[main brook]

why not delete the folder

[mental jacinth]

Wut

[main brook]

since you already have the folder zipped

[mental jacinth]

Why delete the folder when we have a mystery

[main brook]

we already have the zipped version

[mental jacinth]

Solve the mystery delete the folder

[main brook]

okay fine-

try checking the files permissions

[bold rover]

Actually don't delete the original folder

[main brook]

use root explorer

check the file perms

[mental jacinth]

Ok I will not

[main brook]

or use termux for terminal interface

[bold rover]

Imma check the zip file later when My Colab Die

[orchid frigate]

Wait tlwhere did they go

[main brook]

ono

[orchid frigate]

They aren't in my folder I extract ed them in

[main brook]

[mental jacinth]

Ahh

Oh god

[orchid frigate]

I will extract them again then

[bold rover]

Imma sort the Folder and Filter the images, Video, Text and sound files

[mental jacinth]

There video files in dat ?

[bold rover]

Later

[orchid frigate]

Ok found em

[mental jacinth]

What is in this

[bold rover]

Not sure, Probably Later I'll check it

[orchid frigate]

Tbh this kinda seems like malware

Really really random files

[bold rover]

True

[mental jacinth]

But antivirus doesn't catch this

[orchid frigate]

With even more random names

[mental jacinth]

Boris

[orchid frigate]

Who is boris

[mental jacinth]

Who is boris

[orchid frigate]

Boris is the man

[mental jacinth]

I know who boris is

[orchid frigate]

Chad man

Who is boris

[mental jacinth]

https://images.app.goo.gl/9iwrgxuxsz3TbxiZ9

I think this boris

He knows java

But why he would have to do something with Xiaomi

[bold rover]

Russian hackers?

Hehe😄

[mental jacinth]

No

[orchid frigate]

He looks funny

[mental jacinth]

He is funny

But you can't tell that who is behind the mask

[orchid frigate]

Most russian YouTubers in a nutshell

[bold rover]

Also what happened to the small spider image when you reverse search it?

[mental jacinth]

This has nothing to do with this

This is what appeared in front the f me

[bold rover]

What happened when you try to QR scan it?

Actually no

[orchid frigate]

I'm not scared

I will try

[bold rover]

Probably there's nothing tho

[orchid frigate]

Actually those are pretty random codes

[mental jacinth]

I can't find the image

[orchid frigate]

Different from each other

[mental jacinth]

?

[bold rover]

Wow

[orchid frigate]

Wow?

[mental jacinth]

Wolframalpha then

[orchid frigate]

I'm confused

[mental jacinth]

We all are confused

[orchid frigate]

Wait if there is a system 32 and a syswow64 folder which makes a 64 operating system, wouldn't adding a systemWOW128 folder make the operating system 128 bit 😳 😳 🥶 🥶

[mental jacinth]

????

I don't understand

Syswow ?

[orchid frigate]

SysWOW

You have it on your pc

If you are on windows

Folders you shouldn't delete

[mental jacinth]

No my pc is ded

[orchid frigate]

F

[mental jacinth]

I mean it died from a lightning strike

And I didn't buy a new PC

my phone is only thing I use

[orchid frigate]

Am I dumb or is reborn.zip a website

[mental jacinth]

But think a folder named reborn ?
Boris.class ? All this part of an OS ?

[bold rover]

Search it

[orchid frigate]

Boris.class is my favourite class

[orchid frigate]

I did

Website can't be reached

[bold rover]

Ow

[mental jacinth]

Ow

[bold rover]

Hmm🤔

[mental jacinth]

I also tried

[orchid frigate]

Boris.class pog

[mental jacinth]

What if you mix all this

[orchid frigate]

Me when Boris.class
https://c.tenor.com/43cc01Cj1JkAAAAM/knight-dance.gif

[mental jacinth]

I mean they are app components right ?

They can mixed to an app

I think

That makes sense ????

[orchid frigate]

Wait now that I have them on my phone will I also have creepy music randomly

😔

[mental jacinth]

They stopped playing on 30/3/2021

[orchid frigate]

Pog

[mental jacinth]

They don't play automatically anymore

[bold rover]

Ow that's facinating

[mental jacinth]

I was scared so I deleted something randomly

And it stopped playing

And I forgot

But mystery called me back

[orchid frigate]

The internet doesn't say anything about this folder

[mental jacinth]

?

[orchid frigate]

Stupid internet is stupid

[mental jacinth]

Have you tried this method

Something tells me that that could work

[bold rover]

Something random?

[mental jacinth]

Yes

[bold rover]

You just deleted one thing?

