CaptainDaks: great try
e_bloc: that was kinda a sick round
30teracyte: Nelly, you asked about a DI in the first game that didn't wall splat you - basically there has to be a gap before the DI hits for the wall splat to trigger, so that the defending player has an opportunity to respond. Usually this doesn't come up, since DI is so slow there's almost always a gap, but burnout or other very plus scenarios can give you situations like that
CaptainDaks: kinda. when you wanna extend the player's burnout, you just dont DI
CaptainDaks: that situation is called a "lock" and it's basically a hard rule of the engine to prevent uninteractable DIs
CaptainDaks: ggs guys o7

TheAinMAP:
TehAmelie:
TehAmelie: that's me, i'm floating into the chat through the floor
RockPusher: TehAmelie 's a gh-gh-gh-ghoast!!!!
e_bloc:
TehAmelie: i just watched Drag Me to Hell for the second time in three decades. pretty spoopy
TheAinMAP: Signal.
TXC2: CONTACT
TehAmelie:
TehAmelie: Sam Raimi thought about Evil Dead and went "what if we drowned the hero in ALL the types of goo?"
Anubis169: Well chat... what's in the news today
Anubis169: this one's gonna be cool
TXC2: hello Anubis169
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Anubis169 Besides the increasing number of affairs?
e_bloc: outlook unclear
Anubis169 bounces around TXC2
Julian_Rogue: Hi chat
e_bloc: are we still huang up on the nvidia thing
Anubis169: [20:07:06] %?e_bloc: outlook unclear <-- i adore this pun
TXC2: hello Julian_Rogue welcome
Thefluffiestguineapig: Hi chat, hi TXC2
e_bloc: @Anubis169 ngl my friend send it to me as an image of the bottom of a magic 8 ball
TehAmelie: well, graphics cards will go down in price, right? she said naively
TXC2:
Microsoft did the outlook thing to take the heat off of nVida 
TXC2: Hello Thefluffiestguineapig welcome
Thefluffiestguineapig: Did a 4th affair get uncovered in the time between Checkpoint releasing and now?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TXC2 I think it might still be down
e_bloc: wait is there a third affair
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc OH YEAH
e_bloc: nice
TXC2:
TehAmelie they will....in about 2 years when they start being built again 
TehAmelie: there was a rumor but i think it's still three affairs
RockPusher adjusts to being awake
Anubis169: I can only imagine Satya Nadella looking at Nvidia, saying to a random exec "Hold my beer, watch this!"
e_bloc: I mean once you have three affairs I really think it doesn't actually matter how many you have
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Anubis169 Well, there might just have been beer poured on stuff
RockPusher: I underestimated how much the Teeth Stuff™ I got done would take out of me so I have been Big Sleep
e_bloc: from a "you should resign" standpoint, not a "we are going to hold you responsible for taking advantage of your position at work" standpoint
TXC2: e_bloc yeah the number wasn't the problem, it was who they were with
e_bloc: Outlook was up at least long enough for me to email my boss telling me I didn't feel like working today
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh for sure, the spy was bad and the employee is almost as bad
Juliamon: employees, plural
e_bloc: yeah I mean if you have an affair with employees there should be ramifications
e_bloc: like, civil ones
TXC2: TODAY!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon Were both the other affairs with employees? Ah
TXC2: Kitty!
TheAinMAP: Cat.
BusTed:
TehAmelie: kitty!
Juliamon: KITTY
Thefluffiestguineapig: KITTY
RockPusher: Kitty!
Thefluffiestguineapig: !clip

If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
Julian_Rogue: KHITTY
TheDevil_Risen: Kitty!
12o13: man if work place dating were illegal europe would be in shambles
mtvcdm: In fairness, who among us *hasn't* had an affair with Jensen Huang
Laserbeaks_Fury: kitty
TXC2:
12o13 or LRR for that matter 
12o13: citty
e_bloc: workplace dating is fine, dating someone who you have control over and can influence their career is . . . not ok
Thefluffiestguineapig: They do have fur on the bottoms of their feet, it is not enough for them to stand for long periods of time
TehAmelie: makes sense. it's sillier when beavers sit on their tails (but almost as cute)
Julian_Rogue: rabbits do! beans are only on predator species
TXC2: no fur on feet because it reduces sensitivity
ContingentCat: snow leapards to a similar thing
TXC2: all cats are predators
TehAmelie: cats can't live on cuteness alone
Thefluffiestguineapig: Some predators do have fur on their feet
e_bloc: I didn't know, now I can check animals feet before I decide whether to run away
Thefluffiestguineapig: Correct Beej! This is why cats don't drink milk!
TehAmelie: actually they live on meat alone
Laserbeaks_Fury: Chillpoint the FLAMETHROWER
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc Yes, definitely do that to a bear
TXC2: Chillpoint the show, the game, the musical, the hat
e_bloc: capitalism is not optional

12o13: I hope he is
Julian_Rogue: Beejdantic
e_bloc: "today?"
Xed_Regulus: "Manul" is Pallas's cat's name in the Mongolian language
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is this Beej advocating for a real cat?
e_bloc: if Beej dies before the end of the stream, it is fully Heather's. unless Heather kills Beej, then its murky
TehAmelie: i always liked Two Robocops. for any pet.
Snowcookies: He's the dad that stepped up
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is Paul way quieter for anyone else?
12o13: Iike Tremor for a cat. 'oh a Termor knocked over the glass of water'
Juliamon: People be real bad about watching the entire video before opening their fool mouth
RubikDarkwill: Fine for me
krorkle subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 112 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, krorkle! (Today's storm count: 15)
TXC2: ALWAYS watch the WHOLE video before commenting
hyalopterous: Seems the same to me
e_bloc: this won't be helpful but I think Paul is talking slightly louder now
calculated_uncertainties: I think paul was just speaking a bit more quietly, but we still love y'all
RubikDarkwill: Paul turning to Heather and Beej does turn him away from him mic
TXC2: it's tech that effects video games
TheDevil_Risen: RIP Jen_done
Juliamon: Just like Huang's wang
TehAmelie: Nvidia still makes a small business in videogame hardware
hyalopterous: And it's juicy gossip
ContingentCat: Also fun to make jokes about for Daily Show etc
e_bloc: that's Justin Huang, not justin's wang, to be clear
12o13: Jensen? I dont think he asked for this
TXC2: he was one of the co-founders
e_bloc: *Jensen
TheMerricat: Jensen Huang co-founded Nvidia in April 1993 alongside two other co-founders, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem. [1, 2]
bytecaster: Hey had a lot of time to collect all of the waifus!
mtvcdm: She is, a woman that is not Jensen
mtvcdm: 's wife
e_bloc: slight conflict of interest
TXC2: to be fair, that could be true without her knowing that
Anubis169: buncha chips found in russian drones too, the distribution market is boned
Anubis169: nvidia chips*
Anubis169: lol
Julian_Rogue: alex did get the cattleprod
RockPusher: "Asset" was probably a decent word choice Paul originally made
e_bloc: it's true, if she is just doing her job but then china is having access to her reports that's essentially spying
shushu2539: Ian Horner Rescue Tool
TehAmelie: with state owned corporations you can have corporate spies and spy spies at the same time!
