28c3: The Science of Insecurity

12:45

^^ still listening but it's quite interesting

thanks for sharing <3

13:16

dfq is 28c3 btw? it a ccc channel?

13:16

ah ye it is

13:17

d

seems that the ddnet client does not recognise the difference between o and ø (edited)

16:26

but both names get points independently

@Cøke all names get points indepently, but similar names on the same server are tagged to differentiate them

its not similar

16:37

my name got a ø xd

16:38

it would be annoying if I had to kick someone every time because I can't finish with my name

16:40

and its not the same with similar names like Coke and coke

it would be better if it was "(1) Cøke" instead of "(1) Coke"

why?

his name is Cøke, right?

16:42

so "(1) Coke" is a bit misleading

no, the other person is the second to join, with the name "Coke"

16:42

which is why the second person got (1) Coke

u dont understand me, its only with ø

oh, I misunderstood

Ø work (edited)

and thought it changed ø to o as well

ddnet groups similiar looking letters together

16:43

upper case i (I) and lower case L (l) are grouped together for exapmle

16:44

it thinks that "C" and "c" dont look alike

Coke and coke work, CØke and Cøke work, Coke and Cøke not xD

yea, it says 'o' is similar to 'ø', but not 'Ø'

16:44

imo that reasonable

CØke and COke also work

16:45

???

but yea, thats annoying when you got similar names

oh no not working

ddnet doesnt go by look, it has an accesses a dictionary that tells it which look alike

16:46

*it accesses

I never noticed this 'bug' in my entire playing time

16:46

maybe its a new bug

its not really a bug

16:47

its a feature and tries to differentiate names

16:47

that is supposed to help when for example a person should be kicked, but in the vote menu you cant make out which person you want to kick because the name is so similar

16:48

huge problem in for example tf2

its not possible to kick him when i get the (1)

16:50

i cant, and other ppl who want kick him, kick me xD (edited)

trolls will 100% abuse it troll

troll

man it triggers me so much that clangd thinks headers under base/ are C and not C++ and gives me errors on vim

17:02

angrybork

i think its always been like that

17:04

i cant name my dummy Iouis

17:04

cuz I and l look alike

but o and ø not

17:05

its like p and q

db

yea i tried łouis and louis before and it didnt work either

this problem should be fixed, otherwise blockers will take advantage of it and the wrong people will be kicked

17:11

soplo tried to vote Coke and i was voted monkaS

monkaS

(edited)

how will the wrong people be kicked

there is problem with changing custom resolution, everytime I open game I need to turn off full screen and turn it on again after opening game to make custom resolution work, like it doesnt save everytime you restart game. A lot of people using custom res and its a bit annoying

17:27

any ideas ?

@louis we tried it, there was Coke and (1)Cøke.. if u try to kick Coke it votes (1)Cøke (edited)

@Cøke we did that intentionally because there are cyrillic characters that look exactly like latin alphabet ones

18:48

so there could be too players whose names look identical and it's super annoying on server

18:48

it's been this way for years

18:49

This is known as Unicode Confusables: https://util.unicode.org/UnicodeJsps/confusables.jsp

18:50

Your name for example and all confusables for each character: https://util.unicode.org/UnicodeJsps/confusables.jsp?a=Coke&r=None

18:50

and trolls who call themselves similarly to prevent you from using your name could also just use your exact name

18:51

(this website is not complete, sometimes combinations of characters together can look like one character)

[ddnet/ddnet] Pull request closed: #3367 Rename lock and semaphore classes to match current naming

shouldn't there be a solution to this? as I said, the wrong players get kicked if one is called Coke and one (1)Cøke

that's a bug, can you open one?

[ddnet/ddnet] Pull request opened: #3368 Only render visible entities

Some entities like pickups are always sent to the client, and the client will currently try to render them even if they are off screen. I'm not sure if using hardcoded values for the maximum item size is the correct way. For some entities it can vary depending on the game.png, or on font size and namelength for nameplates, so I tried to find the maximum values and added an extra margin of 2-3 tiles.
