@AshleyNunn If you're wondering about terminals, those are usually fixed depending on the airline.
Like domestic Continental flights are always at Terminal C in Bush (IAH).
 
user15026
@Yuuki Yes! I figured the gate would be assigned later, but I want to know the terminal because they're not exactly close together and i don't want to make my parents pay twice for parking
 
Oh wait, they're called United right now, huh...
 
user15026
(also, he is coming from America to Canada, if that is also a thing that is needed)
 
@AshleyNunn Judging by a quick search, it'd be Terminal 3.
 
user15026
@Yuuki now, why couldn't I find that... :P
 
12:02 AM
@AshleyNunn I am well-trained in Google Fu.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Ah, I tried to make the websites tell me things instead of poking google.
 
user15026
One thing I have learned is always poke google.
 
Also, that might be departures not arrivals.
 
user15026
@Yuuki I nkow I departed from t3 when I went to NYC
 
user15026
but I was so out of it I have no idea where I came in (I was mostly concentrating on being upright and finding th person that would take me home)
 
12:03 AM
Yeah, delta flies into and out of terminal 3
 
user15026
and also not tossing my cookies
 
user15026
(I don't fly well)
 
Speaking of sauce, I picked up some Bulldog sauce at the Japanese market.
Couldn't find any ume though, sadly.
 
user15026
@Yuuki sad
 
12:06 AM
There's apparently a restaurant that specializes in green plums though.
I'll check it out tomorrow.
 
Baseball is the best.
@Ashleynunn why would your parents pay for parking for an airport pickup?

Q: Does Not Stop Loading External Servers

AimeeWhenever I go on a external server, it does not stop loading. I want to go on it and I know there is nothing wrong with my wifi. I know it is the right server because it worked when I went on about 2-3 hours ago. Question: Why does it keep loading when I try to go on Minecraft Pocket Edition ext...

 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Because how else can we leave the car alone?
 
@AshleyNunn I think @LessPop_MoreFizz was wondering why you aren't doing a drive-thru pick-up.
 
user15026
(Trust me the other option is dump me out and wait somewhere, and no one, least of all me, wants to trust me to not get lost ESPECIALLY when I will be 100% flail because MY BOYFRIEND WILL BE HERE)
 
12:17 AM
@TrentHawkins erm, nooooo. I think that's an issue w. the pattern...I was wondering about that myself
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz Because I have no idea where I'm going.
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer That and my mom would lose her mind "where is he are we in the right place do you see him has he landed where is he"
 
@WorldEngineer I would hope that you at least know that you're going to Canada.
Barring that, North America.
 
user20683
@Yuuki I can't be certain of that until I land.
 
So Shadow Strike Chain is my new favorite thing. cc @peoplewhoplaythisgame
 
12:20 AM
Hooever:
 
had to put on the heat for the first time this autumn just now :(
booooo
 
@spugsley You? Put on the heat?
 
@WorldEngineer you follow the signs to the baggage claim, and then, from there, to the pickup curb. Then @Ashleynunn drives in circles at the airport until you are outside waiting for her. This is how most airport pick-ups happen.
 
@spugsley Really. You're hot enough as is.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz hahahahah you think I would drive myself to Pearson hahahahahhaa
 
user20683
12:23 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz or she waits at the arrival gate, like a normal person.
 
@ashleynunn no, but I assumed you'd be in the circling car.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz this is her parents we are talking about
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah, yes. But I as of yet am not brave enough for hte 401
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz That hasn't been the case with any of my airport pick-ups (either being the one picking up or the one being picked up).
 
user20683
I'd rather meet them when I have space to run away
 
user20683
12:25 AM
:P
 
@WorldEngineer hate to break it to you, but what I described is the 'normal person' procedure. Normally, pickups aren't allowed in to go wait at the arrival gate.
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer They're nice I swear
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz No, but there is a place in the airport where they can wait for hte people
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well no, but I'd usually wait at the terminal gate or the baggage claim.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz well whichever chunk of Hartsfield we waited at
 
user15026
12:25 AM
Because that is what @ToxicFrog did for me
 
user15026
and collected my wobbling needing to die self
 
@AshleyNunn Is your boyfriend meeting your parents?
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness Yeah, because they're the ones doing the driving to the airport because aaaa big scary roads :P
 
user15026
(I do want to learn to do that drive but driving to get @WorldEngineer for the first time ever strikes me as a bad time to learn)
 
