00:48 * Dappled waits for the small child to go to bed to play more Demon's Souls.

02:16 * Schism takes a moment to rest. She pauses. Then she sits up. "Frag. Med time!"

03:03 * Ali snugs the foxgirl Schism

03:17 * Finwe yawns at Ali.

03:18 * Ali boops Finwe nosie and snugs on.

03:18 <Finwe> It has been close to 25°C throughout the night.

03:18 * Finwe wakes up all sweaty.

03:18 <Ali> Yeah its about 25C here tonight as well

03:20 <Finwe> I hope you can sleep in that temperature.

03:20 <Finwe> I cannot.

03:20 <Finwe> I managed some four hours or so.

03:21 <Ali> Well do you have AC?

03:22 <Finwe> No.

03:23 <Ali> Well I do here, so its not as much of a problem

03:23 <Finwe> It would be completely useless for most of the time.

03:24 <Ali> I understand

03:24 <Finwe> About 80% of the summers the temperature stays below 22°C.

03:25 <Finwe> meaning that it's well below 20 at night

03:27 <Finwe> And it's probably too late to get one now.

03:28 <Finwe> If the summer is uncommonly hot, they always disappear from the stores before midsummer.

03:28 <Finwe> And then the prices are rather high afterwards.

04:42 * Schism flumps. And snuggles the Ali, like she snugs her shork.

04:42 * Ali squeaks but likes snugs.

04:42 * Schism hugs. And makes sure to cover Ali in noise-preventing blankets.

04:42 <Ali> It was oddly quiet tonight

04:43 <Finwe> The traditional July 5th celebration.

04:46 <Finwe> The US Independence Day seems to be way more riotous than ours: https://nypost.com/2021/07/05/at-least-150-killed-in-nationwide-shootings-july-4th-weekend/

04:47 <Ali> And that's just from the guns

04:47 <Ali> Wonder what the count was from the fireworks

04:47 <Schism> Looking at the west coast...

04:48 <Schism> I know it's horrid to ask, but I wonder how many of those wildfires were caused by gender reveal parties.

04:48 <Ali> California is just always on fire in the summer Schism, just have to live with it.

04:49 <Schism> This hasn't always been the case!  I swear!

04:49 <Ali> With their failing power lines just touching any brush starting things

04:49 <Ali> I mean hell

04:49 <Ali> How do you expect 'green cars' in a state that can't even keep the lights on in the summer?

04:49 * Finwe brushs Ali.

04:49 <Ali> Lets just add 50 million electric cars to the grid, that'll turn out JUST SWELL

04:50 * Schism grumblycakes, and brushies Ali as well.

04:50 <Finwe> *brushes

04:50 <Schism> *brushies

04:50 *** Joins: _jimm (horse@Pony-fr7.dqo.55.45.IP)

04:50 <Finwe> True.

04:50 <Finwe> *brushie* *brushie*

04:50 * Schism also then makes some... something.

04:50 * Ali watches LA and San Fran black out for three days straight. "Yup, going swell, nothing to see here."

04:52 <Finwe> Sounds like poor design.

04:53 <Ali> I'm just saying

04:53 <Ali> If your power structure is already failing

04:53 <Ali> Why add more strain to the system?

04:54 <Finwe> I remember a blackout 17 years ago, but that's the only one I've ever experienced living on my own.

04:55 <Finwe> Surprised me, though. I was taking the trash out and we had electric locks.

04:56 <Finwe> The door to my apartment had a backup battery, but the doors to the building itself did not.

04:57 <Finwe> Luckily it was of very uncommon design with a fire escape staircase built outside the building.

12:31 * Lumindia places a bagel on their head

12:31 * Schism slumps. Issa tired fox, and should go back to sleep. Wif shork.

12:31 * Schism also hugs the Lumin.

12:32 * Lumindia snugs on the SchismFoxxo

12:33 <Lumindia> you're soft as hecc

12:33 <Lumindia> <3

12:33 <Schism> Snrrrrk... https://twitter.com/pepper_bottom/status/1412229038207385600

12:34 * Schism is perhaps soft...! But isn't cute.

