01:43 <Cepheid> It continues from the previous one, sure.

01:44 <Cepheid> But it's easier than the last one.

01:44 <Schism> Dunno, does it explore any different concepts at all?

01:45 <Gladiolus> happens sometimes

01:45 <Gladiolus> sometimes the core concept is harder than the application

01:45 <Gladiolus> but you still have to practice the application to ensure you got the concept

01:45 <Cepheid> Not really.

01:45 <Cepheid> It explores concepts from 2 assignments ago.

02:10 <Schism> Cepheid: Well, it is a thing of wonder and beauty...

02:10 <Cepheid> Tizzy's all drugged up still, it seems.

02:10 <Schism> Whyfor the drugging?

02:11 <Cepheid> Usual reason.  Claws needed clipping.

02:11 <Cepheid> We can't clip her claws ourselves, so we bring her to the vet.

02:11 <Cepheid> But the vet won't do it unless she's sedated.

02:12 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Mass Effect Andromeda - AAA Gaming Experience

02:12 <Cepheid> ... BEFORE the appointment.

02:12 <Sour_Sweet> xD

02:12 <Cepheid> I'm indifferent about Andromeda's animation concerns.

02:12 <Cepheid> What I am concerned about is the problem people are creating over it.

02:13 <Cepheid> Apparently the employee who did most of the animations is getting spammed with insults, slander, etc.

02:29 <Schism> Or diphenhydramine, I guess.

02:29 <Cepheid> No, it's not.

02:29 <Cepheid> Not sure what it is, but she's drugged up good enough it's still affecting her now.  She had taken it at 8 AM this morning.

02:30 <Schism> Huh.  o.o  Well, at least when she's drugged up like that, she's not going to get into trouble.

02:31 <Cepheid> Still sensible enough to boss around Spitfire though.

02:37 * Schism plants a small plant in VinylScratch's octopus garden. It screams along to any metal songs played in its vicinity.

02:39 <SaultSteMarie> I want a door. Under the floor. In an octopus' garden in the shade.

02:44 <Schism> Erm.  Hmm.  Note to US folks here: the new FCC chairman has halted the implementation of the FCC's consumer protection privacy rules indefinitely.  Just a heads-up, because you can bet that anti-Net Neutrality and PIPA/SOPA are going to come next.

02:45 <SaultSteMarie> :T

02:51 <Schism> Eh, call them anyway.  Swamp the phones.  Send a postcard or two.

02:51 <SaultSteMarie> I really wish it were easier to emmigrate.

02:52 <Cepheid> Honestly all this happening doesn't surprise me one bit.

02:52 <Schism> RSF: Imagine putting someone from Optus or Telstra in charge of handling regulations on those companies.

02:52 <ADragonDreaming> moo.

02:53 <RazorSharpFang> Schism: That's not actually that bad, because those companies aren't that bad.

02:53 <SaultSteMarie> I really don't feel like a stakeholder in this country anymore. Or like I even belong here.

02:55 * ADragonDreaming pokes Schism for the news article or what have you

02:56 <Schism> Anyhoo, just brought that up because internet regulations, at least, affect all of us, especially with the backbone of numerous communications being in the US.  And sure.  https://www.engadget.com/2017/03/17/fcc-your-cybersecurity-isnt-our-problem/

02:58 <ADragonDreaming> ...

02:58 <ADragonDreaming> Well, while I can't say I like the move.

02:58 <ADragonDreaming> I also can't say I'm a fan of the article.

02:59 <Schism> Very well.  Would you prefer this one from Snopes?  http://www.snopes.com/2017/03/15/senate-bill-internet-privacy/

02:59 <Gladiolus> Oh yes companies are that bad.

03:00 <Gladiolus> Cable companies are extremely awful and have been in a race to the "LEast service, most profit" bottom for a long time.

03:00 <Gladiolus> If you give them a chance to specifically charge for youtube? You bet your ass they will.

03:00 <ADragonDreaming> Probably, Schism.

03:01 <ADragonDreaming> It's difficulty to take a news article seriously when its... /that/ vitriolic.

03:01 <SaultSteMarie> i would seriously stop watching youtube at that point

03:04 <VinylScratch> I don't consider them bad.

03:04 <ADragonDreaming> Yeah, the snopes article is rather more informative.

03:06 <ADragonDreaming> Of course the ad groups make zero money off of me as it is.

03:08 <Cepheid> Admittedly I'm inclined to believe that the reaction to the net-neutrality stuff in the US may be a bit overblown.  I don't agree with the stance, but at the same time I deal with it, and it's not as negative or as bad as the articles make it out to be.

03:08 <ADragonDreaming> This one is also useful: https://morningconsult.com/opinions/new-fcc-chairman-weakening-nations-cybersecurity%e2%80%a8/

03:08 <Cepheid> Canada's net-neutrality doesn't exist.

03:08 <ADragonDreaming> ...which stance?

03:09 <Cepheid> The idea of removing net-neutrality, etc.

03:09 <ADragonDreaming> Well.

