00:59:23 Devastator_ has joined #einsteinianroulette
01:02:03 Devastator has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
01:02:06 Devastator_ is now known as Devastator
01:03:17 syv: Is
Devastator not actually present?
01:04:08 syv: Hrm. Doesn't seem so, so not movie I guess.
01:04:27 syv: Were the two of us going to continue watching Jormungand?
01:05:20 syv: I'm fine if not. The show had a high density of guns, but also a high tendency of plot-relevant panties, so I'm not particularly to finish it.
01:05:31 syv: Oh.
MidJag, are you present?
01:05:46 Devastator: You should watch Cannon Fodder from Movie Night before last.
01:05:55 syv: Presentish enough to watch a movie?
01:06:06 syv: Ah, yeah, I still have that DL'd.
01:06:50 Devastator: I think I dropped Jorg after I missed the first few times you guys saw some of it.
01:07:02 syv: But yeah
ER, if you're interested in finishing Jor, I'll happily watch it with you, and if you'd rather do something else instead with that time, I'm A-ok with that as well.
01:07:31 syv: Yeah, we were using it as a side thing to watch when only the two of us were around.
01:08:54 MidJag: Gimme like 20-30 min and I'll have a better answer
01:10:12 Devastator: Wow, another 1 and 2 in AF.
01:10:18 Devastator: I've had one roll better than a 3.
01:10:28 Devastator: It's like anti-Pumsy's.
01:11:47 syv: Don't you always roll poorly in AF though?
01:12:00 syv: In PS you roll badly sometimes and really well other times.
01:12:48 Devastator: Yeah, but those three perfects outweigh some things.
01:12:49 MidJag: Did
dev take up the Xantalos mantale?
01:14:18 Devastator: No, it's been 1, 1,1 ,3, 6, 1, 1, 2.
01:15:45 Devastator: Yes terrible, though.
01:28:34 Devastator: Good lord, though..
01:28:50 Devastator: No loot from the destroyed village? I thought you got mana for doing that.
01:30:59 MidJag: Perpahs your supposed to eat the village for it's tasty tasty mana,
01:40:42 Devastator: I do want to do my pro-anime speech for recruiting anime dudes.
01:42:27 Devastator: About how industry is defined as specialization of jobs.
01:42:39 Devastator: that is, the opposite of artisan work.
01:42:49 Devastator: and how, thus, industry is what allows for people to be special.
01:48:02 Devastator: Nifty! Only lost five on the deal.
01:50:06 syv: Hey
MidJag it's been a halfhour.
01:50:17 Devastator: Oh, new awful hospital.
01:50:25 Devastator: loss condition bars are now present.
01:50:38 syv: 01:08:54
MidJag: Gimme like 20-30 min and I'll have a better answer
01:50:50 syv: So gimme the better answer.
01:52:25 Devastator: Wow, I'm amazed it was even at 3 functionality.
01:52:32 Devastator: Hard to imagine less functionality.
01:53:02 ER: well, everything was just malfunctioning, not broken.
01:53:22 Devastator: Also, doesn't that show a tie rather than faster improvement?
01:53:27 syv: Having only a small amount of functionality can be worse than having none at all.
01:54:03 Devastator: Most of the doors worked, I suppose.
01:54:06 ER: I imagine that high corruption with high functionality won't be a good place to be either
01:54:09 MidJag: Uhh, won't be abel to for an hour os at least
01:54:14 syv: Electronics that hace only enough functionality to electrocute you upon touching them are decidely less useful than paperweights.
01:54:43 ER: which is also the direction we're headed in!
01:57:04 Devastator: we could go and blow up the WOOOORMS wing.
02:00:48 Devastator: Also, I think there might be a fake staff member.
02:05:25 syv: 't that confirmed awhile ago?
02:16:15 Devastator: There's a fake ward..
02:22:26 syv: I don't follow AH, but I read a fair bit awhile ago, and have read most of what you've said about it here.
02:29:19 Devastator: Yeah, the doors work, and the revive system works.
02:29:23 Devastator: the morgue sort of worked.
02:29:59 ER: the revive system manned by 2 out of 200 scissors
02:30:14 syv: It's almost like the bare minimum of things necessary for the story are functioning properly.
02:30:41 Devastator: due to the power of the unseen hand.
04:17:16 Piecewise_: Man, group work sucks
04:17:28 Piecewise_: random man in this discord
04:18:00 Piecewise_: how much for a few hours wearing this skin
04:18:42 ER: silly skel, skins are for owning, not rent
04:48:40 Piecewise__ has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:51:55 Piecewise_ has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
05:00:08 syv: It's unusual to get a "Heh" two hours *after* the joke.
