I saw it in the shop (it was hiding badly), went I can take this on, and shift-F'd its face. 11:45 ah 11:45 hey well no risk no gain 11:45 <@Tone> Nah, definitely should have engraved Elbereth and not tried to kill it, imo 11:45 something like that 11:45 you wernt too far in, no big deal really 11:46 Call it a learning experience. 11:46 Yep 11:46 call it an excuse to make a drink 11:46 Giant mimics are way more than you can handle at that stage of the game. 11:46 !booze Gaelan 11:46 * Beholder delivers Gaelan a pint of the hard stuff, fermented by FCCBot at 24 degrees Celsius. 11:46 <@Tone> If it makes you feel any better, that's a mid-to-late game monster that really shouldn't be spawning that early 11:46 ya know what? I've got no excuse not to actually be productive now 11:46 But they're slow, so you can usually get Elbereth engraved successfully. 11:46 Then wait until their turn comes up, and they see it and flee, releasing you. 11:46 And then *you* flee. 11:47 EPI: bump mimic speed to 24 11:47 ouch 11:47 That would be harsh. 11:47 :) 11:47 yeah that would be overkill 11:47 i think im gunna make a dockerized zapm 11:47 imo the smaller ones should be faster than the bigger ones 11:47 less damage output tho 11:48 it's really annoying to set up outside of building from source, it's not safe to package for multiuser 11:48 hey winny 11:48 <@luxidream> wait!

In theory. If you could find any peripherals that supported it. 13:33 i had an external hard drive with firewire 800 13:33 but that was about it iirc 13:34 and that was like 10 years ago 13:34 Oh, there were some. MOstly expensive high-end stuff. 13:34 My sister got an iphone and everyone in my family is mad at her because it's the only lightning device in the house we now need to have chargers lying around for 13:35 haha 13:35 When Apple *started* using USB, nothing else used it hardly at all. (This was before 2.0 and the USB mass storage device.) When they started selling devices with *no* USB ports, in contrast, every household in the developed world had at least twenty USB peripherals sitting around. 13:36 apple made the correct call a few years ago that you don't need optical drives in your laptops 13:36 USB is not the only port type they've done this with. 13:36 stenno: I'm still pissed that no laptops have optical drives anymore 13:36 Some still do. 13:36 Not Apple ones. 13:36 But some. 13:36 But yes, many users don't feel they need that. 13:36 why would you need optical drives in these days and age 13:36 Yeah, they tend to be the really high-end ones 13:37 Personally, I have no use for a laptop that doesn't have an optical drive. 13:37 stenno: Installing stuff mostly 13:37 maybe for listening to audio cds 13:37 Because installing operating systems would be such a pain, it just wouldn't be worth it. 13:37 shrug 13:37 I realize, not everyone wants to install an OS on their laptop. Many people are happy with what it comes with. 13:38 I'm... perhaps not entirely typical. 13:38 Not just operatins systems 13:38 not everyone also has no internet connection for the netinstall apparently 13:38 I think most of the people who do are able to boot from a USB device, so you may occupy some curious middle ground. 13:38 PavelB: Most other stuff, you can transfer over the network from a desktop with an optical drive. 13:38 But to do that, you need a running OS. 13:38 Yeah but that's annoying enough that I want an optical drive on my laptop 13:38 jonadab: when i order a laptop for personal use, i usually request it come with a blank drive 13:38 i dont want all the bloatware 13:39 idk when i last wanted to install something from a cd 13:39 Or you can install the OS over the network from a desktop with an optical drive. 13:39 Also, I don't know if you've noticed but there's a trend to not include optical drives on *desktops* 13:39 optical drives are so 90's 13:39 Pinkbeast: or netinstall over internet 13:39 -!- Porkman has joined #hardfought 13:40 What I really want is a firmware that doesn't care what OS I install. 13:40 I had to return my case when I was building my desktop after I realized it didn't have a 5.25 inch drive bay 13:40 Ordered a new one 13:40 Translation: anything but UEFI. 13:40 Classic BIOS? 13:41 Well, Award BIOS is good. 13:41 I don't think I want to go back to AMI/Phoenix. 13:41 Unless they've been updated in the last twenty years. 13:43 -!- tacco\unfoog has quit [] 13:44 I don't think I've really ever had UEFI-related problems 13:44 But then again I've never used anything other than UEFI 13:48 anyway now that i have no headphones really i still cannot listen to my good music 13:48 no good headphones 13:49 just blare it for everyone around to hear 13:49 they'll appreciate it 13:49 not an option 13:50 it'll be an insult to the music if i listened to it on phone speakers :v 13:55 [hdf-us] [nh362] Luxidream (Rog Orc Fem Cha) made her first wish - "blessed greased fixed +2 gray dragon scale mail", on T:4557 14:09 -!- stennowork has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 14:19 [hdf-us] [sp] k2 (Wiz Dwa Mal Neu), 12448 points, T:6051, killed by a soldier ant 14:28 [hdf-us] [sp] k2 (Wiz Dwa Mal Neu), 0 points, T:7, killed by a falling object 14:28 !setmintc 300 14:28 K2: [hdf-au][hdf-eu][hdf-us] Min reported turncount for k2 set to 300 14:33 Hippocrates wields a silver dagger!

