04:32 <Cepheid> My cat, everyone: I go to the washroom, he follows me, gets locked in with me. Not surprisingly, he wants out, and scratches at the door. When I open the door, he just sits there, tail waving back and forth, staring at me. He doesn't even try to leave.

05:12 <Cepheid> EA is holding a hiring conference at my university. I wonder how many microtransactions I'll have to pay just to get through the front door.
05:17 <Schism> For 3,700 EA points, you can get a sticker.
05:18 <Schism> Alice, do you really even want to bother? If you think your life is bad now, imagine how bad it'd be under EA.
05:18 <Cepheid> I wouldn't mind being back on campus to get stuff done, wander around a bit and all that, but no, I would not want to do that even to visit an EA hiring conference.

05:22 <Cepheid> Agreed.

05:26 <Cepheid> First time, looking for one of the cats.

09:31 * Shadowed belatedly wiggles. Playing Returnal.
09:32 * ConfusionRift went back to Destiny 2... despite his complaints.
09:33 <ConfusionRift> I'm still upset by the changes, but meh. Some friends still play it.
09:37 <Koopz> i gotta admit i underestimated their numbers a bit (yellow names are my armies, red is the enemy that popped out of the void) https://koopz.rocks/s/2021-06-03_11-36-19.jpg
09:39 <ConfusionRift> "Popped out of the void". Man, that ain't cooh.
09:39 <Finwe> Koopz: And there's this Unbekanntes Gelände attacking from the right flank. o3o
09:40 <Koopz> well technically it's not the void but the warp :D
09:40 <Finwe> Wait, is the enemy red?
09:40 <Koopz> yes
09:40 <Finwe> So the enemy han unknown terrain supporting them on their left flank.
09:41 <Koopz> it was an unrelated tooltip i managed to capture in the screen
09:41 <Finwe> However is it unknown when you know that it is tundra?
09:42 <Koopz> the screen is also cropped so i probably had my cursor hovering over a locked region hidden in the fog of war i actually haven't seen yet
09:42 <Koopz> and will only become accessable in the future release of Total War: Warhammer III

09:44 * Ali mehs at 40k doesn't like the army the unicorn does anymore.
09:45 <Finwe> An army of undead unicorns?
09:45 <Koopz> it might've been easier if they were undead actually

09:46 <ConfusionRift> Huh, a not-Animal Crossing.
09:48 <Koopz> the second picture was taken in the following turn, Elbog's army which was camping right in the middle of the bunch was quickly eradicated, 3 armies were making their way to the south east and the rest sieged the city where my other army was sitting in
09:50 <Koopz> i then proceeded to escape with the army directly into the everwatching's forces because alone they were easy targets
09:52 <Koopz> i had numerous forces on the way coming from the south west and various ones in the direct west making their way to the invasion but most of didn't even arrive before the enemies' last commander drew his last breath
09:53 * Finwe is currently trying to gain the alliance of Orzammar against the Blight.
09:54 <Koopz> i actually had no real connection to pre-40k warhammer until i was recently getting forced by my buddy to try it out.

09:59 <Finwe> The dwarves care little about anyone else apart from themselves.
10:00 <Finwe> At least in Origins.
10:03 <Koopz> would you consider that being wrong?
10:05 <Koopz> like, should dwarfs, no matter which movie, game or other type of media they're featured in always hate the elves?
10:05 <Koopz> just because Tolkien decided that to be a thing back then?
10:05 <Finwe> Not Tolkien, exactly.
10:06 <Finwe> They're borrowed directly from old Germanic folklore.
10:06 <Koopz> the rivalry between both races or just the dwarfs?
10:08 <Finwe> I recall that the dark elves (i.e. dwarves) mostly disapproved of everything that was above the ground.
10:10 <Finwe> Like in Der Ring des Nibelungen.

10:16 <Cepheid> Heh.
10:18 <Koopz> hmm... thinking about wether Dwarves should always be racist or not makes me wonder if - hypothetically - the we should ever reach a state in the world where racism no longer exists, will newly created fiction ever contain it?

10:29 <Cepheid> Well shite. Rain.
10:30 <Cepheid> That's annoying. I was gonna sit outside for a bit and get some fresh air while on my laptop, but...
10:38 <Cepheid> Ah, new video card announcements. Or as I like to call it these days...
10:38 <Cepheid> "Here's some stuff you won't ever be able to acquire thanks to cryptominers."
10:38 <ConfusionRift> And scalpers.
10:39 <Cepheid> It's primarily the cryptominers driving it. The scalpers depend upon the cryptominers.
10:39 <Cepheid> Without the cryptominers, the value of the cards wouldn't be as high, and therefore the scalpers would have less of a reason to do what they do.
10:40 * ConfusionRift shrugs and sighs.
10:42 <Cepheid> I'm stuck in a problem. I don't want to do anything. Code, game, read, sleep, nothing.
10:42 <Cepheid> I need to get out of the house for a bit, but again, rain. Also, pandemic still. Even if I do have my vaccine shot.
10:50 <ConfusionRift> Why do I find this ominous?
10:51 <ConfusionRift> I'll pick... this upgrade. | "So be it." (installs it, and ejects him out) | ...okay.
10:55 <ConfusionRift> That's what a genie would say after granting a wish, and then one finding out the mess they got themselves into.
10:58 <Koopz> does that mean cryptominers are also responsible for PS5 unavailability?
10:59 <ConfusionRift> I'm sorry... but I swear someone took inspiration from the final boss in Thunder Force IV for this boss. Then again, I expect that. :P
11:00 <ConfusionRift> Now those are all scalpers. Even though, I bet it's possible to use a PS5 for cryptomining.

