Q: What is a perfect IV in pokemon moon and how do I get one?

AustinI went to the battle tree but got flat out CRUSHED. I went to a website for help,and it began speaking about a perfect IV. It also said ev. What are they,and how do I get one?

 
@Lazers2.0 Perfect IV combination would be "all of them", I think.
As for how you get one, "luck" IIRC.
 
@Lazers2.0 it could also be they are just bad at trainer battles
 
Well and focusing EVs and super training on attack/sp attack plus speed iirc, depending

the guy I killed
Ant, is the guy i play with on cod all the time
he was also runnign the knife at the time (it's gun game, so you start on a pistol and work through about 17 weapons, ending on the throwing knife).
99 of the time he'll win it
so for like 3 seconds we didn't even know who'd won

o_O?
 
@GnomeSlice I got this in a humble monthly bundle, but they didn't give me a steam key. :(
 
See, it just makes me think of full metal alchemist :/
 
@Fluttershy humble had like a early access sort of thing
a preview more so than the full game
what you got in humble was not the same as what @GnomeSlice posted, basically :P
 
2:43 AM
@Chippies Oh, it wasn't? Damn.
@djsmiley2k That's what it is. But they're doing the fusion dance from Dragon Ball.
 
@Fluttershy should've read the fine print :P
 
oooooooooooo now I rmemeber

@Chippies I'm not too worried about it. I would just buy it on Steam anyway. :P

Q: Should quest mods be installed ASAP?

Fluidized Pigeon ReactorThere are multiple quest mods that I don't plan on playing through until level 20-ish. These mods are completely separate from the vanilla Skyrim quests. Would installing them later cause conflicts? Should I install them before I make a new character? Some of these mods include Summerset Isles...

And I have to lean sideways until it pops back

@djsmiley2k I tend to either hunch over (bad) or stretch out with my legs up and lock every joint (also bad)
 
ah yeah
 
user15026
I need to be better about not hyperextending/locking joints
 
user15026
4:43 AM
that would go a long way
 
i don't exactly know what that is
o_O D:
i've almost got hyperelasticity so... yeah
locking joints is something mine just don't do.
 
user15026
Basically, extending a joint past where it logically should be and where it has no bend/give to it
 
I'm still lost
if i do that, my joints just keep going...
:D

@Chippies I've seen that one before.
 
perfect
 
> @MaxTemkin FYI, I've bought about $1500 in games in the last couple of years, so I could have been a good customer.

@justin_mckinley you've never had $1,500

@MaxTemkin seriously? Now you're personally attacking me?

@justin_mckinley @MaxTemkin he's just offering alternative facts, I'm sure you don't have any problems with that
Brilliant

@Chippies that doesn't seem very well planned out
 
@badp which part exactly?
 
part 3
in order to cover that up s/he'll need to draw a double stack of leaves
I'm really not much of a fan of how the DS4 kills wifi
 
@KevinvanderVelden this entire exchange is hilarious because Temkin was on the HRC campaign
So like, anyone who actually has a problem with that is already gone
And like they did the "depending on who wins all proceeds will go to support the Clinton campaign"
 
2:03 PM
Fantastic. Antoher FTL victory. That makes two!
Still only on easy, because yeah
But those two victories I had I completely wrecked the flagship
It's that third phase that's giving me the most trouble, with the boarding, but I think I finally figured out the best way to handle it. That is, actually rush them as soon as they board.
I was trying to oxygen them to death, but they board to quickly for that to matter. They only send 2 humans at a time, though, so you can overwhelm them. Best thing seems to be have rock or mantis to fuck'em up.
@Sterno Also hull repair drones are a godsend
 
2:26 PM
I had an interesting idea for Skyrim... Attempt to compile a list of the highest base damage weapons for each category that are just grab and go. I'm not even sure where to begin with this though lol. I guess I'll start with the highest items I know of and start reading up the locations in the wiki.
For clarification, I'm talking about developer placed items, not level-locked items. Essentially, anything that can be obtained with a little patience and maybe some lockpicking, no questing, no leveling, no smithing. The list would be primarily used for early game weapon leveling, not for any particular combat prowess. Hence searching for high base damage.
I suppose I could expand it to include the highest base armors and shields as well later.
 
