The 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error. |

kernel upgrade... there goes my 47 day uptime |
01:40 |
* ShadowNinja |
learned not to run pacman -Syu often. |
01:41 |
Peacock |
besides, if i can "evade" a quiet on IRC with such little effort, it's only because IRC is so Mesozoic by 1st world standards :P |
01:42 |
Peacock |
on arch? yeah i avoided that too :P |
01:42 |
* Menche |
does that like every other day :P |
01:42 |
Peacock |
on debian systems you can update every day |
01:43 |
Menche |
on debian systems there aren't updates every other day |
01:43 |
Peacock |
on arch, its like the lottery, either you win big, or you lose :P |
01:43 |
Menche |
hmmm? |
01:43 |
Peacock |
dunno, ran archbang for two years, and 3/4 of the time i tried to updated the system, i regretted not simply installing a new image from scratch :P |
01:43 |

what and IPs can't be changed? griefers tell me otherwise lol and minetest's ban system is still shit |
01:44 |

usually goes smoothly for me. when an update requires extra work, a notice is sent in plenty of time. |
01:44 |

Peacock: Stock Arch must be better then. |
01:44 |

even xchat supports proxies lol |

and that hasn't been needed in a long time |
01:45 |

01:45 |

you can change them in 30 seconds or in 30 months |
01:45 |

yeah, you can by my whole network, but not just me :P |

i like stock Arch. a preconfigured Arch spinoff seems to defeat the purpose to me. |

and in Canada, we have 3 providers, so you'd be banning 1/3rd of the country lol |
01:45 |

