00:00 hmmmm yes
00:00 * Sokomine grabs some nice bright homedecor lights and puts them everywhere on peacocks server
00:01 us_0gb I wish my Minetest logs would quit getting corrupted. I've resorted to leaving my ssh portal open just to catch the error messages. But I feel vulnerable doing that.
00:03 * us_0gb questions where his ring went, which he just noticed isn't on his finger any more
00:09 NakedFury its from a meme
00:09 NakedFury I think a dog meme
00:10 us_0gb NakedFury: Ah. No wonder I don't know it. I don't really follow memes.
00:10 NakedFury same here but had already seen a similar comment elsewhere
00:10 NakedFury I dont get memes
00:12 us_0gb I usually don't either. THe vast majority of them are either unfunny or irritating.
00:14 SirDigby Happens
00:14 SirDigby Your just going up
00:15 SirDigby memes are made up shit from the minds of 12 year-olds
00:16 jnharlin is there a way to tell if a particular world has jungles? before I go off and try to find one?
00:16 SirDigby I apologize for the curse word.
00:16 us_0gb True, true.
00:17 us_0gb jnharlin: Check the world's meta file for the "jungles" flag.
00:17 jnharlin thanks..and if it doesnt, can I add it to the existing world?
00:18 us_0gb jnharlin: Officially, no, unofficially, yes, I've done it.
00:18 jnharlin lol...unofficially? So, how do I unofficially add it then? simply add the flag?
00:19 us_0gb jnharlin: I think you have to add the flag and a couple other lines to the file.
00:19 us_0gb If you don't add the other lines, the flag doesn't work, I think I recall.
00:20 jnharlin hmmm...i am using the vanilla minetest, loving it, and have a server setup with me and my daughter. We are needing cotton and the only way I see to get cotton is to find some jungle grass get a cotton seed and plant it.
00:20 us_0gb jnharlin: Add the flag to your minetest.conf, create a new world, and copy the new world's meta file to the old world while Minetest is not running.
00:23 jnharlin i do not see a way to create a world with or without jungles...so how does that get selected...and my current world does not have that flag :(
00:23 jnharlin is it just "jungles"
00:23 jnharlin V6
00:25 paramat the wow, such nodes server is Peacock / mauvebic's and uses my island mod for mapgen
00:25 us_0gb jnharlin: In minetest.conf, edit the "mg_flags" value and add ", jungles" to the end.
00:31 rsiska joined #minetest
00:32 us_0gb My new world has a nice island in the middle.
00:32 us_0gb It's a great place to spawn.
00:34 us_0gb I might actually import the island into my old world as a spawn area.

00:45 Megaf It's beautiful mesecons and pipeworks working together

01:00 Megaf xyz, looks cool
01:01 ShadowNinja MessagePack.  Protobuf would be better.
01:01 ShadowNinja (Or a custom compatible version)
01:02 xyz feel free to do protobuf
01:02 xyz and what's your reasoning?
01:04 ShadowNinja Protobuf uses a minimal amount of space for messages because you send keys only once.
01:06 xyz doesn't matter
01:06 xyz the difference isn't that big
01:07 Exio4 add client-side lua before switching to protobuf
01:07 Exio4 :D
01:10 xyz well, that's irritating
01:10 xyz it's 2014 already yet linux doesn't have a tool to convert part of a video to .gif animation
01:11 meldrian_fail xyz, how bout QGifer? (untested)
01:12 ShadowNinja Exio4: Or better: Have two people work on both.  :-)
01:12 xyz This file is coded with "avc1" codec and contains more than 1800 frames. This codec is not supported for full-length videos yet, please cut your video or use other codec like motion JPEG or YUV4.
01:13 xyz The player failed to load the video file!
01:13 xyz meldrian_fail: ^
01:13 Exio4 doesn't ffmpeg work there
01:14 meldrian_fail in that case, another program program like pitifi or openshot is needet to trim so you are probably right.
01:14 xyz by the way, wtf is "yuv4 video codec"
01:15 xyz well, I just want to select a part of video and convert it to .gif, I hoped it's not that hard
01:18 Exio4 xyz: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9878138/playing-a-specific-interval-of-a-video-in-mplayer-using-command-line-option + -vo
01:20 xyz but that's no problem, I've already used kdenlive to extract part of video
01:20 xyz well now qgifer accepted the file
01:20 xyz i tried to seek it and it froze
01:20 Exio4 mplayer -vo gifsomething then

