YEah, the only two closed platforms are Stratford and Bank iirc
You need to already have touched in, or come in via National Rail links to get to those DLR platforms
Anywhere else thoguh you can just walk on or off and get away with it, as it's rare to find a ticket inspector on the DLR and they're fully automated with no staff driving it or anything

in munich the underground is open, no gates. you just are asked to stamp your ticket at the entrance.
warp
Muz: the gates in .nl are considerably higher.
Muz
warp, the people in .NL are considerably taller ;) One of the tallest nations on average :P
A minor gripe about these p[ayment systems are that they're limited to small metros/regions. I can understand not being able to pay for say national rail trains, but it's a pain in the arse to not be able to get a bus in any county and payusing the same card heh
CatCat
same with fylker here
warp
Muz: the intent of the dutch card was to use it for all of .nl
CatCat
the thing only works in oslo, go out of oslo and you need a differnt system
warp
Muz: but with mifare security being such an issue, the implementation is greatly delayed.
Muz
Oyster Cards only works in London and links to/from London, understandable as it's ran by TfL (Transport for London)
CatCat
i can show you when you come visit here, warp
warp
CatCat: yes :)
CatCat
when was that again?
CatCat meomry liek a sieve
warp
whenever i have time + money.
CatCat
aaaahhhhh
CatCat *is* lookibg forwaqrd too it
srotta
I don't really see as such a problem. If I have to travel somewhere else, I have this thing called "credit card". Works everywhere.
warp
the money issue should be much clearer by the end of august, i'm waiting for monthly tax returns to be arranged because of my new house, etc..
CatCat
also because i gave up on twilight princess and am now playing master quest
ahh yay
lol maybe come here in fall/winter
warp
srotta: i wasn't able to top up the oyster card with my creditcard.
CatCat
usually it'd be cold but with tihs freaky enviroment..
warp
srotta: and good look trying that in .nl, creditcards are not all that common here.
CatCat
it will priobably be hot
srotta
warp: Yeah, that's a problem.
Muz
srotta, I can't use a credit card on a bus ;)
CatCat
i uh.. i still have an oyster card from when i was in london
it came with me
warp
CatCat: hm, master quest.. is that the remixed ocarina of time?
srotta
warp: Same thing in Germany, most stores had "no credit cards allowed".
CatCat
warp: tyepp!
Muz: the busses too and fro the airport lets you use credit cards
srotta
Muz: Yeah, but that's the problem of buses, I don't really see the point in creating another card that's just used for paying travle fares.
CatCat
@andmost stores have credit cards herew
we have paper tickets
warp: yes it is
its awesome ! \o/
warp
srotta: i like the seperate systems. I use the public transport card a lot more, so it not always lives in my wallet. it's quite ok for that to get lost or stolen...
(well, when i was still using it. i switched back to the old ticket system for the dutch metro now :)
CatCat
i hope the oystercard i have still works when i revisit
LotR
strippenkaart?
CatCat
strippekort?!
LotR
or does the metro have another system too?
CatCat
wtf XD
warp
LotR: yes.
CatCat
striptease card.. wtf :D
warp
LotR: and 'zwartrijden' is also a feasable option in the rotterdam metro ;)
CatCat knows thats not it
CatCat
zwartrijden?
LotR
warp: I know, I accidentely did that last year, when I stamped the wrong bit
CatCat
WHAT?! :D
explain, plz
warp
CatCat: it's a "card with strips", each strip is 1 zone -- you stamp the amount of zones you want to travel (+1 strip base fare).
CatCat
jaha
and zwartrijden?
warp
CatCat: zwartrijden is 'riding black', or not paying for a ticket at all.
CatCat
aha!
Muz
Wasn't Black Riding outlawed in the 1800s?
[/distasteful]
CatCat
speaking of rides, i have to go now, icats need food
what, mnuz?

muz: so what's the term for using public transport without a ticket in english then?
Muz
I'm not sure if there really is one. I'm sure there are a plethora of slang terms, but I've never used any :/

warp disklikes coworkers who come to him to debug their shit
luks: So. it should be "version-info 2:1:0" instead of "version-info 2:1:2"?
Or "version-info 2:1:1"?
luks
the patch says -2:1:1 +2:1:2
- is wrong, + is right
Freso
So... it's already fixed?
luks
yes
Freso
Ah. Oh well.
It doesn't match the changelog entry though, but I'll let it rest.
luks
it doesn't?
oh
Freso
luks: Nope. And I would deduce that the change would now make it create libdiscid.so.2 instead of .0 or even .1... but I'm not a C hacker, so what do I know? :)
