00:01 * Schism looks on the right side of the pyramid, where a moon pearl is. "Oh. Good, then." He also hugs Ali, then frowns at Cephy. "What's she done this time?"
00:16 <Schism> Whew. Palace of Darkness had... the mirror, the flippers...
00:19 <PinkieShy> Do you guys think switching Carriers from Verizon to cricket to try another service could be a mistake? :3
00:20 * PinkieShy licks Ali
00:24 * Ali squeaks at PinkieShy
00:25 <Schism> YAY magic powder.
00:27 <PinkieShy> I keep looking up and seeing what Ali said above to Schism and thinking it says "At least you haven't paid king Sombra 200 rupees"
00:27 <Ali> Heh
00:27 * Ali noms a PinkieShy ear
00:35 * Schism wanders into Thieves' Town, opens a chest, gets the yellow mitt. "..."
00:38 * Ali demands Schism's luck
00:39 <Schism> After the last run, I think I deserve a bit of luck, but this seed is being very Monty Haul.
00:40 <Ali> And the migraine wins this round, for now I have no energy so naptime it is.
00:40 *** Ali is now known as Ali|Nap

01:16 <Cepheid> In the future, I am not to consume my vyvanse after 10 AM. No matter how good of a medication it is for me.
01:16 <Cepheid> My doc wasn't kidding about the effects of doing so.
01:18 <Cepheid> Basically, it is a stimulant. Like caffeine. Only stronger.
01:18 <Cepheid> So long story short I have my sedative in me, and I don't feel tired.
01:18 <Cepheid> It has been three hours since i took it.
01:21 <Schism> Sheesh. @_@
01:24 * Schism heads to the spikiest of all caves. At its conclusion is a piece of heart. "Well, that wasn't a complete waste of time."
01:28 * Schism takes a break from the run.
01:29 <Schism> All that's left are the dungeons and Ganon's Tower anyway - everything's go mode.
01:32 <Cepheid> I should toy with the Rabi-Ribi randomizer myself.
01:39 <PinkieShy> ...
01:39 <PinkieShy> Its all suddenly cold..
01:40 <PinkieShy> Maybe my foam slippers will help :D
01:44 <Cepheid> Your house is possessed by inexplicably malicious spirits.
01:45 <PinkieShy> pff.
01:45 <Cepheid> Who ya gonna call? LUUUIGI~!

06:58 * ConfusionRift wills till get it.
06:59 <ConfusionRift> Tirek: Kinda have an idea for the drawing, but may be a bit complex, so I'm probably gonna go with something else.
07:00 * Jackie nuzzles forehead
07:03 <Tirek> This is reasonable.
07:11 <Tirek> I've considered what its going to take to be worth buying.
07:11 <Tirek> And I've taken to heart the idea that mastery takes 10,000 hours.
07:12 <Tirek> So, maybe I ought to put as much time as is reasonable, and maybe even stream, the process of getting good.
07:12 <Tirek> Including hours of boring practice.
07:22 <ConfusionRift> Hey, if it aids your technique, why not? Also, you did mention you wanted to stream a bit more to get used to being on a public. Should help in both.
07:26 <ConfusionRift> Practice is usually pretty boring. :P

08:23 * Ali flops into ConfusionRift and Cepheid
08:23 <Ali> Only 58 items remain, one is the item that is blocking me from beating the game X.x
08:24 <Schism> Whurp.
08:27 <Cepheid> Next week and the weekend included, I'll be busy. Kind of annoyed at myself for how little schoolwork I got done the last few days. Gonna spend time on campus 'til I am caught up.
08:27 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali.
08:27 <Ali> Schism, I'm missing the Requim of Spirit
08:27 <ConfusionRift> Do what'cha gotta doooo.
08:27 <Ali> WIthout it I can't plant a bean seed
08:28 <Ali> Which is required to get the MIRROR SHIELD
08:28 <Ali> Its the last item I need to beat the game
08:30 * Filly_Nightmares berpies at Ali
08:31 * Filly_Nightmares mewls
08:32 <Cepheid> https://i.redd.it/4475sgkjb5m31.jpg
08:40 <Schism> Do I want to clear the Ice Palace to get those last few items, like the gold sword and mirror shield? ...no, no I do not. *beats Ganon*
08:41 * Cepheid wanders off to shower and get ready to head out.
08:41 * Schism pours some tomato soop into Filly_Nightmares!
08:42 <Ali> Bleh
08:42 <Ali> Schism, 10 skulltula's left
08:42 <Ali> 40 chests
08:42 <Schism> Ali: Knock on wood...!
08:42 <Ali> Still no song
08:42 <Ali> Schism, the 100 skull reward isn't part of the rando
08:43 <Schism> As it shouldn't be.
08:43 <Ali> I'm starting to worry the song might be behind the biggest pain
08:43 <Ali> The Biggergon Sword chain
08:43 <Schism> That... is depressingly common.
08:44 <Ali> The other problem is
08:44 <Ali> The best place for me to go now
08:44 <Ali> Is.... The Water Temple..
08:45 * Jackie scratches Ali's back
08:45 * Schism pats. :S
08:50 * ConfusionRift finally caught up with what's going on.
08:51 * Schism puts the Ikaruga into R-Type 3.
08:52 * Schism also once more watches the fight between Jehuty and Gladius.
08:52 <Schism> Gradius*
08:53 <Schism> ... Vic Viper.* Need tea.
08:55 <Schism> ConfusionRift, using Pin Body against Apollo remains hilarious. :S
08:56 * Filly_Nightmares berpies at Schism!
08:58 * ConfusionRift puts Vic Viper, Jehuty, aaaand... hmmm... Ragnarok 2. :P
08:58 <Schism> "Playing Epona's song in front of a cow gives an item. There are 9 cows."
09:00 * Filly_Nightmares rolls onto her back
09:00 <ConfusionRift> Schism: Never really got to that tactic. Last I fought Mr. Grasshead I went just full aggressive. "LEA!" = "You're lucky you're in VR. That would have sent to you to another planet." :P
09:01 <Schism> Playing with the massive damage bonus, too? :S
09:01 * Cepheid gives Schism a square bonsai tree.
09:02 <Schism> A wonderfully regular tree!
09:02 * Schism offers Cepheid a perfectly square cactus in return.
09:04 * Cepheid grows it. Then multiplies it. Then builds a field of thorny death out of the result.
09:05 <Cepheid> Hum. Just need a pair of socks and I'm good to leave. Going in early.
09:07 <Cepheid> Mostly just want to get away from home ASAP. For some reason my mood is tweaky when I am at home right now. Blaming my sister.
09:08 <Schism> Not a bad idea that.
09:08 * Schism wonders if Ali is doing an MQ run of that.
09:08 <Ali> Oh heck no Schism
09:10 <Schism> Aw. But MQ isn't at aaaaaaalll difficult.
09:12 <Cepheid> Basic gist for my gripe with my sister for the record. Her drunken rambling talk from a month back is only now inexplicably getting to me. Mostly I feel like I'm being guilt-tripped into various things because of it. Particularly, taking care of my parents. I feel like my sister has offloaded all of that to me, and that if anything were to happen to them, that it would be seen as my fault.
09:12 <Cepheid> So among other things, I am now having a constant panic attack about the wellbeing of my parents, whether I'm spending enough time with them, etc.
09:12 <Schism> Hmm. That does sound akin to an abusive tactic, to be certain.
09:13 <Cepheid> She basically went on and on about how me and my sister had it good, and how I was directly responsible for my dad not going into the field he wanted to, and how much of a pain in the ass I was to them as a child and so on and so on.
09:14 <Cepheid> This is on top of begging and praying I wasn't an incel.
