user15026
@djsmiley2k as far as wut inducing questions go on this site, that's nothing
 
@AshleyNunn Wanna see something cute?
 
user15026
@Yuuki always
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah. That's pretty tame, compared to this one:

Q: HOW EVERYTHING OUT

user53014The word in square brackets is the alt text, which gets displayed if the browser can't show the image. Be sure to include meaningful alt text for screen-reading software

Which, incidentally, spawned an Arqade meme due to the tenacity of the poster.
 
12:20 AM
@Frank Ah, the classic HOW EVERYTHING OUT.
 
@Yuuki The very first.
 
Incidentally, I've always wondered how everything in.
 
And the one we took seriously, for some odd reason, and migrated to meta.
 
12:32 AM
@AshleyNunn Kitten massage not cute enough?
 
user15026
@Yuuki Sorry, I was sneezing my lungs out
 
sigh
The Odyssey is getting quite boring

Q: concerns about playstation network

Jesse AdamsI bought a playstation network card for my account then a couple days later I bought my brother one.I didnt know at the time u can share online acounts it was 2 of the 3 month ones does that mean I have 6 months of online ? That would be awsome if so ?

 
@spugsley In case you didn't get it, either because banter bug or you don't run with these two often, here's one of Iron Bull's and Solas's banters. They play a chess game, a rather famous one at that, in their heads.
 
user15026
12:51 AM
@Yuuki I don't even play this and it fascinates me
 
@AshleyNunn It's a rather well-known, at least in chess circles, game.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Yes, I know :)
 
I came back from one week of duty and I'm still alive!
 
So Houston traffic has reached the Reddit front page.
Most accurate comment I've seen in awhile:
> I usually tell people that the key to successful driving in Houston is to let go of your fear of death. If you can do that, you'll be ok.
 
Time to go get new monitors!
 
12:59 AM
@Frank Yay! Can you send me one? :D
@PrivatePansy Army?
 
@RPiAwesomeness No. :P
 
@Frank dangit
 
Yup. Survived on less than 5 hours of sleep for an entire work week
 
I'm think I'm going to spend half my off day today paying back the sleep debt
 
1:01 AM
@PrivatePansy That's a good idea
Are you overseas?
 
No, just came back two weeks ago from an overseas exercise
 
Ah
Well, at least you aren't being shot at!
Back and forth the boat carered like a bowl of tumbleweed
lol, the style of writing in Greek Literature
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy Yay
 
Good gravy. What's it with movie reboots...?
First Jurassic Park, now Terminator
 
1:06 AM
Also watched all of Kill la Kill within two weekends
 
@RPiAwesomeness At least Jurassic Park has a sensible name.
 
@Yuuki lol
 
New Terminator is subtitled "Genisys".
Like some angsty teenager got in the director's chair for a day.
 
Yeah, you know, there's Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. Like Disney Land and Disney World. Duh.

@Unionhawk You dun spelt it wrong /sarcasm
 
1:08 AM
NO U
 
But yeah, Hollywood's so out of ideas. If you're going to remake movies, at least remake movies whose original audience has died already...
 
@Unionhawk NO U MOMMA
 
:O
 
@Yuuki ikr...
 
I mean, I would love to see a remake of this film:
12 Angry Men is a 1957 American drama film adapted from a teleplay of the same name by Reginald Rose. Written and co-produced by Rose himself and directed by Sidney Lumet, this trial film tells the story of a jury made up of 12 men as they deliberate the guilt or acquittal of a defendant on the basis of reasonable doubt. In the United States, a verdict in most criminal trials by jury must be unanimous. The film is notable for its almost exclusive use of one set: with the exception of the film's opening, which begins outside on the steps of the courthouse followed by the judge's final instructions...
 
1:10 AM
@Yuuki what about Tron. That's not even that old and they remade it
 
Granted, it's probably not suited for Hollywood's target audience, considering the complete lack of violence and explosions. And sex.
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness I could happily watch more of that tbh
 
user15026
Tron makes me happy
 
@AshleyNunn Tron is awesome. I have yet to see the new one though :(
@Yuuki lol
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness do it do it do it do it seriously so worth it
 
1:11 AM
@AshleyNunn ik.
 
