00:01 <PinkieShy> schism i really hope tenforums was right.

00:01 <PinkieShy> if it isn't the board.. :/

00:02 <PinkieShy> I'll just sell this PC and be without for a few months..

00:03 <Schism> No, from what I can tell, that particular bus error is almost certainly an issue with the board.

00:03 <PinkieShy> I just removed side panle from PC..

00:03 <PinkieShy> going to tap the northbridge heatsink to see if i crash..

00:04 <PinkieShy> nothing.

00:04 <PinkieShy> might be something else or something going under it

00:04 <PinkieShy> oh well

00:04 <PinkieShy> a new board would allow me to do more upgrades :D

00:04 <Schism> True!

00:04 <Schism> And have you run memtest86?

00:04 <PinkieShy> like a sound card instead of the built in one :P

00:05 <PinkieShy> Schism i ran prime95 30 minutes no crash. Furmark 20 minutes no crash.

00:05 <PinkieShy> memtest86+ on KDE stick.. 5 times no errors.

00:05 * Schism noddles then.

00:05 <PinkieShy> my cpu and gpu gets up to 71C at most :P

00:06 <PinkieShy> i got warranty on the PC

00:06 <PinkieShy> but It would cost me more to send them the PC then it would for me to fix it myself xD

00:06 <Schism> Yeah, that's one of those cases where Morton's Fork applies.

00:07 <PinkieShy> I probably already costed cyberpowerpc $3000 anyways ;)

00:08 <PinkieShy> Telling possibly customers don't buy from them. Don't want another person to fall victim of a company like that.. selling pcs as new with old motherboards and OEM parts and such.

01:57 * DashedRainbows gives Maud-Pie a pretentious rock, a ruby

02:04 * Schism steals the ruby, tears it apart at the molecular level, and uses it for aluminium metal.

02:04 <Schism> Aluminium metal is much more valuable than gold, after all.  o3o

02:22 * Filly_Nightmares gnaws on the aluminium.

02:22 * Filly_Nightmares gnaws on Schism next after she eats it

02:23 * Schism distracts Filly_Nightmares with some maple syrup and walnut oatmeal cookies.

02:23 * Filly_Nightmares noms the cookies and purrs as she nests on Schism

03:54 * PinkieShy hugs his pal thelema5

03:55 <PinkieShy> Its been since August having this eye floater.. I think I'm going to have to wait until near August 2018 to find out my finally destiny on this thing xD

03:55 <PinkieShy> Hopefully it disappears :-)

03:55 <PinkieShy> I'd love to be the lucky ones.

03:56 <PinkieShy> I need luck after all the debugging my PC has put me through :P

03:56 * Thelema5 counterhugs!

03:57 <PinkieShy> The funny thing is..

03:57 <Thelema5> It will probably go away.  And even if it doesn't you'll get used to it

03:58 <KooK> Hola Amigos, Ello mah frens

03:58 <PinkieShy> In 2 years from now.

03:58 <PinkieShy> I'd like to build a intel machine if intel is still king of the hill ;)

03:59 <Thelema5> Hey there, KooK

03:59 <PinkieShy> my idea would be i7 intel core based, nvidia 1080, and either 1TB hdd or 500gb ssd :P

04:00 <Thelema5> I just noticed for the first time that spike sucks his thumb

04:00 <Thelema5> !Link https://youtu.be/s-_MVrViO-8

04:00 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

04:00 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Morning in Ponyville - MLP FiM Song [1080p] MP3

04:00 <KooK> People are talking about the giglehertz

04:00 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, I'm not much of hardware geek and don't understand much of that

04:01 <KooK> and the video boards

04:01 <KooK> and mother chips

04:01 <Thelema5> I would definately trust you to build a computer for methough!

04:01 <Thelema5> XD

04:01 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by ExplodingPonyToast: Bonus Music #96 (New Format!) [ http://tinyurl.com/y78sbdhj ]

04:01 <KooK> I wouldn't, because nvidia is balls

04:02 <KooK> and Intel is overrated

04:02 <KooK> and you don't need more than 100gb on a SSD

04:02 <KooK> Also

04:02 <KooK> Mac is better

04:02 <PinkieShy> Kook I'd love to see how intel beats amd threadripper

04:02 <KooK> Windows just likes to crash

04:02 <PinkieShy> I think the next gen of CPUs will be threadripper size..

