A: What Is This Game?

SaintWackoThis is definitely Starsector. It's a very fun game, and I'd highly recommend it.

 
@SaintWacko Damn, beaten to it because I was trying to paste a link, and the mobile interface was not cooperating.
 
@TrentHawkins Muahaha
 
12:50 AM
@SaintWacko its changed since I last played it.
I don't recall swarm missiles.
And I love missile spam.
 
1:07 AM
@Sterno As usual, we agree on spoilers.
 
@Frank Right? I don't recognize a lot of the stuff I'm seeing there
But yeah, me too
My favorite Homeworld ships were always the missile destroyers
 
I'll probably wait until he has a full release before playing again, though.
Too much else to play.
 
@murgatroid99 I know I am late to the party, but yeah, The game shown is fun to play... so definitely not Starbound which is not fun to play :D

"Wow, so after the prologue MGS5 is pretty realistic. I mean, I just cleared the first mission and nothing crazy happened..."

Q: Can Thaumcraft 4 be played as a team?

OxinaboxMy wife and I have started playing through the Regrowth modpack. We are set as a party in the Hardcore Questing Mode book, and it is just the two of us on the server (running locally via "Open to LAN"). We have been having great fun working together. The Regrowth modpack eventually will work it...

Q: 2DS Data Transfer

TheLegend0713I, up until last week, owned a 2DS and had SSB4 as a download. However, the screen is damaged to the point of no functioning image. I initially thought that just popping the SD card into my new unused 2DS would be all I needed to do. That failed. I just read that data transfer is used to get it o...

Q: How do you deploy mister handy?

Travis BearI accidentally bought a mister handy instead of a lunchbox. Now that I have him, I can't see how to actually put him in the game and use him. He's not in the 'dwellers' menu in the upper left, nor in the 'settings' menu in the lower right. It seems like it should be obvious, but I don't see an...

Okay I need to stop watching Steven Universe and go to bed
 
@AshleyNunn or play more KoL... It's almost rollover!
 
user15026
But if I play now then I will have less for work tomorrow
 
:S
I guess your only option is to go the fuck to sleep
 
user15026
Shower, then bed but yes
 
Found him! Thanks for the helpful explanation. — Travis Bear 6 mins ago
yay, i like when askers are nice
there are a bunch of suggested edits in the review queue that are just adding keyboard formatting to ctrl, esc, etc... should I reject as too minor?
 
user15026
3:38 AM
@GodEmperorDune If that's all they do, and they don't actually improve the post, I'd reject
 
@GodEmperorDune does it look better?
 
@GodEmperorDune That's what I did.
 
i'd say approve it, because it looks better
 
the first one i approved
 
user15026
@Aequitas If that's the entire edit, and they don't fix anything else, it's too minor of a fix
 
3:40 AM
then i saw a whole bunch more by same user and it turned to nope
 
user15026
They should be correcting all issues with a post, and if that's the only issue with the post, it's not worth doing
 
@GodEmperorDune Ditto
One, you get a good faith assumption.
 
user15026
especially when it comes with a rep reward
 
But once you hit a dozen, nope.
Do more.
 
user15026
3:42 AM
I'd be rejecting them long before a dozen, but yeah
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, I started at #2.
You can have the first. It does help, a little.
But if that's all you're going to do, without improving the post further, it's not worth more rep.
 
agreed
that many rejects should prevent them from suggesting for a while iirc
 
@GodEmperorDune Only if they get rejected. A few have been approved, and some others need more rejects.
 
user15026
@Frank Can you link me to one?
 
user15026
Because the queue is apparently clear for me :P
 
You can check his activity queue, and click the pending edits, too.
Fun fact: If someone's reviewed something recently, it hides it for everybody else, so we don't have lots of people reviewing the same thing.
 
wow his history is a whole lot of keyboard formatting
 
user15026
@Frank Yeah, I know, that's where my problem is :P
 
user15026
@Frank That would make sense, if I wasn't too tired to think of it
 
3:47 AM
@AshleyNunn Checking the history of the Suggested Edit queue also works, for 10K+ users.
 
user15026
Yeah, I am just too sleepy to moderate, it seems :P
 
You can leave those powers in my capable hands.
I promise to abuse the crap out of them. :P

Q: All Sonic the Hedgehog transformations?

Lukifur HelbringerOriginally, I know Sonic could go Super Sonic whenever you collected the Chaos Emeralds in most Sonic the Hedgehog games. However, I've seen Sonic in quite a few other altered states. An example would be that I saw Sonic with no pupils and two stripes over his head. It would seem that he has gain...

