00:01 <DashedRainbows> there should be an Ali appreciation day

00:01 <Ali> That will never happen

00:01 <Cepheid> ...

00:01 <DashedRainbows> aww

00:01 * ADragonDreaming appreciates Ali

00:02 <Cepheid> The VA for Geralt in The Witcher 3 is now the voice of a GPS in Euro Truck Simulator 2.

00:02 <ADragonDreaming> that's interesting.

00:02 <ADragonDreaming> ...I'd probably prefer him as an option on Google maps, though.

00:02 <DashedRainbows> well, apprecation for Ali runs high it seems

00:03 <Cepheid> Heh.

00:03 <Cepheid> But yeah, having Geralt direct me around with his usual witty banter would be nice.

00:03 <Cepheid> Strangely calming.

00:07 <Cepheid> So my dad suggested some ideas for the desk I'm making.  One of the more interesting ideas he came up with is foldout sections.

00:10 * DashedRainbows brushies Ali, cause appreciation

00:22 *** Joins: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net)

00:28 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-hp1gcg.v03v.m095.067c.2001.IP)

00:39 <Cepheid> Okay.

00:39 <Cepheid> Killed the Beserker King to be presented with...

00:40 <Cepheid> ... A full-strength Berserker King.

00:44 <Cepheid> The way they introduced it was creepy, too.

00:45 <Cepheid> It's sitting at a spot where a guard and two injured characters were, and it's facing away.  It's munching on something.

00:45 <Cepheid> It then slowly turns to face you, and gets up.

00:46 *** Joins: Cyan_Spark (Cyan_Spark@sparks.only.last.so.long)

00:49 <Cepheid> Hmm.  Ghost Owl, rare drop.  "A giant, vibrant-patterned owl that can release lightning from its beak."  Weak to pierce, sleep, head bind.  Resists all elemental attacks.  Rest is normal.

00:52 <Cepheid> Well, kill via lightning wasn't it.

00:59 * DashedRainbows makes small small horse noises at PinkieShy

01:00 <Cepheid> How... curious.

01:00 * PinkieShy hugs DashedRainbows

01:00 <Cepheid> An unusual-looking door.

01:00 <PinkieShy> My voice still sound a little horse to me.. and throat scratchy.. But hopefully it stops

01:00 <PinkieShy> I want it to be normal again.

01:01 <DashedRainbows> sick?

01:01 <Cepheid> Hum.  Keyed door.  Interesting.

01:01 <Cepheid> I guess the left half of this map is inacessible, then.

01:02 <PinkieShy> DashedRainbows its not sore or anything.. Just scratchy and such..

01:02 <DashedRainbows> ugh still

01:02 <PinkieShy> I did yell the other night though while chasing my dog.. Trying to get him to obey me..

01:03 <PinkieShy> chasing him as he got loose and such.. That could have done it.. and my vocal cords and such is healing... idk

01:04 <DashedRainbows> I should look into getting a service dog but to help with my disability it'd need to be very strong

01:15 *** Quits: Stormspark (stormspark@Pony-25m.dcd.98.172.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

01:20 <Cepheid> Ah, NPC tells me what I need.

01:20 <Cepheid> I need to bind the owl's head.

01:21 <Cepheid> I, unfortunately, lack head binding.

01:22 <Cepheid> Guess I'll poke a nightseeker.

01:23 <Cepheid> He shall be named... Tim.

01:24 <Ali> Not Tim

01:24 <Cepheid> Oh bah.  Nightseeker isn't the binder.

01:24 <Cepheid> Tim, you're fired.

01:24 <Cepheid> Ah, it's Pugilist.

01:25 * Cepheid hires Tim, a pugilist.

01:27 *** Joins: Cyan|Desktop (Cyan_Spark@Pony-te2rql.biz.rr.com)

01:27 *** Quits: Cyan_Spark (Cyan_Spark@sparks.only.last.so.long) (Connection closed)

01:30 <Cepheid> Hum, alerts are done.

01:40 *** Cyan|Desktop is now known as Cyan_Spark

01:49 <Cepheid> Hmm.

01:50 <Cepheid> That is one ominous looking layout.  Definitely a boss behind this door.

01:52 <Cepheid> ... Yep.

01:57 <Cepheid> Schism:  Interesting.  First real "boss" of the game, and... it doesn't have a rare drop?

01:58 <Schism> Hmm, wonder if that'll be an ongoing theme.  I hate bosses with rare drops.

01:58 <Cepheid> Mmm.

01:58 <Cepheid> There's actually another theory, that I have.

01:58 <Schism> Hm.  While I'm not a fan of many aspects of Firefox, if Chrome is going to keep adjusting its permissions to prevent the use of uBlock Origin and associated add-ons, and I refuse to use Brave because my opinion of its dev lead can't be stated in this channel, then I'm going to stick with FF.

01:58 <Cepheid> Based on OST stuff, mostly.

01:58 <Cepheid> Yeah, I switched to FF a while back.

01:59 <Cepheid> Anyways, the theory:  Conditional boss drops are specific to the Yggdrasil Tree bosses.

