00:00 <Phantasma_Eeria> I think I did a thing and somehow made him essential? He annoys me so much, I get along with Dwemer stuff better than I do him

00:00 <Cepheid> If you can access the console, you can remove his essential flag.

00:00 <Phantasma_Eeria> How do

00:03 <Cepheid> Tilde key to open the console.  Type "setessential 13bac 0" without the quotes, looks like.

00:05 <Cepheid> Alas, I got the bugged heimskr

00:05 *** Joins: KooK (KooK@Pony-t2bvrf.client.mchsi.com)

00:07 <Phantasma_Eeria> Which bugged Heimskr?

00:07 <Cepheid> Where he doesn't preach.

00:08 <Cepheid> It's apparently a bug in the "Legendary" patch for Skyrim.  And the unofficial patches are supposed to fix it, but..

00:08 <zompi> Ok... I'll try to sleep now a little

00:08 <zompi> Cya!

00:21 <Cepheid> You can add people to factions or remove them.

00:22 <Phantasma_Eeria> My god

00:22 <Phantasma_Eeria> Cepheid: which of the divines do you worship

00:23 <Cepheid> Azura.

00:24 <Phantasma_Eeria> Azura isn't a divine is she?

00:24 <Phantasma_Eeria> I thought they were just a Daedric Prince

00:25 <Cepheid> Right, right.

00:28 <Cepheid> Aaahahahaaaa

00:28 <Cepheid> http://i.imgur.com/MyPc88v.jpg

00:28 <Phantasma_Eeria> Off the top of my head the divines are Talos, Akatosh, Mara, Stendarr, and some others I can't remember

00:28 <Phantasma_Eeria> Is the guard attacking Heimskr

00:28 <Cepheid> Then none of those.

00:28 <Cepheid> And yes.

00:28 <Cepheid> The guard is attacking Heimskr.

00:29 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff #2123 (Art Compilation) [ http://tinyurl.com/jjt9p7r ]

00:30 <Tirek> Kinareth, Dibella, Zenithar, Julianos, and Arkay.

00:30 <Tirek> Woo. I remembered them all.

00:30 <Phantasma_Eeria> If I was to worship one it'd be Akatosh because who wouldn't want to worship a huge dragon

00:30 <Librarian> a huge time dragon

00:31 <Tirek> Then there's Lorkan, but he died.

00:31 <Phantasma_Eeria> What

00:31 *** Quits: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony) (Quit: Bye)

00:31 <Tirek> Lorkan was the one that convinced all the diety beings to create Nirn.

00:31 <Cepheid> http://i.imgur.com/HpBRAaX.jpg Nice shot, Whiterun Guard.

00:31 <Phantasma_Eeria> Tirek: I remember the effect of Arkay's amulet but not the name of the divine

00:32 <Phantasma_Eeria> Agreed that is a nice shot

00:32 <Tirek> A+ shot.

00:32 <Phantasma_Eeria> Also how many Daedric princes can you name

00:33 <Tirek> Azura, Boethia, Namira, Hercine, Sheogorath, Mehrunes Dagon, Jyggalag, Malacath. Uhh.

00:33 <Tirek> Meridia.

00:33 <hawthornbunny> Absinthe

00:33 <Tirek> Sanguine.

00:34 <KooK> Holy crap Solidworks is taking forever to load

00:34 <Tirek> Periyte.

00:34 <Tirek> Or is it Peryite?

00:34 * Cepheid spawns ALduin in Whiterun for a bit of fun.

00:34 <Tirek> Molag Bal.

00:35 <Tirek> I named 12. I don't remember any of the other ones.

00:35 <Phantasma_Eeria> It's peryite

00:35 <Tirek> Oh, Hermeus Mora.

00:35 <Tirek> Clavicus Vile.

00:36 *** Quits: Meeester (Meeester@Pony-3cs.2dq.192.98.IP) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

00:36 <hawthornbunny> Fedhas Madash

00:36 <Phantasma_Eeria> Who the fuck is jyggalag?

00:36 <Tirek> Jyggalag is the Daedric Prince of Logic and Order. He was so feared by the other Daedric princes that he was cursed to become Sheogorath.

00:37 <Phantasma_Eeria> So for all intents and purposes he's sheogorath, got it

00:37 <Tirek> At the turn of every age, he would transform back to Jyggalag to destroy the Shivering Isles, then become Sheogorath again.

00:37 <Phantasma_Eeria> Ah ok

00:37 *** Quits: Double (Double@Pony-uv9pi3.178-40-1.t-com.sk) (Quit: Nettalk6 - www.ntalk.de)

00:38 <Tirek> At least, until Oblivion, where your player character breaks the cycle and becomes Sheogorath, letting Jyggalag stay his own entity.

00:38 <Phantasma_Eeria> So let's see if I can deduce (through use of artifacts)

00:38 <Scootaloo> More like daedric NERDS

00:38 <Phantasma_Eeria> The missing peeps

00:39 <Tirek> Jyggalag was a nerd. He had deduced an algorithm that allowed him to predict any even that had, is, and will happen.

00:39 <Cepheid> Hmm..

00:39 <Tirek> Oh, Nocturnal.

00:39 <Tirek> I forgot her.

00:40 * Cepheid tries something crazy.

00:40 <Tirek> I think that's everyone.

00:41 <Tirek> No, there's Vaermina too. I looked up to be sure.

00:41 <Tirek> So I got 15 out of 16.

00:41 <Phantasma_Eeria> Azura's star/ Black Star - Azura, Ebony Mail - Boethia, ring of namira - namira, Volundruung (or something crazy and orcish like that) - malacath, Dawnbreaker - Meridia, Sanguine Rose - Sanguine, Spellbreaker - Peryite, Mace of Molag Bal - Molag Bal

00:42 <Tirek> Er, Mephala. So 15 out of 17.

00:42 <Phantasma_Eeria> Wabbajack - Sheogorath/Jyggalag

00:44 <Phantasma_Eeria> That skill book thing - Hermeus Mora, Masque of Clavicus Vile - Clavicus Vile, Saviour's Hide/Ring of Hircine - Hircine, Skull of Corruption - Vaermina, Mehrune's Razor - Mehrunes Dagon

00:46 <Tirek> In Skyrim, Sheogorath and Jyggalag are two different entities.

00:46 *** Quits: Scootaloo (wobniaR@Monoshy.Hydra.Fighter.64) (Connection closed)

00:46 <Tirek> Because your player character from Oblivion mantles Sheogorath until there is no longer any difference.

00:47 <Phantasma_Eeria> Ah well

00:47 *** Joins: wobniaR (wobniaR@Monoshy.Hydra.Fighter.64)

00:47 <Tirek> Jyggalag doesn't make an appearance in Skyrim at all, though. I presume he'd never want to involve himself in the workings of mortals because he created the ultimate spoiler and spoiled himself.

00:48 <Phantasma_Eeria> What's the name of the bs skill book for which  there used to be an exploit to dupe it millions of times

00:50 <Cepheid> Blacksmith book?

00:51 <Cepheid> Heck, why not just use a command to set your skill to 100?

00:51 <Phantasma_Eeria> No the one you get from transcribing the transmundane

00:51 <Cepheid> Oghma Infinium.

00:52 <Phantasma_Eeria> That one

00:53 <Tirek> Oh, right. It would have helped if you said it was a daedric artifact.

00:54 <Phantasma_Eeria> What's Mephala's artifact, I think it's the one you have to beat the shade bloke to get, not sure

02:21 *** theSnuggle`filly is now known as sleepy`coco

02:22 <Cepheid> Ow.

02:22 <ADragonDreaming> So I haven't been on the server because apparently peaceful only slowed down the enemies and we got ganked by a medium biter.

