#

but i have

font-size: 1.7em;
color: #fff;
text-transform: uppercase;
float: left;
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;
}```

#

and it still shows the line under the header

#

📎 unknown.png

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:49 PM

#

because its in a body tag?

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:49 PM

#

its in <body> <header>

#

#

i mean <h1 class="logo">

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:50 PM

#

take the footer out of the body tag

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:50 PM

#

<div class="container">
    <h1 class="logo>

#

ok

#

now the footer is gone, but the decloration is till there

#

decoration

#

                <h1 class="logo"><a href="{{ url_for('home') }}"><b>Bored Corner</b></a></h1>```

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:52 PM

#

I dont even know.....

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:52 PM

#

its very messed up

#

idk why

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:53 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:53 PM

#

or i could replace it with an image, but the thing is after that theres the footer problem

#

where the stupid footer wont work with CSS

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:54 PM

#

are you using footer {stuff} or .footer {stuff}?

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:54 PM

#

footer {stuff}

#

📎 unknown.png

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:55 PM

#

ok good

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:55 PM

#

but it doesnt want to work with ANYTHING...

#

also the text padding i was using padding-top and it doesnt do anything

#

@thin hull i removed the link and heres how its supposed to look

📎 unknown.png

#

and i add padding and it doesnt move down?

thin hull May 13, 2018, 11:56 PM

#

add more?

storm plume May 13, 2018, 11:57 PM

#

i went from 10px to 100px and no change

#

ima try to do it with an image and see how it goes

#

@thin hull just to make sure the alt is for the alternative text to be displayed if image cant be loaded right?

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:00 AM

#

yes

storm plume May 14, 2018, 12:00 AM

#

ok

#

ok this looks a bit ugly lol

#

📎 unknown.png

#

@thin hull fixed but now the buttons wont go up to header

📎 unknown.png

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:09 AM

#

are they in the header?

storm plume May 14, 2018, 12:12 AM

#

yeah

#

the code

#

@thin hull

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:19 AM

#

??

storm plume May 14, 2018, 12:21 AM

#

its in the header code

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:22 AM

#

ok... do they have padding on them or something?

storm plume May 14, 2018, 12:23 AM

#

nope

#

.menu {
float: right;
margin-top: 8px;
}

.menu li {
display: inline;
}

.menu li + li {
margin-left: 35px;
}

.menu li a {
color: #444;
text-decoration: none;
}```

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:34 AM

#

idk

storm plume May 14, 2018, 12:34 AM

#

i have no idea either

#

css doesnt want to work...

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:35 AM

#

are the classes matched?

thin hull May 14, 2018, 12:59 AM

#

There isn't a better way to do this.... right?

📎 unknown.png

storm plume May 14, 2018, 1:24 AM

#

@thin hull everything is matched...

#

or can you help me rewrite the whole thing lol

thin hull May 14, 2018, 1:25 AM

#

im already doing something right now, sorry

storm plume May 14, 2018, 1:25 AM

#

oh ok

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:25 AM

#

@thin hull i found out, IT DOES WORK. When I edit the css in chrome, but for some reason when I edit in np++ it doesnt save to the file

#

thats why it wasnt updating

#

but I still cannot find out why its not updating the file...

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:26 AM

#

did you save?

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:26 AM

#

look

📎 unknown.png

#

i have been pressing save and NP++ says it has saved

#

then i check chrome, and it wasnt there

#

and i decide to paste the same code from NP++ to chrome and IT WORKS.

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:27 AM

#

did you re-open the html page in chrome?

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:27 AM

#

i reloaded it

#

but for some reason it doesnt want to work with my code

#

@thin hull i reloaded and it disappeared...

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:29 AM

#

because you edited what it used, not the file....

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:29 AM

#

yeah i saved it again when its not running

#

still doesnt want to work with it

#

@thin hull if i exit and reopen the code is still there

#

ima relaunch everything

#

yep same problem

#

the file is saved, but the webpage decides not to follow it

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:31 AM

#

is it included in the html?

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:32 AM

#

yes

#

and something weird is going on

#

i moved the file out, relaunched and the css is STILL on the webpage

#

i moved to my desktop and somehow its still accessing a css file???