05:03:32 Devastator: Also wondering what went on in that village. I'll get there and find out the guy picked a fight with Rorano Zoro or something and a building got lit on fire during the encounter.
05:09:30 Piecewise__: 10pm night before this thing is due
05:09:42 Piecewise__: get email from people saying they're starting it
05:09:58 Piecewise__: one sends me an annotated bibliography
05:10:05 Piecewise__: This is the annotation
05:10:06 Piecewise__: The antagonist of the movie is Mr. Harvey. He kills all these females because he has some sexual
05:10:06 Piecewise__: fetish towards it. Mr. Harvey also holds an interpersonal power because he has the ability to
05:10:06 Piecewise__: influence and lure the girls wherever he needs them to be in so he is able to complete his killings.
05:10:06 Piecewise__: This is something that the other characters could not see since it was within himself. After
05:10:07 Piecewise__: Susie’s murder he got comfortable with the fact that people were moving on from Susie’s death,
05:10:10 Piecewise__: until he gets his urges again.
05:10:43 MidJag: I see we have the same type of people for our group projects dubs.
05:10:44 Devastator: I see some people are enjoying the sudden death mode of scholarship.
05:10:54 Piecewise__: Was this written by a child
05:11:08 Piecewise__: this is not what an annotated bibliography is
05:11:22 Piecewise__: You explain the source and then why you used it
05:11:29 MidJag: What movie or book is this supposed to be?
05:11:40 Piecewise__: chosen by this very same person
05:11:48 Piecewise__: and equally stupid~
05:12:35 MidJag: What project are you trying to do?
05:12:50 Piecewise__: Right now its a full sentence outline
05:14:02 Piecewise__: I don't even know what you mean by that
05:14:11 MidJag: Fun. what's the overall goal, presentation of shitty movies or something?~
05:14:13 Piecewise__: I already gave them a fully documented example of what they need to do
05:14:39 Piecewise__: Presentation of an analysis of the elements of conflict found within various scenes
05:14:51 Devastator: oh wow, that's a terrible attempt.
05:15:19 Piecewise__: its pretty fucking simple really. You open the text book, you look at the chapter, you find some key terms, you take a scene, you fit the terms into the scene
05:15:42 Piecewise__: If it wasn't group work I'd be done with it long ago
05:16:01 syv: Is your grade the group grade?
05:16:39 Piecewise__: to some degree? I think its some weird bullshit where we get group and individual grades and individual grades as based on like...reports from other people?
05:16:47 Piecewise__: Its honestly retarded top to bottom
05:17:02 MidJag: OH I've done stuff like that
05:17:56 Devastator: grades by consensus?
05:19:42 Piecewise__: The teacher also teaches like public speaking so she has a bunch of weird rules about how to present
05:19:50 Piecewise__: have to use notecards of a certain size
05:20:03 MidJag: The way it worked for me was that like you get a group grade that's like 100 points. Then you give each person a form that they fill out for like each persons performance. The average of what your group members gave you is the indivual grade which is like 25 points.
05:20:20 Piecewise__: yeah something like that
MJ
05:20:21 Devastator: So bribe everyone to give you a perfect score?
05:20:27 Devastator: That really does sound stupid.
05:20:39 Piecewise__: School is only bullshit when teachers make it bullshit
05:20:54 MidJag: Nah, you just agree to all give each other full marks no matter how much you hate each other by the end
05:21:14 Piecewise__: Not always. My computer sci class is overall good
05:21:26 MidJag: I like most of my classes
05:21:27 syv: See I think that's how it would go in general, but there's
05:21:29 Piecewise__: My social psych is good
05:21:43 syv: always gonna be assholes or people taking it too seriousl who give lots of negative reviews.
05:22:06 Piecewise__: I can't wait to get negative reviews because I dared to ask people to actually do things
05:22:20 MidJag: That's when you complain to the prof
syv.
05:22:32 syv: Every comp sci class I've had was terrible, teachers who just didn't care at all and basically said "Read the book, write a program". Easy, but disappointing since I actually like the subject.
05:22:48 MidJag: and show that the other people gave you full marks and this one asshole just didn't like you
05:23:20 syv: And two of the teachers didn't know how to code, either. Literally couldn't get very simple programs to work during class.
05:24:04 Devastator: I took a technical course about fifteen years ago under a guy who learned from Alan Turing.
05:24:08 Devastator: So I have no idea what you're talking about.
05:24:43 Devastator: Nah, you may have to go over the prof's head there,
PW.
