3:00 PM
So there's a Splatoon eSports tournament going on in Japan.
Prize pool's $1M.
 
Cool. I still haven't played Splatoon because I'm a jerk.
It sounds fun though, and I guess the free DLC is coming out soon or already out?
 
i've only played splatoon at a best buy demo station and i couldnt get through the tutorial because fuck motion controls
i still plan on getting it eventually. but this game season is already going to be busy enough with forza, halo, and fallout
 
Wait. 23 people said that The Big Bang Theory TV series is scifi
Huh!?
 
FAE
@Rapitor You can change that at least
 
@FAE yeah, but i couldn't during the tutoriqal segment, and that's all i really had time to try out
@PrivatePansy it does have a science advisor on staff
 
FAE
3:07 PM
@Rapitor Ah yeah, I don't think they let you there, which is dumb
 
Eh, I don't mind motion controls for handheld games but I still haven't really warmed to them for console games
 
@fae don't worry, take care.
 
It's good you can change them
 
@KevinvanderVelden are you okay with this being just the two of us? I'd understand if you'd rather not.
 
FAE
@badp Thanks, sorry I can't make it. :( Hopefully you'll get the job and we can meet up another time. :)
 
3:08 PM
@badp I'm fine with it
I was just talking with @FAE about how to contact you so we could find each other =p
 
@FAE it appears that I have ~
 
apparently nintendo claims most players keep the motion controls on, which i don't believe at all
 
FAE
@badp ! Congratulations!
 
@badp already confirmed? Nice!
 
I've just finally repositioned the sim tray in my tablet so I finally should have internet again
 
3:10 PM
@badp wanna hop on steam for a bit so we can exchange information on how to recognise each other? =p
 
FAE
@badp So are you gonna be moving here then? :o
 
@FAE he'll just commute by plane every day, new headcanon
 
FAE
@KevinvanderVelden I'm now picturing him doing this via Kerbal space plane for some reason
 
@FAE @BADP IS A KERBAL: DATA ACCEPTED
 
@KevinvanderVelden I'll be at the hotel in fifteen or so
 
3:19 PM
@badp aight :) Plenty of time
 
@Rapitor I dunno, I've heard a lot of talk that the motion controls are actually really good once you get used to them.
 
@FAE if I accept then I must, yes
 
FAE
@badp Awesome. Keep in touch and if you need help with stuff like moving in and/or fixing up a place (I'm good at interior painting), let me know.
 
@FAE did I tell you about the Blind Guardian concert in Utrecht later this year already?
 
FAE
@Arperum Agh, yeah, I saw it in my last.fm events thing. December right?
 
3:29 PM
hmmmmmm

@fredley We may need to call in @Frank-control
 
@Frank This is happening when you're here. I know the organisers, think it should be fun, and a good way to sight-see.
 
FAE
@Arperum Not sure if we'll be able to get tickets before it's sold out. It was a really expensive month this month. x_x

Q: Legendary Dwellers in the beginning of the game

dkieferI was wondering if it is possible to get a Legendary Dweller in one of the 4 "introductory" lunch boxes in the beginning of the game. I've restarted my vault about 50 times, maybe more, and have yet to get one.

 
3:40 PM
Chinese holding company Tencent reported in negotiations with Kojima
 
Tencent is massive
 
Bigger than 50 Cent?
 
twice as big
 
@Rapitor Yeah, I hadn't heard of them by name but they're significant shareholders in Activision-Blizzard, Epic, and others
Riot, too
 
Tencent does more than gaming as well.
Although they've been moving into gaming.
 
3:47 PM
So they're kind of like an anti-Konami?
 
But IIRC, their big thing was QQ, basically China's version of AOL Instant Messenger.
 
Well, as long as they don't somehow acquire the MGS rights and then force Kojima to develop MGS games for the rest of time, I'm fine.
I mean, I love MGS games, but Kojima deserves a break.
Guy has been trying to get out of MGS since 2
 
He needs to go direct a movie-movie.
 
pretty much if you are doing anything in china, Tencent probably is/was involved with it
@Yuuki he and del toro are still working together on a non-game
 
@Rapitor I'm excited for that. They're both cool dudes.
I liked Pacific Rim
 
3:51 PM
pacific rim show next year and pacific rim 2 in 2017!

Q: Multiple Strange Errors when Starting TF2 Dedicated Server

odixonBefore I ask this question, note that I am referring to a strange error in the console when starting my server, not a strange kill tracking weapon in Team Fortress 2! When I start my server, I get 2 strange sounding errors in the console. They both relate to, what I think is, missing textures. T...

