01:42 <sinewav> Has there ever been a serious attempt made to promote Armagetron? What are the pros and cons?
01:44 <BabyBug> interesting q sinewav...
01:45 <sinewav> I can understand why you would want to keep the game underground, but is there any benefit to having a larger audience?
01:45 <BabyBug> Why would you want to keep the game underground?
01:47 <flea> anyone down for ctf?
01:47 <sinewav> flea: Not right now thanks.
01:48 <sinewav> BabyBug: I think the current devs like the smaller community. Am I wrong about this?
01:49 <BabyBug> sinewav, oh erm, no idea ^^
01:50 <BabyBug> one benefit of a larger audience could be....possibility more people want to dev? which would mean arma would progress faster
01:51 <sinewav> Yes, but may progress in strange ways. hmm...
01:52 -!- z-man [n=manuel@p50871BFA.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Read error: 113 (No route to host)]
01:52 <sinewav> larger audience could also mean more of your favorite servers full of people, but also more noobs and trolls. hmm...
01:53 <sinewav> oh yeah, my "arma video" is almost done. I might upload it tonight. probably this weekend though.
01:53 <BabyBug> the kicking system in arma needs to be altered....sometimes it's impossible to get rid of people...especially in ctwf
01:54 <sinewav> yeah, that's a problem
01:57 <madmax> as long as more people meant more servers...
01:58 <sinewav> haha, we don't have enough!
01:58 <BabyBug> no rubber is the only game type where noobs don't ruin the game!
01:58 <sinewav> wow, that's true.
01:58 <sinewav> I got my friend hooked on arma and nexus is the only place he plays
01:59 <madmax> pfff, lots of campers on N9 :<
01:59 <BabyBug> imo that's a serious flaw in the design of the game
01:59 <BabyBug> or rather, a design of the game types
01:59 <sinewav> but, alpha's other game variations were a flop!
01:59 <BabyBug> flop is an understatement :P
02:00 <BabyBug> or overstatement
02:00 <sinewav> yeah, you're right
02:00 <BabyBug> depending at which way you look
02:00 <sinewav> well, I modeled flag fortress after the one game in Team Gauntlet.
02:00 <BabyBug> it's slightly annoying that N9 is the only no rubber server aswell
02:01 <sinewav> I have a "1 rubber" server. I'd be happy with more of thoes.
02:01 <BabyBug> which one?
02:01 <sinewav> AI Challenge
02:01 <sinewav> you have an AI there
02:02 <BabyBug> oh that one
02:02 <BabyBug> The one with AI_BabyBug in \o/
02:02 <sinewav> I wish I could get people to play in an arma server with default settings.

02:03 <sinewav> \o/
02:03 <BabyBug> i find it a little boring
02:03 <BabyBug> mainly because there isn't enough people in them
02:04 <BabyBug> for the default game mode to be fun, the server needs to be full
02:05 <sinewav> yes, I agree.
02:06 <BabyBug> but then for people to start joining it needs to be fun....It's the chicken and the egg scenario ^^
02:06 <sinewav> that scenario doesn't hold water anymore. It's been solved. egg came first
02:07 <BabyBug> chicken!
02:07 <sinewav> http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A2116577
02:08 <sinewav> http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/nottinghamshire/5019682.stm
02:08 <ct|kyle> sinewav: i think you are correct in that the current developers like it small
02:09 <sinewav> yeah, thought so
02:09 <BabyBug> sinewav, guru3 has shown that the BBC have no clue what they're talking about :P
02:10 <sinewav> it's not the BBC, it's a philosophical approach considering what we know about biology.
02:11 -!- Concord [n=Concord@pool-72-93-80-204.bstnma.fios.verizon.net] has joined #armagetron
02:11 <sinewav> hi conc
02:11 <BabyBug> that's only a theory anywhoo
02:11 <Concord> heya
02:11 <BabyBug> So it's not solved
02:11 <BabyBug> That's like saying our origin is solved :P
02:12 <sinewav> no, it's saying "reason was due to the fact that genetic material does not change during an animal's life". egg first. solved.
02:14 <BabyBug> it's still a theory!
02:14 <BabyBug> No proof
02:16 <Concord> the atom is a theory
02:17 <BabyBug> and if you knew everything about every single atom in the entire universe, at any one time...You'd be able to predict the future!
02:18 <flea> i can predict the past
02:18 <Concord> your head would also explode, I think ;)
02:18 <flea> i can predict the past
02:19 <BabyBug> sinewav, what's this "arma video" actually for?
