05:50:42 <matkum> good morning, faboulous people
05:51:14 <matkum> as a rookie with openttd, I have a question
05:52:49 <matkum> so, if a factory produces 100 units of goods, how many carts should I purchase for transporting goods so it would be optimized
05:53:02 <matkum> 50%, 70%, 20% of the total capacity?
05:53:05 *** Pensacola has joined #openttd
05:53:07 <Supercheese> that depends on many factors
05:53:17 <Supercheese> size of wagons, station cargo rating
05:53:24 <Supercheese> wagon loading speed
05:53:36 <V453000> doesnt matter on anything, just use as many trains as you need, regardless their size
05:54:08 <Supercheese> generally, try to have one train loading all the time, and then if you can manage to get things such that once the loading train gets a full load, another empty train comes immediately to take its place
05:54:14 <matkum> so it does not matter that if I transport the whole 100 units per time
05:54:17 <Supercheese> that's the "best"
05:54:37 <Supercheese> but of course things are rarely, if ever, that steady-state
05:55:05 <matkum> okay. I will try that. thanks guys
05:56:13 <V453000> you cant have 100% in long term
05:56:40 <V453000> unless you autorenew your trains every year or so? :d
05:57:20 <Supercheese> or use improve station rating algorithms
05:57:31 *** AndreasB has joined #openttd
05:57:32 <matkum> oh, is there autorenew feature as well? cool
05:57:55 <V453000> well autorenew just buys the same model just to make it "new"
05:58:11 <V453000> not really useful for anything except increasing station ratings for the first year or two
05:59:38 <AndreasB> Do you have anything useful that can help me not going to work? :pp
05:59:59 <AndreasB> "Sorry, train broke down, cant come to work today"
06:00:23 <AndreasB> -.- somehow I dont think that helps at work
06:06:00 <AndreasB> Does anyone know how I can get better quality stuff in the game? When I zoom in my eyes cry for help
06:06:26 <AndreasB> I tried looking at "how to play with 32 bp" thingie, but that didnt help at all
06:07:16 <matkum> ttd in hd, would be cool, indeed
06:07:40 <AndreasB> doesnt have to be hd, just better than what it is now
06:07:57 <AndreasB> which I think is 8bps
06:16:01 <maddy_> AndreasB: maybe something is wrong with your eyes? I thought openttd has pretty good looking graphics :)
06:28:01 <AndreasB> So you claim zooming all the way in gives -good- graphics?
06:28:30 <matkum> AndreasB: i tried zooming. it looks grainy and I agree with you that the graphics should be more detailed
06:28:55 <maddy_> no, actually, I just don't use those extra zoom-in levels at all, I play at the 'default' zoom where things still look good
06:29:22 <V453000> not like the extra zoom levels are particularly useful
06:29:45 <maddy_> if you want to zoom in really close, then you should probably use the 32bpp base graphics set
06:30:20 <Supercheese> Have you downloaded zBase?
06:30:28 <AndreasB> anyways, off to work
06:30:38 <AndreasB> zbase wasnt up for download
06:30:49 <Supercheese> Content Download -> zBase
06:31:08 <Supercheese> Check Online Content, rather
06:31:23 <Supercheese> sort by name -> bottom of list
06:33:46 <AndreasB> dang that dl is slow
06:34:18 <Supercheese> 2 Megabytes per second is fast in my book
06:34:28 <AndreasB> I downloaded BF3 in origin at 63 MB/s
06:34:38 <Supercheese> what connection do you have?
06:36:10 <AndreasB> NOW THATS different!
06:36:42 <AndreasB> anyways, bbl, work time :D
06:46:11 <__ln__> better than what i have

09:24:38 <AndreasB> __ln__: What do you have?
09:56:41 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
10:00:39 <peter1138> Oh for god's sake...
10:00:50 *** Midnightmyth has joined #openttd
10:15:40 <peter1138> Now... should I get an AeroPress?
