00:34 <PinkieShy> Just pulled a mean joke on my dog xD

00:35 <PinkieShy> She thought she was gonna get a slice of pizza.. But i changed that bowl for one with dry dog food and she walked up to it thinking it was pizza and saw it was dry food and look at me for that..

00:36 <Finwe> I think that dry dog food is better for dogs than pizza.

00:36 <Finwe> Not that they know this.

00:37 <Finwe> They'd probably rather stick to pizza.

00:37 <Schism> Of course, because it's Human Food.

00:43 <PinkieShy> I'm about to switch my dogs to a better brand next month of dog food

00:44 <PinkieShy> I've been buying them Pedigree but switching them to either Blue.. or Purina One.

00:44 <PinkieShy> Where meat is the first ingredient instead of corn..

00:45 * DashedRainbows is too sadistic...

00:45 <DashedRainbows> And heartless

00:49 <DataByte> I try to avoid corn, because every dog I've had would have joint problems while on corn-based food (older dogs)

01:38 <Cherry_Bomb> ?

01:39 <Cepheid> An earlier topic that has since passed.

01:39 <Cherry_Bomb> then why bring it up again?

01:39 <Cepheid> Felt like it.

01:40 <Schism> Cepheid: What?  >.>  It does look cute!

01:40 <Cepheid> It'll drive people insane.

01:40 <Schism> How went the exam?

01:40 <Cherry_Bomb> i'm not gonna ask

01:41 <Schism> Cherry_Bomb, it's an anime about an Average High School Student getting involved with Nyarla-san.

01:41 <Cepheid> Boring.  The hardest question was a case of "Here is something you should never do in the real world ever.  What is the output?"

01:42 <Cepheid> It was hard because... I would never do it in the real world.  I have no idea what would happen.  I've never done it.  Because no one ever should.

01:54 <PinkieShy> Its very tasty

02:31 <Ali> I say he took that game worse than I am Bread Schism

02:31 <Cepheid> I'll be dead honest, Markiplier strikes me as appealing to a fanbase that expects him to do that kind of stuff.

02:32 <Cepheid> Especially since he can afford the damage.

02:33 <Schism> True!

02:33 <Schism> Hey, can't deny, I look forward to such shenanigans, so.

02:34 <Vulpor> Sonic Mania is amazing

02:34 <Vulpor> As well as South Park Stick of Truth

02:36 <Vulpor> I am also in the market for a good anime for 2017

02:36 <Vulpor> Ali have you seen anything this year that stands out

02:37 <Ali> Nope, only anime I watch is Dragonball Super

02:37 <Cepheid> Truth told, If I were to stop taking my medication, and forcefully play games, I could probably get similar reactions to Markiplier and other such people, with one major difference between me and them.

02:37 <Cepheid> My reactions would be genuine.

02:37 <Vulpor> Ahhhhok

02:54 <Ali> Well..they were!

02:55 <Cepheid> XD

02:55 <Cepheid> My cats are...

02:56 <Cepheid> Spitfire's finding the best time to pounce Tizzy.  Tizzy's smacking Spitfire.

02:56 <Ali> Sounds like kitten antics but yours are cats

02:58 <Cepheid> More Spitfire wants to play, Tizzy's having none of it.

02:59 <Cepheid> I really should start drawing characters from my dreams.  Or at least start writing down descriptions of them.

02:59 <Schism> Should find a paper bag for Tizzy.  That'll definitely stop Spitfire from pouncing on her.

02:59 <Cepheid> Though I'm starting to notice a recurring pattern with all my dreams.

03:00 <Ali> Cepheid, what does a kitten mewling or meow and then rub into you hand or lay down on you?

03:01 <Ali> Cause Tia is being very talkative

03:01 <Cepheid> Sounds like she's demanding attention.

03:03 *** Joins: Pi (saxopi@Pony-ikd.fdm.158.175.IP)

03:03 <Cepheid> Cats also just sometimes get talkative, but for the most part, meowing, brushing up against your hand or climbing onto you is basically the cat going "Pay attention to me" or "Protect me" or "I'm gonna make you my bed."