02:20 <sinewav> BabyBug: btw, tons of proof. Biology is science. you are misteken about the word "theory"
02:20 <BabyBug> science is all theory!
02:20 <sinewav> yes, and it's true to the best of our knowledge
02:21 <BabyBug> but 50 years ago, our knowledge was completely different
02:21 <sinewav> yes, and because of that we can now solve the egg riddle
02:22 -!- madmax [n=madmax@unaffiliated/madmax] has quit ["ø"]
02:22 <BabyBug> but in 50 years time it could be disproved =)
02:23 <sinewav> I'm happy with the answer until then, and I'll welcome a better answer.
02:23 <sinewav> oh, and the video is like a promotional video
02:24 <BabyBug> and besides...You blew the whole thing out of proportion by sparking a debate from the simple use of a metaphor! =P
02:24 <sinewav> I wanted to make something like a game trailer for arma
02:24 <BabyBug> oh right, cool =)
02:26 <BabyBug> hrmph...the arma3d client is borked =(

05:58 <ct|kyle> that is sort of what i am using them for though
05:58 <BabyBug> i've give up cause it refuses to just work...and i've no clue how to figure out why ^^
05:58 <ct|kyle> send me code, I'll look at it sometime
05:59 <BabyBug> no! my work...cheater
06:00 <ct|kyle> your work with a grade of an F, so i thought maybe i could improve it to a B (at least)
06:00 <sinewav> :o
06:00 <BabyBug> I don't do grades!
06:00 <sinewav> well, do you do pass/fail? because...
06:00 <BabyBug> Newp
06:00 <BabyBug> Only pass!
06:00 <BabyBug> =x
06:00 <sinewav> haha
06:01 <BabyBug> Perhaps it'd help if i knew what the descriptor thingy is meant to be
06:01 <BabyBug> *prods ct|kyle*
06:02 <ct|kyle> but BabyBug lisa is not here so you can cuddle me instead
06:02 <BabyBug> Is that your way of avoiding the question because you don't know?
06:02 <ct|kyle> :)
06:02 <BabyBug> arficles
06:03 <BabyBug> ah well...at least i learned what the struct module can do
06:04 <Lucifer> struct module is very handy!
06:04 <Lucifer> you did use dgram sockets, right?
06:05 <BabyBug> yes i used dgram sockets
06:05 <Lucifer> code?
06:05 <Lucifer> :)
06:05 <BabyBug> it seems to send ok...Just when receiving...the descriptor thingy should be 5 according to wrtl's php one...but on mine when it receives it, it's 768 =x
06:05 <Lucifer> yay, now I have a weight tracker that computes both body mass index and body fat percentage
06:05 <BabyBug> i'll pastebin
06:06 <Lucifer> only requires me to take two measurements
06:06 <sinewav> if only your workout was as efficient as your spreadshett, right?
06:06 * Lucifer guesses it's fairly crude socket use, because wrtlprnft kinda threw it together in an afternoon or something like that
06:06 <Lucifer> heh
06:07 <Lucifer> sinewav: don't knock it, I've lost 50 pounds since August
06:07 <BabyBug> well then it's fairly crude socket use combined with fairly crude code.. =x
06:07 <sinewav> wow dude, that's amazing. I lost 30 pounds last year and gained 20 back.
06:07 <Lucifer> maybe you need a better spreadsheet? ;)
06:07 <sinewav> ;)
06:07 * Lucifer admits losing most of that weight without a spreadsheet at all
06:08 <Lucifer> which is sad because it'd be nice to have a pretty chart showing my progress
06:08 <Lucifer> but I'm nto about to gain a bunch of weight just to have the pretty chart
06:10 <sinewav> I wish I could get motivated to start working out again. Winter sucks hard for me. Totally makes me hibernate.
