6:00 PM
yeah i don't know if any of the memes are still going
 
@StrixVaria doesn't @badp do it all the time? ...Or was that someone else?
 
@GnomeSlice got a new phone with better autocorrect
 
@badp kind of does whatever he wants all the time
 
actually @Wipqozn is still to blame so that is accurate
 
@GodEmperorDune well I'm finding these hilarious... well some of them at least
 
6:01 PM
@GodEmperorDune make @GnomePhone great again
 
@Avery @PhoneSlice
 
@BlueBarren all the cool kids used @gnomephone
 
@BlueBarren actually I believe gnomephone is more popular
 
@phoneslice was better IMO but came around too late after we standardized on @gnomephone
 
@PhoneSlice has better flow
@GodEmperorDune and as we all know temporary solutions always end up being permanent, just look at JavaScript
 
6:03 PM
@StrixVaria why did I lose mine then?
Not that I ever used any of the privs
 
@Yuuki also for when you post food pictures
 
I assumed that was jokes lol
 
@KevinvanderVelden And in case of this pear, sometimes both!
 
man that was a great use of my day
scrolling through arqade memes
now back to actual work
 
@GnomeSlice Not as a joke.
 
6:07 PM
@BlueBarren why not both
 
Presumably.
 
@StrixVaria iirc it was as a joke
but don't take my word on it

Q: Is there a way to control Tyrogue's evolution?

yoozer8Tyrogue, like Eevee, can evolve into different Pokémon. It's possible to control which evolution Eevee turns into. Is there a similar method for Tyrogue?

Q: How to display minecraft server status and other info into HTML website?

Zeus ZdravkovOk, pretty easy: go to a mc server list website and get dynamic banner. No. Here we are talking for something much harder. My website is using double asymetric SSL certificate (https) and most of the minecraft related websites (and at all most of the website, even SO) don't have SSL. The problem?...

 
I've been not in this room a lot over the past few months.
 
@StrixVaria you missed the part where we resumed and the world failed to end
 
6:08 PM
@Avery because sometimes I like people to think I actually know what I'm doing here
 
@badp The world was never ending; it just got to be excessive.
 
@GnomeSlice this is a good reason
 
I mean I've only been here like 6 years
 
Used occasionally as a joke it was fine. But it got to the point where it was almost being spammed into the chat.
 
Was it so that I couldn't chat during timeouts

@KevinvanderVelden so i can fire all my male employees and hire women for 6 cents less an hour?
Jan 23 at 19:15, by GnomeSlice
awesome sign me up
 
one thing I did do was clear stars on removal messages, lol
 
He was removed later IIRC
 
right, here
 
@Avery what's the relevance of the last two? xD
 
@BlueBarren it was why he was removed on that time
 
6:10 PM
@GnomeSlice Poor removal mages :( getting all their stars taken away.
 
Jan 29 at 16:13, by GnomeSlice
asmr is a hoax invented by the Chinese
 
Erf, sometimes autocorrect work, sometimes it donut
4
 
@Avery these are great
@GnomeSlice you're hilarious!
 
@Avery how many "hoax invented by the Chinese" messages do we have in here
 
@GnomeSlice hue
 
6:10 PM
i thought it was funny
 
 
okay so two of them are me
hue
 
5, one seriously, 4 memetically, 2 by you
 
@GnomeSlice 40% of them are you
 
Is that a problem or something
 
6:12 PM
idk
 
why are you sharing it then
 
You should probably repent or something
 
@GnomeSlice yes. ASMR is real.
 
@GnomeSlice i dunno, ask my 1.5 million people crowd size
 
6:12 PM
@GnomeSlice "Hoax invented by the Chinese" messages are hoaxes invented by the Chinese to discredit hoaxes by the Chinese.
4
 
@Avery i know it is
 
@GnomeSlice well I tried to say that memetically but failed
 
@GnomeSlice is a hoax invented by the Chinese
8
 
I spent like last 6 hours studying so meh, my brain is fried
 
Seriously speaking, I don't think anyone here has used that line seriously. Or is there someone who has?
 
6:13 PM
@GnomeSlice we decided to remove you for good. The fact you weren't using your privileges is a good a reason for this.
 
now @uni has as many hoax messages as @GnomeSlice, clearly @uni should lose RO too
 
@Yuuki your mom was invented by the chinese... or possibly your dad, I 'unno
 
@Unionhawk darn, I was going to do that one
 
Now that you know this does it make it better for you?
 
