Q: How do you design the channel work for magma forging to prevent magma crabs and building destroyers from interfering with production?

Riguefort UltraquailletteThere was an event at the forge involving magma crabs. The dwarves were smelting hematite, gold and platinum and magma crabs tried to interfere. Two of them came out of the channel from the volcano and lucky for us the dwarves reacted quickly; by the time I noticed, there was only miasma and I du...

Q: How to suggest tags?

Gamer3001Is this even an apropriate question for meta? I dont know where else to ask, but I think arquade really needs a "Growtopia" tag. http://growtopiagame.com/

Henry DillmanI'm trying to recreate the flame fairy from Mineplex, but I need a little help. I tried attaching a commandblock with: /execute @p[m=1] ~-1 ~ ~ particle flame ~ ~ ~ 10 100 10 0.5 1 to a redstone clock, but I couldn't see the particles. please help.

 
@SepiaLazers I think we answered that question good enough...
 
12:56 AM
In other news of schools having sexist dress codes
 
@Wipqozn Jeez, put that behind a link. That neckline is NSFW.
 
supposedly this outfit is considered inappropriate since her collarbone is showing.
 
#kidsthesedays
 
That's an appropriately delayed mention of that news story for a turtle
 
And are those her forearms?
Bare?
 
12:58 AM
@Yuuki SCANDALOUS!
i mean we might as well ship her off to the @spugsley creepy cave
 
@TimStone Agreed.
 
@Wipqozn Notice the lack of close-toed shoes on the right.
tsk tsk
(That's actually considered a safety hazard though, I think)
 
Can be
Usually isn't
 
1:13 AM
Not usually at school
 
arugh tired
hour to go
 
@GnomeSlice She could stub a toe!
 
@Wipqozn In lab settings sometimes it's actually a thing
In private school settings where dress code is business casual or otherwise it's also a thing but that definitely doesn't apply here
 
My high school had a policy like that regarding flipflops because they weren't securely attached to the foot, but
 
My high school was the business casual thing
For definitions of business casual meaning polo, slacks, and anything but tennis shoes or sandals
 
1:28 AM
I've never been to a school with a dress code
 
@Unionhawk Oh, if we're being serious then yes, open toe footwear is dangerous in some situations (like labwork or sports).
@TimStone I'm fine with banning flip flops since flip flops are stupid's at
 
Real sandals are where it's at
 
Your mom is wear it
That was weird.
Not sure if glitch, or I hit up twice, but seemed to take my one message up when editing.,
Anyways, the point is, I made a your mom
 
Very good we're all proud of you
 
Good
I'm proud of me too
 
1:41 AM
I'm not proud of you
 
@twobugs You gave away the sarcasm
 
2:12 AM
@Wipqozn Isnt this like a month or two old?
Like she only had the lower shirt on first
got the outer shirt

Q: Does the Xbox One automatically download app/game updates?

AeyounMy console is set to use the Instant-On power mode and I’ve checked the box allowing it to “download updates automatically” when in this mode. However, when I launch games and apps, I still see the “Oh, shoot. We need to update first” screen quite often. I’ve also noticed that items in my downlo...

Broforce is fun.
> “First and foremost, the Park Service needs to do something to make sure this never happens again,” Johnson told the Chronicle. “This park is full of tourists and schoolchildren. Something needs to change.”
I can only imagine that's followed with, "Secondly, I want to get paid. $5 million please."
 
@Sterno Yes. He needs to be banned for life.
There's the change required.

Did the tree give him permission to sleep under it? CLEARLY NOT

One thing that really confuses me is talking about the gym with people online. They always try to directly compare weights across different machines and different configurations and insult each other.
 
Fans asked the developers of #Zelda: Tri Force Heroes: “Where does the game fall in the series timeline?” https://t.co/Nt8zaCq2BE

Q: Is there a headset made thats completely wireless (including XBL chat) for the Xbox One?

