00:03.03 | Knight_Alien | So DarcySupremest do you have any Fiction? |
00:04.23 | DarcySupremest | Working on it now, I have dozens and dozens of fractions of pages of fiction and as of right now I am working on consolidating it so I can get my pages and empire in the fiction started |
00:05.10 | Knight_Alien | Ah. |
00:05.16 | Knight_Alien | So what are they Called? |
00:06.53 | DarcySupremest | The Arcanium |
00:07.18 | DarcySupremest | very warhammer 40k inspired grimdark stuff |
00:07.47 | Knight_Alien | I love 40K inspired stuff. |
00:08.22 | Knight_Alien | My Empire , The Eldarisian's are mostly based off of the Eldar. |
00:08.32 | Knight_Alien | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Eldarisian_Empire |
00:08.41 | DarcySupremest | What Galaxy are you ballin in brother? |
00:08.52 | DarcySupremest | Bunsen |
00:09.33 | Knight_Alien | Yeah. |
00:09.52 | DarcySupremest | Mine are more based on the Imperium, as in that whole, Insane levels of Industry and dictatorship, warhungry and Xenophobic because 'thats what god wants' |
00:10.09 | Knight_Alien | The Bunsen doesn't have much going on. |
00:10.27 | Knight_Alien | Oh , a new Imperium would be good for some. |
00:11.11 | DarcySupremest | I'd like a meatgrinder to justify that level on industry and war but thats proving a little harder then I thought |
00:12.39 | Knight_Alien | Well when you first start usually they are Tier 4 so you may want to boot up your techies if you want to wage war. |
00:13.10 | Knight_Alien | And Alliances with other factions that think alike would help. |
00:15.13 | DarcySupremest | Are these tiers on a prexisting scale? |
00:18.34 | Knight_Alien | Like for example youre Imperium is already Tier 3? |
00:18.42 | Knight_Alien | *Your* |
00:19.52 | DarcySupremest | Yeah I mean, where is the scale these Tiers are based on, so I know what being Tier 3 is? |
00:20.49 | Knight_Alien | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Wormulon/Tier_instruction_manual Here |
00:21.15 | Knight_Alien | I can awnser questions in afew minutes , I will be right back. |
00:21.57 | DarcySupremest | I'm gonna run off and have a shower anyway so its fine |
00:22.17 | Knight_Alien | ok |
00:25.39 | DarcySupremest | okay that makes sense, now I know what everyone is talking about |
00:25.50 | DarcySupremest | Anyway i'm gonna go run and have a shower, brb |
00:37.14 | DrodoEmpire | test |
00:39.03 | Knight_Alien | Finally I turned my Empires mian space station into a sort of Vegas (Minus the Sin city) |
00:39.57 | Knight_Alien | Did you see it Drodo? |
00:40.52 | Knight_Alien | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Space_station_Ether#City |
00:42.48 | DrodoEmpire | Not yet. |
00:42.51 | DrodoEmpire | I'll see. |
00:43.25 | Wormy_STO | Knight_Alien: Thats the old Tier scale |
00:44.00 | DrodoEmpire | "Old" Tier scale, Wormy? |
00:44.01 | DrodoEmpire | :P |
00:44.04 | Knight_Alien | oh. |
00:44.04 | DrodoEmpire | What do you mean? |
00:44.14 | Knight_Alien | Wait their is a new one? |
00:44.20 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:44.21 | Wormy_STO | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User:Wormulon/Types_of_civilisation#Tier_Scale_V3 |
00:44.23 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah... |
00:44.48 | Wormy_STO | Sorry its a bit of an essay, still a work in progress but nearly there |
00:44.57 | Wormy_STO | I'll put it on a forum soon |
00:44.59 | DrodoEmpire | What was wrong with the old one? |
00:45.21 | DrodoEmpire | Was there any consensus or prior approval for this "superior" one? :P |
00:45.32 | DrodoEmpire | I personally find the current one to be just fine |
00:45.35 | Wormy_STO | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User:Wormulon/Types_of_civilisation#Tier.2FClass_scale_merger |
00:46.02 | Wormy_STO | Mev and Ghelae merged the tier scale and class scale |
00:46.25 | Wormy_STO | The tier scale still has the same format, but its much more flexible |
00:46.43 | Wormy_STO | I certainly don't need permission to edit my scale thank you :P |
00:46.51 | DarcySupremest | Rooooitingio I'm back again |
00:47.14 | Wormy_STO | The older *version* (I should say) had problems |
00:47.16 | DrodoEmpire | Well, Wormy if this effects the entire fictionverse you sort of do. :P |
00:47.23 | DrodoEmpire | Just saying. |
00:48.07 | Wormy_STO | Then I'd tell you about it |
00:48.17 | DrodoEmpire | Not to be argumentative, but I'm a little surprised I haven't heard much of this |
00:48.40 | DrodoEmpire | So this is more of a minor adjustment than anything else? |
00:48.41 | Wormy_STO | The third version has been about for a while and I've talked about it many times. Its also up to people to listen |
00:49.08 | DrodoEmpire | So its the one we've been using, then? |
00:49.34 | *** join/#sporewiki Technodroid_ (~androirc@149.254.182.152) |
00:49.45 | Wormy_STO | Basically, the older tier scale was too linear, and I wasn't sure what do with Tier 2 |
