@Ave Yes but slooooowly

Ave

Yeah, server is sort of handling a lot atm

KSP multiplayer server and minecraft server and all that

Tons of discord bots

user15026

Busy busy :)

Ave

It's put to good use, heh

user15026

For sure!

Ave

I should find some stuff to do with my new server too, probably

It hardly gets over 10% CPU, and ram is mostly empty

Q: Is it better to damage boost projectile or hitscan as Mercy?

If I have a choice between boosting say, a Junkrat or a Soldier, who should I go for?

overwatch

Q: Looking for where addons are downloaded in files

So I've been trying to use the Gmad extractor so I can make my own skins for Garrys Mod, but it says it can't find the addons and I need to put them in the same folder as it. But I don't know where to find them in the folders. Can anyone help?

@Yuuki now there's a classy paragraph

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune Apparently there's a ligature for </.

And now the left angle bracket in the closing tag looks significantly different from the left angle bracket in the opening tag.

user15026

@Yuuki oh great I can't unsee that now

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki keming, yo

Yuuki

22:31

Okay, something that's bothering me with this file is that all of the indentation is off by one space.

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki this is one of the reasons i like go

Yuuki

The first </div> is one that I fixed.

GodEmperorDune

you run goformat and it just fixes all the things

Yuuki

Notice how all of the following elements are off by one space.

@GodEmperorDune :P

@Yuuki who ligaturizes </?

The Mattbat999

Is there a way to send another user a message without chat? Like an email via SE?

Fluttershy

@GodEmperorDune lol

GodEmperorDune

@ToxicFrog i think vs code

ToxicFrog

22:42

@TheMattbat999 as far as I know, no

Yuuki

I'm using couslig.

The Mattbat999

@ToxicFrog need to request that...

GodEmperorDune

just in the display, the underlying file still has the real characters

ToxicFrog

@GodEmperorDune AIUI ligatures are a font thing, not an editor thing

user15026

@TheMattbat999 Nope.

ToxicFrog

22:43

@Yuuki aha whoops

user15026

There is no private messaging function on SE

Yuuki

user15026

@TheMattbat999 It's been requested and denied multiple times

Yuuki

Looks like it's a holdover from Fira Code.

ToxicFrog

@GodEmperorDune yes, but that display feature is built into the font

Yuuki

22:44

Meant to be used as </ and />.

ToxicFrog

@Yuuki yes, couslig copies all the ligatures from fc

It's not hard to build a version with some disabled though

GodEmperorDune

@ToxicFrog very well, then it's in an editor that supports using the fonts containing ligatures

ToxicFrog

@GodEmperorDune

...yes? It would kind of have to be?

@Yuuki catch me in half an hour or so and I can either build you a new version or point you at the code to do it yourself

Q: Add Throwing Range Potions

I was wondering if you could make it so that you can throw potions further. I'm doing some grenades but have already used egg and snowball. I did not find anything else that is throwable. I have tried to search but did not find anything.

@Yuuki fira code is SO GOOD

I hate the ligatures but without them it's perfect

Yuuki

I like the ligatures, but there are some that I don't use and therefore do not like.

</ being one of them.

ToxicFrog

@Ave Fira Code is just Fira Mono with ligatures, so if you like FC but hate the ligatures, install Fira Mono and use that

Ave

Oh that makes sense

ToxicFrog

The only reason to use Fira Code over Fira Mono is that you specifically want the ligatures.

Ave

I use fira mono already on sublime I think

@Ash that sucks

ToxicFrog

@Yuuki so, there's two mitigation options there; one is to turn off the ligatures you don't like, the other is to copy over more punctuation characters so that, e.g., / and < use the Fira versions, so the ligatures don't look out of place.

user15026

@TheMattbat999 This Meta.SE post gives you an idea of how many times it's been rejected

Yuuki

@ToxicFrog Probably turn off specific ligatures, I'm thinking. What do you use to edit the TTF file?

@TheMattbat999 SE's core concept is cooperative work. To that end, all SE communication (posts, comments, chat) is publicly available.

Direct (and more specifically private) messages run counter to that idea.

Unless you're okay with your direct messages being Google-indexed and visible to everyone.

Systems Metabolism

Proposed Q&A site for individuals interested in the dynamics of systems metabolism and the interactions, regulations, and influences that define. The scale of focus is intended to range from systems biology to intra-cellular pathways to organelle contributions.

Currently in definition.

@Yuuki github.com/toxicfrog/Ligaturizer

@Yuuki I've been using Fontforge to verify the generated glyphs and CALT tables, you could probably use that to turn off individual ligatures as well

If you wanted to use Ligaturizer, find the ones you want to disable in ligatures.py and comment them out
