05:59 <Tirek> Dungeons and Diners and Dragons and Dives
05:59 <Schism> Final Fantasy 14.
06:00 <Schism> The healer of the party did NOT know how to handle mechanics.
06:00 <ConfusionRift> Aaaah.
06:00 <ConfusionRift> Tirek: So that's the medieval version of the show. :P
06:00 <Tirek> Oh, woops, I forgot drive-ins
06:02 <Schism> ConfusionRift: 6 runs. I was almost always the last one to perish. The healer, on the other hand, scrapped the whole thing by running into the furniture we were supposed to set aflame, not managing to avoid the tether properly, and ultimately not knowing how to do Left/Right mechanics when it should be PRETTY CLEAR BY NOW.
06:06 <Schism> (Left/Right is the new favourite boss mechanic of the FFXIV team. The enemy goes to a location, points in a direction, and says 'left swing' or 'right swing'. The direction the ENEMY IS FACING is the way you should face to see their left or their right.)
06:06 <ConfusionRift> Okay, something's up. Be right back.
06:29 <Schism> You okay, 'Rifty?
06:41 <ConfusionRift> And I'm back. No worries. All is fine.
06:41 * ConfusionRift thumbs up... if he had thumbs.
06:42 <ConfusionRift> Schism: So the boss kinda tells you where to face depending on an attack?
06:43 <Schism> Yup.

07:45 <Schism> Oh, the oversaturated version is what we see. For some reason, doing a printscreen on the game strips that away, giving us the first image.
07:49 <Schism> Maybe I'm wrong...
07:50 <Schism> Aw darnit. Whatever, I'll keep going through the MSQ.

15:58 <Cepheid> Well, so much for the fun interesting experience.
15:58 <Cepheid> My parents wanted me to try a tablet of one of my new as-needed pills to figure out what the side effects, if any, would be.

He knows how to specify a camera for 3D graphics purposes, but he's wondering why it has to be specified in this specific way, when, in theory, you can just specify a position and a vector indicating the look-at direction, and an angle value to indicate orientation of the camera view.
16:12 <DashedTheFilly> That's no fun
16:12 <Cepheid> Eh.
16:13 <Cepheid> It may be having no effect due to when I am officially supposed to be taking it.
16:13 <Cepheid> It's a medication to take for when I start feeling an episode coming on, or, after the episode has started.
16:13 <Cepheid> For the sake of just shutting it down.
16:13 <DashedTheFilly> I see
16:14 <Cepheid> It's an anti-anxiety med.
16:14 <DashedTheFilly> Some people get all the fun stuff...
16:15 <Cepheid> You know, I wouldn't call this fun, seeing as it controls what I can't control and results in me severely injurying myself.
16:17 <DashedTheFilly> Not for what it's prescribed. I assume it's a benzo
16:17 <Cepheid> It is.
16:18 <Cepheid> Actually now that I think about it.. *Checks hand*

17:49 <Cepheid> It's fine to specify a look-at setup, wherein you take the camera's position, and specify a point to look at to create a vector, which is your forward vector. But for the camera to work right, one also needs an up and side vector, and only one needs to be specified..
17:50 <Cepheid> But in order to calculate either the up or side vector, you need the other vector.

17:58 <Cepheid> To create one of the two vectors, you need a 90 degree rotation along a given axis. Y axis, if you want to create the "side" vector. X axis, if you want the "up" vector. This is, unfortunately, not a straightforward task.

19:31 <Cepheid> I wonder if the university would let me use one of their microscopes.
19:37 <Cepheid> Hum. How interesting.
19:44 <Cepheid> Apparently, there are ways to get functional Thunderbolt 3 on AMD systems.
19:44 <Schism> !muffin
19:44 <DerpyBot> Braaaaaaaiins...You have any? >:3
19:44 <Schism> maybe.
19:44 * DerpyBot eats Schism's brains...maybe
19:44 <Schism> Huh, interesting indeed.
19:47 <Schism> I have a sneaking suspicion that the lack of power capacity will still keep Thunderbolt from being as ubiquitous as USB.
19:48 <Cepheid> Well, whether it will or not is moot.
19:48 <Cepheid> The next version of USB is just a rebranded Thunderbolt, effectively.
19:49 <Starlight_Glimmer> The confusion will be perfect!
