@kalina What raid do you run that needs rebuilding to move to raid5?!
 
@fbueckert not sure what you mean
@djsmiley2k nothing, I didn't realise I needed a reason to play around with computers for fun
 
@kalina Check out that Soul Reaver question.
 
@kalina I don't have anything to say, but everyone else is pinging you and I just want to be popular.

Q: How do I retexture Minecraft blocks

JiaWei YangI am curious how I can retexture my minecaft blocks so it would look better :D

 
@kalina Ok let me rephrase, what Raid setup won't let you?
 
4:02 PM
@GrumpyLazers Good of him to stick around after his first question got closed.
 
Or it will, but you enjoy formatting for hours upon hours?
Buidling a raid on 2Tb disks x 12 == about a week d:
D:
 
@djsmiley2k I am confused
you are confusing me
 
whoops?
 
who said anything about 2tb discs
what
mmm cake
 
38 mins ago, by kalina
the 2tb disc will be to take a backup of everything on the array currently, before I destroy it
 
4:03 PM
yeah I still don't follow
I think it's because you didn't read the whole thing
 
Ok.
maybe
maybe not
 
the raid array is made up of 1tb discs x4
the 2tb disc will sit on a shelf
 
Maybe it's the windows centric universe you exist in.
 
Wait, what? 15 new episodes of Arrested Development all releasing simultaneously on May 26? Score!
 
MAYBE IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT
 
4:04 PM
Ok, so why can't you just add a disk and move to raid5?
 
@Sterno the simultaneous release is awesome
AD really only works if you can see multiple episodes
I mean COME ON
 
controller doesn't have an option for it
 
Oh lord
Hardware raid controlers?
LSi?
 
@BenBrocka Especially since May 27th is Memorial Day
 
letters
 
4:05 PM
/me runs away screaming
Night all o/
 
numbers
punctuation
 
I am full of sub, but I want skittles :(
 
Go to subway, then coat the outside of the sub in skittles
 
mmm sub
I WANT SUBWAY
om nom nom
2
 
4:07 PM
@BenBrocka No, I already ate the sub.
It was Jersey Mike's
I got cheese on it!
 
@BenBrocka To be fair, they're living in a display model house in that show. It makes sense!
Next mod election I'm voting for whoever campaigns on the promise of smacking down those who inexpertly use stars.
4
 
@Sterno unfortunately there's no "ban who starred this" button
 
@BenBrocka This is easily remedied by banning at random until all stars are used expertly.
 
Noooooo!
Lost this character :(
To stupidly out of depth Gastronok summons
 
You lost a (?
 
4:17 PM
That should have been an easy win
@FEichinger What?
Oh. That was forced
Shame on you
 
sits in bad-puns-corner
 
@SaintWacko Playing .12 for the tournament?
 
I'm always there. ALWAYS.
 
@StrixVaria Yeah
 
@SaintWacko I wouldn't call it forced at all. +1 to @FEichinger
 
4:19 PM
@SaintWacko Do spears cause hydras to grow extra heads?
I've been using maces just so I have a reliable way to deal with hydras.
 
I had an amazing game going, and then Gastronok summoned four skeletal warriors on D:12
You normally don't see those until after D:20
That was stupid
 
and no, they don't
only weapons that do slashing damage cause that
 
So apparently someone's put together a method for decrypting PS3 hard drives on Linux, but I can't decipher it. I know code, but it doesn't really tell me what to do.
 
ooh baby I feel like music sounds better with you
 
4:27 PM
@kalina Why, thank you!
 
@SaintWacko Obviously she murdered @Wipqozn and is using his hollowed out shell for it's acoustic properties.

@OrigamiRobot Good idea
 
HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
 
@spugsley Go back to sleep.
 
@OrigamiRobot ummmmm it's 12:30
 
4:36 PM
I know, I stand by what I said.
 
@spugsley is my favorite person named @spugsley.
Also, my least favorite.
 
