03:11 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, do they have a lot of the same model?  They'll probably drop the price when there's only a couple left

03:11 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 they only got 5 xD

03:11 <PinkieShy> most is blue :P

03:12 <Thelema5> Since they're going out of business, it couldn't hurt to ask the store manager for an additional discount.  Offer him $20 and see what he says.  Couldn't hurt.

03:12 <Thelema5> He's losing his job, so he probably won't care much either way

03:18 * Schism sniffs the muffin curiously, but nonetheless provides CleverDerpy with this one! Also provides cream cheese and butter for it.

03:18 <Schism> (Morning glory muffins have raisins, dates, and carrots, as well as some nuts!)

03:18 <Thelema5> Sounds delicious

03:19 <Thelema5> Add some rum and you have a fruitcakemuffin

03:19 <Schism> Thankfully, they do not have that hideous multicoloured fruitstuff.

03:19 <Schism> One of these days I'm going to buy the ingredients to make a proper fruitcake.

03:20 <Thelema5> I've seen recipes

03:21 *** Quits: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony) (Quit: Bye)

03:21 <Schism> Heh.  Thelema5: In the Shadowrun universe, Dunkelzahn and another dragon played a variant of 'tag', where every Christmas, they would hire teams to infiltrate the other's security and deliver a fruitcake to their desk.

03:22 * Thelema5 snerk

03:23 <Schism> It's implied that between 2020 and 2057, they exchanged the same fruitcakes.

03:24 <Thelema5> What became of the other one?

03:24 <Thelema5> Or, they recycled the same ones.

03:24 <Thelema5> I see

03:24 <Schism> It's not like either dragon, who are of course of discerning taste, would actually eat the things.

03:25 <Schism> This remains the best insight that any Shadowrun player has ever seen into the minds of said dragons.  It's alternately hilarious and saddening, because Dunkelzahn, unlike most of the others, was genuinely and truly good.  http://shadowrun.wikia.com/wiki/Dunkelzahn%27s_Will

03:34 <Schism> Still don't know where 'a rock meets the sky' is meant to be, tho.  I guess Denver would be a suitable location?

03:34 * Schism rolls over and offers Princess-Luna some espresso moon pies.

03:35 <Thelema5> Hmm.  I need a human interest angle on the benefits of selecting a pre-need casket

03:35 <Thelema5> "something that might draw a few tears"

03:36 <Schism> Do you really want to leave the selection of your casket to your family and loved ones?  In a time of grief, they don't want that weight upon their hearts as well; you may as well do what you can to ease the transition by preparing ahead.

03:37 <Schism> Gods alive, I'm cynical.

03:37 <Thelema5> Too newsy.  The client wants something "to pull at the heartstrings" :/

03:38 <Thelema5> Pls.  I just sold an article which basically threatened the lives of the families of those who don't purchase a certain home security system

03:38 <Schism> That angle might still work, just needs to be a little punchier.

03:38 <Schism> So, when exactly did you sell your soul?

03:38 <Thelema5> XD

03:38 <Thelema5> Such an antiquated social engineering construct

03:40 <Thelema5> "But the real tragedy is that these terrible crimes could be avoided with a little less complacency. A little bit of warning. A little bit of security. Don�t leave your safety- and the safety of your family- to chance." Segue to product placement.

03:40 <Thelema5> Ah ha ha ha

03:40 <Schism> "And when your loved ones are still dealing with the grief of your passing, they'll be approached, and asked to pick out the best thing for you to be buried in.  Are they going to choose wisely?  No!  They'll be struck with grief, they'll want to pick out the most expensive option, to their ruin and dismay."

03:40 <Thelema5> Heh

03:41 <Thelema5> In other words, If you don't buy a reasonable casket you're going to force your children into bankruptcy.  I like it.

03:41 <Schism> Certainly not bankruptcy, but funeral arrangements are, as a whole, pretty expensive.

03:42 <Schism> But yeah, play it up.  X3

03:43 <Schism> On that note, Piers Anthony's Hard Sell remains a hilarious book, possibly one of the best he's written.

03:43 <Thelema5> Quite.  My father in law recently passed, and he was a very frugal man.  He premade his arrangements- no service, no marker, no visiting hours.  Same-day creamation, delivery of the cremains in (yes, literally) a cardboard box.

03:43 <Thelema5> That still cost $4500+

03:43 <Schism> Cripes.

03:43 <Thelema5> Well, there's transportation and handling fees.

03:43 <Schism> Did he arrange to have a gold coin left in his box so that he could pay the ferryman, or did he just decide he'd swim across Styx?

03:43 <Thelema5> Of course.

03:44 <Thelema5> :p

03:45 <Schism> When I die, just dump me in the potter's field.

03:46 <Schism> Save the $4500 for the liquor.

03:48 <Schism> Hehe.  When my grandfather passed on, he'd left a bottle of liquor for the occasion - a scotch with a wax eagle's head seal.  Except... that bottle had not been properly stored, and the seal had broken at some point, and everyone who partook of it found it took out my grandfather's revenge on them.

03:48 <Thelema5> Oh no!

03:48 <Schism> That or it was just a bad scotch in the first place.

03:49 <Schism> I do like to giggle about things like that, which proves me a horrible person.

03:49 <Thelema5> When my mother passed we held her memorial in her favorite bar where she is greatly missed.

03:49 <Thelema5> Not even kidding.

03:50 <Thelema5> At least people had a good time.

03:50 <PinkieShy> wanna know what is disappointing and stupid?

03:50 <Thelema5> I'm sure there is a long list, but what's on your mind?

03:50 * Schism nods, "When my grandmother passed on, the arrangements for her wake included a greasy spoon diner, a long, LONG-running diner in Waterloo."

03:50 <PinkieShy> America bans Kinder Surprise Eggs and supposedly if you go to Canada and try to smuggle some over the border i heard they can find you $1,200 per egg.

03:51 <Schism> Well, if you do so, you're running illegal materials with intent to sell.

