16:22 TenPlus1 Hi folks
16:23 MTDiscord <luatic> Hi
16:23 TenPlus1 hey lunatic
16:23 rubenwardy lmao
16:23 MTDiscord <luatic> If I correct you, I'll have to mute myself for a week
16:23 TenPlus1 hi ruben
16:24 rubenwardy technically not grammar
16:24 MTDiscord <luatic> But a typo
16:24 MTDiscord <luatic> I included typos
16:24 TenPlus1 ? lunatic a bot ?
16:25 MTDiscord <luatic> no
16:25 TenPlus1 lol, just checking :D
16:26 MTDiscord <luatic> my name is a reference to the Lua programming language lol
16:26 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> Domo Arigato Mista Roboto
16:26 rubenwardy "lunatic" and "lua" are both named after the moon as well
16:26 rubenwardy so it's apt
16:26 MTDiscord <luatic> yeah ik
16:27 rubenwardy it's a really good name, even despite people thinking you're crazy
16:27 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> I assume people use to believe that the moon had an effect on how crazy people are then?
16:27 MTDiscord <luatic> Yes
16:28 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> the crazy things people believe
16:28 MTDiscord <luatic> lunatics were thought to pray to the moon or something
16:28 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> bahahaha
16:28 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> "despite people thinking you're crazy" I thought that was intentional... crazy for lua or something
16:28 TenPlus1 the moon having an effect on personality is sadly true (worked at a care home)
16:28 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> I would call you a lunatic if you prayed to the sun
16:28 MTDiscord <luatic> pray is not the right word, "anbeten"
16:28 Desour oh hi BS+1
16:28 MTDiscord <luatic> lol
16:29 MTDiscord <luatic> Nah, BS + 1 is 11.0f
16:29 TenPlus1 lol
16:29 MTDiscord <luatic> > The word stems from the Latin "luna" meaning moon, with the "atic" suffix meaning "of the kind of", according to the Oxford English Dictionary. The OED says the word originally referred to a kind of insanity supposedly dependent on the phases of the moon.
16:29 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> odd
16:29 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> the people who believe that are lunatics themselves
16:30 MTDiscord <luatic> nah, not quite
16:30 MTDiscord <luatic> as TenPlus1 has correctly pointed out, the moon does have an effect
16:30 TenPlus1 it has been studied, and 13 years working in a care home has shown me the proof
16:30 MTDiscord <luatic> a correlation is statistically proven, although the causation is not quite clear
16:31 TenPlus1 full moon and full waning moon both have their own effects on people
16:31 MTDiscord <luatic> probably something to do with the gravitational pull of the moon? who knows
16:31 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> probably yanks their brains around
16:31 TenPlus1 hehe
16:31 MTDiscord <luatic> yeah, something psychological is always possible
16:32 MTDiscord <luatic> would be interesting to see if it still occurs even if the people are unaware that it is full moon
16:32 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> the body goes down and the brain goes up
16:32 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> simple gravity 😏
16:34 MTDiscord <PrairieWind> or is it complex gravity...considering its two different masses effecting one being
16:35 TenPlus1 the gravity pull of the earth and the moon will always effect blood/liquid around the body and circulation/mood
16:40 TenPlus1 if minetest had moon phases added to the engine we could easily make mobs more aggressive during a full moon :)  that'd be fun
16:41 MTDiscord <luatic> TenPlus1: Minetest can have moon phases ;)
16:41 MTDiscord <luatic> See https://github.com/t-affeldt/minetest_moon_phase
16:42 MTDiscord <luatic> I don't see why this should be an engine feature - not every game or mod needs this, and it can be implemented by mods mostly fine
16:42 TenPlus1 ooooooh, nice...   I never noticed that mod before :)  thanks lunatic
16:44 TenPlus1 you're right though, most things can easily be done by mods, although I would still love the engine to be able to handle node-face text to speed up signs
16:50 TenPlus1 Has anyone figured an easy way to reduce map size easily ?
16:50 rubenwardy node face text is something that's supported by us. numberZero made a PR, but abandoned it :(
16:51 TenPlus1 ouch, that woudl have been awesome to add
16:52 TenPlus1 the graphical side of minetest is coming along great, shadows were awesome and bloom effects looked amazing
16:56 TenPlus1 chore time, laters all o/
