02:03 <Schism> Mm, long weekend up here, too.

02:04 <Schism> Glad you enjoyed the day off!

02:04 <Thelema5> I'm not used to having holidays off, this is my first job which has a paid holiday perk

02:09 <Thelema5> I'm thinking of doing my freelance copywriting gig again, it's easy money

02:13 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com)

02:14 <Thelema5> The content mill I work with pays $10.50 for 300 words, $21 for 600, $50 for 1,000, $90 for 1500, and $130 for 2000- assuming the peice sells.  Getting clients is pretty easy if you're selective about which requests you accept, and I've never had a problem with them paying

02:15 <Thelema5> I can bang out a few 300 word pieces in my spare time, it's easy money

02:16 <Schism> Nice.  o.o

02:17 <PinkieShy> Adventure time series finale was sad..

02:19 <Thelema5> I didn't watch it

02:20 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 were you a fan of the show?

02:21 <Thelema5> I wouldn't call myself a fan, but I watched it on occasion

02:21 <PinkieShy> I was thinking earlier too, when My little pony FiM series finale happens.. That'll probably be just as sad.

02:21 <PinkieShy> No doubt it will unless they make the last episode all happy ending :P

02:22 <Thelema5> I haven't even gotten around to watching the last several episodes of MLP

02:22 *** Quits: Pi (saxopi@Pony-0pl.p34.200.112.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

02:22 <Thelema5> Have they been worthwhile?

02:22 <SunsetShimmer> yeah, they've been alright

02:23 <SunsetShimmer> I mean thats subjective anyway, so *Shrug*

02:24 <Thelema5> I haven't been impressed with what I've seen of the season so far- I understand the need to introduce a bunch of new characters and shift the focus away from the mane 6, and the school is a great plot device to bring them in... but I just don't connect with any of them

02:25 <PinkieShy> Well this Ryzen machine gets returned next week.

02:25 <PinkieShy> Gotta call up Aarons tomorrow to setup return process and probably when i return it sign paper's stating that i am returning it without any damage and such.

02:26 <SunsetShimmer> Thelema5: The season hasn't hinged fully on that as a thing

02:27 <Thelema5> Okay, great!  I'll watch a bit more

02:27 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, good luck!

02:27 <SunsetShimmer> I would certainly watch episode 13 if you want something mane six'y with a side of entertaining narrative

02:28 <Thelema5> Thanksie!  I'll watch it now.

02:28 <SunsetShimmer> and, at the very least, give the new 6 a try...they're clearly here for the long haul anyway

02:28 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 its better than sticking to it until the $2000 pay off :P

02:28 <SunsetShimmer> and its harder to connect with new characters right away as-is

02:29 <Thelema5> Oh, heh!  Looks like I left off on ep 12.

02:30 <SunsetShimmer> So you're not THAT behind. :p

02:30 <SunsetShimmer> we're on 19 at this point afterall

02:31 <Thelema5> Oh!

02:31 <Thelema5> Well maybe I'll catch up.

02:31 <SunsetShimmer> Might as well, lol

02:32 <SunsetShimmer> some great trixie/starlight shenanigans ahead, and there's a surprise appearance from an old 'friend' to be had. ;3

02:36 <Thelema5> Oh, you know what- I DID see ep13. If I recall I found the ending to be lacking

02:40 *** Quits: Stormspark (stormspark@Pony-2i7.fvo.126.65.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

02:40 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, it's probably a good idea to document the unit in photos before you bring it in... get some images of the case (all around), the boot sequence, and the GUI at the ready. Might not hurt to snapshot the specs and benchmarks, too...

02:40 <Thelema5> Just in case they try to claim damage

02:41 <Thelema5> You can demonstrate that it was working fine when you brought it in

02:42 <PinkieShy> Disney looks to be finally trying with club penguin island..

02:42 <PinkieShy> they seem to have added free shirt for penguins to wear on the island lol

02:45 <Thelema5> Those bots are getting annoying

02:46 <Golden> How many times have they been coming

02:47 <Schism> Endlessly.

02:48 <Thelema5> Past week or so

02:48 <Golden> Jesus

02:52 <PinkieShy> Tbh seeing what i am seeing right on disney's game

02:52 <PinkieShy> I predict they'll close in a few more years.. I mean it probably cost more to run the game than the money its bring in.. Like membership players lol

02:52 *** Quits: Cobalt_Blitz (Cobalt@Pony-39pn3u.res.rr.com) (Quit: Leaving)

02:53 <Thelema5> Wouldn't be the first time Disney lost money

02:54 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 If they close it and gave up on Club Penguin i believe Rocketsnail.com the orginal creator that disney bought the game from in like 2007, would try to buy it back

02:54 <PinkieShy> The community wants him to lol

02:54 <PinkieShy> He has a popular game right now called Epic Snails.. Its a shooting game that's free.

02:55 <Thelema5> What did they pay rocketsnail for it?

