@YiJiang'sEvilClone The 57.2° measurement seems off
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Reputation
 
@badp It's what Photoshop's ruler tool is telling me
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Is your line more adherent to the ponies' feet than that yellow line?
because that yellow line seems visually off to me
...or the color transition
the color transition might work too
In unrelated news.
 
Is that real? A game that sells "lingerie remover" as in microtransactions?
I'm not sure if I can find words to describe my incredulity
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It's a pornographic game, nothing to see here, move along

@fredley It's not actually marketed as such. It's suppose to be a "Fantasy MMORPG"
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I said move along
 
Uh. They made Need For Speed World.
...okay, published.
 
NfSW is not bad.

Pasta for dinner

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yes!

Although we are using sauce from a can
 
although that's usually my lunch.
 
we are prob using sauce from a plastic pot :/
i'm not keen on much sauce on my psta anyway
perfer lots of cheese and olive oil
 
We've been trying to make our own, but so far the results have been pretty dismal
 
Just answered a question and then realised the OP had disabled their account. Sadface.
 
your answer may help others tho!

I don't know what I am having for dinner (or lunch) but I guess it will be good because i am here with work :)

Q: Where to grind XP to hit 255 ?

djsmiley2kWhere should I be grinding XP to get to level 255 as fast and easily as possible? I know about equiping my team with the XP plus items to make life easier however I haven't seen any hints on where is the best places to grind. Some enemies such as scumbags have easy kill methods, but I don't think...

 
Is this the novel that introduced the idea of the space elevator?

Q: Cant use any DLC red text content for borderlands 2

AzaI cant seem to use any dlc redtext weaponry even after completing captain scarlets campaign. It still says at the top of a weapon pane " requires pirate booty " of which i happily looted previously.

Q: Do all my team need XP+ items when grinding or only the active members?

djsmiley2kIn star ocean 4 you can get XP+ items which boost the amount of XP from any battle, appently upto some high figure like 680%+; I understand how to get the items too boost my weapon, accessory and neck item however do I need to do this just for the team I have actively fighting, or everyone? Do I...

 
Oh
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I got 12 chapters of A Dance with Dragons to go
 
featuring Internet Explorer 3!
 
Why... are you running Win95?
 
I had set one up for nostalgia
 
I recovered it yersterday
@Blem :D Nostalgia, just a C-A-D away!
Also. The Microsoft Network. The Labyrinth screensaver. Hover!
 
Ah no, not the first to introduce the idea, but nonetheless the first one with such a broad audience

Q: How do I reach this location in Wurmwater?

squarefrogI'm trying to discover all locations in Borderlands 2, but I can't seem to this location in Wurmwater. I can see this ladder, but cant figure out how to access it. Can anyone help?

 
11:19 AM
@fbueckert GOING TO THE STORE TO BUY IT NOW SQUUEEEE
 
sigh
today is getting me down
 
Maybe you should invest in a barometer.
 
11:44 AM
there is probably a joke in there I didn't catch
just been arguing with management all day
I hate arguing with idiots
 
12:00 PM
@kalina It'd've been easier if I actually delivered it properly. Upon failing right at the start, I just silently gave up.
 
@kalina meteoropathy
 
@kalina Our supply of coffee ran out on Thursday. There have been reports of office workers who have 'gone feral'.
 
@fredley Seek shelter immediately. Slowly advance to the exit. Acquire coffee.
 
@badp There seems to be some kind of ritual going on near the exit. A totem has been erected.
I think there are several instances of Dave's syndrome.
 
@fredley Pour acquired coffee in totem.
 
12:10 PM
@badp Easter egg?
 
@fredley Listen, you want to go to home today right? presumably in fewer than four pieces?
 
@badp Nice edit
@badp Coffee is required, but not accessible.
 
@fredley Acquire coffee. Use a cardbox if necessary
Use the bag as your meatshield on your way back in
 
@badp Can you arrange an airdrop?
 
@fredley I'm afraid not, I'll contact the vatican
 
12:12 PM
Managers arguing with me about how I haven't finished some work in the last 10 minutes, even though they've spent the last 10 minutes whining to me
 
@kalina should've hung up! (don't hung up.)
 
I just turned around and politely advised them that their micromanagement methodologists are fundamentally flawed and that if they want me to get work done in a timely and efficient manner that they need to back off
 
@badp God speed
 
To which I got lectured about the proper etiquette around telling your manager to do one
 
@kalina Has the coffee run out where you are too? Is this a widespread phenomenon? Are we on the brink of global catastrophe??
 
