Infosec guys who primarily work with Windows but sometimes need to do stuff in Linux often use Powershell on Linux so they can reuse their scripts with few changes. Python is too close to programming rather than scripting, which for some reason is the default for infosec.

It doesn't support _real_ fractional scaling. What it does is that it renders things at an integer scaling and then downscales the window as a texture, making it blurry as shit. It's implemented like this because gnome devs are also gtk devs so they are fucking retarded and didn't implement fractional scaling in gtk (intentionally). Qt supports fractional scaling properly, including on x11 (and all other operating systems/display servers that it can run on).

Installers are terrible. Each program ends up having to implement its own update mechanism which is absolutely retarded. Tons of people get malware trying to find the correct download button out of 20 fake ones when they download software. If you really want to download a package but not install it (like you would do on windows) then you can do that with pacman as well, but that's retarded. At work we have our own local network repository, so that's one realistic solution.

Step 1: understand that AI currently has no concept of grid space and cannot conform to it
Step 2: understand that you are trying to enforce a uniform grid, limited palette, and consistent pixel size into models known for their inherent unpredictability and inconsistency
Step 3: Set your base resolution to your desired sprite size times 8 or 16, even if it normally goes against that model's trained dataset if local. If using a more accurate paid model, just ensure the grid is as uniform as possible, resize image as a multiple of the most common """pixel""" size
Step 4: Downscale the output in your image editor of choice to forcibly align the grid as best as possible
(Step 4b: https://github.com/KennethJAllen/proper-pixel-art )
Step 5: Prepare to manually clean every single pixel on the image generated because of everything mentioned in Step 2 because your shit is going to look retarded and bad always and have 30 different visually identical colors bloating your palette per section.
(you can automate the palette part somewhat in various ways, the nparray degunker in the OP is a good start.)

OPTIONAL:
Step 6: Be a monkey and post his totally passable rawgen pixel art as a reply to me missing all the misaligned mixels and bloatshitted palette only further proving my point

let's be honest, "passable" is what 95% of ai users aim for. there's no reward for making all the effort unless it's for your personal satisfaction or you're making some sort of indie game and trying to obscure the fact that you're using ai

>>107690384
Its one of the few artforms that AI is incapable of doing properly (still) and likely wont be for a while until someone with my very specific autism tackles the problem instead of jerking off and playing MMOs for 20 years, learned how to code and bakes an entirely new model function, or finds a way to constrain gridlines during generation instead of poorly trying to replicate stretched and bloated youtube thumbnails from google images.

>>107690393
I should have put passable in even more """""quotes""""" because its only passable to the zooms who have only seen everything through their tiny phone screens that autoscale everything so they think bilinear filtering is the norm.
>or you're making some sort of indie game and trying to obscure the fact that you're using ai
Its less about trying to obscure that you're using AI and more about the technical constraints. Its ironic to me that pixel art itself was born from limited hardware, and now the most advanced software in the world can't recreate it faithfully.

If you're putting a bloatshit palette sprite into your game, you're going to have a bad time in so many ways I can't even begin to list them off, but most instant concern is your main dude goes from being a few kb of an asset to a couple mb, now start multiplying that by everything on the screen and you've exponentially fucked load times for A PIXELSHIT GAME.

Needing some advice on music players for Linux. Running Antergos. Installed a few, and so far the only viable option is Audacious, but it is missing some creature comforts that I got with foobar. Most importantly, I want one that will support some sort of convolver, since I have impulse waveforms for all of my cans. I am using a Schiit stack to play everything. Anyone have any recommended players?

The last time i was on fedora I tried every single music player they had available on their store or whatever it's called. Literally all of them were horrific compared to foobar2k, most would just bug out for no reason, but i think some were abandoned anyways.
All I wanted was my foobar2k ui where the left side is my library selector from file location and the center is a library directed by the prior. It seemed the programs that could sort file location would just put everything into a massive file that was sorted by file location but not in a tree system, so it was dramatically worse.
I probably didn't explain it well enough if you don't already use a similiar system on foobar but literally every other program i could abandon on windows for linux but foobar2k

Optimize software? LOL. That's not what modern software companies do. They only know how to buy better hardware. After two decades of being able to do that, they have no clue how to deal with software needing to be optimized. The irony is that software companies are trying to enable AI that would do away with all need for software expertise but since AI isn't smart enough for this, they stuck needing humans while also telling humans to fuck off.

>>107690083
It all depends what the faulty hardware is doing. Firing spurious IRQs, DMAing to the wrong place, or talking over another device on the bus (pre PCIe of course since that's point to point) are almost certain to cause a crash. Simply going into unexpected states can confuse the driver, which may trigger a panic because hardware is not behaving as it should.

SATA disconnecting is specifically handled by Linux, as part of SATA hot plug. Even if the board or port don't support hot plug, it will support hot unplug. It just might not recognize it without a reboot if it connects again.

You should really want a RAM stick dying to cause a panic, not a reboot. A panic might give some clue why it crashed, a hard reboot usually leaves no traces, but of course the lower RAM count isn't hard to notice. Though if the panic handler tries to write to the dead stick, it'll cause an exception inside the final exception handler, and on x86 that triggers a reset.

maybe
i remember it was a reboot but i might be wrong
i remember i couldnt find my last session in dmesg logs so maybe thats why i assumed?
it could also be that the stick died before ive turned my PC on and then after ive loaded with only 4 Gb of RAM OOM killer just fucking wasted everything on sight or something
but that would be a very weird thing to happen

It most likely just triggered faults inside of interrupt handlers repeatedly until the CPU reset.

Started fucking around and accidentally starting making a cross platform build tool for deploying web based applications to Android, Windows, and Linux. No apple products cuz I'm poor and can't test it.

Basically it just uses whatever native webview is on the platform and syncs with your web project.

Working on basic plugins for native APIs such as keystore, camera, file system, biometrics, etc. whatever
this means there is a javasript bridge that talks to the native API

Did I mention that it's all in C and only depends on c compiler, +( gradle and CMake for android builds) ?

What are the technological implications of building cross platform with C, HTML, and JavaScript with sprinkles of native code for mobile platforms?

React native basically is typescript and their weird markup templating language (jsx i think) for rendering components that are backed by native implementation on android/ios/windows/etc. it’s just “use the same elm style ui in the web and someone will do the hard work of doing ffi with native ui” sort of thing.

this is just using the browser, so it’ll eat memory and battery life like crazy (not like react also does not because it uses a JS engine that has garbage collection so you get janky UI)
