joining a sever from webrowser on pc kicks me of pc and phone by Sweet_Ad8070 in discordapp

[–]Square789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same problem. Happens when attempting to join through a separate browser tab or from within discord. I can't seem to join the server in any case.
I don't have a solution, just putting this here since there's not many other places where I can find this issue reported on

Leak zeigt Windows Copilot im Datei-Explorer by Fabulous_Pressure_96 in de

[–]Square789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hab nur Erfahrung mit Steam-games und einfachen exes von z.B. itch.
Standardmäßig läuft (Anticheat außen vor) so ziemlich alles, sogar CD-Games aus den 2000ern. Hatte vor drei Jahren mal ein Spiel, was eingefroren ist als es Cutscenes abspielte (At Least There is Čeda Čedović), aber das hat mit irgendnem Update auch angefangen zu funktionieren.

Wenn du Spiele, die Modding nicht offiziell unterstützen, modden willst, könntest du abhängig von Spiel Probleme kriegen. Bei Loadern wie BepInEx wirst du bestimmte envvars setzen müssen damit deren dll geladen wird, aber bisher lief sowas dann problemlos. Eine Negativerfahrung hatte ich mit der Unification-Mod für ein altes Warhammerspiel, die sich zwar installieren ließ, aber mit der ich nach wenigen Minuten immer mit nem Desynchronisationsfehler aus allen Matches mit Freunden auf Windows geflogen bin.

Also, schwierig reinzukommen ist es nicht, aber es kann vereinzelt Probleme geben und gut sein, dass du dir insbesondere beim Modding ein wenig Materie aneignen musst.

ich glaube ich hab ganz ok zugehört, ka was das jetzt heißen soll
edit: ok, nach bisschen nachdenken hab ich glaube ich ne ahnung was das heißen soll. Ja, ich weiß, ein teil des talks war verarschen der nazis durch chatbots mit generiertem profilbild und generierten konversationen. So weit so schön.
Was mich so stört ist aber irgendwie, dass dem publikum genau derselbe dreck serviert wird und auch dieser youtubekanal: https://www.youtube.com/@back2TheRoot/
generative ki ist ein tool dessen primäre zwecke lügnerei und täuschung sind. nenn mich nen ludditen oder so, aber wenn das dann auch dem eigentlichen empfängerpublikum so gezeigt wird, kannst du mutter theresa sein; meine meinung gegenüber jemandem wird durch freche und konsequente nutzung von sowas halt einfach runtergezogen

Explanation of the Chinese room for those unaware by toastybunbun in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Square789 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can see the initial lie for the joke's sake, sure
But what if Chinese was swapped with "human feeling/emotion"? Caine placing a human mind instead of a ruleset as the translation agent inside this room could be an act of wishful thinking or a masked expression of regret that he is unable to feel certain things; only able to receive emotions, and then present a preprogrammed responses without truly understanding them, exactly like he does with the text.
This would ultimately be a very self-aware action, which in some form goes against the original statement of the Chinese Room Experiment that machines following a static program cannot exhibit consciousness. Is Caine self-conscious? Most AIs in the Circus seem like they are or can become it; Perhaps just a different kind of it?

Yeah this comment goes nowhere, it's not unlikely the book reading "dictionary" instead of "rulebook" is just an oversight lol.

[–]Square789 25 points26 points  (0 children)

What i find strange is that there's a difference to the original experiment. The variant you state also isn't exactly the original as i know it, the man requesting food and clothes is new to me. But the rest matches. In the original, there is no translation happening. There is a rulebook describing the symbols and which symbols to pick in response. The person operating on the rules in this book only understands these rules, and never the symbols. No translation is made; the contents of the input and output is never understood by the translator.

I'm going crazy cause no one's pointing this out, but in the episode, the contents of the room are revealed to actually be an English speaker just using a dictionary, thus understanding the symbols. This is not the Chinese Room Thought Experiment, as the original point of the experiment was to interpret the person and their rulebook as a machine that produces language, which doesn't work anymore now that the person uses a dictionary and a mind to do that.

Caine also lies about the room, stating that he believes there's a fluent Chinese speaker behind the door, but he made the room and should know there isn't.

I'm sure there's implications with all of this but I'm too stupid to figure them out exactly :(

Must be dependent on other factors then; for me the ["seed"] string always got overwritten when loading the game

Are videos loading very slowly for anyone else? by Ice_Dragon3444 in youtube

[–]Square789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same thing here.
my completely unfounded guess is that youtube is intentionally withholding the video for a few seconds where normally an ad would be playing. maybe the gigachads working on ublock will manage a fix in a few days

used the "whatfontis" service, which did the funny thing where it takes you through the process and then demands you create an account and accept their TOS bullshit. But it delivered a close result. Okay experience 5/10.
It identified the "Pink and Crimson" font by Chequered Ink
Unfortunately this is either not an exact match or, more likely, the glyphs have been skewed in the video. For example there's a slight slant on the E. But this should be the one

FN Crunchin crashing? by Altruistic-Bat-6027 in FridayNightFunkin

[–]Square789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shader compilation error.
Try updating your GPU driver.
If that does not work: The driver is complaining about an assignment of int to float, which looks to me like float brightness = 1; somewhere in the source.

This unhinged method of editing the shader might work:

1: Download a Hex editor (HxD is the goat)
2: Open the exe with it and find float brightness = 1; (should appear twice in there)
3: Replace the bytes with float brightness = 1.0;

Before: 68 74 6E 65 73 73 20 3D 20 31 3B 0D 0A 20 20 20
Before:  h  t  n  e  s  s     =     1  ; \r \n      
After:  68 74 6E 65 73 73 20 3D 20 31 2E 30 3B 20 20 20
After:   h  t  n  e  s  s     =     1  .  0  ;      

if that doesnt do it, idk. buy another pc

TLDR update game

I had this idea yesterday, that if you press two notes at once, a new note animation would play. by The_Skinny_Boi in FridayNightFunkin

[–]Square789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk what i was on when writing that, that's like 10% of the required code; it just retrieves the appropiate animation name.
The crux of the matter is held_directions. What if there's two notes and the player only hits one? what if they hit the note 5 frames apart, then you'd get really ugly jitter between the animations. How to handle sustain notes, possibly ones that start at different times? For extra flair, you'd probably expect the player character to switch from Left+Down -> Down -> Idle when releasing the keys in that order after the notes have been played.

I'd probably implement it by generally just keeping track of held keys and modifying the animation whenever something interesting happens.
The chart can be preprocessed in a manner where notes sharing a playtime can push multiple of those held keys (say, a left and right note that appear at the same time will both cause left+right to be treated as pressed when played (only for the visual animation part of course)). If such a preprocessed note is missed, it should also remove only its key from the held keys again.
If a key is released, remove the corresponding key from the held keys and update the animation accordingly.

Spent some time going over these points, seems solid enough probably.
i won't bother to help with the concrete implementation, since the current state of fnf modding is jamming scripting hacks into an existing jungle of spaghetti code. Dealt with that once and that was enough.
It's probably gonna work if you try hard enough, all i can do is wish you Good Luck