12:14 PM
I haven't drunk any coffee today
I don't need coffee
I knew today was going to be a bad day
it all started so well...
Woke up earlier, bounced out of bed, skipped to work, walked through the door all smiley, got passed a rain cloud and haven't managed to get rid of it since
 
I'm not drinking anymore coffee after that last sour cup
But I did aquire some milk tea. Which should be fantastic
 
@kalina You should deal with this raincloud issue
 
@fredley ya think?
 
I recommend drowning it with coffee.
 
I am debating going home for lunch and smoking a huge cone
 
12:19 PM
@Wipqozn Enjoy! We'll be playing it together soon enough.
 
@kalina Is that slang for rap music?
 
ok so I send an email to the team running out cloud solution
copy my boss in
my boss messages me on lync and says excellent bla bla
is the person you emailed aware?
my best response without face desking was "well, he is present on the To: line!"
@OrigamiRobot no
 
@fbueckert Putting the disc in the WiiU now.
 
ok I'm taking a break from this terrible work day
 
@Wipqozn STOP RUBBING IT IN
 
12:22 PM
@OrigamiRobot BUY A WIIU
 
which free game should I get from EA?
 
@Wipqozn I don't have a TV to plug it into!
 
@OrigamiRobot BUY A TV
 
@Wipqozn I don't have anything to use it for!
 
@Wipqozn I have to go to work, so no playing for me until I get home.
 
12:23 PM
@kalina Rock Band 3
 
@OrigamiRobot die
any SENSIBLE person, which free game should I get from EA?
 
@fbueckert I know. That's why I said I was going to buy it. I wanted to rub it in.
@kalina Rock Band 3.
 
@Wipqozn ...
 
I'm serious, that's the best they've published recently.
 
OK, sensible human beings (no robots, no turtles), which one game out of the following list should I claim for free from EA?
 
12:24 PM
Well, Dead Space 3 is the most recent and expensive item on that list. Not sure if it's your kind of game though
 
Battlefield 3, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Bejeweled, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Dead Space 3, Plants vs Zombies
 
@kalina Well you should have started by saying there were limited options.
 
@OrigamiRobot you are not human, wait until after the voting closes before addressing me
 
@kalina which Most Wanted is it? The newer or the original?
 
@badp new one
 
12:25 PM
oh. aw.
 
SimCity 4 is also on the list, for some reason
 
@kalina You're not my real dad.
 
but tbh, I already pirated and completed it
 
I haven't played the newer, but the original is good
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I didn't include SC4 on account of me already owning SC4
same deal with Mass Effect 3
 
12:26 PM
@kalina Bejeweled (cc @OrigamiRobot)
 
then I guess Dead Space 3? especially if you aren't looking forward to an horror game at all
 
You've never played PvZ? It's a pretty enjoyable title
 
@badp Is this a cheap dig at the new Dead Space game not being that much like the previous Dead Spaces?
@YiJiang'sEvilClone iOS
 
Though it's also the cheapest item on the list
 
I would probably not choose PvZ as a freebie
 
12:27 PM
> Remember that you must claim your free game by the 31st March 2013, otherwise you'll miss out!
...
 
Oh, never mind then
 
@kalina it's Ben's opinion. When it comes to games I haven't played, others' opinions is all I've got
 
but then, I'm unlikely to ever play a Battlefield game
 
@kalina You should have gotten PvZ at Halloween for free.
 
the only games I've played on that list are Bejeweled and PvZ and you don't want those
 
12:28 PM
@OrigamiRobot US only, technically speaking
 
Oh really? That's lame
 
They were sponsored by the American Dental Association
 
I don't know anything about Medal of Honor Warfighter
 
I'd probably choose BF3 because I'd be most likely to play that one, but then I'd promptly never play it due to lack of interest.
 
...yet another FPS
 
12:29 PM
@badp It's absolutely terrible.
 
why offer so many FPSes to SimCity players
 
@badp It's not good. The reviews say it's an incredibly generic and mediocre shooter
 
@kalina That leaves you with two options: repay for free your "debt" for Most Wanted or get Dead Space 3
 
Too bad they don't have SpecOps: The Line on there...
 
@badp I repaid my 'debt' for stealing Most Wanted by telling the world how much I like Origin
besides, Most Wanted is such a crap game
 
12:32 PM
Do you play shooters at all?
 
Played Battlefield 3 for the first time since September last night...still can't "get in" to it.
Graphically, it's brilliant, but it's nothing like 2 or 2142 in regards to gameplay.
 
@tombull89 online or campaign? I haven't finished it but the campaign seems fun enough. Though I got it free with my graphics card so I don't have the highest expectations
 
I miss Battlefield 3. =(
 
@badp It has some bits of horror. Dead Space 3 isn't as bad as many claim, though I do wish it was more like 1 or 2. Also, I wish the Classic mode was availible from the start
The crafting weapons thing is neat in isolation, but slows down the game and messes up the immersion; Classic mode gets rid of all that but you have to beat the game first to unlock it
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, Campaign was farily good (nice to have a Battlefield campaign) but having to unlock the bare essentials such as flares was annoying. You have to be a good pilot to get flares to avoid being shot down to be a good pilot. Catch-22.
 
