01:59 * DashedRainbows trots around

02:07 <PinkieShy> I find it amazing how bluelight can reveal alot

02:08 <PinkieShy> Shined it in my mouth at a few teeth and i can see the white colour fillings they put in..

02:08 <PinkieShy> Major colour difference from the tooth in bluelight.

02:16 <Cepheid> All done.  Just waiting on ride back.

02:19 * Ali hugs the Cepheid

02:19 <Ali> Well I'm back in Sylverant again

02:20 <Ali> Not sure how close to the end of the game I am, I have to be close

02:20 <Ali> I'm getting near Lvl 50 and I don't remember you being able to do much of the game once you hit the final boss area.

02:20 <Ali> My grade sucks quite a bit, not even 300 I don't think

02:21 <Ali> I doubt 2x XP will effect NG+ enough though, and 10x XP was 3000

02:22 * DashedRainbows barks

02:23 * PinkieShy headpats DashedRainbows

02:23 <PinkieShy> Trying to make my first custom VRChat avatar :P

02:32 * PinkieShy drops into a giant pink, blue, red and fluffy puddle in front of DashedRainbows

03:12 <Schism> Well, THAT was a pain in the tail.

03:13 * Cepheid loads up AC: Odyssey. Immediately gets attacked by a pirate ship. "..." He proceeds to destroy it with arrows, spears, and finally, by ramming it at full speed.

03:13 <Schism> FEZ has a monochrome sewer level.  This is not a concern.  I can deal with a sewer level, even if I do hate water-level puzzles.

03:13 <Schism> This sewer level leads to a lava section.

03:25 <Cepheid> I guess I should stop being a *YAY* and advance the story a bit.

03:35 <Cepheid> Okay, time to get back to murdering folks to advance the story.

03:36 <Cepheid> The worst part is, this game's set in wartime, so basically, rampaging, murdering and pillaging are ALL IN CHARACTER.

03:47 <Schism> Whew.  Lessee.  Another door leads out from the Windmill area, evidently.  Bleh.

03:50 <Schism> Oh.  Well, that blended in ridiculously well.

03:50 <PinkieShy> ...

03:50 <PinkieShy> I just turned into a fruit..

03:50 <PinkieShy> a fruit that is cosplaying as a dragon..

04:02 <Schism> Hmm, 27/32 regular cubes.

05:41 <Schism> Well, that was fun.  I did cheat in one section of FEZ, because I'm not going to wait however long for the clock to strike.

05:41 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares

05:42 * Filly_Nightmares gnaws on Schism

05:43 * Schism attempts to appease Filly_Nightmares' hunger wif some sweet cinnamon rolls!

05:45 <Koopz> i'll make sure to pick up the Tiny Tortoise from the market...

05:46 <Schism> Or, because it's so easy to catch, you could just do that.

05:46 <Koopz> my FSH may be 80 but i surely don't have enough patience and the price makes it look like i'll need some

05:47 <Koopz> easy catch? mogboard reports prices of around 40k

05:47 <Koopz> doesn't sound like i'll catch one on the first try, otherwise i might have found a new source of income

05:47 <Schism> That sounds about right.  To the best of my recollection it's not a big fish; a powerful hookset and large tug, yes, but not super-huge.

05:48 <Schism> Yeah, yumizuno and a heavy tug, looks like.  You could just use Patience 2 and ignore any light tugs, you might catch one in short order.

05:57 * Filly_Nightmares nomfs Schism and rolls!

06:28 * ConfusionRift walks in from the bathroom. "...and that's why I hate spicy stuff."

06:30 <Schism> Take note, folks, Dairy Queen does not in fact serve human meat.

06:32 <ConfusionRift> Eeerm... huh?

06:33 <Schism> Heh, first off, my condolences, Rift.  It sucks when spicy food bites back.  And second, a raid on a Dairy Queen earlier this week sparked a meme claiming that it was about human meat being served in their burgers.  Nothing of the sort, of course.

06:34 <ConfusionRift> Duh. I dunno, but lately it's been like this. I guess people are just bored and believe just about anything.

06:35 * ConfusionRift wonders if the Area 51 raid did happen, and someone just pulled a mass neurolyzer that made them forget all about it.

06:37 <ConfusionRift> Huh? Oh, be right back.

06:37 * ConfusionRift joined the channel.

06:37 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.

06:40 <ConfusionRift> I don't like that I'm hearing that armor ding from Terraria as I'm making a new map. Maybe it's breaking.

06:40 * ConfusionRift is not surprised. He's running mods and a large map.

06:40 * Schism fears he needs to take a nap. So wavies, and curls up for now.

06:41 <ConfusionRift> Okayday. Laters, and have a good one.

06:41 <Schism> You too. Oh, and if you're looking for a puzzle platformer, FEZ is on free on the Epic Store.  If you're willing at all to install that software, that is.

06:42 <Schism> (Next week, the free game will be Celeste.)

06:42 <ConfusionRift> Already got FEZ, and Celeste... I fear Celeste.

06:43 <Schism> As well you probably should.

13:56 * Finwe noms on LibrarianofHope.

13:59 * LunaticHell boops Finwe

14:13 <LibrarianofHope> ohh a finwe

14:13 <LibrarianofHope> ohh a lunatic

14:13 <LibrarianofHope> oohh a luna

14:13 * LibrarianofHope glopms the crowd

14:15 <LunaticHell> hello

14:15 <LunaticHell> I am a Lunatic

14:16 <LibrarianofHope> i am a librarian

14:17 <LunaticHell> We will be good friends, then.

14:17 <LibrarianofHope> yay

14:17 <LunaticHell> As offering, have a nice fun fact about Celestia.