@badp Like I said I did clear some stars on unhelpful messages but you're the boss I guess
 
6:13 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Both! And me!
 
I don't really care about the privs
 
@KevinvanderVelden That sounds weird.
 
just feels like you guys still don't trust me is all
 
I come from a long line of hoaxes invented by the Chinese.
 
I've been here longer than most
 
6:14 PM
@Yuuki aah both, also an option!
 
not that's that automatically makes one eligible
 
You know, we're sitting at 11 ROs right now and that empty space on the 3x4 table is really bothering me.
 
@Yuuki so you want to remove 2 ROs?
 
@Yuuki 6 of those are mods btw
 
room owners have light moderation capabilities and there's very rarely real occasion to use them because they're almost always several mods in here
there's
 
6:15 PM
Yep pretty much
 
@GodEmperorDune ... It's a 3x4 table. That'd be either add 1 or remove 3.
In any case, I need to figure another bimonthly event now that Movie Night is temporarily dead.
 
The room is also rarely aflame enough to warrant action
 
@Yuuki that scales to screen size, its rows are 2 wide for me
 
@Yuuki because of rabb.it?
 
@GodEmperorDune he's in info/control
 
6:18 PM
besides, room ownership is a hoax created by the chinese
 
It says you can share anything
 
That doesn't mean it's correct
 
Iirc we had trouble with Google play and rabbit most recently
 
@GnomeSlice Except netflix and now google play don't work at all.
 
We might be able to do a workaround with YouTube
 
6:20 PM
uuuuuuu 2:24 @GodEmperorDune
@KevinvanderVelden It's their official frontpage, I would hope it's correct
 
Everything is about trump with you people
 
@GnomeSlice he's kinda ruining our lives... just saying
 
no comment
 
Naah, he's just currently the go to person when discussing dishonesty or bigotry
 
6:23 PM
@GnomeSlice We didn't talk about Obama because he was a cool dude doing a fine job.
We constantly think about Trump because he is actively working to destroy our planet and other things we hold dear.
 
plus he is always doing something in the news
there were weeks in the obama administration where he didn't make the news at all
but trump blocks everything else out
like the assassination of a world leader's brother by someone who thought they were doing a prank for a reality show
 
nice try, I'm not engaging
 
@GodEmperorDune I wouldn't really call north korea a big player in the world
 
you guys all hate me now because i challenge some of the anti trump conspiracy stuff
 
I mean, I don't think he's made the front-page news today.
 
6:25 PM
i'm fine to drop it, i wasn't trying to make you engage, my apologies
 
@GodEmperorDune wait what really
@GnomeSlice that's simply not true
 
@GnomeSlice Uh, no.
 
some of you do
I'm not stupid
 
1) no, 2) what anti trump conspiracy stuff? :o
 
The only person I hate in this room is @Wipqozn
 
6:25 PM
@GnomeSlice everyone hates someone
 
like half of what gets posted in here
 
Kim Jong-nam (Chosŏn'gŭl: 김정남; Hancha: 金正男, Korean pronunciation: [kim.dzʌŋ.nam] or [kim] [tsʌŋ.nam]; 10 June 1970 – 13 February 2017) was the eldest son of Kim Jong-il, leader of North Korea. From roughly 1994 to 2001, he was considered the heir apparent to his father. In May 2001, following a failed attempt to visit Tokyo Disneyland by entering Japan with a fake passport, he was thought to have fallen out of favour with his father. Kim was exiled from North Korea around 2003, becoming an occasional critic of his family's regime and an advocate for reform. His younger paternal half-brother, Kim...
 
I used to hate @fredley :P
 
And he knows what he did
 
Probably 95% of it is true
 
6:26 PM
@KevinvanderVelden still a big story
 
@GodEmperorDune oh definitely
 
@GnomeSlice It's not anti-Trump "conspiracy", it's just facts about things he does.
 
@GodEmperorDune I knew about that but not the "reality show prank" part.
 
The fact that the things Trump does make Trump look bad is not the fault of the reporter.
Although Trump would want you to think it is.
 
@GnomeSlice I know people, myself included on occasion, disagree with a number of your opinions but 1) that's how opinions work and 2) that doesn't mean anyone hates you.
 
