Hm.. For some reason 'you' isn't being turned into 'u'
 
my gosh, this is amazing:
 
But it looks like it should be
 
yo hava2alernth rules ufath gam and then yohav a2 play beter than any1aelse

its tim 4 gretnses 2happen
@gandalf3 oh, order of operations. I'll have to reorder.
 
\o/
@CharlesL Doesn't go top to bottom?
(you = u appears to be one of the first to run)
 
yeah, but u gets turned into o, so no u's are left over
 
2:03 AM
oh duh
 
can you pull so you don't have a conflict?
(sorry, i had a bit of a change to the regex to make it work right)
@gandalf3 if you want to keep adding rules, i'll start writing an actual compression algorithm (this thing actually has to do something useful ;))
 
I was looking into iterating over the input word by word
 
@gandalf3 why not gsub?
 
Then it's easier to do things like only replace a pattern if at the beginning of a word and followed by a vowel
Or remove random spaces
I think, unless maybe lua has built in ways to do this?
 
@gandalf3 oh, for that I added a for loop at the bottom of the compression function
 
2:11 AM
oh, I need to pull then
 
@gandalf3 for word in string.gmatch("Hello Lua user", "%a+") do print(word) end
should do what you want
 
That's just about what I googled up :D
 
@gandalf3 oh nice
 
There seems to be two different syntax, s:gmatch(), and string.gmatch(s) ?
 
the lua user wiki is pretty nice
@gandalf3 yeah, either works. I like s:gmatch(), because it's more object-oriented-ish and if written correctly can be chained together
(like piping in the shell)
 
2:14 AM
I see :D
 
otherwise it's just nesting deeper and deeper in arguments (like javascript)
 
I thought you could do chains with JS too?
str.match().split() etc
?
 
@gandalf3 sorry, i'm thinking of jQuery ('cause it's popular), which is all nesting $(function(function() { return "stuff";}));
oop, that was rather useless
 
Oh yes :P
 
meh...
:P
 
2:27 AM
pretty downright awesome there
 
Alright @gandalf3 I'm gonna head of to bed
I'll pop in tomorrow :)
 
g2g too

11 hours later…
1:12 PM
@GiantCowFilms (full disclosure I did not DV your 3D graphics ad) Look you now have two DVs. I guess blender heads are very protective about their software.
 
1:39 PM
@David :/
Also a DV on the BE add D:
iKlsR, You aren't mad at me for flagging you ?
 
@GiantCowFilms probably not, but he'll get you for tagging him
 
@CharlesL I didn't use the @ for exactly that reason
 
;)
 
1:59 PM
@GiantCowFilms I dont think he would do that.
 
@David I'm a bit leery after yesterdays language.
My new meta.se question:
0
Q: Extended edit times on community promotion adds?

GiantCowFilmsOn community promotion adds all the post details have to be added as comments. This causes problems when they have to be updated to clarify a confusion or something of that sort. I propose that comments be permanently editable on community promotion adds. As far as down sides, there aren't many....

 
@GiantCowFilms language?
 
You saw what words he used.... I really don't respect that.
 
the W one?
 
2:02 PM
@GiantCowFilms are you asking about editing the comments? why not just edit the ad?
 
@David 'Cause you can't put text in the add
On community promotion adds all the post details have to be added as comments.
:P
 
@GiantCowFilms I see, you are one of those that feels compelled to add some filler text :)
 
@David Yah
 
@GiantCowFilms np, for me I can edit anything anytime :). Just ping me with your edits.
 
@David :)
Be nice to take out the middle man though
 
2:04 PM
@GiantCowFilms It would, but will not happen.
@GiantCowFilms Wait you just reduced me to a middle man?!
 
@David Very helpful friendly middle man
Middle Man Operations Department
MOD team
(Two M's in a row looks silly)
 
that would be the MMOD
 
But I combined the M's for coolness
 
@CharlesL your "text compressor" is great. :)
 
Where is it?
 
2:10 PM
12 hours ago, by CharlesL
@gandalf3 https://github.com/charles-l/ltc
 
@CharlesL You should take some sort of JSON file in to define the compression
So I can customize the fate of please to PLZZZ!!!!!!
How do I run lua?
I didn't realize people were so pedantic about the rules: meta.blender.stackexchange.com/questions/880/…
@gandalf3 I'm going to have to update the add
 
2:36 PM
@gandalf3 Why the space next to the dash. On the site there isn't one, that is kind of important
 
@David thanks :D
@GiantCowFilms which OS are you on?
 
windows 8.1
 
crap
windows is a little hard to use with lua
hang on
@GiantCowFilms do you have a C compiler?
 
Would visual studio count
 
@GiantCowFilms hmm....
maybe
actually, they have windows binaries that you can download there
that might work
there are 32 bit and 64 bit versions there
 
2:44 PM
I already got that far
;D
 
lol
let me know if they work :P
 
@gandalf3 I updated the design to fit the specs closer
since people are being annoying about borders
 
2:57 PM
@gandalf3 Regarding the gap between the text, Illustrator messed up the font
@gandalf3 Little bit of damage to your lovely design, but now it is up to spec
 
3:17 PM
this is amazing:

Q: Need help texturing cube m8 gr8

blender artisthi so i need help texturing wanna put multiple textures on different faces of the cube please help me guys? List item a cube texture

 
@gandalf3 I showed your design to the GD.SE folks, here is what they came back with: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/24055735#24055735
People are really smashing the 3D graphics ad
 
@GiantCowFilms ad!
 
every time you spell "ad" as "add", you need to put $1 in the tip jar
 
3:32 PM
Righto
 
( i will soon be rich)
>:)
 
not your tip jar
 
yes mine!
i need the monies
 
@GiantCowFilms see stark white bg is not as great as you were saying.
 
