@djsmiley2k Yup, my godfather died two sundays ago... This is a terrible month.
 
@Arperum Those are fantastic games. I suggest playing Dark Souls 1 tonight, hopefully with Pixel curled up on your lp.
 
@Arperum I'm sorry to hear that :(
 
@Wipqozn adsfsafsdf
I'm sad that doesn't work.
 
gotta be honest... if it wasn't for words of radiance, I would buy bloodborne tonight...
 
Right gonna pop out and jack up on energy drink then it's soldering time.
 
1:01 PM
SAVE ME FROM MYSELF SANDERSON
I also can't let @Sterno win. That would be terrible.
 
@Wipqozn Maybe I should, but then I'd have to install it again, and that's so much work. And I need to do dishes so I can eat, (I ran out of forks, knives, plates and am starting to get through the creative solution things)
 
@Arperum I bet Lifehacks.SE can help you
 
@Wipqozn You'd be winning too. You'd be winning Bloodborne. And fun.
 
@Wipqozn I don't have an account, nor do I want one.
 
@Sterno Fun is the worst.

Q: How do I clean my sticky floor after a party night?

pLooryI held a New Year's party at my home, and my house was left a mess, afterwards. There's dirt, glitter and sticky confetti all over the floor, as well as the remains of different drinks that were dropped. What's the best way to clean all that junk off of my floor? After three times of cleaning...

How is that requiring a lifehack?
That site is so dumb.
 
@Sterno Because that site is terrible.
 
@Wipqozn Well, there's pain too. When you die over and over and over again

TerryWith a party game. See who can clean the floor the best with soap and water.

Best answer possible.

A: How do I clean my sticky floor after a party night?

WipqoznHire a cleaning service. They're experts when it come to cleaning, and have the proper tools and skills one needs for cleaning up any mess.

Oh, right, I'm the reason that question is open!

Q: Why was this question about cleaning a sticky floor closed as off-topic?

WipqoznThis question has been closed as off-topic: How do I clean my sticky floor after a party night? The only reason justification given by the closers was from Zach, who said: Since cleaning it with a mop and floor cleaner doesn't work, it means you'll need a really heavy duty solution which me...

 
1:20 PM
now youtube is advertising that game at me
from the makers of dark souls..
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME.
 
@djsmiley2k AdblockPlus
Ishould get @SternoBlockPlus
 
@Wipqozn but it gave me infomation that's making me actually WANT it.
 
@Wipqozn Harvest Moooooooooon.
 
so many games, not enough time
 
@Rapitor The solution is not to quit your job.
I tried that. Still not enough time.
 
1:29 PM
but then i won't have money for games
 
@Rapitor Assume unlimited money.
 
@Frank Cheat Enabled

Q: How Do I get back to the shooting gallery on the rolling ridge?

kobeI fell down to the base and now I can't get back to where the Goron Elder was or anything

 
@Lazers Preeeeeetty sure this is about a Kairosoft game, but there's not enough there to figure out which one.

Q: What is the drop rate for plate items?

mikethirteenI am hoping to upgrade my charge blade soon but I need an S. Magala Plate. I have fought the Shagaru Magala a number of times now, breaking all the different parts off it where possible, but the Plate still hasn't dropped for me. Does anybody know how rare the plates for monsters are? It is more...

 
I spent way too much time playing Town of Salem yesterday.
 
@Powerlord i've been there
@Arperum that really sucks, i'm sorry
 
Uh, did PHP 6 come out when I wasn't looking? If not, why is Zend saying PHP7 is due out this year?

Q: Choices in Telltale's Game of Thrones

MattRIn the likes of the Walking Dead the choices didn't really have much of an impact on the story, you might end up with a different companion depending on who you save, or some people might be more enclined to be friendly, but it never felt like there was anything major by selecting specific option...

 
@Arperum Noooo. I'm sorry :(
 
@Powerlord are they doing a microsoft thing and skipping 6?
 
@Powerlord Did you expect a logical order from PHP? I'd expect 6 to realease after 7.
 
@Powerlord Nothing else about PHP makes much sense so it's about time the version number followed suit.

Q: How often do the Diablo 3 forum character profiles update?

ChaseCExample: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Rhyinn-1349/hero/11893854 How often does this update? Is it every time you log in to Diablo 3? Is it only during a certain time of day? I vaguely remember that World of Warcraft armory updates every time you log out, does Diablo 3 work the same way be...

 
2:11 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Apparently, yes
 
@Sterno I don't even have a PS4
 
In Town of Salem yesterday, I did have an instance where, in an All Any game, we ended up with 3 Arsonists.
 
Needless to say, we lit up the town.
 
@Wipqozn You don't want to be lamer than Best Buy, do you?
You need both these things!
 
2:16 PM
(Oh, didn't I mention I was one of the Arsonists?)
And then there's the game where I was Madame Zoistra the Godfather and got roleblocked for 6 consecutive nights... while the town ignored the Escort's claims that I must be bad.
You'd think the Townies would catch on when there were no killings for several nights in a row.
 