they have proxy detectors |

High bandwidth != good. |
01:48 |
Peacock |
though most people use web-based groups and forums these days |
01:50 |
Peacock |
minetest is honestly the only place that asks me to use IRC, otherwise like i said, i was still in highschool when i last used it :P |
01:50 |
Exio4 |
most people uses web-bases groups for "time-less messages" and irc for "fast communication" |
01:51 |
Exio4 |
and yeah, the IRC could be ancient |
01:51 |
Peacock |
i don't see anything wrong with that, at least people have the time to think about their reponses, and have a thorough history of messages |
01:51 |
Peacock |
*responses |
01:51 |
Exio4 |
but if it is still used, it is because it is somewhat good, no? |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation#History |
01:56 |
Exio4 |
An influential technique for deriving compiled code from interpretation was pioneered by Mitchell in 1970, which he implemented for the experimental language LC² |
01:56 |
Exio4 |
the fist draft is from 1960 |
01:56 |
Exio4 |
"Just in Time compilation" is actually, 50~ years old |
01:56 |
Exio4 |
s/fist/first/ |
01:57 |
Peacock |
well when you say JIT, i think luaJIT :P |
01:57 |
Menche |
java and one implementation of python use JIT too |
01:57 |
Peacock |
as for linux gaming, i can't wait for SteamOS, even though the stallmanites will have a big circlejerk about how evil it is lol |
01:58 |
Exio4 |
Menche: pypy = "pythonJIT" |
01:58 |
Menche |
yeah |
01:58 |
Exio4 |
Peacock: it is evil, but i had to buy cs 1.6 :P |
01:58 |
Peacock |
well... it's no secret i think opensource is much better off without the stallman faction :P |
01:58 |
Exio4 |
counter strike and gta vice city, the only "known" games i love :P |
01:59 |
Exio4 |
Peacock: opensource without stallman paranoia = dead opensource |
01:59 |
Exio4 |
at least as a whole, maybe random programs "opensourced" |
01:59 |
Peacock |
before torvalds and opensource there was just stallman and freesoftware, and all that got you was HURD, which still took 2-3 decades to finish :P |
01:59 |
Exio4 |
but a whole... running... system? |
02:00 |
Exio4 |
it isn't finished yet Peacock |
02:00 |
Peacock |
still took too long |
02:00 |
Peacock |
if RMS had written less speaches and more code, who knows? |
02:00 |
Exio4 |
it is how he lives now |
02:01 |
Peacock |
squatting at an MIT office? i dont aspire to that lol |
02:01 |
Exio4 |
uh? |
02:02 |
Exio4 |
srly, RMS now does the "moral part" of the free software |
02:02 |
Peacock |
morals don't get shit done, practicality does |
02:03 |
Peacock |
Torvalds isn't an RMS enthusiast, he didn't write the linux kernel for him :P |
02:03 |
Peacock |
and he doesn't give a shit about GPL v3 either |
02:03 |
Exio4 |
meh |
02:03 |
Exio4 |
think whatever you want |
02:03 |
Peacock |
well i go by what i read |
02:04 |
Exio4 |
i think without RMS, we wouldn't have a "that big" linux kernel right now |
02:04 |
Peacock |
so if you have an issue with that, write to slashdot and all the other tech magazines lol |
02:04 |
Peacock |
RMS had nothing to do with the linux kernel, he might wanna tack-on GNU to linux, but that doesn't make it so |
02:05 |
Peacock |
HURD is RMS's baby, the kernel is torvalds' |
02:05 |
Exio4 |
hurd is a kernel |
02:05 |
Peacock |
yeah but not *the* linux kernel |
02:06 |
Peacock |
i know, i read all about it, arch recently made a distro based on HURD if im not mistaken |
02:06 |
Menche |
yeah, idk if it's official |
02:06 |
Exio4 |
arch doesn't even support arm officialy\ |
02:06 |
Peacock |
ARM isn't the same thing though |
02:06 |
Menche |
there is an arch hurd |
02:06 |
Exio4 |
just saying, arch is like talking about windows |
02:06 |
Peacock |
ARM is a processor, HURD is another Kernel/OS |
02:06 |
Exio4 |
99% shit |
02:07 |
Peacock |
so because HURD is out, everything else is suddenly shit? |
02:07 |
Exio4 |
inb4 some arch fanboy kills me |
02:07 |
* Menche |
kills Exio4 |
02:07 |
Peacock |
arch fanboys won't kill you :P as far as i know, many OS's are based off the linux kernel :P |
