16:04 Jordach -!- Question doesn't make sense, try again.

16:05 blaise jp: eh, no.
16:05 jp blaise : my connection became suddently slow after that
16:06 blaise jp: you should notice the wireless antennas, they are little wires comming from the wireless device inside the laptop case
16:06 George__ ok I eane to put a decoradive stine on my cassel and I'm usinf stars to do it but I need them 108 %
16:06 blaise and it's entirely possible that you screwed up some shielding which is interfering with your wireless connection
16:06 jp blaise : ok, I'll take a look into it
16:07 jp I thought there was some wifi devices hidden in the screen, to amplify the signal or so
16:07 blaise jp: why would you want to remove the screen?
16:07 jp because it was dead
16:07 jp I cut the plastic, cables, etc
16:08 George__ I've seen it done in youtube vedios
16:08 blaise jp: it's entirely possible that the antenna be in the lid,
16:08 blaise jp: which is why I ask, why did you "Cut" the screen off?
16:08 jp indeed, that why I asked...
16:08 blaise did you use a pair of lawn shears?
16:09 blaise a hand saw?
16:09 jp wood & metal saw
16:09 blaise why didn't you use a screw driver?!
16:09 Hobodium Screw drivers don't cut things well, duh!
16:09 blaise he shouldn't have cut anything off
16:10 jp I cut it because it was annoying to have this dead thing ahead me (I relied the computer to a TV)
16:10 blaise if the screen is broke, and you want it off the device.. great
16:10 jp I prefer the brutal method
16:10 jp screwdiver is more long
16:10 blaise but lcd screens arn't that expencive..
16:11 jp 30$ on ebay
16:11 blaise and, you could have destroyed something in the laptop by using a saw..
16:11 blaise so why potentialy  waste $30 ?
16:12 jp there was some different cable into the plastic
16:12 Hobodium I think you are generally unlikely to do much damage to a laptop by just cutting off the screen. They don't usually stick anything that important in the lid.
16:12 blaise NO KIDDING
16:12 blaise Hobodium: aside from the LVDS cable, yes?
16:12 blaise which could have shorted out the laptop motherboard
16:13 Hobodium I doubt a low voltage cable is going to short much out, even fi you did manage to actually short anything
16:13 jp I think I can compensate this damage by increasing the wifi signal
16:13 blaise lol
16:13 blaise jp: what's the purpose of this machine?
16:14 jp internet naviguation mainly
16:14 Hobodium Also, the cable tends to come from the LCD panel itself from the ones I've worked on, so you can still replace it technically. Maybe he can use his saw to make a new frame for the lid!
16:14 jp -u
16:14 blaise I've always used pizza boxes
16:15 blaise it's neat becuase as they stack on the floor it's like a server rack..
16:15 blaise but pizza boxes..
16:15 blaise but it's humming...
16:16 Hobodium Just need to make sure nobody tosses out the pile of pizza boxes
16:16 blaise I keel j00 and your pizza box stealing madness

17:06 * Sokomine shoots whoever did the strange slabs in realtest
17:06 MinetestBot Sokomine: 09-23 06:43 UTC <est31> Hi there is a bug with your spraybooth. When you "take the output" and then place it in your inventory where there is already something else, that something gets deleted. Normal behaviour would be that that something then hangs at the cursor and can be placed somewhere else.
17:06 Sokomine !tell est31 that's a known bug in the engine/builtin. i hope it will get fixed eventually. it's issue #944
17:07 MinetestBot Sokomine: 09-23 06:47 UTC <est31> ok, you noticed that yourself already. #944
17:07 MinetestBot Sokomine: I'll pass that on when est31 is around
17:07 rubenwardy lol
17:07 Sokomine *g*
17:07 Sokomine hope that bug gets fixed eventually
17:08 PenguinDad hoodedice: I always come on for ################doweneedmore#s :P

17:19 cities that is hilarious
17:19 cities and bizarre
17:20 Krock Added 7 mods and updated 5 (Mod Search)
17:20 blaise apparently with neogloops mod, you end up with rainbow caves
17:20 cities blaise  do you play on a multiplayer server
17:20 cities so before I understood what happens when you die on there

17:21 cities umm not lately
17:21 cities blaise  which one is yours
17:21 rubenwardy Any recommendations for text / code editors on Ubuntu based operating systems? Sublime or Notepad++ would be perfect, except the first is proprietary and the second is windows only. I don't really want a full IDE.