11:05 <Schism> I work for a sneaker company. There's not just one, but two drops today, and the scalpers are going to have the warehouse stripped bare within 15 minutes.
11:05 <Schism> I want to ship them at least one package with a profound stink bomb.

11:32 <Cepheid> And it'd even work more from a lore perspective. Mr. Torgue is bisexual.
11:33 <ConfusionRift> Was he? Hmm, either way, he would support it regardless.
11:33 <Cepheid> Yep. It's mentioned in a Gearbox interview.
11:34 <Cepheid> "I’m also happy to say that in Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep, we confirm that Mister Torgue (an NPC who also had a DLC named after him) and Axton (our playable Commando class) are bisexual."
11:34 <ConfusionRift> Huh. That means they might have also mentioned it somewhere in-game and might have missed it.

12:18 <Cepheid> Right, let's see...
12:19 <Schism> This one will be able to run MHRise in 1080p at a blistering 46 FPS.
12:19 <Cepheid> Reports from various sources suggest it'll support 4k through DLSS.
12:19 <Cepheid> I mean, it *IS* an nVidia product basically.
12:20 * Cepheid installs algae dispensor for food. It's all we can manage at the moment because actual food production is behind research walls.

12:22 <ConfusionRift> HMS That Sinking Feeling.
12:23 <Cepheid> So, do we want a barracks-style sleeping room, or individual rooms for everyone?
12:23 <Schism> ugh. Still want PayPal to just Go Right Away, Please.
12:24 <ConfusionRift> But are you sure you wanna make the purchase you already confirmed you were gonna purchase?
12:25 <ConfusionRift> Can you confirm your confirmations of the confirmation of the confirmed purchase?
12:25 <ConfusionRift> Are you positive of this confirmation?
12:26 <Cepheid> Ye know, the problem with services like paypal and amazon is..
12:26 <Cepheid> The moment they go away, there'll be a mad rush to replace them.
12:26 <Schism> Not quite that part of it. PayPal refuses to change the billing name on an account without numerous pieces of ID, they autofill in the worst ways, etc. -- one of our biggest call drivers is people using PayPal.
12:26 <Cepheid> And there's no guarantee that what does replace them will be any better.
12:26 <Schism> Indeed...
12:26 <Schism> The refusal of PayPal to change deadnames or maiden names, by the way, makes me particularly upset when they then have the temerity to apply the Corporate Rainbow to their logo.
12:28 <Cepheid> There's a reason people don't trust the corporations that change their logo for one month.
12:28 <RazorSharpFang> They middle-eastern, Turkey or Russian parts don't even bother.
12:29 <Cepheid> Four individual rooms for now. Everyone gets their privacy.

12:32 <uni> ooh new word, temerity
12:33 <Cepheid> "Build a water purifier!" "... I think we can wait on that a bit."
12:34 * ConfusionRift scratches his head at this curse.
12:34 <Cepheid> Next room I guess will be... Recreation and food?
12:34 <ConfusionRift> Gain 400% ammo on my current weapon at the cost of half of the ammo.
12:35 <ConfusionRift> Oh, cuts half overall maximum for 400% of my current. Hmmm.
12:36 <ConfusionRift> It's not a particularly good weapon, for sure.
12:36 * Schism passes ConfusionRift a wand with sawblades, explosions, and 4x shots.
12:37 * ConfusionRift notices it has a boomerang effect, and squints.
12:37 <Schism> Heh, I love when those wands appear.
12:38 <Cepheid> Fine game, to silence you I'll build the danged water purifier.
12:38 <Schism> Ah, now you can give pure water to beggars to boost your karma.
12:40 * ConfusionRift doubles his health. So his health goes from 1 to 2. "I'm gonna explode soon."
12:40 <ConfusionRift> The screen has been red for the last 15 minutes.
12:43 <ConfusionRift> There I went boom.
12:44 <Cepheid> There, Schism has a kitchen for use. o3o

20:53 <Shadowed> So my current method of shiny hunting since I can be active with it, is hunting a pokemon till I'm out of moves or health, which ever comes first, then camping so that even getting back PP gets me more exp so I can get my Shiny Pokemon up to level 100

21:03 <Shadowed> In fairness, they are still rare outside of limited time events. It takes hundredes to thousands of encounters/eggs to get even one shiny. Like best odds in sword and shield is like... 1/455 and that's only for any species that you have KO'd/Caught over 500 times.
21:03 <Shadowed> With the shiny charm.
21:04 <Ali> Shadowed, isn't the best odds in Dynamax Adventures at 1/100 with the shiny charm?
21:04 <Ali> Or 1/300 without?

21:09 <Shadowed> in the same amount of time.
21:09 <Ali> Yet its a 1/100 vs a what again? Though adventures is limited to a certain group of mons
21:09 <Shadowed> 1/455.
21:10 <Ali> That's still not a great chance
21:10 <Shadowed> Although I would argue the best game for shiny hunting is Let's Go, as top rate for shiny hunting is 1/273 and you can see the shiny in the overworld.
21:11 * Finwe hats on Ali.
21:11 <Ali> Yeah I'm upset about that
21:11 <Ali> I don't like that you have to keep running into the mon to find out if its shiny or not
21:11 <Ali> And they have a way in the game to SHOW that the pokemon carries watts