14:17 * LibrarianofHope takes notes

14:18 <LunaticHell> Considering her rather direct involvements in historic conflicts, she is...or rather used to be quite the literal "warrior princess"

14:18 <LibrarianofHope> warrior mage princess

14:18 <LibrarianofHope> she uses lazers

14:18 <LibrarianofHope> immma fire ma lazer

14:18 <LunaticHell> I can actually imagine her reasoning "If I fight the wars for my subject, they won't get hurt."

14:19 <LibrarianofHope> noble, but heck impractical

14:19 <LibrarianofHope> she gets away by virtue of being a goddessess by comparision to everythinbg else

14:19 <LunaticHell> Indeed. But this kind of silly thinking, I would argue, fits perfectly with her.

14:20 <LunaticHell> We see her fight in wars in the comics.

14:20 <LibrarianofHope> in my novel world the librarian of hope character doesnt actually send armies, he has hunters an a single very effective assasin

14:21 <LunaticHell> Special forces, in military terms. ;)

14:21 <LibrarianofHope> he fights sabotage wars killing the destructive parts of goverments

14:21 <LibrarianofHope> sorta

14:21 <LibrarianofHope> ever seen d gray man?

14:21 <LunaticHell> Rings a bell, yes.

14:22 <LunaticHell> I do want to mention another thing, specifically about military ranks.

14:22 <LibrarianofHope> their exorcits are like my hunters guiild, my guild has specialist hunting monsters

14:22 <LunaticHell> Because you can technically go higher than "General"

14:23 <LibrarianofHope> besides the president being commander in chief thing?

14:23 <LunaticHell> That is technically not a military rank.

14:23 <LibrarianofHope> yeah

14:23 <LibrarianofHope> so whats higher?

14:24 <LunaticHell> See, 4 stars is the classic General, but during wartimes there used to be a 5 star one, the so called "General of the Army"

14:24 <LunaticHell> He was the definitive boss of one branch of military

14:24 <LunaticHell> (As in: Army, Navy, Air Force)

14:25 <LibrarianofHope> aslso in the japanese theather of war, mac arthur was supreme commander no?

14:26 <LunaticHell> Well yes, he was the highest ranking officer in that location.

14:26 <LunaticHell> But here is the deal: there used to be a six star general.

14:26 <LibrarianofHope> i think i remember, but go on

14:26 <LunaticHell> Example: George Washington.

14:26 <LunaticHell> He was called "General of the Armies"

14:26 <LunaticHell> Basically commander in chief, only as military rank.

14:27 <LibrarianofHope> thats what celestia is a great example of, weirdly enough

14:27 <LibrarianofHope> she is a symbol

14:27 <LunaticHell> My thoughts exactly.

14:27 <LunaticHell> I do an awful lot of daydreaming. ^^'

14:27 <LibrarianofHope> as an individual she is nice and caring, but to the population she is their guardian and saviour

14:28 <LibrarianofHope> me too, im goign to make a carrer of it as a novelist

14:28 <LunaticHell> In one word "mother"

14:28 <LunaticHell> Also: nice.

14:28 <LibrarianofHope> thtas what im going for with the Librarian Of Hope Character

14:28 <LibrarianofHope> as a man he is nice, tired but with a vision

14:29 <LunaticHell> Do I ever know about being tired.

14:29 <LibrarianofHope> he made a persona of a perfect leader to give those under his care the ffeling of beinf sahe and that hope is possible

14:29 <LunaticHell> Important bit here, you know how tired and sleepy are two different things?

14:29 <LibrarianofHope> sleepy is cute, tires is im going to ouch you if you wake me up

14:30 <LunaticHell> Well...not exactly.

14:30 <LunaticHell> Let me explain, sleepy is when you want to sleep.

14:30 <LunaticHell> Tired is, when you are sick and tired of something.

14:30 <LibrarianofHope> i also made this name becuase no matter how scared no one will have a frearfull reaction to Library of Hope or ibrarian of hope

14:31 <LibrarianofHope> daydreaming is serious biznezz

14:32 <LunaticHell> It is.

14:32 <LunaticHell> Imagining a "what if" can get you ideas you would not usually think of.

14:32 <LunaticHell> By just following where the *ahem* rabbit hole leads.

14:33 <LibrarianofHope> i follwed the rabbit hole, took it over and made condos

14:33 <LunaticHell> Reminds me of ...actually not a few manga about characters who have to manage a dungeon.

14:33 <LunaticHell> With interesting variations.

14:33 <LibrarianofHope> i wish i could share what i feel when i create my worlds

14:34 <LibrarianofHope> the beauty i see in my minds eye

14:34 <LunaticHell> Well, a bit like with me and some dreams I had.

14:35 <LibrarianofHope> i have the week of from writing, im going to submit to black library, i have the submission ready, just needs polishing and trimming

14:36 <LibrarianofHope> need to reset

14:39 <LunaticHell> black library? Wait, are you talking the sub division of Games Workshop which is devoted to publishing novels and audiobooks set in the Warhammer Fantasy Battle and Warhammer 40,000 fictional universes?

14:42 <LunaticHell> Do you mean that black library, LibrarianofHope?

14:52 <LibrarianofHope> announced it last week

14:52 <LunaticHell> Well damn, I'm more surprised at not being wrong.

14:53 <LibrarianofHope> i recycled some character skeletons, made a cool concept and added tau to the mix becuase they look cool

14:53 <LunaticHell> They do, bit weak in close quaters, though.

14:54 <LibrarianofHope> if you get there

14:54 <LibrarianofHope> and they have hungry bird bois to help

14:54 <LunaticHell> I actually want to show you one of the coolest images in pony wh40k I know.

14:54 <LibrarianofHope> its sfw?

14:56 <LunaticHell> Indeed.

14:56 <LibrarianofHope> friendship is magic, and magic is heresy owo

14:57 <LunaticHell> Also there is one of Twilight being an ultramare, because...ya know, books.