03:03 <Ali> I mean she's mewing all over the place, even when I'm petting her.

03:03 * Filly_Nightmares meows at Ali

03:04 <Cepheid> I can only tell you that it's nothing serious.

03:04 <Ali> i'm not worried, just curios to what's going on

03:06 <Cepheid> If she's just trying to sleep on you or get you to pet her and stuff, it's likely just she's, in her own way, telling you she's happy to be around you.  I can't really say, but that's what it sounds like.

03:06 <Cepheid> Cats also just.. meow a lot at times for no reason.

03:06 <Cepheid> Spitfire and Tizzy will, on occasion, just head downstairs and start mewling or meowing.

03:06 <Cepheid> I go to check out what's up, and all I'll find is a cat sitting at the bottom of the stairs.

03:07 * Filly_Nightmares goes o3o

03:07 <Ali> Cepheid, Tia is laying on me and content now.

03:08 <Cepheid> Heh.  How's Luna?

03:09 <Ali> ok, snoozing on the scratching box right now

03:10 <Cepheid> Yep, they're getting comfortable with the environment now.

03:10 <Cepheid> They trust you, and they're finding their spots to sleep and rule from.

03:10 <Ali> they snoozed awhile on my lap as well

03:11 <Cepheid> That means they both own your lap.

03:11 <Saerydoth> there is no need to ever buy cat toys

03:12 <Saerydoth> toilet seat box = better than any cat toy

03:12 <PinkieShy> Its so cold.. :/

03:12 <PinkieShy> and its 75f in the house.. :/

03:12 <PinkieShy> I'm like freezing over here :(

03:12 <Ali> Paper bag chinese food came in, worth more to kittens than any toy.

03:12 <Saerydoth> yeah it's like the cold radiates in from outside even if the inside temp is fine

03:13 <Cepheid> There's a few cat toys that are worthwhile Saerydoth.

03:13 <Saerydoth> yeah

03:13 <Saerydoth> I know, I was being funny

03:13 <Ali> I'm just happy these kittens have adapted and feel safe here.

03:13 <Cepheid> Usually, small foil balls and stuffed mice.  Provided they're small enough for the cat to pick up, they'll throw 'em around, hunt 'em, and maybe even fetch them if you toss them.

03:14 <Ali> I had 3 catnip fish around here

03:14 <Ali> Now I can't find any of them.

03:21 <Saerydoth> yay kitten

03:21 * Ali sads, that what her first cat was

03:21 <Saerydoth> the funny thing is, they usually start out white

03:22 <Ali> Big old fluffball

03:22 <Saerydoth> and their ears and face darken over a period of about 2 months

03:22 <Saerydoth> I've seen kitten vs adult pictures of siamese where people are like, no that's not the same cat

03:22 <Saerydoth> and people are like yes it is

03:22 <Cepheid> My dad's first cat was a siamese as well, chocolate point.  Very expensive.

03:23 * Filly_Nightmares floofs and kneads Saerydoth's face

03:23 <Cepheid> His grandfather paid like, $400 for it.  Unfortunately the cat was extremely nervous and shy, refused to come out, and his grandfather didn't want to put up with such behaviour.

03:23 <Cepheid> So said grandfather handed it off to my dad for free.

03:25 <Cepheid> Never got to see it, myself, but I did see a picture or two of it.

03:26 <Cepheid> It's amazing what kittens look like at birth.

03:26 <Cepheid> Don't even remotely look cat-like, aside from the face.

03:27 <Saerydoth> they usually look like this when they are born

04:44 * DashedRainbows chews on Thelema5

04:44 <Thelema5> I know of two New York bagel shops in my region which have better bagels than anything one might find in the city.  People drive 45 minutes to get their bagels if necessary. http://sunrisebageldeli.berlindoener.info/ (website is incomplete and has ads) is my personal favorite, well worth the 30 minute drive.  I go at least once a month, and pass at least a dozen other bagel shops on the way

04:45 <Schism> Site opens a pop-up ad, then tells me to turn off my adblocker?  Hahaha no.

