00:19 <Cepheid> Whelp.

00:19 <Cepheid> I have to go get tested for COVID-19.

00:19 <Cepheid> Doctor wants me to get tested before he'll give me another prescription for my lungs.

00:19 <Cepheid> Especially since the one he WANTS to give me interacts badly with COVID-19, apparently.

00:39 <Schism> Wurp.  Also, yeah... good point.

00:41 <Cepheid> To be honest, I'm not surprised he asked me to get tested.

00:42 <Cepheid> Lately, been seeing more and more ads from Ontario health telling people to get tested if they have even the slightest suspicion that they have COVID-19, and it's been on my mind.  The only thing stopping me was that the last time I was told to go to the hospital to get tested, they didn't bother because I showed no other symptoms other than the coughing and such.

00:43 <Cepheid> Least this time, I have a doctor requesting it, so they kinda have to do it.

00:44 <Cepheid> Hum.  Grim Dawn update.  The Monster Infrequent Update.

00:44 <Cepheid> Basically, making monster infrequent items more interesting and useful.

00:51 <Cepheid> Apparently the voice actor for the "My cabbages!" guy from the Avatar series is willing to reprise his role in the live-action version, just to utter that one line.

01:04 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Fanfiction (Scouted): These Are the Days of Our Lives [ http://tinyurl.com/y7j9xs2v ]

01:12 <Cepheid> Now, I'm not much on betting.  But I'm willing to put $0.25 on "I have COVID-19, despite only going out twice in the last six months, for medical reasons.  On top of that, my parents inexplicably do not have COVID-19."

01:13 <Schism> You could all be asymptomatic.  (In your case, Cephy, admittedly that's becase COVID would probably take one look at you and raise the white flag.)

01:14 <Cepheid> That's why the doctor wants me checked despite no fever.

01:14 <Cepheid> I have a mix between a dry/wet cough, I'm having trouble breathing, with lots of wheezing, and I swear there are times when I inhale, and it feels like I didn't inhale any oxygen at all.

01:15 <Schism> Ughhh.  Then yeah.  Best be sure.

01:21 * Ali licks Schism nosie

01:22 <Cepheid> At this point, it wouldn't shock me if I did have COVID-19, but it's not affecting me seriously despite my chronic lung problems, because of the fact that I have chronic lung problems.  That is, my body is resistant to the symptoms.

01:22 <Cepheid> Not the infection, but rather, the symptoms.

01:24 <Cepheid> A man responsible for anti-bias training in California was shot with rubber bullets by police officers, rupturing one of the family jewels.

01:24 <Schism> Yup, and didn't he get shot in the face, too?

01:24 *** Joins: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-u30cht.dynamic.sonic.net)

01:24 <Cepheid> Doesn't say.

01:25 <Schism> Bear in mind, they almost certainly recognized him from those classes and probably hated learning some veneer of respectability.

01:26 <Schism> Or at least hated being told they had to.

01:26 <Cepheid> At this point, I'm not even sure what to think about police forces in the US.  Apparently, everything we've learned at some point was apparently complete, 100% lie.

01:27 <Schism> This is a powerful statement.  https://medium.com/@OfcrACab/confessions-of-a-former-bastard-cop-bb14d17bc759

01:27 <Cepheid> It's so bad that the TV show Cops has been permanently canceled.

01:28 <Cepheid> I wonder what Ed thinks of all of this.  He's ex-RCMP.

01:28 <Schism> I'd be sad except that COPS was one of the first reality TV shows.

01:28 <Schism> Oh, and also it was COPS.

01:28 <Cepheid> Indigenous, though.  So I'm... not 100% certain he was complicit in the behavior of police or even the RCMP these days.

01:29 <Cepheid> If anything, I imagine that's why he's ex-RCMP.

01:29 <Schism> Mmm.

01:29 <Cepheid> From what I understand, he was deployed mostly up north, in the indigenous communities.

01:30 <Cepheid> And while normally I'd be inclined to disbelieve how bad it can be up there, my sister has since verified many of his claims.

01:30 <Cepheid> There is definitely a significant problem up North.

01:30 * Schism nods.