TXC2: well, they're the same as they were before, "Fine" is a relative term
Anubis169: shushu: loving that it abbreviates to "I HRT"
RockPusher: Ian and Alex are undamaged by the CRT. Whether they are fine is somewhat subjective.
e_bloc: I believe the most damage dealt last night was by acetone to some inanimate material
TXC2: e_bloc yeah, she might be nothing more then a useful idiot
Anubis169: paranoia
ContingentCat: Also 2 other affairs with employees has come out so different much more clear kind of wrong
mtvcdm: Pooh, don't eat that! That's not a honeypot! You're eating GOVERNMENT SECRETS
e_bloc: also is the person involved very close to the US head of state
morteica: Fun fact. I was a freelance editor for a while and I got to edit a book on the history of European spies. It's pretty crazy everything they did/do that the public has no idea is happening.
RockPusher:
I doubt a Russian asset is going to care about a Chinese asset 
Thefluffiestguineapig: No one is is quite clear who tried to warn Trump, but that is in the article
RockPusher:
TXC2:
Thefluffiestguineapig and he didn't care
ContingentCat:
lol 
lrr HEATHER
ContingentCat:
* 
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig and oddly (I use oddly loosely), they defended Huang yesterday
kingandcommoner: don't kinkshame
TXC2: so Jensen has a patten of taking other people's wives ?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc Again after all the affairs? this is my shocked face -.-
hyalopterous: Gonna get some Nvidia rgd installed in my legs
e_bloc: at the very least someone beneath you in the power structure and someone who you have direct control over their career
12o13: I mean at some point being rich enough in general is a power dynamic
Xed_Regulus: Possible a 4th now
e_bloc: yeah but it's different when you're indirectly signing their paychecks
ContingentCat: @Xed_Regulus damn when did he have time
12o13: well, man was great at parallel processing it seems
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc And they are reporting to you for their work
hyalopterous: HR rules stuff
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig yeah I only say so because I don't know enough about it to know if maybe she was reporting to someone else in between but it's regardless
Thefluffiestguineapig: AGREED HEATHER
ContingentCat: 100000% agree Heather
TXC2: damn right Heather
e_bloc: it should be grounds for immediate dismissal no questions asks
Thefluffiestguineapig: That's not the argument here
12o13: is it then? I dont recall this conversation
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
12o13: thats an interesting statement
e_bloc: who is to say his treatment to those he was having affairs with did not misrepresent their performance in a way which then caused financial statements to be published which are not reflective of the company
RockPusher: Market relevant information was not disclosed covers a wide-range of stuff
Xed_Regulus: He was trying to bring employees together and improve morale, one female employee at a time!
ContingentCat: they should be paid a hell of a lot less then
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ContingentCat ^^^^^^THIS
ContingentCat: Mascots don't normally make that much
TheMerricat: So one joke that was being made that I think I also heard being alluded to on Checkpoint's after segment... the 'spy' is _not_ going to get half of everything. She's NOT the wife. The _wife_ is the one who gets 50% of everything (assuming no prenup).
Thefluffiestguineapig: If they don't do much, pay them a representative amount
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig see we have less of a company heirarchy and more of a company polycule
TehAmelie: just like the king in our constitutional monarchy
Thefluffiestguineapig: It means it economy is fucked
TXC2: TheMerricat there is, in fact, no prenup
e_bloc: CEO pay should be capped at a multiple of the lowest-paid worker (including non-monetary compensation)
Firewhiskers: CEOs are the soap opera that companies put on to represent themselves.
DoodlestheGreat: @e_bloc And including part-timers & interns.
Anubis169: hang on... 3?
e_bloc: @DoodlestheGreat oh yes, to be clear I mean every employee
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Anubis169 Oh yeah
TXC2: what's funny is that Nvida doesn't make chips, they just design them
Anubis169: thought it was 2
e_bloc: 3. . . so far
RockPusher: Now, the interesting bit is whether his departure might cause people to find they *are* like Enron
saiarcot895: @Anubis169 2 employees, 1 possible foreign intelligence
ContingentCat: @Anubis169 2 previous employees as well as maybe spy
TXC2: Anubis169 a third was announced an hour before checkpoint was filmed
Invitare: the stock market is just gambling for wealthy people except the games are rigged
mtvcdm: The soap opera is a mood ring for rich people
Thefluffiestguineapig: Unless it is an actual disaster, like with Boeing
e_bloc: stock is tangently related to profits
12o13: stock markets are soap operas. thats why you make money trading off twitter sentiment and not financials
Firewhiskers: The stock market is an extraction tool. Companies used to invest their profits in themselves.
ContingentCat: now a lot less valuble lol
e_bloc: that incentivises her to not make it worse
TXC2:
12o13 explains why polymarket is more reliable then the news right now
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc Unless she doesn't want to look at it
DoodlestheGreat: Would short selling be the stock equivalent of review bombing? :tf:
CaptainSpam: Or, it incentivises her to sell FAST, get the $MoreThanAnyHumanNeeds out of it, and be done with it.
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig sure, there are also possibilties that there may be restrictions on selling the stock as well
saiarcot895: even for the 50-50 split, was the marriage done under American laws, or Taiwanese laws, or something else?
TheMerricat: "Jensen Huang’s wife is Lori Huang (née Lori Mills), whom he has been married to for over 40 years."
Thefluffiestguineapig: Can Paul turn his mic up slightly? His deep voice does make him hard to hear and I think he has valid thoughts
ContingentCat: He definitly would have said it was an arrangement if there was
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TheMerricat Fuck this asshole
12o13: yeah, imagine shes got this kink and the issue is everyone else is freaking out
Firewhiskers: It can be an affair if you start a relationship and hide it from your spouse even if it is an open marriage
ArtDecoSunburn: Lori Huang (nee Mills). They met in college.
e_bloc: tbf at this point the media is assuming it's an affair
RockPusher: Stocks and Stock Markets solved genuine risk-distribution and liquidity challenges. They became malignant when people started trading stocks on the markets as the ends rather than the means.
