Mr_Horrible: I'll miss fighting game
Mr_Horrible: "nobody goes to locals because TNS exists" goofy
Strebenherz: i mean the number of times i've heard someone go on about how something has killed mtg and mtg is... still going
Strebenherz: yeah that says more about your local than anything
Mai_Andra:
"my local!" 
saucemaster5000: that's a wild statement to hear coming back from my store
AceGun_: Luckily, most of the discourse ended up just being about how cool Tong is, and showing him lots of appreciation.
Strebenherz: "nobody goes to the lgs any more, mtg arena killed it" maybe your lgs was stinky idk
TXC2:
Strebenherz Rosewater once wrote an article on the 5 times people said "magic was dead" one of them was from 1998 
Mai_Andra: Sometimes you just gotta drive across town for your local.
Strebenherz: @TXC2 beautiful
fairieswithboots: Didn't they say MTG is dead for about 33 years?
LowUpsideCJ: ggs good stream thanks for killing fighting games
TXC2: fairieswithboots pretty much
AceGun_: "ew, that's a Discord fighter..." - a person that is on Discord 24/7
Mai_Andra:
You will surely not regret playing online tournament and driving to local the same day. 
fairieswithboots:
Nelly, you got so good at the game! Been a while since the last time checking in and you got so much better. A pleasure to watch 
LurkerSpine: Evergreen
TXC2:
"when you learn something new, you become worse" so never learn, got it 
Mr_Horrible: a whiff punish is almost literally the RDJ Sherlock "Discombobulate."

BlindPathfinder: are the endtimes upon us yet?
TXC2: Hello Heather, Paul and Beej
kingandcommoner: Happy May Day!
mtvcdm: Vive la workers seizing the means of production
DoodlestheGreat: @kingandcommoner Up the revolution!
TXC2: BlindPathfinder yes, 14 years ago
TheMerricat: Happy Mayday! All you Traveller aficionados!
Strebenherz: damn Heather
Wolfstrike_NL: May the first ring rule them all
RockPusher:
Beej is buying all the video games! 
mtvcdm: So what you're saying is you're blaming Heather for this
RockPusher: Savings‽ Beej's In!
gnyrinn: It's the very extended cut, when you have a big cheese board before sitting down to watch the LotR trilogy, and then fall asleep and your dreams are influenced by the sound.
TXC2: mtvcdm bold move for a man to blame his wife, lets see how it plays out
BlindPathfinder: "trick"
BlindPathfinder: saving money by being made to spend moar moneys
Xed_Regulus: My stack that growing is books
RockPusher: The Bloop Rinse is strong with this one!
mtvcdm: My book stack's unusually tall right now but in my defense it was a library book sale and they don't get cheaper than that
RockPusher: Okay, *nods*
Jillexie: Sure
RockPusher:
Excited to hear snippets of Beej's journey 
mtvcdm: !addquote (Beej) [now] I have six more crates to remove from a tunnel, and if I do that, something might happen!

RockPusher: Is Beej keeping a diary?
TheAinMAP: Hello.
Wolfstrike_NL: and saving!
RockPusher:
Blue Prince is a diary coded game
AdamYMHMI: Technically news about video games!
TXC2: it's new, that's most of the word fulfilled
DoodlestheGreat: I thought it was funnay.
TXC2: Beej's call out to Cameron made me laugh
Mai_Andra: There's been no CheckPoint so far this month.
TXC2: UNION FOREVER!
gnyrinn: @TXC2 Defending our rights! Down with the blackleg, The workers unite!
RockPusher: My expectation is WotC is probably fairly chill, Hasbro will be cartoon mustache twirling
Wolfstrike_NL: The fact that there needs to be news about unions is indeed hilarious, something that should be so common making news is wild.
TXC2: Wolfstrike_NL like the union should already exist yes
Wolfstrike_NL: @TXC2 Yup
RockPusher: Since Hasbro seem to be very high on trying to gut the golden egg laying goose that is keeping them from instant insolvency
ThorSokar: The "well you quit then" means you cannot get unemployment, which is the real sucky part
ArtDecoSunburn: NLRB come on in.
TheMerricat: So as comments have mentioned on Youtube, they already have a Union Busting company, one of hte 'best' on retainer anyway.
SocraticMethod: "union busting"
SocraticMethod: is the term
TXC2: ^
BlindPathfinder: sounds orthodox
TheMerricat: A lot of union busting is spreading as much FUD as possible among your employees so that they are too scared to be a union.
BlindPathfinder: cant trust people in robes
AdamYMHMI: The difference is there are law firms that specialize in negotiating with unions, and law firms that specialized in breaking them up.
TheMerricat: The firm's job is to help you spread the FUD without crossing legal lines that give a union a foothold.
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMerricat See Amazon and Starbucks for other examples solely coming from Seattle.
TheMerricat: On the contrary, unfortunately bad economic times tends to mean that it's far easier to bully a union out of existence. Because people get afraid that they won't have ANY job instead of a shitty job.
TXC2: TheMerricat yet another reason we need UBI
TheMerricat: @TXC2 Preach.
ThorSokar: Hell Ubisoft's decision when that happens is to just close the entire studio
TheMerricat: *fingers crossed*
TXC2:
like maybe make the store load in one go ,and not in chunks
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 A strong labor sector is an important first step in agitating for this.
SocraticMethod: For sale: mario casket, never used
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn true, a bit of a chicken/egg problem
ThorSokar: Also, the caskets in the picture you used seemed very small, as in kid-sized
TheMerricat:
@SocraticMethod See the original story was sad, but Mario has 1up mushrooms, so this story just means he never needed it.
TXC2: adults come in different sizes....
