      Forgot to mention, buy a lens cover and always put it on the lenses when you're not using the headset. Helps prevent scratches, but more importantly, if you accidentally leave the headset out and it's facing a window, it will prevent the displays from being burned by the sun. Indoor lights aren't powerful enough to burn the displays, but the sun absolutely is.

      I'm super disoriented now too.

      I was wondering now how I can make a more immersive AR space, because currently it just throws you into a wide area with some walls, but I was hoping that Meta would use AI (for all their hype around it) for this potentially useful situation of interpretting space and placing objects around it... building a room. Sadly not, I guess there's a manual way to do it somehow

      The first-party solution for this is the Elite Strap with Battery (there's a cheaper one, without a battery, so watch out). Personally, I would recommend just getting a 10K mAh USB C PD battery bank and either velcro the battery to the headstrap to provide a counterweight, or put it in your pocket and stream the USB C cable down your back. I wouldn't recommend tethering yourself to a physical outlet to stay charging. You can wear out the USB C port, and some people have reportedly had the USB C port melt from an internal short forming due to the port loosening.

      I remember those being called MMO mice. It can be very handy for such games, but generally uncomfortable after a while. The one I had (can't remember name, sidewinder or something?) had an issue getting hot, so it seemed like there's always some sort of compromise with having all those buttons there.
      I wish there was a middleground of maybe just having 2-3 extra buttons, but it seems rare for mice to have more than 2 buttons on the side.

      Kissu has the best moderation tools, probably similar to 4chan, but maybe we lack a bit of niceness(and professional quality + modernized UI).

      And I am not allowed to ban like I want because it will cause too much internal conflict.
      I get no reward. I used to get a reward which made me care, but it can't compete with the financial benefit and academic interest my current work provides.

      And would I even if I got payed? Probably not. The site hates me because I speak my mind.

      It's probably best to look at a bunch of existing ones and take what you like from each one. I'm not sure how any of this stuff works, though. Moderation usually isn't a software issue.

      Also, if you're talking about deanonmyzation during moderation, then you just look at what mlpol's system did and you hash all the IPs so you can't actually see who they are. Otherwise, you can't really moderate without a moderator hierarchy and a government. So you're not even doing software dev anymore, you're just becoming a manager

      Well, I suppose you could do thread level hashes using salts based on the thread number so that would work as well. But to what end are you even doing this? If the community doesn't trust the moderation then the problem is fundamental to the site's management

      I'm interested in seeing how much of that you can automate, in the aspect of dealing with the almost bot-like tier of low quality posters

      Kissu can stop posting from people who don't have posts on the site. That's the easiest way to do this.
      Attaching notes to IPs is already done in vichan. Improvement is to add more to the cookie tracking mechanisms. But that might be against EU regulations.

      Accounts are really a philosophical question about what it means to post on an imageboard.

      >2794
      Mixing an AI based system with a verification system(hidden posts until verification if flagged by AI). Something I've wanted to do, but I don't think it's as important to running an imageboard as just moderating effectively.

      You won't even hit the post numbers where something like that is important until later.
      Unless you're hoping other imageboards implement your software... but many have tried that and ended up coming up with something worse than vichan.

      Also some of the other more fine details of your comment on 2793 are already possible on vichan through the filter system and I've modified the site to do various captcha trigger mechanisms.

      Sure, there's more to put into it. But you have to have the motivation, and based on how you're talking more philosphicaly with me than actual code modifications to vichan or your own engine, I think you are the exact same as me right now... does not really care about imageboards that much

      I've also considered something like thread mods or enough reports from high quality accounts/IPs automatically triggering a moderation action that can be reverted by an actual mod later, or maybe in the case of long-running generals being able to have actual thread/general limited mods