02:08 |
Exio4 |
Peacock: i'm not a gnu fanboy, but i actually think without RMS and his "annoying-ness" a lot of actual "opensource programs" would be closed |
02:08 |
Exio4 |
and the glibc you are using, the library that lets your programs talk with the kernel easily, is from GNU |
02:08 |
Exio4 |
or are you using uclibc? |
02:08 |
ShadowNinja |
Exio4: /kill? :-) |
02:09 |
Peacock |
im not a GNU fanboy either :P i believe in open source, not freesoftware, and the freesoftware fanboys have made a pretty big point of the differences |
02:09 |
Exio4 |
IMO opensource alone would die pretty fast |
02:09 |
Exio4 |
what is the point of an opensource kernel if there isn't other "opensource" userspace to work with it? |
02:09 |
Peacock |
im not saying GNU produces nothing but shit :P but I am saying, they didn't produce all of it either, lots of stuff was made by moderates like Linus Torvalds :P |
02:10 |
Peacock |
and i agree with Linus when he says GPLv3 is going too far |
02:11 |
Exio4 |
why do you think netscape released their browser's code? |
02:13 |
Peacock |
because nobody wanted it? |
02:16 |
Exio4 |
i think i need to reword my question |
02:16 |
Exio4 |
do you think opensource would have "sustained over time" without free software? |
02:16 |
Peacock |
firefox was great in the beginning, but something happened along the way that made it as blky and cumbersome as the alternative i gave up for it |
02:17 |
Peacock |
i think Linus Torvalds developed the linux kernel without the help of free software, and that only emboldened RMS |
02:17 |
Peacock |
and when Ubuntu got popular, things really got out of hand for the FSF |
02:18 |
Exio4 |
i think without RMS linus would have released the kernel into some closed-like licence |
02:18 |
Exio4 |
and same with a hell lot of shit |
02:18 |
Exio4 |
or why do you think people created gnome? |
02:18 |
Exio4 |
because QT wasn't "free software" |
02:18 |
Peacock |
well it's not like RMS and his crowd were advancing the crowd, they wrote more speeches than code |
02:19 |
Peacock |
as is often the cause, i notice them producing very little code, but they tell others what to do with theirs |
02:20 |
Peacock |
i've always thought, put your money where your mouth is, in other words, set the example yourself |
02:20 |
Exio4 |
they did |
02:20 |
Peacock |
well HURD is a sad example of that |
02:20 |
Exio4 |
how is hurd related? |
02:20 |
Exio4 |
hurd is only a kernel |
02:20 |
Exio4 |
one of those programs |
02:20 |
Peacock |
it didn't take that long for Linus to produce his kernel |
02:21 |
Exio4 |
linus made an experimental kernel that got refined after years and years of dev |
02:21 |
Exio4 |
and after that become actually usable |
02:21 |
Peacock |
if anything the FSF is only piggybacking off the hardwork of other more moderate devs |
02:21 |
Exio4 |
Peacock: i repeat |
02:22 |
Peacock |
well as much as the FSF would like to rewrite history, the linux kernel came into being in spite of them, not because :P |
02:22 |
Exio4 |
wut? |
02:22 |
Exio4 |
i didn't understand that |
02:22 |
Exio4 |
being in spite of them? what? |
02:23 |
Peacock |
well im not gonna tell you what to google, you probably wouldn't believe me if i did, just do your homework :P |
02:23 |
Exio4 |
anyway, you say it like the FSF only did shit to the others devs |
02:23 |
Exio4 |
i ask you, do you know what libraries are your program using? |
02:23 |
Exio4 |
and what programs are your shell scripts using? |
02:23 |
Peacock |
naw, all i say is, the FSF are much better at writing speeches than code, especially as of late |
02:24 |
Exio4 |
GTK |
02:24 |
Exio4 |
it was created for.. GIMP |
02:24 |
|
ibloat joined #minetest |
02:24 |
Peacock |
okay, so because Linux uses some GNU stuff, it should be called GNU/Linux |
02:24 |
Menche |
hence the acronym |
02:24 |
Menche |
several layers of acronyms |
02:25 |
Peacock |
like if winamp was the default player on windows, it should be called Winamp/Windows lol |
02:26 |
Exio4 |