02:23 <Cepheid> Guh.

02:23 <Cepheid> Lemme check something.

02:24 <ADragonDreaming> If we do restart or the like there are some options.

02:24 <Cepheid> Last autosave appears to have been on December 26th at 21:22

02:25 <Cepheid> So a little after 4 hours after I did the rollback.

02:25 <ADragonDreaming> That's about right for when I discovered a medium biter.

02:26 <ADragonDreaming> We'd need to ramp up military and wall-building.

02:26 <Cepheid> That's what I think too, yes.  And now that I finished Skyrim's main story, I can focus on other games a bit.

02:26 <Cepheid> What would you prefer, start anew or..?

02:26 <ADragonDreaming> I'd say we've learned some things.

02:27 *** Joins: Muffin_Spectacles (Muffin_Spec@Pony-14vpoi.cable.rcn.com)

02:27 <ADragonDreaming> So. If we regen, I have some world-gen suggestions.

02:27 *** Joins: DerpyFIM4 (DerpyFIM4@is.obsessed.with.being.crazy)

02:27 <Cepheid> Regen's fine.

02:27 <Cepheid> But, I think there's a way to use the game to check how a map will turn out.

02:28 *** Joins: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony)

02:29 <Cepheid> The game uses a pre-existing save file, basically.  So long as it's a save file with a randomly generated map, it can be used for the server base.

02:29 <DerpyFIM4> I can't figure out how to start it mid-game.

02:29 <Cepheid> That said, go generate some maps, get the details you used, and the seed/map exchange string, and I can generate the map.

02:29 <DerpyFIM4> So I always end up starting over.

02:32 *** Quits: Pony_61905 (The_Greene@Pony-ch9.vi4.117.185.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

02:32 <Cepheid> Basically:  Generate a map, save the game.  Go to load game, and click "Map Exchange String"

02:32 <Cepheid> Copy the string and send it to me.  I can use it to generate the exact same map.

02:32 <ADragonDreaming> Or use the map editor.

02:32 <Cepheid> That works too.

02:32 <ADragonDreaming> Do you have any preferences for world-gen?

02:35 <Cepheid> Not as such, really.  What did you have in mind?

02:35 <Cepheid> Also, turns out "peaceful mode" still spawns enemies.  Just stops them from attacking first.

02:38 <Cepheid> I get the impression your earlier suggestions were to set the starting area to large.

02:40 <ADragonDreaming> I put frequency for iron, copper, etc. to low, size to big, and richness to good. Enemy bases to very low, very small, and very good.

02:41 <Cepheid> So we'll have to travel far to find resources.

02:41 <ADragonDreaming> potentially.

02:42 <ADragonDreaming> also, map exchange string can't be generated from map editor maps, oddly.

02:43 <Cepheid> Load up the map in Custom Scenario, save a game, then go to Load Game, and click on the save game.

02:43 <Cepheid> But I'm not sure I can use the Map Exchange String on the headless server anyways, so..

02:43 <Cepheid> Lemme just change the config.

02:44 <ADragonDreaming> tried that, it said no.

02:44 <Cepheid> Very well then.

02:44 <ADragonDreaming> anyway, I adjusted some things.

02:45 <Cepheid> Tell me the adjusted settings and I'll set 'em.

02:45 <ADragonDreaming> pmed you the string

02:45 <DerpyFIM4> Is it a secret or something? :P

02:46 <Cepheid> ADragonDreaming:  There's 4 or 5 lines that need to be copied.

02:46 <Cepheid> And provided.

02:46 <DerpyFIM4> oh

02:46 <ADragonDreaming> water, normal/med, iron and copper vlow/big/good, stone coal low/big/good, oil low/med/good, enemy vlow/vsmall/good

05:03 <Thelema5> Sheeseh

05:04 <Thelema5> Welcome back!

05:04 <StarStream> yea

05:05 * Thelema5 is about to sample a philly Cheese Steak Slim Jim which was gifted to him this holiday season

05:05 <StarStream> nice

05:05 <Thelema5> O.o

05:05 <Thelema5> It is not pleasant.

05:06 <Thelema5> Nor is it unpleasant

05:06 * CleverDerpy sits and derps

05:31 <KooK> Thelema5, what is @sethisto_EQD?

05:31 <CleverDerpy> KooK, correct

05:31 <CleverDerpy> good job on the daily double

05:32 <Thelema5> The twitter handle for the head of EQD, as you asked

05:32 <KooK> How much did I win?

05:32 <KooK> Oh...

05:32 <KooK> http://i.imgur.com/iwB4QWM.jpg - My unicorn, once again.  I've been searching for this fuel tank vent for about a year.

05:33 <KooK> I had to buy the entire fuel tank and cut it out of there myself

05:33 <Divide> Hmm, three passes now without errors on Memtest86.  Should I go for a fourth before I tear this machine apart and put her back together, better, faster, harder, stronger?

05:33 * CleverDerpy gives KooK a pile of muffin

05:33 * Divide noms upon CleverDerpy's tail. :9

05:33 <CleverDerpy> here's your prize~

05:33 * CleverDerpy squeaks and turms around

05:34 <Thelema5> KooK, it looks like the humidification chamber on my bedside humidifier

05:34 * Divide turns with the CleverDerpy!

05:34 <CleverDerpy> derp?

05:34 * CleverDerpy keeps turning

05:34 <CleverDerpy> where did they go?

05:34 * Divide wanders around like a funfair.

05:35 <KooK> Thelema5 - What it's for is so your fuel tank can suck air in as the fuel level goes down.  But it's spring loaded so if the car tips on its side or completely over the fuel wont run out.

05:35 * CleverDerpy hugs Divide

05:36 <CleverDerpy> I found youuuuu~

05:36 * Divide snugs the CleverDerp! "This month is terribad."

05:36 <CleverDerpy> Derpy is sowwy to hear that...

05:36 * CleverDerpy nuzzles them and purrs

05:37 <Divide> This is why Schism's not here: Nocturne may have crashed...

05:37 <Thelema5> KooK, makes sense- but for the average driver?  Not so much

05:37 <CleverDerpy> schism got hurt?!

05:37 * CleverDerpy whimpers

05:37 * Divide is Schism! And is fine.

05:37 <KooK> Thelema5 - That is a Ford factory part, even your car has something like that.

05:37 <CleverDerpy> oooh, oki

05:38 * Thelema5 tried to fix nocturne with hugs

05:38 * CleverDerpy puts a bandage on it

05:38 <Divide> Nocturne is my desktop compy.  I have Nocturne, Adagio, Pizzicato, Largo, and a few others...

05:38 <CleverDerpy> all better~

05:38 * Thelema5 applies fixes to nocturne

05:39 <Divide> I'm just making sure of a few things before I go into the hardware again and unseat/reseat everything.

05:39 <Thelema5> noooo!  you can make it

05:39 * CleverDerpy gets Thelema5 a cloth so they don't get overheated

05:39 <Divide> Ehgfhn.  The hard drives are fine.  I think it's the motherboard, to be quite honest.

05:40 <KooK> http://i.imgur.com/CcprQ9a.jpg

05:40 <CleverDerpy> Derpy is here to help~

05:40 <Divide> I'll be disabling aspects thereof later.  Right now, I'm celebrating the end of a few years of employment with a stiff drink.

05:41 <Divide> Prospects are lined up, no worries there.

05:42 <Thelema5> Thelema5 salutes!

05:42 <KooK> Thelema5 Thelema5 salutes!

05:43 <Thelema5> What is work, but the leasing of the soul for cash?

05:46 <wobniaR> I doooo

05:47 <wobniaR> I know what it's like to be broke i wasn't making monies until about a year ago when i got an internship here

05:47 <Divide> I ... might have some pay banked.

