SPAMMING != BUTTONMASHING

Q: CS:GO limited to 8 wins only in offline with bots mode

cracker_chanThere's no "mp_win_limit" nor "sv_maxrounds" / "max_wins" in the console command. When playing offline with both it is always limited to 8 wins. Is there a way or a console command to change this? Thanks,

 
@OrigamiRobot OK, I'm done.
 
Talking to the lady at the PokeCenter? Button mashing!
 
@OrigamiRobot When you're using one attack (which is usually keyed to one button) over and over again, that's buttonmashing.
 
@murgatroid99 WHEN I SAY BUTTON MASHING, I MEAN "HIT ALL THE BUTTONS AT THE SAME TIME AND WHATEVER THE GAME ACCEPTS IS FINE"
 
4:01 PM
@OrigamiRobot That is absolutely not how you can play Dark Souls
 
SPAMMING IS HITTING HTE SAME BUTTON OVER AND OVER
 
@OrigamiRobot aka #1 Soul Calibre Strategy
 
How then is it button mashing to just hit attack over and over?
 
@murgatroid99 THAT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I DID EVERY TIME I ATTACKED
 
@OrigamiRobot By that definition, your "block until you figure out patterns" step automatically rules out buttonmashing in Dark Souls.

Oh look, an enemy! spaz out on controller Oh I died...
 
@OrigamiRobot And again, I say that defines EVERY ACTION GAME EVER.
When you're not doing x, you're buttonmashing. Yes, that applies to every action game ever.

@Yuuki SOME GAMES HAVE DIFFERENT KINDS OF ATTACKS FOR DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
 
@OrigamiRobot Like what "some game"?
 
Zelda
 
4:04 PM
^ ZELDA
 
This boss is weak against that Boomerang you happened to find in this dungeon
 
SOME ENEMIES ARE IMMUNE TO SOME KINDS OF ATTACKS
I NEVER SAW AN ENEMY IN DARK SOULS THAT WAS IMMUNE TO A CERTAIN KIND OF ATTACK (LIGHT STRONG)
THEY HAD ELEMENTAL WEAKNESSES, I THINK
THERE WERE TACTICS IN WEAPON CHOICE
NOW I HAVE TO GO TO LUNCH
 
HAVE to eh?
 
@OrigamiRobot The only tactic in Zelda was, "what was the last item I picked up in this dungeon?"
 
Force feedback for VR.
That's totally not a spider on your hand.
 
4:06 PM
The only skill you needed for Zelda was the ability to remember what happened in the last hour.
 
And how to break pots
 
"Oh, that's right I picked up the boomerang for this dungeon. I think I should use that for this boss."
 
@Frank That's actually a really cool idea
 
and cutting grass
 
@RPiAwesomeness At least until it snaps your fingers.
 
4:07 PM
If you're lampooning Dark Souls for single-minded strategies, do not bring up Zelda as a counter-example.
 
@Pvt.Grichmann Yeah...that sounds kinda painful
 
@Pvt.Grichmann That was my first thought as well.
@Yuuki Your mom's a single minded strategy.
Oh buuuurrrnnn
 
@Wipqozn Your single-minded strategy's your mom.
 
@Yuuki Oh buuurrrrnnnnnnn
 
@Wipqozn This looks much more familiar with the old turtle image next to it
 
4:08 PM
Boy, they've created a new way for terrorists to strike, they're going to murder the VR community via their own hands!
 
@RPiAwesomeness Once they streamline the tech into something that doesn't look like it eats your hand, anyways.
 
Getting awfully hot in here
 
@Batophobia What on earth are you doing?
 
@Batophobia Your mom's getting awfully hot in here. Wait, what?
 
Too many burns
Also, 3 hours since last star?
 
4:09 PM
@Yuuki AWKward
@Batophobia We need to change this.
QUICKLY! THINK OF SOMETHING MEMORABLE!
 
It's almost like the Bridge is succumbing to the SE desire to stop star-spam
 
@RPiAwesomeness No.
 
