00:00:44  <Rubidium> true, but creating a new window etc for enabling and configuring autorenew is more work than making it just 'work' correctly in the current situation
00:01:44  <Rubidium> the patch setting 'in-game' is the same as the one stored in the savegame (at least, with my patch applied)
00:04:10  <Rubidium> only case it now doesn't get set properly is when one changes player via the 'cheat' menu

00:05:24  <Rubidium> night
00:09:55  <Rubidium> ok, now the settings get reset on switching player too

00:17:17  <ln-> hmm, interesting channel this BahnTV
00:18:08  <Rubidium> Bjarni: what are we going to do with the patch? It is certain these two cases are cases where it *could* happen; there might be an issue with the validity of _local_player in AfterLoadGame; something that the part just before my new code in openttd.c uses

00:18:59  <Rubidium> anyway, I'm going to sleep now
00:19:55  <Eddi|zuHause> they show something at this hour?
00:20:28  <ln-> yeah
00:20:50  <ln-> over an hour-long video that was shot from a loco window
00:21:04  <ln-> started from somewhere and ended up at karlsruhe hbf.
00:21:41  <Eddi|zuHause> oh yeah, like "the most beautiful tracks of germany"
00:27:02  <Eddi|zuHause> could be less boring if they had some intresting music playing
00:27:57  <ln-> and now some more driving...
00:28:49  <Eddi|zuHause> it's quite funny when they drive through a tunnel, the screen is completely black for a while
00:29:11  <Eddi|zuHause> and they usually say "cut by x seconds" or something
00:29:28  <ln-> omg, werbung
00:30:14  <Eddi|zuHause> :)
00:31:31  <Bjarni> <Eddi|zuHause>	it's quite funny when they drive through a tunnel, the screen is completely black for a while <-- my cabview video recording of a tunnel is not black. The tracks are visible and now and then the boiler and funnel shows as well, not to mention all the signals and stuff
00:31:59  <Bjarni> <ln->	started from somewhere <-- are you sure it's not "elsewhere"? :P
00:32:24  <Eddi|zuHause> no, they might as well drive from karlsruhe to karlsruhe ;)
00:32:25  <ln-> in real life one can build signals in tunnels, yes
00:32:46  <Bjarni> I know

00:33:15  <Bjarni> they didn't have room for proper signals, so they placed 4 coloured lightbulbs on the wall :D
00:33:18  <Eddi|zuHause> well, in the case i saw it it was some diesel engine on a single-track route, they neither had boilers nor signals to see there
00:34:01  <Bjarni> that's just stupid
00:34:06  <Bjarni> a diesel without a boiler
00:34:08  <Bjarni> o_O
00:34:24  <Eddi|zuHause> well, it might have had a boiler, but it just could not be seen
00:34:32  <Bjarni> what's next? A locomotive without wheels?
00:34:57  <Bjarni> that would be TransRapid
00:35:05  <Eddi|zuHause> square wheels, so they don't roll backwards on the hills ;)
00:35:35  *** Progman [~progman@p57A1E4CC.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
00:36:02  <Bjarni> I once saw a cabview video and because it was a steering car, I instantly wondered "the engine noises are missing"
00:36:19  *** MVV [54321@91.145.211.139] has quit []
00:36:30  <Bjarni> I have driven on that particular line myself, but only with steam or diesel
00:36:55  <Bjarni> since it was clearly not a steam train, the diesel engine noise was missing
00:39:36  <Eddi|zuHause> i figure you don't have a lot of electric trains to drive
00:40:10  <Bjarni> actually that line got catenary and the steering car got an EMU in the other end
00:41:11  <Bjarni> but personally, I will likely never drive an electric train
00:41:31  <Bjarni> except for the 1:87 scale :P
00:41:45  <Eddi|zuHause> naturally ;)
00:42:28  <Eddi|zuHause> i'd like to see a working steam model of H0 scale once ;)
00:42:55  <Bjarni> hmm
00:43:10  <Bjarni> steam engines can always be made bigger, but they got a problem with small sizes
00:43:11  <glx> too small I think
00:43:53  <Bjarni> I say that the task to build such a small steam engine is so complex that it will be way too expensive
00:44:05  <Bjarni> but it could be possible to build
00:44:31  <Bjarni> would likely be really slow through
00:44:45  <Eddi|zuHause> hmm... Freiburg/Unstrut is not very far from here
00:44:50  *** MeusH [~MeusH@host-ip18-138.crowley.pl] has joined #openttd
00:44:55  <MeusH> heya
00:45:03  <MeusH> is MiHaMiX alive?
00:45:19  <Bjarni> do you mean before or after we killed him?
00:46:27  <Bjarni> Eddi|zuHause: I have seen working steam locomotives in scale... hmm 1:20 or something like that
00:46:28  <Belugas_Gone> was he alive before we've killed him?  Was he alive after we've killed him?   Bjarni, my friend, either way, it does not make much sens ^^
00:46:31  <Bjarni> pulling people
00:46:54  <Bjarni> Belugas_Gone: it was not intended to make more sense than the question ;)
00:47:36  <ln-> ok, silence everyone, i'm going to sleep.
00:47:46  <Belugas_Gone> you've succeeded Hahah!!
00:47:51  <Bjarni> http://www.qdb.us/74757 <-- what, people don't think it's funny that he thought he missed Christmas eve?
00:47:53  <Belugas_Gone> night ln-
00:47:57  <Bjarni> night ln-
00:48:05  <ln-> hmm, or perhaps it would be more idiomatic to say "going to bed"...
00:48:06  <ln-> gn
00:48:07  <MeusH> goodnight ln-
00:48:22  <Belugas_Gone> good going to sleep ln-
00:48:29  <Eddi|zuHause> hehe, they have a steam engine in scale 1:1,33 ;)
00:48:39  <Bjarni> who are they?
00:48:57  <Eddi|zuHause> or was it 3,33?
00:49:22  <Eddi|zuHause> somebody in leipzig
00:50:37  <Bjarni> http://hawkdawg.com/photos/rr_s/RSA-Red%20Devil.jpg <-- I know two guys, who are building this one. I think it's in 1:10 or something like that
00:51:21  <Bjarni> it will be so big that it needs a boiler test and approval like a real steam locomotive
00:51:44  <MeusH> heh
00:51:48  <MeusH> who'd care anyway?
00:51:56  <MeusH> too much beaurocracy...
00:52:10  <Bjarni> the future passengers

09:40:15  <Rubidium> Bjarni: I did some further thinking about your inconsistency problem; it could only happen when the _local_player is changed and the patch settings were not updated properly..
09:41:24  *** ufoun [~opera@85.207.18.146] has joined #openttd
09:41:36  <Bjarni> annoncement: I replaced the mac release file on sourceforge to solve the linking problem to libfontconfig
09:41:44  <Rubidium> So I made a patch that adds a SetLocalPlayer function that is used everywhere in the code where _local_player would be set except two locations where the _local_player is changed and then changed back again in the same function.
09:41:48  <Bjarni> now it should work for everybody (hopefully)
09:41:54  <Rubidium> http://rubidium.student.utwente.nl/openttd/autorenew_gui-core_inconsistency.diff
09:43:24  <Bjarni> that might do it

09:52:54  <Bjarni> Rubidium: you can go ahead and figure out if your diff solves the issue. I don't have the time :(
09:53:01  <Rubidium> Bjarni: you could have made a modified libfontconfig-configurator
09:53:49  <Rubidium> i.e. a script that returns the correct library flags
09:54:02  <Bjarni> yeah, but since it's not only part of Xcode, it could also conflict with with my SDKs (universal binary thing to use more than one), I would rather do it this way
09:55:00  <Bjarni> I noticed that Apple released a new Xcode, which I have yet to download. Any custom modifications risk getting overwritten when updating
09:55:43  <Rubidium> if you place the libfontconfig-configurator in $USER-DIR/my-own-stuff, it should not overwrite it
09:56:08  <Rubidium> anyway, brunch :)
09:56:31  <Bjarni> oddly enough the config accepts the --static flag, but it just fails to return any lib information
09:56:41  <Bjarni> even though the help says that it will

10:50:36  <Bjarni> and use the American way of hiding it
10:51:08  <Bjarni> next thing you know, they will start to say exmas instead of Christmas
10:51:21  <Bjarni> would that name Christ X?

10:57:57  <Bjarni> 2k6 means 2,6*1000
10:58:00  <Sacro> mikk36: x 10^3
10:58:06  <mikk36_> so 2k6 becomes two thousand six :)
10:58:39  <Bjarni> mikk36_: not really. Ever seen something like a resistor saying 4k9?
10:58:48  <mikk36_> nope
10:58:53  <mikk36_> not into electronics
10:58:56  <Bjarni> it's 4900 ?, not 4009 ?
10:58:59  <mikk36_> also
10:59:06  <mikk36_> it's spoken and free language
10:59:12  <Bjarni> the latter would make no sense as it could be ±5%
10:59:14  <mikk36_> not that scientific and formal
10:59:47  <mikk36_> although, 1 standard would be better, yeah
11:00:14  <Bjarni> the idea of a language is to use a standard known by both sender and receiver, so they agree on what it mean
11:01:17  <mikk36_> well, i prefer to agree with the wider area of people...
11:01:33  <mikk36_> then it's easier to understand
11:02:05  <mikk36_> lol
11:02:10  <mikk36_> at the same time...
11:02:21  <mikk36_> right now it's 2k, right ?
11:02:41  <mikk36_> shouldn't be the next century 21h ? :P
11:03:00  <mikk36_> h -> hundred
11:03:15  <Bjarni> no
11:03:22  <Bjarni> century means 100 years

11:36:10  <MeusH> btw have you seen the movie "Amadeus"?
11:36:22  <Sacro_> i think i have
11:36:32  <MeusH> that Mozart dude was pretty much weird :)
11:36:42  <Bjarni> well, I will
11:36:47  <Bjarni> I recorded it last night

11:39:14  <Bjarni> I just put a disc in the optical drive and it will not eject before the OS allows it to
11:39:27  <Bjarni> yet all apps claims that the tray is open

11:41:00  <MeusH> speaking of bad things on macs, a friend of mine has an iPOD that hangs up when playing certain mp3
11:41:05  <MeusH> there's no way to turn it off
11:41:05  <Bjarni> since it can take control of the drive so no other app will access it, it can lock it for all other apps and I think it did that, but failed to realise that it actually contains a disc
11:41:10  <MeusH> there's no "restart" button
11:41:20  <MeusH> there's no way to acces the baterry to remove it

