The Bridge

7:00 PM

Which is why Destiny has been getting lackluster reviews in that regard, they want every piece of information just told to them, not wanting to think or figure it out for themselves

James

@Rapitor Ive been told by my viewers you unlock a lot of the lore on bungi.net where you have to go to read up on it

Rapitor

@James yeah, the Grimiore has a lot, but so does the game world itself. Instead of just blindly running and gunning, take a look around. Examine your kills and you may just discover some hidden bits of info about them. Stop and look at some of the architecture, especially where you currently are in The World's Grave (moon temple)

Q: Do all floors with the same game offer the same payout?

Let's say I have two (or more) floors with the same game (poker, slots, etc). Will each of them offer the same payout for playing as the others of the same game? Or is there a difference in payout? If there is no difference in payout, is look/name of the floor the only thing that makes it differ...

@Rapitor Dude, just watch youtube videos!

James

Like this one :)

FAE

@James I really wish they would've included the Grimoire stuff ingame. :/ It adds a lot of info and lore bits that you don't see at all. Stuff like, y'know, where the hell the Exos came from.

James

@FAE Yeah it should be in the game, even if its just an interface that loads in web pages, hehe

Probably hard to get that ok'd by sony and ms's TRC teams though

Rapitor

7:29 PM

@FAE not same experience

FAE

@James Including a codex like games like Mass Effect had would've made it so that wouldn't be an issue though. And it's not like that menu would be "disruptive" or anything if it were ingame. People who could ignore it if they wanted to, could, and people who wanted to be able to read what card it is they just picked up without having to go to their laptop or find the card in the app, could.

James

@FAE I would imagine it was more of a 'they dont have it done yet' sort of thing. So they could take the time and update the content whenever they want when its on their website instead of in the game.

RPi Awesomeness

@James Watched the $1000 horse video :) Well, the part where he feeds the horse the apple anyways

James

Don't need to get it checked by sony and ms to add in more lore content.

@RPiAwesomeness haha, The :O look on his face is awesome :)

RPi Awesomeness

yeah :D

He's all spazzing out about opening the inventory

Rapitor

7:33 PM

@James there is stuff in the Grimiore that isn't in the game yet, like a lot

RPi Awesomeness

And then he's all, nahah. Y'all can't feed this thing anything less than notch apples

James

@RPiAwesomeness Hehe, Yeah that was good too :)

That damn video got me stuck at work till 9pm last night though

RPi Awesomeness

Yay earbuds that tangle :P

@JasonBerkan What counts as "obsolete"?

Jason Berkan

Frankly, I'm shocked at how quickly we replace our hardware nowadays.

@FAE Don't put iOS 8 on it.

FAE

@JasonBerkan mmm cheap, foreign plastic

@James Ah, I can see that. Still frustrating though. :/

RPi Awesomeness

Bah. I despise writing speeches/oral reports, especially on the topic of The Federalist Papers.

Q: How can I make my cats survive winter?

I'm playing Kittens Game. I was doing ok, and then winter came. I have 50 catnip fields (the cost for another is current >50% of my max catnip [5000]). However, this appears to be too little food to even feed a single cat through winter. How do I make my cats survive winter? I noticed there ...

Q: What is the difference between the two 'Story Mission' Icons?

On Destiny, there appears to be two different icons for story missions: one slightly smaller with just a star (e.g. Earth - The Dark Within). one larger with a star within 'wings' (e.g. Earth - Restoration) What do these different icons represent? See the image below:

RPi Awesomeness

I'm just stating what I feel. I wasn't saying anything about anyone else

FAE

@RPiAwesomeness That is a really, deeply offensive and ignorant statement.

RPi Awesomeness

Hey, I was just stating what I would feel. I'm not making a statement for anyone else

People are entitled to their opinions aren't we?

Batophobia

Not on the Bridge

RPi Awesomeness

Sorry, I wasn't trying to offend anyone

@Batophobia Apparently not...

Batophobia

7:42 PM

then again, the Bridge is all about offensive things

badp

Batophobia

@badp Not enough mod abuse in your diet?

you sound kinda sick

No, too much attitude in my screenful

@RPiAwesomeness You're entitled to your opinion, just as they're entitled to express their disapproval of said opinion.

RPi Awesomeness

@Frank Yes

Origami Robot

7:44 PM

@RPiAwesomeness If you say "If I was a woman", you are making a statement for someone else.

user15026

@RPiAwesomeness And I am entitled to mine, and mine is that I disagree and find that statement horrendously offensive.

user15026

@OrigamiRobot There is that as well.

badp

@Batophobia If you feel that the Bridge is too SJW-y for your tastes you can always leave.

FAE

@RPiAwesomeness I don't know if you're just unfamiliar with the subject in general, but if you were a woman and a transgendered person were to be in your locker room, she would be a trans woman, she is not a man.

user15026

@FAE This as well.

RPi Awesomeness

7:45 PM

@FAE I hadn't really thought of it in that sense.

I stand corrected.

user15026

And if I were a lady and someone else who is a lady (regardless of anything, if they tell me "I am a lady" they are a lady) is also in the dressing room, I would be like "yo, sup, can you help me tie my skates because I am rubbish at it"

Meh, stop segregating genders by forcing them into special bathrooms and such

RPi Awesomeness

@OrigamiRobot ??

user15026

7:46 PM

@Batophobia Sorry, but I would feel super not okay sharing my bathroom with male-identified persons.

Origami Robot

@AshleyNunn And they would say "l2tie noob!"

user15026

I see the need for a gender neutral option, but I don't think "everyone in one washroom" is always the best way

user15026

@OrigamiRobot More than likely, yes.

