07:37 <ConfusionRift> Whoa. A Hat in Time... 50 player coop?!
07:42 <ConfusionRift> I wonder if one can do the contracts as well.
07:44 * ConfusionRift pokes at Schism because... why not?
07:44 <Schism> Hmmm...
07:44 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-360sli.charlton.irccloud.com)
07:44 <Schism> 50 players. What the crap?
07:44 <ConfusionRift> No joke, that's their plan. Crazy, huh.
07:45 <Golden> Oh the 50 play coop. The party like update, along with the Nyankuza correct?
07:45 <Schism> I find it hard to imagine it working. Then again, there was that thing with Just Cause 2, which had what, 1500 concurrent players on one server?
07:46 <Schism> Right now, ConfusionRift, I'm admittedly playing City of Heroes.
07:46 <Golden> ....the fact my phone didn't try to auto correct Nyankuza scares me.
07:46 <ConfusionRift> I should point out there's a mod for BL2 that allows 64 players in the same game.
07:46 <ConfusionRift> It works, and it runs fine... kinda.
07:47 <Schism> Do the enemies scale appropriately?
07:47 <Golden> Most likely not.
07:47 <ConfusionRift> Unfortunately, it depends on the host.
07:47 <Golden> If they have it set to OP 8 then possibly
07:47 <ConfusionRift> So if the host is on UVHM, yeeeaaaaahhhh.
07:48 <Golden> Uvhm with OP 8
07:48 * ConfusionRift slowly shakes his head.
07:48 <Golden> Oh! Did you guys see the gameplay reveal for BL3?
07:48 <ConfusionRift> Yep, I'm kinda excited.
07:49 <Golden> I am excited. Also I heard there is a unique legendary Maliwan smg called the "Handsome Jackhammer"
07:50 * DashedRainbows stretches
07:50 <Golden> Red text reads "Some people think they are the heroes of the story."
07:51 <Schism> Unfortunately, I don't trust the Epic Store any further than I can throw it, and being an immaterial thing, I have a hard time imagining how I could throw it.
07:51 *** Quits: Personifire (Tilde@Pony-12c4i7.dgbc.9fgu.6000.2605.IP) (Connection closed)
07:51 <Golden> I am getting it on ps4 so I am free from that crud store
07:51 <ConfusionRift> Actually... they mentioned that the wait is for Steam only.
07:51 <Schism> Cute.
07:51 <Golden> Yup.
07:52 * ConfusionRift nods.
07:53 <Golden> Also the guy in charge said that if steam makes their profit shares like Epic's then Epic would stop going for exclusives.
07:53 <Golden> Turns out Epic also bought the devs of rocket league
07:54 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift and snuffles
07:54 * DashedRainbows pokes Schism with her nose
07:54 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali.
07:55 * Schism considers, and offers DashedRainbows some chicken tikka masala. Also, hugs the Ali and offers a plush wookie.
07:55 <Ali> So they're going to redesign Sonic for the sonic movie after the massive backlash
07:55 *** Quits: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-0gbng9.dynamic.sonic.net) (Connection closed)
07:55 <ConfusionRift> It's hilarious. :P
07:56 <Schism> I've said it before, I'll say it again. SEGA and Sonic Team really went the extra mile to make Detective Pikachu look good in comparison.
07:56 *** Joins: Persona (Tilde@Pony-3vd7rg.dgbc.9fgu.6000.2605.IP)
07:56 <Golden> I didn't mind it. 'Gangster Paradise' was the only part of the trailer I didn't like.
07:56 <Schism> Could've fit for a Shadow the Hedgehog movie, though.
07:56 <Schism> I joke, but that character...
07:57 <Golden> Eh. Also if I am honest I am hoping that Sonic the Hedgehog movie is a so bad it's good like the Mario Bros movie.
07:57 * DashedRainbows noms and begs for more
07:57 <Golden> Though Jim being Eggman is priceless.
07:57 <Schism> I don't know why I liked that movie so much as a kid. Then again, I also liked the Power Rangers movie.
07:58 <Golden> My friends say I can do the "Monkey" line spot on.
