#

i work 35 mins outside of seattle

golden gust
#

30 minutes outside of seatle is travelin distance

#

So

magic river
#

It was $1500/mo for 1200 sq ft about an hour out of Miami, although that was before things started going crazy these last couple years

golden gust
#

You are impacted by events in seattle still

magic river
#

Kind of crazy, an hour out of Miami was still solid city more or less the whole way

spare venture
#

rent shouldn’t be the same in that blue dot as it is in downtown seattle

warm anchor
#

that's probably $2000+ now Amaranth

golden gust
#

rents go up in seattle, rents rise within the travel area too generally given that people start flooding out

#

Welcome to how the market works

magic river
#

$1500 in 2018, $2000 in 2022, I could see that

spare venture
#

yeah i’m moving

golden gust
#

seattle is hostile af towards landlords, and so everybody basically gets fucked over

worn ember
#

dont pay that much then

#

ez

foggy veldt
spare venture
#

yeah there’s people that haven’t paid rent still since 2019

warm anchor
golden gust
#

the cost of rent in the centre rises up, and so people start tryna flood out towards the neighbouring areas

#

thus, increasing rents there

spare venture
#

there’s been an eviction moratorium in seattle since fall 2019

warm anchor
#

and the price of neighborhood goes up too!

#

yeah it's so dumb!

vernal moth
#

Remember guys, the market is the solution to everything

warm anchor
#

The worse part is it drives the locals away as they no longer able to afford rent

golden gust
#

I mean

warm anchor
#

in their own home town

golden gust
#

it's not even a free market there

vernal moth
#

Enternal growth is the highest goal!

golden gust
#

I mean, once agian, it's not a market issue

spare venture
#

there’s a brand new luxury apartment building going up next to me with thousands of units but you can’t make more than $45,000 to live there

it's a local gov puts their hand too much into stuff and refuses to deal with shit

#

yeah seattle requires 6 months notice of rent increase and i believe it can’t be higher than 20%

golden gust
#

it's like an increasing population an you refuse to allow companies to build more dense housing and you're surprise that you're running out of affordable housing

spare venture
#

but i don’t live in seattle, my notice is only 60 days and there is no limit on rent increases. the joy of getting seattle’s problems but not the benefits

golden gust
#

people whom build new buildings to solve this issue are literally fucking off out of the area cos they can't get shit done

mcmmo is good if you aren’t going to make your server unique and need a quick and easy way to add content to your server

magic river

wow, one of the last quests in the new pokemon finally does a puzzle but the dude that gives you the quest also tells you how to solve the puzzle

neat oyster

i play in a server with mcmmo and idk how to use it and didn't bother to check

i hate how much they dumbed down video games

after my update the only public plugins i’ll be using are like towny, holograms, worldedit, and a chat plugin

left swift
#

not like the other servers

spare venture
#

exactly

magic river
#

It's not a very complicated puzzle anyway, some switches and you have to figure out what way to flip them

#

But they told you what to look at to figure out how to do it...

where is authme and cmi

I was actually thinking about buying a switch just for that pokemon game

and ferraris

The actual running around doing side quests, gathering resources, and catching/fighting pokemon seems fun

#

Way better than old versions

worn ember
#

you mean pokemon go

magic river

The main quest stuff seems kind of bleh although has some boss fights that involve iframes

So it's not you cheesing the fight with iframes, they expect you to use that mechanic

just think of it as using 3 beds to defeat the enderdragon

The boss fights are you vs a pokemon, not your pokemon vs a pokemon

never got into halo

so no clue what its even about

Angels, obviously

#

i get that the halo game wouldn’t be a good tv show, but you could probably adapt it into some story

#

instead of just rewriting it entirely

left swift
#

halo games are about that beyonce song

Halo game was turned in to a decent YA book so it could be a TV show

Early tech world: make games out of movies
current tech world: make movies out of games

