00:39 <Schism> Alright.

00:39 <Schism> Who replaced Canada with Niflheim?

00:40 * PinkieShy hides

00:42 <PinkieShy> I never heard that saying before till now..

00:42 <PinkieShy> 'you can put lipstick on a pig and call it a cat but its still a pig'

00:42 <Stormspark> haha, Niflheim, that's a good one

00:42 <Stormspark> it's probably one of these

00:42 <Stormspark> v

00:42 <Stormspark> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_vortex

00:42 <Cepheid> Niflheim is the land of the Frost Giants.

00:43 <Stormspark> in Norse mythology yes

00:43 <Cepheid> Yep.

00:43 <Stormspark> remember in the Thor movie the place where Thor and company went at the beginning in defiance of Odin, and everything was pretty much snow and ice?

00:43 <Stormspark> that was Niflheim

00:43 <Cepheid> Yeah, I know.

00:44 <Stormspark> I actually like the Marvel take on Norse mythology

00:44 <Stormspark> especially when they made Yggdrasil literally the entire universe, in the shape of a tree

00:44 <Cepheid> The branches, galaxies.  The leaves, planets.  It'd work.

00:47 <Schism> This is, of course, not to be confused with Niflhel, which is the land of the dead.

00:47 <Schism> But seriously, I was out there for 10 minutes and came home covered in hoarfrost.

00:48 <Schism> Cepheid: I think this comic perfectly encapsulates you.  http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20091019

01:36 <Thelema5> Bleh, the snow is really starting to come down now.

01:36 <Thelema5> The latest accumulation estimate is 20-24 inches

01:36 <Thelema5> O.o

01:36 <Thelema5> Over night

01:37 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 you sir are one lucky person imo :P

01:38 <PinkieShy> You get snow.. We so far haven't got rain at all.. But they are calling for it.

01:38 <PinkieShy> I wish i lived where snow was such a regular thing :D

01:40 <Thelema5> Pft, I've no idea how I'll dig myself out.

01:41 <Thelema5> I've lost a lot of muscle mass since becoming vegetarian and have an open laceration on my thumb. Also suffreed a back strain last week. Shoveling is not really possible

01:42 <Thelema5> I guess it's a good thing I work from home

02:08 <PinkieShy> Stores here started to sell the reuseable straws.

02:08 * Thelema5 tastes like... er, what did I have for dinner tonight? Hmmm...

02:09 <Thelema5> Oh yes, Turk'y fillets with a baked potato, roasted corn and gravy

02:10 <PinkieShy> Though i would miss the plastic straws.. I kinda wish they'd ban them here like they want to do plastic store bags..

02:10 <PinkieShy> I saw a video on YouTube how bad plastic straws 'can' be..

02:10 <PinkieShy> They had to pull one out of a turtle's nose that was stuck deep :(

02:11 <Thelema5> Plastic straws are really a bit of a red herrring. They comprise like .0009% of the plastics polluting the oceans

02:12 <Thelema5> Not using them is really just a simple and convenient way for entitles whites to feel like they're making a difference on a global stage

02:12 <Thelema5> *entitled

02:13 <Cepheid> I wouldn't say entitled whites.  Entitled people in general.

02:14 <Thelema5> Fair enough

02:14 <Starlight_Glimmer> You know these plastic rings they use in some countries around cans of soda/beer? Those are actually a lot worse :P

02:14 <Thelema5> But the US and Canada are hardly among the top offenders https://www.euronews.com/2018/04/20/what-plastic-objects-cause-the-most-waste-in-the-sea-

02:15 <Thelema5> The long and short of it is that plastic straws are just a scapegoat to make people feel better about being powerless in a greater struggle

02:16 * DashedRainbows barks and goes to search for food

02:17 <Thelema5> https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/06/90-of-plastic-polluting-our-oceans-comes-from-just-10-rivers/

02:17 <Schism> Finally!  Finally won a hand of mahjong.  I'm getting the hang of it.

02:18 * Thelema5 offers DashedRainbows some habanero cheese and crackers

02:18 <DashedRainbows> Yay

02:18 <Thelema5> But not any scorpion peppers.  Because eff them even b*st*ards

02:18 <Cepheid> ~8-9 hours.

02:18 <Cepheid> That's about how long my brain can "remain" focused on work.

02:18 <Cepheid> ... I have no idea why I quoted that.

02:19 <Thelema5> *evil

02:20 <DashedRainbows> Yeah

02:20 <Cepheid> Hmm.

02:20 <Cepheid> Expert Mode Terraria, or Normal Mode?

