17:50.15 | drom | TekDroid: It was something I'm worried about |
17:50.29 | drom | I found out that you can easily get very bored if you've free time. |
17:50.34 | Imperios | AnonyLurk: Personal seal of the Highlords and the Lord Protector |
17:51.23 | AnonyLurk | But for what purpose? |
17:51.28 | AnonyLurk | Is it for signing things, or what? |
17:51.31 | Imperios | Yeah |
17:51.48 | drom | TekDroid: And vice versa: Too much work makes you a bad boy |
17:52.21 | AnonyLurk | Are the things being signed by wax, or ink, or what? |
17:52.34 | Ghelae | drom: The sheer number of people who express the "teleporters actually kill you" point of view is so much I wonder if any of them actually think they're being clever and saying something that thousands of other people haven't already thought of. |
17:52.35 | AnonyLurk | Is the signer manually drawing the seal each and every time they sign something, or do they have a signet ring or equivalent device? |
17:57.14 | Imperios | AnonyLurk: Probably some *technobabble technobabble* holographic thing |
17:57.19 | Ghelae | drom: At ,e |
17:57.27 | Imperios | Could also be used on government facilities as a symbol |
17:57.30 | Ghelae | At least it eventually brings up the real-world equivalents. |
17:58.56 | Ghelae | But really, the whole problem seems to be based on an implicit assumption of continuity, or at least conservation, of consciousness, i.e. a spatial/temporal break in consciousness being identical to one consciousness being destroyed and another one created. |
17:59.41 | AnonyLurk | So it's not something that has to repeatedly drawn, often and clearly, on a regular basis. At least without readily available access to advanced technology with which to draw/paint/sculpt it? |
18:00.31 | TekDroid | AnonyLurk: I think you're reading too much into a simple symbol used to represent a position of power |
18:00.59 | Imperios | AnonyLurk: Considering there may be some tribal worlds under ecumene protection |
18:01.11 | Imperios | tHerre could also be a manually drawn variant |
18:02.56 | Imperios | Hachiman Wormy_ Xho: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Her_Majesty%27s_Most_Loyal_Opposition_(United_Kingdom) What the hell is that title |
18:03.11 | TekDroid | Ghelae: I agree. It implies some deep inherent meaning in the perceived continuity of a continuously changing arrangement of atoms. |
18:03.21 | Imperios | Do you really call your opposition "Her Majesty's Most Loyal" |
18:03.30 | AnonyLurk | I was just thinking that, since the gaps depicted in the symbol or small, they would likely become indistinct when you draw it. |
18:03.30 | AnonyLurk | http://imgur.com/395h1su |
18:03.37 | AnonyLurk | So you'd end up with something looking more like this in practice. |
18:03.51 | AnonyLurk | There is also the fact to consider of what it looks like if you don't have multiple colors to work with. |
18:04.01 | Wormy_ | Imperios: We just call them the Opposition. But yeah, funny title. |
18:04.02 | AnonyLurk | Purple ink might be difficult to come by in a hostile environment. |
18:04.55 | AnonyLurk | See, when you take all the colors and lines and gaps away, as would be likely to happen if it was attempted to be produced by an unskilled individual with little resources and equipment, the symbol just appears to be a hexagon. |
18:05.05 | Hachiman | They are the Opposition because they rival the current political party that has a Prime Minister |
18:05.14 | AnonyLurk | Which wouldn't be good if you were, say, stranded on a planet and had to signal to your space-fleet that you're not dead and need rescue. |
18:05.20 | Hachiman | They are still loyal to the Queen |
18:05.21 | Imperios | I undertstand that by what's with the fancy title |
18:05.36 | Imperios | *but what's |
18:05.47 | Charles_Bot | Imperios |
18:05.50 | Charles_Bot | Crap |
18:05.52 | Charles_Bot | Ugh |
18:05.53 | Hachiman | I dunno, guess we did not have a better term for it |