04:03 <KooK> I have the new iPhone 8

04:03 <Thelema5> Is it waterproof?

04:03 <PinkieShy> and thus we might have another costly PC era :P

04:03 <KooK> I drive a Prius

04:03 <Thelema5> No you don't

04:03 <KooK> I only shop at whole foods

04:03 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i don't know how to drive xD

04:03 * Thelema5 snerks

04:03 <PinkieShy> I want to take driving lessons but i am scared xD

04:04 <KooK> Thelema5, actually, I sold my Saab and bought a Prius :D

04:04 <KooK> "Prius"

04:04 <Thelema5> You can do it!  It's really not scary unless you drive too fast

04:04 <KooK> Just, have somebody drive you to the interstate on-ramp, switch seats, and go for it

04:04 <Thelema5> Did you really?  That's very surprizing

04:04 <KooK> Hold on

04:05 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 in other news I've been having laughing spells since yesterday hardcore

04:05 <Thelema5> UNicorn power

04:05 <PinkieShy> i can laugh uncontrollable for 30min to hour xD

04:05 <Thelema5> Sounds painful

04:05 <PinkieShy> me and pinkie would get along together PERfectly xD

04:05 <KooK> Thelema5 https://images.autotrader.com/scaler/620/420/cms/images/cars/lexus/ct/2017/2017lexusct/263470.jpg

04:06 <Thelema5> That's a nice prius there, Kook.  XD

04:06 <KooK> They put a Prius drivetrain in a Lexus, so it's slow as balls, get's decent fuel mileage, and doesn't suck to be in or make you look pretentious

04:06 <Thelema5> Hmm.

04:07 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 my PC is going to undergo surgery by me next week hopefully..

04:07 <Thelema5> Good luck!

04:07 <PinkieShy> Motherboard change out.. :P

04:07 <Thelema5> You should install a prius drivetrain

04:07 <Thelema5> While you're at it

04:07 <KooK> So, even though the pedal on the right hand side basically just makes louder noises come from the engine, I typically average 42-45mpg, I can get 50+ if I drive like the average Prius owner, which is 10 under the speed limit.

04:07 <PinkieShy> To a computer that probably serious surgery isn't it thelema5

04:07 <PinkieShy> since you need the motherboard on a PC for it to work

04:08 <Thelema5> KooK you deserve a Tesla

04:08 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, it sounds like replacing a person's spine

04:09 <KooK> Seriously though, within a week of owning it I almost got rid of it because I tried to get on the interstate, and in doing so I attempted to speed up ahead of somebody to keep the flow of traffic from being disrupted.  When I put my foot in the throttle the engine was just like 'meh.'

04:09 <KooK> A Tesla would be a terrible idea for me

04:10 <KooK> I would fall asleep at the wheel and either end up out of state with no battery, or in the hospital.

04:11 <Thelema5> Heh

04:13 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 this is the board I'm getting to replace my current board https://static.gigabyte.com/Product/2/6378/2017080711134949_big.png

04:15 <KooK> Just do it right and get an MSI Board :D

04:15 <PinkieShy> Kook this socket is so old at this point gigabyte is the only one with a 2017 board of it xD

04:15 <Thelema5> Spike makes a good servant-friend

04:16 <PinkieShy> AM3+

04:16 <KooK> Sounds like you need a new CPU!

04:16 <PinkieShy> Kook to tighten the board you just do it finger tight right?

04:16 <PinkieShy> Kook well i just got this PC in April.. Its good enough to me for now :P

04:16 <DashedRainbows> MSI AMD boards have really hot vrm

04:16 <KooK> I normally snug it just a little beyond finger tight, but yeah, not much at all

04:17 <KooK> Actually, why am I recommending MSI?  They pissed me off

04:18 <KooK> DashedRainbows - It doesn't get above 60 degrees C

04:18 <DashedRainbows> The board itself heats up

04:18 <KooK> The hell on the board heats up?