Except it didn't remove what it replaced, but that's normal for Slash'EM. 18:43 <@luxidream> slashem added elfrist and giantkiller 18:44 <@luxidream> well, no, just elfrist 18:44 <@luxidream> technically thiefbane is an @ bane 18:45 Yes, but Slash'EM also added things like the Bat from Hell. 18:47 jonadab: I don't think that adding more artis and *not removing banes* counts as "replacing the banes" 18:47 I mean, that's how Slash'EM replaces things. 18:47 We nearly did persuade Ali Harlow to effectively get rid of the assault rifles :-/ 18:48 <@luxidream> slash'em also has gypsies 18:48 <@luxidream> not sure how that got past testing but okay 18:48 "testing" 18:49 <@luxidream> it's also probably the most racist thing in a variant unless slex can prove me otherwise 18:49 For example, Slash'EM replaced zruty with Aussie animals. But then it also has zruty, in Y. 18:49 Because of course it does. 18:49 got past testing as in, racism, or got past testing as in, it's unbalanced? 18:49 <@luxidream> both 18:49 @luxidream: does some roles starting with a small Asian girl as a pet count as racist? 18:51 <@luxidream> hmm 18:51 <{Demo}1> gypsies is racist? what? 18:51 {Demo}1: cultural appropriation is considered racist now. 18:52 <@luxidream> I thought it was considered offensive, correct me if I'm wrong though 18:53 So if you're a white American and you like chicken chow mein, that's racist. 18:53 Because of course it is. 18:53 jonadab: It's not clear that hyperbolic lies will really help a sensible discussion here. 19:09 <@Xaleth> Agreed. 19:10 [hdf-us] [nh362] eraserhead97 (Bar Hum Fem Cha) had Cleaver bestowed upon her by Set, on T:5789 19:11 [hdf-us] [un] bouquet (Cav Hum Fem Law), 1549 points, T:2668, killed by a rothe 19:12 <@luxidream> @Xaleth have you ascended yet 19:13 [hdf-us] [nh362] RedArrow (Pri Hum Fem Neu), 722 points, T:1022, killed by a werejackal 19:13 <@Xaleth> Haven't played NH in about three to four weeks now aside from the occasional runs here and there to kill time during school. 19:14 <@Xaleth> No I haven't. 19:15 [hdf-us] [sp] k2 (Wiz Dwa Mal Neu) rejected atheism with a prayer, on T:5940 19:18 [hdf-us] [nh362] RedArrow (Hea Hum Mal Neu), 168 points, T:466, killed by a dwarf 19:19 <@luxidream> dang, I remember you were pretty close 19:20 [hdf-us] [nh362] RedArrow (Wiz Orc Mal Cha), 53 points, T:187, killed by a jackal 19:21 <@Xaleth> Yeah, managed to make it to the valley of the dead but my poor strategy by barely paying attention was my bane. 19:22 <@luxidream> the trick to overcoming that is becoming so powerful it doesn't even matter if you're paying attention or not 19:22 Or at any rate to wear an amulet of wake up call ^W^W^W lifesaving 19:23 <@luxidream> amulet versus idiocy is helpful too 19:25 I'd say I'm pretty good at playing NetHack, except I excel at not paying attention 19:25 This is what kills 90% of my games 19:25 It also explains why I never use anything other than LS in the amulet slot, ever 19:25 <@luxidream> FIQ: from watching you play I thought you had more fun not enchanting your armor, etc 19:26 I am also prone to playing risky 19:28 [hdf-us] [nh362] eraserhead97 (Bar Hum Fem Cha) changed form for the first time, becoming a black pudding, on T:7012 19:40 [hdf-us] [slshm] luxor (Val Dop Fem Neu), 2674 points, T:1614, killed by a giant ant 19:41 [hdf-us] [nh362] eraserhead97 (Bar Hum Fem Cha) acquired the luckstone from Mines' End, on T:7733 19:46 [hdf-us] [slshm] luxor (Val Dop Fem Neu), 994 points, T:1268, killed by a gnome 19:56 [hdf-us] [nh362] RedArrow (Kni Hum Mal Law), 4501 points, T:2453, quit 19:56 [hdf-us] [un] bouquet (Cav Hum Fem Law), 3574 points, T:3403, killed by a jaguar 20:01 [hdf-us] [nh362] Leggman (Arc Hum Mal Law), 343 points, T:1416, killed by a hobgoblin 20:24 [hdf-us] [nh362] Luxidream (Wiz Orc Mal Cha), 17853 points, T:11207, killed by a yeti 20:25 -!