08:51 [MTMatrix] <localhost> How i can read minetest command line options from mod directly without insecure env? It possible? I just want detect --terminal option
09:00 sfan5      do not ask modding questions here
09:03 [MTMatrix] <localhost> but... command line options is core functional
09:06 [MTMatrix] <localhost> okay, sorry. I just not understand how separate core and modding question...
09:09 celeron55  the answer is you can't. but yes, this channel is for engine development and for nothing else
09:09 celeron55  now if you propose that feature to be added, then you are talking about engine development
09:10 celeron55  (probably best to go to github for that, though)
09:17 [MTMatrix] <localhost> thanks. Possible add this feature to minetest? eg. minetest.commandlineopts and return table {terminal = true, someoption = "abc"}
09:23 [MTMatrix] <localhost> It maybe useful not only me, some others modder can use this 🤔 Maybe start vote on forum? But sorry if is it crap feature
09:24 [MTMatrix] <localhost> ah sorry, this offtop again...
09:32 ROllerozxa what would be the reason for a mod to access command-line arguments the engine was called with?
09:44 [MTMatrix] <localhost> interact with admin via terminal first reason. eg. detecting when terminal enabled
09:45 [MTMatrix] <localhost> if terminal not enabled interaction canceled
09:50 ROllerozxa (and for risk of sounding like a broken record... why would a mod need to know if --terminal is enabled)
09:50 ROllerozxa there's ways for an admin to send commands if prompted (assuming this is what you need) even when --terminal is disabled, such as with szutil_consocket
10:14 TenPlus1   Hi folks
10:14 TenPlus1   are there any devs available ?  I need a little help with initial_properties in entities

15:17 erle       i wonder what curl 8.4.0 on October 11 will bring as the severity HIGH CVE
15:19 celeron55  is it related to the recent python one, something about mTLS
15:21 celeron55  like, if someone was experimenting with this using curl, and found something in curl itself https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2023-40217
15:30 erle       > bypass of the TLS handshake in certain instances
15:30 erle       oh lol
15:30 erle       good that minetest does not use TLS for servers, so nothing can be bypassed hehehe
15:33 celeron55  bare minimum security gives a bare minimum attack surface. good tactic. just don't criticize your government in the chat
15:35 erle       i think there was actually a CSM for encrypted chat
16:04 [MTMatrix] <localhost> oh noes..
17:09 zovtig234  is there any way I can disable devtest while not using a release? I need to use newer irrlichtmt for sdl wayland support, but this doesn't allow running the game normally. I tried using "set(DEVELOPMENT_BUILD FALSE)" but that didn't seem to work. Sorry if this is off-topic
17:10 erle       delete the devtest folder?
17:14 zovtig234  yeah, that seems to do it, thx