      >>2798
      >accounts
      I'd certainly prefer something like an automatically generated account tracked by a cookie that can be recovered by the user if you decided to set a username/password combination
      The main point of friction would be convincing users to "register" when the IB crowd loves the illusion of user-facing anonymity extending to the backend and I'm still not sure how much to allow the user to track their own posts without allowing others to do so
      It would essentially end up like a forum with forced anon if you kept going
      >EU laws
      Can't you just write in the ToS somewhere that all posters are tracked to ensure efficient moderation?
      >Unless you're hoping other imageboards implement your software
      I would prefer this to be closed source, mainly because I've noticed that anything good necessarily is
      I'm considering starting an imageboard in a couple of years but it would certainly be more about the imageboard being required to test the software rather than the software being required to manage the imageboard
      I've noticed some issues after years of using imageboards and as a developer I want to see if software can solve those issues

      >>2799
      >I think you are the exact same as me right now... does not really care about imageboards that much

      In my experience trying to automate moderation works well with generic spambots that are repeatedly spamming large numbers of sites, usually with the same links over and over again, but doesn't work so well for dealing with pest users. It becomes a game for them to figure out what triggers the moderation and get around it.

      Exactly, it's a very big point of friction and I've noticed it myself when using websites
      Ideally a user would be able to post without creating an account at all, the "account" would be one created by the system automatically and tracked by the normal poster cookie
      Only if they decide they want to track their posts over multiple threads like an integrated and enhanced 4chanX/XT, or get lower posting limits or captcha free posting on multiple devices from different IPs would they feel like making an account, or if they want to persistently moderate a thread/be a tripfag or something

      >>2802
      I'm still not set on it being closed source or not, mainly thinking about it because it would make implementing certain features without bots bypassing them much easier and would ensure some degree of lock-in and total control over what happens with my work
      Security by obscurity is not ideal but it still works
      There is no way for the client to know what goes on in the server since I'm not planning on using PHP, and if I decide to bundle the frontend by using a templating engine instead of a separate REST API that will basically make it a black box in terms of what it does, can do, will be able to do
      If it actually develops any unique features it will basically ensure that at least someone will post there if they can't get the feature set anywhere else
      >which community
      I think a technical board would be the simplest to set up at the start since I would also have some interest to post there, maybe something with flags related to foreign cultures because those tend to be very buzzword-centric and would be a good test
      Anime boards I think are too common these days, every altchan has 7 of them
      If I make it open source then it will be much simpler I agree

      >>2803
      This is in the pre-planning stage still, I'm reading up on other scripts what they could do, what were the limitations, what parts made them unique over the rest. If I don't run a site I'll just open source it and spam it everywhere until someone picks it up.

      >>2804
      I would consider most low quality posters no more sapient than spambots. You could train an LLM to predict their posts with nearly 100% accuracy. Even something as simple as a buzzword detector would work because eventually the new posters would have no idea what the spammers are talking about.

      People don't come to imageboards for unique features, they come because they want to talk to each other. Getting people to use your imageboard, especially the people you'd want using your imageboard, is by far the biggest challenge.

      >I would consider most low quality posters no more sapient than spambots.
      Don't underestimate the intelligence of your shitposters. A pissed-off smart person may decide to flood your board with retarded posts out of spite, and moderation in any form is guaranteed to piss someone off.

      >buzzword detector
      A retarded monkey could get around that and will find great joy in doing so.

      >eventually the new posters would have no idea what the spammers are talking about.
      The kind of posters we're talking about are often near-incomprehensible in the first place. And don't forget that on an imageboard you can write in the image and use the images as avatars.

      That said, I wish you success in making automated moderation work even if I doubt it's going to happen.

      True, but I think that's only part of the statement. I'm only speaking for my midwitted self, but unique features could help keep users you attracted coming back. Especially if those features are conducive to discussion and finding discussion over other similar chans: "What makes your anime altchan full of dweebs and teens different from every other anime altchan full of dweebs and teens?"
      I think it's helpful if the site feels good to use because it's the first thing you interact with, and it gets you a surface level feel before you start dissecting board culture and know if you want to assimilate with it or not. That is to say, I like how Kissu functions on the user end.