SocraticMethod:
@TheMerricat Any story where casket is not used is uplifting imo 
BlindPathfinder: all the reporting is certainly helpin the whole gettin nintendogs onto their smell thing
ArtDecoSunburn: @SocraticMethod I'd hate to tell you about Cambodia, 1970s.
ThorSokar: @TXC2 I was mainly commenting on the width of the boxes since we couldn't see the length
TXC2:
makes you wonder how much the ashes are box and cloths?
TXC2: ThorSokar fair point
aerolend:
@ArtDecoSunburn 
ThorSokar: The people who run funeral parlors are a special breed of human
RockPusher:
ArtDecoSunburn: One endearing aspect of humans is that we memorialize our dead. We remember, and we want to be remembered. I appreciate the variety of methods.
SquareDotCube: Buried by falling off a sea cliff
ThorSokar:
Viking Funeral for Heather
TXC2: I'm up for a sky burial
BlindPathfinder: turn me into a slurry and inconvenience someone with me
ArtDecoSunburn: @ThorSokar "The American Way of Dying" remains a classic, decades on.
ThorSokar: haha
aerolend: Then there's some sort of a natural burial without emalment and caskets.
aerolend: *embalment
SquareDotCube: I think space burial would be neat
SocraticMethod: @ArtDecoSunburn I'm pretty sure the casket was less unused and more not existing at all.
ArtDecoSunburn: @BlindPathfinder "Blind Pathfinder slurry for Mark! Mork?"
RockPusher: Also burial at sea generally means you've met an unfortunate end
TXC2: maybe the graveyard is like the dead people nightclub?
BlindPathfinder: i hope my dead body gets donated to some unworthy cause
aerolend: I have a few options that would be purposeful. Not sure how fun they would be to haunt, though.
SquareDotCube: That's why you learn how to possess living creatures
mtvcdm: Bury me in a Fortune 500 boardroom, perfect haunting spot
TXC2: Graveyards did use to be the only green spaces in cities
ThorSokar: That's part of why all those crazy headstones happened
gnyrinn: @mtvcdm Can I be cremated there?
CaptainSpam: You can have a picnic, OVER MY DEAD BODY!
ThorSokar: Worst Golpher dies?
ArtDecoSunburn: @BlindPathfinder Unaccredited medical school? Black market thigh bone dealer?
SquareDotCube: A very foreheadstone idea
TheMerricat: I have to hold my tongue about #politics comments concerning golf course burials....
Vinewood_OG: Cremated? Sand trap.
TXC2: or, better yet, Fuck golf, use the space for anything other then golf
RockPusher:
Laserbeaks_Fury: be part of the sand trap
aerolend: That's why they have Luigi patrol with a vacuum.
Laserbeaks_Fury: well ash traps
ArtDecoSunburn: @mtvcdm You could be the erie portrait staring down.
mtvcdm: Disney has 999 ghosts, they're taking applications, you have to apply for a job
Juliamon: TheMerricat Seen and acknowledged
ANeMzero: Main Street USA, Ashen Capital
CaptainSpam: I've heard of folks who flush ashes in toilets at Disneyland/World.
SquareDotCube: Why not make Haunted Mansion more authentic!
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 "That's my dearly departed, just by the bunker."
Wolfstrike_NL: And they could start offering caskets at the disney graveyard!
BlindPathfinder: @ArtDecoSunburn thatd be nice helpin after death with some med school dropouts art project
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMerricat Nothing says love for your second wife like using her coffin as a tax deduction.
TXC2: maybe its like the big gem fusions in Steven universe, but ghosts
TXC2: !addquote (Beej) [now] Everyone gets to decide their ghost situation.

Wolfstrike_NL: I've heard the toilets haunted, maybe start there?
ArtDecoSunburn: @BlindPathfinder "Elbow MACARONI, Barry. Macaroni. Not elbows. How are supposed to hot glue these into a picture frame for Mom?"
aerolend:
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Universal post-Unitarianism?
mtvcdm: If my ashes go into space and burn up on re-entry, does my ghost just control the ozone layer now
ThorSokar: Boy I'm gonna get to antagonize a LOT of people in death
RockPusher: * Soul may currently be owned by The Devil
Juliamon: I think I'd like my ashes encased in a glass sphere like a poison bomb, with no documentation so people can't tell it's my ashes
ErynTzun:
Oh hai 
SocraticMethod: David Jaffe
ArtDecoSunburn: @Juliamon Like a pharoah's trapped tomb?
BlindPathfinder: while id like to believe mums would appreciate any homemade present i think the inclusion of human bits is kinda a stretck
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn I think it's more like you can choose to haunt, or move on
gnyrinn: But if you "give in" and call it X, you can call tweets there "X-creteons". Also that genericises "tweet" as a social media post.
Juliamon: I think it would be very satisfying as a ghost to watch someone try to use me as a weapon and ruin their plans without doing anything
TXC2: gnyrinn I suspect it already is, like "google it"
Juliamon: then I can follow them around like "oooOOOooo you fucked uuUUUuuuup"
RockPusher:
I don't believe the bigfoot pizza exists 
BlindPathfinder: i hope ghost existence is very intermittent i dont want to experience all the empty bits
ThorSokar: HEY! The Bigfoot Pizza was great, I legit still want one
TXC2:
Juliamon that makes me think, maybe people don't have anxiety, they just have ghosts
Lysander_salamander: hello everyone
TXC2: hello Lysander_salamander welcome
gnyrinn: @TXC2 I googled it on duck-duck-go and then I twote about it on Bluesky.
RockPusher: "Humans have a problem." is an all-timer
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Nice to have some post-Earthly agency.
