| 00:00.04 | Technobliterator | when this whole election is over, I wonder if I can make a Loron History out of it |
| 00:00.16 | Monet | Yeah but those who do it the terrorist is either fully reformed, or the person is more interested in power. |
| 00:00.42 | Technobliterator | nope |
| 00:00.53 | Technobliterator | the US elected a terrorist very recently, known as George W. Bush |
| 00:01.20 | OluapPlayer | God no |
| 00:01.33 | Monet | Okay now we're veering into stupid. |
| 00:01.46 | Technobliterator | >invading a country illegally for oil isn't terrorism |
| 00:01.47 | Technobliterator | k |
| 00:01.56 | OluapPlayer | Take it to offtopic |
| 00:02.20 | Cyrannian | Adele is more interested in power rather than a particular set of ideals, so I suppose she's not really a terrorist http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Adelheidis#Criminal |
| 00:02.42 | OluapPlayer | I called her a terrorist because she tried to usurp the Republic once |
| 00:02.43 | Monet | Yeah I'm not keen on this coversation's sudden shift in direction. |
| 00:02.49 | OluapPlayer | Not just because she's obviously power-hungry |
| 00:03.16 | Cyrannian | I wonder if the Crispy plot is still canon with Hachi |
| 00:04.18 | OluapPlayer | Also needs more Thaurlathrón being menacing to peple |
| 00:04.20 | OluapPlayer | people even |
| 00:05.03 | Cyrannian | needs Vanikaimar paeg too |
| 00:05.25 | OluapPlayer | Upload his png dingus |
| 00:06.25 | Cyrannian | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:VanikaimarPNG.png - dere |
| 00:07.01 | OluapPlayer | i'll write it later |
| 00:07.19 | Cyrannian | nag nag nag |
| 00:07.23 | OluapPlayer | Also |
| 00:07.32 | OluapPlayer | >page is a collection of short stories >Tales of |
| 00:07.34 | OluapPlayer | did u copy me |
| 00:07.58 | Monet | Tybusen tried doing this as well, before Tales I think. |
| 00:08.27 | Technobliterator | I need a quote at the top of Volzara's page |
| 00:08.34 | Cyrannian | I dun copied STO http://sto.gamepedia.com/Tales_of_the_War |
| 00:08.53 | OluapPlayer | oh |
| 00:09.20 | OluapPlayer | I got a page of short stories called Tales of Champions, hence why I was wondering |
| 00:09.46 | Monet | Actually this isn't too surprising |
| 00:10.54 | Monet | The bulk of science fiction has historically been short story collections collected and published |
| 00:14.03 | Monet | I am reminded a little of EBE Chronicles. |
| 00:14.16 | Monet | EVE* |
| 00:15.07 | Cyrannian | I was thinking of getting back into EVE now that my computer is up to scratch |
| 00:15.36 | Technobliterator | Is it fair to call Volzara the leader of the good guy Essentials? |
| 00:15.55 | Monet | Cyrannian: What stopped you last time? |
| 00:16.04 | OluapPlayer | She's not the only good Essential god so no |
| 00:16.23 | Cyrannian | Very slow speeds IIRC, I could barely make it out of character creator |
| 00:16.42 | Cyrannian | Though now I can run Inquisition on high graphics and it's pretty new, so it should be fine now |
| 00:16.57 | Monet | You did mention EVE felt slow. At the time I thought you were talking about the pace of the game |
| 00:17.15 | DrodoEmpire | test |
| 00:17.17 | DrodoEmpire | Alright back |
| 00:17.32 | Technobliterator | alright |
| 00:17.33 | Technobliterator | hm |
| 00:17.42 | Technobliterator | She's the only one who's sympathetic to mortals, right? |
| 00:17.55 | OluapPlayer | No, Sonhadromerith also is |
| 00:18.04 | Technobliterator | ah |
| 00:18.46 | Cyrannian | Monet: hur, I did enjoy the game itself (or at least my brief experience with it) |
| 00:20.36 | Monet | At least it's a game where pew-pew lazor smashy is good money |
| 00:21.50 | Cyrannian | I think I could also run GTA V now, so I'll keep on eye out for Steam sales |
| 00:22.23 | Technobliterator | uh |
| 00:22.41 | Technobliterator | are the Xhodocto's allies now the Dominion? |
| 00:23.37 | Monet | Pretty-much iirc. |
| 00:24.17 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
| 00:24.26 | OluapPlayer | Less allies and more servants |
| 00:25.36 | Technobliterator | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Vyro%27Nazdea so, this intro works then |
| 00:26.28 | Monet | Cyrannian: As before I'm willing to help if you need advice. |
| 00:26.38 | Technobliterator | ah, reminds me |
| 00:26.42 | Technobliterator | RDR2 hype |
| 00:26.42 | Technobliterator | :o |
| 00:26.51 | OluapPlayer | no pc no buy |
| 00:27.16 | Technobliterator | I imagine they will just release it a year later |
| 00:27.45 | OluapPlayer | because fuck PC costumers |
| 00:28.22 | Technobliterator | I forget if I revealed Volzara's past in the original war much |
| 00:28.24 | Monet | I don't think the first RDR was on the PC either. |
| 00:28.30 | OluapPlayer | It wasn't |
| 00:28.43 | Cyrannian | Monet: If I get back into it, I'll let you know |
| 00:29.06 | OluapPlayer | I don't get Rockstar's reluctance to make proper PC ports after GTA San Andreas came out. RDR had no PC version, GTA IV's PC port is ridden with DRM, GTA V's PC release was nearly two whole years after consoles |
| 00:29.45 | Technobliterator | Well, San Andreas on PC did hurt the company a lot |
| 00:29.55 | OluapPlayer | How so? |
