00:00 <Chaosweaver> Umm. Yeah. I know what a netsplit is, thanks.

00:01 <Chaosweaver> I used to own an IRC network back in 2003-2005.

00:05 <Snapai> They aren't NEARLY as tasty as a banana split, unfortunately.

00:30 <Colgate> Starlight_Glimmer: technically there was a split, since discord was linked through derpy to cadance :P

00:31 <Starlight_Glimmer> Heh I didn't see that, but did mention the possibility

00:31 <Starlight_Glimmer> Disconnected too early

00:32 <Starlight_Glimmer> Also since when is Discord linked over Derpy ? Wouldn't it make more sense the other way around?

00:33 *** Quits: Thelema5 (Thelema5@is.a.curious.pone) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

00:35 <Starlight_Glimmer> I assume they are on the same physical machine, so it doesn't really matter, but if not you'd basically require both ipv4 and 6 to operate on the same machine for the link to be stable.

00:36 <Starlight_Glimmer> Whatever I need sleep :)

00:49 <Colgate> Starlight_Glimmer: they are on different physical boxes

00:50 <Colgate> Discord and derpy are usually directly linked, since both eu, makes more sense that way

00:50 <Colgate> Instead of making the packets cross the Atlantic twice

00:55 *** Joins: Pi (saxopi@Pony-sqn.1la.200.112.IP)

00:55 <Starlight_Glimmer> The Atlantic wouldn't care :P But yeah. I was thinking redundancy. This way if one dies both go down. Since these are the EU servers as you mentioned you'd disconnect a lot of users with a single failure. Kinda surprised automatic failover between two links isn't a thing.

00:56 <Starlight_Glimmer> IRC isn't aging all that well  

00:57 <Snapai> There's always RocketChat I guess?

00:57 <Snapai> I don't know if that uses multiple servers or not tho

00:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> My employer uses it

00:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> And it sucks

00:58 <Snapai> I want something with rocketchat's independence and highlights-in-the-scrollbar, Telegram's stickers, and Discord's overall ease of use and interface.

00:58 <Snapai> (and voice and video chats)

00:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> Sl

00:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> Ups

00:59 <Snapai> Slups?

00:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> Touch typing is painful... Anyway what I wanted to say is Slack us quite nice IMHO

01:00 <Snapai> Every slack chat I've been in has gone down in flames.

01:00 <Starlight_Glimmer> However centralized etc etc

01:00 <Snapai> Also corporate-hosted, centralized, pay for features that others do for free, etc.

01:01 <Snapai> Well it doesn't matter because US internet's gonna turn back into a pumpkin in december when the FCC ignores the people and removes net neutrality. x.x

01:32 <Ali> Geekshit wasn't known for being nice

01:32 <Tempest-Shadow> so you want them destroyed because they kicked you out?

01:32 <Chaosweaver> FX series is garbage. :D

01:33 <PinkieShy> Tempest-Shadow yes and no..

01:34 <PinkieShy> I want them destroyed for how they treated me.. :/

01:34 <PinkieShy> or talked to me or whatever

01:34 <PinkieShy> Kinda seems like they made fun of me for talking about the same stuff over and over..

01:34 <PinkieShy> I can't help that..

01:34 <PinkieShy> I once went 3 months talking about the same thing everyday until my dad pointed it out.

01:35 <Tempest-Shadow> Yeah, that might wear some out

03:01 <Schism> Good to see that Night in the Woods is represented.

03:01 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Nintendo is gonna sweep the awards and Cuphead will get a couple...

03:02 <Schism> I'll be rather disappointed, to say the least, if Mario + Rabbids wins out over XCOM 2.

03:03 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Its the same gameplay basically.

03:03 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Still, PUBG over Nier?

03:03 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Come on!

03:04 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Nier Automata was total GOTY for me.

03:44 <DashedRainbows> I wish but too lazy to apply

03:44 <Thelema5> Go visit librarian

03:45 <Thelema5> Hmm, my enter key isn't working right

03:45 <DashedRainbows> I will in a few months

03:45 <DashedRainbows> I'm not kidding

03:46 <Thelema5> I don't doubt it.

03:46 <DashedRainbows> I will probably go there

03:46 <DashedRainbows> The question is will I stop by

03:47 <DashedRainbows> My dad coerces me to go every year

03:47 <Thelema5> I would go if I could

03:47 <DashedRainbows> Tries to anyway

03:48 <Thelema5> Curious... I submitted ny resume for a job and they called me back about 30 seconds later.  Not really for an interview, but to tell me that 96 other people have also applied, and they they'd be sending me a screening email.  Whaaaa?