@Powerlord I did an All Any once where the only killing role was a single werewolf.
So like every 3 nights one or two people would die.
It took forever.
 
@Powerlord That would require thinking. Many townies lack that ability.
 
@GnomeSlice Well, the thing about the Arsonists is that we knew there were at least 2 because 2 of us targetted the same person on night 1, killing them.
 
Oh wow, that Germanwings plane crash took on a really disturbing twist. :/
 
The weird part is... the Town killed the Mafia rather quickly in this game.
Which meant that the Mafia couldn't point out which roles were immune even in their death notes.
Worse yet (for them), the Mayor revealed mid-game and apparently there were no Bodyguards
So we toasted the Mayor the next turn. :D
 
2:21 PM
@TimStone damn, son.
 
Although... Bodyguard can't block Arsonist, can they?
@TimStone I heard about that this morning on the radio. :/
 
@TimStone Jeez. I heard about the pilot being locked out and banging on the door to try to get in, but at that point they were speculating that the co-pilot was unconscious or something.
 
I've heard in the US that there can never be less than 2 people in the cockpit to try to prevent this sort of thing. One of the flight attendants has to stay in the cockpit while the pilot or copilot leave.
(meaning that it's pilot + flight attendant or copilot + flight attendant)
 
@TimStone True...
 
Not that the flight attendant couldn't be overpowered or something.
For that matter, the flight attendant could overpower the pilot/copilot...
 
Yeah, now they'll have to weigh the likelihood that someone in the cockpit poses a danger to the plane versus the likelihood someone with the access codes to unlock the door could be forced to under duress, since that's presumably the reason for the existence of the lock lever.
 
@TimStone Just make all the planes automated, like our overseas drones.
 
Those still have pilots. :P
 
@TimStone Yes, but without controls in the planes, it's much harder to physically hijack.
Digitally, however....
 
Easier to deal with an errant pilot on the ground than several kilometers in the sky, right?
 
2:31 PM
Especially when it became known that some drones being used overseas had absolutely zero encryption on their broadcasts, making it trivially easy to read and take over.
 
@Frank It also introduces a single point of failure, though.
Pilots can operate aircraft with multiple levels of system failure if they're physically present, but if that link gets cut...
 
@TimStone Technically, the pilots themselves are also points of failure.
 
@Frank or you have a thunderstorm or something else which disrupts long range transmissions
 
Someone just invent Stargates. No need for planes, then.
 
The real issue here is probably that the pilot was able to make such a predictably unsafe alteration to the plane's flightpath without independent confirmation from anything/anyone else.
 
2:34 PM
@TimStone how do you reliably determine that something is unsafe though?
 
> "The most plausible interpretation is that the co-pilot through a voluntary act had refused to open the cabin door to let the captain in. He pushed the button to trigger the aircraft to lose altitude. He operated this button for a reason we don't know yet, but it appears that the reason was to destroy this plane."
 
@MattGiltaji Well usually if there's bad weather or something that might require emergency action both pilots will be present anyway, in which case you can make the reasonable assumption that at least one of them has the best interests of the aircraft in mind.
 
But dropping 22,000 feet in the middle of the route is very abnormal behaviour except in a case of decompression, so the fact that the co-pilot did that by himself is a little suspicious.
The planes have nothing to determine that both pilots are present, etc. now though, which might be something to consider in the future.
On the other hand it seems highly unlikely something like this would happen again, though knowing the co-pilot's motivations would be useful (and we probably never will).
 
@TimStone We still need to wait for the voice recording analysis to be completed.
 
2:39 PM
@TimStone A dual key system for drastic manoeuvres?
 
@TimStone There is at least one other known case like this, but it is likely very hard to guard against a rogue pilot.
 
.... So very tempted to buy a PS4 after seeing some Bloodborne gameplay last night.
 
@Frank I mean, they said the co-pilot said absolutely nothing after the captain left the cockpit, and that he was breathing normally when the captain was banging on the door, so I dunno how much else they'll get out of it.
 
@MadScientist About the only thing you could do was make it so the plane could not be put in a collision course with the ground
 
@TimStone Could he have just passed out on the stick?
 
2:40 PM
But then that causes issues if the computer malfunctions and doesn't know where the ground is
 
@SaintWacko Coda is no more :(
 
@Frank And also bounced off the door and locked it?
@Arperum What?!
What happened?
 
6 hours ago, by Arperum
Coda is dead. Hit by a car.
 
@MadScientist Indeed. Compared to the number of successful flights within that time period it's (thankfully) a highly unlikely occurence.
 
6 hours ago, by Arperum
He was the last thing I got from my godfather before he died :(
 
2:41 PM
@Arperum :(
I'm so sorry
 
@Yuuki i was expecting more explosions, has arnold done a serious role before?
 
@SaintWacko I don't know. I think we're working with incomplete information here.
 
@Frank It sounds like he adjusted the target altitude in the aircraft's computer, but it's hard to tell.
 
@MattGiltaji I think so, but I'll have to look it up.
 
