00:01 <Alice> So what's everyone up to?

00:06 <Ali> Nothing like killing a boss, only to get a skulltula token

00:06 <Ali> I'm doing an OoT Rando

00:12 <Ali> Gee I guess the game wants me to go to the freaking fire temple, its only given me like SEVEN of the keys to the place.

00:42 <Lumindia> haha, netherite pickaxe go BRBRBRBR

00:50 * Schism gets off her work, and grumbles. "Voices are weird. I feel like I'm cosplaying when I go into my normal phone voice now."

00:51 <Alice> Heh.

00:51 * Lumindia pats Schism, then nibbles her ear

00:51 * Schism earwiggles! And boops Lumindia on the nose.

00:51 * Alice flops.

00:52 <Schism> 68 degrees Fahrenheit now.  20 Celsius.  I'm not complaining...

00:52 <Alice> The problem is the humidity.

00:52 <Alice> It's so high it's damp.

00:52 <Alice> Oh, and you know.  Tornado alerts.

00:53 <Schism> Well, same.  Except for the tornadoes.

00:53 <Schism> 87% humidity, and raining frequently.

00:54 <Schism> The weather dropping down to something nice and comfortable like this makes me wonder when the other penny will drop, though.

00:54 <Schism> Well, the other shoe.

00:55 <Alice> Doesn't look like there's anymore cells about to hit where I live, other than the one currently just scraping the region.

01:10 <Alice> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLUeowS8VNk

01:10 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about God Eater OST - God and Man ~Vocal Version~ (神と人と Vocal Ver.)

01:10 <Alice> Heh.  That is actually the correct translation of the name, too.

01:16 <Alice> Hum.  I'm gonna have to start over on God Eater.

01:16 <Alice> Not that I mind, of course.

01:16 <Alice> Funny thing.  I like Monster Hunter, won't lie.  But I feel Namco, with it's God Eater series, did the concept better.

01:18 <Alice> ...  I just had the craziest damned idea, and a dangerous one.

01:19 * Ali boops Schism nosie

01:19 <Alice> God Eater weapons are basically made of modern/near-future metals and alloys.  I want to find on that I like, learn forging, and make a replica of one of the weapons.

01:21 <Alice> Of course, if I did that, I wouldn't be able to lift it.

01:23 <Alice> It's implied that the weapons, despite being "linked" to a given individual, are incredibly heavy, like, beyond what a normal human being can lift.

01:23 * Schism boops the Ali right back! And watches a bit of Robotics;Notes.

01:26 <Alice> In particular, I'd reproduce one of the scythe weapons.  Not sure I'd be able to reproduce one other aspect of the weapons, though.

01:26 <Alice> All the God Eater weapons can transform.

01:26 <Alice> They switch between a melee weapon, and a ranged gun.

01:26 <Alice> The problem with reproducing the effect though is that the various parts of the weapon actually change size.

01:31 <Alice> Oh no.  Ooooooh no.

01:31 <Alice> Schism, I did something bad.

01:32 <Schism> Oh dear... what's that?

01:33 <Alice> I introduced my sister to Monster Hunter: World.

01:33 <Divide|Adagio> I see no problem with that.

01:34 *** Divide|Adagio is now known as Schism|Adagio

01:34 <Alice> She decided to cancel tonight's game plans due to a headache, same kind I get.  I mentioned I was examining a game that I might play later, God Eater, and she asked about it.

01:34 <Alice> I told her what it was, and other games that might be more her speed and accessible, that is, Monster Hunter: World.

01:34 <Alice> She says it sounds like her kind of game.

01:34 <Schism|Adagio> I still see no issue here...!

01:34 <Alice> Well..

01:34 <Alice> She's playing PS4.  :P

01:35 <Alice> So I'll be running two characters now, it seems. XD

01:35 <Schism|Adagio> Ah, I see.  X3

01:35 <Alice> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4lmZdjMCq8 Man, they really like this song.  It appears even in GE3.

01:35 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

01:35 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about God Eater 3 Ost - Gods and Men - Vocal Version -

01:36 <Alice> For the record, basic gist of the God Eater Series:  It's a Monster Hunter-like, much faster paced, smaller(But still largish) arenas.  And, interestingly, it beat MHWorld to the transitionless open field concept.

