8:01 PM
I haven't gotten to play in a few days.
That is so much better than my weapon, though :(
 
it's by 1k dps better than mine
 
If you're using EP/WoL, the raw damage is the only thing that matters. The top end raw damage on this is like 900 higher than on my current weapon.
 
Yeah, true
same speed though, so her's is still 1k stronger
 
Fair enough.
My current weapon has 0.9 attacks/second.
 
btw, does anyone know circuit breakers that are 2 joined together with a little metal thingy?
and you are supposed to switch them on/off both at same time
if one gets "blown" and gets stuck in the middle position (that's what they seem to do), is there a proper way to reset them?
last time this happened we thought it was fucked and we called landlord and her guy came over and flipped it easily
 
8:04 PM
Little metal thing?
 
@Chippies I want more than @StrixVaria
 
no matter how I try, it doesn't work
 
@Chippies Flip it all the way off, then back on.
 
@Chippies Have you tried turning them off then back on again?
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm not sure how to google for these things
@Powerlord that is exactly what I have tried
but you have to flip them both at same time
but one is stuck in the middle
so, you have to flip them off both at same time, but I can't seem to do it
 
8:05 PM
How does only one of 2 joined together get stuck?
 
@Chippies It's been tripped, turn the other off.
 
I am now out of my depth.
 
If one is in the middle, that's the same as off as far as whatever it's feeding is concerned.

Q: xbox 360 Call of Duty: Ghosts problems

Hand of DonI have been playing with my friend an his copy of Ghosts at his house. I decided to buy an xbox 360, call of duty ghosts, and play it at my house. I installed the install disc and popped the game in. I went to play my favourite mode: gun game. However, to my great disappointment, it wasn't there....

 
@MBraedley it stays in the middle though
 
8:07 PM
@Chippies And it probably will until the other one is turned off.
 
@OrigamiRobot yes, but to turn it back on you have to flip them both off and them flip both on together
and Idk if there's a proper way to do it or what
 
You are living super dangerously until they're both off.
 
@MBraedley no, it's off, I know that
I'm not even sure why they are joined
 
@Chippies Both of them?
 
@MBraedley one of them
we actually lived with one of them on and one off for a week or so
 
8:08 PM
@Chippies Then it's not off!
 
@MBraedley they power separate sockets though
 
What is this even to?
 
@Chippies It doesn't matter if the breakers are joined
 
@OrigamiRobot plugs in the kitchen, there's 3 sockets with 2 plugs each, one breaker is connected to top plugs and the other to bottom
it doesn't make sense that they are joined, imho
 
Now maybe they shouldn't be joined, and that's a different problem, unless you're talking about half breakers and not double breakers.
 
8:09 PM
but I'm not an electricial
@MBraedley maybe they are half breakers, I wouldn't know the difference
I think I'm just gonna take a picture
 
Are you physically incapable of moving either of them?
 
@Chippies Is it two switches in a single breaker slot, or a single switch across two slots?
 
@Chippies I finally found the vault.
 
@MBraedley seems like 2 switches in 2 slots, joined with a metal thingy
@Frank awesome :)
wife got 50'ish mil earlier from one vault
 
And now I'm 40 million richer.
And not sure what to do with any of it.
 
8:11 PM
@Chippies Which ends up being a single switch.
 
My biggest bottleneck now is finding crappy legendaries to convert into Forgotten Souls.
 
Do greater rifts. Practically guaranteed at least 1 leg at the end.
 
Been there, done that.
 
@OrigamiRobot does the level of the grift effect the drops?
 
Getting legendaries is inconsistent.

Q: I am trying to load up minecraft using forge (with a lot of mods!)

Jake6192i keep getting a crash report and i am unsure what the problem is, please can someone let me know what i need to do to fix this issue. (Over 100 mods in use). Here is the crash report from the minecraft launcher: http://pastebin.com/5KAnvaiL

 
cc: @MBraedley @OrigamiRobot
the blue one on the right in the middle
 
3 mins ago, by Origami Robot
Are you physically incapable of moving either of them?
 
@OrigamiRobot I can move the one that's on both ways, but I can't move the one that's halfway
the last time the guy that fixes our apartment said that you have to flip them both off at same time and then you can flip them on
I tried flipping them back and forth and can't seem to do it
so Idk if there's a proper way or should I just try until I either succeed or blow up something
 
I don't know what to tell you then. I've never seen this before.
 
@Chippies Oh, that's weird. You're into calling an electrician territory.
 
