Q: Can we rename the [mgs-5-online] tag to [metal-gear-online-3]?

@NBN-Alex Realm Grinder. Possibly the best I've played.

Sepia Lazers

I understand that this tag is currently as it is due to it being the online portion of to Metal Gear Solid V, but it's actual title of this portion of the game is Metal Gear Online 3. Would it not be a good idea for the game's tag match the game's title?

4:33 PM

@ardaozkal i believe the word you were looking for was "infosec professional" or "infosec analyst". are you looking for a book on code security, general security, or security policy?

good morning bridge

@Ohnana general and policy

@ardaozkal for policy, the book they recommended was good. for general... that is a larger question.

He should be able to check for exploits

so more of a "penetration test" , ie looking for things that are bad?

Q: How can I build a redstone-using vehicle?

I tried to build a redstone vehicle in Minecraft (vanilla), but my attempts proved futile. I tried to build it using pistons, wire and some pushable blocks, but it didn't work, because the wire breaks. Also, when I used redstone blocks right in front of the pistons, they haven't extended.

I keep hoping they'll remake it in Unity or something, but man, it's a good game

@nukeforum going from one browser crasher to another doesn't exactly bode well

Q: How do you unlock the cages?

0

I've seen several cages that have an obvious padlock on the front of them, but I can't figure out how to open them. I've tried using the Treasure Key dropped from the boss, but that won't open it. No other monsters appear to drop any keys, and the cage appears to be immune to damage.

@Ohnana rekt

@GodEmperorDune I haven't had my browser crash from flash in probably 6+ years, I've only had the Unity plugin crash once, ever

git gud

flash may have vulnerabilities, and Unity might be memory intensive, but i'm tired of this apocryphal junk about them being the most unstable thing that's ever happened to browsers

5:01 PM

@nukeforum both are much more unstable than html5 and js

@GodEmperorDune I won't deny that, and that's not what I'm arguing

but it's getting to be as bad as the "microsoft is so crash-y and bad, hurr hurr"

then what would you classify as the most unstable thing to happen to browsers?

activex? applets?

Does /blink still work by the way?

Deprecated iirc

Or w/e

It would depend on the browser anyway

Deep dream is scary

Original picture

25 years later, still deprecated but MS Edge 11 and Google Electrum still support /blink tags

21 years later, microsoft still thinks IE is a thing that should exist

5:09 PM

@Dragonrage to be fair, there are so many companies with internal junk built to run only on IE that microsoft ending it would be a nonstarter for upgrading windows

Kevin van der Velden

@GodEmperorDune it's not like those things run on edge anyway

At least, that's what I've heard

ActiveX has to be the biggest mistke since Anime

Guild of Dungeoneering is... interesting.

@KevinvanderVelden yeah i'm lucky to not be working at one of those places so no idea

if you unistall IE, you can break your computer

5:15 PM

Is that still true on Win10?

So, there's a much bigger emphasis on base building.

Especially since your dungeoneers don't have persistent levels.

They level up within dungeons, but they always start dungeons at L1.

@NBN-Alex I don't know if removing edge will break windows 10, havent tried it

Expanding your guild can boost a dungeoneer's surivivability, damage, and loot capabilities in the first few fights.

Oh, your dungeoneers also start each dungeon with no equipment.

@Dragonrage Not running 10 here due to work, but I would hope that "separation of church and state" is true now in Win10

... Why did someone tag this with RPG? Sure, there are a few RPG elements in parts of the game, but it's not anywhere close to what anyone would deign to even speculate as an RPG.

5:19 PM

@Dragonrage there is IE in W10 too

^ IE is amazing on Win10 by the way

StrixVaria

I didn't even know I had Edge on my home computer, running Windows 10.

So at the very least, it doesn't bother you about defaults like it once did.

Microsoft Edge is a "trusted" UI App and a core part of the Windows 10 Operating System; it can't be removed by conventional means, just like Internet Explorer could not be removed from previous versions of Windows by conventional means.

especially compared to Edge, I usually just drop a like to IE for clients if they're not on Chrome/Firefox already

@Dragonrage Good to know they didn't learn their lesson. :|

also removing IE may cause problems in windows 10

5:47 PM

@Arperum Because we must click. We must become good or evil, and we must excavate!

@nukeforum Evil. Evil for certain.

@Arperum Just wait until you're farming reincarnations, it's basically dwairies like 75% of the time

@nukeforum first reincarnation seems to require stupid amount of gems.

@Arperum Seems like a lot, but don't sweat it, it goes fast if you pay attention to what you're doing. Whenever I have to restart from scratch, I go gobs first

@nukeforum Also: who are you on kongregate?

