04:19 hoodedice Wow.
04:19 hoodedice And you *HAD* to leak it in IRC
04:20 hoodedice Wait. THAT IP address is the cloak
04:20 hoodedice gateway/web/freenode/ip.92.99.132.190 is now your hidden host (set by syn.)
04:22 us_0gb So that's not your IP address then?

04:34 us|0gb Sorry, technical difficulties.
04:37 Miner_48er joined #minetest
04:56 reacktor joined #minetest
04:56 reacktor o/
04:56 reacktor By the way, whoever advised me to try FreeBSD, thank you.
04:56 us|0gb Hello!
04:56 us|0gb So it's working well for you?
04:56 reacktor Yep. Not much different from Net-.
04:57 us|0gb WHat is Net-?
04:57 reacktor NetBSD.
04:57 us|0gb Ah. I never got a working BSD system up myself.
04:57 reacktor I thought there wre more differences.
04:57 reacktor us|0gb: uh? Any BSD is usually working out of the box. The base system is.
04:59 us|0gb FreeBSD had no desktop, you had to install that yourself, and PC-BSD wouldn't even install.
04:59 us|0gb No worries though.
04:59 reacktor Desktop is installed from ports/packages.
05:00 us|0gb Yeah, but before even learning the commands, you have to jump right in and use commands? That's not for me. I understand there are advantages for some use cases, but not my use case.
05:00 reacktor If they had desktop in the base, the OS would be called Debian.
05:02 reacktor And would be as inflexible.
05:02 us|0gb Inflexible in what way?
05:02 reacktor You would have to deinstall a shitload of bloat packages to get the OS slim.
05:02 reacktor Because you never know what the end user wants.
05:03 us|0gb True enough. Like I said, I understand some use cases are better off with no desktop.
05:03 arsdragonfly joined #minetest
05:03 reacktor What desktop is suitable for a housewife is not by far suitable for a scientist.
05:03 us|0gb Though no desktop at all is less friendly to newcomers.
05:03 us|0gb Not that everyone is a newcomer.
05:03 reacktor It's not. Newcomers should first reac the manual eh.
05:03 reacktor s/reac/read/
05:04 reacktor That's why proper documentation is good to have.
05:05 us|0gb I learn by doing. While I do read manuals when I want to learn, I first try something out.
05:05 reacktor In fact, installing desktop is done in two easy steps: compiling X and compiling the DE.
05:05 us|0gb With no desktop, I have to learn it all right away before starting. Or a chunk of it, anyway.
05:05 us|0gb Compiling. Ha. Asking newbies to compile.
05:06 reacktor Meh. Trying before understanding is a sure way to mess things up.
05:06 reacktor And compiling is automated.
05:06 us|0gb Messing up is part of how you learn. Or is a part of how I learn, anyway.
05:08 reacktor The build environment will set all variables for you. You only have to type in two-three commands. The rest will be taken care of and you can do something else meanwhile.
05:10 reacktor But why mess up if you can read first and make it smooth sailing?
05:10 us|0gb And after you install the new system, where are you going to find these commands? You can't exactly pull up a web browser and look for them until after you've entered them.
05:11 reacktor That's why you need to read _before_ you do it.
05:11 us|0gb BSD is awesome. BUt it isn't for everyone.
05:11 reacktor In fact, any OS expects users to read the manual.
05:11 us|0gb How are you supposed to know before that you'll even need them?
05:11 reacktor Even Debian.
05:11 reacktor us|0gb: and that's why you especially need to read it.
05:11 reacktor Because else you never know what happens.
05:13 reacktor Probably the only OS that doesn't is Windows. And it's already found its niche among people who don't ever want to learn.
05:14 us|0gb Many popular GNU/Linux distributions also run fine out of the box, but also have a graphical environment and browser to look up how to set up anything that isn't already.
05:14 reacktor Ha.
05:14 reacktor They do usually come with a lot of bloated programs.
05:14 reacktor Which you have to uninstall.
05:14 us|0gb BSD is great, but not everone wants to or has time to read manuals.
05:14 reacktor And risk getting a unusable OS after reboot.
05:15 us|0gb Less bloated than Windows, but yes, you end up with things you don't want. That's the trade-off. Which is why bare-bones-by-default systems are great for some people.
05:16 hoodedice bloated?
05:16 reacktor A friend of mine installed Ubuntu. Its GUI is so unreliable it died right after he updated it.
05:16 hoodedice lol
05:16 reacktor Yes. Bloated.
05:16 hoodedice They lack many of the more useful progs
05:16 us|0gb I think BSD is great. OpenBSD is said to be the most secure system available. I just don't want to use it myself.
05:16 reacktor hoodedice: yes, bloated and useless
05:16 hoodedice DEs might be. The progs are useful
05:16 hoodedice useless?
05:16 hoodedice *fanboys*
05:16 reacktor Useless.
05:17 reacktor Who wants GEANY anyway?
05:17 * hoodedice leaves
05:17 reacktor Or that... GNOME-MPLAYER.
05:17 reacktor They're castrated.
05:17 * us|0gb sees hoodedice lurking around the corner
05:18 hoodedice *Fox: I did it !! I jumped over the dog!!!
