03:04 <Thelema5> I'm okay. Saw my therapist today. It's been a few weeks for various reasons. He was blown away by how much progress I've made.
03:04 <Thelema5> So that's good. What's new with DashedRainbows?
03:06 <DashedRainbows> Nothing good. I'm waiting for my mom to sleep so I can NH nab some stuff
03:10 <Thelema5> What sort of stuff?
03:10 <DashedRainbows> Pills
03:11 <DashedRainbows> I'm conflicted

03:38 <PinkieShy> just like color and colour..
03:39 <PinkieShy> colour sounds more correct
03:39 <Thelema5> Not sure. Spelling wasn't standardized until the 1800s

08:37 <Koopz> Discord is taking over everything
08:38 * ConfusionRift still doesn't use it.
08:38 <Koopz> i just joined the 36th server
08:39 <Koopz> meanwhile i'm in 47 IRC channels across 4 networks
08:42 <Koopz> i generally don't have any problems with Discord, i'll just get a major problem associating servers by their icons on the list instead of having text links
08:51 <Koopz> in the long run*

09:09 <Koopz> 40 MB of pone can't be bad

09:10 <RazorSharpFang> I listen to exe files.
09:10 <Koopz> D:
09:10 * ConfusionRift chuckles.
09:10 <Koopz> still disappointed that Windows ships with "hide known extensions" enabled
09:11 * ConfusionRift is fine with it.
09:11 <ConfusionRift> Got used to it since the XP days.
09:11 <Koopz> it's the first thing i do on a fresh installation
09:11 <Koopz> disable it and display hidden files
09:12 <Jackie> Koopz: are you in Freenode
09:12 <Koopz> yup
09:12 <ConfusionRift> I do have the hidden files on display. I do work with them files and folders for games and such.

