I might make a community ad for Mario Marathon Donation Matching.
Would that be allowed / should I do it?
 
@ardaozkal Sure, but I'm not sure if it would go into the rotation in time?
You can make a community ad for whatever you want. If folks don't like it they'll just downvote.
 
@ardaozkal i don't see why not. ktash said he has an upper limit figured out, if you link to the meta post with detials that would be good
@Wipqozn if bridge jumped into vote it up it would
 
Alright, I'll do my best
 
user15026
@ardaozkal yeah I just went with the 360 one
 
@Yuuki Do not taunt happy fun ball
 
5:04 PM
@GodEmperorDune No I mean I'm not sure ifi it takes time after hitting the threshold to show up
 
@Wipqozn i doubt that getting through caching will take 2 weeks
 
@GodEmperorDune oh 2 weeks?
I thought it was going on now
 
It is I thought
 
and wasn't even thinking of caching, was thinking like they did some manual approval of it or something.
also oh my firetrucks
 
No, begins June 24
With Zeldathon beginning June 17
Back to back
 
5:07 PM
The moral of the story is BACK TO WROK
 
@Wipqozn I know, I mainly asked to see the responses. No point in doing a com pro ad if it isn't going to get enough upvotes.
 
@ardaozkal pls link it when it's done

Q: What are the character specific achievements?

ChaseCI was playing as Roadhog and hooked someone mid-ultimate and got an achievement and a Roadhog spray. Are there achievements for every character? If so, what are they? Does every achievement unlock something?

Q: How to use ~ in /testfor command block?

MatthewI'm trying to test for a player in a certain area relative to the command block executing the command, so if I need to move the location of what I'm making, the command block isn't sensing for something 3000 blocks away. What I have is this: /testfor @a[x=~1,dx=0,z=~-3,dz=0,y=~4,dy=102] And th...

 
@GodEmperorDune yeah, because I'll upvote it. You'll probably want to delete it after the charity is over though;.
 
@Wipqozn yeah i agree

yeah I'll remove after 26th

There is a lot of pulled pork in this pulled pork sandwich.
Might be wiser to go at this with fork and knife rather like a regular burger.
@MBraedley Wireless PC controller?
 
@Yuuki Sounds like, without the wireless adapter.

Q: GTA V Garages 'Special Vehicles'

HidexiiI've seen people go into their garage and be able to select 'Special Vehicles'. How do I do that? Do I need to unlock it by doing a certain mission? (I play on Xbox 360 btw)

 
uhoh
labour maybe starting
 
5:35 PM
@Lazers2.0 People seem to be downvoting all the Overwatch questions
 
hhmmmmmmm
is that due to the 'all the overwatch questions are getting more and more stupid' thing?
 
Probably
 
heh
ahhhhhhhhh
i'm not rdy for new baby :O
 
We've had other Overwatch questions that were readily available in-game stuff people liked so I don't see why this one is so bad but whatever
 
@djsmiley2k oh thats not a metaphor?
 
5:36 PM
lol nope
 
so congrats
 
well yeah, I am ready, but the labour thing is for real
cept lil' bit early, but thats fine, he's fully grown
docs were starting to worry about size
 
@djsmiley2k Let me be the first to wish your child a happy birthday.
 
zeroth birthday best birthday
 
HA, SUCKERS, THAT MAKES ME GODFATHER. SUCK IT, BRIDGE!
 
5:37 PM
@Yuuki thats not how it works
 
@Yuuki if history means anything it'll be 3-4 days yet
 
We should celebrate our conception days
 
thats not how any of this works
 
I'm going to make sure my children do that
 
@twobugs Mine is probably February 14th.
11/17. 11 - 9 = 2.
 
5:38 PM
Wat. Trump was saying Clinton was "too politically correct" to say "Radical Islam"
I... don't even...
 
@twobugs That's been his spiel for a long time now.
 
I don't get how that has anything to do with political correctness, though
"Political correctness" seems to be a meaningless snarl phrase at this point
 
@twobugs i believe it means "people get upset when i say offensive things"
i haven't heard anyone say "excuse me for being politically incorrect but i believe in full gender equality in all things"
 
Eh, you occasionally hear that when talking about children's custody and sexual assault.
 
ewwwwww
for a moment my mind combined that into something horrific
 
5:43 PM
Well, not necessarily those things together, you horrible person.
 
@Yuuki fair enough, i was actually struggling to come up with something that was flagrantly nonoffensive
 
@GodEmperorDune I think that case is just people not understanding things.
 
@Yuuki unfortunately my life has involved in horrible things :/
 
In other news, this pulled pork sandwich was pretty good.
 
I love a good pulled pork batch
nom nom
i want to make some bbq pulled pork now D:
 
5:46 PM
Yeah I was right. Fathers tend to win custody when they actually try.
 
@Ronan really?
 
I didn't actually read that.
Maybe I should.

Q: Minecraft item thrown in a hopper problem

BilI'm trying to throw an item in a hopper and give an item to myself by using a command block. How do i do that? I've looked on many websites and videos but they never tell me how to.

