@Yuki I just sat down to dinner :P
 
Latest Agents of Shield was really good.
 
@Frank I haven't been watching that. As a series, good or just trading on the name?
 
@AshleyNunn Poops.
 
@DavidM Pretty decent. Less action-y than the movies, but the story is quite good.

12:12 AM
@Yuki I can let you know when I am done, and we can go from there? :)
 
@Frank Not necessarily a bad thing. I've felt that the movies have become too action centered and not enough plot line.
 
@AshleyNunn Okays.
 
@DavidM I've been really enjoying it as well.
 
@DavidM That it has in spades.
There is a good chunk of action, but it's not all superheroes and smashing stuff.
 
This weeks episode is definitely the highlight of the season thus far.
 
12:15 AM
Sounds interesting. I'll probably catch up on it later from Netflix or something.
 
Its one of those slow burn series ;p
its just getting interesting
(also, its awesome, but the show has a lot of haters....)
 
Anyone been watching True Detective?
I've really enjoyed that!
 
@DavidM (reading as "really enjoyed Alexandra Daddario's... performance")
 
@MBraedley That was a VERY positive side benefit.
 
@DavidM McConnaughey's new career has been SO GOOD.
 
12:20 AM
I didn't see Dallas Buyer's Club.
He has always been one of those actors who could act well, but got put in shit parts.
 
@DavidM Y'know why I love these high school girls?
 
That said, I think I'm the one guy who liked the movie Sahara.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Cause I keep getting older and they all stay the same age.
 
@DavidM Not just that, but also Mud.
 
@MBraedley Just Googled that name and realized I recognized her from White Collar.
 
@MBraedley I remember flipping past Percy Jackson and seeing those eyes . . . made me watch that piece of shit for a few minutes.
I think Failure to Launch was a masterpiece of the cinema. Fellini is rolling over in his grave that he never made anything like it!
And, fucking TBS always seems to show it whenever I'm on call, stuck in my little call room with nothing to do and NOTHING else on TV except reality TV about which redneck can find more stuff stuck in a storage locker and cook it faster than a supermodel who is looking to find Mr. Right amongst 17 strangers while they both lose tons of weight . . .

Q: TDS - New Assignments System... Am I missing something?

CatijaThe "handsome rewards" aren't. None of my Assignments give rewards that are higher than the cost of the items to build. For example, one of them wants 16 Internal Forcefields (1875 each) AND 14 Improved Alloy (1000 each). That means that it'd cost me 44,000 to build all of them. Unfortunately...

I get what he/she wants to complain about, but I don't really see a question in here . . .

Q: Lost worlds in survival

ImsosocoolAbout 2 or 3 of my worlds have disappeared randomly.my laptop is like, 12 years old and has 3.000 icons,but my whole Minecraft bin got lost on Sunday. Does any one know why this happens? Minecraft shuts down and I get back on and BOOM! Lost world. So please tell me why this happens!

 
@DavidM I think the question is is there any 'reward' that accounts for the net negative currency?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah. I hear you, but it seems . . . forced.
 
@DavidM Yeah, it's definitely written rantily.

“@IndieStatik: Our top 100 most anticipated indie games of 2014 (and runners-up) http://indiestatik.com/2014/01/01/indie-games-2014/" Amazing list! So much variety :)
 
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment So much wat
 
@RedRiderX The description makes it sound like a dev site ... The questions look purely like legal advice ...
 
Banished makes the list.
A long with 99 other good things.
 
@Lazers This guy.
 
1:12 AM
It ... just ... like ... wat.
 
Ugh what is the opposite of a  ?
 
CC @Frank @kalina
 
@RedRiderX How do you mean "opposite"?
 
Like a html entity that explicitly tells the page it can break there
And isn't a space
 
1:15 AM
@RedRiderX you mean a breaking space?
 
@RedRiderX <br />
 
^ that
 
There's also a character for "if you need to break, break here"
But I'd have to dig that up.
 
@FEichinger Yeah I meant that
 
I barely use it. Wrote a util for it a while back that I haven't used in ages.
 
1:15 AM
@FEichinger Heh yeah I don't use it much either but I'm drawing a blank right now
 
@Lazers Huh. Suspension for low quality contributions. Ouch.
 
Word Break Opportunity, it's called.
 
Ah wbr
Okay thanks
@FEichinger Yeah, no wonder I couldn't remember that :P
 
HTML tag has the advantage that browsers can render it into a break dash.
 
@FEichinger that's not an entity but an element... wait, what?
 
1:18 AM
@Braiam It's so browsers can choose how to render it.
Say, replace with "-\r\n" instead.
 
Yeah I thought that there was an entity too.
 