05:47 <Thelema5> I've not had a raise in 6 years, which means that considering the average cost of living adjustment- I make less now than I did when I started

05:47 <wobniaR> You need a raise

05:48 <Thelema5> Not going to happen, tough.  I'll be lucky to keep my job past this season

06:43 <KooK> Vomit

06:44 <Electron> Why do you need vodka, KooK?

06:44 <Divide> SunsetShimmer: Oh, OKAY!  Then let's get started with my two maternal grandparents winding up in the hospital, myself doing so throughout the year - always a joy - and then we can get to my father doing so, but let's skip over the Trump election which promises nuclear war and head to me losing my job, my diabetes landing me in the hospital twice, my computer dying on me with no indications

06:44 <Divide> whatsoever, and finally my bank telling me that I owe them $2,000 due to a clerical error.  How's that for a light?

06:44 <KooK> For white Russians

06:44 <SunsetShimmer> Blinding.

06:44 <Electron> Err... that explains like a lot.

06:45 <KooK> ?

06:45 <Divide> That.  Is what I have been dealing with of late.  I'm sorry.  I shouldn't snap, but when everything piles up like that, it's hard not to.

06:45 <SunsetShimmer> Divides blowing a gasket, that's all...understandably so.

06:45 <Electron> /Sarcasm/

06:46 <Divide> Yes, I know it was sarcasm.  I don't blame anyone here for that, and I'm sorry to unwind.

06:46 * CleverDerpy boops Divide

06:46 <CleverDerpy> Derpy is here for you

06:46 <Divide> Well, sorry to unwind on you folks.

06:46 * Divide hugs back.

06:46 * CleverDerpy giggles

06:47 <Electron> Now THAT explains now, KooK.

06:47 <KooK> It's vodka, creme, and coffee liqueur

06:47 <Divide> 2016 just hasn't been a very good year, that's all.  And when one thing after another hits you hard, it's difficult to define the snapping point.  I'm sorry if I've been more than unusually sarcastic with everyone.

06:48 <SunsetShimmer> As a friend of mine posted on facebook: I shall gladly stay up on new years eve and watch this dumpster fire of a year die.

06:48 <Divide> (That's not a typo.  If I'm usually sarcastic, you know I'm in my prime.)

06:48 <Divide> Sounds about right.  2016 can go right away and never come back.

06:49 <SunsetShimmer> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnGaCAHhGfo - just enjoy some auditory delights! ^^

06:49 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

06:49 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Thomas Bergersen - Starvation

06:49 <desert> any musical pones on?

06:50 <desert> i need somepony who can transpose chords and about 2 or 3 pones with instruments that go well with a ukulele

06:50 <Divide> Yeah, but not in a place to actually appreciate it or do anything therewith.

06:51 <Divide> Your average acoustic guitar tends to pair well with a ukelele.

06:51 <desert> iv been having an idea about a song thats inspired by the resent election

06:51 <Electron> Did you taste it before, KooK?

06:51 <Divide> A bass would override it... also, if you're pulling that sort of string, so to speak, you might want a flute.

06:51 *** PTP is now known as |Sleep|

06:52 <desert> ehh,  im not sure a flute would work with the song

06:52 <Electron> I got bass! :D

06:52 <Divide> What of a clarinet?  What sort of a song do you mean?

06:52 *** Quits: KooK (KooK@Pony-t2bvrf.client.mchsi.com) (Quit: Mutter: www.mutterirc.com)

06:52 * Electron enjoys playing his bass

06:53 <desert> take the song "whisky before breakfast",  and replace parts of the song with "we've elected trump to lead us"   so its "lord preserve us and protect us,  we've elected trump to lead us"

06:54 <Divide> E...gh.  It's hard to really use the ukelele for a dirge.

06:54 * Divide snarks, "Considering the subject, I'd be tempted to use bagpipes."

06:59 <Jet_Cirrus> Oh.. u ok

07:00 <Divide> I think I'm going to pause on this.  A touch upset by a few things.

07:00 <Jet_Cirrus> and why am i getting ads for a pc thats is 550$ with a i3 proccessor

07:01 <desert> pre-made PCs tend to be not all that good

07:01 <Divide> You should see some of the models out there.

07:01 <Gladiolus> if it's under 600 generally it's crap

07:01 <Jet_Cirrus> yeah i can tell im getting i5 6500k or a i7

07:01 <Jet_Cirrus> yeah

07:02 <Jet_Cirrus> im going to build my new pc this year :)

07:02 <Divide> I've got an AMD 8320... it's okay, but not the very best.

07:02 <desert> esp in the PSU,  iv seen reviews for PSUs on jonnyguru that ranged from "top of the top shelf" to "can't even output the rated watts"

07:02 <desert> at least one tried to kill the tester's equipment with a ripple in the volts

07:03 <Jet_Cirrus> lol

07:03 <desert> tester mentioned that that much of a ripple could take out some of the case fans connected to it

07:03 <Divide> Starting to wonder about that one...

07:03 <Divide> Not really, but it's still eyebrow-raising.

07:04 <Jet_Cirrus> make sure to unplug your pc in a lightning storm

07:04 <desert> and if it can take out a DC case fan..  your CPU is history

07:05 <Divide> desert: My desktop decided to furnish the worst of all possible error codes at me today, after trying to refresh the damned thing and running half the terminal commands I could think of in a recovery mode.

07:06 <desert> others..   lacked parts and still managed to run (look up "gutless wonders")    and a few even blew up and tossed parts around in there casings

07:06 <CleverDerpy> good morning~

07:06 <Divide> That's some impressive overvoltage, there.

07:06 <Jet_Cirrus> Hello :) CleverDerpy

07:07 <StarStream> well currently there is a 7000 series gonna release Jet_Cirrus

07:07 <StarStream> the kaby lake series

07:07 <CleverDerpy> hey, any of you on android?

07:07 <Divide> Well, I have an Android tablet.  I don't do smartphones.

07:07 <Jet_Cirrus> StarStream i will look out for that one thanks for reminding me

07:08 <CleverDerpy> just a heads up if you're on android and like Nintendo stuff, pre-registration has started for super Mario run

07:08 <Divide> No.

07:08 <Jet_Cirrus> im waiting for mario go CleverDerpy

07:08 <Jet_Cirrus> btw thats a joke

07:08 <SunsetShimmer> Oh yeah, but it'll still cost ten bux

07:08 <Jet_Cirrus> 10..

07:08 <SunsetShimmer> I mean its not awful, but still...for a runner, thats steep'ish

07:08 <CleverDerpy> true, just a heads up\

07:08 <Divide> I've heard enough about Super Mario Run on iOS, and frankly speaking, Nintendo could have done far better.

07:08 <Jet_Cirrus> te.n

07:09 <CleverDerpy> 10n

07:09 <Jet_Cirrus> jesus

07:09 <SunsetShimmer> Nintendo went the pretty lazy route

07:10 <Jet_Cirrus> i think there doing this to get there company out more because they are taking more risks like the switch

07:10 * Electron waves at CleverDerpy

07:11 <Divide> I... am not sure how to feel about the Switch.  If I were to use one word to describe the thing, it would be 'gimmicky'.

07:12 <SunsetShimmer> I don't think it's a bad gimmick, it works as an idea

07:12 <Jet_Cirrus> i would drop the think when i die from a dragon on the switch

07:12 <Gladiolus> Nintendo always does gimmicks, they gave up on HARD CORE consoles, for the better I think.

07:12 <Gladiolus> I am pretty interested in the switch.

07:12 <Divide> Yeah, but, er... well, that's true.

07:12 <SunsetShimmer> Nintendo don't really think the same way as other dev's

07:12 <Gladiolus> I bought a 3DS and like it, that + a tv connection? I'm sold.

