00:00 <Lumindia> last time a major storm was in the area, I saw a tree limb break off and smash someone's car roof in
00:00 <Thelema5> O.o
00:00 <Thelema5> I hope they had insurance
00:00 <Lumindia> not even kidding, I was outside, and I heard this loud KRRAAAAKKK
00:00 <Lumindia> I whip my head around, and I witness the limb FALLING ON THE CAR
00:00 <Lumindia> I immediately noped the hell back inside

00:02 <Cepheid> That's... actually not that uncommon I find. Minor damage from storms like that.
00:02 <Cepheid> A few weeks before the tornados, we had a strong windstorm rip through Ottawa.
00:02 <Lumindia> I usually see the aftermath of it, but I've never seen it happen in front of my eyes
00:02 <Cepheid> It pulled down trees.

01:14 <Cepheid> An interesting observation. When I went downstairs to get some food, I remembered I had to clean the cat litter. I started panicking a tad, though. Care to guess why?
01:17 <Cepheid> Because I wasn't sure if I'd get to it in time with other tasks being set up. My memory is so bad that I am starting to worry if I'll even remember to do something before I finish my current task.

02:56 <PinkieShy> He crawled over to me and grabbed my beard.
02:56 <PinkieShy> Plus i think he said his first words

03:10 <DashedRainbows> which I'm also hyped to see this november
03:10 <Thelema5> Cool beans!
03:11 <DashedRainbows> given the transplant does not happen the week before
03:11 <DashedRainbows> I'd have such mixed emotions after surgery
03:11 <Thelema5> How long does it take to be released after?
03:11 <DashedRainbows> ofc a new kidney > all but...
03:12 <DashedRainbows> this friday so I can wait
03:12 * Thelema5 nods
03:13 <DashedRainbows> like I waited a year and it's on the exact week I planned for two years...
03:13 <DashedRainbows> which knowing my luck is what will happen
03:15 <Thelema5> Wouldn't be the worst thing in the world

03:26 <Thelema5> on the 11th
03:27 <Thelema5> I'm a bit stressed about it, i've not been to a doctor in 20 years
03:27 <Thelema5> also, its a private practice in the guys house. so kinda creepy
03:29 <DashedRainbows> whoa lol
03:30 <DashedRainbows> eh for me they go relatively smooth
03:30 * Thelema5 nods
03:31 <DashedRainbows> just disagree about the usefulness of the medication I'm on
03:31 <Thelema5> I hope mine does too. He's confiring with my psychologist beforehoof so hopefully that'll answer alot ot the preliminaries
03:32 <DashedRainbows> I'm of the mindset that it does nothing good for me and that my good mood is me improving my life
03:32 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, well yeah. A lot of people question the value of medications, which is a lot of why I'm apprehensive
03:33 <DashedRainbows> I would suggest TMS if your insurance will pay for it
03:33 <DashedRainbows> one month, but no meds if it works
03:34 <Thelema5> Hmm, I doubt there's any place around here that some that sort of advanced tech
03:34 <Thelema5> *that has
03:35 <DashedRainbows> true
03:36 <DashedRainbows> how far back are ya? do they still do lobotomies, avoid that
03:36 <Thelema5> lol
03:36 <Thelema5> Not quite that bad
03:37 <DashedRainbows> that's good
03:38 <DashedRainbows> keep in mind some of us would be dead (somehow) without medication

07:19 <PinkieShy> America is confusing as heck..
07:19 <PinkieShy> Why is this allowed https://i.ytimg.com/vi/EIh3UvlqZx4/maxresdefault.jpg but Kinder Surprise is banned.
07:22 <ConfusionRift> Because a kid choked with a Kinder, not with these. That's basically it. I know, it's dumb, but that's the jest of it. If another kid chokes on one of these, they will ban it as well.
07:23 <ConfusionRift> By the way, yes, I'm on your side 100%. :P
07:23 <Ali> ConfusionRift, it looks like its chocolate on the outside of a plastic container?
07:23 <Ali> Not sure if Kinder are like that or not.
07:24 <ConfusionRift> It was EXACTLY like that.
07:24 <ConfusionRift> It was a chocolate shell covering a plastic capsule.
07:24 <ConfusionRift> https://www.ocado.com/productImages/303/303883011_2_640x640.jpg?identifier=e33d015a0f1aea7ab672a7dac433d009
07:25 <ConfusionRift> Better example. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/11/Kinder_Surprise.png
07:26 <ConfusionRift> I ate these when I was a kid, and I had the intuition on not eating either the capsule or toy because they were obviously plastic.
07:27 <ConfusionRift> Oh well.
07:30 <Ali> Well apperently not everyone was raised not to eat plastic
07:30 <ConfusionRift> Same reason why they recalled and banned many awesome things. Like the early Magnetix, the Magnacube, the early Megatron transforming figure, and the GE BR30 LED lightbulb.
07:31 <ConfusionRift> The last two are different reasons, but same premise.
07:32 <Ali> Cause swallowing magnets is smart
07:32 <ConfusionRift> Yep!
07:34 <Emmis> owo
07:34 <Emmis> oh hey we had a lot of those kinder egg things back where i grew up
07:34 <ConfusionRift> Wait a sec. I know there was another chocolate candy that when imported to the US they package differently. It would be in a box instead, with the chocolate shell and capsule by themselves.
07:35 <ConfusionRift> So did I.
07:35 <ConfusionRift> It was awesome.
07:35 <Emmis> they still have them in mexico i think
07:35 <Emmis> :thinking:
07:35 <ConfusionRift> Yep, they do, which is funny.
07:35 <Emmis> weird thing i saw your pic and for some reason i could smell it
07:36 <Emmis> smell memory O ^ O
07:36 <ConfusionRift> I can go to the side shop near the border and get a single or a box of them and bring them here.