19:49 <Starlight_Glimmer> I've read some of the specs for "USB 4" routers
19:49 <Starlight_Glimmer> Good luck explaining that mess to consumers
19:50 <Cepheid> Which isn't much different from things right now. Anything more basic than "I click the button and it works" is basically a case of "Good luck explaining that mess to consumers."
19:51 <Starlight_Glimmer> Well despite the naming scheme being somewhat of a mess USB 3.x is easy enough
19:51 <Starlight_Glimmer> Symbols for PD, Thunderbolt get the message across
19:51 <Starlight_Glimmer> (If they don't randomly place them incorrectly like on the XPS 13 my emyployer provided)
19:52 * Ali noms on Starlight_Glimmer
19:52 <Cepheid> How is the XPS 13?
19:52 <Starlight_Glimmer> Mixed bag really
19:52 <Cepheid> Which version is it?
19:52 <Starlight_Glimmer> Switched to a 15 which is what I use privately as well
19:53 <Starlight_Glimmer> Would have to look that up, but it's either latest or one before latest generation.
19:53 * Cepheid guhs. He needs a break from this.
19:54 <Starlight_Glimmer> I switched because I need a bigger screen and he excessive amounts of VMs I ran took the cooling to it's limit
19:54 <Starlight_Glimmer> Still not a fan of Dell's EFI implementation, but if you work around the bugs it works I guess
19:54 <Starlight_Glimmer> Build quality on the XPS line is amazing
19:56 * Starlight_Glimmer wonders if they could squeeze a singing voice out of Ali. They're starving for some female vocals.
19:56 * Ali is not a singing mare
19:57 <Cepheid> Any EFI is gonna have bugs, really.
19:57 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'm a huge fan of 13-inch screens. Just right for my eyes.
19:57 <Starlight_Glimmer> I run Linux on my notebooks. When I got my personal XPS 15 it was somewhat of a hassle getting everything to run. This has somewhat improved apart the hybrid graphics stuff which is always going to be a bit painful
19:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> The 13" doesn't have dedicated graphics though so no issues there
19:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> If you need peripherals get used to the dongle life style
19:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> Display port daisy chaining works surprisingly well though if your monitors support it
20:00 <Cepheid> Not really looking for one with dedicated graphics.
20:00 <Cepheid> I'd personally prefer recent Intel iGFX, amazingly./
20:03 <Schism> Nice of Blizzard to announce Diablo 4 as *cough* NOT A MOBILE GAME, but they're going to have to show me a fair bit more before I can kindle more than a spark of interest.
20:04 <Ali> Their lame ass apolgy makes me care less for Blizz
20:04 <Schism> Until they can beat Path of Exile and Grim Dawn, which is going to be rather difficult for them because the writing in those games is still far superior, then I'm going to have to give it a miss.
20:04 <Cepheid> Blizzard has, for the worst, ruined their repuation right now. Not even an apology with donations to a relevant organization will help.
20:05 <Schism> And yes, the PR disaster of them completely flipping their horseapples doesn't help.
20:05 * Starlight_Glimmer silently enjoys the dumpster fire the gaming industry is right now
20:06 <Starlight_Glimmer> That being said: I was really amazed when EA announced they were going to return to Steam
20:06 <Ali> Nobody cares about Origin
20:06 <Schism> Oh, once again, EA screws over a part of their franchise named Origin?
20:06 <Starlight_Glimmer> Not like I care for EA games either, but an unexpected move :P
20:07 <Schism> Everybody knew that when EA first announced Origin that it would be an unmitigated disaster strangled by ever more desperate attempts by corporate.
20:07 <Starlight_Glimmer> To give them credit though: Origins customer support is miles ahead of Valves's
20:07 <Schism> s/knew that when/knew when/
20:08 <Schism> Starlight_Glimmer, well, it'd have to be.
20:08 <Cepheid> It also fares better than EGS, in that the games are not exclusive to that platform.
20:09 <Starlight_Glimmer> Simple stuff like when I couldn't activate my BF2 collection on Origin (because it was purchased way before Origin was a thing) customer support asked me for my key, added it to my account and upgraded it even.
20:09 <Starlight_Glimmer> All of that it a matter of minutes
20:10 <Cepheid> Yeah, I also dealt with Origin support. Apparently I have two Origin accounts, and I installed a game on the wrong one. Explained the situation clearly, they resolved it without issue.