TXC2: media will call it an affair even if they're in an open relationship
e_bloc: @TXC2 this
ArtDecoSunburn: He's one of the few big tech founders still on his first wife.
lamina5432: that ending statement in check point was fun as well
TehAmelie: it can be an affair without being an illicit affair
e_bloc: "partner while in open affair" does not get clicks
12o13: honestly, even if they have an open relationship, hitting prime time news for a week would still be a reason to appologize
Xed_Regulus: @ArtDecoSunburn For now
ContingentCat: @12o13 just not wanting their personal business public knowledge would have been enough for a lot of people, also the employees makes it not ok no matter what
Firewhiskers: Even poly relationships an be hierarchical if you have kids with some partners, etc.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Or a bad CEO
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig redundant
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ContingentCat ^
Anubis169: Paul: Pretty sure the one that went in that submersible was kept down
Anubis169: very far down
12o13: XD
e_bloc: yeah resigning as a CEO is tough, you get to not work for a few years, collect a billion dollars and then become a consultant once everyone forgets
TheDevil_Risen: #SaveMassEffect
TXC2: "it's a story about Bioware!" (looks inside) finds story about Canadian politics
Anubis169: which made a lot of people cry
Firewhiskers: @TheDevil_Risen EA owns Mass Effect not Bioware
RockPusher: Politician says something. Press doesn't understand political landscape politician is in. News at 11!
richard_ermen: Sweet. I'm in a hotel, its almost 10 pm, and I get to watch Chillpoint on a large hotel tv from my bed. Chill.
TehAmelie: someone said EA is an investment company that sometimes produce videogames but i think they're into negative numbers of games being made with their support
TXC2: hello richard_ermen welcome
SixPairsOfFeet: Nvidia Democratic Party
Snowcookies: there's 2 levels of NDP
ContingentCat: they're siblings
richard_ermen: Heyo :waves:
Snowcookies: I got to meet Singh during one of the provincial Ontrio election
ContingentCat: That'd be great to see
Xed_Regulus: Yeah, Avi Lewis doesn't even have a seat in Parliament yet
Firewhiskers: Now, Bioware employees could make a new IP. Like Mass Effect was created because they made KOTOR but didn't own the Star Wars IP.
e_bloc: and Don Cherry does not exist
Snowcookies: Canada basically has 3 parties (NDP, Green, Bloc-Quebecois) who exists to bully the liberals to do good
ArtDecoSunburn: Just as not all Americans are bad, not all Canadians are paragons of virtue.
ContingentCat: Liberals are barely centrist, confusingly for outsiders
Thefluffiestguineapig: Canada wants to save oil companies
Akaiatana: The federal NDP were scavenged and salvaged into the liberal win. Sacrificial altar BS.
TXC2: people need to remember that "liberal" just means "a lot"
ContingentCat: Jack Layton was so good
Thefluffiestguineapig: Ah, how the US Democrats do that every time and will continue to do it?
Xed_Regulus: Pour one out for Jack
Thefluffiestguineapig: Bad politicians are often the best people
Akaiatana: I shared a grocery store with Singh. He biked there with his toddler. I have hopes for Lewis.
Juliamon: Avi is on Mastodon, which says a lot
ContingentCat: I followed the leadership race, I'm fairly hopeful about it going better this with him
Thefluffiestguineapig: -.-
ContingentCat: Or after a non-confidence vote
TXC2: we had that in the UK as well
ContingentCat: he did that yeah, also agreed about being an ass
Thefluffiestguineapig: There are some things I think you should do like the US, but most of those things are either older or not enforced as laws
ContingentCat: that pattern is frustrating yeah
lamina5432: it's corruption at it's finest
Thefluffiestguineapig: Me too Heather
lamina5432: literal media manipulation more than anything else
Akaiatana: Hate drafting as a primary goal in MTG is a bad strategy.
TheDevil_Risen: 2 party systems suck imo but yeah
mtvcdm: Every two years head to the polls and yell 'No Not That'
TXC2: 2 party systems are what you get with first past the post voting, every time
Xed_Regulus: I have proudly NEVER voted (Progressive) Conservative
TehAmelie: who doesn't sometimes wish you could vote negatively, just against one party
Thefluffiestguineapig: @mtvcdm My late father decided he was a one issue voter: no Super PACs in the last 15 years of his life and would tell people about it
Thefluffiestguineapig: And it worked
Thefluffiestguineapig: (Meaning that he specifically chose along that issue, not that it made change)
e_bloc: its very pork barrel sounding
lamina5432: it's just a name honestly
Thefluffiestguineapig: That means they would need to afford their IP
Thefluffiestguineapig: Which is not easy
Akaiatana: Bioware doesn't own Destiny, beej
Thefluffiestguineapig: They need money to own their IP
Thefluffiestguineapig: Even if they can just get the assets they were working on that is a win, but still
Snowcookies: A few companies have and they've been a hit or miss with their games
TehAmelie: Cyberware? wait no
TXC2: easy, make it illegal for a company to own another company
Firewhiskers: Ex-Bioware staff should follow Hidden Horses' example and form their own company & ask for help from the fans.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Snowcookies Which ones are you thinking of? I'm so sorry, this has happened to so many companies (shuttering) that I am lost in the possibilities
lamina5432: IP collecting should be a problem, like maybe you need to use it in some timeframe
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Firewhiskers Honestly this might be the best path, like what Second Wind did
Laserbeaks_Fury: "Spiritual Successor" is a thing
ContingentCat: they can start fresh, it's harder but possible
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Laserbeaks_Fury And might be better
Laserbeaks_Fury: Especially regarding Mass Effect and Dragon Age
ContingentCat: Part of the petition is buying back the IP
Firewhiskers: I'd rather they spend the money that they could give EA for the Mass Effect IP to go to the workers and make their own games
TehAmelie: open script, search+replace "Shepard" -> "Shepherd". done! okay it might be more complicated than that
Firewhiskers: What does the Pallas Cat on the table think?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Who thinks Beej ruined LRR?
e_bloc: hey the studio who made disco elysium are making a new . . . oh
LordZarano: Like… ENN?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Beej has lead to infinitely more "IAN" in chat and I am for that
richard_ermen: I think Bioware is also a lot of the older Developers and writers and thos ehave been gone for a long time.
e_bloc: i mean it's called the ocarina of 'time'
TXC2: Speedruning vs only playing the Ocarina at the start of the game
Firewhiskers: So many Ocarina Meglovania covers
Thefluffiestguineapig: Ah, breaking the game
Juliamon: The old speedrun strat was z-target, yeah
Laserbeaks_Fury: Muscle Memory is a hell of thing
RubikDarkwill: Applying the adult texture to the child skeleton and visa versa
TXC2:
wait...is this why Linkin park did the song Rollin ?