#

@thin hull it seems like theres a Ghost file i cannot see

#

i renamed the path on the html and it disappeared, renamed it and it reappeared

#

even though the file does not exist

#

@thin hull ok it seems im not the only one with this issue, its an issue with FLASK itself

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

ok then

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:39 AM

#

still dont know how to resolve lol

grand hornet May 14, 2018, 2:39 AM

#

I don't understand why you're not just coding with mamp or wamp and using livereload

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:40 AM

#

@grand hornet im working with Flask

grand hornet May 14, 2018, 2:40 AM

#

So basically you're coding directly into chrome devtools

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:40 AM

#

Python import flask and NP++

#

i can use VS code if you want

#

@grand hornet do you know why its grabbing the css when it first created not when i update it?

#

@thin hull FINALLY i found out, i needed to FORCE the refresh by using SHIFT+f5 and it finally shows up!!!

#

literally 3 hours for this

thin hull May 14, 2018, 2:42 AM

#

.....

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:42 AM

#

changed so much code for nothing

#

i was using f5 and thought it would refresh

#

but i needed to "force" it

grand hornet May 14, 2018, 2:42 AM

#

CTRL + F5 not shift

#

Whatever you're doing, it's wrong. You should have no cache enabled for local environment

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:43 AM

#

Shift f5 worked for me

#

apparently CTRL f5 also works

#

ok so i need to force the refresh every time i update my css

grand hornet May 14, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

🤦

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

if i just refresh it nothing happens

#

i need to force everytime

grand hornet May 14, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

Or disable caching

storm plume May 14, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

in chrome>

#

?

thin hull May 14, 2018, 3:15 AM

#

FINALLY DONE MY FUCKING LIST! now I only need to update it whenever Intel or AMD release a new socket...

#

also apparently Socket TR4 is also known as Socket SP3r2...

#

.... apparently since i used indexes... i get IndexOutOfRangeExceptions.... so now i have to go through and change all 57 lines to use Add() instead..... someone shoot me now...

thin hull May 14, 2018, 3:45 AM

#

just over half way done....

thin hull May 14, 2018, 4:03 AM

@dapper laurel ty

candid mural May 15, 2018, 3:21 AM

#

me and a friend are having this debate of what is good code...
i think it's not having thousands of files to make a program work. but having enough so everybody can work on the project without modifying the same files.
he is thinking it's having one class do one thing.
the example is a countdown script. he wants a static class separated from either our model - view - controller classes.
i want it to be included in the controller since it interact with the logics. and also because we are only two working on this project...
what are your thoughts on this ?

proper gale May 15, 2018, 3:26 AM

#

@candid mural nobody follows MVC

#

nobody.

#

one class does one thing, and all of the thing related to it.

#

a timer is can make itself, time itself, and looks like a timer, not just one of them.

candid mural May 15, 2018, 4:25 AM

#

so you would rather have 30 files for 30 classes ?

proper gale May 15, 2018, 4:26 AM

#

60

#

header and implementation

#

30 in an integrated language.

candid mural May 15, 2018, 4:26 AM

#

c#

proper gale May 15, 2018, 4:26 AM

#

30

whole quail May 15, 2018, 5:42 AM

#

Don't make a new class unless you actually need one

#

If you actually read what your code does a lot of the time you will find that you really don't need a class for it

#

Unless you are using java

#

But then just don't use java

#

If you are using any other language don't create a class unless the class is actually going to do something

#

Most likely there's a better feature in the language to do exactly what you want

#

For your countdown script example you probably only need 1 class anyway lol

#

2 at most

Alright, So I am developing a fiverr like platform for a specific community. Freelancers will be primarily developers. I would like a system that allows the clients to pay a couple bucks extra to have a repo created that is hosted internally on my platforms servers. And I would like them to be able to give the developers they hire access to that repo so that when they pay a developer for a product, they can also get manage the source in case they want updates or something later say from another developer. But I would also like it to be easy for the developer to commit to the repo. I also need customizability like automatic branch creation for each developer that gets access to the repo so that the master is never actually touched without the client merging them in an easy interface. The Issue with this is that I cant use enterprise git. as the cost is per seat which would be in theory per developer or per both developer and client. Which I cant charge both clients and developers monthly to cover the costs of that. I know there is alternative repo management systems but I have no experience with any of them. Managers such as Nexus and what not. Does anyone have experience with systems like these and if so can You give advice on what I should use for this project. Appreciated.

Is Floatplane still under development?

proper gale May 23, 2018, 5:41 PM

#

yes

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 5:44 PM

#

I'm interested in how it serves video

#

do they place the transcoding burden on the creator?