Batophobia

@AshleyNunn Which is a sexist statement just as "I'm not okay with sharing with some [ethnic]-identified" is racist

badp

7:47 PM

@Batophobia ...no, it's not.

Unionhawk

I... no, I don't think those are the same thing.

Origami Robot

I just want the bathroom to myself in all cases.

Frank

Okay, this is getting a little bit beyond mild discussion.

murgatroid99

@AshleyNunn Why is it OK to be uncomfortable with sharing a bathroom/changing room with someone based on gender identity, but not sex? I honestly don't understand

Rapitor

these topics...

make no sense

user15026

7:47 PM

@murgatroid99 I got raped in a shared bathroom.

Mad Scientist

@Batophobia You might not want to follow that line of thought, I don't think it would end anywhere constructive

user15026

Therefore, I have some fear.

user15026

Anyone else want to argue that with me?

RPi Awesomeness

@badp /me follows suit

Batophobia

@MadScientist I'm merely stating that the same logic is being used. I don't care what the outcome is

RPi Awesomeness

7:48 PM

@AshleyNunn No, you have a legit reason.

user15026

I am not saying the arugment is good or bad of me, I am saying "I no longer feel safe in this environment because things happened"

Origami Robot

I don't think @murgatroid99 was arguing. He was asking a legitimate question to further his own understanding.

Origami Robot

@AshleyNunn Understandably.

Frank

Can we talk about something else now? I'm getting awfully uncomfortable with this one.

Mad Scientist

@Batophobia Those are not exactly comparable situations. And by adding racism you're just escalating a topic that is already heated up enough

Origami Robot

Origami Robot

7:49 PM

@FAE get on this!

user15026

I am going to go back to crocheting and working.

FAE

@Batophobia Yes, it can, which is why some people feel legitimately unsafe in many situations, especially people who have been victims of sexual violence. That's why that fear should not be undermined, by anyone, ever.

Mad Scientist

Frank

@MadScientist Image not found is best bunny not found.

RPi Awesomeness

However, someone can say they're so-and-so gender and get access, but not have good intentions. It would seem to me there are plenty of men in this world like that.

Anyways.

7:51 PM

user15026

@Batophobia Alright, now that I have taken some deep breaths - yes, it could. The world is sometimes terrible. But here's the thing, everyone deserves to identify how they like, and thus be treated in whatever way according to the gender etc that they present as.

Batophobia

@MadScientist Change the sexual pieces to race, religion, political preference, etc. and you are using the same logic for a different conclusion. In the end, generalizing is always wrong

RPi Awesomeness

Mad Scientist

@Frank Works for me, but maybe I stumbled upon an image with some hotlinking protection

Frank

@MadScientist I suspect you did.

Origami Robot

7:52 PM

I think the point @Batophobia is trying to make is "in a perfect world, we would not need separate restrooms", but this is not a perfect world and we do need them because some people are terrible, horrible no-good, very bad people.

Pvt. Grichmann

@RPiAwesomeness Because they play with mice?

Grace Note

@JasonBerkan Coincidentally there's no hamster in the image.

RPi Awesomeness

@Frank Sorta...cause they're much more safe when they're jumpy and sneaky and batty and pouncy. Dogs ... tend to be more Nuclear Holocaust than minor couch ripping

Jason Berkan

@GraceNote What's the rat-like thing?

Grace Note

A mouse

Or possible a rat

The rat-like thing could very well, indeed, just be a rat, like, an actual rat.

Arperum

isn't a chinchilla an option too?

doesn't look mouse or rat to me.

It surely counts as catfood though if you look at the kitten.

Batophobia

Looks like a gerbil

Frank

Speaking of Bela, I should get a video of her playing with her hanging mouse. She's hilarious when playing with it.

@Batophobia Gerbil! That's the word I was trying to think of.

Frank

@AshleyNunn Bela's pretty squaky. She keeps making different noises, depending on what she's doing.

murgatroid99

Argh, I hate when people don't understand that just because your question references the topic of the site, it doesn't make it on-topic

The issue is this question on board games.

Frank

@murgatroid99 There's a tag! Therefore everything related to the tag must be on-topic!

That reasoning happens quite often here, most often on legal

murgatroid99

And this is also why I hate the "old questions" precedent.

"Some questions from most of the site's age ago asked about this, so it must be OK"

Frank

@murgatroid99 I just use, "Oh, thanks for pointing me at more off-topic questions! I have voted to close those, too."

murgatroid99

8:31 PM

It's basically the boat programming problem, except only people who use SO would get that.

Frank

Can we get a mod burn on this question? Somehow, the migration or something prevents me from casting a delete vote.

murgatroid99

@Frank How did closing it as off-topic not send it back?

Unionhawk

Migration was rejected, and the related post on SU is gone

murgatroid99

@Unionhawk Oh, I misread it. I thought it was migrated from SU.

Unionhawk

@murgatroid99 It was

I think

murgatroid99

8:39 PM

OK, that's a confusing error message

Unionhawk

Yeah, I don't know if that's SU's "for reasons of moderation" error or if something messed up.

Frank

@murgatroid99 I believe it was.

Then we closed it, rejecting the migration.

Jason Berkan

It was migrated from SU: gaming.stackexchange.com/posts/165376/revisions

Frank

The original's gone, but something is wonky, because I can't cast a delete vote.

murgatroid99

It seems like they deleted the original, which rejected our rejection, leaving the post in a weird intermediate state

Unionhawk

8:41 PM

I feel like community should have cleaned that up.

Frank

@Unionhawk It should have.

meme scientist

Unionhawk

I think the fact that rejected migrations get locked by community kept it from getting purged.

Yep, that's definitely it.

Wait, maybe

I think just something screwed up

Frank

Something. I just mod-flagged it, so hopefully it goes kaboom soon.