17:31 sfan5 then you know that now
17:31 zlsa joined #minetest
17:32 cities I think I visited your server
17:37 doomtron guys, im running a default server and even being able to connect to it from LAN I belive my internet provider isnt allowing me to host any server trought his network
17:40 sfan5 doomtron: not allowing or preventing?
17:40 Calinou officially, not a lot of them allow hosting game servers
17:40 Calinou but you can always do it
17:40 doomtron preventing i think
17:40 Calinou try another port
17:40 Calinou but 30000 is rarely a restricted one
17:40 Calinou usually, the restricted ports are 25 and 80
17:40 sfan5 why 25?
17:40 sfan5 is that ftp?
17:41 doomtron its a radio internet service, i believe they are using some kind of routing which is blocking me
17:41 Calinou https://github.com/stuntrally/tracks/commit/b0e3c3f26729d60c53a25c337b72be92a7e092ba
17:41 Calinou sfan5, SMTP I think
17:41 sfan5 !g port 25
17:41 MinetestBot sfan5: http://www.port25.com/
17:41 sfan5 !title
17:41 MinetestBot sfan5: The SMTP Server Software Leader: PowerMTA
17:41 sfan5 yup
17:41 Calinou doomtron, in mobile Internet (3G/4G and such) you can't host a server because you don't have a routable public IP at all
17:42 doomtron so the answer would be remobo?
17:42 sfan5 nah
17:42 Calinou don't ever use that
17:42 sfan5 vpn on a vps would be infinitely better
17:42 huw joined #minetest
17:42 blaze joined #minetest
17:43 doomtron hmm
17:44 doomtron but a vpn would not make my server private to that network?
17:45 sfan5 no
17:45 sfan5 you can forward port 30000 on your vps to your computer
17:45 blaise or rent a shell for $5 a year and put the server on the shell

17:52 Calinou Carbone: Remove outdated, annoying Awards mod. Note that you can get it here as a mod: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&amp;t=4870
17:52 Inspire049 hi
17:53 blaise Calinou: what ever happened to that awards mod
17:53 blaise did rubenwardy abandon it?
17:53 Calinou it looks like so anyway :/
17:53 Calinou but it still works on latest versions
17:53 Calinou the pop-ups are very annoying
17:54 blaise rubenwardy: why did you abandon your mod?
17:54 Calinou and I don't like the concept of such achievements much anyway
17:54 Calinou probably a lack of time, he maintains dozens of mods already
17:54 rubenwardy No, I just can't be bothered to update it.
17:54 Calinou I'm trying to put Carbone on a diet by removing useless mods
17:54 rubenwardy And NBE
17:54 blaise I do, but I feel like the visual notification shouldn't be centered on the screen and have to be interacted with to continue with anything
17:54 Calinou to make it more maintainable
17:55 Calinou blaise, needs to be done with the HUD then
17:55 Calinou more performance-costy server-side
17:55 Calinou the HUD is not made to make menus
17:55 blaise Calinou: I'm rather fond of the HUD mod
17:55 blaise :)
17:55 Calinou most HUD mods rely on timed routines
17:55 rubenwardy If someone would like to compile a list of balanced awards, then I'll add them.
17:56 Calinou rubenwardy, Carbone had quite a set of custom awards
17:56 Calinou you can find them in the GIT history
17:56 Calinou https://gitorious.org/calinou/carbone/commit/e00888f07072a7191d2270ec7091de22ec4fb211

17:56 Calinou this, more accurately
17:59 Calinou https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1467
17:59 Calinou does this allow us to make a Vanish mod?

18:20 blaise ShadowNinja: would you happen to know if memcached might could be used with minetest ?
18:21 sfan5 blaise: whats memcached?
18:21 ShadowNinja blaise: No, I've never used that.
18:21 ShadowNinja Sounds like "memory cache daemon"

18:23 PenguinDad sfan5: this one I guess http://www.memcached.org/
18:25 sfan5 and what should it cache?
18:28 sfan5 asie: that license they use o.O

18:28 asie sfan5: Yes.
18:29 asie The mod at least 4 major Minecraft mods depend on, some of which are FOSS... is not FOSS
18:29 sfan5 is that even enforceable?

