Question: Is there any faster way to run benchmarks on pypy/module/cpyext module?
by hzy15610046011 29 May '23

Hello pypy experts! What I want to do is to run a performance test on the cpyext module. The translation&compilation procedure took about 1 hour on my computer. After I modifying some code( just a slight modification under pypy/modules/cpyext), the whole translation procedure seemed to restart completely, taking another one hour. I found pytest could do unit test, but it seems to be run on a different interpreter such as Cpython2 or another pre-built pypy interpreter. So I was wondering if there is any way to run performance benchmarks partially, without compiling the whole project, honestly thanks! -- zy hou

Re: Injecting an exception into another thread
by Audrey Dutcher 09 May '23

Hi! Sorry for the delay, I didn't realize I needed to be subscribed to the mailing list to participate in conversations. My use case is that I have a gui application which runs arbitrary tasks as background threads, and needs to provide a cancel button to interrupt them. The tasks are often legacy code and/or are very difficult to find reasonable points to insert checks for interruption. Another use case would be implementing a python shell in a gui. If you want to maintain responsiveness while commands execute, they must be able to run in another thread (or another process, but this is not ideal if the shell is supposed to interact with the internals of your application). Interrupting lines with ctrl-c requires being able to send an exception to worker threads. Hope this helps! Thanks, - Audrey

New release cycle started
by Matti Picus 04 May '23

04 May '23

I think the py3.10 branch has reached a point where we can start a new release cycle. We last released Dec 29, 2022, and soon after created the py3.10 branch. Work on this progressed quickly, due in no small part to earlier work done on the interpreter/parser to handle the new 3.10 features. Those who read the release notes will notice I am looking for someone to take over as release manager. I have been releasing PyPy since 2014, it is time to pass the job on. Anyone interested could pair-program with me through this release cycle, so now is the time to volunteer. Matti

Let's Spice It Up! How About Some New Ringtones and Alert Sounds?
by lefflerhirtheu63a＠gmail.com 12 Apr '23

12 Apr '23

It's 2021, and we're constantly on our phones. Whether it's for work, socializing, or just passing the time, we're always staring at our screens. One aspect of our phone usage that we often overlook is our ringtones and alert sounds. These sounds are an essential part of our phone experience and can sometimes get repetitive or annoying. In this blog post, we'll talk about how to spice up your phone's sound system with some new ringtones and alert sounds. 1. Explore the variety First things first, your phone probably comes with a vast selection of ringtones and alert sounds. However, most people just stick to the default sounds without realizing the variety that's out there. Take some time to explore the sound library in your phone settings and see if there's anything you like. You might find something that fits your style and that you hadn't considered before. 2. Scour the internet If your phone's sound library doesn't cut it, or if you're just looking for something unique, there are plenty of websites and apps dedicated to providing ringtones and alert sounds. Some popular ones include Zedge, Mobile9, and Ringtone Maker. These websites offer thousands of options, from popular songs to sound effects to animal noises. You're sure to find something that tickles your fancy. 3. Create your own If you're feeling creative, you can always make your own ringtones and alert sounds. All you need is a sound recording app and a bit of imagination. You can record your voice or any sound around you and turn it into a personalized ringtone. This is especially fun if you have kids or pets, as you can make a ringtone out of their giggles or barks. 4. Mix it up Why stick to just one ringtone or alert sound? Most phones allow you to set different ringtones for different contacts, so take advantage of that feature. You can assign different ringtones to your friends, family, and coworkers so that you know who's calling without even looking at your phone. You can also set different alert sounds for different apps so that you know what's happening without even opening them. This way, you can mix things up and keep your phone experience fresh. 5. Remember to be considerate Lastly, while it's essential to have fun with your ringtones and alert sounds, don't forget to be considerate of those around you. Don't set your phone sound too loud, especially in public places such as libraries or restaurants. It's also wise to avoid offensive or explicit sounds, as they might offend or embarrass those around you. Be mindful of others, and you can enjoy your new sounds without inconveniencing anyone. Get free ringtones now: https://dzwoneknatelefon.com/ Conclusion In conclusion, your phone's ringtones and alert sounds can get boring and tedious, but spicing them up can make your phone experience more enjoyable. Whether you explore the variety already available in your phone or find something unique on the internet, there are plenty of options out there to match your style. You can also create your own personalized sounds and mix it up with different ringtones for different contacts and apps. Just remember to be considerate of others around you and have fun with it!

Are Nintendo DS Servers Still Up?
by patrickgraham2901＠gmail.com 11 Apr '23

11 Apr '23

The Nintendo DS was first released in 2004, and it quickly became a fan favorite. Since then, it has become one of the best-selling handheld consoles in history, with more than 150 million units sold worldwide. One of the great features of the DS was its online multiplayer capability, which allowed players to compete against each other over the internet. But now, nearly two decades after its release, fans are wondering: Are Nintendo DS servers still up? The short answer is no, the Nintendo DS servers are no longer up. In 2014, Nintendo officially ended support for online multiplayer for the DS and Wii systems. At this time, they shut down the servers for games like Mario Kart DS, Animal Crossing: Wild World, and Metroid Prime Hunters. While players are still able to play these games in single-player mode, the online multiplayer capabilities have been lost. However, there are still some ways to enjoy online multiplayer with your Nintendo DS. Some games, such as Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, still have online capabilities through the use of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. This service was originally shut down in 2014, but it was brought back in 2020 by a group of fans who created an emulator called AltWFC. This allows players to connect and play with each other online again. Another option for DS players is using third-party services like Wiimmfi, which can simulate online play for games that no longer have official online support. While the use of these services is not endorsed by Nintendo, it is an option for players who want to continue playing their favorite games online. It’s worth noting that even though the Nintendo DS servers are no longer up, there are still plenty of great games available to play on the console. Classic titles like New Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, and Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story are still just as enjoyable to play today as they were when they were first released. While the official Nintendo DS servers are no longer up, there are still ways for players to enjoy online multiplayer with their favorite DS games. Third-party services and fan-made emulators allow players to connect and play together, while classic single-player games remain just as enjoyable as ever. Despite the loss of some features, the Nintendo DS remains a beloved console that has brought joy to millions of gamers around the world.
