04:56 <RazorSharpFang> Today, I tested if vacuum cleaner pickup is flammable. It is, but the flame is short-lived, producing a stinky (really bad) char that doesn't burn at the temps I tested it at. I rate 2/10 for fuel potential
04:57 <Schism> Try blowing the particulate matter through a flame, instead of trying to burn the collected detritus.
04:57 <Thelema5> I imagine it would have smelled awful, RazorSharpFang
04:57 <Thelema5> Lots of hair and dead skin cells
04:57 <Schism> (It'd still stink like nothing else, though.)
04:58 <Thelema5> I use dryer lint rolled with candle wax as fire-starters
04:58 <Thelema5> Works pretty well
04:59 <RazorSharpFang> Dryer lint is probably a different composure.
04:59 * Schism makes paper out of dryer lint. o3o
05:00 <RazorSharpFang> My thoughts was that hair and skin cells are organic, so they'd burn right? Well, they do but not nicely or well.
05:00 <RazorSharpFang> Next up, I'll try burning lard via a candle.

05:39 <Finwe> Basically, if it is money you're going to need, it's better to invest in low-risk instruments, while in case of complete surplus more volatile alternatives can be considered.
05:40 <Thelema5> Finwe, I have some significant (to me) assets which are going to be stagnating until I retire, so I want to make suer they don't love value over time.

05:46 <Thelema5> I am investment illiterate- a year ago I was living paycheck to paycheck. Now I have a bunch of "surplus" money I don't really need at the moment because I'm still working...
05:47 <Thelema5> Maybe I can use the opportunity to stop working jobs I hate and instead do something fun, like selling antiques
05:47 <Thelema5> Maybe I can set up an ebay shop and just buy out amazon returns and resell them... something like that
05:48 * Finwe hugs a Thelema5.

05:49 <Thelema5> I'm super tired of working for other people, even though my current boss is super cool

05:52 <Thelema5> Maybe I'l just go back to working the kind of job I get the most satisfaction from- simple, tangible, hands-on work like picking orders in a warehouse
05:52 <Thelema5> Doesn't pay a lot, but damn it's satisfying
05:57 <ConfusionRift> Hmm, SAGE showcase? Well, I know what's I'm gonna be doing.
06:00 <Finwe> Parsley, SAGE, rosemary and thyme.
06:00 * Finwe tells ConfusionRift to make him a cambric shirt.
06:02 <Thelema5> Finwe, isn't that a song from the 60's?
06:03 <Finwe> Thelema5: No, it's a 15th century English folk song.
06:03 <Schism> Of course, most people are only familiar with the Simon and Garfunkel cover.
06:03 <Thelema5> Heh. It's also a song from the 60's https://youtu.be/Og7JS8mcp3c
06:03 <Finwe> Or 16th century.

06:07 <Finwe> The earliest acknowledged version of The Elfin Knight is from around 1650, and as it bears some resemblance to Scarborough Fair, we have to assume that both are at least that old.

07:14 <Cepheid> Morning.
07:16 <Schism> Heyo.
07:17 <RazorSharpFang> I've almost finished lazy bastard run in Factorio vanilla
07:17 <Cepheid> Probably only up for a short bit. I wake up to eat then fall back to sleep.
07:17 <Schism> Hmm. At one point, production of ammonium nitrate would result in a gigantic clump of the stuff, a big rock, basically, which would in turn have to be broken up. Pickaxes wouldn't set the stuff off, but neither would it be sufficient for reducing the product to a reasonable granularity.
07:18 <Schism> Cepheid! Confronted with the above situation, what would you do to break apart the ammonium nitrate?
07:18 <RazorSharpFang> Eat it
07:19 <Schism> Would you: A. Attempt to figure out a mechanical solution such as a mill; B. adjust the refining process to ensure that granularity is fine from the start, or C. use dynamite to send shockwaves through the material, reducing it to dust?
07:20 <RazorSharpFang> C sounds like a pretty sound idea
07:20 <Schism> Bear in mind, of course, that ammonium nitrate is just the teensiest bit explosive as well.
07:20 <RazorSharpFang> More explosions is always better