03:09 <ADragonDreaming> I don't want Comcast deciding to slow down my internet because of the type of internet I'm watching.

03:09 <ADragonDreaming> Or using.

03:10 <Gladiolus> too bad the us is run by an extremist party that believes any amount of regulation or taxation is bad

03:10 <Cepheid> In the US, it's probably going to be worse than here, yes.

03:10 * ADragonDreaming takes away Gladiolus' bucket.

03:10 <Cepheid> But at the moment, I haven't noticed much in the way of throttling here in Canada.  If anything, the most troubling thing I see is "This content is not available in your country."

03:11 <Schism> Which is less Rogers' fault, and more the providers like Youtube.

03:11 * Gladiolus has no bucket.

03:11 * Gladiolus is confused as to why.

03:11 * Gladiolus had no idea he had one

03:11 * Schism provides Gladiolus with a bucket. But there's a hole in the bucket, dear hugbat, dear hugbat, there's a hole in the bucket, dear hugbat, a hole.

03:11 <Cepheid> Actually it's more the people who invented the DMCA and stuff like that.

03:11 <Gladiolus> wat

03:12 <Cepheid> Google and YouTube are required to comply with takedown requests.

03:12 <Cepheid> Or blocking based on regions.

03:12 <SaultSteMarie> Spoilers: If you throttle Rogers, you get a wraparound glitch and it actually goes infinitely fast.

03:12 * Schism nods...

03:12 <ADragonDreaming> "Well then fix it, dear hugbat, dear hugbat, dear hugbat,"

03:12 <SaultSteMarie> what the hecks a hugbat

03:12 <Schism> SaultSteMarie, hah, actually Rogers is pretty decent in terms of speeds for the most part...

03:12 * Gladiolus is the hugbat!

03:12 <Schism> SaultSteMarie, Gladiolus is a hugbat.

03:12 <Cepheid> Mm.  The cost is the biggest issue.

03:13 * Schism provides Gladiolus with a mango banana smoothie! It's screeworthy.

03:13 <Cepheid> If the commentary I hear about the reliability of Internet services in the US is true, then Rogers has the US beat there.

03:14 <ADragonDreaming> It depends on where you are.

03:17 <SaultSteMarie> wanna game but feeling umotivated to do so

03:17 <SaultSteMarie> also wanna code, also feeling unmotivated to do so

03:18 <Cepheid> I know the feeling.

03:18 <Cepheid> I'm actually doing design work.

03:22 <SaultSteMarie> I need to put some search history in my kanji lookup thing and it's like REALLY simple stuff just uuuuuuuuuuuuuuh. I haven't seen the sun in days

03:22 <ADragonDreaming> So go get some sun?

03:22 <ADragonDreaming> Vitamin D is important.

03:23 * Cepheid takes vitamin d supplements for that.

03:23 * Cepheid is a vampire. Would burn in the sun.

03:24 <Schism> What is this 'sun' thing of which you speak?  Do you mean the evil Daystar, ruled over by Corona Blaze?

03:24 * ADragonDreaming applies sunscreen.

03:24 <Cepheid> In all seriousness though, I find the sun tires me out rather than gives me energy.

03:25 <ADragonDreaming> Have you tested for a sun allergy?

03:25 <Cepheid> Yes.  I don't have an allergy.

03:25 <ADragonDreaming> Welll it's important to moderate.

03:26 * Schism steps outside, goes 'scree!', explodes, and turns into Blind the Thief.

03:28 * Schism snickers at a Chuck Wendig rant about 'tiny houses'.

03:29 <Cepheid> My cat is like a dog when it comes to laying down on a bed.

03:29 <Cepheid> Circles for several minutes.  Lays down.  Gets back up, circles for a few minutes.  Lays back down.  Repeat.

03:30 <Schism> Ah, I see.  "No, this space isn't /quite/ right... what about here... oh, I know!  Right where he's trying to sleep, that's a perfect spot."

03:32 <Cepheid> I need to buy him a new bed.  He won't use his old one anymore because it's all ruined.  And attempts to give him temporary replacement aren't working.

03:36 <Schism> What happened to ruin that old bed?

03:37 <Schism> Well, that's a silly question.  Spitfire happened...

03:37 <Cepheid> I put it through the washer.

03:37 <Cepheid> Turns out the foam wasn't too keen on being washed and dried.

03:37 <Schism> Oh?  o.o;  I thought most beds like that... ohhh.  Well, blast.

03:37 <Cepheid> So it became all lumpy, and the bed itself is all deformed and ruined.

03:37 * Schism pouts. "Poor kitty, having to share his new bed with a human."

03:38 <Schism> Uergh.  Walked down the hall just a few minutes ago, and I can see why my landlord is now growing absolutely and utterly fed up with my aunt.

03:39 <Schism> Or, rather, I can /smell/ why.  The entire stairwell, the /entire/ second floor, is so pervaded with the heady aroma of cannibis that it's virtually inescapable.  Thankfully I live on the third, but gods alive.