09:12 <Koopz> like Minecraft? :P
09:12 <Jackie> Freenode is a place for geeks heh
09:13 <Jackie> #linux and programming channels are quite big
09:13 <Koopz> yep
09:13 <RazorSharpFang> I'm in irc://irc.freenode.net/##politics myself.
09:13 <Jackie> I don't like Discord a bit because it lacks non gaming servers
09:13 <Jackie> Like programming
09:14 <RazorSharpFang> Jackie, There's TCD, alongside C#Dev discords.
09:14 <ConfusionRift> Minecraft is one, but there are a number of games that, for whatever reason, have vital files in AppData.
09:14 <Jackie> Maybe a few Linux ones I guess
09:14 <RazorSharpFang> The discords exist, but discovery on discord is hard.
09:15 <Jackie> I bet the geek userbase is low...
09:15 <RazorSharpFang> That depends on what you mean by geek
09:15 <Jackie> IRC is still alive though
09:15 <RazorSharpFang> That term is uncommon these days.
09:16 <Jackie> Geek as in programmers and computer tinkers
09:16 <Koopz> there's a literal ton of programming servers full of weebs
09:16 <RazorSharpFang> Just check out "The Coding Den"
09:16 <Jackie> Well the C++ I use is standard C++
09:16 <Koopz> but yeah Discord servers aren't exactly advertised publicly
09:16 <Koopz> since it's "invite-only"
09:17 <Jackie> I don't like visual c++ :p
09:17 <Jackie> Or anything visual at all
09:17 <RazorSharpFang> Not even user-interfaces?
09:17 <Jackie> No, anything visual <programming language>
09:17 <RazorSharpFang> Visual Java.
09:18 <Jackie> Because it doesn't follow the standard and it will probably not work on Linux or Mac
09:18 <Koopz> Visual JS
09:18 <Koopz> Visual PHP, now that's something i'd dive into :D
09:18 <Jackie> Mingw is something I'd recommend
09:18 <Jackie> With CodeBlocks
09:19 <RazorSharpFang> Sorry, I'm a Visual Studio C# dev.
09:19 <Jackie> You don't use Mono?
09:19 * RazorSharpFang works with WPF
09:19 <Jackie> C# is a thing on Linux
09:19 <Koopz> PHP Dev, i only spit out HTML, CSS and JS for UI
09:19 * Ali leans into RazorSharpFang
09:20 <RazorSharpFang> If I wanted cross-platform reliability, I'd use Java anyhow.
09:20 <Koopz> if you don't work cross-platform you're a meanie
09:20 <RazorSharpFang> Or, someone without a budget.
09:21 <Jackie> I hate Windows only software (except games)
09:21 <Koopz> don't you want to be better than those node-js devs that only release for Mac?
09:21 <Jackie> I play Windows games with Wine
09:23 <Jackie> These days many Windows only games are playable on Linux
09:24 <Koopz> don't tell me you're able to play Forza Horizon 4
09:24 <Schism> Flrgh. Old glasses.
09:24 <Schism> They work...
09:24 <RazorSharpFang> I'm considering making a game in Adobe Flash, which... would work on linux if there's a SWF player for linux
09:25 <Koopz> ...Flash
09:25 <Koopz> in 2018
09:25 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah, I've had difficulty getting good vector graphics to work in other frameworks.
09:25 <RazorSharpFang> There's just no decent alternative.
09:26 <Koopz> https://blog.chromium.org/2017/07/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-flash.html
09:26 <ConfusionRift> (sighs) Some people still make them, especially when they can't port them to a webm, fla, or html5.
09:26 <RazorSharpFang> Yes, flash-in-browser is dying/dead, but I mean flash for desktop.
09:26 <ConfusionRift> And some still make flash games.
09:27 <Koopz> Flash should've been dead 5 years ago
09:27 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
09:27 <RazorSharpFang> The tech industry has a thing about backwards compatibility and slow transitions.
09:27 <RazorSharpFang> We're still using IPv4 for instance.
09:27 <ConfusionRift> ^
09:28 <Jackie> I wish Flash is open source
09:28 <Jackie> Why isn't Adobe doing kt
09:28 <Jackie> *it
09:28 <Jackie> It's dying
09:28 <Koopz> because adobe doesn't care
09:28 <Koopz> adobe wants the moneyz
09:29 <Koopz> go buy that CC Student package for only 70€ per month
09:29 <Koopz> as if student had that much money to spend lol
09:29 <Jackie> They will lose money though
09:30 <Jackie> I meant the flash player
09:30 <Jackie> They should open source it
09:30 <Koopz> how would they loose money?
09:30 <Jackie> Flash player doesn't even make money
09:30 <Jackie> I don't see a problem of open sourcing it
09:30 <ConfusionRift> Funny how they announced they stopped supporting some of their older software, and pointed to them being free to download and use, and a week later they removed everything to make way for their cloud-based garbage.
09:30 <Koopz> yeah so how would they loose any if they don't make any in the first place
09:31 <Jackie> Until now, why isn't there an open source flash player
09:31 <ConfusionRift> I'm sure there's one.
09:31 <Koopz> like... an emulator?
09:31 * Schism switches out his old glasses for the new ones. "Right. Once I find out who coated the old ones in 447-2 and replaced them alongside my bedside, I will introduce them to the worst torture imaginable -- tickle funtime with 999.
09:32 <Jackie> No, a flash player that reads swf
09:32 <Koopz> iirc there's a plugin for IrfanView
09:32 <Schism> No, that's part of the Montauk procedure.
09:32 <Jackie> Because the swf spec is open source
09:32 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift
09:33 <ConfusionRift> There's also Swiff Player.
09:33 <Jackie> And no one bothered making a flash player
09:33 * Schism flops on Ali.
09:33 * ConfusionRift huggles Ali. :P
09:33 * Ali snuggles into Schism and ConfusionRift
09:33 * Schism also offers ConfusionRift some peanut butter and apricot jam on toast!