03:51 <PinkieShy> Why is that chocolate candy everywhere else but not America XD

03:51 <Thelema5> And yet any 16 ear old kid can walk into walmart and buy a shotgun.

03:51 <Thelema5> *year

03:51 <Schism> PinkieShy: Because people suck at threat evaluation.

03:51 <Thelema5> We just need to hide toys inside chocolate shotgun shells.

03:52 <Thelema5> It's win-win

03:52 <Schism> Hey, we have a new Christmas candy idea!  ...I'm going to shut up now.

03:52 <Thelema5> :p

03:52 <PinkieShy> Schism and Thelema5 does the FDA and such think america is a bunch of low IQ people that don't know how to eat a candy without choking on the toy inside lel

03:52 <PinkieShy> i mean yowie is like kinder but they allow that.. as well as Wonder ball

03:52 <Schism> PinkieShy, would it be worse if they did think that, or if they didn't?

03:53 <PinkieShy> Well google says its only banned over a  law from 1938 banning food that has non-editable items inside.. maybe they should rethink that..

03:53 <Thelema5> I'm sure the candy just falls under a general safety guideline which validly prohibits all sort of dangerous stuff.

03:54 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i heard its a plastic egg that's almost even to hard for adults to open to get the toy out

03:54 <Schism> Since we're two months from All Saints' Eve, I'm going to jump ahead of everyone and say that there have been no verified incidents of razor blades in caramel apples.

03:54 <Thelema5> I know there is a certain diameter tube which is used as the determining factor in what toys can be sold to children; it's the size of a child's esophagus.  If the toy fits down, the product is banned

03:55 <PinkieShy> This Eye floater is annoying me :( But local eye doctor told me if retina damage was from the eclipse looking it wouldn't have a floater..

03:55 <Schism> No, eclipse damage would not include floaters.

03:55 <Thelema5> I just hope my latest batch of cider is ready before then, Schism

03:55 <Schism> Even if it's not, you get Thanksgiving /after/ Hallow's Eve, so.

03:56 <Thelema5> It should be.  I'll be racking into secondary next weekend.

03:56 <PinkieShy> Schism The floater is very annoying lol

03:56 <Schism> They tend to be, yes.

03:56 <PinkieShy> Its like a gnat flying around in my eyes

03:56 <Thelema5> Don't they go away over time?

03:56 <PinkieShy> well 'eye' since its only my left eye

03:56 <Schism> Ignore it, it'll go away.  Ooh, shiny!

03:57 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i asked them but they said it might go to the bottom of my eye where its not noticeable but its still there but can take up to 6 months..

03:57 <PinkieShy> I'm glad to be here :P You guys are amazing

05:04 <Unown> So what do you guys like about mlp the most?

05:04 <Starwatcher> me?

05:05 <Unown> Anyone

05:05 <Starwatcher> well

05:05 <CleverDerpy> I like that it's simple and charming, yet can expand on civilized concepts

05:05 <Starwatcher> to me it's a picture of what life could be like if we learned to celebrate our differences.

05:05 <Starwatcher> unicorns, pegasi and earth ponies are very different, but they love and share and live in peace

05:05 <Starwatcher> and that's the kind of thing we have to work for.

05:05 <Unown> thats cool

05:06 <Unown> I first listened to a few songs from a guy on youtube called ponyphonic

05:06 <Unown> they were really good

05:06 <Unown> shocked me

05:06 <Schism> Ponky and Eccentrifuge are also quite good.

05:07 <Unown> then I saw a phoenix wright mlp cross over

05:07 <CleverDerpy> you should check out different pony artists, we still got tons of great ones

05:07 <Unown> Ill check them out for sure

05:10 <Schism> Perhaps for the best - they're radio dramas and quite long indeed.

05:10 <Golden> Good night everyone

05:11 <Unown> Yeah turnabout storm was over 8 hours

05:11 <Unown> was worth it

05:11 * Schism nodnods, "Have you watched any of Doctor Who?"

05:12 <Unown> sort of

05:12 *** Quits: Golden (Golden@Pony-na3lhc.co.comcast.net) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

05:12 <Schism> Oh?

05:12 <Unown> Its one of those things I mean to get into but keep forgetting

05:13 <Schism> Fair enough.

05:13 <Unown> I should know more though as you hear about it all the time in various cultural references

05:14 <Schism> Well, in effect, the Doctor is a quasi-immortal time traveler who takes people from Earth, regularly, as his 'companions', because he couldn't stay sane without someone grounded in reality to regularly bring him back to what's actually going on.

05:15 <Schism> These companions tend to be useful in their own right as well.

05:16 <Unown> incredible, 1963

05:16 <Schism> Yeah, it's been going for a long time.

05:16 <Schism> I would say that while the US had Star Trek, the UK had Doctor Who.

05:17 *** Joins: Jahnesta (Jahnesta@Pony-5o0k53.dynamic.ziggo.nl)

05:17 <Jahnesta> Hey

05:17 <Schism> Hiyas.

05:17 <Unown> Hio

05:18 <Jahnesta> I just watched the very first Dr Who episode

05:18 <Schism> Unown: There was a rather sizeable gap between the classic episodes and the new series, but it picked up quite nicely.

05:18 <Jahnesta> It was black and white and old, but it still wasn't a bad episode 😛

05:19 <Schism> Nah.  Just don't expect much in the way of canon between the oldest episodes and the new series, Jahnesta.  X3

05:19 <Jahnesta> No?

05:20 <Jahnesta> So what happens in the black and white episodes is not canon?

05:20 <Schism> Well, Daleks eventually learned how to navigate stairs...

05:20 <Jahnesta> That is pretty canon

05:20 <Schism> The original episodes were kinda meant to be a scientific sort of show.  They gave up on that one pretty quickly.

05:21 <Unown> 26 seasons is a lot to catch up on lol

05:22 <Jahnesta> I andmit it's probably the way he looked, but I kinda thought the very first Doctor would be kinda mean and grumpy

05:22 <Schism> You can generally get away with the new series, Unown.