5:53 PM

Their racial spell randomly builds buildings which means you can randomly get hall of legends

nukeforum

it boosts your early income by a lot

also, pay attention to the timed trophies, if you do it wrong, you can spend months trying to get the balance trophy

@nukeforum I'm wolfbrother (that account is ancient)

I have joined the darkside, I have started answering questions on lifehacks.

@Arperum I'll add you once I'm home from work

@nukeforum I added you, so you probably get some mail/messgae about that.

can you change your username on kongregate?

5:57 PM

@Arperum sounds good.

@Dragonrage don't think so.

:(

or not for free anyway.

Or you couldn't years ago.

@nukeforum What's that one?

@SaintWacko realm-grinder.wikia.com/wiki/Trophies -> ctrl/cmd+f "Equality"

There's a neutral alignment with 3 factions that you unlock via excavation + special conditions

that's the third alignment they're talking about

6:08 PM

How can you even see your playtime for a faction?

@Dragonrage No, you cannot

trust me

@Arperum The stats tab

@nukeforum Nope, no time measurement noted anywhere.

@Arperum Scroll down?

@nukeforum ok, did not notice that option before...

6:11 PM

It happens

so you basically have to be good for a day, evil for a day and neutral for a day?

pretty much

I got nearly 30 minutes of neutral, for starting oup the game and then ignoring it for some time.

ANd because of shit luck I keep getting good aligned faction coins, and way less evil aligned faction coins

Isn't that good?

@GnomeSlice Not if you picked evil alignment.

6:20 PM

Get on my level, you poor shibes!

No thanks, I'm fine without playing Dogeminer

@ardaozkal i'm at 24 mil/sec and i started after you

if you havent played Dogeminer, you havent lived

@GodEmperorDune I'm at 25.5m

@ardaozkal now 34m

6:21 PM

All those games are dumb

@GnomeSlice Yes. but still we play.

you're neglecting the lesser doges

Haha

Yeah i played that too

still dumb

@GnomeSlice not true, i have enlightened cats

I like incrementers but I think I'll sit this one out

Feeling burned out on them after Adventure Capitalist

6:23 PM

number go up

i switched to ad cap on mobile and its fun

Yeah I played the mobile version for a bit but it was a little too easy to "beat" Earth

i ignore it for a while and mainly play during events

and the other planets seem dumb

@twobugs I'm skipping the doge one too. And adventure capitalist doesn't ring a bell.

6:24 PM

The event was okay but I beat that pretty quickly too

mars was ridiculously easy, moon was tough

yeah this event was super short

i liked the last one better

I only played for this one

I wanted to like clicker heroes but the mobile version sucks

You have to have it open to actually progress through levels

yeah clicker heroes blows without an autoclicker

and all the tools that evolved from the web version

10B Wives was easily the worst one but you also got cute pictures of Anime Women so whatever

Light of Speed is officially broken by CERN

6:26 PM

For 10B Wives you have to actually leave your phone open to get 100% rate even while idle

that sucks

if its a mobile incremental, offline idle should be mandatory

user15026

@GodEmperorDune Agreed.

You get idle but at a significantly reduced rate

user15026

Vlogger Go Viral was pretty good abut that.

And there's no prestige, so the last few upgrades are just grind

I remember when that was a thing

@murgatroid99 did it turn out to be true?

6:33 PM

@fredley If it costs 50 billion dogecoin to go to the moon, then why is there a rocket that goes to the moon for 100 thousand dogecoin?

@murgatroid99 what? Just saw it.

@GodEmperorDune No, instrument error

@GodEmperorDune No, it was an equipment calibration error

weak

@ardaozkal It's an article from 2011

6:33 PM

@ardaozkal The date I mentioned is the date on the article

dammit faction coins.

@murgatroid99 I remember that finding, but I thought it was a new article so yeah.

Me too

@Yuuki I did too until I saw "neutrinos". Nobody would make the exact same claim as last time without a lot more evidence

user15026

6:35 PM

Dear phone, you have 441 MB of space, the app is 27 MB, why do you keep telling me there is not enough space?

Well, quitting this incremental because it makes even less sense than previous incrementals.

@Yuuki which one?

@GodEmperorDune The dogecoin one.

@Yuuki very sadness, much :(

The stated goal is to raise 50B dogecoin to get to the moon.

You can get a moon rocket for 100K dogecoin.

And a moonbase for 1M dogecoin.

6:36 PM

yeah but that's not you, the primary doge

@Yuuki If you don't mind flash there is realm grinder on Kongregate.

those are expendable doge

You have a moonbase. That implies you can get there and back reliably.