#

disney: why not both

spare venture
#

they’ve been making movies out of games since the 90s

magic river
#

Movies have always had a lot of adaptations of books, plays, radio shows, etc

#

It just took time for games to have enough story to them for it to make sense

spare venture
#

yeah

magic river
#

Everyone would rather copy someone else's story than write their own 😛

#

Every studio anyway

spare venture
#

what is an example of a successful one tho

magic river
#

Mortal Kombat?

spare venture
#

yeah i guess haha

#

uncharted is getting a movie with A list actors

neat oyster
#

im waiting for it

#

i loved uncharted 4

magic river
#

Super Mario Bros (1993) was a good movie and I don't care who says otherwise 😄

#

That's some top tier B-movie trash

#

According to critic reviews, Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva was a pretty good movie adaption of a video game. Not that most people know the game, but still.

spare venture
#

last of us also getting a tv show with tv a list actors

#

those are no brainers. a lot of sony’s story games could be easy tv show adaptations

yeah that was a popular one

#

Oh hey 99942 Apophis isn't supposed to crash in to us anymore

#

I remember reading about that one in high school, scientists thought it might crash in to the Earth in 2029

#

Now we know it's just going to be really close

#

Like, closer than geostationary orbit

warm anchor
#

I can’t tell if amaranth is happy or sad about this news PepeLa

magic river
#

Relieved but also a little disappointed 😛

#

Though we now know Apophis won't strike Earth in the near future, the asteroid has sat at the top of the European Space Agency's "impact risk list" of PHAs and NASA's Sentry Risk Table for 17 years.

#

lol, Apple released an app to make every AirTag near you beep so you could find them if someone was tracking you

#

So now people are selling modified AirTags that have the speaker disabled

golden gust
#

jesus f

magic river
little frost
#

apple-tier solution

magic river
#

Oh and the speaker is actually just making that bit of metal there vibrate, apparently?

#

So you can make a "silent" airtag by taping it down real good

golden gust
#

if they're supposed to be reasonably contained semi makes sense

magic river
#

Oh, the beeping is supposed to happen whenever it gets out of range of the phone it's paired to?

#

I don't actually know how these work

golden gust
#

But, I mean, this thing has practically just been an unmitigated disaster

magic river
#

I know some LTT folks slipped one in Linus's jeans so they could track him around his house once

golden gust
#

apparently there is a wider effort in part to make bluetooth devices able to alert somebody that they're tracking them or something

warm anchor
#

it makes noise when you near one yeah

still sorrel
#

Guice was a mistake

#

any static util class I had that needs a dependency now needs to refactored which causes the classes that depend on that to need refactoring too

#

and this goes on creating a butterfly effect

magic river
#

static and needs a dependency is an oxymoron

#

I think what you're looking for is a singleton

#

Which you can do with guice

still sorrel
#

when I have classes (that have dependencies) that are meant to be instantiated multiple times by a singleton, I'd have to manually pass those.

grand mesa
#

How can I transfer my files in google drive to my server?

upbeat falconBOT
warm anchor
#

I like this guy google. He knows so many stuffs

still sorrel
#

which means that classes like a Player or ItemStack class fundamentally cannot have dependencies when working with Guice

#

if those classes where in my project

magic river
#

If you're injecting Bukkit classes you're doing it wrong 😛

still sorrel
#

yeah not bukkit classes

#

but lets say I have the class MusicAlbum

grand mesa
#

How can I transfer my files in google drive to my server?

still sorrel
#

this MusicAlbum class is meant to be instantiated multiple times and just hold data

#

it cannot have any dependencies

#

you could pass those when instantiating the class but then the entire concept of DI is just thrown out of the window

glass crag
#

its not really, that's exactly what DI is

magic river
#

Since you ignored my attempt to do it for you

lavish compass

or rclone

guice supports on demand injection..

worn ember
#

@wide chasm does this fall under advertising? kek

magic river
#

@last coral this is a place for server owners and plugin developers (and old folks telling the kids about the good old days), you're unlikely to find anyone here