04:45 <DashedRainbows> Bagels yum

04:46 <Thelema5> This is probably the second best bagel in New York http://www.monticellobagelbakery.com/ I sometimes drive 45 minutes just to get their sesame bagels.

04:46 <Thelema5> And I HATE driving distances

04:46 <Schism> I look at the page, and my eyes hit those neon green bagels...

04:47 <Schism> Still, looks pretty awesome.

04:47 <Thelema5> They ship!

04:47 <Thelema5> XD

04:47 <DashedRainbows> I'm still rather down, Thelema5, could go for a bagel tomorrow though

04:47 <Thelema5> I can't imagine a shipped bagel would be worth it, though.  They start to lose their texture after a couple of hours

04:47 <Schism> That giant bagel sandwich... XD

04:49 * Thelema5 hugs DashedRainbows

04:49 <DashedRainbows> Too bad I never go out this don't know any good bagel spots here

04:50 <DashedRainbows> Maybe donuts instead and such

04:50 <Thelema5> I daresay there are no good bagel shops in all of texas.

04:50 <Thelema5> I may be wrong.

04:51 <Thelema5> I daresay that Texas out barbeques the entire northeast, though

04:51 <DashedRainbows> Why would you say such things?

04:52 <DashedRainbows> You can find a lot of stuff here

04:53 <Thelema5> I'm just biased.  New York is pretty well known as the bagel capital of the world, and we can be very protective of that

04:54 *** Joins: Pinmane (Pinmane@Pony-t9u.g04.197.81.IP)

04:54 <Thelema5> For instance, this is one of the top rated bagel shops in dallas: https://www.yelp.com/biz/bennys-bagels-lakewood-dallas

04:54 <DashedRainbows> I imagine a bagel maker has had to move here

04:54 <Thelema5> You'll notice in the reviews everyone uses New York as a benchmark

04:55 <Thelema5> It's not the maker, it's the water.

04:56 <Thelema5> Or so the myth says https://spoonuniversity.com/lifestyle/the-secret-behind-why-new-york-bagels-are-so-good

04:57 <DashedRainbows> It seems every review is looking for an emulation of a NY bagel, I just like bagels...

04:57 <Thelema5> Then you'd love ours.  XD

04:58 <DashedRainbows> But the price is going up north :p

04:58 <DashedRainbows> Especially right now

04:58 <DashedRainbows> Snow...

04:59 <Thelema5> Yeah, not worth it.

04:59 <Thelema5> Even the taxes are outrageous

04:59 <DashedRainbows> I'll stick with my smoked brisket...

05:00 <DashedRainbows> And the rodeos

05:00 <Thelema5> First we ride the bulls, then we slow roast them

05:01 <DashedRainbows> Exactly, now say yeehaw and you get a ten gallon hat

05:02 <Schism> I shall be happy with my summer sausage, pierogi, and butter tarts.

05:02 <Thelema5> I've never heard of a butter tart, but I must say I'm intrigued

05:03 <DashedRainbows> I heard butter

05:04 <DashedRainbows> Strange how my heart is actually okay despite my love of butter and lard and bacon grease

05:05 <Thelema5> The latest research suggests that saturated fats and cholesteral from dietary sources has much less of an impact on cardiovascular health than previously believed

05:06 <DashedRainbows> Apparently

05:06 <Schism> Thelema5: Actually, butter tarts are pretty much death for me.  XD;

05:07 <DashedRainbows> There is one thing that worries me

05:08 <DashedRainbows> I had a dip in platelet levels and need to see my oncologist and it worries me

05:08 <Thelema5> I'm looking at recipes now, Schism.  This is something I need in my life

05:08 <DashedRainbows> I can't deal with that again

05:08 <Schism> Thelema5: It is particularly good with raisins.  o3o

05:08 <Schism> DashedRainbows, eugh.  Better to get it over with, though.

05:09 <DashedRainbows> I know, I'm so scared right now

05:09 <DashedRainbows> And freaked out

17:03 <Librarian> i has a question

17:04 <Librarian> is it a good idea to buy a domain and a site?

