Time Nick Message 00:00 dafull97 ShadowNinja, ^ 00:05 dafull97 VanessaE, you can do clustering with Ethernet alone? 00:06 VanessaE yes 00:06 VanessaE it's unideal, but possible. 00:08 dafull97 what do you normally use? 00:11 VanessaE well I don't cluster, but I just have gigE between the two PCs 00:11 VanessaE I used to use distcc if that matters : 00:11 VanessaE :P 00:12 dafull97 English please? hahaha, explain 00:12 dafull97 =) please 00:12 VanessaE gigE: gigabit ethernet. distcc: distributed C compiler, for using multiple PCs to compile stuff 00:13 dafull97 ok, thanks... havnt used alot of C/C++ and i thought gigE meant that, wasnt sure 00:14 VanessaE sure 00:14 dafull97 will python be good for networking and all, im wanting to be network admin or Network Engineer when i get out of high school and college 00:15 OldCoder dafull97, Yes 00:15 OldCoder dafull97, You must learn several other languages too 00:16 OldCoder dafull97, Perl PHP5 Python HTML5 CSS3 JS some Java and a few others 00:16 OldCoder Many are very similar 00:16 dafull97 yes, i am working on it 00:16 OldCoder Good 00:16 kahrl network admin in a unix environment? bash is probably what you'll be encountering most 00:16 dafull97 Oldcoder you know about clustering and you in networking 00:16 kahrl or some other shell 00:17 dafull97 OldCoder, ^^ 00:23 * dafull97 is going afk for a few mins 00:30 dafull97 ok im back 00:31 dafull97 VanessaE, can you do me a favor 00:32 VanessaE hm? 00:33 dafull97 will you tell me the last board i was talking about? i got on a different computer 00:35 VanessaE https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO/open-source-hardware 00:35 VanessaE you were leaning toward that one over the RPi. 00:35 dafull97 thanks, yes i know 00:35 dafull97 i couldnt remember the name totally 00:35 Menche you can look at the chat history at http://irc.minetest.ru/minetest/today 00:36 dafull97 ohh, yea i forgot that 00:42 dafull97 VanessaE, Clustering shares video cards? or no? 00:42 Megaf dafull97, Hi there 00:42 Exio4 i hate reallife 00:42 Exio4 why is it so busy 00:43 dafull97 Megaf, what up? got some questions for you... =) 00:43 Megaf ok 00:43 Megaf shoot 00:43 Megaf =) 00:44 dafull97 so your the one with the raspberry pi servers correct? 00:44 Megaf yep 00:44 Megaf dafull97, VanessaE https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7603 00:45 VanessaE dafull97: it could share video computing resources e.g. GPGPU/OpenCL or whatever it's called, if the clustering software allows for it, but not general video card performance. 00:48 dafull97 so if i conneted a monitor to the master would it have better video performance, such as video memory? 00:49 Megaf dafull97, ok, lets start from the begiining 00:49 Megaf what do you want? 00:49 dafull97 im thinking about getting a board like raspberry pi, https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO/open-source-hardware and cluster them together and use as minetest server 00:50 VanessaE dafull97: no, it would not, unless the program you are running is CPU-bound AND capable of full multi-threading. 00:50 dafull97 mpi, would that be one? 00:50 VanessaE but as a minetest server, it would be mostly pointless 00:50 Megaf dafull97, not worth it 00:50 VanessaE the server is not multi-threaded enough to work well under those conditions 00:50 troller dafull97, will ok with 0 players 00:51 dafull97 troller, stop... 00:51 troller stop what? 00:51 Megaf dafull97, use a single Raspberry, it will do really ok with 6 players 00:51 Megaf using the minimal game 00:51 Megaf dafull97, join to my server and see for yourself 00:51 troller i use odroid. ant its ok with lisuid_finite=1 ;) 00:51 dafull97 i cant right at the moment but i will later 00:52 dafull97 Megaf, why would it not be worth clustering? 00:52 EvergreenTree New mod: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7637 00:52 EvergreenTree \o/ 00:52 Megaf dafull97, clusters doesnt work like that 00:52 VanessaE dafull97: because the server is not multithreaded enough to work for that. 00:52 Megaf dafull97, and minetest server is not really multithread yet 00:53 dafull97 ok so it would work that good? 00:53 Megaf it depends on what you want 00:53 Megaf whats your objective 00:53 Menche it would probably only be able to use the one master board 00:53 Megaf and if you have an objective 00:53 VanessaE a good cluster needs to have more network bandwidth between its nodes than what any two random processes could possibly want to use to send data to one another, and the program must be fully multithreaded. 00:53 harrison everybody wants to rule the world 00:54 VanessaE Megaf: to run a fast server on minimal hardware. 00:54 Megaf fast is relative, 00:54 Megaf Raspberry Pi is pretty fast for minetest server, really responsive 00:54 Megaf up to 6 players and with the minimal game 00:55 Megaf that the 256 MB of ram version and without overclock 00:55 Menche would probably run minetest-classic even better 00:56 ShadowNinja EvergreenTree: What do you use to generate the bedrock layer? My bedrock mod? 00:57 dafull97 Megaf, idk... i need some time to think... haha 00:57 EvergreenTree Just minetest.register_ore 00:57 EvergreenTree I did it from scratch 00:57 MinetestBot GIT: proller@github.com commited to minetest/minetest: Masterserver show privs and js autoload 4a8a50a2a2 2013-11-03T16:56:39-08:00 http://git.io/xaE44w 00:57 ShadowNinja EvergreenTree: And the screenshot doen't seem to show anything specific to the mod. 00:57 Menche what's the purpose of blocking digging below -1000? 00:57 EvergreenTree There isn't anything specific 00:58 EvergreenTree The sword has a larger wieldview 00:58 ShadowNinja EvergreenTree: Mine is better. :-) It uses the VM. And it generates at -30914, the limit. 