18:06.02 | Charles_Bot | It's very significant |
18:06.13 | Charles_Bot | Like, actually a foundation of democracy |
18:06.39 | Charles_Bot | Can I explain it to you over the phone or something? I don't have time to type it out |
18:06.41 | AnonyLurk | Compared to this http://imgur.com/sW05U4j historically used seal, where although it is decorated and detailed, even if that all gets blurred out by the wax melting or it being drawn by a peasant, you can still pretty clearly tell "That's an M in a circle". |
18:06.43 | Wormy_ | Ghelae, TekDroid, drom: I dipped into this discussion a bit late. If the mind is epiphenomenal, it is quite compatible with the argument that consciousness doesn't require such sharp contininuity. The level of meaning is not in the atoms (though determined by it), but at a more emergent level of interactions. |
18:06.59 | AnonyLurk | Kind of like how the phonetic alphabet is designed to be idiot-proof so you don't make mistakes during radio communications. |
18:07.04 | AnonyLurk | ...I think about things too deeply. |
18:07.06 | AnonyLurk | It's a cool symbol! |
18:07.47 | Wormy_ | Consider people who wake from comas. The deepest comas are truly unconscious. Are we to say the original person died? I don't think it can be a binary thing, our continuity in time is indeed just as fuzzy. |
18:08.04 | Wormy_ | And that's in the waking world |
18:08.16 | drom | Wormy Ghelae TekDroid: The way he explained how our consciousness works when we go to bed. You'd have the same body but you actual self die and the body gets a new yet very similar consciousness. |
18:08.27 | AnonyLurk | Wormy_. |
18:08.34 | Imperios | Charles_Bot: You mean in Skype or something? |
18:08.35 | Imperios | Could do |
18:08.39 | AnonyLurk | Consider that, when you are asleep or in a coma, your brain still exists. |
18:08.43 | Ghelae | drom: But there's no need for that. It can still be the same self if you don't assume continuity of consciousness. |
18:08.46 | Charles_Bot | Skype could work |
18:08.50 | AnonyLurk | It's still a functioning organ in your skull that's processing some degree of information, however little. |
18:09.02 | Wormy_ | Your hardware exists. But the mind, the software, is not. |
18:09.05 | AnonyLurk | Whereas, with the teleported, once you get teleported your brain is absolutely irrevocably destroyed. |
18:09.19 | drom | Ghelae: That's wht I meant, you are still yourself, but your consciousness won't be the same. |
18:09.32 | Charles_Bot | Imperios: danaliieth |
18:09.32 | AnonyLurk | Your brain is still processing information when you're asleep, you're still THINKING when you're asleep, but you might not be able to PERCEIVE that you are thinking or REMEMBER doing so. |
18:10.03 | Wormy_ | Yeah I don't disagree with the former. But remember because the brain processes information, it is happening at a more abstract level. The very atoms in your body are completely changed every few years. |
18:10.34 | Ghelae | drom: The point is, it's only "not the same" because there's a discontinuity. That doesn't necessarily make it different. |
18:10.47 | Ghelae | I should also point out the irony in that video, where they say that they aren't going to consider anything that can't be measured, but one point they make is about if, in a transporter, your subjective experience is transporter lights and noises followed by eternal nothingness... but subjective experience like that is unmeasurable! |
18:10.52 | Wormy_ | If you got physically destroyed and recreated, but with the information nearly perfectly transferred, I argue that the continity of consciousness won't be destroyed. |
18:10.57 | Imperios | Contacted you |
18:11.12 | AnonyLurk | I argue that it would. |
18:11.26 | AnonyLurk | If you were physically destroyed, and reconstructed ten years later, would the continuity of consciousness be destroyed? |
18:11.38 | AnonyLurk | There is a time gap between the moment of destruction and the moment of recreation. |