| 00:30.41 | Monet | Tech might know more than me but they did have to update a PS2 game to recognise modern hardware. |
| 00:30.48 | Monet | modern PC hardware* |
| 00:30.54 | Technobliterator | the mod |
| 00:31.02 | Technobliterator | the one that gave them a lot of legal troubles |
| 00:31.02 | Cyrannian | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REfr4-PQUlE - ooh new Force Awakens deleted scene |
| 00:31.11 | OluapPlayer | That was not the PC port's fault |
| 00:31.17 | OluapPlayer | Hot Coffee was Rockstar-made content |
| 00:31.29 | Monet | We're getting deleted scenes before the film is even out? |
| 00:31.33 | OluapPlayer | The PC port just helped people discover it |
| 00:31.51 | Technobliterator | yeah, but it was left in because they rushed to release it |
| 00:32.03 | Technobliterator | if they'd had more time, they might have been able to cut it from the PC port |
| 00:32.10 | Technobliterator | is I guess their thought process? I don't know |
| 00:32.26 | OluapPlayer | The content was also in the console releases |
| 00:32.33 | Monet | FOr the console version they could excuse it since you needed to hack the PS2 to get it |
| 00:32.35 | OluapPlayer | People didn't find it because it's not as easy to datamine a console game |
| 00:32.46 | OluapPlayer | At least not at the time |
| 00:33.09 | Monet | So the story of a sex minigame in GTA:SA was less well-known |
| 00:33.18 | Cyrannian | nightie night |
| 00:33.22 | OluapPlayer | Bye |
| 00:33.28 | Technobliterator | I have a feeling they might just have been mad about the PC port and the modders |
| 00:33.54 | Technobliterator | although one of the modders even said on their site "no, you cannot access this in the game normally" and whatever and Rockstar still through them under a bus |
| 00:34.00 | OluapPlayer | They'd have to be extremely petty to be mad at the playerbase for their own mistake |
| 00:34.46 | Monet | TBF, mass media didn't care that one required a hack and a mod to see it. |
| 00:34.49 | Technobliterator | Mhm |
| 00:35.00 | Technobliterator | But they still through said playerbase under a bus |
| 00:35.17 | Monet | Probably to avoid a lawsuit they couldn't win. |
| 00:35.51 | Monet | Legal battles - they can be nightmares to endure. |
| 00:36.54 | Monet | Some companies would rather cave in to public outcry than endure a months-long legal or PR battle. |
| 00:37.08 | Monet | Some or quite a few ,cant' quite remember the quantity |
| 00:37.26 | Technobliterator | It's still a dick move, honestly |
| 00:37.53 | OluapPlayer | Regardless, I want to try RDR2 out, but like I said, no pc no buy |
| 00:38.29 | OluapPlayer | I'm very pessimistic over it happening. I'd prefer to be pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed |
| 00:39.30 | Monet | Bad news is what sells. Sadly. |
| 00:40.03 | Technobliterator | Rockstar have a very good track record though |
| 00:40.11 | Technobliterator | Unlike Valve, they continued to actually make games |
| 00:40.11 | Technobliterator | : | |
| 00:40.17 | DrodoEmpire | ayy |
| 00:40.42 | OluapPlayer | Sure their games are good, but they don't treat PC like they used to |
| 00:40.50 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah Valve's a veritable hermit kingdom, just sorta sits there and gets money and says nothing |
| 00:41.08 | Monet | I thought R* were most comfortable on console? |
| 00:42.04 | OluapPlayer | I don't know about that but Vice City and San Andreas were excellent PC games |
| 00:42.31 | DrodoEmpire | GTAV works and plays great on PC I find |
| 00:42.35 | Technobliterator | I never heard anyone had a problem with GTAV? |
| 00:42.48 | DrodoEmpire | I did, but that was because my computer shouldn;t be running i |
| 00:42.49 | DrodoEmpire | *it |
| 00:43.11 | Monet | Most people complain about hackers on GTA online. |
| 00:43.30 | DrodoEmpire | True, though that's not really a problem with like optimisation or bugs |
| 00:43.34 | DrodoEmpire | More a community problem |
| 00:44.09 | OluapPlayer | GTA V PC's problem was coming out 2 years after consoles |
| 00:44.11 | Technobliterator | bleh |
| 00:44.11 | Monet | A lot of Steam reviews downrated it but then again community environment is something peopel rate o nSteam reviews. |
| 00:44.17 | Technobliterator | I need to rewrite Volzara's page tomorrow |
| 00:44.34 | Monet | OluapPlayer: To be expected when you're remaking the game to work in 4K. |
| 00:44.56 | Monet | Also high-res textures and accompanying bugfixes. |
| 00:45.02 | Technobliterator | oh, I bet RDR2 will release in 4K |
| 00:45.11 | Technobliterator | despite 4K being an honestly meaningless selling point |
| 00:45.46 | Monet | I completely forgive Rockstar for taking their time with the PC port. |
| 00:45.58 | Monet | Because it is a beautiful port. |
| 00:47.42 | Monet | I'm slightly turned off by gaming news because oh bloody hell do people online complain. |
| 00:49.27 | Monet | 2K made a Facebook post showing off a performance of Baba Yetu in London and there were people complaining in the comments of 2K's troubled release of Mafia III |
| 00:50.21 | Monet | Even though the post was about a different game, non gameplay related and completely unrelated to Hanger 13's design choices. |
| 01:23.46 | DrodoEmpire | http://i.imgur.com/d1cK6k2.jpg |