8:16 PM
I'm not even sure why they're connected, tbh
Maybe it's a Canada thing
 
@OrigamiRobot Idk either
knowing what they do, they don't seem like they should be connected
 
Also, the fact that counter plugs are locked on is a little disconcerting.
 
Those look different than I was expecting.
The ones I've seen had the two switches part of the same physical handle.
 
@OrigamiRobot 2-phase, and doubles the current the circuit can handle.
 
ERRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
 
8:18 PM
@MBraedley @OrigamiRobot any ideas what I should google for to find any info on these breakers?
 
Although in this case I would suspect it's so that the entire kitchen is thrown if there's a fault, instead of just one set of plugs.
@Chippies an electricians number
 
@MBraedley eh, the guy that fixes apartment flipped it like it's no big deal last time
I'd feel stupid to call him again
I think I'll just try to flip them until it works
 
@Chippies no, he's not an electrician. Call an electrician, then hand the bill to the landlord/property manager.
 
Colleague says replace the breaker.
 
This is me as an electrical engineer telling you that something is wrong with the way your apartment is wired.
 
8:23 PM
 
Still not sure why they're connected. Usually that's for 240V stuff.
 
FCC thing didnt happen
 
@OrigamiRobot The breakers to my stove are connected like that.
 
THERE IS AN ACTIVE LLAMA CHASE ON GOING IN ARIZONA.
 
@JasonBerkan Yea, the stove is probably 240V
 
8:24 PM
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. THERE ARE TWO FUGITIVE LLAMAS ON THE STREETS OF PHOENIX.
 
Normal wall outlets are 120V
 
6 mins ago, by MBraedley
Although in this case I would suspect it's so that the entire kitchen is thrown if there's a fault, instead of just one set of plugs.
 
@MBraedley well, I tried flipping it with no luck, so I'll consider that option
@OrigamiRobot we got fridge connected to that
 
OK, that might be 240V
 
BOTH LLAMAS HAVE NOW BEEN CAPTURED
 
8:27 PM
@OrigamiRobot don't 240V have bigger plugs though?
 
@OrigamiRobot Usually not.
 
WE NOW RETURN YOU TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING

Q: What are all of the possible endings in Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis?

rasteveSo far I have managed to pull off the following endings: Trick the scientist into experimenting on himself - where you escape with Sofia Trick the scientist into experimenting on himself but have Sofia intervene - you escape alone Turn yourself into a god - obviously a bad ending From what I ...

 
@Chippies Yes
 
@OrigamiRobot then the fridge is certainly not 240V, the plug is as tiny as anything else we have
 
8:29 PM
I got nothing then. Turn them both off and call someone.
 
@MBraedley Why would you ever lock any of these things is beyond me. These things are there for safety goddammit.
 
Middle counts as off.
 
@Arperum I can maybe understand... oh, who am I kidding, those are supposed to be used to lock off breakers.
 
I googled the numbers on the breaker and found these lowes.ca/breakers/…
so it's a big massive breaker, rather than 2 connected ones
 
8:32 PM
@Chippies The numbers are the amperage. I could have told you that.
 
@MBraedley dnpl 215215 is not the amperage :P
 
Locking these things on "on" is as bad as "fixing" them with copper wire. This house had way to many of these "fixed" breakers.
 
@Arperum they're not locked on though, one is on, one is off. They just are connected for some reason and have to be switched on/off manually together
 
@Chippies I thought you meant on the tip of the switch.
 
I can still turn on/off the one that's not stuck in the middle
@MBraedley I might be stupid about this stuff, but not stupid enough to google "15"
:P
 
8:34 PM
@Chippies And the ones that have this weird metal/plastic cover over them that connects around the ones that are stuck together?
 
@Chippies I didn't know what exactly you searched for.
 
@Arperum those I don't think have ever been blown
 
@Chippies Because they can't blow
 
so either they're awesome, or they are locked in
 
@Chippies They can't. because they are blocked.
 
8:35 PM
@Arperum ah, cool
 
@Chippies No, not cool. Dangerous.
 
cool in most likely very dangerous way
 
@Arperum that piece is so that both sides trip together
 
@OrigamiRobot It looks like the white/grey piece is also stuck behind the sides though, so that's bad.
 
@OrigamiRobot Nono, not that, the lock plates.
 
8:38 PM
@MBraedley you can flip them off manually together, does it still mean they can't blow on their own?
 
Hrm, you're right.
 
@Arperum the metal plates aren't stuck
 
My house still has old breakers, ones you can't reset once they've blown. Except the copper wire fix mentioned earlier.
 
they're quite wobbly actually
 
@Chippies Yes, if you can switch them off, they can probably still blow.
 
