00:16 * Finwe boops Ali and Schism with a free copy of Surviving Mars: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/surviving-mars-deluxe-edition-free-game

00:16 <Finwe> Sure, everyone's already got that, but still.

00:16 <Schism> Well, this is the deluxe edition at least!

00:16 * Schism takes out her laundry.

00:17 <Finwe> Deluxe edition, whatever that means.

00:19 <Schism> Wurf, let's make that 'in another 5 minutes'.

00:44 * Finwe gets as far as Mustrum Ridcully being appointed the Arch Chancellor.

00:45 <Finwe> This, of course, is mentioned in the beginning of Moving Pictures.

00:45 <Schism> And from that point on he maintains his appointment by the simple expedient of being incredibly hard to kill.

00:47 <Finwe> “The senior wizard in a world of magic had the same prospects of long-term employment as a pogo stick tester in a minefield.”

00:47 <Finwe> That is indeed an occupation I might not fancy trying.

00:47 <Schism> I'm sure you could try it once.

00:48 <Finwe> A pogo stick tester, that is. I could try being a senior wizard.

00:48 <Schism> "Voila." "Is that some kind of instrument?" "No, Mr. Vimes, it means what is that on the table?" "It appears to be an axe." "Amazing, and you've barely looked at it."

00:50 <Schism> Finwe: "You know, we used to kill wizards like him." "Yes, but we used to kill wizards like us, too."

00:50 <Finwe> “However, from the Bursar’s point of view this didn’t really have to matter. The name might change occasionally, but what did matter was that there always was an Archchancellor and the Archchancellor’s most important job, as the Bursar saw it, was to sign things, preferably, from the Bursar’s point of view, without reading them first.”

00:50 <Cepheid> Whelp.  The nausea from my drugs peaked tonight.  Eurgh.

00:51 <Schism> Ow.  At least you're still not on the other stuff...

00:52 <Cepheid> I think I'm going to give myself a month after I finish this round of antibiotics before I do any further prescription changes.

00:52 <Cepheid> Give my body time to friggen recover.

00:52 * Schism nods. >_O

00:55 <Schism> Ugh, my brain is trying to fixate on a terrible joke.  "Oh, everyone knows that novel coronavirus was first contacted from a dirty telephone."

01:06 * Angie pouncies Schism.

01:07 * Ali boops Finwe with the fact that she already owns all of Surviving Mars

01:13 * Ali also steals Angie and brushies smol pega

01:13 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Say Something Nice About Port Wine [ https://tinyurl.com/yfn4x4sz ]

01:13 * Angie pounces Ali.

01:15 * Ali eeeps, she doesn't need to be pounced cause she was going to brushie Angie anyway

01:15 * Angie bounces around, then blows bubbles at Ali.

01:21 <Bubbles> a

01:33 *** Ali sets mode: -b *!*@Pony-gja4ce.mn.comcast.net

01:37 *** Joins: Heartbreak (Heartbreak@Pony-gja4ce.mn.comcast.net)

01:37 <Heartbreak> Yay. And now. Monkeys.

01:40 * Schism blinks! And points Angie at HB for to pounce.

01:40 * Angie hides under Ali.

01:40 * Angie doesn't know this pony and it looks like they were in trouble.

01:41 <Schism> No, that was just a disconnection issue.

01:41 <Ali> Angie, it was a DC issue

01:41 * Angie remains hidden.

01:41 * Ali pulls Angie out and boops softly

01:41 * Schism shrugs, and boops Ali and Angie with giant shork.

01:41 * Ali squeaks

01:42 <Schism> Shork: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/668435589791744010/852955620734271558/unknown.png

01:43 <Heartbreak> Gah!

01:44 <Heartbreak> Oh, good. No sudden jumps from a strange p-pony.

01:44 * Schism throws shork at HB.

01:45 <Heartbreak> Sudden hugs are ill advised on me. You might accidentally touch my mark. Thus, you are -wise- for keeping your distance Angie.

01:46 <Heartbreak> Schism: Are you feeling cute, might post ponies later meme?

01:46 <Schism> Am not cute.

01:46 <Heartbreak> Just like me.

