| 2025-01-24 20:39 | Sole | There's something to be said for learning computers on those old machines. |
| 2025-01-24 20:38 | Rairila | you can play doom on a flipper zero |
| 2025-01-24 20:38 | Dumbledore | i boot it up and play doom or wolfenstien every now and then |
| 2025-01-24 20:38 | Rairila | winsock.dll ftw |
| 2025-01-24 20:37 | Rairila | nice. that's a classic. |
| 2025-01-24 20:37 | Dumbledore | i still have my old 385 with windows 3.1 lol |
| 2025-01-24 20:37 | Dumbledore | i'll just move to columbia and grow my own :p |
| 2025-01-24 20:37 | Rairila | I had a student place a paper on the monitor and click a mouse randomly - and they were confused why the paper did not scan into the computer. this was MSDOS + Windows 3.11 days. Like sir, this is not the 21st century. |
| 2025-01-24 20:35 | Solipsis | magnets, how do they work |
| 2025-01-24 20:34 | Alrin | wow |
| 2025-01-24 20:34 | Rairila | ah memories. that time I was a student worker in the print lab, and had to tell another student that the reason their semester work was ruined was b/c they had hung their disk to their fridge with a magnet as a reminder not to forget it |
| 2025-01-24 20:31 | Rairila | I befriended the neckbeard admin and he gave me a whopping 10 megs of user space. |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Rairila | hah. I had an openvms account when I started uni |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Solipsis | (if you know where that is calculated i'm all ears, still hunting through source code) |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Sole | Like one that ran on OpenVMS or whatever back in the day. |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Solipsis | it's not the main focus of my investigation just noticed i wasn't getting the info when looking at system processing time |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Sole | And why it would make sense for an interactive terminal application over telnet. |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Rairila | *guess you could |
| 2025-01-24 20:30 | Rairila | I couldd you could time "how long from when I send a command, do I get the telnet ga sequence? calc that time, and that's the mud lag |
| 2025-01-24 20:29 | Solipsis | if only when hitting enter then that makes sense for it trying to use that to determine latency |
| 2025-01-24 20:29 | Rairila | yeah. for telnetga - I gotta hit enter |
| 2025-01-24 20:28 | Zaffer | Char.Vitals shows up every time you would otherwise get a prompt. |
| 2025-01-24 20:28 | Zaffer | You get that regardless of telnetga config. |
| 2025-01-24 20:28 | Zaffer | *nod* |
| 2025-01-24 20:28 | Rairila | Chars.Vitals being from GMCP |
| 2025-01-24 20:27 | Zaffer | http://flaprider.dyndns.org/~hair/tf/topics/prompt_protocol.html |
| 2025-01-24 20:27 | Rairila | so it doesn't seem much different than the Chars.Vitals |
| 2025-01-24 20:27 | Zaffer | Oh, it helps to get the prompt data *nod* |
| 2025-01-24 20:27 | Rairila | when I hit enter, I get a GA event, which contains my stats data, and a string represetntation of it. |
| 2025-01-24 20:26 | Solipsis | it seems to be how mudlet tracks network latency by default, not sure what the mechanics in there are |
| 2025-01-24 20:26 | Zaffer | But strictly speaking, -/+ telnetga doesn't really matter much to most clients these days, right? |
| 2025-01-24 20:25 | Rairila | so the telnet ga data looks like other data you get from gmcp. in tintin, I just created an {IAC GA} event and captured it. |
| 2025-01-24 20:25 | Solipsis | i am mostly trying to do some profiling on some stuff i wrote that definitely is slow so wanted all the info i could get |
| 2025-01-24 20:24 | Zaffer | I tried to write a Python client for a terminal application at work. It ended up being way more work than I was willing to put in. |
| 2025-01-24 20:23 | Mare | run @2e fol mare |
| 2025-01-24 20:23 | Zaffer | Ah, the go-ahead stuff. Really meant for more of a terminal application type thing. |
| 2025-01-24 20:23 | Dumbledore | telnet is the best! |
| 2025-01-24 20:22 | Mare | real players still mud on telnet |
| 2025-01-24 20:22 | Rhane | <- tried to write a mud once, has 12 several-year-old tabs on the telnet protocol somewhere in my browser windows |
| 2025-01-24 20:22 | Sumone | it is magic |
| 2025-01-24 20:21 | Ryoki | boggle |
| 2025-01-24 20:21 | Rairila | heh.. samesies |
| 2025-01-24 20:21 | Zaffer | *ponder* Now I have to google what a telnet GA sequence is |
| 2025-01-24 20:20 | Solipsis | oh interesting, thx |
| 2025-01-24 20:20 | Rhane | config +telnetga perhaps? |
| 2025-01-24 20:19 | Solipsis | from what i gather the <no GA> stuff i see at bottom right of mudlet is where there would normally be some network latency stuff, is there a way to get that working for Avatar? |
| 2025-01-24 19:52 | Divide | i had something ticking off spells and then swapped alts before it finished |
| 2025-01-24 19:52 | Divide | nod that's totally why, also i think i know how it got turned on |
| 2025-01-24 19:51 | Boneitis | Generally speaking, that's why you never make arrows. Otherwise you may have just been unlucky :) |
| 2025-01-24 19:51 | Boneitis | and glass/ebony |
| 2025-01-24 19:51 | Divide | but thanks |
| 2025-01-24 19:51 | Boneitis | Otherwise, the cooldown timers on sables/explosives don't tick off |
| 2025-01-24 19:51 | Divide | whaaat, how did it get turned on? |
| 2025-01-24 19:50 | Boneitis | config -savespell |
| 2025-01-24 19:50 | Divide | hmm i haven't managed to produce any fletches with my regular aliases for the past bunch of attempts |

| 2025-01-24 15:25 | Alrin | Time to make a new hero alt for foraging ;) |
| 2025-01-24 15:25 | Sylos | have you tried getting alrin's druid army to farm them for you on multiday? |
| 2025-01-24 15:25 | Alrin | Oh, you wanted hero level; gotcha |
| 2025-01-24 15:24 | Voron | I was asking if that's intentional :) |
| 2025-01-24 15:24 | Skia | not sure why you asked :P |
| 2025-01-24 15:24 | Alrin | Oh, hah |
| 2025-01-24 15:24 | Skia | ok, there you go |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Voron | I just foraged 5 times in the meadow and it gave me lord level ones :( |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Skia | oh I misread, I htink they make hero ones on mid |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Alrin | There's a forest-type room south of center; forage there :) |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Sylos | buy them? :P |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Voron | Yes, but I Was trying to get some hero level kits *wink* |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Skia | forage on thorn? |
| 2025-01-24 15:23 | Voron | Feels like they should :P |
| 2025-01-24 15:22 | Alluvia | :( |
| 2025-01-24 15:22 | Skia | no |
| 2025-01-24 15:22 | Alluvia | hmmm does a lord foraging fletch kits on mid not forage < Lord level kits? |
