00:21.49 | TekDroid | Our cottage hasn't had a significant update (or repair in general) since at least my mom's childhood. DX |
00:22.07 | OfficerJackal | Lol. |
00:25.35 | TekDroid | Or for that matter much of it is still the original structure my greatgrandparents built. |
00:27.09 | TekDroid | Our boathouse is falling apart and we're not evrn legally allowed to repair it. Only leave it or rebuild on top of a large hill. |
00:29.31 | TekDroid | The bugs were really bad this time, and the lake's beach is often visited by geese (as evidenced by the waste left behind). -.- |
00:30.28 | OfficerJackal | Darn. :( |

01:17.39 | DrodoEmpire | Yes, it has devolved to the level of the 1600's all because running water's gone. |
01:17.42 | DrodoEmpire | :P |

01:56.55 | Tek0516Droid | Lol, the Orthodox religion is in collapse in this CKII game. XD |
01:57.38 | DrodoEmpire | Ouch |
01:57.49 | Tek0516Droid | It's being usurped by TWO heresies. |

01:58.25 | Tek0516Droid | Doesn't help what's left of Byzantium is Catholic and the rest is Mongol |
01:58.35 | DrodoEmpire | Ouch |
01:59.29 | Tek0516Droid | But basically orthodix is split in three and Orthodox is losing right now. XD |
01:59.51 | Tek0516Droid | Also the Aztecs went Catholic. O.o |
02:00.03 | DrodoEmpire | ...wat |
02:00.16 | DrodoEmpire | all of my wat |
02:02.01 | Tek0516Droid | three of the religions with the highest authority are heresies. XD |
02:02.55 | DrodoEmpire | Then at that point there not heresies, but generally excepted belief. :P |
02:03.16 | Tek0516Droid | Well the originals still have more provinces. |
02:03.19 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
02:03.46 | Tek0516Droid | But basically both Coptic and Orthodox are screwed right now. :P |
02:05.32 | Tek0516Droid | Once I get to 1444 I gotta export this. XD |
02:10.10 | Tek0516Droid | Wait... Orthodox passed that heresy in authority... |
02:14.06 | Tek0516Droid | Meanwhile, after losing England to the Aztecs, Ireland is becoming English |

12:35.26 | Hachiman | I might take up watching Transformers Cybertron at some point in the Summer holiday |
12:35.39 | Hachiman | I remember watching it as a kid and didn't see the conclusion |
12:36.23 | ImpyDroid | drom: My camp mates |
12:36.32 | ImpyDroid | Mostly stupid immature teens |
12:37.13 | drom | So they are here to troll? |
12:37.16 | ImpyDroid | Ys |
12:37.20 | ImpyDroid | Ya |
12:37.42 | Hachiman | Typical Russians |
12:37.48 | drom | They all have androids I see. |
12:38.06 | Hachiman | I remember my favourite Autobot in Cybertron was an animal-morphing guy called Leobreaker who transformed into a giant robotic lion |
12:39.10 | ImpyDroid | Lion-Bot hur |
12:39.24 | Hachiman | I also like how, because Cybertron has quite a lot of anime influence included in it because GONZO, the Transformers often made awesome poses |
12:39.37 | Hachiman | A lot more expressive and graphically appealing than Beast Wars |
12:39.42 | Kakashka | I'm ducking you mother bich |
12:39.44 | ImpyDroid | From what I heard, Cybertron had fairly low-quality ankmation |
12:39.51 | ImpyDroid | GODDAMMMIT ZHENYA |
12:40.02 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: That's kinda racist hur |
12:40.15 | Hachiman | Oh it does but it's miles ahead of Beast Wars by a large margin |
12:40.34 | ImpyDroid | Beast Wars was good for its age I guess |
12:40.46 | ImpyDroid | It was one of the first fully CGI cartoons |
12:40.49 | Hachiman | Beast Wars had terrible script and voice-acting hur |
12:40.57 | Hachiman | And horrible graphics but eh |
12:41.32 | ImpyDroid | It had Indrick Boreale's VA as one of the main characters I believe |
12:41.43 | ImpyDroid | *voicing |
12:41.45 | Hachiman | Of course it would |
12:41.55 | ImpyDroid | Dinobot |
12:42.02 | Hachiman | Dinobot was cool |
12:42.14 | Hachiman | Never understood that shitty sword thing he used though |
12:43.06 | Hachiman | All though to be fair he took out about five Predacons with it and beat up Megatron with an improvised club |
12:43.10 | Hachiman | *although |
12:43.32 | ImpyDroid | Megatron had a really good VA though |
12:43.40 | ImpyDroid | YEEES |
12:43.40 | Hachiman | Oh yeah he did |
12:43.53 | Hachiman | Megatron's voice was the best on the series |
12:44.05 | Hachiman | Suave, seductive, elegant, posh hur |
12:45.01 | ImpyDroid | I imagine Volkarus speaking like Megatron personally |
12:48.53 | Hachiman | I still wonder what's the difference between Galvatron and Megatron |
12:51.15 | Hachiman | I reckon it'd be neat if the fictionverse incorporated the separate continuities ideas |
12:51.36 | Hachiman | I know the only real separate continuity that's accepted is the Mirrorverse |