10:42:49 *** tycoondemon has joined #openttd
10:47:07 <oskari89> Someone has copied some shapes from Aston Martini in that case
10:52:19 <LordAro> i think aston martin needs to find themselves some lawyers
11:06:12 <peter1138> One black car looks similar to another black car? Okay.
11:07:01 <LordAro> the grill, specifically
11:08:45 <peter1138> Yeah, looks similar to a Mini.
11:28:54 <AndreasB> nana....naaaiii (Watching videos of Niall Horan is bad.. )
11:33:35 <maddy_> AndreasB: I'll take your word for it
11:52:32 *** guo_linux has joined #openttd
11:56:55 <MNIM> I was wondering, why is that aston martin wearing a ford badge?
12:08:27 <AndreasB> maddy_: I keep going around saying "nana....Naaiii"
12:08:46 <AndreasB> And other strange sounds.. Life would be boring without strange sounds
12:14:14 <LordAro> MNIM: someone understands! :p
12:21:16 <maddy_> AndreasB: yes, that is enough information for me about that subject, so I'll have to take your word for it, was my point
12:21:29 <AndreasB> You dont like One Direction?
12:21:49 <maddy_> I mean, I don't know who he or she is, and don't want to know based on what I've heard so far, so I don't want to google it up
12:23:08 <maddy_> because I tend to have a bad habit of googling everything up that I haven't heard about
12:23:36 <AndreasB> o.O But Niall Horan is hot :D :P
12:24:21 <peter1138> Nah, he looks like a little boy.
12:24:42 <LordAro> AndreasB: just wondering, how old are you?
12:25:21 <AndreasB> Well, at least on paper
12:25:43 <AndreasB> peter1138: You must be looking at an old picture
12:26:14 <peter1138> Whatever appeared on Google images.
12:26:43 <LordAro> i am NOT having that link in my history
12:27:13 <maddy_> still not looking it up :) and not clicking on that link
12:27:17 <AndreasB> peter1138: Whats wrong with 20yo's?`
12:27:35 <AndreasB> Im still w aiting for a good reason
12:27:53 <peter1138> Two, I'm not really into men.
12:28:15 <V453000> looks like 20 yo faggot or 13 yo boyie
12:28:21 *** ntoskrnl has joined #openttd
12:28:29 <AndreasB> peter1138: Thats a good point
12:28:41 <AndreasB> But even as a straight man, you have to admit that hes above average
12:29:02 <AndreasB> Niall is above average
12:29:09 <AndreasB> [14:28:23] <V453000> looks like 20 yo faggot
12:29:35 <AndreasB> Why? Do you care what sexual orientation other people have?
12:30:10 *** DanMacK has joined #openttd
12:30:11 <LordAro> AndreasB: now i'm confused. what gender are you?
12:30:20 <peter1138> AndreasB, well, homophobic men always seem to think a homosexual man is going to want to rape them... stupid.
12:30:45 <LordAro> run away while you still can DanMacK :)
12:30:59 <peter1138> Why? The GPL argument stopped hours ago.
12:31:21 <DanMacK> heh, I was there for a bit of that
12:31:44 *** guo_linux is now known as xiaoguo
12:31:50 <peter1138> LordAro, Andreas is a male name, so...
12:31:50 <V453000> I dont understand licenses for shit after yesterday
12:32:04 *** Pensacola has joined #openttd
12:32:24 <DanMacK> It's confusing on the best day
12:32:27 <V453000> everybody is what they want on the internet, sac is probably male too
12:32:47 <peter1138> Most people are just douches.
12:35:19 <peter1138> Not that I'm aware of, yet :p
12:39:42 <maddy_> if you have to ask if you're a douche or not, doesn't that make you dangerously close to being one?
12:43:30 <AndreasB> [14:30:28] <@peter1138> AndreasB, well, homophobic men always seem to think a homosexual man is going to want to rape them... stupid.