TXC2:
ArtDecoSunburn yes, God gives us that little change of pace
TXC2: RockPusher "just the one?"
TXC2: "BACK IN MY DAY....."

Eklinaar: "If it were me, I would simply do it right."
Laserbeaks_Fury: WoW doesn't really need to be a "2.0", it revents itself practically every expansion
TXC2: I'd like to know if this "WoW 2" idea came before or after Destiny 2 launched
ThorSokar: "Prop Hunt with an inactivity timeout" made me chuckle
Lysander_salamander: They picked Fast twice
h3rsh3yb4r: Midnight
TXC2: Lysander_salamander and then it stack overflowed
h3rsh3yb4r: patch is a buggy mess but the expansion slaps
h3rsh3yb4r: patch feels AI vibe coded
RockPusher:
Ben's a WoW player, but we still love him

ThirdFloorDraft: super karate monkey racer
Juliamon: It read like those "type a word into your search bar and let it autocomplete repeatedly" memes
BlindPathfinder: crimson desert has some dialog which does not up in english
SocraticMethod: Yeah, reads like MTL from non-western language
TXC2: "ai drew this" is a problem actual artist are facing right now
ErynTzun: Humans can think uncritically and make garbage all by themselves
mtvcdm: Computers suck, but don't forget that humans can also suck
Laserbeaks_Fury: Because I started playing Wow, which exposed me to Penny Arcade, which exposed me to CheckPoint on PATV, and then one day Graham mentioned "Hey we have this whole other channel!"
RockPusher: As propaganda, I do like "That's AI." is shorthand for "That's shit!"
aerolend: AI is made by humans, so...
aerolend: I've always preferred en-dashes.
Laserbeaks_Fury: David Lynch was putting peoples heads into TVs way before AI
ErynTzun: They can decide that the judicial system doesn't matter and make up their own assinine rules
Lysander_salamander: the ai was trained on writings, and written things have em-dashes
RockPusher: There is a use for em-dashes — though I am loathe to use them now.
Juliamon: I always just used -- because I didn't know how to actually type an em-dash
HorusFive: "Who's all this WE, mate?"
Juliamon: everyone was always like "oh it'll auto-change it" and it never did
CaptainSpam: I feel it says more about people than AI when "this uses punctuation! And GRAMMAR!!!" is grounds for excommunication.
SocraticMethod: Old: The first thing you need to know when investigating a Ritual Site is that with so much magic in the air that while in combat Regeneration Orbs will manifest healing you for 15% of your heath.
SocraticMethod: New: Regeneration Orbs manifest in Ritual Sites healing you for 15% of your health.
aerolend: @Juliamon That's what I use for the en-dashes. We don't have em-dashes in the main language I originally learned those in.
RockPusher:
;–; en-dash crying in the corner
AdamYMHMI: I used em-dashes so much in web writing I just memorized the code for it and to this day will still catch myself writing it in
SocraticMethod: It really sounds like the original language uses verbs differently
SocraticMethod: So MTL is doing best guess based on usual corpus
TXC2: SocraticMethod like it was Japanese first maybe
CaptainSpam:
I activate a compose key on my computers and dangit, I wanna use it! 
RockPusher:

ThorSokar: Is this where I post the clip of Beej saying that exact sentence?
RubikDarkwill: Well it did work for FFXIV
Invitare: didn't they start doing WoW 2 once and abandoned it?
aerolend: Will Counter-Strike do it at some point?
Laserbeaks_Fury: The only reason he wants to reset the game is so he can sell you all your cosmetics again
RockPusher: CaptainSpam it's very handy for my beloved interrobang ‽
h3rsh3yb4r: in his defense, overwatch wasn't on the warcraft 3 engine
LordZarano: I can type one of these—because linux and I enabled the compose key in kde keyboard settings—but I don't really use them
mtvcdm: When you have a problem, just throw the moon at it. Problem solved.
ThorSokar: He sure went for the double and the triple down on that one
AdamYMHMI: @mtvcdm To solve problems, moon them. Got it.
mtvcdm: The microblogging platform is, just, a blog now
Juliamon: "You're just not trying hard enough"
RockPusher: LordZarano useful tech is adding custom combos with ~/.XCompose
ThorSokar: that's RICH coming from a former C-Level who went home every day at 5
AdamYMHMI: That's the take of someone who does not do that.
SocraticMethod: Was he maining a Warlock? 'cause that's so Gul'Dan take lol
RockPusher:
LordZarano it's how I do oft-used emote combos on Twitch
TXC2:
the people working 80+ hours a week just aren't dedicated enough
aerolend: No. That is completely antithetical to work-life balance.
BlindPathfinder: gotta monetize passion
RockPusher:
Game development sometimes rocket science if your game is rocket game
TXC2: NO workers should be burnt out
ghyllnox: ???
AdamYMHMI: There's a difference between emergencies and having to run triage and the daily operation of a doctor's office
SocraticMethod: Still sad that they cut the sheer desperation moves from the movie. Nuking Antarctica would have set the mood.
aerolend: @TXC2 No anyone should be. I could make an exception for billionaires, I guess.
ThorSokar: "Spiders-Beej is an OUTLIER and should not be counted!"
TXC2: aerolend billionaires aren't workers
DoodlestheGreat: Bedpan cleaners.
Laserbeaks_Fury: It is absurdly weird when you are in an ER and you hear the workers bullshitting like it's a regular job. Because to them, it's just a regular job.
aerolend: @TXC2 The exception is from "anyone". Not "workers".
ThorSokar: They do get to take a "break" they all get fired as soon as the game ships!
