01:57 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

01:59 <Thelema5> I'm super excited, I found a guy (through a local facebook garage sale group) who is giving away his old record collection, like 100+ vinyl records... I collect vinyl

02:00 <Thelema5> I'm waiting to hear back from him right now- as soon as he puts them out at the curb he'll let me know.  It's like a 20 minute drive from home but I'm familiar with the route- he lives over by the hotel I sometimes work at

02:00 <ADragonDreaming> awesome

02:01 <Thelema5> He says they're mostly older stuff, lounge and some rock, also kids records... I love kids records so it should be good

02:05 * Saerydoth actually can't stand vinyl

02:05 <Saerydoth> although if you have the space I could see collecting them for collecting's sake

02:05 <Saerydoth> certainly not to listen to though

02:06 <Saerydoth> I can't say I don't collect useless stuff :P

02:06 <Saerydoth> album covers and inserts can still be interesting

02:07 <Schism> Thelema5: Oooh!  o.o

02:07 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #1422 [ http://tinyurl.com/ychoahul ]

02:09 <Thelema5> Saerydoth, I like them for the nostalgia and I do actually listen to old records quite a bit at home

02:09 <Thelema5> They usually don't sound great, but I like the linear format

02:09 <Thelema5> Still haven't hear back from this guy, though

02:09 <Thelema5> *heard

02:15 <Thelema5> Oh!  Just got a text, leaving now.  Should be back in 40 minutes or so

04:31 <Thelema5> Ugh, someone at the shop I work for put an item online without filling in the cost- someone just purchased a bottle of supplements valued at $70 for $0.00\

04:31 <Thelema5> I guess I'll have to run a product audit at 12:30 AM

04:40 <RazorSharpFang> You'd think that the online system would say "Invalid, please input a price"

04:40 <RazorSharpFang> Rather than just default to free.

04:44 <Thelema5> One would think.

04:45 <Thelema5> I guess there might be times you would want to create a free item, for promos and add-ons

04:45 <RazorSharpFang> Okay, but free should not be the default EVER.

04:46 <RazorSharpFang> In fact, even if they entered 0.00 I'd STILL pop-up a confirmation window saying "You are about to list this item as free. Are you sure? (Y/N)"

04:46 <Thelema5> The good news is that my product audit only(!) turned up one other item with no price... the bad news is that I will have to explain to my boss what the heck I'm doing up a 1:00 AM on a work night

04:46 <Thelema5> RazorSharpFang, I agree- it should have a safeguard

04:49 <Thelema5> Not really, but sorta

04:49 <RazorSharpFang> Just take that, and input that into a "professionalise" algorithm. Done.

04:50 <Thelema5> Yep.  Of course, my boss is away for a weekend-long bachelor party and is probably smashed right now

04:54 * Thelema5 double checks the order... snarky jerk actually had the temerity to order TWO

04:55 <Thelema5> At least he didn't qualify for free shipping without a $50 order

10:52 <ConfusionRift> Aaaaaahhh!

10:54 <ConfusionRift> That Ryzen 5 is now pudding.

10:55 <ConfusionRift> I swear, this system is cursed.

10:56 <Cepheid> How so?

10:56 <ConfusionRift> Little things become hour endeavors.

10:58 <Cepheid> Heh.

10:59 <ConfusionRift> I could have sworn that pressed that power button, hence why I freaked out, and so I started taking things apart. I even thought it was the PSU, so I took that out. I put two others, with the same results. Suddenly, I pressed what I thought was reset, and on it went. So... yeah.

10:59 <ConfusionRift> Had to put the original PSU, reconnect everything, so on and so forth.

11:01 <ConfusionRift> Well, here was the situation. I got some new ram with pretty stupid clock speeds, and wanted to run it for a while. Taking the old ram showed what seemed to be a spark (might have been the reflection of one of the pins), which triggered this whole freakout.

11:03 <ConfusionRift> Mini ITX compact cases are a nightmare.

