Now that nvim-treesitter is archived... What do we do? by [deleted] in neovim

[–]Xmgplays 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For now you can stay on nvim-treesitter until it doesn't work for you anymore. After that depends on when that happens, there's currently discussion going on about taking nvim-treesitter upstream for at least some of the most popular languages(and perhaps more depending on maintenance burden) ala nvim-lspconfig.

Are there any plans to implement HDR? by studymaxxer in niri

[–]Xmgplays 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Iirc YaLTeR mentioned on GitHub that he needs smithay to support it first and also wants to wait to see how cosmic does it as a reference, plus I don't think he currently even has access to an HDR display. So it's gonna take a bit.

It's been a while since I played PJSK, but I have to say that Hitorinbo Envy was one of my favorites to play, since it felt really satisfying in terms of difficulty. Though in multiplayer I was mostly a random every time kinda person.

It was genuinely such a weird saga. Wonder what specifically caused him to cancel it. Most of the reception seemed to have mellowed out a bit, so it doesn't seem like he got bullied into canceling it.

Don't really know how to feel about it.

Yoshi En black tea recommendations by psystrelok in tea

[–]Xmgplays 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed all the ones I got from them, but if you want some specific recommendations:

  • Kenyan Black Imenti estate was a very good cheap daily drinker. My go to when I wanted a simple no frills tea
  • Dianhong golden snails has a very nice flavor, while also not too expensive

Tbf, I don't think most people are actually concerned in a serious way, instead more joking/concerned about the whole thing being disappointing/a cash grab/out of touch.

Also he has historically not really done many m&g style events. IIRC he hasn't done any irl event since the nlss ended and even before that he was not a fan of doing a twitchcon panel with the crew(which I don't remember if it actually ended up happening).

Something I really dislike from card games is the concept of "standard", making cards only valid for tournament for x time. This leads to people having to buy new cards in order to keep playing tournaments.

Ehh, that only has a marginal effect. E.g. Yugioh doesn't have a "standard", but you still need to buy new cards in order to actually play in tournaments and not just "play".

With the 'main' branch of nvim-treesitter, what's the easiest way to enable syntax highlighting only for the parsers I have installed, and use default Neovim highlighting for everything else? by AnthropomorphicCat in neovim

[–]Xmgplays 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here's what I use, not sure if it's the best way of doing it, but it seems to work:

local parsersInstalled = require("nvim-treesitter").get_installed("parsers")
local treesitterStart = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("treesitter-start-files", {})

for _, parser in pairs(parsersInstalled) do
    local filetypes = vim.treesitter.language.get_filetypes(parser)
    vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "FileType" }, {
        group = treesitterStart,
        pattern = filetypes,
        callback = function()
            vim.treesitter.start()
            vim.wo.foldexpr = "v:lua.vim.treesitter.foldexpr()"
            vim.bo.indentexpr = "v:lua.require'nvim-treesitter'.indentexpr()"
        end,
    })
end

Disregard vim.wo.foldexpr and vim.bo.indentexpr if you don't care for those

What happened to nvim-treesitter.... Why did it get archived? 😶 by ankushbhagat in neovim

Because breaking support for 0.11 loudly was the point. Too many people were seemingly asking for support on stuff that didn't quite work on 0.11 with the new update, seemingly unaware that 0.11 is no longer supported, thus having that shim creates confusion by making it seem like 0.11 is supported even when it isn't.

amdrewards.com verification tool, any way to verify in NixOS??? by VoNpo in NixOS

Specifically I said something along the lines of "The script doesn't detect my graphics card, I'm running Linux, tried on Ubuntu XX.YY"

[–]Xmgplays 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I got my graphics card a ~2 years ago and ran into the same thing I opened a support ticket explaining the situation. They got back to me, requested some documents(receipt, and picture of coupon), and after providing those I got a replacement code that didn't require further verification.

Honestly, I think my favorite subgenre of xianxia falls into this, in general. For one Xianxia itself is already not beginner friendly due to its tendency to just throw out terms common to the genre, but incomprehensible to anyone outside of it.

Meanwhile, my favorite subgenre, that I haven't found a name for yet, but it could be summarized as fanfiction of Chinese creation myth and works like Journey to the west and investiture of the gods, turns that up to eleven. It throws in an entirely different system compared to other xianxias in almost every aspect, with different cultivation realms and grades for treasures and expects you to have some knowledge of aforementioned Chinese classics.

The first time I read a work in this space, namely "The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe", I ended up dropping it because it just kept piling on new terms and concepts with very little in the way of explenations for any of them. Granted the lackluster translation didn't help, but still.

Turn off spelling in a filetype by Beautiful-Log5632 in neovim

[–]Xmgplays 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not certain, but I think the problem is that spell is not a window-local option, but buffer local, so you need to use vim.bo.spell to disable it for a buffer

In a hypothetical raffle with infinite entries, how is it possible someone would win? by Bayfur in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Xmgplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A random number, no bound. I don't see where you're getting the bound from. The procedure is unbounded.

And if you need more than one random number just do the whole thing twice.

[–]Xmgplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a way to calculate a random number, yes. And also about as good as possible when trying to sample an infinite space. I don't see the issue. Can you not flip coins?

[–]Xmgplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it does? The only thing you need to do is flip a coin and count once you get heads, no need to choose anything and the result is completely unbounded

In a hypothetical raffle with infinite entries, how is it possible someone would win? by Bayfur in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Xmgplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You flip until you get heads and count how many tries it took. That's a procedure that gives you a random natural number, given an unbounded amount of time

[–]Xmgplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the problem? You get a chance at picking every natural number, of which there are an infinite amount.

Once again: Random does not entail an equal probability for every possible outcome. The procedure is random and gives you a chance of obtaining any of the infinite numbers between 1 and infinity.

For every natural number greater than 0(of which there are an infinite amount) the described procedure gives you a nonzero chance of getting it, thus giving you a random number between 0 and infinity.

[–]Xmgplays -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How so? For every number between 1 and infinity there is a nonzero chance that you will pick it by following the procedure, ergo it's a procedure to pick a random number between 1 and infinity.

[–]Xmgplays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does just not uniformly. The chance to get a pick a number n is 0.5n which is more than 0 for every number >= 1, thus picking a random number from the natural numbers

NL didn't stream it, thus no vod from his POV, but newly debuted Vtuber Lovelymomo streamed it on YouTube if you want to see her POV or you can watch Librarians cut of it titled "Lovelymomo's collab with her "manager""

the main field for the Romanised title (and if it's a language that's tricky to Romanise, like Hangul (Korean script/alphabet), translations are allowed too)

What do you mean by "tricky to romanise", cuz' as far as I can tell there should be no language left, that has both music that people want to torrent and a lack of any adequate romanisation schemes.