      >Don't underestimate the intelligence of your shitposters.
      I know this full well. Once a sufficiently motivated spastic has a bone to pick with your corner of the web you're going to struggle to get rid of him. They'll do anything in their capability to tear down whatever semblance of 'home' or community you've got going, knowing full well there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

      So I have two old youtube accounts, one from the mid 00s and another from some time in the 10s. Well, I don't remember the password to either since I never used either of them for very long.
      Google wants a phone number for me to recover them, so I passed. So I decided to make a new account and google wants a phone number.
      Is there any tech solution to bypassing this, like there's temporary emails? I don't want to give google my phone number.

      Golang has some REALLY weird behaviors with slices.


      x := []int{1,2,3}
      xSt := x[:0]
      xEd := x[0+1:]
      xSt = append(xSt, 4)
      xSt = append(xSt , xEd...)
      fmt.Println(x)

      this is such weird behavior... i know that a slice is a reference to the object in memory, but why isn't the append inserting new blocks of memory and instead overwriting the old in another memory reference? That's not what an append is supposed to do

      into

      It compiles fine on Linux and then when I went to compile under MSYS2 on windows it was doing this garbage. I had to get a friend to help out (reading assembly) just to discover my compiler was being cursed. I don't understand.

      Rust's compile times are just so untenable with the Tauri version2 release.

      It's getting to the point where my consideration is to not even use it directly to write Rust code and do things using their event system or WASM if need be.
      Making an edit takes like 30 seconds to get a response back from Rust-Analyzer now. I just can't do this with a language which is very strict about propper syntax.

      Tauri's mobile stuff is pretty nice. You can't escape kotlin if you want to do things that interesting, but there is a plugin to override all the android buttons using javascript and it's not hard to set up. Can hook into android studio somehow too.
      Being able to write webviews in Javascript+HTML+Tauri is super handy.

      Please help I'm retarded. I'm trying to install a new local music AI thing for the heck of it but I'm very confused. I think I've done this environment thing before, but I'm running into issues.
      I did the stuff here: https://github.com/ace-step/ACE-Step?tab=readme-ov-file#-installation and I think I installed it all correctly and I'm now at the step where I need to install the "requirements.txt" stuff, but that's a file that's supposed to be installed locally right? How do I point this anaconda thing to it? Or do I install from the folder I made with git clone? If so, I did that but I can't run this thing at all.
      Or am I reading things incorrectly and steps 3-5 were for the venv thing? But either way I can't actually get this thing to run...
      ARGH WHY IS THIS STUFF SO ANNOYING?!

      I never explained this originally but its code from part of the software renderer in a game I'm hardcode modding. It decides if it should clip out columns from drawing. For whatever reason when compiling for Windows this somehow gets mangled and it instead always runs it when the console variable is on which breaks the water effects and causes the start lines on the first map to draw black boxes under them. Occurs for Windows builds when compiling with MSYS2 and when I cross compile on my Linux Machine, native Linux however is completely fine and doesn't seem to have this issue. I've been trying to figure out why it does this to no avail.

      The lines of code that has this issue on Windows starts right around line 1447 in r_segs.cpp: https://codeberg.org/NepDisk/blankart/src/branch/blankart-dev/src/r_segs.cpp#L1447

      I am able to get a 3090 Ti for relatively cheap and I was thinking now would be a good time to upgrade the rest of my PC as well, since most of the hardware is from around 2012 or so.
      I'm wondering if there is anything to keep in mind regarding "bottlenecks". I have seen that word thrown around a lot these past couple years, but whenever I try to do research on CPU-GPU bottlenecks, people say the calculators are BS and that it doesn't really matter anyway. So, could I just go all out on a really good CPU to be able to use it for as long as possible, or is there any reason to get something specific to pair with the 3090 Ti?

      It's impossible to remove bottlenecks as one part will generally be better than the others, but most of the time a "bottleneck" explains an extreme situation. If you have a GPU from 2022 and a CPU from 2012 then the CPU is certainly the bottleneck. CPU and GPU worked in tandem more in the past as these days GPUs are basically computers unto themselves.
      You need decent RAM to pair with a decent CPU as they're paired together, so that could be the source of a major bottleneck if you buy crappy budget RAM to pair with an expensive CPU. I guess moterboards can be a bottleneck, but people tend to go overboard and get ridiculous ones they don't need that support expensive parts that most people won't buy. So technically you could have a really strong motherboard and fill it with non-enthusiast parts and that could be a bottleneck, but not really. It's more that you bought a motherboard with stuff you didn't need.

