I love my pebble. So much
@Wipqozn remakes or VC?
@BenBrocka VC
@Wipqozn Looking forward to that, did they show video? Wondering if it'll be 2D or 3D
The original art style was amazing
No idea. No mention of it being in 3D in the press releases I've read.
it's probably just a port
16:03
At any rate, after a few days of forced living in IE10, I can tell you this much: it's very much tolerable
There's nothing special about it, but the only feature I really miss is "pinned" tabs
The web works just fine in it. There's no joy but also no sorrow.

Q: Using game sub-tags but not using the game tag

SamthereThis issue came up recently after I retagged a pair (1, 2) of questions to add the dwarf-fortress tag. Both of the questions only had the dwarf-fortress-adventure tag. A while later the changes were reverted and a discussion began in the comments of the first question. My feeling was that questi...

Then again, the list of things special to any browsers is fading fast.
@badp But mah extensions! I cannot live without my extensions!
Hey, guys
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Chrome got me not to rely on extensions because each takes a process and I dislike that.
16:05
Quick note: If anyone's on the fence about buying Kerbal Space Program, buying it before the end of the month will entitle you to all future expansions, DLC, updates, et. al.

Honestly however DownThemAll is the only real reason why I have a copy of Firefox installed
@badp But... each of your tabs is already a process
Okay, back to work. Later all.
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I know, so now you have a process per tab and a process per extension and it's like process explosion
That's all I wanted to say. Continue your regularly scheduled discussions.
16:06
and while it makes it harder to leak memory unrecoverably, memory still leaks on a per-process basis
and I can't help but feel like the overall memory consumption is higher
The part I hate the most of Firefox is its sync mechanism
Locationbar2, back when it worked. Adblock Plus. Stylish and GreaseMonkey. Pocket. LastPass. Firebug. JSView and JSONView. Pdf.js. Too many to list.
@badp Eh, it works fine. What's the problem?
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Set up requires me to either have two copies of firefox running at the same time (???) or remember a silly sync key thing
on top of my password
Every time I try to set up I realize I didn't write down that bit of information and I'm back to square one

Q: Kerbal space program number binding

Buildings1772Basically i want to be able to press 2 (or any number or key) and have my all solar panels deploy instead of having to activate them all one by one with many annoying mouse click. How do I do this?

Q: What Video Card Drivers are needed to play Minecraft with this Device Info?

apotter96I have installed Windows 8 Pro and realized Minecraft doesn't work, and have found a tutorial to find out my device info. What drivers are required with this info? Manufactor: Intel Corporation Device Name: Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 Date: 7/25/2012 8:30:14 PM Model: WDD...

