00:27.51 | TekDroid | I... uh... Yeah, no. |
00:27.55 | The_Randomness | wow |
00:28.58 | TekDroid | And that's just advanced textures for our Solar system. XD |
00:29.07 | The_Randomness | Sounds pretty nice though |

00:37.50 | Wormy_away | I was watching Atlas Shrugged, a film about becoming a hero by taking control over your destiny and being selfish |

00:38.38 | The_Randomness | oh gosh, I've heard of the book by that name |
00:38.50 | GD12 | Which book are we referring too? |
00:38.53 | Wormy_away | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_Shrugged |
00:38.56 | GD12 | Ayn Rand? |
00:39.06 | Wormy_away | Yeah, I watched part 1 of the film |
00:39.31 | GD12 | Did not know there was a film series of it |
00:39.34 | Wormy_away | I'm aware of Ayn Rand through "All watched over by Machines of Loving Grace" documentary series |
00:41.11 | Wormy_away | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_egoism |
00:41.22 | TekDroid | I think it's a 3 part film, i don't think the last one was out yet. Fairly minor, lower budget sort of thing. |
00:41.55 | Wormy_away | It wasn't that low budget (first one anyway) |
00:42.26 | The_Randomness | This xkcd expresses my opinion of said book http://xkcd.com/1049/ |
00:43.09 | TekDroid | mid-budget maybe. Not international feature film type thing though. |
00:43.34 | Wormy_away | lol |
00:44.00 | TekDroid | I know it had a fairly limited release |
00:44.01 | Wormy_away | I find Objectivism a mix bag of things I like and things I despise |
00:44.27 | TekDroid | I agree. |
00:44.59 | TekDroid | There was an XKCD title text that summarized it... |
00:45.19 | Wormy_away | That and Rand didn't seem like a nice person, at least according to this series http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Watched_Over_by_Machines_of_Loving_Grace_%28TV_series%29#Love_and_Power |
00:45.53 | TekDroid | " I had a hard time with Ayn Rand because I found myself enthusiastically agreeing with the first 90% of every sentence, but getting lost at 'therefore, be a huge asshole to everyone.'" I think I ended up somewhere near this. XD |

00:47.30 | Wormy_ | 00:46] <Wormy_away> I felt like that with the film |
00:48.07 | Wormy_ | I could see the characters were supposed to be heroes but I wasn't sure if I liked them because they were selfish |
00:48.33 | TekDroid | Pretty much. |
00:49.02 | The_Randomness | From the wikipedia article wormulon linked earlier, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_egoism#Ayn_Rand |
00:49.47 | The_Randomness | What other conclusion am I supposed to come to through that other than "Altruism is bad, ergo be a complete asshole."? |
00:50.44 | Wormy_ | Thats the essence |
00:51.24 | TekDroid | O.o Space Engine was about to try and install to my Spore CD. |
00:52.15 | Wormy_ | wot |
00:52.23 | Wormy_ | Don't let the AI take over |
00:52.37 | TekDroid | Close, but wrong drive. XD |
00:53.19 | Wormy_ | Hm, she said "he certainly does not deserve it" when asked if a weak man is beyond love. |
00:58.23 | The_Randomness | The main problem I have with it is that it runs completely in the face of how I view the world. |
00:58.50 | Wormy_ | I'm not sure if rejecting altruism is even rational |
00:59.16 | The_Randomness | Good point |
00:59.48 | Wormy_ | In the end I think even Rand defied her own philosophy and the whole thing collapsed |
00:59.56 | The_Randomness | lol |
01:00.10 | The_Randomness | Her house of cards blew apart? |
01:00.42 | TekDroid | Wormy: Someone found a planet in Space Engine with 1038 moons. O.O |
01:01.19 | Wormy_ | wow |

01:02.35 | Wormy_ | But yeah its all about objectivism in the first episode (critical of it though) |
01:07.19 | The_Randomness | Sounds interesting, although that site you linked me doesn't seem to work |