14:57 <LibrarianofHope> what was the image command again?

14:57 <LibrarianofHope> ! something

14:57 <LunaticHell> I would rather say, friendship is psyker and the emperor's light is fuel by them

14:58 <LunaticHell> And I can't remember the command, either.

14:59 <LibrarianofHope> if i do get my idea greenlit it would be incredibly usefull for my own novel

14:59 <LibrarianofHope> with black library in my belt heck good

14:59 <LibrarianofHope> and i would look into the possibilty of being paid some rolayties in miniatures

15:00 <LunaticHell> I wish you the best with that.

15:01 <LibrarianofHope> im not using my best material, so its not a risk

15:02 <LunaticHell> Sound strategy, even though sometimes it would be better to take the risk.

15:03 <LunaticHell> Just a reminder. ;)

15:03 <LibrarianofHope> i couldnt even if i wanted too

15:03 <LibrarianofHope> my world doesnt fit in theirs

15:03 <LunaticHell> Makes for an easy decission, then.

15:03 <LibrarianofHope> yep

15:04 <LibrarianofHope> im consdering sending sunset shimmer to go bother the guys at nottingham to hire me

15:05 <LibrarianofHope> becuase yay

15:05 <LunaticHell> heh well Sunset is a good argument

15:05 <LunaticHell> Being both blonde and a redhead is a rare trait.

15:05 <LunaticHell> :P

15:06 <LibrarianofHope> so, how have you been?

15:06 <LunaticHell> To be honest, it could have been better.

15:07 <LibrarianofHope> no job yet?

15:07 <LunaticHell> Was a training guard, can't because my joints are kaputt, tried to retrain as programmer and failed that. Story of my life.

15:07 <LunaticHell> trained guard*

15:08 <LibrarianofHope> keep at it

15:08 <LunaticHell> I also did write to fanfictions...well two and a half.

15:08 <LibrarianofHope> you do seem to have a writers mind

15:09 *** Joins: Lumi (IceChat9@Pony-1envs7.nj.comcast.net)

15:09 <LunaticHell> Well, I really love language.

15:09 <LibrarianofHope> its not an easy path, but i dont regret having taking it

15:09 <LibrarianofHope> i can teach you the basics, its easy

15:09 <LibrarianofHope> most of it is practice

15:09 <LunaticHell> I actually am on the discord server of fimfiction, joined for that reason. :P

15:10 <LunaticHell> I did learn a bunch there.

15:12 <LunaticHell> My main story (very work in progress) is supposed to be a collection of short stories.

15:12 <LunaticHell> The "stories of questionable relevance"

15:13 <LibrarianofHope> go to pm, we hogging the room, i wana hear in detail

15:13 *** Quits: ADragonHoarding (Mibbit@Pony-krk.qod.41.69.IP) (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)

15:41 <Schism> Hmmm.  We now interrupt our regular Girl Genius story for another thrilling installment of Ivo Sharktooth, PRIVATE JAGER.

15:47 *** Joins: Ali (Ali@Pony-rkb070.4nua.5fca.1702.2600.IP)

15:47 *** ChanServ sets mode: +qo Ali Ali

15:47 * Ali flops into Schism

15:47 * Schism rolls over and provides Ali with a bowl of cranberry-vanilla cream of wheat.

15:47 * Ali noms on Schism instead

15:48 * Schism is still not food.

15:48 <Ali> Still nommable though~

15:50 * Schism supposes he's nommable in the same way that Ali ish cute.

15:51 * Ali doesn't think it works that way!

15:51 <Ali> Hmmm, my green circuit train is illproviding for my factory

15:52 <Ali> Though it doesn't help its only on a 3 insterter thing

16:08 * Ali flops over Schism and whines at how long the Kovarex tech is

16:09 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Awesome Pony Anatomy Tutorial by DimFann! [ http://tinyurl.com/y5rnc7bg ]

16:10 <Schism> That's normal!

16:11 <Ali> I know, it IS 1500 bottles

16:11 <Ali> Things are holding up for now, still need to eventually work on a rocket

16:12 <Ali> You know what's funny Schism?  Is that I'm still using the starting ore patches for red/green bottles >.>

16:13 <Ali> But looks like that copper mine will be dying out soonish though

16:13 <Schism> Not that strange!  Even if there's only a little left, that's enough to keep those reds and greens going.  <.<

16:14 * LibrarianofHope glomps ali for the glopm quota

16:14 * Ali squeaks and splats under LibrarianofHope

16:15 <Ali> Also Schism, I found a spot with Copper/Iron/Oil/Coal somewhat close to each other

16:15 <Schism> Ooh.  Whatcha gonna use it for?

16:16 <Ali> I can maybe set that up to be a dual Advanced Circuit/Plastic station

16:16 <Schism> Heck, could probably do something for blues there.

16:16 <Ali> Hmmm

16:17 <Ali> You're probably right

16:27 <Cepheid> Looks like the Factorio devs want to make a bunch of controversial changes, heh.

16:27 <Ali> The thing is that plant would be slow as all heck if i can't get the ratio right, since blues need a crap ton of greens

16:27 <Ali> Like how blueprints are evil

16:28 <Schism> Hmmm.

16:29 <Schism> Makes sense that the devs want to disincentivize players from going, "Hey, gimme a blueprint for this!"

16:29 * Ali hides her nuke plant blueprint, she'd be lost without that thing

16:30 <Cepheid> Honestly, nuclear power plants need a major re-work.

16:30 <Cepheid> They're overpowered still.

16:30 <Ali> No kidding :P

16:30 <Ali> They take up the least ammount of space, don't stink, and don't shut off half of the time

16:30 <Schism> "Boilers shouldn't have a water output"?  Yes they should, how else are we supposed to chain them so neatly?