@Braiam Weeeell, yeh, entity handling is quite ugly.
 
Eh yeah
 
That said, you want an entity-based solution? Zero-width space is your friend.
But that's semantically ugly, too.
 
1:20 AM
well this situation is a long email address that isn't wrapping and is just overflowing it's container
 
<wbr> has no semantic meaning, zwsp is technically a space.
 
Oh
hmm
 
It doesn't render as a space, but it is one.
That said, if the problem is an email address ...
I don't think we have a best-practice for that, actually.
 
> Pavilion is a fourth person exploratory experience about guidance, influence and subliminal control. Manipulate the surrounding environment, influence his sense and guide the main character on the path towards truth.
 
You sure making the container larger isn't an option?
 
1:25 AM
@FEichinger I'm trying to make sure it'll work when it gets really small
I could maybe try a link instead
Oh darn
I think I did myself over with the z-index
link's parent has zindex of 2, the next ancestor has a zindex of -1
and everything else is default
I can't click the link
I think I'll have to rejigger something...
 
I've actually never come across an instance where I'd need to linebreak an email address ...
And Google doesn't reveal anything either.

Q: Pokemon Bank Switching Gifts pokemiles or battle points

FortuInn_CookiezCan you switch between pokemiles and battle points? if so can you tell me how?

 
I mean, where do you break? How many characters per line? Before or after the @? How do you render the break?
 
Yeah I'm faced with that right now
but I might try to rejigger
 
Well, you'll run into the same thing again eventually no matter what.
 
1:30 AM
True
 
I love when I come in here and see a discussion about coding. It makes me remember why I didn't go into the family business . . . :D
 
And why is that?
And this is only really css at this point
 
You can spend hours working on something, and one misplaced character makes the whole thing break down. I've watched my Dad be driven crazy by it for years.
 
Well, if you're working in something moderately modern you have some (supposedly) helpful error messages.
But yeah, it can happen
 
@RedRiderX The protocol cap is at 2^8 - 2 characters ... You'd have to consider everything up to that, technically ... :/
 
1:33 AM
True . . . But, it can be fairly irritating regardless.
 
Wow
 
These days, I just search StackOverflow for my error, and hope someone else has experienced it too (which is usually the case)
 
@StrixVaria I'm so popular.
 
Yeah I...
 
@Yuki Frozen was good.
 
1:33 AM
Might try something else then
Thanks for the help
 
@Unionhawk That, surprisingly, turned up nothing in this case.
 
@Unionhawk Same
 
@FEichinger Did you google with site:stackoverflow, or search stackoverflow?
 
IDK - I prefer medicine. At least when I screw up, no one . . . oh wait . . .
 
@Unionhawk I searched everywhere for anything on the topic. No one seems to have come across this problem at all.
 
user15026
1:35 AM
@DavidM yeah, I was going to say, people don't come with error codes....
 
@FEichinger Well then. @RedRiderX's project is possessed.
 
@Unionhawk Oh my.
 
@AshleyNunn They do. They're just not very helpful. (Kind of like Mac System 6 . . .)
 
@Unionhawk No, no, the concern is pretty valid. As I said, the character limit is awfully high, so pretty much any UI would face this issue at one point.
Which raises the question: Why don't we have a best practice for it?
 
That's why there are so many email buttons and not explicitly written out addresses nowadays.
 
1:36 AM
 
@FEichinger I fail to see how a system being possessed is an invalid concern. Also, I haven't been paying too close attention partially because I don't know css, really.
 
@RedRiderX Well, yeh, but you still have a lot of instances where you'd have to render it.
Say, database entries, profile pages ...
 
@FEichinger Well yeah
 
Jeez that took forever to load!
 
This <wbr> seems to work out alright though
 
1:39 AM
My first suspension. /flex.
 
I kinda want to ask a question on Programmers now ...
 
Where's @WorldEngineer to hold me back?
 
@FEichinger I stand corrected.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz You have arrived as mod!
 
1:40 AM
@Unionhawk Clearly my ping worked :P
 
user20683
@FEichinger right here
 
@FEichinger I guess it did.
 
@WorldEngineer Best practice for linebreaking email addresses?
 
I used to love that! I had to maintain a network of Macs back in the early 90s. And, the Mac SE and other compact macs had an issue where the internal HDs would get too warm, and the cables would loosen up. Then they would start giving Mac Bombs. I'd have to crack the case and push the cables back into place. Problem solved.
 
@Wipqozn Mhmm.
 
1:41 AM
@FEichinger I'd say "Don't", personally
 
@AshleyNunn Are you done with dinner yet~?
 
user20683
@FEichinger not sure but probably on topic. Don't use "best practice" though.
 
