The processor is JUST barely fast enough that it can calculate in real time what color a given pixel must me and change it 06:54 *must be 06:55 so basically you had to write your program to run in X clock cycles, and be in sync with what pixel was being drawn on screen at a given time. 06:55 omg that sounds ultra annoying 06:55 You could also do that on the VIC-20, and C64 to get past some it's limitations 06:56 LarienTelrunya, it's actually a type of software engineering known as a hard realtime program. 06:56 it's annoying enough that a couple old DOS and Windows 3.1 games run faster depending on clock speed, but thankfully the DOSBOX emulator mostly fixes that problem 06:56 * NCommander remembers WIndows 3.1 06:56 Cooperative multitasking FTW 06:57 and I don't even want to mention the fact that those old games will have no sound output when running them on a modern PC without the emulator because those old soundblaster and hercules and w/e sound cards no longer exist :P 06:57 I still play an ancient DOS wargame called Pacific War on DOSBOX 06:57 -!- deadnoob has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 06:57 LarienTelrunya, if it was an AdLib compatible, you can actually buy new cards with the correct chip.

I'd like to do a short survey, would you mind asking a few questions? The first question is: Do you like high heels? 07:22 FIQ, the one I'm currently working on, or the one I'm interviewing for? 07:22 LarienTelrunya, it depends how attractive the foot in the heel is. 07:23 NCommander: the test thing 07:23 FIQ, it's GlobaLeak's (https://globaleaks.org) unit tests 07:23 :D 07:23 NCommander: I mean, what is the project itself 07:23 btw NCommander, I'm not sure if you saw this yet? https://www.reddit.com/r/nethack/comments/7vdmg8/a_survey_about_slashem_extended/ :D 07:23 what are you porting 07:23 I'm currently kicking the codebase kicking and screaming onto python 3. 07:23 sorry for being unclear 07:23 FIQ, a whistleblowing platform :) 07:23 ah 07:23 GlobaLeaks is the name 07:24 LarienTelrunya, see, now I can't fill that out since you just need to look for the most recent entry 07:24 I first read it as "I use the unit test system from X" 07:24 rather than actually answering what my question was 07:24 sorry 07:24 lol 07:25 Yeah, well this got started by a ridicious change of events 07:25 -!- Guest56202 has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 07:25 I was *really* sick two weeks ago, and was volunteering 07:25 I was too sick to get out of bed, but I could work on the laptop.

(coppro's own public repo is no longer available, since gitorious was bought out and shut down.) 07:27 yeah but I'm not keeping track of that, and every once in a couple months someone takes the "dead" survey again so I won't be able to associate the entries with people unless they give it away :D 07:27 I liked my answer to Are there parts of the game you consider offensive? 07:27 Other: "Yes" 07:28 FIQ, well, nastytraps are fine as long as they're disabled when I'm playing ;) 07:28 hahaha, thanks for participating :D 07:28 wait, LarienTelrunya disables features people find annoying while they play? 07:28 that's quite a good customer service 07:29 FIQ, pfft, I'm fairly sure if you can ascend a failed existance, she'll fly to you in real life and provide tea in very sharp but sexy shoes. 07:29 hmm 07:29 too bad I'm not interested in any boots 07:29 I am fine with the ones I wear 07:29 * NCommander is a steel tipped shoe kinda man. 07:30 I'm fairly sure I don't meet SLEX's definition of awesome footware.