09:14 * Filly_Nightmares hunger floofy

09:17 <Schism> Well, it is fortunate for all of us that you're not that venal, or that you would fall into that sort of trap. But seriously? Pushing you like that? Gah.
09:20 <Ali> Screw you Dark link
09:20 <Jackie> aka nsfw link owo
09:24 <Golden> Ha
09:27 <Cepheid> Yeah, and I'm the kind of person who can't forget every little bit "bad" that I have done, no matter how insignificant. Or, that used to be 100% of the case anyways. I had finally gotten over some memories. Until that little spiel.
09:29 <Golden> Hm..
09:30 <Cepheid> I think I'm gonna go set up an appointment with my counselor at school for this week.
09:31 <Cepheid> I need to rant and vent, and I don't want to bother people right now.
09:32 * Finwe hats on Ali.
09:32 <Finwe> Good afternoon, everypony.
09:32 * Finwe doffs himself.
09:32 <Cepheid> On the other hand, I did notice something that might indicate my growing agitation and overall mood.
09:33 <Ali> Great, kill Morpha, get Skulltula token
09:33 * Schism facehoofs.
09:33 <Cepheid> Heh.
09:33 <Schism> Cepheid: Oh?
09:34 <Schism> And yes, speaking with the counselor is almost certainly a great idea.
09:35 * ConfusionRift hmms. "That is indeed a burger launcher."
09:35 <Cepheid> I get into periods where I repeatedly tense my hands and release them, or clench them into fists repeatedly. I also crack my wrists a lot.
09:36 <Ali> Stupid game
09:37 <Ali> Trolled by the fire arrows
09:37 <Ali> It was a song
09:37 <Ali> But it was not the song you were looking for.
09:37 * Schism thinks of useless songs. "Oh?'
09:38 <Cepheid> Mmm. That's right. I get to take the trains today.
09:39 <ConfusionRift> I hate to say it, but... the Song of Storm?
09:39 <Schism> Oh, that's nice, Cephy. o3o
09:40 <Schism> ConfusionRift, I'm half tempted to guess the Minuet of Forest.
09:41 <ConfusionRift> The temple songs are just to teleport to the temples, and that's about it... now that I think of it.
09:41 <Cepheid> Oh god we just drove by a dead skunk.
09:41 <Schism> Wasn't the Spirit Temple one required to enter in the first place?
09:43 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, but all the others just leave you near the temples.
09:43 * Schism nodnods.
09:43 <Golden> Again temple songs are required to teleport around the world. Song of Storms isn't all that useless for it unlocks a dungeon.
09:44 <ConfusionRift> That's why I changed my answer. :P
09:44 <Golden> The most useless ones are in Majora's Mask where some of the ones on walls just spawns rupees.
09:44 <Golden> "Oh you played a song on a wall? Here is 5 green rupees."
09:46 <Cepheid> Huh. Trains have heated seats. How long before one breaks and someone catches fire?
09:47 <Golden> Depends on how much it is used, and how much maintenance is done on the coaches of the train.
09:49 <Golden> Along if they do or don't have safety measures in place to stop that from happening
09:50 <Cepheid> Alongside various breakdowns over the excessively delayed implementation of the new train line, at one point, the delay was caused by the fact that in the first Winter test, panels were falling off because of the extreme cold. Oh, and the heating system overloaded itself in the same scenario and broke down.
09:52 <Tirek> Stopped streaming for now, worked until my arm was sore.
09:54 <Ali> Ah Volvagia the Skull token
09:54 <Ali> Oh the song I'm missing?
09:54 <Ali> Requiem of Spirit
09:54 <Ali> Cause I need child Link to plant the seed
09:55 <Ali> To turn into an adult to get the Mirror Shield that's where the Heart Piece is normally
09:55 <Ali> But the only way child Link can get to the Spirit Temple, is by the song.
09:55 <Golden> You'll get it soon. Also Ceph I see your point, but that is really just poor timing on the planning part.
09:56 <Cepheid> True. That said there were two years of delays, almost. But it is nice to see the train functioning nos.
09:56 <Cepheid> Now*

09:57 <Golden> For if the manufacturers planned better they would of implemented it in a control coach to test indoors. Then if that worked they would slowly test it for colder temperatures.
09:58 <Cepheid> Mmhm.
09:59 <Cepheid> Hum. Purdue Pharma is filing for bankruptcy protection.
09:59 <Cepheid> Heh. That announcement reminds me of a story.
10:00 <Golden> Huh
10:00 <Cepheid> "Please remember to take all your belongings with you."
10:00 <Schism> I would dearly like to know how Purdue, which made untold billions of dollars creating an opioid epidemic within the United States and Canada, has run into bankruptcy.
10:00 <Cepheid> So, basically the story goes like this.
10:01 <Cepheid> WIS, my employer, one day forgot a box with their Wizard scanners behind at the St. Laurent mall by mistake.
10:01 <Cepheid> Now, these things are not cheap. $5000 a unit.
10:01 <Schism> And proprietary!
10:01 <Cepheid> So, here is this unseeming box just sitting outside the mall. Guess what happened.
10:02 <Cepheid> Security called police. Police called bomb squad.
10:02 * Schism blink.
10:02 <Cepheid> Bomb squad detonated about $100,000 worth of equipment.
10:02 * Schism nods.
10:02 <Cepheid> It was an unassuming box, left outside of a mall entrance at 5 AM.
10:03 <Cepheid> They made the right call to be honest.
10:03 <Schism> Oh, indeed. But I have to wonder... how quickly the team lead responsible for that oversight was canned.
10:03 <Cepheid> He wasn't.
10:04 <Cepheid> Truth told I say it was worth 100,000. But that was initial valuem
10:04 <Cepheid> It was, by that point, worth a few hundred.
10:04 <Schism> Mmm, standard depreciation.
10:04 <Cepheid> The parent company is hesitant to replace aging hardware. So all the units are busted up, malfunctioning and rattling on the inside.
10:05 <Cepheid> As of my last job with them, the newest unit they had on hand was stolen from the Kingston crew.
10:05 * Schism whistles.
10:06 <Cepheid> Hum. My stop on the new train is the second-to-last stop.
10:06 <Cepheid> Which is coming up after this one.
10:07 <Cepheid> So... In all? Slightly longer trip to school than usual. But not super-cramped because not a bus.
10:08 <Schism> Worth it, then, chance of exploding seats aside?
10:08 <Cepheid> But then again I also took the bus to the start of the line, so..
10:10 <Ali> Its getting more and more likely this is a Biggeron Sword Requiem
10:13 <Cepheid> Hum. Transfer is nice and quick. Go down the station boarding area, down the stairs, and there's the #2.
10:16 <Cepheid> Ye know, I want to play with GPU ray tracing. Particularly, I want to use it to see if it can be used for things other than lighting.

10:50 <Ali> Down goes Ganon
10:50 <Cepheid> That was a bad idea. Went through the tunnels. Blah my lungs feel like they got mushrooms growing in em now.
10:57 * Ali boops the Schism
10:57 <Schism> Yay for the Ganon clear!
10:58 * Schism starts a new run. It's ... not going well to start.
10:58 <Ali> I'm not going to fully randomize that game ever again
10:58 <Schism> Not with keysanity, certainly.
10:58 <Ali> Doing all those randoms made the game nearly 100%
10:58 <Ali> Keysanity maybe, but not with shrubsanity and skullsanity on
10:59 <Ali> I don't think I'll ever turn on Skullsanity again though
10:59 <Ali> adding in 100 more items into the pool 50 that aren't needed, not really fun.
11:03 <Schism> Oh. Zora gave me a hammer. For once, something I'd actually pay 500 rupees for.