18:29 asie He knows his legal stuff well.
18:30 sfan5 "Also, since it's not fully open, it keeps asie far far away, which is seriously worth doing."
18:30 asie Yes, they hate me this much
18:30 * sfan5 wonders why asie is hated
18:30 asie I don't know
18:30 asie I think it's related to some of my blog posts

18:32 rubenwardy How does mese spawn naturally (what item code?)
18:32 Calinou default:mese I think…
18:32 Calinou or default:meseblock now
18:32 Calinou default:mese is likely an alias
18:32 sfan5 "*A Functionally Equivalent Statement is a code fragment which, regardless of whitespace and object names, achieves the same result. Basically you can't copy the code, rename the variables, add whitespace and say it's different. It's not."
18:32 sfan5 asie: obfuscate all the code?
18:32 rubenwardy default:stone_with_mese
18:33 Mati^1 joined #minetest
18:33 Calinou that's mese ore
18:33 Calinou it also spawns as blocks naturally
18:33 Calinou sfan5, obfuscate ALL the code!
18:33 Calinou asie, this guy should work at Google, on the Android SDK :)
18:33 blaise sfan5: ShadowNinja: it's used to cache databases
18:34 sfan5 blaise: why not just use redis?
18:34 blaise sfan5: because memcached works over a network.. so you can distribute the database load to multiple machines
18:35 Calinou the FSF doesn't define open source, it defines free/libre software, asie
18:35 sfan5 asie: "Note 4: And now I'm a jerk for trying to raise awareness of a potential issue which might bite us all with the next Minecraft update. I hate this community sometimes" s/sometimes//
18:35 sfan5 blaise: redis does too
18:35 Calinou well, just quit Minecraft modding, it's hell on earth
18:35 * Jordach pets asie
18:35 blaise sfan5: where?
18:35 asie Calinou: I already did
18:35 * sfan5 meows at Jordach's lamp
18:35 asie I also use open source for simplicity
18:35 sfan5 blaise: where??
18:36 asie visible source is whatever is not free software but open source
18:36 blaise oh
18:36 Calinou that's often called shared source
18:36 Calinou the OSI says open source must be redistributable, etc
18:36 * blaise explodes
18:36 Jordach asie, the MC community since 2011 proved their nothing but a bunch of useless twats and hippocrites
18:36 Calinou if you can just view it, it's “shared source”
18:36 Jordach they're*]
18:37 asie Calinou: I don't even bother making all the distinctions
18:37 asie If it fulfills the four freedoms, it's open source, if you can read the source, it's visible source
18:37 ImQ009_ joined #minetest
18:37 asie and if it restricts you into their own viral box, it's "free software"
18:37 asie free as in America
18:37 blaise ah poop
18:37 blaise so how do I do this
18:38 blaise instead of localhost I use the machine I want the server to access the redis database on?
18:38 * PenguinDad gets blaise's pieces together
18:38 blaise but that doesn't distribute the load of the database over multiple servers
18:38 sfan5 asie: "Nobody can legally take it up without the explicit permission of the developer, which sometimes is not given at all (see RedPower 2, [...]" RedPower2 is abandoned?