05:18 hoodedice (What does the fox say?)
05:18 reacktor Fawkes?
05:19 us|0gb Hmm. I opened the command line, but now I forgot what I wanted from it ...
05:19 us|0gb Oh well. If it's imortant, it'll come to me.
05:19 us|0gb *important
05:20 reacktor Pwned. You probably have to stroll trough overcomplicated menus in order to open a terminal. That's why you forget it.
05:20 hoodedice (Ctrl+I)
05:20 hoodedice (In Xubuntu, bottom bar)
05:21 us|0gb No, I forgot because I opened it about 30 minutes ago and got distracted typing on IRC.
05:21 reacktor Oh. Even more pwned.
05:21 us|0gb How so?
05:22 us|0gb I try not to keep people waiting for a response.
05:22 hoodedice Me too.
05:24 reacktor I don't.
05:24 reacktor That's why I prefer mail over IRC nowadays.
05:24 reacktor -_-
05:24 reacktor Speaking of which. Why don't Minetest have mailing lists?
05:25 us|0gb Because too much is said to be worth wading through all that mail.
05:25 hoodedice lol
05:25 us|0gb I mean, look at how much has been said in the last hour.
05:25 arsdragonfly joined #minetest
05:25 us|0gb That's a lot of emails.
05:26 reacktor True that. But that's the point. It wouldn't be said if we were writing to each other instead.
05:26 reacktor Mail has higher SNR than IRC.
05:26 us|0gb That would be less fun and more business-like.
05:26 hoodedice This isn't Linux
05:26 reacktor And IRC has nigher SNR than... say, instant messaging.
05:26 hoodedice This is Minetest
05:26 hoodedice It's a game
05:26 hoodedice Not a kernel
05:27 reacktor Still. Not everyone likes having to open a web browser to write to somewhere.
05:27 * us|0gb gets to work building a Minetest kernel so he can build an operating system around the game
05:27 reacktor And not everyone likes to remember yet another password.
05:28 hoodedice (Still. Not everyone likes having to open a web browser to write to somewhere.)
05:28 hoodedice (Open XChat)
05:28 arsdragonfly Minetest in minetest
05:28 us|0gb reacktor, I email through a browser and IRC through a client (assuming I can use "IRC" as a verb). So not opening a browser, for me, would mean the option that isn't email.
05:28 reacktor Lame.
05:29 us|0gb I tried to set up my mail client. Even with a manual, I failed.
05:29 reacktor Most OS usually have built-in mail functionality.
05:29 hoodedice Like Thunderbird of something
05:29 hoodedice *or
05:29 us|0gb I tried setting up that built-in mail functionality. I failed.
05:29 reacktor Not IRC or web browser. They come in packages.
05:29 reacktor I'm not talking about third-party mail clients.
05:30 reacktor Most UNIX have perfectly working built-in mail.
05:30 us|0gb Hmm. I think this is pre-installed third party. I don't even know where to find a system email system and I'm not convinced setting that up would be any easier.
05:30 reacktor You just need to hook it up to your web mailbox.
05:31 us|0gb That's the part I failed to do.
05:31 us|0gb I couldn't get it to connect.
05:31 reacktor Because you tried to do it with that mozilla program.
05:31 us|0gb No, I did not.
05:31 reacktor You need to read your OS's manual on how to set up system mail, that's it.
05:31 us|0gb I didn't use Thunderbird.
05:32 reacktor Oh?
05:32 us|0gb I tried reading the manual, and still failed to set it up.
05:32 reacktor Then there is no pleasing you!
05:32 us|0gb I fail to see how me failing is supposed to please me.
05:33 reacktor Error.
05:33 us|0gb Okay ... this is the oddest thing. I opened the mail client again, and now it works without any further trying from me.
05:34 us|0gb Well, I guess no more Gmail ads then.
05:35 reacktor And what's the big problem with ads? You can block them anytime with proper software.
05:35 us|0gb Why is Bing sending me emails about Football? Why should I care about Bing or football?
05:35 reacktor Some sites are dickheads for detecting it and asking you to disable it.
05:35 hoodedice ...
05:36 us|0gb I don't really mind ads, it was just an observation.
05:36 us|0gb The main thing I'll avoid is the stupid Google redirects.
05:36 reacktor Oh.
05:36 reacktor These... "please wait until you be redirected".
05:36 reacktor Lame.
05:36 us|0gb Google formats my email with redirects, presumably so they can tell which links in my email I click.
05:36 reacktor Why not just do it right away without that "please wait" thing?
05:37 hoodedice ?
05:37 hoodedice Do they do that? Never noticed...
05:37 reacktor Oh these. You confused me.
05:37 reacktor us|0gb: that's called "click tracking", not redirects.
05:37 us|0gb Actually, it does it seamlessly now without that message, unless youhave your browser set to not automatically redirect, as I do, to prevent unknown redirects.
05:38 reacktor Google would know anyway: Firefox tells them what pages you visit.
05:38 us|0gb It tracks the click, but also redirects to the intended target.
05:38 us|0gb It's a 302 redirect, or something.
05:39 us|0gb I don't are if they track me. I do care if they point the link at the incorrect page then redirect to the correct one.

