07:38 <Jackie> Was there ever ways to make a living for dropouts?
07:39 <PinkieShy> Look at Bill. He was a dropout and he is the richest person in the world.
07:39 <ConfusionRift> Huh. We're back to this one.
07:40 * PinkieShy licks ConfusionRift a bit till they dripping
07:40 * ConfusionRift patpats silly PinkieShy. :P
07:43 <ConfusionRift> You can make your own business, pursuit a solo clientele, use skills as a freelancer, YouTu- (coughs) sorry, got something on my throat. Jump into/with sole proprietary businesses, do small bits and ends on the 'net, etc. etc. etc.
07:43 <Jackie> I don't want to waste 10 years on coll
07:43 <Jackie> just to fail at the end
07:44 <ConfusionRift> coll? Oh, college.
07:44 <ConfusionRift> ...10 years?! Are you trying to go for a doctorates?
07:45 <Jackie> That's how it works here if you wanna be a programmer
07:46 <PinkieShy> Way off topic but earlier tonight when i was at Walmart.. I saw they now have one of them driverless floor cleaners..
07:46 <Jackie> I wish college can be done the same as a normal school
07:46 <ConfusionRift> Thaaaat... hmmmmm... that makes no sense.
07:46 <Jackie> 1-2 years is valid
07:46 <PinkieShy> It still had a place for a driver but it was driving itself all over the store avoiding people, and going around things
07:46 <Jackie> But 3+ is f****** a lot to waste on
07:47 <Jackie> I mean, I see some courses being done for a year or 2
07:47 <ConfusionRift> PinkieShy: It's a recent thing. They want maintenance to concentrate on cleanup duties. The scrubber has been known as one of the bigger time burners, on top of having to train others on how to use it. It breaks down rather often as well.
07:48 <ConfusionRift> During the day, you should see a Bossanova bot moving around the aisles.

07:48 <ConfusionRift> Moreso in the morning.
07:49 <Jackie> Anyway
07:49 <ConfusionRift> Bachelors are still valid, and they take usually about 4 years.
07:49 <Jackie> Why do colleges on countries seem to be better than US?
07:50 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
07:50 <Jackie> And some are cheap as hell
07:50 * ConfusionRift shrugs again.
07:50 <Jackie> I'm attending on a college that is inexpensive but high standards
07:51 <Jackie> So how is that?
07:51 <Jackie> Tuition on the US is really like... $75,000 which is wtf for me
07:52 <Jackie> That's like a million pesos here
07:55 <ConfusionRift> Eeerm... one and a half mill.
07:57 <ConfusionRift> In any case, I dunno. Already went through the ringer, got my stupid diploma, can't use it because people keep changing their requirements, gave up and jumped to Walmart, have to pay about 65000 on the student loan for it, and the company is soon gonna start a purge. Life is interesting.
07:58 <ConfusionRift> A multi-billion dollar corporation, and they can't fix the stupid skylights.
08:00 <ConfusionRift> But they can afford new app and software development, a scanner bot, a scrubbing bot, and new "recycled plastic" vests.

09:49 <ConfusionRift> Now, let us see if this fixes the problem.
09:51 * PrincessRainbows yawns and looks at ConfusionRift with teary eyes
09:51 <ConfusionRift> Nope! It didn't.
09:54 * PrincessRainbows flops to bed again and curls up with her plushie and pacifier
10:09 <Schism> ConfusionRift: I learned yesterday that landmines dropped by enemies like Bageljuice can be remotely detonated (and will asplode in a chain) if you hit them with the Clutch Claw, or any slinger ammo.
10:09 * ConfusionRift nods.
10:09 <ConfusionRift> But they don't do much to Beetlejuce. :P
10:10 <Schism> Well, no. It would be nice.
10:12 <Schism> Hum. There go a bunch of Armor Spheres. Just learned I can upgrade the Guardian set more now.
10:13 <Schism> I know it's not the be-all-and-end-all, but it's so convenient.
10:14 <ConfusionRift> Okay, here's the problem. I finally got the DP cable for the new monitor. After installing it, I have had this issue with the monitors not waking up at the same time once they fall on standby, changing the primary display to the monitor that wakes first (the other on HDMI). Everything I have tried does not fix this.
10:15 <Schism> Does turning off the secondary monitor when the machine is in hiberation do aynthing?
10:16 <Schism> anything*
10:18 <ConfusionRift> It's not in hibernation, it's on standby. Meaning I have the system setup to turn off displays after some time.
10:18 <Schism> Ah, sleep mode. Hm.
10:20 <Schism> Okay, try heading into the device manager, selecting Show Hidden Devices, and removing all of the greyed-out ones.
10:20 <ConfusionRift> Already done.
10:21 <ConfusionRift> I think it's the monitor.
10:21 <ConfusionRift> I shut off the new monitor completely on sleep mode, and try waking the other. The system thinks the other monitor doesn't exist, till I turn it back on.
10:22 <ConfusionRift> The non-existing monitor being the one I shut off.
10:22 <Schism> Ergh. Does sound like it...
10:23 <ConfusionRift> But it makes no sense! When they were both under HDMI, this didn't happen. I changed the cable, and then it started this... let me check something.
10:27 <ConfusionRift> Nope, still does it.
10:27 <Schism> Tabs & Co. did a wonderful job on that safari...
10:27 * ConfusionRift gives up. "This sort of garbage always happens. There's no point."
10:28 <Schism> I'd argue, but... that's just how I feel sometimes. Augh.
10:29 <ConfusionRift> I tried putting both on DP, nope. I tried removing old configs, still happens. I tried keeping even refresh rates, still there. I tried doing a full clean install of nVidia drivers, did nothing.
10:30 <Schism> Definitely the minotaur, then.
10:30 <ConfusionRift> Someone suggested for me to put the slower monitor on the onboard, but that requires me to mess with the motherboard BIOS.
10:30 <ConfusionRift> And that is if I can.
10:31 <Schism> I know it feels weird to mess with the BIOS, but they're a much different monster from the old days.
10:32 <ConfusionRift> I know. It's still annoying since that option is probably buried under 10 other options.
10:32 <Schism> True.
10:32 * Schism blinks. "Ohey, free drink at the canteen. Well, drink type."
10:33 * ConfusionRift grabs the controller. "Hunting time!"
10:33 <Schism> Endemic Life Researchers want me to capture the tinymobs in each zone and relay them...

