8:01 PM

After playing a few levels, I have to say that it's not terribly clear on how one gets a 100%/perfect score.

@Yuuki Solve Science

So I'm turning on my pc and my power light comes on, but it isn't starting.

My monitor doesn't get a signal and none of the usb devices are getting any power.

Hardware reset and power buttons don't do anything. Any ideas how to fix this?

Q: A time limit for languages?

My question is ( simply ) why is there a time limit ( of 10 seconds )on the language select screen in Banjo Kazooie ? Is it system limitations? A joke ? Or something to make the game stand out?

Q: Samorost3 tea maker folwer seed

![the tea maker in Samorost3. please no video links as it ruins the game experience for me. I only want a hint to how I get the seed from the flower so we can brew tea. ]1

My fans are running if that makes a difference

@Yuuki if you do you get a nobel prize

8:09 PM

Today I learned that sweet tea, grapes, and chocolate do not make for a pleasant combination.

@Yuuki ugh, no windowed mode?

Oh, well I fixed it now somehow.

@Dragonrage Glad we could help

@Dragonrage sounds like won't post

possibly bios issue, did you reboot again and then it worked?

@NateKerkhofs right so you are describing every phishing attack ever

@NateKerkhofs you cannot

how do you have this information?

8:15 PM

@badp hmm

yeah, but they not phishing your adobe details

hell, you could click the link, then go 'oh crap, never use links in an email', open the REAL SITE in the same tab

still click back to gmail/hotmail/yahoomail/outlook online

and have to 're-login'

not realising that re-login is to a fake site.

It's a brilliant distraction

Q: Is there a light gun that will work on a DLP projector?

I'd like to play shooting games on my DLP projector (1080p, 130" screen) and I'm wondering if there are any light guns that work on this kind of screen. I know that traditional light guns won't work, as they rely on the CRT scanning process to figure out where you're pointing them, and the DLP t...

the phishing happens on a tab, you've not even touched

!

@djsmiley2k but that literally never happens

you would immediately notice something is up

yopu never click a link, then few hours later find you've been logged out in another?

@djsmiley2k i couldnt reboot it manually. the hardware button to power it on/off didnt do anything

8:17 PM

@djsmiley2k have you ever seen gmail kick you out to the login prompt?

@Dragonrage but after hardware reboot it came up?

without your doing anything

@badp YES

it only happens when you open the browser

hmmm

you've not played with multiple profiles enough

8:17 PM

@djsmiley2k it rebooted itself after a bit and started fine

it's quite easy to hit the login screen by 'accident'

@djsmiley2k I use ~5 at work

rebooted itself @Dragonrage ? that's not fun

well, until last month anyway

@badp ... then i'm supprised you've never had it happen

as in a 'single' firefox profile

but within google, I had 3 linked accounts

i'd regularly get confused about /u/1 and /u/0

8:18 PM

had 5 on chrome and 5 on firefox

but properly different profiles

I'd try and go to gmail.com/u/1/

and get the login page for /u/0

@djsmiley2k well it was just sitting there with the power light on and spinning my fans and not doing anything else. then i was texting one of my friends who is good with computers and it just shut down and restarted

not GMail's "you're logged in as multiple users" thing

had to then log out of u/0/, relogin to /u/1/

why are you doing this to yourself

8:19 PM

then you don't know wtf i'm talking about

use multiple proper profiles

I don't anymore :D

I'm not talking about me

right, you're talking about google-specific fuckuppery

i'm talking about joe bloggs.

my wife has managed to do it

are gmail or inbox even vulnerable

8:20 PM

and I've seen people at a previous job where they used google business stuff manage to screw it up royally

so yes, it happens

you're complaining that Google lets you log in as multiple accounts in the same browser session

and it doesn't work very well

and people just go 'oh a login screen'.

No

@AshleyNunn i know you dont play league, but ithought you might like these

You told me it doesn't happen - I explained it does happen, and the cause.

what doesn't happen is an existing tab suddenly becoming a login screen

and

for those people

and those cases

8:21 PM

So I like Rocket League because I can force my bad teammates to help me.

you think those people would even know that it 'shouldn't happen' ?

regular old boring non-opener-based phishing would still work

@Dragonrage how?

@badp also true :D

@djsmiley2k smash into them and send them flying into the ball

if as you say they are used to seeing google login screen all the time, does it really matter what tab does it open with?

8:22 PM

i scored two goals that way

@Dragonrage haha pool shot ftw

Tho I think that's using an enemy...

i also shot the ball once and then corrected the aim by hitting the other team into it

so since you'd get pwned anyway, please make sure that people are more aware of the fact that you can easily have multiple profiles running alongside each other

so that it is more difficult to get mixed up

i also got 3 backwards shots so far

@badp lol yes

@Dragonrage :D

now i wanna play

@Fluttershy #shrekt

@badp Adobe was breached a few years ago. Attackers compromised 153M accounts, including email addresses and usernames.

right, so you can phish them directly.

@Dragonrage I need that Jax figure in my life.

