04:07 <Cepheid> https://v.redd.it/uld3366ikt751

04:09 <Schism> Mods, how is that not /aww.

04:10 <Schism> Cepheid, would you mind terribly if I talked your ear off for a few moments in PM?

04:11 <Cepheid> I'm about to head to sleep, and thus drugged up.  Can't guarantee I can provide reasonable responses.

04:11 <Schism> No, that's okay.  It's not time-sensitive, and can hold until tomorrow night.

04:13 <Schism> I can't say that I'm in an entirely sensible state either, though... perhaps more so than typically.

04:13 <Cepheid> Or tomorrow in general.  I should be up by noon.  Though I do have to stop by a hospital though.

04:13 <Schism> I'm working from 2:30-11, so that kind of puts the kibosh on most of the day.

04:13 <Schism> We'll see, though.

04:15 <Cepheid> I'll keep it in mind then, and hold off on the drugs tomorrow evening.

04:17 <Schism> If you need them, go ahead.  Mostly, a great many things clicked.  And I'm starting to think that a very big part of my continued depression may have an obvious factor, one which you might have suspected of me ahead of time.

04:17 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Newbie Artist Training Grounds X: Day 27 [ http://tinyurl.com/y75r9tsn ]

04:17 <Schism> And if you're going to say 'you never sounded very depressed', I will bite you.  :P

04:20 <Cepheid> You said it, not me. :P

04:21 <Cepheid> Sorry I can't be of more help right now though.  Depression thinking sucks.

04:22 <Schism> That's all right.  I think that having an idea of what it is will be helpful.  What to do about it... I don't have a path yet.  Need to speak with a psychiatrist.  And, following that... a few others.

04:23 * Ali rolls around, trying to understand War 40k rules can be both interesting and mass confusion at the same time.

04:23 * PrincessRainbows rolls around too

04:23 <Schism> Most interesting rulesets try to be both.

04:24 <Ali> Well they're trying to stop the conga line in 40k

04:24 <Schism> Cepheid: There is, admittedly, a significant concern therewith.  But... I know that my family is supportive if it happens to be accurate.

04:24 <Ali> Were a unit can just stretch itself across the entire board, maintain coherency, and get all the sweet juicy abusive aura's it can get.

04:24 <Schism> MOST of them, anyway...

04:25 <Schism> Ali: Pffff.  What, without being part of Nergle's crowd?  

04:25 <Ali> I dunno

04:25 <Ali> I play Nids

04:25 <Ali> What are auras?

04:26 <Schism> I imagine just effects like motivation, morale, pestilence, plague, bloodlust, etc.

04:26 <Ali> No, more like rerolls, abusive save mechanics

04:26 <Schism> Oh.  Sheesh.

04:26 <Ali> Ha ha I'm a character so you can't shoot me

04:26 <Ali> Like here's the difference between Nid Aura's and Space Mahreens

04:27 <Cepheid> Ah.  I suspect I know what's up.  And yeah, step one is speaking to a specialist.  Ask your doctor for a referral now rather than later.  Getting ahold of a psychiatrist is increasingly difficult in Ontario, and will take forever and an infinity.

04:27 <Ali> Nid Auras ONLY effect a certain model type, like Genestealers, Warriors, Carnifex, and its only a +1 to hit aura

04:27 <Schism> I have resources, thankfully, being in the middle of KW... I think.

04:27 <Ali> While Joe Shmuck of the Speece Mehreens

04:28 <Ali> Gets to re roll all hits, all wounds, has a 2+ Save, hits on 2+, and has a 4+ invul save, if not 3+

04:28 <Ali> For half the points of any Tyranid MC

04:28 <Ali> And is a character so you can't pick on him

04:29 * Schism eyebrows. "Gee. That's not broken at aaaaaalll."

04:29 <Ali> Oh it gets worse

04:29 <Ali> He can be equiped with a power fist, that turns his crappy 4 STR to 8

04:29 <Schism> How many points?

