programming

[olive sable]

i dont like going to beach ngl. i like clothes

[tender river]

then try in vietnam machine too bad too locals played just fine so maybe technique could be better

[tender river]

one drum was barely usable

[sage crag]

southend is a london borough you can actually catch the train here

somehow

[tender river]

will probably only get to play taiko if i visit japan or china maybe

original

[sage crag]

there's a little trolley that goes to the end of the pier

the longest pier in the world

for some reason

1.3 mile long pier

2 km

[olive sable]

[tender river]

beach near road

[olive sable]

why you need so much pier?

[sage crag]

because they have nothing else

at the end of the pier there are

[olive sable]

pretty normal i think.

[sage crag]

toilets and a restaurant and a gift centre

[sage crag]

na this awful beach

terrible

[sage crag]

but the restaurant had the best ice cream i ever had

i walked up and down the pier i didnt take the trolley/train thing

[olive sable]

in belgium we have these

[sage crag]

why is your beach worse

[olive sable]

this is not the tourist beach place

[tender river]

reminds me of this ukrainian city

[olive sable]

you're not even allowed to swim there i think

[sage crag]

you cant swim too far out of southend either

there's a sunk ww2 ship

filled with bombs

[tender river]

100x20km

[sage crag]

that are still active

[sage crag]

🔍

long city

[olive sable]

our dunes have german artillery still there

[tender river]

in vietnam they had to replant trees after war so wherever you go you see evenly spaced out trees

[sage crag]

in the UK im pretty sure the only natural forests left are in scotland

the rest of them are replants

[tender river]

oh i guess you never went skiing/skateboarding

not skate

snow

[olive sable]

the places people actually are allowed to swim look like this btw

[sage crag]

[olive sable]

appartments for the rich people

[sage crag]

went tobogganing once or twice

when i was younger and it still snowed

but uuh

not ski

not snowbaord

[tender river]

theres a hill for that in our city and another big one in another nearby city, my dad used to help them with elevator (whatever its called) programming (rfid passes stuff) and i got a free pass

[sick owl]

28% of Englands woodland is ancient woodlands

We actually do fairly well, albeit slightly below the European average

[olive sable]

i didn't notice the appartment was circled lmao. people dont swim in the appartments

[tender river]

fancy word we just say "sled"

[sick owl]

In terms of land coverage 2.6% of the UK is ancient woodland

Pretty grim that this is actually a decent stat against the global average

[tender river]

me went to this as a child https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubing_(recreation)

but not on river

down a snowy hill

[sick owl]

Brazil and Canada make up most of the remaining global ancient woodland

[tender river]

one time i found one that could slide particularly well

and it went so fast it got past the track end and into the forest

[sick owl]

Beanbag riding ↓

[tender river]

they took it from me after that

[olive sable]

sounds dangerous

[olive sable]

i think belgium is sitting at roughly 0.000%

[tender river]

o right ski lift

[sick owl]

Grim

[olive sable]

there are parts of forest that havent been replanted, but everything is being managed by humans and trees are getting cut down everywhere for wood and such

none of it is left alone by humans

23% of the country is still forest tho so idk if its that bad

[sick owl]

Its grim that so much history was lost but nice that replanting efforts have recovered that much greenery

I mean its 13% in the UK so you guys are doing well, although part of that is big old moors and the like bringing the average down

• high population density of course

It was 7% in 1965 which is crazy to think about

War took its toll on the woodlands

[olive sable]

80% of the forest is all in the southern part of the country cuz the ardennes

and north has worse soil for trees

[sick owl]

Ah, makes sense

[olive sable]

north also just has more industrialization

[sick owl]

The terrain naturally provides some protection for forests down there I imagine

[olive sable]

ye

[sick owl]

Lots of it isn't really practical to build on

[olive sable]

[rigid snow]

i turned on the ai summaries thing with a [discord tos violation] and 4/35 topics are programming related

[olive sable]

[rigid snow]

congrats for the most on topic channel in neurocord

[sick owl]

[olive sable]

being off-topic is standart programming behaviour

#programming is a community, not a topic

as much as the mods may not like that truth

[rigid snow]

31/42 for nn for comparison

[olive sable]

ye but what even is "ontopic" for nn?

neuro talk?

[rigid snow]

neuro evil vedal

everything related

[olive sable]

fair enouh

[tender river]

can ask mods to make a programming channel

[olive sable]

[tender river]

this just

i NOT nerd

[olive sable]

lets get the venndiagram

lets see

[rigid snow]

im none of this

[olive sable]

you have 20K messages in neurocord, and you make llms

im counting at least geek

[rigid snow]

i don't make llms

my only experience with that is

[olive sable]

hmm

actually

what do you do?

[rigid snow]

i tried to finetune a 1b model on rap lyrics
the result was complete garbage and nonsense

[olive sable]

[rigid snow]

that all my llm experience

[olive sable]

then what do you program?

