Mar 18, 2019 9:58 AM - theLumberJack: how close is the water to you stat?

Mar 18, 2019 10:21 AM - theLumberJack: ah
Mar 18, 2019 10:21 AM - theLumberJack: so good for pathfinder?
Mar 18, 2019 10:31 AM - Statboy: Yah, were good, never lost power
Mar 18, 2019 11:07 AM - theLumberJack: sweet
Mar 18, 2019 1:19 PM - theLumberJack: installing debian on a panel at work to play with our rtos on a hypervisor
Mar 18, 2019 1:30 PM - TimeCrush: Game called 'Satisfactory' coming out tomorrow that I'm pretty jazzed on
Mar 18, 2019 1:30 PM - VaultBot: whelp, guess its time to agonize over my next few feats and skills again
Mar 18, 2019 1:30 PM - TimeCrush: Factorio with a z axis.
Mar 18, 2019 1:30 PM - theLumberJack: yeah i will probably get it when it comes to steam
Mar 18, 2019 1:32 PM - theLumberJack: not that im explicitly against the epic games store i just dont want to get it right when it hits early access
Mar 18, 2019 1:33 PM - TimeCrush: I had one of the Alpha Keys for last weekends tester run - had a blast
Mar 18, 2019 1:33 PM - theLumberJack: it definitely looks great
Mar 18, 2019 1:34 PM - theLumberJack: im just wary because i got subnautica really early and got burnt out on it before a lot of stuff was added to it
Mar 18, 2019 1:34 PM - TimeCrush: I have a very easy time entertaining myself in those games. On a completely different kind of game feel; I've been looking for something that replicates that old COD2 feeling when you'd snag a cross-map garand shot.
Mar 18, 2019 1:35 PM - TimeCrush: I'm staying away from BElow Zero for that exact reason
Mar 18, 2019 1:35 PM - TimeCrush: I'll let that game flesh itself out
Mar 18, 2019 1:35 PM - TimeCrush: Two different types of games though - one is about factory building and efficiency, the other is enjoying the world AS the game.
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - theLumberJack: lol true
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - theLumberJack: ive been playing the fuck out of factorio the past two weeks
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - VaultBot: isnt 4k uhd?
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - TimeCrush: I've noticed
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - VaultBot: that's where i'd take my stand, stat
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - TimeCrush: Friend and I have been doing an Angel run
Mar 18, 2019 1:36 PM - theLumberJack: i started a new game last tuesday and finally got nuclear reactors up yesterday
Mar 18, 2019 1:37 PM - VaultBot: im relaxing lol
Mar 18, 2019 1:37 PM - TimeCrush: I'm not familiar enough with the mods to even tell you where the hell we are
Mar 18, 2019 1:37 PM - TimeCrush: Liquidizing coal and then getting carbon? Pressurizing containers for rare earth gasses.
Mar 18, 2019 1:37 PM - TimeCrush: Things are happening, thats for damn sure.
Mar 18, 2019 1:37 PM - theLumberJack: i havent played with any mods so *shrug*
Mar 18, 2019 1:38 PM - TimeCrush: Surprisingly stable and of nice quality.
Mar 18, 2019 1:38 PM - TimeCrush: Bob's and Angel's are the two big names
Mar 18, 2019 1:38 PM - TimeCrush: Allegedly the next update is supposed to incorporate quite a bit of stuff from the mod scene.
Mar 18, 2019 1:38 PM - theLumberJack: yeah i see them all of the subreddit for the game
Mar 18, 2019 1:39 PM - theLumberJack: i am playing on the latest beta branch
Mar 18, 2019 1:39 PM - theLumberJack: the UI updates for 17 are very nice
Mar 18, 2019 1:41 PM - theLumberJack: im fucking stoked on my based because i went from having my coal generators at max capacity to switching to nuclear and only using a tenth of available production
Mar 18, 2019 1:42 PM - theLumberJack: so hilariously enough you can just shove steam into fluid tanks
Mar 18, 2019 1:43 PM - TimeCrush: "No its fine, just put the lid on quick before it gets out."
Mar 18, 2019 1:50 PM - theLumberJack: "its okay. the new steam will keep the old steam warm"
Mar 18, 2019 1:53 PM - TimeCrush: "Its one of those new convection barrles, don't worry about it. "
Mar 18, 2019 6:33 PM - Reechard: reinstalling mambles
Mar 18, 2019 6:36 PM - VintagePC: lol u nub
 
