00:02 PilzAdam he also said: "nvidia, fuck you!"
00:02 hoodedice Indeed
00:03 hoodedice But this is in minetest source code

00:05 Jordach VanessaE, what i spotted was very suspicious: http://i.imgur.com/WVOlOZc.png <- my test, slamacow's model -> http://i.imgur.com/v4VwRel.png
00:05 Jordach see my model's inside elbow joint has that "crease" which is also spotted on slamacow's own model
00:05 VanessaE probably just a coincidence
00:06 hoodedice Means one thing
00:06 Jordach VanessaE, nope, that's a mesh bug
00:06 hoodedice BLENDER IS AWESOME !
00:06 Peacock torvalds = geezer
00:06 Jordach i noticed it in pavel's model too
00:06 Jordach there is no way of physically removing it

00:32 * Jordach needs a machine that can render while i do other things
00:32 Jordach VanessaE, would you like to render some of my render films, eg, just press the movie render button (settings should be saved)

00:51 VanessaE Jordach: "Backups, checks etc.  This would not happen."
00:51 * Jordach needs to know
00:52 VanessaE Jordach: too narrow (side to side), too thin, no lips, too light inside, teeth are just wrong
00:52 VanessaE too angular for the opening also
00:52 VanessaE (note those videos have very detailed mouths)
00:52 Jordach VanessaE, i'm using shadeless blender mode to see inside places where light wouldnt normally go :)
00:52 VanessaE ohhh
00:53 VanessaE let's see it with "real" lighting?
00:53 Jordach that's why the render looked wrong
00:54 Jordach hm, with shadows, it looks wrong (the eyes)
00:55 hoodedice And licencing to EA !
00:55 hoodedice http://nooooooooooooooo.com/
00:56 Jordach hoodedice, VanessaE: should i keep going until we find something we like?

01:29 Peacock still gotta do the 4x4 balconies, but most of the tough/long bits are done lol
01:29 Peacock if i ever start anything this complicated again, shoot me lol
01:30 VanessaE haha
01:30 Peacock actually, my next one is another MVRDV :S lol
01:30 Peacock http://www.dysturb.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/mvrdv2.bmp
01:30 VanessaE *BANG!*

01:31 VanessaE you should be building some of this stuff on my server :)
01:32 Peacock some of the bits are pretty slow on localhost lol can't imagine as a client
01:32 MarkSill I'm working on a modding API that'll add advanced things more easily, if anyone wants to check it out. https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=105321
01:33 Peacock the more of these i do, the less and less i use w/e, theyre just too complicated
01:33 Peacock rectangles are easy, its all the shaping and chiseling lol
01:34 VanessaE Peacock: gives you an excuse to hone your build-by-hand skills :)
01:34 Peacock well it helps when i have a pic to look at, cuz i can follow plans easily enough
01:35 Peacock photomographic memory and all lol
01:36 Peacock well, i got a mountain of dishes ive been putting off all day lol bbl

01:46 kaeza VanessaE, +1 (#-dev)
01:46 kaeza which mod are we talking about here BTW?
01:47 VanessaE kaeza: I've seen it with several mods, most recently DanDuncombe's prefab concrete
01:47 kaeza (assuming there is one :P)
01:47 kaeza ah
01:47 VanessaE it's great that people use github and the like, but always always always always point to the repo, not just the zipball
01:48 kaeza indeed, makes code review a bit easier
01:48 Someguy123 joined #minetest
01:50 * kaeza also tosses the random suggestion to require direct links to archives (e.g. no adfly, no Dropbox "sharing", ...)

01:54 Niften_ Hey.
01:55 VanessaE hi
01:58 Niften_ Anyone out there know about a Minetest working texture pack converter?
01:58 Niften_ I looked on the forums; they took one down. There's only one left and it needs Ruby to run.
01:58 Niften_ I don't know how to use Ruby.
01:58 Niften_ Anyone have any ideas?
02:01 Niften_ Nvm just found it :D:D:D
02:02 Tesseract I have one, but it uses the old (<1.5) format.
02:06 Niften_ Really?
02:06 Niften_ Okay
02:06 Niften_ I'll take it
02:06 Niften_ Can I use it?
02:06 Niften_ @ Tesseract
02:06 Niften_ The one I found is for Linux. :[
02:09 Niften_ Tesseract ?
02:17 Niften_ Tesseract, please.
02:21 NekoGloop WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP.
02:23 bubba joined #minetest
02:27 Niften_ @ NekoGloop Calm down.

02:28 Kacey heh
02:28 bud joined #minetest
02:29 bud what is the link for the do not enter sign and such?
02:30 Tesseract Oh, yes, it works on windows but requires python and PIL.
02:34 Niften_ Okay Tesseract.
02:34 Niften_ Can you link me to it?
02:34 Niften_ Or email it to me at niftenstarblaze@gmail.com
02:36 Tesseract One minute...
02:41 Tesseract Niften_: shadowninja.minetest.net/tc.zip
02:42 Niften_ Aye, thanks.
02:42 Niften_ Does it work on Windows Tesseract ?
02:42 Tesseract Niften_: Yes, if you have python and PIL installed.
02:42 Niften_ Okay.
02:42 Niften_ PIL?
02:42 alex______ joined #minetest
02:43 Niften_ Tesseract: Where do I run the converter?
02:43 ssieb joined #minetest
02:44 Tesseract Niften_: Anywhere, first you have to unzip the MC pack. Then run python texture-convert.py --help
02:47 Niften_ So, there is no specified folder to run it in? Like, in the \Textures\Blocks folder? or just in the main folder of the texturepack Tesseract ?
02:49 Tesseract Niften_: It won't work with new-style texture packs that use the textures/ folder.
02:49 Niften_ oh... so it works by dividing the pack.png or whatever?
02:50 Tesseract You run python texture-convert.py -i <path to MC TP> -o <path to MT TP>
02:50 Tesseract Yes.
02:51 Niften_ Ah.
02:53 Niften_ Downloading PIL xD
02:58 * sdzen runs clearobjects on his server and watches as the monitor turns black three fans engage and the CPU overloads

