00:03 * Lumindia snugs on ALi lots

00:03 <Lumindia> o wo

00:03 <Lumindia> Ali is soft

00:03 * Ali flops over Lumindia and yawns

00:04 * Lumindia yawns as well

00:08 <Cepheid> So, I'm gonna guess.... the reason I can't get PSO2 to start up is because I'm using an Insiders version of Windows.  Which means to get it to run, I'll have to do a complete system re-install.

00:08 <Cepheid> Since it's the weekend... nah, not gonna do it.

00:08 <PinkieShy> hihi

00:09 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/Maaylen/status/1360725620502781954 Schism.

00:11 <Schism> Hah.  Oh, those classic songs from the old days.

00:11 <Schism> (That song is now 20 years old.)

00:17 <Cepheid> Yeah, but I'm hoping that tweet's timeline blows up with people doing the entire song in that kind of writing.

01:13 <Cepheid> Dang, Capcom, what's up with your servers today?

01:15 <Ali> Maybe Flame Hyinard got into them and is...

01:15 <Ali> BURN BURN BURN TO THE GROUND BURN

01:19 <Lumindia> Ali: BURN to the BURN to BURN to the ground!

01:20 <Lumindia> also Ali abusing that mod status, I see

01:20 * Lumindia boops the silly pony

01:20 <Ali> Isn't it great not to have caps lock block :P

01:20 <Cepheid> Tell me about it. :P

01:20 <Ali> I don't abuse it though

01:20 <Lumindia> hecc

01:20 * Lumindia boops Ali again

01:20 * Lumindia curls up with, is super tired

01:20 * Ali puffycheeks

01:20 * Ali isn't a booptoy

01:21 * Ali also puts speed 2's into her pulverizers cause they're not crushing stone fast enough.

01:21 <Ali> Have a crafting speed of 4.4 and its still not enough.

01:31 * Angeline boops Ali's nose.

01:31 * Ali squeaks at Angeline

01:31 * Angeline boops Ali again!

01:31 * Ali starts to puffycheek, she's not a booptoy

01:42 * Schism boops the Ali with a grilled cheese sammich, with ketchup.

01:43 * Ali noms the sammich grumpily

01:43 * Schism sagenods. "Everyone loves grilled cheese."

01:52 * Dappled is confused by ketchup on grilled cheese. Do you mean tomato soup?

01:54 <Angeline> you know what's really good/

01:54 <Angeline> even better than grilled cheese?

01:54 <Angeline> make some toast

01:54 <Angeline> apply peanut butter

01:54 <Angeline> break sammich up into soup

01:54 <Angeline> also works with chicken noodles

01:54 <Schism> Dappled: No, you just dip grilled cheese into ketchup... is good.  Though tomato soup is also good.

01:55 <Schism> Also, um.  Peanut butter ... not so much.

01:55 * Angeline sadface

01:55 <Angeline> it's so yummy though

01:55 <Schism> I fear that I'd have to force myself to eat that... ^^;

01:56 <Schism> Which is odd coming from a girl whose second favourite sandwich is a peanut butter, grape jelly and bacon.

01:56 <Angeline> You get salty from the soup and umami from the peanut butter, as well as just a bit of sweet from the bread

01:56 * Angeline mmmms.

01:58 * Angeline pokes Schism

01:58 * Schism headtilts.

01:59 <Angeline> Would you eat a do-it-yourself burrito made of mac + cheese and chicken tenders

01:59 <Schism> You must be a fan of Scalzi.

01:59 <Angeline> who?

01:59 <Schism> John Scalzi, who makes up burritos of... frightening nature.

02:00 * Schism waits for the Jumbo Cactpot. Holds Lumindia up so that they can call out the numbers.

02:00 * Angeline steals all of Schism's GP.

02:01 * Angeline uses it to buy chocobos.

02:02 * Angeline rides all around the world on her chocobos.

02:02 * Schism squeaks. "You don't buy chocobos in FFXIV. Well, you sort of can. You mostly buy breeding certificates."

02:39 <Ali> Wall of Flesh

02:39 <Ali> I tend to get trolled by that thing.

02:39 <Cepheid> Terraria Boss.

