  • Infallible Code

    Jump

  • Lol the amount of bullying this guy is getting lately. I've seen similar spins and bends that looks somewhat legit, making people believe he suck at coding

  • Everything web based

    Jump

  • I used to be like this too. I thought it would be too mainstream to have a website rather than a natively compiled application running on the computer...

    And then my friend in high school started this thing on his laptop.. a website.. it was server side rendered.. pretty satisfying... Then it took off...

    I think the web can be nice with the right mix. I'm personally not too fan of these pages that are just white if you don't turn on JavaScript. It's just a feeling, nothing special. From a business perspective it makes sense, to throw all the rendering to the devices to save cost.

    What app/program do you wish existed and what does it do that you've not found elsewhere?

    Jump

  • A service or a website to find other websites. Search engine nowadays uses sentences, but why can't we use tags and filters?

    Google and duckduckgo may give 4 HUGE websites, but nothing more than that. Why can't I just see all the unique different services all listed up?

  • Some TODO app called Emacs?

    Jump

  • Once you discover org mode.. you're not going back.

    I love infinite nested tasks; subtasks, sub subtasks, subsubsubtasks, subsubsubsubaubtasks.

    See check this. You start by creating 3 main points.. then you need to give more info to these 3 points, and you can either insert tons of text under it.. or create subtasks. Now you figure the subtasks need explanation, again either text or subtasks. Lovely

  • how's your week going, Beehaw

    Jump

  • Mega contrast of social interactions. Now nearly for 2 months I needed a lot of alone time reflecting and collecting myself after a breakup..

    Then this week is suddenly mega full where I'm attending my first career convention, meeting tons of new people at the same time having a blast talking about tech stuff. None of my (IRL) friends are into tech, so it feels nice to talk to someone on the same wavelength there.

    Then also this week, looking for apartments, also meeting new people in that scope too..

    Then ALSO this week I'm getting visited by 2 friends in the weekend..

    Just.. oh my god.. I guess I'm finally finding myself back on track where things should be. But damn the contrast is so hard I can't stop smiling both internally and externally

  • What are your most recently visited Wikipedia pages?

    Jump

  • Point Nemo

  • Europeans, how far do you walk for groceries?

    Jump

  • I might have been lucky, but all the places I've lived at in Norway was always under 10 minute of walking. I've lived in 4 different places across Agder.

  • How do you mateys and folks deal with the sheer amount of music available out there?

    Jump

  • I am fully involved with the music algorithm. I like that song!, clicks radio on it. Oh, this song is nice, clicks radio on that and so on.

    I discover music from whatever service has the best algorithm to find what I enjoy. Sometimes it's from amatures, sometimes it's from unheard of artists. I rarely ever hear a song with over 100,000 plays, and I believe nobody but my mom thinks my music taste is good...

  • Have you ever convinced someone to pay with XMR?

    Jump

  • It's a bit unfortunate. In 2018, I was envisioning a future where people generally would pay using cryptocurrency.. because it is a technology that works by design, decentralized.. how is this not just the set solution?

    At the time i was selling some used stuff on our national popular marketplace, but nobody wanted to pay me with crypto.

    Now lately it just carries this dark atmosphere of being used for bad and illegal services.

    Me and my close friend would send each other crypto when owning up for stuff like paying the rest of the half of the food when he paid for us both. He lost interest, and we eventually went back to normal stuff.

    Though with the hopefully coming traction of decentralized services like fediverse services, maybe we'll also then see a new traction of cryptocurrency being an ok option for payment again.

  • How to combat large amounts of Ai scrapers

    Jump

  • I have a dumb question.. what is preventing the crawlers from just eating the shit and just burn though the energy to get through the computational task?

    Do you ever drink "strategically"?

    Jump

  • Hmmm, may drink strategically to dodge rules like no self brought alcohol on the festival, or a way to feel the effect good enough before needing to run to the bus.

    But to deal with drama? No that I'm taking fully in so I can learn from it if something similar happens again

  • Are you learning another language? How far along are you?

    Jump

  • I have pretty much been studying a language every day for the past 4 years, 3 years with Japanese and now 1 year with German.

  • Proton to add Monero payment support - Petition

    Jump

  • They already had a controversy some time (years?) ago, saying stuff like "Bitcoin is all we need", "everything other than Bitcoin is a shitcoin", "we don't want to associate with the criminal record Monero carries"... something like that.

    What you can do is to use non-kyc exchanges, send XMR in, exchange to Bitcoin, and withdraw directly to Proton. Proton won't be all hurr durr about dirty Bitcoin.

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • There are 2 instances that use anti bot features that I could find. That is https://search.canine.tools/ and https://search.fredix.xyz/

    Personally, the fastest and most reliable in my opinion are https://priv.au/ and https://searx.tiekoetter.com/ I used to use Tiekoetter's instance for nearly a year before I hosted my own. Otherwise I would recommend checking here: https://searx.space/

    With that said, I still didn't answer your question, because I am hosting my own instance, but I would not recommend joining unless you really want to. I'm going to move it to central Europe, it's currently hosted in Romania.

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • Damn, is it actually Eivith? Thanks for all the support help in the Matrix chat

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • Damn, I too went to this same route of Google -> duckduckgo -> Searx. While it is true searx is unreliable at times, if you enable more engines and find an instance that has anti botting features, it should be pretty solid

  • Non-Japanese Native Speakers: How long were you watching anime before you are comfortable with watching your first episode without subtitles?

    Jump

  • My friend is a crazy heavy anime watcher. One time he decided to watch an anime without subtitles, and he understood soo much... Pretty much got it all. Didn't study Japanese, just casually having nearly 300 days (7200 hours) of watch time according to MyAnimeList.

    It's cool and all, but there are MUCH better and faster ways to learn Japanese than spending 2 years non-stop watching anime to reach his kind of level

    What are some "toy programs" you've created?

    Jump

  • I made a website to practice reading my wristwatch: https://aadniz.github.io/niwa-practicer/ (works best on PC, and I'm well aware of many issues)

    Since depth is important to recognizing the odd and even, quickly mapping them to the number, I made it "fake" 3D, tracing each layer in krita.

    There was no deep motivation for this other than refreshing myself a bit of React from University. With my neverending list of project plans, I felt like this one was a good choice for that. Here is the source code: https://github.com/Aadniz/niwa-practicer