WE. MUST. STAR. STUFF!
 
Star ALL the things!
 
@Batophobia O.O Oh noes
 
4:10 PM
Nothing's been starred in the last three hours. I approve of this.

make @Unionhawk re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-post "No"!
 
Okay I'm done
 
@Unionhawk Whoa...
 
No this is not permission to try out nested quotes here.
Dammit what have I done
 
4:11 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Oh, so you're one of them.
Those dirty filthy script users.
 
You've killed nested us all!
 
@Unionhawk Many a wrong thing sir, many a wrong thing.

if you want to play with nested quotes, go nuts
there
and not here
@Batophobia AND NOT HERE
 
Sigh...I had a $15 off $100 coupon on TigerDirect...wish I had been able to use it :(
 
@Unionhawk You need to stop saying things I can respond this:

Is @Wipqozn an owner of android hell? Because I think this is pretty much what that room was designed for.
 
Or that
 
FYI, this vid by VanossGaming is really funny...well, at least at midnight
 
@StrixVaria but but
 
That works too
 
@Unionhawk I used to be. I can't remember who removed me, but I was removed s joke.
It was likely either @LessPop_MoreFizz or @badp.
 
4:15 PM
mod abuse
 
Slight aside, @badp is super rad.
 
@Unionhawk That damnable puppet!
 
Indeed.
 
He's basically a monster.
Like Chucky.

Q: Jump vs Warp to X in cloaky ships

hexparrotI'm a new player in Eve Online who generally is flying Covert Ops ships in nullsec for relic/data sites. Since I need to return to hisec regularly to sell my goods, I find myself constantly passing through camped stargates. My question is about the safety of the 'Jump' option. Most of the foru...

Q: What are the odds of finding a chest?

BatophobiaEvery once in a while, instead of an enemy I fight a chest. After it is killed, it drops lots of gold. I also noticed the "Treasure Hunter" achievement that says "Open 10,000 treasure chests". So, how are treasure chests found? Is there a way I can improve my odds of finding them? Is it poss...

 
This one has hooked me harder than previous ones.
 
Dangit @StrixVaria now I have 4 incramentals going at the same time
 
I HAVE MIDTERMS GOING AND ALSO REAL GAMES TO PLAY TOO DAMMIT NO
WHY
 
In this one the higher tiered things make lower tiered things.
Which produce in turn even lower tiered things.
 
4:23 PM
Wait wat
 
argh. internet.suck.eth
 
@Unionhawk Drones make meat every second. Queens make drones every second. Nests make queens every second.
And it doesn't seem to stop.
 
I see...
 
So, uh, the Windows 10 Preview/Insiders program comes with a 5 years NDA
 
NDAs are still dumb.
 
4:26 PM
@StrixVaria Zerg: The Incremental Game?
 
@Unionhawk It's pretty well made. Neat UI and a bunch of stuff to do even though there's no "manual farm" button like in some other incrementals.
 
@Unionhawk This GIF though...cracks me up
 
@Yuuki That is an accurate description.
I just watched 15 seconds of gameplay of this Shadows of Mordor game and now I need it.
 
Hey @OrigamiRobot, I found your favourite site! slittens.tumblr.com
 
Oookay...so I went to look at the Five Nights at Freddies Wiki, and they really make it weird. They even change your pointer...
 
4:29 PM
On a scale from yes to yes how likely is this site to be related to sloths...
That's a yep.
Called it.
I'm so smart

OH NO @STERNO IS HERE, QUICK, EVERYBODY GET OFF HIS LAWN
 
@Unionhawk Oh, I get it, because @Sterno is old and old people often yell at young people to get off their lawn. That's funny,.

@Sterno My daughter just got 3 shots today. It was :(
 
@StrixVaria We found that if we bring an ice pack and ice the spot about to get shots, she barely notices them
She still cries a little but it's over in a few seconds
Whoever is starring all the cats should have their stars revoked.
 
4:37 PM
@Sterno Interesting.
 