Heck, even the fact that you're getting dogecoin from the shibes on the moon means that you can get there and back reliably.

nah those evolve into doge death stars

I mean, I know incrementals aren't supposed to make any sense but at least the ones with stated goals don't have you achieve the supposed goal before you're even halfway through your first "prestige" or whatever.

6:39 PM

just launched and i missed the doge JFK speech

There we go, turbo.ahk adjusted for the click limiting technology

@Unionhawk Yeah, I had issues with that

Realm Grinder has no click limiter

@SaintWacko It does a time check between clicks, and if the difference is 50 ms it does some magic

@Unionhawk Ah, I wondered what was happening

Mhmm

So as long as your script is sleeping at least 51 ms between click downs it's good

6:50 PM

@nukeforum you suggest going with goblin faction first?

@GodEmperorDune I actually have an idle build that produces faster earlier than a click build. I used that one for the mobil app.

@Arperum Yeah, just for the spell that builds random buildings

it's a chance to get halls before you have enough money

and they're a huge income gain

maybe it was too strong

user15026

7:19 PM

@Powerlord so, you have a twin sister... if you will not be turned, then perhaps she will

@Arperum if you wanna go passive, go w/ demon, if you wanna sit and click for a bit, go w/ elves

@MattE.Эллен people will get it confused with math.se because complements are a thing in math

user15026

@twobugs So far, I like it. But I love the Mario and Luigi games, so.

@nukeforum I'm already playing goblin now.

I love the Mario and Luigi games, too :)

@MadScientist Have you done any of the season journey stuff? Or are you playing non-seasonal?

7:21 PM

@twobugs Non-season, I don't really feel like starting from scratch

@GodEmperorDune What are you talking about? I don't have a sister, let alone a twin sister.

@Arperum You can abdicate at any time

Okay, well your best bets to gear up are probably to get yourself a Kanai's cube (talk to Kulle in town then go to the act 3 map and visit the new area), run some bounties for act materials, and farm rifts for Death's Breath

but gobs aren't bad

@nukeforum Yea, but it feels like a waste if I do without even getting any gems out of it...

7:22 PM

Plays like the Mario and Luigi stuff. Precise input timing button combat. Blah. But it's cute.

@Arperum I feel you. gobs will still be good, they help you get fc faster

helps progress income faster

Kanai's cube is great and makes gearing up a lot faster. If you're looking for a legendary or set piece in a particular slot, you can just spend some crafting materials to upgrade a yellow tier item to a legendary/set piece of the same slot

You can also change set pieces into another random piece from the same set

@nukeforum Their spell now gives faction coins based on gems owned though.

For Wizard, Firebirds is a good starting set

@twobugs I got the cube, does the upgrade work with any item of the same type, or does it need to be a specific version of the item?

7:23 PM

kotaku.com/…

Any item of the same type

@MadScientist All @twobugs said was assuming you have the expansion.

I have that

So general 1 handed swords will upgrade only into other 1 handed swords

Jeez, I cannot escape FNAF no matter where I run online.

7:24 PM

@Dragonrage Mathematicians are easily confused... I guess I won't propose it :(

But if you want to use a specific class weapon (say, ceremonial knife) you have to upgrade from a yellow ceremonial knife

@MadMAxJr Scott FU this time.

@Arperum eh, true. Honestly, with this rework, I would start elves or something. they'll probably get you to some gems the fastest

So upgrading with the cube is the most efficient way to get legendary/set items now? That's good to know

@MadMAxJr You'll hear it less now, hopefully.

7:25 PM

7 mins ago, by Powerlord

Wait, I thought @MattE.Эллен was my twin sister?!

@MadScientist Yeah, they made it WAY more efficient to gear up. There's still RNG involved but you have ways to control it moreso

@MadScientist doing public games and doing rifts works pretty good too, but that's not specific stuff.

@MattE.Эллен i think its people in general. not just mathematicians

And, of course, there's always Kadala (who is evil)

@twobugs Never got anything useful out of her

7:26 PM

@Dragonrage True, I did just wonder if I was @Powerlord's sister

She's better now since you can reroll set pieces

And reforge legendaries

But she's still evil!

@GodEmperorDune you finished the game. now wait for the next one.

@GodEmperorDune I haven't played the X series, so...

user15026

@Powerlord I wondered if that might happen, because he was like "february release date!" and then all of a sudden was like "surprise! its done!"

7:39 PM

is there a game that has the title X?

@AshleyNunn He does this with every game.

However, this time around he released an RPG. One that doesn't both to explain its own controls to players.

or what any of the abilities do.

@Dragonrage i was using X as a standin for every possible game, but probably

FNAF is something I never understood so I just ignore it

(Such as "What does the Mystery Present ability do?")