06:10 <Lucifer> ahhh, I've been riding my bike again
06:10 <Lucifer> I love Texas winter
06:10 <Lucifer> running on days I don't ride
06:10 <Lucifer> it's beautiful weather for it, high 60s/low 70s
06:11 <sinewav> Imma move there in september I think
06:11 <BabyBug> Lucifer, http://rafb.net/p/0DIsLR55.html =x
06:12 <BabyBug> at that point...on wrtls descriptor should be 5 and len should be 25!...unless i'm understand the whole thing completely wrong
06:14 <ct|kyle> sinewav: move like the birds lol
06:14 <BabyBug> I'm guessing my severe lack of knowledge is going to haunt and embarrass me here =x
06:14 <Lucifer> I don't like this code at all
06:14 <BabyBug> see =P
06:14 <ct|kyle> see BabyBug FAIL
06:14 <Lucifer> sorry, it's not your fault
06:15 <BabyBug> HA! ct|kyle fail
06:15 <Lucifer> if you're just translating some php thingee that I'm prety sure was hacked together
06:16 <ct|kyle> that is eactly what i thought of the php code LOL
06:16 <ct|kyle> exactly*
06:18 <Lucifer> explicitly set the socket to blocking
06:18 <Lucifer> sock.setblocking(True)
06:18 <Lucifer> right after creating it
06:18 <Lucifer> then, also, make sure you're telling the struct about the endianness
06:19 <Lucifer> so, add a ! to the beginning of each struct format string
06:19 <Lucifer> that tells i "network" byte order, which is for people who can't remember that the network is big endian
06:19 <BabyBug> okies
06:19 <Lucifer> I assume z-man coded it originally to encode to big endian packets, I can't think of why he wouldn't do that
06:21 <BabyBug> YAY! descriptor 5
06:21 <BabyBug> Love you Lucifer <333333
06:22 <Lucifer> great, you love me until I tell you to use select on sockets
06:22 <Lucifer> you're going to hate me then
06:22 <BabyBug> also, he did use big endian, i just looked and realised it was a translation error by me
06:22 <BabyBug> select on sockets?
06:23 <Lucifer> yeah
06:23 <Lucifer> it's a little tricky to get your head wrapped around it, but once you do, socket programming is easy
06:23 <BabyBug> *confused*
06:23 <Lucifer> basically, you set sockets to nonblocking, then you write a loop that, on every iteration, calls select on the socket
06:23 <Lucifer> select tells you if a socket is ready to read, ready to write, or has an error
06:24 <Lucifer> then you read from the ones ready to read, write to the ones ready to write, and handle errors from the ones that have errors
06:24 <Lucifer> all the rest of your code just puts messages into outgoing queues and reads messages into incoming queues
06:24 <Lucifer> I've got some python code somewhere that shows it, but sadly all of my repositories are currently out of commission
06:25 <Lucifer> but if you ever feel like writing a pirate game, I've got one that needs work, and would like to work on it :)
06:25 <BabyBug> a pirate game? lol
06:25 <Lucifer> (I think it's pyqt4, but I may have started it with pygame, I don't remember)
06:25 <Lucifer> yeah, really waht I want is simulated ship-to-ship combat in the age of sail
06:26 <Lucifer> pirating is just a convenient wrapper for it ;)
06:26 <Lucifer> networked of course
06:26 <BabyBug> i used to know how pygame quite well...until i forgot it all =x
06:26 <BabyBug> I made a sewing game!
06:27 <BabyBug> age of sail? O.o
06:27 <Lucifer> yeah, big galleons going across the ocean with nothing but sails and cannons
06:27 <Lucifer> like pirates of the caribbean, only with an attempt to be historically accurate
06:27 <BabyBug> lol
06:28 <BabyBug> but pirates the of Caribbean is cool!
06:28 <Lucifer> I was thinking networked players could team up in little groups of pirate ships and fight against each other, or fight against spanish/british navy
06:28 <Lucifer> you could decide to just trade instead of being a pirate if you want
06:29 <Lucifer> if you've ever played oolite, basically the same game only networked, and set in the late 1500s
06:29 <BabyBug> mmmm, do you actually have anything written down to read? about design etc..? :P
06:29 <Lucifer> no, but I have code somewhere, heh
06:29 <BabyBug> *face palms*
06:30 <Lucifer> er, had code
06:30 <Lucifer> I don't know what this code is supposed to do
06:30 <Lucifer> oh wait, I remember now, heh
06:30 <Lucifer> ok, I don't have anything written down to read, and all this code did was initiate a login
06:30 <Lucifer> no gui toolkit has been chosen
06:31 <Lucifer> although pyqt4 is a good one to use, I might prefer pygame for it
06:31 <BabyBug> okies..
06:31 <Lucifer> since this project is soooooo unwritten, it might be a good time to learn about pbuffers :)
06:31 <BabyBug> pbuffers?