Criticize them all you want for remaking not-really-that-old-movies, it's going to make millions at the box office opening and we all know it.
 
@RPiAwesomeness That wasn't a remake. :o That was a sequel.
 
@AshleyNunn BTW, did you ever look up the band Red?
 
Blanket statement.
 
@Fluttershy Sorta...
 
1:11 AM
@RPiAwesomeness There's no "sorta" about it. It was 100% a sequel
 
@Unionhawk Oh yeah, it's gonna make them tons of money at the box office. And I absolutely hate it.
 
@Unionhawk Blankets don't talk
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness I remember you mentioning it ,not sure if I did because my brain is like a sieve sometimes
 
yawns
Office days are the worst
 
@Yuuki Yeah, well, it works, so
 
1:12 AM
@Fluttershy Really? Like I said, I haven't seen it
 
user15026
@Fluttershy There should be more. I would love more.
 
@RPiAwesomeness Yep! It was a direct sequel to the original. :D And it was great.
 
Well... I guess you could argue the new Terminator is more sequel than proper reboot.
 
I don't know what to tell you other than it works
 
@Fluttershy Ah
 
1:13 AM
And when they do movies that aren't even that old, they get bonus nostalgia viewers.
 
TRON: Legacy was very pretty, but the story felt like nonsense
@AshleyNunn How about TRON: Uprising?
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy I liked it, but I liked the original more.
 
@Unionhawk We're eventually going to settle into a 10-15 year reboot/remake cycle, I'm telling you.
 
Yep
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy I never watched it. Should I?
 
1:15 AM
@Yuuki And nothing original will ever come out of Hollywood ever again?
 
Originality is too expensive
 
@PrivatePansy The only non-series non-adaptation original movie I can recall seeing recently is Interstellar.
I guess Frozen and Big Hero 6 if you allow for wild departure from the source material.
 
user15026
As long as the stuff doesn't suck monkey balls, I don't mind things based on things I've already seen
 
No, anything with source material cannot be considered "original" - but pretty much what @AshleyNunn just said, if it's not terrible, it doesn't matter too too much
 
@AshleyNunn I liked it, but the series is on hiatus with no news of renewing for a second season, the show basically ended on a cliffhanger
 
1:17 AM
Then again, Foxcatcher and Birdman weren't available at my local theatres.
So there's that too.
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy Oh, boo
 
user15026
@Yuuki I know Birdman was at the one indie theatre here (I saw the adverts going past it onthe bus)
 
Americans have a terrible inability to let go of their favorite things. It's evident in the comics industry and now it's creeping into the movie industry.
 
Yes
Holy crap
What
 
@Unionhawk That's Houston traffic for you.

Q: Auto Unzip Files?

TheGammaMageWhen I download a mincraft resource pack three things show up, assets, pack.mcmeta, and pack.png. should this be a zipped file? I use an ACER laptop with windows 7. If it does auto unzip, please tell me how to turn that feature off.

Q: PS4 dead - will my saves be recoverable?

Laurbert515My PS4 seems to be dead (I will explain what it is doing after I ask the question) but my question is: If I have to send it in for repairs and/or get a new one - will my data be completely wiped? Specifically I am worried / wondering about Diablo 3. Is my character (along with items) saved on the...

 
It's also the less busy of our two main highway loops.
 
@Unionhawk I know being stuck on a closed road is terrible but I question the wisdom of turning around and going the wrong way down an on ramp.
 
Apparently that one was downed power lines
 
@Unionhawk Here's another Houston traffic situation: Imagine bumper-to-bumper traffic. Sounds pretty normal, right? Well, in Houston, those cars are going ~85 mph.
 
1:23 AM
Remind me to never live in Texas
 
@Unionhawk I always tell people: in Houston, everyone drives like they're auditioning for NASCAR.
Especially on the loops.
 
Oh, I saw someone with Ohio plates driving terribly today. It made me think of blame you, @Unionhawk (I don't know anyone else who lives in Ohio, sorry)
 
Yeah, I mean, I think terrible driving is a nationwide thing.
 
