00:00:27 syv: Any idea when you want to RP this scene?
00:01:19 Devastator: Whenever's convienent if you're doing it.
00:08:10 syv: Teeth and digestive tract or just tract?

syv) Ekrov would do both, but then I thought you wanted monstrous elements, so...
00:10:15 Devastator: teeth and tract. Feline would be better than shark teeth anyway.
00:10:58 ER: what, don't you want to collect your teef?
00:11:14 Devastator: not many orks around.
00:11:20 Devastator: though I do have a plant jade now.
00:11:21 ER: wonder if there's a Teeth material
00:12:29 Devastator: I think claws are Chiten.
00:13:55 syv: I could stick angelic in there...
00:14:04 syv: If you're already risking a mutation...
00:16:29 syv: That is the character's name.
00:16:37 syv: This coincidence has tickled me for a long time.
00:17:33 syv: Action edited,
Devastator.

03:01:15 syv: I don't know what I just watched.
03:01:39 syv: Why do people still buy consoles?
03:01:55 ER: also btw they're remaking demon's souls and it's still only on playstation
03:02:01 ER: so that's a little soul crushing
03:07:29 syv: I'll just wait until emulation is good enough.
03:08:16 ER: well, seems you can emulate demon's souls pretty well at this point
03:08:45 ER: haven't bothered with it myself because it still seems jank and like stuff to work out
03:09:47 syv: Maybe I'll play it after I beat and 100% both Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne
03:18:21 ER: really wish I still had my ps3

04:25:33 ER: found a bunch of things I know that I want to play, and also a bunch of things I suspect I would enjoy going through the things I own in this bundle
04:25:58 syv: Why is this being given for 5$?
04:26:18 ER: all the games were donated by their owners
04:26:45 syv: And it sounds like there's several hundred games
04:27:02 syv: Divide them into different bundles, and have each bundle be given for 5+ dollars!
04:27:22 ER: games, asset packs, and tabletop RPGs
04:27:30 ER: and probably other things besides
04:27:44 syv: It's still a ridiculous steal for anyone who wants games, and increases the minimum gain from the uncharitable buyers.
04:28:41 ER: well, they met their $5,000,000 goal, so it can't have been a terrible strategy
04:29:28 syv: A strategy that has 5% efficiency is still a terrible strategy even if it's sufficiently efficient. >:(
04:29:39 syv: And no, it's not terrible, they could just get more.
04:29:53 ER: I'm sure the fact that it's an insane steal for any one of the best games in it convinced plenty of people to spend those $5
04:30:58 syv has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
04:31:19 ER: I mean, the absurd generosity of the bundle itself makes people spread word of it even if they don't care about the cause
04:32:09 ER: I'm not convinced they could have gotten better value by chopping it up, or increasing the minimum contribution. That would just annoy people.
04:32:28 ER: it's the original humble bundle model, just on a larger scale
04:33:40 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:35:17 syv: I still think it could get similar publicity with a bunch of 5$ bundles, each of which is worth a hundred times that amount.
04:36:13 ER: well, the other thing is that things kept getting added to the bundle
04:36:25 ER: when I bought it it was less than 800 projects
04:36:38 syv: "Buy 1,658 items for $5 - Regularly ~$9,204 save 99%!"
04:38:19 syv: Man, the *top* contribution still only paid ~50% of the current total cost.
04:39:24 ER: I'm not sure what kind of person would actually want every item here enough to pay full price
04:40:03 syv: Nor would anyone want all of it for 10% the price.
04:46:46 ER: "Rebop Blasters is an overpowered platform brawler with destructible terrain and a jazz soundtrack created by the players."
04:47:39 ER: it's only an in-development demo and local multiplayer only, but I love how that sounds
04:49:45 syv: I wish this had a way to filter with tags or something.
04:51:04 ER: they say they'll be improving the download page soon
04:51:39 Devastator: was with RL friends.
04:52:30 syv: Itch is selling Itch for $5 to support BLM.
04:52:43 syv: Egan and I are arguing over whether they're being dumb about it.
04:53:37 ER: I bought all of itch for $15 cause I'm generous like that :P
04:56:30 Devastator: multi-controller action?
04:56:36 Devastator: that's the reason for consoles I can remember.
04:56:58 ER: it's required for the game I was just talking about
05:01:02 syv: Yeah, I have two dongles that can connect four controllers at once, each.
05:01:26 syv: Also I can use xbox controllers, PS controllers, or Steam controllers, or Steel Battalion controllers, as I please.
05:01:42 syv: And remap them however I like.
05:03:06 Devastator: well, I'm down enough ports I have trouble with more than two currently.
05:04:38 syv: Considering I can replace all the ports on my consoles with two ports on my PC... yeah, I don't see the problem.
05:04:57 syv: People buy consoles for loyalty or because of exclusives.
05:05:06 Devastator: well, I don't like to unplug my mouse, and fairly often have a keydrive in another one..
05:05:06 syv: Exclusives exist to make people buy consoles.
05:05:11 Devastator: so that usually leaves one free.
05:05:25 syv: Does your computer have an HDMI?
05:05:43 syv: You don't count then because your computer sucks.
05:05:51 Devastator: why would I want one?
05:08:44 syv: Because then you can connect it to a TV screen to replace a console fully.
05:08:57 syv: Pretty sure that's more or less required to use a console, in fact.
05:09:50 syv: I was counting the HDMI port when I said two ports on my comp can replace all ports on a console.
05:10:35 syv: One for connecting it to a TV, which almost all consoles need, one to attach a peripheral to connect controllers.
05:11:05 syv: I suppose I *do* have the PS2, which has ports for memory cards
05:11:20 syv: But I think that's kind've moot at this point?
05:12:22 ER: I had the dreamcast. Memory cards slotted into the controllers.
05:12:35 ER: and had little screens in em
05:12:57 ER: and also buttons, like a tiny little memory card gameboy
05:13:12 Devastator: yes, I do remember those.
05:13:32 ER: I'd say that was great, but I don't think I ever get it to work for anything
05:13:42 ER: either I was too dumb or mine were broken
05:14:36 Devastator: weren't they for minigames?
05:15:40 ER: the screen would also show entirely useless little images while playing a game, slotted into the controller
05:50:51 syv: This pizza box has instructions on how to carry it.
05:51:05 syv: And says "in the case of right handedness, reverse instructions"
05:53:46 ER: perhaps you're intended to hold it left handed so that you can right handedly open doors and such
05:54:18 ER: and "right handedness" here means "unable to use left hand, but can use right"
07:25:58 ER: that would be a really good idea