01:59 <Schism> Oh, /conditional/ drops I like, I just hate relying on the RNG for rare ones.

01:59 <Schism> And hmmm.

01:59 <Cepheid> Further expansion upon the theory:  The game is comprised of a number of stratums from other games in the series.  For example, I'm in EO4's Lush Woodlands.

02:00 <Cepheid> My guess is that, after I finish this, I'll find myself in the Yggdrasil Tree.

02:00 <Cepheid> Which itself, you can see on the world map, as being hollow in some manner.

02:00 <Schism> That I've heard, that each stratum is from one of the earlier games (with a 6th unique to EON).

02:00 <Cepheid> There's a glowing blue light radiating from the central.

02:00 <Cepheid> I know, from the music, what stratums those are.

02:01 <Schism> I kind of have to wonder if they planned that from the start.

02:01 <Cepheid> It's the "Cross" game of the series, so yes, they planned it.

02:02 <Cepheid> However, there's more than a simple case of "combining multiple games."

02:02 <Schism> Oh, I meant the start of the series.

02:02 <Cepheid> Heh.

02:02 <Cepheid> Hard to say.

02:02 <Cepheid> They did retcon the first game, after all.

02:02 <Schism> Five games, and then a sixth which combines them all... is just a teensy bit similar to the layout of the strata.

02:02 <Cepheid> Hmm, actually I can't guess entirely at the stratums because I forgot one thing.

02:03 <Cepheid> Music from other games are used for sublabyrinths.

02:03 <Schism> Hmm.  Including EO Mystery Dungeon, I trust.

02:03 <Cepheid> Most probable, first stratum from each game.

02:03 <Cepheid> Yeah.

02:03 <Cepheid> Though I'm not 100% certain there.

02:04 <Cepheid> The basic gist of the storyline is...  Hmm, lemme finish up this mapping, then I'm gonna go poke the intro video again.

02:04 <Schism> Oh, did you ever clear that Star Devourer?

02:04 <Cepheid> Not yet.

02:04 <Cepheid> It is literally the only thing I have left to kill in 5.

02:05 * Schism nods.

02:05 <Cepheid> Which makes EOV the most likely game that'll be next on the 100% list.

02:05 <Cepheid> After that, likely EO1 Untold.

02:05 <Cepheid> Since I've at the true final boss of that one.

02:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #1819 [ http://tinyurl.com/y2o5za68 ]

02:06 <Cepheid> Basically, the problem with the boss room here is what's in it.

02:06 <Cepheid> There are two Cutters, low-level FOEs at this point, but still enough to make a boss impossible.

02:07 <Schism> Hmm.  So you get what, six turns before they slide in?

02:07 <Cepheid> I think it's more about staying out of their LOS and not aggroing them.

02:07 <Cepheid> And it's actually less turns than that.

02:08 <Schism> Yech.

02:08 <Cepheid> Yeah.

02:08 <Cepheid> It's "wind a path to avoid the FOEs."

02:08 <Cepheid> I just got by 'em, no prob.

02:09 <Schism> But then, the boss.

02:09 <Cepheid> And this berserker king is at max strength too, not half HP like the other one was.

02:11 <Cepheid> https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/etrian/images/5/50/Imperial_EO4.png/revision/latest?cb=20130316184147 What Adra looks like, for the most part, in my game.

02:11 <Schism> Good look for them.  o3o

02:13 <Cepheid> Hum, good, got a pinch move back on Schism.

02:13 <Cepheid> Would have liked for Dreamer to get theirs back too, but do what you can, I guess.

02:15 <Cepheid> Cutting it close with resources.

02:16 <Cepheid> 25% of 4067 is approximately... 1000 HP.  Dang.  Really gonna be cutting it.

02:18 <Cepheid> Too close.  All out of TP, Cepheid dead, one more turn would have spelled doom.

02:19 <Cepheid> ...

02:19 <Cepheid> What in the alm-

02:19 <Cepheid> ...

02:19 <Cepheid> Really, Atlus?

02:20 <Cepheid> Freaking. Really?

02:20 <Cepheid> Hello EO1, Straum 2 boss.

02:20 <Schism> Wellll.

02:22 <Cepheid> As a nice boost, they restore the player's team, TP, and boost gauges before fighting.

02:22 <Cepheid> Though it doesn't let you return to town.

02:23 <Schism> Does it let you save?

02:24 <Cepheid> Yes.

02:24 <Cepheid> But it's advise to save in a different slot, for obvious reasons.

02:24 <Cepheid> Guh, this is not gonna end well.

02:24 <Schism> Well, at least that's a help.  Though... ... well, yes.

02:24 <Cepheid> Cernnunos has an unusual battle setup.

02:25 <Cepheid> Ah, they did not retain it.

02:27 <Cepheid> Yeah, I can't win this.

02:29 <Cepheid> Time to go kill a missing FOE I haven't murdered yet, and then explore around for items and goodies and more EXP.