@TimStone when I see terrible driving, no matter the plates, I blame @Wipqozn
 
We all want to say "oh, drivers around here are the worst don't know how to drive in the rain etc etc" - except literally everyone says that.
So if everyone says that... then who's driving terribly???
 
1:26 AM
People from Jersey. It's always people from Jersey.
@MattGiltaji Also acceptable.
 
user15026
Discussions like this remind me how I am mostly happy I don't drive
 
@MattGiltaji Good idea that
@Unionhawk But you can own guns and nobody cares!
 
@Unionhawk I don't think I've said Houston drivers are the worst. I've just described the horrific things we do.
Police officers no longer pull over people for speeding on the highways because too many of them (police officers) have been killed in collisions during a pull-over.
 
@Yuuki O.O
 
@RPiAwesomeness But the interstate speed limit is 85
(or is it 80 observed 85?)
 
1:30 AM
@Unionhawk So...Moar Speedz!
jk, I totally understand you
 
No, it's 85 observed 90, I am assuming.
 
@Unionhawk In-city speed limit is ~60 and people still drive 85-ish.
 
@Yuuki That's... 25 ov-- wh-- okay
 
There's over the speed limit and over the f--kin' speed limit.
 
@Unionhawk wh-- okay is probably a good thing to say. This is Texas we're talking about
 
user15026
1:32 AM
@Unionhawk I am frustrated because I can't figure that out in km/h but it feels fast
 
I mean, it's not quite reckless driving territory (in ohio, reckless driving is automatically added at 30 over), but it's still well above... okay
 
Drive the speed limit in Houston and you will get run off the road if you're on 610 or another major highway.
@AshleyNunn ~136 kph.
 
user15026
THAT IS TOO MUCH FAST
 
It's not so bad if you're doing it during off-peak hours, but close-to-peak-but-before/after-rush-hour will get you in trouble.
 
1:34 AM
@AshleyNunn It is indeed. There's talk of raising the Highway max around here from 70 to 80...
 
Yay me...the beginning driver...
 
5 over on the highway is a pretty accepted standard around here. My brain cannot comprehend 25 over
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness NO.
 
@Unionhawk Yeaah...
 
user15026
1:35 AM
And this is yet another reason America scares me
 
70 is a good speed. 80 is quite fast.
75 is a decently happy medium
But 70 is good
 
'Murica. Home of the speeding, obese, in debt people
 
It's the "65 observed 70" I've gotten used to
 
And Texans
 
I will admit, I do speed on the highways.
But it's kinda necessary for survival.
 
1:36 AM
Well yes
 
This is definitely the better one for Texas:
Except, not 5 mph
 
On a scale from 1 to 10, how likely am I to be hit by a car traveling at 85 miles per hour sitting in DFW?
 
@Unionhawk depends if your ginormous hat and cowboy boots are exerting enough gravity to pull the car to you
 
@MattGiltaji that's a good point
 
Suppose I'm in civilian, just-passing-through-don't-mind-me clothing.
 
1:41 AM
@Unionhawk it's Texas, the hat and boots are mandatory
 
It's the airport, and I'm making a connection.
 
that was so racist...
facepalm
 
Oh, okay, so only a tiny section of Texas is 85
This is reassuring
Oh good, there's a backlog on pebble support (apparently my order failed, and I wanted to see if they could get me the $20 off cyber Monday deal)

@RPiAwesomeness As prevalent as cows are in Texas, there aren't that many by the major interstates.
 
@Yuuki :)
 
Probably because ranchers are tired of them being hit by cars.
@spugsley WHEEEEEEEEEEERE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE YOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUU???!!!
 
@Yuuki That looks small for an iPhone. Or maybe it's just a big calculator
 
It looks like a rather old iphone
 
1:48 AM
@Yuuki Well, she can go boil her head
 
> "These can only develop when predictable quality standards are available".
Well, yeah. The ISPs should provide predictable quality standards. For everyone. 'Cause it's what they're paid for.
 
