00:02 <RazorSharpFang> Well the wick might not perform as well.

00:03 <ADragonDreaming> there are various reasons they might recommend not doing so.

00:03 <ADragonDreaming> 1) If you reuse the old candle jar, you aren't buying new ones from them.

00:04 <RazorSharpFang> I mean, that's the cynical reason

00:04 <ADragonDreaming> It's definitely part of the reasoning.

00:04 <ADragonDreaming> 2) Razor's point of quality - they make the point that refilling means you're doing it, not them

00:05 <ADragonDreaming> 3) Safety - fire. Know what you're doing with the candle jar, make sure you've go appropriate wax, please don't burn down your house.

00:05 <RazorSharpFang> Bonus points tho

00:06 <ADragonDreaming> But mostly it's point 1)

00:07 <RazorSharpFang> Well yeah, but the wick does deteriorate over the burning process, though it's mostly the wax that burns.

00:11 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

00:11 <ADragonDreaming> hello

00:12 <Thelema5> What's new?

00:13 <ADragonDreaming> very little on my end

00:14 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 well check engine light on my dad's RAV4.

00:15 <Thelema5> Oh no!

00:15 <PinkieShy> Google says all the codes that appear means water in the vapor canister filter..

00:15 <Thelema5> That could mean nearly anything though, even a loose gas cap

00:15 <Thelema5> Ooh

00:16 <Thelema5> That doesn't sound too serious

00:17 <PinkieShy> I know the part is only $128 from amazon.. But repair shops don't usually want people to bring their own parts.. for a good reason too :P

00:20 <Thelema5> Yeah, they make a good profit from them

00:21 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 Scotty Kilmer on youtube says its because they don't know if the part will work, or if its from a good place.

00:22 *** Joins: Crimson_Tail (zeta@batpones.are.for.snuggles)

00:26 <Thelema5> Is he a mechanic?

00:26 <PinkieShy> Scotty Kilmer yea :P

00:26 <PinkieShy> Kinda famous on youtube it seems..

00:26 <PinkieShy> I'll link you to a vid :)

00:28 <Thelema5> So he's been a mechanic for 42 years, he probably has a reason to not mention his profit motive

00:29 <Thelema5> I don't know, I guess I'm just cynical about thus like that

00:29 <Thelema5> *stuff

02:39 <Shed-34046> Thelema5 the roof on this mobile home made me out to be a liar it seems :/

02:39 <Shed-34046> I don't like that..

02:39 *** Shed-34046 is now known as PinkieShy

02:40 <PinkieShy> The roof didn't leak during the hurricane but we just had a shower tonight.. and The Roof leaked onto the carpet.

02:40 <PinkieShy> I just told the landlord its not leaking anymore and it is..

02:42 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, oh no!

02:44 <PinkieShy> I'm mad..

02:44 <PinkieShy> How is it possible that with all the hurricane rains we got out here that it didn't leak into a bucket we had..

02:44 <PinkieShy> But this small rain shower we had tonight did...

02:44 <PinkieShy> This is confusing..

02:48 <Thelema5> Maybe the wind was blowing in a different direction

02:50 <Thelema5> Oh no, my daughter is using my netflix account while I am also... that means I'll have to watch Thai language Subtitles

03:05 <Thelema5> Ooh, after googleing a bit it's because I ate an hour earlier and the heart has to harder to fuel digestion.  Neat.

03:05 <Thelema5> My gut is working out

03:06 <ADragonDreaming> yeh

03:07 <Thelema5> This new watch is making me paranoid

03:19 * DashedRainbows licks Thelema5

03:20 * Thelema5 tastes like cheap frozen pizza again

03:21 <Thelema5> (I've been forcing myself to eat /something/, and that's cheap and easy

03:27 <DashedRainbows> you seem to be doing well-ish

03:31 <Thelema5> I'm following my psychologists orders

03:32 <Thelema5> Including making an appointment with a psychiatrist finally

03:32 <Thelema5> Honestly though, I'm just going through the motions. Forced myself to clean the house today and wash half of the dishes

03:33 <Thelema5> How are you?

03:34 <DashedRainbows> I'm ok-ish, feeling lonely, though less than you

03:36 * Thelema5 hugs

03:37 <Thelema5> An odd side effect of my recent breakup? I've reconnected with my sister and father.  We've been estranged for years, but they've both been checking in with me via text for the past few days.  Even had a pretty heartfelt conversation with my sister. She's genuninely concerned for my welfare.

03:38 <Thelema5> It's... actually really surprising.