But you can also get a 0:x one. Randomness ftw :P 10:25 With scrolls of wishing, you can drip-feed the player wishes as they accomplish stuff. 10:25 Oh, I thought it was nerfed since I think the times you got to it on rpg.net, it was 1:x. 10:25 LarienTelrunya: The only variants that nerf wishing in ways other than making them 1:x is... uh... is there any? 10:25 And some castle variants of slex don't have a wand of wishing at all. 10:25 -!- jonadab has joined #hardfought 10:25 -!- mode/#hardfought [+v jonadab] by ChanServ 10:25 So you can't complain on variants hating the wand of wishing if the only nerf they do is something you outright tihnk is a good idea 10:26 FIQ: as I said, randomness ftw. Always having a 1:x one is annoying, IMHO. 10:26 lol 10:26 4k makes wands of wishing not guranteed in castle 10:26 Actually, you could do this without adding scrolls of wishing, as follows: first, make wands of wishing not randomly generate, and second, getting any wish out of a wand of wishing makes it turn to dust, regardless of charges. 10:26 I sorta have a love/hate relation w/ the wand of wishing. I see it as an important balance feature 10:26 you responded by complaining 10:26 then you say that slex has the very same feature 10:26 LarienTelrunya: What if sometimes there's a 1:x wand, sometimes a scroll of wishing, sometimes magic lamp? 10:26 just... wow 10:26 FIQ: yes, I stole that from fourk 10:27 LarienTelrunya, is it just the WoW or all wands that can be 1/2/1337:x? 10:27 slex makes wands of wishing generate cancelled sometimes, so there's more randomness in the number of wishes you get 10:27 jonadab: What if sometimes there's a 0:x wand, sometimes a 1:x wand, sometimes one or two scrolls of wishing, sometimes a magic lamp, and sometimes nothing at all? <--- slex implementation :D 10:27 FIQ: LarienTelrunya wants predictability and good balance in all the *other* variants so she can reliably win them during junethack. 10:27 aosdict: that is my main issue with LarienTelrunya complaints actually and why I can't take them seriously 10:28 NCommander: all wands, but for wishing it happens particularly often 10:28 she complains on things that her own variant does as well 10:28 Well, if its all wands, it isn't a wand of wishing nerf per say 10:28 That's a wand nerf in general that affects the Wand of Wishing 10:28 -!- Guest40239 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 10:28 LarienTelrunya, yeash, I'm surprised you can't sacrfice some erotic dancer in SLEX and get a wish from the tiny demon that was imprisoned. 10:28 but I specifically made the 1:x (or 2-7:x) thing happen much more often for wishing 10:28 (well I do take UI/QoL complaints from her sometimes, but gameplay changes I mostly just ignore) 10:29 aosdict: fun fact 10:29 Someday, I'll work up the mental fortitude to make NCHack. 10:29 LarienTelrunya complained once about fiqhack having message colors 10:29 Which will likely be a fork of FIQHack (yay for tangled family trees) 10:29 so I added an option to disable them 10:29 she went on to continue complaining about it as if the option didn't exist 10:29 and, for added fun 10:30 she complained about the blue being hard to read 10:30 on fiqhack msglog 10:30 That later one I'll actually agree with, but that's more PuTTY having insane defaults. 10:30 I called her out on dynahack having the exact same message coloring 10:30 she became very defensive 10:30 (and it's not FIQ alone, every variant) 10:30 this amused me 10:31 (she had never done the same complaint about Dyna) 10:32 NCommander: FIQHack has magic chests now 10:32 it's FIQHack's newest feature addition 10:33 implemented them 10:33 yesterday 10:33 Where's the convict role, I want to abuse them into stealing the entire dungeon :) 10:33 what do you mean 10:33 oh, dnh shenanigans? 10:33 That 10:33 you can't pickup magic chests 10:34 Shiny 10:34 monsters will not pickup magic chests 10:34 loot th em 10:34 or eat them 10:35 *them 10:35 Honestly, my only real complaint with FIQHack (that is variant specific) is that in giving monsters a brain, you've made it that things can quickly escalate into insanity 10:35 you can't dig on squares with a magic chest 10:35 you can't teleport them 10:35 or polymorph them 10:35 in general they try its best to pretend that they're a dungeon feature 10:35 I'm not sure why I didn't just make them one 10:35 but w/e 10:36 which pretty much means you have to use magic chests 10:36 FIQ, can sinks polymorph into them? 10:36 NCommander: they *pretend* to be dungeon features 10:36 but they aren't ones 10:36 YASI: shiny monsters. They behave the same as regular monsters of their species, but their color is random. Occur with a 1/8192 chance. 10:36 also, FIQHack doesn't polymorph sinks upon dropping polyrings in them 10:36 that's a variant innovation FIQHack never took 10:36 I thought it worked in stock 10:37 stock 3.6 yes 10:37 [hdf-us] [fh] Petrus (puck) (Pri Hum Mal Neu), 42934 points, T:7943, killed by an invisible quasit, while praying 10:37 aosdict, can we add pokeballs that if they land they have a chance of capturing a monster.