11:42:49  <Bjarni> well, give it to iTunes and then let that app encode it for the iPOD
11:42:52  <Bjarni> that should work
11:42:55  <Bjarni> if not, contact Apple
11:43:07  <Bjarni> maybe contact Apple anyway
11:43:27  <Bjarni> it sounds like something is not like it should be
11:43:27  <Gonozal_VIII> no way to access the battery? :S
11:44:29  <Bjarni> I never figured out that part either, but you can get them to replace the battery for the price of the battery
11:44:57  <Bjarni> I mean, free installation of battery when you buy it
11:45:24  <Bjarni> it could be some sort of protection against the battery falling out or something
11:45:53  <Gonozal_VIII> so they have to open it with a large hammer and add a new case afterwards or what?
11:46:04  <Bjarni> I have no idea
11:46:33  <Bjarni> but with some powerbooks, they used special tools to open them
11:46:37  <Bjarni> could be something like that
11:46:58  <Bjarni> you never know what they think of and why. Could be some US law they are protecting themselves against
11:47:03  <Gonozal_VIII> i wouldn't like that

11:50:06  <Bjarni> in USA, some guy put up an electric fence and put it on a normal power outlet. Then he touched it and died. His widow got a fortune because the power company didn't specify that you were not allowed to do so without using an approved transformer. That's like suing a car company for dying in a carcrash while speeding. It's illegal because it's too dangerous, but the manufacturer didn't specify that you are not to use their product to
11:50:06  <Bjarni>  break the law.
11:50:46  <Gonozal_VIII> like the guy that went to the back of his camper to make some coffee while he was driving on the highway...
11:51:07  <Bjarni> ...
11:51:26  <Bjarni> he really let his camper drive on it's own???
11:51:33  <Gonozal_VIII> :-)
11:51:43  <Gonozal_VIII> had "cruise control" on^^
11:52:01  <Sacro_> right... off out

11:52:18  <Bjarni> so if something happened to the road, like a queue... interesting stuff would happen
11:52:26  <Bjarni> not to mention in curves
11:53:46  <Gonozal_VIII> he crashed into something and sued the manufactorer of the camper for not writing down that you shouldn't leave the drivers seat while driving
11:54:19  <Gonozal_VIII> he even got money for that...
11:54:23  <Bjarni> the US army are trying to get vehicles to drive without a driver, but that's totally different because it got a robot thing to keep an eye(sensor) on the road and act on the input
11:54:54  <Bjarni> useful for driving supplies in areas with snipers
11:55:04  <Bjarni> s/driving/moving
11:55:32  <Bjarni> the people can move out of the line of fire while it's somewhat safe to keep driving
11:56:22  <MeusH> Bjarni, I saw a TV programme about taht
11:56:33  <MeusH> but these were students, not soldiers who did that
11:56:46  <MeusH> their car drove across USA from west coast to east coast
11:56:51  <MeusH> without driver
11:56:51  <Rubidium> that is probably the DARPA challenge :)
11:56:55  <Bjarni> maybe more than one group works on this

12:00:17  <Gonozal_VIII> i wouldn't want to create something like that in the usa... much to high risk for something like "i was so shocked when i saw that thing driving without a driver that i fell and broke my leg, give me 10 million dollars..."

12:01:54  <Gonozal_VIII> ^^
12:02:05  <Bjarni> I don't think she would pass the test to be able to see everything needed to be allowed to drive

12:28:05  <Bjarni> "now if I put you just over your left knee with this hammer, I will get a lake in the middle of the map"
12:28:06  <mikk36_> why that complicated
12:28:18  <mikk36_> easier way would be to let type people in some word
12:28:28  <mikk36_> and the record the tapping times in thousands of second
12:28:43  <Bjarni> because hitting you is more fun
12:28:50  <Gonozal_VIII> :-)
12:32:50  <Bjarni> just wondering: why would anybody be against the police catching people, who breaks the law?
12:33:14  <Gonozal_VIII> if it's a very stupid law?
12:34:11  <Bjarni> say the police wants to set up a camera next to a school because too many cars are speeding when passing it, why would they not be allowed to do that?
12:34:24  <Bjarni> they aren't in Denmark and I never understood why
12:34:46  <Gonozal_VIII> i don't know for sure but i think they are here
12:35:45  <Bjarni> Denmark should be the only country in EU that got a total ban for police cameras in traffic. They are only allowed to be used if there is a police officer controlling it and not by remote control
12:36:14  <Gonozal_VIII> ok, that's stupid
12:37:30  <Gonozal_VIII> radar speeding camera things should be everywhere where it's dangerous
12:37:49  <Bjarni> so if there is a road with a speed limit of say 50 km/h and a lot of cars drive say 70 or 80, so schoolchildren do not dare to cross it, they aren't allowed to do anything about it unless they assign somebody to keep an eye on the road and then they can only do anything while he is present
12:38:31  <mikk36_> i still let people across the road.. even when i drive at 70
12:39:24  <Gonozal_VIII> you have to if there is a zebra crossing..
12:39:25  <Bjarni> then you are an unusual driver
12:39:54  <mikk36_> driving at 70 and letting people cross the road is not the same as driving at 50 and ignorantly not letting people across
12:40:01  <Bjarni> that's another issue. Most cars fail to stop there
12:40:34  <Gonozal_VIII> i always stop there if somebody wants to cross and it's safe for me to stop
12:40:42  <mikk36_> exactly
12:40:59  <mikk36_> mainly the only thing i break is the speed limit
12:41:03  <mikk36_> i try to obey other laws
12:42:01  <Bjarni> I once failed to stop in driving school. Some kid wanted to cross, but were hiding behind a parked car. I didn't see him before I was like 5 meters away... too close to stop because the car behind me didn't kept a distance, so he would hit me if I stopped
12:42:20  <mikk36_> yeah
12:42:21  <mikk36_> well
12:42:29  <Bjarni> my driving instructor said that it was ok not to stop in that case, but the kid out there got a problem due to the illegally parted car
12:42:36  <mikk36_> these kind of happenings should be forgiven by both police and driving instructor
12:42:49  <mikk36_> yeah
12:42:51  <Gonozal_VIII> i once had a car in front of me that stopped at a zebra crossing.. but not from a safe distance.. slammed in the brakes and i had to do the same... i had enough distance but the car behind me almost hit me
12:43:11  <mikk36_> :)
12:43:18  <mikk36_> happened to me few times
12:43:40  <mikk36_> also.. u have to know ur brakes.. because the one behind u might have bad ones :)
12:43:53  <mikk36_> to know ur brakes to not break too quickly
12:44:20  <Gonozal_VIII> had to, otherwise i would have hit the car in front of me
12:44:53  <mikk36_> i usually break very hard at first, then release a bit (so the one behind me would notice me quicker but after that give him some room to break)
12:45:27  <Bjarni> I once stopped just before I entered a T-cross so I didn't block the road to the right (with cars waiting to get out) and I would not have been able to leave it because in front of me cars were waiting at a red light. The car behind me didn't noticed that I stopped so far from the car in front of me, hit the brakes really quickly in the last sec and used the horn
12:45:30  <mikk36_> so far it's worked nicely in jams
12:47:01  <Bjarni> why would anybody use the horn in that case?
12:47:02  <Gonozal_VIII> i prefer to go by train anyways.. or bus/tram inside the city
12:47:56  <Gonozal_VIII> some way to release the shock?
12:48:15  <Bjarni> we don't have tramlines anymore. In the 60s, the politicians said that everybody would be able to get cars in the future, so they closed them and opened bus lines for the kids
12:48:24  <Bjarni> didn't work out the way they expected
12:48:58  <Gonozal_VIII> wouldn't want to go through a big city by car at rush hour..
12:48:59  <Bjarni> and now traffic is impossible to get through because the roads can't handle that many cars
12:49:47  <Gonozal_VIII> in a tram, even if it's also stuck in traffic, you can always relax
12:50:20  <Bjarni> a tram uses way less space on the road for each person it transport
12:51:09  <Bjarni> so if everybody used the trams, people would not get jammed that often
12:51:13  <Gonozal_VIII> especially if there is only one guy in most cars

12:51:33  <mikk36_> 2 in the morning.. 1 during the day here
12:52:07  <Bjarni> I tend to drive alone because nobody ever wants to go in the same direction as me
12:52:10  <Bjarni> :(
12:52:26  <Bjarni> if I'm going north, then everybody else appears to go south and so on
12:52:51  <mikk36_> and why are u sad about it ?
12:52:55  <Gonozal_VIII> at least you won't get stuck in traffic then
12:53:06  <mikk36_> at least u got a nice reason to drive alone :)
12:53:59  <Bjarni> I do get stuck in traffic... because the roads are full of people with different origins then me and I don't know any of them, so we can't share any cars
12:54:56  <Bjarni> well, both my environmental and community consciousness tells me not to be so selfish and drive alone
12:54:59  * mikk36_ hasn't owned monthly public transportation ticket for 4 months already :P
12:55:10  <Bjarni> but public transportation sucks where I'm going
12:55:18  <Bjarni> 25 minutes by car
12:55:24  <mikk36_> lucky for u
12:55:40  <mikk36_> if i'm lucky, i get to my moms work with 25 minutes
12:55:46  <mikk36_> when the roads are emoty
12:55:48  <mikk36_> empty
12:55:49  <Bjarni> more than an hour with public transportation and only once every 20th minute
12:56:03  <mikk36_> but when there's traffic... usually 40-50 minutes
12:56:07  <mikk36_> 16km to drive
12:56:57  <Gonozal_VIII> i'm in a small town (900 people), about 10 busses per day here..
12:58:04  <Bjarni> research shows that to get enough people to use public transportation, there have to be one connection every 20th minute or the risk of long waiting time will be so long that people start to figure out alternative means of transportation
12:58:46  <Bjarni> the local railroads are all planning to have a train every 20th minute based on this. The increased level of passengers will pay for the extra trains
12:59:55  <Bjarni> one every 30th minute will make people look at schedules. One every 20th minute will make people just show up and that means that you will also get the people, who will for some reason or another not look at schedules
12:59:55  <Gonozal_VIII> wouldn't here... a train every hour with 3 cars, most of the time almost empty
13:00:37  <Bjarni> that's more rarely than one every 20th minute, so people find other means of transportation
13:00:58  <Bjarni> then again, maybe you just are too few people to allow proper service nomatter how often they drive

13:03:18  <mikk36_> pretty 'ouch' location then
13:03:57  <Gonozal_VIII> that's why i have to go by car for shopping and such

