12:01 AM
That's just bad journalism, making the problem look 10 times worse than it actually is
 
Look at how many bridges would totally decapitate that cat if it was sitting on top of a tractor trailer! Unacceptable!
 
The achievements for Rogue Legacy have no descriptions.
 
Alrighty, I'm back now. Hi guys :)
 
@StrixVaria Nope.
I noticed that, too.
 
If you buy a weapon, does that stick around forever?
Like it's 250 gold for a basic sword, which is kind of a lot (for now).
Is every character from now on going to have it?
 
12:15 AM
what should I treat myself to for dinner? @IanPugsley isn't home so I can have whatever I want!!!!!
 
@spugsley Sushi.
 
@Wipqozn mmmm that does sound tasty
 
The answer is yes, it persists.
I died that fast.
 
@spugsley A large Wendy's frosty and some fries to dip in it!
 
user20683
Sushi for a skinny Pugsley :)
 
12:18 AM
@Fluttershy omg you are the worst
 
@spugsley Far from it. I just don't really feel like there's any reason you shouldn't enjoy a frosty.
 
@WorldEngineer sushi is goooddddd but now I'm thinking I might want sesame chicken.
 
user20683
@spugsley Yakitori?
 
@WorldEngineer mmmmmmmmmmmm
 
Sushi.
 
12:20 AM
I could also order an entire pizza
and not share it
 
Don't listen to @Fluttershy. He's a goose.
 
user20683
ugh
 
So many dead people.
 
user15026
@spugsley yuuuummmmmmmy
 
@Sterno my bad
 
FAE
12:22 AM
@spugsley Sesame chicken so I can live vicariously through you
 
Now I wish I'd had Chinese instead of Wendy's tonight. =(
 
@FAE IT IS SETTLED!!!!
 
FAE
@spugsley Excellent.
 
I CANNOT STOP PLAYING
 
user20683
@spugsley sesame chicken pizza?
 
12:23 AM
lol gross
 
@WorldEngineer I want this now.
 
@spugsley I dunno. It could potentially be good.
 
@Fluttershy nope. I'm a cheese pizza kind of girl
 
Teriyaki or ginger sauce instead of marinara, and fried rice instead of cheese. <_<
 
O_o ewww
 
12:24 AM
@spugsley Nothing wrong with that!
 
user15026
@Fluttershy that would work
 
@StrixVaria I was having a good run and ran into a guy named Botis. He ended my good run.
 
fried rice on... pizza?
HERETIC!
 
@Sterno Yeah, he does that.
If you kill him, though, you get a blueprint!
 
@Sterno I had just started a new run and I found a chest hanging out by itself in a room. Then there was a zombie in the room, so I was like "meh zombies are lame". Then the zombie didn't die or get knocked back when I attacked it. Then I was dead.
The trap rooms are actually pretty amazing.
 
12:27 AM
Good times
 
They add a kind of horrible frustrating charm.
 
I seem to be leveling up as I go. Does this game just take pity on me and start making guys stronger?
Because I'm not sure I'll enjoy a "suck your way to victory" mechanic
 
Your guy is probably getting stronger because you're buying upgrades, no?

Q: Do you need a teleporter to use a Boarding Drone?

avestar101I recently found a Boarding Drone, but was wondering; do you need a teleporter to teleport the drone onto the enemy ship, or does it automatically spawn at a room in the enemy ship?

 
@StrixVaria That's equipment though, not levels, right?
Man, I don't know what flaw I just took, but ouch:
 
12:32 AM
@Sterno I don't know what you mean by "levels".
 
user20683
@Fluttershy You'd use mushrooms and possibly miso instead of cheese
 
I had one run where I managed to accumulate over 3K gold. So handy.
 
At the castle you can upgrade base stats like damage, int, etc.
 
user20683
you want a component that's loaded with glutamaic acid
 
Then at the blacksmith you can buy equipment if you've found blueprints.
 
FAE
12:33 AM
@WorldEngineer he hates mushrooms
 
user20683
heretic
 
user20683
:P
 
image taking forever to upload
 
user15026
@FAE He hates mushrooms and he doesn't eat cake. sigh
 
@AshleyNunn Accurate.
 
FAE
12:33 AM
@AshleyNunn I know, whatever am I gonna do with him?
 
user15026
@Fluttershy hopeless/ ;)
 
user20683
@Fluttershy Pie?
 
@WorldEngineer I love pie! :3
 
@StrixVaria Top left of your screen says your level
 
user15026
12:34 AM
@FAE I have no idea. It's hopeless.
 
or maybe top right. Really hard for me to tell right now
 
@FAE =(
 
@Sterno I think that's based on the fact that you've upgraded this class?
I think there's a website to answer this kind of question.
 
user15026
Oh, I know, trade him in for a red panda, they're just as cute
 
@StrixVaria Maybe. Haven't upgraded any more than once.
 