14:47.02 | AdmiralPanda | it's a sequel in the sense of setting, but not characters |
14:47.15 | AdmiralPanda | worlds kinda need time to recover from near-apocalypse-by-shadows |

14:49.34 | AdmiralPanda | which will probably make Random a bit sad, and me wonder why I sat there for longer than necessary figuring out an alternate class, but meh, games |
14:49.50 | OluapPlayer | In that case I should go do my character |

14:52.44 | AdmiralPanda | that wasn't really a serious suggestion anyway |
14:52.57 | OluapPlayer | y even suggest it |
14:53.22 | AdmiralPanda | because I'm Australian, I forgot you people take some of the things I say seriously |
14:53.42 | AdmiralPanda | or more accurately, that you can't tell the difference between me being serious and me not being serious |
14:53.46 | OluapPlayer | Still that's an idea for an NPC |
14:53.51 | Hachiman | I'm gonna be making a character called Marius Suus |
14:54.04 | OluapPlayer | hur |
14:54.19 | OluapPlayer | bleh Paizo site is not loading |
14:54.42 | Hachiman | I wonder whether to play a dwarf Inquisitor or a drow Inquisitor |
14:54.59 | OluapPlayer | Pyromancer or dragonmancer |
14:55.08 | OluapPlayer | Jeremiah or Dragonbro |
14:55.10 | AdmiralPanda | also yeh Paizo hasn't been loading for me all day |
14:55.45 | OluapPlayer | I assume we're starting at level 1 |
14:56.27 | AdmiralPanda | yep |
14:56.46 | OluapPlayer | Gosh darnit Paizo |
14:56.56 | OluapPlayer | What's more important for a sorcerer, wisdom or intelligence hur |
14:57.37 | AdmiralPanda | wisdom |
14:58.06 | OluapPlayer | 5d6 best 3 right? |
14:58.27 | AdmiralPanda | yep |
14:58.39 | OluapPlayer | In that case I got gud rolls |
14:58.53 | AdmiralPanda | it tends to do that |
14:59.10 | OluapPlayer | One of them is 13, another is 17, every other one is 15 |
14:59.15 | AdmiralPanda | as tempted as I may be to run a campaign with normal people that sort of thing gets boring |
15:00.12 | Hachiman | I don't mind if you invite Angry and/or Patriot btw |
15:02.20 | AdmiralPanda | well I was talking about your campaign with that reference but that's just my desperation talking, so don't pay too much attention to it |
15:03.07 | Hachiman | Oh |
15:03.33 | Hachiman | Eh I'm a bit iffy on newcomers after the first sesh |
15:05.00 | OluapPlayer | What's Profession again? |
15:05.08 | OluapPlayer | The skill I mean |
15:05.22 | Hachiman | Means a job hur |
15:05.29 | OluapPlayer | eet shit |
15:05.29 | AdmiralPanda | like I said, that's just my desperation talking; the thought of having to run along to university one-shots for another couple of weeks made me a bit irrational |
15:05.52 | AdmiralPanda | OluapPlayer: prettymuch a job, it's basically only useful as an ultra-specific knowledge skill, or alternatively fluff |
15:05.59 | OluapPlayer | Ah |
15:06.18 | OluapPlayer | I can add ranks to unmarked skills, right? |
15:06.25 | AdmiralPanda | and yes |
15:06.26 | AdmiralPanda | you can alternatively use it to generate a weekly income, but that's pointless |
15:06.48 | OluapPlayer | rite den |
15:08.10 | OluapPlayer | Feats |
15:08.13 | OluapPlayer | This ain't gonna work |
15:08.20 | OluapPlayer | I'm gonna need paizo for that |
15:08.43 | Hachiman | Oh fuck off Paizo you laggy bitch |
15:08.52 | OluapPlayer | It's down for everyone |
15:11.00 | AdmiralPanda | so, potentially a number of weeks until Random decides to finish being dumb? |
15:11.34 | OluapPlayer | He said he'd confirm it today |
15:13.47 | AdmiralPanda | right |
15:18.25 | OluapPlayer | Also turns out Cthulhu really is in Pathfinder |
15:18.29 | OluapPlayer | He's part of Bestiary 4 |
15:21.24 | AdmiralPanda | not really surprised |
15:21.34 | AdmiralPanda | which reminds me, Call of Cthulhu is full of bad |
15:21.47 | Hachiman | The video game? |
15:21.53 | AdmiralPanda | "The wheel on your car goes flat. Roll for insanity." |
15:21.57 | AdmiralPanda | no, the trpg |
15:21.59 | Hachiman | Ah |
15:22.26 | OluapPlayer | Bestiary 4 also has Kaijus |
15:22.28 | AdmiralPanda | literally everything that strays towards neutral on the scale of good to evil is a roll on the insanity table |

15:23.29 | OluapPlayer | Cthulhu's CR is 30 apparently |
15:24.49 | AdmiralPanda | only slightly scarier than a Pit Fiend and slightly less scary than a Mythic anything worthy of being called Mythic :P |