10:36 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, second push after the ravine.
10:39 <Schism> It's a tricky one.

11:43 <Schism> Well, I'll give you a leg up. Whatcha need to do?
11:43 <ConfusionRift> Pink Rathian tracking...
11:43 <ConfusionRift> So maybe some optionals... which there are only two.
11:44 <Schism> Oh, yech. Okay. That one's not so bad. Check your map, see if there are any ! quests?
11:46 <Schism> Many of the Arena quests are only gotten by beating those enemies... -again-... too.
11:52 <ConfusionRift> ...they're delivery quests.
11:52 <ConfusionRift> I think I have to do some tracking in order to get more optionals.
11:53 <ConfusionRift> Something's angry at the forest.

12:03 <ConfusionRift> The heck? Zorah is back?! That was fast!
12:03 <Schism> Ooh, you've got that one. There's also an event quest which lets you fight him over and over.
12:04 * Schism pokes the Cepheid until he awakens.
12:04 <Cepheid> Hello.
12:04 <Schism> If you want, I can join you on that. Zorah parts are useful.
12:04 <Schism> And hi hi.
12:04 <Cepheid> I just left for the clinic. I won't be home for a bit.
12:05 <ConfusionRift> It's not an event. It's a revisit of the assigned one.
12:05 <Schism> Ah, pity! That's okay, I think two folks should be able to take down Zorah. The output is... increased quite a lot.
12:05 <Cepheid> Rifty, I one had three Xeno runs in a row.
12:05 <Schism> Yeah, and you get two quests to do it.
12:05 <Cepheid> That was 3 pairs of 2 kill quests.
12:06 <ConfusionRift> Oh geez. 0_0;
12:06 <Cepheid> Special hunts like that are random. Will always consist of 2 quests.
12:07 <Schism> Zorah parts are always in high demand.
12:07 <ConfusionRift> I know. I just got confused with the repeated run event quest.
12:07 <ConfusionRift> Schism: Should I join your session?
12:08 <Schism> Or I can join yours, either way.
12:09 <ConfusionRift> Sure thing.
12:09 <Schism> Lemme know so we don't get stuck in a loop. :P
12:11 <ConfusionRift> I guess I could jump to yours. It's the same either way.
12:11 <Schism> May as well join mine, yea.
12:12 <Schism> Missing... hm. Not that many items left on the culinary front.
12:12 <Cepheid> Remember. Central core. Climb volcano, hit stalactites. Destroy volcano core. Drop down, get rear core, then get left-hand stalagmite.
12:13 <Schism> Wait, stalagmite? Just making sure.
12:13 <Schism> Because I keep looking at the ceiling for that one.
12:13 <ConfusionRift> There are some stalagmites rigged with explosives.
12:13 <Schism> Aha. So that wasn't a typo.
12:14 <ConfusionRift> I believe they should be marked on the map as you move.
12:14 <ConfusionRift> Well, mini-map.
12:14 <ConfusionRift> Just have to hit them with your slinger.
12:14 <Schism> Yah, but stalactites cling tightly to the ceiling, while stalagmites are the other way around.