if winamp was the 'standard' C library of windows and what had the main programs like explorer.exe or cmd.exe and shits, i would say that is correct |
02:26 |
Exio4 |
yes, they didn't make Xorg |
02:26 |
Exio4 |
but why do you say it like they just fucked everything? |
02:26 |
Exio4 |
they actually created the first-layers and did the first step in the creation of all the opensource shit that is around |
02:27 |
Exio4 |
i'm sure if the "FSF" didn't bitch around at that time, now all software would be closed source with a few 15SLOC exceptions |
02:27 |
Exio4 |
they saw everything was going closed source, == they say "we keep it free, bitch!" |
02:27 |
Peacock |
i never said they fucked *everything*, but yes, they've only gotten more hardcore over the years, which IMHO, doesn't help anything |
02:28 |
Exio4 |
they are a lot part of the history |
02:28 |
Exio4 |
i just think the FSF has its part in it |
02:28 |
Peacock |
the more popular linux got, the more extreme the FSF got, which didn't help adoption *at all* |
02:28 |
Exio4 |
they were always extreme |
02:29 |
Peacock |
naw, they were more moderate before ubuntu |
02:29 |
Peacock |
read the comments here: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/13/10/23/184236/torvalds-steamos-will-really-help-linux-on-the-desktop?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=twitter |
02:36 |
Exio4 |
lol |
02:36 |
Exio4 |
in those comments you see both opinions |
02:36 |
Peacock |
agreed, i wouldn't bother to read anything with just one side to it |
02:37 |
Exio4 |
anyway, funny |
02:37 |
Peacock |
but i still have to agree with the side that says overall it's better for the linux community to have major hardware manufacturers on-board |
02:38 |
Exio4 |
Corporations don't care about Linux and free software. We already have Google tightening its grip on the "open" Android. SteamOS will probably be more of the same: a corporation using the argument of "Open-Source" to lock users into their closed-source solution. |
02:38 |
Peacock |
the FSF's argument is that it's bad to have non-free games |
02:38 |
Peacock |
corporate money made linux and much of it's best software possible |
02:38 |
NakedFury |
its bad to have non free games? |
02:38 |
Exio4 |
are you talking redhat and intel? |
02:39 |
Peacock |
no, im talking IBM and Oracle |
02:39 |
Exio4 |
really? |
02:39 |
Peacock |
reall |
02:39 |
Peacock |
*really |
02:39 |
Exio4 |
oracle? 8) |
02:39 |
Peacock |
despite their recent actions |
02:40 |
Peacock |
do you think StarOffice/OpenOffice/LibreOfffice would exist? |
02:40 |
Peacock |
IBM poured a shit-ton of money into linux, and they also provided the nazis with the means to catalogue jews, does that make them evil? |
02:40 |
Exio4 |
not by those names but there will be some "opensource ofimatic suite" |
02:41 |
Peacock |
yeah but i doubt someone would have written one from scratch |
02:41 |
Exio4 |
because there was a "moral need" of some open suite |
02:41 |
Exio4 |
Peacock: they would, people is crazy, remember? |
02:41 |
Peacock |
people are crazy, yes i agree with you there 110% lol |
02:41 |
Exio4 |
why would you even bother to write some code if you can get an already working app for it? |
02:42 |
Exio4 |
seriously, why would you even do that? |
02:42 |
Peacock |
well it depends on the cost |
02:42 |
ShadowNinja |
Peacock: Sun microsystems developed OO.O. |
02:42 |
Exio4 |
was it sun? |
02:42 |
Exio4 |
i don't recall tbh |
02:42 |
Exio4 |
i'm not into OO history :P |
02:43 |
Exio4 |
i only know everytime i read about oracle, it is about fucking up opensource.. |
02:43 |
Peacock |
if the OS version of office takes one weekend to get working, and the proprietary version a few hours, then it simply depends on how much money you can get for those few hours |
02:43 |
ShadowNinja |
Yes, then oracle bought them and gave the trademark/copyright/whatever to apacbe. |
02:43 |
ShadowNinja |
apache* |
02:43 |
Peacock |
though, thats a very vague example, it takes more time to get linux working then it ever would to get office working |
02:44 |