01:09.34 | Wormy_ | Its on Vimeo too |
01:09.48 | TekDroid | I'll have to ckeck it out later. |
01:11.18 | Wormy_ | And Dailymotion |
01:13.00 | Wormy_ | tell me what you think |
01:13.00 | TekDroid | Rand basically fled Communist Russia to become the anti-communist. :P |
01:13.26 | Wormy_ | Personally I like episode 2, where nature was oversimplified |
01:14.49 | The_Randomness | Listening to it right now |
01:16.01 | Wormy_ | It might give you some ideas for the Salsetthe |
01:16.49 | Wormy_ | 10 minutes is relevant lol |
01:17.24 | The_Randomness | I'm actually at that point right now |
01:18.08 | The_Randomness | Not sure why, but the spanish subtitles are making it even better |
01:18.23 | TekDroid | I'll check it in a minute. :P |
01:19.12 | Wormy_ | The series has a good choice of music imo |

01:33.31 | Monet | BIoshock was greatly inspired by Atlas Shrugged. |
01:34.34 | Monet | SO by the sounds of it she fled Russia, realised how much prosperity cam eunder capitalism then realised it still involved ttampling people. |
01:35.00 | Monet | I've seen Cracked described EVE Online as "If Ayn Rand was given a rocket ship" |
01:35.26 | Wormy_ | lol |
01:35.27 | The_Randomness | lol |
01:36.35 | Monet | COnsidering two legends include "Sell all Goonswoarm's assets" Mittani and that guy who set up a bank to steal everyone's money and put a bounty on himself...sounds abou reight |
01:36.35 | Wormy_ | EVE Online is an experiment constructed by John Galt |

16:28.03 | DrodoEmpire | Nah I think she meant "artistic". |
16:28.24 | DrodoEmpire | Apparently, she also implied that most artists are gay. Dunno where that came from. |

