I need to clone all of these for some SourceMod stuffage
and it's taking upwards of 5 minutes each
 
@5pike I'm not clear what the message is, unless it's "I'm really mad. I'm taking my toys leaving my toys here but removing my name from them and going home." Which is a pretty ineffective message when the other party just says, "Yeah, okay, thanks for the toys. Bye!"
 
@Sterno I think the message is, "You guys don't deserve my dazzling intellect anymore, so I will no longer be providing it."
 
@Sterno Yeah, that seems like it. Reminds me of what I did in kindergarten.
And with that, I'm off. Bye

Q: Does destroying a collected MELD canister decrease the amount of MELD received?

kotekzotOne of my snipers managed to destroy a MELD container another operative had already opened. The scientist lady chided me for destroying MELD in that lovely way of hers, yet the UI still counts that canister as collected rather than lost. Can I freely destroy MELD canister after collecting them, o...

 
4:23 PM
...and back.
 
@Powerlord NOOOOOOOOOOO.. oh hey, welcome back
 
You guys might find this interesting.
> The game is hailed as a mixture between Dungeon Keeper, Dwarf Fortress and Terraria.
 
@Sterno I did it to clarify my position that I'm never going to participate in Arqade's Q&A ever again. And with one exception (with an account that is itself now deleted) I never have.
 
boo
 
Did I mention that this site is kind of amazing?
 
4:26 PM
There are other related reasons to do it as well... I don't get notices that my answers (that are now falling into disrepair) have new comments and the like.
 
@boo Quality infographic.
 
@Wipqozn I was interested until the second and third games were mentioned
 
boo
@RedRiderX Or 'graph', as we used to say
 
@boo No, it's an infographic.
 
boo
@RedRiderX It's not not a graph
 
4:28 PM
It looks interesting. Most games which hail themselves as "like Dwarf Fortress" usually turns me off since that usually traits to "Dumbed down dwarf fortress", but it looks like something unique.
 
boo
God damn it why can't I English today

@boo It has info, and no point, so it's an infographic.
 
@Wipqozn Error: Not Banished
 
(Said answers that are falling into disrepair are the ones on TF2, WoW, and SWTOR for example, since all 3 have changed since I deleted my account)
 
@Powerlord Yeah, that makes sense in the case of leaving one site but not the entire network

Q: What does Coal Touch do?

Zero StackI unlocked a new uncommon card called Coal Touch. I figured it would turn everything I mine in to coal, but I didn't end up seeing that. What does the card Coal Touch do?

 
boo
@RedRiderX It represents data points with a spatial map. It's a graph.
And the point is optimal Wally-finding time.
 
@Wipqozn When I make a game, I'm going to hail it as a mixture of Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice
 
@boo I see.
 
@Sterno Hey, that rhymes!
 
boo
@FEichinger He's a poet, and he seems to understand that.
 
4:32 PM
When I make a game, I'm going to put hardcore pornography in it, even if it's totally out of place. Just to get more sales.
 
@RedRiderX The Donkey Kong game alone is worth checking it out.

Q: Once I've turned on the crane, what do I do?

Q: What is the difference between Penny and Hunter?

Zero StackI just unlocked a second miner called Penny. Is there any significant difference between Hunter and Penny other than cosmetics? [See screenshots below... "Hunter: Born for this" & "Penny: A bit of a finesse"] VS.

 
4:37 PM
@boo I don't know if I'd link to it directly, it might not be super legal.
 
boo
@RedRiderX Eh.
 
OMG Piracy! Flagged, deleted, account suspended, suspicious mail package sent.

Morning, Bridge
 
@Sterno What do you suspicious mail package sent.
Surely you mean nondescript package, right?
 
boo
@Powerlord A suspicious package containing kittens
 
4:40 PM
Nah. I like to instill fear.
 
@boo And it's more the Game & Watch Donkey Kong.

Q: I can't mine gold, diamonds, redstone, nothing

KatI'm using a wooden pickaxe, and that might be the problem, I can mine coal and flint, but nothing else. Can someone help please?

 
@boo Well it's more that I don't want it to be taken down :P
It's just so well done.
 
