command line util to encode/decode framed packets?

Jump

  • I did use par2 and tar to generate redundancy, but I still need a way to locate it in the bytestream. Tar doesn't seem to reliably mark the start or end of files :/

  • I tried that first! But tar complains if it can't find the file header! So I still need to do some sort of packets. Unless you know some sort of workaround?

    • If you could be the best at something but nobody could know, what would it be?

  • Cracking DRM. Win-win.

    • Computer nerds of Lemmy, do you also enjoy comparing natural systems to large codebases in programming? What are your favorite peculiar similarities?

    Jump

  • I always say that JavaScript is the most English-like programming language. Like English, its made mostly of stolen idioms and legacy syntax.

    • Is anyone else highly concerned with the SCOTUS ruling that the POTUS is immune from criminal liability?

  • I'm pissed that Biden isn't calling their bluff and breaking a ton of laws right now.

    • What did people do before smartphones to pass the time when you were bored?

    Jump

  • Comic books. And those weird bathroom readers.

    • You're an archeologist from a future civilization. What would you think of our civilization based on the Internet?

    Jump

  • lol, as if the internet would survive long enough to be studied archeologically. most digital media lasts 10 years, 20 tops. future archeologists will get whatever was worth laser-etching into a sapphire disc and they'll just have to live with that.

    • Lemons(?) of Lemmy, what is something that feels so obvious to you that you just get lowkey pissed at the world for not knowing?

  • stronger products need less advertising, so an over-advertised product is likely inferior.

    • What is an underrated/forgotten video game that you think deserved a second chance?

    Jump

  • Technically there is a successor to Vib-Ribbon but it's iPhone only if I recall? "Russian Dancing Men".

  • Retro/Grade is a rhythm/shooter mashup where you travel backwards through time and un-fire a bunch of lasers to un-kill a bunch of ships. It was designed for a guitar hero controller if I recall? I found the visuals nauseating and the music lackluster but that premise is gold and deserves another chance.

    Also PLEASE play the music backwards??? It's a game about going back in time, c'monnnnn.

  • Alley Cat actually got a second chance! Look up "Alley Cat: ReMeow"

    • How can I easily and conveniently transfer files wirelessly between my linux computer and android phone?

    Jump

  • syncthing is the easy option if you have some files you always want to have on both. if you just want to access your desktop files from your phone, I recommend Cx File Explorer for Android, it's a file browser that supports various network file share protocols including Samba and SFTP.

    • Need to register a domain for business and get a simple website up and running in the USA - tips?

    Jump

  • I'm impressed that you found a way to give an answer less helpful than 'just google it.' Where do you think chatgpt (and google) get their knowledge?? Threads like this one.

    • Need to register a domain for business and get a simple website up and running in the USA - tips?

    Jump

  • I would avoid the .us domain unless you have a good spam filter. If you register with .us, you get put on a public list, and you get calls from people begging you to hire them to design your website.

    • How do you like to tell people about the fediverse?

    Jump

  • I dont. Its honestly not great. I'd rather that effort went to preserving and repairing the existing tools of the free and open web -- the old protocols are extensible. Imagine if we had an RSS client with a "reblog" feature!

    "Federation" adds overhead and honestly creates as many problems as it solves. It's not a selling point, its a price tag.

  • I had been playing Minecraft back in the Technic modding era, lots of item tubes and machine blocks, and I remember looking at my actual real life washing machine and thinking "I bet I could use a wooden pipe to extract that into the dryer"