03:39 <Cepheid> Well, the biggest issue of Spitfire not liking the bed as it is now is because he freaking spazzes out after 5 minutes of kneading it.

03:40 <Cepheid> I've seen videos of mother cats doing something similar to what he does to me, when they want to keep their kittens under control so they can clean them, etc.

03:41 <Cepheid> I get the impression that it's a learned behaviour from the mother.  Probably thinks what he is doing is pinning my arm down with the intent to punish it.

03:41 <Schism> Arm nom nom.  But huh.

03:41 <Cepheid> Problem is, it's hard to tell.  Since the behaviour also looks identical to mating behaviour.

03:42 <Cepheid> And the vet thinks that's what it is, based on how I described it.

03:42 <Cepheid> He may not have been neutered early enough to avoid him developing that behaviour.

03:44 <Schism> ... you have weird cats.

03:44 <Cepheid> What else is new?

03:44 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

03:45 * Schism foists a cup of coffee upon Thelema5, and waves. "Evening."

03:45 <Thelema5> Thanksie!

03:47 <Cepheid> That assignment was more time consuming than difficult.  Also didn't help that partway through my internal voice screamed "ENOUGH!", threw a fit, and decided to implement things in the correct manner instead of this stupid setup the professor keeps demanding, for once.

03:47 <DashedRainbows> Hello Thelema5

03:48 <DashedRainbows> I'm starting to see the appeal of cider. Apples + Alcohol

03:48 <SaultSteMarie> Cepheid: Hello I am your C++ professor. IDEs do not exist. Code everything in pico

03:50 <DashedRainbows> cat and sed ftw

03:50 <Cepheid> Unfortunately the prof demands the assignments be handed in as IntelliJ Idea project files.

03:50 * Ali flops on Thelema5 for more kitteh updates.

03:52 <SaultSteMarie> I need Vernors I think

03:52 <SaultSteMarie> or Reeds

03:54 * Schism codes MUF with @set. @set itemname=program1# and so on.

03:54 <Thelema5> Ali, he's doing pretty great!  He's now eating on his own (although sparingling), drinking on his own, his energy levels are up, and his blood glucose has been within acceptable ranges for 4 days now.  He is off of all of him meds and hsn't needed insulin.

03:54 <Thelema5> *hasn't

03:55 * Ali yays and hopes the kitteh keeps getting better.

03:55 <Schism> Ahh, goodgood!

03:55 <Cepheid> Thelema5:  Regarding the food, have you tried changing foods temporarily?  I still say he's hesitant to eat it because of Conditioned Taste Aversion.

03:55 <Cepheid> Basically, he's associated his current(or old food, if it's been changed) with feeling terrible and sick.

03:55 <Thelema5> So now we're thinking that his low blood glucose issues were cause by his failing pancreas, rather than the failing pancreas being caused by diabetes... which means thata it's likely that he will not require constant medical care for the rest of his life.

03:56 <Thelema5> Cepheid, we have.  He's coming around to certain things.

03:56 <Cepheid> Ah, okie then.

03:56 <SaultSteMarie> Failing pancreas O_o

03:56 <Cepheid> It's funny how conditioned taste aversion was "discovered".

03:57 <Thelema5> SaultSteMarie, it was an infection which was corrected with an aggressive course of antibiotics

03:57 <SaultSteMarie> Ah.

03:57 <Thelema5> Or so we hope

03:57 <Cepheid> Psychologist one day had some sort of fish with bernaise sauce on it.  Later that evening, he got horribly sick.  Ever since that point, he was unable to consume foods that had bernaise sauce on or in them.

03:58 *** Quits: BlackSentinel (BlackSentin@behind.you) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

03:58 <Thelema5> Seems reasonable.  I've known people with similar experiences, Cepheid.  I guess that Phd. makes a big difference XD

03:58 <Cepheid> He found it interesting because there was no way for his body to associate the sauce with illness, and that the conditioning happened relatively quickly.

03:59 <Thelema5> Pavlov on steriods

03:59 <Cepheid> Most conditioning usually takes several experiments to succeed.  In this case, in just 8 hours, his body developed a strong aversion to the bernaise sauce, and with only one incident.

04:00 *** Joins: BlackSentinel (BlackSentin@Pony-e3k3om.cable.teksavvy.com)

04:02 <Cepheid> That said, applying psychology to my cat is difficult.

04:02 <Cepheid> As it's hard to explain where he developed some of the conditioning he has.

04:03 <Cepheid> I assume the running-to-the-living-room thing started because early in his life, I had several toys I would use to play with him.(Most of them are broken now...) and we'd play in the living room.

04:03 <Cepheid> Why extinction hasn't taken effect is likely because of what I do nowadays.  When he runs to the room, I go over and pet him with both hands, getting his belly, back, sides and tail.

04:04 <Cepheid> Though there's one conditioning I just can't explain for the life of me.

04:04 <Cepheid> Sometimes instead of the living room, he'll run up to the cat tree and start clawing the reed-rope pole on it savagely.

04:07 * Cepheid sings along to the DJ Alex Kea remix of Ramalama Ding Dong.

