Time Nick Message 09:04 independent56 The Minetest blog hasn't had a new edition for months now. What happened? 09:05 MTDiscord well not much happened, that's the thing 09:05 MTDiscord I think a November blog post is being worked on though 09:14 independent56 Hmm, i already published the November and October newsletters for Advtrains and they have been deprived of relevant blog details 09:58 independent56 Oh and also, in case you were wondering, 56i-mtserver has been lost. I left it in the UK by accident when we moved to Spain/Catalonia lol. 10:06 Ingar independent56: as in, the machine, physically ? 10:06 independent56 Yes 10:06 Ingar lol 10:06 independent56 And it was supposed to be brought back in the van about a week ago but we emptied it and we couldn't find it 10:06 Ingar no backups ? 10:06 independent56 I might as well start a replacement server TBH 10:06 independent56 I do have backups but no backups of the physical hardware 10:07 independent56 And they lag a bit behind the machine TBH 10:08 Ingar well, if you have the data, who cares :D 10:08 Ingar (unless it was some special machine with sentimental value ;) ) 10:09 independent56 IDRC but a bit bummed i'll have to setup a new machine 10:09 independent56 And then follow GDPR because of Brexit 10:09 independent56 *begin to 10:09 independent56 It's a lot of German to read lol 10:10 Ingar best not to have user data to begin with ;) 10:11 independent56 good idea 10:15 independent56 I was reading through the ToS for Google drive premium and found "If payment is not made within 5 days, the user’s data will be published publicly until payment (compundly increasing by 100% each 12 hours, starting from publication) is made" 10:16 independent56 Should i be worried? 10:16 independent56 And more importantly, does it comply with GDPR? 10:18 lissobone When does the jam end? 10:19 independent56 Probably when Google gets sued 10:21 lissobone Ok, I have got a great idea for a game. I can't really do it until December 8th because I have to prepare to my exams. 10:21 lissobone It says something about an 11-month schedule. 10:24 lissobone What does it mean, by the way? 10:25 lissobone Has it, already finished? 10:26 lissobone Wait, there shouldn't be a comma. 10:54 MTDiscord lissbone: Yes, this years Minetest game jam has already finished on the 21st November. 10:54 MTDiscord The next one will run from the 1st October to the 21st October I suppose (that's the "11-month schedule"). 12:25 definitelya I have a problem with rubenwardy and how he moderates Weblate: I was banned from making translations for reasons I wasn't even made privy to. 12:26 definitelya I translated the whole of CDB in Italian some time ago, unban me. lol 12:38 MTDiscord I think zughy was complaining about the quality of your translations 12:42 definitelya I put effort in my work, actually. Zughy could have let me know what were his remarks, and we'd have collaborated together and fixed things. 12:43 definitelya I have no idea what he told ruben, so I can't say I understand. 12:45 MTDiscord https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/12976#issuecomment-1321167107 12:46 definitelya Roller: Yeah, I linked that in the forum as well. 12:47 MTDiscord imo outright banning someone from the translation platform seems too much, there should be some sort of dialogue between translators of a language to coordinate efforts and keep a common glossary and standard 12:47 definitelya I agree! 12:48 definitelya I don't have a degre in English, so I'd be really glad to accept Zughy's contributions in the next Minetest version. :( 12:48 definitelya *degree 13:53 cranezhou looking forward to the blog(s) of minetest.net this month or next month. ;-P 13:56 MTDiscord I'm going to do it soon.I'll probably make the rough draft tomorrow. Advertisement: we really need people to submit their news on the issue tracker on the blog, and we also need more editors. Only Rubenwardy and I make the blog currently; sometimes neither of us have the time. 14:04 independent56 I have one thing tangentally related to the blog http://advtrains.de/wiki/doku.php?id=events:newsletter:2022-11 14:04 independent56 it even comes with Spanish translations 14:04 independent56 Plus, it's //usually// published on the 1st or second of each month, 15:09 definitelya rubenwardy: Still waiting to be unbanned. 15:22 MTDiscord If excessive verbosity is a problem in translations then that seems like a problem with the UI layout, not necessarily with the content. Not every language can meet arbitrary compactness requirements. 15:41 MinetestBot 02[git] 04TurkeyMcMac -> 03minetest/minetest: Add `minetest.get_mapgen_edges` (#12999) 13b3ffc4b https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/b3ffc4b327622bec63793476191b95bc174bf33c (152022-12-03T15:40:46Z) 15:43 MinetestBot 02[git] 04TurkeyMcMac -> 03minetest/minetest: Let mods choose a forceload limit (#13002) 13f80ea73 https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/f80ea73bfb668b1999bcc134aaa7fc126724e6d6 (152022-12-03T15:41:34Z) 15:43 MinetestBot 02[git] 04TurkeyMcMac -> 03minetest/minetest: Let mods choose a forceload limit (#13002) 13291c42e https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/291c42ed57fb4bfebee2b304602e1d20435d0503 (152022-12-03T15:41:45Z) 16:37 MinetestBot 02[git] 04TurkeyMcMac -> 03minetest/minetest: Fix startup after removing last game (#13015) 13b85831e https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/b85831e389ae62316f2aac1e0b4e2cefb35b3ed7 (152022-12-03T16:35:38Z)
