Really bad, since there's a stage in which you're dropped in lava and take damage over time. There are occasions when platforms just don't show up, or they show up and you accidentally despawn them.

10:12 <Cepheid> I suspect it is just her way of bonding with me, really. She also isn't capable of playing video games. She has the eyes to notice small details, but none of the dexterity, agility reflexes or understanding of controls required.
10:13 <Cepheid> Seriously, her ability to notice small details exceeds mine by several magnitudes. It's disturbing.

10:27 <Cepheid> I think the worst part about the coronavirus isn't the deaths. I won't lie, it's unfortunate, and many could have been avoided by swifter response, but there is another problem revealed that won't be rectified.
10:30 <Cepheid> A longer-term problem. Namely, we talk about all these workers, the nurses, the doctors, the people running the actually-essential services, about how important they are. And yet, because of current political and sociological ideologies, none of these people are, or will, receive their due for what they have done. No raises. No double-time-and-a-half pay. No, they'll get a statue for their efforts, then be thrown to the curbsi
10:31 <Cepheid> Rifty, you in particular come to mind.
10:32 <Cepheid> I honestly would prefer you refuse work under the OSHA argument that you are allowed to refuse unsafe work, but since you work for Walmart, who deals in groceries, you can't. You are considered essential.
10:33 <ConfusionRift> We're getting paid x1.5. It's not much, and pointless when I get such short shifts. It's something at least.
10:33 <Cepheid> Still.
10:33 <ConfusionRift> I also got a self-quarantine option, but I get no pay, and it's only for 14 days.
10:34 <Cepheid> You are putting your health at risk. And you can't avoid it. On top of that I assume you are also keeping other areas besides the essential groceries area stocked.
10:34 <ConfusionRift> I only get paid if I take the C19 test and show positive.
10:34 <Cepheid> Which is, to put it simply, bull*YAY*.
10:34 <ConfusionRift> It is, very much.
10:34 <ConfusionRift> All of this is bulldung, to the max.
10:35 <Cepheid> Basically the companies are allowed to continue selling all sorts of goods under the guise of essential services, even though more than half of those goods are not essential.
10:36 <ConfusionRift> I have considered the self quarantine, but I know what's gonna happen when I get back. I can only do it once as well.
10:36 <ConfusionRift> Oh yeah, vape shops are essential now.
10:36 <Cepheid> That, meanwhile, is also bull*YAY*.
10:36 <Cepheid> Both the limits regarding the quarantine and the vape shops.
10:37 <Cepheid> Though arguably, cigarettes and addictive(nicotine-infused ones) vapes should be considered essential because of the withdrawal symptoms they have on people.
10:37 <ConfusionRift> ^ You spotted the guise.
10:38 <Cepheid> Yeah, I assume that's what they are doing.
10:39 <ConfusionRift> Because to some people it's either vape or tobacco products. So, to avoid long term damage on top of the virus, it's now considered essential... not that I care. I don't use either. Both options are bad.
10:40 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.
10:40 <Cepheid> But as someone who has discontinued a medication due to minor addiction, I can't imagine people without their nicotine.
10:42 <ConfusionRift> It's not necessarily a nicotine issue. Some people vape for the sake of it, and get a similar dependency to a tobacco product. There are vaping products that contain no nicotine.
10:43 * ConfusionRift whispers. "And just like tobacco, it's also an expensive product overall."
10:43 <Cepheid> In my case it was opiods. There's a variant of Tylenol here that includes an opiod mixed in for better painkilling, that is considered an over-the-counter medication. I... Once overdid it on a daily basis.
10:44 <Cepheid> It wasn't oxycotin or whatever it's called.
10:46 <Cepheid> It is a weaker opiate, codeine. You might know the medication it as Tylenol One.
10:46 <ConfusionRift> Am aware of this. Some Tylenol, Panadol, and other pain medications contain higher grain or are mixed with something else. One of my coworkers had to go to the hospital and get pumped after gulping Tylenol mixed with Codeine. It didn't help the idiot downed it with tequila.
10:47 <Cepheid> I was taking upwards of 3000/60+mg or so to try and deal with the pain on a daily basis. I realized what was going on and stopped myself cold-turkey. It wasn't good.
10:48 <Cepheid> I felt jittery, irritable. If even a minor addiction was that bad, I can't imagine nicotine.
10:49 <Cepheid> Closest would be SSRI meds. They aren't considered addictive, but discontinuing them is harsh. Enough that weaning by small amounts is needed.

11:24 <Cepheid> Gonna set up Twitch on my tablet so I can monitor conversations.
11:24 <Cepheid> As a result I'll only see Twitch chat.

