12:13 specing     reminder that this exists
16:17 jonadab     specing: The biggest downside, which nobody on there has mentioned, is that if you have this feature, nobody knows what their password is, because they chose it months ago and have never thought about it again.  So when they get a new computer, they are locked out of their user account unless they can convince the server admin to intervene and reset their password.
16:18 specing     people should have backups and this is one of those valuable lessons in having backups
16:18 heavygale   and use a password safe ^^
16:18 jonadab     People *should* do a lot of things, including keep track of their passwords.
16:18 jonadab     But they don't.
16:18 specing     No, people shouldn't have to keep track of all the passwords
16:18 specing     people aren't hard drives
16:19 jonadab     This is why webmail providers and social networking websites and such have *elaborate* password-recovery mechanisms.
16:19 jonadab     Which you probably don't want to implement in Minetest client.
16:28 lmat        Dude, my animals totally get out of their pin!! I have a pin three tiles tall, but they hop on each other's backs and hop out!!
16:29 specing     hahaha
16:32 jonadab     Some of the animal mods have a deeply broken AI that causes the animals to bounce up and down, sometimes 10 or more blocks in the air.
16:32 jonadab     Sometimes they can fall to their death on a level plain.
16:34 specing     jonadab: you can ride a petz horse and your model gets 100 times bigger
16:35 lmat        jonadab: Wow. Mine just try to go through the wall and jump all the time.
16:36 lmat        jonadab: Naturally, eventually they jump on each other and eventually one of them jumps while on another while next to the wall while trying to walk into the wall :-/
16:42 lmat        I think they generally jump right by the wall, so I added a lip to the top of my wall.
16:42 lmat        I thought about making the wall higher, but then they'll just jump three high... :-/
17:26 lmat        How do I use bonemeal to grow grass?
17:26 lmat        (I installed the bonemeal 1.1 mod)
17:27 lmat        "Bonemeal is crushed from bones found in dirt ... each of which can be used to quickly grow ... grass/decoration"
17:27 lmat        That's how I read the first paragraph at https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=16446
17:34 specing     punch dirt
18:14 MinetestBot 02[git] 04Df458 -> 03minetest/minetest: Implement override.txt support for special tiles (#10140) 1393ecc58 https://git.io/JJK4S (152020-08-04T18:12:47Z)
18:14 lmat        specing: Oh, I was right-clicking! duh :-D
18:39 lmat        specing: That made grass and flowers, but I'm looking for grass on dirt...
18:39 lmat        OH! there it is!
18:49 lmat        guys... if my eyes don't deceive me, all I need to do to grow grass on dirt is put grass (like break a grass thing) on the dirt, then the dirt turns green, no?
18:55 lmat        and you guys telling me to get stupid bonemeal!
18:57 duckie      boop boopp
20:47 fruitsnack  Hm, it seems that align= parameters for formspec table columns are not working
20:48 fruitsnack  my columns are always aligned to left
21:58 fruitsnack  Does formspec column "image" type support image transformations?
21:58 fruitsnack  [combine, [resize, etc
21:59 sfan5       I think it might be faster if you tested
22:18 fruitsnack  well I already came to conclusion that it doesnt
22:18 fruitsnack  since the modifiers start with same symbols used for formspecs
22:18 fruitsnack  [, ], etc
22:18 sfan5       you can escape them
22:30 fruitsnack  hm it does work indeed
23:14 lmat        How do I pick up my furnace?
23:22 sfan5       make sure it's empty, then dig it
23:28 lmat        sfan5: I need a pickaxe to dig it, but it just reappears. It's in my protected space...
23:28 specing     is it empty?
23:29 lmat        I'm pretty sure I made sure of that, but I'll have to double check next time I'm around it.
23:34 a1fa        hey, how do you enable fullscreen in 5.3?
23:35 a1fa        enabling fullscreen just removes titlebar, and locks the window to the top left corner
23:42 a1fa        are there any mods ala pubg?
23:48 sfan5       window-manager fullscreen works much better
23:48 sfan5       try e.g. alt+f11