#

do they try to save on egress by serving smaller resolutions when possible or just serve the same res all the time?

#

Disregarding the total lack of notoriety, is it at least a technically viable alternative for Youtubers who were completely demonetized or post dangerous or offensive material?

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:09 PM

#

That's kinda the goal

#

To be a second source of income outside of youtube

#

But if it's actually not appropriate of course it won't be allowed

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:11 PM

#

Curation is not a bad thing

#

I think mousetrap mondays was an interesting case. the guy shows dead mice and constantly got flagged

#

There's nothing about that in youtube's policy

#

but if you get flagged a lot, youtube is going to find it hard to believe you're not some kind of baddie, like a spammer, pirate, uploading porn, etc

#

Machine learning is going to reflect the mores of the masses. Curation can do better

#

but Vidme apparently did not survive their attempt to be a youtube alternative

#

And I'm suspicous it was that they hosted in a wasteful way

#

I think floatplane could achieve storage/cpu/egress costs 100th of Youtube's on a per-second-of-original-video basis by supporting fewer platforms, sticking with the best-in-class compression, and putting some of the transcoding burden on creators

#

Asking creators to transcode their content to AV1 at multiple resolutions is not a crazy idea when your creators are mostly enthusiasts that build powerful computers

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

Floatplane isn't a youtube alternative

#

It's to supplement other platforms

#

Also floatplane transcodes it serverside

#

It works a lot like youtube

#

Just with a better bitrate and simpler player

#

Also costs aren't an issue when the people using the service pay for it

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:26 PM

#

They still are an issue

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:27 PM

#

Not really, the hosting costs won't be outrageous

#

How often will things be uploaded?

#

It will be creators who are already established

#

So not that often

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:28 PM

#

the biggest hosting cost will likely be egress. Aws charges about $0.1/GB

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

And unless it costs like 5 cents each view for hosting they will be fine

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

That's probably why they aren't doing 4k, because 1 view would be about a GB

#

With some limitations though, their current monthly price probably would allow them to break even on hosting

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

They already break even

#

They have for a long time

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

Well that's good news

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

I'm pretty sure it's not just even but an actual revenue source

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

I wish them luck really, and I hope they do eventually open up to more creators, and add some better discovery features

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

I don't think you understand what it is

#

There are no discovery features

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

yeah, that's a problem isn't it?

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

No...

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

probably the only reason I haven't yet tried it

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

You have to pay money for each creator

#

What are they going to do

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

what kinds of videos exactly can you find there? I have no idea

#

There aren't even thumbnails

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

Advertise other creators and then popup saying "Just pay for a month of access now to watch the video"

#

It's not a youtube replacement

#

It's to supplement other sources

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

Is that what creators really need?

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

Also btw there are thumbnails lol

#

Yes because youtube ad revenue is nothing

#

If your key audience pay some money per month to have early access then that's a lot of money you wouldn't have had otherwise, or perhaps a few dollars in ad revenue sacrificed at most

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

Sorry If I'm blind here, I'm new to this community, where in floatplane media can you browse thumbnails, descriptions, or even names of content to decide if you'd like to subscribe?

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

You don't, because you don't subscribe unless you already know the content creator

#

No one is going to pay for a month of early access to a content creator they don't know just because the website suggested it to them anyway

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:40 PM

#

Sure, but leaving the discovery completely to other platforms seems strange

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

Not at all

#

You have to pay to access a new creators videos

#

Why would anyone pay for a month based of some thumbnails

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

mainly the problem I see with YouTube isn't the paltry ad revenue, but the vague, out-of-touch rules, enforced in a shoot-from-the-hip kind of way.

#

Maybe that's not the problem creators have with it

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:44 PM

#

If that creator wants to make money by using floatplane then that's fine, but they have to actually have a fan base before hand

#

Would you expect patreon to advertise on creators pages other creators pages?

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 6:47 PM

#

I've discovered a few creators that way

#

Well, I'm disappointed floatplane isn't trying to be a youtube alternative.

#

With self-funding comes the possibility of freedom

#

Especially if you can drive operational costs very low

whole quail May 23, 2018, 6:49 PM

#

It has never tried to be a youtube alternative

#

That's been made very clear since it was started

obtuse pecan May 23, 2018, 7:05 PM

#

I basically want "Youtube Adults" with guns, porn, dangerous chemistry, and offensive politics, where the viewers pay for a slimmed-down operation instead of advertisers

#

No rules except the laws of the country you're connecting from

#

One of these days, I hope the market for that is big enough that a company actually does it

#

with just regular hosting and a suite of apps, not wierd blockchain hosting

@proper gale anything simple with a debugger

Can you use intellij?