04:18 <DashedRainbows> Specifically the voltage regulator

04:18 <KooK> Seriously, I can't overclock my I7-6800k and it kinda upsets me

04:19 <DashedRainbows> Oh

04:19 <DashedRainbows> It's an Intel board

04:19 <KooK> Correct

04:19 <DashedRainbows> I dunno then

04:19 <KooK> It runs for a bit but after about 15 minutes of gaming it crashes

04:20 <KooK> Everything is set properly, I'm 100% sure of that

04:41 <Thelema5> I was very young, early elementary grades... but I have fond memories.

04:41 <KooK> What are you talking about?  German Shepherds are sweethearts to everybody and playful to boot :D

04:41 <Thelema5> I was a young child, she stood guard over me  XD

04:42 <Thelema5> Or at least that's how I remember it

05:15 <Thelema5> Dangit, Why do I still have this halloween candy sitting about.  Of course I'm going to eat it

05:16 <Schism> I suggest stuffing it into the back of your freezer.

05:16 <Thelema5> Not a bad idea

05:16 * Thelema5 eats anouther reese's peanut butter cup

05:16 <PinkieShy> Schism just the guy i was looking for :D

05:16 * Schism dives away in fear.

05:16 <PinkieShy> Does motherboard's come with the standoffs and screws or will i need to buy them off a local shop?

05:17 <Schism> hmm.  I'd buy extras anyway.

05:17 <Schism> It really depends on the manufacturer and on a number of other factors -- oftentimes the standoffs are sold with the case, for example.

05:17 <PinkieShy> Hopefully a local shop will sell me some at a reasonable price :P

05:17 <Schism> Oh, they should be cheap as all get-out.

05:18 <Thelema5> (poor person's perspective): why jump the gun? See what they ship you and then buy what you need

05:18 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 maybe in another world Starlight is zoe XD

05:20 <Thelema5> ie. no computer store here for miles and miles and miles

05:21 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 we got to many xD

05:21 <Thelema5> Not a bad problem to have

05:22 <PinkieShy> there is 2 in conway, 3 in carolina forest i think and more at the beach

05:23 <DashedRainbows> Zoe Glimmer

05:26 <Thelema5> Hmm.  I've been in Conway, SC... years ago.  At a flea market or something

05:27 <Thelema5> Near Myrtle Beach

05:27 <Thelema5> But a bit inland?

05:28 <Thelema5> Strangely enough, that was the first place I ever tried a frozen coffee drink XD

05:29 <DashedRainbows> Man, the humane group is like really growing

05:29 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 we're getting a bowling alley :)

05:29 <PinkieShy> 810 bowling.

05:29 <PinkieShy> it's going to have a built in arcade, bar, and restaurant.

05:29 <Thelema5> Awesome!  i actually like bowling, but I'm not good at it at all.

05:30 * Schism should do Canadian-style bowling again sometime.

05:30 <PinkieShy> almost getting a dick's pawn shop, a senior living condo place, a new restaurant.. on top of those this year we gotten popeyes, KFC, and bojangles is suppose to be remodeling soon.

05:30 <Thelema5> Last time I went bowling was on a trip to Vermont, and I wound up injuring a toe which then developed into a gout flare-up.

05:30 <Thelema5> Not good times.

05:30 <PinkieShy> Its growing abit very fast xD

05:31 <PinkieShy> Bojangles is the best chicken

05:31 <Thelema5> I agreee.  Bojangles is best chicken, hooves down

05:31 <Thelema5> I wish they would expand north

05:32 <PinkieShy> They'd allow it if somebody up north would want to put one of them there.. Probably

05:33 <Thelema5> I also love their breakfast egg and sausage biscuit.  Best ever.

05:33 <PinkieShy> You're going to make me cry.

05:33 <PinkieShy> My grandma loved their sausage biscuits

05:34 * Schism hugs the PinkieShy. Should make sausage biscuits himself, sometime...

05:34 <Thelema5> They also used to make heart shaped somethings for valentine's day

05:34 <PinkieShy> Its boberries XD

05:34 <PinkieShy> Bo-berries.

