01:46 * Schism huzzahs, won a game of Mahjong. ... after, yanno. Losing twice in a row, badly.

01:51 <Schism> A couple of All Pon hands with 3 dora helped a lot.

02:00 <Cepheid> I also need to look into obtaining the Persona Q series.

02:01 <Cepheid> Ironically, I can't get into the SMT series.

02:01 <Cepheid> Hmm.

02:02 <Cepheid> Schism, what do you think your Persona would be?

02:05 <Schism> Absurd as it might be, I'm going to say 'Forneus'.

02:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #1818 [ http://tinyurl.com/y4yeomeq ]

02:06 <Schism> Somehow I'm quite good at making people think that I'm responsible and reasonable, trustworthy and capable of more than I am.

02:07 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, for myself, I have no idea what I'd be.

02:08 <Cepheid> It really depends on if I'm on or off my meds, really.

02:08 <Cepheid> The two personalities I exhibit based on that condition are distinct.

02:09 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s34MmDgpuqI

02:09 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

02:09 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Persona Q - Laser Beam [Extended] [HD]

02:11 <Schism> I'm all but convinced that the people who wrote western Daemonology really wanted a group of villains for their roleplaying sessions.

02:12 <Cepheid> Heh.

02:12 <Cepheid> Looking through demons to find one that matches me, are we? :P

02:12 <Cepheid> Well, daemons.

02:12 <Schism> You look at all those characters, and then you look at Buer, a guy with seven legs and the head of a lion who teaches herbalism and healing.  

02:13 <Cepheid> Heh.

02:13 <Schism> And yeah, I'm kinda looking through those.  XD

02:13 <Cepheid> I do wonder why such beings are treated as evil.  Especially the more benign or beneficial-sounding ones.

02:14 <Schism> I'm not sure they were, as such, but rather drawn from evil -- shards of an evil framework.

02:14 <Schism> Demigods, if you will.

02:15 <PinkieShy> Just saved me the embarassment.. :/

02:15 <PinkieShy> Looked at the old 1771 spain coin again.

02:15 <PinkieShy> Apparently it has "Copy" in fine print on it..

02:15 <Ali> Whoops

02:15 <Schism> Eurgh.  :<  Sorry to hear, PinkieShy.

02:16 <PinkieShy> was gonna take it friday to a pawn shop to get it tested for silver but being "copy" chances are probably next to no silver in it at all..

02:16 <Schism> Might still be worth looking at, though!

02:17 <PinkieShy> 1771 vtraque vnum  jm copy money.. that's the coin.

02:17 <PinkieShy> http://www.coindatabase.com/pic/w250/img/591pix_SpanishCoins/8R_C3_obv_1771JM_Lm.jpg near the 8 on the coin it says copy.. :(

02:17 <PinkieShy> and near the JM it says something like oato

02:18 <Schism> Even a counterfeit coin can be worth something, you know.

02:19 <Schism> Depending on the age, and the basis, a numismatist might be able to find a buyer.  Some folks even buy counterfeits of a certain age.

02:19 <Schism> So, while it's not worth as much as you thought, it might still be worth /something./

02:22 * Cepheid finishes writing his little tool that creates spritesheets out of a collection of small images.

02:24 <Cepheid> It searches through the directory and subdirectories for all PNG files, then copies them to one or more 1024x1024 atlasses, storing the metadata(Where the relevant image is in the atlasses, which atlass it's in, "name" of the sprite, based on the filename and directory path), then outputs that metadata to a json file whenever it's done.

02:26 <Cepheid> Also, I did this while impaired.  I scrapped some original code in a first attempt to implement the tool, and through research of further APIs, I simplified the tool and completed it.  It

02:26 <Cepheid> It's pretty much functional now, compared to before.

02:30 *** Quits: FruitNibbler (Eogan@Pony-ngmc6v.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

02:37 <Cepheid> Just need to add one more feature.  Namely, I need to examine the images to find the origin. o3o

02:44 <Schism> This yellow glass seems to offer a path, 4 pixels wide.

02:47 <Cepheid> Hmm?

02:47 *** Joins: Heartbreak (Heartbreak@Pony-gja4ce.mn.comcast.net)

02:48 <Schism> Heh, was joking about certain games which offer precisely that.  Also... this.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYVMIEBnpTo

02:48 * Heartbreak boops Schism.

