09:41 TenPlus1 hi folks :P
10:43 MTDiscord <wwar> Hello there
10:43 MTDiscord <wwar> Can not see if you left the chat already
10:49 TenPlus1 Hi wwar, how's it going dude ?
10:49 TenPlus1 was winter proofing my living room :P
10:49 MTDiscord <wwar> Good right here and yourself
10:50 TenPlus1 getting there slow but sure :P  lol
10:51 TenPlus1 what you been up to ?
11:00 TenPlus1 been in contact with Shinji, finishing touches to the move in place and hopefully soon server will be up and active (after a huge update) :P
11:02 MTDiscord <wwar> I have been doing some real life stuff lately, the server is down but i'd probably not join because of that
11:02 MTDiscord <wwar> apologise for late answering
11:03 MTDiscord <wwar> >after a huge update i will be waiting for that
11:03 TenPlus1 yeah, we all gotta deal with real life soon enough :)  lol
11:04 TenPlus1 looking for a career change here atm
11:04 MTDiscord <wwar> going good so far?
11:05 TenPlus1 got clients for I.T. work that keep me trundling along, long term haven't decided yet :)
11:05 MTDiscord <wwar> i wish you Good luck with that
11:06 MTDiscord <wwar> I have been learning some french also
11:06 TenPlus1 thanks dude.  Wow french, what sparked that ?
11:06 MTDiscord <wwar> Has lots of speakers, has a vocabulary which i can relate to that of english
11:07 TenPlus1 learned french in school years back, sadly it's not something I've ever used in life
11:07 MTDiscord <wwar> oh, do you still remember stuff?
11:08 TenPlus1 bits but nothing I can really use
11:08 MTDiscord <wwar> For now i am less likely to find native speakers either
11:08 TenPlus1 I know more tagalog than french now :)  hehe
11:08 MTDiscord <wwar> Oh nice heheh
11:08 MTDiscord <wwar> Will that help you with jobs by any chance? :þ
11:09 TenPlus1 you never know, I hosted a few karaoke events of late and I do know that filipino's enjoy a sing song :D
11:09 MTDiscord <wwar> That good
11:10 MTDiscord <wwar> Another language is always helpful to be learned
11:10 TenPlus1 and the one's I know personally love to party :)
11:10 TenPlus1 yeah, would be nice if schools taught either english or spanish as a 2nd language so everyone could communicate in some way
11:11 MTDiscord <wwar> never got to meet guys from Philippines outside of the server heh
11:11 MTDiscord <wwar> that is... less likely to happen, i guess
11:12 MTDiscord <wwar> I mean, as far as i can see, schools do not teach languages effectively
11:12 TenPlus1 just ethernet cabling that's the hold up, once that's installed server will be updated, tested and live.  so many players asking for a date :P
11:12 MTDiscord <Niklp> Hi Ten
11:12 TenPlus1 they should, it rewires the brain a certain way and makes you a better thinker :D
11:12 TenPlus1 hey Niklp, how's it going ?
11:13 MTDiscord <wwar> What i have seen and heared were  that they only teach some grammar rules which are not really helpful without speaking practice which most schools seem to lack
11:13 MTDiscord <wwar> yeah, but when it is only memorising stuff, students wont like it
11:13 TenPlus1 my final test for french was having a 30 minute conversation with the teacher, and that was difficult :P
11:14 MTDiscord <wwar> now that must had been helpful
11:14 TenPlus1 and the best part was french sci-fi comics, those rocked :)
11:14 TenPlus1 the whole "Valerian" collection and "Aeon Flux"
11:15 MTDiscord <Niklp> fine, your mobs smooth rotating fix works very good:)
11:15 MTDiscord <wwar> I remember, in school, they told us to memorise "Reported Speech" and how the sentences work
11:15 TenPlus1 structure is important, although a lot of feminine/masculine words to remember
11:15 MTDiscord <wwar> It was a big table showing how Tenses change, memorising this would never help as you will not be able to use that while speaking
11:16 TenPlus1 ooh, an Aeon Flux mod would be an interesting thing in Minetest...  might work on that when the Pie mod issue is sorted
11:16 MTDiscord <wwar> yeah french does have some genders in the nouns
11:17 MTDiscord <wwar> i wonder how that mod would work
11:17 TenPlus1 keywords for most languages are important, even if you speak a broken version e.g. "eat", "sleep", "hospital", "toilet", "money" etc
11:17 TenPlus1 you seen the cartoons ? they ahve many interesting tech, designs, clothes for player etc
11:18 MTDiscord <wwar> Yeah and speaking was always left behind, right here, in language classes
11:18 MTDiscord <wwar> nope i had not seen it
11:18 TenPlus1 worth a look, the cartoon itself not the live action movie, that wasnt as good
11:19 MTDiscord <wwar> When i searched it i found a movie about assassinating someone
11:19 TenPlus1 lol, plot of the movie but thankfully not the series, that was waaaay more interesting
11:20 TenPlus1 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111873/
11:21 MTDiscord <wwar> I know a few countries and Monica is definitely not one of them
11:21 TenPlus1 hehe