[nocturne olive]

Meanwhile me, a vocal synthesist

[rigid snow]

web dev

mostly

[olive sable]

hmm

im still counting it

[rigid snow]

actual answer is whatever i feel like

[nocturne olive]

No more mappings is funny, since the game has no obfuscation for future releases meaning they're not really needed

[rigid snow]

not future releases. 26.1-snapshot-1 is out

we already here

clickbait title but it was pretty interesting

i love how black ops 7 asked how fun the match was after he ran the in-game benchmark

[amber fractal]

I'm somewhere the Geek/Nerd line

[olive sable]

nerd

[amber fractal]

(I'm backreading because I tried to download the neuro autism gif and it failed so I'm going back for it)

[amber fractal]

I just found your message

[olive sable]

to summarize it.
ai upscaling still sucks compared to native, even with raytracing.

[olive sable]

what message?

[amber fractal]

of the the gif earlier saying it took forever to download

[olive sable]

ah

ye

its 16MB

and discord is weird

[amber fractal]

this time it is download complete

instead of unsucessful download

I'm curious...

It's going to take a bit of work to make that a sticker

[olive sable]

too large i think ye

[amber fractal]

512kb limit for a 16MB file

As my usual rules go, I might as well reconstuct the clip first

Autism text was the easy part, found the correct burning text effect

[olive sable]

i think you could start by making it do less loops in one iteration of the gif

she waves her hands up and down multiple times for each time it plays i mean

[amber fractal]

stap giving me PNG

[olive sable]

9 times

[amber fractal]

Step one has been done

The tougher part is going to be finding the source clip, gonna have to scan the entire 3d debut vod for it

[amber fractal]

https://cooltext.com/Logo-Design-Burning

[fast pagoda]

Did you try avif

[amber fractal]

the first result for it is not the same, not crunchy enough to match

[fast pagoda]

Avif is tiny

It's just av1

Image animated

[amber fractal]

this was me trying to copy via clicking on the image

[fast pagoda]

This is so sad Alexa please play neurosama LIFE

[olive sable]

thats a gif

not avif

[amber fractal]

I usually like to reconstuct GIFs if I am trying to convert into stickers

[fast pagoda]

Yeah I just saved what you send just now I wasn't trying to demonstrate it heh

[olive sable]

ah

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

Idk if this will work because I'm on phone

Fuck

[olive sable]

image

[silent cloak]

So sad

[fast pagoda]

That's what I thought might happen

[amber fractal]

crunchy background over there

[silent cloak]

Alex play Neurosama covers

[amber fractal]

we love gif compression

I honestly have an idea to get the size down, but it's going to require a lot of things to go right

which in my case means it isn't happening

[silent cloak]

Nothing ever happens

[amber fractal]

Doing a superbox here, except this is VOD and theirfore compressed

[fast pagoda]

5 megs for webp

god dammit it was literally animated IN the message as i sent this

[silent cloak]

Bloat the gif to max nitro size

[amber fractal]

Yeah, the only way we are getting this lower is to cut down on runtime. Which is why I was planning on remaking the gif

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

nah im doing some ffmpegs to avifs in varying quality and keeping it sticker reso

[silent cloak]

Yummy bandwidth

[fast pagoda]

these arent animated IN discord tho

that's annoying as shit

they ARE animated

[olive sable]

i think make sure its 320x320 to lower size first

[fast pagoda]

discord seems to not support the animation in avif tho

[olive sable]

it does i think

[fast pagoda]

it cant because i am staring at these still animated

[amber fractal]

I can see it here

discord just doesn't like to animate on upload

[olive sable]

wdym?
the one you sent before?

its animated for me

[fast pagoda]

i have it as 704x704 in an avif and it's 554kb here

[amber fractal]

this is the only one not

[fast pagoda]

there now it's animated hgere

[olive sable]

it will need to be 320x320 or disocrd will downscale it themselves

[fast pagoda]

ah i see

one sec

ill get it tiny then

[olive sable]

so do that first instead of lowering quality in other ways

[amber fractal]

nah, your hitting file limit first. Just denied otherwise

[olive sable]

512kb ye

but to lower file size do the resolution down

[amber fractal]

no nitro to increase that sticker limit

I know it is 10mb here

[fast pagoda]

201kb for lower qual

[olive sable]

uh

[fast pagoda]

285kb for higher

[tender river]

@sage crag this wikihow illustration

[fast pagoda]

my file size limit is like 500 mb

or it was last time i checked

[olive sable]

which one is the high quality one?

[amber fractal]

it's 512kb

limit

[fast pagoda]

the only difference is crf50 vs 45

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

the crf50 is lower qual that

is 201kb

crf45 is 276kb

[amber fractal]

let me make sure this uploads

[tender river]

this could give someone food poisoning do better wikihow

[fast pagoda]

if i am questioning the egg

it's bad

that's my rule

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

F

i can do webp maybe it supports that

it'll be a bit bigger tho

i think maybe not too badly

[fast pagoda]

what the fug discord

[amber fractal]

webp is literally being used for embeds as well

this is a scam

[fast pagoda]

right like i swear they shoudl support webp

they just dont wanna

[amber fractal]

alright, APNG or GIF

we are so cooked

[tender river]

apng very bulky

[olive sable]

seems like i can only do avif for emojis

[tender river]

it also support json

last i checked

[fast pagoda]

i got webp down to 501 with like quality 27

[tender river]

not sure how json got there

[amber fractal]

