09:58:31  <andythenorth> honestly I would rather see Simuscape thrive and not have these issues
09:58:53  <andythenorth> I've read the posts, and there are numerous people who are genuinely upset and hurt by what goes on at tt-forums
09:59:08  <andythenorth> including some that might be surprising
09:59:40  <andythenorth> if two communities are what is needed, I would rather see them rub along, with civil interchange

10:40:22  <andythenorth> FLHerne: the forums are, for some, quite a robust environment
10:40:54  <andythenorth> it can be difficult for some to enjoy that
10:41:33  <andythenorth> there is a small irony - some of those who make it a difficult environment are also people who have moved, in some cases dramatically, to Simuscape
10:42:05  <andythenorth> which makes me wonder if Simuscape is really going to pan out to be the friendly, supportive environment they're hoping for, or wether it ultimately implodes in drama
10:42:21  <andythenorth> but I wish it success
10:42:36  <andythenorth> I would rather see multiple thriving tt communities, and no sense of tribalism

14:47:55  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: it's always fun when design suggestions for a system are made by people who have not looked at what the system is / does :)
14:48:07  <andythenorth> as the owner of a software company, it's one of my favourite things to deal with :)
14:48:11  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: it is .... special, so to say :)
14:48:19  <TrueBrain> I mean, at least login once?
14:48:21  <TrueBrain> and look?
14:48:22  <TrueBrain> but meh :)
14:48:29  <TrueBrain> I am already happy they are replying in a constructive way
14:48:48  <TrueBrain> and, with good ideas between them :)
14:49:43  <andythenorth> yes
14:51:07  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: you may or may not hate lean stuff, but anyway, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genchi_Genbutsu
14:51:28  <andythenorth> as a manager / company owner I try to always remember it
14:52:31  <andythenorth> maybe I should make a system diagram of bananas?
14:52:58  <TrueBrain> for our customers (I work for a software company / ISP), we have apiece of software which requires them to be on the site they report issues with
14:53:01  <TrueBrain> including screenshots etc
14:53:04  <TrueBrain> it works wonders
14:53:40  <andythenorth> :)
14:53:57  <TrueBrain> reminds me, what do you think of the speed of this: http://www-test.openttd.org/
14:54:00  <andythenorth> so I missed the ToS on signup, I guess my eyes aren't working early in the morning
14:54:18  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: perceptually fine, do you want an actual time to load report?
14:54:26  <TrueBrain> no :P
14:54:32  <TrueBrain> after first load, it is client-cached
14:54:45  <TrueBrain> and it is almost finished! \o/
14:55:32  <FLHerne> What's that supposed to look like?
14:55:44  <TrueBrain> like www.openttd.org :P
14:55:54  <TrueBrain> only much faster / better
14:55:57  <TrueBrain> and new menu :P
14:56:00  <andythenorth> the selected state is the same on both navbars, I find that a bit strange to see personally
14:56:13  <TrueBrain> what would you suggest?
14:56:15  <TrueBrain> other colours?
14:56:17  <andythenorth> green for second
14:56:27  <andythenorth> green and orange together is a bit naughty, but fits the theme
14:56:32  <TrueBrain> are you in any means to make such an image, by any chance? :P
14:56:35  <andythenorth> or just invert the grey
14:56:52  <andythenorth> right now I'm holding one baby and preventing the toddler doing damage to self / house / lego trains
14:56:58  <andythenorth> if you're here later, I can do it
14:57:04  <TrueBrain> would be nice :D
14:57:11  <TrueBrain> I suck at that greatly
14:57:15  <andythenorth> a variation on the over state would do, just a bit lighter
14:57:16  <TrueBrain> Osai used to do it for me :D
14:57:19  <FLHerne> Should it be "Test ð€­¢ Message Second line Test ð€­¢ Message 3rd"? Or am I supposed to be seeing newlines there?
14:57:19  <andythenorth> I can do it
14:57:27  <andythenorth> I'm not a great designer, but I can make internets
14:57:33  <TrueBrain> FLHerne: no; you don't have a utf-8 charset loaded :P
14:57:48  <TrueBrain> some weird chinese symbols are there
14:57:51  <TrueBrain> owh, the lines you mean
14:57:57  <TrueBrain> yeah, there is no \n -> <br> yet

15:02:39  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: when do we get to rebuild the bananas frontend ? :P
15:03:06  <TrueBrain> after that? I dunno :P
15:03:21  <andythenorth> I am away most of June
15:03:25  <andythenorth> after that?
15:03:37  <TrueBrain> I told in dev-channel already, if all it takes for SAC to upload his files to BaNaNaS that it looks better, it is a small effort to at least do that .. as it is heavily overdue anyway :P
15:03:39  <TrueBrain> sure
15:04:20  <andythenorth> I have one patch on it that Rubidiu* committed last year
15:04:33  <andythenorth> but otherwise lack of dev environment blocks me :P
15:04:37  <TrueBrain> hehe
15:04:55  <andythenorth> django I don't know, but looks trivial, similar to the other python frameworks
15:04:59  <TrueBrain> depending how this talk with SAC et al goes, we might want to revisit how BaNaNaS works
15:05:06  <andythenorth> maybe indeed
15:05:23  <TrueBrain> if they really want deleting of old versions, we are on an impas in these regards
15:05:30  <TrueBrain> and we might want to lean more towards grfcrawler
15:05:34  <TrueBrain> no clue how, or what, or ...
15:05:43  <andythenorth> I am fine with it
15:06:02  <TrueBrain> I don't really like it, as I like the openess BaNaNaS offers, but we will have to see
15:06:07  <andythenorth> are you familiar with saying "that's a version [n] feature"?
15:06:12  <TrueBrain> SAC appears very willing to solve the issue, and I am sure others are too, so
15:06:18  <andythenorth> [we do it with software customers]
15:06:20  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: it is what I tell my boss all the time :P
15:06:28  <TrueBrain> yeah, for 1.1 .. which never happens
15:06:29  <TrueBrain> :P
15:06:38  <andythenorth> meanwhile we're shipping version n-1
15:06:45  <andythenorth> often the n-1 features ar
15:06:53  <andythenorth> turn out to be good enough
15:06:59  <TrueBrain> yup
15:07:09  <TrueBrain> and sometimes customers don't know what they really want
15:07:15  <TrueBrain> they think they want n, but really, they don't
15:08:06  <andythenorth> often our customers specify n before using our app or any competitors
15:08:13  <TrueBrain> hehe
15:08:18  <andythenorth> when they use n-1 they're happy enough
15:08:45  <TrueBrain> back to BaNaNaS, a common complaints is the many many types we have
15:08:51  <TrueBrain> and the clouded overview it presents new users with
15:08:58  <andythenorth> hmm
15:09:00  <TrueBrain> we sort by upload or download count
15:09:02  <TrueBrain> which is silly
15:09:06  <andythenorth> yes
15:09:08  <TrueBrain> I always wanted to make some kind of review board
15:09:12  <TrueBrain> where you rate uploads
15:09:21  <TrueBrain> it might be a good time to add that
15:09:22  <andythenorth> moi aussi
15:09:33  <TrueBrain> too often the question is asked: what grfs are good to play with
15:09:36  <TrueBrain> there is n o answer of course
15:09:39  <andythenorth> star ratings are very problematic btw
15:09:53  <andythenorth> allow sharing of presets?
15:09:57  <andythenorth> or groups?
15:10:06  <TrueBrain> but they need some kind of rating too
15:10:09  <TrueBrain> or description
15:10:14  <TrueBrain> or indication of playtype
15:10:24  <TrueBrain> like I understood Pikka's set introduces a different economy
15:10:27  <andythenorth> ratings is a messy social problem :)
15:10:27  <TrueBrain> which for me is really interesting
15:10:32  <TrueBrain> but by accident I found that out
15:10:39  <TrueBrain> yeah, so we need something ... more clever
15:11:19  <andythenorth> I want 'actual time played with'
15:11:28  <andythenorth> but that needs an illegal 'phone home' feature :P
15:11:29  <TrueBrain> interesting idea/concept
15:11:47  <TrueBrain> well ..
15:11:51  <TrueBrain> we known which grfs run on servers
15:11:56  <TrueBrain> that can be an indication, although an unfair one
15:12:12  <andythenorth> :)
15:12:32  <andythenorth> reviewers?
15:12:34  <andythenorth> editors?
15:12:35  <TrueBrain> what I see in logs, that atm people just "Select All" + "Download"
15:12:51  <TrueBrain> that for sure doesn't work .. but changing that ingame ... no clue how
15:13:09  <TrueBrain> I had some weird ideas like: inclient you can login, then it syncs your files with the server
15:13:13  <TrueBrain> (server = openttd.org)
15:13:20  <TrueBrain> at openttd.org you can select which files you want for your game
15:13:25  <TrueBrain> basically, prepare your whole game
15:13:27  <TrueBrain> a bit 'cloud' idea
15:14:08  <andythenorth> so you could choose other people's pre-prepared games?
15:14:10  <TrueBrain> as ingame it will never be easy to select specific grfs I guess :P
15:14:12  <TrueBrain> yes
15:14:21  <TrueBrain> for all I care, with all the settings included
15:14:27  <TrueBrain> but at least with the grfs
15:14:29  <andythenorth> 'add to my game'
15:14:34  <andythenorth> 'download my game'
15:14:51  <TrueBrain> I also have been pondering about ideas like: upload your savegame into "the cloud"
15:14:53  <TrueBrain> or sync
15:14:54  <TrueBrain> what ever
15:14:57  <TrueBrain> so you can play where-ever
15:15:01  <TrueBrain> I often had that need with OpenTTD :P
15:15:06  <TrueBrain> had to put it on an USB-stick
15:15:09  <andythenorth> configure online, download: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/download.html
15:15:09  <andythenorth> ]
15:15:12  <TrueBrain> but that is a bit outside the scope of BaNaNaS :P
15:15:21  <cornishpasty> B A N A N A S
15:15:30  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Put your savegames inside dropbox? :-)
15:15:33  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: s3
15:15:39  <TrueBrain> blathijs: lolz, valid suggestion
15:15:43  <cornishpasty> andythenorth: public ftp
15:15:43  <TrueBrain> never crossed my mind, while I have it installed
15:15:45  <TrueBrain> silly :D
15:15:47  <andythenorth> 'upgrade your space for ' :P
15:15:59  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Ironically I don't actually use dropbox ;-p
15:16:06  <TrueBrain> but given the amount of HD space we have on our server, we could also allow it on openttd.org
15:16:13  <TrueBrain> anyway, just random ideas I sometimes have
15:16:17  <TrueBrain> to make OpenTTD more ... modern
15:16:19  *** keoz [~keikoz@141.2.96.19] has quit [Quit: keoz]
15:16:21  <TrueBrain> state-of-the-art
15:16:26  <andythenorth> savegames get....big :o
15:16:37  <TrueBrain> bandwidth is the only issue really
15:16:43  <TrueBrain> (yours, not ours :P)
15:16:43  <cornishpasty> Charge people for online storage!
15:17:02  <cornishpasty> You get 5MB free then £100/byte
15:17:11  <TrueBrain> as long as I am SysOp of OpenTTD, that will never happen
15:17:14  <TrueBrain> never ever
15:17:29  <cornishpasty> TrueBrain: good idea for next April 1 though
15:17:35  <TrueBrain> I agree
15:17:37  <TrueBrain> bit late
15:17:38  <TrueBrain> but
15:17:40  <TrueBrain> yes
15:17:41  <cornishpasty> NEXT TIME!
15:17:59  <cornishpasty> GADGET
15:18:02  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: what about my  per grf idea :P
15:18:11  <andythenorth> it would make somebody rich
15:18:13  <TrueBrain> me
15:18:15  <TrueBrain> but no
15:18:16  <TrueBrain> :P
15:18:20  <andythenorth> you own the store
15:18:26  <andythenorth> I get 30% less tax :(
15:18:45  <TrueBrain> the main issue with grfs, they are all so differently
15:18:50  <TrueBrain> there is not one golden file
15:19:07  <TrueBrain> when starting, the download counter was sufficient
15:19:12  <TrueBrain> but as people downlolad EVERYTHING, it is mute
15:19:44  <andythenorth> I proposed a reviewer system once, where you could 'see what pikka is playing' or whatever
15:20:00  <andythenorth> 'rate this combination' rather than 'rate this grf'
15:20:26  <andythenorth> rating grfs in isolation is nearly pointless
15:20:30  <TrueBrain> I guess I should open a topic about it, and hope for the same kind of replies as I got the last 48h on copyright stuff
15:20:36  <TrueBrain> it really is, yes
15:20:36  <andythenorth> indeed
15:20:48  * andythenorth will put on 'filter out stupid idea glasses'
15:20:55  * andythenorth is a low patience person
15:20:58  <TrueBrain> I kinda like my idea of online profiles, that might be useful
15:21:00  <TrueBrain> to share, mostly
15:21:13  <andythenorth> 'my favourite grfs'
15:21:17  <TrueBrain> but so yeah .. BaNaNaS need a strong redesign, in concept more than code :)
15:21:19  <andythenorth> just link to twitter
15:21:29  <andythenorth> tweet my grf combination
15:21:35  <andythenorth> (as a hash)
15:21:40  <TrueBrain> its not the worst idea
15:21:55  <TrueBrain> gives a lot of fuzz to all his followers
15:22:03  <TrueBrain> they might click it
15:22:11  <TrueBrain> kinda like the idea :)
15:22:17  <andythenorth> could just extend bananas so you get a profile even if not a content author
15:22:30  <andythenorth> for posting reviews, combinations, upload your savegame
15:22:31  <andythenorth> etc
15:22:34  <TrueBrain> yeah, that is what I was thinking about
15:22:46  <TrueBrain> as that goes in side with some old idea of allowing authentication for the client
15:22:54  <TrueBrain> in regards of joining servers which wants some kind of filtering
15:22:58  <andythenorth> +1
15:23:07  <TrueBrain> but that is a lot of work involved :D
15:23:11  <andythenorth> yes
15:23:20  <andythenorth> we build those kind of apps
15:23:26  <TrueBrain> there once was also a planned rewrite for the MS, to allow more information
15:23:29  <andythenorth> some of them, we don't build anymore, too much work
15:23:34  <TrueBrain> but as nobody replied on Rbs topic, he never implemented it :(
15:23:38  <andythenorth> :P
15:23:50  <TrueBrain> people tend to forget developers need praise from time to time
15:23:58  <TrueBrain> (for allt he right reasons)
15:24:07  <TrueBrain> too many feel OpenTTD is a given, and forget the effort involved :)
15:24:20  * TrueBrain brings up the  per grf idea again :P
15:24:25  <andythenorth> he
15:24:35  <andythenorth> charging for stuff brings expectations of service
15:24:52  <TrueBrain> I have no interest in charging money :)
15:25:09  <TrueBrain> interesting ideas are flowing from you andythenorth
15:25:14  <planetmaker> nah. A setup fee :-P
15:25:18  <TrueBrain> lets talk more when you have time, I am sure we can cook up something nice
15:25:24  <andythenorth> charity ware
15:25:29  <andythenorth> want to play?  donate to charity
15:25:38  <TrueBrain> atm I have sufficient stuff to write for OpenTTD; I might even bring myself doing it :P
15:25:50  <TrueBrain> (all web-software is 3+ years old ... its terrible!)
15:26:19  <andythenorth> he
15:26:24  *** Prof_Frink [~proffrink@94.13.8.180] has joined #openttd
15:26:25  <andythenorth> we're closing a 7 year old app this week
15:26:33  <TrueBrain> owh, I also still have to build a Jira test setup, so others can see how good Jira is for bug-tracker :P
15:26:38  <TrueBrain> cratz on that :D
15:26:45  <andythenorth> is Jira good?
15:26:49  <TrueBrain> it is
15:26:51  <andythenorth> I need to get off Trac at work
15:26:53  <andythenorth> I like redmine
15:27:00  <TrueBrain> Redmine is good only if you have 1 project
15:27:02  <andythenorth> and we have zendesk for customer support
15:27:07  <andythenorth> trac smells
15:27:10  <TrueBrain> it works terrible for multiproject overview
15:27:23  <andythenorth> not worse than trac :P
15:27:24  <TrueBrain> Jira is a very large commercial product, so there are a lot of things in and on it
15:27:29  <TrueBrain> but you can filter most things out pretty easily
15:27:42  <TrueBrain> so after the setup time, it lokos nice, works fast, and has tons of kewl features
15:27:55  <TrueBrain> I love the Agile support most I guess
15:28:10  <TrueBrain> Grann support, clear overviews and reports for the managers
15:28:18  <TrueBrain> and very cheap if you have < 10 users in your company
15:28:36  * andythenorth adds it to the list
15:28:42  <andythenorth> redmine is....ok
15:28:45  <andythenorth> best I can say
15:28:50  <TrueBrain> it ... works
15:28:55  <TrueBrain> we used it for a while
15:28:57  <andythenorth> anything is better than trac
15:29:04  <TrueBrain> but after a month of 6, it became so messy ...
15:29:11  <andythenorth> trac was once brilliant, but life moves on
15:29:13  <TrueBrain> trac is the most terrible product I have seen for that :P
15:29:38  <andythenorth> better than the one we wrote in house :P
15:29:47  <TrueBrain> I have to add, we just switched to Jira, so it might become an issue in the future
15:29:50  <TrueBrain> but so far .. omg :P
15:30:14  <andythenorth> is it hosted?  Or do you host yourself?
15:30:16  * andythenorth looks
15:30:19  <TrueBrain> host ourself
15:30:21  <TrueBrain> much cheaper
15:30:30  <TrueBrain> (10$ per month or 10$ a year, basically)
15:30:33  <TrueBrain> quick choice :D
15:30:50  <TrueBrain> make sure to also check Greenhopper and Bonfire
15:30:53  <andythenorth> hosting yourself is good if you have sysop on tap
15:31:06  <TrueBrain> I guess it is a good thing I am a sysop :D
15:31:31  <TrueBrain> other nice pieces of software to integrated in Jira: FishEye and Crucible
15:31:37  <TrueBrain> FishEye shows your SVN/git/hg in a nice way
15:31:42  <TrueBrain> Crucible alows patch reviewing
15:31:46  <andythenorth> ho
15:31:55  <TrueBrain> Bamboo OpenTTD uses for auto-compiling (also from the same people)
15:32:38  <andythenorth> thanks
15:33:08  <TrueBrain> and if you check who uses it ..... you understand why I talk about it this foundly