@badp You need your device with you, or just copy down the key. I keep mine in a thumbdrive
I haven't had a "device" for the longest time
2
16:13
Chrome has a vastly superior sync
...and a vastly superior PDF reader (even over what I've seen of PDF.js which is really slow)
@Lazers Is this not too localized?
In fact, I can't think of anything better about Firefox
Firefox's inspector stuff is pretty sexy though
Except Zotero, I do miss that
@badp pdf.js is fine. Performance isn't an issue
16:14
At any rate I've switched from IE10 exile to Firefox Nightly exile. Let's see how it works for me
@badp what do you mean by "device"?
@kalina mobile/tablet
@kalina The kind he keeps in the secret drawer
@BenBrocka this is what I read, figured he couldn't have one
OLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO
@badp I have too many devices, and a couple of "devices" too
I don't use any of my devices
PC ftw
@kalina My computer isn't awesome, so my Nexus has been a lifesaver.
@kalina What about your "devices"?
@badp lets be fair, your computer is terrible
@SaintWacko I am not discussing that
@badp My tablet is... 75% browser, 20% Pockets and 5% games
16:18
@kalina :P
my tablet is 100% watching tv shows instead of sleeping
@YiJiang'sEvilClone 60% YouTube, 30% Google Reader, 5% games
I'm not sure what the heck else are you suppose to do with it
my phone is 100% avoiding talking to people
actually "typing" stuff into either device annoys me immensely
My phone is mostly emulators, occasionally texts, calls (barf) and checking twitter/news/email
16:19
The screen does mean videos, but the YouTube app has abysmal performance and is avoided at all costs
I just use Swype so I can type with my tongue
3
@BenBrocka barf?
I hate any input method that dramatically slows down the output of data from my brain
sounded like a dog onomatopoeia for a moment
@badp vomit, regurgitation, throw-up...
16:20
@kalina Swiping is pretty good honestly
when I talk in real life though I'm one of those people who talks quietly but extremely fast
I dunno if it's as good as T9
Blow chunks, lose your cookies...
@ShotgunNinja I can Google too :P
spew, puke, disgorge...
hurl, upchuck, ruminate, heave...
be sick, retch, spit up...
16:22
are you quite finished?
What are you, a dictionary?
Well actually, a thesaurus, but still
@YiJiang'sEvilClone surely he would be a thesaurus, based on his current behaviour
Actually, I'm a Thesaurus. KING OF THE DINOSAURS
that brief moment of RDP lag...
Heya folks.
16:23
@FEichinger go away
"jk"
I promise I won't ever do that again
@kalina I DON'T BELIEVE YOU!
@FEichinger careface!
@kalina You'd better, because I almost punched a hole through my screen because of you
16:24
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I see I got my intended effect out of somebody then
VICTORY IS MINE
BWAHAHAHAHA
...never again
@kalina STILL DON'T BELIEVE YOU!
As long as it hurts you more to type that out than it hurts us to read it, we should all be safe
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I suspect that it might hurt you more than it hurts me
It did make me feel pretty dirty though
I don't think I can type those two letters in consecutive order without experiencing physical pain
aaaaaaaaaaaaa
16:27
@badp b?
If that's your answer to the MCQ quiz then you'd have failed
Interesting. Did Jin change the bullets to hanging?
@YiJiang'sEvilClone (I hope it's a bug)
.post-text li {
    word-wrap: break-word;
}
What's wrong with hanging bullets anyway? It's traditional
@badp It's Nightly's fault works in Chrome
16:30
@BenBrocka phew!
I'll deal with it.
Firefox's fault.
release has it as well.
@FEichinger ugh
cba to install aurora to check it.
@FEichinger ...I've got Nightly here
Also, it's ul that causes this, not li
ul needs a ... margin to the left, I believe, which the CSS probably cancels.
16:32
@FEichinger Oh, hrm
@FEichinger uh... according to the inspector these li's aren't in a ul.
@badp ... Then that is the problem.
Never do that. Ever.
What's the list-style-position and margin-left on the ul and li?
Actualy IE9 does it too so it is a bug it seems
16:33
bug report it, ask them to ul it.

@BenBrocka Yeh, Chrome fixes a missing ul in the DOM, afaik
@badp No closing li either? Ugh. EVIL! PURE EVIL!
Ugh... I see the questions source code
@FEichinger IF it does it doesn't show
16:34
@FEichinger I'm surprised honestly
it does however add the closing </li>

[1]:leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Lulu
@YiJiang'sEvilClone ohhhhh! That isn't what Markdown is doing
He just manually mangled the HTML
sneaks in and fixes it
@BenBrocka The closing li is automatic I think, since the HTML spec allows for that
16:34
> Tim Stone already edited the body of this post; your edit must be more substantive to override the current edit.
Oh nasty they were manually input
@badp phew That explains it.
<-- hasn't looked at the question, because busy
@TimStone aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
whywouldyoudothat.jpg
@TimStone Mind throwing in a close vote too?
16:36
Greetings everyone!
@YiJiang'sEvilClone One step ahead of you
@badp Yeah, it looks like another case of garbage in garbage out
!?!?
cc: @Jin
@TimStone Where do you see that?
In the close dialog