13:04:38  <mikk36_> ottd*
13:04:39  <Azio> hey chaps :> is "transfer cargo" completely removed from 0.4.8 and other versions? I've had it working, if anybody knows a nightly that supports it at least (even if it is slightly broken) please let me know, thanks :D
13:05:12  <Gonozal_VIII> transfer is not there?
13:06:19  <Gonozal_VIII> aaaand what console window?
13:06:42  <mikk36_> the one i start it from
13:06:47  <mikk36_> with ./openttd
13:06:59  <Gonozal_VIII> <-- windows
13:07:07  <mikk36_> brr
13:08:29  <Gonozal_VIII> i start it through console to with a .bat on the desktop because then it opens at the same size that it had when i closed it...
13:08:49  <Azio> Gonozal_VIII: cargo transfer :D
13:08:51  <mikk36_> erm
13:09:01  <mikk36_> Gonozal_VIII, it does that with usual shortcut too
13:09:05  <Gonozal_VIII> i know what transfer... but isn't that in every version?
13:09:09  <mikk36_> it saves the width and height in the config
13:09:11  <Azio> nope i dont think so
13:09:11  <Gonozal_VIII> no it doesn't
13:09:17  <Azio> transfer doesnt seem to work for me at all now
13:09:28  <mikk36_> it does, Gonozal_VIII :P
13:09:28  <Azio> 0.4.7 seemed to work iirc, but 0.4.8 not any functionality at all
13:09:33  <Gonozal_VIII> not under winxp
13:09:37  <Azio> i do know the functionality has been "troublesome at best"
13:09:38  <Gonozal_VIII> something broken...
13:09:39  <mikk36_> under winxp :P
13:09:52  <Gonozal_VIII> always windowed with desktop link
13:10:11  <Gonozal_VIII> 0.5.0?
13:10:20  <mikk36_> haven't touched it
13:10:23  <mikk36_> in win
13:10:35  <Gonozal_VIII> that was to azio...
13:10:38  <mikk36_> k
13:10:40  <Azio> heh
13:10:41  <Azio> ahh
13:10:42  <Gonozal_VIII> windowed thing is with miniin
13:10:52  <Azio> 0.4.8
13:11:03  <Azio> 0.4.7 had some issues but cargo transfer worked, im sure of it
13:11:15  <Azio> ive had people say "no it didnt actually" but meh, i know im not imagining this
13:11:16  <Azio> heh
13:11:42  <Azio> i remember actually seeing myself get the money for transfers but now it calculates the money and shows me, but its not actually deposited,
13:12:02  <Azio> dont spose anybody at all has a nightly of it that might work?
13:12:09  <Gonozal_VIII> had a version where cargo transfer worked but only where it wasn't realy needed... so everywhere but at stations that accept the transferred goods
13:12:21  <mikk36_> Azio, u will get the money later
13:12:28  <Azio> heh mikk36, really?
13:12:31  <mikk36_> when u take stuff to it's final destination
13:12:38  <Azio> ahhhh really?
13:12:40  <Azio> i didnt notice this
13:12:43  <mikk36_> :)
13:12:46  <Azio> heh
13:12:53  <Azio> mikk36 im not sure if i was getting it at all tbh
13:13:08  <mikk36_> at least it should be that way
13:13:13  <Azio> heh cause i specifically build a point to point
13:13:18  <Azio> and then moved coal in from 3 locations to check
13:13:21  <Azio> no luck so far
13:13:29  <Gonozal_VIII> otherwise you could generate money by transferring stuff from one place to the other and back all the time^^
13:13:39  <Azio> yeah
13:13:41  <Azio> sure
13:13:56  <Azio> so im unloading
13:14:07  <Azio> isnt working well at all :< oh well
13:14:39  <Azio> maybe i can find peace in an enlarged menu gui
13:14:45  <Azio> lol
13:14:47  <Gonozal_VIII> should work, if the cargo still has it's original source stored (from bla)
13:14:53  <Azio> mmm Gonozal_VIII
13:14:59  <Azio> xx tones from yy station
13:15:07  <Azio> thats what ithought
13:15:13  <Azio> was depressing to see 14k a trip gothrough
13:15:18  <Azio> and my last carriers earning 2k ;<
13:15:22  <Azio> on short round trips
13:15:32  <Azio> and no monies reaching bank
13:15:36  <Azio> it must be broke ;D
13:15:37  <Gonozal_VIII> short trips never generated that much money
13:15:54  <Azio> yeah but mikk36 said i should be getting the "transfer money" at the end
13:16:17  <Azio> so instead of 2k i should be seeing like 20
13:16:18  <Azio> heh
13:16:38  <Azio> if that makes any sense at all ;\
13:17:35  <Azio> heh oh well
13:17:37  <Gonozal_VIII> i think the transfer money is the money you would get if that would be the end of transport line... but the time counts on and you get much less money for longer transportation time
13:17:39  <Azio> today i live without transfers :D
13:17:50  <Azio> oh, really
13:17:54  <Azio> maybe dude
13:18:24  <Azio> i still cant get a straight answer from anyone on whether its compiled into 0.4.8 / 0.4.7/ latest betas or nightlies or older nightlies
13:18:24  <Azio> heh
13:18:35  <Azio> maybe ive just got it into my head that this is the problem
13:18:52  <Gonozal_VIII> try 0.5.0
13:19:01  <Azio> heh
13:19:10  <Azio> shucks ill have to reocmpile it on the production server i run
13:19:11  <Azio> heh
13:19:17  * Azio grmbles
13:19:18  <Azio> heh
13:19:36  <Azio> dont suppose theres a stable 0.5.0? :P
13:19:48  <Gonozal_VIII> rc1...
13:20:21  <Azio> heh okies
13:20:22  <Azio> ill give it a try
13:20:31  <Azio> thanks for your help dude
13:20:41  <Gonozal_VIII> np
13:20:43  <Azio> merry christmas
13:21:07  <Gonozal_VIII> thanks, you to

13:21:20  <Gonozal_VIII> hmm
13:23:16  <Gonozal_VIII> back to the window thing... i know that it stores the window size and should open it at the last used size.. but it doesn't when launched by a desktop link
13:24:47  <Gonozal_VIII> it does, when i launch it with a .bat with the lines: cd gamedirbla OpenTTD.exe in it

14:50:17  <MeusH> how about making just one change: define DAY_TICKS = what was before / _patches_daylength
14:50:33  <MeusH> instead of adding /_patches_daylength to all DAY_TICKS occurencies?
14:50:43  <Wolf01> because i need to tune it ingame
14:51:06  <MeusH> ok
14:51:18  <MeusH> GetDayTicks()?
14:52:23  <MeusH> what do you actually need?
14:52:37  <Wolf01> have you ever seen the miniIN?
14:52:47  <MeusH> yes
14:52:54  <MeusH> but not recent versions
14:53:19  <Wolf01> ok, i'm the developer of the daylength patch but to mantain better it i need to optimize it a little
14:53:49  <MeusH> by optimizing you mean both speeding up the code and cleaning it up visually?
14:53:50  <Wolf01> (sacro doesn't count as developer of daylength, because he wrote a single line)
14:53:54  <Wolf01> yes
14:54:33  <MeusH> fast code is usually mutually exclusive with nice looking code :D
14:55:09  <Wolf01> what i need is to avoid to patch 1000 files with only DAT_TICKS -> DAY_TICKS/_patches_daylength
14:56:09  <MeusH> if there is no way to tweak a constant (I assume DAY_TICKS is a defined constant), you can leave that changes or use a function like GetDayTicks, which will look nicer, but it will of course take a bit more time

15:18:03  <Eddi|zuHause2> no, not the transfer money, the money for the overall trip
15:18:06  <Bjarni> either you made a typo or you did something inside a typedef

15:18:29  <Wolf01> nothing of these

15:19:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> no, actually
15:19:36  <Bjarni> then that's the problem. You are low on water
15:19:38  <Wolf01> mmm maybe i found
15:19:38  <Rubidium> Wolf01: then I do not know what caused it
15:20:09  <Eddi|zuHause2> actually, drinking alcohol drains you of water
15:20:28  <Bjarni> I didn't ask what you were drinking
15:20:33  <Wolf01> i don't know how it happened, but there is a "f" on the first char of the source, maybe when i pressed ctrl+f
15:20:39  <Bjarni> you just assumed alcohol, but I didn't say that
15:21:08  <Bjarni> Wolf01: that could cause some problems ;)
15:22:02  <Rubidium> so after all, he has changed something before line 20 of trolly.c :)
15:22:38  <Bjarni> looks like it
15:23:09  <Eddi|zuHause2> Bjarni: the joy of language, people may speak the same thing, but it can have completely different meanings
15:23:36  <Wolf01> mmm i think is changed something in the date functions, the daylength has no effect
15:25:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> hm, how can i prevent the kernel from turning off DMA each time the hd mentions the slightest kind of error
15:26:29  <Bjarni> replace the HD if it starts to talk about hardware errors
15:26:41  <Eddi|zuHause2> i am rescuing the HD ;)
15:27:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> only on each read error, it disables DMA, it seems
15:27:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> so it copies the good sectors at 1/10th speed
15:28:33  <Bjarni> well... you are not going anywhere
15:28:54  <Bjarni> you can wait a few extra hours for it to complete or you can spend 2 days speeding it up

15:29:15  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, it's not the problem that it takes ages to copy, but it shuts down DMA on both drives on the IDE
15:29:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> so each other action i might do in the meantime takes ages, too
15:29:47  <Bjarni> don't connect them to the same bus
15:29:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> the other drive contains my root partition
15:30:01  <Bjarni> that would seriously slow down the optical drive though
15:30:07  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, i am kinda out of busses to connect to
15:30:31  <Bjarni> use your old computer to do this
15:30:53  <Bjarni> do I have to tell you everything?
15:31:00  <Eddi|zuHause2> the next older computer cannot understand drives > 32GB
15:31:30  <Bjarni> you are making this complicated :P
15:31:43  <Eddi|zuHause2> that is my speciality ;)
15:32:23  <Bjarni> but... you only got one bus?
15:32:37  <Eddi|zuHause2> no, i have a second bus, but it is already full
15:32:54  <Eddi|zuHause2> you know, i need a disk to copy this stuff to, too ;)
15:33:36  <Bjarni> take the defective HD from bus 1 and place it on bus 2. The HD you removed from bus 2 to make room can then be connected to bus 1
15:33:59  <Bjarni> clever, isn't it?
15:36:44  <Bjarni> hmm, no reply
15:37:01  <Bjarni> maybe he will not admit to being outsmarted :P

