8:00 PM
It's snowing
 
This is why I love having two monitors.
 
your task bar is along the top of the screen
you are officially weird
 
@kalina I'm not disagreeing with that. But TBQH, the guy doesn't even know what he's asking. He saw that Curse supported Minecraft (I'm under the impression that their support now is to basically start the Minecraft launcher), and assumed it could do all the things it did for Warcraft
 
@kalina ehhhh.... but the top is the best, don't you know???
 
@MBraedley as such, correct him on his assumption and then offer him other sources that might help him
that question isn't a duplicate of "how do I install mods for Minecraft", and we do not have a question about using Curse to install mods for Minecraft
 
8:02 PM
Uh, Steam will be adding user reviews to their store..

Q: Does the wind direction have any effect while sailing?

Jeff MercadoIn the previous game, the wind direction played a huge role in how fast you sailed (as expected). If you sailed against the wind, you'd sail slower than if you had sailed with the wind. In this game however, it doesn't seem to be the case. You can sail at what seems to be the same speed if you...

Q: Can I run StarCraft: Broodwar on Ubuntu?

WillIm currently running Mavericks on my MacBookPro (Late 2008) and want to get a different OS that will run Starcraft 1: Broodwar, WITHOUT using wine.

 
What is Curse?
 
@OrigamiRobot It's a gaming site/program/social platform/whatever you want to call it
 
8:03 PM
@OrigamiRobot A piece of adware, as far as I'm concerned
 
like gamespy
 
@GamingTopicsFromOutside wikipedia says no...
 
> Is Curse as easy to use for Minecraft as it was for Warcraft?
That's the question
 
@kalina but not the problem
 
Not yours, that's you trying to force a square into a circle shaped hole
We don't deal in problems, we deal in questions and answers
 
8:04 PM
Neither of these answers are helpful :/
 
questions may contain problems but we answer the question, not the problem
 
@kalina No, generally we solve the problem.
 
@OrigamiRobot a horrible nasty piece of software that formally installs and manages mods for WoW, then it turned out it was pretty good at that so they did a half job of implementing "support" for other games
 
@MBraedley We aim to do both. And in this case we can do both.
 
@MBraedley I'm guessing I generated 20k+ rep by doing the wrong thing then
 
8:06 PM
@kalina No, you were probably solving the problem and didn't even realize it.
 
@MBraedley all I've ever done was answer questions
 
And if we were to only solve problems, half of our answers should just be a PEBKAC image.
 
what with this being a question and answer site
 
I agree that we solve the problem, but I don't think these are dupes
If you want to approach the proposed dupe as "what are all the ways I can install mods?" Then it's a dupe, but that's also way to broad.
Ugh, mobile is awful for drama participation
 
@OrigamiRobot I'd love to answer with hundreds of ways that only differ in the order of steps. "100 ways to extract a zip and move it into the right place. Sometimes we have to take a detour!"
 
8:12 PM
I'm fine with the drama being over. I've argued my points and attempted rebutting others.
 
I am now going back to sleep, I spent all day shopping and I am so tired
 
@kalina I actually upvoted that too.
 
GOOD
 
@kalina o/
 
Wait @kal

You know those police that kept arresting a guy for trespassing at his workplace? Well I guess they got accused of racial profiling.
Go figure.

@kalina I think that comments can be cleared?
 
@3ventic Link to the actual post so that others can easily flag as offensive

[title](url)
lol
 
and I forgot how to link there for a moment
"I've got link, I've got text, why isn't this working?"
 
@MBraedley because saturday...
 
@Braiam But I haven't had anything to drink (alcohol wise) since last night...
 
@3ventic btw, man, don't link to the LQP but the actual link of the answers...
@MBraedley then for you saturday = alcohol? you darn alcoholic ¬_¬
 
@Braiam alcohol == (not working the next day && not driving soon && time > 20h00 +/- 3h)
And some other exceptions
 
8:31 PM
time > 20h00 +/- 3h
Psh. Casual.
 
@MBraedley what language is that... I will get error however I see it...
 
@Braiam pseudoholic.
 
btw, why should compare alcohol?

Q: Is there a list of which Steam games support Oculus Rift?

BlueRaja - Danny PflughoeftSteam has apparently started displaying when a game supports Oculus Rift; see for example this game. Is there somewhere I can view all Steam games that have Oculus Rift support? I noticed the "Advanced Search" has VR Support as an option, but it only returns 5 games...

 
@Braiam alcohol ≔ {t∈Time : "not working the next day" ∧ "not driving soon" ∧ t > 17h}

@FEichinger mathematica?
are no one sane in The Bridge???

