00:06 * Finwe noms on Schism's insulin.

00:06 *** Joins: ADragonDreaming (ADra@Pony-qp3qoc.20dc.fhnt.0406.2601.IP)

00:07 * Dappled chews on sticks.

00:07 * Schism tosses Finwe a Ferrero-rocher thing. Just dark chocolate truffle, nothing big.

00:13 * Schism also offers Dappled a spinnich pisza.

00:14 * Dappled sniffs at spinnich... Fresh spinnich? It is on a pisza... Nom nom nom.

00:15 <Schism> Wif lots of cheese and tomatoes.

00:17 * Dappled noms more.

00:41 <Schism> Mmm, delicious.  https://twitter.com/invadingduck/status/1343051781274796032

00:45 <Tirek> This joke is activating my single neuron

00:45 <Tirek> Thank you for this

00:45 <Schism> I admit, now I'm hungry again.

00:45 * Schism bows.

00:45 <Tirek> I'll be hungry soon, probably

00:45 <Tirek> I have consumed an amount of alcohol that has left me inebriated.

00:46 <Tirek> Its my own stuff. I made hard apple cider.

00:46 <Schism> Ah, a fine choice.  Save any for New Year's?

00:46 <Tirek> I made something like 16 liters, and I had only had two liters since I bottled it on christmas eve

00:47 <Tirek> Basically 500ml a session.

00:47 <Schism> Ah, plenty left for whenever.  Superb.

00:47 <Tirek> Yep.

00:47 * Schism nods, thumbs-ups, and then flops over to sleep. It's been a long day.

00:47 <Tirek> Good night and good luck.

00:48 <Schism> Afore I go: some level designer has a lot to answer for.  https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EqQ0v-TW8AgKGbf?format=jpg&name=900x900

00:48 <Tirek> I've seen this image before.

00:49 <Schism> Followed by this.  https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EqQ0v-TW8AgKGbf?format=jpg&name=900x900

00:49 <Schism> Wrong link.  This one.  https://twitter.com/FPScarol/status/1343262859027857408

00:49 <Tirek> I presume this is a quake reference

00:49 <Tirek> But I am not sure.

00:50 <Schism> Yes, that would be Quake 3.

00:50 <Tirek> I have never once consumed a game of quake

00:51 <Schism> It may be worth your while sometime.

00:51 <Schism> Okay, NOW I go to sleep.  Rest well.

00:51 <Tirek> Once again, goodnight and good luck.

01:03 <Cepheid> Augh, finally.  50 minutes waiting on a doctor.

01:07 <AppleDash> At 8 PM? o.o

01:13 <Cepheid> I was expectng to fall asleep at 7-8 AM, and wake up at 3 PM.  So I set up the appointment for when I was expected to be awake.  Didn't quuuuiiiiite go to plan.

01:19 <Cepheid> As for why he takes such late appointments, I don't know.

01:20 <Cepheid> Could be something like me.  A bit of a night owl.  There's a loooong period in the middle of the day where he doesn't take appointments.

07:19 <Cepheid> Ah, bufferbloat.  A problem that impairs network performance in modern day networks.  Such a pain to resolve.

07:20 <PinkieShy> I'm annoyed :/

07:21 <PinkieShy> Really annoyed for one being VRC been not working all day past 2 days and all i hear is servers are stressed

07:21 <PinkieShy> Plus joined among us with a friend and turns out its not a regular game just everyone goofing around and i keep dying as soon as game starts..

07:22 <Cepheid> Fun.

07:22 <PinkieShy> Far from fun :(

07:22 <Cepheid> As for the VRC servers being stressed, welcome to stuff happening around popular holidays and release dates of stuff.

07:22 <PinkieShy> I want to just play among us and dying before i can do anything is making me just want to hit 'respawn' and get me out of game

07:22 <Cepheid> As for the Among Us thing..

07:23 <Cepheid> Your best bet is to find a server or three that have reasonable games and stick to them when possible.