19:52.01 | Wormy_away | hi |
19:55.40 | Wormy_away | Major Grin's videos are quite amusing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPLXFLuhXlc |
19:57.34 | Hachiman | Wormy_away: Is there any comedic value to be found in Stephen's Baxter sci-fi work? |
19:57.48 | Hachiman | Like anything that comes out as intentionally or unintentionally amusing or funny |
19:58.10 | Wormy_away | thinks |
19:58.21 | Wormy_away | Yes |
20:00.12 | Wormy_away | In Ultima, when the Roman spaceship started to rotate to produce artificial gravity, the people inside the ship had to escape indoors, bvecause all the children and babies not used to the microgra\vity had puked and shat everywhere and it caused a rain of excrement and sick |
20:00.40 | Wormy_away | It has that sort of humour I guess |
20:01.28 | Hachiman | Ohgod |
20:01.38 | Hachiman | That sounds horrifying |
20:01.46 | Tek0516 | O.o |
20:05.12 | Hachiman | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:195599 People might not have seen this |
20:05.21 | Hachiman | It's Featured Articles stuff |
20:06.43 | Monet_ | I have but I'm not contributing. I may have stated before. |
20:08.34 | Hachiman | I was not there to see you state that |
20:09.38 | Monet_ | I'm talkign featured articles in general |
20:09.47 | Imperios | Hachiman OluapPlayer: http://static.fjcdn.com/pictures/Captain_5cc9c8_1750680.jpg Pelagrios learns elemental magic |
20:10.22 | OluapPlayer | hur |
20:10.35 | Hachiman | Imperios: It is funny because alcohol is occasionally referred to as "fire water" |
20:10.45 | Hachiman | Monet_: And why are you not contributing to Featured Articles |
20:12.38 | Monet_ | Because it's gone back to being a popularity contest |
20:12.40 | Monet_ | Again. |
20:13.39 | Wormy_away | The problem with creating a featured fictions specifically for new fiction is that it won't solve the problem though. |
20:15.10 | Hachiman | I like to believe that Featured Articles is having problems because nobody is looking at other people's work outside of their friends' stuff and crap that directly involves them, including myself |
20:15.29 | Wormy_away | I think its unavoidable that some fictions get read more than others, especially if we buy into the idea that the fiction universe now has lots of subcommunities, |
20:16.29 | Wormy_away | Though really, I'm more likely to notice stuff by Hachi, Monet, Xho, Oluap etc. becasuse they realte more to my fiction and are more active and post it more often. So other fictions do get blown off my radar. |
20:17.11 | Wormy_away | I do try to look at new user stuff on occasion and look if its posted to me. |
20:18.28 | Wormy_away | Monet Maybe the best we can hope for is to try to get everyone to use Featured Fictions? |
20:18.57 | Wormy_away | I'll be honest |
20:19.09 | Wormy_away | I don't know anything about the Fantasyverse anymore |
20:19.38 | Wormy_away | Its too much for me to handle reading both universes |
20:20.16 | Hachiman | That makes sense |
20:20.43 | Imperios | This rmeinds me |
20:20.51 | Imperios | I haven't worked on fiction in weeks |
20:21.27 | Wormy_away | Anyway I doubt its a popularity contest of users, but it probably is popularity of fiction because this whole fragmented thing going on with the fic universe being too big |
20:22.54 | Tek0516 | I haven't been sure what to do it fiction, GXS seems to have stalled a bit and my main fiction doesn't have a very large role anyway. |
20:26.17 | Wormy_away | I'd like to get the basll rollin with GXS |
20:26.26 | Wormy_away | *rolling |
20:26.53 | Wormy_away | I hate to say it but my fiction days feel doomed once again |
20:27.01 | Wormy_away | Just a total lack of motivation atm |
20:27.25 | Wormy_away | Yet at a time when I'm most excited to develop stories |
20:27.59 | Tek0516 | Charles is away right now though. I'm working on the First Battle of Katar for now, maybe a political section set sometime between that and whenever the DCP try and attack it again. |
20:29.18 | Tek0516 | If I get bored of GXS I have a plot I've been meaning to start for some time. |
20:33.47 | Tek0516 | It's hard to portray the DCP nicely in the first half of the First Battle of Katar. You can't easily put a positive spin on a series of one sided invasion of small empires by a hyperpower. XD |
20:35.10 | Wormy_away | lol |
20:35.22 | Wormy_away | They aren't nice |
20:35.33 | Wormy_away | They were nicer once |
20:36.52 | Wormy_away | But as I've revealed in DCP-V war and GXS they have become a runaway train and trapped in its static, rigid column, like in We are all Machines (which may have subconsciously inspired me) |
20:38.01 | Wormy_away | They have failed the Popperian criterion (as its called) too, for it cannot change itself without violence. Thats where Lunarai comes in and I shouldn't apply any more plot reveals |
20:38.18 | Tek0516 | lol |
20:42.39 | Wormy_away | I was looking forward to Uncharted Expanse and might rescue elements, whether or not it becomes a backstory or smaller scale oner I don't know |