09:33 <ConfusionRift> I see some open source stuff, but all seems to be on alpha or beta.
09:34 * Schism also also offers Ali some, but it's just various jams and butters on toasts.
09:34 * Schism then offers Filly_Nightmares some, but it's all a cookie assortment.
09:35 <Koopz> it's a pile of monolithic legacy mess... adobe wouldn't think about embarrasing themselves by open sourcing it
09:36 <Koopz> open sourcing would also risk hackers finding new security holes even easier
09:36 <Schism> Koopz, it's Adobe.
09:36 <Schism> They would happily release it if they could plop down some kind of DRM on it and make money.
09:37 <Koopz> i really hope most people updated their browsers to a version where you explicitly have to allow flash to run
09:37 <Jackie> I suppose they should hand the flash player to Apache
09:38 * Schism looks at Firefox. "Yup, gotta explicitly allow." He is happy.
09:38 <Koopz> how complicated would it be for interactive blender stuff to be exported in a unity format?
09:38 <Jackie> Koopz: open source or not, it just sucks because of it's security
09:38 <Jackie> It has a whole selection of crappy games
09:38 <RazorSharpFang> That's "its" there.
09:38 * Filly_Nightmares rolls onto her back for Schism
09:38 <RazorSharpFang> "its" for ownership, "it's" for it-is.
09:39 <Koopz> i've seen plenty of unity embeds... would help if deviantArt would allow Unity stuff to be uploaded
09:39 * Schism stacks 70 choklit chips atop Filly_Nightmares!
09:39 <Schism> Choklit chip cookies. o3o
09:40 <RazorSharpFang> DeviantArt doesn't allow html/js apps either.
09:40 <RazorSharpFang> Probably because they're worried about sandboxing.
09:40 <Jackie> Anyway, html5 is just nice because it's easier than flash and it's an open standard.
09:40 <Schism> It is perfectly reasonable to limit certain coding boxes...
09:40 <RazorSharpFang> For web content? Absolutely, but its support for vector graphics is absolutely atrocious.
09:41 <Ali> So when do we bury tumblr? It's already dug its grave
09:41 <RazorSharpFang> Displaying an SVG? Who knows if it'll work or not.
09:41 <Jackie> Software exists for that
09:41 <Schism> The 17th is when the 22 people are throwing their knives into its back.
09:41 * Ali nibbles on RazorSharpFang like a biter
09:41 <Ali> 22 people?
09:41 <Koopz> https://www.deviantart.com/v747/art/Katya-Ironstead-turnable-736572727 <- at least we could get rid of flash for those
09:42 <Schism> Sorry, 23 people.
09:42 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Schism
09:43 * Ali headtilts hard at Schism
09:43 <Jackie> It's good software if it cross platforms on all 3 OSes
09:43 <Jackie> Like Blender :V
09:44 <RazorSharpFang> There's a lot of time you have to spend if you want that though.
09:44 <Schism> Ali: Julius Caesar. Stabbed 22 times by his friends!
09:45 <Jackie> Is there anything that Adobe would release software on Linux tho
09:45 <Schism> If Adobe released software on Linux, I'd immediately look at the engineers for zero-day exploits.
09:46 <RazorSharpFang> ehe
09:46 <Jackie> Doesn't have to be open source tho
09:47 <Jackie> It really works
09:48 <Schism> Adobe sucks. They're right up there with Oracle for suckitude, with an added pallet of "We don't want to release our buggy source to the public, so we're going to release our obviously buggy code instead." They're really, really BAD.
09:49 <Jackie> Unlike Adobe
09:49 <Jackie> Open source Java is a thing
09:50 <Jackie> And it works pretty well with Minecraft
09:50 <Schism> Yes, but Oracle really wishes it weren't. And it STILL doesn't work.
09:51 <Schism> Every other release of the JRE requires a new set of command-line parameters for every second piece of software ostensibly running on it.
09:51 <Jackie> It's funny that they contribute to OpenJDK
09:52 <Schism> I appreciate that they do it, and Minecraft's failures are all on MS, but for the love of Finagle...
09:53 <Jackie> Makes me not play bedrock
09:53 <Jackie> It doesn't even have it on mac or Linux.
09:55 * Schism looks at the iOS releases, then raises an eyebrow. "The crap?"
09:55 <Jackie> Yeah that's pocket edition
09:55 <Jackie> Anyway I'll always be a Java player
09:55 <Schism> Nono, I'm looking at Bedrock. 2016 latest edition.
09:56 <Jackie> It's just that original Minecraft has everything
09:56 <Schism> Oh yeah. Yupyup, including all the mods.
09:56 <Jackie> Development has been prioritized on 1.14
09:56 * ConfusionRift puts a file in, now has mods.
09:56 <Jackie> The snapshots just lag as hell
09:56 <Schism> I still maintain that Java is a terrible platform for a 3D game.
09:57 <Schism> ConfusionRift, Hi, Lea, hi!
09:57 <RazorSharpFang> Java is a terrible platform for a game.
09:57 <ConfusionRift> ...I'm getting back to that right now. :P
09:57 <Schism> ConfusionRift, have you gotten to the raid yet?
09:57 <Jackie> https://namemc.com/profile/jackiedetective.1
09:57 <Jackie> I'm adorbs btw
09:58 <ConfusionRift> I'm still a bit after the first dungeon., Schism.
09:58 <Schism> Ahhh, alrighty. o3o
09:59 <Jackie> My skin is terrible I guess because I did designed it
09:59 <Schism> Remember to head over to the monastery to complete that run.
09:59 <ConfusionRift> Told ya, I couldn't play as much during my mom's visit.
09:59 <ConfusionRift> I'm right after the quiz.
09:59 <Schism> At least now you have a bit more time. o3o;
09:59 <Jackie> It just sucks that my friends aren't Java players.
10:00 <RazorSharpFang> Your language choice should serve your use-case.
10:01 <ConfusionRift> Uuurgh! scptoolkit is freakin' out again!
10:01 <Schism> It's at least Euclid-class.