16:09:09  <TrueBrain> Zuu: hehe; I was heavily surprised someone wrote that :D
16:09:31  <TrueBrain> SCP is an AI/GS lib they wrote; something I once claimed nobody would ever do, so why implement it in the C++ side
16:10:05  <TrueBrain> so sometimes all it needs is 1 word: wow :D
16:11:54  <SAC> Okey!
16:12:15  <TrueBrain> either way: hi :) Glad you made it over here
16:13:16  <SAC> Thank you!  I've been here before - in different ways... ;p Anyway TrueBrain, not to confuse too much, but should we focus on the BaNaNaS Suggestion thread rather than the copright one?
16:13:26  <TrueBrain> yes please :)
16:13:31  <TrueBrain> first off, I have to say, I am happy you are open for dialog; often I see people who are against something, are against it for no reason and just keep bashing over and over and over. It is refreshing for me you are not one of those people. It has to be said :D
16:14:03  <TrueBrain> As far as copyright goes, I think all has been said and done. A learning experience for all, lets call it, and leave it at that :)
16:14:09  <SAC> Well, I may have different opinions in matters, but that doesn't mean I can't see the bigger picture...
16:14:46  <TrueBrain> so, BaNaNaS
16:15:00  <SAC> We cannot afford to have these arguings over and over again, as the only result is that people will loose interest in the game overall...
16:15:16  <TrueBrain> true words; happens a lot, sadly :(
16:15:37  <TrueBrain> so, lets get constructive: can you elaborate on your upload issue with BaNaNaS?
16:15:48  <TrueBrain> I have always been curious about this, but never the means to ask :D
16:16:29  <SAC> Yes BaNaNaS, I'm writing something that may reflect my point of views, concerning not only the BaNaNaS but the community as a whole.  If we're going to make a change it needs to be reflected within the entore community...
16:16:43  <SAC> "entire"
16:17:23  <SAC> ...and along with this we're dsicussing the subject also over at Simuscape, both in public members section and inside the admins section...
16:17:50  <TrueBrain> discussion is good; as long as people are open and acceptance to others opinions, it can only lead to better things :)
16:18:47  <TrueBrain> (PS: did you know simuscape looks a lot like simutrans; any relation between the two, or just pure luck?)
16:19:00  <SAC> Well, that's the purpose!  Be we ALL need to participate one way or another for this to work out properly in the end... Doing things half way through measn we're soon back on square One again...
16:19:01  <TrueBrain> (the name, ofc)
16:19:17  <TrueBrain> hehe; yes :)
16:19:25  <SAC> Pure luck eally!  I don't even play Simutrans... :)
16:19:59  <SAC> But I do like dark colors... ;p
16:20:02  <TrueBrain> I can of course only talk for myself, but as System Operator, you have my attention
16:20:56  <SAC> Yeah, but this isn't about me alone.  It's about all of us - although I may have misinterpreted you there...
16:20:58  <SAC> ;p
16:21:20  <TrueBrain> hehe; you did. I mean to say: I am open for dialog, but I am just a small part of OpenTTD

16:21:35  <TrueBrain> there is a lot done and said, I have no clue how others are towards this goal
16:21:36  <SAC> :)
16:21:56  <TrueBrain> I have been reading a lot of old posts today, and every time I keep reading misassumptions between people
16:22:09  <TrueBrain> you clearly see people colouring in how other people are, and acting upon that
16:22:16  <TrueBrain> I am the first to admit I am part of that problem
16:22:42  <TrueBrain> to take an example: when mb talks, I assume he is out to hurt someone. Then again, when he asks us/me something, he assumes we won't reply
16:22:53  <TrueBrain> the community is full of those back and forth assumptions and wrong-doing
16:22:53  <SAC> No, that's the problem... If we're going to succeed with this I also believe we need to straighten up some issues historically... Like for instance the one between me and Andythenorth which is plain stupid to begin with...
16:24:17  <SAC> MB has a special way of discussing things, and I'm sure his way of doing it - although not intentional - may cause people to be upset...
16:24:53  <SAC> As you said, a lot of theses issues bottles down to language barriers or similar...
16:25:04  <TrueBrain> yeah ... we have those issues even within the OpenTTD dev team :)
16:25:15  <TrueBrain> it is so hard to express yourself in another language when you feel deeply about something
16:25:17  <Sacro> zomg it's SAC ^_^
16:25:49  <SAC> True... it's very difficult... one way to at least overcome some of it are to use smilies... :)
16:26:00  <TrueBrain> but, I guess if we are serious about cleaning up 'this mess', we have to start somewhere
16:26:25  <TrueBrain> I tihnk the easiest approach is if we all just indicate what troubles us, so it can be talked about .. but I have no clue how that travels with others :)