Mar 25, 2019 7:04 AM - theLumberJack: ghosts tonight
Mar 25, 2019 8:51 AM - Statboy: I like that no plan has been hatched for said ghosts
Mar 25, 2019 9:48 AM - theLumberJack: i hope ickodus can pull some shenanigans out of his ass cause i dont have anything special for ghosts
Mar 25, 2019 9:57 AM - Splyons1993: I mean I’m just hoping that we have enough magic weapons to still be able to deal with then
Mar 25, 2019 9:58 AM - Splyons1993: Don’t exactly have any special concoctions for dealing with incorporeal undead as a gunslinger
Mar 25, 2019 9:58 AM - theLumberJack: i could make you incorporeal
Mar 25, 2019 10:05 AM - Splyons1993: Would that even help? I doubt they’re affected by their targets being incorporeal if they’re already incorporeal. Or are you thinking that our two incorporeal cancel out
Mar 25, 2019 10:06 AM - theLumberJack: incorporeal things take less damage from corporeal things but full damage from incorporeal things
Mar 25, 2019 11:50 AM - Statboy: Its the weapon that matters, so if you could make him and his gear incorporeal that would work
Mar 25, 2019 12:41 PM - theLumberJack: unfortunately mass ghost bane dirge is a 5th level spell so i dont think ickodus will be able to spell kenning it
Mar 25, 2019 2:54 PM - Statboy: Magic weapons do half damage, you guys swung through DR 15 earlier, i imagine you'll just keep punching a ghost
Mar 25, 2019 3:57 PM - theLumberJack: lol
Mar 25, 2019 5:19 PM - Reechard: Ickodus is sick af and probably won't be here
Mar 25, 2019 6:14 PM - Statboy: ok
Mar 25, 2019 9:24 PM - VintagePC: We should consider telling ghost Lady that Rasputin had her family's captured spirits...
 
Mar 27, 2019 11:57 AM - Statboy: RIP Europe, the new internet restrictions means the EU will censor more than China does
Mar 27, 2019 4:43 PM - VaultBot: on a small screnn....
Mar 27, 2019 4:43 PM - VintagePC: article 13
Mar 27, 2019 4:43 PM - VintagePC: ?
Mar 27, 2019 4:44 PM - VintagePC: RIP berlin wall teardown, 1989-2019. It only lasted 30 years.
Mar 27, 2019 4:44 PM - VintagePC: :D
Mar 27, 2019 4:45 PM - VintagePC: guess they couldn't let china be the only one with a good firewall pun. Wonder how long it will be before the "berlin firewall" catches on
Mar 27, 2019 4:50 PM - Statboy: social media might leave the EU, if someone links or quotes a news article without permission from the news company then facebook could get fined
Mar 27, 2019 4:51 PM - Statboy: youtube can't possibly police all there content as hard as they try, they'll be the first to leave or make nearly everything unavailable in the EU.
Mar 27, 2019 5:01 PM - VintagePC: we can fix this
Mar 27, 2019 5:01 PM - VintagePC: the US just needs to sue the EU for copying their copyright system
Mar 27, 2019 5:01 PM - VintagePC: and its overly draconian rules
Mar 27, 2019 5:02 PM - VintagePC: (or rather, the really shitty/arbitrary enforcement of guilty-until-proven-innocent that plagues false copyright claims by trolls)
Mar 27, 2019 5:03 PM - VintagePC: I thought US youtube copyright shit was bad
Mar 27, 2019 5:03 PM - VintagePC: I now feel sorry for EU youtubers
Mar 27, 2019 5:03 PM - theLumberJack: Please provide proof that this is your opinion and you have not copied it from someone else.
Mar 27, 2019 5:03 PM - VintagePC: ,,, if there are any left
Mar 27, 2019 5:04 PM - VintagePC: says the man claiming to tbe *the* lumberjack. Pot, meet kettle :D
Mar 27, 2019 5:06 PM - theLumberJack: lol
Mar 27, 2019 6:51 PM - TimeCrush: Anybody following the Smollet case?
Mar 27, 2019 6:51 PM - TimeCrush: Looking at you on this one Stat
Mar 27, 2019 6:52 PM - TimeCrush: Seems like a pretty clear cut case of, 'rules for thee, but not for me' type stuff.
Mar 27, 2019 7:03 PM - Statboy: First of all, he hasn't been tried in court, so i'm not saying he's guilty
Mar 27, 2019 7:05 PM - Statboy: the whole reason to have a grand jury is to show that there is sufficient evidence to try the case in court. Has any DA ever dropped charges after a grand jury said to indite on 26 felonies?
Mar 27, 2019 7:05 PM - Statboy: that DA should lose their job
 