00:50.32 | Wormy_STO | Ghelae had revolutions in class scale, so we merged the two. Tier 2 is the hyperspatial revolution that links a megastructural civilisation to a Tier 1 |
00:50.48 | DrodoEmpire | I see, |
00:50.54 | DrodoEmpire | So its the one we've been using, then? |
00:51.00 | Wormy_STO | If you look at Tier scale V3, thyere is no Tier U |
00:51.05 | Wormy_STO | yeah |
00:51.27 | DrodoEmpire | Alright, sorry about the misunderstanding |
00:51.38 | Wormy_STO | Instead the new scale allows for multiple types of alien civilisations (i.e. swarms or hiders) for each tier |
00:52.10 | Wormy_STO | Fair enough. I understand why, it hasn't been formally announced and maybe you wasn't there whenever I've discussed it |
00:52.37 | DrodoEmpire | Its possible I wasn't paying attention to the chat, yeah |
00:52.48 | Wormy_STO | In fact, its about finished. I can make a forum about it tomorrow. |
01:11.00 | DrodoEmpire | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Drodo_Empire#Superweapon - Completely rewrote this section. |
01:11.33 | DrodoEmpire | Please; Take a look and provide some feedback! |
01:14.56 | Wormy_STO | I liked the congealed blood explanation |
01:15.28 | DrodoEmpire | Thanks |
01:18.42 | Knight_Alien | I love it. |
01:19.16 | DrodoEmpire | Thanks! |
01:20.08 | Knight_Alien | It makes sense and the weaknesses and Strengths even out. |
01:20.49 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
02:02.58 | DrodoEmpire | test |
02:21.40 | *** join/#sporewiki GD12 (427591e7@gateway/web/freenode/ip.66.117.145.231) |
02:21.50 | GD12 | Hello |
02:23.24 | GD12 | DarySupremest : Do you have any new ideas on your fiction? |
02:23.31 | GD12 | or any developments regarding it? |
02:31.20 | DrodoEmpire | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Drodo_Empire#Superweapon - GD12 redid the superweapon section |
02:31.50 | DarcySupremest | Oh sorry GD12 I didn't see you talking to me |
02:32.27 | DarcySupremest | I am currently in Early Space stage now and pretty much read to release the history drafts |
02:32.28 | GD12 | DrodoEmpire : BRAINS |
02:32.33 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
02:32.33 | GD12 | i see |
02:33.12 | DarcySupremest | I still need to do appearence and military stuff plus like government structure but those are going to be added incrementally to the page once its up |
02:33.37 | GD12 | i see |
02:34.46 | DrodoEmpire | Any thoughts GD? |
02:35.59 | GD12 | Well, you should perhaps include a section on how able the superweapon is at penetrating forms of nbc protection |
02:36.07 | GD12 | like the equivalents of hazmat suits or hermetically sealed rooms |
02:36.33 | DrodoEmpire | Why would it need any of those capabilities? |
02:36.53 | DrodoEmpire | The undead can bite through them ideally, and its only occasionally delivered by air |
02:37.17 | DrodoEmpire | As well its main target is at civilians; Its a terror weapon |
02:38.12 | DarcySupremest | Okay I might nip out for a feed, if anyone is still on in like 15 minutes or so this might be ready for the fist readers |
02:38.31 | DarcySupremest | first* |
02:38.50 | GD12 | ill be on int 15 minutes |
02:38.58 | DarcySupremest | sweet |
02:39.10 | GD12 | Well how effective would the initial infection be if the entire planet was under some sort of biohazard safety protocol? |
02:39.20 | DarcySupremest | well I'ma go drive somewhere and grab something greasy and horrible for me |
02:39.21 | DarcySupremest | so brb |
02:39.34 | GD12 | And how effective would the initial infection be against NBC armored troops? |
02:40.07 | DrodoEmpire | The initial infection is supposed to be unexpected and secretive; Before those protocols are initiated |
02:40.28 | DrodoEmpire | Or at the very least a surprise attack. |
02:40.47 | GD12 | rite, got it |
02:42.01 | DrodoEmpire | The military would be facing the undead themseleves; NBC would mostly be frivolous and a detriment to the infantrymen (due to NBC suits generally being uncomfortable) seeing as airborne transmission isn't common and only used for the initial introduction when using missiles |
02:43.03 | DrodoEmpire | If they aren't using the correct ground tactics as well, they could very easily lose the battle. :P Tanks, automatic weapons, and most artillery wouldn't be very effective against zombies |
02:46.07 | DrodoEmpire | test |
02:55.36 | DarcySupremest | Okay back |
03:02.02 | GD12 | DrodoEmpire : I see |
03:04.26 | TekDroid | Wouldn't things like automatic weaponry be very effective though? |
03:04.44 | DrodoEmpire | Nope |
03:05.08 | DrodoEmpire | Your aim is to hit the brain; Automatic weapons not only waste bullets but are far less accurate |
03:05.15 | DrodoEmpire | When going full-auto |
03:05.55 | DarcySupremest | Actually Drodo, Battle of Yonkers? |
03:06.13 | DrodoEmpire | Hm? |
03:06.17 | DrodoEmpire | What about it? |
03:06.21 | TekDroid | True, but it would still shred the rotting flesh on contact. And if they're in hordes you have large numbers clustered close together. |
