00:00.14MonetI feel like these Steam awards could be called 'the Steamies' but that sounds awkward.
00:05.42MonetMore random, after watching the Rick and Morty episode I just realised: When the Devil/Mr. Needful sets up a modernised 'Needful Things' he dresses like Steve Jobs
00:09.05MonetWHich...kind of fits
00:32.16NeonPandaMonet: yeah, when I hear "Steamies" I think of something else
00:35.19MonetYeah not the best idea
00:37.09NeonPandagolden valves maybe?
00:41.55MonetMaybe although the image for the Steam awards tophy is a block
00:42.57MonetActually it's kind of interesting how some designs of trophy have gone from a golden cup or a statuette to a clear plastic block with either a printed label or a laser scan inside.
00:44.15NeonPandacheaper, more "future"
00:44.45NeonPandamy dad has a bunch of trophies (a couple of which are technically mine), they really weigh down anything we put them on so most of them are in storage
00:45.18MonetMakes sense now that gold is priced at $1k/kilo
00:46.15MonetThen again I once did a project in level 3 art and design where we had to design a new trophy and we all learned that awards like the golde nglobes, grammys and academy awards are wood or resin coated in gold. Not solid gold.
00:47.37MonetAlso I imagine a solid gold statuette is more fragile.
01:04.56NeonPandawell depending on the exact alloy
01:06.21NeonPandaI can't remember the specifics but most display gold (i.e. gold you actually look at) is likely to be 18 carat (aka only about 2/3 gold), but we're so used to seeing it that pure gold doesn't look like "gold" to most people

01:09.59The_RandomnessHello
01:12.22NeonPandahi u
01:13.03The_RandomnessI can finally get done with my CS now
01:15.06MonetWahoo
01:15.26NeonPandayey
01:15.32NeonPandanow I don't have to bludgeon you with a wet fish
01:15.43The_Randomnesslol
01:15.53NeonPandaslowly puts the wet fish back in the esky
01:16.19HachimanVery naisu
01:16.53MonetAlso earlier today I did a tiny thing http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Draconid_Imperium/Society#Standard_of_Living
01:17.05The_RandomnessI spent half of the time on this graphics project just getting things set up so then it could run on my computer, since it requires some stuff that won't work over the way I usually access the lab machines remotely
01:17.16The_RandomnessBut hey, I have an Ubuntu VM now, so that should never happen again
01:19.27Tek0516The_Randomness: We're supposed to use some special Linux VM for one CS course but for whatever reason the VM doesn't even work. >.<
01:19.32The_Randomness:<
01:20.23Tek0516And in case you ask, there is a fix for the specific issue. It didn't work. >.>
01:20.35The_Randomnessthat sucks
01:24.15Tek0516Though all that class uses it for is running SQL, so not exactly a huge deal.
01:25.57The_Randomnessrelevant: http://xkcd.com/327/
01:27.19NeonPandaif that actually worked I would laugh my skinny white arse off
01:27.36The_Randomnesslol
01:28.03Hachimankek
01:29.54NeonPandaalso, this totally means we're playing tomorrow right? *only slightly twitches*
01:30.16HachimanAfraid not, I ain't got maps and shit planned for tomorrow
01:30.23HachimanPlus I'm out
01:30.30The_Randomnessok
01:30.32NeonPandafair enough
01:30.39Tek0516It is valid SQL, though I think it should theoretically only work on badly written systems.
01:30.55Monetgoodnight

02:03.32Tek0516Well my bored multi-threading experiment seems to have worked. Somehow I managed a difference of over 5x even though I'm on a quad-core machine. XD (Some Intel thing I think)
02:13.41Wormy_nice
02:13.57Wormy_I managed to get my boolean eval thing to print expressions
02:15.13The_Randomnesssweet
02:15.20The_RandomnessWhat language are you doing this in?
02:15.35The_RandomnessAlso, does it read in expressions from a file, or...?
02:16.20Wormy_Python
02:17.38Wormy_<PROTECTED>
02:20.33Wormy_One bit I've been trying to work on today takes the expressions, asks what side they sit on the tree data structure, then asks the order of operations:  Not > And > Or, which tells it to print brackets in the right order
02:20.44Wormy_but stuck
02:22.07The_RandomnessThis is reminding me of abstract syntax trees and such
02:22.55Wormy_That is indeed what it is
02:23.06The_Randomnessyeah, looked like it
02:28.00Wormy_Well, I best be off to bed
02:28.07The_Randomnessgoodnight