04:29 <Ali> I think its under 100 points

04:29 <Schism> Well, we knew that GW were on the downslide.  Sheesh.

04:29 <Ali> While a vanilla Hive Tyrant is 140+

04:30 <Ali> Again, this is Space Marines, GW's baby, it can do no wrong

04:30 <Ali> Then they doubled it up with two more BS rules

04:30 <Ali> One is that any time a SM is charged, IS charged, or Heroicly Intervenes, it gets +1 attack

04:30 <Ali> Then SM has a Doctrine, that by at least turn 4 must be active

04:31 <Ali> That gives ALL MAHREENS +1 attack

04:31 <Ali> So for nothing invested or points spent

04:31 <Ali> Your basic dork gets 3 attacks base after turn 4, +1 if they have a chainsword

04:31 <Schism> Cepheid: I'm going to have to chat with my endo ... and my GP.  If it does turn out to be what we think, then I think it might expand my lifespan quite a while... if only due to a lack of self-destructive actions.

04:32 <Schism> Ali: Oh, for heavens' sake.

04:32 <Ali> Which reroll hits and wounds cause that's fair right

04:32 <Ali> All for 12 points

04:32 <Ali> That's the same price as 3 Termagants

04:32 <Ali> WHat do gants get

04:32 <Ali> 1 attack base

04:32 <Ali> A single S4 shot at 12"

04:32 <Ali> Hits on 4's and saves on 6's

04:33 <Schism> Wasn't the whole idea of the Space Marine that they were all het up about tactics and strategy and whatnot, and not throwing a dual-chainsword wielding berserker into a hex so that they could go 'waauuuugh' and kill everything?

04:33 <Ali> Schism, GW screwed up so bad they had to NERF SM

04:33 * Schism facepalms.

04:33 <Ali> But if the virus didn't shut things down like it did, they probably would've had to nerf them again due to some of this crap

04:34 <Ali> I mean 3-4 attacks on your vanilla models is bullcrap for 12 points

04:35 <Ali> But like I said, those 2 extra attacks give smash captains so many attacks, and the -1 to hit for the fist is negated due to all the free rerolls

04:35 <Schism> Yeah, eugh.

04:35 <Ali> Pulling up Battlescribe here, give me a moment

04:35 <Jackie> I feel in despair that no one asked me to draw for them

04:36 <ADragonDreaming> What kinds of things do you want to draw?

04:38 <Ali> So Smash Captain gets 6 attacks once the assualt doctrine is active

04:39 * PrincessRainbows boops Ali with her snoot and bleps

04:39 <Cepheid> I forgot to take all my meds today.

05:30 <ConfusionRift> Greetings, individual. :P

05:30 <Tirek> https://i.imgur.com/h8AfYjO.png

05:30 <Schism> By all means, I'm all eyes.

05:30 <Tirek> wip.

05:31 * Schism turns into an Ophanim.

05:31 <Tirek> Like Master Yi and his 7 eyes, I presume.

05:31 <Tirek> Okay, nevermind.

05:31 <Schism> Hmm, very nice!

05:32 <Tirek> I'm still trying to do the background, but I think I'm mostly done with the character. Friend into ratchet and clank has a lombax oc, and that's what this is supposed to be.

05:32 <Schism> He seems a brave fellow.

05:33 <Schism> Er, if he.  (Female lombax typically don't have tails.)

05:33 <Tirek> Not that you have much in the means to tell, but this is a lady cat creature thing

05:33 <Tirek> I think that's what a lombax is, I never actually touched any of the ratchet and clank games.

05:34 <Schism> Hm, perhaps not.

05:34 <Schism> Either way, brave she is.

05:35 <Tirek> In other news, I bought a brewer's kit and I'm making blueberry mead in my basement

05:35 <Schism> Ah!  Mead is always a pleasure.

05:35 <Tirek> Oh, right, uh

05:35 <Tirek> The new ratchet and clank trailer has a girl lombax with a tail, so, I guess that's not canon anymore?