03:39 <Thelema5> She even went so far as to say that she loves me. For like, the first time ever.

03:39 <Thelema5> It's little things like that that are keeping me going.  If anyone reading this ever has a chance to bolster someone feeling down, do it.

03:40 <Thelema5> Every little bit of support matters.  Like you guys here.

03:41 * DashedRainbows hugs Thelema5 back

03:47 <Thelema5> Okay, weird... in a show I'm watching they had a character known for his unattractive appearance get smooshed by a car, and after recover he's now a prettyboy. They made it a running gag. Why???

03:48 <Thelema5> I guess one could suggest something about our good deeds externalizing our greater character, yadda yadda yadda

03:51 <Thelema5> To be fair, he was unattractive when the super rich and attractive co-star fell in love with him for his ethics and charitable works... which transformed her own self identity and concept of love... but why not just leave it that way?

03:52 <Thelema5> True, he had just stood up to his family's misconduct as elite racists, and was on his own transformative path when suddenly, smoosh.

03:53 <Thelema5> Now he's reborn, like a butterfly from a caterpillar... I guess there's an metaphor in there after all.

03:53 <Thelema5> But, why so blatant, show?  A failed actor's contract?

03:57 <DashedRainbows> yup

04:03 <Thelema5> I, I see, now that the character is beautiful outside he's becoming a creep inside

04:03 <Thelema5> They're actually making a point

04:04 <RazorSharpFang> Usually when a big pathology runs in the family, even if one wants to rid themselves of it, there'll usually be echos of it for multiple generations.

04:04 <RazorSharpFang> The sins of the past are long dying.

04:05 <Thelema5> RazorSharp, are we talking about learned behaviors or genetics?

04:06 *** Joins: HyperDash (HyperDash@Pony-obvko9.wa.comcast.net)

04:12 <RazorSharpFang> Learned behaviours specifically negative, but it can also be things like trauma.

04:13 <Thelema5> Hmm/

04:13 <RazorSharpFang> For instance, children of alcoholics are more likely to drink themselves to death if their parents did.

04:59 <DashedRainbows> Hmm

05:00 <Thelema5> It's funny on the surface!

05:01 <PinkieShy> Well looks like i might have to give my mom a cease and desist order.. :/

05:02 <PinkieShy> She is bugging me and my dad blaming us for giving her dogs fleas by bring our dogs there to protect us and them (dogs) from hurricane.

05:02 <PinkieShy> and i told her all dogs get fleas.. and she said not her dogs..

05:02 <Thelema5> That doesn't seem like a very good reason for a S&D

05:03 <Thelema5> Dogs get fleas, it happens.  They're animals

05:04 <Thelema5> Get frontline. No reason for family strife.

05:05 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 she already has police reports on her.. From my brother

05:05 <Thelema5> That's nuts.

05:05 <PinkieShy> My brother and his wife asked her to stop bugging them with police calling her to warn her to to stop.

05:05 <Thelema5> Try to get along and let dumb stuff interfere

05:05 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 She made fun of their baby..

05:06 <PinkieShy> and said that because my brother did her wrong something might happen to.... you guessed it..

05:06 * DashedRainbows licks PinkieShy

05:07 <Thelema5> Guys, get over all this petty stuff, because know what it means to lose loved ones... and this petty stuff really doesn't matter in the long run. Get over it and learn to love one another

05:08 <Thelema5> *I

05:08 <DashedRainbows> How's the PinkieShy?

05:08 <PinkieShy> I'm okay.

05:08 <DashedRainbows> Truth

05:08 <Thelema5> Just be kind and help each other

05:08 <PinkieShy> how about you dashedRainbows

05:08 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 She even started to put blame on a dead family dog that died 2 months ago..

05:08 <DashedRainbows> Impatient

05:09 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, let it go and move on.

05:09 <Thelema5> People can be dumb

05:09 <Thelema5> Our reactions don't have to be

05:09 <DashedRainbows> I'm so impatient rn

05:10 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, because of the wait list?

05:10 <DashedRainbows> Yup

05:10 <Thelema5> Understandable. I'm sure I would be a wreck

05:10 <Thelema5> You're being a champ.

05:11 <DashedRainbows> Become organ donors kids

05:11 <Thelema5> I am, but my organs are probably trash

05:12 <DashedRainbows> Ic

05:12 <Thelema5> My heartrate is too fast, my bloodpressure is too high, my liver is probably close to necrosed...