02:56 <PinkieShy> venturebeat: $350 million and another $350 million if performance targets were met through 2009

02:56 <Thelema5> Woah

02:57 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 the orginal game before it closed to become Club penguin island i heard had 12 million players lol

03:14 <Thelema5> That might be misleading- these are not chips of black truffles.  That would be insane.  These are potato chips flavored with black truffle oil

03:21 <Gladiolus> Expect to see me more tho as school heats up. Gonna spend a lot of time there.

03:21 <Gladiolus> and workin' at home

03:21 * Thelema5 lost his job, got a new one (also working at home)...

03:21 <Gladiolus> :<

03:21 * Gladiolus snuggo

03:22 <Thelema5> How do you like working at home?  For me it has been a bit of an adjustment, but overall I think I like it

03:22 <Gladiolus> Oh I mean doing school stuff at home not a job :p

03:22 <Thelema5> Oh, heh

03:22 <Gladiolus> Just gonna have a lot of that this year

03:23 <Thelema5> Good luck!

03:23 <Gladiolus> c:

03:23 * Thelema5 rolls out of bed 5 minutes before work and spends his first 4 hours on the clock in his PJs

03:24 <Thelema5> Are you still still studying political science, Gladiolus?

03:24 <Gladiolus> yus

03:24 <Thelema5> Wow, I didn't know there was so much to learn!

03:25 <Gladiolus> well, getting kicked out for a year and having to spend another year repairing my gpa didn't help >.>

03:25 <Thelema5> Ouchies

03:25 * Ali lost her job over a year ago and doesn't plan on getting another one

03:26 <Thelema5> JObs are for suckers.

03:26 <Thelema5> I've been in the workforce for 25 years and I am convinced of it

03:26 <Gladiolus> :p

03:28 <Snapai__> suckers...

03:28 <Thelema5> Gladiolus, are you still assembling vintage computer systems?

03:28 <Snapai__> like the coop game in Splatoon?

03:28 <Gladiolus> Yep.

03:29 <Thelema5> Nice!

03:29 <Gladiolus> I made enough money off it this summer to upgrade my macbook to a 2018 :p

03:29 <Gladiolus> dat quad core 13 inch

03:29 <Gladiolus> wew

03:29 <Thelema5> Yay!

03:29 <Gladiolus> I don't normally go nuts over THE LATEST AND GREATEST but going from dual to quad is a heck of a leap.

03:32 * Thelema5 doesn't know what sort of processor he has

03:33 <Snapai__> Probably a computer processor

03:33 * Thelema5 snerks

03:33 <Snapai__> Unless you're in the kitchen - then possibly a food processor

03:33 <Thelema5> If I were in the kitchen I'd have some seitan pepperoni, which would be /awesome/

03:35 <Gladiolus> Well it's not hard to find out.

03:36 <Gladiolus> On windows right click my computer and press properteries.

03:36 <Gladiolus> (This PC on win10, through explorer)

03:38 <Thelema5> dual core

03:38 <Snapai__> Satan pepperoni! <-- imagine that in all caps

03:38 <Thelema5> Guess I'll have to upgrade

03:38 <Thelema5> HEH

03:38 <Thelema5> But honestly, this is a KILLER recipe https://veganhuggs.com/vegan-pepperoni-recipe/

03:39 <Thelema5> Easy and delicious

03:39 <Gladiolus> well, what gen dual core? Core 2?

03:39 <Gladiolus> recent-gen dual cores, 7th gen and such, is actually not bad at all unless you hecka multitask

03:39 <Gladiolus> 8th gen intel was a heck of a leap tho

03:40 * Thelema5 errrs

03:40 <Gladiolus> gens are easy, if it's 7000 it's 7th gen, 8000 is 8th gen, etc

03:40 <Gladiolus> for intel anyway

03:41 <AppleDash> Gladiolus, I have a 8088, does that mean it's 8th gen

03:41 <AppleDash> :>

03:41 <Gladiolus> yes

03:41 * Gladiolus noms AppleDash

03:41 <Gladiolus> godo bat

03:41 <AppleDash> Eeee

03:43 * Thelema5 is rocking a years-old Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-4130 CPU @ 3.40GHz, 3400 Mhz, 2 Core(s)

03:43 <Thelema5> For the record, I only use my computer for image editing and browsing the web- mostly watching youtube

03:44 <Thelema5> Don't need much

03:45 <Gladiolus> that's not that bad

03:45 <Gladiolus> I mean it's outdated obviously but it works.

03:45 <Thelema5> But that recipe really is the bomb, XD

03:45 <Gladiolus> o4o

03:47 <Gladiolus> in other news, we bought our dad a new laptop a week ago

03:47 <Gladiolus> he was still on a 2006 first-gen core 2

03:47 <Gladiolus> now he's on an 8th gen i5 o6o

03:50 <Thelema5> Wow.  What does he even use that for?

03:50 <Gladiolus> not much. remoting into work, web browsing, email and word processing

03:50 <Thelema5> Aaaah.

03:50 <Gladiolus> the old one was legit broken tho lol. GPU crashed doing anything intense (such as youtube) batter died years ago, crashed at random a few tiems lately

03:51 <Thelema5> Youch

03:51 <Gladiolus> the 60gb SSD i bought him years ago was filled up, this one has a 256

03:51 <Thelema5> All pron?