11:33 <Cepheid> Why is everything so hard to find when I'm drunk!?

11:37 <Cepheid> For some reason it's not picking up my voice.
11:38 <Cepheid> I wonder if it's steam interfering.
11:39 <ConfusionRift> Might be. Or one of the privacy settings.
11:39 <Cepheid> If in doubt, reboot.
11:41 <Cepheid> Ah yeah.
11:41 <Cepheid> I forgot about privacy settings.
11:42 <Cepheid> There we go.
11:43 <ConfusionRift> If you got Windows to not allow any sound inputs, it will not allow any mic use, especially when you prevent any software from doing any changes to that setting.
11:48 <ConfusionRift> Oh... you're offline.
11:48 <Cepheid> Might have been the encoding I was doing regarding the looping, sorry.
11:49 <ConfusionRift> That is all kinda of weird.
11:51 <Cepheid> Any better?

13:33 <Cepheid> Pizzaaaa.
13:35 <Cepheid> I am currently at the "In control of myself, but aware that I am still impaired and should not do anything requiring focus" stage of recuperating from drinking.
13:36 <Cepheid> Any improvements with getting the new video card working right?
13:39 <ADragonDreaming> I need to test more.
13:40 <ADragonDreaming> I was getting frame drops in everything with the new one. Minecraft, SWTOR, MHW, Tomb Raider
13:41 <Cepheid> Huh. Ensure both the old and new drivers are uninstalled then re-install the new ones. Also try running your display at 59hz through nVidia control panel.
13:41 <ADragonDreaming> I put the old one back in to see how things behaved, now Minecraft runs at 4 fps (I think it's running through CPU not GPU), Tomb Raider had frame drops in the first session I tried it in, then didn't in the second session. MHWorld has frame drops.
13:42 <ADragonDreaming> So I need to put new back in and try again.
13:44 <Cepheid> You have an integrated GPU? Then yeah it's likely the games are defaulting to it on occasion.
13:44 <Cepheid> I don't know how it's done, but you can tell the OS or game to choose one GPU over the other.
13:46 <ADragonDreaming> I don't think I do
13:46 <ADragonDreaming> That's the thing.
13:46 <ADragonDreaming> No integrated GPU shows in device manager
13:47 <ADragonDreaming> the only graphics processing that I would have without a video card installed would be the basic stuff you get from the motherboard itself.
13:48 <ADragonDreaming> I have no idea why Minecraft is running like potato when it ran fine before. But yeah, I need to reinstall the GTX and see what happens. Fortunately by now I have both sets of drivers on system, so.
13:49 <Cepheid> That there is the issue.
13:49 <Cepheid> You absolutely, positively cannot have AMD and nVidia drivers installed at the same time.
13:50 <Cepheid> You have to remove both as the installation of one has messed with the installation of the other. Then reboot, and install the nVidia drivers.
13:51 <ADragonDreaming> no, I had uninstalled the AMD drivers
13:51 <ADragonDreaming> I just have the installers on system
13:56 <Cepheid> Ah, kay.
13:57 * Cepheid lays down.
13:57 <Cepheid> No meds to knock me out today. Sedatives and booze don't go well together.
13:59 <Cepheid> As least kitty is here.
14:00 <ADragonDreaming> yes, please observe safe separation of alcohol and other substances
14:00 <ADragonDreaming> may you rest well

14:02 <Cepheid> I'm actually gonna stay up as late as possible. As a result I'll likely have sobered up before I sleep and avoid a hangover.
14:05 <Cepheid> And my dad interrupts Spitfire's rest upon me. Came home. Cat went to see what was up, and greet.

14:08 <Cepheid> Can't say disabled cats are unhappy or sad about their condition.
14:30 <ADragonDreaming> aye, that's why I said "rest" instaed of "Sleep" :D
14:31 <ADragonDreaming> for that cat, that looks like "born without legs" - that's an adolescent, I think. Still kind of a kitten.
14:32 <Cepheid> Yeah. Looks that way. There are no indications of scars on its body to indicate surgery.
14:53 <Lumindia_> https://soundcloud.com/sayyestogiygas/a-land-long-nuclear hecc

15:25 <Cepheid> Ali, Fallout 76 was released on Steam recently. Probably advertisement/celebration.
15:26 <Ali> I found out why
15:26 <Ali> Cause I own 76 on the bethesda launcher
15:26 <Ali> They're giving those poor saps the game on steam as well as older games
15:26 <Ali> And 76 isn't a game really worth celebrating
15:35 <ADragonDreaming> Yeah... I've been ignoring it.
16:15 <Ali> 4th of Spring year 1 and I caught gold quality fish. There is something wrong with this.