| 12:11.42 | drom | I asked a question at a Discord server about a TTRPG game about hosting a game with user-homebrew races. The excuses using the races being "crused by a god/wizard/witch/supernatural entity" |

| 12:15.30 | drom | They told me that they'd play it. But apparently no one would like to GM it. |

| 12:20.56 | Technobliterator | I would argue Slack is better than Discord, personally |
| 12:31.35 | drom | Anyway |
| 12:31.41 | drom | I'm writing a report for a project |
| 12:32.04 | drom | Just using a template to fill in the contents. |
| 12:32.09 | drom | "References" |
| 12:32.19 | drom | ... I used no references for my project. |
| 12:33.12 | Ghel | If you weren't supposed to use references, just remove the references section. If you were supposed to use references, you did something wrong somewhere. |
| 12:33.36 | Ghel | And by "you did something wrong", I mean you didn't use references. |
| 12:35.48 | drom | It is a project. Not a kind of exam project. |
| 12:36.40 | drom | Basically the only requirement was "Build a system that contains an Arduino device, and it must have hardware." |
| 12:36.43 | Wormy_ | Always reference if it has a literature review or analysis, or if its one of your projects you could always have a bibliography |
| 12:36.58 | drom | Then we've to write a report about it. |

| 12:42.49 | Wormy_ | Nope, but it looks like a finished product I guess :P |
| 12:47.47 | drom_ | It is a bit slower than with the old computer. |
| 12:48.28 | drom_ | To elaborate a little more, I had this Nikko RC-rover standing on my shelf, the battery missing, the controller kaputt and it refusing to move at all. |
| 12:49.06 | drom_ | I thought, "what if I "repair" it by placing an Arduino on it and rewire everything to it?" |
| 12:49.11 | drom_ | It wasn't so hard |
| 12:49.45 | drom_ | But due to the postal service being slow and garbage, I had to wait two weeks for my items to arrive. So I could finally work on it, that was last week. |
| 12:49.52 | drom_ | And the report is due this Friday |
| 12:50.29 | drom_ | Now I have a new battery to it, it is now faster, but still slower than its older self. |
| 12:50.36 | drom_ | But hey, it works. Give or take. |
| 12:50.55 | drom_ | This report is my concern |
| 12:51.29 | drom_ | Then I've another concern: math finals for this Monday coming in five days. |