07:13 <Divide> I'm going to hold my reservations.  After all, we know how they handled the NES Classic.

07:13 <Jet_Cirrus> i got a question Black widow stealth or the  Black widow original (keyboard)

07:13 <SunsetShimmer> It's their next console, divide, I doubt they'd do that for a major system

07:14 <Divide> I dunno... remember the PS2 zombie outbreak of some years back?

07:14 <SunsetShimmer> That was theeen.

07:14 <SunsetShimmer> nobody has an excuse now

07:15 <Divide> The really bad ideas like to come back for another turn every now and then.

07:15 <SunsetShimmer> Sure, silly small items are easy to stagger and screw up...but items you plan to actually utilise for consumers long term useage and continued marketing? Not such a thing you just casually screw up.

07:16 <SunsetShimmer> the real problem, of course, won't be availability...it'll be the library.

07:16 <Divide> I like your world; let's live there.

07:16 <SunsetShimmer> Well, when you look at the last few consoles...nobodys really messed up supply THAT badly.

07:17 <SunsetShimmer> at least on a scale of the nes classic

07:17 <Divide> Yea, but... is that really messing up supply?

07:18 <Divide> That demand practically drove up the cost on its own and ensured that it'll keep selling for at least a year.

07:18 <SunsetShimmer> On a basic level, they didn't really make it as available as they should

07:19 <SunsetShimmer> plus it was you who brought the nes classic into this originally. :P

07:20 <Divide> True, but I was using it as a gimmick Nintendo was selling.

07:21 <Divide> And furthermore regarding how they've been handling things of late.  I wasn't able to get a copy of the latest Monster Hunter on the grounds that the local stores got - collectively - two copies.

07:22 <Divide> I'm in the middle of a city and somewhat less than obliged to buy a Nintendo Store gift card which has just enough money to buy Cooking Mama.

07:22 <Jet_Cirrus> brb

07:22 <Divide> (Money LEFT, I should say.)

07:23 <Gladiolus> ps2 zombie outbreak?

07:24 <Divide> Back in the 'oughts, SONY didn't release enough PS2 consoles to go around.  The end result was somewhat like what you see with the NES Classics.

07:25 <Divide> People stumbling from store to store, mumbling, 'gaaaaaames'.

07:25 <Gladiolus> If I remember right that was due to problems with shipping.

07:25 <Divide> Amidst a few other concerns, like how PS2s could guide missiles.

07:25 <Gladiolus> "Apparently, there was a problem with the manufacturing process at the Nagasaki factory, resulting in a low yield of the Graphics Synthesizer chips. Upon realizing the problem, Sony reduced the planned number of systems from 1,000,000 to 500,000, and that's how many systems launched in America. However, there was another problem. The Nagasaki factory was still unable to produce even 500,000 chips. So, Sony had to shift production back to

07:25 <Gladiolus> the Kokubu factory."

07:25 <Gladiolus> oh lmao

07:26 <Gladiolus> pff anything can guide a missile, if people got upset over the ps2 doing it it was more politics than anything

07:26 <Divide> Yeah, when the stories broke, the entire hacking community threw up their hands and shouted in collective unison, "I can guide a missile with my TI-86 and a stick of gum!"

07:28 <Divide> Supposedly, though, it was this big gigantic storm of sound and fury.

07:29 <Divide> Naturally, this led to more hackers buying PS2s just so they could take them apart.  Which led to rather more pertinent concerns.

07:34 <Gladiolus> such as wat

07:35 <Divide> The cracking of the PS2 in record time, amidst other such things.

07:36 <Divide> I think the only other console which ever came close to the PS2 was the Dreamcast.

07:38 <ADragonDreaming> The dreamcast was cracked so quickly because it was basically running Windows.

07:39 <Divide> The PS2 and the Dreamcast were practically the holy grail of all-in-one boxen.  The one because it had more holes than a block of swiss cheese which had been savaged by a swarm of termites, and the other because it was practically open to everyone who ever wanted to look at it.

07:40 <ADragonDreaming> btw Divide.

07:40 <ADragonDreaming> Cepheid and I regenerated the server.

07:40 <Divide> Which would be relevant if I hadn't spent the last 28 hours attempting to repair Nocturne to no result.

07:41 <ADragonDreaming> That is unfortunate.

07:41 <Divide> I'm on pass 4/4 on a memtest86+ run because it's entirely possible that something has caused a fault in the RAM, the video card, or sixteen thousand other possible items.

07:42 <Divide> I want, dearly want, to think it's not just a hard drive fault, because we all know what that entails.

07:43 <Divide> On a positive note, one attempted boot resulted in a flashing screen and reload of the drivers, looping.  This implies a potential video card fault, which can oft be resolved with a simple reseating.

07:43 <CleverDerpy> Divide, would you like a cookie?

07:43 <Divide> No, but if you give it to Adra, I bet it'll be a Yoshi's Cookie.

07:43 <CleverDerpy> awww...

07:44 <CleverDerpy> ADragonDreaming, would YOU like a cookie?

07:44 <Cepheid> And Schism?  The map's a bit skewed.  And aliens are aggressive.

07:44 <Divide> Cepheid: By the way.

07:45 <Cepheid> Anyways, you were saying?

07:45 *** The_Greener is now known as Lord_Greener

07:46 <Divide> Following memtest86+ and a reseating of the requisite items, have you any further suggestions?  I've already attempted a Win8 refresh to no avail.

07:46 <Gladiolus> straight up formatting

07:47 <Cepheid> That would be the next real step, yes.

07:47 <Divide> Here's the other half of the punchline.

07:47 <Divide> I installed Windows 8 over Windows 7 years ago and no longer have the key.

07:48 <Divide> Before you go any further - yes, yes, I KNOW I can put a keygrabber onto a USB drive, thank you.

07:49 <Gladiolus> .3.

07:49 <CleverDerpy> hiya hugbat

07:49 <Gladiolus> Win10 activates the hardware itself by connecting it to windows activate servers or something, maybe 8 does too

07:49 * Gladiolus hugbats CleverDerpy

07:50 * CleverDerpy hugderps back

07:50 <Divide> Not for a new installation.

07:50 <Divide> So I think I might need to command-prompt my way in and start copying files onto a third hard drive - which I don't currently have - before I can do a Reset.

07:50 <Cepheid> Really?  Cause my dad did it with a laptop just a few days ago.  8.1 activated without entering a key.

07:50 <Divide> Ehm?  Did you do a Refresh or a Reset?

07:50 <CleverDerpy> you can't activate 8, but 8.1 does better

07:51 <CleverDerpy> the issue is availablity

07:51 <Divide> I guess that could work...

07:51 <Divide> If I pull a Reset, though, I'd still need to back everything - EVERYTHING - up.

07:51 <Cepheid> Complete re-install.

07:52 <CleverDerpy> how does windows reinstall itself?

07:52 <Divide> Which, right now... egh, doesn't really work...

07:52 <CleverDerpy> like, since you are wiping it

07:52 <CleverDerpy> how does it have to info then to rebuild

07:52 <Divide> For a reset?  It doesn't.

07:52 <CleverDerpy> oooooh

07:52 <Gladiolus> format and install DOS 6 .w.

07:53 <Divide> For a refresh, it actually pulls that data, puts it aside, and then starts creating a new instance of Windows.

07:53 <CleverDerpy> oki, well, that answers my question

07:53 * Divide baps Gladiolus. "Stop confusing the poor Derpy."

07:54 <Divide> Anyway.  The 'Reset your PC' clears everything.  'Refresh your PC' installs Windows, and then puts most of what you had on there back.

07:55 <Divide> Well, some of what you had.  A little bit.