17:04 <Librarian> to start making a name for myself

17:08 <Thelema5> I guess that depends on what your goals are

17:09 <Thelema5> And if you have a funnel in place to pay for it

17:10 <Thelema5> In other words, you'll need to find a way to drive people to your site, and a way for them to pay you for visiting

17:11 <Thelema5> Otherwise you'll just be losing money on a site no one sees

17:12 <Thelema5> Also you need to have enough digital assets to make the site engaging.  Content.

17:13 <Thelema5> Ask yourself, how will people find my site?  Why would they stay?  What does my site offer them, and is it valuable enough to pay for hosting it?

17:15 <Tempest-Shadow> All of that, yeah

17:15 <Thelema5> That could be a sample chapter of your writing with a link to buy the book, etc

17:17 <Thelema5> You'll also have to spend a good amount of time just promoting the site, doing the hand-to-hand fighting

17:18 <Thelema5> Posting links in forums, engaging people one-on-one, cross posting other content links pointing to it, etc

17:19 <Thelema5> It'll also help to engage social influencers to talk about your site and your work

17:20 <Thelema5> Without extending your reach the site would just be a vanity site, ie. there for you to look at.

19:06 * Thelema5 just got back inside from shoveling snow

19:06 <Thelema5> I really hate snow

19:06 <Cepheid> So, normal gameplay of Rimworld.

19:06 <Ali> Also signs you're a kitten owner.  You have scratches all over your body

19:06 <Thelema5> scritch scritch

19:06 <Ali> Cepheid, have you played Rimworld before?

19:07 <Ali> More like playfighting and you're the battlefield

19:07 <Cepheid> I have played Rimworld, yes.  Not to completion, though.

19:08 <Ali> You can never play Rimworld to 'completion'

19:08 <Ali> You'll usually die in some stupid manner first

19:10 <Cepheid> Heh, it is possible to "win" the game, just it requires a lot of luck.

19:11 <Ali> Tell me about it

19:11 <Ali> I swear a tree is better cover than sandbags are X.x

19:13 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Spanish Equestria Girls Animation - Las Dazzlings Alternas [ http://tinyurl.com/yd697cbd ]

19:13 <Cepheid> The people most likely to "win" rimworld are those who have played Dwarf Fortress

19:16 * Ali nods and snuffles Cepheid

19:17 * Lumin snuffles Ceph as well

19:17 * Cepheid wonders what snuffling is.

19:20 <Ali> I'm playing the tribal start in a Tropical Swamp Cepheid

19:20 <Ali> Just now got electricity X.x

19:21 <Cepheid> Heh.

19:22 <Ali> Tribal starts are super slow to tech up

19:22 <Ali> And with gun turrets locked a lot further off in the tree, its hard to defend

19:22 <Ali> But the swamp gives tons of wood at the cost of limited building area till you can get moisture pumps.

19:30 <Cepheid> The responses of people on Twitter regarding the Net Neutrality repeal shows two key important details.  1)  People in the US care about their Internet service and freedom, and 2)  That a lot of people seem to think the US is the only country in the world.

19:32 <Lumin> wait so what was the result on that net neutrality thing?

19:32 <Cepheid> Repealed.

19:32 <Cepheid> 3-2 in favour.

19:32 <Cepheid> An unfortunate, but expected result given everything else going on in the US.

19:32 <Lumin> so what does that mean?

19:33 <Cepheid> Basically that internet service providers have much greater control over how your Internet service works

19:33 <Lumin> wel shit

19:33 <Cepheid> Legal throttling of services, ability to charge for access to services, etc.

19:33 <Lumin> RIP

19:33 <Cepheid> It's effects only apply to the US, though, as the FCC doesn't have regulatory control over the rest of the world.

19:34 <Lumin> <--- *lives in the US*

19:35 <Ali> Good old corporate murica

19:35 <Cepheid> As it is, there is still an ongoing fight.

19:35 <Ali> the dollar before the people

19:35 <Cepheid> Congress and other organizations can override the ruling.

19:35 <Lumin> I hope to celestia that they do

19:36 <Lumin> Apparently their thought was "If we keep trying to pass this bill it'll eventually go through"

19:36 <Cepheid> It was a foregone conclusion that Net Neutrality would be repealed, though, given who runs the FCC>

20:11 <Double> because corruption

20:11 <Cepheid> I'm actually getting aggravated with the whole "US Net Neutrality is over, the worled is doomed." stuff.