01:36 * Schism|Adagio randomly asks, "Whose eyes are those eyes?"

01:36 <Alice> Hmm?

01:37 <Schism|Adagio> Heh.  :P  That phrase keeps coming back in this series.

01:40 <Alice> Essential gist of the introduction of the story to the God Eater series:  World's been overrun by creatures called Aragami.  You're part of what amounts to a resistance force, utilizing special weapons called God Arcs, to beat up the creatures, and then rip out their cores.

01:41 <Alice> I love the series because the story tends to be far more indepth than most MH games.  I say most, because Capcom decided "enough is enough" and decided to make a MH game with a decent story, voice acting, cutscenes, faster battle pacing(Though still slow in comparison to God Eater), and so on.

01:42 <Alice> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drb1papU7lE

01:42 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

01:42 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about God Eater OST - No Way Back ~Out of My Way~

01:44 <Alice> They also, at least, explain the creatures, to some degree.

01:44 <Schism|Adagio> Hmmm...!  Also, sorry, am distracted by Robotics;Notes.

01:44 <Alice> Each aragami is, essentially a multicellular lifeform, like humans, animals, and the like.  But the distinction is a bit different here.  Imagine that each part of the body is a single, large cell.

01:45 <Alice> Horn?  Single cell.  Claw?  Single cell.  And so on.

01:51 <Schism|Adagio> This one is much more light-hearted than the delusions and alterante worldlines of the previous sets.

01:51 <Alice> Hum.  Where can I watch these shows you keep mentioning anyways?  I assume Crunchyroll is one source.

01:54 <Alice> Oh.  Wow, that song was actually completely translated?  I thought it was English in both versions.  Not often you see accurate English reproductions of Japanese music.

01:54 <Schism|Adagio> I'm not sure where they're located.  I guess it's possible that Crunchyroll might have them!

01:55 <Alice> Let's see.

01:55 <Alice> What are the series called again?  I know Steins;Gate.

01:55 <Schism|Adagio> Chaos;Head, Steins;Gate, Robotics;Notes.

01:57 <Alice> It appears Steins;Gate was at one point available on Crunchyroll.  Which means it's probably on Funimation, then.  Steins;Gate 0 is available on Crunchyroll.

01:57 <Schism|Adagio> Don't watch 0 before Steins;Gate.

01:57 <Alice> I know.

01:58 <Alice> It even says in the description that it continues off from Steins;Gate's ending.

01:58 <Alice> And yeah.  Steins;Gate is on Funimation.

01:58 <Schism|Adagio> Aha.

01:59 <Schism|Adagio> And that's not totally accurate, but... close enough.

01:59 <Alice> Same with Chaos;Head

01:59 <Alice> I know, I know.  It said something of an alternate timeline for 0.

01:59 <Schism|Adagio> Ah, fair warning.  Chaos;Head has a lot of plot holes.

02:00 <Alice> Interesting.  God and Man, the most common version I can find on Youtube is the English version.  Even putting in the Japanese text for the name brings up the English version.  So is the Japanese version the variant, then?

02:01 <Alice> Either that, or it's being DMCAed.

02:04 <Alice> Unfortunate, as the only version I can find is a duet/mix version created by a random person, which mixes both versions.

02:05 <Alice> And it sounds like yu-yu does a good job of the song in Japanese.

02:15 <Alice> Spitfire, you are a master of stealth through just existing.

02:25 <Alice> https://twitter.com/DanaSchwartzzz/status/1290099395220799488 ...

02:28 <Schism|Adagio> This anime is much, much sillier.

02:29 <Alice> Schism, check that tweet.

02:29 <Alice> It's up your alley.

02:31 <Schism> That is a rather interesting list of ingredients, and I would totally eat all of them to discover their effects.

02:31 <Alice> Yes.  Well, the thing about that book is it's meant to be serious.

02:33 <Alice> Bleh.  Now I want to lay down.  I shouldn't have spent all that time listening to music on headphones.

02:48 * Alice makes one of her super-spicy drinks.