00:58 EvergreenTree You can place logs with 6d facedir 00:58 troller Menche, if using indev - more huge caves 00:59 Megaf I little help would be much appreciated on my rpi server to build a castle 00:59 EvergreenTree I'll add something to settings.txt so you can configure how low the layer is 00:59 Menche troller, EvergreenTree's game *blocks* digging below -1000 00:59 EvergreenTree IT's not a game, its a mod 00:59 dafull97 is minecraft multithreaded? 00:59 Megaf dafull97, so you want a server that burns little energy and costs little money 00:59 EvergreenTree And like I said, I'll add a setting for that later 00:59 Megaf thats it? 00:59 dafull97 yea, basically 00:59 VanessaE EvergreenTree: ah so you liked that lib_6d code eh? :) 01:00 EvergreenTree Yep[ 01:00 EvergreenTree *Yep 01:00 Megaf dafull97, you can use Raspberry Pi yes, 01:00 VanessaE just saw your 'tweaks' post 01:00 Megaf the one with 512 MB of ram 01:00 dafull97 i was thinking https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO/open-source-hardware 01:00 dafull97 1gb ram 01:00 dafull97 and cheaper 01:00 Megaf dafull97, then put a Class 10 SDCard and a fast USB thumb drive 01:01 Megaf dafull97, thats cheap 01:01 dafull97 the board? 01:01 EvergreenTree Anything you dislike about minetest, I'll try and make a fix for it in my mod 01:01 Megaf dafull97, yep 01:01 EvergreenTree *minetest_game 01:01 dafull97 Megaf, ik 01:02 dafull97 Megaf, that why i want it.... and i was gonna get 2 and cluster it 01:02 Megaf well, just forget about cluster 01:02 dafull97 it would help to have experiance too... im wanting to get into networking after college 01:02 harrison EvergreenTree: can you make it raytraced instead of rasterized? 01:03 Megaf if you want cluster, then you need a 64 bit server with gigabit ethernet 01:03 EvergreenTree No, something I can do in a mod. :P 01:03 dafull97 64-bit? why 64-bit? 01:03 troller btw big help to old hardware = https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/895/files 01:05 Megaf troller, now we just need an easy way to use that 01:05 troller its already here https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7033 01:10 troller building minetest +minetestserver on odroid x2: real 6m13.652s 01:10 troller 01:10 troller show me pi result 8) 01:19 Peacock pi result http://i500.listal.com/image/1189040/500full.jpg 01:24 EvergreenTree Hey VanessaE, what would you suggest for a mid range CPU? (less than 130 USD) 01:24 VanessaE I wouldn't know, to be honest. 01:24 VanessaE my Phenom II X6 1055T was inexpensive enough 01:24 VanessaE but I got it as part of a package deal 01:25 EvergreenTree Does it server you pretty well? 01:25 EvergreenTree *serve 01:25 VanessaE oh yes, for the most part quite well 01:25 VanessaE it's only where Minetest is involved that it sometimes lacks a bit :P 01:25 EvergreenTree What problems did you have with it? 01:25 VanessaE best to start at pricewatch, http://www.pricewatch.com/cpu/ 01:26 VanessaE the only problems I ever have are all software-related. you know, inefficient code and the like :) 01:30 EvergreenTree Would you say an Intel Core i3-3220 would be a good choice? 01:30 VanessaE I'm afraid I couldn't say at all 01:30 EvergreenTree OR would the amd phenom be better? 01:30 EvergreenTree hmm 01:30 EvergreenTree Anyone have an intel core i3? 01:31 * ShadowNinja has a i5. 01:32 ShadowNinja "Phenom" is far too unsecific, some of those will be better than some i7s, some worse than some i3s. 01:32 ShadowNinja (Assuming you've decided on sandy/ivy bridge if you chose intel) 01:33 VanessaE he's comparing to my Phenom II X6 1055T I guess 01:33 troller 20 bots on odroid, ant it still playable 01:33 ShadowNinja Um, I think yours is better... 01:34 ShadowNinja troller: Maybe commit the lag redistribution patch? 01:34 troller i'm ready 01:34 EvergreenTree VanessaE, what kind of software problems did you have? 01:35 VanessaE EvergreenTree: nothing I could blame on the hardware. 01:35 EvergreenTree Okay, good 01:35 VanessaE I was trying to make a joke that Minetest tends to be slow in places :) 01:37 EvergreenTree Ah 01:38 troller slowest part now is mapgen 01:39 troller but slill playable if not use fast 01:39 troller who have ipv6 - can try 01:40 troller my server at top 8) 01:40 EvergreenTree sfan5, update your incorrectly formated mod topic 01:40 EvergreenTree *I mean, run your bot that finds incorrectly formated topics and reports them 01:45 ShadowNinja EvergreenTree: +1 01:45 OldCoder R 01:45 OldCoder Sorry I missed his question 01:46 OldCoder I have so many channels I no longer see highlighting 01:48 ShadowNinja OldCoder: Use tab view is you aren't already and enable notifications/beeps. 01:48 ShadowNinja if* 01:48 OldCoder Tab View doesn't work for 70 tabs though? 01:48 OldCoder And sound not applicable if come and go from PC 01:49 OldCoder We need an IRC client that displays tabs at the top 01:49 OldCoder based on criteria 01:49 OldCoder Maybe I can patch one 02:26 EvergreenTree Lol, I go onto ##hardware and I almost get torn limb from limb by the guy who stole my nick 02:27 VanessaE heh 02:28 VanessaE have you tried complaining to freenode staff? 02:28 VanessaE noting he registered the nick only 20 hours ago 02:29 EvergreenTree They thought I was a troll, and I stole his nick 02:29 EvergreenTree almost got into a flamewar 02:29 EvergreenTree Nah, not really worth it 02:31 EvergreenTree lol, didn't notice OldCoder was on #hardware 02:31 OldCoder Hi! 02:31 OldCoder I am not there 02:32 OldCoder Is there an OldCoder in #hardware? 02:32 * OldCoder is confused 02:32 EvergreenTree Yes 02:32 OldCoder ! 02:32 * OldCoder joins #hardware 02:32 OldCoder There is only me 02:32 * OldCoder remains confused 02:34 VanessaE ## 02:35 OldCoder VanessaE, ? 