12:43:37 <AndreasB> If he looks like Niall he better run :D
12:43:57 <AndreasB> And yes, Andreas is a boys name
12:44:13 <maddy_> AndreasB: so you're gay or bi then? and wanted to share that with us?
12:44:13 <AndreasB> My name is NOT Andrea :P
12:44:28 <AndreasB> I'm me, are you you?
12:44:50 <AndreasB> Why do I have to put myself in a .. "box" ?
12:45:07 <AndreasB> If the question is "Can you find a boy attractive" then the answer is yes
12:45:37 <AndreasB> The problem with English language is that you only have one word for bisexual
12:45:47 <AndreasB> while we in Norwegian (According to me atleast) have two.
12:46:01 <AndreasB> One to define who you can fall in love with, and one to define the sexual part
12:46:26 <maddy_> people in general like to categorize things, including other people...put them in neatly defined boxes with neat little labels
12:46:39 <AndreasB> And in my opinion sexuality is more complicated than "yes/no"
12:47:00 <AndreasB> Some people tend to get mad at me when I can say that something is gay
12:47:04 * roboboy goes to have a look at this GPL arguement
12:47:13 <AndreasB> Boys watching my little pony for example is pretty gay
12:47:27 <AndreasB> That doesnt mean that I am saying that you have to watch it if one is gay
12:47:43 <AndreasB> But, this has nothing to do with openttd, so imma shut up now
12:48:21 <maddy_> you sure? could be extremely important for the next openttd release..
12:49:14 <AndreasB> I find openttd confusing
12:49:20 <AndreasB> Whenever I start a game I have no idea what to do
12:50:15 <AndreasB> Can a train "line" be too long? Is there an optimal length for length->Payment ratio?
12:51:23 <blathijs> roboboy: Rumour goes you occasionally play with the DOS build of OpenTTD, is that true?
12:51:26 <juzza1> depends on the newgrf (answer is no)
12:51:27 <planetmaker> yes. yes. check the payment graphs. And figure it out
12:51:58 <roboboy> I do ocasionaly. I even wrote the article on the Wiki about setting it up.
12:52:02 <planetmaker> yes, payment graphcs.
12:52:34 <peter1138> I'm not too fussed about labels, it's when labels are used to persecute...
12:52:55 <peter1138> (Damn that V453000 throwing around that f-word)
12:53:28 <peter1138> Also damn my internet connection for being so laggy right now :S
12:53:34 <blathijs> roboboy: (you might need a git checkout and "git am" to apply that patch, since it contains a number of renamed files that a regular patch probably won't pick up)
12:54:22 <roboboy> well I never got DOS compilation working. I think the build I had was buit by Rubidium
12:54:39 <blathijs> roboboy: Ah, right. Never mind, then :_)
12:55:45 <roboboy> Iv'e book marked it incase I do get it working
12:56:35 <blathijs> roboboy: I'll probably commit that today or tomorrow anyway :-)
12:57:16 <roboboy> ok. If someone wants to build it for me, then I will get my DOS machine running again.
12:58:40 <roboboy> I think FreeDOS comes with all the extras I mentioned on the wiki anyway
12:59:56 <roboboy> I should set it up regardless to test TTDPatch 2.5's nearly final build before it is released as a Stable :P
13:01:57 <Eddi|zuHause> wait... TTDPatch stable? :p
13:05:43 <V453000> peter1138: FUCK what?
13:07:02 <roboboy> 99% of known bugs are fixed in the 2.5 branch of TTDPatch and patchman has agreed to release it as a stable when the last bug is fixed.
13:07:46 <Eddi|zuHause> V453000 arguing for "realism" would be a first :p
13:10:26 <blathijs> roboboy: Quick, submit more bugs! ;-P
13:10:56 <roboboy> there is always 2.6 for that
13:11:15 <AndreasB> why not just incorporate it into openttd?
