The average life expectancy of a North American Red Breasted Robin is only 1.1 years. For some reason, knowing this helps me sleep better.
What a great feed.
I’m leaving my Ferrari unlocked on the street with the keys in it. Some idiot is about to have the best and worst day of his life.
 
@GnomeSlice And all the pictures become the horse.
 
@Ullallulloo LOL
but you don t see any of those jokers with a pyramid, do you? Judge a tree
Oh man. This is right up my alley.
That's like DJO, right there.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Hmmmm... I have eeeevil thoughts... Wonder if there's any way to make this auto-run on every site for someone else's pc............
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Omfg... I suppose it's supposed to be 'drowned me out' or something.
That's hilarious.

I love the emphasis on those. NEVER. DEAD.

How the frig did they get so many followers lol.
 
@GnomeSlice You are kind of late to the horse_ebooks party.
the account has been around forever and it is well known.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz How did they get so many followers though?

@Gnome Do you mind posting the spleef video on our Facebook?
 
@RonanForman Ew.
Don't you have access to it?
 
Aeo
@Tristan Why do I think this is one of those things that in 1000's of years will be in a museum mistakenly labeled as a torture training device?
 
@Gnome I can't post as G.SE from the app
 
@Aeo Because... That's what it should be called.
 
@RonanForman My internet is being raped. I can't post it either.

Q: How do I change the difficulty?

spugsleyI'm currently fighting the Maid of Windmere and she's ridiculously hard because she summons a dozen things to fight alongside her. Since I've tried to kill her about 30 times now, I think I'd like to be done with it and just move on. The best way I can think to do this is to change the difficulty...

Q: What are the disadvantages of auto-reload in TF2?

Kevin ReidIn Team Fortress 2, there is an option to automatically reload your weapon as soon as you stop firing. Furthermore, reloading can be interrupted by firing, and (except for the Force-a-Nature) reloading does not waste ammo. What reasons are there to disable auto-reloading, or to use the manual re...

 
Wait there it goes.
 
If they want to play? They should join us even if they don't!
 
@RonanForman Who is they?
 
@GnomeSlice I realize that you are probably the last person on earth with whom I will be able to constructively have this conversation, but could you please find a better word for 'not functioning properly' or 'being interfered with'?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I don't think that question mark belongs.
Should just be a period.
 
12:27 AM
@Wipqozn It belongs, I just accidentally a word
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I think the comma should be gone now though.
 
@Wipqozn Geez, grammar police

@GnomeSlice Thats a good word.
 
Hm... let me think.
Malfunctioning?
 
@GnomeSlice Also a good word.

@Fredy31 Well hi there, fredy
 
@GnomeSlice All of these are acceptable words that are not synonyms of 'Sexual Assault.' See how easy that was?
 
@LessPopMoreFizz Chaotic?
 
Hello there
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz 'Fucked backwards' is kind of.
Oh, I see what you're getting at now.
No, someone was violently assaulting my internet connection.
 
12:32 AM
I should really get aware that theres a Spleef tournament coming on
 
Riotous.
Yeah, I should join the spleef tournament.
@RonanForman Are we going to do the bracket in-game on signs?
Disjointed.
Spasmodic?
Disorderly.
Confused.
Ah, dinner.
 
@GnomeSlice So say violently assaulting then. Rape means something fairly specific these days, and it isn't something that someone is going to do to your internet connection, and to use it metaphorically is insulting and offensive to a whole lot of people.
 
Oh really @NickT?
 
Oh, Canada.
 
12:42 AM
Turns out I won't, after all, finish Hydrophobia today
 
That the game with the horrible water physics?
 
Rather the horrible fighting sequence
I've been playing the entire game with the infinite ammo sonar pistol thingy
I'm at the big fight by the plaza thing I believe
 
Meh, it's depressing to see my bank account drop below another milestone while I'm a student with no real income
 
@NickT What's sad is that the "horrible water physics" was really the only thing that game had going for it...
 
@Tristan I saw some videos, it probably would have been a lot better if they didn't focus soooooo heavily on it
 
12:45 AM
@NickT The game looked nice. But the actual gameplay was pretty terrible...
 
looks at starred list
Kill @GnomeSlice? What?