TehAmelie: @e_bloc that was almost funny, Za/um splitting into three factions to compete over who can make the most pure Disco Elysium successor was definitely the most Disco Elysium thing they could have done
e_bloc: sounds dangerous
Laserbeaks_Fury: Watching player just straight run off platforms expecting Link to auto-jump
Thefluffiestguineapig: I love when Chillpoint teaches people things
Thefluffiestguineapig: This is true
RockPusher: It's a good looking box
e_bloc: @TehAmelie I agree 100%, but I'm also resigned to the idea that DE was a singular moment in time
TheDevil_Risen: Isn't that a glitch to get Link to do that in BoTW?
TehAmelie: yeop
Juliamon: The BK thing is frustrating because of the regionality
e_bloc: I got the McD/Pokemon happy meal for my kid on wednesday
TheDevil_Risen: the BK promo being reigonal SUCKS
Akaiatana: Magic the Gathering as Ronald McDonald intended.
Firewhiskers: Who wants their MtG cards to smell like fries?
e_bloc: the fact that they put the cards in the happy meal unprotected is deranged
TheDevil_Risen: same as the last food promo
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Firewhiskers Clearly some madlads
TheDevil_Risen: oh well #AussiesGetOwned
TheDevil_Risen: Wait WHAT?
e_bloc: wait what
ContingentCat: Wendy's is an interesting brand
Thefluffiestguineapig: I learned about that from Matt and Cam
RockPusher:
Nelson confirmed Wendy's stan
ThanhtTheBoss: It's weird to think that Wendy herself is overseeing all this (I think. Is she still CEO?)
Juliamon: Wendy's has one of the better media teams
Snowcookies: The game seems to have really good reviews, which makes me think it's a good promo for their upcoming game
saiarcot895: he went home to bring the dogs home, or something like that
hyalopterous: Twitch keeps feeding me ads for the Wendy's game.
e_bloc: sorry how old is the child
TXC2: e_bloc 6 years old
TheDevil_Risen: apparently a thing
TheDevil_Risen: WOW
saiarcot895: also, he asked his daughter "you have the gun, right"
e_bloc: @TheDevil_Risen prison
Thefluffiestguineapig: @hyalopterous Same, the game looks wild. I kind of want LRR to play it on stream so I can see it
Thefluffiestguineapig: NO
e_bloc: I would never abandon my 6 year old like that, that is insane
TheDevil_Risen: haha @e_bloc
e_bloc: even if it's for his kid, the kid can sleep while he does it
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc JAIL this man goes to JAIL
morteica: @e_bloc Yah...abandoning a child for a long period of time is neglect.
Thefluffiestguineapig: JAIL FOR THIS MAN
TheDevil_Risen: yeah abandoning a kid is just a crime regardless
Thefluffiestguineapig: NO SHIT IT WAS ARRESTED
e_bloc: I have a 6 year old. he loves pokemon cards. I stand in line to buy them while he sleeps or goes to school, or whatever
Thefluffiestguineapig: *he
ThanhtTheBoss: Okay, question: would it be okay for the daughter to be in bed sleeping without him in the house?
Firewhiskers: No
lamina5432: this is why people are calling millenials bad parents
Firewhiskers: (Not an answer to @ThanhtTheBoss sorry)
TXC2: ThanhtTheBoss assuming Aussie rules are the same as the UK, no
morteica: @ThanhtTheBoss At 6? Alone? No. You don't leave a 6 year old alone.
e_bloc: I think you're giving him the benefit of the doubt
Thefluffiestguineapig: No, JAIL you don't GO HOME
e_bloc: I don't leave my 6 year old alone in the car if I run into a store, that's just insane
morteica: @lamina5432 Nowhere near as bad as our parents were.
TXC2: e_bloc we do do that before a trial has happened
TehAmelie: bring enough food for the whole time next time
mtvcdm: That would have been better than leaving her in line
EikoandMog: @lamina5432 I like to think I'd be better than my latch-key parents.
e_bloc: @TXC2 fair, before a trial yes, may not be criminally liable but I am fine sentencing him as a bad parent
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TehAmelie It doesn't take an hour to get food
lamina5432: @morteica true, but its the spread of information these days. makes us sound worse
Thefluffiestguineapig: -.-
Thefluffiestguineapig: NO SHIT
ContingentCat: oh good -__-
TXC2: as they should
richard_ermen: Amazing.
morteica: @lamina5432 Then we millennials need to start talking about the massive amount of neglect and abuse we dealt with
EikoandMog: It certainly beats reading the comments section
e_bloc: surprised they didnt point out pokemon cards are worth more than a 6 year old
spethycakes: That lacks the flavor and vitriol I read those comment sections to experience
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yup, indeed Heather
ContingentCat: Yeah that kind of thing is why I always skim over it
mtvcdm: Passersby were amazed by the unusual quantities of blood
ThanhtTheBoss: (Did I miss an explanation of the stuffy on the desk?)
RockPusher:
e_bloc: kitty
Juliamon: ThanhtTheBoss At the very start, yes
TXC2: ThanhtTheBoss at the very top of the show
Juliamon: it was cute and it was at Ikea
spethycakes: There's an opportunity there to make a silent pact with the rest of the comment section to go absolutely wild with fake things that weren't included in the story
ContingentCat: @ThanhtTheBoss it's a Palace Cat and a very good girl
e_bloc: think long thing wrong
TheMerricat: @spethycakes So.... review bombing but for news.
TheDevil_Risen: you activate ULTRA INSTINCT
richard_ermen: But Heather...AI summaries!
TheDevil_Risen: hehe
richard_ermen: "AI will make it all better"
spethycakes: @TheMerricat EXACTLY. The trick is to make it so out there that it's obviously false
spethycakes: I recognize that I may be overly optimistic about the media literacy of the general public...