03:06 Peacock early-mid 90s there was this starwars game i played, graphics were shitty by today's standards
03:06 hoodedice What kind?
03:06 Peacock tried playing goldeneye on an n64 emulator, but the controls were crap on the computer
03:06 Peacock starwars game? it was cockpit of xwing or tie fighter
03:06 hoodedice X WING vs TIE FIGHTER.
03:07 hoodedice I had the original cd
03:07 Peacock there was this other game, i think it was called descent
03:07 hoodedice But dad never got me a joystick
03:07 Peacock i never could play with joysticks (any game)
03:07 Peacock im the kind that breaks those things (and controllers) rather easily lol
03:08 Peacock the type who jerks the controller to right when turning even though back then it didn't do anything lol
03:08 Peacock i get a kick out of watching youtube vids of people flying wii remotes into their plasma screens and busting those huge TVs tho lol
03:11 sdzen haha! thats why I use the little strap
03:16 Peacock ive always hated consoles though lol grow up constantly blowing into catridges to clear the dust and youll get why lol
03:17 Peacock and friends taking off with good catridges and leaving you donkey kong, i had 3 or 4 of those in the end lol

03:25 khonkhortisan I found the "enable ipv6" checkbox while I was upgrading my computer, now minetest runs
03:26 khonkhortisan After reinstalling libXxf86vm to fix a symlink, that is.
03:28 * khonkhortisan heard crickets recently as well, it's unlike this area.
03:30 Peacock lol its not you its the ipv6, i have a hard enough time getting networkmanager to work :P

10:40 DanDuncombe Ok, thanks.
10:40 VanessaE 0 stops time entirely
10:41 DanDuncombe Did you get the PM on the forum from me just now?
10:41 VanessaE nope, haven't checked :)
10:41 DanDuncombe Ok
10:41 PenguinDad DanDuncombe: 1 is real time speed
10:41 DanDuncombe Okay,PenguinDad
10:42 VanessaE DanDuncombe: re: "invalid nodebox version", your client is out of date or you used an old one
10:42 DanDuncombe Which is the latest Windows version then?
10:42 VanessaE dunno :P
10:42 VanessaE http://sfan.sf.funpic.de/minetest-builds/c55/minetest-0.4.7-c893085-win32.7z
10:42 VanessaE try this one?
10:43 VanessaE *checks commit log*
10:43 DanDuncombe Okay,I will, thanks.
10:43 VanessaE that's current with git HEAD.
10:43 DanDuncombe Have you kept the electric fences on the server, but removed the damage?
10:43 VanessaE yup
10:43 VanessaE and HDX supports your mod already :)
10:43 DanDuncombe Thanks :) Working out the textures took ages.
10:44 preludelinux joined #minetest
10:45 DanDuncombe It took me ages to texture the fence end and corner, mainly because I am used to just making square textures, not custom ones for nodeboxes.
10:46 VanessaE I cheated a little and used yours as a template while making mine :)
10:46 DanDuncombe I don'tmind at all :)
10:46 Someguy123 joined #minetest
10:46 VanessaE it was pretty simple - I already had glass, grass, concrete, and a yellow stripe pattern to work with from making them for default and technic mods
10:47 DanDuncombe The main problem is that unless there is support for the textures directly, a texture pack won't change the grass on the side of the concrete with grass.
10:47 VanessaE wanna bet? :)
10:47 VanessaE oh wait
10:47 VanessaE :)
10:47 VanessaE actually, you can easily fix that if you want to
10:47 DanDuncombe How? They are different resolutions so overlay won't work.
10:48 VanessaE er.... yeah
10:48 VanessaE good point :P
10:48 ssieb joined #minetest
10:48 DanDuncombe I tried that already  :(
10:48 Exio4 hi
10:48 DanDuncombe Still,it isn't hard to make the texture pack support the mod directly, I guess.
10:48 VanessaE yup, that part was easy
10:49 DanDuncombe Have you updated colors.txt to support camo mod?
10:49 VanessaE not yet
10:49 DanDuncombe Okay.
10:49 VanessaE I forgot :P
10:50 kaeza sup Exio4
10:50 Exio4 at school
10:50 Exio4 i will have to recode the tun manag kaeza :(
10:50 DanDuncombe Never buy Mc pocket edition- Buy survivalcraft, which is based on Mc pocket edition, but 2x the features, and half the price. It has no multiplayer though.
10:51 VanessaE screw all that :)
10:51 VanessaE I'll stick to free software
10:51 Exio4 bbl
10:52 DanDuncombe It is still awesome. I really meanit.
10:53 DanDuncombe Does anyone here play The Powder Toy?
10:53 Calinou <DanDuncombe> Never buy Mc pocket edition- Buy survivalcraft, which is based on Mc pocket edition, but 2x the features, and half the price. It has no multiplayer though.
10:53 Calinou how are they "based on Mc pocket edition"?
10:53 * VanessaE dozes off a bit...
10:53 Calinou it is illegal to do so
10:54 DanDuncombe It is mostly the same recipes, but with more stuff added, better graphics and half the price.
10:55 VanessaE Calinou: illegal or not I'm still dozing off :P
10:55 VanessaE (jk)
10:55 DanDuncombe Doze away, Vanessa.

