god donut, Apple
 
FAE
@fredley Having fun?
 
No
Whatever the opposite of fun is, that is what I am having
 
Fun times!
 
Programming for the iWhatever and Mac is a frustrating experience.
 
@KevinvanderVelden Incorrect. Current times are not fun.
Protip: Never become an Apple developer
 
2:06 PM
No, what I'm about to type is fun times but was distracted
 
Oh hey, it's @FAE.
 
So, we're implementing a new payment option
 
FAE
@Wipqozn Hi!
 
@fredley Xamarin.
 
It does the correct thing of hashing the data it sends us with a private salt value and everything is happy
Except... we then try to validate the date they're sending with said salt and hash
But... we're getting a different calculated hash
 
2:07 PM
@JasonBerkan Too late
 
@FAE I tried removing you as room owner, and then I noticed you already removed me.

Q: Does Don Bradman Cricket on PS3 feature a versus mode?

AnweshApparently, there's no co-op mode in the game, but does it feature a one on one mode, where two people can play against each other on a single console? Like FIFA does.

 
Coworker emails the company: "Oh yeah, don't use the hash, why are you using the hash? Just check the IP address!"
 
Also, do I need to know C# to use Xamarin?
 
FAE
@Wipqozn Happy belated birthday!
 
2:08 PM
@fredley Yes
 
@fredley THis is glorious.
 
But it's not like C# is hard to learn =p
 
@FAE Thank you!
 
@KevinvanderVelden Depends on what you're doing with it.
 
@fredley Yes, but C# is not a difficult language.
 
2:08 PM
@KevinvanderVelden k. Adds to the overheads of doing it
@Wipqozn Thank you
It's the finger that makes it
 
@Powerlord I suppose, but eh
 
@FAE: So you missed a lot of roommate troubles I was talking about last night, but the end results is that I'll be getting my own place by October (when my current lease expires), and when I do I'll be getting new cat.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn I'm sorry about the roommate issues, that always sucks, but yay new place and kitty!
 
@Wipqozn Yay!
 
@FAE Yeah, I've definitely missed having a cat, but before I get anew one I want to be living solo.
 
FAE
2:16 PM
@Wipqozn Yeah, understandable. Plus putting cats through a move is never fun.
 
@FAE Nope. Learned that with my previous cat. It took a while until she left my bedroom.
Such a good song.
I've been listening to the notre dame ost a lot lately.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn it's so good
@Wipqozn Hellfire's kind of a batshit song but it's really good. RIP Tony Jay.
 
@FAE Hellfire is so good, and also so fucked up at the same time.
It's such a great piece for exploring the character Frollo, which is one thing "classic" disney always did really well.
 
New music from Dexter Britain
 
2:20 PM
@GnomeSlice I'm not sure who that is.
 
Dexter Britain, duh
 
I've showed you his stuff before and you liked it.
 
Sounds english
 
You mean you haven't heard of Dexter Britain?
@KevinvanderVelden Sounds murdery
 
@GnomeSlice I believe you.
 
2:21 PM
I hate you guys
 
@GnomeSlice Send it to me on facebook
Might not listen to it today, but if it's just posted in chat I'll forget about it and won't be able to find it later
 
@fredley yes, you don't need to repeat me
 
HamStare @KevinvanderVelden
@KevinvanderVelden ಠ_ಠ
 
Listening to the music of notre dame makes me want to watch it again. I've been watching clips on youtube, but want to see the whole movie.
IT's such a fantastic movie.
one of disneys best.
 
suggest it for movie night
 
2:23 PM
@Wipqozn Until Episode VII comes out.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn gargoyles are kind of dumb though
 
That movie has episodes?
 
@FAE Oh lord yes. The gargoyles were the only thing bad about that movie. They should just not be there.
@GnomeSlice Star Wars
 
FAE
2:24 PM
@Wipqozn Agreed. They just mess up the tone.
 
@Wipqozn They had to put something in for the kids.
 
I showed the latest trailer to my kids. My two year old spend the entire night running around saying "bacca! bacca!". It was cute.
 
@5pike Yeah, just what I was going to say. It was Disney feeling they needed something like that.
All their movies have some sort of goofy talking animal.
 
@Wipqozn Honestly, the movie is nothing for young kids.
I mean, there's a murder pretty early on.

Q: How many Dungeons are there?

ReafexusSimply enough how many different dungeons are there and how many bonus dungeons are there? Main dungeons are those with associated "Missions" from Magan's House like Crystalline Peak. "Bonus" Dungeons being those with "Quests" like Animal Trail.