12:42 PM
 
@kalina from your work?
 
yes
I just got asked to fill in 10 forms, send them to the customer, get their signatures, and then have them returned
it wasn't quite 10, more like 8
but this was to make a single database change
 
:/
 
I could reinstall the product in half the time it will take to complete our own internal change control

Q: Does weapon weight effect how fast you move/run?

KevinWould i move faster running with like a sword instead of a mace or like glass weapon instead of a material heavier?

 
12:52 PM
I work on a project for the Danish state, usually if you need to have schema changes it can take 3 weeks to get the changes approved because it need to be send different places, but luckely one of the managers got a special condition for our project so we can just change the schemas, and then send in the request for change
 
@kalina I've said it before and I'll say it again: You need to find a new company
 
Mmmhmm, danish
 
@fredley I doubt I will find another job paying what I'm earning
 
That's danish with a small d
 
@kalina Have you looked?
 
12:55 PM
@fredley brief looks
 
@kalina Depends how much money is a factor for you I guess. I took a pay cut for this job and I couldn't be happier
 
@fredley I would rather not take a paycut
I am more tolerant to taking crap in exchange for more money than most, I'm just being loud about it today
 
@kalina Eh, fair enough
 
I mean, I'm 20 and get paid ~29k/year
I get to pretty much wander into the office anytime between 8-30 and 10
 
@kalina Pretty impressive
 
12:59 PM
idle here all day
very well, got Dead Space 3
 
@kalina 29k what?
 
@Blem yen, obviously
 
@Blem Zimbabwean Dollars
 
@Blem Marshmallows. We all like getting paid with marshmallows.
 
I only get paid in Trident Layers.
 
1:02 PM
Real:
 
i get paied 36.5k a month with under a year of experience
 
@Blem A month?
 
see it is dkk, it is usd $76k a year
 
36500 Danish Krone equals 6330.41 US Dollar
Says Google
 
@fredley the real problem is Arial
 
1:04 PM
@Fluttershy I wish I could get paid in Trident Layers.
 
I'm sure SEI's finance department could see to it
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Still a lot!
 
Before taxes, I presume
 
yes, and i pay a lot of taxes
Last year we where 3rd in the world
3. Denmark – 55.38 percent for those with income of at least $70,633
 
@Blem UK is high too
By the way, please tell the Stats Ministeer to make more of The Killing.
 
1:08 PM
8. United Kingdom – 50 percent for those with income of at least $234,484
I will :)
 
@Blem Oh ok
@Blem Tak
 
Good news, nothing exploded at work while I was home sick
Might vbe a first
 
Breakfast: Two plain and one egg roti prata; One Prima Deli chicken pie
Lunch: Deep fried wanton and char siew noodles
Dinner: Macaroni with alfredo mushroom sauce, meatballs and spinach
 
@tombull89 still haven't tried the multiplayer yet actually. I was never a big fan of the unlock systems, much less when essentials are locked
 
@Blem Wholly Chao!
 
1:13 PM
@OrigamiRobot I think i only pay about 48% because i pay to my pension before taxes
 
Still
 
It seems that naval oranges have more individual variance than there should be, given the fact that they are all clones
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I didn't realise this was real
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone What do you mean?
 
All naval oranges are clones of each other. They should have no genetic variance, yet each individual orange is still quite different
 
1:15 PM
Good morning, Bridge
How is everyone doing today?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I know about the clones part. There are still factors in growth that aren't genetic.
 
@fredley there goes the rest of my day
 
Morning, Bridge

Q: Rover uncontrolable in low gravity

PhilippI've built a rover with the new rover wheels. It works great on Kerbin, but when I bring it to a low-gravity world like Minmus it is uncontrolable. When I accelerate, the back goes up. When I try to decelerate, the front goes up. Driving properly is practically impossible. How can I prevent this?

 
@Michel Good choice, that's what I have
 
FAE
1:23 PM
@fredley I don't see that any of these are MMO specific though
 
@Michel That's why I ended up with the S3 instead of the HTC One X+
 
@FAE ...
 
@SaintWacko xD Weeee Now I need to learn how to use it properly ... (never had a Smart Phone before, and I work with technology.... o.O
 
@FAE It's not that they're MMO related, it's that everyone who goes to that page can move them around
I think
 
FAE
@fredley Oh I see. I thought you meant they were MMO-themed.
@SaintWacko Yeah, parsed that part now.
 