#

@river light

hasty sail May 24, 2018, 4:17 PM

#

CLion for sure

#

Intellij doesn't support C afaik, that's what CLion is for

river light May 24, 2018, 4:18 PM

#

never tried it, will try now

let us know how it goes or if you encounter any problems

river light May 24, 2018, 5:05 PM

#

hang on do I have to pay for this?

#

Is there a free community edition?

proper gale May 24, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

@hasty sail oh you dont say (look at my status)
Just happens to be basically the same in terms of how you go about using it.
and IntelliJ is the much more commonly used IDE.

#

@river light Clion is a paid IDE, if you are a student you can get a free licence, like i do.

#

if you are a student, you can use the free trial while you get a licence.

#

PS: HS is fine too, i am in HS, just use the manual review method.

hasty sail May 24, 2018, 7:28 PM

#

I know that they are basically the same, but as you can't use IntelliJ for C, let's not recommend that for C

#

IIRC few years ago IntelliJ could be used for C aswell

proper gale May 24, 2018, 7:52 PM

#

it could

#

and i was not

#

i was asking if they could use IDEA, beacuse if so, you can use CLion, if not, you cant.

hasty sail May 24, 2018, 9:02 PM

#

okay, my bad then

#

but intellij and clion are quite intuitive to use from my experience

proper gale May 24, 2018, 9:21 PM

They are

@river light be warned about CLion, it will demolish your CPU.

#

well

#

when I press the run button and then the run button on the config window nothing happens

#

am I missing something?

#

Do I have to download a compiler?

molten breach May 26, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

@hasty sail most C++ development environments can be used for C

#

since a C++ compiler is usually capable of compiling native C code

#

(For example, Visual Studio can compile C code in a C++ project)

hasty sail May 26, 2018, 4:13 PM

#

yes, but IntelliJ does not support C++ either AFAIK

proper gale May 26, 2018, 5:49 PM

#

IntelliJ supports neither

#

Clion supports both.

btw some stats change from null to different things like to be filled by oem on and off

thin hull May 27, 2018, 12:58 AM

#

what things specifically?

whole quail May 27, 2018, 12:59 AM

#

cpu load was one

Now it's not happening

rip

#

Good luck with that one

#

I'm hurting just thinking about debugging that

thin hull May 27, 2018, 1:00 AM

#

cpu load updates twice a second based on a WMI property.... why the fuck would it be "to be filled by oem" ? I know some things do that but load? wtf....

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:01 AM

#

There was null, null%, large number%, To be filled by oem

#

All in load percentage

#

Oh and cpu base clock did it

#

Those 2

thin hull May 27, 2018, 1:02 AM

#

im gonna have to put a check for that stuff...

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:02 AM

#

I think you can find 2 of the bugs for load

#

Since it had both null and null%

#

One is the string as null and one is a null number cast successfully

thin hull May 27, 2018, 1:03 AM

#

this is all it does to do that

📎 unknown.png

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:04 AM

And for base clock it had different numbers

#

That's it

#

The array was corrupting

Out of bounds memory

thin hull May 27, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

ok....

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:05 AM

#

Yeah good luck finding out why but your array was incomplete

#

Something error'd in the assignment of the values and it all broke

thin hull May 27, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

its actually a list, im using a list since I didnt want to deal with having to pre-define all the elements of an array, AND the max size

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:06 AM

That makes even more sense

#

The list is shorter than 26 but bigger than 17

How big is the list normally?

and the best part is, this is the C# version.... im still planning to do the same thing in C++....

whole quail May 27, 2018, 1:12 AM

So 18 to 27 errors occurred while assigning items to the list

What does an "empty line with semicolon" mean in C#?

I stumbled upon this code, and was wondering why the C# compiler raises no warnings or errors. Strictly speaking, I guess I'm trying to execute nothing which is in fact valid? (for the empty lines)

#

oh

river light May 27, 2018, 4:56 PM

@proper gale I think I did

#

@river light what OS are you on?

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:41 AM

#

I need some help with C++, I'm creating a function signature for a function that has optional parameters, it won't work and when I don't have the optional parameter on the function call I get a stack overflow

#

@proper gale maybe you know?

