@djsmiley2k Wait, if it's Infinite Warfare, why is it initialized as FW?

Q: How does the game determine where a Resonator is deployed?

54DWhen I deploy Resonators, they usually appear at locations similar to other Resonators -- they are far from the Portal. However, sometimes, my Resonators appear at a place that is not my current location, and they are close to the Portal, meaning all of them can be easily destroyed in a few blows...

 
someone in that game lost 0 - 23

console ports
some of them are like
bwoah rebindable keys
 
@badp Some of them are like that but also have literally insane default bindings.
 
12:10 AM
...I have a regular controller though and I can't bind anything to the triggers or clicking the stick in and that doesn't leave me with 10 buttons
 
(coughcoughNightsOfAzurecoughcough)
 
oh I know
I'll reuse the keyboard bindings ._.
Cancel with Ctrl
no okay
 
something tells me this I'm still going to be fine with a controller (fredley joins room) config. some-meow.

Oh wow I had no idea there was so much depth to the Witness
I already thought it had a lot of layers and people keep blowing my mind bringing up new things
I'm glad I tapped out at the endgame
I don't think I have the endurance for all of that.
 
didn't you say you'd finished
 
user15026
If you have a bag of mystery day old donuts and you throw one in the microwave to warm it slightly because they have been in your fridge so they're cold, check if it is filled before you bite into it, otherwise you will be sad because the cream/pudding filling will be like lava. It was unfortunate.
 
1:00 AM
ow ow ow
 
user15026
My face is sad now
 
@badp Yep completed the endgame
But in a way that's only the beginning.
 
well CLEARLY IT WAS AN INADEQUATE COMPLETION

When it comes to games, there is no doubt.
I've only really started finishing games this past year or so.
Which is weird now that I have more games then ever.
 
@Ash i generally have that problem with jam donuts, and i know they are jam donuts when i heat them up and go to eat them
but at least the burns taste sweet
@RedRiderX backlogs are good
 
@Memor-X I guess?
Also you've reminded me of this:
 
@Unionhawk Wait they're making another ID system?
 
yes
You can login with your NNID and create a userid and password
Idk

I seriously still can't believe Serena Williams is engaged to a Reddit co-founder.

I seriously can't believe you A) know that B) care
 
@Sterno It popped up on front page again.
 
Ahh, the front page of reddit. Nowhere else is there a more wretched hive of scum and villainry
 
@Sterno I dunno, there's SFF.

@Unionhawk I'm missing where you actually do this when logged into your nnid
 
@Unionhawk I like the top comment
"So you can now preorder your nicknames.

Preordering has transcended its own meta-ness."
 
@Ash it's like account info->userid
It'll ask you to create a password
Then it'll ask you for your desired userid
 
Yeah I've had my userid for ages
 
On the plus side, "Yuuki" isn't taken.
On the minus side, minimum 6 characters.
 
because of the whole "we're killing club nintendo so here's my nintendo instead" thing

Q: How to set up a complex minecraft command

ObiKemnebiI am a total noob at commands. I can do really simple ones like fill-replace stone to air in a specific area, but I can't figure out how to set up the code for things which require more complex logic or combined arguments. At the moment I'm trying to set up a command block to pick a random jungle...

@Unionhawk and what about you're previous ID?
 
user15026
What previous ID?
 
@Ash Previous Nintendo Network IDs like what you create with the 3DS when you sign up

I mean I can file shit and get the unattendence lower but I will not. I had enough of turkish bullshit.
Yyup, 10.5 is the limit
 
@Avery don't lose a whole year to turkish bullshit
don't go all-in on plan USA
 
@badp im fucking tired of this bullshit
even the harrassments today got me to suicidal levels and I hardly gained control back.
i cant stand this much longer.
Even if plan usa doesnt work out and I come back this will still happen: failing due to unattendance.

On the bright side, you could just go "Well, they're not letting me pass anyway, why should I go?"
 
Yeah. Even before I learned that I had a rant to mom saying that I'm starting to lose control and can't promise safety of me mentally or legally if I kept going, because of harassment stff

Q: Can Rabbits really only drop Rabbit's Foot when killed by the player in Minecraft?