@AshleyNunn :)
@AshleyNunn lol, yeah...might scare him
Dangit.
 
user15026
12:28 AM
@RPiAwesomeness laugh just a bit
 
Just lvld up a person when I'm trying to save more monies :P
 
Clicker heroes got a 0.14 update

@RPiAwesomeness hardly
 
@Chippies cc me... O.O first. time. evar.
 
user20683
I've survived the 101
 
user20683
12:30 AM
and I live in Atlanta
 
@WorldEngineer 101?
lol, I see
 
I drive on Houston highways.
 
user15026
@WorldEngineer I would be more worried about me panicking than you :P
 
@RPiAwesomeness I usually don't cc people unless I think it's relevant and well, since you're a clicker hero now... :P
 
I think the only more terrifying thing would be to head to New York City.
I really hope I find my 3DS before the year's up.
Or I might end up getting the NN3DS.
Or whatever they call it.
 
user15026
12:34 AM
@Yuuki I will likely get it when it hits NA....whenever that will be
 
@AshleyNunn I'm just worried about my Fire Emblem DLC.
I didn't have a problem with it when I switched from my 3DS to my 3DS XL. I just had to redownload it.
 
user15026
If you find the system and do a transfer, it pops to the new one
 
user15026
I suspect it will be the same for this new thing
 
@AshleyNunn The problem is finding the system.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Boo, it's lost? :(
 
12:36 AM
@AshleyNunn I misplaced somewheres.
As long as I register my (possible) NN3DS under my Nintendo ID, I shouldn't worry about having to re-purchase DLC, do I?
 
user15026
@Yuuki Hopefully it is in your house
 
If I do, I probably wouldn't bother.
 
user15026
@Yuuki I have no idea
 
Looking at the Japanese pricing, I'm once again glad I mostly play handhelds rather than consoles these days.
~$500 for a gaming system is something I really don't want to get into ever again.

Q: My minecraft forge keeps crashing, please help!

I deleted everything to do with what I had just downloaded, and it still gives me this. Help! ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Ooh. Shiny. Time: 10/5/14 5:31 PM Desc...

 
12:51 AM
@Yuuki I go there every day.
 
Anybody know if the NN3DS is region-locked?
 
user15026
@Yuuki Not really much has been announced yet
 
user15026
Heck we dont even know when we are getting it
 
@AshleyNunn Ugh... It seems like it will be.
@AshleyNunn Australia's getting it next month apparently.
 
user15026
@Yuuki AFAIK they've said "sometime in 2015" for NA
 
user15026
12:52 AM
So I would not hold your breath
 
@AshleyNunn I was just hoping I could get the Japanese one with the Monster Hunter branding.
And then region-locking...

This is not OK
 
@OrigamiRobot I really don't appreciate people dressing their pets up.
Not sure exactly sure why, but I've never seen it as cute or funny.
It just looks odd.
 
@AshleyNunn omg that writer bundle was SO helpful. THANK YOU

@spugsley No problem, figured someone could likely use it :)

@Frank Lots of bits :)
 
@AshleyNunn And that's all for a single arm. :P
And only one color I was painting.
 
user15026
O.o
 
2:23 AM
THAT is all the bits.
 
@OrigamiRobot Hahahahaha
 
user15026
@Frank So many bits
 
@AshleyNunn Only took me about a month to get them all off the runners and sand 'em down.
 
user15026
@Frank Do you know how many bits there are?
 
@AshleyNunn I didn't count, so no, sorry.
I would guesstimate somewhere in the vicinity of five hundred on up.
 
user15026
2:28 AM
That is a large number of bits. I wasn't sure if they said on the box, like a puzzle does :P
 
@AshleyNunn I wish it did.
The box, though, is super big.
 
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA.
 
