers"

well dont cancel it, but long as nothing interrupts powwer gparted usually pretty good

ok the 40gb partition is done, now i wait for the 200gb one

hmm, an incompatible-with might be interesting to have in plugin.yml
@unkempt drift

#

well I think you'd have an issue with people complaining about that 😆

limber knotBOT
#

basically I'm pretty sure bluemap's web server has prolly pushed my server over the limit

olive marlin
#

Does someone here use a custom ROM on their phone? I was wondering what's worth looking at.

limber knotBOT
#

depends on ur device

#

steel droid was the only ROM that made my Motorola droid work without dying

vernal moth
#

I feel like custom roms are only worth it to revive old devices

#

Or devices that get no love from oems for other reasons

limber knotBOT
#

stock and all others would kill the launcher and stuff

vernal moth
#

I haven't rooted yet alone custom Rom'd my phone in years

limber knotBOT
#

and then I went to Windows Phone cuz I was tired of having to tweak the device to get it to work the way I want lol, and also cuz I liked Windows 8

#

tweaking a PC is one thing, a phone tho is a lot more annoying. That's not to say it was all bad, I had fun turning it into a PS3 Bluetooth remote n stuff

olive marlin
#

I haven't received update in over a year now. Stuck on Android 9.

#

And SD Card support sucks on Android.

limber knotBOT
#

in the later days of Windows 10 mobile (and Windows Phone 8.1) MS relaxed a lot of the memory requirements/constraints for apps tho so eventually some apps started gettin annoying on Windows Phone too :/

olive marlin
#

Quite a few apps don't work with SD Card.
RIP Syncthing :(

vernal moth
#

Sd card support got better in recent android versions ^^

#

I don't remember the last time I had an sd card tho

limber knotBOT
#

yup, disabled bluemap and now my server's more responsive again

vernal moth
#

They changed the partition layout in 10 I think so that all apps work in sd cards

olive marlin
#

Apparently android 11 might have something better. But noone is sure.

modern bone
#

Quite a few apps don't work with SD Card.
RIP Syncthing :(
Works for me

#

But it broke on a friends samsung
It can get access to it's own android/data folder though

#

It's annoying but it works

olive marlin
#

Syncthing works read-only with SD card folders, aside from some hacks. And devs said they don't plan on maintaining hacks to make it "work".

#

They are looking into Android 11.

modern bone
#

It can get access to it's own android/data folder though
You can get read/write in this folder

olive marlin
#

Yeah, I know.

#

But it's a folder for use by other apps too...

modern bone
#

?

olive marlin
#

I have Syncthing sync folder with, I.e. my password database.

#

So both Syncthing and KeePass need to R/W the folder.

modern bone
#

Ah

#

If you prefer to self host stuff you can also take a look at bitwarden

olive marlin
#

I'd need to host a server though?

modern bone
#

You can if you want

olive marlin
#

If so, that comes with security implications and need for internet access etc. Now I can have my phone offline and access all my passwords.

modern bone
#

Oh no it just syncs with the server, the data is stored offline

olive marlin
#

Still doesn't solve issues with other apps, not getting updates and the fact that I'd need to remember what app uses what folder, instead of using my layout I'm familiar with.

limber knotBOT

lol, dumcordsrv dev excluded his plugin from plugman. Too bad! My plugin shall disable u.

it runs but it looked annoying to use

dont remember which model, presumably the air?

limber knotBOT

I think the air is correct

upper flicker

seems to be the way to go unless youre going to do full loads longer than about 10 minutes

which seem to be much rarer on native m1

plus no stupid touchbar

limber knotBOT

you not a touchbar fan?

#

I've never used it so I don't really know how I would use it

im looking at the cheapest pro and omg its looking tempting

the touchbar, the touchpad

the screen

and the apple ecosystem

the glorious ecosystem indeed :)

even transferring from an old iphone to a new one amazes me

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package virtualbox-6.1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'virtualbox-6.1' has no installation candidate
upper flicker

and electron is supposedly not great

#

well specifically with this, not in general

#

(but also in general)

ancient bolt
#

I'm sure chromium will have a release soon enough

upper flicker
#

I thought chromium did

#

it was specifically electron that didnt

ancient bolt
#

but yeah makes sense that VM containers would be the worst

#

ah

upper flicker
#

and yes machine_maker, I have one, it's fine, but I'd rather it wasnt there

ancient bolt
#

maybe electron has some other dependencies

#

I don't mind the touchbar

#

don't really care either way though

limber knotBOT
#

you need the touch bar for the fingerprint thing to right? I kinda would want that

ancient bolt
#

the air won't have a touchbar and I don't think you'll lose anything from it

olive marlin
#

@visual egret do apt-cache search virtualbox or apropos virtualbox iirc, it should tell you what you can use to install it.