20:11 <Starlight_Glimmer> The encounters I had with Steam support were less fruitful and a lot slower
20:12 <Starlight_Glimmer> I asked them delete an old unused account I hadn't logged into for like 6 years before making the request
20:13 <Starlight_Glimmer> As proof of ownership they wanted me to send over the CS 1.6 key I had activated ages ago on the account xD
20:13 <Starlight_Glimmer> Like I still have that kind of lying around after that many years of physical media irrelevant
20:15 <Starlight_Glimmer> kind of thing* being irrelevant*
20:15 <Starlight_Glimmer> Sometimes I just seem to forget typing some words :(
20:25 * Schism snickers at "Changeling of the Guard".
20:25 <Schism> Starlight_Glimmer, yeah, Steam's CS is... kinda limited there.
20:26 <Starlight_Glimmer> Well considering I can't login to the account anymore I think they did end up agreeing :3
20:27 <Starlight_Glimmer> But yeah transferring games etc. is not going to happen
20:27 <Starlight_Glimmer> I was amazed at how open family sharing was in the beginning
20:28 <Starlight_Glimmer> They ended up limiting that to a certain extent though
20:28 <Starlight_Glimmer> Some things like the screenshot quality still baffle me
20:28 <Starlight_Glimmer> Also Steam's 2FA kinda sucks
20:29 <Starlight_Glimmer> It has the worst of all worlds: Proprietary mechanism that doesn't leverage any of the benefits of that like display the details of the transaction to be confirmed
20:30 <Starlight_Glimmer> Not even sure if it works with multiple accounts on one phone. Just secured my primary account
20:31 <ADragonDreaming> oh look. hail.
20:31 * Ali hails ADragonDreaming
20:33 <Schism> Ohey, new chapter of Changeling of the Guard. *devours*
20:34 * Starlight_Glimmer wonders if they can make Schism turn into spaghetti ice cream by concentrating really hard. They'd like that ;)
20:35 * Schism provides Starlight_Glimmer with a bowl of neopolitan spaghetti ice cream.
20:38 * Starlight_Glimmer licks both the ice cream and Schism in equal amounts
20:39 * Schism drips.

21:15 <Schism> "Pinkie Pie. I have an important mission for you." "Righto!" "It's something which will test you to the limits of your capacity." "Great!" "It's an act of unbridled chaos, completely unnatural to you." "Easy!" "I need you to sit completely still for a grand total of 30 seconds." "..."
21:16 * Schism checks after 15 seconds, pushes over a cardboard cutout. Sighs.
21:18 <Starlight_Glimmer> Are we 100% sure Twili didn't nuke the real Pinkie? Might be still dealing with a clone.
21:18 <ADragonDreaming> erg. It hurts to laugh.
21:18 <Schism> Pretty sure that if she nuked the real Pinkie, the result would've been a ginormous explosion.
21:19 <Schism> You okay, Adra?
21:20 <Starlight_Glimmer> https://derpibooru.org/2185709
21:21 <Schism> That's kinda cute.
21:21 <Starlight_Glimmer> It contains horses. Of course it's cute.
21:26 * PinkieShy pokes Starlight with a candycane.
21:27 <Schism> NO.
21:27 <Schism> No Christmas stuff yet. NOT NOW. Not for another 3 weeks.
21:27 * Schism does provide PinkieShy with some iced peppermint shortbreads.
21:29 <PinkieShy> Schism if you would ever head my way You'd think it already is christmas with the ammount of christmas stuff up in people yards and such..
21:29 <PinkieShy> Even over heard the neighbors talking about putting their tree up in a few days.
21:30 <Schism> It's THE SECOND OF NOVEMBER. No! Absolutely not! Gods alive, what's wrong with people?!
21:30 <Schism> I don't care if fall/winter actually started yesterday, judging by the weather, this is too much!
21:30 <ADragonDreaming> Schism: sick.
21:30 <ADragonDreaming> cold etc.
21:30 * Schism hugs Adra, provides chicken noodle soup. With extra sriracha.
21:30 <Schism> A good spicy soup will, as they say, scare the illness right outta ya.
21:31 <Ali> Schism, how much do you know about standard magic right now?