11:05 <Ali> Gimme 500 rupees, oh you gave me 1 too many
11:09 <Cepheid> You people and your randomizers. *Quietly notes down to implement one in his games.*
11:09 <Ali> Heh, at least it wasn't me whining to play IR with others~

11:16 * Cepheid arrives at Herpderp Labs after getting coffee and food. Better wifi signal here, also outlets, and better seating.
11:16 <Cepheid> That said, it's a pretty egregious example of the school not trusting anyone with anything at all.
11:16 <Cepheid> All the chairs and tables are bolted into the floors.
11:17 * Cepheid wonders if he can get a IoT coffee maker that's compatible with that april fools day protocol.
11:19 <Ali> You must stay they really want to keep their stuff.....pinned down~
11:21 <Cepheid> Heh.
11:21 <Cepheid> It's actually like this all over the university, really.
11:21 <Cepheid> Practically anything of value is bolted to the floors or tables.
11:21 <Cepheid> Or the walls.
11:22 <Cepheid> Or they have those magnetic scanners at every exit, including emergency ones, and have those magnetic anti-theft strips on the stuff.
11:22 <Ali> Must mean you'd REALLY want it if you'd try to steal it.
11:22 <Cepheid> Some of the stuff actually is worth it, yes.
11:22 <Schism> Mushroom from the Eastern Palace, bring to the Witch, get... oh, sword 2. Yay.
11:22 <Ali> Sad to think that these places need to be locked down like a prison
11:22 <Schism> Aye. :<
11:22 <Cepheid> Writing/Art department gets some pretty high-end Macs. Meanwhile comp sci gets garbage.
11:22 <Cepheid> Mostly refurbished dells.
11:23 <Schism> Yeah, well, code monkeys don't NEED equipment!
11:23 <Cepheid> Seriously, anything STEM is basically ****ed over.
11:23 <Ali> So what's the difference? *shot*
11:23 <Ali> Macs are... overpriced craptops
11:23 <Cepheid> As it is, everything comp sci, everything physics, everything mathematics..
11:23 <Cepheid> Is all crammed into one building.
11:23 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, business has like, five buildings, with a new one going up.
11:23 <Cepheid> Art and such got like, 2 or 3 buildings.
11:24 <Cepheid> Architecture's got 4, and is building the new business building.
11:24 <Cepheid> And people wonder why Math scores and such are going down in Canada.
11:24 <Cepheid> It's because we invest in making white-collar criminals and useless liberal arts masters.
11:24 <Ali> Pft
11:25 <Cepheid> My sister's degrees are in women's history and general history. You know what she's teaching?
11:25 <Cepheid> Everything but that.
11:25 <Cepheid> And she's god-awful at mathematics, to boot.
11:25 <Cepheid> If the federal government implemented sweeping math reform, requiring teachers teaching math pass a test before they can teach..
11:26 <Cepheid> My sister would fail.
11:26 <Cepheid> She knows what sine and cosine are, but doesn't know what trigonometry.
11:26 <Ali> The old 1+1=11 type problem?
11:26 * Cepheid is kinda just shitting on his siter as it makes him feel a bit better right now.
11:26 <Ali> You forgot tangent Cepheid~
11:26 <Cepheid> Ali: She doesn't know what that is.
11:26 <Cepheid> I had to explain to her what it was.
11:26 <Ali> I haven't taken trig since....uh...high school
11:27 <Cepheid> Yeah, my sister was terrible at all things math.
11:27 <Ali> I rememeber sine, cosine, and tangent, but not what they do
11:27 <Cepheid> Really, when it comes to education and such..
11:27 <Cepheid> The only thing my sister praises me for is my writing, apparently.
11:27 <Schism> If it's the only thing she can understand, isn't that for the best?
11:27 <Ali> People think that cause of computers/calculators, math isn't as important sadly
11:27 <Cepheid> I only learned this a month ago, when she did her rant, but she was under the impression that I was a dolt when it came to writing, up until I sent her an e-mail a few months back.
11:28 <Cepheid> Because unlike her, I never went to high school.
11:28 <Ali> ...
11:28 <Ali> Just cause you didn't go to high school
11:28 <Cepheid> So I never got immersed in English writing and such, especially Hamlet, etc.
11:28 <Ali> Doesn't make you a dolt
11:28 <Cepheid> Well.
11:28 <Ali> Engrish, bleh
11:28 <Ali> I hated taking 4 years of forced english
11:28 <Cepheid> To her, the issue was that I never had to deal with some of the classes she did in the same way.
11:28 <Cepheid> No book reports, no reading about "great" plays, and the like.
11:29 <Ali> I would gladly trade away English classes
11:29 <Cepheid> She was under this inexplicable belief that by not taking such courses, my English writing skills would falter and be garbage.
11:29 <Ali> I did Algebra 2 without a calculator
11:29 <Cepheid> And, I won't lie, for a while it was. I remember an era when I used to not use caps.
11:29 <Ali> Any farther than it currently has?
11:29 <Cepheid> But shortly after mmm...
11:29 <Cepheid> The Ragnarok Online era, I think?
11:30 * Ali doesn't remember that
11:30 <Cepheid> I started getting into this habit of cleaning up my writing. For about a year I stopped using all contractions.
11:30 <Cepheid> It's before we met, Ali.
11:30 <Cepheid> Long, long before we met.
11:30 <Ali> I ment more the Ragnarok online part :P
11:30 <Schism> Indeed.
11:30 <Cepheid> If anything, I think the only person here who remembers me during that era is Schism.
11:30 <Ali> You two long time friends or something?
11:31 <Cepheid> As we were friends back then. Though, I'm kind of surprised he treated me as such. I was an asshole back then.
11:31 <Schism> We all are, in our past.
11:31 <Cepheid> You could say that. We met back in Ragnarok Online/Phantasy Star Online. Early years of both.
11:31 <Cepheid> We more or less worked together as a dysfunctional group.
11:31 <Ali> Ah
11:32 <Cepheid> Schism, I moreso than most, to be honest. I was a spoiled kid, as I remember. I whined a lot, and I think a lot of it just had to do with my upbringing as a temperamental child.
11:32 <Ali> I don't think I have any friends left from any era
11:32 <Cepheid> I'm sure you do.
11:32 * Ali stares at steam list. "Nope, none before pony."
11:32 <Cepheid> Me and Schism, for example, went our own ways. Or, at least, I kinda just up and disappeared.
11:32 <Ali> Then you both ended up in the pony fandom?
11:32 <Cepheid> I just recall drifting apart from the group for a while, don't remember the reasons why.
11:33 <Cepheid> Yeah, pretty much. We ran into each other here in #EquestriaDaily, in fact.
11:33 <Schism> Yup. And then I went, "Wait, you're--" and the rest is history.
11:33 <Ali> I'm sure you've known by now, but the long time friends I had...Finally gave up on me
11:33 <Cepheid> It... couldn't have been that long of a separation though, since I'm kind of surprised that Schism recognized me under the name Cepheid.
11:33 <Cepheid> I don't remember using that name up until a short while before pony. So my memory must be a bit off there.
11:34 <Schism> Wanna say t'was when we played PSU?
11:34 <Cepheid> Mmm, I won't lie. You can be trying, at times, Ali. It's mostly the self-deprecating behaviour, but I'm willing to work past it because I once went through the same problem for several years. It'd be hypocritical of me to leave you high and dry over that.
11:34 <Cepheid> Schism: ... Yeah, that'd be about it.
11:34 <Cepheid> Actually, now that I think about it..
11:34 <Cepheid> The reason I drifted apart was due to one of my friends being absolutely outright embarassing in front of the lot of you guys.