08:00 *** Quits: Persona (Tilde@Pony-3vd7rg.dgbc.9fgu.6000.2605.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
08:00 <Golden> Anyway in all honesty I am, and still looking forward to the Sonic movie. Redesign or not. Another movie I am excited for is the 2019 version of Lion King.
08:00 * DashedRainbows gnaws on ConfusionRift's hooves
08:01 <Schism> Hey, we're fans of MLP. I won't shame anyone for looking forward to reboots of their favourites. Hell, I'm still looking forward to any, ANY possibility of a new ReBoot.
08:01 * ConfusionRift pets DashedRainbows. :P
08:01 <Golden> It's opening day is the day right after my b-day too. So I am hoping it has an opening night so I can see it on my birthday.
08:02 * DashedRainbows plays with her toy as she wags her tail
08:03 <Schism> Yanno, on consideration... I know, it's ridiculous, but Detective Pikachu is certainly a crazy enough idea, and the story might be told well.
08:03 <Schism> I've certainly enjoyed far more absurd stories.
08:04 <Golden> Gonna get my ticket for detective pikachu for it's opening night when my check posts. Amazing how we went from talking about dlc for hat in time to talking about movies.
08:04 <Schism> That's just how the slippery slope works.
08:05 <Golden> Yeah.

08:07 <ConfusionRift> Still to finish that one. (grumbles at the QTE)
08:08 * Ali snuggles on ConfusionRift and asks if they've been on the server much recently
08:08 <Golden> Which qte? Guessing the ones in Gregg's hangouts?
08:08 <ConfusionRift> I'm currently death walling.
08:08 <Golden> Or the ones in band practice?
08:08 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, the rhythm events... band practice!
08:09 <Golden> I like them. Plus you can just play bad, or skip them.
08:09 <Golden> You can even practice them for the next play through in Mae's room.
08:09 * ConfusionRift pokes at Ali, and points at the new flamers on each wall.
08:10 <ConfusionRift> Try playing with a input delay. -_-
08:10 * DashedRainbows offers her toy to ConfusionRift and returns to chewing on their hooves
08:10 <Golden> Oh.
08:10 * ConfusionRift grabs the toy and kinda tries to play with DashedRainbows. :P
08:10 <Golden> Then yeah play badly, or just hit esc
08:11 <ConfusionRift> Do those events affect the story?
08:11 <Golden> Not really. Though I am playing on switch, and the only issue I have been getting is my left control stick fighting a little bit against me to move Mae somewhere.
08:12 <Schism> I should take a look at NITW sometime. It certainly hits all the right notes, from what I've seen. (Also, Oxenfree remains one of my favourite ghost stories.)
08:12 <ConfusionRift> That's a pretty common joystick issue. Some gunk got on the gyro.
08:13 <Golden> The practice is mostly just a fun distraction break. Also from what I played it is worth the $20
08:13 <ConfusionRift> Schism: As far as I have gotten in the game, it does have a pretty good story.
08:15 * DashedRainbows grabs her toy and trots off. Gotta be up early to go to the clinic and my last infusion
08:16 <Schism> At least that'll be the end of it for a while...?
08:16 * Schism pats the DashedRainbows, and wraps in warm blankets.
08:17 <DashedRainbows> Hopefully, rejection is not good
08:18 * ConfusionRift patpats DashedRainbows before sleepies.
08:19 * Finwe hugs a DashedRainbows.
08:33 * ConfusionRift thumbs up Ali. "Flamethrowers was a good idea." :P
08:34 <Ali> Of course, unless you killed yourself on them :P
08:34 <ConfusionRift> No more red alerts.
09:05 <Ali> Behemoths showing up I presume?
09:09 <ConfusionRift> Yes.
09:15 <ConfusionRift> Never mind, we got a problem northeast.
09:16 <ConfusionRift> Because of the cliffs, the bugs are moving in a concentrated group. This was great with the big bugs, but it's way too much for our turrets when it comes to the behemoths.
09:32 * Finwe noms on Ali's tail.