18:46.11 | Monet_ | Xho: Sprewiki now has a new minecraft server |
18:46.59 | Xho | o rly |
18:47.19 | Monet_ | Yeah. I set oen up earlier today |
18:47.24 | AdmiralPanda | I built part of a hell portal but it was tedious moving lava one bucket at a time |
18:47.33 | Xho | gimme ip nao |
18:47.36 | AdmiralPanda | oh, and we have an imperial fuckton of cows |
18:47.57 | Monet_ | Its survival though so in order to build a cathedral you'll need to mine the blocks first. |
18:48.04 | Xho | bah |
18:48.08 | Xho | ain't goin on that |
18:48.10 | Monet_ | What's your Minecraft name? |
18:48.12 | AdmiralPanda | hur |
18:48.19 | AdmiralPanda | Xho is lazy deemun |
18:48.31 | Xho | I like making things, not working to make things hur |
18:48.56 | Monet_ | Okay then if you want a cathedral then we'll dig out the resources |
18:49.14 | Xho | Why can't you make it creative |
18:49.18 | AdmiralPanda | he says we but he means he |
18:49.31 | Monet_ | Actually |
18:49.50 | Monet_ | Perhaps we do have it on creative but survival payers keep to survival mechanics |
18:49.58 | Monet_ | If they want |
18:50.00 | Xho | That can work |
18:50.11 | AdmiralPanda | can you set it up so players can toggle game modes? |
18:50.12 | Xho | I promise not to interfere with survival mechanics |
18:50.34 | Monet_ | AdmiralPanda: Not for individual players I don't think |
18:50.58 | AdmiralPanda | so then wouldn't setting the server to creative put everyone in creative mode? |
18:51.24 | Xho | I'm pretty sure there's an op code for setting individual game modes |
18:51.54 | Monet_ | There is and I think as the guy who set up the server I have admin privelages |
18:52.32 | AdmiralPanda | in that case you should be able to go /gamemode *name* c (for creative) or s (for survival) |
18:53.11 | Monet_ | Right. Xho gimme your minecraft name (Realms can only be accessed via whitelist) and we can try it |
18:53.19 | Xho | Xho3546 |
18:53.21 | Xho | lel |

18:54.58 | Monet_ | Start up minecraft, there's a button in the menu called "minecraft realms" |
18:55.24 | Monet_ | You should see an invite in front of you |
18:55.34 | Xho | I would but I think I forgot my password |

20:46.41 | Xho | Two Creepers |
20:48.52 | Monet_ | Lol. |
20:49.40 | Monet_ | Yeah this is one problem: We can't create dark creepy environments without getting screperssssssss |
20:50.17 | Xho | But it's pretty well lit down here |
20:50.19 | TekDroid | lol |
20:52.08 | Monet_ | Creepers that spawn in sunlight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7RIgs3eygo |
20:53.37 | Xho | I made a sword and the creeper just looked at me like "plz dunt hurt me" |
20:53.57 | Angrybirds | Watching a documentary on training within the French Foreign Legion. On the first day, they divide everyone by the language they speak and essentially tell them, "This is the last time we'll divide you by nationality. The captain will come out in a few minutes to give a little speech. The Francophones here will understand what he says. The Russians here will get the gist of it. Everyone to the right of the Romainians, you guys |
20:54.21 | Monet_ | Cuts out at "you guys" |
20:54.35 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |

20:55.03 | TekDroid | lol |
20:55.41 | Angrybirds | Most of Foreign Legion training is designed to teach these guys French. xD |
20:56.19 | Monet_ | "Welcoem internationals to this international army. So long as you all speak French." |
20:56.29 | TekDroid | Lol |
20:56.53 | Angrybirds | Well, they need a common language. Since the Legion is loyal to France, it might as well be French. |
20:57.01 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
20:57.30 | TekDroid | ...I think I've spent the last half an hour trying to find the adapter for this keyboard. XD |
20:57.41 | Angrybirds | Though Legionaries make a point as identifying as Legionaries, not as their nationality, not even as French. |
21:00.08 | Angrybirds | Anyone here have exceptional special forces? |
21:00.28 | DrodoEmpire | Well, I don't have a private army, so no. |

21:03.06 | Monet_ | Imperios: I think so |
21:03.24 | Imperios | Now that I looked at them closer, I realised that they look a bit like the Ryongyang hotel |

21:03.58 | Xho | All hail our grorious creriarch |
21:04.23 | Monet_ | I know it's meant to be a premier hotel but...that thing jsut looks ghastly |
21:04.33 | Imperios | It looks Soviet to me |
21:04.47 | Xho | It's unfinished from what I gather |
21:05.09 | TekDroid | I can't find the adapter for this keyboard. :/ So much for playing computer games on our TV system. XD |
21:05.20 | Imperios | Considering that the Divinarium is kinda Asian-esque and its main rival is space Japan it's kinda fitting |
21:05.27 | Wormy | Lets see Soviet hotel |
21:05.58 | Xho | Space Japan? |
21:06.08 | Monet_ | Imperios: its built in North Korea, so a reflection of the Soviet Union is somewhat of a guarentee. |
21:06.18 | Imperios | Xho: Artharons |
21:06.26 | Xho | Right |
21:06.29 | Xho | nyan |
21:06.31 | Monet_ | I thought Artharons were Space China? |
21:06.31 | Imperios | Okay space Mongol Japanese Middle Eastern cat people |
21:07.08 | Imperios | Well personally I dunno, both the Radeons and the Radeons are kinda vaguely Oriental hur |
21:07.14 | Imperios | *and the Artharons |
21:07.29 | Imperios | It was my intention to make the Divinarium a bit "Eastern" ever since you came up with the Imperium |
21:07.44 | Imperios | I wanted to make it contrast with the "Western" Draconid Imperium |