im not saying oracle is an angle :P but like any corporate entity, they did pour money into opensource, and i'm not one to bite the hand that feeds me :P |
02:44 |
Exio4 |
they did? |
02:44 |
Exio4 |
like, redhat?, intel? |
02:45 |
Peacock |
redhat lives off support, which depends on a system complicated enough to run |

so what? |
02:57 |
Exio4 |
if you left a country like peru without a "controlled economy", it would get into a default in less than 15 years |
02:57 |
Peacock |
well, if you think it's a failure, i wish more people thought as you :P |
02:58 |

it is the main problem from "developing countries" |
02:58 |

argentina had a default in 2001 i believe, |
02:58 |

yeah, that nice default |
02:58 |

the dot-com bubble relieved the economy from the early 90's recession, but it all was based on bullshit, like the mortgage crisis that came later, thank reageanomics for that :P |
03:04 |

oh don't get me wrong, I know it was based on bullshit :) |

reaganomics and thatcherism did alot more damage to the economy than people give it credit for :P |

"trickle down"? sure, if you're already rich, maybe. otherwise the only trickle you ever see happens to be rather thin and pale yellow in color. |
03:10 |

trickle down is bullshit, rich people are rich by being dirt chip, the economy never advanced by people hoarding money |
03:10 |
VanessaE |
yup |
03:10 |
Peacock |
*chip = cheap |
03:11 |
Peacock |
the reason corporations rose to prominence in the 70's and 80's was because of tax credits owing to investments |
03:12 |
Peacock |
also why the 3rd world has so much debt :P |
03:13 |

we lent so much more then they could afford to pay back |

Up in the sky, it creates a semi-repeating pattern of nodes. |

When the "flat" flag is not used, they go away. |

Oops, it looks like it's indev, not v6. I'll test with v6 now though. |

Actually, the none that were enabled do anything at mapgen time, besides defining the mapgen aliases. |

All the defaults, with the map generator being indev and the only flag being "flat". |

It repeated, but with slight variance. |

I ran once into similar pattern with a bug in my voxel manip code... |

Maybe it repeated perfectly until the next phase of the map generater altered it. |

ah, PilzAdam, i need another ok for #928 |
14:30 |
PilzAdam |
BlockMen, didnt we already talked about that? |
14:31 |
PilzAdam |
IIRC I said it would be better to set the listcolors per list, and be able to use images instead of plane colors |
14:35 |
BlockMen |
IMO this could be an further improvement somewhen |
14:35 |
BlockMen |
feel free to add this ;) |
14:36 |
PilzAdam |
I would be fine with this, though we need to make sure that it can be done in the future without conflicts |
14:37 |
BlockMen |
can you see anything that would/could cause this in my pull? |
14:38 |
PilzAdam |
I mostly care about the API |
14:38 |

no, it doesnt mean no |

it means: "think about things first" |
14:44 |
BlockMen |
there are 3 possible answers on my question: yes (insert reasons), no, idk(insert reasons) |
14:44 |
us`0gb |
It means one bad API function could haunt us all forever. |
14:45 |
PilzAdam |
BlockMen, I want _you_ to answer that question |
14:45 |
PilzAdam |
that means: 1) think about how the API for my suggestions would be and 2) think if it will conflict with your changes |
14:45 |
PilzAdam |
since you just worked in that part of the code and know it better than me |
14:49 |
BlockMen |
1)IMO your suggestions would be better in a new definition since [listcolors] are already kinda large, but thats not necessary. 2)it would be possible to add your suggestions without conflicts to my changes |
14:50 |
PilzAdam |
what would be a "new definition" |
14:50 |
PilzAdam |
+? |
14:51 |
BlockMen |
[listimg], [listdef], what ever makes sense and is not used already |
14:51 |
BlockMen |

15:07 |

PilzAdam, it allows to add another parameter now that is only used if present |
15:08 |
BlockMen |
in this case "true/false" to clip background image of formspec |
15:08 |
PilzAdam |
wouldnt it be better to change it to if(parts == 3 || parts == 4) ? |
15:09 |
PilzAdam |
so the "Invalid background element(" error is also thrown when there are 5 or more parts |
15:10 |
PilzAdam |
also: is it intentional that the variables in guiFormSpecMenu.h are not initialized? |
15:10 |

i dont see the reason for that, all "useless" parameters are not processed (IIRC it is somewhere else done that way in formspecs) |

very odd |
16:34 |

ok, back... and we should make 2-3 servers that are Minetest's and really large maps yea? |
16:35 |
us`0gb |
I don't understand. Like one map shared between servers? |
16:37 |
dafull97 |
no, like 3-4 servers that are minetest's and not ran by the community... and all them have there own maps... and like one in the midd. of the us, eastcoast and westcoast... |
16:37 |
dafull97 |
minimumize lag... :) |
16:37 |

that costs $$ |

does minetest take donations? |

Can Minetest afford more servers? If so, is that what the money should be spent on? Perhaps not, to both questions. |

well, I don't know how this works... |

Since the wiki runs on the MediaWiki software, you have to look on www.mediawiki.org |
17:12 |
Wuzzy |
I learned most stuff there, too. |
17:12 |
Wuzzy |
Tables are a bit more complex. |
17:13 |