@Sterno You could cancel the stars. This will not only remove the stars, but will also create drama.
 
@Sterno Whose idea was that?
 
@Yuuki Marvin A. Nutterbutter
@Wipqozn I don't like to create drama. I like to participate in drama.
 
@Sterno The guy who invented the Nutter Butter? Or did he do the Oreo?
 
4:40 PM
@Sterno If I make some drama will you pay me?
 
@Sterno One thing the doctor did after the first shot was rattle a piece of wood into the wall to make a little noise, which instantly distracted the baby and made her forget about the pain. Then the doctor said "That won't work again for the next one."
 
@Yuuki He invented socks.
@StrixVaria It's worse when they get a little older and can cling to you while crying and saying "nooooooooo, nooooo daddy!"
 
@Sterno I bet.
 
@Sterno That sounds horrible.
 
While the nurse tries for the 4th fucking time to stick the IV needle in her arm because she's got 105 fever from pneumonia
I think I have PTSD from that.
She seems over it though!
 
4:43 PM
A nurse has 2 attempts at sticking a needle in an arm before I tell her to go get a competent nurse for the next attempt after that.
 
They actually traded after 2
There were 2 nurses
And I was holding her down the whole time

Q: Any clues on the general availability date of mission creation

Enmos ProjeDoes anyone know when the general player base will be available to create missions?

 
well then. I apparently missed a sad party
 
@Rapitor It did, and it ended in sorrow.
 
@Unionhawk #1 is pretty hard to judge when you have kids. Everything goes in their mouths
Yesterday my daughter and I went for a walk, and she was way more interested in the dog poop in someone's yard than the bunny we saw
 
Whelp, I might just bought Shadows of Mordor.
 
4:58 PM
@Sterno it's the smell
@5pike might?
 
Oh god dammit
 
@Rapitor Ok, I have.
 
I have heard multiple times that I'd be a good parent, but I feel like I could handle none of that.
 
But now, I have a problem
Can I have a second steam folder on another drive, or only one?
 
@5pike You can make steam folders on different drives. Then you can pick which one to use for each install.
 
5:00 PM
Yes
 
Oh, that's sweet.

Q: Install Steam on an external drive?

RCIXIf I install Steam to an external drive, will it work when I plug it into other computers? Or does it depend on registry keys/some other computer-specific thing?

 
@Unionhawk Thanks
 
@Sterno People who have Ebola can be quarantined before they're contagious
So long as she doesn't sneak into high-security areas of hospitals you should be fine
 
@Sterno your kid might be defective, do you still have warranty on her?

5:03 PM
Mhh... Failed to add new library folder
I read that it could be due to steam updating something. Will wait.
Anyways, can't believe that there's a store that sells legit steam keys that are this cheap.
 
How difficult is it to move a game from Program Files (x86) to Users\Koviko\Games?
And have it still work.
 
Got Shadows of Mordor for ~23€.
 
@badp She's pretty crafty.
 
@5pike Are you sure it's actually legit?
 
@Koviko depends entirely on the game
 
5:06 PM
@Wipqozn Yes, it's legit
 
It's possible you just handed over your credit card information to the Russian Mafia.
 
@Wipqozn Nope
Bought Dark souls 2 from the same site via paypal.
They would have stolen the money by now, if they were crooks.
 
@5pike They're just trying to get you to put your guard down.
 
@5pike Paypal? Or the Russian Mafia site?
 
You'll likely be missing an organ by tomorrow morning.
@JasonBerkan I don't think there's a difference.
 
5:08 PM
If you are curious, the site is called nuuvem
 
@RonanForman I have said this before. Please stop pinging me with sloth pictures.
 
If I'm gone, well, you know what happened.
 
Aren't we about due for a Steam sale?
 
@Sterno IIRC the fall sale and winter sale are usually really close to each other.
The next sale is probably going to be in November.
 
don't they do a halloween sale?

MinecraftMomMy son used his birthday money to buy a kindle and downloaded minecraft pocket edition but my husband used my amazon account.