05:34 <Thelema5> I have fond memories

05:35 <PinkieShy> Popeyes is just.. errm..

05:35 <Thelema5> Dangit, now I feel like a road-trip to visit bojangles and waffle-house

05:35 <PinkieShy> fries taste a bit odd and the mashed potatoes are just gross.

05:36 <Thelema5> Maybe I should actually do this.  For real. Like- this weekend

05:36 <Schism> Of course, then there is the evil that is KFC.  http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-3250

05:36 <PinkieShy> ha..

05:36 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 there used to be a bojangles in New york

05:36 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, is Shoney's still around?

05:36 <PinkieShy> But it closed down permanently apparently according to google

05:36 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 yea but they are doing something i don't like XD

05:37 <PinkieShy> Shoney's now sells Beer and wine.

05:37 <Thelema5> Do they still have that pecan roll?

05:37 <PinkieShy> yep lol

05:37 <Schism> "We never left the Shoney's!" </randomref>

05:37 <PinkieShy> Schism and Thelema5 rick and morty had shoney's on it XD

05:37 <PinkieShy> someone on discord didn't know it was a real place

05:38 <Thelema5> HEH.  I am seriously considering a trip down south past the blue-ridge to visit these places I used to love

05:38 <PinkieShy> Shoney's is another way the south is a big ol' hug :P

05:38 <Thelema5> Yus

05:38 <Schism> One place I miss, because we don't have it here: Sonic Drive-In.

05:38 <PinkieShy> omg

05:38 <Thelema5> And waffle house.  There's no other place like it.

05:38 <PinkieShy> Sonic Drive-in here has a place you can eat inside.

05:38 <PinkieShy> They always seem to mess up my order tho..

05:39 <Thelema5> Schism, we had a sonic here until two years ago when it finally closed.  So sad.

05:39 <Schism> Granted, if I want to make up a coney, I'll buy the stuff to make it.  It's not exactly hard.

05:39 <Schism> And that way I can add fried mushrooms to my coney dog.

05:39 <PinkieShy> I want to see checker's come here

05:39 <PinkieShy> I want a checker's burger again >:(

05:39 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, how about Krystal bugers?  That's another Carolina favorite

05:40 <Thelema5> I really don't think there's any outside of the region

05:40 <PinkieShy> I never heard of it O.o

05:40 <Thelema5> O.o

05:40 <Schism> I am glad that Harmony Lunch was bought out rather than getting torn down.  It's an 87-year-old greasy spoon diner.  <3

05:40 <Thelema5> http://krystal.com/

05:40 <Thelema5> Maybe it's a NORTH carolina thing

05:41 <PinkieShy> there is non here in Myrtle beach

05:41 <PinkieShy> but we have a Johnny rockets.

05:43 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Sean Brock And Anthony Bourdain Eat At The Waffle House

05:43 <Thelema5> Beware- it /is/ anthony Bourdain, so there may be some adult language

05:44 <DashedRainbows> Gah

05:44 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 shoney's in conway has been closed about 3 yrs now.. they said closed for relocating and guess what

05:44 <Thelema5> But YUS!  Waffle House is amazing.

05:44 <PinkieShy> earlier this year the beach told us they are looking at carolina forest for a new location :D

05:44 <DashedRainbows> The new medication is not really helping

05:44 <DashedRainbows> It's a bummer...

05:51 <Thelema5> That's unfortuate, DashedRainbows

05:52 <DashedRainbows> It's just not a good night

05:53 <Thelema5> It happens

05:53 * Filly_Nightmares sits on DashedRainbows

05:53 <DashedRainbows> My dad is really getting on my nerves

05:54 * DashedRainbows is so stressed she's a bad couch

05:54 * Filly_Nightmares kneads DashedRainbows

05:55 <DashedRainbows> Apparently thinking about offing myself is 'okay' to him as long as I don't actually do it

05:57 <DashedRainbows> I need to get out of the house more but last time I did it was super stressful, amazing, but scary

05:57 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, people think about all sorts of things.  Usually right-thinking prevails

05:58 <Thelema5> I don't relate on that, probably because I don't live with my dad.  I NEVER want to leave home

05:58 <Thelema5> My dad and I are at odds and only speak once or twice a year

05:59 <DashedRainbows> I'm usually fine, but sometimes ugh!

