Q: Can you have riddles that require information from a certain site?

Zani XuI was thinking about making a riddle that needed a certain site. For example, What3Words is a site that translates 3 words into a 3 by 3 meter square on a map. However, the only way you could solve a puzzle that used 3 words is if you had the site. Is it ok to create puzzles that require you to u...

@ffao at the moment I'm having trouble installing pyv8
(trying to run a local version so I can muck around with the pinglist, but...)
 
ffao
ffao
Pyv8 is annoying to install, yeah
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
I've tried, but .exe seems to be causing issues on Ubuntu
 
ffao
ffao
Oh, you're on Linux
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
I am. For some reason. I'm not a programmer, but I'm on Linux.
 
ffao

7:21 PM
You should be looking for v8 Linux binaries then, there seem to be some here: github.com/emmetio/pyv8-binaries?files=1
I hope at least one works
I don't have Linux to test
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
trying stuff
hmm, i'm not entirely sure where to put the file
...well. If I run python3 nocrash.py I get an error about StringIO, but if I run python nocrash.py I get an issue about PyV8.
 
Mithrandir

8:18 PM
...I may be slightly rewriting Shiro to work with python3 locally, @ffao
problem is that I've got no idea what I'm doing :P
also it doesn't appear to like circular from ChatExchange import chatexchange
removes circular import
gets error module 'PyV8' has no attribute 'JSContext'
slaps laptop
 
ffao
ffao
...circular?
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
that's what SO said
 
ffao
ffao
that makes no sense to me but ok
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
8:34 PM
well, it looks like this now. (i should mention that i have no idea what I'm doing)
 
ffao
ffao
the JSContext error seems to be common, but it has something to do with installing pyv8 on linux, something I really cannot help with

@ffao so it seems to mostly working, only now i get this error (which may have something to do with me changing the stuff to work with python3):

ffao
oh
replace obtainedseed by seed in that line
(line 451 in bot.py)
made the bugfix in github too, thanks for letting me know
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
lovely
...so now it looks like it's working from the terminal but I can't seem to find it on SE
...oh. ha.
alright, login seems to be failing 
[02:20:04] ChatExchange.chatexchange.browser.LoginError: failed to get `acct` cookie from Stack Exchange OpenID, check credentials provided for accuracy
2018-07-22 23:20:04.530777 UTC
  File "bot.py", line 564, in <module>
    main()

  File "bot.py", line 74, in main
    client.login(email, password)

  File "/home/whoops/Shiro/ChatExchange/chatexchange/browser.py", line 158, in login_site
(I've now tried with three different accounts, I don't think it's the credentials.)
 
ffao
ffao
huh, bring it up with the chatexchange folks maybe?
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
i can do that, yeah
 
ffao
ffao
@Mithrandir do you have a Meta Stack Exchange account?
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
11:27 PM
@ffao yes
 
ffao
ffao
do those logins you used have one? they need to
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
Yes, I believe so. *double checks*
Yes, all three have MSE accounts.
 
ffao
ffao
oh, I thought that was the issue
Shiro didn't have one, and I got the same error message
now that I made one it logins fine for me
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
hmm
 
Alconja
Alconja
"failed to get acct cookie from Stack Exchange OpenID", is it to do with OpenID logins being deprecated?
 
Mithrandir
Mithrandir
11:30 PM
OpenID isn't gone until the 25th, actually
 
Alconja
Alconja
Ok. Knew it was going, just wasn't sure when.