01:32 <Cepheid> Domestic abuse seems to be the big one.  Alcoholism, the next one.  Education also seems to be a considerable problem, as many students simply don't care and eventually drop out.  There's a lot of vitriol in the students, too.  My sister has received a fair number of death threats.  That said, given the situation of resources up there?  I'm not shocked.

01:32 *** Joins: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net)

01:33 <Cepheid> First, and foremost, cost of food.  It's freakishly high.  A bag of potato chips is like, $16.

01:33 <Cepheid> Sweets, sugary foods in particular, are among the cheapest of the foods.  Fruits and vegetables tend to be very expensive, same with meat, fish, etc.

01:33 <Schism> Which of course leads to obesity and malnutrition.

01:33 <Cepheid> And what food does go up there tends to be...  Questionable, in terms of whether it's edible in the first place.

01:34 <Cepheid> Apparently, the companies that ship the food up north in the first place, send the stuff that didn't, or won't sell.  Either because it's just not popular down here, or it's expired.

01:34 <Cepheid> So a majority of the food stuff is either stale, expired, or not good for you.

01:35 <Cepheid> Next on the list is health.  Where my sister lives, there's no hospital.  Not even a proper clinic.  It's just a pharmacist who diagnoses and dispenses medication.

01:35 * Ali gives Cepheid a Twinkie from 1940, its well preserved

01:35 <Cepheid> Of which they don't have a lot of, because again, shipments being handled by companies that are arseholes.

01:35 * Schism offers Cepheid a flamin' hot pop tart.

01:36 <Cepheid> The nearest hospital is a flight away, in Iqaluit.

01:36 * Schism nods.

01:36 <Cepheid> So yeah.  It's bad up there.  But it's because they're mostly getting treated like *YAY*.

01:36 <Cepheid> And it's not entirely the government's fault.

01:37 <Cepheid> Some of it is businesses cutting corners and costs where they can, and sending garbage.

01:37 <Schism> But of course.  Garbage with an exorbitant markup.

01:38 <Cepheid> Yep.  Price gouging to the extreme.

01:38 <Cepheid> I can't imagine how much they tried to charge for hand sanitizer or toilet paper up there.

01:38 <Cepheid> I don't want to know, in fact.

01:39 <Schism> Best not... egh.

01:40 * Cepheid goes off topic for a moment. "10th anniversary of the Xenoblade series. Here's hoping there's an announcement that they are working on a Xenoblade X remake/sequel. I'd accept either."

01:42 <Schism> Still looking forward to what ATLUS will release on PC.

01:42 <Cepheid> Also, be careful about reading Toms Hardware regarding AMD.

01:42 <Schism> Oh?

01:42 <Cepheid> Apparently they're spreading stories that AMD CPUs are designed to burn themselves.

01:42 <Cepheid> Or something to that effect.

01:43 <Cepheid> Basically, modern CPUs and motherboards automatically overclock the CPUs by default based on information reported by the hardware, such as what it's idle and load temperatures are, and so on.  And I'm not talking about SpeedStep and the like.

01:43 <Cepheid> With this overclocking comes increased power draw and voltages.  Apparently Toms Hardware did a report, suggesting that this was killing the CPUs faster.

01:44 <Cepheid> According to specialists in the field though, it's actually not as bad as it's made out to be.

01:45 <Cepheid> It's a difference between seeing a 1% degradation over 10 years, versus a 1% degradation over 15 years.  And the CPUs are designed to handle it anyways, so it's not actually harming them.

01:46 <Cepheid> That said, it doesn't surprise me.  As of late, I've been seeing an inexplicable number of negative articles, videos and the like against AMD.  Almost too much to be a coincidence.

01:47 <Cepheid> This is despite reviews coming out showing that AMD, as of late, has been meeting or exceeding Intel in a lot of areas regarding performance and security.

01:47 <Schism> Starting to wonder.

01:47 <Schism> Think these articles might be in Intel's pockets?

01:48 <Cepheid> I'm on the fence about that being a possibility, but given Intel's... behavior as of late, I'm leaning towards "yes".

01:48 <Cepheid> Intel certainly has the money to influence.

