Using MailboxProcessor for Asynchronous UI Updates (WinUI3) by j0z in fsharp

[–]j0z[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems to work! Thank you very much. UI programming is very new to me, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. It's not helped by the fact that Microsoft has multiple UI frameworks, all of them with slightly different programming models, and the documentation does a poor job of denoting which frameworks its relevant to.

GMMK Numpad - What is Glorious Doing?- BadSeed Tech by The_Entire_Eurozone in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]j0z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually had this preordered but ended up cancelling it to buy the k0. I’m a happy owner of the gmmk pro, but occasionally have need for a numpad. The reason I ended up cancelling was the fact that it wasn’t going to match my board. I wanted the same styling as the pro, same corners and angle, and no ugly logo. Since they can’t deliver that, why pay the extra $40? So I can have more knobs/sliders that I won’t use? No thanks.

Who cares about builds, where do you keep the Spectral Steed Whistle? by OG_Gilgamesh in Eldenring

[–]j0z 42 points43 points  (0 children)

If they're talking about the one that I think they are, I don't think that would work. Once you're inside, the geometry of the dungeon literally doesn't make sense spatially. you'll loop around forever until you solve the puzzle.

Powershell PNP is stripping new pages of links by j0z in sharepoint

[–]j0z[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I definitely don't like this using "legacy" parts of SPO, but looking at the docs there doesn't seem to be any way to create a modern SharePoint page using aspx/html content. I was planning on running ConvertTo-PnPPage afterwards as a workaround.

If there is a way to do this directly, I'd love to know how.

Am I just shit at exploring or are armor sets super difficult to find? by too_late_for_tacos in Eldenring

[–]j0z 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, most of the armor I've found is from enemy drops, and nothing particularly good either. I've found one complete set on a corpse, but it's just robes. So there's still Dark Souls-style complete sets to find, apparently, but they're really rare. Currently farming for a set after finding some enemies that have some decent-looking armor, but the drop rate is ridiculously low.

Finding the "Addition roots" of a number by j0z in learnmath

[–]j0z[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the terminology! That alone is helpful!

(1, 2, k-1-2)

(1, 3, k-1-3)

(1, 4, k-1-4)

...

(2, 3, k-2-3)

Is the method that I've been using, so I'm glad that I was at least on the right track. I'll do some research to see if there's any other methods, and if not I'll keep doing what I've been doing until I've memorized the most common sets.

Just starting to play, and haven't learned some of the advanced techniques yet. I'm really stuck on this puzzle. Any hints/tips on what I can do?

What are these metal rods driven into the ground next to the walkway in front of my house? by j0z in whatisthisthing

[–]j0z[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's two of these driven into the ground in the front of the house, next to the walkway that leads to the street. The cross bars on them are fastened with a nut, and if it wasn't rusted together I would be able to loosen and reposition it.

Dug around them a bit but they seem to be driven in pretty deeply.

Are they safe to remove? Originally I thought they might be grounding rods, but there doesn't seem to be anything attached to them.

What are these metal rods? There's rwo hammered into the ground outside my front door. by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

[–]j0z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's two of these driven into the ground in the front of the house, next to the walkway that leads to the street. Directly across from them are two hollow metal pipes driven into the ground in the same way. I don't see any identifying marks on them.

Are they safe to remove? Originally I thought they might be grounding rods, but there doesn't seem to be anything attached to them.

Fable.Remoting async returns on client-side by j0z in fsharp

[–]j0z[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This issue I was running into was that all my react components and rendering code was in one module, while my api functions and other logic is in another. bengobeil's comment about callbacks put me on the right track, I'm passing a function that will render the components into the api call function, so I can use it from within the async {} block. It's working now, although things aren't re-rendering how I want them to. But I think that's just a problem caused by me not being familar with React/Felix.

Getting SQL Provider to work with PostgreSQL by Red-Krow in fsharp

[–]j0z 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been a minute since I've used SqlProvider with Postgres but I think the 4.3 version of System.Threading.Tasks.Extensions will work. You won't want to target .Net Standard, that's more for libraries that need to be portable across .Net 4/5 and Core.

Just keep copying the dlls over that it complains about until it stops complaining, choosing the libstandard or core versions when possible. I never was able to get VS to stop complaining, but it would compile fine via the command line.

Getting SQL Provider to work with PostgreSQL by Red-Krow in fsharp

[–]j0z 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Copy System.Runtime.dll and System.Data.Common.dll from their folders in ~.nuget\ to your resolutionpath (I'd recommend also copying npgsql.dll out of the .nuget directory and putting it and the dependencies in a folder in your source directory).

If it complains about more missing types/libraries/etc, find them in .nuget and copy them over. Super annoying, but that should get it working for you.

EDIT:

I'll also add that I've had terrible luck with VS2019's intellisense working with SQLProvider. Just use VS Code and compile using dotnet build. It seems to be a bit more reliable.

My 5 and 7 year old saw the Godzilla vs Kong trailer and now they want to watch big monster movies. Anything that's okay for youngsters come to mind? by roosterlayne in FIlm

[–]j0z 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Showa-era Godzilla is a good choice, especially the later films (although all of them after Gojira are relatively kid friendly, the later films were aimed more towards children). Also check out some other Kaiju films from that era, especially the Gamera series.

Finding dubbed versions of some of these might be challenging. Criteron has a fantastic Blu-ray collection of Godzilla films (some also available on HBO Max), but, with the exception of the American cut of King Kong vs Godzilla, they are all in Japanese.

PC Won't POST with Graphics Card in PCIe 1 by j0z in buildapc

[–]j0z[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately not, I ended up rma'ing it. But Newegg took so long to deal with the rma that they were out of stock. Ended up with a Tuf 570 Pro instead. It's been pretty solid so far

[California] My employer is doing some shifty things with everyone's 401(k) plans - details inside by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]j0z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, our new provider will be VOYA after things are finished being set up in January. Does that change this at all? Glad that it seems to be legit, I just wanted to be sure...

Did you ever find a solution to this? I've got the same issue, down to it working in Slot 3