07:55 * Cepheid flops off to bed.

07:55 * Gladiolus installs MS-DOS 6 on CleverDerpy .w.

07:56 <Divide> interestingly, supposedly Microsoft only formats the Windows partition, leaving the others alone, when you reset Windows.

07:57 <Divide> This is not, and I shall put this very pointedly, _*/NOT\*_ something on which you should rely.

11:07 <Divide> When you work at a job, a certain amount of your pay is withheld.  This depends upon the industry where you work.  Some places, it might be 5%, some it might be 10%.  You'll want to doublecheck on that.

11:07 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Is that reserved for taxes or is it payed after back to you or...?

11:08 *** Quits: BubbleBerry (uid109338@Pony-dif3jc.brockwell.irccloud.com) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)

11:08 <Divide> That's where I'm coming from.  SOME is reserved for taxes, soem for other items.  You will always want to check up on your payroll.

11:08 <Divide> some*

11:09 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> O-ohkay

11:09 <Divide> In regards to taxes, you'll want to check how much is reserved for X, Y, and Z.  Trust me, the end acronyms are no less sensible.

11:10 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> E-english?

11:11 <Divide> Unless you opt out, you're paying $2/week to the United Way.

11:11 <Divide> But in regards to income tax...

11:13 <Finwe> Messrs Divide and SkippeZ_ShadoW.

11:13 * Finwe dips his hat.

11:13 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Woah

11:13 <Divide> Look up how much is being paid each year federally, how much is being paid the state, how much is being paid to the city.  Make sure that your employer isn't siphoning things off.

11:13 <Finwe> *tips

11:14 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> ... UK doesn't have states so idk if it's different here

11:14 <Divide> Either way.  Keep track of your finances.

11:15 <Finwe> You can ignore the federal layer.

11:15 <Finwe> Consider what is paid to the EU instead.

11:15 <Finwe> ... while you still can.

11:16 <Divide> This is something they will never, ever, EVER teach you in public school.

11:16 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> No, my of teacher got unnecessarily angry at the mention of me saying why don't we learn how to pay taxes

11:17 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Apparently we were told in year 8, I never remember that

11:17 <Divide> Nobody ever does.

11:18 <Finwe> If you earn something, you pay taxes. If you buy something, you pay taxes. If you inherit something, you pay taxes.

11:18 <Finwe> Not much to learn there.

11:19 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I hate inheritance tax

11:19 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Your taking money from a dead person, who promised it to their family

11:19 <Finwe> Unless you earn a lot, and mostly as profit from finances. Then you can save substantial amounts by paying your taxes in an optimal way.

11:23 <Finwe> I did, too.

11:24 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yeah isn't that when you get payed for paying taxes optimally?

11:24 * Electron applies taxes to SkippeZ_ShadoW's income

11:24 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Nu

11:31 <Sour_Sweet> Taxes? Those are for poor people

11:31 <Sour_Sweet> I guess that includes me 6_9

11:32 <Divide> Taxes, by and large, are a percentage of your wage - and then another percentage of what you spend.

11:34 <Sour_Sweet> I meant income taxes specifically and the fact that the upper class seems to be good at avoiding those :P

11:48 <Divide> Okay.  One thing at a time.

11:49 <Divide> :et

11:49 <Divide> Let's... see what having a single monitor does.

11:53 <Divide> Same again.  Alright then.  Safe mode with network settings, you jerk installation.

11:53 <Iks> whats the issue

11:55 <Divide> Oh, it keeps flashing and attempting to reparse the drivers and card nonsensically when it tries to grok an actual screen.

11:55 <Iks> hmmm if you got windows 10 the solution is to get windows 7

11:56 <Divide> Mneh, it's 8.1.

11:56 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> 8 was nasty

11:56 <Divide> 8 had its points.  10, meanwhile, is nothing more than a waste of time and money.

11:57 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> How? It's like 7 but just a new hud

11:57 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Baso

11:57 *** Joins: desert (desert@Pony-01s5vn.freevpn.me)

11:57 <Iks> well then the solution is to replace 8.1 with 7

11:58 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> 7 was probably the best of theatest ones

11:58 <Iks> I hope when the support for 7 gets dropped that Russia will have an alternative ready

11:58 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> What like Windows XP Soviet edition?

11:59 <Iks> nah XP is too old... there were legitimate reasons to switch to 7 for me

11:59 <Divide> Now I know what went wrong.  That blasted windows update from a few weeks back.

11:59 <Iks> shocking...

11:59 <Iks> thats why i update my windows maybe twice a year

12:01 <FreezeFrame> 8.1 and 10 don't really let you do that.

12:01 <Iks> like i said... switch to 7

12:01 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> They do background auto updates sometimes without even telling you

12:01 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Which I'm surprised is legal

12:02 <Iks> well its not... i think they had to take it out for the EU

12:02 <desert> win 10 has only 2 update settings  "now" and "one month after now"

12:02 <Iks> poor US schmucks

12:02 <FreezeFrame> They warned you they would in the stuff you didn't read.

12:02 <desert> and win 10 will mess with your BIOS

12:02 <FreezeFrame> desert: Not quite, It does have "I will choose when" IF you have a Professional Edition.

12:03 <desert> oh,  but what home users will pay for that?

12:03 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> People use home edition?

12:03 <FreezeFrame> If they took the free one, yes.

12:03 <Iks> those who dont have a borrowing link

12:04 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Oh... We did... I think... Lemmie check

12:05 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> But no, coz the internet is easy, but ctrl alt delete takes years

12:05 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> 10/10 processing

12:06 <FreezeFrame> I thought ctrl alt delete took overwrought writing.

12:08 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> This PC has been loading hours of f1 but still hasn't loaded the properties of disk c

12:09 <desert> then the 10/10 processing score is wayy off,  or your C partition is huge as heck

12:10 <desert> or explorer.exe stopped responding

12:10 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> We've had a sorta problem before where c drive was at 100% with as much as 11second response times

12:11 <desert> ok..  now that sounds like a bad HDD

12:11 <desert> what does the SMART data say?

12:11 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> We cleared it by reinstalling system mechanic and defragging it

12:12 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Damnit same problem... Ech

12:12 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> 10350ms

12:13 <desert> you should run a SMART test and see what the number of power on hours is

12:13 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> What's sat

12:14 <desert> SMART is a HDD's self testing firmware

12:15 <desert> heres a link to a program that can read the SMART data off a HDD   https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/Download

12:15 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Oh gosh this is bad

12:15 <Divide> Okay, THIS might be of some use... maybe.  Restarting in safe mode after this fails.

12:15 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> It can't even play the unstuttered warning sound that it will request permission

12:15 <Divide> As it does... as it always will...

12:15 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> And it's frozen

12:16 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> F- this is my family computer

12:16 <desert> is the computer hot?

12:16 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Nah

12:17 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I think the disk is damaged as well

12:17 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> But my dad isn't gonna just go buy one

12:17 <desert> if its only the HDD thats bad its not hard to fix it

12:17 <Iks> well usually what you do it put the drive into another pc and check it out that way

12:17 <Iks> why trying to boot from it?