21:18.55 | Monet_ | Draconis - Cheeky gits. |
21:19.59 | Monet_ | I myself imagined Kicath as a combination of Austrailians, RUssians and Scots |
21:20.40 | Xho | Dear god |
21:20.50 | Xho | That is like the ultimate disaster zone |
21:21.18 | Xho | I sometimes imagine Kicath having Russian accents |

21:21.39 | Xho | Nu - scots scots everywhere |
21:23.10 | Monet_ | Silent Nu does make me think of Ivan Drago. |

21:25.05 | Imperios | The surname does not sound Russian |
21:25.08 | Imperios | Ukrainian, perhaps |
21:25.09 | Imperios | Slightly so |
21:25.39 | Xho | Well it says Soviet |
21:25.44 | Zillafire101 | Maybe because it sounds like Dragon. |
21:25.45 | Xho | That does encompass a lot of eastern europe |
21:25.48 | Xho | *Europe |

21:37.07 | Monet_ | Probably. |
21:37.08 | Xho | Funny but risky |
21:37.26 | ImpyDroid | That's what the Nazis were doing |
21:37.52 | Monet_ | I myself am just getting sick of this "paedogeddon" |
21:37.53 | Hachiman | I thought the Nazi movement were anti-animal abuse? |

21:39.37 | Hachiman | They replanted a lot of the trees they cut down. Admittedly, some of them took to planting those trees in swastika formations |
21:40.31 | Monet_ | Hachiman: Well look at it this, way, if you look at the pattern fro mthe right direction, it's the "good" kind of swastika. |
21:41.14 | ImpyDroid | Most nations in Eurasia used the Swastika hur |
21:41.24 | ImpyDroid | There are SYNAGOGUES with them |
21:42.19 | Monet_ | Wasn't it Stalin who once said or passed on the phrase "the loss of oen life is tragic, the loss of a million lives is a statistic" |
21:42.38 | Monet_ | Its a very controversial phrase I know |
21:42.46 | ImpyDroid | This quote is attributed to him |
21:43.32 | Zillafire101 | Stalin was just freaking nuts. |
21:43.47 | Zillafire101 | Well, I gotta go down and eat. Cya all later. |
21:45.20 | Xho | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika |
21:45.40 | Monet_ | I can sort-of see where Stalin was ocming from: One death is more personable and more easy to connect to than a million deaths. |

21:46.26 | ImpyDroid | Ya |

21:50.18 | Monet_ | I don't really understand these people who think they can jerk off in public places and not get noticed. |
21:50.46 | Xho | I just realised that the Kanji for the Swastika is 'Manji' in Japanese |
21:50.56 | Xho | Like Manji Clan from Tekken |
21:51.05 | Xho | My heaad |
21:51.08 | Hachiman | ohgod |
21:51.21 | Xho | åå
is how it's written in Japanese |
21:51.52 | Monet_ | Xho: Bloody hell |
21:52.19 | Xho | Though it's a Buddhist term for love and mercy |
21:52.30 | Xho | Not fascist supremacy |
21:52.47 | Monet_ | Well the swastika's name has been dragged though the mud and shot in the head thanks to the Nazis |
21:53.33 | Monet_ | "employees noticed a man with no pants on peering though office windows" >> Some people... |
21:54.46 | Monet_ | I don't get the appeal of walking around on the street with no trousers on |

