2:00 PM
that's the only compliment i feel like I can give it though
 
I actually like Windows 10
 
I jumped from 7 to 10. I think it's quite nice.
 
Yes
 
@Wipqozn I probably will buy it. Not sure though.
 
Getting rid of all the glass was good, and Windows finally feels modern
 
2:02 PM
@Arperum k, just remember if you don't that you hate @Yuuki
 
@Wipqozn nah, just you.
 
Trump praising Saddam is insane
We're approaching Maximum Trump
 
@5pike @RavenDreamer @Rapitor Are you planning to pick up MHG as well?
 
only ever use windows to play games though nowadays, so not gone in-depth on 10
 
That probably won't even ping him
 
2:05 PM
@Wipqozn I AM, THANKS FOR ASKING
 
everything else, Lubuntu
 
@twobugs You're @newbugs though
I'm asking everyone from the old crew
 
@sequoiad FWIW Just Cause 2 and Diablo III both work fine in Win 10
 
Two New Bugs
 
those are the only ones I've played extensively
 
2:07 PM
I'm taking 5 computer science module and 1 math module next semester. MAXIMUM CS.
 
@MadMAxJr too I think. cc monster hunter generations you buying?
 
hyperlight drifter works too, but I've only played a few minutes in Win 10
 
@MattE.Эллен I heard good things about this game.
 
I can't believe I have 1k rep on anime
79
A: What's the difference between the FMA and FMA Brotherhood series?

WipqoznThere are a large number of differences between the two Fullmetal Alchemist anime, with far too many to list; therefore, I'll only cover the major ones. To improve the flow of this answer, the following abbreviations will be used: FMAM = Fullmetal Alchemist (Manga) FMA03 = Fullmetal Alchemist 2...

Thanks full metal
 
@StrixVaria I have played many hours (it works in Ubuntu!) and I recommend it
 
2:08 PM
@Unionhawk And when you press the button, it just makes another button
 
I'm stuck on a boss, at the moment, but I'm sure I'll get there
It's got an art style I love and the story is intriguing
 
so, uh, the anime room sure has some images I don't want showing up on my work monitor
 
@Sterno Ooo, dynamic creation of developer UI
 
so much for finding krazer
 
2:12 PM
@fredley I don't even
How are so many people voting for this man
I can't help but feel the USA would be better off if they just named @Sterno Supreme Ruler. I feel like he'd do good job.
 
@Wipqozn disenfranchisement
 
It's a start.
 
Sterno wasn't room owner?
 
Apparently.
 
2:14 PM
@fredley No, he got removed in the great purge
He was replaced by @PrivatePansy and @GnomeSlice
 
cut the head of a hydra and two grow back in its place

Q: What are the requirements to have an acheivement pop?

Fredy31I'm wondering, in overwatch, is there some parameters that makes you unable to get acheivements? I know that in some games, You can't earn acheivements in private games. To know where I can and cannot get acheivements would be helpful to farm hard acheivments like 'The path is closed' and 'The ...

Q: Rage spell on healers?

Bhaskar VashishthWhat if I use rage spell on healers healing the queen? Will they heal more? I can test this but I dont want to waste any elixir, so if anybody know the answer, please let me know?

Q: Utility of duplicate champions?

DrakaSANStarting the game, I got Iron Man 1*, then at the end of the tutorial, I got a bonus 2* crystal, which gave me a 2* Iron Man. Despite having two Iron Man in my team, is there any utility to have duplicate champions? Like echanging one for another hero, or fusing them for a more powerful Iron Man?

 
@Wipqozn @PrivatePansy and @GnomeSlice is a good approximation of @Sterno
Their combined ages are about @Sterno
 
@Unionhawk :hamstare:
 
@Unionhawk Is @PrivatePansy younger than @GnomeSlice?
@PrivatePansy is what? 22ish?
 
2:16 PM
@Wipqozn Thereabout
 
@GnomeSlice told me he is older than me
 
@MattE.Эллен I've been playing the ps4 version of Diablo 3, actually prefer it
 
I think he just assumed I was 15 or something
@sequoiad It's great aside from the no seasons and hacking
 
@Wipqozn Yeah, basically 1 @Unionhawk
Or 0.5 @Sterno
 
@sequoiad fair enough. I haven't got a console :D
 
2:18 PM
@twobugs yeah no seasons is annoying, but control scheme just feels great
 
So even wiki excerpts shouldn't be copy/pasted?
 