| 13:48.44 | drom_ | I am aware that Paradox is Swedish |

| 15:57.12 | Tek0516 | Hello |
| 16:00.47 | Monet | Tek0516: The last bit is most chilling |
| 16:02.06 | Monet | What I've come to realise about "MAGA" is this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CTT5JuRW4AA3xTq.jpg |
| 16:02.13 | Monet | Obama already did it. |

| 16:15.38 | Monet | hi |
| 16:18.21 | OluapPlayer | Monet: I found a helmet similar to what your character uses, but not only does it contrast with everything else in color, it makes my beard disappear |
| 16:18.29 | OluapPlayer | I look less like a dwarf and more like an actual midget |
| 16:20.36 | Monet | Ahh Outlands clown armour, love it. |
| 16:21.44 | OluapPlayer | Oh yeah I'm definitely clownsuiting atm |
| 16:22.03 | OluapPlayer | Green helmet, gray armor, blue cape, red gloves, yellow shoes |
| 16:22.37 | Monet | Put horns in your shoes and you can go to children's parties. |
| 16:23.39 | OluapPlayer | Dwarf has no gold so he's forced to play clown in children's parties for money |
| 16:24.05 | OluapPlayer | I've also gotten to Shattrath City. The naaru are weird |
| 16:24.19 | Monet | You could devise a act of "pull my beard" |
| 16:24.26 | Monet | Weird how? |
| 16:24.43 | OluapPlayer | Well they look like giant floating runes |
| 16:24.55 | OluapPlayer | I don't quite get what they're supposed to be |
| 16:25.48 | Monet | I long figured that's an attempt to present themselves in a form that's comforting |
| 16:26.06 | Monet | They are the Holy Light made manifest. |
| 16:26.33 | OluapPlayer | So they're angels of a sort |
| 16:28.04 | Monet | Indeed they are. |
| 16:28.14 | *** join/#sporewiki Charles_Murray (c0f6ea7f@gateway/web/freenode/ip.192.246.234.127) |
| 16:28.35 | Monet | Personally I imagined them as crystal formations rather than runes. |
| 16:28.52 | OluapPlayer | Right, that makes it easier to understand |
| 16:29.07 | OluapPlayer | also the game is making me choose between two factions and I'm not sure what to pick |
| 16:29.23 | Monet | Aldor and Scryers? |
| 16:29.30 | OluapPlayer | Yeah |
| 16:29.58 | OluapPlayer | Is there any major benefit in choosing one over the other? |
| 16:30.51 | Monet | I think it's more of a principle choice. |
| 16:33.47 | OluapPlayer | Right |
| 16:34.09 | OluapPlayer | I might go for the Scryers then. I like how they turned away from Kael'thas |
| 16:34.44 | OluapPlayer | Speaking of Kael'thas, a translucent version of him showed up in front of the naaru and he started yelling over how he can't be stopped |
| 16:35.10 | Monet | Yeah he went crazy in Outland, sided with Illidan Stormrage. |
| 16:35.27 | OluapPlayer | Sided with Kil'jaeden you mean |
| 16:36.54 | Monet | Iniitally Illidan, then he got really addicted to fel magic. |
| 16:37.25 | OluapPlayer | I played TFT u kno |
| 16:37.39 | Monet | Sorry, sorry. |
| 16:37.44 | drom_ | Tek0516: Yeah, the minor addition serve as compensation for being minor power. |
| 16:38.45 | OluapPlayer | This all being said, before I reached the city, I passed by Nagrand |
| 16:38.53 | OluapPlayer | That zone looks REALLY pretty |
| 16:39.38 | Monet | It survived best from Draenor's shattering. |
| 16:43.16 | Monet | No one back in SIlvermoon was initially aware that Kael'thas had gone from looking for a non-addicting alternative to practically turning blood elves into demons. |
| 16:44.39 | OluapPlayer | none of this would've happened if we had just listened to garithos |
| 16:47.55 | Monet | The guy was a dick though. |
| 16:49.38 | OluapPlayer | I kid, I was glad when he died hur |
