12:00 AM
 
Sometimes, I weep for humanity. Other times, I just sigh and say good riddance.
 
@FAE Take a step back, take a deep breath, and consider all of the difficult situations you've made it through in your life.
 
@Frank I've never understood how this was anything other than entrapment. >_>
 
@Fluttershy Entrapment is luring someone into committing a crime. This is merely luring a criminal out of hiding.
 
@Fluttershy They're not convincing him into doing an illegal act. That's what entrapment is.
 
12:03 AM
Ooooooh.
 
All they're doing is going, "Hey, you're cute. Wanna go for a drink/cigarette/other public place?"
 
Wait... so... what about all the undercover cops who pose as prostitutes?
 
@Fluttershy It's the entire basis of law-enforcement.
@Fluttershy You commit the crime by approaching them.
 
@Fluttershy The john is the one initiating the process.
 
Huh. That makes sense.
 
12:04 AM
 
Entrapment is more like: "Hey, go steal this for me!"
In criminal law, entrapment is when a law enforcement agent induces a person to commit an offense that the person would have otherwise been unlikely to commit. It is a type of conduct that is generally frowned upon, and thus in many jurisdictions is a possible defense against criminal liability. Depending on the law in the jurisdiction, the prosecution may be required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was not entrapped or the defendant may be required to prove that they were entrapped as an affirmative defense. Sting operations are fraught with ethical concerns over ...
 
FAE
@DavidM Doing that just kind of makes me depressed.
 
@Fluttershy This actually gets challenged in court quite a bit; it's not as common a tactic as tv/movies would have you believe, specifically because of how difficult it is to avoid entrapment defenses that can bog the process down in court.
Even if the cops end up winning, it becomes a pain in the ass to prosecute.
 
@FAE My suspicion is that they will likely help you with that, too.
Great example of entrapment is that To Catch a Predator stuff. Where they actually tell someone that they want to meet them and have a sexual relationship with them, etc. Sure the guys are creepy, and willing. But, it is less likely that they would show up without the encouragement and enticement.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz I totally read over that second sentence and didn't parse the joke at first
@DavidM Yeah, hoping.
 
12:09 AM
@FAE You will do fine.
 
@FAE It doesn't help that Putin's next to "Quit Stalin" and Josef's next to "Be My Vladentine".
It took me awhile to remember that Putin's first name is Vladimir.
 
FAE
@DavidM Thanks. :)
 
@FAE Imagine the authority that would have held if I had been wearing my doctoring hat while I said it!
 
FAE
@DavidM haha
 
It's a very impressive hat!
 
12:14 AM
 
Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner are going to be so bored. :(
 
FAE
@Yuki oh god ow
 
I tagged it for you just because you're the biggest Disneyphile I've met.
 
@Yuki ...
 
12:16 AM
@DavidM I'll have to save it for later because I'm in the library without headphones.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz In what respect?
 
@FAE At least he didn't land crotch-first on one of the slabs of ice while it was upright?
 
They won't be going to Sid Ceasar's house every weekend any more. :(
 
@Yuki Seriously, that's something you could see Wiley Coyote doing!
 
He totally could have if it was a little bit to the left.
 
FAE
12:17 AM
@Yuki That would've made that image amazing.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Sid Ceasar died? (He was still alive?)
 
Yeah, a few hours ago. He was 91. :(
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz You'll have to watch History of the World to mourn!
 
I just might.
 
12:20 AM
Ok, so it's Cesar Romero, but the joke still holds.

Q: If I restart my game, can I link the new game to the Poke-Bank and re-obtain my Pokemon?

Shadow ZorgonOn Pokemon X and Y, I plan on re-setting my game. If I were to put all of my Pokemon into the bank, then reset, could I re-link the bank and the game so I can re-obtain my Pokemon?

 
I'm assuming step 1 is "fall through the ice".
 
@Yuki I assume it's get head above water.
 
Well... that's a bit extreme for a prank, but I guess that's how the Japanese roll...
 
FAE
@Yuki I've seen the video for this
 
12:23 AM
When I was in High School doing some research on a frozen pond (Leed's Pond @LessPop_MoreFizz), one of our guys fell through the ice and we had to rescue him.
 
@Yuki He's strapped in. It's a fake!
 
FAE
And sleeptime for me, g'night all.
 
@FAE Goodnight! :D
 
 
user43095
Not sure if this guy is trolling.
 
@JeffreyLin it's defacing the post... just Minecraft to minecraft is bad enough
 
@Yuki fail
 
user43095
@Braiam More specifically, I edit it, and then he decides to make it better, but roll back the top paragraph?
 
facepalm
 
user43095
Unless he doesn't know how to refresh to see the new changes.
 
user43095
That's possible.
 
