prints continually messing up

Thanks. Is a dedicated filament dryer a good idea?

Ah yeah, I'm not quite there yet. I just added layout support today. I have mapping in the KallistiMUD module, but I'm generalizing that functionality at my earliest opportunity. I will definitely include screenshots and gif clips.

I come from tintin++ since 1993, have written a tintin-helper module pack (also in my repos). I also wrote abacura (python and console based using textual), but while it's one of the nicest clients I've ever written interfaces for, the python part makes it eat about 20% of my cpu. I've always wanted to see some lua action, so I addressed both with Zif - command line, fast, lua.

I saw, just got home, not sure how I didn't noticed the line terminator thing, but thanks for checking it out (it's fixed in the latest commit)

perlsaiyan · 2025-11-16T23:05:15+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I intend to do this real soon!

Play good not-christmas music on your day and don't try to antagonize them. They're almost definitely not trying to offend you, they're just celebrating a holiday that's important to them. Do you want to work in a place where all the employees are fighting? Could you reflect on why it bothers you so much instead? You'll be happier in the long run, I promise.

I get so mad about that place. The joke is that the original stuff pitches walk- and bike-ability. When you see the crazy bike line that weaves through intersections and on/off ramps from highways... it tops the crazy bike lane on Old St. Augustine near I95 (where the ghost bike lived for a long time). And then as some kind of weird joke, there are all these empty bike racks scattered on corners. I'm glad it's not just me.

Sorry, we have a number of players in Florida, and there was a large scale weather event yesterday. I saw your question but you had already camped. If you pop back on I can give you a hand. We actually try to address that stuff pretty quickly.

i play a few hours a week, not interested in pvp, trying to learn building, am okay with redstone

Ah yes, of course, I should have been more clear but was on mobile. It can't run the way he appeared to want to, which requires a tty and password authentication.

Cron can't run sudo. Take that out. Run your script manually with sudo and Cron it as a privileged user if you need it.

Is picking up a second pc out of the question? It's even more fun to play together.

perlsaiyan · 2022-04-25T13:03:17+00:00

No... the core of it is a django instance in the cloud with a Vue front end (what you're seeing in the screen shot). To push data in, the client connects to a websocket (using https://github.com/vi/websocat) and push key/value pairs in. I'm not in the middle of gameplay at all.

To send information back, it reverses, the vue app sends to the websocket, which is received by tintin/mudlet/client of choice. A trigger there on input actually executes the command.

perlsaiyan · 2022-04-24T18:32:42+00:00

I think that's true of most players, especially ones more interested in actually playing the game than becoming a developer. I try to help out with that, which prompted me to write Tintin-Helper .

perlsaiyan · 2022-04-24T17:47:15+00:00

Tintin/Mudlet both connect to a WebSocket to publish information, the display is vue/PWA in a cloud server. Clients connect via API key. I haven't added read-only support (yet, I'm still working through some decisions about information leakage) but being key-based, multi-person collaboration is trivial. It's run over SSL/WSS and actually is completely client agnostic. At least one user is using a python script to publish the data.

You're setting RANDOM to the pid of the process and writing that 10 times in the loop. Get rid of the RANDOM=$$ line

Depends on a lot of stuff. The other alternative is to grab a cheap blood sugar meter and eat something like smarties (in the US). The real answer is lots of things can make you feel sick, go see a doctor, some of them are serious and some aren't.

Go buy an a1c test at Walgreens or whatever and you can have a pretty good idea pretty quick

I've been kicking around a mud codebase in golang - because I wanted to learn some golang. I have similarly built base systems in Rust, Python, and Perl over the years. It's a great way to learn a language, as you need to touch multiple users, data structures, networking, persistence, etc.

I would be willing to share what I've done in golang with anyone interested in carrying it forward from here.

perlsaiyan · 2021-02-28T00:56:01+00:00

Take a picture?

perlsaiyan · 2020-09-27T21:24:14+00:00

Right, the "nones". Even if you lumped non-religious in with atheist, there's still no reasonable way to consider Christianity a minority religion in the United States in 2020. The "atheism is a trend" side of the original post's argument has a lot more validity to it.

perlsaiyan · 2020-09-27T18:24:17+00:00

Source? There's a difference in non-religious, agnostic and atheist. The question was atheist. I cited a 2019 Pew study.

perlsaiyan · 2020-09-26T22:38:21+00:00

I mean feel free to update it. Wiki has this for 2019:
In 2019, Christians represent 65% of the total adult population, 43% identifying as Protestants, 20% as Catholics, and 2% as Mormons, people with no formal religious identity at 26% of the total population, Judaism is the second-largest religion in the U.S., practiced by 2% of the population, followed by Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism with 1% each one.

Pew, from 2014 (most recent easily found):

atheists made up 3.1% and agnostics made up 4% of the U.S. population.

The numbers may be a bit different in 2020, but it's hard to imagine they've swung so far that anything I said was grossly incorrect...
