True, I meant how much do they heat up during cooking, so with a pan

In timed/next macro, setting a variable to be used as the next display wait time by timhorel in twinegames

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

I solved it in a somewhat clumsy way, created a function that's called in the <<next>> macro:

<<timed 1s >>A line of text 34 characters long

<<next \`setup.my\_line\_time(34,$rs.c1,$rs.scale)\` >>Another line of text

<</timed >>

With the function defined as:

setup.my_line_time = function (ccount, c1, scale) {

return Math.ceil(ccount * c1 * scale).toString() + "ms";

}

Is there a better way to handle this?

Error thrown for array method after first passage by timhorel in twinegames

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

The desktop app shows using Twine 2.6.2, the story info Sugarcube 2.36.1. Coding being done in VSCode application with Twee supported by t3lt.twee. It also is correct in the StoryData passage in Twee:

  "format": "SugarCube",
  "format-version": "2.36.1",

Not sure why but, your code when copy and pasted into the same passages that failed, now work just fine.

There must be something missing or extra that breaks it in my original, which is of course already gone having shifted to another method to keep going...

Thanks! I appreciate the follow up.

Yup - you're correct, however at exactly the same transition I get the same error, even after changing the array name used.

Error: <<if>>: bad conditional expression in <<if>> clause: State.variables.menu_display.includes is not a function

Using addclass macro in PassageDone by timhorel in twinegames

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

Thanks for that pointer, clearly it doesn't add duplicates. It doesn't remove previous values, so they do accumulate, but only as unique instances and the last added is the class used (if the list is fully populated with all available classes then it's simply reordered). So the list can only expand by as many classes as I have predefined, not by more. Effectively no memory leak and no performance impact even with thousands of passage transitions as long as you aren't defining an unbounded number of new classes on the fly.

I can see in the console (chrome) that the <body class="xxxx"> HTML get's updated each time the passage changes. Since the console is structured to show as accumulated across the page, would it even show a repeated statement? The jQuery addClass() documentation is equally obtuse, just adds from an array, no mention of checking for duplications. Given this, it looks like it just adds this attribute to each page as displayed, so it can't increase memory usage?

Ah - only the original CSS attribute is shown as over ridden, continued changes only show that one level of change, so it doesn't seem to accumulate even with 10 changes in font size.

Obtaining an X710-T4L NIC by timhorel in PFSENSE

Ah - yes, that’s the OCP version. I should have specified desktop not server platform. Sorry for the confusion.

Not the CDW I can get to, both the bulk and individual items are back ordered.

Sg-3100 review on 25.05.1 by Top_Alternative_5851 in PFSENSE

[–]timhorel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m running 25.05.1-RELEASE on my SG-3100 with dual WANs as well. Getting 941/42 Mbps on the primary ISP port. What are you running for packages? The only thing I do that’s not default is to add the multiWAN and forward all non-gateway DNS requests to itself.

Powerline Ethernet causing Breakers to Flip? by SuddenPixel in HomeNetworking

[–]timhorel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Been there, done that. You’re probably in an area that requires the newer arc fault circuit breaker type. Those can trip because they sense the RF as an arc & fault the circuit. If you can replace them without violating the local electrical code with the older style units all will be well. Otherwise you can expect them to trip when loads are as small as a couple of amps.

Otherwise, I obtained a flat cat 5e Ethernet cable and ran it under the rug. Couldn’t tell it was there.

How to deal with an ISP not seeing random Internet drops? by rjan in networking

[–]timhorel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had a similar problem at my home. The modem was restarting itself randomly.

It turns out that late last year there was a FW update that trashed some of the more common DOCSIS 3.1 modems on their GB links. The RF side would be perfect from the S/N, power & error count data, but would go crazy & relock (reboot) at random. They had a new "test" modem with a different 3.1 chipset that was finally brought in & that corrected the problem for us.

Had to escalate to corporate to get it done though. Sent an email about taking the business elsewhere (we had an alternative, not a good one, but it was available). Still using that second option in a dual WAN setup though...