03:06.26 | DarcySupremest | This is what you mean right |
03:06.28 | DrodoEmpire | Plus, you might damage the zombie to the point where it is at a crawl; making it even more dangerous |
03:06.35 | DrodoEmpire | Pretty much Supremest |
03:06.44 | GD12 | cough cough high explosive |
03:06.47 | TekDroid | ^ |
03:06.49 | DrodoEmpire | So tek? You're not killing it. |
03:07.16 | DarcySupremest | http://zombie.wikia.com/wiki/Battle_of_Yonkers |
03:07.21 | TekDroid | A nice napalm strike should do some decent casualties. |
03:07.26 | GD12 | I suppose zombies would be quite effective in close quarters urban combat |
03:07.26 | DarcySupremest | Read it |
03:07.43 | DrodoEmpire | In fact your just making more work for yourself; Killing them afterwards assuming they haven't crawled up and bitten your ankle |
03:07.54 | GD12 | But besides that, I doubt they'd be very effective in combat with large lines of sight |
03:08.05 | TekDroid | GD12: Agreed |
03:08.10 | DarcySupremest | Put it this way, most modern weapons currently are designed to maim |
03:08.12 | DarcySupremest | not kill |
03:08.18 | DarcySupremest | because humans can die of bloodloss and shock |
03:08.23 | DrodoEmpire | Tek: In the long run and your unconcerned about massive fire damage from them spreading fire everywhere |
03:08.26 | DarcySupremest | Zombies don't die unless the brain is gone |
03:08.33 | GD12 | Not really, since you have twice the amount of time to shoot them if they are crawlin (i'm assuming crawling zombies are slower) |
03:08.39 | GD12 | Well |
03:08.53 | GD12 | If I bombed your house with a MOAB i'm quite sure that would kill you |
03:08.55 | DrodoEmpire | Only slightly; And you have to adjust your aim |
03:09.13 | DrodoEmpire | Sure it would; But it would be a waste and only if it caused massive brain damage |
03:09.19 | DrodoEmpire | Against undead |
03:09.34 | DrodoEmpire | Modern tactics are woefully inadequate against the undead, in short |
03:09.37 | GD12 | It wouldn't be a waste if it the undead were gathered in a horde methinks |
03:09.43 | TekDroid | ^ |
03:09.47 | DrodoEmpire | It would damage most of them |
03:09.54 | DrodoEmpire | Maim them pretty bad, sure |
03:10.00 | GD12 | *completely destroy |
03:10.18 | DarcySupremest | Seriously, read that Article on the Batlle of Yonkers, specifically the subsection on why the Zombies won |
03:10.23 | DarcySupremest | it answers all these questons |
03:10.28 | DarcySupremest | http://zombie.wikia.com/wiki/Battle_of_Yonkers |
03:10.44 | DrodoEmpire | But only the fraction which actually got a fatal brain-hit from it would be "dead" |
03:11.02 | DrodoEmpire | As for high explosives? Same argument. |
03:11.23 | DrodoEmpire | The best tactics against zombies are napoleonic line and square tactics under a modified capacity |
03:11.23 | GD12 | Well short of completely killing a zombie, it would completely immobilize it |
03:11.26 | DrodoEmpire | So> |
03:11.29 | DrodoEmpire | *? |
03:11.46 | GD12 | Well, its essentially a kill since the zombie is prevented from being of further use |
03:11.46 | DrodoEmpire | It'll still crawl towards you or bite your ankle while you pass by; That is *not* enough |
03:11.48 | GD12 | i.e. |
03:11.55 | GD12 | if you have no arms/legs you cant move |
03:12.26 | GD12 | And if im not making sense |
03:12.27 | DrodoEmpire | So? It'll lay there for years or decades and if it bites a single person in that time you could have an entire new outbreak |
03:12.29 | GD12 | look |
03:12.30 | GD12 | http://deoxy.org/gif/torched.jpg |
03:12.42 | DrodoEmpire | Something tells me I don't want to |
03:12.44 | GD12 | Thats from the Perisan Gulf War, American airstrikes using modern weapons against Iraqis |
03:12.55 | GD12 | NO way in hell a Zombie would survive that |
03:13.02 | GD12 | the brain would be utterly toasted |
03:13.12 | TekDroid | It'd also starve eventually, would it not? |
03:13.20 | DrodoEmpire | They don't feel hunger. |
03:13.26 | DrodoEmpire | Or thirst or anything |
03:14.10 | TekDroid | I know some kinds do experience starvation or totally decay, depends on the fiction though. |
03:14.16 | DrodoEmpire | It'd have to rot, which would take a *long* time for the undead considering most microbes avoid them in the first place due to the weird nature of the undead virus in Brook's books (WWZ, Zombie Survival Guide) |
03:14.24 | GD12 | If an artillery shell/missile/bomb can't kill or disable a zombie, then a bullet through the head would be pretty useless |
03:14.30 | TekDroid | ^ |
03:14.33 | GD12 | However |
03:14.37 | DrodoEmpire | No, it NEEDS THE BRAIN TO BE DESTROYED |
03:14.39 | GD12 | all of this depends on how realistic we want to be:) |
03:14.45 | DrodoEmpire | Have you been *listening*? |
03:14.46 | DrodoEmpire | ::P |
03:15.13 | GD12 | Well, a high explosive bomb going off right next to you and your buddies will blow up your brain as well as any bullet |
03:15.15 | DrodoEmpire | Explosives *can* kill them, obviously; It just isn't efficient as many will survive |