05:47 hoodedice Any punks in here?
05:51 reacktor Pukes?
05:54 hoodedice -.-
05:55 reacktor By the way. Where'd the FreeBSD package maintainer of Minetest go?
05:55 reacktor The package seems outdated.
05:56 us|0gb The Debian/*buntu/Trisquel/Mint package is also outdated.
05:56 reacktor Yep.
05:57 hoodedice 0.4.7?
05:58 us|0gb I think in Debian, it's at 0.4.6, the rest I think are at 0.3.1.
05:58 hoodedice https://code.launchpad.net/~minetestdevs/+archive/stable/+packages
05:58 hoodedice Gets 0.4.7 as stable
05:59 us|0gb I meant the one in the repositories. I use the PPA one, but it isn't what I meant.
05:59 reacktor Why not fetch the latest when building from sources?
05:59 hoodedice repos? Which?
05:59 reacktor 0.4.7 is about a year old, isn't it?
05:59 us|0gb No, I haven't been gone that long.
05:59 reacktor I mean, source packages, at least here, fetch 0.4.7.
06:00 us|0gb It was here before I left a few months ago.
06:00 us|0gb I don't know anything about source packages.
06:00 hoodedice 0.4.7 is the last stable.
06:00 hoodedice Git has some new features
06:00 hoodedice (And is awesomer)
06:02 reacktor So. Is there a reliable way to fetch the repo from some fixed tine point?
06:02 reacktor s/tine/time/
06:02 hoodedice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53RdNYwImYc : Cleanest live performance I've ever seen
06:03 reacktor ?
06:03 hoodedice Most bands suck at live events
06:04 hoodedice This is THE only live performance where the song still retains its details
06:14 * hoodedice killed the IRC
06:17 us|0gb reacktor, you can browse through past versions of the repo, yes.
06:17 us|0gb You'd need the commit ID to reliably download from a particular point in time, but that can be found.
06:21 OldCoder joined #minetest
06:36 xiong I guess it's time for me to check my understanding again, VanessaE. I have a network containing a mese sorting tube with one branch marked for granite and other items; and a couple other branches "on" but free -- unmarked. My understanding was that the granite would always take the marked junction in preference to any one free. No?
06:37 xiong When the granite goes past this junction, as it has done at least a couple dozen times now, it bangs around a lot of places where it's allowed, hits a number of spots where it's forbidden to continue, and eventually sails past the marked branch yet again. What can be the cause?
06:44 Calinou joined #minetest
06:48 reacktor us|0gb: so why not use a certain commit ID for packages?
06:48 reacktor Why stick to 0.4.7?
06:48 Hunterz joined #minetest
06:51 us|0gb 0.4.7 is stable, but most of the commits IDs reference unstable versions.
06:51 xiong Also, VanessaE, you said pipeworks does no look-ahead; the item decides which way to go based only on the junction, not on junctions further beyond. But then, why do I see the granite bouncing from a junction that would allow it to go straight ahead? It's as if it knows it will eventually be sent back.
07:00 xiong I'd just like to know how to tell the difference between a bug I should try to reproduce and report or my failure to set up properly, which I should avoid and correct.
07:00 xiong Now it seems the granite has vanished altogether.