02:40 <Ali> Usually by running out of platform and fall take a lava bath

02:43 <Schism> Ah, that was fun.  A nice quarter-hand of mahjong, played with folks who were pleasant and reasonable even when we were losing.

02:44 <Schism> (Just one wind.)

02:48 <Schism> I still suck at hand compo.

04:56 * Ali flops over the RazorSharpFang

04:56 <RazorSharpFang> Hey heys Ali

04:57 * Ali is working on blocks 4 and 5 in Factorio.

04:57 <RazorSharpFang> Is it happening?

04:57 <Ali> 4 has a bit of a....landfill problem

04:58 <Ali> And no not really

04:58 <Ali> Just a lot of blasted idling

04:58 <Ali> I have a stone facility set up to make glass/bricks/tablets

04:59 <Ali> But dang I need multiple input trains else when in demand it goes empty fast.

05:00 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah, you'll need either lots of trains, really fast trains, or big trains for big moves.

05:04 <Ali> Will have to see when the system is actually working and not just stockpiling

05:36 * Ali flops over RazorSharpFang. Unicorn has iron and copper plates being made now, along with the three types of processed stone. Now isn't sure if she should go for steel or for green circuits.

05:39 <RazorSharpFang> I think we did steel before green circuits

05:40 <Ali> Well you have to understand a few things

05:41 <Ali> I have far fewer resources at the moment and haven't launched a rocket cause I feel like that is something that keeps me pinned on this stupid small useless factory.

05:41 <Ali> I have like 10 techs that don't need space science to run, and one is the endless bot swarm one.

05:42 <RazorSharpFang> Ah yeah

05:44 <Ali> So to prevent a stagnation and all that I thought I'd focus on trying to get some mass productionish areas set up

05:44 <Ali> But the setting I gave the world and my luck on what spawned has kinda mucked things up a little bit.

05:46 <RazorSharpFang> You could go to space where there's lots of space without ore patches

05:47 <Ali> And space has a problem of needing bajillions of scaffolding

05:47 <Ali> And air

05:47 <Ali> And needing bullettrains to even run a network up there.

05:47 <RazorSharpFang> The scaffolding will use up those ores that are in your way too

05:47 * Ali needs to make those products first before mass scaffolding can begin :P

05:49 <Ali> I still need a steel line and a plastic line to worry about LDS

05:50 <Ali> Then for the Scaffolding I need heat shieldings along with sulfur

05:56 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah, the sulfur was annoying. I don't usually have sulfur on the bus, just the acid

06:01 <Ali> Yeah I'm not overly fond of sulfer needing to be belted around

06:01 <Ali> Just getting enough cells to get a rocket going is a massive headache

06:02 <Ali> Since I need LDS, RCUs, blue circuits, and then finally rocket fuel

06:02 <Ali> And for them to not be a complete waste, you need a satalite shoved in there too.

06:08 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah

06:10 <Ali> So that's like... five more cells?

06:10 <Ali> Cause steel, green/red/blue circuits

06:10 <Ali> Oil factory

06:10 <Ali> Plastics

06:10 * Ali blehs softly.

06:16 <RazorSharpFang> I have a new problem

06:16 <RazorSharpFang> We have too much rocket fuel

06:18 <Ali> Turn it into liquid rocket fuel

06:18 <Ali> and launch pointless rockets

06:18 <Ali> Problem solved

06:23 <RazorSharpFang> But that consumes a lot of rocket parts

06:26 <Ali> Didn't say it was useful :P

06:27 *** Quits: NitroTheFurry (Nitro@Pony-l010ql.mi.comcast.net) (Connection closed)

06:28 <RazorSharpFang> I do wish I could do something more useful with vulcanite...

06:28 <RazorSharpFang> I just have 154k blocks of vulcanite sitting around

06:28 *** Joins: NitroTheFurry (Nitro@Pony-l010ql.mi.comcast.net)

06:29 <Ali> Using it to multiply resources?

06:30 <RazorSharpFang> Already doing that, still drowning in vulcanite

06:31 <RazorSharpFang> Our problem is that the planet is vulcanite-dominant, and the core driller spits out mostly vulcanite

06:34 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe I'll turn it into liquid rocket fuel and just empty the fluid container when/if it fills up

06:48 <Ali> How is the home planet vulcanite dominant?  You just get a little from the core mine driller.