01:22 dragutux hi
01:22 dragutux joined #minetest
01:23 xyz cool, it seems to know about multithreading
01:24 xyz uh oh, it froze again
01:29 xyz Exio4: now how do I make it not ~2.5 in size? and I also would like proper colors
01:30 xyz also FPS is lower than source
01:30 xyz but that's okey
01:33 xyz imagemagick ate 4 gb of ram? that's fine too, I have a lot of free ram anyway
01:36 xyz uh oh so what do I do?
01:37 Exio4 the fps thingy can be fixed with :fps=XX
01:37 Exio4 it looks somehow nice here, fwiw, (the colors)
01:37 Exio4 also, the size? i don't know!
01:39 xyz yeah sure colors are fine
01:39 xyz http://i.imgur.com/68WRpvu.png
01:44 Exio4 i can't play a 1080p gif decently
01:44 Exio4 this cusk
01:44 Exio4 sucks*
01:46 Exio4 lol
01:46 Exio4 chromium ate five gbs of ram
01:46 Exio4 for playing the .gif

02:21 Exio4 it is funny how the ram usage goes from 2gb to 6gb that fast
02:28 Exio4 was able to reduce it to 100mb
02:30 Exio4 now it looks like shit
02:34 xyz yea
02:34 xyz I've managed to reduce it to 3 mb limit and post to /a/
02:34 xyz challenge completed
02:35 Exio4 what did you do with it
02:35 xyz downscale to 480x270, 7 fps, export to png with ffmpeg, then `convert` to gif (8 fps), then gifsicle -O2 --colors 170
02:36 xyz it's a 13 second gif
02:36 Exio4 oh
02:36 Exio4 the resolution and FPS
02:37 Exio4 i'm using 852x480, also, 15fps
02:37 xyz it's anime so 8 fps is something my brain can accept
02:37 xyz and how long is it?
02:37 Exio4 i'm only converting 70 seconds
02:37 Exio4 but the whole episode is like 45 minutes :P
02:38 xyz did you run gifsicle on it?
02:38 Exio4 xyz: first episode of hannibal (tv serie)
02:38 Exio4 nope
02:39 xyz try it
02:39 xyz although I don't know what do you use
02:39 Exio4 took 43 seconds to download 126kb

04:25 diemartin joined #minetest
04:47 khonkhortisan joined #minetest
04:51 Peacock not very far, they seem to concentrate on 1-3 central islands lol
04:51 Peacock they use the defaults snow and ice?
04:53 Peacock (sorry for the delay, this up and down weather gave me a wicked cold/fever)
05:01 paramat oh hi ;)
05:02 paramat yeah default snow, ice. how about i put snow and ice starting 1km out?
05:04 paramat just wondering how far out players have 'seen' and generated chunks ... anyway there'll be a param for that ...
05:08 paramat wishing you health ... i'll set default start of snow biomes 1-2km out, its a noisy radial temp gradient
05:09 paramat an island 'is land', it does what it says on the tin
05:16 paramat no ... i'll make north / south cold, for a larger hot area as a strip across the world ;) toodle pip!

07:27 khonkhortisan Minetest has a common bug, mishandling a second mouse cursor.
07:28 enchilado Having a second mouse cursor is common?
07:28 khonkhortisan Mishandling an uncommon second mouse cursor is common
07:28 khonkhortisan though this program does it in an original way
07:28 khonkhortisan you can only aim the camera if you hold a button down
07:30 enchilado Ah
07:30 enchilado I thought you meant commonly encountered in Minetest, not a bug that was common across all programs
07:30 khonkhortisan It also has the more popular trap the first mouse in the window even if movement from the second mouse was detected