TXC2: aero ah ok
KeytarCat: "You'd make time if you wanted to do it"
TXC2: * aerolend
Lysander_salamander: They're applying that to service jobs too. They're cutting positions and telling us to work twice as hard to make up for it, with no extra pay.
Laserbeaks_Fury: And now you can even succeed and *still* get the boot
CaptainSpam: Be MORE passionate! Excrete more passion, dangit! Now!
Lysander_salamander: Skeleton crews are not efficient.
aerolend: @Lysander_salamander Counter-offer. We work less and get compensated more.
Lysander_salamander: yes good
aerolend: @Lysander_salamander We have the technology.
LordZarano: Me
IcewindBilbo: it blew my mind one time when a leader in a project I was working on casually suggested (with a straight face) that everyone start working evenings and weekends for 9 months rather than change scope or target dates. For a totally arbitrary deadline
CaptainSpam: I'd like it.
RockPusher: How similar is it to the original Steam controller?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Did it have paddle buttons?
aerolend: I'll probably get it. I'll watch the Gamers Nexus video about it first. Haven't yet.
ThorSokar: It's basically a steam deck w/o the screen
Lysander_salamander: that looks very uncomfortable
ThorSokar: It's completely different RockPusher
DoodlestheGreat: For a bunch of people, the higher placement may actually improve things. YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY
RockPusher: ThorSokar not that I think it will matter - it's not like the OG made it to my country and I doubt this one will either
EvilBadman: the touchpads being south of the sticks is weird, I'd be afraid of hitting it with part of my thumb
CaptainSpam: I'm absolutely willing to give it a shot.
Laserbeaks_Fury: It looks like is has extra buttons under it
ThorSokar: I switched to using a PS5 controller when I play Steam Games with a controller, that's been working nice, and hurts my hands less
Laserbeaks_Fury: I'm interested in those extra grip buttons, I'm sick of games using the stick buttons
aerolend: The PS3 controller was too small for me to use without extra grip covers. Remember the X360 controller being pretty much perfect for me, the newer Xbox ones not as much. Seems like Sony is bigger, but I haven't tried it because of the built-in battery. I'm expecting to probably like the size of this one.
GedankenPalast_: @ThorSokar Same here, PS5 controller turned out to be better for my hands
Lysander_salamander: I'm suddenly glad I don't have a steamdeck
aerolend: And also PC compatibility.
LordZarano: I decided I'm definitely buying it back when it was first announced
EvilBadman: @Laserbeaks_Fury Steam Deck has 4 additional buttons underside I imagine this does too
metroidprimesub: Gyro Zeppeli
LordZarano: And watching just about every review I can find for it hasn't changed that, I'm still excited
CaptainSpam: I do respect trying to not do "just another Dual Shock again".
aerolend:
I do find the PS face icons a better reference than the Xbox/Nintendo letter ones, easier/quicker to associate. Which apparently is not the same for everyone. 
ThorSokar: Gamer's Nexus also has a teardown of the controller, it is EXTREMELY repairable and everything in the inside is labeled very well, and the battery is extremely easy to replace, no screws, no glue, it just pops out
GedankenPalast_: ^
aerolend: The touchpads really differentiate it. And they're quite neat in some situations on steam deck.
Laserbeaks_Fury: The DualSense has a touch pad too, and even their first party games barely use it
Juliamon: I would love to try it out, but I'm not interested in dropping $99 to do so
TXC2: ^
CaptainSpam: Yeah, I'm kinda afraid most devs will just stick to the lowest common denominator, which will inevitably just be something like the original PSX Dual Shock.
LordZarano: Steam Input is EXTREMELY powerful, you can map any control on any controller however you want
ThorSokar: Big same Juliamon
aerolend: Never liked rumble in controllers. But haven't tried the PS one, which is apparently kind of neat in some games?
Laserbeaks_Fury: I would invest in it if the joysticks and button are replacable
aerolend: @LordZarano Yep. One of the features Steam does well.
gnyrinn: @Juliamon I am prepared to do it, especially to run my TV-computer; but I can't.
EvilBadman: @aerolend The PS5 rumble is heads and shoulders above Xbox's
Laserbeaks_Fury: Got my Rumble Pak with StarFox 64
aerolend: @IcewindBilbo oryxBlank
ThorSokar: AND rumble is the first thing I disable in every game I play, haha
GedankenPalast_: @aerolend I really enjoyed Ghost of Tsushima with my PS5 controller. Immersive implementation.
CaptainSpam: Full force-feedback is also fun.
aerolend: And a "this will break faster" issue.
accountmadeforants: What's interesting is that lots of games use Steam Input natively nowadays (because means you get to support basically every controller for free, and even detect which glyphs to use). So if Valve adds HD Rumble to their API and supports both the Steam Controller (and original Steam Controller) and DualSense, then it might have enough of an audience for devs to at least give it a shot
ThorSokar: haaha, YEP been there
aerolend: @GedankenPalast_ Would be nice if it was not limited to either console or having to plug the controller in for some games. I only play PC these days.
BlindPathfinder: yeeeap still an issue
aerolend: Xbox has that option on PC, but it only works when plugged in. -_-
CaptainSpam: Yeah, 8BitDo's controllers seem to have STRONG rumble by default.
EvilBadman: the 8bitdo Pro 2's rumble in Donkey Kong Bananza is AGRESSIVE
RockPusher: depleted uranium rumble weight
aerolend: Hitachi Magic Rumble oryxCozy
Laserbeaks_Fury: Are the pads also buttons like the DualSense?