13:12.15NeonPandaI'm a little sad the Monkey Style feats are largely pointless, because it would be a laugh if we had a monkey who fought monkey-style
13:21.33OluapPlayerWhat are these?
13:22.16NeonPandaunarmed style feats, basically three-feat long paths that tend towards certain fighting styles (hence the name)
13:22.36NeonPandasome of them are quite nice, others aren't so much
13:24.24NeonPandathey're all in the feats section of the ultimate combat book

13:28.19NeonPandathe one neat thing it lets you do is move into an opponent's space and henceforth go apeshit on them (pun intended)
13:28.28NeonPandahey hachi
13:28.53NeonPandaI was lamenting the general weakness of the Monkey Style feats, because it would have been hilarious to have a monkey who fights monkey style
13:30.25Monethi
13:31.24NeonPandaI don't really see the use of being on the ground all the time, aside from being a breakdancing monkey
13:41.07MonetHachiman: I had a look at a review of that Danny Dyer episode
13:41.19MonetTurns out Danny may not be eligible for the throne
13:43.05MonetHis connection to Edward III is by marriage of Henry Cromwell marrying a woman called "Seymour", descended form Hotspurs and Plantagenets
13:43.37MonetOr Seymour is from house Seymour (as in Jane Seymour)
13:44.29NeonPandaHotspur... as in Garcia Fucking Hotspur? (sorry, first thing I thought of)
13:46.23MonetMore likely as in Henry Percy, son of the 1st earl of Northumbria.
13:46.28HachimanAs in, Tottenham Hotspurs?
13:49.13MonetHenry gained the nickname "Harry Hotspur"
13:49.20Monetnot sure where
13:52.29MonetFound his connection to Edward III - Henry's wife was Elizabeth Mortimer, granddaughter of Edward III.
13:52.40Monetgreat-grand-daughter sorry

14:02.08MonetSo if my knowledge of genealogy is correct, Dyer's is not an eligible inheritor of Plantagenet.
14:02.39HachimanIf he is, he is probably incredibly distant
14:05.32MonetHis bloodline trail goes Plantagenet -> Percy .... -> Seymour/Russell -> Cromwell
14:08.41MonetALthough I think any older than 17-1800s ancestries bloat exponentially.
14:14.07MonetHis more relevant ancestry is more...what you'd expect.
14:14.33Hachimanhur
14:15.20MonetHe's got French blood...from a family that lived in Whitechapel.

14:25.13HachimanIt's fortunate that the Sovereignty alone most probably has more than 500 registered, fully-fledged luxomancers and that cold steel and adamantine weapons are a thing that exist

