McMartin: I don't have the itemdef debugger implemented yet, so, to the XML!
00:24
< ToxicFrog>
McMartin: It gives you +4 Toxic damage and resistance, and has a 50% chance of casting Mini Toxic Spore Cloud when you attack
00:25
< ToxicFrog>
It's also a Q6 artifact, which I think means it generates with 6 randomly selected bonuses, but more testing is needed.

TF: did you figure out your spacing woes?
02:26
<&Derakon>
Find a fixed-width font that has adequate UTF support?
02:45
< ToxicFrog>
Haven't had a chance to do more programming tonight
02:45
< ToxicFrog>
so no
02:46
< ToxicFrog>
That said, it looks like the problem is not the font per se -- or rather, it's that that font doesn't have those glyphs, so it falls back to one that does, and the only font installed that does isn't fixedwidth

02:47
<&Derakon>
Yeah, that's what I meant by finding a fixed-width font with adequate support.
02:47
<&Derakon>
Maybe you can make your own font derived from a fixed-width font that imports and modifies the necessary glyphs to have extended support without breaking things?
02:55
< ToxicFrog>
nooooooooooooooooooooooope
02:55
< ToxicFrog>
I mean, I probably could, but I really don't want to, especially since I then need to worry about how to get various terminals to use that font
02:55
<&Derakon>
Yeah, I don't claim that's an ideal solution.

03:35 * celticminstrel remembers a font called "unifont"... I think it was bitmap though. Dunno if it's still around.
03:36
<~Vornicus>
trick is this is technically supposed to be a terminal program, not faking it like df does
03:39
<~Vornicus>
you don't get control over the font being used
03:43
<&Derakon>
You could recommend people play using a specific font, though.

06:23 * McMartin gets D3D9 to actually render something
06:26

omgwtfbbq
06:29
<&McMartin>
Do I actually care enough to get sensible enough results out of it to be able to replicate Sable's renderer?
06:29
<&McMartin>
Probably not!
06:29
<&McMartin>
But man, this really is some OpenGL 1.x right here, boy howdy
06:33 * McMartin digs into the headers a little
06:33
<&McMartin>
OK, there's also some OpenGL 2.x in there too
06:33
<&McMartin>
As we would expect

"BCHS: BSD, C, httpd, SQLite: Hipster-free, open source software stack for web applications for OpenBSD unix http://www.learnbchs.org"...
07:41
<&[R]>
Everything there was fine until SQLite came up.
07:48
<~Vornicus>
I do not know why you'd want to use C *or* sqlite for web applications
07:49
<@Namegduf>
SQLite is alright for low-load backing store
07:49
<@Namegduf>
You need to be very sure it's going to stay low-load, though
07:50
<&[R]>
Oh derp
07:50
<&[R]>
I didn't notice C there
07:51
<@Namegduf>
You'd want to be using it with an abstraction layer in front so you could swap it out for a bigger DB backend, most likely
07:52
<&[R]>
They're obviously trying to compete with LAMP and similar... completely not realizing LAMP's popular in part due to it being /scalable/
07:52
<@Namegduf>
Eh
07:52
<@Namegduf>
It isn't, really
07:52
<@Namegduf>
You're not scalable unless you can go multiple machines, and doing that with MySQL + PHP is a PITA and requires software designed specifically to do so, which it usually isn't
07:53
<@Namegduf>
It's just high enough capacity to get away with, most of the time
07:53
<@Namegduf>
And when it isn't you've something valuable enough to fund rebuilding it in a manner that actually *is* scalable
07:53
<&[R]>
That's what I mean yeah. Scaling out.
07:53
<&[R]>
I'll agree that most PHP software isn't built with that in mind though.
07:54
<@Namegduf>
I tend to view LAMP as the non-scalable point of comparison to, e.g. AppScale
07:55
<@Namegduf>
Or things written on some other always-scalable-multimaster datastore
07:55
<@Namegduf>
SQL is a pain in the ass to scale, and when it does scale, it does so quite badly
07:56
<@Namegduf>
Thus why you need all the custom work each time you do it carefully designed to make exactly what you need work
07:56
<@Namegduf>
It's just got a bigger upper limit to SQLite-backed stuff. Either way you're gonna be rebuilding when it comes to scale.
08:58
<&McMartin>
Quick sanity check: a unit equilateral pyramid has its apex at (0.5, sqrt(0.5), 0.5), yes?
08:58
<&McMartin>
(square base)
09:01
<~Vornicus>
Base is square and sitting with one corner at the origin?
09:01
<~Vornicus>
Yes.

Q: "how do you tell if a world is flat?" "Well, for one thng, timezones wouldn't exist. Programmers would immediately flock to it."
21:56
<@abudhabi>
Pretty sure timezones would exist in a flat world, provided geocentricity.
21:56
<~Vornicus>
no, the sun would rise everywhere simultaneously
21:57
<@abudhabi>
Well, if it were REALLY flat, like no mountains, OK, sure.
21:58
<~Vornicus>
even with mountains.
21:58
<@abudhabi>
Pretty sure there could be two timezones with a large, central mountain range.
22:04
<~Vornicus>
no, then the part right by the mountains may get sunrise slightly later but the further you get away from it the less of an effect it will have.
22:04
<~Vornicus>
Noon would happen everywhere at the same time.