23 hours ago, by Jin
I really need to spend one full day on fixing all the css stuff on Arqade
23 hours ago, by Jin
that's why you guys get for being the First of Everything (aka awesome beta testers!)
(I hope the new tag stuff is a bug)
also holy hell buttons in Nightly (Firefox?) are huge.
@badp Nightly is Firefox's pre-pre-beta.
@FEichinger I'm aware. The question mark there is because I don't know if it's in Release too.
@FEichinger No, Aurora is pre beta
Nightly is... Well, Nightly
Nightly is "what we've built last night".
@YiJiang'sEvilClone True ... I don't even consider beta a thing anymore :P
@badp Well, what do you mean by "huge"?
16:40
@badp Which buttons?
is kind of obnoxious too
the same in Chrome is...
@TimStone Oh good, and I can reproduce in Firefox, so it's not Chrome dev.
ewww, padding
16:42
I suppose they aren't that far off
What's the default font size you've set for both Firefox and Chrome?
16 (in Firefox)
Sounds about right
This is IE10
Buttons in Firefox are apparently 4 pixels taller, for whatever reason.
16:45
I'm surprised that the best font rendering of the three is Chrome on Windows
Hmm, difference in default UA stylesheet? Box model?
IE10's font rendering is also usually quite alright
Well, the line-height is "normal", so I guess the difference lies there.
@badp That's not right. Chrome on Windows has atrocious font rendering
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Well, compare the three pictures and tell me the middle isn't the more readable rendering

Q: Only second controler on SNES?

JulioI'm about to buy an old SNES and some games on ebay for only a few euros. The guy on the phone is telling me the first controler port is broken. So I'd have to go with only one controler on second port. Is it possible on a SNES? I don't know how those old consoles are made. Would I be able to pla...

Q: What bonus dose elemental damage give?

BlemI have Electrial, Freez and Fire damage mods for my Melee weapon. Do they apply any other bonus than the extra damage? Do they provide some special bonus vs certain enemies or is it the same for all?

Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Beta test this weekend. jc-mp.com/times for times. You'll need a legal copy of JC2 in your Steam library to take part.
@badp meh? I'd rather Jin didn't use the fancy font for the buttons
@TimStone Ah, yeah, 'normal' is UA dependent according to MDN. 1.2 is the default for Firefox
also.
IE10 has definitely the most comfortable text rendering at smaller sizes
(yay life at 1024×768)
@badp It looks a little blurry
@YiJiang'sEvilClone but more readable, at least to me
16:50
Nintendo's making... a sequel to A Link to the Past?
On this (tablet) screen the right looks more comfortable
Could be difference in pixel density, anti aliasing though
@ShotgunNinja I'm referring to this
I AM HOME
@kalina Welcome back.
16:52
Since they're redoing all the visuals anyway, I hope they include a remake of A Link to the Past.
@badp I feel sorry for you, my phone has more pixels than your PC
I mean, you can see sections in this video that are clearly part of the existing ALttP overworld.
@kalina I have to use a TV as my monitor stopped working.
@badp did you GRR SMASH your monitor too?
I should be happy this thing has 1204×768 rather than TV resolution
@kalina No.
16:53
@kalina I AM ALSO HOME
just checking
@fredley YAY WE GOT HOME TOGETHER \o/
...in separate houses, before you perverts get any ideas
@kalina NOW KISS
@kalina I was about to say...
you're all perverts
7
@kalina Damn it, late by a few seconds
16:54
fine, whatever
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It's alright, you can still be a pervert
@fredley LETS GO TO MY ROOM PIG!
5
@kalina OK ANGEL FAIRY THING
You're not sleeping during daylight? Vacation time over?
@kalina Pork, not pig. He's cooked, you know
16:55
before anybody flags me for calling him a pig, learn the damned references
Vacation. I've heard of those before.
Wait, aren't you suppose to be vegetarian?
I think I might have even had one once.
@Coronus yeah my three weeks of living in my natural cycle is over
@Powerlord A pig, or a vegetarian?
16:56
@Coronus vacation
@YiJiang'sEvilClone -.-
@YiJiang'sEvilClone listen, I am dying for fruit pastilles right now
@kalina I'm so sorry. How is "normal life" treating you?
I could eat an entire bag by myself
but I can't
@Coronus it's horrible
waking up at bedtime
going to sleep at waking up time
I will never get used to it
@kalina Good for you. I'm going to sleep.
16:57
Also, here's hoping that the new Mario & Luigi is a great game, unlike the latest Paper Mario

Q: What does snuggling the pig do?