3:00 PM
Argh... damn you BoI! Missed boss rush by 5 seconds, and getting that close required skipping an angel fight to get the second key piece I also needed for Megasatan completion on this character.

does sublimetext.com throw http500 for anyone else? sublimetext.com
 
Yup.
Apparently it's the lack of www.
 
nope
apparently it's working randomly
it gives 500 usually but a couple refreshes fix it, no matter if I add www. or not.

I'm willing to accept it being a "just me" thing, just was surprised
 
@TimStone he is a legit radio talky guy, whatever the proper term is, so I guess there's lots of people who think his voice is good :P
he's satirizing, so he makes his voice a bit more annoying a lot of the time in the videos anyway, but I think it's a voice you have to get used to

6:02 PM
I installed vim on my Pi... Opened a file, wrote some stuff and Idk what happened but I can't do anything anymore, none of the keys seem to do anything
trying to find some basics guide on vim is near impossible as well, as it seems like everyone assumes you know how to do the basics already
 
You can't esc your way to freedom? What hell have you entered? :O
 
@TimStone Idk, I was in insert mode (through ssh, if it matters), wrote some stuff, clicked back on chrome, clicked back on Putty and that's it, it's all broken beyond repair
 
Huh, maybe the SSH session is just hung?
 
I can highlight text by dragging mouse over it, so it's not frozen
 
mm
 
6:06 PM
sigh, I suppose I can restart the SSH session and try messing around with vim and learning to use it before actually trying to do something with it
aha, found the culprit
I must have instinctively hit ctrl+s trying to save
and idk what it does, but it hangs up the input

Q: Ctrl-s hang terminal emulator?

Hongxu ChenI came across a sentence in vimdoc: Note: CTRL-S does not work on all terminals and might block further input, use CTRL-Q to get going again. and this key indeed hangs my vim. I was thinking that it was the fault of vim, since there was no problem when I use C-s/C-x C-s in emac...

I guess I'm not the first one to encounter this :P
 
Ahhhhh
 
cool, ctrl+q is the fix
I should just stick with nano, lol
 
I know the shortcut for quitting vim and that's it.
 
@Ronan I haven't got that far yet
 
shift+zz
 
6:11 PM
weirdly enough, none of the tutorials/guides I've found mention it early on
 
Because vim is wonderful and does all the things, why would you want to leave?
 
@Ronan according to the interwebz, you're thinking of emacs
why does everything have to be so complicated in linux?
 
Haha, I've encountered way more vim fanatics.
 
@Ronan oh, probably, but I was looking up differences between the two and people seem to agree that emacs does everything, which is both a pro and a con
288
A: Differences between Emacs and Vim

James Brooks(the text below is my opinion, it should not be taken as fact or an insult) With Emacs you are expected to have it open 24/7 and live inside the program, almost everything you do can be done from there. You write your own extensions, use it for note taking, organisation, games, programming, shel...

I didn't even bother installing emacs, seems like a bit much for what I want
nano probably would've been just fine, but I suppose it's useful to learn to use vim
after somehow opening the command line in vim and having no idea what's happening and nothing working as it should, I finally learned how to save a file and quit
I can totally tell that Vi predates any sensible OS...
 
You need to install vim? I thought it was just a side effect of processor architecture. Why else would it work like it does?
 
6:23 PM
@Ronan vi is preinstalled on pretty much everything, from what I could gather on the internet, but there are distros that don't have vim installed
like raspbian
 
No one knows how it gets there, it just turned up one day.
 
basic vi literacy is important
but that's like
open vi
hit i to modify things normally
modify things normally
hit escape then shift-z twice to save
that's your basic vi literacy :P
 
Wash your hands
 
some emacs shortcuts get occasionally useful on the command line though
like ctrl-w to delete the word before the cursor
or ctrl-k to delete everything after the cursor
I'm sure there's a very long list of these
 
so, I have a pi-hole installed on my Pi and I installed a webserver on it just now and apparently the local address of the Pi is blacklisted, even though it's not on any of the lists
 
6:32 PM
what I don't understand is why Ctrl-Arrow to move the cursor word by word somehow doesn't work on the OSX terminal emulator
 
ever since I started messing with the Pi, the whole Linux experience has been nothing but a headache
 
/cc @fredley nyaa.
 