[tender river]

but emoji uploader had it in allowed file types

[fast pagoda]

we out here w/ jsonmoji

[olive sable]

need gif or apng or whatever for sticker tho

[fast pagoda]

yea im seeing whta i can do

[amber fractal]

needs to be a sticker tho, emoji is just too smol

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

apng is gonna be dummy thicc i think

but so is gif

[amber fractal]

Alrighty, VOD downloaded

[olive sable]

bro is reverse engineering the gif

[amber fractal]

so now I get the fun time of hunting the frames down

[amber fractal]

as is tradition

looks at [FRICK YOU]

[fast pagoda]

gif to get it below 512 i had to reduce to 4 fps lmfao

at 320 res

[olive sable]

jsut do less loops

[fast pagoda]

yea i can reduce the length

[olive sable]

you're still doing the full file with 9 arm flops

[fast pagoda]

i wanted it to be full if possible

[patent shard]

which gets converted to a 4mb webp embed

[fast pagoda]

wtf

discord

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

APNG doesnt get below 2 mb even at 4fps LMAO

it's 2.5 mb

at 4 fps with the full length

[tender river]

yee webp much better

[fast pagoda]

avif is boss

[patent shard]

webp sucks for animated files
avif or h.264 or vp9 are good (I especially like vp9 and avif since it supports transparency)

but stickers, alas... limited choices

[fast pagoda]

avif is full res full length easily under the size limit

1/4th the length instead of 1/4th the fps = 489kb

this is gif

see if it takes this one ig

[olive sable]

its good, the loop is a bit choppy tho

its free labour so i cant complain tho

[fast pagoda]

yeah i literally did not even check what that looked like, i just ran ffmpeg with a split to get exactly 1/4th length since i knew that amount of frames would be under limit

and then i saw her hands were at least vaguely in place for the loop

so that's good

it's just her head and the background obv

only reason the original doesnt feel choppy is the length anyways

[olive sable]

true

[fast pagoda]

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

course emote accepted avif no problem

[olive sable]

discord is weird

[fast pagoda]

i literally had to make this emote

with avif

to associate the sticker

which would not allow the same file avif to be used

[olive sable]

emote is also only 256kb so i had to use the worse quaity one

[fast pagoda]

yeah i used the 201

[olive sable]

ye same

[fast pagoda]

but even that quality is better than gif's

[amber fractal]

This is the reason I'm reconstucting the GIF, so we don't have to go off of the badly compressed GIF

[fast pagoda]

it's probably still gonna be an issue

gif is just oldge

[olive sable]

at the end of the gif, the camera stopped moving.
so use that to take a single arm flail out of and make that into a loop

only 1 arm flail at 320x320 should already be good for file size

[fast pagoda]

yea lemme try to trim just a bit more

[silent cloak]

are u guys still struggling with using the gif format

[olive sable]

we're trying to improve it

[silent cloak]

lmao

[fast pagoda]

gif is just massive

[silent cloak]

tf is the size ug looking for

[fast pagoda]

various lengths

under 512

[olive sable]

[amber fractal]

[silent cloak]

wheres the original

[amber fractal]

this really is a Autism moment

[fast pagoda]

hahaha

this is the avif full length same size

[amber fractal]

this one

[fast pagoda]

original gif

[silent cloak]

ty

[olive sable]

you should brobably get the last part of the gif

camera doesnt move there

[fast pagoda]

yeah instead of starting from the front

[amber fractal]

I'm down to the first part of stream, somewhere

[silent cloak]

ill take a look tomorrow

[fast pagoda]

last 15/14/13/12 frames

[amber fractal]

It's going to be done one way or another tomorrow

[fast pagoda]

1st one is good

good-er

[olive sable]

[fast pagoda]

this looks really bad with no context maybe

KEK

[olive sable]

the mods are gonna gave a crisis when they see this

[fast pagoda]

lmao 2 frames is pic

epic

op

that's 1

[amber fractal]

The gif explains what is happening here

[copper urchin]

Hi

[amber fractal]

oh god damn it, I need to remeber not to be on battery power then doing heavy tasks

[fast pagoda]

ffmpeg go brr

[fast pagoda]

hello, welcom to autism general

[copper urchin]

Ty bru

[olive sable]

#autism

[amber fractal]

Nah, kdenlive to hunt down the orginal

[fast pagoda]

oh

kdenlive is like

weirdly heavy

last time i ran it

[amber fractal]

but it is also being transcoded, so partial points

[fast pagoda]

last time i used kden it was bogging hard and i ended up just downloading davinci resolve

for seeking i'd probably just be rolling around in like vlc or something of that sort

DRAGON player or whatever your prefered one is

[amber fractal]

A sane person would, but I'm just cutting sections it is not contained in so I can just export when I'm done.