18:39 asie Then came back in 1.7.10
18:39 asie then decided to quit again and work on Minia, her own propiertary clone
18:39 * Calinou sad laugh
18:39 sfan5 blaise: redis_address = <db server>, you can't use multiple servers IIRC
18:39 sfan5 asie: and is there any alternative?
18:39 asie Yes!
18:39 asie RedLogic is the MIT one
18:39 blaise sfan5: but with memcached you can..
18:39 asie Project: Red is a fork of RedLogic that used to be LGPL, then rewrote everything and went closed-source
18:39 blaise hence the distributed database backend
18:40 asie there's also BluePower
18:40 asie an LGPL clone that tries to be a lot more faithful to RP2
18:40 asie but early in dev
18:41 sfan5 asie: so basically no
18:41 sfan5 :(
18:42 sfan5 I really enjoyed rp2
18:42 asie sfan5: basically yes
18:42 asie just use RedLogic
18:42 sfan5 1.7.10?
18:42 asie 1.5.2+
18:42 asie up to 1.7.10
18:42 asie I did the 1.7 port
18:42 sfan5 awesome
18:42 asie then immibis fixed it up
18:43 erlehmann Calinou FYI, i reported bug with minetest and maintainers seem to be quick in debian
18:44 erlehmann asie there is an open source definition http://opensource.org/osd-annotated
18:44 asie erlehmann: i don't really care anymore
18:44 asie i just call things what i feel they should be called
18:45 blaise http://code.google.com/p/memcached/
18:45 erlehmann asie yeah, but the OSI *defined* (and popularized) the term. so if you call it something else, well, everyone will misunderstand you.
18:45 asie erlehmann: there are tons of misunderstandings
18:46 blaise sfan5: so I suppose to use that we would need redis and memcached
18:46 asie and i'm not bothering to use 'free software' as that term brings even more misunderstandings
18:46 asie so there
18:46 Calinou free software, done properly, doesn't cause confusion
18:46 sfan5 blaise: why both?
18:46 Calinou cf. libre software
18:46 Calinou free/libre if you want
18:46 sfan5 asie: http://youtu.be/1IowoeWOgfc?t=14s
18:46 blaise and have memcached cache the redis database over multiple machines
18:46 asie Calinou: nope
18:46 asie most people think free software is freeware
18:46 Calinou there are other ethical implications to the term
18:46 asie and libre software would just make me look like a nerd
18:46 erlehmann asie why do the people hate you?
18:46 erlehmann the minecraft people?
18:46 asie erlehmann: who knows?
18:46 Calinou http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html (-:
18:47 asie Calinou: richard-stallman-misses-the-point ;-)
18:47 asie erlehmann: maybe because i actually give a shit about licensing, what mods are used, porting things
18:47 erlehmann asie i see!
18:47 asie and i BRING THE TOPICS UP
18:47 asie instead of keeping it to myself
18:47 * sfan5 meows at asie
18:47 asie i go on IRC and say "hey, that's an issue"
18:47 asie and then everyone puts me on /ignore
18:47 blaise congratz
18:48 Calinou asie, the FSF isn't only about Richard Stallman though.
18:48 Calinou it would be sad to “simplify” it to only one man
18:48 erlehmann saying „free software“ is now „open source“ is like saying „rock n roll“ is now „new wave“
18:48 Calinou there's a guy behind the OSI too, Eric Raymond

19:43 blaise so, I'm over here trying to migrate my server to a redis db on a remote machine
19:44 blaise and eh, it doesn't seem to notice if the redist server is up or down
19:44 Mati^1 joined #minetest
19:44 blaise so.. I'm not sure if this is actually  working
19:44 blaise and when I tail -f the redis.log in debug mode, I don't see any activity at all
19:45 blaise so, I'm not sure if it's even communicating with the remote machine
19:45 blaise I don't believe it is..
19:46 alket sfan5, what about now
19:46 alket i mean , what now
19:46 sfan5 alket: it's running
19:47 alket but they can't connect
19:47 sfan5 where are you hosting it?
19:47 alket sfan5, home
19:48 sfan5 alket: forward port 30000 udp on your router to the computer the server runs on
19:49 Krock wat. minetest fails to compile? eww. devs.
19:50 alket sfan5, from 3000 to ?
19:50 sfan5 alket: just 30000
19:51 blaise Krock: mine compiled just fine
19:51 alket sfan5, but it has Start Port End Port
19:51 Krock mine didn't. that's the problem. using the same setup as last week when it compiled fine
19:51 zlsa alket, 30000 to 30000?
19:51 zlsa or 30001?
19:52 sfan5 alket: from 30000 to 30000
19:52 blaise that's got to look like a complete mess in iptables
19:52 sfan5 blaise: routers always do a mess with iptablers
19:52 sfan5 -r
19:52 blaise what ever script you're using must suck big hairy whale poop
19:53 sfan5 blaise: it's probably the router config gui
19:54 blaise you have to specify a range? you can't specify a single port?!
19:54 blaise and are you sure it's not asking for something like /24 ?
19:55 blaise the /24 would be to allow forwarding of all ports
19:55 blaise not sure how to specify that
19:55 sfan5 thats called exposed host
19:55 blaise lol
19:56 blaise sfan5: whelp, I think the server which hosts my minetest server does not have the ram to migrate from leveldb to a remote redis server
19:57 blaise sfan5: I get to about half way, then it says 14:55:25: ERROR[main]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: Failed to store block in Database
19:57 blaise but no error on the redis server
19:57 rubenwardy Added API support for players receiving prizes, such as blocks and items, when unlocking awards (not currently used by any awards)
19:57 blaise just [18588] 26 Sep 19:55:25.370 - Client closed connection
19:58 blaise rubenwardy: Yay!
19:59 blaise I wonder if I can transfer the leveldb folder to the redis server machine and migrate it from there
19:59 blaise I'm feeling like it might be the only way
20:00 rubenwardy The problem with prizes is their value varies depending on the economy of a server. (Not very valuable on creative, valuable on branch new survival where no big blocks are on circulation)

