The Bridge

I would like to add a shop plugin that lets players (idealy) purchase a shop or npc that acts as a shop that they can stock with items that they've produce (i.e. the items don't come from out of thin air) and any money that they make from this shop/npc goes to their balance. I do not want this to...

@OrigamiRobot YOU'RE NOT INCOMPETENT ENOUGH

badp

@YiJiang'sEvilClone why are you screaming?!

kalina

@badp SEEMS LIKE THE IN THING TO DO ATM

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@badp Because the robot has a hearing deficiency

badp

@fbueckert blech

kalina

EVERYBODY IS DOING IT

Mad Scientist

3:14 PM

@kalina Mods don't have the power to fix elections

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

At least that's what I assumed when it shouted at me

kalina

@MadScientist I SUSPECT YOU MISSED THE PART WHERE I WAS JOKING

badp

@YiJiang'sEvilClone @OrigamiRobot has only two pinkies and they are mangled :(

fbueckert

@badp Yeah, ditto. We're divided on mod recs in general, so let's use this as a test case to see if it's viable.

kalina

@fbueckert VTC

fbueckert

3:15 PM

@kalina That's also a valid response.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@badp Oh dear Giants that's terrible :(

OrigamiRobot

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I'M JUST USING AUTOCAD :(

kalina

@fbueckert LET'S SEE IF WE CAN MAKE IT TO THE END OF THIS DAY WITHOUT DISAGREEING, OK?

SaintWacko

@kalina NO

fbueckert

@kalina For what reason would I agree to that?

SaintWacko

3:16 PM

I disagree

badp

@kalina what timezone?

kalina

@fbueckert THE REASON

@badp IRRELEVANT, I WILL SLEEP BEFORE THE END OF THE DAY IN MY TIMEZONE

badp

I suggest picking one where the "day" ends in 43 minutes from now

There might even be one where the "day" ends in 13

kalina

@badp I'M NOT GNOMESLICE, I DON'T NEED AN EASY CHALLENGE

fbueckert

@kalina Alright, whatever.

djsmiley2k

3:17 PM

3 or

or 1, etc

fbueckert

I present my most horrifying personality aspect: apathy.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@badp That's my Timezone!

kalina

@fbueckert COOL, I SHALL NOW SUBVERT SAID AGREEMENT BY SIMPLY AGREEING WITH WHATEVER OPINION YOU HOLD ON MOD-RECS

badp

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Ugh, okay, that's no good

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Of course my timezone is best timezone

agent86

3:19 PM

kalina

who the hell would use conditioner first?!

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@badp >:(

kalina

End world hunger: eat the poor

fbueckert

@agent86 #1 chosen. I'll be back on Tuesday.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I'd like to be a Pastafarian for a day

kalina

3:20 PM

Switch religions for the day... seems easy enough to go from not believing to believing

Earn @fbueckert's trust and then vanquish him... hmmmm

seems difficult

especially since he's now a master of Kung-Fu

SaintWacko

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I have the Pastafarian holy book at home

agent86

hmm, now I have to cozy up to @wipqozn without him knowing about this.

kalina

@YiJiang'sEvilClone stop procrastinating

fbueckert

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Worst. Disguise. Ever.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

3:26 PM

@kalina You're not... oh never mind

kalina

I need steal your twilight picture and make a desktop wallpaper out of it

Procrastination is like the #1 thing I do

OH NO, THE FIRST SNOWFLAKE HAS JUST HIT THE GROUND

QUICKLY, EVERYBODY IN ENGLAND START PANICKING

djsmiley2k

it's been snowing all day kalina.

(in brum at least).

fredley

@kalina HOLY CRAP A SNOWFLAKE, TAKE PICTURES AND SEND TO BBC IMMEDIATELY

kalina

@djsmiley2k I was being ironic

the office I normally work in just got sent home because half an inch of snow fell

not a joke...

I am currently in London

it takes a lot of snow to get through the smog

fredley

kalina

3:32 PM

@fredley -.-

good job this isn't math, you'd get 500000000 flags for that

fredley

@kalina We have low standards on The Bridge

kalina

@fredley we have 'standards' on the bridge?