16:31 <Ali> The main irk of Nuke is the management of the fuel until Kovarex

16:32 <Schism> But these folks are also just throwing out their ideas on where they want to see the game go, and I bet most of them disagree with one another on everything.

16:32 <Ali> Wouldn't be surprised so far into the experimental build

16:32 <LunaticHell> hey folks

16:32 <Ali> I mean its what?  .17.66 now?

16:33 <Cepheid> Hum.  Interesting.  I can get AC: Odyssey to run at 30 FPS pretty well at 4k, with adaptive quality running, which means I can beat a PS4 pro out no problem.

16:33 <Cepheid> That said, there's an oddity.

16:33 <Ali> ME!

16:33 * Cepheid sighs.

16:33 * Ali flops over Cepheid, got a Perfect Luna fight

16:33 <LunaticHell> 30 FPS? I didn't know AC was a movie. :P

16:33 <Cepheid> Is there a reason you're so negative towards yourself? :P

16:34 <Cepheid> LunaticHell:  That's 24.something and you know that.

16:34 <Ali> Well when you've been called the reason for everything to go wrong, yes, yes there is

16:34 <Cepheid> You need to talk to someone.

16:34 <Cepheid> And by that I mean a specialist.

16:34 <LunaticHell> Yeah, I do. I just thought a sassy line would be a good way to join the talk. ;)

16:34 <Cepheid> You've got rantings that you need to do to a specialist.

16:34 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/ZJ1WXw1.jpg So, anyone see the oddity here?

16:34 * Schism is a space oddity?

16:35 <LunaticHell> Ground control to Major Schism

16:35 <Schism> Hmm, CPUs 3 and 5?

16:35 <Cepheid> Basically, there's a peak every N seconds, unexplained.

16:35 <Ali> Anyway...

16:35 <Schism> Oh, that.

16:35 <Cepheid> Nah.

16:35 <Cepheid> There's a consistent, repeating peak.

16:35 <Cepheid> Just a sudden spike, no explanation.

16:35 <LunaticHell> So obviously no coincidence

16:35 <Ali> So my ToS is now starting to wrap up?  I'm not sure how far into the game I am now

16:36 <Schism> Cepheid: Polling actors?

16:36 * Cepheid reduces the resolution to see if it remains.

16:36 <Ali> And I think my grade is not even more than 350

16:36 <Cepheid> Ali, do me a favour.

16:36 * Schism forgets what Ali's doing with that.

16:36 * Ali noms on that u :P

16:36 * Schism booups Ali.

16:36 <LunaticHell> ^^

16:36 <Cepheid> Make two saves, and then package them up to me.  The only thing that needs to change between the two saves is the grade.

16:36 <Ali> With Tales?  Just playing it again to past the time

16:36 *** Joins: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-aluh3n.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)

16:36 <Cepheid> So in other words, do a single battle between both saves, package them up, and send them off my way.

16:36 <LunaticHell> Tales of what?

16:37 <Ali> Tales of Symphonia

16:37 <LunaticHell> Also I just finished break the game.

16:37 <Cepheid> Tales of Symphonia.

16:37 <LunaticHell> Ah, still need to try out that one.

16:37 <Ali> I just don't remember the grade being so hard to get

16:37 <LunaticHell> I am afraid of "high" prices, ok?

16:37 <Cepheid> Schism:  Truth told, if I had to guess, I'd say it's probably data transfers.

16:37 <Cepheid> Both the CPU and GPU spike at the exact same times.  It's probably memory clearing or transfer.

16:38 <Ali> To be honest, I prefer the Gamecube version

16:39 <Ali> Though I think a janked Xbone controller is biasing me a bit

16:39 <Cepheid> Especially since at lower resolutions, which take up less graphical memory, don't induce the effect. Hmm.

16:39 <Ali> Like running at ANY angle is wonky, slow, and sometimes nonworking

16:39 <Cepheid> If yer using a keyboard over a gamepad, I can see that yeah.

16:39 <LunaticHell> It sounds like a work around to me, if you say it like that.

16:39 <Cepheid> As it is, the PC port of the game is... wonky.

16:40 <Ali> I am using a gamepad Cepheid T.T

16:40 <Cepheid> Mmm.

16:40 <LunaticHell> Basically a "if the resolution is higher than x, we need to do y (which causes the spikes)"

16:40 <Ali> Like in the area of the mine where you have to smash the spinning stone thing

16:40 <Ali> I couldn't outrun the rock and kept splatting

16:41 <Ali> Or the Temple of Lightning

16:41 <Ali> Ugh, do not really want to do that again

16:41 <LunaticHell> Intermission: that instant cocktail ain't half bad, pina colada, too.

16:41 <Ali> Dark place, narrow corridors where you can fall off, bad controller

16:41 <LunaticHell> Like that bonus dungeon in FFXV?

16:42 <LunaticHell> I tried it, it broke me

16:42 <Ali> Lets not talk about the Gold Dragon Nerf

16:42 <LunaticHell> I started it at 8PM, was not done at 6AM

16:42 * Schism considers fighting Yiazmat again.

16:43 <Ali> LunaticHell, in Symphonia, there's a Golden Dragon that in the GC version, dropped like 100k gald

16:43 <Ali> It was either that or 10k, can't remember

16:43 <Ali> ANYWAY

16:43 <LunaticHell> Ohkay

16:43 <Ali> When they ported it to the PS2/PC, they deicided to nerf this all the way down to 1k

16:44 * Schism also randomly provides Ali with a grape gummy.

16:45 <Schism> Blech.

16:45 * Ali doesn't want a purple Pinkie pet :P

16:45 <Schism> No, no, the edible kind of gummy.

16:45 <Ali> 'cuse you :P

16:45 <Schism> Also, the point of their being a gold slime is for it to drop a sensible amount of gald!  Or gil.  Or guilders.  Or gall.