08:07 hoodedice So you didn't switch to FM?
08:07 VanessaE nope.
08:07 hoodedice Too liberal?
08:08 VanessaE tried it, didn't work out.  at the time, it was too much of a memory hog for what I had to work with
08:08 VanessaE theoretically, I could run it now, but from watching the discussions here and in -dev, I am not inclined to.
08:08 hoodedice They did optimise it, then again hogged it.
08:08 hoodedice lol what discussions?
08:09 VanessaE just general discussions across a variety of topics
08:09 hoodedice =|
08:09 VanessaE mostly networking-related

12:09 Megaf wow
12:09 monkeycoder joined #minetest
12:09 Megaf That's why I learned to run critical applications on a screen session and not in a normal terminal window
12:09 EvergreenTree funny how you can make cool 2d stuff in blender
12:09 Megaf s/why/how
12:10 EvergreenTree when it's meant as a 3d animator
12:10 EvergreenTree why?
12:10 EvergreenTree because blender is a very powerful animator
12:10 VanessaE Megaf: what's that got to do with anything?
12:10 Megaf I was just correcting myself EvergreenTree, And is sounds cool to make 2D stuff in blender
12:11 EvergreenTree oh
12:11 Megaf VanessaE: Sometime ago I would run a service in foreground on a terminal windows, then sometimes some program would make the X die, closing the terminal window and that service running on it
12:12 VanessaE I don't run any services from terminals in my normal desktop.
12:12 Megaf VanessaE: so I began to run services on screen sessions, so they would run no matter what and it will be quite easy to see theier logs and stop them
12:12 VanessaE meanwhile, that crash took down X hard enough that I had to force a reboot
12:12 Megaf my server runs on a screen session
12:12 VanessaE because when X goes, usually it takes the whole damn console subsystem with it :-/
12:13 VanessaE no servers here.  Mine are on a dedicated machine up in Canada.
12:15 Megaf mine too, but still...
12:16 Megaf yesterday I met and helped an American guy, he's going to Uruguay by bus

16:14 Exio4 it is amazing but 'expensive' vs the rpi
16:15 Exio4 it is like, why buy an i7 xxxK if you'll end having it at 1% most of the time and rarely get over 5% :D
16:15 zsoltisawesome ya
16:16 zsoltisawesome but, its good for cheap techies :D
16:16 proller you cant feel difference i7 vs i3

16:26 proller core i7 8cores  : real    1m55.024s
16:26 Exio4 8 threads
16:26 Exio4 not cores.
16:26 Exio4 also
16:26 Exio4 "i7" doesn't say much
16:26 Exio4 it can be first gen and mobile
16:26 Exio4 or last gen and K
16:26 Exio4 or the one that haz six cores
16:27 proller 8 for OS
16:27 specing proller: LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG
16:27 Exio4 8 threads proller
16:27 proller no sense
16:27 Exio4 you have four hyperthreaded cores
16:28 proller if i disable HT i will get /2 performanse
16:28 Exio4 you won't
16:28 proller test it
16:28 Exio4 i did
16:28 proller and&
16:28 proller ?
16:28 proller in real app like ^ compiling
16:28 Exio4 yeah
16:28 Exio4 try it by yourself
16:29 Exio4 hyperthreading only duplicates the stream lines and pipelines, and lets the cpu use unused cpu cycles
16:29 proller show results
16:29 Exio4 even intel itself says the performance increase isn't 2x
16:30 Exio4 and also, 2x performance is impossible
16:30 zsoltisawesome this will trend on twitter! #9001 #itsover9000
16:30 Exio4 because multithreading overhead.
16:30 proller okay, 1.8
16:30 Exio4 cool story
16:30 Exio4 but not real
16:30 Exio4 proller: give me real benchmarks
16:31 kahrl joined #minetest

