00:23 <PinkieShy> Hi DashedRainbows :D
00:23 <DashedRainbows> Yo
00:23 <PinkieShy> Krispy Kreme almost done it to me again lol
00:24 <PinkieShy> I apparently stopping at 3 donuts..
00:24 <PinkieShy> Not oging to get another tonight..
00:24 <PinkieShy> I don't wanna eat 4 or 5 in a day.. lol
00:25 <PinkieShy> Sadly they were out of glazed :(
00:25 <PinkieShy> They said 1hr 30 minutes before they could cook any..
00:27 <DashedRainbows> That's sad
00:27 <PinkieShy> The manager did leak some info about them though :D
00:27 <PinkieShy> By 2020 we will have a Krispy Kreme donuts within 10miles from my house.
00:27 <PinkieShy> no more having to drive around to Carolina Forest to get krispy kreme. :D

00:28 <DashedRainbows> They haven't responded so I suppose it's true not that it matters
00:29 <PinkieShy> I had some stores confirm a few things about this city though..
00:29 <PinkieShy> It seems more people swears by Verizon Wireless out here over AT&T.
00:30 <DashedRainbows> I have TMobile prepaid
00:36 <LibrarianofHope> im buying disgaea
00:36 <LibrarianofHope> disgaea 1 complete
00:37 <LibrarianofHope> tooo heck wit it, i earned my prinny goodness
00:40 * DashedRainbows licks PinkieShy
00:46 <PinkieShy> DashedRainbows I use Verizon Prepaid.. Might have to go At&t next year though..
00:46 <PinkieShy> If Verizon 4g lte doesn't improve out here..
00:46 <PinkieShy> I'd have dropped calls often..
00:47 <DashedRainbows> Man, am I glad I live in a non rural area
00:50 <LibrarianofHope> but cows
00:51 <PinkieShy> DashedRainbows this city is more of a rural city than anything.. lol
00:51 <PinkieShy> They try to preserve the trees here..
00:53 <PinkieShy> But when the guy starts to put 100+ houses out here.. I think they might try to improve the signal more
00:54 <LibrarianofHope> the guy?
00:54 <LibrarianofHope> like the ,man but chill?
00:54 <PinkieShy> Somebody is wanting to put a huge neighborhood out here, and some people are still fighting it.. IDK if he is going to do complete his idea or not.. but that would be nice :P
00:54 <PinkieShy> idk I just heard its a guy wanting to put a lot of homes out here.
00:55 <PinkieShy> 100 homes would mean more unhappy people unless the companies get to work and try to make the signal better hehe
00:55 <PinkieShy> We as the consumers of the companies have power to change what we don't like if enough people fight for it :P

01:18 <Starlight_Glimmer> I wanted to watch the new Harry Potter movie in it's native language
01:18 <Starlight_Glimmer> Turns out it only plays mid-week at afternoons

02:09 <Schism> Lumindia! And possibly Cepheid too.
02:10 <Schism> Viera and Blue Mage confirmed. o3o
02:24 <Stormspark> I have no idea how blue mage is going to work in that game...I guess they figured it out though
02:25 <Stormspark> it was funny how they had the dude changing jobs during the cinematic, and it made the same sound it does in game
02:26 <PinkieShy> My doggo is just chewing at his bone i got him.. Refusing to let me take it from him xD
02:26 <Schism> They do that in many of the cinematics, aye.
02:26 <PinkieShy> Refusing like to the point I'm afraid he'll bite me..
02:26 <Schism> Stormspark, also, the way they showed it, BLU will learn attacks from certain foes in solo duties, probably along with the job quests. I'm going to guess it starts at 50 and goes from there, but I wouldn't be against another job starting at 30.
02:29 <PinkieShy> Schism wanna know how bad my data speeds are out here?
02:30 <PinkieShy> Like in my house on my phone if i had no wifi just verizon speeds
02:30 <PinkieShy> 0.60Mbps download and upload.
02:31 <Schism> Yeesh.

02:38 * Schism blinks at Filly_Nightmares! "Noooo! It was going to hatch..."
02:39 * Filly_Nightmares skree!
02:39 * Schism grumps, and provides Filly_Nightmares wif cookies.
02:39 * Filly_Nightmares nomfs the cookies and uses Schism as a bed
02:40 * Schism then offers PinkieShy another of those keyfob toys. This one shows an egg about to hatch into a pet monster of one's very own.
02:40 <PinkieShy> Cricket Wireless told me today they are part of at&t and told me to come talk with them if after Verizon towers shuts down the 3g and 1x if i get bad signal as they might offer stronger :P
02:51 * DashedRainbows ponies quietly
03:00 <PinkieShy> You would think with HTC (horry Telephone) being a resller of at&t and HTC being the most used landline, cable, and internet provider out here.. at&t would be king of the hill.
03:01 <PinkieShy> Maybe they are trying to be king..

05:14 <PinkieShy> Does it make me sound old remembering Sun com and Altel phone companies
05:14 <PinkieShy> Before T-mobile and Verizon bought them
05:24 <RazorSharpFang> I still think it's wrong for companies to just buy their competitors.
05:26 <PinkieShy> RazorSharpFang wanna know what's funny Alltel was bought by Verizon, When I first became a verizon customer.. They had to activate my flip phone manually..
05:26 <RazorSharpFang> Ah yes back in the day of flip phones
05:26 <PinkieShy> When they told me to call the activation line I got an Alltel error message lol
05:26 <PinkieShy> So out here was Alltel coverage..
05:26 <RazorSharpFang> These days companies just buy other companies for their customers
05:32 <PinkieShy> If At&t was allowed to buy t-mobile like they were trying.. There wouldn't be much competition, and competition is everything..
05:32 <RazorSharpFang> Aha, you think there's real competition between ISPs in America.
05:33 <PinkieShy> There isn't much choice out here where i live :P
05:33 <RazorSharpFang> Competition... what competition?
05:33 <PinkieShy> Everyone pretty much uses HTC (Horry Telephone)
05:33 <PinkieShy> sccoast.net is my ISP website.. its a redirect to their site :P
05:34 <ADragonDreaming> Interestingly, after the AT&T / T-Mobile merger fell through, T-Mobile turned out to be pretty disruptive in the market, which improved things overall for consumers for a while.
05:34 <ADragonDreaming> Makes me think big mergers should just be denied by default.
05:34 <RazorSharpFang> As long as the corporations have the legislation writers in their pockets competition is gonna be temporary.