16:02:17  <Bjarni> Eddi|zuHause2: turn on the TV. If there is a movie, it's a boring movie
16:02:38  <Bjarni> Movies in German, that was not German when being recorderd = boring and lame
16:03:02  <MeusH> we have a proverb "Czech movie"
16:03:19  <MeusH> about something noone can understand; very lame, stupid and/or complicated movie
16:03:44  <Bjarni> hehe
16:03:53  <MeusH> and not only movie
16:03:57  <MeusH> book, event, everything
16:03:58  <MeusH> Czechs also have a proverb like this: "Spanish village"
16:04:09  <Bjarni> reminds me of when I saw the lord of the rings the first time. It was that cartoon thing
16:04:19  <Bjarni> I saw all of it, but never understood any of it
16:04:30  <MeusH> :)
16:04:58  <Bjarni> oddly drawn, odd talk and skipping a lot from the book
16:05:20  <Bjarni> and ended when they entered Moria (thinking back, I presume that it was Moria)
16:06:11  <Bjarni> later I learned that everybody, who read the books flamed this movie big time for being odd and not telling the story

17:09:23  <MVV> yesterday i've tried to play with my friend by internet but after connection he was on server only 5-7 seconds and disconnected; the reason is my instability of my dial-up or it's possible to change some options to make the game more stable from disconnections?
17:10:04  <Wolf01> net_frame_freq = xxx
17:10:04  <Wolf01> max_join_time = yyy
17:11:10  <Wolf01> max_join_time default is 500 if i'm not wrong
17:11:40  <MVV> and how does it work? (net_frame_freq) what does it mean?
17:12:23  <Wolf01> if you set high, you give more time to join the game (best for slow connections)
17:13:10  <Wolf01> net_frame_freq is the sync packet i think
17:13:23  <Wolf01> or how many packets are sent in one second
17:13:35  <Wolf01> or something else
17:14:53  <MVV> i'll better read README :)
17:16:14  <Wolf01> i use them only if i really need it, or when the dedicated server advert me to do it
17:18:07  <MVV> oh! one more question: option <LAN/inet//inet(adv)> in starting a server determines only visibility?

17:29:32  <Wolf01> meush if you have some infos about the ttdpatch eyecandy you should tell it to frostregen
17:29:47  <hylje> would someone arse to implement a re-sync
17:29:57  <MVV> disconnection in 0.5.0 occures bye disonchronization or bacaese of some another reason?
17:30:00  <hylje> ie. not throw desynced player off the server, just force reload
17:31:13  <MeusH> allright
17:32:05  <MVV> as I can remember in 0.4.0 when I played in LAN disconnections didn't occure but only appeared string blinking in the corner ("desync..." or something else)
17:33:00  <Wolf01> another way to avoid desyncs is to avoid moving around the map continuously
17:33:58  <hylje> i havent found moving around desyncing
17:34:19  <hylje> i rarely stay in the same spot for more than a few seconds

19:49:45  <Darkvater> well I told him something along the lines of don't even expect a reply to an email like this and go read
19:50:02  <MVV> I and my friend tried to change language on russian but instead of letters we see only '?'

19:53:22  <Rubidium> ah, somewhere obscure, not really quickly findable though
19:54:45  <peter1138> perhaps someone can put http://fuzzle.org/o/russianw.grf somewhere sensible, and provide a link to it, and instructions on putting it in [newgrf-static]
19:54:46  <Bjarni> we need to improve documentation
19:54:59  <peter1138> after the bit about ttf fonts being prefered, heh
19:55:00  <Bjarni> and I don't mean using MYOB to do it like we once did :P
19:56:48  <Bjarni> I think the solution would be to increase the sprite limit and then always make the game able to access the Russian sprites
19:56:55  <Bjarni> until we do so, people will complain

20:04:36  <peter1138> the other is to split the palette map off from the sprite id
20:05:20  <Darkvater> so how would that look? struct sprite {int32 id, byte palette} ?
20:05:37  <peter1138> byte palette? hehe
20:05:47  <peter1138> i left a SpriteID as 32 bit
20:06:09  <peter1138> and changed PalSpriteID to { SpriteID id, SpriteID palette }
20:06:13  <Darkvater> well byte would also include recolour, transparency, whatever
20:06:20  <peter1138> (cos palettes are sprites)
20:07:34  <peter1138> anyway, it's "a bit" large :/
20:07:42  <peter1138> and i had to poolise the spritecache
20:07:55  <peter1138> (which was pretty easy)
20:08:41  <Darkvater> hehe, I can imagine, can't keep a few billion static sprite cache
20:08:52  <peter1138> :)

20:43:27  <MVV> heh ... this server OFTC is interesting for such thing that with reconnect it scans a couple of my ports :)
20:43:30  <MeusH> ahh seems I do get it :)
20:43:42  <hylje> MVV: larger networks tend to do that
20:45:25  <Bjarni> yeah
20:45:43  <Bjarni> we are not allowed to do portscans, but if we are big enough, we can do it anyway
20:46:23  <Bjarni> just like if you earn money, you pay tax and if you earn a lot of money, you pay a lot and if you make a fortune, you pay nothing
20:47:18  <MVV> also it's funny that i reconnect to this server in several times faster than to the server which is situated in 150 km from me
20:48:23  <Bjarni> I once connected faster to a server in Stockholm than a server 20 km away from me (and I'm not in Sweden)
20:48:26  <MVV> irc.oftc.net i suppose it's somewhere in USA ?
20:48:41  <MVV> i am in Ukraine :)
20:48:41  <Rubidium> it's all around the world
20:48:50  <hylje> it depends on the pipe used
20:49:22  <Rubidium> the wonders of round-robin dns
20:49:33  <MeusH> netstat reveals nice things... what's the equivalent command for linux
20:49:34  <MeusH> ?
20:49:40  <MeusH> sorry
20:49:40  <Rubidium> dig
20:49:41  <MeusH> tracert
20:49:47  <Rubidium> traceroute
20:50:09  <hylje> netstat is available for linux
20:50:17  <ln-> Bjarni: fixing -x'ed chmod is obviously a matter of writing a small C program that calls chmod(2).
20:50:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> i think i'm always redirected to reticulum.oftc.net when i connect to irc.oftc.net
20:50:45  <MVV> oh i see there are 7 IP's for irc.oftc.net
20:50:52  <Rubidium> then your ISP has a broken DNS server
20:50:53  <Bjarni> ln-: well, it would be way easier to to write that line in the first place ;)
20:51:04  <Eddi|zuHause2> "Eddi|zuHause2 ist auf dem Server reticulum.oftc.net (Berlin, Germany)."
20:51:21  <Eddi|zuHause2> "MVV ist auf dem Server osmosis.oftc.net (Grapevine, TX, USA)."
20:51:51  <Eddi|zuHause2> "Bjarni ist auf dem Server neutron.oftc.net (Vienna, Austria)."
20:52:41  <MVV> Eddi|zuHause2 how did you get this info?
20:52:50  <Bjarni> whois
20:53:16  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah
20:53:55  <Bjarni> so when I send something, it goes from me to Vienna, then Berlin and then to Eddi|zuHause2, who is in Germany, right?
20:54:07  <MVV> oh excatly :) all is simplier than i thought ...
20:54:26  <Bjarni> it's less logical to go through Texas to reach MVV, who is east of us, not west of us
20:54:56  <MVV> so i've been connected to usa server? osmosis.oftc.net (Grapevine, TX, USA)
20:55:23  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, obviously ;)
20:55:34  <MVV> it's strange why not austria for example?
20:56:03  <Rubidium> because osmosis.oftc.net was the first in the DNS list when you queried irc.oftc.net
20:56:58  <MVV> maybe i realy live in usa but all the people surrounding me lie me? :)
20:57:26  <Bjarni> speaking of bandwidth, I was once at uni and should download from tocows and I should find a mirror. I find one like 50 meters away from the unix server I was connected to. Speed was nice :D
20:58:06  <Rubidium> Bjarni: you aren't running your own mirror of it?
20:58:19  <MVV> so it may have a sense to ping all the seven IP's and connect directly to the fastest ?
20:58:28  <Biff> at school we are 2 hops from NIX =)
20:58:35  <Biff> (norwegian internet exchange)
20:59:13  <Rubidium> MVV: not really, as the round-robin is used to spread the load over all the IRC servers of OFTC
20:59:13  <Bjarni> Rubidium: not the university, but some company close to uni got a mirror
20:59:35  <Bjarni> since that company also happens to be ISP for uni, the bandwidth is rather good

21:09:34  <FlashFF> it seems it not to do with tresetting the comp
21:09:40  <[gen2]niki> because.. then the server will be spammed with broken newb companys
21:09:49  <FlashFF> it wont let me create a new company if more than 8 clients are connected

21:10:39  <Rubidium> hmm, no new companies with 8+ connected clients..
21:11:01  <Eddi|zuHause2> then you should go to bugs.openttd.org, and make a proper feature request, with a detailed explanation on how you want it to work

21:21:31  <hylje> :D
21:21:37  <[gen2]niki> its only a question of time until they can be cracked and played
21:22:05  <[gen2]niki> (i dont copy music videos or games, prefer having them legal btw)
21:22:26  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, i'd have said the same thing in your position :p
21:22:41  <HMage> [gen2]niki: there's more than just data that DD can get. For example, discs have timing information that some Cd/DVD protection mechanisms use.
21:22:46  <guru3> aren't many games for linux :<
21:23:02  <hylje> you got ottd
21:23:08  <guru3> indeed i do
21:23:08  <hylje> and wc3 is really playable on wine
21:23:10  <hylje> what do you need
21:23:10  <[gen2]niki> there are quite many
21:23:15  <Eddi|zuHause2> what's wrong with supertux and frozen-bubble?
21:23:17  <[gen2]niki> but not too many professional games of course
21:23:21  <guru3> dun like wc3
21:23:41  <guru3> let me rephrase, aren't many games to buy for linux
21:24:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> linux and buy do not mix very well
21:24:10  <Athorium> yuhuuu I finished 446 'Dodotis' :D
21:24:14  <guru3> got that right eddi
21:24:26  <[gen2]niki> why?
21:24:29  <guru3> only thing you buy for linux is hardware
21:24:38  <guru3> and you can't download that to begin with
21:24:48  <hylje> download more ram
21:24:49  <[gen2]niki> just because there are no games on linux because they wont bring in portation costs for the companys?
21:24:51  <hylje> :-)
21:24:57  <[gen2]niki> that doesnt mean anything has to be free.
21:25:03  <[gen2]niki> the wierd ideology o.o
21:25:15  <[gen2]niki> and apart from reality ;p
21:25:20  <MVV> i want to live as long life as i need to see the install of OTTD on DVD :)
21:25:28  <hylje> [gen2]niki: mostly its that the game companies are too lazy to make clean binaries
21:25:44  <hylje> that work on all distros
21:25:45  <guru3> curse you lazy game companies
21:25:47  <[gen2]niki> yep
21:25:52  <[gen2]niki> thats why i like doom and unreal
21:26:01  <[gen2]niki> smart companys.. work that portation is no hard job
21:26:06  <guru3> vive id & atari
21:26:09  <hylje> its not that hard to make a statically linked self-contained directory
21:26:14  <hylje> that is thrown to /opt/
21:26:18  <[gen2]niki> but that throws a bad light on blizzard o.o
21:26:37  <[gen2]niki> i dont know how many run w3 with wine and love a clean linux binary
21:26:42  <[gen2]niki> for better speed
21:26:48  <[gen2]niki> probaply thousands.
21:26:49  <hylje> blizzard does most likely have all their games compiling for a generic linux target
21:26:52  <[gen2]niki> same with wow
21:27:02  <[gen2]niki> why dont they publish it then?
21:27:14  <hylje> and a linux native wow is there, unless they forgot to maintain it
21:27:16  <hylje> dunno.
21:27:29  <[gen2]niki> native linux?
21:27:32  <hylje> ive heard some rumours that apple has something with it
21:27:41  <[gen2]niki> i can imagine that the dedicated servers of it are linux
21:27:49  <[gen2]niki> hmm?
21:27:50  <Naksu> well
21:27:59  <[gen2]niki> i mean its a joke in general
21:28:00  <Naksu> the reason why there are no games for linux is quite simple
21:28:02  <guru3> funny now that you mention it, there's dedicated steam servers too
21:28:08  <[gen2]niki> yeah
21:28:12  <Naksu> you cant make a profit even if you take someone else's work and port it
21:28:24  <hylje> how so
21:28:29  <Naksu> loki
21:28:50  <[gen2]niki> only lokis native ports were good
21:28:51  <guru3> loki isn't really porting
21:28:56  <hylje> ive heard loki had some other issues that contributed to its demise
21:28:56  <[gen2]niki> the deus ex port sucked like hell
21:28:59  <[gen2]niki> -.-
21:29:11  <guru3> loki does more installers than anything imo
21:29:18  <Naksu> [gen2]niki: it was never finished
21:29:36  <Eddi|zuHause2> hm... out of 30GB it copied, ~1.5MB are failed