God, I really need to scan for captains more often. I can't count the number of times I've been like "I'm going to stab this dude" and he's just like "By the way I'm a captain"

In other news, this baseball game.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Which? Angels/Royals? (Picking the most interesting one to me at first glance)
 
@AshleyNunn Yes.
It has been a great game.
Royals gonna sweep. I am fully on board with that at this point. Bandwagon hooooooo.
 
user15026
I've been kinda paying attention with needing to grade 1st half and props
 
Royals Orioles is going to be such a fun series.
Which is good, because Cards/Giants is going to be insufferable.
(Though there is still some slim hope for Nats/Dodgers or Giants/Dodgers.)

Q: What does "Get a total of 5 hits in StreetSmash" mean?

Kurt WagnerIn Super Smash Bros for 3DS there's a "Get a total of 5 hits in StreetSmash" challenge. However, I can't figure out what is needed to complete it. What does it mean? I've tried killing 12 opponents which would definitely be 5+ hits, and hitting the enemy puck by moving into them 4 times and then...

 
3:49 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz :(
 
If @Fluttershy likes the Cardinals, I am fine with hating them.
 
@OrigamiRobot I like lots of stuff! You gonna hate those too?
 
Possibly
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Were people not expecting the Royals to sweep/win? (Guessing based on workstuff)

@Arperum Morning
 
8:23 AM
@5pike My internal clock is giving "it's the middle of the night, go to bed" signals.
 
@Arperum What time is it actually?
 
I might have had a little bit a case of "not enough sleep". As in: yesterday it was 2AM, day before it was 8AM, and friday night it was 6AM.
@fredley It's 10:30AM, nearly anyway.
 
@Arperum Regular, uninterrupted sleep is amazing. I highly recommend it.
I used have forgotten what not feeling tired actually felt like
 
@fredley Butbutbut. Going out, and Shadow of Mordor (blame half of the people in here) and concert.
 
@Arperum Your body still requires the same amount of sleep. Better to go to bed at a reasonable hour and play SoM in the morning.
 
8:29 AM
@fredley I kinda prefer living at night, but work doesn't agree.
 
@Arperum I know what you mean
 
(I'm aware that I should sleep more, it's on my todo list)
 
@Arperum right under "play more"
 
The thing is that I lost the begin and end of said todo list. I need to increase sleeps priority on the list I think.
 
@Arperum It's not necessarily just sleeping more, it's sleeping regularly as well. As you said, it's no good having had 10 hours sleep if your body clock thinks it's 2AM.
 
8:31 AM
@5pike And also under the send mails so windows get done, ask two more people to come have a look at the roof so I have more prices.
@fredley I am just suffering from a chronic case of lack of sleep.
And not because I can't sleep, but because I have way too much to do.
 
@Arperum That way too much to do includes playing hours of vidya games?
 
@Frank What's the use of digging up your car if you can't drive it because of snow that is piled higher everywhere?
@fredley Partly. I have a house that needs a shitton of renovating, and live alone, so everything is on me to get it done.
 
@Arperum Yeah, renovating a house is a shit-ton of work.
 
@Arperum Do you have a project plan? It helps when you have a shit-ton of work to make a plan. Being able to track progress is very very useful
 
plus social life. plus work. plus games. plus making food. plus dishing. plus broken washing machine x2. plus more stuff.
 
8:39 AM
@fredley I'd need that for my game backlog.
 
@fredley I should probably do something like that.
 
@Arperum Get yoself a Trello board and put everything that needs doing on your house on it, broken down by room or whatever
 
Oh yea, there is also some website that I need to make.
 
@Arperum Put that on the Trello board
 
@Arperum Get frontpage, copy paste lorem ipsum. Put it in purple comic sans. Done, instant classic.
 
8:42 AM
@KevinvanderVelden Make the background black. Purple on black is all the rage
 
@fredley purple on white is much better though, remember: contrast is bad!
 
@KevinvanderVelden Also add a little marquee text
 
@5pike Depends on your purple
 
Afk, meeting time
 
#3A006C
 
8:45 AM
@KevinvanderVelden That part is done already, it's the custom module shizzles that I need to do.
 
@Arperum Custom modules? Never write custom modules.
 
@fredley It's kind of a specific need though. It's for a farmers market. I might try to sell it to a couple other markets/farmer markets later on.
 