06:50 <RazorSharpFang> This is not my home planet

07:17 * Ali hisses at ConfusionRift for trying to say it.

07:19 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali. He hates it just as much.

07:19 * Ali leans into

07:25 <ConfusionRift> Wait... (frantically looks for key dates)

07:27 <ConfusionRift> Okay... I'm safe. If it was a key date, that would be it.

07:40 * Dappled chews on a stick.

07:44 * Ali grags Dappled and snugs on hard

07:44 * Dappled snugs Ali back.

07:49 <Dappled> Apparently with windchill it's -5 F outside.

08:45 <RazorSharpFang> It's insurance, so it's services rendered.

08:45 <RazorSharpFang> Cyas

08:49 <RazorSharpFang> GME is still trading above my purchase price. I was expecting it to hit rock bottom already

09:06 * Finwe boops RazorSharpFang with ski boots.

09:07 * RazorSharpFang is booped

10:51 * ConfusionRift feels as his room goes from pleasantly fresh, to absolutely freezing.

10:59 <RazorSharpFang> How did that happen? Did you leave the window open?

11:01 <ConfusionRift> It's been open for a while now. It was just nice and fresh not that long ago. Now I'm completely covered.

11:02 <RazorSharpFang> Sounds pretty volatile

11:04 * ConfusionRift checks the weather. "What the?!"

11:05 <ConfusionRift> There's a constant breeze, temps dropped to 26F, and humidity gone up to 66%

11:06 <ConfusionRift> So about -3C.

11:06 <RazorSharpFang> That is too cold to have the window open

11:06 <ConfusionRift> Agree. Hence why I just closed it.

11:06 <RazorSharpFang> Unless you're running an entire data centre which needs air cooling

11:07 <ConfusionRift> Well, closed it as much as I could. I can't close the window fully.

13:28 <Cepheid> I've been waiting so long now that the video system for the appointment timed out.

13:28 <RazorSharpFang> uhoh

13:29 <ConfusionRift> A methyl group... doesn't alcohol fall on that category? If that's the case, yes, it would be much easier to ignite.

13:29 <RazorSharpFang> `the fuel does not vaporize easily` yet it has a flash point of 4 C???

13:31 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe they just mean in comparison to gasoline

13:34 <RazorSharpFang> Apparently it burns cleanly into carbon dioxide and water if it's given enough oxygen

14:01 <Cyan_Spark> Razor the investor: Sunday Night Live

14:02 <Cyan_Spark> ((Valentine's Day edition))

14:02 <RazorSharpFang> Hey heys. Did you do good stuff on Visual Studio?

14:02 <Cyan_Spark> *crowd oohs*

14:02 <Cyan_Spark> đź‘€ Razor be spying

14:02 <RazorSharpFang> It's listed on discord

14:02 <Cyan_Spark> Yes :P

14:02 <Cyan_Spark> Was working on some game mechanics

14:04 <Cepheid> Used to.

14:04 <Cepheid> But I've since switched to VSCode.

14:05 <RazorSharpFang> I've deposited some amounts into the brokerage which came from work-pay. That'll let me make even more plays without risking a margin-call.

14:05 <RazorSharpFang> How is VSCode compared to Visual Studio?

14:05 <Cyan_Spark> VSCode is lighter and launches quicker

14:05 <Cepheid> That.

14:05 <Cepheid> It's also not as fully-featured, but it gets the job done quite well.

14:05 <RazorSharpFang> Does it let you do projects with auto-complete like Blazor?

14:06 <Cepheid> Yes.

14:06 <Cepheid> Your projects are, in this case, simply folders, nothing special like project files, etc.

14:06 <RazorSharpFang> Does it integrate well with Team Foundation ?

14:06 <Cepheid> I have no idea.  But I would assume an extension exists for that.

14:07 <Cepheid> It already integrates with Git, so..

14:07 <Cepheid> Also, rocket re-usability = More parts recovered from launch.  We're up to 50 +/- 10, instead of 24 +/- 10.