18:11.46 | Wormy_ | And actually some of the deepest, and vegetative states (which people have actually have woken up from oin rare occasion) see's nearly total losss of higher brain function. |
18:11.54 | Wormy_ | *deepest states of coma |
18:12.06 | AnonyLurk | So why would the length of that time gap make a difference as to whether or not there is a gap? |
18:12.30 | Wormy_ | I don't think the time gap matters |
18:12.50 | Ghelae | Technical definition of continuity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_equation In that case (of course you have to sort of imagine "consciousness" can be given a numerical quantity), continuity is violated for teleportation and complete unconsciousness. |
18:12.52 | Wormy_ | That's not part of my argument |
18:12.59 | AnonyLurk | So would it still be YOU if you went into a transporter, were deconstructed, and then reconstructed at a significantly later date? |
18:13.25 | AnonyLurk | Say, a century into the future? |
18:13.47 | AnonyLurk | To me that would imply that you're practically coming back from the dead, your consciousness hasn't existed to the rest of the universe for over a hundred years. |
18:13.51 | AnonyLurk | But what's your take on it? |
18:14.05 | Wormy_ | Yes, but what is the self in my argument is not a binary thing, it's a fuzzy boundary. It depends how faithfully infoemation was transferred. If it was perfect, then no matter how time had past, I think it would still be the same self. |
18:14.30 | Wormy_ | However, in the real world, information is *not* transferred so easily |
18:14.53 | AnonyLurk | Where would the self be during the intervening time? |
18:15.06 | Wormy_ | In the future |
18:15.25 | AnonyLurk | Relative to the rest of the universe. |
18:15.37 | Wormy_ | Think of this through a "Spacetime" view of things, and it makes slightly better sense :P |
18:16.02 | Wormy_ | Quite a lot og physicists picture time as discrete moments anyway |
18:16.04 | Imperios | Charles_Bot: ONe more thing: what do you think of the seals? |
18:16.05 | Wormy_ | *of |
18:16.35 | Charles_Bot | I like them! Not what I expected, but I'll definitely use them |
18:17.05 | Imperios | http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/f/f4/Lord_Protector_Seal.png/revision/latest?cb=20160307181651 I fixed the LP seal btw |
18:17.30 | AnonyLurk | I still don't think you're same on the other side of the teleporter. |
18:17.35 | AnonyLurk | *Transported. |
18:17.38 | AnonyLurk | **Transporter. |
18:17.39 | Wormy_ | Why not? |
18:17.49 | TekDroid | It tries too much to create an arbitrary life/death binary definition based on the notion of spatial and temporal continuity, itself arguably an arbitrary notion. |
18:18.07 | AnonyLurk | If you're asleep, or in a coma, or any sort of vegetative state your consciousness still exists, just in a different state. |
18:18.21 | AnonyLurk | But if you go through a transporter, there is a moment where your consciousness ceases to exist. |
18:18.24 | AnonyLurk | A break, as it were. |
18:18.33 | AnonyLurk | It gets destroyed, then it comes back into existence. |
18:18.37 | Wormy_ | Actually, I'm inclined to agree. I don't think you could copy information so easily, so the person recreated may be like you, or a part of you that *could be* in very different circumstances/ |
18:19.29 | Wormy_ | From what I've read about the deepest forms of coma, the mind goes truly unconscious. It is nothing like sleep. |
18:19.42 | AnonyLurk | The mind is still functioning on some level, though. |
18:19.48 | AnonyLurk | At the very least, the atoms are still all stuck together. |
18:20.09 | AnonyLurk | Else, the person would be brain dead and not in a coma. |
18:20.43 | Ghelae | I've been busy making dinner, but here's another comment: |
18:20.51 | Wormy_ | The atomscome and go, but consistency is retained from an informational point of view as far as I'm aware. Though I admit I haven't looked into whether our atoms are really entirely replaced. |