02:35 * OldCoder is even more confused 02:35 VanessaE I believe he means ##hardware 02:35 OldCoder No 02:35 VanessaE two #'s 02:35 OldCoder I see him in #hardware 02:36 VanessaE oh 02:37 OldCoder No you are correct 02:38 OldCoder There is a ##hardware and I see people I know there 02:38 OldCoder But only one of me and I have been online for nearly 10 hours 02:38 OldCoder As the nick is registered, I am not sure how he could have seen "me" there 02:39 * VanessaE shrugs 02:41 VanessaE OldCoder: there are plantlife and farming_plus updates you will need to pull in btw 02:45 OldCoder VanessaE, I will do so with alacrity 02:45 OldCoder Who has farming_plus now, again? 02:46 VanessaE pilzadam does, but somehow I've been elected to maintain it :) 02:46 VanessaE https://github.com/PilzAdam/farming_plus.git 02:46 VanessaE er, maybe you want the ssh link. git@github.com:PilzAdam/farming_plus.git 02:48 dafull97 hey 02:49 ShadowNinja https is better for just pulling as no certs are needed. 02:49 VanessaE hi 02:49 ShadowNinja Hello. 02:52 dafull97 Does minecraft support multithread? 02:52 VanessaE no clue; minetest does but only to a limited degree 02:58 zat It is dangerous walking around here alone, take one of these: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1456625_254627107994426_964071069_n.jpg 02:59 dafull97 VanessaE, clustering would that share RAM usage? 03:00 VanessaE dafull97: to a degree, but just forget about it :) 03:00 VanessaE zat: ha! are those pokémon at the bottom? :) 03:01 zat yes those are called pokémon lol 03:01 dafull97 nah, im wanting it to use both devices RAM so it would be like 1 machine some what 03:01 VanessaE dafull97: forget it. it ain't worth the effort. 03:01 dafull97 well im wanting experience in it for later 03:02 dafull97 if i could manage to do that i could have a 2gb ram server for minetest would make awesome performance 03:02 VanessaE it won't work for minetest 03:02 VanessaE it isn't multithreaded enough 03:03 ShadowNinja dafull97: Um, 2gb doesn't mean "awesome performance". 03:04 dafull97 ik, but compared to a 512mg ram 03:04 ShadowNinja dafull97: It might even be slower because of the netio. 03:04 VanessaE indeed not. I have 16GB on my machine and that doesn't really help the servers much at all 03:04 dafull97 i have 30mbps 03:04 VanessaE (it's helpful for the client though) 03:04 dafull97 i would make with 1gb eth 03:04 VanessaE nope 03:04 VanessaE you need CPU power, and a lot of it. 03:04 ShadowNinja dafull97: That has nothing to do with the connection between nodes, unless they will be in different locations. 03:05 VanessaE that means a single, fast processor perhaps with 2-4 cores. 03:06 ShadowNinja dafull97: Point is: Well... that this is pointless. 03:07 dafull97 why would it be pointless? i honestly dont understand why... not trying sound mean, etc. 03:07 dafull97 just wondering 03:07 ShadowNinja dafull97: Because it won't be faster. In fact it will be slower. 03:09 us_0gb Did I just flash off the network for a bit? 03:09 VanessaE us_0gb: nope 03:10 dafull97 ShadowNinja, can you please explain like why it would be? 03:10 us_0gb Hmm. I seem to have on the other IRC network. I also lost connection to my meeting during a critical argument. 03:10 ShadowNinja dafull97: I cannot parse that sentence. 03:11 VanessaE ShadowNinja: why would it be slower with a cluster, he means. 03:11 dafull97 yes ^^ 03:11 ShadowNinja dafull97: Because of NetIO. 03:14 dafull97 true, but it would give it more RAM, and it would still be processing on the master? 03:15 VanessaE it doesn't work like that. 03:15 VanessaE programs have to send data to one another and to RAM, and that takes upwards of hundreds of megabytes/second to a few gigs a second. 03:15 VanessaE that's something a network device just can't do. 03:15 us_0gb There's this thing called a bottle neck. If one part of the system is too limiting, it doesn't matter how well the rest of the system works. 03:16 dafull97 ohhh, ok i see so not enoguh cpu power to do that effiently? 03:16 us_0gb Lots of RAM, no way to send enough data to it to actually make use of the RAM. 03:17 dafull97 efficiently* 03:17 VanessaE dafull97: not enough network bandwidt 03:17 us_0gb I don't know the situation, but I don't think it has to do with the CPU. 03:17 VanessaE gig ethernet can only sustain 100MB/sec and that's if you can keep it full. 03:18 dafull97 really??? i tohught it could contain 1gb... since it is a gig eth, hahaha.... welll that is odd 03:19 VanessaE gigaBIT. not gigabyte. 03:19 dafull97 ohhh, hahaha i always wondered what the difference was 03:19 VanessaE the rule of thumb is 10 bits to one byte (including network overhead) 03:19 dafull97 ok... 03:20 VanessaE (though on modern networks it's very close to 8:1) 03:20 dafull97 so it isnt worth if you jsut do 2 clustered together 03:20 VanessaE nope 03:20 VanessaE even if you had 10 of them it wouldn't be worth it. 03:20 us_0gb It could be a fun experiment though, if you just want to learn to cluster. 03:21 dafull97 idk about that VanessaE, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLJuJw1eN94 03:21 VanessaE clustering is intended for applications where all processes being spawned consume roughly equal resources - say a rendering job. 03:21 ShadowNinja But Minetest isn't a good app to test it with. 03:21 VanessaE "three node supercomputer" 03:21 VanessaE hah 03:21 us_0gb Yeah, probably not Minetest. 03:21 VanessaE no. 03:22 dafull97 they named it that becasue they now have over 60 03:22 dafull97 that was a project they worked on 03:22 dafull97 look at the performance differance between 1 and 3 03:23 VanessaE no need. 03:23 VanessaE supercomputing/clustering only works well for applications designed for it, 03:23 dafull97 ok, so it wouldnt share ram? 03:23 VanessaE that's why Pixar runs a render "farm". they have a bunch of PC's running the same software, all of them clustered together to get the job done much faster 03:23 VanessaE no. 03:24 VanessaE I forget, how big is their farm now? 03:24 VanessaE 12,500 CPU cores. 