OrigamiRobotIn the farm, there is a pig which I have the option of snuggling. Every time I do so, it just knocks me down and runs off into the woods. Is this all that ever happens? I just want to be friends.

@OrigamiRobot downvotes
Or rather, I'm going to bed with my Big Fucking Book
Jin
Jin
@TimStone @badp did that change recently? I don't remember doing anything to the button's css
@OrigamiRobot I thought this was lazers at first. I was going to comment on how slow he was.
16:58
It looks like they are sticking with the roots of Mario & Luigi, but there's a definite focus on Luigi this time around.
@Powerlord Must say I didn't really like the looks of that game (and I loved the original), but guess it dosn't matter since I don't have a 3DS
@Jin I don't know where it is
@Wipqozn I wish it was @Lazers. He'd get points for timing.
How much is a 3DS these days, seeing as there are games for it now.
@Blem I was hoping to take a look at the Gameplay video Reggie mentions, but it's not on the 3DS eShop yet
16:59
@Jin it's all your fault, you broke it all
@RonanForman $170 for the normal, $200 for the XL (bigger).
Which is how I ended up watching the Mario & Luigi video instead.
Jin
Jin
@kalina it's my life goal, to borke your stuff
@Wipqozn The $200 XL model also comes with 1-2 games these days
@Powerlord It might look better when it is in 3d
16:59
@Jin its not my stuff, I don't mind if you break it, it gives me the opportunity to blame you for it, which is one of my favourite things
However, they're downloads as opposed to cartridges.
Might get it actually.
@kalina Sorry, you have to use the Wheel to assign blame from now on
Anyway, the new Mario & Luigi looks like it has segments that take place in Luigi's dreams
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I'm sorry, I don't believe in randomising the blame
17:01
I have a feeling professor E. Gadd is involved in this somehow.
@kalina Fine. It's always your fault, then
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I can live with that, I turned off chat pings
@James excellent point
@Blem Thanks man :)
17:01
@kalina You would've approved my WoB variant then.
On the bright side, it APPEARS that the new 3DS Zelda game uses the gamepad/joystick, a welcome change after Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks touchscreen controls.
@James Kitteh!
@Powerlord The DS Zelda games were bad
It was funny, to me, a couple years ago, at least.
@Coronus I am not sure that is what that is.. there is just like wayyyyy too much fluff to be sure :)
17:03
@OrigamiRobot They were... OK in my opinion, but they could have been better.
I want to play Evoland. Anyone have a chance to try it out?
@Coronus Yes, it's not bad. Although the RPG section is tedious due to the high encounter rate.
@James Big eyes, batting paws, fascination with shiny shiny. Conclusion: KITTEH
@Powerlord I thought they were terrible. Annoying controls and terrible dungeons you had to repeat.
17:04
@Coronus Hmm, your evidence is fairly convincing
@OrigamiRobot The repeating dungeons bit only apples to Phantom Hourglass. Spirit Tracks didn't make you repeat the lower floors of the tower.
Unless you wanted to because you missed something.
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Those were the good times.
@Powerlord It was still a terrible dungeon that you had to reenter.
Clearly I'm going to have to watch Nintendo Direct to find out how the Oracles games transfer things in this version
@badp I guess it is rchern's fault!!
17:07
@Blem Yep. She had to get hired and all and the good times ended! ):
(kinda)
I don't know these people
@kalina Different people from different times in different sites.
So anyway, I realized yesterday that Pikmin and Overlord aren't the only two series of that type
@badp I had figured that much
Little King's Story is the same type of gameplay
17:15
I want to play Pikmin again...
@badp yes, like that but blaming @OrigamiRob
@Yawus Overlord. You want to play Overlord.
Yeaaaaaah…. That dent is from a rock that almost hit my head just now. Today is going just swell. http://t.co/3V04y08uq4
Random tangent: Did the guys who made the DayZ mod for Arma make The War Z?
@badp @LessPop_MoreFizz has hairy hands
17:20
@Yawus No
@kalina So do I. What gives?
@badp I wonder where the rock came from
@badp oh, well... wanders off into the silent corner
In fact, the DayZ people were upset that the WarZ people were trying to capitalize on the similarities between their names
@Powerlord I figured if they weren't, that's what they were trying to do.
17:22
Ooh, I got the badge!
MetaScore for it is low, probably due to backlash from DayZ players/fans.
@SaintWacko bronze?
@kalina Yeah
gz
you should tell @fredley that you got the gold minecraft badge