| 16:50.49 | Monet | Yeah who did he think he was ordering a prince around like one of his knights. |
| 16:51.44 | OluapPlayer | First tried to order a prince, then tried to order an undead elf and her vampire demon lieutenant |
| 16:52.05 | Technobliterator | oh my god this is amazing |
| 16:52.14 | Technobliterator | Eminem made a Trump diss track and it's even better than his Bush diss track |
| 16:52.26 | OluapPlayer | Speaking of which, whatever happened to Varimathras? |
| 16:52.49 | Monet | He betrayed Sylvanas during the battle of the Wrathgate. |
| 16:53.07 | Monet | While she was on campaign in Northrend he took over Undercity. |
| 16:53.21 | OluapPlayer | Sneaky breeki |
| 16:53.29 | Monet | Never trust a dreadlord. |
| 16:54.29 | Monet | Not being racist, we learn in the battle his ultimate loyalties were always to the Legion. |
| 16:54.57 | OluapPlayer | You're allowed to be racist to dreadlords since they're demons and demons are all evil |
| 16:55.29 | OluapPlayer | Sylvanas was foolish to have kept him around as long as she did |
| 16:57.38 | Monet | Good point. |
| 16:58.50 | Monet | Though I was hesitant as we learn from BC that most demons are aliens corrupted by the magic of the Burning Legion. |
| 16:59.07 | Wormy_ | I have a feeling the lander was lost http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2016/10/19/exomars-space-probe-schiaparelli-landing-mars-surface-live/ |
| 16:59.26 | Monet | Give them enough time and Kael's Felblood Elves might have became a new species of demon. |
| 17:01.14 | OluapPlayer | It took me some time to grasp the idea that the eredar and the draenei share the same ancestors |
| 17:04.33 | Monet | I wonder how many other beings share such a divide. |
| 17:06.36 | Monet | WOrmy_: I love how the Telegraph provide tension for a situation that, from the outside, looks like a dozen people sitting patiently at a computer. |
| 17:08.27 | Wormy_ | They;re feeling it |
| 17:08.37 | NeonPanda | Hellsing Abridged |
| 17:08.43 | NeonPanda | god damn I'm glad I started watching this again |
| 17:10.12 | Wormy_ | I'll be sad if the Rover is lost, ExoMars has had my attention for a long time. I once attended a talk at Uni of Leicester and learned they developed a chip that detects organic molecules and glows, although I think it got trimmed off the design in the end |
| 17:12.16 | Wormy_ | I worry about how we're going to land people on Mars, I think there's a high chance they'll crash, Mars has a much higher gravity than the Moon yet a much thinner atmosphere to break entry |
| 17:12.47 | Wormy_ | *thinner atmosphere than Earth |
| 17:14.03 | Technobliterator | I'm most hyped for the things that we will develop while working on landing on Mars |
| 17:14.19 | Technobliterator | I imagine we'll get the next major breakthrough in AI, for one |
| 17:15.31 | dino82_ | goin on legion for a while, might take a while to respond |
| 17:16.53 | Wormy_ | Happening already, because of the signal delay and limited opportunities for destinations on the surface, there has been research in giving the probe some autonomy in recognising patterns and carrying out observations |
| 17:17.04 | Wormy_ | *giving the rovers |
| 17:17.59 | Wormy_ | You know, as they move from A to B |
| 17:19.37 | Wormy_ | I recall that lecturer saying how geologists were collaborating with computer scientists to create a library of lithological data |
| 17:19.53 | Wormy_ | the rover can recognise |
| 17:27.22 | Wormy_ | drom_, Tek0516: I take it that you've had experience in making algorithms like the binary search (divide and conquer?) |