02:50 * DashedRainbows puts a bow in Heartbreak's tail

02:50 <Heartbreak> Gah! No! *shakes it out!*

02:50 <Heartbreak> Bad DashedRainbows! Bad!

02:51 * DashedRainbows licks the mare instead

02:51 <Heartbreak> -This- happened to me recently. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/273951919955771402/579766098874859523/Pixlr_20190519152239016.jpg?width=229&height=407

02:51 <DashedRainbows> ugh

02:53 * DashedRainbows just gets another bow on her instead then

02:55 <Schism> Heartbreak, I think you might like how this is really, really... Beatles.  o3o

02:55 <PinkieShy> Just gave someone a good laugh.

02:55 <PinkieShy> We've been waiting a werewolf world for a while now..

02:55 <Heartbreak> Schism: What you talking about?

02:56 <PinkieShy> and we don't got enough players at all to start the game.. I heard someone say "I'm guessing this game is over?" The mod replied "Not enough people to start" I jokingly replied "It was over before it even started" The mod agreed and just laughed lol

02:56 <Schism> The aforementioned silliness.

02:57 <Heartbreak> I like turtles.

02:57 <Schism> Also, fuuuuugrgrgh.  I just lit something on the wrong end.

02:57 <Heartbreak> Have a pie PinkieShy.

02:57 * Schism throws a triple-chocolate pie plate at Heartbreak.

02:58 * DashedRainbows flops on the cute mare Heartbreak

02:58 * Heartbreak eyes Schism. "Your bribery will only work for so long...."

02:58 <Schism> Ut, ut, ut.  HB is not cute, or a mare, or an HB sometimes.

02:58 <Heartbreak> Gaaaaah Get off me! You are now a little filly!

02:59 * Ali flops over Schism, she started as USA and got Project Mohole again early

02:59 * Schism pushes HB into Ali, a similar unicorn mare who ish not cute at all.

02:59 <DashedRainbows> aww

02:59 * Ali is obviously not cute!

02:59 <Heartbreak> We are both not cute.

02:59 <DashedRainbows> denial

03:00 <Schism> So, clearly, HB and Ali are an OTP.

03:00 <DashedRainbows> Ali is totally not cute tho

03:00 <Heartbreak> No.

03:01 <Heartbreak> We are not an OTP.

03:01 <Schism> Sorry, it's clear!

03:01 <Heartbreak> No...

03:01 <Heartbreak> Why are you trying to ship me?

03:01 <Heartbreak> I'm not shippable.

03:01 * DashedRainbows braids HB's mane then

03:02 * Heartbreak shakes it out!

03:02 <Heartbreak> Stooooop that!

03:03 * DashedRainbows boops her with her, now tiny, wings

03:03 * Schism attempts to braid HB's mane, followed by9348sdcb9 0sxdcb9--34zzzzzzz

03:03 <Heartbreak> See! My mane shouldn't be braided!

03:04 <Heartbreak> Also, Schism, you ever give me some yellow stickers on the doc?

03:04 <Schism> Yes, but none of those regarding your hair.

03:04 <Heartbreak> Mkay... Jet needs to tend to that.

03:05 <Heartbreak> What are your ... general thoughts?

03:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Makenshi: Pony of Shadows Music: Chiptune Brony - Countdown in the Shadows [Soundtrack] [ http://tinyurl.com/y5v2mtpn ]

03:05 <Schism> Generally?  Your hair is kind of concerning.

03:06 <Schism> HB's hair has a kind of terrifying mechanic.  Complete with iron and silver.

03:06 <Heartbreak> Pfffft! You're kind of concerning!

03:06 <Heartbreak> ._. keep thossse away from usss....

03:06 <Schism> I think that HB's hair has a kind of 0 and 1 thing going on.

03:07 <Schism> Worse yet, Tony Jay has a thing.

03:08 * DashedRainbows hugs the HB

03:08 * Heartbreak gaaaaaaaaaaaaahs!

03:09 * DashedRainbows looks at HB with watery eyes

03:10 <Schism> HB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNhw6bFVhD0

03:15 <Heartbreak> Keeep away from the mark, DashedRainbows!

03:15 <DashedRainbows> Yay!

03:17 <Schism> HB: Did you know that City of Heroes is back?

03:18 <Ali> Isn't it still illegal though Schism?

03:18 <Schism> Ehmmm... /kinda./  Like emulation.

03:20 <Cepheid> Grey area.  Arguably the server should be protected by various laws regarding preservation of media.