20:51.31 | Hachiman | Somebody cannot take opinions it appears |

20:52.15 | Technobliterator | I don't want them to keep making more |
20:52.21 | Wormy_away | I've been recommended Black Flag |
20:52.28 | Wormy_away | Oh I see |
20:52.28 | Hachiman | But the thing is now that they have made Black Flag |
20:52.34 | Hachiman | It's all downhill from here |
20:52.46 | Hachiman | It cannot be topped |
20:52.50 | Hachiman | This is the magnum opus |
20:52.56 | Monet | Hachiman: I'm still here. |
20:52.56 | Technobliterator | Precisely |
20:53.13 | Wormy_away | Yeah a lot of modern games have a lot of content but its widespread and shallow. That is what I've heard about Destiny and the latest AC game |
20:53.25 | Technobliterator | To me, console gaming is dead |
20:53.27 | Xho | I think until I feel 100% better I'm going to put everything I have on hiatus |
20:53.30 | Technobliterator | It died with the end of the PS2 |
20:53.43 | Technobliterator | The PS3's era was the worst |
20:54.01 | Technobliterator | and now, console gaming is on life support |
20:54.36 | Wormy_away | I feel consoles have lost their uniqueness because of the way they have become allinOne entertainment devices |
20:55.00 | Wormy_away | Well, my PC can do all that and better |
20:55.17 | Technobliterator | No, they lost their uniqueness because they lost their games |
20:56.00 | Hachiman | Careful, that sounds like game exclusivity promotion |
20:56.07 | Hachiman | Which I am not fond of hur |
20:56.16 | Wormy_away | Indeed |
20:56.32 | Xho | I think most of this is coming from the fact that 2014 was a dreary year for games |
20:56.50 | Technobliterator | It's not exclusivity, it's games at all |
20:56.59 | Technobliterator | all the PS3 era was MUH REALISTIC SHOOTERS |
20:57.01 | Technobliterator | fuck off |
20:57.10 | OluapPlayer | Exclusivity is still awful and needs to stop right now |
20:57.14 | Wormy_away | I also despise how web and entertainment are becoming less and less universal |
20:57.29 | Wormy_away | broken up by companies |
20:57.35 | Technobliterator | You can understand why it exists though |
20:57.36 | Xho | Also I don't think anyone saw my statement |
20:57.44 | OluapPlayer | Doesn't make it any better |
20:57.48 | Technobliterator | No, I saw it |
20:58.01 | Wormy_away | I did Xho and I agree |
20:58.01 | Technobliterator | I do not think 2014 was the problem, I didn't like the entire era |
20:58.11 | OluapPlayer | I saw it but I don't agree with it hur |
20:58.12 | Technobliterator | The only thing the PS3 gave me was Uncharted |
20:58.43 | Xho | This has been going on for almost five weeks now |
20:58.43 | Technobliterator | MGS4 and MGR, LBP, the first few AC games... |
20:59.00 | Wormy_away | Anyway, games are bloody games as far I'm concerned. I see a game I like the look of. And get it cheap as possible, and play it] |
20:59.52 | Hachiman | Reminds me of JonTron's stance on GamerGate hur |
21:00.18 | OluapPlayer | Don't say things only one person will understand |
21:00.50 | Technobliterator | is not sure who that is directed to |
21:00.57 | OluapPlayer | Hachi |
21:01.02 | Wormy_away | Yeah |
21:01.09 | Technobliterator | I like JonTron though :o |
21:01.18 | Xho | I think gaming has began to wear thin though |
21:01.40 | Wormy_away | Not the games! |
21:01.53 | Hachiman | Basically neither pro-GamerGate or anti-GamerGate if anybody knows about the whole GamerGate incident and arguments |
21:02.10 | Hachiman | The entire thing regarding feminist criticism of the modern gaming industry |
21:02.21 | Xho | Feminazism |
21:02.45 | Monet | All I hear on the internet from gamers post 2012/13 is complaining. |
