11:17:13 *** Thedarkb-X40 has quit IRC

12:23:41 <andythenorth> o_O
12:30:41 <Eddi|zuHause> ok. i might be going properly insane now https://ibin.co/4vljD85ftLsi.png
12:32:44 <andythenorth> is that a pig farm?
12:32:48 <frosch123> i assume incomplete bridges are for the realism aspect
12:32:58 <Eddi|zuHause> no, that is iron ore :)
12:33:56 <frosch123> the plane icon in the toolbar looks disturbing
12:34:45 <Eddi|zuHause> because it's greyed out, or because your brain tricks you into seeing faces everywhere?
12:35:23 <frosch123> i want to say "yes", but it's only "latter"
12:37:22 <Pikka> Eddi|zuHause, pig iron?
12:55:27 * andythenorth watching deadliest catch
12:56:12 <Eddi|zuHause> i should probably get something to eat
13:08:24 *** Smedles_ has quit IRC
13:10:22 *** Smedles has joined #openttd
13:22:59 <Pikka> double oof
13:23:19 <Pikka> I had a bit of a fall climbing this afternoon, and I'm not sure I haven't sprained my ankle and/or knee...
13:23:50 *** Wolf01 has joined #openttd
13:26:56 <andythenorth> ouch
13:27:12 <andythenorth> I ignored an ankle injury 20 years ago
13:27:36 <andythenorth> and now the right side of my body is distorted and I have constant minor back pain
13:27:43 <andythenorth> just saying
13:28:24 <Pikka> thanks
13:29:49 <Eddi|zuHause> thanks, i'll get my 20 year old injuries checked out then
13:33:45 <andythenorth> I have been :P
13:35:36 <Wolf01> Same here
13:36:52 * andythenorth "mistakes were made"
13:37:09 <TrueBrain> we don't think any less of you because of it andythenorth, don't worry :)
13:37:49 <Eddi|zuHause> (i'm not quite sure if it's possible for TrueBrain to think less of anyone)
13:38:01 * andythenorth wonders about the inside of TrueBrain's brain
13:38:17 <TrueBrain> do you really andythenorth? do you? really?
13:40:58 <andythenorth> well very briefly
13:41:03 <TrueBrain> :D
13:41:06 <andythenorth> before I remembered not to
13:42:11 <andythenorth> bacon ciabbata is correct, yes/no?
13:42:17 * andythenorth lunch
13:43:58 <peter1138> Yes
13:44:17 <andythenorth> it has tomato
13:44:19 <andythenorth> and butter
13:44:31 <Eddi|zuHause> is there ever a question containing the word "bacon" that is "no"?
13:44:37 <peter1138> That's basically salad...
13:50:48 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause bacon and custard
13:50:52 <andythenorth> invalid
13:51:32 <Pikka> although the japanese...
13:52:43 <andythenorth> oh bacon and custard is valid apparently
13:52:46 * andythenorth checked
13:53:28 <Pikka> bacon and transmission fluid
14:05:58 *** sla_ro|master has quit IRC
14:11:37 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: see what i mean? :p

14:58:56 <andythenorth> automate!
14:59:39 <Eddi|zuHause> well, i could just have used one of the builtin bridges, but they don't really look good over such large heights

15:38:49 <andythenorth> well
15:39:10 <andythenorth> IRL there are bulk containers for coal, ore etc
15:39:29 <andythenorth> I was going to them covered, because IRL most are for cargo protection, dust suppression etc
15:39:38 <andythenorth> but I could show the cargo, it's trivial :P
15:40:36 <andythenorth> covered https://docplayer.net/docs-images/66/54579666/images/25-2.jpg
15:41:55 <andythenorth> open https://thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/images1/360/0615/29/3x-kit-built-russell-coal-container_360_c82077e0caf8e0d2df686f7f38f3321d.jpg

19:52:57 <Eddi|zuHause> sure
19:53:03 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
19:53:07 <Eddi|zuHause> just find another game to obsess about
19:53:11 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
19:53:41 <andythenorth> my win rate has plateaued
19:57:21 <andythenorth> I am above average, but not interestingly
19:57:21 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
19:57:30 <andythenorth> not getting better either