13:11:48 <roboboy> yeah, he is alive if only by email once in a while
13:12:47 <roboboy> because I want to play TTD and not OpenTTD, OpenTTD no longer feels like TTD in my opinion while TTDPatch still does and I want to play TTD
13:14:12 <DanMacK> OpenTTD in my opinion is more like TTD2 at this point
13:14:34 <AndreasB> TTDPatch something for TTD or for openttd also?
13:15:19 <roboboy> We may not have NewGRF's without it
13:15:21 <juzza1> TTDP is what started this madness
13:15:50 <roboboy> I suspect OpenTTD would have gone a different route that TTDP couldn't take
13:16:40 <roboboy> well I should go to bed
13:16:41 <AndreasB> how come openttd doesnt break any copyright rules?
13:16:49 <AndreasB> Isnt it basicly the same thing?
13:17:03 <DanMacK> oh shit... lol Close that can of worms
13:17:16 <roboboy> long story short no one realy knows if it did or didn't
13:17:42 <DanMacK> it might in some areas, not in others
13:18:27 <AndreasB> But does it use any TTD code? o.O
13:18:33 <roboboy> the original work was done behind closed doors and then made Open Source once it ran. It suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the TT-Forums admin's inbox one day
13:18:50 <roboboy> that's my understanding of how it happened
13:19:18 <roboboy> DanMacK, probably knows more as he was arround this community before I found it
13:22:39 <DanMacK> heh, Ive been here awhile for sure
13:22:46 <planetmaker> from my understanding, what the original author did was legal at least in the place he did it
13:23:05 <DanMacK> He decoded it and rewrote it in C AFAIK
13:23:26 <planetmaker> people tend to forget that legislation differs between countries
13:24:02 <planetmaker> and that legislation changed quite a bit, too
13:29:10 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think anybody here actually checked swedish law...
13:29:29 <Eddi|zuHause> basically, we all take his word for it
13:29:42 <Eddi|zuHause> and so far nobody has sued, so no court has told otherwise
13:41:02 <AndreasB> OpenTTD is swedish ? :D
13:41:27 <AndreasB> Weird how most players are either polish or russian :S
13:43:22 <planetmaker> openttd is neither Swedish nor Russian nor Polish.
13:43:52 <planetmaker> nor would I believe that "most players" are Russian or Polish (though both countries have strong communities)
13:44:08 <AndreasB> Most players I see are polish or russian
13:44:15 <AndreasB> And I see ~0 scandinavian players
13:44:28 <AndreasB> How does the player list work? Are there a lot of servers not listed?
13:44:42 <planetmaker> that's different. I see scandinavian people daily here
13:45:14 <planetmaker> sometimes. I play the meta game in this channel ;-)
13:46:15 <planetmaker> and at the last two OpenTTD meetings we had more than 10% Scandinavians. But 0% Russians and Polish participants ;-)
13:47:15 <planetmaker> and it's hard to judge the 10000s of players who never show up anywhere but just play :-)
13:47:59 <AndreasB> real players go multiplayer
13:48:30 <AndreasB> I would count as unresolved :D
13:48:42 <AndreasB> Does it check based on reverse host?
13:49:32 <Xaroth|Work> what's even more disturbing
13:49:44 <planetmaker> I'd say you'd count as "Norwegian"
13:50:05 <AndreasB> AndreasB is andreas@80.64.200.25
13:50:35 <Xaroth|Work> an ip is not a TLD
13:51:26 <Xaroth|Work> but that range's rdns is covered by brisner.no
13:51:30 <Xaroth|Work> so i agree with planetmaker
13:55:13 <Xaroth|Work> LordAro: regexp on \d.\d(optional .\d)
13:55:54 <LordAro> you're going to have to be more explicit than that :p (i'm not very good at bash/regex)
13:57:14 <Xaroth|Work> wait, that doesn't reeaally work
13:57:14 <SpComb> you need some + in there
13:57:23 <Xaroth|Work> (\d+\.\d+(\.\d+)?)