A: What is Redstone used for in Minecraft?

young mangyou can make an automatic giant penis if you hook up the redstone circuits together the penis will activate and it shall retrieve more redstone for you but you have to make the penis spit by lowering your pants in real life and making your own penis spit, you will have to lay in bed and masturbat...

 
Dr. Who. Could have been better.

@fbueckert bye
 
... O_O
@kalina is there another "ryse"?
 
@Braiam no but general media is referring to it as Ryse: Son of Rome
we generally follow everybody else's naming conventions
 
9:24 PM
@kalina synonym of
There done.
 
@RedRiderX I would go the other way.
 
@kalina isn't Arqade a little bit different from other sites
 
@Braiam what is "Arcade"?
yes, but if the entire world is calling a game by one name, we will too
 
@MBraedley synonym of
 
@kalina fingerslip ;)
 
9:26 PM
There done.
 
@kalina You mean that place in a mall where you have to pay a bunch of quarters to play video games?
 
it means people asking questions can just call it what everybody else is calling it
@MBraedley what is a quarter
 
dunno why but "fingerslip" sounds naughty... and sexy D:
 
I fingerslip all the time
 
@kalina Oh com'on, you've got quarter pound coins in England, right?
 
9:27 PM
my biggest problem at the moment is my ; key is still malfunctioning after my coffeeslip
@MBraedley no
we have quarter pound burgers though
is it the same?
 
time to buy a new one :P
obviously... no
 
@kalina Generally you don't want to be eating coins, so no
 
@Braiam I have spent enough money for this... month
and next
today I have spent over £2700 in total
 
Oh, you have a 20p coin, not 25p, right?
 
that might actually be over £2800
yes
 
9:31 PM
1, 2, 5, 10, 50, £1 and £2 coins
There's apparently £5 coins too but I've never seen them
 
2p? That's almost as useless as a 1p coin.
Also, death to pennies everywhere!
 
only thing a 2p is useful for is the arcade machines at the seaside
 
(even if they're called by a different name)
Also, Britain does have a quarter, although it hasn't been issued since the early 80s
 
which means we don't have a quarter
...
 
@kalina it's still legal tender
 
9:40 PM
so is your face
 
@kalina Dang that would be awesome.
 
@MBraedley it says they're legal tender, but then it also says t hey only have to be accepted by post offices
nowhere else has to accept them
and as such that disagrees with the meaning of "legal tender"
 
Technically, that's the same for all money. Any retailer can refuse to accept currency which they do not believe to be legal.
Or for which they themselves believe can't be used as legal tender. It's how stores protect themselves (and are allowed to protect themselves) from counterfeit currency.
Gah, the bane of my existance. I WANT FOOD! And I don't want to call to get it.

Q: What exactly does "use multicore rendering" do in Garry's Mod?

user1870398I looked it up, and I get that it may cause problems, or may increase your FPS, which I get, but what I don't get is exactly what it does. But the thing that really confuses me is what kind of option is that, since DirectX doesn't have such as thing, nor have I ever seen games do that since multi...

Anyone here done any web development?
 
@RavenDreamer o/
 
@FEichinger This is going to come across as a very stupid question.
@FEichinger How do I tell my HTML where to look for CSS?
 
@RavenDreamer You mean, how to load in a stylesheet?
If so, not too stupid. I have to look it up almost every time myself, when I work from scratch.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" src="(path to file on server)"></link>
 
@RavenDreamer <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/path/to/file.css" />, yeh.
 
or is it hreft rather than src?
Yeh, what FEichinger said, sorry.
 
@TZHX That's what happens when W3 pushes for semantic HTML, but not semantic attribute names.
 
Do I have to do an absolute path?
 
No, it can be relative.
 
10:07 PM
@RavenDreamer Nope, relative to document works fine.
 
Do I put it in the head, body, or outside both?
 
@RavenDreamer head.
 
typically in the head.

Q: Slow / Low fps at pipboy inventory, crafting menus, NPC talk, shopping menu etc, how to fix?

Aquarius PowerFor no apparent reason, my inventory or dialog options etc; all the 2D menus (FalloutNV is 3D but menus are 2D), become utterly slow, while outside of these menus the game (3D) runs smoothly good; Also, when dialog with NPC is beggining, the 2D menu is slow and the 3D of the NPC becomes slow too!...

 
I've had people put it at the end of the document for some reason before now, but I can't remember the justification they gave?
 
10:09 PM
Damn. Still not working.
 
@TZHX Load order, I believe.
But because it's metadata element by specification, you shouldn't put it outside of <head>.
@RavenDreamer I think we may need the rest of the code, then.
 