03:15.19 | DrodoEmpire | Of course it would |
03:15.31 | GD12 | It is very efficient if they are in a horde |
03:16.01 | DrodoEmpire | But in a tight horde many may survive as you have the ones in front, on top, or behind you to act as meatshields for your very small and specific target |
03:16.08 | DrodoEmpire | Humans are very fragile in comparison |
03:16.12 | GD12 | Well, this depends on how realistic you want your zombies to be. |
03:16.15 | TekDroid | ^ |
03:16.31 | DarcySupremest | Hate to break the arguement here but can I ask what the general method of FTL is used in the fictionverse |
03:16.36 | DarcySupremest | is it just a warpdrive:? |
03:16.41 | DrodoEmpire | Warp or Hyperspace usually |
03:16.44 | TekDroid | The problem here is that there's so many vastly different interpretations of them |
03:16.49 | GD12 | warpdrive/ hyperdrive for more advanced people |
03:16.55 | TekDroid | Warp or hyperspace depending on tech. |
03:17.04 | DrodoEmpire | I'm using the Max Brooks or Romero zombie as my basis |
03:17.14 | DarcySupremest | I'd imagine Hyperspace is more advanced? |
03:17.14 | GD12 | Under the constraints of Max Brooks zombies, you are absolutely correct |
03:17.21 | GD12 | Yes hyperspace is more advanced |
03:17.26 | GD12 | However |
03:17.28 | DarcySupremest | Roighto |
03:17.31 | DrodoEmpire | And those are the general constraints I *use* |
03:17.34 | GD12 | Max Brooks ZOmbies aren't all that realistic imo |
03:17.50 | TekDroid | Generally warp until high tier 4, some use transwarp for high tier 4, then tier 3 and up is typically hyperspatial. |
03:17.55 | GD12 | ^ |
03:17.56 | DrodoEmpire | Of course they aren't; They are a completely self-sufficient organism |
03:18.27 | DrodoEmpire | What is your point? |
03:19.00 | GD12 | My point was that in real life, a cluster bomb airbursting near someone would do at least as good a job a sniper |
03:19.06 | GD12 | *at taking out the persons head |
03:19.08 | DrodoEmpire | Of course it would |
03:19.34 | GD12 | but i was derping so i was just wondering where you got the zombie durability from :) |
03:19.35 | DrodoEmpire | But the thing is that with these zombies there is only one way to kill them, as opposed to the dozens of ways for a person to die |
03:19.47 | DrodoEmpire | Alright. Sorry. |
03:20.08 | GD12 | Yeah, no problem I derped a lot |
03:20.25 | GD12 | There have been stupider debates involving us |
03:20.28 | GD12 | like the arrow in plane thing |
03:20.31 | GD12 | hur |
03:20.41 | DrodoEmpire | Not really; You debated well even if it was a misguided premise in your opinion |
03:20.47 | GD12 | Aye, thanks |
03:21.19 | DrodoEmpire | Personally I should have made more stuff evident from the start so there wouldn't be such a miscommunication. :L |
03:21.45 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway, I need to go now. |
03:21.48 | DrodoEmpire | Night, everyone |
03:21.57 | TekDroid | Night |
03:22.08 | GD12 | bai |
03:22.26 | GD12 | DarcySupremest : Are you still going to show us the sneakpeak thing? |
03:22.27 | TekDroid | My morning lab was canceled so I can stay up an extra 3 hours if I wanted. XD |
03:22.50 | DarcySupremest | Yessir I just want to finish this section on and its pretty much done |
03:24.44 | GD12 | TekDroid : The life of a college CS student :) |
03:25.48 | TekDroid | Well more specifically Monday was the Thanksgiving holiday so the week's lab schedules would get screwed up. |
03:26.32 | GD12 | hur |
03:27.04 | GD12 | I very likely wont be able to IRC next semester |
03:27.17 | GD12 | Given my courseload is some form of deathwish that is self inflicted |
03:28.55 | TekDroid | I'm still 1st year. |
03:29.21 | TekDroid | So mine isn't too bad yet. |
03:30.44 | GD12 | Technically I'm still a first year, but I'm a masochist |
03:30.59 | TekDroid | O.o |
03:31.01 | GD12 | I'm physically addicted to stress hormones |
03:32.13 | TekDroid | You sound like one of my friends from high school. XD |
03:32.55 | GD12 | Well if you have any Fresh OFf the Boat Asian Friends, you can probably figure out how I am based off that |
03:32.56 | DarcySupremest | Oooookay all done! |
03:33.34 | DarcySupremest | as much as I can do alone has been done, the rest of it will be ironed out by talking with others but yeah |
03:33.45 | DarcySupremest | I'll put it in my dropbox |
03:35.11 | GD12 | link? |
03:35.40 | DarcySupremest | It coming, I'm uploading it now |
03:36.13 | DarcySupremest | It obviously hasn't been edited yet so just ignore bad grammer or formatting for now, I'll fix it |
03:36.39 | DarcySupremest | Here we go |
03:36.41 | DarcySupremest | https://www.dropbox.com/s/0q8dgdf2h9ghajw/Untitled%201.odt?dl=0 |
03:38.59 | GD12 | Well I've read it |
03:39.02 | GD12 | Let me say this |
03:39.12 | GD12 | It is extremely good for a starter fiction |
03:39.33 | GD12 | Second of all, Leviathans might be a bit unrealistic |
03:39.37 | GD12 | Not that they are too big |