I'm not liking the recent trend of duplicates getting one or two downvotes. We're supposed to like duplicates, as they increase the search target area.

Q: Adding card to purchase Candy Crush Saga moves

Jan MatlockWhen I try to add $0.99 it says my card was declined (expired). How/where do I add new card #?

 
4:51 PM
@JasonBerkan Yeah, that is a bummer.
 
@JasonBerkan This one in particular I don't think was downvoted because of being a duplicate, but because of a distinct lack of research on the part of the asker
 
@SaintWacko or even the fact that the asker answered the question in the question
 
@JasonBerkan I mostly agree. I personally don't downvote duplicates, but in cases where dumping the dup question into search turns up the original question, or it appears in the "Questions like yours" tab when making up a question I have no problem with it. In those cases I think the duplicate meets the "Lack of research" downvote reason.
Don't forget that the reason we like duplicate is based on the assumption that the person asking the dup was unable to find the original question, not that they didn't bother looking for it at all.
 
Jin
 
@SaintWacko That's probably true here. However this is a trend I've been keeping an eye on for a couple of weeks now. Not all dups get downvotes, but a high percentage do.
 
4:54 PM
@Lazers Downvoted for spending money on Candy Crush
(joking)
 
@Lazers Your expired card is trying to save you from spending more money on Candy Crush :P

Q: No hostile mobs spawning in minecraft

KazeuchiI'm absolutely sure I am not in peaceful mode I'll even provide my server properties at the end of this. I've tried switching between hard mode to peaceful and back again, nothing works. I've waited a few night, with no torches and far away from spawn points, no mobs spawn, not even in the caves....

 
Hey, I was actually able to win DK.

Q: Necessary to level up to level 100 for battling?

MariskaThis might be another noob question, but is it necessary to level up your pokemon to level 100 to battle (at Battle Maison or Wi-Fi battling). Assuming that your pokemon are fully EV-trained and their levels will be "standardized" to level 50 when battling, would there actually be any difference ...

 
@JasonBerkan I downvote dups when the primary word is easily found in a site search, or when the question goes, "I looked at this question, but it dosn't help me."
I've found dupes that are word for word the same title.
Those get downvoted instantly.
 
5:14 PM
Doesn't the system prevent word for word same titles?
Unless you mean like one had a question mark and one didn't
 
@Sterno It might now, but at the time, it didn't.
 
Not only does it prevent it, but it actually gives you a link to the question with the same title.
Fancy!
I just got my Ogre Kickstarter in the mail and the box was insanely huge.
 
@Sterno Which one is you?
 
None of the above.
The stuff to punch out and assemble was in 4 separate packets. Last night I did one packet in about 70 minutes
25% ready to play!
 
@Sterno That seems pretty rad.
Like really rad
 
5:23 PM
Oddly, mine was missing the "Read me first" thing I see in that picture, which I'm betting contains assembly instructions.
 
So is it a wargame?
 
Yeah.
 
Ah.
 
@Sterno Woah cool.
I didn't know Steve Jackson did wargames.
But I guess they do a lot of stuff.
 
5:25 PM
I'm hoping they remake Car Wars
 
@Wipqozn Even so, unless the question is absolutely identical, it will include other search terms that are useful for Google. And I know it's an unpopular opinion, but new users arriving from Google at a downvoted duplicate are going to have a negative view of the site from the beginning.
 
Agree. That should not be at -4. But pity upvotes are bad (mmkay?)
 
Pity upvotes are no worse than stupid downvotes.
(I have not looked at this particular question, and am just making a general statement)
 
true enough, I guess
 
@Sterno Upvotes are worse, because they are given more weight.
 
5:33 PM
Apparently The 7th Guest 3 is currently on KickStarter.
 
@Sterno That sounds like a good Read Me.
 
Pity stars are the worst.
 
@OrigamiRobot No, bad star baits are the worst.

Q: Out of sector combat in X3: how can I tell my ships to evade?

@OrigamiRobot But you don't even get rep for edits after 2k do you?
 
@OrigamiRobot is the worst.

@ORI DONT DO DIS
 
@fbueckert :(
 
@OrigamiRobot Yeah. I think I solved the need for her to be on my lap all the time, though.
 