#

And it's against the rules to post such things

last coral
#

my bad, i read the rules wrong! ill delete my message

magic river
#

Step 1: Don't

#

Option 2: Sell builds, link to github still

#

Not GPL compatible ones

golden gust
#

open source

#

prevents skidding

#

I mean, those two concepts sorta like

#

don't go together at all

magic river
#

They aren't even really open source, those are called "source available" licenses

golden gust
#

^^

magic river
#

You can look but not touch so they're worthless except for helping the owner find bugs/exploits

golden gust
#

as said, the source available licenses can kinda do that, but, generally pointless

#

are you gonna have the cash to take somebody to court to enforce it?

magic river
#

They're also not GPL compatible so you'd still be violating my license

ancient bolt
#

it's okay to only distribute sources to those who buy your software

#

however, you can't restrict them from doing whatever they like with it

#

including redistributing it themselves

#

it's the bullshit which we call GPL

magic river
#

Want me to get some scary paper? What's your plugin? 🙂

spare venture
#

not if they see this message

ancient bolt
#

you can put whatever you want on your resume

#

license has nothing to do with it

novel horizon
#

i mean

spare venture
#

then dont

ancient bolt
#

then you don't actually want to remain anonymous

magic river
#

How does the license help with that?

spare venture
#

you want the credit for it but don’t want to be known for it?

#

that’s what you just said..

ancient bolt
#

if you want your name associated with a project in 1 place but not another, that's fine, just do that. If someone doxes you and figures out who you are then theres nothing you can really do about that

#

I fail to see how that is a big deal

#

I'm a much larger name in the minecraft community than you likely will ever be, and you can easily find my real name and linked in if you are so inclined, and I haven't had any issues at all because of that

golden gust
#

I like the attribution cos it shows what I do

#

and, you can't really dox me all too much if my info is there

spare venture
#

tell that to people who have been swatted

golden gust
#

I mean

#

even if you seperate shit out, if people really wanna dox you they can

#

Welcome to the internet where people upload way too much info out there

novel horizon
#

Sure

golden gust
#

99% of people who say that they're anonymous can be dox'd if somebody cares to put in the time

#

I've seen it time and time again where somebody acts like a touche douche, pulls off a scam and acts like they're undoxable and then shit goes down

warm anchor
#

Tbf if I am a Minecraft anti-cheat developer I may not want others to know :

spare venture
#

i didn’t have beef with andrewkm and he doxxed me for a month straight because i would talk in here

#

same with wiz, don’t think wiz ever did anything to that guy

golden gust
#

god, I can't wait to leave this ecosystem

ancient bolt
#

look, if someone is going to swat you, there's likely very little you can do to actually stop them from doing so

golden gust
#

Yea, it is

#

but, with acid rain

spare venture
#

yeah if psychos like that want to, they’ll do it

golden gust
#

you wake up, go to wash your face in the morning, lose a few skin layers

warm anchor
#

It is really. You will do much better outside of MC as java developer

#

It’s like a shitbox

magic river
#

I used to put my address and phone number on my about page on my personal website 😛

spare venture
#

well yeah people mainly only do it as a passion

#

i think he meant a job?

magic river
#

That was like 3 domain names and 15 years ago

golden gust
#

yea, stuff has changed a lot since then

#

IRC networks all used to expose your IP address and nobody cared

warm anchor
#

Damn you mean if I try hard though I can send amaranth a anime bodypillow??

magic river
#

I was getting press people contacting me for shit, thought it would be useful

golden gust
#

like, IP addresses used to be much more public on stuff like forums, etc

magic river
#

They were just contacting me to find the two other people who worked on a project with me which was a real sadge moment 😛

spare venture
#

the internet has changed a lot since then and so has the people using it

golden gust
#

oof

#

Feel the love, amar

ancient bolt
warm anchor
#

Access to internet was already limited to begin with

#

So the risk of privacy related thing wasn’t really a big thing back then

magic river
#

I'm not even named, the other two are though 😛

#

To be fair I mostly did the HTTP and WebObjects stuff, figuring out how to actually do stuff on the store

#

They were the ones that reversed the encryption key and such

golden gust
#

I mean, that basically use to be the case

#

ofc, now it's all changed

#

TOR, etc

warm anchor
#

pepecross ~~omg they already know you live in basement back then ~~ j

golden gust
#

and, I mean, it's naunced, in some ways you wanna know where shit is

#

in other ways, what about the whistleblowers?

