10:11.43 | Hachiman | Just listened to a short story about the consequences of immortality and, basically, it deals with the idea of immortals eventually coming to lose their memories or having crises of identity to remain young, as immortality in the story does not equate to being ageless |
10:14.11 | Wormy_away | Hachiman: Not an uncommon idea... That eventually people age so much they change into new people, effectively making the older version die |
10:14.44 | Wormy_away | I don't see anything wrong with it, in fact I'm a bit different to the self of my childhood |
10:15.03 | Hachiman | "One day, spring cleaning kicks in, and she donates the diaries and tosses the rest out. On the last page, Diane pens one, final note. "You want to know the real secret that no one tells you about becoming immortal? Eventually, you die."" |

10:15.38 | Hachiman | http://dailysciencefiction.com/science-fiction/biotech/rebecca-lang/what-no-one-ever-tells-you-about-becoming-immortal The story can be read here, it's pretty insightful actually |
10:15.43 | Wormy_away | But perhaps the self is not a point on a cartesian plane, perhaps the self is a fuzzy space which we random walk through in iour lives. Perhaps our fuzzy spaces overlap with other people's |
10:16.00 | Wormy_away | Excellent sounding story |
10:16.28 | Wormy_away | Just finished reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_a_Strange_Loop |
10:48.21 | Hachiman | Perhaps intentional amnesia is a potential saviour for immortals in our world once they appear |
10:49.50 | Hachiman | IIRC the human mind exhausts itself with age and begins to routinely clear data and information - relevant memories and thoughts - more excessively |

12:09.02 | AdmiralPanda | hi all |
12:09.19 | Ghelae | Hello. |
12:10.43 | Hachiman | Hai |
12:11.30 | Hachiman | So according to Age of Sigmar's lore, the reason why Slaanesh is not a prominent Chaos God and was replaced by the Horned Rat is because he/she got fucked over by elves led by Malekith |
12:11.53 | AdmiralPanda | sounds about right |
12:12.01 | Hachiman | Of course the actual reason is because GW is casualizing Warhammer and wants to attract more sales by not bothering to make NSFW models anymore |
12:12.12 | AdmiralPanda | probably |
12:12.40 | AdmiralPanda | which does really suck, some of those models were the best |
12:12.57 | AdmiralPanda | I remember the first time I brought out Daemonettes as minis for a D&D campaign- the party fighter wanted to convert immediately |
12:13.07 | Hachiman | hur |
12:13.55 | Hachiman | Yes, I will miss the opportunity for GW to produce updated models disfigured hermaphrodite lobster women |
12:14.13 | AdmiralPanda | speaking of PnP, homigod someone needs to pull me away from the chromebooks, been spending way too much time making characters |
12:14.38 | Hachiman | hur |
12:15.41 | AdmiralPanda | speaking of, can just send me book 1 through skype or would that mess your internet up? |
12:16.58 | Hachiman | Shouldn't mess the internet up |
12:17.06 | Hachiman | I'd send you it but I cannot find a free copy |
12:17.18 | Hachiman | So in other words, I don't have one either hur |