[mental jacinth]

My luck was on my side so I got rid of continuous playing of creepy music

Yes

Only one thing

[bold rover]

My pure guesses it probably has some internal Clock And played that random music when it's on time

[mental jacinth]

What is internal cock

[orchid frigate]

Wait

What did you delete

What extension

You may have broken the program

I think I understand what the .class files are

[mental jacinth]

Wait a second this one never played automatically

[orchid frigate]

Did you delete a .class

[mental jacinth]

I don't remember

[orchid frigate]

Basically

Let me explain

I think the .class files are classes from javascript

[mental jacinth]

Java script

[orchid frigate]

If they are inheriting eachother in any way

Or if they use eachother

They need eachother

Meaning deleting one would make the program miss essential files

[mental jacinth]

Actually what I deleted was an image I think

[orchid frigate]

So it can no longer run

[bold rover]

What...

[orchid frigate]

Ok now I'm confused

[mental jacinth]

I deleted an image with unsettling things written on it

[orchid frigate]

How tf would an image affect the program

[bold rover]

What's the last thing you remember on it?

[mental jacinth]

Because I didn't want to see that thing again

[orchid frigate]

The only way It can is if the program has a path to it which it needs

[mental jacinth]

When I deleted the image the folder was renamed automatically to reborn

[orchid frigate]

No path to the image == crash

[orchid frigate]

Alright so two possibilities:
This is some xiomi cult
This is malware

I believe it is the second one

[mental jacinth]

I believe it is the first one

[orchid frigate]

Obviously

[bold rover]

Also what do you mean by random?

[mental jacinth]

If it was a malware it didn't have images with information

[bold rover]

Then you changes you response to this

[mental jacinth]

?

[bold rover]

What's the actual last thing you remember when you deleted the file?

Is it a Image file or?

[orchid frigate]

If this is malware it's very well done malware jeeze

Encoded code

[mental jacinth]

Image with a name

[orchid frigate]

Upon apps missing the folder changes name

[bold rover]

Hm

[orchid frigate]

Boris the man the myth the chad ?

[mental jacinth]

There was text written on it

Saber Entertainment

????

[orchid frigate]

Alright solved the mystery

Have you downloaded any games

[mental jacinth]

No

[orchid frigate]

From saber entertainment

[mental jacinth]

I googled them

They make PS4 and pc titles

I don't have a pc or PS4 or any game console

And I only play strategy games

Then how

[orchid frigate]

Well clearly they have something to do with the files

[mental jacinth]

There is something with saber and xiomi

[orchid frigate]

Boris

[mental jacinth]

Yes

But can you put the files together to see what happens

[orchid frigate]

I want to try to compile the .js thing

But it's all encoded

[mental jacinth]

I have a feeling that this is the thing

Encoded means ?

[orchid frigate]

Its all symbols

[mental jacinth]

What symbols

My phone can encode stuff

[orchid frigate]

Random symbols put together to hide the code

Try to open

It in a code editor

The .js

[bold rover]

Just random symbols

[mental jacinth]

What they have to hide

Xiaomi is a tech giant

[orchid frigate]

Companies do that

Most code is actually encoded

[mental jacinth]

But saber Entertainment

[orchid frigate]

Glfw is encoded

For some reason

I want to modify it but

[mental jacinth]

Glfw what is ?

[orchid frigate]

A library which is used to work in opengl

I use it all the time

[mental jacinth]

Hmm

[orchid frigate]

I still need to fix the initializing issue

[mental jacinth]

Door

est

[orchid frigate]

Boris

[mental jacinth]

That's it EST

Boris lives in Estonia

Which is also called est

[orchid frigate]

Boris the hacker man

Hacked xiomi for some reason

[mental jacinth]

Try to alnyze this

[orchid frigate]

I think we should actually watch his channel to actually understand what is happening 🥶 👍

[mental jacinth]

There is zoo in here

Who is zoo

[orchid frigate]

Alright well I'm currently on a break from coding so I will be back kater

[bold rover]

Seeya

[mental jacinth]

Boris has a cat named artyom

[orchid frigate]

I won't be able to code for a week

[bold rover]

Burnout?

[mental jacinth]

😱😱😱

[bold rover]

You should take a rest definitely

[mental jacinth]

Yes you should

[orchid frigate]

Nah I'm just at the sea on a break

From everything

[mental jacinth]

Seea

[bold rover]

Nice,You deserve it to be honest

[orchid frigate]

I have been coding alot reasently but not alot of progress

C++ openGL is very very hard

Hardest thing I have done to date

[mental jacinth]

Listen to this. I always listen to this when I'm tired.

C+++ is very hard

[bold rover]

Hehe😄 Just rest for a while and take your time for the moment

[mental jacinth]

One day I tried to learn c++

[orchid frigate]

No it's not, people think it's hard but it really isnt

openGL is

Very very hard

[mental jacinth]

Oopa GL

Borisman

[orchid frigate]

Thanks for the kind words wise man

[mental jacinth]

Listen to this and relax

[orchid frigate]

This is so much worse then m2

[mental jacinth]

Oh wrong one

[orchid frigate]

If I heard this at 3am I would throw everything I have out the window

[mental jacinth]

How bout this one

[orchid frigate]

Very mysterious

Kinda stramge

[mental jacinth]

Yes

[orchid frigate]

Not as bad tho

[mental jacinth]

Who makes this type of music

Finnaly m1

[orchid frigate]

It's very familiar to me

[mental jacinth]

?

