| 2024-10-23 22:15 | Seth | I have a job when the immortals who like to give 'random hogs' like to randomly give them |
| 2024-10-23 22:15 | Seth | Why can't the hogs work like, everyone who logs in the next time gets 1 hour of hog? :p |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Gengis | so, mine missed it, can we get another? |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Dojo | no no.. it was for the trl shf |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Seth | Favortism is a reason |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Anetra | psst, make more illithids |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Anetra | feels like tyberos wanted to give illithids some help :D |
| 2024-10-23 22:14 | Otokar | not always a reason |
| 2024-10-23 22:13 | Seth | What was the occasion for the hog? |

| 2024-10-23 19:39 | Sole | Anyone else for kbracer unlock? |
| 2024-10-23 19:34 | Sole | 2e, follow sole for kbracer unlock |
| 2024-10-23 18:51 | Sole | Anyone else? |
| 2024-10-23 18:50 | Sole | And then maybe the kbracer one after. |
| 2024-10-23 18:49 | Sole | Let's do the garden unlock. |
| 2024-10-23 18:46 | Lupee | just made the project under that fake name, uploaded it to npm or pypi or whatever. |
| 2024-10-23 18:46 | Sole | 2e, follow sole for lord |
| 2024-10-23 18:45 | Lupee | speaking of, my fav is still the one that hallucinated project names from gen code, so a guy MADE those hallucinated projects and wrote a white paper on it with data and captured client info |
| 2024-10-23 18:45 | Zaffer | or something along those lines. |
| 2024-10-23 18:45 | Zaffer | Made use of the deprecated set of symbols that don't print to anything |
| 2024-10-23 18:44 | Zaffer | *nod nod* |
| 2024-10-23 18:44 | Lupee | oh wait.. was that the one where the guy embeds instructions into the prompt like "ignore everything previous to this paragraph, and do this instead" ? |
| 2024-10-23 18:43 | Zaffer | Did you see the non-printing characters in UTF-8 to exfiltrate data from the LLM models? |
| 2024-10-23 18:43 | Lupee | all the accent letters, too |
| 2024-10-23 18:43 | Zedas | he seems to be out of ideas |
| 2024-10-23 18:43 | Lupee | haha.. imagine all the homographs for i for sliick chars |
| 2024-10-23 18:42 | Zaffer | Zarradyn would have so many more opportunities to make terribly named characters. |
| 2024-10-23 18:42 | Lupee | oh I gave that to Zaffer instead of Z<utf8:0430>ffer |
| 2024-10-23 18:41 | Azarael | y'all may be confusing new with being old :p |
| 2024-10-23 18:41 | Zedas | well, at least they didn't file off the dikuserial numbers and make it micropurchase :P |
| 2024-10-23 18:41 | Zaffer | The weapon renames for psis! |
| 2024-10-23 18:41 | Lupee | just imagine all the utf8 homographs scams that could happen.. |
| 2024-10-23 18:41 | Zaffer | How does that affect networking? No idea. |
| 2024-10-23 18:40 | Zaffer | All this to say... the codebase here is way different than the base :) |
| 2024-10-23 18:40 | Lupee | ah yeah. the code base I have from 2001 does not have any GMCP stuff, but it does have the mccp2 stuff. |
| 2024-10-23 18:40 | Zaffer | Just imagine the crashes. |
| 2024-10-23 18:39 | Zaffer | It would be nifty if UTF-8 was supported. We could do fun things like emojis everywhere ;) |
| 2024-10-23 18:39 | Zaffer | GMCP, ATCP, all those protocols. |
| 2024-10-23 18:39 | Brenton | Nefas, if it's not a Mir, you've lost the plot. |