03:48 <DashedRainbows> Being disabled and broke in Mexico City is not fun

03:48 <Thelema5> One would imagine

03:48 <DashedRainbows> Heck, anywhere really

03:50 <DashedRainbows> But visiting a friend is one good aspect

03:50 <DashedRainbows> And I still have some fun

03:56 <Thelema5> I wonder if this job will work out... it's a social media / digital marketing position with a small community based pharmacy and wellness center... I doubt they really have a need for someone to work on their brand full time

03:57 <Thelema5> Unless they're doing a lot of online sales / hope to do a lot of online sales

03:57 <DashedRainbows> Hmm, probably not

03:58 <Thelema5> They posted it as part time to full time

03:58 <Thelema5> It is in the center of hippie central, the tiny town of Woodstock NY

03:59 <Thelema5> So they're probably kooked out on drugs

03:59 *** Joins: KooK (KooK@Pony-t2bvrf.client.mchsi.com)

03:59 <Thelema5> Coincidence or not?

04:00 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i get a new phone Friday

04:01 <Thelema5> Nice!

04:02 <DashedRainbows> Getting drugs is hard

04:02 <DashedRainbows> For me anyway

04:02 <Thelema5> If I get that job I'll have access to a whole pharmacy XD

04:03 <DashedRainbows> Mail me some of the good stuff

04:03 <DashedRainbows> I'll take Xanax and ketamine

04:03 <Thelema5> Ketamine makes me think of the moldy peaches

04:04 <Thelema5> One of their singers was famously a etamine addict

04:04 <DashedRainbows> Good

04:05 <DashedRainbows> Drugs are bad okay kids

04:05 <PinkieShy> DashedRainbows and thelema5 its a good thing i don't drink..

04:05 *** Quits: BlackSentinel (BlackSentin@behind.you) (Connection closed)

04:06 <PinkieShy> If i drank i'd probably be drunk right now..

04:06 <PinkieShy> Never tried beer wine or anything like that ever.

04:06 <DashedRainbows> I'm so close to legal esketamine

04:06 * Thelema5 is drinking, predictably

04:06 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, probably best to avoid it

04:06 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 i might go overboard with it if i did :P

04:07 <PinkieShy> Remember what i did with caffeine... oh dear..

04:07 <DashedRainbows> I just avoid it now

04:07 <DashedRainbows> The cravings get so intense if I drink

04:08 <Thelema5> Kimya Dawson, the OTHER singer from the Moldy Peaches had this to say about drinking:

04:08 <DashedRainbows> As it stands alcohol is the only legal depressant

04:08 <Thelema5> !link https://youtu.be/-HWVtnPaWDg

04:09 <Thelema5> Warning there may be some foul language

04:09 <PinkieShy> Maybe Pinkie's brew is alcohol drink flavored to be like cotton candy

04:09 <Thelema5> She's one of my favorite people ever

04:10 <DashedRainbows> Alcohol is *yay*in amazing and dangerous too

04:10 * Ali boops DashedRainbows for lame hiding attmept

04:11 * DashedRainbows is a bad pone

04:11 * Thelema5 drinks too much for real

04:11 <PinkieShy> So is it true what i read?

04:12 <PinkieShy> Equestria Girls is going to get its own series tv show?

04:12 <Thelema5> I guess?  I heard web shorts

04:12 <DashedRainbows> No Ingram :(

04:12 <Thelema5> But I'm probably behind the times

04:12 <Ali> With the web shorts Ingram is not on it.

04:12 <PinkieShy> i read it here https://www.equestriadaily.com/2017/08/hasbro-investor-webcast-contains-tons.html

04:13 <PinkieShy> at the far right it says Series.

