Indeed I need to hold Caps lock whenever I don't want to mod abuse. It's good exercise for the pinky.
 
@badp It's a buff not a weapon. It's always on.
@Jin Can we have the cool leaving animation all year round, but with spaceships (+lazers?) instead of sleds?
 
1:23 PM
I think that's balpha's doing, not Jin's.
This is why I love my job at #stackexchange: http://chat.stackexchange.com/search?q=sleigh%20sled&page=1&pagesize=50&sort=newest
 
1:39 PM
Oh FFS, I think I started a most annoying habit. Please kill me.

@Wipqozn Whether they should be closed depends on the Site's decision. And General reference is not an absolute failure: some things are really too basic. Google it first then you come here and ask. — Alenanno 3 hours ago
No, it really, really was.
 
@badp No! I live kitties! DAMN IT PEOPLE! STOP FIGHTING KITTENS!
 
@fredley I was hoping this was relevant to (removed)
 
@OrigamiRobot If it was I would've (removed) it.
 
1:42 PM
@Wipqozn I am considering getting a cat. An Ocicat to be exact.
 
@OrigamiRobot That is one bad ass looking cat.
 
@Wipqozn hyphen needed?
 
@fredley ass-looking?
 
@pixel Lol
 
@fredley loo-king?
 
1:44 PM
This one to be more exact.

@badp (removed)
 
@OrigamiRobot Adopting her from an animal shelter?
 
that is a cat that is sitting
 
@Wipqozn There is apparently an Ocicat rescue in my hometown.
 
1:46 PM
I'm not sure what colouring my cat is
 
12 secs ago, by fredley
Experimentation in progress
 
Maybe Tortoise shell or calico?
 
:O:O:O
 
Apr 17 at 13:11, by OrigamiRobot
@RonanForman Oh are we playing the quote game? I love this game!
Dec 13 at 14:44, by OrigamiRobot
@SaintWacko Where I come from, we call that calico.
 
@Wipqozn I'd guess "gray" (at night).
 
1:48 PM
Hey...I wonder...
 
@fredley This Is The Part Where All The Robots Scream At You.
 
@fredley mod abuse imo
 
@pixel Bug though, I have found bug!
 
1:49 PM
@fredley which bug what where when
 
I can work out the contents of (removed) chat messages
 
Okay, never mind.
 
ooOOOooo
wtb information
 
@fredley You can always do that with your own messages
 
@pixel Post a chat message, and remove it, for science
 
1:50 PM
don't let the moderators censor you!
 
@pixel Those abusey mods
 
Oh, that answers my question anyways. THanks @badp! I was curious if you could relocate the moved messages, but it wouldn't show me android hell. you did it anyways though, so yay science!
 
@Wipqozn I wasn't certain myself!
 
Failure
How come, when I post a transcript link to my own (removed) post, it oneboxes?
 
@fredley did not work would not buy again F----------------
 
@badp Can only mods move to frozen rooms?
 
Android Hell has a distinct lack of screaming robots. Let me fix that. ahem
 
which works for me, other mods and pixel.
@Wipqozn Seemingly.
 
:7302540 Ah
I saw something similar the other day
 
1:51 PM

But when I did it earlier, it oneboxed...
Seee!!!!!
 
when people linked something from meta.anime
 
@OrigamiRobot <3
 
It oneboxed and then updated to a link a few seconds later
 
@pixel I can still see the onebox...
 
1:52 PM
@fredley yeah but you linked it
 
@pixel but...but
 
@OrigamiRobot btw is that position for Prime Minister of Robot still open?
 
Okay, so I can't relocate messages to the room they are already in. Dang. That would have been an amusing oversight.
 
@fredley see, doesn't work when I link it
 
1:53 PM
@pixel Eh
No it doesn't
 
3 mins ago, by pixel
@badp is bad
see
works when I link my own
won't work if you try and link it

@badp is bad
 
that's nested though
you're not linking the original
 
you're linking the linked original
see!
 