11:00 VanessaE "Please don't block the ads :("   <-- hey, here's a news flash for you:  putting a site on the web is cheap.  If you need to push ads, you're doing it wrong.
11:00 kaeza BTW, DanDuncombe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worms_(series)
11:00 VanessaE (to the guy who made that site of course)
11:00 DanDuncombe kaeza- Absolutely nothing like that really.
11:01 DanDuncombe VanessaE, I still don't appear to be connecting.
11:01 VanessaE hm
11:01 VanessaE hold
11:02 VanessaE oh
11:02 VanessaE um, hang on a sec.
11:03 VanessaE dafuq//
11:04 VanessaE there we go
11:04 DanDuncombe VanessaE:  'putting a site on the web is cheap.  If you need to push ads, you're doing it wrong.'    It is a huge website, with the forum, wiki, download, every save ever made, which is alot, every person's account who has has one, and more.
11:04 VanessaE corrupted (zero'ed) player file.
11:04 thexyz VanessaE: hey, here's a news flash for you: you're wrong
11:04 VanessaE um, guys...
11:04 VanessaE I have a website I pay for.  unlimited bandwidth, $10/mo.
11:05 thexyz VanessaE: how many visitors do you have? how much time did you spend creating it?
11:06 thexyz "unlimited bandwidth" is a nice buzzword though, can you link me your hosting provider?
11:06 DanDuncombe But the website is hosting 24592 pages of saves, each with 15 saves on it,plus accounts,wiki and more.
11:06 VanessaE thexyz: not that many visitors by count, but around 50-55 GB/month of usage of that means anything
11:07 VanessaE if*
11:07 thexyz oh, yeah, that's like what I have per day
11:07 VanessaE as for how much time, more than I can remember (but I coded 99% of it by hand)
11:08 DanDuncombe Also, on TPT website, I hadn't even noticed the ads anyway.
11:08 VanessaE either way, bandwidth is cheap and the web was NOT meant for ads.
11:08 DanDuncombe VanessaE, am I on your server now?
11:08 VanessaE lemme check
11:08 DanDuncombe It says I am but I'm not.
11:08 thexyz VanessaE: you're wrong
11:09 DanDuncombe I am always right. I order you to agree now.
11:09 thexyz VanessaE: so, I've built a website; and now I want to earn some moniez from it because I spent my time building it (and time == money), what do I do?
11:09 VanessaE DanDuncombe: yep, I see you online there
11:10 DanDuncombe thexyz: You buy some money.
11:10 thexyz let's say this website is quite useful and gathers about 3k unique visitors per day who spend 11min average on the site
11:10 VanessaE thexyz: how about...get a real job like the rest of the world does?  (this is not to imply you don't already have one)
11:10 thexyz (or is that per visit?)
11:10 VanessaE in other words, time most definitely does NOT equal money unless you choose to equate it.
11:11 thexyz VanessaE: yeah, I have one; but I built this site and now it just eats my monies, so what's the reason to keep it?
11:11 PenguinDad thexyz: use flattr and paypal :P
11:12 VanessaE thexyz: there are a thousand reasons you could come up with to keep a website that costs you money, it's not like I can speak for you personally.
11:12 thexyz PenguinDad: yay, I have paypal donate button, but it doesn't even cover hosting costs
11:12 VanessaE I keep MY website because it works better for me than any other option.  $10/mo is a worthwhile cost for me.
11:12 PilzAdam joined #minetest
11:13 thexyz it serves about 1 million pageviews per month btw
11:13 VanessaE same reason some people have cable TV and others stick to OTA.
11:13 PilzAdam Hello everyone!
11:13 VanessaE morning PA
11:13 thexyz VanessaE: I don't get it though
11:13 sfan5 hi PA
11:13 thexyz VanessaE: also, can you link me to your hosting provider?
11:13 PenguinDad Hi PilzAdam
11:13 thexyz I'm interested in free unlimited bandwith
11:14 DanDuncombe VanessaE: There is a load of lava where I am, is it intentional?
11:14 thexyz so many funny things to do
11:14 VanessaE thexyz: hostgator.com, whom I believe is actually a reseller.
11:14 sfan5 ugh, hostgator
11:14 VanessaE DanDuncombe: most of that is, yes
11:14 VanessaE tI think
11:14 DanDuncombe Ok
11:14 VanessaE -t
11:14 thexyz VanessaE: they only offer "free bandwith" for "web hosting"
11:14 VanessaE hm, maybe not
11:15 VanessaE yes, and?
11:15 DanDuncombe Thanks for adding the prefab mod, BTW.
11:15 VanessaE sure, no prob.
11:15 thexyz though I love "unlimited disk space"
11:16 thexyz I can make a file hosting and pay 3.96$/month, for reals?
11:16 thexyz fuck mega, fuck dropbox
11:16 VanessaE I use it for file hosting and regular webhosting and they've never complained.
11:16 thexyz no, wait
11:16 VanessaE not that I use a metric fuckload of bandwidth like mega does.
11:17 thexyz https://gist.github.com/xyzz/f8cb46a7c8c60f584f31
11:17 thexyz image hostings are disallowed
11:17 thexyz even MUDs/RPGs are disallowed
11:17 thexyz seriously?
11:17 VanessaE maybe on the cheapest plan I guess, of course I don't use mine for that
11:18 thexyz anyway, VanessaE, please stop claiming that hosting is cheap
11:18 VanessaE look, I used to SELL hosting plans.
11:18 VanessaE I know how cheap it is.
11:18 thexyz > Examples of unacceptable material on all Shared and Reseller servers include
11:18 thexyz *all*
11:18 VanessaE maybe where YOU are from it costs out the ass, but not everywhere.
11:19 thexyz VanessaE: okay, so how about 1 gbps dedicated bandwidth?
11:19 PilzAdam thexyz, is there a reason why several entries are 2 times in that list?
11:19 VanessaE been too long since I did it.
11:20 thexyz PilzAdam: there are two lists
11:20 thexyz VanessaE: oh, that's bad
11:20 thexyz yeah, hosting is crazy cheap for my-kitten-websites
11:20 PilzAdam oh, right
11:21 thexyz but gather some visitors and you'll notice that neither free space nor free bandwith exist
11:22 * VanessaE sighs
11:22 thexyz yeah, yeah, now point me to a real free space OR free bandwith hosting plan to render my argument invalid
11:22 thexyz I don't even ask for both!
11:23 VanessaE when did I say free?
11:23 thexyz *unlimited?
11:24 thexyz oh, you said it's cheap
11:24 thexyz alright, so
11:24 thexyz how cheap is cheap?
11:24 VanessaE to me, $10/mo is cheap.
11:24 DanDuncombe Does anyone have the ability to export blends as .x, apart from Jordach?
11:24 thexyz VanessaE: no, no, how I'm talking about bandwith
11:25 thexyz this "hostgator" is bad, its list of disallowed things is way too long
11:25 thexyz and we're talking about websites in general, aren't we?
11:25 DanDuncombe If someone can export it,can they change this to .x please? No animations wanted.  https://www.dropbox.com/s/2ognar0svx0kvmq/barge.blend
11:26 DanDuncombe It is quite simple.
11:26 DanDuncombe It's just I can't export .x with Blender on my laptop.
11:27 DanDuncombe Please, anyone?
11:28 VanessaE hm, looks to be about 2c per GB in larger quantities
11:28 thexyz how much is "larger quantities"?
11:29 VanessaE hard to find much data but the one site I found with some good numbers lists a 500TB commit, presumably that's the ISP's contract price for their peering arrangement.
11:29 DanDuncombe Please, someone?
11:30 VanessaE DanDuncombe: about all I know there is you have to load a plugin into blender to get .x exporting support
11:30 thexyz VanessaE: 500TB is way too much for my imaginary site
11:30 DanDuncombe It is built in, but you have to enable it in User Preferences.
11:30 VanessaE for the ISP I said.  as in their price, not yours.
11:30 DanDuncombe But opening User Preferences doesn't work for me.
11:31 thexyz VanessaE: oh, okay, it'll cost even more for me
11:31 thexyz VanessaE: so what's wrong with website owners putting ads?
11:31 VanessaE roughly double that from what I've been seeing.
11:31 thexyz once again
11:31 thexyz I forgot it
11:31 VanessaE what's wrong?  everything.
11:31 thexyz for example?
11:32 VanessaE there are enough G*d damned ads in every other piece and form of media out there, for one
11:32 thexyz I mean, I spent time building this site, so what's wrong if I earn some money from it?
11:32 VanessaE for two, if the cost of your hypothetical website exceeds what you're willing to shell out per billing cycle, then you should probably be selling useful stuff through that site, not serving up ads.
11:33 VanessaE THAT is my point.
11:33 thexyz VanessaE: it's a "free" website
11:33 VanessaE I don't have a problem with websites that sell stuff.
11:33 thexyz there's nothing to buy here
11:34 thexyz let's say it's just a website about kittens, or news, or something
11:34 VanessaE somehow, the internet seemed to function *just fine* without tons of ads before.
11:34 VanessaE what changed?
11:34 thexyz VanessaE: it got popular?
11:34 thexyz I also don't see "tons of ads" on the page DanDuncombe linked here
11:34 thexyz there's one tiny google ad
11:35 VanessaE then according to economy of scale, shouldn't a popular service/product eventually cost *less* to produce over time?
11:35 VanessaE I didn't see the ad, I was quoting something at the top of the page,.
11:35 VanessaE -,
11:35 Calinou joined #minetest
11:36 DanDuncombe Can someone please export the .blend as .x, please.
11:37 thexyz VanessaE: I don't get this "economy of scale" reference; for sure, connection is faster those days, and traffic is cheaper, I suppose
11:37 DanDuncombe Who thinks Mt should be able to use .blend files, as well as .x?
11:37 thexyz but that's not the point
11:38 Calinou it can't
11:38 thexyz it still costs
11:38 Calinou .blend isn't made for being used in games
11:38 Calinou .x does what we need
11:38 Jordach joined #minetest
11:38 VanessaE thexyz: it's a phrase used here to decribe the general fact that the more popular something gets, the more of that something you can make with each batch (or whatever your production method is), and the cheaper it gets.
11:38 thexyz so, if you're fine with spending your personal money on a site you already spend your personal time on and then get nothing off it it's ok
11:38 * Jordach needs a reboot
11:39 Jordach i hibernated it
11:39 DanDuncombe Jordach, have you exported the .blend yet? Sorry to be impatient.
11:39 Jordach nope
11:39 Jordach i just got out of bed
11:39 thexyz but don't say that ads are evil; it's the only way to make site profitable in many cases
11:39 VanessaE did I say ads were evil?
11:39 VanessaE no.
11:40 VanessaE I said we have too damned many of them as it is.
11:40 thexyz well, yeah, and there's a reason for it
11:40 VanessaE my site is profitable, and I don't even sell anything through it anymore.
11:40 VanessaE (I used to, that's the reason I have my own domain to begin with)
11:41 thexyz that's good for you
11:41 Jordach okay, no re-boot then (screen resolution went wrong)
11:41 DanDuncombe Jordach, when will it be exported? I really am not meaning to be imapatient, it's just I need it for the next release of the prefab mod.
11:42 thexyz but web as we know it wouldn't happen without ads
11:42 thexyz (my personal opinion without facts)
11:42 VanessaE you know what they say about opinions....;)
11:43 DanDuncombe PilzAdam, which bit of your boats mod defines the forward speed?
11:44 thexyz VanessaE: yeah, so you don't agree with it?
