Does minetest.get_player_by_name() return a specific thing for if the player is offline and/or if the player has never been on the server? |
| 00:29 |
MTDiscord |
<GreenXenith> No, it will simply return nil if the player is not online |
| 00:29 |
beanzilla |
Ok, thank you. |

<Danil_2461> is there a way to make a formspec image not resize when you resize your window so it stays consistant no matter the screen size |

I am slightly paranoid about a house fire destroying my sentimental documents. is it worth the effort to scan my physical media and back the scans up? Photocpying is wasteful of ink, and i feel that files are much better, |
| 17:26 |
celeron55_ |
there are only two variables when deciding that |
| 17:26 |
celeron55_ |
the worth of the documents, and the likelihood of house fire |
| 17:26 |
|
Fixer joined #minetest |

well, the third variable is the effort |

I have never had a house fire. but paper ink fades... maybe in a few decades they will be lost |
| 17:33 |

The effort is taking paper, putting it inside our houshold printer, then scanning. |

<Warr1024> Modern phone cameras are good enough at taking photos that it's a lot faster to capture documents that way than a flatbed scanner, IF you're okay with some distortion. |
| 17:47 |
MTDiscord |
<Warr1024> More useful for record keeping than sentimental archival, granted. |
| 17:48 |
MTDiscord |
<Warr1024> On the other hand, you can capture images for actual use this way, then buy a decent firesafe to keep the originals. |
| 17:48 |
MTDiscord |
<Warr1024> Remember that waterproof may be more important than fireproof in an actual fire, because the damage done by hosing your partially burned house down to quell the last of the embers might actually be worse than the flames themselves. |
| 17:49 |
MTDiscord |
<Warr1024> Most modern inks don't fade at an appreciable rate that it's worth worrying about it, unless you're talking like those thermal transfer printouts, or if you're keeping them in the sun. |
| 17:51 |
independent__ |
ah yeah |
| 17:53 |
MTDiscord |
<Warr1024> you can stack some books on documents for a day or so to flatten them out and undo creases, if necessary, so long as they don't have sticky stuff on them and aren't all different sizes and shapes. Then see if you can setup a tripod with a camera, possibly a phone camera, and photograph them that way, one at a time. Then store them away in your safe, and you can use the photos you've taken as the "living" copies when you want to access |
| 17:53 |

<Warr1024> Scanning nets you better quality at higher time cost. That decision is just a matter of cost/benefit. |
