@arda hm, I should really look into some of those.
 
I think I used my 1000 book limit :(
 
user15026
Although I am kinda burned out on Stephenson, his books are huge
 
@Unionhawk that word is forever tainted and ruined by those yellow tic-tac creatures...

@Chippies that was my thought too
 
@arda (I upload everything that seems interesting and never kinda remove them)
 
12:03 AM
Good news - I figured out why GTA V was randomly stuttering every 5-10 seconds
 
So... Chuck Tingle didn't win a Hugo Award
Guess what happened next
 
apparently on some configurations, the gpu HD audio devices can cause stutter in some games...
 
@Chippies Honestly, they were funny in the first movie. And the second, though to a lesser extent.
> This erotic tale is 5,000 words of sizzling human on gay sentient award result action
Classic Chuck Tingle.
 
@Yuuki they were okay as part of the movie. They should have stayed a small part of a movie/franchise, but instead they were turned into a Frankenstein's monster by anyone and everyone, including facebook moms and kids of any age
there is nothing that can't be bought minion-themed
 
@Chippies yea
 
12:07 AM
@Chippies Speaking of, I found a Minions-themed store while I was on my trip. Can't remember if it was in China, Taiwan, or Hong Kong.
 
@Yuuki I'm not sure if I'm just very wrong or you're messing with me by implying that Hong Kong is not in China...
 
Man, just as I'm getting used to the new Medical Officer they bring back Dr. Crusher
Not that I'm complaining I guess
 
@twobugs but is Dr. Crusher a medical doctor?

Q: What is a "two-frame punish?"

The Pickle TicklerI often see phrases like "two-frame punish" when watching Super Smash Bros 4 tournaments. I often see it when people are edge guarding, and it some how prevents players from grabbing the edge. What does this mean?

 
@Chippies Well, given that it consists of a peninsula and some islands, it's technically not in China.
 
12:16 AM
@Chippies It's a Special Administrative Region. All the control of China, but at arms-length so capitalism!
 
@Chippies ...Yes? I'm not sure what you're getting at
 
@twobugs Nothing really, I don't even know what you're talking about. I'm mainly just 'getting at' the fact that one's a "medical officer" and the other is a "Doctor", which could mean literally anything
sorry for asking, I guess?

Juan CarlosSo yesterday i linked my credit card to my PSN account, I was going to pre-order FIFA 17, but when i went to checkout a error showed up. It said: THE PURCHASE CANNOT BE FINALIZED DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH YOUR BANK. CONTACT YOUR BANK FOR MORE DETAILS. So of course i tried several times and aswell w...

 
@Chippies Well I could have just said Ship's Doctor I guess. They were both the doctors on the Enterprise
 
I wonder why all medical doctors are referred to as "doctor", without having a word to specify that they are medical doctors
I wonder if that's only an English thing...
 
12:27 AM
Possibly! I just phrased it poorly
 
user15026
@Chippies yeah I liked them as comic relief but then they became this huge thing. The Minions movie was just bad.

Q: To make it harder to take over, should you attack a gym that you are a member of?

khaesonI am a member of a level 7 gym. There are 2 Lampras, 2 Snorlax, 1 Arcanine, 1 Vaporeon, and 1 Pidgey. The current prestige is 25,432 / 30,000. The Arcanine joined and left the prestige at about 20,500. I attacked (even though I'm already a member) to push the prestige to 25,432 so far. This sets ...

@GodEmperorDune I am never going to hear the end of that am I? :P

I read that as some food fell in the bush and I was confused
 
if I were mozilla I'd hate me
 
it doesn't matter, AVG wouldn't let it send the bug report; it blocked the upload, deleted the temp files, and quarantined the crash handler utility into the virus vault.
called it "generic virus behavior"
 
I think I haven't been using antiviruses for almost 2 years. I update everything, don't download from anywhere shady and pay for all softwares I use.

Q: GBA Emulator fire red game file

Remember the explosion yesterday that caused twitter youtube and facebook to be throttled? According to erdo it was a suicide bomb on a 12-14 yo kid :(
Totally unrelated: is questions about pokemon uranium considered unreleased?
 
user15026
@arda What is that?
 
@Ash A fan made free pokemon fangame which was taken down by nintendo
 
user15026
It was technically released, though, before the takedown, so technically I suppose it could stand?
 
I think it should be fair game as long as it's "not where can I download it"
 
@arda It wouldn't be considered 'unreleased' no, it's been available to players for ages, the game is (probably) still publicly available on various mirror sites (and likely a bit more widespread now thanks to the Streisand effect).
 
