@ElfSlice We did earlier too, Acrid + Huntress
 
Nice.
Huntress again for me.
Was trying to get the miner
He wasn't there. =[
 
ok done
now give me all the upvotes
 
FAE
@ElfSlice Same :(
 
I answered a Minecraft question
This question appears to be off-topic because it is about server management not directly related to gaming — Robotnik 4 mins ago
 
@kalina it is possible to connect your terminal I/O to the server, but I don't know how to do it offhand, and might not be possible on Windows. Editing the file and restarting is easier.
 
11:04 PM
11 Drones.
Including one I had never seen before with a flamethrower.
 
FAE
@ElfSlice lol nice, my max is 9
@ElfSlice I haven't had that one yet
 
Add more detailed description (this time I found the Meta discussion on tag wikis for games, sorry about the previous suggested edits)
 
Providence killed almost all of them. =[
 
Also,@kalina, what do you have against nano? It's the easiest of the three, as far as I'm concerned.
 
11:06 PM
I don't
if I had put nano or pico in there first, all of the vi/vim/emacs/other users would have said EXACTLY THE SAME THING you just said
 
vi is not easy
 
vi is perfectly easy
once you get past needing to tell it you want to input something
 
Are you a vi girl? Wouldn't have guessed it.
 
I loathe *nix with a passion
if I have to edit something on such a system though, I will use vi
 
I enjoy the simplicity of nano. Except for cut and paste.
 
11:10 PM
I like being able to delete multiple lines at once
 
I can do that to in nano. You cut the entire line.
 
oh damn, I'm exactly 1k rep behind @badp
 
@kalina not anymore!
 
wooo
 
Ooh, my nexus 5 has shipped!
 
11:14 PM
@MBraedley Nice!
 
ooOOOo
oh that reminds me
picks up tablet
 
breaks tablet?
 
oh goodie
nothing is actually wrong with it
it just used up more battery in 12 hours than it did in 3 days for some strange reason
 
oh wow this is something else

Q: What would happen if a Pokemon used Me First on a target that was going to use Me First?

user66341If that happened, would the Pokemon who used Me First just keep using Me First or would it just say that the move failed?

 
11:15 PM
That's a table of context
with page numbers
in an HTML document
on the internet
 
yes it is
 
@badp don't read Italian (presumably), ignoring
 
@badp In an iframe too I think
 
@MBraedley That's why I explained what it is
@RedRiderX yes
 
Such copypasta
 
11:18 PM
oh dear the privacy policy starts brilliantly
Essentially it reads, "For some products we may share your data with some companies. We will not share your data otherwise."
In other words, there exist companies Zenimax won't give your data to. Maybe.
That's an awesome privacy policy!
 
At least they're clear about it.
 
that's fine
use a fake name and address

Q: Minecraft 1.7.2 mods not working properly

user66342I recently(yes, late to the party) updated to 1.7.4 on minecraft. Most of the mods I use, however, have not yet updated to that version, so I downgraded to 1.7.2 in order to use them. When I did, I ran into the same issue posted here. How to install mods for the new Minecraft 1.6.1+ launcher I ...

 
Rainbow Dash, 1 House, On the Hill, Equestria
should have probably be 1 Cloud, In the Sky, Ponyville
but c'est la vie
 
@kalina Of course you agreed not to do that in the main EULA about six times, and they tell you about seven times they'll delete your account and ban you forever if they so much as suspect you've lied
 
11:23 PM
they're going to delete my account and ban me from a 2 day beta test?
 
See Stack Exchange shuld have terms like this
 
do you realise where that will register on my care-o-meter?
 
I look at your account, decide you lied one of the fields on your account and delete you forever
 
that's right, it won't
@badp I chose not to populate any field I would usually lie in, with the exception of email address since... gravatar
 
@kalina Ah, but they use this EULA for all of their games. That's the part where this exercise scales.
 
11:24 PM
@badp "All of their games"
 
@kalina Again, SE fails in marking all fields as required
 
because I play any crap Bethesda release
if anything
it would be more of a punishment to force me to play RAGE
 
if I were to buy Skyrim on Steam, I'd only find out about this stuff after purchase
 
@kalina but there's a badge for filling everything in...