 
@Arperum wife and I ran grift 42 a couple times, she doesn't have many of her build pieces yet though, so I'm more or less carrying her through. I ran out of keystones, tomorrow gonna try to solo some, see how high I can go

@badp dafuq?
 
@GodEmperorDune it's just mornromrnroenegengenem
 
@badp And what a nice terrible mornromrnroenegengenem
 
@fredley pls
@5pike It did just get a little brighter
 
@badp through annoying @fredley?
 
@5pike schadenfreude is powerful yo.
 
7:28 AM
@badp Yeah, true.
 
I think what fredley should do is port exponent to some sort of string arithmetics implementation
so that all of the rounding errors go away, and the game becomes naturally unplayable as time progresses
this would fix all of his issues with his creation.
on the other hand this would remove the 1e300-something barrier
 
@badp You'd still find something to complain about
 
7:48 AM
@Chippies What should they be?
@Chippies, gogok has a maxlevel of 50 (because 100% chance at that point) and the last season journey requires lvl 60 gems. just fyi.
 
8:07 AM
oh cool
Google Translate added camera translation support for Dutch
 
Ooh
You'll finally be able to read the signs!
 
and a buncha more languages.
@KevinvanderVelden the only sign I genuinely wanted to have translated is the one in Marienplatz, Munich with the red schritttempo word.
Despite the red and the rare and highly dangerous t triple-play it seems that it just means "walking speed"
I was quite disappointed, really.
I like how Google Translate misread "Mon Tue Wed Thu Fry Sat Sun" to "Man The Wed Thu Fry Sit Sun"
but I like even more how I only just noticed that our corporate calendar has "Fry" for "Friday"
 
Hmm, friday fry day? French fries for everyone!
 
8:25 AM
@KevinvanderVelden There are so many other things you can fry, don't make it always french fries.
 
@Arperum yes
There will also be frikandellen
 
@KevinvanderVelden TIL about frikandellen - they look tasty
 
@5pike they are, they are also one of those foods for which you don't want to know how they're made
 
@KevinvanderVelden Heh, yeah.
They look like longer cevapcici
 
They are also something that, too my knowledge, are a wholly dutch thing
@5pike maybe, frikandellen are made from various types of meat though (as in, various types of meat in the same frikandel) with spices and onions
They're also more finely ground I think
Hmm, I wonder if the auto vote reversal will trigger, someone upvoted 3 of my answers on arqade, one on SO and one on gamedev

Who probably has already seen it
 
@KevinvanderVelden I'm pretty sure you can get them in Belgium too, or something like them anyway. The word is used here too.
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yepp. Saw it on twitter.
 
But again: only two things is boring.
 
Viandellen!
 
8:41 AM
@KevinvanderVelden What about fry all the things. Although frying lettuce sounds like stupid.
 
But then you get deep fried twinkies
And no one wants that
(Well, maybe surgeons who specialize in triple bypasses)
 
So. The scraper for the Steam background site has been returning an error on almost every update for several months now, because of an error in a listing for one of the backgrounds
 
@KevinvanderVelden I don't even know what those are.
I was talking about frying food, not some sort of fake-food stuff.
 
@Arperum it is a twinkie, that has been deep fried
 
@Arperum You could try breading it before you fry.
 
8:43 AM
I informed Steam support about this back in May. Nothing came back, until today, when Steam replied with a form letter telling me that they were sorry for the slow response due to high ticket load, and suggested several completely irrelevant fixes for my problem
 
@KevinvanderVelden I lack knowledge about what a twinkie is.
 
@Arperum it's an american thing made out of sugar surrounded by more sugar that isn't being made anymore (as I recall)
A Twinkie is an American snack cake, marketed as a "Golden Sponge Cake with Creamy Filling." It was formerly made and distributed by Hostess Brands and is again being sold under the Hostess Brands name. The brand is currently owned by private equity firms Apollo Global Management and C. Dean Metropoulos and Company. During bankruptcy proceedings, Twinkie production in the United States ended on November 21, 2012, and resumed after an absence on American store shelves, becoming available again nationwide on July 15, 2013. Twinkies are produced in Canada by Saputo Incorporated's Vachon Inc. (at a...
 
I mean, a form letter response within a week would already be ridiculous. A form letter response after four month is just...
 
> becoming available again nationwide on July 15, 2013.
 
Only Steam can get away with this ridiculous level of customer support
 
8:44 AM
@5pike did not know that
 
@KevinvanderVelden I just read it on wikip.
 
@KevinvanderVelden That sounds unhealthy to a ridiculous degree if you fry that.
 