04:12 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid: I don't think that's conditioned, I think that might be innate.

04:13 <RazorSharpFang> Both of my cats do the exact same thing.

04:13 <Cepheid> Except he explicitly does this under certain conditions.

04:14 <Cepheid> As in, he just goes from me approaching him straight to bolting to the scratching post.

04:15 <Cepheid> The only thing I can link it to is a routine that we used to go through when I came home from somewhere.  We had a scratching post downstairs near the front door.  Every time me or my dad walked in, Spitfire would go up to it and start scratching, and me and my dad would rub his belly while he scratches away.

04:24 <Thelema5> Oh boy... I can wiggle my toes.  Having been incapacitated by a major gout flare up for the past week and a half, this is very good news

04:24 <Schism> Ah, excellent!  Are you able to hobble about without too much pain?

04:25 <Thelema5> Not until today, following much bedrest. But at the moment, I'm feeling hopeful.

04:26 * Schism nodnods, "That is great news."

04:26 <Thelema5> Gout is seriously the most awful thing you could wish upon an enemy

04:26 <RazorSharpFang> What is gout?

04:26 <Schism> RSF: It's where uric acid turns into crystals inside a joint.

04:27 <Cepheid> This results in considerable inflammation of said joint and extreme pain.

04:27 <RazorSharpFang> That sounds pretty painful. What could cause that?

04:27 <Schism> So not only does it cause dehabilitating swelling, it's like someone poured broken glass into the joint itself.

04:27 <Thelema5> Those crystals are like needles which grow inside the joint and the near tissues

04:29 <RazorSharpFang> I don't understand why it would start.

04:29 <Schism> A buildup of the acid in the body, largely due to genetic factors, though diet is often found to have a hand in it.

04:30 <Thelema5> RazorSharpFang, it's mostly caused by genetic preconditioning but it can be triggered by many things, including poor diet and injury.   In my case it's injury.... I hurt my knee trying to adminster medicine to my sick cat a week and half ago...

04:30 <RazorSharpFang> Is there treatment of gout?

04:31 <Cepheid> There are treatments, yes.

04:31 <Thelema5> Long term preventives, yeah.. but they have risks and don't treat the actual flare ups

04:32 <Thelema5> The treatments can actually trigger new flare ups, so.... not ideal

04:34 <Thelema5> I'm just glad that I can limp around with a cane at the moment; 24 hours ago I couldn't even stand without terrible pain

04:34 <Thelema5> Gladly, flare-ups self resolve within a week or two

04:39 <Golden> Good night everyone

04:43 <Thelema5> FYI, I'll present my most recent experience as a typical flare-up: Wednesday: I noticed a slight ache in my right knee.  Thought litte of it.  Went to bed.  Thursday: Woke up with my knee swelled to twice it's size, unable to move it at all without excruciating pain and severe swelling.  Called out from work and spend the WHOLE day icing and elevating the knee...

04:43 <Thelema5> The following day, the same.

04:44 <Thelema5> And again, and again. All this time, trying to stand or use the affected joint results in terrible unbearable pain

04:45 <Cepheid> Sounds about right.

04:46 <Thelema5> Now it's a week later, and after constant bouts of icing sessions, and "holding the affected part above the heart" it's starting to settle doen

04:46 <Thelema5> *down

04:47 <Thelema5> Give it 4 more days of inactivity.   Then the limb will start to function again.

04:47 <Cepheid> If you want something to compare it to, compare it to a broken bone.

04:48 *** Quits: Golden (Golden@Pony-0bbtn5.co.comcast.net) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

04:48 <Thelema5> Yeah.  It's horrible.

04:48 <Cepheid> The pain was on par with my broken knuckle from a few years back.

04:48 <Cepheid> Essentially, it's swollen, you can't move it, and attempts to move it cause intense pain.

04:49 <Thelema5> Cepheid, I'm still laid up with my foot in traction atm... I can finally move my toes, which is huge.  I REALLY hope that the next two days are promising.

04:50 <Thelema5> I tried explaining to my SO how swelling stops all mechanical motion... but I'm not sure she got it

04:51 <Cepheid> Mmm.  Persona 5's being released on April 4th.  I forgot about that.

04:59 <SaultSteMarie> okay gonna try to play some Japanese saturn stuff for a bit

05:01 <Cepheid> I wonder what my persona would be.  As it is, I see myself as some sort of embodiment of uncontrollable rage.  Mostly due to my psychotic episodes, in which I am actively trying to suppress or constrain something that can't be suppressed or stopped.

05:01 <RazorSharpFang> What sort of persona would a pacifist have?

05:01 <Cepheid> Probably something that focuses on healing or defense.

05:02 <Cepheid> So anything that actively protects others, heals them, or improves their capabilities.

05:07 <Gladiolus> Nah, but it seems what happened is they made the system better.

05:07 <Gladiolus> So it's just exaggerated when it's bad and /really/ good when it is good.

05:08 <Gladiolus> Obv everyone is ignored the points where it is good, less comedy.