@Ullallulloo Is that like Crushing?

Q: Jump from a helicopter to horse drawn carriage full of hay

akaShaffeI used to watch my dad play when I was younger. I remember a lot of the old titles he used to play. Dark Castle, Airborne, etc. What was the name of this one? The game was fairly simple, you would jump out of a helicopter and try to land in a horse drawn carriage full of hay. The horse would run...

@Wipqozn Question!
 
@Tristan Answer: Yes, you should vote for me as the next mod.
 
@Wipqozn wat... Anyway, I'm having an issue with my map in Kingdoms of Amalur. I want to ask a question about it, but I'm worried it'd be considered too localized.
It's pretty much, "Why doesn't my map show the paths/roads?" with a picture of the bugged map. Would that be too localized?
Also, @spugsley when you win, what are you picking? The vita, or the chair? >.>
 
1:13 AM
I has a question! Are we supposed to use the 'quest' tag? I thought we weren't using it anymore but my questions keep getting edited to add that tag in
@Tristan I've got my eye on that vita :)
 
@spugsley Well... Unless someone asks a ridiculously stellar question in the next week and a half, I'm pretty sure you'll get it from your respec question. lol
 
@Tristan Well, @ravendreamer is really close with his max level question
@Tristan I'm only ~150 ahead of him right now
 
@spugsley True...
@Wipqozn Answer my question! >.>
 
@Tristan sorry, I was sending out an E-mail to my group for a project.
reads your question
 
also someone answer my question about the 'quest' tag
 
1:18 AM
people,people, I'm only one (amazing) man!
 
@spugsley I don't believe quests is a good tag. supposedly we're killing meta tags like this one.
 
As for your question @spugsley, I would say no. It's a meta tag, which we dislike.
 
@agent86 okay, someone should mention it to Raven then. He keeps editing it in :)
 
@Wipqozn I didn't see anything on the meta against using it...
 
@spugsley raven? sigh
 
1:19 AM
@Tristan There probably isn't, but it is a meta tag. Meta tags is one thing people want to kill.
 
@agent86 yup. I just wanted to be sure though
 
@Tristan Based on what you've told me, it seems fine.
 
@spugsley, you'll probably beat me in any contest on KoA, I've got pitiful answers and views :)
 
@Wipqozn I did some digging and noticed I wasn't the only person with the issue, so I was hoping it wouldn't be too localized. I just wanted to make sure.
 
@agent86 apparently, I get a lot of views? I didn't know that until @IanPugsley told me that I was like...in the top 5 all time for views on the site.
 
1:21 AM
@spugsley well, we'll have to talk to raven. I sure thought that one was worthy of destruction. I can't imagine anyone being a "quest" expert or following "quests" as a tag.
 
@Tristan Too localized mostly relates to thinks which are time / location specific.
 
@agent86 If it's any consolation, I have a question with ~400 views and only one upvote. <.<
 
I think the example people normally give is "WHy is there a blue car parked outside my house right now?"
 
@spugsley yikes! I think it's 'cause you're a girl. they look at your avatar and just have to click ;)
 
@Wipqozn Alright. I suppose I'll ask said question then. Expect it from Lazers in... ~1 hour. I'm asking it now, though.
 
1:22 AM
@agent86 that's my guess as well lol
 
@Tristan haha
lazers is so old.
Actually depending on when you post it, we might see it in 8 minutes.
I think @Lazers grabs the feeds every 30 minutes.
@badp would know for sure though.
So what you're saying @agent86, is that I should change my avatar to a picture of a girl?
wait, it already is!
Applejack is a female!
 
@Wipqozn might as well. Though most people thought my avatar was like a random stock image from somewhere on the internet. I got called 'he' the first few times I came to chat lol
 
@spugsley I've been watching it. You're slowly pulling away.
 
@Wipqozn yes.
 
@RavenDreamer You hear that @spugsley? Raven's been watching you.
 
1:25 AM
I'm close on the "Highest answer", though.
 