13:57:47 <AndreasB> Xaroth: Never said it was.
13:57:59 <Xaroth|Work> will match any <digit(s)>.<digit(s)>[.<digit(s)>]
13:58:05 <Xaroth|Work> AndreasB: 15:50 < AndreasB> I count as .25
13:58:18 <Xaroth|Work> that makes the assumption that everything after the @ is a hostname
13:58:26 <LordAro> Xaroth|Work: umm, you sure? i'm getting no output
13:58:46 <AndreasB> GeoIP should never be done based on rnds
13:58:58 <Xaroth|Work> no, but people do it by rdns ;)
13:59:25 <AndreasB> as described in the IP block
14:00:34 <Xaroth|Work> LordAro: not sure how to do that with grep
14:00:57 <LordAro> Xaroth|Work: what would you use then? ;p
14:01:48 <planetmaker> hail thee, fellow meta player from Scandinavia ;-)
14:03:04 <planetmaker> oh, you don't have a "bahnhof" address anymore :D
14:04:16 <Zuu> I may use them as ISP again, but where I am at the moment they aren't available.
14:04:17 <planetmaker> not like I keep track of it
14:04:37 <planetmaker> but we had this topic about hostnames just now :-)
14:12:34 <LordAro> "grep --only-matching '[0-9]\+\.[0-9]\+\(\.[0-9]\+\)\?'" <-- does that seem like an excessive number of backslashes to anyone else?
14:13:37 <Xaroth|Work> needs more backslashes tbh
14:14:02 <Xaroth|Work> but shouldn't \d work better than [0-9] ?
14:14:31 <Xaroth|Work> \\d\+\.\\d\+\(\.\\d\+\)\?
14:14:38 <Xaroth|Work> (moar backslashes \o/ )
14:16:02 <LordAro> at least, not with the default regex mode
14:16:12 <LordAro> (and no, i can't be bothered to test the others :P )
14:20:53 <Eddi|zuHause> tried "grep -E"?
14:21:43 <Eddi|zuHause> i always get confused which regexp parts need escaping and which don't...
14:22:19 * Zuu too as it differs from parser to parser
14:22:33 <Eddi|zuHause> we should standardize regexp to end the confusion! :p
14:22:59 <Zuu> yeah that would be good :-)
14:23:54 <SpComb> I can never get vim's regexps right on the first try
14:26:06 <retro|cz> SpComb, where is problem?
14:26:32 <SpComb> it has different escaping rules for regexp symbols than any other regexp engine I've ever used
14:27:17 <Eddi|zuHause> i vaguely remember thinking that vim's escaping rules were "better", but i'm not quite sure
14:27:44 <SpComb> it wants you to escape everything, except some things
14:31:02 <SpComb> (and then it also has four different modes for escaping more or fewer things)
14:32:16 <Zuu> It depends on how you use it. If you use it mostly as a plain text search, then it is better to reverse escaping so that you need to write eg. \[0-9\] to make a class. But if you use the classes more, then a more traditional escaping is better.
14:33:03 <Zuu> I guess that is why some symbols in vim needs a \ to become a magic symbol.
14:33:05 <SpComb> the default is * but \+. And [...] but \(...\)
14:36:52 <Eddi|zuHause> oh, now i remember what was "better" with vim: you could do multi-line matching
14:47:48 *** Hendrick has joined #openttd
15:06:10 <peter1138> Hmm, should I use object locking or exceptions?