05:08 <Gladiolus> It doesn't effect gameplay but I did laugh a few times

05:08 <RazorSharpFang> What I've seen so far looks horrendous though.

05:08 <Gladiolus> What you've seen is specific bits cut out for comedy.

05:08 <RazorSharpFang> But that's probably less due to the system, and more what's been DONE with it.

05:08 <Gladiolus> It's not /always/ like that.

06:59 <Starwatcher> yeah, I don't so much like the heat

06:59 * Starwatcher likes flying rc airplanes as well

06:59 <SaultSteMarie> Went to the pizza place today and I was sitting next to some people who were basically shipping their coworkers. That's a weird thing to do, shipping your coworkers, right?

07:00 <DashedRainbows> I'm also not a fan of the allergies, but 110F heat gets old fast

07:00 <SaultSteMarie> also by the pizza place i mean a pizza place because there are multiple pizza places and no previous reference to one in this discource which would make the usage of a definitive article there appropriate

07:00 <DashedRainbows> I used to, Starwatcher, but can't well now

07:01 <SaultSteMarie> and on top of that it wasn't really a pizza place it's just a place that has pizza. they have other things.

14:01 <Sour_Sweet> Either case wouldn't be racist in any way

14:03 <Lumindia> yeah, I looked up the definition

14:03 <Lumindia> 'prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.'

14:03 <Lumindia> which there's absolutely none of

14:03 <Lumindia> it's just "Hey, you live in German, can you tell me what these dishes are?"

14:30 <Koopz> ikr?

14:31 <Jouva> Also docker != vm

14:31 <Jouva> It's much much different and infact is partially why people use docker over VMs

14:32 <Jouva> It's more like a jailed environment

14:32 <Koopz> i'm aware of the concept behind it...

14:32 <Koopz> i just brag about it because i can't reach that Transmission WebUI for some reason..

14:33 <Koopz> and i don't know whose fault it is... is it the Boot2Docker VM? is it the Container? Is it the FreeNAS?

14:34 <Koopz> VM network is bridged, can ping it with my computer and "netstat -tulpen" lists :::9091 :::* LISTEN

14:35 <Koopz> "netstat -tulpen" on the docker container doesn't list anything though

14:36 <Jouva> I do know that w/in docker you need to generally forward a port

14:36 <Koopz> port forwarding is on

14:36 <Jouva> But that being said, at least the application in the container should have its port listening

14:37 <Koopz> yeah exposing the ports might result in the VM listening on the ports but if the container doesn't provide anything i guess i can't expect anything to happen

14:37 <Jouva> Yeah

14:37 <Koopz> guess i could try manually starting the daemon

16:06 <Schism> No, that's Terraria.  Terranigma is an SNES game from the '90s.

16:07 <MysteryB> may be terarria is on the SNES too?

19:11 <Finwe> I've been without my laptop and home keys, but now I'll get in.

19:11 <Finwe> A lot of kneading going on.

19:12 * DashedRainbows stretches and sighs

19:15 * Schism kneads dough. Then bakes dough into pretzels.

19:16 <DashedRainbows> Mmm. Soft pretzels with cinnamon. How delicious

19:16 <Schism> Or with kosher salt and honey mustard.

19:17 <Schism> Of course, we all know why the failed baker had to rob a bank.

19:18 <Ali> Cause he kneeded the dough?

19:18 * Ali slapped silly.

19:19 <Schism> T'was a failed bakery, because he badly kneaded the dough.  :S

19:20 * DashedRainbows pat-pats Ali and Schism

19:20 <Finwe> Given that it has not been cooked in the milk of its own mother.

19:20 <Schism> I swear I've explained this a few times before.

19:21 <Schism> Kosher salt is a coarser variety, used by butchers to draw the blood more thoroughly from the meat.

19:21 <Finwe> I swear that I've forgot the explanation.

19:21 <Schism> It's non-iodized, and intrinsically it's about the same as any other salt, just not as fine-grained.

19:24 <Finwe> o3o

19:25 * Finwe nodnods at Schism.

19:26 <Schism> Kosher salt is used on, say, soft pretzels precisely because it's large-grain, and therefore you get that glistening crystal appearance.

19:26 *** SleepFrame is now known as FreezeFrame

19:27 <Finwe> Schism: I'd use sea salt for the same purpose.

19:27 <DashedRainbows> I've never actually had a salt pretzel with honey mustard, but it sounds good

19:28 * Schism rolls over to FreezeFrame, and offers an oven-warm soft whole wheat pretzel with a cheddar cheese and roasted tomato dipping sauce.

19:29 * FreezeFrame devours said pretzel

19:30 * Schism offers Finwe much the same, but with a sour cream and dill sauce instead.

19:30 * Finwe noms on said treat.

19:31 <FreezeFrame> My favorite is heading to the mall and getting a pretzel dog from Auntie Anne's, with the hot salsa cheese dip they offer.

19:32 <Schism> That does sound nomworthy.

19:35 <Finwe> Pretzels are supposed to be enjoyed with beer.