21:03.00 | Wormy_away | GamerGate upset me because I despise media bullies. But other than that I don't hold it with too much importance to my life. Just so long as media bullies don't take over the whole media |
21:03.41 | Technobliterator | That is because there is a lot to complain about |
21:03.50 | Technobliterator | It's gotten awful and stale |
21:04.16 | Wormy_away | I shall play whatever game I want and drink their tears and laugh at their strange visions of changing society through a twitter war |
21:05.12 | Monet | Technobliterator: It's because in reality humans don't like change. Series that have sold the most have generally kept the same and the majority of complainers on the situation are people who see gaming beyond early instalments. |
21:05.53 | Monet | The consumer pool for FIFA and annual instalment sports games is larger than the pool of people who play the Half-life franchise. |
21:06.43 | Hachiman | While I do think that there are far too many trends being followed in the modern gaming industry and that it could do with change - thus disagreeing with pro-GamerGate - I do not like the idea of imposing such amendments and supposedly amending stuff that does not need unnecessary correct - thus disagreeing with anti-GamerGate |
21:07.29 | OluapPlayer | I just want to play games where you kill giant monsters and stuff |
21:10.35 | Wormy_away | I like the concept of augmented reality gaming |
21:11.10 | Wormy_away | Where you have people with phones and other devices enacting historical battles at historical places |
21:11.49 | Wormy_away | Its a whole new dimension to explore |
21:12.05 | Xho | I am exceptionally bored with living now |
21:19.41 | Xho | I mean I was bored with life beforehand but now with this illness it's just a dreary continuation of nothing |
21:20.44 | Tek0516 | One kind of game I've wanted to play is something that would allow me to play large-scale 3D set-piece space battles. Nothing where you have to build massive fleets 4X style, but just something with an option to create a fleet and launch it into battle against an AI. |
21:20.57 | Technobliterator | Monet, that's an absolute bullshit excuse, honestly |
21:21.24 | Technobliterator | Any look at the FF or MGS franchises - my two favourites - shows that you can have a franchise lasting ages with massive changes between each installment |
21:21.40 | Technobliterator | Whereas games nowadays are basically the same thing released every single year |
21:22.24 | Hachiman | I was gonna say that Japanese franchises like to change a lot over the course their lifespan |
21:22.29 | Hachiman | Not so much Western franchises |
21:22.51 | Technobliterator | Every new console, a new 3D Mario game, and it's always massively different |
21:23.16 | Hachiman | That is not glorifying Japan, I just notice much more change in Japanese franchises than I do with Western ones from where they happened to start out |
21:24.38 | Technobliterator | I am glad Uncharted 4 will be the last in the Uncharted franchise |
21:24.45 | Technobliterator | Because I can just tell that would continue to get stale |
21:24.55 | Technobliterator | Uncharted 3 is essentially the same game as 2 |
21:25.03 | Technobliterator | Not that I didn't love it |
21:25.48 | Xho | Japan is better than the west though |
21:25.49 | Tek0516 | What does pose an issue with series though is no matter what happes you'll see large mumbers of people demanding both huges changes to formula, and also complaing about how terrible something they changed is. |
21:26.01 | Xho | Suicide rates and hentai perhaps not so good |