16:26:38  <TrueBrain> I am the kind of person that just yells what annoys him, and mostly I get good feedback on that :D
16:26:40  <SAC> Absolutely
16:27:36  <SAC> For instance, it was suggested today at Simuscape today that no swearwords whatsoever should be allowed in any discussions - as one step towards a better and improved atmosphere...
16:27:46  <TrueBrain> I have to admit, only when I took your smilies seriously, your posts weren't as bad as I initially read them :D
16:27:55  <TrueBrain> that is a fair suggestion
16:28:11  <SAC> This may sound trivial but in the end it will have an impact...
16:28:36  <TrueBrain> showing mutual respect is also something to remember; it is easy to assume the other means bad, but if we start to think the other means well, it becomes easier
16:28:49  <SAC> True as well...
16:29:02  <TrueBrain> something simple: today you replied to me: "wrong again", where it was the first time I replied to you
16:29:06  <TrueBrain> at first, it made me go: GRRRR
16:29:14  <TrueBrain> then I realised: you had to take the (sorry for my wording) shit of others first
16:29:19  <TrueBrain> so it is logic from your point of view
16:29:31  <SAC> I admit I could have used a better word - and believe me, I was aware of it to start with
16:29:54  <TrueBrain> so I guess if we all step in the assumption the other doesn't mean bad, it is easier to talk to one-another
16:30:02  <TrueBrain> it is only very hard to do that, for a community as a whole :D
16:30:16  <SAC> Yes that and using the kinder word when we address things...
16:30:42  <TrueBrain> so, I like to be concrete (As you might have noticed), lets just try tackling some issues there are
16:30:52  <TrueBrain> let me bite in a big one: why do you feel the need for a simuscape commuity?
16:31:06  <SAC> Okey, give me a moment to respond...
16:31:23  <TrueBrain> (feel free to say you don't want to talk about it at this stage or what ever; I am a very curious person and just blur those things out there :P)
16:31:50  <SAC> Not to worry, I prefer people who are brutally honest - and curious... ;p
16:32:23  * andythenorth has a comment to make about tt-forums community, but will wait for right moment
16:32:33  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: we all have :P

16:32:55  <SAC> First of, Simuscape has always been there. It's not my first site, but when I closed down the others I had in mind to open up Simuscape...
16:34:07  <SAC> 2nd of all, with all the arguings over at TT-forums, which I was part of myself at times - just ask Andy ;p - I felt an urge to have my own place without the disturbance of conflicts...
16:34:29  <TrueBrain> haha, I can relate to that issue :D
16:34:44  <SAC> And quite frankly, I'm of the opinion that the more the merrier...
16:35:12  <TrueBrain> well, let me explain a bit why I ask; I am of the opinion that condensing information is always for the better
16:35:17  <TrueBrain> having 1000 places information is available, I dislike
16:35:22  <TrueBrain> you see that in all my work for OpenTTD
16:35:30  <TrueBrain> all services I created, are there to bring people close together
16:35:48  <TrueBrain> so for me, having several forums is annoying; it doesn't mean I don't see the need for them, nor that I disaprove
16:36:01  <TrueBrain> it just makes me wonder: so .. why does he feel the need to go there :)
16:36:05  * andythenorth has to go wrangle toddlers and babies, biab

16:36:31  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: after joining Simuscape I read what had happened to Leanden, which you are probably not aware of, wrt a grf drama
16:36:32  <SAC> I'm actually addressing this in my respond over at TT-forums - partially at least... (not posted yet)
16:36:41  <andythenorth> and it annoyed me that Leanden felt the need to leave tt-forums
16:36:46  <TrueBrain> andythenorth:  ingeneral you can assume I am not up-to-date about drama :P

16:37:04  <TrueBrain> SAC: good; as I am very interested to know :)
16:37:06  <andythenorth> Leanden forked a grf at my recommendation, due to stupidity by the so-called 'community' building it
16:37:15  <andythenorth> he then got driven off the forums in a bout of stupid drama
16:37:47  <andythenorth> the people who drove him out are not people who create things mostly, but rather back-seat drive and somewhat bully, or just ask stupid questions
16:37:47  <TrueBrain> so he got punished for doing something you both considered good?
16:37:53  <andythenorth> effectively yes
16:38:02  <TrueBrain> ugh; horrifying
16:38:10  <andythenorth> then more sensible people jumped on him for going somewhere else and doing closed-doors development
16:38:10  <SAC> I agree
16:38:22  <TrueBrain> and so the balls rolls and rolls
16:38:26  <SAC> If I may say something here...
16:38:31  *** blathijs [matthijs@drsnuggles.stderr.nl] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
16:38:36  <TrueBrain> please do :)
16:39:48  <SAC> It's very important to realize that Simuscape isn't an enemy site to TT-forums. On the contrary, Simuscape focus on graphics development to 99%, while TT-forums handles graphics as well, but is more for the OTTD development part...
16:40:28  <andythenorth> I would raise that with orudge :)
16:40:38  <SAC> And to sort of reply to your comment yesterday Andythenorth, the Artists Guild does not provide any files at all... It's a workshop... ;p
16:40:52  <andythenorth> k
16:40:58  <TrueBrain> if I understand you correctly, and do correct me if I was wrong, basically you want your own corner on the internet where not every troll comments on things they don't know about?
16:41:32  <TrueBrain> (and yes, tt-forums has trolls, sufficient to fill a house full)

16:42:13  <andythenorth> they don't always know they're trolling :P
16:42:20  <TrueBrain> which makes it worse :D
16:42:33  <andythenorth> by the nature of the game we attract people a certain approach to social matters :P
16:42:39  <SAC> Sort of... Some of us feel the need to be able to create and develop stuff in a more private area where a few other artists are located... This does miracle to creativity... And when we feel the need, we publish tidbits inside the Visual Studio
16:42:59  <TrueBrain> I respect that, and can't blame you for it
16:43:16  <SAC> As some may think... ;p  Getting praised is NOT what I'm after... that doesn't add to the creativity at all...
16:43:33  <TrueBrain> yesterday I did think you were ;)
16:43:33  <andythenorth> SAC: private / safe area makes sense.  This naturally creates some friction with those of us who prefer everything to be open, but it makes sense
16:43:41  <TrueBrain> for that I do appoligize, but it had all appearances :)
16:44:08  <SAC> There are lots of things being developed within the Artists Guild, and thanks to the Guild actually...
16:44:34  <TrueBrain> to give you a bit of an idea of community from my side:
16:44:36  <andythenorth> if there must be two places (and it appears there must), they should co-exist
16:44:42  <TrueBrain> Developers of OpenTTD used to talk in #openttd about anything
16:44:53  <TrueBrain> then the trolls came (no disrespect to anyone, just want to point out how they feel)
16:45:00  <TrueBrain> people who comments on everything, with or without knowledge
16:45:06  <SAC> Andythenorth, I'm addressing this as well... I totally agree... :)
16:45:06  <andythenorth> me!
16:45:08  <TrueBrain> it forced us to go in our own secret channel, hiding
16:45:24  <TrueBrain> I never really liked this move, even so I caused the move
16:45:34  <TrueBrain> I always liked we could talk development in this channel, for everyone to comment
16:45:37  <TrueBrain> the community grew too big
16:45:41  <TrueBrain> and .. well .. here we are :P
16:45:49  <andythenorth> we are where we are
16:45:59  <TrueBrain> how I preceive your story, you went through the same stages basically
16:45:59  <andythenorth> things I am uncomfortable with:
16:46:42  <andythenorth> (1) that simuscape is seen as a rejection of tt-forums - and a move there is seen as political, which is nonsense
16:47:06  <SAC> There will always be "trolls". The important thing is how we address them from all sides... :)
16:47:19  <TrueBrain> SAC: very true, and good point
16:47:24  <andythenorth> (2) typing while holding babies.  that is uncomfortable :P
16:47:35  <SAC> 1) In parts it is of course, but I want to change that
16:47:47  <SAC> 2) Very muchsooo :)
16:47:53  <TrueBrain> no experience with it, sry :P
16:47:56  <SAC> be right back...
16:47:59  <TrueBrain> tend to keep it that way :D
16:48:00  <andythenorth> (1) ss is just an alternative choice

16:50:58  <TrueBrain> I asusme simscape does publish grfs, but you can only download them if you registered?
16:51:07  <SAC> Hmmm
16:51:09  <SAC> :)
16:51:19  <TrueBrain> (given Public Area gives me 1 topic :P)
16:51:34  <TrueBrain> not judging btw, just curious how your mindset is regarding simuscape :)
16:52:17  <TrueBrain> owh, that is a subforum
16:52:19  <TrueBrain> ah
16:52:34  <TrueBrain> INFRA is available there I see
16:52:39  <SAC> Yes, we do have a registration requirement along with a first post.  This is mainly to prevent spambots to get inside, and we have been succesful there... I do have to delete accounts on a daily basis though...
16:52:53  <TrueBrain> ugh, I hate spambots :)
16:53:05  <SAC> ...but they never make it into the sections...
16:53:34  <TrueBrain> other random: why make closed source graphics?
16:53:40  <TrueBrain> purely curious, again :)
16:54:04  <SAC> Not sure what you mean by that?
16:54:16  <TrueBrain> euhm, I work for .. 10+ years in open source world now
16:54:22  *** Belugas [~belugas@216.191.111.230] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
16:54:22  <SAC> Ahhh
16:54:25  <TrueBrain> my mindset is totally brainwashed, and I want to make as much as possible open source
16:54:31  <TrueBrain> but grf authors always tend to keep it closed source
16:54:42  <TrueBrain> (exceptions there)
16:54:59  <TrueBrain> I never manage to speak to someone who is honest enough to give me an answer :D
16:55:45  <SAC> In all honesty I've had custom files stolen on many occassions in the past... TTDLX isn't my first game community, but even there I've had stuff finding its way out to the public... stolen trees for instance...  and new trees...
16:55:46  * andythenorth is confused by this too
16:56:07  <TrueBrain> but can't they steal from your closed source too?
16:56:20  <SAC> I think it bottles down to the way I personally look at my work..
16:56:24  <SAC> Sure they can..
16:56:24  <andythenorth> 'openness' (or lack of) is probably the biggest thing that I get frustrated about :P
16:56:27  <TrueBrain> (it btw horrifies me that people steal from others, even without credits ... like .. wtf?!)

16:56:48  <TrueBrain> okay, honest answer, I like that; tnx :D
16:57:06  <andythenorth> I might leave, or get bored, or die, and my work is gone
16:57:10  <TrueBrain> for me too it is really hard to think in closed source, but that is a problem on my side, not on SAC's in this case :)
16:57:23  <andythenorth> moi aussi
16:57:25  <TrueBrain> one truth is not better than the other :D
16:57:31  <andythenorth> +0.8 :P
16:57:35  <TrueBrain> hihi :)
16:57:53  <TrueBrain> sorry for the random Qs, I am just so happy I can ask them :)
16:57:55  <SAC> I think that when my work reaches a wider audience I may view this differently...
16:58:18  <andythenorth> I really like seeing my sprites appear in other sets
16:58:29  <andythenorth> and knowing that my grfs might live on beyond me being interested in them
16:58:34  <SAC> True
16:59:04  <TrueBrain> to some more interesting topic (for me, I am a webdesigner :P): you stated that you wanted to be able to delete your older grfs;now there is a bit of confusion about what you mean exactly, so let me put it bluntly:
16:59:16  <TrueBrain> 1) you want to remove older grfs and break older savegames
16:59:22  <TrueBrain> 2) you want to avoid people to download your grf for new games
16:59:31  <TrueBrain> (for which ever reasons they may come)
16:59:54  <TrueBrain> which applies? :D
16:59:57  <SAC> 1. Now that I understand how the content service works, I know better
17:00:33  <SAC> 2. I'm addressing this entire BaNaNaS issue in my upcoming response...
17:00:40  <TrueBrain> hehe
17:00:51  <TrueBrain> basically, 2 is fixable
17:00:56  <TrueBrain> I can add a button for it, not a big deal
17:01:06  <TrueBrain> 1) is directly against the philosophy we base OpenTTD on
17:01:17  <SAC> My position is that the BaNaNaS is the best suited place for a centralized download location...
17:01:21  <TrueBrain> not a bad thing if it would collide, but interesting for me :)
17:01:35  <TrueBrain> I am happy to hear that
17:01:50  <SAC> Both for ingame downloads and direct downloads
17:01:55  <TrueBrain> I guess my only question would be: what do we need to change for you to upload on it?
17:02:21  <TrueBrain> and/or, would there be any need to extend it in the way Dave suggested
17:02:29  <SAC> I think I can address this better in a reply to that thread... :)
17:02:34  <TrueBrain> fair enough
17:02:36  <TrueBrain> :D
17:02:45  <TrueBrain> I WANT ANSWERS! :P
17:03:09  <SAC> You'll get answers...
17:03:11  <TrueBrain> (FYI, I am not a serious person; it takes me effort to refrain myself from joking and torlling :P)
17:03:22  <SAC> :)
17:03:33  <SAC> Andy? Still here?
17:03:36  <andythenorth> yup
17:04:18  <SAC> We need to clear up that whole incident in the past! Once and for all!  From my point of view I believe it was a misunderstanding...
17:04:23  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: which bit of the "bananas doesn't have a web interface" do I miss?
17:04:35  <andythenorth> I see a web interface, just a bad one :P
17:04:48  <andythenorth> SAC: it was a language issue
17:04:58  <andythenorth> and then it was compounded because idiots jumped into the thread
17:05:04  <SAC> And I could most certainly have responded in a way better manner!
17:05:08  <andythenorth> it would have gone away on its own via rational discussion
17:05:23  <TrueBrain> awh, look at you two, being cute and all
17:05:30  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: you stand need to talk :P
17:05:39  <andythenorth> today has been cuddly TrueBrain
17:05:57  <TrueBrain> now you two give eachother a hug, and lets continue onwards :)
17:06:14  <SAC> Absolutely, but to be brutally honest Andy, what upset you back then?  And what could I have done better?
17:06:14  * andythenorth is a bit on the spectrum and doesn't do physical touching :P
17:06:40  <andythenorth> SAC: credit the grfs you lifted stuff from, be clear you weren't going to release the graphics
17:07:02  <andythenorth> beyond that, the drama was added by other people, who inflated it incorrectly into all kinds of wrong
17:07:34  <SAC> Okey Thanks!  I apologize for that - although I need to point out I wasn't going to use any of it other than just showing George something
17:07:46  <andythenorth> stuff (not from you) like (paraphrase) "all this licensing stuff is just crap" basically completely devalues things like GPL
17:07:59  <SAC> But I could indeed have checked the original author rather then requesting others to do it!
17:08:07  <andythenorth> I want to be very open, you want to be very closed, both are based on clear licensing and attribution
17:08:53  <SAC> Well, I do apologize though...
17:08:55  <SAC> :)
17:09:06  <andythenorth> thanks, I'm sorry it got heated
17:09:30  * TrueBrain brings the flowers
17:09:33  <SAC> Yeah, but as you said, the ones interfering didn't help out
17:09:43  <SAC> On the contrary...
17:09:51  <andythenorth> they never do, and it's usually the same people
17:09:56  <andythenorth> and they are not people who make things
17:10:03  <SAC> Very true... soo very true
17:10:06  <TrueBrain> maybe a question without answer: what can we (as moderators?) do to prevent these situations where others inflict?