 
@Ronan Is this study localized to the UK?
 
@Yuuki Can't see it saying anything either way.
 
5:49 PM
@Ronan Like most news articles, it doesn't really look at the study in any great detail.
 
Yeah I know.
But I've also heard it elsewhere.
 
It is interesting though.
Given what many people consider "common knowledge".
 
Yup.
 
i'd personally never thought otherwise
 
It's amazing the numbers of things that people call "Reverse sexism" with turn out to be false and in some cases actually sexist.
 
5:51 PM
@Ronan It's almost as if so called "masculists" don't actually care about the facts
 
To be fair, reverse sexism is still just sexism.
 
@Yuuki And also isn't a thing.
 
@Ronan well, actually...
 
 
@Yuuki hammertime?
 
5:55 PM
@GodEmperorDune Or collaborate and listen.
 
@twobugs Meninist is my favourite term, because they're really bad at coming up with names.
See also: Social Justice Warriors.
 
Huh. "reddit" auto-completes to "reddit.com/r/overwatch" rather than "reddit.com" now.
 
@Ronan that sounds like a pretty manly occupation. where do i sign up to be a social justice warrior?
 
@GodEmperorDune It's a synonym for feminist, so hopefully you already are.
 
5:58 PM
@Ronan yeah i was trying to play the other side or whatever and kinda failing at it. i just don't understand the MRA point and i'm not sure i ever will

@Yuuki You're not my real dad!
 
@Ronan Something something urmom
 
@Yuuki to clarify, i was not trying to suggest that i need a mansplaining
 
5:59 PM
Although you could be my real dad's sockpuppet.
 
@Ronan i thought @fredley was your real dad
 
@GodEmperorDune Still no.
 
I thought you only stopped for blue stop signs, but you needed to keep moving for the beige ones.
 
I can't super ping and my dad never visits here.

Q: Why is my PS1 stuck at the system boot screen?

SAV-07DI recently acquired an older Playstation 1 system that is malfunctioning, and I'm having trouble figuring out what the cause is. It's an older SCPH-1001 model, the one with the three composite AV outputs on the back. The problem is that it seems to be permanently stuck on the system boot screen...

 
ugh
all the web needs markdown.
I DON'T WANT TO PRESS RANDOM BUTTONS TO GET A BOLD TEXT
 
All the web needs to use the same Markdown.
 
It is annoying that GitHub supports fenced code blocks and SO doesn't
 
@Ronan Manoknight sounds cool, too
Far cooler than what they really are
 
@twobugs I disagree. It sounds bad anime bad.

WHAT DID YOU DO!?
 
I just accidentally the entire server
 
@MBraedley The boss asking?
 
@djsmiley2k A field service rep
 
oh dear D:
 
Ugh, I haven't had any good questions to ask recently
I guess I could self answer one about this incredibly dumb Ratchet and Clank trophy
 
6:29 PM
@Yuuki something something xkcd, now there are 17 standards
 
@GodEmperorDune This is why I'm okay with Google taking over everything. At least we'll finally have proper standardization.
 
And if Google doesn't own it yet, give it time.
Until the release of Google Time(TM).
 
@MadMAxJr its gonna suck when they decide to cancel google time
@Yuuki i'm kinda pissed that they never implemented the relative headings from html 5 and now its going to die
 
will google time have daylight saving?
 
Google had so many good ones they just threw out. archive.google.com/tisp/index.html
 
6:34 PM
There, posted my first self-answered question
If people hate this I will be quite upset
 
@MadMAxJr not sure who made the decision to flush that one
@twobugs cc @frank
 
@twobugs looks fine to me, though i have never played the game. only suggestion i would have is add a source if you have one. otherwise it is fine
 
@Unionhawk Oh hey, Janice in Accounting actually gave a f--k this episode.
 
John Oliver? Yeah, she did.
Announcing during the show that you're ditching your 401k vendor is a bold move on their part.
 
6:43 PM
@MadMAxJr given the amount of pushback over fees, its probably not a surprise

Q: Is the Groovitron trophy tracked across playthroughs?

two bugsThere's a trophy in Ratchet and Clank (2016) that requires you to hit every single enemy in the game with the Groovitron, a portable disco ball that forces enemies to dance while you blast them to smithereens. Anyway, this isn't sold in the store until you reach Rilgar, which is potentially after...

Q: What do the different colors signify in the diep.io class chart?

AerovistaeIf you look at the class chart shown on the diep.io wiki, you'll see there seems to be a color coding scheme using yellow, blue, red, and green, but there's no key. Can anyone explain what the different colors indicate?

@djsmiley2k best time

@djsmiley2k is that good or bad?
 
8:02 PM
about a week before she started getting pains that only showed up when she wasn't sat on the sofa
@GodEmperorDune I think
it's good.
 
