00:03 * Jackie gives PrincessRainbows a banana

00:04 <Schism> Yes.

00:04 <Schism> Rathian is a paaaaain

00:05 <Heartbreak> Heeeeee, I talked to the artist directly about that cameo? And they said "mhmm, along with a couple of others that didn't appear elsewhere. I figured you'd seen it already seen it."

00:05 <Heartbreak> Schism!!!

00:05 <Schism> Sure, Rathian.  Swoop down and eat the Pukei-Pukei I was hunting.  >_<

00:05 <Heartbreak> Schism!!!!

00:05 <Heartbreak> The Cameo Is -Real-!!

00:06 * PrincessRainbows noms and licks Heartbreak a lot

00:07 <PinkieShy> heh..

00:07 <PinkieShy> Me: Hey google are you waterproof? Google Home: "Let's not find out!"

00:07 <Schism> Okay.  Okay.  Rathian, Anjanaju, and Pukei-Pukei in the same zone.  Me: NOPE.

00:08 <Schism> Also, nice, HB.  :3

00:10 <PinkieShy> I started to watch some MLP on netflix last night..

00:11 <PinkieShy> Some reason.. The ep where sweetiebelle was mad at rarity and ruined that outfit she made, and luna came to visit her in her nightmares.. That just made me laugh very much :P

00:13 <Cepheid> Schism, time to learn about dung and dung bombs.

00:14 <Cepheid> Throw the bombs at monsters and they will eventually run away.

00:14 <Schism> I'm sure, but right then, all I wanted to do was get the crud out of there.  XD;  It was an expedition anyway, rather than a quest.

00:14 <Schism> Lessee... Field Research: Entomology.  I'm pretty sure I can go about capturing five Omenflies.

00:16 <Schism> Also, I used up a bunch of antidotes.  Blasted poison breath.

00:16 <Cepheid> Yeeeeep.

00:17 <Cepheid> That's where charms, armorskills and gems come into play.

00:18 <Schism> Aye.  I should start heading to the forge, now that I have a fairly decent number of materials.

00:20 <Schism> Decent amount of honey...

00:20 * Schism puts some nulberries into the ecological research center.

00:20 <Cepheid> Make copious use of the wishlist.  It was expanded recently.

00:21 <Schism> Wait, how have I no nulberries?

00:29 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/t_ippers/status/1216868664139571200?s=19

00:38 <Jackie> Assembly in a nutshell: You have access to any hardware but you have the risk of destroying it as well unless you have an emulator!

00:38 <Cepheid> The probability of events in that video are beyond astronomical.  1-in-10 or so for the rough landing.  Incalculable for the position of the vespoid.  Probably like, 1-in-w chance of vespoid attack.  Followed by probably 1-in-10 for jhos dragon breath.

00:39 <Cepheid> Assembly cannot be used to destroy hardware.  Unless you exploit a known bug in the hardware.  Which can be done in any language.

00:44 <Jackie> Cepheid, aka virus

00:56 <Schism> Okies.  Anjanath down.

00:56 <Lumindia_> If Canada launched a space shuttle, what would it be called?

00:56 <Lumindia_> Apollo G

00:56 <Schism> That was a fun hunt, except for when I used up all my nullberries because I was ON FIRE.

00:59 <Cepheid> Schism?

00:59 <Cepheid> Whats the method for putting yourself out in the real world?

00:59 <Schism> I know, there are better options.

00:59 <Schism> Stop, drop, and roll.  ._.

00:59 <Cepheid> Yes.

01:00 <Schism> Do forgive me for running out of stamina.

01:00 <Cepheid> Roll 2 or 3 times, or into water.

01:01 <Schism> Thankfully, now I know where Anjanath's nest is.  So that'll make future hunts... a bit easier.

01:01 * Schism also needs to learn to mount.

01:02 <Schism> I guess I should head to Astera and load up on Trap Tools.

01:03 <PinkieShy> I wish it was colder :(

01:03 <PinkieShy> It was like 75F here today and been this way for almost a week now..