 
I don't even know how they could make a Pacific Rim 2. The conflict was pretty conclusively ended.
 
@twobugs Prequel-sequel?
 
could be a prequal, could be more rifts
 
Also, I'm okay with Pacific Rim moving to a G Gundam sort of thing.
 
3:52 PM
I guess, but both of those feel kind of like copouts
@Yuuki I'm fine with that. Just as long as they don't go SD Gundam.
Flying spiders that can change direction in mid-air. NOPE.
 
STOP MOCKING ME, IRIS
 
4:10 PM
@Sterno It's okay, I mean, we all die in the first five turns. Sometimes. Maybe. I mean, if we're trying. Hard.
also, wow, stench is like 2 damage/turn?
I guess you got surrounded and that just happened to be the final tick
 
 
We are aware of the brief read-only banner and are looking into the trigger now.

Q: Where are my Fallout Shelter Screenshots saved?

aslumI took a screenshot, however I don't want to link FO Shelter to my social media... where are they screenshots saved for Android (bonus points if you want to answer for iOS too!)

 
@badp Pretty much
Oh man. Killed a by a starting area dog when berserk ran out

Q: Using critical error sound as the hit sound effect

thisI'm wondering if there is any known reason for using, what it seems to be a slightly modified version of the windows critical error sound effect, as the default sound effect when you damage an enemy in Quake 3 Arena? Since this classifies as a subjective question, here is my constructive explana...

 
Fire breathing minotaurs are jerks
 
@Yuuki That's me driving the car
 
Hrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm how do I not make this O(n^2)
HRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
 
@Unionhawk You could always go with the method of either it succeeds in O(1) time or it destroys the universe!

Q: New Surface Outpost Contract - add on to an existing base?

Tim S.So I currently have a surface outpost on both Mun and Minmus, but I've now received two more contracts to do the same thing -- one outpost on each moon. Instead of creating a whole new outpost, is it possible to extend the existing base, so that the total requirements of the new contract are met,...

 
@Unionhawk function() { return otherFunction(); }
Clearly O(1) time.
Also, what are you trying to making not O(n^2) time?
 
function() { return function(); }
go

Don't mess with Dumbledore.
 
@blartmemes Yeah you are just getting ignored :)

Folding Fang FTW!
Afternoon Stroll (finally) defeated!
 
5:20 PM
VICTORY
@Sterno Folding Fang is the best thing. I only wish I had it this run because The World Is Way Too Strong is really, really, really annoying without it.
 
@GraceNote My winning score was only slightly less than that by about 1950 points!
What's the "keep fighting for a whole week" campaign mode?
 
Okay, so daily campaigns only have their existence (and by extension, the consistent layout of regions and buildings) for the day they're featured.
The weekly campaign meanwhile, has the same features for a whole week.

Q: Fallout Shelter no longer seems to be dropping legendary items in the wasteland?

Orion AdrianAfter installing the first patch, followers sent to the wasteland have yet to return any legendary (yellow) items. Previously my followers would return 1-3 items on each run. Can anyone else confirm this behavior, or better yet explain what I need to do to get my explorers finding legendary ite...

 
Ah.
 
5:25 PM
@GraceNote Even worse, there's no sexy maid pic
 
@twobugs heh
 
It slightly makes me sad that since the world choice doesn't influence Heroics Level, it's not featured on the results screen in any fashion.
 
@GraceNote How?
 
@Sterno It should be one of the daily campaigns today
 
5:29 PM
Huh, that's wonk
You have the same ally mission that I do but the other two don't match up
Well, let me see my page and how it looks for names too
 
Just ran "Update Campaign Data" and no change.
That's okay though. I barely squeaked by on Afternoon Stroll
 
Pfff I looked at who else cleared the dimension and there's a clear at 104km on Stroll and a 432km clear on Walk and then WHAM 1500 on Odyssey
Maybe it's because I'm on the Playism version compared to you on Steam
 
How do you check who cleared a dimension?
Ah, found it
 
North Carolina (Damnit @spugsley)
 
Dammit @OrigamiRobot
 
5:43 PM
The second paragraph is the interesting part of that article though.
 
Dammit @RavenDreamer
 
SURPRISE CANDIDATE!
 
DAMMIT @TimStone
wait no
 
...my bow only lost 12 durability from that run but it costs 6000P to repair it.
 