Can't say yes. I can see from 1 to 10 cars from poland and germany in a month 14:47 Almos all of them are russians which live in Poland/Germany 14:47 Kaliningrad was closed military city, this is why they were expelled 14:48 yeah the germans where (arguably rightfully) expelled from the former eastern areas 14:48 bohemia, silesia 14:48 kaliningrad, danzig 14:51 I'm going to visit Germany some day, and when I do, I'm going to visit Kaliningrad and see what kind of food they have there. 14:51 Uuuhhhmm 14:51 Hhmmm 14:51 kaliningrad is not german anymore ^_^" 14:51 PavelB: ever ate döner kebab? it's mainly a turkish food but a german dude invented it :D 14:51 its a german food 14:52 I have not 14:52 currywurst, mettbroetchen 14:52 good stuff 14:52 german meat stuff 14:52 PavelB, do you speak russian? 14:52 Yep 14:53 I visit my grandparents in Moscow most summers 14:54 It's little hard for me to speak in english, so Ill say about Kaliningrad food and architecture in russian, hope no one will be upset about this.

I recommend to you visit region and Curonian Spit 14:59 I still want to 14:59 Nice 14:59 I think all these places are really intresting 14:59 There is some great ruins and nature 15:00 in Kaliningrad I mean 15:00 weren't the german emperors there at some point? 15:00 I've never actually been to Europe outside of Russia and I *really* want to fix that but the rest of my family doesn't really care :( 15:01 do you have your own family already? 15:01 or not old enough to do this stuff alone 15:01 Do I need as Healer buy spellbooks while Im xp lvl 3? 15:01 I'm just a high school student 15:01 ah noted 15:01 puck_: imo you don't have to buy spellbooks at all as healer 15:02 Thx.

Bad decision... 15:48 ugh :( now you have aggravate monster 15:48 <@Winsalot> is there still hope? 15:48 <@Winsalot> can I redeem myself? 15:48 well it's very easy to get aggravate monster but almost impossible to lose it 15:49 it's not a death sentence, but the effect will be noticeable when monsters read scrolls of create monster or similar, because they'll summon more dangerous stuff now 15:49 <@Winsalot> Well, I guess it's fine. In my last ascension I ascuired aggravate monster by choice 😃 15:50 you'll also occasionally be surrounded with out of depth monsters if you have aggravate monster in slex 15:50 <@Winsalot> Thought it would help in rogue quest to wake up nemesis 15:50 <@Winsalot> Sounds like death sentence 😃 15:50 LarienTelrunya: so what, you just whack up against the stalactite again and again and again? 15:51 hmm, I'm wondering... in vanilla nethack 3.6.0, there's a bug where Rodney wakes up if any monster casts aggravate monster. Does the same happen with the master assassin if you get a spellcasting monster on his level? 15:51 aosdict: more or less, yeah; though, we don't know the dimensions of a nethack tile, maybe one stalactite tile actually means a ceiling full of stalactites :D 15:52 [hdf-us] [fh] Bogdan (puck) (Hea Hum Mal Neu), 24794 points, T:4539, killed by a giant rat, while fainted from lack of food 15:53 LarienTelrunya: i guess that should happen 15:53 i think thats happening for every meditating monster 15:54 yeah, that was my suspicion 15:54 -!- raisse has joined #hardfought 15:54 -!- mode/#hardfought [+v raisse] by ChanServ 15:55 -!- PavelB has joined #hardfought 15:57 <@Winsalot> will there be magic chests anywhere? 