0
Q: Can I buy Ariadne's Thread?

ReafexusMy Market is level 5 and I cannot buy Ariadne's Thread yet. Is there any point when it will become available for purchase?

 
2:26 PM
@FAE The Gargoyles could have worked if they didn't actually do anything, since in that case it would have been implied they weren't actually alive, and it was all just in his head.
It would have added a lot to quasmottos character, except spelled correctly.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn Quasimodo
 
@Wipqozn Gaygoyles?
 
@fredley Hey man, don't judge
 
@Wipqozn No judgement here.
If a grotesque stone gutter wants to be with a grotesque stone gutter of the same gender, who am I to interfere?
 
@fredley Good. GOOOOOOOD.
 
2:29 PM
Also, that's now the top name on my list of potential gay goth bar names.
 
@fredley bargoyle?
 
@GodEmperorDune That'd be a nice name for a straight goth bar.
 
@5pike <joke>
What did the pirate say?
 
</joke> - Ending this before it gets worse
 
@KevinvanderVelden :(
 
2:35 PM
:)
 
D:
 
:D
 
D':
 
Poor @fredley, not allowed to finish his jokes
 
Mhh...I'm curious about @fredleys joke now
 
2:40 PM
@5pike Fine then
<joke>
What did the pirate say?
 
What?
 
"AAArrrrrrr!"
Where did he say it?
 
@fredley at the "Barrrrrrr"?
 
@5pike Yes! How did he get there?
 
@fredley With a "Carrrr"?
 
2:41 PM
No, in a boat, stupid.
</joke>
 
I believe my attempt at stopping the joke at an early stage was warranted
 
It works better when everyone's drunk
 
Probably.
 
i feel that i raised this concern when the battlefront trailer was linked
 
AT-AT on Endor? What?
 
2:44 PM
There was an AT-AT on the moon of Endor.
 
@GodEmperorDune In this country, lorries have a voice which says "CAUTION! VEHICLE IS REVERSING" on repeat.
Sometimes a driver will leave one on the pavement with the engine on in reverse gear, and the voice just goes on and on and on.
 
@fredley sounds like time for the death penalty
 
@JasonBerkan Really? I can only remember the bipedal thing.
 
And now, in London at least, lots of them have started shouting "CAUTION! THIS VEHICLE IS TURNING LEFT"
to try and avoid cyclist deaths
 
I like to think a Giant metal robot-tank would have no trouble dealing with trees.
 
2:46 PM
@5pike It wasn't involved in any of the fighting scenes, but is is shown walking up to the landing platform when Luke is delivered to Vader.
 
@JasonBerkan Oh, interesting.
 
SciFi.SE to the rescue!

Q: Why was the AT-AT walker on Endor not used in the battle of Endor?

JaredWhy was the AT-AT walker in Return Of The Jedi not used in the Battle of Endor? Was there a Canon reason or just an out of universe reason? Or was the walker actually in the battle and just not shown on camera?

 
@fredley Those games are freaking horrifying and disgusting, man.
 
2:49 PM
@GodEmperorDune One hand, I would like to think troopers would be smart enough to not wedge their AT-AT between two trees that they could clearly go around.
On the other hand, are we talking prequel troopers or original trilogy troopers?
 
@5pike Who makes these things?
 
@Yuuki its not like an AT-AT could turn on a dime or that a forest is the best place to walk to avoid clumps of trees
 
@GodEmperorDune Yet they authorized the use of speeder bikes in a dense forest.
 
@GodEmperorDune Or you could just shoot down the trees with your laserface...
 
@fredley No clue, but there are freaking tons of those. My suspicion is that they are just templates, which you can buy and insert your own assets.
 
2:50 PM
@Yuuki and probably set the entire forest on fire
 
A bit of an aside - I got to walk through Endor once on vacation. It was very cool.
 
@JasonBerkan sequoia national parK?
 
@5pike weird
 
Wookiess don't live on Endor!
 
@fredley Totally.
 
user15026
2:51 PM
@fredley there is a group of gaming companies that make those weird games for just about every popular kids thing. So I feel like there might be some sort of generator or something because I have seen ton and tons and tons in the Play Store. (just scroll through the top new free games in the Play Store and you'll see them)
 
@GodEmperorDune Which would mostly be a problem for the Ewoks, not the troopers.
 
@GodEmperorDune Can't remember the name. It's in northern California, right by the border.
 
Who are sitting a giant fireproof tank.
 
The Chewbacca defense is the name given to a legal strategy in which the aim of the argument seems to be to deliberately confuse the jury rather than actually refute the case of the other side. The concept's name comes from episode 27 of the cartoon series South Park, "Chef Aid", which premiered on October 7, 1998. This episode satirised attorney Johnnie Cochran's closing argument defending O. J. Simpson in his murder trial. The term has since been commonly used in describing legal cases, especially criminal ones. The concept of disguising a flaw in one's argument by presenting large amounts of...
 