01:50 <Schism> I'll admit that I've never been entirely fond of Intel ever since the 80486SX.

01:51 <Schism> Maybe that's a silly point to declare a grudge over, of course.

01:52 <Ali> Bleh, I'm getting into a nothing sounds fun on PC type of moodset.

01:52 * Finwe groans.

01:53 <Schism> Ali: Did you ever play a randomizer of LTTP?

01:53 <Finwe> 4:52 a.m. and I wake up?

01:53 <Ali> Schism, Don't own LTTP, Never played all the way thru LTTP

01:53 <Ali> So nah, I haven't done LTTP rando

01:53 * Finwe sleepily noms on Ali's tail.

01:53 <Cepheid> Myself, it's a mixed bag.  My first experiences with AMD were positive.  After that, switching back to Intel, I found there to be problems, especially in the multicore/SMT area.  Then after the whole fiasco with Spectre, Meltdown, and the like(Yes, I know some of this affects AMD), I've been less and less inclined to trust Intel.

01:53 <Ali> Cause that would be like, stupids.

01:53 <Schism> Oh.  You should perhaps play LTTP normally then!

01:53 <Ali> Again don't own it

01:54 <Cepheid> As each new vulnerability reported seems to affect specifically Intel baseline functionality of their CPUs, or special functions of their CPUs meant to be "secure."

01:54 <Schism> I suppose that's fair...

01:54 <Schism> Cepheid: Heh, yeah.  And one begins to wonder what Intel are doing with regards to testing of vulnerabilities.

01:54 <Cepheid> And then I learned of how Intel appears to ignore legal outcomes to purposely affect performance of non-Intel hardware with software, among other things..

01:55 <Cepheid> Turns out they have a compiler that intentionally generates worse code for any non-Intel hardware.

01:55 <Schism> Yyyyyup.

01:55 <Cepheid> As in, even if the CPU in question supports the same feature sets as the Intel CPU it's generating for, it'll still revert to worse-performance code intentionally.

01:55 <Schism> Well, Apple gets away with it.

01:55 <Cepheid> AMD actually won a court case over it, and despite the outcome, Intel still continues to do it.

01:56 <Cepheid> And for the record, it's not just AMD being affected.  ARM, POWER, and other platforms are also affected.

01:56 <Cepheid> But the biggest thing getting to me these days with Intel is their refusal to acknowledge a problem with Thunderbolt.

01:56 <Cepheid> That just soured anything I had for Intel.

01:57 <Schism> Aye, that security issue.  Urgh.

01:57 <Cepheid> Also, a new exploit was revealed today.

01:58 <Cepheid> Fortunately, it's not THAT bad, but it does affect the performance of some bits of software.  Specifically, those that utilize the cryptographically-secure hardware random number generator in Intel CPUs.

01:58 <Cepheid> The mitigation apparently drops the performance of these hardware random number generators to approximately 3% or lower of their full capacity.

01:59 <Cepheid> Might as well just drop back to software implementations.

02:00 <Schism> Whurf, yeah.

02:00 <Cepheid> Fortunately, it doesn't actually impact real-world performance THAT much.  It's just a benchmark seeing the drop, because it intentionally tests the functionality.

02:01 <Schism> Heh, Intel released keychain fobs with the 1994 Pentium processor embedded in plastic.

02:01 <Cepheid> The reason being is that very few people in security actually seem to trust RdRand, the functionality in question.

02:01 <Cepheid> Er, feature*

02:01 <Cepheid> The thing about software implementations of RNGs?  Especially open-source ones?  They can be trusted.

02:01 <Cepheid> Because people can investigate them.  And if problems arise, they can be fixed.

02:02 <Cepheid> Hardware implementations?  Noooooot so much.

02:02 <Schism> Ye olde 'weak seed'.

02:03 <Cepheid> Less that, and more concern about who was involved in the design and implementations.

02:03 <Schism> Ah, of course.

02:04 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #2187 [ http://tinyurl.com/yae4cqty ]

02:05 <Cepheid> I still find it hilarious that Intel keeps pushing their SGX Enclaves.