12:41 * Cepheid flops. Brain is stuck on an old problem to try and solve. Yaaay.

12:41 <Schism> Oh gods.  https://twitter.com/J_Motoki/status/1412171408944336898 - Content warning, bees.

12:45 <Schism> Snrk.  People going, "Wait, the Mad Dummy / Mad Mew Mew in the Switch version of Undertale is trans?"  And I'm like, "Yeah, she's all like, 'wow, this body feels much more like me'."

12:48 <Cepheid> The problem:  Implement Conway's Game of Life using concurrency in the form of MPI.

12:49 <Schism> MPI... ah, I see.  Ye olde 'do the Game of Life with multiple processors'.

12:50 <Cepheid> Yes.

12:50 <Cepheid> That was the last assignment I had in the last semester, also the one that ****** everything up for me.

12:52 <Schism> Mmm.

12:52 <Schism> Things like that have a way of popping back into your head at the most inopportune moments.

12:53 <Cepheid> I'm pretty sure it's legitimately responsible for my depressive mood as of the last few months.

12:59 * Schism nods...

12:59 <Cepheid> The complexity comes from having to communicate the information between blocks of the grid.

13:00 <Cepheid> Might have a better chance at figuring this out if there had been a textbook for the course that I could read.

13:00 <Schism> Hum.  Is there a reason why there wasn't a textbook, or at least a reference?

13:01 <Cepheid> No idea.  The closest thing to a textbook was one he recommended to me.https://www.amazon.ca/Elements-Parallel-Computing-Eric-Aubanel/dp/1498727891

13:04 <Schism> Hmmm.

13:05 <Cepheid> As you can see, it's somewhat expensive, and I have very little money.

13:07 <Schism> Yeah.  $100 for a 200-page textbook is... well, not uncommon, but still.

13:07 <Cepheid> The basic concept of Conway's Game of Life is straightforward to implement.  I could do it in less than a day.  Maybe a week if a GUI is involved.

13:07 <Cepheid> When you split up the board across multiple CPUs, though, things get complicated.

13:08 <Cepheid> Because each CPU then needs to know some of the state of the adjacent board pieces.

13:09 <Cepheid> The complexity *THERE* isn't so much sending the data.  It's the limitations of the system that's used to send the data.

13:10 <Cepheid> You can't just use the standard send/receive calls.  They block.  And if you try to use them, you'll end up with gridlock almost immediately.

13:17 <Koopz> oh btw

13:18 <Koopz> i cancelled my FFXIV subscription on the weekend

13:18 <Schism> Waitin' until November?

13:18 <Koopz> nope, i'm out

13:18 <Schism> Whyever for?  Just burned out?

13:19 <Koopz> yeah last saturday we got our last 3 kills of E12S for the achievement

13:20 <Koopz> it took us 26 weeks since the tier release until our first kill

13:20 <Schism> Sheeesh.  Yeah, that'll burn you right out.

13:21 <Koopz> i'm not saying i'm a good player but together with like 2 others of the group we had too many casuals in the static constantly dying in mechanics we've been over progressing on long ago

13:21 <Koopz> the first P1 kill was earlier than our E8S

13:22 <Koopz> 4 days earlier

13:22 <Lumindia> this is part of why I'm not going too hard on savage raiding

13:22 <Koopz> but to add a whole 2 months on top for P2...

13:22 <Lumindia> I'm worried I'll burn myself out on it if I go hard on raiding

13:23 <Schism> This is definitely why I'm a filthy casual.

13:23 <Schism> And not one who joins a static.

13:23 <Schism> About the most I'd do with a static is maybe join in for some minimum iLvl jazz.

13:24 <Koopz> i think i made very clear to my group that i'd rather go through the whole ARR story again than investing any more time in these guys

13:24 <Schism> 2.1 through 2.5 were less aggravating?  Sheesh.