07:23 <PinkieShy> I mean its the Among us VRChat.. I finally got in but if i leave the instance i am on.. It'll be acting up

07:26 * Ali would always be afraid of being the first dead in those games.

07:27 * Ali sits in the what is gaming corner, nothing really interests her right now.

07:29 <Cepheid> Ah, Among Us VRC.

07:34 <PinkieShy> Yes :P

07:34 <PinkieShy> Its a fan remake for a VR version..

07:36 <Cepheid> Yeah, I'm aware of it's existence.

07:36 * Ali wishes she just wasn't so scared of things. The few games she has require multiplayer to enjoy and she's just scared to ask around..

07:39 * Cepheid wanders off to take a shower. Will be back shortly.

08:06 <Cepheid> So, I found out what I've been stressing over.

08:07 <Cepheid> Last week and a half, I've been having acid reflux issues.  Turns out that I was starting to panic over it, because I've never had acid reflux go several days without any signs of going away.

08:11 <Cepheid> Hum.  Ys: Memories of Celceta.  Good game, thus far.  Interesting that they combined aspects of Mask of the Sun and Wanderers of Ys.  But it's clear Falcom tried something new with balancing, as the difficulty is very lopsided against the enemy, even on Hard.

08:19 <Cepheid> Currently as is, I have a weapon that can cause poison, paralysis(occasionally prevents monster from acting), fire(poison-like effect, only with fire damage), and freeze(prevents monster from acting).

08:20 <Cepheid> And they all have a good chance of proccing.

08:21 <Cepheid> Like, it's extremely unlikely that at least one of the four will not proc on any given hit.

08:29 *** Quits: Golden (uid250033@Pony-mioavt.c2vi.m095.067c.2001.IP) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)

08:41 * Ali flops and rolls

08:43 <Cepheid> I should max out the stats on this thing before I move on.  Just for the sake of doing it with at least one weapon in the game.

08:47 <Cepheid> Plus, it'll accelerate upgrades of future weapons anyhow.

08:47 <PinkieShy> Now to laughing my butt off to Gordon Ramsey videos.. lol

08:49 * Ali sees a video talking about pikachu's cry in yellow, seems interesting, clicks

08:49 * Ali then passes out and head explodes from too much code talk.

08:49 * Schism executes arbitrary code on Ali's copy of Yellow. o3o

08:49 <Ali> I mean I get it, there's code behind it

08:50 <Ali> But god freaking hell I'm not sitting thru 20 minutes of you babbling about stuff I understand NOTHING about

08:50 * Ali executes snug.exe on Schism

08:52 * Schism snugs the Ali right back, and offers some pretzels.

08:53 * Ali noms and curls up into Schism hard...

08:53 * PinkieShy hands Ali a pokeball with a Missingno that looks like Professor Oak.

08:54 *** Quits: Heartbreak (Heartbreak@Pony-gja4ce.mn.comcast.net) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

08:57 <Cepheid> Hum.  9/0/9/6/9/9/9/9.  Almost there.  Need 9 levels in absorb, 3 in Sp, and I'll be done of this weapon.

08:58 <Cepheid> Biggest issue is cost.  It's getting expensive to upgrade it.

09:00 <Cepheid> On the other hand, got the entire team decked out in items that increase money and rare item drops, so...

09:04 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-rmpts6.4nua.5fca.1702.2600.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

09:04 <Cepheid> I'll likely complete this game 100% either today or tomorrow.

09:07 <Cepheid> That was 50 shades of ridiculous to witness.  Attacked a level 30 enemy at level 24, yeah, it kills my lead character once, but once I got the hang on it...

09:07 <Cepheid> Kept procing freezing.  So the danged thing never got a chance to attack after that.

09:08 * Schism should get back to Trails in the Sky.

09:09 *** Joins: Golden (uid250033@Pony-mioavt.c2vi.m095.067c.2001.IP)

09:09 <Golden> I keep forgetting to check in.

09:11 * Schism offers Golden some frosted wheat cereal. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EqN6QwRW8AEJyZn?format=jpg&name=small

09:11 * Cepheid puts Freeze 9 on everyone's weapons.

