00:04 jbb > neither will work on the raspberry pi unfortunately
00:04 jbb If arm is not disabled on purpose for the minetest flatpak on flathub, it should work on raspbian I think.

01:51 Extex How do I revoke all privileges from a player? Regardless of if they're an admin or not? It'll only be for like 2 seconds and their privs get returned. Fyi this is in a mod. Not commands
01:53 Extex I tried doing minetest.set_player_privs(name, {})
01:58 Corey[m] Extex: Why not retrieve the current privs and then iterate over the table setting all the flags in it to false and then doing set_player_privs(name, new_privs)? I'm not too familiar with the privs system so that's what I'd do, someone correct me if there is a better way

03:02 Extex Umm I think I've found a bug
03:03 Extex I can't revoke interact from my player
03:16 swift110 joined #minetest
03:17 Extex It's not setting
03:18 Extex Could it be due the fact that I am the admin? XD. I think you should be able to revoke your privs regardless of your status. Just as long as grant is still there :/

04:06 Extex Could I get some oppinions?
04:07 Extex102 I'm making a mod that adds sickness and medicine
04:07 Extex102 I'm trying to make penicillin
04:08 Extex102 By putting bread near water thus getting mouldy
04:08 Extex102 But I'm not sure how I should do it
04:09 Extex102 Should I made it a node? Should it be a placable entity?
04:09 Extex102 I was hoping to make it a dropped item but that bears the risk of despawning
04:10 Extex102 What are your thoughts
04:21 swift110 hey all

10:33 hanetzer hey folks o/
10:41 jonadab Ok, I'm running Minetest on a real computer now, instead of the garbage Windows Ten laptop.  And performance is *overwhelmingly* better; but everything looks very dark.  Is that adjustable somehow?
10:43 jonadab I've played around in the graphics settings a bit, but I can't seem to find anything that lightens things up to a usable level.
10:44 sfan5 if I remember right, there's a setting to adjust gamma
10:44 jonadab That sounds like the right thing.
10:44 jonadab Can't find it.
10:45 jonadab We're talking, a stone block three blocks away from a torch, is so dark it's basically black.
10:45 jonadab Oh, found it.
10:46 jonadab Client->Graphics->In-Game->Advanced->Gamma.
10:49 jonadab Hmm.  Gamma was 2.2.  I tried 2.8, then 5, then 25, then 500.  I'm not 100% sure I notice a difference.
10:54 sfan5 it's probably capped at an upper value
10:57 MDude joined #minetest
10:57 jonadab Likely.
10:57 jonadab I mean, on the menu screen, the _clouds_ in the distance are black.
10:58 jonadab Something is clearly very wrong.
10:59 jonadab (The close-up clouds are light gray, almost white-ish.  But why are the ones in the distance so dark?)
11:01 jonadab I've tried switching out the video driver setting (it defaulted to opengl; I tried software), no difference.
11:05 sfan5 https://a.uguu.se/vxQEaqBvMVqK_gRBi4CB.png here's how the mainmenu is supposed to look
11:22 calcul0n joined #minetest
11:29 maccraft joined #minetest
11:36 jonadab Hmm.  I am getting results closer to that now; not sure what changed.
11:37 jonadab Other than that I got minetestserver running and connected to it, ad interim.
11:37 jonadab Not sure why that would be relvant; perhaps it isn't.
11:42 jonadab Speaking of minetestserver, how do I tell it to save and exit?
11:43 jonadab Ah, found that.
11:43 jonadab /shutdown
11:44 jonadab ... of course I need server privs to do that.  Makes sense.
11:45 jonadab Hmm, that's a chicken-and-egg problem.
11:45 proller joined #minetest
11:46 sfan5 you can also ^C it
11:46 jonadab Oh, Ctrl-C is safe?  That's good to know.
11:47 jonadab I will have to look into auth.txt later.

14:46 hanetzer anyone experienced with mineclone2 here? trying to locate 'open' areas in the nether
14:49 calcul0n_ i think you have to dig in a random direction or try another portal
14:50 calcul0n_ also i'm not sure if you go to the same place if you just close and reopen it

22:57 jonadab Interesting.  I figured out how to solve my gamma problem:  got 5.1 from backports.
22:58 jonadab And *man*, I cannot get over how much more responsive the game is running on this Devuan desktop, compared to the Win Ten laptop.  Night and day.
23:01 jonadab Let's see how this does when I'm riding a minecart, that's the acid test.
23:02 jonadab HOLY COW.   It's not glitching or jumping backward AT ALL.
23:03 berome joined #minetest
23:04 jonadab Ok, yeah, I am never going to try to run anything resource-intensive on Windows Ten ever again, unless it's to compile a Windows build of something.
23:04 jonadab This is amazing.
23:06 DusXMT It might be due to windows defender
23:06 DusXMT I have a Windows 10 VM for school software and compiling things on windows, and looking at the task manager, windows defender is quite hungry
23:07 jonadab The worst offender is actually Windows Updates.  When Ten decides to download an update in the background, the system is I/O bound for hours.
23:08 DusXMT Well, you can pause the updates for a week, and perform them explicitly on a weekly basis
23:08 maccraft joined #minetest
23:08 jonadab But it's also the complete refusal of Windows to actually give you information about what processes are doing what, or let you shut down the ones you don't need.
23:08 jonadab Software that isn't even *installed* shows up on the process list.
23:09 jonadab THe other day, I was I/O bound, and the Task Manager, sorting by Disk usage descending, listed MS Office in the #2 slot.  I don't HAVE MS Office.
23:09 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/2 -- Burned wood
23:10 jonadab Of course it won't show you actual pathnames or anything.
23:11 jonadab Ok, yeah, even riding the minecart through caverns hundreds of blocks in every direction, no perf issues at ALL.  This is wonderful.
23:11 erlehmann joined #minetest
23:11 jonadab I should try out a boat at some point.  But maybe not while I'm three thousand blocks below sea level :-)
