IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2010-05-30
⏴ go to previous day
00:01:48 <Zuu> Never though that it could be a bug. :-p Have worked around that one quite a lot in my AI-testing by using town ids instead of names.
00:14:23 <Eddi|zuHause> * __ln__ received a flag of the federal republic of germany as a gift <-- as longa s it's not one with a circular hole in the middle :p
00:16:35 <Eddi|zuHause> (i'm not sure if people get this reference)
00:17:07 <__ln__> (i think i do, but whether i'm people is up to interpretation)
00:19:20 <__ln__> a german guy here promised to sing something in the middle of the market square if germany wins... and so he did. and another one was waving the german flag, but neither got hardly any attention from passers-by.
00:24:18 <Katje_> whats the difference to the near end, far end thing in destintions?
00:25:12 <PeterT> only if the train is smaller than the station it goes to
00:25:25 <Eddi|zuHause> the stopping position on the platform
00:25:29 <PeterT> then near end will make it go to the near side, far end to the far side
00:25:44 <Eddi|zuHause> i suggest middle for best eye candy

15:03:40 <Yexo> TrueBrain: did you already rent a car for the 19th? I could borrow my parents car otherwise for that weekend
15:04:04 <TrueBrain> tomorrow I will call the rental company, as I need a car for the next 4 weeks
15:07:39 <Yexo> if you rent the car anyway it's probably easiest to use that one
15:08:33 <Rubidium> Yexo: otherwise we have to travel to Vjenne (or maybe Almelo) first?
15:09:16 <Yexo> no, I'd pick the car up friday (my father is in den bosch friday

16:16:56 <Yexo> select a few AIs and click download
16:17:08 <Katje_> which do people recommend ?
16:17:24 <PeterT> It's your personal preference
16:58:22 <TrueBrain> Yexo: I will let you know no later than Wednesday; but I can also borrow my parents car for that weekend, so :)

18:24:21 <scr4ve> First of all: Amazing game. But you might already know that. Anyway, I've got a small usability proposal: For inexperienced users it would be nice if you simplify the download page.
18:25:57 <scr4ve> Look how Ubuntu does it - one big download button for the standard download.
18:26:39 <Progman> and what is "standard"?
18:27:10 <Eddi|zuHause> theoretically the download page should "guess" which download is probably right for you
18:27:10 <Progman> there are different OS and versions/types
18:27:11 <Rubidium> scr4ve: but THEY don't have to care about the operating system you're running
18:27:29 *** JostVice has joined #openttd
18:27:32 <Rubidium> and our download page already tries to guess the right version
18:27:45 <scr4ve> Progman: Latest stable installer, no explanation on checksums and so on.

20:08:33 <Eddi|zuHause> lmao... "this can only be in france, because the people cross the road while red" :p
20:08:59 <__ln__> i thought that's london
20:09:27 <Eddi|zuHause> yes ;) the question is always "was this scene shot in france or germany"
20:13:03 <glx> Eddi|zuHause: why wait if there's no car?
20:13:31 <Eddi|zuHause> glx: don't worry, it happens in germany as well... but probably on a slightly lower scale ;)
20:14:00 <Eddi|zuHause> oh great... arte.tv wants me to install silverlight...
20:16:21 <Eddi|zuHause> it's definitely time for html 5
20:17:30 *** _Muddy is now known as Muddy
20:17:37 <glx> not until they agree on the codecs
20:18:28 <glx> maybe with VP8 (but it's not as good as it seems)
20:18:59 <Rubidium> that's google's proposal, right?
20:19:00 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think they should "agree" on a codec, because the codecs probably get outdated/superceded pretty fast, and an update of the standard is probably very difficult
20:19:04 <Rubidium> in that case: I don't trust it
20:19:16 <TrueBrain> VP8 has license issues with x264
20:19:55 <Rubidium> in any case... first abolish software patents world wide!
20:19:59 *** b_jonas has joined #openttd
20:20:03 <TrueBrain> the claim of google turned out to be false .. somewhat ...
20:20:31 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: i fear that europe will get software patents some way or another within the next 10 years
20:21:20 <Eddi|zuHause> i have a feeling the politicians will fold under the lobbying pressure
20:48:38 <Eddi|zuHause> gnah... i was just skimming through FIRS code, and wondered what a "Fruit Sand Vegetables" cargo might be...
20:51:05 <Eddi|zuHause> <spoiler>obviously it means "Fruits and Vegetables"...</spoiler>
20:51:50 <Eddi|zuHause> who the hell made a code style with all caps and no _?
20:52:21 <SpComb> sounds like BASIC to me
20:52:37 <SpComb> the original ASCII didn't have lowercase letters
20:53:07 *** Chillosophy has joined #openttd
20:53:22 <Eddi|zuHause> SpComb: actually the proposal for the first display had no uppercase letters, but the church protested because you can't spell "GOD" that way...
20:53:38 <__ln__> LOWERCASE LETTERS NEED MORE 1-BITS AND CONSUME MORE ENERGY.
20:53:58 <SpComb> agreed, let's just write in control codes
20:54:36 <Eddi|zuHause> technically, bit switches consume more energy...
20:55:04 <Eddi|zuHause> let's abolish the clock...
20:55:48 <SpComb> although hrm, that went down as a CTCP
20:56:15 <SpComb> unfortunate, would probably be better without the \001
20:56:47 <Eddi|zuHause> i believe i also have CTCP on ignore...
20:58:41 <SpComb> on behalf of better ASCII utilization:
20:59:36 <Eddi|zuHause> that didn't look like ascii at all...
21:00:03 <SpComb> the first 0x1F of ASCII are undervalued
21:01:57 <Eddi|zuHause> well, IRC has some conflicting uses for some of the <0x20 codes...
21:02:35 <Eddi|zuHause> especially the code ^I is used for "italics" and "tabulator"...
21:03:36 <Eddi|zuHause> colours are disabled on most "sane" channels