20:12 <Cepheid> The CRTC in Canada voted back in April, the CRTC being the Canadian of the FCC, to retain Net Neutrality.

20:12 <DashedRainbows> I just need a transplant and I can flee the country

20:12 <Tempest-Shadow> you're going to have to shrug it off, everyone is losing their minds over it

20:12 <Cepheid> I know.

20:12 <Cepheid> I haven't taken my medications, to be honest, so I'm a little moody as well.

20:12 <PinkieShy> okay.

20:12 <Librarian> imma need to get more into social media

20:12 <Tempest-Shadow> you are

20:12 <PinkieShy> Cepheid and Librarian if Verizon slows my data or messes with the prepaid customers so much.. I'll be switching to att or t-mobile.

20:13 <Cepheid> I just... find it aggravating that people in the US seem to think that anything that happens to them, happens to the rest of the world.  As if they legitimately run the world.

20:13 <Tempest-Shadow> Because the rest of the world does sometimes copy them

20:13 <Tempest-Shadow> it's not unheard of

20:13 <Tempest-Shadow> UK does so much of the time, actually

20:13 <Cepheid> And yet, nowadays, countries are hesitant to follow suit on a lot of stuff they are doing right now.

20:13 <Cepheid> Even the closest countries to them are hesitant to even be involved with the US.

20:13 <Librarian> thta i can vouch for on my side

20:13 <Cepheid> Same with Canada.

20:14 <DashedRainbows> I think moving to Mexico would be ok

20:14 <Librarian> goverment is just a lackey for the us, however the most powerfull interent provider is wayyy more powerfull than them

20:14 <Librarian> our goiverment is a joke

20:14 <Librarian> not even a good one

20:14 <DashedRainbows> Agreed

20:15 <Cepheid> I dunno, Mexico is pretty much on the same side as Canada regarding stuff like NAFTA.

20:15 <Librarian> pardon the ignorance, whats that?

20:15 <Cepheid> Basically, we aren't agreeing to the US' terms because the terms would greatly benefit the US in such a way as to be detrimental to Mexico and Canada.

20:15 <Cepheid> North American Free Trade Agreement.

20:15 <Librarian> ohh

20:15 <Librarian> i now it as TLC

20:16 <Cepheid> A set of rules and regulations regarding free trade between Mexico, the US and Canada.

20:16 <Cepheid> However, talks have regularly stalled because neither Canada nor Mexico want to agree to the terms the US sets forth.

20:22 <Librarian> the jersualem thing?

20:22 <Tempest-Shadow> no clue

20:22 <Thelema5> Also not technically illegal, at least not based on what we currently know

20:22 <Tempest-Shadow> there's nothing tenable for impeachment

20:22 <Librarian> gotcha

20:22 <DashedRainbows> Thelema5: just CBD meh

20:22 <Librarian> moving right along

20:22 <Cepheid> There have actually been put forward articles of impeachment for violations of the constitution.

20:23 <Librarian> tempest, im going to london owo

20:23 <Librarian> gimme them pro tips

20:23 <Cepheid> The problem is getting the political parties to agree to impeach.  The republicans, regardless of how much they hate Trump, can't go along with it because then they'd be seen as traitors to the party.

20:24 <Thelema5> There are some republicans who are openly hostile to his agenda

20:24 <Cepheid> When I said "the republicans" I meant the people of the party, so yes, there are people who are openly hostile to his agenda.

20:24 <Cepheid> But that doesn't change much unless the party votes to do something about it.

20:25 <DashedRainbows> Achoo

20:25 <Librarian> salud

20:25 <Thelema5> I honestly think Trump is far too inept to really effect much change in reality.  He is all noise and rhetoric, his generals have even declared that they would defy any illegal orders he gives

20:25 <Cepheid> As for why I'm discussing the topic, I'm mostly under the impression that the rule against political talk is being relaxed due to the FCC ruling.  At least, that's what Tempest-Shadow's contributions to the topic are implying anyways. :P

20:26 <Thelema5> It's only a matter of time before his party collapses in on itself

20:26 <Cepheid> Thelema5, laws can be changed so that things that ere declared illegal, are no longer illegal.  And all it takes is money in the right place, enough ignorance, and a bit of paperwork.