12:20 <Cepheid> Owowowow
12:21 <Cepheid> I hurt this morning.
12:21 <Ali> Least you've been asleep
12:21 <Cepheid> Yes and no.
12:22 * Ali thinks she should go try and sleep herself. She tried SP Factorio and it broke her mind a bit.
12:23 <Ali> Everything was in horrible places
12:23 <Ali> Cliffs and trees in bad locations
12:23 <Ali> Bugs in larger bases than I thought there should be only a few hexes out from the safe zone
12:24 <Ali> Low coal
12:24 <Cepheid> Yep. The bugs are... yeah.
12:24 <Ali> They hadn't attacked yet but I'm just too paranoid
12:24 <Cepheid> That said they drastically increased the maximum starting area size.
12:24 <Ali> If you edit it that is
12:25 <Cepheid> At 600%, it's quite large.
12:25 <Ali> I had to reroll the start several times due to either too many bases closeby or overlaping materials
12:26 <Ali> But my lord, just having two red belt makers increase demand on iron by a ton.
12:27 <Ali> I had 36 iron makers, 12 of them tier 2 and they barely started to keep up with it.
12:27 <Cepheid> Yeah. The resource spawning is a bit wonky for the starting area. It took something like 20 different seeds before I found the map on the server.
12:27 <Ali> Well I hate overlapping mats
12:27 <Ali> Like Stone/Coal or Iron/Copper
12:28 <Cepheid> Every other map, there was overlap. Either with other resources, or with cliffs.
12:28 <Ali> Good old cliffs
12:28 <Cepheid> Same. At least, that early on.
12:28 <Ali> They can be nice if they're defensive
12:28 <Cepheid> When you have no way of filtering resources easily and such.
12:28 <Ali> But most of the time, they're just a pain in the butt
12:29 <Cepheid> And yeah. Cliffs act as indestructible walls if they are in the right places.
12:29 <Ali> I set walls and turrets into a chest Cepheid if you need them and I'm not on yet
12:29 <Ali> Well sometimes you can use the cliff as a wall against biters
12:29 <Cepheid> I'm not either. I'm waiting for the clinic to open.
12:29 <Ali> So they have to go around to get to the turret
12:29 <Cepheid> Yep.
12:29 <Ali> I won't be on yet either, need sleep first but just letting you know
12:30 <Ali> Though I kinda mucked up again and set the stuff up and didn't plan out for another belt of goods being added into the mix so uh...might have to tear the thing down again later..
12:30 <Ali> But red ammo is going to the north wall, and I changed the belt to only feed the north wall in a loop
12:31 <Cepheid> Ali, remember what I said early on? I don't care if it looks like spaghetti.
12:31 <Ali> Also we have medium Spitters now
12:31 <Cepheid> Yep.
12:31 <Ali> Yeah I know
12:32 <Ali> Its a mix of that right now, since steel, stone, and sulfur are all being longbelted into the area
12:32 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/vegandanshi/status/1224528851201429504?s=19
12:32 <Ali> But we've got the main four bottles being made now, and Tanks tech is done
12:32 <Ali> I think I told it to tech Laser Turrets next.
12:34 <Ali> But I think I'm gonna go lie down, my headphones have been going god awful recently with crackling while in noise cancel mode.
12:35 <Cepheid> Oof.
12:36 <ConfusionRift> And there it goes.
12:37 <Schism> Aye.
12:37 <Schism> We didn't get its head piece, tho. Alas.
12:38 *** Joins: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-tpdjag.livnmi.sbcglobal.net)
12:38 <ConfusionRift> Ah, right. I keep forgetting.
12:38 <Schism> That's alright, it went down after all.
12:38 <ConfusionRift> We'll have to basically ignore Nergigante.
12:38 <Cepheid> It honestly is kind of tricky to get the head core.
12:39 <Cepheid> Because you need to hope he uses a certain attack.
12:39 <Schism> He did - repeatedly - but I fell off because he didn't use it for long enough.
12:39 <Cepheid> You can't get on the head through using the binder. Even though it lowers his head enough to jump down, when he recovers, the game spazzes and kicks you off of him.
12:40 <Schism> I got onto him the right way, and got three more chunks of ore.
12:42 <Ali> So guess how much it will cost to get a new pair...
12:43 <Cepheid> 300-400.
12:43 <Ali> Pretty much
12:44 <Ali> That's all of my month's leftover money from important stuff, if not more
12:44 <Ali> So I'd have to go a full month on nothing...
12:44 <Cepheid> I have a pair of Bose noise canceling headphones. That was their approximate cost.
12:44 <Ali> Yep, they're Bose
12:45 <Cepheid> Really should get new ear pieces for those.
12:45 <Ali> Bose main two right now are 300-350
12:45 <Ali> Though they have one pair on sale for 100 off
12:45 <Ali> But its an ugly ass color
12:45 <Ali> But I better stop griping and get to sleep
12:45 * Ali flops over.
12:45 <Cepheid> Not sure why, but my head exudes something that degrades most over-the-air cushioning pieces. They literally start to fall to pieces.

12:47 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1223292560115949568?s=19 Sometimes I wonder if that stuff is related to my allergies and/or sinus issues in any way. Shouldn't be happening as far as I know.

12:55 <Cepheid> So, despite being very careful, and locking the cats out of my room...
12:56 <Cepheid> The cats managed to get a hair underneath my new phones screen protector.
13:00 <Schism> Mmm. More Zorah gems.
13:01 <Schism> Also... ... cats get everywhere.
13:02 <Cepheid> Yep.
13:02 <Cepheid> Meh. Could be worse. Could have scratches the screen up or broke it like my last phone.
13:03 <Cepheid> To make sure that doesn't happen this time, my current phone has both an otterbox and a screen protector protecting it.
13:03 <Cepheid> Especially since it seems to be the sweet spot for handling my usual phone activities.
13:04 <Cepheid> Need to get a wireless charging pad though. The dock I bought doesn't work with the case.
13:06 <Cepheid> Slightly annoyed by the memory usage though. Core system takes up nearly half the ram alone.
13:07 <Cepheid> Even my old phone, with a custom OS, under standard load, doesn't reach half memory usage.
13:07 <Cepheid> But, I don't want to go rooting until I've paid off the phone.
13:08 <Cepheid> Anyways, back in a bit. Gonna head over to the clinic now.
13:14 <Cepheid> Oh great. The recall opens at 9 am now. Not 8. So I have to stand out in the freezing cold.
13:16 <Cepheid> Ah well. Got my wind breaker sweater coat.
13:17 <Schism> Star Suit is silly on a Palico.
13:18 <Cepheid> That the alien one?

13:30 <Cepheid> ... admit.
13:30 <Cepheid> ...
13:30 <Cepheid> Damnit*
13:31 <Cepheid> My doctor is on vacation and the clinic is not accepting patients. Appointments only.
13:31 <Cepheid> I'll have to weather this illness for a while longer.
13:31 <Cepheid> At least it isn't like, a critical problem.
13:36 <Cepheid> I'll go home and take some preemptive measures to make sure I don't pass out today.