07:38 <Cepheid> 30 grams isn't all that much Schism. Probably about five or six cups of coffee?
07:39 <Schism> You're missing a few zeroes there.
07:39 <Schism> The caffeine in a cup of coffee is, on average, 94 MILLIgrams.
07:40 <Schism> By all means, ingest 31 cups of coffee at once and see what that does to your renal system, let alone your neurology.
07:40 <Cepheid> Fair enough.
07:41 <PinkieShy> Schism I did something like that almost before.. lol
07:41 <PinkieShy> 24 cups of coffee a day for a month..
07:41 <Schism> Yes, but keep in mind, that's still just two pots /over the course of a day/, not drank all at once.
07:41 <PinkieShy> Let me tell you.. that lead to the seizure i had back in 2017.. Which my brother said as well that i stopped breathing, and he couldn't find a pulse on me.
07:41 <Cepheid> Ah. Thats how i missed the zeroes. I assumed the whole of ground coffee may as well have been caffiene.
07:42 * Schism shivers. "Yeah, I have maybe one pot a day these days."
07:42 <PinkieShy> The thing about that is..
07:42 <PinkieShy> If i were to ever attempt that again.. Which I learned my lesson.. uhh
07:42 <PinkieShy> I might not get lucky and survive..
07:42 <Cepheid> Yeah I can only have one cup a day. I wonder what two pots would do to me.
07:43 <PinkieShy> If my brother wasn't home that day.. I could be a few feet under rotting to dust.
07:44 <Cepheid> Knowing me, a pot of coffee would start with me being ultra calm. Then about five holes in various objects, along with raging and violence the likes the world has never seen out of a single person.
07:45 <PinkieShy> Let me tell you thinking more and more why I did that back then..
07:45 <PinkieShy> The caffeine addiction at the time lead me to believe the Caffeine was helping me stay focused on stuff easier.
07:46 <Cepheid> That's because it does. The problem is that it loses effectiveness. And it is addictive for its effects. So people keep increasing the dose.
07:46 <Cepheid> It is not that uncommon to see people drinking a pot or two a day.
07:47 <Schism> Speaking of such, I believe I shall nap now. Have a good ... morning, folks!
07:47 <Cepheid> Yup. Sleep well.
07:49 <Cepheid> I suspect caffiene interacts with the neurotransmitters that cause my aggression, so probably why i can only drink one cup a day. More than one cup likely intereferes too much and I start getting moody due to the interference.