10:02 <Jackie> As a player, I don't like going to huge servers
10:02 * ConfusionRift plugs his PS4 controller back into the jar. "It should be working... now."
10:02 <ConfusionRift> ^
10:02 <ConfusionRift> Actually, Schism, do you know if regrowth is still active?
10:02 <Jackie> Because of ridiculous things like pay to win stuff
10:02 <Schism> ConfusionRift, once you're in Maroon Valley, note that the Likelikes are readily dispatched with fire -- but they have an enrage mechanic.
10:03 <Schism> I don't... I haven't logged on. Cepheid should be keeping it active, yes...
10:03 <Schism> Right now, though, I'm halfway to facedesking.
10:04 <Ali> What...game is this..
10:04 <ConfusionRift> I just don't like servers with a lot of players. Prefer calmer and smaller servers.
10:04 * Ali played WoW alone for 20 days...
10:04 <ConfusionRift> Schism: Tired?
10:04 <Schism> Yas.
10:05 <Ali> Must be Monster Hunter.
10:05 * Ali flops and rolls
10:06 <ConfusionRift> Schism: The regrowth server would be the modded MC server. As for the other stuff, that would be from CrossCode.
10:06 <ConfusionRift> Haven't played MH in some time. Super rusty at this point.
10:07 <ConfusionRift> The heck? Why am I getting chapter completion achievements?!
10:08 <Schism> Because Steam achievements were just added in 1.0.2.
10:08 <ConfusionRift> Ohhhh, right.
10:08 <ConfusionRift> Wait, so this is still under development?
10:08 <ConfusionRift> I thought the "beta" achievement was a joke. o_0
10:08 <Schism> Yes and no. It's complete in that the whole story is done. It's incomplete in that there are still some additions to be made.
10:09 <ConfusionRift> Huh. Okayday.
10:09 <ConfusionRift> Oh sorry.... blarg.
10:09 <ConfusionRift> Ali: The regrowth server would be the modded MC server. As for the other stuff, that would be from CrossCode.
10:09 <Schism> Amongst other things, the developers intend to add a few more circuit points via quests.
10:10 <Jackie> Is this Minecraft or...
10:11 <ConfusionRift> Schism: Are other elements following a different stat base?
10:12 <Schism> Y...es and no; you get just as many circuit points for those other elements.
10:12 <Jackie> !link https://youtu.be/fI8xydWY7mU
10:12 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.
10:12 <ConfusionRift> I ask because changing to fire chops my stats.
10:12 <Schism> Oh. Fill out your circuits.
10:12 <Jackie> Something that makes Java edition superior
10:13 <Schism> You have like 20 circuit points to throw into Fire.
10:13 *** Joins: ryaxnb21 (ryaxnb@Pony-hj0ath.ca.comcast.net)
10:14 <Schism> Neutral passives have 50% effectiveness when you're using an element, so yes, they get chopped.
10:14 *** Quits: Filly_Nightmares (Surreal@Cutest.Floofy.Changeling.Batpone) (Quit: The only things I need are books, friends and IRC. And books.)
10:16 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about 357,000 COMMAND BLOCKS in ONE MINECRAFT MAP?!
10:16 <Schism> I weep bitter tears for that server, which dies a little each day that other boxen might live.
10:17 * ConfusionRift fills the circuit... now his stats are higher on fire than on neutral. :P
10:17 <Schism> That's pretty SOP, Rifty. :P
10:17 <Schism> Here's the trick -- you can't stay in Fire (or any Element) all the time.
10:18 <ConfusionRift> I know. There will be switching to be done, especially when others have fire resistance, and there's the overload issue.
10:18 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares
10:19 <Schism> As you level up, of course, you'll get some passives which lower the rate of elemental overload.
10:19 * Schism noms on Filly_Nightmares' ears.
10:20 <Schism> The most amusing enemy with fire resistance in the Maroon Valley is the aforementioned Tim, which is very much a Likelike. It has to be hit with fire.
10:21 <Schism> Of course, you should bring Emelie along as you grind. o3o
10:22 <Schism> Also, Emelie is a ton of fun as you do the Faj'ro Temple. X3
10:23 <ConfusionRift> I normally do. She's offline at the moment though.
10:24 <ConfusionRift> Gonna do some side things.
10:24 <Schism> Oh! Then I suggest running through and getting to the next town. (And then doing those sidequests, yes.)
10:24 <Schism> You're, ah... probably going to be accosted along the way.
10:27 <Schism> Oh. Um. Point of note. That mining/bug minigame is really, really sucky the second time.
10:28 <Schism> You will probably die. Repeatedly. So... that might be a time to turn on the helper.
10:28 <ConfusionRift> ...I'm lost. :P
10:29 <Schism> Oh, you can quick-use the map by holding shift and selecting the right icon.
10:29 * Filly_Nightmares ear flopsies at s
10:29 * Filly_Nightmares ear flopsies at Schism!
10:30 <Schism> The minigame to which I refer is from the mining group in Bergen Village - once you get all the mining tools from the mine, you can take part in a kinda fun quest.
10:30 * Schism stacks up some choklit chip cookies in front of Filly_Nightmares!
10:31 <ConfusionRift> I just don't remember where the gate to the next area is, and it's not on the map.
10:32 <Schism> Oh, it's to the west of the dungeon.
10:33 <Schism> Head north from Bergen Village, and then take a left. You'll unlock it with the Shade, and then actually take a rail -- one you haven't seen since the opening!
10:33 <ConfusionRift> Gate found. :P
10:34 <ConfusionRift> Right before heading to the dungeon entrance, to the left, across the bridge.
10:34 <Schism> Yupyup.
10:36 <Schism> LASER BRIDGE! Ahem. I mean, *cough*. Laser bridge.
10:37 <ConfusionRift> Beh, and normal bridge. :P
10:37 <Schism> So disappointing. :<
10:39 <ConfusionRift> Man, they just chose the wrong spots for game starters. :P First the tundra, and then the desert.
10:41 <Schism> Yeah, I mean, if you're gonna terraform a moon with instant matter, at least try to make it logical, right?
10:41 <Schism> Did you find the legendary frobbit yet?
10:42 <ConfusionRift> Not that I know.
10:42 <Schism> Ah - seek out the greenery in the northern Bergen field.
10:43 <Schism> Also, um.
10:43 <Schism> Did you equip the proper footwear before doing the Mine?
10:44 * ConfusionRift headtilts.
10:44 <Schism> Oh gods, you didn't, did you.
10:44 <Schism> There's a piece of footwear which stops the slipping.
10:44 <ConfusionRift> ...
10:44 * ConfusionRift flops hard.
10:45 <ConfusionRift> Well, no matter. I kicked its butt hard anyways.
10:45 <Schism> Beat Emelie to the end?
10:45 <ConfusionRift> No. I got stuck in a section.
10:45 <Schism> Ah, bleh.
10:46 <ConfusionRift> There was something I had to bombard in the strangest of ways, so... it took me a while. Also, my exploration methods tend to be... slow.
10:47 <Schism> That's reasonable. I saved before entering, figured out all the puzzles, and then loaded and speedran the place.
10:47 <ConfusionRift> I should look into this, because I might need this footwear later.
10:47 <Schism> Icewalkers. https://crosscode.gamepedia.com/Items/Legs#Icewalkers
10:47 <Schism> They don't work in the ice track challenge, though.
10:48 <ConfusionRift> Makes sense.
10:49 <Schism> If you have not acquired the Ancient Sandals, DO SO.
10:49 * Filly_Nightmares noms Schism cheeks and cookies
10:49 <ConfusionRift> Whoa chill. I have them currently on. :P
10:50 <Schism> Okay then. :P Elemental Balance reduces the rate of overload. :P
10:52 <Schism> So are you using a defense-heavy build, or more of an attacker style?
10:53 <ConfusionRift> I try to be more balanced. If I can get higher attack without reducing defense, the better. I'm an oddball when it comes to RPGs.
10:53 <Schism> Fair nuff. Aaand... you already hate sharks.
10:54 <Schism> Balance is certainly a better choice than the pure defensive build I'm running; every time there's a chain of foes to fight, I lose a lot of time.
10:55 <Schism> But on the other hand... I can block everything with a smile. o3o