      Since Nintendo is so keen on using SD cards for physical media and seems to be optimizing the size of their games anyway, wouldn't it theoretically be possible to allow the Switch 2's firmware to write and add potential DLC to a game's initial physical release, allowing the physical edition to stay up to date at no additional cost? I might be wrong on this, but I think to have heard that Switch 2 cards are typically around 64 GB, with most first party titles not exceeding 40 - 50 GBs in size, meaning there would still be a good amount of space left that could be used for an idea like this and I've never heard of a Nintendo game that is bigger than 64 GB even with all DLC included. I think this would also highlight their obsession with chip-based game storage, disc-based system would require an integrated burner to realize this.

      Sets it is. I am going to make one based on red-black trees (as I hear that's what the C++ STL uses for sets) since I can already easily convert my hashmap to a hashset if I wanted.

      I just made a partial set implementation based on a regular old binary-tree. I am enjoying learning more about templates - My current tree is backed by a vector and I am using sentinel values to mark empty nodes (ex. INT_MIN for int or "\0\0" for strings) and a templated trait to define each sentinel value per type in a generic way - that way I don't have to use any extra memory. I considered using a vector of std::optional but that takes at least another byte, potentially up to 4, same as making a custom wrapper struct. Unfortunately once I move on to the red-black tree I will need to store another bit somewhere for the color, so maybe a custom wrapper and some memory overhead is inevitable. Or I can make a scapegoat tree instead?

      Thinking about dumping a lot of money into a new PC build. But hardly anything I see interests me. I really wanted a dual socket motherboard to house two AMD threadrippers or whatever their ridiculous top of the line stuff is now. But I found out they no longer offer dual socket motherboards at all. I'd also really like to buy one of those PCI cards with a high-end CPU+RAM on it but those aren't really around anymore either.

      My plan was to dedicate the second CPU+RAM or the PCI card to background tasks and use CPU1 for the OS+usual stuff. I know it makes more sense to build two computers and network them. But I've really wanted a dual socket motherboard since I was a kid.

      GPUs looking way overpriced too and none of them have a girl I like printed on them.

      Why two CPUs? What's the benefit? It sounds cool, though, but what could it do that one singular powerful one couldn't?

      I dunno what his plan is but it's something done in servers for reasons.

      It's all too complicated for me. It has something to do with how servers often run 'multi OS on one machine' at a time through essentially virtual machines, but I'm not sure what's actually done on the motherboards and OS that make it better than one PC

      Each CPU has its own RAM. So you can do stuff like placing a thread doing something intensive (say, encoding video/audio) on CPU2 while doing all your usual stuff on CPU1. This way they don't fight over processing time/RAM/threads. Really I just want it because I never got a dual-socket system I wanted in the 90s/early 2000s back before dual-core CPUs were a thing.

      Another thing I was hoping to do was use hardware passthru for VMs. Run host OS on CPU1, give VM OS to CPU2 along with its own dedicated GPU. I wanted to try that with the PCI cards that come with CPU+RAM on them. But it wouldn't be as good as having a second slot+RAM on the motherboard.

      Another thing is you'd get more PCI lanes. All of my systems are pretty heavy on PCI cards. The only I'm using right now doesn't have any free slots left because I've got so much crap in there for various things. It doesn't have NVME storage either. Next build will of course. Which is already taking away PCI lanes. I need as many as I can get. I need them for all the crap that doesn't come with a motherboard now along with SATA storage devices, sound cards and other misc. stuff.