[fast pagoda]

id say losslesscut is your best bet for that

for JUST that

that's what i use for quicc trimmies

but it's also wonky sometimes

classic

[amber fractal]

At this point I'm too far invested

I'll make sure to use it next time

[fast pagoda]

there's som shitty gnome app that video trimming ultra simply without having to ffmpeg cli

forgor what it's called

[silent cloak]

extract the image sequence

optimize each frame

shove it back together

eZ

[fast pagoda]

that's what ffmpeg does basically anyways

think it might be this

crazy name

never would've guessed

yeah

sooooo simple

so good

this guy is based

too bad it's gnome related

[olive sable]

everytihng always goes back to linux distros

gnome isnt a distro it's a plague

[olive sable]

Back in Gimmelshtump in the days of my youth, the Doofenshmirtzs' were a proud family. But those were lean times for my father and our beloved lawn gnome was repossessed. Who would protect our zatzenfruit garden from witches spells and wood trolls? From a tender age, my father decided that it would be me. While the other children played Kick-the-Schtumpel and ate Doonkelberries, I would stand for hours. All through the cold night as the Spitzenhounds howled, my only companion was the moon. And my neighbor Kenny. And since my lawn gnome was taken away from me, I will destroy every lawn gnome in the entire Tri-State Area!

[rough bloom]

valid

[fast pagoda]

[olive sable]

this gif hurts to look at tbh

actual epilepsy warning needed

and i dont even have epilepsy

i think

[silent cloak]

i think its broken

[fast pagoda]

it has like 1 frame of something

assumed it was a jumpscare

[olive sable]

it says something allong the lines of "something went wrong" or whatever

[silent cloak]

its gnome

[amber fractal]

[silent cloak]

its one of the gnome errors i think

[fast pagoda]

classic human movement there neuro you're blending in

[olive sable]

actually, thts not even the same one

[amber fractal]

I did notice that as well

[olive sable]

the one we're using goes vertical

[olive sable]

chay has been typing for like 5 minuts now

[amber fractal]

Back to the grind for the other one

[fast pagoda]

AI summaries faithfully attempting to summarize a conversation full of sarcasm and irony and metaphor are honestly the best thing to come out of AI

they do their best

[silent cloak]

i love those

[fast pagoda]

my phone has started doing it to notifications

and i left it on because they're funny

[tender river]

oh getting a uk visa was its whole journey
i delayed it until like a month before the live, at that point my parents said its probably too late (i also needed to have my passport shortly after the live so i couldnt just gamble), then a week or two later i looked up processing times online and realized theres still a chance i might make it and even if i dont i should at least get my passport back in time, so at like 6am i went to a different city to submit my visa application, realized i didnt have some required documents and didnt have any english-translated versions, i didnt have my laptop so i had to ask my dad for the scans and translations (at night ), but by morning it was already too late for same day appointment so i had to stay another night, on the third day i finally managed to submit the application
2 days before the live (technically 3 but at the end of the workday) they said they made a decision and i could get my passport back, so i packed my backpack hoping the decision was positive, and indeed it was so i flew to london straight from the visa center city rather than from home city arrived on the day of the live
that felt super lucky

[fast pagoda]

wwait this is sick

[silent cloak]

ones like these i love

[fast pagoda]

amazing

yeah i got a trial of google home premium or whatever when i got this phone and it was attempting to summarize like

me walking outside in my underwear to get the mail when nobody was looking

and my cat walking by

and it was attempting to not say that basically

those were great

imagine not doing a boxers dash to the mailbox

[silent cloak]

i have a really funny one but i cant send it i dont think

[fast pagoda]

i have a video of me still from back in high school of me diving into a frozen lake in just some briefs, that was a cold experience, crazy girlfriend trhought it would be funny so i did it at least i got video from it

[silent cloak]

sent u the vid

its a whole compilation

[fast pagoda]

i had my audio set to my sonos like

entier house

and that notification sound

was so fucking loud

i had it set way high for some reason

[olive sable]

afyun, have you ever thought about wearing pants?

[fast pagoda]

nope

im not wearing pants rn ngl

[olive sable]

well there's your issue

[fast pagoda]

i mean i have boxer briefs on it's not like i'm goin buckwild over here

[olive sable]

im in pyjamas all day
i think thats at least marginally better

[silent cloak]

anyone of us could be sitting on the computer with nothing on and no one would know

so its best to not question or think about it

[olive sable]

stop

[fast pagoda]

i assume everyone is

[olive sable]

thats weird to think about

[silent cloak]

exactly

lmao

[olive sable]

id rather not think about that

this is a cognitohazard

[silent cloak]

its a infohazard

[fast pagoda]

justr imagine the WoW player guy from south park

but

[silent cloak]

lmaoooo

[fast pagoda]

nothing on

that's everyone

[olive sable]

noooo

[rigid snow]

i am in fucking jeans at 4 in the morning

[fast pagoda]

im sorry to hear that

[rigid snow]

because why not

[olive sable]

im always in pyjamas or clothes pretty much

[rigid snow]

same

[fast pagoda]

i wear pants all day at work ya know

[olive sable]

i like being clothed

[silent cloak]

remember someone here could be lying

[olive sable]

i dont mind them lying tbh. makes me keep a more positive image of them

[rigid snow]

why would i type that out when i can just you know
not involve myself in the conversation