05:12 <Thelema5> my kidneys are probably okay

05:13 <DashedRainbows> Hopefully

05:13 <Thelema5> I drink lots of fluids and haven't had any problems... they might be a bit fatty

05:13 * Thelema5 wishful thinking

05:14 <Thelema5> What other organs do people donate? I was a smoker for 20 years, so my lungs are probably out...

05:14 <DashedRainbows> I don't even mind the discomfort after surgery

05:15 <Thelema5> My eyes are okay, but I'm pretty nearsighted

05:15 <DashedRainbows> Pancreas

05:16 <Thelema5> I have no idea what my pancreas health might be.  What affects it?

05:16 <DashedRainbows> Idk

05:17 <DashedRainbows> I await a call at 4am

05:18 <Thelema5> Wow.

05:18 <Thelema5> Fingers crossed kinda call?

05:18 <DashedRainbows> I hope

05:20 <Thelema5> Can't you pop it by twisting it beyond it's usual limits?

05:20 <DashedRainbows> I've done that

05:20 <DashedRainbows> It ended in hospital for a week

05:20 <Thelema5> I crack my neck all the time, and my lower spine, and knuckles and elbows...

05:21 <Thelema5> it's a bad habit I guess, but it feels so good

05:21 <DashedRainbows> I mean ignoring things

05:21 <Thelema5> Ignoring body signals is usally not a good idea

05:22 <Schism> Cracking one's knuckles does not cause arthritis.  All it does is release some of the built-up joint tension.

05:22 * DashedRainbows brushes Thelema5's coat

05:23 <Thelema5> Schism, that's true, and why I continue to do it XD

05:23 <DashedRainbows> Hey Schism o/

05:26 <DashedRainbows> I have a red bump on my face which is how it started that one time.

05:27 *** Quits: Firestar (Android@You.Know.Who.It.Is) (Connection closed)

05:28 <Thelema5> Schism, you're a foodie of sorts... is there anything I can do (that you know of) to regain my hunger following a significant life change?

05:29 <Thelema5> My partner of 25 years left me a week ago and I've lost 6 pounds since because I have no desire to eat

05:30 <Thelema5> In the past week I think I've managed to force down a bowl of soup, some fries, and a cheap $.99 frozen pizza

05:30 <Thelema5> This is not enough

05:31 <Thelema5> I've no energy and my vitals are all over the place

05:31 <DashedRainbows> Try pepper maybe that's what my folks say

05:31 <Thelema5> Food just doesn;t seem appealing to me, for the first time in my life

05:33 <Thelema5> You have experience forcing eating when you're not hungry when under crisis- any helpful hints?

05:34 <DashedRainbows> Does chemo count? Just do it is the only advice I have.

05:35 <Thelema5> I've tried just forcing myself to eat, but it's a gross mechanical process

05:35 <DashedRainbows> At least you can keep food down

05:35 <Thelema5> True

05:36 <Thelema5> To be fair I've never once thrown up.  It's one of my claims to fame. but I've come closer this past week than ever

05:37 <DashedRainbows> Lies!

05:37 <DashedRainbows> Lol

05:38 <DashedRainbows> I lost count of mine. The chemo alone was horrible

05:38 * Thelema5 hugs

05:39 * DashedRainbows sniffs around

05:40 <Thelema5> For the record, after nearly a week of trying to mitigate it, the smell of dead mouse is gone from my house - at least as fa as I could tell

05:40 <Thelema5> *far

05:41 <DashedRainbows> Yay

05:41 <Thelema5> It's been pretty nasty up in here, but I cleaned and used a bunch of air fresheners which seem to have done the trick

05:42 <Thelema5> Also opened all the windows and ran a fan for two days

05:42 * DashedRainbows smells horse

05:44 <Thelema5> Aah crud, it's so late again...

05:44 <DashedRainbows> Just near 2

05:50 <Thelema5> +Yeah, but I have to be at work at 9:00

05:51 <Schism> Thelema5: I really don't know, to be honest.  Try to focus on making some actually good food for yourself?  Something that you'd actually want to eat under other circumstances?  I know it'll feel worthless to start, but it does help.

05:52 <DashedRainbows> You work at home but ic

05:52 <DashedRainbows> Glhf

05:52 <Thelema5> Hmm. That stuff would require cooking and planning- and I can't manage that at the moment. '

05:53 <Thelema5> I DID manage to do half of my dirty dishes tonight, but i can't keep producing them

05:54 * DashedRainbows sniffs Thelema5 and goes to bed

06:01 <Thelema5> G'night!