6:27 PM
yeah @GnomeSlice you are a cool dude even if we have different political positions
 
Whatever
I'm going back to work
thanks
I don't even like trump
 
@GodEmperorDune yeah pretty much this
 
I respect people who have different value systems from me, who have different political leanings, who have different well-thought-out approaches to the same issues. Trump supporters don't generally display those things.
 
AAAH YOUTUBE IS DOWN PANIC
 
hmmm
 
6:31 PM
They tend to just spew unfounded Obama hate and things they heard once on Fox News.
 
(except it works now)
@StrixVaria don't generally* display
 
@KevinvanderVelden I thought I wrote that.
 
@StrixVaria like trump! I think trump is probably the biggest trump supporter
@StrixVaria I kinda assumed you meant that but still =p
 
@StrixVaria There's been an interesting turn-around with regards to Fox News. Fox has like one or two actual journalists who, for the past few years, seem to provide cover for the rest of Fox News. Now, the rest of Fox News is providing cover for them. Like Shep Smith last week or something railed on Trump for a good two or three minutes.
And I don't recall Trump tweeting about Fox News being FAKE NEWS like he has been with CNN.
 
6:34 PM
That's where he gets like half of his talking points
 
And giving him 50% original thought is probably generous
 
so... Is anyone else getting server errors when trying to visit Youtube?
nvm, seems like it's over already
 
@Unionhawk I just assumed he got another 50% from breitbart
5 mins ago, by Kevin van der Velden
AAAH YOUTUBE IS DOWN PANIC
 
@Nzall no repro here
 
6:37 PM
@Yuuki I've seen at least two Fox News stories denouncing Trump's actions over the past week.
 
People in GDSE got the same problem as well
 
(aka: also down here)
 
@StrixVaria but you also have shit like "UNGRATEFUL TRAITOR" and "what happened in Sweden"
 
@Unionhawk It's still a shitshow, but hopefully this is the beginning of a trend.
And not just a blip to be forgotten.
 
God willing
 
6:47 PM
it has been taking forever to reach 2pm

5 mins ago, by Kevin van der Velden
AAAH YOUTUBE IS DOWN PANIC
 
YouTube being down is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese.
 
It's not exactly down. It's experiencing a high rate of error responses. You can sometimes get through if you refresh enough
And if you can get through, it may vary by location
 
I kinda wish I had salted nuts
 
7:01 PM
@BlueBarren unsalted nut master race
 
Get out
I hope Archer season 8 comes out before r+m season 3
(it prob will lol)
 
@Unionhawk hey now, @fredley is allowed to be wrong on the internet
So very, very wrong
 
@fredley you say that but can you really say salt wouldn't make nuts taste better?
additional comment
 
@Unionhawk :(
 
nuts do taste fine on their own
just better with salt
 
7:08 PM
But without the salt you can gobble more nuts
 
I think the salt is a worth while trade then
 
We'll see
 
I prefer more nuts, less salt
 
A year and a half is coming up in March, Archer is coming up in April
 
I'm not sure what I prefer, hence the dilema
I understand unsalted nuts are better for you but salted nuts taste better
especially in the case of peanuts and cashews
almonds are fine, those don't need salt at all

7:11 PM
Thrift store adventure today yielded a plush toy that looks like a Xbox controller and an arc of Cory Doctorow's Walkaway. Today is a good day.
 
I've been listening to MDWAP, so it took a long time to figure out who Jim Sterling was...
 
@Ash you should definitely send a picture of that plush toy
I'm curious
 
oh, THAT mdwap
@Ash nice!
 
user15026
 
7:14 PM
Poshish British person discussing with his friends an 'erotic novel' that his father has written. Funniest thing you'll listen to all year.
 
@Ash it's kinda deformed but it's unmistakably an Xbox One controller
 
@Ash it looks amazing
 
user15026
@Avery I might have squealed with delight when I saw the book...
 
user15026
@Avery I couldn't not get it. It was a dollar. I needed it in my life.
 
@Yuuki This one feels like I stretch.
 
7:16 PM
@Ash I'm waiting for it too >_>
 
And no I'm not bitter that Canada is not included :(
 
Salted nuts, unsalted nuts, doesn't matter. It's all about Dee's Nuts.
 
so now my firefox looks like edge
 
@Yuuki dee's nuts 2020
 
@RedRiderX I mean if Australia is a thing, maybe Canada will be coming soon?
 