13:25 <Koopz> granted i'd facedesk through those 20 minute cutscenes

13:26 <Koopz> so yeah i got my weapon (which is not BiS, thanks relic), my mount

13:26 <Koopz> and the 10 kill achievement and that's as far as i'll go

13:27 <LibrarianofHope> hi

13:27 <Koopz> continuing to play would mean having to play with the same players and doing more savage content

13:27 <Koopz> they even brought up the idea of starting with UCOB to bridge the time

13:28 <Koopz> until the new expansion

13:28 <Koopz> couldn't think of anything more fun than spending at least 4 months on dying to more stupid shit

13:28 <Koopz> no thank you

13:30 <Koopz> 900 days of subscription on the record. I'll keep it at that. And i have no interest in dealing with that crazy boi "whoo look at me i'm yet another ascian coming out of nowhere" *manical laugh*

13:31 <Lumindia> I'd at least recommend coming back for 6.0, if only for the finale to the Zodiark/Hydaelyn story

13:31 <Koopz> and Mr. Handsome only thinking about how to make lala filet out of me

13:31 <Lumindia> I used to not like Zenos, but he's kinda grown on me after a while

13:34 <Koopz> Zenos can stab Hydaelyn for all i care

13:34 <Koopz> he has plenty of swords to pull that off

13:34 <Schism> There's a phrase called the Eight Deadly Words.  "I don't care what happens to these people."

13:35 <Lumindia> but he ain't using a sword no more

13:37 <Koopz> he doesn't?

13:39 <LibrarianofHope> final fantasy?

13:50 <LibrarianofHope> what are you intentions on entering Hope's Construct?

13:51 <LibrarianofHope> business or vacation?

13:52 <LibrarianofHope> are you aware you cannot pass turtle shells via the border?

13:52 * LibrarianofHope arrest koopz for smuggling

13:54 <Schism> For those looking for a reminder of their age, BitTorrent is now 20 years old.

13:54 <LibrarianofHope> i know my age , its 31

13:55 <Cepheid> It's not worth it, Schism.

13:55 <Schism> That's the impression I'm getting.

13:55 <Cepheid> The OLED screen has worse colour reproduction and burnin problems.

13:55 <Cepheid> I know this from experience.  OLED is terrible.

13:56 <Cepheid> Sure, bright as all hell, but the burnin problem alone would be a deal-breaker.

14:31 <Schism> "The American Civil War was a conflict that took place in late Tokugawa-era North America."

14:32 <LibrarianofHope> thats not that wrong

14:32 <LibrarianofHope> just weirdly writen

14:32 <Schism> It's perfectly correct.  However, it still causes my head to tilt.

14:32 <LibrarianofHope> the shogunate was in power in that time yeah

14:33 <LibrarianofHope> the meije era began in the general time of world war

14:33 <LibrarianofHope> 1

14:34 <Lumindia> I mean...

14:40 <Schism> Oh, cool.  Mary Simon is the new Governor General.

14:54 <Schism> Meanwhile, I'd like to yeet Gina Martow (and Doug Ford, of course, but that goes without saying) right out of our province, and don't especially care in which direction the trebuchet is set up...

15:02 <Schism> Oh god.  X3  https://twitter.com/OoCPokemon/status/1412105510824943616

15:05 * Cepheid sighs. Can't figure this oooouuuutt.

15:09 * Schism randomly suggests to Cepheid that they get a Blahaj, because... "It's weird, but I just realized that it's provided me some of the best sleep I've had in decades."

15:09 <Cepheid> Heh.

15:10 <Cepheid> I could use something to cuddle with, yes.  Normally I use my blanket, but that's currently off to the side for the time being, until the new matress arrives.  I want to keep everything roughly clean for that period of time.

15:10 * LibrarianofHope plops

15:11 * Schism nods, "I'll often use a pillow, but the shork is honestly just... well, it works out better."

15:11 <Cepheid> It's roundish, so it fits better in one's arms, yes.

15:12 <Schism> Doesn't get lumpy either.

15:12 <Cepheid> A pillow, especially mine, doesn't work as well because they're flat as hell.

15:12 * Cepheid stops trying to solve this problem for now. Is getting sinus headache.

15:12 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/ChrisHallbeck/status/1410387494001053698/photo/1

15:13 <Schism> Yeah, don't steal food from the office fridge if you have a peanut butter allergy.  Or, you know, at all.

15:16 <Schism> There is also a special place reserved in the darkest pits of Hades for anyone who brings fish to the office and reheats it in the microwave.

