03:03:09  <DaleStan> [wito]: The *property*, however, does exactly what the wiki says the property does. Nothing more.

09:08:08  <Forked> I thought burping was pretty much the opposite of sucking .. stuff moves the other way
 
09:08:14  <TrueBrain> Today I have class from 1 to 5 ... but it is 23C outside
 
09:08:17  <TrueBrain> dunno if I can take that :(
 
09:18:19  <Rubidium> I know that I can't take the 23C outside at the moment ;)
 
09:19:16  <Rubidium> allergic reactions to the stuff in the air
 
09:20:30  <Rubidium> and not fancying having to go (almost) blind to the doctor for some prednison and friends
 
09:23:32  <XtaS> For a first time for about 5 years I try openttd and I'm hooked right away
 
09:23:53  <Rubidium> it's that old already?
 
09:24:05  <XtaS> wel, transport tycoon is old
 
09:24:17  <XtaS> thats the one I played back then. :)
 
09:24:36  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I am around here for 5 years now :p
 
09:24:55  <XtaS> But I was now wondering, I saw some 32bit textures. Is there any pack for them or anything?
 
09:24:56  <Rubidium> we totally forgot the 5 year anniversary of 0.1.1-0.1.4 last month and 0.2.0-0.3.0 this month
 
09:25:22  <Rubidium> if by pack you mean "a reasonably finished set of graphics" then no
 
09:27:04  <TrueBrain> "I joined OpenTTD in March 2004" <- I even missed celebrating my 5 years being here :p
 
09:27:18  <Rubidium> in 10 days a 0.3.1 5 year anniversary?
 
09:27:39  <Rubidium> hmm, how long ago was the r10000 party?
 
09:27:56  <totalwormage> let's celebrate 'ten days before 5 years 0.3.1' today eh?
 
09:28:21  <TrueBrain> @openttd commit 10000
 
09:28:21  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: Commit r10000 doesn't exists
 
09:28:26  <TrueBrain> @openttd commit 10001
 
09:28:26  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: Commit by belugas :: r10001 /trunk/src (3 files in 2 dirs) (2007-05-31 15:40:36 UTC)
 
09:28:27  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: -Codechange: Add support for removing dynamically allocated newgrf data
 
09:28:29  <XtaS> awww, I'm not following at all anymore whats going on :D
 
09:28:31  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: almost 2 years :p
 
09:28:41  <Rubidium> could do the 'sorry, but 0.3.0 was released 5 years and 2 days ago'
 
09:32:20  <XtaS> hm, so can anyone point me to some direction with theses 32bit grapihics ? ;)
 
09:34:49  <XtaS> hmm, not quite sure what should I try from there
 
09:37:30  <XtaS> or in the 32bt thread i see single files so I'm up to change the models by one at the time?
 
09:38:19  <TrueBrain> 32bit graphics is very ... unorganized; so yeah, you need to find tons of files yourself and all add them in your data dir
 
09:38:25  <TrueBrain> don't forget to enable the 32bpp blitter :)
 
09:38:25  <Rubidium> as I said, there is not pack or so. You have to gather all the graphics and put them together
 
09:39:01  <Rubidium> heh, that blitter's almost 2 years old too
 
09:39:09  <TrueBrain> am I getting THAT old? :(
 
09:40:20  <petern> hehe, richk on a rant again :D
 
09:40:29  <Rubidium> you're not really getting older relatively to me
 
09:40:47  <Rubidium> unless... relativity
 
09:40:48  <petern> should i just reply that, actually, however nice his code was or wasn't, the main problem is his stupid attitude? :D
 
09:42:08  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I am pretty sure my average speed is about the same as your average speed, so we should be fine ;)
 
09:44:54  <Rubidium> true, but we always teased the physics teacher who said that your gravitational mass didn't differ from before you climb a flight of stairs till after you have climbed and descended to your point of origin
 
09:46:11  <Rubidium> physically that might be "true", but mathematically the f does differ
 
09:46:38  <TrueBrain> petern: lol @ thread .. some people really don't get how things wok :) I wish him good luck in real life ... :p
 
09:47:08  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: the difference between those 2 groups :)
 
09:48:23  <TrueBrain> Astronomy is even more lovely ... seconds in a year is just Pi * 10^7 :)
 
09:48:32  <Rubidium> so mathematically speaking our ages have diverged/converged, but physically you're not able to meaure that

10:00:23  <XtaS> What AI's you suggest to have? Convoy is a bit messed up with all those trucks :) admiralAI seems to work okay
 
10:00:34  <XtaS> so far, but any recommends for new ais?
 
10:00:57  <TrueBrain> Plural of AI is AIs ;)
 
10:01:16  <TrueBrain> and just download all of them :)

12:24:01  *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai
 
12:26:35  <Xaroth> Noldo: there are some security issues with default installations of webservers and Joomla (some other big systems as well), that allows people to inject some code on a system.. that's what happens if they make it do a wget eggdrop; run eggdrop ...
 