11:35 <Ali> I have my struggles yes. A part of Autism and a part of just not understanding
11:35 <Cepheid> For some reason, that hit me so hard I kinda just... stopped appearing, yeah.
11:35 <Ali> And a ton of self doubt
11:35 <Cepheid> Ali: Truth told, I wonder if I fall under the spectrum of autism. I haven't been declared as such explicitly, but some of the symptoms I have match up with some that I've seen in you, and what I hear occasionally is covered by the term.
11:36 <Ali> Who knows, though I don't get as aggrivated by things
11:36 <Ali> My biggest issues is the self doubt and new struggles that keep popping up
11:37 <Ali> Like working for example
11:37 <Cepheid> I must admit my agitation and temperamental problems are a little weird, especially when compared against common traits of anger management issues.
11:37 <Cepheid> Yeah, I know that feeling Ali.
11:37 <Cepheid> The only thing that's managed to counter it for me is my ADHD medication.
11:37 <Ali> Like out of nowhere, my ears go to complete *yay*
11:37 <Cepheid> At least, the self-doubt stuff.
11:37 <Cepheid> The rest is all over the place.
11:38 <Ali> The one that's screwing me over the most right now Cepheid is the Hyperacusis
11:38 <Ali> The sensitivity has gotten so bad that I can be torn up by sound for a week and a half
11:39 <Ali> Where everything is loud. Flush a toilet? Too loud. Wash hands, water too loud
11:39 <Ali> Then if it gets bad enough, migraines start to kick in
11:39 <Cepheid> Guh.
11:39 <Ali> And this can go on for a week
11:39 <Cepheid> Has it always been that way for you? Or was it something that developed?
11:40 <Ali> Apperently I had Hyperacusis back when I was younger
11:40 <Ali> But of course, that was during the age that autism wasn't known.
11:40 <Ali> I was really easily torn up by fire drills due to how loud the buzzers were
11:40 <Ali> Nobody thought of a thing that could've been a sign of hyperacusis back then
11:41 <Cepheid> In my case, my problem with noise is caused by the whole living-with-profound-hearing-loss-for-sixteen years. In other words, it developed over time as a result of conditions.
11:41 <Ali> This isn't hearing loss though
11:41 <Cepheid> Yeah, I know.
11:41 <Ali> Its the other way around
11:41 <Cepheid> You misunderstand.
11:41 <Ali> Which I'd almost say is worse
11:41 <Ali> I know I know
11:41 <Cepheid> It's not hearing loss I deal with now.
11:41 <Cepheid> It's the whole "I don't know how to tune anything out and I want to punch the people making noise."
11:41 <Cepheid> Ironically?
11:42 <Ali> There are some days that I can't have my PC up above 2 volume
11:42 <Cepheid> Do you remember the CRT monitor era?
11:42 <Ali> Of course
11:42 <Schism> Ah, the lovely whine of the CRT.
11:42 <Cepheid> How those monitors, when they aged, and started failing, would- Yeah, that.
11:42 <Ali> I remember when 99% of TVs were CRT
11:42 *** Quits: ryaxnb21 (ryaxnb@Pony-hj0ath.ca.comcast.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
11:42 <Cepheid> I never, once, in my entire life, heard that whine. And we were using CRTs even after my hearing returned to normal.
11:43 <Cepheid> Other people would go bat**** insane at the college campus, complaining that the monitor I was using in the labs was making a whine, and to do something about it.
11:43 <Cepheid> But I couldn't for the life of me hear it.
11:43 * Ali ponyshrugs
11:43 <Cepheid> And yet, I could hear the server computer *outside the room and down the hall* beeping.
11:43 <Ali> Its been so long since I've used a CRT monitor I wouldn't remember it
11:43 <Cepheid> Campus was really effin' proud of that machine.
11:44 <Cepheid> Had the server room itself behind a glass display.
11:44 <Schism> For some reason, the phrase 'white elephant' comes to mind.
11:45 <Ali> Anyway, I better try and get some rest. That nap really messed me up.
11:45 <Ali> But I had to do it due to the migraine stealing all my energy
11:45 <Ali> Also those are starting to become a bit more frequent than I like
11:46 <Ali> But that's another babble for another time.
11:46 * Ali flops over to try and sleep some.
11:46 * Cepheid hugs
11:46 <Cepheid> Get better soon.
11:46 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-cvibue.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)
11:46 * Schism hugs the cute Ali as well. Aw.
11:47 <Cepheid> Migraines suck. I haven't experienced a true migraine, but I've come close.
11:47 <Cepheid> ... No, that's not 100% true.
11:47 <Cepheid> I have suffered migraines, but short-term ones.
11:47 <Cepheid> Only twice, though. I haven't experienced them since. Both occurred within the same week, at Algonquin College, first semester, during the Fall.
11:48 <Cepheid> I just recall massive dizziness, high fever, extreme nausea and vomiting, and tunnel visioning a few times.
11:48 <Schism> I think I recall you undergoing those events.
11:49 <Schism> That sounds like a very insane flu, too.
11:50 <Cepheid> It wasn't a flu.
11:50 <Cepheid> It was just one day, I feel sick to my stomach, and think it was because I hadn't ate anything. So I go get some food. Go to eat, the nausea gets worse. Excuse myself from the class for the day, head over to the school clinic, given some gravol. I called my dad, sat outside the main entrance.
11:51 <Cepheid> 15 minutes later, I'm vomiting into the nearest garbage bin, half-asleep, and as my dad arrives, he comes and finds me, and tries to help me walk over to the car. I fall over and get horribly sick again, dry heaves.
11:51 <Cepheid> The other case was a few days later, I had felt fine in between.
11:51 * Schism nods. o_o
11:51 <Cepheid> Same setup, nausea, try to eat food, nausea gets worse. Figure something's wrong, so I head to the clinic, get some gravol, and catch a bus home.
11:53 <Cepheid> Get off about 1/3rd of the way to keel over onto the grass with dry heaves. Few minutes later, catch the next bus. Get 2/3rds of the way, and I have to get off at a bus station for the same reason. I fall over as the bus doors open, onto the pavement. People just walk around me as I crawl over, tunnel visioning really badly, to a bench. I sit down, do breathing exercises to keep my stomach down for about 10 minutes, then
11:53 <Cepheid> catch the next bus.
11:54 <Schism> That sounds... very comparable to some panic attacks I've had and heard of.
11:55 *** Joins: ryaxnb21 (ryaxnb@Pony-hj0ath.ca.comcast.net)
11:56 <Cepheid> Except this was all pain from headaches.
11:56 <Cepheid> Like, absolutely massively painful headaches.
11:56 <Cepheid> Worst I ever experienced.
11:57 <Schism> ... Ow. Yeah.
11:57 <Cepheid> It was the weirdest situation, as it was only those two, specific cases.
11:57 <Cepheid> That's it.
12:00 <Cepheid> After that, they never occurred again.
12:00 <Cepheid> Just the daily sinus headaches.
12:00 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Submit Your Friendship is Magic Season 9 Finale Meetup! [ http://tinyurl.com/y4sutfqy ]
12:00 <Cepheid> I'd say that period was when the infection took root, but the problem had existed since my inner-ear infections went away.
12:03 <Cepheid> Really, the only problems I have nowadays are my breathing, which my doctor think may be caused by my sinuses and nose. And the fact that I'm probably getting injured and not realizing it. Oh, and the pneumonia. Always the pneumonia.
12:04 <Schism> Well, that lattermost, yes. @_@
12:05 <Cepheid> It's concerning, given it seems to be damaging my lungs further.
12:06 <Cepheid> Shadowing in both lungs now, and scarring all over both lungs.