21:30:28  <HMage> guru3: you're wrong. They were porting games. keyword is 'were', since they're out of business now (got no profits).
21:30:43  <guru3> ah well
21:30:45  <[gen2]niki> i think
21:30:49  <guru3> sucks for them
21:30:53  <guru3> and for ppl that like linux
21:30:53  <[gen2]niki> many companys too extensively stick to directx
21:31:09  <guru3> curse you you directx bastards
21:31:13  <[gen2]niki> i think a german adventure gets a port just because it was easy to port and 200 linux fans preordered it
21:31:22  *** Gonozal_VIII [~Gono@N751P018.adsl.highway.telekom.at] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
21:31:22  <[gen2]niki> that was the dependency of the company to port it
21:31:39  <[gen2]niki> its a lie that it would be too expensive to port. this shows the exact opposite
21:32:00  <HMage> [gen2]niki: sticking to directx is mainly because MSDN lacks clarity on OpenGL.
21:32:00  <[gen2]niki> the game is a lucas arts style adventure in egyptian settings.. got a gamestar game of the year award or something
21:32:35  <HMage> [gen2]niki: not many dev people will go out and seeks the other source for OpenGL docs, they prefer more convinient MSDN for docs.
21:32:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, 200 guaranteed preorders at ~40EUR means you can pay a programmer full time to port it
21:32:42  <HMage> go out and seek*
21:33:02  <[gen2]niki> hey
21:33:05  <HMage> Eddi|zuHause2: did you take into account the costs of running a business?
21:33:11  <[gen2]niki> halflife sold.. two million times? no idea?
21:33:11  *** Gonozal_VIII [~Gono@N850P021.adsl.highway.telekom.at] has joined #openttd
21:33:26  <[gen2]niki> how many people have linux and use cedega or switch to windows to play sometimes?
21:33:35  <[gen2]niki> and would like a linux steam? o.o
21:34:52  <[gen2]niki> and HMage i know plenty games with opengl support without native linux port.
21:34:56  <Rubidium> FlashFF: you found a nice bug :)
21:35:00  <guru3> i wouldn't mind a linux steam/hl2 sort of thing
21:36:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> HMage: well, the argument was not really meant to be complete... but it's a pretty good argument if a) these 200 would rather not buy the game instead of ordering a windows copy, or b) the number is insignificant against the expected number of windows sales
21:36:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> (where b) would have to finance the other running costs of the company)
21:37:06  <hylje> they could get nice publicity from a fully featured linux port
21:37:12  <hylje> thus more sales
21:37:23  <[gen2]niki> yeah
21:37:28  <[gen2]niki> because all geeks think:
21:37:29  <hylje> get slashdotted? easily thousands of sales
21:37:33  <[gen2]niki> what a cool company, lets support it
21:37:41  <hylje> especially if the game looks promising
21:37:46  <[gen2]niki> they probaply got slashdotted for that action
21:37:59  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, you just have to present it to the marketing/sales people nicely, so they would allow it
21:38:03  <[gen2]niki> the game got awards of high-reputation gaming magazines ;p
21:40:26  <[gen2]niki> one question.
21:40:42  <[gen2]niki> if a plane has 90% in out of order rating
21:40:56  <[gen2]niki> why do all planes have burning engines or something within a flight?
21:40:57  <[gen2]niki> -.-
21:41:24  <[gen2]niki> just because the trip is long no every plane from london to new york has burning engines
21:41:46  <Eddi|zuHause2> breakdowns need serious rebalancing
21:41:46  <hylje> its because of the hueg scale in ottd
21:42:00  *** jnmbk [~jnmbk@85.97.88.35] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
21:42:00  <Eddi|zuHause2> rebalancing is planned for 0.6
21:42:04  <[gen2]niki> i mean, okay the game is ment to be hard and has normal as breakdown setting
21:42:05  <hylje> one tile is about two thousand km or so?
21:42:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> so expect that to be changed in the future
21:42:23  <[gen2]niki> good luck, if i can help say it. rebalancing is very hard
21:42:44  <hylje> imbalance :<
21:42:45  <[gen2]niki> o.o iam staff on a mmorpg gameserver and the hardest thing is rebalancing because it seriously takes the longest time
21:43:15  <FlashFF> Rubidium: Wooties how awesome
21:43:37  <FlashFF> i found a horrible, and incredibly painful bug lol
21:44:02  <Eddi|zuHause2> it must not be triggered that often ;)
21:44:43  <FlashFF> :(
21:47:14  <[gen2]niki> i think i know the bug
21:47:17  <[gen2]niki> :o
21:47:29  <[gen2]niki> the bugtracker jabber-activationcode sending doesnt work
21:47:36  <[gen2]niki> maybe cuz iam using gaim
21:47:38  <mattt_> so breakdowns are based on distance traveled while service intervals are based on time?
21:48:19  <[gen2]niki> dunno, this kelling k7 has 90 percent and has a breakdown every flight.. => nearly constant 300 mph...
21:48:29  <[gen2]niki> sry kmh.. instead of 900.
21:48:54  <mikk36> damn, whiskey is good :D
21:49:03  <mikk36> about 0.5L in already

21:58:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> yes, and i was being sarcastic ;)
21:59:13  <Biff> hmm, there are graphic glitches when my eurostar trains drive under tubular brigdes
21:59:45  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, bridges are known to have graphic issues
21:59:50  <Biff> ok
22:00:02  <Biff> havent noticed before
22:07:51  <MVV> nice english word 'glitch' :) it sounds like our russian shortening of 'hallucination' :)
22:07:53  <Rubidium> FlashFF: http://rubidium.student.utwente.nl/openttd/fix_no_new_players_when_more_than_8_clients.diff should fix your bug
22:08:13  <MVV> and it have almost same meaning :)
22:08:33  <MVV> *sounds ALMOST like
22:10:46  <[gen2]niki> Is there an rcon command to stop breakdowns?
22:10:57  <MVV> dictionary says that it's the same slang words :)
22:10:57  <[gen2]niki> its on normal settings and i want to change it without restarting the server
22:11:15  <Rubidium> isn't there some command to set all the patch variables?
22:11:38  <Rubidium> patch <name> <value>
22:11:45  <MVV> only we pronounce it like 'glook' :)
22:11:52  <MVV> sorry for offtop
22:12:01  * MVV shut up
22:14:56  <Eddi|zuHause2> breakdowns are a difficulty setting, i believe
22:14:57  <[gen2]niki> is there a way to do it? :o
22:15:01  <[gen2]niki> yes they are
22:15:52  <Rubidium> in that case I think it is not possible
22:16:57  <[gen2]niki> i think all planes should have 99.99 breakdown protection, but if there is an accident the whole train explodes
22:17:08  <[gen2]niki> not very family friendly but realistic
22:17:16  <[gen2]niki> argh
22:17:23  <[gen2]niki> the plane explodes ^^ not the train
22:17:27  <Eddi|zuHause2> if a plane has an accident, the train explodes ;)
22:17:33  <Eddi|zuHause2> nice reasoning ;)
22:17:37  <hylje> :>
22:17:39  <hylje> yeah
22:17:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> "night is colder than outside" ;)
22:17:57  <hylje> the plane should look for the closest train
22:18:03  <hylje> and crash into it
22:18:48  <MVV> :)
22:19:57  <MVV> plane will be like UFO :)
22:20:09  <MVV> Undefined Falling Object :))))
22:20:16  <Rubidium> the UFO doesn't crash anything :)
22:21:10  <MVV> mmm it'll be new kind of UFO :) interesting upgrade

22:23:59  <hylje> exterminatus?
22:24:32  <Rubidium> so you would like the fighter that destroys the UFOs fly randomly over the map and drop bombs randomly?
22:24:40  <Eddi|zuHause2> Atomic Bomb (splash damage) ;)

