[patent shard]

I mean, this is a big difference
before it was like high quality, indistinguishable quality, lossless
and then the difference between indistinguishable quality and lossless is massive, probably like crf 18 versus crf 0 (not sure if those are the exact values)
I would love to be able to do like crf 12

such small changes that I'm surprised it wasn't added sooner

I have a bit of a weird request...
I'm trying to make something in apple's Shortcuts app that gets messages from NN and reads them with TTS, with each user getting a different voice. How do I read messages from the channel?

[rigid snow]

ye that's crazy

i don't think there's a way to

[rough bloom]

there isn't a way without breaking Discord ToS, yeah

unless you want to OCR the messages from screenshots

[rigid snow]

i am certified shortcuts enjoyer (fucking hate it)

[worthy niche]

tried that, didn't work very well...

[worthy niche]

Even if I just read the messages from the discord website? I wouldn't be automatically sending messages or anything, just reading

[rough bloom]

the "correct" way to do this is to put a bot in the server that can then read those messages
but that has to be added by the server owners, not gonna happen here

does anyone here happens to be well versed in neovim and willing to help me troubleshoot some lsp issues, particularly with typescript?

I'm on like day 13 of trying tofigure this out and I'm losing my mind

[hearty notch]

data scraping becomes problematic when you write scripts to quickly traverse lots of different pages programmatically

having something that looks at the current page is fine

[rough bloom]

ye, as long as you just read the currently open page I think it should be fine even with Discord ToS

(though it's not like Discord will obliterate you for what is basically a macro anyway, as long as you aren't hitting rate-limits or are somehow harming the platform)

[hearty notch]

theprimeagen discord has a decent amount of nvim enthusiasts but im not one of them. theres probably better suggestions than this but i dont know them.

like I'm working on this as an idea in my own time because it sounds funny

[rigid snow]

it's easier to make a mold of someone's fingerprint you only need like a photo of it

[olive sable]

but cant you just use a picture of someone for faceid?

[rigid snow]

no it's depth scanning

lidar

[olive sable]

is it?

maybe only on iphone

[rigid snow]

apple's face id is

pixel 4 had it too

[olive sable]

windows and android face id all sucks iirc

[rigid snow]

i remember samsung had retina scanning

[olive sable]

might be an execption

[rigid snow]

what ever happened with that

[rigid snow]

afaik it is

[rigid snow]

good luck making a convincing enough 3d mold of someone's face that probably won't work anyways since it tends to nitpick

it works in an interesting way

it doesn't work half the time at first when you set it up but then you enter your pin while looking at it and it learns all the different ways you look

if they're close enough

there are many known cases of twins entering another's pin and it eventually working for both

[sick owl]

Ya know, not a fan of having to rely so heavily on DLSS in modern games but I can't deny it looks great when the trickery comes together

That's 120hz 4k path traced cyberpunk

Just a shame your options are path tracing or raster for a stable image in this game

Not exactly scalable

[olive sable]

some cyberpunk type shit

[rigid snow]

polarization like

i don’t get it

magnetic fields??

[opaque sigil]

no it's a light thing

[visual pawn]

And I made the terrible mistake of saying that sounded like BS

Apparently the revelation that many numbers could be divided by multiples of 3 was going to break encryption forever

[opaque sigil]

idk it's weird

but it works for mapping out a face

[rigid snow]

oh that kind of polarization

[opaque sigil]

since it takes into account the material too

so it's even better than lidar in theory

[olive sable]

what are we making a multiplayer RPG?

[real sierra]

and this time...

im not making my own engine

character development

[tender river]

this time you're making a game

[olive sable]

allow me to introduce myself

[real sierra]

the code in the old one was

truly something else

turns out

making a multiplayer game in java

is not easy

unless you use a library

despite my clever use of java reflection to create a class that would allow synchronization of any serializable object

i think its incredibly insecure looking back on it

threat actor could probably inject something yikes into the data stream if they got a position as a MITM

[olive sable]

what game we talking about?

[real sierra]

back in 2023 i was working on a multiplayer rpg for this server

it was really terrible

[olive sable]

[real sierra]

but i got far enough to test the multiplayer with others

and it did work (mostly)

[sick owl]

Tbh while I'm using it and enjoying the game here I kind of hate path tracing

A lot of the time its just the newest shiniest expensive thing they slap in despite huge issues with artifacting and a degradation of the intended artistic presentation

[olive sable]

path tracing hate in my christian discord server

[amber fractal]

I think it is actually hate on lack of optimization that lead path tracing to be bad preformance wise

[sick owl]

My real problem with it is that its an impractical technology being pushed as though its consumer ready

[olive sable]

yep

[rigid snow]

idk where you got that from

i never perceived it as “consumer ready”

[olive sable]

you didnt?