On one hate i hate collegeboard for only allowing a limited subset of calculators, on another am thankful to them for allowing calculators.
/me just spent a fuckton on a ti83+
 
Aah the ti83+
 
12:29 PM
weren't you... kind of dropping out
 
One of my teachers once made the mistake that if someone made a program to calculate an algorithm we could use it
10 minutes later
 
I don't know if I had a ti83+ or a ti84+, either way, it's been 10+ years ago.
 
"Oh, well I guess if you're willing to share it it's ok"
 
@KevinvanderVelden Lol.We hadteachers wiping its memory since they got onto the part where students had stuffed a shitton of data in it.
 
@Arperum black and rounded square sides or some random colour and really rounded sides?
 
12:32 PM
That did miss the part where I found out how to make a program survive a hard reset.
 
@Arperum no one ever wiped ours
 
@Arperum Impressive. How did you managed that? I thought the calculators were exam certified
At least our TI-84's were
 
@badp we'll get James Cameron on it
 
@badp drop out on turkey probably
doesnt mean I cant take the sat though
 
He's already raised The Bar
 
12:36 PM
@Arperum I'm genuinely curious about that as well.
 
@Unionhawk that direction of movement of the bar is the opposite of what would be good.

Q: Will Hitman Season 2 come out on the same disk Season 1 came on?

The Writer of The BasketI just recently bought Hitman: The Steelbook Edition and was wondering if I'd need to purchase another disk for season 2 when it comes out or will the same game be updated with new missons and contracts when season 2 does indeed come up?

 
No idea why they are still certified but not complaining
 
I mean, ours were all sent to have them checked and had a sticker plastered on it, but that's to make sure the calculator is actually a TI-84, and not a piece of plastic that happens to look like one
 
12:39 PM
@Nzall You should have asked good 10 years ago.
 
@Arperum They're still used for the A levels here
 
Or as hard reset as was done, might not have been a full hard reset. I know it survived the two reset methods that were used, beating the first one was trivial and was figured out rather fast by everyone, the second one was not. And I did not tell the stupid fucks how to do it. Nor can I remember what I did.
 
All kinds of calculators are banned in high schools in turkey
i was initially surprised to hear theyre being actively used abroad
 
@Avery At this point hearing that writing down an answer on an exam was banned wouldn't even surprise me.
 
It's also near impossible to find TI calcs here because of that
took me tons of searching and stuff to find one that wasn't sold for full price
 
12:52 PM
all programmable calculators are banned in pretty much all levels of italian education
with non-programmable graphing calculators being right on the edge
this or something very close to it was what I used for high school and university
not programmable, but it does newton's method for radix finding, 3rd grade polynomial radixes, 3×3 linear systems, 3×3 matrix determinants/inversion, and it supports a suspiciously large portion of the alphabet...
plus expression recall...
and it helps me not write 2+3 = 6

even the simple 4 thingy calculators would help turkish students a lot
We do EVERYTHING in mind
 
like it's 1749
except in 1749 you'd use logarithm tables
 
and well, does it pay off? IDK. I took an SAT test yesterday with zero preparation and got like %80 of stuff correct.
 
Ooh! Ask to be allowed to have logarithm table stuff

Q: My command-block augmented sword isn't freezing players when they're hit!

JaetI've made a sword that gives slowness 10 for 2 seconds to any player that is hit by it. It used to worked, but now seems to not work for some reason. Here is an outline of the commands: There are two scoreboards, dmgDFS which is damage taken and dmgTFS which is damage dealt. The commands go like...

 
yuss, got the approval letter from dad; that basically means that I can apply for passport now.
(apparently to apply for passport as a minor in turkey you need notary approved stuff by both your parents, the original copy, not fax or whatever (also original copy of court orders if your parents are divorced, which they are, and holy hell finding the original of that was hard). Had to ask dad to literally send it via post)
also fucking hell I need to bring my old style ID, my new ID and my temporary ID to apply for passport. Spaghetti laws.
 