12:35 AM
@AshleyNunn I am totally cuter than a red panda. Well... maybe not cuter. But definitely less vicious.
 
user15026
@Fluttershy So you claim.... ;)
 
@Sterno Vertigo
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I don't know why but I can't stop laughing at this
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Is it muffins?
 
12:36 AM
@FAE Ummmm..... after a fashion.
 
user20683
Endless Space is 66% off this weekend.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz ...lol
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well, slightly related. I read that apparently during the filibuster, CNN was reporting on the caloric content of muffins or something.
 
@FAE I was referring more to the trash can and sheet incident.
 
user20683
@FAE They must have been paid off by Erdogan.
 
Who knows what went into that trash can!
 
12:38 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'll bet the City Council knows! They are, after all, all-knowing.
 
@Fluttershy The St. Louis city council? :O
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I never specified which city council.
 
So it turns out I'm too lazy to leave the house and am now having watermelon for dinner
 
user15026
@spugsley Sounds good to me, but I had ice cream, so what do I know
 
12:50 AM
@spugsley www.grubhub.com
 
@spugsley That's... not much of a dinner. =\
 
@Fluttershy I concur.
Go get sushi.
 
@spugsley There are some pizza places that will deliver it right to your front door.
 
@Sterno WHoa! That's crazy! I've never heard of these kind of places.
You must ive in some crazy high tech place of a the future.
 
@Wipqozn It's a new thing.
 
FAE
12:53 AM
@Wipqozn Fun fact: Where I grew up, there was no pizza delivery unless you drove to meet them at least halfway and they still charged extra for having to go that far.
 
Where I grew up, there were no pizza places, delivered or otherwise.
We had one Hardees. And eventually a Subway
 
@Sterno When was that? THE STONE AGES!? HAHAHAHAHAHAA
 
FAE
I think I was... 19 or so, the first time I ordered food to be delivered, when I was in Syracuse.
 
@FAE That's quite annoying.
 
@Wipqozn Words hurt, @Wipqozn. Words hurt.
 
12:54 AM
@Sterno Good.
 
Flagged as "called Sterno old"
5
 
user15026
@FAE I didn't have delivery until I moved to Waterloo when I was 20
 
I've always been able to get pizza delivered. I guess I'm just special.
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I was like "Holy crap, you can pay people to bring food to your house, this is amazing."
 
@Sterno Hold off on the questions for a bit, I need to run and grab some supper :P
 
12:56 AM
So I've been thinking... Bacon. That is all.
 
@SaintWacko Supper? It's 10pm. too late for supper.
 
You can accept an answer in 10 minutes. Thanks, but I know it's right now.
 
@Powerlord I'm shocked.
 
user15026
@FAE I was so delighted, and also baffled
 
user15026
It was like when I learned that some of the grocery stores were 24 hours. Heck, anything open after like....6 or 7 pm was delightful
 
FAE
12:58 AM
@AshleyNunn The town closest to us had a Wegmans, which is a 24 hour grocery store chain, so that wasn't too foreign to me.
Though that town now has a 24 hour Wal-Mart, which is just completely unnecessary, IMO.
 
user20683
I live within easy walking distance of a 24 hour Kroger
 
user20683
and 2 blocks away from like 18 hours worth of open food places
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer Yeah, now I live close to like anything I want ever, so it is less amazing, but it still manages to baffle my family XD
 
@Wipqozn 8PM*
 
user20683
I can baffle people easily. I just go buy Mexican Coca-cola, a Bounty Bar, and some ramen where all the writing on the package is Japanese and the flavor is "Seaweed".
 
1:01 AM
@Sterno Haha
 
user20683
All from the same Aisle I might add
 
Oh, was I right about the secret passage? Is it dark on both sides of the wall?
Oh my god vertigo is going to be weird
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer I don't like bounty bars at all
 
user20683
I've never had one, Almond Joys are much, much cheaper
 
user15026
I just don't like coconut
 
1:03 AM
@FAE My girlfriend woke up one morning at a bit past 4:00 and couldn't go back to sleep, so she went to Walmart to get groceries >_>
 
FAE
@TimStone lol
 
user15026
@TimStone I've done that.
 
@FAE I wish I grew up close to a Wegmans. :(
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz I miss it. :(
 
The prepared food area of the King of Prussia Wegmans is intimidating. We went in there at lunch for work one day and I was overwhelmed by the amount of selection.
 