11:45 VanessaE thexyz: the web could still have developed to the point we have it at today with or without ads.
11:45 DanDuncombe PilzAdam, I mean, which bit defines the maximum soeed?
11:46 VanessaE does that mean the big sites would necessarily be as fast or able to handle as many users as they do?
11:46 VanessaE of course not.
11:46 thexyz VanessaE: I don't think it could
11:46 VanessaE but to speculate that the web could not have happened without ads...  just doesn't follow.
11:46 thexyz it wouldn't be profitable to make websites
11:46 VanessaE (sorry, getting too tired to find my words now)
11:46 thexyz so no one would invest into it
11:46 VanessaE why not?
11:47 thexyz only sites that sell something would survive
11:47 VanessaE I didn't use a single ad (as we're defining them here, obviously) on my site nor in any other site.  Just info releases once in a great while when I made something new.
11:48 VanessaE and even if I weren't still making a little money (not much, 10 or 20 bucks a month tops), I'd keep it running because the cost to me is outweighed by the benefit I figure it has to others.
11:48 VanessaE (yeah yeah, insert "cut the altruistic bullshit" comment here)
11:48 Jordach joined #minetest
11:49 thexyz yes please
11:49 VanessaE but that's how I was raised.  Not everything has to have a price associated with it.
11:49 thexyz see, you know that "altruistic bullshit" doesn't apply to Big Corps
11:50 Jordach joined #minetest
11:50 VanessaE (pissed my stepdad off to no end, he felt exactly the opposite.  To him, every act worth doing was somehow expected to have some monetary value)
11:50 Jordach logged in via SASL :)
11:51 thexyz and "Not everything has to have a price associated with it." is true, but are you seriously going to work for free?
11:51 DanDuncombe Jordach, how long till the blend is exported?
11:52 VanessaE thexyz: do you see me charging money for the things I do?
11:52 thexyz VanessaE: no, I mean, imagine this being your only job
11:52 VanessaE (aside from the aforementioned hardware residuals, which obviously has a cost)
11:52 thexyz this == making websites which don't make any revenue
11:53 VanessaE *facepalm*
11:53 VanessaE no one said you can't charge for your work, jeez
11:53 thexyz of course you can but who will you charge?
11:54 VanessaE oh I don't know, maybe the clients who contract out to you to make those sites?
11:55 VanessaE unless we're talking about two different things here, your argument just isn't making much sense.
11:55 VanessaE (or I'm too damn tired to "get it")
11:56 thexyz you don't have clients =(
11:56 thexyz because it's not profitable to make sites on the internet since there are no ads
11:56 VanessaE who pays for a website to be made if they don't expect to derive profit from it?
11:57 Calinou <thexyz> but web as we know it wouldn't happen without ads
11:57 Calinou suddenly: adblock 8D
11:57 Calinou it's simple, people who want to view ads can.
11:57 VanessaE I mean shit, we already have a ton of websites out there whose sole purpose is to farm out ads based on perceived searches (you know, those dumbass "What you need, when you need it" link farms)
11:57 thexyz VanessaE: aren't we talking about web-without-ads?
11:58 VanessaE yes, we are.  Either you have a product to sell, or a service to sell, or you put up ads.
11:58 VanessaE guess which one of those three methods of making money is the least egregious to pretty much anyone?
11:58 VanessaE s/least/mods/
11:58 thexyz what if I neither have a product nor a service?
11:58 VanessaE fuck
11:59 VanessaE s/least/most/
11:59 DanDuncombe Jordach, how long until I can have the .x?
11:59 Calinou VanessaE: "content farms" are less efficient these days, and are likely to disappear soon.
11:59 VanessaE if you have neither a product nor a service, and you still expect profit, you're clearly in the wrong field.
11:59 thexyz I mean, this is a website with kitten photos, or any free product
11:59 thexyz I'm not expecting profit
11:59 thexyz but wait
11:59 VanessaE you, the person coding the site, or you, the person RUNNING the site?
12:00 thexyz I'm a service; I'm not "selling a service"
12:00 thexyz s/a/have/
12:00 thexyz shit, wrong replacement
12:01 thexyz I don't want to live in the world without ads -(
12:01 DanDuncombe Please, Jordach?
12:01 VanessaE lemme rephrase - you as in the guy writing the website for Joe Random Kitten Owner, or you as Joe Random Kitten Owner wanting to put his pictures online?
12:01 thexyz all websites which don't sell products or service would vanish
12:01 Jordach thexyz, suddenly: free website hosts
12:01 thexyz VanessaE: the latter
12:01 VanessaE disappear!?
12:02 thexyz Jordach: you don't follow the conversation
12:02 thexyz VanessaE: oh, apart from ones owned by altruistic people
12:02 DanDuncombe Jordach, could you please do the export now?
12:03 VanessaE thexyz: you as Joe Random Kitten Owner who wants to put his pictures online surely doesn't expect to draw a profit from such a thing, less'n you're selling kitten calendars or something of course.
12:03 thexyz VanessaE: if there're ads then sure I do
12:03 VanessaE in which case you either pay for your hosting service like the rest of us or you sell something on the side.
12:05 VanessaE thexyz: so at the end of the day, if you put any effort into something at all, you expect a profit?
12:05 Jordach DanDuncombe, Borderlands 2 > The Universe, and EVERYTHING
12:05 DanDuncombe Errm?
12:06 DanDuncombe How long till the export?
12:06 thexyz VanessaE: no, I mean, many won't even put any effort if they don't expect a profit
12:06 VanessaE DanDuncombe: just so you know, .x isn't the only model format Minetest can use (by way of irrlicht)
12:06 DanDuncombe SHouldn't it only take ~2 minutes?
12:06 thexyz they need money to eat, for example
12:06 DanDuncombe VanessaE, what else can it use?
12:06 VanessaE thexyz: then they can...oh I dunno...  get a job?
12:07 DanDuncombe Apart from b3d
12:07 VanessaE DanDuncombe: check the Irrlicht website, the main page lists the formats.
12:07 DanDuncombe Okay, thanks.
12:07 VanessaE afaik, MT can load any of the listed formats
12:07 thexyz VanessaE: one of us doesn't follow a conversation
12:07 thexyz let me explain it once again
12:07 thexyz all those people get jobs instead of making websites
12:07 VanessaE no, don't.
12:07 thexyz …shall I continue?
12:07 VanessaE I follow perfectly fine.
12:08 thexyz oh, then you're trolling
12:08 VanessaE no, not at all.
12:08 VanessaE again, I'm tired as hell, my words are not coming out right.
12:08 VanessaE look, either you expect a profit from a website you run, or you don't.
12:09 VanessaE and if you expect a profit, either that profit must come from ads, or selling a product, or selling a service.
12:09 thexyz yeah, and most big website owners do
12:09 VanessaE and we're not talking about bit websites.
12:09 VanessaE we are, as you said yourself, talking about Joe Random Kitten Owner.
12:09 thexyz why?
12:10 thexyz oh
12:10 VanessaE big*
12:10 thexyz so, it's ok for big websites to have ads and not ok for small
12:10 thexyz I get it now
12:10 thexyz (actually not)
12:10 VanessaE did I say that?
12:10 VanessaE no.
12:10 thexyz and I thought we were talking about the internet-without-ads
12:11 VanessaE we are, but clearly focused on the small end of things.
12:11 VanessaE but, the model still works regardless of your website's size.
12:11 VanessaE look at Google.  they make money on ads, yeah, but now they're getting into selling a useful service - internet access.
12:12 thexyz but would Google happen in the web-without-ads?
12:12 Calinou useful and insanely fast service, for once :P
12:12 Calinou if only they did it in my city :P
12:12 VanessaE as I recall, they were not exactly inundated with ads when they got their start back in the mid 90's
12:12 VanessaE nor were most of the other popular search engines.
12:13 VanessaE Calinou: as I understand, they've been satisfied with the outcome so far in Kansas City and have been expanding a bit here and there.
12:13 sdzen joined #minetest
12:14 sdzen hey is there a minetest.register_on_startup?
12:14 sdzen or similar?
12:14 thexyz minetest.after
12:14 VanessaE not sure, but I don't think so (there was some recent talk to add such a thing though, wasn't there?)
12:15 thexyz VanessaE: wait, I thought google doesn't make money from their internet access service
12:16 VanessaE thexyz: they must be making something from it, as it's a clean pipe.
12:16 thexyz and as this page http://www.wordstream.com/articles/most-expensive-keywords states 97% is from ads
12:16 VanessaE well no shit, I said that already.
12:16 VanessaE when they got started, they didn't sell or use ads that I remember ever seeing
12:16 VanessaE neither did hardly anyone else
12:17 thexyz and do you think they would be able to continue without putting on ads?
12:17 VanessaE I'm sure they went with ads because it's simply the low-hanging fruit.
12:17 VanessaE they could have found a legit way to make money if they really wanted to.
12:17 kaeza iqualfragile, DanDuncombe this thing is cool
12:17 thexyz oh, yeah, sure
12:18 thexyz of course the could
12:18 thexyz sure, sure
12:18 thexyz they just had to think more
12:18 VanessaE no
12:18 VanessaE they probably already knew of other ways
12:18 VanessaE they chose what they chose because it's the cheapest and simplest way to make money
12:19 VanessaE from a business perspective, it makes perfect sense.
12:19 VanessaE but that doesn't stop people from hating on them, especially since they bought doubleclick.
12:19 VanessaE (and whoever else in the meantime, I've lost track)
12:20 VanessaE In fact I generally don't mind their ads popping up here and there.
12:20 VanessaE (figuratively speaking)
12:20 VanessaE eh, popping up....wrong word to use.
12:20 VanessaE "showing up".
12:20 VanessaE I don't go out of my way to block them.
12:21 theTroy joined #minetest
12:21 VanessaE I go out of my way to block pretty much everything else, because pretty much everything else distracts my eyes from the content I came to the site to read in the first place.
12:22 VanessaE you wanna stick some little unobtrusive ad off in a corner where it won't sit there jiggling, flashing, making audible noise, or floating over the content, fine.  I'll simply ignore it.
12:22 VanessaE even the ads at the top of some of google's search results don't bother me.
12:23 sdzen 08:23:25: ERROR[main]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: ServerError: LuaError: error: /usr/share/minetest/builtin/misc.lua:17: attempt to call field 'func' (a number value)
12:23 sdzen :(
12:23 VanessaE but the moment you try to take my eyes off the content I came to read, especially forcibly via a popover, floater, whatever the hell else they call it, that's when I add a rule to my list (if adblockplus doesn't already catch it)
12:25 VanessaE when I want something, I'll go look for it explicitly via google shopping, eBay, pricewatch, etc.
12:25 DanDuncombe How do I make an entity in Mt have a texture? It is just grey, and won't use the texture I tell it to.