@JeffreyLin I think you and I were editing that simultaneously.
 
@Yuki doh
 
@JeffreyLin I didn't get any notifier saying anyone else was editing it, though.
 
user43095
12:35 AM
@DavidM We're talking about the suggested edit.
 
user43095
Look at the revision changes.
 
Oh yeah. I see. Well, I guess I fixed it back ...
 
user43095
Well, that's good.
 
@JeffreyLin Now that I see the revision history, I'm annoyed that I said the original edit was helpful. Damnit.
@JeffreyLin I've had it happen to me that I went to edit a post and it rolled itself back for no apparent reason, though. But, I did notice it on my own and fix it.
I must have accidentally hit the pull-down or something.
 
Okay so Steam In Home Streaming works a thousand times better than Steam OS does
 
12:45 AM
@BenBrocka don't you need steam OS in order to use streaming right now?
 
No
It's just a (barely) closed beta you get in by joining the In Home Streaming group
 
Maybe I should do that for my HTPC.
 
They're handing out invites like candy if you want to try it, I think I got mine days after joining
should let you stream from any Steam install, linux mac or Windows

Q: Can i undelete worlds

user69194I accidenaly deleted my world,is there a way to find the files somewhere on my computer? I have already looked where the files would be if I hadn't deleted the world am using mac but is not 100% mine so i cant do anything too crazy.

 
It had some weird audio/video hiccups in HL2, but played it at 60 FPS with unnoticable input lag (2ms input, 30ms display lag), plays BL2 with no visual or audio problems at all excpet it oddly insists on streaming 30FPS with only 20% network utilization (wireless on a single band router btw)
 
12:52 AM
@Yuki I hated Office Space.
 
I lost an entire rep cap to the rep cap today. :(
Damn you rep cap!
 
get into the database and all the surplus @LessPop_MoreFizz loses should be accounted to him

Q: Video game peak sounds lowers pandora's music volume. how to stop this

Bigpeteas the title states. While i play video games i like to have Pandora playing in the background. The main problem i'm having is that any of the larger sounds(spikes in volume) in the game lower my music volume so low i can't hear it. this is super annoying. I am running windows 8.1 with a MSI ...

 
BORED
 
1:07 AM
takes the boredom out @spugsley using dubious "magic"
 
@spugsley do what I am doing.
 
...drinking?
 
Which is to say, watch house of cards again in preparation for Season 2.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz oh yeah, that's actually a good idea. Ian's been begging me to watch it
 
Yes watch it watch it watch it.
Kevin Spacey is a Bad Bad Man.
 
1:09 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I might finish the Tudors first. Only got 2 episodes left and then he dies and England is sad etc

Q: What is depositing gil to a retainer for?

OmegaIn Realm Reborn they keep mentioning that you can safely entrust your gil to your retainer. What is that supposed to be for? You don't lose gil for dying, I think. I know that retainers can have their own gil balance, because you need to retrieve the gil you got from selling items - so withdrawi...

Q: How do I get the AR cards on the digital download version via 3ds?

1:22 AM
@Lazers IMPOSTER
 
@StrixVaria everytime I see him post a question I always think it's you
 
@Wipqozn My reaction just now was "I don't remember asking that."
Then I realize his avatar is infuriatingly uncentered.
Then I compare them and realize mine is fuzzy :(
 
@StrixVaria time for some mod abuse and remove his avatar privileges.
 
Last time this happened I changed to @InvaderSkoodge for a while.
 
@StrixVaria I noticed that too.
 
1:26 AM
There we go.
 
Oh, yay, @StrixVaria changed back.
 
@FEichinger At least my name didn't change!
 
Why, yes, that's a big plus!
 
I preferred it when you were Rarity Gir.
 
I, for the record, will always be your friendly neighbourhood Asgard.
 
1:39 AM
@MBraedley I could never get into SG1.
 
(Even if the image is of an assgard)
@Wipqozn I think it's on netflix.
 
It's on Space Channel all the time as well I think.
At least it used to be.
I've seen a few episodes, it was okay, just never really drew me in.
 
@Wipqozn I feel it works better when you actually watch it in the right order.
Took me quite a while to get into it, too, but now I'm just waiting for another opportunity to marathon through it.
 
mmm Cheerwine :3
 
Especially the later seasons. So many episodes start with "previously on Stargate: SG1"
 
1:46 AM
@Wipqozn It's a good Gir
 
Fluttershy Gir is best Gir.
 
He's a robot not a tree
 
Hey guys just got back from night high school

Q: Game asking to install older directx. Should I allow it?