[olive sable]

this is a pretty weird conversation. lets move on

[rigid snow]

ye i was the most normal congrats

and sam

[fast pagoda]

the ai tiptoeing around that

[amber fractal]

real

[fast pagoda]

i find it no weirder than programming socks in general but hey i do generally have like shorts on at home tbh, i just found it funny that you brought it up, and it's because i literally got out of bed to trim gifs so

[olive sable]

going outside without pants is just asking to get ticks

[fast pagoda]

my mail is like 1 foot from door

[amber fractal]

I'm just going to exist and not get caught in any of these summeries

[rough bloom]

lucky indeed
interesting that they make a decision, tell you that they made a decision, but don't actually tell you the decision itself

[olive sable]

B plot convo happenign too

[fast pagoda]

i am so glad i dont have to worry about visas for the most part

that whole process sounds awful

[silent cloak]

many horror stories from streamers

[fast pagoda]

i hear that all the time but i kinda always assumed that's due to them being streamers

[amber fractal]

I can't speak from personal experince, but my sibling had to deal with it going to japan then soon china

[olive sable]

today has been the weirdest day in #programming of the whole season so far

[fast pagoda]

and therefore as a rule always doing everything the last possible second and wrong

[silent cloak]

lmao

[rigid snow]

uk visas here are known to be particularly painful, chay is lucky

[silent cloak]

na a lot of those places just screw everyone over

[olive sable]

i went when it was still in eu so i wouldn't know

[silent cloak]

if they dont like u thats enough reason for them to usually deny u

[fast pagoda]

japan i almost died handling covid stuff which in retrospect was super simple

but that's the closest thing i've ever had to get to having a visa anyways

[amber fractal]

you have failed the vibe check, off with your travels

[fast pagoda]

yeah no thanks

[silent cloak]

thats often the stories ive heard from people

which is crazy

[fast pagoda]

i start sweating at US immigration intake w/e but the citizen one where they literally don't care

[tender river]

me lied at border control not say which one

[fast pagoda]

used to go in and out of canadia on the MI Driver's license and that was super chill tho

they'd always ask us when we went over at 19 and came back with hehe canada 19 drinking age things

and we were like haha no never :^)

never checked

just heading over to toronto for some poutine sir

[sick owl]

Wtf, someone knocked off the director of MITs fusion research lab https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly08y25688o

[fast pagoda]

wtf

[sick owl]

He probably had some especially nasty enemies in the energy industry right?

Can't help but see that as suspicious

[silent cloak]

i was about to say

[fast pagoda]

AT his apartment

doesnt sound random

[silent cloak]

its up there with cancer researches getting killed suspiciously

very sus

[fast pagoda]

inb4 idiot who doesnt know fusion vs fission

LE RADIOTON

[rigid snow]

i mentioned amsterdam as one of the places i'd like to go to my parents and my dad was immediately like "aha canals yeah sure bud"

"more like cannabis"

[fast pagoda]

lmao

just a large enjoyer of coffee

[sick owl]

Tbh I don't find that overly suspicious, unscrupulous wealthy types generally still want cancer cured

[fast pagoda]

big potat hiding the cure

[silent cloak]

big pharma

[sick owl]

Now that I think about it, could be the energy industry, could be a foreign adversary worried about the muricans catching up

[fast pagoda]

at least in the US they'd still make hella bank on a cure

[sick owl]

You actually have a lot of scary people with a bone to pick with you in his position

[silent cloak]

they would still likely die suspiciously

[sick owl]

Its just not something you normally consider

[fast pagoda]

just big pants gonna come take me out

after earlier

[silent cloak]

big Gnome is gonna take u out

[olive sable]

there is, another...

[fast pagoda]

big gnome is already taking me out

[sick owl]

I think its one of those cases where the range of plausible scenarios is just so huge people are gonna run away with it

[fast pagoda]

with their worthless 'contributions' to wayland development

[sick owl]

I'm not a tinfoil hat type but the guys death is suspicious, that said it could just as easily be a disgruntled student or loon he had an argument with

We'll likely never know

[fast pagoda]

true

[sick owl]

I like GNOME ↓

[fast pagoda]

oh yeah you like gnome tweaks

[sick owl]

Correct

[fast pagoda]

why is that even a thing hmmm

because gnomed sucks

theyre basic things

[fast pagoda]

gnome is apple osnix

[sick owl]

Okay lowkey I do regret going with gnome a little but I cba to rebase lol

[silent cloak]

truth nuke

[fast pagoda]

home folder in root fs

[silent cloak]

atleast they get along

[fast pagoda]

dont let your friends be this guy

[olive sable]

you've been GNOMED

https://tenor.com/view/excited-fuego-gif-26833875

[rigid snow]

oh true i forgot ye that too

[sick owl]

I do like how you hit one button and have system wide search or tiles in gnome

[fast pagoda]

i mean i dont feel so strongly about it that i would devolve to actually attacking someone for using it lol, i just dont like it myself and like to exaggerate

[fast pagoda]

i mean i hit super for this

[silent cloak]

install it on a friends computer

so u can gnome them

[olive sable]

i dont actually care much about kde vs gnome

i have no clue what im even using

[fast pagoda]

i have tried to use gnome, often when i go to debian or something i'll give gnome another go

and it's always like

[amber fractal]

[fast pagoda]

where the fuck is the goddamn <basic functionality>

and then it's like oh yeah you have to mod ur gnome bro

????????????