10:54 <ConfusionRift> This is the worst idea ever! I mean, aside from riding a Lao Shan Lung!
10:57 <Cepheid> I know it's partly to encourage that students write down notes, but is it really necessary to publish incomplete slides that are inconsistent with what will be shown in the classroom setting?
10:57 <Cepheid> The only other benefit of this I can see is encouraging students to show up, but if classroom attendance by halfway through the semester is any indication..
10:57 <Cepheid> It doesn't work.
10:58 <Cepheid> By halfway through the semester, my TA workload will be cut in half because half the students will have withdrawn.
10:59 <Cepheid> Also, I'm gonna be kicking myself in the butt for this, but I'm going to be working as a TA who has the intentions of getting assignments back ASAP. I'm tired of waiting up to two months to get assignments back, and I'm sure my classmates were too. I'm going to do my best to get them back sooner than that.
11:02 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfYNj01Vgow Okay, what the heck is this thing. ConfusionRift, check this thing out.
11:02 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.
11:04 <ConfusionRift> Whatever it is, it's exclusive to Frontier. Eeeech.
11:04 <Cepheid> Eeeyup
11:05 <Cepheid> Truth told, World is basically turning out to be more like Frontier than the mainstream games. The game is designed to be a "long-term Monster Hunter" game, as I understand it.
11:05 <Cepheid> So we'll start seeing stuff like that in MHWorld.
11:05 <ConfusionRift> Urgh.
11:06 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Monster Hunter Frontier Z: G Rank Eruzerion (エルゼリオン) 10th Anniversary Special Monster [4K]
11:06 <Cepheid> I think that's also why there's so much crossover stuff too.
11:06 <ConfusionRift> A bit late there, Derpy. Thank you though. :P
11:07 <Cepheid> Frontier is a haven for crossovers.
11:07 <Cepheid> I mean, so were the more recent console games, but not quite to the same extent.
11:07 <ConfusionRift> Thing is, crossover quests are temporary.
11:07 <ConfusionRift> Events that come and go, and are dependent on very highly skilled hunters.
11:08 <Cepheid> Mmhmm, that's the one major change from the old-world series to MHWorld.
11:08 <Cepheid> The older series, the quests remained. Now?
11:08 <Cepheid> They're dependent on some sort of schedule set by Capcom. I imagine eventually they will be permanently unlocked, but yeah.
11:08 * Cepheid checks something for future reference.
11:08 <ConfusionRift> Hopefully.
11:09 <Cepheid> Hum, looks like MHWorld works fine on Core i7 2600k. Wonder which chipsets it is that are causing problems.
11:10 <Cepheid> People are saying the game won't run on chipsets missing a certain set of instructions, thus older chips are affected.
11:10 <Cepheid> Though admittedly that doesn't shock me.
11:11 <Cepheid> Many games still don't use anything above I think SSE2.
11:12 <Cepheid> Got all these nice instruction sets for doing stuff like vector arithmetic at high-speed, but it's barely ever used because developers have to design around the idea of compatibility over performance.
11:13 <ConfusionRift> Is it really a CPU specific problem?
11:13 <Cepheid> Apparently.
11:14 <Cepheid> There are some saying it has to do with Denuvo using an instruction set not available on certain CPUs.
11:14 * ConfusionRift sighs.
11:14 <Cepheid> And that when the game attempts to start up, it crashes because of the lack of the instruction set.
11:14 <Cepheid> Apparently it affects mostly i3 and i5, early generations.
11:14 <ConfusionRift> You know what that sounds like? They just ported the game, that's about it.
11:14 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, the other big problem affecting the PC release is connectivity issues.
11:15 <Cepheid> Pretty much that's what they did.
11:15 <ConfusionRift> Lazy Capcom being lazy.
11:15 <Cepheid> I don't entirely think the devs are at fault in this case.
11:16 <ConfusionRift> I said Capcom, not the devs.
11:16 <Cepheid> Right, right.
11:16 *** Quits: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)
11:16 <Cepheid> They probably wanted to get it out sooner, so they cut the deadline multiple times.
11:17 <ConfusionRift> Single test, on a system that closely resembles a console and BAM, it works flawlessly.
11:17 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, the engine again runs great, if you can get the game running without issues stemming from CPUs. There's a bit of a performance impact from one graphical feature, but..
11:17 <Cepheid> It's about on par with the PS4, using PS4-era hardware.
11:17 <ConfusionRift> There's the problem right there.
11:18 <Cepheid> People have actually managed to get the game running equivalently to, or better, than the PS4 using hardware that is, when combined, believed to be inferior.
11:18 <Cepheid> So yeah, the engine's well-developed. Outside of that, there seems to be interactions with Denuvo causing problems, and inexplicable network issues.
11:19 <Cepheid> A recent patch that was meant to fix the network issues apparently made things worse for networking, though.
11:22 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
11:23 * Cepheid pokes around and examines intrinsics for SSE and such.
11:25 <Cepheid> Never toyed with 'em. Would like to see how effective they are for doing stuff like vector-matrix multiplication.
11:26 <Cepheid> Seems it's a pain in the rear, though.
11:28 <Cepheid> There's no standardized implementation for compilers to support, so going from compiler to compiler, such as GNU GCC, or LLVM with clang, or Microsoft's VC++ compiler, will result in incompatibilities and the need for changing the source to account for each platform.

12:08 <ADragonDreaming> no u
12:09 <Cepheid> Hello!
12:09 * Cepheid explodes after something prods him.
12:11 <Cepheid> How is everyone?
12:19 <Cepheid> 24 years to figure out how to trigger a DOOM 2 secret.
12:19 <Cepheid> Without cheating.
12:19 <Cepheid> It relies on a known bug in the engine. Ironically, this bug is fixed in many source ports, making this bug impossible in source ports that do not replicate "vanilla" behaviour.
12:26 <ADragonDreaming_> whosay what?
12:28 <Cepheid> Hmmm?
12:28 <ADragonDreaming_> what secret?
12:31 <Cepheid> Map 15, Secret #4. It's a linedef(A line definition that specifies some sort of trait such that when you cross it or "activate" it, something happens. Among other things.) that adds to the "Secret Percentage" at the tally at the end.
12:31 <ADragonDreaming_> ah, okay
12:31 <Cepheid> Problem is, it's next to a teleporter. Attempting to walk over the linedef causes the teleporter to trigger, but the secret to not be registered.
12:32 <Cepheid> Apparently, triggering it involves using a Pain Elemental and a doorway.
12:32 <Cepheid> The combination results in a bug that causes the linedef to be triggered.
12:33 <Cepheid> Up until now, the highest secret percentage possible on the map was 90%.
12:33 <Cepheid> However, with this bug discovered and it's usage in the secret, it is now possible to achieve 100% on the map without cheating.
12:48 <Cepheid> So how goes MHGU ADragonDreaming_.

