Q: Why is Wolf's Rain so ridiculously expensive?

StevieVI am looking to add the complete set of Wolf's Rain to my anime collection, however after shopping around on E-Bay I see the following: Wolf's Rain for over $300 This is a pretty common price-point for Wolf's Rain, I constantly see that this series is starting at over $300. Why is this? From wh...

@arda OH LOL
 
12:55 AM
I really love Maffalda. He always make unexpected and awesome remixes of weird stuff like this funny funk carioca
 
1:24 AM
I watched To Love Ru... I didn't like it.

Q: Do ANBU Black Ops use teleportation justu

FredI am just a little curious about the ANBU because I've seen one scene in the reign of the 3rd Hokage. When he was at his office, suddenly a member of ANBU appeared directly.Without using the door or from the window. Are they using teleportation jutsu ?

programming is so fun
maybe that's what i'm gonna make for a living
e-e
 
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan yes
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan same
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan e-e
 
:D
0:30am here
alarm at 5:30
i'm gonna die lol
so i'm refactoring some old code
so fricking ugly e-e
it's going to be almost the same size (total proj ~1000 lines), the difference now is that 90% of the size is documentation
 
6:30am here
alarm at 10am
i'm gonna die lol
so i'm refactoring some old code
so fricking ugly e-e
in The 2nd Monitor, 7 hours ago, by arda
Me when looking at my old code: "Don't code what you can't debug tomorrow."
I removed like %50 of code
 
@arda you're getting creepy boi O.O
 
ahah
you are doing what I'm doing
You are just more verbal, and I say that I'm doing the same in copypasta ways
 
3:33 AM
 
I plan to go through my old code this summer
 
i'm not an actual programmer
but i'm getting the trickzzzzz
:P
 
define actual programmer
 
i usuallt don't plan to program when i do and i do not expect to work with programming
maybe sideprojects but that's all
physics ftw
(but programming is so fun that i'm starting to consider if it would be a nice idea)
@ton.yeung yup, sure
the project I was refactoring is an auto yt downloader of music playlists
I made a google project so now I can also have OAuth access
The biggest problem 4 me is that some of my ~1000 tracks get delete every now and then. So I'll use the extractor, it'll find the private/blocked/deleted/copyrighted video and remove it from the playlist
I want a private repo :c
 
3:50 AM
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan give me a sec
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan invite sent: github.com/ardaozkal/autoytdownloader
Let me know when/if you want to make it public and I'll transfer it to you
 
:D
thank you so much @arda !
 
Abusing unlimited private repos LIKE A BOSS
 
How much does it cost?
Oops, 2late4me
g2g, good night bois
 
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan 90£
So roughly 10 cents
#Brexit
 
@arda Looks like there is no such command.
 
4:00 AM
Jokes aside 7$
 
Bitbucket is free for private repos if you got none of da monies
 
@Quill I like gitlab more
I just realized that I'm a member of loads of version control services: github.com/ardaozkal gitlab.com/aoz ardaozkal.visualstudio.com bitbucket.org/ardao
 
4:34 AM
lol, one of the child stars from the original Willy Wonka movies has said that the actors who played the Ompa Lumpas were often drunk after shooting and played tricks on the rest of the cast
i surprisingly don't find that surprising, i always thought of Ompa Lumpas as sort of trickster pixies
oh, @ʞɹɐzǝɹ, Star Ocean 5 should be out now. my pre-order was just dispatched
 
4:53 AM
@Memor-X got some sauce on that?
 
@hakase were you looking at this stackoverflow.com/questions/4766201/… ?
 
@Quill just something i heard on tv just then

Q: what song name is this recorded file

@ton.yeung didn't read LMS for a long time. It has only machine translations? is it readable?

"Today we're going to learn how to make a smear campaign. Here we have our local candidate, this is an investment property that wasn't declared, this is a raciest comment that was made 4 years ago, and these are farm animals that our candidate allegedly had intercourse with back in high school. allegedly" - Sammy J
 
imgur updated their look
 
@Hakase and then Arqade will be swampped with people asking "why isn't God of War working on my new XBOne"
@Hakase looks the same to me
 
everything is grey and it says beta on top?
 