Who

[orchid frigate]

I listened to this one

Not as bad

[mental jacinth]

Oh ok

Greg ?

[orchid frigate]

Idk the start of M3 was very familiar to me

[mental jacinth]

?

Greg is sus

[orchid frigate]

Is Greg the hackerman

😳 😳 🥶 🥶

[mental jacinth]

I found somthing

There is lvl 1 and lvl 2

[orchid frigate]

So it is a game

[mental jacinth]

I think

I hope

This is not going to eat me

[orchid frigate]

I can't open any of those 😔

All encoded

[mental jacinth]

Well seems so boris

[orchid frigate]

Boris the hacker man

[mental jacinth]

That guy littrely uses VPN everytime

[orchid frigate]

Boris is such a hackerman 🥶 🥶

[mental jacinth]

[orchid frigate]

If I had one I would too

[mental jacinth]

I don't use vpn

[orchid frigate]

But Vpns don't have anything to do with encoding

Sadly

[mental jacinth]

VPN dub

What symbols are like

[orchid frigate]

Very strange

I will send an image

[mental jacinth]

Ok

[orchid frigate]

Ok learned something

They are indeed using eachother

Meaning this is a program

No way

[mental jacinth]

How to decode this

I have an idea

Can you make a program to decode this

Borisman defeated by haydot

[bold rover]

This is kinda strange,You did say There's a Game company name in the files right?

[bold rover]

.

[mental jacinth]

Yes

[orchid frigate]

.

No way

I don't know what the symbols are

Plus

This code editor doesnt use the proper symbols

The purple squares should be symbols

[bold rover]

That's really a pain

Do we need reddit for this?

[mental jacinth]

Catch ya later gotta work

[bold rover]

Seeya wish your safe and fine for the day

[mental jacinth]

I hope

[barren shale]

you call it bad code

i call it haydot's code

😎

[main brook]

you call it haydot code

i call it garbage

[thorny estuary]

you call it garbage
I call it trash

[wet girder]

installing POP!_OS is nice. It's so damn easy even though I need to do dual boot and had to mess with disk partitions

welp problem 1. how do I boot back to windows because there's no grub

[thorny estuary]

Here is burgers from general

[bold rover]

Morning jupe👋

[wet girder]

Aaand I don't have network adapters for my WLAN adapters on Linux

Good morning

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/stories/detail/323
This seems to be good guide to get my wlan working, I just need to get long Ethernet cable for a sec

[barren shale]

just install it on windows

then copy it to the linux partition

boot linux and run it

[wet girder]

well it was faster the way I did it

I love POP!_OS way too much, this is actually enjoyable to use unlike windows

and just so fucking good

after I just get bootloader working my biggest problems will be all gone

aaand I still don't know how to boot into windows

[mental jacinth]

Hello

[wet girder]

Heya

[bold rover]

@mental jacinth I found Things

[mental jacinth]

What things

?

[mental jacinth]

What

What

WHAT

[bold rover]

MIDlet-Name: Chutulo_DW1

[mental jacinth]

What the f is chuthlu

[bold rover]

Sun Microsystem Inc.

[mental jacinth]

?

[bold rover]

That's why most folders is in Java

[mental jacinth]

What is meaning of this

What it has to do with xiomi

[bold rover]

Probably nothing

It's probably a Random file

[mental jacinth]

And Boris ?

[bold rover]

A random file name

[mental jacinth]

Random ?

But how

Bu..t

[bold rover]

There's so many random file name in the File

[mental jacinth]

No. This has to be something that can be put together

[bold rover]

Purely random

[mental jacinth]

It's in sub ordient

In subordinate

[bold rover]

They probably have a function Or something But other than that it's nothing

[mental jacinth]

In my folder it has everything in a line

[bold rover]

Also the 4 Audio files you send is nothing creepy

They're probably Musical plays

[mental jacinth]

See everything is in a line

I am sure it is going to run when you put this together

[bold rover]

It probably has a function other than that it's nothing

[wet girder]

I think I accidentally corrupted or deleted my windowsn installation

[mental jacinth]

Yes

I think I should reveal the truth now

[wet girder]

I'm trying to evaluate if I should just reinstall POP!_OS on my ssd instead of hard drive or try to fix my windows

[bold rover]

What?

[mental jacinth]

My Knights,
It is not other than a game. I played it. But one day I wanted to see what is in it. So I extracted it. And those random but much needed to run the game. So I tried to ARG everyone. (I should have deleted the meta thing)
Here is your prize. You may play it.