Foxmar320: I had a S once and it was fine but a little laggy
Firewhiskers: Make him put out Tekken on the Switch too.
richard_ermen: @spethycakes As someone who worked in tech support....yeahhh....
TehAmelie: i always pictures the boss of Tekken as Heihachi Mishima
LordZarano: XBSeS & XBSeX
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh noooooo
ContingentCat: aw darn
Thefluffiestguineapig: Having to optimize your game? Oh no!
Thefluffiestguineapig: !clip
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
TheDevil_Risen: HAHAHA
TheDevil_Risen: OOF
TXC2: that's....ableist?
tapdancingbeavers: just leave the weaker child in a line for pokemon cards
ContingentCat: who else would people complain to?
ghyllnox: "The lower-end hardware is like having to care for a disabled child, they shouldn't have been born in the first place"???
TXC2: just leave the weaker child to be eaten by the lions
ghyllnox: Nah I'm still like wtf
ContingentCat: I feel like he dodged saying the worse thing he actually meant there but I can't prove it
Laserbeaks_Fury: Les Enfants Terribles
ghyllnox: Wouldn't like to hear that as one of that guy's kids
Thefluffiestguineapig: Like the switch and the OLED
RockPusher: Ultimately I agree that it is a mistake trying to have a console with SKUs of meaningfully different performance.
RockPusher: Sure, differentiate on non-performance like say, storage size
TheMerricat:
I feel like they'd remove all this hubub if they just made the consoles expandable, maybe letting you slot in expansion cards and extra ram... or you know why not just be PCs. 
RockPusher: but having different performance SKUs is an anathema to the very idea of a console
lamina5432: man does xbox have the worst naming convention
ghyllnox: And opens you up to lawsuits
Thefluffiestguineapig: "No, you have to actually optimize your code like you should have to for everything"
ContingentCat: I feel like the S/X sounding so similar was a big problem, there isn't as much problem with the switch lite
TXC2: lamina5432 yeap, them just biting the bullet and being one number lower then Sony would have saved them all this trouble
TheMerricat:
Wii -> WiiU.
LordZarano: Even for console-like PCs, Valve released the Steam Deck first, then years later the more powerful Steam Machine
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TXC2 Yeah, if they could swallow the "console war" or not "number always need to go up"
Firewhiskers: Like, in 1995, Sega had to support the Genesis, the 32X, and the Saturn which was too much for them.
TheMerricat:
@LordZarano So to be pedantic, they did the Steam Machine first. People just didn't get on board with it and it failed. Then they went to the Steam Deck, then did a _new_ Steam Machine.
Firewhiskers: And th Sega CD
lamina5432: they could have done like different angles, like xbox 270 and made it trianglular
mtvcdm: It'll pop in the way that makes lots and lots of people unemployed and their savings go poof
lamina5432: IMO the bubble is currently popping but it's a slow air leak
ContingentCat: Also the greed of we're selling it at this price why would I accept less -_-
TXC2: it'll take at least 2 years for the prices to come down for consumers
Firewhiskers: Do prices go down anymore?
TXC2: mtvcdm like 2008 all over again
RockPusher: As I said earlier, we might now find out Nvidia *are* Enron
TheMerricat:
As loud as the anti-AI advocates are, I think people overestimate the _pushback_ against AI. When I was visiting my folks for my Grandmother's 97th birthday, everyone of my parents age were gungho about getting into AI. 
LordZarano: @TheMerricat The third party Steam Machines were kind of the same thing of releasing multiple different powers of console at the same time, which didn't work
lamina5432: for prices to go down we need a more competitve PC part market
hyalopterous: I mean, even if AI is worse at checking for cancer if you can run many more checks it's still useful
TXC2: lamina5432 like more then 2 CPU devs, more then 2 GPU devs etc ?
lamina5432: ye
12o13: AI can be worse at checking for cancer, but good at filtering out not cancer, and have large benefits still
RockPusher: I think this is a case of, as they say, the cover-up being worse than the crime.
memebot69k: None of these people are wheeler, what on earth is going on
mtvcdm: I saw someone say, as far as *marketing* your game goes, this is instructive: one drop of AI anywhere in the process, no matter how small, and the instant people find out about it, that's the discourse about your game, no matter how much they may have enjoyed it before finding out.
12o13: I need to make a game, hire a man named Al and openly declare that I used Al liberally
TheDevil_Risen: heck tarkov is at v1.3 and it still has issues with shadows and skyboxes at dawn / dusk in unity 5
RockPusher: 12o13 Al programmed the entire thing powered on Mountain Dew and Cheese-Its!
TheMerricat: Responsible AI usage.
lamina5432: I leaned toward everyone being a problem in this instance. The way they hid it but also that they hid it because people would react this way
TheDevil_Risen: protecting Voice/Artists, thanks steam!
lamina5432: isn't it anything customer facing in steam
Snowcookies:
They should've contacted Map, who fixed Desert Bus's dusk/dawn cycle
RTwo28: So much of this "controversy" is fueled by a lack of media-literacy and refusal of nuance and its infuriating
TheDevil_Risen: @Snowcookies HAHAHA lmao
TheDevil_Risen: @Snowcookies 10/10
e_bloc: this seems like a reasonable use of AI
itmightbemikey: It's not two houses, it's a house of house.
mtvcdm: The goose consulted AI
Juliamon: They're an "indie darling" which has Implications
RockPusher: Was the goose valued?
mtvcdm: !y
LRRbot: Goose was not valued
Juliamon: They got put on a pedestal
LordZarano: 'This is not an endorsement of, or argument for, the use of AI tools, however minimal. We have some concern that voluntary disclosures like this might contribute to the normalisation of this technology, or its treatment as “inevitable”. We support the work of those who are trying to limit the harm generative AI is doing to videogames and our world, and apologise that Big Walk’s LLM usage may not meet their standards.'
TheDevil_Risen:
Goose is big fun 
RockPusher: Well done LRRbot
TheDevil_Risen: Big walk just... confused me when i saw it
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
RTwo28: Also didn't House House not need to announce that they were the investigated team?
mtvcdm: But yeah, again, this just kinda proves that for some people AI is a 'one drop poisons the whole thing' proposition.
lamina5432: The world right now is so on the black/white train. Everything is either completely evil or completely good. Which the world just doesn't work like that
LordZarano: They didn't say there was just 1. they said the shadow thing is "here’s an example."
ghyllnox: If the award panel has a strong stance against AI use, even if the company was honest about it and did an ethics review, that doesn't change the AI use for the award
mtvcdm: And going forward as a developer, you're just going to need to reckon with the fact that this is how hardline the stance is.
lamina5432: The reaction kind of proves why house house didn't say they used it
kingandcommoner: This wasn't them avoiding paying someone to do a job, it was the people who work on the task admitting they weren't enough and using a tool to help with one problem
GreyThey: No Beej, those are the largest complaints artists have. Lots of us have *many* issues with LLMs - the art issue is just one part of that.
ghyllnox:
I love "It's a really weird form of scrapbooking" 
lamina5432: you still have to solve the math problem in coding, it can't be just left as "art"
morteica: @GreyThey Like how AI is usually wrong and can give dangerous advice.