04:14 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 that has me worried  a bit tho XD

04:15 <Thelema5> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNumMmweYBU

04:15 <PinkieShy> What if after season 8 they say MLP Friendship is magic is coming to a series finale and Equestria Girls series replaces it with sedum pony world visits

04:16 <Thelema5> I doubt that will happen

04:16 <Tempest-Shadow> Thats, well...unlikely

04:16 <Tempest-Shadow> they're keen on keeping the seperation - crossovers, maybe, but never full blown replacement

04:16 <Thelema5> Pony toys sell

04:17 <DashedRainbows> Plus, well, ponies

04:17 <Tempest-Shadow> there's a few web shorts of EG out now

04:17 <DashedRainbows> They're pretty cool too

04:17 <Thelema5> I've not seen them

04:18 <DashedRainbows> I've seen the first three

04:18 <Tempest-Shadow> There's about 10 or so

04:18 <Tempest-Shadow> they sorta...blurted out a few

04:18 <DashedRainbows> Cool

04:19 <Ali> LEAKS EVERYWHERE!!!!!!

04:20 * Ali puts Tempest-Shadow in a ship and sails away from the leaks!~

04:20 * PinkieShy hands Ali FLEX Tape

04:20 * Tempest-Shadow ships with Ali. ;3

04:20 <Thelema5> O.o

04:20 <Tempest-Shadow> xD

04:21 <DashedRainbows> I gotta sleep, will likely be on early tomorrow too, but bye

04:21 <Thelema5> G'night!

04:21 <DashedRainbows> See you all Sunday

04:22 <Thelema5> I'll be on tonight until I pass out and then again when I regain consciousness

04:33 <Thelema5> Oooohkaaaay.... my mind is now officially blown.  Just found a middle school friend on facebook that used to be super chill but who is now somehow a competitive weightlifter O.o https://www.facebook.com/CristyRose825/videos/10154990683473848/

04:33 <Thelema5> What the everloving heck?  She's my age and I can barely get out of bed in the morning

04:34 <Tempest-Shadow> We're all different - don't try to judge your own living situation and compare it with others

04:34 <Tempest-Shadow> you know full well there's a behind the scenes to it

04:35 <Thelema5> I guess.  But I used to sneak out of my parents house to go play D&D at her place after hours....

04:36 <Thelema5> And I feel old and useless, while she is still living a vital life

04:42 <Thelema5> Oh great, I just received notice from youtube that HASBRO has claimed copyright of a couple of MLP songs I covered like 3 years ago

09:40 <Tirek> It was alright, but with a lack of stuff to put on, in it, it was basically just an egg.

09:41 <ConfusionRift> Gladiolus: Better than diving on several very lengthy and boringly written books.

10:13 <ConfusionRift> That suuuucks.

10:14 <Tirek> Yeah. I had a notepad++ file of all the valid syllables for root words, and used that tick on the side to check off which I've used already.

10:14 <Tirek> So, I just had to go back through my list, and try and fit the list back to the already used syllables.

10:15 <Tirek> Along the way, I added new ones that fit the word better, so I have a table of 65 root words, and not all of them are filled out yet.

15:49 <Cepheid> It'd have to be white in colour, and to avoid damage to the flooring and walls, I'd have to use white tape to hold it down.

15:49 <Schism> There are means and means.  For example, we use those sorts of temporary hooks which don't damage the drywall.

18:10 <Thelema5> This my be the stocking-stuffingest thing ever https://i.imgur.com/NsOrD8b.gifv

18:10 <Cepheid> Playing games relies on a number of cues.  Visual are the most common, but auditory adds to it.

18:10 <Cepheid> Thelema5:  Heh.

18:11 <Thelema5> Crappy design strikes again

18:14 <Cepheid> Huh.  Hey Schism, interesting bit of information.  You know how PC games have configuration settings for graphics, etc?

18:14 <Schism> Yes?

18:15 <Cepheid> Apparently, Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope on the PS4 has a graphics configuration menu.

18:15 <Cepheid> With all the same settings you'd see on the PC.

18:16 <Schism> Huh, nice.  I wonder, though - it's a lot easier to optimize things for a system's hardware, so I wonder why.

18:16 <ADragonDreaming> "Yo-ja"

18:16 <Cepheid> For people who prefer visual fidelity over performance, presumably.

18:17 <Cepheid> You got people who don't mind 30 FPS, while running at the highest settings.  Then there are the people who demand 60 or 120 FPS at lower settings.

18:17 <Cepheid> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DP0vMNWUMAA4j_q.jpg Oh sweet geezus.

18:18 <Filly_Nightmares> I always push my laptop to play at max graphics with 60 FPS at least

18:18 <Filly_Nightmares> o5o

18:18 <Cepheid> o3o

18:18 <Cepheid> Laptop + 60 FPS = Wat.

