12:04 AM
That sounds like a fun adventure :/
 
12:18 AM
@arda yeah he is
 
"Hi, Tech Support? Help, my kid is an asshole."
 
@ash for the sake of amusement are you one of said parents? With four children of my own I had to ask
 
user15026
@Ktash I mean there is general bunches of screaming in my house especially now that it is summer and kids are home more but this one just pissed me off because I had to suffer through it
 
user15026
@Ender hahahaha nope, I am as of yet childless. I live in the basement of a house, there are 2 parents and 2 kids upstairs
 
Ahhhh ok. Sorry you gotta deal with someone elses kids. That's a special kind of hell
 
user15026
12:25 AM
I don't mind it except for the screaming
 
I feel for you.
I live at the opposite end of my house from my ex-wife and her new boyfriend and they fights literally every day.
it used to be cathartic. now it's just annoying.
 
user15026
That would be maddening
 
I only have to deal for another couple months, then I can sell the house.
 
oh man dude that sucks
a buddy of mine lived with his now ex-wife for a while after they decided to call it quits... was a hellish time
so best of luck to you that the next few months go quickly for you sir!
 
yah. being underwater on a house sucks.
 
12:33 AM
@Ash There's also a "somebody else's parent's basement" joke in there somewhere... :p
hides under a rock
 
@Wipqozn on the plus side, I don't think any amount of therapy would have been as effective as watching her be herself in someone else's relationship.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn I lived with my ex wife for almost a year after we broke up. I don't recommend it as a thing.
 
user15026
@Unionhawk oh probably. :)
 
@KutuluMike I'm in an incredibly similar situation only with my soon to b x wife rather than a girlfriend. I sympathize.
 
Yeah all of these situations sound awful
2 parents and kids sounds the least awful
 
12:45 AM
marriage is kind of like skyrim. on the first day you're running around all excited about the brave new world you just discovered, but by year 5 you're organizing spoons on your kitchen table and looking for the console command that gets rid of your wife.
 
They're not essential...
So

Q: Can you get the "second-best" ending if you've already completed a neutral run, without needing a True Reset?

gatherer818Lots of spoilers ahead, no way to avoid them, so here's a warning that is hopefully long enough to fill up the preview from the main page AND make sure everyone sees it. So I'm specifically talking about the "Toriel - Family" ending, a.k.a. Flawed Pacifist. I know you have to befriend both Papy...

Rom Hacking

Proposed Q&A site for rom hacking enthusiasts, rom translators and retro game developers.

Currently in definition.

 
user15026
@Unionhawk yeah, the screaming isn't too bad, and they go to bed around now so the house is quiet now
 
Why is Twitch such a pile of guano?
 
@PrivatePansy Because you don't tell your mother you love her.
@Ash I always forget you were married
gotta say I'm strongly considering hopping back into sc2 again
I blame everyone but myself. Especially @fredley.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn well, it's been like... 4 years since that was a thing
 
I'm waiting for a few days at least since I think it might go on sale when the new patch launches, which I thin is this week?
oh a few nice games wednesday morning
Bomberman 64 and DK65 are both games I'd like to see
 
1:34 AM
DK65 for the Nintendo 65
 
bomberman hero was legit
I mean the internet suggest it sucks
BUT DAMN IT MY NOSTALGIA IS NOT CHANGING
 
The little known sequel to the Nintendo 64
 
yeah man
more like nintendo 60-your mom

Q: Cant mine orichalcum ore with cobalt pickaxe - Terraria

KarmaFor some reason i cant mine orichalcum with a cobalt pickaxe. Its obviously orichalcum due to its magenta/pink color, and i just made a cobalt pickaxe, so what could be happening?

 
Okay, the boss of the Ancient Cistern was AMAZING
Also dear everyone: It's 10pm, please stop setting off really loud fireworks. It's annoying me and spooking my cats :(

Q: Start a New Game?

BenI've played the game in the past, and didn't get very far, and being a new game, I was clunky at it, so I sort of ditched it for a little while. I've since come back to it, and I want to start over, but there's no option to restart the game? The only options on the main menu are: Continue Memo...