11:00 <Schism> Yup. Start grinding those botanics; you get a useful straw hat which helps greatly in collecting them.

11:05 <Schism> Tatalu Lips' straw hat is an item which provides a Botanics buff, which causes your enemy chain bonuses to apply to flowers and the like.
11:05 <Schism> It's also a fairly decent piece of headgear in and of itself.

11:15 <Schism> Some of these dungeon chests are just bovine fecal matter.
11:15 <Schism> But I guess that's part of the fun.
11:18 <ConfusionRift> Some of the chests are a pain in general. A lot of "how the heck do I get up there?!" moments.
11:18 <ConfusionRift> It forces you to explore and sometimes abuse of how jumps work.
11:18 <RazorSharpFang> "Bovine faecal matter" XD that's hilarious.
11:20 <ConfusionRift> It still gets me that some NPCs are colored, and the majority aren't.
11:20 <Schism> Sometimes, you have to get around those PG restrictions. X3
11:20 <Schism> Also, yes! I love that.
11:20 <Schism> The wide array of story-based bugs speaks of a game which was released in Early Access, and that's absolutely fantastic.
11:21 <ConfusionRift> Like how the music sometimes doesn't loop properly? :P
11:22 <Schism> Well, no. :P Also, I think a hotfix helped to fix that.
11:24 <ConfusionRift> Oh, got the super bunny quest!
11:25 <Schism> Yesss. Prepare for a legendary miniboss.
11:25 * Schism steeples fingers.
11:26 <ConfusionRift> What the?! Hahahaaa!
11:27 <Schism> Now.
11:27 <ConfusionRift> There's a door in the starting tavern that throws you into the sea.

11:37 <Schism> Oh yeah.
11:38 <ConfusionRift> I completely forgot I could do that.
11:38 <Schism> A sensible little easter egg, that.
11:38 <Schism> Also.