01:04 * Cepheid sends a Rathian to pester Schism

01:04 <PrincessRainbows> Odd cause north

01:05 <Schism> Interrupting Rathian.  :<

01:05 <PinkieShy> I was told by a Canadian the temperature i am seeing here in south carolina is what they usually see in their summer

01:05 <Schism> Yup.

01:06 <Schism> Hmm, First Wyverian Prints.

01:09 <Schism> Oh, the Melding Pot is for later.

01:09 <PrincessRainbows> It's less than 60F here and I'm south of you,  but remember0 kids, climate change isn't real

01:12 <Schism> Naturally, the really good fire-resistant gear requires I kill a lot more Anjanaths.

01:12 <PrincessRainbows> Like it snowed a few days ago, in Texas

01:16 <Cepheid> Yep, Schism.  Recursive problems ahoy.  Defeating Vaal Hazak requires effluvial protection.  Which you get from Vaal Hazak gear.

01:17 <Finwe> o3o

01:18 <Schism> Hmm.  Madness Pangas are a lot less powerful than the Defender slicers.  But they have a water element, which is probably going to be pretty vital if I want to hunt Anjanath on a frequent basis.

01:18 * Schism is -kinda- guessing that elemental affinities are just a little bit important.

01:20 <Cepheid> They are, yeah.  Note, weapons with element damage in parentheses require the Awakening skill to use the element.

01:21 * Schism contemplates just buying all the armour sets for his kitty.

01:22 <Schism> Eh.  I've got Fire resist going now with the Bone set, I can hold off for now.  Still need to actually do that Anjanath quest to unlock the camp.

01:24 <Schism> Oh.  Camp unlocked.  FIIIINE.

01:25 * Schism turns in those two Anjanath Pelts. :<

01:27 <Schism> Cephy: Can a trap be placed while the monster is sleeping in its nest, or does it have to be beforehand?

01:28 * Finwe hats on PinkieShy.

01:28 <Cepheid> Can be placed when it is sleeping, yes.

01:29 * PinkieShy hugs Finwe

01:29 * Finwe snuggles a PinkieShy.

01:29 <Cepheid> Even triggers the trap.  Usually the best way to trap and capture.  Though the devs made it harder to do with that last patch.

01:31 * PrincessRainbows sniffs the Finwe. Hmm fancy horse

02:12 <Tirek> Are you trying to summon Tingle

02:14 <Schism> Nah, huntin' mons.

02:15 <Schism> Cepheid's cat decided to tag along.

04:05 <PinkieShy> I almost got the santa rank thingy in cookie clicker XD

04:05 <Schism> Now if only it didn't beat me into the ground.  o3o;

04:05 <PinkieShy> When i get that.. the speed of harvesting the cookies will probably be insane.. since i have the upgrades that require it.

04:08 <Schism> Lessee.  Great Ravine... time to capture a Great Dragon.

04:09 <Schism> Surely this won't go wrong at ALL.

04:30 * Schism mutters imprecations about Nergigante.

04:38 * PrincessRainbows flops on Ali because tired horse

04:38 * Ali brushies PrincessRainbows more

04:40 * PinkieShy offers Ali a dozen cookies

04:43 * PrincessRainbows licks Ali a bit

04:45 * PinkieShy licks PrincessRainbows

04:47 * PrincessRainbows still tastes like a tiny magical horse

04:49 <Schism> Yaaaaay, Barroth level up.

04:50 <Schism> Lessee.  Primarily, when fighting a Rathian... gotta slice off its tail.

05:04 <Finwe> Good morning, everypony.

06:36 * Ali thinks Schism is lying

06:46 <Schism> Lessee.  Kill a few vespoids, game?  Well, alright.

06:58 <Schism> Bleh, that took longer than it should have.

07:02 <Schism> Herbivore eggs... well, that should be simple.

07:04 <Schism> Of course, simple is not the same as EASY -- the herd seem to be guarding these eggs with their lives.  o3o;

08:41 <ConfusionRift> ...guessing you're also back to MHW? :P

08:41 <Schism> Yus.  :P

08:42 <Schism> Well, I hadn't really been playing it much before.

08:42 <Schism> And only just got it last month.

