07:33 <ConfusionRift> They were finalizing the vents and AC/C work, and had me standing outside my room for 3 hours, which point was basically pointless to go to sleep before work... so I had to call in.

07:39 <ConfusionRift> Ooooh. So the day went by.

08:11 <ConfusionRift> Aren't those lovely? "Take a tablet, then do a handstand, sing The Pledge of Allegiance, balance a baby boy of exactly 2.3 months on your left foot, make a strawberry shake with your right hand, spin on a record at 3/4 speed, then take a second tablet."

08:11 <ConfusionRift> "You will die if you fail. You will know if you do."

08:12 <Cepheid> Heh.

08:13 <Cepheid> In other news...  Borderlands 3.  I don't want to kill the twins because they are evil.  I want to kill them because they are annoying.  It's like wanting to kill PewDiePie.

08:14 * ConfusionRift patpats Cepheid. "That was my exact drive."

08:14 <Cepheid> Heh.

08:14 <Cepheid> "That monstrosity is a skrakk.  Fix nature's mistake and kill it for me."

08:15 <ConfusionRift> Aside from being actually a threat to anything that's not nailed down, they are extremely... annooooyiiing. So dealing with them had an extra push.

08:16 <Cepheid> I think that was the goal with them.

08:16 <ConfusionRift> Also, the Skrakk was kinda one of the vault hunter's fault. (shrugs)

08:16 <Cepheid> Yeah that's what I thought.  I remember making that thing.

08:17 <ConfusionRift> Actually... that would mean that they reproduced... oh no.

08:17 <Cepheid> Yeah.

08:17 <ConfusionRift> We screwed up the ecosystem.

08:17 <Cepheid> Given the ecosystem of Pandora, that isn't a problem.

08:18 <ConfusionRift> True. Pandora is already known for being an absolute mess.

08:18 <Cepheid> It's full of things that simply should not exist.

08:19 <Cepheid> Probably made worse by that huge gaping wound of Eridium.

08:19 <Cepheid> Pandora is one of the few planets that would benefit from exterminatus.

08:21 <ConfusionRift> "But... Pandora is our home!" | You guys hate your home! | "Hush, you..." (crosses arms) "I guess!"

08:22 <Cepheid> Everything is hostile to everything else.  The planet is mostly barren, and apparently comprised of large quantities of a possibly radioactive material.  It has numerous god-tier monstrosities living upon it.  Several ancient vaults, some containing eldritch nightmares on it.

08:23 <Cepheid> Assuming the Gaia concept is real, that is, planets are living, sentient things?  Exterminatus would likely IMPROVE Pandora.

08:24 <ConfusionRift> I think the only reason why they haven't really just detonated it, is because to the commerce... it has SOME inherent value.

08:25 <ConfusionRift> You got a bunch of morons who buy anything that has a trigger, it's the best testbed for extracurricular devastation testing, and other companies just don't care about it and use it as a foothold or port.

08:25 <Cepheid> Yep.

08:26 <ConfusionRift> And then there's the vaults...

08:26 <ConfusionRift> Which has driven research and development absolutely nuts.

08:28 <Cepheid> Quite literally.

08:28 <ConfusionRift> Right... Tannis...

08:28 <ConfusionRift> And some others

08:30 <Cepheid> Tannis, Jack.

08:30 <Cepheid> Jack was driven insane by a vault directly.

08:34 <ConfusionRift> To the point of forcing his daughter to do things she didn't want to.

08:34 <ConfusionRift> And basically isolate her from the world.

08:36 <Cepheid> Though, I wonder when exactly that occurred.  Angel existed in Borderlands 1, but Jack was driven insane in TPS, and Angel is dealt with in 2.  On assuming the Tales series explains that.

08:42 <ConfusionRift> I think The Tales does delve a bit on that, since it goes through the point when before and after Jack's death.

08:42 <ConfusionRift> Never caught my interest, so I don't know for sure.

09:07 <Cepheid> "Are you cold, son?" *is dressed in heavy-duty pajamas, a sweater coat rated for -30C, and wearing socks.* "A bit."

09:08 * PrincessRainbows boops ConfusionRift with her plushie and makes grabby hooves

09:14 * ConfusionRift grabbies PrincessRainbows, then pets.

09:17 * PrincessRainbows makes silly filly noises and reboops the ConfusionRift with a stick drawing of him

09:23 * ConfusionRift looks at PrincessRainbows' drawing. "Nice, very nice." :P

09:26 <Cepheid> Bah...  There is a track I once listened too, but it is increasingly hard to find these days.

09:26 * PrincessRainbows tries to go sleepy again

09:26 <Cepheid> The arranged version of Integral Body and Imperfect Soul from Star Ocean 2.

09:41 <Cepheid> So, fun bit.  One detail about my OC is that I am trying to figure out is what kinds of materials would be required for a Dyson sphere of approximately 5 meters in diameter, surrounding a miniature Class G star.  Along with it's electrical and heat output.

09:48 <Cepheid> Photons would be handled by solar panels.  The heat however...  I would need a material dense enough to collect all possible radiation.  And the heat would be converted to mechanical energy, that drives turbines or something similar for generation of electricity.  Said material would also have to act as a massive heatsink to the panels, or they would melt.  Finally, heat regulation of some sort would be needed.  Presuming that not

09:57 <Cepheid> Or I could just straight up make it a thermoelectric generator.  It's a star in a pocket dimension.  It's a near-0K void with a radiant star in the center.  Dyson Sphere could be one big thermoelectric generator, with the interior being superheated by the star, and the exterior acting as the cold side.

