07:06 independent56 all my "players" are just visitors, looking at the map (and in one case, attempting to place cobble inprotected areas)
07:07 independent56 i hope one day, i wont just get visitors, and instead, a proper player. just like my playership with tunnler's abyss, building because "why not?".
07:09 independent56 and maybe i shouldnt creep out my players by flying, staring at those who play on my server.
07:09 independent56 just a thought

08:14 definitely_a Are you Minecraft veterans playing Mineclone2 or Mineclonia? The latter seems to have more level headed project leaders overall.

15:58 independent56 how's my imposter syndrome? dont even ask http://2.26.38.198/wordpress/2021/06/13/i-am-i-am-not/ pls help me
16:01 entuland if you really are 14 years old I guess you should just take it easy and don't stress yourself out over such dilemmas
16:01 entuland just enjoy what you do and if you feel like it, put effort at getting better at it
16:01 entuland mind you, that stands even if you're 56 years old
16:02 y5nw joined #minetest
16:04 entuland I'm 42 years old and I have never bothered even attempting multithreaded programming
16:05 entuland there is no such thing as a binary "true/false programmer" - world is nuanced
16:06 entuland world / life / whatever
16:06 y5nw reality
16:07 entuland that one, yes :)
16:07 celeron55 if you're 14 years old, look at other people who are 14 years old
16:08 celeron55 you're ways ahead if you just know what programming is
16:08 celeron55 no need to stress about it
16:08 celeron55 same thing for system administration
16:10 celeron55 continue the hobby in any amount and you'll still be ahead after 10 years
16:11 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Or don't look at other people who are 14, some people move at their own pace. I remember wanting to have my fair share of megaprojects when I was a teen, come to find out megaprojects kinda suck IMO.
16:11 sanguine joined #minetest
16:11 celeron55 what even is a megaproject
16:13 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Some big endeavor that is expected to take anywhere from years to your entire career to complete, often with the intention of becoming popular enough to support its own development.
16:13 sfan5 something bigger than a project but clearly smaller than a hyperproject
16:13 specing you'll be ahead after 10 years, but others will be ahead in social matters
16:14 celeron55 that's true, i would recommend the social things also
16:15 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Honestly I didn't really do much with programming until my later teens, that's when I started having (slightly) smaller ideas and seeing problems to fix rather than fixes without a problem.
16:16 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Started to, anyways
16:16 celeron55 not to sound super depressing, but it's annoying to try climbing out of loneliness at 25. definitely don't set yourself up for that challenge
16:16 specing and if you are too ahead of everyone, you'll become a friendless social outcast
16:17 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> I mean, some people like being a hermit, but most don't.
16:18 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Finding spaces outside of the internet can also help, such as a local Maker's Space, Hacker's Space, or User's Group
16:19 celeron55 specing: not necessarily if you don't build your entire persona around it
16:20 rubenwardy university is also great for making friends
16:20 rubenwardy the recipe just requires adding alcohol
16:20 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> and making debt /s
16:21 celeron55 it's also great for not making friends
16:21 specing celeron55: it's hard to socialise if you use things that noone else is using, and other people using things that you are not using
16:21 rubenwardy in the UK, it's more like tax. It's paid as a % of my earnings over a threshold
16:22 celeron55 specing: -> also use things other people are using
16:22 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Ruben: Interesting
16:23 rubenwardy If you earn less than £22k, you don't need to pay anything. It's a certain percentage of your earnings over 21k, just like any other tax
16:23 specing celeron55: yeah, no. My dislike of windows/facebook/msn/discord/etc has not changed since primary school
16:23 rubenwardy Yeah, Facebook is a definite requirement for a social life at university
16:24 specing seemed so, yeah. I was out of everything
16:24 rubenwardy all the events are organised through it
16:24 specing yep
16:24 rubenwardy There's a point where you need to weigh up the limited loss of privacy with your own happiness
16:25 specing Thing is, I am happier without it (other than not having a social life, but you get used to it)
16:25 celeron55 ah, always so lovely when a megacorporation basically owns people
16:25 rubenwardy you can probably make do without it if you have good connections with flatmates and such, and if you campaign the uni to list events on their own website
16:26 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> I had Facebook for a year, then decided it was best left alone.