08:42 <ConfusionRift> Ooooh. I thought you had it too.

08:42 <Schism> Nope!

08:42 <Schism> Hmm.  Need a Tzitzi-Ya-Ku hide.  Bleh.

08:44 <ConfusionRift> Try to roll to its side or behind it.

08:45 <Schism> I know.  And don't bother with Flash Pods.  :P

08:45 <ConfusionRift> And if you can smash its head as much as you can, go for it. You want the flashbanging to stop.

08:46 * Schism noddles. "I'm dual-sword, so."

08:47 <ConfusionRift> Yep, that would be trivial. :P

08:47 <Schism> I don't much -want- to hunt Tzitzi-Ya-Ku, though.  It's cute, and it's more helpful in hunting other mobs.  :S

08:48 * ConfusionRift shrugs. "You know what hunters do. If it lives, it dies."

08:48 <ConfusionRift> Or you die. One of those two.

08:49 <Schism> Well, yes.

09:11 * Schism considers. "Harvest box size increase, or coral highlands camp #2?"

09:13 <Schism> Oh, and the Piscene Researcher wants my attention.  Yay.

09:13 <ConfusionRift> More campsites gives you more shortcuts. The harvest box is more for other herbs and such, which I think you can gather bunches on free mode.

09:16 <ConfusionRift> Good thing is that you can harvest now some of the more rarer and harder to find ones. Require more points, but at least there's that.

11:48 <ConfusionRift> This is super annoying though.

11:50 <ConfusionRift> You can change the keyboard layout to International, giving you shortcuts to accents. One problem. On chat, it's either normal shortcuts are accentuated, or no-go.

12:41 <Schism> I shall doubtless dream about carving off Rathalos' tail.

12:42 <Schism> Also, not sure if I want to replace the Vigorwasp with anything.  o3o;

12:43 <ConfusionRift> I kinda also gave it a lot of use. To the point it now restores a considerable chunk of health.

12:44 <Schism> Indeed.

12:45 <Schism> And to where it can be laid down intentionally.

12:45 <ConfusionRift> Other tools will become useful as well, but I think they're more circumstantial.

12:48 <Schism> Well, the shield turns the palico into a tank, which makes items easier to use.

12:52 <ConfusionRift> The flash cage is mostly useful for monster that are affected by flash bombs, the orchestra will give you some nice buffs albeit random, the plunderblade is good only if you're looking for specific monster parts, and the bombs work... sometimes. They're pretty precise.

12:53 <Schism> Useful for saving an item slot or two.

12:54 * ConfusionRift nods.

12:54 <ConfusionRift> Can't rely on them 100%. If the palico is out, you're kinda boned if you need healing or run out of buffs.

13:06 <ConfusionRift> The SGB guys are going to do their own thing, so this year's gonna be their last run together.

13:08 <ConfusionRift> It seems this year has been that turn point for a lot of people. Some have left, others have moved to something completely different, and others just had to change due to some really tough timing and decisions.

13:08 <ConfusionRift> It sucks really.

13:28 <uni> I think it is completely understandable though

13:29 <uni> youtube as a platform does not seem to value the content creators

13:30 <ConfusionRift> Well, it's not them abandoning YouTube. It's more of them moving to do their own things on their own. Basically a disband. Not a bad thing for them. It's just kinda sad.

19:25 <Cepheid> FreeType supports the ability to set font pixel sizes.  Fine and dandy.

19:25 <Cepheid> Go to specify a pixel size of 26 pixels.

19:25 <Cepheid> It returns a font with size 27.

19:26 <Cepheid> I know *WHY*, but like... couldn't they have done the math themselves and figure out what they need to get the exact dimensions specified?

19:36 <Cepheid> Hot damn.

20:25 <Schism> Also already got the first three Grimalkyn tribes, once I figured out how to actually use the scoutflies to snap my neck around to where I'm supposed to be looking.

20:29 <Cepheid> Heh, they no longer actually do that.

20:29 <Schism> Well, not by default, but they will if you select the target at the bottom left of the map.

20:29 <Cepheid> There's that, yeah.

20:30 <Cepheid> You can actually disable that feature altogether, though.

