I don't know if I'm lazy or not, but the fact that I have to commit to downloading and running it before I can see what exactly it does is pretty off putting to me.
- shurcooL 13y agoAgree, I think having at least a screenshot is a must. Or even an animated gif if it's some interaction (e.g. see plug [1]) you're trying to present. [1] https://github.com/shurcooL/Slide#slide https://github.com/shurcooL/Slide#slide
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoThe only sites blocked in China that bother me are like dropbox and youtube. Suffice it to say, I see nothing on your github page, and all the links are broken.
- shanelja 13y agohttp://i40.tinypic.com/21dkpx.gif http://i40.tinypic.com/21dkpx.gif Re-uploaded the GIF file for him, hopefully this one loads for you.
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoTIL tinypic.com is blocked also :) CMCC wifi is a bit more strict than the other Chinese ISPs, they block imugr also while many other ISPs do not. My problems are admittedly very niche, and I will get to see everything when I'm at work tomorrow (if my VPN was working, I could see them now...drats). Thanks for the try though!
- simcop2387 13y agoHere, let me see if I can get blocked in china now: http://www.simcop2387.info/Slide_1.gif http://www.simcop2387.info/Slide_1.gif
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoYes, that works, thanks!
- shurcooL 13y agoWow, I didn't know that. So everything I host on Dropbox (and I host _everything_ on Dropbox) is unavailable in China?! Is this country-wide or ISP-specific?
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoYouTube, Dropbox, Facebook are nationwide blocks. Imgur, tinypic, media wiki etc...seem to be blocked by some ISPs. I'm obviously careful about this, there are good alternatives that work (for now) in china, e.g. Skydive rather than Dropbox. But even I have to we YouTube for video uploads.
- shurcooL 13y agoThanks for the heads up. That's pretty awful. I'm not going to stop using Dropbox over it, but it is upsetting to know so many people can't access my work posted there.
- ttflee 13y agoYou need a paid VPN account (, free ones works before they got too much attention and got blocked,) or other encrypted tunnels for HTTP payloads, in China. BTW, nytimes.com and other whistle-blowers also get blocked.
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoWe have a paid VPN account, it no longer works and we can't get a refund. It's like a game of cat and mouse, and I've kind of given up.
- moshberm 13y agoAdded it.
- muyuu 13y agoYou accelerate the mouse precisely in the points where I want to see the anomalies (when intersecting the table).
- shurcooL 13y agoThe object keeps sliding on its background surface as long as at least one of its pixels is visible, unless it encounters a collision that cannot be resolved otherwise. Once that's no longer the case, it pops forward (keeping the same spot under your mouse) until it is. There are 2 other videos where hopefully you can see this happening. Or, better yet, you can try it running it yourself on Windows or Mac.
- crcsmnky 13y agoA screenshot is a nice to have, or something that qualifies as a legitimate request, but it's not critical nor would I expect it to be off putting if not provided.
- moshberm 13y agoYou're right, sorry. I've gotten better at this sort of release since posting this repo. I'll add some screenshots to the project.
- moshberm 13y agoOk, added. Thanks for the feedback!