06:00 * Thelema5 nods

06:00 <DashedRainbows> Can't he comprehend I'll never be healthy and not take meds. That ship sailed long ago

06:01 <Thelema5> Sounds like he's living in a fantasy world

06:02 <DashedRainbows> Yes!

06:02 <DashedRainbows> Very much

06:02 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i just had another laughing spell xD

06:03 <PinkieShy> apparently ppl on discord told me i have the laugh that will make anybody around me laugh xD

06:03 <PinkieShy> I'd probably do good as a clown xD

06:04 <Thelema5> My family usually gets together on Thanksgiving, what little of my family remains.  This year though my sister is going elsewhere with her husband and my niece.  I feel a bit hurt about that, but I understand that she just can't stand to be around my father's lady-friend and her kids

06:04 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 walmart has my dad working Thanksgiving.. :/

06:04 <Thelema5> I'll miss them

06:04 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, at least it pay well

06:04 <Thelema5> *pays

06:05 <PinkieShy> He has been getting a ton of overtime lately :P

06:05 <DashedRainbows> I don't even know what I'll do Thanksgiving

06:05 <Thelema5> Overtime is great

06:05 <PinkieShy> We plan on having thanksgiving dinner a bit early

06:05 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, you can join us up here 1000 miles away to listen to people hate one each other

06:05 <PinkieShy> like by 2pm..

06:06 <PinkieShy> since my dad has to be to work by then.. usually

06:06 <Thelema5> Sounds lovely, I know

06:06 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i want to get out of the south tbh

06:06 <DashedRainbows> I care for my family but I can't drive or do much myself and my dad is even more isolated than me and my mom has a driving phobia

06:06 <DashedRainbows> Just ugh!

06:06 <PinkieShy> I want to move up north so far north that every christmas will be a white christmas.

06:06 <DashedRainbows> I don't want to be alone yet another day

06:07 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, if so you should think about Vermont.  It's where I would move if I could.

06:07 <PinkieShy> either there or Fairbanks Alaska :P

06:07 <Thelema5> Ooooh, too cold!

06:08 <DashedRainbows> If my sister came I could go with her, but not this year

06:08 <Thelema5> I have vacationed in Vermont for a couple of years and LOVE it there.  I've been pricing out homes there, but there aren't many jobs

06:08 <DashedRainbows> Good enough I guess

06:08 <DashedRainbows> I'd probably get wasted from emotional drinking

06:09 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, if you /do/ get out of the south- prepare to miss some stuff.

06:09 <Thelema5> I only lived there for 4 years, but I STILL miss it

06:09 <DashedRainbows> Texas is pretty awesome

06:10 <DashedRainbows> Except for no weed

06:10 <DashedRainbows> I guess I'll stick to booze, except UNOS

06:10 <Thelema5> Mostly, the pace of life, PinkieShy.  SC is unique in folks being relaxed and taking time with stuff.  Makes a world of difference

06:10 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 if i had to leave the usa ever xD I would go to London UK :D

06:11 <Thelema5> Northern cities? The pace of life is maddening

06:11 <PinkieShy> I like british accents xD

06:11 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 omg that reminds me..

06:11 <PinkieShy> earlier this yr i went through columbia SC with my dad and got a little lost but our phones helped :P

06:11 <Thelema5> Oh?

06:12 <PinkieShy> Its was just so huge of a city..

06:12 <PinkieShy> Huge to the point you get lost easy.. o.o

06:12 <Thelema5> Yeah, that'd a problem I hate about large cities.

06:12 <DashedRainbows> I'm blabbering though, I should go. Shouldn't waste the bandwidth. Night

06:12 <Thelema5> No!

06:13 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, I'll be even Texas legalizes Marijuana in the next 5 years

06:13 <Thelema5> There's a groundwell of support for it.