21:07 Calinou I read lua_api.txt, the API is actually pretty large
21:07 Yepoleb joined #minetest
21:07 Calinou zat, isn't scatter 3d noise?
21:07 Calinou you can change noise params
21:07 zat Calinou: really???
21:07 zat OMFG
21:10 Calinou lua_api.txt says so
21:10 Calinou the scatter generation is quite configurable

21:18 alket is there a free server hosting for 4 players ? :)
21:18 Calinou no
21:19 Calinou you can go on an unpopulated server and play, but you don't have a say on the server configuration
21:19 blaise alket: you're welcome on my server

22:03 * PenguinDad slowly falls asleep
22:04 VanessaE ItsLuke: perhaps best to ask the individual you wish to tip, directly
22:04 ItsLuke I want to tip Minetest
22:04 VanessaE the Minetest donations page doesn't, per se, but there's a Paypal option, and I believe you can route your donations through coinbase now
22:05 tpe joined #minetest
22:05 VanessaE (coinbase et al. -> paypal -> minetest, if I understand paypal's new cryptocurrency deal correctly)
22:05 Bo7a Shot in the dark, but maybe one of the devs in the dev channel has a wallet already :)
22:06 ItsLuke Doge isnt coinbase
22:06 VanessaE I know, but you can trade it for BTC and use that.
22:06 Bo7a gocoin is the paypal dealy. But Only in north america right now
22:06 VanessaE Bo7a: they're also doing coinbase and one other.
22:06 Bo7a sweet
22:06 ItsLuke I'm going to tip Hundreds of thousands of doge
22:07 ItsLuke soo,,,
22:07 Artemis3 tip VanessaE with panda coins :3
22:07 VanessaE Artemis3: :)
22:07 VanessaE PND that is :)
22:09 VanessaE but seriously,
22:10 VanessaE that's your best route for now is to exchange them for BTC and use one of those two BTC/Paypal gateways
22:10 ItsLuke Id rather not
22:11 ItsLuke Have you seen the Cryptsy rates?
22:11 VanessaE Not for that service in particular, but I know cryptsy sucks :-/
22:11 VanessaE I stopped using them; if I need to trade I'll do it on mintpal
22:12 ItsLuke Their rates are the same