Mar 28, 2019 at 5:54 AM - Reechard: The "rules for thee, not for me" type shit is why the guillotine happened so....
Mar 28, 2019 at 5:54 AM - Reechard: maybe these rich assholes should pay attention to history.
Mar 28, 2019 at 5:56 AM - Reechard: there are a lot of great examples of people getting their necks stepped on too hard and starting a revolution.
Mar 28, 2019 at 6:39 AM - VaultBot: which is my mom and my stepdad. which my stepdad only started working again last year.
Mar 28, 2019 at 6:39 AM - VintagePC: Well, if history is anything to go by, we tend to repeat the same follies over and over.
Mar 28, 2019 at 6:40 AM - VintagePC: ... the irony of that is not lost on me
Mar 28, 2019 at 7:19 AM - TimeCrush: We've been hearing that forever though - it has all the clout of, "One of these days, right to the moon!" - Anytime somebody starts to get violent everybody gets all 'thoughts n prayers'
Mar 28, 2019 at 7:20 AM - TimeCrush: Violence is uncomfortable boys, but its gotta happen at some point
Mar 28, 2019 at 7:21 AM - TimeCrush:

Jussie-Smollett-hints-at-Empire-departure-Ive-throughly-enjoyed-my-time-1280x720.jpg

Mar 28, 2019 at 7:22 AM - TimeCrush: Also, this is not a case of only money
Mar 28, 2019 at 7:22 AM - TimeCrush: Say anything otherwise and your just being dishonest.
Mar 28, 2019 at 10:19 AM - Statboy: Violence isnt needed until we can no longer affect change through non violent means. Lets be honest electing trump was change, and showed that we can and will vote in an outsider who has no tact or speaking grace
Mar 28, 2019 at 12:26 PM - TimeCrush: Getting a second job for late nights or the weekends - I want more money
 
Mar 29, 2019 11:20 AM - theLumberJack: ive been tutoring on and off for extra cash
Mar 29, 2019 5:27 PM - VintagePC: ... I read that as "I've been turning..." briefly and wondered what sort of newfangled youngster thing "turning" was. I'm getting old...
Mar 29, 2019 5:28 PM - TimeCrush: Last I knew turning still meant turning tricks, being a hoe
Mar 29, 2019 5:30 PM - VintagePC: I mean... we all KNOW that's LJ's hobby anyway :D
Mar 29, 2019 6:03 PM - theLumberJack: hello boys
Mar 29, 2019 8:22 PM - VintagePC: *wolf whistle

Mar 31, 2019 3:31 PM - TimeCrush: The absolute state of my local comic / game shop.
Mar 31, 2019 5:37 PM - Statboy: Conservatives love her, we want more democrats that cant even name the three branches of government
 
