How someone can ask so many questions and still not understand how the site works is beyond me?
 
Talking about the devil?
 
@Blem Question mark?
 
@FEichinger Fixed?
 
@Blem Good job?
 
@FEichinger All day?
 
6:01 PM
@Fluttershy Of course?

@Batophobia STAHP? Don't break it?
 
¿@Batophobia?
 
@Seven It is stupid and it is bullshit. Why stop using the code tag just because of mabye 0.000001% of all internet users. I think anyone using such software can make an excemption for arqade that the backticks are not read out loud. Or ignore them. but while you are at it, you can delete the minecraft tag too, because I am offended by it. Same thing. — NoneOfYourBusiness 24 mins ago

Oh SR3.
 
@FAE I'm going to have to remove that so I can stop changing back to Google translate?
 
FAE
@Batophobia I will take that as a no!
 
@FAE People have pressing questions about manapults.
 
user15026
@FAE I wrote a thing about me in Dutch! I am pretty sure it is terrible. :(
 
user15026
Also the school thing for recording my audio is broken :(
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I can proofread if you want
just not right now cuz I gotta eat dinner
 
6:13 PM
@AshleyNunn Or possibly the greatest Lorem Ipsum I've ever read!
 
@FAE Prijslijst gefeliceteerd betalen.
 
user15026
@FAE It's okay, I am pretty sure all the words are in the right order. :)
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Mind the bijzinnen!
 
user15026
@FAE Yeah, I hope I didn't screw those up, but it is still pretty simple sentences so I think I am okay

Woo!
@FEichinger Uuuugh.

6:19 PM
@FAE Yep, that's what I thought, too.
 
@FAE I thought he was joking until his latest comment.
 
user15026
@FAE not entirely true, there are cases of this totally being a thing that happens
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I know, hence my rage.
 
I prefer the bold anyway
 
user15026
I am now preparing my trebuchet because I am a vibrating anger squid
 
6:20 PM
I wonder if SE will implement comment downvoting if I give them five Steam dollars.
 
FAE
Ugh, accessibility issues are really important to me and this just seriously pissed me off and I have absolutely nothing nice to say right now so I'm going to go eat dinner. The fact that the comment has an upvote is also upsetting.
 
@FAE Hey
 
user15026
@FAE hugs I am right there with you, but it is lunch instead.
 
Have a better day :D
 
@AshleyNunn I don't think I have the vibrating anger squid... throws pokeball

@AshleyNunn hugs back
@Batophobia Ha, thanks, cute things always help. I'm allergic to cats though. >_>

@Seven You mistake the markup language of arqade for html. — NoneOfYourBusiness 5 mins ago
facedesk
You gotta be kidding me.
I want to say "Just shut up if you have no idea what you're talking about" so freaking much right now.
 
Game looks entirely boring, saw some video futage of it and all your guys do is stand there like dull chess peices. I like action and pazzaz in my games not slow dullness. Also looks like a pain in the ♥♥♥ to micro manage all those characters inventroy. Wish it was real time and had destructable environments and more/better blood gore. Also the cartoon graphics are ugly. No wonder this game can't even get an 80 on metacritic. Sorry I wont be buying this or playing it.
 
@FEichinger what is this?
 
Thanks for starting a thread on Steam to say that, Random Internet Guy!

Q: If I leave a companion in F:NV can I get him back later?

badpI've been running with Boone for a while and, while he's a good marksman, he's kind of a nuisance. The Legion are the only group I'm in bad blood with and he just likes to run into them headfirst, often throwing all attempts to a stealth approach to the dirt. If I let a companion go for somebody...

Q: what happens if I don't fight Nybeth in chapter one?

SMTFwhat happens if I don't fight Nybeth in chapter one? Are there any implications if I opt not to fight him in chapter one? What about if I do and defeat him? Thanks.

 
You guys realize he's just trolling you, right?
 
6:42 PM
@fbueckert He's no Reggie Jackman.
 
@fbueckert Judging from the past, I am fairly certain he does believe what he says.
 
(unless he is Reggie Jackman)
 
@fbueckert I arrived here like 30 seconds ago and have no idea what is happening
 
@Sterno He's our very own Reggie Jackman!
 
Reggie Jackman is a super leveled up version of him.
 