Q: What is the most effective way of leveling mods?

BlemI am starting to get some spare mods and credits to upgrade my most used mods. But how do I get the most out of upgrading my mods, both in term of mod and credit efficiency?

17:23
So... Nintendo is releasing DLC to Super Mario Bros. Wii U that changes all the stages around... and stars Luigi
@Yawus ...Or because the developers are complete pieces of shit...
@kalina Disapprove
@SaintWacko That is also very likely.
@fredley made you look twice though
@Yawus You must have missed the huge controversy. The game is basically shit. You shouldn't play it.
pay-2-win, et cetera
and a bunch of other stuff I no longer remember
17:25
pay-2-resurrect was the best one
BUY OUR GAME
just don't die
or we'll charge you to undie
Buy our monetization strategy! I mean game! BRING MONEY
Pre-Purchase Now - Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine, 10% off!: #PrePurchase http://bit.ly/11vF1Fr
A new Yoshi's Island game?
@badp I don't wanna
Steam said to, you have to buy it now
17:32
@BenBrocka I have no idea what it is, though.
@fbueckert I just got to that part of the Nintendo Direct video and was about to mention that
@Powerlord Heck, I'm not even here, and I still beat you to it.
Although I was waiting to see if he mentioned either of the other two Mother games
@BenBrocka I don't listen to what Steam tells me, if they were a good company they would have bought out Half Life 3 by now
17:42
I'm surprised Steam didn't put Overlord on sale this week to steal some business from GoG who just started selling the first game.
To put it nicely: I bought Overlord, Overlord: Raising Hell, and Overlord 2 for $5 during a Steam sale. GoG is selling Overlord + Raising Hell for $10
Also, why is the Animal Crossing version of the 3DS XL $20 more than the other 3DS XL models?
The version with Luigi's Mansion (or Professor Layton) is $200, the Animal Crossing version is $220
@Powerlord Target audience.
Maybe Nintendo discontinued the free game thingy
Twitter exploded over the earthbound etc reveals
At least mine did, I follow many gamers
The animal crossing one vibes with ac installed iirc
Comes
Did the other promo 3dses?
17:48
@BenBrocka They had a redeemable code for one of 5 games or something like that.
Those games used to be... lets see... Super Mario 3D Land, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, and 3 others I don't remember.
I haven't kept up since I already bought one. Would have liked an ac or pikachu themed 3ds though
New Art Academy, New Style Boutique, and Freakyforms Deluxe were the other 3
Still have my pikachu gbc from before people bought all the limited edition items to sell them online so no one could get them
I'm still trying to figure out why Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy is coming out in 2013 in Europe, but not until 2014 in North America.
Also, Level 5's The Starshop Damrey sounds like it could be interesting.
Because they have to translate it into English--oh right
17:56
Have you guys seen this website?
itcouldhappentoallof.us
glares at Nintendo You promised us a Zelda video "shortly" after your Nintendo Direct.
@Retrosaur Cheeseburgers. Cheeseburgers can happen to anyone at anytime. We must be mentally prepared for cheeseburgers.
I don't know when the Nintendo Direct was first published, but it was at least an hour ago
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I ate a delicious cheeseburger for lunch.
@Powerlord you are certainly liberal with your definition of shortly
17:59
With bacon!
probably days left yet
@OrigamiRobot you have 15 minutes left until "it happens to you"
@kalina If I tell you I'll be out with your cheeseburger shortly after I finish taking your order, do you expect it several days later?