GreyThey: The environmental impacts, social and health impacts, use of stolen materials, etc. are still very much there, even if you aren't using it to make art
ghyllnox: @GreyThey ^
lenonn_2949: I'd argue that the creativity involved in software engineering is the decisions involved in setting up architecture in such a way that it does not get in the way of, well, more artistic creativity, not as much in picking the iteration primitive
e_bloc: lesson: cheat better
Firewhiskers: LLMs have been trained on my novel without my permission.
morteica: @Firewhiskers Everything you do on your phone is also training it. Go through your settings and see how many things report back to LLMs. It's horrible.
RockPusher: The social problem here is one that crops up with many technologies which is a good chunk of humanity never consider or care about the externalities in the moment if they find the tech beneficial to them right then
saiarcot895: wasn't that half of the reasons for forums?
TomatoKigu: Imagine the community goodwill for making such a post tho; "We're offering you money to help us fix it without AI"
RockPusher: "It worked and it didn't hurt *me* so nothing you could say to me right now will make me care in the slightest."
ghyllnox: And does the person you're putting out a bounty for just plug it into an LLM anyways
RockPusher: Unfortunately applicable to many things.
TheMerricat: I think the key part here is also that our 'I solved it in 3 hours' guy also had the benefit of _knowing there was an answer_ and didn't have to go through all the failed solutions that House House needed to go through themselves.
Bruceski: Also, the phrased the problem in the form they eventually figured out how to solve. You can't solve "this big pile of code runs like crud when X happens" nearly as easily as "the system hangs up when shaders do blahblahblah".
Firewhiskers: @morteica Yes but my novel was written in 2006. I could not consent to its sharing at that time.
Akaiatana: Wendy's, famously, does not cut corners
EikoandMog: @Akaiatana lmao
TheMerricat: @Akaiatana In PR. I've got a Wendy's near me. They cut corners.
morteica: @Firewhiskers Anything done online or published online is subject to LLM theft. My work has been taken too.
Akaiatana: @TheMerricat It was a slogan they used regarding square burger patties
Snowcookies: On the dev's unreleased game, it says it's "100% human made" as a feature
TheMerricat:
@Akaiatana 
Juliamon: Wendy's, as a brand, *does* use AI. But this game isn't.
Akaiatana: People can't spell pizza without ai anymore
RockPusher: Burger-making robots have also been investigated and found wanting
Firewhiskers: And what if they need to change the recipe for tacos?
TheMerricat: They have automated line order machines now, but what Beej said, They cost more than min wage employees in maintenance.
Snowcookies: I wanna see the patent
Garfy400: I just want to pet angry kirtty
Juliamon: Having worked at a Wendy's... well, I would probably trust an AI machine equally to a human assembling the same sandwich.
SquareDotCube: Ham folding is not the kind of protein folding we're looking for
Juliamon: An AI is less likely to dip fingers into liquid cheese
Foxmar320: @Juliamon Somehow I still think the AI would mess up my "NO Mayo" request and give me a sandwich that looks like a living blob of pure mayo
accountmadeforants:
Share the ham folding machine if you can find it chat 
SquareDotCube: sandwiches made with 1000-fold ham slices
Juliamon: An AI would use bacon that had just been put in the warming drawer and was still mostly frozen, *because* humans do
RockPusher: Yummies Corp extending the HamPad product line with the HamFolder!
morteica: @Juliamon Sounds like the usual fast food experience. Don't even get me started on Panera. Just trust me when I say, don't eat there.
hyalopterous: Witcher is a Polish story
Marvoleath: Is it weird? They basically went No Mans' Sky with Cyberpunk "this is the last DLC, for real this time" like ten times already
TXC2: it's a cold cut, that's close enough
Juliamon: Foxmar320 Humans would also do that, because we aren't given time to redo the sandwich
Juliamon: Didn't make it right? It goes in the bag anyway
Juliamon: The order timer is all that matters
Juliamon: You ONLY redo it if the customer complains
Foxmar320: @Juliamon And I always complain
Juliamon: And that's all you *can* do
accountmadeforants: @TheMerricat Oh my god it's amazing
Akaiatana: Geralts just want to have funding.
Juliamon: but I at least trust you to not be one of those customers that holds the sandwich in front of the cashier, takes off the top bun, and *WIPES* the mayo onto the counter
accountmadeforants: Honestly everything being called "AI" for no good reason is just making all of this unnecessarily hard. (Hell, LLMs aren't AI, nor is image generation.)
ContingentCat: why isn't a human sound engineer doing the adjustments?
Marvoleath: "AI" is a tool, it's costly and generally used wrong, but it still has its uses
GreyThey: Are they using an LLM with all of the other externalities and issues, or just some local machine learning for the voice change?
Valhallan597: Oblivion
TheMerricat: Oblivion
Juliamon: Oblivion
dumbo3k: Oblivion
Juliamon: Happy belated Skyrimaversary btw
Juliamon: 15 years young!
TheMerricat: 11.11.11
SquareDotCube: Not really a spoiler but the character Patrick voiced died in the tutorial
Firewhiskers: As an audio engineer, I would want to make this situation clear *and* educate people that there are uses of non-data center LLMs for doing audio editing like compression on sound effects.
eid010n: It sounds like the Geralt VA is still a genuine human performance, using a custom local ML model to map the sound profile of that performance to his previous voice. It's essentially serving as a complicated voice changing filter in that instance.
calculated_uncertainties: this is actually one of the ways that 'AI' can be used right. limited, verified data set used to adjust due to disability, humans still very involved and doing the work and being paid
Marvoleath: The Polish voice for Geralt is quite iconic, I am not surprised they wanted to keep it as close to original as possible
ErynTzun:
Oh hai 
TXC2: hello ErynTzun welcome
accountmadeforants: None of it is AI! Just be more specific about what it is instead of using these stupid useless buzzwords!