21:28.15 | Technobliterator | At least 7 million copies |
21:28.25 | Hachiman | Fifa is sold to the most common demographic though |
21:28.32 | Hachiman | Sports people |
21:28.39 | Technobliterator | MGS4 is the best selling third party exclusive on the PS3 |
21:28.42 | Monet | HAchiman: That's my point. |
21:29.06 | Technobliterator | but I don't give a shit about how well a game sells |
21:29.28 | Technobliterator | I don't think I should be concerned if a game I like was bought by millions of other people or not if I like the game regardless |

21:29.37 | Xho | I think |
21:29.41 | Xho | This discussion has no real goal |
21:29.45 | Hachiman | Game sales =/= Game quality |
21:29.50 | Monet | Companies measure by game sales. |
21:30.09 | Monet | Game sales are used as an indicator to how many people have been playing their game. |
21:30.32 | Tek0516 | And unfortunately game sales also give the companies the money to develop new games. |
21:30.59 | Technobliterator | In fact, some of the best games ever made have received lower sales than other |
21:31.01 | Technobliterator | s |
21:31.04 | Xho | Beating a dead horse comes to mind after a certain point though |
21:31.06 | Technobliterator | MGS3 sold only 3.6 million copies |
21:31.33 | Technobliterator | Yet Kojima himself acknowledges that it's one of his best-received games by the fans |
21:32.07 | Monet | But this is WHY big-budget games are often so repetetive. |
21:32.09 | Technobliterator | Final Fantasy IX is the same story, it only sold 5.6 million |
21:32.14 | Xho | Random fact: "Kojima" means 'small island' |
21:32.24 | Technobliterator | lol |
21:32.42 | Technobliterator | oh, it sold 5.3 million |
21:32.43 | Hachiman | Shadow Moses is also a small island |
21:32.49 | Xho | I know I'm failing miserably at trying to remain relevant in this discussion but it won't stop me |
21:32.51 | Technobliterator | yet it is the most popular game amongst the fans |
21:33.11 | Xho | Hachiman: wat dat |
21:33.19 | Tek0516 | I'm not even sure what we're arguing here |
21:33.19 | Technobliterator | Shadow Moses is MGS1 |
21:33.22 | Hachiman | The primary location of the first MGS game |
21:33.24 | Technobliterator | also appears in MGS4 |
21:33.25 | Monet | Those executives in Activision and EA realise that they can make more money selling to a broader demogfraphic than being Innovative. |
21:33.35 | Monet | demographic* |
21:34.06 | Xho | No this argument basically sounds more like a voice of conflicting opinions |
21:34.10 | Xho | Oh wait that is an argument |
21:34.33 | Xho | Yeah I don't see what one is trying to achieve here |
21:34.51 | Monet | The term "among fans" is ireelevant because its' dependant on the size of the fanbase. |
21:34.56 | Monet | irrelevant here* |
21:35.40 | Xho | Can we just all agree on the fact that the Soul series dead and buried and call it a day |
21:37.46 | Monet | In contrast to MGS, Fifa 13 sold 14.5 million |
21:38.51 | Monet | Outselling MGS 2 and 3 combined |
21:39.44 | Hachiman | And yet MGSV is still one of the highest-anticipated games of the year while the next FIFA is not |
21:40.01 | Hachiman | Even if FIFA might outsell MGS games |
21:42.35 | Technobliterator | again, I really don't care if FIFA sells more than MGS |
21:42.38 | Monet | The fact it outsells is what matters on a corproate level and what encourages comapnies ot continue repeating formulae. |
21:42.52 | Technobliterator | in fact I'm siding with Xho and no longer paying attention |
21:43.24 | Monet | The only way things will change is if MGSV somehow outsells gaints like CoD and FIFA |
21:44.04 | Monet | Those who don't like it can happily keep to the indie scene. |
21:46.59 | Xho | Blah |
21:47.17 | Xho | I'm not even sure how this discussion even started |
21:47.19 | Xho | Or why |

22:23.55 | Suppy_ | What are you down with? |
22:24.15 | Xho | Some kind of virus I think |
22:24.26 | Xho | Been ill for almost 5 weeks |
22:24.56 | DrodoEmpire | You should probably see a doctor, assuming you haven't already |
22:25.02 | DrodoEmpire | Just saying. :L |

22:44.08 | Suppy_ | Hey |
22:44.12 | Ghel | Hello. |
22:47.08 | odell | Then it appears to be that I'm one with darker, if not darkest humor. |
22:48.09 | Wormy_away | I just came out to my parents that I'm a transhuman...ist. It did not go down well. |
22:48.16 | Suppy_ | ohohohohh |
22:48.39 | Wormy_away | They want grandchildren, not replicants. I'm not good enough aparentely! |
22:48.42 | The_Randomness | lol |
22:49.21 | Wormy_away | I have a desire to create copies of myself and turn the copies into constructors capable of exploring the universe |
22:51.18 | Wormy_away | Society doesn't understand cyberkin |
22:51.32 | Wormy_away | Yet they readily donate body organs |