Yeah
 
Okay, I just google 'em and this moon hunters one is cp'd from the official site
 
neat
 
Interesting how Trump's endorsement of Saddam is not his first, but it's the first widely reported one
It does feed into a narrative of The Media being out to get Old Donnie Boy
He's said it many times this election cycle, even
 
2:21 PM
my pc pretty much just plays WoW, LoL, Heroes of the Storm and Guild Wars 2 nowadays
 
wtf
I haven't been leaving games
 
@GnomeSlice have you been having mid-game disconnects?
 
STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM @GnomeSlice
3
 
No...
 
When do you leave?
 
2:23 PM
or sudden, high lagspikes?
 
As in, are you leaving on the results screen?
 
This warning stays on the scvreen during the game are you kidding
i left once the other day when my doorbell rang
 
I've heard mixed things about that counting
 
@twobugs You can leave before "capture the objective/stop the payload/escort the payload/defend objective A/etc" or after "victory/defeat" without a penalty
 
@Unionhawk Hm, okay
 
2:24 PM
@GnomeSlice so you left a game. That's probably why it's up. It will probably go away if you don't leave for a bit. Was it a competitive game?
 
I don't think @GnomeSlice is the kind of Demon who leaves games so I'm really curious why he's getting that
 
Although now I'm not certain that's right
 
Winning/losing has like such a small impact on your exp gain anyway, that was a smart move on Blizzard's part
But people still leave
 
i know if your latency goes up and down a lot in a game it can cause it
 
@sequoiad That's abit fuct
 
2:26 PM
lol there's a post on the forums titled "remove leaver penalty"
Let's see how far into the ground that's been downvoted
-211
excellent
 
leaver penalty needs to exist in one form or another
 
I miss Old Testament Bungie punishments
 
+63: "Don't leave then :) You only get it for being a repeat offender"
 
but it also needs to be able to account for instability in internet connections
 
You AFK in Halo Reach? All your 400 hours of progress is reset and you're publicly shamed
 
2:28 PM
Oh, no, you can leave before the "assemble" phase is over, or after "victory/defeat"
So not during setup
 
i've only left one game, and that was because the chat had gone super-toxic
 
I've had some disconnects and a couple sudden inactivity disconnects, but not seen the warning
 
@Unionhawk Yeah, that's true. So maybe @GnomeSlice really is a criminal...
 
Probably not
 
> "All she does is lie," says one, who said he had just read about Clinton sending herself Edible Arrangements to make other women in the secretary of state's office jealous.
 
2:31 PM
what
 
@Wipqozn Nope, never left a competitive game
 
who does that
nobody that's who
because that's stupid
 
This is a brilliant piece of Onion level satire
Except it's completely fucking real
Jimmy Kimmel shockingly on point, never thought I would say that
 
It's like a competition to see which country can fuck up democracy the most
 
The Man Show is fascinating because apparently it was only satire for Kimmel
For Adam Corola it was 100% serious
 
2:35 PM
I got a link to a pokemon go APK. I am doomed
 
@Arperum As much as I like Pokemon, a game that makes me travel to new places to play it is right out.
 
@StrixVaria gonna give it a try
 
@StrixVaria Some of the AR games are kinda cool in terms of providing incentives for stuff you already do, like move around during the day
Dunno how GO works
 
@twobugs A wild snorlax appears! You're literally trapped in your home.
 
@Wipqozn Depends. I have to find my 3ds first
 
2:41 PM
Man I wish NNID didn't work so damn stupidly
I guess I just have to do the data juggle again
 
@fredley Please stop walking through the Pokemons. You're scaring them.
 
a workmate has already walked into a cubicle wall playing that Pokemon GO at lunch
 
hmm
 
i'm playing the final fantasy mobile game, much safer
 
2:47 PM
@sequoiad I just downloaded that, looks interesting
I got kind of bored of Soda Dungeon
 
it's not bad
 
@sequoiad "the final fantasy mobile game" there are a lot of Final Fantasy games on mobile. Is this one like Ingress/Pokemon Go?
 
