How can I get the standard Minecraft server to listen on IPv6? I'm pretty sure that used to work by default.

@dirtycommo Yes. I definitely want to completely restart my work on a Lisp-based Mastodon client. Since my initial experiments, I have spent a lot of time working on McCLIM (and specifically, Climaxima, which is my current main project).

I now know enough CLIM so that I can build a much better client. The old code it's really that great.

@dirtycommo That said, please note that it's really limited, and the only reason one would want to play with it is if you want to help expand it.

The main thing I need to figure out is how to create a widget that can display rich text, so that the mastodon messages can be formatted nicely. If that turns out to be possible, I'll definitely want to go back to the project.

@dirtycommo It's been a while since I worked on it, and I don't even have a development environment set up at the moment. It was a project to learn more about Smalltalk.

If I recall correctly, you have to create an instance of a connection object that holds the tokens and exposes some methods that can load messages, etc.

I started working on a UI where you instantiated an instance of it, passing in a connection to its initialiser.

I can look into it tomorrow.

@dirtycommo It is able to read messages and format them into Smalltalk objects. That's pretty much it.

I stopped working on it when I didn't find an easy way to display rich text in a text box.

@garbados I've never played that one. What platform are you playing it on and where can I buy it?

@lynnesbian SQL tables?

@dirtycommo Here's an example of the framework in use. An API call that returns JSON: https://github.com/cicakhq/potato/blob/master/src/potato/api.lisp#L221

And another call that returns the output of a template call: https://github.com/cicakhq/potato/blob/master/src/potato/register2.lisp#L96

@dirtycommo The good thing about Lisp is that it's so easy to integrate in a web environment so that a framework tends to be very small.

This is the one I built that is used by the chat application I was working on: https://github.com/lokedhs/lofn

It contains a very high performace template language (it generates Lisp which is then natively compiled on the fly).

I did a talk about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl8jQ2wRh6k

Please let me know if you have any questions

@garbados Which game? I thought there were a lot of battletech games out there

@dirtycommo Yes. I've written a few.

@lynnesbian Please don't. We want you to wake up at some point.

OTOH, I might consider going into cryo sleep until Linux has native support for ZFS.

@kurisu Hotter than Singapore? 🙂

@sir
You might alps be doing unaligned memory access on SPARC. x86 simply allows you to do them, but access will be slower. On SPARC you get a SIGBUS instead

@amiloradovsky
Calling mmap on a file and accessing the data through regular memory loads can be much more convenient and faster than manually loading the fat into a separate buffer.

You also need mmap when talking to some devices.

@fribbledom
The answer is, as usual Lisp. 😉

@gcupc Thanks for confirming. I thought it was just me.

Surely this must be a bug?

@gcupc Because it downloads all messages every time it's started?