11:09 <Cepheid> Its also Cooler Master.  My experience with their cases is that they are hard to take care of.

11:09 <ConfusionRift> I got everything working, and the CPU doesn't run too hot either.

11:10 <Cepheid> I did a full cleaning of mine a month ago.  Removing the front panel to clean the filter on it was a nightmare.  Had to remove all bay drives, then four screws and then I could remove it for cleaning.

11:11 *** Joins: Pi (saxopi@Pony-trr.a3e.200.112.IP)

11:12 <ConfusionRift> Okay. Truth be told, this pretends you're gonna get a modular PSU with 2.5 HDDs/SSDs. You CAN put 3.5 HDDs, and you CAN use a standard cabling PSU, but man is it gonna be super inconvenient.

11:13 <Cepheid> Heh.  That is why I shall stick with mid or full tower cases.

11:15 <Cepheid> What shall I do today...?  Take another day to just be lazy and relax, perhaps?

11:16 <RazorSharpFang> Half relax, quarter lazy, and a quarter be productive.

11:17 <ConfusionRift> The PSU standard cabling WILL make itself a rats nest as you would be using about 3-4 of the 9 cables. So the rest will either be bundled blocking the front fan, or stowed on the top drive bay. You can put a drive on said bay, in front of the motherboard, or on a removable side panel.

11:18 <ConfusionRift> Thing is, you might wanna keep the drive bay for cables, and use the panel for an exhaust fan (it has a real small one for that). So the drive will be next to the board.

11:18 <Cepheid> Razor, that is a weird setup.  What do you propose I do during the productive part?

11:20 <ConfusionRift> Thing is, the drive will likely pinch on running button cables. Unless you have an SSD, which you can safely put right under the drive bay.

11:20 <RazorSharpFang> I'd suggest general maintenance. Be that cleaning { vacuuming, wiping, dusting, moping, etc }, removing un-needed items {clearing clutter, taking out garbage} or maybe gardening { trimming trees/bushes, getting rid of weeds, etc }

11:21 <Cepheid> My bedroom does need cleaning, yes.

11:21 <RazorSharpFang> Maintenance shouldn't be undervalued. It's still important.

11:23 <ConfusionRift> The angled sata power cables do not make it any easier.

11:24 <Cepheid> Yep.  Those cables are a pain.

11:25 <ConfusionRift> But after careful planning and put things in places, it all now works in harmonyyyyyyy- sorta.

11:25 <Cepheid> Sorta?

11:26 <ConfusionRift> I mean, as long as I don't have to mess with it, it works as it should and works great.

11:26 *** Joins: Iks (Deggl@Pony-1p8du0.discworld.eu)

11:27 <Cepheid> Sometimes I wonder what goes through a cats mind.  Spitfire is sitting over by the stairs just looking around everywhere.  His ears are turning and angling themselves repeatedly as he listens.

11:27 <ConfusionRift> Any changes just means taking cables out, recabling things, reconfiguring everything.

11:28 <Cepheid> I talk to Spitfire and the tip of his tail whips about.

11:28 *** Quits: Iks (Deggl@Pony-1p8du0.discworld.eu) (Connection closed)

11:29 <Cepheid> Fun note about cats.  Apparently they are not in full control of their tails.  Some of the behaviour is unconscious.

11:29 <ConfusionRift> I was actually thinking on getting a knockoff GPU for this thing. But after further research, that would be a hilariously bad idea.

11:30 <Cepheid> Yep.

11:30 <Cepheid> So what is the machine for?  Gaming?  Server?  Dev work?

11:31 <ConfusionRift> It was decided it would be for gaming and some emulation.

11:32 <ConfusionRift> Was actually thinking on moving the 1050Ti from my main PC into this one. But unsure about it.

11:34 <Cepheid> Heh.

11:36 <ConfusionRift> Since it's an AMD processor, maybe an AMD GPU would be better.