08:33 <ConfusionRift> Mondays indeed.
08:34 <Cepheid> Don't mess around with toner cartridges.
08:35 <Unixkitty> Wow.
08:38 <ConfusionRift> Oh yeah, our licensing system went off and EVERYONE was just 100% stomped as to what to do about it, aaaaand a customer was waiting on it as well. Turned it off, back on, and everything went back to normal. (sighs) I don't get how we got tech and the good majority don't know how it works.
08:41 <Schism> Wait, are you... is that Vanilla prepaid?
08:42 <Schism> Because that's the exact bug which I reported to the phone service, and I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they did.
08:43 <ConfusionRift> Hunting and fishing licensing.
08:43 * Schism also rolls over and boops Cepheid with some grilled zucchini.
08:43 <Schism> CR: That's... well. *fingers to brow* I guess that's why they pay you the big bucks.
08:43 <Cepheid> Technology is supposed to simplify our lives. Provided that the hardware and software involved are properly designed(They aren't a lot of the time), and that proper training on how to use the hardware and software is performed(It usually isn't.)
08:44 <Schism> I feel for Robert Heinlein. The man was writing about a wonderful future, and he wound up with the equivalent of cars driven by people who don't know how to turn a wheel.
08:45 <ConfusionRift> Where are my hoverboards?!
08:45 <Schism> ConfusionRift, if it makes you feel any better, Cepheid's cats know how to walk through walls.
08:45 <Cepheid> I'm kind of surprised that anyone even thought that self-driving cars was even remotely safe.
08:46 <ConfusionRift> There's a reason why they have human co-pilots for them.
08:46 <Cepheid> I'm not a psychologist, but even I could see people becoming so lazy and complacent that they start doing other stuff when they should be keeping an eye on the situation.
08:47 <Schism> If they don't see it, then it's not happening.
08:47 <Cepheid> We can't even get people to stop looking at their phones *WHILE* driving.
08:47 <ConfusionRift> Then again, if the moron is distracted watching movies on NetFlix, same automated car can wind up hitting an old man... taking his life.
08:47 <Cepheid> You take away the perceived need to pay attention, and people will use that time to look at their phones or do work on a laptop, or heavens forbid, cook pancakes in a car.
08:48 <Schism> USB skillet. ISAGN.
08:48 <ConfusionRift> That's a very infuriating aspect of both all my co-workers and my cousins.
08:48 <Unixkitty> It's all because there is no longer natural selection in the usual sense, Cepheid
08:49 <Cepheid> And self-driving cars would defy it anyways.
08:49 <Schism> The laws against drunk driving, driving while texting, driving while distracted et al... I wouldn't mind their removal, if it didn't also eliminate several other folks from the gene pool.
08:49 <Cepheid> The cars are more likely to diverge and hit pedestrians.
08:49 <Schism> That.

08:50 <ConfusionRift> Pffffttt.
08:50 <Schism> I like that episode.
08:51 <Cepheid> The thing that gets me though is that people keep doing stuff so blatantly, despite the fines involved.
08:51 <ConfusionRift> Homer is basically broke, and yet he got a car lighter ice cream machine. Why isn't a home one? :P
08:52 <Schism> Darnit. I have an egg pan, I want to use it, and... the grocer's opens up in a few hours, and until then I won't have any sausage and cheese.
08:52 <ConfusionRift> Cepheid: Yep. That's basically how it works.
08:53 <ConfusionRift> But Celestia forbid YOU do it. They would catch you immediately.
08:53 <Schism> "Screw you, I've got mine."
08:53 * ConfusionRift grumbles. "Story of my life."
08:53 <Cepheid> My dad was almost fined for something stupid.
08:53 <Schism> Heaven forfend a revision of the whole damn system.
08:54 <Cepheid> He pulls up to an intersection. Has a hangnail, so while waiting for the light to change, he starts playing with it to try and get rid of it. He has his hands up in front of his face.
08:54 <Cepheid> When all of a sudden, a cop pops out from behind a lightpole to his right.
08:54 * Filly_Nightmares nestles on Schism
08:54 * Filly_Nightmares whines
08:54 <Cepheid> Cop had the widest grin on his face, up until my dad spread noticed the cop, spread his hands, and showed what was going on.
08:54 <Cepheid> The cop then slinked back behind the pole, embarassed.
08:54 * Schism boops the Filly_Nightmares wif a bowl of stew! It has tomatoes, mushrooms, and zucchini, as well as slices of beef!
08:56 * Filly_Nightmares eees happily at Schism!
08:56 <Schism> Hm. I should slice up that zucchini that's in the fridge, and sautee the stuff.
08:56 * Filly_Nightmares lick lick lick lick licks the stew and nom nom nom nom nomfs!
08:56 * Filly_Nightmares floofs up and snugglies against Schism tum! She is warms!

08:57 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares
08:57 * Schism patpatpats, and wraps Filly_Nightmares in warm blankets. Also, hrms. "Darnit. I really want to play Opus Magnum, but it's not on sale."
08:57 * Filly_Nightmares purrs and brings Schism into the warms!
08:57 <ConfusionRift> Uncle goes at 155MPH on a 60MPH zone, gets caught by a sheriff, gets moved to the back, talks for a bit, gets back in the car, and leaves unscathed. Cousin gets stopped because one of the brake lights is bad, and get fined.
08:57 <Cepheid> Cyanide and Happiness today accurately depicts how I feel about the Internet right now.
08:57 * Schism is not asleepy, though. So cannot nap with Filly_Nightmares.
08:58 * Filly_Nightmares uses Schism as a bed! She purrs and makes her nest of blankies on top of him!
08:58 <Schism> Cepheid: seems about right.
08:58 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift: ... Okay, you know what? The cop that handled your Uncle should be investigated for bribery at that point.
08:59 <Schism> This is... more or less how I handle my laundry. http://maximumble.thebookofbiff.com/2018/09/28/1809-laundry/