Julian_Rogue: if they did would it be steam powered?
aerolend: (Excessive vibrations can be bad for your hands.)
accountmadeforants: @Laserbeaks_Fury They can be pretty much whatever. (Though there's not actually buttons behind them, they do the pressure-sensitivity+simulated click thing that Macbooks do)
GedankenPalast_: @aerolend I use it over blutooth, only adaptive triggers need the cable. I only have a pc.
aerolend: @GedankenPalast_ oryxNoted
SocraticMethod:
@Laserbeaks_Fury GN did a teardown, the plastic is easily replaceable but the electronics would need to be either desoldered or new mainboard https://youtu.be/hVRfie61QyE?t=655
aerolend:
They could make it more expensive, but bundle it with Half-Life 3 and make it exclusive for that bundle. 
Julian_Rogue: I'm interested in the Frame when they get the RAM for those call me
accountmadeforants: Valve did manufacture (or at least assemble) the original Steam Controller at an assembly site they built/own themselves, at least
LordZarano: The specs are all out. 16GB DDR5 + 8GB GDDR6 VRAM
ThorSokar: I do appreciate the honesty of "Well, there's no RAM in it" and everyone having a good chuckle
RockPusher: The hardware and the SteamOS stuff are hedging against Microsoft trying to wall-off the garden.
aerolend: I wonder if it will come out at some point, that at least some of the RAM pricing debacle is due to some competitors of Valve trying to artificially inhibit the Gabecube.
accountmadeforants:
@RockPusher That was also the point of the original Steam Machines/SteamOS 
(Because of Windows 8 adding an app store)
Julian_Rogue: The nintendo method of using tried and true technology to deliver a more reliable product ala the OG gameboy
Juliamon: aerolend Seems really unlikely
RockPusher: One of the strengths of Valve being the way Valve is is that they are better at long-term strategy than most
TXC2: I'm still 8gb of RAM, so 16 should (in theory) last a while
Agu_Sakku: RAM and Storage ARE UPGRADEABLE by people
accountmadeforants: DBrand has already made a Companion Cube case for it
LordZarano: I appreciate how Valve has the actual engineers who worked on the thing be the ones to do the interviews
ThorSokar:
I see you Heather
Agu_Sakku: DBrand is making a "Friendship Cube" for it!
ArtDecoSunburn: Someone get Heather a 1970s Kaypro, stat! All about the handle.
CaptainSpam: Yeah, if it's intended as primarily a gaming device, 16GB of RAM ought to last for a good amount of time.
gnyrinn: @Agu_Sakku If they are socketed, but not if they're soldered.
aerolend: @Juliamon Eh. Implausible, sure. But unlikely? Not so sure, with the history of horrible things having been discovered later in time.
Agu_Sakku: @gnyrinn I BILEAVE its NOT soldered.
aerolend: @Juliamon Also with the more recent actual history of DRAM cartels.
Juliamon: Literally a lemon slice in the can
Lysander_salamander: ok?
aerolend: *DRAM cartels price fixing
ThorSokar: I was confused how you get the lemon slice out? does the entire top of the can come off?
Juliamon: Sephiroth does not strike me as the sort of person who would drink alcohol
Lysander_salamander: it's the slap-chop of katanas
Juliamon: ThorSokar They actually do make cans with removable tops now
ThorSokar: ah
ThorSokar: I am behind the times apparently
Juliamon: (I think I saw them on a Japanese travel vlog)
Lysander_salamander: it's like a ship-in-a-bottle?
SocraticMethod: Example of the can
mtvcdm: Lemons are just naturally occurring within cans
kingandcommoner: That is a thing I've seen before
AdamYMHMI: Sephiroth is a soldier, chaos agent, and flair bartender
Laserbeaks_Fury: 80% more slicable than a Gainsborough
Lysander_salamander: growing individual slices
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's a very Cave Johnson vibe
aerolend: They assemble the lemon in the can atom by atom. Like the ships in a bottle.
AdamYMHMI: Putting a lemon in the can was Hojo's original project at Shinra
TXC2: the Manhattan project of food and drink
Vinewood_OG: Limes? "You're fired."
accountmadeforants: It's also set up so the lemon only floats to the top when you open the can
aerolend: @TXC2 yep
Lysander_salamander: and they end up pouring it all over themselves, becuase they're not used to cups instead of cans
SocraticMethod: Imagine if lemon slice blocks the top until it's shaken enough that everything splashes on the face
TXC2: right chat, I'm off
RockPusher: 'night TXC2
aerolend: @TXC2 night
neisan2112: There was a local brewery who used to have all their cans like that. Sort of sharp edges on aluminum and all
TheMerricat: Night @TXC2 !
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming Heather, Paul and Beej
Juliamon: right, this DRM thing
aerolend: oryxBlank
CaptainSpam: Ah, yes.
Lysander_salamander: Did they talk about ubisoft changing it's eula about games they're not supporting anymore?
aerolend:
oryxYell 
Juliamon: Lysander_salamander Not yet
aerolend: You just have to provide your ID, photo, and DNA data to Sony.
aerolend: The answer is -- the games never existed.
SocraticMethod: Well, sony AI chatbot support also said there was 30 day call home period, which did not help things at all
TheMerricat: @SocraticMethod What....!?! An AI Chat bot hallucinating an answer? NOOO!!
ThorSokar: so, if you buy a game 14 days before they shutdown PSN for the PS5, you get it for 15 days
TheMerricat: @ThorSokar We assume that nothing would change at that point, but yes.
TheMerricat: Yes and no Beej. Those things die too.
ThorSokar: One could also interpret their silence as "oh shit, we got caught" and then they implemented what they said in their response
aerolend: DRM doesn't need to exist, if we just pay everyone properly and distribute resources fairly.
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's going to be really bad when you can own your physical car, but you have to license the software to run it
KeytarCat: @Laserbeaks_Fury That already exists with Tesla
Juliamon: Laserbeaks_Fury Is that not literally Tesla?
