04:26 * Cepheid flexes wrist. *CRACK!* "..."

04:29 <Ali> Its...not supposed to do that right?

04:30 <Cepheid> Not that loud, no.

04:31 <Ali> I was guessing either it broke or hurt like heck and then felt better.

04:32 <Cepheid> Latter.

04:32 <Cepheid> I did injure the hand yesterday, so again, probably related to that.

04:33 <Cepheid> That, or it is the onset of horrifically crippling arthritis.  Which I'll just grind through either way.

04:43 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com)

04:43 * Golden has New Horizons pre-ordered!!!!

04:51 * Ali sanic's on Golden

04:52 <Golden> Guessing you saw the Sonic Movie Ali

04:52 <Ali> Saw it today yes

04:53 <Golden> I loved it! I saw it last night

04:55 <Ali> It was better than expected

04:56 <Golden> I just have an issue with.....the flossing really, but other than that I fully enjoyed it

04:57 <Ali> I don't know what this flossing is though

04:57 <Ali> I mean it wasn't bad, there's a few personal irks only to being a sonic and SATAM fan forever

04:57 <Ali> But I can't let that drag things down due to such high expectations.

04:59 <Golden> It's a stupid fortnite dance

05:00 * Ali headtilts

05:00 <Ali> Oh one of the I beat the badguys so I dance thing?

05:01 <Golden> Basically

05:01 <Ali> How are you not hurt?  I HAVE NO IDEA

05:03 <Golden> I did laugh at the line

05:07 <Ali> There were some good one liners

05:07 <Golden> Over all I really did love the Sonic Movie. Robotnik was amazing. Especially when he was starting to get his trademark laugh.

05:08 <Ali> Again for me the design is off

05:08 <Ali> Again I'm spoiled to SATAM and the games

05:08 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Roundup #1506 [ http://tinyurl.com/ury89fk ]

05:08 <Golden> Well it gets closer to that at the end

05:08 <Ali> I was expecting the more traditional like look he had at the end

05:09 <Ali> Still liked that they called him Robotnik for awhile

05:09 <Ali> Just wish they didn't need to slip into the Eggman thing when he doesn't even look even remotely like an egg at that point.

05:09 <Golden> It was because of the machines looking like the eggs more than anything

05:17 <Ali> Ah

05:18 <Golden> Yeah

05:18 <Ali> See I was expecting more of the animated series look or even SATAM

05:18 <Ali> But SATAMs design was DARK

05:19 <Golden> True

05:19 <Ali> And I enjoyed that VA

05:20 <Ali> Really fit that character

05:28 <Golden> It actually sounds like a teenage/child version Sonic. Which I think is what they were going for.

05:33 <Ali> Did you ever see SatAM Golden?

05:33 <Golden> Sadly no

05:35 <Ali> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R2vFDIBToI  this was the intro to that thing.  Sadly got killed off by Power Rangers.

05:38 <Ali> Also Golden I loved how they used the Sanic drawing in the movie

05:42 <Golden> It was nice to see the drawing, and I see..

05:42 <Ali> Only two seasons, got ended on with a cliffhanger

05:43 <Golden> That sucks....

05:43 <Ali> Yeah, the comics carried the SATAM torch after that

05:43 <Ali> Going all the way up to 292 I /think/ before Archie's internal disaster finally killed SATAM off for good

05:44 <Ali> Sonic comics are still alive with IDW now, but they started all over, and so far not a single SatAM character has been spotted, so I doubt we'll ever see them again.

10:09 <Ali> This website is saying that the MOTHERBOARD is fine, but the Graphics card is not

10:09 * Ali is very confused by this

10:09 <ConfusionRift> It might be the reason why you're having gaming issues?

10:35 <Koopz> or any type of sock that end below your ankle

10:36 <uni> that sounds so pointless

10:36 <Koopz> mine reach about 5cm into my jeans but i'm still freezing

17:38 <Cepheid> Nasal rinses are uncomfortable.

17:40 <uni> the name alone sounds uncomfortable

17:41 <Finwe> It's when you rinse your nose with brine.

17:45 <Cepheid> More or less.

17:45 <Cepheid> Supposedly, it helps with one of the problems that is SUPPOSEDLY causing my breathing issues.