03:22 <Schism> It gets even more grey... and is hard to say for sure.

03:22 <Schism> Ot

03:22 <Schism> It's absurd.

03:22 * Cepheid wanders off to do some last minute chores, eat something, then bed.

03:24 * Schism flings small chunks of chicken at Cepheid. Followed by onions, peppers, tomatoes, and bread.

03:25 <Heartbreak> Schism: I did not.

03:25 <Heartbreak> Let's break some hearts.

03:30 <Schism> Fear I can't.

03:33 * Schism facedesks, and continues to do so.

03:33 <PinkieShy> Want my throat to go back to normal and not being scratchy.

05:02 <Schism> "So... they broke into the program..." "No, they used the program.  Figured out how it worked, up to and including the holes.  Bill's not the only curse-breaker in the family."

05:30 <Heartbreak> I like turltes.

05:30 <Heartbreak> Turtles.

05:46 * Ali runs over Heartbreak with a train

05:47 <Heartbreak> Gah! Hey! Watch it! Why yu do this!?

05:47 <Ali> Cause memes?

05:47 * Ali brushies the Heartbreak

05:48 <Heartbreak> Gah! I reiterate this question! Why you Do This!?

05:48 <Ali> Cause even uncute unicorns need brushies

05:52 <Heartbreak> But I'm not a unicorn.

05:52 <Schism> Ali is cute, and HB is cute.  *sagenod*

05:52 <Heartbreak> I have no magical horn.

05:52 <Heartbreak> And I'm not giving the location of all your gold away.

05:52 <Schism> What about Lincoln's gold?

05:53 * Ali sits on Schism of calling her cute

05:53 <Schism> Tho I notice that HB has not declared they're cute.

05:53 <Schism> Er, that they're not cute.

05:53 <Schism> HB is of course cute in a way which matches Ali.  o3o

05:54 * Ali sits harder on Schism

05:54 * Schism reaches up and boops the Ali. "HB is only as cute as Ali."

05:54 <Heartbreak> I am not cute!

05:54 <Heartbreak> https://tinyurl.com/y52o888z

05:54 * Ali is not cute either

05:54 <Heartbreak> That's cute.

05:55 <Schism> There you go.  So, as HB is not cute, and Ali is not cute, HB is as cute as Ali.  There.

05:55 <Heartbreak> https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/4w24Dc-nRCY2OCEj_JHzwfMtAOtdLGA_jrP6loa2kSA/https/derpicdn.net/img/2019/3/11/1982916/medium.jpeg?width=493&height=407

05:56 * Ali boops Schism

05:56 * Schism boops Ali on the nosie.

05:56 * Ali counter boops Schism

05:56 * Schism countercounterboops with a rubber Gummy!

05:57 <Schism> Ali is, of course, still not cute.

05:57 * Ali sage nods

05:57 <Schism> And HB is just as not-cute as Ali.

05:58 <Schism> ConfusionRift, clearly you agree that just as Ali is not cute, HB is likewise not cute?

05:58 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.

05:58 * Ali sits on ConfusionRift

05:59 <ConfusionRift> What are you talking about? They are absolutely- (feels as some dark force slowly surrounds him, awaiting an answer) ...NOT...cute. Not cute at all!

05:59 <Schism> Exactly!  And they're not-cute in the exact same way.

06:00 * ConfusionRift feels said force move away. "Phew."

06:00 <ConfusionRift> Of course! 0_0;

06:01 <ConfusionRift> They are NOT cute in any way, shape, or form, as any not-cute thing would be... not cute at all.

06:01 * ConfusionRift isn't sure he said that right.

06:01 * Schism pats the HB and the Ali, carefully, in a not-cute way.

06:01 * Ali yawnsnugs on Schism and ConfusionRift

06:02 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali... ALSO in a not-cute way.

06:02 * Schism noms on Ali's ears, though.

06:04 * ConfusionRift watches another video of Six Nights at Flumpies... or so... you get it. :P

06:05 <Schism> Hum.  It'll take a little while to get a game of mahjong going in FFXIV.

06:05 <Schism> Maybe.  It's 3/4.

06:06 * Ali boops ConfusionRift with FNAF VR

06:06 <ConfusionRift> Ali: Exactly what I was watching. :P

06:07 <ConfusionRift> One comment. (turns right, stares at this massive vent) Why?!

