00:09:27  <Zuu> Pikka: So then you have to decide if writing a crawler program is creative work or not
00:10:14  <Zuu> But since software is copyrightable, I guess it is creative work.
00:11:19  <Zuu> Hmm actually, the "you may not compete with google" agreement do not exist in the terms for Gmail. However it does exist for Google Maps API.

08:26:46  <Celestar> morning :D
08:27:27  <Rubidium> gooooooooood morning "neighbour"
08:27:48  <Celestar> lol
08:27:55  <Celestar> there are about 5 states in between
08:29:02  <Rubidium> what? You aren't in Germany?
08:30:20  <Rubidium> even then... celestially speaking we'd be living in the same place
08:31:03  * Rubidium wonders whether to laugh or cry about openSUSE's release announcement
08:31:19  <Celestar> well.
08:31:21  <Celestar> german states
08:31:24  <Celestar> not countries
08:31:28  <Celestar> what's the release annoucement_
08:31:37  <Rubidium> http://news.opensuse.org/2010/07/15/opensuse-11-3-is-here/
08:31:48  <Rubidium> though especially the "Users can expect to see improved hardware support with the 2.6.34 Linux kernel and updated graphics drivers." part
08:32:13  <Celestar> heh
08:32:19  <Celestar> updated graphics drivers
08:32:34  <Rubidium> especially with AMD's efforts to remove support for their older video cards in their updated graphics drivers

08:32:37  <Celestar> wtb [working AT?Md drivers]
08:32:40  <Celestar> AMD*
08:32:51  <Celestar> well the open source radeon driver is pretty good
08:32:56  <Wolf01> hello
08:33:05  <Rubidium> Celestar: it wasn't about 2 months ago
08:33:41  <Celestar> it worked for me
08:33:46  <Celestar> except PowerPlay
08:34:02  <Celestar> but not matter what I do, I can't properly playback 1080i videos
08:34:27  <Rubidium> have you tried mplayer -cache 1048576 <video file> ?
08:34:41  <Celestar> yeah
08:34:46  <Celestar> I get 3-4 fps
08:34:49  <Celestar> the rest is dropped
08:34:50  <Rubidium> ouch...
08:34:52  <Celestar> due to CPU overload
08:35:06  <Rubidium> so EXA doesn't work as it should?!?
08:35:18  <Celestar> EXA being?
08:35:29  <Rubidium> for me the open source driver causes the screen to annoyingly flicker
08:35:40  <Celestar> kaffeine  is managing about 12-15 fps
08:35:46  <Celestar> using fglrx
08:36:24  <Rubidium> Celestar: EXA is a graphics acceleration architecture of the X.Org Server (see also X Window System) designed to replace XAA [1]  (the XFree86 Acceleration Architecture) and to make the XRender extension more usable,
08:36:45  <Celestar> and you check whether this works how?
08:37:11  <Celestar> it's nice to know that #openttd is still more helpful than #ubuntu, #opensuse, #amd, #gnome and #mplayer combined ><
08:37:48  <Rubidium> what does xvinfo tell you?
08:39:08  <Celestar> concerning EXA? nothing
08:40:29  <Rubidium> nah, just in general, as "xv" is something for faster videoplayback (or so)
08:40:52  <Rubidium> I can't remember what it shows when there is no xv, as thus videoplayback will be horrible
08:41:02  <Celestar> there is xv
08:41:07  <Celestar> I play almost everything fine
08:41:11  <Celestar> afaik even 1080p videos
08:41:17  <Rubidium> not sure whether it has anything to do with speed of playback or inability of scaling
08:41:17  <Celestar> only 1080i make issues
08:42:31  <Rubidium> hmm, let me find a 1080i piece of video to test
08:43:50  <Celestar> hm.