21:58.03 | *** part/#sporewiki Ghelaway (1f351e3b@gateway/web/freenode/ip.31.53.30.59) |
21:58.34 | Monet_ | This story reminds me of when Homer Simpson tried to run for mayor while wearing a fire safety salamander mascot outfit |
21:58.49 | Wormy | oh yeah |
21:59.18 | Monet_ | It got tothe point where much of his camapign appeal came fro mthe fact he was a 6ft tall anthropomorphic salamander. |
22:02.15 | Monet_ | Xho: Maybe the Nazis tried to put forward some kind of message with their altered Swastika? As it was mentioned they -were -extremist environmentalists. |
22:02.24 | Xho | Probably |
22:02.25 | ImpyDroid | Well |
22:02.39 | ImpyDroid | Swastika was used in India |
22:02.40 | Monet_ | And regimes like what they wanted are nice ot be in SO LONG AS you conform to their standards. |
22:03.13 | ImpyDroid | And in the early 20th century it was believed that Europeans originated in India and/or Persia |
22:03.19 | Monet_ | Also the "monsters" of the Nazi party were the SS. |
22:03.34 | ImpyDroid | So I believe the Nazis wanted to have a pan-European symbol |
22:04.23 | ImpyDroid | Hence the term Aryan. In modern science, this term is used to refer to Indians and Iranians and the related peoples, like gypsies for example |
22:05.00 | Monet_ | There was something of divide between the Nazi party and the German population in general |
22:05.07 | ImpyDroid | Ya |
22:05.17 | AdmiralPanda | Hitler wanted his pet master race, and wanted to tie everything he possibly could to this idea |
22:05.43 | Wormy | Some Native Americans also use a swastika like symbol I read somewhere once |
22:05.59 | AdmiralPanda | the more evidence he could find that peoples of different nationalities were interconnected, the more proof he had that there was this mythical "Master Race" from which the Germans descended |
22:06.11 | ImpyDroid | Oh boy yeaaah |
22:06.40 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Well TBH Hitler mostly took the ideas that were already flying in the air in Germany |
22:06.46 | ImpyDroid | The Thule Society etc etc |
22:07.02 | AdmiralPanda | of course, and then he dived off the crazy end |
22:07.23 | Monet_ | I recall in the graphic novel Maus, after escaping a train from Aushuitz the writer's father was given refuge by a family of a German mother and a Jewish father. |
22:07.46 | Hachiman | Wormy: Could you explain to me what neutron-degenerate matter is again in basic? |
22:07.55 | Wormy | Yes |
22:07.59 | Technobliterator | bbl |
22:08.01 | AdmiralPanda | it almost makes you wonder what history would be like if Hitler was a competent enough leader to not need to make war a scapegoat for the flaws in his own policies |
22:08.06 | Technobliterator | well, probably not but oh well |
22:09.16 | Hachiman | I know that NDM is supposed to be the heaviest possible form of matter that's capable of forming in the known universe according to the realm of physics |
22:09.16 | ImpyDroid | And how |
22:09.16 | ImpyDroid | You know what frightens me? Similar ideas fly in the air in modern Russia |
22:09.16 | ImpyDroid | There are many Thule Society-like groups in here |
22:09.16 | ImpyDroid | As well as normal racists |
22:09.18 | Monet_ | AdmiralPanda: Several dictators start off with good intentions, but the pressures of running a nation at the top tend to get to them |
22:10.00 | ImpyDroid | Funnily enough, Hitler had some pretty decent policies |
22:10.05 | AdmiralPanda | I just love that Hitler thought he could run all of Germany by having the final say in everything |
22:10.16 | Wormy | Hachiman: Basically, it is a form of degenerate matter, made up of neutrons (so is chemically inert and non-interacting), forms where the star collapses to a point that it is energetically favourable for electrons to combine with protons to form neutrons |
22:10.17 | Monet_ | Nations are just too big an institution for an alpha male to lead everything. |
22:10.29 | ImpyDroid | He was just too arrogant for his own good |
22:10.47 | Monet_ | "I can handle it" |
22:11.00 | Wormy | Neutron degenerate matter is more like a gas really |
22:11.09 | AdmiralPanda | there are many analyses that point to the fact that the Panzer divisions had to go through Hitler in order to mobilise as the primary reason the allied forces succeeded |
22:11.16 | Hachiman | So rather than a solid it's a form of gas? |
22:11.33 | AdmiralPanda | in the D-Day landing that is |
22:11.48 | ImpyDroid | I just realised |
22:12.20 | ImpyDroid | I would probably have better chances of survival in Nazi Germany than in Stalinist USSR |
22:13.20 | Monet_ | Hachiman: NDM is quite fluid. Its conversion into "neutronium" makes it a lottle more solid. |
22:14.04 | Wormy | Hachi: I'm not sure if solid is really applicable to NDM, as it is electrically neutral. But given its compactedness, you could make structures out of NDM you could not out of atomic matter |
22:14.32 | Wormy | Its more for structural integrity than armour plating, basically |
22:14.48 | Wormy | It might also be useful for artificial gravity |
22:15.25 | Monet_ | It might be too heavy for terrestrial environemnts. A few grams can weigh several tonnes. |
22:15.48 | Wormy | A thimblefull would weigh the same as Everest |
22:17.17 | Wormy | Though, in a sense it would destroy atomic matter if you had enough of it. Because if you jumped six feet onto a neutron star you would plummet at thousands of meters per second (probs more) and become a nuclear explosion about an inch tall at best |
22:17.18 | AdmiralPanda | I just realised something that proves how astoundingly advanced the Necron race's technology is |
22:17.56 | AdmiralPanda | everything they build, even their own bodies, is comprised of self-controlling nanomachines |
22:18.25 | Wormy | I remember when one geology student did an awful density mis-calculation equal to NDM |
22:21.19 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: The Silent King is actually senator Armstrong |
22:21.20 | Hachiman | So rather than wearing NDM armour it's more for building foundations? |
22:21.45 | Monet_ | Building framework or starship skeletons. |
22:21.46 | Wormy | I'd think so |
22:22.52 | Monet_ | I might need to rework the Sunwrath's page then. I think I mentioned each ship has a thin layer of neutronium underneath the outer hull. |
22:23.53 | Monet_ | A thin layer of neutronium and a monopolium framework |
22:24.03 | AdmiralPanda | I never bothered with ship armour too much, Fordan ships work on the principle that avoidance is better than ablation, and the ISF just repair all the damage they take a la necrodermis |
22:24.42 | Wormy | That would be very dangerous, monopoles catalyse the decay of neutrons |
22:25.12 | Wormy | The DCP stabilises by injecting small black holes with an equal charge to the overall nuclear matter balanced by the black hole's gravitational strength |
22:25.18 | Hachiman | So neutronium is the heaviest matter in the universe? |
22:25.50 | Wormy | Quark Degenerate matter would be denser |
22:26.00 | Monet_ | WOrmy: I have considered that: The frames are surrounded by a vacuum and are phasic-shielded. |
22:26.07 | Wormy | but it is hypothetical |
22:26.54 | Wormy | Oh well, at least it keeps our engineering approaches more unique |
22:27.51 | Wormy | Then beyond degeneracy, of course, you find singularities. |
22:28.15 | Wormy | though the term "matter" breaks down at that point |
22:28.50 | Wormy | Kip Thorne talks about what singularities are "made of" here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvdlN4H4T54 |
22:30.16 | Wormy | The Xeelee Construction Material beats NDM by far http://spacebattles.wikia.com/wiki/Xeelee#Construction_Material |
22:32.27 | Wormy | I can see this being accessible right across the tier scale http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_hydrogen |
22:36.58 | Wormy | Hachi: Weight is kind of relative really, mass is not. And density, is mass per unit volume http://www.mathsisfun.com/measure/weight-mass.html |
22:39.56 | Wormy | Geophyscists make extremely fine measurements of the force of greavity using instruments to infer the densities of structures beneath the ground. |
22:40.50 | Wormy | http://www.epa.gov/esd/cmb/GeophysicsWebsite/pages/reference/methods/Surface_Geophysical_Methods/Potentia_Field_Methods/Gravity_Methods.htm |
22:41.47 | Monet_ | Weight is mass multiplied by gravitational pull while density is mass per unit of volume. |
22:50.52 | Monet_ | Watching Nostalgia Critic's review of After Earth. |
22:51.05 | Monet_ | There is a lot of future porn in this film. |
22:51.40 | Hachiman | Pfft |
22:51.44 | Hachiman | After Earth was dumb as fuck |
22:52.07 | Hachiman | If mankind ruined the Earth's ecosphere why the hell are there still massive forests and thriving animal colonies |
22:52.09 | Monet_ | For instance we see one scene of Will Smith's character's wife operating a hologram - and no mentino or indication of what the hologram is for |
22:52.30 | Monet_ | And ther is SO MUCh iPod white. |
22:52.44 | Monet_ | And spandex. |
22:53.00 | Hachiman | Also, the aliens using super-animals that were genetically engineered to sense people's fear is an extremely inefficient and fucking stupid move |
22:53.31 | Wormy | I enjoyed the film Oblivion. One is led to think Earth is devastated but it was full of plot twist |
22:54.19 | Monet_ | Hachiman: Hmm not sure on that |
22:54.40 | Monet_ | It's great for massacring civillians. |
22:54.42 | Hachiman | Keep in mind that those super-animals cannot see or hear or taste or anything like that |
22:54.50 | Hachiman | All they do is just sense fear |
22:56.05 | Monet_ | Actually yeah this is another case of moron alien invaders |
22:57.07 | TekDroid | They'd make great terror weapons, definitely not the best frontline soldiers though |
22:57.10 | Monet_ | SOmeone like whatshisface who shows no fear can ealk right up to one and slash its throat - in fact that's what we see. Whatshisface *walking up behind one of the alien animals* and slashing its throat |
22:57.28 | Wormy | Oblivion did go a bit ipody buit the story and visuals and music is good |
22:57.34 | Monet_ | Zero points in soldier surivability aliens |
22:58.16 | Monet_ | Spandex is a handy material for jumpsuits, but civillian attire...ehhh.... |
22:58.45 | Hachiman | Makes it seem like there's no such thing as fashion hur |
22:59.18 | Wormy | people will be naked in the future |
22:59.56 | Wormy | they might have smart invisible clothes |
23:00.04 | Monet_ | Hachiman: Maybe the alien invasion is that bad |
23:00.08 | AdmiralPanda | unlikely, even if we develop such a degree of cybernetic/genetic alteration that we don't need clothes for protection, we'll still use them as a means of distinguishing ourselves |
23:00.32 | Monet_ | Remember that during the War, brides here in England used parachute silk taken fro mGerman soldiers for wedding dresses |
23:00.40 | Wormy | Mon: You've probably noticed there is a lot of nudity in the Xeelee Sequence |
23:01.05 | Monet_ | Wormy: The Nord's crew? |
23:01.53 | Wormy | That is one example. In Exultant, two the characters have sex and their commissioner just walks in to have a chat |
23:02.09 | Hachiman | Wormy: That happens a lot of Game of Thrones hur |
23:02.22 | Wormy | olol I can imagine |
23:02.27 | Hachiman | I'd enjoy a future where we are instead distinguished by the size and specific, intricate details of our genitalia rather than our clothing |
23:02.45 | Monet_ | Alia's golden fur and the manitee-humans are the closest I think i've seen so far to nudity but I agree that fashion seems to have been largely killed by the Transcendant era. |
23:03.02 | Monet_ | Everyone's either in unassuming grey robes or jumpsiuts. |
23:03.17 | Hachiman | Manitee-humans? Golden fur? |
23:03.25 | Wormy | If humans by then still even regard the concept if being distinguished important (would transhumans?) they might have different ideas how to distinguish yes |
23:04.01 | Wormy | yep |
23:04.53 | Wormy | Alia is a long armed ape-like posthuman born on an archaic generational starship that still functions. But she is more advanced than the AI Gaia (or whatever its name was) and has alien symbiotes |
23:05.13 | Monet_ | Gea |
23:06.01 | Monet_ | I think there was also a "hive" of humans. I can't remember what distinguished them visually other than frail bodies, large eyes and animalistic tones but they may have been completely naked themselves. |
23:06.12 | Wormy | The boox we are talking about is split into the mid 21st century and 500,000 years in the future. Gea represents a hugely sentient AI but even she was a toy to Alia |
23:06.35 | Wormy | Hives appear all the time in the Xeelee sequence, interestingly enough |
23:07.16 | Monet_ | I did wonder why Gea took the form of a robot serviceman resembling a toy that Michael Poole's father considered a patronising git though. |
23:07.32 | Monet_ | Father? Great uncle? |
23:07.39 | Monet_ | Can't quite remember. |
23:08.30 | Wormy | I understand why Baxter chose not to look at fashion in such distant futures |
23:08.52 | Monet_ | Yeah we have no idea what will be considered stylish. |
23:10.24 | Monet_ | Even the "next stage of human evolution" transcendants wore clothes that would be perfect for a monastery. |
23:13.32 | Monet_ | Hachiman: The manitee-humans are a collective of humans who adapted to life on an ocean owrld. There's no land on this planet so the humans adapted to live completely under the sea. Thus they either evolved or modified themselves to become fish-people at the cost of their intelligence. |
23:13.57 | Wormy | I loved the ship in Fountain because it looks so bizzarely different to how we might expect the future to look. And the bloke wears very simple attire https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdmPrsKV0Kg |
23:16.23 | Monet_ | Another recurring theme I've seen in Baxter's work is the possibility that intelligence won't automatically increase. Some human cultures could become less sapient, less intelligent. |
23:17.07 | Monet_ | Particularly in hive collectives or in alien environments. |
23:19.05 | Wormy | There is an excellent Xeelee story where the humans on a generational starship slowly lose their intelligence following repetitive tasks and sexual selection |
23:19.10 | Monet_ | Although...at the same time, these collectives aren't stupid. |
23:19.40 | Monet_ | Wormy: I know who you mean but I forgot what they were called. |
23:20.28 | Wormy | You;d still have crew mindlessly maintaining the ship, such behaviours becoming form of mating displays. And all the women looked like the captain's dead wife |
23:20.30 | Monet_ | That over time maintainence guidelines become rules, rules become dogma, independant thought becomes a luxury. |
23:21.09 | Hachiman | This sounds really damn interesting |
23:24.10 | Wormy | I think the story is Mayflower II |
23:24.40 | Monet_ | Watching After Earth makes me wonder...what is it with the media assuming that a terror weapon is a perfectly acceptable tool for military engagements? |