17:10:31  <andythenorth> not sure yet
17:10:35  <TrueBrain> on the internet, everyone knows better; but sure it should be possible to form a culture to prevent it?
17:10:37  <SAC> TrueBrain, I'm addressing this too!  I think we need to have a similar approach on all sides...
17:10:41  <andythenorth> there is one mod who sadly inflames as much as helps :(
17:11:18  <TrueBrain> and andythenorth, BaNaNaS does have a frontpage, albeit terrible
17:11:24  <andythenorth> yup
17:11:29  <andythenorth> and page per content type
17:11:30  <TrueBrain> it used to be purely view, it had to be extended to allow download
17:11:39  <andythenorth> I tried improving it, but no dev environment :P
17:11:52  <TrueBrain> it went from just showing what happened in a system, to a functional site .. terrible
17:11:59  <SAC> Not to sound negative towards TT-forums, but I think admins, mods and devs needs to be more active in terms of preventing people from attacking each others
17:12:07  <TrueBrain> and I am to blame in that, I never took much interest in improving it
17:12:16  <TrueBrain> SAC: I 100% agree with you
17:12:22  <TrueBrain> but it is hard, and mostly boring
17:12:34  <andythenorth> the lego forum I hang out on is much better for that, (has to be as kids use it).  No backseat driving, no swearing, no arguments, no trolls
17:12:35  *** blathijs [matthijs@drsnuggles.stderr.nl] has joined #openttd
17:12:39  <TrueBrain> the cultural aspect also plays: what is a troll for you, might be normal for me
17:12:39  <Terkhen> hello
17:12:42  <andythenorth> brb, poo incident
17:12:54  <TrueBrain> I just love andythenorth and his babies :P
17:13:09  <SAC> And to be honest, I feel that there is a bunch of people over there who have somehow gained a bit more freedom in doing so than others - which is really bad...
17:13:19  <TrueBrain> hehe; yes
17:13:31  <TrueBrain> but moderation is not a black and white thing
17:13:36  <SAC> True
17:13:42  <TrueBrain> sometimes you also need to give a bit to allow conversations to continue
17:13:55  <TrueBrain> silly example maybe, but "the thread" of this weekend, was said to be doomed and end in a flamewar
17:14:03  <TrueBrain> now look at us, being all civalised and all
17:14:08  <Terkhen> I don't have much to add to your discussion but I just want to say I'm quite happy that it is happening :)
17:14:42  <TrueBrain> in general, moderation is hard .. its easy for small communities
17:14:44  <TrueBrain> but as things grow
17:14:44  <andythenorth> resolved (smelt of yoghurt)
17:14:46  <TrueBrain>  .....
17:15:12  <SAC> And for what it's worth, also in here we need to respect others... I may not ba active here, but I've been updated from time to time... ;p  Just saying...
17:15:14  <SAC> :)
17:15:21  <TrueBrain> which also leaves me in a very ... double state. On one hand I think simuscape is a good thing, for people who are serious to 'hide' from the rest
17:15:33  <andythenorth> what is trolling in some places is standard behaviour in open source dev communities (the "tl;dr" type of approach)
17:15:34  <TrueBrain> like developers do on IRC
17:15:42  <TrueBrain> on the other hand ... its sad that it is required
17:15:59  <andythenorth> it is good that it exists; it is bad that some people feel driven there
17:16:00  <TrueBrain> SAC: spies are everywhere :D (I have played too much EVE Online)
17:16:07  <SAC> :9
17:16:09  <SAC> :9
17:16:10  <SAC> .)
17:16:14  <TrueBrain> keep trying
17:16:15  <SAC> :)
17:16:20  <TrueBrain> :D
17:16:49  <TrueBrain> all joking aside, the climate has to shift
17:16:56  <SAC> Absolutely
17:16:58  <TrueBrain> I often don't reply to threads, as people will drop over me like a banana
17:17:04  <andythenorth> stuff like 'please search' and "don't double post" is valid community management
17:17:31  * andythenorth feels absolutely no guilt for bullying the BROS 'team'
17:18:11  <SAC> And for me personally I'd like to address people who has problems with me - simply to sort things out once and for all...
17:18:20  <SAC> So Terkhen...
17:18:22  * andythenorth however also found a very bad thread in 'off-topic' about BROS, and was pretty disgusted by it
17:18:22  <SAC> :)
17:18:23  <TrueBrain> I think that is a very valid and noble quest
17:18:50  <SAC> Bring it on...
17:19:16  <TrueBrain> what made you turn around lke this? (sorry if it is a in-the-face question, but agian: I am a curious person)
17:19:25  <SAC> Asking me?
17:19:27  <TrueBrain> yes
17:19:29  <NGC3982> this is giving me a serious headache
17:19:29  <TrueBrain> to explain
17:19:38  <TrueBrain> it seemed you were driving away from tt-forums
17:19:39  <NGC3982> utorrent simply doesnt write from cache to disc
17:19:42  <TrueBrain> and now you drive back here
17:19:45  <NGC3982> and it makes me crazy :(
17:19:50  <TrueBrain> why? Or better: how can we get others to do the same?
17:19:57  <TrueBrain> NGC3982: sstt now :P
17:20:03  <SAC> I never left TT-forums. I only moved my work...
17:20:14  <TrueBrain> as I noticed :D (for the positive)
17:20:14  <andythenorth> SAC you are your work :P
17:20:36  <NGC3982> TrueBrain: sst?
17:20:40  <TrueBrain> okay, maybe I should put it differently, as I understand the question is vague at best
17:20:42  <SAC> But I'm seriously tired of all the arguings over and over again...
17:20:53  <TrueBrain> take a person like ... hmm, the name with an L?

17:21:09  <TrueBrain> (again)
17:21:10  <SAC> ...and that they never seems to be addressed properly so we can solve them
17:21:20  <andythenorth> ^ found that via Simuscape
17:21:29  <TrueBrain> SAC: seriously, I started this conversation with it, but this highroad you take, I have a lot of respect for you taking it
17:21:32  <andythenorth> If I'd found it earlier I would have back-seat moderated
17:21:40  <TrueBrain> it takes balls (excuse my french), and shows character
17:21:50  <SAC> Andythenorth, I dislike it too
17:22:25  <andythenorth> I can disambiguate and negotiate between two groups of people who make things: one 'open' and one 'closed'
17:22:31  <SAC> I wouldn't say that TrueBrain... We're all here for the same purpose, but if we want our community to survive and develop further, we need to find a solution
17:22:31  <andythenorth> but that thread is full of idiots
17:22:49  <SAC> :9
17:22:51  <SAC> .)
17:22:54  <SAC> :)
17:23:00  <TrueBrain> SAC: take the compliment ffs :P :D
17:23:05  <TrueBrain> but yes, you are very correct
17:23:15  <SAC> Sure... Okey... :)
17:23:17  <andythenorth> the idiots have conflated 'development focussed communities often have robust discourse' with 'it is ok to be a dickhead'
17:23:57  <TrueBrain> is part of the problem that people have no space they can indicate they feel being wrong-done?
17:23:57  <Terkhen> SAC: if you are asking me if I have any problems with you... I only truly followed this weekend discussion as I felt that it affected the openttd team as a whole, and I can see that it is now going through the right path
17:24:13  <andythenorth> if only MB would join us here too ;)
17:24:26  <Terkhen> so as I said I can't add much to the discussion :P
17:24:29  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: I can only hope he would be as open as we all now try to be
17:25:00  <SAC> I was asking you Terkhen based on what I've seen you saying in this chat... Not to argue, but to solve... :)
17:25:42  <SAC> I am far from perfect, but one can only learn and improve if given the right instruments - and constructive critisism
17:25:53  <SAC> above all
17:26:07  <Terkhen> ok :)
17:26:50  <SAC> brb... need to visit the bathroom... :)
17:26:55  <TrueBrain> tmi
17:27:58  <TrueBrain>  I think a problem was that in "the thread" one misunderstanding above the other was stacked, to create a lot of confusion and weirdness; but that is now all water on the bridge as far as I care/consider :)
17:28:00  * andythenorth has replied to that insane thread
17:28:16  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: you know Hyronymus is a moderator?
17:28:23  <TrueBrain> well aware; why?
17:28:36  <andythenorth> and yet I think there would be a statistically valid correlation between threads he is moderating, and drama
17:28:47  <andythenorth> guess I should talk to orudge
17:28:54  *** blathijs [matthijs@drsnuggles.stderr.nl] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
17:29:02  <TrueBrain> don't be quick to judge: he is sent (by us mostly) to threads we think are out of control
17:29:06  <andythenorth> k
17:29:11  <andythenorth> I have been slow to judge
17:29:15  <TrueBrain> he, to me, is always the one that is more calm then we are :P
17:29:18  <andythenorth> I have formed my opinion on results :P
17:29:34  <andythenorth> also correlation may not be causation
17:29:35  <SAC> Good point in that thread Andythenorth... I totally agree
17:29:40  <andythenorth> firemen are always present at fires :P
17:29:43  <TrueBrain> andythenorth:  I was writing those words! Dammit :P
17:29:50  <TrueBrain> but that is what I mean, yes
17:29:59  <andythenorth> when I was small, I thought firemen came to light fires.  Fire engines terrified me
17:30:05  <TrueBrain> when I am about to inflame on someone, I PM Hyro if he can take a look
17:30:15  <TrueBrain> he mostly replies very calm: nothing going on, you overreacted (in kind words)
17:30:19  <andythenorth> ho
17:31:03  <TrueBrain> basically what you just said in my mind: a moderator is always in a thread with drama
17:31:09  <TrueBrain> which indeed is: a firemen is always present at fires :)
17:31:22  <andythenorth> valid inductive reasoning: firemen start fires
17:31:28  <TrueBrain> yup
17:31:33  <TrueBrain> causality is a tricky thing :P
17:31:43  <TrueBrain> but then again, I rarely have any real interest in what goes on on the forums outside the constructive replies
17:31:52  <TrueBrain> I stop reading threads very very quickly
17:32:03  <Terkhen> hmm... that thread is quite sad indeed
17:32:03  <SAC> Well, I need to leave you - for now - so I can continue to write my response... :)  Thanks for being brutally honest with me... :)
17:32:12  <andythenorth> bye SAC
17:32:14  <TrueBrain> and tnx for joining
17:32:19  <andythenorth> come back
17:32:19  <SAC> :)
17:32:21  <Terkhen> see you SAC
17:32:24  <SAC> I will!
17:32:24  <andythenorth> dialogue is constructive
17:32:28  <TrueBrain> indeed, come back (under your own name etc)
17:32:35  <TrueBrain> :D
17:32:36  <SAC> It is!
17:32:41  <SAC> SAC I mean...
17:32:45  <NGC3982> < TrueBrain> causality is a tricky thing
17:32:46  <TrueBrain> when people talk, the world is not as bad as it appears :D
17:32:50  <SAC> I may need to create an account possibly
17:32:57  <TrueBrain> please do
17:33:00  <NGC3982> of course it isnt. its just like birds and feathers
17:33:04  <NGC3982> no pun intended.
17:33:10  <SAC> Cya later!  :)
17:33:14  <TrueBrain> ciao
17:33:55  * NGC3982 paul valery causality quotes doesnt come trough
17:33:56  <TrueBrain> and sorry NGC3982, but we were talking stuff, and you came blabbing random stuff in between :P That is why I said: ssttt
17:34:13  <TrueBrain> I know this channel is rarely ontopic, but we needed it now :D
17:34:18  <NGC3982> TrueBrain: ah, you mean: "shh". ssttt is a telescope, afaik.
17:34:24  <TrueBrain> ssttt is dutch