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:43 AM

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:44 AM

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:45 AM

#

the part in question

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:45 AM

#

The whole thing is far too large to post and I don't really want to anyway

#

typedef NTSTATUS(NTAPI *pNtReadVirtualMemory)(HANDLE, PVOID, PVOID, ULONG, PULONG);

#

NTSTATUS NTAPI MyNtReadVirtualMemory(HANDLE pHandle, PVOID baseAddr, PVOID buffer, ULONG bytesToRead, PULONG bytesRead)
{
    //MessageBoxA(NULL, "Read Detected", "FAC", MB_OK);
    _NtReadVirtualMemory.reset();
    NTSTATUS retVal = NtReadVirtualMemory(pHandle, baseAddr, buffer, bytesToRead, bytesRead);
    _NtReadVirtualMemory.reHook();
    return retVal;
}

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:46 AM

#

this is a callback or?

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:46 AM

#

For a hook

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

so a normal function with optional, you just have void func(int param = -1)

#

i dont see any default params here.

#

default/optional.

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:47 AM

#

NtReadVirtualMemory has an optional for the last parameter

#

Which I am hooking

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:48 AM

#

so bytesRead is optional?

#

check if nullptr, if so, ignore it.

#

you should be using bytesToRead as bound

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:49 AM

#

I'm passing all of those through to the actual function

#

I have nothing to do with them

#

But I can't ignore it

#

If I don't have it I can't call NtReadVirtualMemory

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:49 AM

#

So the library is broken?

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:50 AM

#

No, I am using a function pointer for it

#

pNtReadVirtualMemory NtReadVirtualMemory;

#

NtReadVirtualMemory = (pNtReadVirtualMemory)GetProcAddress(module, "NtReadVirtualMemory");

proper gale May 28, 2018, 2:51 AM

#

How does it break then?

whole quail May 28, 2018, 2:51 AM

#

When something else calls NtReadVirtualMemory in the process it stack overflows at my function

#

When it doesn't have the optional param

#

Which I assume is because my function doesn't have it optional, but I can't call the function without a param since I use a function signature

#

If I just give it NULL I get a stack overflow in the function I hooked

#

I can just make a second function signature without it I think, but I really don't want to do that because I'll have to do it a lot

#

I think it's to do with the extra param

#

Because I'm testing now and some weird shit happens

#

wait what

#

It's stack overflowing on VirtualProtect

#

But if I put a MessageBox before it the error doesn't happen

#

Or at least isn't reported

#

wtf???

#

okay wtf I somehow fixed that by commenting out VirtualProtect

#

But how the fuck does VirtualProtect cause a SO????????

#

Now I'm getting access violation

#

I assume this error is because of the problem with function signatures

I'm not using MS products at all but I'm not against this one. If it was Google or Apple then I'd hate it, but MS doesn't seem to be overrun with PC culture and doesn't continually try to shove platforms together (F*ing FireBase I hate you) and then just give up on them (Hangouts...?)

Im making a git server on my raspberry pi. What is the safest way to allow others to connect to the server? Right now I create separate user accounts and give each of them direct symbolic links to the repositories they should have access to which are all stored within one directory that only I have access to. Additionally, all users are restricted to git shell only.
I grant and deny user access through shellscripts
Grant:

#allow user org
#creates a symlink in the users home dir

chmod 770 /var/git/$2

cd /var/git/
setfacl -R -m u:$1:rXw $2
setfacl -R -m d:u:$1:rXw $2
setfacl -m u:$1:rX .

cd /home/gitUsers/$1
ln -s /var/git/$2 $2

Deny:


#remove access privledges to org for user

#denyUser user org

cd /var/git

setfacl -R -m u:$1:000 $2
setfacl -R -m d:u:$1:000 $2
setfacl -m u:$1:000 .

Is this a secure way to do this? will it prevent people from accessing repositories i don't give them access to? Is there anything else i should be worried about?

gitlab Gitlab > Github

lethal osprey Jun 4, 2018, 3:42 AM

#

GH has the advantage of having a bit of an SNS feel to it and it's an incredible concentration of projects, so for OSS stuff it's still superior to GL, but then again SourceForge is really coming back with their rework. I already have a GL server for our private stuff, but I could see switching to SourceForge from GitHub for our public/OSS stuff if GH goes down hill.