Q: Will Wii Fit U support two balance boards simultaneously?

JonI have Wii Fit Plus, which I know did not support use of multiple balance boards simultaneously. I've been looking for information on whether Wii Fit U would support multiple balance boards, but all the information I'm finding online goes is related to the original Wii Fit/Plus... Is there any...

 
11:25 PM
@MBraedley I filled it in, got the badge, and unfilled it
 
Game comes out tomorrow; close, or just let it go?
 
@Frank What did you do with the real Frank you imposter!
 
@kalina I could just VTC and move on, but I figure a single day isn't going to make much difference.
Especially as it's already Jan. 10 in some places.
 
it wasn't that long ago that we (I didn't take part) VTC'd a question asked about a game by Sean (an American) that was available in Europe
because he was an American

11:28 PM
Granted, we know he personally doesn't have it, but someone who does could answer his question.
@kalina Those where the epitome of not a problem he was facing.

Q: BioShock Infinite closures on release day

SeanI asked a series of questions on BioShock Infinite very recently (within the last hour), all of which were pummel-closed citing this and that. I understand that it is not yet midnight in America, but it is still "release day" elsewhere in the world. Are these closures not inconsistent with the me...

 
That was question camping, pure and simple.
 
it's the exact same thing
 
@kalina Nope.
 
Yep
 
11:30 PM
Maybe?
 
YEP
personally, I wouldn't close it
others on the site might disagree if they were here
 
Nope, I disagree. Those Bioshock questions were asked in bad faith.
 
and by the time they are, the game will be released
you're not sean, you don't know that
you can make a guess/assumption
A WILD @LESSPOP_MOREFIZZ APPEARS
HALF THE CHANNEL IMMEDIATELY LEAVES
<3
 
The way they were worded made it obvious he wasn't playing the game.
 
LEGAL DOCUMENT 5/6 HERE WE COME
 
11:33 PM
@Frank This new one is worded in a future tense
(Will not Does)
 
There is less bureaucracy involved in getting a fucking loan.
 
@badp +1
Hence I didn't read them
 
@kalina And if we decided to keep it, we can reword it so it's, "Does it"
 
Then again, I wouldn't read them if it were a loan, either
@Frank that doesn't change the fact it is the same thing

@Frank This new one is worded in a future tense
 
Since we're not actually making headway on this, I'm out. I don't care that much about it.
 
Me either
 
Plus @Frank is obviously right about sean and has won the conversation.
 
11:37 PM
no

you're not sean, you don't know that
stop assuming the worst about people
 
@badp yeah, because they will milk you out very quickly...
(I needed 3 hours opening a saving account, a loan was given in 20 minutes)
 
Ah a favourite of mine
Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, all information relating to the Beta Trial, Your selection as a Beta Trial participant, ...
This is usually when I stop giving a fuck
 
@badp what is this full line?
 
What now? If I were to agree to these shitty terms, would I have to retroactively go back and delete all I've said about this?
 
basically what you're saying is
I broke the NDA before reading the NDA
which I didn't read
 
11:41 PM
@kalina essentially! They surrendered this information to me before I signed any NDA. It's just disgraceful of them to try and take it back
 
but... I broke the NDA at the point where I received the email, which is before I created my account
because the first thing I did was "ooh I have a beta invite for ESO"
 
I'm pretty sure literally everyone who got one did that
 
If it were an NDA for something truly privileged that I cared about I would abide by it
but no games company is going to enforce some crap like that on me
 
The only real part of it they can police is YouTube and maybe twitch
 
11:52 PM
I'm sure dcma take downs is exactly the hype they want
 
Meanwhile
ATTENTION YOUTUBERS: We grant you full permission to post videos of our games, and to monetize said videos. Because we love you.
 
I was going to play mass effect 3 like 6 hours ago
Sigh...
How I get distracted
 
It's impressive, really
 
@kalina NOBODY LIKES ME EVERYBODY HATES ME GUESS I'LL EAT WORMS.
 
That's not true
 
11:59 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Only if the worms have eaten other worms themselves
