    I am The Special Lady!! The Helper site has some really helpful people and tools. Hope you are well.
    Oh man! I know that feeling...

    Back when I was always doing PHP work, even if I was going to be the only one ever using the page, I always sanitized out of habit. I personally feel thats a good thing though :D
    It has lots of so many unwanted features in it that over complicate things. I don't really know how makefiles work :p I heard about them but I never actually learned to use them. I already had MinGw installed so I decided to use that :)
    Ill look into it as I don't know the use of command prompt nor its features available. Im using command prompt only because I don't wanna use codeblocks nor Visual C++ as its a tough job to get them supporting allegro library and none of their interfaces really suit my needs. I found that Notepad++ was really the easiest for me to use as it didn't have tons of features and it had a larger window for typing code which appealed much more to me.
    I did just find 1 potentially site breaking problem.

    For the sorting method, I notice you pull the DESC or ASC straight from the URL. This is very dangerous, because (I didn't try anything to break it) I just put a random string in there and it returned a MySQL error, which means that you are putting that string straight into SQL. A better way would be to have maybe order=1 and then use a switch/case statement to say:

    switch($_GET['sort']) {
    case 1: $order="ASC"; break;
    case 2: $order="DESC"; break;
    default: $order="ASC";
    }
    C is very good too

    As for your website, what part exactly do you need to know about? SQL injections? Etc.
    Box.onInput("Reset", "KP_I", {.y = 0;});

    The "onInput" method adds input input processing to an object. The first parameter is the name of the input for reconfiguration (ie. Think "Attack" button or "Cast Spell A"), the second one is which input, in this case, K (keyboard) P (button press) I (the 'I' key on the keyboard), and the third parameter is the code to fire on the object when the input occurs. So off memory, it's like KP (keyboard press) KR (?) (keyboard release), etc. There's also Mouse and Joystick, lol. :p
    Is my Meat Grinder tower ready for approval? I'm working on an update, but only adds some visual features

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