| 17:39.57 | Monet | Lol |
| 17:40.05 | Monet | Pretty useful lesson |
| 17:49.23 | Monet | I've had a thought. |
| 17:50.24 | Technobliterator | Needs Xho for Borealis War |
| 17:50.26 | Monet | I might ditch portraying Draconis civilians as "suits for men and dresses for women" |
| 17:51.03 | Monet | Both genders enjoy robes for one |
| 17:54.52 | Monet | I still remember Oluap thinking Arsac was a man and Irskaad thinking Uriel was a woman. |
| 17:55.56 | Monet | And then there's Erissere referring to Uriel's braids as "girly locks" - so maybe I could run with it |

| 18:10.20 | drom_ | Wormy_: Not much, but I keep experimenting with little finicky things |
| 18:10.30 | drom_ | Like regular expressions and LINQ |
| 18:11.01 | Wormy_ | Currently making a game where the computer guesses your number |
| 18:11.20 | Wormy_ | but it is incredibly finicky |

| 18:32.24 | Technobliterator | No Borealis War? |

| 18:41.21 | Wormy_ | 3 |
| 18:41.46 | ImpyDroid | Python is weird |
| 18:42.00 | Technobliterator | Python is easy |
| 18:42.06 | Wormy_ | still better than JavaScript hur |
| 18:42.17 | ImpyDroid | Yeah it is easy but after other programming languages it feels so alien |
| 18:42.27 | ImpyDroid | Everything is familiar except it isn't |
| 18:42.33 | Technobliterator | It's way more basic than other languages |
| 18:42.56 | ImpyDroid | Yeah it took me a while to get used to the lack of... what's their name |
| 18:43.01 | Wormy_ | It doesn't use brackets, which is what I'm having to get used to |
| 18:43.07 | ImpyDroid | {} <- These things |
| 18:43.10 | ImpyDroid | These things suck |
| 18:43.19 | ImpyDroid | Thank God Python does not have them |
| 18:43.34 | ImpyDroid | What kind of stuff do you do with Python? |
| 18:43.46 | Technobliterator | A few other languages don't, though |
| 18:44.12 | Technobliterator | Personally, I code my workout schedule and money management in Python, among other stuff :P |
| 18:44.12 | ImpyDroid | Yeah but I only know C-languages mostly |
| 18:44.17 | Technobliterator | Also, my bot is Python based |
| 18:44.18 | Wormy_ | Learning how to program algorithms in it. Also learning MySQL & PHP for databases, and UNIX for networks |
| 18:44.33 | ImpyDroid | Heh, we do dictionary work |
| 18:44.41 | ImpyDroid | I did a search software for example |
| 18:45.01 | ImpyDroid | Like a program that searches through strings and/or texts |
| 18:45.06 | Wormy_ | nice |
| 18:45.40 | Wormy_ | What I'm trying to do is create a program that halvs a number and halves again until it loops to the right answer |
| 18:45.52 | ImpyDroid | The right answer being? |
| 18:46.13 | Technobliterator | That sounds fairly easy to do |
| 18:46.14 | ImpyDroid | That thing is easy |
| 18:46.30 | Wormy_ | Well it plays a game with you, you pick a number and get the computer to guess your number with <,>,= inputs |
| 18:46.36 | ImpyDroid | Basically just a cycle that either breaks or returns some value at a certain point |
| 18:46.41 | Wormy_ | And corrects if you put numbers in |
| 18:46.44 | Wormy_ | yeah |
| 18:47.08 | ImpyDroid | Wait how do you call "for" things in English |
| 18:47.11 | ImpyDroid | Loops? Cycles? |
| 18:47.16 | Wormy_ | Loops |
| 18:47.23 | ImpyDroid | Oh, we call them cycles |
| 18:47.26 | ImpyDroid | I meant loop |
| 18:47.27 | Wormy_ | I'm using a while loop, should I use a For |
| 18:47.45 | NeonPanda | I'd say while |
| 18:47.51 | Technobliterator | While sounds better for what you're trying to do |
| 18:48.02 | ImpyDroid | While yeah |
| 18:48.06 | NeonPanda | while (computer's number) =/= (your number), repeat |
| 18:48.14 | ImpyDroid | ^ that |
| 18:48.14 | Technobliterator | ^ |
| 18:48.28 | Technobliterator | for loops are mostly if you need it to loop a certain number of timews |
| 18:48.28 | NeonPanda | I answered a coding question! *squees* |
| 18:48.30 | Wormy_ | aye, I'll stick to while http://pastie.org/private/4kr4si5ihgklwahgoq0weg |
| 18:49.07 | Wormy_ | Unfortunately, it just cycles through a couple of numbers at the moment |

| 20:33.08 | Technobliterator | ah, alright |
| 20:33.27 | Ghel | As for "the fifth dimension", what that really refers to is the whole of five-dimensional space outside of realspace+hyperspace. |
| 20:33.55 | drom_ | Ghel: That is nice |
| 20:34.21 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: BTW since you asked yesterday about Finland |
| 20:34.48 | OluapPlayer | bepis |
| 20:34.49 | Imperios | Basically, after the Russian Empire fell, the Soviet Union came to reconquer all territories that were lost during the Revolution |
| 20:35.14 | Imperios | It succesfully conquered Ukraine, Belarus, all the Baltic states and Central Asia, and basically reclaimed everything |
| 20:35.18 | Imperios | With one exception |
| 20:35.23 | Ghel | Besides "holospace" and "Sequencium", I don't know if we've ever given five-dimensional space another name. |
| 20:35.35 | Imperios | Finland |

| 20:36.35 | Imperios | https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6f/Finnish_areas_ceded_in_1940_RUS.png We only got tiny pieces of Benisland a bit north of where I live |

