no i mean video

coarse lily
#

AVI, MOV, and MP4 are movie container formats. They're generally the file extension. movie.mov, holidays.mp4 and so forth. NTSC is a standard for video formats. NTSC is mostly used in North America.

clever widget
#

like video.flv

limber knotBOT
#

only true audiophiles use wav

magic river
#

OGG is a container that can have Speex, Vorbis, or Opus in it

golden gust
#

lossless is generally a waste

coarse lily
#

flv is Flash.

spare venture
#

oh flv is the flavortown music video

magic river
#

Oh, OGG can have FLAC in it too

but why would u wanna do that

tropic flame

#

so h265 is best

magic river
#

av1 is best

ashen cliff
coarse lily
#

I mean it depends.

#

AV1 is best for some stuff.

magic river
#

h265 is best if you want it to play on your phone or TV

tropic flame
magic river
#

Game consoles do h265

coarse lily
#

It's computers. In computers there's never a "best". There's usually a "this is good for this stuff while something else is good for other stuff"

ashen cliff
#

And if you can play H265, you can play VP8.

magic river
#

XB1 and PS4 do, anyway

spare venture
#

ps5 supposedly will support 8k whenever that's a thing

magic river
clever widget
#

bruh i use 1080K

tropic flame
spare venture
#

1080K

coarse lily
tropic flame
#

unless there's other type of H265 that is not HEVC that i don't know of

magic river
#

Weird, I know the PS4 supports it for blu-ray and I know (as in I've done it) the XB1 can play them from USB

spare venture
#

remember when 1080i was a thing

magic river
#

I guess Sony is just a dick

coarse lily
#

And while you're technically correct, AV1 was designed for the internet.

tropic flame
spare venture
#

wha

tropic flame
#

1080i on the ps2

magic river
#

Name a scenario on a desktop where h265 is a better choice than av1

cedar spade
#

Thought that was Japan-only?

spare venture
#

no way ps2 did 1080i lol

magic river
#

The only reason av1 isn't always a better choice is hardware support isn't there yet

tropic flame
spare venture
#

huh

#

1080i is a fraud tho

clever widget
#

whats i

spare venture
#

apparently only GT4 did it

#

interlaced

cedar spade
#

Interlaced

clever widget
#

what

spare venture
#

that's wild because it could only do 480p

tropic flame
#

GT4 supported 480p and 1080i, basically

#

you could change that in the options of the game

clever widget
#

whats interlaced

coarse lily
#

Where you might not be using AV1.

#

Or even be exporting to AV1.

magic river
#

PS2 was 640x320 tripled to 1920x1080

coarse lily
#

I'm not trying to be pedantic. Just saying it's not universally the best format for everything.

tropic flame
# clever widget whats interlaced

basically there's interlaced and progressive. progressive basically displays an entire frame to the screen at once, while interlaced renders by lines at a time (not a very good explanation but eh someone please expand for me)

spare venture
#

interlaced is like fake pixels

magic river
#

It's universally the best format for everything when the competition is the other codecs we've been talking about

#

The only reason it isn't used in everything is it's too new

#

There are scenarios where other formats are more appropriate but those codecs aren't going to be h265

spare venture
#

interlaced is like it displays half of the pixels at any given frame

#

iirc

#

like each frame it alternates between displaying the even and odd pixels

#

supposed to be hard to perceeive but it is definitely an inferior pic

magic river
#

We're not comparing speex to vorbis here (there is no comparison, they target different things), this is like comparing mp3 and opus. Opus is always better.

clever widget
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

magic river
#

This was a bad example because Opus is better than Speex in its domain too

clever widget
#

.....................................

#

mov

tropic flame
#

mkv best video container

#

this message was sent by mkv fanboy

magic river
#

webm reigns in some of the crazy from mkv so it's probably better

clever widget
#

no

#

flv on top

magic river
#

mov is pretty flexible too though so it's mostly just a matter of what one is easier to parse or you like more

#

mov = mp4/m4v/m4a/m4p

#

So the PS2 could output 1080i but GT4 only had the UI at native resolution, the rest of the game was 640x320 with 3x scaling

plucky canopy
#

I like quicktime mov

clever widget
#

m4r is the best audio

plucky canopy
#

compression is nice

#

adobe products dont even work with mkv lmao

magic river
#

Oh wait, I misunderstood that, of course, interlaced

tropic flame
#

cuz adobe sux

magic river
#

But still, only the UI was native resolution

tropic flame
#

cuz adobe sux

clever widget
#

i hate adobe

magic river
#

Oh wait, I misunderstood that, of course, interlaced

#

But still, only the UI was native resolution

clever widget
#

why the hell should i pay a subscription to use a product

#

that should be one time

#

i dont wanna pay every month

tropic flame
#

because that way they make more money lmao

#

what other reason would there be

#

CS6 was the last batch of adobe programs that was one time payment

tropic flame
magic river
#

Paying only for upgrades does give the company some perverse incentives that make for worse software though