23:10.04 | Suppy_ | Works |
23:10.12 | DrodoEmpire | yey |
23:19.10 | Wormy_away | So in Ancient Egyptian mythology, a god with a giant penis gave birth to the universe after making pleasure with himself |
23:19.19 | Suppy_ | Well that's interesting |
23:19.27 | Tek0516 | O.o |
23:19.28 | DrodoEmpire | Huh. |
23:19.31 | DrodoEmpire | Nice |
23:19.42 | DrodoEmpire | :P |
23:19.56 | Wormy_away | People touch the hieroglyph to get the fertility of an "Arabian horse" |
23:21.22 | Suppy_ | I don't get the obsession with fertility |
23:21.39 | Suppy_ | I want to touch a hieroglyph that makes me infertile so I can have fun forever |
23:22.04 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
23:22.32 | Tek0516 | But I can see why they don't mention the origin of the universe when we cover Egyptian mythology in elementary school. :P |
23:23.03 | PandaMechanicus | Because most people see sex as something more than just fun |
23:23.46 | Suppy_ | And maybe porn stars write books for fun but that's not always why we value them |
23:25.51 | PandaMechanicus | I'm not even going to respond to that beyond saying that what starting respect I had for you has been lost. |
23:26.20 | Xho | Can't say I've ever heard of that story |
23:26.32 | Suppy_ | You realize I was being sarcastic |
23:27.03 | Xho | I mean what Wormy said |
23:27.06 | DrodoEmpire | Panda you should probably lighten up... :P |
23:27.15 | PandaMechanicus | Text does not convey inflexion |
23:28.23 | Suppy_ | Spot on. |
23:28.47 | Xho | Unless you mean the creation myth with Atum where he 'spat out' Shu and Tefnut |
23:29.15 | Xho | just understood the reference |
23:29.33 | Wormy_away | Xho: I'm Watching Walking the Nile |
23:29.44 | Xho | Fair enough |
23:30.50 | Xho | There was quite a few creation myths from Ancient Egypt I think |
23:34.24 | Xho | Though I think the Atum one was probably the most prominent since I can't remember the rest |
23:40.07 | Xho | Egypt's history is very difficult to make sense of since their writing system was inconsistent at best |

23:43.13 | PandaMechanicus | I thought it was our understanding of their writing system |
23:43.39 | PandaMechanicus | like for the longest time we thought the symbol for archery was the symbol for music |
23:45.23 | Tek0516 | New map of the Delcath subsector: http://i.imgur.com/VFGKcrM.png |
23:45.43 | Xho | PandaMechanicus: Well it's both |
23:46.44 | Xho | Every single word in Ancient Egyptian had at least one written variat |
23:46.46 | Tek0516 | Farengeto's sectors are part of a sub-sector. Because screw it. :P |
23:46.46 | Xho | variant |
23:47.27 | DrodoEmpire | Nice map Tek |
23:47.50 | Xho | They were also pretty lenient on using Old Kingdom Egyptian and New Kingdom Egyptian in the same script |
23:48.36 | Xho | It would be like using Shakespearean English and Modern English together in one sentence |
23:50.01 | Xho | So not was Ancient Egyptian impossible to translate up until they found the Rosetta Stone but the Ancient Egyptians tended not to think much of the accuracy of their writing |
23:51.10 | Tek0516 | O.o Lol. |
23:52.50 | Xho | I have absolutely no clue how they managed to make sense of Hieratic |
23:53.47 | Tek0516 | Egypt - Because screw everybody in every tike period. |
23:53.49 | Tek0516 | *time |
23:54.31 | Xho | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/57/Prisse_papyrus.svg Honestly what |
23:54.49 | Wormy_away | yeah |
23:54.50 | Tek0516 | O.o |
23:55.18 | Wormy_away | I thought Chinese looked difficult |
23:55.24 | Wormy_away | But thaty |
23:55.44 | Wormy_away | They are nearly all different |
23:55.50 | PandaMechanicus | It's like England back in Shakespear's time |
23:56.01 | The_Randomness | I got a headache by looking at that |
23:56.12 | PandaMechanicus | the spelling didn't matter as long as it sounded somewhat right |
23:56.17 | Tek0516 | How is it that they managed to make a language so impossible to translate and so unrelated to anything else. XD |
23:56.19 | Xho | Pretty much |
23:57.07 | PandaMechanicus | actually this reminded me of something I heard about viking rune findings |
23:57.51 | PandaMechanicus | apparently most of them are just random shit like "I sold two cows for five chickens," even this one really big one that a village used to think was some sort of ancient religious site was actually just a recording of trade |
23:58.03 | Xho | hur |
23:58.16 | Tek0516 | lol |
23:58.33 | Xho | I'm not so sure where Ancient Egyptian formed from |
23:58.49 | PandaMechanicus | oh, and the Sagas were all written ~500 years after the vikings died out, by christian monks |
23:59.18 | Xho | I think it was basically a language that just formed and was as old as Proto-Indo-European |