02:32 <Cepheid> Actually, I'm gonna bring in another character.  Someone with ranged attacks.  Survivalist.  Use them for handling the adds alongside Cepheid's magic.

02:46 <Cepheid> Right, time for bed.

03:23 <PinkieShy> So.. I had MLP S9 spoiled for me.. :/

03:23 <Schism> Welp.  That was fun.  Tripped over my own shoes, and very nearly ate a table.

03:23 <PinkieShy> All the way up to like ep 14.. :(

03:25 <Ali> PinkieShy, same here

03:25 <Ali> No thanks to youtube

03:25 <Ali> But first off how 14?  That shouldn't even been aired in italy yet

03:28 <PinkieShy> I believe it was ep 14 at least..

03:28 <PinkieShy> Maybe i got the numbers mixed up..

03:29 <PinkieShy> But a big chunk was spoiled.. :( Esp one that I didn't expect that would have been good to see when it aired here..

03:29 * PinkieShy licks Ali a billion times

03:29 * Ali squeaks at PinkieShy

04:16 * DashedRainbows looks up at Ali and barks

04:16 * Ali jumps and squeaks

04:17 <DashedRainbows> Giddy up horsey!

04:20 * Ali boops DashedRainbows, unicorns aren't good diddy up horsies

04:20 <Ali> How did I hit d?

04:21 * DashedRainbows looks at Ali with watery eyes

04:33 * DashedRainbows boops PinkieShy's horn. Magic!

04:51 * DashedRainbows also boops Ali's horn repeatedly

04:51 * Ali boops DashedRainbows back repeatedly

04:53 * DashedRainbows rubs her snoot and stomps around. Wanted to see magic

04:54 * Ali levitates DashedRainbows

04:54 <DashedRainbows> Meh, has wings

04:55 * Ali puffycheeks, they wanted magic but they didn't specify what /kind/

04:56 <PinkieShy> I'm so sleepy..

04:57 <DashedRainbows> True, true. Hum how about transmutation

04:57 <PinkieShy> Couldn't get to sleep until 3:15am last night..

04:57 <PinkieShy> Woke at 8:30am.. so really not much sleep..

04:57 <Ali> DashedRainbows, Ali is only good with levitation magic.

04:57 * Ali rolls around, she didn't go to magic kindergarden cause she wasn't special enough.

05:00 <DashedRainbows> Aww hugs Ali

05:06 <PinkieShy> First time was major disappointment and just ruined my day and week..

05:06 <RazorSharpFang> Interesting, despite following more people than ever before on Tumblr, there's fewer posts on my dashboard than ever before. Maybe tumblr really is on its last legs.

05:07 <PinkieShy> Well.. Verizon media owns Tumblr..

05:08 <Ali> Well ever since the NSFW backlash, Tumblr has suffered pretty hard.

05:09 <DashedRainbows> Ppl need to *yay* animals and y'know

05:11 <DashedRainbows> Now I actually go

05:13 <Ali> That would be too simple

05:13 <Jackie> Instead of everything

05:16 <RazorSharpFang> 'Cos young Jim is gonna google-image search "succubus"

05:16 * Jackie is an innocent succubus

05:17 * Floof eeee

05:17 *** Floof is now known as Filly_Nightmares

05:17 <Jackie> I just bet teens already know what a succubus is

05:18 <RazorSharpFang> Discord literally does have sub-10s on there

05:18 <Jackie> There are succubi in video games

05:18 <Jackie> Lol

05:19 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah, but none that I know of that are targetted at sub-10s.

05:20 <Jackie> https://www.pcgamer.com/succubus-is-an-action-oriented-agony-spin-off-coming-to-steam/

05:20 <Jackie> Awesome game though

05:21 * Ali snugs on the RazorSharpFang

05:21 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Jackie tummy

05:21 * Jackie purrs

05:21 <RazorSharpFang> Jackie, literally a spin-off of an R-18 rated game. Not suitable for discussion here.

05:21 * Filly_Nightmares purrs and floofs!

05:21 <Jackie> Why is EAD dead?

05:21 <Ali> Cause IRC is dead and Discord ruined it :P

05:22 <RazorSharpFang> Freenode's still used mind you

05:22 <Ali> So is IRC but doesn't mean its not the in thing

05:22 <RazorSharpFang> I'm active on irc://irc.freenode.net/##Politics because of course I am.

05:22 <Ali> I mean Skype was the go to thing

05:22 <Ali> Pft politics

05:22 <Jackie> Discord sucks but I minimally use it

05:22 <RazorSharpFang> There's quite a few Tankies in there. (People who liked Stalin)

05:23 <Jackie> What makes this channel better than Discord EqD?

05:23 <Ali> Probably mods?  Though I'm the only one left it seems

05:23 <RazorSharpFang> ConfRift still exists.

05:23 <Ali> I've heard the EqD discord is about as well modded as CoD is for 10 year olds swearing

05:24 <Ali> About the only other one besides Shimmer but she's become less frequent

05:24 <Jackie> Though they won't allow me in uwu

05:24 <Jackie> They don't respect races XD

05:25 <RazorSharpFang> You can always create a new account and not be a succ this time.