05:26:22 Piecewise__: One said they'd send it to me in an hour
05:26:27 Piecewise__: the other said they're working on it
05:26:56 MidJag: Dubs you don't know pain until you spend three days telling your group to for the love of god actually use mics for the video and then watch as the proffesor gives a C for the rough draft with the words use mics in big letters on the report.
05:27:13 MidJag: He even gave us mics from the library to use.
05:27:15 Devastator: What the hell did they use?
05:27:35 Piecewise__: handed him the video and dubbed it live
05:27:46 MidJag: That would honeslly have been better.
05:27:54 Devastator: They didn't even manage that?
05:27:56 Piecewise__: handed him a vhs tape and then a cassette for the audio
05:28:15 Piecewise__: But here's the thing
05:28:29 Piecewise__: Cellphone mics are pretty good usually
05:28:48 MidJag: Not from 20 feet away outside in a park with traffic and wind.
05:29:18 Piecewise__: what was this project?
05:30:10 MidJag: We had to make a short video documentary on this particular kind of insect.
05:30:57 MidJag: So we were standing in the park poininting to the like nodes the insect's eggs forms in the plant.
05:34:33 MidJag: Might not have been 20.
05:35:00 MidJag: It was 20 once for like an esablishin shot of the forest plus some guy narrating with trees
05:35:33 Piecewise__: Its really amazing how can just...not listen or pay attention or fucking show even the minimum amount of care
05:35:54 syv: So... like, he was being recorded with the cellphone, which was also being used as the mic?
05:36:28 Piecewise__: Because its due tomorrow at midnight but like I told them, I have class from noonish till like 11pm. I don't really want to be fucking stitching this together last minute
05:36:29 syv: Do people not own cameras outside their phones anymore?
05:36:43 Piecewise__:
sy: Honestly no not really
05:36:54 Piecewise__: unless they take video as a hobby or something
05:37:32 Devastator: I do, but I'm not normal.
05:37:42 MidJag: Some do, but only the people really into photography
05:38:09 syv: I know a couple people who do, but I guess they're arguably photography hobbyists. At least by modern standadds.
05:38:10 ER: My phone camera is actually real good
05:38:52 MidJag: Heh, there was another group project that was so horrible to finish there's still one person who refuses to talk to me to this day. I still see her around campus occasionally and she just glares at me.
05:39:15 MidJag: Both group projects were bio related.
05:42:06 Piecewise__: I'm guessing
MJ had work ethic
05:42:19 Piecewise__: which she took issue with
05:42:35 Piecewise__: some people get really fucking angry when you ask them to do things
05:43:49 Devastator: Or fixed something that she did.
05:45:20 MidJag: It was a long list of things, I think I might gotten rather terese and ended up fixing things that were poorly done.
05:46:12 Devastator: Good luck with the project, though.
05:47:48 ER: sometimes when writing a turn for one of my RTDs I'll notice mistakes in the quoted actions and quietly change them myself.
05:48:33 MidJag: Chaotic good this one. He'll be trouble.
05:49:46 Piecewise__: "my assignment will not be as long as yours, i dont speak in that way"
05:49:49 ER: that impulse is more driven by my lawful aspect to be honest.
05:57:41 MidJag: Dubs remember, when all else fails intimidating your group mates into doing the things that will prevent you all from failing is always the nuclear option.
05:58:41 Devastator: Sadly, it doesn't get any better after entering real life.
05:59:50 Piecewise__: I already told them if they didn't post I'd replace their section with Poop and eggplant emojis
06:00:36 MidJag: in the shape of poop and eggplants
06:00:56 Devastator: Or a picture of the guy from Chulip holding up a poopy.
06:02:28 Piecewise__: I do have that website of pornographic ascii art
06:03:44 MidJag: I'm somehow amazed that exsists
06:04:16 ER: seems pretty self-explainatory
06:10:31 syv: A subreddit isn't a website. And it's not surprising at all that websites exist for that. Plural.
06:12:26 syv: I'm not clicking these FYI.
06:13:20 syv: Also,
MJ, aren't you supposed to be busy with something or other?
06:13:36 syv: ASCII porn seems like a low priority compared to whatever it was.
06:14:19 Devastator: There is always time for ascii porn.
06:15:52 syv: There's always time for anything. Hence "low priority".
06:27:11 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
07:19:29 Piecewise__ has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
08:10:44 Devastator: "They've also got flamethrowers but don't carry high explosives so are clearly inferior."
08:33:31 syv: Huh. Never been hit by Genichiro's armorless grab before. I recognize the Judo technique he uses, and he uses it wrong.