8:38 PM
Ok, yea then it's what I said
 
@Chippies Oh, that's good then. Disregard our mention of danger then.
 
That's still not the way that should have been done.
 
That's also the intent of the metal bar on the middle two
 
wee, Bridge rates my apartment: Not likely to burn down/blow up, probably maybe
@OrigamiRobot the metal plate works much better though :(
 
I'm still not sure why it's set up that way
 
8:40 PM
I don't get why the counter outlets are on the same circuit as the dishwasher, that's not normal is it? O_o

@TimStone the dishwasher is kinda in the counter area
it's under/inside a counter
 
Well sure, but I'd still have expected major appliances to be on their own circuit
 
Dishwashers are also 120v tmk
 
@OrigamiRobot I'd assume so, because I don't think there's a 240v plug there
the dishwasher was only added relatively recently and they didn't change any wiring for it, so it couldn't have been 240v
 
8:45 PM
Your apartment is weird
 
Oh, well that explains that decision then.
 
Just overheard a co-worker telling someone else that the fcc decision was bad
 
I feel like the abrupt end of LlamaWatch2015 has left a hole in my heart.
 
"It means they can control the internet"
 
@OrigamiRobot Are they republican or libertarian?
 
8:46 PM
@OrigamiRobot wat.
 
maybe I should ask how to flip that breaker on diy.SE
 
@Chippies No. You need to ask on Lifehacks.SE.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I can go release some alpacas from a nearby farm if you want.
 
@TimStone DO IT
FREE THEM
 
@JasonBerkan I uhh, no
 
8:47 PM
(Also, be sure to call a local news station)
 
"Bloggers will have to get licenses like radio stations"
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh, so he listens to Rush Limbaugh
@OrigamiRobot (That's practically verbatim from Limbaugh's scalding Hot-Take on the subject two days ago.)
 
@Chippies How do I create a homemade circuit breaker to fix my broken circuit breaker, using wire, chewing gum and a SCUBA tank?
 
@JasonBerkan Hey that's close to the right track.
 
@JasonBerkan He may need to leave his house for parts, don't forget the companion question of what to strap to his feet.

Q: Is the paddle speed unlimited in the Breakout port for Atari 2600?

Franck DernoncourtIs the paddle speed unlimited in the Breakout port for Atari 2600? This video illustrating this paper seems to show that the paddle speed is unlimited but I'd like to confirm. ...

 
@JasonBerkan to be fair, it's not broken, it just needs to be flipped
BACK IN MY DAYS, if your fuse got blown, you unscrewed it and screwed in a new one
I THOUGHT TECHNOLOGY WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE THIS LESS COMPLICATED
 
@Chippies My coworker said to replace the breaker.
(Not the coworker who said the FCC was evil)
 
@Chippies We had our electrical panel replaced when we installed the last old circuit breaker the previous home owner had left behind, and I could not find anywhere to buy another one.
 
@OrigamiRobot that's a massive breaker and I am 99% sure it works just fine and I don't think I should really be doing that, that's what landlord is for
we'll probably call her later and see what she says and then work from there
meanwhile - googling info on how to flip that shit!
these were the shit
probably lot less safe than breakers nowadays, but also much more simple
 
I have the feeling that people connect Net Neutrality with SOPA and the like.
 
8:54 PM
They're just universally dismissive of anything the government does.
 
@OrigamiRobot Yup, just saw an online comic where net Neutrality is seen as a way for the government/NSA to spy more and easier.
 
@Arperum sigh
 
@Chippies Mine were a push button type, with a On / Off indicator on them.
 
@TheAce Exactly.
 
No, Mr. Green, Communism was just a red herring.
 
8:56 PM
@Arperum it makes me wanna just shake people violently until they understand
 
@JasonBerkan there were also those one-time fuses before the button ones, but those I didn't like, because if they blew, you had to buy new ones
 
Our old stove had those built into it.
 
@JasonBerkan He's also from a former Soviet Bloc state, safety indicators not necessary.
 
@Chippies I strill have some of these. And some were "fixed" with copper wire after having blown once.
 
@Arperum The government already has ways to do that!
 
8:58 PM
@Chippies Pretty sure my grandpa still has a collection of them in his workshop.
 
@Arperum THAT IS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
 
@OrigamiRobot I know, the second I found that out they were all removed.
 