15:57 -!- hothraxxa has joined #hardfought 15:57 no, but you can use regular chests/boxes as portable containers in slex; they're light enough so you'll usually not be burdened 15:58 -!- mode/#hardfought [+v hothraxxa] by ChanServ 15:58 in fact, you can carry a whole lot of stuff in slex 15:59 i found a ring of carry in xnethack 15:59 seems good 15:59 can that increase my capacity over the cap? 15:59 s/over/above/ 15:59 <@Winsalot> FIQhack has armours with carrying property 15:59 (unfortunately its -2) 15:59 FIQHack also have stronger rings of carrying than xnh 16:00 <@Winsalot> those are super good 16:00 stenno: In xnh it increases carrycap by 5% per enchantment. In fh it increases carrycap by 50 per enchantment. IT can go beyond 1000 16:00 sweet 16:00 thx 16:01 <@Winsalot> Tbh this sokoban level was just evil. 16:01 <@Winsalot> Vary long and single mistake would make it unsolvable 16:01 <@Winsalot> I didn't like that 😭 16:01 Winsalot: SLEX has a full-screen sokoban level with about 150 boulders and holes. :D 16:02 Be glad you didn't draw that ;) 16:02 But yeah, that second one had just barely enough boulders to solve it. One mistake and you need the scrolls of earth. 16:04 btw, I'd definitely up the matter spell skill, that way the fireballs do more damage and also cost less mana 16:04 enhance general combat too, it increases damage with all melee weapons 16:04 <@Winsalot> Oh, I didnt notice that I level upped 😃 16:05 <@Winsalot> Ok, so this fucking level has hidden pits 16:05 <@Winsalot> what the fuck. 16:05 welcome to slex, and also the boulders didn't start out visible either, i.e. you only see those that have ever been in your line of sight :D 16:06 <@rikersan> tha'ts not surprising 16:07 [hdf-us] [nd] hypnotist (Val Dwa Mal Law) killed Medusa, on T:29345 16:07 <@Winsalot> omfg 16:07 <@Winsalot> invisible boulders 16:07 <@Winsalot> what 16:07 Slash'EM? 16:08 there are *actual* invisible boulders, i.e. ones that require see invisible to see; in this case they just didn't start out mapped 16:08 Or are you talking about the weird uim glitch where pushing a boulder only causes you to follow it onto its tile if you are moving one tile at a time? 16:08 That's an NH4 bug. 16:08 but I think this level has more boulders than holes, so you can afford to waste at least one 16:08 jonadab: Winsalot is playing SLEX 16:09 Ah. 16:09 <@rikersan> "disregard ALL, stuff is screwy" 16:09 Non-premapped sokoban. That's evil. 16:09 Super EPI: non-premapped procedurally generated Sokoban levels. 16:10 Winsalot: I think you can afford to waste up to 2 boulders here 16:10 also the THE GEHENNOM FUN PATCH scroll is most probably earth in case you need more boulders 16:10 -!- PavelB has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] 16:11 -!- PavelB has joined #hardfought 16:12 got a pick-axe or wand of striking? if not, you'll probably have to untangle them by squeezing 16:12 <@Winsalot> aare you sure? 16:13 yeah, I'd squeeze on the left one of the 00 and then push the right one 16:13 -!- raisse has quit [Quit: Suddenly, Raisse disappears out of sight.] 16:13 -!- raisse has joined #hardfought 16:13 -!- mode/#hardfought [+v raisse] by ChanServ 16:13 <@Winsalot> can I eat numb trove? 16:14 yes, can sometimes give the numbopathy intrinsic, which displays monsters while you're numbed 16:14 <@Winsalot> Wtf are all those troves anyway?