@5pike You ate so much ice cream that your mass collapsed into a miniature star and now you can only communicate through pulses of light?
 
...
OF COURSE
 
What? Are we having ice cream?
I want some!
 
@Yuuki isn't he already only communicating via pulses of light?
I mean, this is the internet, there's probably a line of fiberglass somewhere
 
Which reminds me, it's around the time where they heavily discount icecream.
Even the really, really good ones.
 
5:22 PM
@KevinvanderVelden I don't think that's the word you mean
 
@OrigamiRobot Heh, good catch
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't see it
 
Fiberglass
 
Is fiberglass just a word dutchies use?
(In that way)
 
Fiberglass is a building material
 
5:24 PM
Yeah, it's just fiber according to google
 
Fiberglass (or fibreglass) is the common name for glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) or alternatively glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) Fiberglass is also known as GFK, for German: Glasfaserverstärkter Kunststoff. Because glass fibre itself is sometimes referred to as "fiberglass", the composite is also called fiberglass reinforced plastic. This article will adopt the convention that "fiberglass" refers to the composite rather than only to the glass fiber within it. Fiberglass is a member of a larger group of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP). In fiberglass the reinforcement fiber is glass fiber...
 
@KevinvanderVelden "optical fiber" usually
 
@OrigamiRobot yeah, googling fiberglass also returned as first (ad) a link for KPN internet, so...
Weirdness
 
While fiber optic cable is usually a fiber made of glass, fiberglass is a very specific thing.
Yay language!
 
5:26 PM
To differentiate from fiberglass, nutritional fiber, multiprocessing related fibers, etc
 
what about carbon fiber?
 
@Rapitor That would be fiber composed of uranium.
 
@Rapitor That's included in the "etc"
 
Yes, English is confusing.
 
Alternately, a fiber made of plastic, which is the other component of fiberglass!
Now we've all learned something today.
 
5:29 PM
In computer science, a fiber is a particularly lightweight thread of execution. Like threads, fibers share address space. However, fibers use co-operative multitasking while threads use pre-emptive multitasking. Threads often depend on the kernel's thread scheduler to preempt a busy thread and resume another thread; fibers yield themselves to run another fiber while executing. The article on threads contains more on the distinction between threads and fibers. == Fibers and coroutines == Fibers describe essentially the same concept as coroutines. The distinction, if there is any, is that coroutines...

@murgatroid99 at least there is some effort put into it
 
Why is it on META

@Batophobia Yeah, it should be on SO. :P
 
With a title like that, Arqade might be better :P
 
@Batophobia I'd bet that user is question-banned from SO
 
@murgatroid99 That is so awesome. I'm sure it'll be deleted soon.
@murgatroid99 That's their only account.
 
@MBraedley so it is

@OrigamiRobot True.
 
I've screencapped it for posterity.
 
I GOT THE DOWNVOTE TEXT IN THERE FOR GOOD MEASURE

To be among the roughly 17 people to downvote that is quite an honor
(and I say roughly because of potential community downvotes)
 
@OrigamiRobot Or when you guys were there while I attempted to hunt while being attacked by wasps.
 
@Yuuki I MISSED THAT ONE :(
 
5:45 PM
@Yuuki that was only me, and it was hilarious.
My favourite is that @Yuuki was more concerned about not abandoning me than he did about not dying.

Q: minecraft set spawn point

marcI currently have a server and me and one of my friends wants to do a prank and i made myself an op. The Prank I want to set another players spawn point in a pit of lava, how would i do this without affecting anyone else's spawn point?

 
@Lazers dupe
maybe
 
@MBraedley I think the answer is "this is not possible because the player needs to spawn on a block"
I don't think /spawnpoint will let you set a mid-air spawn, I think it'll obstruct if you do that.
Not certain.
 
Not that it's a great prank, because the person being pranked needs to be online in order to initiate it, and then needs to die.
@Unionhawk That's easy to solve.
there's a bunch of player detectors that can trigger a piston.