08:49:46  <Celestar> pft
08:49:51  <Celestar> I have no 1080p video here
08:56:24  <Celestar> yep 1080p plays fine
08:57:11  <Celestar> cpu load way below 100% on a single core.
08:57:15  <Celestar> dunno what's wrong with 1080i
08:57:20  <Celestar> well gotta transcode a lot of shit
08:59:58  <planetmaker> hm... shouldn't we rename the 'TTDPatch flags' to something more suitable?
09:00:11  <planetmaker> Same reason as the patch settings were renamed to adv. settings?
09:00:33  <planetmaker> like "global flags" or alike?
09:01:54  <Rubidium> what's more suitable than the name from the specification?
09:01:58  <Rubidium> i.e. http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=TTDPatchFlags
09:02:38  <Celestar> maybe I should try a game of cargodist
09:03:20  <Rubidium> 1080i seems to work fine with AMD's drivers
09:03:26  <Celestar> hm. is DBSet XL downloadable?
09:03:42  <Celestar> Rubidium: what are you using as backend? gstreamer? mplayer?
09:03:44  <Rubidium> if you know where to find it
09:03:47  <Rubidium> Celestar: mplayer
09:03:51  <planetmaker> Rubidium: I know that link well. But still it doesn't make sense in an OpenTTD context
09:04:19  <Rubidium> and it's not quite the backend of mplayer as I'm using just mplayer from the console, not some crap around it
09:04:27  <Celestar> Rubidium: and where would that be?
09:04:29  <planetmaker> call them OpenTTD flags and it'd make sense
09:04:44  <Celestar> grfcrawler is making issues
09:04:55  <Rubidium> planetmaker: WHO would be using the flags?
09:05:15  <planetmaker> newgrf authors
09:05:21  <Rubidium> would ANY "just playing" user encounter them, besides from seeing them in the changelog
09:05:50  <Rubidium> planetmaker: so better keep it named as it is instead of trying to rename it and make it only more unclear what is meant
09:06:09  <Rubidium> hell, OpenTTD even says it has a particular TTDPatch version
09:06:32  *** fonsinchen [~fonsinche@brln-4dbaafa8.pool.mediaWays.net] has joined #openttd
09:06:52  <planetmaker> TTDPatch flags is not very descriptive
09:06:54  <Rubidium> hmm... download an almost 1 GB 1080i sample and it doesn't even work :(
09:07:02  <Rubidium> planetmaker: and OpenTTD flags is?
09:07:14  <planetmaker> so it's already confusing as it is. And that's why I proposed 'global flags'
09:07:31  <planetmaker> or switches
09:08:15  <Rubidium> well, if you want its name changed... talk to the NewGRF community about it :)
09:08:53  <Rubidium> I'm not sure how much they fancy renaming stuff
09:09:01  <planetmaker> :-)
09:13:35  <Celestar> hm.
09:13:37  <Celestar> no sound O_o
09:15:50  <Celestar> aha ..
09:16:10  <Celestar> is there any kind of "recommended AI"
09:16:38  <Rubidium> with cargodist? I'm not sure whether any will manage
09:17:09  <Celestar> true

09:18:14  * SpComb pesters some ottdcoop people to update it
09:18:32  <planetmaker> the grfpack? yeah
09:18:35  <planetmaker> somewhen
09:18:41  <SpComb> that isn't a word
09:18:52  <planetmaker> the update will be to remove stuff
09:19:03  <planetmaker> so the urgency is very low
09:19:03  <Celestar> is there still the Urban Renewal Kit somehwere?
09:19:12  <planetmaker> Celestar: on bannas?
09:19:16  <SpComb> e.g. germanrv could do with an update, iirc
09:19:33  <planetmaker> SpComb: could. But then he could upload to bananas.
09:19:34  <Celestar> planetmaker: what's your favourite town set? default?
09:19:41  <planetmaker> Celestar: swedish
09:20:01  * Celestar gives that a shot
09:20:08  <planetmaker> SpComb and as such we won't update it.
09:20:17  * Celestar hopes for env support to fix fucking clearcase :S
09:20:21  <SpComb> bananas killed the grf packs

