easier than troubleshooting this one

Did you threaten to set it on fire? Step 1 with diagnosing appliance failures is to let them know who's boss.

The manual should have instructions for checking and unclogging the drain, as well as instructions for checking the drain pump.

hah manual

I don't read manuals

@ShotgunNinja Manual? Oh. You mean the "Tutorial" menu option.

So you're gonna pay $600 for a new dishwasher instead of downloading a PDF manual and spending $30 tops on parts?

@Coronus No, we're talking about a dishwasher, not a game, funny man.

7:35 PM

yes, that is exactly what I am going to do

You're silly.

@ShotgunNinja This is what I would do.

after complaining to the people I'm renting off

There's a low tech option to consider.

Buy a sponge and some dish soap.

7:35 PM

because there are no chances of broken nails or germy water or tears if I just buy a new one

@Sterno wow, this isn't the stoneage

@kalina Oh no, germy water.

user20683

Think of all the flammables you could buy with the money you save.

@ShotgunNinja Not my fault the real world doesn't follow what works in games.

I don't think I've ever done dishes by hand in my entire life

with the exception of a cup or two

Low tech option #2: Only use disposable dishes and plasticware

7:36 PM

DISPOSABLE DISHES!

that is something that I would do

You can buy a lot of paper plates and plasticware for $600

and the landfills get lonely

Low tech option #3: Get a new roommate, where the most important question is: "Do you enjoy doing dishes?"

I can't do the room mate thing

it results in screaming and violence

I'd cut a good $20 off the rent for a roommate who did dishes.

What if your roommate promised to pretend to be a walrus for 2 hours every day?

7:39 PM

@kalina That may end up in broken dishes, and then you're back to disposable... Scratch option #3.

user20683

@Coronus They make unbreakable dishes.

I am actually just going to throw away all of my dirty dishes and buy paper plates

that solves the problem

To be fair, real dishes are ALSO disposable dishes. Just an expensive variety of them.

maybe I could just eat out every day

that would solve the problem

Spending money on a new machine may end up being less in the long run... Depending on where you eat out.

I've been playing Assassin's Creed III (version 1.05) for the last two days and I'm getting random crashes. The crashes occur when I'm in game for around 10 to 20 minutes at random locations in the game. When the game crashes, I can hear the sounds for about 2-3 seconds, before they stop working ...

@RedRiderX Well that's the beauty of the RTL override.

Q: How do I give my soldiers armour in Mount and Blade Warband?

@RedRiderX I quite prefer the "!!", it's both more intuitively understandable and easier to enter

like "I AM BEST SNIPER IN HISTORY OF WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I'm fairly new to Mound and Blade Warband, but I have watched youtubers play and they always have an option to give their soldiers (Just normal ones) the rest of the loot and equip them after the end of a battle When i win a battle i can only equip weapons for myself and the rest is sold i can on...

Q: Gargantuan Bruiser Respawning

While I'm in Bastion's Keep (selling items to Botulph the Miner), my Gargantaun Bruiser will occasionally respawn himself. He collapses into the ground and then reappears. The skill is then on cooldown as normal, even though I haven't manually cast it. What is the cause of this?

Q: What determines if your arrows break?

Being long range and silent the bow is one of the most useful stealth options in the game with the added benefit of sometimes getting your ammo back. My roommate claims that arrows will always break unless you get a head shot, in which case they will always be recoverable. In my experience howeve...

user15026

Can someone give me a like 30 second explanation of how LOL works for like paying for it or whatever?

@AshleyNunn Free to play, have to buy more champions

There's a free selection each week

@FAE are the various character things ingame currency only? Like the page with the twenty slots and whatnot

Wipqozn

8:57 PM

@AshleyNunn Have fun being sworn at by teenagers.

Mad Scientist

@AshleyNunn Nevery played it, but I think you're supposed to insult your teammates until they quit in disgust of the hostile community. And that somehow pays for the game, or something like that ;-)

@badp Not quite sure what you mean.

user15026

Okay, so no like monthly cost or anything?

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Yelling, screaming, not realizing what's going on.

@AshleyNunn Nope, no monthly cost.

@AshleyNunn No.

user15026

8:57 PM

Also I am not asking for me, that game is way above what I can handle

@AshleyNunn It's really twitchy though (like all MOBAs)

oh okay

Powerlord

Well, the Steam Trading card beta ends on Wednesday and Valve is also implying that it ending will also signify the start of the Summer Sale.

oh?

I wonder what that means for the prices of the cards once the things goes live for all to get

Powerlord

Added a link to my last message

@AshleyNunn You can buy more champs with both ingame and real currency, however to buy Runes, which are used for powering up your character, are ingame only.

Powerlord

9:01 PM

Anyway, off again... going out to dinner with my aunt and uncle from California.

@AshleyNunn Free to play. Everything that affects gameplay can be purchased through in-game (earned for free) currency. Cosmetic skins can only be purchased with real money. Characters can also optionally be purchased with real money.

@FAE There was a page on your profile with a bunch of passives like "+1% health regen"

@badp Masteries, those aren't acquired through currency.

You get more Mastery points each time you level up.

then you can assign Masteries to entries similar to a tech tree.

blech

9:10 PM

Then there's Runes, which you're given slots for four types, that you fill to give certain buffs or bonuses to stats.

today I've been consistently either on the top 3 of the losing team or on the bottom half of the winning team

mostly the former

How do you figure out whether or not a question needs to be deleted. It's not a duplicate. The only problem with it is it is extremely subject to that one person and probably will not help or effect anyone? It is a new user and by the looks of it looks like he is just grasping a random question f...

support deleting

@Retrosaur I kind of had figured that was your original intent - hence my immediate instinct to roll back what Raven did, figuring it was shaping the question to fit the answer. Then I saw the sentence about the supercollider dropdown that others had pointed to, and figured that maybe that was what you were asking, and rolled back my rollback. So... yeah.

TL;DR: You wrote an unclear question, which is a pretty good example of how not to ask a great question! So chalk it up as a learning experience!

9:50 PM

I hate summer construction

@MBraedley I hate summer.

@LessPop_MoreFizz But you're a gamer, you spend all day inside anyway!

Ben Brocka

@badp Outstandingly mediocre™

@MBraedley Lies. I have to go out into the world to work.

@BenBrocka yesssssss

9:55 PM

The hot, humid world.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Only so much as to get in a car/bus

@badp Grats on living in a country that finally managed to put a pedophile in jail after god knows how many years of electing him to be your head of state.

unless you work outside, in which case, I'm sorry

@MBraedley My office is a station wagon.

@LessPop_MoreFizz HAHAHAHAAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH no.

He's not going to jail.

Not yet, anyway.

This is just the first degree verdict

9:56 PM

@badp But he's barred from holding office!

There's going to be an appeal

(He'll be prime minister again by the time Obama's out of office.)

then there's going to be another appeal

then their lawyers will figure something out

What country is this?

@badp My sarcasm did not come through clearly enough I guess.

@ShotgunNinja Italy.

9:57 PM

@LessPop_MoreFizz I thought there was misinformation there, but just fyi it is a great feat that we've managed to get this far

@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah, okay.

Silvio Berlusconi was sentenced to 7 years and barred from ever seeking or holding public office today for hiring a prostitute who was an underage girl to attend one of his 'Bunga Bunga Parties' and perform sexual services for him.