06:09 * Ali licks ConfusionRift

06:09 <Schism> Hum.  Really looking forward to beating my fellows' faces in mahjong... :3

06:10 * ConfusionRift ruffles Ali. :P

06:10 * Schism eats all of ConfusionRift's tiles and comes up with a 4-kan hand.

06:11 <ConfusionRift> ...yaaaaay?

06:11 <ConfusionRift> I don't know how to play it. :P

06:12 <Schism> Think of it this way.  You need to make a 14-tile hand, 3 sets of 4 and one pair.  A Kan means you have a triple in your hand, and then someone discards the fourth tile.  It's disgustingly rare.

06:12 <Schism> 4 sets of 3*

06:13 <Schism> That's about all I'll say.  :P

06:27 <DashedRainbows> Yay! Now to sleep

06:28 <Schism> And possessed of a thousand-yard stare.

06:28 * DashedRainbows trots off

06:29 <ConfusionRift> Oh, have a good one.

06:54 <Schism> Still convinced that you should play CoH at some point, Rifty.

06:55 <ConfusionRift> What was that again?

06:55 <Schism> City of Heroes.  An MMO which is now entirely privately run, outside of NCSoft's hands.

06:56 <ConfusionRift> See, the MMO part is what kinda kills it for me.

06:56 <Schism> That's fair.

06:59 <Ali> MMO's make me sad

06:59 <ConfusionRift> That's... one of the reasons. On top of other expectations that are very likely to follow. So it's kinda hard for me to jump into one.

07:00 <Ali> Two things that scare me about MMO's

07:00 <Ali> I'm stupid shy and they get boring after awhile.  Also playing an MMO alone is like the worst feeling ever.

09:03 <Schism> rAdm. Finwe.

09:03 <Schism> Oh right.  Already doffed my tiles.  o3o

09:04 <Schism> Ali and ConfusionRift: Mahjong is a confusing game.  o3o;

09:05 <ConfusionRift> Seems like it. :P

09:05 <Schism> Okay, so this part is easy enough.  You get 13 cards in your hand. Make a set of 14 cards -- 4 sets of 3, and a pair.  Draw a card, and if you pull that off, you win.

09:07 <Schism> Draw a card, if you can complete your hand you win, and if you can't you discard a card.

09:07 <Schism> Face-up, so others can see it.

09:08 <Schism> If someone discards a card which completes a set in your hand, you can steal it, and put that set face-up.

09:08 <Ali> Sounds more like phase 10

09:09 <Schism> And if the person right before you discards a card which completes a run in your hand, you /can/ steal it, and also put that set face-up.

09:09 <Schism> And that's... basically the setup.

09:16 <Ali> Sounds like phase 10 to me :P

09:22 * Ali noms Schism ear

09:22 * ConfusionRift flops.

09:23 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift

09:25 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali.

09:28 * Ali leans into the pets

09:38 <ConfusionRift> Heh... Other Games Done Casually. :P

09:38 <Finwe> Schism: The card game is called "Shanghai".

09:38 <Finwe> At least around these parts. o3o

09:43 <Finwe> The rules are almost the same as in Mahjong.

09:50 <Schism> Well then.  o3o

09:52 <Schism> Here, have some cute.  https://twitter.com/i_iove_nature/status/1134911061172269056?s=20

09:54 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, real cute. (on the other side of the fence)

09:54 <Schism> Yeah, you don't want to be in the same room as a cheetah.  X3

09:54 <Schism> Usually, anyways.

11:19 <Finwe> I'm not an expert on Equestrian celestial mechanics.

11:20 <Finwe> And there isn't that much information available. We know that there is a sun, a moon and Equestria, and that's about it.

16:21 <Schism> Impressive, that is.

16:25 <Cepheid> Indeed.

16:47 <Schism> Randomly, Lumindia: prescribed naproxen?  That must have been quite the dosage.

16:47 <Schism> (Yes, a few days late, but I was just reminded of that.)

16:48 <Lumindia> 500mg per dose

16:48 <Lumindia> one in the morning, one in the evening

16:48 <Schism> Hm.  Still not out of spec.  That's basically just 'take two Aleve, twice daily'.

16:49 <Lumindia> I mean, it's covered by my health insurance, so... *shrug*

16:49 <Schism> Well, beats paying $10 a bottle, I guess.

17:08 <Cepheid> Ah yes, the first real labyrinth is the Lush Woodlands, from Etrian Odyssey 4.