03:25 dafull97 wow! 03:25 dafull97 dang 03:25 VanessaE uh huh. and they run software that's designed to scale like that 03:25 dafull97 so what is clustering used for mostly now 03:25 VanessaE so it takes full advantage. 03:25 VanessaE stuff like that ^^^^, or folding@home, or compiling, etc. 03:27 VanessaE almost anything where you can divide a job up into discrete units that don't depend on one another and don't require a lot of cross-communication could benefit. Minetest is not one of those things. 03:28 dafull97 so it would be best just to stick with buying one with suffient ram itself 03:28 VanessaE you could hand off a thousand frames of a movie to a thousand separate cores, for example, and let each core render that frame, then collate the results. Keep feeding frames to cores as they become idle. 03:28 VanessaE you need CPU power, not RAM. 03:28 VanessaE 512MB is enough, 03:29 VanessaE what you need is a single, very fast CPU with 2 or so cores. 03:29 dafull97 would a Raspberry pi or * https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/A20-OLinuXino-MICRO/open-source-hardware * 03:29 dafull97 be faster and better for minetest/minecraft server 03:30 VanessaE buy both and see which performs better? 03:31 VanessaE turn the other into a router or something :P 03:32 Exio4 VanessaE: about the threaded part, there are a lot of things that could be "threadized" but the job for doing that is.. way too big 03:32 VanessaE yep I know 03:32 VanessaE the eternal problem with SMP :-/ 03:32 Exio4 nope 03:32 VanessaE nope? 03:33 Exio4 it is because the program wasn't thought was a "multithreaded one" 03:33 VanessaE eh, well maybe 03:33 Menche would making it perform better on more cores make it perform worse on a single core machine? 03:33 dafull97 yea i might, Megaf raspberry pi performs nicely im on his server now 03:33 VanessaE but some problems just can't be divided up reasonably. 03:33 VanessaE Menche: probably not enough to become visible 03:33 VanessaE modern OS's are pretty good at delegating processes to cores 03:33 Exio4 Menche: the overhead would be too small 03:33 VanessaE (or to one core) 03:36 Exio4 i'm pretty c55 never thought about minetest being played for more than two guys in nonwhere that he knew 03:36 Exio4 pretty sure* 03:36 VanessaE haha 03:36 Exio4 no? :P 03:36 VanessaE no. :) 03:37 Exio4 did he say, some time ago, "I will make the minecraft-like game, with modding support and in C++!"? 03:38 VanessaE idk, I wasn't here :) 03:38 VanessaE but I'm pretty sure he had some idea that people would use it :) 03:38 Exio4 was k4hrl the one that coded the lua-support? 03:38 * VanessaE pokes kahrl 03:38 Exio4 nah 03:38 Exio4 bad girl, it was just curiosity and lazyness from my side :P 03:39 Exio4 for not looking around 03:39 VanessaE hah 03:39 VanessaE I ain't afraid to ping him. He has the option of not answering :) 03:41 kahrl nah, c55 coded it, I just moved over the crafting recipes 03:42 Exio4 really? 03:43 kahrl almost :p 03:48 kahrl I did code the whole itemdef/craftdef manager and stuff like that but adding the lua interpreter was c55 03:49 OldCoder VanessaE, It look like I'm using Zeg9's farming plus ATM. Will things break if I continue to use that one? 03:49 Exio4 ah 03:50 Peacock farming ATM... money that grows on trees? wicked! :D 03:50 OldCoder Heh 03:54 VanessaE yes, things will break. 03:54 VanessaE use pilzadam's. 03:55 Peacock but be sure to buy him dinner and a movie before using him :P 03:55 VanessaE a function it depends on was changed in minetest_game's farming. pilzadam's has the fix, zeg9's does not. 03:55 VanessaE haha 03:56 OldCoder VanessaE, t y 03:56 us_0gb Does anyone here know how Minetest weather works? 03:57 * VanessaE pokes troller 03:57 VanessaE he does ;) 03:57 Peacock black magic i suspect :p 03:57 us_0gb Okay, thanks! I'll make a note to ask him next time I see him. 03:58 us_0gb Peacock: More specifically, I need to know what to do about weather, and how to make use of it. Not the literal method in which it works. 03:58 us_0gb Most computers run using black magic. That's common knowledge. 03:58 Peacock i think you need to have finite on 03:59 VanessaE us_0gb: and magic smoke ;) 03:59 dafull97 VanessaE, i may go ahead and get 2 boards and cluster them and use them for several things 03:59 us_0gb Finite? As in finite liquid? Drats. No weather for me then. 03:59 dafull97 then build them up to i get like 30, haha 03:59 VanessaE us_0gb: at any rate it depends on an extra mod, and yes finite lquids I think. 03:59 dafull97 maybe host one as a router/DCHP 04:00 Peacock no need for router/dchp, IP-over-pidgeon is the wave of the future 04:00 us_0gb VanessaE: I'm writing the modules though. Most of the ones I'm using. Needing extra code won't be an issue if I know what needs to be added. 04:01 us_0gb Any idea why weather would depend on liquid finateness? It seems to involve freezing and melting. 04:01 VanessaE https://github.com/proller/minetest-mod-weather/tree/weather 04:01 VanessaE you need that 04:01 VanessaE plus the engine patches 04:02 VanessaE and you have to turn it on in your config also 04:02 VanessaE (the feature, not the mod) 04:02 us_0gb The copy I'm developing on is from sometime today, though not the latest. 04:03 VanessaE probably best to use proller's "next" fork 04:03 VanessaE https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7033 04:04 * dafull97 is about to goto sleep 04:04 us_0gb Hmm. I'm trying to make something that will be used on main Minetest. Would developing with a fork be helpful to that? 04:04 Peacock goto's are not permitted 04:04 us_0gb Good night, dafull97. 04:04 OldCoder dafull97, Night. dafull97 You had a question for me earlier? 04:04 OldCoder VanessaE, Zeg9 suggests his craft guide is much improved over others. But he notes... 04:05 OldCoder that it will leave unknown blocks 04:05 VanessaE us_0gb: it might, because his patches will probably go into mainline sooner or later, though when is uncertain. 