> After Zia commits suicide, he finds himself in an afterlife limbo much the same as life, just slightly worse. Here the color is dim, there are no stars, and no one can smile. This strange realm is populated by people who have committed suicide, such as Eugene, a Russian musician who lives with his mother, father, and brother – all suicide victims. Eugene kills himself on stage by pouring a beer he is drinking onto his electric guitar.

> Together they waste most of their afterlives in bars, until Zia learns from a friend, Brian, that his ex-girlfriend, Desiree, has also committed suicide. He and Eugene take to the road to find her, in Eugene's rundown car.

like his friend's car has a black hole under the seat, anything you drop in the car vanishes forever

Kevin van der Velden

@AshleyNunn I agree, but I don't know policy so I brought it to your attention (royal you)

@FAE that is why there are torrents =p

@Arperum I was on my phone anyway

So

The ping sound didn't go

TAKE THAT @Arperum

Kevin van der Velden

@Serverfrog you can't talk about torrents on the main site either

Unionhawk

Yeah no that's off-topic.

Kevin van der Velden

4:04 PM

If we were talking about it on here I'd be fine with discussing it cause it's an interesting technical thing

Serverfrog

@KevinvanderVelden soooo if the user could be in this channel he could talk about this bug ;) xD i know i stressing your nerves xD

Unionhawk

That's more bright-line off-topic than a security bug

Kevin van der Velden

@Serverfrog yeah if it was in chat a) less people would see it as chat's goal isn't to make the internet a better place by providing quality Q&A but to help a community, and b) we could gauge his intentions better and just talk about it from a technical point of view

Yes, chat is different than the main site.

i just try to understand that talking about fixed bugs is banned

but ok ok, i keep my mouth shut

user15026

It's not about the fact that it is a fixed bug, it's about someone asking for help to do a thing they should not have access to do.

Unionhawk

It's about the fact that is is a security bug.

Kevin van der Velden

@Serverfrog talking about fixed bugs isn't banned, it is off-topic. The difference in my use of the terms here is that banned means it's on-topic but you can't discuss it. While it's off-topic because the site isn't about security bugs

Unionhawk

Some servers have not updated. We are not going to help people use books to op themselves and deop the server owner.

Q: is ther a cheat to make my severely late sim..not late for wor?

I started a game yesterday (Sims4) and it began with one of my characters being severely late for work. Is there a cheat to combat this? I don't want him late as he's the only provider for the household. Any cheat code that will "unlate" my sim will help...without resetting him. Thank you 😄

@KevinvanderVelden so i could debbat it, that he could ask it on security.se? ;)

Kevin van der Velden

I'm all for responsible disclosure, heck there've been several discussions about the such topics in chat already!

Serverfrog

@Unionhawk i know, and i am a... little happy about it

Unionhawk

user15026

4:10 PM

@Serverfrog I wouldn't suggest asking about it there, no.

Kevin van der Velden

It'd still probably be off-topic on security.se as the site is (as I understand) more about defending and how security works than specific bugs and how to use them. But it's more on-topic then here

user15026

I feel like you are just trying to argue a thing for the sake of it

user15026

The point is, we don't take questions like that, and that isn't going to change. We might discuss it here, but not in a "here's how you screw with people" way.

Unionhawk

Yes.

We are not here to enable griefers.

user15026

@unionhawk griefers, that's the word I wanted.

Serverfrog

4:12 PM

I like bugs, and i like it when a company gets a very hard kick in the face for it when they are not fixing it for too long. And i hate it when users/serverowners/whatever are not updating there software/servers because they don't want to? but i see, its the wrong site etc. pp

Kevin van der Velden

Still, if people want to talk about it: It's another case of mojang being dumb. Who thought it would be a good idea to add commands in anything that uses JSON?

user15026

@Serverfrog liking bugs is fine, as is discussing them. Telling people on the main page how to screw up stuff incredibly badly for people? Nope. Not happening.

@Yuuki Global warming totes isn't real LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU

Serverfrog

and also, was he talking about the crashing bug or the book-bug ?

Yuuki

@KevinvanderVelden Well, the source is talking about how this is in large part due to Nestle bottling said water to sell to other places.

Kevin van der Velden

4:16 PM

@Serverfrog bug where you could edit the NBT data of a written book in the client

Serverfrog

@KevinvanderVelden ahh ok

Yuuki

Which may or may not be true, but the picture is pretty mind-blowing either way.

Kevin van der Velden

Which would enable you to use another bug with the JSON interpreter to execute arbitrary commands with the permission of any user reading the book (and hovering over/clicking on something)

It's great, especially when working with assembler

Yeah, regex doesn't crash Notepad++

It took a second or two, but it didn't crash.

I'm disappointed that this particular message I'm working with comes in at about 11.1Hz. Not even a nice round number like 11. I'm wondering if it's running off the GPS that outputs a pulse per second with a period of 1.001s.

Unionhawk

> To perform the credits warp, a glitch called "tongue glitch" is used. This causes Yoshi's tongue to stretch infinitely, eating up the game's memory. If manipulated correctly, the tongue glitch can cause the game to execute instructions from the memory addresses associated with sprite positions. This is great, because sprite positions can be changed. By positioning various sprites at subpixel perfect locations, a sequence of instructions is used to run the credits.

Goddamn

@Rapitor music.simplifyrecordings.com/album/vocal-bangers-volume-1

Jason Berkan

WTH is subpixel perfect?

Unionhawk

I have no idea

Jason Berkan

5:23 PM

The shown location is x, but the variable is x +/- some small amount?

John

@KevinvanderVelden true

Kevin van der Velden

Probably: The game uses a representation of positions that is more accurate than the game pixel size

So, the game is 2000 units wide but it's only shown as 1000 pixels

(And units are stored as an integer of some size, non floating point)

Unionhawk

It could be worse, it could be frame and pixel perfect stuff.

That game runs at 60 frames

Kevin van der Velden

TAKE THAT XBOX

Unionhawk

Although tongue glitch looks like a frame perfect thing.

I dunno, I'll have to listen to the commentary and have my mind blown

Jason Berkan

I dunno. As a programmer, some of these any % are interesting, but not much else. They are just programming in assembly, using the game as an input device.

@JasonBerkan It just showcases how useless any% tends to be as a speedrunning category.

any% will in pretty much every case have some rules associated with it, or be replaced by another category

ALTTP has any% no oob, no s&q, and no eg. (no out-of-bounds, no save and quit, and no exploration glitch). Pokemon Gen 1 has similar

Yoshi's Island has warpless, no tongue glitch, no null egg, etc

It's interesting to see where the game can be taken in terms of broken

murgatroid99

It encourages a different kind of creativity than normal speedruns, especially in breakable games

Unionhawk

Eventually though, it becomes a trivial or near-tas-only category with nowhere else to go.

But it's cool to see stuff that was originally dismissed as tas-only be executed in real time
