@badp I feel like I have to maximize my time to get the right reward and I can't because I lack the time or the right games or whatever and then I am like well since I can't do it right I won't play at all and I go read or play DS instead.

badp

@AshleyNunn ...you do know you don't have to worry about it

user15026

It is really odd, because at the core I don't care about the cards.

badp

This is Animal Crossing's fault btw

IT IS DOING BAD THINGS TO YOU ASHLEY

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn Most people don't care about the cards.

user15026

@badp I don't have to worry about most of my anxiety triggers but I do.

Private Pansy

6:01 PM

Actually, the cheapest way to get Bioshock Infinite would be to buy it off eBay

badp

YOUR "OTAKU CITIZENSHIP" IS HAVING THE BEST OF YOU

user15026

@badp my town is nice and calming. I don't care of my furniture doesn't match or I don't have perfect fruit. It is my space to control.

OrigamiRobot

@PrivatePansy The cheapest way to get bioshock infinite is to steal it

Powerlord

@PrivatePansy The PC version is a Steamworks game... which essentially means No Used Copies.

badp

@AshleyNunn but are all the houses and museums and slots filled???

FAE

6:02 PM

@badp I wish brains worked that way. :(

Shotgun Ninja

@badp My museum is coming along nicely.

OrigamiRobot

@AshleyNunn All you have to do to get cards is have the game running. You don't even have to play.

user15026

@badp nope. :) and that's okay.

Shotgun Ninja

I just got badges for Fish Maniac and Insect Maniac this week.

user15026

@origami that oddly makes it worsr

FAE

6:03 PM

@OrigamiRobot I hate doing that though, I like my gametime to be accurate so it's hard for me to let myself do that.

badp

@AshleyNunn so why is it okay to have an unfilled museum but not an unfilled checklist of games to leave running for a hour?

it's... essentially the same thing.

OrigamiRobot

@badp YOU'RE MAKING IT WORSE

FAE

@badp Dude, staaaaaaaahp

badp

Private Pansy

@Powerlord You can buy codes off eBay for game bundles that come with AMD graphics card which includes Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider and another game whose name escapes my mind at the moment

user15026

6:05 PM

@badp trying to apply logic to my anxiety disorder is like trying to put my cat in a dress - pretty much impossible.

badp

I guess it's Accept My Stupidity And Shut Up O'Clock

Wipqozn

I just hope @AshleyNunn doesn't one day decide she needs to collect all the members of The Bridge and kidnaps us all and locks us up in giant jars or something.

3

FAE

@badp It's not stupidity, it's just a misunderstanding of how this works. Logical, rational thinking doesn't really apply to anxiety triggers, and trying to apply said rules can end up making someone feel more guilty/stressed over their anxiety not being easily rationalized away.

Shotgun Ninja

@Wipqozn Dude, being in a giant jar would be cool. As long as there's airholes, waste processing, and food & water supplies.

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn I think that would be lovely.

@ShotgunNinja high-five

Wipqozn

6:07 PM

@ShotgunNinja You can't live life to the fullest inside a jar!

StrixVaria

6:08 PM

Tried to buy Antichamber. The page told me the purchase failed and to contact support. I got an email thanking me for my purchase.

Wonderful.

Looked at screenshots of Endless Space. Don't feel like learning that much for a new strategy game.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria What did we learn?

fredley

Another day, another fucking Kickstarter I've backed

StrixVaria

I'll just stick with Civ 5 for my strategy needs.

Wipqozn

I never back kickstarters.

fredley

Fuck Kickstarter emptying my wallet and giving me nothing in return but empty, empty dreams

StrixVaria

6:09 PM

@OrigamiRobot It was in my game list so it's probably ok anyway.

Private Pansy

Oh, the third game in the bundle is Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. The codes are on eBay for $20, though you have to trust the seller

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria You like puzzle games?

StrixVaria

@Fluttershy I like Portal and I liked Perspective.

There are plenty of puzzle games that I don't like, though.

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria ... should enjoy Antichamber, I think. I really liked it. I got mad at it fairly often, but it is definitely fun and unique!