13:51 <Schism> Oh, sorry, Pukei, that poison cloud isn't going to work on me, with a Poison Charm and your chestpiece. :P
13:51 *** Quits: OctaveSymphony (OctaveSymph@Octave.fluffy.pegasi.mare) (Quit: Woopsie)
13:52 * ConfusionRift somehow walked out of that cloud unscathed. 0_0
13:52 <Schism> Our Palicos both got poisoned badly, tho.
13:52 <ConfusionRift> I got no poison protection, and I evaded it somehow, despite not being able to see due to said cloud.
13:52 <Schism> The pools are a little more worrisome, I think.
13:52 <ConfusionRift> Our Palicos... yeah, not so much. :P
13:53 <Cepheid> Poison has a buildup. Getting hit by a cloud or pool from those plants isn't guaranteed poisoning.
13:53 <Schism> Well, any status ailment has that, tis true.
13:53 <Schism> Even Blast, which confused me for a little while.
13:54 <Cepheid> Only direct attacks tend to poison immediately.
13:54 <Cepheid> Yeah, blast is a sneaky one.
13:54 <Cepheid> Either builds up on it's own, or it explodes if a second blast attack is applied.
13:55 * ConfusionRift goes get something to bite.
13:56 <Schism> Either way, it was a good idea to get Poison Resist before fighting a Pukei, if only so that I didn't have to Antidote myself halfway through. Still had to use a Max Potion, though, because of FREAKING ANJANOTH.
13:56 <ConfusionRift> Will figure the monitor issue later.
13:56 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, that guy just crashed it hard.
13:56 <ConfusionRift> Also... REALLY?!
13:56 <ConfusionRift> Game tossed me right at him. -_-
13:57 <Schism> Once you start HR quests, it'll sometimes just ignore your camp selection and throw you right in front of your target.
13:57 <Cepheid> Monitor issue?
13:57 <ConfusionRift> I know, but still.
13:57 <Cepheid> And yeah. Used to be random locations altogether. But with the ability to fly to any camp, it didn't mean anything.
13:57 <Schism> Cepheid: CR's two monitors activate at different times, leading to Windows seeing one before the other and adjusting everything on screen accordingly.
13:58 <Cepheid> Ah. That.
13:58 <Schism> Oh, it's still random locations.
13:58 <Schism> I tried dropping in at the NE campsite and wound up just a little bit off. Not far enough to get me into the maws of Rathalos/Rathian, but far enough to annoy.
13:59 <ConfusionRift> Schism: It used to be all the time. Like, you were lucky if they dropped you at camp.
13:59 <Cepheid> No. It's not random locations *Unless* there is a rare node.
13:59 <Schism> Oh! Okay.
13:59 * Schism has been combing through his Investigations, looking for upsurges. :S
13:59 <Cepheid> Nowadays, it's either you land near a rare mining node which gives all armor spheres...
14:00 <Cepheid> Or you land in front of a target monster.
14:00 <Schism> I do like how Investigations are now giving me all 80-point spheres.
14:04 <Cepheid> That happens yeah. As the rank of the quests go up, the spheres increase in quality.
14:04 <Cepheid> I'm getting mostly 80, with some 200 and rarely 800.
14:05 <Schism> The downside, of course, is that I'm going to wind up with some low-level armour spheres with no real use for them, and they're going to bug me as long as they stay in my inventory.
14:11 <Cepheid> There's an easy solution to that problem.
14:11 <Cepheid> Use up your low-level spheres first, then use the higher-tier ones.
14:12 <Cepheid> They work on all equipment.
14:12 <Cepheid> Unlike previous games, where high- and G-rank started at higher-tier armorspheres for upgrade.
14:12 <Schism> I know, I know. I'm just never going to get anymore low level spheres, and I have this OCD thing going on.
14:13 <Cepheid> To be honest, you'll still see a lot of green and orange spheres.
14:13 <Cepheid> I got like, over 100 of the orange ones, because of all the assists I do, and of course, Seliana's steamworks minigame.
14:14 <Cepheid> Basically, the minigame consists of just pressing a sequence of three buttons repeatedly to build up steam. As you do so though, you get items for each successful boost, more or less.
14:14 <Schism> Heh. Well, perhaps I'll see a ton more, then. And oh, nice.
14:14 <Cepheid> And most of those items are stuff like armor spheres and such.
14:14 <Cepheid> I don't really understand the game's mechanics, though. So I can't offer any tips.
14:14 <Schism> Once per quest, or once per day?
14:14 <Cepheid> So long as you have fuel items, as frequently as you want.
14:14 <Cepheid> Fuel also builds up over time over quests.
14:14 <Schism> Hmmm.
14:15 <Cepheid> The basic gist of it is that you press three buttons in some sequence, and if you get the order right, I believe you get an item.
14:15 <Cepheid> However, hints as to the sequence are... yeah.
14:16 <Cepheid> It shows numbers above each button, 1, 2 and 3, in different orders. One would assume that these numbers indicate the order of the button presses, but sometimes, it's not.
14:16 <Cepheid> One of these days, I should take a good look at the whole game, and figure it out.
14:17 * ConfusionRift slowly tilts his head.
14:19 <Cepheid> Apparently, Seliana runs on steampower.
14:19 <Cepheid> And you provide fuel and help get the steam engine running to full capacity.
14:19 <Cepheid> In return, easy items.
14:19 <Cepheid> Ranging from the mundane of potions, all the way up to Golden Wyverian Prints or King Armor Spheres.
14:22 <Schism> Of course, gotta get to MR first.
14:25 <Cepheid> That, fortunately, is relatively straightforward.
