RatherLargeToad: that or Gremlins
Strebenherz: It totally is
Chaucer345: I do like that R.L. Stein describes his job as "scaring children for a living."

RandomTrivia:
DoodlestheGreat: Hi ho.
DigitalSeahorse:
Strebenherz: creepydoll's greenscreen bit looks slightly haunted, it's very appropriate
JollyGee29: Boozer is Slag Heap
Strebenherz: How's your day been Alex?
ButButTheJesus: hi folks, how's the stalkering
DoodlestheGreat: Spooder.
ButButTheJesus: FACK me that's good
DigitalSeahorse:
JKBalch: Ah, el spidre giganto
CaptainCoriale: i don't like how it just vwooped into the ceiling
ButButTheJesus: I hope its not foreshadowing rad-spiders
ButButTheJesus: they wouldn't do that right
JollyGee29: Can maybe store some sausage inside your stomach
DigitalSeahorse:
sephyhallow: Every time you see a spider: grenade!
TheAwkes: This scanner is just the absolute height of 1992 technology.
JollyGee29: The internet seems to think the Veles has a 50m range
Strebenherz: so like a nokia, it'll live a hell of a drop
KakuEpsilon: Did I miss a stream? What happened to our round dial detector?
KakuEpsilon: That was wef
KakuEpsilon: Wednesday?
Juliamon: Thursday
JollyGee29: I really like the aesthetic of the Bear Detector
Juliamon: things got moved around to accommodate the streamer event
TheAwkes: If you're into hunting for artifacts, the 100m range is a great early alert. But once you have a good EDC set they're not great value and their respawn points are in fixed anomaly fields you can just go straight back to without having to stumble around.
KakuEpsilon: Oh bupkis I will have to watch that after this. I didn't get notified after monday's strem
DoodlestheGreat: And upward.
DigitalSeahorse: looks like a witch's shack
DigitalSeahorse: needs a kitty tho
ButButTheJesus: Type: Mercedes?
KakuEpsilon: This black detector looks like it had a crank ripped clean off
Natural_Ones_Only: alright, what'd i miss
DigitalSeahorse: red light district
DigitalSeahorse:
Natural_Ones_Only: it even tells you the types of anomalies?
DigitalSeahorse: an orange
KakuEpsilon: Glare: warning do not eat the delicious-loking anomaly orange
MAPBoardgames: How would you test it?
Natural_Ones_Only: Step 1: Create the Zone in real life
DigitalSeahorse: lol
DigitalSeahorse: test on uranium glass I guess
MAPBoardgames: So my head canon is that STALKER and Pacific Drive are in the same world.
KakuEpsilon: Builds a fake detector, discovers anomalies are real by accident because he is that cracked at building stuff sounds like an Alex adventure to me.
DigitalSeahorse: hey you polterguys!
Natural_Ones_Only: skiff is looking pretty tired idk
Natural_Ones_Only: kept alive by radiation, vodka, will, and vodka
DigitalSeahorse: Skiff looks more like a skuff these days
DigitalSeahorse: were those grey things papers?
KakuEpsilon: @natural_ones_only so, a Russian soldier?
Natural_Ones_Only: A *ukranian* soldier
KakuEpsilon: Not enough Sallow
Natural_Ones_Only: No Skifs literally an ex-
Natural_Ones_Only: ukranian
Natural_Ones_Only: marine
Natural_Ones_Only: Do we have God's Caliber?
seanmrwick: I'm liking the loadout so far, Alex! I see the Bizon along with some kind of custom made sniper rifle
seanmrwick: what kind of rifle do you have?
seanmrwick: I've never seen this kind of rifle before
JollyGee29: Can probably store the Bear Detector
seanmrwick: the Bizon SMG I've seen in games like Killzone 2 and 3
fiinnnaaaaannnnnnnn: I learn so much lore about things I never knew about on every stream
seanmrwick: I've actually wanted something like that as an Airsoft AEG for a Helghast officer attire
Natural_Ones_Only: Like a helix perhaps?
fiinnnaaaaannnnnnnn: does that make the container a cylinder or
seanmrwick: well the magazine is kind of cylindrical I think
TheAwkes: I really think single fire is the way to go in this game. Just match the weapon damage/penetration stat to the enemy you're facing as best you can to conserve lead and pad your pocket book.
JadedCynic: they're great...as long as they work. And when the don't work, they're a pain.
