Q: What exactly does the Blood Orb do?

Once you get into the ancient Egyptian-style area, you can grab the Ancient Crate and get a random ancient item. One of these is the Blood Orb, which has a stats screen description that states the following: An orb that holds some life-energy inside. Consume it to replenish health. The one ...

Hi all, quick question on reviewing gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/163055/…

Except for the last part (what should I do about the harder ones), rest of Q. doesn't seem like a list question - just number of achievements. As such, I voted to leave it open

But I see that it has several close votes, anything I'm missing? :/ Or just people assuming 'how many' implies 'list all of the achievements'? Because it has a valid answer already which seems fine to me.

@Unionhawk Oh really?

@RedRiderX Oh, you're on the riker becomes a Q episode?

Yep

This is a great episode

It's absolutely crazy.

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn We lost at floor hockey again.

@Alok The only part of that question which is on-topic and fit for the site is the "how many are there?" part.

> how long would it take to get them all? What do I have to do for some of the hardest ones?

We can't tell him how long it would take to get them all, and "hardest" is a matter of opinion.

If you wanted to trim out everything but the "how many are there" part it would be fine. I think it's a bad question, but it would be fine.

Also, iirc aren't all achievements accessible in-game, except for secret ones?

@Lazers Why would they make a quest line that prevents you from finishing the game? o.O

MBraedley

@MichaelFrank I've seen it before. Mostly in rogue likes though.

@MBraedley Wouldn't that be an ending unto itself?

MBraedley

@MichaelFrank true, but only in so far that death is an ending. You haven't "completed" the game

Good/evil type RPGs also do it to a certain extent, although not usually at the expense of the main story.

Trent Hawkins

@MichaelFrank Honestly, I wouldn't be too supprised

MBraedley

In any case, I'm off to bed.

Trent Hawkins

@MichaelFrank I'm fairly certain there's at least one NPC that's critical to something or other that is killed off during the civil war. Typically, this is the sort of thing that the inevitable unofficial patches fix.

:-D

I like this quest giver

@TrentHawkins Ahh, really? Seems silly.

Trent Hawkins

2:11 AM

@MichaelFrank It's almost inevitable with most modern large-scale open world games now-a-days. There's also one quest with an optional peaceful method for breaking someone out of jail. The peaceful part was scrapped, but the 'optional' quest text was left in.

Alternating between Starbucks, the Library, Panera, and other locations - to do my job hunting for several hours.)

and I can't do that.

In particular, I found it helped to take the extra time to go to an inconvenient such place, simply to impart the regularity of a 'commute' onto the whole process, and also to force me to engage with the world, and not just go 4 blocks away.

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment wat

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Yes, but that requires going and leaving my house, which means tangling with a bus schedule, which means getting depressed about everything because the world is, right now, just full of things I cannot have and quite frankly I am tired and frustrated and kinda pissed off at everything.

5:00 AM

Breaking patterns can help to, y'know, break bad patterns. And it sounds to me like you are either falling into a bad pattern, or, at least, are concerned about falling into one and I am suggesting that you do so. Because for all that fighting with a bus schedule and leaving the house is frustrating, is it really more frustrating than being housebound, depressed, and angry all the time?

@AshleyNunn <3 it's okay. Sometimes people don't understand anxiety and depression because they haven't been there themselves. Or maybe they have but just in a different way. You need to do what's good for you.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz It's better to be depressed anxious and angry in a space where I can express those things than in public. I've done too much crying in public lately.

user15026

It's been four fucking months, okay? I am tired, I am losing hope, I am angry at pretty much everything, my boyfriend is in an entirely different country, in 3 months welfare is going to be my best and only option. Sorry if I am not all like yay advice righht now.

I am not saying you need to do this, but I am saying that this is what worked for me, and you are responding in exactly the ways I responded before I forced myself to get out and pretend to be normal.

@LessPop_MoreFizz stop. Seriously, stop it. She's fragile right now and your language is starting to get hostile. Absolutely help and offer advice but she's allowed to not take it or disagree with it. Don't start cursing at her because she doesn't like what you have to say

45 mins ago, by Yuki

Harvest Moon has been fairly static in most of its consistent mechanics, particularly those relating to relationships.

