Okay, fixed font ruins quotes, good to know
 
crickets
Would have sufficed also
 
@RavenDreamer HELLO
 
*sigh* Frozen Synapse is... disappointing. I suppose I should be playing it with a friend instead of doing the single player campaign.
It's disappointing because the single player missions feel like puzzles rather than actual turn based tactics
 
12:22 AM
Not sure why anyone would want to stick the Hub logo on a piece of fanart though
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Is the white one a boy pony unicorn?
 
@RavenDreamer That's Shining Armor, Twilight Sparkle's big brother.
 
So a literal, "My bro can take your bro"
 
@RavenDreamer Pretty much.

Q: No access to region?

kalinaAs you can see from the below screenshot, my transport adviser is telling me that I currently have no access to the region; The screenshot also shows a road linking my city to the region, I have the traffic data layer up which shows high levels of traffic on it, although the overlay is showing...

@Fluttershy If I wanted to be funny, I'd say it's Francis Sparkle. :D

Good evening Bridge!
 
Hmmm, Maxis is calling SimCity a MMO
Does that mean it'll be updated like a MMO?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone They've already updated it twice.
 
Sure, but many games have launch day patches
I mean in the longer run. MMOs don't have stuff like DLCs, since it would split the player base (though WoW has its expansion packs, hmmm)
 
12:38 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I want to murder that logo so much
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yes, the DRM will be updated routinely
...oh you meant the game. laughs derisively
 
The MMO model means giving players a drip feed of new contents to keep them engaged
It's just that after reading through her bullet points I can't help thinking "but I don't want any of that!"
 
Hi Raven
 
> So, could we have built a subset offline mode? Yes. But we rejected that idea because it didn't fit with our vision. We did not focus on the 'single city in isolation' that we have delivered in past SimCities. We recognize that there are fans – people who love the original SimCity – who want that.
Lucy Bradshaw, Maxis
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Read an article the other day that says current generation MMOs are just no longer viable and that they need to evolve to where players generate the content as much as the developers as it is not cost effective to develop an MMO any more.
 
Steam Greenlight confuses me. I just watched the trailer for the new game by the developers of Frozen Synapse, Frozen Endzone. At the end they're asking for votes on Greenlight
But the original Frozen Synapse was published on Steam without Greenlight, so why would they have to go through the process now, with the new game?
In other words, why would indie developers want to go through the Greenlight process when their games can already be published directly like any other developer's games?
 
FAE
12:56 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Might want to make that a link, otherwise they live on in transcript.
 
The post's gone already, so might as well delete that
 
Yeah, @FAE's vote killed it.
 
Huh... I didn't get my rep back from that deletion. o_O
Oh. There it is. Dang...
 
user15026
Wow, the Harmoknight demo is harder than I expected. Fun, but hard.
 
Why does Bandcamp take so long to "prepare" the songs?
 
1:07 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Imagine you are at band camp and suddenly you get told you have to go home with that guy over there because he gave the camp owner $5
That would take some preparing man.
 
Ahahaha, oy :P
 
@Powerlord Screw our fans! Facebook! Social! ONLINE EXPERIENCE. That's all I hear
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yeah, I'm extremely skeptical about Greenlight, it seems like a a gate to keep out the indies while paraded like a "feature"; Rockin Android has been degraded to begging on Greenlight while their past games went straight to Steam as well

I didn't know that about the mp3 format

Q: Is there a way to see what bonus missions I missed?

KexloxI'm certain I missed one bonus mission early on, and as such Kerrigan is down one level from where she could be. Is there an easy way to see what level I missed it on so I can replay it from the archives?

Q: What areas do I farm for the pony level items and whats the best way to go about it? Diablo 3 Inferno

Steven BrownI haven't played since July of last year so I'm trying to get a refresh on everything and wouldn't mind making new friends along the way!

 
@Lazers Dupe.
 
10000000 is pretty neat.

Q: Don't starve getting VERY Choppy framerate. Help please?

ScythianSteppesAll right, let me tell you what I know so far. 1. Enabling Vsync and Triple Buffering may help, but my AMD VISION menu doesn't allow me to do that. 2. This game played PERFECTLY on this laptop before, but suddenly started becoming choppy. 3. My video card isn't bad, other games work fine (With th...