04:05 OldCoder Is there consensus about whether or not to use Zeg9 craft guide? 04:05 VanessaE OldCoder: well I use Unified Inventory, which has a crafting guide also 04:05 Peacock which craft guide works da best? 04:05 dafull97 OldCoder, i did, are you in networking 04:06 us_0gb Cloud hight? That's settable? I need to fix my cosmic module then, it assumes the default height. 04:06 VanessaE us_0gb: idk, is it? 04:06 VanessaE last I knew that was a client-side feature only? 04:07 us_0gb THat module you linked me to uses it. THough then again, that doesn't make it a real setting, necessarily. 04:07 VanessaE hm, maybe it works now :) 04:07 OldCoder dafull97, I have done a lot of networking projects 04:07 OldCoder And I am working on a Cloud Service presently 04:08 OldCoder I started in networking, technically, about 37 years ago 04:08 us_0gb VanessaE: According to the example conf, yeah, it's a client setting. I don't know why a server module would be using it. 04:08 VanessaE maybe proller implemented it 04:08 dafull97 OldCoder, really? could you help me in networking? i asked VanessaE already but the more help the better 04:08 OldCoder dafull97, what is it that you need? 04:08 OldCoder A basic understanding? Not too difficult 04:09 OldCoder I believe you can code network scripts in Lua 04:09 OldCoder as well as Perl and Python 04:09 dafull97 OldCoder, well, in overall just assistance if i need it 04:10 VanessaE OldCoder: he wants help with outside-of-minetest network e.g. hardware/driver level 04:10 OldCoder Driver level? Huh 04:10 dafull97 yes, and coding networks itself... =D 04:10 OldCoder All the way down to registers? 04:11 us_0gb It doesn't make sense to use that setting though, as a single client/server machine could want different settings. 04:11 OldCoder dafull97, Big field. Ask questions later on if they occur to you. 04:11 VanessaE OldCoder: he wants to cluster two or more Raspberry Pis together 04:11 OldCoder Ah! 04:11 us_0gb Client settings should not interfere with what the server is doing. 04:11 OldCoder I will not be much use with that 04:11 OldCoder But dafull97 feel free to ask about TCP/IP and server client in general 04:11 VanessaE us_0gb: I can see an argument for it: different planet, different limit to cloud altitude, ergo different actual placement of them 04:12 dafull97 OldCoder what is your input on 2 pi clustered together to make RAM usage shared? 04:12 us_0gb VanessaE: Yes, but that should be a separate setting. 04:12 VanessaE I'd like to see an option to disable clouds entirely and replace them with a moving image of some kind 04:13 Menche don't only specially made programs benefit from clusters 04:13 VanessaE (e.g. a static image that is slowly scrolled over the sky, e.g. a rendering of clouds rather than blocky clouds) 04:13 us_0gb For example, cloud_hight and server_cloud_hight. 04:13 VanessaE Menche: yes, generally. 04:13 Peacock you can disable clouds, tho not replace them 04:14 OldCoder dafull97, I know little of portable devices. THis is off-topic but there are others who will comment. PM please. 04:15 OldCoder dafull97, I have PMd 04:22 us_0gb Hmm. Whether isn't what it seemed to be. I think I'll leave it out. 04:23 Peacock *weather 04:23 Peacock :P 04:23 Peacock (i get the two mixed up as well XD) 04:23 us_0gb Nothing can freezemelt at 0 degrees? That's odd, considering that's water's freezemelt temperature. 04:24 us_0gb Peacock: My apologies. Spell check doesn't catch when I spell the wrong word but I spell it correctly. 04:24 Peacock thats why i often get it wrong too lol 04:25 us_0gb Ha ha, nice. 04:25 us_0gb I've always had issues with spelling. About a year ago though, I learned why. 04:25 Peacock lysdexic? 04:25 us_0gb We tactile learners are just naturally bad at spelling. 04:26 us_0gb I'm slightly dyslexic as well, but that's a separate issue for me. 04:26 Peacock im more photographic than oral learner 04:27 Peacock takes me a tenth of the time to learn something reading about it that sitting in a classroom 04:27 us_0gb If I recall, my oral learning scores were low. 04:27 Peacock i also detested anything to do with languages or the arts lol 04:28 Peacock which, let's face it, leads to a career of teaching languages or the arts lol 04:28 us_0gb Everything is an art. Even science is an art. 04:28 Peacock well art is pretty suggestive, but in science, every question only has 1 answer 04:28 Peacock *subjective 04:28 Peacock not suggestive lol 04:29 us_0gb Well, some art is pretty suggestive. Have you seen the Greek sculptures? 04:29 Peacock yeah but that's pron lol 04:29 us_0gb Technically, no. 04:29 Peacock i meant to say art can be interpreted many different ways lol 04:30 us_0gb It's just the beauty of the human body, in stone form. 04:30 Peacock yeah ive seen pics of it, never been to greece tho 04:30 Peacock seems to guys were last in line when god was handing out the equipment lol 04:30 Peacock *those 04:31 * dafull97 is going to bed... 04:31 us_0gb *Zeus 04:33 Peacock in any case the notion that you can grade someone's art or their interpretation of it seemed ridiculous to me in school, thats why i hated it lol 04:33 Peacock at most, you can grade someone on their knowledge of art history 04:35 OldCoder Peacock, Representational art... 04:35 OldCoder They graded based on the ability to follow conventional rules 04:36 OldCoder So not Art really per se but mechanics 04:36 Peacock well i dont know how that would work with modern and postmodern art lol 04:36 us_0gb Postmodern? That sounds like future art. 04:36 Peacock postmodern art started around the 70s 04:37 OldCoder It would not work 04:38 OldCoder Too limiting 04:38 OldCoder And every era believes that it is post-modern 04:38 OldCoder We are always the cutting edge; the ones who are different and special 04:39 Peacock since when have artists not self-aggrandized lol 04:39 us_0gb No one is special. We all are replaceable, and will be replaced when they inevitably die. 04:40 Peacock you could say everyone is unique, but special implies better than the rest 04:41 Peacock tho treating every kid as special since the 90s' firmly convinced me not to have any lol 04:42 * Menche wonders what will come after "postmodern" 04:43 Peacock depends what state society's in 04:44 us_0gb Menche: Post-postmodern. 