14:25 <Cepheid> Just complete the main storyline.
14:25 <Cepheid> You don't have to do the dual Tempered Bazelgeuse or HR49 Kirin quests.
14:25 <Cepheid> You can if you want, though.
14:28 <Cepheid> Nrrghhh..
14:28 <Cepheid> Tizzy, I'm busy.
14:31 <Schism> Meanwhile, there's that freaking legendary fish for the Piscene quest.
14:31 <Cepheid> The last set of the requests in the base game are a tad annoying, yes.
14:31 <Cepheid> They have very specific details about them.
14:32 <Cepheid> Like, specific region, specific weather, specific time of day.
14:33 * ConfusionRift looks unsurprised. :P
14:35 <Finwe> Good afternoon, my pastel-coloured ungulates with an odd number of toes.
14:36 <Cepheid> Tizzy, please stop.
14:36 <Finwe> Lt Cdr ConfusionRift, Capt Koopz; Messrs Cepheid and Schism.
14:36 <Finwe> o7
14:37 <Koopz> RAdm. Finwe o7
14:38 <Koopz> i'm fightin' a war against someone trying to turn my server into a bitcoin miner
14:38 <Cepheid> Oof.
14:39 <Koopz> the worst thing is i don't know how he does it
14:39 <ConfusionRift> RAdm. Finwe. (salutes)
14:40 <Koopz> the miner is being executed as www-data so it has to be through one of the websites on the server
14:40 <Koopz> but i already checked the access logs for POSTs resulting in a 200
14:40 <Koopz> nothing out of the ordinary
14:40 <Finwe> o3o
14:40 <Koopz> ssh logs, no logins 'cept for mine
14:41 * Cepheid tries to draw something using a touchpad, but Tizzy nudges his hand and messes it up.
14:42 <Koopz> scanned every vhost for obfuscated code or webshells
14:42 <Koopz> found one but according to the logs it was never used. Pretty sure somone didn't delete it from the last attack
14:44 <Koopz> i don't know what to do now...
14:44 <Finwe> Sounds like a good time for some security enhancements.
14:45 <Koopz> yeah i'd love to just throw an axe into that blade
14:45 <Koopz> this thing is supposed to be obsolete but there's still stuff on it that needs to be migrated
14:46 <Koopz> i'm blocking traffic to the mining job servers through iptables
14:46 <ConfusionRift> Oh cool, a Panasonic CRT, like the one I used to have. How much for it? | "$650" | HAAAAH! Hahahaaaa! That is funny. | "..." | Dood, it's not worth that much, it's not gonna worth that years laters, and sure as hell wasn't worth that much back then.
14:47 <Cepheid> Yep.
14:47 <Koopz> for the last 4 of his tries he created the folder containing the bad stuff on the same path so i just created an empty folder owned by root with no write permissions for www-data
14:48 <Koopz> this won't do anything but...
14:50 <Koopz> part of this setup relies on crontab
14:50 <Koopz> i tried putting www-data into /etc/cron.d/cron.deny but for some reason www-data can still run crons
14:50 <Koopz> maybe Debian 6 doesn't support that
15:01 * Finwe noms on fried saithe served with mashed potatoes.
15:03 <Koopz> hmm...
15:03 <Koopz> what happens if i chown the crontab file of www-data
15:03 <Koopz> that should prevent it from getting edited
15:07 <Cepheid> I'm starting to wonder if there's something in the air in this house.
15:08 <Cepheid> I was feeling relatively fine out and about earlier. But since coming home, I'm starting to feel really, really bad.
15:08 <Finwe> Nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, argon and some other chemicals. o3o
15:09 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9umFNdje8lw
15:09 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.
15:09 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Most Hilarious Super Mario World Rom Hack EVER!
15:10 <ConfusionRift> Oh, Diagonal Mario. :P
15:11 <Cepheid> It's one of those "What the f-"
15:12 <ConfusionRift> The sprite work, the music mash, the tampering of certain elements... a lot of work on a joke, basically. :P
15:14 <Cepheid> I'm not sure what to say about Yoshi. Especially as he appears to disappear from under you when you get a 1-up egg, and then spawns from said egg.
15:15 <ConfusionRift> It's gonna get worse, dood.
15:16 <ConfusionRift> Already saw another youtuber play it, and... (nods) yep.
15:16 <ConfusionRift> Apparently there's a stage one can soft-lock on.
15:17 <Cepheid> Given the nature of the mod, seems fair.
15:20 * Cepheid goes to lay down.
15:20 <Koopz> chowning the crontab file in /var/spool/cron does do the trick... but i'm not satisfied yet
15:23 <Koopz> this whole situation feels like a crazy escape room, 'cept that i need to find all the hints to keep everyone out the way he got in
15:24 <Cepheid> Is... That U.N. Owen Was Her for the fortress boss theme?
15:24 * ConfusionRift slowly nods.
15:24 <ConfusionRift> It was in the intro. :P
15:28 <Cepheid> I didn't have audio on cause laptop issues. Watching it on my tablet now. :P
15:29 <ConfusionRift> Oh, and the magical thing in the water stage is that if you just jump, Mario starts accelerating forward on his own and gain stupid speed.
15:30 <Cepheid> I honestly suspect all of the design for this was done while on drugs.
15:31 <Cepheid> Then after they wore off, the developer was like "yeah, yeah this could work" and then implemented it
15:31 <ConfusionRift> Oh, they never finished it.
15:33 <ConfusionRift> It gets so much worse after that, especially the end.
15:36 <ConfusionRift> I forgot it also had the most destroyed remix for Mettaton's theme.
15:50 <Cepheid> I feel like I'm suffering a seizure from watching a full playthroug.
15:51 <ConfusionRift> You were waaaaarned. :P