3:56 AM
@arda that's fuct if its true or not
 
@GodEmperorDune heard the same around twitter, it seems to be confirmed. :(
 
@GodEmperorDune yep. If it is true, shame on terrorists. If it is not, shame on Erdogan.
 
i mean i heard it on NPR but it was "turkish govt says X" and with all the purges and whatnot who knows how accurate the info they are releasing is
@arda either way, shame on erdo for creating a climate where they feel that terrorism is the only way to achieve their political goals
 
@GodEmperorDune from bbc turkish which says that erdogan said so

@arda eeeergh :(
 
like JFK said, "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
people have grievances, and suppressing those grievances doesn't make them disappear

太極者無極而生I have been to some gyms that have 2, 3, or even 7 or 8 Pokemons defending the gym. Say, even if there are 2 Pokemons, and one is CP 1700, and the other is CP 2000. My Pokemon is only CP 2200, so it is very difficult to beat them both, because they combine to have a CP of 3700. If I lose to th...

Ooh! Full size pipe organ
 
It just occurred to me that I now need to wait a whole year for new Bojack Horsemen
@fredley you did this to me. You tricked me.
i remember it like it was yesterday..
 
Don't try trapping us all in a flashback turtle, this isn't some kind of newfangled tv show
 
10:30 AM
@fredley was all like "You guys should watch Bojack Horseme since it's a super happy show which you won't need to spend a year wating for the next season for" and then I, the tool was all like "Well I trust Fredley, so I'll watch it!" and @TimStone was like "Good idea! Me too!" and @KevinvanderVelden was like "what", and @GodEmperorDune "Sorry @KevinvanderVelden, you gotta watch it now too" and @TimStone was like "YUP"
 
Still haven't watched it though
But now. LUNCH TIME

And then I was like "You should all read /r/BojackHorseman"
 
@KevinvanderVelden gah, still another hour for me until lunch

Forget the past?
Ah read it properly now
hmmmmmmm bugs are normal, that's why code review exists.
Don't stamp on yourself for making a mistake everyone does, you're not perfect, no one is
They wouldn't employ you if they didn't believe in you
 
10:56 AM
@Nzall all good programmers think their own code sucks. it's a thing, they've done studies.
 
I think everything I do sucks
 
its normal, don't let it get to you... if you were really writing bad code, someone higher up would definitely tell you

11:04 AM
@djsmiley2k you made a typo! BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN
 
@badp You can't even enter the shop during the vast majority of the game because talking to Miriam automatically earns you an item.
 
@GraceNote oh that's right
So you only have an opening in chapter, uh, 6
 
But technically speaking EN isn't useless - it still powers your Rainbow shot (which doesn't count for %) and also allows you to buy consumeables or buffs from townsfolk
And yeah - during Cocoa's run you can buy actual food consumeables.
 
Err, what are we talking about?
 
@GraceNote oh okay
I was thinking about that boss fight where you don't want to have any en if you can help it
 
11:08 AM
You'll find that that's not much of a problem in that fight in 0%
 
and I thought it was pretty strange of a mechanic but then I thought it was some perverse thing for 0%
I'm not doing 0% myself
but if you can spend en freely for buffs then it's not a thing
 
Do you have the UPRPRC edition of the game?
 
I don't think so
 
So no artbook / bonus content
 
Yeah
Is some stuff only unlocked by a 0% run?
The game also says some cgs are only in hard or better and I'm also not playing on hard, novice is presenting me with challenge aplenty
 
11:12 AM
One of the bonus features is a boss rush mode that, among other things, mimics the conditions in 0%. I'd've suggested you to run it in order to see what that fight is like in a 0% run because the reality is you don't have to worry about EN in that fight if you know how the fight works.
 
... challenge aplenty in places
 
All 0% clear offers is a handful of achievements
 
The difficulty curve is spotty as hell
 
@badp @GraceNote What game are you talking about?
 
Rabi Ribi
 
11:14 AM
@GraceNote I've tried boss rush yesterday, died to Lilith 28 minutes in
Twenty eight

Yowch
 
YouTube says true boss rush at the hardest difficulty is over 90 minutes
 
...this juicebox tastes like liquid gummi bears

I should probably ask about it

Q: How can I get a wired 'Afterglow' Xbox 360 controller to work on PC?

However, the 'Afterglow' controller doesn't work for some reason. This is a third-party branded...