magic river
#

lol, I used to climb out my bedroom window and program sitting on the porch roof back then

golden gust
#

TOR is compromised anyways 😄

magic river
#

(because I was stealing the neighbor's wifi and the signal was better)

golden gust
#

god, those where the days

#

back when unsecure wifi was still somewhat of a thing

warm anchor
#

Or default password

golden gust
#

I remember if we had the wii in one spot it would manage to connect to somebodies wireless when ours was out

#

well, yea

magic river
#

They bought a second router with the same name but only one was connected to their modem, I couldn't get my laptop to consistently use the "right" one

golden gust
#

big thing is finding a vulv good enough to take advantage of

magic river
#

So I changed the name of the wrong one once when I got connected to it, two days later they had a password on it

golden gust
#

well, yea, but having access to that stuff on its own is useless

#

its how do you get in there and have enough control to do botnet stuff

left swift
#

I would say not changing the default password on a router is a vulnerability

golden gust
#

theres shit scanning the web 24/7

#

go on that one site and they literally have public passwordless webcams

novel horizon
#

There's shit scanning the web for a lot of things

golden gust
#

it's nothing new that theres stuff scanning for this, it'sjust nobody ever really found a large enough usecase to do it

novel horizon
#

If you use some CMS and panels etc. it also scans for that, quite funny

golden gust
#

Well, scanning can have issues for the network

magic river
#

My public web server on my desktop gets hit by about 100 things a day

golden gust
#

e.g. blacklisting

#

it's all fun and games until you get spamhaus'd

magic river
#

You can scan every single IPv4 address for something simple in like an hour, iirc

golden gust
#

Theres companies which operate honeypots looking for people doing scanning

magic river
#

If you're looking for all open ports on every IP or looking for a specific service with a response you'll need longer

golden gust
#

they probs have some sanity to prevent misses where they took an IP over, but, yea

left swift
#

ah

magic river
#

There are only 4 billion IPs to go through

#

And large chunks are private/internal/multicast so you can skip them

golden gust
#

there are companies whose sole job is to look for exposed vulv ports and such

magic river
#

It kind of is

golden gust
#

some providers care about that stuff, some don't

magic river
#

Like, Apple might use a bunch of its allocated IPs for internal only and you can't really tell that

#

But you can skip the ones that are only allowed to be internal at least

golden gust
#

you have the standard agreed upon ones

#

127./8, etc

magic river
#

Right, local ips there are only like 3 ranges you can use

golden gust
#

or, wait, no, that wasn't /8 actually iirc

magic river
#

Well, internal

golden gust
#

oh, yea, it was

magic river
#

Local there is only one range

golden gust
magic river
#

So 4 billion total and over half a billion you can skip right away

#

You can see why this doesn't take too long

golden gust
#

Yes

#

I got hit by it once

#

LXC default account

mighty storm
#

password is just cat

golden gust
#

I fucking forgot they did that

#

I mean, it kinda makes sense but is kinda dumb at the same time

#

there was a default ubuntu user

#

no

#

because they crawl the web

#

not ping everybody

#

you can tell google not to scan your website

spare venture
#

people probably don’t care

golden gust
#

and it's generally agreed upon by people that having google index your site is better than google not indexing your site

spare venture
#

google doesn’t have every website

golden gust
#

I mean, that's literally the entire point

#

if you want to even show up on google, you need to let them see your site

cunning raft
#

they don't

mighty storm
#

search console

cunning raft
#

or you can submit them

#

yes but i don't think they do that

mighty storm
#

why would they

#

theyre crawlers not stalkers

cunning raft
#

not scalable

spare venture
#

the goal of google isn’t to index every crevice of the internet

cunning raft
#

nor needed

#

when you register a new domain chances are it has no content

magic river
#

iirc when Google started they pointed at yahoo.com, set it to page rank 10, and then crawled from there

#

If you couldn't trace a link chain from your website back up to yahoo's directory then it wouldn't show up in Google

#

When Google started it was still almost feasible for everything on the WWW to be manually cataloged and Yahoo was the place where that happened

warm anchor
#

Google is getting a lot better at those nowaday

#

I mean they got decade worth of improvement and ugh other practices 😉

#

Chance of someone clicking something that’s not on first page is really low

magic river
#

I mostly only see those kinds of sites anymore when looking for... alternative sources of media

warm anchor
magic river
#

Did you search for "minecraft paper youtube"?