01:46 <Heartbreak> We're -not- cute.

01:46 <Schism> No, you're cute.  It's just me and Ali who aren't.

01:46 <Heartbreak> I am not!

01:47 <Heartbreak> Angie, take all the 'cute' that Schism is throwing my way.

01:47 * Schism flees to the store to pick up some stuffs. Like potato wedges and roast chicken.

01:47 * Angie hides under Ali because Ali will keep smol pegasus safe.

01:48 * Ali pat pats Angie

05:31 <Finwe> I shouldn't be awake at this time, given the time when I fell asleep.

05:32 * Finwe noms on Ali.

05:32 * Ali curls up on Finwe

05:32 <Finwe> Are midsummer fireworks a thing there?

05:33 <Finwe> We usually only do fireworks around New Year.

05:33 <Finwe> It's the only time when it's generally allowed. Any other time you have to file an application and whatnot.

05:36 <Ali> Finwe, The Fourth of July is coming

05:38 <Finwe> Yes, but it's still over three weeks from now.

05:38 <Finwe> It would be about the same to start celebrating New Year at the end of November.

05:39 <Ali> Its America

05:39 <Ali> And firework vendors are popping up all over the place

05:39 <Finwe> For some reason we don't do anything like that on our Independence Day.

05:41 <Finwe> We carry flags and torches: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/Finnish_Independence_day_2015_01.JPG

05:42 <Finwe> And then people light blue and white candles on their window sills.

05:42 <Finwe> A lot less noisy than fireworks.

05:54 <Finwe> “That the Alchemists had a Guild at all was remarkable. Wizards were just as uncooperative, but they also were by nature hierarchical and competitive. They needed organization. What was the good of being a wizard of the Seventh Level if you didn’t have six other levels to look down on and the Eighth Level to aspire to? You needed other wizards to hate and despise.”

06:45 <Finwe> o3o

06:45 <Finwe> If the alchemists ever got married, it was to have someone to hold their crucibles.

09:45 * Dappled waves to ConfusionRift.

09:45 * ConfusionRift wavies back.

09:47 <Dappled> So what's happening around here tonight?

09:48 <Finwe> Dappled: Hoofball!

09:48 * ConfusionRift points at the blankness. "Not much it seems."

09:48 <Finwe> The first match today starts in three hours.

09:49 <Finwe> And there will be two more later on.

09:49 * Dappled chews on a ball?

09:50 <Dappled> Bunch of my coworkers are going to baseball game today. I shall stay home and play videogames/do chores.

09:52 * ConfusionRift is home as well... not doing much.

09:52 <ConfusionRift> I came back from work with so much pain that I crashed in bed for a while.

09:54 * Dappled hugs ConfusionRift.

09:54 <Finwe> Was uns nicht tötet, macht uns stärker.

09:57 * Dappled plays BotW while waitng on Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction to unzip.

09:58 <Finwe> Isn't waiting on customers something that waiters and waitresses do in restaurants?

09:58 <Finwe> And you wait for something to happen.

09:59 <Dappled> Usually not unzipping. That happens after the meal.

10:00 <Dappled> BotW is a better post apocaplypse than Fallout.

10:02 <ConfusionRift> Nuh-uh. Splatoon is. :P

10:02 * Dappled hasn't played splatoon

10:03 * ConfusionRift is just joking. "That's just kid's CoD."

10:06 <ConfusionRift> At least there's plenty in BoTW, whereas Fallout is either nothing or absolute chaos in the distance.

10:16 <Dappled> Well I would like to play Tools of Destruction but it keeps telling me game data has been corrupted

10:17 * ConfusionRift goes for Terraria instead.

10:17 <ConfusionRift> ...emulator?

10:17 <Dappled> Yeah.

10:17 <ConfusionRift> Never really tried the PS3 one, so dunno.

10:19 <ConfusionRift> You can always savestate if it continues.

10:19 * Dappled can't get to game play.

10:19 <ConfusionRift> Ooooh.

10:19 <Dappled> Could save state, if I could get to play. Digging through forums

10:56 <ConfusionRift> Yep. Normally a preset seed, a very carefully planned path, and a lot of meticulous item and resource management.