12:19.33 | OluapPlayer | Hi |
12:19.42 | Hachiman | Hai |
12:22.50 | Wormydroid | I kind of hope that star with the strange signature isn't alien |
12:23.05 | Hachiman | Why? |
12:23.20 | Wormydroid | Because they could wipe us out. |
12:23.43 | OluapPlayer | What if they're super friendly and just want to chat? |
12:24.10 | Wormydroid | If they destroy anyone who becomes sufficiently advanced... this only has to happen once in the universe |
12:24.52 | Ghelae | But remember, it doesn't have to be outright destruction. |
12:24.56 | Ghelae | There's always assimilation etc. |
12:25.34 | OluapPlayer | Or they could be super friendly and just want to chat |
12:25.43 | Wormydroid | I hope so |
12:25.46 | Ghelae | But then why haven't they already called? |
12:26.00 | Hachiman | They do not have our phone number |
12:26.05 | Wormydroid | A protector civilisation only needs to arise once |
12:26.05 | OluapPlayer | Maybe they're busy |
12:26.28 | Hachiman | Remember that we are using hardware that is outdated probably by millennia |
12:26.30 | OluapPlayer | If you're friendly with every alien in the galaxy, that's a lot of people to pay attention to |
12:26.41 | Ghelae | If they're busy for 1500 years, I think that means they don't actually want to chat. |
12:26.53 | Ghelae | I think they'd just find it too awkward to explicitly reject us. |
12:26.55 | Wormydroid | My friend reckons they already know its alien and are going to get us used to the news |
12:27.37 | OluapPlayer | They must have gotten insulted with all the "ayy lmao" jokes and decided to ignore us forever |
12:27.40 | OluapPlayer | Good going, internet |
12:29.14 | Hachiman | Maybe we give the wrong impression that we do not want to talk to them because we are too shy to put ourselves out there |
12:29.38 | AdmiralPanda | just need to make you head of NASA then, you'll put out anywhere |
12:31.21 | Hachiman | yis |
12:31.40 | Hachiman | If the aliens cannot offer us hot chicks, I am sincerely not interested |

13:56.52 | Monet | hi |
13:56.54 | Hachiman | Hai |
13:57.20 | Hachiman | I am playing through XCOM: Enemy Within again and I am saddened by the loss of one of my prized Assault soldiers |
13:57.59 | Hachiman | His name was Dong "Spitfire" Deng and I had paired him up consistently with another Assault soldier from the very start of the campaign whenever I could |
13:58.44 | Hachiman | He died during my first encounter with Mutons |
13:59.00 | Monet | By a Plasma rifle I take it. |
13:59.05 | Hachiman | Yeah |
13:59.39 | Hachiman | He had scored 16 kills and had participated in 11 Missions |
14:01.02 | Hachiman | His partner, a woman called Angeliki "All Day" Antinos, was the first soldier I gave Laser weapons and an Arc Thrower to after manufacturing them |
14:01.02 | Hachiman | And incidentally, the first alien she managed to capture was a Muton |
14:01.16 | Monet | May their saacrifice inspire their companions ot victory. |
14:03.45 | Monet | They shall not be forgotten. |
14:04.11 | Hachiman | Especially with a name like Dong |
14:05.25 | Monet | I really like the idea behind the XCOM series |
14:05.56 | Monet | Have you seen the intro to the original 90s game? |
14:06.12 | Hachiman | I haven't |
14:06.58 | Monet | Lemme find it. |
14:07.43 | AdmiralPanda | I like the XCOM series, what I hate is the fact that more often than not, you get screwed over purely by RNG rather than you making mistakes |
14:08.37 | Monet | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX0Cm3N_n6k |
14:08.52 | AdmiralPanda | funny you bring it up because I was playing it the last few days, I finally ragequit when, despite having enough capacity to launch four satellites at once, such were the missions offered to me that I couldn't even get one of the six panicking cities out of the red in 20 days |
14:09.52 | Hachiman | Yeah it's kinda dum |
14:09.59 | AdmiralPanda | I even got a panic reduction council mission in Europe, and all of europe was one panic bar and completely satellited |
14:10.28 | AdmiralPanda | if that mission was in literally any of the other continents except central america I would have been fine, but no |
14:11.10 | Monet | XCOM aliens: RUninging your day since 1994 |
14:11.17 | Monet | Ruining* |
14:11.23 | AdmiralPanda | up until that point it'd been a perfect run- no failed missions, no lost troopers, but I got screwed over by mission allocation |
14:12.36 | Monet | That looks to me like RNG disguised as the aliens being clever shits. |
14:13.40 | AdmiralPanda | mhm, like I've said before on the matter of RNG in games- I don't mind things like Warhammer 40'000 where the outcome of actions is determined by RNG, what I don't like is things like card games where the options available are determined by RNG |
14:14.16 | AdmiralPanda | especially when all of those options are equally shit :P |