upper flicker
#

air has fingerprint

#

you do not need the touchbar

ancient bolt
#

touchid is a separate button

limber knotBOT
#

oh it does? I thought that was part of the touchbar.. hmm

upper flicker
#

on the pros its part of the same design but its a separate button

viral hornet
#

Do you ever wake up to something really broken
so you just want to drink gin and pass out

upper flicker

on the airs they just make it look more like another separate button

no

granted it has been a few hours, so maybe it's time for morning drinking yayyy

Anyone wonna force me to learn java gui programming do it now

#

Give me one reason why its good and I will learn ether awt or fx

golden gust
#

it's ass

#

But, given the other cross platform options, you're stuck between "use a web browser", and some 3rd party cross platform library which missing gaps here and there

#

xamarim forms is the only real "cross platform" option which looked remotely viable, but, then you're in C# land

wise isle
#

Exactly nothing positive

golden gust
#

it's the most sane option if you want something that's actually cross platform

wise isle
#

Well spring is cool ngl but

golden gust
#

in general, it has all the same fallbacks of other GUI libraries, but, at least it's cross platform

wise isle
#

ok now decide AWT or FX

golden gust
#

fx

golden gust
#

fx is basically a pretty layer over awt and whatever the other dated gui stuff

#

forgot it's name, swing?

wise isle
#

something like that

#

they skipped gui programming in uni all together and went to web

#

so i feal like i missed on something

#

Fx seams nice

#

you dont need a gui designer

golden gust
#

I think I used FX for like one statistics assignment

#

Well, on my CS course

#

"mek some pretti charts", basically

wise isle
#

But seams like FX was made in the era where they taught XML is the futre

golden gust
#

Most UI frameworks that I've seen which aren't hardcoded are purely XML based, seems to be the best way to go about it

wise isle
#

well not like we use xhtml in web dev

golden gust
#

scenebuilder also exists, but, I had some issues getting it to work all the time

potent fossil
#

xhtml lefbad

wise isle
#

nah i like the pure code experience, seen my friend has to make office word like program for his final exam from oop on another uni

#

with pure code no designers

potent fossil
#

I mean, that doesn't really sound too terrible

#

Assuming it doesn't have to be that feature packed

wise isle
#

It has to have as much features as possible

potent fossil
#

I mean all the text formatting should be easy enough

wise isle
#

what about pictures my friend

potent fossil
#

Shouldn't be that hard

#

Text wrapping around pics might be a bit of a bitch

wise isle
#

Exactly

potent fossil
#

But, like, you can get quite a few "easy" features down

wise isle
#

mail feature is eazy javax.mail is there

#

preview is eazy too

#

although not sure about printing (never tried to do it from java lol)

potent fossil
#

java.awt.print

wise isle
#

it must be fx

potent fossil
#

You just have to build the graphics object

wise isle
#

thats the catch

whats it about

i had 2 (5 is the maximum) in high school from writing so i cant help lol I sucked so badly

potent fossil
#

It's a persuasive speech

#

I'm just going to talk about why everyone should know basic code to help automate tedious tasks and the benefits it can bring

#

Should be an easy topic. I was going to talk about why everyone should have financial independence and a good understanding of personal finance but I don't want to think

#

Last speech of the semester, then I can focus on all my other shit that's due pepecrying

golden gust

Might I make a suggestion?

potent fossil

Is it constructive

Go to your bedroom, cry for 10 minutes, sit back at desk

The Apple Way (tm)

#

Where free apps get threatened to be banned if they don't add IAP

#

Gooooood times

unkempt drift
#

Yeah... pretty sure Apple is in the right over that whole thing.