05:36 <ConfusionRift> It's been a while. And it's looking nice. It do kinda get that R&C vibe from it, rail grinding in some way. Also, is that brown thing on the upper sorta right supposed to be kinda like open skies?

05:36 <Schism> Tirek: That's a point of... some interest.

05:37 <ConfusionRift> I don't think it ever was canon. Technically, Ratchet was known as the only Lombax alive. That was till Crack in Time, which... we were kinda left with the same.

05:38 <ConfusionRift> Ah, okay. Don't know why... but I see a face. :P

05:38 <Tirek> Presume the darker parts of the sky are nostrils or something. That's the only way I see the face.

05:39 <ConfusionRift> I see one eye, a big nose, and what looks like a mouth with fangs.

05:39 <Tirek> Hmm.

05:40 <Tirek> I think I see it now

05:40 * PrincessRainbows boops ConfusionRift with her snoot and makes grabby hooves

05:40 * ConfusionRift shakes his head. "I'm not doing too well, as you can see."

05:40 <Tirek> Yeah, sure, that's that pollution elemental creature from Fern Gully

05:40 * ConfusionRift grabbies PrincessRainbows, then pets.

05:40 <Tirek> Toxic love.

05:40 <ConfusionRift> HAAAhahaaaaa!

05:41 <ConfusionRift> That song launched it off the park, at least for me.

05:44 <Tirek> I need to rewatch that movie at some point.

05:44 * PrincessRainbows hugs ConfusionRift and makes happy little filly noises

05:45 <Schism> One of Tim Curry's best, to be certain.

05:45 <Tirek> Oh, certainly.

05:45 <Schism> Though I've always found his performance in Clue to be superior to most of his musicals.

05:45 <Schism> (Yes, I know, unpopular opinion, fite me later.)

05:55 <Tirek> Not familiar with his performance in clue

05:56 <Schism> He was Wadsworth, the butler, and chewed the scenery magnificently.

06:12 * ConfusionRift rolls around.

06:13 * Schism rolls too. "Wargh. Not sure what I want to do. Every time someone I know or follow comes out, I always... start wondering."

06:15 <Schism> And then I start to think, "is it just... consequences?"

06:16 * ConfusionRift shrugs.

06:16 <ConfusionRift> I blame luck, which has been really bad for me.

06:16 <Schism> ConfusionRift: The typical question is, "If you could be someone else, regardless of the consequences, who would still be you, would you push that button?"

06:17 <Schism> This is less about sexuality, more about dysphoria.

06:18 * Ali pat pats ConfusionRift

06:18 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, got no answer to that.

06:19 * Schism hugs the ConfusionRift. "That's alright. I think the answer is staring me in the face. And screaming like an orange."

06:19 * Ali ment that for Schism but brainfarted, also blames thunderstorms

06:19 <Ali> These storms have me a bit on edge, since its night and they're just hovering around.

06:20 * ConfusionRift huggles Ali.

06:20 * Schism hugs the Ali, too. "If I could be something else..." They chuckle, "So much transformation in my past. Starting with the Sword in the Stone."

06:20 <Schism> What a screwed-up existence I've had.

06:25 <Ali> Ok youtube

06:25 <Ali> Just cause I watched a few silly meme things, doesn't mean I want your entire recomended page showing me memes

06:26 <Schism> Oh gods, I know.

06:26 <ConfusionRift> Yep, that's YouTube for ya.

06:26 <Ali> I mean half of them can't even do a single video without repeating the same meme

06:28 * Ali nuzzl ConfusionRift and Schism so much

06:28 <ConfusionRift> But... that's the nature of memes. Repeat the same thing over and over, till they all get tired of it, then move to some other annoying thing to repeat, or just grab something that was funny and make it not funny anymore by ruining it completely. If that doesn't work, then just follow what everyone else is doing and just add it to your videos, because everyone else is doing it.