09:21:49  <BCMM> What is the "other" in the finances window?
09:22:05  <Celestar> everything that doesn't fit anywhere else? :P
09:22:24  <planetmaker> trees. bribes,...
09:22:32  <Zuu> Annual company fee
09:23:01  <Celestar> building industries too
09:23:35  * Celestar likes the original music set :D
09:24:24  <planetmaker> :-(
09:24:49  * Zuu likes it too
09:24:50  <Rubidium> SpComb: but it's likely that more people are now using NewGRFs and the likes because of bananas
09:24:54  <fonsinchen> admiral does fairly OK with cargodist. Sometimes it crashes, though.
09:26:13  <Celestar> heya fonsinchen
09:26:50  <Zuu> hmm, but isn't admiral ai (as most other ais) building point to point connections?
09:26:54  <BCMM> Zuu: that explains why it's the same every year for all companies
09:27:10  <Zuu> Ie no more than one destination is provided for cargo.
09:27:22  <fonsinchen> hi
09:27:27  <BCMM> what are the conditions for bankruptcy?
09:27:45  <Zuu> < 0 for some time
09:27:58  <fonsinchen> it will build point to point, but sometimes it reuses stations, then you get some transfers
09:28:17  <BCMM> Zuu: balance, or including loans?
09:28:27  <Zuu> fonsinchen: Ah ok
09:28:28  <BCMM> Zuu: i mean, one can avoid bankruptcy by borrowing?
09:28:35  <SpComb> does cd provide the AIs with info on the available destinations for cargo etc?
09:28:50  <Zuu> BCMM: Yes you can avoid bankruptcy by borrowing.
09:28:54  <BCMM> ah
09:28:59  <fonsinchen> no, there is no AI API for cargodist, yet
09:30:26  <BCMM> it's slightly annoying, since i have four AIs that have basically no assets, very slowly losing money due to loans
09:30:32  <BCMM> and taking ages to disappear
09:30:48  <planetmaker> then kill the AIs
09:30:57  <Zuu> Which AIs is it?
09:30:58  <planetmaker> in console: stop_ai #
09:31:07  <planetmaker> with # being the company number
09:31:20  <BCMM> Zuu: choochoo and admiral
09:31:36  <planetmaker> BCMM: but you have to give those AIs time to plan
09:31:46  <planetmaker> they sometimes take years to come up with stuff
09:32:02  <BCMM> planetmaker: they built stuff, i competed with them and they closed their services
09:32:12  <BCMM> planetmaker: now they are running out of money really slowly
09:32:17  <Zuu> You can open the AI Debug window to get an idea of the current state of them.
09:32:29  <planetmaker> be nice to them, don't compete unless they have a sound income ;-)
09:33:01  <Zuu> But in that case the are probably thinkning that they do not have enough money to invest at the moment.
09:33:07  <BCMM> by the way, is there a decent way to run a transfer service for cargoes like mail, passengers and valuables where you'll be returning with the same cargo?
09:33:20  <BCMM> e.g. passengers between an oilrig and an inland town
09:33:27  <Zuu> Not really
09:33:38  <BCMM> if you do transfer and full load, it just takes the passengers back where they came from
09:33:39  <Zuu> Apart from having two transfer-points
09:33:46  <Zuu> One for each direction
09:34:00  <Zuu> And have the vehicles from the oilrig go in a triangle
09:34:01  <BCMM> a somewhat annoying solution
09:34:22  <Zuu> The other solution is to use Cargodist
09:34:30  <BCMM> what is cargodist?
09:35:44  <Zuu> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=41992

12:03:23  <welshdragon> planetmaker: yeah, We'll do that
12:03:26  <andythenorth> is the bus thing a gameplay set, or eye candy?
12:03:37  <welshdragon> gameplay set
12:03:37  <planetmaker> graphics is then something you'll get. Or you could use others and then call it <whatever busses>
12:04:00  <andythenorth> welshdragon: in that case do the block graphics.  You can balance the set before wasting pixels on vehicles that you end up deleting
12:04:32  <planetmaker> yep. Just make the blocks differently coloured. If you like using re-colour sprites. Then you have learnt how to use that, too ;-)
12:05:17  <welshdragon> hmm
12:05:47  <welshdragon> any idea how many sprites zephyris used in eGRVTS on the _ ?
12:05:55  <welshdragon> (min/average/max)
12:06:00  <andythenorth> ?
12:06:39  <welshdragon> the flat facing views, not the diagonals
12:06:51  <andythenorth> 2 per vehicle I would assume
12:07:08  <welshdragon> bah
12:07:15  <andythenorth> why?
12:07:15  <welshdragon> i meant pixels
12:07:20  <welshdragon> not sprites xD
12:07:37  <welshdragon> as that's the scale being used by the set
12:07:37  <andythenorth> decomp and have a look (I'm looking now though)
12:07:52  <andythenorth> FWIW, when I get around to BANDIT it will be smaller
12:08:10  <andythenorth> if you use eGRVTS you are out of scale with UKRS, and *way* out of scale with UKRS 2
12:08:27  <andythenorth> hmm
12:08:28  <welshdragon> yeah, I know
12:08:34  <andythenorth> can't open eGRVTS pcx
12:09:04  <welshdragon> but at the smaller scales you'd not be able to distinguish buses that have similar bodies
12:09:12  * andythenorth shrugs
12:09:16  <andythenorth> such is life in pixels
12:09:42  <andythenorth> trust me, you'll end up being thankful for such shortcuts :)
12:09:54  <andythenorth> bus A and bus B can then look the same, which cuts drawing by 50%