16:26 celeron55 i have a false throwaway facebook account for reading private groups, but i never post anything and never represent myself there
16:27 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Was probably a year too long tbh-
16:27 celeron55 i had an actual account in 2007 or so, for a year or two
16:27 specing rubenwardy: the events I attended were all published in uni mailing list. There were also many that were facebook only, or required registration there
16:28 specing which I obviously did not attend
16:30 rubenwardy anyway, it's hard to make friends after university. Uni has the benefit of lots of different people, alcohol, and a general friend making attitude - everyone is away from home and doesn't know anyone
16:30 rubenwardy but after that, you tend to have work colleagues, any groups you go to, and friends of friends
16:31 specing rubenwardy: most my classmates weren't away from home. We don't have campus-style unis that are common in usa
16:31 rubenwardy Our uni was a city university not a campus university, most people were still away from home though
16:32 specing Alcohol is also no-go. It messed with your self-control. I also hold that if you need alcohol to befriend someone, you shouldn't befriend them anyway
16:33 rubenwardy you don't need it, but it helps
16:34 rubenwardy there are non-alcohol events too - board game nights, cafe crawls, etc. It's just an excuse to do something
16:39 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Funny thing about this community is that for many people (myself included) this was pretty much our wider friend group, and for some it might be their main friend group. Of course, the community was more centralized on IRC at the time and -hub/-chat was at it's most active point during 2015-2018 AFAIK.
16:44 CeeGee joined #minetest
16:44 independent56 celeron55, haha yeah. im only looking at those teenagers online who have already made a huge/contributed a lot to an advanced program. i fail to see all the students in school who prioritise "spending time with "mates"" more then programing in a cold, dark room, staring into a dark room.
16:45 independent56 and the teachers dont understand whatever i say about programming. any sentence i say will most;y go over their heads. i should use less jargon, and more simple words. but anything to make me look smarter.
16:45 rubenwardy pretty much all students in a school prioritise spending time with mates over programming in cold dark rooms
16:47 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Have you tried programming in a warm, well lit room?
16:47 rubenwardy communication is a two-way street, you need to communicate well for people to understand. Code switching is important for that, don't talk to non-technical people the same you would with programmers
16:47 rubenwardy and yeah, generally a good idea :D
16:48 rubenwardy My plants prefer when I program in a warm well lit room
16:48 entuland independent56, trying and make yourself look smarter isn't... smart
16:48 independent56 XD yeah. i shouldnt say "i am operating a self-hosted webserver using XAMPP, public IPs and port forwarding". is hould just say "i made a self-hosted website" but the first makes me look smrt, so i use it
16:48 independent56 and the teacher's confused expression is worth it
16:49 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Oh man, I'm starting to think of 2015 like it's my own 1995...I don't like this
16:49 celeron55 you need to have a with mates mode and a programmer mode just like people who work as programmers, if you're so far into programming even your teachers don't keep up
16:49 entuland even that one may be avoided unless you're queried about what you are doing or what you can do
16:49 rubenwardy anyone that knows their shit will know you're talking shit
16:49 entuland that is, just don't brag around, that'll be a great starting point
16:49 rubenwardy public IPs and port forwarding? .....you're hosting at home?
16:50 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> ^
16:50 rubenwardy I guess by self-hosted you mean literally home labbed rather than managing the hosting yourself
16:50 Krock if I pay for a VPS and set up a website, is it self-hosted?
16:50 rubenwardy I'd say yes
16:50 rubenwardy Ie: I have a self-hosted instance of Weblate on a VPS
16:51 independent56 yes, mum wont buy me a VPS, so i made a PS at hoem XD
16:51 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Self-hosted usually means not managed by another company, so while the VPS isn't self hosted your website on a VPS would be.
