A: Do Unlocked Things Stay Unlocked After Paid Time Expires?

crack knuckles All right, as a 4.5+ year vet, I'll give you the rundown. It's a little confusing, even to us veteran VIPs, so I'll do my best to explain. Whether or not you decide to buy the game given the Free player restrictions is fairly subjective, so I can't answer that part. But I can expla...

WOAH

I really wish I could up vote that more than once. Damn.

WOAH.

I suggest?

ne'ermind, a link that already got shared from @GnomeSlice of all people

10:06 PM

@FallenAngelEyes I'm tempted to get you a medal for that answer.

That's... the highest answer-to-question ratio I've ever seen.

FallenAngelEyes

@ArdaXi That can't be more than tzenes

@FallenAngelEyes I can't give tzenes a medal though.

FallenAngelEyes

lol

Well thanks guys, I appreciate it. :) I put a lot of work into that one.

Q: Resident Evil 4 Professional - When to use and to not use ammo

When RE4 came out on PS2 I loved it, finished it (on normal) and forgot about it. Now that it's come out on XBOX 360 (yay) and of course has achievements, I'm trying to complete the professional mode. Honestly, it's pretty difficult, but obviously it's impossible. I've mastered the use of the k...

@ArdaXi I can give that one a run for it's money:

A: What are the exact triggers for initiating companion quests in Fallout: New Vegas?

So, this varies wildly by companion, but I'll try to run down all of them. Ed-E Quest: Ed-E My Love Trigger: Recruit Ed-E, then speak to Johnson Nash in Primm, either in his shop (after installing a new Sheriff), or at the Vicki and Vance (when you first arrive in town). Reward: If y...

And yeah, That's an amazing answer @FallenAngelEyes

user30

10:23 PM

HEY EVERYONE @ARDAXI HAS A FEMALE FRIEND

5

user30

ON THE TWITTER

user30

obligatory

@ThomasMcDonald Err. I've even had a female girlfriend.

user30

as opposed to a male girlfriend

user30

or a female boyfriend

10:24 PM

You don't want any of those.

user30

You speak from experience?

@ThomasMcDonald Maybe.

@LessPopMoreFizz I feel followed.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@ArdaXi I thought I was following you already. Twitter is a buggy service sometimes.

I wonder how many followers I have. Haven't checked in weeks.

195. Nice.

user30

ooh ruby 1.9.3

user30

10:28 PM

I, however, am working. and drinking.

user30

as I discovered earlier I have a series of integrals to do

user30

wrt inverse hyperbolics

user30

which are fun.

@ArdaXi Real or imaginary?

@Wipqozn Real. The bunny rabbit was imaginary.

user30

10:29 PM

in a sort of perverse way

@ArdaXi gotcha

user30

book for @Powerlord

user30

also another girl dressed up as chell. r/gaming gives her ALL the upvotes!

user30

I DONT CARE FOR HALLOWEEN

user30

well, that's not strictly true

10:32 PM

@ThomasMcDonald Have you been drinking?

user30

yes

@ThomasMcDonald go cry on /r/truegaming :P

or /r/puregaming

user30

no

user30

fwiw, I also upvoted

user30

hrm

10:34 PM

I dunno, those reddits always get pointed to as paragons of awesomeness whenever somebody gets sufficiently annoyed by three not-strictly-related stuff in a row

Q: How many gold you gain for a kill/assist in DotA?

As described by title, how many gold you gain for a kill or an assists in DotA/Dota 2? And how many gold you lose if you die?

defense-of-the-ancients dota-2

Honestly? Reddit ain't SE. I don't care about topicality.

Give me the "cheap content." It's all I need

user30

r/tf2 is perhaps the worst offender

user30

humm

user30

integral of 1/sqrt(x^2+4x+5),

10:36 PM

I only follow r/tf2 and r/minecraft, they both got pretty much the same text post saying "OMG IT SUCKS SO MUCH"

user30

wait what

perhaps it appears I only like reddits that suck.

user30

you only subscribe to two subreddits?

well those two and changelog, modnews, gamerec

but they hardly produce any volume

user30

you gotta subscribe to r/minecraftcirclejerk man

10:37 PM

@ThomasMcDonald sinh^(-1)(2+x) + c

user30

oh fucks sake

user30

I did the wrong substitution

user30

/completed the square wrong

I never realized how hard it is to build an adventure map.

user30

anyway, I need it in logs ;), got ln|sqrt((x+2)^2+1) + x + 2| now

user30

10:39 PM

or there abouts

user30

I completed it as x^2+4x+5 = (x-2)^2+1

@ThomasMcDonald I see what they did there with the vvote arrows

user30

which is, of course, complete bollocks

@ThomasMcDonald It is dangerous to go alone. Here, take this:

²

runs

@ThomasMcDonald log(2+x+sqrt(1+(2+x)^2))

Right. The same thing.