05:22 <Jahnesta> I indeed got somethings to do Unown x3

05:22 <Schism> Jahnesta: Nah, the First Doctor was more of a weird grandpa.  X3

05:22 <Jahnesta> Something

05:22 <Unown> Maybe Ill start there then Schism

05:22 <Jahnesta> Autocorrect

05:22 <Schism> Unown: Just don't skip the first seasons of the new series, like JAHNESTA did.

05:23 <Jahnesta> And when exactly does it count as the "New Series" Schism?

05:23 <Jahnesta> I started at season 5

05:23 <Jahnesta> :/

05:23 <Jahnesta> Cus that's what Netflix has

05:24 <Jahnesta> Why am I all capitals bdw xD

05:24 <Schism> Different Netflixes... anyway, the new series starts with Christopher Eccleston as the 9th Doctor.  

05:24 <Schism> (Technically 10th, but that's aside the point.)

05:24 <Jahnesta> So I can skip all the black and white stuff?

05:25 <Schism> It's only black-and-white in the time of the first... I want to say two Doctors.

05:25 <Jahnesta> Wel you meant that regeneration where he didn't call hi,self "The Doctor" right?

05:25 <Jahnesta> Well

05:25 <Jahnesta> Himself... Ahh you get it!

05:26 <Schism> The War Doctor only showed up in that one episode.

05:26 <Jahnesta> Oh really?

05:26 <Jahnesta> Not in any older ones?

05:26 <Schism> But it was heavily implied that that is what happened during the 30-year hiatus the series went through.

05:26 <Jahnesta> I mean that very old one with the beard!

05:26 <Jahnesta> Could very well be

05:27 <Schism> No, he was never the focus of any other episodes.

05:27 <Jahnesta> Brb

05:28 <Unown> So why are there more than one doctors?

05:28 <Jahnesta> Icknow

05:28 <Jahnesta> I know!

05:28 <Schism> In effect, he's the same person, but he's not human: he's of a species known as "Time Lords".

05:28 <Tirek> Because we can't afford to pay for all 7 billion people's travel expenses just for this one guy capable of providing health care.

05:28 *** Quits: Filly_Nightmares (Surreal@Cutest.Floofy.Changeling.Batpone) (Quit: The only things I need are books, friends and IRC. And books.)

05:29 <Jahnesta> Unown And if the body of a Time Lord gets too old, he can get a new one!

05:29 <Schism> Time Lords have the capability to regenerate after they die, up to 11 times -- giving them 12 lives in total.

05:29 <Jahnesta> :D

05:29 <Unown> ah ok so its him assuming different bodies

05:29 <Schism> Each time they regenerate, they find themselves with a new body, and also a new personality.

05:29 <Jahnesta> Eyyup!

05:29 <Jahnesta> :3

05:29 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares

05:29 <Jahnesta> But the same person!

05:29 <Schism> Still with the memories of the old, but those memories are kinda more like reading a book.

05:30 <Jahnesta> That must feel weird!

05:30 <Schism> They know what happened before, but they aren't exactly the same person as the main character of the story.

05:30 <Jahnesta> I know the current one can still remember Amy Pond!

05:30 <Schism> The current one knows that he loved her like a daughter.  ;-;

05:30 <Jahnesta> ;(

05:31 <Jahnesta> He does with all his companions

05:31 <Jahnesta> I believe it have always been girls bdw :P

05:31 <Schism> Anyway, that's more or less how it goes, Unown.  Without godlike intervention, Doctors are limited to 11 regenerations, or 12 forms in total, like a clock.

05:31 <Jahnesta> Wow

05:31 <Unown> what limits that?

05:32 <Jahnesta> Schism I never looked at it that way before!

05:32 <Jahnesta> :0

05:32 <Schism> Unown: In the series, there's a thing called the 'Eye of Harmony', a sun turned into a power source for time energy.  This powers the TARDISes - their time machines - and also provides them with those regenerative abilities.

05:32 <Jahnesta> Wait i think I've seen that

05:33 <Unown> damn man this show sounds really good

05:33 <Jahnesta> In one Matt Smith episode, I believe Journey To The Center Of The TARDIS

05:33 <Jahnesta> They actually go to the power source

05:34 <Jahnesta> A exploding sun, trapped in time to provide the power

05:34 <Jahnesta> Right?

05:34 <Schism> Yupyup.  The source of Artron energy.

05:34 <Jahnesta> Yays

05:34 <Jahnesta> :D

05:35 <Unown> thats incredible

05:35 <Schism> Because if you're going to hijack a piece of the universe to give you strength, might as well make it a gigantic thermonuclear power plant.

05:35 <Unown> haha

05:35 <Unown> good point

05:35 <Jahnesta> And Unown, you really should check it out!

05:35 <Unown> I think I will tonight

05:35 <Schism> Most of the show doesn't really delve into canon that deeply, tho.

05:35 <Unown> might have to get a torrent or something

05:38 <Schism> But that's okay, it's bigger on the inside.  o3o

05:38 <Jahnesta> I saw that in the very first episode!

05:43 <Schism> I promise, the David Tennant Doctor is possibly the best.  Even if he never had a fez scene.

05:43 <Jahnesta> He said it looked like a boring show, but it's really fun

05:43 <Jahnesta> No fezzes?!?! :0

05:43 <Jahnesta> Wait

05:43 <Schism> “A fez? You’re kidding me, you’re going to put Matt in a fez? If we put Matt in a fez, Matt will never take the fez off. He will want to wear the fez for the whole of the next series. It will be glued to his head. He’ll be wearing it, you know, with his own clothes. It will be a nightmare.” And he said, “No no, I’ve got a cunning plan; as soon as he’s got the fez I’m going to kill the fez.”

05:43 <Jahnesta> In that crossover episode I think he does!p

08:29 <ConfusionRift> How, they went all F-Zero now.

08:30 <ConfusionRift> *Huh, not how

08:33 <Tirek> Kinda, yeah.