09:11 <Golden> Frosted wumbo wheats

09:12 * Schism already has Freeze 9 on her apartment, doesn't need it on a weapon, too.

09:12 <Golden> You cannot freeze me I am already frozen

09:13 <Cepheid> Heh.

09:13 <Cepheid> In any case, Freeze status on enemies is more or less guaranteed, now.

09:13 <Cepheid> Rather than "likely".

09:13 <Cepheid> At least, on enemies that aren't resistant to it.

09:14 * Golden has a full restore, and is unfrozen.

09:14 <Schism> Nice of Falcom to regularly use status ailments as what they are, instead of 'oh, you're mildly poisoned, you take 10 damage a round'.

09:15 <Schism> Same as Atlus, really.

09:17 <Cepheid> Falcom actually does that with poison.  It's not very powerful, but still.

09:17 <Cepheid> It ticks fairly frequently.

09:17 <Cepheid> As does the Fire effect, so the ailments are still worth it.

09:17 <Cepheid> But Freeze and Paralysis are overpowered.

09:17 <Schism> Well, better than Final Fantasy, where poison is a very minor proc which, unless you have like 10 stacks, doesn't really make much of a difference.

09:19 <Golden> ._.

09:21 * Cepheid gets a video to demonstrate Freeze's effectiveness.

09:25 <Cepheid> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cp6gnhhZK-8&feature=youtu.be

09:26 <Cepheid> To put it into perspective, I should not be able to kill that.

09:28 <Schism> Mmm, freezelock.

09:37 <Cepheid> Hum, I need approximately 25,000 gold to finish this weapon off.

09:38 <Cepheid> At which point I think the next bit of the game will be broken open, since the remaining ability is absorb, which, given it's name, is pretty obvious what it does.

09:38 <Cepheid> Regenerates a small amount of health per hit.  At level 4, it's 4-5 HP per hit.

09:53 <Cepheid> Huzzah, fully upgraded.

09:54 <Cepheid> 'Course there was an achievement for that.

09:57 <Schism> Of course.

10:00 <Cepheid> I've heard the phrase "Be careful, I bite."  But I've never seen it in action, even in a game.

10:00 <Cepheid> Until now.

10:03 <Schism> There are a few Squeenix games with "Devour" in them.  Om nom delicious enemy stat up.

10:08 <Cepheid> Yeah, and the God Eater series has devouring and biting down on monsters as a mechanic for both collecting items and powering up.

10:09 <Cepheid> I... may have overprepared.

10:09 <Cepheid> The enemies are piddly in this place.

10:10 <Schism> It's easy to overlevel in Falcom games and then wind up just obliterating the enemies you're _meant_ to fight at that stage.

10:15 <Cepheid> This is admittedly true.

10:15 <Cepheid> And, in some cases, is even encouraged.

10:16 * Schism mms.

10:16 <Cepheid> I think when I get bored of playing the Ys series again for a time, I'll work on the other series from Falcom, Trials.

10:16 <Cepheid> Er, trails*

10:17 <Cepheid> Though, I hear that series is text heavy.

10:17 <Cepheid> Like, 3-years-worth-of-translation-time heavy.

10:17 <Schism> Trails is incredibly huge.

10:18 <Schism> Also, be sure to check every chest you open twice.  There's a fun story behind that.

10:18 <Cepheid> Yeah, it seems to be Falcom's other big series.

10:18 <Schism> Thing about Trails is, every NPC at each stage in the game has two sets of dialogue, one for the first time you speak with them, and then for the second.

10:19 <Cepheid> Heh.

10:19 <Schism> The chests all had, in the original game, something like 'This chest is now empty.'  Except it wasn't just bringing up one line, that was copied/pasted text for each individual instance of the chest.  So the translation team decided to have fun with it.

10:20 <Schism> s/instance of the//

10:29 <Schism> Well, this is certainly a take on Corona Dash.  https://twitter.com/Orin331/status/1343400351786000384

10:31 <Cepheid> Well that was easily defused.

10:34 <Cepheid> This game gives away mimics too easily.