03:52 <Gladiolus> psh

03:52 <Gladiolus> ~~probably~~

03:52 <Gladiolus> wait this isn't discord

03:52 * Thelema5 giggles

03:52 <Gladiolus> real talk: the year is 2001, our pc has a virus. porn popups constantly

03:53 <Gladiolus> 9 year old me uses it for games and they pop up during them, i learned a lot about female anatomy

03:53 <Thelema5> HEH

03:53 <Gladiolus> One day I was being a detective and wanted to find where the virus was- and I did!

03:53 <Thelema5> nice!

03:53 <Gladiolus> I found all the porn links in my dads favoruites folder!

03:53 <Gladiolus> I deleted them!

03:53 <Thelema5> Awww

03:53 <Gladiolus> I ran into the garage excitedly and told my parents!

03:53 <Thelema5> Fight ensures

03:53 <Thelema5> *ensues

03:53 <Gladiolus> oh no my mom is much better than that

03:53 <Gladiolus> but there was uh

03:53 <Gladiolus> confusing amounts of laughter

03:53 <Thelema5> Heh

03:54 <Gladiolus> and dads all like, "my goddamn porn"

03:54 <Gladiolus> but can't say anything, clearly

03:54 <Thelema5> Real talk: 1991... find my dads CDRs labeled "system recovery"...

03:54 <Thelema5> Insert and run... OMG

03:55 <Gladiolus> I bought a powerbook 1999 model from a non-original owner.

03:55 <Thelema5> Heh

03:55 <Gladiolus> Had data on it, I was gonna format it but... well I tend to snoop! I can't help it

03:55 <Gladiolus> it was full, absolutely loaded, with low quality BBW porn dating to 2002

03:55 <Thelema5> It's fun

03:55 <Gladiolus> I got a Dell that had files belonging to a local author but accidentally wiped it before I could archive it. I cri

03:56 <Thelema5> Ouch

03:56 <Gladiolus> On the one hand, data security is good. On the other I wanted to email them and connect.

03:56 <Gladiolus> but their name and such is lost to time now

03:56 <Thelema5> Makes sense

03:57 <Gladiolus> Also the man that wrote the original For Dummies book sent me a computer and a signed copy.

03:57 <Gladiolus> The computer sadly broke in transit.

03:57 <Thelema5> Woah!

03:57 <Thelema5> That's still pretty great

03:57 <Gladiolus> Yeah it's a rare model with a obscure power supply and I had one of my own, emailed him asking for a pinout so I could repair it.

03:57 <Gladiolus> He was like "I'm sending the damn thing." Free, which was like

03:57 <Gladiolus> _woah_

03:58 <Thelema5> O.O

03:58 <Gladiolus> and then it ended up broken and has long since been abandoned because replacement parts straight up don't exist.

03:58 <Gladiolus> Go that signed copy tho!

03:58 <Thelema5> RIP

03:59 <Thelema5> Gladiolus, do you know much about antique game systems?

03:59 <Gladiolus> Not really, not my jam.

03:59 <Gladiolus> mostly because it's super pricey.

03:59 <Thelema5> Cool beans

03:59 <Gladiolus> People see a 486? Who cares, toss it. Oldputer can be cheap.

03:59 <Gladiolus> Old game systems? People get dollar signs in their eyes.

04:00 <Thelema5> I bought a box of games, controllers, an atari 2600 (vader) and a sears knockoff at a yardsale for $5.  The 2600 doesn't work.

04:01 <Gladiolus> neat

04:01 <Thelema5> But the Sears clone does

04:01 <Schism> Man, I remember Sears.

04:01 <Thelema5> Wondering if its worth anything. Has numberpad contollers and everything

04:02 <Gladiolus> probably

04:02 <Gladiolus> amount? no idea

04:02 <Thelema5> Kay

04:03 <Thelema5> I've been having fun with it at least, running all those old carts

04:03 <Gladiolus> :>

04:03 <Gladiolus> oh we bought a switch recently, split it with my brother.

04:03 <Gladiolus> by recently i mean literally friday

04:03 <Thelema5> Heh, nice

04:04 <Thelema5> Do non-working atari 2600's have any value?

04:05 <Thelema5> Parts?

04:07 <Gladiolus> probably

04:08 <Thelema5> Not your specialty.

04:08 <Gladiolus> nooooope

04:09 <Thelema5> Coo

04:09 <Thelema5> You're still my friend though

04:36 * Ali throws the chips into the trash, there problem solved

04:36 <Thelema5> Yay?

04:37 <Emmis> That's pretty much how you stop any kind of addiction, cold turkey or at a slower pace exponentially throughout the weeks -w-

04:38 * Gladiolus boops

04:39 <Thelema5> Eff it all. All I know is that I'm going to a therapist now, they say tehy're trying to help me.  But at the same time they're total assholes that go through your past stuff....