@Yuki I'd imagine if you can't find any information stating that it has indeed been changed, it should be a legit answer.

true unless proven wrong. SCIENCE!

user15026

@Yuki This is tricky. Like someone tried today to answer a Pokemon White question of mine with Pokemon X/Y stuff, and that didn't work because it had been changed. But for something where it is a constant, it likely would work

5:20 AM

@AshleyNunn X/Y probably had the most changes of any pokemon game, but a quick google search will tell you that mechanics have changed

@AshleyNunn Is it unanswered? I could give it a shot.

I could too :D

I remember a lot of things. In weird combinations.

user15026

Usually things that don't really matter :P

@AshleyNunn same.

I'm horrible at remembering details of things though.

especially words...

so everything in my mind is a "thingy"

Shoot, I can't remember if A Wonderful Life had grades of quality on food.

user15026

5:24 AM

@Chippies I am bad for that. My mom asked where she left her glasses and I was like "on the thingy, you know, by the whatchmacallit" and my dad just about lost it

user15026

he was like "man, now she will find them for sure"

user15026

it amused me

@Yuki judging by this, yes ca.ign.com/faqs/2004/…

@AshleyNunn "that thing on the thing" is a good way to describe anything

user15026

@Chippies It's multipurpose.

it works for everything

especially if you add "ya'know?" at the end

5:26 AM

@Chippies Where does it say that? I know there's quality on crops, not sure if it transferred to food.

*Upseed flowers, when crossed with a crop by Tartan will produce S grade seed.
I'd imagine this is related?

words >.>

@Chippies That's for crops. Not sure if it translates to food though.

I know Rune Factory does food quality, but I don't remember if HM does, or if it is just dish success, dish fail

well, tbh I have no idea what you're talking about, I just thought I could help :x

@AshleyNunn I know the newer Harvest Moons have food quality, but A Wonderful Life was Gamecube.

5:27 AM

is fruit considered food?

because it has fruit grades

user15026

@Yuki Yeah, I remember playing it

user15026

I am trying to find out :)

@Chippies Ah, my bad. In real life, yes. In Harvest Moon, "food" is usually used to refer to "cooked food".

But you are able to eat crops and fruit. It's just not a great use of them.

@Yuki I'd imagine this would include grades if there were any, I didn't notice any at a quick glimpse ca.ign.com/faqs/2004/…

@Chippies Judging from the fact that there is only one price for each food, I'm assuming there's only one grade. But that assumption is based on the fact that they would modulate sale price if there were grades.

Oh wait... in this Harvest Moon, the likes and dislikes for gifts was a bit more... broad, IIRC.

Great. Work virus scanner just declared some library a risk and deleted it. And no undo available...

@Arperum Did you have Slaughterhouse Five?

Or maybe Huckleberry Finn?

@Yuki I am just trying to use iTextSharp. Goddammit Norton.

@Arperum I guess jokes about American censorship don't fly well outside of the US.

@Yuki Nope, they sailed straight over. I saw a joke, but I have no clue what's it aiming at.

7:36 AM

@Arperum Well, you mentioned a library being deleted due to a risk being detected.

Slaughterhouse Five and Huckleberry Finn are both books that are often banned in libraries, bookstores, and wherever else because they are considered "risky" for developing minds to read.

cc @AshleyNunn because I actually made a library joke.

@Yuki yay for censorship </sarcasm>

@MartinSojka "Cutting edge", it's been there since 2012. That's not the edge anymore.

If you're running a server ... yes, it is.

@KevinvanderVelden Morning. Good online radio for you.

Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY @GnomeSlice

Happy birthday @GnomeSlice and @KevinvanderVelden!

^.^

Thanks @Arperum =p

(If my memory didn't fudge up)

You are correct

Pretty much the only reason I remembered the date of his birthday =p

Also: ID readers are terrible.