10:34 <Cepheid> The game utilizes a randomization of monster size to give some variety to the monsters of the same species.

10:34 <Cepheid> Problem is, this also applies to mimics.

10:35 <Cepheid> Also they don't appear on the map.

10:36 <Schism> "This chest is completely full ... of nothing."

11:18 <Cepheid> Got your silver on hand?

11:19 <Cepheid> Oh FINALLY!  I can warp to any monument wherever, now.

11:19 <Cepheid> No need to warp to specific monuments to move around.

12:03 <Cepheid> Poison.  Not Poisson.

12:03 <Cepheid> ... I find it disturbing that I knew what that even was.

12:05 <Finwe> :3

12:05 * Finwe patpats Cepheid.

12:06 <Cepheid> I hate statistics.  Or, rather, I hate probability.

12:06 <Schism> Well, that was fun.  And poison forest == enemies filled with poison.

12:06 <Cepheid> Actually, that raises a question.

12:06 <Cepheid> Finwe, do you have any recommended books on statistics and probability?

12:08 <Cepheid> Essentially the problem I had with studying the topic is that the university didn't use a textbook.

12:12 <coppertiger> Good morning pones

12:13 <Finwe> Cepheid: Umm, I don't know, we had a book written by a former professor of applied mathematics at our university.

12:13 <Finwe> I think something like https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9781852338961

12:13 <Cepheid> Ah.

12:13 <Finwe> could be good.

12:13 <Cepheid> I'll also take a look around, but I'll put that at the top of the list.

12:14 <Cepheid> And yeah, don't ask how we learned statistics and probability without a textbook.  I'm pretty sure I've already covered the ineptitude of the university.

12:14 <Finwe> Or then just download the material from somewhere like https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-05-introduction-to-probability-and-statistics-spring-2014/readings/

12:15 <Cepheid> That works too.

12:16 <Finwe> The MIT course uses R programming language in addition to more traditional teaching.

12:19 <Cepheid> I also think I had a hard time with stats and prob due to the way it was taught and enforcement of... unusual rules.

12:19 <Cepheid> We weren't allowed to use calculators, for example.

12:28 * Schism discards the slime mold. Her favourite fruit is a granny smith apple.

14:33 <Cyan_Spark> PLTR is red too

14:37 <Cyan_Spark> VALE down again :(

14:48 <RazorSharpFang> I do like pie.

14:48 <LibrarianofHope> mexico city is in lockdown owo

14:48 <Schism> So is Ontario.

14:49 <Cyan_Spark> Locke

14:49 <LibrarianofHope> has it inconvienced you a lot?

14:49 <RazorSharpFang> I'm still on an isolated Island

14:49 <Finwe> Oh, which one?

14:49 <LibrarianofHope> im so gratefull my life is pretty chill at this moment owo

14:49 <RazorSharpFang> Australia

14:50 <Finwe> That counts as a continent rather than an island.

14:50 <RazorSharpFang> Boo

14:50 <LibrarianofHope> the contonent is oceania no?

14:50 <Finwe> I thought you meant Rottnest or Garden Island or something.

14:50 <LibrarianofHope> technically he is right

14:50 <Finwe> LibrarianofHope: No, it is not.

14:51 <Finwe> Oceania consists of the Pacific islands.

14:51 <Finwe> Nauru, Kiribati, Tonga and such.

14:51 <LibrarianofHope> australia is a continent?

14:51 <RazorSharpFang> I'm going to dig out a lake, pile all the dirt in the centre to make an island and then i'll be correct.

14:51 <LibrarianofHope> im awfull at geography

14:52 <Finwe> I've heard Hobart in Tasmania is nice this time of the year. o3o

14:52 <RazorSharpFang> Unless you're in the desert.

14:56 <LibrarianofHope> i need to write

14:56 <Finwe> Fox Islands, on the other hoof, might be a bit chilly at the moment.

14:57 <Finwe> I wonder whether they have foxen in great abundance there.