04:39 <Emmis> o^o Annyeong, Gladiolus

04:41 <Thelema5> Gladiolus, I know you!

04:41 <Emmis> That sounds bad, wonder why someone who's trying to help you would kind of shove some of your old issues on your face. Maybe they're trying to do it like dog training

04:41 <Thelema5> You're a freind.

12:03 <Cepheid> Morning.

12:03 <Schism> Heyo.

12:03 * Schism finally got that freakin' card. Fiiiinally. Of course there will be worse, but ye gods.

12:04 <Cepheid> Heh.

12:04 <Cepheid> I had yet another godsawful weird dream last night.

12:07 <Cepheid> Started off harmlessly enough.  Ended in a world-scale war against a hive-mind army of alien machinery running on an AI.

12:08 <Cepheid> And me apparently ending up in a coma for ~30 years.

12:10 <Cepheid> ...  I also had children with a humanoid alien who helped us win said war.

12:15 <Schism> Dreams are definitely peculiar.

12:17 <Schism> Speaking of, bleh.  I should get back to rest for a few before it becomes too hot to even relax.

12:18 <Cepheid> Not a bad idea.

12:21 <Finwe> o3o

12:21 <Finwe> Good afternoon, everypony.

12:21 <Finwe> Messrs Schism and Cepheid.

12:21 * Finwe doffs his hat.

12:23 <Cyan_Spark> RAdm. Finwe

12:24 * Cyan_Spark doffs a donut

12:24 <Finwe> Mr Cyan_Spark.

12:24 <Finwe> Or was it Miss?

12:24 * Finwe doffs his hat nevertheless.

12:24 <Cyan_Spark> :3

12:25 <Cyan_Spark> Well it used to be Cpl. Cyan_Spark, but I don’t like talking about those times

12:25 <Finwe> My IRL rank in the reserves is Sgt.

12:27 <Finwe> Although my status is a bit unclear since I got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.

12:27 <Cyan_Spark> Huh.

12:28 <Cyan_Spark> Do you split it into 1st/2nd/3rd sgt where you are?

12:29 <Finwe> Cyan_Spark: Type 1 and type 2. Type 1 is autoimmune disease where your own leucocytes destroy the insulin-producing tissue in the spleen.

12:29 * Cyan_Spark blinks

12:29 <Cyan_Spark> Your rank, silly

12:30 <Finwe> Ah.

12:30 <Finwe> We have Junior Sergeant, corresponding to NATO Cpl and Senior Sergeant, corresponding to Sergeant-Major.

12:31 <Finwe> And Sergeant, which is pretty much the same as Sgt in NATO standard.

12:32 <Cepheid> Your status is unclear because you developed diabetes, what?

12:32 <Finwe> Cepheid: In the army, that is.

12:32 <Cyan_Spark> Huh.

12:33 <Finwe> Obviosly I can just notify them that I don't want to be part of the reserves anymore, but I can go on if I like.

12:33 <Cepheid> I figured.

12:33 <Cepheid> But why would it affect your status?  'Cause of the risk of hypo/hyperglycemia?

12:33 <Finwe> If you get diagnosed with diabetes before the conscription the won't even take you into the army.

12:33 <Cepheid> Huh.

12:34 <Cepheid> Knowing me, I probably can't even join the Canadian military.  Diabetic, asthmatic, mental illness, chronic rhinitus causing migraine-level headaches.

12:34 <Cepheid> Also I'm fat.

12:35 <Finwe> Because they can't guarantee that you get your medication at time of crisis.

12:35 <Finwe> (That is, war.)

12:35 <Cyan_Spark> Canda

12:35 <Cyan_Spark> 🇚🇊

12:35 <Cyan_Spark> 🍯

12:36 <Finwe> It was quite a project to get this old Mac Pro up and running, but now it is done.

12:36 * Starlight_Glimmer tastes Finwe's sweet blood

12:36 <Finwe> What remains to be done is to swap the graphics card.

12:36 <Cyan_Spark> O_o

12:36 <Cyan_Spark> Glimglam is bat

12:36 <Starlight_Glimmer> Nuuu

12:37 <Finwe> Starlight_Glimmer: My blood isn't any sweeter than yours, thanks to the insulin injections.

12:37 <Starlight_Glimmer> Bats are like gross

12:37 * Cyan_Spark hangs a “caution: bat” sign around Starlight_Glimmer’s neck

12:37 <Finwe> When I got the diagnosis, though, I had over three times the usual maximum concentration of glucose in my blood.

12:38 <Finwe> 23 mmol/l or so.

12:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> Joke's on you. I'm type II ;-)

12:38 <Cyan_Spark> Aluminum box Mac

12:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> See I always knew I'm much sweeter :D

12:38 <Finwe> Cyan_Spark: Yup, it's Mac Pro 3.1.

12:38 * Finwe booples Starlight_Glimmer.

12:40 <Finwe> 14 gigabytes of memory and two Xeon E5462 processors.

12:40 <Starlight_Glimmer> Company just ordered a new server for VMs

12:41 <Finwe> I took the freedom of inserting some non-Apple-approved PC2-5300F-555-11 DIMM:s.

