00:00 tumeninodes pushing 5.0.0 to release, just for the sake of it..., would be a big mistake
00:01 Peppy it would also be a relief for server owners not to have to answer questions from players about non supported apps
00:01 Peppy so please, don't rush :)
00:01 Jordach like you know, a set of api calls to control the sun, moon and stars ;)
00:02 tumeninodes such a tease
00:03 tumeninodes I want to be able to animate solar flares on the Sun..., :P and cycles for both... (me the over the last year)
00:04 tumeninodes and shooting stars
00:06 tumeninodes and mtmeta accessible via the TP folder
00:06 tumeninodes and....
00:07 Peppy hammocks ?
00:08 tumeninodes I've mentioned those before yes... but I have an excuse... I'm psychotic
00:10 tumeninodes disclaimer: no banana hammocks
00:21 shivajiva there is a time in a developing mind where voxel games are perfect, they give transferable assets so MT will keep a user base, it might not be the original target audience but it will hold  up for some time imo
00:27 shivajiva (not in response to tumeninodes...but the more I look xD)
00:31 Jordach shivajiva, here's what 15k stars look like with my almost complete set_sun/moon/stars APIs
00:31 Jordach https://i.imgur.com/SRpvj8f.png
00:31 Jordach i have a few things to tidy up, like the ruddy sunrise texture
00:34 tumeninodes how freakin gorgeous is that?! That is one sexy sky
00:34 Jordach plot twist, that's a textured skybox with the dynamic components
00:35 tumeninodes excellent
00:35 Jordach you heard me, 15k stars :D
00:36 Jordach and still hitting a wonderful 60fps at 1080p+
00:36 tumeninodes now just add a 2d sky box  with transparency to rotate just inside of that ;)
00:36 tumeninodes nice
00:36 Jordach i'd have to fix the regular skybox for that tho
00:36 tumeninodes ... and the problem is??? xD
00:36 tumeninodes j/k
00:37 Jordach i've also enabled custom scaling of sun, moon and stars
00:37 tumeninodes I know you an do it
00:37 tumeninodes *c
00:38 Jordach https://gist.github.com/Jordach/8c2a18497eb73bf4324d546d479b0069
00:41 shivajiva from a distance a tree looks like a tree even though it's made from blocks yet the mt sun and moon are square :')
00:41 Jordach i forget i enabled flickering stars
00:41 shivajiva nice though Jordach ;)
00:42 tumeninodes Jordach, this new sky is better than getting a bunch of new shaders
00:43 tumeninodes this addition will be one which is very noticeable and commented on once it merges
00:44 paramat just make sure to put the horizon in the correct place ;)
00:44 Jordach paramat, doesn't touch it
00:44 Jordach i did include custom dynamic sky colours on purpose
00:44 tumeninodes hahaha
00:45 Jordach everything is stable, and i've wrote three new packet handlers and three new packets from 0x5a-5c
00:45 Jordach and it's still compatible with the older set _sky, minus fancies
00:45 Jordach i'd love to re-write sky to behave like nodes
00:46 tumeninodes yes... would be nice to be able to set the sky colour. For instance, if using my ambiguity TP... so awesome if I could throw a quick script.txt in there to set the sky to B&W
00:46 Jordach but that's something far off from now
00:46 Jordach it's Lua API, so mods required
00:46 tumeninodes we need to be able to call .lua scripts from within  a TP dammit
00:47 tumeninodes or at least the needed data
00:48 * Jordach coughs
00:48 Jordach inb4 CSM
00:48 tumeninodes , to be able to *set animations, *use modifiers, *set sky colours, etc... without requiring a mod
00:48 tumeninodes nuuuuuuuuuuu
00:49 tumeninodes all right from within the TP folder
00:49 tumeninodes ... r e v o l u t i o n a r y ...
01:01 rud0lf toilet paper?
01:01 rud0lf why would you fold it?
01:01 Jordach extra ply my dude

20:26 rubenwardy Fixer: #7962
20:26 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7962 -- Content store: Fix missing screenshot in package view dialog by random-geek
20:26 Fixer rubenwardy: will try in a sec
20:27 Fixer no packages could be retrieved, shit
20:29 rubenwardy close and reopen
20:29 Fixer restart helped
20:29 Fixer full game restart
20:29 rubenwardy there's a PR open to fix that, but no reviews yet :)
20:29 rubenwardy yeah
20:29 Fixer close and open did not help
20:29 rubenwardy I meant close and reopen Minetest
20:29 Fixer yay, screenshots are working
20:30 Fixer rubenwardy: is there package description somewhere? "view" is waaay too empty https://i.imgur.com/nhUEV8Z.png
20:30 rubenwardy that's also fixed by a PR
20:31 Fixer rubenwardy: one that is not reviewed yet?
20:31 rubenwardy yes
20:31 Fixer rubenwardy: i want tags/categories in this too
20:31 Fixer so you can browse/find easier
20:31 rubenwardy :(
20:31 Fixer rubenwardy: 74 fucking pages...