Awwww yiss

Q: World monsters spawn time

AkylWhat are the server spawn times for elder dragons and world creatures such as the giant flaming elemental in Asura? Is there a wiki for this type of information?

 
@Sterno was this necessary?
 
4:43 PM
@spugsley This is The Bridge. I'm pretty sure nothing here is necessary.

@StrixVaria this cat is my spirit animal
well, second to the screaming Taylor Swift goat
 
4:56 PM
Shitty half assed headache
Just chilling out in the back of my mind
 
@Ullallulloo I wouldn't close it for that reason, but it is pretty vague.
 
whacks the SourceMod devs

Q: Stat resets for Class change

newuserI have read that when you change classes into a Monk or BeastMaster, you get a free skill reset. Does this also come with a free stat reset?

 
They forgot to change the visibility of the TFResourceNames array when the script itself has to look them up.
 
@Ullallulloo It's a pretty localized problem. One that only happens with a physical disk, and a PS1.
Seems more to be, "This was something I ran into ten years ago."
 
5:18 PM
@fbueckert I'm on @Ullallulloo's side here. We shouldn't stop supporting consoles just because they become less popular.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm not saying don't support the console.
I'm saying the chances of anyone encountering this is incredibly low.
 
According to?
 
Age of system, specific hardware that caused this issue, and there not actually being a problem.
 
What's the cutoff for system age?
 
PS2 games can play PS1 games, if I'm remembering correctly, and if they have this same problem, I'm all for re-opening it.
@OrigamiRobot When the last one dies?
 
5:20 PM
So then what's the problem with the system's age?
 
Do you know anybody who still uses a PS1? I don't.
 
I do.
 
@fbueckert That isn't even remotely how "too localized" is meant to be used.
 
I still know people who play older systems than PS1.
 
And I'd kill to have all my old PS1 games.
 
5:22 PM
@GraceNote I still play my SNES from time to time.
Ok, age of system was a bad argument.
 
I know very few people who play Avernum: Escape From the Pit. As my question with no answers and very few views indicates. It doesn't mean questions about it are too localized.
 
My point in this one is that there really isn't a problem being solved here. It's seeding for the sake of seeding.
If someone with a functional PS1 has this problem, great! Ask the question.
 
I'm pretty sure if I asked a question about Steel battalion, I'd be the only one capable of answering it in any reasonable amount of time.
 
@Sterno I haven't read the question, but didn't someone just say it was about a problem a user used to have?
 
@fbueckert Just because someone can answer their own question doesn't mean a problem isn't being solved.
 
5:24 PM
@Powerlord The author of the question notes in a comment that he knows multiple individuals who have run into the same issue.
 
@Sterno If whoever has a working PS1 can test this, and reproduce it, great.
Over the last three months I heard four different people say how interesting the game was back in the days, and how they struggled with this exact issue, so I felt like posting this, at least just so people knew this could be fixed. — user1306322 1 hour ago
It's all past tense.
Something like years since it was a problem.
 
Three months doesn't sound like years.
 
@GraceNote That's some selective reading.
> how interesting the game was back in the days, and how they struggled with this exact issue
All past tense.
 
Which, if they're still complaining about it to this day, means that it still exists as a problem.
 
Nowhere is it said they're trying to play it now, and if they still have that problem.
 
5:26 PM
If they had solved the problem back then, then it wouldn't be a meaningful topic of conversation.
 
Okay, here's my problem. When someone adds a comment to their question which gives you some insight into why they're asking, that shouldn't suddenly make the question invalid. The why should not matter.
 
I don't agree with that interpretation. But that's my viewpoint.
@Sterno No, that reinforces my opinion.
 