7:17 PM
 
@Yuuki or the canadians will have to settle for an apology from the devs
 
@BlueBarren I like the developer mode theme
 
@Yuuki There has been the Iroquois though.
 
7:18 PM
@Avery idk what you're talking about
 
@BlueBarren the developer mode theme of firefox
 
@Avery Yeah I'm a fan
Chrome still doesn't really have a dark theme to compare with that
 
@Avery I've never seen that before
 
7:22 PM
@Avery installing intensifies
 
ah wonderful
I found a dark theme for Reddit
 
@BlueBarren no don't
 
@Avery why not?
 
@BlueBarren It messes with CSS. tried before. download RES instead and enable night mode.
 
@Avery RES?
 
You're right about CSS
looks ugly
 
@Avery much better
man
 
Oh don't worry, CPAC has Ken Bone now
 
to toggle to go blue gear on top right and hit the switch
 
7:25 PM
why can't I do this stuff on chrome?
 
@BlueBarren firefox > chrome
 
@Avery oh don't worry I found it
 
It's fine they've balanced it out
 
@Avery That's what I've heard but I'm too invested in my Google account to Switch at this point
 
@BlueBarren there is RES and stylish for chrome
 
I use RES just fine on Chrome.
 
It's on chrome too
Works fine
 
btw here's my collection of dark userstyles, you might like it: gist.github.com/ardaozkal/4319b9b02ba7d27a45ca262283d06a3e @BlueBarren
 
I don't think Firefox could ever match the convenience of Chrome automatically syncing to the main account I use for everything.
 
@StrixVaria firefox sync is a thing
 
7:28 PM
@Avery I imagine that they did adopt that feature, but transitioning from where I already have everything working, and integrated directly with my email and docs which I use constantly, to another system sounds like a bad move.
 
Oh wow, this retooling ticket is a lot bigger than I thought it would be.
 
yeah, I can understand
 
Plus my work laptop runs Chrome OS so if I want my personal stuff on there it has to be a chrome profile.
 
@Avery so do you use dark on everything? Also how do you apply all of those? Through stylish?
 
@BlueBarren yes
you can use add from url feature
 
7:30 PM
@StrixVaria Chrome not being able to open a new tab automatically (i.e. by just hitting enter) from the URL bar is enough of an annoyance that I don't use it at home. I have an extension that can do that for Firefox.
 
I have the links noted down on comments section so you can just copy-paste it @BlueBarren
 
@MBraedley I have never encountered a need for this because when I just went to test it I automatically hit ctrl+t to get a blank search bar defeating the purpose that this feature would serve.
 
@Unionhawk seriously?
 
@StrixVaria At this point it's muscle memory, and it's hard to change that.
 
7:32 PM
@MBraedley It's frustrating at first, but it's possible. Is it worth doing? Entirely up to you.
I learned Dvorak once, though.
Ruining my QWERTY muscle memory.
Then I switched back because it was super inconvenient to not be able to type on pretty much any computer but my own.
It's doable, it's just annoying :P
 
@Avery I know what I'm doing when I get home now ;) (I don't really need to do all this at work, as long as SE Chat and Reddit are dark I don't care)
 
@Yuuki did she give the horse a lemon?
 
@StrixVaria If the extension I'm using in Firefox ever becomes unsupported, and there isn't an alternative, I may decide to move 100% to Chrome.
 
@StrixVaria I constant switch between turkish qwerty and english qwerty. It destroys my muscle memory
I'm 1/6 faster on english qwerty though
 
@MBraedley What exactly does the extension do? If you type a new web address in the bar for a current page and hit enter it opens in a new tab instead of replacing the current page?
 
7:33 PM
(even though its qwerty the order is weird on some keys)
 
@GodEmperorDune Maybe, maybe not?
 
@StrixVaria Correct. Same thing for the search bar and left clicking on bookmarks. Things that would open in a new window are opened in a new tab.
 
Actually, I think that's smooth skin so probably an apple with yellowish coloring.
 
There are some other nice features with the extension as well.
 
@Yuuki ah that makes more sense
 
7:34 PM
Lack of "Marie! The baguettes!" is disappointing though.
#RuinedForever
 
@MBraedley For bookmarks I middle click to get new tabs, for the search bar I already have muscle-memoried to use ctrl+t whenever I want to type something there.
 