12:08 <Cepheid> The only thing at this point I can think of is too call my ENT and respirologist, and set up appointments to have biopsies done on a section of my trachea that I've identified as a source of concern, and my sinus infection(possibly even the surface of my sinuses themselves.)
12:08 * Schism nods. >_O "It's definitely at that point where you're gonna have to get those biopsies, no question."
12:08 <Cepheid> And then have the two compared, to see if they are the same. At which point we'd verify that yes, all of my problems are related to the sinuses.
12:09 <Cepheid> Maybe also find an antibiotic or set of antibiotics that might target the infection completely.
12:10 <Cepheid> So, as I understand..
12:11 <Cepheid> The prof for Japanese sent out an e-mail about what to do over the weekend.
12:11 <Cepheid> I didn't get it.
12:11 <Cepheid> I'm starting to think she doesn't like me.
12:11 <Schism> ... Huh.
12:12 <Cepheid> I mean, she "discussed" using dictionaries with me the other day, suggested I get accomodation among other things, some stuff that was essentially guilt-tripping, especially based on her tone of voice.
12:12 <Cepheid> And then for the lecture?
12:12 <Cepheid> Didn't acknowledge me the entire time. I'd answer questions, but she wouldn't respond until someone else answered. She also didn't pair me up with anyone for the pair work in class.
12:13 <Schism> That's ... starting to seem exceedingly problematical. Do you have a faculty advisor you could talk to about that?
12:13 <Schism> To act as a mediator, that is to say.
12:15 <Cepheid> I'm gonna give it another week, if she continues the behaviour tomorrow and Thursday, yeah, I plan to go talk to the faculty head.
12:15 <Cepheid> Unfortunately they won't be able to do much.
12:16 <Cepheid> SHe's the only prof teaching the course this semester.
12:16 <Cepheid> Basically the problem I had was that she asked us to do a composition, which is fine and dandy.
12:16 <Cepheid> But I panicked because while I knew I knew the words required, I couldn't remember how to spell them.
12:16 <Schism> Well, in the interim, you could ask, "Hey, could you check and make sure I didn't make a mistake when I gave you my e-mail address?"
12:16 * Schism nods.
12:17 <Cepheid> The prof uses a mass e-mailing system implemented by the school.
12:17 <Cepheid> And I got the first such e-mail she sent out the week before.
12:17 <Schism> Aha.
12:17 <Cepheid> Anyways..
12:17 <Cepheid> Yeah, I wrote down I was having a panic attack on the composition thing in English, and why.
12:17 <Cepheid> The discussion we had the Thursday following was over the use of dictionaries in class.
12:18 <Cepheid> She states we're not allowed to use dictionaries in class.
12:18 <Cepheid> At all.
12:18 <Cepheid> For any reason.
12:18 <Schism> Yea. You'd mentioned... and that still honestly seems like a ridiculous restriction to me.
12:18 <Cepheid> Yeah, she argues that she didn't make that rule, but honestly?
12:18 <Cepheid> I'm thinking "bull****"
12:18 <Schism> Yeah, she totally did.
12:19 <Cepheid> Anyways, our discussion involved an civil argument with me giving my reasoning for why I should be allowed to use a dictionary, and her response?
12:19 <Schism> Ask an ESL teacher if they'd ever restrict the use of dictionaries during lessons, and they'd probably look at you like you were completely mad.
12:19 <Cepheid> "Well, if you use a dictionary during tests and quizzes, it gives you an unfair advantage over the other students." I didn't mention tests or quizzes.
12:19 * Schism shakes his head.
12:20 <Cepheid> These were in-class 'assignments' where we do a bit of work, she marks it, and hands it back. THe marking is in the form of spelling mistakes and/or appearance of the text.
12:20 <Cepheid> You know what these assignments amount to regarding my grades?
12:20 <Cepheid> 1%.
12:20 <Schism> Bupkis?
12:20 <Schism> Ah. Yup.
12:20 <Cepheid> We get a single mark for doing them all and handing them in. So long as we hand in something, a single sheet, for every single in-class assignment, she'll give us 1% at the end of the term.
12:21 <Cepheid> Then she has the gall to tell me that, I should go get accomodation.
12:21 <Cepheid> First off, you just told me I can't use a dictionary because it gives me an unfair advantage during tests and quizzes.
12:22 <Cepheid> Yeah, well, you know what accomodation is, for me?
12:22 <Cepheid> It's an unfair advantage during quizzes and tests, in my eyes.
12:22 <Cepheid> At least, for me.
12:22 <Cepheid> I don't have enough of a condition to warrant needing it.
12:22 <Schism> Indeed.
12:23 <Cepheid> If she meant to suggest it as, well, just a suggestion, I took it more as an insult.
12:23 <Cepheid> Especially given what she had stated just moments before.
12:23 <Cepheid> And the fact that you chose suggesting accomodation as your FIRST SUGGESTION is also slightly insulting to me.
12:24 <Cepheid> I went four months without using the language, I forgot a few words, I need to remember how to write them down, or need to refresh the link between the word and meaning. That's it.
12:25 *** Quits: Golden (uid250033@Pony-360sli.charlton.irccloud.com) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)
12:25 <Schism> Indeed. You're not mentally disabled or anything of the sort. Rebuilding indices is not that strange.
12:26 <Cepheid> In any case, after the incident in the lecture with her ignoring me, I just up and went "eff it" and spent the entire lecture practicing my writing, while listening in on what she was saying.
12:26 <Cepheid> I won't lie either, that class is why I'm... twitchy lately.
12:27 <Cepheid> I have work to do for it, but I don't want to do it. I'm not enjoying the class as is.
12:27 <Cepheid> It's making me hesitant to want to work on anything related to the class, because of the prof.
12:27 <Cepheid> I'd rather work on everything else other than that class, but I have to work on that class, and I know it, so I get myself locked up and... well..
12:27 <Cepheid> I waste my time.
12:27 * Schism nods, "It's like a job where your boss is... well, like that."
12:28 <Cepheid> And my brain works in funky ways.
12:28 <Cepheid> If I know the priority, and ignore it in favour of working on something else still school-related, I find myself dragging my feet anyways.
12:28 <Cepheid> Because it's not working on the priority thing.
12:28 <Schism> Sounds very human to me.
12:28 <Cepheid> Also, my PC is a big-ass distraction.
12:29 <Schism> Very standard, that is.
12:29 <Cepheid> This is why I left early today.
12:29 <Cepheid> I'm trying to get myself into waking up really early, and going in really early, to get away from my PC, which can play ALL THE GAMES.
12:30 *** Quits: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-tpdjag.livnmi.sbcglobal.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
12:31 <Cepheid> Anyhow, the assignments are simple, at least, so I'll have them done.
12:31 <Cepheid> I have to come up with a few-minute introduction of myself, my hobbies, pets, family, etc.
12:32 <Cepheid> And I also have to write about what I did last week, using past-tense affirmative and negative conjugation.
12:32 <Cepheid> And a page from the workbook.
12:32 <Cepheid> The "last week" thing is really simple. Like, one page, using a typical composition paper that you see the Japanese students using.
12:33 <Cepheid> So like, a total of four or five sentences.
12:33 <Cepheid> I plan to... be snarky with the "What I did last week"
12:34 *** Quits: Filly_Nightmares (Surreal@Cutest.Floofy.Changeling.Batpone) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
12:34 <Cepheid> "Last week, I studied Japanese on my own, it was fun." "The Japanese classes however were not fun, they caused me great stress." "I wrote applications for COMP3501." and such. :P
12:39 <Cepheid> Ironically, all this getting worked up about the class now, has caused me to work on it, at campus. o3o
12:39 <Schism> Well, tis an ill wind that blows no good. o3o
12:40 * Surreal_Nightmares uses Schism as bed and goes sleepies on!