23:02 AldoBR joined #minetest
23:03 AldoBR hi all
23:03 AldoBR i want the inventory equivalent of ItemStack() object creato
23:03 AldoBR *creator
23:08 kaeza what do you mean?
23:09 AldoBR when you want to create a new stack from nowhere
23:09 AldoBR you do
23:09 AldoBR stack = ItemStack("name:qnt")
23:09 kaeza yes
23:09 AldoBR how can i create a inventory out of nowhere ?
23:09 AldoBR and later attach it to a node
23:10 doomtron joined #minetest
23:10 doomtron joined #minetest
23:10 roboman2444 joined #minetest
23:10 kaeza you just local meta = minetest.get_meta(nodepos) local inv = meta:get_inventory()
23:10 kaeza then inv:set_size("listname", 123)
23:11 AldoBR thats the problem the inventory is attached to a node in world
23:11 AldoBR i want one inv that is not attached to anything at all
23:11 kaeza https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt#L1551
23:11 kaeza ^ that then
23:12 AldoBR it has a name
23:12 AldoBR well, i will do another less elegant solution
23:12 paramat joined #minetest
23:12 AldoBR i will pass around a table of itemstacks and write two functions : one that translates from inventory to that table and other that translates from that table to inventory
23:13 AldoBR thanks
23:13 kaeza you still need an InvRef for it to be useful
23:13 kaeza (e.g. to show the inv in a formspec)
23:14 kaeza and for that, you need to name your inv something unique
23:14 AldoBR storeinventory = function(node, invtable)
23:14 Nascher joined #minetest
23:14 AldoBR it does not need to appear in a inv ref
23:14 AldoBR i am creating a util library for moving nodes
23:14 AldoBR nodes that can be moved around
23:14 AldoBR a kind of generalization of the approach taken on TBM
23:14 AldoBR to move, they must carry their inventory around
23:15 kaeza if you don't need to actually show the inventory, then yes, you don't NEED and InvRef
23:15 kaeza you can do that with regular tables
23:15 AldoBR i can save the target node inventory to a variable
23:15 AldoBR err
23:16 AldoBR i can save the source inventory to a variable
23:16 AldoBR move the node
23:16 AldoBR and write the inventory back to the target node
23:16 AldoBR and then move the node
23:17 AldoBR err another question, how to detect if a itemstack is a tool/something that wears and cannot be stacked ?
23:18 kaeza if itemstack:get_wear() ~= nil then ...
23:18 AldoBR hm
23:18 AldoBR so only tools have get_wear() defined ?
23:19 kaeza no, it's a call
23:19 AldoBR ah ()
23:19 kaeza if it returns nil, it's not a "tool"
23:19 AldoBR ok
23:19 AldoBR thanks
23:19 kaeza sure
23:19 * blaise explodes
23:21 AldoBR http://pastebin.com/tP6HbFxD
23:22 kaeza AldoBR, you can also use stack:to_table()
23:22 AldoBR api does not explain to_table() output format
23:23 kaeza AFAIK, ItemStack(stack:to_table()) is supposed to return a stack equal to the original stack
23:23 kaeza { name="foo:bar", count=1, metadata="asdf", wear=1234 }
23:24 AldoBR hm
23:24 kaeza ("wear" not set for not "tools", "metadata" not set if the stack has no metadata)
23:26 AldoBR thanks
23:26 RealBadAngel AldoBR, if you dont know the format use print(dump(x))
23:26 RealBadAngel where x is your table in question
23:27 RealBadAngel you will easily see how its organized then
23:27 blaise wow
23:27 blaise even my regulars are gone
23:27 blaise seems they haven't been on since right before I fixed the lag issues
23:34 AldoBR i have a lua question
23:34 AldoBR if I table.insert(table, "string")
23:34 AldoBR can "string" be duplicates ?
23:34 AldoBR i mean
23:34 AldoBR table.insert(table, "test")
23:34 AldoBR table.insert(table, "test") again
23:34 AldoBR will the table have two "test" entries ?
23:38 VanessaE it will.
23:38 VanessaE at two different, adjacent indexes
23:38 VanessaE if you did one right after the other that is
23:38 AldoBR i need a way to avoid duplication
23:39 VanessaE e.g. [1] = "test", [2] = "test", [3] = nil
23:39 AldoBR i am writing a inventory utility lib
23:39 AldoBR and i have a function named getstacksnames
23:39 AldoBR it returns the name of everything that is in a inventory
23:39 jin_xi or you can use the string as index and store a quantity for example
23:40 jin_xi then you can check if its in the table already easily
23:40 AldoBR if i understand correctly, i am doing it wrongly, becouse that function would return duplicate entries

23:41 kaeza AldoBR, https://gist.github.com/kaeza/a9aacd6163c922da326f
23:45 RealBadAngel before insterting check for key
23:45 RealBadAngel if its null then insert new entry
23:47 RealBadAngel if table["key"] == NULL then
23:47 VanessaE nil*
23:47 RealBadAngel erm i mean NIL ;)
23:47 AldoBR thanks
23:48 RealBadAngel ninja'd as usual ;)