12:18 <desert> but it can take a while to reinstall everything

12:18 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> got the notification finally

12:18 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> C is the programme disk, while d is files... My dad set it up that way

12:19 <Iks> not reinstalling... checking the drive and such, making a backup if possible and then if all else fails reformat and reinstall... oooor making a clone of the current drive, format it and clone back again

12:19 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Woah... Calm down...,

12:20 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I'm just waiting for system mechanic to load then it'll defrag it

12:20 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I might hard rest-

12:22 <Iks> hmmm good... sometimes i get weird noises too, freaking me out before i realise it comes from outside

12:22 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I put my head against it while I was looking through and the noise stopped

12:24 <Iks> well have fun fiddling with it... gonna go do something else, have said more today here than in the past 5 years together

12:25 <desert> you hould check the smart data,  it will tell you if the HDD is ok or if its about to die (most of the time, HDDs don't usually work one day and die without warning the next)

12:27 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yeah the hard drive fragments rather quickly

12:27 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> So... Yknow it slows things down alot

12:28 <desert> a fragmented HDD never gets you read times measured in seconds though,  not unless its a huge file split into 1,000s of peaces

12:29 <desert> if its taking a HDD that long to read data,  then its probably the HDD and not so much the fragmenting

12:29 <desert> how old is the computer?

12:33 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> It's done now

12:34 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Oh.. .We got it ... 2009? 2011?

12:34 <desert> oh,  well that explains it

12:34 <desert> the HDD is probably getting old then and nearing the end of its life

12:34 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> No they were replaced recently

12:35 <desert> huh

12:35 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> D drive baso has no problems, but c has it sometimes, so we defragment it and it goes back to the way it was

12:36 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Well not recently... Cha boy replaced one 500gb with 2 1tb's

12:37 <Divide> Okay, someone needs to die now...

12:37 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I have a belt and I'm not afraid to hang myself

12:38 <Divide> There is also someone who ... might be from nVidia who needs to perish, too.

12:41 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Why?

12:41 <Divide> Because they decided to release drivers which BRICKED MY COMPUTER.

12:41 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Bricked?

12:42 <desert> ouch

12:42 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> You need to defrag your drive as well?

12:42 <desert> did it brick the whole thing or just the graphics card?

12:42 <Divide> ... I will murder you where you stand, Small_Skippez.

12:42 <desert> defragging won't help if the computer won't boot

12:43 <Divide> It ALMOST boots.  Reseating the various devices did the trick as far as that was concerned.

12:48 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> ... uuh, may I ask or... Should I know?

12:50 <Divide> Somehow, they have created the only operating system ever to become worse upon leaving beta.

12:50 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Halo fanboys? Halo 5 isn't available on the pc

12:51 <Divide> I refer to Cortana.

12:51 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I don't think MCC is either

12:51 <desert> theres several reasons why i went with win 7 for my gaming rig,   the fact the win 7 would be the easiest to activate was one of the minor reasons,  major reasons included mucking about with the BIOS and trying to control what i can and can't do with my CPU

13:28 <Finwe> So, what is it?

13:28 <Divide> nVidia released a set of drivers which refuse to drive.

13:29 <Finwe> One can only repeat Linus Torvalds's words: "Fuck you, Nvidia."

13:30 <Finwe> That was because they refused to publish the source code of their graphics driver, though.

13:46 <Ponka_Pie> But then again, if the short promotionals for EQG can get away with it, so can I.

13:47 <Finwe> And Win7 and Win10 beat Win8 in usability.

13:48 <Ponka_Pie> rela: it may not be on the same level, but https://derpibooru.org/861885

13:48 <Finwe> But the most horrendous Windows version is still Vista.

13:48 * Finwe shivers.

13:49 <Ponka_Pie> Ok it wasn't that bad, it was meh.

13:50 <Divide> There was the ever-present Microsoft Bob.

13:50 <Divide> "Bob was there, too."

13:50 <Finwe> I think that even Microsoft agrees on Vista being one of their worst products.

13:52 <Divide> Those familiar with the inner workings of Windows.  Will renaming a driver force Windows to use the older version in lieu, or will it just cause a crash?

13:52 <rela> i liked even vista since i did not like the old way of working with computas like with xp

13:52 <rela> and after the drivers have been made available and sp1 was released vista was a good os for privat daily use

15:11 <CleverDerpy> when a girl changes that drastically, it can also be because she's jealous or has another stallion in mind, or maybe the homosexuality thing really is true.

15:12 <CleverDerpy> but in this case, it seems she wants you off her back, so she'll say what she has to do that

15:12 <CleverDerpy> think long and hard if you did anything, no matter how subtle, to trigger this behavior

15:13 <CleverDerpy> cuz until we know why it happened it's unwise to guess a solution

15:15 <CleverDerpy> or maybe the behavior is static and she always felt this way, but didn't reveal it till you said or did something to trigger it.

16:07 <Thelema5> What is your relationship with her?  Classmates?  Do you spend time together, have friends in common, etc... or was her comment pretty much out of the blue?

16:07 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> But it wasn't mea- ugh

16:09 <Thelema5> The only reason I know of why she would mention her sexual orientation is if she thought you were interested in that sort of relationship.

16:09 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> It's not meant to be like that

16:55 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Halo im back

16:55 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> How would an old mustang beat a ferrari?

16:55 <SunsetShimmer> by going faster. :P

16:55 <KooK> Because the Ferrari would break down

16:55 <KooK> It's what they do best

16:55 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> ... mustangs breaks dont work

16:56 <KooK> First off, you mean brakes

16:57 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yes i do

16:57 <Lumindia_> break the brakes

16:57 <Lumindia_> 'w'

16:57 <KooK> Second, are you talking about Mustangs 14 inch Brembos?

16:58 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> No, i mean 65' mustang vs 16' 488 GTB, as far as i know, 65 boss's don't have bremb's

16:59 <KooK> Duh, both cars are status symbols

16:59 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yes but i'd rather have the ferrari

17:01 <KooK> I'd still take the Mustang unless somebody else was paying for insurance, parts, repairs, taxes, etc.

17:01 <KooK> If nothing was coming out of my pocket then yeah, probably Ferrari

17:02 <KooK> Because that hog will be in the shop a lot

17:02 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Well, honestly i'd just have the ferrari not because i don't like mustangs. I just want to feel safer doing higher speeds

17:03 <KooK> Duh, pre-1970s almost anything is going to be a death trap

17:03 <KooK> Compared to todays cars that is

17:04 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Plus you really think ferraris reputation would be anything but tarnished if they were most known for breaking down?

17:04 <KooK> Yes, because it's Ferrari.  I know what these cars are like to drive and work on, sad to say

17:05 <KooK> Ignorance is bliss

17:05 <Ponka_Pie> I return.

17:06 <KooK> Ferrari is a company that makes cars to look good, sound good, corner relatively well for a street car, then hand build everything, charge an insane amount which makes them a status sysmbol...

17:06 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Which is  why i love bmw

17:07 <KooK> And hand-build Italian cars is not a something that typically means reliable

17:07 <KooK> BMW does make good stuff, I hate their electronics though.  Plus it's very typically over-engineered

17:07 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> What?

17:08 <KooK> Their electronics are so finicky it makes me vomit.  The mechanics of them are so over-engineered it can make them difficult to work on sometimes

17:08 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Why do you wanna wok on cars all the time?

17:08 <KooK> Most BMWs these days you can't even jump start without ruining the electronics, they even state that in their owners manuals

17:09 <KooK> Because cars need maintenance

17:09 <KooK> Some more than others

17:09 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Jump start?

17:11 <KooK> Or if you don't close the door all the way and the interior lights stay on

17:11 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> That's why you don't do dat

17:11 <KooK> Or if that battery DOES need replaced and you have to drive it somewhere to do it but until then the car does not start

17:11 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> My mums car is older than me... shes only had to replce like a car door motor, a battery & some door seals

17:12 <KooK> Yeah, take that car to the dealership and ask them to give her a list of maintenance items that should have been replaced by now, that and a list of things already replaced.

17:13 <KooK> It'll be more than what you expect

17:13 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yes but the car is still running

17:13 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Oh and a radio

17:14 <KooK> There's no way 15 year old suspension is working properly, 15 year old brakes are working like they should, brake fluid, transmission filter, cam belt, etc. etc. etc.