RockPusher: The direct contractual stuff sounds good - explicit consent and remuneration, all the parties on board. The tech may or may not have the problematic externalities so there is more nuance there
ghyllnox: It sounds fine, but I'd want to know if they did the voice model from the ground up, or whether it still has the ethical issues of stolen data and environmental/social impacts from using a preexisting model trained on the voice
TXC2: a Small Language Model
Juliamon: I am too tired and worn down by slop to keep differentiating. The lack of pushback on the used language will be your downfall.
accountmadeforants: Also Respeecher was around in 2018 and they just called it "Deep Learning"
ghyllnox: @RockPusher This yes
RockPusher: Regular ass machine learning done with your own stuff, cool. Using one of the LLM company stuff, less cool.
GreyThey: Locally running and locally developing are very different
TXC2: yeah "AI" is marketing now
TomatoKigu: The term AI has become useless in any technical aspect.
accountmadeforants: Oh yeah rice cookers claim to use AI now (when it's the same fuzzy logic ICs they'd been using for decades)
shometatersalad: no, not the rice cookers too
SymphonySolstice: using AI as a synonym for algorithms in general is driving me bananas
shometatersalad: have they no shame?
GreyThey: Hopefully, the pushback from the public against LLMs will result in companies being more clear
TomatoKigu: @SymphonySolstice hard same
EikoandMog: Witcher 4 is focussed on Siri anyway
TheMerricat: TBF folks, AI has _always_ been a marketing term. Even before LLMs were a twinkle in Sam Altman's eyes.
Juliamon: when I say I'm anti-AI, what I'm saying is "don't fucking use the term AI willy-nilly, stop trying to use it as a selling point"
Marvoleath: He did have over 10 thousand lines in Witcher 3, could be too much of strain on Rozenek (the actor)
RubikDarkwill: IIRC it happens during Witcher 3, not after
ThanhtTheBoss: @TheMerricat In the old days, it was so futuristic. And frankly, I am tired of living in the future.
shometatersalad: fuck massive data centers espcially these tax dodging bastards that raise local electricity prices
CaptainSpam:
@SymphonySolstice Apparently the new hotness is to call ANY program running in the background an "agent". 
ErynTzun: Destroying forests without permission to build an Ai data center
LordZarano: Stockfish, the open source chess engine, was purely algorithmic from 2004 to 2020, then they added a neural network and had them hybrid together, then in 2023 they removed the hand crafted algorithm because the neural network evaluation was better
hyalopterous: Maybe this is the compromise on what they proposed with Miami before
accountmadeforants:
I would fully expect a GTA 6 "music event" to do the thing those crypto events did and use full UV lights that destroy people's eyes without them noticing. It just has that kinda vibe to me
Getter404: Did you hear the NEWEST GTA6 development? The codes on retail copies are printed directly on the rear cover *with no scratch off layer* so people can apparently pirate them with a flashlight
accountmadeforants: @Getter404 Lmao
RockPusher:
smh the important work of baloney-folding is regarded as a joke now
TheDevil_Risen: Rave / EDM scene
TheDevil_Risen: Back to Back
TheDevil_Risen: or Face to Face
e_bloc: yeah back to back
TheDevil_Risen: its a style of staggered mixing where each DJ takes turns picking/playing songs
ErynTzun: Lynnwood where Weird All is from?
e_bloc: b2b is usually two performing at the same time
e_bloc: despite the moniker
TXC2: Getter404 if true, A LOT of people are gonna lose jobs over that blunder
accountmadeforants: @RockPusher Let's not forget the baloney sorting system! You gotta separate your baloney by thickness! (Also, you need to make sure it's actually baloney, if it's too big it's not baloney!)
lamina5432: Me looking at the genshin impact concerts
ThanhtTheBoss: Twitch where it can get copyright struck!
TheMerricat: Yet
Marvoleath: in GTA V online?
Getter404: @lamina5432 Or the Umamusume concerts which somehow had a measurable impact on the midterms
accountmadeforants: Oh right there was that Umamusume concert that was supposed to happen in the US and then they didn't get their visas approved on time (despite doing everything right and as far ahead as they could), that was fun to learn about.
hyalopterous: @ErynTzun No, he's from Lynnwood California
shometatersalad: yeah because they couldn't get proper visa's while a FLEEING CRIMINAL was
ErynTzun: @hyalopterous Ahh I didn't hear the exact location
shometatersalad: I still can't believe my country is hosting basically a political leader under credible investigation
Kurintoi: Can't wait to see if 2K votes for unionization
TheDevil_Risen: need another DJTurnLRR concert
shometatersalad: Is is wrong I kinda want to see GTA VI crash and burn?
shometatersalad: bc it feels like they're using it's release to justify all this crappy behavior as of late
accountmadeforants:
They could do it with game streaming I guess
TXC2: shometatersalad not really, like I don't want people at rockstar to lose jobs, but Gods am I tired of hearing about GTA
otakubox0: @shometatersalad no that's valid, it definitely is pushing a lot of issues under the rug
accountmadeforants: (But otherwise it'd just get datamined instantly)
ErynTzun: I just wish a game with a better history was getting attention
Kentosaurus: I still unironically think that was a great U2 album
Kurintoi: remember when the matrix was blue?? I do
ErynTzun: The Matrix offline game was a terribly broken game that EB games bought far too many copies of. I know, I had to unpack 200 of them the nifght before launch.
TXC2: and then it when to shit, because all the fancy animations made the servers chug HARG
TXC2: *hard
ErynTzun: Ohblike in City of Heroes we had a club, it was secret at first and then they made it been bigger and made it an area to cross between zonea
accountmadeforants: Neat!
ghyllnox: Oh that's cool!
ErynTzun: They should have done that 50 years ago
shometatersalad: @TXC2 @otakubox0 thanks, I thought I was just being nasty after a while and I don't like being that kind of person
TheMerricat: In the news next year "Nintendo's digital archivist resigns as information is uncovered fingering them as Checkpoint's spy!"
marshallade: I have an MLIS degree and I've never been sadder to not live in washington
hyalopterous: Irish techno
Juliamon: They already have internal private archives, they wouldn't be starting from scratch
accountmadeforants: I hope Nintendo already knows how to do long-term storage, at least.
otakubox0:
@shometatersalad
ErynTzun: I came in late, is that a pallus cat stuffie?