17:36:32  <NGC3982> the thing is, this channel is the most serious channel (besides #QED and stuff).
17:36:47  <andythenorth> NGC3982: if you're feeling overly-serious, try #tycoon
17:36:49  <NGC3982> a part of me wishes to break that with lame english and farts
17:36:55  <andythenorth> #tycoon is, afaict, bollocks
17:36:58  <NGC3982> a part of me also wishes i was one of you.
17:36:59  <NGC3982> :(
17:37:03  <NGC3982> andythenorth: oh, jeez
17:37:08  <TrueBrain> owh, the days this channel was 90% OpenTTD
17:37:11  <TrueBrain> I do miss those :P
17:37:18  <TrueBrain> then again, we only had 30 people in those days
17:37:18  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: this channel is 90% me now
17:37:29  * NGC3982 feels responsible
17:37:41  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: it is; for a while it had been 90% nothing
17:37:43  <TrueBrain> which was even more boring
17:38:05  <andythenorth> Terkhen: so yes that thread is very stupid.  And it irritates me.
17:38:21  <andythenorth> reading between the lines at Simuscape, the forums are now seen as 'dominated by openttd'
17:38:35  <andythenorth> and so the attitude is seen as 'the one of the openttd developers'
17:38:46  <TrueBrain> I wish that was true; would be so much better :P
17:38:55  <andythenorth> it's a perception in some quarters :P
17:39:02  <andythenorth> and when people who have nothing to do with openttd act like fuckwits
17:39:07  *** Wolf01 [~wolf01@95.232.234.29] has joined #openttd
17:39:08  <TrueBrain> I can't get a decent conversation going on the forums without some troll
17:39:10  <andythenorth> it's seen as "ottd-like behaviour"
17:39:12  <Wolf01> evenink o/
17:39:16  <Terkhen> hi Wolf01
17:39:36  <NGC3982> im sorry, but "ottd-like behaviour" is actually a phrase i use sometimes
17:39:40  <andythenorth> :P
17:39:43  <andythenorth> wrt?
17:39:49  <Terkhen> andythenorth: I'm also afraid of posting in some debates just because I have a "OpenTTD developer" below my name
17:39:50  <TrueBrain> try playing Minecraft on public servers
17:39:53  <TrueBrain> terrifying
17:40:04  <andythenorth> ho I can imagine
17:40:07  <TrueBrain> Terkhen: I often solve that by starting: Personally, .....
17:40:08  <NGC3982> when describing what kind of people who built this monster of code and logic.
17:40:18  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: basically YT, but with bricks?
17:40:27  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: haha, yes
17:40:35  <andythenorth> it's great
17:40:36  <Terkhen> some opinions that could be considered "normal" will be flamed if they come from what they perceive as an authority figure
17:40:50  <andythenorth> YT and minecraft public servers means we know where all the idiots are and what they're doing
17:40:54  <Terkhen> but I hardly consider myself that wrt the community itself
17:41:09  <TrueBrain> Terkhen: I fully understand your problem :)
17:41:14  <TrueBrain> I think all developers have it, one way or the other
17:41:22  <TrueBrain> you don't always want to reply with authority, as you don't always know
17:41:28  * andythenorth has deliberately avoiding gaining any kind of authority for that reason
17:41:28  <TrueBrain> yet any reply you make iwll be received as authority
17:41:55  * NGC3982 normally presents the openttd community as a pair of asberger savant non-working retards, and still make it sounds fantasticly fabulous.
17:41:55  <andythenorth> having commit rights to nml terrifies me quite enough :P
17:42:06  <andythenorth> NGC3982: approximately correct
17:42:17  <NGC3982> i find some stuff you make amazing
17:42:21  <NGC3982> like, the language
17:42:38  <NGC3982> i monitored some dutch guy having a discussion in industrial italian
17:43:16  <NGC3982> and here i am trying to look cool becuase i can say like four words in swahili.
17:44:12  <andythenorth> so it troubles me
17:44:17  <NGC3982> or PMs (not going to hilight and get ultra-flamed this time) ability to make fantastic contributions to a community like this, and still be awesome-pancake at astronomy.
17:44:26  *** blathijs [matthijs@drsnuggles.stderr.nl] has joined #openttd
17:44:33  <andythenorth> the attitudes that make open source work - robust discussion etc - are being confused with being a twat
17:44:41  <Terkhen> to mention an example of a discussion that happens a lot; I honestly think that GPL is the best way to go for community projects, but enforcing it (or any other license) hurts the community as other people can and will see things in a different light, and they should be allowed to contribute in the way they see fit
17:44:41  <andythenorth> and it hasn't been shut down enough
17:44:57  <NGC3982> andythenorth: well. most people on irc talk like me. as in: HI THERE MISTAR ANDEE :DDDD?????!!!one.
17:45:12  <andythenorth> NGC3982: I don't go on most of irc :P
17:45:16  <Terkhen> but if I, as an openttd developer, mention that in a thread, it will be seen as an attempt to enforce something
17:45:16  <TrueBrain> Terkhen: yup; that is why we allow all licenses
17:45:20  <TrueBrain> dispite me not liking it :D
17:45:26  <Xaroth> NGC3982: most of IRC people deserve to be shot for that :P
17:45:30  <NGC3982> andythenorth: discussing as a calculator makes enormous effort on the projekt, but maybe not as much as a "first thing you react to when someone talks to you".
17:45:32  <TrueBrain> Terkhen: not if you describe it that way
17:45:37  <TrueBrain> that is, if they would, it is their problem
17:45:56  <Terkhen> TrueBrain: yes, but some people will use such a comment to add to the fire :)
17:45:57  <TrueBrain> you, even as developer, are entitled to your opinion; as long as you are open minded enough to listen to others
17:46:07  <andythenorth> NGC3982: do you hang out in many development channels?  Like #python or #php or #mysql or such? :)
17:46:14  <TrueBrain> sadly, many of my statements over the years have been (heavily) abused in one way or the other
17:46:18  <NGC3982> andythenorth: absolutely not.
17:46:19  <TrueBrain> often by cutting context, or even words
17:46:26  <andythenorth> NGC3982: pretty similar to here ;)
17:46:27  <TrueBrain> I have to admit, it made me post less
17:46:34  <andythenorth> hmm
17:46:35  <TrueBrain> so .... yes .. I feel your pain :)
17:46:40  * andythenorth has not had that problem at all, ever
17:46:42  <andythenorth> :o
17:46:42  <Terkhen> :)
17:47:00  <TrueBrain> also, that made me change my posts to: Personally, ....
17:47:07  <TrueBrain> it did get less by then
17:47:14  <NGC3982> andythenorth: my fifteen years with irc reeks with complete language poop.
17:47:42  <TrueBrain> on a totally non-related note: I am in this community 8 years and 3 months now
17:47:49  * andythenorth sometimes uses 'imho', which is completely lame and weak
17:47:54  <NGC3982> andythenorth: since im brought up with it that way. i almost never used it as a serious development tool, but more to hang out with hipsters and stuff.
17:48:05  <NGC3982> at least, im not in the 'lol' generation.
17:48:07  <Xaroth> TrueBrain: furniture :)
17:48:07  <andythenorth> also I should pay more attention, my two year old is emptying the bath onto the floor with a bucket
17:48:18  <NGC3982> andythenorth: neat.
17:48:18  <andythenorth> lol
17:48:18  <TrueBrain> pay attention to your children ffs
17:48:25  <Terkhen> TrueBrain: I feel old just because I have been here already for 4 years :P
17:48:27  <andythenorth> neglect makes them stronger
17:48:40  <TrueBrain> and .. calling cival services
17:48:44  <andythenorth> the problem is when the water reaches my laptop
17:49:00  <NGC3982> andythenorth: squash two birds in one go. have your son learn how a pirate lives while contributing to the community (by not caring and write some nml).
17:49:00  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: what is your address?
17:49:09  <TrueBrain> I need to know it to .... send you ... a postcard
17:49:10  <TrueBrain> I think
17:49:12  <TrueBrain> :P :D
17:49:46  <NGC3982> as a kid, i remember filling daddy's car seat with flower pot dirt i found.
17:49:56  <NGC3982> t'waz neat, i thought id grow a new car inside the car.
17:50:03  <TrueBrain> lolzzz
17:50:27  <andythenorth> while we're here, I can't make up my mind about MB
17:50:38  <andythenorth> mostly I like MB, he's witty in a way that others seem to miss
17:50:40  <NGC3982> Mario Brothers?
17:50:44  <andythenorth> but he was very badly behaved about bananas
17:51:01  <andythenorth> I would say water under the bridge, but it will happen again
17:51:14  <andythenorth> over some other issue
17:51:56  <TrueBrain> for his last .... defaming action, I kinda want an apoligy from him; you can do what ever you want in a community, but when you defame a corp in a legal takedown, you get on my bad side ... which is rather hard to get on tbfh
17:51:59  * NGC3982 has use of his gigabit for the first time.
17:53:07  <TrueBrain> but people keep telling me he was most likely not aware that his actions were in fact legal actions
17:53:22  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: in that case you have said the last word on it for me; he should apologise
17:53:36  <andythenorth> to not apologise shows a lack of decent respect for community norms
17:53:49  <NGC3982> 30MB/s sounds pretty reasonal for a normal USB2 external drive, right?
17:53:51  <TrueBrain> that he already showed by the assumption we would not process his claim
17:54:03  <andythenorth> well he did bad, but could make it better by apologising
17:54:09  <TrueBrain> I think he of all people has the most to do in regards of attitude change
17:54:10  <andythenorth> that is what we teach children anyway
17:54:32  <TrueBrain> he seems hardwired to assume we always mean bad; and I am sure we have our history to proof him that
17:54:41  <TrueBrain> but like SAC says: lets leave that behind us, and continue fresh
17:55:05  <andythenorth> tomorrow is another day
17:56:15  <Terkhen> andythenorth: I say that we should concentrate on the current problem and take care of any future ones when they happen (taking into account what happened before, of course ;) )
17:56:26  <andythenorth> +1
17:56:38  <andythenorth> more pressingly, how do I clean the floor? :P
17:56:45  <TrueBrain> licking?
17:57:07  <andythenorth> tis mostly water
17:57:10  <andythenorth> should be fine to lick
17:57:14  <TrueBrain> exactly
17:57:16  <TrueBrain> use your children