02:20 <Cepheid> Mind, I've never "completed" Terraria, or even killed a boss.

02:21 <Cepheid> So... I'm thinking normal.

02:22 <Cepheid> Looks like this world's got Crimson.

02:23 <DashedRainbows> How's the Thelema5 today?

02:25 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, Meh. got out and did some shopping, had breakfast at my favorite diner... but ultimately everything was ruled by this massive storm headed my way. Bought 10 gallons of drinking water in case we lose power, and I'm dreading having to try and dig out in the morning. We're expected to get 20-24 inches of snow overnight

02:26 <Thelema5> How are you?

02:26 <DashedRainbows> How northern

02:27 <Thelema5> For the record, I have a private deep well which requires electrity to pump. If the power goes out, I have no water at all

02:27 <DashedRainbows> I'm looking for food

02:28 <Thelema5> Peanut butter is a good source of protein

02:28 <DashedRainbows> Yummy

02:31 <Thelema5> a 2002 survey showed the average American will have eaten 1,500 of these sandwiches before high school graduation.[

02:31 <Thelema5> Talk about a comfort food!

02:38 <PinkieShy> I love PB&J..

02:57 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, I agree. I try to incorporate whole grains as much as I can, but PB&J requires white bread

03:00 * Thelema5 goes to make a PB& J on white

03:03 <PinkieShy> when Feb gets here and i order that memory foam topper.. I'm going to be hopefully no more back pain till i get a new mattress..

03:04 <Thelema5> PinkieShy, crunchy or creamy PB?

03:04 <PinkieShy> Creamy :D

03:04 <Thelema5> Gah, I prefer crunchy

03:04 <PinkieShy> But i could go either or :3 I love to eat roasted peanuts and i'm sure crunchy is almost like eating those

03:04 <Thelema5> Yup!

03:05 <Thelema5> Adds some much needed texture to the sandwich

03:05 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 strawberry or grape? :P

03:06 <Thelema5> Grape, I'm not very adventurous

03:06 <PinkieShy> I'm either or ;P

03:06 <PinkieShy> I tried strawberry jam at waffle house and i love it :3

03:06 <Thelema5> Heh. I tried Apple Jely at WH, love it.  But not on PB&J

03:07 <Thelema5> *jelly

03:13 * Surreal_Nightmares meows at Thelema5

03:13 * Thelema5 welcomes this unexpected dose of protein

03:13 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares

03:14 * Thelema5 pattapats Filly_Nightmares

03:16 <Cepheid> Schism, why does the Buckley's Cough Syrup with Expectorant have to taste like soggy mothballs?

03:17 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Thelema5 tummy

03:18 * Thelema5 groans a bit

03:19 <Schism> You might ask that of many Buckley's expectorants.

03:20 <Cepheid> Except that implies all of them taste bad.

03:20 * Schism plays mahjong.

03:20 <Schism> Need a 4 or a-- oh.

03:21 * Filly_Nightmares nomfs Thelema5

03:21 <Schism> Oh.  I won.  o.o

03:22 <Schism> That comes as a surprise, because I know very little of the game.

03:26 <Schism> Though a 4 or 7 would've been nice as a finisher.

03:28 * PinkieShy is in very much pain.. Upper and lower back pain to the point he just wants to scream in pain.. :(

03:28 * Schism hugs the Pinkieshy... gently. Has similar pain in neck and shoulder. :<

03:28 <Schism> To the point where I wanna punch my shoulder until it stops.

03:32 <PinkieShy> Mine is to the point.. I wanna get a bed spread out of my closet.. Put it on top of my memory foam topper that is like 7 months old now..

03:32 <Thelema5> I also recently had a pain like that. Bought this: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Wahl-Hot-Cold-Therapy-Handheld-Massagers-for-Back-Neck-Foot-Full-Body-Massage-4295-400/37556030

03:32 <Thelema5> Did the trick

03:32 <PinkieShy> Thelema5 laying in bed at night doesn't help.. I toss and turn in pain.. :/ been waking up in middle of night as well..

03:33 <Thelema5> Heat + full power + 10 minutes = relief

03:33 <PinkieShy> at this point I'm thinking of saying screw it and if it hurts my credit score a bit not care and just order the memory foam topper.

03:34 <PinkieShy> walmart has one at $100 for lucid 4" brand.. Fingerhut has some at $200 4" no brand.. and I'm sure its not worth it

03:35 <PinkieShy> $100 for lucid which is like a good brand of a mattress memory foam maker..

03:36 <PinkieShy> The floor feels the same as my mattress with no topper.. Yet the mattress says its a plush in the name and its not.