14:21.09 | AdmiralPanda | also Durand doesn't have nearly enough innuendo lines to be a female french character in a videogame |

14:21.48 | AdmiralPanda | you don't have a MEC yet? |
14:22.26 | AdmiralPanda | I mean I know my priorities are skewed but you're fighting mutons and you haven't built a MEC |
14:22.28 | Hachiman | Not yet |

14:24.45 | Monet | Okay that is funny |
14:24.49 | AdmiralPanda | I still remember the first time I took on the alien flagship with just the volunteer (Durand of course) and her five MEC bodyguards |
14:24.58 | Hachiman | Jesus |
14:25.09 | AdmiralPanda | my regular squad is 6 MECs tbh |
14:25.36 | AdmiralPanda | right up until I get the psi armour at which point psykers become fun to use again |
14:25.48 | Hachiman | Yeah, MECs make largely everything else kinda redundant |
14:26.07 | AdmiralPanda | eh not really, I just enjoy MECs greatly |
14:26.28 | AdmiralPanda | archangel sniper with In the Zone like what? |
14:26.50 | Hachiman | hur |
14:27.25 | AdmiralPanda | which funnily enough is what my MECs tend to spend their time doing when not punching things- clearing cover for the sniper to dome people |
14:28.56 | AdmiralPanda | on an unrelated note, I don't understand how you make a female character named "Nightsass" and not expect people to pronounce it "Night's ass" |
14:29.06 | AdmiralPanda | or as it's now become, "Nice-ass" |
14:30.47 | Hachiman | olol |
14:31.17 | AdmiralPanda | the real question is, do I hate myself enough to attempt an ironman game, naming my soldiers after you lovely people so I can tell you how you all died horribly |
14:34.21 | Hachiman | I would say yes, yes you do |

15:30.57 | Xho | Well I'm bored |
15:30.59 | Hachiman | It looked at me funny |
15:32.31 | Xho | Ah yeah I had an idea for the Fantasyverse earlier |
15:32.39 | Xho | I might work on that |
15:34.53 | Xho | Though it's not the most original idea I've ever had |
15:35.37 | Hachiman | What is it? |
15:35.51 | Xho | It's to do with Nalúnt |
15:36.11 | Xho | Now that he's back from the void he's gonna start rebuilding numbers, in other words resurrecting dead dragons |
15:36.23 | Xho | In the form of zombified dragon chimera |
15:37.07 | OluapPlayer | And? |
15:37.34 | Xho | Well I was wondering if anyone wanted to create such horrors as characters |
15:37.38 | Xho | i.e. Nalúnt's servants |
15:38.44 | OluapPlayer | I got nothing |
15:38.56 | Hachiman | I'll think on it |
15:39.54 | Xho | Then miniboss fights everywhere because evil zombies |
15:40.19 | AdmiralPanda | ah precision explosives, whose arses can't you save |
15:40.36 | Ghelae | Does this include all kelodhres or just True Dragons? |
15:40.44 | Xho | Just True Dragons |
15:40.54 | AdmiralPanda | also Monet you need to get your eyes checked, apparently a dustbin is enough to stop you from seeing an alien rape monster |
15:41.06 | Xho | I doubt Nalúnt would concern himself with anything less |
15:41.17 | Hachiman | She is pretending she does not see it |
15:41.41 | Monet | Here in ENgland we just call them bins. |
15:41.57 | Monet | Dustbins sometimes. |
15:43.06 | Monet | Xho: Sounds interesting but I've been inactive from the fantasyverse for ages. |
15:43.26 | Xho | I'm kind of tentative on the idea since it's basically Alduin resurrecting dragons |
15:43.39 | Xho | Though it makes sense in the setting |
15:44.12 | AdmiralPanda | my hatred of undead makes me approve of the idea but my inability to care about the fantasyverse makes me unable to care |
15:54.58 | AdmiralPanda | outsider captured |
15:58.24 | AdmiralPanda | well, Hachi's dead because the aliens have managed to crit every single fucking bullet they fire |
15:58.59 | Hachiman | Jesus |
15:59.18 | AdmiralPanda | well you actually died becuase the floater hit you for 6 then a seeker jumped you |
15:59.33 | AdmiralPanda | but still, every single hit my troops have taken so far has been a crit for 6 or 7 damage |
16:01.07 | Monet | Nice |
16:02.03 | AdmiralPanda | that was hits taken |
16:02.10 | AdmiralPanda | as in those hits have been making people nearly die |