06:29 <ConfusionRift> Oh yeah, and sell merchandise that steals art from other people.

06:29 * Schism sips teacup. "This is fine." He then melts and is distributed onto a million t-shirts.

06:29 <ConfusionRift> Oh... sorry. Fell on a bit of a tirade there.

06:30 <Schism> S'fine, I think art theft is one of those things we can generally be in agreement about.

06:30 <Ali> And what's silly

06:30 <Ali> They all use Microsoft SAM to say things

06:32 <ConfusionRift> Yep.

06:32 <Schism> Or, failing that, Impact.

06:33 <Ali> Impact?

06:33 <ConfusionRift> Yeah... FTL traveling gets really dangerous..

06:33 <Schism> Yeah, the font, Ali.

06:33 <Schism> ConfusionRift: Eeh.  You run into planets, or get interdicted?

06:33 <ConfusionRift> Oh... whoops.

06:33 <Ali> My mind defauts to Goemon Impact >.<

06:34 <ConfusionRift> Schism: It's contradicting, but your initial tutorial is waaaay different from the menu tutorial.

06:34 <Schism> Oh, yeah.

06:34 <Schism> The primary tutorial doesn't recally cover movement between systems very well.

06:35 <ConfusionRift> That, and they assist you in many of them. The menu tutorials however, are completely manual.

06:36 <Schism> Have you deployed hardpoints and gotten a 100 gil penalty for doing so yet?

06:36 <Jackie> Playing Dwarf Fortress 2006 is primitive

06:36 <Schism> 100-credit, that is.  :S

06:36 * ConfusionRift shakes his head. "I don't press the button till I have to."

06:37 <Schism> Lucky.  :P  I kept hitting Y and winding up deploying hardpoints when I wanted to go to menus.

06:37 <ConfusionRift> Also... why are each point on the mouse the other way around? Left click is for the right point, and right click is for the left.

06:38 <Schism> Well, not so much now that I'm used to it.  Also, I don't know!  You can reset them, though.

06:39 <ConfusionRift> Also... point groups? I suppose for two or more sets. Lastly, A and D are NOT for strafing, they're for yawing. Q and E are for strafing.

06:39 <Schism> Anyway.  I think I'm going to need some sleep... after which I'll probably see about speaking with some mental health professionals before I work.  I think a lot of my issues are derived from a single point.

06:40 <Schism> ConfusionRift, I've always found that joysticks are better for space sims.  :S

06:40 <ConfusionRift> I might jump to controller. House controls are a bit... meh.

06:41 <Schism> Just a heads up, Y is mapped by default to 'deploy/retract hardpoints', and the right trigger and left trigger, the same.

06:41 <Schism> That is, they're hardpoint settings, so they'll cause them to deploy.

06:41 <Schism> Meanwhile, LB and RB are your throttle and reverse.

06:41 <ConfusionRift> Hmmm...

06:42 <Schism> Yeah, it takes some getting used to.

06:42 * Schism blehs, spits out a bit of oil, and decides to get a little rest.

06:42 <Jackie> reminds me of pioneer

06:42 <ConfusionRift> I can see why you keep deploying them.

06:42 <ConfusionRift> In any case, some other time. Have a good one!

06:42 <Schism> It does inevitably become second nature, but it's hard to get used to.

06:42 <Schism> Anyway, back later.  Take care!

06:43 * ConfusionRift wavies.

06:43 <Schism> Oh, and... here's why I'm wondering.  (It doesn't hurt to have this spread around.)  https://twitter.com/TransSalamander/status/947522372315369472

06:45 <ConfusionRift> Yeah... this kinda falls under over-analysis for me.

06:45 * PrincessRainbows curls up under ConfusionRift with her pacifier and plushie. Nini

06:46 * ConfusionRift lightly pats PrincessRainbows.

06:46 <Schism> Eh. For some folks it makes sense.  There's no one solution.  And of course, not everyone happens to have dysphoria.