16:51 celeron55 it's self-hosted if you're the one to call when it breaks
16:51 rubenwardy I'd say self-hosted is in terms of software management, and home labbing is in terms of hardware management
16:51 Krock for a website you don't even need a VPS
16:51 independent56 just some webserver
16:51 rubenwardy ah yeah good point ben
16:51 rubenwardy nope, you can use a CDN like GitHub pages
16:52 rubenwardy there are webservers but you don't need to know about them
16:52 celeron55 calling github pages self-hosted seems stretching it
16:52 rubenwardy until the fastly outage happens
16:52 rubenwardy github pages isn't self-hosting
16:52 rubenwardy you're not managing software or hardware
16:52 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> That being said, self-hosting has advantages and I encourage using the opportunity to learn.
16:53 independent56 what should i call it instead?
16:53 independent56 self-self-hosting?
16:53 celeron55 when you're a kid, of course you self host out of your bedroom closet
16:53 celeron55 that's how you learn
16:53 celeron55 you don't learn otherwise
16:54 rubenwardy the term for hosting stuff at home is called home labing
16:54 independent56 ah thanks
16:54 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> I was never allowed to host out of my closet, otherwise I definitely would have had a Raspberry Pi website up years ago :P
16:54 rubenwardy when I was 15, I bricked my parents router by trying to portforward
16:54 independent56 i wish i had a closet to home-lab from. but i dont. i have to use some table, like some dork
16:55 independent56 i once changed the router's name, and disconnected EVERYONE XD
16:55 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Having a proper space makes you a dork?
16:55 rubenwardy I managed to turn off the web admin portal and also the internet conenction
16:55 y5nw I did not host from my closet because of security considerations/Internet censorship
16:55 rubenwardy I fixed it by connecting with an ethernet cable and using telnet to reenable the web admin portal
16:55 y5nw rubenwardy: oof
16:56 independent56 that must hurt. a lesson: do not touch live wires, they could bite back (dont touch a working webserve,r you may break it, like i did, or a router, like you did)
16:57 y5nw In the area I lived in the ISP apparently blocked ports unless you write to them to not block the ports (which I didn't want to do to avoid some lengthy discussion with my parents)
16:57 y5nw independent56: don't touch the apartment you live in or it will collapse :P
16:58 independent56 XD
16:58 rubenwardy I didn't touch live wires?
16:58 rubenwardy Is that an idiom?
16:58 independent56 live wires being a metaphor for anything people rely on,  and is working like a router, or XAMPP server
16:58 y5nw also it should be fine to touch jump wires ... in most cases
17:00 independent56 the only communication i had to have with my mum was about the webserver - do not unplug or touch it. let it sit and breathe my  bedroom air!
17:00 beanzilla How long does it normally take for a mod to be approved on ContentDB?
17:01 independent56 it took 2 days for me
17:01 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Depends how active staff are
17:01 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Which is very inactive
17:01 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Whats your mod?
17:01 beanzilla item_generator
17:02 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Please hold
17:02 beanzilla I'm not in a rush anyway.
17:02 beanzilla I don't even know if it's valid or not. (I use parts of the default Minetest MTG game, and parts from another mod I was helping the author on)
17:03 independent56 as long as it adds to the MT modding community, its fine. my mod was literally a handful of mods put into a big blender XD
17:04 beanzilla Oh, ok... well then I should be fine then.
17:04 independent56 imo
17:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Your license is incorrect
17:04 beanzilla Figured that.
17:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Your using a model and texture from mtg
17:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Default which is lgplv2
17:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> You could depend on default and remove that material thus being mit
17:04 y5nw independent56: if I really thought about hosting a web server from my computer back then I would have to talk to my parents on Internet censorship/safety, physical safety considerations, the fact that I was going to Germany soon (-ish at the time), and possibly letting the ISP at the time acknowledge
17:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Or change it to lgplv2
17:05 y5nw Maybe make license exceptions? I have seen a few mods do that already
17:05 beanzilla Ah, ok... well I will fix it then... what about code wise? I essentially use my own "chest" concept which is directly from Minetest?
17:06 beanzilla And when I say "fix" I mean instead of just having the model and textture I just use the default instead.