@Avery When I hear stuff like that, I can think of 2 things: either your government hasn't had enough complaints about the spaghetti law yet, or they don't want to change them because they deliberately want to make it hard to go somewhere else.
 
@Avery no that's italy
 
1:10 PM
and temp ID expires on first of march and getting new one takes hours so ugh

Really bad (But I somehow can't stop reading)
Goddamnit reddit let me work

map of places I can go and apply for passport are seen above. Star is where my house is. All the closest ones have at least a month of backlog.
 
iOS's positioning system is really weird
 
@PrivatePansy don't even get me started on ios
safari's css stuff is hell. absolute hell.
os is locked down
you can't even update apps apparently. It redownloads them and swaps them.
 
@Avery I'm writing native, and it makes me wish I have CSS
 
I've seen a good colleague of mine lose years of life by the second swearing at xcode's autolayout system
and a bunch of assorted deities :flag_it:
 
@PrivatePansy Welcome to hell. I've been through that. cc @fredley
 
1:20 PM
@PrivatePansy oooh ouch
I'm writing an app using nativescript atm which isn't much better, but it's still terrible, in terms of customization, but its better than xcode.
 
You thought defining a radial gradient in CSS was bad? Wait till you see the iOS version!
First you define a CGGradient using a color space, an array of UIColors which you convert to CGColors which you convert to a CFArray, which is an array of floats, and finally an array of Floats (even though Swift default to Double for float point numbers)
 
(fun fact: as I do not have a mac device I can't even test the code on ios. I can't rent a mac device online and use emulator as emulator doesn't support camera emulation (it reports that there's no camera). It's a shoot and miss at this point.)
 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA continues
 
@PrivatePansy but that only gets you a bunch of colours surely
 
Then you create a CGContext to draw in using a UIGraphicsImageRenderer. Using CGContext.drawRadialGradient, which takes in 6 parameters, the last of which is an OptionSet, you actually draw the damn gradient
And this is the simplified version with iOS 10 and Swift 3
 
1:26 PM
just port jQuery to objective C
it's perfect and does all the things. except maybe when a .find() on a select with some 80 options takes half a second.
 
In previous version you create the context by calling a global function to begin the context, another global function to get the top drawing context, and finally call a third global function to close the context after drawing to avoid memory leaks
 
@Arperum BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
 
@badp Protip: You can use val directly on the select element to get and set the value
Also, Apple's documentation is amazingly bad
 
nah this is with loudev.com + ancient jquery
going from 1.7.2 to 1.9.1 made it half as slow and pretty much usable.
 
I have had to use the wayback machine more than once on the official API documentation because of broken links
The page on AVAudioPlayer which I need to find out which formats are supported is currently broken
And all of the Stack Overflow answers point to the same link
The coordinate system is inverted between Core Graphics and UIKit on iOS
 
1:31 PM
my js coworkers are yelling me to change that library's source code so it doesn't jQuery as much but I'm not sure this.$selectionUl.find('.ms-optgroup-label').hide(); is that much slower than $(this.$selectionUl[0].querySelectorAll('.ms-optgroup-label')).hide()
 
@badp The two does different things unless there is only one instance of whatever $selectionUI is on the page
 
I know that I'm adding a [0]. There SHOULD be only one.
from my extremely limited experience.
 
And yes, there shouldn't be much performance difference.
Unless you're running that a code a ton of time in a tight loop, which you probably aren't
 
why does compiling for android this much ram agghhhhhh

Let's flip the coordinates when we create a new platform for developers! There's absolutely no way this will confuse people!
And yes, it's 2017 and that image is still being used in the official documentations
 
@badp It's using gradle daemon so yeah, it's keeping tons of shit in ram until I close it to increase subsequent build speeds, but holy hell 11gb of ram usage wtf
 
Also, god help me but I'm thinking of writing my own dependency injection framework in Swift
(We're not allowed to use any external libraries in this assignment)

1:43 PM
@PrivatePansy Nope, do not want. There's a reason that the top left was always (0, 0), and even though that particular reason doesn't exist anymore, changing the de-facto standard is not a good idea.