02:05 <Cepheid> When the damned things are riddled with holes.

02:08 <Cepheid> From what I understand, they're basically smaller versions of the concept of memory encryption.  They're chunks of encrypted instruction and data memory, practically small programs unto themselves, that can only be read and written by the enclave itself.  Not even higher-privilege processes(Kernel, for example), can read or write into them.

02:11 <Cepheid> The way it works is that you provide information to the CPU, request that it execute the enclave, which the CPU decrypts on the fly with enclave-specific data inside the CPU that cannot be accessed by any process, and then when it's done running, it returns the output.

02:12 <Cepheid> Problem is, there's multiple ways to get data from it.

02:12 <Cepheid> The use cases are basically security, DRM, and the like.  You recall the Denuvo anti-tamper thing with DOOM Eternal?

02:12 <Cepheid> That would have been better implemented using Intel SGX Enclaves, probably.

02:13 <Schism> Vaguely.  And aha.

02:15 <Cepheid> I think, anyways.

02:16 <Cepheid> I believe the issue with the Denuvo anti-tamper was that it was implemented in kernel mode, and thus, had access to the entirety of system RAM more or less, making it a prime target for malicious code.

02:16 <Cepheid> I'm not sure what enclaves have access to.  In fact, I kinda want to research them, now.

02:17 <Cepheid> The concept sounds neat.

02:18 <Cepheid> I mean yeah, it's Intel tech, and suspect, but...

02:20 <Schism> Eh, if nothing else it can give you ideas.

02:20 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com)

02:25 <Cepheid> I have no idea what kind of ideas I could get from it, to be honest.  Security is not my area of expertise.

02:25 <Cepheid> Especially so since it is heavily reliant on math that isn't basic algebra and linear algebra, which area areas I excel in.

02:26 <Cepheid> The rest?  Eheheh.  I've got the mathematical aptitude in other areas equivalent to a grade 12 Ontario student.

02:29 <Schism> Heh.  "I'm Bretnon Falstoph Perius Tallifens Montblanc..." "My goodness, your name weighs more than you do."

02:31 <Cepheid> I'm under the impression that secure computing would not actually solve the problem Denuvo anti-tamper was trying to resolve.  So I rescind my "Better implemented using Intel SGX Enclaves, probably" statement.

02:34 <Cepheid> The key problem with cheating in multiplayer video games is the integrity of the memory on the client side.  That is, knowing at each tick of the game, whether or not the memory has been modified by the game, or an outside application.

02:34 <Cepheid> And there's no easy solution to it, either.

02:37 <Cepheid> You could try, for example, to allocate a chunk of memory for storing important bits of information that, if modified externally, would give the player an advantage, and then checksum it and verify the checksum on a regular basis, but that won't resolve the problem.  Applications can be designed to re-calculate the checksum, fooling the game into thinking the memory is valid.

02:39 <Schism> Or for that matter, determining when the next check will be and swapping that allocated memory data.

02:40 <Cepheid> Encrypting memory within a user-level process(The game's process, for example) wouldn't work either.  The encryption/decryption keys have to be stored somewhere inaccessible to other user-level processes.  Usually that's kernel level code.  Or specially crafted assembler which would then only work on one CPU type, among other issues.

02:41 <Schism> And granting access to kernel-level data is Not A Good Idea.

02:41 <Cepheid> In the case of assembler, it would involve setting up CPU registers to hold the relevant keys, and ensuring they are never written back to cache or RAM.

02:42 <Cepheid> But in doing that, the entire calling mechanism of the software has to change, which itself presents allllll sorts of problems.

02:42 <Cepheid> We already have enough problems with stdcall, fastcall, and the like.

02:47 <Cepheid> The most secure method I can think of would actually pretty much destroy multiplayer gaming.

02:48 <Cepheid> At least, for action-heavy games like shooters.  MOBAs and MMOs would, presumably, be fine.

02:49 <Cepheid> Though it'd put considerable strain on the servers.

02:49 <Cepheid> It also wouldn't prevent botting.