09:00 <RazorSharpFang> Heyas
09:00 <RazorSharpFang> Just got back from uni.
09:00 <Cepheid> I am incapable of lying. It shows too much if I even try.
09:00 <Cepheid> And hey RazorSharpFang.
09:00 <Schism> The fine and wonderful art of BS'ing.
09:01 <Schism> (It stands for 'bullshot'.)
09:01 <ConfusionRift> It's not necessarily about lying. It's more about talking your way out of something with absolutely nothing.
09:01 <RazorSharpFang> I think you mean lying consistently, Ceph.
09:01 <RazorSharpFang> Sorry, convincingly.
09:01 <ConfusionRift> But yeah, the usual norm is lying your way out.
09:01 <Cepheid> Fair enough.
09:01 <Schism> Never said lying, here. In fact, a good BS never tells an abject lie.
09:01 <RazorSharpFang> Lying by omission?
09:01 <Cepheid> But yeah, I'm incapable of lying convincingly.
09:02 <Schism> And by talking around, yeah.
09:02 <Cepheid> So I just don't do it.
09:02 <RazorSharpFang> "Sally and I went to the shop yesterday." - But She went to the shops with 3 people.
09:02 <Cepheid> Only issue is, turns out people would rather I lie, sometimes.
09:02 <Schism> Never tell an absolute lie. People know it, they /see/ it, and when you're caught, it's harder to talk your way out.
09:02 <Schism> There are only two ways to lie artfully.
09:03 <Schism> First, you tell the truth -- but not all of it.
09:03 <Schism> Second, you tell the whole truth, but in such a way that nobody will believe it.

09:04 <Cepheid> The problem is that I tend to squirm or feel uncomfortable when I lie, so it pretty much becomes apparent right from the start.
09:04 <RazorSharpFang> I'm not having much luck with my connection today.
09:04 <ConfusionRift> Charisma and confidence take play in this.
09:05 <ConfusionRift> It makes barter easier and... oh wait, wrong thing. It still plays a role in the whole aspect on "talking your way out/in".
09:06 <Cepheid> I find being honest tends to be more rewarding. People will trust you more. On the other hand..
09:07 <Cepheid> I have been privvy to details of people's lives that I'd have preferred I didn't hear about.
09:07 <RazorSharpFang> As long as you don't hit a painpoint.
09:07 <Cepheid> Imagine being 16 years old, and a 30-something-year-old woman starts confiding in you how she wants to divorce her husband.
09:07 <Cepheid> This actually happened.
09:08 <Schism> Direction-face.
09:08 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid, I ... cannot connect to the server. Something's wrong with the connection.
09:08 <Schism> Cepheid: I cannot walk into a store without people asking me where certain products are.
09:09 <Schism> Some folks can't go around without having others ask them, "Hey, where's X street?"
09:09 <RazorSharpFang> I think I see what's wrong, I'm getting pretty heavy packet loss.
09:09 <Schism> Myergh, RSF.
09:09 <Schism> (That's 'direction-face.' Where your face is evidently one which people think will give them directions.)
09:10 <RazorSharpFang> Pings of 400ms now.
09:10 <Cepheid> Geezus.
09:10 <Schism> The Australian ISPs really need to get their act together.
09:10 <RazorSharpFang> Either that, or the canadian ISPs. You know, Rogers.
09:10 <Schism> Oh, both do.
09:11 <Schism> AND THE GOVERNMENT thankyouverymuch. Well, governments.
09:11 <ConfusionRift> Cepheid: Had some conversations like that... at work. Uuurgh. (shudders) Some get weird.
09:11 <RazorSharpFang> Oof, based on the trace-route it might be an issue between Australia and Canada.
09:11 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe America?
09:11 <Cepheid> My connection appears to be fine. I could try rebooting the server, though.
09:11 <Cepheid> And the connection.
09:11 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid, try pinging 202.7.180.125 - this is my ISP's public first-hop.
09:12 <Cepheid> http://www.speedtest.net/result/7686863016.png And this is on wifi.
09:12 <Cepheid> Averages about 300-400ms
09:12 <RazorSharpFang> Get any packet loss?
09:12 <Schism> <Divide> Specialization is for insects. <Shamrock> ... y-- <Divide> Yes, I know.
09:12 <Cepheid> Nope.
09:12 <Cepheid> Oh, wait.
09:13 <Cepheid> Nope. I misread.
09:13 <Cepheid> No packet loss, 29 packets sent.
09:14 <RazorSharpFang> Pffft. I'm getting packet loss before I even leave the 202.7.0.0 /16 subnet
09:14 <Cepheid> There is definitely something going on though. Response times kept climbing for a few seconds there, exceeding 600ms.
09:14 <Cepheid> So routing issues somewhere in Australia.
09:14 * ConfusionRift noms on some oddly placed packets.
09:15 * Cepheid goes and makes a coffee.
09:16 <RazorSharpFang> It's probably TPG screwing with me again
09:16 <Cepheid> Also, Schism, while I'm sure that getting reliable ISPs in Australia would help, due to the great distances involved, I'm not sure it'd help as much as you'd think.
09:17 <RazorSharpFang> MFW I see "Razorsharpfang was dropped from the game" in the in-game chat
09:18 <RazorSharpFang> I don't think Factorio is happening for me today.
09:18 <Cepheid> At least right now, anyway.
09:18 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmm. (thinks)
09:18 <Cepheid> Might improve in an hour's time.
09:18 <RazorSharpFang> Apparently I can't access Twitter either.
09:19 <Cepheid> Now, were it a few days ago..
09:19 <Cepheid> I'd argue it was likely me.
09:19 <RazorSharpFang> I can ping my ISP's first-hop with a reliable 8..11 ms ping, but leaving my ISP's subnet causes immediate latency increases and packet loss. Coincidence?
09:19 <Cepheid> I noticed a few issues with my Internet the other evening, but they've since resolved themselves.
09:20 <Schism> Oh, Cepheid. Do you want a copy of Momodora: Reverie?
09:20 <Cepheid> Already own it.
09:20 <Schism> Oh, kaykay.
09:21 <RazorSharpFang> I should play league of legends on this connection. I can only see good things happening.
09:21 <Cepheid> At least your excuse would be valid.
09:21 <Cepheid> Compared to 99% of cases where it isn't.
09:21 <Unixkitty> Hahaha wow https://kotaku.com/witcher-author-threatens-cd-projekt-red-with-legal-acti-1829465193
09:22 <Cepheid> For gods sake, Spitfire, stop eating stuff off the floor.
09:22 <Cepheid> Unixkitty: Saw that. Wondered how he thought that would even work.
09:22 <Unixkitty> So, I guess Article 44 of Poland's copyright law apparently
09:22 <Schism> Hm. Well, demanding more royalties makes sense, but the ridiculous amount is something else.
09:23 <Unixkitty> It's not ridiculous, 6% of the profits
09:23 <Schism> Hrm, actually... that's a decent amount.
09:24 <Cepheid> Legally, it seems to be valid.
09:24 <Cepheid> Morally, it seems corrupt.
09:24 <Cepheid> As it seems to basically ignore the contract that was specified.
09:25 <Cepheid> But then it's not uncommon to find loopholes in contracts to earn or save money, so... *Shrugs*
09:26 <Cepheid> Spitfire, please stop doing that.
09:26 <Unixkitty> Clearly he still doesn't think the games are "stupid" anymore
09:26 <RazorSharpFang> I love how applications sit on "ETA: 0 minutes" for 10 minutes or more.
09:28 * Schism was looking to buy Opus Magnum, but was a little put off by its price. Then he looked at the Humble Bundle.
09:28 <Schism> Opus Magnum, SOMA, LISA, and a handful of others... damnit.
09:29 <Cepheid> Heh.
09:29 * Cepheid needs to remember to ask his father where his mini screwdriver set is.
09:29 * Cepheid is getting annoyed at the clicking sound from laptop case.
09:30 <Cepheid> Loose screws on the case, gotta love 'em.
09:31 <Cepheid> So, the thing about black cats.
09:31 <Cepheid> Well, this applies to solid-colour cats.
09:32 <Cepheid> The thing about 'em? Various body parts blend in with the rest of their body, especially under poor lighting.
09:32 <Cepheid> Right now, Spitfire's loafing. It looks like he has no tail, because the tail is curled around his feet while he loafs. It blends right in with his body.
09:33 <RazorSharpFang> Oof, it might just be that Australia's connection to the rest of the world is sucky.
09:33 * Filly_Nightmares yawnskrees and sleepies on Schism
09:33 <Filly_Nightmares> Nini!
09:33 * Filly_Nightmares hugs Cepheid like a plushie!
09:33 *** Filly_Nightmares is now known as Sleeping_Nightmares
09:33 <Cepheid> What're they using? Twine and cans to connect the continents?
09:34 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe it's two Yagi antennas on two tall houses.
09:34 <ConfusionRift> It's actually nylon and Solo cups. :P
09:34 <Cepheid> ... So that's what those antennas are called.
09:35 <Unixkitty> Cepheid: https://twitter.com/Kekeflipnote/status/1039588319225634816?s=19
09:35 <RazorSharpFang> I learned that in Wireless networking this semester.
09:35 <Cepheid> Seen it, Unixkitty. Linked it twice in here in the past. :P Adorable, though.
09:35 <RazorSharpFang> I'm getting a solid consistent 60 ms ping to league, so it's probably the international lines that are having trouble.
09:36 <Cepheid> And a good example of what solid-color cats are like.
09:36 <Unixkitty> Appropriate :P
09:36 * Schism boops the Ali with a Spacechem.
09:38 * Unixkitty whispers to Schism: "Ali is not online"
09:38 <Cepheid> But yeah, the black/white/etc colouring blends so well it can lead to weird optical illusions. Looking at a cat from the right perspective can remove all sense of depth.

