/mcg/ - Maid Computer General
Smiling sloppa edition

>General
The purpose of this thread is to discuss Maid Computers.

>What is a Maid Computer?
A Maid Computer is a highly mobile computer which can be used while standing or walking, without peripherals or special furniture, which can run compilers locally and has a physical keyboard and is small enough to fit in the standard apron of a maid outfit.

>Official Dra/g/on Maid Board Maidposting Guide
Please be polite when posting on the Dra/g/on Maid Board. Be nice to other maids and attach an image of your favorite maid to each post where you do not need the image field for something else (a process traditionally known as maidposting).

>Thread Open Discussion Topic
Discuss what Maid Computers you have and how you use them. Discuss high-end Maid Computers. Is there a manufacturer better than GPD? What Maid Computers do you want and how will you use them?

It's not that posting a maid confers authority (except picrel), it's jsut that it makes you identifiable.
>posts maid and stupid opinion
>posts maid and new unread opinion
We're predisposed to make quick judgements based on previous experience, so we will lean towards thinking your new idea is as dumb as the previous before reading, and will probably read uncounsciously looking for things to confirm our original bias. Same could apply if the first idea is good would make us prone to accepting second opinion. It ties back to the problem of the idea is evaluated on the merits of the author, not on the merits of the idea, which is a frowned concept on an anonymous basket weaving forum.

I don't think /cum/g posted porn on the blue board, at least not visibly to outsiders who weren't using their tools to view such porn. I believe they were banned because 4chan legal team was afraid a harmless image with embedded CP could give them trouble. Hence all embeds banned. If you do it secretly, they wouldn't know nor ban you, but the way /cumg/ was going, it raised the suspicion that every image posted there had embeds. Jannies don't carre about porn cunny, as can be usually seen on /dpt/ or /ptg/ when they post riskier OP pics. At most jannies delet the pic.
As for maid != /cumg/, I don't think jannies are that smart, they see embed they ban.

>>106291346
One such idea I've had which would trigger /tpg/ hardly would be get one cheap carcass of a malfunctioning le based ibm era thinkpad and fill it with phone/tablet internals. You could install some linux distros over the andorid and access them with termux or some X11 apps. Not optimal, but enough to trigger them to hell and back.


Also, are there even enough maids to keep a general up? Last one died with 11 posts, one of which was literally just a "bump".

>police maid
My understanding of /cumg/ was that it has two tools. Something that lets you post an image that has some embedded information which allows it to render as a different image from an anime porn site, and a really bad embedding script that uses LSB steganography. I had assumed it was a honeypot for catching low IQ pedophiles because of how bad LSB would be for any real attempt at data hiding.

I think janny banned it because it was pornography themed and also because it makes moderating images harder. If you are the police maid who was running the honeypot, I support your effort of catching pedophiles, but please focus on the higher IQ ones currently puppeting the US government, rather than the lower IQ ones who don't understand why LSB is inadequate for hiding data. The high IQ ones are a much bigger threat.

Shit, I might have missed them, too lazy to try to find mine and replies on desuarchive. 4chanx should highlight them there too instead of just on main site, since it links directly there.

>>106294978
/cumg/ was much more. They produced several softwares, like some image tagging and one plugin/usersciript/idk that I had that would take any image posted on 4chan and when you expanded it would expand to the higher res available on pixiv/booru/etc instead of whatever file limit. It didn't embed anything, the script jsut searched those sites and edited what was benig shown you. I liked it. Among other stuff they made. They had a based site (still banned URL) which I believe still hosts plenty of nice /g/ projects. Idk if people still update them. Their /g/'s good sites mirror still has some occasional updates, but I haven't seen one of those thread here in ages.

Point is, /cumg/ was a general that had active code production, and that's what I liked about them, not the porn per se. Like /tg/ gloats about being the board that produces the most shit: it's shit, but they're making stuff, it's a reason to be proud.

>I think janny banned
I doubt lowly jannies have decision power. They just follow orders from above. This site is a known honeypot with lots of govs feds glowies calling the shots. /cumg/ specifically I believe was targeted for the possibility of embeding cp and how hard moderating that would be. Glowies don't chatch pedos, they are pedos. "Plant pot on that commie's bag to have him arrested" has given way to "plant pedo on that chud's pc to have him arrested".

when going public, a customer will have the option of walking into any store with whatever phone, and place their order without any greater effort than showing a sales rep the pic on their device. You can ASK for pretty much anything, a final price point does not necessarily work with high-end customization, or we would need contact info to send an invoice.