@TimStone Apparently not here in America. :P
 
facepalm
 
that doesn't seem like something IT sanctioned
 
1:53 AM
And we wonder why internet security is so sucky
 
more like someone in a department who "knows computers real good"
 
Err those sound like the kinds of passwords that the marketing people would have, not the IT department. That the marketing people had lax password security is a surprise to no one, not sure why it's automatically pinned on their IT people.
Plus the real WTF here is the Lotus Notes folder. GTFO Sony.
 
although I shouldn't talk, I know my boss has a wide open excel file with all the master passwords in it
 
and the passwords also written down in a notebook
handwritten, so that its difficult to tell which characters are what
 
1:55 AM
I just like Excel Passwords.xlsx
 
user15026
@TimStone We use Lotus Notes at work and I hate it
 
user15026
@TimStone Yeah, this doesn't strike me as IT stupid, it strikes me as non-IT people stupid

ArceusMaster0493There's this file called item.csv in the dumps folder. I opens it and it's basically a table with all these information of blocks and items. So, I see a column saying "HasBlock". I scroll down and realize that TRUE means you can place that item and FALSE means you can't place that item. So I'm...

 
user15026
@MattGiltaji my dad does this, but he doesn't own a company (they're his home passwords)
 
@AshleyNunn I still cringe, but it's not as bad
 
2:01 AM
@AshleyNunn Well, if you've got somewhere safe, a notebook page stored at home with complex passwords isn't terrible
 
user15026
Honestly, if anyone actually broke into their house, I'd be shocked......
 
user15026
(They live in a very tiny close knit farming community)
 
I mean, it's not like someone's gonna flip through a bunch of paper and notebooks if they break into your house
 
Distraction!
 
user15026
@Yuuki Why this thing
 
user15026
2:04 AM
Also did they set up a pseudo bathroom in their kitchen?
 
@AshleyNunn Someone thought toilet time did not include enough chance of disembowelment.
 
@Yuuki O.O
 
user15026
Yeah, I kinda want my toilet experiences to be a little safer

Q: How do I get the keys for the Evil Spirit Club Floor 2?

ReafexusTo get through the second floor of the Evil Spirit Club you need to get two keys again. These seem to be a similar puzzle. What do you have to do to get the second set of keys?

 
Just in case someone hasn't watched this video:
 
Finding wallpapers should not be this hard.
 
Your criteria is "I have 4 monitors."

@Unionhawk No, my criteria is, "I need two at a specific resolution, and two at a different resolution"
 
What resolution?

Q: How do I power a pump with a Reactor

VirusboySo, I built a 5 x 5 reactor. My next question cannot be as easily answered any where else. Can I power a BC Factory Pump with A Big Reactor Yellorium passively cooled 5 x 5 reactor. Bonus: What site can point me to what all can be powered by a reactor.

 
@Unionhawk 2560x1080, and 1920x1080
 
Two pretty common resolutions. Yep, got nothing.
 
@Unionhawk Exactly my problem.
 
3:35 AM
So you're finding lots of stuff searching for those resolutions, but nothing good
Heh

Q: How do I get passed the switch puzzle in the Evil Spirit Club Floor 2?

ReafexusIn the south west corner of the Evil Spirit Club there are four room with FOE's and switches. I need to press the switches in the correct order. How can I figure out this order.

 
@Lazers I can't remember. Do we keep these or send them to BCG?
 
@murgatroid99 Is he playing the card game? Or the video game?
 
4:02 AM
@Frank The [magic-2013] tag implies that it's Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013, but it could also be a misuse of the tag
 
Honestly, they're a better fit on BCG. I don't really buy the "well if he's playing the video game..." argument.
 
OK, it's probably a misuse anyway
The card he mentions doesn't appear in that game
Which is probably because it was first printed this year
 
@Unionhawk A little bit of overlap is fine, if it can be answered both here or BCG. It's not a huge deal.
 
@Frank ... @TrentHawkins, are you on @Frank's computer?
 
@Yuuki Nope, it's me.
 
4:08 AM
I flagged it for migration, on the grounds that they're probably not even playing the video game in the first place
 
@Frank That is both helpful and extremely not at the same time.
 
@Yuuki Want me to punt you across the map? :P
 
@Frank Ha! Now I know it's @TrentHawkins! @Frank would gunlance-shot me instead! Or that one time when you did it with WyvernFire.
