kermit gets attacked by a robot army

init

lambda-chat.gingerindustries.repl.co

here we gooooo

Please don't stress-test the site yet!

I haven't added any rate-limiting or anything

why replit login :|

Requiring allowing popups for it to work is mega jank

that's what I'm hosting it on

???

oh

sory

It doesn't work

Also the login process is wack and a half

uh oh

logged i but cant send messages

^

when i clicked on this link at first i was like "why does lambda.chat look exactly like SE chat, and then i realized this was an SE chatroom

trying to fix

it broken

I assume upload si a mockup button?

doing it through replit rather than setting up your own account system?

I think we can send messages by creating public rooms

Why does it say not logged in, aftrer I logged in

trying to fix

The users list for invite doesn't seem to work right now either

Assuming these are minor bugs though, this is a pretty impressive project

Yeah

JUS TUSE A WEBSOCKET

Lemme guess, lambda.chat is built on a tower-of-babel of ever more arcane incantations from weird libraries?

Likely

Knowing Ginger, it's probably built from three.js

system restart

fixed!

I learned, to my disgust and horror, a few days ago, that google docs are canvases

And all of the stuff in them is drawn in instead of using HTML/CSS

ಠ_ಠ

@emanresuA I'm using socket.io :/

@RadvylfPrograms yup:

import pywebpush
import eventlet
import os
import json
import requests
import logging
import base64
import jellyfish
import socketio #upm package(python-socketio)
from eventlet import wsgi
from flask import Flask, render_template, request, make_response, send_file, redirect, url_for, abort, send_from_directory
from replit import db
from sys import stdout
import util
import users
import chat
import notifications

Well, a lot of those aren't too bad I guess...

os, json, requests, logging, base64 all seem fine

it's working now

@RadvylfPrograms :D

@RadvylfPrograms muahaha

restarting...

done

@all we're back!

placeholder

im assuming this notification bell is an unimplemented feature?

yup

@RadvylfPrograms I thought it was elaborate svg?

Might have been, or even be an elaborate svg on some browsers and canvas on others

uhh

every time i tried to send moby dick more appeared

what did you do?

state is lost when you reload

pasted the entire text of moby dick into the message box and hit send

sent a whole bunch of spaces and this happened...

there is some kinda length limit, and if you send a message longer than that, the user list gets an extra copy of each user in the room on your end

what

how have you done this

I don't know

i pasted the entirety of moby dick into the chat box

._.

youre the one who wrote the code, all i did was abuse with with over a million characters of text

All I did was for(;;)send('cookie')

you mean the thing I told you to not do?

🤷‍♀️

working for me

I have no words.

Is there gonna be markdown?

yes

status-norepro

you can also discuss here

Okay, I think sending massive messages just causes socket.io to flip the fuck out and restart the connection by force, causing the userUpdate message to be resent, duplicating the user list

brb

most likely something like that, its like youre reconnecting to the room without it deleting the old userlist

it takes about 110 chapters of moby dick to produce the glitch

104 chapters of moby dick sends fine, 105 chapters glitches

it looks like the precise limit might be 1,000,000 characters

no, its somewhere between 999568 and 990484

tls packet size maybe?

Is it just me or are the rooms not loading?

Could it be 1,000,000 when you add a bit of metadata?

I do like how I can sign in but not see any of the rooms lmao

@Ginger Is it gonna save chat history

it seems one of you dumbnuts did something to break lambda chat

Please, please tell me it wasn't Roman's use of Unicode

If Unicode breaks lambda chat I'm slapping you with a fish

Also, in casr this didn't get saved:

> Even if it's like, some sort of P2P history thing, with lambda.chat cryptographically signing transcripts of 100 messages at a time and having us store them in our localstorage

This would be a cool way to do transcripts without lambda.chat using storage

hmmmmmmmmm

I'd be fine with running a server to store your transcripts honestly

what have yall done to lambda.chat

I'm not super comfortable hosting the whole backend to avoid a faker.js situation, but I could set up a simple little thing that stores and allows fetching of transcripts

@lyxal status-inprogress

hm

time to fix shit :\

reaches for fish

server restarting

no no put it down

aha, found it!

someone managed to add a nonexistent user to a room's owners list

@lyxal guess what? it was the vyxal room that broke it

I need you to tell me every thing you did to that room, in order

amazing

turns out it's the vyxal room

who'd've guessed

I clicked create new room, entered room name and description and clicked create

Oh I wasn't signed in either

oh.

well fOk

:|

Yeah someone in the vyxal gang is usually around to stress-test your input validation when you least expect it lol

amazing

I didn't know there was authentication lol

I'm stupid

So then I tried it again after signing in

my code doesn't check if you're signed in

you already have a lambda.chat room on se; please keep it there as it is off topic here

...

How do you store rooms if you can't store messages?

@RadvylfPrograms move plz

@RadvylfPrograms it wasn't even a stress test lol

using replit db

i'm just waiting for aaron to find an ACE in lambda.chat somehow, lol

and we're back

← 33 messages moved from The Nineteenth Byte

Uh... all the rooms 404

status-norepro

reload

nvm... nbut Vyxal 404

I know, fixing

When the chat room list is sus

I know, I know

It 404s btw lol

^^

And... it's down

nice

The room when the repl was up

I'm restarting it

why are there two lambda lounges now

oh no, they're cloning

._.

I knew this would be a bad idea

i don't see two lounges but i do see two vyxals

working on it

reloaded and its gone now

sus