JollyGee29: This is a decent time to go around and do side stuff
DigitalSeahorse: "there is no loading in the white zone"
DigitalSeahorse: "there is so loading in the white zone!"
KakuEpsilon: Too bad there's no duct tape in this game or you could just duct tape your two detectors together and never need to swap them
seanmrwick: I know I brought up Killzone before but the StA-11 Submachine gun looks like it has an Uzi body and a cylindrical magazine like the Bizon
DigitalSeahorse: and there is only killing in the killzone
DigitalSeahorse: zamboos
MAPBoardgames: You want zombies? This is how we get zombies, people!
seanmrwick: @DigitalSeahorse indeed! I'm somehow familiar with some of the weapons from the game because I have a copy of Killzone 2,3 and Shadowfall
DigitalSeahorse: wooo
DigitalSeahorse: shop class?
DigitalSeahorse: what do?
ghyllnox: Sweet new detector
Mcdingles: maybe shop class bc of all the bolts connected to it?
Natural_Ones_Only: Physical and bleed resistance would be good in shop class
DigitalSeahorse: I seee
DigitalSeahorse: that would be handy
DigitalSeahorse: grow an extra hand
ShaneLeeAtk: But the Artifact shattered the carbide teeth on the saw blade instead
seanmrwick: so I totally classified the wrong type of trooper for my wintertime attire. I meant to say "Helghast Shock trooper", not Submachine gunner
seanmrwick: because the shock troopers are the troopers with the Bizon
JollyGee29: What is this location called?
TheAwkes: I don't remember this one. Can you get onto the Western roof from the surrounding wall?
ghyllnox: That's not where you are
Natural_Ones_Only: How about from the top of the bridge/garage?
JollyGee29: That isn't where your marker was
ghyllnox: You're the green arrow, right?
DigitalSeahorse: this game doesn't let us jump while carrying big things in our hands?
ShaneLeeAtk: !shop
DigitalSeahorse: heheheheh
TheDevil_Risen: Howdy Alex, how goes it?
fiinnnaaaaannnnnnnn: the running animation with items in both hands looks so comical to my eyes
Natural_Ones_Only narrator's voice: It was just that easy
Larkonus: Parkour!
ghyllnox: \o/
TheAwkes:
The biggest value of clearing a stash is always getting it off your map. 
DigitalSeahorse: yay
ghyllnox: Sounds like a mod?
DigitalSeahorse:
ghyllnox: o7
TheDevil_Risen:
goombalax: glass ankles
DigitalSeahorse:
KeytarCat: Might be nice to have an "eat all" button
JadedCynic: Gourmand dot exe
Natural_Ones_Only: Does the game have mods?
TheDevil_Risen: hahaha
KakuEpsilon: Fallout has that
Anubis169:
Natural_Ones_Only: We're just hiding 
DigitalSeahorse: vore mod suggests you eat like a cannibal
JadedCynic: mundivore
DigitalSeahorse: even eat the zombies
Natural_Ones_Only: Ah! Mods!
Scy_Anide: The first mod I installed was to skip the shaders loading every time the game launches.
JadedCynic:
mere 'omnivores' simply CAN eat anything they find; 'mundivores' DO eat everything they find 
JollyGee29: The only mod I have is one that makes the gun names all correct
Scy_Anide: Just makes it faster to load into the game. That shaders loading is only supposed to happen the first time you launch the game if I remember right.
DigitalSeahorse: ah morning dove
ghyllnox:
The solution being to shoot the plank off from outside the window
KeytarCat: Mafreengun
JollyGee29: None of the free ones are especially nearby
DigitalSeahorse: and then you picked up some more?
KeytarCat: They may have power armor, but you have the stubborn stoicism of not being connected to your own nerves!
JadedCynic: "it not perfect system."
ButButTheJesus: 1 Metric Shit-ton Bullat
Mashamino: just loaded
KeytarCat: Never runs out of skif
DoodlestheGreat: Good plan.
JadedCynic:
nissan187: <message deleted>The Viltrum empire Events,chill,or roleplay The viltrum empire needs YOU https://discord.gg/AzC88u6M
JadedCynic: smart thinking
DoodlestheGreat: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
insane_42:
Hey Alex 
TheDevil_Risen:
welcome back Alex 
insane_42: yikes
JadedCynic:
dude's just STYLIN' on you 
JadedCynic: oh THAT might explain it
insane_42: gj
otakon17: IS THAT A MOTION TRACKER?!
otakon17: does it do the iconic beep?
otakon17: are you still using the same armor from last time?
otakon17: I figured you'd have found an upgrade by now
insane_42: aliens style motion tracker
otakon17: Dragonballs?!