21:05:56 <andythenorth> can python import from a parent directory?
21:07:05 <frosch123> invoke it from the parent directory?
21:07:29 <frosch123> no idea whether ".." is allowed, but it always has issues with symbolic links
21:07:42 * andythenorth learning about sys.path
21:08:51 <andythenorth> I need to import ./src/constants to this file https://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/polar-fox/repository/entry/bin/render_cargo_graphics.py
21:08:55 <andythenorth> the advice so far is
21:08:58 <andythenorth> (1) don't do that
21:09:07 <andythenorth> (2) don't write things that need to do that
21:09:29 <frosch123> put a "main" script into the main folder
21:09:44 <andythenorth> that seems like a hack :)
21:09:48 <frosch123> then import "bin" and import "src"
21:09:53 <andythenorth> I'm only using /bin at all so it looks 'proper'
21:10:04 <andythenorth> there's no actual reason for it not being all in src
21:10:39 <frosch123> add another subfolder to "src" then
21:10:46 <andythenorth> ha ha it even has 2 copies of pixa currently due to this
21:10:48 <frosch123> and make "src" your main path
21:10:52 <andythenorth> thanks
21:11:07 <frosch123> don't call it src/bin though :p
21:11:44 <andythenorth> that would be weird :)
21:12:15 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
21:12:16 <frosch123> oh, i recently read about /bin, /usr and /home
21:12:43 <frosch123> just as silly is \ in dos
21:12:45 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
21:13:30 <andythenorth> what was the story?
21:13:57 <frosch123> unix started with a proper separation of operating system and user data in /bin and /usr
21:14:05 <frosch123> and put them on two disks
21:14:28 <frosch123> but at some point /bin was full, so they continued with /usr/bin
21:14:35 <glx> lol
21:14:37 <frosch123> later /home was added to separate user data
21:15:09 <andythenorth> oof :)
21:15:14 <andythenorth> sounds all too familiar
21:15:25 <andythenorth> 'mistakes were made'
21:15:35 <frosch123> similar as with \ in dos. while unix already had / for folders, ms said personal computers don't need that
21:15:46 <frosch123> they added / to separate commands from parameters
21:15:55 <frosch123> and then added directories in the next version
21:16:49 <andythenorth> 40 years later, we all repeat similar mistakes :P
21:16:50 <glx> yeah who needs folders anyway ;)
21:17:06 <andythenorth> I am stuck with a users and groups implementation that lacks groups
21:17:12 <andythenorth> in a product
21:17:24 <andythenorth> who needs groups?
21:17:26 <andythenorth> :P
21:17:41 <andythenorth> but we will rebuild him
21:23:06 <milek7> it seems that originally DOS used /
21:23:52 <milek7> from MS-DOS 2.0 README: "The user manual contains some significant errors. Most of these are due to last minute changes to achieve a greater degree of compatibility with IBM's implementation of MS-DOS (PC DOS). This includes the use of "\" instead of "/" as the path separator, and "/" instead of "-" as the switch character."
21:24:11 <frosch123> msdos used "/" to separate commands from arguments *without* space
21:24:33 <frosch123> so you wrote "DIR/P" instead of the more modern form "dir /p"
21:24:55 <nielsm> that still works in cmd.exe in windows 10 :)
21:25:47 <nielsm> but early msdos also had a config.sys option to change the command flag character away from /
21:26:01 <frosch123> afaik ibm dos is a licensed version of ms dos
21:26:06 <nielsm> it is
21:26:24 <andythenorth> oof, maybe I CAN AUTOMATE STUFF :)
21:27:03 <nielsm> microsoft bought the system from seattle computer products (I think it was called), then resold it to ibm
21:27:50 <nielsm> and a bunch of oddities in msdos trace to it wanting to be cp/m compatible
21:27:56 <frosch123> hmm, i though msdos is gates idea of immitating wang
21:28:08 <nielsm> (or at least to make porting software from cp/m to dos simpler)
21:28:27 <glx> cp/m was fun

23:19:26 <supermop_Home_> oops
23:19:51 <supermop_Home_> I accidentally built blaze ends with helm wind cars
23:20:49 <andythenorth> did it work? :)
23:21:47 <supermop_Home_> yep
23:22:01 <andythenorth> might be...underpowered
23:22:01 <supermop_Home_> it only goes 201kmh tho
23:22:19 <supermop_Home_> and makes diesel smoke
23:22:33 <supermop_Home_> which is what clued me in to the problem
23:22:35 <andythenorth> that's unexpected
23:22:47 <supermop_Home_> lots of power tho
23:25:34 * andythenorth going big on container wagons :P
23:25:43 <andythenorth> 2.1 in progress
23:26:53 <supermop_Home_> hmm the reverse is disappointing
23:27:28 <supermop_Home_> helm wind padded out with some hst cars for economy still limited to 201kmh
23:27:54 <andythenorth> and 1700hp
23:28:42 <supermop_Home_> I had two sets of helm wind cars and 4 hst cars