Apr 1, 2019 5:54 AM - Reechard: I'd prefer more politicians who haven't been systematically fucking the entire population into the ground for forty years
Apr 1, 2019 5:54 AM - Reechard: I'd prefer more politicians that have to ask lots and lots and lots and lots of very difficult questions
Apr 1, 2019 5:54 AM - Reechard: and make people answer them truthfully, under oath
Apr 1, 2019 5:54 AM - Reechard: like the day she made an investigative committee say out loud on public television
Apr 1, 2019 5:55 AM - Reechard: that it's perfectly legal to buy legislation.
Apr 1, 2019 5:55 AM - Reechard: and there's nothing we can do about large PACs buying legislation, because it's legal.
Apr 1, 2019 5:55 AM - Reechard: so fuck your memes and fuck your shitty sound bytes
Apr 1, 2019 5:56 AM - Reechard: the government is fundamentally fucked and she is a breath of fresh air, even if she's inexperienced.
Apr 1, 2019 5:56 AM - Reechard: because I've seen what the experienced people do
Apr 1, 2019 5:56 AM - Reechard: so fuck you
Apr 1, 2019 5:56 AM - Reechard: all you can do is point at this young woman and say "hurr hurr she doesn't know everything"
Apr 1, 2019 5:56 AM - Reechard: "hurr hurr her ideas are too idealist and good"
Apr 1, 2019 5:57 AM - Reechard: get one politician in that says "hey guys maybe we should probably pay attention to the environment that we live in"
Apr 1, 2019 5:57 AM - Reechard: and we have to immediately make that shit an object of ridicule.
Apr 1, 2019 5:57 AM - Reechard: so fucking tired of this shit.
Apr 1, 2019 5:58 AM - VaultBot: nah, should be possible to set that up
Apr 1, 2019 5:58 AM - Reechard: but uh oh don't pay attention to Reechard he's a bleeding heart liberal who just thinks that maybe
Apr 1, 2019 5:58 AM - Reechard: just maybe
Apr 1, 2019 5:58 AM - Reechard: it's a little fucking ridiculous that he has to pay $20k/mo for therapy for one toddler
Apr 1, 2019 5:59 AM - Reechard: and maybe JUST MAYBE we shouldn't be throwing twice the money that it would take to literally provide reasonable medical care for the entire planet at a war complex.
Apr 1, 2019 5:59 AM - VaultBot: what are you doing?
Apr 1, 2019 5:59 AM - Reechard: and maybe we should be feeding people and maybe we should actually be taking cow farts seriously when people who know more than us tell us to
Apr 1, 2019 6:00 AM - Reechard: I've been talked down at a lot in my life
Apr 1, 2019 6:00 AM - Reechard: about shit that I know a lot about, by people who don't know as much about shit as I do, by people who's brains aren't as good as mine
Apr 1, 2019 6:00 AM - Reechard: and that's all I'm seeing politics doing now. A bunch of people thinking their opinions fucking MATTER
Apr 1, 2019 6:02 AM - Reechard: people smarter than me are saying universal healthcare will work fine
Apr 1, 2019 6:02 AM - Reechard: people smarter than me are saying Capitalism sucks and is doomed to fail, and soon.
Apr 1, 2019 6:03 AM - Reechard: people smarter than me are saying cow farts are dangerous and maybe Man is having a bad impact on the environment
Apr 1, 2019 6:03 AM - Reechard: but I have to come to one of my favorite places on the entire internet
Apr 1, 2019 6:03 AM - Reechard: and see people still talking the same fucking politics
Apr 1, 2019 6:03 AM - Reechard: and the same 2 sides of it
Apr 1, 2019 6:03 AM - Reechard: and posting the same fucking comic book to make fun of the same politician for the same shit
Apr 1, 2019 6:04 AM - Reechard: for being a young, inexperienced, idealist who actually wants to see *real change*
Apr 1, 2019 6:19 AM - Reechard: ANYWAYS /RANT
Apr 1, 2019 6:19 AM - Reechard: CAN WE TALK ABOUT VIDEO GAMES
Apr 1, 2019 6:20 AM - Reechard: BEFORE I GO INVITE LONESOME KILLER BACK AND GIVE HIM ADMIN
Apr 1, 2019 7:28 AM - TimeCrush: No dude, no we can't talk about video games after something like that.
Apr 1, 2019 7:29 AM - TimeCrush: Get bent - shes a fucking idiot who has no place in the chair she sits. I'm not going to have a 40 minute tizzy in box over how a comic book cover made me go nuclear. Again, bent, have a good one.
Apr 1, 2019 7:39 AM - Reechard: I haven't had one of these in a while, anywhere.
Apr 1, 2019 7:39 AM - Reechard: I'm just tired of seeing it *EVERYFUCKING WHERE*
Apr 1, 2019 7:39 AM - Reechard: and *THIS* is supposed to be *MY PLACE*
Apr 1, 2019 7:39 AM - Reechard: where I can escape that shit
Apr 1, 2019 7:41 AM - Reechard: but I log in here and see the same. shit.
Apr 1, 2019 7:48 AM - Reechard: I haven't fucking
Apr 1, 2019 7:48 AM - Reechard: engaged
Apr 1, 2019 7:48 AM - Reechard: in the shoutbox on my own website
Apr 1, 2019 7:49 AM - Reechard: because every time I log in, there's shit about mass shootings, exonerations of rich assholes, and people poking fun at liberal politics
Apr 1, 2019 7:49 AM - Reechard: so yeah it makes me shitty
Apr 1, 2019 7:51 AM - Reechard: I try not to fucking censor shit
Apr 1, 2019 7:51 AM - Reechard: but I am seriously over not having a single place to go anywhere on the internet to just talk about something else.