18:08:45  <frosch123> http://devs.openttd.org/~frosch/content2.png <- why are people using so stupid tags? it makes me feel working on that feature is totally useless
18:09:05  <andythenorth> which are stupid?
18:09:10  <Terkhen> "heightmap" heh
18:09:15  <frosch123> "heightmap"
18:09:29  <frosch123> half of the tags are author names
18:09:43  <andythenorth> of course ;)
18:10:03  <frosch123> if searching for an author is a useful thing, we could just add that to the search algorithm
18:10:09  <andythenorth> yup
18:10:12  <frosch123> but, putting it into the tags is silly
18:10:17  <andythenorth> union of all grfs I have my name on ;)
18:10:18  <Terkhen> frosch123: it's simpler to add the tag than to write a feature request :)
18:10:19  <andythenorth> etc
18:10:26  <andythenorth> tagging is open and messy
18:10:35  <andythenorth> and lets you identify categories you wish you'd thought of

18:12:18  <TrueBrain> I still feel dirty for doing
18:12:22  <andythenorth> if that's the worst you've done
18:12:25  <andythenorth> rating would be worse
18:12:28  <TrueBrain> it is so heavily abused, it is ... ugh
18:12:44  <TrueBrain> we really need a good review system for BaNaNaS
18:12:53  <Terkhen> TrueBrain: with regard to the original discussion for improving bananas... some linux distributions ask you to install a package that keeps track of what you install
18:12:57  <andythenorth> curation
18:13:12  <frosch123> Terkhen: i always answer "no" to that :p
18:13:15  <Terkhen> we could make OpenTTD ask you for permission for sending information about what you use in your games

18:14:17  <Terkhen> just: content x was used in y games
18:14:18  <frosch123> well, the difference is: people can download all content, but they cannot add everything to a single game
18:14:21  <Terkhen> but indeed, tricky :)

18:14:49  <TrueBrain> as long as we ask about it
18:14:53  <andythenorth> we wrote an extensive tracking framework for flash games when I was making them
18:14:56  <Terkhen> yes, I thought of it as a solution to the "download is not a good measure" problem
18:15:06  <Terkhen> just a random idea :)

18:55:28  <TrueBrain> life aint easy :P
18:56:07  <frosch123> make the subsection one in ottd green instead :p
18:56:16  <frosch123> might look horrible though :)
18:56:20  <andythenorth> yes
18:56:26  <andythenorth> green and orange are contrasting colours
18:56:34  <andythenorth> no designer would use them adjacent :D
18:56:43  <andythenorth> except the designer of ottd logo ;)
18:56:51  <frosch123> i like the ottd orange and green :)

18:59:25  <andythenorth> ho
18:59:40  <andythenorth> flat colour is better than gradients for these down states
18:59:54  <frosch123> the orange is too dark :)
18:59:56  <andythenorth> prize for the first one to admit that green and orange looks silly
18:59:56  <TrueBrain> isnt that a lot: in your face? :D
19:00:13  <TrueBrain> softer colours might help?

19:00:23  <frosch123> yes, too edgy comared to the rest

19:01:52  <andythenorth> v4 also not good http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/3071/site_selected_nav_4.png
19:02:28  <frosch123> i think the font in the navbar has too much weight (not sure about the term)
19:02:52  <frosch123> http://www.openttd.org/en/ <- a lot easier readable
19:02:53  <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/3072/site_selected_navbar_5.png
19:03:23  <andythenorth> it might be better to invert font colour for secondary nav

19:18:36  <TrueBrain> perfect reply frosch123, thank you :D
19:20:24  <SpComb> you clearly need to find some way to extend to OpenTTD GPL to loaded newgrfs
19:20:41  <TrueBrain> SpComb: we can modify it upon loading :P
19:20:46  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: v5, yes
19:21:00  <SpComb> loaded GRFs that use OpenTTD-specific features are obviously a derived work of the OpenTTD GPL code, since they wouldn't be of any use without OpenTTD
19:21:21  * SpComb read too much linux kernel module gpl stuff last week
19:21:28  <TrueBrain> a tool neer forces the license of the file processed by said tool
19:21:35  <TrueBrain> never
19:22:31  <TrueBrain> I completed my thread :D
19:22:35  <andythenorth> the main nav should be lighter
19:22:38  <andythenorth> or such
19:22:40  <andythenorth> hmm
19:24:04  <SpComb> TrueBrain: linus argued that LSM's are subject to kernel GPL since they're so integrated into kernel stuff
19:24:16  <SpComb> TrueBrain: "function pointers don't form a GPL boundary"
19:24:35  <TrueBrain> I disagree
19:24:39  <andythenorth> there's a GPL FAQ on it
19:24:48  <TrueBrain> that would make our world a lot harder, if that was true tbh
19:24:59  <andythenorth> newgrfs are almost certainly all GPL by being combined with a GPL program
19:25:08  <andythenorth> but meh
19:25:09  <TrueBrain> as example, you wouldn't be able to execute VB script in OOO if it was stored in docx

19:32:05  <andythenorth> I like the site
19:32:05  <Zuu> I and krinn had a chat on IRC about it and decided to have a go on it. :-)
19:32:13  <TrueBrain> Zuu: and I never liked the idea, but I am impressed you guys implemented it
19:32:26  <TrueBrain> SAC: time is an issue
19:32:38  <andythenorth> and there's no dev environment :P
19:32:42  <andythenorth> did I mention that? :P
19:32:44  <TrueBrain> basically, nobody has the knowledge/time/freedom to build a replacement
19:32:48  <TrueBrain> neither do I
19:32:52  <TrueBrain> so it never got done
19:32:57  <Zuu> Although krinn have made most of the low level work on the library. My role have been to test it, write documentation and try to find bugs. :-)
19:32:58  <TrueBrain> andythenorth is the only one who ever gave it a try
19:33:00  <SAC> I figured that too...
19:33:01  <__ln__> please do not create Skynet
19:33:03  <TrueBrain> failed horribly for all the obvious reasons :P
19:33:07  <andythenorth> I can try guessing by writing django templates, but then we have to put them live to test them :P
19:33:10  <TrueBrain> but andythenorth and I agree'd we are going to fix this, so :)
19:33:28  <TrueBrain> the topic is not a topic like: I ask you, and we discard it ;)
19:33:32  <TrueBrain> we will fix BaNaNaS
19:34:19  <andythenorth> pyramid app!
19:34:30  * andythenorth needs to learn a new python framework
19:34:31  <SAC> I'm thinking in terms of making the BaNaNaS a "central place" for downloads... Is it possible considering the time/knowledge/freedom?
19:34:40  <TrueBrain> yes
19:34:49  <andythenorth> yes
19:35:06  <SAC> What else is required?  Financial back-up?
19:35:08  <Xaroth> andythenorth: if it's django I can assist, if it's pyramid, I can not :P
19:35:09  <TrueBrain> basically, it has to be done; BaNaNaS is now 3.5 years old, and never really updated to new standards :P
19:35:14  <Xaroth> i cba to learn a new framework :P
19:35:26  <TrueBrain> SAC: lots of feedback
19:35:38  <andythenorth> Xaroth: it's ok, I can adapt.  Pyramid is not wildly differing to Django afaict
19:35:38  <TrueBrain> often this goes wrong, and I am left by my lonely self to come up with solutions
19:35:42  <TrueBrain> which is rather boring and dull
19:35:58  <Zuu> TrueBrain: I can understand there is a fear that two AIs will coop up. Ideally OpenTTD would provide a API for implementing all sort of goal systems, but then you would need to patch OpenTTD to support every goal idea that someone have. SCP allows AIs to be aware of goals that are not supported by the OpenTTD core API.
19:35:58  <SAC> TrueBrain, that of course...
19:36:28  <TrueBrain> Zuu: I understood that, and notice it was good :D
19:36:39  <TrueBrain> SAC: it is basically the most important thing: feedback
19:36:40  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: I think I need the repo for the website, or a zip of images :P
19:36:41  <SAC> I'd be interested to hear some of the other devs on this entire matter...
19:36:44  <TrueBrain> what would you want the system to do
19:37:05  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: did you fix my CSS already? :D :D
19:37:10  <andythenorth> no :(
19:37:16  <andythenorth> or we could just apply bootstrap
19:37:18  <Xaroth> then no images for you!
19:37:23  <Xaroth> andythenorth: <3!
19:37:32  <TrueBrain> SAC: in regards of the climate issues, you indeed should hear from other devs
19:37:37  <andythenorth> if we use bootstrap it will look like every other website made this year :D
19:37:40  <frosch123> Zuu: i would love ais teaming up, then you can also team up against them

