00:00 <Ali> Teenage years, the brain is in perpetual derp so they don't know better

00:00 <somininin> So thats why i cant have nice things, cause ppl are stupid..

00:00 <Schism> But yes, skirt.  https://store.mayakern.com/collections/skirts/products/preorder-bee-midi-skirt

00:00 <Schism> And -- AND -- it fits perfectly.

00:01 <Schism> This is maybe the first time I've ever bought clothing online which fits so well.

00:01 <somininin> Must be great...

00:01 * Schism randomly provides Cepheid with another epsom salt foot bath.

00:03 * Schism should also clean out the fridge a---aaaaaand she should buy sour cream.

00:04 <Schism> sigh.  Okay!  Because what's chili con carne without a helping of shredded cheese and sour cream, right?

00:04 <somininin> chili san cream

00:05 <Schism> somininin, think goulash.

00:06 <Schism> I mean, you can have goulash without sour cream...

01:13 * Ali rolls around..

01:13 * Schism offers Ali some of this slice of caramel cheesecake.

01:14 * Ali just ate something sweet, can't do that again.

01:16 * Schism offers Ali some of this chili, then! She only chopped up one jalapeno into it, and even then she made sure to take out all the seeds, so any capsaicin is very tiny.

01:16 * Ali still burns her tongue

01:17 <Schism> Well... you're supposed to put sour cream in there too...

01:30 <Schism> Lumindia: https://twitter.com/PrognosisFFXIV/status/1443509048826073089

01:38 * Ali tried 14, just...couldn't get into it

01:41 * Schism nods, and hugs the Ali.

01:41 <Schism> Not every cute girl is into FFXIV.

01:42 * Schism sets up the statement for LunaNightwind to deny.

01:46 <LunaNightwind> oh no i very much have spent time in FFXIV but know that its not everyones cup of tea

01:47 <Schism> Oh, I meant the inevitable argument that Ali isn't cute.

01:47 * Ali of course isn't cute.

01:47 <LunaNightwind> oh i dont feel like arguing with Ali tonight, she knows i think she is cute but i dont want an argument

02:19 <LunaNightwind> oh i dont feel like arguing with Ali tonight, she knows i think she is cute but i dont want an argument

02:20 * Schism headtilts at the repetition.

02:21 <LunaNightwind> i....dont know how that posted again

02:58 <Schism> Is not spicy, Ali.

02:59 <Schism> Not even a hint of capsaicin.

03:01 * Ali noms on Schism tails

03:01 * Schism tastes of chili with sour cream and sourdough bread.

03:01 <Tiffany> Looks delicious :P

05:33 <Ali> Then it magically disappears overnight

06:36 * Schism doffs her chili con carne, with sour cream and cheddar cheese.

06:36 <Finwe> o3o

06:36 <Schism> Also sourdough bread.

06:36 <Schism> Just a light sourdough, though.

06:38 * Finwe also shoos Ali off his Alchemy potions, with considerable latency.

06:38 <Finwe> Schism: Lightly soured or light-coloured?

06:39 <Schism> Light coloured!  There's plenty of flavour.

06:40 * Ali noms on all the extra u's

06:48 <Finwe> I usually only have sourdough rye bread, which is dark brown.

12:03 <Finwe> An orthogonal basis E of a Hilbert space H is a set such that the inner products between elements of E behave like the Kronecker delta distribution and an element of H can always be represented as a (possibly countably infinite) linear combination of elements of E.

12:04 <Finwe> Even if H has uncountably many dimensions.

13:03 <Cepheid> Morning.

13:04 <Cepheid> Quiet morning today.  They got me doing stupid boring stuff instead of picking.

13:08 <ConfusionRift> Would rather do boring than pain at this point. :P

13:08 <Cepheid> True.

13:08 <ConfusionRift> As for picks, I suppose depends on the area.

13:11 <ConfusionRift> Sports? Sure. Housewares? Depends. Groceries? Geeezzzzz... no. :P

13:13 <Cepheid> I prefer to avoid rhe low-numbered aisles myself.  Claustrophobia kicks in with them.

13:14 <Cepheid> Plus aisle 1 has heavy stuff.  Very heavy.  And sharp.

13:14 <Cepheid> Whelp.   Back to work.

15:36 <Schism> Beats killing your legs.  My bosses do something similar right now, where we'll get a day mostly comprised of offline time, so no customers, just casework.

16:03 * Schism also notices it's noon, so takes her insulin and antiboyotics.