      I wouldn't buy this exact motherboard. But I wanted something like this: https://www.gigabyte.com/Enterprise/Server-Motherboard/MZ73-LM1-rev-1x

      What's making this not viable is a combination of things. First, no one really makes eATX motherboards anymore. Well other than a handful of companies that barely produce them. Without those it's hard to get a dual-socket motherboard with as many PCIe slots as a consumer board (or hopefully, more). Second, since there is a lack of eATX motherboards on the market there is an extreme lack of good cases for them. So you're stuck building your own from scratch. Third, both AMD and Intel stopped offering dual-socket options in their non-really high end CPUs a long time ago. So you're stuck buying very overpriced (for clock rate) CPUs at 4x+ times the money. Fourth, if you go this route you're looking at buying ECC RAM (so-called "server RAM") and it's much more expensive than regular RAM although the price comes with some good benefits.

      So basically, take your budget for a high end regular PC build and plan on spending 4x-8x the money for something comparable. But it'd be really really fun to run stuff on.

      Most people wait until this stuff hits the used market and buy it then. But by then it's usually 4-5 years out of date. Since people don't dump their server stuff that often because it's so expensive. Takes years to recoup the costs on those depending on what you're doing on them. Used to be cheaper but now people snag them up quick for crypto mining and things of that nature.

      Also there is some latency if you attempt to move something from CPU1 to CPU2 (or their RAM). So the applications where you can take advantage of the extra horsepower are limited. But I just happen to do a lot of that kind of stuff.

      So people do make them. What's the point of making a thesis you know is wrong? Quick google search give me many eATX results among b650, b850 and x870 lines. And that's just AMD, I didn't even look at intel motherboards.

      Is there some sort of specific go-to ISO or software for the most debloated version of Windows 11? I have to go Windows either way for software-related reasons and was thinking I might as well try 11 if you can turn off all the unnecessary background crap. There seem to be a ton of different debloat projects and I'm kind of lost.

      There is no way to turn off all the crap on 11. If you want recent Windows OS to run software use the Windows 10 LTSC .isos. No idea which one is still the best as I installed one on a PC 3 or 4 years ago now and it's chugging along fine. Don't fall for the "support is ending soon" crap LTSC gets updates for many years to come.

      If you'd bothered to read what I wrote instead of instantly jumping on google in an attempt to prove me wrong you'd know that 1) No one makes them with an acceptable number of PCI slots anymore and 2) The ones being made aren't very good even discounting that.

      Thank you! I actually wouldn't even mind losing out on just MS support, it's mostly that I'm worried about future versions of editing software locking you out of anything that isn't 11. I do try to keep up with new releases and Adobe seems to not be the biggest fan of supporting unsupported OSes, even if it's just the regular consumer edition that stops receiving updates.

      LTSC isn't like home editions of Window's OSs. They're basically required to continue supporting it for 10+ years due to contracts signed with the shops that run and buy it. It's like the old server editions in that respect. I'm not a fan of Windows at all and really didn't want to stop using 7 on that machine. But I had to wipe all the disks in it and wanted to game without dealing with some problems with wine/proton with older Windows software. So I ended up installing 10 LTSC using guides from /g/ and it has worked fine. It gets real updates once a month on patch Tuesday and daily updates for the virus scanner. Works pretty well and I haven't had to deal with the usual issues with modern Windows. Note you'll need some third party software to get your start button+taskbar functioning like Windows up til 7. I can't remember which one I used now but it also works well. I think it's called "classic start menu" or something like that.

      I seriously doubt Adobe will drop support for 10 any time soon. The issue with 11 is a lot of built in spyware. For example, it takes multiple pictures of your desktop/screen every minute and sends them back to MS servers. It also has some AI crap built in to snoop upon your meta data/use habits I think. Along with several other things. Impossible to 'debloat' and remove that stuff because it's tied so deeply into the OS now. But I don't claim to be an expert on it because I'm never going to use it.

      You should also consider maybe using Linux or FreeBSD and running that stuff either in wine or through VMs. I would have gone that route on that machine I have running 10 LTSC. But it has the last processor built by Intel with vd-t disabled on the i7s. So GPU passthru isn't possible on it despite there being no reason why aside from the artificial limitation they imposed on i7 CPUs back then that supported overclocking.

