Time Nick Message 00:02 lissobone First activate windows, then activate linux... 00:03 lissobone What's next? Activate minetest? 00:11 FavoritoHJS a) context? 00:11 FavoritoHJS b) we already have to activate minetest, it's called getting a forum account 00:12 lissobone Deactivate minetest? 00:13 lissobone The context is yesterday we discussed here how to deactivate windows. 00:25 FavoritoHJS why? I think the activation key is stored somewhere in the depths of the registry, so if you can find where it is and corrupt it that should work 00:30 Lesha_Vel why 00:31 FavoritoHJS i'm not sure, probably to test what breaks with deactivated windows? 00:33 lissobone And no, activating minetest is not logging into a forums account. 00:53 MTDiscord "your minetest is not activated" is really only a HUD mod away... 🤔 00:53 FavoritoHJS Your free trial of Minetest:tm: will run out in 3 days 00:54 FavoritoHJS Pay 10 Mese to activate or be locked out of your world afterwards 00:56 MTDiscord Haha, yeah, that could even be doable, I guess. 00:56 Lesha_Vel maybe pay $10, it more simplestic 00:57 FavoritoHJS that would require adding a whole currency... for a joke mod 00:57 MTDiscord I always imagined a spoof on those activation dialogs where they ask you what kind of code you have and you have to pick like "a 16 digit hex code" or "a 25-character alphanumeric" (because they had different kinds of activation codes) and there's always that one option for "I don't have a code." For open source, that last one would be the only correct one. 00:58 FavoritoHJS "Please introduce your activation code" [insert 50 characters} 00:58 MTDiscord its rather easy to make a activate minetest mod with huds, if you wanted to do it with formspecs so they couldnt interact till they "activated", good luck, since formspecs are junk and you cant figure out the corner of the screen 00:58 Lesha_Vel i like proprietary software, it can't grant money to author (me) 00:58 MTDiscord I haven't seen an activation mod yet, but I did do an ad removal one. https://content.minetest.net/packages/Warr1024/nc_ad_removal/ 00:59 Lesha_Vel yes, but needed ad removal mod mor multicraft, hehe 01:00 MTDiscord Heh, yeah, removing ads from multicraft would actually make it more pleasant to use, while my ad removal mod makes the game slightly less pleasant. 01:01 MTDiscord well, actually more less pleasant if you play in not English 01:02 FavoritoHJS is that yet another mod soup splattered onto google play with 10 trillion s on top? 01:03 MTDiscord while multicraft game technically is a modsoup, its more like mineclone2 technically being a mod soup. and it runs on top of an engine with lots of tweaks, patches, mostly mobile stuff 01:03 MTDiscord tldr no, its not your usual take minetest, change the branding, add a mod soup and ship 01:05 MTDiscord Yeah, IIRC multicraft includes extensive engine changes 05:01 lissobone I will try the ad removal mod when I come back home. 05:38 lissobone I have tried it. 05:38 lissobone Wooden **Ze. 13:24 MTDiscord It does not remove ads in player chat but I think I got all the ones in the game itself. 15:34 MTDiscord Sounds incomplete to me 18:39 rubenwardy https://blog.minetest.net/2022/10/14/September/ 18:40 Desour > Desour is working on 18:40 Desour that PR is already finished FYI 19:13 muurkha this showed up on Character Assassination News 20 minutes ago: https://minetest.dustlabs.io/ 19:15 MTDiscord no idea what that is, but nice to see paradusts project being featured somewhere 19:17 sfan5 more commonly called "Hacker News" 19:17 Desour "Character Assassination News" reminds me of the guest killing offtopic topic 19:19 MTDiscord ah, ok. i know that 19:19 MTDiscord thanks sfan5 19:20 sfan5 it's not that I knew what it was referring to but I happened to spot it there just now 19:37 MTDiscord wish i had some notification, I'm almost done with a better version of the page which can go directly to any game 19:38 MTDiscord i do find it interesting it hit front page with basically no comments
