00:00 <Finwe> Good evening, my little ponies.

00:05 <Schism> rAdm. Finwe.
00:05 * Schism doffs her pickle.
00:05 <Schism> Gotta love swede.
00:07 * Finwe offers a slice of pancake with raspberry jam to Schism.
00:08 <Finwe> Oh, I did that already.
00:08 <Finwe> 'Twas quite delicious, vanilla and cinnamon suit pancake rather well.

00:09 <Schism> They do indeed. I'll usually put in a splash of vanilla and a bit of cinnamon when I make buttermilk pancakes.

01:15 <Schism> I know how you feel...
01:15 * Schism also flings a cat at Sunstar.
01:15 <Ali> Playing V huh?
01:16 <Schism> Just reading up on it.
01:16 <Ali> The gameboy Megaman games were pretty fun
01:16 <Ali> Also with WoF, I tend to run out of runway, or just die in a stupid way.
01:17 <Ali> My best weapons are melee based, and its hard to just hug the thing with all the hungry around it.
01:19 <Cepheid> Wall of Flesh is not really meant to be meleed. Even the weakest ranged weapon on a non-melee class is probably preferable to a melee weapon.
01:20 <Ali> Well that's what's strange
01:20 <Ali> Cause the melee weapons have 40-60 damage
01:20 <Ali> but ranged and the like are only 25-30
01:20 <Ali> But then again
01:20 <Ali> The thing is stupid weak to dynamite
01:22 <Schism> Hmm. So Enker is weak to being blown up. Good to know. o3o;

11:00 <Lumindia> hecc
11:00 * Shadowed sticks her tongue out at Lumindia. Then hugs.
11:00 <ConfusionRift> There's a lot that can affect emulation. Could be the video codec, the renderer, audio codec, etc.
11:01 <ConfusionRift> PS2 emulation also requires a rather beefy system as well, even in "potato mode".
11:02 <Shadowed> Okay, but why though? It's not exactly top tier hardware/graphics anymore.
11:03 * Shadowed 's computer is capable of running games that run on current gen consoles at comparable graphics.
11:04 <ConfusionRift> You're emulating. It's different from playing games made for PC. Your system is trying to emulate another system in order to play games.
11:04 <ConfusionRift> With some consoles just being a pain to replicate, requiring more out of a system.

11:06 * Lumindia brushes the Shadowed pony
11:06 * Shadowed pony purrs
11:06 <Finwe> With most of the consoles having mainline processors and what not, there's not much need of emulation.
11:06 <Finwe> s/of/for/
11:07 <Finwe> Graphics processing maybe?
11:07 <ConfusionRift> There's really no point on emulating new systems, especially with more popular games being on multiple platforms, including PC.
11:08 <Shadowed> If not for the fact that the games I want to emulate aren't being sold first party anymore, I'd agree with you. But I have a desire nostalgia gaming.
11:08 <ConfusionRift> Or said games are sold at ridiculous prices due to collector's value.

11:09 * Shadowed paid 60 dollars for a used copy of Skies of Arcadia on the Dreamcast in the past two years. The trick is finding them in used game shops and not listed online.
11:10 <ConfusionRift> I'm not paying $300 for a game that was at one point at Game Stop for $5.
11:10 <Finwe> Hmm, not graphics processing either, e.g. PS5 and new XBOX have AMD GPU:s.
11:11 <ConfusionRift> Yarp.
11:18 <ConfusionRift> They started doing that to cut some of the cost in production (cough), and to make parts more mainline.
11:28 <Shadowed> What I just heard is that I can make my own ps5 and for cheaper... Now how to get legally get ahold of that bios...
11:28 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, there's where things get very complicated.
11:29 <ConfusionRift> At the very least, you could get a really cheap used XBOX1 S, and use that as an emulation box. Things aren't as easy with the PS5, with the firmware issue. And the Switch uses proprietary hardware.
11:31 <Lumindia> yar har fiddle dee dee
11:33 * Finwe noms on Lumindia.
11:38 * Lumindia noms back
11:38 <Lumindia> Hecc
11:39 * Shadowed thinks exclusivity deals should expire when the company moves onto a new console generation, at least for existing games. Sure you could do a clause for new installments being linked to the company, but existing games should be able to move to other markets.
11:42 <ConfusionRift> Or at the very least make backwards compatibility more abroad. Or just release their hands of certain games, ESPECIALLY games that are both out of print and not being ported.
11:42 <Shadowed> That.
11:42 <Lumindia> "But muh virtual consoles"
11:43 <ConfusionRift> They aren't even there! ._.
11:43 <Shadowed> ^
11:44 <Finwe> À propos games, it's 30 years since the release of Lemmings today.
11:44 <ConfusionRift> And don't get me started on them releasing ports exclusively on their game streaming services.
11:45 <ConfusionRift> Unfortunately, Ratchet & Clank and the Sly series are there.
11:45 <Shadowed> Oh look, I can stream a game that I can't install locally so my experience is tied directly to my ISP.
11:46 * Shadowed glares at the PSNow Ratchet and Clank selection. Nothing before PS3 and not all of that.
11:46 <Shadowed> That's why I set sail.
11:46 * Finwe starts his FS-UAE.
11:47 <Shadowed> Fail Safe United Arabs Emirate?
11:47 <ConfusionRift> And I shall not bother you for it, and salute you for doing so. Because that's dumb. And I don't think it's even the PS3 ports. Then again, those left a lot to be desired.
11:48 <Finwe> Shadowed: A fork of WinUAE
11:48 * Shadowed begins to assume this linux speak.
11:48 <Finwe> UAE originally stands for Unusable Amiga Emulator.
11:48 <ConfusionRift> Nothing ignites me more than having games run at 1080p, and have cutscenes at 480i.
11:49 <Finwe> It was unusable because of its inability to boot.
11:49 <Shadowed> Yeah, that's irratating.
11:50 <Finwe> Later on, it became Unix Amiga Emulator, and now the U mainly stands for nothing, but it could be Universal Amiga Emulator or Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator.
11:50 <Finwe> Or Ultimate Amiga Emulator.
11:54 * ConfusionRift opens a lockup of police confiscations and finds a lot of ammo. "Sir, you made a grave mistake. That was too easy." Finds that 1/3 of it is shotgun ammo. "Sir, you REALLY made a grave mistake." :P