20:30 <Schism> I don't mind it that much, though I might do so in the future once I get more used to things.

20:30 <Cepheid> Fair enough.

20:34 * Schism makes up a goodly number of boneless buffalo wings. Adds ranch dressing.

20:36 * Ali filly eyes at Schism

20:36 * Schism offers Ali some regular boneless chicken wings, with a honey dipping sauce, because the Ali doesn't do spicy.

20:37 * Ali liks honey BBQ

20:37 * Schism adds some barbecue sauce then.

20:37 * Ali forgot the e

20:37 * Ali blames the bats, they steal all the eeeee's

20:37 <Schism> Hm, FFVII remake delayed until April.  This is fine.

20:37 <Schism> They steal all the honey-mango dipping sauce, too.

20:37 <Ali> Schism, is it a joke now that FF7 is the next Half Life 3

20:39 <Schism> Nah, because unlike with Half-Life 3, Square-Enix -is- clearly working on it.  And they've been burned before by low quality control, so they want to make sure that this one's worth the wait.

20:40 <Ali> Endless delays and pushbacks and then end up releasing a shite product will garner them with Mighty No 9 in terms of crap

20:41 <Schism> Aye, but we don't know how it is yet.  I have hopes.

20:41 <LibrarianofHope> should be the simpliest thing ever

20:42 <LibrarianofHope> use the lastest engine to remake a universally beloved game

20:42 <Ali> And then screw it royally with low quality control

20:42 <Schism> Gameplay-wise it's a very different beast, as it should be -- FFVII was rather clunky, mechanics-wise, as nice as it was.

20:43 <Ali> Wasn't 7 the first to abandon the Nintendo platform?

20:43 <LibrarianofHope> yeah

20:43 * MaredoggieRainbows chews on Ali's hooves

20:43 <Cepheid> The reality is that it's becoming apparent to companies that the timelines they set for development aren't realistic.

20:43 * Ali chews on MaredoggieRainbows tail.

20:43 <Cepheid> Unfortunately, marketing still doesn't get the message.

20:43 <Cepheid> They still offer the games at a date far earlier than is even remotely reasonable.

20:43 <LibrarianofHope> it came out on ps1 to make use of the new systems

20:43 <Ali> Like Fallout 76~

20:44 <Ali> Its a year old and its still in beta~

20:44 <LibrarianofHope> it was a technical marvel in those days

20:44 * MaredoggieRainbows poneshrugs and carries on

20:45 <Cepheid> I honestly just hope that the right people are being blamed for the delays.

20:45 <Schism> Ali.  :<  It just works.

20:45 <Cepheid> That is, the people in marketing.

20:45 <LibrarianofHope> keep calm and call ali cute

20:45 <Ali> Yes I know Schism

20:45 <Cepheid> For offering the product sooner than it should be offered.

20:45 <Cepheid> ... Hey, when did Atma do a remix of M.R.?

20:45 <Cepheid> Ah, back in 2017.

20:45 <MaredoggieRainbows> Ali is cutest horse after all

20:45 * Ali ish not cute, cute ponies aren't lonely.

20:47 * Cepheid puts on Rabi-Ribi - M.R., codes.

20:47 <Schism> Gasp of shock.  McDonald's, Popeye's, Chik-Fil-A, et cetera are using MSG in their menus.  ... of course, MSG is demonized, and there's no actual -link- between it and health issues, other than 'maybe you shouldn't eat so much salt'.

20:48 <MaredoggieRainbows> :(

20:48 <LibrarianofHope> salt for days

20:48 <LibrarianofHope> if im not crystallized its not salty enough

20:54 * Cepheid thinks he'll start his Rabi-Ribi run tonight.

20:54 <Cepheid> Think I'll also record it start to finish, and upload it to youtube.

20:58 <Cepheid> Also need to go about going through La-Mulana again, to see if I can achieve <10 hour completion time.  ALso to refresh my memory so I can go along with Schism's plan to one day do a randomizer run.

20:58 <Cepheid> Or rather, randomizer race.

20:59 <Schism> Oh, there's no doubt that you can get it in under 10 hours.