03:37 <Thelema5> Hmm.

03:38 <Thelema5> Didn't you just get that matress a little while ago?

03:38 <PinkieShy> The topper was 7 months ago..

03:38 <PinkieShy> The mattress itself is 5yrs old..

03:38 <Cepheid> Right, I'm gonna go hop onto bed, now.

03:39 <Cepheid> I'll see you folks tomorrow.

03:39 * PinkieShy licks Cepheid

03:39 <DashedRainbows> So full...

03:40 <Thelema5> G'night

03:40 <DashedRainbows> Pain discomfort

03:40 <Thelema5> Sorry you're uncomforable, DashedRainbows

03:41 <DashedRainbows> Want to hurl

03:44 <PinkieShy> So.. I can deal with the pain i guess..

03:45 <PinkieShy> Credit Karma says if i increase my capital one balance right now without the new credit being posted my usage will be almost 100% which could drop my score like 81 points o_o

03:45 <DashedRainbows> Years ago I bought a 16oz rainbow dash mug and now I can finally use it

03:45 <DashedRainbows> Still a lot

03:45 <PinkieShy> besides the first is almost here

03:46 <PinkieShy> I'll be able to buy it then without putting it to credit

03:57 * DashedRainbows does the pony

03:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> Item price 10 bucks, shipping 13 bucks - for something the size of a coin

10:32 * Finwe listens to Nr. 6: Waltz II of Dmitri Shostakovich's Jazz Suite No. 2.

10:32 * Schism listens to Bad Apple, by RichaadEB ft. Cristina Vee.

10:41 <Schism> "You know, I suspect she has one hell of a source." "My bits are on time travel."

10:44 * ConfusionRift listens to a guy complain about some PC maintenance, even though it's all completely his fault.

10:45 * Finwe noms on ConfusionRift's customers.

10:45 <Schism> This is hardly unique.  People will also complain about car maintenance, even though they've gone three years since an oil change and have never gone for a tune-up...

10:49 <ConfusionRift> I still find watercooling to be scary.

10:50 <Schism> "Okay.  The backlash from getting hit in the middle of a flash step is painful.  OW."

10:53 * Filly_Nightmares licks Schism and snugglies into ConfusionRift warms

10:53 * Schism pours warm oatmeals into Filly_Nightmares!

10:54 * Filly_Nightmares purrs and nomfs Schism tummy

11:02 <Schism> And then Nuclear Fusion.

11:02 <ConfusionRift> That would call Cepheid's attention.

11:09 * Finwe offers some smoked salmon seasoned with garlic to Schism.

11:10 * Schism puts it on a bagel with cream cheese. o3o

11:14 * Schism then declares ron on Finwe's discarded salmon.

11:15 <Finwe> Curses!

11:16 <Schism> Bagel, bagel, bagel, two, three and four of eggs, six seven and eight of eggs, three fives of bacon, and a pair of two waffles.

11:16 <Finwe> o3o!

11:17 * Schism is very silly this morning. Should nap.

11:19 <Schism> On the other hand, I could hard-boil some eggs...

11:21 <Finwe> Hard-boiled eggs are best served with spinach soup.

11:22 <Schism> No, sour cherry thumbprint cookies will take a fair part of my evening.

11:22 <Schism> And I generally tend to make deviled eggs.  o3o

11:22 <Finwe> What devilry is this?

11:22 <Schism> The tasty kind.

11:22 <Finwe> Indeed.

11:23 <Schism> Cherry vanilla thumbprint cookies, I should note.

11:24 <Schism> It's not right without lots of vanilla.  o3o

11:29 * Finwe boops Schism with Vanilla planifolia flowers.

11:30 * Schism peers thereat, sniffs, then distills.

11:31 <Finwe> Archaeological evidence suggests that vanilla was obtained by sea trade from Africa or India some 3,600 years ago and used to flavour olive oil in what we know as the Middle East.

11:32 <Schism> It does make sense that it was a flavouring for so long.

11:34 <Finwe> Ah, Tchaikovsky, Op. 20, Act I: 4. Pas de trois. Also known as the main theme of the Lucasfilm game Loom. o3o

15:57 <Cepheid> Nice.

15:59 <RazorSharpFang> I am a good programmer. (I should have used sizeof)

15:59 <Cepheid> It happens.

16:00 <Cepheid> What is the application meant to do?

16:00 <RazorSharpFang> It's a random-chance application. It does a recurring binomial until all members are at zero.

16:04 <RazorSharpFang> Suppose you have 100 people with 10 coins. They put them into slot machines until they run out of coins. 51% to double for each coin. After 500 rounds, what's the most common amount of coins to have?