@Wipqozn and I've been watching himmmm
 
Hopefully I can add "A chair" to the list of ways my life has improved since joining Stack Exchange.
 
@RavenDreamer can you win twice?
 
@spugsley Watches you watch him watch you.
 
@badp Use Gel rounds.
 
1:25 AM
@spugsley I hope not.
 
@RavenDreamer I also hope not because I'd be second in line. As of right now anyway :)
@RavenDreamer if you get more views, that is
 
@spugsley I don't expect to.
 
Alright, question asked. We'll be seeing @Lazers in approx. 45 minutes.
 
I just wish it was easier to sort tag-based answers.
At this point, I'd have to dig into the stack infodump SQL thingy.
 
1:26 AM
I had a hard time with hydrophobia, because even at the lowest graphics settings and like an 800x600 resolution, I got like 12 fps.
 
@Tristan I asked one about 1/2 hour ago and lazers still hasn't grabbed it yet lol
 
And the final boss sequence was... not very good.
 
@Wipqozn Doing Applejack in minecraft is going to be ridiculously difficult. I don't have a 2nd shade of orange for the outline. =(
 
@Tristan I'm sure you're up to the task.
 
@spugsley I saw it. He'll probably post ours together. In another hour.
 
1:27 AM
we've got quite a lot of KoA stuff on the site these days. seems like that promotion's doing work.
 
Just remember, if you fail, we will have lost all hope in you.
 
@Wipqozn I could do it in red. But it'd look odd.
 
Forever.
 
@Tristan wow...you're latest question is quite interesting....
@Tristan that's definitely a problem to have

Q: Why doesn't my local map show roads?

TristanI seem to be having an issue with my local map in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. As you can see, it shows the proper icons, but it doesn't show the actual roads. This makes planning my route to my next quest objective (or even finding my way) extremely difficult. How can I fix this map?

I think we should close this as too localized ^
 
1:28 AM
@Wipqozn Goodbye mod vote.
 
@Wipqozn that's not fair though. I had a Skyrim question that was practically the same thing. Except people's faces weren't showing up...only their facial hair :/
 
@Wipqozn Get rid of the :numbers, post picture, edit in the :numbers.
 
I'll do it this way!
 
1:30 AM
@spugsley Good point.
Which question was t-
Let's close that one too
(btw @spugsley, in case you are unaware, I am just trolling him based on our earlier convo :P)
 
@RavenDreamer You got a 500 rep bounty awarded to your own answer on your own question? O.o wat
 
@RavenDreamer cousin it? is that you?
 
There's no way this chick is a real cosplayer.
 
@Tristan Blame Mana.
I think like 60% of the bounty's I've earned have been because of him.
 
@RavenDreamer That's the smartest thing you have ever said.

Q: What should I do with The Treasures of Meropis?

spugsleyWhile exploring the Fae Library I triggered a quest called The Treasures of Meropis. I basically had to recover lost items from various underwater places. I found all five treasures which included: Bag of Sand Coral Silver Shell Meropic Relic Pearl After I found the last one, the game told...

@Lazers See? I told you @Tristan.
 
@GnomeSlice I can't tell if that's sexist, self denigrating, or both!
 
@Lazers checks feeds every 30 minutes.
 
> regardless of gender, it’s the best Skyrim shoot and costume I’ve seen so far. Even if she does have a light armor skill of zero.
All female cosplayers are starting to look the same.
 
@GnomeSlice Isn't that the point?
 
1:33 AM
@GnomeSlice depends on the genre.
 
@StrixVaria Not really.
 
...@GnomeSlice, you do know that cos-players aren't all fat, 30 year-old men iving in thier mothers basement, right?
 
@Wipqozn right, considering I'm a cosplayer and I'm the exact opposite of that :)
 
It seems they're all trying to give their costumes the sexyfactor. Much of them look the same.
@Wipqozn Yes, I know, it was a joke. Have you never heard of Jessica Nigri before?
 
1:35 AM
@GnomeSlice No.
@GnomeSlice waits for someone to flag that
 
@GnomeSlice ughhhh
@GnomeSlice I hate hate hate that
 
She was big on pokemon a while ago, apparently.
 
there's one flag.
 