1:54 PM
@pixel I'm confused. Tea time it is.
 
it's not tea time yet
 
In the meantime:
 
incidentally
WOW THE ENDING OF THIS WEEKS EPISODE OF DEXTER
@OrigamiRobot @OrigamiRobot @OrigamiRobot
 
Your task for today: Make community ads for other sites you participate in for Arqade
 
creates ad for google
 
1:57 PM
@pixel You work at Google?
 
no
and if I did I wouldn't broadcast such information
 
@pixel I.e., if you are active on Skeptics.SE, make an ad for Skeptics pointing back to Arqade
 
why would I do that
I will create an ad using the heart logo
 
@pixel For science
 
we can use that
@fredley pff science
woo, I have now officially posted more spam to chat than @OrigamiRobot

2:03 PM
Wow, this exists: oeis.org
 
Yes, of course it does. It even finds rather un-integer-y sequences like this one ...
 
Good morning, Bridge
@MartinSojka That's odd
Is there actually a pattern to that, or is it just detecting that it's Pi, and continuing it?
 
Neither; it checks against its DB and shows you all the matches (not just "numbers in Pi").
 
@MartinSojka I see how it works now. I hadn't seen the expansion of the acronym yet. I thought it was an engine that based on a starting sequence, continued it
Didn't realize it was an encyclopedia
Cool stuff
 
Some good sequences here: oeis.org/…
 
2:08 PM
It's even more interesting that the first hit for "3, 9, 31" is "Floor(Pi^n)" (that is, integer part of the Pi^n numbers; the "real" version goes like: 1, 3.14..., 9.87..., 31.00..., ...)
I didn't expect it to find it so fast. :)
 
@badp Yes, we would love to have you.
@pixel Is this a challenge?
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh, dear
 
@OrigamiRobot I would be honored
 
@badp What about Happy Prime Minister?
 
@OrigamiRobot Your notion of happiness is peculiar
 
2:13 PM
@OrigamiRobot come at me
 
Besides,
> In base 2, all numbers are happy. This makes base 2 a happy base. The only known happy bases are 2 and 4. There are no others less than 500,000,000.
Sometimes I don't know if I love maths or mathematicians more. Somebody checked all numbers up to 500,000,000 to see if they are "happy bases."
 
I am so tired, I blame you, @OrigamiRobot
consider yourself blamed
 
@badp Someone spent a few minutes writing a program to check, and a few hours of supercomputer time...
 
@fredley It's the thought that matters!
 
Jin
@badp are you lvl50 in BL2 yet?
 
2:18 PM
besides you need to come up with an inductive test to test in general whether x is an happy base for arbitrary x
@Jin 49 and a tick.
 
Jin
@badp slacker
 
Yes.
 
Jin
@badp YOU DON'T MAKE ME PROUD, SLAB!
 
@Jin You're not my real Brick!

@pixel I'm not even sure how you came to the initial conclusion of your victory.
@badp Is that a no?
 
2:22 PM
@OrigamiRobot It is a yes.
 
@OrigamiRobot based upon chat stats
@OrigamiRobot 20.8k vs 19.9k messages
 
@badp is now Happy Prime Minister of robot! Either rejoice or despair, whichever is more appropriate for you.
 
user15026
Good morning Bridge!
 
@pixel Who says they were all spam?
 
@OrigamiRobot I will rule you all with my iron fist... you! Obey the fist
 
user15026
2:23 PM
gives @badp the customary Welcome to robot cupcakes
 
...
I hate my life
 
@pixel You do, it's awful. Image not found.
 
@badp I don't wanna play anymore
 
Jin
obey the fist?
 
yes it does, it makes perfect sense, are you saying you don't like Invader Zim?
 
Jin
2:27 PM
I haven't watched it.....
 
:O
 
@Jin Mostly with my help lately, too. As much as I can on a laggy transatlantic connection anyway
 
Jin
@BenBrocka "transatlantic?" where are you at now?
 