17:17 <Schism> That is what usually happens after two glasses of orange juice. o3o
17:19 <Cepheid> True. But it is still unusual for me. I don't normally feel full after such a small 'meal'.

17:21 <Cepheid> I dunno. But do me a favor. If something happens to me, give me a slap upside the face. I should have dealt with this sooner rather than hold out.
17:24 <Cepheid> Not that I think anything will happen. It's just... I dunno. Something feels odd and I dunno what it is or how to put it in words.
17:32 <Schism> Just feeling off? I know the sensation.
17:35 <Cepheid> Of course part of that could be the dye in my system. Apparently it takes a few days of drinking lots of water to fully get rid of it?
17:36 <Schism> Might be, but I don't think it's meant to react with the body in any way other than osmosis.
17:36 <Schism> Or whatever. Heh, because I'm 9 years old, has it changed the colour of your urine?
17:37 <Cepheid> No. And trust me you're not the first to joke about it. Both of my parents took shots at me about glowing and such.
17:38 <Schism> Ah, sorry about that.
17:39 <Cepheid> Nah it's fine. :P
17:39 <Schism> Okay, then. <Reverb> Cepheid, the man who glows in a colour imperceptible to the naked eye! </Reverb>
17:39 <Cepheid> Danged stuff burned going in though.
17:39 <Schism> Could be worse. Could've been potassium.
17:40 <Schism> Potassium IVs are like Tizzy clawing up your veins.
17:41 <Cepheid> What would that be used for?
17:42 <Cepheid> Also, I am apparently not over my childhood trauma of IV butterfly needles. The moment the technician revealed it was an IV needle, I went straight into panic mode.
17:42 <Schism> ... potassium deficiency, of course.
17:43 <Cepheid> I do not have a good history regarding them. All thanks to one particular day.
17:43 <Cepheid> Of course. I thought there might have been another reason for potassium.
17:43 <Schism> Oh, nah. Nothing else in this case.
17:44 <Schism> I... kinda don't want to hear this. Amusingly, for a Type 1 diabetic, while I'm fine with the high-gauge needles, I am terrible with bloodletting or IVs. I just swallow, look away, and let the technician guide it gently into my arm.
17:45 <Cepheid> Basic gist of trauma: Trainee nurse, both hands, 5-6 attempts each. Never got it in. Painful as hell. Later that evening a doctor and a bunch of orderlies burst into my hospital room, forcibly flipped me over, held me down and injected something into my ass, under the argument that I was being troublesome and rebellious regarding the IV needles.
17:45 <Cepheid> And sorry, I didn't read your message.
17:46 <Schism> ... I was not aware that your past was, in fact, a live recreation of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
17:46 <Cepheid> Or at least, in time to stop myself.
17:46 <Cepheid> I've got a history with hospitals.
17:47 <Schism> Christ, that is, indeed, about as traumatizing as I can imagine, without being subjected to an autopsy.
17:47 <Cepheid> I've actually had orderlies also restrain me in the operating rooms.
17:47 <Schism> Was the anesthesiologist sick that day, or was this for a better reason than that?
17:48 <Cepheid> I didn't like the gas anaesthetics. It made me horribly sick to breathe in, and after I woke up, my stomach always did a 360.
17:49 <Cepheid> It is guaranteed. And the hospitals never prepared for it.
17:49 <Schism> That's sensible. ... this is all starting to sound like a delightful series of malpractice lawsuits.
17:49 <Cepheid> The reason I have a quite-visible appendix scar is because they didn't listen to me or my parents about that issue.
17:50 <Cepheid> Nor did they show any concern when I told them to get me a damned bin or something.
17:50 <Schism> I wish that they paid for that themselves, but hey, that's why they hire janitors.
17:50 <Cepheid> I had to get up off the bed right there, minutes after waking up, and crawl my ass to the nearest washroom.
17:50 <Cepheid> Keep in mind, i just had my appendix removed. Fresh wound and all.
17:51 <Schism> Remind me never, ever to visit Ottawa. You can come here instead.
17:51 <Cepheid> This was in Cornwall.
17:51 <Cepheid> CHEO is much better.
17:52 <Schism> Ah, good to hear. Still never visiting Cornwall, then.
17:52 <Cepheid> But yeah. I didn't make it unfortunately. And the hospital staff gave me crap for it.
17:52 <Schism> Wait, wait, let me guess.
17:52 <Schism> "Why didn't you push the nurse call button?"
17:52 <Cepheid> Basically. But we had already done that. They were taking their time.
17:53 <Schism> When you immediately started hammering on that like you were playing Cookie Clicker. Sheesh.
17:53 <Cepheid> Like, I tried to hold out until a nurse came back with the bin.
17:53 <Schism> Been there. When it wants to come out, it really wants to, and holding it back just makes it worse.
17:53 <Cepheid> But there is a breaking point where I go "Nope. Can't hold it down anymore."
17:54 <Schism> Typically, this occurs two or three meters from the toilet or sink.
17:55 <Cepheid> But yeah because of that incident, I'm assuming that's why scar is quite visible, and stretched as well.
17:55 <Schism> Eh, could be worse. I forget if I ever showed you my right hand.
17:55 <Cepheid> It was also the ultimate example of pain endurance from me.
17:55 <Cepheid> I believe you have.
17:56 <Schism> Giant jagged tendon thing. Fun times.
17:56 <Cepheid> My dad meanwhile has a permanent scar from when he put a stick through his hand.
17:56 <Schism> Yerp.
17:56 <Schism> Anyway, this has been Schism and Cepheid's bodily dysfuntime hour. Join us again next week, when we discuss the joys of fingernails!
17:58 <Cepheid> Anyhow, the anaesthetics these days seem to be different.