I like it, and it matches the site
@David I'm not sure yours works either though
 
3:35 PM
@GiantCowFilms true
 
@X-27 Now you can support BE :D
 
@David @VincentScalia Is your bio weapon ready yet that turns people in to walking radishes?
 
unless you have already
 
Already did UV
I'll give you one guess to what I just thought of.
and a hint
 
@X-27 huh? that was yesterday. Where have you been?
 
3:39 PM
@GiantCowFilms one guess.
 
@X-27 :D
 
Nuclear apacalypse?
that is my favorite :-)
 
   I vote up a lot of posts by This User and This User :-) so it would be really nice if they
   returned the favor.
@X-27 i see what u did there
 
@David I command you to un-freeze this room!
@CharlesL lol
 
YOU CAN"T FOOL ME
 
3:43 PM
it was worth a try....
 
true true
i'm going to steal this idea ;)
 
@X-27 sure, for $5.
 
@GiantCowFilms why is the nuclear apocalypse not working?
 
@X-27 What is up with it?
 
@David Bitcoin #?
 
3:44 PM
@CharlesL it was not original to @X-27, @GiantCowFilms used it before him. and many other before him.
 
@David ok, then i'm going to continue the legacy of stealing it
 
What idea?
 
not to stomp on your dreams, but it did not fool me for even a sec.
 
@GiantCowFilms linking to /user/current in your profile for upvotes
 
@GiantCowFilms for one thing, your not there, so there is no one to play against...
 
3:45 PM
@CharlesL Oh yah that
@X-27 We shall duel then!
@TARDISMaker show up?
 
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
 
:Prepare the nukes!!!
 
/me gets up a bunch of missile turrets so i can spot the ghosts
 
@X-27 You should be blue
 
@X-27 I poured antifreeze on that chat room. Still waiting for my 5 bucks.
 
3:46 PM
(leave)
 
o/
 
@X-27 Join!
 
see ya
 
@GiantCowFilms Will do
 
bye bye @GiantCowFilms
nukes explode everyone dies
 
3:48 PM
@CharlesL I'm still safe.
 
but just to keep it interesting, I've already landed on the moon, so i'm fine
@David hang on. you're on the moon too?
 
how long does it take for radiation to spread to the moon?
 
i don't see you...
@David too long
i'll be fine
 
come over to the dark side. I got too hot.
 
oohhhhh you're that thing that's moving over there
kk
 
3:49 PM
lol
 
you stay on your side, i'll stay on mine
it's a truce
 
deal
 
i have a gun, so don't come near me
i think we can get along
 
I have a computer.
 
maybe we'll even trade supplies
(sometimes)
 
3:50 PM
I'm dead
 
@David please. I have a server farm.
 
that was a dumb
move
 
your still on earth
 
@GiantCowFilms yeah, you are....
@David he's a pile of dust on earth
how he's typing we'll never know
 
@CharlesL is it on earth or on the moon. cooling costs are way less on the dark side.
 
3:51 PM
(UNLESS THERE ARE RADIATION ZOMBIESSSSS)
 
but the internet is soooo slow
 
@David yeah, but it's like a beach over here
@David that's cause it doesn't exist anymore
i like it
i'm using satellites to piggyback off of alien networks
 
@CharlesL bummer. so we are the only two left on the internet? cool!
 
it's a little difficult to understand everything they say, but i can get by
 
@X-27 You notice how much more performant the ships are (no jumping)
 
3:52 PM
wait. google.com still works?
 
at least aliens write decent API docs
 
Poof!!!!!
 
I still have three planets
 
@CharlesL lol. a lot better then the earthlings' docs
 
I'll just from them now
 
3:52 PM
@David true true
 
@GiantCowFilms and @X-27 you do know you can say all this in your game's room.
 
@GiantCowFilms you own a planet?
 
@X-27 Collect a bunch of ships and shoot them, I want to test performence
 
dang.. and @David and i are here fighting over a moon!
 
@David true
 
3:53 PM
@X-27 magician?
 
@CharlesL we should gang up and take the ISS
 
or is that just the sound you made when you exploded into a million peices?
@David ooh goodie. I heard they had snacks!
 
@CharlesL had they ate them all, when they heard we were coming.
 
@David WHAA!!! JERKS! I had dibs on the skittles!
@David i bet it was Jeff who horked them down, amirite?
the dude eats when he's nervous, so i bet when he saw the earth crumble he went on a food rampage...
 
lol
@CharlesL wait. jeff isn't even there now. nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/expeditions/expedition45/… (maybe they kicked him out for eating too much.)
 
3:58 PM
huh
then i wonder who ate them?
OOOhhh i know what it was
it was scotts birthday yesterday
they probably got carried away and ate all the candy
that's ok. I'll just eat moonrocks
 
It was Sergey! I did not even know he was on the iss. How does he have time to code blender up there?
