06:44 <RazorSharpFang> We're in space now.

06:50 <Cyan_Spark> Razor the investor

06:50 <RazorSharpFang> Hey heys

06:50 <RazorSharpFang> Jan 15 is assignment day for me.

06:50 <Cyan_Spark> TSLA 880?

06:50 <RazorSharpFang> Really.

06:50 <Cyan_Spark> assignment on what?

06:51 <RazorSharpFang> Either AT&T or NYSE: SU now I am adding additional lower-case characters so this message will not be blocked.

06:52 <Cyan_Spark> lol

06:52 <Cyan_Spark> I got platinum at 17.8 yesterday, went to bed, and it dipped further to 17.2 while I was asleep

06:52 <Cyan_Spark> Well, can't win 'em all

06:53 <RazorSharpFang> Can't lose them all either

06:53 <Cyan_Spark> Cryto /is/ expected to dent interest in precious metals

06:54 <Cyan_Spark> In any case, I have enough liquidity to average down on platinum, or even get into gold, if I want

06:54 <RazorSharpFang> Prepared to buy some dips?

06:54 <Cyan_Spark> Gold followed platinum's trend yesterday, dipping a little in the morning, stagnating till lunch, and then sliding further

06:55 <Cyan_Spark> Should've bought the dip before the capitol incursion :p

06:56 <Cyan_Spark> Aight, naptime, catch you on Discord

06:56 <Cyan_Spark> if you wanna chat later

06:56 <RazorSharpFang> Sounds good. Nap well.

07:34 * Golden flops.

07:41 <RazorSharpFang> I am literally getting a whole 8 seconds of lag to the Factorio server.

08:00 <RazorSharpFang> I hold down the W key for half a second and I spend 8 seconds going forward somehow.

08:47 * Finwe surreptitiously noms on Ali's tail.

08:47 <Finwe> Good mornig, everypony!

08:47 * Ali noms on Finwe in return

08:48 * Finwe has a sleepy taste to him.

09:21 * Finwe feels more awake as he finishes nomming on his breakfast.

09:46 * Finwe hats on Schism of the Turnwise Ones.

09:46 * Cepheid awakens.

09:47 <Cepheid> RazorSharpFang:  No idea what's up with the lag.  I'm not sure if it's your end or mine, but given that, it sounds more like your end.

09:48 * Dappled chews on all your sticks.

09:52 <Dappled> Also I have been riding that schadenfreude (I probably failed that spelling) high all day.

09:54 <Cepheid> I'm pretty sure you got the spelling right.

09:55 * Dappled knows nothing of german spelling so is happy then.

09:59 <Finwe> Harm is Schade, joy is Freude -> Schadenfreude

10:00 <RazorSharpFang> I am quite tired now for some reason. It's strange.

10:00 <Dappled> Living takes energy that must be replinished through food and sleep.

10:00 * Dappled is currently cooking a pizza.

10:01 <Finwe> Pressing W for 8 seconds takes its toll on one's alertness.

10:08 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-n3j093.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)

10:16 <Cepheid> RazorSharpFang:  What kind of research do we want to go for?

10:16 <RazorSharpFang> I was thinking of getting the stuff that improves the recycling rate for rockets.

10:17 <Cepheid> So astronomics.

10:17 <Cepheid> So we'll need beryllium.

10:18 * Dappled chews on a conveyor belt.

10:19 <Cepheid> Of which I see no planets in this system.

10:19 <Cepheid> That have it.

10:19 * Dappled blinks then remembers that they have modded the Factorio.

10:19 <Cepheid> Time to send up some sattelites.

10:19 <Finwe> Or satellites.

10:21 <Cepheid> Okay fine I can't spell. :P

10:24 <Cepheid> Next one found a planet with... vitamelange.  THE SPICE MUST FLOW!

10:24 <Cepheid> Oooh, cryonite on that planet.

10:25 <Dappled> Okay, but alternatively, we don't approach planets with wildlife capable of eating space ships, Cepheid

10:25 <RazorSharpFang> I was hoping to increase production on our home planet before looking to other planets. I was thinking we could build a bigger main bus, made of blue-belts.

10:25 <Cepheid> For those I got railguns.

10:25 <Cepheid> Also, Razor, I just looked.

10:25 <Cepheid> The Delivery Cannon can send to outer space.

10:25 <Cepheid> Including platforms.

10:26 <RazorSharpFang> Neat.

10:26 <Cepheid> A single delivery capsule costs far less than a rocket.

