< Rex>
How's it going?
03:18
< Rex>
XCOM is kicking my butt again.
03:18
< Rex>
Dern aliens.
03:18
< locas>
I'm watching Samurai Flamenco
03:18
< locas>
it's okay
03:23
< Rex>
Never heard of it.
03:24
< locas>
someone just recommended it to me
03:24
< locas>
and I've been dreadfully bored
03:24
< locas>
it's funny
03:26
< Rex>
I would offer a suggestion, but you aren't really a fan of sports so I'll shut my trap.
03:27 * mraichelson is watching tosh.0 and it is still as useless as ever
03:27 * mraichelson drags himself to the remote
03:27
< locas>
is it ping pong?
03:27
< locas>
I'll probably get around to watching that
03:28
< locas>
I don't REALLY hate sports, I just hate...professional sports, sports fans, nationalism that results from sporting events, etc
03:29
< Rex>
Never watch Muv Luv Total Eclipse.
03:29
< Rex>
It made me realize that nationalism is just as bad as racism.
03:30
< locas>
nationalism is p bad, yeah
03:37
< Rex>
I'm getting really tired of this...
03:37
< locas>
aliens?
03:39
< Rex>
I keep posting in the general to get people's attention and they keep asking for parts lists and instructions like I'm some sort of Lego Zoltar Speaks or something.
03:40
< Rex>
No matter how many times I say I don't know shit.
03:41
< locas>
lol
03:44
< Rex>
I mean really, my stuff is so bad I keep it on Photobucket in the hopes no one can see it.
03:47
< locas>
I literally couldn't see your images at first, because they were on photobucket
03:47
< locas>
had to enable javascript :P
03:48
< Rex>
My plan is working, then.
03:48
< Rex>
When I decide to get back into LDD I think I'm going to work on a Cyberdisk.
03:50
< Rex>
Actually, that might be a bit ambitious.
03:51
< locas>
I had to google it
03:51
< locas>
looks scary
03:52
< Rex>
Scary to build.
03:52
< Rex>
I'll give it a shot later. Gotta learn and stuff.
03:55
< Rex>
I can clearly envision half of it and what parts could work to achieve it, but the plates look like a pain.

'Morning
10:41
< shadowclasper>
morning
10:42
< Rex>
I just pulled an all nighter.
10:43
< Rex>
I'm going to regret that later.
10:45
< shadowclasper>
you should sleep now >>;
10:45
< locas>
:|
10:45
< locas>
I woke up after only like 5 hours sleep
10:45
< locas>
hoping to get in a nap
10:48
< Rex>
I have a thing later and a party tonight.
10:48
< Rex>
I'm going to be a zombie by the end of the day.
10:50
< Rex>
I spent a full hour in LDD trying to make an an idea work.
10:50
< Rex>
I don't really think it can be done.
11:06
< shadowclasper>
dude. Set an alarm right by your head, several of them
11:06
< shadowclasper>
get your head down for a full rem cycle
11:06
< shadowclasper>
3 hours
11:06
< shadowclasper>
I've worked on crunch time. I know about sleep debt management
11:09
< Rex>
I probably will later.
11:10
< locas>
I've never had luck with that sort of thing, because no matter when I set the alarm, I stay awake and fidget until the moment where falling asleep will result in me waking up at exactly the wrong part of my sleep cycle
11:10
< locas>
how do you manage that
11:12
< Rex>
My problem is when I'm tired and I don't have anything I NEED to do...
11:12
< Rex>
I just lay back down.
11:15
< Rex>
I sometimes sleep through my alarms when I'm super tired. I used to sleep through harrier jets zooming over our house and an earthquake once.
11:26
< Rex>
How is LDD suck a piece of junk when it comes to connections?
11:27
< Rex>
I'm some sort of idiot, because I figured out how to accomplish this shoulder I've been trying to make work but LDD is flipping out.
11:29
< locas>
I just don't have the patience for LDD
11:29
< locas>
lego is relaxing
11:29
< locas>
LDD is...not
11:29
< Rex>
Now I have another problem.