18:19 <Filly_Nightmares> Yas

18:19 <ADragonDreaming> very hefty specs

18:19 <Filly_Nightmares> I run Rainbow Six Siege with the ultra HD pack at 60 FPS 1080p

18:19 <Filly_Nightmares> o5o

18:19 <Cepheid> You're either bull*YAY* me, or you've got one of those super-expensive monsters of a laptop that break down at the slightest bit of a breeze.

18:19 <Schism> Characters suddenly became gyroids.

18:20 <Cepheid> Schism:  I never really played Animal Crossing all that much.

18:20 <Filly_Nightmares> I have benchmarks too. o5o

18:20 * Schism mms.

18:20 <Cepheid> Oh, I believe you in that case.

18:20 <Cepheid> But I don't trust the reliability of such hardware in laptop form.

18:21 <Filly_Nightmares> o7o

18:21 <Cepheid> My dad especially hates the XPS systems equipped like that.

18:21 <Cepheid> They're a pain in the butt to take apart and repair, and they break down a LOT.

18:21 <Filly_Nightmares> I'm able to run every game I own on Steam with max graphics at 60 FPS. Even games like Prey. o5o

18:21 <Filly_Nightmares> And Doom 2016!

18:21 <Cepheid> My PC struggles.  Which implies there's a bottleneck then, because I'm using a GTX 970 myself.

18:22 <Cepheid> Combined with a GTX 570 for PhysX where possible.

18:22 <Cepheid> Most likely the bottleneck is the 7-year-old CPU, motherboard and RAM.

18:22 <Cepheid> Even with overclocking, it's not able to keep up.

18:22 <Filly_Nightmares> I just has a i7-4710HQ, GTX 970M and 24 gigabytes of 1600 DDR3 RAM

18:22 <Filly_Nightmares> Aw

18:24 <Schism> 12 here.  CPU's a nice AMD FX-8320, tho.

18:24 <Cepheid> I actually wouldn't mind a 6th or 7th gen in a laptop form, even if it's just integrated graphics.

18:24 <Filly_Nightmares> I overclocked mine to 3.6 from 3.5

18:24 <Cepheid> I could probably overclock mine at this point.

18:24 <Cepheid> Temperature has dropped enough that the system is complaining to me when I do a cold boot.

18:25 <Cepheid> The CPU fan starts up way too slow for the BIOS's liking.

18:25 <Filly_Nightmares> I wanted a Ryzen 1700 and GTX 1070 but I decided to wait for Ryzen 2 and Volta

18:25 <Filly_Nightmares> My system hovers around 75 C when under heavy load

18:25 <Cepheid> BIOS expects it to run at a minimum of 600 RPM.  From a cold boot right now, the CPU fan starts at 500 RPM.

18:25 <Filly_Nightmares> My laptop has dual fans and copper heatsinks

18:25 <Cepheid> So the BIOS whines, saying there's a CPU fan error.

18:25 * Filly_Nightmares noms Cepheid's fans

18:26 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Schism

18:26 <Cepheid> Mind you, I know it's okay.  If I reboot the PC afterwards, the BIOS stops complaining

18:26 <Cepheid> It's just because it's so cold in my room that the CPU fan just starts off really slow.

18:26 <Filly_Nightmares> My cousin's FX-8350 is a bit worse than my i7

18:27 <Schism> Filly_Nightmares, it's still a good processor tho.

18:27 <Cepheid> I don't know what would be a good upgrade, for myself.

18:27 <Filly_Nightmares> I told him that it wasn't a true 16 core CPU

18:27 <Cepheid> I just know it'll have to wait a year.

18:27 <Filly_Nightmares> 2 cores assigned to one FPU

18:27 <Cepheid> Well, half a year.

18:27 * Filly_Nightmares noms Schism

18:27 * Filly_Nightmares sits on Cepheid

18:28 <Filly_Nightmares> I kinda want an i7-8000K series for my desktop since it outperforms the 1700

18:28 * Filly_Nightmares fee

18:28 * Filly_Nightmares feeds Schism floof

18:29 <Cepheid> I'm indifferent to whether it's AMD or Intel.  Though my experiences have shown that AMD tends to be more responsive to multithreaded/multiprocessing loads.

18:29 <Cepheid> But yeah, I'll have to wait, because I need to do co-op first and get some money.

18:29 <Filly_Nightmares> I just want the best performance for content creation and video games. o4o

18:30 <Cepheid> Video games, here.

18:30 <Schism> Only issue I have with AMD is that when playing Tree of Savior, it causes the character's head to go all Exorcist.