19:39:11  *** jgh [~ashfasdf@cpc2-sgyl36-2-0-cust717.18-2.cable.virginmedia.com] has joined #openttd
19:39:13  <SAC> ;)  Still, let me know what may possibly bother you, and I'll address them and change what needs to be changed...
19:39:23  <SpComb> working on BaNaNas and Django sounds interesting, but not going to start on it because I have too much similar work of my own to take care of
19:39:44  <TrueBrain> I can poop out the Python part very fast, or at least, relative fast
19:39:54  <TrueBrain> its easy, and I am good at that
19:40:01  <TrueBrain> what I am not good at, is design, ideas, .....
19:40:04  <TrueBrain> I need people for that
19:40:06  <Terkhen> SAC: for gathering the opinion of more people (devs or not) with regard to the "community climate" IMO a forum thread is a better option
19:40:08  <andythenorth> django templates are just ${blah} right?
19:40:15  <Xaroth> SAC: I have no personal issues with you :)
19:40:16  <Xaroth> andythenorth: {{ }}
19:40:20  <Xaroth> {% %}
19:40:21  <TrueBrain> so SAC, please do post what you think BaNaNaS should do, in detail where possible :)
19:40:22  <frosch123> SAC: i never read the off-topic and barely read the grf development forum; so the bros thread andy pointed out was also interesting for me to learn about
19:40:28  <andythenorth> can I do {{method.call()}}
19:40:33  <Xaroth> no need for ()
19:40:42  <Xaroth> django will attempt to call if it's callable
19:40:45  <Xaroth> {{method}}
19:40:48  <andythenorth> the off-topic is a place I am not going back to
19:41:07  <SAC> LOL  I left the off-topic long ago...
19:41:14  <andythenorth> Xaroth: I'll have to learn pyramid another time then :P
19:41:21  <andythenorth> if we're committed to django
19:41:32  <andythenorth> maybe I'll write a pyramid app and ship it with BANDIT
19:41:39  <Terkhen> SAC: with regard to the bananas changes I can and will give feedback and opinions, but as TrueBrain said, it is "TrueBrain 's thing" :P
19:41:40  <andythenorth> for configuring the grf
19:41:41  <TrueBrain> We are committed to Django ;)
19:41:48  <Xaroth> :)
19:42:04  <andythenorth> "configure this grf in your browser at localhost:8700"
19:42:38  <andythenorth> currently the BANDIT admin in is in Zope, shipping Zope with the grf is...almost the definition of overkill :P
19:43:08  <SAC> Xaroth, okey... :)  As long as we're clear...
19:43:10  <TrueBrain> hmm, maybe I should make a nice topic explaining how our webservices work, what is required for any improvement, and where it goes 'wrong' if anything :)
19:43:29  *** kais58_ is now known as kais58
19:43:34  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: would be useful, you might get more contributors too
19:43:40  <andythenorth> currently it is...mysterious
19:43:43  <TrueBrain> yeah; if our service system wasn't so damn complex ...
19:43:52  <TrueBrain> there is so much shit going on ...... :D
19:43:58  <andythenorth> you should see the diagram of our ad network
19:44:03  <TrueBrain> OpenTTD has 15 VPSes at work for him
19:44:06  <Xaroth> if openttd's system op wasn't so damn complex
19:44:10  <TrueBrain> 5 of them are dedicated to compiling the binaries
19:44:12  <Xaroth> :P
19:44:12  <SAC> Thanks Terkhen for clearing that up... I annoy Truebrain instead... :)
19:44:16  <TrueBrain> the rest to service your day-to-day services :)
19:44:31  <Terkhen> no problem :)
19:44:46  <TrueBrain> 2 of them are proxies, one is a gateway, 2 are 'general' (LDAP + MySQL), the rest are dedicated servies
19:44:55  <TrueBrain> guess that shows a tiny bit with what I mean: complex :D
19:45:02  <SAC> brb
19:45:04  <Terkhen> but don't worry about asking questions
19:45:07  <Terkhen> bbl, time for dinner
19:45:25  <andythenorth> ach
19:45:29  <SpComb> TrueBrain: sounds like a puppet-sized problem!
19:45:33  <andythenorth> so I need to remake the css for v5 of the navbar
19:45:38  <andythenorth> but the navbars are all wrong :P
19:45:41  <frosch123> yay, at least it is already possible to edit tags
19:45:51  <michi_cc> SAC: Suggestion for simuscape: The FAQ button in the top row is like not visible at all, a tiny bit of contrast would do wonders there.
19:46:15  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: FIX IT! :D
19:46:49  <TrueBrain> on the positive side btw, because of this setup, stuff is contained .. if you break into mediawiki you do just that: break into mediawiki
19:46:52  <frosch123> hmm, i suppose starting a third bananas thread about tag usage is not useful?
19:46:52  <TrueBrain> no other service runs on it
19:47:05  <TrueBrain> frosch123: integrate it witht he other
19:47:09  <TrueBrain> as in: try to find a way to avoid the abuse
19:47:12  <TrueBrain> I like the Category idea
19:47:14  <NGC3982> goal!
19:47:19  <TrueBrain> just make a preset of tags available
19:47:26  <frosch123> TrueBrain: i really like to use tags instead of categories
19:47:36  <frosch123> but, the current tags are not suitable for that
19:47:39  <TrueBrain> then how do we control the abuse?
19:48:07  <frosch123> i think most tags are so stupid, because it is so hard to compare with other stuff
19:48:21  <TrueBrain> hehe
19:48:27  <TrueBrain> take it to a thread :D
19:48:45  <SAC> michi_cc, yes, it's been a subject also within Simuscape, so I'm bound to change it... My view on design isn't the same as many others... :P
19:48:52  <SpComb> TrueBrain: how do you handle distro updates/upgrades on all the different servers?
19:49:06  <TrueBrain> not? :P
19:49:08  <TrueBrain> all run debian
19:49:10  <TrueBrain> so it is easy
19:49:15  <SpComb> unattended-upgrades?
19:49:19  <TrueBrain> no
19:49:21  <Xaroth> debian does upgrades once every 5000 years?
19:49:22  <TrueBrain> snapshot + update
19:49:22  <SpComb> or do you go around and apt-get every week?
19:49:31  <TrueBrain> every week? Hell no :P
19:50:03  <TrueBrain> once in a while, and when I receive a CVE security notification for any of the services we run
19:50:08  <TrueBrain> due to the setup, very few
19:50:29  <SpComb> I run automated unattended-upgrade for squeeze-security updates
19:50:41  <TrueBrain> I have bad experiences with them
19:50:42  <SpComb> risk of breaking stuff is smaller than the risk of nobody being arsed to update them
19:50:57  <TrueBrain> I run a large cluster of systems; I get notified if something important happens :D
19:51:03  <TrueBrain> basically, openssh-server is top priority
19:51:06  <TrueBrain> the rest is gateway'd
19:51:10  <TrueBrain> so only nginx remains, really
19:51:58  <SpComb> and bus-factor?
19:52:12  <TrueBrain> you mean, the factor of me being hit by a bus?
19:52:26  <Xaroth> or the factor of a bus being hit by you?
19:52:34  <SpComb> how many people need to get hit by busses
19:52:38  * SpComb is bus-factor 1.0
19:52:56  <TrueBrain> euh, how many people do we have in the development team? :P
19:53:04  <TrueBrain> assuming it doesn't happen at the same time
19:53:07  <TrueBrain> I would say most part of the world
19:53:12  <TrueBrain> sounds heavily unlikely
19:53:28  <TrueBrain> joking outside, Rb is my primary fallback (and does it when I am unavailable)
19:53:36  <SpComb> specifically the sysadmin and openttd.org infra bits?
19:53:38  <TrueBrain> all developers have access to the details, although most are not aware of that fact :P
19:53:58  <SpComb> quite
19:54:21  <SpComb> I deal with a school infra that's entirely in-house, with only voluntary student admins that change every year
19:54:24  <SpComb> sucks
19:54:34  <TrueBrain> it is
19:54:41  <TrueBrain> there should be a chain of bus-hit :P
19:55:02  <TrueBrain> no, I always made sure others could also always access the systems
19:55:07  <TrueBrain> if they can figure out what to do, is a second ofc
19:55:11  <TrueBrain> most is somewhat documented
19:55:17  <TrueBrain> but Rb seems to be managing fine, so I guess it is sane enough
19:55:41  <SpComb> I tried to solve it with puppet, but it remains to be seen if it just makes the problem worse
19:55:59  <SpComb> since now only those people able to learn and use puppet will be able to do anything :)
19:56:58  <andythenorth> meh http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/3074/meh.png
19:57:02  <andythenorth> something like that, only better
19:57:12  <andythenorth> the menus need inverted colour on the font
19:57:22  <andythenorth> to distinguish primary / secondary nav
19:57:29  <Yexo> <TrueBrain> all developers have access to the details, although most are not aware of that fact :P <- I think this is quite important :p
19:57:50  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: and now show selections :D
19:58:03  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: easy
19:58:06  <andythenorth> dunno how
19:58:10  <andythenorth> easy once it's done though :P
19:58:17  <TrueBrain> Yexo: well, if you would ask in the dev channel, I am sure that within 24h you are logged in to the server; if you really wanted to :)
19:58:41  <Yexo> I couldn't care less, I'm happy I don't have to deal with keeping it all running
19:59:07  <Yexo> the only thing I find important is that enough people know where to find those details when they need to have them
19:59:19  <Yexo> say (however unlikely) that you and rb would dissappear at the same time
19:59:33  <Yexo> would be good to know if pm or someone else could still log in
19:59:40  <frosch123> i doom the day i learned how to post news items :p
19:59:50  <SAC> This is just an idea though, but to reflect that we're in fact one big family although having our home on different sites, would it be possible to have some smaller logos at the bottom for TT-forums, Simuscape, TT-MS Headquarters and so on...
20:00:07  <SAC> On OpenTTD.org I mean...
20:00:14  <michi_cc> frosch123: CVE management isn't any better :)
20:00:20  <SAC> Just a thought... :P
20:00:24  <Yexo> SAC: great post on the forum :)
20:00:42  <SAC> Yexo	, which one?
20:00:42  <TrueBrain> SAC: do you know some fine artists to make a mockup for said logo? :D
20:00:56  <Yexo> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=1025800#p1025800 <- that one most importantly
20:01:15  <SAC> Well, our logo is already done and TT-forums already have one...
20:01:17  <Yexo> having such a list of logos needs carefull thought as to which sites would be included
20:01:47  <Yexo> tt-forums/simuscape/tt-ms/openttdcoop might be obvious choices, but there are forums for other languages besides tt-ms
20:02:06  <TrueBrain> I would open it for all who comply with certain values
20:02:10  <TrueBrain> an etiquette
20:02:13  <SAC> Yexo, thanks!
20:02:26  <Yexo> which is problematic to judge for forums in other languages
20:02:31  <frosch123> michi_cc: i feel lucky :)
20:02:32  <Yexo> what about the russian forum?
20:02:47  <andythenorth> Yexo: can I inspire any interest in this ticket? :) http://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/4000
20:02:49  <TrueBrain> trust they control theirself in it?
20:02:50  <Terkhen> there is a small spanish forum too :P
20:02:52  * Sacro headscratches
20:03:02  <Sacro> so you use NAT for IPv4, but not for ipv
20:03:03  <Sacro> 6
20:03:08  <Sacro> so how do I get packets out :(
20:03:12  <SAC> I think we need to have this entire discussion with all forum representatives (?)...
20:03:48  <Yexo> SAC: forum representatives is different from OpenTTD developers (for openttd.org)
20:03:55  <SAC> I know...
20:04:15  <TrueBrain> Sacro: you?
20:04:16  <michi_cc> There's also Tycoonez.com if you start with all the language forums (and who knows if there's any chinese/japanese/whatever community out there).
20:04:23  <andythenorth> ho
20:04:30  <TrueBrain> so, make an open invitation to all these places
20:04:31  * andythenorth needs a large openttd logo
20:04:37  <SpComb> Sacro: you route, which requires cooperative configuration from your upstream, which IPv4 NAT does not
20:04:39  <TrueBrain> get them on IRC or what-ever, start a thread on some common ground
20:04:40  <Sacro> TrueBrain: yes, I'm trying to get packets
20:04:45  * XeryusTC slaps TrueBrain
20:04:48  <SpComb> Sacro: unless you use DHCPv6 PD which automates it
20:04:53  <Sacro> SpComb: hmm, I have a /64, I use NAT for lxc
20:04:53  <XeryusTC> behave yourself in the more sensible parts of the forums!
20:04:56  <TrueBrain> Sacro: ah; just checking you werent talking about OpenTTD :P
20:05:00  <Terkhen> if you start a thread I'll invite the spanish forum administrator over :)
20:05:00  <TrueBrain> XeryusTC: why?
20:05:03  <TrueBrain> people are too tight up
20:05:09  <Terkhen> bbl (for real this time)
20:05:17  <SAC> TrueBrain	get them on IRC or what-ever, start a thread on some common ground - That's a good idea...
20:05:18  <Sacro> oh hang on, I use iptables on v4, i'm guessing iptables6 or whatever won't touch packets
20:05:19  <XeryusTC> weÂŽve got offtopic for silliness
20:05:29  <TrueBrain> XeryusTC: owh, losen up a bit
20:05:30  <SpComb> Sacro: you're tough out of luck if that /64 is on-link, not routed via your host
