@Fluttershy Evening!
 
nite
 
That's not suggestive at all.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn Not a bit, I don't know what you're thinking. ;)

12:07 AM
There are a surprisingly large number of ‘I Dream of Jeannie’ questions on the SciFi @StackExchange. Odd.
 
@MarkTrapp I hope people don't go to SciFi thinking it's an indication of the average quality of the SE network.
Also, it just occurred to me I never realized that I Dream of Jeannie was considered Fantasy.
@Fluttershy: Are you enjoying Chiv?
 
user15026
@Wipqozn Yeah, this surprises me a little.
 
user2334
SciFi.SE's definition of fantasy is extremely suspect. There was no I Dream of Jeannie activity at all on the site until yesterday
 
user2334
And one person asked 4 of them in a short amount of time
 
@Wipqozn It's a lot of fun. Still has some bugs in it, one of which is pretty bad. It's easy to learn, but incredibly difficult to master.
 
12:11 AM
@MarkTrapp I don't imagine it's an easy thing to pin down.
Since it seems like no matter where you draw the line it could be considered arbitrary.
 
user2334
I'm a proponent of common sense and Miller-esque tests; guess who spent months making snide remarks about it
 
@MarkTrapp I'm not sure, but I know it wasn't Gilles.
 
user15026
@fbueckert Augh, the yelling is so...yelly
 
@AshleyNunn It also doesn't answer the question at all.
And that was after the brain managed to parse it.
 
user15026
12:16 AM
@fbueckert My brain just sort of fizzled
 
user2334
@fbueckert I don't know how creating a Facebook account solves MW3 freezing issues
 
@MarkTrapp But it's very important!
 
@MarkTrapp It gives you another plus to cry about it.
 
user15026
@MarkTrapp magic and kittens.
 
His "answer" is just: You're not actually having a problem. It's running fantastic. Sign up to FAcebook.
 
12:28 AM
Awww, I thought CPGrey was signed up to scifi, oh well. Although he could be using his real name/different nickname.
But not being of scifi might be a good thing.
 
@RonanForman He is.
 
user2334
@RonanForman He is
 
Ah, I didn't check for spaces.
 
user2334
I suspect he he was there doing preliminary research for a Hobbit-themed video
 
user2334
given it takes him a month to do a video and the Hobbit Part 1 is out in December
 
12:33 AM
Well that's kinda cool all the same.
First Extra credits, now CPGrey, were getting all the videos made.

Q: How to I change the bitrate on US Nextflix directly on the PS3?

JohnnyI am having trouble reducing the quality of the US netflix on my PS3. How can I change it without logging online? Is there a way I can do this directly on the PS3? Thanks

 
user15026
@RonanForman I like how Skeptics comes up briefly in one video (looking for the woman who apparently started the you eat 8 spiders fact)
 
user15026
Also, having never heard of this guy before, I am watching ALL HIS STUFF

@LessPop_MoreFizz I assume you managed to charge your phone with this
 
@SaintWacko Probably on the way home.
Seriously you guys, get it.
 
@GnomeSlice I'll wait for the Steam release.

@Wipqozn It's free man.

Glad to hear you're not irreparably drenched.
 
I need to take some screenshots about how to get a particular something in that game. In case someone asks it on the site.

Q: How do I capture a resource node?

SternoI started playing Natural Selection 2 tonight, first as a marine and then as an alien, and I had no idea how to actually capture resource nodes for my team. How do I do this?

 
@GnomeSlice Is this something you had trouble finding?
 
@Wipqozn It's not obvious how to get a certain pickup at first. In fact, you probably won't even see it until the end of the game, your first time around.
It's just to the left of where you start, and it's very tricky to get.
 
1:25 AM
@GnomeSlice My finished Dwarf (on the right)
Textures not done, obviously.
 
@GnomeSlice why not ask and then self answer?
if you think it will be useful to other people
 
@murgatroid99 That's what I was getting at.
 
@murgatroid99 I dunno, because then I'd have to spend a lot of effort recording a video or taking screen captures.
@RavenDreamer Neat! I like the facial hair. =]
 
@GnomeSlice you just said you were taking screenshots anyway. And you don't have to, it's just a suggestion because it will get you more rep
 
@murgatroid99 I was going to do a video answer.
It's a very long process.
 