 
@badp She only uses it after a certain point in her cycle usually more likely after depleting a certain amount of her HP (most typically after at least one cycle of her using the attack where she flies back and forth and drops pillar-exploding hearts). At that point it's just knowing how those projectiles move and dodging them appropriately - among other things don't be standing right near her at around that time.
It deals 207 damage total I believe, across 3 hits.
 
@fredley I hope we get to see more of the penguin in Season 4
 
@GraceNote distance doesn't seem to matter but I'll try paying more attention
 
Hi, how can I report an offensive username?
 
@badp You can dodge them but if you're right next to her in hammer range, you'll get hit immediately when the attack starts so you don't even get a chance to dodge.

SILLY @RedRiderX
 
I've been crushed too many times by overhyped games being poorly optimized on PC to buy them when they release

@fredley You used to be cool
 
Is it a direct sequel to the previous one?
I never finished that one
 
@KevinvanderVelden It takes place after it, yes
 
And ESPECIALLY DX:MD, after their horrible attempt at a preorder scheme, won't get my cash until I've seen at least some form of review
 
Not sure how relate th estory is
@Nzall Reviews have been out for a few days
and the reviews are positive
 
11:42 AM
@Wipqozn yeah, and I also know that those reviews have been based on a preview build that is not fully representative of the final game

According to the embargo email, the only footage allowed out is from an earlier preview build, early video reviews are using that.
 
@Wipqozn I did not finish the original deus ex, nor played it when it was released
 
So yeah, forgive me if I don't trust early reviews like that
Also, the game ready drivers are messing up TBs PC
 
11:44 AM
@KevinvanderVelden The original Deus Ex is fantastic, and holds up fairly well imo .sURE, THE GRAPHICS ARE CAPS LOCK crap, but everything else is fine. Played it for the first time before DE:HR came out
@Nzall Except that statement isn't saying what you said earlier
 
@Wipqozn then what does it say?
 
There's a difference between getting to review apreview build, and only being able to show gameplay footage from an earlier previebuild
 
@Wipqozn I'm aware, I did the same thing bit didn't finish it
 
@Nzall That reviewers have the full game, minus possibly any day 1 patch, but can only show gameplay that was present in an early preview build they already had.
@KevinvanderVelden Welll, FINISH IT AGAIN
 
@Nzall no, his pc was messed up with other things
For the moment let's consider that my PC is under the influence of an ancient curse and not trust its behavior.
 
11:46 AM
@Wipqozn "minus any day 1 patch" which means that they could theoretically pull a NMS and heavily redesign the game in that patch
No, I'm not going to throw money at it until I've seen reviews that handle the gameplay and visuals from the live game
 
@Nzall Except they're not going to redeisng the game to be worse, and major patches like that are rare
Day 1 patches are almost always bug fixs they didn't have time to finish before dics started shipping
 
Even if they're not going to substantially change the game, I'm not buying full priced games anymore due to budgetary concerns
 
@Nzall Well, how you spend your money is up to you, but your reasoning for doing so seems a bit silly.
@Nzall That makes sense, but that's not what you said before, and kinf of makes everything you said before kind of irrelevant
Sounds like you just wanted to complain about the preorder and poor PC ports
 
@Wipqozn I am not going to base the expenditure of quite large amounts of money on products that only have reviews from versions earlier than the version I'm going to play
 
@Nzall but you already said you're not going to buy it full price anyways, so all the comments about "waiting for live reviews" doesn't matter
 
11:50 AM
That's like saying that I'm going to buy this year's Peugeot based on the review from last year's model.
 
@Nzall That's not even remotely the same thing
That's a fairly ridiculous comparison to make
 
@Wipqozn Yes, that also. i've been burned quite enough by preordering games that turn out to have a shit port
 
Yes, waiting a couple days to make sure PC Performance is up to spec is a solid idea, but it's rare for a game to drastically change between the reviews and the final release. NMS is a very rare case.
 
so I'm not going to preorder video games, EXCEPT if the game has unaffiliated material either showing the final product or showing me that the final product will be worth my money, which hasn't happened all that much recently: Syndicate and Legion are the only 2 games I can really remember from the past year
 
Also not a good game and people who bought it twice should be ashamed of themselves CC @Sterno
 
@KevinvanderVelden NSM? Yes, @Sterno bought NMS twice and it was hilarious
 
@Wipqozn Yes, no sky man
 
No Sky Man No Man's Sky
 
@KevinvanderVelden no, sterno's money.
 
No Sky Man? No: No Man's Sky
 
11:56 AM
@KevinvanderVelden what was the reference
 
@Wipqozn you making a typo
 
oh nvm