@Jin From the US to Italy
 
2:29 PM
I think I have a lame solution to my gear problems
 
Jin
@badp go turn 50 then i'll solve all your gear problem
 
@badp Get to level 50 so you can get good gear that lasts for more than 10 minutes?
 
Good morning, Bridge
 
Jin
@fbueckert morning
 
@Jin do you have any shock legendaries or anything else Shock and worth keeping?
 
2:30 PM
@BenBrocka If I access Mal's weapon locker, go to the Hyperion Slaughter dome then save, close and rejoin a game and repeat I'll have eventually good gear that makes me last more than 10 minutes! ...or 10 seconds.
 
My mechro + shock = holy shit
 
Jin
@BenBrocka no. last time I played BL2 was with you...
 
@Jin So I take it I have all your legendaries?
 
Jin
@BenBrocka yes
I had some pink items from the first DLC too. but threw them away. they all sucked.
 
You didn't get/keep a Mechro mod from Terra did you? He's like actually hard now
 
2:31 PM
@fbueckert good mid afternoon
 
Jin
@BenBrocka no
 
Yeah the pink weapons looked worse than good purples. WTF
 
@badp It's @fbueckert! Quick, initiate mod stare!
 
I forgot to look at how good the new Torgue legendaries are, the torgue tokens deal is less BS than the seraph crystals, but still seems to take too long. Replayable missions is a nice touch though, almost like Moxxie's slaughterdome
 
@OrigamiRobot Don't you always say I always stare anyway?
 
2:33 PM
I've never said that. Regardless, this is a mod stare.
 
Is that like a carebear stare?
 
The diamond blue color of my skin here implies "mod" anyway!
 
@badp is made out of diaminds? @badp is Buttstallion. This is now canon
 
I'm not a HORSE.
 
@BenBrocka This game is canon.
 
2:34 PM
So you claim

Q: Skyrim disc damaged, if I buy another will I still be able to play my saved games?

BexThe usual story, Xbox 360, bumped, ring scratch, disc unreadable. My question is, if I buy a replacement skyrim disc, will all my saved games and add-ons be lost, or will they still work, just with the new disc.

Q: Is ENB mainly CPU or GPU dependent?

Bram VanroyBecause I am getting huge frame drops when using ENB 0.113 for Skyrim, I was wondering what ENB demands the most of. CPU or GPU. Can anybody answer that question?

 
@badp Of course you are a horse.
 
Do horses eat pizza?
 
@badp horses eat everything, including people
 
Maybe like...grass and oats pizza. Is that what horses eat?
 
2:36 PM
@Lazers This is a ridiculous question. @LessPop_MoreFizz, what did you do with my quote?
 
this scene freaked me out the first time I saw it
 
@pixel Not a pizza still
 
@OrigamiRobot Y U SO MEAN TO THE LESS TECHNICAL PPLZ?
 
@OrigamiRobot There was a point in time where data was linked to the game medium.
 
So the React Dahlminator guaranteed e-tech is crap. I can probably outrun its bullets
Nevermind level 26
 
Jin
2:40 PM
@badp all e-tech stuff are neat, but so impractical.
 
@badp Well yours is like level 20. But the bullet speed is probably still the same
 
@Jin I've so found 0 oranges or magentas so far except for the guaranteed ones. At least that most likely means all my gunzerker will find will be level 50s!
 
@Jin Moxxie's slow hand from the Torgue DLC is actually freaking awesome. It's a glob gun that shoots straight forward, shock globs for 18k x3. It's like a rocket launcher that doesn't suck
Speaking of rocket launcher that doesn't suck, I got the derp nukem launcher too, 360k damage. It actually hurts bosses!
 
 
...what game are we talking about with bullets so slow people can outrun them?
 
2:42 PM
@GraceNote Borderlands 2.
 
@GraceNote borderlands 1/2
 
Uh huh.
 
there were a few guns in BL1 that had the same issue
 
This super slow effect is called "Dodge this." in red text ingame.
 
@pixel the "mobile" icon indicates they're probably on a crap keyboard...
@badp Technically it's because they're homing
 
2:42 PM
@BenBrocka but the contents of the statement...
 