21:31 <Schism> Literally nothing, I'm afraid.
21:31 <Schism> I don't even know if you're still using lands for mana.
21:31 <Ali> I'm trying to make a Dimir deck that says *yay* Oko
21:31 <Schism> Be nice to pull that off. Is it viable?
21:31 <ADragonDreaming> I prefer my chicken noodle without spiciness, but I have had a couple of those big container of hot and spicy soup from my local chinese place.
21:32 <Ali> Schism, you know the card Sorcerous Spyglass correct?
21:32 <Schism> Ooh, hot and sour soup.
21:32 <ADragonDreaming> yeah, that
21:32 <PinkieShy> hmm
21:32 <ADragonDreaming> Isn't Oko like, stupid OP?
21:32 * PinkieShy poofs into Santa Claus
21:32 <Ali> Yes, but nobody is coming up with ways to muck with him
21:32 <PinkieShy> It is I! Santa PinkieShy! :D
21:32 <Ali> I have plans
21:32 <Schism> Oh wait. Oko the Trickster.
21:32 <Ali> No, Oko, Thief of Crowns
21:33 * PinkieShy hands Ali some candy canes and a few bales of hay
21:33 <ADragonDreaming> planeswalker with +1 ability that turns basically any creature into a 3/3 elk with nor abilities.
21:33 <ADragonDreaming> *no
21:33 <Ali> And a +2 for a food token
21:33 <Schism> That's... and it's not until end of turn.
21:33 <Schism> Gods.
21:33 <ADragonDreaming> correct.
21:33 <Ali> Its permanant Schism
21:33 <Ali> Have a 7/7? WHO CARES, its a 3/3
21:34 <ADragonDreaming> also mucks up commander.
21:34 <Schism> And that's his +1 loyalty ability. What the hell?
21:34 <Ali> Eeyup
21:34 <Ali> Anyway
21:34 <Schism> And his casting cost is 1GU?!
21:34 <Ali> You know Sorcerous Spyglass correct?
21:34 <Schism> Yup.
21:34 <Schism> I can see how that could be useful in this case.
21:34 <Ali> It bascially turns off Oko
21:34 <Schism> So long as it's in the target player's hand.
21:34 <Ali> And since its a 2 mana artifact, it can be in anything
21:34 <Ali> And no
21:34 <Ali> Spyglass doesn't need to name a card in hand
21:35 <Schism> Ohhhhhhh.
21:35 <Schism> Oh, that's nice.
21:35 <Ali> Its look at their hand, THEN name any card name
21:35 <Ali> Name Oko, Thief of Crowns
21:35 <Ali> And watch as they can't do *yay* anymore with him
21:35 <Ali> ALSO
21:35 <Ali> You remember Unmoored Ego?
21:35 <Schism> So the question then becomes, can you get it out, and how do you prevent it getting shattered.
21:35 <ADragonDreaming> until they remove the artifact.
21:35 <Ali> You run 3 copies
21:35 <Ali> And artifact removal isn't that common
21:36 <Ali> And I'm in Blue/Black
21:36 <Ali> I'll have counterspells
21:36 * PinkieShy licks Ali
21:36 <Schism> I can see how Unmoored Ego is useful there, yeah.
21:36 * Ali squeaks at PinkieShy
21:36 <PinkieShy> yay squeaks yay
21:36 <Ali> Name Oko or Questing Beast
21:36 <Ali> And watch their entire deck fall apart
21:36 <Ali> You also run Thought Erasures
21:36 <Ali> Just in case there is one or the other in their hand
21:37 * Starlight_Glimmer applies Spekulatius to Schism
21:37 <Ali> AND
21:37 <Ali> Thief of Sanity
21:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> Also christmas stuff is in stores for like a month or more already
21:38 <Ali> And your finishers are Doom Whisperer and Lochmere Serpent
21:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> It actually annoys me as well
21:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> Gotta sell in the most profitable season
21:38 <Ali> And you run 4 Fae of Wishes
21:38 <ADragonDreaming> My strategy is to straight ignore any an all Commercial Christmas stuff until December.
21:38 <Ali> So you can have a 4th spyglass in the sideboard
21:39 <Ali> The thing is I have no one drops in a plan right now
21:40 <Starlight_Glimmer> I won't be in the country for christmas and new years, instead I will enjoy a swimming pool and lazily sunbathing.