08:33 <Tirek> I only got four myself.

08:37 <ConfusionRift> They start leaving holes and open gaps in the 6th, and a bunch of spike balls.

08:39 <Tirek> Yeah, I heard a lot of complaints about the 6th.

08:40 <Tirek> 7th one is a lot easier, I'm also told.

08:44 <ConfusionRift> Right at the start, there's a problem. There are rows of spike balls, with a ramp on certain spots. You have to choose either ignore the rings and jump over the hurdles, or take the ramp for rings and slow down. The problem starts when entering a ramp at an angle. The camera remains fixed at that angle as long as you remain in the air.

08:45 <ConfusionRift> You're not sure at what angle your landing, and at times Sonic fixes the angle through a ramp, but the camera still remains tilted for a while.

08:45 <ConfusionRift> Oh yeah, plenty of U turns.

08:48 <ConfusionRift> It's so hard to turn at Mk 3!

08:49 <Tirek> Yep.

08:49 <Tirek> Good luck.

08:53 <ConfusionRift> Yeeees!!!

08:54 <ConfusionRift> Got the 6th. Now... to the 7th.

08:54 <ConfusionRift> I noticed that in most Sonic games the middle emeralds are the hardest ones.

08:55 <Tirek> Yep.

08:58 <ConfusionRift> Oooooh!

08:58 <ConfusionRift> No walls, just holes in the 7th, and the UFO is waaay ahead.

09:05 <ConfusionRift> Okay... never mind. There's a path that basically you're on the UFO's tail at all times. Just get used to the angle jumping.

09:21 <Tirek> Metallic Madness is a rehash from Sonic CD, and it was, in fact, based loosely off of Scrap Brain.

09:22 <Tirek> All the levels in CD seem to have some loose inspiration from Sonic 1.

09:22 <ConfusionRift> But there are Asterons. :P

09:30 <ConfusionRift> Is it just me, or at times Sonic sticks to ramps and such, even when you're trying to outdo it with jumping and such?

09:41 <Tirek> Yeah, that's a quirk of the new physics.

11:02 <Braixen> i liked it as dark red

11:02 <Jahnesta> No the letters are different

11:02 <Tirek> They have to change everything every time.

11:03 <Tirek> It's the natural evolution of people who can't leave a thing that isn't broken 'fixed'.

11:03 <Jahnesta> And the logo may be slightly lighter rain

11:03 <Jahnesta> Red!

11:03 <Jahnesta> Can’t blame autocorrect now...

11:04 <Jahnesta> xD

11:05 <Jahnesta> Tirek Well i don’t think it would be that much of a change acctually

11:05 <Tirek> No, probably not.

11:05 <Tirek> It was a big enough change that my youtube enhancement plugin became unusable though.

11:05 <Jahnesta> What’s that?

11:06 <ConfusionRift> I guess they went the extra mile after the interface change.

11:07 <Tirek> It let me do a bunch of stuff including download vids.

11:07 <Jahnesta> You can also use an converter for that right?

11:08 <Tirek> Right, but it meant I didn't have to go to a different site to download what I wanted.

11:08 <Jahnesta> There should just be a ’’Download Video’’ butten next to a video

11:09 <ConfusionRift> I use ant.com video downloader. Let's me download videos from multiple formats from many sites.

11:09 <Jahnesta> Maybe they just updated some stuff

11:09 <Jahnesta> Like that

11:09 <Jahnesta> And maybe now videos load quicker or something? :P

11:10 <ConfusionRift> But it requires some resource use.

11:10 <ConfusionRift> Hah!

11:10 <Jahnesta> x3

11:10 <ConfusionRift> Load quicker... that's a client issue, not necessarily their system.

11:10 <Jahnesta> Well but something like that

11:11 <Jahnesta> Or maybe they updated the recommended system

11:34 <Jahnesta> Nice

11:34 <Cepheid> And it's fixed.

11:35 <Jahnesta> :D

11:35 <Cepheid> The reason it's important to fill out the form is that I can get extra funding from OSAP because I'll be making zilch, nada, zero, null, naught over the next eight months.

11:38 <Jahnesta> No wait, awnser me later, gotta run

12:09 <Cepheid> There's actually one play I wouldn't mind sitting through, regardless of the content, and purely for the music.

12:10 <Cepheid> I would like to see Peer Gynt.

12:10 <Schism> ... now, there aren't any car geeks around here, are there?

12:11 <ConfusionRift> Hmm?

12:11 <ConfusionRift> Know somethin' about cars.

12:12 <Schism> I have recently been exposed to an image of a shiny Mustang with what I can only assume are stickers on the very well-waxed black doors.

12:13 <ConfusionRift> Uh-huh?

12:13 <Schism> It's... the tackiest car I've seen in a long time, and the fact that it's ordinarily a very good car renders it even more horrific.  Ah well.

12:14 <ConfusionRift> It can also be a top coat on the paint, vinyl, or even actual paint. Chances are it could be a sticker.

12:14 <Cepheid> Hum, I am practically writing this story in phases from ending to start, now..

12:15 <Schism> It's a car belonging to Sebastian Gorka.  I'm guessing 'sticker'.

12:15 <Cepheid> Or at least, the key points anyways.

12:15 <Schism> Could possibly be a decal, but I have my doubts there.

12:16 <ConfusionRift> I don't know since I can't see it.

12:18 <ConfusionRift> I see the car, but not the designs.

12:18 <Schism> Here you go.  https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DImSmxmXYAAEemE.jpg

12:18 <ConfusionRift> Stickers.

12:19 <Cepheid> Definitely stickers.

12:19 <Schism> Stickers.  On that car.

12:19 <Cepheid> Bumper stickers, basically.  Just a different form of them.

12:19 <ConfusionRift> Have seen worse.

12:19 <Schism> Oh, not just bumper stickers.  Door stickers.

12:19 <Schism> So.  Basically ruining the paintjob forever.

12:20 <ConfusionRift> Not really.