12:40 *** Surreal_Nightmares is now known as Sleeping_Nightmares
12:40 * Sleeping_Nightmares purrs
12:41 <Cepheid> The single page from the workbook is easy.
12:42 <Cepheid> It's just conjugating a bunch of i- and na- adjectives to their present-tense affirmative, present-tense negative, past-tense affirmative, and past-tense negative.
12:42 <Cepheid> Most of them are simple. But there's one I guarantee is gonna throw students, still.
12:42 <Cepheid> いい - ii - "good"
12:42 <Cepheid> It's an irregular case.
12:42 <Cepheid> Present-tense affirmative is just "iidesu."
12:43 <Cepheid> But every other conjugation relies on the word that "ii" is derived from.
12:43 <Schism> Present-tense affirmative: "it is good." And that word is?
12:43 <Cepheid> "yoi"
12:44 <Cepheid> The present-tense negative is thus "yokunaidesu"
12:44 <Cepheid> Not "ikunaidesu"
12:44 * ConfusionRift flops hard, like falling on concrete, except bouncy.
12:44 <Schism> Aha. *nods*
12:46 <Cepheid> The fun one is past-tense negative. A step-by-step process essentially is "apply rule for present-tense negative, then apply rule for past-tense affirmative."
12:47 <Cepheid> Past-tense affirmative, you drop the 'i' at the end, and put in 'katta'.
12:47 <Cepheid> Present-tense negative, you drop the 'i' at the end, and put in 'kunai'.
12:47 <Schism> That makes sense. "That was / not good".
12:48 <Cepheid> So, to go from dictionary form to past-tense negative: drop the i, apply kunai, drop the i, apply katta.
12:48 * Schism headtilts, "Yokunakatta?"
12:48 <Cepheid> Yep.
12:48 <Cepheid> Apply "desu" to make it a statement, afterwards.
12:49 <Finwe> Capt Koopz.
12:49 <Finwe> o7
12:50 <Cepheid> Literally, from all I've learned, that's all "desu" is used for. To turn a sentence into a statement of fact.
12:51 <Cepheid> It's also polite, in comparison to the less formal sentence-enders that do the same.
12:51 <Cepheid> Also, there's one sentence-ending syllable that translates directly into a typical Canadianism.
12:52 <Cepheid> 「ね」 or "ne". It's used as a sentence-ending syllable to add a request for affirmation of the statement. A direct translation to Canadian English would be appending "Eh?" to a statement. "That was a good game, eh?"
12:52 <Koopz> RAdm. Finwe o7
12:53 <Schism> Desune = "Isn't that so?", then?
12:53 <Finwe> Eh?
12:53 <Cepheid> While it could be seen as that, no.
12:53 <Koopz> neee?
12:53 <Cepheid> The phrase they use instead is soudesuka?
12:53 <Cepheid> "Is that so?"
12:54 <Schism> Aha.
12:55 <Cepheid> Sometimes even just shortened to "souka?"
12:55 <Cepheid> Fun note, though. The addition of the question mark in the above is actually just an english-ism being applied for explanatory purposes.
12:56 <Cepheid> In Japanese, if you end a sentence in 'ka', it's usually a question, and a question mark never follows.
12:58 <Cepheid> Of course, they still do the lilt that comes with asking a question, so..
12:58 <Koopz> say when does one know that a word ends?
12:59 <Koopz> because the japanese apparently don't need spaces
12:59 *** Joins: ADragonHoarding (Mibbit@Pony-krk.qod.41.69.IP)
13:00 <Cepheid> The only way I've learned thus far is to look for changes in symbol group.
13:01 <Cepheid> For the most part, every word starts with kanji.
13:01 <Cepheid> So if you see kanji after hiragana, it's a new word.
13:01 <Cepheid> If you see katakana after hiragana or kanji, it's a new word.
13:01 <Cepheid> That said, besides those traits..
13:02 <Cepheid> You're SOL if the person writing uses hiragana for everything instead of a mix of kanji and hiragana.
13:02 <Cepheid> You basically have to know the context, and the word readings in order to work with all-hiragana text.
13:03 <Koopz> so beginners have to look at the whole sentence, try to cut it into words and see if it makes sense
13:04 <Koopz> i've only learned hiragana, katakana and really just about a handful of kanji so far but it seems like the language keeps on getting weirder and weirder
13:05 <Koopz> "you only need to learn about 3k kanjis" ಠ_ಠ
13:05 <Cepheid> Heh.
13:05 <Cepheid> Actually about 2000.
13:05 <Cepheid> There's a listing of the top 2000 most-used kanji.
13:05 <Cepheid> Those 2000 are usually sufficient for JLPT 2 or 1.
13:06 <Koopz> highly doubt i'd ever be able to memorize those
13:06 <Koopz> the non-systematic nature of how hiragana is built up already gave me a headache
13:06 <Cepheid> Would you say you'd need a dictionary on a regular basis as you practice and learn?
13:07 <Koopz> double-click, rightclick -> Translate
13:07 <Cepheid> I'm only asking for a reason related to my current Japanese prof.
13:08 <Cepheid> She insists we're not allowed to use dictionaries in class. Ever. And also implied with her response to my argument that we'd never need to use one in the real world.
13:08 <Koopz> is she japanese?
13:08 <Cepheid> No.
13:08 <Cepheid> British.
13:08 <Cepheid> At least, I think.
13:09 <Cepheid> I can't pinpoint her accent. It's British sounding, but also sounds slightly French.
13:09 <Koopz> so not native speaker
13:09 <Cepheid> No.
13:09 <Schism> Well, remember that for English, there are dictionaries based around 'the ten hundred most used words'.
13:10 <Koopz> i'd say dictionaries are fine
13:10 <Finwe> 英国の o3o
13:10 <Koopz> especially for such a weird language
13:10 <Cepheid> I'd actually ensure that students have access to a dictionary in language classes, university/college rules be damned. You don't learn that way. I'd take the dictionaries away for exams and quizzes, of course.
13:10 * Finwe noms on Koopz-kun.
13:10 <Cepheid> But everything else done in class? If you forget a word, fine, just look it up. Learn how to use the dictionary, in fact.
13:11 <Cepheid> Since the ordering of words is different from what we're used to.
13:11 <Koopz> yamete kudasai! >.<
13:11 <Lumindia_> 柊 友人
13:11 <Cepheid> In any case..
13:11 <Cepheid> Me and the prof don't get along.
13:11 <Cepheid> Almost certain she hates me.
13:12 <Finwe> こんにちは, Lumindia_-san.
13:12 <Lumindia_> the kanji I posted are "Hīragi yūjin"
13:12 <Lumindia_> ... oh okay
13:12 <Lumindia_> Hiiragi Yuujin
13:12 *** Lumindia_ is now known as Lumindia
13:13 <Cepheid> Interestingly, your name can be written in katakana without issue.
13:13 <Cepheid> Aside from the l-r issue.
13:13 <Schism> Randomly, have a cat with tufted ears. https://twitter.com/meowlibrary/status/1173276986585669632
13:13 <Cepheid> ルミンディアさん
13:14 <Lumindia> Ru-Mi-N-Di-A?
13:14 <Cepheid> Mine's a bit trickier.
13:14 <Cepheid> セフィエドさん
13:14 <Lumindia> wait, there's six characters in ルミンディア
13:14 <Lumindia> but only five syllables
13:15 <Cepheid> There's no "di" sound in the Japanese language, so it's represented by two characters.
13:15 <Cepheid> Rather than creating a whole new symbol for it.
13:15 <Lumindia> ah, okay
13:16 <Lumindia> wait why is there no 'di' sound?
13:16 <Cepheid> ディ is "di"
13:16 <Cepheid> Because linguistics.
