<@Smiler> oh right i forgot there are even more characters than there are on that list because some characters have costumes that make them into completely different characters
<@Smiler> like Aqua has a costume that just turns her into Kizuna Ai
<Brentai> Excuse me they're called Echo Heroes
<@Smiler> instead of sephiroth you can just have gackt
<Brentai> You mean Genesis.
<Brentai> Is he listed as Genesis or as Gackt?
<@Smiler> its genesis
<@Smiler> i guess we have to be specific here
<Brentai> It's important, Genesis has a wing.
<Brentai> He also denesis what nintendenesis.

<@Romosome> does anyone else's parent get those old-people catalogs
<@Romosome> with old people clothes and mobility gadgets and the pages in the center that are just flat out sex toys
<@Smiler> ahaha romo
<@Smiler> my grandma used to get those
<+BongoBill> I hope I never learn what catalogs my parents get.
<@Romosome> Smiler the ones grandma used to get were like low key about it
<@Romosome> like they'd just sneak in this one picture of an old lady holding a vibrator to her neck and call it a "massager"
<@patito> listen old people gotta get it on somehow
<@Smiler> romo no i don't think you actually understand
<@Romosome> now the centerfold is just straight up rabbit clit tickler vibrators
<@Smiler> oh okay
<@Smiler> yeah
<@Smiler> that is 100% what has happened to those catalogues
<@Romosome> there's like fleshlights and shit
<@Romosome> it's wild
<@Romosome> this one is THE PYRAMID COLLECTION and every single item description is a gem
<fbm> my dad mostly gets SUPER VITALITY PILLS THE DOCTORSDON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT HARVESTED DEEP IN THE MYSTICAL ORIENT BY 200 YEAR OLD TIBETAN MONKS AND SHOT INTO SPACE BY BIG PHARMA TO KEEP YOU FROM LIVING FOREVER AND RECOVERING YOUR VIRILITY YOURS FOR 3 PAYMENTS OF 49.99

<Brentai> Mongrel is 40 today.
<leeham> I would make fun of him but I don't want to think about how close I am to the big four oh either
<@Romosome> we said this about our 30s
<@Romosome> I'm glad we'll be in #finalfight in our 60s
<Brentai> 40 is probably the most traumatic transition though.
<leeham> 40 is officially middle-aged
<leeham> 29-year-olds bitching about turning 30 are the most insufferable people on earth
<+BongoBill> I'm 30.
<Brentai> Go away.
<@Romosome> you're only saying that because we aren't them anymore tho
<@Romosome> also I thought 35 was middle aged
<@Romosome> when am I supposed to have a mid-life crisis
<leeham> nah not really I was over it by the time I hit 30
<@Romosome> I feel like I've just had one ongoing whole-life crisis
<leeham> it was pretty whatever
<Brentai> The millennial midlife crisis begins at 23.
<leeham> though I was probably already resigned to death since I started balding at 22
<Brentai> Being 36 and single means I hear the Sonic drowning theme every time I go to bed.

I think my midlife crisis started about six years ago, though on the bright side it's been dissipating for a few years now, especially since I decided what I actually wanted to do (and am already half-doing as it is).

In any case, I think 50 is the true crisis age now. We can keep hiding under the table for a bit longer yet.

<JSexton> I wonder how much pdp's viewership would change by if all of his content was changed to, say, footage of a can of furniture polish
<QED2> more likely he'd use a can of polish remover

<@Romosome> if they make a Witcher movie I want Christopher Lambert to play geralt
<@Romosome> or however you say his name
<Brentai> They're already making a Witcher TV show, it's whatsisface in a terrible wig.
<+Mazian> You don't _hire_ Lambert. He just shows up on set and starts backflipping.
<Lady> you have to make a movie around him
<Lady> 'we've got reports that christopher lambert is backflipping in Las Vegas, gather the crew'

<@Cait> Is ()--() a palindrome?
<Lady> hmm, it has symmetry like a palindrome, but idk if those have to be letters or if anything is fair game
<@Cait> ()--)( is a palindrome.
<Lady> ...
<Lady> don't fuck with me xD
<Lady> I think ()--() qualifies under word palindrome guidelines
<beatbandito> https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ ... nction.jpg so then what is this?
<Brentai> Goatse.
<Lady> mathematical symbol
<beatbandito> YOU'RE a mathematical symbol
<@Cait> I'm looking at the instructions for the World Puzzle Federation Grand Prix this weekend, one of the puzzlethings is spotting palindromes. They gave those as examples of not a palindrome, yes a palindrome.
<beatbandito> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0362004/ I know this is a palindrome
<beatbandito> it was okay
<Lady> hmm
<Lady> imo, if they're going to be pedantic like that, I don't think I'd have much fun
<Brentai> The Palin-Drome is where Arc fights for his survival every day, waiting for his comrades to come break him out.