15:07:00 <peter1138> if (dict.ContainsKey(foo)) return dict[foo];
15:07:27 <peter1138> dict could've been changed
15:09:44 <Eddi|zuHause> then exceptions might help you
15:10:12 <Eddi|zuHause> try: return dict[foo] except Whatever: blah
15:10:42 <peter1138> lock (padlock) if (dict.ContainsKey(foo)) return dict[foo];
15:10:59 <peter1138> and make sure padlock is locked if dict changes
15:11:04 <Eddi|zuHause> i generally try to avoid evaluating the same thing twice
15:11:42 <peter1138> skip the containskey bit
15:12:22 <peter1138> someone is bound to complain that that is using exceptions as flow control which is bad and wrong
15:13:23 <Eddi|zuHause> then give the reason "do not evaluate dict twice, because it might change"
15:14:09 <Eddi|zuHause> but if you worry about dict changing, who says that dict[foo] is atomic?
15:14:32 *** Hendrick_ has joined #openttd
15:16:05 <peter1138> maybe i should use exceptions AND the lock, heh
15:19:45 <TWerkhoven> if so, why not use dict.get(foo), itll return None if key does not exist
15:28:22 <Eddi|zuHause> TWerkhoven: but what if dict[foo] is None?
15:28:38 *** DanMacK has joined #openttd
15:28:40 <Eddi|zuHause> and it still doesn't say anwhere that .get() is atomic either
15:30:04 <DanMacK> Anyone use Tortoise hg?
15:30:58 <DanMacK> was going to ask how to purge pending changes instead of pushing them
15:31:45 <Eddi|zuHause> "France forbids 'beauty contests' for people under the age of 16"
15:33:25 <planetmaker> DanMacK, you want to loose that work. Or just remove the commits?
15:33:49 <juzza1> I ran into that once, solved by deleting local repo and pulling remote, but i guess there must be a better way
15:34:17 <Xaroth|Work> Eddi|zuHause: you can create an arbitrary empty object
15:34:20 <Xaroth|Work> and use .get(foo, empty)
15:34:25 <Xaroth|Work> and compare the result to empty :)
15:34:50 <oskari89> Right click the one changeset you want to get rid of (not yet pushed)
15:35:11 <oskari89> Modify history at the bottom -> Strip
15:35:38 <oskari89> And then click strip :)
15:35:47 <Eddi|zuHause> Xaroth|Work: and how is that any shorter/clearer/more elegant/safer/whatever than catching a KeyError exception?
15:35:54 <blathijs> peter1138: Doing dict[foo] and catch an exception is more pythonic
15:36:03 <Xaroth|Work> Eddi|zuHause: exceptions are expensive
15:36:14 <Xaroth|Work> blathijs: that's debatable
15:36:25 <oskari89> DanMacK: Did that work? :)
15:37:23 <Eddi|zuHause> Xaroth|Work: but how are you hiding "empty" in a way that it is guaranteed to never be used outside this function?
15:38:54 <blathijs> Xaroth|Work: It's commonly referred to as "Easier to ask forgiveness than permission" (EAFP) and AFAIK it's considered the more sane programming style in python
15:39:11 <blathijs> THat said, I can't find it in a PEP or anything really authorative
15:39:58 <blathijs> Xaroth|Work: Are exeptions so expensive in python? Also, doing the lookup twice (in the common case where the key _is_ in the dict) als seems expensive to me

16:01:39 <blathijs> peter1138: Ah, the casing of ContainsKey should have tipped me off there :-)
16:06:08 <peter1138> I wonder if that's just a generic crap about exceptions though...
16:06:33 <peter1138> In 99.999% of cases the key will exist, so the exception won't be triggered.
16:06:39 <Eddi|zuHause> i think that's just generic crap about exceptions
16:06:53 <blathijs> optimizing for the common case seems the better strategy to me
16:07:02 <peter1138> there is a very very minor chance of the dict changing between the check and the lookup
16:07:13 <peter1138> the usual wisdom is to insert a lock
16:07:27 <peter1138> but what about the performance penalty of doing a lock that 99.99% of the time is not needed...