You need j2me emulator to play this

[bold rover]

As Expected

[mental jacinth]

YOU WIN

PRIZE IS YOURS

[bold rover]

I already Known this is An ARG from yesterday

[mental jacinth]

HAY DOT LOST

take the file and play it. Why not use your prize

[bold rover]

I don't have a PC to run

[mental jacinth]

It is short and fairly creepy

It's not a pc game

[bold rover]

Ow

I can look into it I guess

[mental jacinth]

Remember : you need a j2me emulator to play this

[bold rover]

Well nvm I don't have a Emulator

I'm just gonna wait for IHaydot

[mental jacinth]

Well what OS do you have

[bold rover]

Well...

[barren shale]

umumOS

[bold rover]

I do wish you a great day and morning, Lovely Mini ARG nonetheless

Wish you stay safe and warm

[mental jacinth]

Warm

[barren shale]

yo mama

[main brook]

Warm

anybody wanna stay warm with my hugs?

[wet girder]

now my only OS on my pc is Linux even tho I was gonna just dual boot

[main brook]

i have Ubuntu and Alpine

[wet girder]

I need to find a way to play apex on POP!_OS

[barren shale]

impossible

cuz easy anti cheat

[wet girder]

ProtonDB can do it

[barren shale]

idk

1 year ago i tried to install fortnite

everyone said that its impossible due to easy anti cheat

[wet girder]

ProtonDB didn't exist a year ago

[barren shale]

i mean you can try

you have fast internet

fortnite took days to download

then didnt work

life

[wet girder]

wait no it's not possible, shit

no more apex for me on pc then

because I am not gonna change back to windows

[main brook]

ha

i don't play games

wait

[wet girder]

only games I want to have always are apex, Minecraft, roblox and solitaire

[main brook]

im bad at apex

got toxic people that mocks me

i have a traumatizing flashback when playing Minecraft

i still play roblox but occasionally

sometimes i get bored

and solitaire

is hell for me

[wet girder]

it's fun when you have something shitty you need to watch or listen

[main brook]

mhm

i listen to song

and i watch videos

most are related to code

[barren shale]

made my own Neural Network

no optimizations

super slow

super bad

[main brook]

oh you mean

every code that has ever existed

[barren shale]

thats wrong

tensorflow's neural networks are really good

hardware accelerated

nvidia started making tensor cores in their gpus

made for machine learning

[mental jacinth]

Song ?

You must hear this Music

I have a bet with another guy that you will not be able to listen to this in the highest volume

[wet girder]

I might've gotten apex to work with Lutris

only might've

[hoary hound]

Looking forward to trying this, seems pretty cool

https://youtu.be/4duqI8WyfqE

Forgot I had already signed up for this, now we wait...

the more I look at it the more I want to get my hands on it

[wet girder]

I don't like it a lot

it takes data from private repos and uses that code in it

I don't like that

at all

[hoary hound]

pretty sure it doesn't

[wet girder]

it'll also just make bad programmers not learn anything because they don't even need to find the info they just get it

[wet girder]

have you read the faq?

the faq seems that they pretty clearly use private code

[hoary hound]

uhm

If it used private repos I think it would have caused a lot of trouble

Even though I'm not sure if how intellectual property works on github

yeah would definitely have caused a lot of legal problems

[main brook]

like

stealing my cookies

i like my chocolate chips cookies

and i mean my Cookie class

[hoary hound]

This tool is meant to help already experienced programmers to do things quicker... I see that newbies could use this to get stuff done easier, but you could say the same about stackoverflow

[main brook]

except stack overflow is more verbose

which newbies usually dont like

they usually stuck in any code they see

[hoary hound]

that's true but yeah, if people don't care about learning then why are they programming in the first place?

[main brook]

"to hack fb/ig"

[hoary hound]

yeah sure use the ai do everything, but then don't call yourself a programmer

[hoary hound]

"so you work with computers right? can you hack my friend's fb"

classic

[main brook]

mhm

my friend did that to me

[hoary hound]

they hacked your fb or asked to hack someone else's?

[main brook]

i mean

they asked me

when i just show them a snippet of my class

"rei hack my fb"

[hoary hound]

lol

imagine showing someone a css snippet and they call you an hacker

[main brook]

atleast better than saying html is a programming language

[hoary hound]

Professional HTML Programmer

[main brook]

also they call themselves hacker for using things from github and running them without knowing what they're actually doing

[main brook]

i feel like im bad at styling

even though iam

i should make coffee and take my 100th css course

[wet girder]

idk, there was just a certain phrase in the faq a week back that sounded like they were using private repo data

[hoary hound]

I think you are talking about this

[wet girder]

no, the faq seems to be redone. I don't think they actually use it but it was rather suspicious

[hoary hound]

The only problem I can see here is telemetry uploading code that contains stuff like API keys (although you should never put API keys in plaintext in the code file).

besides that, the ai obviously needs to read the code you write to give you suggestions

[wet girder]

ye

[hoary hound]