#

They do indeed have a monopoly on products they make.

vernal moth
#

Legally? Maybe, that it's getting tested right now

#

Morally? Hell fucking no

unkempt drift
#

And the free market takes care of moral issues.

vernal moth
#

Ah yes, the famous market that regulates everything

#

Until it doesn't anymore

#

Idk, we will see what the trail will bring

#

You can see how uncomfortable apple is about it, didn't they just drop their apple tax for small devs?

unkempt drift
#

Hey, if enough people don’t like that enough, then Apple will have to change. There are 100% alternatives to using Apple products. Just ask literally anyone who doesn’t use Apple products

vernal moth
#

Completely contradicting their level playing field argument?

golden gust
#

apple doesn't allow you offering off-site payments for anything because mah apple tax

unkempt drift
#

I’d be curious of the revenue breakdown at their “small dev” cutoff.

vernal moth
#

Cat this was about a 100% free service

#

No payment possible

unkempt drift
#

Does like 95% of their App Store revenue come from “big devs”

golden gust
#

No, they have donation buttons or something

vernal moth
#

It was kinda like that jake, ye

#

I saw it on some post that this cut is insignificant for them

golden gust
unkempt drift
#

Yeah, there is no indication they are losing. In fact, judging by the replies to Tim Sweeney’s tweets, he’s losing

#

But that’s hardly a legal tool to use 😛

vernal moth
#

Fanboys are jumping on him for holding fortnite hostage

unkempt drift
#

Yeah, that’s what I took from the tweets as well

vernal moth
#

Neither he nor I care, he's fighting for the greater good

#

Idk, just compare this to the Microsoft browser thing. Microsoft was forced to advertise other browsers, I don't see how this is any different to the app store

#

Anyways, us discussing this will not change a thing, the judges will speak

unkempt drift
#

Yeah, court date is may 2021

#

So... gonna be a second

vernal moth
#

Tim clearly is in it for the long run

cunning raft
#

not really fighting for the greater good, they're fighting to outlaw walled gardens

vernal moth
#

Which is the greater good, no?

unkempt drift
#

Yeah, that’ll be a result if epic wins.

#

Nintendo will have to open up their platform

#

Etc.

cunning raft
#

outlawing walled gardens isn't a good thing

vernal moth
#

Why not?

waxen panther
#

i need gentoo on my iphone now!!!

vernal moth
#

Why shouldn't I as a owner of a device be installing whatever software I want?

cunning raft
#

your smart toaster shouldn't be forced to allow fortnite run on it

#

and this isn't about being able to install what you want on it

unkempt drift
#

You can install whatever you want. Apple doesn’t need to provide tools for you to do that.

vernal moth
#

That's such a dum argument

golden gust
#

There are a handful of arguments each way

cunning raft
#

that's something that may be a good argument

vernal moth
#

Apple actively blocks me tho

cunning raft
#

allowing for sideloading

vernal moth
#

Yeah, just allow side loading, that's what google does

#

That's 100% fine

golden gust
#

I think apple should allow it, but with a huge "you are risking the security of your device and we are not responisible for anything moronic you induce in doing so"

cunning raft
#

that would be a good outcome mini yes

vernal moth
#

Since it also allows 3rd party app stores that way

cunning raft
#

but epic's lawsuit it claiming that IAP is an illegal tie in with iOS

golden gust
#

But, even android is limited in what you can do, e.g. you root and you lose access to android pay

cunning raft
#

which is not how monopolies work

vernal moth
#

Epic trying to make as many cases as possible

#

Half of that is bullshit

cunning raft
#

all is

waxen panther
#

free devices r cool but all my homies hate epic

cunning raft
#

I'll bet 5k on epic losing all counts

unkempt drift
#

I think a big misconception about monopolies is that they are not illegal.

cunning raft
#

^

vernal moth
#

@golden gust not if you are good at rooting ;)

unkempt drift
#

Using monopoly power to squash others is.

#

But a company isn’t penalized if you just offer a better product so no one else can compete

#

And in this case, I don’t think apps on an iPhone, qualifies as a separate market.

vernal moth
#

Which is what apple is doing. I loled so hard at the fact that apple software doesn't go thru the apple firewall api that all antivirus apps on macs have to use, and that that fact is getting exploited by viruses 😂

golden gust
#

Well, yea, but you do that and you're in the exact same realms of essentially jailbreaking requiring 3rd party roms and magisk

cunning raft
#

apple isn't abusing monopoly power

#

they don't even have monopoly power

vernal moth
#

That's what the judge will have to decide

golden gust
#

they have a walled off system

unkempt drift
#

Do they even have a majority share for anything?