11:40 <ConfusionRift> It feels weird to play games with no input lag.

11:41 <RazorSharpFang> I'd like to get a raspberri pi myself, attach an external HD to it, and use it as a FTP/HTTP server for home use.

11:42 <ConfusionRift> And you can. You can even have it as a NAS, which was a project I was thinking about.

11:42 <Cepheid> I want an x86 SBC for server purposes, myself.

11:44 * Cepheid updates his Visual Studio 2017 license, etc.

11:45 <Cepheid> I wonder if Ninja works with Visual Studio 2017.

11:45 <ConfusionRift> I have not played around with that in a looong... time... (sighs) It's on my dying laptop.

11:46 <Cepheid> No, Google, when I type "Ninja" I don't mean the Twitch streamer.

11:46 * Cepheid changes it to "Ninja Build System"

11:46 * ConfusionRift just sees ninja workout videos.

11:46 <ConfusionRift> Interesting...

11:47 * Cepheid also grabs clang/LLVM.

11:47 <Cepheid> One of the fans in my computer has a vibration/clicking noise associated with it when it spins up.  I need to figure out which fan it is, and fix it.

11:47 <Cepheid> Given it's speeding up when the system is under load, I suspect CPU fan.

11:47 <ConfusionRift> Crud. The trickiest of the bunch.

11:48 <Cepheid> Oh that's gonna be annoying to listen to while I do dev work.  Okay, I'm gonna fix that RIGHT NOW.

11:49 <RazorSharpFang> I wonder how hard it is for a linux system to expose a network drive that windows machines will recognise and be able to use.

11:50 <Cepheid> Not that hard.

11:51 <Cepheid> Install samba, do a bit of configuration, set the samba server to start up automatically on boot, voila.

11:51 <Cepheid> Okay, since I don't know what's causing the clicking noise, time to power this system up with the case open to look around.

11:52 <ConfusionRift> How... how did they managed this? Okay, so their knockoff GTX 750ti is actually a GTX 550ti. Fine. Now, their GTX 970 is actually a... a GTS 450?!

11:53 <Cepheid> What?

11:53 * Schism blinks...!

11:53 <ConfusionRift> Yep. It was tested, and it's hilarious. Yeah, screw that.

11:54 <Cepheid> ...

11:54 <Cepheid> It's a case fan.

11:55 <ConfusionRift> Oh, good. That would be easier to deal, especially if you have those rubber holders or if it's just a loose screw.

11:55 <Cepheid> It's probably a screw, but I can't be sure.

11:55 <Cepheid> Good gods, just how loud IS that fan?

11:55 <Cepheid> I unplugged it to confirm, and the noise my system makes dropped by a lot.

11:57 <ConfusionRift> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ved84d_6occ

11:57 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

11:57 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Fake GTX 960 graphics card eBay scam

11:58 <Cepheid> Not surprised.

11:59 <Cepheid> Meanwhile yeah, it's the chassis fan in the back.  For whatever reason since I've cleaned it, it's making a horrible racket.  I hope the bearings aren't gone on it.

11:59 <Cepheid> Simple solution?  Take it out, put it back in.

12:00 <ConfusionRift> There is a chance that some dirt actually got in the bearings.

12:01 * Pi yawns

12:01 <Pi> pons

12:01 * ConfusionRift patpats Pi.

12:02 * Pi noserubs ConfusionRift

12:03 <Cepheid> Could also be the screw hole that's apparently been stripped from overscrewing.

12:04 <Cepheid> Hmm, sounds like it was just a seating issue.  I removed it, put it back in, and the click I can hear by putting my ear up to it is gone.

12:04 <Cepheid> Yeah, it's gone now.

12:05 * ConfusionRift clicks. :P

12:05 <Cepheid> The only sound I hear is the jet turbine sound it makes as it speeds up when the system is under load.

12:07 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Fluttershy Day Discussion - Episode Ideas, Character Development and More! [ http://tinyurl.com/yar6kjuj ]

12:09 <Cepheid> Much better.