Apr 1, 2019 8:29 AM - VaultBot: i mean for work i wish we had a 4k or 2k screen do you srsly need
Apr 1, 2019 8:29 AM - Splyons1993: I’ll be out for next weeks pathfinder session. Having a belated birthday dinner with my folks since they can’t do tonight
Apr 1, 2019 8:31 AM - Splyons1993: I wouldn’t mind American politics so much if people actually bothered to debate and talk rationally to one another.
Apr 1, 2019 8:32 AM - Splyons1993: But none out of ten times it becomes character assassination and/or a shouting match. On both sides. So I don’t engage in the discussions anymore really
Apr 1, 2019 8:32 AM - Splyons1993: Nine out of ten times”
Apr 1, 2019 8:36 AM - Reechard: I'm just tired of everyone thinking they know *anything* about *anything*
Apr 1, 2019 8:36 AM - Reechard: imagine the average "C" student
Apr 1, 2019 8:36 AM - Reechard: now realize that half of people are dumber than that
Apr 1, 2019 8:37 AM - Reechard: and if you're in the top 10%, you're grossly outnumbered by absolute morons
Apr 1, 2019 8:37 AM - Reechard: and those morons have been lead to believe that their opinion on things is valid
Apr 1, 2019 8:37 AM - Reechard: and they believe their opinions are *as valid* or *more valid* than actual experts
Apr 1, 2019 8:37 AM - Reechard: which is why we have flat earthers and antivaxxers
Apr 1, 2019 8:38 AM - Reechard: in 2019
Apr 1, 2019 8:38 AM - Reechard: which is why there's a fucking measles outbreak 5 miles away from me
Apr 1, 2019 8:39 AM - Reechard: Happy birthday Splyons
Apr 1, 2019 8:39 AM - Reechard: Hi
Apr 1, 2019 8:40 AM - VaultBot: im happy if i
Apr 1, 2019 8:40 AM - Splyons1993: Thanks mate haha. Also I understand your frustration- i by no means think I’m smarter than 90% of the folks around me but it’s frustrating when people aren’t self aware enough to know when they don’t know something
Apr 1, 2019 8:40 AM - Reechard: I'm probably not smarter than 90% of the folks around me
Apr 1, 2019 8:40 AM - Splyons1993: I’m comfortable enough in my own knowledge base to at least know when I don’t know jack shit about something
Apr 1, 2019 8:40 AM - Reechard: but I'm smarter than a C average.
Apr 1, 2019 8:41 AM - VaultBot: how would you know any newish songs that have a 110"" 4k screen do you srsly need
Apr 1, 2019 8:41 AM - Splyons1993: Well to be fair grades are also a bad way of measuring common sense. A lot of the most “book smart” people I know are dumber than a sack of hammers when it comes to social skills, common sense, etc
Apr 1, 2019 8:42 AM - Reechard: It's a really REALLY big paintbrush I'm using, man.
Apr 1, 2019 8:42 AM - Splyons1993: Why is vaultbot talking over everything I say?
Apr 1, 2019 8:43 AM - Reechard: "consider your person with an average level of intelligence" takes a long time to say
Apr 1, 2019 8:43 AM - Splyons1993: Oh sure, I get that. I just dislike when school grades are used as a measure of competence in most things. There are some exceptions of course- I’d like my architects and engineers to have good grades, pls
Apr 1, 2019 8:44 AM - Splyons1993: I apologize I shouldn’t be arguing semantics
Apr 1, 2019 8:44 AM - Splyons1993: I knew what you meant
Apr 1, 2019 8:44 AM - Reechard: semantics need clarification at times, it's fine.
Apr 1, 2019 8:45 AM - Splyons1993: In other news- where the fuck did this borderlands 3 announcement come from?
Apr 1, 2019 8:45 AM - Reechard: it's PAX bro
Apr 1, 2019 8:45 AM - Splyons1993: Shit came right out of left field
Apr 1, 2019 8:46 AM - Reechard: it's PAX bro
Apr 1, 2019 8:47 AM - Reechard: but yeah you talk about unexpected
Apr 1, 2019 8:47 AM - Reechard: I thought I was getting punkd
Apr 1, 2019 8:47 AM - Splyons1993: Fingers crossed it’s more borderlands 2 than pre sequel
Apr 1, 2019 8:48 AM - Splyons1993: I was NOT very impressed by the pre sequel sadly. Didn’t feel as loveable
Apr 1, 2019 9:32 AM - Reechard: I didn't even finish pre-sequel :-/
Apr 1, 2019 9:33 AM - Reechard: I wanted more of the same, I didn't need low gravity and an arbitrary Oxygen meter to worry about.
Apr 1, 2019 9:33 AM - Reechard: *that* was the game mechanic they added... more resource management.
Apr 1, 2019 1:33 PM - Hexalan: are we still politics box
Apr 1, 2019 1:49 PM - Statboy: Yes hex, reechard ranted about politics in box then ranted about politics being in box
Apr 1, 2019 2:29 PM - Hexalan: stat i am interested in your viewpoint and would appreciate if you could clarify some things for me
Apr 1, 2019 2:39 PM - Hexalan: do you genuinely believe that aoc does not know that the federal government is composed of what are commonly called the executive, legislative, and judicial branches?
Apr 1, 2019 3:07 PM - theLumberJack: We on for Pathfinder tonight?
Apr 1, 2019 3:07 PM - theLumberJack: Also I will also miss next week as I have a work trip to Atlanta
Apr 1, 2019 3:13 PM - VaultBot: actually... according to your roll... you are gonna touch it without a pole
Apr 1, 2019 3:13 PM - VintagePC: I'm kinda with reechard, we have serious discussion for that kinda stuff...
Apr 1, 2019 4:20 PM - Statboy: Yes we on for pf tonight, but it sounds like we are down 2 for next week
 
