Q: What are the answers to the Boss's ciphers?

In The Gold Factory, I'm having trouble deciphering the Boss's encrypted messages. How do I work them out?

Since when are iron bars more valuable than gold?

FEichinger

@fbueckert Since gold exists in abundance and isn't used for anything other than currency.

@boo What were your deciphered messages for the first and second try?

Q: Minimum PSU numbers for GPUs don't make sense?

I have a 380 watt PSU, and most video cards say they need a 450 watt PSU at minimum. Is this a case of manufacturers being too safe? http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-660/specifications The video card from the link only draws 140 watts. I have a 65 watt CPU, 2 SSDs, and ...

Q: How do skills work?

I'm faced with a choice between two skills. How do they work? When can I use them? How long do they last? How much damage do they do? I want to know before making my choice in case one is clearly superior to the other. Are there any more skills?

Q: Good Side Scrolling beat 'em up game for Ubuntu?

Something like Paintown. Similar to old age Capcom beat 'em ups like Cads and Dino, Punisher and Final fight?

Q: Friends blocks not showing up

So me and my friend are playing minecraft PE on two different devices both on the newest version of minecraft and whenver he places a block its always the same. For example if he tries to place a diamond block it shows up as cobblestone. Please help!

Braiam

@GamingTopicsFromOutside I want to close you very bad...

Yuki

@fbueckert That's not really a gaming-specific question, is it?

I mean, at its heart, it's about why hardware ratings are the way they are and not necessarily gaming-related.

FEichinger

@Braiam It's mis-tagged, at least.

I also love how one answer to it is a link to an application called abuse.

Braiam

nah, that's not the reason... is about *-recommendation

@Yuki discrete GPUs are pretty much gaming-specific these days (if we exclude something like Teslas for computation)

Yuki

@MadScientist I guess, but I don't see video cards as gaming-specific hardware.

fbueckert

@MadScientist We had a meta about this awhile ago. Graphics cards are not considered gaming specific hardware.

Q: Can I play the same Starbound character on multiple computers?

Is there currently a way to play the same character in the same universe on multiple computers? I would like to be able to take my game with me to campus or the living room, but do most of my play on my desktop. Clarification: Not concurrently. I would play on my desktop, save and exit, then ...

Mad Scientist

If you buy a PC today, odds are it'll have an integrated graphics. The only reason to use a discrete graphics cards are gaming and calculations, that's gaming-specific enough for me

@MadScientist And photo editing.

Along with a myriad of other graphics intensive processes that they can speed up.

Mad Scientist

If we make the criteria "can you possibly use it for anything else but gaming", then we should also throw out all questions about console hardware, or pretty much hardware in general.

fbueckert

@MadScientist No, the criteria is, "It is generally used only for gaming?"

We hashed this out last year.

Q: Why is Boba Fett (Holiday Special) blue instead of green in TDS?

In the holiday update there is an unlock-able Boba Fett (Holiday Special) which is given as a reward for decorating 20 levels. Why is he blue instead of his usual green coloring?

tiny-death-star

fbueckert

And that question also fails the litmus test of removing game specific items from the question, and it's still there.

Either way, the question is too specific to his hardware to be useful to anyone else.