06:46 * Schism hugs the PrincessRainbows too.

06:49 <ConfusionRift> The thing is that I keep reading it. I think they mean what they mean, but then am not sure because they could mean something else. Ooooh... I see now.

06:50 <ConfusionRift> The reason why it kinda didn't make sense to me is because... I stopped caring about who I felt I was with how I looked. I threw that away long ago.

06:51 <Schism> That's one solution to dysphoria, certainly.  I've never been able to manage that level of detachment.

06:51 <Schism> I suspect most folks aren't.

06:52 <ConfusionRift> Society and it's (bleep) caused this.

06:52 <Schism> Yerp.

06:53 <Schism> Pretty clear-cut, really, if you think about it.  Forcing people into a binary state will cause issues because people tend to be analog.

06:54 <ConfusionRift> Oh, I'm analog, I know that and there's no denying it. The only thing is that it doesn't bother me and I don't find offensive if people aren't. You can be digital is you want.

06:55 <ConfusionRift> Wait... wrong thing... well, you get my point.

06:55 <Schism> Eh.  I get the gist.

06:55 <Schism> A lot of us tend towards the digital, towards specifics, and that's fine.

06:56 <ConfusionRift> You can be whomever you want to be. because that's you. And only you can be you.

06:56 <Schism> Yup!  And if you prefer to be on or off, ones and zeroes, then that's your choice -- but that's the essential part of it.  Your. Choice.

06:56 * ConfusionRift nods.

06:57 * ConfusionRift then bunks his head. Isn't sure of what he's thinking anymore.

06:57 <Schism> Sorry.  I'm kind of all over there tonight too.

06:58 <Schism> Only reason I'm up tonight is to refresh webcomics.

07:03 * PrincessRainbows melts. So hot here

07:05 *** Quits: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-u30cht.dynamic.sonic.net) (Connection closed)

07:08 * ConfusionRift lightly pats Schism. "It's alright, we're on the same boat."

07:08 <PrincessRainbows> It's like I'm exuding massive amounts of infrared radiation

07:08 * ConfusionRift puts a fan next to PrincessRainbows.

07:09 <ConfusionRift> Oh, almost forgot to ask.

07:09 <PrincessRainbows> Sometimes I want to flee the state for that reason too

07:09 <ConfusionRift> Tirek... doing commissions?

07:19 <Jackie> It sucks that I have no one to play tabletop with because I have this free mlp tabletop system

07:21 * PrincessRainbows licks Jackie and barks

07:21 <ConfusionRift> Same. But things are not making it easier. I guess online gaming will be the closest for me.

07:22 <Jackie> I mean it's possible to do it in IRC

07:22 <Jackie> Or any online communication

07:25 * Jackie pets PrincessRainbows

07:27 * PrincessRainbows boops Jackie with a tennis ball and jumps around

19:23 <Cepheid> What, are they feeding vampires at that hospital?

19:26 <Fluttershy> Hello 😁😁😁.

19:28 <Fluttershy> 😀😁😀😁

19:30 <LibrarianofHope> we can do emojis?

19:31 <Ali> I didn't know IRC even supported those

19:31 <Ali> Then again it doesn't show up on mine

19:31 <LibrarianofHope> it works on kiwi

19:32 <Fluttershy> ye... wait, what?

19:33 <LibrarianofHope> the kiwi¿

19:33 <Cepheid> Technically emoji are covered in Unicode.

19:33 <Fluttershy> what?

19:33 <Cepheid> And since IRC supports UTF-8, an encoding of Unicode, it supports emoji.

19:33 <Cepheid> It requires an IRC client that uses Unicode though.

19:34 <Cepheid> One that just supports ASCII won't work.  Or limited-size codepages.

19:34 <Fluttershy> Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?

19:34 <Cepheid> Technical stuff, Fluttershy.

19:35 <Fluttershy> ok, I'm on a computer and I am not a IRC client.