09:41 <Cepheid> It's more hilarious when they're on something the same colour.
09:41 <Cepheid> So black-on-black, white-on-white and so on. Sometimes they blend in with the object under certain lighting conditions.
09:41 <Cepheid> The end-result is that suddenly your ottoman has eyes.
09:41 <Cepheid> Or comforter starts meowing.
09:42 <Cepheid> And then of course, the no-light situations. That wall has eyes all of a sudden.
09:43 <Cepheid> http://a.co/d/6fC89MQ Someone buy this for me.

09:52 <Schism> Doing things on a hex grid is... different.
09:59 <ConfusionRift> "You were the one who suggested me to try to hold on some silver and gold, and you also suggested on a recognizable form. Like a coin, just like this one! Brought silver, rejoice!" | But it's not silver. | "Okay, Mr. Wise Guy. How can you prove it's not-" | (tosses a magnet towards the coin, it immediately sticks to it) That's steel. | "...(bleep)!!!"
10:06 <Schism> Where exactly did your characters get magnetized iron?
10:07 * ConfusionRift is stared at. "...eeeeerm... magiiiiiccc!" Does the whole magician dance.
10:07 <Schism> Lodestone is freakin' expensive, try again.
10:07 <Cepheid> Some variants of steel are magnetic.
10:08 <Schism> I know, but medieval society, you get folks going 'ooh, magnets, how do they work?'
10:09 <Schism> Okay, so I know there's an easier way to make this salt water...
10:09 <ConfusionRift> Hahahaaaa! I can already see the whole "you do know that little metal piece that sticks to other metals and tossed away worthed more than an ounce of silver" thing.
10:10 <Schism> Yeah, and a spyglass costs like a thousand gold pieces.