12:54 DanDuncombe Yes, I would mind. Can someone please export it NOW?

13:08 Peacock howdy
13:09 Peacock Peacock.makeCoffee()
13:10 DanDuncombe local function(peacock.makeCoffee{pos , node}),
13:11 thexyz what language is that?
13:12 proller cocklang 0.1
13:12 Peacock the second or the first statement?
13:12 hmmmm joined #minetest
13:12 psedlak joined #minetest
13:12 thexyz second, obviously
13:12 Peacock weird ive never seen a function encloses its arguments with {}
13:13 PenguinDad PenguinDad:drinkCoffee()
13:13 thexyz yeah, that's why i'm asking
13:13 Peacock wait, what the... yeah that makes no sense lol
13:13 thexyz though wait
13:13 thexyz it makes sense in Lua
13:13 jin_xi cant lua omit () with string or table arg?
13:13 thexyz you can A{1, 2}, that'll be equal to A({1, 2})
13:13 thexyz same for strings, yeah
13:13 Peacock function() yeah, makeCoffee{} though?
13:14 proller it was in perl in 198* 8)
13:14 Peacock you can do alot of funky things in lua, but a one line multi-dim add to a table, you cannot lol
13:14 thexyz I thought that'd look cool in stress, for example, pos{1, 2, 3} will give you a "smart" pos which can sum, sub, mul, etc, etc..
13:15 DanDuncombe In GIMP can you select an area of an image, copy,and paste it elsewhere?
13:15 thexyz Peacock: what's a "one line multi-dim add to a table"?
13:15 Calinou yes you can, DanDuncombe
13:15 Calinou select, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, move selection :P
13:15 Peacock thats when you do what i tried yesterday table[123][123][321] = true
13:16 thexyz Peacock: but you can do that
13:16 Peacock ittl throw an index error
13:16 jin_xi thexyz: are you keeping stress uptodate and using it for serious mods?
13:16 thexyz you just have to override __newindex
13:16 kaeza peacock because table[123][123] is nil
13:16 thexyz jin_xi: I'm still thinking about its design
13:16 kaeza so you cannot access table[123][123][321]
13:17 thexyz kaeza: you can
13:17 kaeza (actually because table[123])
13:17 Peacock yeah you have to do table[123] = {}, table[123][123]= {}, table[123][123][321] = true
13:17 kaeza +is nil
13:17 thexyz you override __newindex and make it create a table when it doesn't exist
13:17 Peacock override __newindex?
13:17 kaeza thexyz, clever
13:17 thexyz metatables are cool
13:17 thexyz that's why you should love Lua
13:18 Peacock metatables, i read about that for lua classes
13:18 thexyz it's simple yet powerful
13:18 thexyz Peacock: they can be used for many things
13:18 kaeza indeed
13:19 thexyz also, closures are powerful as well
13:19 jin_xi im surprised how much i like lua
13:19 Peacock any code examples on stackex or else where?
13:19 thexyz you can use them for classes and then get methods like `object.function()` work as you want it to
13:19 kaeza you can implement classes (with inheritance and all) with metatables
13:19 thexyz (i.e. function() will know about object)
13:19 jin_xi only "learnt" it for use with mt