Q: Black Screen when looking at specific things in minecraft

EkansToArbokEvery-time i shoot something with a spectral arrow in Minecraft, my screen goes completely black but only when i'm looking at the thing i shot, if i look away my screen is normal again but when i try to look at the mob i shot then it goes black again. The same thing also happens in the map 'CUBE ...

 
user15026
2:20 AM
@twobugs I am talking to @worldengineer on the phone and someone is setting fireworks off outside his place so I get to have the fun of being startled without the fun of seeing the pretty
 
Yeah, it sucks :(
Plus these are the super loud ones that sound like cannons
 
user15026
That's highly unpleasant
 
2:44 AM
I am now on this side of Windows 10.
@Ash There's a place nearby that's doing a fireworks show.
One problem being that there's several massive trees between my house and there.
Huh, I was not aware that my installed software would be compatible in the jump from 7 to 10.
That's nice.
I was thinking that I'd have to reinstall everything.
 
I like W10 overall but there have been some bumps
 
user15026
@Yuuki So all the sound, none of the pretty?
 
@Ash Yep.
 
user15026
I like win10 more than I expected to
 
@twobugs Well, I'm going on a month-long trip to Taiwan + Hong Kong + Southeast China starting tomorrow, so I figured that I'd get in on the free upgrade before it expires.
 
user15026
2:56 AM
@Yuuki Have fun on your trip!
 
Ahahahaha
 
huh. apparently there's a big Microsoft Games Sale going on for the rest of the week.
 
@KutuluMike Yeah, I'm vaguely interested
 
3:23 AM
Quite sure Twitch is causing Firefox to leak memory
Closing the tab took half a GB of RAM off the process
 
Yeah, Twitch has crashed FF for me twice now :(
 
user15026
@KutuluMike None of the PC stuff is all that interesting to me :(
 
I looked over the list and I don't see any sales that interest me sadly
 
I don't have the last couple of AC games yet.
 
I have Syndicate, I can't get into it
My really cynical friend actually likes Unity, though. That's probably worth playing
 
3:35 AM
I don't have Unity yet, it looks like it'll be $15
This Deadpool game... is that the same game that came out years ago that got pulled off the shelves?
seems odd that they're charging $50.00 for a 3 year old game, there must be something new in it
 
I'm pretty sure it's the same game?
 
i have it for the PC... it was pretty decent.
 
Oh I guess they did "remasters" for Xbox 1/PS4
 
ah. so slightly better graphics.
 
@Ash You played the 3ds Kirby game yet? People are giving it pretty solid reviews
I feel like I'm in a bit of a conundrum with Monster Hunter. I only put about 100 hours into 4U so I still have a lot of G-Rank stuff left to do which WON'T be in Generations which comes out in two weeks...
Do I marathon 4U in the meantime? Do I try to clear out my 3DS backlog (which is huge)???
 
3:44 AM
Do what you want because a pirate is free.
And you are a pirate?
 
I'm not a pirate!
Well, either way I need to get my Nintendo account thing onto my new 3ds, which I think requires a system transfer but they've mentioned might screw up saves?
 
user15026
@twobugs I have been! It's so good.
 
user15026
@twobugs My saves were fine when I did mine if I remember right unless you mean a specific game
 
Awesome! I love Kirby, but I was really disappointed in the recent Wii U one
@Ash Hm, maybe I imagined reading that somewhere
 
user15026
@twobugs This one is very much just the good stuff of Kirby without any gimmicks that make stuff stupid. Like the robot suit actually makes sense as a thing.\
 
3:49 AM
Neat!
What bugged me about the Wii U one is it's basically just a retread of Canvas Curse, except worse
So like... yeah. 10/10 music, but everything else felt phoned in
 
Ok, the S'mores cookie dessert from Pizza Hut is good. FYI
 
user15026
@Ktash That sounds like it would be amazing
 
Giant chocolate chip cookie covered in chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers
 
user15026
@twobugs This one is really great. Like its a good mix of Kirby style puzzles and stuff. Some of the new abilities aren't my faves but there's some really neat ones too
 
user15026
@Ktash I need this in my face.
 
4:03 AM
@Ktash ^
 
user15026
I mean I have always liked giant cookies but this is giant cookie covered in my other favourite dessert bits.

Q: Fallout 3 Trouble on the Homefront trophy is glitch?

ZarathustraxI finished the quest, I don't have any DLC'S install and the trophy didn't pop up. Is it a glitch? or do I have to finish the quest in a specific way?