@TimStone Ahahahahaha

Q: One PS+ Plus account on primary ps4 allow multiplayer on Call of Duty to all local accounts?

Mark-da-SharkMyself and three brothers share one PS4. We have an account with ps+ subscritpion we all share. I was wondering if we made two more local accounts if each of those accounts would be able to play Black Ops 3 multiplayer under seperate online psn accounts when it comes out? The PS4 account is activ...

 
6:06 PM
Oh god
 
I guess
 
inb4 questions
 
That's awesome
 
@Rapitor 10/15
 
Dude. That's... awesome.
WHAT
 
6:09 PM
I'm not sure how I feel about the directionality thing, but it definitely makes ordered operation easier.
 
Yeah, it will
Yeah, RIP the fill clock
But I welcome less CPU usage from 20 Hz commanding
 
I got 11/15. The early ones were easy but the later ones were less obvious
 
Yeah, I see this as generally a good thing.
 
@Sterno Just a heads up by the way - campaign clears only care about the type of campaign, not if it's necessarily the same map.
 
And I guess the directionality means it's passing strong power along that direction, which could lead to some interesting things. Of course, it might not be actually passing power.
 
6:15 PM
I think it's just passing command block magic signal
 
Probably, because redstone power is weird and the want to avoid that, despite making a new type of BUD
Which, I guess, may have already existed.
 
Mmmm, haven't had a burger in forever.
Really wish Whataburger would use potato wedges or thick-cut fries instead of these thin McDonalds fries though.
 
I've never been to Whataburger, I've heard they're good though
 
@Unionhawk GET DOWN FOR...
 
They are amazing, though I think they're a Texas-only chain.
 
6:28 PM
Damn you Tejas keeping these good burgers to yourself
 
Elevation Burger just moved in near me. They're pretty good.
 
@djsmiley2k deez nuts 2016
 
They do their fries in olive oil, which I guess is slightly healthier?
 
Smashburger has fries that are covered in rosemary and olive oil. SO GOOD.
SO GOOD
 
Ugh, olive is not a good fry oil.
It's a good dressing oil, but not a good fry oil.
 
6:31 PM
The Smash fries aren't done in olive oil I don't think, they're just soaked in it. Which is healthier.
 
Smoke point is too low for good frying.
 
Right, yeah. I'm pretty sure they just take regular fries and add olive oil
Totally healthy
But it's fine because they taste delicious
 
@Yuuki Eh, it's okay at Elevation. It tastes similar to other fries I've gotten, which I guess isn't a big endorsement
I used to love fries but I'm trying to cut back on them recently
Trying to be healthy and whatnot
 
So Whataburger does have locations outside of Texas, but it's exclusively a South/Southwest thing.
 
I have to actually watch what I eat semi-closely because I have a hereditary kidney thing
@Yuuki Aw. Someday I'll experience Whataburger
 
6:33 PM
I thought whataburger was in california
 
There's this chain in California I love called Boudin's. They have really good sourdough and soups. I went to their "find a location" website and it was structured to give me hope but there are only two options
 
California has In-N-Out
 
North Cali, Southern Cali
 
Nope, started in Corpus Christi (miles south of Houston).
Whataburger is pretty much the South's response to In-N-Out though.
 
In n out sucks
I don't get the hype at all
 
6:35 PM
I've never been to In-N-Out either :(
 
Well, then it's a better answer.
 
It is super popular though. Lines literally around the block
 
wat
 
They have employees with some sort of mobile device walk down the lines taking orders
 
Just had a bacon burger with a great sweet and spicy sauce. Yum.
 
6:36 PM
Bacon burger as in a solid patty made of bacon?
Is that a thing?
 
That looks awesome.
We do have Culver's here. They're pretty decent for a fast food joint.
 
@Unionhawk Pretty sure we use that just to say a normal burger patty but with bacon as well
 
The best part of Whataburger is how much customization you can do. I could put that burger on toast instead and have it halves instead of whole.
 
@GraceNote Yeah, that's what I figured. And that much pure bacon would probably be pretty gross.

Q: How to make a lighting sword in vanilla MineCraft?

Jaïr PaalmanI've been doing some research on making lightning swords or items but the only working things seem to be server plugins. I'm trying to achieve the same effect with command blocks in MineCraft 1.8.8. There probably is a way using scoreboard, execute and summon. The thing I'm trying, however, is to...