13:28 Peacock dan you got those funny air pockets that don't go away either?
13:28 DanDuncombe Yep
13:28 Peacock i added the two lines PA suggested, but that only took care of the surface air pockets
13:28 DanDuncombe What do you mean proller
13:28 Peacock underwater ones still stick around
13:28 DanDuncombe I don't mind them
13:28 Peacock (two lines minetest.conf)
13:28 proller DanDuncombe, underwater bubbles
13:28 Peacock its irritating my ocd lol
13:28 DanDuncombe I reminds me of farts in swimming pools.
13:29 DanDuncombe *It
13:29 Calinou lol
13:30 Peacock the nodes with use_texture_alpha, they tend to flicked when placed against or in water, is that to be expected?
13:30 Peacock *flicker
13:33 DanDuncombe What do you guys think of the concrete barge?
13:33 Peacock could use more sea chanties :P
13:33 DanDuncombe Sea chanties?
13:36 Peacock well it looks like a boat :P tried it with the airship mod?
13:36 DanDuncombe Airship mod?
13:36 Peacock makes the whole thing move
13:36 DanDuncombe I mean, why?
13:36 DanDuncombe It is an entity
13:37 Peacock the whole thing is already an entity?
13:37 DanDuncombe A single thing.
13:37 DanDuncombe The whole thing is one big entity, yes.
13:37 Peacock not bad
13:38 DanDuncombe It is meant to look like nodesI think. I found it on the forum, on an old post with the boats mod.
13:41 DanDuncombe VanessaE: Prefab mod update
13:52 sdzen worldedit question, how does one get 0.4.8?