03:39.43 | GD12 | But that they are too big to be steampunk creations |
03:39.58 | GD12 | in that i doubt materials sciences and coal can power things that are several hundred meters tall |
03:41.29 | DarcySupremest | Thats fair enough |
03:42.08 | GD12 | However, aside from that, detail-wise and quality-wise its very good |
03:42.48 | DarcySupremest | I might bonk the biggest one back down to six hundred because the Great Eastern was about that big |
03:43.11 | DarcySupremest | I think |
03:43.14 | GD12 | If its bipedal I'd keep its max height at around 100 meters |
03:43.24 | GD12 | Even the largest tier 1 walkers are around that heihgt |
03:43.32 | GD12 | And thats with tier 1 engineering skils |
03:43.52 | GD12 | *several hundred |
03:43.54 | DarcySupremest | Oh shit, well then yeah totally |
03:44.10 | DarcySupremest | if I'm outdoing like God entitys then thats probably not good |
03:44.11 | GD12 | Sorry If I'm being an annoying nitpick :) |
03:44.34 | DarcySupremest | No thats fine, I just had no frame of reference like that I was basing their size on building heights throughout history |
03:44.43 | GD12 | No problem |
03:45.25 | GD12 | A frame of refernece you might want to use for an explicitly overpowered fiction which is just there to function as an antagonist to a large collab (said fiction dies in the end) is my Dominatus |
03:45.39 | GD12 | Their largest walker is 160 meters high |
03:45.54 | GD12 | And is a very rare super-heavy walker which only recently got developed |
03:46.11 | GD12 | Another frame of reference you might want to use are Titans from 40k |
03:46.20 | GD12 | which iirc vary from 40 - 60 meters for Imperator Class Titans |
03:47.45 | DarcySupremest | Oh god damn it, how did I foget about titans >.< |
03:48.04 | DarcySupremest | WH40k was my life back in high school |
03:48.28 | GD12 | I'm just nitpicking minor details, chill, the rest of it is great |
03:49.11 | DarcySupremest | No I'm angry at myself for forgetting Titans existed is all |
03:49.28 | DarcySupremest | Especially when Leviathens are pretty much Titans, walking fortresses |
03:50.34 | DarcySupremest | Bringing the tallest down to 70 sound less OP? |
03:50.56 | GD12 | Aye, especially for a steampunk base |
03:51.18 | GD12 | 70 meters is hard enough for the Ad Mech to pull off even with 40k tech |
03:51.30 | GD12 | Thats around the range for the taller Imperator Titans |
03:51.51 | GD12 | So its big, but much more feasible than ~700 meters, especially if you're still amking them steam-powered |
03:52.49 | GD12 | In addition, most users don't use walkers, (I think the big exceptions are me, Vincent20100, and Cyrannian), so you'll still have them as something rather unique |
03:53.39 | DarcySupremest | Well I did intend to have Leviathens be their only superweapons |
03:53.42 | DarcySupremest | so thats great |
03:54.43 | GD12 | Furthermore, as your tech advances you could make Leviathan MK2s |
03:55.03 | GD12 | Which would be more advanced, possibly bigger due to advances in different fields of engineering etc |

16:12.31 | Wormy_ | Beer can make me heavily philosophical between the second and third pint |
16:13.12 | Vincent20100 | Hi Mr! |
16:13.14 | Wormy_ | If I wasn't enough already |
16:13.15 | Vincent20100 | Long time no see |
16:13.39 | Vincent20100 | Wormy: I personnaly prefer vodka |
16:15.08 | Wormy_ | Quite a few places my interests in science and philosophy blurs sometimes, but that's okay, good philosophy is as good reasoning as science, since there are knowledge based things beyond the reach of science, including the philosophy of knowledge, morality and beauty. Maybe even qualia. |
16:15.48 | Vincent20100 | Well, we had some similar discussion in a philo class once |
16:15.56 | Wormy_ | But science is no doubt to me, the best way to understand the physical world. |
16:16.28 | Vincent20100 | And the guided the conclusion to be that Philosophy itself is a science, just like physic, chemestry ormathematics |
16:16.31 | Wormy_ | If not the only way |
16:16.43 | Vincent20100 | Philosophy is the Science of Logic |
16:17.27 | Vincent20100 | Science is a very large word Wormy |
16:17.48 | Vincent20100 | I think it's better to talk about Siences instead |
16:17.52 | Wormy_ | Well, to say science can reach into those fields is scientism. I think there are places where science and philosophy can't be separated though, such as: any scientist has a moral duties to the truth |
16:18.12 | Wormy_ | If not, its bad science or psuedoscience |
16:18.23 | Vincent20100 | Well, you can go even farther than that |
16:19.12 | Vincent20100 | You can go as far as saying since philosophy is Logic, and logic is within every sciences... |
16:19.30 | Vincent20100 | For example, it comes from Logic to say that 2 + 2 = 4 |
16:19.50 | Wormy_ | Philosophy is bigger than logic too. But I'd agree that all good philosophy requires methods of reasoning and the reach to find good explananations. |
16:19.59 | Vincent20100 | Yah |