6:43 PM
Or Evan Carroll, except not as smart
 
great start
"Veronica Head crippled"
 
@badp lol
 
NOYB = regular troll, Reggie Jackman = end boss troll
 
Oooh, my rep values on AU and Arqade consist of the same digits right now, wheee.
And I've been downvoted randomly ... Nice.
 
@Lazers My word. Nick is alive.
 
6:53 PM
Why is it a whole discussion? The whole discussion should be "Don't use code tags for non-code things dumbass" "Okay"
 
@BenBrocka Because NOYB was smartassing and badp misunderstood the question a bit.
 
 
The question's text makes it sound much more complicated too
 
is the review tab disabled when you are waiting for someone to review your edit?
 
@2____ Shouldn't be. What do you mean by "disabled"?
 
6:56 PM
nevermind I figured it out
 
We shifted the review privilege to 500 now.
 
@badp You know what's delicious about those dirty reps? I lost rep for answering that! Y_Y
@GraceNote Hrmph.
 
@GraceNote ;_;
what happens if your edit is rejected?
how are you notified?
 
@Sterno B-but what about m-me?
 
@2____ You aren't notified at all. You can see it in your activity tab on the profile, though.
 
7:00 PM
oh
 
@Retrosaur I need context. Are you asking where you fall on the trolling scale? I'm not sure. I don't think I've run into you personally much. I just hear people complain a lot. :)
@Retrosaur But if I had to pick, I'd say you're a DinoTroll.
 
@Sterno yey <3
 
what are the different levels of troll?
 
@2____ You should ask on Opinions.SE.

@Coronus you mean yahoo answers?

@Jin ♥
 
7:04 PM
@FEichinger What exactly is markup? I never really understood that
 
It is hard to stare over the internet
 
@Retrosaur In context, this probably explains it best.
 
@FEichinger Thanks.
Wait, where's this Opinion.SE question? I'd love to see this
 
Pinned message.
 
@FEichinger Did the question get deleted? Or is it still up? It's just screenies in your message
 
7:08 PM
I see the stars are staying up
 
@Retrosaur Obviously it was since deleted. Given that the comments began to consist mostly of insults and the question itself was facepalmworthy to no end.
 
Oprah is giving me a seizure.

@2____ Make it stop!
 
@Coronus I'm sorry, what did you say?
 
Jin
 
@Jin mmmhhh waffles, do you get a lot of waffles at work?
 
Jin
@Blem no... i work from home.
i get cigs 'n beer here.
 
@Jin You don't get waffles at home?
 
Jin
@Coronus my wife doesn't make waffles :(
she makes me good ramen though
 
@Jin That's alright then.
Mmm now I want ramen.
 
Jin

A: How to go from instant ramen to gourmet meal?

JinI use thin chopped bacon slices(uncooked) as a flavoring agent. Also drop 1-2 eggs in there and stir, this adds texture. I normally stir-fry some chopped steak on the side and dump in the ramen afterwards. I don't use the seasoning pack that comes with the ramen. For flavoring, I use ponzu sauc...

 
@Jin your wife is hot and makes good food, lucky you
 
Jin
7:19 PM
seriously, ramen is soo good to make, especially if you're in college and don't have much $$$
doesn't take too much to make it uber
@Blem you've seen my wife?
 
@Jin isn't this your wife? instagram.com/p/ZOIfytNPBi
 
Jin
yes.
i just realized most of my instagram photos are of food..
 
@Jin Isn't instagram for selfies and food?

Q: How does a planet become depleted and how do I recover it?

DrakkatI recently conquered an enemy's star system. I noticed that a few planets were "depleted". How does a planet become depleted? Since only planets from conquered systems seem to be depleted, does it have something to do with the invasion? Or with the enemy, whose planets I conquered, being Craver...

Q: Do defense drones shoot down missiles before or after a dodge check?

DyckerDefense drones take out incoming missiles (and lasers if you have a defense drone II). Do they shoot down the projectiles before or after the game does a dodge check on your ships evasion?

 
does anyone use it?
 
It's caught on.
 
Jin
@Blem yes.
 
I always assumed Jin's wife was an anthropomorphic piece of bacon
 
Jin
7:25 PM
@BenBrocka she becomes a piece of bacon at night, and regens in the morning in her human form.
@BenBrocka WAIT, ARE YOU CALLING MY WIFE FAT?