#

as far as functionality and lack of hipster BS I agree completely with @tropic grail that GL > GH. GL has gone from klunky to polished in the last ~4 years I've been maintaining an installation

tropic grail Jun 4, 2018, 3:44 AM

#

Gitlab was bad, but it's really cleaned up.

lethal osprey Jun 4, 2018, 3:44 AM

I wouldn't say bad, but it was a f*ing mess

#

installation used to be crazy

#

and updating

tropic grail Jun 4, 2018, 3:45 AM

#

CSS used to break all the time.

lethal osprey Jun 4, 2018, 3:46 AM

#

I remember this one time I didn't update for like 6 months because we had a project and I didn't want down time and they ended up updating a full major version some time between then (7 to 8?) and it took me like 2 days to finish updating

#

CSS breaking is the asset cache

#

and that was probably becuase of how they had you lock the git repository (which makes parts of it write protected) and the fact that Sprockets was (and still is...) garbage

#

Rails moved from Sprockets to WebPacker between Rails 4 and 5 and honestly WebPacker makes a lot more sense as long as you don't need strangely specific asset compilation chains

proper saddle Jun 4, 2018, 3:50 AM

#

TBH, I don't really have a good excuse to switch to Gitlab because I mainly use .Net

lethal osprey Jun 4, 2018, 3:50 AM

#

you can host .net projects on GL

#

not sure what .net really has to do with that

proper saddle Jun 4, 2018, 3:50 AM

I know, but the main reason people are switching is because of Micro$oft

You could 100% create a version of linux that runs windows applications

#

You'd have to break a lot of copyright laws, get sued for 10s or 100s of millions and spend thousands or 10s of thousands of hours integrating the binaries you stole with linux

#

lmao

#

You would have to steal the binaries

#

It's simply not possible with our technology to reverse windows to the point that you could rewrite it

#

No matter how many billions you throw at it you'd need to do a lot before you even started on the project

thorny galleon Jun 6, 2018, 8:41 AM

i think you're being deliberately obtuse and trying to imply that a lack of obscure features means an entire project is useless

#

wtf is the point of them just stopping now

especially when so much runs in WINE already

The fact that you're thinking of features means you have no clue

thorny galleon Jun 6, 2018, 8:41 AM

#

you're boneheaded as fuck mate

#

if you randomly pick an application that utilizes something brought in by the very latest windows build, then no it probably won't work

but that's just cherry picking

and changes literally nothing

that wine and reactos are pointless projects or smth?

#

Not in terms of windows

thorny galleon Jun 6, 2018, 8:45 AM

far along in terms of running modern applications

#

you have to be running some weird as fuck bleeding edge shit for it to not work in a modern WINE version

#

and even then, why not just contribute and help fix it

#

Again, shut up about features lmao

thorny galleon Jun 6, 2018, 8:46 AM

If you think windows is just a bunch of apis you have serious issues

thorny galleon Jun 6, 2018, 8:47 AM

that's what its for

#

it's not supposed to run them in a perfectly simulated environment

#

If there are applications that won't run then they don't run windows applications

#

And to get them to run would require a far larger amount of effort than it has taken to get those projects this far

little knoll Jun 6, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

They do run Windows applications, just not all of them, like a older (or newer, for some specific cases) version of Windows would.

"If there are applications that won't run then they don't run windows applications"

little knoll Jun 6, 2018, 8:56 AM

But then, MS is working hard to redirect their developers to C# and .NET framework that is multiplatform. So developers could easily port their apps on multiples platforms.

#

Lat time I tried to run league with wine it wouldn't render.

#

It would in single player vs ai

#

Wine just isn't a good replacement.

#

I also spent 2 hours getting my headphones audio to work so that's a thing.

#

I don't quite get ReactOS.

#

What's wrong with Linux?

#

So much developer effort wasted when the Linux kernel does it for you.

#

Emulation can be good. Just look at stuff like console emulators. Eventually they reach the point where every game is compatible. It's just a lot of time and effort to get there.

#

As for games idk people just need to make them for Linux because the compute requirements don't lend itself to emulation well.

#

Which people aren't inclined to do since it's a small market. It's held back by the configuration headache Linux has for average users.

thorny galleon Jun 7, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

@cyan niche ...the Linux kernel doesn't run win32 applications..?

#

also, ReactOS is just sorta one of those things that "exists because it does" yaknow

#

maybe someone thought it would be a neat little thing to try work on with the idea of "well hey, even if i get nowhere, it's learning experience", then it just sorta snowballed

#

...like linux lol

#

idk, i think it's a net positive

#

wine benefits from reactos and vice versa

#

plus it's always good to have legal reverse engineering and documentation of proprietary software happening

cyan niche Jun 7, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

It would be neat if that were baked into the kernel :p

#

Windows is doing that with Linux.