I recommond starting with simple texts and simple formatting so you can get a feeling how MediaWiki works. |
17:13 |

after that, you can still try to learn tables |

17:21 |

idk... something text-based |
17:21 |
us`0gb |
Ah. No wonder then. |
17:21 |
reactor |
IRC is not particulary in need of GUI. |
17:22 |

Text-based options lack that point-and-click ease. |

I/O err. 35887: imcompatible tastes. |
17:22 |

Yeah. At least both options are available. |

It's tempting to say point and click is unnecessary in IRC. So I've just said it. |

Quick question: When I try to join a server I never joined before and it requires a password. What does happen if I enter into the server the first time? |
17:38 |
reactor |
Wuzzy: the password is created. |
17:39 |
fairiestoy |
Your player file will be created with several informations |
17:39 |
us`0gb |
If it requires a password and you don't have it, you can't get in. |
17:39 |
reactor |
Wuzzy: so that nobody else can log in with your name. |
17:39 |
Wuzzy |
okay |
17:39 |
Wuzzy |
this means the first password is created, too |
17:39 |
reactor |
I wonder... one could abuse the password system. |
17:40 |
Wuzzy |
oh boy this seems cumbersome |
17:40 |
reactor |
Write a shell script that launches minetest with different usernames. |
17:40 |
us`0gb |
THere might be a hole in that, if you send control characters. I don't know. |
17:40 |

It would be insecure to have the same password for all servers |
17:40 |
Jordach |
nope.avi |
17:40 |
reactor |
(it would take long to clutter up the server's disk full) |
17:40 |
Wuzzy |
why “nope� |
17:40 |
reactor |
(but it's _theoretically_ possible!) |
17:40 |
Jordach |
Wuzzy, nobody's worked mine out |
17:41 |

Or is there flood prevention for logins? |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
Well. |
17:41 |
reactor |
Or for registered users? |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
I theoretically could open a server |
17:41 |

... I wonder if THAT's what the DDoSer did to me ... |
17:41 |
Jordach |
my redcrab 0.4-dev20120106 password has been the same for almost 2 YEARS |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
which requires a password |
17:41 |
reactor |
I think it would be useful to have "new users per day" limit. |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
BAM! Soon I get a lot of default passwords |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
:-) |
17:41 |
Wuzzy |
No cracking skills required AT ALL |
17:42 |
Wuzzy |
This is why I say its insecure |
17:42 |
us`0gb |
I think it would be a good idea to store the last time an account was used. That way, you could clear out all unused accounts. |
17:42 |
reactor |
Yes, that, too. |
17:42 |
Wuzzy |
And by this method I could obtain YOUR password, too. (assuming you use the same PW everywhere) |
17:42 |
reactor |
But that still doesn't cancel the possibility of "new user" flood, us`0gb. |
17:42 |
fairiestoy |
us, write a mod for it :P |

I actually plan to write that in a Lua plugin, but C++ would be better, to put it in the player's file. |

One hundred attack accounts are created. Then the attacker must stop. But then a REAL user tries to join. |

This is a free sandbox game. What the hell should one do with another account? |

then we could disable the password system altogether because it is basicly pointless |

Plus then you have to expose your email address. I personally expose mine all the time, but other people might not want to. |

oh and the sandbox argument does not hold I think |

No, john_minetest, normal people virtualise. |

No, almost whole system. |

In general, it's advised to use virtualisation for whatever external services you provide. |
17:56 |