StrixVaria

@Fluttershy I hope I like it, since I already bought it :P

Wipqozn

6:15 PM

I hope Monaco goes on sale.

It's not on any sale at all right now.

Fluttershy

It's definitely worth $7!

badp

I'm having trouble adding stuff to the cart

StrixVaria

I hope FF7 or Mortal Kombat goes on sale even though they both just launched on Steam.

FEichinger

Hmm ... nothing I'm interested in yet.

Wipqozn

For fuck sakes wxGalde is a piece fo shit.

Fluttershy

Don't Starve and Monaco both come highly recommended by me! So if you happen to want either of those...

Wipqozn

I accidently deleted half my work and there's no way to undo it.

it also automatically saves aafter every single action.

ugh there. Got everything back. still. no undo button is fucking retarded.

@Fluttershy Don't Starve probably gets thrown in as an addition if there's something I'm buying.

@Wipqozn This seems like a poor saving procedure.

OrigamiRobot

PID controller

A proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID controller) is a generic control loop feedback mechanism (controller) widely used in industrial control systems. A PID controller calculates an "error" value as the difference between a measured process variable and a desired setpoint. The controller attempts to minimize the error by adjusting the process control inputs. The PID controller calculation algorithm involves three separate constant parameters, and is accordingly sometimes called three-term control: the proportional, the integral and derivative values, denoted P, I, and D. Si...

fredley

(Note: Jan 20th 2012)

OrigamiRobot

That is what PID means to me

fredley

@OrigamiRobot That is indeed what is being used

Shotgun Ninja

I'm assuming that's what PID means in the context of this coffee machine as well.

OrigamiRobot

6:34 PM

Why?

Shotgun Ninja

Have you ever had burnt coffee?

fredley

fredley

badp

AHAHHAHAHA just kidding. It'll brew more, because you never want less coffee.

Shotgun Ninja

I can see the benefits, but I'm both a roboticist and an avid coffee-drinker.

badp

YOUR ITEM'S BEEN ADDED

Shotgun Ninja

PID controls can carefully adjust the temperature, water flow rate, and other conditions of the coffee to evoke a much richer, more satisfying flavor and texture.

Also, they use PID-controllers for distilleries and breweries already, to regulate the brewing conditions without the need for constant human monitoring.

@ShotgunNinja It makes sense in a commercial environment, just not a personal one.

@badp I have one, but the hobs in this house are shite

Not enough temperature control to make decent coffee with one of those

Shotgun Ninja

@OrigamiRobot If they're cheap enough, then why not? We already have those single-serve pressure brewing things that sell at Wal-Mart and shit.

@fredley Hobs?

OrigamiRobot

@ShotgunNinja Because you're saving money on labor.

Shotgun Ninja

Oh, hobs are the heating elements on stovetops.

Why do you cook coffee on a stovetop?

Buy a percolator or coffee maker.

FEichinger

@badp Yes, I'm familiar with maths.

MBraedley

Why anyone would measure liquids in centilitres is beyond me as well. The only other widespread use of centi in SI is centimetres, and that's only a unit of convenience since mm are too small for many purposes.

Ronan Forman

Some 51 per cent think violent crime is rising, when it has fallen from almost 2.5 million incidents in 2006/07 to under 2 million in 2012.

@tombull89 No, we're completely unaware of this. When did that happen?

James

And do you want helpful suggestions? :D

Ronan Forman

@James Rouge.

@James I actually want some unhelpful ones.

James

@RonanForman Ah, Ok, Make sure you are an assassin then, not a ninja.

Ronan Forman

@James I am, but why?

James

@RonanForman You asked me to be unhelpful :)

Ronan Forman

@James I don't know how to be a ninja, it said I needed a class trainer.

James

@RonanForman Wooden structure in town (You can also change at level 1 for free)

Ronan Forman

@James Ah, before I leveled up.

James

@RonanForman Yeah, but .. if you really want helpful info read on: Be a ninja, they are a technical character to play but when done right you can avoid most damage and crit 90% of the time.

Ronan Forman

@James Neat.

Ah dammit, I looked away and now it's night.

James

@RonanForman Hehe
