Kilosyip a fancy germany07:31
Kiloshaha07:31
psyatwtheir defense had already been shaky against Mexico and Chile07:31
psyatwso I kind of expected them to be punished for that but not by this margin07:31
Symmetriawhats the difference between snow white and brazil?07:31
Symmetriasnow white had an excuse... she was asleep when she let 7 in ;p07:32
psyatwhaha07:32
psyatwthat sounds rather ambiguous, doesn't it? :P07:32
Symmetriathe last time germany destroyed a country on home turf like that... poland... 1939 ;p07:33
psyatwhaha07:35
Symmetriathough the last time germany had this much success in south america, they were hiding from war crime tribunals07:36

* theblazehen is looking for a voxel game that can use C++ for mods18:33
ThatGraemeGuyit does18:34
theblazehen:/18:34
ThatGraemeGuynobody in their right mind would base mods on c++18:34
theblazehenwell yeah, I guess..18:34
ThatGraemeGuyyou want your mod language to be accessible to many, easy to write and debug18:34
theblazehenBut I wanna work on an AI project and need native speed18:34
ThatGraemeGuyAI is such a specialist field i can't see why you'd need an app that extensible via mods18:35
ThatGraemeGuyyou want to have control from start to finish usually18:35
theblazehenWell hebbian learning networks18:35
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: http://askubuntu.com/a/903518:35
ThatGraemeGuynot sure if you knew about the mirror:// protocol, that worked for me18:36
theblazehenWant to be able to get them to learn how the game operates etc18:36
* Kilos goes to see18:36
ThatGraemeGuyselects the fastest mirror, very useful18:36

ThatGraemeGuyai oom Kilos, i've moved on already ;-)18:44
Kilossorry18:44
Kilosi dont know why i cant ping it18:44
ThatGraemeGuynuvolari: i found the corporate environment too restrictive18:44
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: because you can't ping something starting "http://" ;-)18:45
nuvolariThatGraemeGuy: oh boo :-/ That's what I'm afraid of18:45
Kilosoh18:45
ThatGraemeGuyyeah, big corporate IT isn't everyone's cup of tea18:45
ThatGraemeGuybut you won't know until you give it a go18:45
nuvolariI guess that's true18:46
nuvolariI'm pretty much after having freedom18:46
nuvolarior some of it18:46
nuvolariand people with the right mindset on how tech products should work18:46
nuvolarinot putting the cart before the horses18:46
nuvolariI'm so fed up with that I can scream18:47
ThatGraemeGuywhat sort of work are you looking for?18:47
ThatGraemeGuyi know we're looking for "devops" people18:47
ThatGraemeGuyi hate that term so very much18:47
ThatGraemeGuybut yea18:47
ThatGraemeGuyhttp://hetznercareers.theresumator.com/apply/7v3Qnk/Senior-Devops-Engineers.html18:47
ThatGraemeGuyhttp://www.hetzner.co.za/careers/career-opportunities <-- also call centre types but i guess you are beyond that18:48
nuvolarioh, and then 4i Mobile (like), Compuscan (meh-like), Discovery (maybe-like), OnNet (like-from-what-i-saw)18:48
nuvolariand friday, Afrozaar (thumbs-up-like), and Team Talk Media (like)18:49
ThatGraemeGuycool18:49
ThatGraemeGuybest of luck :)18:49
nuvolarithanks :>18:49
nuvolariI wanted  to do devops when I started :P Wasn't really sure whether I want to do linux stuff or java stuff. Knew a bit more linux, but now my focus is on java18:50
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: have you updated your minetest yet?18:53
Kilosnope that?18:53
KilosThatGraemeGuy, 18:53
nuvolariThe worst part about job-hunting again is having to catch up on what I've forgotten by this time :P18:53
Kiloscommand line?18:53
nuvolariack, I have to go pack18:53
GrembleWhy Java?18:53
ThatGraemeGuyok you might want to update so long, when i'm done with the server upgrade you will probably need the new client18:53
nuvolariGremble: why not java? It is stable, have good support, standards, widespread, trustworthy18:54
nuvolariI know it has its downfalls18:55
nuvolaribut it makes up for that in tooling18:55
Kiloswhew only 2 meg download. is that right?18:55
ThatGraemeGuyyeah it isn't big18:56
KilosGremble, nuvolari is our java man18:56
nuvolariugh! thanks for asking Gremble :P I have to get some answers for what I dislike about java - a question I couldn't properly answer with another interview :P18:57
GrembleI feel racist toward Java. It I just discriminate indiscriminately :P So I like to hear what people like with it18:58
Kiloslol19:01
Kilosheres was a bonus ThatGraemeGuy 19:03
Kiloshttp://picpaste.com/screenshot_445957932-pSQR9Rjv.png19:03
ThatGraemeGuyoooh mese blocks19:06
ThatGraemeGuyi've only found twice19:06
ThatGraemeGuybut by now i have so much mese i can make my own blocks already19:07
Kilosi have 18 now19:07
ThatGraemeGuylekka19:07
Kiloshow many mese in each one19:07
nuvolarididn't know this: Java has been criticized for not supporting arrays of more than 231−1 (about 2.1 billion) elements19:08
Kilossuperfly, have you split a mese block yet?19:08
nuvolarithat's 2³¹-119:08
superflyKilos: no19:08
Kiloslol19:08
Kilosi wonder how many they make19:09
Kilosdiamonds are not too plentiful though ThatGraemeGuy 19:09
Kilosespecially if you mine lots of obsidian19:10
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: 9 mese crystals in a block19:10
Kiloswow19:10
nuvolariok, I'm out. Need to plack and sleep19:10

superflynp19:28
ThatGraemeGuygive me 15 mins19:28
Kilosnow we gonna be able to teleport?19:30
ThatGraemeGuyteleport is a privilege, it has nothing to do with the new version19:30
ThatGraemeGuybut mesecons and home decor work19:31
Kilosthat could save data hopefully, lots of travelling seems to eat data19:31
ThatGraemeGuyand tnt is improved19:31
Kilosoh19:31
ThatGraemeGuyboats and tnt are now part of the default game19:31
Kilosim scared of tnt lava is bad enough19:31
ThatGraemeGuythere are glass panes as well19:31
ThatGraemeGuythe way they updated tnt is cool19:31
Kiloscool19:31
ThatGraemeGuyold tnt would destroy roughly 1/3 of blocks19:31
ThatGraemeGuynew tnt only destroys dirt or cobble19:32
Kiloswhere do we get this privilege?19:32
ThatGraemeGuyso you don't accidentally blow up diamonds19:32
Kilosthats good they short supply19:32
Kilosbut mithril pick works fine on most things19:33
Kilosjust diamond and obsidian it cant cut i think19:33
Kilosbit safer near lava too19:34
ThatGraemeGuysuperfly: you said we can ditch monorail?19:34