I'll try to be available here off and on in case there is anything I can do to help you diagnose the problem I'm having in FIQhack (user krm26, toon Ei) 18:51 the save K2 gave me depicted you buying stuff in a shop 18:52 you are Ei, correct? 18:55 Yes, that is right, I think I was just stepping out of a general store 18:55 but when I play, I don't get a crash 18:55 when I play your save I mean 18:56 have you tried to restart the game after the latest updates? 18:56 Weird, I can't load it, returns me to the main menu 18:56 if so, and the game still crashes, I think I need a core dump from K2 18:56 http://home.fiq.se/is_this_right.png 18:56 Yup, just reconfirmed, go in fresh, loading percentage crawl, back to main menu 18:56 That's me 18:57 I thought I was seeing strange behavior in the store just before the crash 18:57 Was trying to ID items (tourist-selling) but the shopkeeper was uninterested 18:57 Not being very familiar with the variant, I didn't know if that was normal behavior in some circumstances 18:57 K2: FIQHack on hardfought is several revisions out of date 18:57 krm: I think I might have found your issue 18:58 ^ 18:58 Excellent! 18:58 Funny how both you and puck came with me about crashed games that I was unable to repro... 18:58 The identical levels game after game are just a bit grueling for me, since I'm very likely to need that bag of holding every game -> remove soko!! 18:58 Oh well, should be good on update 18:59 Thanks so much FIQ! 18:59 I'm just astounded that I'm alive at a moment where there are so many actively-developed variants I actually like 18:59 computer stuff moves fast 18:59 30 years ago internet was a curiousity at universities 18:59 mostly 19:00 I was playing nethack in 1987 at UIUC :-) 19:00 heh 19:00 before I was born :P 19:00 I get that a lot these days 19:00 hah 19:00 I was born 1994 19:00 Ouch 19:00 7 years after you were getting yourself into nethack 19:00 -!- PavelB has quit [Quit: WeeChat 2.0.1] 19:00 Eh, FIQ's only a bit younger than my keyboard 19:01 -!- PavelB has joined #hardfought 19:01 "only a bit younger" 19:01 My wife finally made me get rid of my Lexmarks when we had our kid 19:01 Your keyboard is that old? 19:02 1989, I think, although right now I'm typing on another keyboard because I'm away from home. 19:02 i installed my first computer network in 1970. it used ttys 19:02 so get off my lawn 19:02 I use an IBM Model M as God intended. 19:02 and i'm keeping this ball 19:02 You got me beat hoth 19:02 i was on the design committee for dirt 19:03 The most "legacy" piece of tech I've used is a beta version of the original XBox 19:03 I'm basically a child in comparision 19:03 My first assembler work was on a Cyber in...1982? Maybe? 19:03 mine was ibm 360 assembler on a model 40 19:03 in 1969 19:04 assembler work = writing assembly or assembler? 19:04 hothraxxa's got me beat, I was around in the 70s but I wasn't installing any computer networks 19:04 \writing 19:04 At least mine had a 60 bit word :-) 19:04 Fun fact: The XBox Development Kit had a controller that had to be plugged into both the XBox and a power outlet at the same time. 19:05 a year ago I was writing asm for the purpose of a gameboy romhack 19:05 that's my only "serious" foray into assembly, apart from uni stuff 19:06 My dad is super into all those ancient computer architectures and whatnot so I think I know the history pretty well though 19:06 The change in programming quality-of-life from the late 60s to today is crazy 19:06 was partnernet a thing on the original xbox 19:06 no kidding. we had to punch our own card decks 19:07 My dad is also the kind of guy who complains about the performance overhead of virtual method calls 19:07 I did some work when I was teeny on a console whose screen was a dot-matrix printer...that's as antique as I get 19:07 I'm pretty sure he *would* just write Assembly if not for the fact that he has to work with other people. 