10:57 <Schism> Hmmm. Well, I suppose that's fine. You got instanced 'jobs' with Y'shtola and Alphinaud so far.
10:57 <Lumindia> those were just solo duties

14:17 <Cepheid> You know, I go a little too far with my marking, I think. When marking, if there's an obvious problem, or the student tells me there's a problem with their assignment, I take the time to figure out why and tell them.

14:28 <RazorSharpFang> Do you have the time for that?
14:28 <Cepheid> Yes,
14:28 <Cepheid> It's not rocket science to read through their code.
14:30 <Cepheid> But gods, would it kill these students to do their game processing on the server side, instead of having every client do game processing and then emit the updated game data to everyone else?
14:32 <RazorSharpFang> Are they doing a P2P game?
14:32 <Cepheid> Client-Server model.
14:32 <Cepheid> It's a top-down, 2D version of curling.
14:33 <Cepheid> But so far, every student I've marked has each client handling the processing of the game logic, and then broadcasting it to the other clients.
14:33 <Cepheid> Which results in some bugs.
14:33 <RazorSharpFang> "I killed that unit" "No, I killed that unit"
14:34 <Cepheid> Namely, the more clients you have, the more inconsistent the game logic becomes, and you see the rocks jumping around on the screen as each client updates the game logic and then broadcasts it to every other client.
14:34 <Cepheid> And of course, the server console just goes absolutely ballistic with emitting printf-like debugging statements.
14:35 <Cepheid> Fortunately for the students, I can't dock marks for this. It's not a part of the requirements.

14:46 <Cepheid> And yes, I know it's a boneheaded rule, but it's not my choice.
14:46 <Cepheid> For whatever reason, professors set inane rules like what file format has to be used for this or that.
14:46 <Cepheid> They think they're helping the TAs in doing this, but honestly?
14:46 <RazorSharpFang> I'd want to be lenient if they submitted in a *.7z instead, but a rar?
14:46 <Cepheid> It just hurts the students.
14:46 <Cepheid> I dunno man, I dunno.
14:46 <Cepheid> I've lost marks because I submitted a .tar file once.
14:47 <RazorSharpFang> A *.tar.gz makes sense too, but a rar? I never am happy to see a rar.
14:47 <Cepheid> ...
14:47 <Cepheid> What exactly is with you and .rar files? You seem to have an inexplicable hatred of them.
14:47 <Cepheid> You don't mind other formats, but .rar?
14:48 <Cepheid> You seem to wish the apocalypse upon them, almost.
14:48 <RazorSharpFang> rar is proprietary closed-source, and the author has gone out of his way to be awful to projects that attempt to implement the rar compression algorithm.
14:49 <Cepheid> Fair enough.

15:30 * Schism headtilts at Cepheid. o.o
15:31 <Cepheid> Yeah, the usual approach is he lists names in a From X to Y method.
15:31 <Cepheid> Which he did.
15:31 <Schism> Did he go by first names this time or something?
15:31 <Cepheid> I was following it, up until I realized he assigned five names to me specifically, skipping over other names in that range.
15:31 <Cepheid> Nah.
15:31 <Schism> Oh, huh.
15:31 <Cepheid> He can specifically assign marking to students using the school system.
15:31 <Cepheid> Prior to this, he didn't use that.
15:31 <Schism> Reminds me of the old saw about a test which reads, "Before doing this, read all the questions..."
15:33 <Cepheid> Problem is, he submitted instructions for *BOTH* approaches.
15:33 <Cepheid> So when I saw the table with the "X to Y" approach, I assumed the initial approach.
15:36 <Cepheid> These students should be taking a basic networking course before they even touch web applications.

17:26 <Cepheid> Seems to be limited. Level 50, etc. I dun fully understand how or why. Is it just a preview of the class?
17:29 <Schism> I guess? The way the BLU obtains skills promises to be different, with them showing off a solo run against a variant of Shiva.
17:30 <Cepheid> Cat of mine, what are you doing?
17:31 <Schism> Thousand Needles, Bad Breath, couple others... looks like an interestingly varied class. I can only suspect that they want to ensure that it's balanced, too, at the various levels.
17:32 * Cepheid sneaks up behind Schism and subdues him. He then steals Schism's clothes and puts them on, then drags his body over to the conveniently located and empty bin.

18:11 <Schism> There's a neat little platinum-iridium cylinder stored away inside an argon-filled tank.
18:12 <Schism> It has been defined as the measurement of a kilogram, which is in turn how much that platinum-iridium cylinder weighs.
18:13 * Thelema5 nods
18:13 <Schism> Several backup cylinders were made, and regularly tested alongside. Now, the problem is, those cylinders diverge. Not greatly by most measures, but enough -- and that divergence has increased over time.
18:14 <Thelema5> Oh, you're talking about the planned redefinition, now I get it
18:15 <Schism> Yea. They voted to use an approach based on Planck's constant.
18:16 <Schism> Not how I would have done it -- I rather like the Avogadro project's approach, but maybe that's just because I like the idea of a kilogram defined by a palantir.