03:09 * Schism|Adagio blinks at the worldline. "Oh, that."

03:15 <Alice> Ngh.  Guess even Aleve combined with the antibiotics and anti-migraine meds isn't sufficient.

03:15 <Alice> Guess I'll go lay down in darkness and read.

03:22 * Alice noms eggs.

07:36 <Alice> Hum.  When I get stressed out or depressed because of something stupid I did(Don't ask, not gonna go into detail, just know it was stupid of me to do.), I either outright just stop breathing, or start breathing incredibly slowly.

07:37 <Alice> Probably what makes my episodes get worse, because lack of oxygen, my brain starts panicking worse.

07:42 * Alice does breathing exercises, forcing herself to breathe in the first place.

07:43 <ConfusionRift> Yep, falling on a state of anxiety similar to a fight or flight response. It's usually what generates those "snapping" situations. Kinda read something about this. It does happen.

07:46 <Alice> You'd think I'd have more common sense, though.  Ah well.  Nothing I can do about it now.  Learn something from it, apologize for my actions, move on.

07:47 * PrincessRainbows boops Ali's horn with a wing and giggles

07:48 * Ali squeaks and snugs on the PrincessRainbows

07:48 *** Joins: Moongoodgirl (moonbolt@sugar-belle.blackl.net)

07:48 * PrincessRainbows makes little filly noises and hugs the Ali

07:51 * ConfusionRift scratches Control off the queue list. "This was really good."

07:52 <Alice> Heh.

07:53 <ConfusionRift> I also would like to get the soundtrack.

07:59 <Alice> If you figure out where to do so, tell me.

08:00 * PrincessRainbows also licks ConfusionRift's nosie and jumps around him

08:01 * ConfusionRift pets PrincessRainbows. :P

08:05 * PrincessRainbows makes silly little filly noises and sits on the ConfusionRift

08:12 <ConfusionRift> Oh wait... the DLC...

08:14 <ConfusionRift> Actually, maybe later.

08:14 <Alice> I was wondering if you also did the DLC.  But yeah, I'd wait for the remaining piece of DLC to be released first.

08:16 <ConfusionRift> Wait, there's another one coming?

08:16 <Alice> Yeah, according to the EGS, there's another coming sooner or later.

08:21 *** Quits: Cano (Cano@MS-DOS.is.resident.in.the.high.memory.area) (Quit: Leaving)

08:24 <Alice> Oops.

08:24 <ConfusionRift> Where?!

08:24 <Alice> I went downstairs to get something, and accidentally walked into one of the cats.  Not sure which one.  I ended up giving them a light kick by accident.  Then I heard them slam their head into the railing and run downstairs.

08:25 <ConfusionRift> Ah, poor thing. It happens... especially with cats.

08:27 <Ali> I'm waiting for the day Lilly will be sleeping on the stairs and I step on her cause she refuses to lay off to the side of the stairs and instead plops down right in the middle.

08:29 <Ali> Also 1.0 Factorio is going to be launching soon.

08:32 * Ali drags ConfusionRift over for more snugglings.

08:34 * ConfusionRift snuggles Ali. :P

08:35 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, they apparently had it planned for this month, but got delayed.

08:39 <ConfusionRift> Still, waiting on the time for factory explosions, demise, and spaghetti junctions. :P

08:39 <Ali> What do you mean waiting?

08:39 <ConfusionRift> You. Are. RIGHT!

08:40 * ConfusionRift blows everything up.

08:40 <Ali> The biters did nothing wrong!

08:40 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift again, is a very floppy pone.

08:41 * ConfusionRift then dumps spaghetti on the ground. Doesn't know why.

08:45 * Alice explodes biters everywhere.

09:01 * PrincessRainbows clutches her favorite plushie and makes grabby hooves at Ali

09:02 * Ali huggles PrincessRainbows as she reads the salt on facebook posts. so fun.

09:05 * PrincessRainbows snuggles with Ali for when she overdoses on stupid. Fb is like bottom of the barrel

09:06 <Alice> Spitfire, I don't know what you're hunting, but please hurry up and kill it, you've been at it for 15 minutes and you're making a lot more noise than necessary to kill it.