Wat?
 
5:49 PM
Like you don't want her to be on your lap all the time?
 
@OrigamiRobot Most of the time, it's fine. I get stiff, though, and have to move around.

Q: How to mark notes as unread?

Aquarius PowerI think most people have faced this already, we have notes that we do NOT want to attend to their subject atm, but they are AUTOMATICALLY marked as read and we CANNOT undo that, what is utterly annoying... We cannot also drop unwanted notes, is it safe to drop them? wont break quests? I belie...

 
@fbueckert Welcome to cats. When they are sleeping on you, you're not allowed to move.
 
@FEichinger WAT?
This is the same picture.
 
5:51 PM
@OrigamiRobot She just constantly wants to be on my lap. I have things that need doing, though, so she can't be there all the time.

@fbueckert Cats do not understand your needs that don't involve petting/feeding them.
 
@OrigamiRobot She will, eventually.

Q: Plate Bender speed issue

EnderIt would seem that Gregtech's Plate Bending Machine can only take up to 3 overclocker upgrades before it ceases to function. However, the largest hump in the speed of my AE crafting system is this bending machine, and frankly, 3 overclockers is not enough. If I connected multiple Plate Bending Ma...

 
@fbueckert Tell her to go hang out with @TrentHawkins. He doesn't have things to do, right?
 
6:31 PM
@fbueckert What did you do?
 
@fbueckert They're worse if you look only at rep numbers. But one could argue the psychological effect of a downvote has twice the power or more of an upvote, and so has heavier weight in that regard.
 
@Sterno One could also argue SHUT UP I AM RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG
 
@OrigamiRobot Hello Right... I am Left... and soon, I'll be the ONLY one left.
 
@SaintWacko I moved her basket to be beside my computer chair.
That seemed to help.
 
@fbueckert Bawwwww
 
6:44 PM
@OrigamiRobot She's a lot calmer when she's near me.
And trying to clip her nails is...tough.
 
I've never clipped a cat's nails...
Or seen it done
 
Yeah, I'm not sure that's a thing
 
Yeah, it is.
It's either that, or she starts drawing blood.
 
And?
 
And I have enough scars already.
 
6:48 PM
Bah
Having scratched up hands is part of owning a cat.
 
@OrigamiRobot It's not my hands I'm worried about.

It's rake o'clock
I HATE LEAVESSSSSSSS
 
@spugsley bunch them up and jump in them!
 
@Krazer too many bugs ewwww
althought
I now have an idea for a picture that will override the bugs
hmmmmmm
 
I look forward o this masterpiece
 
@spugsley DID YOU NEVER JUMP IN LEAVES WHEN YOU WERE A KID?
 
7:19 PM
@OrigamiRobot nope, bugs
 
I... WAT
 
I hate bugs
 
THERE ARE NO MORE BUGS IN LEAVES THAN THERE ARE IN THE GRASS
DID YOU NEVER ROLL IN THE GRASS?
 
@fbueckert @OrigamiRobot softpaws.com
These things are wonderful
 
@SaintWacko NO
 
7:22 PM
We put them on my girlfriend's cat
 
I'VE SEEN THESE
THEY ARE NOT OK
 
@OrigamiRobot why do you say that?
They don't bother our cat at all
They don't mess with the cat's stability
 
THEY ARE CREEPY
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh, not if you get clear ones
 
THAT'S SOMEHOW CREEPIER
 
7:23 PM
Yeah, the colored ones are weird
@OrigamiRobot What?
 
AND THEY LOOK SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE
 
yeah. Fuck raking. Not going to do it
don't feel like it
 
@spugsley I'LL DO IT
$50
 
@OrigamiRobot nah. I'll do it eventually. Just not today
 
That's a good price, you get your leaves raked and you get @OrigamiRobot's company.
Double the value!
 
7:27 PM
SEE? @TIMSTONE KNOWS WHAT'S UP!
 
ugh. Changed my mind. If I don't rake I'm just going to sit here for the rest of the day
being whiny
 
I'LL GIVE YOU A $5 DISCOUNT IF YOU MAKE BROWNIES.
 