12:20 <ConfusionRift> There are tricks to removing a sticker/decal/vinyl of paint job, without tarnishing it.

12:20 <Schism> Think those tricks are going to get used?

12:21 <ConfusionRift> Hey, that would be the user's fault. :P

12:21 <Cepheid> Why do you care, anyways?  It's not your car. :P

12:21 <Schism> As would putting them on there in the first place...

12:21 <Schism> Cepheid: For the same reason you twitch when you see someone sticking things to their computer case with refrigerator magnets.

12:21 <ConfusionRift> I think Schism is a bit hurt, since it's a nice caaa-eeergh...

12:21 <Cepheid> Those actually do damage.

12:22 <Cepheid> Stickers on a car do literally nothing to impact it's performance.

12:22 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, not fond of Mustangs.

12:22 <Schism> Granted, but there's something in this kind of stupidity that makes me hurt anyway.

12:22 <ConfusionRift> In certain circumstances, they CAN destroy paint jobs and finishes.

12:23 <ConfusionRift> It depends on the addon.

12:23 <ConfusionRift> What can also happen is the sticker is gonna leave the glue behind, making it frustrating to remove.

12:24 <Cepheid> Hmm.

12:24 * Cepheid is thinking.

12:24 <Schism> This is doubly the case when it's an inexpensive sticker.

12:24 <ConfusionRift> In any case, I don't think we should worry to much about it. Not our car. :P

12:25 <Schism> This is reasonable.  ... kinda want to see that thing drive off a pier, tho.

12:25 <Cepheid> I need a way to indicate that there is something 'odd' or out of place in a given room or region without blatantly giving away that something is THERE.  It can't entirely be completely audio-based, due to deaf or hard-of-hearing people.  At the least, not without some way for them to notice something is off, anyways.

12:25 <ConfusionRift> It's a 'Stang, so wouldn't mind seeing it fly. :P

12:25 <Schism> Cepheid: How about a very, very fine static overlay?

12:25 <Cepheid> I was thinking initially a quiet white noise static that's barely perceptible as the player walks by said area.  But that's purely auditory.

12:26 <ConfusionRift> The feeling of some unknown presence?

12:26 <Schism> Visual static overlay, that is.

12:26 <ConfusionRift> Ooooh!

12:26 <Cepheid> It's for a game.  It has to be something that can be perceived but doesn't blatantly give away the secret.

12:26 <Schism> Little bits of white noise floating across the screen, barely noticable.

12:27 <ConfusionRift> Aaah, like screen static, like in old CRTs and VCRs.

12:27 <Cepheid> To get an idea as to what the secret is, in the post-game of my game, the player will have to go around and find "weaknesses" in the simulation to enter a world "behind the world" so to speak.  Glitch openings into a world with winding tunnels, or individual rooms.

12:27 <Cepheid> Yeah, white noise on the screen would work. if ever so barely perceptible.

12:27 <Schism> Very, very faint, of course.

12:28 <Cepheid> The intent is to give a hint that something is there, if you're paying attention.  The goal being that the player keeps it in the back of their mind.

12:28 <Schism> Or every so often, a frame 'blinking' and turning into a single vertical line.

12:28 <Schism> Or horizontal.

12:28 <Cepheid> Or something along the edges of the screen that pops up for a single frame.

12:28 <Cepheid> Something small.  To make it look like it's just something in the periphery of one's vision.

12:29 <Schism> Tiny things which are suggestive, rather than explicit.  Even just a dot or two.

12:29 <ConfusionRift> What kind of game?

12:29 <Cepheid> A single vertical or horizontal line, or a pixel or two.

12:29 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift:  Metroidvania/Bullet Hell.

12:29 <ConfusionRift> I seeeee. :P

12:29 <Cepheid> The best example Rabi-Ribi has would have been the endless pit.

12:29 <Schism> Maybe even a flicker on that one tile.

12:29 <Cepheid> You can get to it at any time, but you can't do anything with it except fall endlessly.

12:30 <Cepheid> And for some reason, it is WELL protected.

12:30 <Cepheid> In this case, the world is a digital, virtual world.  A simulation with various intelligent AI NPCs in it, etc.  But of course, it's a program.  There are bugs.

12:30 <ConfusionRift> Maybe something like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxtygoMRsR8

12:31 *** Joins: FreezeFrame (Darryl@Pony-ihjqun.fios.verizon.net)

12:31 <ConfusionRift> But more subtle.

12:31 <Tirek> That's good.

12:31 <Schism> If you want to make it more obvious, could have the glitch affect the player character's sprite in one frame or another.

12:31 <Cepheid> Yeah, that could work.

12:31 <FreezeFrame> I return from having to crash at my folks' place while a preventative bedbug barrier treatment was done at my apartment.

12:32 <Tirek> Welcome back to here.

12:32 * Schism hugs the FreezeFrame. "Bedbugs and earwigs suuuck."

12:33 <ConfusionRift> Schism: Hmm, maybe something close to what they did in Axion Verge's secret rooms?

12:33 <Cepheid> Essentially, by the point the player gets to be able to abuse these bugs in the program, they have since been "fixed" in a sense.  If one were to enter the regions before the "fix", it would be akin to walking Mario through a level that was created by a pure byte randomizer.  It'd be garbage everywhere.

12:33 <Cepheid> The fix in this case is to "initialize" the regions with emptiness, and then apply data to make the regions traversable, if only just barely.  They lead to empty rooms with items, or tunnels that lead to entirely disconnected regions of the main world.

12:34 <Schism> Cepheid: You should play Iji for long enough to acquire the Null Driver.

12:34 <FreezeFrame> They weren't found in my apartment, hence why it was only a barrier treatment.

12:34 * AVBO123 is here.

12:34 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift:  Sort of.  Only with a cleaner appearance.  As if someone went through the area, and replaced all the corrupted and damaged data with something clean to make it easier, if still somewhat dangerous, to traverse.

12:35 <Cepheid> It won't immediately kill anyone who enters, or cause damage to the system.  But if you want to traverse it, you're going to be dealing with things that can still hurt you.