17:58 <Cepheid> I no longer get the same reaction out of the gas.
17:58 <Schism> Mmm. They do make it a point to clear that sort of thing up.
17:59 <Schism> Allow me please, Cepheid, to share with you an article from 2005. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16013696
17:59 <Cepheid> But damn if my mind doesn't try to resist.
17:59 *** Joins: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-0och43.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
17:59 <Schism> In short: it's not just you, and those doctors over at Cornwall should have their pants sued off, set on fire, then reapplied.
18:01 <Cepheid> Heh.
18:01 <Schism> "Of course, the most logical approach for prevention would be the omission of volatile anaesthetics and nitrous oxide using a total intravenous anaesthesia with propofol." YOU DON'T SAY.
18:01 <Cepheid> It's a bit past the statute of limitations these days I think.
18:02 <Schism> Is there such a statute with regards to cases which cause lasting mental harm?
18:02 <Cepheid> That statement is interesting. Because the last few surgeries I had, they did in fact use IV anaesthetics.
18:02 <Schism> Much easier?
18:03 <Schism> Outside of the whole IV cringe bit.
18:03 <Cepheid> Much easier, quicker to act. They apparently switch to the gas after the IV takes effect.
18:04 <Schism> That does make sense, though it's rather interesting to hear that you're not volatile after the effect wears off. Could be a number of factors there, of course.
18:04 <Cepheid> Like I said. Could be a new anaesthetic.
18:05 <Schism> Eh. Probably a mix. Still, good to hear they've got that set for you.
18:06 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, the IV needle thing is just temporary these days. Initial shock of finding out, talking about it, getting the needle in, then I'm good.
18:06 <Schism> Eh, sounds about standard for anyone with a fear of butterfly needles. I've never been entirely at ease with them either.
18:07 <Cepheid> Helps if the nurse/tech/doctor actually knows what they are doing, too.
18:07 <Schism> Though I still dread that if I ever get hospitalized, I'll get a potassium supplement in my IVs. I'm like, "Can I maybe eat 50 bananas instead?"
18:08 <Cepheid> Decently trained individuals can get it in with a minimal amount of pain. Case in point, it hurt more to have my blood drawn a few weeks back.
18:08 *** Quits: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-0och43.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Quit: Leaving.)
18:09 <Schism> Aye. They take the most robust folks to test new nurses and doctors. And I'm pretty sure that your medical chart reads 'physically immortal' on it somewhere.
18:09 <Cepheid> Or "medical mystery"
18:10 <Schism> I'm pretty sure there's a few articles on the obvious suspects with your biometics on there.
18:10 <Cepheid> I wonder what the thickness of my medical file would be today if they collected all the relevant data from all the hospitals and doctors I've seen, then printed it out.
18:11 <Schism> You know, that's a really good question. I wonder if you can request that documentation.
18:11 <Cepheid> Largest I ever saw was at the hospital in Cornwall. By the time I was 11, it was two or three inches thick.
18:12 <Schism> While doctor-patient privacy is one thing, surely there has to be some way to request your own medical records.
18:12 <Cepheid> It is possible, yes.
18:13 <Schism> I would offer you a laser printer for the opportunity, if only for the joy of seeing you slap down a twelve-inch file folder on your next doctor's desk and tell them, "Read."
18:13 <Cepheid> My parents have a copy of all my paperwork from when I was a baby, hidden away around here somewhere.
18:13 <Cepheid> 'Twas an inch thick.
18:14 <Schism> Impressive. And here I am, with a few cards and a certificate of birth.
18:15 <Schism> ...gah, there it is again.
18:15 <Schism> Deja vu. I swear we've had this exact conversation before. But I know we haven't.
18:15 <Cepheid> Mostly because they tested me for everything under the sun in trying to figure out why I'd stop breathing, recover, then develop a high-grade fever.
18:16 <Cepheid> I guarantee there is a medical paper about that. Because of the order of symptoms.
18:17 <Cepheid> Fever usually comes before symptoms. Not after recovery.