23:24.54 | Wormy | hi |
23:24.56 | Monet_ | Although best to discuss that later |
23:24.57 | Monet_ | Hi |
23:25.19 | Wormy | It might actually be the fate of humanity. |
23:25.54 | Monet_ | Wormy: I remember Alia mentioning such peopel in Transcendant. That they'd attack other ships for parts to repair their own vessels. |
23:26.04 | Wormy | That brains are objects which require considerable resources. |
23:26.12 | Wormy | we might lose our minds |
23:26.23 | Wormy | lol |
23:26.48 | Monet_ | She described them as being little better than animals, and perhaps wondered why the Transcendance would want them in its collective. |
23:27.31 | Wormy | scarily, you might have civilisations running via mindless zombies |
23:28.50 | Monet_ | The talk of these raiders reminds me a little of modern-day China |
23:34.11 | Monet_ | Hachiman: Baxter has written some pretty interesting stuff. |
23:34.33 | Monet_ | Although one of the main patterns in science fiction seems ot be we don't truly know what to expect. |
23:35.13 | Hachiman | I wonder though if science fiction in most media is becoming too predictable |
23:35.32 | Monet_ | Hachiman: You might have a point there |
23:36.20 | Monet_ | There's a new sci-fi show on E4 called the 100. The background ro it? There's been a nuclear apocolypse, most of Earth's population is dead. |
23:37.50 | Monet_ | The whole "nuclear apocolypse" idea has been presented time and tiem and time again and ever since the Cold War it doesn't seem that fiesable. |