@AshleyNunn ugch, I think I'll pass
 
2:52 PM
 
@JasonBerkan That would be Sequoia National Park, yes.
 
@Yuuki would make it hard to conceal a secret shield generator base if its the only thing standing in the middle of a forest fire
 
@fredley You better. Some of them are very vile and graphic. Like, there's one where you make bone-surgery, to make the person larger...
 
user15026
@fredley it's kinda ridiculously horrifying because you know there are kids who are like begging to use an ipad or whatever to play this stuff.
 
@GodEmperorDune Don't need to conceal it when all the assailants are dead because of fire.
 
user15026
2:53 PM
It's like Cooking Mama: Horrifying Surgery Edition
 
As the wise @kalina once said or at least paraphrased: "Fire solves all problems."
 
@Yuuki they weren't trying to conceal it from the ewoks, but to conceal it from the rebels
 
@AshleyNunn Does this stuff even get through on iOS? Given the amount of time they spend rejecting apps I've made for spurious reasons, I'd hope there is some benefit.
 
@Yuuki Jedediah Smith park, according to my blog entry.
 
@GodEmperorDune Rebels burn just as easily as Ewoks, considering they don't have fireproof armor or tanks.
 
FAE
2:54 PM
@AshleyNunn oh god, those games. They are seriously disturbing
 
@fredley hahahahaha no.
 
user15026
I dunno, I lack a iDevice to see. I know theyre rampant on Android, though. Despite the fact that Google apparently human checks app now, they just keep coming.
 
I'm pretty sure that those games are in a "make money quick" scheme.
 
user15026
@fae I played the brain surgery one for like five seconds online once. I can tell you they never pulled a tiara or a high heeled shoe out of my skull. Inaccurate brain surgery is Inaccurate.
 
2:57 PM
@AshleyNunn Wow, never would have guessed.
 
user15026
@5pike I have no idea, because most of them are free, with no observable mention of IAP stuff. So I am assuming they must be chock full of ads.
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Like, I'm not a squeamish person or anything, but like you said, it's so easy for parents to miss that these are going to possibly give their kids nightmares because of the way they market
 
@AshleyNunn aah, but your operation was to put things in your skull. How do you know there aren't any tiaras in your head?
 
user15026
@KevinvanderVelden I've seen the CT images. Just brain meat and tubing, no tiaras.
 
@FAE Parenting pro-tip: turn off the installation, deletion and IAP options on your device before giving it to your kids.
 
2:58 PM
@AshleyNunn I think they are. It really fits the MO of those schemes - buy a cheap templated something, slap some adds on it, release it and hope you get some money.
 
user15026
Yeah there has to be something like that.
 
@AshleyNunn it could have been photoshopped!
Just think: One day there will be a need for super heroes and the tiara will activate (with probably magical girl cutscenes) and you'll get a super hug-gun!
 
user15026
@KevinvanderVelden okay, if that is an option, I will take that option.
 
@Yuuki "wise @kalina" may be a stretch hides
I'm going to get destroyed in like 2 weeks for that I know it
 
Or at least set on fire.
 
Yup
Same thing really
 
Fire does tend to be destructive
Hmmm fire
 
user15026
@frank do you have your cheeseburger soup recipe handy? I might make it today.
 
@GnomeSlice awesome
 
3:21 PM
Yeeee
 
user15026
@frank never mind I found it in the transcript
 
> Patents. They're like legally binding dibs.
 
Gretina is great
 
3:27 PM
This is some heated movie night voting going on
 
@Ktash I'm mostly surprised my suggestion is even positive. I thought it'd be downvoted to oblivion almost immediately
 
Why is every person in the buyers list for SimGretina's albums somebody with a pony avatar
 
@GnomeSlice he did a lot of brony music iirc
 
'brony music'
What is that
 
exactly what it sounds like
 
3:30 PM
So, just regular music with 'brony' tag?
 
music with pony soundbytes thrown in
 
I don't hear any of that in this
 
or remixes of the songs that played in the show
 
...
 
3:32 PM
@Rapitor Eugh
Not a fan of those vocals
 
racist barn
but yeah, thats brony music
 
So literally just music of any genre with a pony picture and voices from the show
 
pretty much
 
I wondered why this was tagged with 'pony'
 
Without listening to it, that's Sunset Shimmer's cutie mark
 
3:35 PM
I have no idea what that means.
 