17:35 <Cepheid> You know how cats can also gather? Well, I was wondering how they might climb while holding large items(Eggs, fossils, etc)
17:36 <Cepheid> Since the objects in question are basically almost the same size as them, volumetrically. Mass, let's not talk about that.
17:36 <Cepheid> Anyhow, it turns out they climb walls with large objects by BALANCING THE OBJECT ON THEIR NOSES.
17:36 <Schism> Ah, of course. Makes perfect sense.

18:01 <ADragonHoarding> or any of the dromes. Or Great Maccao
18:02 <Cepheid> Yian Kut-ku.
18:02 <Cepheid> Came before Qurupeco.
18:02 <Cepheid> Hence Precursor Chicken.
18:02 <ADragonHoarding> ah
18:03 <Schism> Precursor chicken sounds like a dish made with ancient spices.
18:03 <Cepheid> As for that tweet, I saw it. Yeah, cats aren't fond of water, but if you get them used to it when they're young, they can be silly crazy about it.
18:03 <Cepheid> I follow an account that once showed a video of one of their cats being let out of of the carrier at the beach, and it just ran to the water.
18:08 <Cepheid> ADragonHoarding, if you don't want ease of difficulty early on, I advise against using the DLC item packs you can download. I used 'em, and it gave me a metric ton of various armor spheres. I have 131 armour on this jaggi set.

18:19 <Cepheid> Mind, it stops you at Armor Sphere+. You can't go further than that 'cause none of the packs give you the next item in the rank. Gives you access to G-rank spheres though, but a far more limited supply.

18:43 <Cepheid> It's a Rhenoplos. It interrupts friggen everything. It doesn't matter where you are, what you're doing, or what your relationship is to that Rhenoplos. It will find you, and it will interrupt you.
18:45 <ADragonHoarding> It has a very specific set of skills.
18:48 <Schism> The Rhenoplos has a very strong /nose/, too. So if you're upwind...
18:50 <ADragonHoarding> ooh, eternal fossile is worth 1550z
18:50 <ADragonHoarding> *1500
18:50 <Cepheid> Makes the wycademy point collection for that particular area easy.
18:51 <Cepheid> Just drop one of the fossils off, done.

18:59 <ADragonHoarding> wait here it is
19:00 <ADragonHoarding> but it did not give me shiny beetle

19:58 <Cepheid> Hum, I wonder if it's possible to defeat any of the Four when you first encounter them. Trying with Gammoth, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere. Then again, it does have like, 5k HP.
20:02 <ADragonHoarding> The Four?
20:02 <Cepheid> There's a set of four monsters, each specific to a given village.
20:03 <Cepheid> Gammoth, Astalos, Mizutsune, and Glavenus.
20:03 <ADragonHoarding> ah
20:03 <ADragonHoarding> Funny thing about the Petrified hunting horn

20:23 <Cepheid> Dang, that's it. I can't fight it anymore. I broke several body parts, at least.

21:11 <Cepheid> Got plenty of poison bombs, and a bunch of altaroths that I need to harvest ripened mushrooms from(Done), might as well carve 'em up.
21:18 <Cepheid> 7 stomachs, 2 jaws. Not much, but better than before. Which was 0 and 0 respectively.
21:18 <ADragonHoarding> oh right.
21:18 <ADragonHoarding> hunting altaroth and bnahabra. That's why everyone should have a bowgun.
21:20 <ADragonHoarding> hunt of the day has updated to Great Maccao
21:20 <ADragonHoarding> let's rock it
21:21 <Cepheid> Works for me.

21:21 <ADragonHoarding> yeh
21:21 <Cepheid> I have Lagombi.
21:23 <Cepheid> Because I broke the parts on my Gammoth battle, I have it's chest piece unlocked, heh.
21:28 <ADragonHoarding> congrats
21:30 <ADragonHoarding> hm.
21:31 <ADragonHoarding> mount and topple monster twice
21:31 <ADragonHoarding> I suppose it's time to try out aerial horn
21:34 <Cepheid> Not a bad form, but it limits your customization a bit, regarding arts.
21:35 <Cepheid> You're restricted to one art, but you can do a jumping roll. Hit the monster while doing the jump, and you'll launch yourself above the monster. Strike on the way down, you might mount
21:39 <Cepheid> That said, I find it's most beneficial for mobile classes.
21:39 <Cepheid> Mobile weapons*. Like SnS.
21:41 <Cepheid> Finally, got access to Demondrug.
21:42 <Cepheid> And armorskin.
21:50 <ADragonHoarding> nice
21:50 <ADragonHoarding> Anyway, yeah, I tend to avoid aerial style, but the subquest is to topply cephadrome twice, so.