07:07 xiong I'm starting to think two things: One, that I should never alter the settings of a pipeworks system while it contains items, or they may be lost; which argues against non-locality; and two, that any given pipe should not be made to carry items in opposing directions -- that no item should meet the same junction from more than one direction.

07:30 reacktor Are there glass-pane-like blocks in any mod?
07:31 Calinou reacktor: xpanes
07:31 us|0gb Like, flat?
07:31 reacktor Also, is there thin wall like Minecraft "cobblestone wall"?
07:31 Calinou no
07:31 us|0gb YEah, I think Vanessa has something in homedecor like that as well.
07:31 Calinou I tried making that once and failed :'(
07:31 reacktor For the recrod, I've seen slabs appearing oriented vertically when editing with WE.
07:31 reacktor s/rod/ord/
07:31 us|0gb What's hard about thin walls?
07:32 reacktor Is that a bug or a feature?
07:32 reacktor us|0gb: nothing. I used them for one construction. I have to resort to fence blocks for the time being.
07:32 nore GNADev|zRokh, there: http://dev.minetest.net/index.php?title=minetest.get_modnames&curid=41&diff=1557&oldid=59
07:32 Calinou you can use vertical slabs and wall stairs
07:33 Calinou moreblocks
07:33 Calinou not that pretty, but works
07:34 GNADev|zRokh lol :D
07:34 GNADev|zRokh Calinou, fix it, plz :D
07:34 us|0gb reacktor, Calinou said Calinou  tried, and failed, to make them.
07:35 reacktor Calinou: vertical slabs are not in the middle of the block. I could try them, though.
07:35 reacktor So, are vertical slabs in moreblocks?
07:36 reacktor Now come I've seen them without moreblocks?
07:36 reacktor And is it safe to use them?
07:36 reacktor I mean, compatibility-wise.
07:36 * GNADev|zRokh is going to play D-Pad Hero 2
07:36 Calinou they are not in the middle yes
07:36 Calinou they still look wall-y :p
07:37 Calinou reacktor: screwdriver can rotate the vanilla slabs/stairs I think
07:37 Calinou moreblocks has panels, microblocks and "alternate stairs" though
07:38 us|0gb Not the slabs, at least not in the stable version.
07:38 Calinou oh, only the sairs
07:38 Calinou stairs

08:04 reacktor Is it possible to turn off one-click block destruction?
08:04 reacktor It conflicts with WE's //p set
08:05 CraigyDavi Should I delete the player files and see if that helps?

12:01 VanessaE hi all
12:01 VanessaE xiong: I don't know why it was doing that (passing-up of legit destinations) on your pipeworks install.
12:02 VanessaE the only bug I notice, to that end, is some minor unpredictability when an item hits a T junction.
12:02 VanessaE nore: care to comment?
12:03 nore that? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/946
12:04 nore that? https://github.com/VanessaE/pipeworks/issues/52
12:04 nore sorry, I thought I had copied the link
12:05 nore VanessaE, the mese tube bug?
12:06 VanessaE nore: well that too, but I meant this:
12:06 VanessaE [10-06 02:41] <xiong> I guess it's time for me to check my understanding again, VanessaE. I have a network containing a mese sorting tube with one branch marked for granite and other items; and a couple other branches "on" but free -- unmarked. My understanding was that the granite would always take the marked junction in preference to any one free. No?
12:06 VanessaE [10-06 02:43] <xiong> When the granite goes past this junction, as it has done at least a couple dozen times now, it bangs around a lot of places where it's allowed, hits a number of spots where it's forbidden to continue, and eventually sails past the marked branch yet again. What can be the cause?
12:07 nore got the mese bugn I don't  know where it could come from (server lag?)
12:07 VanessaE I can only assume he has a big problem with lag or his pipeworks is woefully outdated
12:07 whodeadeyes joined #minetest
12:07 whodeadeyes So...
12:08 VanessaE so?
12:08 nore and yes, it looks like a lot of lag (the item will finally disappear and go where t should be)
12:09 VanessaE nore: this is why we need a proper feature to force entities to stop moving after a certain distance and heading.
12:09 VanessaE at leas then lag will show as items not moving at all rather than items going off in weird directions'
12:09 VanessaE client-side that is
12:09 nore that is why we need client-side prediction code
12:25 VanessaE (in the case of pipeworks, that distance would always be 1m)