14:26 NekoGloop All of the pings! ALL OF THEM!
14:27 DanDuncombe I know there is already the Minetestmapper written in C++, but ot would be cool if someone wrote it as an .exe, which you click on to open, then check boxes for the various functions, select the world, type a map name and click a button called 'Map!'   This would be so cool, and if possible should be included in default Windows Minetest,
14:27 sfan5 "wrote it as an .exe"
14:27 DanDuncombe I mean an app which you can open.
14:27 NekoGloop Dan is stupid AND a troll
14:27 DanDuncombe Rather than command line.
14:27 sfan5 so you plan to use a hexeditor to place the plain binary code there
14:28 sfan5 :D

15:00 PilzAdam "It isn't even designed to be installed.." "Okay, how can I install it?"

15:51 DanDuncombe Help? I put all the files from the KolibriOS download on a cd, rebooted with the disk in the computer, and it started spinning. It then stopped and Windows booted. Why?
15:51 DanDuncombe That is, how do I install kolibrios alongside Windows?
15:52 sfan5 eh
15:52 sfan5 have you googled?
15:56 DanDuncombe I have found a way now.

16:57 Jordach heh - X11 problems?

17:00 DanDuncombe Does anyone know how to get internet in KalibriOS?
17:00 webdesigner97 if so: 93.221.80.39 port 30401
17:00 webdesigner97 but I'm afk now, eating
17:02 Jordach webdesigner97, use 16px textures dammit
17:02 JamesTait Jordach, XMir, more likely.
17:02 webdesigner97 back in 20 min, sry
17:02 Jordach JamesTait, ah
17:03 JamesTait But it was working fine until I installed Chromium, so I still blame Chromium.
17:03 DanDuncombe What is the web browser called in KalibriOS?
17:04 Calinou JamesTait: chromium ftw
17:04 Calinou but well, staff hates new software, they all use debian stable :D
17:04 Jordach DanDuncombe, iceweasel>
17:05 DanDuncombe The browser is called iceweasel?
17:05 Calinou rebranded firefox
17:06 JamesTait Calinou, true.  I'm using the *old* XMir on the *old* Ubuntu Saucy. :-P
17:06 DanDuncombe But I triedrunning 'firefox' and it said that program didn't exist.
17:06 Calinou JamesTait: lel, XMir
17:06 Calinou enjoy your lack of proprietary drivers
17:07 JamesTait I am!
17:07 Jordach Calinou: 1) Does minetest run? 2) Did you enjoy it? 3) Does it work as it should?
17:07 JamesTait I'm thrilled to finally be rid of that useless pile of nvidia junk and actually have a boot screen that fits my display and virtual terminals again.
17:07 Calinou also, >staff >uses Ubuntu
17:08 Calinou JamesTait: nouveau = 24 fps, nvidia = 690 fps
17:08 Calinou on sauerbraten with max settings
17:08 Calinou and only GL 3.1 instead of 4.4
17:08 JamesTait Calinou, I can do my job, I can watch videos, I can play minetest.  I'm happy. ;)
17:08 Calinou minetest at 20 FPS?
17:09 Exio4 nouveau sucks, because nvidia wants that
17:09 Exio4 if you want to use the opensource gpu driver, you need an AMD gpu, or an intel one
17:09 * Jordach agrees
17:09 Calinou or hire slaves to code nouveau for you
17:10 JamesTait Calinou, minetest at 40fps, full-screen.  Good enough for me.
17:10 Jordach the only time i had to forcibly use nouveau was when i nvidia driver upgrade managed to remove the conf for x11
17:10 Jordach had a*
17:10 Calinou while your card can do 80 easily?
17:10 Calinou and with shaders and that stuff
17:10 Calinou Jordach: fun fact: using nvidia-xconfig breaks stuff as of 13.04 for me
17:10 Jordach Calinou, same here
17:11 TorpedoSkyline joined #minetest
17:11 DanDuncombe Can I get Minetest on Kalibrios do you think?
17:12 JamesTait And 80fps gets me what?  My eyes can't register frames that quickly. :)
17:12 Calinou 60 fps, yes
17:12 Calinou and it ensures you don't drop below 60 fps
17:12 Calinou minimum FPS do matter
17:12 ch98 joined #minetest
17:14 JamesTait Had I been given more time I wouldn't be stuck with an nvidia card in the first place.  I only ended up with this because my old laptop (ATI graphics) died 3 days before I started working for Canonical and I had to get a replacement fast. :-/
17:15 JamesTait With the weekend in between, mail order wasn't a realistic option, so I got the best laptop my money would buy from PC World.
17:15 Calinou >started working for Canonical
17:15 Calinou prepare for Jarate and Mad Milk throws
17:16 webdesigner97 Jordach: I would need to redraw many textures, and I'm not going to do this because I'm bad at graphics. And I think that the textures look nice and aren't too big
17:17 JamesTait Calinou, anyway, that was 3 years ago.  The laptop has just about lasted and is due for replacement.  No more nvidia for me! :)
17:18 * Jordach wonders if most of the staff work for canonical
17:18 JamesTait (Though when my wife inherits this laptop, she'll get nouveau and like it)
17:18 Jordach a #ubuntu op got a staffer to k-line someone
17:18 Calinou >wife >open source software
17:19 Calinou hopefully you don't have "hardcore gamer" friends
17:19 JamesTait Not really.  I know a few people who like to play a few games on their consoles.
17:22 JamesTait Jordach, I don't know all the staff, but I'm the only one I know of who works for Canonical.
17:22 Jordach huh
17:22 JamesTait That's not to say there aren't others, though.