09:06 <Ali> Cats like to torment their prey

09:06 <Alice> Yes.

09:06 * Ali snuggles PrincessRainbows, unicorn is immune to stupid after being a mod for ten years.

09:06 <Alice> In this case, it's a fly.  The same one that was harassing me for a bit before it decided to fly off.

09:07 <PrincessRainbows> Yeah after the past few years I mostly am

09:08 * PrincessRainbows decides to go sleepy like a foal in Ali's hooves. Nini

10:56 * Schism yawns, and wakes up -- then she stares at the clock. "Nan desu ka." She turns right back around.

11:00 * Lumindia pats Schism, snugs

11:04 <Lumindia> yer a good pone

11:04 <Lumindia> = v=

11:30 * Schism provides Lumindia with one of these chicken cutlets. It has cheese.

11:31 <Lumindia> o wo

11:31 <Lumindia> yum yum

11:32 <Schism> Ah yes.  ^^;

12:12 <ConfusionRift> Yep, that is... definitely something you don't wanna hear.

12:15 <ConfusionRift> Aside from "huh, don't think it's supposed to be like that", "that's a bit too much for my blood, no go", "it wasn't like that yesterday", and "LET ME BACK IN".

12:16 <ConfusionRift> Especially that last one.

12:17 * Lumindia brushes Schism

12:17 <Lumindia> o vo

12:17 <Lumindia> brushy brushy brushy

12:21 * Schism has comparatively little fur to brush, being a changeling at all. Supposes her mane does need to be brushed...

12:22 * Schism - more than that, though - takes the time to have a nap now that she's finished that chicken.

12:23 <Schism> (Randomly, I'm sure Dan Shive has never, ever, ever watched or read Azumanga Daioh.  https://www.egscomics.com/comic/2017-10-25 )

12:26 * Schism pats ConfusionRift, and then takes a two hour nap for herself.

12:27 <ConfusionRift> I had erased that show from memory, and pop, there it iiiiiissssssszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

12:28 * Schism pats the ConfusionRift, and hands him a plush Osaka.

12:29 <ConfusionRift> Oh wait, wrong show. Still, not exactly on my good list. -_-

12:29 <Schism> You were thinking of Lucky*Star, weren't you.

12:29 <ConfusionRift> ...curses.

12:30 <ConfusionRift> The two go hand in hand, don't they? I tend to confuse both simply because I associate them together,

12:30 <Schism> If you want to get those off your brain, you could always watch Nichijou instead.

12:32 <ConfusionRift> It's kinda on the same for me. The only thing that makes it more passable is the "protagonists" bad luck on top of clumsiness... but mostly bad luck. :P

12:35 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

12:35 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Nichijou - My Ordinary Life – Principal Vs. Deer

12:36 <ConfusionRift> The deer incident is one of the funnier ones. :P

19:08 <TwilightSparkle> You gotta pardon my connection, is being a derp as usual.

19:08 <PinkieShy> Not yet, But they are saying it will by the time it makes landfall over me..

19:08 <TwilightSparkle> Well my problem with how TWC handles storms now

19:09 <TwilightSparkle> Is they swore up and down it was gonna smack Florida good

19:09 <TwilightSparkle> And for the second time, the were wrong again.

19:09 <TwilightSparkle> Barely looked organized at the time and the outer bands looked weak

19:09 <PinkieShy> I always check hurricanes.gov myself.

19:10 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-ddqdhe.4nua.5fca.1702.2600.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

19:10 <TwilightSparkle> It does look better organized now on radar

19:10 *** TwilightSparkle is now known as Ali

19:10 <PinkieShy> They update the cone and images several times a day. (I believe that is where weahter channel gets their info as well..)

19:10 *** ChanServ sets mode: +qo Ali Ali

19:10 <Ali> Well everyone gets their info from NOA

19:11 <Ali> Just be careful and stay inside when a band or winds start to pick up

19:12 <Ali> It will have a hard time reaching hurricane strength depending on several factors

19:13 <Ali> Like how far away the outer bands are from the coast, its speed, wind sheer, and a truckload of other factors.