#

If you only pay for upgrades they need a lot of shiny new features to make it look worth it

#

But what is their incentive to fix bugs?

tropic flame
#

and then in the "decent" open source alternative it takes 8 steps to make a circle

clever widget
spare venture
#

those are the type of products that aren't supposed to be used by poor children

clever widget
#

im not poor tho

magic river
#

That's why we keep ending up with massive programs stuffed full of features that you need a degree to figure out how to use and are so buggy eventually they collapse and get replaced by some rewrite that has the "most popular" subset of features

#

But eventually expands and the cycle repeats

cunning raft
#

REEE "adobe suxs because they won't give me their stuff for free"

clever widget
#

no i think they should offer a way to pay one time instead of a subscription

#

i dont understand subscription other then more money

cunning raft
#

why would they give you a product with potential bugs in it

spare venture
#

How old are you, just wondering?

#

Everything has been moving toward a subscription model

#

Including my loot boxes

cunning raft
clever widget
#

yes but i dont understand the subscription mode

#

lwhy

cunning raft
#

instead of pushing single releases they push constant updates

spare venture
#

$5/mo for a 25% chance at getting a key daily that has a 1% chance of fat loot

magic river
#

I literally just explained why

#

One time and upgrade payments means your best choice is to make something that looks shiny but is just a facade over sloppy or incomplete code because you just have to get them in the door

#

Subscriptions you have to keep people happy so they'll keep giving you more money

#

I'd prefer if they had a system that let you pause/stop and just keep using the version you have after a while though

clever widget
#

then everyone would just buy it for 1 month then stop

#

and only buy more when theres a meaningful updates

#

then everyone would just buy it for 1 month then stop

vernal moth
#

I like the jetbrains way. Perpetual fallback to the last release if you stop paying

magic river
#

That's why you couldn't buy it for 1 month

vernal moth
#

And a set in stone release cycle

magic river
#

Yeah, Jetbrains has the best version of this I think

vernal moth
#

Also, gets cheaper the longer you are subscribed

magic river
#

It's a subscription model in the sense that you pay a yearly fee instead of per version but if you ever stop you can keep using the software

vernal moth
#

You can pay per month too, but that's obviously more expensive

magic river
#

Means you "buy" the software upfront though

#

If you pay per month how could they let you stop in the middle and keep the software?

vernal moth
#

Maybe it got a minimum?

#

Idk never cared to check

magic river
#

Yeah, I don't plan on trying to game the system and it's cheaper to pay yearly, I didn't even remember monthly was a thing

vernal moth
#

12 months of uninterrupted subscription payments qualify you for receiving a perpetual fallback license.

20% discount for uninterrupted subscription for 2nd year, 40% discount for uninterrupted subscription for 3rd year onwards.

magic river
#

Ah, so like I said, you'd have to have it for N months before you get to keep it

Does anyone know a good anti ddos service (apart from tcp shield) a ping is appreciated!

mossy vessel
#

tcp shield

knotty nebula
#

I'm still getting ddosed through tcp shield

limber knotBOT
#

huh

twin lagoon
#

doubt

#

if you're still getting ddosed through tcpshield you've got an insecure backend

knotty nebula
#

what does that mean?

limber knotBOT
#

how do u know 4 sure u gettin ddos'd through tcpshield

twin lagoon
#

hire a decent systems administrator, secure your backend, change your IP

limber knotBOT
#

how do u know u gettin ddos'd

knotty nebula
#

because I have it set up and my server is going down randomly once every 30 minutes and I'm getting alerts from my host about an attack

golden gust
#

Sooooooooo

#

They have your actual ip

potent fossil
#

whoever is attacking you has your backend ip then

#

lol

knotty nebula
#

can't people just get my ip by pinging the domain?

twin lagoon
#

no because tcpshield prevents that

limber knotBOT
#

man o man

twin lagoon
#

and cloudflare if you host a website on the sdame server

limber knotBOT
#

networks 101

potent fossil
#

they got it before they put it on tcpshield, clearly

golden gust
#

Your domain points to tcpshield

twin lagoon
#

again, hire a decent systems administrator, secure your backend

#

and change your backend IP

knotty nebula
#

so I have to get a new ip?