<Puggsley> Sheesh you gotta look at it half full mate.....
<Ezz> Odd saying that. I never really knew which way to approach it.
<Ezz> Half full implies that someone short filled you, probably thru bad head management or shitty tap skills. While half empty sounds like you've already had half of it, so at the very least you're half a beer in.

Context: Romo works as a sub teacher and was present at a sex ed class with 6th graders, they brought in a nurse and she could only say what was in her notes and Romo could not speak

<@Romosome> hum
<@Romosome> did you guys know that while most penile fractures occur during heterosexual sex with the woman on top
<@Romosome> about 14% are inflicted during "aggressive masturbation"

<Friday> "can you break your dick"
<Friday> *nurse checks notes*
<Friday> "I am not allowed to answer"
<Romosome> lol
<Romosome> no it's even worse she said no!
<Friday> oh god
<Romosome> and I couldn't correct her!
<Friday> fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
<Romosome> THAT KID IS GONNA BREAK HIS DICK
<Romosome> AND IT WILL BE OUR FAULT
<Friday> yeah this is how
<Friday> that 14% exists
<Romosome> "dude the nurse told me you can't break it"
<Romosome> "is the camera running"

<Fridusa> man why do humans even fuck around with marriage
<Fridusa> just abolish the conditions leading to infidelity

* Brentai cheats on Friday with... gusto.
* beatbandito is now known as gusto
<Fridusa> You are a terrible manga author/artist. Drawing high school girls and 900 year old lolis getting piped by tentacles. I did nut. But I am disappointed with your choices
<Brentai> I wish I could draw 900 year old lolis getting piped by tentacles.
<Fridusa> Every dream begins with a first step, Brentai
<Fridusa> first, draw the perfectly flat female chest
<Brentai> Best I can do is a 600 year old roly-poly getting pulped by mandibles.

In regards to the whole "Don Jr. Can't be prosecuted for conspiracy to break the law because he's literally too stupid to know he was breaking the law" thing:

<Cannonball Fun> "I need to contact Russia. Send me the dumbest of my children."
<Cannonball Fun> "Donald Trump Jr, please contact Russia for me"
<ToadBrews> Don Jr.: "yes papa" *runs straight into wall, out cold*
[....]
<ToadBrews> "yes hello Russia? This is junior. I have mission for you"
<Cannonball Fun> Trump senior: "Son"
<Cannonball Fun> Junior: "Yes papa"
<Cannonball Fun> S: "You need to use the real phone, not the sesame street phone"

In regards to the talk about using machine learning to up-resolution old games.

<Fry Guy> https://twitter.com/HBJohnXuandou/statu ... 3219389440
<Mongrel> The truly crazy thing is that "Computer... enhance" is actually becoming a sorta-real thing.
<Glocks4Interns> Yeah, woops on making so much fun of that.
<Glocks4Interns> What's also cool is there is now tech to enhance current games with deep learning
<Glocks4Interns> according to Nvidia marketing it can be faster to fill pixels with machine learning than to actually render them real time. <Glocks4Interns> Not sure how well developed it is but sure is cool. (Think they call it DLSS or something)
<fmm> I watched an SVU episode recently (not a recent episode, I don't think) where they had the perp on some security cam but it was a pretty blurry image, they enhanced it using this kind of technology and it was clearly him
<fmm> but then the defense attorney was like "well, that's not actually an image of what was going on there, that's just a computer's guess as to what it would look like." pretty convincing
<Glocks4Interns> Man, that has aged quite well.
<Rylinks> would that even be admissible?
<Rylinks> at the very least you'd have to be able to cross-examine the person who enhanced it, right?
<fmm> "Can you describe for the court the process by which you modified the image in question?"
<fmm> "I said, out loud, 'enhance. enhance. enhance.' Like that."

I've always thought that making fun of "enhance" on cop shows was perfectly fair game but making fun of it in Blade Runner wasn't, because if you've got AI so sophisticated that it can pass for human unless you ask it a series of questions about cruelty to animals, of course you've already developed AI that can look at patterns and make reasonable assumptions about details that the camera didn't pick up. The latter is a fuck of a lot simpler than the former (as we're seeing).

Also because CSI will look at ten seconds of a random security camera's footage, say "stop there, now enhance" once and get a fucking VIN number. Meanwhile Deckard* spent like five hours going over everything multiple times and at the end was like "I think that looks like a human face".

*I definitely didn't originally think he was the old guy from Diablo.

I think my favourite riff on the phenomenon was the Space Ghost episode (king Dead, IIRC), where he tells the computer to enhance down to the point where a single pixel fills the whole screen, and he starts making this wild analysis while in the background the computer is just repeating "Yellow... block... yellow... block."