 
Ugh I think my stupid Best Buy credit card locked me out from their website again
I'm sure I have to call and complain now but this is the second time in as many months
They waived the fee last time but I wonder if they'll do it again
 
user15026
4:20 AM
Why do they keep locking yoy out?
 
Last time it was apparently because I missed a payment? So naturally... they lock you out of the web thing
This time I'm honestly not sure because I'm on time
I feel like a dolt, I usually am really good about bills but this just screwed me over
I guess all I can do tomorrow is call and hope for the best

8:10 AM
It's my last day of work!
 
@Ronan Before holiday or before being kicked out?
 
@Arperum Both!
Nah, I'm leaving to go back to @uni.
He misses me.
 
@Ronan I said nothing.
 
he's scared of the fireworks so my mom put on some dog videos for him ❤️ https://t.co/VTjYa6YIcK
 
@Ronan Don't forget to give him hug.

I get like 2 1/2 months holiday before I have to go back too!

@Edity Ok, we get it, it's fun. It's starting to get spammy now though.
@Ronan Fancy.
 
yeah, i shouldnt abuse it
 
@Arperum I'm going to sleep in so much!
 
8:20 AM
@Ronan Come to visit the rest of Europe before the UK locks down.
I cannot word today.
 
@Arperum I'm pretty sure holiday won't be affected by that.
 
I blame post-throwing shit live stress.
 
There is a glitch with the easter eggs!
 
@Ronan For now you don't need an extra pile of paperwork though.
 
@Arperum True.
Where should I go to maximise Bridge people?
 
8:23 AM
@Ronan Probably Netherlands. That contains @badp and @KevinvanderVelden and @FAE
And every now and then I end up over there.
 
@Arperum Noted.
 
@Ronan But if you take a train you can take a break in Belgium and meet up that way.
 
Hmm..
 
Last ten days of July I'm in Slovenia though :p
 
I definitely won't get round to doing anything by then.
 
8:37 AM
@Ronan if you do want to meet with FAE she needs quite a bit of forewarning. I hear she has a bad case of the real life
 
@badp Hehe, thanks for the heads up.
 
looks at @KevinvanderVelden puzzlingly
 
@badp ??
 
My first trip to the bridge
I'm from AU tho
 
Good old Kingdom of the East? :P
 
8:39 AM
@badp I guess so.
When I reach 200 rep, i will join you guys. :D
 
I think I have scored a critical what the refrance failure
 
wish there was a room that had all the easter eggs.
 
9:20 AM
The wise man once said: If you have an ester egg that is actually a full playable game, be sure to enable the egg in a room where nobody will get mad at all the user spamming the commands to play...

Q: Do your levels and stat records carry over between different region servers?

DarthPizzaOverwatch has different region servers, such as North America, EU (European Union), Asia, etc. If I'm level 50 with a competitive skill rating of 40 on the EU server, will my level, skill rating, and other stats that I've accumulated carry over if I start playing on the other region servers? Or ...

Manoj AgrawalI was travelling in bus when my phone fall and got broked. At that time I was having a laptop too. Is there any way to use only one clash of clan's account in two devices?

@KevinvanderVelden doodle
 
Did they fill it? :o
No :(
 
:/
If I marked myself available any days between 22nd and end of month I need to fix that btw
 
Ugh
 
I'll probably just send a new thing when they're available, I've filled in a few of my weekends by now as well
 
The 4th day of a 3 day weekend is always the worst
Since it's like Monday, except Tuesday
Though at least it's not Monday except actually Monday
 
11:33 AM
@Unionhawk Your face is monday.
 
I mean, it's still weekend for me
So I don't know what you guys are talking about
 
@KevinvanderVelden Bleh.
I've been working for two days in a row now.
 
you worked on Sunday?
 
@badp It's tuesday today? This is the second day I'm working.
 
oh ok
@Arperum eh do you have some national holidays between now and christmas?
because we don't
nothing between June and December 24th, that's insane

Q: How to deal with hyper control warrior as an aggressive deck

Seth ChalmersIn my most recent pursuit of getting lvl 60 in each class and working on golden heroes for each class, I find it is fastest to level up and get quick wins using hyper aggressive strategies (rush rogue, face hunter, zoo, etc.). Even though the strategy of aggro decks seems easy (hit face and som...