@GraceNote Well, there's Dishonored too. :)
 
@GraceNote They're more like homing darts in this case
 
@pixel I am meab to anyone who is not a member of robot. Of course, that is not to say I am nice to people who are robotians.
 
 
@pixel Oh look! There are idiots on the internet!
 
2:45 PM
Anatidaephobia: the fear that somewhere, somehow, Dolan is watching you
 
@badp nods
I especially like that all Finnish people are satanic skrillex lovers
 
@badp 500,000,001
 
In other news it turns out the ammo crate I'm grinding only pops out pistols and grenade mods. less than stellar
 
I have written a program to see if a base is happy.
500,000,001 is not happy
 
Stupid work filters.... someone go to meta and fetch me the Dolan MtG card!
 
2:47 PM
 
@Wipqozn 1/1 for 0 with tap ability is waaaay overpowered!
 
I CAN DO IT TOO. TAKE THAT.
 
 
@PatrickStalder Yes
 
I still can't find an upgrade for this one class mod :(
+34% gun damage? yes please.
 
2:51 PM
@PatrickStalder Are you questioning my card design? FINE! NO CARD FOR YOU!
 
@badp Oh. Is it a red chest? Otherwise you're wasting your time. Even red chests rarely have good drops. There's probably a boss you could farm instead. Though I think they made King Mong rarer, he was a good way to get a couple purples in a couple minutes
 
@Wipqozn You can not hurt me with that, since I have no sound at the office.
 
@PatrickStalder You kids.
 
@OrigamiRobot bring me the banhammer!
 
@badp I have some level 40-30 class mods on me still too
 
2:52 PM
@BenBrocka Well I did upgrade my grenade mod and corrosive weaponry I think, so it's not all for loss.,
 
I never got a better Cat (SMG damage +, SMG acc -) mod...not that I ever use anything but my Legendary Siren mod anymore
 
@Wipqozn You santatortoise!!
 
Also I need better shock stuff for my mechro. I've got about +75% shock damage right now, I'm thinking with lvl 50 purple COM/artifact I could get that to 100%
At which point shock would outperform all elements at all times
 
@Wipqozn I'm still duking it out with SF. He's still missing the fundamental point that these questions are unanswerable by us, as users.
 
@badp what's your best ammo regen?
 
2:54 PM
The one I used yesterday
 
@fbueckert There's a point where you just stop arguing. Remember what Mark Trapp used to say, discussion ends when everyone has raised and addressed all arguments/points either for or against, if the other persons argument becomes "your poop" they don't matter.
 
2.5
 
@Wipqozn like, from a butt
 
@Wipqozn We're basically going in circles at this point, I think. He thinks they're as answerable as any other question. I disagree, and his opinion has downvotes. I think I'm calling it at this point.
 
@Wipqozn Did we fail our daily ritual of mentioning MarkTrapp?
 
2:56 PM
@badp Wish it scaled to what weapon type/how much ammo you get. I had infinite shotgun ammo but I'd eventually run out of SMG ammo if I fired at a normal rate
 
@OrigamiRobot Let's mention him even more today to make up for it.
 
@Wipqozn Him who?
 
 
@fbueckert Sounds like the best course of action. Not everyone is going to agree. That would just be crazy.
@OrigamiRobot @MarkTrapp.
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, I typically scrap those mods because I can gunzerker to regen ammo anyway and I also noticed that you will eventually run out of SMG ammo back when I used four of them
 
2:58 PM
@pixel lol, brody mcStevebro
 
@Wipqozn Oh, @MarkTrapp! Of course!
 
We should make an account named MarkTrapp who just remains in chat all the time. That way we can @MarkTrapp again (autocomplete) and it will feel like Mark is still with us.
 
@badp They're nice to have for a Mechro. With Anarchy spec I'm pretty much best if I constantly fire with reckless abandon, but I have no ammo regen on my own. I really expected the spray and pray class to have regen somewhere
 
@Wipqozn That would be a weird version of the christmas "ghosts" thing...
 