19:36 <Cepheid> You are on a computer, running an IRC client, to connect to this IRC channel.

19:36 <Cepheid> You're just probably using a webclient, rather than a dedicated client.

19:39 <Fluttershy> correct.

19:39 * PrincessRainbows wiggle waggles playfully at Ali

19:40 <Cepheid> So, looks like Tizzy gave me a permanent scar.

19:41 <Cepheid> It's been over two months since I got this scratch.  While its not inflamed or infected or anything, it is still healing.  Last time I had a cat scratch take this long to heal, Simba gave me a set of deep gouges.

19:43 <LibrarianofHope> jsut say you got it taming a ferocius beast

19:43 <Fluttershy> that ought to hurt.

19:45 <Cepheid> They happened due to accidents, but yeah they hurt.  Initially, anyways.

19:45 <Cepheid> I'm one of those people who seem to be resistant to the whole cat scratch fever or infections from cats.

19:46 <Cepheid> So all I get is the initial pain, and nothing afterwards.

19:46 <Fluttershy> If it were me, I wouldn,t mess with a cat for a loooooong time.

19:46 <Cepheid> Like I said, accidents.  It was my fault.

19:47 <Cepheid> In the case of this scratch, it was less my fault and more my mother.  Had Tizzy resting on me.  Mother sneezed loudly.  Cat scrambled to run away.  Dug a claw in deep into my arm.  Wasn't the cat's fault.

19:48 <Cepheid> For Simba...  I wasn't in a good mood at the time.  I blocked him from jumping up onto my desk.  He got his front paws onto the desk and scrambled and reached for whatever he could to stop falling.  He got my arm, claws came out, dug in.

19:49 <Fluttershy> yeah I wouldn't forgive her. did she at least sneeze into her arm?

19:49 <Cepheid> That was my fault, so I didn't hold it against him.

19:49 <Cepheid> She did.

19:51 <Fluttershy> wew. good.

19:54 <Cepheid> Honestly if you are worried about current health events in my family, you should be concerned more about the actions of my sister rather than my parents.  My sister is the one going out and spending time with random folks around the city.

19:55 <Cepheid> My parents make extensive use of PPE to protect themselves at work.

19:55 <Fluttershy> oh, no.

19:56 <Cepheid> My dad actually goes around to random places for work, some of which includes people's homes.  Despite this, no indications of COVID-19 have been spotted.  I was even tested a few weeks back at doctor's orders.  Came back negative.

19:59 <Cepheid> I only got tested because I exhibit symptoms.  But whatever I have is not contagious.  It resists antibiotics and prednisone too.

20:00 <Cepheid> Current theory is my immune system is broken.  Hence the bloodwork today.

20:09 * Cepheid wants to code today.

20:14 * Cepheid examines how Sonic the Hedgehog does it's collision detection and resolution for tile-based collision.

20:19 <Cepheid> Hum.  Seems straightforward.

20:22 * PrincessRainbows flops on LibrarianofHope and sighs

20:22 *** Jouva__ is now known as Jouva

20:29 <Finwe> Good evening, my perissodactyls of minute stature.

20:30 <Cepheid> ... Wait, Castlevania music exists in Smash Brothers Ultimate?

20:30 <Tirek> Yes

20:30 <Cepheid> ...

20:30 * PrincessRainbows boops Finwe's horn and giggles

20:30 <Tirek> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1J0L_8bbSI

20:31 * Finwe horn-wiggles.

20:31 <Finwe> !plot

20:31 <DerpyBot> *wigglewiggle*

20:31 <Tirek> They have my favorite song from the series in it, too

20:31 <Finwe> *wigglewiggle*

20:31 <Cepheid> They got Simon and Richter.

20:31 <Cepheid> But no Soma?

20:31 <Tirek> Yeah, sad days

20:31 <Tirek> You can't play as Dracula 2.0

20:32 <Cepheid> Lately, I've been into CV again.  Fun note, you know how for Dawn of Sorrows, they switched to an anime style for the artwork, and people threw a fit over that?

