@James you around?
 
12:20 AM
Terraria 1.3!
 
Do we have a Bridge server?
I could be tempted to play Terraria for the first time in years.
 
You can host your own games now, I think?
 
@PrivatePansy NPCs do things!
Banners do things!
It's great
 
Steam support is the worst...
 
12:25 AM
My bank account is in Singapore dollars. As far as I can remember, the exchange rate from Singapore dollars to Singapore dollars is 1:1
Also, Terraria's update is stuck at 100%
 
> Imgur is over capacity
 
lol
reddit exploded, imgur too
damn guys, y u not rdy for leap second
 
@djsmiley2k Eh, both work fine for me
 
USA USA
 
@djsmiley2k Was wondering if that was just me.
@Unionhawk We beat Germany?
 
12:30 AM
Not yet
 
Score?
 
It's 1-0 after a successful penalty
 
Whoo!
 
71'
 
I tried to play Terraria a few years ago and couldn’t figure out how to build a door and never tried it again.
 
12:32 AM
Y'know, I've seen that all over campus and have no clue what it means.
 
Who wot
 
71'
I have no idea what that means.
Other than "71 feet".
 
In this case, 71st minute of the game, the clock counts up to 90
So, 19 plus some minutes to play
The some determined by the referee based on about how long play was stopped in a half
 
Castle season 7, complete!
Also, legs of current kit, all cut out.
Onto the waist!
 
MAKE THAT 2-0
YUS
CLOSE IT OUT
 
12:48 AM
Sigh...
Right as I go to post my Thaumcraft mage tower, Reddit goes down
 
Heh
 
@Frank I really need to get caught up on Castle
I used to watch it religiously, but once I moved out of my parents' house, I fell behind
 
3 MINUTES
 
@SaintWacko It makes for excellent sound filler while working on models.
 
And it broke again
Grrr
> our cdn was unable to reach our servers
 
12:54 AM
AND WE'RE GOING TO THE FINAL
YEE
 
Who?
What?
 
USA advances to the final against England or Japan in the women's world cup
 
redditstatus is not very useful

@SaintWacko I was really behind but I caught up recently. Such a good show

It clearly is not

Q: Always aggressive guards in flotsam - witcher 2

Timelord64So I'm not sure if I have encountered a bug or if I am just doing something wrong.. I broke up the hanging and rescued Dandelion in flotsam by using my hex and beating the two guards in a fist fight. After, all the guards are automatically aggressive towards me. I've had particular difficulty in...

 
@AshleyNunn LadyWacko wants to start watching it, so I'm going to start at the beginning with her

@SaintWacko Fun :D

Q: How to prevent fear of fireworks in dogs?

MoosemanMany dogs are afraid of the sound of fireworks. They panic, often barking and sometimes becoming aggressive. One could sedate the dog before July 4th, but that's not the best for the dog. What other options do I have?

oh man, they actually migrated it
 
user15026
Yeah, i saw that went to Pets, where it belonged (and I think is a dupe)
 
user15026
Yeah, it's a dupe
 
12:59 AM
Man, I can't decide what to read next
This is terrible
I blame @AshleyNunn. Also, @Fluttershy.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn What are your options?
 
If you haven't read the Discworld books, you should read those
And the Honor Harrington books
And Heinlein's books
 
@AshleyNunn The Farseer Trilogy or The Powder Mage trilogy
 
And Asimov's. And Niven's
 
I can second most of those suggestions
 
user15026
1:03 AM
@Wipqozn I vote Farseer mostly because I personally want to read it a lot
 
no no gujys, you're doing it wrong
 
user15026
and likely will try it after I finish Player of Games for my bookclub
 
I'm deciding between two series
 
ARRRRRGHHH
 
I'm not adding more to it

Q: How can I recover my clash of clans account?

user117142I've been playing Clash of Clans perfectly fine up until as recent as last night, when I opened my account it had just started all over again, all my progress was gone. I cant sign in with the Google account. I was using a blue-stacks on my computer (Windows 7 PC). How can I recover my account?...