I think he means Brave Xevious, which just came out
I hope it's better than Record Keeper, that game seemed super grindy
 
Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius
 
Ah, I wasn't spelling it stupid enough
 
2:49 PM
@twobugs I had to look it up tbh :P
knew the second word started with a E and turned into a game of countdown
 
@twobugs I never leave but get many mid game DCs
At least I used to in beta
I have around 45$ atm. Get overwatch or wait a few more months for a sale?
 
@arda Did you ever get the leaver message?
I'm just curious about why @GnomeSlice is getting it now
 
Pokemon go uninstalled. If it used 10% battery while not active in 30 minuten it can fuck right off.
 
@Arperum Sounds about what I expected from a game like that.
 
@Arperum yeah there are a lot of complaints about it eating battery

Q: How to get Minecraft to work in my Oculus Rift

ThorsalI've recently got my Oculus Rift and one thing that got me excited during the period the Rift was developed was the prospect of playing Minecraft in VR. So I searched the internet on how to get the game running in VR which, so far, has been a bit disappointing. As far as I can tell, the Minecrift...

 
@Arperum Same thing happened to me with the match game
 
@arda can't imagine it dropping in price anytime soon, unlike Battleborn
that game went from £40 to £20 in like 2 weeks
 
3:17 PM
 
Part of what makes Overwatch so good is the clean, clear graphics.

Q: Are there spiders in Inside?

NzallI have quite severe arachnophobia. It is so severe that even though I've recently acquired Limbo on Steam through the temporary free event, I haven't played it yet because I saw a Youtuber play it and the spider in there creeped me out immensely as well, I've heard that Inside is a quite good ...

Q: How to catch pokemon

nickson104After catching the first pokemon you are left to catch pokemon as you wish with no further explanation on how best to catch these pokemon. After throwing around 10 balls and having them hit away/dodged and just rolling pathetically on the ground, I realised there must be a technique I missed. H...

 
Battleborn is so graphically busy it's hard to tell what is even happening.
 
@StrixVaria Your face is graphically busy
 
you could say the same of the division
 
3:19 PM
You could
 
well, okay, maybe @Unionhawk couldn't
 
Obviously that is not 100% of the reason Overwatch succeeded more than Battleborn, but it's just a very stark contrast if you look at the two side by side.
 
I thought Overwatch also was praised for being colourful and bright
 
@badp Battleborn is also colorful and bright.
 
@StrixVaria Annoyingly bright
 
3:23 PM
i enjoyed the Battleborn beta
the co-op PVE missions were cool, but there were nowhere near enough of them
 
I didn't want the change to make @badp cry.
 
@SaintWacko Buy the new monster hunter
 
@Wipqozn What system is it for?
 
3:26 PM
4DS
 
@SaintWacko 3DS
 
@Wipqozn Hmmm
 
@Wipqozn Lies, it's all 4DS now
 
Good morning bridge
 
Franklin got a week suspension?
How was I not pinged about this?

Q: What do these steps in Pokémon Go mean?

Mathias711I just started and finally caught my second Pokémon, as I noticed these stepson my close by Pokémon. What does it mean?

 
@Sterno Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
I wasn't pinged either!
 
You're all fired.
 
@Sterno Banned people can't ping
Maybe that's a bug we should fix
 
@Sterno Fixed
 
Thank God for mod abuse
3
 
3:34 PM
 
I wish mods could undelete messages in chat
 
@Wipqozn ikr
 
should probably make a feature request
reasoning: mod abuse
Think of all that untapped mod abuse
 
Mods should basically be given root-level write permissions to the database
That would solve all our problems
 
You guys have root-level write permissions to my heart.
7
 
3:35 PM
@fredley Yeah I agree
@Sterno d'aawwwwwww
 
@Wipqozn What weapons did you main in previous MonHun?
 
@twobugs The best ones
 
I typically soloed with GL or IG, but party play was fun with the HH
 
@Sterno your heart is now Friday
 
@Wipqozn Ah, just like me
 
3:36 PM
@Sterno Who's Franklin?
 
@twobugs and Hunting Horn, Charge Blade, and Bowguns.
Hunting Horn is my jam
 
@SaintWacko frank
 
GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT
 
Charge Blade is cool but I never bothered to learn it
 
3:37 PM
@arda Wait, what?
Why did he get a suspension?
What for?
 
changes username to DROP DATABASE
 
I also like GS and LS, but everyone gets upset if you use LS :P
 
@SaintWacko I'd imagine it's related to that meta.
 