17:06 y5nw It should be fine if the "concept" does not involve copying code IMO
17:06 MTDiscord <Jonathon> ^
17:07 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Using a api is fine, copying the code that makes the api is not
17:07 MTDiscord <Jonathon> (Unless you are using a compatable license)
17:07 beanzilla Ah, ok... so then I guess this was a fail then.... Yeah... exactly... oops. (Well I added it in because I was thinking of adding MineClone2 support, but I might as well since I have decided not to to go back the the old way)
17:08 celeron55 https://i.imgflip.com/5d8nr9.jpg
17:08 sanguine joined #minetest
17:08 beanzilla So it would be fine if I used the default's api?
17:08 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Yes
17:08 beanzilla And the default's texture and models?
17:08 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Yes
17:09 beanzilla Ok... well I guess I will strip the un-necessary stuff out since I only added for MineClone2
17:09 beanzilla Which I have change my mind on to begin with. :P
17:10 MTDiscord <Jonathon> You could optionally depend on default and mc2 whatever, and then structure your mod to error if neither is found
17:11 beanzilla I was thinking of doing it that way... but I'd need to interpret the mc2 chest to see how it works internally so I can add the same concept there.
17:11 illwieckz joined #minetest
17:11 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Yeah
17:11 Extex joined #minetest
17:12 beanzilla I've removed the models, textures, and sounds directory on the repo... but I have something else to do IRL right now so I will finish it a bit later. (Obviously now the code will fail, till I update the code)
17:13 beanzilla Thank you for the valuable information on what is valid and not. (Didn't even think about that stuff)
17:15 independent56 you will find the information sold in a local tesco, given that it is so valuble
17:19 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Sure, will be busy for a while anyways

20:10 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Because its outside the range other services use
20:10 MTDiscord <Jonathon> I think

23:01 jonadab joined #minetest
23:03 specing ghoti: I think you'll lean forward when sneaking in mineclone
23:04 specing try it on clamity anarchy
23:04 ghoti Hmm, but that wouldn't be visible to other players not running mineclone, would it?
23:05 MTDiscord <Jonathon> fly and swim for 3d armor has a sneak animation in the model, not sure if it supports it
23:14 specing ghoti: it's visible. Mineclone is a server-side game
23:18 erle joined #minetest
23:19 three joined #minetest
23:23 erlehmann sfan5 just to show how broken mineclone2 is currently (master & production branches), while backporting the mcl_jukebox API to mineclonia we just figured out that the refactorig never worked correctly and broke all existing music records https://git.minetest.land/Mineclonia/Mineclonia/issues/82#issuecomment-24433
23:23 erlehmann so anyone who upgrades from mineclone2 0.71 to a hypothetical future version would have music records that are simply not accepted by the jukebox
23:24 luk3yx Could you tell the MineClone2 people about your findings so they can fix it?
23:24 erlehmann i have stopped doing that months ago when i got insults as answers for my suggestions to have mandatory code review
23:25 erlehmann also fleckenstein is aware of mineclonia and will see it eventually
23:26 erlehmann i do not believe mineclone2 is salvageable at this point, except for carefully cherry-picking commits
23:27 erlehmann and honestly, i got a conflict in the farming mod while cherry-picking mcl_jukebox changes
23:29 MTDiscord <Jonathon> development of mineclonia seems very slow, and just a filtered backport of mineclone2, not that much it does itself and its not on cdb
23:30 erlehmann > filtered backport of mineclone2
23:30 erlehmann yes that
23:30 erlehmann plus some other things
23:30 erlehmann but honestly what do you want
23:30 erlehmann mineclone2 has cool stuff, but you just need to look at kay27 server to see where "lets merge all the cool features" leads
23:30 erlehmann that server crashes every full hour like clockwork. and often in between.
23:31 MTDiscord <Jonathon> i mean, if your just going copy mineclone2, why should i use yours over theres?
23:31 MTDiscord <Jonathon> personally, looking at both, there both dumpster fires
23:31 MTDiscord <Jonathon> if your just going to filter upstream, as luk3yx said, seems better to contribute upstream
23:31 erlehmann Jonathon clamity did and got from "laggy, barely playable" to "minetest goes brrrrrrr"
23:32 erlehmann Jonathon look at the mineclone2 issue tracker. i am sure about 15 minutes with it will convince you that it is a dumpster fire.