16:33 Exio4 hyperthreading is good for IO-bound tasks
16:33 Exio4 in real power terms, it isn't that good
16:34 specing I think I found a big red
16:34 xyz so what's the use for RPi?
16:34 specing fireball  + fire everywhere
16:34 proller specing, its top lava spring
16:34 Exio4 xyz: education purposes, learning programming with a super-cheap box, printer server / torrent server / network fs share
16:35 iqualfragile specing: i think you meant dm
16:35 proller pi unusable for any purposes
16:35 Exio4 yeah, it is unusable for watching 4k movies
16:36 Exio4 do you want me to repeat what i said since you started saying the same bullshit over and over?
16:36 zsoltisawesome proller: pi is very usable
16:36 xyz Exio4: wait, why do you need it to learn to program?
16:36 xyz I somehow managed to do that without any raspberries
16:36 iqualfragile xyz: you do not need it
16:37 Exio4 xyz: give 4000 rapis to students, or 4000 odroid
16:37 Exio4 rapis doesn't that nice
16:37 Exio4 rpis, there!
16:37 iqualfragile but usualy people do not have linux on their main computers
16:37 xyz Exio4: I don't understand
16:37 xyz Exio4: if you're giving rpis to students
16:37 xyz then they probably already own a PC
16:37 zsoltisawesome iqualfragile: NO SHIT
16:38 xyz so what is it for?
16:38 iqualfragile so if they have that rpi which has linux on it and some gpios starting to program and hardwarehacking is a lot easier
16:38 Exio4 what is the whole point of having arm boards, following what you said?
16:38 zsoltisawesome xyz: Classrom use
16:38 xyz for some hacking
16:38 iqualfragile zsoltisawesome: yes, luckily this channel is a bit off
16:38 xyz not "education"
16:38 Exio4 you can hack with 8bit PICs
16:38 zsoltisawesome iqualfragile: lol
16:38 xyz yes, you can
16:39 xyz but it's easier with a proper linux box
16:39 Exio4 the point of the rpi is having the cheapest-arm-board you can get
16:39 zsoltisawesome i still havent got an answer
16:39 Exio4 i'm not willing to pay 700 ARS for an arm box
16:39 xyz you can just write a server in python to control your lights, and it'll just work
16:39 xyz so it's the cheapiest one?
16:39 xyz hard to believe
16:39 iqualfragile Exio4: whats 700 ARS in real money?
16:39 Exio4 you can get some rough average by /10
16:40 iqualfragile xyz: it has quite a nice price-value ratio
16:40 Exio4 (/10 =~ USD)
16:40 iqualfragile no, real money
16:40 Exio4 ok
16:40 zsoltisawesome "hey, whats a good Linux + Desktop combination to run on a Poweredge 2650: www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/2650_specs.pdf‎"
16:40 zsoltisawesome iqualfragile: USD is not real money?
16:40 Exio4 xyz: tell me other ARM board
16:40 Exio4 that is cheaper, less than 25USD, please
16:40 xyz Exio4: I don't know any
16:41 proller for controlling light much better to use arduino nano for 10$
16:41 xyz I'm just saying it's hard to believe
16:41 Exio4 what is the whole point of having intel atom, celeron, sempron, or APUs
16:41 Exio4 if the people can be happy with i7 and FX 8xxx
16:42 Exio4 you get better price/performance with the high end hardware
16:42 Exio4 perf/price, there
16:43 xyz oh, I know
16:43 xyz raspberry pi has CEC
16:43 sfan5 CEC?
16:43 xyz and costs less than pulse-eight's adapter
16:43 xyz too bad it's useless because it's just so damn slow
16:43 iqualfragile sfan5: some hdmi drm i think
16:43 xyz http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=CEC
16:44 xyz drm? no
16:44 xyz hdmi drm is called hdcp
16:44 Exio4 The median improvement for HT is 25%.
16:44 Exio4 based on proller's comments it is 100%
16:44 iqualfragile was cracked recently
16:44 Exio4 nice
16:44 xyz who cares?
16:45 iqualfragile * The median improvement for HT benchmarking perfectly paralisable task is 25%
16:45 iqualfragile and thats why i buy i5s not i7s
16:45 Exio4 the rpi doesn't fit your workflow? you are free to don't use it and be like "zomg it doesnt work 4me!!
16:45 Exio4 "
16:45 xyz hm