10:49 AM
try private browsing mode
 
@Hakase still the exact same
 
@Hakase that is sorcery.....or Time Lord tech
 
have you played Antichamber?
there's some of that stuff in it
and other puzzles
 
@Hakase nope but i have heard of it
 
10:52 AM
I think I can recommend it
 
11:46 AM
Yo
@arda I'm late for school -u-'
 
@Chinatsu-creepy-chan don't chock on that piece of toast in your mouth
 
12:15 PM
Yo
my screen arrived today :)
can resume working on my game :)
 
what screen?
and what game?
oh that game
how's it going btw
 
my fps game
 
I remember your screen broke too
 
yeah
i paused work on it after i smashed it
cuz i only had a tiny screen to work on and it wasnt easy
 
so how's it going?
 
12:17 PM
in the meantime I've seen a good few posts of free 3d models which will be useful
i'm still yet to implement the boss logic
i want to make some flying enemies too
 
I've just got linked a very cool channel about gamedev youtube.com/user/RickDavidsonChannel/videos
 
and crouching
 
I think this vid youtube.com/watch?v=jOwf6hwq_b8 is gonna be much help to you
it's not very detailed, but it gives a lot of ideas to think about
 
Today i found.... this
 
I don't actually like ketchup myself
sliced tomatoes are soooo much better
 
12:23 PM
Join the war then
 
ketchup is just a salty mess
 
@ToshinouKyouko see this is why you need to be careful with VR. you lucky it was just your screen and not this
 
There's also this
every single word must me "Cat." or you get banned
 
@Ikaros i can do cat and tomato

@Memor-X cuteness intensifies
 
12:32 PM
 
1:11 PM
@Ikaros oh internet...
 
1:24 PM
oh god i hate employers who post a job on a job search site that's in one city but the description clearly says it's in another city 2 hours away
 
@Memor-X :D
@Memor-X i really really hate that
 
I recently browsed gamedev job postings and a lot of them are for people of a caliber that should probably know what jobs are available without looking
 
thats a big problem with the software industrry
everyone just wants senior people
and most often they base that on age in my experience.. :(
 
so I'm currently looking for a remote gamedev gig, probably without long-term commitment coz I'm not looking for a full-time job atm, but I still wanna get involved in more than basic localized problems
 
1:28 PM
@ToshinouKyouko I don't care how old or experienced someone is as long as they know what they're doing. I've got too many people who are "programmers" but they can't actually write code.
 
on reddit there are two subs where not much relevant is happening, so idk where to look
 
@CuddleBunny yeah i know :(
 
job sites are crap for what I'm looking for
 
@CuddleBunny because they are copy and pasting answers off SO
 
I have one guy on my team and he's really enthusiastic and all, but he's just not very good...
 
1:29 PM
idk about forums, currently looking through anything I see, haven't figured out yet which ones are suitable for me
 
@Memor-X pretty much.
 
i find linkedin and career.stackoverflow pretty useful
compared to job boards
 
@Hakase that's generally what i've been told about games industry jobs. you're not going to find them on job search sites
 
@Hakase we occasionally get game projects if you're okay with working for peanuts. I'll let you know next time we're in need of some help.
 
ye, but I don't feel like researching every game company I can find and email everyone in there for a chance to find out they're not what I thought they were :/
 
1:30 PM
@ToshinouKyouko i took a gander on Career.SO and unfortunately the jobs are only posted for capital cities which is still a 2 hours commute for me
 
@CuddleBunny I'm interested, what size are the peanuts?
 
@Hakase I make ~$60k salary
 
@CuddleBunny $US i assume
 
yeah, USD
 
per year I assume
 
1:31 PM
per year
 
Nah per day
 
@CuddleBunny if that was in AUS$ that wouldn't be peanuts for me, that would be more than my first job
get into games and get more money than i ever been paid. double win
 
@Ikaros lol irl
 
works out to about $30 USD / hour
regional average for my position is twice that
 
my first job was ~800 usd per month and now that money is equal to ~400 usd so this could be very cool for me
 
1:33 PM
@Memor-X yeah the offering is less

but i find quality rate is higher at least
 
so what kind of work do people do in gamedev actually? the job descriptions are very often different from the real tasks, as I've heard
not many go into detail, so I'm still figuring it out
 
because the people who do the work tend to be way too busy to write job descriptions so HR does it
we're not a game dev shop though so it isn't quite the same
 