10:59 <Cepheid> Custom-built or pre-built?

10:59 <RazorSharpFang> It's custom parts, built by the vendor.

10:59 <Cepheid> What's the CPU, at the least?

10:59 <RazorSharpFang> AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core

11:00 * Cepheid coughs. Proceeds to set game.speed back to 1.0 then.

11:01 <RazorSharpFang> I have been longing for this for a while now.

11:02 <Cepheid> Heh.

11:02 <Cepheid> I'm interested to hear how well the universe explorer window fares on your end, because even on my end it cripples performance due to the small view.

11:16 <RazorSharpFang> I return.

11:17 <Finwe> Me too.

11:18 <Cepheid> Welcome back.

11:18 <Cepheid> You'll likely have two or three rounds of updates to install.

11:18 <Cepheid> Then all the drivers.

11:19 <RazorSharpFang> And then there's all the sites that I've forgotten the password for and am relying on the saved cookies.

11:20 <Cepheid> Interestingly, Firefox and it's synchronization stuff helps with that.

11:20 <Cepheid> Sort of.

11:21 <RazorSharpFang> All the custom fonts to install

11:28 <RazorSharpFang> Visual studio itself will take a while to set up correctly.

11:30 <Cepheid> Install Factorio in the meantime and let's see how much better your system loads the map than mine does.

11:31 <RazorSharpFang> There's still the network side of things.

11:32 <RazorSharpFang> I think the RJ45 cable I'm using is Cat5 not Cat5e, my adaptor is telling me the connection is 100Mbps not 1000Mbps

11:34 <Cepheid> Possible.

11:35 <RazorSharpFang> Cepheid, dm me the server connection details again, please.

11:35 <Cepheid> Ah, right.

11:35 <Cepheid> Give me a moment.

11:38 <RazorSharpFang> Looking good, syncing mods.

11:40 <Cepheid> I fully expect it to download the save at the same old speed, but the loading and catching up to be much faster.

11:41 <Cepheid> Much faster than my own system.

11:41 <Cepheid> I'm using a 2700X octa-core.

11:41 <RazorSharpFang> I'll see if I can grab a long enough Cat5e RJ45 cable sometime.

11:41 <RazorSharpFang> Is that also an AMD CPU ?

11:41 <Finwe> Sounds like a Ryzen.

11:41 <Finwe> So yes.

11:46 <Cepheid> Yes.

11:46 <Cepheid> AMD Ryzen 2700X.

11:49 <RazorSharpFang> Since I bought an AMD CPU AMD stock should be going up.

11:51 <RazorSharpFang> I am wondering how the .Net MAUI is going to look like.

11:51 * Lumindia is now on their crystal alt with a boosted Warrior

11:53 <Cepheid> I only have a short amount of time to game this morning.  My parents are insistent on taking me clothes shopping.

11:54 <RazorSharpFang> Turns out the bluetooth adaptor wasn't working because it was not able to draw enough power on the USB sockets on the case. The USB sockets on the motherboard worked better.

11:55 <Lumindia> https://i.imgur.com/ltwdhyD.png

12:02 <RazorSharpFang> Getting about 1MBps from the server.

12:03 <RazorSharpFang> I am downloading visual studio 2019 while this is happening too.

12:07 <Cepheid> Feels like the catch-up shouldn't be taking that long, but then it took forever for the map to download.

12:07 <Cepheid> So the limiting factor then is the download.

12:08 <RazorSharpFang> Would be nice to be able to chat in Factorio while catching up.

16:32 <Cepheid> Pretty much.

16:32 <Cepheid> And yes, I did get something to drink.

16:33 <Cepheid> Strangely, I'm not as groggy now as I was 30 minutes ago.  It's just weird bodily sensations and visual things now.

16:34 <Schism> It can be tiring to be out in public, especially after so long cooped up.

16:35 <Cepheid> I think this is the antibiotics, but yeah, I've also not been moving around so much, so my body is probably just stiff from moving around.  It was nice to get out and around though.

16:35 <Cepheid> Even got some new clothes out of it.  Shorts and shirts, mostly.

16:37 <Schism> No skirts?  Pity.