JadedCynic:
so, you gonna ♫ teach me how to Duga? ♫ 
otakon17: the log?
otakon17: you got it
DigitalSeahorse: the motherload?
otakon17: BANDITOS!
JadedCynic: you got it - the anomaly was the 'false artifacts'
JollyGee29: Yo, you got a Hypercube out of this? Radical
ButButTheJesus: Cube 2: Hypercube
TheAwkes: The Zone lies.
otakon17: It's a trap!
insane_42: Alex, have you ever played Aliens: Fireteam Elite?
JadedCynic: they disappear when you grab the real one
otakon17: dude you about to die
TheDevil_Risen: that seems like it hurt
Strebenherz: it's fiine just cram some more delish canned meat
JadedCynic: thankfully this detector show's ALL of the artifact readings and not just the nearest...
otakon17: the hell
MAPBoardgames: Psychic enemies can be a real headache.
Strebenherz: wait, was that all a hallucination?
otakon17: how the hell can you THINK BULLETS into existence?
Strebenherz: WHAT
JadedCynic: @Strebenherz yep
Strebenherz: this game got layers of nonsense
otakon17: what if you kill no guys
Natural_Ones_Only: I thought we we had an upgrade to stop that
otakon17: like, are there tranq guns int this?
otakon17: lol
otakon17: I mean ones tha don't inflict PERMANENT naptime
Cptasparagus: I just rewatched Moonbase Battlegrounds, very good stuff
otakon17: anyway I hate to say it I dozed off earlier while Ian play Everhood 2, how did that go?
otakon17: also neat it detects anamolies too
JadedCynic: I mean, they way the game starts, you no kill anyone, you die pretty quick
KeytarCat: MOOOSE
otakon17: the hell
Larkonus: Rad-moose? That's terrifying.
otakon17: INTO ONE OF WHAT?!
otakon17: IS THAT A GODDAMN BIBLICALLY ACCURATE MOOSE!?
DigitalSeahorse: haven't seen tranquilizers in this outside of cut scenes
JadedCynic: technically we didn't kill the last one, we helped that hunter take it down...
ButButTheJesus: @otakon17 nah, not enough eyes
TheDevil_Risen: what the Moose?
otakon17: and jinx'd himself
otakon17: it looks like a caribou
JadedCynic: @TheDevil_Risen yes, the Moose
DigitalSeahorse: it's Danger ELK
otakon17: dude it's not worth it that thing has tanked like 3 magazines
DigitalSeahorse: the campiest of Camp Caribous
JadedCynic: it's a european Elk (which is about the same size and closely related to the north american moose)
otakon17: FOUR magazines
otakon17: sad puppy noises no
DigitalSeahorse: oh but every bullet that shoots dogs is a tranquilizer
DigitalSeahorse: decidedly by me
Cptasparagus: the wolves "he cant possibly have more bullets"
otakon17: time to retreat
otakon17: do a speen
KakuEpsilon: Need a mod to make the sogs just make human noises including dying with a loud "fuck"
DigitalSeahorse: and the ones that shoot the big lions/tigers/panthers
otakon17: @KakuEpsilon would be less traumatic, I hate hearing dog pain noises they hurt my soul
otakon17: at the top?
otakon17: what someone to check the net?
DigitalSeahorse: there might be a mod that gets rid of the dog wimpers
otakon17: uh oh party time
otakon17: that sounds like a bear
KeytarCat: There's a mod that disables dogs's attacks
JadedCynic: heck, that'd work - if they don't attack, we don't need to shoot 'em so they won't whimper
DigitalSeahorse: A
DigitalSeahorse: for AIR
otakon17: no shoot da puppers
otakon17: I hope they have ammo
JadedCynic: oh right, this is the army, isn't it?
otakon17: you need that helmet
JadedCynic:
that's the advantage of fighting dudes instead of mutants; they have some ammo (usually not the type your using, tho )
DigitalSeahorse: owee
otakon17: the truck is better cover
8 raiders from Foxmar320 have joined!