10:28 <Cepheid> Ah, it can only deliver certain things.

10:28 <Dappled> Can it deliver people?

10:30 <Finwe> O Delivery Capsule, deliver us from evil.

10:30 <Cepheid> Also, the capsule is lost on landing.  And no, Dappled.

10:30 <Cepheid> Only rockets can deliver people.

10:31 <Cepheid> So, delivery cannon, good for launching basic resources, but not much else.

10:31 <Finwe> Somehow "O space rocket, deliver us from evil" doesn't sound any more reassuring.

10:32 <Cepheid> Also make sure to aim it properly.

10:32 <Cepheid> Ow.

10:32 <Dappled> me aims it at the biggest, brightest circle in the sky. What could go wrong?

10:33 <RazorSharpFang> Tesla is still above 800 USD somehow.

10:33 <Cepheid> Dappled, you'd be fine in such a case.

10:33 <Cepheid> It's not nuclear or any sort of weird power.

10:33 <Dappled> For the entire company, I need to buy it now!

10:34 <Cepheid> It'd just burn up in the sun. o3o

10:34 <RazorSharpFang> Heh

10:34 <Finwe> Hmm, it seems I need to install Julia.

10:36 * Finwe does so.

10:46 <Dappled> Oh snap, Everspace 2 is hitting early in a couple weeks.

10:46 * Dappled swishy tail.

10:56 * Finwe noms on Dappled's swishy tail.

10:57 * Dappled chews on a stick too.

11:02 * Dappled 's so glad it's the weekend and he can pretend he doesn't know his co-workers.

11:13 * Dappled goes to do dishes and go to bed like an adult.

11:32 <Cepheid> Should be good now, RazorSharpFang.

11:33 <RazorSharpFang> So, which mod is this?

11:33 <Cepheid> Manual Inventory Sorting.  Press Shift+Q to sort your inventory.  Ctrl+Q for open chest.

11:51 <Finwe> Ah-ha, Julia has cyclic integers.

11:51 <Finwe> 9223372036854775807 + 1 = -9223372036854775808

13:36 * Cepheid feels like she took too much. She doesn't even take insulin.

13:36 <Cepheid> I wonder if there's a variation of diabetes in which the body produces too much insulin.  I don't have that, obviously, but it's still a curiousity.

13:48 <Finwe> No, because too much insulin would not cause diabetes.

13:48 <Finwe> The whole term describes the symptoms, not the cause.

13:50 *** Quits: ADragonDreaming (ADra@Pony-2smjo7.20dc.fhnt.0406.2601.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

13:56 <Finwe> dia (meaning through) and bainein (to go) -> betes (something that goes, a passer)

13:58 <Finwe> Too much insulin would lead to hypoglycaemia which does not cause excessive throughput of liquid in the system.

13:59 <Finwe> So no, too much insulin would not lead to diabetes.

14:01 <Cepheid> Let me rephrase the question.

14:01 <Cepheid> Is there a condition in which too much insulin is produced?

14:04 <Finwe> Yes, it's called insulinoma.

14:05 <Finwe> Caused by a tummour of the Langerhans beta cells.

14:07 <Lumindia_> oh hey Xmen arcade game on GDQ

14:07 <Lumindia_> Welcome to Die!

14:07 <Finwe> s/m//

14:07 <Lumindia_> what?

15:25 <Finwe> Starlight time! Starlight time!

15:26 * Finwe bounces around in front of Starlight_Glimmer.

15:26 * ADragonDreaming closes some webpages.

15:26 <ADragonDreaming> I'm gratified to see correct steps being taken so far.

15:27 <Cepheid> Hmm?

15:27 <ADragonDreaming> Arrests are being made and charges are being brought.

15:28 <Cepheid> Good.

15:28 * ADragonDreaming starts the process of writing elected representatives.

15:29 <Cepheid> Wish I could do that.  Most of mine would just devolve to vitriol.

15:29 <ADragonDreaming> Mostly to point that reconciliation requires repentance, so don't talk that nonsense about unrepetentant foolks.

15:29 <ADragonDreaming> That's why I'm writing, not calling.

15:30 <Cepheid> Fair enough.

15:30 <ADragonDreaming> Over in Canada I think you could mostly realistically call for the severing of all economic ties with the chief inciter.

15:30 <ADragonDreaming> In terms of this specific instance.

15:32 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

15:32 <Cepheid> Or, asking them to encourage impeachment, among other things.

15:32 <Cepheid> Along with pressuring for criminal charges.