 
@MBraedley I'm sick!
 
@Fluttershy I don't see how that answers the question, seeing as how you didn't respond sooner, but feel better soon.
 
2:49 AM
@MBraedley I was AFK making tea. But thank you!
 
@Fluttershy That makes sense
My brother informs me that my Wes Welker Pats hoodie is now all but meaningless. :( Any NFL fans here?
 
@MBraedley I used to be. Then all of my NFL-watching friends moved out of state, so watching was less fun for me. <_<
 
3:03 AM
Food for thought: it takes a burn of ~4.75 minutes to de-orbit a Soyuz capsule from the ISS. It took a burn of ~3.5 minutes to put an Apollo 3rd stage into TLI free return. Assuming a soft abort prior to LEM docking (or shortly after), Apollo would have a shorter burn to return 3 astronauts to Earth than Soyuz, and would also travel beyond the orbit of the moon.

Q: unemployment vs. unfilled jobs

ParalyticAs many may have noticed getting the perfect balance of jobs and people to fill those jobs is probably impossible. So I am asking what will cause the least amount of negative affects to my city; unemployment or unfilled jobs.

Q: Why does tekkit not update to the newest version of minecraft?

Bailey RowlandI was trying to play on 11.CBGA.ME (Super Craft Brothers (server 11)) and I got a client too old error, so I checked the version and it was 1.5.7, The newest one 1.6.0 (Redstone update), so why isn't Tekkit updating to the newest client?

@Powerlord So true.
 
@Powerlord No comment, mainly because I'm neither a Pokemon fan nor a MLP fan
 
3:53 AM
@Powerlord The difference, I think, is that Pokemon doesn't have a target gender.
 
@RavenDreamer No, the difference is that the public face of pokemon players isn't the craziest, most terrifying and out of the ordinary segment of the fan population.

Q: Does profit from the tourist attraction culture buildings go to the city coffers?

LouisThe tourist attraction buildings have an hourly expense like other special buildings, so I know their baseline cost. But they also have a profit associated with them, so I'm wondering if this generates (or takes) money from the city coffers. In this example, the Leaning Tower of Pisa costs §7,32...

good morning

Good afternoon
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone your a JS guy, what is your thoughts on backbonejs.org ?
 
It's a great way of organizing your client side code
It enforces separation of concerns and ensures the code you write is more functional, which makes it better than the messy procedural code you get if you try to write client side code for a webapp without a framework like that
 
we had our quarterly meeting in the company I work for and they presented a project that is going live Monday that used it and I had never heard much about it before
 
How much experience do you have working with client side JS?
 
not much, I have done a couple of things and made a chrome extension, only lib i have really used is jQuery
 
The place that I work specializes in business critical IT solutions, usualy not that much bling or front end functionality, mostly boring business flows
 
Backbone is pretty old by JavaScript library standards
And pretty stable

OH, someone commented that on one of my tekkit questions
can i do it with a tekkit client or vanilla client?
that is my question @fredley
 
11:33 AM
@BaileyRowland Feed the beast is like Tekkit, but it's newer and is in active development, so has all the latest versions of the mods
 
New client or use old one?
 
Tekkit is effectively dead now, even the Yogscast have migrated from Tekkit to FTB
 
:)
REALLY?
:O
 
@BaileyRowland Well, all the mods in it are very old
 
I just started using it.
 
11:35 AM
@BaileyRowland Switch to FTB
 
Well....
I have to tell my friends.
We all play tekkit lite.
What about Yogbox?
 
@BaileyRowland Don't know about this, but the Yogscast have produced an FTB modpack

Hey! These are outdated.
 
@BaileyRowland ?
 
Minecraft is now at 1.5 not 1.4.7
 
@BaileyRowland Yes, the process of updating 20 or so mods to version 1.5 takes more than a few days :-)
 
11:48 AM

@BaileyRowland But 1.5 is coming

@BaileyRowland Offline at the moment
Ok, wait a sec

@BaileyRowland Hey, I'm helping you out here
 
That was for offline.
 
11:58 AM
Then on the FTB launcher click 'Edit Mod Pack'
 
i have it already
I have 1.15.4 not 1.15.3
 
Disable TF then click Add Mod on the Right Hand Side