[rigid snow]

it has always been a gimmick option

[olive sable]

the marketing i hear form it acts as if its the next big thing

[sick owl]

I mean I'm on a 4090 in 4K right, that's the ideal environment for it

You still see artifacts

[rigid snow]

ok do you mean ray tracing

[sick owl]

No path tracing

I like ray tracing

[rigid snow]

then yeah i meant what i said

[olive sable]

path tracing is like ray tracing but even more expensive

[rigid snow]

it’s a gimmick

[potent geyser]

How to optomize those? It feels like a lot developer just press a button in the engine setting.

[visual pawn]

Isn't path tracing a subset of ray tracing

[olive sable]

yes

[amber fractal]

if I knew, I'd bug sam about it

[olive sable]

path tracing is like raytracing but you have many random directions of rays per pixel

[visual pawn]

And it's simulating multiple bounces

[opaque sigil]

you wait and hope the hardware gets faster

[rigid snow]

in terms of what those effectively do it’s more like a superset

[amber fractal]

my head isn't completely done with the idea yet, but damn it is going to be a fun time.

[rigid snow]

ray tracing is just the lighting, path tracing is the whole thing

[visual pawn]

I kinda just see it as further down a spectrum of ray tracing rather than a distinct category

[rigid snow]

is how these terms are used

[olive sable]

raytracing still has bounces, but it doenst do a lot of rays per pixel.
raycasting is without the bounces

[rigid snow]

raycasting

[rare bramble]

waits for hardware to get faster...
remembers that Wirth's law exists

[sick owl]

Problem is in cyberpunk for example you get artifacts on every setting except raster, with path tracing being more stable than ray tracing which means CDPR now use it as a crutch despite its insane performance hit and the many artifacts and issues you still get

[opaque sigil]

it probably wouldn't be as bad if nvidia cared

[sick owl]

They could have just fixed the ray traced image

[opaque sigil]

but alas, they clearly don't

[sick owl]

But they decided to push path tracing instead

[rigid snow]

path tracing is like blender cycles, ray tracing is just the lighting and reflection pass

[sick owl]

And so to get a halfway decent image on my 4090 I need to use raster or DLSS performance with 2x frame gen

[olive sable]

cycles is just pathtracing ye

[sick owl]

It looks nice but I hate it

[olive sable]

raytracing does the exact same thing as pathtracing except only 1 ray per pixel

so pathtracing with its hundreds or thousands of rays in random directions per pixel is more acurate, and a lot more expensive

[rigid snow]

is it not just the lighting

am i wrong

[olive sable]

yes

i had an exam on this

[rigid snow]

fuck i know what i’m mixing it up with

fucking lumen or whatever it’s called and similar

those are just raytracing the lighting

[opaque sigil]

here we go

lumen rant time

[olive sable]

lumen does use raytracing iirc

but not directly

[rigid snow]

ye it does that’s what i said

it just does the lighting

which i think is a good idea

[olive sable]

lumen does some weird hybrid with caching and screen-space traces

i dont know the exact details

[rigid snow]

i don’t know why it’s bad or good i just don’t care enough about graphics settings

[potent geyser]

Isn't lumen really expensive

[rigid snow]

i just choose a preset that looks fine and performs fine

[olive sable]

lumen isnt bad in theory. but people need to stop usign it as an instant solution for realistic lighting

and it is quite expensive ye

cheaper than full raytracing tho i think

Yeah Lumen is honestly a decent solution, it just gets abused

[olive sable]

i have a much bigger issue with nanite

[rigid snow]

Lumen's secondary focus is on clean indoor lighting at 30 FPS on next-generation consoles. The engine's Epic scalability level produces around 8 milliseconds (ms) on next-generation consoles for global illumination and reflections at 1080p internal resolution, relying on Temporal Super Resolution to output at quality approaching native 4K.

here’s the problem

aiming at 30 fps @ 1080 on consoles

[olive sable]

8 ms

an entire frame at 8ms delta is 125fps

so they're already getting less than 125fps

[rigid snow]

that’s just lighting and reflections yep

wait no

just GI

[opaque sigil]

shitty rdna2 gpu will do that i guess

[rigid snow]