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:44 PM

#

In Javascript, I'd like to do something once a boolean check is true. If it isn't, then I'd like it to try again. Something like..
when(function() { return global !== undefined; }, function() { alert('global is there!'); });
Is this available already or do I need to write something? It'd basically be a setTimeout when the check is false...

#

I've read a bit about promises but that seems to be for async stuff, not for retrying a check until it's true.

#

Yeah, exactly what I was thinking about.

#

But since someone made freaking leftPad, I figured someone might've done this already and there was a standard way that all the js gurus did it..

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:50 PM

#

while (!function()) { return global != nullptr; }

#

if i am not mistaken as to what you wanted.

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:51 PM

#

A while loop sounds horribly inefficient.

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:52 PM

#

im thinking async or semi-async here.

#

wait, no, that would break horridly

#

you want to call a function, check return, and if it was true, do something, else, call again?

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:53 PM

#

I'm thinking more like
function when(check, action) {
if( !check() ) {
setTimeout(function() { when( check, action); }, 500);
return;
}
action();
}

#

yeah, exactly roguelogix.

#

But I feel that there should be a better way of doing it than my code there.

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:54 PM

#

while (true) {
    if(function()){
        // do thing
    } else {
        // timeout
    }
}```

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:54 PM

#

In this specific case, I want to make sure that some script from google tag manager have run and created their globals before calling them from server generated js code.

#

@proper gale Won't that block?

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:54 PM

#

yes

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:54 PM

#

I don't want to block the entire page until the checks are true.

#

1 at a time though...

#

As I said about my code, there should be a better way of doing it.

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:56 PM

#

i thinking about C++, so, ignore me.

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:57 PM

#

😃

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:57 PM

#

c++ blocking is fine if another thread or that function is doing the work.

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:57 PM

#

Yeah, but JS is single threaded so if I block then the page will stop responding and everything will grind to a halt.

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:57 PM

#

fantastic

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

What I want to do is not block but still do the check and execute once it succeeds.

#

And again, considering someone wrote a library for padding a string that kind of crashed the whole world, this should've been done 2 million times already, and probably by smarter people than me.

proper gale Jun 7, 2018, 7:59 PM

#

cant use callbacks?

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 7:59 PM

#

what event would I listen for?

#

I mean the tag might run and complete before the script is actually loaded and executed.

#

So I need to check that the script has actually run, and I have no control over that script.

#

I could take my code above and call an event when the check succeeds, but that'll give me pretty much the same result.

#

I don't control the other script.

#

And I know too little about promises.

hallow siren Jun 7, 2018, 8:30 PM

#

Hmm. Yeah I could modify the tags in gym to issue a loaded event when they're done.

#

Gym = gtm

hallow siren Jun 8, 2018, 5:07 PM

#

Done, tested, deployed.

#

Ended up with:

#

function when(condition, action, interval) {
    if (interval === undefined)
        interval = 100;
    if (!condition()) {
        setTimeout(function () { when(condition, action, interval); }, interval);
        return;
    }
    action();
}

#

Simple but it works.

#

when(function() { return typeof(ga) !== 'undefined';}, function() { ga('ecommerce:addTransaction', …

(might as well use arrow functions then. So I assume the reason is backward compat...)

hallow siren Jun 11, 2018, 4:10 PM

@tropic sapphire The honest answer is that I didn't use a default value in the function definition because my javascript fu is weak and I had no idea it was supported. 😃

tropic sapphire Jun 11, 2018, 4:11 PM

@hallow siren fair enough, not sure how long thats actually been in JS though. I know it is support is es6 as thats what I use at work.

yeah, it's rather new-ish (from a web perspective), see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/Default_parameters#Browser_compatibility

Personal Home Page Hates Programmers

small escarp Jun 14, 2018, 3:12 AM

#

@ionic hull what you're looking for is internal redirects

#

see X-Accel-Redirect

#

basically, you set up an static url to the file that can only be accesed by an appropriate redirection which can only be sent by the server itself

#

not the browser

#

so the php (or whatever language) process the video file url, verifies the permissions and then "internally redirects" to the real file

#

then nginx takes over and php is free to serve more people

Hi all

#

I'm experiencing an issue with Powershell passing trailing spaces within arguments and I'm quite restricted on what I can do due to contractual agreements. Is there a way to resolve this?