@badp alt-arrow does that.
 
what
WHAT
 
okay, if I add the port, it does redirect me to the actual web server page... still doesn't explain why it tells me the local ip at port 80 is blacklisted
 
6:34 PM
@badp At least on mine.
 
why is osx designed to be as unfriendly as possible in every way
I wouldn't even care that much if my coworkers didn't end up asking me for help
and then I have to play Guess The Modifier
 
@badp because it's built on Unix
 
does the modifier brain damage have anything to do with Unix
 
it has everything to do with Unix
 
raises brow
Totally legit in premise but that language, what?
 
6:39 PM
anyway I have about 0 expertise with linux & network sysadmineering, sorry
or network sysadmineering at all
 
@fredley symbinyaaan
@fredley why though
 
@badp Because mac
 
makes sense
should I continue holding the left arrow key instead and staring the person as I do in the face instead fur their poor decision making
 
@badp ctrl+a, ctrl+e
 
6:52 PM
@fredley but is it indestructible?
 
@badp Mac OS king of hidden UI controls. But once you learn them you can't live without them
And then everything else is pain
 
@fredley like what.
so far I feel the pain of not being able to middleclick-paste things on non-Linux
 
Hold down alt when right-clicking things (e.g. wifi selector) - extra menu items!
 
...like shift-rightclicking in Explorer?
 
@badp cmd+c, cmd+v works in terminal though (although can recommend using iTerm if you're not already)
@badp Is that a thing?
 
6:54 PM
yes, since like Windows 95?
 
@fredley has been since at least Win 7, probably earlier
 
except of course you're already using Shift to perform the right click in the first place
 
I haven't used Windows in anger in nearly 10 years now
 
very few things respond to a shit right click tbh
that's why I said Explorer.
 
Quite a few (OS) things respond to alt-right click

When this mac finally dies I might go back to Windows, the current crop of macs are terrible and OSX keeps getting worse
 
@fredley besides the shell and file manager, what OS things are you talking about?
 
@Chippies dock icons, native controls
Most of my alt-right clicking is for killing misbehaving things in the dock
And now I sound like a nazi
 
pls
 
shift right click on taskbar icons opens a different context menu than just right clicking in windows
 
6:59 PM
@Chippies vague memories
 
Ubuntu has been giving me some hardware problems with my Dell laptop, but 16.10 has been stable as a rock, despite my best efforts
would recommend if it was an LTS
hopefully 17.04 doesn't go backwards
 
@badp Yeah I'd be tempted to switch. Things that put me off: bad support for high-dpi screens, especially with multiple screens with different pixel density (last time I checked)
Also nothing compares to the mac trackpad
 
high-dpi screens on non-macs are still sort of a self-inflicted wound
 
As are non-mac trackpads, literally. Trying to use a trackpad for srs bsns == rsi in my experience
 
the main thing that gives me sadness about my choice of hardware is that apparently our selection of macbooks can drive 5 monitors provided sufficient sacrifices to the dongle goddesses
whereas the Dell model I have can only run 3
so while I have three external monitors I can't also use the internal one
maybe next year.
 
7:05 PM
I only ever need three screens for my work really, terminal : code : browser
 
code / terminal / corp browser / corp chat / server logs / personal browser
 
@badp my terminal is split 4 ways usually, or 6 on a large screen, so that has all my logs on. I don't like to have chat/personal browser up while working
 
with additional screen real estate I'd have room for monitoring charts, a dedicated view into the corp deployment channel, some other things I'm sure I'd figure it out
@fredley every window is already 1080×960

@BlueBarren that looks pretty cool, a shame that people would ignore the fractal patterns and just see the upside down star

though a good counter to that is "5 point stars look like people so it's not upside down, it's the star person about to do a cartwheel"
@BlueBarren i'm hailing Mr Satan so to be fair his symbol would be that of his master (like how Goku has Roshi's and King Kai's on his)
 
Mr Satan has no master for he is the strongest