14:26.34Quark8Hello.
14:26.55DrodoEmpireThis Raging Devil guy's been making OP fictions the whole time he's been here
14:27.12DrodoEmpireI think its sorta on us for not letting him know this isn't a good thing
14:27.19DrodoEmpireWell, on *me*
14:27.29MonetHe has to hear
14:27.30DrodoEmpireAs I'm always the guy who offers criticism in that regard
14:27.38Hachiman"They are made up of more than one kind of Infector, there are many types, which will be shown later on in the text." "These units were once innocent beings, now shambling corpses that do the Overmind's bidding. The Infected unit can only be created by the Seeker, and they spread the infection faster than any of the units."
14:28.00HachimanThen... if they're only created by the Seeker, the other "Infectors" aren't actually Infectors
14:29.23DrodoEmpireHalifaxia - Stop                                                       Get some help
14:30.27HachimanDrodoEmpire: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Khargrim_Greatholds I also got history and shit down for the Greatholds
14:30.35DrodoEmpireOh cool
14:30.37MonetIt sounds like a self-contradiction.
14:30.41OluapPlayer_Vargash - can i offer you a nice cup of extinction
14:31.43MonetThe infected spread the infection faster than any other unit...but only the Seekers can infect people
14:32.47HachimanHonestly, dark magic is probably not a very efficient way to have an "infectious 'zombie' horde" when venomancy is a thing that exists and does infection and viruses better than you
14:33.51HachimanI was also about to say it's probably a little more difficult to counter but upon revision, I'm not entirely sure if that's true considering dark's only real opposition is light
14:35.13DrodoEmpireJust read through the history
14:35.13MonetQuestion is, is this dark- as in "night" or "shadow" or dark as in "bad/evil"
14:35.15DrodoEmpireI like it
14:36.00OluapPlayer_The latter
14:36.51Monet<PROTECTED>
14:37.43HachimanAs per my understanding, dark magic encompassed elements of both
14:38.02OluapPlayer_afaik "night" and related is encompassed in storm magic
14:38.06HachimanAs in, you can use it for bad / evil like necromancy and you can also use it to control shadows and whatnot as
14:38.10OluapPlayer_As little sense that makes
14:38.49HachimanEh, fair
14:39.18HachimanOne does not need to be evil to use dark magic though, and we have a lot of good / neutral dark magic users if I recall
14:39.29HachimanOr at least a number of them
14:39.57OluapPlayer_Sure, but the magic itself is essentially evil energy
14:40.18HachimanYeah
14:41.18HachimanSo on revision, venomancy is probably easier to counter than dark magic given that it's probably got more counters to it than dark
14:41.31HachimanBut it is also better at the whole infection and contamination thing far better
14:42.04OluapPlayer_Regardless we already have an established faction of infecting monsters
14:42.13OluapPlayer_Much better written than that
14:42.22Hachimandats arguable
14:44.18Monet<PROTECTED>
14:44.34HachimanMindless hordes are generic in general
14:55.41OluapPlayer_Somehow I forgot to add Dakster to the BoreWar cast page until now

18:26.41ImperiosYeah it is
18:26.44DrodoEmpireHave they provided a reason as to why its shutting down?