      Honestly, modern Linux isn't that much better. But with some work and using a distro like Gentoo with many custom USE flags applied you can get around most of the issues with modern Linux. FreeBSD has its own issues and requires a lot of custom mucking around. But it has Linux bin emulation in the kernel and I haven't run across anything that doesn't work yet. Including wine. It's just that no one ships a pre-built version of *BSD with those features setup to be easy to use out of the box.

      I'm working on a FreeBSD fork with running legacy and modern Windows stuff out of the box. But it's slow going and many of the changes I've made will require some time to port over. In addition to 'debloating' the FreeBSD base system I need to finish porting over a lot of OpenBSD stuff and drivers to the kernel to support things like doas with persist working correctly. Along with drivers for things like wifi cards so you don't have to reply on the linux emulation and stuff like Network manager. I expect to have it finished sometime in the next couple of years. I also need to build another more modern PC to do testing on more recent GPUs to ensure they work. Along with getting Xenocara/Xlibre going with a more sane default config that doesn't require the end user to do so much manual work to get a working desktop. Also need to finish my Arcan DE.

      But yeah. For now, Windows 10 LTSC is probably your best bet. That or using Windows 7 which also still gets long term patches I think but you'll need some extras to get software that attempts to artificially restrict the software from running on 7 to drive end users to update.

      Basically, both Windows and PC hardware hasn't really changed in the last 15 years or so. So all this fear mongering about how you need new hardware+OS for some software is BS attempting to drive hardware sales. They're doing the same thing with PC hardware now that they've been doing with phones for the last 10 years. Making things obsolete through software tricks to get people to buy new hardware they don't really need. All the stuff like TPM being better for security is also BS. It's just an attempt to lock you out of being able to run pirated software/OSS on your hardware. In other words, they're attempting to lock down PC hardware like they've locked down phone hardware and other devices. It probably won't be long before you're forced to 'root' new off the shelf PCs before you're able to install a different OS on them. That's already the case with the Apple stuff that's been coming out over the last few years like their ARM laptops. They love ARM because it allows them to do that. It isn't possible on x86_64 (at least not yet) because its always been an open standard.

      It's possible but you'll need to edit something in the registry that I've forgotten then run setup.exe off the install medium to "upgrade". It won't remove any of the stuff you already have like the Windows Store and other so-called bloat.

      I've never done it but I've heard of people doing it and it working out fine. If you don't have anything important on the system drive it's probably better to just do an entire re-install though. Provided you trust the install medium you have.

      Created a oneliner i3wm bind that "watches" an active terminal window and beeps me when the running command finishes:
      bindsym $mod+Shift+W exec "waitpid $(pgrep -P $(pgrep -P $(xprop -id `xdotool getwindowfocus` _NET_WM_PID | grep -oE '[[:digit:]]*$'))); echo -e '\a'"
      Now I can run some time consuming command on a terminal and continue on with my work without fearing I forget about it because I'll get beeped when it finishes!

      How the hell there isn't any software that allows the user to make unorthodox diagrams, with easy layer management tab (think like in Photoshop, Paint.net, etc) AND tables that are easy to format?
      I'm basically stuck between LibreOffice Draw (has proper tables) that, for no reason in particular, decided to copy the disastrously abhorrent layer management from m*Crosoft's Visio - pic related. You need to click within the opened subwindows to work with layers - that's for each layer) and draw(dot)io (has a handy layout management window) that treats its table inserts as ARRANGEMENT OF GEOMETRIC OBJECTS (so arrow keys won't transport you across text fields, and you can edit the table only as the geometric arrangement it is).
      Even the paid SaaS and cloud service resources don't have the most basic combination I need. Am I really in 2025? Jesus Christ.

      Had never tried to do server stuff solely with IPv6, but I couldn't get it to work. I had to give up and use IPv4.

      SSH kept telling me the network didn't work. But various utilities said ports were open. Maybe SSHD didn't handle the connection correction and that was the problem, but I can't say my impressions of the format are any better and probably worse than before