Wiee, column drills are loud
 
He was prob banned in not bridge
 
That comic looks like garbage
 
@Sterno You/your face/your mom looks like garbage
 
@Sterno MODOK was always a weird villain
 
Wasn't that a TMNT VS Captain America crossover?
 
@fredley "Your mom" is so last month. It's "Your dad" now
 
3:44 PM
@Sterno Your dad is so last month
 
@Sterno urmom is urdad...?
@Derpy apparently its in this year's Spider-Gwen Annual
 
@Sterno Whoa. I missed some pretty major drama
 
Me too. Because no one pinged me. You monsters.
 
Guess what: the best drama is the drama nobody notices
 
so I thought that thing with the weird number thing on the review queue had gone away, as i wasnt having it happen later in the day yesterday, but it is happening again
 
3:46 PM
@fredley covert mod abuse best mod abuse
 
@GodEmperorDune urdad is the worst mod abuse
 
I need to get caught up on my comics so I can cut out all the crappy ones. Stupid Marvel relaunch. No idea what's good or not.
 
@Sterno maybe @Yuuki knows?
 
@Dragonrage I'm telling you it's intended behavior.
 
@Sterno i thought you had a script or something that let you know whenever shog responds to a meta. it's always good drama when shog gets involved.
 
3:48 PM
@Unionhawk it is very weird behavior.
 
> “you’re the editor of a newspaper in a haunted town, sending reporters to cover procedurally generated horror stories”.
 
@Sterno Hahaha
 
"Cthulu is a menace! Parker, get me some pictures!"
 
"EXCLUSIVE: Yog Sothoth shares his daily work-out regime!"
 
@fredley Remember that one time where you submitted a bug request that resulted in @TimStone taking one of your potential toys away?
That was a good day

Q: What invalidates "before they spread" events besides letting the incident spread?

JoshDMI have the challenge to "Defeat 6 Radroach infestations before they spread". Several times I have had Radroach incidents which spontaneously appear in a dweller-filled room (or due to a rush failure). The dwellers defeat the RadRoaches before another room is affected ("before it spreads"), but ...

 
10 Reasons Cthulhu is going to consume your soul. You'll never believe #8!
 
@Unionhawk that day was the worst
 
Yeah
But it was satisfying to see a tool of potential mod abuse get removed
Now I can change my avatar to WHATEVER I WANT and all @fredley can do about it is client-side scripting
 
@Unionhawk i thought they could still reset it to the tangram looking thing
 
Yeah, or identicon
But that's not his desired outcome

Bleh, Lunch hearthstone time sucked
 
@GnomeSlice you got a 6 month ban for name-calling? that sucks
 
4:17 PM
Two unlucky games, last game was against a guy who was just a jerk and I could have beat him but I misplayed
 
@GodEmperorDune Somebody was being an asshole to me in chat and I eventually got so fed up I told him to fuck off or something
turns out that doesn't make it okay
 
Hmm, do I need a drill press and/or an air compressor?
 
@GnomeSlice I got 30 minutes for mocking a fear of rectangles
 
@twobugs lol
 
(Fear of rectangles is literally not a thing)
 
4:18 PM
i got an hour for posting veep quotes
 
Anyway, I had this game where I was pissed because the guy had a dumb deck but just had good draws
Dumb as in his deck had contradictory elements that actively inhibit each other
 
@GnomeSlice i don't see why that game should be age-gated
 
But meh, card game
 
@GodEmperorDune Violence I guess
Rated M for violence and strong language
I prefer TV for titties and violence
 
4:20 PM
so what is the very good reason that lead to null and undefined two things that exist and are distinct in Javascript
 
But the jerk guy was intentionally taking maximum time limit each turn while not doing anything
 
@twobugs but is it a children's card game
 
Well you don't play it, so it's not for children
OH WHAAAAAAAT
cc @Wipqozn
 
@GnomeSlice i guess so
 
oh shiiit Furi is one of the free games this month on ps4
 
4:21 PM
@GnomeSlice Yup, this is a good month for PS+
 
@twobugs you have always been the worst what the refrancer
 
I missed last month
 
@badp undefined is obviously useful. null is just... I don't know, because JS has Java aspirations probably
 
Last month was bad
 
@badp because something that doesn't exist is underfinedand something that doesn't have a value, but does exist is null
 
4:22 PM
@badp I'm sorry I don't know your Bedstuck or whatever references!
 