06:13 <DashedRainbows> One can only hope

06:14 <Thelema5> I expect that my state will get on board soon... with bordering states of VT and MA alreadying appproving it

06:14 <DashedRainbows> I doubt UNOS would like it though, but by then it might not matter

06:15 <DashedRainbows> I might have passed from infection anyway

06:16 <DashedRainbows> Anyway, tired and down so laters

06:18 <Thelema5> Feel better

06:22 <Thelema5> This is why I love Waffle House...because stuff like this is normal

14:19 <Jahnesta> What’s a HDD?

14:20 <Koopz> looked up the mentioned name on Google for one sec, first result links to a website about hoaxes

14:20 <Koopz> Hard Disk Drive

14:20 <Jahnesta> Maybe you should take that with a grain of salt

14:20 <Koopz> that's the thing where all your files of your computer are stored on

14:20 <Jahnesta> Yeah :P

14:23 <Koopz> there are also SSDs (Solid State Disk) which are smaller and use another way to store files using transistors ("Flash")

14:23 <Koopz> HDDs however use real disks, round things basically like CDs

14:24 <Jahnesta> And phones have SSd’s useally?

14:24 <Koopz> the only mobile device i can think of that had a HDD was the original iPod

14:26 <Jahnesta> That wasn’t a phone technically

14:26 <Jahnesta> You can’t call people with it oWo

14:26 <Koopz> exactly, but it was mobile :P

14:26 <Jahnesta> True

15:56 <Cepheid> Myself, I've been getting more energy because I changed my eating habits.

15:57 <Cepheid> I reduced the sugar I take in.  I still consume some from time to time, but not as much as I used to.

15:57 <Cepheid> Yesterday, all I ate that had sugar or added sugar in it was a coffee in the morning, and a pudding cup before bed.  The result is that I'm not getting tired because of sugar in my blood stream.

16:38 <Cepheid> Your father doesn't seem to fully understand what mental health is.

16:38 <DashedRainbows> Anyway, morning

16:39 <Cepheid> That was directed at Librarian, by the way.

16:39 <Librarian> The only mental isues i have is severe depresion

16:41 <Cepheid> I'd comment on the situation more, but anything I have to say is likely only going to make matters worse.

16:41 <DashedRainbows> Same here, I'll be quiet now

16:41 <Librarian> i appreciate the sentiment at anu rate

16:43 <Cepheid> All I will say is that you need to discuss your depression in greater depth with a specialist, and not hold back on any lingering thoughts on what's bothering you, no matter how improbable some of them are.

16:43 <Cepheid> Case in point, I recently started discussing some of the problems with my parents to my counselor, whom is thinking that may be partially attributable to my mood and mental health.

16:44 <Librarian> thats oribably the case here

16:45 <Cepheid> Seriously though, talk to someone.  Longer you hold it in, the more it will hurt you in the long run.  Plus they may be able to offer advice that can help.

20:12 <Cepheid> Ali, I have heard about those.

20:12 <Schism> Ali: Or at least, don't eat a lot of them.  Did you run into the sucralose issue?  

20:12 <Cepheid> I hear they are a nightmare on the digestive system.

20:13 <Thelema5> Are they CBD gummies?

20:13 <Ali> Schism, there's a lot of stories that they're pretty much act like a laxitive

20:13 <Cepheid> CBD?

20:13 <Schism> Sucralose does indeed act as a laxative, yes.

20:13 <Schism> And sugar-free gummy bears are chock full of them.  You CAN eat them, just fine, just don't eat the whole flippin' bag at once.

20:13 <Ali> And no, I've never had the issue myself, I have read the stories.

20:14 <Cepheid> Schism:  Heh.

20:14 <Cepheid> Hum.  That's a new technique that devs have been using on consoles to alleviate the issue of alpha transparency...

20:14 <Thelema5> Cannabidiol (CBD) is derived from marijuana and can be used to treat anxiety and depression

20:14 <Schism> Cepheid: Take it from a type-1 diabetic, heh.  I've gotta be careful eating sugar-free candy.

20:14 <Cepheid> Yep.

20:15 <Cepheid> I've mostly been avoiding candy as of late.

20:15 <Ali> I don't each much candy anymore either.