13:16 <Lumindia> but yeah, what I posted earlier is "Hiiragi Yuujin"
13:16 <Lumindia> both the name of my Touhou OC, and the name of my XIV character(though as Yuujin Hiiragi)
13:17 <Lumindia> I presume you know what each of those mean by tehmselves, right?
13:17 <Lumindia> [ Distant dictionary sounds? ]
13:17 <Cepheid> There's da, de, do, but no di or du. Instead, depending on who you ask and what you read, it's dzi, zi, or ji where "di" should be, or dzu, zu, or ju where "du" should be.
13:18 <Cepheid> As for the kanji of your character's name, they do have meanings, yes.
13:18 <Lumindia> it's actually a thinly veiled reference to a western musician
13:19 <Cepheid> The kanji themselves, in order, mean: "Holly", "Friend", "Person".
13:19 <Koopz> oh i thought you were a fan of "Natsume's Book of friends"
13:20 <Lumindia> not the first time I've gotten that, honestly
13:20 <ADragonHoarding> hOi
13:20 <Lumindia> and Cepheid: What's another word for "Friend" in an informal way?
13:20 <Lumindia> (in english)
13:21 <Koopz> buddy?
13:21 <Lumindia> yep
13:21 <ADragonHoarding> english synonyms: buddy, pal, homie
13:21 <Lumindia> it's basically "Buddy Holly"
13:21 <Cepheid> In Japanese, the word for "friend" is "tomodachi"
13:21 <Cepheid> But in English, yeah.
13:21 <Cepheid> Buddy, pal, etc.
13:22 <ADragonHoarding> "Oo oo oo I look just like Buddy Holly, oh ai oh and you're Mary Tyler Moore..."
13:23 <Schism> Lumindia: Have you ever read 'Soul Music', by Terry Pratchett?
13:23 * Finwe has.
13:23 <Lumindia> can't say I have
13:23 * Cepheid wanders off. Will be right back.
13:24 <Schism> There's a character there named 'Imp y Celyn', who's a bard. o3o
13:24 <Schism> Llamedos is of course nothing like Wales, though.
13:24 <Lumindia> Imp Y Celyn?
13:24 * Lumindia thinky
13:25 <Schism> Don't worry much. It translates to, roughly, "Bud on the Holly".
13:25 <Finwe> It's Welsh for bud of holly.
13:25 <Lumindia> heh
13:26 <Lumindia> so another reference
13:26 <Schism> Or possibly Gaelic. He starts a group known as "Music With Rocks In". :>
13:26 <Lumindia> cool
13:26 <Cepheid> My real name is a tad funny to write in Japanese. Especially since with my last name, it looks like I left out a syllable or extension of a sound.
13:27 <Finwe> Schism: He's also suspected to be Elvish by the dwarf Glod Glodsson.
13:27 <Cepheid> アンドリュー•ディオン
13:27 <Schism> Aye, though elves on the Disc are a bit different.
13:27 <Cepheid> My last name, Dionne, looks, and is, French.
13:27 <Schism> Connolly here, which is of course Irish. o3o;
13:28 <Cepheid> But at some point in my dad's side of the family, the family as a whole renounced their French heritage.
13:28 <Finwe> Merde avec ces françaises.
13:28 <Cepheid> Not so far as to change the name, but change the way it was pronounced. And indeed, even removing the French accent.
13:29 <Cepheid> The name is pronounced as if the last 'ne' were completely silent.
13:29 <Cepheid> So full stop after pronouncijg "Dion".
13:30 <Koopz> my parents gave me a french name, not knowing how it was pronounced
13:31 <Koopz> one e, one é
13:32 <Koopz> both being pronounced the same way here by everyone who didn't learn french
13:32 <Finwe> Renée?
13:32 <Koopz> René
13:32 <Koopz> my mom read it in some book and thought it'd be nice
13:33 <Koopz> then i had my first encounter with my french teachers
13:33 <Cepheid> That said, what I described is the Canadian English pronunciation. A majority of the family tree is spread across the US, with some in Britain and Europe.
13:33 <Finwe> I have Germanic first name and Christian second name.
13:33 <Cepheid> None in France, surprisingly.
13:34 <Cepheid> First name, no idea of the origins. Was picked randomly. Middle name is my father's first name. Second middle name is a baptismal name I'd prefer to be without. Then you know my last name.
13:34 <Koopz> if it weren't for that damned book i would've actually received the name "Mario"
13:35 <Finwe> Ville, short for Wilhelm, and Peter, after St. Peter.
13:36 <Koopz> so is it Peter Wilhelm or Wilhelm Peter?
13:36 <Cepheid> I'd like to renounce my baptismal name because of both the religious connotation, and the fact that it was forced upon me by a step-family that I want no association with. More the latter.
13:37 <Koopz> how much would that cost?
13:37 <Cepheid> I have no idea.
13:37 <Cepheid> And it's too much paperwork, really.
13:39 <Finwe> Koopz: Wilhelm first.
13:39 <Koopz> Sgt. Peter...
13:39 <Koopz> hmm...
13:40 *** Quits: ConfusionRift (ConfusionRi@Pony-vbt.6pu.237.104.IP) (Quit: Recharging the batteries. Laters! *shutdown*)
13:40 <Koopz> well... you've got family names that are usually being used as first name all across the globe
13:41 <Finwe> My paternal family name is Finnish and refers to firewood being sold by the family, and my maternal family name is Swedish and refers to a Lieutenant of the Swedish army who was the first inhabitant of the house where they lived.
13:41 <Koopz> even the japanese struggle with it
13:42 <Koopz> that's some interesting backstory there
13:42 <Finwe> Halkola, might be something like Loggins in English, and Danielsbacka, Daniel's Hill.
13:43 <Finwe> After Lieutenant Daniel Half-Bear.
13:43 <Finwe> Or Halvbjörn in Swedish.
13:43 <Finwe> He was obviously a large and strong man.
13:44 <Koopz> o.o
13:46 <Koopz> my family name was uh... used for people with southern looks, somehow having to do with hungary
13:46 <Cepheid> Oop, time for lecture.
13:46 <Cepheid> Back in a bit.
13:47 <Koopz> didn't look at my family tree but i'm pretty sure i'm not even remotely related with people from hungary
13:48 <Koopz> the name is apparently also being associated with bad manners
13:48 * Finwe smears Ungarische Bartwichse on Koopz.
13:48 <Koopz> that's... like the only trait i'd acknowledge i'm sharing xD
13:49 * Koopz now has a shiny beard
13:49 <Finwe> In Finnish, there's a German word used for people with bad manners.
13:50 <Finwe> Hunsvotti, comes from Hundsfotze.
13:50 <Koopz> now don't take me as an asshole, i'm just insenstive, say things without thinking of the consequences and would call myself rather blunt
13:50 <Koopz> insensitive*
13:50 <Finwe> I think that few who use the word actually think what it means in German.
13:51 <Koopz> naturally i can't really handle people who got a stick up their bum
13:53 <Finwe> Another word, kamasaksa, "stuff Saxon", means a pedlar, because most of the travelling salesmen in Finland came from the Hanseatic towns in Saxony.
13:54 <Finwe> The whole Germany is called Saxony in Finnish, actually.
13:55 <Cepheid> Meanwhile I just speak faster than my head can pick words.
13:55 <Koopz> really now?
13:55 <Finwe> Koopz: Yup, it's "Saksa".
13:55 * Koopz sits in Lower Saxony
13:55 <Cepheid> It's one thing I like about learning a new language. I consciously end up slowing down my speech.
13:56 <Finwe> Estonia is another country the name of which in Finnish is just one of their provinces.
13:56 <Finwe> It's called Viro, after Viru, their northernmost province.