05:25 <Jackie> I don't think i'll join there

05:25 <Jackie> Since I've heard news bias on EqD

05:27 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Ali

05:27 * Ali squeaks at Filly_Nightmares

05:27 <Jackie> Idk if I'm the only one who stops reading EqD

05:27 <Jackie> *stopped

05:28 <Ali> Only when they spoil episodes that aren't US shown *puffycheeks*

07:53 * ConfusionRift sighs.

07:53 <Schism> As for the link between good and evil... "Hope."

07:53 <Schism> Or at least that's my answer.

07:54 <ConfusionRift> Well, yeah, I can see that. One's force of will drive by a (common) cause.

07:55 <ConfusionRift> *driven

07:55 <Schism> I imagine that Princess Celestia's answer would be 'Time'.

07:55 <ConfusionRift> Some would take the fire out, others would run, and others would move everyone else before moving out.

07:56 <ConfusionRift> I guess one can say it's those shades of gray between good and evil.

07:57 <Schism> One of those things that's both, more like.

07:57 <ConfusionRift> I dunno why, but I think Princess Luna would be more mindful about time.

07:58 <Schism> Nah.  Time'd been weighing upon Sunbutt for a thousand years.

08:02 <Schism> No clue what Luna's answer would be, though.  It might be that she would answer 'pain.'

08:04 <ConfusionRift> Gear Sparks: "I think it's a matter of perspective and objectivity." | Flakkermane: "I think it's that force fueled by a cause."

08:06 <Schism> And the funny thing is that almost no answer is actually /wrong./

08:08 <ConfusionRift> Rift: (shrugs) | G.S.: "That's not an answer." | Rift: Fine. ... You. | G.S.: "Me? That... that doesn't make sense." | Rift: Yeah, I thought you wouldn't get it. | G.S.: "It's just... so vague. Oh, who am I kidding? Of course your answer wouldn't make sense." | Rift: You'll eventually get it. | G.S.: (sighs) "Forget it."

08:09 * Schism snrks. "That, on the other hand, is a /good/ answer."

08:10 <Schism> It's probably a terrible sign that I read G.S. as "Gold Saucer".

08:10 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-cvibue.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)

08:15 <Schism> "Are you alright?" "You bucked me in the nethers!" "I was given to understand that the point of martial arts is to put your opponent down as quickly, efficiently, and safely as possible." "That's as may be, but it STILL HURTS!"

08:17 <ConfusionRift> "We were practicing! PRACTICING!" (rolls in pain)

08:18 <Schism> "And now you have more practice getting hit there.  So you'll know not to do it again."

08:23 * Schism intones, "The idea is silly, but the concept is solid."

08:24 * Schism playfully throws a boot at ConfusionRift's head.

08:25 <Schism> Learn to dodge.  o3o

08:26 <Schism> Ya wanna play a quick round of the hedgehog game?  With the music off this time.

08:28 <ConfusionRift> Let me check something first.

08:29 <Schism> Sure.  I've also got a decent setup...

08:30 <Schism> Infinite ropes.  o3o  

08:30 <ConfusionRift> Yep, seems I got plenty of time.

08:31 <Schism> Password is 1212.

09:39 <Schism> Darnit, ConfusionRift beat me readily.  X3

09:39 <ConfusionRift> That was close for a while. :P

09:40 <ConfusionRift> And that wonky roping. Hehehe.

09:40 <Schism> I'm sad that I didn't get any bullhocky grenade throws.

09:40 <ConfusionRift> I'm cold with grenades, so pfffttt.

09:41 <ConfusionRift> Also, I got garbage for pick ups. -_-

09:41 <ConfusionRift> A bunch of airstrikes.

09:41 <Schism> That ballgun was the ONLY good pickup I got, so nyah.

09:41 <ConfusionRift> And the hellgrenade?

09:41 <Schism> Turned out to be full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

09:42 <ConfusionRift> Aah, right.

09:42 <ConfusionRift> Also the second dynamite and cake. -_-

09:42 <Schism> I'll adjust the settings again later.  XD;

09:43 <ConfusionRift> It think it was alright. Just bad luck of the draw.

09:43 <Schism> That was still a good game, though.

09:43 * ConfusionRift nods.

09:43 <ConfusionRift> And getting stuck was funny. :P

09:43 <Schism> We both burned a teleport on that one spot.  X3

09:45 <ConfusionRift> Yep, and opened that other pit as well.

09:46 <Schism> Ali!  You need to play this game with us.

09:47 <Schism> Awr, Ali's not here.

09:47 <ConfusionRift> Yep, left a while ago.

09:47 <ConfusionRift> An hour and a half?

09:47 <ConfusionRift> Still, more people could be fun... or crowded. :P

09:47 <Schism> She still needs to play it.

09:48 <Schism> Lumindia?

09:48 <Schism> Mneghnmf.

09:49 <ConfusionRift> Pfffreebee.

09:53 <Lumindia> ?