12:40 <Cepheid> ... People are attempting to blame wind turbines for the reason that Texas is out of power.
12:43 <Shadowed> Right, not because Texas isn't on the national power grid. Or because there's an unprecedented snowstorm covering the state.

13:24 <ConfusionRift> Funny thing is they didn't go after the two Deathclaws that were trying to impale them. They went after me. Ran off unarmed in hopes they would stop chasing and firing. Deathclaws changed target and went after me, causing the BoS to go after them. I killed them, and then they started firing again. Yeah, it spiraled down for them at that point.
13:24 <Cepheid> Razor: Are you sure your system isn't running in some sort of powersaving mode? Check the power settings on your PC.

18:38 <Cepheid> Especially since it's guaranteed to play in Master Rank Kulve Taroth, making the battle just that much more fun.

18:44 <Cepheid> Whelp, No Man's Sky just turned into a Space Pokemon. You can capture and tame alien creatures.
18:50 *** Joins: Pony|35195 (Pony35195@Pony-taj8dp.cable.virginm.net)
18:52 * Schism looks at Cepheid. Then looks at endemic wildlife.
18:52 <Cepheid> Having trouble still?
18:53 <Schism> No, no. No harm really.
18:53 <Schism> Might drop by the office this afternoon, come to think, on general principles...
18:53 <Cepheid> Seriously, just expedition from the wildspire wastes camp 1 to the ancient forest and back. You should find the crakes on one of the various herbivores outside the wildspire wastes camp.
18:54 <Schism> Later tonight, then.

18:56 <Cepheid> It occurs to me that I'm worrying about performance just a tad too much.
18:57 <Cepheid> I'm able to draw 3.2 million 10x10 pixel quads a second and maintain a framerate of ~500 on this laptop.
18:58 <Cepheid> That's way more than I suspect I'll ever need.
18:59 * LibrarianofHope glomps Ali
19:00 * Ali splats