16:20.38 | Wormy_ | Beware though, of reductionism. Some reductionists see all this as a hierachy, with logic as a bedrock. But that reasoning can fail. |
16:20.39 | Vincent20100 | THe problem with the philosophical science is that, like for every sciences before, people transformed it into pseudo-science |
16:21.36 | Vincent20100 | Like for astronomy. Saying earth was flat made of astronomy a pseudo-science. BUt when you use the correct scientif method, Astronomy become a science |
16:21.58 | Wormy_ | I'd prefer the term "bad philosophy" in that case |
16:22.22 | Vincent20100 | It's the same for Philo. If you don't use the Scientif method, Philo is a pseudo-science. BUt when using Scientific method, Philo can be a science |
16:22.22 | Wormy_ | and bad methodology |
16:23.33 | Vincent20100 | It is sad to say, but not every philosophies are right. some of them are wrong. Just like any other scientific fields |
16:23.36 | Wormy_ | Well, you are almost there. There is something the scientific method and good philosophy fall under, but the scientific method can't be applied everywhere (scientism), some things like morality and epistemology are outside it |
16:23.51 | Vincent20100 | yah |
16:24.13 | Vincent20100 | But Morality and Philosophy are separated things |
16:24.21 | Wormy_ | The scientific method is based largely on good philosophy (good, because its critical enough to improve itself) |
16:24.37 | Vincent20100 | Morality come from Law |
16:24.59 | Wormy_ | There is a philosophy of morality. And these fields are not seperated |
16:25.19 | Wormy_ | As we've agreed, philosophy and science cannot be seperated |
16:25.29 | Wormy_ | they need each other |
16:27.36 | Wormy_ | Sometimes I wonder whats outside philosophy (but unlike mystcism or faith), able to make something analogous progress in whatever that might be. |
16:28.39 | Ghelae | How do you define philosophy, in order to understand what might not fall under that definition? |
16:29.01 | Vincent20100 | Well Ghelae, defining terms isn't our jobs |
16:29.11 | Vincent20100 | It's the jobs of people who created a langue |
16:29.33 | Vincent20100 | http://www.thefreedictionary.com/philosophy |
16:29.45 | Wormy_ | The bit I'm defining would be under reason largely (with more philosophy outside it), but once you have that, you start thinking about types of reasoning, like the search for good explanations (which implies the scientific method) |
16:30.20 | Wormy_ | or if you are anti-realist or positivist, a formal description |
16:30.31 | Vincent20100 | Definition no. 6 would be the best for here |
16:30.32 | Vincent20100 | 6. The discipline comprising logic, ethics, aesthetics, metaphysics, and epistemology. |
16:30.58 | Wormy_ | What would alien philosophy be like? I think while it could be completely divergent from human thought, but still capable of generating knowledge. Otherwise it would be completely divergent |
16:31.07 | Vincent20100 | Honestly, I would say dictionnaries are the kinda the ultimate books |
16:31.34 | Vincent20100 | Well, as long as it fits with the definition, it would be philosophy |
16:31.55 | Wormy_ | OA puts the question better http://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/45e648b4a5fc0 |
16:33.03 | Ghelae | I would prefer something like definition 2, i.e. not just a listing of topics but a single overarching feature or set of features. |
16:33.47 | Ghelae | My point being, you can't begin to know what would fall outside the realm of philosophy without first knowing what properties a discipline needs to not be part of philosophy. |
16:33.50 | Wormy_ | Yeah |
16:34.29 | Wormy_ | I guess I already defined it in my question, forms of non-reasoning like blind faith, which requires raw, unjustified belief |
16:34.39 | Vincent20100 | Yah, definition number 2 would wrok too, execpt for the "or values," part |
16:34.41 | Wormy_ | Or magical reasoning |
16:35.08 | Vincent20100 | We spent a whole semester explainging why values mean nothing |
16:35.59 | Ghelae | But the fact that magical reasoning is inaccurate requires empircal evidence that the universe works to the contrary, does it not? |

16:36.11 | Imperios | Hi |
16:36.14 | Ghelae | Hello. |
16:36.17 | OluapWorker | impu |
16:36.25 | Vincent20100 | Hi Imper |
16:36.28 | OluapWorker | finish paeg |
16:37.04 | Imperios | Almost done with it |
16:37.27 | Wormy_ | Ghelae: Well method 2 says "based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods." If not, maybe magical reasoning could be considered bad philosophy from an epistemolgical standpoint |
16:37.51 | Wormy_ | I think philosophy and non philosophy blur into each other at in-seperable points anyway |
16:37.55 | Ghelae | I think it may count as valid logic but with flawed axioms. |
16:38.40 | Ghelae | This is where I suppose the divisioning of sciences come in: formal sciences (such as logic and maths) involve taking axioms and seeing what conclusions can be drawn from them, very roughly speaking, while the natural sciences require axioms that are based in our observations of reality. |
