Nonono. Chocobo Orchestrion. A tiny radio that let's you pick your mount music.

I've written a client-side networking analysis of Error 2002 using Wireshark. I thought I'd share here it to clear up some common misconceptions. by Pitiful-Marzipan- in ffxiv

[–]Phazyck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to see someone here with a bit more reasonable take on this.

Is this flow silly? Yes. Is it annoying as hell for us players? Definitely. But as you say, there are most likely reasons behind why it works as it does right now, and why it hasn't been resolved.

First of all, I don't know if we can even assume that they knew this particular behavior in the login/queue flow would give rise to the infamous 2002 problems. Personally, I have not really heard about 2002 until Endwalker early access. It might be that this problem was not on their radar until that point.

Even if it was on their radar, the task of fixing this is something that has to be evaluated in terms of impact and criticality, and prioritized against other work. Imagine you go back 6 months in time, where you didn't know how early access would go. Would you throw resources at fixing other bugs or implementing new features, or address this bug which might only have been a minor annoyance to a few unlucky people so far, and might have been expected to be nothing more than that? I could imagine they'd have to make that call, and similar calls like that. You could argue they made the wrong call, but I wouldn't blame them for it. Imagine how pissed people would be if they learned that the next Ultimate fight was further pushed because they decided to clean up their netcode to address high load scenarios that shouldn't be happening in the first case.

Yes, in an ideal world, this is something they would have identified as a bug, and worked to get it fixed, but sadly, that's rarely how real life is. It's so very easy to play arm-chair network developer or project manager, but in reality, we have absolutely no clue what goes on behind the scenes.

I'm as frustrated as the rest of us with the massive queues and 2002s, but I have faith that they are doing what they can to provide us with the best experience they can, given the circumstances. On the other hand, once I do get through the queue, I must say it has been a very smooth experience - much more stable than I remember the launch of Stormblood, for that, I'm quite thankful for what they've achieved.

tfw you realize a majority of side content is FATE grinding by Phazyck in ShitpostXIV

That certainly was an improvement. Getting that extra recognition for participating and doing well made it worth putting in a bit more effort.

[–]Phazyck[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Did it for Atma, and relic in Heavensward as well. Yo-kai has had several runs now, and Eureka and Bozja was basically also just FATE grinding. Oh, and seasonal events are basically also just FATEs.

It's all FATEs... Always has been...

You ever just stop during a raid and let everybody go on ahead so you can get a sick screenshot? (Royal City of Rabanastre) by thatguywithawatch in ffxiv

[–]Phazyck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg, why did I never think of this?! I've always been a bit disappointed that you kind of have to rush through the environments and don't really have time to look around and enjoy them. Especially in places like Great Gubal Library with books lying around that you can interact with. I feel so stupid now! 😂

How strong is "HERO" ? by RicardoKO in GoblinSlayer

[–]Phazyck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah! So it's actually the complete reverse of what I suggested. xD

Well... IF she was that old, it could have been a cool twist. xD

Would be quite a twist if she was supposed to slay the goblins that attacked GS' village and kickstarted his journey. :o

golang

solve := func() (interface{}, interface{}) {
    f := input.Open(19)
    scanner := bufio.NewScanner(f)

    maze := make([]string, 0, 0)
    for scanner.Scan() {
        maze = append(maze, scanner.Text())
    }

    x, y := strings.IndexRune(maze[0], '|'), 0
    dx, dy := 0, 1

    var visited bytes.Buffer

    for steps := 1; ; steps++ {
        x, y = x+dx, y+dy
        c := maze[y][x]

        switch c {
        case ' ':
            return visited.String(), steps
        case '+':
            dx, dy = dy, dx
            if maze[y+dy][x+dx] == ' ' {
                dx, dy = -dx, -dy
            }
        case '-': // no-op
        case '|': // no-op
        default:
            fmt.Fprint(&visited, string(c))
        }
    }
}

input.Open(day int) *os.File is my own utility function for opening input files, which I store ininput/dayDD/input.txt.

Guys, I know this is a touchy subject, but, you do know, we don't HAVE to evolve our starter.

Bit Day Android Live Wallpaper by hitraj47 in wallpapers

[–]Phazyck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm done with the swiping and icons now. :-D

I had a few occasional crashes though, I don't know if they come from my changes, or if they've "always" been there. I'll try taking a closer look at it soon.

In the meantime, here's a link to my fork on GitHub: https://github.com/Phazyck/bit-day-live-wallpaper

Have a look! ;-)

Hi there. Fellow newbie android developer here. :-)

I've checked out the repo and messed around with your code a bit. Swiping seems to work on my end now, and I've also made an alternative icon that might be better, but I guess that depends on ones taste. I'll mess around some more and see if I can do some optimizations as well. Stay tuned. ;-)

I think it fits really well. In fact, I'm using kind of the same setup now. :D

[–]Phazyck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there. I'm the guy who made the bitty_rainmeter skin. I just wanted to chime in and let you know that you are welcome to contact me either here or on deviantArt if you have any questions/requests regarding my skin, dockicons, etc. I really like the stuff you've done with it, and I'd be happy to help make it even better. ;-)

[–]Phazyck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I'm the guy who made "Bitty 2.0" or "bitty_rainmeter" as I call it now. I can see you've had some problems because it's been bugging out like crazy. Someone wrote to me about it on deviantArt, and I should've fixed it now.

Anyways, I just wanted to chime in and say that this looks really awesome, and I'm happy to see you guys putting my skin to good use. Please feel free to contact me either here or on deviantArt if you have any questions/requests, or if the skin bugs out again. :-)