11:42 <ConfusionRift> Game... thanks for making fun of my total game time.
11:43 <Jackie> ConfusionRift: I just hope villagers are useful
11:43 <Jackie> I want villagers to be neutral lol
11:43 * Cepheid sits atop ConfusionRift.
11:43 <Jackie> Like if you hit them they'll attack you with their weapon
11:45 * ConfusionRift boops Cepheid. "G'Morning." :P
11:45 <ConfusionRift> Jackie: That would be a nice touch. And maybe have them wage war among the different villages.
11:46 <Jackie> Since Pillagers are a thing
11:46 <Jackie> They should fight back or something
11:46 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift: Jyuratodus is annoying.
11:47 <Schism> ConfusionRift, ah, you hit 10 hours.
11:47 <Jackie> Otherwise I don't see the point of villagers getting a redesign
11:47 <Schism> I don't think that's making fun of it, so much as a statement that 'yes, everyone hits this'.
11:48 <ConfusionRift> With bowguns, yes. It tends to just hop away. Unless its a light bowgun, in which case you can pepper a piece of ground with explosives and fire away as it lands there. But yeah, it can be annoying.
11:48 * Schism obtains the Golden Chest Plate, which is a completely useless piece of armour which just gives +20% droprate.
11:50 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift: It's more the whole "I'm covered in mud and nothing hurts me seriously!" thing.
11:51 <Jackie> Well
11:51 <Jackie> We can just mod the villagers
11:51 <Jackie> And make them neutral
11:51 <ConfusionRift> Thaaaat, yes. That sucks.
11:51 <ConfusionRift> Same with Barroth.
11:51 <ConfusionRift> And a similar garbage that Nergigante does.
11:51 <Cepheid> Barroth wasn't as bad, for some reason.
11:54 <ConfusionRift> That was... that was... (sighs) Yep, this is an RPG. :P
11:55 <ConfusionRift> Okay, why do I hear three instances of the song?!
11:56 <Schism> Gluh. I guess that bug wasn't fixed after all.
11:57 <Schism> ... waaaait a tick... yesss. Now I can kill those bugs in the Villa of Terror!
11:59 * Schism brings Emelie along for the ride, because he's an awful person.
12:05 <RazorSharpFang> Urgh, I need a job now.
12:12 <Cepheid> Become a monster hunter. Get bulldozed by giant monstrosities. See the Deviljho up close as it chews upon you. Witness the friendliness of the Bazelgeuse.
12:15 * Schism obtains... well, one more of the Hard Mode items.
12:17 <ConfusionRift> Huh, so they DID color major NPCs.
12:17 <Schism> The important ones, at least. o3o
12:18 <Schism> Has Apollo challenged you to your second duel yet? o3o
12:20 <ConfusionRift> Not yet. Am still side questing. Getting some of the lower stuff out of the way.
12:23 <Schism> Ah, good call.
12:25 * Schism buys some more Hi-Sandwiches. o3o
12:27 <Cepheid> Guuuhhh... I feel like upending the contents of my stomach. x.x
12:27 <Schism> Uergh. How's your glucose?
12:28 * Schism is in about the same boat.
12:29 <Cepheid> Dunno off hand. Shouldn't be that bad though. All I had was a bowl of cereal.
12:30 <Cepheid> Maybe it's the other way around. Not eating enough. I've lost about 7 pounds in the last week and a half.
12:33 <Cepheid> Of course I also slept poorly last night.
12:37 <ConfusionRift> Okay, enough fooling around. Back on track.
12:38 * ConfusionRift boops Schism with a small goat.
12:43 <ConfusionRift> Ooouuuh, that ramen fell like a brick.
12:43 <ConfusionRift> Then again, I made a mess with it. So I'm not surprised.