15:35 * Finwe arraigns Cepheid.

15:35 <Cepheid> What?

15:37 <Starlight_Glimmer> The idea of calling your representative is odd to me. I can't imagine that actually does much of anything.

15:37 <ADragonDreaming> Individually? No.

15:37 <ADragonDreaming> If a whole lot of people do it? Yes.

15:37 <ADragonDreaming> It's much like voting, in that sense.

15:38 <Finwe> Starlight_Glimmer: It actually works in the British system where each constituency elects only one representative.

15:38 <Starlight_Glimmer> Well as far as prosecution is concerned: That's not their business.

15:38 <Cepheid> So you make it their business.

15:38 <Finwe> So the representative represents the constituency, not just the party.

15:38 <ADragonDreaming> Taken in isolation, my vote does not mean a whole lot. Taken in isolation, my contact does not mean a whole lot. But that thinking writ large leads to inaction writ large.

15:39 <ADragonDreaming> I'd rather we have action writ large.

15:39 <ADragonDreaming> Thus, I must do my small part of that.

15:39 <Starlight_Glimmer> With policy changes mass calling/writing might have some effect, but after all I wouldn't change my mind because mostly ill informed people read of a script.

15:39 <Finwe> In Finland the largest constituency in parliamentary elections consists of 2/5 of the whole population.

15:39 <ADragonDreaming> That's why I'm not reading script.

15:39 <Cepheid> Right, this is treading into dangerous territory for me.

15:39 * Cepheid goes and hunts.

15:40 * Finwe rearraigns Cepheid.

15:40 <Starlight_Glimmer> Cepheid: Separation of power etc. etc. If they have influence on prosecution I'd seriously question your country's status as a modern democracy.

15:41 <Cepheid> I think you're interpreting what I stated a bit too literally.

15:42 <Cepheid> The point is to encourage that the articles of impeachment be invoked, and for the country to pursue legal proceedings against Trump over his actions.

15:42 <Starlight_Glimmer> They might be able to enact policy that changes sentencing, but that usually only goes for future offenses.

15:42 <ADragonDreaming> I believe the disconnect here is that you're thinking Cepheid is talking broadly

15:42 <ADragonDreaming> She is not. She is talking specifically, about the events of Jan 6th.

15:42 <Cepheid> ...

15:42 <Starlight_Glimmer> He hasn't been impeached yet, I have serious doubts anything will happen in the couple of days he has left.

15:43 <ADragonDreaming> The idea being that Canada should make statements and pressure the US Government to take appropriate action. That's it.

15:43 <Cepheid> Okay, where in the hell did I say to enact policy that changes sentencing?

15:43 <Cepheid> Seriously?  Where the hell did you get that from?

15:43 <Cepheid> 'Cause that's putting words into my mouth based on what I said.

15:43 * Cepheid sighs.

15:43 <Cepheid> I'll BRB.

15:43 <Starlight_Glimmer> I didn't say that

15:43 <ADragonDreaming> *ahem*

15:43 <Cepheid> "They might be able to enact policy that changes sentencing"

15:43 <Starlight_Glimmer> Correct

15:43 <Cepheid> You implied with that statement that I made such one statement.

15:44 <Cepheid> Or implication.

15:44 <Starlight_Glimmer> No

15:44 <Cepheid> Yes.

15:44 <ADragonDreaming> Ponies. Please.

15:44 <Starlight_Glimmer> There's literally not a single reference about you in that statement.

15:44 <ADragonDreaming> This is feeding a spiral.

15:44 * Finwe noms on Starlight_Glimmer's tail.

15:45 <ADragonDreaming> Please allow things to spiral *down* before attempting to continue.

15:48 <Finwe> Let's see if this system boots alright after updates.

15:48 <Cepheid> I wandered off and took some more meds.

15:49 <Cepheid> Also some bread.  *Nom*

15:50 <Finwe> It actually did, even with some changes to Nvidia drivers.

15:50 <Finwe> Linux and Nvidia don't mix especially well.

15:50 <Cepheid> They do not, no.

15:51 <Cepheid> Contrast to AMD, which has, what, 3 separate video drivers, two open-source and one proprietary, and you can switch between them easily, and even more so now with Vulkan.

15:51 <Cepheid> As AMD implemented a Vulkan layer to specify which graphics driver to use.

15:52 * Finwe nodnods.

15:53 <Cepheid> My next card will be AMD, but I'm gonna wait for prices to come down first.

15:53 <Cepheid> Which'll probably not actually happen until well after the next generation is out.