12:41 <Starlight_Glimmer> 256 GiB DDR4 RAM. Told my boss I want a RAM disk for backups. ;)

12:41 <Finwe> :3

12:41 <Cyan_Spark> O_o

12:41 <Cyan_Spark> My /storage/ is 256 GB

12:42 <Finwe> The native Radeon HD 2600 probably cannot cope with anything too intensive.

12:43 <Cepheid> Probably not, no.

12:43 <Starlight_Glimmer> Interestingly outside of my phone and Pis I do no longer have a device with less than 512 GB

12:43 <Finwe> Luckily I have some more modern graphics cards.

12:44 <Starlight_Glimmer> My new XPS has got 512 GB on a NVME SSD

12:44 <Cepheid> So, looks like I have two moderate-difficulty classes, one "why am I even taking this?"-difficulty class, and one easy-difficulty class this semester.

12:44 <Finwe> Hard disk space has become obscenely inexpensive lately.

12:45 <Starlight_Glimmer> Well not putting my backups on SSDs anytime soon

12:45 * Finwe boops Starlight_Glimmer with a tape drive.

12:46 <Starlight_Glimmer> I've got 6 TB effective on a RAID5

12:46 <Starlight_Glimmer> Does well enough for now

12:47 * Finwe feeds his personal vampire.

12:47 <Finwe> It started beeping, indicating that it wants some blood.

12:47 <Finwe> o3o

12:47 <Finwe> 4.7 mmol/l after lunch.

12:48 <Starlight_Glimmer> My co-worker just got 10 TB effective on RAID1 though. Kinda want to to outperform him just for the sake of it

12:48 <Finwe> Two hours after, that is.

12:48 <Finwe> Prior to lunch I had 4.3.

12:48 <Cepheid> Isn't that considered a bit low?

12:49 <Finwe> No, the normal values are betwixt 4 and 6 mmol/l.

12:50 *** Quits: Cyan_Spark (Cyan_Spark@sparks.only.last.so.long) (Quit: shower)

12:51 <Finwe> Over 7 is considered diabetes and below 4 hypoglycaemia.

12:52 <Cepheid> I'm usually about 8 or 9.

12:52 <Cepheid> That said, there doesn't appear to be any adverse effects.

12:52 <Finwe> And values over 10 mmol/l cause increased risk of kidney failure.

12:53 <Cepheid> That on the other hand is news to me.  No one's mentioned that to me.

12:53 <Finwe> I was lucky to avoid both that and ketoacidosis, as my diabetes went unattended for at least a year.

12:54 <Cepheid> Yeah, that's the same scenario with my dad.

12:54 <Finwe> I just lost weight and had to drink and urinate constantly.

12:54 <Cepheid> I regularly checked myself with one of the extraneous meters every couple of months.

12:54 <Cepheid> That's how I found out something was wrong.

12:55 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I've been cutting back on sweets a lot, and increasing my intake of protein to cut down on the snacking.

12:55 <Cepheid> You a heavy soda/pop drinker, Finwe?

12:56 <Finwe> No, I can't say I am.

12:56 <Finwe> I sometimes buy Pepsi Max, but that's at most once a month.

12:56 <Cepheid> I was gonna suggest as an alternative, get a sodastream and use those sugarfree water mixes.

12:56 <Lumindia> Yeet!

12:56 <Cepheid> Works nice.  But not necessary if you aren't a soda drinker.

12:57 <Finwe> I drink plain old tap water, mineral water, milk and orange juice mixed with tap water.

12:57 <Lumindia> '-'

12:57 * Lumindia boops GlimGlam

12:57 * Lumindia snugs the glim pony

12:57 <Finwe> A 50-50 mixture gives the drink about the same sugar content as milk has.

12:58 <Cepheid> I usually drink water, with the occasional soda mix.

13:00 <Cepheid> I should write down the details of my dream before I forget.

13:00 <Finwe> Our national board of health and wellfare demands that lunches sold at work, schools, universities and whatnot have to meet certain requirements, and their current recommendation includes a slice of bread and a glass of milk.

13:01 <Finwe> You can of course choose not to drink the milk, but you still have to pay for it.

13:11 <Cepheid> Fun.

13:11 <Cepheid> Here it's a bit more free-form, at least at colleges and universities.

13:11 <Finwe> Or have some juice instead.

13:12 <Cepheid> Basically, most of our food is served by various franchises.

13:14 <Finwe> It is the same at my university. There is one national chain, Fazer, and one international chain, Sodexo.

13:14 <Finwe> Two restaurants/cafeterias are run by students.

13:24 <Cepheid> Subway, Pizza Pizza, and the rest are all franchises or restaurants I've never heard of outside the university or colleges.

13:24 <Finwe> I think that this keyboard is designed for iMac. I have to lift the computer case on the table if I want the cable to reach any of the USB ports.

13:24 <Cepheid> Otherwise, around the campus you will find Tim Horton's, Second Cup and Starbucks.

13:25 <Finwe> Until last Thursday, we only had Subway.