JadedCynic: at least they're firing tracers
otakon17: I hate it when enemies can see you PERFECTLY through foilage
otakon17: head go splat
otakon17: four heads go splat
otakon17: five go splat
JadedCynic:
see me? that's fine, I just hate when they have AP ammo that can go through 'cover' like a truck or a brick wall 
KeytarCat: Counting with Skif! 🎵
otakon17: KABOOM
DigitalSeahorse: hehe
ghyllnox: Yeah I'd say so
Strebenherz: cleanup in aisle five
otakon17: now TO CLAIM THE LOOT
DigitalSeahorse:
DigitalSeahorse:
DigitalSeahorse: now they quaking
Strebenherz: they might be dead xD
Strebenherz: or not
otakon17: I tihnk you got him
otakon17: you got him
otakon17: WHAT
JadedCynic: NOW you got him
otakon17: NOW you got him
otakon17: jinx
otakon17: I want a STALKER type game but with RPG leveling mechanics
otakon17: but the loooooot
ghyllnox: Peww
DigitalSeahorse:
DigitalSeahorse:
DigitalSeahorse:
TheAwkes: There are a couple spots, Duga included, that have one-shot border snipers spawn.
hesterbyrde subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 59 months, currently on a 58 month streak!
hesterbyrde: I don't usually get to catch these live but I've been loving these streams in the vods. Thanks for all the irradiated fun, Alex.
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, hesterbyrde! (Today's storm count: 8)
otakon17: you need better armor man, you get shredded
JadedCynic: another sniper; 3rd tower past this one in front of you?
JadedCynic: whew
otakon17: so is there bullet drop in this?
otakon17: "YOU SHOT ME!"
MAPBoardgames: could be both?
otakon17: "IN THE ARM!"
Cptasparagus: its actually a large 3d printer and they just pop out of the floor on demand
otakon17: you need to loot these snipers ASAP man they got good armor and weapons
Anubis169: It's nuts o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep
DigitalSeahorse: someone climb up to replace them?
Anubis169: hi Alex et al
ghyllnox: They might have respawned, but that's not a guarantee of your mental health
otakon17:
you must be zen, wait for them to cross your hairs not the other way around 
Larkonus: They're a witch!
Cptasparagus: his name is Alex, dont hurt him!
JadedCynic: I would NOT put it past The Monolith to be 'printing' minions...
Anubis169:
DigitalSeahorse: twitch, STOP taking me out of this typing box mid sentence!
Anubis169: Stop stabbing a guy in the dick!
ghyllnox: Goddamn dude
Natural_Ones_Only: Eurotrash!
JadedCynic: geez this guy is dressed in TANK ARMOR?!?
JollyGee29: I never experimented with the snipers near Duga, but it seems like they might be immortal. I just learned to avoid them
otakon17: he's gltiched
Anubis169: DigitalSeahorse: It does that for you too?
DigitalSeahorse: frickin RUDE, twitch!
otakon17: attack the crotch for massive damage!
DigitalSeahorse: yes
Larkonus: "You should have killed me when you had the chance!"
DigitalSeahorse:
JadedCynic: with armored targets, you hit the joints where armor plates can't sit
Strebenherz: jesus
otakon17: don't forget to unload their guns
JadedCynic:
ButButTheJesus: !SIR
JollyGee29: I discovered that it's best to give Duga a wide berth
ghyllnox: Immortal snipers with grenades
otakon17: yeah I"m looking this up, something is weird
Strebenherz: YES, yes you can
JadedCynic: gotta GET to the looting phase first...
TheAwkes: It's a border zone disincentive. The game drops on-shot kills in a few places.
Strebenherz: What even hit you there? goddamn
Cptasparagus: @Strebenherz different sniper
Mushbie: Ahh slav jank
JadedCynic: he's shooting the tower strut
DigitalSeahorse: you still have your piercing?
otakon17: okay I can't find JACK about this
otakon17: take what loot you can and run?
KeytarCat: If this is a map-edge thing, will they just not ever die?
otakon17: don't forget to kill the other guy first
Anubis169: WOW
Anubis169: from downtown
otakon17: okay this has to be a bug
HadesLeprechaun: RUDE
DigitalSeahorse: dang
TheAwkes: The game is telling you this place is not for you.
Strebenherz: the middle finger of god sent you on your way
otakon17: FROM WHERE?!
otakon17: also is that 144 deaths now?
Strebenherz: @otakon17 From where? fantastic question. next question
Anubis169: there's no deathcount i think
otakon17: his BOOTS were in the air that man is dead
JollyGee29: It's probably wise to just go around. I believe this is just a not-wall wall
KeytarCat: p sure the death count is in the death screen, but I don't know how loading affects it
Anubis169: that's annoying, he could shoot straight
otakon17: >they have perfect accuracy with full auto
Strebenherz: anomaly sniper?