18:21.16 | Ghelae | what's happening is that you're assuming that, if the consciousness does not exist for a period of time, it must be destroyed. Its recreation must therefore be new. |
18:21.52 | AnonyLurk | Right. |
18:21.55 | AnonyLurk | That is what I'm assuming. |
18:22.12 | AnonyLurk | If the consciousness goes through the act of being destroyed, then it's gone. |
18:22.18 | Ghelae | I'll try to explain why that's implicitly assuming a sort of "conservation of consciousness". |
18:22.36 | Ghelae | The connection between this and the continuity equation is that continuity equations say that "the change in the amount of a substance within a volume is equal to the net amount flowing into or out of a volume, plus/minus the amount being created/destroyed". |
18:23.18 | Ghelae | What you're saying is that the amount of consciousness within a volume - where a person's brain was - has decreased, but there's been no "consciousness current" flowing out of that volume, so it must have been destroyed. |
18:23.40 | AnonyLurk | Right. |
18:23.45 | Ghelae | Essentially you're assuming that, like matter, consciousness cannot discontinuously teleport across time and space. |
18:24.41 | AnonyLurk | I'm assuming that it can not continue to exist after going through complete destruction and annihilation. |
18:25.03 | AnonyLurk | Once it's gone, it's gone, and can not continue to exist even if a complete replica can be created and then continue to exist. |
18:26.04 | drom | TekDroid Wormy_: http://turnoff.us/image/en/family-crisis.png |
18:26.09 | TekDroid | But then what makes a new entity - mentally identical in virtually every way - "different" from its predecessor? |
18:26.12 | Ghelae | So that raises the question of, why does destroying the matter count as a destruction of the consciousness. |
18:26.37 | Ghelae | If the consciousness is some additional substance produced by matter, sure, of course that makes sense. |
18:26.47 | Ghelae | But if the consciousness is just a pattern, then see Tek's question. |
18:27.32 | Ghelae | Erm, for a loose definition of "pattern" that I'm a bit too preoccupied to come up with a better word for. I'm sure you all get what I mean. |
18:28.19 | Wormy_ | I was trying to relate to a view which see's the self as a pattern in space and time. Obviously, it evolves deterministically in space and time to retain consistency. But that consistency would be arranged in a collection of moments, hence that's I'm more comfortable with the idea of teleportation. |
18:28.27 | drom | TekDroid Ghelae Wormy_ Technobliterator: When debugging: https://media.giphy.com/media/WM3HX2cZ3zTry/giphy.gif |
18:29.26 | Wormy_ | heh |
18:29.38 | Wormy_ | I find I fix one thing only to breeak another. |
18:29.50 | AnonyLurk | I made the mistake of using the word 'consciousness' to refer to 'brain'. |
18:29.53 | AnonyLurk | I consider them to be the same. |
18:30.05 | AnonyLurk | If the matter that composes the brain is destroyed, the consciousness is destroyed. |
18:30.23 | AnonyLurk | Mind, the transporter doesn't transport matter, it destroys matter then creates an exact replica of that matter somewhere else. |
18:30.34 | AnonyLurk | So since the matter in the brain was destroyed, the consciousness was too.l |
18:30.37 | AnonyLurk | *Too. |
18:30.41 | AnonyLurk | Therefore transporters kill you. |
18:30.46 | Wormy_ | I think the only difference really in our viewpoints, is that your "atoms of thought" are literal atoms, while mined is informational pattern. |
18:31.00 | Wormy_ | *atoms of information |
18:32.06 | AnonyLurk | That seems like an accurate assesment, Wormy_. |
18:32.51 | AnonyLurk | Since you see it as a pattern, rather than atoms, it doesn't matter that the transporter destroys the atoms. |
18:33.02 | Wormy_ | I think if the teleporter malfunctioned, and fails to recreate any pattern resembling the original consciousness, then yes, it would cease to be. |