19:35 <FreezeFrame> Even better if they have jalapeño cheese pretzel dogs

19:35 <FreezeFrame> I should make my breakfast

19:35 <DashedRainbows> Hmm, interesting

19:36 <Schism> Finwe: How about ... beer-bread pretzels?  o3o

22:34 *** Quits: Iks (Deggl@Pony-pm2.q4n.211.95.IP) (Connection closed)

22:35 <Cepheid> Hum.  I need a world structure type that suits the basic story idea I have in mind.  Single-town world(For gameplay purposes.  The world has numerous towns, but only one is relevant), needs to be "deep" so it can't be like, some floating island setup.  I also don't want the player to be able to touch the world "edge" bounds.

22:36 <wobniaR> I've been werking and stuff Thelema5, awaiting the day it slows down so i can take a well earned vacation

22:36 <SaultSteMarie> What do you mean by deep?

22:37 <SaultSteMarie> also what's the basic story you have in mind?

22:38 <Cepheid> SaultSteMarie:  A deity strikes down a demonic god with a spear, sealing the being deep within the ground.  The relative size of the world and spear is that the spear itself is large enough to be a tower to the people living on the world.  Goal of the game is to descend the spear's interior tower-like structure, meet up with the sealed demonic god, and kill it.  I would imagine the spear goes quite deep into the world.

22:39 <Cepheid> Two approaches work for world structure.  Island out in the middle of the ocean, or a Minecraft-like procedural world that has no real bounds.

22:42 *** Quits: Saerydoth (akai@Pony-eko.t2f.56.172.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

22:44 <Cepheid> Essentially, I just want a setup that doesn't involve the player being able to walk up to the edge of the world without the camera moving.

22:45 <Cepheid> Of course, for simplicity I should probably stick with that anyways for initial versions.

22:47 *** Quits: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony) (Quit: Bye)

22:49 <SaultSteMarie> What about an isolated isolated Appalachian town that's bound by mountains and the only road out is blocked because it was destroyed by flyrock from some recent mountain-top removal mining operation (which is also responsible for weakening the seal on the demigod or something); and people from that aren't from the village just ignore this massive tower thing because it's so abberant re what they'd consider normal??????

22:50 <Cepheid> Hmm, mountain town.  That works, yes.

22:51 <SaultSteMarie> you could also just set the town entirely inside the portion of the spear that's above ground maybe?

22:52 <Cepheid> I was intending to have the town built around it, actually.  A town that draws in people to investigate and examine the tower.

22:52 <SaultSteMarie> oh wait so was the town built *because* the people came to the spear?

22:53 <Cepheid> Yeah.  They saw it as something as an out-of-place artifact.  By the time the game takes place, several centuries have passed since the war between the demonic god and the god that owned the spear.

22:53 <Cepheid> As far as they know, it's just an out-of-place pillar of stone.  Up until a series of earthquakes opens up an entrance into the structure.

22:54 <Cepheid> Which leads into the current day, the character is just an explorer that decides to explore the structure and surrounding areas.  The mining operation could help explain the earthquakes, yes.  Especially if we go with a "dug too deep" scenario.  It'd make a good side dungeon to start with.

22:55 <Cepheid> The overall goal is to just kill the demonic god at the bottom.  But there will be a series of dungeons in the surroundings that, if you go deep enough into them, you'll find some aggressive tendril protected by some monster.  The tendril is an attempt by the god, who is still alive, but barely, to regain power by expanding it's reach.

22:56 <Cepheid> Damage the tendril, it weakens the god.  Making it easier in the long run to kill it at the bottom of the tower.

22:57 <SaultSteMarie> They have tendrils.

22:58 <Cepheid> Heh.

22:59 <Cepheid> But yeah, a mining operation would be a good way to explain the initial earthquakes.  As they were digging, they inadvertantly poked at one of the many tendrils/roots of the demon god.  It'd be a "good starting point" for the player.

23:01 <SaultSteMarie> are these tendrils infesting the local flora?

23:02 <SaultSteMarie> or resembling them?

23:05 *** Quits: Rainb (Rainb@Pony-t1p3a2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

23:06 <Cepheid> Hmm...  The original idea was to have them deep underground.  But allowing them to sprout above ground would allow for them to be hidden in surface structures, corrupted environments, or, as stated, mimicking the surroundings to be remain hidden.  They're intended to be the reason for the monsters roaming the surroundings.

23:07 <Cepheid> Above ground, hidden in abandoned structures or performing mimicry would probably be best.  Corrupted environment would stand out too much.  Nothing more horrifying realizing that monsters are coming from somewhere, but no matter how hard you look, you can't find the source because it looks like the surroundings.

23:16 <Cepheid> Mmm, thanks for the help, SaultSteMarie.

23:25 <Cepheid> I've a few choices.  It's intended to be a roguelike 'cause I like roguelikes.  C/C++ with SDL would make it cross-platform(But have ncurses support for those old fogeys that still prefer that approach), as would Java(Though this would be more difficult due to the nature of memory allocation in Java).  I can do C# as well.  I'm leaning more towards C and C++ though.

