Q: Minecraft on ARM Linux? (Samsung Chromebook)

EginorI'm not sure if this is the right place to put this type of question, but its a start. So I've been trying for over a week to get Minecraft to run on an install of Ubuntu on a Samsung Chromebook, which has ARM architecture. I've been following this: http://forum.lwjgl.org/index.php?topic=5494.0 ...

 
@StrixVaria See, I don't think the question itself is bad. But I do think the intent of the asker might be a bit off, as I think they are looking for a discussion rather than an answer (at least that was my impression given the comments)

Q: Frame skips in Jetpack Joyride?

GuyI have been playing Jetpack Joyride for a while on my iPod, but suddenly one day it started freezing on frames. I have timed it, and it happens on every other second, the game will freeze for a beat and then continue on normally (only for to freeze again in two seconds). You can see how this woul...

 
I don't like the asker. I explained things pretty clearly in comments and he said "ya but batman does the impossible so he could do it"
 
Yeah, which is why I think he's looking for more of a discussion. Usually people looking for an answer aren't quite as defensive to possibilities. Especially ones that evidence points to being correct
 
12:30 AM
I'm surprised a question about lore/developer intent/stuff that has no way of being proved is still open
 
user15026
Not anymore.... :P
 
I guess @Frank is on vacation
@AshleyNunn I VTC'd it like, a minute ago, it only had one vote before me
 
user15026
Yeah, I know. But really, it's not something we can answer, so I finished the job.
 
and (some of) you guys had been discussing it for the whole episode of Dr. House that I managed to watch :P
 
user15026
It's very much "why did they do the story this way"
 
12:31 AM
@AshleyNunn pretty much, which is why I was surprised it wasn't closed earlier :)
 
user15026
I got distracted with copious amounts of pupusas and horchata and an episode of DS9
 
I saw an xbox360 at eb games for 60$, I wonder if it's worth getting it, considering I am not spending any money on it after the initial price
probably not, I can only think of one game I'd actually know I'd want to play on it...
 
Mine just sits in my room gathering dust. I don't play it at all anymore, and I have my PS3 for netflix and such
 
@AshleyNunn Honestly, I think it has a clear and well defined answer... but the author was presented with it twice and doesn't want it. So closing was probably the best option.
 
@Chippies that's...insanely cheap, there must be a catch (ie. 500MB Hard Drive or have to trade in 3 games)
 
12:35 AM
@Memor-X refurbished I believe
it's certainly been used
 
user15026
I feel like a) any answer that explains it would be argued and b) we can't say for sure why the story people wrote this one the way they did
 
not to mention, no one really cares about buying them anymore, I would assume
 
Oh wow there's a Humble Nintendo Bundle
 
@originaluser I don't think there is a clear and defined answer, either in-game or as a quote from the developer. Anything you say could be argued for and against
 
@AshleyNunn Well, it's one of the core dynamics between these two characters. Either way, I don't disagree with the resolution.
 
user15026
12:37 AM
@originaluser Okay, because it kinda feels like you do.
 
user15026
Which is fair, I am just confused.
 
Nah, I don't think the question itself was bad I guess. I think it's probably better suited to a different SE though
 
@originaluser He didn't do it because he didn't want to kill Joker? He's Batman, couldn't he catch him without killing him? Was it too risky?
we don't know what was going on in the mind of batman or the story writer
 
Eh, I guess this is getting repetitive so I'll just drop it :P I think you guys have made good points though
 
I completely understand that Batman doesn't want to kill Joker, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it is why he just stood there and did nothing at all
 
user15026
12:40 AM
It's one of those things - in all likelihood, the answer is "because the devs/writers didn't want to end it like that"
 
"Because that's not how the story ends"
"Because Batman is cooler than that"
"Because fuck you that's why"
Any of those answers could be considered correct.
 
I think a better solution would have been to either make the scene clearer or just... not include it
 
^All perfectly valid answers
 
Batman has ethics. And morals. The joker wants to prove he doesn't. That's like his one goal.
 
@originaluser or just... play the game and don't question silly game dev decisions that don't really matter :P
 
12:41 AM
Is to make Batman kill someone
And it almost worked
 
user15026
@originaluser I think people need to stop expecting a reason for everything in a video game
 
Well, his goal was to prove that everyone would go there, normal people, criminals, and batman too
 
@Chippies But if I'm not wasting time on silly things that don't matter... what will I do with my life? Something productive?
 