19:13 <PinkieShy> I just hope it won't be like Hurricane Matthew was when that hit us.. >_>

19:13 <PinkieShy> Still remember that tree that almost fell on the house..

19:16 <Ali> Well the overall winds should be weaker, but depending on stuff like ground saturation and things, will determine how easy it can push a tree over.

19:17 <Ali> But I'm sure with how popular cell phones and their cameras are now, there's gonna be people out there standing in it trying to film it for youtube or something stupid and get hit by flying debris.

19:19 <PinkieShy> All the phones in the house went off at 5am to alert about hurricane warning.

19:23 <Ali> I don't mind the hurricane warning just in case it does reach that strength

19:23 <Ali> There's little wind change from where it is now to Hurricane force, and I'm sure it can already gust to hurricane force as is

19:36 <Alice> Hum.  I think I have thrush in my mouth.

20:20 <Alice> ...  Why am I examining the specs of the 6502?

20:28 <Alice> Apparently, the current average speeds of a 65c02, a CMOS variant of the 6502, is 200MHz.  However, emulation allows for upwards of 300MHz on a Raspberry Pi.  A modern CPU could probably get near the gigahertz range.

20:30 <Nedemai> I know a tonne about the 6502

20:30 <Nedemai> I wrote an emulator for one

20:31 <Cano> Because the 6502 is an interesting and historically significant CPU. :3

20:32 <Starlight_Glimmer> Ali: We don't have hurricanes over here. I mean ... if you'd need a place to stay. :3

20:32 <Ali> I'm in the midwest, the only thing needed to worry about here are rare tornados and even rarer earthquakes.

20:33 <Alice> Apparently, through JITting 6502 code into host code, you can run a 6502 with an approximate speed of 10GHz.

20:34 * Starlight_Glimmer blows on Ali's door and stomps on the ground

20:34 <Starlight_Glimmer> I'd not take any chances *snuggles Ali*

20:35 * Alice stamps on the ground, and jump jump jump jumps everywhere.

20:39 <Alice> Hum.  The 6502 instruction set is pretty simple.  Emulating it would be a relatively simple task.

20:40 <Alice> Tempted to do it for kicks.  That or do the M68K.

20:47 <Alice> Okay, for reasons unknown my breathing has gotten real bad.  Let's experiment!  Let's see if I'm crazy or not, and see if mouthwash helps my breathing at all.

20:52 <Alice> ...  I need to see a doctor.

20:56 <Schism> Alice: Oh, jeez...

20:57 <Alice> It's nothing serious, but I am...  Kind of(?) coughing up blood?

20:58 <Schism> Er... yes.  That is somewhat serious.

20:59 <Alice> It's not happening specifically when I cough, but any sort of gagging motion seems to be bringing something up from deep in the back of my throat with blood in it.

20:59 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) #3420 [ http://tinyurl.com/y4zwethu ]

20:59 <Alice> Which doesn't seem right.

21:01 <Schism> I believe I know what you mean, yes.  Could be bleeding sinuses?

21:01 <Alice> I dunno.  My nose was clear at the time it happened.

21:02 <Alice> And the blood looked fresh.

21:03 <Alice> Plus this was coming from down below rather than up above my mouth.

21:03 <Alice> And no, I haven't eaten anything red.

21:03 <Schism> I'd definitely get that looked at by a doctor, then...

21:03 <Alice> Bowl of rice crispies, a coffee, green grapes, and a blue freezie.

21:05 * Schism passes Alice some purple grapes.

21:05 <Alice> The only problem with that Schism, is the lockdown.  The only place I could go is a hospital, and I'm betting they'll just say it was bleeding gums or something, despite no evidence of that when I brushed my teeth.

21:05 <Alice> They'll just send me home.

21:06 * Schism mmps. "Well, see if it stops, then, I guess..."

21:06 <Alice> I know it's not in my trachea, so...  It's either drainage from my nose, or my esophagus.

21:07 <Lumindia> o wo

21:07 * Lumindia gives both o' dem pones biiig hugs

21:07 <Lumindia> ♥♥

21:08 * Schism hugs the Lumin back! Also, isn't a pone. Just a changeling. Or fox.

