02:28:12  *** glx has quit IRC

05:04:42  *** fjb is now known as Guest1465

05:04:43  *** fjb has joined #openDune

05:11:57  *** Guest1465 has quit IRC

08:57:45  *** Alberth has joined #openDune

08:58:02  <Alberth> congrats, your forum has been detected by spammers :p

12:03:44  <Xaroth_> again?

12:04:12  <Alberth> I may have missed earlier cases :)

12:04:19  <Xaroth_> i'm SO glad I put in the anti-linkspam thingie..

12:04:44  <Alberth> the conversion to plain text, you mean?

12:04:55  <Xaroth_> and the lack of urlification of the urls, yes

12:05:10  <Xaroth_> one has to have 10+ posts before urls can be posted iirc

12:07:03  <Alberth> now that I find you here, you said "We are attempting to create a 1:1 re-creation of the original code, or at least as close as possible. ..."

12:07:16  <Alberth> I was wondering why that is the goal

12:07:42  <Alberth> you see the same thing with Corsix-TH, except they build from scratch

12:08:04  <Alberth> I am wondering why this is a good goal, ie why not improve immediately

12:09:15  <Alberth> or did you never consider that given the point where you started from?

12:14:39  <Xaroth_> we did consider it

12:14:49  <Xaroth_> but just about -every- dune 2 clone out there wants to 'improve' things

12:14:58  <Xaroth_> and with that, lose the unique dune 2 feel

12:15:23  <Xaroth_> and besides the decompilation things is basically 1:1 conversion

12:15:39  <Xaroth_> and we do add some enhancements of thigns we see are clearly flawed

12:17:46  <Alberth> that seems a sound reasoning to me :)   thanks for explaining

12:17:52  <Xaroth_> :)

12:28:41  <Alberth> what's going to happen with all the patches I dumped here yesterday?

12:35:13  <Xaroth_> er, that bit I don't go about, will have to prod TrueBrain for that one :P

12:52:27  *** glx has joined #openDune

12:52:27  *** ChanServ sets mode: +o glx

12:52:49  <glx> hello

12:54:59  <Alberth> hello

13:59:52  *** TrueBrain has quit IRC

14:04:31  <Alberth> he escapes :)

14:33:32  <Xaroth|Work> guess his system doesn't like him either

14:51:17  *** TrueBrain has joined #openDune

14:55:28  <TrueBrain> ffs, had a fight with my machines :(

14:55:43  <glx> seems you won

14:55:52  <TrueBrain> Alberth: I can't get at the source code atm, busy with study etc .. will most likely look at your patch this week or something :)

14:55:56  <TrueBrain> yeah ... I won hard ...

14:56:03  <TrueBrain> Debian by default starts a apt-indexer

14:56:13  <TrueBrain> I build 3 machines with 64 MB for some erlang testing

14:56:20  <TrueBrain> so it started to swap out heavily

14:56:25  <TrueBrain> killing all I/O to the box

14:56:34  <TrueBrain> ffs .... if I want to index apt-shit, I CALL IT MANUALLY

14:56:38  <TrueBrain> retarded shit

14:56:51  * Alberth hates these automagic processes

14:58:17  <TrueBrain> even more if they don't know how to handle low mem systems :(

21:02:28  *** Alberth has left #openDune

continue to next day ⏵