10:16 <ConfusionRift> Not sure if you remember, there was this sorta story that I was gonna try to write, which followed some tabletop RPG rules (which I haven't even started yet). I was thinking on using the theme of a character that was send to another time, space, or world. The initial point was going to be a somewhat medieval land. Now, since the character was ported there, he/she would probably have certain "artifacts" from back
10:16 <ConfusionRift> home. These would vary depending on the character's origin point.
10:17 <ConfusionRift> One of them was gonna be a scout, so a magnet was going to be a probable choice.

10:29 * Cepheid applies an n^2 algorithm to RazorSharpFang.
10:29 <Schism> ... I hate the fact that SpaceChem, Shenzhen I/O, Opus Magnum et al. compare your scores to your friends'.
10:29 <Unixkitty> Gahh, there's a large wasp somewhere in my office!
10:29 <Schism> Because now I'm going 'how the BLAZES did you DO that?!'.
10:30 * Schism ees! Provides Unixkitty with a flamethrower.
10:30 <Unixkitty> Worst of all, it's just hidden somewhere as I was trying to shoo it out the window
10:31 <Unixkitty> Now I'm afraid to sit here and touch anything...
10:31 <Schism> Flaaaamethrower. But yeeesh...
10:31 <Cepheid> Schism: Yeah, that's the thing that keeps me from playing those games. Makes me feel incompetent.
10:31 <Schism> Cepheid: I'unno. Kinda makes me feel like I need to figure something out, like there's something at the tip of my brain that I'm just not quite getting.
10:32 <Cepheid> Mind you, part of it is having access to a greater array of tools and such later in the game. SHENZEN I/O is known for this.
10:32 <Schism> Yeah, that one is... well, it's evil. It puts it right there in the manual. In Chinese.
10:32 <Cepheid> Also, there's the issue that in a lot of cases, the different scores are results of different algorithms.
10:32 <Cepheid> There are algorithms that are great for speed, but large.
10:32 <Cepheid> There are algorithms that are small, but slow.
10:32 <Schism> Yup. The fastest, the cheapest, the smallest.
10:33 <Cepheid> Aye.
10:33 <Unixkitty> Guh
10:33 * Unixkitty hides under ConfusionRift
10:33 <Cepheid> TIS-100 taught me that in regards to the scoring thing.
10:33 <Cepheid> I've seen Googie's scores on some of those games in the early puzzles, and it just... it depresses me at times. :P
10:33 <Schism> Like, right now, I'm going for the smallest solutions. If I wanted to be REALLY quick, I could probably solve these with a huge outlay.
10:33 <Schism> I knooooow.
10:34 <Cepheid> To achieve some of the scores, you have to put aside your general preference for decent algorithms.
10:34 <Cepheid> Which can potentially mean implementing an algorithm with factorial growth.
10:34 <Cepheid> Which no sane programmer would ever do.
10:35 <Cepheid> Being size conscious is one thing, but dropping yourself to the level of using an n-factorial algorithm is madness.
10:35 <Cepheid> Unless the numbers are small.
10:35 <Schism> They tend to be in games like these, but yes. Using that many cycles, eeeeeh...
10:36 * Finwe unleashes a swarm of hornets into Unixkitty's office.
10:36 <Cepheid> There's only really one form of algorithm that performs worse than n-factorial.
10:36 <Cepheid> An algorithm that never completes.
10:37 <Unixkitty> Madness
10:37 <Unixkitty> Why would you do that, Finwe?
10:37 <Cepheid> Personally if Finwe did that to me, I would legitimately hit him. No offense man, I just don't like stinging insects, no matter how peaceful or aggressive.
10:38 <Finwe> Wasps are quite okay compared to hornets.
10:38 <Cepheid> Aggravating a phobia like that is going to put me in an extremely high-stress mental state. I will hit you for it. Not sure WHERE, but I'd make sure it wouldn't be obvious.
10:38 <Finwe> Luckily there are no hornets this far north.
10:38 <Cepheid> So I'd probably like, go for the shoulder or something.
10:39 <Unixkitty> I am afraid of them all, so it matters little to me :P
10:39 <Cepheid> Finwe: Apparently this algorithm I'm reading calls itself a Euclidean-Distance Mapping Function, but arguably it isn't entirely truly Euclidean-Distance.
10:39 <Unixkitty> Well, except bees I suppose
10:39 * ConfusionRift moved Unixkitty away from her office, before promptly nuking the wasps.
10:39 <Cepheid> It uses approximations based on known properties and parameters of circles.
10:39 * Finwe patpatsnuggles Unixkitty.
10:39 <Cepheid> And symmetry.
10:41 <Unixkitty> I'm just going to hope it flew out the window when I've had it open...
10:41 <Cepheid> I don't know why I have a fear of all stinging critters.
10:41 <Cepheid> I was never really stung a lot as a child, or anything of the like. No traumatic experiences. In fact, the closest thing to traumatic I can think of was the time I got bit by a blackfly.
10:42 <Cepheid> And the only reason that was even remotely troublesome for me was because I had to endure the pain until I could put my laptop down.
10:43 <Unixkitty> I've never been bitten by anything larger than a horsefly, but that doesn't make me hate any remotely dangerous insect with utter disgust
10:43 <Cepheid> Outside of that, nothing I can think of. I see bees, wasps, and inexplicably, dragonflies, and I immediately move to keep my distance such that they don't notice me.
10:43 <Unixkitty> Any less*
10:44 <ConfusionRift> It's odd. I'm not exactly afraid of them. Heck, I used to catch bees when I was a kid. Why? They didn't let me catch lizards at school.
10:44 <Cepheid> All sorts of critters like bees, hornets, wasps and the like have this inexplicable behaviour of following me and hovering around me.
10:44 <ConfusionRift> I did get attacked by a swarm of bees, twice.
10:44 <Finwe> Fear of arachnids, stinging insects and whatnot is just good for your survival.
10:44 <Cepheid> As if they're confused about what I am, and trying to figure it out.
10:44 <Cepheid> It is extremely distressing, seeing a bee hovering a few inches from your body, not landing, and following you around so as to keep within a few inches.