09:54 <Lumindia> I was summoned?

09:54 <Lumindia> Schism, why have you summoned me

09:55 <ConfusionRift> Oh, he was mentioning that maybe probably perhaps with some possibility like Hedgewars? (shrugs)

09:56 <Schism> Lumindia, you need to play Hedgewars sometime.  It's just Worms, but free.

09:56 <Schism> And blowing each other up is always enjoyable.

10:02 <Schism> CR and I just played a game with entirely too many ninja ropes, and it turned out to be a blast.

10:04 <ConfusionRift> :P

10:05 * Schism stage-whispers, "He won."

10:05 <ConfusionRift> It was still pretty close.

10:06 <Schism> Well, kinda.  You still had two hogs in the end.

10:06 <Schism> And I think you used... /one/ switch hog?

10:07 <ConfusionRift> True, but I could have messed it all up real easy. It happened before, with them failed ninja ropes.

10:07 <ConfusionRift> Actually, I wasted all the switches. :P

10:07 <Schism> I told you in the last game, tab switches!

10:08 <ConfusionRift> No no, I actually used them.

10:08 <ConfusionRift> Like, I switched constantly.

10:08 <Schism> Just not well.  :S<

10:08 <ConfusionRift> There were a few hogs in bad positions.

10:08 * Schism sighs, and lightly baps ConfusionRift with a rolled-up newspaper.

10:08 <Schism> Though repositioning isn't the worst option.

10:09 <ConfusionRift> And I didn't want to do the long trip to move one hog to the other side of the map, so... switch!

10:09 <ConfusionRift> And then there was the pit...

10:10 * DashedRainbows chews on her chew toy by ConfusionRift

10:10 * ConfusionRift pets DashedRainbows while she plays with ehr toy. :P

10:10 <ConfusionRift> *her

10:11 <ConfusionRift> Alas, they were good games, despite our rusty controls. :P

10:12 * ConfusionRift hungers. "Urgh... oh, maybe I should make a double decker sammich."

10:13 <Schism> H... m.  Hey, ConfusionRift, did you ever play Operation Neptune?

10:14 <Schism> Also, have you ever read the Antimemetics Division stories on the Foundation?

10:19 * DashedRainbows drops her toy and trots off to sleep

10:20 <Schism> Before you sleep, DashedRainbows -- do recall that there is no antimemetics division.

10:20 <ConfusionRift> Doesn't sound familiar. o_0

10:21 <Schism> I should hope not.  :P

10:22 <Schism> ConfusionRift: See, there are SCPs which keep themselves secret, by keeping people from remembering them.

10:23 <Schism> And then there are these folks.. who are forgotten.  http://www.scp-wiki.net/antimemetics-division-hub

10:26 <Schism> qntm also has an SCP-001 situation.  An SCP we can't contain, because we can't even look at it.

10:30 <Schism> How, after all, do you contain an idea?

10:31 <ConfusionRift> By keeping others from having the same idea? (shrugs)

10:32 <Schism> ConfusionRift, Operation Neptune, by the way, is a fun little game by Broderbund and The Learning Company, and you might wanna play it sometime.

10:33 <Schism> It involves a submarine getting sent out to recover small datalogs.

10:34 <ConfusionRift> Super Solvers: Operation Neptune?

10:34 <Schism> If you do, play the novice run first, and then the Expert -- the story makes more sense that way.

10:34 <Schism> Yup!

10:35 <Schism> Also, you'll get eaten by fewer sharks if you play it in that order.

10:35 <ConfusionRift> It looks familiar.

10:36 <Schism> IT's not, you're just thinking of Ecco the Dolphin.

10:36 * Schism innocent.

10:36 <Princess-Luna> Ecco was a good time tho

10:36 <Princess-Luna> great little game series

10:36 <Schism> ON is good, honestly.

10:37 <ConfusionRift> No, this looks very familiar. And I know of Ecco. :P

10:37 <Schism> CR: Now, let's be honest.  Did you grow up in the '90s?

10:37 <ConfusionRift> Yep.

10:37 <Schism> Then you PROBABLY remember Treasure Cove.

10:38 <Schism> That'll do it, really.  And "Gizmos and Gadgets".

10:38 <ConfusionRift> Math! Aaaaah!!!

10:38 <Schism> Aha!  And ahahaaha.

10:39 <Schism> This is a very silly conversation, but I like it nonetheless.

10:40 <ConfusionRift> I should point out I wasn't very big with PC games, since it was mostly for work and school.

10:41 <Schism> Then once you've finished with Operation Neptune, I suggest 'Ancient Empires'.

10:41 <ConfusionRift> Wait... now I remember! I think you mentioned ON to someone at some point.

10:41 <Schism> Cepheid, probably.

10:41 <ConfusionRift> That's how I knew of it.

10:41 <ConfusionRift> Yep! Sounds about right.

10:41 <Schism> Huh.  Well, now you know, and it IS a very difficult game.

10:42 <Schism> You probably wouldn't be able to beat it on Expert.  Too much work.