16:45 <Ali> Welp, so much for rushing out power armor MK2

16:45 <Ali> Forgot about the 25 2's it needs

16:46 <Ali> Of both blue and green

16:46 <Cepheid> Honestly, I prefer the gold unit "AU"

16:46 <Cepheid> As in some roguelikes.

16:46 <LunaticHell> That name

16:46 <Schism> And then there's 'En', which I still don't get.  Energy?

16:46 <LunaticHell> ...is very latain

16:46 <Cepheid> No.

16:46 <Cepheid> "en" is a special case.

16:46 <LunaticHell> Aurum is not latain?

16:46 <Cepheid> It's actually quite hilarious.

16:46 <Cepheid> You're familiar with the Japanese Yen, right, Schism?

16:46 <Schism> Aurum is indeed Latin.  Though not latinum.

16:46 <Schism> Oh, yes.

16:47 <Ali> Oh come on Luna, why are you twitching your tail like that and not jumping up here.

16:47 <Cepheid> How do you pronounce "Yen"?

16:47 * Schism nods. "En."

16:47 <LunaticHell> o. o

16:47 <Cepheid> Exactly.

16:47 <LunaticHell> Oh wait, different Luna.

16:47 <LunaticHell> Cat=

16:47 <LunaticHell> Cat?

16:47 <Ali> She even cries, but she just won't jump....oh hi Luna

16:47 <Schism> Cat, yes.

16:47 <LunaticHell> Hi Ali. ^^

16:47 <LunaticHell> It has been a while, has it not?

16:47 * Ali boops LunaticHell, she is talking about her cat though :P

16:48 <Ali> It has

16:48 <LunaticHell> It is nice to see you in good health.

16:48 <LunaticHell> A thing I can't claim.

16:48 * Cepheid grabs MSI Afterburner to figure out what's up with that peak. Assume it's memory-related.

16:48 <Ali> What's wrong LunaticHell?

16:50 <LunaticHell> I failed my job training to become programmer, so I took to drink. And took on so weight. But I did quit smoking for good.

16:50 <Schism> That latter is at least a huge benefit.

16:50 <LunaticHell> Yeah, it was very strangely easy to quit.

16:50 <LunaticHell> I decided to, then I did.

16:50 <Ali> I failed the A+

16:50 <Cepheid> Ooooh yeah it's memory related.

16:51 <Cepheid> Game spikes up to 6GiB GPU memory usage.  System RAM usage...  Eheheh.

16:51 <Cepheid> Upwards of 7-8GiB

16:51 <LunaticHell> But at least I now know how to code in C# with some confidence.

16:52 <Ali> I'm sure C# is more useful than A+ is

16:52 <LunaticHell> Well if you are using win, then yes.

16:52 <Cepheid> Actually..

16:52 <Cepheid> That's not 100% true anymore.

16:52 <Cepheid> C# works fine under Linux and other OSes now.

16:53 <LunaticHell> Dude, don't scare me like that.

16:53 <Cepheid> Ever since they made the open-source .NET implementation.

16:53 <Cepheid> .NET Core 3.0 is pretty much expected to be parity to .NET Framework 4.8.  In fact...

16:53 <Cepheid> .NET Framework is going away

16:53 <Ali> Why do I want to read that as C Sharp X.x

16:53 <Cepheid> Because that's how it's meant to be read.

16:54 <Ali> So its not C Pound or C Hashtag :P

16:54 <Cepheid> Nope.

16:54 <Cepheid> C-Sharp

16:54 <Cepheid> Anyways..

16:54 <Cepheid> Yes, LunaticHell, it'll work under Linux, Mac OS X, and presumably other UNIX-likes as well now.

16:54 <Ali> Here I thought it was my old band music brain trying to confuse me

16:55 <LunaticHell> Ohkay, Ali, but that makes a few hashtags sound very bad.

16:55 <LunaticHell> I won't say it.

16:56 <Cepheid> Heh.

16:56 <Cepheid> The only thing that's not yet working under Linux, Mac OS X, and such that people might want, is WinForms and WPF.

16:56 <Cepheid> But even those have been open-sourced.

16:59 <Cepheid> So it's just a matter of time until someone comes up with a generic interface for WinForms and WPF to make use of, that interfaces to native UI APIs, like X11 or whatever it is that Mac OS X uses these days.

16:59 * Cepheid has been working on a native C# implementation of the X11 protocol, slowly but surely.

17:00 <Cepheid> None of this binding *YAY*.  Just uses basic C# and .NET APIs provided to do what it needs to do.

17:00 <Cepheid> So in theory, it should work on any platform, regardless of OS.

17:01 <Cepheid> Interesting.  Looks like that hitch is caused by a Windows OS feature.

17:02 <LunaticHell> Well, the platform has to interact with the application in a meaningful way for us to interface with it.

17:02 <Cepheid> Yes, but in this case, the usual method of making X11 libraries for C# has been, from what I've seen, to use library bindings.

17:03 <Cepheid> Meaning that xlib or libxcb needs to exist on the host machine for those libraries to work.

17:03 <LunaticHell> Yes, I remember binding lots of libraries in my apps.

17:03 <Cepheid> In this case..

17:03 <Cepheid> I'm not using that.

17:03 <Cepheid> I'm even avoiding unsafe code, and managing CLS-compliance.

17:03 <LunaticHell> That's fair enough.

17:04 <Cepheid> When I say "native" I mean "native to C#, as in, it'll use only the functionality provided by C# and .NET, without using P/Invoke."

17:04 <LunaticHell> Another way would be to limit commands to standard libraraies.

17:04 <Cepheid> That's what I'm doing.

17:04 <Cepheid> I'm limiting it to just C# and .NET.

17:04 <Cepheid> .NET more or less provides the one thing I need, which is sockets.