16:39.32 | Ghelae | That our universe is (as far as we can tell) logically self-consistent and describable by logical and mathematics is one such axiom that connects those two branches together. |
16:39.47 | Ghelae | logic and* |
16:40.34 | Wormy_ | Formal sciences study the abstract world, natural sciences explore the physical |
16:40.45 | Ghelae | That's another way of thinking about it. |
16:40.53 | Wormy_ | yes |
16:41.11 | Ghelae | Of course, there's also the social sciences. In this classification, they're equivalent to the natural sciences, but focusing on more complex aspects of the physical world. |
16:41.15 | Wormy_ | And the windows of abstraction |
16:41.35 | Wormy_ | Where would epistemology go? Both I believe |
16:42.39 | Wormy_ | Observation is certainly a part of good science but you still require conjecture and criticism (like testability, which can work at even a meta-level of science) |
16:43.32 | Wormy_ | And that can kind of thing is itself explained by epistemologists like Karl Popper |

16:44.15 | Wormy_ | Hi |
16:44.21 | Ghelae | A basic description of the scientific method would be: seeing what happens in the universe and coming to conclusions based on that evidence. Conjecture is required to generate conclusions while criticism is required to ensure that those conclusions are valid. |

16:45.59 | Catface | gives Ghelae a bucket of fresh cream |
16:46.10 | Wormy_ | An interesting about the scientific methodology is that it can and does criticise itself, improving its own ground like it does with theories we can generate with it. |
16:46.22 | Wormy_ | hi |
16:46.25 | Wormy_ | and hi |
16:46.26 | Ghelae | uses the cream to make a gigantic ice cream |
16:47.36 | Wormy_ | Ah thats a better way to put it |
16:48.13 | Wormy_ | http://pastie.org/private/xigcvp7npzqqrr8stqqdq. |
16:48.56 | Wormy_ | Basically the scientific method survives its own criticism which is of continual use, so errors within the method are correctable |

17:14.19 | Wormy_ | BTW that was some sarcasm |
17:15.07 | Wormy_ | I think ebola does have a potential to cause a global pandemic. But its far more likely to become endemic in Africa and beyond in countries with poor infrastructure like malaria |

17:28.53 | Catface | raises hand |
17:29.38 | Vincent20100 | Do you try to hand out titles to your dynasty in priority? |
17:30.11 | Catface | Depends, \ |
17:30.20 | drom | An other angle for those who are curious about the scene. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/94/Saltsjobaden_olycka.JPG |
17:30.24 | Vincent20100 | Because in a last game as a spanish, I started to had a problem |
17:31.06 | Tek0516 | Been getting a crash bug since last patch of CKII though. |
17:31.12 | Vincent20100 | My dynasty population exploded, thanks to carefull mariage managing and matrilineal mariages and I handed out the titles almost exclusively to blood-related characters |
17:31.40 | Vincent20100 | THe problem is, my lineage died and ended up playing as one of the dudes of my familly I landed before (as planned) |
17:32.19 | Vincent20100 | But since most land in my realm was held by my dnasty, people almost only married blood-realted cousins and shits like that... |
17:32.51 | Vincent20100 | Result: Two thirds of my dynasty is retarded, slow, imbecial, stuttering etc |
17:33.04 | Tek0516 | O.o |
17:33.16 | Catface | I love CKII. |
17:33.18 | Catface | lol |
17:33.27 | Vincent20100 | Because they all maried among other dukes and counts... Which were all from my dynasty |
17:33.43 | Catface | I usually land my best/strongest allies to help keep them loyal. |
17:33.47 | Vincent20100 | And when my genius breed lineage died out by accident... |
17:34.54 | Vincent20100 | Living Dynasty memeber: 526 |
17:35.33 | Catface | I'm currently trying to create a Croatian empire. |
17:35.49 | Catface | The Byzantines are being jerks, though. |
17:36.06 | Vincent20100 | Total dynasty members: 4.656 |
17:36.21 | Vincent20100 | Killed a bunch of them... |
17:36.32 | Vincent20100 | To "purify" the dynasty |
17:36.48 | Vincent20100 | VAssals were so pissed off that I had to proceed to a "reshuffle" |
17:37.01 | Vincent20100 | Imprisonned everyone and revoked everything |
17:37.39 | Vincent20100 | hand to wait for like 40 years, until a new generation of my familly appeared (and I had to remary them all to continue the purification) |
17:37.42 | Vincent20100 | *Had |
17:38.04 | Vincent20100 | NEw generation isn't pissed off at me for revoking, SO I redistributed |
17:38.11 | Catface | At least your bloodline is 'pure'. |
17:38.19 | Vincent20100 | Well, a bit |
17:38.42 | Catface | My current heir is being trained under the pope. |
17:39.10 | Vincent20100 | I also landed like 33% only of the land to dynasty members and the rest to random dynasties, to prevent that from occuring again |
17:39.20 | Vincent20100 | Still, the genetic damage is kinda done |