That is so dangerous T_T
 
@Arperum I know people who used to do that
also, wiring in houses from USSR times is horrible
 
Because seeing as one connectionpoint has burnmarks, one of those "repaired" ones blew again. And for that reason the wriing in my kitchen is the only part that has grounding...
 
9:00 PM
our fusebox once caught on fire, because there were really thick copper wires connected to the fusebox with tiny wires
 
And newer wires.
 
so, I can't really complain about wiring here
 
So my PC is connected to that part of the wiring, sure, that means a cable running through half the house, but fuck it.
 
It still boggles my mind that my Dad grew up without electricity.
 
@JasonBerkan was he around when they invented fire?
 
9:02 PM
@JasonBerkan What about indoor plumbing?
 
I'm gonna pull a @GnomeSlice.
That looks an awful lot like Descent
 
@OrigamiRobot He didn't have that either. I've been in the house he grew up in - it has electricity now, but no plumbing.
 
I'm gonna do my goddamn dishes.
 
up to age 5, I lived in an apartment with no indoor toilet, but since I was so little, it was my mom's problem, not mine
 
9:04 PM
@Arperum To celebrate indoor plumbing and/or electricity?
 
My house has an indoor toilet because the previous owners wife could get to the toilet outside anymore.
 
My daughter plays with imaginary dinosaurs. In my day, we played with real dinosaurs.
 
@OrigamiRobot Mostly so I have dishes to use when I have someone come over for a couple days, because right now, all that is clean is a single knife or something.
 
I only do dishes like once a month
 
Lately, my daughter seems extremely concerned that dinosaurs are using her toilet when she isn't looking.
 
9:06 PM
And doing it tomorrow before she gets here is not an option because I'm going to climb in trees with a chainsaw.
 
@Sterno Bahahahaha, that's adorable.
@Arperum updates headcannon
 
@OrigamiRobot I do dishes when I run out of stuff. And then it takes me nearly two hours to get through the whole pile.
 
Actually, I'm going to have to ask Dad about that, because the Internet claims that electricity to farms was done in the early 1950s.
 
@Arperum Me too, but I have a dishwasher.
It takes more than two hours.
 
Feb 17 at 14:51, by Yuuki
@Arperum Random note: I now consider you the best programmer in this chat room because I firmly believe you are constantly headbanging while at the computer.
@OrigamiRobot I don't :(
And don't have money spare for buying one either, need to save up for a new roof.
 
9:08 PM
Wait. My Dad's older than I think he is. Nevermind.
 
I rarely use plates or bowls for anything and I use the same cup for a couple days since I rinse it thoroughly when it's empty.
 
GUYZ I DID IT
I DEFEATED THE BREAKER
I MANAGED TO TURN IT OFF AND THEN ON!
 
Did you just need to manhandle it?
 
@OrigamiRobot I did use a bit more force this time
 
9:14 PM
That can't be good.
 
Flipping your breaker probably would have been easier with a hand job

@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh the golf carts

Q: How to get good generals in Centurion: Defender of Rome?

JeroenI'm playing Centurion: Defender of Rome for old times sake. You start out with one great general: He has "Charisma: 10" and "Voice: 18", which is rather good. Now I raised another army from a "Fierce" population, but its general is not so fierce: And even Flaminius is not even half the man ...

You know, after seeing that commercial, I remember that we actually had a hand job when I was a kid (only it wasn't called that, because come on)
And it really did make opening jars easier
 
@Arperum I'm actually been playing that for a few days.
(The game forces you to.)
@Powerlord I suppose you played both?
 
@badp I just noticed.
 
@badp Yes.
I also know that the song I linked to doesn't play during the ending you think it should.
 
I don't know what ending you think I'd think it should.
I didn't get past the "day 3 wall" for *Hyun-Ae.
 
@badp Well, given that it plays during the "Harem" ending (where you have both AIs), but it's clearly being sung by *Hyun-Ae...
 
9:25 PM
I beat the game with *Mute.
@Powerlord I'm playing day 3 of the harem ending right now.
 
Man, ISPs and their henchmen are really digging in with their "these rules came from long ago" defense.

@OrigamiRobot Oh yeah, the good ol' "OBAMA COMMANDS IT" nonsense
 
That too
Obama's support came well after Wheeler made his intentions known.
 
@OrigamiRobot They did. 1998 was a long time ago.
Oh right, they're glossing over the fact that the rules were updated in 1998, aren't they?
 
Like, all these "they're going to regulate rates" and "the internet is going to be taxed" are explicitly not the case.