13:26 <Finwe> Now that a mall was opened in the ground floor and basement of a brand new univesity building, we have more stores, cafés and restaurants.

13:28 <Cepheid> Last I saw the campus, the changes they made were "open up the new building to be used" and "close off a major, important parking lot to start deconstructing it for the purpose of putting yet *ANOTHER* School of Sprott Business building.

13:30 <Finwe> The opening ceremony is tomorrow, by the way.

13:30 <Finwe> I think that I am expected to attend.

13:31 <Cepheid> I don't know of any Canadian college or university that has an opening ceremony.

13:31 <Cepheid> If they do have one, it's not mandatory attendance.

13:32 <Finwe> The Finnish universities always have one at the start of the academic year.

13:32 <Cepheid> We don't have rooms large enough to accomodate the several thousands of students we have.

13:33 <Finwe> Neither have we. I think that we have about 20,000 students or so.

13:33 <Cepheid> I don't know what the numbers are, but last school year, it was about 33,000.  Several thousand more than the school is capable of handling.

13:34 <Finwe> There are seats for 600 in the main auditorium.

13:34 <Cepheid> If we have a main auditorium, I don't know where it is.

13:34 <Cepheid> At Algonquin, the main auditorium was the school cafeteria.

13:34 <Finwe> :0

13:36 <Finwe> Here's a view from ours: http://facilityrental.aalto.fi/fi/midcom-serveattachmentguid-1e58a03651f549e8a0311e5b04d67cfce6931a031a0/a_sali_penkit.jpg

13:37 <Cepheid> They basically empty out the cafeteria seating, enclose it with those moveable walls, and then set up special seating for high-position individuals.

13:37 <Cepheid> Anything that happens in there is usually not open to students.  Only to upper management, investors and the like.

13:37 <Finwe> Our neighbours at the University of Helsinki have something a bit smaller but a lot fancier: https://www.helsinki.fi/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/juhlasali.jpg

13:38 <Cepheid> Closest room we have to that would be MC2000.  Minto CASE building, floor 2, room 000.  It's a classroom.

13:38 <Cepheid> Yours looks comfier, though.

13:39 <Cepheid> The chairs in all the auditorium rooms are designed to be as uncomfortable as possible.  I find them agonizing to sit in as they antagonize my tailbone issue.

13:39 <Finwe> It's from 1960's. The main building of Uni of Helsinki was built 1812.

13:39 <Finwe> Here's a view from the opposite direction: http://www.helsinki.fi/teknos/opetustilat/keskusta/f33/kuvat/jhv.jpg

13:40 <Cepheid> I'll take a picture of MC2000 to show it off whenever I go there tomorrow.

13:40 <Cepheid> And geezus.

13:40 <Cepheid> That is *FANCY*.

13:40 <Cepheid> We have nothing even remotely close to that here.

13:40 <Cepheid> Our schools are all business, about gouging students for as much money as possible.

13:40 <Cepheid> Word of advice?  Don't come to Canada for education.

13:41 <Finwe> We had a Canadian exchange student from British Columbia for 1.5 years ago.

13:42 <Cepheid> Heh.

13:42 <Finwe> I never asked her whether she had found our university better or worse than the one at which she studied in Canada.

13:42 <Cepheid> There are some good universities and colleges in Canada, I'll admit.

13:42 <Cepheid> But a good majority of them are run like big businesses.

13:43 <Cepheid> University of Waterloo comes to mind as the best one for tech.

13:43 <Finwe> Let's see what happens when I turn on the other computer...

13:44 <Cepheid> I was hoping to go to University of Waterloo, but my mental illness appears to have botched that all to hell.

13:45 <Cepheid> Granted, all of my bad marks are in the courses that I withdrew due to mental health problems afflicting me.

13:45 <Cepheid> So if I take those, my marks will go up.

13:54 <Cepheid> Overall I'm mediocre in my grades.  If I had more of a compulsion to do my work, I might fare better.

13:55 <Cepheid> I'm blaming that a bit on my medication, as I have since learned it causes the mind to become complacent and/or unconcerned about important details.

15:48 <Cepheid> I just wrote an incredibly detailed document based on my dreams.  First revision, still needs work, but unusual for me to do.

15:51 <Cepheid> Nah.

15:51 <Finwe> There are even cats in that dream.

15:51 <Cepheid> I've been having weird dreams for the last few days now, of varying topics.

15:54 <Cepheid> Some details are fuzzier than others, so they get shorter descriptions in my document.  The two biggest things I recall extensive details about got like, several paragraphs of description alone.  And I'm still not done writing up on the dream, as this was just a fraction of the full dream.

16:12 <Cepheid> I wonder just how unsafe it is to consume melatonin alongside nyquil.  The combo functions far better than the prescribed sleeping medicine given to me, has far less visible side-effects, and I get a decent, restful sleep with very little disturbances or other issues.

16:13 <Cepheid> Overall, it seems better for me than the medication prescribed by my psych.  It actually works, doesn't cause nausea, dry mouth or change the flavours of food I eat, and I sleep well and feel rested.