09:58 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-n3j093.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)

09:58 <Cepheid> With the interior between both sides being a material that conducts electricity through temperature gradients.

10:00 <Cepheid> All that would remain is to figure out whether I want to use real-world materials, or design my own.  I'm not sure if there are materials known to mankind that could survive being heated up by 100% of a stars radiant energy though.  Assuming that's even a problem.

10:05 <Cepheid> That said, there us a problem with the exterior being a void.  It won't take in any heat.  Heat is molecules vibrating.  A void would have nothing in it to vibrate.  Heat transfer isn't possible towards it.

10:08 <Cepheid> Ah, no, I'm wrong.  Radiation still works in a total vacuum.

10:09 <Lumindia> I mean, light is just radiation

10:09 * Lumindia shrug

10:10 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

10:14 *** Quits: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)

10:17 <Cepheid> Interior surface has to be able to absorb all radiant energy, and thus survive extreme temperatures.  Exterior needs to have high emissivity, while simultaneously remaining supercooled, relative to the interior.  The material between the layers needs to be able to generate thermoelectric energy, while also surviving extreme temperatures.

10:20 <Cepheid> First step then would be to determine the energy output of a miniaturized class G star.  Then figure out how much that would heat up a surface made of some high, thermally-conductive surface.

10:27 <Cepheid> Apparently the solar constant is 1.361 kilowatts/square meter at a distance of 1 AU from the sun.

10:42 <Cepheid> According to the Stefan-Boltzman Law, a star of 10 meter radius, at 6000K, as a perfect black body, would emit 93GW of power.  Sweet merciful-

10:44 <Cepheid> !link https://youtu.be/SRmqhI5K_hI

10:44 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

10:44 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about 『世界樹の迷宮シリーズ10周年記念特番』ライブメドレー - Etrian Odyssey 10th Anniversary Live Medley-

10:45 <Cepheid> For those wondering why all the stellar math.  Introspection seems to induce the visual that my existence is likened to that of a sma unstable star.

10:45 <Cepheid> Small*

11:06 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Morning Discussion #1961 [ http://tinyurl.com/ybspmxqg ]

11:16 <Cepheid> ...  Did I really just waste a couple of hours trying to create a Dyson Sphere that won't melt in the presence of a 10-meter radius black body with a surface temperature of 6000K?

11:17 * ConfusionRift slowly nods. "I really couldn't follow."

11:25 <Cepheid> Turns out it is possible with conventional materials, and of course the scifi aspect of a pocket dimension and, ye know, the improbability of a 10-meter radius star..

11:26 <Cepheid> However, thermoelectric energy generation is not very efficient.  6-8% with current tech.

11:28 <Cepheid> So, approximately 6.51GW.

11:28 <Cepheid> Prolly enough to power high-energy weapons.

11:32 <Cepheid> https://i.redd.it/0a2ds89nbk451.png

11:36 <ConfusionRift> *nom*

11:38 <ConfusionRift> Also... it's kinda on sci-fi territory, so the requirements in power for the such would vary greatly. Also, yeah, thermoelectrical energy production is very much inefficient, even with newer approaches.

11:40 <ConfusionRift> Now that I see it, maybe they would use this in some way for energy weapons and a module that could recycle some of the spent energy.

11:44 <Cepheid> That would basically be the best use.  Where thermal energy builds up due to continuous use, heatsink that *yay* away, but at the same time, run it through a thermoelectric generator to recoup some of the lost energy.

11:46 <Cepheid> Doubt it'd be that useful though, unless it was like, large scale weaponry.

11:48 <ConfusionRift> Well, the thought was more that an energy weapon of sorts would produce heat regularly, since the use of energy would normally produce heat. That could either be by energy production, or energy use. So even if it's minimal, it would provide some longevity. Kind of like an alternator on a car in some way.

11:52 * PrincessRainbows flops around

11:56 * PrincessRainbows ends up flopping on ConfusionRift and sighing

11:57 * ConfusionRift patpats PrincessRainbows. He's about to crash himself.

11:57 <Cepheid> Based on some research, a laser weapon powered by a 6GW power source would be destructive as all hell.

11:57 <PrincessRainbows> Gl

11:58 <Cepheid> 30kW is apparently enough to destroy small objects.

11:59 <ConfusionRift> Yep. All that energy is released at once, so...

12:01 <Cepheid> Might have to reduce the source of power.  I don't want starbase-level weaponry on the character.

12:02 <Cepheid> That, or I leave it, but limit the equipment via heat and other risks.

12:04 * ConfusionRift was reminded of an energy weapon he was thinking of long ago. "Heh."

22:18 <Schism> Hey.  Hey Lumindia.  Are you looking forward to the remastering of Hoshi wo Miru Hito for the Switch?

22:21 <Lumindia> OH THAT THING! I saw them play that at GDQ

22:21 <Lumindia> Oh lord whjy is THAT getting a remaeke?

22:22 <Schism> I have no idea, but it's going to be amazing.

22:22 <Lumindia> or rather, a re-release

22:25 <Ali> I want them to either Remaster Mystical Ninja 64 or make a new one.

22:25 *** Angeline is now known as Angie

22:36 <Lumindia> Do they have ANY IDEA how much money people would throw at them if we got an official Mother 3 release in EN?

22:37 <Schism> Clearly they do not.