04:44 Peacock bedpostmodern lol 04:44 us_0gb Peacock: No children? Nice, me neither, but mostly for other reasons. 04:44 Peacock interesting read if you ignore the source: http://www.atlassociety.org/why_art_became_ugly 04:45 Menche who names "eras" anyway... and who decides how long eras are, lol 04:45 us_0gb As an asexual, the process of child creating ... is more than I want to deal with. 04:45 Peacock could still adopt, though i dont know what youre chances would be being single 04:45 us_0gb Slim, yeah. 04:46 Peacock i just dont want any kids lol 04:46 Peacock even if you raise em right, they'd still pick up the habits of all the other kids 04:47 OldCoder us_0gb, But we tell ourselves that we are special 04:47 us_0gb I sort of want children, to raise them right and better the world, but it seems like it would be such a hassle. I think I'll be happier without them. 04:48 us_0gb OldCoder: Yes, most people tell themselves they're special, but that doesn't make it true. 04:48 Peacock well the way the world is going, they might resent you for it lol 04:48 OldCoder us_0gb, Of course. That is the point. 04:49 us_0gb The children would resent me for raising them? 04:49 * OldCoder looks forward to upgrading more worlds soon 04:49 OldCoder g2g 04:49 Peacock no for bringing them into the world lol 04:50 Peacock they'll probably be working longer, earning less, paying more for everything, and paying high taxes 04:50 Peacock *higher 04:50 Peacock yeah i can get a cheaper TV made in china than what my parents could back in the day, but on the flipside, i'll be paying a heckuvalot more for a house to put it in 04:53 Peacock and while our parents could keep the same appliances for 20 years, we're lucky now if they last the warranty lol 04:56 paramat Peacock, new commit with perlin-varied size and persistence, ores still very simple https://github.com/paramat/asteroid 04:56 Peacock are you gonna make more changes? if so i should wait 04:57 paramat yes more changes coming 04:57 paramat no more SNOOFF, but a new parameter ICET heh 04:58 Peacock ICET sounds like isset :P 04:58 paramat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice-T 05:00 Peacock sweet, i love law and order lol 05:02 paramat i renamed dust to 'regolith', also, it now completely covers the stone, instead of being patchy 05:03 Peacock well im gonna have to change a few things anyhow, which is why im thinking of modularizing the whole thing at my end 05:03 Peacock so all i need to swap out in the ongen module 05:04 us_0gb Peacock: I am unable to bring them into the world, I can only (maybe) adopt. 05:04 ShadowNinja paramat: 1) Use proper git commits, not just v1, v2, v3, etc. 2) Use the LVM, 0.4.8 will be released soon and it will take time to learn. 05:04 * paramat also doesnt want kids 05:05 Peacock cuz i use the asteroid dust for two things: in the kiln for terracotta, and smelting to obtain silica and then kiln glass with it 05:08 paramat ShadowNinja, i thought commit messages could be anything, are version numbers not allowed? Also, i have already learnt LVM and new perlin map functions, just waiting for 0.4.8 stable :) 05:09 ShadowNinja paramat: Commits are designed for individual concepts, eg, "Cache settings". Tags are designed for versions and the like. 05:10 us_0gb paramat: I'm holding off too, though I want to use that Settings() feature pretty badly. Even if not for its intended purpose. 05:10 ShadowNinja Git *works* with commits like that. But that isn't really the way it's designed to be used. 05:11 paramat okay thanks, still a git newbie 05:11 Peacock dont worry, 3 years and i still have no clue how it works lol 05:11 ShadowNinja us_0gb: What Settings() abuse do you have in mind? 05:12 us_0gb ShadowNinja: I use it to parse some information out of map_meta.txt. Chunk size, water level, and I think one other thing. 05:13 ShadowNinja paramat: The docs at git-scm.com and the "Pro Git" book on it are helpfull. 05:13 us_0gb Information I need to know to set my modules correctly. 05:13 ShadowNinja us_0gb: Ah, that should be fine. 05:14 us_0gb Yeah, I'm not using it maliciously, just not for its intended purpose of module-based configuration files. 05:14 paramat thanks SN 05:15 ShadowNinja YW. 05:15 us_0gb ShadowNinja: I might also use it to store player currency, and some other non-configuration things. 05:15 us_0gb Just because it would be easier. 05:16 ShadowNinja us_0gb: minetest.serialize, or serialize_json(if we get it) sounds better for that. -- If it doesn't need to be human-readable that is. 05:17 ShadowNinja That way you can add other data like tables. 05:17 us_0gb Better how? And no, it probably does not need to be human readable. 05:18 us_0gb The amount of money player ShadowNinja has doesn't need to be represented as a table. 05:19 us_0gb I wouldn't know how to represent it that way if I tried. THough I could put it in a table, I guess. 05:19 ShadowNinja Yes, but you can later store data other than money in the file. 05:32 paramat Peacock, possibly useful ... see my 'spacetime' mod for code that sets and fixes time to midnight, hopefully custom skies come in 0.4.8 and you wont need it 05:32 Peacock what i did was easier: /set -n time_speed 0 and /time 0 05:32 reactor paramat: there is already a setting that fixes time. 05:33 reactor Yes, that, Peacock. 