@badp You don't phish them directly though. You find an email provider with a vulnerable webmail client, you focus on the users with an address from that provider and compromise their email. you then got access to someone's email and can use that information to steal directly from them using password resets and malicious purchases

8:34 PM

@NateKerkhofs which still involves tricking the user into clicking on your link

I don't disagree that it is a problem

@badp As i said, you just make it relevant to their interests

i luld

haveibeenpwned.com/PwnedWebsites And since there are at least 100 breaches easily buyable online, it's trivial to break in

@NateKerkhofs to all 153M users' interests?

@badp remember what I gave as an example?

> dear %username, someone (hopefully you) reset your password. If you did not do this, please click %link to contact support

such an email is trivial to generate

and at least some of the users would fall for it

or imagine receiving an email related to your Ashley Madison account, claiming "if you don't pay us 1 bitcoin, we will inform your spouse. Please click %link to find out how to send us bitcoin

Again, Ashley Madison is trivial to find

Newly Opened Proposals for Entertainment

1

Proposed Q&A site for experts on matters regarding one's specific local community and neighborhood.

Currently in definition.

1

Proposed Q&A site for website developers using wordpress, themes and plugins. Installation issues, tutorial & theme recommendations.

Currently in definition.

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment eww why would you do that to yourself?

9:28 PM

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment there is already a wordpress.stackexchange.com ...

@Lazers2.0 This one is hopeless... I explained what to do with the file, but the kid doesn't even know how to open the file in notepad

Did you seriously ban me for "send in the clowns"

I wasn't even referring to anyone in particular

you just hate the word "clown"

how would you feel if I banned you for "meanwhile"

because I hate that word

the way it is used here

@badp

9:45 PM

@ChromeSlice the difference is that you're calling people clowns, I'm not calling anyone a meanwhile

I'm surprised this is a sentence I just had to type out

I do not hate clowns.

I do not tolerate your calling other people clowns.

Who did I call a clown

nobody even commented on it

@ChromeSlice I asked you to elaborate, and you refused.

but since you were asking for help for a rollback/comment war, this is ostensibly either everyone who can flag comments, or everyone who's a mod

I don't care whichever it is, you don't get to call them all clowns

I was expecting a bunch of people arguing in comments

Thanks for flagging it up. Keep the name calling to yourself.

I was at work which is why I didn't 'elaborate' right away

9:48 PM

I waited for your response.

I responded eventually

and I acted after your response

Do you think "clown" is supposed to be an actual insult

yes.

I call @Unionhawk out for calling people idiot, I'm also going to call you out on calling people clowns.

lol

well I don't have a response for that

it's not supposed to be

it's like "nerd"

for me anyway

like "let's play, nerds"

9:50 PM

right, I am going to assume that nerd also is a drive-by passive-aggressive insult when coming from you

idk why it bugs you so much

i am never passive with my aggression

But you're aggressive with your passion

haha, nice

Youtube is being stupid for me recently

Probably comcast sucking

plus,"send in the clowns" is just too good a phrase to pass up

it's a pun, you see

Actually I guess it is the original phrase

Frank Sinatra - Send in the Clowns

9:59 PM

twitch.tv/twobugs send in the souls

I'm with @GnomeSlice on this one, the idea that clown is a bannable personal attack is a stretch imo

I didn't think he was actually calling anyone a clown to begin with, but I've heard that phrase plenty of times before. shrug

I'm personally very doubtful that "Frank Sinatra reference" was on your list of thoughts when you said "send in the clowns'.

Monokuma confirmed for Trump

@ChromeSlice cc @badp

10:13 PM

@Yuuki I was actually making a pun on what i think was an episode of Futurama

Send in the Clones

or some other show

mostly just because it's fun to say

yeah clown is a fun word

Send in the Clowns (The Krusty Comeback Special)

aha

See it's pop culture

I clown therefore I am

best word

In any case, while I don't think you should've been punished for it in any sense, "clown" is more often than not used in a disparaging manner so maybe don't use it in comments and such on the site.

@Yuuki i thought it was used in discord, not on the site

10:16 PM

I didn't

i used it here

oh, well i'm wrong then

Because somebody tried to start a fight in comments

@GodEmperorDune Oh, I thought @badp mentioned a comment on the site.

No

I treat the site pretty professionally these days

believe it or not

I regret all my old troll posts

Q: Does jungle block line of sight?

Civilopedia says: A unit cannot see a target if a blocking terrain object is between the two - a mountain or hill, for example, or a forest tile. So does jungle count as "a blocking terrain object"? The description above doesn't mention it, but it doesn't feel conclusive. After all jungle...

@ChromeSlice that's awesome :D

@Lazers2.0 I could have sworn this was a dupe of something from back when many of us used to play mh3u, but I can't seem to find it.

@TimStone wat

I mean I know the idea is wat

but who even CONSIDERS giving people the OPTION to have BEEF on their PIZZA

it's like asking you if you would like some off-brand nutella with your champagne