12:26:53  <Xaroth> i've seen a few hundred attempts on our webserver the past week
 
12:27:29  <Xaroth> (which then fail because wget is chmo'ed to root-only, hrr hrr)
 
12:28:44  <Rubidium> then they'll just curl <file> | bash
 
12:31:03  <Xaroth> they'll face the same issue :)
 
12:32:50  <Rubidium> echo <some code> | php
 
12:33:38  <Xaroth> they'll have issues finding the PHP CLI :)
 
12:34:00  <Xaroth> fun part about php is that you don't need the CLI to run it as apache module
 
12:35:01  <Xaroth> plus we don't host perl sites atm
 
12:36:05  *** maristo has joined #openttd
 
12:40:15  *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai
 
12:47:03  <dihedral> why chmod all those apps, and not chroot the webserver ^^
 
13:01:35  <SpComb> chmod'ing wget to root-only is a rather poor solution...
 
13:02:07  <SpComb> why would you need to run network code with root priviledges just to download some file over HTTP?
 
13:02:41  <petern> people run PHP as an apache module? :s
 
13:02:47  <Xaroth> dihedral: because in this current setup chrooting wouldn't work :/
 
13:03:33  <Xaroth> and given the amount of sites we run on it, simply moving it to a chrooted system isn't as easy as 1 2 3
 
13:07:34  <dihedral> Xaroth, nobody said security was easy :-)
 
13:08:30  <petern> or whatever it's called
 
13:08:59  <petern> i mean for those users who want it
 
13:13:46  *** Klanticus has joined #openttd
 
13:14:09  <TinoDidriksen> Xaroth, look into mpm_itk - runs each vhost as the actual user.
 
13:14:36  *** roboboy has joined #openttd
 
13:19:15  <petern> doesn't really help with the joomla issue :)
 
13:19:49  <Rubidium> joomla sucks anyways
 
13:20:27  <dihedral> typolight is nice, i think nicer than joomla
 
13:20:45  <Xaroth> it's always what the client wants
 
13:20:53  <Xaroth> client insists on joomla, you give him joomla
 
13:21:02  <Xaroth> if the client asks for the best, we give him what we want :)
 
13:21:06  <dihedral> "sorry - we dont host jommla"
 
13:21:41  <Xaroth> webhosting isn't our 'main' thing, so most people we host for are contacts in some form
 
13:21:46  <Xaroth> or people you want to have as contact
 
13:23:16  <Rubidium> oh noes... the end of the world!

13:28:59  <TinoDidriksen> mpm_itk makes it easier. Any crap that gets through and runs will run as their user, not as a global apache. Easier to contain, kill, and plug the hole.

15:00:19  <LUADuck> Hey, more a question to get someone to shut up
 
15:00:42  <LUADuck> Can you enable building Primary Industries without source modifications?
 
15:00:58  <LUADuck> (even though PriBuilds would be horriably unbalanced)
 
15:01:33  <dihedral> read the wiki before asking again!
 
15:01:47  <LUADuck> What, is it a config option or something
 
15:03:28  <LUADuck> I'm missing your point
 
15:06:20  <petern> yes, you can enable it without source modification
 
15:06:43  <LUADuck> Can't find anything at wiki
 
15:06:51  <LUADuck> either that or it's staring me in the face
 
15:08:52  <Swallow> Search for "Primary industries" ?
 
15:10:16  * LUADuck slaps LUADuck around a bit with a large trout
 
15:11:32  * jonty-comp slaps LUATrout around with a large duck
 
15:15:24  <SpComb> struct luaL_ref lua_duck_methods[] = { ... };
 
15:16:01  <SpComb> make that `struct luaL_Reg`
 
15:21:34  * jonty-comp wonders what would happen if you told trac to display the changeset from r1 to r16000
 
15:23:26  <LUADuck> How do you change Industry Volume in .cfg?
 
15:23:32  <LUADuck> I know I CBA to go through the wiki

15:28:55  <dihedral> LUADuck, READ THE FUCKING WIKI
 
15:29:08  <Xaroth> A ListView in .net 1.0 doesn't have a Double Buffer ... in 2.0 it does
 
15:29:32  <Xaroth> yet if you use 2.0 (or 3.0) the default ListView will NOT use that property :/
 
15:32:47  <jonty-comp> that sounds rather silly
 
15:35:22  <Sacro> hmm, perhaps a listview is more what I need
 
15:44:07  <Xaroth> Sacro: create a class that inherits ListView, and on it's constructor: this.DoubleBuffered = true;
 
15:44:31  <Xaroth> the devs who did that could have EASILY done that.. it's 1 fooking line of code
 
15:44:43  <Xaroth> took me half an hour to figure out :/
 
15:53:59  <SpComb> should we have a majority vote?
 