23:38.42 | Monet_ | No nation in their right minds would fire the first missile. I'm sure even North Korea is this smart because whoever they target, half the developed world could fire back and reduce it to a radioactive wasteland. |
23:39.22 | Hachiman | That and from what I'm guessing, 100 people is not enough to repopulate the Earth and have Mankind survive |
23:39.44 | AdmiralPanda | 7000 is |
23:39.50 | AdmiralPanda | anything less and you get a planet full of inbreds |
23:39.51 | Wormy | Well, there is a twist apparentely, that people do live on the Earth |
23:40.34 | Wormy | I think its one of those Lost-esque twisty plot shows |
23:40.41 | Monet_ | Wormy: Well *something* is living on Earth. |
23:40.59 | Hachiman | Where are the humans primarily? |
23:41.12 | Monet_ | In a space station orbiting Earth |
23:41.23 | Monet_ | There's plenty more than the 100 sent to the surface. |
23:41.23 | Wormy | not sure, could be on Earth and the station peole are being lied to |
23:41.51 | Wormy | Thats what I got freom the trailer but I might be inspired by the film Oblivion |
23:42.26 | Wormy | the drones sound awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HV351ID4KCk |
23:42.48 | Monet_ | All we know so far is that the known human population is dead from a nuclear apocalypse, the only survivors live on a station in orbit and they've sent 100 teenagers down to see if the planet is habitable again |
23:42.48 | Wormy | no this 3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEby9OkePpg |
23:42.53 | Wormy | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEby9OkePpg |
23:43.09 | Hachiman | Wait what |
23:43.12 | Hachiman | Teenagers |
23:43.14 | Hachiman | Why |
23:43.59 | Monet_ | Well more lik teens frsh into adulthood but at least one of the girls is 17. |
23:44.16 | Hachiman | Why the fuck are you sending inexperienced hormonal teenagers |
23:44.25 | Monet_ | What all of them do have in common is they're all criminals |
23:44.25 | Hachiman | Send fucking trained adults for fuck's sake |
23:44.31 | Hachiman | WHAT |
23:45.03 | Monet_ | And surprise-surprise, a good portion of them have decided "fuck the adults we are going ot live how we want" |
23:45.13 | Monet_ | Once they got down there |
23:45.27 | Hachiman | Unless you're expecting these 100 teens to die, I have no idea as to WHY or HOW anybody would think this was a good idea |
23:45.52 | Monet_ | Its made very clear to these 100 they're seen as expendable |
23:46.48 | Monet_ | Maybe their plan is to check on the Earth and get rid of a portion of their criminal population in one go. |