But the implication in bringing it up at a later point is because it was unresolved. I had a similar problem with Star Ocean 3. Then I got it fixed years ago by having the CD cleaned and also by doing the same trick (eject disc, re-insert if it hangs) when even that didn't work. I ain't going to suddenly muse about that problem now without an impetus to think specifically about it, because if I think about SO3 nowadays, I'm just going to work off of my last experience, which is fully functional.
It exists as a problem that individuals have run into, and as an added benefit the author even provided a solution for anyone who has not yet arrived at the solution.
 
@GraceNote That's one way to think about it. Personally, if I have a problem with a game, I usually remember what the problem was, and how I fixed it.
That's my interpretation of it. They had a problem, fixed it, and continued to enjoy the game.
 
@fbueckert That doesn't mean they aren't allowed to share the solution.
 
5:32 PM
@OrigamiRobot Honestly, does a solution for a system a decade out of date actually help anyone?
That's a serious question.
 
It could, and it's not doing anyone any harm if it doesn't.
 
It helps people who still use that system, which is not a non-existent number.
 
Alright. I don't agree, but I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority on this one.
 
@fbueckert Closer to two decades now.
Well, I guess that depends on when you're figuring from. The PS1 came out in 1995 and was replaced by the PS2 in 2001.
Or was PS2 2000?
 
If someone with a functional PS1 can reproduce the problem, I withdraw my objection.
 
5:42 PM
All questions must be validated before being allowed to remain open!
gets close votes ready
I'm gonna need a bigger boat.
 
@Sterno For 15 year old consoles, yeah. Especially when there are alternate methods to playing said game.
 
user15026
@fredley that story was terrifically depressing. Good job!
 
@fbueckert I think we agree that we agree to disagree. I will say that everything you say sounds like very valid downvote reasons.
 
Man, I told myself I wouldn't get this invested again.
It's one question. I don't like it, I feel it's not useful, nor even valid.
Moving on.
 
5:50 PM
Alright, back to the topic of screaming goats then.
 
@Sterno Why are goats screaming?
 
This is cute, SourceMod's TF2_GetPlayerData is broken anyway, as half the things in the enum it takes don't exist in the entity it's looking at.
 
@Powerlord Free? Nice.
 
@fbueckert Start with this. Then find mashups that use it
 
I wonder if you have to install it after Windows 8, or you can install from scratch.
 
user15026
5:57 PM
@fbueckert That is not how too localized works. I know I am late to the party but I fail to see how someone playing on an older console is cause for closure. Then any questions I have about my ps2 should be closed, if I were to have any, which is ridiculous.
 
@AshleyNunn I'm not really in the mood for continuing this, sorry.
 
user15026
@fbueckert That's fine. I was just expressing my opinion
 
There was more to it than, "Console old, close question."
 
user15026
@fbueckert I am aware, I read the entire conversation
 
(someone help I got linked the pokemon fusion site again)
 
6:05 PM
 
user15026
@BenBrocka Face it you are doommed
 
So if you do a Google Image Search for "atari breakout" you get to play breakout with the search results ^_^.
 
@BenBrocka Does it count as "help" if I just give you more humorous combinations?
 
@tombull89 I don't know why, but that made me remember the most frightening Atari commercial ever
 
@Sterno wow.
If only it actually looked like that.
 
6:17 PM
@GraceNote Come at me bro
 
Spearow + Primeape = Spearape. o.O
 
@GraceNote that's what I just linked you
 
6:20 PM
@BenBrocka Er. Oops. Let me fix that.
 
copy the link at the bottom
 
Fearow + Primape = Fearape.
 
@OrigamiRobot cute.
 
@GraceNote is that...shellder?
oh tangella
 
6:24 PM
 
TIL @badp is a tangella
 
TIWR work is boring
 
@GraceNote haha, that's a good one.
 
6:31 PM
I just logged in to the Humble Bundle library for the first time and found out I have way more games than I thought.

Q: Is there an HP glitch for Noel in Final Fantasy XIII-2?

Kevin MarchaelI fought the long gui (and lost), I selected "retry" but did not fight him again. However, in my next battle with a weak enemy, Noel had only a critical level of HP. Every battle since has started with the same critical level... has anyone else had this problem? He can be cured with wound potion,...

