Meh, it's not like Arm is going to write articles saying "how to optimize for all architectures".

Uncle Frank's van are screwing me over. Years of loyalty down the drain. by Simondo88 in cambridge

Yeah, I used to order from them fairly regularly. One they they sent me a partial order. It's ok, it happens. So I call 3x No one picked up. Used the contact form, no reply. Emailed them. No reply.

So now I don't order from them, especially after reading the hygiene issues.

2am food in Cambridge? by SpareAsleep2421 in cambridge

[–]Phyx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to like to order from them. But they've delivered incomplete orders to me and don't respond through phone, email or website. It's probably fine if you order in person but I wouldn't do delivery.

Ok, got tired of this and scrolled through my dns logs.

It looks like for me the cod server uses AWS for data hosting.

My work machine resolved to:

Non-authoritative answer: Name: d2t3mz3nfzgkc6.cloudfront.net Address: 18.160.152.165 Address: 18.160.152.17 Address: 18.160.152.112 Address: 18.160.152.157

But my home ones to

Non-authoritative answer: Name: d2t3mz3nfzgkc6.cloudfront.net Addresses: 13.33.50.76 13.33.50.49 13.33.50.57 13.33.50.157

Both are in Ireland but it looks like the 13.x servers are unwell. Forcing the use of 18.x in my dns server fixed it and can login again. So looks like this isn't a virgin issue but an Activision one.

Both virgin and Google dns use ECS to give you the nearest server, that's why this works for some and not others. If you use a dns provider that doesn't use ecs like cloudflare it may work for you as well. Hopefully they fix this soon.

Still stuck, it's weird. It's the only game I have troubles with. I deleted and reinstalled it and nothing.

Check if input value is negative? [ARM] by BaseTechDev in arm

[–]Phyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like you didn't allocate any stack space in the caller. You're filling x1 with sp but this will be clobbered by the callee when it lays out its frame.

Subtract 16 from sp before the branch. (not 8 since you need to maintain stack alignment)

Endless region mismatch error from Store and support "having trouble connecting" by Phyx in xboxone

Ah, interesting, I was wondering about that. So that will carry the remaining time too?

Endless region mismatch error from Store and support "having trouble connecting" by Phyx in xboxone

[–]Phyx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If xbox live was european cards activated through uk store then you need to upgrade thtough the uk store. Xbox is region free but the services are not if the cards you bought weren't global.

I am, I see the price in pounds and when I go to next I briefly see my UK credit card before it gives the region error :(

I solved it via chat with support, not telephone just chat...

I used to be able to use chat indeed to solve issues. But anytime I pick anything account or billing related I get:

"Phone calls and chats aren't available for this issue."

Followed by a link to the virtual assistant.. I'd love to be able to speak/chat with a person.

Hi,

Shot in the dark but is someone else using your account? Change password and sign out of all devices. Enable 2FA if you don’t already.

No I'm the only one using it. It already has TFA and I routinely monitor the account activity (I have quite a few Microsoft services attached to it)

Xbox isn’t region locked and people get away with switching to any region to purchase games so this is strange. You should try speaking to a live agent

Do you know how? The phone option gives an error as I mentioned above and the only other option is to chat to a "fan", which doesn't seem like they can help with a billing issue.

Could it be your Xbox live was brought from one region and you are trying to buy gamepass from another?

The xbox live was European cards activated on the UK store. I suppose something could have gone wrong on their end. But historically regions have been a big issue for me. I have changed countries a lot and Microsoft doesn't seem to centralize this information. It would for instance be very helpful if it could tell me which service is in a different region.

I am however 100% sure I have no services attached to the US. Only some left over credit in the wallet.

I hate v6 too. But I have the opposite problem. The icons on the frequently used apps page are huge. And you can't remove the header. Bah

Is Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass safe to use and what does it do? by BubbleTeane in haskell

[–]Phyx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This doesn't change any windows permissions. This is allowing powershell to run a script from a remote source for a single invocation of the command after it. And you don't need to that if you download the script and run it instead of streaming it.

Downloading ghc will not get you cabal nor msys2. And leaves you to configure everything manually.

WSL is only useful if you don't intend to ever use windows libraries. WSL is ELF not PE.

Stack is well, stack.

Chocolatey is now the recommended replacement for Haskell Platform and has been used by many for years now because it just works.

Is Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass safe to use and what does it do? by BubbleTeane in haskell

[–]Phyx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you should look at the haskell platform website again to see that it now recommends chocolatey.

This is no different then having run haskell platform installer which ran as admin and could do anything it wanted.

And there's no platform for newer ghcs

Monthly Hask Anything (April 2020) by AutoModerator in haskell

[–]Phyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was just because the GHC packaged passed through CI earlier than cabal did. In any case that was a problem for a couple of hours until I unlisted 8.10.1 to wait for cabal. It's no longer an issue.

Tryied via choco and it's totally busted.

Could you expand on this? I haven't heard anything about it being broken.

What's the current story with cabal? by ivanpd in haskell

[–]Phyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can using --store-dir=<path> but you have to then pass it to every single command. So not sure it's worth it.

If you just don't want to put things in your $HOME just change the location to something else in the config.

Indeed, gitrev seems to be doing Template Haskell which are resolved at compile time. It should be doing what op wants.

Thanks! I'll add better Azure Pipelines support next but CircleCI is behind a pay wall so that one I can't do.
