@badp There is no escape from the dark room

@badp Both of my TVs are admittedly Samsung Smart TVs, though luckily neither has a microphone, and I didn't really buy them for that reason. I can write apps for them though, which is nifty.

It's JavaScript, so technically you could even throw jQuery in there and solve all your problems!

badp

@TimStone would the jQuery be able to reduce it to a regular TV for TV viewing

Q: Gta5 letter scrap problem

I have one letter scrap left to get and I want 100% so I went on to my social club account but it would not show me any of my Xbox gta stats and details

grand-theft-auto-5

Unionhawk

That would be against the EULA

badp

it's even got a WEB BROWSER in it. How scary is that? It is ABSOLUTELY FUCKING SCARY.

Unionhawk

11:17 PM

Obviously

Tim Stone

Something had to render the apps ;P

But yes, that aspect is terrifying because those browsers are notoriously bad security-wise.

Unionhawk

But you could theoretically Bridge via TV

THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES

THE POSSIBILITIES ARE DECIDEDLY LIMITED

Tim Stone

TV Bridge would be like mobile Bridge but if you shot yourself in the kneecaps and then used them to type.

New goal: Get Xbox to accept voice commands to post stuff to the Bridge

Yelling at the TV and users at the same time is the pinnacle of mod abuse luxury.

Oh okay VLC you just randomly show a frame from my Foscam from like three hours ago.

>_>

I thought she was a baby ocelot, but then her owner told me she gets "her spots done at the groomer every month" http://t.co/uS0cyZcYPX

What in the hell

Unionhawk

11:25 PM

That is definitely a dog

Tim Stone

True, but I also question the owner's decision to pay to get that done instead of giving us the money for something more worthwhile like drinking. Or games. Or both.

Unionhawk

Drinking games?

Tim Stone

Yes!

Unionhawk

11:42 PM

Sounds like a plan

The plan being... I dunno

GodEmperorDune

i wouldn't recommend drinking with crazy ocelot painting owner

Unionhawk

As long as he had something to do.

And you didn't also need to find a Nova Scotia separatist terrorist

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk speaking of which, i haven't seen @Wipqozn in a while

he might be taking down another tim horton's

Unionhawk

He's probably blowing up a Tim Hortons as we speek

Man, thank you @fredley for making this a Thing

GodEmperorDune

what did @fredley make a Thing?

Unionhawk

11:50 PM

This

this.isThing()
True

badp

@TimStone I tried posting a message from it, but Stack Exchange OpenID just can't handle this level of success

(I got 404 errors from the login page because reasons)

Tim Stone

wat

lol

GodEmperorDune

@badp sounds like a meta.se bug report

Unionhawk

10/10

GodEmperorDune

@badp 404/10, would be unable to find resource again

Tim Stone

11:52 PM

@GodEmperorDune Sports.SE would clearly benefit from people being able to watch TV and chat at the same time

badp

@GodEmperorDune I still have this pending

Q: Emojis in careers messaging result in ��

Stack Exchange Careers clobbered my 😅 into ��. This offends my basic human right of using emojis in professional communication with prospective employers. It also probably means that somewhere in the stack, Unicode wasn't handled correctly. Fair disclosure: I'm using Chrome for Android so I can...