10:50 <Cepheid> Unixkitty: I think it looks fine. The way it's oriented does give the impression of a space ship though. No, the one that confuses me is the Microsoft one.
10:50 <Finwe> My assumption only applies to your real world budget.
10:50 <Cepheid> That looks like something I'd see out of a modern-day version of Tempest, on a mobile device.

12:45 <Cepheid> Annoyingly I think a part of the problem is that this document doesn't describe some details.
12:55 <Finwe> Cepheid: i and j are sometimes used for the base vectors x_1 and x_2.
12:55 <Finwe> x and y are usually the coordinates.
12:56 <Finwe> So, any vector v in Euclidean 2-space could be written as v = xi + yj.
13:06 <Finwe> Then v would correspond to the element (x,y) of the product space R x R.
13:07 <Finwe> Or C x C in case of complex space, but I think that in case of Euclidean spaces the scalar field is usually assumed to be reals.

21:02 <LibrarianofHope> no more politics, youll wake the elder mod gods
21:03 <Cepheid> The entirety of Twitter would immediately, within minutes, shut down and be inaccessible due to a number of DDoS attacks.
21:03 <Cepheid> Not just one attack.
21:03 <Cepheid> MULTIPLE attacks.
21:03 <Thelema5> That alert made me practically jump out of my skin. Same tone used to alert of impending local emergencies
21:03 <Schism> Originating from Russia.
21:03 <Schism> (Well, I presume.)
21:03 <Cepheid> Schism: Russia, USA, all over the world, really.
21:03 <Cepheid> Point is, neither account can be banned if Twitter wishes to remain functional for the foreseeable future.
21:03 <Schism> Indeed.
21:04 <LibrarianofHope> happy not being in the us
21:04 * LibrarianofHope does coca cola dance
21:04 <Schism> Thelema5: This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test...
21:04 <Cepheid> I'm a tad perturbed being as close as I am to the US, to be honest.
21:05 <LibrarianofHope> im nice and cozy, smack center of the continent
21:05 * Schism sips his Pepsi.
21:05 <LibrarianofHope> bepis yay
21:05 * LibrarianofHope does bepis dance
21:05 <Thelema5> Cepheid, soon this dark period in american history will be over- or at least in perpetual deadlock
21:05 <LibrarianofHope> this is not a test, after the woof, the puppies will be relesead
21:06 <LibrarianofHope> for 8 hours, all cuddles will be fluffy
21:06 <Thelema5> National "register to vote day" saw an unprecedented turnout, with more than 800,000 people registering in one day. Midterms are coming up
21:06 <LibrarianofHope> the woofurge, puppy year
21:07 <LibrarianofHope> its 3 years to go no?
21:07 <LibrarianofHope> not really feeling reelction chances here
21:08 <Cepheid> Coffee social going on for the CCSS tomorrow. Wondering if I should go, scare a few of the new mindless drones.
21:09 <Thelema5> Aww, poor things
21:09 <Cepheid> The stories I tell aren't that bad.
21:09 <Thelema5> heh
21:09 <LibrarianofHope> i dont believe you
21:09 <Cepheid> Nah, I'm more concerned about them being caught by some of the other 4th-year students there.
21:10 <LibrarianofHope> im scared
21:10 <Cepheid> A group of those students is particularly vicious.
21:10 <LibrarianofHope> its like a raiders of the lost ark thing
21:10 <LibrarianofHope> faces melting
21:10 <LibrarianofHope> ahhh
21:10 <Cepheid> To the point of waiting for them to disappear, then going up to the student they bugged, and telling them that a lot of what they said was just [REDACTED] and that they shouldn't take it seriously.
21:11 <Cepheid> They(Other people, that is) aren't kidding when they say CS students are evil.
21:11 <Cepheid> Some of them are just downright malicious vultures that prey on watching the 1st and 2nd year students freak out.

21:16 <Cepheid> There's like, only a select few of us who don't go after the students, and also work to keep things sensible in the Lounge. And unfortunately, they include me, a person with severe mental illnesses, a person who got hit by a car and suffered a concussion, a blind person, and two women who, last I understand, have already graduated and have no real reason to stick around.

21:19 <Thelema5> *emphathy
21:19 <LibrarianofHope> they hassle people?
21:19 <Thelema5> Jezz
21:19 <Cepheid> Nah.
21:19 <Cepheid> This group of people keeps the 3rd and 4th years under control.
21:20 <LibrarianofHope> give them beer, tends to calm them down
21:20 <Cepheid> Every semester, those groups like to show up to lounge to scare the 1st and 2nd year students. They also show up at coffee socials for the same reason.
21:20 <LibrarianofHope> scare how?
21:20 <LibrarianofHope> thats my confusion
21:21 <Cepheid> Tell students how hard some courses are, talk about how difficult some professors are, how poorly they'll be marked, etc, etc, etc.
21:21 <LibrarianofHope> thtas standard no?
21:21 <Cepheid> It is, but we don't like it happening.
21:21 <LibrarianofHope> by no means nice
21:21 <Cepheid> So we usually try to curtail it when it does happen.
21:21 <LibrarianofHope> good idea

21:43 <Schism> Sound thing?
21:44 <ADragonDreaming> Sometimes, if I close my laptop so that it goes to sleep while I have headphones plugged in, then when I open it back up, it fails to play any sound.
21:45 <Schism> Hrmm. Until you reseat the headphones, I take it?
21:45 <ADragonDreaming> I remember that not working. let me try though