#

Way more android phones

golden gust
#

People choose to buy into that system on both sides

vernal moth
#

That's also not how monoloplies work

cunning raft
#

payment processing on iOS isn't a market that can be classified as a monopoly

golden gust
#

It's not forced that companies pay apple or use the payment APIs they offer

vernal moth
#

You don't need a majority in a global market to have a monopoly in one sector

cunning raft
#

it's too specific

golden gust
#

Just, if you wanna take advantage of apples walled off garden, you gotta

cunning raft
#

if you go that specific anything can be a monopoly

unkempt drift
#

But no one is forcing you to buy an iPhone. It’s not the only smart phone.

cunning raft
#

^

golden gust
#

as ass as that is, it's their platform and their processes are what aim to keep it safe and secure and provide a good user experience

unkempt drift
#

So you aren’t forced into apples App Store.

vernal moth
#

The fact that apple is coupling everything together is the issue here. I as a developer want to use the product app store, without using the product apple pay

#

I don't want to have apple handle my payments, so they shouldn't force me to

cunning raft
#

you don't get to do that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

apple can do whatever they want on their platform

unkempt drift
#

If you don’t want Apple to handle them, don’t use their stuff

golden gust
#

But, how else will apple get their tax?

cunning raft
#

and should be allowed to

vernal moth
#

They already charge me as a developer for the app store

cunning raft
#

if a company wants to build a walled garden and tailored experience they should be allowed to

golden gust
#

I mean, which pays for what, a handful of staff hours to review your apps?

vernal moth
#

If that isn't enough they should raise it?

golden gust
#

Then you price more people out, and people bitch further

unkempt drift
#

If Apple is charging too much, app devs will stop making apps for that platform and they’ll disappear

vernal moth
#

Nah ppl have to make ios apps

cunning raft
#

nobody is forced to

unkempt drift
#

Lol they don’t have to

#

It’s a business decision

vernal moth
#

Users expect that

unkempt drift
#

It makes sense to make them cause there are a ton of users

cunning raft
#

companies want to in order to serve the market

#

but not forced

golden gust
#

user expectation means nothing

#

I mean, to companies it does, and that's why they pay it

coarse lily
#

They just dropped the percentage to 15% for most folks too.

golden gust
#

But, like, nothing says that as a starting up company you have to support iOS

#

Heck, create a mobile web app

coarse lily
#

But yeah iPhone are less than 20% of the global market.

vernal moth
#

Idk, we will see what the lawsuits will bring

#

And what the EU has to say about all of this

golden gust
#

But, proper integration offers a much better UE, for the users of their devices AND the businesses making the apps, etc

vernal moth
#

If your americans can't figure this out

cunning raft
#

telling you that based off US caselaw, this will not go in epic's favor

golden gust
#

No reason uber can't just be a standard web page app

cunning raft
#

and if the EU goes in favor of Epic, they're objectively stupid

vernal moth
#

Again, I dont see how this is different to the browser war

golden gust
#

it's the EU, they want to ban encryption...

cunning raft
#

yeah

#

real smart people over there

vernal moth
#

Say the dude from the UK that tried to ban porn ;)

cunning raft
#

tbf US tried to do that

#

not once

#

not twice

golden gust
#

it makes sense of some levels

cunning raft
#

not thrice

#

but four times

golden gust
#

It's moron as anybody who really wants to do something online can do it

#

But, just

#

Who wants to buy a remote island somewhere?

vernal moth
#

Well, as makes banning (and the proposal wouldn't even ban) encryption. It makes sense on some levels, but is incredibly stupid on others

cunning raft
#

regulating encryption in any sense

coarse lily
#

How does it make sense?

golden gust
#

NSA level stuffs

#

they basically want the means to a master key

vernal moth
#

I can 100% understand the frustration law enforcement has when being threatened by domestic terrorism and not being able to police properly cause they can't even read the text messages of the phone they have physically in their hand

#

But they will have to suck it up and find a better way

#

Cause you can't ban simple math

cunning raft
#

well you can

coarse lily
#

You CAN

cunning raft
#

but the problem is

coarse lily
#

Haha

golden gust
#

hey, anybody got the blueray number?