05:33 reactor Orthogonality is good. 05:33 Peacock aiight, i got a smelter for seperating ores, a forge for making ingots, an assembler (5x5 workbench) and a kiln for making glass/terracota... anything missing? lol 05:34 paramat wow cool 05:34 Peacock probably a protein/chemical synthesizer, ill need that for chemical lights and batteries 05:35 reactor Protein batteries? That's something new. 05:35 Peacock and an algea-pod for making food (algea paste) 05:35 Peacock chemical batteries :P 05:35 Peacock sortof star-trekish replicator, cuz there's no other way i can think of coming up with chemicals 05:35 paramat i want to make 'air' nodes drownable and have moonrealm-mod type breathable atmosphere nodes 05:35 Peacock i dont want pools of liquid in asteroids lol the mess and all 05:36 reactor I still wonder why people still use non-reghargeable batteries. 05:36 reactor s/still w/w/ 05:36 reactor s/gh/ch/ 05:36 Peacock i was thinking of making the air drownable too, tho im saving that for last since historically, the airgen bit was the trickiest 05:36 reactor Does space mod also remove gravity? 05:36 paramat certainly was :/ 05:37 Peacock havent touched gravity or air genning yet, still working out the resource tree heh 05:37 Peacock asteroids you get 4 basic resources: dust, stone, ice, and ores... and i have to find a way to make everything with that lol 05:37 Peacock hence the abundance of machines 05:37 reactor Free_move would probably be enough. 05:37 paramat i have a mod for custom gravities 'multigrav' 05:37 reactor but need to force it on 05:37 Peacock yeah i downloaded the first and latest multigrav, haven't tested it yet tho 05:37 reactor How are you gonna model the Earth? 05:37 Peacock no earth 05:37 reactor Oh, you're not orbiting anything? 05:38 Peacock game is Deep Space, just asteroids 05:38 Peacock ive pretty much gutted default of everything 05:38 reactor I was thinking about replicating ISS in MT. 05:38 Peacock re ISS, i was thining of making an inflatable pod for my tek mod in the game 05:39 Peacock so you could assemble a station with the modules 05:40 us_0gb I thought about making air drownable too. Or making it hurt you like lava. Or both. 05:40 Peacock drowning makes more sense cuz of the air bubbles 05:40 paramat ... in 'asteroid' mod i will extract oxygen from local materials, and craft air generators 05:41 reactor fill the rest of the map with water. 05:41 reactor oh. 05:41 reactor no 05:41 reactor bad 05:42 reactor or why not 05:42 reactor do it 05:42 reactor but replace water texture with transparency 05:42 Peacock well ill just go with pure air gen machines, underwater extraction makes more sense 05:42 Peacock but with normal liquids in the state they are, i haven't bothered with the waterworld map in weeks 05:43 paramat ah i wondered how waterworld was going / not going 05:44 Peacock well the normal liquids take ten minutes to flow, air holes take longer to fill up 05:44 Peacock im glad i dont have to deal with liquids at all in the asteroid map lol 05:52 paramat im gonna keep asteroid mod mapgen-orientated with just very simple items / crafting / machines, just basic airgen. i prefer to leave developing that stuff to others who can build on my mods mapgen 05:54 OldCoder I like the new entry message 06:04 VanessaE bbl 06:05 reactor Tour to Pripyat, anyone? 06:10 OldCoder reactor, Hi! 06:10 OldCoder reactor, I am actually trying to run mcedit now 06:10 reactor o/ 06:10 reactor Good. 06:10 OldCoder I will let you know 06:10 OldCoder retrying setup 06:11 OldCoder Could not get dependencies earlier 06:11 reactor Mkay. 06:11 reactor What OS, again? 06:14 OldCoder My Linux distro 06:14 OldCoder working on this now; will report back soon 06:15 reactor What package manager? 06:15 reactor And which package repository do you use? 06:15 OldCoder Heh 06:15 OldCoder I said... *my* Linux distro :-) 06:15 OldCoder As in, me 06:15 reactor Also, how come? You got disappointed in all Linux distros? 06:15 OldCoder I created it 06:15 OldCoder Ah 06:15 OldCoder I will link you to the story 06:15 OldCoder You can glance at it while I try to get mcedit up 06:16 reactor You would probably like to try FreeBSD. 06:16 OldCoder Heh 06:16 OldCoder reactor I was there when BSD was created 06:16 OldCoder I was one of the guinea pigs :-) 06:16 OldCoder 06:16 OldCoder http://oldcoder.org/distro/distrohistory.html 06:16 OldCoder 06:16 OldCoder 20 years ago 06:16 OldCoder I tried to get CSRG to move the free BSD variations along 06:17 OldCoder They were afraid of AT&T 06:17 OldCoder and decided to wait 06:17 OldCoder Linus stepped in and filled the void 06:17 OldCoder The link above is the answer to your question 06:17 OldCoder Hope it is interesting 06:17 OldCoder 06:18 OldCoder easy_install is building a bunch of dependencies. This will take a few minutes. 06:18 OldCoder Others, this is about converting MC maps to MT 06:19 reactor I see. 06:19 reactor Well, eh. 06:19 reactor Linux was a substitute for UNIX in the days it was undergoing relicensing. 06:20 OldCoder More than that 06:20 OldCoder The time was right... 06:20 reactor I don't see any reason to be sticking with a clone when you have the original OS for free now. 06:20 OldCoder There was going to be a Free PC UNIX 06:20 OldCoder Heh 06:20 OldCoder It is not a "clone" 06:20 reactor It's a badly written one. 06:20 OldCoder It is *my* OS and does as I wish 06:20 OldCoder Hm? 06:20 reactor The Linux kernel is. 06:20 OldCoder As I said, this is *my* version 06:20 OldCoder It does what I wish it to 06:21 OldCoder Here is a little white paper: 06:21 reactor I see. I'm talking specifically about the kernel. 06:21 OldCoder http://oldcoder.org/distro/distronotes.html 06:21 OldCoder Yes 06:21 OldCoder Linux and distros are not the same 06:21 OldCoder 06:21 OldCoder Hmm 06:21 OldCoder Running mcedit 06:21 OldCoder ImportError: No module named pymclevel.minecraft_server 06:21 reactor By the way.