20:15 <Tempest-Shadow> you poor suckers and your blood problems! *Noms jammy biscuit* I pity thee!

20:16 <Cepheid> Thelema5:  I have no idea.  I just know that they're gummies made for getting high.  My sister's husband eats a few on a daily basis every night to avoid psychological issues and stress issues.

20:16 * Ali sits on Tempest-Shadow. "I have no such problem."

20:17 <Tempest-Shadow> I know you don't, lol

20:17 <Tempest-Shadow> but schism and Cepheid do

20:17 <Thelema5> Probably something similar to these, Cepheid https://www.diamondcbd.com/collections/chill-gummies

20:17 <Thelema5> I've thought of trying them myself

20:18 <CocoPommel> pee

20:22 <Jahnesta> I got my PC back :D

20:23 * Schism also peers at a miniature seedless watermelon.

20:23 <Cepheid> Apparently, at night, outside one of the early towns in Xenoblade 2, there is a roaming monster that is level 81.

20:24 <Schism> Hey Cephy, have some pineapple pizza.  https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DOEJsvfVwAAlvib.jpg  Also, huh.  o_O  The kind you have to run from in terror...

20:24 <Cepheid> Running won't work.  Even at 30+ levels above character level, monsters will one-hit you.

20:24 <Cepheid> And if they've spotted you, it's too late.

20:24 <Cepheid> I've seen that picture a few times now, Schism. :P

20:24 <CocoPommel> Butts

20:25 * DashedRainbows licks Jahnesta and gives him some slippers she found

20:25 <Jahnesta> I got new ones today oWo

20:26 * Jahnesta Snuggles the DashedRainbows

20:26 <Cepheid> I find it interesting how developers seem to be reverting back to old techniques for stuff.

20:27 <Cepheid> In this video I'm watching, they replaced alpha transparency with a stippling pattern.

20:27 <Cepheid> Which is what was used waaaaay back in the days of Quake 2.

20:28 <Cepheid> In a high enough resolution at an appropriate distance from the screen, the effect is almost impossible to tell apart from alpha transparency, with some added benefits.

20:30 *** Quits: Starlight_Glimmer (Seoson@SourSweet.Shadowbolts.EvilPonies) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

20:30 <Cepheid> Namely:  Alpha transparency, while nice, is friggen costly to do performance-wise.  A stippling pattern approach is much, much, MUCH faster.

20:31 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by The Illustrious Q: Today is EQLA's Final Day for Online Registration Discount Prices! [ http://tinyurl.com/y7febyup ]

20:31 <Cepheid> I'm going over everyone's heads, aren't I?

20:32 * Schism is just hungry enough that he can't really pay attention. But stippling... well, that is certainly workable.

20:32 <Jahnesta> I is not that big of a nerd xP

20:33 <Schism> If you've got 720p as your practical minimum, then might as well go for the functional solution that nobody's going to really notice.

20:34 <Cepheid> Except I've been seeing this in PS4 games as well.

20:35 <Cepheid> Usually for objects that might cover the screen.  The usuall approach here was to fade out the object using alpha transparency.

20:35 <Cepheid> But this absolutely KILLS performance to do.

20:36 <Cepheid> Turns out doing blending operations for alpha transparency on a 1080p+ image is time-consuming and slow to perform, even on hardware that's designed to multiply floating-point values quickly.

20:36 <Jahnesta> alpha :P

20:38 <Cepheid> Here, in this new approach, rather than do a bunch of multiply, divides, additions and subtractions, you just do a few bits of fast math(Addition/Subtraction, mostly), and check to see if there's a one or a zero in the stipple pattern image.  If it's a zero, don't draw.  If it's a one, draw.

20:38 <Cepheid> To replicate alpha transparency at multiple levels, just utilize multiple stipple patterns with greater and greater masking coverage.

20:39 <Cepheid> I could probably implement it in a day's worth of coding if I had a base to work with.

20:39 <Cepheid> I don't know why I just explained all of that.

20:40 <Cepheid> That said, actual alpha transparency is still used for a lot of effects in this game.  It appears to be a case of "Some special effects use stippling.  Others use alpha."