1:07 AM
do you ever hear a word and then every time you hear that word after you learn it, you just want to scream it?
Wegman's is one of those words for me
I just really want to be like "WEGMANNNNNNSSSSS"
 
The real question is why there isn't an audio clip of you doing so.
 
user15026
@TimStone I second this question
 
FAE
@spugsley It is awesome enough to merit this.
 
@TimStone Every Wegmans is like that.
@spugsley This is an appropriate reaction.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz The Whole Foods that's closer to the office is not as impressive, unfortunately. But they do have a Taco Truck on the roof.
 
1:09 AM
if I made audio clips of every time I wanted to yell a word, I'd never have time to do anything else :(
 
@FAE I wish they were in downstate NY. They have instead decided to encircle my home, taunting me with expansion in PA, Maryland, Delaware, DC, VA...

Q: Do PS2 emulators work with USB PS2 controllers?

SuperCheezGiI was thinking about buying a PS2 controller adapter to USB and was going to use it in an emulator since my PS2 recently died and I didn't want to have to get a new one. If anyone has any experience with this, I would like some information.

1
Q: How is level determined?

SternoI'm pretty sure when I started the game, my guy was level 1. After playing a while, all my guys seem to be level 8. Do later generations level up at a fixed rate, making the game easier the more you play, or is it tied to upgrades I've purchased (such as upgrading knight to paladin)?

0
Q: Admins On My Minecraft Server

Ethan BaconI have just set up a new Minecraft server and was wondering: how do I put myself in creative and no one else? Is this a Bukkit plugin or can I do this without Bukkit? Remember I just want me to be in creative.

0
Q: Can you get to blocked in areas?

SternoI keep running into areas where I see a chest in a section of the room that seems completely walled off. Is there any way to get to these, or is that just the randomly generated dungeon being a tease? I had to splice two screenshots together to show an example of what I'm talking about: Is the...

 
OMG LAZERS
 
@TimStone Wegmans > Whole Foods.
The CEO of Whole Foods is a grade a dick.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, I was really surprised to learn they were down as far as Maryland now.
 
1:13 AM
SESAME CHICKEN TIMEEEEEEe
 
@spugsley Yayyy! You decided to go get some?
 
@Fluttershy yeah they are just gonna have to deal with me being in holy boxers WHATEV
 
@spugsley Holy? Or holey? <_<
Like... do your boxers have a halo and angel wings?
 
@Fluttershy yes. They definitely do
 
Outstanding.
 
1:15 AM
@Fluttershy I'm really happy you caught that subtle difference. I don't want people thinking I'm running around with holes in my boxers. Please.
well, I mean, it does have a wang hole. But it's useless.
TOO FAR?!? OH WELL LEAVING FOR FOOD
 
@spugsley Unsure if sarcasm, or passive aggressively calling me out on my calling out a typo. >_>
Or serious.
It could be serious.
 
@Fluttershy lol I'm mainly just being a dick
:p cause I lurve you
 
I come on here, and I see @spugsley talking about wangholes and dicks.
 
@spugsley But I thought you said the wang hole was useless
 
1:17 AM
@spugsley <3
 
FRUENDIAN MUCH?
;p
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz HAHAHA YOU ARE MY FAVORITE PERSON NOW
anyway brb :3
 
1:29 AM
YAAAAY
FASTEST SESAME CHICKEN EVER
 
user15026
.....motherfucking piece of shit. I have babied my fucking Kobo Glo and for some fucking reason the screeen is fucked up, and I have no idea why and I dont want to have to replace it again but I am pretty sure I have to
 
@AshleyNunn You have the WORST luck with e-readers.
 
the rage of @AshleyNunn is the most scariest of rages ;.;
2
 
user15026
@fbueckert I fucking babied this thing. Protective case, never let it get wet, never dropped it, never ANYTHING and now it doesnt work and I am sick and all I wanted to do was curl up with the book I bought today and I cant and this fucking sucks
 
@AshleyNunn :(
 
1:32 AM
@AshleyNunn I dunno how that happens. You take really good care of it, and it just up and dies on you.
 
user15026
@fbueckert The worst part? THIS IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MODEL
 
That sucks.
 
user15026
I am half tempted to get the Kindle Paperwhite or something but then I have to convert EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY EBOOKS
 
@AshleyNunn 1) Calibre makes that pretty easy. 2) Amazon just started a buy a paperwhite get some kindle book dollars promo today.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Calibre's amazing and I <3 it.
 
user15026
1:34 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Will Calibre let me mass convert my entire library without having to do it book by book?
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Maybe you're a wizard.
 
@AshleyNunn Yes.
 