14:07 <RazorSharpFang> That does make rocket trips more efficient. Still need rocket fuel of course.

14:07 <Cepheid> Yes.

14:09 <Cepheid> We can in theory go up to 100% reusability, probably 110% to ensure a maximum of 100 parts guaranteed, but that's an extreme cost.

14:19 <Cepheid> An estimated 2,097,150 science packs needed.

14:19 <Cepheid> I wish I was kidding.

14:19 <RazorSharpFang> That is a lot of science yeah

14:20 <Cepheid> And we're producing them at a pace of "plodding"

14:22 <Finwe> You should probably accelerate to "shuffling".

14:38 <Cepheid> I'm trying to.

14:42 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/BPkvicX.png This is what it takes for astrometrics research as is.

14:44 <RazorSharpFang> That's a fair amount.

14:49 <Cepheid> The research I'm doing will cut down on the number of those red things along the bottom.

17:30 <Finwe> Here you usually get double wage on Sunday, plus something extra for night shifts.

17:30 <Cepheid> That'd be too good of a thing for companies to do here.

17:31 <Cepheid> You know, at this point, what we use here in North America?  I'm not even sure it's capitalism anymore, at least the original definition of it.

17:32 <Schism> It's still capitalism.  It's just that the rules have been written by the people who have money.

17:33 <Cepheid> Like I said.

17:33 <Cepheid> Not the original definition.

17:33 <Schism> Finwe: I get extra pay for working weekends, albeit only a little.  Public holidays get 2.5x pay, though, and there are a couple of them.

17:33 <Cepheid> They've been rewritten by the people who have money.

17:34 <Schism> I dunno, depends on how you define it.  If capitalism can be read as the staggeringly Calvinistic theory that money belongs to those who have it, then it fits like hand in glove.

17:35 <Schism> The ostensible definition is that of 'equal pay for equal work', but that certainly doesn't hold water by any modern practice.

17:36 <Cepheid> That's what I mean by the original definition here.

17:37 <Cepheid> Ye know...

17:38 <Cepheid> I wonder, why Glavenus only?  Mizu I can understand not being in World due to it's body, same with the skeleton for Gammoth not being in the game.  But what about Astalos?  That's a bipedal wyvern type.

17:38 <Cepheid> Basically thunder rathian.

17:53 <ADragonDreaming> oh, I see that the festival of joy is back again.

17:54 <Cepheid> Yep.

17:57 <Cepheid> Doc called me to finish appointment.

17:57 <Cepheid> He apparently didn't notice he had an 8 AM appointment.

17:57 <Cepheid> Anyhoo..

17:58 <Cepheid> He thinks based on the description, that it's walking pneumonia.

19:31 <Finwe> Miss Ali.

19:31 * Finwe doffs his hat.

19:31 * Ali doffs over Finwe and yawns

19:31 * Finwe puts a carrot into Ali's gaping muzzle.

19:33 * Ali noms carrot, then Finwe tail

19:35 * Finwe tail-wiggles!

19:35 <Finwe> !plot

19:35 <DerpyBot> *wigglewiggle*

19:35 <Finwe> *wigglewiggle*

19:41 * Finwe offers a warm sandwich with tomato, onion, pulled pork and cheese to Schism.

19:42 <Finwe> A strategically sound move to consume all meat before Lent.

20:16 <Schism> I'm a lapsed Catholic.  I get to eat all the meat, fats, etc. I want during Lent.  But I will still be having pancakes on Shrove Tuesday.

20:19 <Finwe> I am not Catholic, but I still can observe Lent.

20:19 <Schism> This is true.  The idea of giving up a vice is certainly not unique thereto.

20:20 <Finwe> Our local tradition suggests pea soup, pancakes, Shrove buns and Swedish punch.

20:21 <Schism> Sounds a fine way to use up the fats.  And pancakes are a tradition even here in Canada and the US.

20:21 <Finwe> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semla

20:21 <Finwe> The bun.

20:21 <Finwe> And the arrak liquour: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punsch

20:22 <Schism> Interesting...!

20:22 <Finwe> Or is it "arrack" in English?

