2026-02-19 21:03:07 +0100 <tomsmeding> it's not expensive to run :)

2026-02-19 21:02:11 +0100 <newmind> joking aside: great that some people still provide services without charging for it... or filling it with ads
2026-02-19 20:59:34 +0100 <tomsmeding> yeah, it's more than 10^10 cycles spent waiting!
2026-02-19 20:59:01 +0100 <monochrom> Star Trek TNG's Data would be like, "believe me, 5 seconds felt like eternity" :)
2026-02-19 20:59:00 +0100 <tomsmeding> you can rent servers ;)
2026-02-19 20:58:47 +0100 <newmind> but everything is cloud nowadays... we own nothing

2026-02-19 20:58:25 +0100 <tomsmeding> the answer to that is "use your own machine" :p
2026-02-19 20:58:13 +0100 <newmind> so the new challenge is: find legitimate commands that take longer than 5 seconds and then complain why they are not working :)

2026-02-19 20:57:52 +0100 <tomsmeding> yahb can't distinguish between "command runs forever" and "prompt is gone"
2026-02-19 20:57:48 +0100 <monochrom> interesting pathway
2026-02-19 20:57:37 +0100 <tomsmeding> yep

2026-02-19 20:57:19 +0100 <newmind> timeout that looks for the prompt line after running a command and kills it if doesn't see the prompt?
2026-02-19 20:57:06 +0100yahb2(~yahb2@user/tomsmeding/bot/yahb2) (Remote host closed the connection)
2026-02-19 20:53:36 +0100 <tomsmeding> turns out that `:unset prompt` is also an equivalent to `:q` but with a 5-second delay

2026-02-19 20:51:25 +0100 <monochrom> doesn't hurt to dream big :)
2026-02-19 20:51:01 +0100 <tomsmeding> you think there's docker in the yahb sandbox?
2026-02-19 20:50:42 +0100 <monochrom> :set editor docker run haskell

2026-02-19 20:46:46 +0100 <tomsmeding> this stuff is to make it a little harder for clueless people / trolls to mess up the bot for other

2026-02-19 20:45:22 +0100 <tomsmeding> credits to int-e for both, they shall be set as ignored shortly
2026-02-19 20:45:10 +0100 <yahb2> editor not set, use :set editor

2026-02-19 20:45:08 +0100 <tomsmeding> there's also this one, which is harmless as-is but has the potential to be funny
2026-02-19 20:44:41 +0100 <monochrom> oh hrm interesting failure mode :)