19:21 <Starlight_Glimmer> I just finished setting up new backup servers.
19:21 <Starlight_Glimmer> Net capacity over 350 TiB
19:22 <Starlight_Glimmer> I'm amused we're getting to the point where using PiB as a unit actually makes sense.
19:22 * Ali sits on Starlight_Glimmer
19:23 <LibrarianofHope> Petabites, hundred teras no?
19:24 <LibrarianofHope> storage grows contantly, its the normal pattern
19:24 <Starlight_Glimmer> Hundred? No. More like 1 PiB = 1024 TiB
19:24 <LibrarianofHope> heck
19:24 <LibrarianofHope> thtas a lot of space
19:24 <Starlight_Glimmer> (the i is what signals 1024 instead of 1000)
19:25 * Starlight_Glimmer licks Ali
19:25 <LibrarianofHope> what do you need that much space for?
19:25 <Ali> I don't even use 200GB of storage, why need more.
19:25 <Starlight_Glimmer> Of course Brushie probably laughs at me. They deal with giant storage arrays all the time.
19:25 <Starlight_Glimmer> LibrarianofHope: Backups :P
19:25 <LibrarianofHope> of what?
19:25 <Starlight_Glimmer> Everything
19:26 <LibrarianofHope> you work for a goggle drive kinda thing?
19:26 <Starlight_Glimmer> They're deduplicated mind you. So backing up the same file only uses space up once.
19:26 <Starlight_Glimmer> No.
19:26 <LibrarianofHope> you have the area 51 files?
19:26 <Starlight_Glimmer> We do software for the educational sector.
19:27 <LibrarianofHope> that makese sense, but i wanted aliens
19:27 <Starlight_Glimmer> Some companies too, but mainly educational.
19:28 <LibrarianofHope> a smarthphone today holds more space than an old room size computer
19:28 <LibrarianofHope> imagine in 50 years
19:28 <Starlight_Glimmer> ~2.4 million users
19:28 <LibrarianofHope> who is brushie?
19:29 <LibrarianofHope> how is brushie?
19:29 <Starlight_Glimmer> The horse that must be brushed and will horribly murder you if you don't brush your teeth
19:29 <LibrarianofHope> colgate?
19:29 <Starlight_Glimmer> I say Brushie to avoid the ping, yes :P
19:29 <LibrarianofHope> i was glimglams idea
19:30 * LibrarianofHope hides behind ali
19:31 <Schism> ... Cepheid.
19:31 <Schism> qntm is very good at making us feel stupid. https://twitter.com/qntm/status/1362116938726596613
19:34 <Schism> Rest in the throes of Tartarus, Mr. Limbaugh.
19:53 <Finwe> Mlles Ali and Schism; Messrs LibrarianofHope and Starlight_Glimmer.
19:53 * Finwe doffs his hat.
19:54 <Schism> rAdm. Finwe.
19:54 <Schism> While I'm loathe to suggest that the death of a personality is often a good thing...
19:57 <LibrarianofHope> to desire death of a percieved evil person is perfectly normal as a knee jerk reaction
19:57 <LibrarianofHope> we are only human
19:58 <Finwe> Anyone whose Twitter nick is "𝑥 = {𝑥}" should be terminated instantly.
19:59 <Finwe> 𝑥 ≠ {𝑥}
20:03 <Schism> Shoes have arrived at the office... <3 So tomorrow I'll pick them up.
20:03 * Finwe noms on Schism's shoes.
20:03 <Schism> Myeep. No, don't nom! I'll be saving these for when there's not snow. https://www.converse.com/shop/p/custom-chuck-taylor-all-star-by-you-unisex-high-top-shoe/152620CSP21M_blankcanvas.html?metricId=2044843350
20:07 <LibrarianofHope> i do need shoes
20:09 * Ali also noms on Schism's shoes~
20:10 <Finwe> Umm.
20:11 * Ali grumps, why is the unicorn always cramped for space in Factorio and really can't expand without covering up massive amounts of resources.
20:17 * Schism headtilts at Finwe's umm. And also baps Ali with a smol gove.
20:17 <Schism> glove.*
20:18 * Ali grrs and noms more, baps don't help da pono.
20:20 <Finwe> Schism: I was bewildered by the stylishness, or the lack thereof, of your shoes.
20:21 <LibrarianofHope> i have to buy a new pair of shoes owo
20:21 <LibrarianofHope> i tend to wear the same as much as i can
20:21 <LibrarianofHope> no one seems to notice owo
20:28 <Schism> Finwe: That particular style is more meant to display a certain flag, though I think it'll go nicely with my black jeans.
20:31 <Finwe> Oh, the industrial engineering and management flag.
20:34 <Schism> Sure, let's go with that.
20:34 <LibrarianofHope> the trans flag reminds me of bubblegum
20:34 * Schism is of course a woman. That's it, that's all.
20:35 <LibrarianofHope> you are a girl indeed
20:35 <LibrarianofHope> you have gum?
20:35 <LibrarianofHope> i want gum
20:35 * LibrarianofHope noms ali

22:20 <Cepheid> Oooh.
22:20 <Cepheid> They revealed the volcano area of Rise.
22:20 <Cepheid> ... Confusion's favourite rock monster is back!
22:22 <Cepheid> Looks like the Rampage is a multi-monster hunt in an arena-like area.
22:22 <Cepheid> Oh dear.
22:22 <Cepheid> There's something akin to Frenzy.
22:23 <Cepheid> ... And NPC hunters.
22:23 <Cepheid> Or at least, it's implied.
22:23 <Cepheid> As the two quest maidens are seen armed with weapons to fight.
22:30 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1362164645830807554
22:32 <Cepheid> Apex status. That's what it is.
22:32 <Cepheid> Does that mean Frenzy is back?
22:32 <Cepheid> Because Frenzy is the midway state between normal and Apex.
22:43 * Ali nuu's why is Skyward Sword is coming back.
22:45 <Cepheid> I actually liked Skyward Sword.
22:47 <Cepheid> Another Splatoon.
22:51 <Ali> And Smash might as well be called Super Sword Fighter instead
22:52 <Cepheid> Yes, yes, there's too many sword fighters in Smash, we get it.
22:57 <LibrarianofHope> more fire emblem guys?
22:57 <Cepheid> Pyra and Mithra from Xenoblade 2.
22:57 <LibrarianofHope> close enough
23:01 * Cepheid sighs.
23:03 <LibrarianofHope> they are different than the other sword fighters