It's really just a preview for now, we'll see how it goes

how did I manage to write code that only works while being debugged

roblox studio is a nightmare

maybe using a function that 90% of the developers discourage using could be at fault here

just because I'm lazy

[hoary hound]

bruh my fix made it work even less

[wet girder]

lmao

Some Finn I met today through wolvesville asked me to make roblox game with them

now that I use only Linux, it might be a bit harder

[hoary hound]

Looks like someone already thought about it ;P
https://devforum.roblox.com/t/grapejuice-easily-run-roblox-on-linux/262949

[wet girder]

yes I saw that

that's fuckin awesome

[hoary hound]

does it work?

that's great

[wet girder]

Haven't tried it yet

I used 8 hours today getting most of the OS ready for me

[hoary hound]

I never tried linux, everyone says it's great, might try it on vm before messing with dual boot

[wet girder]

I love it. Requires bit of tinkering for almost anything but that only adds to my enjoyment

[hoary hound]

sounds great. The project I'm currently working on is kinda constraining me into working only on that. Once I'm done with it I have a lot of other stuff to do before summer ends, like finishing the translation thing, maybe start modding again and also try linux :)

[wet girder]

You're lucky, I have no idea what to do. I might just start going through ethical hacking course in udemy I got for free as I set my self up hacking machine on my raspi yesterday

[hoary hound]

I'm just trying to enjoy the free time I have left. If everything goes according to plans, I'll start university around september/october, and I have NO IDEA how hard it'll be and how much free time I will have, so I make the best out of what I have left now

[wet girder]

I'm gonna start it school AND high school 4.8

plus 2 hours bus rides total to school daily

bye bye free time

[hoary hound]

yeah...

I'm also moving out, I mean I'm renting an appartment with 2 friends, and... idk I feel like I'm about to leave everything that makes me feel safe

Maybe I'm just being childish, but yeah change scares me

[wet girder]

I'd love to move out already

[hoary hound]

I'm both excited and terrified at the same time

On one hand it's a new, different experience

On the other hand everything is up to you and the experience depends on how independent you are

[wet girder]

true

I'm reading 3 chats atm

and somehow keeping up

[hoary hound]

lol

parkour

[wet girder]

But I'm definitely gonna move out when it's possible. I need more space to try to reach the potential on continuing on my career and it's gonna gonna happen while I livr with my parents and siblings. Too much noise, too much distraction, no space

[hoary hound]

You seem to have the confidence of a leader

something I clearly lack

but I'm ok with it

not everyone is the same

[wet girder]

I'm not gonna lie I don't even know what qualifies as confidence of a leader lol

[hoary hound]

well someone that is able to take matters into their own hands when nobody else can/wants to do it, someone that can guide other people, getting them to follow him. It's easy to be passive and wait for someone else to do it. To me, being a leader is being that "someone".

From what I saw you have great ambitions, and aiming at the stars, because maybe you are confident in yourself. Some people lack that confidence

[wet girder]

Thank you first of all but yeah I guess I could fit in that. I always when possible take the leader position, it just happens naturally for me

[barren shale]

they are

[hoary hound]

source?

[barren shale]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9u3ZAGQmT0

this guy explains the faq really well

[hoary hound]

Interesting, I agree with most the points of this dude, still I want to try at least the free version, since I'm not working on bit projects with Visual Code right now, I don't care what's sent to Github.
Also found this comment, apparently Github has all the rights to do what it is doing, and we all accepted when we made our account. Talking about reading TOS...

[orchid frigate]

Every time I fix a goddamn issue another 3 harder to fix come I feel like my hair is starting to fall from stress

[wet girder]

coding in a nutshell

[hoary hound]

The video above can be summarized as:

"It's like stack overflow, but worse"

Still gonna try it

[barren shale]

its very bad for thing that are a bit complicated

so it can only write easy functions

AI is generally good at really technical things

but it sucks at other things

that's why everytime i train an AI to play snake

[wet girder]

ye lol

[barren shale]

it does the corners stratgey

its a good strategy but its slow

[wet girder]

LMAO, i found the best win11 reaction

[covert summit]

Hello

[mental jacinth]

Hell

O

[orchid frigate]

Fun fact: all Linux users are.programmers or hackers

[barren shale]

[orchid frigate]

Don't hagrid me you

Is true

[barren shale]

Fun fact: all Haydots are bad at coding

[orchid frigate]

I'm like boris

From life of boris

I do coding but I don't like to take it too seriously because then my vodka staff will be gone (I think I need clarify that this is a joke I'm just making a reference)

[main brook]

i like the duet of

boris and his father

[hoary hound]

the only real reason to use it

[main brook]

WOAH

i should request

it'll make my database easier to make

[hoary hound]

the waitlist seems to be quite long

it probably depends what type of github user you are

they probably choose very active people first

[barren shale]

regex is always easy

[barren shale]

the real question is

does this actually work

and where did the AI get it from

who is the chad that pushed this to github

[hoary hound]