@GodEmperorDune VTC as dupe actually
 
He's ready, no issues there.... just not sure we are :D
 
@twobugs good point, i'll second that VTC
 
Wee! Now my department knows I'm leaving!
It's sorta surreal
I've been working this client for so long, I'm stuck in how they do things.
And I've already had recruiters submitting me for positions 30% above what I currently make.
 
8:09 PM
It's funny. I joked about people being mad that the new Destiny expansion isn't come out for last gen consoles, but they actually are mad
 
ouch (8 and 10 were all nighters 9 was charge)
 
I mean, I don't really have any sympathy for people who demand cross-gen support this far into a new generation
It just hurts everyone else

Q: In MC 1.8, can you make a player get speed when they are sprinting?

RyptI'm trying to make a vanilla Kitpvp server, and I want to make a kit that gives u normal WALKING speed, but when u are SPRINTING, you have a speed boost. Is that possible? If so, then how?

 
RAHH HOW DARE GREEDY MICRO$OFT NOT SUPPORT THE ORIGINAL XBOX
 
@twobugs i demand cross gen support
how does that work with PC though?
/r/pcmasterrace
 
8:13 PM
PC has tons of compatibility issues with older games
Most are surmountable if you dig around, but that's one of the pros of the open platform
 
Ugh, ruby really doesn't have ++?
at least it has +=
 
@Unionhawk use a real language
 
@GodEmperorDune I'm just doing codecademy stuff right now
Because, meh
 
@Unionhawk urmom uses codeacademy... and now she is a pretty decent programmer
 
Either way, people who demand cross gen support this far into a new gen's life are dumb
 
8:16 PM
MY ORIGINAL XBOX WORKS FINE, WHY CAN'T THEY SUPPORT IT?
 
@Unionhawk I should do more codeacademy stuff.
 
Ruby is proving to probably be a waste of my time
"This is a while loop. It works like this" "Yeah, it's basically Python I know"
 
People who do this also say things like "GIVE ME ONE REASON TO UPGRADE"
 
@twobugs THE GAME YOU WANT IS ON THE NEW SYSTEM
 
And you can say "Well you're using 10+ year old hardware that is dying and holding development back which is why companies don't support it"
And then they'll say "JUST GIVE ME ONE REASON TO UPGRADE" because nothing is a valid reason for them
 
8:18 PM
AND ALSO THE ORIGINAL XBOX IS LITERALLY 15 YEARS OLD
 
I don't know how the upgrade process for Destiny works so they might have some legitimate complaints if they have to rebuy everything
But that's different from "grr support my ancient tech"
I hope my science on my modem works. Either way I need to talk to Comcast in the end
 
I'm just glad the old consoles are dead because it means we're no longer kept back by the limited memory of the previous generation. That really stalled graphics development on the PC
 
No kidding. PS3 was what, 256?
 
wat
no
srs?
no
plsno
 
> Memory 256 MB XDR DRAM system and 256 MB GDDR3 video
 
8:25 PM
GODDAMMIT
 
So yes, 256 video ram
 
WHO
WHAT
Oh, 2006
Hmm
 
Xbox 360 was 512 total as well
 
Xbox was 200*1*
Right?
Or
 
November 15, 2001
 
8:27 PM
Yeah, so that was like, PS2/Gamecube gen
 
I can always decide to skip a generation or two of new PC hardware. But I can't do anything if developers/publishers are holding back because they're limited by what the consoles can do, and don't want to spend much more effort on the PC
 
Yuppppp
 
No, wait, no
> 64 MB of DDR SDRAM @ 200 MHz
 
But All console games will suck now and forever, because the Xbox One video game console has THE WRONG RAM

Q: How do environmental kills charge the Ultimate Meter?

8:28 PM
360 was 512
 
@Unionhawk Yes, that's what I said
 
@Lazers2.0 this really should be an edit on the other answer
 
Though I'm slightly annoyed about Intel not making much progress in CPU speed, and AMD not being a real competition. I'd like some incentive to create a new build, but it would be too expensive for a relatively minor speed boost
 
You totally said Xbox original edit
And you clarified with November 2001
 
@Unionhawk I clarified to be 360
And you said Xbox classic was 2001, which I agreed with
 
8:29 PM
@MadScientist I think we've reached some fundamental limits of single-core processor speed
 
I suspect that the lack of competition means that Intel is simply optimizing for yield and money. They probably have quite a bit of margin to increase performance if any competition appears
 
@murgatroid99 there's no such thing as a fundamental limit, we just need to throw more money at it
 
@GodEmperorDune I assume you're joking
 
I suspect there are some fundamental limits, atoms don't get infinitely small. But I've no idea if we're close to them yet
 
@murgatroid99 so you... puts on shades... c what i did there?
 
8:32 PM
@MadScientist The primary limits, as I understand, are heat dissipation and crosstalk
You run into both of those before you get down to the point of single-atom-width connections

@AshleyNunn Ooh, which one?
 
@Unionhawk That's still a substantial amount of money. Congrats!
 
@AshleyNunn The social part might be useful as motivation. At least that is the reason I've seen mentioned.
Peer pressure can work wonders ;-)