16:09:54 <peter1138> try-catch is faster when most lookups are successful
16:10:43 <peter1138> (the particular example there is bogus)
16:10:58 <blathijs> peter1138: I do think that holds for most locks, that they're not needed 99.99% of the time :-)
16:11:35 <blathijs> But it also depends if the dict itself makes any kind of guarantees about thread-safety
16:12:46 <blathijs> I can imagine implementations of a dict which would crash if you insert something into the dict halfway a lookup

16:31:01 <alluke> time goes so fast in normal ottd
16:31:09 <alluke> must cheat it back a bit
16:38:21 <Eddi|zuHause> write a daylength patch
17:05:29 <peter1138> Oh well, I decided on a simpler solution. The dict is never actually updated, only replaced. So I can just take a local copy of it.
17:06:48 <peter1138> Now, unless a = b is not atomic, it shouldn't need locking ever.
17:21:24 <Rubidium> in a highly pipelined CPU, what is atomic?

17:27:08 <retro|cz> peter1138, Do you have plan to rewrite OTTD into C#?
17:29:31 <Rubidium> it's easy to write "OTTD" in C# ;)
17:30:13 <LordAro> Console.Writeline("OTTD"); :D
17:30:16 <Rubidium> public class OTTD { publis static void Main { System.Console.WriteLine("OTTD"); } }
17:30:45 <LordAro> and i forgot the capital 'L'
17:32:04 * Rubidium guestimates that's in the order of magnitude of 1% of all C# code I've ever written ;)
17:32:39 <LordAro> probably about 0.1% for me :)
17:32:49 <LordAro> and you still managed to do it better :p
17:34:20 <retro|cz> peter1138, sad story :/
17:34:30 <LordAro> bash: "`...`" or "$(...)" ? i've read that "`...`" is deprecated
17:35:28 <retro|cz> damn Rubidium you're C# superstar
17:35:40 <retro|cz> It should be pubic I think.
17:41:40 <Eddi|zuHause> does clicking on "create project" in msvc count as "writing code"?
17:42:42 <Pinkbeast> It's meta-writing code

18:10:57 <peter1138> retro|cz, why sad? It would only make it slower...
18:13:46 <LordAro> peter1138: but you'd have a patch for making it faster, right?
18:14:35 <Eddi|zuHause> but it would lie there for years not being committed
18:14:51 <retro|cz> no, it will be paid patch in Windows Store
18:17:20 <peter1138> Heh, I do all my C#ing on mono...
18:20:56 <Eddi|zuHause> hey, i was young and needed the money...
18:21:21 <LordAro> something, something, morals, something
18:21:35 <peter1138> Hmm, 2560x1440 monitors...
18:22:09 <retro|cz> Eddi|zuHause, so you're former porno actor?
18:22:43 <peter1138> LordAro, better, 2560x1600. 16:10 ratio :D
18:23:23 <peter1138> or £650 +vat for the 10 bit version, hmm...
18:23:33 <Eddi|zuHause> you can't say '30"' and "porno" within few lines :p
18:23:58 <LordAro> i'll just wait for a 4k screen :)
18:24:31 <Eddi|zuHause> why pay 10k for it?
18:24:47 <peter1138> Eddi|zuHause, and another 10k for the GPUs needed...