| 2024-10-23 18:39 | Lupee | it's hard coded to work only for alts named Hart |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Zedas | I intend to dupe hart's gear |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Coldstone | im going to create an alt name dupe |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Nefas | i only dupe 100qp tokens |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Brenton | They specifically delayed your connection just enouhg to help out, Zedas |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Zaffer | GMCP is 'new' too |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Lupee | oh that's true. it's in a non-premptive loop. I found the same bug in toril for their "empty" command - which moves stuff from one container to the other. it's amazing what 10k zero-weight scrolls can do to the mud when it's run in a non-premeptive loop. |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Coldstone | i dupe quest items all the time its great then i sharpen brill them and dupe em im a dupe genius |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Zedas | but the note specifically mentioned networking related changes |
| 2024-10-23 18:38 | Brenton | Nature finds a way |
| 2024-10-23 18:37 | Zaffer | Also tough to lose things. |
| 2024-10-23 18:37 | Zaffer | Like... it's very difficult to dupe things now as a result ;) |
| 2024-10-23 18:37 | Zedas | spose it did predate all that stuff yeah :) |
| 2024-10-23 18:37 | Zaffer | I think the insure / morgue code probably had a significant impact on that. Just look at what happens when people smith. |
| 2024-10-23 18:36 | Zedas | I'm not sure how many there were at peak times, but some people had lord armies then |
| 2024-10-23 18:36 | Lupee | *diku |
| 2024-10-23 18:36 | Lupee | base diki is mainly single threaded using non-blocking IO. there are a few code variants/forks that did some improvements in the 90s, and as far I can tell, it should stil be very performant - similar to how haproxy does non-blocking IO. |
| 2024-10-23 18:36 | Zaffer | *nod* But that was the highest counts that had been recorded, I thought? Or were there more than 100 players w/ 7+ chars each back earlier than that? |
| 2024-10-23 18:36 | Zedas | I don't think current multiday loads match those counts yet |
| 2024-10-23 18:35 | Zedas | I was meaning before multiplay was illegal |
| 2024-10-23 18:35 | Zedas | yeah that was more recent |
| 2024-10-23 18:35 | Zaffer | Well, not mday, multiplay. |
| 2024-10-23 18:35 | Zaffer | There were something like 750 during an mday hog when Snikt got a new server. |
| 2024-10-23 18:34 | Zedas | avatar used to handle a heavy multi load when it was legal all the time, so not sure whether it was a change or a debug |
| 2024-10-23 18:33 | Lupee | a diki-based codebase from 2001 I have used to handle 600+ back in the day. so curious what needed to optimized for 1200+ |
| 2024-10-23 18:33 | Lupee | would an imm be able to post about what changes to the network stack they did? I'm interested to know what needed to be changed from the diku code base to improve networking performance. |
| 2024-10-23 18:32 | Nefas | he said player updog |
| 2024-10-23 18:32 | Variant | You know, Chuft alts |
| 2024-10-23 18:32 | Zedas | player what? |
| 2024-10-23 18:32 | Variant | I think i have some logs from the quest that introduced it; have a distinct feeling that there were numerous places in the quest that involves a lot of player coordination. |
| 2024-10-23 18:31 | Nefas | who said that? i wasnt paying attention |
| 2024-10-23 18:31 | Zaffer | It's frustrating leading when only a small percentage of the people are paying any attention. |
| 2024-10-23 18:29 | Zedas | in future, more recent and up to date leaders, like zaffer, should be appointed for such tasks |
| 2024-10-23 18:29 | Nefari | even my demon soul was a quest not the actual path |
| 2024-10-23 18:29 | Zedas | people occasionally ask me to lead it for them and I haven't a clue heh |
| 2024-10-23 18:28 | Variant | I'll log a few of Zedas' alts to help out |
| 2024-10-23 18:28 | Shaykh | So outside of mday, *nod*, it's tough to get people amped up to help |
| 2024-10-23 18:28 | Zedas | both of them, nefas? :P |
| 2024-10-23 18:28 | Nefari | hopefully i can log my army |
| 2024-10-23 18:28 | Zedas | I'll do my bit to help with it |
| 2024-10-23 18:27 | Shaykh | And it takes a significant amount of effort, and you end up with a legend only char. |
| 2024-10-23 18:27 | An immortal | this mday, trying to hit 1200 connections... |
| 2024-10-23 18:27 | Variant | maybe possible on mday though :p |