16:13 <Cepheid> Every time I take that pill prescribed to me, I feel like *YAY* the next day for several hours, and everything I eat or drink has a strong metallic taste to it, or makes me sick to my stomach.

16:24 <LibrarianofHope_> Hard on the stomach, but curbs my anxiety

16:25 <Cepheid> The stuff I'm on..

16:26 <Cepheid> Zopiclone is primarily used to treat sleeping issues.  It's addictive, it causes a metallic taste in food and drink, upset stomach, and persists well into the next day, so I feel like a zombie.

16:27 <LibrarianofHope_> I have lots of energy, ritalin covers that

16:28 <Cepheid> This stuff is commonly prescribed for insomnia, which I don't actually have.

16:28 <Cepheid> I sleep just fine when I am exhausted through natural means.

16:28 <LibrarianofHope_> Between my brain chemisyry issues and the anxiety i get submitted to by my dad at all times its the only i can function

16:29 <LibrarianofHope_> I can actually program sleep sort of

16:29 <LibrarianofHope_> I take my pills by 9 pm , by 11 im sleeping

16:32 <Cepheid> I take that pill, I'll be out an hour later.  But I'll wake up in about 4-5 hours, feeling like I didn't sleep at all, and have trouble getting back to sleep.

16:32 <Cepheid> I take the nyquil and melatonin, I'm out within an hour, I sleep for hours, and sometimes I wake up to nom a bowl of cereal, but I fall back asleep immediately after.  When I finally finish sleeping, I wake up and I feel like a new man.

16:33 <LibrarianofHope_> I myself sleep great, and find i could use more time in the day.

16:34 <Cepheid> The problem with the combo, is that I'm not entirely certain it's safe for me, but what I do know is that if I tell any doctor I'm taking it, they'll just tell me to stop and prescribe some medicine that causes all sorts of fun side effects and doesn't do a danged thing for me.

16:35 <LibrarianofHope_> Im in a long haul before i see any result, but the constant "emergencies" in the insurance thing give me a nagging sense of urgency

16:35 <Cepheid> The only reason, the *ONLY* reason I was able to correct my sleeping pattern, was because of the combination I use.  I tried using the zopiclone numerous times, and every time it messed everything up.

16:35 <Cepheid> And I had to start over, aggravated, irritated, and wanting to yell at someone.

16:35 <LibrarianofHope_> I feel that way a lot, hence xanax

16:35 <Cepheid> I've tried other medicines besides zopiclone.

16:36 <Cepheid> I've asked doctors numerous times to prescribe something, prior to my discovering this little combo.

16:39 <Cepheid> What do you mean, like a life goal and stuff?

16:39 <LibrarianofHope_> Yep

16:40 <Cepheid> Closest thing I have to that would be a desire to live my life in relative peace, take care of cats, and make people happy with my programming skills, be it for applications, or video games.

16:41 <LibrarianofHope_> I bring that up because it's the best way to get over this issues.

16:41 <Cepheid> I have no desire for a family, be it getting married, or getting married and having children.

16:42 <LibrarianofHope_> Having a goal and being bloody minded about getting it

16:43 <LibrarianofHope_> I gave up everything to work on mine, albeit there was not that much to give in the first place

16:43 <LibrarianofHope_> My self stemm was left in tatters by my dad, im getting it back

16:44 <Cepheid> I might have a more worthwhile goal if I weren't so mentally unstable, but there's not a lot that can be done about that entirely.

16:45 <LibrarianofHope_> You probably just need to find the perfect combo to find balance

18:41 <RyuImperator> ok, I see, in canada you can work more than 8 hours, but it needs a written agreement between employer and employee.

18:44 <Cepheid> More or less.

18:44 <Cepheid> That said, working more than 8 hours changes how many days you end up working.

18:45 <Cepheid> I don't recall the exact law specifications, but what I do recall is that employers are required to give you eight hours of rest between shifts.  As such, the absolute maximum hours you could legally work in a given day is 16 hours.

20:18 <Schism> HP follows standards in the same way as fish follow migrating caribou.

20:18 <Cepheid> It's not just HP, though.

20:19 <Cepheid> Dell, ASUS, HP, you name them, they can't implement UEFI to spec.

20:19 <Cepheid> Or standards.

20:19 <Finwe> Lenovo, too.

20:19 <Cepheid> That's why I said "You name them" because it implies there's more. :P

20:20 <Cepheid> Point is, I am not aware of any single company who has a proper implementation of UEFI for their hardware.

20:20 <Finwe> An old Lenovo UEFI only was willing to boot entries called "Windows Boot Loader" or "Red Hat Enterprise Linux".

20:20 <Cepheid> The best existing implementation of UEFI is from Intel, and it's designed specifically to be emulated by QEMU.

20:22 <Finwe> Indeed.

20:22 <Cepheid> Well, not emulated, but ran.

20:40 <Schism> Neither unified, nor particularly extendable.  Might qualify as a firmware interface.