12:10 <Cepheid> Still though, I am amazed at how loud that fan gets.

12:10 * Schism yawns. Also, gahs. "I have a lot of crafting job quests to complete." He also noddles to Cepheid. "Next step: getting a cover for the power button."

12:10 <Cepheid> I can do something else that's a bit easier to handle.  Doesn't disable the button completely because BIOS stuffs, but..

12:12 * Cepheid disables power button function in OS.

12:12 <Cepheid> It'll still power down if I hold the button for 5+ seconds, but that doesn't happen a lot with the cats.

12:21 <RazorSharpFang> I want to try a vanilla Factorio and grab the Steam-only achievement for some reason.

12:25 <Cepheid> Aside from not supporting /permissive-, which is useless to me, I managed to get clang to work with visual studio 2017.  I can now use C++17 if I want.

12:26 <RazorSharpFang> C++18 when?

12:27 <Cepheid> None.  The next version is C++20, I believe.

12:27 <Cepheid> Currently labeled C++2A.

12:28 <RazorSharpFang> 2A?

12:29 <Cepheid> It implies that it'll be sometime in the 2020-2030 range.

12:30 <FruitNibbler> > that moment when you press the lightswitch and wonder why there is even more light in the room...

12:31 <Cepheid> XD

12:31 <FruitNibbler> Sun does not obey my switch!

12:31 <Cepheid> But yeah, Microsoft is notorious for not keeping up with standards.

12:31 <Cepheid> I think they're still working on C++11 stuff, in fact.  Meanwhile, GCC and clang/LLVM have supported up to C++17 for some time now.

13:24 <RazorSharpFang> Oh wait there's a small patch of 700. Mmm.

13:31 <Cepheid> Let's see, got zlib, got libpng, got glew.  Just need boost.  At some point I'm going to want to remove the boost library dependency.  Good library for complicated stuff, but seems excessive for a game.

13:33 <RazorSharpFang> I can't say I'm familiar with it.

13:33 <Cepheid> It's a collection of libraries, both binary and source, that provide useful features.  Filesystem, for example, provides a cross-platform method of determining if a file exists, or getting a list of files from a directory, etc.

13:35 <Cepheid> Only problem with it, is that it's massive.

13:35 <RazorSharpFang> A bloated library?

13:36 <Cepheid> Bloated in that it's massive, but not in that it includes everything during linking with an application.

13:36 <Cepheid> It's time-consuming to install.

13:40 <RazorSharpFang> Anyway I'm off for a run, cyas in a bit.

18:37 <Schism> Very useful.

18:37 <Schism> (Those who are thinking that poison is as useless as it is in Final Fantasy games: You couldn't be more wrong.  It's deadly in Etrian Odyssey.)

18:39 <Cepheid> No kidding.  First off, it actually kills.  No "Stop damage at 1 HP." stuff.  Secondly, it doesn't deal small percentage-based damage.  It deals direct damage.  Lower levels it's around 40 damage/turn.  Upper levels, it can reach 650/turn.  Your team will never have more than that in HP, usually.

18:42 <Cepheid> And that's that.  All of the first stratum that I can access(Two locked doors), all mapped out.

18:42 <Cepheid> Just the boss left.

18:47 <Cepheid> Now then, if I remember correctly, the boss starts off with explode, then breaks into smaller pieces that I have to kill in order to keep it from completely reassembling.

19:10 * Cepheid looks over the edge of the Jagged Reach stratum. Hell of a fall. Also, this tree's roots go on forever, it seems.

19:13 <Cepheid> Least it's an "easy" stratum in a sense.  Relatively benign compared to stratum 3 or 4, and the boss is pretty straightforward, last I recall.

19:13 <Schism> So you'll be letting your guard down, is what you're saying.

19:24 * Schism produces a stupid amount of brass ingots. Mostly HQ, because if he's going to do this for an achievement, he might as well make cash off it.