13:40 VanessaE he wants to redefine default furnaces to have an animated fire texture.
13:41 nore he should do that like it is done with pipeworks (clone the node, modify it and re-register)

16:56 Hunterz what mods must have installed to show unified_inventory? i heve this mod on the server, but does not show proper gui :(
16:57 Hunterz is this mod conflicted with inventory_plus ?
16:57 VanessaE unified inventory should work fine by itself
16:57 VanessaE an yes, it does
16:57 Hunterz ok thanks
16:57 fairiestoy Hey guys. I have a little question to server admins: How many problems do you have with lags and server freezes ( related to the lag issue ) ?
16:58 Hunterz freezes i have sometimes
16:59 Calinou Hunterz: server freezes? or client?
16:59 PilzAdam fairiestoy, generally you can say the more mods with dynamic stuff you have the more lag will clients have
17:00 fairiestoy PilzAdam: But what bothers me: The lag increases with time. it starts with lag of about 3.2 and ends up mostly with 8 to 15 when the server freezes
17:00 PilzAdam what mods do you have installed?
17:01 rsiska joined #minetest
17:01 fairiestoy Mesecons, technic i think are the most significant ones. And all dependencies. A protection mod, currency, moretrees
17:02 PilzAdam moretrees is to blame then, I guess
17:02 PilzAdam it locks up the whole server during mapgen
17:04 fairiestoy im though not sure if the moretrees generation isn't disabled atm. iirc the server admin mentioned something like that
17:04 PilzAdam are there any complex mesecons circuits?
17:05 PilzAdam for technic Im not sure, but IIRC there were some parts that are quite heavy
17:05 PilzAdam VanessaE had to disable parts of it on her server
17:06 fairiestoy okay, so its mostly a issue caused by mods? Since some members mentioned memory leaks caused by the server binary and such
17:07 Peacock does the moretrees spawn trees on gen or place saplings?
17:07 PilzAdam memory leaks should be fixed