15:53 <Cepheid> In fact, it's likely to go up now.

15:54 <Cepheid> Apparently the American tariffs on Chinese products has gone into place now, and is resulting in an increase in price for video cards.

15:54 <Finwe> RX 6800?

15:54 <Cepheid> Yeah.

16:00 <Finwe> Did Canada also impose tariffs on Chinese products or are most of the distributors US-based?

16:01 <Cepheid> No, but we get most of our stuff through the US.

16:08 <Cepheid> I procced Evade Window there so many times.

16:09 <Cepheid> Still took too much damage though.

16:10 <Cepheid> In any case, Finwe, I'm mostly broke.  I can't afford a new video card.

16:11 <Cepheid> I have a few hundred on hand, but that's going towards school books, a new chair to sit in at some point, and that's about it.

16:11 <Cepheid> And current RX 6800 cards are ~$1,000 CAD before taxes.

16:14 <ADragonDreaming> Great. All the Ford dealers either are closed on Saturday or their parts department is closed on Saturday.

16:17 <ADragonDreaming> https://imgur.com/gallery/MFFJ3LS

16:17 <Cepheid> Heh.  And what's the issue with the Ford dealers?

16:19 <ADragonDreaming> So I replaced my battery in my car on ... uh ... the 28th.

16:19 <ADragonDreaming> In doing so, I fully unscrewed the nut on this weird assembly they use to tighten the clamps on the terminals.

16:19 <ADragonDreaming> Which then resulted in half of that assmebly falling inside the car, never to be seen again.

16:20 <ADragonDreaming> It appears that it's an obscure part, and only maybe the Ford dealers would have it

16:20 <ADragonDreaming> But my work schedule doesn't line up well with doing things while they're open.

16:21 <Cepheid> Fun.

16:21 <Cepheid> ... Wait, if you haven't seen it, that means the part is still inside the car somewhere, isn't it?

16:22 <Heartbreak> More screaming Alice.

16:23 <Cepheid> Only for like, 3 minutes.

16:23 <Cepheid> Then I drugged myself.

16:24 <ADragonDreaming> Yes, but I already looked for it.

16:24 <ADragonDreaming> Took out the air filter, stuck my head in as far as I could

16:24 <ADragonDreaming> i'm not about to tear the car apart.

16:25 <Cepheid> Mmm.  My concern is mostly in that it's not a good idea to have a loose part inside something complex like an engine housing.

16:25 <ADragonDreaming> Instead, it looks like I need to go pick up a replacement terminal, and then figure out how to put that in.

16:25 <ADragonDreaming> Nah, it's not in the engine.

16:25 <Cepheid> Ah.

16:25 <ADragonDreaming> It fell toward the headlight area, left side of car.

16:25 <ADragonDreaming> I think it might have fallen into a hole and now be somewhere in the wheel well?

16:26 <ADragonDreaming> or beside it.

16:28 <Cepheid> So, based on a rough comparison, it seems my PC is on par with an XBox One X.

16:28 <Cepheid> At least, as far as World is concerned.

16:28 <Cepheid> I got it running at the PS4 Pro resolution, maximum settings, and it exceeds the performance of the XBox One X, which runs at a slightly lower resolution.

16:29 <Cepheid> So, 4k mode for me! o3o

16:37 <Cepheid> Huzzah.  My new microphone works well!

16:47 <Lumindia_> \o/

17:25 * Lumindia_ is sad now

17:25 <Lumindia_> I mean, it's in your name, but why

17:25 <Heartbreak> So that you'll put up a broken heart icon.

17:25 <Lumindia_> I don't have one

17:25 <Heartbreak> D:

17:26 <Lumindia_> but I can do </3

17:27 <Heartbreak> Alt + 128148 ö Aw... fetlocks...

17:27 <Heartbreak> 💔

17:28 <Heartbreak> Bamb.

17:28 <Heartbreak> That alt code is invalid.

17:28 <Heartbreak> 💔💔💔 Broken heart cookies. Broken heart cookies for Lumindia_ and Schism and Cepheid.

17:28 <Heartbreak> And all the mares.

17:28 <Lumindia_> wait what

17:29 <Heartbreak> 💔 That's what. Here.

17:29 <Lumindia_> ... colored icons in my IRC?

17:31 <Cepheid> Font stuff.

17:32 <Cepheid> Fonts can have coloured glyphs now, it's not just monochrome anymore.

17:32 <Cepheid> What you're seeing is likely the emoji version.

