02:35 Duvalon Forums are not responding again
02:36 Duvalon (timeout)
02:57 ensayia I've noticed that they are quite slow, perhaps the slowest I've ever used. I know it was discussed recently.
02:58 Duvalon Yeah, I know it was discussed recently. It appears intermittent. I was able to access some pages finally. However it is very slow.

02:59 MinetestUser its debatable which is slower, the forums, or actually getting c55 to do anything
02:59 Duvalon :D

06:37 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> legit what is even up with the forums being slow
06:37 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> like, is it because of phpbb being heavy or because its bandwidth is saturated

13:18 kilbith I'd ban anyone refusing to show support for Ukraine
13:18 kilbith fucking bastard
13:22 Flabb joined #minetest
13:22 kilbith russians supporting Putin are not welcome here
13:31 srifqi joined #minetest
13:34 schwarzwald[m] Wait, if I refuse to show support for Ukraine I can't take part in this community?
13:35 leo_rockway joined #minetest
13:36 schwarzwald[m] I'm not even Ukrainian.
13:38 kilbith it means that you are a bastard yes
13:38 kilbith if you have some humanity inside you, you support Ukraine
13:39 vampirefrog we should round up all non ukrainians in concentration camps and gas them to death, then incinerate their bodies, slava ukraini
13:41 definitelya excuse me...?
13:41 definitelya xD
13:41 vampirefrog was kicked by rubenwardy: not welcome here
13:41 definitelya LOL

13:43 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> minetest IRC is looking pretty discordy today

13:56 srifqi1 joined #minetest
14:01 MTDiscord <luatic> That's because kilbith is on
14:04 MTDiscord <luatic> But yeah, L-Dog's presence on the forums is questionable. Not because of their political views though.
14:08 kilbith I'm shocked when someone says they refuse to support Ukraine, when you know what's going on there
14:09 Arya[verncc][m] maybe move to the offtopic chat :P
14:09 Arya[verncc][m] is it even bridged to irc?
14:09 kilbith but I can understand that in the mind of a hypocritical German, they have actual _interests_ to stay neutral
14:09 kilbith and I should probably stop there, that's enough OT
14:13 MTDiscord <luatic> ehh kilbith, I'm not neutral (I support Ukraine if that's what you wanted to hear), I'm not part of the political leadership, and not even our political leaders are trying to stay neutral - Germany has provided supplies to Ukraine
14:13 kilbith just like, if you don't feel like it matters to support a country afflicted by war crimes, avoid interacting with me at all.
14:14 MTDiscord <luatic> This just has no relevance in #minetest or the Minetest Forums for that matter
14:14 kilbith sure, I agree
14:14 MTDiscord <luatic> good
14:14 MTDiscord <luatic> I can understand that you feel strongly about this. It truly is disheartening.
14:15 MTDiscord <luatic> L-Dog should probably have been banned for all the shit he's been flinging around already. It's not the forum moderation's job to censor viewpoints however, no matter how disturbing they may be, as long as they aren't illegal.
14:16 kilbith defending Hitler is illegal in Germany, yes?
14:16 MTDiscord <luatic> depends, to some extent yes
14:16 MTDiscord <luatic> e.g. swastikas are forbidden symbols
14:16 kilbith so rule should apply here too
14:16 MTDiscord <luatic> yes, probably
14:17 MTDiscord <luatic> is L-Dog posting swastikas or something?
14:30 Flabb joined #minetest
14:34 muurkha kilbith: I don't think that's true; I think what's illegal are things like advocating Nazism or denying the Holocaust
14:35 rubenwardy putin is a fascist dictator
14:35 kilbith yes it's illegal in France as well
14:35 kilbith fortunately
14:37 muurkha but if someone says "Hitler murdered Eva Braun when she was 25" it's perfectly legal in Germany to point out that actually she lived to 33 and as far as anyone knows might have taken the cyanide voluntarily
14:37 muurkha as far as I know
14:37 muurkha even though that's defending Hitler

15:39 MTDiscord <GoodClover> It's ok to defend something where there's genuine uncertainty, else our bias on events'd only get worse. There's also a big difference between advocating for something & stating fact or doubt.
15:40 MTDiscord <GoodClover> Like if I suddenly claimed climate change'd kill us all in two years, you're allowed to correct that without being anti-climate-change.
15:40 MTDiscord <GoodClover> heh, I'd hope everyone's anti-climate-change. I meant someone who believes it's fake

18:25 ensayia I want to remove one node and replace it with another, but keep the previous node's param2 data. Is there some way to do that? I suspect preserve_metadata is useful but the API guide doesn't give and example of how it works,.
18:28 MTDiscord <GoodClover> Does swap_node affect param2s?
18:28 MTDiscord <GoodClover> minetest.swap_node(pos, node) "Set node at position, but don't remove metadata."
18:29 ensayia it *says* it does not, but in my game I have a node that faces the player when placed, and it swaps out when a timer has expired, but the new node always defaults to facing south because it can't rely on the 'facedir' default any more because it was not placed by a player
18:29 sfan5 param1 and param2 are considered part of the node data, not metadata
18:29 sfan5 anyway all you need to do is this:
18:29 sfan5 local node = minetest.get_node(pos)
18:29 sfan5 node.name = "some:thing"
18:29 sfan5 minetest.swap_node(pos, node)
18:32 ensayia It's confusing what is "node data" and "meta data" sometimes but I see now how you are doing that.
18:32 ensayia Thank you.
18:33 ensayia That helps me fix another issue too and saves me a ton of hassle!

20:14 muurkha I recall that Castle Wolfenstein 3D was prohibited in Germany until a couple of years ago because it shows swastikas (the setting of the game is that you're a POW trying to escape from the Nazis)
20:14 muurkha GoodClove: I think so too
20:14 muurkha *GoodClover
20:15 muurkha hopefully, though, it's permitted to make fun of the Nazis; if not, don't click this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wvEwPLcLcA

20:16 sfan5 ah I forgot that broke years ago
20:17 Krock it really sucks that you understand what they're saying

20:18 muurkha yeah, this is probably one of those things that's less funny if you speak German