/me tries to stay away from the people who do CSS. They talk about colours and things as if it matters, and then management congratulate them on a brilliant feature when their input was making it blue. </grumble>

}

img.top_right
{
position:absolute;

The image is being displayed properly, it's just not obeying the position attributes
 
@RavenDreamer jsfiddle
You can also try pasting in a test case and sharing the link.
 
@RavenDreamer First things first, drop the caps in the HTML tags. Bad. Evil. Stop it.
 
10:13 PM
@FEichinger It was auto-generated! I swear!
 
Is that comma intentional?
 
@RavenDreamer Drop them anyways!
 
Auto-gen it with this next time then: htmlshell.com
 
And, yeh, that comma needs to go.
 
And I don't think link should self-close? I know script doesn't like it.
 
10:14 PM
@TZHX <link> is a void element by specification.
<script> is not.
 
ah
if you look at it in firebug, is it actually loading the css?
 
Oh, wait, I found the error.
/Styles/Site.css is an absolute path.
 
Yeah, i just got it working in JS Fiddle
@FEichinger So what should that be instead?
 
@RavenDreamer Just Styles/Site.css
 
Splendid.
Working in VS now, too.
Thanks, bridge.
All of my love!

starting with / makes it look to the top of the domain.

@RedRiderX Yeah, I know. It's a feature long overdue.
@RedRiderX That's the thing - this one has been "contributing" all day but getting flagged and deleted immediately.

Q: What's so good about the Bazaar Bargain?

zeldarulezWhen I see it on TF2 wiki, I could only find info about its disadvantages from missing people. What makes the Bazaar Bargain so good that I would rather pick that than the stock sniper?

 
And that guy (now destroyed) only had a single post.
 
@RavenDreamer Oh. Must've mixed it up with someone else, then.
 
10:28 PM
@kalina Bastion. Howsbys?
 
@RavenDreamer it was fun but I got bored of it
 
@kalina :|
 
I thought the narrator was a unique touch
 
But the ending. So stronk.
 
fine I will complete it at some point
 
10:29 PM
How far'd you get?
@kalina Yay!
 
I duno like half way
 
@kalina You really, really should.
 
@kalina First six shards is halfway.
They're not called shards, but you know. Macguffin-y things.
 
(What you think is half-way, is only a quarter.)
 
@FEichinger Mmmm. Are you referring to the choice at the end?
 
10:34 PM
it best not be an ending-o-matic
 
@kalina Nope.
 
@RavenDreamer Well, no, not that.
 
because if I get to the end and there is an ending-o-matic after you've just told me I have to complete it the world will end
 
@kalina Technically it is an ending-o-matic. But it fits in there.
 
@kalina Nope. No ending-omatic.
 
10:35 PM
...
 
@FEichinger "Fits in there" makes it not an ending-o-matic.
 
@RavenDreamer Well, that's why I said technically.
 
SO THERE IS AN ENDING-O-MATIC?
 
@FEichinger Yes, but you don't use "Technically" around Kalina, or else; too late.
@kalina The game has one ending.
Exactly one. No more, no less.
 
but that mean my choices don't matter
 
10:36 PM
What choices? lmao
 
At least the ending-o-matic in Mass Effect 3 let me choose my colour scheme
 
Just play it, for heaven's sake.
 
At least the ending-o-matic in Deus Ex Human Revolution let me choose my voice over
 
Bastion doesn't have choices. You just go through killing dudes.
 
AT LEAST THE ENDING-O-MATIC IN DIABLO 3 LET ME CHO--- oh wait
 
10:37 PM
@kalina Apparently, that game actually had 12.
 
@RavenDreamer HEH
yes it did
there were 4 endings
and you either killed everybody
pacifist it
or mixed
= 12
I WISH I WAS JOKING
 
Yeah, but MINOR VOICEOVER DIFFERENCES. That makes all the difference, right?
 
yeah
like showing Liara in the ending scene or NOT
 
Oh, dear. Google is celebrating 50 years of Dr. Who.

@RavenDreamer I find that they decided to put up a Google for Doctor Who instead of in memory of the JFK Assassination.
 
@Wipqozn Not really instead of since that was yesterday.
 
The Doctor Who doodle was up yesterday too wasn’t it?
 
Also, three important people died that day.
It is weird though.
 
11:13 PM
@Brant Yes, it was.
@Ullallulloo It was the 50th anniversary of his death.
 
@Wipqozn Also C.S. Lewis and Aldous Huxley.
 
11:29 PM
@Ullallulloo three important people died that day every year, it's not every year Doctor Who is 50
and, Doctor Who was aired the day after JFK's death, they shouldn't be overlapping dates