9:35 AM

Pretty much

@KevinvanderVelden I have to modify some of my first projects ever to include an eID reader button. In a website. Today is horrible.

The code in that thing is terrible. I was an idiot back then. Probably still am though.

@MartinSojka actually cutting edge is not vulnerable.

@badp Cutting edge as of today isn't. Cutting edge last week still is.

@MartinSojka Ubuntu 12.04 is vulnerable and approaching end of life.

Or I misread.

9:41 AM

@Arperum Last week is so passè.

@badp It is indeed. It's kind of hazy though. All I remember is Age of Wonders >_< plus applying for a loan for my house.

@Arperum I remember a lot of procrastination.

@badp Ubuntu's so-called "LTS" are misnamed anyway. Just five years of support? Meh. In any case, it'll be EOL'd in 2017 if I remember correctly.

I stand corrected.

At any rate, the short list of unaffected distros shows Squeeze, which EOLs in about one month

and whatever the hell "SUSE Linux Enterprise Server" is (are they too cool for version numbers?)

@MartinSojka well, isn't ubuntu mainly intended for desktops? 5 years of support for a desktop is almost decent

9:45 AM

@badp RHEL 5 / CentOS 5 (which is what I'm mainly using) is unaffected.

@KevinvanderVelden I think Ubuntu is the second most popular server distro, too.

@badp shudders Oh well. Still better than windows!

SLES has, of course, version numbers. Current one is SLES 11, released 2009.

"Current"

One day I should try and use sid as my linux distro. That will be fun, and no less unstable than early upgrades to Ubuntu alphas.

It's a commercial server distro. That's rather typical of them. RHEL 5 (the one I'm using) is from 2007 and will be supported until 2021. I'll probably switch to 6 or 7 in 2020.

9:50 AM

At least Debian tries to give a fuck about not breaking configuration between upgrades, unlike Arch does.

@MartinSojka So long as your developers are okay with being stuck in 2007 in 2020...

...and then jumping ahead by 13 years all in one go

That's going to be fun

RHEL 6 is from 2010, RHEL 7 2014. That's at max a jump by 7 years.

That's almost twice as manageable!

Given that most of the custom stuff that's running there is either PHP or Java, I'm not too worried.

Q: How do you become a vampire/werewolf in Elder Scrolls Online

0

The game is released for a few days now. I have heard that you can turn into thoses beasts. I have a few questions about that How do you turn into werewolf/vampire ? On the chat people said they can bite others but who bite them first? How long does the effect last ? Are there any cons ? Maybe ...

@Lazers Part of me wonders if being able to turn into a vampire or werewolf in ESO is someone trolling, part of me dreads that it's actually possible and the lore breakage the team had to do to make those work in an MMO setting.

@MartinSojka You mean more lorebreaking then having millions of crazy immortal murderous freaks running around?

Yeah. I mean, normally a vampire couldn't run around in the sunlight, which would mean some players would be prevented from exploring and much of the questing for half of the time. How could they change it, make them just sparkle instead? That would be silly.

I love being able to vote to delete answers.

now I can cast delete votes on those crap answers which are technically answers, so they shouldn'tbe flagged, but are so terrible they shouldn't exist.

@Wipqozn There is a low quality flag for these. Or isn't that good enough for you?

Ooh: this seems pretty fancy: raspberrypi.org/raspberry-pi-compute-module-new-product

@Arperum That flag doesn't get much use on Arqade since our mods prefer to avoid deleting answers for being crap, and like to leave it for our 20k users to make the call.

Hmm.. should a 10.000 line (auto-generated) query consisting of nothing but insert into (select .. union .. select ..union) etc take 15 minutes? >.>

@KevinvanderVelden Yup. Inserting 10k records takes time.

blegh

@KevinvanderVelden I know your pain, I once had to insert ~200k records like that. And the querylength limit was annoying.

Querylength limit is not something I'm really worrying about, go go gadget unix split =p

@MartinSojka Luckily ubuntu had already updated their repos, so getting our servers patched was fine

Huh... doing every insert seperately is much faster than doing them via union