@Arperum Cool
 
Regular sleep schedule? I need to get me one of those...
 
For anyone genuinely struggling with sleep, this is amazing
 
8:54 AM
Today is not that day though.
 
@fredley Yea, it's partly for use of displaying all sellers on the site, and partly for handling the request for the licenses for what seller can sell what(that stuff is regulated internaly).
 
@Arperum Djangooooooooo
Although I'm guessing it's too late for this
 
For me my problem is more that I get stuck in a "reddit, nothing new, chat, nothing new" loop expecting something new for hours.
Because I'm an idiot
 
@Unionhawk Stayfocusd?
@Unionhawk I do this sometimes, it's bad
 
I need something that detects if I've refreshed reddit more than x times in y minutes, or something, and just pops up like "oi, there's nothing new on reddit."
 
9:06 AM
@fredley yea :(
 
I'm currently stuck in "limbo" - Got to many games which I want to play and I can't really get a priority.
 
@Unionhawk That doesn't help either.
 
@Arperum Once you've finished, spend a weekend making it again in Django!
@5pike This is the beginning of the end
 
@fredley But I don't have time :(
 
@Arperum Welcome to the biggest problem you'll have for the entire rest of your life :D
 
9:08 AM
There might be a setting to cut off endless scrolling after x pages too. Or I could stayfocusd the thing after 1. There's an idea...
 
endless scroll worst scroll
 
It's so nice until you realize it's page 74 and 90 minutes have passed
 
@Unionhawk Don't you quickly hit material you've read before?
 
Yes.
Immediately, usually
 
Why keep reading?
 
9:12 AM
I DON'T KNOW
 
So: set stayfocusd to a reasonable time to read all new content, once a day. Read new content in 30 minutes or so once a day. Don't look at sites the rest of the time.
Yes, it's gonna be hard for the first week, but once you've broken the cycle of habit you'll be out for good
At least it's not something chemically addictive!
 
Hi, I'm @Uni, and I'm addicted to mindlessly scrolling through webpages.
2
@fredley technically...
 
@Unionhawk Brain chemicals don't count
 
@fredley Heh. I've had a relapse. It's terrible knowing you are wasting your time and keep doing it anyway.
 
It's the worst. The cognitive dissonance is absurd
 
9:17 AM
 
@Arperum Yeah. Interesting psychology behind that sort of thing. Basically your brain knows it has lots of things to do, and thinking about all those things is not nice. So it distracts itself.
This is why writing things down helps break the cycle. It gets that stuff down on a piece of paper, or a digital analogue thereof, and then the brain knows that it doesn't need to keep thinking about that stuff because it's filed away.
Seriously, write things down.

Literally, the things about outside of class things have been helpful, but beyond that, there's only so much saying "I should manage my time and plan things" can do.
 
Steam is down :(
 
@fredley ... by using a ZWNJ inside the protocol specification?
 
@MartinSojka Is there a ZWNJ in there? Where did it come from?
 
You wrote "htt&#200c;&#200b;p" as the protocol.
 
@MartinSojka I copied the url from Chrome, so Chrome is to blame here
Maybe it's just the next frontier on Google's war against the URL, make them impossible to copy-paste?

I don't think so. This might be related:

Q: Occasionally, the Unicode character sequence U+200C U+200B (ZWNJ ZWSP) is inserted into comments

Lover of StructureIn this comment to a question on TeX.SE ... the number "5000" does not paste as such but instead as 5 0 U+200C U+200B 0 0 The HTML source looks like this: perhaps the easiest would be <code>\edef\tmp{\everypar{\widowpenalty\the\widowpenalty\relax}}\tmp\widowpenalty=-50&zwnj;&#8203;00</code>...

Where is the "launch in offline mode" option? :|
 
9:48 AM
At first I thought that was a typo for steamplay
 
@badp I still have it
Also the mobile app still works
 
So play DRM-free games. :)
 
@fredley That only uses the web API I think.

Q: Is there any way to start Steam in offline mode without logging in first?

AubergineI recently find myself needing to start Steam in offline mode rather frequently (my wife is hogging my account to play Plants Vs.