17:46 <Cepheid> Whether or not it is helping is up for debate.

18:13 <uni> what's the MMXLC?

18:13 <Cepheid> Megaman X Legacy Collection.

18:13 <Ali> Runs like shite incarnate

18:15 *** Joins: Dranae (kacyr@I.Will.Fly.Higher)

18:15 <Cepheid> Recommend, if you can, to run at a lower resolution.

18:18 <uni> ooh I see

18:19 <Ali> And we...have 60 frames

18:20 <Ali> And then it died

18:20 <Cepheid> Quality will be a bit worse, but given the relevant games were not designed to run at high resolutions in the first place, it's moot.

18:21 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I have an oddity with No Man's Sky.  For some reason, no matter what I do, it's framerate is locked to 56 FPS.

18:22 <Cepheid> Pretty sure it's my display.

18:22 <Ali> That's odd

18:22 <Ali> It ran fine there for a moment

18:22 <Ali> Now its back to trash

18:25 <Ali> Lowered the resolution down to lowest and it for awhile it ran at 60 frames, but then stuttered right back down to 30

18:27 <Cepheid> Meanwhile I found the source of my problem.

18:27 <Cepheid> For some reason, the game's configuration files have the FPS limit set to... 56?

19:12 <Cepheid> Ali, among other things I'm seeing, there's a setting in the game's configuration file for MMXLC, an ini file.  In it is a "refresh rate" option.  Set it to 60.

19:13 <Cepheid> Some people also report pressing Alt+Enter to exit fullscreen mode, then using it again to return back to fullscreen mode fixes some issues.  See also:  Borderless Fullscreen mode.  Windowed mode.  Etc.

21:23 * Schism|Adagio lets this be for a little bit. "May as well see if one monitor will work for now."

21:25 <Cepheid> What's the issue, exactly?

21:27 <Schism|Adagio> Random total shutdowns.  I thought it might be overheating, but it might alternately be a number of causes.

21:28 <Schism|Adagio> I'm starting to think that it might even be an issue with that second monitor port, or the second monitor itself.

21:29 <Schism|Adagio> Hm, nope.  That's not the cause.

21:30 <Schism|Adagio> Can't be overheating.  Could be bad RAM.  Or a bad PSU.

21:31 <Cepheid> Run RAM test if ye can.

21:31 <Schism|Adagio> Aye.  Memtest.  I should be able to get that going.

21:54 <Schism|Adagio> Attempt to replicate Morph Ball technology #9486: subject crushed into fine paste.  Like always.

21:55 <PrincessRainbows> I'm just disullisioned with my future job

21:55 <PrincessRainbows> technology sucks basically, specifically the humans behind it do

21:57 <Schism|Adagio> Yuuuup.

21:59 <Cepheid> I disagree.  Because like most other areas, the worst of the worst tend to be the most visible.  While the good and decent are hidden or ignored.

22:03 <Schism|Adagio> It is true that, as a technical support agent, I have a low opinion of the human race, just because I only get the people who are actually having problems.

22:03 <Cepheid> Ye know, it's funny.

22:03 <Cepheid> I used to dislike humanity.  And yet, now I somehow, inexplicably have a higher opinion of it than most of the people who used to point out that I had a strong dislike of humanity.

22:04 <Schism|Adagio> Oh, I know it's intellectually dishonest to really dislike people like that.  I mean, I know damned well what sorts of biases are there.

22:09 <Schism|Adagio> I still maintain the assertion that while persons are excellent to be around, wonderful, loving, caring, honest, and respectable... people are bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling.

22:09 <Schism|Adagio> (To some extent, of course.)

22:11 <Cepheid> Again, I disagree.  But whether I disagree or not doesn't really matter.  The only reason it matters to me though is that it annoys me when people think, talk and act like that.

22:14 <Schism|Adagio> I understand.  I do try to keep my antisocial tendencies under control.  I guess it helps that I've actualized that hey, it turns out that I'm a person too!  Who knew.

22:15 <Schism|Adagio> So while I still don't understand why people act the way they do... it helps me understand that people act for a reason, even if that particular reason is alien to me.