1:36 PM
I mean I know what I have to do for my own project, which is pretty much everything, but working for a company is a whole other deal
what's a game dev shop and where are you then if not there?
 
contracting with a mid size company like us you basically would get some code conventions, some art assets, and a storyboard
we mainly make e-learning like that omelette course I posted the other day
game dev shops would be companies like activision or vivendi
they have a tremendously different culture
I have a pretty consistent workload year round
work between 35 and 45 hours a week
but at a game dev shop they work maybe 45-60 hours a week while a game is in active production, up to 100 hours a week close to launch
then once the game is out they work maybe 15-25 hours a week
till the next one ramps up
AAA game dev isn't a good job if you want a home life
 
my friends who work in gamedev area always super stressed
 
jesus that's a lot of hours
I remember spending 10-14 hours a day for 2-3 months and then I was so burnt out I didn't touch that project for half a year
 
yeah game dev is like that, but since it is your job you can't stop
 
1:40 PM
i've been in the office until 2am before, dark times
 
yeah, I've done that twice
one of the times I was in the office until people started showing back up at 8 am the next morning
 
@CuddleBunny Leaving saying "goodnight" to everybody must have been akward :p
 
yeah
 
this conversation feels tougher than some of the best anime drama moments
 
1:42 PM
the game dev companies I toured in california all have bedrooms
with a bunch of bunk beds
because you're not supposed to leave during crunch time, they'll bring you food and let you take naps but the game has to go out on time
 
I bet some of the companies with more consistent episodic releases like telltale have much more consistent schedules though, so don't let it scare you away
 
nah I just know that big companies really have to make things right, and there are hella things, so multiplied, that does require a lot of work hours
 
fun
 
1:58 PM
@CuddleBunny might be the reason why the big game devs closed their Australian Studios. in Australia you pay normal wages between 8 AM and 5 PM, anything before or after you have to pay time+1/2 (ie. if you get 30/h you then time+1/2 makes it 45/h), same with weekends. sundays and holidays you have to pay time+time
i very much doubt alot of AAA companies would want to keep that up
 
@Memor-X wow, that is crazy
 
no overtime here :(
 
some companies here used to voluntarily pay time + 1/2 on Sundays and for overtime, but have done away with it over the last decade or two.
I think the government just passed a measure to make people get paid extra for overtime, but it only applies to people that are considered lower class
 
@CuddleBunny then what is the definition of lower class?
 
probably waged vs salaried
thats how overtime works here
 
2:08 PM
@ToshinouKyouko what's the difference between the two?
 
@Memor-X it roughly translates to the bottom 30% based on household income level
 
@Hakase was about to ask that myself
 
@Hakase paid per hour vs paid per month
wage = hour, salary = month
 
is that how they're called?
huh
 
it depends on where you live, but basically if your entire household makes less than $50,000 USD per year, you're considered "working poor"
the line that is drawn is whether you spend all the money you make on just living vs being able to spend some on leisure
 
2:11 PM
i want 50,000$ please
 
@ToshinouKyouko likewise, except in AUS$
 
heh
I'm in the gamedev room trying to figure out how people are invested in doing a game jam/collab idea they've just started yesterday
I'm interested in making something and then selling it, but idk how the intellectual property or contracts work, and a lot of other organizational stuff
I thought we had some collab game projects here too?
what happened?
@ton I thought you were involved and you were gonna write a blog post?
you haven't posted anything there in a few weeks
(it was months previously, and it's not like you've regularly posted before)
 
2:31 PM
@ton.yeung keeping the phone cool is useful
since Nokia sold their maps app to Audi MS had to pivot fast and the new app is obnoxiously inefficient with battery and heat.
 
2:43 PM
@ton.yeung are there any articles worth reading?
I'm also asking about all other sites
what sites could you recommend that deliver interesting/useful info without much water?
in game news, the most condensed site I know is allgamesdelta
no water, only substance
tech news on Ars seems very watered down and often useless
heh
it's still the best I"ve found
the articles are written in a journalisty way, which makes the text longer without explaining how some new tech is gonna improve this or other field of science, or directly affect consumers
 
mostly it's info that consumers can't use or have no power over
on reddit, there's a comment bot which reduces the original article text greatly, and it does a pretty good job, but I'd like to find a site which doesn't distill the news at all
idk if that's too much to ask for, as all sites like that would not profit from it
but there's one for game news, so maybe there's one for tech news too
I just haven't found it yet

Q: How come Yuki Onna turn into a kid?