19:08 an assembler and a good macro processor is all anyone needs 19:08 talks about stuff as ancient as this always reminds me of the story of mel 19:08 We have a museam near where I live where they have a dot-matrix printer you can use. 19:08 I really the Cyber 6000 console, where cracking 80wpm meant its electron beam couldn't keep up with you and the screen would start fading out 19:08 I think the first compiler I used was the one in Repton Infinity, although I didn't know it was a compiler at the time; dunno because I was also finding Hack 1.0.3 around then 19:08 Aren't dot-matrix-printers still used nowdays? 19:08 PavelB: Crikey. I don't really think of a dot-matrix as a museum piece 19:08 Not for personal use, but for printing receipts 19:09 It's like a "History of computing" kind of place 19:09 The console was a keyboard attached to a printer -- there was no monitor. All output was on the printer 19:09 krm: Yeah, a teletype 19:09 They have a few teletypes too 19:09 tty or twx 19:09 I tried using one but really didn't get any of it 19:10 Hah 19:10 I feel like I should go do something modern now like subvert a democracy on Instatweet or something. Thanks for the help, FIQ, and later everyone :-) 19:10 People still care about microoptimisations today, for good reason! 19:10 ibm 360s used a console based on the selectric typewriter 19:10 And people still write in assembly today for that reason 19:10 with a typeball 19:11 They also have a room where they have like one of those *really* ancient computers that runs on vacuum tubes 19:11 You can see it working and it's really cool 19:11 mcw: my view on general assembly writing today is 19:11 nowdays, compilers are really smart 19:12 unless you are really good at assembly tricks, or happen to deal with a really shitty platform compiler-wise 19:12 FIQ: this is for a 10bit custom core on a GPU that runs 10 instruction instructions 19:12 you ain't beating the compiler 19:12 at most, you might tie 19:12 err, isntruction shaders 19:12 mcw: that falls into the second camp of what I wrote :) 19:12 Yeah 19:12 Actually you can still beat compilers for general GPU shaders too, sometimes. 19:12 But then the clever assembly people send their optimisations to the compiler people who implement them in the compiler. 19:14 But yeah, even those programs are teeny tiny compared to even a small piece of "real" software. 19:14 I've legitimately written a faster condvar implementation for a specific arm arch, but all the threading atomics are done in asm (or using intrinsics) anyway. 19:15 what dragons do you have to eat for those intrinsics? 19:16 i'm familiar with arch lichs, never heard of these arms though 19:17 Soldiers for those intrinsics 19:17 They are an arm-y 19:17 Can't tell if we're talking about nethack or CPUs 19:17 Why not both? :) 19:18 There really *should* be a pun on ARM in Nethack though 19:18 Someone currently making a variant: Please think of one 19:18 At uni I had to implement a 16bit CPU core that was effecively half an ARM 19:18 They called it a STUMP 19:18 :-( 19:18 :] 19:19 Also 19:19 https://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/240/conversation/aim 19:20 I still go to bed hugging my h&p comp arch textbook 19:21 I have Stroustrup's C++ 1st edition next to my bed 19:21 I don't actually read it, I'm just too lazy to move it anywhere else 19:21 Haha :D 19:21 -!- stenno has joined #hardfought 19:21 -!- stenno is now known as Guest98975 19:22 -!- Tariru has quit [Quit: Leaving] 19:22 but now I must search for the land of z, want to get back from work early tomorrow to finish my des validator 19:22 Nn 19:22 Land of z? 19:22 <[Demo]> sleep 19:22 zzzzzzz 19:22 Oh 19:22 dur 19:23 [hdf-us] [dnh] DrakeMarshall (Bin Inc Fem Non), 54 points, T:112, killed by a water moccasin 19:23 oof 19:23 Go team fountain I guess 19:24 land of zleep 19:25 YANI: A dungeon feature that's a dirt wall or something.