20:22 <Finwe> The name comes from the Sanskrit word for "five", which is the number of ingredients.

20:24 <Finwe> Arrack, water, fruit (usually lemon), sugar and spices (I use nutmeg, tea and sometimes whisky).

20:24 * Schism nodnods.

20:28 * Schism then sighs, and heads towards the last hour-and-a-half of her day.

20:28 <Finwe> The pancake is made in oven: https://receptfavoriter.se/sites/default/files/ugnspannkaka_flaskpannkaka_1060.jpg

20:29 <Schism> It's in a pan, that counts.

20:29 <Ali> /me flops over Schism and noms

20:29 <Finwe> The ones that are made in a frying pan are called plättor.

20:29 <Schism> For once, I don't want the crunchy bits, though.  Also, squeak.

20:29 * Finwe noms on Ali's extra space.

20:39 <PinkieShy> Insomia hit me last night.. Didn't sleep.. Went to church and came home at 12 and been asleep since.

20:40 <Finwe> Must have been boring sermon.

21:55 <Cepheid> I kinda just want to curl up in the bathtub and run the shower.  That's how this fatigue feels.

22:29 * Finwe sails his ship to Blood Island, but is faced by a mutiny once there.

22:34 <Lumindia> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRSpaLObDL4

22:34 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about when you have a hunting horn main in your squad

22:38 * Finwe hats on Ali.

22:39 * Ali squeaks

22:49 <Finwe> Quoth the Ali, "Squeak!"

22:49 <Cepheid> Pretty accurate, Lumindia.  Wonder if that'll remain for Rise, what with the changes.

22:56 * Dappled sniffs at Finwe's ship... Is pirate ship?

22:56 <Finwe> Indeed. The "Sea Cucumber".

22:57 <Lumindia> sata andagi

22:57 <Finwe> I defeated the dread pirate Rottingham just to get my ship taken by the mutineers.

22:58 <Schism> Mlemhngsdhbxvcblih.

22:58 <Lumindia> you okay Schism?

22:58 * Finwe applies ROT-13 to Schism.

22:58 <Schism> I'm fine.  Finished work, went to the store for a moment, now am back and waiting for my hands to defrost.

22:58 <Dappled> So... Sid Meier's Pirates?

22:58 * Lumindia holds Schism's hands to warm them up, so scandaloud

22:58 <Lumindia> scandalous*&

22:58 <Finwe> Dappled: No, Curse of Monkey Island. o3o

22:59 * Schism is at roughly -273.15C.

22:59 * Dappled only played Escape on the PS2. That proved that he was a dum dum and he gave up.

22:59 * Lumindia gives Dappled a single sticky note

22:59 <Finwe> I do have Pirates, though… for Commodore Amiga.

22:59 * Dappled puts the note on his forhead.

23:00 <Finwe> "Zyrzuatfquokipoyvu?"

23:00 <Finwe> Still makes no sense.

23:01 <Finwe> ROT-19?

23:02 <Finwe> "Fexfagzlwauqovueba."

23:02 <Finwe> Could be some specifically Canadian word.

23:02 <Cepheid> It's not.

23:03 <Finwe> Are you sure? It could be the feeling that overcomes you when you notices that you're in the middle of a forest with just some maple syrup and a couple of mooses to keep you company.

23:03 <Finwe> "I'm feeling all fexfagzlwaqovueba."

23:04 <Finwe> s/wa/wau/

23:07 <Schism> Let's say that's plausible, and leave it at that.

23:07 <Finwe> Oh, we'll be celebrating both Shrove Tuesday and Chaoflux this Gregorian week.

23:07 <Finwe> "Today is Sweetmorn, the 46th day of Chaos in the YOLD 3187."

23:08 <Finwe> That means that Chaoflux is on Friday.

23:09 <Finwe> And then it's St. Tib's Day a tenday later.

23:20 <Finwe> Bedtiem? :3

23:20 <Finwe> !lullaby

23:20 * DerpyBot carries Finwe off to bed

23:20 * DerpyBot tucks Finwe in and hums a lullaby

23:20 <Finwe> !shoo

23:20 * DerpyBot sways from side to side, quietly humming "shoo be doo shoo shoo be doo"