20:31 rubenwardy I'll be working on making it work properly first
20:32 rubenwardy and reliably
20:32 rubenwardy and increasing items per page
20:32 rubenwardy and adding dep support
20:33 Fixer one more issue closed, nice
20:34 Fixer left texture is so bad... https://content.minetest.net/uploads/8453xqGIEG.png
20:34 Fixer ^ VanessaE
20:35 Jordach the DE is the bad part, texture is fine :^)
20:35 VanessaE :P
20:36 VanessaE pull requests welcome if you hate the texture :P
20:37 VanessaE But if you hate my DE theme, fuck off :)
20:37 Fixer VanessaE: it is offset on different sides, is it possible to allign it?
20:37 Fixer VanessaE: KDE 3.5?
20:38 VanessaE sure... If someone makes a better texture :)
20:38 rubenwardy needs a crop
20:38 rubenwardy :)
20:38 VanessaE It's themed like KDE 3.5 but it's actually XFCE
20:38 Fixer lool
20:39 Fixer xfce is everywhere
20:39 VanessaE XFCE or gtfo :)
20:39 Fixer i always liked xfce
20:39 Jordach i prefer KDE 5
20:39 Fixer or openbox
20:40 Jordach i'm liking plasma as of recent
20:40 Jordach it looks like a current OS, but with classic win95 design choices
20:40 Fixer the way they raped Gnome3, ..., also it is written in js? wtf....ck
20:41 Fixer i still see complaints on linux forums about laggy animation in gnome, damn, it is 2018.... 2 0 1 8
20:42 VanessaE gnome can fuck off and die
20:42 Fixer they also taken gtk3 hostage
20:42 Jordach gimped toolkit :^)
20:42 Fixer with their "no systray" bullshit, but some programmers want systray...
20:42 VanessaE gtk3 can die too afaic
20:43 Jordach QT is the future tho
20:43 Fixer eh
20:43 Fixer gtk3 makes me cringe, sorry
20:43 Fixer but
20:43 Jordach developing for QT doesn't make me want to cleave my arms off and drink a CIA chemical cocktail afterwards
20:43 Fixer since Win8/10 debucle/disaster, I'm now accept there is no more unified UI for anything...
20:44 Fixer every bitch wants custom UI, and also redesign it every year, fuck you
20:44 VanessaE yup
20:44 Fixer just lay off those hip-c----suckers and employ QA people back
20:44 rubenwardy GTK isn't bad
20:44 Jordach thats because we should never have let EMCAscript get where it is
20:44 Fixer i'm so pissed
20:45 Jordach we should've kept it to text manipulation only
20:45 rubenwardy I'm using it with GTKmm for coursework
20:45 rubenwardy it's also not the best
20:45 VanessaE rubenwardy: gtk is fine.  gtk*3* is shit
20:45 Fixer at first it was cringy in linux, about plethora of different UIs everywhere, motif, gtk/2/3, qt1/2/3/4/5, theming problems, now windows has this shit too
20:45 rubenwardy I also tried Qt, it did feel better
20:46 rubenwardy from a user perspective or a developer prospective, VanessaE?
20:46 VanessaE As a user.
20:47 Fixer GTK is also weird as fuck on windows
20:47 Jordach remember, using web technologies for programs kills braincells
20:47 Jordach https://twitter.com/iamdevloper/status/926458505355235328?lang=en
20:47 Fixer Jordach: written by brain-dead
20:47 VanessaE Every time someone ports their program to gtk3 it tuns to shit
20:47 VanessaE turns*
20:47 benrob0329 joined #minetest-hub
20:47 Fixer web-tech is written by brain-dead
20:48 Fixer for example, look at gtk2 cherrytree program in windows, first it still uses unix structure, ok, no problem
20:48 Fixer but
20:48 Fixer look into bin
20:49 Fixer 33 exe files...
20:49 Fixer dbus...
20:49 Fixer gtk-demo
20:49 Fixer what?
20:49 Fixer so program that you can probably fit in 10 mb takes 100mb
20:50 Fixer https://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/
20:50 Fixer Jordach: slack is that like mIRC, but with enlarged pe... memory use?
20:51 Jordach suprisingly for an electron app, discord uses bugger all memory from what i've seen on win64 and linux
20:51 Jordach it's stayed within sub 150mb range
20:51 Fixer i was annoyed at skype using 100 mb of ram, i'm worried to open electron-skype...