TheMerricat: @ThorSokar Or being completely dumbfounded about what was going on, because they knew they hadn't implemented what the internet was claiming and trusted the fact that there was enough smoke that there had to be a fire that they wanted to double check things before opening their mouth. Then again, it IS Sony and I've never known them to act anything less than "You should be honored I deign to even listen to your babbling in the first place, I owe you no answers!"
Vinewood_OG: CaaS
ThorSokar: Both possible also TheMerricat !
aerolend: Backup your game copies.

EvilBadman:

EvilBadman: NSO*
Akaiatana: Heather jumps around (jumps up, jumps up and gets down)
SocraticMethod: @Juliamon No, tesla doesn't require license to drive. They have remotely disabled features, though
ghyllnox: You say that
ghyllnox: Yeahhhh
ThorSokar: YEA, it's gotten REALLY bad
RockPusher: Apparently there is a Canadian company selling dumb-tractors and is making bank
kingandcommoner: I wished I live din a city where having a car wasn't absolutely necessary
EvilBadman: Being on the road is the easiest way to illustrate humankind's selfishness
Vinewood_OG: "Fucking walk, then!"
mtvcdm: Wait
mtvcdm: 'Classic?'
aerolend: Physical copies of friends.
EvilBadman: Rugrats Redux
aerolend: @RockPusher Dumb tractors are actually smart.
JessieImproved: theme song plays in my head
Laserbeaks_Fury: No game about the classic Rugrats Wild Thornberries crossover?
KeytarCat: I had the gba game and I didn't enjoy it most at all

mtvcdm: 7 out of what
ThorSokar:
100 
aerolend: Some games out there, I'm not sure I realized ever existed.
TheAwkes: <- new star, who dis?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Gargoyles?
ThorSokar: Does it include Ducktales 2?
Laserbeaks_Fury: There *was* a Darkwoing game, dunno if it's on that collection
Frankenfruity subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 123 months, currently on a 123 month streak!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, Frankenfruity! (Today's storm count: 9)
aerolend: "This Nintendo Switch 2/Nintendo Switch-exclusive update to the original 2017 collection adds two new games – Bonkers and Goof Troop – to the lineup for a total of eight games, including DuckTales, DuckTales 2, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2, TaleSpin and Darkwing Duck. This is the first time that Goof Troop and Bonkers have been re-released anywhere."
kingandcommoner: Don't you mean Duck Tales Twoo-oo-oo?
aerolend:
Laserbeaks_Fury: and a cop named Miranda Wright
ThorSokar: DuckTales 2 is legit a fantastic NES game
aerolend: @kingandcommoner Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na...
Laserbeaks_Fury: Do we get to wash Tashi Station
RockPusher: Powerwash Luke's X-Wing after Yoda pulls it out of the swamp?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Wash the Darkside off
Lysander_salamander: nice
Izandai:
Laserbeaks_Fury: What a heap of junk!
TheAinMAP: Maybe there's a reason Luke got to keep that X-wing as his own?
RockPusher:
Kitty! 
SocraticMethod: "The third job revealed is the only one that takes you down onto the surface of a planet in a galaxy far, far away - the Lars Homestead" I guess we are washing the ashes of Luke's family
TheAwkes: @TheAinMAP The internal water damage stickers voided the warranty.
aerolend: Nice.
Laserbeaks_Fury: Dad Of Girl
TheMerricat: Hugh
Izandai: Hugh
TheAinMAP: Hugh the man.
EvilBadman: Hugh Man (ok, that's not his last name)
aerolend: It's action Death Stranding 3 about the Kojima Productions mascot.
SocraticMethod: Hugh Williams
WarCorrespondent: Hugh Willdie
aerolend: Nice.
Izandai: Diana is very well written.
aerolend: They have some game reference posters in-game, too.
aerolend:
@TheMerricat 
Ned_Flandalorian: they went and got jobs, now they've retired
Izandai: There is, in fact, a *lot* you can do to make an emulator more hardware-accurate beyond what is strictly necessary to run all the games anyone cares about basically right.
Getter404: Ah yes, the classic Wrinkly Pipe
EvilBadman: The smearing on Mario in some of the clips is big oof
Ned_Flandalorian: they've yoshified it
kingandcommoner: Castlevnaia had some areas specifically meant to show off mode 7
maywecomein: is *that* how i was supposed to be interpreting the bumpers in f-zero???
TheMerricat:
@maywecomein "Artist Intreptation"
ThorSokar: yea, they made it so you can change out specific instruments, which is neat
kingandcommoner: is this supposed to be different?
SocraticMethod: Probably easier to hear directly instead via a podcast mic
maywecomein: hmmm
TheMerricat:
IB4 they turn the SNES into a Gamecube, then a Gamecube into a Wii.
TheMerricat: Today.
ThorSokar: there's a project for sourcing where all the samples for specific SNES games came from so that's an easy source to swap the samples out
TheMerricat: They get far enough and it beomes a standardized mod format.
Ned_Flandalorian: it would also have to be crafted individually for each game, which was already done for MSU1 replacements
accountmadeforants: Most modified ROMs are distributed as patches nowadays, so there's not as much of a legal risk there at least. (But just modifying the ROM won't get you this stuff)
Izandai: I don't believe you.
JessieImproved: No it is not *crosses arms*
Laserbeaks_Fury: I watched someone play Kingdom Hearts, does that count
TheMerricat: Which one was 10 chat? The moody kid or the moody teen or the moody adult?
Izandai: Wait it is? 10 came out only 4 years after 7? What the hell?