ValamasI have the latest directx. However, I am installing an older game and it asks it I would like to install Directx 6.1 Should I allow the install program to do that?

Jeesus christ that is like a thousand a second
 
Depends on your browser. I got chrome up to 8k at 30 fps once.

Jonah BishopThe sector map in FTL is a multi-pathed "tree" with each leaf colored to represent its type: Green: Civilian sectors Red: Hostile sectors Purple: Nebula sectors Sector colors appear to be generated at the beginning of the game, and they remain the same throughout the course of the current gam...

The imperial tasks are just ??? No words. I have tried forcing the app to shut down as well as cycling my iPhone 5 on and off. ...

 
If a PauseUnPause falls in the woods, does anyone hear him?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Hot.
 
Wow. Did not expect that. A tie in Women's Downhill.
That's... insane.
 
Well, that's another Steam feature ruined by the internet.
 
2:51 AM
@GnomeSlice Yep.
They should hire us to do tag cleanup
 
Hey guys what is up just played with skydoesminecraft
 
@Stizzle84 What, modded survival games?
 
Everything will be tagged with dicks.
 
Cops and robbers
 
@GnomeSlice Tag all the things with 'Indie' 'procedurally generated' and 'roguelike'
 
2:54 AM
No offense but he is obsessed with me going to his house
 
@TrentHawkins They should only let certain people tag shit. Like me.

@Stizzle84 Did yall record?
 
No
 
Of course you didn't. Until you do, I don't believe you.
 
2:55 AM
@GnomeSlice I can get behind this.
 
He also got the flu he just text me
And guess where my dogs r
 
I think this is the third time I've watched this today
 
Why do I feel like I'm in the wrong room all of a sudden?

I love it
 
@FEichinger You're not.
Don't worry.
Just.
I have no clue
Other than spam limiter
 
2:57 AM
@FEichinger What do you mean?
 
Also we played hide and seek and recorded
 
@Stizzle84 Ah, much better. I'll check it out -- did you mention either me or the word "Stizzle?"
If Stizzle is a word :P
 
Dude all of the hiders ganded up on the seekers we both burst out laughing
 
Uhuh, doesn't that happen everytime?
 
Not really there was wooden planks even a door
 
3:01 AM
You're starting to make it less believable now, "Sparklez"
 
I meanshened peach
Not stizzle
 
Speaking of minecraft
 
You mentioned peach? :D
 
Of course i also ate one :D
 
Since when are there peaches in Minecraft?
 
3:04 AM
No in real life
Dude guess where my dogs r
 
Ah. Well then it's once again less believable. Did you just say peach while you were eating it, or specifically "shout out?"
 
I said peach then ate one in real life
 
Btw, it says you're 13 years old
 
I know it does
I havent seen try hard ninja in forever though have u seen him
 
So fucking good
 
3:09 AM
Um dude shut up with the cussing
 
Cursing is allowed here.
 
@GnomeSlice Oh no don't just say it in a blanket way like that.
It's not like a free pass to say whatever you want.
 
There's a difference between cursing and being offensive.
 
The first is usually okay, unless it's also the second.
 
3:10 AM
@Unionhawk Yes. That's what I was trying to get at but I'm too tired to words.
 
Shit dropped my popcorn
 
I don't like cussing either, but if it's not offensive and not specifically banned its ok by the site rules
 
@GnomeSlice I was all about this until the girl started singing.
 
@StrixVaria Keep listening.
 
James lets go to the minecraft talk
 
3:11 AM
@GnomeSlice Yeah she stopped, but it's not as good anymore :(
Too...gatey?
 
Gatey?
 
I don't know if "gate" is the right word.
 
I don't think it is.
I really dig it
 
@Stizzle84 What about just General Communication?
 
@StrixVaria Doesn't matter. Make up a new word instead.
 
3:12 AM
@FEichinger Sure. It's way too gatey.
 
Ya lets go there now
 
@StrixVaria that album is rad
 
I'll listen after this Pendulum song because I already started it and remembered how much I like it now.
Oh it's a Pendulum remix.
 
It's a remix of the same song.
 
3:13 AM
Hm...
Still going to wait until this is done.
My wife vetoed having Pendulum played at the wedding.
 
Good for her.
 
Weddings are not for Pendulum.
Play it on the honeymoon instead
amirite
 
None of the music I like is wedding-appropriate.
 
@StrixVaria Yeah, let your wife pick.
Really really really enjoy that album.
 
3:16 AM
I'm listening to Steel and Glass since you said that's your favorite song.
If I don't like it I won't listen to the others.
 
they're all good
but yeah I like it the most
 
The Pendulum remix was ok.
 
man you listened to those things fast
 
@GnomeSlice I skimmed.
 