16:48 <Cepheid> Goose Goose Duck.  Basically, apparently, it's very much like Among Us, but with some differences and different rulesets to play with, but one of them..

16:48 <Cepheid> Involves finding and killing a Canadian Goose.

16:49 <Schism> Hmmm.  o3o

16:50 <Cepheid> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA57y9JByqo

16:50 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

16:50 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Bevor Sie zu YouTube weitergehen

16:51 <Schism> Seems reasonable.

16:51 <Cepheid> Apparently, being Canadian causes you to autoreport any of your own kills.

16:51 <Cepheid> Er, your killer will auto-report, rather.

16:51 <Schism> I think it's the opposite.  If the Canadian goose gets kill-- yea.

16:54 <Cepheid> It's interesting because in this case, the voice chat is incorperated into the game, using distance to figure out if someone can be heard or not.

16:56 * Schism wants to find Strype and give her a hug, because she's been very helpful when it comes to some things.

16:56 <Schism> Also, that one is definitely interesting.  Of course, can be turned off, but still.

16:57 <Cepheid> My only concern with it is HIGH PITCHED NOISES and SCREAMING and loud voices and such.

16:58 <Schism> Yeah, I mean, I'd be more likely to do the Discord thing.

16:58 <Cepheid> Mmm, there needs to be a volume normalization feature for voice chat before it can be integrated into a game proper.

16:59 *** ChanServ sets mode: +qo Ali Ali

16:59 * Schism mutters something about voice changing. She also puts a plush shark on Ali.

17:00 * Ali flops over Schism and grumps, stupid nightmares..

17:00 <Schism> Spent all night snuggled up to said shark, slept well.  No nightmares... woke up to a leg cramp, though.

17:00 * Schism thinks Ali should get a giant plush Sylveon, because best Eeveelution.

17:00 * Ali can't afford to pay those type of prices.

17:01 <Schism> Mm.  Plush anything, really?

17:01 <Schism> Ikea's are affordable... strangely.

17:02 * Ali will stick to her Twilights she's been snuggling for years now..

17:02 <Schism> Also a fine choice.

17:03 * Schism is not a snuggly foodling, though. All elbows 'n' stuff.

17:03 <Cepheid> Hum, what to do, what to do..?

17:03 <Cepheid> I can't lay down just yet, since it's a liiiittle early for that.

17:06 <Schism> Get something cool to eat?  I think I'm going to be making myself a chicken sandwich.

17:06 * Ali goes to strain herself in Factorio

17:07 <Ali> So...many...damn...modules

17:08 <Cepheid> I meant what to play.

17:09 <Schism> I'd ask if you want to try "Golf with your Friends", but that's the sort of game that lends itself to screaming.

17:09 <Cepheid> I'm more in the mood for violence.

17:14 * Schism decides she'll load up Valheim for a few. Mine some of that tin and copper that she found by the beach.

17:15 <Cepheid> The more I think about gaming, the less I want to do it right now.  Blasted antibiotics.

17:16 <Schism> I'm not sure that's just you, that's ... a lot of things.

17:18 <Schism> The hell...?

17:18 <Cepheid> Mmm.  It's more a lack of energy.

17:18 <Schism> sigh.  When mods break on you.

17:18 <Cepheid> Heh.

17:18 <Schism> I know Valheim's early-access, but still.

17:19 * Schism didn't _lose_ anything. Well, a few stone and wood, but those are easy.

17:32 <Cepheid> What kind of mods were you using that broke?

17:33 <Schism> Just ValheimPlus.

17:45 <Cepheid> Few more days of staying up like this and I'll be back to a normal sleep schedule.

18:06 <Cepheid> Wednesday is going to be a fun day for the cats.

18:20 <Schism> Leveling my Leather Armor is going to be a Thing, but it'll almost certainly be positive.  I will, however, have to bring lots of food and torches for when I get into that delve.

18:20 * Schism needs to kill about 10 skellingtons for that.

18:21 <Schism> Well.  40 skellingtons, really.

18:22 <Cepheid> Heh.

18:22 <Cepheid> As for wednesday, that's when my sister returns home.  With the DOG.

18:24 * Cepheid noms ice pop. Needs cold, sugar-be-damned.