3

fredley

@kalina Yes, of course. Terrible ones.

fbueckert

@kalina Yes. We banned Gnome.

kalina

@fredley today I learned that the bridge does have some standards

fredley

3:33 PM

@kalina All we know about our standards is that the bar is too high for Gnome

kalina

@fbueckert did we actually ban Gnome? I thought that was fallout from another channel that ended up with him banned

Unionhawk

@kalina Not very many. But some.

fredley

@kalina It was not one event.

kalina

I bet one of these new users that has recently appeared is actually GnomeSlice

fredley

@kalina We would know by now.

kalina

3:35 PM

I suppose he would have spoken at least once

djsmiley2k

kalina we got sent home a few weeks ago

that was nice, but rare :(

fbueckert

@djsmiley2k We get six inches of snow, shrug, and keep going.

Fluttershy

Woo! Another gold badge! =3

kalina

@Fluttershy gz

fredley

@Fluttershy Which?

Fluttershy

3:36 PM

@fredley Famous question.

djsmiley2k

@fbueckert yeah, funniest bit is how I'm one of the futhrest away, two trains and a long walk to get here, yet I made it in that day when people 10 minutes down the road didn't ?!

fredley

@kalina or posted a link

Fluttershy

@kalina Thanks.

fredley

@Fluttershy Eh, doesn't count. Everyone gets famous question in the end, you just have to hang around long enough.

kalina

@fredley famous question doesn't require you to hang around at all

fredley

3:36 PM

By the heat death of the universe, we'll all have Famous Question on all our questions.

kalina

the only requirement in fact is that you ask a question

Unionhawk

@Fluttershy I have famous question - and it's a far outdated question now...

But, either way, it looks cool :3

fbueckert

I have a dupe that's earned Famous Question.

fredley

I found a bug! A really tiny annoying one!

Unionhawk

@fbueckert My famous question regarding the Buildcraft of last year to this day gets upvotes occasionally...

fbueckert

3:40 PM

@Unionhawk I love driveby upvotes like that.

More rep for old work.

Unionhawk

Which is sad, because the question doesn't even apply anymore, unless you're one of those people still using <s>Tekkit</s> The-modpack-that-will-probably-never-update-again 1.2.5

Q: Date display bug

I found a bug. Can you see it? If you're having trouble, I'll highlight it for you: May 26th of what year??? This is important!

bug date-formatting

@Unionhawk Hi

Unionhawk

@fredley Just, imagine it actually worked, and I know how to format.

fredley

@Unionhawk For future reference: ---I hope this works---

LessPop_MoreFizz

I haz 13 Famous Questions. But I'm only proud of like 3 of them.

Mad Scientist

3:46 PM

Famous Qustion badges are rather easy to earn here, I've more than 40 now.

Tim Stone

@fredley Hmm...it's bydesign for that conversion function, but I suppose that conversion function shouldn't be used there (you should probably be a bit more explicit about where that happens, by the way).

LessPop_MoreFizz

Yeah. By contrast, tag badges are very hard to get. Nobody has a gold badge in any tag.

fredley

@TimStone I'll update the meta

kalina

pretty much all of my famous questions are for WoW

LessPop_MoreFizz

I should try to write 16 more fallout-new-vegas answers somehow to get a silver badge for that game. I have all the upvotes.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

3:48 PM

@kalina browse.deviantart.com/art/… should do. Not exactly the same, but you can look in chat history if you need that one

fredley

@TimStone I thought it might be to do with keeping the length of that string under a certain number of chars, but it happens on other questions where that's clearly not the case.

StrixVaria

@fredley There's a cutoff in the middle of May.

Where it either adds or doesn't add the year.

It's based on how old the date is.

How they chose some 9 months and change I don't know, though.

kalina

@YiJiang'sEvilClone ta

if you ever want easy gold badges, just post a bunch of reasonable obvious WoW questions with well worded titles on the day of a WoW expansion release

and before you know it, 150k views

oh, 171k

Tim Stone

@StrixVaria Should be 330 days, unless it was changed

else if (days <= 330)
{
    return dt.ToString("MMM %d 'at' %H:mmm").ToLowerInvariant();
}

StrixVaria

@TimStone That is completely arbitrary.

So it functions as designed but the design is just stupid.

Tim Stone

3:56 PM

11 months, where a month is 30 days

Silly Opera.