19:25 <Cepheid> I am reckless as all hell, it seems.  In one trip, I made the entire loop around to the first shortcut.

19:30 <Cepheid> Oh, Schism.  Xenoblade 2 added another Xenosaga character as a Blade.

19:30 <Schism> Oh?

19:30 <Cepheid> T-elos

19:30 <Cepheid> So now both KOS-MOS and T-elos are in the game.

19:32 <Schism> Ah, the dark to KOS-MOS' light.  I'd ask what's with the Mary Magdalene fixation, but then I remember that Xeno* is all about the Biblical references.

19:34 <Cepheid> The Xenoblade series less so than Xenogears or Xenosaga.  Those two are somewhat distinct from the Blade series as they focus around those weird monoliths.

19:35 <Cepheid> If anything, if I understand the other Xeno games right, the Xenoblade series is more akin to "What would happen if the Bad Guys won in the other games."

19:55 <Cepheid> ... Oh.  This floor.

19:55 <Cepheid> I remember this floor.  It stands out for one reason.

19:55 <Cepheid> Well, two.  First, it's the 7th floor.  Secondly, the 7th floor always has a superboss on it.

19:56 <Cepheid> Or was that the 8th floor?  Either way, the second stratum always has a superboss sitting in it.

19:58 <Cepheid> Etrian Odyssey 1, it was the Wyvern.  Etrian Odyssey 2, I can't recall it's name off hand.  But it lived on the 7th floor.  Etrian Odyssey 3, I don't think had one blocking a path as it was the start of Atlus deviating from the norms.  Same with Etrian Odyssey 4.  Then Untold 1 came out, which is a remake of EO1.  Then Untold 2, same deal.

20:27 <Cepheid> !link https://youtu.be/VeLld65dFkc This song is not in it.

20:27 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

20:27 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Etrian Odyssey - Music: Scatter About

20:28 <Schism> Golem~

20:28 <Cepheid> Heh.  That's the first time anyone really encounters the song, admittedly.  Golem.

20:29 <Cepheid> Instead of Scatter About, they brought this song in from Etrian Odyssey 3:

20:29 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

20:29 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about End Of Raging Waves (Arrange Ver.) - Etrian Odyssey V OST

21:17 <Cepheid> So in a fit of cruelty Schism, there is a quest that opens up at the 8th floor to find some silk thread from the caterpillars on the second floor(Toxipedes, FOEs).  No big deal.  You see one at the entrance, and follow it, again, no big deal.

21:17 <Cepheid> Until you catch up to it.  Suddenly, you're surrounded by four of them.  You have to face them all at the same time.  Four FOEs.

21:36 <Schism> Yeeee.

21:37 <Cepheid> Eh.  I mopped the floor with their carcasses.

21:39 <Cepheid> Anyways, time to outsmart a giant, four-tusked elephant that can murder me by breathing in my general direction.

21:53 <Schism> And now, Halicarnassus.

21:55 <Cepheid> Hmm? Isn't that one of the evils that was sealed away in FF5's void?

22:01 <Cepheid> Man, I am glad Atlus is kind enough to do even *THAT*.  There are FOEs that seek you out.  So far as I can tell, in all rooms they exist in, the encounter rate plummets to near-0.

22:41 <Cepheid> New Challenger.  Induces a sequence of 1-N battles in a row, right where you're standing.

22:43 <Cepheid> And each battle has an- ...  Are you kidding me?  Anyways, it has an increased chance of rare breeds.  As for what just shocked me, I encountered a group of three enemies.  All of them are rare breeds.  Rare breeds give off 5x EXP.

22:46 <Cepheid> ... How many attacks does this skill cause!?  This is the seventh battle so far!

22:47 <Cepheid> Apparently a maximum of seven times.  SCHISM!  HEAL!

22:48 <Cepheid> Hmm.  Says 3-10 encounters in the description.  o3o