 
@Edity Welcome dude!
The clowning has begun
 
11:56 AM
@badp July 21st, august 15th, november 1st and 11th.
We do not have december 24th, we have december 25th only.
And since that's a sunday this year, we get the day off at some other time (in my case july 22nd this year)
 
Oh wow, a cc: @fredley that's about a great adult cartoon series
 
I like to keep you on your toes
I love how people interpret that as "OMG HOUR EPISODES?"
 
@Unionhawk This is the worst thing @fredley has ever done
 
12:04 PM
and it's like "maybe, but, probably not"
@twobugs I don't think this is a date cancellation as much as it is a "this date was never actually real"
 
I wonder if I can convince everyone to end this all day meeting an hour early so I can get home in time for that potential blinded run of castlevania: your mom edition
 
All we know for certain is that the wait is 30 MINUTES LONGER
 
@Unionhawk Yeah, the previous date was clearly made up
 
@Wipqozn Bwuh?
 
wait is there a donation for romscout or whoever to run it blind?
 
12:07 PM
Oh, AGDQ
I thought you meant there was a new Castlevania or something
Ugh someone started another pot of coffee but they didn't heat the old pot
So I have lukewarm (but not cold, thankfully) coffee
Also Juno has successfully entered Jupiter's orbit! \o/
 
lukewarm coffee is almost worse than cold coffee
 
@Unionhawk :(
 
@Wipqozn blindfolded SoTN run is funded
Happening ~2:00 EDT so whatever WST (wipqozn standard time)
 
@Unionhawk Awesome
@Unionhawk yeah, that probably just means someone got stuck in traffic
To be honest when I saw that tweet I just assumed they were fucking with everyone
 
Also I was using my Surface to watch some Star Trek on Netflix. Season 1 of TNG is very silly so far but not terrible
 
12:10 PM
Like how @fredley, @Sterno and I like to troll people with Friday links
 
Rick and Morty is awesome
 
@twobugs Season 1 is so goofy. Season 3 is where TNG gets really good.
 
@Wipqozn Some website posted that it's confirmed 26th, but the link is dead and there's no other real source
so
yeah
no
 
@Wipqozn That's what I've heard, but I'm not one of the criminals who just starts a series in the middle
Those people should be locked up
 
and that's why he won't watch what few rick and morty episodes he can on Adult Swim
all like 3 of them
 
12:14 PM
muh canon
I should stream again, probably tomorrow night cause raiding tonight
I was just playing a lot of Skyward Sword over the weekend (and family stuff). Fun game. Gives me hope for the new Zelda
It does annoy me that the whole item upgrade system seems undercut by the fact that many of the upgrades to even early game items require mid-game materials
 
Q:
What building has the most stories?

A:

A Library
"riddles" like that are why I'm always so tempted to reply to our weekly company riddle with that
 
Then who was phone?
 
@Wipqozn Okay, that's dumb but it's not quite as bad as the XKCD example :P
 
That's true
 
12:24 PM
I disagree, that's actually a good riddle
 
It could be worse, it could just always be "there are three words in the english language that <irrelevant condition>, <misleading two words> are two, what's the third?"
 
I'd say the most stories one is a good riddle because there's no misleading, it's just a case of dropping assumptions you make
 
Oh, that one's fine
I thought you were saying xkcd was a good one
 
The ones that really bug me are the 'lateral thinking' puzzles
 
@Unionhawk See, I must not understand the riddle, because the "<misleading two words> are two" part seems blatantly false to me.
 
12:27 PM
Full stop
 
There are some good ones but there are ones where it's just 'guess shit randomly until you figure out what the author was thinking'
 
Why is "lateral thinking" a term
@Sterno RIGHT?
It's like "well no, those are not two in your actual condition you idiot"
 
Maybe, MAYBE, if it was "<misleading two words> are two words". But without "words" on it, there's no context switch, which is just dickholeness
But even then, when you say "What is the third?", then you've changed context again.
Basically, I support cutting off his hand.
Perhaps I should ask a question on Arqade
(and get it simultaneously closed for being about a "medical problem" and "primarily opinion-based")
 
\o/
 
12:31 PM
@Sterno And probably "not a problem you are facing" by someone who is fixated on the word "you"
 
You can't actually change FOV in Overwatch, can you?
 