22:27:21  <MeusH> do you remember him saying farewell? Like when he's going to be back?
22:27:26  <Eddi|zuHause2> this Real Life seems to be a major epedemic
22:29:05  <MVV> so maybe ... is there any cataclysm in developing ?
22:29:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> like a virus that spreads through the internet...
22:29:15  <Eddi|zuHause2> err... ;)
22:29:17  <MVV> or new kind of UFO etc.
22:29:24  <hylje> pandemic
22:29:27  <Rubidium> MVV: no
22:30:00  <MVV> ^( it is a pity
22:30:40  <Eddi|zuHause2> we need more kinds of serious and less serious desasters
22:30:54  <MeusH> in OpenTTD?
22:31:01  <Eddi|zuHause2> like damaged tracks due to hard rain (causes derailing for fast trains)
22:31:46  <MeusH> Once I've made some disasters, but 1) People usually play without disasters 2) No developer wanted to do "bad things"
22:32:03  <MeusH> I've even made a patch to turn off unreal disasters like UFO
22:32:33  <Eddi|zuHause2> and desasters with random severity... like a derailed train can either go unharmed (simple breakdown, message of injured people), or get completely destroyed (crash, message of dead people)
22:32:34  <MeusH> frankly, I'd like disasters to be turned on by default with no way to disable them.
22:32:43  <MeusH> they are rare, and they do completly no harm
22:32:58  <MVV> it's just become boring when you have rther strong economics
22:33:30  <MeusH> well, I think crashing things is too bad disaster, but other disasters IMO should be turned on with no way to change it
22:33:55  *** Jango [~daniel@puritan.demon.co.uk] has joined #openttd
22:34:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> the game is lacking a "UFO got destroyed" message, i think
22:34:34  <MVV> hmm Eddi|zuHause2 what about ... bridges after some time become unstaile and collapse?
22:35:07  <Eddi|zuHause2> i constantly forget that they were there, and after years i come by and see the track all gone, with trains piling up
22:35:14  <[gen2]niki> or terrorist attacks on houses with YOUR planes (i hope i havent hurt any american patriotic soul here)
22:35:46  <Rubidium> [gen2]niki: that will _NEVER_ be included
22:36:08  <MVV> ??? ???? ???? ???? ????? ?)) ????
22:36:16  <[gen2]niki> ;p its open source
22:36:19  <MVV> but i'll make such patch :)) gigi
22:36:38  <MVV> yeah
22:36:56  <Rubidium> [gen2]niki: true, but it will _NEVER_ be in openttd, if you want to make a fork, have fun!
22:37:34  <[gen2]niki> hey i wast just playing with thoughts ;p
22:37:39  <Bjarni> bad move
22:37:44  <MVV> people i don't want to hurt your feelings
22:37:46  <[gen2]niki> regarding ttd as realistic transportation simulation ;p
22:37:46  <Bjarni> I wondered about kicking you
22:37:59  <Bjarni> terrorism is a real and really serious issue
22:38:04  <MVV> americans, it's a joke :)
22:38:33  <Eddi|zuHause2> we don't have that many americans here, actually
22:38:50  <MVV> sorry if i said something too bad
22:38:51  <Eddi|zuHause2> but that still does not make the joke good
22:38:53  <Bjarni> I'm not even sure there are any Americans here right now
22:38:55  <MVV> ^)
22:40:00  <Rubidium> it is just that OpenTTD will never add something that has to do with war.
22:40:24  <Bjarni> still, there are people out there, who wants to die and kill as many as possible if they are not true believers (or some other reason, depending on who they are) and they can strike at random
22:41:25  <MVV> oh don't think that i'm so (... who wants to die and kill....)
22:41:46  <[gen2]niki> there are also democratic nations who put in dictators in other nations o.O and i spoked of random accidents and not of actions planned by the player
22:41:56  <Bjarni> I didn't say that, but I think you don't realise what this issue is to live with in real life
22:42:00  <Ailure> openTTD have terrorists
22:42:04  <Ailure> they're just disguised as aliens
22:42:33  <Ailure> funny how the blasts dosen't destroy trains
22:42:39  <[gen2]niki> then you cant build in exploding trains or planes because its somethign real life?
22:42:39  <Ailure> when a UFO get blown up
22:43:05  * Bjarni thinks [gen2]niki totally misses the point here
22:43:16  <Bjarni> this have to do with harming people on purpose
22:43:39  <Bjarni> a train hitting a car in a crossing is an accident
22:43:49  <Bjarni> well, most of the time
22:43:58  <Athorium> OpenTTD need a disaster: derailment of train
22:44:03  <Bjarni> yeah
22:44:18  <Bjarni> and runaway trains
22:44:30  <Ailure> I think openTTD needs more disasters as well
22:44:35  <Athorium> OpenTTD can make velocity control signals
22:44:36  <Ailure> maybe some rare but more fatal disasters
22:44:43  <Ailure> a aircraft crashing once a month isn't fun
22:44:48  <Ailure> but something fatal every tenth year might be
22:44:55  <Biff> if trains would start crashing at random it would be impossible to play
22:44:58  <Bjarni> I laughed at the bug where somebody managed to get a wagon to leave a rail depot without a locomotive and asked "did it go downhill?"
22:45:22  <Athorium> is possible to make a velocity control signals?
22:45:25  <Biff> when you have large networks and many trains it would happen to often
22:45:35  <Bjarni> Athorium: everything is possible
22:45:39  <Ailure> there could be a rate
22:45:43  <Athorium> it's can be very useful to control traffic with different speed trains
22:45:44  <Ailure> so it's really really rare
22:45:53  <Bjarni> the question is if we want to spend enough time on each feature
22:45:53  <Ailure> and that even with laot of trains it dosen't happen often
22:46:03  <Ailure> same for breakdowns
22:46:09  <Ailure> I wouldn't mind breakdowns if they were less rare
22:46:13  <Athorium>  Bjarni uhmm OpenTTD pending list? :P
22:46:30  <Biff> Athorium: why, all trains usually have the same speed
22:46:31  <Bjarni> some of the ideas some people show up with sounds like rewriting most of the game and that's why they aren't done... they take too long
22:46:35  <Biff> or about the same speed
22:46:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> Athorium: a signal rewrite with more possible options is already pending ;)
22:47:08  <Ailure> I could always make some joke disaster if i'm bored enough
22:47:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> btw: http://www.qdb.us/61399
22:47:12  <Athorium> Biff no, I have trains with 55 Km/h electrics and 122 Km/h steam train... and electrics makes a traffic jam
22:47:17  <Ailure> such as every tile on the map exploded
22:47:26  <Biff> Athorium: why do you have those?
22:47:27  <Ailure> so the whole landscape is just dirt
22:47:32  <MVV> can anybody give some link to example of using complex train system with different kinds of signal because i can't understand meaning of most of signals such as pre-signals and theirvarieties
22:47:49  <Athorium> Biff for different uses, some steam freight, electrics for passengers...
22:47:53  <Biff> MVV: you can have a savegame?
22:47:54  <Bjarni> we will eventually get PBS back in a version where trains and signals "talk" with each other and then an addition of speed depending signals could be introduced
22:48:02  <Ailure> MVV, looked in the manual already?
22:48:19  <Bjarni> like green, but the next signal is red, so slow down to try to prevent a complete stop
22:48:26  <Ailure> Your best bet is probably turning on a cheat and play around with them until it sticks
22:48:37  <Athorium> ah, I finded a bug in PBS. but I don't know how to explain...
22:48:37  <Ailure> ah

22:49:16  <Ailure> well anything for increased realism is good
22:49:19  <Bjarni> yeah, but with more advanced signals, they can actually make sense
22:49:34  <Ailure> even if 600 km/h > 0 km/h in a few milliseconds is pretty funny
22:49:34  *** Zr40 [~Zirconium@zr40.xs4all.nl] has joined #openttd
22:49:39  <Athorium> I think that speed signals can be a good feature for realism... :)
22:49:43  <Bjarni> Ailure: I got a question for you
22:49:55  <Ailure> hmm?
22:50:08  <Bjarni> on Swedish roads, some of them got like an extra "half lane" next to them
22:50:12  <Bjarni> what is the purpose?
22:50:28  <Ailure> I think it's for emergency purposes
22:50:32  <Bjarni> I noticed that some (specially busses and lorries) drive there
22:50:50  <Ailure> hm
22:50:53  <Bjarni> you got a driver's license?
22:50:57  <Ailure> nope
22:50:59  <Ailure> that's the thing
22:51:10  <Bjarni> maybe I should find somebody else to ask :p
22:51:12  <Ailure> Though I should have gotten it years ago
22:51:24  <Bjarni> parents too cheap?
22:51:25  <Ailure> but i really don't want a car for now
22:51:29  <Ailure> eh nah
22:51:32  <Ailure> it's mostly myself
22:51:35  <Ailure> I did some basic training
22:51:43  <Ailure> but then started college and got busy
22:52:07  <Bjarni> you see, I did it with perfect timing so I got it just before I got really busy
22:52:15  <Ailure> basic training = driving with my dad who got a license for training me to drive or something
22:52:19  <Ailure> heh
22:52:30  <Ailure> there were a such course in my upper secondary school
22:52:45  <Ailure> optional, but way too popular
22:52:49  <Ailure> so it was hard to get a place
22:53:13  <Eddi|zuHause2> in germany, teaching to drive must be done by professionals
22:53:21  <Bjarni> same here

22:53:38  <Bjarni> sometimes you can question how professional they are though :P
22:54:02  <Ailure> I think it's enough that you had a driving license for a certain amount of years here
22:54:12  <Biff> compared to here in norway, german driving schools are excellent
22:54:20  <Ailure> but I can't home-school everything
22:54:25  <Ailure> I have to do the tests on a real school
22:54:30  <Biff> the germans actually knows how to drive
22:54:45  <Ailure> my dad would object to that
22:54:47  <Ailure> :P
22:55:12  <Ailure> Hmm, damn.
22:55:14  <Biff> oh?
22:55:23  <Ailure> I think I should go and get some sleep
22:55:27  <Ailure> midnight and i'm getting tired.
22:55:33  <Eddi|zuHause2> that's often the thing with germany... the people know exactly how things are supposed to work, but they break the rules on purpose ;)
22:56:04  <Ailure> and germans looks down on the game industry as the work of the evil or something
22:56:14  <Ailure> at least that's what a... friend who lives in germany tells me.
22:56:28  <Biff> Eddi|zuHause2: could be
22:56:29  <Bjarni> I heard a story about a tourist in Germany. He rented a car and since it was not his car, he didn't care about speeding. He would never see the pictures or get fined because he would have left the country before the police could manage to find him. When he handed in the car, the police was present and had a whole photo album and a somewhat big collection of speeding tickets
22:56:43  <Biff> but a german would go mad after one day in norway
22:57:11  <[gen2]niki> any more problems about germans? >:-c
22:57:23  <Bjarni> a German could go mad after one day in Germany, so what is the point?
22:57:35  <Bjarni> [gen2]niki: yeah, they speak German :P
22:57:59  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, bloody germans, fuck them :p
22:58:00  <[gen2]niki> atleast we have fair alcohol prices, unlike scandinavian countries
22:58:14  <Biff> [gen2]niki: where?
22:58:20  <[gen2]niki> eddi is prolly austrian or swiss ;p
22:58:37  <Eddi|zuHause2> no, Gonozal_VIII is austrian
22:58:44  <Bjarni> no, Eddi|zuHause2 is in Germany fucking Germans
22:59:24  <Bjarni> I would not want to know what the word "bloody" were doing in that sentence... maybe he is into such things
22:59:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> hm... 1GB to go... i have a feeling this one takes forever
22:59:50  <MVV> oh yeah .... 20mln or russian soldiers ...
23:00:10  <[gen2]niki> thats 60 years ago
23:00:11  <Bjarni> MVV: ???
23:00:12  <[gen2]niki> o.o
23:00:18  <MVV> WW2
23:00:27  <[gen2]niki> most of our veterans are dead or in retirement castles
23:00:32  <MVV> fucking germans :)
23:00:58  <Bjarni> one thing is for sure about WW2. If Germany had won, then there would not be an Israel-Palestine issue now
23:01:12  <MVV> my grandfather was on that war
23:01:28  <Eddi|zuHause2> most of our grandfathers were in that war

