12:50 * solios wonders what ATC would look like with executive meddling
12:52 < xeno> solios: it would probably look like a pile of money
12:54 < xeno> and there'd be an american remake with brad pitt as west, walken as malkin, ewan macgregor as polaski
12:54 * xeno thinks
12:54 < xeno> probably a bunch of other actors too

10:03 < xeno> Technically speaking, it's currently serviceable, but it hasn't sailed since the 90s, and hasn't fired its guns in anger since Korea
10:04 < xeno> meanwhile the Missouri was used as recently as the first Gulf War

16:38 < solios> I saw some of an ep once in a bar
16:38 < solios> with subtitles
16:38 < solios> it was The Sitcom, and not a particularly good one
16:42 < ejp> it's horrible.
16:43 < solios> struck me as The IT Crowd shoved in an industrial washing machine with a bottle of bleach, set for "bland" and let run until the only difference between the sitcom and the demographically-targeted advertising is the pace of the editing.

It would appear that the people responsible for writing patch notes are just as sick of writing patch notes as I am of downloading patches every time I launch the fucking client.

More fun with TES4 : Oblivion. See previous for class details.
09:30 <solios> I can do spellcraft now
09:30 <solios> I made Pants Of Looting
09:30 <solios> (put strongest Feather I could on greaves)
09:30 <solios> I also made min duration on-self "trainer" spells because fucking hell, Restoration just Does Not Rise
09:38 <solios> oh, yeah.
09:39 <solios> main reason I finally figured out the speech game is the last guild quest I did
09:39 <solios> jerkass with a staff hated the shit out of me even with Powerful charm magic (scrolls given by the questgiver, better than what I had)
09:39 <solios> wiki said he had to have a disposition of 70. o_o
09:40 <solios> I managed to game him from 30 to 55-ish and the spell toook it the rest of the way
10:57 <solios> also, I think I'm going to Underlevel or whatever it's called in oblivion
10:57 <solios> when I was 1-4 I was killing shit Superfast.
10:58 <solios> now to get that same degree of pwnage I have to drop the difficulty slider
10:58 <solios> "shit levels with you" means if I try to kill a timber wolf with a mace, I die. :P
10:59 <solios> it also means I got a dwarven shield off a fucking GOBLIN.

Thanks to this page (and this one), loc.dcr now has a totally retro-looking spiffy comment box. Comments are active on new entries for the time being. Comments remain disabled for the old loc.
Oh, and everything is templated. RSS feed, comment preview and confirm, pages, etc. The only real "quirk" to the new setup is that category pages look goofball without a category description. I could probably sort that with an mt:if, but I'd have to care enough to dig into it, and I don't.
Old loc entries will continue to list in the RSS feed and on the front page until we've created 20 new entries. At our current rate, old should stop being near the new in late August.
August of 2019.

loc.dcr has finally been relocated from gridlock to elsewhere. The old blog has been imported into the domain CMS and I just spent the last four hours editing seven years of IRC logs to display properly. I was also managing a mostly automated batch action on another machine, so the tedium was spread out. I was multitasking.
It's going to be at least a few days before I'll have time to bust out proper templating, and Skyrim is about to give xeno's scrotum a good yank.
So until either of us have the time or care to give a shit, loc.dcr is rolling with the MT4 default templates in an accessible-but-unlisted directory.
And there was much rejoicing.