09:32 <Finwe> Lunchtiem? :3
09:33 <ConfusionRift> Now it's the west again. Blarg. Gonna deal with it later.
09:39 <Schism> Damnit. Another case of deja vu. I know I've never written this post, but...
09:41 <Schism> I'm pretty sure that dreaming of snippets of future events is a bad sign if we're in a simulation, and an even worse sign if we're not.
09:44 <ConfusionRift> o_0
09:44 <ConfusionRift> Are you okay?
09:45 <Schism> Well, I'm pretty sure I am, but one of the symptoms of madness is a lack of self-reflection, so I can't take that as a certainty.
09:45 <Schism> Also, I contain multitudes.
09:47 <ConfusionRift> Hmmm.
09:48 <Schism> Honestly, I've occasionally had dreams or fragments of doing things which actually happen. I don't know how or why, or if it's a self-fulfilling loop. I won't say that I'm some kind of seer or anything, but it's disconcerting when they happen, and it's always tiny things.
09:51 * ConfusionRift patpats Schism.
09:51 <Schism> Little things, like a forum post, or a statement to a friend. This results in a bit of worry.
09:51 * Schism snrks. "Or of course, I might be a little insane. As most folks are."
09:52 <ConfusionRift> It's... hard to say, whether it's a premonition or just a self-fulfilling prophesy.
09:52 <ConfusionRift> Either way, don't let it get to you. That's usually how one really descends into complete madness.
09:53 <Schism> I hate to say 'premonition'. Isaac Asimov wrote it, in his Foundation series, as 'psychohistory' -- that we can, with enough information about certain factors, establish a working model of the future. Self-reflection is one of those factors.
09:53 <Schism> And yeah, but it kind of itches.
09:54 <ConfusionRift> And I kinda believe on that. But still, one has to be careful with these things.
09:54 <Schism> Well, at least it's all minor things.
09:55 <Schism> I'd certainly hate to be confronted by the big ones.
09:58 <Schism> Hm. How does one, exactly, define madness? I'm crazy, and accept that. My mind does not run down the same channels as many others. Mad, though?
10:02 *** Joins: RazorSharpFang (RazorSharpF@Pony-6f7154.tpgi.com.au)
10:03 <ConfusionRift> We're crazy in out own kind of way. Madness is more of losing that grasp with common sense, self preservation, and how most common sorts of matter work. It's not exactly a definition or what madness is, but it's generally what leads to the whole unhinged aspect that one should avoid.
10:03 <RazorSharpFang> Good evening. :3
10:03 <ConfusionRift> ...why does this sound like I just wrote if for college? Bleh.
10:04 <ConfusionRift> Halloooo.
10:04 <RazorSharpFang> Just got back from university, my neural-networks are now training correctly. :3
10:04 <Schism> Hmm. Then being 'insane' as an absolute refusal of reality, and being 'crazy' is just a way of looking at reality which doesn't conform with the norms established by most folks.
10:04 <Schism> is an absolute*
10:05 <Schism> And madness can be somewhere between the two, where some aspects of reality fit into the worldview, but not all.
10:05 <ConfusionRift> People think that those who put milk on a bowl before the cereal are crazy.
10:05 <Schism> And they are. But that's not wrong. o3o
10:06 <ConfusionRift> Just as some think I'm crazy because I prefer something that is old that actually work most of the time, than something that is brand new and work whenever it feels like it.
10:07 <ConfusionRift> *works
10:07 <Schism> By that measure, 'crazy' is in itself a social construct, defined as a deviation from the norm.
10:07 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-cvibue.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)
10:08 * ConfusionRift shrugs. "As I said, everyone is crazy in their own way."
10:09 <RazorSharpFang> Suppose you have a dream of sorts, perhaps a delusion, suppose you act it out. If you act it out, and things improve -- things get better substantially, continuously and reliably -- are you sure it's a mere delusion?
10:09 <Schism> Mm. And gods alive, it would be very helpful if I could dream up something that's actually relevant, future-wise. Some stock tips for example. Brain, stop writing forum posts!
10:10 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmm.