15:18 <Cepheid> Heh.

15:19 <Schism> I mean, come on.  I'll eat my fish and chips cold, like any sensible person.

15:22 <Cepheid> ...

15:23 <Cepheid> Job Bank, what are you doing?

15:23 <Cepheid> I put in Ottawa, ON as the location, and it's showing me jobs in Alberta.

15:23 <Schism> jobbank.gc.ca?  Yeah, it's kind of not the most granular search engine in the world.

15:24 <Schism> Though maybe if the job is a remote one, that could work.

15:24 <Cepheid> It's unlikely I'll get a job doing programming, I think.  Even then, I'm not sure I *WANT* a job programming now.  I'd prefer something like order picking at a warehouse, or just a general warehouse job.

15:28 <Schism> Picking things up, putting them down.  And not a customer-facing position, either.  Well, there are worse things out there, so long as you're not ensnared into working for Amazon or something of the sort.

15:28 <Cepheid> The only job I can find right now that's warehouse work and in my area is for UPS, amazingly.

15:29 <Cepheid> Lee Valley Tools is hiring, and I applied there, but I haven't heard back.

15:29 <LibrarianofHope> dont work for dark lord beezos owo

15:29 <Cepheid> I think a large part of the problem is that I'm overqualified for such jobs.

15:31 <Cepheid> Of course, they could just be backlogged on contacting people and such.  The positions have been open for a month now.

15:31 <Cepheid> With regards to NAVCAN, I expect I won't hear anything until the 9th at the earliest, when the job posting closes.

15:31 <Cepheid> Speaking of, I should be studying for their test.

15:32 <LibrarianofHope> i feel awfull

15:32 <LibrarianofHope> im exhausted

15:32 <LibrarianofHope> a damn month of this i need a break

15:34 <Cepheid> The hardest part about practicing stuff and studying is coming up with stuff to actually practice WITH.

15:34 <Cepheid> SQL?  Databases?  Need a database to work with in the first place.

15:34 <Cepheid> Or something to make a database OUT of.

15:38 <Cepheid> I like how the Switch advertises support of up to 2tb MicroSD cards.  Do such SD cards even exist yet?  Hmmm... Quick perusal on Amazon says no.  Up to 1tb for now.

15:40 <Cepheid> I have 400GB in mine currently.

15:43 <LibrarianofHope> i began disgaea 6, speaking of switch

15:44 <LibrarianofHope> same as usual

15:44 <LibrarianofHope> its full 3d now

15:44 <LibrarianofHope> you can also autobattle, pretty useful on the item world

15:49 <Cepheid> Well that's why I'm getting headaches.

15:49 <Cepheid> I forgot to put aleve in my pillcase.

15:50 <Schism> Ah.  That'll do it then!

15:50 <Schism> But nothing else, besides the tiredness?

15:50 <Cepheid> Actually no grogginess today.

15:51 <Cepheid> Just the headache.

15:51 *** Quits: LibrarianofHope (Librarianof@Pony-5ql.dj1.207.187.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

15:51 <Cepheid> It's a standard sinus headache, though, so not unexpected if I forgot to take aleve or painkillers ahead of time.

15:51 <Schism> Ah, so you're one of those, like me, who just bounces back from vaccinations.  I wonder if this will break the streak for me.

15:51 <Cepheid> My dad meanwhile, who got his shot on the same day, is getting hit hard, yes.

15:52 <Cepheid> He got the Moderna, though, while I got Pfizer.   So we're wondering if that's the key difference.

15:54 <Schism> Well, my first one was Moderna, so my second's probably going to be Pfizer.  I'll of course report back to you in *checks timeframe* 3 months.

15:54 <Cepheid> You should be able to reschedule it earlier by now.

15:54 <Schism> I'll give 'em a call ... tomorrow.  

15:54 <Cepheid> Originally I was scheduled for September, but Ontario opened up the system for rescheduling earlier.

15:56 <LibrarianofHope> particularly in the district of mexico city im in,

16:10 <Schism> Hmm.  My preferred Shoppers has the Moderna jab.  

16:10 <Schism> Guess that makes things somewhat more straightforward than a mass vaccination clinic.