06:32 <Lucifer> google's protocol buffers
06:32 <BabyBug> oh
06:32 <Lucifer> takes care of writing all the messages so you just have to handle the sockets and the upper layer stuff
06:32 <Lucifer> so it's a tool that writes the middle network layer for you
06:32 <BabyBug> oh i see =)
06:32 <Lucifer> I have socket handling code I can steal from another project
06:32 <Lucifer> written in python, of course
06:33 <sinewav> I can't handle it. I'm gonne leave.

16:06 <cage> could anyone explain me what INSTA means ?
16:07 <cage> sorry if it's dumb
16:07 <z-man> nah, it's not
16:07 <z-man> INSTA is short for INSTAnt kill
16:07 <z-man> they happen on high rubber servers
16:07 <z-man> (which the developers don't like)
16:08 <cage> thanks !
16:08 <z-man> when two players collide and the one with higher ping kills the one with lower ping without the rubber of the lower ping's player saving him.
16:09 <cage> ok that makes sense !
16:09 <cage> they seem to argue a lot about whether it's insta or not...
16:10 <z-man> yeah, just like they argue about lag and luck. let them :)

22:37 <BabyBug> Lucifer, no! valentines day is saturday :@
22:37 <epsy> same day than physics test
22:38 <ivantis2> physics test on caturday?
22:38 <ivantis2> dont take it
22:38 <sinewav> caturday! take your cat for a walk on caturdays
22:38 <ivantis2> take...your cat...for a walk? no
22:39 <sinewav> buy it a new fuzzy mouse toy on caturday
22:39 <ivantis2> putting a cat on a leash is a crime
22:39 <sinewav> a lot of cats don't care
22:39 <ivantis2> but cats dont enforce that law
22:40 <sinewav> yes, when they bite you.
22:42 <sinewav> caturday night fever
22:42 <nsh22> lol?
22:43 <madmax> that could well be a that 70's show episode
22:44 <sinewav> ha!
22:50 <madmax> hmm, does anyone know if you need to have your paypal account "verified" with a credit card for a normal bank transfer to it to complete?
22:50 <sinewav> http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/11590231500781.jpg
22:51 <nsh22> it shouldnt... you need to verify the bank account tho
22:51 <sinewav> I think neal is right
22:51 <nsh22> look for two deposits (of like 0.58 or some small #)
22:51 <nsh22> from paypal
22:52 <madmax> on paypal it only says that your name must match the one of the bank account :/
22:53 <nsh22> is there something that says unverified
22:53 <MaZuffeR> you don't need to verify your bank account (at least i didn't have to)
22:53 <madmax> MaZuffeR: yes, but I thought that was only to remove the transfer limits
22:53 <nsh22> if your using a bank account you do
22:53 <madmax> er, I meant nsh22
22:54 <nsh22> no
22:54 <nsh22> you need it to take money from the account
22:54 <nsh22> i think

23:27 <epsy> yes*
23:28 <flea> i'm not familiar with local_user
23:28 <epsy> what did you do so far?
23:28 <flea> ?
23:29 <epsy> what do you mean with registering an username ?
23:29 <flea> if i register 'flea' on server1 and server2
23:29 <flea> i will have redundant registrations?
23:29 <epsy> describe the process of registration
23:30 <flea> i dont know the process entirely
23:30 <flea> i'm mostly asking
23:30 <epsy> because i'm not sure what you exactly mean
23:30 <Concord> hey neal
23:30 <epsy> well, either they are local accounts created with LOCAL_USER and they won't ever leave the server,
23:31 <epsy> either they are on an external authority
23:32 <flea> ah, so there is already in place a central location for registered names?
23:32 <joda_bot> epsy,flea : you've a misunderstanding
23:32 <epsy> no, there is nothing central

23:36 <ivantis2> no babybug didnt just say the same thing
23:36 <ivantis2> it was different when luke-jr did it
23:36 <nsh22> ivantis, kickjs are hints to STFU
23:36 <luke-jr> flea: no, ladder does not use nicknames for auth'd people
23:36 <epsy> actual screen names are only handled at server admin level
23:37 <flea> oh ok
23:37 <flea> who runs wild west ctf?
23:37 <nsh22> manta
23:37 * luke-jr should really isolate auth and non-auth in ratings
23:37 <nsh22> theres no auth on WW servers
23:37 <luke-jr> lame
23:37 <dlh> There also is a way to reserver a name, RESERVE_SCREEN_NAME
23:37 <flea> luke-jr, epsy thanks
23:37 <epsy> flea, why?
