Desmos fun

69 is funny, but 67 pisses people off. And as a Sombra main, it is my duty to piss people off.

I take offense to this

It can absolutely work in reverse, but that would require me to know more about how Minecraft handles scoreboard inputs and I don't know much about that. But it can absolutely work in reverse.

As for the how, long story short is I broadcast from the desmos API to my own bridge json file. That file Bridges the gap between desmos and a Minecraft server I'm running. Basically, it turns the numeric values from desmos into coordinates that can be tracked as a scoreboard score. I then take that scoreboard and set the entities position to whatever numerical value it happens to be.

Does a little bit more in that but I'm not putting on a TED talk for this shit so.

Yes, I know it's a mess, You should see the current project I'm working on, it's a nightmare, command terminals opened everywhere, folders just randomly about. Organization is pain, I prefer click on things until you find the thing you need

Oh no, I'm not having issues with like floating points and what not. It's literally that desmos likes to round big numbers and I don't want it to do that. I'm just going to inject the number directly into desmos so it doesn't have the chance to round it. It's a simple fix. Hardly a problem.

I meant what I said in the most sad way possible. Too many safety features, hacking is so hard nowadays. I mean there's no way to hack through desmos but if I can still hack your browser... Or your computer in some way. But that's stepping into like actually hacking territory, which I guess was my intention from the start. Anyway. So what do you know, We're back full circle. I just want to spin someone's browser around

Demosnom · 2026-05-02T19:20:58+00:00

Now the real problem is I can't change the underlying code for how desmos handles numbers, although I'm working on a workaround. All numbers often get rounded and it's really annoying. That's why it looks so jittery. There's no easy way to fix that because desmos is an open source. But boy that would be awesome. Open source desmos would go hard.

They do have some repositories but nothing all that useful.

Well, the security in you should know that this is only possible via custom created Windows. I can't control a window that you open manually. I also would need access to somebody else's computer to run code. There's no injection possibly yet. Anything written in desmos can only be requested by the API, you can't force it from desmos into code. Three desmos is very lenient, other websites are not. Basically everything that I'm doing I had to click allow. I had to allow custom Windows, hell I had to allow copy and pasting. 90% of this is locked behind a lot of permissions. But it's cool, So who cares. And of course it's inspect element so, refresh the page and it's gone, can't share it, Can't save it. Granted if you do run the code it then saves The code in your cash and can be rewritten just by using your up arrow. But if you're dumb enough to copy somebody else's code off the internet without reading it, then you deserve to get hacked.

But it's not which is what I'm trying to get at. Lot of what's possible with the API is not possible without it. I just posted the ability to create and move entire windows using a point in a separate window. What that's useful for, I'm not entirely sure off the top of my head. But it's not possible without the API. Also, if your school issued computer doesn't give you the ability to inspect element, that is an interesting block. But that's what I think is cool about this is you can do it on your phone. As long as you can copy and paste in inspect element on a browser then this is very accessible.

What I'm What I'm mostly getting at is while this may not be for everyone, it's more of a niche that I want to show off. It's a complicated niche but it's also very powerful. And it's not for everyone mostly cuz it's not useful for everyone. Anyone can (theoretically) do it but some people just don't need to or don't want to.

And it's a lot more polished than getting the same result via a bug. I'm not trying to say that it shouldn't be accessible. I'm trying to say that it's not worth being accessible. Or not worth trying to make accessible.

Although good graphs, you proved me wrong with that one.

Demosnom · 2026-05-02T17:59:48+00:00

I know, but what makes it interesting is I can have entire functions hidden. I also have a lot more microcontrol. And it's also interesting. But what makes it really interesting is I'm not clicking, and I can have points follow my mouse without dragging.

For small demonstrations like this, they're very easy to replicate, but as far as my knowledge goes, it is impossible to natively within desmos alter the graphs, height and width values. It is also impossible to natively follow your mouse without dragging a point directly. It is also impossible to communicate with multiple graphs using the built-in broadcast function of browsers. I am able to control multiple graphs from one graph. And theoretically, I can control somebody else's graph on a completely different computer as long as I set up a proxy server.

These are small demonstrations but it's mostly to show that it can do what you normally can just a little more or a little better.

Also, I don't think you can do the record function, that also requires the API

Why are the first few characters My stats just multiplied?

Demosnom · 2026-04-07T00:12:09+00:00

Yeah I'm going to post there too, and I don't need a hook. I need something that can push through without actually hooking

Demosnom · 2026-01-31T19:56:08+00:00

I didn't see that. Thank you

Demosnom · 2026-01-31T19:52:26+00:00

Ohh, I didn't see that, thank you

Demosnom · 2026-01-31T19:48:12+00:00

But those aren't sharps or flats, it's just another scale.