15:05:35  <abez> So is openttd back in the app store? I went last night to a webpage on itunes that suggested it was. I must ask, why is it there? The App store terms of service for developers and for users violates the GPLv2 as far as I understand.
15:09:09  <Rubidium> IIRC it's GPLv2 that violates Apple's terms of service
15:10:48  <abez> I'm not sure what you mean.
15:11:28  <abez> Or is this a kind of argument analogous to if in physics, I hit you also hit me
15:12:58  <abez> Anyways I'm really surprised by the game communities lack of understanding about licensing and free software, they don't seem to understand that opensource is a gift that has terms to ensure everyone shares the same freedoms (at least with GPL et al.)
15:13:01  <Rubidium> Apple, by (re)distributing OpenTTD, implicitly complied with the GPLv2 license. If they do NOT want to comply with it, they should not distribute stuff under the GPLv2 license. They are aware that it is licensed under GPLv2.
15:13:39  <Lakie> Heh
15:13:40  <Rubidium> or at least they should be as I've had quite some conversations with them about the previous version not complying with GPLv2
15:13:57  <Lakie> In fairness a lot of people don't know much about lisencing.
15:14:21  *** Celestar [~vici@89.204.153.65] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
15:14:23  <Rubidium> Lakie: then Apple should talk to their lawyers
15:14:36  <Lakie> Well, I assume they would
15:14:41  <abez> Rubidium: the FSF goes further to say it wouldn't matter if the source code was released, that section 6 of GPLv2 is still being infringed upon
15:14:45  <Lakie> I meant average end-users
15:14:56  <abez> Rubidium: but I don't have the dev agreement or the user agreement
15:15:01  <abez> so I haven't checked
15:15:11  <Rubidium> abez: neither have I
15:15:22  <Eddi|zuHause> as long as the FSF doesn't sue apple, there's nothing happening about this...
15:15:22  <abez> and section 6 is about how more restrictions are not allowed to be applied
15:15:51  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: anyone who committed code that was GPL'd can sue (with legitimate reasons)
15:16:22  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: I doubt the FSF has any property in openttd (but again I didn't look)
15:16:23  <Lakie> Apple has the money for a court case, I doubt most developers do
15:16:24  <Eddi|zuHause> abez: but do they have the means to pay the lawyers?
15:16:42  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: sure, so DMCA is cheaper
15:16:43  <Lakie> do not*
15:17:06  <Eddi|zuHause> that's precisely what the FSF is meant to do. you give them your rights, and they pay the lawyers
15:17:10  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: it is easier to submit a takedown rather than go through the process, but gpl-violations.org exists for a reason
15:17:28  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: in most cases they need to have your copyright
15:17:34  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: and they do want to see the GPL go to court
15:17:38  <abez> Eddi|zuHause: they enjoy that
15:17:43  <abez> (or seem to)
15:18:00  <abez> I'm not associated with the FSF so all I can say is what I think they might do/like to do
15:18:43  <abez> Rubidium: so what's your opinion on this, do you think it should be in the app store under the current apple agreements you've heard about?
15:19:16  <Rubidium> abez: hearsay isn't something you can base a takedown notice on
15:20:47  <abez> Rubidium: hearsay? If they are violating your license and thus your copyright you have every right to tell them not to distribute
15:21:09  <abez> I don't really understand this hearsay part
15:21:17  <abez> is it because you lack most of the agreements?
15:21:40  <Rubidium> I lack *all* agreements
15:21:53  <abez> And you are the primary developer of openttd?
15:22:01  <Rubidium> well, besides GPLv2
15:22:10  <Rubidium> abez: yes
15:22:26  <abez> (btw it is a very good game and I had to delete it because it was so distracting)
15:22:48  <Rubidium> and I'm not sure whether I'm the (all time) primary developer
15:23:22  <abez> So openttd has many source code contributors
15:23:25  <planetmaker> all-time can be pretty long. Especially towards the end
15:23:27  <Belugas> yes you are, sir, and we love you for that!
15:24:26  <abez> Rubidium: I don't think this ZTOD fellow understands that you can't un-GPL openttd w/o the permission of everyone who's work was incorporated into openttd (assuming you would do such a thing)
15:24:53  <Rubidium> heh... we got it removed once already
15:25:04  <Rubidium> (and a lot of people got quite pissed)
15:25:24  <abez> Well games people don't necessarily understand why OSS has to be so "legal"
15:25:31  <planetmaker> abez: getting everyone's permission... quite difficult, I think. Not every contributor is around (anymore)
15:25:40  <abez> IP is not well understood
15:26:07  <abez> planetmaker: pretty much and the traceability of all the code is not necessarily clear
15:26:08  <planetmaker> abez: you might make wrong assumptions on the knowledge of some people here on that matter ;-)
15:26:32  <abez> planetmaker: I bet that this channel and other OSS games channel have quite good knowledge about IP
15:26:34  <planetmaker> You might find that people in this channel / community usually take license issues quite serious
15:26:49  <abez> planetmaker: I mean the general gamer populace
15:27:00  <planetmaker> oh, yes. Then I do have to agree
15:27:23  <abez> planetmaker: no offense to you guys since you're one of the few communities with a truly opensource game instead of just non-commercial or lame freeware licensing
15:27:48  <planetmaker> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=49255 <-- quite obvious, yes
15:27:58  <planetmaker> not everyone cares ;-)
15:28:06  <abez> planetmaker: what I'd love to see is some kind of gamer oriented website tutorial about the value of OSS and DFSG compatible licenses for games and assets
15:28:31  <planetmaker> dfsg?
15:28:33  <abez> planetmaker: game culture seems very accepting of proprietary solutions
15:28:39  <abez> debian free software guidelines
15:28:43  <planetmaker> ah
15:28:56  <planetmaker> well. They're ... very strict
15:28:58  <abez> itis more strict thatn the free software foundations definition of open
15:28:59  <abez> yeah
15:29:05  <abez> well they have to distribute assets too
15:29:06  <Rubidium> well... Debian didn't consider OpenTTD "main" material for a very long time
15:29:19  <abez> that's too bad
15:29:29  <abez> they have a lot of silly cruft in there and openttd is really nice
15:29:30  <planetmaker> proprietary graphics required
15:29:35  <Rubidium> abez: just take a look at the shit storm at http://www.zodttd.com/wp/2010/04/open-up-openttd-to-apple-devices/ and the linked petition page