10:13 <ConfusionRift> To be honest, I'm not exactly in the mindset for analysis. But this whole thing kinda sounds familiar, like that odd sleep thinking that used to happen to me.
10:13 <RazorSharpFang> analysis... anal ysis.
10:14 <Schism> Well, the box can't contain itself, and self-diagnosis can only go so far. I don't /think/ that my own perceptions are contrary to reality. Unfortunately, I have little to compare them to in this circumstance.
10:14 <Schism> Also, I fake a good sane.
10:15 <Schism> And then we get into the Chinese Box problem.
10:17 <RazorSharpFang> ConfusionRift, TurretHunter was killed by Behemoth worm - you having fun there?
10:17 <Schism> What was that sleep-thinking issue, ConfusionRfit?
10:17 <Schism> Rift*
10:17 <ConfusionRift> ...I was hoping the game didn't log that.
10:17 <ConfusionRift> Oh well.
10:18 <RazorSharpFang> I'm online now if you wanna play. :3
10:21 <ConfusionRift> Schism: There are times when one goes to sleep with one of those minor, and sometimes larger, issues one is trying to solve. At times, one falls asleep while still working on it, or one puts it on queue, which then falls into the subconscience. Ones head tries to find a solution, what usually happens is that is just creates the scenario for it.
10:21 <RazorSharpFang> Looks like we have some cross-continent piping for light oil. :3
10:21 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, about that...
10:22 <RazorSharpFang> Hey, as long as it works and doesn't induce excess lag.
10:22 <ConfusionRift> We got major bug problems, as you've noticed with my death alert.
10:22 <Schism> Mm, to construct a scenario where the answer is self-evident, or where the answer is meaningless. Done that myself a lot of times.
10:23 <ConfusionRift> It does one of two. Either it creates a win-win scenario with a viable solution or outcome based on what you know, or it gives you a solution to try and see scenario.
10:24 <ConfusionRift> Actually, on a more pessimistic thought, it would also just create a negative outcome with little to no solution.
10:24 <Schism> We're good at constructing no-win scenarios in our heads.
10:25 <RazorSharpFang> We'll unlock atomic bomb pretty soon, so we can start nuking enemy bases.
10:27 <ConfusionRift> I was gonna mention, that what could have happened is that maybe you saw a post you glanced, but subconsciously wanted to answer. Maybe your dream was your mind putting out an answer to this. And later on you acted upon that, giving that sense of deja vu. But wait, I'm not saying this exactly what is happening, just a... hypothesis?
10:29 <ConfusionRift> I do also believe on your statement about... Isaac Asimov(?). I do think that it's possible to, not foresee, but actually formulate a viable path to where the future might/may go to.
10:30 <Schism> Isaac Asimov wrote a series called 'Foundation', about a guy who actually predicted a lot of the future based on how people acted, and constructed an empire based on those predictions.
10:31 <Schism> Anyway, normally, that would be a reasonably good explanation, and I'm not going to discount it. It's possible that I might be imagining things -- plausible, even. It's just that these were snippets of dreams from years past, and I don't think I'm capable of that level of prognostication.
10:32 <Schism> Hari Seldon, I am not.
10:33 <ConfusionRift> The human brain is a strange thing.
10:34 <ConfusionRift> There are times when it bring this sort of information from an event that happened YEARS ago, and most likely forgotten all about it. It sure has happened to me... in the suckiest of ways.
10:34 <Schism> Eghh. Yeah, our neurons tend to fire in the strangest ways.
10:34 <Schism> What happened, if you don't mind me asking?
10:35 <ConfusionRift> You know this whole thing of one's "mind vault", right?
10:35 <Schism> I can grok the idea by context, sure.
10:36 <ConfusionRift> Well, let's just say that sometimes you want to trash something instead of saving it in the vault. Doesn't really matter what it is, just something that you want completely done and gone.
10:37 <Schism> Mm, but it never works that way.
10:37 <Schism> "The memory of fire" - you put your hand on a burner, and you'll know right away to never do it again. That gets irreparably saved.
10:38 <Schism> From an evolutionary perspective, that makes sense. From a personal one, it sucks.