17:39.52 | Vincent20100 | I have to check the character screen every once in a while for quick or genius or strong character to repair it |
17:40.04 | Catface | Way to go, champ. |

22:04.00 | TekDroid | There's one thing really bugging me about one of my lectures. |
22:05.08 | TekDroid | They made a big deal out of "fulfilling needs over luxury" in one lab yet as a programmer literally my entire job is making luxury items. -.- |
22:07.32 | TekDroid | Of course they used a ridiculous example to make their point. |
22:09.18 | Monet | What if they referring to "needs" being the essential code? |
22:11.54 | TekDroid | It's a "quality of life" thing. |
22:12.39 | Monet | "form before function" is perhaps a similar phrase I've heard about architecture. |
22:12.54 | Monet | No |
22:13.01 | Monet | "Form follows function" |
22:14.13 | TekDroid | Their argument was refugee tents vs a kid's toothbrush that plays music for the two minutes (completely ignoring its intended purpose as well). |
22:15.21 | Hachiman | But |
22:15.30 | Hachiman | Those toothbrushes are helpful with time measurement |
22:16.11 | TekDroid | Exactly. And encourages brushing habits in children. |
22:16.54 | Monet | I see a proportionality here of "who's needs matter more? The refugee or the kid" |
22:17.14 | TekDroid | Kinda. |
22:18.17 | TekDroid | They also include a bunch of other fun stuff like a big 1% thing and the good old "only you can fix it" bit for climate change. |
22:19.15 | Monet | Hmm |
22:21.54 | TekDroid | Also they showed us one projection of future energy sources they included the details of it on the midterm as though its projection was fact. |
22:24.32 | TekDroid | Of course what probably makes me really hate it is that it's my first and only lecture on Fridays, so I effectively wake up and then sit through that joke of a class. |
22:27.21 | TekDroid | Sorry about going into a rant there. XD |

22:35.04 | Knight_Alien | Hello |
22:37.39 | TekDroid | "This is where I'm going to lose about 90% of you." -> Had already spent half an hour talking about boring stuff already discussed in previous lectures |
22:38.16 | Monet | One of my lecturers likes ot intersperse his slideshows with cats. Sometimes lolcats |
22:39.04 | TekDroid | I wish this guy would do something like that. |
22:43.43 | TekDroid | This guy is more show a concept then spend half an hour talking about it. |

22:53.44 | Monet | Hallo |
22:53.49 | Tybusen | Hai |
22:54.15 | Tybusen | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Admiral_Tzena Monet Hachiman c |
22:54.40 | Wormy_ | My work takes forever these days, I think my fiction days are over |
22:54.48 | Monet | "That Bitch that Burned Vanexia Down" |
22:54.51 | Wormy_ | At least during term time |
22:55.14 | Wormy_ | Its almost midnight and I'm not finished |
22:55.20 | Tybusen | Yikes |
22:55.38 | Wormy_ | I was so hoping to do fiction, and play Delta Rising |
22:55.59 | Wormy_ | and watch Brian Cox's new documentary |
22:56.48 | Wormy_ | Angrybirds: Probably means I can't write in GXS at least till Saturday or Sunday |
22:57.33 | Wormy_ | If I'm lucky |
23:00.35 | Angrybirds | Understood. |
23:01.11 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/WCenSFw.jpg Now is this pizza or lava |
23:01.39 | Wormy_ | too glowy to be pizza |
23:01.55 | Tybusen | The texture isn't right for pizza |
23:02.14 | Tybusen | Cheese shouldn't bake in that pattern either |
23:02.19 | Tybusen | My money is on lava |
23:02.39 | Tybusen | Unless it's a trick question and what we're seeing is a piece of pizza in lava |
23:03.18 | Tybusen | Hachiman: look at page dam u |
23:03.26 | Hachiman | Page not finished |
23:03.31 | Wormy_ | I don't think its lava either |
23:03.50 | Wormy_ | It might have meant to be lava but its no photograph of one |
23:04.01 | Hachiman | Tybusen: I am liking the progress of it though even if it is unfinished hur |
23:04.15 | Hachiman | Wormy_: Correct; it's user-made lava texture |
23:04.36 | Wormy_ | Looks like they used Gaussian blur |
23:05.07 | Wormy_ | fractals yey |
23:06.31 | Tybusen | I'd appreciate it if people left some quotes on Tzena's page |
23:06.40 | Tybusen | even if it's not fully completed yet |
23:06.59 | Monet | I will when I can. But right now I have to write a review for uni |
23:07.10 | Monet | film review for uni I mean |
23:07.29 | Tybusen | rite |
23:08.01 | Monet | Turns out 2001 was smack bang during this period of SF history http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Wave_science_fiction |
23:08.15 | Monet | 2001 a space odyssey* |
23:09.26 | Monet | A hard sci-fi epic at the height when a new generation of authors were experimenting with artistic license and discarding the notion that science fiction had to have some degree of real science to it. |
23:12.33 | Monet | Turns out that era didn't last. |
23:22.28 | TekDroid | Ugh, finally that lecture's done. |
23:23.09 | TekDroid | Brb, it's raining so I'm entering a tunnel. |