23:37 <luke-jr> dlh: no global way
23:37 <flea> so, whats the real purpose then of LOCAL_USER
23:38 <epsy> except if server admins pair up
23:38 <dlh> right, no global way. just on individual servers
23:38 <luke-jr> flea: LOCAL_USER is just annoying
23:38 <BabyBug> there should be a global way
23:38 <luke-jr> flea: but it can be used for admin rights if you hate global ID
23:38 <epsy> BabyBug, no
23:38 <flea> ^ agrees
23:38 <BabyBug> epsy, why?
23:38 <epsy> BabyBug, a /shared/ way is OK, but a global is not
23:38 <flea> i dont want to have membership / allegiance to a forum
23:38 <epsy> flea, make your own or use local users
23:39 <luke-jr> flea: that's WHY there is no global way
23:39 <BabyBug> a global way to stop your nick being used? i don't see what's wrong with that...
23:39 <dlh> A shared way would be fine. then server admins could opt in to it if they want
23:39 <luke-jr> global way = membership/allegiance to a forum
23:39 <luke-jr> current way allows anyone to run their own authority
23:39 <epsy> BabyBug, I'll assign the BabyBug nickname to luke-jr then
23:39 <flea> luke-jr, or just a flat file list on a master server :/
23:39 <luke-jr> someone should fix RINCLUDE to make a shared way ;)
23:39 * dlh registers Player 1 on global auth
23:39 <epsy> luke-jr, what is wrong with it?
23:39 <flea> Are you the real Player 1
23:39 <epsy> dlh, I was there first!
23:40 <luke-jr> epsy: it's resource-based, which works for resource-style stuff
23:40 <luke-jr> but it means the file content can never change for any identifier
23:40 <luke-jr> we still don't have dynamic redirect resources ☹
23:40 <epsy> maybe implement something in the likes of a "-latest" configs
23:40 <luke-jr> eg, NameReserveCoalition/config/reserves-LATEST.cfg
23:40 <dlh> Player 1 is online 109.1% of the time according to http://wrtlprnft.ath.cx/playerstats2.htm
23:40 <epsy> should be designed
23:40 <luke-jr> which redirects to
23:40 <luke-jr> NameReserveCoalition/config/reserves-20090212.cfg
23:41 <epsy> or whatever's last
23:41 <luke-jr> epsy: haha, same thought
23:41 <luke-jr> epsy: too bad it'd totally break backward compat, but for server stuff that matters less
23:41 <luke-jr> epsy: redirects are saner IMO
23:41 <luke-jr> "whatever's last" requires an intelligent client
23:42 <luke-jr> it also requires a means to list resources
23:42 <luke-jr> which we don't have now
23:42 <epsy> which we need
23:42 <luke-jr> agreed
23:42 <luke-jr> but as a separate thing ☺
23:42 <epsy> also too bad for the guy who publishes resources with "latest" as revision
23:42 <luke-jr> I think using HTTP redirects for LATEST is more ideal
23:42 * luke-jr notes uppercase for a reason ☺
23:42 <luke-jr> we could also use some unicode char
23:42 <luke-jr> like …
23:42 <epsy> lol
23:43 <luke-jr> or the infinity char
23:43 <luke-jr> ☺
23:43 <epsy> that would be real fun
23:43 <luke-jr> infinity char is best IMO
23:43 <luke-jr> it also forces us to get unicode resources working right
23:43 <luke-jr> who knows the current state of that
23:43 <luke-jr> bbiab
23:43 <epsy> last character ever would be terribly appropriate, haha
23:43 * nsh22 is listening to judas preist
23:44 * epsy is listening to nsh22's crap message he doesn't care about
23:44 <nsh22> you listen to writing?
23:44 <flea> yea
23:44 <flea> i'm interested
23:44 <flea> festival?
23:44 <epsy> meh, voice synth :<
23:45 -!- z-man [n=manuel@p50871681.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #armagetron
23:45 <flea> i am a bot, sit on my face
23:45 <epsy> is there any opensauce voice synth around? I doubt it
23:45 <flea> festival
23:45 <epsy> ah ?
23:46 <flea> oh well not sure if its oss
23:46 <epsy> similar to BSD
23:46 <epsy> says wp
23:46 -!- MaZuffeR [n=mazuffer@darkmoor.sby.abo.fi] has quit ["Ex-Chat"]
23:49 <luke-jr> Festival sucks tho ☹
23:49 <epsy> :(
23:49 <madmax> text to speech is illegal dude™
23:49 <flea> luke-jr, thats because you're using george bush voices
23:49 <luke-jr> Cepstral is easy to crack if you care ;)
23:50 <epsy> do we want media in armagetron produced with cracked proprietary software?