@originaluser What? Pro-duc-what? That word is not part of my vocabulary
 
I expect only reason and rationality in my games. goes off to play Katamari Damacy
 
12:43 AM
lets just go back to watching images of cats and kittens on imgur, at least we can all agree that they're cute and there's nothing to argue about
 
user15026
@Ktash Excellent choice, by that metric :P
 
I love Katamari. Shame they haven't really been able to keep up the charm
I still like the recent ones but... it's just not the same
 
@originaluser there hasn't been a new one
 
There was one for the vita but like most of the other ones it was just a lot of reused levels
 
@Unionhawk Obviously leaving all those poor criminals on the edge of death for the rest of their lives is better than actually killing them! Prolong their suffering!
 
12:44 AM
Damacy and We Love Katamari are amazing, though
 
I mainly played katamari for the music.
it's fantastically weird
 
user15026
I loved the Katamari games
 
is there an Arqade question about why Batman is so brutal when fighting thugs, often breaking their bones and even electrocuting them?
 
12:46 AM
The music is one thing they did right about the more recent Katamari games. Lots of tracks and some quality remixes
 
Whenever I have batman questions, I turn to collegehumor batman
 
@Ktash :D
 
What would that idiot do?
 
user15026
@Ktash Living room dance party!
 
What to Batman and Katamari have in common?
They both love BaNaNa-NaNa-NaNa-Nana's
 
12:49 AM
I think Katamari would work really well with WiiU
 
user15026
@Ktash facedesk
 
@Ktash you're terrible and you should feel bad
 
You know you loved it
 
user15026
@Ktash Maaaaybe
 
@Chippies Nah. Just busy with other stuff.
Making a light up robot is tough. Especially when you're hacking and repurposing things.
On the plus side, I know how to solder better now

Can you guys send some upboats now that it's not incorrect:

A: Is it possible to make minecarts kill someone if it comes in contact with a player?

ModDLRun this on a clock: /execute @e[type=MinecartRideable] ~ ~ ~ kill @p[r=1]

It was /execute ... kill @p, which would kill the nearest player for every minecart, but now it specifies a radius

Q: How does Profile Rank and profile rank experience work in CS:GO?

Q: I cannot get a haircut

ErraticFoxI have both "Temerian Armor" and Bear & "Hair style set" installed and on. When I go to the Barber, it'll give me options for the beards, but the hair I only get "I've changed my mind". What gives? I've reinstalled it already. EDIT: I'm in the Barber shop in Velen in the city Oxenfurt.

 
Hmmm. Risky buying the Nintendo bundle
Technically speaking my eShop location is set to the US, but I don't know if this will work
 
@PrivatePansy Your background thing for some reason only picks up three out of five backgrounds for revolver360
Just fyi
 
2:02 AM
@PrivatePansy why wouldnt it work?
 
@Rapitor I'm not actually in the US
 
yeah, but is your region set to US?
 
The console region should be US (as opposed to EU and Japan)
The console location, I'm not sure
 
I don't think the console checks IP or anything like that
I'm sure there's a question about it on the main site somewhere
if not it's a good one to ask
 
2:13 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Cloud to Butt begs to differ
Though to be fair cloud butts is kind of 2010
 
Yeah, cloud to butt is not a qualified entrant.
 
I think Earthtongue is my new favourite play-before-bed title.
 
2:37 AM
So in case you were not aware they increased the overall difficulty curving of loud in Payday 2 a bit (cc @Yuuki)
As in, I did a Four Stores normal and it spawned a SWAT Turret
As in, assault is starting, and I just see this humvee roll up like "hey, sup" and I was just like "this does not look good for @Uni"
But it does feel like a whole new game, and for all the things that are weapons DLC, there are 2 other things that are "join our steam group!" community items
First impressions, just derping around with weapons and skills on four stores
Like the one skill that, when you die, you just gain like 6 seconds of 65% reduced movement speed and no need to reload (in a whole new tree) and you just go down at the end of that 6 seconds
I may continue to derp but ultimately I need to get things properly set up
 
Damn you KSP career mode for being too compelling! I should have been in bed nearly an hour ago!