16:12 <Schism> Heh, can't book an appointment yet.

16:14 <Cepheid> Heh.

16:19 <Cepheid> The tylenol does not appear to be helping with the headache, and it has reached "i'm in a cold sweat" levels.

16:32 * Ali baps LibrarianofHope with a White Dwarf. "Nids soon, or just a way to mock a already dead faction?"

16:32 <LibrarianofHope> nids soon

16:32 * LibrarianofHope throws magic fat frog at ali

16:32 <LibrarianofHope> i has lizardmen

16:32 <Ali> And by soon, I mean 5 factions from now cause they're still so far behind.

16:32 <LibrarianofHope> for days

16:33 <Ali> Orks, Grey Knights, Thousand Sons, Sisters of Battle.  I don't even know how they can keep this structure up

16:33 <Ali> And the older a codex is, the worse it is doing in the game

16:34 <Ali> Nids have such laughably useless rules and models its just...sad.

16:37 <LibrarianofHope> they are gettinf stuff on saturday

16:37 <Ali> Press X to Doubt

16:37 <Ali> X

16:37 <LibrarianofHope> im like 85 percent sure

16:37 * LibrarianofHope pokes ali to cute

16:37 <Ali> They're probably just using NIds so they can glorify their new anti nid rules and what not

16:40 * LibrarianofHope pat pats the cute ali bug goodness

16:40 * Ali hisses, is not cute!

16:50 <LibrarianofHope> i took the money of the sale, as i have the right too

16:50 <LibrarianofHope> if the client sends it back im (bleeped)

17:21 <Schism> Ah crumbs.  I just realized that in a few days the monthly funtimes will begin.  Yaaaay...

17:22 <Schism> Perhaps best to wait until _after_ those to schedule my second vaccine.

17:22 * Ali flops over Schism

17:23 * Schism hugs the Ali, and provides another pair of headphones for use against those who are going to continue being loud.

19:23 <Cepheid> Headache's going away, but I'm still seeing other effects from the headache.  Namely, I'm getting ghost/double vision in the left eye.

19:23 <LibrarianofHope> who you gonna call?

19:23 * LibrarianofHope baps himself

19:26 <Cepheid> My vision will return to normal as the pressure alleviates itself over time.  Fortunately it's also just the left eye.

19:30 <Cepheid> Huh, so you can get the Master Sword with whatever number of hearts you want in BotW through a glitch.  Fun.

19:32 <Ali> Too bad its still a useless paper sword after 20 hits

19:32 <Ali> If they put durability in Botw2, I am not touching it

19:39 <Cepheid> Does the sword not regenerate in that situation?

19:41 <Cepheid> In any case..

19:42 <Cepheid> Truly insane players could just get the sword, then do the trials immediately afterwards.  I'm sure there are players who can do the trials with 3 hearts.

19:42 <Ali> It regenerates

19:42 <Ali> But the fact that it needs to do such a thing is dumb

19:42 <Cepheid> Agreed.

19:42 <Cepheid> Though again, the trial fixes that.  But good luck doing it with 3 hearts.

19:43 <Ali> Fixes what?  the need for it to regenerate?

19:43 <Cepheid> Yeah.

19:43 *** Quits: ryaxnb21 (ryaxnb@Pony-i7u332.ca.comcast.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

19:43 <Ali> Never heard of a quest like that.  Must be DLC

19:43 <Cepheid> It's the DLC, yeah.

19:43 <Cepheid> It permanently charges the sword, all for the low low cost of an insanely difficult set of challenges.

19:44 <Cepheid> Basically, you're thrown into a sequential set of challenges, starting with none of your armor, weapons or items.

19:45 <Cepheid> You have to pass the challenges with what you find DURING the challenges.  There are points where it saves your progress, so you can continue off from checkpoints, but it doesn't make it any easier.

19:46 <Cepheid> As for BotW 2 having the durability...  I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't, or did.  I'd expect the system to be heavily reworked, though.

19:48 <Ali> The durability thing has been my complaint from the last two games

19:48 <Ali> I mean first it was shields in Skyward Sword

19:49 <Ali> Then everything broke in BoTW