[sick owl]

Yeah there's a reason software lumen is the default

[olive sable]

the ps5 isnt that bad. im suprised they managed to fuck it up like this

[potent geyser]

Throw my hardware at the problem. While the user still using something crazy like GT7800

[opaque sigil]

ok but the gpu is pretty bad at rt

[olive sable]

i wouldnt know

[rigid snow]

you have a ps5 lil bro

[olive sable]

i know

havent used it in a year or 2

[opaque sigil]

i hope you used it for the one ps5 game at least

[olive sable]

afaik the raytracing in astro bot looked fine tho.

[rigid snow]

i would be concerned if you didn’t know you’re in possession of a ps5

[olive sable]

its downstairs in the theatre room

[visual pawn]

I sometimes forget I have a PS5

[olive sable]

i did use my ps5 the first 2 years it came out

but now i do more game dev than game play

thats the rules now?

[jagged turtle]

I have far too much name, I'm considering downsizing to just "Man". Anyone want the rest?

[jagged turtle]

ok imma do that

[amber fractal]

Anyone know the rules on deconstructing emojis?

[jagged turtle]

can I take the s, t and a?

[worthy niche]

Sure
S T a

[jagged turtle]

pretty sure it's just give away a letter and deconstruct it

[amber fractal]

I think mine would be more useful as letters

[olive sable]

give me your o then

[jagged turtle]

wait uh

what's the rules on capitalization

[olive sable]

flexible i think

[jagged turtle]

ah ok

[jagged turtle]

you forgot to remove from name

Yeah i was doing that

[jagged turtle]

[worthy niche]

Are there rules to this? I though this was just some silly spontaneous thing

[jagged turtle]

it was spontaneous

[worthy niche]

Any of my letters helpful?

[jagged turtle]

current rules of letterswap:

• not required but highly recommended to have {letterswap} in either pronouns, nickname or bio
• text -> emoji conversions & capitalization changes are flexible (do them whenever)
• emoji construction happens when you spell out the emoji (can be flexible in how to spell depending on context)
• emojis do not require colons (:) to construct
• symbol construction must be done according to the list here: #programming message
• emojis can only be transformed to and from its original meaning of construction (ex: you cannot construct 🧍‍♂️ from "man" and then deconstruct it to "human")
• spaces can be added or removed at will, they are not finite and won't crash the market
• when giving out a letter you must present the letter to "officially" give the letter, for example: "here is your e"
• remove letters from nickname after it has been claimed

am I missing something

[azure lynx]

it's the same picture.

[olive sable]

no

[amber fractal]

I was here late so idk

[worthy niche]

If an emoji has multiple names, could you turn one name into the emoji then turn that emoji into a different name?

[jagged turtle]

ooh good question

[olive sable]

[amber fractal]

I was thinking of something similar myself

[olive sable]

i think that could cause letter duplication

[amber fractal]

Fixing a loophole, emojis can only transform to and from the original meaning of construction.

[olive sable]

[jagged turtle]

done

[jagged turtle]

hi shiro can I borrow your ~

[amber fractal]

did you start with your entire name or did you just do ktrain? Just curious

[trim valve]

important question

how do you deal with spaces

or do you pretend they are free to add

[worthy niche]

add and remove them as you like (i think)

[jagged turtle]

I started with ktrain because it would be unfair to have my long-ass name count (also because I just thought it'd be more fun if I only started with ktrain)

[amber fractal]

I forgot that one, free to add

[trim valve]

that seems to be my view too

[jagged turtle]

spaces are not a finite resource

[trim valve]

hmm

[amber fractal]

[worthy niche]

I just gave away my name lol

[trim valve]

they issue is they don't get conserved under all circumstances

if you have trailing or leading whitespace it gets stripped

[jagged turtle]

well yeah that's why I said they aren't finite and why we go by the rule of spaces are free

[trim valve]

o

reading comprehension moment

[jagged turtle]

also how did you go from bird to bad

[trim valve]

uuh

Sam took some stuff

[jagged turtle]

lol

[jagged turtle]

we should star this btw

[amber fractal]

good idea

[jagged turtle]

what's the star req in this channel?

[amber fractal]

surely we'll get the numbers

[jagged turtle]

like 10 or smth?