OHMYGOD CLEAVAGE CAN'T HAVE THAT FLAG IT
 
@GnomeSlice You've been warned about this before.
 
1:36 AM
Pushup-bra Pikachu, I choose you!
 
can we stop with the half naked women?

No?
 
alright. I'm out
 
@spugsley Don't worry, I'm validating the many flags these are getting.
@GnomeSlice No.
you've been warned about this before @gnomeslice.
People don't want you posting images like this in chat.
 
@Wipqozn Read my last post.
 
1:38 AM
I have no problem with these pictures
 
@MarcoCeppi Many other people do.
The first one got 3 flags.
 
Many, many people use this chat at work.
Where, yes, even cleavage like that is NSFW.

@MarcoCeppi Did that one get a flag? =(
 
Really? I've never seen so many consecutive flags in one day.
 
1:41 AM
@RavenDreamer I only came because I approved of the flagged content :)
@Tristan It should have :)
 
Sailor Moon would flag it.
 
@simchona It has happened before in the comms room... Someone decided to go through our history and find and flag lots of things.
 
@simchona you must not come here very often.
 
@Wipqozn Nope. Just sitting in EL&U chat, watching the blue popups
 
Oh! @MarcoCeppi have you seen the spleef arenas we built for Game On? I'm pretty sure you're going to be the one hosting the server for it, right?
 
1:45 AM
@Tristan I wouldn't be surprised, I usually do
I have not seen it yet
 
@MarcoCeppi Well, if you're interested, let me or @OrigamiRobot know.
 
I'll need it before Sunday to load it on to the server
 
@MarcoCeppi Alright. I think Origami's going to toy around with it some in MC Edit, but I'll make sure he knows.
 
No problemo

@GnomeSlice - I just had a brilliant idea. You should edit your gravatar. It should have a frowny face.

Hey, now. Let's not discuss NSFW links, please.
 
I'm not even sure I still have the vector files...
Hrm...
Oh, yes, I do.

Isn't it broken down into single-color squares anyway?
 
@RavenDreamer Not quite.
There's a grid between them.
Which was far far more difficult to do in Illustrator than you'd think.
I don't think I'd be able to figure it out again.
I should get some more practice working with Illustrator, it's going to be an important tool eventually.
Ouu I've got a new question for the site.
That I don't feel like writing right now.

Q: What are the differences between the 4 difficulty levels?

Juan ManuelWhen you start a new game, you can select these four difficulty levels: Thug Mobster Hitman (default) Don What varies in the game between them? Are enemies tougher in the Don setting? Do I make less damage? Do I have other limitations?

Q: What is the darkling personality?

Juan ManuelWhen you start a new game, you can select the darkling personality. What is it? You can choose between hooligan: and abdul:  What is the difference? How does it affect gameplay?

 
Incidentally, @GnomeSlice, how much of Musagi do you know?
 
2:30 AM
More drama with @GnomeSlice? He's playing some... interesting Steam games. I've never heard of "QUIT SUSPENDING ME" or "YEAH I'M SERIOUS".
 
@John "QUIT SUSPENDING ME" is a great, unappreciated classic I hear.
gah, this question's back:
 
Already taken care of, my friend.
 
@RavenDreamer swell
 
2:48 AM
@RavenDreamer Spam pointing to Scribd is... strange.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz It's classy spam.
 
The linked poem is... bad.
@RavenDreamer What's the benefit to the spammer?
It's the equivalent of a spammer linking to a random youtube video.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz You say that like it doesn't happen...
 
@RavenDreamer Except Scribd has no equivalent of the youtube partner program for a spammer to make money off of.
so, maybe a better example, it's the equivalent of a spammer linking to a flickr photo.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz you wouldn't happen to know the ID of the spam collective, would you?
 
2:51 AM
@LessPopMoreFizz: Have you seen this?
 
@Brant You should scroll up a bit.
 
Bah, I can't be expected to read backlog.
Disappointed that ohmygodworms.stackexchange.com doesn't exist, though.
 
@Brant You and me both.