16:03 <Finwe> The sofapony sneaks into the channel in various disguises, none of which are good enough to deceive my vigilant eye.

17:28 <ADragonDreaming> huh... the Bee Simulator game appears to be actually ... put together well.

18:37 * Librarian polishes uni for great justice

18:37 * uni squeaks and shines!

18:38 <uni> it's really hard to find the names of the eight destroyers sortied with the Second Fleet's Main Body on 9th December 1941

18:39 <Librarian> really'

18:39 <Librarian> ?

18:39 * uni nods!

18:39 <Librarian> i would figure history buffs would have all ww2 data at this point

18:39 * Finwe boops a uni with a math book.

18:39 * uni pouts at Finwe

18:40 <Librarian> have you tried the navy sites?

18:40 * uni is reading those now!

18:40 <uni> everyone is just talking about Midway and stuff

18:40 <uni> or the Java Sea

18:41 <Librarian> why do you want that data anyway?

18:41 <uni> ooh yay I found it

18:41 <Librarian> yay

18:42 <uni> oh like I want to buy tiny ships, but the minimum order for free shipping is 15 pounds

18:42 <Librarian> minaiture ships yay

18:42 <uni> so I thought might as well get the full battle order for both sides

18:42 <Librarian> ahh

18:42 <Librarian> neat

18:42 <Librarian> i aprrove!

18:43 * Librarian sticks seal of approval on uni's forehead

18:43 <uni> hmm too many destroyers though

18:43 <uni> I think that's the whole Second Fleet

18:44 <uni> not the one dispatched

18:44 * uni squeakies happily at the seal

18:45 <Librarian> im currently finishing my armies on parade work

18:46 <Librarian> couple staues and a plinth thignie

18:47 <uni> ooh which army?

18:48 <Librarian> soulblight gravelords

18:48 <Ali> If he says mahreens..

18:48 <Librarian> skeletons

18:48 * Ali boops Librarian back to Sigmar. Meh as Nids are never going to be good again

18:48 <Librarian> i do have salamders on the project list

18:48 <Librarian> Vulkan Lives!

18:48 * Librarian bonks ali with squeaky hammer

18:49 * Ali baps, no mahreens

18:49 <uni> ooh you play AoS?

18:49 <Librarian> not really

18:49 <uni> also just down the road from my uni is a Warhammer store

18:50 <Librarian> i paint

18:50 <uni> if only I had money, and interest

18:50 <Librarian> playing is a hassle

18:50 <Librarian> i love painting

18:50 * Ali started Tyranids back in 3rd, and in 9th they're absolute garbage

18:51 <uni> painting is really fun~

18:51 <Librarian> after i finish my armies on parade stuff im painting a skaven team

18:51 * uni needs to go get paint

18:51 <uni> well and stuff to paint

18:51 <uni> ooh are you going to do scenery too?

18:51 <Librarian> for the skaven?

18:51 <Librarian> probably not

18:51 <Ali> What I'm sad about is how the balance in 40k has gone to pot

18:52 <Librarian> thtas just cause i want to make a hololive based team with my skaven for kicks

18:52 <Ali> Back in 3rd, a squad of 32 hormagaunts got 96 attacks on the charge and a marine only had 1 base attack and one wound

18:52 <Librarian> then i do lizardmen/seraphon

18:52 <Ali> Now Horms get 60, while marines have 3 attacks and 2 wounds

18:52 <Librarian> alis is the cutest hivemind

18:53 <Ali> I mean, do you see balance in that Librarian?

18:53 <Ali> Gaunts used to cost 10 points a model, and now they're 5, but are I'd say 90% less effective

18:53 <uni> I think they have forgotten WH40K is a game

18:53 <uni> and kinda went all in on the product thing

18:53 <Ali> Oh the primaris bois are even worse

18:54 <Ali> They get 2 base attacks along with their 2 wound profile

18:54 <Ali> 1 more from their stupid melee weapon

18:54 <Ali> And another for charging, being charged, or heroic intervention

18:54 <Ali> So a squad of 10 marines get 40 attacks...

18:54 <Librarian> orks get buckets

18:55 <Ali> Which is pretty much assured to wipe out an entire gaunt squad in one turn

18:55 <Librarian> dice buckets

18:55 <Ali> Nids on the other hand now have a 50% penalty to damage, cause of the extra wound problem

18:56 <Ali> That and the massive amount of Tyranid weapons that only do 1 damage each, they all got 50% worse in 9th

18:56 <Ali> Hell, Terminators are even worse

18:56 <Ali> Going from a single wound, now to 3

18:57 <Schism> Lore-wise, I'd say that Terminators should have _two_, but honestly.