#

alright

golden gust
#

They, however, already got a cope of it

#

Speak to your provider

knotty nebula
#

I already ordered a new ip, when I ping it it says "timed out" is it possible that they haven't enabled it yet?

potent fossil
#

you..have to enable it yourself

#

it in the OS lol

knotty nebula
#

oh great

potent fossil
#

assuming this is a dedi

knotty nebula
#

it is a dedi, could you send in a link or something explaining how to do it?

twin lagoon
#

depends on your operating system

#

now before you do you need to secure your backend

knotty nebula
#

ubuntu 18.04

twin lagoon
#

make sure you're not exposing anything besides like ssh

#

websites should be firewalled off to cloudflare

#

gameservers firewalled off to tcpshield

knotty nebula
#

how can I enabled the ip they sent though?

magic river
potent fossil
#

@twin lagoon, basically fuck your professional advice

twin lagoon
#

netplan KEKWHYPER

potent fossil
#

u no nothing

magic river
#

If you screw it up I hope your provider has a web-based recovery console

twin lagoon
#

simple pepelove

potent fossil
#

michal pepelove

knotty nebula
#

I mean, I first have to set up the ip and then firewall

twin lagoon
#

no

#

secure your backend first

#

then set up the new ip and disable the old one

ashen cliff
#

At least move the SSH port to something else, otherwise just lock it to your own IP (if you have a static one).

twin lagoon

ashen cliff

  • disable ssh with password
golden gust
#

Majority of people are on dynamic ips

limber knotBOT
#

can ssh be DoS'd if you disallow password and interactive?

golden gust
#

Suggesting such advice as to use ip lockouts is just blind and dangerous

ashen cliff
#

You can DoS anything. kekwhyper

#

your own IP (if you have a static one)

twin lagoon
#

could just ratelimit ssh

limber knotBOT
#

well ya I just wanna know if it's worth my time 2 setup ip lockout stuff

magic river
#

fail2ban has screwed me over too many times

mental meadow
#

honestly you can enable root via ssh, leave it on port 22 and just disable password login and no one would get in if your key is at least 4k bits long

limber knotBOT
#

what would ratelimit provide

twin lagoon
#

i wouldn't bother w/ fail2ban

ashen cliff
#

Till someone creates an exploit.

limber knotBOT
#

wouldn't that be a self-inflicted DoS

magic river
#

I have a bunch of keys and if I forget to modify my ssh config to tell it which one to use ssh defaults to trying all of them until one works and that's a bunch of login failures that cause you to be banned from your own server

Probably the latter

I'd say so too, 4K60 without RT doesn't seem to be too difficult on a next-gen console.

magic river
#

RE7 was pretty technically impressive so I could believe 4K60 in a demo depending on what they have on screen

spare venture
#

The PS5 is more powerful than you think, too.

magic river
#

Most games on PS5 are not going to be 4K60

spare venture
#

RE7 had checkerboard 4K on PS4 pro iirc

magic river
#

If you're lucky they'll have an option for 2K60 or 4K30

spare venture
#

Yeah demons souls was 4k30 or 1080 60 I believe

magic river
#

More likely most games will just be 30 fps no matter the resolution

spare venture
#

Mightโ€™ve been dynamic 60

wide chasm
#

Depends on what the game does of course, but it wouldn't be the first game hitting 4K60

spare venture
#

Nah most games have performance or resolution mode

#

60 + dynamic or 4K30

Best Buy for me was the worst one for bots on release

GIVE ME EVERYTHING ALREADY

magic river
#

They release it in batches, you have to wait for the add to cart button to go yellow again and try to get one if not you have to wait some more

#

Instead of dumping all their inventory in the system at once and having bots grab most of it

spare venture
#

Ah

#

Yeah on release day they randomly dumped it and it was in stock for less than a second

#

Does PlayStation direct still do their queue thing? That was for me the easiest way

I camped every vendor 24/7 for a week straight to get mine haha

It's like Assassin's Creed, they're just using the name and making different games now

Yeah itโ€™s definitely 60 fps

Has some motion blur which is tilting

When you turn too fast

Feels much higher quality than RE7

Game Pass Ultimate is only 50% more than Gold now

#

If you pay monthly it's slightly less than 50% more

#

Also Game Pass for PC is now cheaper than Gold (which you don't need on PC)

#

So for less than what console players pay just to get online PC players get free games

Itโ€™s definitely 4K 60 with ray tracing, but I havenโ€™t gotten into combat so Iโ€™ll see

that sure is some exploit

my computer just freaked out

it started glitching and all my screens went black

#

then the 2 of my screens that were connected to my other gpu were dead

spare venture
#

Coordinate exploit?

clever widget
#

i blame sony vegas

coarse lily
#

What's the exploit?

magic river
#

iirc you can set a flag to have the client not show coordinates on F3 but that gets around it

#

This ignores the fact that the client obviously knows where they are and it's a simple mod to show that

spare venture
#

Yeah

worn ember
magic river
#

You can write a server mod that gives players a random offset and patches every packet involving coords to/from that client to apply the offset

#

Can't do it from a plugin, although I suspect people here will disagree with my definitions ๐Ÿ˜„

#

(you'd use protocolib to do it)

#

I guess you could say protocolib is the mod and your thing is still a plugin

coarse lily
#

Now I'm confused on your definitions :)

#

ProtocolLib is a bukkit plugin.

clever widget
coarse lily
#

So you're saying you could write another bukkit plugin to do that? Or no?

void void
#

the exploit?

magic river
#

Interfacing with defined API: plugin. Poking in to internals to make it work in ways the API doesn't allow: mod.

