@Arperum Same as me!

Also, what do my astral energy drinks do?

Arperum

@fredley I'm hoping for a third elemental gravy fairy.

I have firey and stinky.

@fredley No idea, never took any of these things, must have more karma for perming skills

fredley

@Arperum It would take 100 adventures to get enough astral food leftover karma to perm a single skill!

Arperum

@fredley Shush. I currently have 75 leftover karma, discarding instant karma you get during an ascension adds 11 more to that total, once I end up with a nice round number I might start using these things.

Q: Scripting a pause in steam

Is there a way to make a steamscript wait/hold for a certain time before the next action/command gets executed? I found the wait command and apparently it was used in TF2 scripts. I tried using it in DotA2 but the console tells me that it does not know the command. Is there any way around this...

Q: What's the most efficient way to score up?

I'm pretty confused about this game (I'm playing it on Steam, Oculus version, if that's of any importance): what's the best way to get points ? Should I activate as many structures as I can ? Or should I rather try to stick as long as possible to their surface (which makes a little sound, like ...

5pike

Seems like chess players are prone to cannibalism. Very interesting.

fredley

@Blem-baFett Such a violent game

@fredley Well, it's basically a war simulation.

fredley

@5pike Most strategy guides advise sacrificing your own troops to win, it's practically psychopathic in nature

5pike

@fredley HA

fredley

@5pike :(

Kevin van der Velden

@fredley and it reinforces the patriarchy by having the only truly important piece be the king!

fredley

@KevinvanderVelden Terrible.

Kevin van der Velden

11:09 AM

@fredley it is truly a horrible game, I should play it more

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden Have you ever tried to run some king into a checkmate with a king and one other piece? I'd rather use a queen and said other piece (and have my king safely in the back of course)

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum yeah, but if any piece other than the king is at risk the game moves on. The man is in danger and suddenly everything must stop!

5pike

More often than not, chess ends in a stalemate, which is bullshit.

Kevin van der Velden

@5pike not when I play it, but then I suck and the people I play against play it a lot

As in, one of them used to play it in competitions

5pike

When I was young, I used to visit a chess course. I think the guy teaching wasn't very good, because every time he was loosing, he declared that the game was suddenly in a stalemate.

What fun times.

Arperum

11:17 AM

@5pike That sounds cheap and stupid.

5pike

@Arperum Exactly.

fredley

I am now meat

5pike

The guy also promptly removed the pieces, so we couldn't call him out on his BS

Arperum

@5pike So much BS.

You should leave the pieces be and then see what you could have done different, or if it was still possible to somehow fix it.

fredley

Should I be golden meat though?

@Blem-baFett Did you know? I'm from Sicily!

@fredley There is no such thing. Do you feel like existing today?

fredley

@badp I've been golden meat for years, pretty sure I exist

Chat avatar sync is slow

badp

@fredley That's not the color of gold. It's the color of meat. Which is not gold.

Arperum

@badp Does that mean that you kill your opponent after a game of chess?

fredley

@badp One and the same

badp

@Arperum I don't like chess and won't play it.

@fredley The color of meat is one and the same as not gold.

Arperum

11:29 AM

@badp And by not playing preventing murder? How wonderfull!

Arperum

@badp They should give you a medal for not killing anyone.

fredley

11:33 AM

@badp I was more colourful than I am now

badp

@Arperum Not gold.

fredley

@badp I had more distinct colours in my avatar than you do

badp

@fredley As you have been certified gold-blind, you are not qualified to make statements about gold or not gold.

Please locate a gold-not-gold counselor for further assistance.

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum hence replying to the first one, I think the second one is a baby pig or something?

fredley

@badp Your avatar could be gold or not gold, the goldness of it is orthogonal to the colourdess of it

@KevinvanderVelden After looking at the url, that's what I would assume too. It doesn't look tasty though.

@fredley it does mean you needn't worry about them

@Blem-baFett I'm sorry for any company that requires operative systems with upwards of 12 year long lifecycles in order to function correctly.

because I think Windows XP holds a record that's not going to be matched any time soon by any sane OS provider.

So I hacked to large version of my scalable menu thing together for IE8. It includes images, line-height:0 and terrible code. Add a single space and the hack breaks. I hate it :( Now do the same for the stupid small version...

@Arperum This is why I can't do front-end work. My IE8 version of the whatever-it-is would say "STOP KILLING THE INTERNET" and not be functional.

Arperum

MUST ... NOT ... KILL

@StrixVaria I kinda told them that. The answer was: "Make it work."

I had a fancy scalable menu that could easily be inserted anywhere, and was friendly for people with text-based browsers, because the menu was made from text. Now everything is stupid images.

It is stupid however to tie your browser to only one or two versions of your OS