@5pike Doesn't work. It appears it's still trying to hit the Steam servers to authenticate my password

@MartinSojka 10k rep in chat
 
9:58 AM
Shit. I don't think I can lose 25 rep fast enough ...
 
@MartinSojka Hiding flags would be a good userscript
 
Oh well, I guess I can write a simple custom CSS if it turns out to be annoying enough.
 
@MartinSojka upvotes
 
@MartinSojka welcome!
 
Anybody else going?
 
10:11 AM
crickets
Guess not? =p
 
One would be "Horror is about losing control, games are about gaining control"; what's the other?
 
@MartinSojka The problems the author outlines are "Death Means Relief and Repetition" and "Monster Exposure Makes The Horror Familiar".
 
@Wipqozn So he's missing the point in regards to games then.
 
@MartinSojka Maybe you should actually read the article.
 
10:18 AM
I skimmed through it and maintain that those aren't the hardest problems. After all, they have obvious (if not always practical) solutions.
 
@MartinSojka Flags don't occur frequently enough for it to amount of much of an annoyance.
Plus it doesn't make any sound, so if you don't hve the window open and the flag is handled you'd never even know it was there.
 
10:36 AM
@Wipqozn They make some good points.
 
@5pike Yeah, it's a good read.
 
@Wipqozn Yeah, and they are pretty much right.
 
Interesting points
 
Frictional Games knows their stuff when it comes to horror games.
I should really play through Amnesia t some point. Maybe I'll do that on Halloween.
 
@Wipqozn I really like horror games, but Amnesia lost the horror factor to fast. The first few hours were pretty tense, but after that, it really felt more like a chore than horror.
 
10:43 AM
@5pike Yeah, that talk about that bit in that article.
Mostly in passing through.
Mostly that "this all applies to Amnesia".
SOMA should be interesting though. Souns like they are going for more enemy variety, which is what Amnesia most suffered from. That is, there wasn't enough.
 
@Wipqozn Familiarity kills horror.
 
@5pike Just have no repetition, just play the game through from start to finish. Actually, might as well do away with any player interaction, just have it playing a 2 hour cutscene.
 
@fredley Hahaha...
 
@fredley One thing they suggest (and did in amnesia) is to have different maps layouts and enemy placements for sections. when player dies, the rea will be a bit different. That enemy that killed before might not be there anymore, or may have been moved to a different location in the room. Maybe that key you picked up earlier is in a different spot and that locked door has been moved too.
Not sure how much they did with that, but they said they did some of it.
 
@Wipqozn That's a cool idea. Difficult to do though
 
10:49 AM
@Wipqozn The monsters placement seemed always random.
 
@5pike They are.
 
@Wipqozn Well, that's a really nice thing. Keeps it unpredictable, which adds to the horror.
 
@fredley Yeah, it would be. Part of the reason I think horror games should be shorter. Maybe around 5 hours. IF they are shorter it allows you to spend more time implementing the different map layouts (or setting up an AI which makes them for you). It also helps to avoid the problem of players figuring out how the game works, or becoming too familiar.
 
@Wipqozn I think the reason that slender man was so good is because it was simple enough to be different every time, and short enough not to be repetitive
 
I've never played Slender Man. I might need to try it at some point.
 
10:57 AM
@Wipqozn I did actually. I'd seen enough LPs by then for it to lose the seat-staining level of fear though.
 
wait, which slender man? The eight pages multiplayer one?
I did ply that one.
 
@Wipqozn Multiplayer?
 
Oh, I don't think that was slender man.
 
@Wipqozn Not multiplayer
But 8 pages
 
@fredley Someone implemented it in Garry's Mod.

There's one way to deal with the "monster familiarity" problem which I wish more games would try (and at which Spec Ops: The Line failed so, so badly): Use game conventions and mechanics people are familiar with and turn them around on them. Load up your average FPS, look down and ask yourself: 1. What is it that you don't see? 2. Could it be the Monster?
 
@MartinSojka Yeah. Part of what made slender good is that you're in a forest with tall dark vertical trees, looking for a monster that's tall dark and vertical.
 
