VITAS

As you might know im using piwik to track web statistics for spacedock. My question to the mod publishers would be: Are there any Stats/Metrics you would like to see (on your stats page) for your mod? e.g. viewing times, os type,... And my question for Users would be: Are you interrested in mod usggestions based on the stats (e.g. the top mods ppl also downloaded after downloading the current one)?

youre still welcome to help. masses of work still to do.

wow only missing a rowboat. im in the north of germany so all is flat here. but at least i get one firework display per night ...someone is always making one in the city.

can we switch for a few weeks?

Ok look closeley at the screenshots i posted. is that precise enough?

Heres some of my progress with the ui rewrite. I made all colors (and black) adjustable from one variable. So by switching black and white there could be a dark theme again.

Hi, i thought it might be interresting to see what the enviroment others live in looks like. So heres a Picture taken from my Balcony Looking towards the City center of Hamburg, Germany: I Invite others to post the views out of their windows or from their balconys too.

if it has to be acc by multiple people simultaniously i would recomend xampp (includes mysql with phpmyadmin out of the box)

doable but why do you need the exact time? you could subscribe to the update email end recive an email when a mod is updated.

doesnt the changelog show that?

watching "Where to invade next" by Michael Moore while waiting for disk scan to finish and saw this: As a german i must say: pretty fun facts p.s. youre allowed to like that but remember: dont mention the war!

ok result of half a days worth of trying to med my desktop: the boot drive is broken and the gfx card wont be detected. i hope ill find some space somewhere to at least try to rescue all my data. After that ive no idea how to fix this with the parts i have. P.s. i dont understand why ppl "like" that ive got catastrophical computer failures :/

So i wanted to continue coding today but instead im reanimating both my desktop and my laptop (again!). Seems like my desktop HD is on the verge of dying and the laptop has serious fan and power connector issues. Thats what youll get when youre forced to use "youngtimer" pc parts that are over 4 years old. @TiktaalikDreamingNow lieking this could be gotten wrong :>

@TiktaalikDreaming sad? thing is that i allready was a sysadmin when the classics where contemporary. Darklight seems to at least get the loading times down to saner levels. (or we scared everyone away) Uploads and frontend are one thing because you use the frontend to upload and after that it gets distributed to the cdn. to explain the server structor as of now: we have one server for the frontend and multiple for downloads we are planing to host the frontend on multiple servers too but as you can imagine this isnt as easy as with single files. The Database needs to be in sinc between all nodes, uploads have to be synced, user sessions have to be known to all servers and so on. Going with my policy of not using "free" external services to gurantee availability and to prevent leakage of userdata i wont be using any services like cloudflare but instead have my own network (like we allready do). @swjr-swis I value your posts and your ability to ground everyone with them. It wasnt my intention to talk trash about the coder but found it some representation of the despear. besides ive offered him my help back when he started but he refused/didnt reply. And yes i get easy into an nerdrage over other peoples code but i guess others have the same with what i produce

Sorry for the page loading times. We didnt manage to migrate the frontend to the cdn before the 1.1 flood hit the site. I will make that happen on monday if our tests go well. (i did what i could to kick python to get a move on for now) in the meantime ill suggest using ckan (our fileservers are as fast as ever)

To me its somewhat funyn how enraged a coder must be to use vars like that. We all have been there. Thats how Sysadmin from hell came to be ATM im just porting the sturcture as is but i wanted to make some sort of wizzard/assistent/multiple step thing where you just click nex, next,next, finish. I myself forgot to edit the description several times. I need a better brain->computer interface. Just cant type fast enough :/

i always scratch my head when i read these code lines: {% if stupid_user %} <div class="module"> <h2>You haven't finished filling out your mod listing!</h2> <p>Before you publish it, you should at least <a href="{{ url_for("mods.edit_mod", id=mod.id, mod_name=mod.name) }}">edit your description</a>.</p> </div> {% endif %}

After 24h of very intense coding my rewrite now looks like this: NOTE: isnt finished! contains known bugs! missing stuff (e.g. list view from dev)! has known visual shortcommings (e.g. contrast on menu text)! In order to not break dev or beta ive not pushed it to the repo. so it wont be on any public accesible site until all functions and pages are built. For the moment this is purly about making a lagecy free codebase that is more easy to fix and that works on mobile. I post this purley to show what im working on. I hope you like it even more than whats on dev

i started rewriting the whole frontend. its a huge undertaking so it will take some time.

yes sorry beta wasnt updated because as you can see theres heaps still to do.

i dont care about ranking because more users dont earn me anything apart from the feeling of acompishment. But ppl want to look up stuff on the bus nowdays and ive to respect that. @tg626 you remember how all this came about? i had no choice but to roll with it because there was a big void that i was asked to fill yesterday. What im doing now is to migrate everything to a state where it doesnt take the whole of silicon valley to run it with the amount of usage we currently have. All that trying to keep downtimes at a minimum and everyone happy. (the last thing is impossbile because some complain i should fix bugs instantly and others say i shouldnt change a thing and dont even think about restarting the server) i should take a break im a bit exaustet so please excuse my temper

because its still the old crap with some css slapped over it. (to be clear im calling the sourcecode crap) btw i dont want to recreate or emulate kerbalstuff.

that was inigmas task but he is rarly on nowdays (as many of the early helpers) im working on having different sized thumbnails depending on the box size i know mobile is broken and the html&css code is a mess. ive to give me a puss and rewrite the whole frontend. so much work.... or you could help as said above the only way to cure all of this is rewriting the frontend and when i do i can include new features allong the way.

regarding emails: google microsoft and others decided to flag them as spam and do silent discards on them because they thought the sudden increase in email output can only be caused by a spambot. I had to fill out many forms and call in favours to get unflagged.

pps i just had the idea that i COULD add widgets to the page so you could customize your game page like you do on your android home screen. move arround elements add shortcuts swap widgets (e.g. the slideshow for a listview) that way everyone can have it exactly like he/she wants it