#

runs

cunning raft
#

terrorist's will find a way around it

golden gust
#

I mean, it's on platforms to require it

#

All it needs is somebody to create some open source app that people can just grab from somewhere and we're back to where we started

cunning raft
#

yeah

#

you're only gonna ban the good guys from using it

vernal moth
#

Don't the US still ban exporting encryption to china?

cunning raft
#

vice versa

#

i think

#

oh i'm thinking of AI

vernal moth
#

Heh, nice read

#

The quote from 1997 is still relevant, today more than ever

#

That shirt is so nice too

#

I saw somebody wearing that at a CCC before

#

Ppl also tatooed that perl script

toxic pagoda
#

Hi, a stupid question. But does mysqldump stall ongoing connections? And if so, how do I create backups without stalling things?

coarse lily
#

It does by default

#

But there’s a flag to not lock on dump

#

Although it depends on if you’re using innodb or myisam

toxic pagoda
#

I use the default that mariadb uses

#

And I think thats Innodb

coarse lily
#

It’ll work with innodb

#

But I suggest doing some research.

#

If your db has a lot of data then you may want to change the approach. A lot of it depends.

#

mySQL is pretty robust but if you have important data you want to make sure you know what you doing before trying stuff.

#

Or you could hose your db

golden gust
#

blocking is the only safe way to ensure consistency when creating a backup

coarse lily
#

That too.

toxic pagoda
#

Blocking?

golden gust
#

well, locking

toxic pagoda
#

So, closing all connections basically?

coarse lily
#

Or “stall” as you said

#

Locking keeps tables from being alter.

void void
#

ayoo

#

they updated discord or what

toxic pagoda
#

Ah alright. Cause my issue was that at a certain time (00:00) every day mysql conncetions would fail and one plugin would stall the main thread. And "coincidentally" that's the same time I run automatic backups so im hoping that's my issue. But I'll definitely look into improving my auto backups. Ty :)

limber knotBOT
#

worldborder wuz ok but eh. gonna try butchering chunky now with a nice sleep

golden gust
#

would stall the main thread

toxic pagoda
#

Well the server would stop responding, not naming any names but mcmmo

golden gust
#

yea, mcMMO's database stuff is dumb

limber knotBOT
#

does anything call isParallelCapable

#

in ChunkGenerator

golden gust
#

yes, but no real effect right now

limber knotBOT
#

does vanilla's return true?

toxic pagoda
#

Can't say I know much about it, but other databases seems to manage just fine with a few errors

#

But ty once again

golden gust
#

Well, isParallelCapable is a CB thing because mah legacy

#

world-gen in general is bound to a single thread

limber knotBOT
#

was it ever parallel capable

golden gust
#

no

limber knotBOT
#

nice

golden gust
#

That's all basically on the hopes that mojang eventually increases the number of threads able to do generation

red lintel
#

any asian?

coarse lily
#

What

red lintel
#

just wondering

coarse lily
#

O.o

limber knotBOT
#

well, I can also modify the semaphore count value

#

idk how much that'll do tho, since the async calls are probably queued anyways, but I guess it'll at least slow down what's queued up

#

prolly will need to stick a sleep in there anyway

coarse lily
#

You should rewrite worldgen to be multi thread.

#

:)

golden gust
#

that would likely induce weeks of catching down concurrency issues

serene bolt
#

concurrency issues? Sounds like PERFORMANCE

Top lad.

limber knotBOT
#

coarse lily
#

Discord has threads.

#

Worldgen should too.

limber knotBOT
#

does it now

coarse lily
#

Well no

#

But it should.

limber knotBOT
#

I didn't think they'd be that sophisticated

coarse lily
#

Just like Worldgen

slim nymph
#

well world gen is multi threaded atm

coarse lily
#

No they added replies

#

Which is kinda like threads but not.

#

@slim nymph is it?

slim nymph
#

yes

#

thread per world, then another thread per world for light

#

so uses up to 2 cores per world

coarse lily
#

Pffft

#

Obviously we need more threads!

slim nymph
#

yeah not happening w/o mojang

coarse lily
#

You can’t make a sweater with only 6 threads.