Strebenherz: can that happen?
JadedCynic: @KeytarCat 145...
Anubis169: what is it, one resurrects the otehr?
TheAwkes: @KeytarCat quick loads don't count. You can load in mid air of a fall to your death!
Juliamon: Please don't count. We removed the death counter from LRRbot for a reason.
otakon17: Serpentine pattern Sepertine!
Anubis169: that headshot was a flesh wound
Cptasparagus: @Anubis169 there IS flesh in there
otakon17: okay I'm checking Steam
JollyGee29: This spot is just meant to be impassible
TheAwkes: They're the no-no zone police.
Strebenherz: Could something refive them?
Strebenherz: oh god there's grunts in the walls too
Strebenherz: revive^ not refive
KeytarCat: Steam confirms this is a narrative locking mechanic
TheAwkes: When there's a mission here, they'll act like normal enemies. When there's not they're the no-no zone.
JollyGee29: You need to go around this spot
otakon17: okay dude you might be in a quest progression locked area
Anubis169: yo dude that was badass
KeytarCat: Like the other place had a wonky locked door, this has fucked up snipers
otakon17: basically story says you can't get through here
JollyGee29: Probably a wide circle, too
Anubis169: so that sniper thing clipping Alex is literally a magic bullet from nowhere
JollyGee29: I wandered over here very early and had a similar experience
otakon17: like how Ghost of Tsushima had certain Mongol camps just MACHINEGUN YOU IN THE AIR with arrows
Anubis169: to stop sequence breaking?
DigitalSeahorse: one of those "supposed to lose" things
otakon17: this is stupid and bad game design
Strebenherz: Yee olde stalker "hippity hoppity frick off our property"
DigitalSeahorse: sort of
TheAwkes: If you're good an lucky, you can loot the fellas on the ground, but it's hardly worth the headache.
sephyhallow: there are actually 30 men in that tower all standing very close together
otakon17: you know when they didn't want you to be in a place in Fallout New Vegas?
HadesLeprechaun: more like "we don't want you here yet, but can't set up invisible walls, go away"
otakon17: they put a bunch of Deathclaws and Cazadores there
otakon17: but the LOOT man
otakon17: ALL THAT LOOT
Strebenherz: @otakon17 You CAN walk straight to new vegas from the start of the game, don't mind the deathclaws
Anubis169: isn't deathclaw a Fallout thing?
Strebenherz: just uhh... run real fast or something
Strebenherz: yeeeep
JadedCynic: @Anubis169 yes, they're referring to new vegas
Strebenherz: big cranky lizards with big claws and teeth that like to hug
otakon17: can you camp until morning or something
frank_the_great: Not with that attitude
otakon17: they're HEAVILY mutated Jacksons Chameleons turned into living weapons
otakon17: they're around 12 feet tall(or 4 meters for the canucks) with claws capable of shredding tank armor like it was spreading cheese
otakon17: THE HELL was that
otakon17: did you just get *squeezed*
otakon17: was the anomaly trying to milk you?
DigitalSeahorse:
KeytarCat: Anomaly does you a displacement!
otakon17: finally friendlies
otakon17: all he has is ONE medpack?!
DigitalSeahorse: toilet room beer
otakon17: mmmm wodka
JadedCynic:
@otakon17 I don't see a lotta people making the trip to here to stock him up
otakon17: @JadedCynic good point
otakon17: did you even pick up that stuff in the tub?
otakon17: suddenly pipe
DigitalSeahorse:
otakon17: dude you gotta stop speaking things into being
otakon17: cna you check the body?
ButButTheJesus: fuk you, glass!
Anubis169: no window unbroken
DigitalSeahorse: ya like dalls?
Mashamino: Vandalism of Chernobyl
otakon17: these SEALED CRATES having exactly ONE thing in them is the most unrealistic thing about this game
KeytarCat: That sounded healthy
otakon17: literally just threaded the needle
otakon17: that's...probably not a good sign
otakon17: new sidequest unlocked
DigitalSeahorse: none of them had machine guns?
otakon17: A controller?
JollyGee29: I feel kinda bad for that dude. He presumably had to wipe out hit entire squad as they got Zom'd
otakon17: maybe time to save before going further in?