Izandai: Video game dev cycles sure used to be a lot less than they are now, huh?
kingandcommoner: I forgot about the sphere grid until like 60% of the war through and didn't have access to the monsters I needed to actually level up
GapFiller: Izandai time moved dfftly back then
UWDJohn subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 87 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, UWDJohn! (Today's storm count: 10)
TheMerricat: Oh 10 was the kid with the fake laugh.
SocraticMethod: Is it time? Time for BLEEETSBAAAL?
ErynTzun: smol beans
gnyrinn: @TheMerricat I think it was the one with the androgenous protagonists
Laserbeaks_Fury: And 11 just showed up in 14
Mai_Andra: 9, 10, and 11 were all in development at the same time. (PS1, PS2, and MMO)
Izandai: Okay those are great, however, does the Lulu plush comes with a teeny-tiny moogle plush?
TheMerricat:
They've gone backwards. They are rereleasing 7 now....
maywecomein: TIL that the ps2 was released while I was in high school (I always thought it was a few years later)
aerolend: Final Fantasy 2020
TheMerricat: 2040
GapFiller: Izandai nvm that how true to the game is the Lulu skirt
SocraticMethod: @TheMerricat It's the one with dress made of belts cause nomura decided to hate on one specific dev
Mai_Andra: FFX remaster is already available on current systems
Izandai: @GapFiller TRUE
AdamYMHMI: I have a friend who has bought every re-release and remake of FFX. I wish they would more so I could message him with another one.
RockPusher: FFX-3 Part 12/8
Izandai: @SocraticMethod Wait what?
Mai_Andra: would be nice if we could get an FFXIII release playable on PS5...
Laserbeaks_Fury: People are too scared to do brand new
ErynTzun: When i worked for EB during that time we always had a ton of copies available new and used, but the price stayed the same for such a long time. Almost as bad as the N64 games and GameCub.
itmightbemikey: They did bring a lot of new ideas into the gameplay systems
ErynTzun: *cube lol
maywecomein: would vaguely bet that you spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to translate concepts/feelings from the original to the remake, more than you might spend coming up with "something totally new"
Izandai: @TheMerricat Oh yeah I know about Lulu's dress, but I haven't heard the part about it being done to spite one specific person.
GapFiller: Laserbeaks_Fury to misquote Stewart Lee 'The New' has great artistic value but ltd commercial potential which is ofc a big nono in a late capitalist society
Bruceski: You can get X, X-2, and Weird X Mystery Dungeon where Yuna has a Shitty non-Tidus Boyfriend all in one on both PC and Switch.
SocraticMethod: @Izandai I exaggerate a bit, but apocrypha was that Nomura wanted to test the limits of CG team so he designed a very complex skirt and tasked them to implement it on PS2 hardware
Izandai: @SocraticMethod Aah. Funny.
aerolend: Diablo 2 remaster was done well that way.
Ned_Flandalorian: don't listen to him beej, play more fallout
niccus: yeah, with terror instinct
EvilBadman: Tetris Effect is the closest and it rules
Izandai:
aerolend: I think I'd like a good remaster of Fallout 1, 2, Tactics.
ErynTzun: Would U like to see my Pokemans?
TheMerricat: Name 200 of your favorite pokemon.
RockPusher: Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu…
Izandai: Okay that's hilarious.
Invitare: do they have to battle Blaine at the end?
ghyllnox:
SocraticMethod: @Izandai Or, with the CG render as the link above shows
TheMerricat: Good luck doing that in Target.
aerolend: And I think they also want you to open the card packet on the spot.
Laserbeaks_Fury: Pikachu, Fat Pikachu, Shocked Pikachu, Surfing Pikachu....
Getter404: Bandai took the simple route and just removed the shrink wrap from everything, tanking the resale value
Izandai: @Laserbeaks_Fury Nonono, Pikachu, Hat Pikachu, Cosplay Pikachu, Gigantimax Pikachu...
TheMerricat: What I don't understand, it's just FUCKING cardboard. Sell more than the resale market can absorb and everyone wins.
GapFiller: that is devious
Laserbeaks_Fury: it's no different than any toy craze
Lysander_salamander: nice
Lysander_salamander: I'll have to look that up later
TheMerricat:
NGL would love to get the LRR crew a resealing kit so they can do proper cube drafts as a lark.
ErynTzun: As someone from MN that was great, also eff ICE both kinds.
aerolend: They should put that effort to something good instead.
RockPusher: *shoves pikachu into a vacuum bag and sucks the air out*
Ned_Flandalorian: don't get it wet, don't feed it after midnight...
Laserbeaks_Fury: like it's a ceremony '
ErynTzun: It's like a convenience store slipping it under the window, but it's nice because it means there will be no changed dropped between the hand off.
TheMerricat:
@Ned_Flandalorian But in actuality they tell you not to feed it after midnight because they want to keep the monopoly on creating more Pikachus, not because they are worried for you.
ThorSokar: but money is flithy
Laserbeaks_Fury: I do love a dedication to process as an expression of art
mtvcdm: Oh you'll have an answer Heather
Lysander_salamander: So not a game about mesmerizing hamsters
RockPusher: Oh! This!
Lysander_salamander: oh dear
mtvcdm: Every additional word is weirding Heather out further than the last
RatherLargeToad: hamstering without a license
itmightbemikey: You Isekaid into a Hamster
RockPusher: You are the hamster in this scenario
e_bloc: you both it
Izandai: Oh wait I've seen this.
eid010n: oh no
Lysander_salamander: noooooope
Izandai: Yup.
Lysander_salamander: nope nope nope nnope
ErynTzun:
gnyrinn: Oh, dear.
CaptainSpam: *sigh* Of course that's what it's about. Of COURSE.