21:08 <Alice> I appear to have a minor case of thrush as well, so it could just be blood vessels rapturing from inflammation combined with momentary pressure from the gag reflex.

21:08 <Schism> That might do it.  *passes Alice some saltwater to gargle*

21:09 <Alice> Been using antibacterial mouthwash, but I can't gargle it.  Bubbles up worse than soda water.  Maybe a saltwater or hydrogen peroxide mix would work, yeah.

21:10 <Alice> As for where I got the thrush, probably the asthma meds.  Inhalers are known for causing it.

21:11 <Schism> Mm, that could definitely do it.

21:13 <Lumindia> you COULD be a pony if you wanted

21:13 <Lumindia> o vo

21:13 * Lumindia boops

21:16 <Alice> Guh, my throat feels raw as hell right now though.

21:16 <Schism> Get some tea with lemon?

21:19 * Schism puts a marshmallow into her hot cocoa. The marshmallow expands, soaking up every drop of the liquid.

21:20 <Alice> Took a look inside my mouth with a light too.  Throat itself looks pinkish with white stuff.  Adam's apple looks inflamed red, with what appears to be a small cut on it?  Same for the roof of my mouth, from the back to about halfway into that concave area, with a bit of whiteness.  Tongue...  Looks red from the back to about a third of the way to the tip.  White spots on the sides that can be scrubbed away.  I think I have a throat i

21:21 <Alice> Rest, cheeks included, all look healthy.

21:25 <Alice> And mouthwash/warm saltwater rinsing has definitely improved my breathing.  I am not going insane.

21:27 <Alice> Found the source of the blood.

21:30 <PinkieShy> hmm

21:31 <Alice> It's not a cut on my uvula.  It's blood.  I also got signs of bleeding along the sides of my mouth near the back.  I've definitely got a mouth/throat infection.  Don't go kissing me folks. :P

21:31 <PinkieShy> Apparently Walmart, Chick-fil-a and other places are closing very early today because of the storm

21:58 <Alice> There.  Appointment made with doctor.  Sent in pictures to show what's going on.

22:09 <Alice> Someone, back in 2004, found a way to make an adapter to fool the Famicom into thinking that a hard disk drive was a Famicom Disk System.

23:14 <Alice> Almost but not quite a "Oh sweet geezus what the hell?!" kind of moment.

23:14 <PinkieShy> oh great.. They put us under tornado watch now..

23:17 <Alice> I just realized I forgot to ask what it was.  Anyone here know enough about oral/throat health to be able to tell me what I have based on photos? :P

23:17 <Ali> PinkieShy, that's normal as a precaution

23:17 <Ali> You never know what those outer bands could do

23:18 <Alice> Yeah, that's the thing about storms.

23:18 <Alice> They can just as easily turn into a tornado, water spout, and so on, at the flick of a switch.  And just as quickly dissipate.

23:18 <Ali> Hmm, looks like the strongest part of the storm will stay offshore

23:19 <Ali> And its moving NNE, so its track is changing a bit again.

23:19 <Alice> It is entirely dependent on the right conditions occurring.  Warnings are just indicators that such-and-such region is approaching conditions in which those very specific conditions can occur.

23:19 <Ali> Well usually a Tornado Warning is sent with one of two verifications

23:19 <Alice> I was not aware of that.

23:19 <Ali> Either a trained spotter has seen one, or its radar indicated

23:20 <Alice> BUt that would explain why they did send out the alert yesterday for my area, as there were actually tornadoes in the warning area.

23:21 <Ali> The watch box is just that the area is favorable for tornadic development

23:22 <Ali> Sometimes it comes true, sometimes it doesn't

23:22 <Ali> Just like the case with a severe thunderstorm during a tornado watch

23:22 <Ali> At least here

23:22 <Ali> If there is a severe thunderstorm warning issued for an area with a Tornado Watch, then the sirens go off.

23:22 <Alice> We did get a considerable rain storm at around the time the alert came out.

23:23 <Alice> Torrential downpour, not unlike the kind I saw during the two tornados that hit Ottawa two-three years back.

23:23 <Ali> Rain wrapped Tornadoes are the worst

23:23 *** Quits: Jackie (Jarva@Pony-7av.omc.105.130.IP) (Connection closed)

23:23 <Alice> Yeah, I know.