18:33.07 | AnonyLurk | It destroys the pattern too, sure, but when the pattern comes back into existence on the other side it's still the same pattern. |
18:33.30 | AnonyLurk | Whereas the way I see it, since the consciousness lies not in the pattern but the atoms, and it's not the same atoms on the other side then it kills you. |
18:33.58 | Ghelaway | AnonyLurk: So you're associating consciousness with the atoms rather than the interactions between them? |
18:34.24 | Ghelaway | Rather than the interactions between large numbers of them* |
18:34.55 | AnonyLurk | I am associating consciousness with the continued and uninterrupted interaction between the atoms. |
18:35.06 | AnonyLurk | Er. |
18:35.07 | AnonyLurk | Hmm. |
18:35.25 | AnonyLurk | I am associating consciousness with the atoms, yes. |
18:35.30 | Ghelaway | "Continuous and uninterrupted" needs justification. |
18:35.50 | AnonyLurk | Justification or clarification? |
18:36.05 | AnonyLurk | What do you mean by justification? |
18:36.06 | Ghelaway | Well, I mean, you're perfectly free to believe what you want. But it sounds like an assumption to me. |
18:36.54 | TekDroid | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/NuPmcagc |
18:37.03 | TekDroid | Erm... that was odd |
18:38.16 | TekDroid | But that link was suposed to be a message at Wormy_ |
18:38.23 | TekDroid | :P |
18:38.25 | Wormy_ | Ghelaway: Are we heading to the old argument of the continuum vs. the discrete? |
18:38.58 | Wormy_ | I agree TekDroid |
18:39.02 | AnonyLurk | What do you mean by justification, though. I don't understand what you mean by that sentence. |
18:41.06 | Wormy_ | The reason why I raise the continuus vs. discrete models of reality, is because the answer to whether interactions are uninterutpted I feel rests on that issue. Classical physics is generally continuus, while quantum mechanics is discrete *and* continnum in a weird sense |
18:41.50 | Ghel | I mean, why do you think the interactions should be continuous and uninterrupted? The laws of physics don't care about interruptions. Set the end state of one system as the initial condition of another and that's no different, as far as that system as concerned, to resetting your clock to time = 0. |
18:42.20 | Ghel | Wormy_: I don't think this should depend on whether or not the universe is continuous. |
18:42.49 | Ghel | Continuity equations, with a little modification, are still perfectly compatible with discrete spacetimes. |
18:43.51 | Wormy_ | No, but if you think of things having a continuity in time, as a disrete collection of moments, then asking where mind goes between physical state would force one to conclude that mind is new every moment |
18:44.11 | Wormy_ | From a reductionist standpoint |
18:44.45 | Ghel | Not really. You could just redefine "continuity" to requiring no full discrete moments occuring between worldline moments. |
18:49.32 | Ghel | I realise I might not have explained the relationship to continuity earlier, although it probably doesn't directly impact the discussion if Anony and I were using different definitions of consciousness at the time. |
18:50.12 | Ghel | The point is, if the amount of consciousness changes in a given volume of space, the possibilities given by the continuity equation are either a) current flowed in/out of the volume, or b) there was a source/sink (it was created or destroyed). |
18:51.26 | Ghel | But without assuming continuity, option c), teleportation occurred, is also a possibility. At which point there's no reason to assume that, if there's no current, option b) is what occurred. |
18:52.28 | Ghel | And defining consciousness so that b) is definitely what occurs is simply begging the question. It's not a physically meaningful definition. |
18:52.36 | Ghel | Now time to do washing up. |

22:51.41 | AndroImp | Hachiman: I can imagine pre-Imperial humans having a Dark Age-like culture |