02:55 <Cepheid> You basically have to assume the client cannot be trusted, and has to be explicitly told what it can and cannot see at every game step.  With latencies in the range of anywhere from 20ms to upwards of 150ms for Internet games, this isn't viable.  Prediction algorithms can be used to help resolve this, but it's not a perfect solution.  It'd only work for LAN games, really.

02:55 <Cepheid> Plus, for fast-paced games, that latency would create obvious and apparent delays in inputs.

02:57 <Cepheid> I'm not even sure hardware memory encryption would help.  The whole "If I put in the wrong numbers, will I get the correct results?" thing.

02:58 <Schism> "You have nine cats?" "I have eight cats." "I count nine." "I'll check the ninth for a chip later."

02:58 <Schism> Also, heh.  Surprisingly, sometimes...

03:01 <Cepheid> I am probably never gonna deal in making competitive games, to be honest.

03:01 <Cepheid> Too much of a hassle with respect to the security part.

03:01 <Cepheid> Either that, or I hire someone explicitly trained in dealing with security to help me root out any problems in the multiplayer that might be used for players gaining advantages.

03:02 * Cepheid decides to spend tonight researching some new topics that are useful in software development. Like, legitimately useful topics. Such as continuous integration, testing frameworks and the like.

03:16 <Cepheid> Not complaining.  Been running into issues with that in C# for my game, so..

03:59 <Cepheid> The current one we have is an in-ear thermometer.  And as of late, it's been reporting wildly ridiculous results.  In fact, let's go see what it's saying right now!

04:00 * Schism listens to 'Oblivion' on repeat.

04:02 <Cepheid> 99.3 in right ear.  99.7 in left ear.  Averages to 99.5.

04:03 <Schism> Still undeniably high.

04:04 <Cepheid> Not high enough to be considered a symptom of COVID-19 though.  Last I heard, hospitals only considered it to be a fever if I was above, what?  100.4?

04:13 <Schism> Just not with capsaicin.

04:14 * Ali dun't like spicy that's for sure.

04:14 <Schism> Just garlic and other things.

04:16 <Cepheid> ... Ow.  I just had a sense of deja vu.  I was thinking back on that extra little maze in EON, the one with the annoying bugs.  For some reason, I seem to have an image of what is at the end of that maze in my head, despite not having completed the maze yet.  I'm only halfway through it due to the bugs.

04:16 <Schism> Been there.  An inkling which turns out to be suspiciously correct.

04:19 <Cepheid> I think it may be influence from the appearance of the bugs in question.  They're declared as "moths" but look more like a wasp or hornet, without the patterning.  Long story short, I'm expecting a larger version, with an abdomen of a queen bee, and more sets of wings.  I fully expect it to be protected by two weak versions of the moths.

04:20 <Schism> Add a bit of microsleep and that could do it.

04:20 <Cepheid> Of course getting to it is half of the problem.

04:21 <Cepheid> Danged moths hit like trucks, and ignore defensive boosts, if not defense outright.  They also seem to ignore lines.

04:21 <Cepheid> Four hits, randomly targeted.  Deals minimum 250 damage.  If it hits.  It seems to be wildly variable in hit chance.

04:22 <Cepheid> Consider that no one in the guild or party has more than 200 HP...

04:22 <Cepheid> Basically, anyone hit, dies.  No questions asked.

04:24 <Cepheid> To make matters worse, they also confuse, and seem to move faster than a majority of the party.  And they resist binding of the part that the attack relies on.  Thus far, the only way around them is through surprise attacks, reducing combat chance, or using Boost Breaks to alpha-strike them from the start of the battle.  And those are limited.

04:29 <Cepheid> Logic would suggest, based on all this, that "I am not meant to be here yet." except...

04:31 <Cepheid> There is story associated with it, and the moths drop items that give access to gear level-appropriate for the current dungeon.

04:31 <Cepheid> In this case, a shield.  Does eff-all for the damage they dish out.

04:36 * Schism decides to make up a bowl of tomato soup. Big bowl. With cheese.

04:39 * Cepheid adds Sriracha sauce, Tabasco sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Extreme Bean brine, and Mexican Green Sauce.

04:42 <Schism> Definitely not the worst combination.