20:27 <Cepheid> Once that happens, if anyone in the military argues that somthing requested was illegal, when it no longer is, they can be held accountable and replaced.

20:32 <Thelema5> Even dropping out of the paris accord is ineffective because it won't happen during his presidency

20:32 <Schism> Not that the Paris Accord did anything major besides a handshake agreement between nations that they agree to put some focus on reducing pollution.

20:33 <Schism> Being the only person in the world NOT to shake hands there is like declaring yourself the enemy of Captain Planet.

20:33 <Thelema5> Well he /is/ an enemy of the planet

20:34 <Cepheid> He may not be dropping out, but he's really not working with any of the countries.  It may as well be the same thing.  There's also the repeal of numerous laws that the Obama administration has implemented.  Violation of human rights, which constantly get ignored or repealed anyways, but still, repealling of laws to limit greenhouse emissions, etc, etc, etc.

20:34 <Cepheid> And as you stated, alienation of every country of the world ever.

20:35 <Schism> In more amusing news, Disney has now acquired 21st Century Fox.  They decided to leave FOX News out of the purchase, though.

20:35 <Cepheid> For sensible reasons.

20:35 <Schism> A big part of this might be that 21st Century Fox still had rights to several Marvel characters.

20:38 <Cepheid> My head hurts.  o3o

20:40 <Schism> The question, of course: what does this mean for Seth MacFarlane and Matt Groening?

20:40 <Thelema5> One would hope that they will continue The Orville, as I've been enjoying it very very much

20:40 * Schism offers Cepheid a cup of spicy chai.

20:41 <Thelema5> They've been green-lit for a second season, but that can alway change

20:41 <Thelema5> *always

20:41 <Cepheid> Okay, Spitfire, yer beginning to piss me off.

20:41 <Schism> Thelema5, considering Disney, I'd say this makes it much more likely that The Orville will be continued.  However, it's of note that Disney and Netflix are kind of at odds.

20:42 <Cepheid> I don't know why, but I am extremely irritable today.

20:43 <DashedRainbows> It happens

20:43 * PinkieShy screams in pain

20:43 <PinkieShy> this coughing is making my sore throat sure like alot more :(

20:44 <Cepheid> PinkieShy, buckley's cough syrup, if you can find it

20:44 <DashedRainbows> Get some DXM

20:45 <PinkieShy> I have no ride to the store..

20:45 <PinkieShy> only have Nyquil and maybe if the cold still is here tomorrow :/ i should just ask my dad for a ride to the store and pickup some dayquil..

20:45 <Cepheid> Huh.  Elite Dangerous has taken an interesting twist.

20:45 <Cepheid> Thargoids are attacking and destroying stations, now.

20:45 <Cepheid> How long before player stations to replace them, I wonder.

20:46 <Cepheid> PinkieShy, take the nyquil, get some sleep.  If you're sick, you should be in bed, getting rest.

20:46 <Cepheid> Not on a computer.

20:47 <PinkieShy> cepheid but if i get sleep now i won't sleep none tonight :/

20:48 <Cepheid> Do you have anywhere to be tomorrow or in the coming days?

20:48 <PinkieShy> well i got dogs i need to take care of.

20:48 <PinkieShy> I'm the only one home :/

20:49 <Cepheid> You can take the dogs out, come home, go to sleep, wake up later, take the dogs out, go home, go to sleep

20:49 <Cepheid> If you have nothing critical other than taking care of the pets to do, get some bloody sleep.

20:50 * Thelema5 goes to take a bath

20:50 <Cepheid> Because, put simply..

20:50 *** Thelema5 is now known as Thelema5|away

20:50 <Cepheid> The sooner you rest, the sooner you'll be feeling better.

20:50 <Cepheid> The less you rest, and the more stuff you do between rests, the longer it'll last.  And the effects are pretty magnifying.