Not for everyone lol

And that's why you test the stuff the ai suggests you

Instead of blindly accepting it

[barren shale]

yeah

its really like stackoverflow

[hoary hound]

Yep, except this time you have no one to complain to if the code doesn't work

[main brook]

simply blame the AI

[main brook]

so i-

i compiled

YouCompleteMe

and my phone was slow

as heck

[solar horizon]

Same, everyone dead

[main brook]

i learned scss

[hoary hound]

Damn my search history is just github copilot

maybe I should think about something else

Pretty sure the hype will die out once I try it for some time, I just need to try it

more reasons to not like github copilot but also to like it lol

My opinion is very split on it

[knotty root]

i dont know how to code but i like my fish

[wet girder]

Noice

I found this very biased windows hate video lol
https://youtu.be/WRGROMvU7nc

there's good points but it's still biased towards linux because there's good things to windows too

[keen shell]

This might interest some here, I usually play this game when I'm bored and I noticed it has very detailed documentation and an offline release on github
https://traffic-simulation.de/ring.html

[wet girder]

Ooh, that's quite intresting

[barren shale]

its gonna be one of these things

like GPT-3

its interesting at first

but then its meh

GPT-3 can code

but none is using it to code

same thing will happen with copilot

[bold rover]

Honestly true-ish

Copilot is built for coding

GPT-3 is probably not

[barren shale]

GPT-3 is much bigger

and it can learn from input

and it wrote some good code

but both are owned by microsoft

so idk

but its gonna be paid too which is eeh

[bold rover]

GPT-3 Sure it's bigger But Comm'n I wish It can read Someone Inputs and turn into actual functionable code

Copilot is small because It was only Trained in a Programming dataset

That doesn't mean it's bad

It was built for programming

But yeah both software is still paid so that sucks

[orchid frigate]

My search history is the most random shit ever

It's basically search kompot

70% is "how to" coding questions

10% is YouTube videos that are even more random

5% is stack overflow questions that are 1 year year old in terms of me searching them

[main brook]

mine is weirder

[orchid frigate]

And the rest is....I don't even know

[orchid frigate]

Oh yea forgot to mention

Inside of that 70% of the questions around 50% at random numbers and letter

Because CPP errors are stupid and make 0 sense

[orchid frigate]

Pretty random but also pretty normal

[tranquil leaf]

I need help with LUA scripting

[barren shale]

what do you want help with ?

uhmm

maybe ask jupe

[hoary hound]

I can help you with that

[barren shale]

or rei

[hoary hound]

What's the problem

[barren shale]

or cloud

[hoary hound]

[tranquil leaf]

I have team script already, but I need help with permissions

Team Changer Script:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Char = Player.Character

local Frame = script.Parent.Frame
local RedTeam = Frame.RedButton
local BlueTeam = Frame.BlueButton

local debounce = false

RedTeam.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if not debounce then
    debounce = true
    Player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
    Char.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(1)
    debounce = false
    end
end)

BlueTeam.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if not debounce then
    debounce = true
    Player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
    Char.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(1)
    debounce = false
    end
end)

Sorry for bad english.

[hoary hound]

What kind of permission?

So you want a list of specific people who can join the red team?

[tranquil leaf]

Example:

Permission = {"gamer123", "gamer123"}

[tranquil leaf]

Yes

[main brook]

fun fact

you made a loop hole

if not denounce

meaning if its False

oh wait

also quick question@tranquil leaf

what script is this

Local or Script

[tranquil leaf]

Local

[main brook]

okay

what's the issue again?

the team wont change?

[orchid frigate]

I should learn lue

[tranquil leaf]

Everyone can change team right now

[orchid frigate]

Lua

Looks fun to write

[main brook]

ah

[tranquil leaf]

But I want permission to change team

[main brook]

you'll need some sort of predicate

like havePermission(user)

[orchid frigate]

Is the syntax of lua java/CPP like?

Atleast a bit

[main brook]

Lua is similar to ruby

[barren shale]

maybe focus on one language and become actually good first

[orchid frigate]

Sometimes I wonder why I have yet to block you

[main brook]

also dont learn lua please

[barren shale]

its not even similar

[main brook]

you'll find issues like

referencing

[orchid frigate]

Cool

[main brook]

variables

[hoary hound]

Alright, for safety purposes you obviously need to keep the list on the server, since this seems to be a localscript, you will need to use Remote Events/Remote Functions.

In this case you should use a Remote Function, since you can call it from the client, run the function on the server and return a value to the client once it finishes.