12:35 <Cepheid> Only so much that can be done to repair something from within.

12:36 * Pi yawns

12:36 <Pi> Evenin

12:36 <ConfusionRift> Hmm, so basically going through corrupted data?

12:36 <Schism> I'm kinda thinking 'Kid Radd' here.

12:36 <Cepheid> Plus the idea that if there were lots of these little spaces, you'd want to go through them as quickly as possible and clean up what can and will cause long-term damage to entities that enter, or to the system itself.

12:37 <Cepheid> "It's a slow process to clean all of this up."

12:37 <Schism> You can simulate that in part by having the player character's HP slowly drop as they're in those zones.

12:37 <ConfusionRift> So yeah, a corrupted sector. But instead of just traversing, you have to fix what's broken or missing.

12:38 <Schism> Or just grab what you can out of 'em.

12:38 <ConfusionRift> Or maybe add a stipulation.

12:38 <Cepheid> Only it's not the player that's fixing it.  The "fixing" comes from a character that works with everyone else in the simulation *AFTER* the main story final boss.

12:39 <Cepheid> Prior to that point, no one has any knowledge of these regions of the world.  As far as they know, they don't exist.

12:39 <Schism> Some areas might preclude you from firing your main weapon, or any secondaries, or keep you from regenerating HP, or the like.

12:39 <Schism> Or enemies might regenerate your HP instead of reducing it, and you die if you don't touch them in time.

12:40 <Schism> Inverse gravity is also always a laugh.

12:40 <Cepheid> Heh.

12:40 <Cepheid> Or simply flipping the view.

12:40 <Schism> Tomaeto, tomahto.

12:40 <Schism> Popoto, Lalafell.

12:40 <ConfusionRift> "Jumping was never intended in this area, so it was never programmed. That would mean you can't jump in here." | "For some reason, the controls were never mapped correctly, your directional movement is mirrored."

12:42 <Cepheid> "The physics data for this region is all garbage.  You may find yourself having trouble jumping.  Or gravity and friction might not exist."

12:42 <Cepheid> "This entire region runs through all the entity management data.  You may find copies of your friends, and some of them may be... aggressive."

12:43 <Schism> "These blocks are kind of ... well, just keep an eye on them.  Some of them might not exist."

12:43 <Cepheid> Perfect explanation for Dr. Wily-style block puzzles. :P

12:43 <ConfusionRift> "I think this got removed, due to a sadist ramping difficulty too high. Monsters that cannot be destroyed. Really? Well, at least they can't move... I think."

12:45 <ConfusionRift> "Garbage data lands here. Not much else to say. You might be able to find something that was long lost or destroyed."

12:45 <Cepheid> That actually is a good idea.

12:45 <ConfusionRift> I do like that one too. :P

12:46 * AVBO123 pokes themself. Blinks.

12:46 <Cepheid> Mind you, all of this will only be detailable *AFTER* the final boss of the main storyline.

12:47 <ConfusionRift> Of course. It could even be information or details that only show up once you have beaten the main game and the corrupted sector.

12:47 <Cepheid> As prior to the end-game events, no one knows that the world itself is just a simulation created by a bunch of nerds.  With exception to two people, the main antagonist, and one other person who knows better to keep their mouth shut about such a detail until it becomes necessary to explain it.

12:47 <Cepheid> Don't want your little artificial intelligences to have an existential crisis.

12:48 <ConfusionRift> Especially since they think these areas don't exist.

12:48 <Cepheid> Mmmhmm.  To them, all the entrances to these regions appear and sound like would be equivalent to a minor hallucination.

12:49 <ConfusionRift> Hmmm, slowly starting to sound like The Magic Circle.

12:49 <Cepheid> Plus most of them are out in the open world, and why go exploring dangerous places with monsters if you got a perfectly safe village/town with all the resources you need nearby?

12:50 <ConfusionRift> Would be nice if the names of the areas were the entity names.

12:51 <Cepheid> Implying that the areas in question are connected to the AIs that live in the world?

12:51 <ConfusionRift> Somewhat.

12:52 <Cepheid> In any case, the purpose for these regions is mostly hiding health-ups and such.  But one particular region is actually a winding path that one takes to reach an important area that was recently closed off by a cave-in.

12:52 <ConfusionRift> Like, maybe there's one area that people has some recollection that it exists, but was removed, so they can only referred to it as an error handle, or identifier.

12:52 <Cepheid> The person that caused the cave-in didn't want to be followed to where they were going.  But we need to get to them anyways.

12:52 <Schism> ConfusionRift: Eee, The Magic Circle was great.

12:53 <Cepheid> So we use a glitch in the system to work our way around the cave-in and get close to where we need to go.

12:53 * Schism casually breaks the whims of the developers... except Coda. She gets her own quite fast.

12:54 <Schism> Cepheid: And the questions begin to appear...

12:55 <Cepheid> The questions about the world appear prior to the final boss of the main storyline.  Because at that point, the antagonist has gone insane from being in the simulation for too long, and will do anything to escape, even risking his own death by shutting down the simulation.

12:56 <Cepheid> At which point, it would kind of have to be revealed what's going on to all the others.

12:56 <Schism> Sakura Syndrome, poor jerk.

12:56 <Cepheid> He's later [REDACTED]-slapped something fierce by the main character, and after months of therapy, he calms down, and works to keep everyone alive.

12:57 <Cepheid> Using his knowledge of system internals to try and repair any remaining problems in the system.  He's the one who suggests using the glitch regions to get around the cave-in.

12:57 <Cepheid> As he's been working to make the regions relatively safe-ish for traversal alongside improving system stability.

12:58 <Cepheid> It still fits in the grand scheme of things, as a simulation with any type of true AI is likely a self-writing program of sorts.  As such, the system can be rewritten and fixed from within just as well as it can be fixed from without.

13:09 <Cepheid> Pony Island is basically one giant puzzle.

13:09 <Jahnesta> Oh

13:09 <Schism> Long since used up, but that was kinda neat.