11:30
< Rex>
Is a shoulder that can only rotate in one direction bad?
11:30
< Rex>
I mean, rotate on one axis, I guess.
11:30
< locas>
it depends on the axis
11:31
< locas>
for frames, at least frames you're going to PLAY with, I think the illusion of motion is much more important than real articulation
11:31
< locas>
that's why I'm not a fan of the popular "super chub"
11:31
< locas>
frames don't need to be action figures, they just need to LOOK actionable
11:31
< Rex>
I'm not so sure on this one.
11:33
< Rex>
Well...
11:34
< Rex>
On the bright side...this shoulder forces me to make and entirely original frame.
11:34
< Rex>
I guess.
11:41
< Rex>
So what's this about super chubs and articulation?
11:45
< locas>
uh
11:45
< locas>
I dunno
11:45
< locas>
well like
11:45
< locas>
some people care about articulation
11:45
< locas>
and some people care about outline
11:45
< locas>
I care about outline
11:45
< locas>
for mf0 at least
11:45
< locas>
and I thought that was related to shoulders that only articulate on one axis
11:45
< Rex>
I see...
11:46
< Rex>
It doesn't matter, it cannot be done.
11:46
< locas>
heh
11:47
< Rex>
I could link you a picture, but I'm positive that there just isn't a viable option for this particular thing.
11:48
< locas>
well I am curious, I admit
11:49
< Rex>
Essentially I'm trying to make a Rumble Monkey helmet shoulder fit on an arm that can bend at the elbow.
11:50
< locas>
could maybe do it with hinge plates
11:51
< locas>
though it would look lankier than a rumble monkey
12:02
< Rex>
http://s1279.photobucket.com/user/Tango_Sierra/media/Gunslinger_zps171f2afc.png. html?sort=3&o=0
12:02
< Rex>
That's kind of what I'm doing for, but there isn't a good way to attach it to the body.
12:03
< locas>
yeah, that's one of those things where I just don't think the articulation is worth it at this scale
12:03
< locas>
but there are plenty of people who disagree and make articulate frames
12:03
< locas>
I'm just not one of them, so I don't really know where to point you
12:04
< Rex>
I don't care about articulation. really.
12:04
< Rex>
Some is necessary, though I guess.
12:06
< Rex>
I can't figure out a way to attach that arm. The bars/rods are either too short or way too long.
12:07
< locas>
I confused, it looks attached
12:07
< locas>
already
12:08
< Rex>
I don't know, I can't be happy looking at that though.
12:08
< Rex>
It's flimsy and it would be super wide.
12:12
< Rex>
Maybe I'll just have to commit some heresy.

Oh hai.
20:39
< Ced23Ric>
To make a new general or not to make a new general.
20:40
< Rex>
Hm...
20:40
< Rex>
I'd wait until tomorrow.
20:40
< Ced23Ric>
You start to feel my exhaustion too, eh?
20:40
< Rex>
Bumping when no one's around isn't fun.
20:40
< Rex>
So I suppose.
20:40
< Ced23Ric>
Yeah.
20:42
< Rex>
Since today is a holiday and people will be getting drunk and throwing money away on cheap explosives...
20:42
< Rex>
Because freedom or some shit.
20:42
< Rex>
Tomorrow would probably be best.
20:43
< locas>
fucking america
20:43
< locas>
blow up something useful
20:44
< Rex>
That seems even more counter productive.
20:45
< locas>
hm, well
20:45
< locas>
you got me there
20:45
< locas>
blow up something that deserves it*
20:45
< Rex>
I'm with you there.
20:46
< Rex>
Did you post anything after my last post, Ced?
20:46
< Ced23Ric>
A bump.
20:46
< Ced23Ric>
Then I realized we were at the bump limit.
20:46
< Rex>
Well then!
20:47
< Rex>
Not a bad way for it to go, then.
20:47
< Ced23Ric>
Nah, it died of natural causes.
20:47
< Rex>
It lived a good life. Like 4 days or something?
20:47
< Ced23Ric>
Yeah.
20:49
< Rex>
rip
20:49
< Rex>
I'd still wait until tomorrow.