[olive sable]

i think im on kde, i have no clue

[tender river]

you're using neither

hyprland

[fast pagoda]

WINDOWS has more configuration

[rigid snow]

bro is on hyprland and doesn't know he's on hyprland

that's insane bruh

[fast pagoda]

hyprland is its own thing

[silent cloak]

hyper gnome

[fast pagoda]

tbf i think he literally has only ever used hyprland

like that was install #1 and he's stuck with it or very close to that

[olive sable]

i googled what cachyos uses and it said kde but i guess its wrong

[fast pagoda]

slopmode?

[olive sable]

im mixing up terms

[fast pagoda]

oh

[rigid snow]

it's its own thing as was already said

[fast pagoda]

cachy uses kde

by default

but you can config when you install

[olive sable]

ah

[fast pagoda]

it will let you use a bunch of different ones

kde is default

[olive sable]

i see

[fast pagoda]

you can run gnome cachy if you want

[olive sable]

nah

i odnt want

[fast pagoda]

but why you would, that's another question

i wanted to run sway but it never liked my config (prob nvidia lule)

https://wiki.cachyos.org/installation/desktop_environments/

[amber fractal]

Okay, I got it

[fast pagoda]

screenshots here if you're curious the general default look of each at least on cachy

i miss qtile a bit, used that for a while as well as openbox which i also liked

[rigid snow]

openbox

haven't heard that in a whiiile

[opaque sigil]

niri seems neat

[fast pagoda]

i have used niri and cosmic on my laptop at varying times

niri i've only tried because of brodie

but it was neat

i still dont like enforced tiling even if it's disguised as scrolling

i know you can have free floating windows in niri as well

cosmic is nice switching on the fly also

[amber fractal]

I did swap off hyprland for a bit to experiment, but lack of protocol support brought me back to hyprland

[fast pagoda]

what kind of protocol support

i3 was neat when i was using archcraft lol

[rigid snow]

bro what

[amber fractal]

was some other tiler, I forget the name

[fast pagoda]

hyprland is like the most obtuse environment to me

[amber fractal]

that's just the systemd hater name for Gnome

[olive sable]

#programming message

[fast pagoda]

like you can get used to hyprland for sure and then i feel like it'd be hard to swap off it probably

but that's a general thing with most de

[olive sable]

i like using my keyboard

[fast pagoda]

you can use your keyboard all the same in like any de

it will just have different defaults

but i get it

[amber fractal]

I liked the enviroment, being able to swap from tiling to scrolling and others. Just had trouble with apps and such.

[fast pagoda]

qtile is fun since it's python based

kinda

[amber fractal]

python configuration yeah

[fast pagoda]

i liked qtile's defaults, i liked cosmic's defaults, i like kde defaults, all of them feel pretty normal to me

hyprland has very strange choices

i knwo you can change them but damn son

omarchy defaults w/ hyprland made more sense than ootb hypr lol

[amber fractal]

looks at Super+Q for terminal

[fast pagoda]

who has that

[glad path]

i thought this was the vscode logo lmfao

[fast pagoda]

that's activities for me

[amber fractal]

that is quit the app for me

[opaque sigil]

that's ctrl q

[rigid snow]

i don't like anything and it's a problem
closest thing for me is probably fullscreening apps on macos and swiping between them? it's kinda scrolling but not quite, i don't like scrolling wms

[olive sable]

i close apps with win+q

[fast pagoda]

ctrl W is quit for me

[olive sable]

win+d is open app list to launch something. win+enter is terminal fish, win+e is file explorer

[rigid snow]

terminal fish

[olive sable]

fish

[fast pagoda]

win e is kde default exploder

[olive sable]

its temrinal

[rough bloom]

it seems like a pretty normal tiling compositor to me
I recently switched from Hyprland to Niri (unlimited space )
the only real annoyance I had is that workspaces always have to be contiguous, I can't have workspace 9 without also having some app in workspaces 1-8, but that seems like a Niri-specific thing to me
change

[rigid snow]

fish is a shell

not terminal

[fast pagoda]

fish is a shell

[olive sable]

dont care

[fast pagoda]

[amber fractal]

I need to redo my binds, I get confused by them

[olive sable]

i had to install one. im usign thunar

[amber fractal]

I don't have one currently

[olive sable]

my pc has fish, its terminal

[fast pagoda]

kde uses dolphin default but you can install whatever you want as usual

you are running it in some other terminal

like i use zsh in wezterm or fish in wezterm normally

[amber fractal]

kitty fish here

[rigid snow]

terminal fish sounds like you look at your nearly extinct fish

[fast pagoda]

it was totally different than what i was used to in qtile or it felt different enough that was the feeling i got

gotta go visit my ffish in the ICU

[olive sable]

no, its my pc. its a condition my pc has. its terminal

fish

https://tenor.com/view/fish-spin-sha-gif-26863370

[fast pagoda]

what is the executable called if you need to close the entire window

[olive sable]

uh

what do you mean?