@Blem Why would you be getting fired on Monday?
Despite Monday being a terrible day of the week
 
my team manager wants a meeting with me because i show up a bit late when not feeling good
 
7:40 PM
If he wanted to fire you, wouldn't he just do that?
 
guess so, and it is not like i dont put in my 40h a week
 
Jin
@Blem if he was going to fire you, he'd do it on a Friday...
 
he wasnt at work today
It is my first full time job, so dont have much experience with getting fired

what is the deal with Avicii and Europe? In the US he is fairly popular, but whenever I look at the Euro Charts he is also within the top 40.
 
who?
 
@badp Bacon!
 
7:55 PM
Tim Bergling (born 8 September 1989), known professionally as Avicii (pronounced ), is a Swedish DJ, remixer, and record producer. Avicii ranked No. 6 on the Top 100 DJs list by DJ Magazine in 2011, and ranked higher in 2012, coming at No. 3 on the Top 100 DJs list by the publication in 2013. Early life Tim Bergling was born on 8 September 1989 in Stockholm, Sweden. He began remixing and producing tracks in his own bedroom at the age of 18. His friends convinced him to put his work on various music blogs online, which led to him gaining a huge following and led to support from DJ and...

@2____ INCREASED CLARITY

@Wipqozn Or accidental side effects.
Hanlon's razor is an eponymous adage that allows the elimination of unlikely explanations for a phenomenon. It reads: ' This particular form is attributed to a Robert J. Hanlon. However, earlier utterances that convey the same basic idea are known. Origins The adage was popularized in this form and under this name by the Jargon File, a glossary of computer programmer slang. In 1990, it appeared in the Jargon File described as a "murphyism" parallel to Occam's Razor". The name was inspired by Occam's razor.

what does "rebate" even mean?
 
> a return of part of the original payment for some service or merchandise; partial refund.
 
user20683
it's a common way of getting people to buy things since it's like 20% of people who actually mail them in
 
8:43 PM
Basically it's a price and advertising gimmick.
 
You pay full price, and get this slip of paper that you may or may not remember to mail in for $5 within X days after purchase (with proof).

RetrosaurThe item attribute (below Speed, Acceleration, Handling, etc.) 'Items' has been bugging me a bit when I am picking my vehicle.

Ah, so basically I can take a greyhound to union station at some point and go from there. I am free most evenings (tuesdays/Wednesday/friday) so I am sure something will work. Ping me on Steam later (or I will ping you) when you know more and we can go from there?

Getting figments is a bit tedious, but I'm going to skip out on 100% those for right now and focus on just finishing the game. I'll leave a safe before the point of no return.

@Fluttershy Eh, I hear middling reports on that one.
It's a pretty long slog through the main campaign too.
 
10:19 PM
@AshleyNunn looks like I'm going to be staying over near the airport. But no idea what that means in terms of access to the rest of the city; Toronto's layout is mysterious and strange to me.

@LessPop_MoreFizz YYZ?
 
@FAE yeah
 
user15026
@LessPop I don't know the city all that well but near the airport is likely pretty easy to Greyhound or something
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz it's about 25-40 minutes from downtown proper, depending on traffic and which way you go.
You'll probably be on the Gardiner Expressway a lot, which goes along the lake
Lots of one way streets in Toronto, it can be a bit of a pain.
Mind the trams.

@fbueckert Whatcha working on now? Please tell me no Sharepoint.
 
10:35 PM
@Coronus Sharepoint.
 
@fbueckert The little metal tab for my Ethernet port didn't go in like it was supposed to. Everything else did though.
 
user20683
@fbueckert we have a Sharepoint.SE
 
@Fluttershy Metal...tab? On the ethernet cable?
 
@Fluttershy The one on the plate?
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn Okies, just wanted to make sure you knew that, IIRC, it's kind of split, so picking people up may require walking across the street.
 
10:37 PM
@Coronus Yus.
 
@Fluttershy Oh, so just the faceplate?
 
@fbueckert The tab on the shielding that's suppose to make contact with the port so it functions isn't actually making contact.

@FAE I haven't been there often, but I am sure I will be okay. I feel weirdly less anxious in Toronto than many other unfamiliar cities.

@AshleyNunn There's no pedestrian bridge or anything, so you just kinda gotta go across. You won't be carrying suitcases though, so I imagine it'll be easier for you!