Lysander_salamander: ah, it's a pov game
ThorSokar: this is a LONG walk
eid010n: that is an irresponsible way to hold a hamster
Lysander_salamander: I've seen videos like this. Not as a game before
Getter404: What if it IS another universe but this is the only difference? Less Isekai, more Sliding Doors
e_bloc: three sisters is where it all clicked for me
TheMerricat:
@Izandai We need to ping Xafty NOW.
RatherLargeToad: In tonight’s episode: The writers thinly veiled fetish
Lysander_salamander: This is a whole genre
CaptainSpam: Oh wait it's live action? What the hell?
kingandcommoner: You don't know, maybe you're reincarnacted into a world where this isn't weird
DoodlestheGreat: Can I be reborn as a tomato? I saw someone else do it and felt kinship.
Izandai: @TheMerricat Can he watch Twitch at work? I forget.
Laserbeaks_Fury: where does the dating come in
TheMerricat:
@Izandai I'm sure no.
Lysander_salamander: Interactive FMV game
Izandai: Alas.
mtvcdm: Three different personalities: idol singer, gravure idol, model
e_bloc: the word romance doesnt hit quite right for me
SocraticMethod: @CaptainSpam There is a growing market of FMV CYOA games, like next iteration of VNs
itmightbemikey: you can run places
DoodlestheGreat: @RatherLargeToad The writers completely uncovered fetish.
Izandai: Heather, haven't you seen Hamtaro?
TheMerricat:
Heather hasn't watched Hamtaro obviously.
ErynTzun: The tags are: FMV, Dating Sim, First-Person Choose Your Own Adventure
RatherLargeToad: Hamtaro simulator
Lysander_salamander: There's different kinds of romance
e_bloc: sleep, poop, water bottle
e_bloc: its a hamster's romance
gnyrinn: Wait, hang on! What was that with the demonic drinking game up in the right-hand side?
Bruceski: If you run on the wheel at the wrong time Sister #3 calls the Emperess fat and gets executed
Juliamon: (non-romantic) love
ErynTzun: This game is marked as containing 'Frequent Nudity or Sexual Content.' You are seeing this game because you have agreed to continue to this page.
SocraticMethod:
Romance as in Romance of the Three Kingdoms
e_bloc: @Bruceski if this was true I would be 100% in
Izandai:
Juliamon: A LOT of people recognized Bad Rats 2
mtvcdm: Road to Empress
TheMerricat: It's FMC
TheMerricat: FMV
RockPusher: So long as it is made by actual humans and not a microtransaction hellscape then good for them making it and good for those who want to buy it
Lysander_salamander: oh, dubbed
Izandai: Oh god please turn off the auto-dubbing.
ErynTzun: It would be weird to tag it FMV if it wasn't
Getter404: I think youtube turned on AI dubbing again
Lysander_salamander: this music is weird
Izandai: ^
Izandai: Paul please
Juliamon: autodub yeah
RockPusher: Eff right off into the Sun Youtube
Izandai: Yeah it was auto dubbed.
Izandai:
Juliamon: it literally said autodubbed
Lysander_salamander: there we go
e_bloc: I think FMV is great but this is a crime before god
Lysander_salamander: Ok I'll take a closer look. For science
Getter404: And of course it's the default now because nobody feels like reading anymore
RatherLargeToad: was she giving the hamster a smart watch?
GedankenPalast_: "This item is currently unavailable in your region" because f my country
e_bloc: its a prequel to hamster survivors
Izandai: @Getter404 From the reactions I've seen, I strongly doubt that feature was implemented because viewers want or like it.
Juliamon: Seems an easy pull to have you snuggle in their cleavage
mtvcdm: It said one of the actresses *is* a gravure model
aerolend: Is that one actually good?
Lysander_salamander: I keep meaning to try Shibuya Scramble
RockPusher: I bought 428 after watching Heather play
RockPusher: I need to actually get around to playing it
DoodlestheGreat: Where would we go from here, anyway?
SocraticMethod: @DoodlestheGreat Sexpoint, ideally
aerolend:
SocraticMethod: @SocraticMethod Wait, checkpoint -> chillpoint, so sexpoint -> cuddlepoint ?
aerolend: TIL Hwarang means "Flowering Knights".
ContingentCat: @SocraticMethod aftercarepoint?
aerolend:
TheMerricat: "The Korean historical equivalent of knighting someone—bestowing elite status, honor, and a warrior role—is the appointment of a Hwarang (화랑; 花郞), often translated as "Flowering Knights" or "Flower Youth"."
SocraticMethod: Crimson desert has the most game per game.
SocraticMethod: both in good and bad way
Juliamon: SocraticMethod Dave the Diver has entered chat
aerolend: Take care.

Lysander_salamander: have a good afternoon! Thanks for the commentary.
ThorSokar: @Izandai Ahahaha, we got one!
DoodlestheGreat: "It gets okay after the first three months!"
Lysander_salamander: Kind of like when people were saying that about final fanasty 12
mtvcdm: You get so many hours out of me before I just say, nope, going for a shorter game
RockPusher:

EvilBadman: They're in Vegas, they'll leave pauper
ErynTzun: To be fair TNG had a whole lot of weird issues like using Star Trek scrips from a series that never got done and having a writers strike during Season 2.
EvilBadman: And the great irony is the popularity of some commons have cause their price to spike
RockPusher: Otaku Jeff rides again!

7gorobei: he was taking suggestions this morning
RockPusher: I doubt James will know until he wakes up
aerolend: No one is going to know until after that stream ends.
Juliamon: It's a secret from everyone, even him
Mai_Andra:
James is allowing us the opportunity to speculate that he's playing MineCraft.