23:23 <Alice> I've walked through the rain from a tornado.

23:24 <Alice> By the time I reached the bus stop from the train, I was completely soaked, head to toe, underwear included.  I managed to protect my school stuff by putting the only coat I had over top my bag, but that left me uncovered.

23:24 <Ali> I was in a car that got pelted by hail from a tornado

23:24 <Ali> Not the most fun sounding noise...

23:24 <Alice> I got lucky.  No hail, but the rain was extremely heavy.  It actually limited visibility to about 10-20 meters.

23:24 <Alice> And was going sideways.

23:24 <Ali> Wind driven rain is the worst

23:25 <Ali> And with how sensitive my ears are now, driving in heavy downpours is next to impossible, its a heavy assualt on my senses.

23:25 <Alice> Honestly, it wasn't really that bad.

23:25 <Alice> It was the end-result that was annoying.

23:25 <Alice> But then, in your case, the noise from the rain would-  Yeah.

23:25 <Ali> I've had times when I was working

23:26 <Ali> That I had to put on my noise cancelers to continue to drive to work

23:26 <Ali> But I had to double or even triple up on my checks of the surroundings since my hearing was pretty much shut down.

23:26 <Alice> I had to spend about an hour and a half in completely soaked clothes.  That was...  It was itchy, annoying, and when I got home, I immediately jumped into an hour-long shower.

23:27 <Ali> Nothing is worse than not seeing an police car or the likes and can't hear them comming

23:28 <Alice> Granted, I'd still like a proper office.

23:29 <Alice> It's very difficult to work from home, especially if you don't live alone.

23:32 <Ali> I want contact, but I can't have it

23:32 <Alice> In my case, it's more crippling to have people around me.

23:32 <Ali> I'm doing what I can, but I'm in a deep hole cause of firing the last place I had

23:32 <Ali> Nobody seems to be taking on new clients for the help I need

23:33 <Ali> So I'm back in a hole where I was ten years ago.

23:48 <Alice> Bah.

23:48 <Alice> Hum.

23:49 <Alice> People here in Canada are complaining that the COVID-19 tracking app doesn't work on phones older than 5 years, acting like it is somehow the fault of the government for this.  My experience with iOS and Android development is that this is the fault of phone OS designers.

23:49 <Alice> Targeting older versions of phone OSes is getting harder and harder to do.

23:49 <Ali> Well don't forget Apple doesn't want you on an older device

23:50 <Ali> I Ipad 2 is basically a brick, even though it would work perfectly and in fine condition

23:54 <Alice> If you could jailbreak it, I'm sure you can put it to use somehow.

23:55 <Alice> Hell, I'm considering turning my tablet into an ARM machine for testing ARM code on, because the screen is really starting to go on it.

23:56 <Ali> Well as you know, Apple has probably put code into the Ipad 2 as it runs on the internet like a sloth racing molassass

23:56 <Ali> There's some sort of limiter that is making the thing run like crap, even though there's nothing really wrong with the device

23:56 <Alice> Well, given the whole "downclocking when battery gets old" thing..

23:57 <Ali> Or like my pc

23:57 <Ali> where it was running in a super safe mode, preventing most games from running

23:58 <Alice> That's more just because something set it to that, and it never notified you.

23:58 <Alice> That's a thing that exists on every install of Windows on every computer.

23:58 <Ali> I'm sure

23:58 <Ali> But I'm saying that is similar to what apple did to their older devices

23:58 <Ali> Just there's no way to change it back

23:59 <Ali> Then again

23:59 <Alice> Yeah, except you don't have any control over it on Apple devices prior to a certain iOS version.

23:59 <Ali> With things nowadays that are just made to be thrown away if they break..

23:59 <Alice> Hence jailbreaking could potentially resolve that.

23:59 <Ali> I mean, I still have old appliances that are still working vs some of this modern throwaway garbage and the older things last longer.

23:59 <Alice> Jailbreaking basically lets you do more with the device than you're officially allowed to, and since it's no longer supported by Apple, [REDACTED] 'em.