21:48.29 | The_Randomness | Just read the article, doesn't seem to be terribly interesting other than a really hot tidally locked planet |

21:50.19 | Ghelae | Most planets are planets of death. Just a lot of them are non-chaotic planets of death. |
21:50.30 | The_Randomness | Indeed |
21:51.50 | Xho | What exactly could we harvest from Venus anyway |
21:52.16 | Xho | I guess geothermal energy |
21:52.27 | Xho | But it wouldn't be much use cross-planetary |
21:52.43 | Xho | Unless you could store geothermically generated power |
21:52.44 | The_Randomness | I personally think that colonies on the Moon would be more viable and practical |
21:52.57 | Ghelae | Venus has nicer gravity. |
21:53.01 | The_Randomness | True |
21:54.21 | Ghelae | In fact, I think we're not being ambitious enough. |

21:56.27 | The_Randomness | Hmm, let me check what the Sun's local gravity would be outside of the atmosphere |
21:57.12 | Xho | Though wouldn't it be better to put a Dyson Sphere around the Sun rather than colonise it |

22:42.21 | Zillafire101 | Hey everyone. |
22:51.09 | Monet | hi |
22:54.20 | Wormy_ | I might have been a bit pessimistic earlier |
22:54.51 | Wormy_ | One thing I remembered after my rant is that schools teach you what to think, not how to think. |
22:55.36 | Wormy_ | These kids will be very adept with the digital world, and will find it intuitivewly easier, perhaps more than us. But they still need knowledge and skills |
22:55.58 | Wormy_ | And so we may be teaching them one day |
22:57.43 | Wormy_ | I also forgot I know ca man in his 40s more adept in the latest tech than I am |
22:58.10 | Wormy_ | He can control lights and temperature in his house from his blumbing phone |
22:58.19 | Wormy_ | Ultra-geek |
22:58.31 | Wormy_ | *phone at work; I should add |
23:00.28 | Wormy_ | Anyway, at rthis tech festical I saw all manner of new tech and retro, dating even back to the 19th century |
23:00.47 | Wormy_ | In a way I found the older stuff more interesting |
23:01.27 | Wormy_ | Machines from the Industrisal Revolution are so elegant and still work. |
23:01.44 | Monet | So the situation of "hold everything, someone's wron on the internet" could get worse? |
23:01.56 | Monet | wrong* |
23:02.46 | Wormy_ | But there were also 3D printers, laser cutters, and all manner of "hacker" communities who turned up, showing their DIY robots and hacked machines: a 1982 PC which displays Twitter tweets, and hacked toys |
23:03.35 | Wormy_ | I'm not sure could you describe that a little more? |
23:08.29 | Monet | "hold on someone's wrong on the internet" = when you sink time because someone somewhere on Internet states something that you disagree with. I'm wondering if the schools' tendencies to teach what to think rather than how to think would mean more people end up doing it. |