18:33 * Schism builds a smokehouse.

18:33 <Schism> ... ow.

18:33 <Schism> 12 actual meat every so often -- that'll help.

18:40 * Cepheid consumes watered ice.

18:42 <Cepheid> You'd think Valheim would be my sort of game, given Norse Mythology and all.

19:06 <Schism> ugh.  My camp is a hot mess.

19:06 <Schism> Also, hum.

19:14 <Schism> Though it will take some time to process everything.

19:15 <Schism> Hmm.  Do I go with the Bronze Axe?  Well, yes.

19:18 <Schism> Could alternately go with an armour upgrade.

19:19 * Dappled grumbles. Still no luck getting Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction to work.

19:20 <Schism> Bronze axe will basically make me able to get better wood...

19:21 <Schism> And I'll soon be able to harvest crops.

19:21 <Schism> This song reflects the unrelenting brutality of harvesting carrots.

19:32 <Cepheid> Let's see... A deer, what appears to be a tall giant or treant.  A fat mountain.  A dragon.  And a lich or skeleton.

19:33 <Schism> Deer is fun.

19:33 * Schism bolsters her armour slightly.

19:34 <Schism> Could boost my Bronze Axe to rank 3 shortly.

19:34 <Schism> But... need more metal first.

19:37 <Cepheid> Whelp, I died.

19:37 <Schism> You got hit by a tree, didn't you.

19:37 <Cepheid> While being attacked by a goblin or something, yes.

19:38 <Schism> Oh, yeah.  Well, that can be a distraction.  You can use trees to murder them rapidly, though!

19:39 <Cepheid> Hum, got some flat land here.  Would make a good base location.

19:40 <Schism> Not a bad idea.  The meadow areas do have those.  You want to build a hoe before you go entirely too far, though.

19:42 <Schism> A lean-to with a roof, sure, but a hoe will give you the ability to lower, raise, and level land.

19:43 <Schism> That's all I'll say about that for now, though.

19:45 <Cepheid> Fortunately I got a good start for a base.  Apparently this meadow contained a small tent.  o3o

19:45 <Schism> That's a fair enough lean-to.  o3o  Just needs a bit of fixing up!

19:46 <Schism> Hmm.

19:46 <Schism> I has options.  I can now create one portal.  I'll need more Surtling Cores before I can do up another, though.

19:47 <Schism> And that means flopping into the Black Forest to hunt down another dungeon.

19:47 <Schism> Oh, Cephy.  Look at the sky.  o3o

19:51 <Cepheid> Hey Yggdrasil.

19:55 <Cepheid> Man I do not like this building UI.

20:08 <Schism> Ow.  Troll.

20:16 <Cepheid> Hunt his kin.  So the offering is something from deer.

20:16 <Cepheid> Which run away at first sight of me, so I'd need a ranged weapon.

20:19 <Schism> Insufficient cores...

20:22 <Schism> Huh.  I can make troll armour.  o3o

20:24 * Cepheid goes to bed on fire.

20:24 <Schism> Armor++, and Sneak++ once I get the set.

20:28 <Cepheid> I have no idea where to go from here.  I know I can make a bow and arrow with hide scraps, but I can't find any.  The one I got was from a random boar that I found, but no other boars are around.

20:31 <Schism> Oh come on.  https://imgur.com/a/MBNm1cS

20:31 <Schism> Cepheid: I suggest having sound on.  Boars make a distinctive noise.

20:34 <Cepheid> I do have sound on

20:35 <Cepheid> Just it's being overwhelmed by my turbine fan.

20:39 <Schism> Bronze axe rank 3, yay.

20:39 <Cepheid> Leave me alone skeleton!

20:40 <Cepheid> There.

20:41 <Cepheid> I have the scraps I need.

20:45 <Schism> Yeah...

20:45 <Schism> ... wait, I can make a better bow now.  FINALLY

20:52 * Schism takes a break. @_@

20:55 <Schism> I'll be happier once I get some more surtling cores so I can start on a portal network.

21:00 <Schism> But might not be able to do that effectively until I hit the swamp.

21:00 <Schism> Or find more dungeons with them in.