23:51.16 | Wormy | sw news http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28203716 |
23:51.46 | Monet_ | Wormy: I heard about that |
23:51.50 | Hachiman | https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10475454_256450581218972_9042159366801235697_n.jpg?oh=43f041d54d5cfea3cff7c04a4528d94d&oe=5412B128&__gda__=1412588688_79de443fd34457d16aa94bbd583b8ccf Have some cringe |
23:51.54 | Monet_ | Hmm... |
23:52.02 | OluapPlayer | olol |
23:52.08 | Monet_ | So wait..is the 100 basically LOST with stuff to do with space? |
23:52.26 | Wormy | probs |
23:52.32 | Hachiman | I thought LOST DID have stuff to do with space |
23:52.44 | Monet_ | This tiem we have scenes in space. |
23:53.19 | Monet_ | I think you're right Hachi. Sci-fi has become a little stagnant |
23:53.21 | Wormy | "Fans are hoping there is no sign of Jar Jar Binks in puzzle wood" |
23:53.34 | Monet_ | Wormy: Lol |
23:53.39 | Wormy | the aesthetics certainly have become stagnant |
23:53.48 | Wormy | ipods. ipods everywhere |
23:54.17 | Wormy | Still, I'm sure more films like The Fountain will come out |
23:54.38 | Wormy | I'm personally looking forward to Interstellar |
23:54.57 | Hachiman | I wish somebody made Xeelee short films at least |
23:55.09 | Wormy | Xeelee anime-style would be nice |
23:55.15 | Hachiman | Aye |
23:55.38 | Hachiman | Reminds me of Space Battleship Yamato a little hur |
23:55.42 | Monet_ | Looking at the 100 and Oblivion I think I have a message for directors: If your film mentions a nuclear apocalypse, try something else. |
23:56.01 | Hachiman | Needs more grey goo scenarios |
23:56.14 | OluapPlayer | Not that grey goo |
23:56.28 | Monet_ | You have a dirty mind. |
23:56.39 | Hachiman | y not dat grey goo |
23:57.13 | Monet_ | Actually I'd like to see mroe science-fiction films that don't involve some kind of apocalypse. |
23:57.39 | Monet_ | We get it, earth is dying and mutually-assured-destruction is an ever present threat |
23:58.39 | Laggybirds | Wormy : We need sci-fi help. |
23:58.40 | Monet_ | Have the last 20 years really affected Western society's psyche to such a degree that the only stories that sell have depressing or apocalypstic setups? |
23:58.48 | Hachiman | I imagine Americans would love the Xeelee stories because action and explosions hur |
23:59.34 | Monet_ | Hell this attitude has even affected Star Trek. |
23:59.48 | Monet_ | Although whether or not they did good or bad I am unsure |