14:57 <LibrarianofHope> a vulpine abudance

15:10 <RazorSharpFang> Cyan_Spark, bought 1 share of PLTR 26.59 USD

15:10 <Cyan_Spark> lol

15:10 <RazorSharpFang> Big plays.

15:10 <Cyan_Spark> PLTR is down that much huh

15:10 <Cyan_Spark> Nice dip catching

15:10 <LibrarianofHope> wuts that?

15:11 <RazorSharpFang> PLTR is Palantir Technologies. A tech company in the US.

15:12 <Cyan_Spark> Didn't Citron short PLTR to 20 EOY?

15:12 <Cyan_Spark> About $6.50 to go lol

15:12 <RazorSharpFang> Something like that. Citron also shorted GME. GME is up... 8.5% today.

15:13 <LibrarianofHope> palantir? the one made by the ocolus guy?

15:14 <LibrarianofHope> after he got (bleep) by Facebook?

15:14 <LibrarianofHope> read a book on that

17:19 * Cepheid flops.

17:19 <Cepheid> Sitting right before the end of the game.

17:19 <Cepheid> But now I'm too exhausted, due to all the weird sleeping lately.

17:19 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Makenshi: Pony Metal Music: Stallionslaughter - Equestrian Diabolic [Metal] [ https://tinyurl.com/y9tn97pz ]

17:20 <Cepheid> Sleep for a couple of hours, wake up for 8-12 hours, fall asleep for 4 hours, wake up for 1 hour, fall asleep for 3 hours, awake for 12..

17:20 <Cepheid> My body feels like it's in chaos right now.  On the verge of simply just going "**** it." and resetting itself.

17:24 * Finwe hats on Angeline.

17:44 <Finwe> Cepheid: Pffft, your body is sheer blasphemy against entropy and chaos.

17:45 <Cepheid> Okay, fine.

17:45 <Cepheid> My sleep cycle feels like it's in chaos right now.

17:47 <Schism> uerghl.

17:47 <Finwe> YMM "ürghl"

17:47 <Schism> people.  when you buy clothes for other people, please make sure you save the receipts.

17:48 <Cepheid> Solution is to just deal with it, stay up for a bit longer, then use the usual methods to induce sleep.

17:48 <Finwe> Schism: Did you get clothes as Yule presents? o3o?

17:48 <Finwe> Ones that don't fit.

17:49 <Cepheid> I think he's dealing with people who bought shoes for others, who did not keep the receipts and are now trying to get refunds.

17:49 <Finwe> Cepheid: Physical exhaustion, spirits and milk with melatonin?

17:51 <Cepheid> Physical exhaustion, and sedatives in the form of quetiapine.

17:51 <Cepheid> I still can't believe maintenance doses of that stuff is 400-800mg.  Given I am knocked out from 75-100mg..

17:52 <Cepheid> I imagine 400 or more would keep me under for 24 hours straight.

17:53 <Schism> I did not, Finwe.  However, I work for a clothes company.

17:53 <Finwe> I guess there are a lot of people returning clothes then.

17:54 <Finwe> Many of them without any certificate of purchase.

17:54 <Finwe> Causing extra trouble for employees of the aforementioned clotsed company.

17:54 <Finwe> *clothes

17:54 <Schism> https://www.fimfiction.net/story/457325/hoofticuffs-day

17:55 <Schism> And of course.  Also, many believe that they can return clothing purchased at _other retailers_, when we have no clue of their provenance, let alone what method of payment used.

17:58 <Finwe> Reminds me of a person who thought that he could get free assistance with instruments bought from Thomann at the local music store.

17:59 <Schism> I know, right?

18:00 <Finwe> Roight.

18:00 <Schism> We didn't sell it to you, we didn't provide you the instrument, we're not beholden to you, but hey, maybe if you offer us $200 we might be able to look at it.

18:23 <Cepheid> ... Well, I guess that works too.

18:24 <Cepheid> That was the Ys Black Pearl.  Kinda needs to be destroyed.

22:20 <Finwe> Kittens?

22:21 <Starlight_Glimmer> Yes.

22:25 <Finwe> Neither had I. o3o