18:57 <Librarian> the lore is wild owo

18:57 <Ali> Well I understand that a single Horm shouldn't be able to take down a marine, considering the cost effectiveness of a 5 point model killing a nearly 50

18:58 <Ali> But 30 horms at 150 points just bring nothing to the table but bodies

18:58 <Ali> But its odd saying that, as I loved Horms in 3rd, and they were 320 points

18:59 <Ali> But its funny, the Hormagaunt profile hasn't changed from 3rd at all

19:00 <Ali> Other than the Scy tal nerf points changes

19:00 <Librarian> next box is black templar

19:00 <Librarian> so crusade

19:01 * Librarian crusades a bunch

19:01 <Ali> I want the carnifex back to its old profile of S9

19:01 <Ali> This S6 Fex is a load of crap, its basically a garbo dreadnaught

19:02 <Ali> That and half our rules don't work anymore due to the no modifying past +1/-1

19:02 <Ali> Cause Old One Eye gave a +1 effect to Fex, along with charging got another +1

19:02 <Ali> So they could hit on 2+, but now that's been nerfed back to 3+

19:04 <Ali> And I don't want Nids to be overpowered, I just want some sort of balance and feel like the army is like what its supposed to be.

19:04 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Everything Wrong With Spice Up Your Life [ https://tinyurl.com/yeo35x9r ]

19:04 <Ali> But finding that balance is the problem, go to far one way and you'll break everything

19:04 <uni> woah I didn't know it was that bad

19:05 <uni> honestly so far the balance for 9th has been up-manning the previously released codex

19:05 <Ali> uni, the big thing of 9th was to 'make things killier'

19:05 <Ali> Yet Nids, opperating on an early 8th edition codex.  Just suffer from the poorly written rules for that time, as it was in early 8th and none of the bugs were fixed with it

19:06 <uni> yeah

19:06 <Ali> And its been well known that 9th codex's are vastly superior to the 8ths, and even moreso if its early 8th

19:07 <uni> hm I think it's DesDiv 4 and DesDiv 8

19:07 <uni> also yeah Ali, power creep

19:07 <Ali> And Nids is probably one of the few races, cause of their unique weapons, have no 'imperial' equivalants

19:07 <Ali> So their guns are not updated to 9ths higher damage standards

19:08 <uni> mmh

19:08 <Ali> Well take the heavy bolter for example

19:09 <Ali> It used to be a 3 shot 1 damage gun

19:09 <Ali> Now its a 3 shot 2 damage gun

19:09 <Ali> So it now murders 2 Nid Warriors if all 3 hit, instead of just one if all do

19:09 <uni> I thought the policy was to keep things 1 damage/1 wound?

19:09 <Schism> What?  But heavy refers to its ROF.

19:09 <Ali> uni, not a chance

19:09 <Ali> The Lascannon is a D6 weapon

19:10 * uni blinks

19:10 <uni> huh

19:10 <uni> I think this just shows how little I know

19:12 <Ali> Well I find it too random, and heck, newer versions of the lascannon have gone D3+3

19:12 <Ali> Though right now its still D6 for mahreens

19:12 <Ali> But what's sad about it, is that with the right rolls, you can obliterate almost any Nid monster from the field with two of them

19:12 <Ali> Bad rolls and they just laugh it off

19:13 <Ali> I just don't think dice rolls should be involved in damage.  The game is random enough

19:14 <uni> mmh

19:15 <uni> it also doesn't quite make thematic sense

19:16 <Ali> Oh want to talk thematic

19:16 <Ali> The Red Terror nerf

19:16 <Ali> In 3rd it was a big bad Monsterous Creature

19:17 <Ali> In 8th's book it returned

19:17 <Ali> As a nerfed bigger ravener

19:17 <Ali> Its Monsterous profile was removed, it's talons being equal to a Hormagaunt's

19:17 <uni> eww

19:17 <uni> they're butchering things

19:17 <Ali> So what that ment

19:18 <Ali> Is that in 3rd, you got no save vs's its melee attacks due to it being a Monterous Creature

19:18 <Ali> In 8th, it's Talons had an AP modifier of ZERO

19:18 <Ali> Meaning you got your normal ass save

19:18 <Ali> So while in 3rd it could butcher marines like fodder

19:18 <Ali> Now its talons just plink off their armor

19:18 <Ali> Oh and to make it worse, 1 damage output

19:19 <Ali> so a marine takes 2 lucky hits to kill just one

19:19 <Ali> And a terminator needs 3

19:19 <Ali> And do not send 8th red vs a termie, its an auto lose every time

19:19 <Ali> as you're fighting a 2+/5++ guy and you're plinking off that armor

19:20 <Ali> While 3rd's Red would rip them to shreads, as it would ignore the 2+ armor, and they only had 1 wound, so if they failed, they were dead.