@WorldEngineer You do realize you were supposed to tell me "No, don't do it, programmers is a terrible site!", right?
:P
 
user15026
@Yuki Yep, but I have apparently lost my headset, so. :(
 
user20683
@FEichinger it's a terrible site, you should still ask the question
 
1:43 AM
@AshleyNunn :(

That tear in my eye.
The trembling of my eyelids as I struggle to keep a straight face.

I keep forgetting Markdown doesn't work on multi-line messages.

@AshleyNunn It's okay. I don't have classes tomorrow so we can definitely do it then.
 
user15026
Although, now that song is in my head, replacing Pokerface so that is pretty win.
 
@AshleyNunn Success get!
 
user15026
@Yuki Perfect. I have a lunch thing and that is it, so I can definitely give you some afternoon time. :D
 
1:47 AM
I feel really awkward about spending an hour in this practice room, leaving, and not doing a bit of music.

Q: Can a new save withdraw from the pokemon bank?

Trent HawkinsI've been considering restarting my save and replaying the story with access to the entire National Pokedex (Minus a few Event-only Pokemon I'm missing) from the start. But I would first like to confirm: Can I withdraw my stored Pokemon from the bank if my game is reset? It seems that the only co...

Q: How to line-break an email address?

FEichingerAfter some discussion, I have come across a rather complicated situation. Say I intend to display an email address. I have, obviously, limited space available on the screen - be that browser or application UI. Email addresses are, however, limited to 64 + 1 + 255 = 320 characters by RFC5321, whil...

Tried to make it as workable as possible...
But I'm still stumped.
This is the kind of thing that should be obvious ... but isn't.
 
I feel like this straddles the line between Programmers.SE and UX.SE
 
It's somewhere in-between.
It could definitely work on either site. I mean, it's relevant for UX in that this is almost purely about display. On the other hand, the solution would be purely technical and based on spec data more than the actual result.
I mean, it doesn't matter how much space I have, 254 characters is too much to work with.
So it needs a solution independently of the particular UI involved.
OH MY GOD.
THE TOPBAR HAS A BACKLINK TO MAIN.
FINALLY.
(No, I don't mean the site supercollider. In the help dropdown, if you're on meta.)
 
2:16 AM
I was wondering if I was just terrible at figuring things out.
Glad they added that back. That's the first place I looked (once I found the new link to meta).
 
@StrixVaria Yeh, me too. I always use the link via the help dropdown ... And then I'm like "well, crap, now I need to use that other dropdown again".
 
My computer tried running the Next Car Game Demo on integrated graphics >_> needless to say it didn't go well
 
Fascinating. This guy has 1 rep, yet a silver badge for notable question. 2500 views, no up votes!

@DavidM Considering it is minecraft related, I can see that happening.
 
@DavidM Well, let's change that, then.
 
2:28 AM
@AshleyNunn Yeah, but NO up votes? 2500 views, and no one even reflexively voted on it?
 
user15026
@DavidM It might be a net vote thing, or maybe a lot of outside people through search
 
@DavidM Most are probably outside users.
 
I looked. Zero.
@FEichinger Probably.

2:31 AM
@FEichinger That's where comes in.
For anything worse.
 
At least Ashley isn't badp ... I haven't been kicked for it!
 
Namingway changes his name again to Campingway, asks me if I have any tents. Says he'll pay me for them. So I say sure, here's a tent. He goes, "No, no! I meant all of your tents." So he takes all 9 of my tents. They cost me 100g each. He gives me 300g.
What an asshole.
 
@StrixVaria OMG how do I find copper? D: I have like 50 iron bars, but only 4 copper bars. This game is so much harder than Terraria. T_T
Alright. I'm done whining now.

@Fluttershy I have like a billion copper and no iron. It's luck of the draw.

Nope.
 
How disappointing.
 
I'm barely in the top 10 :(
 
2:36 AM
@StrixVaria And I'm slowly catching up.
 
I've got to be nowhere close, between sleeping and not talking as much as some of you not-sleeping people.
 
@FEichinger It was actually a fairly well written question. Even had a video attached. Worth the up vote.
 
@DavidM My reasoning was that it generated traffic for the site, so I'd reward that.
Valid question that ends up beneficial? Sure as hell I'm upvoting it.
 
@FEichinger Oddly. He accepted the answer and didn't get rep for that.
 
@DavidM Community Wiki.
Doesn't generate any rep.
 
2:38 AM
Ah.
Why would that be made Community? The answerer's choice?
Oh yeah. He says in the comments it's a copy of someone else's answer in comments. Must be his choice.
 
Yep.
I do that, too.
 
@FEichinger Damned generous.
 
Meh. I didn't come up with the answer, so why get the rep for it?