18:58.53Wormy_Also, think I diagnosed my networking issue, my router was slow to receive data from the computer, or none at all, so while I was connected, there wasn't enough throughput to load a page
18:59.17Wormy_So I turned off some possible sources of interference
18:59.22Wormy_And its a bit better now
18:59.45Wormy_Though I can't be too sure
18:59.46Tek0516It's been on the development list for a while. They arguably made their first step towards that with the addition of AI crew members and deployable fighters.
18:59.46Tek0516~test
18:59.46infobotsomebody said test was not funny
19:00.21Wormy_Sounds like a testbed for it
19:02.13Monetdino82_:..RN Still fears an NTZO attack?
19:03.28dino82_@Monet: Defintely yes, the Gorge Dispute is not yet solved and with the massive French navy currenlty stationed within the NZTO they fear the France and NZTO will attempt to break teh Gorge if the rambo woudl give a provocation
19:04.05MonetYeah firing a citybuster at an NTZO city will do that...
19:05.58dino82_Idd, firing weapoins into the NZTO, even though Gaskhan is neutral would be quite a provocation
19:06.08dino82_luckily Fleur had some common sense that it was immoral to do
19:06.13Tek0516Firing a long-range high yield weapon on any kind towards NZTO space would do that really.
19:06.37dino82_officers like Judge Magister Ramhis would like nothing more than remove threats no matter the costs
19:06.42dino82_he is quite ruthless
19:08.13MonetThey might have missed the chance to bomb him but there's always more surgical ways of finding him.
19:08.32Tek0516Commiting mass murder of civilians in neutral/enemy territory is nothing but an act of aggression and an act of war that can never end well. >.>
19:08.42MonetEg dispatch field agents and surveillene operations to any starport the ship could travel to.
19:10.04MonetOr sensor-sweep areas he's likely to ass though. After all surely no stealth field bar any kind of godtech is beyond penetration.
19:10.10MonetRight?
19:10.23dino82_Idd, it would take hte Rambo into a dark path of no return, not something the politicians would agree too. Not even rambert the king would agree to this plan
19:11.04dino82_It isn't, but small freighters that fly alone are often difficult to detect, especially now that the Rambo focus more on NZTO ships for inspection than those with Quadrantia origins
19:11.11dino82_Stekius and Aubry make use of the current situatino
19:11.15MonetPlus there was always the curiosity of what *kind* of stealth.
19:12.04MonetThere's visual sure, but also thermal, infra-red and gravitational detection.
19:12.33dino82_Idd that is true
19:12.46dino82_thought it shows some dillema the Rambo crrently face :P
19:12.58dino82_other less willing beings that are not allies of RAmbo takes advance of teh current dispute
19:13.07dino82_as many rambo resources are drawn to the Gorge
19:13.24MonetWhat might make finding him easier is Rambo can work out his trajectory with...moderate ease.
19:14.08Wormy_Tek0516:  What is the Horizon's Season Pass?
19:14.17Wormy_Does it let you land on planets?
19:16.20Tek0516Horizons basically includes many of the special features being introduced over 2016 (with a new one probably going to be introduced next year). Landing on planets is the main one but I'm not sure what else it includes right now. Engineers are planet-based so I think it includes them.
19:16.53Wormy_Might as well get the Delux edition then
19:17.16Wormy_Includes all the passes and is the same price of ED and Horizons put together
19:19.39Tek0516I actually haven't played for a while (hardware reasons mostly) so I'm not sure how the recent changes are.

20:16.23MonetThey do it in a few empires already but maybe the Imperium's diplomatic corps has an advisory branch. Basically a select few Draconis who offer themselves as advisors to allied governments.

21:13.13ImperiosThe SSA? The Onuris Alliance?
21:20.05dino82_i guessthe SSA an the Board of 8 before they fell apart
21:24.46Monet-Immediate- aftermath
21:25.20MonetThe Board was formed long after the WoA. But the SSA I think was important immediately after
21:28.33Tek0516I think Dino might mean the G8, not the later Xonexi "Board of X", unless I'm mistaken.
21:29.15dino82_idd the G8