20:32 <Cepheid> It's not the first time that anime style artwork has appeared in a CV game.

20:32 <Tirek> Though, if I were to suggest another castlevania character, it'd probably be Shanoa instead. Dominus has more visual flare.

20:32 <Cepheid> Rondo of Blood, at least the original version, not the remakes, had full anime cutscenes for rescuing each of the captive women.

20:32 <Tirek> Yep

20:33 <Cepheid> It's too bad that the CV series has been effectively killed game-wise because of mismanagement at Konami.

20:33 * PrincessRainbows hugs Finwe so much

20:33 <Tirek> Where does castlevania pachinko fit into the timeline

20:33 <Tirek> very important question

20:34 <Cepheid> I mean, we're still getting Igavanias, but the current newest entry is...  It needs work.  But I'm willing to accept that, if future entries are improved, similar to say, how the GBA games were handled.

20:35 <Cepheid> Circle of the Moon was the first entry on the GBA.  It wasn't the best.  But future entries followed suit, as the engine itself was refined and improved.

20:35 <Tirek> I liked the card system.

20:35 <Tirek> It was a neat magic concept.

20:35 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

20:36 <Tirek> Then again, I also found it humorous that you could just be a skeleton and insta-kill some bosses.

20:36 <Cepheid> The main issue was more just the style and layout.  It was lackluster.

20:36 <Tirek> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNlEHUn5acc

20:38 <Cepheid> Heh.

20:39 <Cepheid> Hmm.  I wonder if that approach could solve my problem...

20:44 <Cepheid> Definitely can solve the problem, but it would increase the amount of processing, unless I decide to use a hackjob solution

20:44 *** Joins: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net)

20:47 <LibrarianofHope> full house today

20:54 *** Ali|AFK is now known as Ali

20:54 * PinkieShy hugs Ali

20:55 * Ali grumps on PinkieShy

20:55 * Cepheid really needs to draw this out to figure out all the various problems he is having.

20:55 * Cepheid also needs to get out of the house to do this, because his family is unbelievably, obnoxiously loud.

20:56 <Cepheid> My sister pokes me any time I'm thinking, because she thinks something's wrong.

20:56 <Cepheid> Unfortunately, with the lockdown, there's not very many places I can go, if any.

20:56 <Ali> Then your mom comes by and drops a pill

20:56 <Cepheid> Yerp.

21:02 <Ali> You know, the mining drill change is taking a bit to get used to.

21:07 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) #3389 [ http://tinyurl.com/ya3f6hmn ]

21:11 <Cepheid> I give up.  I can't focus with all these distractions.

21:12 <Cepheid> The problem is that this family has several, incompatible personalities.

21:12 <Cepheid> My mother and sister have to talk on a regular basis.  There's no ifs ands or buts about it.

21:12 <Cepheid> Or they have to be moving constantly, making noise.

21:13 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I need peace and quiet to be able to think clearly.  My dad meanwhile, doesn't make any noise, because he's just a quiet person altogether.

21:47 <Cepheid> Yay, I'm having another episode.

21:58 <Starlight_Glimmer> So there's a VAT reduction of 2-3% (depending on the goods, usually 3%) in Germany for the rest of the year in response to the corona virus

21:59 <Starlight_Glimmer> There was very little of a head start for companies

22:01 <Starlight_Glimmer> So I laughed and told people this might end up costing more than it's actually worth due to all the cost of changing labels etc. and updating the PoS systems

22:01 <Starlight_Glimmer> Unlike in the U.S. in Germany price labels targeting consumers always show prices including VAT

22:01 <Starlight_Glimmer> Some of my co-workers claimed I was being silly.

22:02 <Starlight_Glimmer> When I discovered this the VAT changes were not even officially in effect. Apparently Amazon doesn't care about time zones?

22:03 <Starlight_Glimmer> But O.K. I guess. Might have been a bit early, but who cares really except our IRS maybe

22:03 <Starlight_Glimmer> Well ...