Input:
Powershell Start-Process 'C:\Program Files\Folder\program.exe' -Verb runAs -ArgumentList @('"parameter with spaces"', '-minimize')

Expected Passed Parameters:

"parameter with spaces"`
"-minimize"

Actual Passed Parameters:

"parameter with spaces "
"-minimize "

Limitations

Program.exe must be ran from a program already running as admin (in this case powershell)
Not allowed to change default Execution Policy away from Restricted. So no Powershell scripts
Not allowed to install/execute external programs
Works if made into a shortcut (.lnk) on the Desktop

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

@cloud knot yeah cuz discord's API doesn't like to be recursive

Should I get a rasberry pi to host my discord bots on it?

#

My devs are going to be making a security bot for my server, if anyone wants to be a dev for my server please DM me, these are the following plans and the features we might be doing:

#

ENTIRE server lockdown, 1 command to revoke all invite links and lockdown all the channels to protect the server against "heavy raid"
A seperate command for single channel lockdown, after you lockdown it lets you edit the message and type in a reason why it's been locked down, like telling people to stop arguing. (Like Dyno's logs)
Account-age, customisable account age.
This is a really CRUCIAL feature that will help the server, have a feature to protect against staff destroying the server, so for example, if the staff member kicks 10+ members, the staff gets banned for suspicion of griefing. This also helps you and keeps you stress free.
And the basic mute and ban feature with logs like Dyno, I want to replace Dyno for our self bot.

@nocturne galleon well, a Pi 3B+ has good performance for tasks like that (it is a quadcore 1.4GHz CPU), has good WiFi, also 3B+ has gigabit ethernet (limited to ~300mbps tho), so it is not bad and uses small amount of power, so it is good thing for 24/7 operation

How many bots would you expect 1 of them to host?

cloud knot Jun 20, 2018, 7:59 PM

#

that depends on how badly the bots are coded

#

but i would say a lot

Thanks ^

#

@frosty lark shouldn't it ignore itself?

#

if needed, the bot could manually/interally push a command through processing if it needed to.

#

@nocturne galleon The bot red is already made and is entirely customisable and you can have custom 'plugins' for instance a lockdown command, might be worth looking into for you needs

@proper saddle the color one is fine if you remember the hex code like I do.

proper saddle Jun 21, 2018, 5:04 PM

#

I don't think the HTML color picker lets you input the hex value

hmmm

I am falling into the dark side of c# reflection, access to private pars muhaha

#

as long as it is in test, it's probably fine

#

or some heavy meta-library

#

is anyone good with react jsx?

#

having a bit of trouble figuring out how each jsx file component knows when to render to which view if multiple files are being webpack bundled into a .js file

little knoll Jun 23, 2018, 2:42 PM

#

Polyfill stuff, you could try to understand how it works but it's so complex that it would be totally useless.

#

Just continue to look at your JSX which is far more understandable than webpack bundled files

ebon light Jun 23, 2018, 2:43 PM

#

ugh im so stupid

#

im bundling every js file when im wanting to separate files for each view

#

like mixing 5 colors of paint and wondering how to get each color
rather than not mixing them together

little knoll Jun 23, 2018, 2:51 PM

#

I think you could just use your native JSX files with any modern web browser (like chrome) and it would work as expected (if your main js file is included on the HTML page)

ebon light Jun 23, 2018, 2:54 PM

#

no transpiling required?

rare jolt Jun 24, 2018, 3:06 AM

#

i don't think so

cloud knot Jun 24, 2018, 12:56 PM

#

@ebon light webpack in general replaces "injected files" with webpack_require statements

#

so for example in angular one ads template metadata with string value, but webpack replaces it with webpack_require(somenumber) which references the compiled contests of the template

#

i highly doubt react is any different in this, as this is a webpack feature

I just made a browser extension that encrypts/decrypts discord messages

#

Kek

#

No more NSA spying

small escarp Jun 25, 2018, 3:29 AM

#

cool

#

but 1. are keys stores in-browser? in-javascript?

#

and 2. what happened to the 'e' and the '0'?! o.O

cloud knot Jun 25, 2018, 7:35 AM

"I just made a browser extension that encrypts/decrypts discord messages" - and the point is ? last time i checked, Discord is mostly used to talk with other people. So it is cool that it decrypts for you, but when others can't see your message either, then it makes no sense