Apr 1, 2019 at 4:38 PM - VintagePC: This makes my list of top April fools videos. Not because it's clever, but because it goes to the other extreme and is just completely absurd and brilliantly edited
Apr 1, 2019 at 4:38 PM - VintagePC:
Apr 1, 2019 at 4:39 PM - VintagePC: Especially if you like non-sequiturs
Apr 1, 2019 at 6:29 PM - VintagePC: on muh wa
Apr 1, 2019 at 6:29 PM - VintagePC: *way
 
Apr 2, 2019 1:13 PM - theLumberJack: i keep grinding my teeth at work :\
Apr 2, 2019 4:05 PM - VintagePC:
Apr 2, 2019 7:15 PM - Statboy: for years i've talked about it, now i'm finally doing it, i'm learning a coding language
Apr 2, 2019 7:25 PM - VintagePC: what one?
Apr 2, 2019 7:26 PM - Statboy: Python
Apr 2, 2019 7:55 PM - VaultBot: well... they still did decide to name it off of something else
Apr 2, 2019 7:55 PM - VintagePC: ugh... I've been dealing with python dependency hell at work
Apr 2, 2019 7:56 PM - VintagePC: literally even minor upgrades break stuff for us... the version management and whatnot is either a shitfest, or devs just don't GAF about regression testing/backwards compat
Apr 2, 2019 7:57 PM - VintagePC: ... so I'm not a fan for serious work. But I'll concede it's probably a good learning language.
Apr 2, 2019 8:19 PM - Statboy: honestly name a perfect language thats a good one to start learning on?
 