13:57 <Finwe> Sweden, too, it's called Ruotsi after Roslagen, an area on the east coast of Sweden.
13:58 <Koopz> you gotta find a new name for us
13:58 <Koopz> you chose the worst province of all
13:59 * Cepheid flops about, arrives at lecture room.
14:00 <Finwe> While in Swedish it's Sverige, a contraction of Svea rike, the domain of Svea, although apart from Svealand, Sweden also consists of Götaland and Norrland.
14:00 <Koopz> we used to make jokes about making Bavaria independent so they can continoue goofing around without embarrassing the rest of germany but throughout the last years Saxony becamy such a thorn in our eyes
14:00 <Cepheid> Guh, I think I have a stalker-type student who's gonna bug me for help with everything.
14:00 <Koopz> continue*
14:00 <Finwe> Why's that?
14:02 <Koopz> a far-right party has been rising in the last years and for some reason the people in Saxony seem to like racism more and more, at quite a worrying rate
14:03 <Koopz> it's like they didn't learn anything *despite* being at the worse side of germany when it got split
14:05 <Finwe> Auferstanden aus Ruinen und der Zukunft zugewandt?
14:06 <Koopz> nah their main hobby is complaining
14:06 <Finwe> The old East German Hymn begins with those words.
14:11 <Koopz> idk about what the east germans learn nowadays but i barely got taught anything about the after-war-time
14:12 <Koopz> i'm pretty sure after i left elementary school it's just been 4 years of WWII
14:13 <Koopz> WWII here, WWII there, also, did we already talk about WWII?
14:16 <Koopz> things might be different nowadays... it's already been 10 years since i graduated
14:17 <Finwe> The Super Pershing was the first tank with a proper front armour.
14:18 <Finwe> o3o
14:19 * Finwe makes an obscure reference to a comic strip in his local newspaper this summer.
14:20 <Finwe> The history teaching in the comic artist's youth was much like "distant events, WW1, WW2, recent events".
14:22 <Finwe> Being an expert on WW2 was the hobby of almost all of his classmates, and tanks were a hot topic, hence the discussion on Super Pershing (T26E1-1).
14:24 <Koopz> being on LAN-parties for several years, playing Company of Heroes i've really come to like tanks
14:25 <Cepheid> Hum. Vector algebra lesson.
14:25 * Cepheid goes back to coding.
14:25 <Koopz> the newer ones aren't really interesting. Germany's obsession with big badabooms is fascinating
14:26 <Finwe> There's nothing quite like Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausführung B "Tiger II". o3o
14:27 <Koopz> who cares about weird high-velocity-rocket thingies when you can instead spit a massive projectile with ridiculous power at your enemy?
14:27 <Finwe> With turret by Henschel, the original Krupp turret has a substantial flaw in design.
14:28 <Finwe> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_trap#/media/File:Munster_Koenigstiger_Porscheturm_Modell_detail.jpg
14:28 <Koopz> i tell ya. When space traveling becomes a normal thing and there's pirates in space and lasers and deflector shields and whatnot
14:29 <Koopz> i hope those defense measurements can't deal with projectiles and some crazy guy starts ripping ships apart using cannonballs
14:30 <Finwe> Hitting the lower part of the front of the turret results in the shell being deflected directly to the weak deck armour, usually penetrating it and killing the crew.
14:30 <Cepheid> Ye know what's fun? Normal vectors of a cube.
14:32 <Finwe> What's so fun about them?
14:37 <Cepheid> It's... a mildly complex problem to explain with respect to graphics. To start, you're drawing a cube using triangles. So there's 2 triangles per side, six sides, for 12 triangles. These triangles have vertices that define them, 3 each. That's 36 vertices. Using some de-duplication stuff, you can reduce it to 8 vertices, and a set of indices defining the faces. Now then..
14:37 <Cepheid> Normals are supposed to be perpendicular to the face. If you use 36 points, this is easy to do. If you use 8 points, it becomes a problem.
14:38 <Cepheid> The problem here is that normals are per-vertex, not per-face.
14:39 <Cepheid> So your eight vertices have a normal associated with them, but the normal is supposed to be perpendicular to the face of any triangle it's a part of.
14:39 <Cepheid> When you reduce the setup from 36 points to 8 points, each point is now associated with at most, 6 triangles.
14:39 <Cepheid> That single normal vector cannot be perpendicular for all six.
14:41 <Finwe> Those eight points are the vertices of the cube, eeenope?
14:41 <Cepheid> Yes.
14:42 <Cepheid> But in graphics programming, normal vectors are usually assigned per-vertex, not per-face.
14:43 <Cepheid> If I recall correctly, it's just a case of calculating the normal vector of a vector going from each point to their immediately adjacent point, then summing the normal vectors, and normalizing.
14:44 <Cepheid> Which is more or less equivalent to normalizing a vector originating from the center of the cube going to each vertex.
14:45 <Cepheid> Then in the shader, for lighting purposes, there's some funky math done.
14:45 * Cepheid hasn't done 3D in ages.

14:47 <LibrarianofHope_> hi
14:48 <LibrarianofHope_> im in a day off and still feel the effects of this depression like state
14:48 <LibrarianofHope_> because narrative consistency bleh
14:50 <Finwe> Choose a vertex, then you have three faces that meet at that particular vertex, say, A. For each of these three faces, take two more vertices, say B_i and C_i. Then the normal vectors are going to be ±(AB_i x AC_i).
14:51 <Cepheid> Yeah.
14:51 <Cepheid> That's what I figured it'd be for the cube. It's just it feels weird.

17:27 <Cepheid> Okay. Wow. I see this stuff advertisee on my dad's races, and it has only just started being sold here, so I decided to try it. Why would anyone drink Mello Yello? This stuff is worse than sugar water.
17:28 <ADragonDreaming> I think it's Pepsico's answer to Sprite?
17:28 <Cepheid> This is quite literally the most disgusting drink I have ever consumed in my entire life.
17:28 <ADragonDreaming> but yeah, not a fan.
17:28 <Schism> Oh yeah, I think I've had it -- once. Never felt the desire to try it ever again, and I've been known to occasionally guzzle Code Red in the past.
17:28 <Cepheid> And I've drank tequila straight, for comparisons.

17:30 <Cepheid> Sprite meanwhile is sweet, but this... This takes it up to 11. It tastes literally like all they did was mix 1 cup sugar with 2 cups soda water and called it a day.

17:34 <Cepheid> I'm kinda unimpressed with bayview station itself. The layout is fine, just...
17:34 <Cepheid> All the cement is already cracking and falling apart.
17:36 <Cepheid> Clearly, Rogers, Bell and their ilk have installed transmitters in this tunnel. No way I'd be getting LTE at 5 bars like I am.
17:38 <AppleDash> They may also be using leaky coax
17:39 <Cepheid> I assume that acts as a repeating element of some sort?
17:41 <Cepheid> Interestingly, my signal outside the tunnel is worse.
17:41 <Cepheid> Drops to 3-4 bars.

18:14 <Schism> Good consideration, Sam. https://qntm.org/admin
18:15 <Cepheid> Over the winter break I am gonna do another Rabi-Ribi run. Next difficulty up from Hard. Same rules, no items or badges.
18:15 <Schism> Hammer or no?
18:17 <Cepheid> I meant no usable items. So hammer is a go.
18:18 <AppleDash> Yeah. Leaky coax is just coax cable with holes pierced in it so that it "leaks" a signal basically working like an antenna. Usually run in subway tunnels and connected to a repeater somewhere
18:19 <Cepheid> Ah. Works well, then.

18:25 * Schism manages to reverse jump off the walls enough to bypass all the lava floes.