13:03 * Cepheid stretches and yawns.
13:04 <Cepheid> I think my issue is just plain exhaustion today. My jeans and clothing in general feel surprisingly cozy and comfortable. I want to sleep right now. x.x;
13:09 <Cepheid> Ahh, last week of lectures and other garbage.
13:09 <Cepheid> Then I can spend three weeks slacking off. o3o
13:11 <Cepheid> ... o3o
13:11 <Cepheid> I have an exam starting tomorrow. o3o
13:13 <Cepheid> It's open-book though, so I'll be fine. It's from the 5th to the 7th, as well.
13:14 <ConfusionRift> At least there's that.
13:14 <ConfusionRift> Schism... screw those sharks!
13:16 <Cepheid> Also, I got a mark high enough from the previous two exams that I can't possibly fail my linguistics class.
13:17 <Cepheid> ... Sh-
13:17 <Cepheid> I forgot my laptop power adapter.
13:17 <ConfusionRift> 0_0
13:17 <ConfusionRift> That is an issue.
13:17 <Cepheid> I'm at 37% too.
13:18 <ConfusionRift> That is a MAJOR issue.
13:18 <Schism> ConfusionRift, those sharks are -evil-, tis true.
13:19 <ConfusionRift> It went from "heh, Emillie is taking care of them no problem" to "OUCH, THE HECK!!!".
13:19 <ConfusionRift> And then the likelike things join in.
13:19 <Schism> You have an advantage in that you can actually damage the things, though. I have to counter their attacks with a perfect dodge to even graze the blasted things.
13:20 <Schism> Oh yeah, the Tims. Haaaate the Tims. Hit 'em with Fire and then obliterate them ASAP.
13:20 <Schism> Perfect block*
13:21 <Schism> Oh yeah, did you find the blue hedgehag?
13:21 <Cepheid> Right, I'm sending my laptop into ultra-low-power-saving mode, that means shutting down anything extraneous.
13:21 <ConfusionRift> Not yet?
13:21 <Schism> blrgh, catch ya soon.
13:22 <Schism> CR: It's a miniboss found in Autumn's Rise, in a small cave off the way. Well worth the effort to moidor.
13:22 <ConfusionRift> Sewial moideh!
13:23 <Schism> Wait... no, sorry, the Hedgehag is found by killing several others of its kind in an area in Autumn's Rise where it's always raining. I was conflating it with the Hillkat miniboss there.
13:24 <Schism> Appropriately, the Blue Hedgehag drops several chili dogs and a golden ring.
13:24 <ConfusionRift> ...pfffftt!
13:25 <ConfusionRift> I suspected. :P
13:25 <ConfusionRift> Gonna do that real quick before calling it in.
13:25 <Schism> As I recall, the applicable areas are in the south-southwest of AR.
13:25 <Schism> Only accessible via parkour.
13:26 <ConfusionRift> Boo, they fixed the map.
13:26 <Schism> ?
13:27 <ConfusionRift> Previously, you could hover the cursor on areas undiscovered, and the game would still give you the name of the areas. So you could find out where you're headed before moving to the next area.
13:28 <Schism> Oh, right! Well, you can still see the openings.
13:28 <Schism> Most of them, anyway. There's an area in Autumn's Fall which is specifically hidden, and a couple similar locales in Gaia's Garden.
13:32 <ConfusionRift> Oh wait. I did encounter it.
13:33 <Schism> Ah. Did you kill the Hillkat miniboss too?
13:33 <Schism> [frustrated hillkat noises]
13:38 <ConfusionRift> Wait, seems I haven't. I thought since I had the 'dogs. But no. Let me get this done.

13:49 <Schism> Mlfgh.
13:52 <ConfusionRift> ...
13:52 <ConfusionRift> I will NEVER get this lucky.
13:53 <ConfusionRift> Unless you have a high evasion armor.
13:54 <Cepheid> I didn't.
13:54 <Cepheid> That's why I was confused.
13:54 <ConfusionRift> Then... no idea.
13:54 <Cepheid> I started the dodge after the fireball flew past.
13:55 <ConfusionRift> I do think fireballs have a smaller hitbox than before.
13:55 <Cepheid> That was likely the reason. That or tunneling.
13:56 <ConfusionRift> Most of the damage comes from a direct hit, or the explosion of it hitting the ground.
13:56 <Cepheid> But I like to think the devs have accounted for tunneling.
13:57 <Cepheid> I feel like the character should have done the flex pose after that miraculous dodge.
13:59 <ConfusionRift> Oh! I think I know what's up. Looking at her fireballing to on your left... it looks like the fireball spawn a bit of a distance away from her fireblast. You might have just moved in between the fireblast and the fireball's spawning spot.
14:00 <ConfusionRift> Hypothesis, of course.
14:00 * Schism compares Monster Hunter World to Phantasy Star Online.
14:01 <Cepheid> Hmm.
14:01 <Cepheid> I wouldn't go that far Schism. But the similarities are there. Yes.
14:02 <Cepheid> That said I now understand the reasoning behind the scoutflies existence.
14:02 <Cepheid> The various maps are freakishly huge in contrast to earlier games.
14:03 <Cepheid> Easy to get lost in them. Even with the map.
14:03 <Schism> Hence why they're called scoutflies, because scouts can use them to triangulate their location. o3o
14:04 <Cepheid> I think they are more called that due to how they work. They point out spots of interest as you move about. Mostly harvest points and tracks and stuffs from monstahs.
14:05 <Cepheid> Though in that last question they liked pointing out Bazel's thorns.
14:05 <Cepheid> Er quest*
14:09 <Schism> I just read that Howard Tayler missed an update day once by a few hours -- because his server's power supply exploded so energetically that it took out three walls. This is quite appropriate.