1:25 PM
@FAE No, the thing itself is MMO
 
@Michel you got a couple of hours left on humblebundle.com
@FAE I thought the same, then suddenly things started to move
 
@FAE This is actually a really cool idea
 
FAE
@SaintWacko Indeed.

Way easier to move around than the ones on my fridge. >_>

A: How can I get a high score greater than 150,000 in Tiny Wings?

drikusladies and gentleman. if i may be so bold as to boast. my current high score for this game is 448984. i am only on a x22 multiplier. i havent managed to get a higher multiplier. i am to impatient

 
@fbueckert This is a good one too!
@fbueckert Thanks =D
 
@Michel Law of conservation of grief says that somebody needed one with the day I'm having.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz How bad is your day? How can it be so bad when it's only just starting?
 
1:29 PM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone That's not even an answer.
 
I realize we're about 40% of the way through the day, but still all the same. Unless you've driven yourself to a new timezone again.
 
@GraceNote Believe me. It just need a couple of minutes to ruin your day...
 
@GraceNote Need to put down the dog tonight. :(
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz ...uf. Okay. That is pretty bleh.
 
> her trough of sorrow
 
1:30 PM
So, pretty bad.
 
I made Rice Krispy Treats. I am eating them. They are delicious.
 
This is really funny to watch
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh geez. My condolences, that's terrible.
 
@GraceNote it is 2:30 in the afternoon here, we are way past 50%
:D
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Sorry dude, I never had to do something even close to this, but I can guess how you're down today...
 
1:32 PM
@Blem Yes, but @GraceNote knows what time zone I am in.
 
@Blem 10:30 am here
 
@FAE @Michel thanks. 'sfor the best. She's got a tumor in her heart and just hasn't been herself for the past week.
 
@fredley I started a war!
 
@OrigamiRobot Haha, this is going to consume the rest of the day at this rate...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Sorry to be unable to help you in any way... =(
 
1:34 PM
I did:
upvote cats
downvote trolls
 
@OrigamiRobot Which war did you start?
@OrigamiRobot Oh, I was involved in that
I wondered who added downvote trolls to my sentence. Good idea!
 
@SaintWacko Teamwork!
 
@OrigamiRobot I was the guy trying to change it to Upvote Cat Haters.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I was the one who kept moving Haters away :P
Someone pin that link, this is awesome
 
Oh dear, what have we started here :P
 
FAE
1:37 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm so sorry. Even when it's the best decision, it's never easy. If there's anything I can do, lemme know, though I realize the means are quite limited, what with just being someone on the internet and all.

A: What is the most efficient way to find caves in Minecraft?

tongmingyangyou can probaly find cave inside hight mountains and also that there are some monster in the cave mabye 9 to 11 monsters ..... they said that caves are made by lvl 55 grandmaster creeper!??is it real...... Dungeons Dungeons are places where monsters generate, and loot can be found within chests ...

Looks like someone ripped off a wiki page wholesale.
 
1:40 PM
@FAE gives good internet hugs
 
@fredley Welcome to the internet
@fbueckert /facepalm
 
Ok guys... I think it's not going to help @LessPop_MoreFizz if we keep talking about this dark shadow. Let's talk about something to cheer him up =) Like bacon, ice cream, games...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm not sure if this will help, but here's some reflection from someone who has recently also lost his dog: subtraction.com/2012/12/07/a-grown-man-crying
 
@Michel Bacon!
Monster bacon, because I'll be playing Monster Hunter when I get home.
 
@fbueckert What sort of flag do you use for that?
 
1:41 PM
@SaintWacko Other. Plagiarism.
 
@fbueckert I wonder if there's anything useful left after deleting all the copied material
 
@fbueckert 100% lifted. [edit] is your first clue...
 
@fbueckert Precisely 10 characters. Nice
 
FAE
@OrigamiRobot \o/
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It's all copied material
Oh, wait, no, there's some very poorly written original material at the top
 
1:42 PM
Well, not all
 
Oh, great, now my flag is going to get denied
Sigh...
 
here is a cat for you @OrigamiRobot
 
 
@SaintWacko I think it's still delete worthy in its current state

Q: How does parry work?

AntoI've seen several videos (like Evo finals, etc) in which top players were abble to parry attacks: unlike blocks, parries will avoid you to lose any life (I think). One of the most famous examples, with Daigo "the beast" (SF3): ...

 
@BenBrocka if it was I'd be uploading more videos of it on Youtube

somebody from advanced support just got "pissed off" with customers and rebooted our lync host
 
@OrigamiRobot We have waaaay too much time on our hands
 
@kalina tell them to gtfo
 
1:58 PM
@spugsley I'm fine with them rebooting our lync host, it knocks our phone system offline
 
@kalina oh, in that case, yay!
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Haha no kidding