[amber fractal]

20

[jagged turtle]

it's never getting on there

[amber fractal]

it was a miracle we got triangle up there

[jagged turtle]

btw my message has "rules of letterswap" so if you want you can just search for that to find rules

no need for pin

half finished impl

time to keep it half finished for as long as possible

[jagged turtle]

I think chayleaf started it by having missing letters but idk who was the first to give letters

[olive sable]

based on the server exp i calculated that you've been here for 9% of the last 3 years you've been in this server

[worthy niche]

why is working with text and lists so hard in apple shortcuts, it's making my project a real headache

[amber fractal]

let me work on a discord bot rq

It is about time I continuted doing so

not sure where I'm going to host it tho

[jagged turtle]

I need to uh finish something as well

[trim valve]

this has a stealing mechanic where its based on your name length and the target's name length

[amber fractal]

mabe on an old phone

[olive sable]

i geuss emoji conversion helps against stealing then

[trim valve]

so stealing letters from a rich player is easier than from a player with less letters

[amber fractal]

emoji conversion would be a pain 💯

[olive sable]

[trim valve]

emoji conversion would be eeh

possible but complicated

[amber fractal]

yeah, a lot of hardcoded lists of overrides

[trim valve]

I'd probably make another command to edit your name

that keeps checks, etc. in mind

[amber fractal]

I'm assuming your using discord.py right?

I forget if that can be installed as a user or not

or at least function as such

[trim valve]

like user-installable apps?

I think you can?

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.user_install

[amber fractal]

I forget how verbose discord.py is holy

[trim valve]

what

its like my preference for lib

[stray dragon]

yep

[trim valve]

outside of twilight

[amber fractal]

I'm just used to the lib I use having it abstracted a bit more

[trim valve]

idk I don't see how that's super different

[amber fractal]

yeah, mostly just syntax

also fair warning I am heavily biased towards liking d.py over other forks lol

what covid and getting interested in python does to an mf

[olive sable]

ye sure

pricing is only gonna go up

[amber fractal]

https://interactions-py.github.io/interactions.py/Guides/01 Getting Started/

I respect it

[trim valve]

also like

I still have most of the docs preloaded into my head

[trim valve]

yeah I don't agree with that api design

[amber fractal]

Understandable

[trim valve]

global state doesn't sit well with me

still, use whaterver's comfy

I should experiment with user installable apps at some point

they seem cool

[amber fractal]

they are!

I like how it reflects the permissions you have, so you could create a bot that deals in moderation in your prefered style and just install that onto yourself

[trim valve]

the biggest shame is I don't think it'd be possible to setup the name game without having a bot in the server

because I don't think there's a way to spontaneously make a user-installed app edit your name without triggering it first

[true hemlock]

@ vani

[amber fractal]

We could have all players install the bot, would have to check if name changes are allowed in the user mode

[trim valve]

I would imagine you can reimplement /nick

[true hemlock]

its the most convenient

[trim valve]

it has nice types

[true hemlock]

also mf actually did what i was considering doing lmao

shame im still not home

[trim valve]

you have time

[true hemlock]

but vacation ending soon

[trim valve]

I have no idea when I'll work on it

[amber fractal]

I'm not going after the letterswap, I'm just making a general bot so I can actually do /faq again

[true hemlock]

i was about to make it a fun project with elvy

[obsidian mantle]

What are you guys doing

[true hemlock]

can i take your a

[obsidian mantle]

If you explain whats happening

Will I have to become vituh

How does it work

[true hemlock]

yes

[trim valve]

hmm

I can't tell if it'd be possible to trigger another user to edit their name

[obsidian mantle]

But what do i get in return

Is it some program thats doing it or whats happening

[trim valve]

atm its just agreed rules

[obsidian mantle]

Where did random symbols come from

For example iggy's nickname

[trim valve]

I think

they changed words into emotes

[olive sable]

[obsidian mantle]

Ok but what do i get in return

I guess you arent trading your ducky

[amber fractal]

Sam managed to spell out triangle for second 🔺

[trim valve]

I think you need either to manually update your name after someone steals, or have a bot in the server

[obsidian mantle]

Well it would be weird if anyone could change anyones nickname

[trim valve]

yeah but if the bot was installed by both

[obsidian mantle]

What kind of bot is that

You can install bots in discord?

[trim valve]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/tutorials/developing-a-user-installable-app

[obsidian mantle]

I thought its like.. they join the server and thats it

[trim valve]

you could make it work for trading though

[obsidian mantle]

Is that even safe