14:54 <AVBO123> Wait

14:54 <AVBO123> So does that mean I flopped onto Spitfire and you, or just Spitfire?

14:58 <Cepheid> Dunno.  Upstairs on my bed I presume.

14:59 <AVBO123> oh

14:59 <AVBO123> Wait, so I'm in your house now?

14:59 <Cepheid> Lately she's been biting less, though.  Probably something to do with how I've been trying to get her more comfortable with being in my bedroom.  I've been putting her on my bed on a regular basis to tell her that she's allowed to be on it.

14:59 <AVBO123> Did I just telaport when I flopd

15:00 <Cepheid> Apparently.

15:00 <Cepheid> Hmm.

15:01 <Cepheid> Do I want to use palette-based colouring of sprites and tiles?  The downside is that the number of colours is limited at a given time(256 colours), but it does allow for easy swapping of palettes and changing appearances quickly, and doesn't restrict artwork to set colours.

15:02 <Cepheid> On the other hand, I'm not sure how much of a performance impact there would be in constantly swapping palettes in and out.

15:02 <AVBO123> Sorry?

15:02 <Cepheid> 256 colours = 4 floats at 4 bytes each.  So 256 * 4 * 4 = 4096 bytes.

15:02 <Cepheid> I'm talking about technical software stuff.

15:02 <AVBO123> Oh.

15:03 <AVBO123> By the thing that works.

15:03 <Cepheid> Hum..

15:03 *** Quits: Lord_Greener (The_Greene@Pony-o76.963.76.185.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

15:04 <Cepheid> The SNES allowed a maximum of 256 colours at a given time.

15:04 <AVBO123> I have old games I got a thing to plug into computer to emyulate

15:05 *** Joins: Lord_Greener (The_Greene@Pony-h6m.963.76.185.IP)

15:06 <Cepheid> It supported a maximum of 32,768 different colours because it used a 5-5-5 BGR palette.

15:06 <AVBO123> All I know is how much is cost and how good by rating.

15:07 <Cepheid> I guess if I don't allow alpha values in the sprite image data that's loaded by the game, I can reduce the colours to 3 floats..

15:07 * Filly_Nightmares purrs and curls up onto Cepheid's head

15:08 <AVBO123> what is alpha values?

15:09 <Cepheid> A value indicating how opaque something is.

15:10 <Cepheid> It ranges from 0.0 to 1.0, or 0% to 100%.  At 100%, the image is opaque.  It looks solid.  At 50%, you can see through the image to see what's behind it.

15:10 <Cepheid> At 1%, it's barely visible but still there, and so on.

15:10 <Schism> Randomly, Cepheid: http://www.weregeek.com/2015/06/05/

15:11 <Schism> 5% would be a good setting for that overlay we were discussing earlier.

15:11 <Cepheid> Heh.

15:12 <AVBO123> Is her mentality like psycho stuff?

15:12 <AVBO123> herd.

15:12 <Schism> Geeks and nerds have a sort of herd mentality.  >.>

15:13 <Schism> And a thing for spicy food.

15:13 <Cepheid> The biggest issue with palette-based sprites are editors for them.

15:14 <Cepheid> And file formats.  I need a format that ensures that the indexes into the palettes are transformed by the compression in some way.  IE:  This pixel with index 1 doesn't become a pixel with index 23 because of compression details.

15:16 <Cepheid> Also issues with technical aspects of the image itself.  32 colours implies 5 bits per pixel.  It'd require a custom encoder and decoder.

15:17 <Cepheid> Unless I opt to just save the file using one byte per pixel, and ignore values above 32(Or treat them as command values indicating transparency, etc.)

15:18 <Cepheid> In any case, some conversion will be required, since video cards these days are a pain in the butt.

15:33 <Schism> I suppose I'll hear about it sometime...

15:33 <Cepheid> Apparently in one of the levels, there's a restaurant, with a sign on it that reads "-Take Out-".  Australians complained about this and demanded it be changed to their variation of the phrase, to "-Take Away-"

15:33 <Cepheid> They argued it was offensive otherwise.

15:34 <Schism> ... I...

15:34 <Schism> That's less cringeworthy and more 'wut'.

15:34 <Cepheid> I wish I were joking, too.

15:35 <Schism> I mean, uh... I guess?  Was the level set in Australia?

15:35 <Cepheid> http://kotaku.com/blizzard-fixes-culturally-insensitive-not-really-ov-1798647754 It was so ridiculous even the "apology" from Blizzard is snarky as hell.

15:35 <Cepheid> Not as far as I know.

15:35 <Cepheid> Ah, apparently it is set in the australian outback.

15:35 <Schism> Oh, it is.

16:01 <Schism> Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but has there ever been a single case in a Final Fantasy game, ever, where a peace treaty and/or suit for war actually went off without a hitch?  FF6 doesn't count, Gestahl's dinner with the Returners was the setup for the inevitable betrayal.

16:01 <Schism> suit for peace*

16:01 <Cepheid> Not that I can recall off hand, no.

16:02 <Cepheid> Basically, as for what spitfire does.  Imagine being stretched out on the couch or chair enough that your stomach and chest becomes a nice, warm platform to rest upon.

16:02 <Schism> I have indeed had a cat lie on me in that situation.  And drool.

16:02 <Cepheid> Now, imagine a cat curled up on that chest, half of his body hanging off the side in such a way that I have to scoop him with my arm.

16:02 <Cepheid> Otherwise he slowly slides off.

16:03 <Cepheid> And then he tucks his head in just underneath my chin, and falls asleep, with a paw stretched out across my chest.

16:03 <Schism> At some point you should actually let him slide off, otherwise he's going to get the wrong idea.

16:03 <Cepheid> He already has the wrong idea.

16:03 <Cepheid> He only does this with me.  And only me.

16:03 <Cepheid> It's like he treats me like a sibling or parental figure that's protecting him.

16:03 <Schism> Well, he is your cat.

16:04 <Schism> Or you're his human, rather.