16:04 <RazorSharpFang> As it happens, 0. 0 is not only the most-common number to have, but most people end up with nothing. Once you run out of coins, you can't play anymore.

16:11 <Cepheid> Heh.

16:13 <RazorSharpFang> Even with some pretty stacked odds (60% even) most common value is zero.

16:13 <RazorSharpFang> People just keep stacking up at zero.

16:15 <Cepheid> Odds are against you.

16:16 <RazorSharpFang> Seems even with huge starting values, zero is always the most common amount.

16:17 <Cepheid> Try 90%.

16:31 *** Joins: Persona (Tilde@Pony-loni7h.res.rr.com)

16:32 <RazorSharpFang> All biases against Intel GPUs are fair enough.

16:37 <Cepheid> True, but this is closer to "ATI/AMD cards are buggy and prone to crashing when using GLSL.  Intel doesn't support GLSL *AT ALL*." type biasing.

16:37 <RazorSharpFang> Do they have citations?

16:38 <Cepheid> No.

16:39 <RazorSharpFang> They'd be justified if it was like "... are prone to crashing. [5] [6] [7] [8]"

16:39 * Cepheid would love to toy with Vulkan instead, but only one machine in his house has support.

16:39 <Cepheid> Intel won't support Vulkan on Haswell hardware(At least, for now anyways.  Let's see what the Linux Gallium3D driver brings for it.), so..

16:41 <Cepheid> I mean, I could probably get away with using a software Vulkan API for testing, but yeah.

16:42 <RazorSharpFang> No-one likes using software rendering.

16:42 <Cepheid> This is true.

16:43 <Cepheid> In any case, OpenGL and GLSL it is, #version 150.

16:49 <Cepheid> Geeze, OpenGL wiki, why not just make a table for that?

16:49 <Cepheid> Trying to figure out what the requirements are for a shader program, in regards to individual shaders.

16:50 <Cepheid> Like, will a program link if there's no vertex shader?  Will it link if there's no fragment shader?  Will it link if it contains just a vertex shader?  And so on.

16:51 <Cepheid> From what I can tell, a vertex shader alone is sufficient.  A fragment shader implies existence of a vertex shader.  A geometry shader implies existence of a vertex shader.

16:52 <Cepheid> Therefore, a vertex shader is required.

16:52 <Cepheid> All others are optional.

17:13 <Thelema5> Winter is not my favorite season

17:13 <Cepheid> Yeah, my dad's outside shoveling too.  Parents won't let me help.

17:15 <Thelema5> I've given up. Been outside for two hours, and have only mananged to clear around my car and the path from the driveway to the house. I just called a guy with a plow- hope he gets back to me

17:16 <Cepheid> I guess it depends on how bad the snowing is, really.

17:17 <Cepheid> It's mild, here, and the driveway is short.

17:17 <Cepheid> Shoveling the snow now just keeps it from becoming unmanageable later.

17:18 <Thelema5> We received more than a foot overnight, and then rain and sleet on top of that.  I usually shovel out my driveway without too much trouble... this is just far too heavy for me to manage.

17:53 <Cepheid> So, last week, the landlords started doing chimney checks for the housing they own in the neighbourhood.

17:53 <Cepheid> They sent some guy to check out all the chimneys.  No problems.

17:54 <Cepheid> He arrives at our place, gets to work.  My cat walks up to him to see what he's doing.  Suddenly, the chimney guy starts freaking out horribly.

17:54 <Cepheid> Apparently, he's terrified of black cats.

17:54 <Thelema5> :/

17:54 <Cepheid> It gets funnier, because he explains another scenario that freaks him out.  His sister owns three black cats, and when he goes to visit, he asks her to lock the cats up.

17:55 <Cepheid> Well, recently, his sister said "Nope.  You're just gonna have to deal with it.  I'm not locking them up for your sake."

18:08 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

18:09 <Cepheid> It's an interesting concept for music in a game.  Your "partner" in the Gunvolt series, is a character named Lumen, titled The Muse.  She has the ability to manipulate the powers of others through music.  She can restore life, suppress abilities, boost them, etc.

18:10 <Cepheid> If you do a damned good job in a mission, the music changes to one of her songs, and you get boosted.  Usually this requires collecting 1000 kudos without losing them.  This is primarily done by being bad-ass.

18:10 <Cepheid> Destroy enemies while in the air, kill multiple enemies at the same time, avoid getting hit.  It encourages heavy recklessness.

18:12 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Azure Striker Gunvolt OST: Reincarnation (Lumen) [HQ]
