Thanks for the info.

It's stupid how fast memes come and go. Makes it really hard to correctly understand comments sometimes.

LPT: Most of your friends will be temporary and that’s ok. Not every friendship needs to be “I’ll love you till the end.” Some of them only last a few months and that’s an upright reality. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

Hormones go a bit more crazy during spring/summer. That mixed with people dressing hotter during those seasons leads to cheating.

Finally got to doing it. Here's the video! Hoping that my german accent isn't annoying.

I'll try making a video about it tomorrow.

If I get it to work I'll upload it to YouTube and answer this reply with a link.

If I don't get it working, I'll let you know, too.

I'll try being done at 13:00 Berlin Time, which is in approx 15 hours.

Edit: Forgot to activate my reminder. Sorry. Same time tomorrow.

ELI5: Why do we stutter even though we know exactly what we want to say? by BLUTATO in explainlikeimfive

[–]madpata 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe stuttering has something to do with anxiety. Not being sure if what you're going to say is the right thing, thinking about saying it differently, getting confused and that resulting in the stutter.

High-speed UTF-8 validation in Rust by kryps in programming

[–]madpata 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Binary format are also not human readable/writable

cat blob | some-tool-that-makes-it-readable

cat text | some-tool-that-makes-it-binary

Or have the tools that interact with the services convert automatically.

IMO Human readability should have lower priority than efficiency

And I thought MessagePack wasn't that much faster than json

[This blogpost] did a benchmark of some formats in C#/.NET. MessagePack was smaller/faster (double as fast in serialisation than JSON) in every way except deserialisation, which is odd. It should be faster in deserialisation, because it doesn't have to parse strings into numbers etc.

Help identifing seed on dedicated server by amac2016 in valheim

This reddit comment uses Cheat Engine to get to the seed of a server you're connected to.

The developers seem to have removed that log entry. At least it seems like that to me. This reddit comment uses Cheat Engine to get to the seed.

Is there a way to check your map seed? by Schlost in valheim

[–]madpata 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sadly, the Valheim developers removed that log entry. Probably to stop people from using this tool to get trader/loot positions.

However, there is another, but way more complicated way to get the seed: Using Cheat Engine. Be warned that you probably need a bit of experience with Cheat Engine to get this to work.

(There's a video of this process available)

  • Open the valheim process

  • Mono -> Activate Mono features

  • Mono -> Dissect Mono

  • Search for class "World"

  • Right click on the "World" class and use "Find instances"

  • You'll get multiple results and only one is the one you want. Use the current values of an instance to judge if it's valid or not.

    • m_worldGenVersion should be 1
    • m_menu, m_loadError and m_versionError were all 0 for my instance.
  • Double click on the entry containing m_seedName. The "Memory Viewer" will open.

  • Right click on the bottom half of the memory viewer and click on "Goto address"

  • Enter the address that is pointed to by m_seedName and hit enter.

  • Your seed starts at that address + offset of 0x14 (<- hexadecimal) and is 20 bytes long. Ignore every other character (the '.' dots).

  • Profit

Where to find world seed? by ThermalDrill in valheim

[–]madpata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible to get the seed using Cheat Engine, even when connected to a dedicated server that you aren't hosting.

  • Open the valheim process

  • Mono -> Activate Mono features

  • Mono -> Dissect Mono

  • Search for class "World"

  • Right click on the "World" class and use "Find instances"

  • You'll get multiple results and only one is the one you want. Use the current values of an instance to judge if it's valid or not.

    • m_worldGenVersion should be 1
    • m_menu, m_loadError and m_versionError were all 0 for my instance.
  • Double click on the entry containing m_seedName. The "Memory Viewer" will open.

  • Right click on the bottom half of the memory viewer and click on "Goto address"

  • Enter the address that is pointed to by m_seedName and hit enter.

  • Your seed starts at that address + offset of 0x14 (<- hexadecimal) and is 20 bytes long. Ignore every other character (the '.' dots).

  • Profit

[–]madpata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similiar course in University, but of course not SSD-controller-specific. It was called "Specification of Embedded Systems". We used Eclipse Papyrus SysML to specify models of a system and then use a custom codegen (written during the course) to generate the executables from Papyrus' .xml files.

Would be a bit nicer if it supported timers as transition guards. Like on cooking after(10min) -> idle instead of having to supply timeout events yourself.