20:51 <Cepheid> I got sick with the flu a while back.  I was confined to bed for a week.  I started feeling fine at the end of the week.  I moved around and started to do a few things?  Confined to bed for another week.

20:52 <Cepheid> All I did was a few hours of chores, too.

20:54 <Schism> ... "Can’t believe John McClane is a Disney princess now. This is like the greatest day of my life."

21:20 <Schism> Seriously, Firefox?  Hardware acceleration doing this?

21:21 <Cepheid> I see Apple has unveiled it's new overpriced computer.

21:21 <Schism> £12,279!  What is this, 1991?

21:21 <Cepheid> More or less.

21:22 <Cepheid> It uses a Vega 56 or 64, a Xeon with 8, 10, 14 or 18-core processor, has 32, 64 or 128GB of RAM, a 1TB, 2 TB or 4TB SSD drive.

21:23 <Cepheid> It's a high-end computer with an unreasonable price.  I could build something of similar power for cheaper.

21:23 <Schism> Yeah, I think we could all find a way to build something similar for a lot cheaper.

21:23 <Schism> Mind, $5,000 is still a pretty high budget, but yeah.

21:24 <Cepheid> And that's for the low-end.

21:24 <Cepheid> Let's see..

21:24 <Schism> Cripes.  Maybe not.  Those Vega64 cards are $1,200 a pop.

21:25 <Schism> Minimum.

21:25 <Cepheid> And they're no more powerful than the GTX 1080 or GTX 1080 TI.

21:25 <Cepheid> And given that they advertise the number of compute pipelines, I'm of the impression that the Vega 56 and 64 are not gaming GPUs.

21:25 *** Quits: Thelema5|away (Thelema5@is.a.curious.pone) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

21:26 <Schism> "But options include up to 18-core processors, where most machines are either dual or quad-core" EXCUSE me, Guardian?

21:26 <Cepheid> Most computers are legitimately 2 or 4-core at the moment.

21:26 <Cepheid> We've only just started breaching into 6 or higher.

21:26 <Schism> Yes, but not if you're going to be doing high-end graphical work.

21:27 <Schism> Or even gaming.  8-core 3.5Ghz's not that expensive...

21:27 <Cepheid> I agree.

21:27 <Cepheid> Truth told, beyond 4 cores right now is still overkill for gaming.

21:27 <Cepheid> Developers are still having a pain with proper multicore/multithreaded processing.

21:28 <Cepheid> But yeah, the Vega 56 and 64 appear to be Compute GPUs, rather than gaming GPUs.  Gaming performance is on par with the GTX 1080, while compute performance in some areas exceeds the GTX 1080.

21:28 <Cepheid> They're better used for CAD.

21:28 <Cepheid> Or artificial intelligence/deep learning

21:29 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, 32 GB is overkill in most modern configurations.  Even in video editing and CAD.

21:30 <Cepheid> These new computers of Apple are better used for business, autocad and other stuff.  Gaming is certainly better than their previous offerings, but the cost isn't justified.

21:30 *** Quits: Librarian (Librarian@Pony-47v.j7i.207.187.IP) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

21:30 <Schism> That does make more sense, yeah.  And foisting a lot of the processing power off onto the GPUs - ideally that would be two of them at that price...

21:31 <Schism> Apple has made a point of being more of a high-end professional computer.  Contrast when they put out all-in-one boxen which looked like fruit.

21:32 <Cepheid> The thing that bothers me most about the whole setup is that people can, and will buy them for word processing.

21:32 <Cepheid> And they'll pay $13,000 for the full-spec setup.

21:33 <Schism> Yeah, I can see that.  Or pay out the nose for something like that for sound editing.

21:33 <Cepheid> Gotta have them apples, the status associated with 'em.

21:34 * Schism turns off hardware acceleration in Firefox, all his issues are suddenly resolved. "For the love of Finagle."

21:35 <Cepheid> Are you using nVidia, Intel or AMD for video card?

21:35 <Schism> Or maybe not.  And it's an nVidia.

21:37 * Schism updates graphics drivers anyway, it's not a bad idea.