08:33:59 syv: It makes me sad how on occasion I can recognize Judo in games and movies and such, and they usually get it wrong.
08:34:42 Devastator: That applies to far more than CQC..
08:35:59 syv: Well yeah. Virtually ever technical skill depicted in media will be depicted wrong unless the writer is a genuine expert in the field. Many non-technical things too, like basic human interaction, if I'm being honest.
08:36:27 syv: But Judo in particular being done wrong while visually looking recognizable makes me sad.
08:37:58 ER: dammit that moment when you see where a word fits in your brain and it's not fucking there
08:40:55 ER: but yeah, I think that the writer shouldn't have to be an expert themselves, at least for any fairly large project.
08:41:06 ER: that's what experts are for
08:42:22 ER: Also requires the writer to be smart enough to notice where they don't really understand something, but eh that can't be TOO rare.
08:46:53 Devastator: Maybe I should run a SG set in the overlord world.
08:47:17 ER: that would be awesome and strange and terrible
08:47:48 syv: It's not even a particularly interesting LitRPG setting. Average at best.
08:48:05 ER: also that's pretty much "I should run an SG set in a generic fantasy setting"
08:48:13 syv: ...Though I suppose the genre's nature makes it difficult to do better than that.
08:48:30 Devastator: I mostly want an excuse to have strange and bizarre level options, along with piles of semi-random junk from beyond.
08:48:45 syv: Then... make an original setting that's better?
08:48:55 Devastator: Would you be able to tell?
08:49:13 Devastator: I mean, I would have to make up basically all of it.
08:49:22 Devastator: and it wouldn't be set in any of the nations that have been found.
08:49:38 ER: you could at least make up your own terrible generic isekai setting :P
08:49:56 ER: oh, in that case that's pretty much what you'd be doing
08:49:57 syv: I guess I haven't seen many of your settings, though. I suppose you don't tend to write strange so much as historically mundane. Barbarians was different, but struck me more as straight Conan.
08:50:21 Devastator: I still don't know what the word means.
08:50:23 ER: the mice one was strange, but we made that :P
08:50:40 Devastator: I could set it in a stranger setting. I could do a SG based on that aborted RPG.
08:50:47 syv: Isekai means a person from the real world being transported into a LitRPG world.
08:50:48 Devastator: That's fairly mundane but a little weirder.
08:51:08 Devastator: why would I have you play someone transported into that world?
08:51:44 syv: I think it may also require the person knowing about the LitRPG world due to having played it as a game or something, almost every single one I know of is done like that.
08:51:49 ER: obviously you wouldn't, you never focus on the interesting part~
08:52:07 syv: I wouldn't think you'd do that, but
ER brought up Isekai so I had to shoot that down before it had a chance to take root.
08:52:41 Devastator: I could do that other thing as well, but it wouldn't be my first choice.
08:52:44 syv: The longer youvlet cancer fester, the worse.
08:52:50 ER: I've gotten like 45% to seriously considering making an isekai game.
08:52:52 Devastator: so you want the RPG setting or birdgame?
08:53:13 Devastator: and 168% seriously for magical girls.
08:53:32 syv: RPG setting plays to my tastes more, but I also like Bridgame and am mildly invested in it, plus I think it'll end relatively quickly.
08:54:03 syv: He hasn't finished Refine actually. I'd put it more like 80% of the way to seriously making an MG hgame.
08:54:38 Devastator: I meant 'considering'
08:54:43 Devastator: seriously considering.
08:55:20 ER: is 200% of considering actually doing?
08:57:08 Devastator: ok, I'll continue birdgame then.
08:57:30 ER: 210% seriously considering an angel game. yay.
08:57:49 ER: maybe a little less than 210
08:59:06 syv: It mighr be more like 195%.
08:59:19 syv: Tactihell is the 210% one.
08:59:48 ER: should I remind you that you haven't actually gotten to fight anything in tactical hell yet?
09:00:31 syv: I killed three idiots with weapons.
09:01:59 syv: Also, I've taken actions in Tactihell, made trades and build choices and commands and looted stuff and a bunch of other gamey stuff.
09:02:18 syv: In Vessel, I've spawned and made a build, and that's pretty much it as far as game things.
09:04:23 ER: for you, while for me I've gotten to do a lot of things already, seeing as I have 16 characters evenly split between PC and NPC to be thinking about >.<
09:04:54 syv: You say that like this is a good thing. :\
09:05:31 syv:
ER, have you cuddled with kittens today?
09:06:03 ER: cuddling mixed with fending off
09:07:30 syv: You must hug them until they learn to stop struggling and instead just go to sleep.