17:35 * Schism uses a monochrome, monospaced font.

17:35 <Lumindia_> huh

17:35 <Lumindia_> neat

17:39 <Cepheid> Benefits of unicode.

17:39 <Cepheid> Unlike ASCII, it's capable of representing every written language out there, and then some.

17:39 <Cepheid> But the fonts need to support the relevant character set.

17:39 <Cepheid> However, these days that's moot.  You can have multiple fonts installed and in use for certain situations.

17:40 <Cepheid> For example, I have a number of different fonts installed and in use for rendering Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and English character sets.

20:59 * Dappled has much wisdom.

21:00 * Starlight_Glimmer might fry Dappled

21:00 <Dappled> That would be cannibalism.

21:02 <Dappled> Although that would explain why there were so few ponies living in Starlight_Glimmer's village and why they were so terrified to try and leave.

21:03 <Dappled> Headcanon accepted.

21:03 <Starlight_Glimmer> heresy!

21:04 <Starlight_Glimmer> Of course I'd send you through Twilight's portal first

21:09 * Ali headtilts at PinkieShy

21:09 <PinkieShy> Surprisingly i just got notified by Steam (I hope it was really them) said i got a unicorn badge and 800 points now.

21:09 <PinkieShy> Kinda cool :P

21:10 * Ali never gets badges on steam, not worth the trouble to get cards

21:10 * Dappled just plays games and doesn't pay attention to the cards.

21:22 <Dappled> You know what, I've gotten enough use out of Nexus over the years, I'm going to take the plunge and give them money.

21:30 <Dappled> Or because it's out country my card is just auto declining.

21:30 * Dappled grumblies.

21:57 * Dappled bets this is a problem for people in the EU. Although I love the idea of this becoming a problem post Brexit and all the British going "I didn't expect this!"

21:59 <Lumindia_> I'm installing Hades

21:59 <Dappled> Good.

21:59 * Dappled still needs to complete a Heat 32 run.

21:59 * Lumindia_ has no idea what that means apart from "IT HARD, YO!"

22:00 <Dappled> After a certain point, you get customizeable difficulty (Though you start with this on Hell Mode, do not start on Hell Mode.) There are rewards for runs of 8 16 and 32.

22:04 * Cepheid flops back from dinner. o3o

22:05 <Lumindia_> so you could, like, set damage modifiers, how aggressive enemies are, how MANY enemies there are, and such?

22:05 <Lumindia_> \

22:05 <Dappled> Basically yeah.

22:08 <Dappled> It is several hours of gameplay in before you unlock it though unless your winning every single attempt you make from the first time.

22:09 <Lumindia_> so bash my head against a brick wall for a while

22:09 <Lumindia_> I mean, that's what these kinds of games are

22:09 <Dappled> It's a rougelike, yeah.

22:12 <ADragonDreaming> roguelike

22:12 <Dappled> Nah. It's like that thing you put on your cheeks.

22:12 * Dappled sticks his tongue out at ADragonDreaming.

22:17 * Cepheid looks at event quests.

22:18 * Angeline teaches Dappled the ways of Godhood 80% and Aspect of Guan Yu

22:19 * Dappled headtilts at Angeline.

22:20 <Angeline> Get Godhood to 80

22:20 <Angeline> Try Aspect of Guan Yu

22:20 <Angeline> Try Heat 32

22:20 <Dappled> Okay, but I would have to turn on God Mode.

22:22 <Lumindia_> This game's already a treat now that I've got a handle on the combat

22:26 <ADragonDreaming> I tried Aspect of Guan Yu. Then Charon destroyed me.

22:26 <ADragonDreaming> I can't get godhood to 80% because I keep winning.

22:27 <ADragonDreaming> I'll do Aspect of Guan Yu at some point, and just avoid the Charon fight.

22:29 <Angeline> lol

22:29 <Angeline> Just return all your Darkness and turn on Heightened Security

22:29 <Angeline> Then get trapped to death

22:32 * Cepheid yawns.

22:32 <Cepheid> I gather dinner is in a little bit for you ADra?

22:32 <ADragonDreaming> around 60ish

22:33 <ADragonDreaming> *6ish

22:33 <Cepheid> Ah.

22:33 <ADragonDreaming> ther'es time for one hunt, prolly

22:33 <Cepheid> Want to do a Barioth event quest?

22:33 <ADragonDreaming> Sure

22:33 <Cepheid> Same session ID.

22:50 * Dappled giggles happily. Fishing spot in Hades room.