Sooooo.... anyone know anything about Cincinnati that they want to tell me?
 
user15026
@FAE A wizard of terrible breaking things?
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn (Dresden Files reference)
 
1:34 AM
Calibre is a steaming pile of crap that needs to be "disrupted" in the Hacker News-reading venture capitalist douchebag sense of the word, but it's the best thing out there because it can convert anything to anything.
 
user15026
@FAE I still need to read those
 
user15026
they're....on my reader
 
user15026
@Brant I dont know what that means
 
… Neither do I, that sentence was kind of half-baked.
But I had to say it before the conversation moved on without me!
 
FAE
@Brant That's pretty much the only reason I use it, and it's decent for that purpose.
 
user15026
1:35 AM
I am debating if I want to fuck around with Kobo support because techincally it is under warranty but last time I had this sort of screen issue they just told me I broke it
 
@AshleyNunn I've converted something like 20 epubs to mobi at one time. As far as I know, there's not really a limit. But that just shows that you can convert multiple books at a time! =D
 
user15026
@Fluttershy Awesome, because I have a lot of epubs
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Pretty much always worth getting a shot.
 
user15026
Does anyone have a Kindle Paperwhite? if so, thoughts on it?
 
@AshleyNunn want me to pretend to be you? I will fuck their day up
 
1:36 AM
HVJHVDSGHVJHABSJHVASHJ THIS HOTEL INTERNET
 
I hate calibre so much. It's slow, the UI is horrible, and… well, mainly those two things, but holy shit is it horrible. But it's still pretty awesome in the sense that you can throw pretty much any ebook format at it and get a readable version in any other ebook format. (or a folder full of ebooks. or a dvd-rom.)
 
user15026
@spugsley its tempting, becase I will likley cry on them
 
I have been trying to get a stupid 6.6 MB email attachment to download for an hour now with no luck.
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn @Fluttershy does, and another friend of mine does. I've heard good things.
 
user15026
@FAE yeah I just have to find their support info again, they hide it well
 
1:37 AM
@AshleyNunn I have a pre-paperwhite Kindle. (it's one of the old big chin keyboard models), and it's easily the best E-Ink reader ever made.
 
user15026
I just want one that is back lit and wont DIE ON ME
 
user15026
thats all
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz 3rd edition I think that is?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz "Chin keyboard"?
 
Amazon does right by their support, the build quality is solid, and the purchase/download process is awesome.
@FAE Mine is second.
 
1:38 AM
@AshleyNunn Indeed I do! I enjoy my Paperwhite. A lot of reviews mentioned some screen discoloration near the bottom, but... It's really a non-issue for me. Alls it is is the area where the lights meet, and it's hardly noticeable. The "time left to read" feature is pretty nifty, too.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah okay. I know they stopped the physical keyboard after 3rd, and that's what Jochem has. I have a 4th edition, no touchscreen.
 
I have a Kindle 4 (non-touchscreen version, the rev before the Paperwhites came out). It was $100 and it's awesome.
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Also if you ever listen to audiobooks, the Whispersync feature Amazon uses is pretty good I hear (I'm not much of an audiobook person so I don't use it).
 
The KB is like a big jay leno chin on the face of the device.
 
1:39 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I love that book! :3
 
user20683
I work for B&N, I recuse myself from any discussion of e-readers.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh yeah, I have one of those. Didn't know that was called "chin keyboard" thought.
 
user15026
Alright, going to call Kobo support and try not to cry
 
FAE
@Brant Yeah I have the same.
 
@WorldEngineer Nook's a crook!
 
1:40 AM
 
@WorldEngineer lol no more nook hardware
 
Oh wait... wrong room.
 
@Brant Have you ever seen the Je Shirt?
 
@Brant Every time I see that face, I just think...
 
@Brant Have you ever seen the Je Shirt?
 
1:41 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I've heard about it on some podcast but I don't remember where.
 
@Brant On The Best Show possibly? I know hw talked about it on there a lot.
 
FAE
@fbueckert Nuked.
 
"This post has been deleted" awwww, yeah.
 
And about his (Jason Woliner's) terrible, terrible business decisions.
 
Hmm, it wasn't that.
 
1:42 AM
It is the most inspired thing ever.
 
@fbueckert Why on earth do people sign up just do that kind of thing?
 
user20683
@Yawus I see that and raise you the mountain king
 
@Yawus I wish I knew.
 
@Yawus He wasn't signed up, just a drive-by internet tough guy who typed into a textbox
 
@Brant Also, if you are of the Podcast listening persuasion, it is now obligatory that I harass you to listen to Night Vale, as I have already harassed most of this chat to do so.
 