23:32 MTDiscord <Jonathon> if i recall correct they run master, and not releases
23:32 erlehmann there are no releases since 0.71, which was already full of gamebreaking bugs the mineclone2 team post-wuzzy-involvement did not notice
23:33 erlehmann for example, minecarts going off the rails if you pressed left or right
23:33 MTDiscord <Jonathon> as i stated, both versions are dumpster fires
23:33 erlehmann or quartz and nether wart not generating at all
23:33 MTDiscord <Jonathon> and if you want to fix yours, eventually you will probably be different enough you wont be able to backport/cherrypick changes
23:34 MTDiscord <Jonathon> *with git
23:34 erlehmann well mineclonia is based on the last playable version of mineclone2
23:34 erlehmann playable as in "a few bugfixes away from good"
23:35 MTDiscord <Jonathon> anyways, did you look into my suggested idea for fixing mods that need to depend on "mesecons" redstone?
23:35 erlehmann yes but i did not understand it
23:35 erlehmann Jonathon for contributing stuff to upstream, i tried that several times. one time, for example, i contributed a patch for the crash that happened if you pressed a button at the map border.
23:35 MTDiscord <Jonathon> yeah, i noticed that
23:35 erlehmann instead of that fix, something that made buttons at the map border explode if you pressed them was committed first
23:36 erlehmann which introduces 2 more ways to crash the game lol
23:36 MTDiscord <Jonathon> more like they messed up with git and you through a fit over it
23:36 erlehmann no?
23:36 erlehmann then the developer i had reported it to, jordan, crashed clamity server repeatedly and bragged about it on youtube
23:36 erlehmann or somethign
23:36 erlehmann look i know jordan won't do that anymore
23:37 MTDiscord <Jonathon> i mean clamity is "anarchy" so anything is free game
23:37 erlehmann but don't tell me i should contribute to a hostile upstream
23:37 erlehmann i think crashing the server is generally frowned upon
23:37 erlehmann the point is it was not helpful
23:37 MTDiscord <Jonathon> whatever, anyways, ill dm you about my idea if your not busy?
23:37 erlehmann some other change from me contained a bug that made banners not craftable
23:38 erlehmann but instead of reviewing it i was ridiculed for submitting it as plaintext
23:38 erlehmann so it was merged to mineclone2 and then banners are STILL not craftable to this day
23:38 erlehmann as far as i am aware)
23:38 erlehmann (
23:38 erlehmann argl
23:39 MTDiscord <Jonathon> yeah, yeah, anyways, mind if i dm ya? or got other things to attend to
23:39 erlehmann yeah dm me
23:39 erlehmann but stop suggesting to contribute to a hostile upstream
23:39 erlehmann i do not actually think they want to be "hostile" but it does not matter
23:40 erlehmann it is frustrating to backport even the simplest things
23:41 specing lol @ exploding buttons
23:42 erlehmann specing oh i bet it was funny for jordan!
23:43 erlehmann but think about what happens if you manage to chain the explosions
23:43 erlehmann at some point you overflow the stack
23:43 luk3yx I feel like Minetest has become a drama magnet
23:43 luk3yx Many Minetest-related projects suffer from lots of controversy and drama
23:44 erlehmann nah
23:44 erlehmann not true
23:44 luk3yx Even my statement about it is full of controversy
23:44 erlehmann those who really have drama simply do not survive long
23:45 erlehmann i am just ranting right now because i am very frustrated with what should be a simple cherry-pick of 2 commits. it turned out to be a multi-hour "oh wait this code never worked" thing.
23:51 luk3yx Can't everyone just have fun
23:52 luk3yx And not argue
23:52 erlehmann no
23:52 erlehmann i live in germany, fun is verboten
23:53 rubenwardy people are complicated, that'll never happen
23:53 specing erlehmann: haha, so true
23:53 MTDiscord <Jonathon> as long as people have different viewpoints, arguments will happen
23:54 MTDiscord <Jonathon> civil arguments are fine
23:55 erlehmann well i was called a terrorist for suggesting code reviews. guess i shouldn't have done that!
23:55 erlehmann also i like arguing too, but it's tiring
23:55 erlehmann and it should go somewhere
23:55 erlehmann pointless bickering is for those two muppets that sit on the balcony, i forgot their names