LordSacha Lord Second Era As seen in Episode Number 8, during Gyuki's flashback, Yuki Onna can be seen as a woman with both adult facial feature and height. Lord Third Era (Now, Episode 1-...) Now, Yuki Onna is as tall as human form of Sandaime and has kid-like facial feature, which is kawai :D. ...

 
@ton.yeung oh wow that layout is horrible
like all reddit posts expanded
I'd rather just read r/tech or r/gadgets
do you read stuff on reddit?
I often go look for reddit comments to ars posts
it aggregates everything from all sources and that's why I like it
but it's hard to filter out the bad stuff
@ton.yeung reddit.com/r/gadgets try this and this reddit.com/r/technology
I'd be interested to find out what you think about reddit compared to google news
yes, but I haven't tried yet
there's the tab to only see top posts by 24 hours, week, month, year and all time
if you're talking about specific topics, there may be a way on some subreddits
the sidebar should explain how to combine multiple topic filters
I know you can also combine subreddits somehow but idk if filtering works in that case
reddit has lots of tools as external sites and you might find the best filtering solution for you, but that seems like a pain
 
3:08 PM
@ton.yeung can't trust that Waze will get consistent updates or feature parity on Windows Phone after Google bought it
Bing maps works great otherwise other than those performance issues
sometimes, but I have it all the frills turned off at the moment
there isn't a different icon though
so from a glance you can't tell if it is the cops or an accident
I don't drive crazy fast anyways because in Ohio they use helicopters and radar
yeah, cheating bastards.
that is how I got my first speeding ticket
the topography is pretty flat so radar works very well

@Ikaros no, your message gets removed if it isn't Cat., you only get banned if you are a repeat offender or you say Dog.
@CuddleBunny you reminded me of an anime hentai eroge.
 
3:47 PM
@ton.yeung all righty...
 
@ton.yeung technically, but if you take if off when you're stopped so they can't see it you won't have any problems
that and your radar detector will probably be going off more than not
 
4:04 PM
@CuddleBunny testing your PR
 
STOP
!!say test
!!say hi
Your PR doesn't work @CuddleBunny
 
any errors?
 
this script's console is confusing
 
No visible errors, prob handled somewhere
 
hmm, I bet you can't check the state from the console either because it is in a closure
 
4:11 PM
No worries tho, I'll rewrite hoihoi soon, will make sure to implement that
 
yeah, that is probably best
 
I'm keeping a 50$/mo server for hoihoi because it can't run headless :P (I get 160$/mo from msdn so not a big issue but still)
 
@arda why not the shared VM? it is only ~$14
 
Very good question and I have no answer
 
but if you've got the MSDN money then it is no biggie
 
4:15 PM
Yeah, running two of these atm, one ubuntu (vpn and stuff), one ws2012.
 
if you create it as a web app she can run on a free tier app service
or if you're using a VM for something else you can run it there
 
Yeah, but I suck at web languages. Will probably write her in C# and put her in one of my vms. Worst case, I move her to a Raspberry Pi.

Q: Is their a difference between Rurouni Kenshin & Samari X?

Pookie323I was told their was a difference between Rurouni Kenshin & Samari X but I've only seen Rurouni Kenshin . Are their really different and if so can you explain how?

 
@arda what web languages?
oh you changed your username
 
@Hakase most
 
ok :p
I'll go have a snack on the bench in the park
 
enjoy
 
thanks
 
4:36 PM
there is finally a VS code icons extension, yay
 
@arda Yup saw this after
 
@arda there is ASP.NET, but I guess she shouldn't need a static IP so running her on your own hardware might suffice
 
@CuddleBunny I do suck on ASP.net too, never really liked nor tried to learn it though
 
ah, have you done anything with OWIN?
 
No, but looks interesting, will look into it, thanks
 
4:41 PM
just wondering, because if you had and liked it, ASP.NET core is much like OWIN
feels less webby
 
I plan to finish in a month.
 
cool, good luck
 
Oh I remembered why I got the $50 server: I run my search thingy here
 
5:01 PM
 
5:33 PM
I'm back
brought some cookies

ok what are we happy about?
did I miss something?