Oh my. Naruto will be ending in 5 chapters.
I'm a little surprised. I was expecting them to drag the final fight out for at least 2 years,
 
@Wipqozn still not getting redirected to the mobile site like you said I would
 
This is good.
 
@Wipqozn So quickly? They're just at 220 episodes now (if we're talking about the anime).
 
11:04 AM
Should I watch Naruto?
 
(Last episode was aired in 2007 though, so I'm not sure where there "in 5 chapters" comes from, unless they re-started production for some finale)
 
@MartinSojka No, talking about the manga, which is at chapter 694. So if they keep up their one chapter per week schedule it will be over in a little over a month.
Oh, supposedly November 10th is the day the final chapter releases.
@MartinSojka The anime is still on-going.
Naruto: Shippuden is an anime series adapted from Part II of the Naruto manga series by Masashi Kishimoto. The series is directed by Hayato Date and produced by Studio Pierrot and TV Tokyo. Naruto: Shippuden is a continuation of the Naruto manga, and continues the same storyline after the passing of two and a half years in the Naruto universe. It began broadcasting on TV Tokyo on February 15, 2007. In 2008, Viz Media and Crunchyroll began providing eight English subtitled Naruto Shippuden episodes on the official Naruto website every week until it caught up to the Japanese anime. In 2009, Viz began...
 
Ah, ok. Speaking of long-running anime, I just checked Doraemon. It has 1787 episodes (1979-2005), I wonder if anybody ever watched it all ...
 
There's a time skip in the manga and anime. The Anime just made a new show after the skip
@fredley No. It's really poorly written. The characters are bad, the plot is bad, and it's way too long.
I only read it since I've been doing so since high school, so I'm invested and all that
 
@Wipqozn ok
 
11:11 AM
@MartinSojka Wow, that's quite impressive.
 
How many episodes has Pokemon?
850?
 
@fredley Not sure, but the anime is still on-going.
 
This is a list of episodes of the Pokémon animated series (ポケットモンスター, Poketto Monsutā, Pocket Monsters). The division between seasons of Pokémon is based on the English version openings of each episode, and may not reflect the actual production season. The English episode numbers are based on their first airing either in syndication, on the WB Television Network or on Cartoon Network. Subsequent episodes of the English version follow the original Japanese order, except where banned episodes are shown. == Series overview == == Pokémon (Series 1) == === Season 1: Indigo League === ===...
 
The pokemon anime won't end until the games end I suspect.
also I think Ash is still 10.
 
@Wipqozn You know about the coma theory?
 
11:15 AM
Why theorise something strange and uncommon when you can just link to TVTropes article mentioning it and the Simpsons and South Park and ... (No worries, I won't actually link to TVTropes)?
 
@Wipqozn Same age as Bart
 
@MartinSojka The damage is already done.
 
@5pike No
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, the Angels were heavily favored to win it all this year.
 
@Wipqozn Basically, Ash falls into coma during the first episode, where Pikachu scares away the birds with a thunder-shock.
 
11:18 AM
@5pike That's morbid
 
@fredley Yes, it is.
 
And hilarious
 
I'd have thought that Ash would magically be a 13yo given COPPA and pals
"Sure, Ash hon, if you'd like to sign up for our tourney we're going to have to get your parent's approval, maybe you could get them to fax us?"
 
@badp I think it's well established that they don't really give a damn about those things in the pokemon universe.
 
11:33 AM
is anybody interested in 90% off The Book of Unwritten Tales?
inb4 "we all have this coupon already"
 
Potentially
What's SteamPlay?
 
> What is Steam Play?

Steam Play allows you to purchase your games once and play anywhere. Whether you have puchased your Steam Play enabled game on a Mac or PC (both Windows and Linux), you will be able to play on the other platform free of charge.
 
@5pike I see
Doesn't seem Unwritten Tales will play on Linux though, so no good
 
Oh no wait, it will
 
11:44 AM
@fredley Enjoy it! I has Thrilling Adventure tickets for this Saturday.
Also, @FAE @Fluttershy @OrigamiRobot @AshleyNunn @anyone I'm forgetting, the crossover is really really good.
 
11:57 AM
oh come on
9 diamonds to practice against bosses? :|