18:24:49 <Rubidium> 4k is pretty low quality ;)
18:26:02 <LordAro> fine then, and eyefinity setup of 6x4k screens :p
18:26:09 <oskari89> OpenTTD at 2560x1600 sounds fine :D
18:26:12 <Eddi|zuHause> i think i already paid way enough on my 100€ graphics card
18:26:13 <Rubidium> I already seen 8k in real life over 5 years ago
18:27:13 <Rubidium> or rather, "Super Hi-Vision" as that also boast 22.2 surround sound besides 8K
18:28:01 <LordAro> Rubidium: are you talking about a cinema? :p
18:29:22 <Rubidium> apparantly it's still quite buggy
18:29:27 <Rubidium> but no, not in the cinema
18:30:11 <Rubidium> it was in a research lab at NHK
18:33:38 <LordAro> ah, NHK, i might have known
18:34:14 <Eddi|zuHause> it would probably be weird to get a screen instead of a projector in a cinema
18:37:13 <LordAro> regarding eyefinity, that seems to be a bug with the driver in general - i experience those problems myself (1x1080p screen, catalyst driver)
18:38:56 *** TomyLobo has joined #openttd
18:46:46 *** valhallasw has joined #openttd
18:50:20 <glx> LordAro: catalyst is the problem ;)
18:51:37 <glx> a driver that needs .net framework (even if it's only for the control center) is not a good thing for me
18:52:29 <Eddi|zuHause> what's wrong with .net framework?
18:53:58 *** FLHerne has joined #openttd
18:56:20 <glx> it just slows windows starting, because it needs to launch .net to be able to launch control center
18:57:28 <LordAro> glx: unfortunately, it's the only option for any sort of gaming - the opensource version just isn't up to it (yet)
18:58:13 <Eddi|zuHause> honestly, i have never cared about windows startup time on my systems
18:58:41 <Eddi|zuHause> but on my father's computer it takes like 15 minutes until it's usable
18:59:28 <glx> and if you try to do something with it before that time it may hang
19:00:21 <Eddi|zuHause> i've had that happen a few times
19:00:27 <Eddi|zuHause> and always when i was in a hurry
19:06:20 <Xaroth|Work> glx: the .net requirement is only for the control center; which is loaded after startup, not during
19:07:35 <glx> and it's loaded at session opening
19:09:11 <Eddi|zuHause> that can probably be disabled
19:29:31 <LordAro> wait, .net? fairly sure i haven't got that - unless they include it in their linux versions :L
19:30:32 *** Prof_Frink has joined #openttd
19:31:58 <retro|cz> glx, you can disable that in msconfig
19:38:12 <Xaroth|Work> LordAro: on linux it's called Mono, most likely
19:42:36 <LordAro> i do have mono, but as far as i can tell, it's not required for the control-center
19:45:59 <LordAro> well what were you talking about then? :p
19:46:38 <Xaroth|Work> the windows client?
19:46:49 <Xaroth|Work> or at least, glx was :P
19:47:11 <LordAro> you replied to me though :p
19:48:39 <Eddi|zuHause> well, would have been more clear if you said fglrx driver :=)
19:49:03 <Xaroth|Work> LordAro: you mentioned not having .net
19:49:46 <LordAro> "...unless they include it in their linux versions :L" :p

20:24:43 <AndreasB> Are transfers paid on transfer?
20:25:01 <AndreasB> If I have a line thats 50 tiles, transfer, then new line 50 tiles, deliver
20:25:06 <AndreasB> is that 100 line cargo?
20:27:40 <frosch123> you only get real money for the final delivery
20:28:24 <frosch123> the intermediate yellow income does not affect your bank balance, it's just transfered from the train that picks up the cargo again to the one which brought it
20:33:33 <Eddi|zuHause> no, you can't make money buy just shoving back and forth the same passengers
20:45:41 <AndreasB> A to B, transfer. B to C, deliver
20:47:09 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, you get paid for A to C, the transfer credit is just so that the A to B vehicle won't have negative income all the time
20:59:16 <Eddi|zuHause> if the B to C vehicle shows negative income, you should reduce the feeder share in the settings
20:59:42 <Eddi|zuHause> juzza1: i use tab, because my editor is weird with switching between languages

21:28:00 <LordAro> if anyone's still awake, is there another way to implement a source.list type thing, but without using awk (configure:100) ?
21:29:36 <Rubidium> use any other programming language that's readibly available?
21:29:58 <LordAro> that can easily be used inside a bash script :p
21:32:59 <fjb> You don't have bash everywhere. It is ok if you can do it in plain sh.