@GnomeSlice The butt tattoo of the villain from the first MLP movie
 
what, the cover art?
Wow
Well I mean it's super solid trance either way
I paid a buck 50 for it
 
@Yuuki Are they still based on books anymore or did they run out of books after the first one or two?
 
@Ktash I don't think this one's based on a book.
Although I'm pretty sure Crichton's written about genetic engineering at some point.
 
> best waifu
ಠ_ಠ
 
3:37 PM
Well I mean, technically the first one included some genetic engineering because they used frog DNA or whatever, but yeah that makes sense
 
user15026
@ktash omg you suggested Boxtrolls. That was such a good movie.
 
@AshleyNunn I haven't seen it
Which is why I suggested it :)
 
user15026
@ktash it is so cute and so good and yes.
 
This voting is hilarious though. So much up and down lol
 
@Ktash isn't that common?
 
3:39 PM
YOU SEE @YUUKI! ALL THIS MOVIE NIGHT VOTING IS TEARING US APART!
 
people upvote what they want to see and downvote what they dont
 
:p
 
This is wht @Yuuki wanted all along
 
To have The Bridge destroy each other over why they downvoted The Iron Giant?
 
(maniacal laughter)
 
3:40 PM
@Rapitor Hasn't been this much in the past. There was a bit of up and down, but not to this degree. Everything is hovering around 1 and there isn't anything that's even getting close to pulling ahead (at least not before it gets knocked back down)
 
@Unionhawk I imagine the reason why most of the Iron Giant downvotes is because they've already seen it.
If nothing gets above 3-5 within the week, I might suggest something better than Snowpiercer.
 
user15026
Yeah, I suspect that a lot of it is people have seen the suggested stuff
 
@Yuuki From what I've heard, that shouldn't be hard
 
user15026
3:41 PM
That's what I get for suggesting a movie that is older than I am. :p
 
many of the movies on there are classics that if you havent seen you need to go watch immediately not wait for an event to do so.
 
user15026
Yeah, true.
 
Dark Crystal, iron Giant, Princess Bride.
 
Sure
But why not both?
Because oh god I can't watch the same film more than once?
 
@Rapitor Also one of the reasons I suggested BoxTrolls. Seems to fit with the stuff we've watched so far and is fairly new
 
3:43 PM
I had one in mind last night but I've forgotten it upon waking up.
 
@Unionhawk I know people who refuse to watch a movie more than once and it baffles me
 
@Yuuki Goddammit @Yuuki you're fired
 
@Rapitor Some old stuff there. Someone should suggest The Last Starfighter, since apparently only @Sterno and I have seen it.
 
@Ktash Those people... would never fully understand Inception. And about half a dozen other films.
 
@JasonBerkan I have no idea what that is.
 
3:44 PM
I don't really watch movies multiple times unless I really enjoy it.
 
@Ktash Those people are weird.
 
@JasonBerkan Is that a movie that is older than everyone but you two?
 
@Wipqozn Kid wins a video game that turns out to be a recruitment tool for star pilots. Saves the galaxy.
 
@JasonBerkan Sounds very 80s
 
@Unionhawk well, imo Inception isn't that crazy, but yes, I agree. They miss out on a lot of things in movies, and don't care when I point this out to them
 
3:45 PM
@Wipqozn 84, so, indeed
 
@Wipqozn It is! There is a Walkman in it.
 
what about Dark Star
 
user15026
@unionhawk I rarely watch things more than once. I like knowing stuff, though. I tend to research stuff I like.
 
has anybody else seen that
 
@JasonBerkan I can already picture exactly what everything in the movie looks like.
 
3:45 PM
We'd have to throw War Games into the pile if we're going with that sort of thing :P
 
@Wipqozn It was one of the earliest movies with CGI.
 
DO YOU WANT TO PLAY A GAME?

Q: How to use use nbt bug in minecraft server 1.8.1

lucai know that there is a way to get book whit /tellraw or similar command without using command block, using a bug (fixed in 1.8.4). I know it for sure because they did it on a server that i admin. can someone explain me how to do it? thanks.

 
John Carpenter's first movie
 
@StackExchange HELLO? @LAZERS? CAN YOU HEAR US
ARE YOU OKAY?
 
user15026
3:46 PM
I haven't seen War Games or The Last Star fighter or anything of that ilk.
 
He's not responsive! Oh no!
 
@StackExchange this is problematic
 
War Games is good for what it is. But it's sort of a cult movie at this point more than anything
 
It's about a bug that allows people to get access rights on a server
 
@JasonBerkan have you seen Dark Star
you're old right
 
3:47 PM
Without permissions
 
user15026
@unionhawk I think someone needs to reset the feed to be Lazers again because something got broken yesterday and is now fixed but Lazers lost his awesome. If I wasn't on my phone, and knew what I was doing, I'd poke it.
 