18:17 <Schism> Probably got rejected from JAMA because it's too weird, though.
18:18 <Schism> Cepheid, I swear, you could stand in front of an LRT, and nothing would happen to you. It would somehow jump the rails, veer into the wall or nearby building, and you'd survive the explosion unscathed.
18:18 <Cepheid> They never did figure out what caused it. I just grew out of it.
18:19 <Schism> Wait, I've got it.
18:19 <Schism> You need to come down here to Kitchener and compare medical charts with James Nicoll.
18:19 <Cepheid> There was also a period where my lungs would fill up with a viscous fluid. Grew out of that too. Same result. No cause found.
18:20 <Schism> That... sounds like your sinuses were dropping into your lungs. Was that sinus fluid?
18:20 <Cepheid> By all rights, given what my mother has told me of my first few years of life, I should be six feet under.
18:21 <Schism> If it's any consolation, I'm glad you aren't, but ye gods man.
18:21 <Cepheid> I don't know. My mother doesn't remember.
18:21 <Schism> I'm just imagining what the professional who you'd contract to acquire your medical records would say. "My god. It just keeps going."
18:23 <Cepheid> Also according to my mother, my right lung is smaller than it should be. How much so I'm not sure. It was noted on recent x-rays and CT scans, but it wasn't something to be concerned about.
18:23 <Cepheid> No, those reports were more concerned with the scarring and shadows.
18:24 * Schism nodnods.
18:24 <Schism> Shadows which seem to be without any particular cause.
18:24 <Cepheid> Pneumonia actually.
18:25 <Schism> Oh, okay. A sensible cause.
18:25 <Cepheid> In both cases, it had just finished clearing up pneumonia via antibiotics, prior to the scans.
18:26 <Cepheid> The shadowing wasn't bad enough to indicate anything though. But just to be safe, this time a CT scan with dye to check blood vesserls.
18:26 <Schism> Leading to the idea of a growth which can't be removed... mmm.
18:27 <Cepheid> That is why I am mildly concerned and stressed about it.
18:28 * Schism nods. "Such chronic cases are definitely worrisome."
18:28 <Cepheid> It is unusual to get such frequent cases of pneumonia, years after nothing and more nothing.
18:29 <Cepheid> Fine for most of my life. Nothing worse than a persistent, minor cough.
18:30 <Cepheid> Now, I have trouble sleeping in all of my usual positions because of bubbling, coughing, and chest murmuring. Every few months I contract either pneumonia or a lung infection...
18:30 <Cepheid> At the least I know it can't be too serious for one reason.
18:31 <Cepheid> I'm not coughing up blood or anything of the like.

18:55 <Schism> ... well. MFW I realize I might have just helped out someone on an MLB team yesterday.
18:55 <Cepheid> Oh?
18:56 <Schism> This requires unpacking which I can't talk about on a public channel.
19:02 * Cepheid heats up some leftover soup.
19:04 * Schism hmms. Tests Cepheid. "Yup, you're just wrapping your hands around it, aren't you?"
19:04 <Cepheid> Heh. Amazingly I don't have a fever. Though I haven't checked recently.
19:04 <Cepheid> Course, it doesn't help that the tylenol I take hides any fever I will develop.
19:05 <Schism> From what you've mentioned, your fever will go away for just long enough that a thermometer won't register it, on cue.
19:06 <Cepheid> True. That said right now I'm at 98.6.
19:06 <Cepheid> But I know I'm sick. I can feel it in my lungs.
19:07 <Cepheid> I'll keep an eye on my health. If it deteriorates, I'll go to the ER.
19:07 <Schism> Ah. It just hasn't done the whole Bazelgeuse thing and exploded yet.

19:17 * Cepheid cuts a third one in half, squeezes the juice out of it, adds juice to soda water from a sodastream.

19:59 * Ali watches food fly, drools.
19:59 * Schism wheels a bagel with cream cheese and lox over to Ali.
20:00 * Schism then latches onto the Bagel and tries to get through its exterior, but can't, and is summarily thrown into a wall.
20:00 * Ali doesn't know what this lox is, sniffs curiously
20:00 <Cepheid> What *IS* lox anyway?
20:00 <Schism> Thin-sliced smoked salmon.
20:01 <Schism> Goes well on a bagel with cream cheese and dill. o3o;
20:01 <Schism> And loads of butter.
20:01 <Cepheid> Huh. A common thing served on bagels? Or with?
20:01 * PrincessRainbows licks Ali a lot and barks
20:01 <Schism> Served on, aye.
20:02 <Schism> At least in places that habitually serve bagels. I can get by with a bit of cream cheese and tuna melt, but it's nowhere near the same.
20:04 *** Quits: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-dg2.39d.142.80.IP) (Quit: Leaving.)
20:04 <Schism> You take a bagel, mix in a bit of dill weed with the cream cheese, add a prodigous amount of butter, and top it with some smoked fish meats. It's ... very Manhattan.
20:04 <Ali> Does it come with a foul mouthed little squirrel?
20:04 <Schism> Only if you order the deluxe.
20:05 <Schism> This is coming from someone in Kitchener, mind you, so I don't have any idea what Manhattan, Soho, or the like even look like. I got a good glimpse of Pennsylvania, though, and hope never to again.

20:17 <Cepheid> The Chinese government wants to give the impression that they have it under control. So they suppress attempts for information to get out. This isn't new.

20:18 * Finwe boops Schism with Doctor Who S12E06.
20:18 <Schism> Okay, so that was amusing.
20:19 <Schism> Called up to my local Shoppers Drug Mart. "Hi, do you have any hand sanit--" "NOPE!" "Kay, thanks!" "Take care."
20:20 <Finwe> Or is this E05? The first episode was a double episode.

20:33 <Schism> He's just trying to break you out of your blight.
20:35 <Cepheid> Unfortunately it isn't working. I'd have less trouble coping if it didn't affect sleep, or result in cycling periods of cold sweats and not-sweating. Oh, and if I could do anything other than lay in bed and read.

21:40 <Ali> I hope they'll get over that a bit in a few more years.
21:40 <Cepheid> I'm sure they will.
21:40 <Cepheid> Just keep at it with calling them and petting them when you can.
21:41 <Ali> Gonna muck any with Factorio? Its fine if you don't, just can't SP that game right now as I just can't focus on all the stuff in my mind with that game.
21:43 <Cepheid> Sorry. Not right now. Feel like *YAY* right now. Don't feel up to sitting up.
21:44 <Cepheid> That said, I'm likely to feel like this for a few days. Should look into some sort of solution to play games while laying down.