17:14 <KooK> Although it might have a cam chain, what car is it?

17:14 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> A vauxhall agla 1.2

17:14 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Agila

17:15 <KooK> I have no idea what those even look like.  Again, we don't have vauxhall over here.

17:15 <KooK> Couldn't tell you anything about it

17:16 <KooK> But more has been replaced than you think, and more needs replaced than you would expect.  You remember the window regulator because that was an issue that stuck out like a sore thumb

17:16 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Well no it didn't

17:16 <KooK> Everything under the car and under the hood are things you don't pay attention to

17:16 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yes well the car still bloody works, my mum didn't even need to replacwe the batteryy

17:17 <KooK> If it was a good battery then it was a waste of money and resources?

17:18 <Ponka_Pie> What is a topic?

17:18 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> A nice chocolate bar

17:18 * Ponka_Pie eats the topic.

17:18 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yeys]

17:19 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Who is ponka btw

17:19 <Ponka_Pie> I.

17:19 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> No like

17:19 <KooK> The Americans make clunky stuff but are getting better.  The Europeans over-engineer.  I love the Swedish and their cars.  Japanese is where you typically go for reliable.

17:20 <KooK> Don't bring up the Italians because they're good at making good looking stuff, that's about it.

17:20 <Ponka_Pie> o. o

17:20 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Nissan and toyota back in the day under gentlemans agreement lied about theyre horsepower

17:20 <Ponka_Pie> No like what?

17:21 <KooK> I love Italian cars, would kill for a Lancia Delta HF or a Stratos

17:21 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> There's a toy about ponka or soemthing

17:21 <Ponka_Pie> Is there?

17:21 <KooK> So did the Americans, so do the Germans, the Italians kind of guess at their power and give you different numbers on different days

17:21 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Well, here is not the place to tell you where i saw that

17:21 * Sour_Sweet applies boops to Ponka_Pie

17:21 <Ponka_Pie> Good.

17:21 * Ponka_Pie boops back.

17:22 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> KooK how do you know Ferrari make bats- quality cars?

17:22 <Ponka_Pie> In the matter of that 'toy' I'd rather stay oblivious, that much should be obvious.

17:22 * Ponka_Pie hugs SunsetShimmer.

17:22 <KooK> Because I've had to work on them in the past.

17:22 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> No Ponkia noit like that

17:22 <SunsetShimmer> x3

17:22 <KooK> Not only that but I've had friends who tried to daily drive them

17:23 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> KooK, don't they hhave insurance... warranty?

17:23 <Ponka_Pie> I still wonder how we got from "Pinkie" to Ponk to Ponka to Ponika.

17:23 <KooK> Warranty doesn't last long and insurance doesn't cover a broken down car, only a wrecked one.

17:23 <Sour_Sweet> If you want to know the quality of a car take a look into the service manual and read at which interval you're supposed to visit a shop

17:24 <Sour_Sweet> With a Ferrari you can go to a workshop after you shop for groceries :P

17:24 <Sour_Sweet> Like each time ...

17:24 <Ponka_Pie> If the service manuel says "don't drive the car" it's obviously telling you that the only way to accelerate the car is to push it off a cliff.

17:24 <Ponka_Pie> Actually no, Sweetie.

17:24 <Ponka_Pie> It

17:25 <Ponka_Pie> You forgot a variable.

17:25 <Sour_Sweet> (Of course I'm over overexaggerating)

17:25 <Ponka_Pie> Other than that.

17:26 <Ponka_Pie> Let's compare it to an athlete. When he does compeate in Olympia, he has a high maintnance or his/her body.

17:26 <Sour_Sweet> Also: Mustangs aren't exactly build to quality either

17:26 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Ponka_Pie: nnvm , igoogled it, it just brings me back to vthe first mention of it

17:26 <Ponka_Pie> When he's not compeating or training and he's just jogging to the super market, he won't have the same intake.

17:27 <Sour_Sweet> Ponka_Pie: That athlete can still walk through a park without breaking down though

17:27 <Ponka_Pie> All I'm saying is that it also depends on the thing you do with the car.

17:27 <Sour_Sweet> With a Ferrari you have to bring it to a shop each x miles or it will fail no matter what power you're actually using

17:27 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Sour_Sweet: also, ferrari make sure with their cars you need to own others first before you can buy that one

17:28 <Ponka_Pie> Italy always was weird when it came to cars.

17:28 <Ponka_Pie> Why not go German?

17:28 <KooK> Anyway, Ferrari comes with a 3 year warranty, you can extend it out to 5 if you pay extra (which, you probably will)

17:29 <Sour_Sweet> Yeah buy a diesel. It's clean I promise

17:29 <Ponka_Pie> Germany makes card build like Tanks.

17:29 <Ponka_Pie> cars*

17:29 <Sour_Sweet> Take my German word for it. There is nothing that could go wrong

17:29 <Ponka_Pie> No surprise, since the same people who build your cars ALSO build tanks

17:29 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> They're saying ban diesels in london

17:29 <Sour_Sweet> Not happening

17:30 <Ponka_Pie> But funny enough, German tanks are ALSO build like cars.

17:30 <KooK> ^

17:30 <KooK> Not happening

17:30 <Sour_Sweet> The car-lobby is way too strong

17:30 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Coz of environme nt stuff

17:30 <KooK> Diesels are getting so clean these days it's incredible

17:30 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Also electric cars are indirectly worse for environment than oil

17:30 <Sour_Sweet> Automakers didn't even compensate customers in Europe

17:31 <Ponka_Pie> Skippy: Adam ruined electic cars for me.

17:31 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Who dat?

17:31 <Sour_Sweet> Consumer protection is surprisingly strong in the U.S. in many ways. We don't even have class action lawsuits

17:31 <Ponka_Pie> Adam? He got his own series where he disspells universally believed falsehoods.

17:31 <Sour_Sweet> Ponka_Pie: That video leaves out a few things though

17:32 <Ponka_Pie> Obviously.

17:32 <Sour_Sweet> For example: The old cars don't ggo to a landfill, but usually replace older way less efficient models

17:32 <Ponka_Pie> No such thing as a video series disspelling falsehood without mistakes, left out stuff and a idology to boot.

17:32 <Sour_Sweet> (Also I hate my notebook keyboard)

17:33 <Ponka_Pie> Oh and an agenda to follow, can't forget that.

17:33 <Ponka_Pie> Besides that most of what he says is mostly right.

17:34 <Sour_Sweet> Plus nuclear enegry (in theory) doesn't emmit CO_2

17:34 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I just want my bmw m4

17:34 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Yes but how bloody dangerous is a nuclear powered automobile?

17:34 <Sour_Sweet> Plus plus: Enegery plants if setup correctly are better at filtering pollution

17:38 <Sour_Sweet> Keeping pollution away from cities alone helps health a lot

17:38 <Sour_Sweet> Not to mention noise

17:40 <KooK> It's a pair of Australians who do crazy stuff

17:40 <Sour_Sweet> Was it the BMW i8 that had that nice artificial engine sound?

17:41 <Sour_Sweet> You can't trust milage numbers

17:41 <KooK> Which is rough considering it has a 7 gallon fuel tank

17:41 <Sour_Sweet> The way they measure those is hilarious

17:42 <KooK> Well, when the numbers are 1/4th what is claimed that is kind of a deal...

17:43 <Sour_Sweet> Also pro -tip: Technology wise traditional (German-) car makers are lightyears behind

17:43 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I have a really great idea for those artificial sounds

17:43 <Sour_Sweet> To a point where they buy components from Tesla

17:44 <Sour_Sweet> They missed the chnace to get on the electric train many years ago and play catch-up

17:44 <Sour_Sweet> The cars look impressive but on the inside they're not

17:44 <Nuclear> I am building a car that is purely mechanical, and runs of fossil fuels, but emits nothing.