20:51 Jordach (considering it does a ton of real time preloading)
20:51 Jordach [20:51] <Jordach> suprisingly for an electron app, discord uses bugger all memory from what i've seen on win64 and linux
20:51 Jordach [20:51] <Jordach> it's stayed within sub 150mb range
20:51 Jordach [20:51] <Fixer> i was annoyed at skype using 100 mb of ram
20:51 Jordach ffffffff
20:51 Fixer skype is shit
20:52 Fixer i know
20:52 Fixer gives me cringe
20:52 Jordach i hate that middle mouse bullshit
20:52 Jordach worlds worst UX
20:53 Fixer best served in 2018
20:53 Fixer when you don't remember amazing power of some decade old tools and resort to using this... shit
20:55 Fixer new and fancy two buttons electron-js written something that also runs in browser but I don't want too
20:55 Fixer except running that brogue-js thing, that is nice, but buggy, for everything else, don't rape me with electron please
20:58 Fixer Jordach: was never a programmer, but i have bad tendency to want to type some basic code into ZX emulator, it this a cringe alert? procrastination saves me though
21:00 Fixer https://twitter.com/iamdevloper/status/1069697344780808192
21:01 Fixer loool https://twitter.com/lukejones/status/1068147951279710208

22:07 VanessaE "unfortunately minetest has stopped"... righg at startup, on a fresh install. tied 0.4.17.2 from the play store, and the *.1 apk from the website
22:08 rubenwardy try this: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=42&amp;t=21526
22:08 VanessaE right*, tried*
22:08 rubenwardy also, would be good to have a backtrace
22:08 rubenwardy if you're able to install adb
22:08 rubenwardy sudo apt install adb
22:08 rubenwardy adb logcat
22:08 rubenwardy with device connected on USB
22:09 rubenwardy you may have to do    sudo usermod -aG udev USERNAME    and log out and in again before   adb logcat
22:09 VanessaE pc/internet is dead, so no apt.  also, I need 0.4.17, not 5.0.0
22:09 rubenwardy would be helpful to see if 5.0 also crashes for
22:09 rubenwardy you
22:10 VanessaE hmm wair
22:10 VanessaE gah
22:10 VanessaE typing on a phone sucks
22:11 VanessaE I could try that 5.0 build later though.
22:11 VanessaE hmm.. seems I have adb on the pc already>..
22:12 rubenwardy adb logcat | grep "net.minetest.minetest"
22:12 rubenwardy may be better
22:12 rubenwardy !c len("net.minetest.minetest:*")
22:12 MinetestBot 23
22:12 rubenwardy hmm, right at the limit
22:13 rubenwardy adb has a disgusting CLI :)
22:15 VanessaE first i have to get `adb logcat` to see the phone....
22:15 rubenwardy oh fun
22:15 rubenwardy did you do the group thing?
22:15 rubenwardy sudo usermod -aG udev USERNAME
22:15 rubenwardy you'll need to log in and out again
22:16 rubenwardy I think you could also do     sudo adb logcat     if you're feeling lazy
22:16 rubenwardy but, warranty disclaimer
22:16 rubenwardy IANAAP
22:17 VanessaE "-waiting for device-"
22:17 rubenwardy you need to also unlock enable developer mode on the device
22:17 VanessaE ah.  how?
22:17 rubenwardy Settings -> About -> Tap "Build Number" 10 times until it says "Developer mode unlocked"
22:17 rubenwardy then go to Settings -> Developers and enable USB Debugging
22:19 VanessaE bingo.
22:19 VanessaE im in
22:19 rubenwardy sweet
22:22 VanessaE ok lemme see iv i can get this to a pastebin...
22:22 VanessaE if*
22:27 VanessaE https://pastebin.com/mm0vVCNk
22:28 VanessaE please tell me that worked  :P
22:28 rubenwardy yes
22:29 rubenwardy can't see any open issues for that
22:31 VanessaE G*d, how do people tolerate these damn phones for "real work"
22:32 VanessaE bad weath3r
22:32 VanessaE ....
22:33 VanessaE bad weather killed internet access in my area.  been down for about 28 hours now :-/
22:42 VanessaE anyway, rubenwardy, could I convince you to file an issue for that for me? ;)
22:42 rubenwardy lol
22:44 rubenwardy #7963
22:44 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7963 -- Android: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "stderr" referenced by "libgmp.so"
22:45 VanessaE going from 4 decent screens and mechanical keybord to this... postage stamp of a phone screen with onscreen keyboard is...  aaaaaaaaahhhhhhggg
22:45 VanessaE thanks :)
22:52 Jordach VanessaE, four screeens? how about a 3x3 matrix ;)
22:53 VanessaE im not rich :P
22:53 Jordach lmao, my note 8 is fucking too big and i want a smaller phone
22:53 VanessaE besides, 4 is my GPU's limit
22:54 VanessaE this is just a Galaxy S4
22:55 Jordach ah
22:55 Jordach my phones 6.5" display is monstrous, it dwarfs someones little nokia 3310 :)
22:57 VanessaE i could tolerate it easier if I could just use my keyboard and one screen with this phone somehow
22:57 Jordach ironically my phone has the horsepower to enter a full desktop mode with full kb/m support when docked
22:57 Jordach https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_DeX
22:58 Jordach "Samsung also announced "Linux on Galaxy", which allows use of a compatible Linux distribution"
22:58 Jordach jesus fucking christ
22:58 VanessaE ...
22:59 Jordach quite impressive considering it's inside a bloody phone
23:00 VanessaE meh
23:00 VanessaE :P
23:02 Jordach i mean full desktop linux on a phone that can make calls and return to droid is quite fancy in of itself
23:09 Fixer 6.5" plus 24V 20kg POWERBANK
23:14 Fixer Calinou: https://www.romerogames.ie/sigil/
23:30 BillyS Is it possible to have an inventory with potentially infinite size?
23:33 Jordach yes
23:34 BillyS Interesting ...
23:34 BillyS (A node inventory I'm taking about)