06:03 <Thelema5> The fun thing when you have no appetite is that calories are good!

06:07 <Thelema5> Can't force anything down today? Have a factory made frozen pizza with 2000 Cals and 15 grams of fat.  It's now totally on the menu. When I was a kid, there was a story on the news about a new kind of onion that was so sweet, you could eat it like an apple. Vidalia onions. My mom and I thought that was so cool. We didn't even wait to get home. We sat in the parking lot, and, on three, we each took a huge bite. And you know what they tasted like?

08:29 <Finwe> o3o

08:29 <Schism> Cheese popcorn makes sense!  Caramel popcorn makes sense!  The mixture of the two is not something I would ordinarily consider palatable.

08:30 <ConfusionRift> Popcorn 3 can.

08:31 <ConfusionRift> They USED to come in separate compartments. Now they have a plastic or paper divider, which they just remove and mix them together.

09:08 <Finwe> Koopz: Indeed, sounds weird.

09:08 <Schism> It is tasty!  A cheese -powder-, rather than melted cheese.  So it's salty and has lots of umami in it.

09:08 <Koopz> i'm a huge cheese fan though so i'm intrigued

09:09 <Finwe> The only orthodox way of serving popcorn is prepared in vegetable oil, seasoned with salt.

09:09 <Finwe> No heretic sugar, cheese or butter flavour.

09:27 <Unixkitty> Dog's joy?

09:28 <Finwe> In the Soviet era, there wasn't always enough meat to keep up with the sausage quotas, so they added some artificial substances in the sausages.

09:28 <Unixkitty> I suppose I must be missing what that applies to in this case

09:28 <Finwe> Even cellulose.

09:30 <Finwe> As the taste wasn't quite what people were accustomed to, it obviously were the dogs who then got the honour of finishing off the sausages.

09:30 <Finwe> That's why they were called "the dog's joy".

09:34 <Unixkitty> I see

09:35 <Unixkitty> It's definitely known that soviet kolbasa isn't the most healthy of it's kind, never heard the defined above term though

09:38 <Finwe> 'One of these additional additives was a substance that was also used to make toilet paper!!! So the expression “toilet-paper kolbasa” became popular at that time. People also called this cheap kolbasa made of who knows what sobachya radost (“the dog’s paradise”).'

09:45 <Schism> A similar term, in the English language, is a mishmash or collection of assorted crap, a 'dog's breakfast'.  This can also refer to a situation.

18:02 <CocoPommel> Do Canadians pronounce 'pasta' differently?

18:03 <CocoPommel> Cuz I was watching a Canadian cartoon and someone pronounced the 'A' like you would saying 'pan'

18:04 <CocoPommel> As opposed to pah-sta

18:06 <RazorSharpFang> Paystay.

18:36 <Cepheid> Hey ADra I'll be out earlier than I thought.  Might be able to MonHan tonight.  Depends on how long the build takes.

18:36 <Cepheid> Also I keep sending messages to the wrong places.  I'm glad I don't deal with spicy stuff a lot or at all.

19:07 <RazorSharpFang> I dunno, Pythag's a bit advanced for 9th grade

19:25 <Cepheid> Hey did you know that a to the power of x is equal to a * a * a * ... and so on.  That is, a multiplied by itself x times?

19:25 <Cepheid> Because we just learned what bloody exponentiation is.

19:25 <Cepheid> And what rational numbers are.

19:25 <Razor> Maybe you'd be better off deriving complex exponentiation.

19:26 *** Razor is now known as RazorSharpFang

19:26 <RazorSharpFang> Because complex exponentiation is always fun.

19:26 <RazorSharpFang> For instance, i ^ i is a real number.

19:26 <Cepheid> I know.

19:27 <Cepheid> Hey apparently pi, e and other such constants aren't ration- I give up I'm leaving this is stupid.

19:29 <RazorSharpFang> To be fair, they're moving reasonably fast

19:29 <RazorSharpFang> Before you know it, they'll be talking about integration by parts.

19:36 <Cepheid> Integration isn't covered in this class.

19:36 <Cepheid> I'm wishing I had received psychiatric evaluation before I registered for courses this semester.

19:37 <Cepheid> The only reason I took this course was because I thought that my failure in MATH2007(the next course after this one) was due to missing knowledge.

19:37 <Cepheid> Truth good it was because of general anxiety and panic attacks.

19:57 <Cepheid> And hey Ali.

19:57 <RazorSharpFang> Hey Ali. Doing assignments.

19:57 * SunsetShimmer flops on Ali!