23:10.04 | Zillafire101 | Hello again all. |
23:10.46 | Hachiman | I will never get over how awesome it is to see MEC Troopers using the Kinetic Strike Module to wrestle with Mechtoids and Berserkers |
23:11.07 | Hachiman | I was just in a mission where I was attacked by what, four Berserkers and their Muton escorts |
23:11.09 | Wormy_ | Ah I see, quite poissibly. But I think part of growing up gives us those life skills in the end |
23:12.22 | Wormy_ | Colleges abd universities werealways about teaching us how to think, but commercialisation might be changing that. |
23:13.25 | Wormy_ | Instead students are "customers", and unions have the power to stop people who's opinions they don't like from having talks. |
23:13.34 | Zillafire101 | I'm off to play Battlefront 2. Wish it was still canon. |
23:15.17 | Monet | Zilla_SW: The only people who say its all non-canon is Disney. You still have groups like BioWare making great Star Wars EU stuff |
23:16.01 | Zilla_SW | Eh, maybe. I'm still sore about the whole thing though. |
23:16.08 | Wormy_ | I don't really give much to what Disney says |
23:16.39 | Zilla_SW | They've managed to produce one emotion I've never thought I'd have towards star war. Indifference. |
23:16.45 | Wormy_ | I feel that Legends could fit into the new EU as well, "legends", with some truth. |
23:17.18 | Wormy_ | Especially if galactic society has broken down in the films. |
23:18.19 | Monet | I wonder if this might have been popularised by the MCU |
23:19.05 | Monet | Star Wars may have started it, but the MCU created something of a rebirth in the idea that films could show massive multimedia universes. |
23:19.14 | Wormy_ | In a way I look forward to see what new content is made, especially tech. Though I fear the movies will be a mess up and the new canon filtered by Disney less diverse. But that is my feeling, not necessarily the truth |
23:20.02 | Wormy_ | Maybe |
23:20.28 | Monet | The MCU certainly made DC think "hey we could try that" |
23:20.54 | Wormy_ | I noticed the theme music went very MCU in the trailer when the Millenium Falcon was in hyperspace |
23:21.11 | Wormy_ | Or Star Trek, owing to JJ Abrams |
23:21.26 | Monet | I mean right now the Marvel Films are respecting the stuff going on in Daredevil, Agents of SHIELD and vice versa. |
23:21.58 | Wormy_ | Do you think when Marvel acquire the rightws to X-men, we could see them in the MCU? |
23:21.59 | Monet | There have been a couple of Agents of SHIELD episodes that expanded stuff that went on in the movies. |
23:22.44 | Monet | I don't think we're getting MCU X-Men, but word is Sony are planning on giving up their Spider Man license. |
23:23.18 | Monet | Which is good because in the original Civil War story, Spider Man played a notable role. |
23:23.41 | Wormy_ | yeah |
23:24.44 | TekDroid | X-men is still very much profitable for Sony. Unlike the hits and misses you get with Spiderman |
23:25.17 | Monet | The MCU has adopted the term "enhanced" to refer to mutantkind. |
23:28.10 | Wormy_ | I do admit, the X-men do follow a different narrative to the rest. |

23:30.13 | Liquid_Ink | Hello |
23:30.22 | Wormy_ | Although I do have this great Marvel comic, that has no limits on what superhero groups appear. |
23:30.51 | Wormy_ | I find all the different universes a bit confusing for my taste |
23:31.40 | Monet | What's the comic's name? |
23:32.26 | Monet | Rule of thumb with the Marvel universe is that Universe-616 is the Prime Universe. |
23:33.29 | Wormy_ | I'll find it |
23:38.23 | Monet | There was one alternate universe portrayed in the Age of Ultron series caused by Wolverine killing Hank Pym to prevent the rise of Ultron. |
23:39.40 | Monet | In that timeline however, Hank was thought to have been killed by Skrulls and a long chaiin of events and a convenient attack by Enchantress in Eastern Europe leads to Tony Stark as lord-protector of the Western Hemisphere. |
23:45.10 | Wormy_ | I have a bad feeling I got rid of it |
23:45.35 | Wormy_ | I went through a massive culling spree of my things last year |
23:45.59 | Monet | Well no matter |
23:46.32 | Monet | Honestly Marvel's been around so long that they've done time travel and parallel universes several times |
23:48.14 | Monet | Take Kang the Conqueror for instance: A 40th century scientific genius, creates a time machine to go to Ancient Egypt to make Apocalypse his chief enforcer but is foiled by the Fantastic Four who also travel back to Ancient Egypt and end up ending his brief reign as pharaoh. |
23:52.10 | Wormy_ | lol |