15:34:02  <abez> Rubidium: in chromium on my net connection I was having problems getting it load
15:34:07  <abez> yeah

15:34:51  <abez> thanks
15:34:57  <Rubidium> there might be a setting to disable IPv6 in your browser
15:36:34  <abez> thanks for the random tech support ;)

15:39:16  <abez> yeah that's another issue with Apple, they turn on a dime sometimes
15:39:23  <abez> weird
15:39:41  <abez> did they change their rules in a positive manner?
15:39:47  <abez> have you enacted positive change?
15:40:34  <Rubidium> no, I seem to remember all this GPL vs Apple issues to pop up after a change in their license, which probably happened after I gave the okay
15:41:07  <Rubidium> or at least before it became publicly known

16:50:33  <BCMM> if you transfer to a station that accepts the goods you are transferring, do the goods stay there or get accepted?
16:51:17  <Rubidium> they stay
16:52:02  <BCMM> so attaching a bus station to an airport, and transferring passengers to it, would increase the number of passengers waiting at the airport?
16:52:03  *** welshdragon is now known as waelshdragon
16:53:51  <BCMM> from the wiki: "Town growth can be accelerated by loading and unloading at least one item of cargo at five stations within town influence within a two month period." - does one have to unload, or would just loading do?
16:54:28  <BCMM> would collecting people from multiple bus stops and using them to feed an airport also increase the size of the city and eventually the traffic at the airport?
16:54:47  *** waelshdragon is now known as welshdragon
16:55:55  <Alberth> yes, transfering passengers to a station will increase the number of waiting passengers, just like goods
16:56:39  <Alberth> wouldn't the wiki say differently otherwise?
16:56:56  <Alberth> (although the wiki is known to be not always correct)
16:57:11  <BCMM> i was asking about town growth due to loading and unloading goods
16:57:23  <BCMM> and whether you need to do both
16:57:43  <Alberth> the wiki says both, and most likely it does so for a reason
16:58:26  <Alberth> loading goods in a town? if it gets accepted it is gone

17:01:43  <Alberth> but euhm, is it not easier to do a few experiments in a game, doing different things in different cities, so you can compare?