22:04 <Starlight_Glimmer> You can buy 50€ gift cards on Amazon now for 48.74€. Uhm what? Did I mention gift cards don't even have VAT around here?

22:06 <Starlight_Glimmer> And yes that's exactly the 3% VAT reduction (50/119*116=48.74). This is not like a special offer or something.

22:06 <Starlight_Glimmer> When even Amazon gets is wrong you know you're in for a treat!

22:08 <Starlight_Glimmer> Some companies after changes prices early because I guess they expected trouble. This is a bit hilarious, because now you have all sorts of odd prices instead of the usual .99 everything.

22:08 <LibrarianofHope> owo

22:08 <LibrarianofHope> dont complaint that the goverment reduces/gives stuff

22:08 <LibrarianofHope> rather

22:08 <LibrarianofHope> complaint if you please

22:09 <LibrarianofHope> it just makes me think that my own situation is so dumb

22:09 <LibrarianofHope> it would be nice if we felt the goverment had a semblance of a plan

22:09 <LibrarianofHope> we have a senile demagogue and a circus of a goverment

22:10 <Starlight_Glimmer> That 3% reduction might as well not exist

22:10 <Starlight_Glimmer> It doesn't really account for much for most people

22:10 <LibrarianofHope> maybe on lower income residents?

22:11 <LibrarianofHope> least they try to help

22:11 <Starlight_Glimmer> No. Especially lower income households won't notice.

22:11 <LibrarianofHope> bleh

22:11 <Starlight_Glimmer> Rent doesn't have VAT. For lower income households that's the majority of their income right there

22:11 <LibrarianofHope> if nothing else in my case mexico has had arealy funnt series of mishaps on an airport here

22:12 <LibrarianofHope> lemme tell you that history

22:12 <LibrarianofHope> its good

22:12 <LibrarianofHope> for context, we had a new airport being built in a barren area called Texcoco

22:12 <LibrarianofHope> usual bribes and corruption on the thing, but it was moving

22:13 <LibrarianofHope> then comes the new president , shuts the thing down, wastes lots of money and moves it to a military base

22:13 <LibrarianofHope> thing is, once in said base, they find mammoths

22:13 <LibrarianofHope> not one, not 10, a 100 fossils

22:14 <LibrarianofHope> below a small mountain/hill that was also in the way, cause the actual base is too small for an airport

22:14 <PinkieShy> Dentist tomorrow but can't decide if its best to cancel it until Februray or not..

22:14 <PinkieShy> :(

22:15 <PinkieShy> I don't want the coronavirus and the virus they reported 170new cases here today

22:15 <LibrarianofHope> are you in pain?

22:15 <PinkieShy> No but one of my teeth looks like a pinhole..

22:16 <PinkieShy> Like a very very small hole that isn't getting bigger in the past month

22:18 <LibrarianofHope> weight the risk to the inmediate need of fixing it

22:18 <LibrarianofHope> do whatever has more advantages

22:20 <LibrarianofHope> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPuKyeVsfZY

22:20 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

22:20 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Canterbury Park Corgi Races 7-30-2016

22:20 <LibrarianofHope> it worked owo

22:27 <PinkieShy> Just rescheduled it..

22:27 <PinkieShy> They told me they can do Emergency appointment if i need them to sooner just keep an eye on my tooth :)

22:27 <PinkieShy> Thinking of my father's health before mine.. I don't want to come in contact with the virus and pass it to him o_o

22:30 <PinkieShy> I care about my family, I love them and will do anything I need to to protect them if i can :)

22:30 <LibrarianofHope> thtas so nice

22:30 * LibrarianofHope gives pinkieshy a throphy

22:31 <PinkieShy> Hey I mean anybody would do it for family tbh.

22:31 * PinkieShy licks LibrarianofHope

22:32 <LibrarianofHope> i know the process is slow, but this lack of progress annoys me