10:40 <Schism> (Not the greatest metaphor, but...)
10:40 <ConfusionRift> But let's say that you start cooking something, and suddenly... a flashback. That time when you put your hand on the burner, and didn't move it out the way on time. Having to deal with the burns, your parents angry and yelling, you other relative worried (some crying), you want to just erase that for good. But so just happens the vault decides to open just out of random, and it hits hard.
10:41 <Schism> Mm, all that feedback.
10:41 <RazorSharpFang> My gut isn't happy after I drank 1.5L of coffee.
10:41 <Schism> I get that here and there.
10:41 <Schism> RSF: ... why did you drink 1.5L of coffee?
10:41 <RazorSharpFang> Because I'm compensating for lack of sleep.
10:42 <ConfusionRift> ...
10:42 <Schism> It's 8 PM, why are you trying to stay awake?
10:42 <RazorSharpFang> 6:40 PM for me now, but I was drinking it all day.
10:42 <ConfusionRift> Your body needs sleep. And with the lack of sleep, comes very slow and irregular digestion. That mess of coffee is coming to claim. :P
10:42 <Schism> Oh, you are 12 hours off. Still!
10:43 <RazorSharpFang> Yes, because West Australia. I share a timezone with China.
10:43 <Schism> 7 PM is a good time to get some sleep if you need it.
10:43 <Schism> Worst case, you wake up at 3 AM like me.
10:44 <ConfusionRift> Schism: The issue was more of a memory that was long gone and forgotten, because you did what you could to erase it. Yet, it just pops out of nowhere.
10:44 <Schism> To be honest, that also sounds like PTSD, ConfusionRift.
10:45 <Schism> Memory association and related nonsense...
10:46 <ConfusionRift> I guess. It's not like they were events that were traumatic, just that I didn't care for them and was glad to get rid of them. And then, there's that point when I dream of a dream I had before, and not a good one. Like that sleep paralysis garbage... why did I mention it?!
10:46 <ConfusionRift> It always comes back when I mention it!
10:47 <Schism> Our brains are wired very weirdly, and I'm starting to think that a good start to neurology is to get a degree in freakin' library science.
10:48 <ConfusionRift> They're huge books, and they're full of hypothesis and probability.
10:48 <Schism> And the occasional train.
10:49 * ConfusionRift puts a plastic brain on a train. "Booooo hiiiissssss!"
10:49 <Schism> I forget, did Cepheid throw this song at you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfSIZexGCxI

15:03 <RazorSharpFang> Had a good run on factorio, conquered quite a bit more territory, fortified walls and set up a repair pack distribution system for walls.
15:06 <Cepheid> Heh.
15:07 <Cepheid> I'll have to check it out, then.
15:07 <Cepheid> How's .35 working out?
15:08 <Cepheid> I wonder how viable it is to give a usable item like a gun, an equipment grid, and have it be powered by electricity instead of ammo.
15:09 <Cepheid> The issue is that I don't know how the game determines if a weapon can be fired. Does it check for ammo first?
15:10 <Cepheid> I like the latest mod changes though.
15:10 <Cepheid> It was annoying to determine the distinction between player and character.
15:10 <Cepheid> Though it's still called LuaPlayer, apparently.
15:13 <Cepheid> By the way, I have a recommendation if and when you folks buy a laptop.
15:13 <RazorSharpFang> I haven't noticed anything different in 17.35
15:13 <Cepheid> There's this type of hinge, it's common on "unibody" setups, from what I've seen. Instead of distinct hinge sections on the left and right side, they use a long hinge style.
15:14 <Cepheid> Do not buy laptops with this style.
15:15 <Cepheid> These hinge styles, for whatever, reason are prone to failure.
15:15 <Cepheid> Or other weird oddities.
15:17 <Cepheid> In my case, screws coming loose. My dad's case, no idea, but he had to repair his, as well.
15:17 <Cepheid> And his laptop is newer than mine. Only two months old.
15:22 <Cepheid> Let's see now..
15:29 <Cepheid> Apparently you can set the shooting state of entities, and retrieve the selected weapon index, but..