04:43 <Cepheid> It's the usual mix I make.

04:43 * Cepheid will be right back.

04:45 <Ali> Just reading that makes my tongue hurt

04:49 <Schism> It's a bit much for a soup.  A drink, sure!

04:51 <Cepheid> Guh...  If this gets any worse than it already is, I may just wake up my dad and go to the hospital ASAP.

04:52 <Schism> If it does, please do, but let us know.

04:52 <Cepheid> When I lay down, it gets incredibly hard to breathe without wheezing or coughing, and it feels like my windpipe is closing up.  Like I'm having an allergic reaction to something.

04:52 <Schism> What's your blood sugar at?

04:53 <Schism> I've encountered the same result with sore muscles and difficulty breathing with DKA.  Exhaustion, too.

04:55 <Schism> I'm afraid, though, that I need to get at least four hours of sleep or else I'm going to be completely useless.

04:55 <Cepheid> Fine.  Slightly elevated, but that's due to having a glass of apple juice.

04:56 <Schism> Most likely.  Anyway... should sleep now, but please let us know if you head to the hospital.

04:56 <Cepheid> https://gfycat.com/disgustingamusingdingo

04:58 <Cepheid> I'll be headed there regardless.  Gotta go tomorrow.  Doctor's orders to get tested.  But yes, I'll keep you up to date if my condition worsens.  As it is, another nasal rinse seems to have helped a bit.

06:21 <Cepheid> Triptan + Seroquel = Not a good idea.

06:21 <Cepheid> Not sure why.

06:22 <Cepheid> I'm okay, but I feel weird.

06:24 <ConfusionRift> ...

06:24 <ConfusionRift> Feel weird?

06:24 <ConfusionRift> Like... weird how?

06:27 <Cepheid> Skin is crawling, mostly.

06:27 <ConfusionRift> Hmmm.

06:27 <Cepheid> It's going away.

06:29 <Cepheid> Truth told it could have also been from the headache I took the triptan for.  Triptans are prescribed for migraines, which themselves usually have auras involved, which themselves are usually things like hallucinations, sensitivity to light, nausea, crawling skin, etc.

06:30 <ConfusionRift> It's the Triptan. Skin tingling is a side effect of it.

06:30 <Cepheid> Ah.

06:30 <Cepheid> Well, like I said it's going away now, so it's moot.

06:30 <Cepheid> Easier to deal with than the headache at least.

06:31 <Cepheid> Now I just need to get some sleep since I gotta drop by the hospital tomorrow.

06:33 <ConfusionRift> Thought would be the case, especially when I read that is has similar chemical effects to serotonin, which is what one's body releases to ease and calm the nerves. If one's body catches hints of going to sleep, one's brain sometimes triggers certain reactions to check one's really asleep. They vary from itching, attempts to open one's eyes, to tingle on one's skin.

06:36 <Cepheid> Ah.

06:36 <Cepheid> And hmm, not the hosp

06:36 <Cepheid> Hospital, it seems

06:36 <Cepheid> There are centers dedicated to testing that I can go to instead.

06:38 <Cepheid> I'm mostly fine by the way, aside from the breathing problems.  Doc just wants me to get tested for COVID before prescribing a new medication for my breathing troubles, due to interactions.  Pretty sure I don't have it, but yeah.

06:39 <ConfusionRift> Aah, i see.

06:42 <Cepheid> The only reason I need to sleep is so that I can be awake to go in.  Danged sleeping cycle is all messed up. o3o

06:43 <ConfusionRift> Understandable, especially with things right now.

06:45 <Cepheid> Not stress.  All the breathing troubles, heh.

06:46 <ConfusionRift> Still, it really sucks.

06:47 <Cepheid> It does, yeah.

09:04 <Cepheid> Geezus.  What did you do?

09:09 <ConfusionRift> "I smell of solvent-" = I was cleaning some stuff, and the nitro solvent never really comes off easily. "-I should wash up-" = Still no A/C, still hot as (bleep). "-and forgot I had a burger there." = They gave me a burger really early in the day. Was too tired to eat it, and they didn't want others to eat it so I couldn't put it in the fridge.