11:21 TenPlus1 been winter proofing my living room today, dark blinds, candle heater etc. for the supposed power cuts we are due in UK
11:22 MTDiscord <wwar> Oh, i didnt know that was coming
11:22 TenPlus1 never believe everything the news tells us, but just incase I suppose
11:22 TenPlus1 that and quickly trying to redo Pie cake textures, was taken down cuase they looked too much like minecraft base cake o.O
11:23 MTDiscord <wwar> didnt read any news regarding the british weather lately hehe
11:23 MTDiscord <wwar> I guess that should have been done because someone would take it down for that sooner or later
11:23 TenPlus1 you wouldnt belive how many ppl I know are kitting their roods with solar as well
11:24 TenPlus1 yeah, uploaded new textures earlier, waiting on admin approving and adding it back to contentdb for players to download
11:24 TenPlus1 I was gonna add the cupcakes we use on Xanadu to the mod, and even though I have full permission to use those textures I'm worried now just incase
11:25 MTDiscord <wwar> Nah keep the cupcake for us
11:25 MTDiscord <wwar> dont let them have it outside of the server
11:25 TenPlus1 ehehe, so many custom items for server, players on forums wondering what we use :P
11:25 MTDiscord <wwar> Cdb team seems to not trust permissions given to creators
11:26 TenPlus1 yeah, that's what worries me, the Pie mod is already worrying me and I dont need that for other mods
11:26 MTDiscord <wwar> maybe it is best to not add these items in mods which you put in cdb
11:27 MTDiscord <wwar> well if you fixed the issue then probably they will put it back once they have time yeah
11:27 TenPlus1 yeah, was going to add new plants and painterlypack.net team gave me permission to use textures, but you're right
11:27 MTDiscord <wwar> Maybe you could publish these somewhere else
11:28 TenPlus1 might just keep them on notabug.org for now and create a forum post
11:29 MTDiscord <wwar> Btw ethereal got many updates and i guess the screenshot on cdb does not show how good it is right niw
11:29 MTDiscord <wwar> now^
11:29 MTDiscord <wwar> maybe change that one when you get the tome
11:29 MTDiscord <wwar> time^ err
11:29 TenPlus1 yeah I really need to update a few screenshots here and there
11:29 TenPlus1 find a good world seed and make it look amazing :D
11:30 MTDiscord <wwar> Do not have mt on this phone and the other isnt nearby :þ
11:31 MTDiscord <wwar> I only have minetest on my outdated tablet hehe
11:31 TenPlus1 got the latest .dev version so might enable shadows and bloom and make it fancy
11:32 TenPlus1 just finding the time, and speaking of which I gotta go for now :)  work beckons
11:33 TenPlus1 take care dude, laters, cya all
11:33 MTDiscord <wwar> Cya o/
11:35 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> "Cdb team seems to not trust permissions given to creators" Copyright infringement and pinky promise permission to use assets not under a free license is not allowed on ContentDB
11:37 MTDiscord <wwar> yeah i guess, that is close to what i said but with some decorations and words related to licenses which would never cross my mind to use

15:05 Desour joined #minetest-hub
16:05 freelikegnu hey Desour
16:05 Desour hello
16:06 Desour do u have something for me freelikegnu ?
16:07 freelikegnu no just saying hi :D
16:07 proller joined #minetest-hub
16:09 Desour ok :9
16:09 Desour :)*
16:10 freelikegnu also just looking at your new item pickup callback
16:14 freelikegnu does this also work for items picked up by walking over them?
16:20 Desour for item pickup mods that call the punch function in the builtin item entity def, yes
16:21 Desour in other words, yes. https://github.com/minetest-mods/item_drop/blob/8bebf6324efa4bdb3f99c77300f3ef328b849e83/init.lua#L151
16:24 freelikegnu oh wow I had no idea punch had to be called to pickup items, but I guess that is up to the item entity def?
16:24 Desour how would you pickup items instead?
16:25 freelikegnu I'm not terribly familiar with the item pickup systems
16:27 freelikegnu but having a callback for pickup would certainly be useful to me, such as picking up an enchanted or cursed item that may affect a player
16:28 Desour and it exists now, after years \o/
16:28 freelikegnu TYVM :D
16:29 Desour but note that it's not necessarily too useful for curse items. you can't track inventory movements with it
19:20 MTDiscord <Warr1024> The CDB team trusts permission granted to creators, assuming said creators have actual proof of permission, and that that permission can be relied on by all downstream creators, i.e. if somebody granted you permission to use but not sublicense, then you can't claim your project is FOSS.
19:21 MTDiscord <Warr1024> Also, the forums, and pretty much every hosting platform like the forums, github, gitlab, notabug, etc either must enforce copyright, or will have it enforced for them by their own hosting provider or by the courts, so you can't just shop around for somewhere else to host your infringing content, it will eventually get taken down from anywhere.