22:51.45 | AndroImp | Dark Ages even |
22:52.04 | AndroImp | You know, warbands, tiny forts, monasteries, Beowulf |
22:52.10 | Hachiman | Yeah |
22:52.26 | Hachiman | That makes a fair amount of sense |
22:53.08 | Hachiman | I can imagine there are various Mannazian sub-cultures based on geography and whatnot |
22:53.57 | AndroImp | Like actual Germany hur |
22:54.12 | AndroImp | Actually there ought to be more diversity to Mannazia culture-wise |
22:54.30 | AndroImp | Like not only Germanic stuff |
22:54.36 | Hachiman | Well of course |
22:55.01 | Hachiman | Viking, Germanic, possibly Frankish, Anglo-Saxon |
22:57.17 | AndroImp | ...You do realize these are all Germanic hur |
22:57.29 | AndroImp | But yeah I see your point |
22:57.43 | Hachiman | Fuck hur |
22:57.49 | Hachiman | What would you suggest? |
22:59.23 | AndroImp | Well we did bring up the picts |
22:59.26 | AndroImp | *Picts |
22:59.33 | AndroImp | So Celtic influences |
22:59.48 | Hachiman | Ah yeah, the Celts of course |
22:59.58 | Hachiman | Could have borrowed from the Aos'marans or vice vera |
22:59.59 | Hachiman | versa |
23:00.07 | AndroImp | drom Hachiman: http://cs6.pikabu.ru/images/big_size_comm/2014-04_3/13973567293168.png Holy shut that is like the best coat of arms ever |
23:00.20 | Hachiman | What the fuck hur |
23:02.19 | AndroImp | Hachiman: http://www.dal.by/news/119/28-04-14-21/ |
23:03.10 | Hachiman | They must really hate that guy |
23:03.39 | AndroImp | Not sure who that is |
23:03.51 | AndroImp | This hairstyle is either Turkish or Ukrainian |
23:04.57 | Wormy__ | It could not be more explicit |
23:05.34 | DrodoEmpire | AndroImp: Reminds me of a Cossack hairstyle, I think |
23:06.02 | DrodoEmpire | If the coat of arms is from Eastern Europe (and that sabre makes me think it is), then perhaps that's the explanation? |
23:06.09 | AndroImp | DrodoEmpire: That looks like what Zaporozhian Cozzacks wesr |
23:06.16 | AndroImp | Cossacks wear |
23:06.27 | AndroImp | But why would everyone hate them so much hur |
23:06.34 | AndroImp | Turks sure but why Ukrainians |
23:06.39 | DrodoEmpire | I mean severed heads appear reasonably often on Coat-of-Arms; In western Europe there is the "Moor's Head" I beliebe |
23:06.40 | DrodoEmpire | *eve |
23:06.47 | DrodoEmpire | Which is on the Sardinian coat of arms |
23:06.51 | DrodoEmpire | Sardinian? |
23:06.56 | DrodoEmpire | Corsican |
23:07.00 | DrodoEmpire | That's it |
23:08.09 | DrodoEmpire | AndroImp: Well the Cossacks as an ethnic group only *really* emerged in the later middle ages. New ethnic groups arriving or emerging like that tend to stir up trouble at least at first |
23:08.33 | DrodoEmpire | I recall the Russian monarchs and the Cossacks had a somewhat-uneasy relationship at times |
23:08.39 | Hachiman | Excuse my ignorance but I thought the Cossacks were Russian warriors? |
23:08.45 | DrodoEmpire | Sorta... |
23:08.53 | DrodoEmpire | They're a whole ethnic group really |
23:08.59 | DrodoEmpire | They fought under the Russians often |
23:09.07 | DrodoEmpire | BUt they were distinct from the Russian population |
23:09.25 | *** join/#sporewiki Hellrock (43b553e0@gateway/web/freenode/ip.67.181.83.224) |
23:09.38 | Wormy__ | Search by Google indicates they are from Hungary |
23:09.40 | DrodoEmpire | This is me and my admittedly-limited knowledge of them, but as far as I know that's it |
23:09.49 | AndroImp | Hachiman: Cossacks are both Russian and Ukrainian |
23:09.51 | Wormy__ | https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HUN_Hajd%C3%BAn%C3%A1n%C3%A1s.C%C3%ADmer.svg |
23:10.21 | AndroImp | Though Russian and Ukrainian Cossacks were different, but then again the line between Russians and Ukrainians was thin back then |
23:11.03 | AndroImp | Ukraine had the Zaporizhian Cossacks, who were river pirates/raiders who spent most of their life fighting Turks |