DigitalSeahorse:
otakon17: and you can hear them beating on the door
goombalax: pressure cookers
Natural_Ones_Only: meth
DigitalSeahorse:
hmm 
otakon17: now take their loot! they look like pressure cookers
Mushbie: Industrial pressure cooker
goombalax: if they were modern I'd say sous vide machines
otakon17: mmm doctor sausage
otakon17: it's a campus
otakon17: so they're probably industrial pressure cookers yeah
DigitalSeahorse: I doubt they would be making ice cream
KeytarCat: That's why I have sausages
otakon17: bc it's supposed to be good for you
otakon17: there's still something here
ghyllnox:
DigitalSeahorse: darker it gets here the louder those white background ads are
otakon17: goddamn how are you constantly getting bled out
JollyGee29: I was looking away but I heard "lewd" and "Homestuck" so I assume there was a bucket
otakon17: *one little nick* You are BLEEDING OUT
otakon17: sounds like they're having a party too
DigitalSeahorse:
they're not rubber bullets
otakon17: surprised you aren't stripping the guns of bullets at least
otakon17: it's a shame you can only carry so much in this game, I'd be stripping every damn body to the skiivies for loot
otakon17: like you need to carry several tons of gear with you just to SURVIVE
otakon17: I assume there's a locked door nearby
otakon17: you got a key off of Kostas
otakon17: I bet he's fucked off
otakon17: didn't you just loot a ton of energy drinks?
otakon17: this was someone's home
otakon17: especially as far as this place goes
DigitalSeahorse: light giving off fireworks
otakon17: goddamn Monolithians
otakon17: probably not
DigitalSeahorse: how you know those are the bad guys?
DigitalSeahorse: where's the other us?
ghyllnox: There's also a little skull in the HUD
KeytarCat: (also the skulls on the compass show quest enemies)
goombalax: shooting at you? thats just a texas handshake
DigitalSeahorse: oh
TheDevil_Risen: loll
ButButTheJesus: is it?
Cptasparagus: I lived there for 5 years recently
JollyGee29: I'm Kansan and can stereotype, do I count?
ButButTheJesus: @Cptasparagus were you ever slapped with beef
TheDevil_Risen: oops
TheAinMAP:
frank_the_great: Rip o7
Cptasparagus: @ButButTheJesus no, but we also didnt shake hands much because of covid lol
otakon17: take a drink?
frank_the_great: You do a pretty great job at not dying, all things considered
otakon17: anyway have fun, I'm out for the evening got errands in the morning; toodles
ButButTheJesus: @otakon17 toodles

ButButTheJesus: does gauss mean magnets?
JadedCynic: electro-magentic railgun
JollyGee29: Gauss rifles in this context are magnetic coil guns
Natural_Ones_Only: Ehh, no time like the present?
DigitalSeahorse: did I miss anything after the break?
Cptasparagus: rail guns = magnetic fields, gauss guns = magnets pulling objects into each other (think the desk toy with the clacky balls)

JollyGee29: I think there is a Journalist's Stash near here that you could use to drop stuff off?
Natural_Ones_Only: The heck's a chocolate bar artifact do?
DigitalSeahorse: seems like it would boost food effects
KeytarCat: rail guns run current through a projectile (and the rails) and the energy fields force the projectile along the rails. One of the limiting factors is power, because each shot needs to create a *massive* force almost instantaneously. The other is that the rails degrade super fast because the projectile is forced both into them and across them. The rails don;t last more than like three shots
DigitalSeahorse: I would not eat it tho
Natural_Ones_Only: can the mutant throw back our grenades?
Mushbie: But can the mutant throw it back?
JollyGee29: You can try to run around and grab the guns, yea.
ghyllnox: \o/
JollyGee29: There is a generator to turn on for the button
DigitalSeahorse: button
KeytarCat: A gauss gun, or a coil gun, uses a sequence of high power electromagnets to pull a projectile along the barrel. They're more reliable than rail guns bc the forces are less direct on the mechanism, but there's a limit to how big they can be bc they have to be synced to horribly tight tolerances to maintain acceleration. I did a dive on this like 6 years ago so take it with a grain of salt
JollyGee29: "Guide the player with light"
DigitalSeahorse:
hmm
JollyGee29: Short-barrel AS-VAL
JollyGee29: Might grab that suit and stick it in the box too
JadedCynic: @KeytarCat hey, those are our emotional-support sosig - keep them under our suit like an extra layer of armor, of dried meat
DigitalSeahorse: so it doesn't despawn
DigitalSeahorse: always run with your knife upright
JollyGee29: This next part of the mission is probably longer than 30 minutes
DigitalSeahorse: so you can fall and stab your eyes
ghyllnox: Shop #2
ghyllnox: It stacked with your other one
KeytarCat: Would that you could upgrade artifacts by stacking them
DigitalSeahorse: now we have 2 levels of shop education
DigitalSeahorse:
even the glass shards know we shouldn't be running with knives
Natural_Ones_Only: I wonder how many rads we can take rn in sieverts
Natural_Ones_Only: theres grays, sieverts, rads, curies, any others?