18:30 <Filly_Nightmares> And Bitcoin hit 11K and dropped to 9.5K USD

18:30 <Filly_Nightmares> I think I might stick to NVIDIA for GPUs

18:30 <Cepheid> Schism:  That sounds more like a graphics issue than CPU issue.

18:30 <Cepheid> Admittedly, nVidia and Intel are winning out on the graphics front.  AMD for whatever reason can't implement proper graphics driver stacks.

18:30 <Schism> It's actually the game screwing up in telling the video card which way the character's facing.

18:31 <Schism> Or something like that.

18:31 <Filly_Nightmares> AMD hasn't really put out anything that'll convince me to get their stuff. The Vega cards aren't really a killer

18:31 <Cepheid> Someone at AMD keeps telling it's lower people to skimp or cut corners on D3D and OpenGL implementations.

18:31 <Filly_Nightmares> Plus I like CUDA acceleration for Adobe stuff like Premiere

18:31 <Cepheid> nVidia at least has reasonable implementations, same with Intel.

18:32 <Cepheid> Intel, you might not have the full implementation, but at least what's there is generally implemented correctly.

18:32 <Cepheid> And if it isn't, it'll be fixed as open source drivers for Linux, etc.

18:32 <Cepheid> nVidia, closed-source proprietary, but they have decent implementations of D3D and OpenGL that don't crash or have glitches everywhere.  Vulkan support is up there, too.

18:33 <Cepheid> AMD is half-and-half.  Some open source, some closed source.  The closed source stuff is what is most important, and AMD can't be bothered to implement OpenGL, D3D or Vulkan properly, even under Windows.

18:33 * Schism boops CleverDerpy with a plate of spaghetti and wheatballs!

18:33 <Cepheid> I would rather nVidia or Intel IGP for graphics on a laptop.

18:35 <Cepheid> I don't recall.

18:35 <CleverDerpy> I really need to do 2 things with my desktop, update my gpu and migrate to a ssd

18:36 <Filly_Nightmares> I only use my SSD for games

18:36 <Filly_Nightmares> Probably not gonna put Windows on an SSD

18:36 <Cepheid> Until such that it is shown that AMD wants to put effort into OpenGL, D3D and Vulkan properly.

18:37 <Filly_Nightmares> Eee

18:37 <CleverDerpy> the problem with ssds in the space

18:37 <Filly_Nightmares> Yas

18:37 <CleverDerpy> cuz they're pretty much vastly superior in every other front to HDD

18:38 <CleverDerpy> no moving parts, quieter, faster,

18:38 <Cepheid> I have a 250GB SSD myself.

18:38 <Cepheid> I use platter drives for everything but the OS, a few core games, and core applications I use.

18:38 <Filly_Nightmares> The biggest game I have is probably Arma 3 on it with mods

18:38 <Filly_Nightmares> And the DLC

18:38 <Cepheid> The Witcher 3.

18:38 <CleverDerpy> how can you cross over drives?

18:39 <Cepheid> Hmm?  Cross over?

18:39 <CleverDerpy> I mean, if you have 2, how can you retrieve then info from 1 or the other effectively

18:39 <Filly_Nightmares> Like those...

18:39 <Filly_Nightmares> Uh...

18:39 <CleverDerpy> the OS is one one

18:39 <CleverDerpy> and your desired info is on the other

18:39 <Cepheid> That's a common scenario.

18:39 <CleverDerpy> I was never able to get dual drives working, despite having the slots and capacities

18:40 <CleverDerpy> on my desktop, not able to work, on my laptop when I had one, worked fine

18:41 <Cepheid> You install the OS on the primary drive.  Windows should handle the boot configuration stuff automatically these days.

18:41 <Cepheid> Then you just install applications onto the secondary drive instead of the primary drive.

18:41 <Cepheid> You still have to partition the secondary drive, of course.

18:48 <Cepheid> If there's anything that's good about 4k resolutions and such..

18:48 <Cepheid> It's that they are slowly killing the need for AA.

18:49 <Cepheid> I got a 40" 4K TV, and what games I *CAN* run on it at 4K with the video card I have, they look beautiful with or without AA.

18:50 <Cepheid> Which is mostly older generation games.  The one exception to that would be Factorio.

18:53 *** Quits: foxy (foxy@Pony-bo6faf.ga.comcast.net) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

18:53 <Cepheid> But seriously, as graphics cards get better at running 4k, and now, 8k, AA will become a thing of the past.

