06:36 MTDiscord  <savilli> Who wanted a lua sandbox escape exploit - #11992 is 99% exploitable

22:01 fluxionary so... max_drop_level in tool_capabilities isn't actually used for anything? it isn't documented as having a use, i can't find any uses of it in the code, the default game, or in any of a whole lot of mods?
22:03 fluxionary nevermind, figured it out https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/48e508052ad477eda1142f08990d523c8b9701ea/doc/lua_api.txt#L1953-L1959
22:24 Pexin      this is unrelated to anything, I just want to comment that I'm discovering the collsion fixes in 5.3 were, in fact, very needed.
22:25 erlehmann  Pexin with what?
22:26 Pexin      well for one thing, in old versions you're jumping multiple times with each jump, because you're still within distance tolerance of the ground
22:26 erlehmann  oh lol
22:26 erlehmann  does this speed you up?
22:27 Pexin      depending on client cpu
22:27 Pexin      means higher jumping, but inconsistent jumping
22:50 rubenwardy Might be worth doing a release candidate, I forgot
22:59 sfan5      better late than never
23:00 erlehmann  how much time would you give it before release? a week?
23:01 sfan5      also reminder #11985 #11976 (though it's unclear if the postgres one is useful)

23:01 erlehmann  btw, given the fact that the vivante GPU messed up its culling, any way to work around it?
23:01 erlehmann  just the backface culling for the player would make it immediately much more useful, but i have no idea what to do instead except for wait on mesa
23:01 sfan5      and #11988

23:05 sfan5      erlehmann: a week would be useful but the inital planned release date is in less than one
23:05 erlehmann  btw i asked fleckenstein to help me figure out more regarding timers on multicore systems (i.e. is setting thread affinity bad or good), but so far he only figured out that on two identical systems that have no invariant_tsr, minetest gets >45fps on linux and 1fps on windows. if anyone knows about intel atom opengl drivers, pls tell.
23:05 rubenwardy given the irr changes in 5.5, might be worth giving it a bit more time
23:06 erlehmann  i think no one will cause a ruckus if the date is further pushed back for a few days, especially if it prevents having to release a bugfix 5.5.1 two weeks later or so.
23:07 sfan5      a bug fix release closely after is in fact a better option than delaying 5.5
23:10 MTDiscord  <Jonathon> no rc1/2/3 with one week between each?
23:10 Pexin      if we're doing reminders, #11969

23:31 erlehmann  luatic, btw, i have not only seen ctrl.up but also ctrl["up"] in real-world code. makes no difference, or does it?
23:33 MTDiscord  <luatic> makes no difference
23:33 erlehmann  good
23:43 rubenwardy sfan5: when you get back, please may I have a Windows build
23:44 rubenwardy for https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=27731
23:47 erlehmann  rubenwardy could you mention the map format change somewhere … maybe under “Known issues”? i expect it to be surprising to many, given that it has been a while since the last map format change.
23:47 erlehmann  or maybe highlights
23:47 erlehmann  i mean, it saves disk space after all
23:49 rubenwardy done
23:50 rubenwardy done 2.0#
23:51 erlehmann  thx