15:29 <Cepheid> Nothing to indicate what weapon is being used.

19:52 <Cepheid> Heh.
19:52 <Cepheid> Yeah, Koishi.
19:52 <Cepheid> As for where I discovered the song, minusT's latest video uses it.
19:52 <Schism> Yeah, you'd linked it, and it's a fine video indeed.
19:53 <Cepheid> I like the part where Koishi flails and prances all happily.
19:53 <Cepheid> That said, since I'm not familiar with the scene in the game, I have no idea about any of the dialogue. My guess though is that one particular scene has to do with someone finally being able to see through her power.
19:55 <Schism> Good representation of these assorted spell cards. https://touhou.fandom.com/wiki/Subterranean_Animism:_Extra_Spell_Cards
19:56 <Cepheid> Yeah. As I understand it, minusT uses scripting to implement all the spellcards for rendering.

20:22 <Cepheid> Nope.
20:22 <LibrarianofHope> wrong genre
20:22 <Cepheid> I think it's just caffeine getting to me, or some form of stir-craziness.
20:24 <LibrarianofHope> cabin fever like?
20:26 <Cepheid> Yeah.
20:27 <Schism> Cepheid: Get outside and take a walk, at least? (And bring an umbrella.)
20:34 <Cepheid> What I need to do is stop myself.
20:34 <Schism> I like how Utsuho is implied to be the cause of Three Mile Island.
20:34 <Schism> Also, hmm.
20:36 <Schism> I don't want to suggest alcohol, but some kind of depressant might be indicated.
20:37 <Cepheid> I don't have anything to use at the moment, and alcohol would be a bad idea given the amount of drugs I am on, antibiotics included.
20:38 <Schism> Mmm. Eat something if you haven't.

22:43 <Cepheid> Wearing headphones seems to agitate me a tad. Might be due to the feverish stuff associated with them.
22:44 <Schism> Or association with your ears causing problems.
22:44 <Cepheid> Though it might be more that I took one of my sedatives than anything else.
22:44 <Cepheid> Hmm. Before it kicks in, I should do something in my bedroom. Been dealing with a minor issue as of late, when sleeping.

23:28 <Cepheid> Any other songs you recommend in the Electro Swing style, Schism?
23:35 <Schism> There are a lot of sources, but another artist comes to mind instead. Have you heard much by Lindsey Stirling?
23:35 <Cepheid> Name is famil- Violinist, by chance?
23:35 <Schism> Yes.
23:35 <Cepheid> I am familiar with some of her work, yes.
23:35 <Schism> It's pretty close to Electroswing in general. That having been said, lemme see...
23:36 <Cepheid> Ah, that's where. She did a Radioactive cover.
23:37 <Cepheid> Ah yeah. Now I remember why she stands out. Her style of playing.
23:37 <Schism> This has a pretty good beat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2TI3nJz2Ow
23:38 <Cepheid> That'll last me a while, yes. :P
23:38 <Schism> Or, here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fjqs-qmkNug
23:38 <Cepheid> Heh.
23:40 <Cepheid> Man, Lindsey Stirling really does the dancing along with her playing.
23:40 <Schism> Yeah, she has a lot of fun with it.
23:45 <Cepheid> Indeed. It's hard to express how I feel about her performances, though. She strikes me as a 'special' individual. You know, the type who lacks some certain 'typical' trait of humanity in return for having a gift. That kind of motor control, both to play an instrument to such a degree, while dancing is..
23:46 <Cepheid> For me, the rough equivalent would probably be like, using two monitors and keyboards, one hand on each keyboard, and writing two separate applications at the same time.
23:46 <Schism> I think she'd agree she's weird. Hard to say, though.
23:47 <Schism> Cepheid: This song reminds me of you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNtP8zJFL2M
23:48 <Schism> Only vaguely, though.
23:49 <Cepheid> Oh?
23:49 <Schism> Dunno why.
23:50 <Cepheid> Heh, fair enough. I can't tell if it's the lyrical meaning or anything though. As meaning of lyrics tends to elude me.
