Make sure you only know the appropriate amount about Rhode Island. Any more or any less and you're banned.

> You Know The Appropriate Amount About Rhode Island!
Nice! You’re totally normal. You probably know that Rhode Island is small, and you maybe even know that its capital is Providence. There’s even an off chance that you know it’s one of the original 13 colonies, but nothing more—and that’s a good thing.

> You Know The Somewhat Appropriate Amount About Rhode Island!
Not bad. You don’t know an outrageous amount of Rhode Island information or anything, but you know a thing or two that might make some raise an eyebrow. Those facts shouldn’t be too hard to forget, though, so just do that and take this quiz again!

(Yay for guessing!)

> Hmm. Why exactly do you know this? This is the type of thing you maybe know if you’re in eighth-grade U.S. history and you’re in the unit where you learn about this type of stuff. Are you in eighth-grade U.S. history right now? It’s okay if you are, but if not...weird.

@KevinvanderVelden This would have been my score (I forgot the capital of Rhode Island), but I somehow correctly guessed the Senators, and was promptly berated by the quiz.

Clickhole is great.

I got highest point, founder and miles of coastline and size right

(All of which, I might add, were guesses)

7:19 PM

Estimated appropriate amount of knowledge about Rhode Island:
- It exists
- Don't go there

I knew the coastline one and I'm not sure why someone please hold me I'm scared

Knew or guessed?

If knew SHUN!

@TimStone Do you have built-in wifi?

Like I picked it being remotely confident it was the right answer.

I was strangely concerned that I would guess the correct answer.

Nice, you're now Hatman

I have never bought a hat :(

@KevinvanderVelden I just finished the first book and started the second. I've also read the Alloy of Law, I read it first by mistake

My dad just finished the series

@GnomeSlice Curve the brim! Kids today. GET OFF MY LAWN!

I have five flatbrims now

GODDAMMIT UNDERTALE

This one is the second snapback

@GnomeSlice that's a shame, I think you spoiled yourself to the amazing ending =[

@GnomeSlice is snapback and flatbrim different things?

Not necessarily, my others are fitted though

Yes, one has 8 letters and the other... wait no that doesn't work

@KevinvanderVelden its okay I don't remember much important

is snapback, like, the thingy in the back that snaps for different head sizes?

Yes

cool, TIL

It's also the shittiest quality hat in my collection now

But it's not too bad

It was only $20 so yeah

7:37 PM

Still Unique quality

I never actually analyzed the word "snapback" before. I don't really think about hats often though, so that's probably why

wait "only" $20?

Yeah?

@badp his other hat was 50$

@badp Hat$

7:38 PM

My last snapback was $45

I figured this sort of hat went for $10 tops. BUT WHAT DO I KNOW ABOUT HATS

My green lantern fitted was $40

And the two blank fitted ones were $25

I have literally never identified my hats by how they are sized. They are identified by the logo on them.

Well yeah

All my fitted ones are the same size

@GnomeSlice is fitted like, a guy measures your head and makes a hat just for you? or you just pick one from diff sizes until you find one that matches?

fitted sounds really fancy, because I associate it with fitting suits

7:39 PM

You try them till the right size

Yeah no they aren't like custom made

There's sizes

And then you go a month without cutting your hair and realize that fitted hats are stupid.

Be quiet old man

I remember when @Gnome accidentally shaved his head

good times

Yeah that sucked

Did you buy hats before that incident?

7:42 PM

Yes

Next on my list:

Christmas list

My 2 young rats really want a piece of cucumber. Then they lay it on the floor somewhere and come back begging for more

Thankfully my kids play Little League, and they are provided hats that are properly curved.

When I don't give them more they instead start grooming themselves xp

What a dark phuture awaits me, the King of Dictionary.

Your kids are dumb

Hmm @Arperum, Savage Circus is pretty cool

@KevinvanderVelden Yes. Have a listen to Serious Black too. That's the most recent band of the drummer. And that guy is good.

I just looked through some list of new stuff that will be in afterbirth. This one this seemed to be the most ridiculous claim:

> - 20 million new co-op babies

@Arperum sounds good as well

8:01 PM

@KevinvanderVelden Yes, didn't know them, saw a show this summer in Czech, was completely blasted of my socks. I did have a serious case of "I recognise that drumming. Where do I know this guy from?"

Until they said his name, and then I was like "Ah, that dude played in Blind Guardian".

murgatroid99

@Arperum It depends. If they just randomly combine 7 different traits, each with 10 possible options, that's 100 million. That may not be exactly what they're doing, but the point is that you can get a lot of "new" things with relatively little work using randomness and combinatorics.

@murgatroid99 Ah yea. Allow every sprite to be upside down and you just doubled possible coop babies.

Q: Bukkit Minecraft Plugin - YAML Configuration Errors

I would regularly ask this question on Stack Overflow, but I have somehow reached my question limit there, so I am asking here. I am developing a Java Minecraft plugin for my server, and I am having problems using a YAML configuration file, which I am new to. Anyways, here is the console errors...

An entire day of debugging taken just to discover that the window was being drawn off-screen.

Yuuki

@Lazers2.0 Say "rekt" and then log off.

@JasonBerkan Sounds like fun. And a serious facepalm when you figured it out.

@Arperum Especially because the program has a reset function that clears all the user saved location values and that was the first thing I ran this morning.

@JasonBerkan And that's when it started drawing off-screen?

@Arperum No. The reset was my first debugging task when the issue was reported.

So I spent most of the day convinced it wasn't being drawn off screen, but that the program was hanging.

8:59 PM

@JasonBerkan But that didn't work/properly reset?

@Arperum That's going to be tomorrow's job. Figure out why the reset didn't work. And, as is to be expected, this is not my code.

@JasonBerkan Sounds like fun.

Though the workaround is pretty easy, it doesn't happen that often, so figuring out why might be a pretty low priority.

Q: Is there a way to reliably set rooms on fire?

I have an achievement that requires setting fire to... sorry, extinguishing a certain number of fires. I tend to just rush a room until I've extinguished the requisite number of fires. However this takes a long time - sometimes I get radroach or molerat infestations. Is there a way to avoid thes...

fallout-shelter

@Lazers2.0 Rushing a room without adjacent dirt will remove the molerat option. Don't know if that increases the chance of a fire, though.

@Yuuki if you have to say "rekt" you never actually "rekt" anybody

I've got a sneaky suspicion that this user is a sock.

He posts lots of non-answers, that always get upvotes.

And then he upvotes stuff, too.

So long as "sock" is still being used in the room, and won't make the room less searchable

it will make it more searchable, not less.

Q: Why do we tag Reaper of Souls as Diablo 3?

Looking through the Diablo 3 tags, I noticed that we have a tag for Reaper of Sous on computer, but not console. After looking further, it appears that the tag diablo-3-reaper-of-souls links back to diablo-3. Furthermore, there is simply the tag diablo-3-console, where both Diablo 3 and Diablo 3:...