18:54 <Cepheid> The density of pixels is so great that it's harder and harder to see the benefit of it.

18:54 <Cepheid> Which is kind of good, as the conventional method of AA is slow, and uses up a lot of GPU memory.

18:55 <Filly_Nightmares> Rainbow Six Siege did something cool with AA

18:55 <Filly_Nightmares> It like ran the game at half resolution and did some AA or something. o8o

18:56 <Cepheid> Yeah, there are more modern approaches that work much faster.

18:56 <Cepheid> I think that one there is FXAA, that or TXAA.  I can't recall.

18:56 * Finwe snuggles a CleverDerpy and a Cepheid.

18:56 <Cepheid> The conventional method involves rendering the image N times, with a jitter value applied to the view.

18:57 <Cepheid> And then blending all the images together.

18:57 <Cepheid> This means that there are N framebuffers the same size as the display framebuffer.  Hence the increased memory usage and performance hit.

18:58 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Finwe

18:58 * Finwe ruffles Filly_Nightmares.

19:01 <Filly_Nightmares> Also Chrome takes up like almost 2 gigabytes of RAM for some reason

19:01 <Cepheid> Because it creates multiple processes, and caches a lot of information.

19:01 <Cepheid> Plus there's apparently a feature that pre-downloads connected links, etc.

19:03 <Filly_Nightmares> I only have like 6 tabs open

19:03 <Filly_Nightmares> And an extension that'll compress all of that into a Webpage with links to them and another that'll suspend the tabs after 30 minutes.

19:04 <Cepheid> Suspending a tab doesn't reduce the amount of memory it uses, unless suspending it unloads the website and backbuffers for it.

19:04 <Filly_Nightmares> Yas

19:04 <Filly_Nightmares> I have to reload the tab for the website to do regular stuff

19:05 <Cepheid> In that case, I've not a clue.  I know that all the backbuffers that Chrome allocates for a website will take up RAM, and with websites that have infinite scrolling, that'll cause chrome to take up more and more memory over time..

19:33 <Cepheid> You know, one thing confuses me when people compare Japanese-made games and Western-made games.

19:33 <Librarian> my dogs are surprinsly smart

19:33 <Librarian> or at least i think they are, most be becuase i wub them

19:34 <Cepheid> Why do people get confused when they see large-breasted women or sexy female characters in Japanese games?  Last I checked, Western-made games feature the SAME DANG THING.  So why the confusion/complaints?

19:34 <Librarian> i can explain

19:34 <Librarian> its the age

19:35 <Cepheid> I disagree with that.  Western art has the same problem.

19:35 <Librarian> sexy women in japanese games tend to be young

19:35 <Librarian> as in teen young

19:35 <Librarian> i cant thing of a concrete example, please exemplify

19:35 <Cepheid> I'm familiar with this issue, yes. But the problem exists even in Western cases.

19:36 <Librarian> true, however its more predominant in otaku culture

19:36 <Librarian> its not that big an issue in western culture

19:36 <Cepheid> Still, the confusion is confounding.

19:37 <Librarian> its a matter of taste and morals

19:37 <Cepheid> But I will admit that a majority of the women in Western artwork, for comics and the like, look like they're in their twenties.

19:37 <Librarian> i fopr example dont like oversexualizaed women in my media

19:37 <ADragonHoarding> Librarian: Cepheid's complaint is the double-standard

19:38 <ADragonHoarding> why complain about it in Japanese games but not in Western games?

19:38 <Cepheid> Pretty much.

19:38 <ADragonHoarding> Why throw flak at the JRPG but not WoW?

19:38 <Cepheid> You see oversexualization even in Western games.  The age thing is a valid argument, but it's not enough I think.

19:38 <ADragonHoarding> and let me tell you WoW is just as if not more guilty

19:38 * Schism offers, oh... ADragonHoarding the last of the bowl of cookie dough.

19:38 * ADragonHoarding devours

19:39 <Cepheid> Because you'll have cases where even in JRPGs and such, the age is more appropriate, but people still complain.

19:39 <Librarian> i also thing its the way we view japanese media and standards

19:39 <Cepheid> While there are cultural differences between the two, I admit, there are a lot of shared things.

19:39 <ADragonHoarding> I did recently find out why the sprites in Baldur's Gate II were so very busty for the female models

19:39 <Cepheid> Which is probably why I don't see the problem.