Local script

Team Changer Script:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Char = Player.Character

local Frame = script.Parent.Frame
local RedTeam = Frame.RedButton
local BlueTeam = Frame.BlueButton

local checkPermission = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteFunction")

local debounce = false

RedTeam.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    local hasPermission = checkPermission:InvokeServer()
    if not debounce and hasPermission then
    debounce = true
    Player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
    Char.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(1)
    debounce = false
    end
end)

BlueTeam.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    if not debounce then
    debounce = true
    Player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
    Char.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(1)
    debounce = false
    end
end)

Server script

local Permission = {"gamerTest", "coolPerson"}
local checkPermission = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteFunction")

local function checkPermissionForPlayer(player)
    for _,user in pairs(Permission) do
        if (user == player.Name) then
            return true
        end
    end

    return false
end

checkPermission.OnServerInvoke = checkPermissionForPlayer

Untested code

could not work

[main brook]

try it

also you should consider using ipairs

its faster since its cached

[hoary hound]

You will also need to create a remote function in ReplicatedStorage

[hoary hound]

Always used pairs, I never checked the actual difference between the two

[main brook]

pairs returns key, value

ipairs returns index, value

similar but different in luau

[orchid frigate]

I created a server and made its lifetime 10000 hours I also can no longer access it I'm guessing thats not great

[hoary hound]

can I loop a dictionary with ipairs then?

[main brook]

also isn't OnServerInvoke supposed to be an event

[orchid frigate]

I dont even know what server it is.lol

[main brook]

yes

[hoary hound]

nope, that's for remote events

[main brook]

ah okie

[hoary hound]

Yeah at first it was very confusing lol

[main brook]

also i suggest

using ids

instead of .Name

[hoary hound]

indeed

I just copied his example

[main brook]

since .UserId is static

[hoary hound]

It would also be good to keep the list in a separate ModuleScript

If it gets too long

Makes the code look cleaner

[main brook]

its sad that lua doesn't have good OOP

[hoary hound]

ehhh

[main brook]

[hoary hound]

you can kinda do oop but it's not the best experience

[main brook]

indeed

tables suck

especially metatable

[tranquil leaf]

Man I need you to my scripter lol.

Im just animator / builder.

[orchid frigate]

It's a shame that the game rust wasn'made in rust

[hoary hound]

Sorry already working on my own project :P

And I need to hurry

[tranquil leaf]

That was joke I know you are busy. 😅

[hoary hound]

I'm starting to lose motivation again

[orchid frigate]

Rust is a great language

Really fucking hard but still great language

[hoary hound]

Making games is like a race against myself

[main brook]

quick tip

dont hire 5 scripters

they'll waste time criticizing each others code

[hoary hound]

If I lose too much time on a feature I lose interest in the entire project

WHy am I like this ;-;

[tranquil leaf]

I have 1 scripter, but im not sure is he inside my project.

[main brook]

(reminds me when i was making boilerplate code)

oh also

[hoary hound]

I'm trying to learn a roblox framework, so far it's good and it keeps code organized, but I'm already slowing down because one particular service is not easy to script

[main brook]

you're gonna have like

a bit of race condition

in your code

since InvokeServer() will block

until value is returned

the event can run twice

[hoary hound]

I'm pretty sure InvokeServer starts a new thread for every player that calls it

[orchid frigate]

I have been drawing a rectangle for half an year so you are definitely doing better then me

[main brook]

even so it'll still wait for result

and it'll switch control

to other things

[hoary hound]

yes the bad thing about remote functions is that they yeld the client too

until a result is returned

[main brook]

[hoary hound]

[main brook]

and this is why i make my own event loop

[hoary hound]

I just use Knit framework that handles all the remote stuff and saves some time

[main brook]

i haven't used roblox in a while

by a while i mean 4 month

[main brook]

what's a Knit framework

[barren shale]

everytime i look at this

my mind gets broken

this looks like something that isnt C#

[hoary hound]

https://sleitnick.github.io/Knit/

[barren shale]

it looks so weird for a C# code

[hoary hound]

what's that

why is there an underscore

[barren shale]

underscore is default

or if you dont want something you can just put _

like _ = GetChild();

[hoary hound]

I did some C# like 2 years ago, still remember the basics but not really advanced stuff

Well it's the language that got me into OOP

damn the first time I discovered classes and objects I was blown

[barren shale]

i only use C#

good enough for almost everything

[main brook]

i have no idea why i watched this

[barren shale]

xd

https://i.imgur.com/ZCf2alx.png

[wet girder]

HELL YEAH. I managed to make version of WorldBox that skips all CPU checks because my PC doesn't get through those checks

I got so tired of reading hex already lmao

[main brook]

goodjob jupe

you deserve a hug

[orchid frigate]

Jokes on you I never return null because I never use ints as functions in C's

[main brook]

i hate functions

[orchid frigate]

Why

They are the best

Along with classes

I don't like structures tho and enums

They seem useless af

[wet girder]

OOP lover

[orchid frigate]

Average OOP fan be like

[main brook]

i hate that i can't return

string or int

just one type

ONE

THAT WILL CAUSE LITERALLY

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON SCALE

[wet girder]

what language are you using

[main brook]

C++

[wet girder]