23:11.17 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:11.21 | AndroImp | They had a fairly strong democratic system strangely enougg |
23:11.24 | AndroImp | *enough |
23:11.42 | AndroImp | Which is why Russians hated them but had to rely on them for border defense |
23:12.00 | Hachiman | For the longest time I thought Cossacks were like the Russian answer to Samurai or something |
23:12.07 | AndroImp | Russian Cossacks were colonists, they settled the Siberian frontier |
23:12.08 | Hachiman | I know very little about Russia hur |
23:12.16 | AndroImp | Sort of like ehhh |
23:12.22 | Wormy__ | I think the head may represent a Tatar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:22._Kozak_z_golovoju_tatarina.jpg |
23:12.24 | AndroImp | Russian cowboys/settlers |
23:12.45 | AndroImp | Yeah cowboys is a good comparison |
23:13.54 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy__: Possibly. Aren't Tatars the descendents of Mongol colonists in around the Russian/Ukrainian area? |
23:13.56 | DrodoEmpire | I'm not sure |
23:14.06 | Wormy__ | I think they might |
23:14.16 | Hachiman | Nobody liked Tatars it semes |
23:14.17 | Hachiman | seems |
23:14.20 | DrodoEmpire | Well |
23:14.22 | AndroImp | DrodoEmpire: Sort of |
23:14.24 | DrodoEmpire | Nobody liked Mongols |
23:14.35 | Hachiman | True |
23:14.35 | Wormy__ | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatars |
23:14.51 | Wormy__ | Subsumed into the Mongol Empire very early on |
23:14.57 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
23:14.57 | AndroImp | They were local Turkic peoples, mostly those of the Volgan Bulgaria, who were attacked and absorbed by Mpngols |
23:14.59 | AndroImp | *Mo |
23:15.00 | DrodoEmpire | A Turkic people |
23:15.05 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:15.05 | AndroImp | Yeah they are Turkic |
23:15.09 | DrodoEmpire | Interesting stuff |
23:15.11 | AndroImp | They do not look Mongol |
23:15.18 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:15.26 | AndroImp | And we actually like Tatars sort of |
23:15.34 | AndroImp | They are like the best Muslims ever |
23:15.47 | AndroImp | Almost impossible to explode |
23:15.50 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
23:16.25 | DrodoEmpire | I understand the Mongols had a policy of tolerating local religions, even converting to the local faith |
23:16.34 | AndroImp | Tatars was actually somewhat of an umbrella term but nowadays it is only used for Crimea Tatars and the Kazan Tatars |
23:16.40 | DrodoEmpire | Would it be then that the Tatars inherited that trait? |
23:16.45 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:17.01 | AndroImp | DrodoEmpire: Yeah sort of |
23:17.09 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:17.30 | AndroImp | Tatars were actually a pretty civilized people before the Mongols attacjed |
23:17.38 | AndroImp | More civilized than Russians actually |
23:17.42 | AndroImp | I think |
23:17.45 | AndroImp | Or as civilized |
23:18.00 | DrodoEmpire | Well how do you mean by civilized? More wealthy and refined generally speaking? |
23:18.21 | AndroImp | Yeah pretty much |
23:18.26 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:18.32 | AndroImp | Hachiman: http://indragop.org.ua/na_holovnu/kozak.jpg Zaporizhian Cossack |
23:19.01 | Hachiman | Badass hur |
23:19.18 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah Cossacks are pretty kickass |
23:19.20 | AndroImp | YOU DARE SAY GOOD THINGS ABOUT UKRAINE |
23:19.30 | Wormy__ | If there are Amerikantsy in Russia, I wonder how many English live there |
23:19.30 | AndroImp | YOU THREATEN RUSSIAN MINORITIES |
23:19.34 | AndroImp | INVAAAAADE |
23:19.35 | DrodoEmpire | Actually one minute |
23:19.51 | AndroImp | http://cyrillitsa.ru/uploads/posts/2012-07/1341918715_50.jpg And that is a Russian Cossacks |
23:20.07 | Wormy__ | Enough Americans to be considered an ethnic group |