#

CraftBukkit is also a mod since the vanilla server has no plugin API

#

CraftBukkit is a mod that allows plugins to exists, protocolib is a mod that expands what plugins can do

coarse lily
#

Right but in the Minecraft world we use Patches (for servers), mods (for forge), and plugins (for bukkit/Paper plugins).

magic river
#

In other games what they call mods are plugins

#

Well, in some games

coarse lily
#

So a plugin could leverage ProtocolLib to do what you're saying?

#

Or there'd need to be a server patch?

magic river
#

A plugin using protocollib could do what I suggested to completely block the ability for a client to know where they really are, yes

#

protocollib isn't a plugin though

cosmic raft
#

the differences in memory are interesting

magic river
#

It uses the CraftBukkit plugin loader to get itself in to the server but it then bypasses the plugin API to do new things

To me a plugin that leverage NMS heavily (or even exclusively) is still a plugin.

#

If it goes into the /plugins/ dir. :)

potent fossil
#

at the end of the day it comes down to semantics

coarse lily
#

True

#

But the semantics in this case are important.

#

To properly understand.

#

Or at least - to add clarity

potent fossil
#

Sure, semantics are good. But you're both right is what I mean

clever widget
#

can someone fix my computer

coarse lily
#

Oh yeah I'm not saying he's wrong

magic river
#

Reseat the GPU, get better cooling, buy a new GPU

#

In that order

coarse lily
#

Just that I was trying to properly understand

clever widget
coarse lily
#

No idea. What's the exploit?

magic river
#

Yes, to block seeing coordinates in crash logs you'd have to modify the server to send fake coordinates

#

But you can't just send random coords, they all still have to be correct relative to each other

coarse lily
#

Ah that's the exploit? The player coords dump to the client crash logs?

magic river
#

It's not a bug ๐Ÿ˜›

void void
#

true, game mechanic i guess

magic river
#

Most servers want their players to see the coords

clever widget
#

wait why wouldnt you want people to see coordinates

magic river
#

hardcorepvp thing, probably

coarse lily
#

If it's causing your client to crash and you can just see your own coords, it's not really an "exploit"

#

Because it doesn't negatively impact the server

void void
#

@coarse lily it shows other peoples too

warm anchor
coarse lily
#

Other people on the server or near you?

flint island
#

Nice idea, drop support for 1.16.4 soo fast 1.16.5 is out (not all plugins work in new version) and if you use paper the update not fix anything important.

magic river
#

Fun fact: the client always knows where people near it are

void void
#

i am right about that correct? @magic river

magic river
#

Even if you obfuscate the coords that doesn't stop someone from modding their client to add tracers or something to point at those players

coarse lily
#

But showing their bed coords, which is not near the client, is kinda interesting.

spare venture
#

Yeah what is the exploit here? And how is it game breaking?

#

Your client has to render shit and know the position of stuff

coarse lily
#

If you're at 0,0 and their respawn is 2k,2k and you crash the game and it spits out 2k,2k that seems like a bit of a bug.

#

Not a huge bug, but a bit of one.

warm anchor
#

~~But meh anarchy server that no one cares about ~~

magic river

It shows the bed locations of other players?

can't fix it with a plugin though

coarse lily
#

I'm dubious.

#

Is there a link? Or a video showing it?

#

Can you reproduce it?

spare venture
#

Why would the server send your client the spawn point of other players

#

Thatโ€™s weird

coarse lily
#

Agreed.

#

You know for a fact it works on paper?

magic river
#

I'm looking at the packets and not seeing anywhere it would send that information

warm anchor
#

I like how he managed to type an oxymoron in one sentence

spare venture
#

Try it on 1.16.5 latest

magic river
#

I agree you can use F3-C to get your own coordinates and maybe even your own spawn coordinates

#

But not other people

spare venture
#

Link

coarse lily
#

It sounds like misdirection. Like someone is claiming it does this, but it won't show other people's coords, and they have your coords some other way?

magic river
#

Well, you can probably get the coords of other people who are near you, like I said before, but not their spawn coordinates

coarse lily
magic river

F3-C will always show you the players that are close to you

coarse lily

magic river

The bug here is that the client is being sent updates for a player that isn't close to them anymore

spare venture

This is an order of operations issue, probably in EntityTracker.java