17:13 Calinou PilzAdam uses Kubuntu
17:14 Calinou xubuntu is better :>
17:14 * Calinou gallops away
17:14 Peacock debian is better
17:14 * Peacock gallops away
17:14 * john_minetest gallops away
17:14 Peacock lol
17:15 Calinou best pony*
17:15 Peacock suddenly, 3 musketeers
17:15 Calinou debian has no proprietary firmware, makes it hard to install proprietary drivers, is old, doesn't care about desktop much
17:15 Calinou also community is quite arrogant
17:15 Calinou their documentation is worse too, and they have less packages
17:15 Peacock im running the proprietary drivers on my computer, you're thinking of trisquel
17:15 ruskie slackware FTW
17:16 ruskie since we are throwing out random distros
17:16 Peacock what OSS community isn't arrogant to some degree? lol
17:16 ruskie john_minetest, it's too big?
17:16 nore <Calinou> debian has no proprietary firmware <- wrong: I use the non-free repository
17:16 PilzAdam .... aaaaaand there is the distro war
17:16 Calinou Peacock: they are still harder to use than in ubuntu
17:16 Calinou nore: err, I was wrong, I mean at install
17:16 Calinou also, to finish it: their installer is worse
17:16 Calinou PilzAdam: heh
17:16 Calinou we should stop, yeah
17:16 ruskie john_minetest, your point? it lacks a network installer
17:16 Peacock ubuntu is the easiest, but they're a pain in the ass to setup under any distro because <arrogance>
17:16 Calinou it goes nowhere :|
17:16 Calinou Peacock: ubuntu community is quite nice
17:17 PilzAdam I could just mute everypony...
17:17 Peacock you ask on any forum about problems with prop. drivers and you get a debate about nouveau and the 4 freedoms instead of help lol
17:17 Calinou not really, if you look at the ubuntu forums this rarely happens
17:17 Peacock ubuntu is the exception like i said, they got a wizard
17:17 Calinou except if there is a valid reason for it (eg. fglrx on unsupported card)
17:17 ruskie john_minetest, it needs one 2.3GB dvd iso
17:18 ruskie and that's the whole system with all packages that are available for it
17:19 Peacock ubuntu was my favorite distro before the unity/gnome3 fiasco, they were quite arrogant to their users about that one
17:19 Peacock when people act like they know better than me how i should be using my computer, it reminds me too much of why i quit windows lol
17:20 us`0gb Peacock, Trisquel, gNewSense, Debian, and Mint all have installation wizards as well.
17:20 Calinou you should partition manually, ideally
17:20 Peacock talking about prop. driver wizards :P
17:20 Peacock which i doubt trisquel has
17:20 us`0gb Oh, my bad then.
17:20 us`0gb I thought you were talking about something else.
17:21 Peacock which on *buntu, was also handy for uppidy wifi cards
17:21 Peacock (broadcom on laptops/netbooks ex)
17:22 Calinou it hides it by default, I don't agree with their choices here
17:23 Peacock *buntu too simple, arch too complicated lol
17:23 Jousway joined #minetest
17:23 Calinou heh
17:23 Peacock debian is halfway but the repos are old and devs somewhat arrogant
17:23 ruskie nothing wrong with old
17:24 Peacock my kingdom for a distro that doesn't come from an asylum lol
17:24 ruskie and it's not that old
17:24 Calinou old is less secure, and has less features, and upstream yells at you
17:24 Calinou testing is better in that regard but I heard it wasn't that stable these days
17:24 Calinou (except during a freeze)
17:24 Peacock when does upstream not yell? never had a chat with Torvalds i see :P
17:24 ruskie it's generally more stable, if it has what one needs not a prob, and I yawn at upstream
17:24 PilzAdam if old isnt bad, why do we keep coding then?
17:25 Calinou more recent software gets fixes quicker usually
17:25 ruskie I love how there are people going "I'll stop using this because nobody is doing much to it anymore" ever heard of mature codebase that doesn't need a ton of fixing anymore...
17:26 Jordach owowowowowowowow
17:26 Peacock well MT isn't old but it's got barrels of unresolved bugs right now so not sure it's the best example
17:26 Calinou git has a lot of bugfixes
17:26 Calinou ruskie: I didn't say that :)
17:27 ruskie Calinou, just general observation
17:27 PilzAdam Minetest 0.3.1 runs quite stable and doesnt need much fixing
17:27 Calinou but it lacks a ton of features
17:27 PilzAdam but as you can see in the step to 0.4, there is always room for new features
17:27 us`0gb I agree. I like 0.4.* better, but 0.3.1 seems to be in need of much less fixing.
17:27 ruskie one thing is always insisting on the latest... another thing is reasonable upgrade cycles
17:28 Peacock calinou dunno about that lol
17:28 ruskie and yeah debian has failed those reasonable upgrade cycles in the past
17:28 cisoun joined #minetest
17:28 PilzAdam if you write 1 line of code, then it can be an "established codebase that doesnt need fixing", but it lacks features
17:28 PilzAdam and features can only be done by constant development, because you can always add more features
17:29 * Jordach wonders if a one liner minetest mod can be done
17:29 us`0gb It can.
17:29 PilzAdam of course, Lua is able to do that
17:29 us`0gb I've done it for simple things in the past.
17:29 PilzAdam just s/\n/;/g
17:30 Peacock https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues?labels=bug&amp;page=1&amp;state=open <- last closed issue says a month ago, so i'd get the same bugs i have now from latest git
17:30 Calinou I like rolling release personally
17:30 ruskie I don't
17:31 ruskie but then I'm with slackware because of that
17:31 PilzAdam Peacock, we fix a lot of bugs that dont have issues on github
17:31 ruskie I like a stable system I don't need to maintain on a daily bassis
17:32 us`0gb Lack of need for constant maintenance is good.
17:32 ruskie as a sysadmin it's something you come to appreciate
17:33 us`0gb As a standard desktop use, I appreciate it as well, though likely to a lesser degree.
17:33 us`0gb *user
17:33 ruskie I want the core of the system to be rock solid
17:33 ruskie but stuff I run on top I can go with bleeding edge if it has something I might want
17:33 ruskie which frankly... hasn't been in a while
17:34 us`0gb Yeah. Aside from Minetest, I use fairly stable software.
17:34 Peacock not finding a ton of bugfixes in closed pulls except msvc compiling (20 days ago)
17:35 us`0gb I saw a bug fix yesterday. A small one, but a bug fix none the less.
17:35 us`0gb Or maybe it was two days ago. I forget.
17:35 Peacock newest closed pull says 5 days :/
17:35 Peacock and its a change in indexing for get_connected_players
17:36 us`0gb 0gb.us authored 12 days ago|kahrl committed a day ago
17:36 Peacock minetest or minetest_game? im looking only at the engine
17:36 us`0gb I'm looking at the engine as well. I don't bother with minetest_game any more.
17:37 Peacock ah i had the bug label on
17:37 Jordach Minetest is slowly stagnating; no actual useful pulls are merged, minetest_game appears the same as it was 10 years ago
17:37 Peacock still get_connected_players is the latest closed pull
17:37 Peacock maybe my cache is fucked up if youre getting different results lol
17:37 us`0gb Maybe.
17:38 Jordach Hint: Minetest is not a tech demo, stop preserving it as one