16:04 <Cepheid> This is true, but even Simba wasn't this bad.  Nor was Pepper.  And Tizzy?  She gets on top of my legs instead.

16:05 <Schism> And your elbows.

16:05 <Cepheid> I've never seen a cat snuggle with me.  And when it comes to bed time?  He basically cuddles right up against me.

16:05 <Schism> D'awwww.

16:53 <Thelema5> Heh

16:54 <Filly_Nightmares> o3o

16:55 <Cepheid> Let's see... if it's grayscale, and less than 8 bits, expand to 8-bit grayscale.  If it's indexed, and the indexes are stored in less than 8 bits(compression can do this), expand the indices to 8-bits.  If it's RGB, truncate 16-bit components to 8, expand < 8-bit components to 8.  If there's an alpha value stored, use it...  That should result in pretty much any image format with proper alightment of data.  I hope.

21:11 <Thelema5> I've enjoyed the animation style that we've seen so far

21:11 <Shamrock> Same here

21:11 <Shamrock> What's your name?

21:11 <Thelema5> But I guess we shouldn't talk about it here... no spoilers and all

21:11 <Shamrock> Right

21:12 <Shamrock> So what's your name?

21:12 <Shamrock> !seen Pinkie_Pie

21:12 <DerpyBot> Shamrock: The last time I saw Pinkie_Pie was 2017-08-31 03:56:10 UTC

21:12 * Thelema5 is my name

21:12 <Thelema5> XD

21:13 <Thelema5> My younger OC is NurseryRhyme

21:13 <Shamrock> I can see that

21:13 <Thelema5> !link Thelema5

21:13 <Thelema5> There we are, together

21:13 <Shamrock> Aww. So cute

21:13 <Thelema5> :p

21:13 <LunaticHell> So

21:13 <Shamrock> :)

21:13 <LunaticHell> lema

21:13 <LunaticHell> did you look at my twitter? o. o

21:13 <Thelema5> cHell

21:14 <Shamrock> Hello

21:14 <LunaticHell> hi Sham

21:14 <Thelema5> Briefly.  I'm at work

21:14 <Shamrock> Ah

21:14 <Thelema5> So, can't really play with my phone

21:14 <LunaticHell> Yes, don't look at my twitter when you're at work.

21:14 <Shamrock> Do you know where Pinkie went to?

21:14 <Thelema5> XD

21:14 <LunaticHell> My twitter is positively not safe for work.

21:14 <LunaticHell> Pinkie Pie?

21:14 <Thelema5> So I gathered.

21:15 <Thelema5> Oh boy, time to go home!  Let the weekend begin!

21:15 <Thelema5> Bye, everypony.

21:39 <Sombra> Well, I've been messing around with discord for the past week or so.

21:39 *** Joins: AVBO123 (AVBO123@Pony-6p6jne.range86-144.btcentralplus.com)

21:41 <Sombra> And I've come to a conclusion

21:42 <Sombra> There's way, way too many children on Discord, I don't feel it appropriate for an adult to be on there

21:44 <Princess-Luna> I think you're really overgeneralising

21:44 <Princess-Luna> and honestly, no.

21:44 *** Quits: Arkomeda (GreekOwl@Pony-rk2isf.dbhm.994f.0587.2a02.IP) (Connection closed)

21:45 <Sombra> Just from what I've seen.

21:45 <AVBO123> You just gotta pick your communities as they suit you

21:45 <Sombra> I mean... it could also be said that it'd be innappropriate for a child to be there, but they seem to be the majority, at least among the voice chatters

21:45 <Princess-Luna> Many discords are started by and contain children, but that does not mean there's any more or less of them.

21:45 <Princess-Luna> it's just a place that has become more accessible

21:45 <AVBO123> ^

21:46 <Sombra> Oh

21:46 <Sombra> I don't mean in general, I guess the servers vary, I just mean on the particular server that I was on.

21:46 <Sombra> Well... two particular servers I was on

21:46 <AVBO123> And, in general, if the chatter is like it is in here, I don't think a child in a discord room is a problem.

21:47 <Princess-Luna> you should clarify what you mean from the outset. :P

21:47 <AVBO123> Oh

21:47 <Sombra> .And by that I mean, the Equestria daily server.

21:47 <Sombra> As well as [furry]

21:47 <Princess-Luna> lol

21:47 <AVBO123> ?

21:48 <Starlight_Glimmer> Sometimes a barrier to entry isn't a bad thing

21:48 <Sombra> The later being very strange.

21:48 <Sombra> One thing that I've seen is at least the majority of the people on here (in the channels I'm in) are adults.

21:50 <AVBO123> Considering the channels you're in, that probably is true

21:51 <Sombra> How do you know what channels I'm in...

21:51 <Sombra> Are you stalking me?

21:53 <AVBO123> there is a /whois command

21:53 <AVBO123> And it tells you xD

21:53 <Sombra> Why are you whoising me?!

21:53 <Princess-Luna> because curiosity

21:53 <AVBO123> You talked about 'The channels I'm in', so I wanted to see what channels you are in as an argumentative sample or whatever.

21:54 <Princess-Luna> lol

21:54 <AVBO123> Argument's sake, in short.

21:54 <Sombra> I like being in groups of adults.

21:54 <AVBO123> I can see that.

21:54 <Princess-Luna> the moment you state something like that, sombra, it entices curious minds to look

21:54 <Sombra> I'm just kidding I don't care.

21:54 * AVBO123 does not believe that curiosity killed the cat: cats have nine lives.

21:54 <Sombra> I mean I don't care that he whoised me

21:57 <Sombra> Woops

21:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> You killed it

21:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> It's all your fault Sombra :3

22:00 <Sombra> Finally

22:00 <Sombra> I've become a real villain.

22:00 <Sombra> I need to confess something to you.

22:02 <Sombra> I didn't really like campfire tales :/

22:06 <Sombra> It just wasn't very special to me, it felt like a filler episode.

22:06 <Sombra> I liked triple threat though.
