[17:54] <Henke37> windows
[17:54] <Henke37> my filesystem has massive latency at times
[17:54] <fydo> hmm, could consider running the game files from a RAM disk
[17:55] <Henke37> yeah, that might work. if it doesn't get swapped to disk...
[17:56] <Henke37> anyway, the problem is being non responsive while waiting for io

[18:34] <salty-horse> O
[18:35] <salty-horse> oops
[18:36] <DrMcCoy> Ugh, horrible
[18:37] <salty-horse> I'm guessing SOMETHING stripped the newlines
[18:38] <salty-horse> anyway, parsing text files is hard. people type things in all sorts of ways and I can't account for everything
[18:38] --> GitHub151 joined #scummvm.

[18:40] <m_kiewitz> noooo
[18:40] <bgK> git log
[18:41] <m_kiewitz> will that force people to reset or something? because i hate that
[18:41] <DrMcCoy> ...How can you accidentallly force-push?
[18:41] <salty-horse> how do you accidentally force-push?
[18:41] <m_kiewitz> lol
[18:41] <salty-horse> your midi-chlorian count must be off the charts
[18:42] <bgK> I force puched a branch with the incorrect remote :s

[18:43] <bgK> there, should be back to exactly the same thing as before
[18:43] <bgK> hopefuly no harm done
[18:43] <bgK> but I'm very sorry for that
[18:43] <eriktorbjorn> salty-horse: If memory serves me, there used to be quite a few walkthroughs of adventure games in the nineties that were just lists of commands to type.
[18:44] <eriktorbjorn> DrMcCoy: Ohhh, that's very nice.
[18:45] <salty-horse> eriktorbjorn, yes, text adventures are like that, but this one has no newlines
[18:46] <bgK> can someone with admin rights set master as a protected branch in the scummvm git repo on github?
[18:46] <salty-horse> I have a bot that tweets random instructions and it breaks on that file. the only line it catches is the last one. it even tweeted that twice and it has 700 games to choose from
[18:46] <eriktorbjorn> salty-horse: Maybe they just wanted to keep it compact, and that's why there's a colon between each command? I don't know.
[18:46] <-- pozitron left irc: Ping timeout: 250 seconds
[18:46] <salty-horse> bgK, I don't think github can prevent a force push. I know other sites have that feature
[18:47] <bgK> salty-horse, it can, there is a branch protection feature
[18:47] <salty-horse> huh
[18:47] <LordHoto> bgK: I think it does that, but additionally it limits the people being able to push to that branch
[18:48] <LordHoto> bgK: Also, nobody can do a force push then.
[18:49] <LordHoto> bgK: So, nothing we want anyway...
[18:49] <LordHoto> bgK: I mean we do force pushes seldom enough to let someone with admin rights disable the feature, force push, and enable it again.
[18:50] <bgK> LordHoto, exactly, so why not enabling it? The default behaviour for protected branches is to prevent force pushes and deletion
[18:51] <bgK> and as an option it can be made required to have commits come form merges, but that's not something we want
[18:53] <LordHoto> bgK: Looks like that's only for pull requests.
[18:54] <LordHoto> I think we can do that. I'll first need to finally get someone to add me as owner/administrator. :-P
[18:57] <LordHoto> wjp, _sev: Any opinions of enabling the protected branches feature to prevent force pushes to master?

[20:03] <salty-horse> m_kiewitz, is "the executable" ScummVM?
[20:03] <Henke37> of course not. it's scummvm.exe
[20:03] <salty-horse> why does it crash? bug?
[20:12] <L0ngcat> dreammaster: the datafiles listing for Rex states 'DIGITAL.ADA', but my gamefiles say 'DIGITAL.AGA'. typo?

[21:32] <Henke37> man, I didn't realize that the opening video in comi is seven minutes long
[21:34] <Henke37> they could probably have cut down the filesize by putting the opening credits outside of the video
[21:34] <Henke37> smush isn't exactly the best video codec around, does it even do interframe compression?
[21:37] <Henke37> it's not like they were low on rooms, they don't even break 100
[21:38] <Lightkey> salty-horse: the Sierra games are packaged with DOSBox
[21:39] <salty-horse> that makes more sense, thanks
[21:40] <eriktorbjorn> I think the game that went most overboard with cutscenes that I've played (that wasn't an FMV game) must be The Feeble Files.
[21:41] <Henke37> cutscene or video?
[21:43] <eriktorbjorn> Not sure what the distinction is, but it does have both short videos showing some action or event, and longer ones showing the transition from one part of the game to the next.

[21:45] <Henke37> it's how it's implemented technically
[21:45] <Henke37> a video is traditionally stored in a separate file
[21:45] <Henke37> video is nearly always fullscreen

[21:46] <Henke37> video uses special encodings that don't understand what they are encoding, just that it's a blob of pixels that changes over time
[21:47] <eriktorbjorn> Well, they're Smacker video files. Well over 200 of them.
[21:47] <Henke37> smacker is certainly video
[21:48] <eriktorbjorn> I have mixed feelings about the game. On one hand, it's certainly ambitious and often funny. But I remember parts of it being pretty infuriating as well.
[21:49] <Henke37> can't comment on it, never played it

[21:53] <eriktorbjorn> One thing I like (even if Monkey Island 2 did the same joke already) is that it keeps track of your "criminal record" throughout the game, and that list can grow *quite* long.
[21:53] <eriktorbjorn> I'm not even sure where all of the strikes come from, because some seem to be optional, and possibly mutually exclusive.

[21:55] <Henke37> they did
[21:56] --> lewellyn joined #scummvm.
[21:56] <Henke37> even had a puzzle about pinning the blame on some other smuch
[21:57] <eriktorbjorn> Some of my favorite non-spoiler ones in The Feeble Files are "Developing a sarcastic and critical sense of humour.", "Failing to lead a happy and fulfilled life." and "General 'attacking the Company stronghold' type behaviour."