- stenno_ has joined #hardfought 20:36 [hdf-us] [nh362] arnibald (Rog Hum Mal Cha), 1134 points, T:3050, killed by an invisible werejackal 20:37 [hdf-us] [nh362] eraserhead97 (Bar Hum Fem Cha), 22503 points, T:8930, killed by a soldier ant 21:00 [hdf-us] [nh362] arnibald (Rog Hum Mal Cha) consumed animal products for the first time, by eating a jackal corpse, on T:3747 21:12 [hdf-us] [nh362] arnibald (Rog Hum Mal Cha) had Stormbringer bestowed upon him by Kos, on T:5327 21:31 is it reasonable to assume that if my pet wolf is unable to hit this dwarf that the dwarf's AC must be pretty good? 21:31 or is he just a bad dog? 21:32 The dwarf likely has pretty good armour. 21:37 <@carlarc> they can spawn with pretty good stuff 21:37 I killed a hard-to-hit dorf once expecting a mithril-coat and got +5 boots 21:38 <@carlarc> jesus christ gargoyles are insanely damaging 21:39 [hdf-us] [un] bouquet (Cav Hum Fem Law) killed the ghost of jailbird, the former Initiate, on T:4471 21:41 [hdf-us] [nh362] arnibald (Rog Hum Mal Cha) changed form for the first time by mimicking a pile of gold, on T:6761 21:46 Dwarf definitely shops at the +AC store.

(And what an excellent idea removing choking is!) 23:28 <{Demo}1> i swear some other variant does it 23:28 <{Demo}1> i know slashem makes it worse 23:28 <{Demo}1> cause in slashem its even more unreliable 23:30 IIRC Slash'em has more oversize food, making it easier to be oversatiated. 23:30 It's pretty hard to do in vanilla without stone-to-flesh 23:31 <{Demo}1> in slashem youll get a warning that isnt a finally finished and it can still have you instadie if you eat something too soon 23:33 <@carlarc> oh maybe thats what i meant with the warning 23:37 [hdf-us] [nh362] arnibald (Rog Hum Mal Cha) became literate by reading a book, on T:13145 23:42 Pinkbeast: I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not re: it being an excellent idea to remove choking 23:44 -!- phinxy has joined #hardfought 23:45 -!- phinxy has quit [Client Quit] 23:46 <{Demo}1> it looks not sarcastic 23:46 -!- phinxy has joined #hardfought 23:47 It was not sarcastic at all, I think it is an excellent idea. 23:47 <{Demo}1> what other variant removes it? im trying to remember 23:48 I appreciate it's hard to tell but generally if I'm praising a terrible idea I'll outline one or two of the worst consequences for special praise. 23:48 -!- ProzacElf_ has joined #hardfought 23:48 -!- ProzacElf has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds] 23:54 <{Demo}1> how would a shopkeeper role work? 23:55 you spawn in a shop below DL1 and can only leave the shop to pursue goblins and gnomes and things that walk in and take things without paying 23:56 <{Demo}1> im not sure how you would be able to make the game work from that 23:57 {Demo}1: You wait for someone else to get the amulet, wander into your shop, and then you use your mimic allies to take him down and take the amulet for yourself 23:58 PavelB: No, at some point the High Priest of Moloch wanders in, takes one of your amulets, and runs off with it. Then the whole game is to get it back. 23:59 <{Demo}1> i also kind of want a role where you start as one of rodney's mercenaries 23:59 I like the idea of a mimic being the starting pet though :) 23:59 You get a unique spell, summon kops