17:04 <Cepheid> That's all I need.

17:05 <Cepheid> Everything else can be implemented using just C# alone.

17:05 <LunaticHell> Neat.

17:05 <Cepheid> And since sockets are a universal feature usually supported by all languages these days, it's a non-issue.

17:06 <LunaticHell> I knock on wood.

17:06 <LunaticHell> Since this sounded like "nothing can go wrong"

17:06 <Cepheid> The biggest issues are CLS-compliance, lack of unions, and a few other things.

17:06 <Cepheid> But so far, I've found work-arounds for all those issues.

17:07 <LunaticHell> More wood knocking?

17:07 <Cepheid> Honestly CLS-compliance was the worst part.

17:08 <Cepheid> There's still a remaining issue with it, but I have a solution for that as well.  I just need to recover my health completely and get back to work.

17:08 <LunaticHell> I only can imagine, since most I know is what my coworker told me.

17:08 <Cepheid> CLS-compliance is basically where you try to use a limited set of features such that it'll work on any .NET compatible language.

17:08 <Cepheid> What this means in practice is mostly no unsigned types.

17:08 <LunaticHell> Well, I may know something to help you recover your health.

17:09 <LunaticHell> If you like comedy.

17:09 <Cepheid> I'm actually doing good now.

17:09 <LunaticHell> Alrighty then, no fun for you, then.

17:09 <Cepheid> Last night was just "I ate something bad" and current breathing issues are pretty atypical of my life.

17:09 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Open Art Event - Draw Your Favorite Pony! - Due Tonight!  [ http://tinyurl.com/y2s3vpby ]

17:09 <Cepheid> My mother wants me to get tested for something special though.

17:09 <LunaticHell> Well better be safe than dead.

17:09 <LunaticHell> err sorry*

17:09 <Cepheid> Heh.

17:10 <Cepheid> My sister has a rare, unexplained allergy.  They aren't able to isolate exactly what she's allergic to, as there doesn't appear to be any specific trigger that makes itself apparent.

17:10 <Cepheid> My mother thinks my allergy-like attack last night might be the same thing.

17:10 <Cepheid> Which would mean I'd need to carry an epipen.

17:10 <LunaticHell> Huh

17:11 <Cepheid> Yeah, it's the weirdest thing.

17:11 <Cepheid> My sister just spontaneously has severe allergic reactions, almost to the point of anaphylaxis.

17:11 <LunaticHell> Sounds bad.

17:11 <Cepheid> She needs to carry an epipen and wear a medic alert bracelet, because it can crop up at any time, for any reason.

17:12 <Cepheid> Anyhow, back to my game, figured out what that peak was.  It's apparently the adaptive quality feature.  At low framerates, it introduces a hell of a hiccup.

17:12 <LunaticHell> Well it sounds to me like she is allergic to a chemical pruduced by her own body.

17:12 <Cepheid> So, turn it off, set game to Very High instead of Ultra, and the game can handle 2160p/30fps no problem.

17:13 <LunaticHell> I heard cases of that, some time ago.

17:13 <LunaticHell> Yeah but those are as rare as they sound.

17:13 <Cepheid> Won't lie, it's possible.

17:13 <Cepheid> Me, I seem to notice the problem primarily when I consume cold dairy products.

17:14 <LunaticHell> "When everything possible has been excluded...", right?

17:14 <Cepheid> There's actually a good way for me to test right now.

17:14 <Cepheid> I feel absolutely fine right now.

17:14 * Cepheid goes to drink a tall glass of malk.

17:15 <LunaticHell> I would ask "ok cold, how does the body react to cold?"

17:16 <LunaticHell> Wait, dairy products, you say?

17:17 <LunaticHell> The answer won't be milk algery, will it?

17:17 <Cepheid> Yeah, milk, cheese, etc.

17:17 <Cepheid> It's possible.  But we'll find out.

17:17 <Cepheid> Basically, the symptoms tend to come on at an average speed.

17:17 * Ali flops out for staff time

17:17 *** Ali is now known as Ali|AFK

17:17 <LunaticHell> Because a milk alergy can also lead to breathing problems.

17:18 <Cepheid> Yeah.

17:18 <Cepheid> That's why I'm investigating it right now.

17:18 <Cepheid> If it's milk, then in about 10-15 minutes, my lungs should start feeling like they're filling up with fluid, and my throat should close up.  I should start coughing a lot, too.

17:18 <LunaticHell> I'm happy we're on the same page, since the ammounts of jaeger and pina colada in my blood makes me question my ration.

17:19 <LunaticHell> You do have something on hand in case you are right?

17:19 <Cepheid> Epipen.

17:20 <Cepheid> Got 'em all over the house.

17:20 <LunaticHell> Alrighty.

17:20 <Cepheid> That said, I won't need it.

17:20 <LibrarianofHope> i might die from mil, let find out!

17:20 <Cepheid> If it's an allergy, it's not bad enough to kill me, as I eat dairy on a regular basis.

17:20 <LunaticHell> Because otherwise it sounds like "let's test if this fire burns my hand, no water needed"

17:20 <Cepheid> The worst that happens is my windpipe closes up a bit, fluid buildup starts, and I just cough a lot.

17:20 <LibrarianofHope> its a very scientific spirit, great scientist did that sort of thing

17:20 <LunaticHell> I know.

17:21 <LunaticHell> It is how they named diabetus.

17:21 <LunaticHell> And then they invented fanta to recreate the taste. Ba dum tish

17:22 * LibrarianofHope flops

17:22 *** Joins: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net)

17:22 <LunaticHell> oh hi PShy

17:22 <PinkieShy> Hey everyone :)

17:23 * PinkieShy dashes to LunaticHell and hugs them

17:23 <LunaticHell> How do you do, today? *hugs*

17:23 <Cepheid> So uh...