> A deep-fried Twinkie involves freezing the cake, dipping it into batter, and deep-frying it to create a variation on the traditional snack cake.

Murica: where you'd add sugar to pumpkin risotto
 
Going so far as to hide them from the transcript via style sheet =p
 
@KevinvanderVelden The guy that annoyed you earlier on gamedev?
 
8:50 AM
@5pike yes that guy, if by annoyed you mean "started flagging everything I said"
 
@KevinvanderVelden Isn't flag abuse a bannable offence?
 
@KevinvanderVelden you'll find that it doesn't really work
 
@5pike yeaah he was banned for a few days, then went sock puppeting to avoid that and got a total of 30 day ban
 
@KevinvanderVelden I love it when that happens.
 
@badp probably, I'll see
 
8:52 AM
@KevinvanderVelden Heh, good. I remember a certain person that got a year-ban for that.
 
Speaking of unhealthy deep fried stuff, henryhargreaves.com/#deep-fried-gadgets
 
Yeah I don't think the punishment was quite severe enough honestly, bypassing a ban multiple times + flag abuse = total of 30 days
 
@5pike He had quite the history.
 
@badp He was also overly annoying.
 
8:54 AM
@PrivatePansy what the hell
 
> This is a commentary about the similarities between tech culture and fast food. Quickly devoured and then discarded because of our appetite for the newest product
 
@KevinvanderVelden You can see that the laptop is a paper model, if you look at it for a bit.
 
Yeah
I mean, the fact that it's curling and still showing something gave it away
(Though I thought at first it was some kind of printed marzipan like they use in cakes)
 
Now I wonder how fried marzipan looks/tastes

Q: What to do about fights in Mother Base

kviiriI got a message that a fight had broken out in Mother Base. I was at the Base at the time and couldn't see any signs of scuffle nearby, but didn't bother to check the other platforms. What does the fight mean, why does it happen, what should I do about it and what happens if I don't?

 
9:05 AM
@5pike If you even make some, let me know.
 
I might get the old fryer out, we'll see.
Though I'll probably forget, thanks to MGS5 and all its possibilities...
Like "rescuing" a bear
 
@PrivatePansy have there actually been new iterations in fast food burgers since ever?
@5pike PETA bait
 
@5pike Is that bear going up or down?

They do it with surprising regularity, actually
 
@Arperum Up. FULTON recovery
The Fulton surface-to-air recovery system (STARS) is a system used by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), United States Air Force and United States Navy for retrieving persons on the ground using aircraft such as the MC-130E Combat Talon I. It involves using an overall-type harness and a self-inflating balloon which carries an attached lift line. An MC-130E engages the line with its V-shaped yoke and the person is reeled on board. Red flags on the lift line guide the pilot during daylight recoveries; lights on the lift line are used for night recoveries. Recovery kits were designed for one and...

@PrivatePansy well yes, we've recently had a time limited McLobster.
but the "base" offering...
 
A burger featuring real lobsters?
 
@5pike I hope he knows to keep still, because it doesn't look very strongly tied to his leg.
 
Also, regarding deep fried twinkies, this is still the best thing ever:
 
That actually sounds interesting
 
@Arperum Eh, the bear made it safely to base.

@Arperum to be fair, I did link the TB tastes america video
So it's partially my fault
Also @Arperum, the TB tastes america video has deep fried twinkie for your viewing "pleasure"
 
@KevinvanderVelden There is no partial fault here, take 100% of the blame. You monster.

The Nintendo 2DS is an entry-level version of the Nintendo 3DS which maintains otherwise identical hardware, similar functionality, and compatibility with software designed for the Nintendo DS and 3DS.

That's like a kid that was caught on something, going "But he did it too!"

I don't even know
It was some $2.5 million dollar house near me I was looking at because curious
 
apparently it's a word for "fake Italian"
like parmesan is Italianate
 
@badp Which I think in turn translates to "has a fancy pool"
 
you know, it's probably similar to how Chrome claims to be "Mozilla 1.1 (compatible)"
it's Mozillanate

Yeah. "knee slapping gif" didn't turn up as great of results as I'd hoped, and I'm lazy

@Sterno that is fancy
 
11:40 AM
It doesn't look like many houses I've seen here in Italy, but it does look fancy.
I dunno I don't think there's a particular style that makes Italian homes Italian. It's not probably the sort of thing that you can tell from the inside anyway.
 
Nice flood plane behind the house. lol
@badp paint them white?
leave piles of rubbish outside?
 
@djsmiley2k very few white houses around.
 
oh ok