22:17 <Schism|Adagio> If I ever take leave of my senses and have (or adopt) a child, the first thing I'd do is let them know that.  I won't grok why they act in some cases, they won't grok my motivations fully, but we do have reasons derived from what we've been through.

22:18 <Schism|Adagio> The reason I say that /people/ are stupid is because while they each have individual motivations, they can collect into a group, the goals of which are antithetical to each person's established morals and motives.

22:18 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Discussion: Who's The Best Fandom OC?!  [ http://tinyurl.com/scue74f ]

22:19 <Schism|Adagio> And mores, I guess.

22:20 <Schism|Adagio> Sometimes this is actually positive.  Obviously, social mores exist as they do for a reason, and many of them are nothing but positive.

22:21 <Schism|Adagio> And... then sometimes you get people taking contrary political positions which don't benefit them or most of their fellows, just for the sake of tribalism.

22:21 <Schism|Adagio> Anyway, I'll get off my soapbox now.

22:24 <Cepheid> Meanwhile I'm gonna lay down because nausea.

22:24 <Schism|Adagio> (One more note.  As for why I think that people should love one another, help each other out, and generally be good to one another, even if it doesn't individually benefit them... well.  I wouldn't mind living in a genuinely nicer world.)

22:24 <Schism|Adagio> Egh.  Aright.  Hope you feel better soon.

22:54 <Lumindia> ♪One minute I'm in central park... then I'm down on Delancey street♪

22:54 <Lumindia> ♪From the Bow'ry to Saint Marks... There's a syncopated beat♪

22:57 <Cepheid> Tums helped.

22:58 <Cepheid> Also I made myself sad again.  I know of the best video to show someone who believes cats don't care about other creatures.

23:08 <Schism|Adagio> That one with one cat dragging the other out of a vet's insidious clutches?

23:15 <Cepheid> No.  A video about a kitten who won't leave it's father's side, despite the father having passed away from a combination of kidney failure, liver damage and renal failure.

23:16 <Cepheid> !link https://youtu.be/0M1Pm5nCKP0

23:16 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

23:16 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about MHW ICEBORNE Admiral Ecology Intro Cutscene

23:16 <Cepheid> Mild spoilers.

23:16 <Cepheid> But it is hilarious.

23:36 <ADragonDreaming> as he picked up his hammer and saw

23:38 <ADragonDreaming> What animal makes uncles sad?

23:38 <Schism|Adagio> The unicorn, of course.

23:39 <Schism|Adagio> Anyhoo.  Lemme see then.  Clear away the dust, then replace the thermal grease on Nocturne.

23:40 <Schism|Adagio> But first, food.

23:41 <PinkieShy> I'm so tired.. >_<

23:42 <Ali> Cepheid, I've tried the 60 Hz thing and it didn't work

23:43 <Ali> Though I'm starting to worry a bit that I'm pushing a bit too far on the past time played for refunds

23:44 <Schism|Adagio> Which game?

23:44 <Ali> Megaman X Legacy Collection

23:45 <Schism|Adagio> Mm, then I would honestly suggest dropping it if it's that problematic.  Maybe they'll have a patch later on that works for you, but for now, you should get a refund.

23:47 <Ali> Schism|Adagio, its been over a year since the last patch

23:48 * Schism|Adagio sighs, "Capcom. Then I suppose a refund based on the fact that it just isn't working for you."

23:48 <Schism|Adagio> I mean, that's what they're there for.

23:49 <Ali> I might have too many hours played though Schism|Adagio

23:50 <Schism|Adagio> It's still worth it to try.

23:50 <Schism|Adagio> There's no harm in the asking.  Only in the refusal to accept a reasonable answer.

23:53 <PinkieShy> I've been up since 9am..

23:53 <Schism|Adagio> The moment anyone goes, "but can you maybe make an exception?  It's for X, Y or Z", I immediately go into shutdown mode.

23:53 <PinkieShy> I went got a shot this morning from CVS and idk if side effects are kicking in making me this tired but oh well lol

23:54 <Schism|Adagio> "Nope.  I cannot make an exception.  Nope, not even if it's for a wedding.  Nope, not even if your sick friend is dying and the last thing he wanted was a pair of shoes."

23:55 * PinkieShy boops schism

23:57 * Schism|Adagio boops PinkieShy, and works on rebuilding Nocturne.