That reminds me, I'm hungry as fuck. I'm going to go eat.
 
2:59 PM
Nevermind, a single hyperion assassin dropped me dead super fast
 
I also might watch either A Christmas Carol or Finding Nemo
 
I still don't know what I'm doing so wrong
 
@Wipqozn on it
 
@Wipqozn
 
Rename @Lazers to @MarkTrapp

3:00 PM
@Wipqozn Muppet Treasure Island
 
 
Are we still blaming @Wipqozn for everything? Or did this go out of motion a soon as I left this chat for a couple seconds?
 
@PatrickStalder If we weren't, it'd surely be @Wipqozn's fault.
 
 
Jin
 
3:02 PM
@TimStone Thanks for the clarification on the @Wipqozn case.
 
@PatrickStalder Blaming @Wipqozn is in the FAQ
 
Jin
 
@OrigamiRobot excellent. I'm very glad this happend to the @Wipqozn "meme".
 
@pixel Of course that doesn't work, credit cards are too small for a 3.5" bay.
@Jin Is the kangaroo asian?
 
Jin
@BenBrocka yes. kangaroos originated in China.

@Sterno I could rename myself to Mark Trapp, picture and all, if that would make you feel better
 
@fredley We should all do that.
 
So a "Demong" thing killed me, is it King Mongy whatever?
 
I'm @MarkTrapp
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Fuck year. 2013 is year of the MarkTrapp
 
@badp No, that's just a new bullymong type in playthrough 2. They suck
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz No, I'm @MarkTrapp
 
I am @MarkTrapp.
 
I'm @MarkTrapp, and so's my wife
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, measly XP and too much health.

@fredley I'm too busy being @MarkTrapp to have a wife.

@RonanForman how are we distributing MM?

@pixel This for real?
 
3:32 PM
@fredley I duno, it's on the internet, it could be fake
 
@pixel Eh. It's a bit too easy...
 
@pixel cunning plan etc
 
I think I posted this before.
If this doesn't convince you to play Quantum Conundrum, nothing will.
@TrentHawkins Can you build me a ship to launch a station core into orbit?
 
@GnomeSlice ...You realize if he actually builds you a ship, it's going to be complicated as hell to control, right?
 
@fbueckert I dunno, the one in that image is pretty bad.
Also, why is it so terrible.
 
3:42 PM
Why is Firefox sync so much harder than it should be
 
@GnomeSlice @TrentHawkins delights in making supercomplicated ships that should never survive launch, never mind make it into orbit.
 
@fbueckert Me too! I must be better at it than him because mine don't survive launch or achieve orbit.
 
@GnomeSlice If you were better, you'd get them into space.
 
@fbueckert I got this one into space, I even got the core into orbit.
But some pieces were missing.
The bottom RCS tank keeps falling off.
 
@TrentHawkins just takes my concepts, laughs at their puny restraints, and gets them into space anyways.
 
3:45 PM
@GnomeSlice Did anyone else win as the MM after I left?
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm not sure, I think once or twice.

Q: How to add server to the list in Starcraft brood war (Ubuntu, Wine)

HerokillerI'm running Starcraft via Wine. It runs perfectly, but I don't know how to add an entry to the list of servers. In Windows it's added via reg file.

 
I have to start again, this just won't work.
 
@GnomeSlice The trick is to "push" payloads into space. Pulling doesn't work so hot when gravity is involved.
 
@fbueckert Yeah, I know that. The top rockets are just to make the final burn to a circular orbit.
It still works, but the RCS tank keeps falling off almost immediately.
 
3:58 PM
@GnomeSlice And they're what's causing too much weight.
If anything, those rockets on the top should be attached to the sides of the payload.
 
@fbueckert There's no way to attach anything to the sides of the payload.
 
@GnomeSlice There's always a way to attach things to the side of the payload.
 
@fbueckert Not on this one.
There's literally no free surface area.
 
@GnomeSlice That should tell you something.
 
@fbueckert That my payload is badass.