17:30 kaeza Calinou, kill Unity, 95% of bugs gone
17:31 kaeza or at least you regain as much CPU time :P
17:31 Jordach i call bullshit
17:35 Peacock i keep hearing how xfce is slower on ubuntu than any other dist (just hearsay, dont taze me bro)
17:36 khor joined #minetest
17:36 Calinou hearsay, too much phoronix/reddit probably
17:36 Calinou it's very fast; if it isn't, get a SSD
17:37 Peacock ugh, maybe im old, but for me SSD's are for laptops and netbooks, since they tend to take a beating :p
17:37 Calinou they aren't
17:37 Calinou again hearsay...
17:37 Peacock in any case, i want an external 5tb
17:37 Calinou don't listen to people without veryfing their reputation
17:37 Peacock if i did that i'd never vote
17:37 Calinou doesn't exist, max capacity for non-enterprise is 4TB
17:37 Calinou lol
17:38 Peacock i know, im waiting for the 5tb lol
17:38 Peacock too many rigs to start installing 1-2tbs in each
17:39 Peacock and ill never open up the netbook to install anything (not that there's room)
17:40 Jordach lol, netbook

17:52 * Jordach has a headache
17:52 * Jordach sticks on rainymood.com
17:53 Peacock just a headache? lucky, i had a huge-ass migraine after having a Falling Skies type nightmare lol
17:54 FreeFull Toilet paper converter?
17:55 Peacock oh shit, my compact stairs work, i can make stairwells 5x1 with a floor height of 2.5 :D
17:55 FreeFull Peacock: What's good is a small SSD as the system drive and a large HDD for everything else
17:56 Peacock yeah but w/ linux i find myself simply reinstalling the whole thing rather than waste half a weekend tackling any given problem lol
17:56 Peacock nothing a new image won't fix
17:57 Peacock especially when i had those glibc troubles with arch
17:57 Calinou FreeFull: if you don't need space, full SSD will do fine, and be less noisy
17:58 FreeFull Calinou: HDDs aren't very loud nowadays
17:58 Peacock and a high enough RPM helps too
17:59 Calinou FreeFull: I mean 7200rpm oens
17:59 Calinou 5400rpm is only good at storage
17:59 Calinou and I can stil hear a 5400rpm
17:59 Calinou I care about noise, only noisy part of my PC is my graphics card :|
17:59 Jordach Calinou, that's because you have ears of a bat
18:00 Peacock mind you, i resintalled linux on a 7yr old 160gb more times than i can count decimal places in pi, so it lasted a while :p
18:00 Calinou I don't destroy my ears by going to concerts and stuff
18:00 Peacock fuck concerts lol screaming girls
18:01 Peacock the sound system doesn't kill me, the little girls do lol
18:01 JamesTait Calinou, your graphics card is only noisy because of your zillion fps! :-P
18:01 * sokomine removes calinous graphics card from his pc and puts it next to it - there, quiet again! :-)
18:02 Calinou yes and stuntrally runs at 5 FPS instead of 60
18:02 jin_xi joined #minetest
18:03 sokomine play minetest. that ought to work very fine with your in-cpu-gpu
18:04 Calinou I play more than one game, and Minetest certainly doesn't run at 60 FPS with AA/AF on an HD3000
18:04 JamesTait If gaming's your thing, I can totally understand going for the absolute best drivers possible that give you incredible frame rates.  I used to have to use binary blobs for my wireless - I'm a pragmatist, I want my machine to work.
18:05 Calinou the open source drivers could give competitive performance, but noone seems to care about it
18:06 JamesTait But I'm not really a gamer, so I'd rather have a boot splash screen where I can actually see the text box where I enter my disk decryption passphrase, and have virtual terminals just in case, y'know, XMir or something crashes.  The frame rate isn't what's important to me.
18:06 JamesTait Horses for courses.
18:06 Peacock aint touching this convo with a 20ft pole lol
18:06 JamesTait Of course, if nvidia would stop being asses about it, everyone could benefit, but, y'know.
18:06 FreeFull I am using open-source drivers right now because I got fed up with the propertiary crashiness
18:06 sokomine aa/af? what's that? usually turning off shaders help
18:06 FreeFull But they do have slower 3D
18:08 Peacock gaming aside, the best graphics driver is also essential if all you have for a TV is actually a computer :p
18:08 sokomine i'm using a celeron g1610 right now without an extra graphics card. runs fine and quiet under mt
18:09 Calinou I disabled plymouth, and never use consoles
18:09 Peacock plymouth? go pontiac :p
18:10 Calinou and, lolencryption
18:10 sokomine why that? tv does not demand much regarding graphics. unless it's hd and/or encrypted. but most of the time, with tv, the most important tool is the switch-sound-off-option in emergencies like advertisement
18:10 Calinou there are consoles with nvidia, they're just ugly :P
18:10 webdesigner97 joined #minetest
18:10 Calinou sokomine: anti-aliasing/anisotropic filtering
18:10 JamesTait TV works better for me with nouveau than it ever did with nvidia.
18:10 Calinou makes stuff look like how it's supposed to look, not have jagged edges and blurred textures
18:10 Peacock true story: when Patrick Stewart dressed up as Locutus for the first time he said "I am Locutus of Borg, have you considered buying a Pontiac?" </random>
18:10 Calinou >video accel with nouveau
18:11 JamesTait I can actually plug a TV into the HDMI port and not have the laptop crash.
18:11 Calinou HDMI user problems
18:11 Calinou the H.264 of video outputs
18:11 JamesTait And then flip windows over onto the TV from my laptop and back.
18:12 webdesigner97 Anyone else interested in testting my trafficlight?
18:12 JamesTait Never worked right under nvidia.  I'm glad to be rid of it.

18:13 JamesTait I'll probably be around later.
18:14 sokomine ah. yes, there was some talk about antialiassing and such. don't know if it looks that much diffrent...at least not for me

19:31 hoodedice Dan, sure why not?
19:31 Peacock i havent done the 4x4 balconies yet, but for most intents, its done lol
19:31 DanDuncombe Also, if someone does a gui minetestmapper for Windows, I will include it.
19:34 DanDuncombe Or at least a batch file that prompts you for world name and map name.
19:35 Calinou noone is likely to do that soon
19:35 Calinou prompting is easier to do
19:35 Peacock there are too few arguments to minetestmapper to warrant a gui
19:35 DanDuncombe How to make a batch file then that asks for world name and map name then?
19:35 Peacock basically input and output names that's it
19:35 hoodedice Windoze users need GUI for every other thing
19:35 Peacock though... with lua menus, it should be easy as pie
19:36 DanDuncombe I can make the batch easy, just need to know what to put in it.
19:36 Calinou yep, the windows command line sucks.
19:36 Calinou it's ugly, too
19:37 Calinou even on windows 8 :P
19:37 hoodedice Windows has a command line?
19:37 DanDuncombe But what do I put in the batch file?