17:44 <KooK> Well probably because the electric train isn't exactly far ahead in itself.  We still need a better means of battery storage.

17:44 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> Whet?

17:45 <Nuclear> You can capture and recycle all emissions 100% using an electrolysis machine.

17:45 <Sour_Sweet> And a lot more charging stations

17:45 <Nuclear> This is FAR superior to any BEV.

17:45 <Nuclear> Or even FCEV.

17:45 <Nuclear> Or hybrid.

17:45 <Sour_Sweet> Currently you can't just make an unplanned long roadtrip with an electric vehicle

17:45 <Nuclear> Well, when emissions recycling becomes commonplace, battery powered vehicles won't stand a chance.

17:46 <KooK> Here's what I know, I love E85

17:46 <Nuclear> Over 10 kWh for a kg of diesel. Diesel engines can be over 60% efficient.

17:47 <Nuclear> Recycle the same tank of diesel over and over.

17:47 <KooK> I'd like to see the data behind all of that

17:47 <Nuclear> Just by applying electricity.

17:47 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> By thh way, artificial engine noises, if that becomes more of a thing, i have a massive idea that i wanna copyright

17:47 <Nuclear> Efficiency is at least 50% to 60%.

17:47 <Nuclear> Recharging is quicker than battery.

17:47 <Nuclear> Never have to worry about replacing it.

17:47 <KooK> Need data

17:47 <Nuclear> You simply recycle fuel.

22:09 <Divide> Okay, so pnputil might be an option...

22:10 <Cepheid> I gather reseating didn't help?

22:10 <Cepheid> My cat is dense as a brick.

22:10 <Cepheid> As I've said in the past, he likes to eat food so rapidly so that Tizzy gets none of us.

22:11 <Cepheid> Er, it*

22:11 <Divide> Faulty drivers as best as I can tell.

22:11 <Divide> For added comedic value, not even safe mode works, so I need to push something like DevCon.exe to the system.

22:11 <Cepheid> So, over the Christmas days, we bought the cats some new toys.  You fill 'em up with treats, and run a long treat-string through a headpiece to create ears.

22:11 <Divide> Cepheid: That sounds cute.  I've seen them before, certainly.

22:12 <Cepheid> Every time I've put the treat-string in, Spitfire would rapidly chew and consume it.  To the point where 3 minutes later he'd vomit it back up.

22:12 * Divide facepalms.

22:12 <Cepheid> We can't leave the treat-strings in because every time we put them in, this happens.

22:12 <Cepheid> Like you should see it.  I saw what happened and figured out why he's vomiting now.

22:12 <Cepheid> He literally goes "*NOM* *NOM* *NOM*" and eats half of it in three bites, just sticking the damned thing down his throat.

22:12 <Cepheid> I'm surprised he doesn't choke on it.

22:13 <Divide> Oh, heavens.

22:13 <Cepheid> As for the treats inside the toy itself, he can't figure out how to get them out.

22:14 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares

22:14 <Cepheid> While Tizzy's figured it out spot-on, to the point where it's not even a toy to her anymore.  She just grabs it, tilts it to the side, treats come out, eats them, repeat.

22:14 <Divide> While Spitfire just goes for the low-hanging fruit.  You can tell they're siblings.

22:16 <Divide> So yeah, I'm this close to just throwing up my hands and getting a new video card.  I mean, honestly, this is absurd.

22:17 <Cepheid> And I'm guessing you haven't done a complete OS reinstall?

22:19 <Divide> I attempted a Refresh.  It got 95% of the way through and cancelled itself, even from the media.  I MIGHT need to get a new hard drive instead and go that route.

22:20 <Divide> Which would MASSIVELY suck, but it would be an option.

22:21 <Cepheid> New hard drive would be cheaper than a new video card, and you wouldn't have to format either.  Just hook up the old drive inside, grab what you can/need off of it, and then get rid of it.

22:22 <Cepheid> In other news, I learned I start school next Thursday, not the Thursday after.  Whoops.

22:22 *** Joins: The_Nostalgia-Mare (Nossy@Pony-r4q41u.04tq.4psi.1006.2600.IP)

22:26 <Cepheid> A 2TB SSD would be over a thousand dollars.

22:26 <Divide> Oh, I see.  Then yes, just an HDD.

22:28 *** Joins: DARK (DARK@Pony-1pp.cqi.67.82.IP)

22:28 <DARK> hello^^

22:28 <Cepheid> Yes, but their hard drives don't explode.

22:29 <Cepheid> It's only the washing machines and dryers, which I still insist was an inside job.  Especially given the "fixes" for the phones had the same problem, implying they either did nothing, which would worsen their image, or someone sabotaged the components they used.

22:29 <Divide> <Pinkie Pie> Give it time...

22:29 <Divide> But yeah, cheap or sabotaged components are my bet on the Note 7.

22:30 <Cepheid> The washing machines are really unusual.

22:30 <Cepheid> Which furthers my belief of sabotage.

22:30 <Divide> Amusingly, a plane was grounded (thankfully before takeoff) when someone changed their tethering wifi name to 'Galaxy Note 7'.

22:30 <Cepheid> Either that, or one of the supply chain management people really, really screwed up and went for the lowest bidder.

22:31 <Divide> Eh... stupidity is more common than malice.

22:32 <Cepheid> I only hope the guy was asked to pay for his crimes.

22:33 <Cepheid> In any case..

22:33 <Cepheid> Their newer hard drives are reliable.  Older model ones, not so much.

22:34 <Gladiolus> samsung ssds are fine

22:34 <Cepheid> But that was partly due to A)  A defect in a core chip that affected more than just Samsung, and B)  Bad programming behaviours early on.

22:34 <Gladiolus> the reason the phone exploded is they found out the iphone 7 was making no major changes, so they tried to get their new phone out as quick as possible and cut QA and testing corners

22:34 <Gladiolus> it did not end well for them  HEHE

22:34 *** Quits: WuBzY (wubzy@wubz.that.is.all) (Connection closed)

22:34 <Divide> Heh, remember when, with Maxtor and WD, bad sectors were just 'a thing that happened'?

22:34 <Cepheid> Sandforce controllers were terrible.

22:35 <Cepheid> Apparently they both killed the hardware, and under certain circumstances reduced performance considerably.

22:35 <Gladiolus> Every major OS from the 90s has built in bad sector detection and will still use the rest of the drive o3o

22:36 <Divide> Oh, I know.  Interestingly, I ran chkdsk /r and memtest86 and found no errors in either, and so my money really is on bad drivers for the video card, THANKS NVIDIA, so... before I go out and spend $100 on that, I'm going to see if I can't pull the latest drivers from their site and force Windows to read the .inf from the recovery command prompt.

22:37 <Cepheid> Admittedly nVidia does have some problems with their drivers.

22:37 <Divide> 'Some problems', he says.

22:37 <Cepheid> I've had quite a few driver crashes as of late because of the hardware issues I have.

22:37 <Cepheid> For the most part though, outside of the hardware issue, nVidia drivers have been reliable for me.

23:37 <Cepheid> Interestingly, despite my high sneak, the Forsworn seem able to pick me out with ease.

23:38 <ADragonDreaming> Forsworn are nasty like that.

23:38 <Cepheid> And by nasty you mean "Their arrows are like bee stings."

23:40 <SkippeZ_ShadoW> I just saw rogue one,,,, omg

23:41 <Cepheid> Seriously though.  A trio of Forsworn I couldn't see(I could see them using Aura Whisper), that were around the corner, who couldn't possibly see me, immediately knew I was there and ran after me.