1:26 AM
Yeah. Serendeptitiously enough, I like what the exporter did in the quads-> Triangles conversion.
The beard on the right is kinda awkwardly shaped at the bottom, but the middle (which I hope to actually use) has it right.
 
You have to basically make it through about a third of the game without dying, and without activating any checkpoints, and then die once you get the weapon that allows you to break blocks.
 
@GnomeSlice So... wait to make and self answer until you finish...?
You were going to do this anyways.
 
@Wipqozn Like, last year.
 
I don't see how asking and self answering changes that.
 
Eh
I can't really be bothered I guess.
It's a lot of work...
 
1:28 AM
You're a confusing person @GnomeSlice.
 
Plus it's more than likely I'd have to take a few tries, I did it on my first attempt without dying, but I haven't played it in a while.
 
@Sterno: How do you find Natural Selection thus far?
 
The way you have to do it, if you die you start back at the beginning of the game.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz That may be the best tweet of all time. I am in awe.
 
Ballsack, the game isn't even installed on my PC.
Aaaaand 93 Mb to go
Guess I'm not doing it tonight, then.
Gah, I need a special part to get to the new ice world... a part that didn't exist before... I wonder where it is.
AH CRAZY THE HAMMER ARM GOT THE UPPERCUT ABILITY

Oh my goodness...
I just received some really potentially fantastic and also very scary news
 
@Fluttershy lucky. Did they ever make those easier? I stopped playing a couple months ago, never uninstalled it though
 
@EBongo I changed my entire answer to your question because I found the actual privacy policy. It's consistent with my last answer, but I thought you would want to know
 
@BenBrocka They did not. I didn't get the October one til like three days ago.

@GnomeSlice oh?
 
2:16 AM
Someone I know (and her sister) are moving out, and want a third person to join them to split the rent... I'd have to look for a job in that area of town to pay for my rent but... if I could... I might be moving out soon.
 
Possible congrats, then!
 
It's so scary...
I don't even know how to go about applying for work.
 
@GnomeSlice Making a resume is usually a good start.
 
I have one.
Oh jeez, they'd need me by december...
That gives me... like... less than a month
I'm hyperventilating, this would be such an amazing thing
 
Well, I'm going to leave before you have a panic attack.

Q: What are the key binds when you're commander?

BlueRaja - Danny PflughoeftSimilar to this question for Nuclear Dawn. How do I know what I should spend my resources on at any given time? In fact, I'm not even sure what all my options are sometimes. Tips for both alien and marines would be nice, if the play-styles are even different.

Q: How do you play as commander as an alien (Kharaa)?

BlueRaja - Danny PflughoeftThis, erm, may be a stupid question, but how do you play as the commander on the alien team? They don't have a structure to enter like the marines - I assumed it would just involve pressing 'e' on the hive, but I couldn't get that to work last night.

On 23 August 2006, it was made available for purchase on Valve's Steam service and on 24 March 2011 it was made available for purchase from the Ubuntu Software Center. It is best described as a simulator of the cinematic depiction of computer hacking.

Q: How to install Windows games on Ubuntu?

sajjadWould you please tell me how to install Windows games on Ubuntu? I really need it.

 
there isn't, but due to the way bradford scoring works I have a limited number of sick days before I trigger any alarms for absence
I'd rather be at work sick than at home worrying about the security of my job
won't get any work done though
I'm just going to sleep at my desk
 
8:55 AM
The Bradford Factor or Bradford Formula is used in human resource management as a means of measuring worker absenteeism. The theory is that short, frequent, and unplanned absences are more disruptive than longer absences. According to the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development the term was first coined due to its supposed connection with research undertaken by the Bradford University School of Management in the 1980s. It was developed as a way of highlighting the disproportionate level of disruption on an organisation's performance that can be caused by short-term absence compared...

9:42 AM
@MartinSojka I loathe systems like this; it all too often encourages people to not take a sick day and come into work sick. They then infect their coworkers who also don't want to raise any absenteeism alarms- Soon everyone is passing back and forth the same damn cold for the better part of two months. An endless spiral of misery.