I think you can
Pretty sure
 
Well then I'm playing at a handicap if I don't max it, aren't I?
 
I mean
It's a preference thing, just like how some counter strike pros insist on playing on 4:3 monitors
But kind of
 
@Sterno Sort of, but there's also the question of your projectile vomit obscuring your view of the screen is it's own handicap or not
 
12:35 PM
I'll have to try cranking it up tonight
assuming I didn't do that right when I started the game and just not remember
 
I think it defaults you to a reasonable value
 
A reddit post from 8 months ago says max value is default
HRM
 
@Arperum we also don't have Dec 24th here
@fredley pls
 
@badp You don't? You just skip from Dec 23rd to Dec 25th?
 
@twobugs we have several Dec 23rds
as you know time in Europe flows turnsways
 
12:45 PM
The EU passed a law requiring every day to be December 23rd in 2017, that's the real reason the UK left
 
their loss
December 23rd 2017 is a Saturday
weekend... forever
 
saturday forever: the sequel to friday forever
 
CHRISTMAS
IS COMING
but with festive decorations and santa hats in the peak of summer
let me tell you, at the 340th December 23rd people will be relieved that there is no actual December 25th
 
goddamit sql.
query results in 60 result, query with extra "where X IN (list)" gives 59 results, not in gives none.
Where is the missing one.
 
x is null?
 
12:56 PM
@TimStone Nope.
 
@Arperum Huh, I dunno then. That's the only case where that would make sense
 
@TimStone Yup. I found the offending value. (comparing 60 values is doable)
 
Man some of these people I'm helping on support are really worrying
 
But I don't understand why it's not in the "WHERE X not IN (list)" results
 
1:03 PM
@badp reminded me of summerween
 
I totally get average people not knowing much about computers. That's fine and I don't hold that against people, everyone has to start somewhere
But if you're an engineering graduate student at a technical university...
 
Fun fact: today is kinda summerween- 3 days after Ramadan, kids go around and ask for candy
 
This guy has very poor English as well, his emails are nearly incomprehensible
I'm doing my best to help him but there are like two language barriers in place here
He's not a bad guy by any means

Q: Help what must I do

gregoryWhat must I do after downloading I extract them in winrar and when I go to xbox 360 extract it does not want to extract it says "will be skipped .already in but there is no files in my destination

 
@Lazers2.0 I'm pretty sure this is a piracy question, but there are so many other problems I don't think we need to witchhunt yet
 
1:17 PM
I mean obviously. Extracting things to the xbox 360?
 
I wonder what else I should put on my watch list before killing my Netflix sub
Ah, Juno won't start doing science proper until it enters a closer orbit in October. Still, they did a great job on the initial insertion
 
+1, but fwiw it can be anything (but likely piracy or development, in both cases off topic), so current close of unclear is best reason atm
 
@TimStone it was a null value in the list I was comparing against, not in (list containing NULL) always returns false apparently.
 
Ahhhh, yes
 
@Arperum Yeah, SQL comparisons with NULL are just false. It's weird.
 
1:31 PM
@Ronan NaN rules
NaN != NaN, etc.
 
wat
What do you mean that's an ambiguous column name
 
So now that I can properly conclude that there is bad stuff in our dataset (which is only a part of the actual dataset) I have to figure out a way to handle in the case I run into said bad data.
 
Wow, China built a Radio telescope with a 1-mile circumference
 
@Ronan It's actually even better than that, in Postgres for example SELECT 1 NOT IN (2, null) returns null, not true or false. Yay tristate!
 
@badp Not a number not not a number?
@twobugs ~255m radius
Not bad
 
1:43 PM
@Arperum send an SMS to the person who supplied the data
For each bit of data that is bad
Queue them up to run at 3am so you don't bother customers
 
1:55 PM
@KevinvanderVelden That's a very good idea
It would quickly convince users to have good input :)

Q: What is the rationale for all comparisons returning false for IEEE754 NaN values?

starblueWhy do comparisons of NaN values behave differently from all other values? That is, all comparisons with the operators ==, <=, >=, <, > where one or both values is NaN returns false, contrary to the behaviour of all other values. I suppose this simplifies numerical computations in some way, but ...