21:37 <Cepheid> My IRC client opens it up whenever I click on links, regardless of what I do to fool Hexchat.

21:37 <Cepheid> And my experience with Firefox has been "It's frozen."

21:39 <Cepheid> Ye know, given all the videos of bugs I see from PUBG, I still don't grasp how that game is popular.

21:40 <Schism> That "It's frozen" bit is where I'm having issues.  For whatever reason it seems to freeze - constantly.

21:42 <Cepheid> Yeah, sounds about right.

21:49 <Schism> Ooh.

21:50 <Schism> https://www.scribd.com/document/367101474/Crytek-v-CIG

21:51 <Schism> In short, the switch from CryEngine to Lumberyard was construed as a straight breach of contract.

21:57 <PinkieShy> I keep eating stuff very high in protein.

21:57 <PinkieShy> somebody told me protein helps when your sick

21:57 <Schism> It does to a point, yes...

21:58 * Schism provides PinkieShy with some peanut butter... on CELERY! *muahahahaha*

21:58 <PinkieShy> I can't stand vegetables

21:58 <Cepheid> Schism: For boosted performance, force OpenGL in Factorio.  Game functions better in OpenGL, mysteriously.

21:58 <Schism> PinkieShy: Um.  Might be a good idea to eat some carrot bread, then.  It's made for kids who won't eat their vegetables, and it's full of healthy juices!

21:58 <PinkieShy> I can stand V8 perfectly fine but eating celery or similar.. uhh.. its puke time for me :/

21:59 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'd run a 0.16 server, but I'd need to write a script to check the experimental version through steamcmd, then issue warnings to players on the server.

21:59 <Schism> Mmm.

21:59 <Schism> V8 is good.  Particularly with a little worchestershire sauce, a bit of celery salt added to it, some black pepper, some clam juice, and some vodka.  Oh, and insanity sauce or tobasco as preferred, and some horseradish juice.

22:00 <Cepheid> Though at this point, creating a script or tool to poke the server with RCON commands is straightforward.

22:02 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, getting the info from steam to determine version is *ALSO* straightforward.

22:03 <Cepheid> It's straight-up JSON.  And to get the data, just pipe info in from an exec-  Ah sh-, I just realized I made a stupid mistake on my exam last night.

22:03 <Cepheid> Oh well.

22:04 <Schism> Eh, it was the one you said you had to be blackout drunk to fail, anyway.

22:04 <Cepheid> Hum, what exactly is being sent over the network to get this information.  Do I really *HAVE* to use the steam client?

22:04 <Cepheid> Truth told, the other hard problem is that it's at friggen 7 PM in the evening.

22:04 <Cepheid> People aren't gonna be alert at that time.

22:06 <Schism> I almost suspect that's intentional.

22:07 <Cepheid> Bleh, Valve encrypts the commands to their service.

22:08 <Cepheid> Oh, wait.

22:10 * Cepheid murmurs.

22:10 <Schism> I forget, how does one fork the install so one has both stable and unstable builds again?

22:12 <Schism> Oh, nevermind.  That's convenient, I can just install the most stable version and move it elsewhere.

22:18 <PinkieShy> over cooked the pizza tonight :3

22:18 <PinkieShy> it added a crunch to the crust :D

22:18 <Schism> PinkieShy, that helps!

22:19 <Schism> Cepheid: Steam or no Steam, it appears to be DRM-free, so you can download every version from factorio.com...

22:19 <Schism> You have to sign in with Steam, but the executable installers are right there.

22:20 <Cepheid> The issue isn't downloading.

23:00 <Cepheid> Simplest approach is best.

23:00 <Cepheid> Create pipe, fork, exec with proper parameters, pipe JSON data back to parent.

23:01 <Cepheid> Process JSON data, extract version data from it, compare against installed server version.

23:01 <Cepheid> If version retrieved is higher than server version, notify users on server, shut down server after N minutes, update server, restart.

23:03 <Cepheid> My guess is, steamcmd uses the Steamworks API, but has a special API key that allows it to access any data it desires.

23:13 <Cepheid> Or a private protocol that's not accessible through conventional means.