[fast pagoda]

it's not fish

[rigid snow]

xterm

[olive sable]

i dont get what he means

[fast pagoda]

like if you open btop and look to pkill it in the list

[rigid snow]

the terminal emulator

[fast pagoda]

or just run ps

[olive sable]

i open fish and type pkill

[fast pagoda]

😮‍💨

[olive sable]

or i do win+q

[rigid snow]

on windows for example it's WindowsTerminal.exe

[olive sable]

that does not help

i still have no clue what you're talking baout

[rigid snow]

what terminal do you use

[olive sable]

fish

[rigid snow]

is the question

[fast pagoda]

brotha

[rigid snow]

that's a shell

[fast pagoda]

fish cannot render itself

it does not have the ability to

so there's another executable being launched when you hit your fish shortcut

that fish is running inside

that's the terminal

[rigid snow]

crazy to see
minecraft 2 jokes

[warped narwhal]

Minecraft 26?

[rigid snow]

ye it's the new versioning system

[warped narwhal]

What happened to Minecraft 2 through 25?

[fast pagoda]

fish, but as you can see it's running in konsole, konsole is the terminal

[amber fractal]

clipping the frames with text, we have 4 seconds of autism

[tender river]

https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_26.1

[fast pagoda]

new version format

[tender river]

1.21.11 -> 26.1

[fast pagoda]

we'll start with 26.1

fuck you mojang

[rigid snow]

it's year.featuredrop.patch

[fast pagoda]

i mean i guess it's basically distro naming

yeah

[rigid snow]

1st feature drop

of the year

[fast pagoda]

im on mc 24.04

cna i join ur serberv

i have backpatches bro security fixes bro cmon3

bedrock = mc LTS

poop! os (this was a typo but i laugh so im leaving it) is going to roll out yung pop 24.04 or something but in 2026

since theyve missed this whole year

or 25.10 or something not 24.04

[olive sable]

im looking at my kewybinds now, and there are a bunch of things i didnt know existed

win+space does the same thing as win+d apparently

[fast pagoda]

alt + space is krunner for me but that's the closest keybind to super+space i think

[olive sable]

bindd = $mainMod, RETURN, Opens your preferred terminal emulator ($terminal), exec, $terminal $terminal
still have no clue what terminal that is

[fast pagoda]

i think windows powertoys has their little runner thing on alt+space too

it should say on the title of the window

i know hyprland doesn thave that by default

or something

[olive sable]

$terminal = alacritty

[fast pagoda]

but

[olive sable]

huh

[fast pagoda]

that checks out

alacritty failed my terminal test too hard to use it

wezterm was the only one that did it like perfectly like a year ago so surely nothing has changed whatsoever

[amber fractal]

kill me

[fast pagoda]

konsole does well now it seems

[warped narwhal]

Must be new cause yazi didn't show sixel images in konsole for me recently

[fast pagoda]

im swapped to my other pc and it's on debian so i'd imagine it's not a bleeding edge thing for this case

it is debian 13 tho

[warped narwhal]

Termux fails abysmally

[amber fractal]

turned it into a sequence and now I can properly edit it

[fast pagoda]

jesus

lol that's one of the worse results

sakura failed sixel RIP

rio fails p hard but not as bad as termux

[warped narwhal]

How does alacrity do?

[fast pagoda]

ill tell ya in a sec

[amber fractal]

Take your fullscreen autism clip

[olive sable]

ah yes

succulent

[fast pagoda]

blinking fail, no sixel, fails double underline and overline in cases

[idle dune]

And yes

I settled on Ubuntu

[fast pagoda]

huge

[warped narwhal]

And how about kitty?

[idle dune]

My coworkers will be subjected to cut Paccha Neuro art as my desktop

[opaque sigil]

interestingly enough none of the terminals i try seem to show the colours

[fast pagoda]

last time kitty failed but not as bad as alacritty

[fast pagoda]

system thing? i havent really had one totally fail that like

ever

[opaque sigil]

maybe idk

[warped narwhal]

Is there any that passes all tests and also has GPU acceleration?

[fast pagoda]

slightly better then alacritty

wezterm is gpu accelerated

interestingly the current version of wezterm i have regressed on it a bit

goddammit wez

right to left is messed up and the sixel failed to render properly now

[sick owl]

Oh hey they're doing an official version of my favourite adorable hobbyist robots from Japan

https://m5stack.com/stackchan

[fast pagoda]

can i turn them into real life medarot

[glad path]

bad answer ngl

iterm handles ansi pretty well

[fast pagoda]

cool retro term i had weird hope (but previously it was always bad and still isn't great)

[sick owl]

People do all sorts of silly things with them

[glad path]

iterm

[sick owl]

https://botamochi6277.github.io/stackchan-zoo/

[glad path]

iterm2

if you can test it

iterm2 is good

[fast pagoda]

unless there's a port of iterm to linux

[sick owl]

Personally I like this bus one

[glad path]

uhh

can i paste the program into shell

or do i gotta make a file and chmod it

[fast pagoda]

you just save it in a text editor as whatever.sh then run it from terminal

mine is named terminal_testdrive.sh

[sick owl]