I am pleased to inform you that There Has Been A Resignation
 
@TimStone Who?
 
@TimStone RIP @Wipqozn
 
Milo saw the writing on the wall and left Breitbart
 
7:35 PM
@Avery This must suck because US-International probably still doesn't support Turkish very well.
@TimStone They said they were "planning" to fire him which doesn't make sense. Just fire him then.
 
It does seem like there's some noticeable auto-tuning on Emma Watson's part, but honestly I don't think I expect there not to be.
 
@TimStone oh i thought you meant that NJ lt. governor
 
@StrixVaria I do that at work, since context switching is limited to just the beginning and end of the day.
 
With my eyes opened to the darkness I can now say The Bridge is better than sliced bread
 
7:36 PM
@StrixVaria I type mostly in english so it's not that unbearable
 
@GodEmperorDune lol, wtf
 
But at the same time, it feels slightly off when the villagers sing more "authentically".
 
@StrixVaria Yeah, I guess they were trying to weasel out of firing him. But he has indeed quit now
 
Hopefully everyone can forget he exists now.
Just disappear back into obscurity please.
 
@StrixVaria if only we were so lucky
well with a new position open, maybe breitbart will hire pewdiepie
 
7:38 PM
Yeah, luckily this should taint him enough to keep him out of the White House so maybe that'll actually happen. Woo!
@GodEmperorDune You monster, this could actually happen
 
Having watched this trailer, I kinda wish Anna Kendrick wasn't in Into The Woods so she could be Belle here.
 
@TimStone I was hoping for a cabinet resignation.
 
@MBraedley TBH i was too
though i heard the new national security guy is actually decent
 
Look it's only Tuesday there can only be so much good news at once
 
@GodEmperorDune apparently he has a booth or something
 
7:41 PM
@GodEmperorDune He wrote a book about the failure of the military to tell politicians to go stuff it in Vietnam, called Dereliction of Duty
It'll be interesting to see how long he lasts though. That he's active military is not ideal either, but
@pattymo He's his own booth now, they grow up so fast
 
next question, will ken bone ever be allowed to wear a non-red sweater?
 
No, that is his punishment
When Trump causes global temperatures to rise five degrees, still sweater
 
@TimStone He better move to Alaska in that case.
 
@MBraedley i hear they have great views of russia
 
@TimStone I don't think he was ever considered for appointment
pretty much none of his colleagues like him either
colleagues/peers
 
7:52 PM
Just watched the first episode of Black Mirror
Hell of a way to start a show
 
I assume Bannon considered him valuable, at least. I'm curious who will be the next press secretary after Spicer bows/strokes/is shoved out
 
user15026
@Yuuki I love this, I am so excited for the movie. It does feel slightly autotuned but not as much as I expected
 
@Ash It doesn't sound blatant, but I do think it's there.
 
user15026
@MBraedley Yeah, it's not painfully obvious or anything
 
@TimStone just listen to ben shapiro lay into both of them. nobody likes either of them lol
 
7:54 PM
The cow has died :(
 
@TimStone 14th month of 2016 is not going well
 
@Avery @Unionhawk this RES is sooooooooo good
My Reddit game has changed forever
 
@Ash If anything, it's only noticeable in quick cuts between her singing and the villagers.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Yeah that's the only bits where I noticed it
 
@Ash It's in those moments that I wish it was Anna Kendrick though.
 
7:56 PM
@TimStone i imagine he drives traffic and that is valuable
 
And then I feel like a horrible person for thinking that.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Nah man, she'd've been amazing
 
Emma Watson really needs a win, her acting career hasn't been looking too great, tbh.
 
and i hope the next press secretary is melissa mccarthy
@Yuuki she is making the world a better place for all the ladies
 
Granted, she's also in The Circle this year, which has Tom Hanks.
But it's a "Tom Hanks seems like he's the bad guy" movie, so I 'unno.
 
user15026
7:58 PM
@Yuuki No, but she's doing awesome in the world and that's good too
 
I want to watch a rom-com with Rupert Grint now.
Maybe Rupert Grint with Emma Watson just for hilarity.
 
@Ash Could she pull it off? Definitely. Do I think she'd be the right person for the part? I'm less convinced about that.