20:59 <Cepheid> Yeah, but I would need to do a run or two normally, first.

20:59 <Cepheid> It's been over a year since I properly finished it.

21:00 <Cepheid> My memory for metroidvanias is good, but not that good.

21:00 * Schism nodnods. "Gotta remember where all the chests are, too."

21:00 <Cepheid> I got the layout of the world memorized, but not the locations of items.

21:00 <Cepheid> Except for certain items which were a ***** to find.

21:00 <Schism> Some of the easy ones to miss: the coin chest above the waterfall, the hidden one in the Spring in the Sky, that one inside a wall in the Twin Labyrinths.

21:01 <Schism> Oh, and the coin chest in the Endless Corridor, to the left of where the race starts.

21:01 <Cepheid> Truth told, I should probably not code today and work on a game.  I overslept a lot from yesterday.

21:01 <Cepheid> I was out by 5:30 PM, I woke up at 2 PM today.

21:02 * Schism looks up. "Up and down a lot?"

21:02 <Cepheid> Hmm?

21:02 <Schism> Oh, you were about until 8:30ish.

21:03 <Cepheid> Really?

21:03 <Cepheid> I must have been up and down a few times.

21:03 <Cepheid> I just recall falling asleep at around 5:30 or so.  Can't recall anything after that.

21:03 <Schism> Mmm.  You joined me on the game and we swapped guild cards.

21:04 <Cepheid> .. That I remember, I just didn't realize it was at 8:30?

21:04 <Cepheid> Man, my times are all messed up.  In any case, I still overslept.

21:04 <Cepheid> And I'm feeling it, too.

21:09 <Schism> Or the effects of oversleep?

21:12 <Cepheid> Oversleep.

21:12 <Cepheid> I had this sensation since waking up.  Maybe a shower might help?

21:12 <Schism> I also suggest some spiced tomato juice over ice.

21:13 <Cepheid> As for why I overslept, it's because of my episode yesterday.  The Ativan I take is a sedative, and also interacts with my Seroquel.

21:13 <Cepheid> In the form of "You're sleeping for a long time."

21:17 <Cepheid> Hum, so what was the most recent patch notes for Rabi-Ribi..?

21:17 <Cepheid> Ah, still May 11th.

21:17 <Cepheid> So 1.99t

21:17 <Cepheid> Wonder how Gema's next game is coming along.

21:19 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/GemaYue/status/1039900756646621185 Aaand interesting.  This appears to be the main character?

21:28 * Cepheid finishes up with his font generator. Generates a simple ASCII font.

21:51 * Schism eats a bit too much food.

21:52 <Cepheid> You know, I understand the purpose of encapsulation, and why it exists.

21:52 <Cepheid> But there's one thing about it that I never fully understood the reasoning behind.

21:54 <Cepheid> Encapsulation, in the simplest of terms, is wrapping all the data of a given object behind an interface, such that you cannot modify the data without first going through some sort of special interface.

21:54 <Cepheid> Oftentimes, this requires something called the "Getter/Setter Design Pattern", wherein to access and/or modify values, you use something called a getter method or a setter method to access/change the data.

21:54 <Cepheid> Which is all fine and dandy.

21:55 <Cepheid> Except in many cases, your getter/setter methods are going to be a literal case of "return this value" "set this value" and nothing else.

21:56 <Cepheid> Which leads to the question:  Why bother for such data?  Might as well just make it a public data variable that can be assigned to willy-nilly.  If you aren't doing anything to the data, such as error checking, or mathematics or something else, the getter/setter design pattern is overkill, even if the compiler will just optimize the access.

21:57 <Schism> Not sure.  Keeping up good practices in general so you don't overlook it when it is necessary?

21:58 <Cepheid> Perhaps.

21:58 <Cepheid> ... Very well, I'll adhere to it.

21:58 <Cepheid> Seems extraneous, though.

21:59 * Cepheid moves downstairs to get out of room for a bit.

22:02 <Schism> Oh man, an astronomer found and observed the energy of a star from 10 days after it went supernova.  Like, that's about as close as we can get to seeing it happen in real time.