CofeyThe Xbox One has been out for almost two years now. Can someone tell me if there's a headset made that's completely wireless (including Xbox Live chat) for the Xbox One? I have searched to no avail in finding one that is 100% wireless. For the past eight months, I've had an Astro A50 and the thi...

 
@AshleyNunn Meh, it'd be interesting
 
user15026
@Unionhawk Yeah maybe but not at that price
 
Indeed
That also looks like something @Wipqozn would post with a comment 'MURICA. WELL GUESS WHAT, TURTLE, THAT'S CANADA
WE DON'T HAVE A MONOPOLY ON THIS STUFF

Q: I've got a STUPID QUESTION about GOW

user475878A guy said that Kratos can destroy many universes and is able to destroy sun with one hit. Is it really the setting is? And the battle system is way better than DMC, Ninja Gaiden and Beyonetta. Is it true?

Q: Does punching (renegade) the Quarian admiral or participating in the smalltalk on Normandy affect Quarian/Geth peace?

@Lazers2.0 he's back
Time for mod to nuke that useless account...
 
5:55 AM
I don't think it's fair to assume bad faith.
It usually isn't.
 
user15026
@ShadowWizard Why does the account have to be nuked?
 
user15026
There, edited it into something halfway presentable.
 
user15026
It's not the greatest thing ever, but it's a little better.
 
URLs are not suppose to be case sensitive... right?
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy I don't think so but now you have me questioning that
 
6:00 AM
The domain name and TLD are not, but everything after that are
 
Yes
Domain and TLD definitely, everything else... Sometimes is (if there's some authentication token or something like that in the URL or something you know what I mean)
Maybe always is, I don't know
If you don't know what I mean then rest assured I probably don't either

Q: Party cinematics

John MitchellUnless I am mistaken (I could be thinking about a different game) but when in a party GW2 used to play the cinematic for both players when one player started the conversation - has this changed? Is it a toggleable option or am I just imagining the entire thing?

 
6:50 AM
@AshleyNunn well, to me this looks like a typical troll, asking pointless nonsense on purpose. Have it your way, and guess we'll see soon enough if I was right or wrong. :)
 
@PrivatePansy depends on the webserver

@badp Yes. You could have relatives in this horrific buscrash with 42 people dead
 
How did my package get delivered, then get cleared by the customs office?
Is there a customs office to the Kingdom of Private Pansy in front of my apartment?
 
@PrivatePansy >SINGAPORE, UNITED STATES
Seeing as it was fairly negative in terms of feedback, I've had to delete my meta question.
Again.
 
8:29 AM
> Unary ! performs logical negation; that is, “not”. See not for a lower precedence version of logical negation. The value of a negated operand is true (1) if the operand is false (numeric 0, string "0" , the null string, or undefined), and false ( "" ) if the operand is true.
@PrivatePansy that's what it says yes
 
US Patent 5443036 A: Method of exercising a cat
 
> Unary – performs arithmetic negation if the operand is numeric. If the operand is an identifier, a string consisting of a minus sign concatenated with the identifier is returned. Otherwise, if the string starts with a plus or minus, a string starting with the opposite sign is returned. One effect of these rules is that –bareword is equivalent to "–bareword".
Apparently this is useful for Tk
 
This is Python?
 
@badp I'm always weary of stuff like that, because it seems useful, but I never trust it to actually work how I want.
 
Wait, why is Singapore a city in the state of United States in the country of United States?

Q: Can anyone explain the order of battle in pvp for Dungeon Boss?

LokiSinclairIt seems to be completely random, i.e. my team gets an initial attack, but then the defending team may get 1 or all attacks. It appears really imbalanced to me, not that I want to go in, cast taunt and laugh or anything, but, can I affect the order of which character I can use first? Or is there ...