22:04 <Cepheid> What is it with people and having conversations in the most inconvenient way and in the worst possible places?
22:04 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Silver Quill: Let's Review: MLP #71 [ http://tinyurl.com/y8ymoe6g ]
22:04 <Cepheid> On the way home, walking down Page road, I look ahead.
22:04 <LibrarianofHope> comedic timing
22:04 <Cepheid> There's a couple of vehicles parked on the sidewalk ahead of me.
22:04 <Cepheid> So I go up to them.
22:04 <Cepheid> There's people in both vehicles. They have their cars parked on the sidewalk, and are having a conversation through the windows.
22:05 <Cepheid> One's in a ford pickup, the other's in some sort of van.
22:05 * Sleeping_Nightmares skrees at LibrarianofHope
22:05 <LibrarianofHope> side by side?
22:05 <Cepheid> Yeah.
22:05 <Cepheid> On the sidewalk.
22:05 <LibrarianofHope> might be bunch of reasons
22:05 <Cepheid> Engines are running, and they're just yaking away.
22:05 <Cepheid> Nah.
22:05 <Cepheid> They were just having typical "Hey, how's the family doing?" type conversations.
22:06 <LibrarianofHope> thats nice
22:06 <Cepheid> Talking about how their kids are doing, the family is doing, work, etc.
22:06 <LibrarianofHope> incoveniently nice
22:06 * LibrarianofHope shakes the eeee jar
22:06 <LibrarianofHope> shake before eeeeing
22:06 <Cepheid> I stopped, looked at both of them with a "What the eff?" expression.
22:06 <LibrarianofHope> thtas nothing, last saturday i saw a bunch of children open meeling in the park
22:06 <Cepheid> They just looked at me like I was committing a crime. As I walked by I reminded them that the sidewalk is not a parking lot or a driveway.
22:07 <Cepheid> In not so kind, polite words.
22:07 <LibrarianofHope> like fist fighting
22:07 <Schism> Remember, LibrarianofHope, do not bring your children to the dog park, which does not exist.
22:07 <LibrarianofHope> my dogs are my children
22:07 <Schism> Dogs are not allowed in the nonexistent dog park.
22:08 <LibrarianofHope> are librarians allowed?
22:08 <Schism> Only on days that don't end in 'y'.
22:08 <LibrarianofHope> i do speak spanish you know
22:08 <LibrarianofHope> miercoles ends with s

22:14 <Schism> Pineapple is perfectly fine on pizza.
22:14 * Thelema5 flaillyhooves
22:14 <Schism> And ketchup is best on cheap, 10-in-a-pack beef/pork hot dogs, along with sweet pickle relish, weak yellow mustard, and American cheese... on a white bun.
22:15 <Schism> That's if you're not just going to have Cheez Whiz, of course.
22:15 <ADragonDreaming> If I'm having, like, a high quality sausage in a bun, like a bratwurst or something of that nature, I go for sauerkraut and mustard.

22:17 <Thelema5> Buffalo chicken pizza is good
22:17 <Thelema5> XD
22:17 * Schism also offers LibrarianofHope a glass of spicy Clamato.
22:17 <LibrarianofHope> i like that
22:17 <Schism> It is good!
22:17 * ADragonDreaming ponders size of area.
22:17 <LibrarianofHope> with mineral water
22:17 <LibrarianofHope> im not much for booze
22:18 <LibrarianofHope> we call em come back to life mixes
22:18 <Schism> It doesn't need vodka, but it does need to be over ice.
22:18 <Thelema5> Starlight_Glimmer, the "american cheese is mostly oil" myth is really a marketing gimmick. The #1 brand of american cheese, Kraft, contains NO vegetable oils. Same for the number 2, and 3... etc.
22:18 <LibrarianofHope> based on a seafood mizture used for hanover ecovery
22:18 <Schism> And yes, spicy tomato juice is excellent for waking up.
22:18 <Thelema5> It's only the most awful generic cheap american cheese that does
22:19 <Starlight_Glimmer> Thelema5: I'm trolling, it's O.K. ;)
22:19 <LibrarianofHope> dont troll the thelema, he likes foods
22:19 <Thelema5> "kay
22:19 <Starlight_Glimmer> At least you get proper milk based ice cream over there
22:19 <Thelema5> I do, i do!
22:20 <LibrarianofHope> what was the bug poop crust cheese?
22:20 <Starlight_Glimmer> This is actually somewhat of an issue
22:20 <LibrarianofHope> i saw something like that on tv once
22:20 <Starlight_Glimmer> And people - because they're silly - don't realize the industry is using substitutes
22:21 <LibrarianofHope> im 100% hope filled
22:21 <LibrarianofHope> accept no substitutes
22:23 <Starlight_Glimmer> Also people around here make a big deal out of chicken in the U.S. being treated with chlorine and fail to understand that this is actually a reasonable procedure
22:23 <Starlight_Glimmer> Like they swim in chlorine treated water, but it can't touch their chicken! *facehoofs*
22:27 * Schism noms on another glass of the clamato, and also has a few bites of cheddar cheese.
22:27 <Thelema5> It seems silly, but it's a needed step to combat an otherwise horribly under-regulated meat industry. Those chicken breasts are literally swimming in feces before being decontaminated with chlorine
22:28 <Thelema5> Salmonella is not your friend. Kill is with chlorine
22:28 <Thelema5> *it
22:29 <DashedRainbows> I have a secret..
22:29 <Thelema5> Do you worship the devil?
22:29 <DashedRainbows> I feel ppl are gonna hate me or think I'm dumb
22:29 * Thelema5 facehoofs... really, really, REALLY outdated movie reference
22:29 <DashedRainbows> ofc not
22:29 * DashedRainbows also facehooves
22:30 <Thelema5> Anyone who gets teh reference get 10 cool points, though
22:30 <DashedRainbows> I'm against GMOs on the fact that we know little on genetics
22:31 <DashedRainbows> not heavily against just prefer not
22:31 <DashedRainbows> there, i said it
22:31 <Thelema5> It's fair to be skeptical; we have very little data on how GMO organisms affect human health over time
22:31 <DashedRainbows> exactly
22:31 <DashedRainbows> it's untested
22:32 <Thelema5> It's probably fine, but more data would be nice.
22:32 <Thelema5> !link https://youtu.be/9QHVg6eZk7w
22:32 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.
22:32 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Coming To America - The Club Scene (Eddie Murphy) HD
22:33 <DashedRainbows> "probably"
22:33 <Thelema5> Yep
22:33 <Schism> Sadly, without GMOs, the human race would be dead or dying. You can't put 7 billion people onto subsistence farming.
22:33 <DashedRainbows> 'you "probably" don't have cancer'
22:33 <Thelema5> It's hard to produce food for so many people without using some shortcuts
22:34 * Schism grows cactus on the ocean floor, and an acre of wheat in Earth orbit.
22:34 <DashedRainbows> which is essentially what the doctor said
22:34 <Starlight_Glimmer> DashedRainbows: I agree that modifying plants might have unintended, sometimes can even have catastrophic, consequences. The issue is we can achieve the same or similar result without actually modifying the DNA ourselves. Selective breeding/cultivation has the same effect over a longer period of time.
22:35 <DashedRainbows> but they haven't called so yay
22:35 <DashedRainbows> Starlight_Glimmer: indeed
22:36 <DashedRainbows> let me check if the labs are done
22:36 <Thelema5> The long and sort of it is that human are adaptive animals, and our food sources have varied for millenia. There maybe some collaterally damage for a few generations if GMOs turn out to be a /really bad idea/, but eventually we'll adapt as a species
22:36 <Thelema5> *short
22:37 <Cepheid> The reason I'm indifferent to GMOs is because I look at it from the perspective of where things are going.
22:37 <Thelema5> We literally built our empire on modifying our enviroment to suit.
22:37 <Cepheid> Currently, the population of Earth keeps increasing.
22:37 <Starlight_Glimmer> What worries me way more is that companies don't modify the DNA the enhance production, but to build a business model. They want to sell you products so you're barely making more money than you would with traditional farming, but using products that have a larger environmental impact.
22:38 <Cepheid> I got nothing to back this claim, but I'm betting that the human population is growing faster than our food sources can adapt.
22:38 <Thelema5> Well, vertical indoor farming is increasing yield MUCH more than GMOs
22:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> If you want to feed more people the solution would be to eat less meat. You don't need GMOs for that
22:38 <Cepheid> Okay.
22:39 <Cepheid> This went into a direction that I don't want to get involved in.
22:39 <Thelema5> Agree 100%, but you still have to produce quality protiens.
22:39 <Cepheid> You can discuss this, but without me.