#

Why should you make a Minecraft server with only 6 threads?

slim nymph
#

you have to regionize the world to achieveconcurrency per world

serene bolt
#

concurrency issues everywhere!

slim nymph
#

even then that gets finicky as it likes to mutate shared state on world

golden gust
#

*erriwher

#

shared state == best state

#

#SharingIsCaring

slim nymph
#

so even if you solve ensuring 2 chunks arent concurrently generating next to each other with overlapping neighbors, still tons of other things to solve

#

but that first one is hard on its own

robo if just pregenning, increase the min/max neew gen up a good bit to like 60 min 80 max

#

just dont forget to revert the flags for normal play

#

-XX:G1NewSizePercent=30 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=40

#

those 2

limber knotBOT
#

mk

slim nymph
#

thatll give even more to eden, slow down GC rate, allow it to let more die w/o copying

#

the fact your young pause times is growing a lot tells me a lot is surviving, and the memory is simply lasting around 1 minute in age

limber knotBOT
#

what's the effect if I leave it in for normal play?

slim nymph
#

leaves very little room for old gen lol

#

mc needs more old gen in 1.15+ so i had to adjust those values lower in my recommendations

limber knotBOT
#

huh, what sort of stuff stays in memory now?

slim nymph
#

ton more overall memory for chunks

#

but for pregen your cycling chunks constantly

limber knotBOT
#

I c

slim nymph
#

so its better to try to keep them out of oldgen

#

note just casue it says old gen 0 doesnt mean its not using old gen or cleaning it

#

seeeing an old gen GC is a critical point, means the incremental cleaning couldnt keep up and it had to engage emergency mode

#

thats what you call a "Full GC"

limber knotBOT
#

ya I figured, but if 0 full gc then it's not as bad as those with them

#

pushing up to 70 90 good? basically gonna make it so it pregens (slowly) while VM is at 1GB state

#

don't know if it really needs much oldgen if nobody will be on it at that state

coarse lily
#

You’re using chunky?

#

In the past I’ve used worldborder

#

But it’s been a while.

limber knotBOT
#

chunky #1

limber knotBOT
#

ya trying out the kewl new kidz's stuff

#

chunky basically does all of its logic in an async thread

#

puremin's worldborder fork does do chunk loads async but the rest of the logic is still sync

#

chunky also does some concentric something which I guess better accounts for neighbors than worldborder's spiral which loads inner neighbors

#

seems 70 90 is a little too much, it froze on mcmmo, and after taking out mcmmo it took 330 seconds to start up lol

#

gonna back off and try the original 60 80 suggestion

serene bolt
#

chunky is the superior choice

So if I have a static variable in a class like private static final SomeObject objectMapper = new SomeObject(). If the class will be used in different threads, then does SomeObject have to be thread-safe right since multiple classes will be using the same instance or will it not matter?

worn pasture

🥺

Well, if something is accessing data from an object from multiple threads, you need to determine the risks of data desync's

at least for 1GB, prolly would work better if I allocate more

coarse lily

What's oldgen? I think I don't know a lot about chunk generation.

limber knotBOT
#

garbage collector

#

not exclusively for chunk generation

coarse lily
#

Ahh

#

I wasn't thinking garbage collection for some reason.

limber knotBOT
#

he was recommending I increase young gen or whatever a few hours ago here

coarse lily
#

Yeah I could see GC tweaks impacting chunk generation

limber knotBOT
#

but don't think a 1GB VM (which means squeezing about 600MB for server) is enough to squeeze much out of it

coarse lily
#

Likely not.

#

When I've done pregen I usually feed it 4GB+

At least.

the point of codepen is to make a minimal reproduction, not to reproduce the entire project inside of it

The "square" isn't really a square.

You set background color and the image is too small inside the bounding box.

if im doing object-fit:contain

@coarse lily you should actually send him a bill

coarse lily
#

That would be mean.

#

I did tell him I could only help the once.

#

I ain't doing random non-side project web work for free.

#

Spend all damn day doing it as it is now.

#

I kinda want to move to Norway.

minor badge
#

i currently live in norway, please abort your mission ,,,,

untold copper
#

imagine living in norway

coarse lily
#

I can't move anywhere right now.

untold copper
#

that would be neat

coarse lily
#

Basically no one will let me in with my passport because my country is dumb.

untold copper
#

which is your country

coarse lily
#

The United States.

untold copper
#

so why would they not let you into norway

#

.g USA relations with norway

because we're dirty nasty covid spreaders

untold copper
#

oh rn

coarse lily
#

Norway and the US normally have good relations.

#

Yeah.

#

It's the whole pandemic thing.

minor badge
#

untold copper
#

makes sense lol

coarse lily
#

Oh really?

minor badge
#

yup

untold copper
#

Doubtful much

coarse lily
#

Well shit I could go to Norway.