Q: Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server Reports all Maps are Missing?

odixonRecently, I installed MetaMod and SourceMod. Since I installed these I have been having the server report that it cannot find any maps. This is strange because when I go on the server as a client, everything seems fine. I have not installed any SourceMod plugins and have taken a picture of the er...

 
Now that I think about it
 
Whataburger also has great breakfast.
Only fast food chain that uses real eggs instead of powdered or pre-mixed.
For all their breakfast items with eggs, that is. McDonalds does use real eggs, but only for the Egg McMuffin.
And this is fairly consistent, in my experience.
 
@Yuuki So they can claim to use real eggs probably
Genius
 
And if you don't fall in love with the Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit, you're not human.
 
@Yuuki I'm drooling just reading this

Q: Help please I cant access NEI

XCraftedI cant Access NEI although I have the mod installed I cant find the options tab and the items or the options tab don't show

 
@twobugs Realize that this is a Texas chain, therefore Texas-sized portions.
 
@Lazers2.0 So @uni, this is a Minecraft question? I assumed it was a WoW mod I have never heard of given he tagged it as that
 
@twobugs NEI is a common minecraft mod.
 
Ah, okay. I deleted my comment then as it's not really relevant.
 
6:48 PM
100%
 
@Yuuki But... I am allergic to honey :( It tries to kill me if I eat it! ):
 
@badp i'm on THAT mission again
nom nom
 
@James That's like being allergic to happiness
 
@twobugs It is :(
 
Not really
 
6:50 PM
I have to actually put Sugar in my tea now :(
Very sad
 
And if anyone tries to make a "beeing" joke, I will slap them
 
@Yuuki As in they are 268,820 square mile proportions?
 
My brother told me a story about some school friends he had in high school. One was a boy who was allergic to chocolate.
And so one of the girls was like "Man, that must suck so bad, you can't eat chocolate", and he simply responds along the lines of "Not really. I mean, all chocolate is to me is something that kills me. There's no appeal to it after that."
 
I wish we understood why food allergies exist and could get rid of them because common ones are really bad
 
Apparently there is an anti-peanut-allergy thing in the works
 
6:52 PM
Like being allergic to nuts (peanuts specifically, even though they're legumes) would be really hard I imagine
 
Try being gluten intolerant
 
That's fun times
 
No thanks, I'm fine stuffing my disgusting face full of gluten
 
More places now know what to do with it, but it's still a lot of "Uh... nothing... on this menu is anything I can eat. Fantastic."
 
Two of my friends in college, one was gluten intolerant while the other was nut-allergic. This made group food planning a thing that actually required a lot more thought.
 
6:54 PM
Oh god
 
thank god for bbq
 
I guess the only decent thing about gluten is that "gluten free" has become a marketing thing now so you have more options
 
@twobugs Id be fine with that actually
 
nah
it's just become more expensive
 
I dont like most nuts and eat em so rarely.. Honey was almost a daily thing for me until I started reacting to it
 
6:55 PM
I love nuts. Pistachios are great!
 
We also had people who were lactose intolerant, but let me tell you about people who are lactose intolerant
 
@GraceNote Its much worse to become allergic to something over time than starting out allergic to it..
 
Lactose intolerant people are crazy.
 
Tuna and Honey .. I miss you!!!!!
@GraceNote I am not :P
 
@James Like... together? Or...?
 
6:56 PM
@Unionhawk Just two of the things I REALLLLLLY cant eat with out serious consequences now (as in if I like to keep on breathing I should not eat those two things)
Milk, just bugs the hell out of me.. but I like cheese too much to give a crap most of the time
 
Oh, so separately. I was confused for a minute there.
 
I probably regret eating cheese like twice a year :)
 
Unlike people I know who have allergies and such, who just try to avoid the food, all the lactose intolerant people I meet seem intent on stuffing their faces with dairy, sometimes taking some kind of medicine that doesn't even always work.
 
Like "who puts honey on their tuna?"
 
@James SEE THIS IS EXACTLY THAT
 
6:57 PM
@Unionhawk Maybe its just fond remembrances but that doesn't sound horribad...
 
It would be weird
 
@GraceNote LoL.. Not crazy, just willing to put up with things in exchange for awesome :)
 
Which is synonymous with crazy.
 
@GraceNote I am lactose intolerant but that will not stop me eating pizza
 
Thats like saying people are crazy for living in California cause its all hot just to enjoy the beach.
 
6:59 PM
Y'all are just proving that it's a general trait of lactose intolerance!