23:20.27 | DrodoEmpire | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reply_of_the_Zaporozhian_Cossacks - In case you needed any more confirmation that the Cossacks are badass |
23:20.27 | Hachiman | I prefer the Zaporizhian hur |

23:20.53 | Wormy__ | There you have it |
23:21.01 | AndroImp | DrodoEmpire: Oh god does this page have the actual text of the message |
23:21.08 | DrodoEmpire | They told the *Sultan of the Ottoman Empire* to "fuck (their) mother" |
23:21.09 | DrodoEmpire | Yes. |
23:21.19 | DrodoEmpire | Translated, but yes |
23:21.38 | Hachiman | "O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother." |

23:22.01 | Monet | Hello |
23:22.23 | Wormy__ | hi and hi |
23:22.24 | DrodoEmpire | Keep in mind at this point the Ottoman Empire was one of, if not *the most* powerful country at the time |
23:22.24 | Hachiman | > and the crick in our dick |
23:22.27 | Hachiman | Holy fuck Cossacks |
23:22.36 | AndroImp | It actually sounds even better in Russian or Ukrainian |
23:22.41 | Hachiman | This is why I prefer the Zaporizhian hur |
23:23.19 | AndroImp | I actually thought of making Zaporozhian Cossacks-ish guys for the Empire, except naval |
23:23.40 | Hachiman | Why not just make an actual Fantasy Russia for Fantasyverse |
23:24.04 | Hachiman | Fantasy Vostroyan Firstborn yeh |
23:24.40 | AndroImp | Saphronia was originally intended to be sort of Slavic but then I decided not to |
23:24.47 | AndroImp | It has a few Russian elements tho |
23:25.00 | AndroImp | It is like Russia-Sweden-Finland |
23:25.05 | AndroImp | -Poland |
23:25.11 | Hachiman | But Saphronia is not badass hur |
23:25.20 | Monet | One of the things about Russia IIRC is it was quite expansive. |
23:27.25 | Monet | SO I guess it depends on what period of Russian history. |
23:27.43 | Hachiman | Saphronia is not badass because it is ruled by Slavs |
23:27.50 | Hachiman | And Slavs are inexperienced at ruling things |
23:27.55 | DrodoEmpire | thatsracist.gif |
23:28.41 | AndroImp | Do you see Slavs here tho |
23:28.48 | AndroImp | Luxor is not here |
23:28.54 | AndroImp | Neither is that 9988 fella |
23:29.57 | Monet | How notable was the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth? |
23:30.16 | Hachiman | inb4 the Mannazians want to conquer and rule Saphronia and history repeats itself with Not!Russia being ruled by non-Not!Russian rulers |
23:30.49 | Monet | That is far from exclusive to RUssia lol. |
23:31.49 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: Rather significant in its heyday |
23:32.02 | DrodoEmpire | THey fielded the finest cavalry in the world afterall |
23:32.31 | Monet | Very true |
23:32.48 | Monet | I was curious how prominent a power they were beyond the fame of the Winged Hussars. |
23:33.31 | Monet | Though I recall cities like Prague and Warsaw have some beautiful 18th century architecture. |
23:34.02 | Xho | http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/e/e0/ZhulultuHeadPainted.png/revision/latest?cb=20160307233316 Well there wego |
23:34.56 | Monet | Xho: Those green eyes are an excellent touch. |
23:35.01 | Wormy__ | indeed |
23:35.04 | Hachiman | That is very good |
23:35.06 | Hachiman | Pretty nice |
23:35.53 | Wormy__ | very ominous |
23:36.17 | Xho | Just so anyone's curious, 2.78 million polygons now |
23:38.11 | Monet | I guess that's for the mottled skin. |
23:38.15 | Wormy__ | Darwin Award? http://i.imgur.com/wXYqzig.gif |
23:38.52 | Monet | Wormy__: Remind me does one have to be dead to accept the award? |
23:38.52 | Xho | Yeah 1.29 million of it is the head |
23:39.00 | Xho | The remainder are the eyes |
23:39.05 | Wormy__ | I believe so |
23:39.41 | Wormy__ | lets hope those ropes held |
23:39.54 | Monet | Wait 1,500,000 polys for the eyes? |
23:40.45 | Wormy__ | Xho, drom http://i.imgur.com/BZvmrBO.gif |
23:40.59 | Xho | Monet: Yeah I thought 'bugger it' |
23:41.12 | Monet | I pity your hard drive. |

23:46.09 | Xho | It's weird but always like looking at the WIP more than the finished product |