15:54:57  <SpComb> then we can just continue burning Sacro on a stake for being ambiguous

16:47:38  <Zuu> There seam to be an un-fixed error in trunk - AIs are unable to set orders.
 
16:47:59  <Zuu> AIOrder.AppendOrder returns false and the error is ERR_UNKNOWN.
 
16:48:33  <Zuu> (I have even tried NoCab which I know worked some time ago, and it also fails to set orders.)
 
16:49:18  *** DaleStan has joined #openttd
 
16:49:48  <Zuu> I have not downloaded and tried with last trunk, but looking on the change log since last nightly was generated I can't find anything that seams to be a fix to this.
 
16:54:47  <Swallow> I guess AppendOrder does not set the new near_end/middle/far_end flags correctly
 
16:56:01  <Zuu> Sounds like a good guess, and somehow that is needed for buses to :)

17:39:29  <Rubidium> although technically it isn't quite a flag
 
17:39:34  <frosch123> Zuu: just the right thing after work :)
 
17:42:45  <Zuu> Too bad its CEST, so I have to wait until tomorrow time for next nightly, so I probably better compile my own binary, while thinking about what to make for dinner.
 
17:43:08  <Rubidium> you CEST is different from my CEST?
 
17:44:23  <frosch123> Zuu: does compiling yourself take longer than 50 minutes?
 
17:44:49  <Zuu> Or did I count wrong on hours ...
 
17:44:56  <Rubidium> frosch123: an UEBERFAT OSX binary would
 
17:44:58  <Zuu> Compiling myself would not be more than 10-15 minutes.
 
17:45:17  <frosch123> so you can finish it before the nightly starts
 
17:45:25  <Zuu> Inculding time for SVN and starting MSVC, as long as I make a debug-build.
 
17:46:25  <Rubidium> okay, that's without MSVC
 
17:47:43  <Rubidium> you already had it ;)
 
17:48:00  <Zuu> also allow some time for not using CLI :-p

19:55:34  <TrueBrain> but giving your opinion on a community which you left 18 months ago .. is .. well .. ranting :)
 
19:56:13  <TrueBrain> but okay, I kind of enjoyed reading it :p
 
19:57:18  <petern> frosch123, congrats, you actually read it all :D
 
19:57:42  <frosch123> I you mean the specs, I read them over a year ago
 
19:58:01  <petern> or if i did, i forgot them :p
 
19:58:02  <TrueBrain> I read: newgrf blablabla var02 blablabla
 
19:58:09  <frosch123> I implemented them during one night in grf2html, as I thought they were properly designed and officially supported
 
19:58:10  <TrueBrain> somehow I never can get passed that blockade in my mind :p
 
19:58:21  <TrueBrain> (for any newgrf spec, for the record)
 
19:58:23  <frosch123> I also though they were designed with support by mr D
 
19:58:39  <frosch123> after actually implementing them, I was quite confused
 
19:59:12  <frosch123> I started to doubt my newgrf knowledge, because I though D had designed such a weird spec...
 
19:59:41  <frosch123> I don't know when I concluded, that my initial assumption must have been very wrong :)

20:36:04  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: rubidium * r16064 /trunk/src/network/network_gamelist.cpp: -Fix: memory leak when querying a server multiple times.
 
20:37:12  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: rubidium * r16065 /trunk/src/network/ (core/address.h network_gui.cpp): -Fix: don't readd (and resolve) the last joined server each time the window gets repainted
 
20:44:24  * Rubidium doesn't even get an image when booting... too much wasted effort
 
20:44:51  <SmatZ> at least I can show I have 4 cores running ;)
 
20:44:56  <Rubidium> and everyone that reads the release notes would've known it
 
20:45:13  <SmatZ> I knew it, but still I was scared ;)
 
20:45:41  <SmatZ> it's been quite long time since release :)
 
20:45:49  <Prof_Frink> I get an image, but it's not penguinous.
 
20:49:25  <petern> booting? what's booting?
 
20:49:38  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: rubidium * r16066 /trunk/src/openttd.cpp: -Fix: another memory leak.
 
20:51:08  <Prof_Frink> petern: Something I'll be well-equipped to do at work tomorrow.
 
20:51:49  <dihedral> i dont boot often enough to see what is displayed ^^

21:05:07  <SmatZ> TrueBrain: *scary noises*
 
21:05:28  <TrueBrain> and there is lightning in the background too
 
21:05:59  <SmatZ> beware of whatever is waiting under your bed, TrueBrain
 
21:06:16  <TrueBrain> SmatZ: my bed is directly connected to the ground
 
21:06:23  <TrueBrain> so .. that will be hard :p
 
21:06:48  <SmatZ> TrueBrain: the bed itself is hungry
 
21:07:00  <SmatZ> BED *om nom nom nom* TB