17:56 Peacock and thats what it reminds me of
17:56 Calinou try RES
17:56 Calinou a browser extension, makes it better :D
17:57 Peacock its pretty sad when you need an extension to make a site look better :P i can't do that for every poorly conceived design :P
17:58 Peacock changing subjects, this lady proves that being obese doesn't mean being lazy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hs_9s31Je7Y
17:58 ruskie john_minetest, start with slackware.com and ##slackware for that I guess
17:59 Peacock john flamewars are as old as the internet :P
17:59 Calinou except that reddit has pron

18:03 HeisenbergCZE which i cannot solve :( does anyone know? thanks
18:03 Peacock you still missing something
18:03 us`0gb That means you're using the dev version of Technic.

20:10 thexyz those rules

20:17 Peacock tell that to all the people who restrict their servers one way or another lol
20:19 us^0gb Why does the German channel have one pound sign but the Spanish channel have two?
20:19 us^0gb #minetest-de ##minetest-es
20:19 PilzAdam because germans are cool
20:19 us^0gb SO are Spaniards.

20:22 Peacock and yet, no Oktoberfest mod :(
20:22 ShadowNinja chlue: I am not sure what you mean by bargain, but ou can offer alternatives. Note: Technic stuff -> #minetest-technic.
20:22 PilzAdam Naked, even the core dev team is almost half german
20:22 ShadowNinja you*
20:22 us^0gb I think the engine has freezing now, though I'm not sure on that.
20:22 Naked too many germans. some of you should move out to another country
20:23 Naked to balance it out
20:23 Peacock Naked where else in Europe would they go?
20:23 us^0gb Oh, death freezing. Nah, I'm not into that.
20:23 Peacock better off staying in Germany :P
20:23 Naked outside of germany?
20:23 thexyz Public Note: Why do we put people who are on drugs in jail? They're sick, they're not criminals. Sick people don't get healed in prison. You see? It makes no sense.
20:23 codehero Naked> i moved out :P
20:23 Peacock most other economies seem to be tanking
20:23 Fabio hi guys! Just one question, could it be possible to convert Minetest worlds to Minecraft?
20:24 PilzAdam Naked, only insane people move away from germany if they were there once
20:24 Peacock cuz jail is cheaper than healthcare i guess
20:24 us^0gb Fabio, not at the moment.
20:24 PilzAdam Fabio, havent seen anything like that, but its possible in the other direction
20:24 thexyz so germany best country?
20:24 Fabio yes, that's what I've seen
20:24 Fabio and Minetest to Blender?
20:24 us^0gb PilzAdam, it's possible in reverse? Awesome!
20:24 Peacock in the EU, probably yeah
20:25 Fabio or other 3D soft?
20:25 PilzAdam Fabio, AFAIK only in the other direction :_/
20:25 PilzAdam *:-/
20:26 Peacock except, they could use a minimum wage
20:27 PilzAdam bye
20:27 Fabio I want to make a contest in my town where students have to design some local buldings
20:27 Fabio and I want to use all that material to recreate my town in a big 3D world
20:28 Peacock get a map and use kaezas image loader to reproduce the roads and building outlines, good start
20:28 Fabio Minetest is the best option as have the best performance for students netbooks
20:28 Peacock minetest has been pretty shitty on both my netbooks :/
20:28 Peacock weird colourful polygons on my screen
20:29 Fabio but I need a way to get all those worlds and extract models and merge them in a 3D world
20:29 Peacock ?
20:30 Peacock why not have 'em work on the same map?
20:31 Fabio because I want to make some presentations with the best models
20:31 Peacock well the map is huge, they dont need to do it all in the same area
20:31 Fabio and I want to import them to Blender or 3DMax
20:31 Peacock import minetest to blender?
20:31 Fabio yes
20:31 Peacock there's no such tool to my knowledge
20:32 Peacock i can do the opposite, and kaeza can can import images into minetest, thats about it
20:32 Fabio any way to take models outside minetest?
20:33 Peacock make models out of minetest things?
20:35 Fabio yes, let students "model" stuff in minetest and then take chunks out of that worlds, the idea is to use minetest as a creative design tool
20:36 sfan5 !title
20:36 MinetestBot sfan5: BGB - Einzelnorm
20:38 chlue Fabio: I guess directly working in Blender is out of your scope then?
20:39 Fabio yes, the idea is that students "play" with minetest while they model
20:41 Fabio I have seen various minecraft -> minetest
20:41 * sfan5 made two
20:42 Fabio but I was wondering, if we can have a tool to make invert process: minetest -> minecraft
20:42 Fabio It would be possible to use all tools associated to minecraft with minetest worlds
20:43 Fabio for example, this feature to convert minecraft worlds to gmap: http://overviewer.org/wow/#/4277/64/6091/-7/0/0
20:44 Fabio do you know of people working on this? Exporting minetest to minecraft?
20:50 Fabio john_minetest, do you know who made this? Can I have his e-mail?
20:53 TheLastProject joined #minetest