21:41 <Starlight_Glimmer> The later of course only to curse at the sun, because moon > sun.

22:50 <PinkieShy> I just turned into a Hot pepper and made a few puns about the game host of werewolf saying I went to a party..
22:50 <PinkieShy> I told the bodyguard that I went to a party with Tomato, Lettuce, Cheddar and taco.
22:50 <PinkieShy> of course sour cream was there.
22:51 <Schism> We played Werewolf iRL a few days ago. It was hilarious, I managed a poker face and voted to kill off my fellow were, then almost won the game on my lonesome.
22:51 <PinkieShy> Only time i ever won as lonewolf was a few months ago..
22:52 <Schism> Everyone's excuses were so flimsy. X3
22:52 <PinkieShy> I trick everyone into thinking i was the seer.. Then at the last minute the seer died.. Making me and 1 more person the last.. So.. I won :P
22:52 <Schism> Nice. :3
22:54 <Schism> Lumindia!
22:54 <Lumindia> wau
22:54 <Schism> Lumindia, how do you feel about porxie fantasy 14?
22:54 <Lumindia> ??
22:54 <Schism> New content. You should play, it's good.
22:54 <Schism> I won't spoil any more about it.
22:55 <Schism> EXCEPT that the mechanics in the latest MSQ dungeon's final boss killed us about six times until we recycled the healer.
22:58 <Schism> Healer died in about 10 seconds, the rest of us just kept going because how the hell else are we going to learn the mechs?
23:00 <Schism> Lumindia, maybe you can answer this for me. AT THIS STAGE how is it at ALL possible that anyone doesn't know how to handle L/R mechanics?
23:00 <Lumindia> oh yeah, discount ragnaros?
23:00 <Lumindia> fun times
23:01 <Lumindia> I see that mechanic and I'm like PLEASE DEAR GODS NO
23:01 * Schism narrows eyes. "What class are you."
23:01 <Lumindia> first time was RDM with trusts, now I run it as healer
23:02 <Lumindia> .. actually no, first time was healer, I remember now
23:02 <Lumindia> best boi was tank
23:02 <Schism> Oh. Then your 'please dear gods no' is more like 'please let nobody run into the OBVIOUS HALF OF DEATH.
23:02 <Lumindia> also PTSD from Omega
23:02 <Lumindia> >.>
23:02 <Schism> Well, that too, yes.
23:02 <Schism> And the S-rank over in Kholusia.
23:02 <Lumindia> At least this boss just flat out says 'left/right'
23:03 * Lumindia mutters something about antiquated nautical terms
23:03 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) #3148 [ http://tinyurl.com/yyby38zb ]
23:03 * Schism grins, and puts a sushi boat on Lumindia's head.
23:03 <Lumindia> also in fairness to those people, this boss will spin and face a random direction, THEN do the l/r mechanic
23:03 <Lumindia> so not only do you have to figure out which side is safe, you have to figure out which way he's pointint
23:03 <Schism> Yeah, but it always points towards a party member, and for most of this fight, the party should stack.
23:03 <Lumindia> and if you're at range, well...
23:03 <Lumindia> I mean that's not always the case
23:04 <Schism> Okay, okay. But it's always enough that a normal party member can get there without sprinting.
23:04 <Schism> Unless someone's on the ridiculously far side of things.
23:05 <Schism> Did it take your fellow party members long to grok the tethered rush?
23:05 <Schism> (Wow. That sentence sounds absurd out of context.)
23:05 <Lumindia> kek
23:06 <Lumindia> some tunnel and don't notice it
23:06 <Schism> Oh, no...
23:08 <Schism> It's always a laugh when a party member manages to take down two chandeliers and a curtain.
23:08 <Schism> With that damned X fire.
23:08 <Schism> (Not that I've done just that once.)
23:10 <Schism> In the fight where we won, I retreated to a corner, and then realized, 'oh crap, there's a drape here.' BARELY managed to get away in time.
23:11 <Schism> Hey. Here's a thing. Hey Lumindia! LEFT HAIRCUT!
23:11 * Schism attempts to swing his hair at Lumindia, but it extends maybe 6 inches.
23:15 <Schism> "That's the muse of passion. Avoid her flames."