20:40 <Schism> Extensible*

20:42 <Starlight_Glimmer> Oh it's very extendable. You can write the most amazing malware for EFI and be sure it sticks.

20:43 <Schism> No doubt... simplifying firmware adjustments always opens holes.

20:43 * Schism coughs at Tesla.

20:44 <Starlight_Glimmer> I also like how deleting /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/* can brick your device.

20:52 <Cepheid> Round corners.  Thw greatest innovation since Apple's sliced bread.  Because they clearly made friggen everything in our society.

20:53 <Cepheid> Oh great.  My professor for robotics can't spell worth beans.

20:53 <Schism> They didn't invent sliced bread, Cepheid!  They just filed a patent for bread slicing machines which includes several UI designs nobody thought to file a patent for before.

20:54 <Cepheid> Heh.

20:56 <Cepheid> Stphen Pastis.  Excellent comic creator.  Awesome dark humor skills.

20:59 <Cepheid> And for you Schism? https://twitter.com/stephanpastis/status/1033479100797575168?s=19

21:00 * Finwe is tired.

21:00 <Finwe> Bedtiem, I think.

21:00 <Finwe> !lullaby

21:00 * DerpyBot carries Finwe off to bed

21:00 * DerpyBot tucks Finwe in and hums a lullaby

21:00 <Finwe> !shoo

21:00 * DerpyBot sways from side to side, quietly humming "shoo be doo shoo shoo be doo"

21:01 <Finwe> Goodnight, everypony!

21:01 * Schism does a quick 1-minute runthrough of Urth's Gift, gets about 40,000 gil worth of materials.

21:02 <Schism> And Stephan Pastis really is awesome.

21:13 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/stephanpastis/status/996755601748246531?s=19 Meanwhile this one describes a few people I know.  Somehow not I.  Probably has to do with the fact that my feed is of various drawings of characters in varying levels of dress.

22:09 <ADragonDreaming> I should have unequipped my cats for this quest

22:19 <ADragonDreaming> I found a gypceros

22:24 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

22:26 <Cepheid> Yeah ADra.  The cats will attack the bugs.  Even if you poison bomb said bugs.

22:29 <ADragonDreaming> but, on the other hand, i need them for gypceros.

22:29 <ADragonDreaming> so the answer is to have some cats that are Large Only target.

22:31 <Cepheid> More or less.  Or just deal with it.  One or two broken bugs isn't a big issue.

22:32 <ADragonDreaming> it is the biggest issue!

22:35 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Cepheid

22:43 <ADragonDreaming> Let's try this again

22:43 <ADragonDreaming> and let's see if I can take down gypcy this time

23:16 <Cepheid> How did Gypceros go?

23:19 <ADragonDreaming> rough

23:19 <ADragonDreaming> but to be clear, I was hunting it with a bowgun

23:19 <ADragonDreaming> and using unupgraded yukumo set for armor

23:22 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/pur305/status/1036845605815894016?s=19 who the hell orders a pizza delivery during the worst hurricane seen in 25 years?

23:22 <ADragonDreaming> well clearly they aren't going to pick it up.

23:22 <ADragonDreaming> it's the worst hurricane seen in 25 years

23:24 <Cepheid> Plus technically the hurricane guarantees it'll be free.  No way he is getting to the destination in 30 minutes or less.

23:25 <Cepheid> As for the bugs, I just use poison bombs as they get near.  I bring materials to craft more too.  In this way i can keep my SnS for the invader monster.

23:27 <Cepheid> Last I recall, poison shot had a chance to outright kill the monster anyways.  Would either not poison on the first or second shot, or just kill.

23:27 <Cepheid> Which causes the bugs to asplodey.

23:29 <ADragonDreaming> So.

23:29 <ADragonDreaming> Velocidrome.

23:29 <ADragonDreaming> Tetsucabra sax

23:29 <ADragonDreaming> it's not yet 5 minutes into quest

23:30 <ADragonDreaming> I've slain velocidrome

23:33 <Cepheid> It's a drome.  It is like a Great Jaggi.  A punching bag.

23:33 <Cepheid> It exists to be one of the weakest large monsters in the series.

23:33 <ADragonDreaming> Yes, it's just it's the fastest I've done it so far.

23:35 <Cepheid> Fair enough.

23:40 <Cepheid> Aerial style has let me pull off some fun moves.  One time, I fought an Arzuros.  Rolled perfectly into the middle of its belly, l launched straight up.  I attack and hit the head.  Head breaks, and my weapon slices cleanly down the middle.  Should have caught the clip.

23:42 *** Joins: Reia (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony)

23:42 <ADragonDreaming> You mean the arms broke?

23:47 <Cepheid> ...  maybe it was a bunny?  It was a few days ago and the bunbuns, bears and oversized armadillo-anteater all blend together.  Probably a bunny though.  I definitely remember it being the head that broke.

23:47 <ADragonDreaming> Then it was a bun

23:50 <Cepheid> But yeah aerial style is fun.  Certainly makes some battles easier.  Rathian is easy to knock out of the air for one.  That tail hangs low enough to jump off it.