I opened the door in a Finntroll hoodie. Too bad it wasn't open, because my tshirt has the old smoking metalcamp skull on it.
I don't give a damn about people having a religion, but don't fucking keep repeatedly shoving it in my face. That results in me building up a massive dislike for it.

Q: Does The Witcher 2 record your play time?

HeroEightThe question is in the title, thanks in advance.

 
The inane verboseness of these documents are driving me crazy. In a test document, you don't need 2 or three separate steps in order to select a menu option. Seriously, the guy that wrote these steps put every single mouse click in its own step. But at the other end of the spectrum, what you're actually doing in the steps isn't explained, so you don't know why you're doing something.
 
Selecting a menu item:
1) Pontificate thoroughly on the requirements of your current desired action.
2) Activate the neural pathways in your brain which connect to your skeletal muscles.
3) Utilize the electrical charge of your neurons and nerves to send an impulse along the aforementioned pathways.
4) Select the menu option.

Those are awful

It should be

Both of those things
THE INTERNET COMMANDS IT

@Chippies True, but you can have that with something that has a bit more ... taste
 
You're European, I'm pretty sure you're required by law to judge the U.S. at all times. Or does the law only specify judging North America?
 
@Yuuki It's region locked, so I heard.
 
I can't get past "Nindie" as a word

@Unionhawk That's what they called, I'm just the messenger.

And maybe Europe.
Never mind. Americas only including except Brazil.
 
1:33 PM
@Yuuki So... NA/JP? Oh. Just NA/SA?
Or just NA?
I'm confused
You're confusing
 
Apparently, Nintendo tried really hard to get it global but there was some issue with Humble Bundle's architecture or something.
 
@GnomeSlice I believe it's an episodic remake
 
@Unionhawk NA + SA - Brazil.
 
@originaluser YOU'RE AN EPISODIC REMAKE
@Yuuki WAIT YOU JUST SAID INCLUDING
MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND
 
@Yuuki It's like an equation

My hobby: making @Uni go allcaps.
 
Divide by America and you're left with N+S+(Brazil/America)
 
@originaluser No
 
@Jason_Lepine @seven5three Yep, it's only a @NintendoAmerica deal. Tried for months to make it global but we'll get there eventually!
 
You're left with (N+S+Brzil)/merica
 
@originaluser You can't divide by America when factoring, it's like multiplying by zero
 
1:38 PM
 
> public const string UNITED_STATES = "United States";
 
@Sconibulus But multiplying by zero is... I'm not sure what joke is being made here.
 
I've never understood the use of constants to this extent.
 
@Unionhawk If you need to use a hard-coded thing in more than 1 place, it makes sense to make it a constant if for no other reason than that the IDE knows that it's the same thing.
It might come in handy, maybe, so why not do it?
 
@Unionhawk magic numbers/strings are considered harmful
 
1:40 PM
It can auto-complete for you too!
 
public const int FOUR = 5
 
@Unionhawk It's easier to change things that need to be changed if they're all in one place rather than all over your code.
 
@Yuuki I imagine his point here is when you know for absolute certain that a thing will never change.
 
Ah.
I don't see a problem with it then, but it's better to reinforce good habits.
 
What if they rename the United States? Then you'll have egg on your face, uni
 
1:41 PM
I mean, if I'm to believe some news networks who will remain unnamed, we're about to become the American Imperial Republic or something

Q: What is the fastest horse in Mount and Blade Warband?

However, I don't like getting all bunched up: I want to be out in front making a huge spectacle of myself, not back in the pack. What is the absolute fastest horse ...

American Republican Socialist Emirates of Free American Conservative Equality?
Needs more American.
 
I think @Yuuki wins this one.
 
I thought my ASMR one was good :(
 
Nope. I was really looking for something along the lines of "ARSE"
Since it's a really funny word and I'm 14 apparently
 
Something something your ass-mar!
 
The new name should be able to be abbreviated to Murica
 
1:55 PM
The M can stand for Murica
 
No, the point is that the unnamed news network is concerned that we're getting away from Murica and going towards a more European way of doing things
Never mind
That part of the joke isn't important
Really, "ARSEFACE" is going to be the best we can do
And if there's not an act of congress that has the potential (but unused) acronym of "ARSE", there needs to be one.
 
Meritocratic United Republic of Intermingled Cultures of America?
I like ArseFace better though