Juliamon: it is
lamina5432: maybe it has to do with matpat doing political lobbying
TXC2: shometatersalad no worries
accountmadeforants: I assume it's mostly labeling and maybe intersectional knowledge stuff, tying all that together.
TheMerricat: @ErynTzun But the tail is wrong.
RockPusher: It sounds like they have a bunch of stuff sitting around in warehouses and storage systems and are like "please, we need an archives professional to actually turn this into a usable archive"
RockPusher: Which, A+ I hope they commit whole-ass to it if they want that
ErynTzun: @TheMerricat They probably are not common to exist in that form I imagine
EikoandMog: Nintendo Museum was SUPER fun and I'm glad I got to do it
TheMerricat:
@ErynTzun Beej did a bit about it at the start of the stream.
EikoandMog: That's a bit of Japanese Culture, too.
EikoandMog: Oh, the prototypes were SO COOL
EikoandMog: The Gamecube controller that was literally just 3 pieces glued together.
GapFiller: Mario: I'M WAITING
ghyllnox: Or "Let's make a remake, we can ask the archive person instead of realizing we lost the source code 20 years ago and need to decompile our own software"
LordZarano: Or 9-Volt in Warioware
RockPusher:
ErynTzun: Here is what not to do: don't let other ppl decelp or publish games on CD-I make your own system games
ErynTzun: *develop
lamina5432: gotta love games teaching kids gambling
Kentosaurus: correct canadian pronounciation
Getter404: Supermarket Sweep time
LordZarano: @Kentosaurus *Western Canadian
Getter404: So you're saying there's a chance
Juliamon: For what you're offering, it's pretty good
RockPusher: I was expecting that to be in the million rather than hundred-thousand
Julian_Rogue: Ya'll play magic for a living >.>
ace_of_dragon037: is there better or worse then god pack in magic
TXC2: Beej will become his CHustle character for real
jhmv: You want to buy a share of LRR for....?
Foxmar320: Leave Florida. Done im out
Julian_Rogue: There would be clue *beejdrop*
RockPusher:
Beej wants that 33% of that Bionic Trousers money
jhmv: Beej wants creative control of his streams
Getter404: Actually does Fortnite allow gifting? Someone could flood the market with this
lamina5432: you have to log on twitter for just that
BusTed: oh yeah, the bundle
TXC2: one would think that trademark fillings would prevent this sort of thing
ghyllnox: That is fun yes
RockPusher:
Good News! 
TheMerricat: @TXC2 Notably unlike copyrights, trademarks aren't automatic.
ErynTzun: They did a nice thing for their same game name dev
TXC2: TheMerricat ah, that could have been the problem then
BusTed: aw, wholesome
ghyllnox:
That's cute, but also
ghyllnox:
Yeah
DeM0nFiRe: Hahaha
SquareDotCube: what a beautiful relationship
TheMerricat:
"But they'll have different icons!"
SquareDotCube: Nintendo learns the usefulness of UUIDs
TXC2: imagine if these had been on the VGAs or the Summer games fest
Marvoleath: "A bundle of 2x Piece by Piece? So it's like a co-op game for 2 players?
ErynTzun: Indie directs exist for a reason
ErynTzun: But yeah I guess they have to pay to advertise on them
aerolend: Make Half-Life 3.
ErynTzun: Help each other out
Snowcookies: lmao
RockPusher: I mean, how many Checkpoints are there?
ErynTzun: Does not own rights to game lol
Lysander_salamander:
KaleidoscopeMind: but could you sponsor one?
ContingentCat: no braincells
BusTed:
TheCactaceae: we'll make our OWN Checkpoint, with uh... Buck Bumble's 30th anniversary!
TXC2: I mean, didn't like 5 podcasts all start at the same time as LRR's with "countdown to Infinity" ?
SquareDotCube: Is the orange cat Gus and does it stay with Ben?
Frankenfruity subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 129 months, currently on a 129 month streak!
Frankenfruity: I have an orange cat named Adrian!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, Frankenfruity! (Today's storm count: 16)
ErynTzun: Yes cute stuffies are the way, wild animals very destructive
shometatersalad: Must kitty at start
SquareDotCube: no lynxes either
shometatersalad: but ocelot!
GapFiller: no pet tigers then eh ?Heather
mtvcdm: !advice
LRRbot: Mantle on the teeth.
shometatersalad: what about a sandcat?
RockPusher: Have the tiger simply eat the strata board
hyalopterous: Order an office chair get a bobcat
ace_of_dragon037: can beej have orange kitty plushie
calculated_uncertainties: Are savanah cats still a thing?
LilyOfTheVeil666: Polydactl cats exist
BusTed: big ol' murder mittens
TXC2: !addquote (Beej) [now] I just want a kitty with MASSIVE PAWS!
LRRbot: New quote #9719: "I just want a kitty with MASSIVE PAWS!" —Beej [2026-11-13]
eid010n: Siberian cats have MASSIVE PAWS
Lysander_salamander: Thanks for the news! Have a good afternoon
TXC2: !ytmember

TXC2: !store
LRRbot:
Have you been needing more drinkware options, or maybe stationery? Then boy howdy does the LRR Store have new goodies for you!

DoodlestheGreat: 10 q 4 strem
shometatersalad: that's a 13
TheAinMAP:
TXC2: thanks for streaming Heather, Paul and Beej
TheAinMAP: Thank you for streaming.
TheMerricat: For anyone else whose phone has been pinging since mid-stream and have been doing their best to avoid looking at it because it looked like Bad News. FAA has declared ground stop nationwise (no planes allowed to take off), it doesn't seem like it's an attack they are blaming a telcom issue but ATCs are down. So... despite the impact it sounds like it's not anything 'big' in terms of bad stuff happening.
ErynTzun:
Ty for Strim 
shometatersalad: thanks for the stream, stay safe out there

RockPusher:

Juliamon: (this is a joke)
TheMerricat: @Juliamon Not Zero.
TXC2: my money is on the AI "helper" they're rolling out nationwide
Juliamon: like, it's *probably* not, but you really cannot ever fully rule them out

RockPusher: "Just a couple of weeks ago, the Federal Aviation Administration pledged to replace systems that still rely on floppy discs - a form of local data storage that was commonplace in the 1980s and 90s - by the end of 2028." - The BBC explaining floppies really hit me in the aging
TheMerricat:
I still have a briefcase full of floppies from my college days because I couldn't afford a PC and had to use the lab PC's. Was so stoked when Zip drives became a thing. Then utterly devastated when one died and I realized how many floppies of data I just lost.