17:28:41  <andythenorth> run it with an invisible powered wagon?
17:28:47  <michi_cc> train_cmd.cpp:3316 looks like the train power is properly updated on changing railtypes
17:29:12  <Pikka> making callbacks run more often would also allow for my automatic banking idea.  but otherwise, a var to read the current rail type would be nice.
17:29:21  <Pikka> otherwise, I was just going to leave the diesel engine out :P
17:29:32  <andythenorth> that would be criminal

17:30:42  <Pikka> also an option
17:31:00  <Pikka> would be a flag to make it so that articulated parts retained their properties...
17:31:16  <Pikka> that way the diesel engine could be put in a separate vehicle

18:41:04  <Pikka> I don't know if you've played with the set much yet, but most of the wagons have 3 or 4 liveries
18:41:11  <andythenorth> (not yet)
18:41:25  <andythenorth> ...but variation keeps me playing and that means a large set
18:41:37  <Pikka> when you build a train the wagons all match, as it gets older they start to get a little mixed up. :)
18:41:47  <andythenorth> shiny
18:42:05  <andythenorth> I played a UKRS 1 + addons + FIRS game recently
18:42:07  <Pikka> there's also a few variations by cargo for tanks and whatnot...
18:42:14  <andythenorth> I saw those in the sprites
18:42:34  <andythenorth> with FIRS 0.2, it's the first time I've found a real use for small locos
18:42:57  <andythenorth> the class 14 was really useful
18:43:00  <michi_cc> andythenorth: Any other whishes for vehicle vars besides current rail type?
18:43:05  <andythenorth> no
18:43:11  <michi_cc> And Pikka of course as well :)
18:43:28  <andythenorth> michi_cc: now if you could just make it possible for RVs to travel on rail also....
18:44:03  <planetmaker> andythenorth: that's called trams ;-)
18:44:05  <Pikka> michi_cc: probably a long, long list, but luckily for you none that come to mind right now ;)

23:31:46  <glx> rar is not the best format
23:32:06  <Rubidium> neither is jpg
23:32:24  <Wolf01> Rubidium, IT professionals don't use the software as a common user does, so they don't know how to report bugs, but they try to find the cause of the bug instead
23:32:42  <Rubidium> Wolf01: this one definitely doesn't
23:33:02  <Rubidium> and I wonder how he's using OpenTTD that he manages what he is managing
23:34:17  <glx> hehe he doesn't even use the ingame screenshot
23:34:17  <planetmaker> bug or feature: when the OSK window is active (but not directly its edit box), all global hotkeys are active and one cannot type normally the string
23:35:28  <Wolf01> feature, indeed
23:35:54  <Rubidium> planetmaker: huh? You mean when the white "I have focus" line isn't flashing?
23:35:55  <planetmaker> really? why not then when I have the normal sign editing window open?
23:36:23  <planetmaker> Rubidium: open the OSK. Klick on any of the buttons in it. And try to continue writing the text by keyboard
23:36:26  <planetmaker> that will fail
23:37:13  <Wolf01> maybe because the sign tool's textbox doesn't lose the focus
23:37:22  <planetmaker> that's not it
23:37:40  <planetmaker> it lost focus
23:37:46  <Rubidium> dunnoat least it's consistent over versions of OpenTTD
23:38:37  <Rubidium> though clicking outside of the input box kinda means you don't want focus there anymore
23:38:38  <planetmaker> well. I can continue to type, if I only open the osk
23:39:08  <planetmaker> but as soon as I click a letter in there, I can't write using keyboard anymore
23:39:14  <planetmaker> doesn't seem logical
23:39:19  <Rubidium> until you click on the input box again
23:39:24  <planetmaker> yes. exactly
23:39:40  <peter1138> but "IT Professional" means "Knows how to paste a picture into MS Word then email it"
23:39:52  <planetmaker> but why would I want the keys to have their global hotkey meaning, if I write a text?
23:40:20  <planetmaker> I'd understand it, if the osk window had no focus
23:40:25  <planetmaker> but it has
23:40:35  <Rubidium> because you *removed* focus from input box
23:40:56  <glx> the focus is now on the button
