@AshleyNunn Every day should be National Nutty Fudge day.

user15026

@fbueckert Oops. :( Sorry. :P

Raven Dreamer

@badp yeah, I just got the email

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Suuure you are. :P

user15026

16:06

@fbueckert I am! Very! is not a chocolate enabler no sir no how

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn I have one of those metabolisms that just burns everything. So I go through an amazing amount of sugar. And I can't gain weight, no matter how hard I try.

So be a chocolate enabler. I love people like that.

user15026

@fbueckert You do realize I am now obligated to hate you.

user15026

Because I look at food and it appears on my hips

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Hey, you're the one who brought up chocolate.

badp

At any rate as soon as 3DS emulators and roms hit the internet I'm so frame advancing those damn things and bringing them to Youtube

user15026

16:09

@fbueckert hates herself instead and drowns her sorrows in chocolate I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY NOW

user15026

@badp frame advancing?

badp

All 6 games except Runner, where the beats actually are random so there's no actual music

Raven Dreamer

@badp Beats are random in beat too

badp

@AshleyNunn Basically slowing the game aribitrarily, which "removes" the skill requirements to perfect games. Well, at least Bit Trip ones.

Raven Dreamer

16:10

Just play the first 15 seconds a few times, and you can see that they change

badp

@RavenDreamer Do they? I'll actually give it a shot but I really doubt it.

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Aww. Here, have a nice, healthy granola bar.

user15026

Raven Dreamer

Raven Dreamer

@StrixVaria So. You haven't really met half the characters.

fbueckert

@FAE Harry is comedy gold. He threatens to send God a bill for his services.

FAE

16:28

@StrixVaria Read more. The first book was written on a lark. The writing improves.

StrixVaria

@FAE I plan to read more. I assumed the writing would improve. I read the background of the first book and I'm taking that into consideration.

spugsley

@OrigamiRobot wait, what? O-o

Raven Dreamer

@fbueckert That was in a short story, IIRC

FAE

@spugsley I can relate to this. I use an excel sheet to keep track of my relationship history.

fbueckert

@RavenDreamer I believe so. It makes an appropriate example, though.

FAE

16:29

@StrixVaria Ah, woo, glad to hear. I was under the impression from your statement that you weren't planning on reading more.

StrixVaria

@FAE The characters were really the only problem I had with the first book. I gave it 4 out of 5 on Goodreads.

spugsley

@StrixVaria Read Codex Alera. It's incredible from start to finish.

Raven Dreamer

@FAE Well... not everyone is blessed with your good lucks, ya show off!

StrixVaria

@spugsley I'll get to it eventually. I have D3 and the whole Wheel of Time and other crap to finish before that.

OrigamiRobot

@spugsley It's pretty obvious.

FAE

16:30

@StrixVaria Gotcha

StrixVaria

Right now I have to go shopping.

spugsley

wow. This parent was just a huge dick to me. I hate people.

fbueckert

@spugsley This. THIS THIS THIS.

spugsley

@fbueckert I much prefer it to Dresdan

Raven Dreamer

@spugsley read "parent" as "present". Was very confused.

FAE

16:31

@RavenDreamer Poly is complicated, man!

@spugsley I've heard good stuff about Codex Alera, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I am a sucker for urban fantasy, which is why I enjoy the Dresden Files so much.

fbueckert

@spugsley I still like Dresden better, but Alera's pretty damn good, too.

spugsley

@RavenDreamer He's screaming at me because I can't schedule a sick visit fucking four days in advance. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR KID WILL BE SICK IN FOUR DAYS!??!

OrigamiRobot

@RavenDreamer You would read that.

Raven Dreamer

@spugsley Maybe he's related to John Salk?

I learned that word from Tales of Symphonia, actually

spugsley

@spugsley Quick, my babie's coughing on something! Moooother Punch!

spugsley

16:39

@fbueckert thankfully, my punching method also works on whining, yelling, and dirty diapers. It's revolutionary. It will change the way you parent

fbueckert

@spugsley That's a pretty cool technique. It's on Chuck Norris' level.

@IanPugsley It'd be better if you left, probably, because then it wouldn't be 5 v. 4, one of the bots would leave. Though shouldn't be a huge prob, depending on which bots.

but my computer just blue screened

user15026

and now it wants to run "Startup Repair"

user15026

does that mean it is going to wipe clean?

Wipqozn

@Sterno Did you buy Arma 2, or are you just running the expansion?

TZHX

@AshleyNunn no, it just checks operating system files are present

it should leave your other files alone.

agent86

@AshleyNunn No, startup repair shouldn't delete anything.

user15026

@TZHX Okay. So I should just let it run?

TZHX

well, it shouldn't cause any problems

so yes

but blue screens nowadays are more often hardware problems, so if it'll fix the issue is doubtful.

user15026

@TZHX Oh lovely :( This is so not awesome

user15026

So basically, I am looking at getting a new desktop?

TZHX

20:23

well, see what happens

@AshleyNunn My current PC has been bluescreening since soon after I built it.

It still runs. I just has a crash-happy graphics card

TZHX

the most common cause of bluescreening I've seen is faulty RAM

Sterno

@Wipqozn I had Arma 2. I had to buy the expansion

user15026

@RavenDreamer Mine is apparently not running - it has BS'd 4 times in a row, and startup repair has been running for 10 minutes now....nothing is really happening

Sterno

@wipqozn I'm still a little unclear on your answer. It seemed like you're saying the files should go in arma 2 operation arrowhead\@DayZ\Addons

user15026

20:25

@TZHX What causes that? This machine has been running fine for quite a while - it has only really started doing this since I moved.

TZHX

I'd suggest getting a live linux cd, which should let you check whether the basic hardware is going.

If it's since you moved, I'd suggest it got bumped while moving

Sterno

If all that matters is the final destination, and the final destination is actually arma 2/Addons, I'd make that clearer and remove the bit about @Dayz/Addons. Who cares where I dump the .rars?

user15026

@TZHX I was afraid of that. :(

TZHX

sorry.

@RavenDreamer I've got an old GPU I can sell you for a hefty sum.

user15026

20:29

@TZHX Not your fault. I am just irritated because I do not want to have to go buy a new machine and set it up and stuff

user15026

am glad I keep most of my important documents and the like in various online places

user15026

Hm. Tentative hope here. This might be okay.

Q: MW3 - Do You Show Up On The Radar When Shooting While

..You have assasin but no silencer on your gun? For example, if you are using the ACR with no silencer, but you do have assasin on. Does assasin then allow you to not show up on the radar apart from when you are shooting. Thanks!

user15026

@Lazers why is there only half a title?

Wipqozn

@Sterno Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying.

@Sterno Oh, okay. I see what you mean. You needed to put them in Arma 2.

I had to put them in the expansion folder.

Sterno

20:51

Yeah, not sure why it's different.

Man, I have no idea what I'm doing in this game

Found a rifle and can't figure out how to actually aim with it

Wipqozn

@Sterno what do you mean?

You just need to press the right mouse button

Sterno

that sort of zooms in the view but it doesn't aim down the rifle or anything

Wipqozn

...wait, you mean as in move it around?

you just move the mouse

Also, you managed to get in? Lucky duck. I still can't get on. No response from server.

@OrigamiRobot I'm selling these video cards for a hefty sum.