10:42 <ConfusionRift> It is MATH!!!

10:42 <Schism> Yeah, nothing you could ever beat.

10:44 <ConfusionRift> I mean... I'm not that dense, but it is certainly a weakness of mine.

10:45 * ConfusionRift hears in the background. "How does a machine not know math?!"

10:45 <Schism> Eh, they give you a calculator.  Honestly, the math portions aren't anywhere near as problematic as the actual gameplay, which is absurdly difficult.

10:46 <ConfusionRift> "He can counter a syntax paradox, but he blows a fuse with a fractional equation?!"

10:47 <Schism> If that fractional equation is 1/0...

10:47 <Schism> But seriously, try Operation Neptune sometime.  Math is easy.  Dodging a sea cucumber is absurdly difficult.

10:49 <ConfusionRift> Wait... isn't that 1 divided by 0?

10:49 <Schism> Yes...?

10:49 <ConfusionRift> Real funny. | (throws her clipboard) "How does he keep doing that?!"

10:50 <Schism> Play the damn game!

10:50 <ConfusionRift> Okay, geez, I'll play it. :P

10:51 * Schism snrks. "And also, look up "Gizmos and Gadgets". I think you might approve of that, too."

10:51 <ConfusionRift> Well, not now. It's pretty late. I also have to find it, which shouldn't be an issue.

10:51 <Schism> They're pretty easy to find, yea.

10:52 <Schism> Anyway, rest well!

10:52 <ConfusionRift> Not yet, have to go through the sammich and juice. :P

10:53 <ConfusionRift> Also, I think I might like Gizmos and Gadgets.

10:54 * ConfusionRift thuds.

10:55 <ConfusionRift> Never mind. Getting really tired. Well, catcha laters!

10:55 * ConfusionRift patpats Schism before crashing.

16:19 <LibrarianofHope> schism have you seen good omens yet?

16:20 <Cepheid> Hum, break time from games.  Want to work on some code.  What should I d-  There was something I was supposed to work on next, but I can't recall what it was.

16:20 <Cepheid> Dangit, I need to keep a notebook around at all times so I can write down todo stuff.

16:20 <Cepheid> Oh, right.  Fix the texture class.

16:22 <Schism> LibrarianofHope, I don't have an Amazon subscription.

16:22 <LibrarianofHope> pirate it yar

16:22 <Schism> Tempting, but I'll hold off for the moment.

16:25 <Cepheid> Not that I'm complaining, but why are the filter flags different in OpenTK..?

16:26 <Cepheid> Oh, it's not.

16:28 <Cepheid> Still doesn't explain why the devs made two separate enumerations that are identical in nature for the most part, though.

16:28 * Cepheid pokes OpenGL wiki to see what's going on.

16:29 <Cepheid> The only difference I see between Minification and Magnification filters is that mag filters only allow GL_NEAREST and GL_LINEAR, while minification allows nearest, linear, and a few others.

16:29 <Cepheid> ... Doesn't explain why the OpenTK devs implemented two enumerations that are identical though, since the mag filter only has 2 choices.

17:05 <Cepheid> Hum, tomorrow's job is at the lowes local to me.

17:06 <Cepheid> I can literally walk over. o3o

17:18 <Schism> That's helpful at least.  o3o;  Saves you from needing to bother with OCTranspo, after all.

17:19 <Cepheid> I don't normally deal with them with this job.

17:19 <Cepheid> There's two basic means of getting around, for me.

17:19 <Cepheid> Since all jobs usually start in the morning, I either get a direct ride to the store, if it's local or along the way to my dad's workplace..

17:20 <Cepheid> Or I get a ride to St. Laurent Mall, where there's a pickup point for people who work for WIS, to drop them off to store locations.

17:20 <Schism> Oh, nice.  That's a good way to go about it.

17:21 <Cepheid> All of my jobs for the next two weeks though are local.

17:21 <LibrarianofHope> wut does the job entail?

17:23 <Cepheid> I take a scanning device, scan a tag, then get down on my hands and knees, on the left-hand side of a shelving section, and pick up the first product on the first shelf, and scan it's UPC.  I count the product, input the count.  Repeat for next product until end of shelf.  Then move up to the next shelf, starting at the left-hand side.  Repeat until shelving unit is done.  Write down number of items on each shelf, number of

17:23 <Cepheid> units on each shelf, and total cost of each shelf.

17:23 <Cepheid> And then repeat in another shelf section.

17:23 <Cepheid> That's literally it.

17:24 <LibrarianofHope> stock checking?

17:24 <Cepheid> There's rare occasions where we do AQ1, auto-quantity one.  Mostly clothing stores.  Where instead of counting the number of units for each item, we scan each and every item.

17:24 <Schism> Inventory, yeah.

17:24 <Cepheid> Stock counting.

17:24 <LibrarianofHope> sounds dull

17:24 <Cepheid> Basically, the stores want to know how much they have of each product and value.

17:24 <Cepheid> On good gods is it ever, it's monotonous.

17:24 <Cepheid> But monotony suits me.