19:39 * Schism sets up a figurine of a dancing Godbert Manderville.

19:39 <Cepheid> Sex appeal sells.

19:39 <ADragonHoarding> Actually, no.

19:40 <ADragonHoarding> That wasn't the primary

19:40 <Librarian> i dont have a problem per se, i dont mind sex appeal in moderation

19:40 <Librarian> elegant or cute appeals to me, blatant nsfw doesnt

19:40 <Cepheid> Same.

19:40 <ADragonHoarding> Less exaggerated sprites were rather difficult to distinguish male vs. female

19:40 <Librarian> let me tell you a story

19:40 <ADragonHoarding> due to the size and viewpoint of the game in question

19:41 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

19:41 <Cepheid> The handling of sex appeal though is tricky.

19:41 <Librarian> first time i went to japan i had the fortune to go to akihabara, i stumbled into a place were they were selling nsfw items

19:41 <Cepheid> Because if you increase it, men and women will complain.  But if you decrease it, men and women will complain.

19:42 <Cepheid> Librarian:  Ah, yes.  Well, their views on sexuality, I admit, are a lot different from the Western world.

19:42 <Librarian> the shher atmosphere of shame of the line of customers was overwhelming

19:42 <Cepheid> Trust me, unless they were visitors to the country, the amount of shame they were feeling was negligible.

19:42 <Librarian> i decided form them on not to end like that, i would create something to fit my tastes in that area

19:43 <Librarian> i actually have pondered this quite a lot, my Phonica even complains in my writings about it

19:43 *** Quits: foxy (foxy@Pony-bo6faf.ga.comcast.net) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

19:43 <Cepheid> There are people who will complain about it in Japan, yes.

19:44 <Cepheid> The issue is that overall, people can't decide if it is to be a taboo topic or not.

19:44 <Librarian> it shoulndt be

19:44 <Cepheid> There are arguments from all sides.  Scientific, religious, cultural, moral, etc..

19:44 <Librarian> taboo is bad, let each person decide themselves

19:44 <Cepheid> I'm indifferent to it, myself.

19:44 <Cepheid> So long as no one is being taken advantage of or hurt in the process.

19:44 <Librarian> i dont aproove but i dont impose my view

19:45 <Librarian> exactly, fredoom as long as no one gets hurt

19:45 <ADragonHoarding> thing is that it's possible to argue that oversexualization in the media is actually harmful.

19:45 <Librarian> that it is

19:45 <Librarian> for example the japanese idiol phenomenon

19:45 <Cepheid> It's also arguable that undersexualization is bad.

19:45 <ADragonHoarding> So, it's not exactly something that can be left up to the individual

19:45 <Librarian> tis a hard debate yes

19:45 <Cepheid> Either direction implies that something about the form of the people is "bad".

19:46 <Librarian> a middle point in all things

19:46 <Librarian> balnce is good

19:46 <Cepheid> And like I said, both sides will complain regardless of the direction it goes.

19:46 <Cepheid> I know a number of women who complain when games are censored for their oversexualization.

19:46 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I also know women who complain when a game is oversexualized.

19:46 <Cepheid> Same goes for men as well.

19:49 <Cepheid> And it ranges from the "small, petite" to the "large, well-endowed"

19:49 * Cepheid shrugs.

19:49 <Cepheid> Given where it's coming from, it doesn't surprise me.

19:49 <Cepheid> The artists who did the blade designs came from working on Xenosaga.

19:53 <Cepheid> Like there are designs that aren't sexualized at all, while there are others that are.

21:37 <Librarian> i was considering wicca for study on magic

21:37 <Librarian> but i realized that people want none scary magic

21:37 <Librarian> like the unicorn magic, it works becuase its nice4

21:37 <Librarian> no need for overcomlication

21:38 <Librarian> im going to study once and future king, to get pointers on merlin and his magic

21:39 <Schism> And remember to watch the Holy Grail again, to get an accurate rendition of Le Morte d'Arthur.

21:43 <CleverDerpy> i just watched the book of life

21:43 <Schism> Also, non-scary magic doesn't really bode well if you're looking at Merlin, because of Morgan la Fay.

21:44 <CleverDerpy> it was pretty good

21:44 <Thelema5> It's probably best to just stick with elemental magic if you want non-scary

21:45 <Thelema5> Which is basically the same system used in wicca but without any of the trappings of religion