23:28 <SaultSteMarie> i think i showed you the source for my weird C# roguelike thing once

23:28 <SaultSteMarie> Thta was... why did I make that

23:28 <Cepheid> Practice, experience, most likely.

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> I think it was partially because I was like 22 and sort of depressed

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> also by partially maybe mostly

23:29 <Cepheid> The main reason I want to go with C and C++ is primarily because it can be tailored to individual OSes to account for shortcomings.  For example, Windows lacks a proper terminal emulator setup.

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> less-than-lucid decision making :))))

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> Doing roguelike movement in SDL is pretty easy

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> You just use the stock keyrepeat functionality

23:29 <SaultSteMarie> which normally you DON'T want to use for movement in a game but for a roguelike it's perfect

23:30 <SaultSteMarie> since it does the first keypress, waits a bit, then just autorepeats the keypress?

23:30 <SaultSteMarie> Like with a text cursor

23:30 <Cepheid> Yeah.

23:30 <Cepheid> The biggest issue with the SDL approach is rendering text properly.  Fonts are a pain in the rear for that.

23:30 <SaultSteMarie> Also I'd definitely recommend offloading enemy/character/object behavior to a scripting language

23:30 <SaultSteMarie> You could do a bitmap font

23:30 <Cepheid> There is that, yes.

23:30 <SaultSteMarie> then it's just a spritesheet basically

23:31 <Cepheid> That would be the easiest approach, and work the best.

23:31 <Cepheid> Nowadays, font renderers are keen on things like anti-aliasing, baselines, descenders and ascenders, that it just gets to be too much trouble.

23:31 <Cepheid> Plus you have to worry about whether the font implements all the required characters, and does so correctly.  *COUGH* DejaVu *Cough*

23:31 <SaultSteMarie> btw if you wanna look at how I set up the scripting in my thing you're more than welcome to like just steal it completely.

23:32 <Cepheid> DejaVu series of fonts doesn't implement the box drawing characters properly.

23:32 <SaultSteMarie> Hell is when you're on English Windows 10 and trying to use something with shift-jis encoding but Windows 10 doesn't have applocale anymore and the other locale emulators just crash the thing you're trying to run

23:32 <Cepheid> Wow.

23:33 <SaultSteMarie> idk why they didn't support app locale on windows 10 or just like idk native shift-jis support.

23:33 <Cepheid> I'd be using unicode for glyph rendering.  This sort of introduces a few problems here and there.  The need for multiple font files in order to render CP437 at a minimum.

23:33 <SaultSteMarie> Especially if you're on home edition where the locale settings are, like most of the settings, less reobust.

23:34 <SaultSteMarie> "reobust" uh

23:34 <SaultSteMarie> Unicode's a good choice!

23:34 <Cepheid> As for why Unicode?  Well, mostly the fact if we need more characters, we can just add some more in at a later date.

23:34 <Cepheid> Of course, the ncurses approach breaks down here.

23:35 <SaultSteMarie> emulating a console with SDL that feels like ncurses isn't that hard iirc

23:35 <Cepheid> Yeah, that's what I'd be doing, yes.

23:35 <Cepheid> It's just people want native ncurses support for one stupid reason.

23:35 *** Joins: DARK (DARK@Pony-ctql37.044o.qq38.0e35.2a01.IP)

23:36 <SaultSteMarie> also I think I vaguely remember ncurses' documentation being not great

23:36 <DARK> hello les gens

23:36 <Cepheid> When people can't install the game locally, they like to run the game remotely on another machine far away, log in remotely with telnet or SSH and play on a terminal setting.

23:36 <Cepheid> There are also setups entirely based around this.

23:36 <Cepheid> Granted, it's not critical or necessary, as Dungeon Crawl has shown.

23:36 <SaultSteMarie> Huh!

23:36 <Cepheid> You can play Dungeon Crawl in a web browser using tiles.

23:37 <Cepheid> So it's not a requirement to use ncurses, these days.

23:38 <Cepheid> Send the required images to the client, then start sending the screen information.  The script on the client side takes it, and translates it into HTML code and renders it remotely.

23:39 <Cepheid> Anyone these days that still requires pure text-only terminal support is either just an extremely old person who's big on nostalgia and "I liked games before they had graphics" hipster-style, or is at work.

23:41 <SaultSteMarie> I'm trying to remember how I set up objects behaviors in my thing. Like...

23:42 <SaultSteMarie> The idea was that you could send an object an event and it would handle it if it could, otherwise it would run some default event handling code

23:42 <SaultSteMarie> I thiiink this is how Smalltalk handles object methods.

23:42 <Cepheid> Smalltalk and Objective-C, yeah.

23:43 <SaultSteMarie> And I think CLOS in Common LISP works the same way

23:43 <Cepheid> Objects receive messages and parameters associated with those messages.  If the message can't be handled, the default behaviour is to pass it up the chain of inheritance or ignore it.