23:01:38  <[gen2]niki> yep.
23:01:46  <Bjarni> my grandmother was in the resistance
23:01:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> my grandfather was in texan military prison
23:01:57  <MeusH> Bjarni: maybye you know what was Hitler's view on Muslims?
23:01:59  <[gen2]niki> in texas?
23:02:00  <[gen2]niki> :O!
23:02:10  <MVV> ^)))
23:02:24  <Bjarni> but due to security, she knew very little. She just walked around town during the daytime bringing food supplies to people, who had to hide
23:02:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> i guess it was better than russian...
23:02:52  <[gen2]niki> most likely.. ive seen photos my grandpa took on his war journey
23:02:52  <[gen2]niki> o.o
23:03:00  <[gen2]niki> did you know they had cannons on giant locomotivesß
23:03:03  <MeusH> Bjarni: even this was a good reason to kill someone
23:03:18  <MeusH> [gen2]niki, yeah, these were huge and amazing cannons
23:03:32  <[gen2]niki> not amazing o.o but technically interesting
23:03:36  <MVV> i imagine germans who go to russia through texas :)
23:03:46  <Bjarni> <MeusH>	Bjarni: maybye you know what was Hitler's view on Muslims? <--- Himmler suggested that Germany should convert to Islam so the soldiers could die for Allah, so they would go into suicide missions. Hitler and the other people at the top disagreed and Himmler lost his influence
23:04:00  <Eddi|zuHause2> my granfather also left stalingrad with one of the last planes
23:04:00  <MeusH> three locomotives must have been stopping the train after firing a single shot, a projectile weighting several tons
23:04:04  <Eddi|zuHause2> after he got injured
23:04:17  <MeusH> thanks Bjarni
23:04:31  <[gen2]niki> germany had suicide missions anyways
23:04:39  <Bjarni> yeah
23:04:45  <[gen2]niki> its a fact though most people dont know
23:04:48  <Bjarni> they would not gain anything from converting
23:04:51  <[gen2]niki> they always have kamikaze in mind
23:04:56  <Bjarni> in fact I think it would have backfired
23:04:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> "one man torpedos"
23:05:09  <MVV> my grandfather was in Sebastopol, there were 2 cannonns 20meters lenght and the shell was 1.2m id diameter
23:05:24  <MeusH> MVV: do you remember its weight?
23:05:36  <MVV> no
23:05:42  <Bjarni> AFAIK nobody in my family actually fired a single shot during the war
23:05:48  <MVV> i have foto in albums
23:05:51  <[gen2]niki> i think ww2 runs in danger that people dont think about it anymore just because the people die and you think: it was 60 years ago, whats the deal
23:06:03  <Eddi|zuHause2> my grandfather lost two brothers in the war
23:06:26  <MeusH> MVV: the biggest train cannon was Dora with a calliber of 80cm - less than 1.2m
23:06:32  <Bjarni> 	<[gen2]niki>	i think ww2 runs in danger that people dont think about it anymore just because the people die and you think: it was 60 years ago, whats the deal <-- what would you want us to do about it?
23:06:50  <Bjarni> unite all countries so we get civil wars instead of wars between countries?
23:06:59  <Eddi|zuHause2> start another war that people can talk about ;)
23:07:10  <Bjarni> that appears to be the EU idea when they claim that they will stop all European wars
23:07:18  <MVV> that 2 cannons were defending Sebastopol for a long time but gemans accupied one of the cannons are fired in another one do destroy it
23:07:25  <[gen2]niki> spread knowledge that it comes back into people minds o.o
23:07:46  <[gen2]niki> i mean we are in a nuclear age.
23:08:01  <[gen2]niki> world wont look as good as it looked after the last if there is another
23:08:01  <MeusH> wiki: Some projectiles weighted 7.1 ton
23:08:16  <MVV> MeusH 'll find in internet excact info and inform you
23:08:36  <MeusH> one projectile dug 100 meters into ground, broke a gelbet roof and exploded
23:08:45  <MeusH> hmm... is it gelbet?
23:08:55  <Bjarni> [gen2]niki: so if we inform say all Germans about this and France gets upset at Germany and wants revenge, what would it help Germany when France starts to bomb Germany?
23:09:01  <Eddi|zuHause2> what's a gelbet supposed to be?
23:09:11  <Bjarni> it's a theoretical issue

23:10:23  <MeusH> I meant... reinforced concerte

23:10:26  <MVV> americans likes to hide true info about russian war equipment :) it's true :) believe me :) i watch sometimes american tv-programs and they are veeery funny :)
23:10:32  <[gen2]niki> it wasnt their fault that it was a loss

23:10:53  <MeusH> brb

23:11:03  <Eddi|zuHause2> ah... "Stahlbeton"
23:11:07  <[gen2]niki> WW1 was glorified
23:11:38  <Bjarni> WW1 was the war where everybody were attacked and had to defend themselves... really odd start of a war
23:11:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> i believe one of the main causes of WW2 was that the allies tried to suppress germany after WW1
23:12:11  <Bjarni> most likely
23:12:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> they did not make that mistake twice ;)
23:12:41  <Bjarni> the NaZi party gained power due to problems like lack of jobs, that were made worse by allied suppression
23:12:51  <[gen2]niki> + WW1 was rather a european war
23:12:59  <[gen2]niki> if you ignorethe fact that it was fight for colonies
23:13:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> "if you ignore all global influences, WW1 was really a local issue" :p
23:13:59  <Bjarni> WW1 was a world war since Europe controlled the planet through it's colonies (except USA and Mexico, who ended up playing a role anyway)
23:14:16  <Bjarni> lol @ Eddi|zuHause2
23:14:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> well that is what [gen2]niki's proposition sounded like ;)
23:15:47  <Tuzlo> both wars were statred due ti indifferences in the Europes

23:16:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> what's an indifference supposed to be? the opposite of a difference?
23:16:33  <Bjarni> according to USA, the Japanese made an unprovoked sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, while they did so because USA was behind a complete oil buycut to prevent Japan from getting oil. It was part of a plan to protect their new line to gain oil (gained though another attack on Indonesia at the same time)
23:16:48  <MVV> f%cking dial-up....
23:16:49  <Tuzlo> germans may have drawn the atten=tion but they did not necessarily start the wars, they sure did play a huge part though
23:16:52  <Bjarni> but Japan lost and we learn the American version in the history books
23:18:03  <Bjarni> Germany gained old German land and was willing to fight against everybody, who would stop them
23:18:08  <Bjarni> in WW2
23:18:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> some conspiracy theories tell that american government knew about the upcoming attack on perl harbour, but needed a shock for the public to have them support the war
23:18:33  <MVV> i remember japan plans in ww1 to concuer all the asian russia till to ural for several months :)

23:19:35  <Eddi|zuHause2> there was a russia-japan war a few years earlier
23:19:44  <MVV> yeah they knew about it like england knew about bombing their city, where germans killed almost all of people of this city (i don't remember it's name)
23:19:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> that's Coventry