17:23 <Cepheid> Guess what?

17:23 <PinkieShy> I'm doing great!! :D

17:23 <LunaticHell> Do tell, Ceph.

17:23 <Cepheid> I'm coughing frequently, and there's a tickling in the back of my throat, fluid buildup.

17:23 <LunaticHell> You might be on to something.

17:24 <LunaticHell> Just make sure to have a pen in hand.

17:24 <Cepheid> It's not getting as bad as last night.

17:24 <LunaticHell> Ohkay

17:24 <Cepheid> It seems to have stopped around "coughing a lot"

17:24 <Cepheid> And a tickle in my throat.

17:26 <Schism> Sounds like a common reaction to drinking a bunch of milk at once, but hmm.

17:26 <PinkieShy> I was about to take a 2 hour nap but.. Decided maybe its best to wait to sleep tonight :P

17:26 <PinkieShy> Fight the sleepiness off the best i can.

17:27 <LunaticHell> Dang

17:27 <LunaticHell> Here is the thing, Ceph. Not all milk alergy is created equally.

17:27 <LunaticHell> Also not all diary products trigger it.

17:27 <Cepheid> Suggestions for that, PinkieShy.  1) Drink some ice water.  Has to be ice water, let it get really cold.  2) Coffee.  3) Go out and take a short bit of exercise, like weight lifting or jogging/walking.

17:27 <Cepheid> Yeha, I notice, LunaticHell.

17:27 <Cepheid> I had cheese earlier, I was fine.

17:28 <LunaticHell> Exactly, cheese is one of those exceptions.

17:28 <Cepheid> The common factor of last night and just now..

17:28 <LunaticHell> Best seen in Japan.

17:28 <Cepheid> Was that the dairy was a fluid.

17:28 <LunaticHell> Most japanese people can eat cheese, but not drink milk.

17:28 <Schism> Lactose allergy, then?

17:28 <LunaticHell> Exactly that.

17:28 <Cepheid> Last night, it was a booster juice that I drank, basically smoothies made with dairy products, fruit and the like.

17:29 <Cepheid> Today, just a glass of milk.

17:29 <Schism> Mmm, a mild lactose allergy then.

17:29 <Cepheid> I am lactose intolerant to a degree, actually.

17:29 <Cepheid> Occasionally, I have periods where I cannot drink milk at all due to digestive troubles.

17:29 <Cepheid> I take Lactaid for it.

17:29 <LunaticHell> Lactose intolerant and milk alergy actually are two things, no?

17:29 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

17:30 <Cepheid> Still, it seems likely the problem is directly that I have some sort of problem with dairy.

17:30 <LunaticHell> So it may very well be the case that your alergy has been "hidden" behind your intolerance?

17:30 <Cepheid> Not enough to be fatal, but enough to cause problems.

17:30 <LunaticHell> An issue is an issue to be solved, right?

17:30 <Cepheid> One good way to test how dangerous it is to me would be to cut out dairy for a few days or a week.

17:31 <Cepheid> See how my breathing is after a while.

17:31 <LunaticHell> Sounds like a good trial.

17:31 <Cepheid> I'll add this to the list of requests for my family doctor.

17:32 <LunaticHell> You could try to subsidize it with almond milk.

17:32 <Cepheid> I had him test me for hyperthyroidism, without much in the way of evidence to support it.

17:32 <Cepheid> I suspect he just does as I ask because I'm a decent patient.

17:32 <LunaticHell> Even though it tastes weird and I still have not found an almond that can be milked.

17:33 <Schism> Weirder yet, how do you make almond /butter/?

17:33 <Cepheid> I don't bother him with longwinded explanations of problems, or argue with him.  I just make it quick and to the point.  "I'm here to request a blood test for X."  "Okay."

17:33 <Schism> There's no dairy in almonds!  Or peanuts!

17:33 <Cepheid> "I'm here to refill this prescription." "Okay."

17:33 <LunaticHell> Yes, that is weird. Almond butter. o. o

17:33 <Cepheid> Which reminds me, I have to call in my Vyvanse.

17:34 <Cepheid> Ah hell, I can't.

17:34 <LunaticHell> Ok this made me think of a bad pun.

17:34 <Cepheid> Probably need another day or two.

17:34 <LunaticHell> Made me throw up in my mouth a little.

17:34 <LunaticHell> So I rather not. o. o

17:35 <LunaticHell> Let's just stop talking about nut.

17:35 * Cepheid takes Vyvanse, which is a narcotic. Unfortunately, this means he can only refill it at set points.

17:37 <LibrarianofHope> as intersting as it is, this is not very enjoyable

17:37 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

17:37 <Cepheid> In any case, I'm fine now.

17:38 <Cepheid> Single glass of milk caused some weirdness, but it's already going away.

17:38 <LibrarianofHope> im trying to talk my favorite miniature dealer into giving me a belisaurius cawl and a tau broadside on a good package deal

17:38 <LibrarianofHope> becuase big rifle looks coool

17:39 <Cepheid> Funny thing about running 30 FPS for AC: Odyssey.  It keeps my CPU cool, which means the fan is quiet.

17:39 <Cepheid> Which reminds me, I need to ask for ~$40 of my cash from my parents.  They borrowed money from me, and owe me about $120.  Gonna spend it on a quieter CPU cooler.

17:39 <LibrarianofHope> i also by mistake kinda cheated my way into 12 audible credits

17:39 <LibrarianofHope> didnt mean too, but it worked

17:39 <Cepheid> How'd you cheat your way into that?

17:40 <LibrarianofHope> i asked to return some old books from a previous account i merged

17:40 <LibrarianofHope> as i bought them from a kindle thingie, they did it anyway, but i think they were too old

17:41 <LibrarianofHope> i figured it out later, i havent called back just to not get the rep i talked too in trouble

17:41 * Cepheid shrugs.