17:24 <Schism> Do the job and let your thoughts run free, like lambs in a field.  o3o

17:25 <Cepheid> Pays good, though.  Minimum $14/hr 'cause minimum wage.  And if I regularly do a good job sufficiently, I'll get a pay raise.

17:25 <Cepheid> Actually because of my meds, my thoughts don't wander anymore.

17:25 <Cepheid> So I can focus on the job and get it done ASAP.

17:25 <Cepheid> Right now the biggest hurdle is physical.

17:25 <Schism> Huh.  And yeah...

17:25 <Cepheid> I'm 220lbs(100kg for non-North Americans)

17:26 <Cepheid> Kneeling down on my knees is quite hard on my knees.

17:26 <Cepheid> I'm not like these short, small women we hire who can practically sit on their legs.

17:26 <Cepheid> I can't do it.  I could probably do it if I practice squats and such a long while, and did edurance runs of standing on the tips of my toes while kneeling.

17:27 <Cepheid> In fact, that might not be a bad idea.

17:27 <Cepheid> Make me a short little desk, put my laptop on it, and intentionally try to stand on my toes while kneeling to get used to it

17:27 <Cepheid> Anything I can do to make my job easier for me to do.  Also grabbing some kneepads.

17:28 <Cepheid> Small desk like that, nothing a bit of melamine/particle board, and some good screws can't solve.

17:28 <Cepheid> I'll need to measure my knee height though when kneeling like that.

17:30 * Cepheid goes to do that right now, in fact.

17:32 <Cepheid> 46cm of clearance would suffice.

17:34 <LibrarianofHope> i still need to finish this draft, read a description technique book or two and begin publishing processess

17:35 <LibrarianofHope> while avoiding burnout

17:36 * Cepheid looks up a list of exercises for the knees, to boot.

17:36 <Cepheid> Basically, while I can walk for long periods of times, it seems my knees are not up for lots of bending.

17:36 <Cepheid> So, exercises!

17:39 *** Joins: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-pdj.e7q.56.172.IP)

17:41 <Cepheid> Oof.

17:42 <Cepheid> They look easy, but they hurt after a few reps.

17:42 <Cepheid> Gonna do 10 reps each, wait five minutes relaxing, then do a different exercise, 10 reps.

17:43 <Schism> Remember, those exercises are meant to actually damage your muscles so that they can heal in a stronger way.

17:43 <Schism> (So that they won't get damaged that way again.  I think.)

18:04 <Cepheid> More or les.s

18:04 <Cepheid> So don't ignore the pain, if It's getting too painful, stop.

18:05 <Schism> Hm.  SCP-#### is a means of death.  Autopsies show that those afflicted with SCP-#### die in the same way as Patient Zero.  Anyone who learns of how Patient Zero died, dies in the same way.

18:07 <Cepheid> Heh.

18:08 <Schism> The author describes it as a 'contagious murder'.

18:08 <Schism> Which is just about as SCP-ish as you can possibly get.

18:23 <Cepheid> Nothing like finding your matrix mathematics has been backwards all this time.

18:24 <Schism> Did you run into SCP-033?  

18:27 <Cepheid> No.

18:27 *** Quits: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-pdj.e7q.56.172.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

18:28 <Schism> I have to ask the second obvious question: Were your matrices literally backwards?

18:28 <Cepheid> In any case, the design of the code makes it easy to fix.

18:28 <Cepheid> Not literally, just the order of multiplication.

18:28 <Schism> Aha.

18:29 <Schism> Pity; that'd have been hilarious.

18:29 <Cepheid> Where A and B are matrices, AB != BA.

18:32 <Schism> Hm.  A recent forum thread has put my thoughts towards the vein of encapsulation and ad-delivered malware.  Considering the state of the Internet, how hard would it be to wrap a browser in its own VM?

18:33 <Cepheid> Relativel easy these days, I would think.

18:33 <Cepheid> What with all the flatpack stuff and sandboxing applications out there.

18:33 * Schism nods. "And the second question is, WHY DOESN'T THAT HAPPEN?!"

18:35 <Schism> Sorry, you'd just... think that maybe a minimal focus on security would be a priority, but here's Google saying that uBlock Origin is malicious, because it doesn't carve out an exception for adsense.

18:37 <Schism> Of course, it'd take the hackers about five minutes to poke sixty thousand holes through the VM anyway, but even so, it's worth a shot.

18:42 <Cepheid> Amazingly, VMs are getting harder and harder to break out of.

18:43 <Cepheid> I'm not sure how difficult it is these days, but it's certainly harder than the earlier days.

18:43 <Cepheid> Interesting.  The average framerate of my game is... 60.62 frames per second.

18:43 <Cepheid> Seems about right, actually.

18:45 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I need to redesign my texture loading code.  Current implementation is slow as molasses.  May need to use unsafe code.

18:50 <Schism> Hmmm.  The developers of browsers would then have to settle on a VM, and collaborate with Apple and Microsoft to make sure it doesn't get broken by future patches.