 
I'M SUBMITTING SO MUCH BECAUSE YOU'RE BROKEN AND WON'T ACTUALLY POST IT, REDDIT
 
user15026
@Wipqozn Hey, I tried to help :)
 
@AshleyNunn You ARE helping
everyone else is useless
EVERYONE
@murgatroid99 might not be, if one of his "most" only included one of my books
I know both are going to be fantastic, but just can't decide what I want to read first
 
@Wipqozn No, I don't know either of the series you mentioned
I was talking about Discworld, Asimov's books, and the Honor Harrington series (which I am now working my way through the supplemental material)
 
user15026
1:08 AM
@Wipqozn Listen to me, I am wise ni the ways of books ;)
 
I am leaning more towards farseer
 
WE ARE THE BRIDGE WHO SAYS NI
 
Powder has just been futher up the list, and I'd like to tead it... but I just read some really, really high praise of robin hobbs characters so it jumped farseer up really high
 
I'm not sorry
 
user15026
@Wipqozn Yes, good, listen to meeeeee
 
user15026
1:10 AM
(mostly because then I can read them when I am done Player of Games and then I can poke you about reading stuff again :P)
 
I wonder what @Unionhawk would suggest.
 
Pass
:p
I defer my decision to @Wipqozn
 
You're the worst
I honestly have no idea
I'll sleep on it
DECISION DELAYED
 
Happy to be of service
 
user15026
Perhaps not literally, books aren't comfy
 
1:13 AM
@Wipqozn Have you read The Martian?
 
I think... I'll wind up doing powder mage...
but in 10 minutes Imight change my mind
@MBraedley noooooo. no new suggestions.
 
user15026
@MBraedley I gotta read that at some point.
 
Also, Venus and Jupiter pics incoming. As soon as I get them off my camera.
 
@Wipqozn You didn't say anything about books already in your collection...
 
1:14 AM
@MBraedley I did actually. I just said ti too far afterwards.
but I'll add that book to my list
goodreads list that is
My problem is never one of not enough books,but too many books
 
@AshleyNunn It's really good. I've listened to the audiobook twice, and bought the ebook for reading over vacation.
 
I blame Goodreads./
Okay I'm going to bed
 
@Wipqozn Holiday tomorrow
 
I hope i've made a decision by the time my ereader shuts down and it's working tomorrow
 
Stay up
 
1:16 AM
@MBraedley It's after 10!
I'm not some crazy young whipper snapper
 
@Wipqozn It's not even 11
 
@MBraedley But it's after 10
In all seriosness, I tend to wake up early even if I don't work, so I just try to get to bed by 10 every night
 
@Wipqozn You need a job where you can waltz in at 9AM
 
@MBraedley I already have such a job
I just choose to come in a t 7
 
Then why do you get up so early?
 
1:18 AM
I could come in at 10 if I wanted to
@MBraedley because A) No traffic and B) I get off at 3
it's great
 
BUT YOU'RE GOING TO MISS THE PICTURES!
 
@MBraedley How much longer?
 
@Wipqozn A couple minutes for a quick glimpse
 
Well I can wait a few minutes
I need to refill my water before bed anyways
 
I took 134 pics tonight, so I need to find a good one

Q: I have an NPC named maitake and I just got into hardmode and the message keeps popping up but she won't move in there is housing though

RichyIt's name is maitake I'm in pocket and she won't move in. I have housing and I don't get why she won't move in I am not having a problem with other NPC's I got a pirate to move in. How do I fix it? P.S. It's in terraria

 
You can even see some of the Galilean moons!
 
Sigh...
Reddit is super broken
 
@MBraedley nice picture
 
@Wipqozn I haven't stacked it yet to reduce the ISO noise and improve detail
 
WEll, I'm now going to bed

Q: Is the castle the only place to find money?

Ashley NunnI am trying to save up enough money for the ice wand, and I keep getting told to look in the castle. I know I can find cards and heart pieces other places, so can I find money other places too, or is the castle the only place where there is money to be found?

 
@Lazers2.0 I recall money only dropping from the chests in the castle, but I can't confirm it for sure
 
is ittle dew good?
 
1:46 AM
@Chippies How much is it?
 
We’ve resolved the connectivity issues some of you have seen. We ran into a LACP bug on the new hardware which broke some machine’s connect.
 
@Yuuki I'm using pirated version at the moment, but I believe it's $9.99/mo for the Lightroom + Photoshop bundle
 
@GnomeSlice Future -> present is a pretty immediate change.
 