@Powerlord I don't think ETS2 has music turned on by default, nor I'm even sure if it HAS music, as it has internet radio streaming capabilities
 
@Chippies Maybe, but sometimes for optimization reasons, pirated versions of things leave out big, bulky files that the game doesn't need to actually work.
Such as music files.
 
Let's do science. I have ETS2, let's see if it has music files. There's some music that exists (main menu, etc).

Q: Void Launcher Minecraft

Ryan BuloWhen I hit the void launcher on my mac desktop, it opens for a second and then closes again. I really want to play crazy craft and the other mods. Why isn't the void launcher working? How can I fix it?I am very confused, HELP?

 
@MBraedley no one cares about the show or whatever it is! Did they actually find out they are identical twins, is what I want to know?
 
@Chippies I feel ya
 
such a clickbait, kinda
"Here's a headline with this kinda interesting thing! To find out, watch this show that's probably not even released yet!"
like, I don't really care how they find it out and/or what they go through to find it out, I just want the results
if I got 2 different routers within very close proximity of each other and both are running wifi on different channels, would that interfere with the signal quality?
 
I got a (bad) answer from a super mature SO user
@megaturd99, Nah, it is an option. Don't down-vote this because you're doing it wrong. — naomik 11 mins ago
 
10:26 PM
@Chippies I don't think so, but not really sure
Incidentally, you don't want the channels close to each other if you can help it as they tend to bleed over into the other nearby channels.
 
@Powerlord I kinda feel like the wifi works slightly worse from far away than it used to with just one router
but that could be placebo
or possibly not even wifi related, because I rarely use wifi at all, even more so at a distance
one is on channel 1, the other on channel 6
also, wife's PC can't seem to get full bars on wifi today for some reason, no idea why :/
 
The shoddy insulation on the wires in your apartment created a disruptive electromagnetic field when you finally got that break to turn back on, obviously.
 
@TimStone that would probably be it, if not for the fact that it has been at 2-3 bars since way before the breaker blew :P
 
Minor details! ;)
 
so, I just found out that Dell wireless drivers refuse to install unless you're using a dell PC
so, that dell wifi thing I took from wife's old PC has to do with the generic windows drivers

@Yuuki HE even did it twice. ANd got upvotes on his "megaturd" stupidness.
 
Honestly, I don't really care about that. It's amusingly juvenile. It just bugs me how much he's defending not answering the question
Like, I understand wanting to correct programmers "doing it wrong", but doing that and completely ignoring the original question is wholly unhelpful
 
11:07 PM
Speaking of SO I'm frustrated that I can't post there about the issue we're having at work. If nothing else because we know the answer lies in none of the code we are looking at.
 
@Yuuki Those heads seem incredible out of place in those relatively dirty and weathered paintings.
 
Basically there's a field that leaves the mainframe as "000000+" (which is Cobol's way of saying +0.000), and there's some sort of contraption that turns it into either "000,000" for human consumption or "+000000" for Java's benefit. Except for one field where I get +00(0xDA)000 instead.
If that field is "001000+" I still get +00(0xDA)000. If that field is "033000+" nothing changes. If that field is "WHATTHE", I instead get "000000+"
It's sort of clear where the fault lies but I can't figure out how you would end up with a 0xDA byte.
It's got nothing to do with the ANSI codes for "0", "+" or ",".
 
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
sad day
no con this weekend. They sold out of tickets. I have NEVER heard of a con selling out of tickets. We were going to buy them at the door. Had our hotel booked and everything
thank god they refunded us
 
...unless it is UTF-EBCDIC leaking through. But that makes no sense. 0xDA would be "¹".

@spugsley Ah, see this is something I hear of happening quite a bit for cons (esp. the ones in Toronto)
 
user15026
It's always good to book super early
 
@AshleyNunn We've never had that problem before. We usually buy at the door with no problem. I wish they would have noted that tickets were limited
 
11:22 PM
why would oyu not buy early :/
 
@djsmiley2k because the hotel was expensive and we couldn't

Q: Does Lego Indiana Jones come with a CD key?

rasteveI recently noticed a second hand copy of Lego Indiana Jones 1 and 2 on sale and was wondering if anyone knows if the game comes with a one-time or limited use CD/activation key. This is in regards to the PC versions of the games (not the Steam versions).

Q: I turned my wife into a Vampire and now I can't find her?

PinecampppleI was completing quests for the Vampires at Castle Volkihar and took a quest to turn my wife, Ysolda, into a Vampire like myself. I did and she thanked me the next day. Now a couple of days have passed and I've come back to my house to find that she's gone. I remember the Vampire I did the quest ...