23:50 <luke-jr> so make any voice synth modular w/ Festival, and have some unofficial illegal Cepstral one
23:50 <flea> what is arma developed in?
23:50 <epsy> C++
23:50 <luke-jr> oh, media?
23:50 <epsy> like, Team blue wins!
23:50 <luke-jr> not actual on-demand synth?
23:50 <flea> haha
23:50 <luke-jr> nsh22 made us sounds
23:50 <epsy> could be on-demand
23:51 <luke-jr> on-demand will need a plugin interface
23:51 <nsh22> i did what?
23:51 <epsy> though I'm not sure that's really effective
23:51 <luke-jr> if you want to make an illegal plugin
23:51 <flea> sounds hard on clients
23:51 <luke-jr> flea: in theory, servers could synth it
23:51 <luke-jr> and stream to clients
23:51 <flea> oh that would be great
23:51 <flea> i got lag cause someone died and the server sent me a wav saying so
23:51 <epsy> and DrJoeTron could send them crap music, too
23:51 <nsh22> luke-jr: what did i do?
23:51 <luke-jr> nsh22: sounds
23:51 <luke-jr> or was it smoothice?
23:51 <nsh22> wasnt me lol
23:52 <epsy> or rather sine.wav ?
23:52 <nsh22> or i have some malware
23:52 <luke-jr> oh yeah
23:52 <luke-jr> sine.wav
23:52 <luke-jr> that's who
23:52 <nsh22> lol
23:52 <nsh22> ironic isnt it
23:52 <flea> sine.wav haha
23:52 <epsy> I guess I'll ask around nexuiz/warsow people about their announcers, I guess they are just edited real voices
23:53 -!- G5 [n=G5@cl-506.dus-01.de.sixxs.net] has quit []
23:53 <flea> probably mkzelda's voices
23:53 <luke-jr> lol
23:53 <epsy> eh
23:53 <flea> mkzelda : punisher of nexuiz
23:54 <luke-jr> epsy: you want to work on an infinity redirector, or me?
23:54 <epsy> I would like to rate the spec
23:54 <luke-jr> epsy: IMO, we need a general-purpose redirector too
23:54 <epsy> but I don't think having time to properly work on this
23:54 <luke-jr> so infinity would be a repository-side thign
23:54 <epsy> luke-jr, please consider a resource nickname concept
23:55 <luke-jr> …
23:55 <luke-jr> wtf?
23:55 <flea> kinda like how some people call an apple an orange
23:55 <epsy> let's say, resource repos should give their clients a list of their resources
23:55 <epsy> hmmmmm
23:55 <epsy> forget, this idea needs to forge
23:56 <epsy> actually, resource name will just fit the purpose
23:56 <nsh22> oh like for a map, it wouled be like:neals map23 insteqad of neal/race/whatever?
23:56 <epsy> screen name may be useful, tho
23:57 <epsy> nsh22, well, I'd prefer to type /vote map awesomerace than /vote map epsy/race/awesomerace-0.2.aamap.xml
23:57 <nsh22> i know, i was just wondering if thats where you were goin
23:59 <epsy> actually, it could be generated from server cache if resource repo doesnt provide it, or if server admin doesnt want

» Layout is loosely based on an old design by Durf.
» Icons on the tools page were originally by Royce, new icons added will try to follow some of the design language.
» Various other icon selections include icons from Crystal, crystalsvg, oxygen, and breeze icon themes.
» Other icons: fontawesome

is a site that has tools, maps, and other various items. It orignally only existed as a server control panel, but I slowly began adding stuff such as a homepage and tools.

This is an LLM-free zone. In general, I am unwilling to use (fight with) any form of "GenAI" to write code for me. So, for the forseeable future, everything on this site will continue to be written by a very silly goose (wait that's me honk honk) with some parts written by other humans as well (silly hu-mon) rather than any plausible-series-of-words token-eating machine. Even my libraries are out of date, and suddenly that's a good thing!
(Although the style has changed several times and content has been added and changed, the base of this site has barely been updated since 2015. But it Ain't Broke!)
This site is also occasionally tested with older browsers, but compatibility is not guarenteed. Although, if you have an old obscure browser and something isn't working that previously did, I guess you can tell me (nelg) about it...