| 20:38.43 | Imperios | "A major part of Benisi culture are the annual Perkele and Ebin festivals that are held at the headquarters of the Benis Charity Organization." |

| 20:40.21 | Monet | As if sharing an empty, abandoned hospital ward with a Xenomorph isn't creepy enough - the first section is a psychiatric ward. |
| 20:40.59 | OluapPlayer | hur |

| 20:44.23 | Monet | That's not what makes it creepy but it helps. |
| 20:48.12 | Monet | Though I kind of like how nondescript the alien is. It's never "xenomorph" "xeno" or "alien" |
| 20:48.32 | Monet | "creature" "thing" "killer" "it" |
| 20:49.01 | Monet | those four make it feel less normal. |
| 20:50.00 | Hachiman | Well |
| 20:50.13 | Hachiman | They named them "xenomorphs" in Aliens |
| 20:50.43 | Monet | "outsider shape" |

| 22:54.35 | OluapPlayer | woo |

| 23:03.34 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: hur |
| 23:04.40 | Cyrannian | Very nice work u guise |
| 23:05.25 | Xho | You could not have read all of that in 4 minutes |
| 23:05.52 | OluapPlayer | It's been 11 minutes tho |
| 23:05.52 | Cyrannian | Still reading |
| 23:06.01 | Xho | Oh shit my life |
| 23:06.02 | OluapPlayer | lern 2 time |
| 23:06.16 | OluapPlayer | Hachiman: chek prologue ending |
| 23:08.25 | Monet | I count four and a half minutes between "taking a look" and "very nice work" |
| 23:09.01 | OluapPlayer | Regardless, that part is done |
| 23:09.11 | OluapPlayer | Now we move to the part everyone else comes in |
| 23:10.13 | Xho | "Our links to the Corruptus will not be erased." Krathazhrukhal - HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH |
| 23:10.56 | OluapPlayer | Kolossus - eh |
| 23:14.22 | OluapPlayer | Hm gonna have to figure out the timespans of the new war |
| 23:14.26 | Xho | Funniest thing is |
| 23:14.35 | OluapPlayer | They're already different compared to the original |
| 23:14.38 | Xho | Angazhar's lines can be condensed into a monologue without any other interaction |
| 23:14.45 | Technobliterator | In the original, it lasted years |
| 23:15.10 | OluapPlayer | The original's Xi'Arazulha part lasted 2 years |
| 23:15.22 | OluapPlayer | The new one is like a few weeks at most |
| 23:15.32 | Technobliterator | yeah, it made no sense for the original to last long |
| 23:15.40 | Technobliterator | Since if it lasted long, the whole galaxy would be eaten |
| 23:15.50 | OluapPlayer | Also the original's Xi'Arazulha part started a year later |
| 23:15.57 | OluapPlayer | Because we already had a year-long prologue |
| 23:16.00 | Technobliterator | mhm |
| 23:16.08 | Technobliterator | which made no sense either, tbh |
| 23:16.23 | Technobliterator | there was actually so much bad writing in the war that I forgot about |
| 23:16.38 | OluapPlayer | Maybe we can have the Vague part be longer than the original to compensate |
| 23:16.56 | Technobliterator | I would agree with that |
| 23:17.10 | Technobliterator | I think that this time, the Vague should be less organized and more chaotic |
| 23:17.16 | Technobliterator | So, they attack places a lot more randomly |
| 23:17.26 | Technobliterator | because they have little control over themselves at that point |
| 23:17.31 | OluapPlayer | That and they're overall more of a match than the Xi'Arazulha |
| 23:17.41 | OluapPlayer | + gives time for everyone else to do their own war |
| 23:17.43 | OluapPlayer | s |
| 23:18.30 | Technobliterator | mhm, yeah |
| 23:18.37 | Technobliterator | Also, Business of War could be a tad longer? |
| 23:18.45 | OluapPlayer | Could be |
| 23:18.57 | Technobliterator | Since that's supposed to be a fairly long process, everyone overthrows their government, then suddenly they decide to turn on the last big government remaining |
| 23:19.21 | OluapPlayer | Yeah it probably happened too fast in the original |
| 23:19.44 | Technobliterator | I mostly rushed it |
| 23:20.04 | Technobliterator | It was the first part that got people really excited in the original war, and I rushed it |
| 23:20.05 | OluapPlayer | We had that part of the war done in like, a week? |
| 23:20.10 | Technobliterator | mhm |
| 23:20.15 | Technobliterator | It was really dumb on my part |
| 23:20.25 | OluapPlayer | Well you didn't really rushed it, we just got it done REALLY fast |
| 23:21.09 | Technobliterator | yeah, because people actually enjoyed that one |
| 23:21.15 | Technobliterator | so I was really enthusiastic as well |
| 23:21.32 | Technobliterator | with the Wrath of Gods, the other one people liked a lot, we had a much better pace |
| 23:21.34 | OluapPlayer | Okay so in the new version we have Coming of the Vague last from late 2784 to 2787, Business of War from 2787 to 2788, and Wrath of Gods from 2788 to the ending |