17:42 <Cepheid> I poked Ubisoft the other day to transfer a game from one account to another, and remove the two-factor authentication as I lost the details for it.

17:42 <LibrarianofHope> im either smart or just lucky

17:42 <Cepheid> They did the transfer no prob, also removed the authentication, and on top of that, provided me with free Uplay points for AC: Odyssey.

17:42 <Cepheid> Because I was so polite and patient with them, as they were with me.

17:42 <LunaticHell> Oh yea right, uplay

17:42 <LibrarianofHope> right? so long you are nice things are easier

17:43 <Cepheid> Sometimes, people do good things at cost to themselves or the company, just because you're good to them.

17:43 <LunaticHell> I forgot about it

17:43 <Cepheid> There seems to be two extremes to handling tech support.

17:43 <LunaticHell> Empathy?

17:43 <LunaticHell> That still exists?

17:43 <Cepheid> Being polite and patient, and being loud and angry.

17:43 <Cepheid> Both approaches seem to work, but get different results.

17:43 <LibrarianofHope> you do see my name no? i am empathy boi

17:44 <Cepheid> For someone with a short temper, I find it strange that I take the polite-and-patient route.

17:44 <LunaticHell> Hey, fun thing, I usually turn out to be the resonable person when an argument breaks out and I find it really flipping weird.

17:44 <Cepheid> But that might have something to do with the fact that, while I am not *IN* their field, I have awareness of certain details.

17:44 <LibrarianofHope> if i had no scruples i would be a heck of a politician

17:44 *** Joins: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-2vt.rme.58.172.IP)

17:44 <Cepheid> Like the fact that IT, tech support and the like are probably running off of a script, or are required to do things by the book.

17:45 <Cepheid> So it's not their fault if they are asking questions you've already explained or answered in the ticket.  They have to ask them anyways.

17:45 <Cepheid> It's especially a big thing to be aware of because they're being monitored.

17:45 <Cepheid> "This call is being monitored for quality assurance purposes."  Yeah, right.

17:46 <Cepheid> It's being monitored because your employer is a stickler for perfection and wants to find any excuse they can to reprimand you.

17:47 <LibrarianofHope> i might be just lucky anyway, thinking about it

17:47 <LibrarianofHope> i tend to find connections to usefull things i want by sheer dumb luck

17:48 <LibrarianofHope> that time i actually got with a tv producer here in mexico, thta was just dumb luck

17:48 <Cepheid> So, fun little trick in AC: Odyssey.

17:48 <Cepheid> You can whistle to draw the attention of your enemies to you, to assassinate them.

17:48 <Cepheid> There's two ranges to it though.  A shorter range, which immediately causes them to go over to you.

17:48 <Cepheid> And another range where they're outside immediate attention, but still "react" to the whistling noise.

17:49 <Cepheid> As in, they turn to face the source.

17:49 <Cepheid> But don't approach, and all that.

17:49 <Cepheid> Sounds like it's just a way of saying "You're close, but not close enough."

17:49 <Cepheid> Whistle 3 or 4 more times though, and they'll get annoyed and go to the source.

17:49 <Cepheid> "Will you please STOP WHISTLING!?

17:53 <Cepheid> Huh, enemies I am too weak to assassinate.

17:55 <Cepheid> Bah, one of them discovered a corpse.

17:58 <Schism> No Ghost achievement for you.

17:58 <Cepheid> Ah well.

17:58 <Cepheid> I'll let the fort quiet down, and go murder them later.

18:01 <Cepheid> ...

18:01 <Cepheid> This bandit camp kept a wolf as a guard animal.

18:02 <Cepheid> The wolf turned on them shortly after I arrived, and they had to put it down.

18:09 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto:  Pony Plushie Compilation #344 [ http://tinyurl.com/y6c3xums ]

18:12 <Cepheid> Right, so I think I just burned through my RNG.

18:13 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/kmOxdLn.jpg Schism, I just won the lottery, and I'm pretty sure the RNG wants to kill me.

18:13 <Schism> Hah!

18:14 <Schism> Truly, the armour of legends.

18:14 <Cepheid> Seriously.

18:15 <Cepheid> That's gotta be an impossibly rare case.

18:15 <Schism> Evidently it's a joke item that only rarely appears.

18:15 <Schism> Well, sorta-joke.

18:15 *** Quits: Cyan_Spark (Cyan_Spark@sparks.only.last.so.long) (Quit: sparks only last so long)

18:16 <Cepheid> Yeah.

18:16 <Cepheid> It makes your entire body covered in oil, and you wear basically what amounts to underwear.

18:17 <Cepheid> Which makes me wonder about the actual armor value.

18:17 <Cepheid> Quick way to tell.  Piss off a guard after saving.

18:17 <Schism> Considering it's bumping up your armour by /452/ points...

18:17 <Cepheid> Nope, seems to be the real deal.

18:18 <Cepheid> Though, lemme reload.

18:18 <Cepheid> That said, I'll buy it and shove it into storage either way.

18:18 <Cepheid> Just so I have it.  Otherwise, it breaks the game.

18:19 <Cepheid> It's not actually real.

18:19 <Cepheid> It provides a more modest bonus, it's just the number is inflated.

18:19 <Cepheid> I attacked a guard prior to it, he dealt mmm... 5% of my health in response?

18:19 <Cepheid> Without it, it was closer to about 8%

18:24 <Schism> Hmm, not bad.  And heh.

18:26 <Cepheid> Hum, yeah, I'm gonna splurge and get a be quiet! cooler.  This CPU fan is maddening.

18:26 <Cepheid> It is *LOUD*

18:26 <LunaticHell> I remember the thing!

18:26 <Schism> The thing?  The thing with the guy?

18:27 <LunaticHell> No, the actual good thing.