15:40 <Schism> Well, okay, yes.
15:40 <Koopz> nah pretty sure this is heavily influenced by FF

15:41 <Schism> Chemist is a classic FF job. o3o

15:43 <Schism> Second row has a pigeon /trying/ to be Suzaku.
15:43 <Koopz> they use trusty war hammers
15:43 <Schism> Koopz: Palas use swords and shields. o3o;
15:44 <Koopz> go hammer or go home
15:44 <Koopz> o3o
15:44 <Schism> Hammer is more a Warrior's kind of weapon. o3o
15:44 <ADragonHoarding> Koopz: that's warcraft talking. I've used quite a few greatsword paladins in D&D.
15:44 <Schism> Hamaxe 4eva.
15:44 <Koopz> gotta admit i might've been too influenced by Warcraft
15:45 <ADragonHoarding> There was one Neverwinter Nights module series that unfortunately never got finished, but which provided the paladin with longsword, battleaxe, and warhammer.
15:45 <Schism> Hammer is also more of a Cleric's kind of weapon.
15:45 <Schism> Koopz: You were probably also influenced by Diablo.
15:45 <ADragonHoarding> They were intended for different enemies. Longsword for evil mortals. Battleaxe for demons and devils. Warhammer for the undead.
15:45 <Koopz> i actually hate diablo :P
15:45 <Schism> Oh, harrumph. :P But yeah, hammers are good against undead.
15:46 <Schism> Especially skellingtons.
15:46 <ADragonHoarding> Yes.
15:46 <Koopz> i love blunt weapons with high impact damage
15:46 <Koopz> piercing and slashing is not my thing
15:46 <ADragonHoarding> If you're playing a rogue, and you expect skeletons, flex that Mace proficiency.
15:46 <Schism> Though you don't actually hit them horizontally with the hammer. Rather, you pin them down, and then smash the skellington against the ground.
15:46 <Koopz> gotta do a huge whomp sound and enemies flying back several meters
15:46 <Schism> If you smack 'em upside the head, they just go flying.
15:47 <Schism> (They're freakin' bones. They weigh what, 20 pounds?)
15:47 <Koopz> why bother using hammers when you can just punch them :P
15:47 <ADragonHoarding> Clearly the reanimating magic gives them greater mass and stability than physics would dictate.
15:48 <Koopz> accurate fist to the head and it goes flying :P
15:48 <Schism> Monks are fun.

17:48 <Cepheid> Reportedly Microsoft is planning to make a new browser based on Chromium.
17:49 <Cepheid> IE is presumably finally dead.
17:49 <Schism> But but but what about EDGE?
17:49 <Schism> (insert howls of derisive laughter)
17:49 <Cepheid> Dead too.
17:50 <Cepheid> Meanwhile Windows Forms, WinUI and WPF are open source now.
17:50 <Schism> I consider it entirely appropriate that Microsoft have finally agreed that Netscape Navigator is a superior product.
17:51 <ADragonHoarding> IE will never be official dead until a browser that is compatible with the things that only work in IE comes along.
17:52 <ADragonHoarding> For example, there are still quite a few things in the business world that depend on ActiveX controls
17:52 <ADragonHoarding> those things are locked to IE
17:52 <Schism> The fact that they really, really shouldn't seems to have escaped the attention of the business world.
17:53 <ADragonHoarding> sure, but what's the simple and easy replacement?
17:53 <ADragonHoarding> then once you have that, sell it to the executives.
17:53 <Schism> You're missing the third angle. Simple, easy, and /cheap./ You can make a simple and easy replacement, but it's sure to be expensive.
17:54 <ADragonHoarding> which is why you can't sell it to the executives.

20:28 <DashedRainbows> The idea is excellent, the reality abhorrent
20:29 <ADragonHoarding> what idea is excellent?
20:29 <Schism> Tumblr's NSFW ban.
20:30 <DashedRainbows> I hate NSFW well most of it
20:31 <Schism> As ideas go, it's ... well... not great IMO. Apple demanded that something be done before the tumblr app could be published on the Apple Store, though, and so there it is.
20:32 <DashedRainbows> Yeah, NSFW is too broad
20:33 <Schism> Worse, it's going to be handled algorithmically, which has historically worked out to banning pictures of apple and cheese sandwiches for inappropriate content.
20:34 <DashedRainbows> I know that's why in reality it's terrible
20:37 <DashedRainbows> I'd say just ban pornography but there's too much content to sift by hand
20:40 <LibrarianofHope> sucks for writers too

21:01 <SunsetShimmer> I think you gotta accept that whilst you might disagree with something being a thing, that doesn't make it wrong.
21:02 <SunsetShimmer> although in this case, Tumblr is trying to appease shareholders and such...which is where madness lies
21:02 <Schism> As is often put, "An ye harm none, do as thou wilt."
21:02 <LibrarianofHope> i agree
21:03 <LibrarianofHope> i dislike nsfw on certain things, but wont ban them outright

21:04 <Schism> Mm. Though there are... certain mores which hold that NSFW content is inherently harmful.
21:05 <Schism> Whether or not they're right, tumblr's decision was shortsighted and will almost certainly lead to the demise of the platform.