@StrixVaria Don't do that.
 
3:17 AM
WELL YOU'RE LINKING THINGS TOO FAST
 
Queue!
 
This song sounds like it's meant to be background music.
There isn't enough interesting going on for it to keep my attention, but it's fine.
 
@GnomeSlice That's awesome
 
@StrixVaria That guy did the music for Frozen Synapse.
 
@GnomeSlice meh
 
3:18 AM
@StrixVaria </3
@SaintWacko wheeee
Pretty cool mash of dance music and chiptunes
ish
 
@GnomeSlice Neat.
 
@StrixVaria I had a couple bandcamp codes to give away a while ago, but they're all gone, sorry.
 
I like the music by that girl who did Super Hexagon.
 
@StrixVaria Chipzel is great.
 
3:21 AM
@GnomeSlice Yeah that's it.
Speaking of, I should play some Super Hexagon.
 
@StrixVaria chipzel.co.uk
She has a bunch of free stuff too.
And her newest album (Spectra) is fantastic.
@StrixVaria One more for you: iammosh.bandcamp.com/album/empire
 
This one is immediately the most interesting of all the ones you linked.
 
It's also free.
And pretty dope.
@StrixVaria You know what, just look at this bandcamp.com/gnomeslice
His previous album is linked on the right, and is also free.
Also one of my recent favourites.
Also if you're a huge nerd, John Hurt's voice is in track 2.
 
@StrixVaria Yeah.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Are you a fan?
 
3:29 AM
@GnomeSlice Not really.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh.
Because I was going to suggest Pivvot
on iOS
or Android
 
Quitting gyms is literally the hardest thing on this planet to do.
The first time I had collections filed against me.
 
@StrixVaria What? Don't you just like stop going?
 
@GnomeSlice Ahahaha
 
This time I followed their cancellation procedure, got a message saying "sorry to lose you!", and they just charged my credit card again.
 
3:32 AM
My girlfriend cancelled the credit card they had on file in order to quit
Because they were giving her a runaround
 
@SaintWacko Same, but that's when they filed collections.
They would rather ruin your credit than let you quit the gym.
 
Naive @GnomeSlice is my favorite @GnomeSlice.
 
@StrixVaria Yep
 
Anyway I actually made a good faith attempt to cancel this time.
So I'm just going to make credit claims.
 
@StrixVaria This is the appropriate thing to do. Chargebacks hurt them more than any whining you could do.
 
3:35 AM
What about whinging?
 
Hopefully you documented your initial cancellation process?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I have their response email that says "sorry you're leaving us"
They make their process as un-documentable as possible.
 
You have to go to their website, print this nondescript barcode, and mail it to them.
 
@StrixVaria That's good, but if you had a copy of the form you filled out, that would have been better.
 
3:36 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz There is no form.
 
(Or a copy of said nondescript barcode.)
 
I might be able to get copies of that...
 
But honest, most CC companies err on the side of trust the customer, so their reply should be enough to fuck them over pretty hard with a chargeback.
 
SEASON FINALE
though it's not nearly as interesting as it once was. Definitely started strong and ended kinda bleh
 
@spugsley You should watch House of Cards. It ends strong.
Also I want somebody else to talk to about what a BAD BAD MAN Kevin Spacey is.
 
user15026
3:44 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Why is he bad?
 
@AshleyNunn You should watch House of Cards and find out! It's Really Good!
Oh snap, Comcast buying Time Warner Cable.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz You keep telling me that, but I am not really sure about it

Q: How can I reclaim a barony from a Holy Order?

pacofvfI just need to take control of one barony to restore the Roman Empire, but that barony is hands of a Holy Order, I've tried excommunicating them, and also tried to create a claim, but my counselor never creates a claim in the barony itself, any ideas?

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah hell
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Is this a bad thing?
 
3:50 AM
@AshleyNunn It doesn't affect me, aside from my general distrust of the ever growing consolidation of American ISP's. (My ISP, Cablevision, isn't part of the megadeal.)
 
I love amanita design
 
As to whether it's bad for TWC customers... as much as people complain about Comcast, I'd imagine that they complain less than TWC customers complain.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz hard to say which is worse from my impressions
I have mediacom, who is also dreadful but will be unaffected
 
Wooooooow
 
If the FTC (anticompet is there thing right?) doesn't shut it down it'll only prove no one in the government has any concept of how important this "internet" is
 
3:55 AM
Yeah, there is absolutely nothing good that can come from TWC and Comcast being together.
 
Pff there's plenty of competition! Nearly .1% of America can choose Google Fiber and that makes it fiiiiiiine. There was a hearing and everything
It's just a series of tubes anyway