#

I tested negative like three days ago.

minor badge
#

coarse lily
#

Yeah.

untold copper
#

norway is norway

72h old at most

vestal jasper
#

dude every time I have to type out "coding" to seem more approachable instead of "programming" I die a little inside

coarse lily
#

Haha

untold copper
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

potent fossil
#

i had to type coding more than one time for my speech tomorrow

#

and i have to speak it

untold copper
#

both are equally scary

coarse lily
#

I never liked "coding".

#

I met a dude once who gave me his business card and his title was "hacker"

potent fossil
#

also @vestal jasper

||coders||

untold copper
#

xd

coarse lily
#

I just couldn't take him seriuosl.

vestal jasper
#

I never say "coding" unless I'm talking to someone who isn't into software

coarse lily
#

I usually just say "dev".

#

Like "software dev".

#

But I'm old.

untold copper
#

coding nub word kek

vernal moth
#

I call myself a hacker often

untold copper
#

just get gud

#

hacker is kewl

coarse lily
#

I sometimes say I'm hacking on stuff.

#

But I never call myself a hacker.

#

It's kinda like calling yourself cool.

#

When you do it you become uncool.

vestal jasper
#

Yeah I go with "devving" or "working on X"

coarse lily
#

Yeah "working on" is better.

vernal moth
#

Not in the "I hack computers" meaning, but in the original "I hack problems" meaning

coarse lily
#

More often than not I say "computer shit" to people who aren't tech savvy.

vernal moth
#

Devving ist so dum

vestal jasper
#

"working on plugins", "working on a desktop app"

coarse lily
#

Because they don't really care.

vernal moth
#

Say developing or programming

vestal jasper
#

"doing some dev work"

vernal moth
#

Also nothing wrong with coding

vestal jasper
#

yeah I just never find myself naturally saying it

coarse lily
#

Nothing inherently wrong with it.

#

I remember when everyone switched from saying "programmer" to "coder"

#

And it was a weird time.

vestal jasper
#

nothing inherently wrong I just feel weird using it lol

coarse lily
#

I dislike the "software engineer" thing, too. But, again. I'm old.

#

Most "software engineers" are barely writing software, let alone doing any type of engineering.

vernal moth
#

Software engineer is my official title

vestal jasper
#

I say SE when I wanna feel like I'm writing important things but in reality I just make mc mods

vernal moth
#

Writing software is engineering

coarse lily
#

Not inherently.

#

It depends on the software.

vernal moth
#

It is by definition in germany

vestal jasper
#

a person who designs, builds, or maintains engines, machines, or public works.

coarse lily
#

Ah in Germany it may be different.

waxen panther
#

yeah bro, i hack 😎

vernal moth
#

I am officially allowed to call myself an engineer

coarse lily
#

But there may be a qualification for a degree in Germany to call yourself an engineer.

vestal jasper
#

design and build (a machine or structure).

vernal moth
#

Oh yes, need a bachelor of science

coarse lily
#

In the US you used to need an engineering degree to call yourself an engineer.

#

Now people take a CSS class and write some CSS and call themselves software engineers.

#

#GetOffMyLawn

waxen panther
#

i will consider programming an engineering of sorts

vestal jasper
#

I live in the US and I see job postings calling for software engineers and I know fully well they don't mean the bridge type

waxen panther
#

well it's not like a bachelor is a particularly high level degree lol

coarse lily
#

I think a lot of proper programming is engineering in a lot of ways.

vernal moth
#

Idk, I don't care about elitism anyways

waxen panther
#

agreed

#

people can call themselves whatever they want if it makes them feel good

coarse lily
#

And I definitely don't think you need a degree.

waxen panther
#

doesn't affect me

coarse lily
#

And, yeah, call yourself whatever you want.

#

Ultimately it doesn't matter.

#

It just feels forced sometimes.

vernal moth
#

Call yourself what ever your want, it's up to the employer to find out what you can, based on your qualifications and a job interview

waxen panther
#

at the end of the day none of us will ever be as smart as terry davis so who really cares

coarse lily
#

Terry Davis is an interesting reference.

vernal moth
#

Do I want tho?

#

I don't want to be overly smart

#

Even without being overly smart I am already in a unique position at work, and it's rather annoying sometimes

The day my job title became "data engineer" is the day my linkedin connection requests became more annoying than minecraft