1:43 AM
(SE doesn't require you to register to ask+answer)
 
@fbueckert I sorta don't. I fear that the knowledge would drive what little faith I have in humanity away entirely.
 
user20683
 
user20683
That folks, is Ashley Nunn's kid brother raging.
 
GODDAMNIT YOU GARBAGE HOTEL INTERNET, DOWNLOAD THE STUPID EMAIL FULL OF RECEIPTS SO I CAN GO GET DINNER. :(
 
user20683
her rage is even more terrifying
 
1:44 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Okay, subscribed.
 
@Brant Start from the first episode and play catch up.
there is something of a narrative, and there aren't too many of them.
(Total of ~13 hours of catchup.)
 
user15026
I am sorry about the rage, I am just so upset
 
I'm something like 30-40 generations in by this point. My poor, poor, family tree.
 
@AshleyNunn It's okay, the only reason I chat in here is when I want to complain about something.
 
user15026
This is the 6th reader from Kobo of some variety that has died on me
 
1:46 AM
@AshleyNunn Yeah, I am not sure why you stick with them given the series of misfortunes.
 
DRM?
 
user15026
So I am kinda....a vibrating anger squid
2
 
@Brant Kobo is not tied into one of the major booksellers, so DRM is a pretty poor reason.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I have no idea. At first it was because you couldn't get Kindles here and SOny was too much money
 
Oh. Well, it was just a guess.
I gotta say one thing about owning a Kindle, though: Having a direct connection between my wallet and Jeff Bezos's bank account is dangerous.
For me.
And my account balance.
 
user20683
1:48 AM
Kobo was once tied to Borders
 
Because I buy books.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, Kobo uses Adobe DRM, so I don't really care, I dont really share my books or anything. I mean the library lover and lover of open info in me hates it
 
user20683
I can say nothing more on the subject
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer Rakuten owns them now
 
user20683
@AshleyNunn
 
user20683
1:48 AM
 
user20683
Like this?
 
user15026
@Brant Yep thats my problem too :P
 
@AshleyNunn It's not the "hey buddy, borrow this cool book and check it out" factor that bothers me about DRMed ebooks -- I mean, every ebook is available on The Internets somewhere -- It's the fact that all my purchases evaporate if I have the nerve to switch to a competing platform.
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer <3 cuttlefish
 
But that said, blah blah Kindle blah blah convenience blah blah so much better than paper
 
user15026
1:49 AM
@Brant Yeah, thats why I asked about the epub conversion, because holy balls losing the bajillions of books I have bought would suck
 
user20683
@Brant Nook is epub by default but you've still got to contend with the publisher's DRM
 
user20683
we're the Sony of the e-readers.
 
Dementia is great.
 
user20683
;)
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer Sony has their own reader ;)
 
FAE
1:50 AM
@Brant Can still de-DRM your .mobi files.
 
@AshleyNunn calibre can take care of that for you, if you can get over the UI
 
user20683
@AshleyNunn I mean from a DRM standpoint
 
user15026
@Brant As long as it works, I am not picky
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer Fair enough
 
1:52 AM
@AshleyNunn guess what job I applied to yesterday? I think you will find it entertaining
 
hbdjhasvdusvduvasduhvasd this hotel has the worst fucking internet oh my fucking god
I JUST WANT TO GET MY EXPENSE REPORT IN ON DEADLINE.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz call and give them shit.
you are on BUSINESS
 
user15026
@spugsley Do tell :)
 
@AshleyNunn lol a Literary Consulting Firm
 
@spugsley They won't/can't do shit
 
1:53 AM

user15026
Kobo has the worst hold music
 
1:54 AM
YES YES YES ALL FILES UPLOADED, SUBMITTING REPORT HOOORAAAAAY
 
Oh, wait… :tradingcard: is what I type in chat? I thought it was a placeholder string or something.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz yay
 
FAE
@Brant Yeah, it's an emote.
 
@AshleyNunn don't be nice to them. They don't deserve your pretty lady face or your sad lady tears
 
user15026
@spugsley They better replace it and they better like ship it to me ASAP
 
user15026
1:56 AM
because this is ridiculous
 
And now I am off to the Winking Lizard for dinner and intoxication.
 
@Brant same

FAE
@AshleyNunn ...lol
 
user15026
1:58 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz That is an amazing place name
 
@AshleyNunn Appropriate response: "I have quite the long file because you guys produce quite the shoddy product."
 
user15026
And I am on hold again! Yay!
 
@AshleyNunn ....are they serious? Do they even know what customer service is?
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I said something to that effect
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I second this
 
1:59 AM
@Sterno I tried out vertigo just to see how it was. It was one of my best runs so far.