How do you get the angle between two 3D positions?
I know you can check if one is in front of a cone with dot products and a constant below tau / 2(for radius of the cone)
same for a vector that points toward it if using cross products but getting the angles is where i don't know how you are supposed to calculate it
Anonymous No.106298673 >>106300188

ai sloppa gave me the following, which is close to what I barely remember from college:

function angle_between_vectors(x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2):
// Step 1: Compute the dot product
dot = x1*x2 + y1*y2 + z1*z2

// Step 2: Compute the magnitudes
mag1 = sqrt(x1*x1 + y1*y1 + z1*z1)
mag2 = sqrt(x2*x2 + y2*y2 + z2*z2)

// Step 3: Compute the cosine of the angle
cos_theta = dot / (mag1 * mag2)

// Step 4: Clamp the value to [-1, 1] to avoid numerical errors
cos_theta = max(-1, min(1, cos_theta))

// Step 5: Compute the angle in radians
angle = acos(cos_theta)

return angle

with z coords 0 and y coords being the same but only x coords differing i get nonsensical values when i should get an equivalent of -90° or 90°
the height coord does change the result as seems to be expected however so that's a start

Did you analyze the format? It doesn't seem to be straightforward LSB steganography at least, because interpreting it as that just results in gibberish.

The whole point of the thread was for everyone to post maids. If everyone is posting maids, then it isn't an identifiable trait. I have posted maids in this thread and the previous thread, yet I am not OP. Ironically, being the strongly dissenting textposter in a thread full of people posting random maid images (on an imageboard no less) makes (YOU) the identifiable one.

>i don't understand why there's only one float result either, is this proof that ai can't code?
What I understood from your question is "the angle between two 3d vectors". That answer is indeed a single float. That answer would be theta in picrel (in radians, as I doubt acos() would return degrees). In that sense, it doesn't show that ai can't code, for it did code what I told it to. The failure would be at my understanding of your needs.

>When i test it i get 0 when the second position is at the origin
You mean angle((x,y,z),(0,0,0))? Seems correct: dot and mag2 would be zero, so it's be 0/mag1 == 0. The vectors are represented by a single coord which would mean the arrow comes from (0,0,0) to that point. So (0,0,0) to (0,0,0) would be the 0 vector, which I don't even know what angle would be the correct answer in this case. I guess you'd have to handle this edge case before calling the func?

>and inverting 1 and 2 gives same result???
angle(a,b) == angle(b,a)

>with z coords 0 and y coords being the same but only x coords differing i get nonsensical values when i should get an equivalent of -90° or 90°
You mean angle((x1, yconst, 0), (x2, yconst, 0))? I don't think there is any values that makes that 90°, but I admit I haven't drawn it.
Anonymous No.106303296

>0/mag1 == 0
Ops, no. It would be 0/0 since its mag1*mag2 below the /. Which makes more sense. It's undefined behaviour. The 0 vector is not part of the domain of this function.

angle((x,y,0)(0,0,z)) will give 90° for any x,y and z.

I think that's do maker /diy/ kind of thing. I wouldn't know where to start.

Like polar coordinates? Makes sense. For 2D you'd have distance (trivial) plus one angle. Now for 3D you'd have two angles which anon alluded to. And they also differ angle(p1,p2) angle(p2,p1).

I wonder if that's what anon wants and he is struggling to tell us.

A truly Open hardware platform is the dream. But it would take someone with a lot of cash to burn and not afraid of being doxed to make it happen. The moment it was announced it would be attacked by all the major players in big tech as well. Imagine the shilling campaign that would come out against something like that.

This is how you know stuff like the Framework laptops aren't really want they claim to be. They have huge money behind them. None of the people helping to launch that type of thing would get behind a real open hardware workstation.

I could write at length about what such a computer should look like but it wouldn't fit into a post here and it'd be pure speculation. It'd also probably devolve into an argument about something we all know isn't going to happen anyway.

Just for starters you'd need several thousand dollars to set-up an LLC and foundation to fund, build and launch it. That doesn't include securing domain names, hosting and such. Last time I announced a project I was working on here I neglected to snag the 5 or so domains I needed for it. The next day someone bought all variations of the name I wanted to use and was asking thousands of dollars a piece of those domains. He did it just to spite me. Some people are just horrible like that.

But if you'd like me to muse about what an open hardware+OS on it looks like. Sure. But not right now.