But can't you return any type

oh wait now I see what you mean

why would you want to return different data types

[main brook]

because yes

okay okay

because i want to tell them that this thing doesn't exist

return string if the item requested exist else -1

[barren shale]

bruh

structers are the best thing

they make your code much more faster

[barren shale]

just return ""

if it doesnt

[main brook]

the issue is

user can store ""

they can store empty string

[barren shale]

use std::tuple

std::tuple<bool, string>

the bool is for exists or not

and the string is for the value

you can pass a pointer value to a boolean

and make it true if it exists

and then check the value after you call the function

a lot of solutions

or a reference doesnt have to be a pointer

[main brook]

so like

ah im confused

[barren shale]

nub

git gud

[main brook]

was that supposed to mean

"git is gud"

or "get good"

[barren shale]

[orchid frigate]

You can tho

You return what is needed

For instance: in an int function, you return int

In chat function, you return char

[wet girder]

No Roblox for me because I am too lazy to fix dependency errors on development build of wine

[hoary hound]

:(

[orchid frigate]

:(

[fallow tulip]

:(

[barren shale]

this isnt what he meant

[wet girder]

I promised to make a Roblox script for a guy I barely know for his rp Roblox game

I'm probably gonna regret this aren't I

[orchid frigate]

What language does Roblox use for scripting

[barren shale]

lua

but a bit different version of lua

its called luau

[orchid frigate]

Kinda like Cs unity?

[barren shale]

lua

isnt like anything

[orchid frigate]

No I mean

Like

[barren shale]

oh

idk

[orchid frigate]

A modified version of the language

[barren shale]

C# isnt modified in unity

[orchid frigate]

[barren shale]

you cant modify C#

[orchid frigate]

You know what I meant

[barren shale]

it isn't open source

[orchid frigate]

Ok lemme phrase it better

A added to version of it

[barren shale]

idk

[orchid frigate]

An*

Kinda like

C# expanded and enhanced

[barren shale]

Luau
Luau (lowercase u, /ˈlu.aʊ/) is a fast, small, safe, gradually typed embeddable scripting language derived from Lua. It is used by Roblox game developers to write game code, as well as by Roblox engineers to implement large parts of the user-facing application code as well as portions of the editor (Roblox Studio) as plugins.

[orchid frigate]

When I was pretty young

I tried the Roblox game engine

It was before I used unity so I was awful lol

Couldn't do anything

Didn't even know you can script stuff until now

[wet girder]

Luau is like C# and Python smuhed together creating awful mess

[orchid frigate]

Well combining c# and python sounds pretty great

If you take everything good from both languages and combine it you could create a super language. 🤔

[wet girder]

no it's more like everything bad from both languages

well based on my small experience with it

I just don't like it at all

[orchid frigate]

Interesting I will look at some code

I looked at some code of it

I understand why you don't like it

It doesn't look fun to write in

[floral python]

Aint that JS

[wet girder]

lmao, true kinda

[solar horizon]

Um better not getting here

[main brook]

[main brook]

well Lua OOP are like Javascript

its syntax are like Ruby

with a slight touch of C#

[barren shale]

just like yo mama

[main brook]

my mom caught covid

because yo mama is so fat she infected my mom by not distancing enough

[hoary hound]

not sure how C# fits well in Luau, I've been using it for 4 years and yeah, not the best language out there, but it's very easy to learn, unless you want to explore more complicated stuff.

not sure how C# fits well in Luau
considering that Luau doesn't have native support for OOP

just a hacky way to do it

with ✨metatables✨

[main brook]

yes

i like it simplicity though

but also

referencing variables

is wack

with the local keyword

and the unreferenced one before declared

so you can't have a metatable that requires circular reference

unless you make a proxy

[hoary hound]

something that is too easy to do is run a new thread with spawn(). It's a cool function but like, all developers tell you not to use it because reasons I don't remember, but they made sense.
I remember trying to do the same in C# and it took a while before figuring out how to start a separate thread

all you have to do in Luau is literally spawn(callback)

too easy

or you go the boring way and use coroutines

[main brook]

spawn is a thread

coroutines are async

think of it like normal thread

you can cancel coroutine

but control a thread using spawn

it have a yield

which is fun

[main brook]

yeah because you dont have control over it

also it runs in the next iteration

instead of current one

since there's a Task Scheduler

in Luau

you can see how the scheduler works

just use sleep(0)

and you'll switch to another task

or sleep(1)

like

[hoary hound]

you mean wait()?

[main brook]

local function func()
    print(1)
    wait(2)
end
local coro1 = coroutine.new(func)
local coro2 = coroutine.new(func)

coro1.resume()
coro2.resume()

[main brook]

yeah

i haven't used luau since so long

[hoary hound]

you seem to know a lot of stuff about it though

[main brook]

well its easier to learn

since i went from python to javascript to lua to luau

its also my dream as a kid to script in roblox

when i was like 2nd grade

i always try to write code

but never actually made it work

[wet girder]

I'm streaming setting up roblox studio in vc one atm