Apr 3, 2019 6:49 AM - theLumberJack: python is a good one to start learning on
Apr 3, 2019 6:50 AM - theLumberJack: dependency hell is a real concern for a lot of things not just python
Apr 3, 2019 6:50 AM - theLumberJack: but i have definitely felt it on python
Apr 3, 2019 6:51 AM - theLumberJack: i write a lot of scripts on python at work and i just do my best to make sure they only rely on standard modules
Apr 3, 2019 7:20 AM - VintagePC: These were standard modules (pip/pipenv)... But yeah, any structured langauge is fine for learning; it's more about the concepts and structure than the syntax specifics
Apr 3, 2019 7:20 AM - VintagePC: once you figure that out it's not too difficult to work with other languages after you learn the syntax differences
Apr 3, 2019 7:28 AM - theLumberJack: trying to manage virtual environments?
Apr 3, 2019 9:16 AM - Statboy: I'm just trying to learn something useful
Apr 3, 2019 9:22 AM - theLumberJack: i meant vintage, i was curious about his pip/pipenv problens
Apr 3, 2019 9:22 AM - theLumberJack: problems
Apr 3, 2019 5:23 PM - VintagePC: yeah, need to have python3 and 2.7 co-exist
Apr 3, 2019 6:07 PM - VaultBot: yes that one
Apr 3, 2019 6:07 PM - Statboy: 5 minutes into the online video the python instructor goes "there's 2 types python version 2 is better but obsolete, version 3 is worse but is used more, so forget that python 2 exists"
Apr 3, 2019 7:22 PM - VaultBot: smokey can suck a big fat one ? we have serious discussion for that exact reason
Apr 3, 2019 7:22 PM - VintagePC: heh
Apr 3, 2019 7:22 PM - VintagePC: sounds about right
 
Apr 4, 2019 7:29 AM - Hexalan: oh boy are we talking about python
Apr 4, 2019 7:29 AM - Hexalan: il ove python
Apr 4, 2019 7:30 AM - Hexalan: your python instructor sounds like a grognard
Apr 4, 2019 9:33 AM - theLumberJack: have to agree with hex on that
Apr 4, 2019 9:56 AM - Statboy: Hell im a grognard, Civ 4 was the best, Borderlands 2 was the best, the original ratchet and clank trilogy was the best
Apr 4, 2019 9:58 AM - Statboy: The original looney toons is better than anything on tv right now
Apr 4, 2019 11:48 AM - TimeCrush: Hoop n' Stick was best - all we needed.
Apr 4, 2019 11:59 AM - Statboy: Damn straight, and while were on the subject why aren't we using DnD version 1
Apr 4, 2019 1:01 PM - Statboy: just because something is new doesn't mean its better, and just because your unwilling to change doesn't mean new is bad. As ever extreme's are bad
Apr 4, 2019 2:25 PM - Hexalan: true
Apr 4, 2019 2:26 PM - Hexalan: but also python3 is great
 
Apr 8, 2019 6:37 PM - Splyons1993: i actually got back from dinner way earlier than expected, so i COULD do PF tonight, but its super last minute so i understand if folks made other plans
Apr 8, 2019 6:58 PM - Statboy: LJ wasn't going to make it, and we haven't heard from ickodus in a while
Apr 8, 2019 6:59 PM - Splyons1993: fair enough!
 
Apr 9, 2019 at 12:58 PM - Reechard: I told Ickodus no session tonight, and I didn't even see this until now sooooo that's a no.
Apr 9, 2019 at 12:58 PM - Reechard: but next week Ickodus is good :-D
Apr 9, 2019 at 4:18 PM - Statboy: Excellent
 
Apr 10, 2019 at 1:44 PM - Hexalan: remember the time some random furry showed up and then got mad because no one responded to his unsolicited application to join a game
Apr 10, 2019 at 1:45 PM - TimeCrush: Man, we need more of that - that was fun
Apr 10, 2019 at 6:57 PM - VintagePC: welp, thanks to pathfinder I knew the answer to today's final jeopardy question
Apr 10, 2019 at 7:46 PM - Statboy: you mean you knew the question to the answer
Apr 10, 2019 at 7:48 PM - VintagePC: I'll take "being a smartass" for 600, Alex.
Apr 10, 2019 at 8:08 PM - Statboy: What was the answer?
Apr 10, 2019 at 8:59 PM - VintagePC: "This VF4 member likes to :stir: and nitpick technicalities in shoutbox with senior VF4 staff" :p