11:04 <ConfusionRift> ...for a quarter?

11:04 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Morning Discussion #1958 [ http://tinyurl.com/y8xyvhkj ]

11:05 <Cepheid> Yerp.  I placed that bet.

11:08 <Cepheid> http://extrafabulouscomics.com/comic/244s/ ... That last one, man.

11:12 <Cepheid> You know, I wish more developers would publish the lyrics they use for their music, regardless of whether or not the lyrics are just faux latin or meaningless.

11:14 <Cepheid> It'd be especially nice to verify whether or not the lyrics to the final boss track of Xenoblade are in fact reversed lyrics.

11:14 * ConfusionRift checks for lyrics.

11:15 <ConfusionRift> [Music starts] [Starts solo] (Gibberish) [Song ends]

11:15 <Cepheid> There are none, as far as I know.  And a video claims that the lyrics are actually reversed, but given the whole "reversed lyrics" in the past thing..

11:16 <ConfusionRift> Xenoblade... what?

11:16 <Cepheid> "Xenoblade Save Us"

11:16 <Cepheid> Among other things.

11:16 <Cepheid> The fact that "Xenoblade" is explicitly heard lends some credence to the theory.

11:18 <Cepheid> The eponymous Xenoblade, the Monado, actually has a particularly important trait about it that is not explicitly explained until literally in the middle of, and after the final battle.

11:19 <Cepheid> 'Cause of the re-release of the game though, I won't really cover it, for purposes of people wanting to play the game.

11:22 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhLfLUtBZA4

11:22 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about MtB:RH - 17 - Battle Vs Lord Blazer

11:23 <ConfusionRift> Can't find anything. Oh well.

11:24 * Cepheid just decides to poke Monolith's twitter account and straight up ask.

11:24 <ConfusionRift> Half the sites are with lyrics inverted, others posted nothing, or just theory sites.

11:28 <ConfusionRift> In other words, non-lyrics. :P

11:28 <Cepheid> More or less.

11:28 <Cepheid> But the point is, vocally, there is still something there.  And lyrics *DO* have to be written for it.

11:29 <Cepheid> It'd be interesting to know what they were, even if it's complete non-sense and just a collection of syllables.

11:33 <Cepheid> Heh.

11:34 <Schism> Remember that Yuki Kajiura writes her songs in a conlang which sounds realistic but which she will never, ever share.

11:34 <Cepheid> Lyrics in most cases are meaningless to me.  Mostly because I can't comprehend them, because of the unusual intonations to match music.

11:35 <Cepheid> Perhaps, Schism, but it doesn't look like Yuki provided music for Xenoblade. :P

11:35 <Cepheid> Just Xenosaga II and III.

11:36 <Schism> Eh, that was just an example.

11:36 <ConfusionRift> That, sir, is why I prefer instrumental music, or electronic stuff sans lyrics. UNLESS said lyrics are part of the rhythm. Otherwise, pffftttt.

11:36 <Cepheid> Ah.

11:37 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.  In this case, the lyrics are likely just another instrument.  Same with EOV's final boss tracks.

11:37 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

11:37 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Etrian Odyssey V - Music: Unrest - Lord of the Beyond

11:38 <Cepheid> Too bad the first final boss was so easily destroyed.  Most people won't hear the full theme.

11:38 <Cepheid> Turns out you can kill him in 3 turns easy peasy.

11:39 <Cepheid> Three necromancers.  Three phantoms created from worms down on the fourth stratum.  Then use a certain ability, which trades the phantom's existence for damage against a target, equal to the phantom's HP.  Phantoms made from the worms have 9,999 HP.

11:39 <Cepheid> The boss has 25,000 HP.

11:40 <Cepheid> Actually, 3 necromancers will kill it in one turn.

11:40 <Cepheid> I'm thinking 1 necromancer.

11:41 <Cepheid> Honestly, probably works against the Star Devourer too, but I'm unwilling to test due to the extreme difficulty.

11:41 <Cepheid> Once you have acquired the phantoms, you cannot, under any circumstances, leave the dungeon.  And if they die somehow, you have to go back and make new ones.