23:27:43  <Bjarni> or used to have them.... they are smuggled over here :(
23:28:02  <MVV> in the WW2 Ukraine as i know was the second by the amount of killed people
23:28:24  <Bjarni> yeah
23:28:28  <Bjarni> you are a red country
23:28:31  <MVV> corrupt politicans is due to americans !!!
23:28:44  <Bjarni> explain
23:28:53  <Eddi|zuHause2> it's not like the americans invented corrupt politicians
23:29:01  <MVV> USA gives a lot of money to orange government
23:29:06  <Bjarni> they got plenty though
23:29:37  <MeusH> tell me more MVV. I know about america's dirty game concerning Iran, but I haven't heard much about Ukraine
23:30:16  <MVV> USA invested milliards of dollar personally to Ushenko to involve them into transforming the government into 'orange'
23:30:20  <Bjarni> USA claims it's to even out the advances for the other wing that get money from Russia
23:30:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> i could think that USA are interested in establishing some power against russia
23:31:01  <Bjarni> USA is too obsessed with the communism thing
23:31:13  <MVV> ohhh MeusH USA did a loooot to decrease  our internal stability
23:31:42  <Bjarni> USA acts like they own the world
23:31:49  <MeusH> MVV, are you orange or blue?
23:31:50  <MVV> yeah USA drags us into NATO but our people don't want it
23:31:51  <Bjarni> they "only" own half of it
23:32:11  <MVV> blue but only in political sense :)
23:32:13  <MeusH> or you try not to get involved in that?
23:32:17  <MeusH> mhm
23:32:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> they recently learned that they do not "own" germany anymore
23:32:23  <Bjarni> what's wrong with NATO?
23:32:32  <Eddi|zuHause2> i think that was a pretty punch in their face
23:32:50  <MeusH> what do you mean by political sense? that you're with communists? or you're with socialism but not with communists?
23:32:56  <Bjarni> they protect us from attacks from Communistic Poland.... wherever that went :P
23:33:08  <MeusH> :p
23:33:16  <Tuzlo> The situation with Iran wasnt really over nuclear power. It started with Iran wanting to start an oil trading circle based on the EU...... Not nothing to worry about?????? Wrong. The current Oil trading is done in US dollars, to buy oil you must first buy US dollars, over inflating the real price of a Green back. If Iran were to succeed with what they were planning, it would have driven the US Dollar through the floor in no time at all. And rumour h
23:34:06  <MVV> 80% or more don't want to go nito NATO but Ushenko being sponsored by USA drag us into it 4 he don't want to listen our government and our peoplr4 he does only what USA said him and his party to do
23:34:24  <MeusH> intresting. so if Iran managed to finish the pipeline, more transactions would be done in Euros?
23:34:27  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, USA are probably in big fear of oil trade being done in EUR
23:34:57  <Bjarni> Iran just announced that they switched to EUR for all international transactions, no USD anymore
23:35:05  <Tuzlo> of course they are, the dollar would be worthless
23:35:23  <MVV> i'm neither socialist nor communist4 there is a 'center' party 'Party of Regions' or 'Regions' Patry' 4 i think this party must rules our country
23:35:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> it probably already has a reason that the dollar dropped like that in the past few years
23:36:22  <Tuzlo> well, thats because their deficit keeps increasing and other countries are reducing their debt... Also US is a net importer of Oil,, and oil is on a roll
23:36:27  <MVV> oh i can tell much more about our political situation but i cann't 'speak' in English so quickly
23:36:28  *** Peakki [antti@cs181000195.pp.htv.fi] has quit [Quit: Lähdössä]
23:36:32  <MeusH> yeah, dollar dropped very low. Electronics are cheap, oil is cheap... even with horrendous tax, oil is cheap
23:36:45  <MeusH> MVV, do you know polish a bit?
23:36:54  <MVV> no
23:37:15  <MVV> are you from Poland? :) or why do you ask?
23:37:25  <MeusH> yeah, I'm from Poland
23:38:15  <Bjarni> oil is really expensive
23:38:26  <MeusH> Thanks Tuzlo for that info. That all makes perfect sence now! Do you have some links or directions where can I learn more?
23:38:27  <Bjarni> it's like 6-70 USD/barrel
23:38:28  <MVV> i know Russian - its my native language, Ukrainian and English a bit after finishing  school (we have a lot of English in it)
23:38:44  <Tuzlo> oil is expensive anywhere, and over priced. Driven up by retiremetn fnud investments, dont expect it to drop soon
23:39:16  <Tuzlo> MeusH: I read that a while back some on CNN, some on some other web sites
23:39:23  <Tuzlo> the Euro one was on CNN I think
23:39:40  <MVV> MeusH it is a pity but it is very hard to find truth in massmedia4 only common people can bring truth i( if they are not stupid)
23:39:41  <MeusH> whoa, I thought CNN keeps up with that sick goverment
23:39:46  <Eddi|zuHause2> i heard that eastern european countries often have german as first foreign language over english
23:39:47  <Bjarni> it would be interesting if more people would do as we do: use green power production. We got 28,5% of our power from non-fossile fuels, like wind energy
23:40:01  <Bjarni> the rest is mainly from coal
23:40:15  <Tuzlo> Bjarni: some countries are starting to mandate it
23:40:17  <Bjarni> we use very little oil in power production
23:40:20  <Tuzlo> only a few though
23:40:33  <MVV> yeah german is a second language here after english
23:41:37  <Eddi|zuHause2> and taking eastern countries into EU made german the 2nd most spoken foreign language (after english and before french)
23:41:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> it is already the most spoken first language
23:41:55  <MVV> with time all schools here become ukrainian and they stop lessons of russian language but near 75-80% of us speak Russian
23:41:57  <Bjarni> I read that a car company said that they could build a car, that goes twice as long on the same amount of fuel, but then the top speed would be 100-120 km/h and people would not want that.... I don't remember being asked
23:41:58  <MeusH> Bjarni: we get over 90% of power from coal
23:42:28  <Bjarni> MeusH: Polish coal is rather good quality and you can get it fairly cheap, so I'm not surprised
23:42:29  <Tuzlo> woot got 0 million in my game
23:42:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> low-fuel-cares are heavily lobbyed against by the oil industry
23:42:45  <MeusH> Bjarni: interesting about that car company
23:42:53  <MeusH> do you remember case of fanless processor?
23:43:12  <MeusH> it was ages ago, but anyway, processor was so good that it didn't need a cooling fan
23:43:18  *** ThePizzaKing [~jeff@c211-28-164-191.eburwd2.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #openttd
23:43:18  <MVV> so let me do conclusion
23:43:22  <MeusH> but people didn't want to buy it
23:43:25  <Jango> anyone french here?
23:43:30  <MVV> about today's political situation here ...
23:43:33  <MeusH> so the company put a fan just to make noise
23:43:43  <Bjarni> Jango: go ask for sexual favours somewhere else
23:43:46  <MeusH> and suddenly people started buying it
23:43:52  <MeusH> MVV, go on
23:44:07  <Jango> Bjarni, sounds like you're fantasising about something already
23:44:16  <Bjarni> heh, I would totally go for a fanless CPU. I hate the noise
23:44:21  <Eddi|zuHause2> go get a room you two...
23:44:26  <Bjarni> lol
23:44:32  <Bjarni> no
23:44:51  <Bjarni> since he is in here, he is a he (or ugly). I reject both cases
23:45:03  <Jango> i could be neither
23:45:25  <Bjarni> with a name like Daniel???
23:45:28  <Jango> ah, true
23:46:47  <glx> [00:43:37] <Jango> anyone french here? <-- why?
23:47:06  <MeusH> Bjarni: the worst thing is that our only nuclear reactor(s) (one or two) belong to scientistics. Only a few people are afraid of (im)possible breakdowns, and they are so stupid that they don't know Poland is surrounded by nuclear reactors so close to the border
23:47:42  <Bjarni> we closed down our 3 test nuclear reactors and they are being taken apart
23:47:42  <MeusH> it's a great loss we're forced to rely on russian gas etc
23:48:06  <Bjarni> and due to political work, we got Sweden to close a nuclear plant placed too close to the boarder
23:48:06  <MeusH> by scavengers or legally?
23:48:11  <Bjarni> legally
23:48:30  <Jango> right, gn
23:48:35  <MeusH> goodnight Jango
23:48:44  <MeusH> MVV, you said you're going to conclude
23:48:49  <Bjarni> they are measuring each piece for radioactivity and they classify them for how dangerous they are before they leave the area
23:48:49  <MeusH> was ... a conclusion? :p
23:49:00  <Eddi|zuHause2> there was a huge political discussion about opening a reactor right behind the border of tschechia
23:49:16  <MeusH> where are you from Eddi|zuHause2
23:49:19  <MeusH> ?
23:49:23  <Eddi|zuHause2> germany, still
23:49:28  <MVV> USA don't want Ukraine to unite with Russia like Belorussia almost done it in some spheres; that's why USA does it's agitating making our nationalistic organizations more active to destabilize our economy to make us not attractive for foreign investments; people of Ukraine mostly want to be united with Russia, Belorussia and Kazakhstan but political branches that have foreign investments make all possible to make our borders with other countries more strict
23:49:36  <MeusH> where are you going to move?
23:49:38  <MVV> it's my point of view
23:50:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> i have no plans to move anywhere
23:50:27  <Bjarni> knowing what USA did in South America, it's very likely
23:50:35  <MeusH> MVV, I think it's the best to unite with the west. West is evil. But Russia is pure hell. I'd choose the less evil one...
23:50:55  <Bjarni> ok, that's one way of putting it
23:50:55  <MeusH> It's good to be an independent country
23:50:58  <MVV> ^) why Russia is hell ?
23:51:23  <Bjarni> you are too young and innocent to know
23:51:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> you do know what russia is doing in Tschetschenia (spelling?)
23:51:36  <MVV> yes it's good but not in such way like we do
23:51:49  <MeusH> Tshetshenia, Georgia, raid in Moscow theater, corruption, gulags!, death camps...
23:51:53  <ln-> Chechnya
23:51:57  <MeusH> fucking up Poland
23:52:03  <MeusH> sorry. Thanks ln-
23:52:11  <MeusH> they fucked up Poland
23:52:13  <MVV> yeah i know about chechenskaya republic
23:52:27  <MeusH> their agents are still here trying to rule the goverment again
23:52:34  <MeusH> the same is in ukraine
23:52:47  <MVV> i can tell a few words about chchnya ....
23:53:05  <Bjarni> officially USSR is dead, but undercover they still work with agents where you least expect them
23:53:16  <MeusH> like Polish curches
23:53:22  <MeusH> our archibishops are agents
23:53:30  <MeusH> left side politics of course say they aren't
23:53:39  <MeusH> ...
23:53:42  <MeusH> back to Ukraine
23:54:29  <MeusH> if Russia had more control over Ukraine, you would end up like Belarus. Terrible dictator, reporters dying in suspicious circumstances, "disturbing" people having their families killed or moved far to Syberia
23:54:47  <Bjarni> to quote a famous Dane I once saw on TV. He talked about thinking planned economy as a good thing and then his dad said "why do you think people free from DDR to BRD and not the other way?"
23:54:59  <MeusH> you wouldn't have a strong currency. you'd have a rubel, which isn't worth anything tbh
23:55:12  <Bjarni> which is actually a good question in this case
23:55:19  <MeusH> what's DDR and BRD?
23:55:32  <ln-> ...
23:55:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> Deutsche Demokratische Republik (east germany)
23:55:45  <MeusH> kk
23:55:46  <Bjarni> ...
23:55:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> Bundesrepublik Deutschland (west germany)
23:55:51  <MeusH> NRD and RFN :D

23:56:56  <SpComb> Logs: http://zapotek.paivola.fi/~terom/logs/openttd
23:56:56  <Bjarni> !logs
23:57:22  <MeusH> Bjarni, frankly I didn't thought how is it in other languages
23:57:24  <MeusH> bad me
23:57:27  <Bjarni> _MVV_: it appears that it's a good idea for you to read the logs... you appear to have missed some stuff
23:57:49  <_MVV_> it's just a musulman country like afganistan or some another; it has it's own mentality and their people being controlled by their religy are more .... you understand :) i don't want to say anything rather bad; so chechnya always do terrects in Russia only because of russian police arest chechnya's criminals; 'chechenci' kill russian people onlybecause they are so; and russian soldiers do in chechnya something like what USA does; Russia are finding chechnya
23:57:51  <_MVV_> 's criminals and liquidate them
23:57:51  <Bjarni> I tend to call them by their German names... due to their German nature
23:58:13  <_MVV_> yeah i can miss something because i slowly type :)
23:58:39  <Bjarni> [00:54:47] 	<Bjarni>	to quote a famous Dane I once saw on TV. He talked about thinking planned economy as a good thing and then his dad said "why do you think people free from DDR to BRD and not the other way?"
23:58:39  <ln-> interestingly, DDR has always been known as DDR in finland. there is a finnish name, but no finnish abbreviation.
23:58:43  <Bjarni> mainly this line
23:58:46  <tokai> Bjarni: you can say GDR and FDR too (international shortings AFAIR) usualy germans know that too ;)
23:59:00  <Bjarni> but I don't
23:59:18  <Eddi|zuHause2> err... it's rather FRG
23:59:34  <MeusH> it's RFN...
23:59:34  <Bjarni> to me it's DDR and BRD
23:59:36  <MeusH> whatever
23:59:43  <Eddi|zuHause2> but i really don't think germans would recognize those
23:59:48  <tokai> Eddit: err... right. well i'm sleeping and only talking in dreams:)
23:59:50  <tokai> -t