20:50
< Rex>
In the meantime I thinking I should hit up my comic store.
20:50
< locas>
COMICS
20:50
< locas>
what do you like
20:50
< locas>
it's been ages since I've been in a comic store
20:52
< Ced23Ric>
I read a couple Judge Dredd comics today.
20:53
< Rex>
What do I like?
20:53
< locas>
like comics
20:53
< locas>
what comics do you like
20:53
< Rex>
Shit, I dunno.
20:53
< locas>
or more accurately, why are you going to the comic store *_*
20:53
< locas>
if not for comics
20:55
< Rex>
Well, I want to ensure that I'm seen as a regular before I ask to use their store and tables for a lego fitan robit game that they don't sell and can't really make money off of.
20:57
< Rex>
But I kind of like Transformers.
20:57
< Rex>
Black Science is pretty cool.
20:58
< Rex>
I read Teen Titans and Superboy frequently.
20:58
< locas>
pretty much the only thing that is actively published that I buy is hellboy I guess
20:58
< Ced23Ric>
I only know the prior from r34.
20:58
< locas>
I buy any love and rockets collections that come out
20:59
< Rex>
Deathstroke is joining Suicide Squad, so that's got me in a little fan girl squealing fit.
20:59
< Rex>
Transformers?
20:59
< Rex>
You've...
20:59
< Rex>
Never seen the Transformers movie?
20:59
< Rex>
The '86 movie?
21:00
< locas>
I've seen that movie so many times -_-
21:00
< Rex>
Best movie ever.
21:00
< Rex>
I'm biased.
21:00
< Rex>
And I actually don't see Hellboy comics.
21:02
< locas>
hellboy is the beest
21:14
< Rex>
Del Toro is the best.
21:14
< Rex>
<3
21:18
< Rex>
Gotta go.
21:18
< Rex>
Peace outtie.
21:21
< Ced23Ric>
bye
21:45
< locas>
blegh
21:45
< locas>
I don't like the del toro hellboy movies

< locas>
sorry to hear that Rex
23:44 * locas just picked berries and is super happy about it
23:44
< locas>
hey Soren
23:44
< Soren>
Hey.
23:46
< locas>
Soren, I read FSS
23:46
< locas>
I dug it
23:46
< Soren>
I thought you would!
23:46
< locas>
I haven't read volume 27 yet
23:46
< locas>
I'm SAVING it
23:46
< Soren>
Ohoho.
23:46
< locas>
but yeah
23:46
< locas>
totally insane
23:46
< locas>
and awesome
23:47
< Soren>
yep.
23:47
< locas>
at first I tried not to read the timeline
23:47
< locas>
because SPOILERS
23:47
< locas>
but then I realized it didn't really matter
23:47
< Soren>
Nope.
23:47
< Soren>
Well, when you look at whatās already there, and whatās in the timeline, itās fairly clear that the timeline leaves out everything thatās moving and interesting about those stories.
23:48
< locas>
yeah
23:48
< locas>
and at times it prevents you from being totally lost
23:48
< locas>
just gives a vague context, which is something you desperately need
23:48
< locas>
anyway yeah it was awesome
23:49
< locas>
I watched the movie too which was underwhelming
23:49
< Soren>
mm.
23:49
< locas>
I mean it was beautiful
23:49
< locas>
but it was essentially just a teaser
23:49
< Soren>
Itās pretty clear that the story starts where it does because itās the only place you can start, but itās easily the least cool part of the story.
23:49
< locas>
yeah
23:50
< locas>
that's the issue
23:50
< Soren>
I probably would have chosen to animate Traffics as a short OVA.
23:50
< locas>
that would've been excellent
23:50
< Soren>
Because, hey, thatās a compelling little story, and Bang Doll.
23:53
< locas>
I'm itching to try to build a MH now
23:54
< locas>
I'm also literally itching
23:54
< locas>
hopefully not from poison ivy
23:54
< locas>
I think I'm going to check one more spot for berries
23:54
< locas>
before I shower
23:54
< locas>
back in a bit
23:55
< Rex>
LDD isn't being very agreeable right now.