16:45 Exio4 i would like to buy an odroid, yeah
16:46 Exio4 my budget is too limited
16:46 Exio4 what should i do
16:46 xyz why are you so aggressive?
16:46 Exio4 xyz: i'm a bit tired of the same BS all the time
16:46 xyz what BS?
16:46 xyz that people tell you RPi is slow?
16:46 xyz it is, don't you agree?
16:46 Exio4 the point of the entry-level hardware
16:46 harrison i deny it!
16:46 Exio4 it is fucking slow
16:46 Exio4 and it is also fucking cheap
16:47 xyz I still don't understand why are you so angry :(
16:47 Exio4 i still love you xyz
16:47 Exio4 where can we meet tonight?
16:47 xyz but that's gay
16:48 Exio4 >:D
16:48 Exio4 i'm still waiting for proller's source for the 100% improvement when enabling HT
16:48 xyz wait, I had a gif somewhere
16:48 iqualfragile Exio4: you need to understand: he is from the 3rd world country russia and they are scared of gays around there
16:49 proller i'm still waiting for Exio4's source for the 25% improvement when enabling HT
16:49 Exio4 i'm from argentina
16:49 Exio4 proller: i posted it
16:49 Exio4 http://blog.stuffedcow.net/2011/08/hyperthreading-performance/
16:49 iqualfragile Exio4: i am aware of that
16:49 proller no, it not yours
16:50 iqualfragile proller: wtf? i am even suprized that it _has_ 25% improvement do you realy think it gets faster then that?
16:50 iqualfragile tip: there is no actual performance gain, just less switching active processes
16:50 iqualfragile so less performance loss
16:51 Exio4 i'm searching for official intel link
16:51 Exio4 hyperthreading is hardware assisted threading
16:51 proller stop googling, just compile minetest 2 times
16:51 Exio4 my actual cpu isn't an hyperthreaded-one
16:51 Exio4 also, are you taking the cache in account?
16:52 proller make clean; make -j8
16:52 Exio4 my cpu has six cores
16:53 xyz "there's no more performance gain, there's less performance loss"
16:53 Exio4 lol
16:53 Exio4 it is a nice idea for using unused cpu cycles
16:53 xyz Exio4: stop-being-so-gay.gif http://25.media.tumblr.com/6bea9f98ffb9ec06e42d972581e7a43d/tumblr_mz6golMmpB1qzqnxxo1_r1_500.gif
16:53 Exio4 yeah
16:53 iqualfragile ah, forgot that they obviously have more registers
16:53 iqualfragile sorry
16:53 iqualfragile so: yes there is a slight improvement
16:53 Exio4 xyz: </3
16:54 iqualfragile Exio4: i meant xyz is from russia
16:54 Exio4 i know
16:54 Exio4 just look at #fm :p
16:55 Exio4 http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/performance-insights-to-intel-hyper-threading-technology
16:55 iqualfragile xyz: what i meant was: using too many active processes on a cpu reduces performance, for a perfectly paralizable task its slower to run it using 8 processes on a 4-core cpu
16:56 iqualfragile ht increases that limit to twice the number of physical cores
16:56 proller specing, dirt disabled ;)
16:56 specing proller: am I in final mountain? or do you still dont know
16:56 iqualfragile thats what i meant with less performance loss
16:56 specing proller: I remebmer you said to go forawrd
16:56 harrison not if it is perfectly ||izable but there are cache misses (main memory accesses)
16:56 xyz iqualfragile: so it's actually faster?
16:57 harrison then ht can switch to another thread which is not waiting for memory
16:57 harrison obv
16:57 iqualfragile if it would be just for that: no
16:57 proller no, you near first WTF demo ;)
16:57 iqualfragile but there is a bit more: the bigger registers speed things up
16:57 specing proller: wat?
16:58 proller go forward!
16:58 iqualfragile if it would be just for that running the benchmark with 4 processes on a 4 core cpu and runing it with 8 on a ht cpu would not make any difference
16:58 specing proller: so if I just go forward, I'll smash to clear?
16:58 Exio4 he is right now, there is a performance improvement in some workloads
16:58 specing proller: at 400 height?
16:58 Exio4 but in multithreading scaling terms... it is plain shit
16:58 proller specing, forward-up
16:58 proller it just begining