 
SKITTLES \o/
SOUR ONES \o/
 
Fearcute is anything but
 
oh no, invasion of the pokemon
 
@kalina Eat more skittles to repel them.
 
6:42 PM
Don't fear! be fearfree!
 
Skittles with fearow's protruding beak
 
@OrigamiRobot Voltrow seems far more creepy.
 
@OrigamiRobot the pink ones
 
Fearorb would be a fitting name for such abominations
 
6:44 PM
@kalina Eh?
 
Okay, so my crawl sprites messed up, and when I started a new game, I saw this
@badp @StrixVaria
For those who don't know, those monsters showing up there are extremely dangerous high level monsters
 
@OrigamiRobot you'll work it out
 
@SaintWacko Welcome to Roguelikes!
 
@kalina There are no pink sour skittles.
 
~as we dance to the Masochism Tango~
 
6:47 PM
@Powerlord It was just a glitch
 
you are wrong
 
That can't actually happen lol
 
DOES THE UK HAVE PINK SOUR SKITTLES?
SKITTLES WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?
 
The sprite lookup grid got shifted somehow, so it was displaying the wrong sprites
They're really mushrooms and grass
 
@SaintWacko So now muchrooms and grass are possible life threathening things?
5
 
6:49 PM
 
@Arperum What?
 
I'm surprised that message didn't get starred sooner. Usually the bridge loves things like that when the context is removed.
 
@OrigamiRobot they are the best ones too
 
@kalina I don't believe you.
 
@OrigamiRobot ...
 
6:52 PM
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU
 
Anyway, since mushrooms help protect from zombies at night, I wouldn't call them life threatening.
 
So, spider skittles have ruined kalina for skittles, and the lack of pink skittles have ruined skittles for OrigamiRobot?
 
Too many carbs ruined skittles for me. Even a small bag has like 45 carbs
 
@OrigamiRobot wow, I'm not eating sour skittles
@OrigamiRobot I'm eating "crazy" sour skittles
 
@kalina I CAN'T BELI... reads next message ...never mind.
 
6:54 PM
@kalina Watermelon and Green Apple were recently added. I still have Stawberry and Lime in mine.
 
Sour Raspberry (pink)
 
yep
my packet has more writing on it though
 
@grace ...tanglet?
 
That's what I have.
 
6:55 PM
@badp Aye
 
@OrigamiRobot they don't even look like skittles
 
Tangling cables is something I'm good at but I always chalked it up to entropy
 
@SaintWacko late reaction , but whatever, now the things who have the sprite of mushrooms and grass are possibly out to kill you, since mushrooms got the sprite of some random monster.
 
@Arperum Oh, ha
Yeah, I refreshed it to reset the lookup table, so it's fixed now
 
6:57 PM
I mean. Tanglet.
 
@kalina They look exactly like skittles...
 
they look like they're powdery
 
That would be intersting to play it with the sprites messed up
 
@Arperum The shift was probably an offset not a swap so the mushrooms and grass probably got some other unrelated tiles
 
@SaintWacko This happens to me sometimes. I generally have to refresh the whole page.
 
6:58 PM
I hope SourceMod is smart enough to allow me to specify an index to get stuff from m_ScoreData
 
@StrixVaria It happens to me if I accidentally click Trunk first, then say no to the prompt and start up a .12 game
 
yea, I would expect so, but they also might be any monster, or maybe just a shirt or a piece of furniture or something.
 
Because m_ScoreData appears to be a struct on the server side, and I can see the named members but not fetch them back by name.
 
@kalina That's the sour powder.
Do your sour skittles not have sour powder?
 
the sourness is cooked into ours
 
6:59 PM
Nope.
 
I GUESS WE ARE JUST BETTER
 
Inferior
 
@SaintWacko Yeah, I think it happens to me when I view someone else playing .12 then load up my own trunk game.
 
