Log from 2018-05-16: [01:28:50] <Z-Man> Lucifer_arma: I don't remember how I added the engine sound, sorry. [02:03:17] *** Quits: G5 (~g5@p200300EB4BCE6C00FD3B592087D4B06E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) () [02:03:35] <Lucifer_arma> the only thing we need to rebuild that we've lost is the player base, but we didn't lose that to neglect, we lost it to people moving on [02:04:56] <Lucifer_arma> Z-Man: no worries. I was hoping to get some explanation of what you did so I'd understand the code when I find it (again, I already looked at it before, so I know where it is) without having to, you know, read the code :) [02:06:00] <Lucifer_arma> but if you want a specific goal to get a "famous person" mentioning arma, get me on a talk show [02:06:22] <Lucifer_arma> I probably need to finish the book I'm working on right now, so that "science fiction author" is a reason for me to be there [02:08:01] <Lucifer_arma> but my resume as a person in public is basically armagetron guy, author, web comic, and I can't see me not talking about all three of those [02:08:40] <Lucifer_arma> so, lemme get this other book finished first, then that's a reasonable focus, considering my position here and the fact that I have to use an alias to play if I just want to play [02:09:36] <Lucifer_arma> the biggest advantage to a strategy built around that is that we all want someone able to dedicate time every week to working on the game, and I'm someone in a position to do that, so there's some overlap on the venn diagram there [02:09:54] <Lucifer_arma> I'd draw it, but I'm going to go practice a bit with my shitty computer because there's a ladle coming up [02:10:01] <Lucifer_arma> also, compguygene: good to see you here again [02:10:51] <Lucifer_arma> also, on a side note, playing this game on a tv, which is comparable to the gaming console experience, is a bit difficult, what with my eyes being what they are [02:10:57] <Lucifer_arma> basically, everything's too small [02:11:34] <Lucifer_arma> I know, the game wasn't designed for a big screen that you sit away from like two meters or so, so of course it doesn't work well that way [02:12:01] <Lucifer_arma> but with all the people saying "Hey, can we get an Xbox version?", well, there's more to it than just porting code [02:12:42] <Lucifer_arma> be nice if we could check the OS at runtime and change the rendering based on that, like you'd do in python [02:13:22] <Lucifer_arma> anyway, I'm going to try to recruit my boys to play in the ladle [02:13:38] <Lucifer_arma> they'll be with me that weekend, and for the time we're looking at having it, they'll be here with me [02:43:20] <Lucifer_arma> haha. Swag had to boot me from his server because he couldn't handle losing to a girl name (Teyla, from Stargate Atlantis) [02:48:04] <Lucifer_arma> well, I didn't find a fun game to play, but I got banned by swag for insulting him [02:48:06] <Lucifer_arma> that was fun [02:48:15] <Lucifer_arma> anybody up for a game, though? [03:00:50] <Lucifer_arma> haha, wow, swag really is thin-skinned [03:00:58] <Lucifer_arma> no wonder it was always so easy to troll him [03:01:10] <Lucifer_arma> btw, he's apparently still playing [03:01:19] <Lucifer_arma> he just sucks and has to use admin powers to win :) [03:16:56] <Lucifer_arma> we're probably going to get attacked again, because I'm an incurable troll [03:23:48] *** Joins: HoloIRCUser2 (~holoirc@2600:380:5c46:761b:e5be:7bbd:e22b:d9d4) [03:25:21] *** Quits: compguygene (~holoirc@23.28.131.50) (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [03:27:51] *** Quits: HoloIRCUser2 (~holoirc@2600:380:5c46:761b:e5be:7bbd:e22b:d9d4) (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [05:20:10] *** theocrite_ is now known as theocrite [08:00:40] *** Quits: sinewav (~Thunderbi@ip68-7-68-87.sd.sd.cox.net) (Remote host closed the connection) [08:01:01] *** Joins: sinewav (~Thunderbi@ip68-7-68-87.sd.sd.cox.net) [09:34:07] *** Joins: compguygene (~holoirc@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) [09:38:41] *** Quits: compguygene (~holoirc@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) (Remote host closed the connection) [09:55:48] *** Joins: compguygene (~compguyge@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) [10:00:56] <compguygene> Lucifer I couldn't agree more the only reason we lost their base is because they aged out. However I think the ways that people found armagetron in the past no longer working for instance when I cannot get run I found it through a article on a Blog about great multiplayer games for Linux just don't see anything like that written about armagetron anymore. However if you do with the remaining players that are around and thos [10:19:21] *** Quits: compguygene (~compguyge@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [10:24:16] *** Joins: compguygene (~compguyge@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) [13:38:17] *** Joins: Ww_compguygene (62672932@gateway/web/freenode/ip.98.103.41.50) [13:53:05] *** Quits: Z-Man (~Z-Man@p5B326985.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [14:42:43] *** Quits: Ww_compguygene (62672932@gateway/web/freenode/ip.98.103.41.50) (Quit: Page closed) [15:11:02] *** Joins: zmanuel (~Z-Man@p5B326985.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) [15:11:02] *** zmanuel is now known as Z-Man [16:54:23] *** Joins: G5 (~g5@p200300EB4BCE6C0039BAA3D0A49CDBA8.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) [19:40:41] *** Quits: compguygene (~compguyge@2600:380:5c46:761b:24d5:a90e:53ed:755d) (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [21:06:03] *** Joins: Z-Man- (~Z-Man@p5B32695A.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) [21:06:03] *** Quits: Z-Man (~Z-Man@p5B326985.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Killed (verne.freenode.net (Nickname regained by services))) [21:06:03] *** Z-Man- is now known as Z-Man [21:38:46] *** Joins: sinewav1 (~Thunderbi@ip68-7-68-87.sd.sd.cox.net) [21:40:34] *** Quits: sinewav (~Thunderbi@ip68-7-68-87.sd.sd.cox.net) (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [21:40:34] *** sinewav1 is now known as sinewavView entire month
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...