23:08 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, welcome to the land of the semi-awake
23:09 <Thelema5> I'm having a strange conversation right now with a very wealthy investor who tried, years ago, to purchase the creepy old hotel I used to work at. He "heard through the grapevine" that the hotel had closed and now he's milking me for information
23:10 <DashedRainbows> I should start taking art requests, I've gotten passable at drawing these horses
23:10 <Thelema5> Do eet
23:10 <DashedRainbows> but I iz shy and lazy
23:10 * Thelema5 nods
23:11 <Cepheid> Sure it's a good idea to discuss stuff like that with them, Thelema5?
23:11 <LibrarianofHope> least sell the info
23:12 <DashedRainbows> but anyway, free horse art: may look like crap but hey
23:12 <LibrarianofHope> i tried that gig, hard market
23:13 <DashedRainbows> your gig was cheap art right?

23:16 <DashedRainbows> good luck
23:16 <Cepheid> Fair enough.

23:18 <LibrarianofHope> music helps me
23:19 <LibrarianofHope> look for vocaloid or anime covers, thtas my usual way
23:19 <ADragonDreaming> hmmmm...
23:19 <ADragonDreaming> much as I want to use big spruce or fir trees for a foresty look, it seems like oak is the tree that doesn't care about adjacency
23:20 <LibrarianofHope> make a huge tree
23:20 <LibrarianofHope> a god tree
23:20 <LibrarianofHope> go big or go home
23:20 <ADragonDreaming> hmm... spruce trees don't care about adjaceny either, okay
23:21 <Cepheid> I really should play some Minecraft at some point. I seem to be in a buildy mood.
23:21 <ADragonDreaming> I'd be willing to set up some kind of hamachi lan thing
23:22 <Cepheid> Why even do that?
23:22 <ADragonDreaming> because I don't know of a way to play mp minecraft without paying for a server?
23:23 <Cepheid> There are dedicated server applications.
23:26 * DashedRainbows goes to art
23:26 <Cepheid> That said, setting up a modded server would require a bit of research, for me.
23:26 <Cepheid> It's not as simple as using the Twitch client.
23:26 * Schism nods.
23:29 <Cepheid> I'll investigate it tomorrow.
23:29 <Cepheid> Right now I'm too out of it.
23:37 <Thelema5> ...well that was a tremendously satisfying meal. I've not had corndogs since I was like... 12 years old. Freaking delicious
23:38 <Thelema5> Fried food on a stick, who could complain
23:39 <Lumindia> JIOPFGEWoegrwjaioawgejioaiwgjeo

23:42 <Thelema5> Gah\

23:42 * Thelema5 applies copious amounts of water
23:42 <Lumindia> yeah, I got a wet washcloth and held it to my eye for a few minutes
23:43 <Lumindia> my left eye is now bloodshot
23:43 <Thelema5> Sounds awful

23:55 <Thelema5> CO companies just pay for 25 years of domain reg. and hosting like that and then walk away? lol
23:55 <Thelema5> *Do
23:56 <Thelema5> I guess when you're looking at movie promotion budgets, it seems like a small expense
23:57 <Cepheid> Some do, yes.
23:57 <Cepheid> Could be they just forgot about it.