18:58 * Schism facepalms. "We have, collectively, managed to solve problems by coming up with two different ones."

19:01 * Cepheid puts on Rabi-Ribi - Full On Combat.

19:01 <Cepheid> My complacency to this problem is amazing.

19:03 <Schism> Cepheid: I'm now imagining an SMBC comic where the aliens have designed humans for the express purpose of forcing them to come up with problems to which a solution must be found.

19:04 <Cepheid> Arguably, existence is a problem to which a solution must be found.  The problem being "the how" and the solution being "this is how"

19:05 <Schism> I personally prefer "Nope, there's no reason, we're just around, let's have fun."

19:05 * Ali flops over Cepheid and Schism~

19:06 <Cepheid> That is a solution.

19:06 <Schism> It's totally nihilistic, and also good times.  o3o;

19:06 <Schism> The universe is a cold, unfeeling, uncaring, desolate place.  Let's go exploring!

19:07 <Cepheid> I do not fully understand nihilism.  The phrase seems to invoke the image and idea of destruction, particularly self-destruction.  But it seems that the term is used in a different context.

19:08 <Schism> Philosophically, the idea is that there is a torch to light up the darkness, and it is us.  And nobody else.

19:09 <Schism> Universe doesn't care.  The universe will go on when we're all dead.

19:11 <Schism> A lot of nihilists take that to mean, "Meh, nothing matters."  But screw that.  WE matter, and for that brief moment in eternity, we might as well send up a signal flare saying, WE ARE HERE.

19:13 <Schism> And then figure out the next step.  o3o

19:14 <Schism> After all... there's always a next step, as long as you're alive.

19:15 <Cepheid> I'm not entirely sure where I stand regarding the universe, myself.  In terms of labels, that is.

19:15 <Cepheid> I knwo where I stand in terms of views and thoughts, but I don't know what the collective term would be for them.

19:15 <Schism> Ego.

19:15 <Schism> The great big 'I Am."

19:17 * Cepheid shrugs. Doesn't know, doesn't care, doesn't want a label anyways.

19:17 <Schism> Eh, I was just guessing anyway.

19:18 <LibrarianofHope> thtas my philosophical backgroundowo

19:18 <LibrarianofHope> dont mind the why, mind the flying mangoes

19:18 * LibrarianofHope dodges a mangoe that hits schism

19:18 <Schism> Absurdism has its place.  o3o;

19:19 <LibrarianofHope> i like anti nihilism

19:19 <LibrarianofHope> and hope

19:19 <Schism> Sometimes, you see something you can't explain /right now./

19:21 <Schism> "Live through today.  And then tomorrow.  And after tomorrow... I don't know.  I genuinely don't know.  And THAT makes me want to live another day!"

19:22 <LibrarianofHope> i work more on the demanding purpose angle

19:31 <Schism> LibrarianofHope, I'm still quite convinced that you should play URU Live.

22:22 <Finwe> It's customary to wear a Panama hat in the summer, is it not?

22:22 <Heartbreak> It better be a top hat! Only the most vile of creatures wear the dreaded.... -Fe-dor-ra!-

22:22 <LibrarianofHope> i have mexico hats aka huge sombrero

22:23 <LibrarianofHope> i dont agree completly, but i wouldnt wear a fedora myself

22:23 <LibrarianofHope> my head is big anyway, i dont wear much on the head

22:24 <LibrarianofHope> i have heard so many fedora neckbeard stories.

22:24 <LibrarianofHope> panama hat looks good

22:25 <Finwe> Well, I don't own a fedora, meaning that the danger of seeing me wearing one is practically nonexistent.

22:30 <Finwe> I have a trilby hat, a top hat, a pith helmet, a rain hat, a deerstalker hat, a fez, a student cap, a fur cap and some woollen bobble caps.

23:24 <LibrarianofHope> as a mexican im not that sure of the logic of magic aztec jesus a waifu

23:24 <LibrarianofHope> its not a misnomer, its a widely consider comparision in mithological terms

23:25 <LibrarianofHope> as a bit of trivia, the part where lucoa doesnt want alcohol is because the aztec god of darkness tricked quetzalcoatl after drinking something like wine

23:27 <Schism> Yup!  Though in Dragon Maid, she drank it happily and just, er... wound up making some bad decisions.

23:29 <LibrarianofHope> and didnt fafnir died in the nibelung stories?

23:29 <LibrarianofHope> might be mixing stuff

23:30 <Schism> It's okay, the manga mixes everything up anyway.

23:31 <LibrarianofHope> but im i right on the fafnir origin?

23:31 <LibrarianofHope> kana is queen of uganda, elma is a sea serpent i guess

23:32 <Schism> Well, yes, Fafnir was killed by Sigurd in the old mythology.

23:34 <Schism> His part as the apple of discord, there, is echoed in the way he tries at first to tell Kobayashi to give up her prized maid.

23:36 <LibrarianofHope> i got some very good warhammer stuff on the cheap just by asking and easy negotiating

23:36 <LibrarianofHope> surprinsing what asking around can result