I used to get the same error. 06:22 reactor Well, screw mobile. 06:22 OldCoder reactor, mcedit needs MC? 06:22 reactor No. 06:22 OldCoder It is OK 06:22 reactor I only use my mobile to SSH into my system, to use links(1) from there :D 06:22 OldCoder That is sensible 06:22 reactor s/, to/, and/ 06:22 OldCoder Should I google about the error? 06:22 reactor Mobile browsers are awful pieces of shit. 06:22 OldCoder Heh 06:22 reactor Googling didn't tell me anything. 06:22 OldCoder They are finicky this is true 06:22 OldCoder What did you do? 06:23 reactor I had to solve it myself. 06:23 reactor I can't seem to recall it. That happens a lot :( 06:23 reactor Need to think. 06:23 * OldCoder chuckles 06:23 OldCoder OK 06:23 reactor Probably my attempts at voluntary forgetting. 06:23 OldCoder Oh my 06:24 reactor pymclevel... Uh. 06:24 OldCoder Hmm 06:24 OldCoder A JAR file? 06:24 reactor No. 06:24 reactor you probably haven't got something. 06:24 reactor check the depends again 06:24 reactor I remember I had to fidget with dependencies. 06:24 OldCoder Ah 06:24 OldCoder Missing folder 06:24 reactor Got something? 06:24 OldCoder No 06:24 OldCoder I have all the depends 06:25 OldCoder It looks like the tarball omits something at GitHub 06:25 OldCoder Reviewing 06:25 reactor Yes. 06:25 reactor try and update from git 06:25 OldCoder Yes 06:25 OldCoder https://github.com/mcedit/pymclevel/archive/master.zip 06:25 OldCoder Probably this 06:25 reactor Oh.

The virus had flashed it. 06:36 OldCoder I said, never again 06:36 OldCoder Possibly... not even sure malware 06:36 OldCoder But probably 06:36 OldCoder So when the machine was rebuilt 06:36 OldCoder I VM'd the damn thing 06:36 reactor Oh. 06:36 OldCoder I now run MY LINUX distro 06:36 reactor That might work. 06:36 OldCoder and Windows is just another...

Probably. 06:38 OldCoder Hang on. I need to look at this mcedit issue. May not be solvable. 06:38 reactor Or...

I have a simpler setup. An rc script calls a shell script that spawns all servers in a certain directory in a loop. But it doesn't allow for restarting servers by one, only all of them. 06:52 OldCoder That makes an attempt to close all running worlds down gracefully 06:52 OldCoder So we have similar scripts and you may review mine 06:52 OldCoder But things are in transition 06:53 OldCoder I am now falling asleep 06:53 reactor Good night? 06:53 OldCoder Just as you did about 11 hours ago 06:53 OldCoder Pretty close to it 06:53 reactor Where are you from? 06:53 OldCoder Nice talking to you 06:53 OldCoder Silicon Valley 06:53 reactor Oh. 06:53 OldCoder In a specific sense 06:53 OldCoder 06:53 reactor And I'm from Russia 06:53 OldCoder In a broader one: 06:53 OldCoder Ah 06:53 OldCoder I am half Slavic 06:53 reactor Opposite sides of the Earth :D 06:53 OldCoder Not so far 06:53 OldCoder PM 06:53 reactor Idk who I am. 06:56 Miner_48er OldCoder may I see those scripts as well? 06:57 OldCoder Yes of course you may 06:57 OldCoder And I will help set up new servers 06:57 OldCoder Including such Linuxes as CentOS 06:57 OldCoder But one step at a time 06:57 OldCoder Tonight I am falling asleep 06:58 Miner_48er ok thx 07:24 reactor Something happened to my mcedit. 07:24 reactor I can't control the view for shit. 08:20 reactor Uh. 08:20 reactor With proper cooling, this machine does process the map faster. 08:48 reactor Hope what that TheLastProject guy is doing is really his last project. 09:17 MinetestBot GIT: proler@github.com commited to minetest/minetest: Masterserver fixes cf0786dc9d 2013-11-04T01:02:42-08:00 http://git.io/85I9BQ 09:22 reactor So.

Typical examples of handicapped signals include bird songs, the peacock's tail, courtship dances, bowerbird's bowers, or even possibly jewellery and humor. Jared Diamond has proposed that certain risky human behaviours, such as bungee jumping, may be expressions o 15:23 harrison instincts that have evolved through the operation of the handicap principle. Zahavi has invoked the potlatch ceremony as a human example of the handicap principle in action. This interpretation of potlatch can be traced to Thorstein Veblen's use of the ceremony in his book Theory of the Leisure Class as an example of "conspicuous consumption".[30] 15:23 harrison The application to bitcoin is left as a trivial exercise. 15:24 harrison QED 15:24 OldCoder reactor, Hi 15:24 reactor o/ 15:24 OldCoder reactor, slept about 2.5 hours more.

These features are incompatible with leveraging the computation for other purposes. 15:27 reactor YEs. 15:27 reactor s/YE/Ye/ 15:27 OldCoder reactor, East Bay Area in Silicon Valley.