@kalina You don't get the glorious sour powder that's left at the bottom of the package.
 
@OrigamiRobot is fueled by sour powder and inane arguments
 
7:01 PM
@BenBrocka And @Wipqozn's tears.
 
@OrigamiRobot Delicious Bacon
Another week, another Firefox version.
 
ugh virtual machine I hate you so

Q: Is there a way to tell if I've successfully joined a squad?

BrysonicOn the wiki page for Squad, it says: Squads are limited to 30 players. In the past, when I've right-clicked on a commander's icon and selected "Join Squad", I didn't receive any visual feedback that I had joined. I now suspect that it's because it was full. Is there a way to tell whether yo...

Q: Minecraft Survival Mods

AdamPMy friends and I have a minecraft server that we have had for quite some time. We have built castles and boats and dug to the depths of the ocean and had wars that involved a lot of TNT and server crashing. Frankly we are bored. I have seen some mods that change minecraft from a "creative sandbox...

 
7:27 PM
OMG
so cold...
so wet...
6
so much for summer time England
thanks for that!
back soon moving to st barthelemy
 
@OrigamiRobot My tears are pretty delicious.
 
@wip what's so special about them? Are they sweet instead of salty?
 
@OrigamiRobot There’s a chance that this is all a video game and Skittles are the power-ups.
 
I would be ok with this.
 
MY CREATIVITY IS DEADDDDDDDDDDDDDD
 
7:37 PM
@spugsley Get out a piece of paper and continually write. If nothing come out after that time, then relax and don't do anything creative-directed for a few days. Don't even think about it.
 
@GraceNote I wish I could but the 365 dictates at least one photo per day....even if it sucks ass :(
 
@spugsley ...uf
 
@GraceNote and I hate sucking ass
 
@spugsley I figured.
 
@GraceNote She is being dramatic. She complains and whines and ends up with something she loves. It's all part of her creative process.
 
7:38 PM
@spugsley oh great, artsy zombies
 
@spugsley eat a bag of skittles = creativity restored
if you eat an entire bag in under 30 seconds, you will literally taste the rainbow
see the rainbow...
be the rainbow...
probably even puke the rainbow
oh wait, no that's after eating several bags in 30 minutes
nevermind
 
:p
 
you would be able to photograph it though, I imagine it would be colourful
waste of skittles though
 
"Waste of skittles" sounds redundant.
 
@kalina lol rainbow barf sounds more creative than it should
 
7:44 PM
@GraceNote hater
 
aw yiss
That looks amazing.
 
@kalina It's not her fault. Mobile artillery pieces don't have much of a taste for sour things.
 
Sour is an unnecessary qualifier. I don't have to discriminate there.
 
I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here.
 
@GraceNote I actually only said "skittles", joke is on you
 
7:48 PM
@kalina So did I.
 
HATER
I am going to buy a massive box of skittles and send it to the stackexchange office
 
If I don't taste sour, then sour skittles are the same as skittles. Which means that if "sour" skittles taste like something I could only depict in pictographical form as a slug made of plaster thrown in a woodchipper, then so too would normal skittles.
 
I... that's very graphically described
but skittles and sour skittles do not taste anything like each other
but fine, I will get you crazy core skittles
 
@GraceNote Keep in mind that @kalina has not had proper sour skittles.
 
@OrigamiRobot Right, hers lack the sour powder.
 
7:51 PM
She has only had skittles with "sour" flavors.
I imagine her sour skittles are more akin to Shock Tarts.
 
@OrigamiRobot I can fall out with you
just keep taking the side of the hater
 
@kalina You'll have to buy me dinner first.
 
you have obviously been eating confused skittles, on account of you being confused
dinner is not a requirement for me to fall out with somebody
 
Oh my.
I don't want to rush into anything.
 
rofl
I hate it when that happens
bad movie does something technologically stupid