21:40.45Tek0516Hi Wormy_
21:41.05Wormy_So I bought ED Delux edition
21:41.32Wormy_I think the price will be a few coffee breaks
21:41.46Wormy_*a few less coffee breaks
21:42.13Tek0516Lol
21:42.40Wormy_its silly because I'd happily get out the same amount of money for a pub night
21:43.16Wormy_<PROTECTED>
21:44.05Tek0516There's a bit of a grind to the game (I'll refrain from making NMS jabs) but it's quite enjoyable overall. You might like the game's exploration side, but others like combat and trading are good too.
21:44.15Monet<PROTECTED>
21:44.45OluapPlayer_http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Second_Borealis_Galactic_War/Part_1#Meeting_on_Pax-Paladi 3 new sections
21:45.12Tek0516Wormy_: If you have a joystick I recommend using one, really improves the experience.
21:45.12Wormy_I think I'll be an explorer
21:45.30Wormy_I don't for PC, unfortunately
21:45.49dino82_nice tek!
21:46.12Wormy_Tbh I've wanted to play an online game set in a simulation of the galaxy for a like time
21:46.55Wormy_I'll be an explorer, living on the edge of known space for trade and supplies, but diving into the deep starry abyss
21:47.26Wormy_*for a long time
21:47.42Wormy_Since we were all anticipating Infinity The Quest for Earth
21:48.19Tek0516Full scale representation of the galaxy with even the realistic star count, plus most of the RL star catalogues.
21:48.58Wormy_I like the fact it has many different astronomical objects and planetary classifications with meaningful data
21:49.19Wormy_Makes the challenge of each environment uniquely interesting I hope
21:49.22Tek0516Certain areas (for example Polaris) are currently locked out due to future plot stuff.
21:49.33Wormy_thats alright
21:51.26Tek0516Most popular travel sites are Sagittarius A* and Beagle Point (At the time the furthest reachable star from Earth)
21:51.47Wormy_cool
21:52.00Tek0516Pelaides is also really popular due to being really close and major plot stuff.
21:52.58Wormy_Are there super and hypergiants like Betelgeuse and Canis Majoris in the game?
21:53.42Tek0516Yeah. All kinds of stars, big and small, old and young.
21:57.12Wormy_I hear that the gravitational attraction of different bodies also varies depending on the mass, meaning that the player has to treat each one with different approaches
21:57.18Tek0516The range of your ships unsurprisingly gets higher with the more expensive ones. I think early ones you can get 10, maybe 20ly jumps but the fully modified late game ones I've heard can exceed 60ly.
21:57.35Wormy_Wow
21:57.48Wormy_And do ships accumulate stress and damage over time?
21:58.05Wormy_That was one thing that was going to be in Infinity
21:58.23Wormy_And supposedly NMS
22:00.02Tek0516Not usually unless you screw up. The most common is from flying too close to a gravitational body in supercruise, or heat damage (especially while in supercruise), both of which happen a lot more than you'd think.
22:01.51Tek0516A particularly disastrous damage that can happen is your canopyvgetting destroyed. Cabin gets vented and you have only a limited sir supply to get to a station.
22:01.54Tek0516*air
22:02.39Wormy_damn, thats not a good situation
22:02.57Tek0516It's a terrifying one when it happens.
22:03.47dino82_bye bye
22:04.35Tek0516Each system has its own health in addition to hull itself so you can have single systems fail.
22:05.08Charles_BotTek0516: that awesome feeling when you overcharge your economy and tech production in Stellaris while only being a tiny state, get to Jump Drives, and the research only takes 18 months
22:05.58Tek0516Another terrifying one is in combat, since you can get your FTL drive to fail. I've been stuck in the middle of a warzone, minimal hull integrity, desperately trying to reboot my FTL drivr
22:06.11Tek0516Charles_Bot: O.O
22:06.30Wormy_I like forward to this game
22:06.43Wormy_Shan't play until I've completed by submissions
22:06.59Tek0516It's not perfect but I've gotten my money's worth out of itm
22:10.05Tek0516Wormy_: You should also look into whether you'd join the Federation, Empire, Alliance, or one of the Independents. :P (All hail the Emperor.)
22:11.08Wormy_Independents sounds up my street
22:13.07Tek0516There's the three major factions and 10 minor Powerplay factions. I can imagine you going Sirius Corp.

23:13.29MonetHi
23:15.30MonetAfter reading about the Skaven I feel like tossing a little more mad science to the Theians
23:17.04Tek0516Okay, about to post another chapter
23:17.38MonetLike they could have a whole theme of "because whyever not?" when it comes to science and technology

23:27.49Tek0516First fiction in a while so feedback is appreciated. :P
23:32.14NeonPandaTek0516: is dum and u shud feel dum
23:32.22NeonPandaJoking aside, I'm partway through and like what I've read so far
23:33.14Monet"The resulting scandal ended with the United Republic of Cyrannus publically denouncing the Dei'Ar Theocracy and Agnassana personally slapping the Clericarch in the face" that's a moment I want to see.

23:35.05OluapPlayer_Cyrannian: breddy gud/10
23:35.40Cyranniandanke
23:47.52MonetBack thinking of the Theians they're not -completely- bonkers (a stormy planet populated by masses of jungle, giant rock-eating worms and bugs the size of cars is their adopted homeowrld) but perhaps they erally really like experimenting
23:48.50MonetAlso another suggestion I guess is their philosophy on mind, body and spirit and their biomechanical experiments.