And this face tracking death machine

[fast pagoda]

but yeah you'd have to chmod

[glad path]

blink it blinking

[sick owl]

Also this fubuki

[glad path]

right to left failed

[fast pagoda]

missing colours and sixel for sure

[glad path]

wait

holdon

sixel was working before

[rigid snow]

this would probably go so hard with less bloom and on an oled display

[glad path]

or doing SOMETHING

i resized the term thats why prolly

no clue where the color is

[fast pagoda]

i love how cool retro term looks with this theme

[glad path]

iterm does have truecolor though

[fast pagoda]

if only it were actually a better terminal

[sick owl]

The profane bipedal stack chan

[fast pagoda]

(crt not iterm)

[fast pagoda]

these are like robotic chao

[sick owl]

They are kinda now that you mention it

[glad path]

iterm2 is honestly pretty good

only complaint is bg bugs sometimes

ok bye

[fast pagoda]

wonder how windowsTerminal handles it when running it from wsl

[fast pagoda]

transformers + cardboard whatever that weird VR/ar thing was

Ye, they're designed as a modular budget thingy for makers

the creature

[olive sable]

the screen thing is around 40-60 bucks dependign on the model it seems ye

[sick owl]

Their official kits kickstarter is on a pledge discount so its 40 bucks atm, but then I'd prefer to buy the parts separately anyway personally

this guys ones are eldritch

They're kinda like an ultra budget reachy mini actually

Anyway, I got to stop looking at these or I'll be at it all night

[trim valve]

Im thoroughly enjoying trying to figure out nix stuff at 3am

[olive sable]

is that sarcasm i sense?

[trim valve]

50/50

on one hand, its better than not sleeping

on the other hand, the solution seems to be:
"don't try and write the networkmanager config by hand in nix. instead, use the nm-cli and then run nm2nix"

[tender river]

networkmanager

iwd

[trim valve]

international womens day

I'm gonna stop you there

this isn't even for a wireless machine

[tender river]

why networkmanager then

[trim valve]

i can't see another way to add a palo alto networks vpn to a nixos machine

idk I see no reason not to use networkmanager here

[tender river]

oo another annoying protocol you can use networking.openconnect tho

[tender river]

me networkmanager hater

[trim valve]

oh true ig I can cut out the networkmanager

[trim valve]

for any reason

or just the usual linux user hates software

[tender river]

both

[trim valve]

now the next game

is to figure out how to make it work with SAML

(surely its just that easy)

[tender river]

networkmanager had random issues for me iwd never networkmanager opaque do many thing in one package it convenient for DE integration but annoying for power user

[olive sable]

SAML?

[trim valve]

I think its part of how my uni's sso works or something

idk enough about it

looks possible

[tender river]

nmtui best part of networkmanager hate all other part

[rigid snow]

ye we were schizoing about sso the other day

oh i get it

sam l

[olive sable]

[trim valve]

hmm

do I keep this as a theoretical nix config

or do I get up and fuck with my pc

[olive sable]

yes

I wanted 2x32gb ddr5 kit but looks like I'm waiting another year

[minor crag]

I had to half the amount of ram I'm buying just so I could afford it

[minor crag]

Its only £599

[half socket]

what if you use old SSDs as RAM

[umbral thorn]

literally quack competition

[olive sable]

stop flexing how rich you are

[quick condor]

Im thinking of selling it at these prices

[olive sable]

wouldnt be a bad idea

[quick condor]

Like I like having it but at this point it's hard to justify not doing it

[minor crag]

The ram kit I want is about the same price as the CPU and just a bit cheaper than the RX 9070 XT

[zealous fiber]

my 7200 2x16 kit i got for $150 is like $600 rn

[olive sable]

my ddr4 4x16 3600 i got toghether with my mobo and 5950x for 300bucks is now also 700

[minor crag]

I think my PC might have to be on am3

[umbral thorn]

[minor crag]

Then I might be able to afford some ram

[umbral thorn]

then how much 12x 64gb ddr5 ecc worth now...

[olive sable]

a fuckton

[zealous fiber]

i can sell my pc for more than i got it for despite my gpu being half the price it was

[quick condor]

The kit in the picture is going for 15k, the fact that it is almost as much as a cheap base model car makes me a little sick

[zealous fiber]

its kinda stupid

[young plover]

Over 100 times higher latency. Computer goes unresponsive.
And the trashing will kill it if you're constantly moving things into swap.

If I remove 1 GPU I could afford my 128GB kit

im watching some video on lithography

[quick condor]

Wtf... I could probably get a blackwell

[amber fractal]

Sir, how many kits did you get? 4x32 is 2k. Why do you need 3 kitz

[sick owl]

This is setting off my scam radar big time

[olive sable]

jsut get a 2ndhand 3090. only 500 bucks and still good gpu

[sick owl]

Ram wouldn't go for nearly that cheap in this day and age

[zealous fiber]

nah you don't understand its got rgb and its white

[amber fractal]

I've seen 2tb for cheaper on a server

[zealous fiber]

thats +$700 per stick

[quick condor]

I know that seller, it's a legit listing