LessPop_MoreFizz

The only Reddits I read regularly are the various NYC and surrounds local subreddits.

All others are "I am bored I will click on this because all of my other content wells have run dry."

user30

ah

@LessPop_MoreFizz Wait, isn't that exactly the point of reddit?

user30

according to RES, these are on my go-to list

Well, except for promoting the

user30

10:42 PM

askreddit, askscience, Coffee, Fitness, Music, Minecraft, tf2, tf2trade, torrents, trackers, unitedkingdom

LessPop_MoreFizz

@badp Well, yes, but my point is that /r/nyc et al are 'click daily'. Whereas the front page, and various other subs are more in the 'click every 2-3 weeks' category.

goes check r/Amsterdam

hm... I'll give that subreddit a try.

user30

@badp yet again, I have to restrain myself from making a sweeping generalisation about Amsterdam.

user30

apart from last time I didn't refrain, and you deleted it.

That was about Italians

and I was in a bad mood

go ahead, make your day

user30

10:44 PM

I have refrained.

@badp Isn't that like /r/trees?

Fine

user30

I have also run out of beer

user30

until I get another one.

I'm from a suburb of Amsterdam so I can make generalizations about myself!

user30

10:45 PM

which are handily in a large box beneath my desk

@ArdaXi Probably the non-"tree" related subset of Amsterdam topics, from what I see

user30

@badp so it's lacking in content then?

@ThomasMcDonald Hey, isn't that the point of true* and pure* subreddits?

@ThomasMcDonald That's a sweeping generalisation!

"Totally not your last resort when you're trying to get content! We'll also let you down! Off to /b/ you go!"

user30

10:47 PM

exactly

I'm not interested in all the A'dam content down to the last drop. I'll happily, er, weed out some stuff.

user30

so why r/amsterdam?

Apparently there's a Reddit meetup the 12th.

user30

@badp OHOHOHO A PUN!

My bad pun for the day, good sir! Well spotted, truly.

Hey! Look! @Ronan's messing with his dad's account again!

goes ban him for impersonation

user30

10:49 PM

Ronan is pretty cool guy, eh makes gravatars for people and doesn't afraid of anything

5

Starred for (obvious) truth

Also I appear to be listening to smooth jazz nyan cat, which is probably what can come closest to weed without actually smoking it, so I can't really bring myself to ban anybody.

Luckily this particular loop is almost over.

user30

how exactly can a loop be over?

user30

isn't that the entire point of a loop?

user30

it loops.

The youtube video containing it ends.

user30

10:52 PM

user30

^ I recommend that next

And with nyan cat you can't really pull out the annotation trick, as the start non-loop stuff can't connect to the end of the loop

user30

alternatively, Fly From Here by Yes is pretty whacky in places if you're looking to continue the bizzare theme

What? iTunes? But that's Apple? And thus evil!

BAN HAMMERING STATUS ENTERED

user30

particularly recommend part IV, Bumpy Ride

user30

10:53 PM

an excellent two minutes of bumpy ridey guitar solos

eyes slowly turn red

user30

you have to listen to it to experience it

That reminds me, yesterday was the first time I've ever seen an amber alert.

user30

user30

@badp for your listening pleasure

user30

10:55 PM

@ArdaXi wat

Amber alert is what the police here use if they want to reach millions of people in 10 minutes.

user30

...

user30

why

In this case a missing child.

user30

eh.

user30

10:57 PM

in the UK most people find out about that sort of thing from the Daily Mail.

@ArdaXi I thought the Dutch kidnapped children all the time though?

@Wipqozn Exactly. They put a picture up there so the child can be properly kidnapped.

@ArdaXi ah, makes sense

user30

oh, did I mention that I was going to see Yes?

Yes?