JollyGee29: We have a decent suit and a handful of artifacts, we can probably go hug the Elephant's Foot
JadedCynic:
sometimes they measure different things, like Watts vs Joules...whom some like to conflate
Mushbie: Roentgen
TheAwkes: Roentgen
DigitalSeahorse: about 1 micro curie in a smoke detector I think
KeytarCat: This car has a stash
Mushbie: 3.6 Roentgen
Natural_Ones_Only: sievert is the SI one right
DigitalSeahorse: if I remember correctly
DigitalSeahorse:
Mushbie: Grays are also SI but for absorbed dose
KeytarCat: I also like bed
LiveFaust:
No, sievert is Sv. 
DigitalSeahorse: weeeeeeee
ButButTheJesus: sleeping next to someone gives you about half a banan
DigitalSeahorse: beeees
Natural_Ones_Only: Elephants foot is about 10^26 bananas if my math is right
ghyllnox: Bees!
DigitalSeahorse:
TheAwkes: Just your normal everyday murmuration of debris.
sephyhallow: A murmuration of ... bad
Cptasparagus: you could measure trace radioactivity in a pepper and convert to Scoville
LiveFaust: That's how actual starlings behave in their flocks.
KeytarCat: eepy week
ButButTheJesus: an airplane flight is several bunches of banans
DigitalSeahorse: eepy Alex
LiveFaust: They'll fly like that, and it seems to scare off larger birds because they look like one BIG thing.
Natural_Ones_Only: Mmmm, radon
ButButTheJesus: ze blaggole?
Strebenherz: wait what about living inside stone b uildings?
JollyGee29: Ooh, I never noticed that teleporter before. I always ended up being here at night
TheAwkes: A few kilometers less atmosphere between you and the harsh realities of space.
Strebenherz: huh
Natural_Ones_Only: Trace amounts of uranium?
Strebenherz: something to be at all concerned about or is it more just "this is a sliight blip on the meter"
Cptasparagus: peanut butter emits .12 picocuries / gram, so you could measure in NUT
Transmuted_Elf: that was rude
ghyllnox: To death
DigitalSeahorse: that leads to death
DigitalSeahorse: lol
Natural_Ones_Only: @Strebenherz Not any more than flying on a plane
Mashamino: well, maybe that sign is accurate
Driosenth: The sign says death
DoomBringerIL: how LONG is this game?
Genie_M: These houses always remind me of my aunt's home - they are the exact same design
DigitalSeahorse: it's a trap?
TheAwkes: You may notice a few bodies on the roof under the other end of it.
Mashamino:
oh!
DigitalSeahorse: xD
WookieCookie64: Just another day.
Mashamino: environmental storytelling
matthaus_c subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 54 months!
matthaus_c: aw shit did I accidentally fall in the portal that makes me subscribe
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, matthaus_c! (Today's storm count: 10)
Natural_Ones_Only: You ascend to Slav heaven (more vodka)
ghyllnox: Depends, is the vodka magic?
Natural_Ones_Only: All vodka is magic
DigitalSeahorse: irl you get brain stem failure
LordZarano: When Fukushima had just happened there was someone that went on a business trip to Japan and their company gave them a radiation monitor. But instead of turning it on just when they were Japan they turned it on before the trip started, and in the graph they posted the radiation from the intercontinental flights was WAY higher than when they were in/around Fukushima
DoomBringerIL: is this the longest running game in play it forward?
Natural_Ones_Only: CT scans as well are no joke
Transmuted_Elf: based on the coloration of things in this area you are in closer to the start of the game?
lightfut: Bg3 had to be as long
drrek0: Baldur's Gate 3?