Well they were calling it GameJoltNext while the update was in development
It's just gone live.
So now it's the current, not the next.
 
1:59 AM
... I thought that was a great joke.
;_;
 
user15026
@Aequitas I really like it
 
@Yuuki I didn't (don't) get it, sorry.

@GnomeSlice seems like a take on the PC Decrapifier
Hm, not sure if that's the original one, don't recall it ever having a paid option
 
user15026
@Yuuki Suddenly it all makes sense
 
@Chippies Heh
 
2:13 AM
It is in my bookmarks, so maybe they added the paid option, or maybe the trial version is just fine

Q: Minecraft Forge versions except 1.7.10 will not load

user117150I can run all VANILLA Minecraft versions, however when I try to run forge versions besides forge 1.7.10, the launcher "gives up". No crash, no message. I do not know why only Forge 1.7.10 works while all others don't. Redownloading minecraft and clearing the .minecraft folder did nothing.

 
3:00 AM
@RedRiderX You only YOLO once.
 
true dat
 
Bah, non of the tools I've found want to automatically stack the images I took tonight, because there was some other stuff I should have done and didn't know about, and they can't seem to register the photos properly because there's only Venus and Jupiter (and 2-3 of Jupiter's moons) in them.
 
@MBraedley are you stacking stars?
 
 
StarStaX is what I've read the cool people use and it's what I have used
I suppose you can stack anything with it, not just stars
 
3:11 AM
@Chippies Just Jupiter and Venus
 
@MBraedley you could just use photoshop, since it sounds like you only have 2 images?
but StarStaX would be better for automated stacking
 
@Chippies No, I've got multiple images, and no photoshop
@Chippies I'm trying to do image registration, which StarStaX doesn't seem to do.
 
I don't know what you mean by that
 
 
Image registration is the process of transforming different sets of data into one coordinate system. Data may be multiple photographs, data from different sensors, times, depths, or viewpoints. It is used in computer vision, medical imaging, biological imaging and brain mapping, military automatic target recognition, and compiling and analyzing images and data from satellites. Registration is necessary in order to be able to compare or integrate the data obtained from these different measurements. == Algorithm classification == === Intensity-based vs feature-based === Image registration or image...
This, I guess?
 
3:19 AM
Yes, although that's not necessarily the best description.
 
Yeah, that's beyond my expertise. StarStaX just stacks multiple images into one
I wouldn't even know where to begin with the image registration
 
I want to align multiple images of the same scene and combine them, which increases the effective resolution and decreases the noise.
Because I have a tonne of ISO noise, which is effectively random, that I want to get rid of.
But here's a shot of the moon, since I'm going to bed.
@Wipqozn
No stacking, but you can still make out some of Jupiter's moons.
 
@MBraedley you use dark frame for that, afaik
 
@Chippies Yes, which I didn't take
 
ISO noise is not exactly random
 
3:24 AM
@Chippies It's pretty random
 
@MBraedley you can do it now, I don't think it makes a difference
you take the dark frame with your lens cap on in a dark place
with same settings as you had for the timelapse
 
 
@Chippies Again, not a timelapse, that's different.
 
I suppose it wouldn't work if you did the dark frame now, since the noise changes with temperature and everything

how could you??
@Ktash there was a time when I wore the mod badge with pride...now it is just a reminder of those long gone glory days.
but maybe from the ashes a new wave of moderator abuse shall rise
new questions shall be closed, more tags wiped from the books
Look at the peace the moderator abuse has brought upon us. Look at it!

Except when they actually unlock something (like in payday 2).

Oh wow, hopefully everyone made it out in one piece.
 
@TimStone Three people got lightly wounded, so nothing bad. I assume from the original accident.
 
That's good then. As long as no one is seriously injured we can a) be happy for that, and b) make a @badp Euro Truck Simulator joke
 
So it's like a normal cruise except the quick-spreading disease is expected in advance.
 
@TimStone Police is giving away water to drivers who are waiting to get past there because hot day though.
@fredley I think the creative process for coming up with that cruise idea was "Oh, it works for metalheads, why not for zombies?"
 
@Arperum metalheads ~== zombies
 
@fredley Pretty active zombies though. And if you look at the beer consumption: probably regularly drunk zombies.