19:57 * Ali splats under SunsetShimmer

19:58 <Cepheid> What's the assignment, Razor?

20:01 <RazorSharpFang> I have to edit the professors' application to their specs.

20:02 <RazorSharpFang> It's a basic tic-tac-toe game on android. They want it to change to a 5x5 when the device is rotated.

20:10 <Cepheid> They just don't add dependencies automatically anymore.  Probably because it is tricky to do so.

20:11 <RazorSharpFang> You know it's messed up when cleaning your build fails.

20:13 <Cepheid> Yeah that indicates a massive failure.

20:15 *** Quits: Reia (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony) (Quit: Bye)

20:15 <RazorSharpFang> It just added dependencies for something it auto-added which doesn't exist, so I have to remove.

20:18 <RazorSharpFang> Also, the app they sent me has TONNES of spelling mistakes.

20:26 <Cepheid> Professors slap stuff together haphazardly.

20:26 <Cepheid> I'd show you examples but the profs insist the assignments and such are school IP.  We can't share it.

20:27 <Cepheid> They do this so they can re-use assignments and course materials each semester.

20:28 <Cepheid> Which is hilarious to think about since the Profs have plenty of times to fix the mistakes and they still don't.

20:30 <Cepheid> Someone on this bus smells of mint or menthol.  Can't tell which.  I just know because it is making my eyes water.

20:52 * Cepheid arrives at home.

20:57 <Cepheid> I got a problem with this pre-build.

20:57 <Cepheid> Missing parts.

21:01 <Cepheid> Hey.

23:14 <Cepheid> ADragonDreaming:  We need to have a Nintendo Switch Online membership to play MHGU online now.

23:16 <ADragonDreaming> ...

23:17 <Cepheid> Yeah, I'm not too impressed either.

23:17 <ADragonDreaming> hmm...

23:17 <Cepheid> It's $40 for a year, apparently.  Includes cloud saving, among other things.

23:17 <ADragonDreaming> I refuse.

23:18 <Cepheid> Well so much for MHGU play then.

23:18 <Cepheid> Mmm.  Individual 12-month subscription is $25.

23:18 <ADragonDreaming> This is extortion.

23:18 <Cepheid> Good luck changing it.

23:19 <Ali> Its just like PS4's and Xbone's online

23:20 * ADragonDreaming is researching methods to use a VLAN instead.

23:20 <Ali> Nothing is free anymore, not even using the internet you already pay for to have to pay to use again.

23:22 <SunsetShimmer> It's worse, as the cloud saves are deleted once you stop sub'

23:22 <SunsetShimmer> PS4 and XB1 don't do that at all

23:22 <SunsetShimmer> well not to the extreme

23:23 <SunsetShimmer> you also can't access downloaded Nes games from the service, lol

23:23 <ADragonDreaming> I refuse to pay extra for something I already had.

23:23 <Cepheid> Gonna be some changes relatively quickly now that people are familiar with the system.

23:23 <ADragonDreaming> Let's just put it that way

23:23 <ADragonDreaming> They've removed a feature.

23:33 <Cepheid> 'Kay.

23:36 <ADragonDreaming> I might have been fine with it if it was required out of the gate

23:36 <ADragonDreaming> but since it wasn't

23:39 <Ali> Cepheid, I'd think I'd need RazorSharpFang on there too.  My mind is a bit scrambled as I've tried to solo play and failed so many times now.

23:49 <Cepheid> I'm amazed that purple cube event in Fortnite BR passed without any sort of incident.

23:49 <Cepheid> Besides what it did in the long run.

23:49 <Cepheid> I'm referring more to the technical aspects.  Easy to mess something like that up.

23:50 <Cepheid> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DndgQVFUYAMdDSK.jpg:large Especially something that lasts over 24 days, and people have TRACKED.

23:51 <RazorSharpFang> What, there's just this cube that moves slowly?

23:52 <Cepheid> Yeah.  A few months back, they had the rocket launch.  That created a "crack" in the sky.

23:52 <Cepheid> Apparently the cube popped out, land on the island, and since then, slowly rolled towards some unknown goal.

23:52 <Thelema5> Is it the borg?

23:52 <Cepheid> At some points, it'd stop, spend a full day "printing" something, then continue on.  Last people saw it, it descended into an iconic lake, and turned the lake into a bouncy purple surface.

23:53 <Thelema5> Probably not, then

23:55 <Schism> Fortnite has been... interesting.  Epic Games aren't my favourite company, but that has been rather remarkable to behold.