23:43 <SaultSteMarie> Yeah.

23:44 <Cepheid> Not impossible to do in C or C++.

23:44 <Cepheid> It's tricky though.

23:44 <Fn> Nurds

23:45 <SaultSteMarie> I think I basically wrote my own object system, where every object was basically just a vector and these were kind of just... data objects that passed themselves into the Lua scripts that actually defined the behaviors?

23:46 <Cepheid> When dealing with LUA, that's one way to do it, yes.  Everything in LUA is essentially a table.  So you kind of have to set up the table for each and every object.  If you have objects in the native language that manipulate these tables instead of typical native member variables, it's...  yeah.

23:46 * Cepheid noms on Fn.

23:47 <SaultSteMarie> like the player object was the exact same class as everything else in the game and was handled the same way, the only difference was that its default AI behavior was to block the game until player input was received and then handle it.

23:48 *** Joins: Sombra (Iceman@Pony-6eg.3uv.42.96.IP)

23:48 <Cepheid> That might be a tad excessive.

23:49 <SaultSteMarie> It would be!

23:50 <SaultSteMarie> and I think for item on item interaction I had this two step process. Like lets say two objects collided and both handled collision events. Both would pass a closure indicating would that would do back to the event handler.

23:50 <SaultSteMarie> Assuming both objects passed back closures, the event handler would run them and the objects would respond accordingly.

23:50 <SaultSteMarie> Alternatively one or both objects could pass back nil from Lua. In this case, neither of the event closures would be run.

23:51 <Sombra> well I saw that stupid uh.

23:51 <Sombra> Beauty and the emma watson movie

23:51 <SaultSteMarie> (also I think there was something in place to handle an alternative actions on event failures like that).

23:52 <SaultSteMarie> What was really excessive about this was that I had separate events set up for objects when they were like, the thing that caused the collision and when they were the thing that was collided against.

23:52 <Cepheid> Heh.

23:53 <Sombra> I was glad they followed the original animated movie fairly well.

23:53 <SaultSteMarie> did mufasa still die?

23:54 <SaultSteMarie> No at that I'm pretty sure in the original story like everyone died, right?

23:55 <Sombra> The worst part of the movie was emma watson though.  Not only was she the only character not to fit the disney character, but she also had the worst acting performance

23:55 <Fn> Lua scrip is such a pita

23:55 <Fn> Doesn't help that Steam blocks it too

23:55 <Night_Blitz> Lua is... eccentric

23:55 <Sombra> I don't even like Luke Evans, but even he wasn't terrible in the movie.

23:55 <SaultSteMarie> oh wait no

23:55 <Cepheid> It is, yes.

23:56 <SaultSteMarie> Why would Steam block Lua

23:56 <Sombra> It's probably his best performance, which, I mean, isn't saying a lot, but, ya know.

23:56 <Cepheid> Fn:  Steam blocks Lua?  What?

23:56 <SaultSteMarie> lua's really common

23:56 <Fn> I only dealt with lua because there is no other way to revive hidden scripts in Mafia 2

23:57 <Cepheid> I don't recall Steam ever blocking Lua execution for anything.

23:57 <Cepheid> Starbound uses Lua extensively these days.

23:57 <Fn> Cepheid it doesn't allow lua injectors for the games, counts them as broken

23:57 <SaultSteMarie> oh man I also made my own pointer system because I needed a way for save games to like... objects could store pointers to other objects so you needed to be able to save this and have it properly rebuild the pointers on reload

23:57 <Cepheid> Ah.  Injectors.  That's a different story.

23:57 <Cepheid> SaultSteMarie:  That on the other hand is common.

23:57 <Fn> For mafia 2 you can do it only with an injector

23:58 <SaultSteMarie> I did this really dumb thing early on though wher eI was just converting pointers to int32s :3

23:58 <Cepheid> Gotta be a special case with that game then, though.

23:58 <SaultSteMarie> and like literally never handling any pointers as actual pointers, JUST as integers. Cause I didn't raelize you could pass pointers as generic objects or w/e into lua

23:58 <Cepheid> 'Cause an injector exists for Skyrim, Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, etc.

23:58 <Fn> Yeah, mafia is proprietary

23:58 <Cepheid> And none of them are blocked.  In fact, one of them actually exists as a downloadable mod on Steam.

23:58 <SaultSteMarie> Bethesda's games have lua injectors?

23:58 <Fn> Written by a very small eastern-europe studio

23:59 <Cepheid> Not Lua injectors.

23:59 <Cepheid> But they add new functionality.

23:59 <SaultSteMarie> oh yeah those are different

23:59 <Fn> No one has reverse-engineered their code for modding, and they don't share it either

23:59 <Cepheid> And replace entire subsystems in the game to improve performance and stability.

23:59 <SaultSteMarie> Morrowind's script extenders are sort of mindblowing

23:59 <Cepheid> If you want, you can replace the memory system in the script extenders for the Bethesda games.

23:59 <SaultSteMarie> Considering their scope and that at the time I'm not really aware of anything else like that existing for games