Natural_Ones_Only: yes
Strebenherz: yes
KeytarCat: I'm having a great time
DigitalSeahorse: yes
sephyhallow: Very much so
Juliamon: I could watch these streams forever
matthaus_c: it's a good stream bront
ghyllnox: Absolutely
DigitalSeahorse: I love this stream
KeytarCat: It's one of the vods I seek out
Strebenherz: the game has proven it likes to absolutely mess with you, and you are as ever an entertaining watch
KakuEpsilon: Hell yeah Alex streams are always great
LiveFaust: I've been enjoying it, though I usually have to count on the yubtub for it.
ButButTheJesus: yes I am here for it, I'm also catching up on the stalker vods I missed while I play balatro, I'm very happy to have this
ghyllnox: The M/W streams unfortunately overlap with life stuff, but I catch the Sunday ones
Natural_Ones_Only: Hearing You nerd about guns, radiation, and tech while also being chased by 3 vampires is wonderful
JollyGee29: I am very much enjoying your STALKER streams, Alex.
DigitalSeahorse: is belatro the gambling thing?
TheMerricat:
The longest PIF on the wiki is Heather's Baulder's Gate, you've still got at least 10 more streams to match her.
Natural_Ones_Only: STALKER Hotub stream when?
DigitalSeahorse: suspiciously placed cans
matthaus_c:
the fan art is out of control, the game does not go for titillating so much 
KakuEpsilon: The word Balatro means Joker so yes sexy joker
KeytarCat: It's the specifically not gambling thing
lightfut: Just uses poker mechanics for scoring
Strebenherz: @Natural_Ones_Only yeah like the stalker equivalent of steve irwin. nuclear history while alex runs from piggus
ghyllnox: @DigitalSeahorse The cards and the making certain hands yes, there was a kerfuffle about how it received a spicy rating for "gambling themes"
KeytarCat: This PiF sorta reminds me of Beej's Betrayal and Krondor. Fun and silly game stuff backed by musings on the themes and history
KeytarCat: at
Strebenherz: you're very enthusiastic about the subject of nuclear history. it's endearing/cool to hear someone just dork out
JollyGee29: Brains are silly organs and like to misbehave
Strebenherz: ALSO IT'S WILD
TheDevil_Risen: those flashbangs are painful in HDR
ghyllnox: In that case: I like your overalls/machinist aesthetic, I don't see it often and you wear it well
TheDevil_Risen:
and yes I have been enjoying watching you play this Alex, you're entertaining and even though you missed a couple of compliments I gave you last stream idm haha
DoodlestheGreat: I saw your wizard hat last week. It was very fetching.
TheDevil_Risen: another death squad?
ghyllnox: Apparently you have a reputation
LiveFaust: THEY have Yakety Sax vibes.
DigitalSeahorse: how far are we from that building we're supposed to pass?
Natural_Ones_Only: Are monolithians not simply slightly smarter zombies?
matthaus_c: monos are yassified zombies
KeytarCat: Their brains aren't melted, they've just been brainwashed
LiveFaust: Captain Kiwi, nooooo!
Natural_Ones_Only: Is the game still getting updates?
Larkonus: Once the modding community has done modding community things.
ghyllnox: Ball!
ghyllnox: Spicy ball
DigitalSeahorse: ball trying it's best to be a demon core
JollyGee29: Apparently part of the reason the original trilogy had so many mods was that the engine's source code got leaked or something?
Anubis169: oh it's been out for a while
KeytarCat: What's the antenna-looking sensor's specialty?
Juliamon: Long range
KeytarCat: Rockin
KeytarCat: Strictly better is boring
Strebenherz: i've noticed that about this game, it sounds like there's niches for everything
KeytarCat: Oh hey, 30 guys just standing really close!
ghyllnox: They're just very good friends
JollyGee29:
Fresh A-Life spawn 
the_friends_we_made: The best camoflage is standing inside two of your friends

Juliamon: A+ first time post
Anubis169: the_friends_we_made: You win an entire internet. A whole one.
DigitalSeahorse: spider corps, spider corps
Strebenherz:
250
DigitalSeahorse: lies there just like any other corps
Strebenherz: oh god they really did multiply, i missed the multiply moment
KeytarCat: swap medkits before we go?
JollyGee29: Oh, do you want bandages?
DigitalSeahorse:
ghyllnox: Can we get blackout drunk?
MAPBoardgames: take one down, pass it around. 11 bottles of vodka.
DigitalSeahorse: mixing your alcohols
ghyllnox: This still doesn't look as bad as when we did 3 shots of magic vodka
Strebenherz: drink enough vodka and you wake up in skyrim
DoodlestheGreat: And get even drunker