Especially if that machine also serves as a desktop. |
17:56 |

Proper does not imply "normal". You said "normal". |

Normal people do things in an incredibly insecure way. |

"average" is not "normal" |

Awesome. I hope it gets pulled, portability is great. |
22:10 |
Warr1024 |
heh, I was sort of hoping to bump into a dev in here, to bring it to their attention |
22:10 |
Warr1024 |
ah well |
22:12 |
Warr1024 |
I'm hoping at least 0.4.8 doesn't end up getting released breaking portability with platforms that worked before. |
22:12 |
Warr1024 |
though I'm only currently in a position to test OpenBSD and Debian, and I'm sure a lot of people would notice breakage on Debian at least as quickly as I do. |
22:13 |

*g* difficult to maintain more and more platforms while time passes warr ;-) |
22:15 |
Warr1024 |
yeah, I know |
22:15 |
Warr1024 |
but there are some baseline standard things you can do that tend to work well enough on most platforms. |

I'm trying for a week now to get windows builds working .... |
22:16 |
Warr1024 |
of course, I could just provide my portability patches to OpenBSD's ports collection just to fix OpenBSD, but as long as they don't break the other platforms, I think they'd be better for upstream. |
22:16 |
Warr1024 |
Windows is broken? |
22:16 |
sapier |
partly |
22:16 |
Warr1024 |
wow, that's kinda surprising. |
22:16 |

I can't get localization work on vs2012 build |
22:16 |
sapier |
mingw32 with current gettext is fine |
22:17 |
sapier |
vs2010 seems to be fine too (last official minetest version) |
22:17 |
Warr1024 |
why using VS? |
22:17 |
sapier |
but gettext guys don't support vs any longer due to gpl licensing issues |
22:18 |
Warr1024 |
most of the open-source ported-from-*n*x stuff I've seen out there tends to be built with cygwin or mingw. |
22:18 |
Warr1024 |
Of course, the mingw stuff just works, while the cygwin stuff requires you to install tons of crap... |
22:18 |
sapier |
mingw doesn't just work too ;-) |
22:18 |
Warr1024 |
hm, yeah, I've had some minor dealings with it in the past |
22:19 |
sapier |
still not having current vs support is an issue |
22:19 |
Warr1024 |
I'm kind of hoping that OpenBSD support in minetest continues unofficially, at least on a "as long as there's somebody to test and submit patches" basis. |
22:20 |
Warr1024 |
I can't imagine trying to get something from the not-originally-written-in-VS world into VS. |
22:20 |
sapier |
it'd be silly not to include those patches |
22:20 |
Warr1024 |
which patches? |
22:20 |
sapier |
most oss libs work fine e.g. libogg vorbis zlib ... |
22:20 |
sapier |
openbsd support patches |
22:21 |
Warr1024 |
hypothetical ones, or specifically the pull req I submitted? |

Warr1024 |
If you've got time to review my pull req, it's #965. |
22:25 |
Warr1024 |
as always, it's a rather conservative fix. |
22:25 |
Warr1024 |
Not really urgent of course, but I just hope it doesn't get forgotten through the 0.4.8 release. |

Wish I knew more about your Windows builds problem, but I suspect that all I can offer you are my condolences :-/ |
22:31 |

Warr1024: You should mention it in #minetest-dev. |

Too late. :-( |

0.4.8 was released |
23:30 |
kaeza |
actually no :P |
23:31 |
VanessaE |
thank G*d no |
23:31 |

0.4.8 is nowhere near ready imho |
23:31 |

(but it'll go out the door anyway probably) |

still, 0.4.7 is waaay too old as of now |
23:32 |
kaeza |
maybe 0.4.7.1 :P |
23:34 |
Evergreen |
Too much has happened between 0.4.7 stable and 0.4.7 dev |
23:35 |
Evergreen |
All the people who don't know what github is are still waiting for 0.4.8. I agree with VanessaE though, it shouldn't be rushed |
23:36 |
VanessaE |
mainly, there are crash bugs that need solved before it goes out |