I mean, I love it, but it's like Hackers. You watch it partially just to laugh at things
 
@GnomeSlice LOL. That's like asking me if I know Jim from Canada.
 
who's Jim from Canada
 
Someone call 911 @badp! @Lazers needs an ambulance!
 
3:48 PM
But no, I have not seen Dark Star.
 
@GnomeSlice thatsthejoke.jpg
 
@KevinvanderVelden Good to know, VTC
 
I find old science fiction fairly unwatcheable.
 
@KevinvanderVelden Problematic might be an understatement.
 
3:49 PM
Dark Star is really weird
 
@Ktash Hackers is hilarious
 
it's all about totally pointless interactions between them
 
Oh right, that might be the bug involved in a previous thing
 
@Unionhawk No, don't call an ambulance, ask Health.SE!
 
@Arperum well the thing he actually asked wasn't about /op-ing yourself, but about a harmless thing. However that's just a change in textaway
 
3:50 PM
@fredley No fuck you
 
and shit like there's a smart bomb in the bay that is self aware and every now and then they have to go down and talk to it to convince it not to blow up
 
For instance, I've seen Zardoz. It is awful.
 
@Unionhawk yeah, that's why I know about it =p
 
(inb4 ban)
 
@Rapitor Hackers is fantastic. And the more technical you are, the funnier it is
 
3:51 PM
@Unionhawk :(
 
@Unionhawk I'm really tempted to star that, but then you'll probably be suspended.
Also, I need to agree with @Unionhawk.... asking Health.SE is dumb. Lifehacks.SE would be a better source.
 
Probs
 
my dad told me about dark star
 
we finally watched it a while ago and he said it wasn't as good as he remembered
it was really weird
they have this alien that is literally a beach ball
and they all hate going down to feed it
they're like i dont want to feed the alien it's your turn
 
3:53 PM
@GnomeSlice My stock response to weird 70s stuff is that there were a lot of drugs involved.
 
yeah probably
 
But those kind of movies are why the movie studios told George Lucas that Star Wars wouldn't amount to anything. No money in SciFi.
 
lol
 
@KevinvanderVelden why should it closed? (can't view it anymore)
 
user15026
@ktash I have seen Hackers a lot, it is hilarious. (My ex would put it on when she was in a serious coding mood)
 
user15026
3:55 PM
I like it because it is just so...wrong.
 
@Serverfrog it's about a technique that can be used (with minor changes) to get operator access on a minecraft server
 
FAE
I've never gotten around to seeing Hackers
 
@KevinvanderVelden yhea and? its a bug with a feature ;)
 
Also my ping sounds are back. Go away ping sounds
 
has anybody seen that shia labeouf thing
 
3:56 PM
ok, he could simply google it... but hey
 
uhh
eagle eye
that movie was actually dope as fuck
 
@Serverfrog and taking over servers is not something we want to help with?
 
@Unionhawk You mean like you hear pings again?
 
lmfao or not
> Critics Consensus: Eagle Eye is a preposterously plotted thriller that borrows heavily from other superior films.
 
@KevinvanderVelden maybe he just want to write a mod to fix it o.o
 
3:57 PM
@Serverfrog doubtful: The bug has already been fixed in the latest release, not everyone has upgraded to it.
 
we should watch The Wristcutters for movie night but it's pretty weird.
 
Besides: If you're capable of writing a mod to fix it you are capable of researching it
 
@KevinvanderVelden so you imply that when bugs are fixed. and some guys are not upgrading, its forbidden to talk about it?
 
@GnomeSlice well, the suggestion list is starred (and pinned!)
 
3:58 PM
like the german goverment use Windows XP and we shouldn't talk about windows xp bugs ?
 
Wristcutters: A Love Story is a 2006 American black comedy romance road movie written and directed by Goran Dukić, starring Patrick Fugit, Shea Whigham, and Shannyn Sossamon. Its premise is set in a strange afterlife way-station that has been reserved for people who have committed suicide. It is based on Etgar Keret's short story "Kneller's Happy Campers". A graphic novel version was titled Pizzeria Kamikaze. The film was originally intended to be shot on super-16 color infrared film, which was produced specially by Kodak. The color-shifts inherent in using this kind of film were thought to enhance...
 
@GnomeSlice then we probably shouldn't see it =p
 
It's great though
 
user15026
@FAE Hackers is a ridiculous film. You should try it sometime.
 
@Serverfrog no... but, you know, let's not help people take over servers? Let's not make the internet a worse place