19:21 <Ali> To make it 'feel' the same, they should've given it Monsterous Scy Tals

19:21 <Ali> As it would have the 3 damage profile along with the -3 to armor

19:23 * Ali boops the Librarian and Schism

19:32 <Finwe> Mlles Ali and Schism; Messrs AppleDash, Cepheid, Librarian, Lumindia and uni.

19:32 * Finwe doffs his hat.

19:33 * uni flops on Finwe

19:33 <uni> I'm going down such a rabbit hole

19:33 <uni> I'm so glad I'm in a uni

19:33 <Finwe> o3o

19:33 <uni> I hope the library has obscure history reference books

19:33 * Finwe hugs the uni.

19:33 * uni squeakies happily, is a uni too!

20:32 * Finwe just won a game of Hedgewars.

20:32 <uni> ooh nice!

20:32 <uni> what's Hedgewars?

20:32 <Schism> Ever play the Worms series of games?

20:32 <Finwe> It's like Worms, but with hedgehogs.

20:32 <Schism> This.  :3  

20:33 <Finwe> Bee instead of pigeon.

20:34 <uni> ooh~

20:34 <uni> any differences from Worms?

20:34 <uni> or is it like a reskin

20:34 <Finwe> Open-source version of Worms.

20:34 <uni> I see!

20:34 <Finwe> http://hedgewars.org/

20:34 <Schism> It's probably best defined as a mixture between Worms 2 and Worms Armageddon, open-source, with most items similar to the classic game.  The Ninja Rope is very much classic Worms rather than modern-day.

20:35 <uni> ooh okay

20:35 <Schism> s/classic game/classic series

20:36 <Finwe> Don't forget to terminate the replacement string. o3o

20:37 <Finwe> Care to play with us?

20:37 <uni> aww I'm kinda busy though

20:37 * uni pouts

20:38 <Finwe> Maybe later then.

20:39 <uni> okie!

20:39 * uni is halfway through translating a chapter of a book

20:40 <Finwe> From which language are you translating?

20:40 <uni> Japanese!

20:40 * uni pouts, can't read half the kana

20:40 <uni> I just want to know the order of battle for the Main Body of the Second Fleet for Operation E on the 9th of December 1941

20:43 <Schism> Ali: for your consideration, https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FAlhAHHWEAIA_hM?format=jpg&name=large

20:43 <uni> eeeee that's so cute!

20:43 <Schism> Because Ali erroneously believes that vees and eons are cuter than Vulpix and Ninetales.

20:43 <Ali> But you just proved the point Schism

20:43 <Ali> That eon is cuter than your fox

20:44 <Schism> No, I showed that a Flareon in a yukata with a flower in its ear is objectively cute.

20:44 <Ali> Still a cute eon, like you

20:44 * Ali bleps

20:45 <Ali> saucy

20:45 <Schism> Oh stop it.  :p

20:46 <Ali> Stop what?~

20:47 <Finwe> uni: Who? Ali?

20:47 <Finwe> No doubt she's cute.

20:47 <Ali> In your dilusions

20:48 *** Quits: uni (uni@Pony-vsu1ja.ucl.ac.uk) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

20:48 <Finwe> What's a dilusion? A portmanteau of delusion and dilution?

20:49 * Ali might of missed an l or so

20:49 * Ali is also trying to get Luna to lay down so she can get flea meds on her shoulder blades..

20:49 * Schism hugs Ali. "Luna the cat who was bleeding?"

20:50 <Ali> We're not 100% sure, but I think it was Tia, she has some pretty bad scabs on her neck area

20:50 <Schism> Meep...

20:50 <Ali> Eh, flea bites

20:50 <Ali> She might be allergic to them

20:51 <Ali> Had a cat that was before, and every place they bit, she scabbed up really bad.