@twobugs I wanted Gone Home
 
Meh, I found that game entirely unwhelming
 
@twobugs i warned you about @badp bro. I told you dawg
 
I appreciate that they tried something different, but it didn't work for me
The other game was this goofy NBA game with a STORY MODE!!!!!
 
@PrivatePansy oh I see, Javascript wanted to one-up Java and made it so you have to write if(x != null && x != undefined && ... )
 
4:24 PM
@GnomeSlice I installed it yesterday but haven't had a chance to try it yet.
 
or just cross your fingers and hope for the best, that's also an option
 
@badp I think you mean !==
 
@badp because null can be used to say "this var has been initialised but has no value"
 
4:25 PM
Actually it's a bad idea to compare against undefined. Use typeof x === 'undefined' instead
 
@PrivatePansy very true
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz brilliant
 
=== true
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh wow I need this
 
@PrivatePansy This has stopped being true in recent versions of Javascript
I'm pretty sure
 
4:26 PM
 
@badp -1, not even php
 
@GnomeSlice That game is beautiful.
 
@murgatroid99 undefined is still a variable on the global object, no?
 
@StrixVaria Yeah. But the videos they have up on the steam page right now are really shitty for some reason
 
4:27 PM
@PrivatePansy As of ES5, it is readonly
 
their teaser trailer was great
 
@GodEmperorDune yes, that's right, I've moved javascript and not even perl
 
could be worse. could be asp.net
 
@badp we will not stand for this atrocity of mod abusen't
 
@GnomeSlice Ugh, roguelike with permadeath, though.
I don't have the time or patience for games like that.
 
4:28 PM
I have not mod abuse, I have the best not mod abuse
 
@StrixVaria Urgh, I was hoping it would be more like an adventure game
 
and we'll make not me pay for it
 
Guess I'll wait for the PS4 edition and see how it comes along
 
Last May today, with @GnomeSlice
(Last Mei today is the alternate punchline)
WOW trying to SILENCE THE PEOPLE?
 
I probably won't get to play Furi until later this weekend with SGDQ running.
 
4:31 PM
idk, are you?
 
Now I can fully believe you leave all your games
 
@GnomeSlice That sounds pretty cool
I'm currently on a KSP kick
With 133 mods installed :D
 
Pretty much all of my PC gaming time is Overwatch recently.
 
PSL review says it's mediocre
 
@StrixVaria I'm sorry
is it terminal?
 
4:34 PM
@badp I'm not sure what you're apologizing for.
 
That's a shame
 
The game is pretty amazing.
 
I was really looking forward to this game
@StrixVaria My next hat is going to be an overwatch hat
 
@SaintWacko That's a lot. I said I'd get back into KSP after full release, but never did.
 
Trying to decide if I should just order the official one, or get Lids to embroider the logo on one with an orange bill
 
4:34 PM
@StrixVaria Something something Blizzard
 
The oranges might not match though, in fact they probably won't
 
@MBraedley Now's a better time to get back into it anyway
It's settled down from the full release
Bugs fixed
 
> I love this cap and wear it everytime I check my email to see if my account has been flagged
I can't tell from the picture if it's actually a flatbrim though
It looks like it is, but the other one isn't
actually yeah looks like it is
 
Too bad it's not a trucker hat.
 
Gross
well
the flat brim trucker hats are okay
I have one like that, although it's a different colour
 
4:39 PM
You should get one that says "clowns".

Q: Are there any common or "known" team compositions? Possible comps that pro teams use?

payAs I'm sure you've noticed, certain team compositions do much better than others, and some team-comps are downright useless for certain maps and game modes. I'm wondering if there are any established team comps or common comps that pro teams use that have proven effective?

 
4:54 PM
Wow, I never even hit 1GB a data a month
 
@Wipqozn I go over 1GB every month.
I also stream Spotify on the train whenever I'm not reading, though.
 
@StrixVaria I had no idea how much data I used until I checked right now, since my company just provides me with a phone
 
I'm already at data warning
A week into the cycle
 
I started wondering when my company phone is old technology and can't play pokemon go
like I wasn't even going to, but now that I can't it's like "I NEED TO DO THIS THING"