20:05:30  <XeryusTC> i dont come to the OpenTTD section to laugh at cats raping each other :P
20:05:31  <TrueBrain> its funny
20:05:39  <SpComb> Sacro: unless you proxy-nd or other hacks to achieve the same end result
20:05:40  <TrueBrain> I have more cats ready :P
20:05:57  <XeryusTC> please wait until caturday O:)
20:06:02  <Sacro> SpComb: hm, what I want is for my ipv4 stuff to be NAT'd out via my one address
20:06:12  <Yexo> andythenorth: you can, although not for tonight
20:06:13  <SpComb> Sacro: although, uh, dunno exactly what kind of magic lxc supports, I was talking more about kvm/xen
20:06:24  <Sacro> and for my ipv6 stuff to go in/out direct, so's I can have an AAAA exeternally accessable
20:06:37  <michi_cc> andythenorth: http://vcs.openttd.org/git/?p=openttd/trunk.git;a=blob_plain;f=media/openttd.svg;hb=f28f6fac66f76c77c444152af336826179172aee
20:06:38  <Sacro> I'm guessing a bridge is not the way to go
20:06:47  <Sacro> or perhaps it is, for ipv6 only :\
20:06:57  <SpComb> Sacro: since all the interfaces are in the same host kernel you can probably just do some trickery with them
20:07:00  <andythenorth> ho, svg
20:07:53  <XeryusTC> TrueBrain: also, iÂŽm protecting you of the vengeance of orudge and Hyro ;)
20:08:09  <Sacro> ah yes, the vengeful orudge
20:08:15  <TrueBrain> I never had a warning before .. I am willing to take one
20:08:32  <Sacro> TrueBrain: chortle
20:08:33  * andythenorth needs to redesign the site
20:08:38  <andythenorth> that's unexpected :P
20:09:22  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: keep it simple ffs
20:09:26  <TrueBrain> I only wanted 1 (!) new image
20:09:31  <andythenorth> it growed :P
20:09:32  <TrueBrain> not a golden watch with diamonds
20:09:36  <TrueBrain> this how it always starts
20:09:45  <andythenorth> can I haz the images please?
20:09:49  <TrueBrain> download them
20:09:51  <andythenorth> I tried finding them via the path
20:09:55  <andythenorth> I get django errors :P
20:09:57  <TrueBrain> Firebug tells you :P
20:10:01  <TrueBrain> ffs, let me start a browser
20:10:03  <andythenorth> ach of course
20:10:04  <andythenorth> nvm
20:10:07  <TrueBrain> :D:D
20:10:15  <TrueBrain> I am sorry, IRC is on a secondary computer
20:10:18  <TrueBrain> which is TERRIBLY slow
20:10:21  <TrueBrain> so I hav eno copy/paste buffer
20:11:40  <TrueBrain> SAC: I guess the main question is: where to start a thread about it; I guess tt-forums is neutral enough
20:12:03  <NGC3982> i think i just created something fantastic
20:12:06  <TrueBrain> maybe for this undertaking ask orudge if he is willing to make a temporary forum of some kind? I dunno .. I am bad at this crap, there is a reason I am in a SysOp :P
20:12:17  <NGC3982> i logged onto my shell with my mobile phone (android + irssi connectbot)
20:12:24  <TrueBrain> Intercooperation Forum Thread :D
20:12:38  <NGC3982> i used screen -rd (redraw) to make the window fit the landscape mobile display nicely
20:12:59  <NGC3982> i also log in on my htpc, but with screen -x (just imitade the latest screen rendering)
20:13:09  <NGC3982> and change the channel on the tv to the ongoing soccer game
20:13:12  <SAC> TrueBrain, yes or approach each forum admin personally with an e-mail and find out where they stand...
20:13:21  <NGC3982> == mobile phone on table, ircing with keyboard.
20:13:32  <TrueBrain> SAC: would you be willing to carry that load?
20:13:42  <SAC> ...and invite them to a chat on a specific channel...
20:13:46  <SpComb> NGC3982: oldhat
20:13:51  <SAC> TrueBrain, absolutely...
20:13:55  <TrueBrain> awesome
20:14:15  <NGC3982> SpComb: old, surely. im just amazed over why i havent thought of this before.
20:14:34  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: you want the orange and green?  Or orange and dark grey (orange + dark grey = better)
20:14:42  <Alberth> TrueBrain: brilliant cat with paws on its ears :D    do you have it at a larger size?
20:14:42  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: pick one, I live with it :P
20:14:49  <TrueBrain> Alberth: trollcats.com
20:14:51  <TrueBrain> enjoy yourself
20:18:02  <SAC> From one thing to another, I'm on my way to create a linkage page on Simuscape to various "family-sites" ;), where do I ask for permission to use the OpenTTD.org logo?
20:18:25  <Xaroth> the much discussed info@ address i'd say
20:18:48  <TrueBrain> the logo is GPL :D
20:18:50  <TrueBrain> hihi
20:19:03  <SAC> Okey... :)
20:19:14  <TrueBrain> so we want a LICENSE File to go with it *troll*
20:19:51  <TrueBrain> without joking, I would say, go ahead and use it, and drop an email at info@. But as I don't speak for the whole team, lets poke two others .. who were last active ....
20:19:54  <TrueBrain> Alberth / Yexo: ? :D
20:20:15  <TrueBrain> (and with drop an email, I mean: just email info@ saying I said it was fine to use, basically :P)
20:20:27  <TrueBrain> the latter just for documentation purposes, for both your and my side :)
20:20:40  <Yexo> you have my go :)
20:20:47  <SAC> Yes, I do it the proper way... :)
20:20:52  <Alberth> fine by me too
20:20:57  <TrueBrain> so there you have it :)
20:21:07  <SAC> Okey, thanks... :)
20:21:13  <Yexo> not that I have anything specific to say about the logo, but ok :)
20:21:21  <TrueBrain> Yexo: nobody has, that is the fun part :)
20:23:33  <NGC3982> am i off completely, or does the ukranian prople still have issues with bosniaks?
20:24:01  <NGC3982> as a completely openttd related question, thati s.
20:24:10  * NGC3982 becomes silent.
20:27:10  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/1481/
20:28:38  <TrueBrain> spaces versus tabs, how nice :P
20:29:25  <TrueBrain> many silly changes
20:29:27  <TrueBrain> odd
20:30:24  <andythenorth> ach
20:30:37  <andythenorth> It's a copy and paste from firebug, that's never going to work
20:30:53  <andythenorth> give me a minute, I'll have to dl the original and change
20:31:22  <TrueBrain> owh, I am already in that process, no worries
20:31:41  <andythenorth> sure?
20:31:49  <andythenorth> it's like 9 lines I've added or something
20:32:04  <andythenorth> hmm
20:32:11  * andythenorth missed some apple announcements or something
20:33:12  <andythenorth> oh new laptop time
20:33:18  <andythenorth> a whole extra 0.1GHZ
20:33:23  <andythenorth> now I can run YACD
20:33:28  <andythenorth> :P
20:33:32  <TrueBrain> lolz
20:34:45  <FLHerne> That's a whole 100MHz!  :o
20:35:23  <FLHerne> That would make my laptop able to run OTTD :P
20:35:28  <Eddi|zuHause> that's three of my first laptops combined!
20:35:57  <Eddi|zuHause> i actually played TT on that laptop :)
20:35:59  <FLHerne> 133MHz is borderline, so 200MHz+ would be about playable :D
20:36:43  <andythenorth> hmm, I could get a 15" laptop, then I get quad core :P
20:36:43  <FLHerne> I compiled OTTD on mine...took a while :-)
20:36:51  <andythenorth> but then I have an enormous laptop :P
20:37:17  <FLHerne> Good enormous, or just enormous? :P
20:37:39  <andythenorth> bad
20:37:50  <FLHerne> So enormous but useless?
20:38:34  <andythenorth> enormous but too big
20:44:40  <Alberth> reminder to self: opening a .png with gvim does not give a nice picture :p
20:47:44  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: there, published it, with some minor changes
20:47:54  <TrueBrain> did went back to CSS2, as I saw I could (I am a purist like that :D)
20:47:59  <TrueBrain> but it looks nice :D Tnx!
20:49:20  <andythenorth> TrueBrain: done and done
20:49:37  <andythenorth> bold on the main nav helps I think
20:49:55  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: the matrix...
20:50:16  * FLHerne preferred the previous look :-(
20:50:35  <Alberth> Eddi|zuHause: ?
20:50:51  <andythenorth> FLHerne: which one?
20:51:01  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: watching visual information in text form
20:51:31  <Alberth> I didn't see it move :p
20:51:38  <FLHerne> As on the current 'normal' site, as opposed to the new one on the test site
20:51:46  <andythenorth> what do you prefer?
20:51:47  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: early development version :)
20:51:58  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: the png doesn't move either :)
20:52:07  <FLHerne> Flat colour is uninteresting :P
20:52:18  <Alberth> :)
20:52:50  <TrueBrain> I somewhat agree with you FLHerne; but it works so much easier :P
20:52:52  <Alberth> loading xpm in gvim is much more interesting :)
20:52:57  <andythenorth> downloading all the files I need and rebuilding the directory structure so I can edit pngs in it is uninteresting :P
20:53:12  <andythenorth> also - gradient stacked on top of gradient will suck
20:53:15  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: remember I only asked to change the colour of it :P
20:53:22  <TrueBrain> that last comment is very true
20:53:25  <TrueBrain> that looks buttttttt ugly
20:53:28  <FLHerne> The sharp angles on the bar things look odd with everything else rounded, too
20:53:50  <andythenorth> I refer you to my earlier comment :P
20:53:59  <andythenorth> "now I need to rebuild the entire website"
20:54:23  <FLHerne> But then the whole thing will look flat and angular :-(
20:54:46  <andythenorth> feel free to provide a patch
20:55:11  <andythenorth> you want to round the corners on the nav?
20:55:11  * FLHerne hurriedly shuts up :P
20:57:07  <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/3075/rounded.png
20:57:15  <andythenorth> border-radius: 7px
20:57:29  <andythenorth> you'd better set -webkit-border-radius and -moz-border-radius too :P
20:59:39  <TrueBrain> XeryusTC: there, I made a thread in the private forum to complain about myself
20:59:57  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: ugh; sorry, but that looks ugh
21:00:07  <andythenorth> [shrug]
21:00:17  <andythenorth> just responding to the crowd
21:00:24  <andythenorth> blame the crowd :P
21:01:27  <FLHerne> That looks a bit odd, actually :-(
21:01:43  <FLHerne> Maybe 2-3px radius, just to take the angle off?
21:02:09  <TrueBrain> crowd: I blame
21:02:21  <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/3076/rounded_lozenges.png
21:02:32  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: but if you are going to tweak, please make it scale better in the width etc :D :P
21:02:34  <XeryusTC> TrueBrain: i should probably make a thread about your lack of professionalism and to get you removed from the dev team
21:02:44  <FLHerne> Nice :D
21:03:14  <andythenorth> very 1998
21:03:18  <TrueBrain> XeryusTC: I would too if I were me
21:03:20  <TrueBrain> wait .....
21:03:24  <TrueBrain> FLHerne: nice? really?
21:03:30  <TrueBrain> :P
21:03:43  * FLHerne grew up with Mac OS 7 :P
21:03:44  <TrueBrain> it looks .... too much Apple-ish
21:03:46  <TrueBrain> explains
21:03:48  <TrueBrain> a lot
21:03:49  <TrueBrain> really
21:03:51  <TrueBrain> also a lot of other things
21:03:52  <TrueBrain> not just this
21:03:54  <TrueBrain> really
21:03:55  <FLHerne> Everything as RoundRects :D
21:03:55  <TrueBrain> omg
21:03:57  <TrueBrain> :D
21:03:58  * TrueBrain hugs FLHerne
21:04:13  <XeryusTC> FLHerne: i feel sorry for you
21:04:22  * andythenorth has refreshed firebug now, so it's gone...forever
21:04:22  <Xaroth> FLHerne: what XeryusTC said.
21:04:31  <TrueBrain> andythenorth: smart move :D
21:04:35  * andythenorth grew up with OS 9
21:04:43  <andythenorth> so watched a lot of bomb icons
21:04:44  <FLHerne> Humorous link: http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?story=Round_Rects_Are_Everywhere.txt
21:05:14  * FLHerne used 8.6, 9.1 and 10.4
21:05:20  <andythenorth> there should be an updated version, where steve explains that semi-transparent menus are everywhere
21:05:56  <FLHerne> Really basic error messages as hex were annoying :-(
21:07:46  * andythenorth -> bed
21:07:49  <TrueBrain> sleep well
21:07:50  <TrueBrain> en tnx
21:08:06  <andythenorth> np
21:08:08  <andythenorth> bye

Then we have all kinds of new experience w.r.t. how the system should be set up, so we use the newer version of Debian (we'd be at oldstable at that moment, or testing is very near being tagged stable)

23:47:33  <Supercheese> What version of OTTD?
23:47:36  <vbnm> 1.2.1
23:47:51  <Rubidium> what graphics are you trying precisely?
23:47:51  <Supercheese> You'll need to find an appropriate .grf, what graphics are ya trying for?
23:47:55  <vbnm> i know i cant run packs of 32bpp
23:47:56  <vbnm> but
23:47:57  <Supercheese> jinx, lol
23:47:58  <vbnm> yes
23:48:07  <vbnm> i have 32bpp 2cc trains
23:48:14  <vbnm> but it doesnt work
23:48:15  <Supercheese> That's the easiest one to get started
23:48:18  <Supercheese> oh, hmm
23:48:32  <vbnm> when i load it i have no engies and no pax wagons
23:48:45  <Rubidium> what year does your game start?
23:49:02  <vbnm> i tried 2020 but wil try earlier
23:49:53  <Rubidium> only a few diesel and electric trains seem to have been 32bpp graphics with that
23:50:49  <vbnm> WOWOW it works!!!!
