06:41 Extex     What does #11550 imply? Does this let the server update what files a player uses at will? Like make it so one player sees a different texture to everyone else?

10:43 sfan5     you can't update a texture that already exists, but you can send everyone a different new texture
10:44 sfan5     (where different = not everyone sees the same texture)
17:19 Pexin     if I want to submit a one-line PR quickfix, what's the current protocol before submitting it?  I just want to remove ) as a weblink delimiter, it's been causing problems for sufficient number of people
17:21 sfan5     a PR usually
17:21 sfan5     but if you can convince a coredev to push it directly that also works
17:21 Pexin     michael nesmith, peter tork, micky dolenz, and gene simmons fall into a dimension door to acheron..
17:21 Pexin     dammit clipboard

17:31 sfan5     done
17:31 Pexin     :]
17:33 sfan5     oh you opened a PR anyway, that would have been easier for me
17:33 Pexin     oops
20:58 pgimeno   hm, ")" is certainly not standard as part of URLs, but many browsers copy it to the clipboard nevertheless (I guess because of wikipedia's widespread use)
20:59 pgimeno   using delimiters to detect the end of URLs sounds pretty broken
20:59 pgimeno   that's a task for a regular expression, or dedicated code that simulates one
21:00 pgimeno   IMO a ")" should only be included if the URL already contains a "(", which should in turn only be allowed after a "_"
21:01 pgimeno   I'm constantly suffering of bad URL parsing in HexChat
21:01 pgimeno   it's pretty annoying
21:11 Pexin     pgimeno: there's the correct way to do it, and there's the cheap way. for this use, cheap was good enough  :]
21:18 pgimeno   I don't see what makes minetest chat links different from any other links where parsing the URL wrong may result in a wrong URL being opened, so I don't see what makes cheap acceptable over correct for this case
21:25 pgimeno   not sure if the implication is that minetest is used by just a handful of people and therefore it's not worth taking the effort to do things right, or that no one expects minetest to do the right thing... either way it sounds contemptuous
22:17 hecks     to anyone who cares, I've been gone for a week because of crunch at work and I might be gone for a couple more; consider me on vacation, my opengl and irr PRs are not abandoned and I'll resume them when I'm back
22:20 sfan5     ah I wanted to type something before he left
22:20 sfan5     but sure, it's okay
22:21 pgimeno   if it's urgent, maybe you can PM him on the forum