| 23:23.17 | Technobliterator | Hm |
| 23:23.25 | Technobliterator | I think it makes more sense for Business of War to last longer |
| 23:24.16 | OluapPlayer | I imagine one half of 2787 is Vague, the other is Business |
| 23:25.02 | Technobliterator | I mean, it would take quite a while to convince everyone to suddenly overthrow their government |
| 23:25.32 | OluapPlayer | 6-8 months is a long time |
| 23:25.59 | Technobliterator | Fair enough |
| 23:26.17 | Wormy_ | night |
| 23:26.18 | Monet | How about reestablishing a government? |
| 23:26.26 | Technobliterator | My idea was that it happens partly because of Zaarkhun's propaganda, and partly because everyone gets sick of their governments due to war rationing |
| 23:26.49 | Technobliterator | among a few other things |
| 23:27.06 | Technobliterator | but the Zoles resist it because despite rationing, they're still really well off |
| 23:28.29 | Monet | Could be worth researching how rationing has been received in the past. Though I speak from a perspective that war rationing in the 1940s UK wasn't met with mass outcry |
| 23:28.35 | OluapPlayer | Also because they've over 10,000 years of experience with wars |
| 23:29.23 | Monet | Then again part of Britain's attitude from rationing came from the government's Dig for Victory campaign. |
| 23:30.50 | Monet | So by the sound of it, the Zoles Imperium would have a mentality fit for sustaining a long period of rationing. |
| 23:31.14 | OluapPlayer | It's far from the first armed conflict they've been through |
| 23:32.09 | Technobliterator | It's easy to make everyone hate the Zoles and want to destroy them for free as well |
| 23:32.23 | Technobliterator | They've also probably gotten sick of the Zoles telling them what to do all the time |
| 23:33.03 | OluapPlayer | The Zoles don't order people around |
| 23:33.14 | OluapPlayer | The Niaka Special Forces do |
| 23:33.19 | Monet | The Zoles are highly influential though |
| 23:33.33 | OluapPlayer | They are but they don't impose authority on other nations |
| 23:33.56 | Technobliterator | Not authority, but they still probably represent everything that people have come to hate at that point |
| 23:33.57 | OluapPlayer | The Niaka do it all the time though, and their popularity at the time of the war was not too good |
| 23:34.03 | Technobliterator | making everyone want to destroy them |
| 23:35.41 | Monet | Not ordering about, not imposing authority, but the Zoles' military power and wartime significance means other nations might feel they're somehow subordinate to the Zoles Imperium. |
| 23:36.03 | OluapPlayer | Maybe but that wouldn't be the Zoles' own fault |
| 23:36.14 | OluapPlayer | Zaarkhun's propaganda would contribute to it |
| 23:38.05 | Technobliterator | Of course |
| 23:38.09 | Monet | It wouldn't be the Zoles' own fault, it's a side-effect of being the top regional power. |
| 23:38.13 | Technobliterator | ^ |
| 23:38.55 | Monet | âA man with no enemies is a man with no character.â |
| 23:38.55 | Monet | â Paul Newman (I was browsing quotes if this seems random) |

| 23:39.48 | Cyrannian | nightie night |
| 23:39.56 | DrodoEmpire | What's all this about? :o |
| 23:40.07 | OluapPlayer | Borealis War |
| 23:43.36 | Monet | DrodoEmpire: We're considering how by the time of Business of War everyone would turn against the Zoles. Who represent the last native nation in Borealis to not be struggling form rationing and prolonged wartime governorship. |
| 23:44.24 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
| 23:44.46 | DrodoEmpire | When did the Borealis War take place? |
| 23:44.49 | DrodoEmpire | Just curious |
| 23:45.09 | Technobliterator | Well, they do have war rationing, just their people aren't suffering for it |
| 23:47.07 | OluapPlayer | From 2784 to 2791 |
| 23:52.15 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