20:57 Fabio I would like to try it and talk if there's a possibility to make it the other way

21:01 Fabio hi sfan5[iPod]
21:01 sfan5[iPod] hi...
21:02 Fabio sorry if I'm lost but I would like to test the minecraft -> minetest conversion stuff
21:02 Fabio is it available to try it?
21:02 sfan5[iPod] sure
21:02 sfan5[iPod] search the forum
21:03 Miner_48er https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6007
21:03 Fabio great ;)
21:04 Fabio and is there any chance to make the opposite? Minetest -> Minecraft conversion?
21:05 VanessaE why would anyone want to?
21:05 john_minetest_ joined #minetest
21:06 Fabio I think it would open many possibilities
21:07 VanessaE I don't think anyone here's really interested in going in that direction, but it's surely possible
21:08 john_minetest joined #minetest
21:08 VanessaE the map format is documented and uses well-known databases to store it
21:08 VanessaE at least minetest is.
21:08 VanessaE MC is another matter.
21:08 Fabio minecraft have a lot of tools for their worlds, and having a minetest->minecraft tool, could indirectly gave minetest the access to all that tools to tranforming worlds
21:09 Fabio for example, MC can convert to Google Maps for navigation and being imported on Blender
21:10 Peacock Temple Island http://s8.postimg.org/bzrout1h1/screenshot_2409247916.png
21:10 Fabio if exists a minetest->minecraft conversion, minetest would have those tools too

21:15 CraigyDavi Anyone know what the proble could be here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6202466/
21:16 CraigyDavi *problem
21:17 pitriss Fabio: But how do you want to display block which is not in MC? Modding of MT makes that conversion much harder IMO.. But I may be wrong, I'm not dev at all..
21:23 Fabio pitriss not a dev too, but I think that importing resources could make it possible
21:23 hhh joined #minetest
21:24 CraigyDavi I have done that but now this happens: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6202505/
21:27 Miner_48er delete abcdefg playerfile
21:28 CraigyDavi done that and now it moves on to the next player in alphabetical order
21:28 Miner_48er linux?
21:29 CraigyDavi me? no, windows.
21:30 CraigyDavi huh?
21:30 Miner_48er ?
21:31 CraigyDavi thats odd when I remove all players if fine
21:31 CraigyDavi it's
21:32 Miner_48er likely a few corrupt files
21:32 CraigyDavi Any way I can fix this. It just happened all of a sudden.
21:49 Fabio thanks guys! see you later

23:51 JesseH For example, it taking a second or two for blocks to appear when placed.
23:52 JesseH Might just be me, though
23:52 JesseH So not that big of a deal i guess
23:52 shurtugal Can someone please help me? I cannot log on to any server, says my clients version is not supported (linux)."server version is 0.4.6, server's PROTOCOL_VERSION is 13...13, clients PROTOCOL_VERSION is 3...3
23:53 shurtugal I used the terminal to install minetest
23:53 Menche what version is your client?
23:53 shurtugal How do you tell?
23:53 Menche should be in the top-left corner
23:53 shurtugal hold on
23:54 Menche if you installed it from your distro's repository, i would guess that it is 0.3.something
23:54 shurtugal 0.3.1
23:54 shurtugal How do i upgrade?
23:54 Menche yeah, that's too old for most servers. what distro?
23:54 shurtugal Debian
23:54 shurtugal wheazy
23:54 Menche the recommended way would be to compile it
23:55 Menche there's detailed instructions in the README
23:55 shurtugal Ill try but im still new to linux (thanks
23:55 shurtugal gonna try that now, later (thanks)