@OrigamiRobot my brownies cost more than 5 dollars to make so NO
 
YEA, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO EAT ALL OF THEM, I JUST WANT ONE OR TWO
 
if you don't stop caps-ing I'm going to punch you in the face
 
7:30 PM
I'M AT WORK, I HAVE TO CAPS
 
I WILL CAPS YOUR FACE
 
DO IT I DARE YOU
 
RAKE TIME BUY
 
> @spugsley buys @OrigamiRobot's rake time for $50.
 
@OrigamiRobot you can barely tell the clear ones are there
 
7:35 PM
@BenBrocka THAT'S WHY THEY'RE CREEPIER
 
@TimStone With the brownie discount it's only $45.
 
UGH, AND YOU GLUE THEM ON?
 
Why is not-sharp claws all over you creepy?
 
@BenBrocka YOU GLUE THEM ON AND YOU HAVE TO CHECK THEM WEEKLY OR THE NAILS WILL CURVE UNDER THE PAW

Q: Simcity visitors vs tourists

allenylzhouWhat is the difference between visitors and tourists? I was under the impression that visitors comprises workers and shoppers from neighbouring cities but tourists spawn out of thin air because in my tourist city, I have ~30000 tourists but barely 300 visitors. But when I started a new city in ...

 
Doing things to animals usually makes it a little bit more creepy too.
 
@Ullallulloo People get fake fingernails all the time. They're plastic covers glued on their fingernails...
 
@JasonBerkan And that's creepy.
 
@Ullallulloo Not if fingernails regularly destroyed furniture and tore apart your flesh
 
@JasonBerkan Which is kind of creepy. It would be creepier if they covered both side too though, and it's even weirder on animals.
@BenBrocka It might be practical, but it does seem a little unsettling.
 
7:49 PM
At least the paperclip is being sensible.
 
@JasonBerkan: Yes, I agree, that's why keeping all duplicates around can be good. However that doesn't mean users are exempt from being expected to do research. If someone thinks a user hasn't done enough research then they are welcome to downvote. A question having a duplicate doesn't invalidate that.
 
I clip my cats nails. It's fine.
@fbueckert Play with your cat's paws when you are not clipping her/his nails. That will make them much less jumping during actual clipping.
 
Like I said though, I personally prefer not to downvote duplicates, but I don't think a question being a duplicate should give it any special status as far as downvotes go.
 
You guys are all weird with your clipping and capping.
 
@OrigamiRobot So is your face.
Oh buuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr‌​rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr‌​rrn.

Does Italian count as "Hispanic or Latino"?
 
No.
Not... in the slightest.
 
@badp wat
 
Italy is where Latin was born!
(No seriously this is a honest question)
If Italy isn't Latin what is?
(Latin in Italian is "Latino")
 
@badp Not Latino, that's for sure.
 
> Latino is a term used chiefly in the United States to refer to people of Latin American extraction or descent
 
7:56 PM
Except for the Latin bit I suppose.
 
@OrigamiRobot capping is weird. Clipping is normal.

Q: Can i use a PC's hard drive for PS3 storage space?

Ahmad MM.I bought a 12 GB Super Slim Play Station 3, i thought that 12 GB is enough for few games but its actually not, can i use a PC's hard drive for Play Station 3 storage space?

 
@Unionhawk does that mean "Comes, even indirectly, from south of our border?"
 
Hispanic and Latino Americans are an ethnolinguistic group of citizens of the United States with origins in the countries of Latin America or the Iberian peninsula. More generally it includes all persons in the United States who self-identify as Hispanic or Latino.{{cite web|url=http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/fedreg/1997standards.html|title=Revisions to the Standard
 
@Lazers Dupe of his own question
 
7:56 PM
@ken.ganong Never met anyone who does either.
 
And that is one of the reasons I downvote dupes.
 
@badp "Latin America" referring to cenral and south america, yes.
 
So neither Latin-os or Roma-nians are Italian. Good job, world. Good job.
 
Though it derives from latin because it technically refers to North and South American countries where romance languages are the primary language spoken.
 
I certainly feel closer to the Spanish than the German or the brrrr French
but fine

I read "Area-Proportional Venn Diagrams" and thought it was good enough.

@Yuki True.