 
@PrivatePansy perl
@RonanForman we'd resorted to doing that at the old job because it let us iterate much much faster
We were supposed to test locally then commit, but local servers are one order of magnitude slower, point to a separate database, and they make the machine overall unusable
Well. Unusabler.
We can start-up, test, restart and retest on the shared server in the time it takes for a single local server to start-up
and have access to better quality data for the tests.
@PrivatePansy I suppose that technically the area outside Singaporean customs is not Singapore
maybe the customs for items shipped from the US are in the US embassy.
which is US territory.
OH WOW.
17 "update news" and none of them interesting

IN OTHER NEWS
The sales team wants us to add what will be effectively be our third leaderboard to the site.
 
@Wipqozn Do they use the other two at all?
 
@Wipqozn Your site will be a leader in leaderboards!
 
@RonanForman The top leaderboard is always used. The econd and third will only be showing if a client has paid for it. I'm not sure how frequently the second is booked, nor do I know about the third which doesn't exist yet. Knowintg this company, however, they will have all three booked and showing frequently enough to drive users away even faster. or ensure even more users go adblock.

Q: Creating new worlds with different users on Xbox One

C-dizzleI am very new to Minecraft, but have found that this game is rather addicting at times. A friend of mine wanted to start their own world on my Xbox One, so they logged in with their gamertag and loaded up Minecraft. We found they were able to play the tutorial, but couldn't create a new world. I...

@fredley You're a terrible person for ever creating that.
@Fluttershy Nice!
@badp Is that Lifehacks for software?
 
Dammit Microsoft I just want to buy your stupid Elite Controller and I can't even do that
 
@Sterno It could become that!
 
1:01 PM
So @badp, how's the Steam Controller?
 
We need YOUR lifehacks in video form
@SaintWacko Is it a bad or a good thing that I haven't touched it in a few days? probably a bad thing.
If you like playing Mini Metro from your couch there's no other thing!
works pretty well
 
@Sterno for ever creating that
 
@fredley I had an argument with my friend about GOB. I say GOB considers himself a magician, my friend says he considers himself an illusionist
 
@twobugs He is a magician
He performs tricks illusions
 
Thank you.

1:10 PM
I don't know if it's possible to get more pedant than arguing illusionist vs magician
 
@Unionhawk I'm pretty sure it could get worse.
 
Mmm... Nope
 
@Unionhawk What do you call a conjurer who specializes in illusions?
 
@twobugs Illusionist.
But it's not like it matters, still.
 
I'm ignoring you and insisting that the difference is pedantic
 
1:12 PM
@Unionhawk This.
 
The difference is very real!
 
PEDANTRY IS VERY REAL
 
@twobugs Your point? It's still overscrupulous.
 
@Texenox You've gone too far. I'm going to hoist you by your own petard.
 
@Unionhawk Maybe we should ask @PrivatePansy, since everything is just a figment of his imagination anyway.
 
1:13 PM
@twobugs uwot
 
@Arperum Goddammit no not this nonsense again

Q: Does Bullet type matter? (excluding shotguns)

RapitorWhen looking at gun stats, it displays their bullet type. For example, some sniper rifles shoot .338 while others shoot .308. Does this affect the performance of the gun at all?

Q: What can I punch?

GiantDuckI'd like to punch something like this to destress: I don't have one though. What general household items can I put together to fulfill the same purpose?

Oh, Lifehacks
 
@Sterno Find a baby (cc @spugsley).
 
@fredley next level: rename two variables to be homographs, then mimic, so that once you mimic --reverse, the two variables get aliased together and things might still compile but nothing will work anyway
 
It is a marginal improvement over shooting things with guns and we should be happy for them.

Yeah, that was very forced
 
Poor attempt to move messages was worse
 
@Unionhawk WELL OBVIOUSLY THE CORE CONCEPT
 
1:42 PM
room topic changed to The Bridge: The general Arqade room chat, Where we talk about any old tat, We happen to find, But for one thing, mind: Games, we don't talk about that. [-android-enthusiasts] [-context] [-fun] [-games] [jin-fanclub] [lazers] [-mercy] [-nice-things] [ontology-with-p-pansy]