#

first page is nothing but youtube videos for me

#

Ok sure if you go to the third page you see that kind of shit

#

But if you get to the third page you should probably give up or try different search terms

#

Google's main goal wasn't getting rid of those sites, just making them not show up on the first page

golden gust
#

Yes, pornhub deleted everything that wasn't from a verified porn star

warm anchor
#

They did a purge thing. Only verified video exist now

magic river
#

Because it used to be youtube for porn and people uploaded revenge porn to it

#

I think it was even underage revenge porn that triggered the purge

golden gust
#

there was much stuff which went under the radar as they kinda sucked at moderation, #BigSurprise

#

So, purge of it all kinda makes sense

#

I wouldn't be surprised if they kept some stuff for the sake of investigations but it also wouldn't surprise me if they just perma yeeted it to get it out of their hands

Do the stuff California requires: documentation on who is in the videos

Well, I mean, that's part of the long standing stuff which nobody has really figured out properly yet

Well, no, the documentation just sits on the back

its up to people to tag stuff still generally

You can't rely on community votes/reports to moderate child porn and revenge porn

that makes sense, every time i’ve ever used tor it tells you never to let it resize to your window

me as somebody who freeforms the window size makes it much easier to track me, until I resize it

but, all it takes is for a site to monitor that and trace it

hah you cant test with a real tracker on tor kek

I'm slightly more unique now that I set up canvas, webgl, and audio fingerprint protection

worn ember

They can detect I have fingerprint protection which is a marker in itself but not as much as the actual fingerprint was

So now the main thing is my user agent, time zone, and window size

I’m sure that a great % of the GTA 5 sales are because of the storyline. Many people in fact only play the game for the storyline, since the Online version is substantially different. The storyline however has been part of the game for a very long time and it makes absolutely no sense for them to remove it, and as another point, the game still sold quite well even when it didn’t have online

most free services are just loss leader adverts for paid services, and people with a free domain are unlikely to ever purchase paid stuff so there's no point supporting them

Is there a way to disable enderman griefing?

lament patio
#

There's /gamerule mobGriefing false but that messes with other stuff, the way to prevent only that type of mob griefing would be a plugin

WorldGuard. 🛌

Are there any servers that actually use essentials protect?

cunning raft
#

11k of them

foggy veldt
#

I wonder how many actually use it though or if they just downloaded bundled zip if it’s still distributed like that

#

I remember I would install essentialsxmpp and all the other shit I didn’t need because I didn’t know what I was doing

cunning raft
#

it's a download page now

is the hate against her justified?

i think anyone with NFTs as their profile picture definitely has it coming

#

Yea, and pretty sure that's actually newer than required, so, god knows

#

I mean, the joy with NFTs is that people are buying them up

#

which is funny cos you've got the crypto bros and then all the celebs who shout for climate change buying them all up or at least supporting them

mossy vessel
#

Imagine owning art that isn't an NFT

void void
#

wont be surprised if that NFT maker got all those celebs to buy by promising that their support would skyrocket its value

#

like gary vee did with crypto punks

#

too bad 0 regulation

magic river
#

A celeb getting involved in something like that is either a believer or looking for a pump and dump

#

Well, I guess they could just be idiots but I'm cynical

#

...as if believing in NFTs doesn't mean you're an idiot

#

You know what I mean 😛

if if looks like a pump n dump, smells like a pump n dump...

i’m a firm believer in NFTs need to die

It will. But only after it milks well off people dry.

I coded a plugin that is so distracting to have in your server that I no longer can no longer work on it for longer then 5 minutes without getting distracted and ending up playing with it for 2 hours