17:08 * Cepheid takes 440mg of naproxen daily.

17:15 <Cepheid> Hello, first FOE of the game.

17:23 <Cepheid> I can't code much today.  I ran out of one of my drugs, the important one, so...

17:29 <Cepheid> Seriously, the way they do that with the first floor of the Lush Woodlands is... evil.

17:44 <Cepheid> For clarification:  Floor 1 of the Lush Woodlands is identical to the first floor of the Lush Woodlands in EO4.  Absolutely, 100% identical.

18:40 * DashedRainbows flops on Ali then

18:40 <Ali> Eh, close enough

18:40 * Ali snuggles on DashedRainbows

18:42 * DashedRainbows turns into a filly and licks her

21:25 <Ali> ITS THE END OF THE WORLD

21:25 <Ali> Meanwhile here on IRC, everything is peachy keen

21:26 <Cepheid> I only posted that in response to Lumindia's commentary.

21:27 <Colgate> for those wondering about that, google cloud engine(GCE) went down, and that runs basically everything hosted on google

22:16 <Cepheid> Huh.

22:16 <Cepheid> Emergency alert service report on my TV box.

22:16 <Cepheid> There's a tornado to the north of me.

22:19 <Schism> Peculiar.

22:20 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/SalatKonigin/status/1135305347818827777

22:21 <Cepheid> In any case..

22:21 <Cepheid> I need a protector.

22:21 <Cepheid> Someone has to be pulled out of the squad for it.  I'd rather keep Ali around for EXP boosting abilities and other beneficial stuff, but I absolutely need a protector.

22:21 <Cepheid> I'll put on the Memory Conch, though, so people stuck back in town get EXP anyways.

22:21 <Schism> Pfff... password protection in Deus Ex is interesting.  And fun.  https://qntm.org/smashthestate

22:26 * Cepheid creates a protector, gives them best armor and shield he can find, and Front Guard.

22:26 <Schism> Well.  This is... frightening.  Cepheid, you know the Chinese Box argument?

22:26 <Schism> Or Chinese Room, for that matter.

22:27 <Cepheid> Yes, why?

22:27 <Schism> Here's a fun story which is kind of about it.  o3o  https://qntm.org/difference

22:32 <Cepheid> Hmm lengthy read.  I'll read it later. o3o

22:32 <Cepheid> Geezus.

22:32 <Cepheid> The alert is going out in every way.

22:33 <Cepheid> It alerted our box, interfered with the news, and so on.

22:33 <Schism> The author also writes for the Foundation.  Also, yeesh.  o.o

22:35 <Cepheid> Yeah, the only real problem is the alert was broadcasted after it went past us to the north.

23:09 <Schism> Huh.  No two ways about it: qntm's Antimemetics Division is some of the best writing on the entire site.

23:10 <Cepheid> Do I want to max out Front Guard yet...?  It increases the cost from 4 to 9 TP, but I'm not sure the defensive boost is required just yet.

23:10 <Cepheid> Right, I'm gonna go with Taunt.

23:14 * DashedRainbows flops on Ali

23:14 * Ali squeaks at DashedRainbows

23:15 * DashedRainbows curls up and licks Ali

23:15 * Ali squeaks and licks DashedRainbows back

23:16 <Cepheid> The alerts aren't stopping.  Environment Canada is intent on letting us know they're tracking the storm.

23:18 <Cepheid> It's like, 80km away now.

23:18 <Cepheid> I appreciate the alerts, but these alerts are meant to be warnings for regions about incoming storms and tornados.  I'd prefer alerts about storms that are approaching.

23:18 * Heartbreak peeks.

23:19 * DashedRainbows licks Heartbreak. yo

23:19 <Heartbreak> Gaaaaaah! No! licking!!!!

23:23 * DashedRainbows sniffs HB instead

23:26 <Cepheid> More tornados.

23:26 <Cepheid> One near Alfred, one near Rockland.

23:27 * Heartbreak glares at DashedRainbows...

23:27 <Heartbreak> Creeeeeeeeeeeeeepy...

23:28 <DashedRainbows> fine, fine... flops on HB

23:28 <Cepheid> If there's one thing about Spitfire being skittish, it's that he's effectively our emergency alert now.

23:29 <Cepheid> If he hears something loud and unknown, he freaks now.

23:32 * Ali freaks out near Cepheid

23:59 * Lumindia hugs Ali tight