@SaintWacko Too dangerous in that absolute way in cases where the sensors malfunction, probably. Airbus already prevents pilots from performing certain dangerous maneuvers in regular operation, but from what I understand a pilot that knows the systems could force them into the alternate law mode where those protections are disabled
 
2:42 PM
They said that the sound of his breathing doesn't indicate any sort of health emergency like a heart attack, though.
 
@Yuuki no need. i figured we would start getting serious zombie movies eventually
 
@MadScientist Exactly
 
@SaintWacko I'm also pretty sure Pixel saw it happen, because he was not in his normal self this morning. (I locked him inside for today)
 
twitter.com/GentooFishtank is my new project, don't know if I've told you guys yet :D
 
Now maybe you could have a system where both pilots must be present to override the safety system
 
2:43 PM
@MattGiltaji I'm really interested in seeing Arnold in serious drama-type movies.
I think it'd be pretty awesomely hilarious to see him win an Oscar.
 
@TimStone what should I do with my 40m in assets?
 
@Yuuki it really would
 
@SaintWacko Something like that, but with a more practical and time-efficient implementation. :P
@OrigamiRobot Give them to me?
 
That would be tedious
 
True
HMMMM
 
2:44 PM
@djsmiley2k so does gentoo run the fishtank? i'm afraid i don't quite get it
 
@Arperum I'm so sorry :(
 
Get even moar assets and buy a FDL?
 
Clipper?
 
Is that enough to outfit it?
 
I don't know
 
2:45 PM
That's the worst part, budgeting like twice the ship cost for outfitting x_x
Stupid hull upgrades. |:
 
Yea
But the vulture is so nimble
 
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
 
@TimStone i slept with x, now it burns when i pee
 
Notice: The Bridge will be offering a free sexual education course so that we may all avoid ending up like @MattGiltaji.
 
@TimStone this needs pinning, yall don't want to end up like me
 
2:48 PM
The bridge is the last place I'd go for sex ed
7
 
@MattGiltaji Gentoo will run on the pi that monitors (And one day hopefully controls) the fishtank
 
@djsmiley2k ooh, that's cool
 
@MattGiltaji Silly @MattGiltaji, Gentoo only runs on toasters, not on fishtanks
 
@OrigamiRobot When a question and an answer love each other very much...
 
GAAAAH 68 MINUTES SO HYPE.
 
2:53 PM
@PrivatePansy ...and that's how voting fraud happens
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz dammit i wanted to roll my char before going to work
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz For what?
 
@MattGiltaji hehe glad you like it :)
 
@SaintWacko pillars of eternity
 
Origianlly I was building gentoo for Pi for a hyperiond/ambi-view project however various things have annoyed me so much about it I've stopped that project for now. And my fishtank needs new lightning, so why not make something awesome.
 
2:54 PM
@MattGiltaji What's so exciting about it?
 
@SaintWacko It's going to be fantastic.
 
@Wipqozn Why?
What makes it different from every other MMO?
 
@SaintWacko For starters, it's not an MMO.
 
It's not an MMO, is it?
 
Oh
What is it?
I haven't heard anythign about it
 
2:56 PM
@SaintWacko Top down, infinity engine style, isometric party based RPG
 
closest comparison would be Baldurs Gate, right, @LessPop_MoreFizz?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz What
 
Even though it does a lot of stuff different... it's what it's inspired b y
 
What
 
From a team at Obsidian comprised of the lead dev from Icewind Dale 2 and Fallout New Vegas, and the lead writer from Planescape Torment.
 
2:56 PM
That sounds awesome
WHAT
Damnit, you guys
Now I have to get it
 
I should buy PoE so I can counter troll @Sterno with it.
 
I also just bought it after seeing the really positive reviews
 
@Wipqozn You could've had it for less than half price.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Nh, I'm not really going to buy it now.
@Sterno would still ultimately win if I did.
I'll pick it up in a couple months.
 
2:59 PM
IGS may or may not be having a GnomeSlice Sale come april
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz But I don't have a spare $45 right now
Oh well
@GnomeSlice April 1st?
 
April 8th?
 
8th?
 
@GnomeSlice Will SkyDrift be in it?
 
@SaintWacko Could've paid 25 dollars last night! Sux 2 b u and @Wipqozn.
 
3:00 PM
@SaintWacko birthday
 
How?
@LessPop_MoreFizz Wait, seriously?
 
@JasonBerkan No, it's not on IGS.
 
I would have done that
Ugh, I should have paid more attention to this before
 
@SaintWacko They were letting backers buy additional keys at backer price right up to last night.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well dang
 
3:02 PM
I have absolutely no time for another RPG right now. I'll wait until the Steam Christmas sale.
 
@JasonBerkan Yeah, that's what I'll end up doing
Or the Steam summer sale
 
what about the steam spring sale
 
"The everything including the totally no longer exclusive pre-order DLC items bundle"
Kind of surprised Steam doesn't have an Easter sale.
 
GIANT MINIATURE SPACE PIGLET WHEN YOU PREORDER
BOO SAYS: WHAAAAAAAT
 
I know. I was tempted on that.
But it just wasn't enough to say 'I gotta do taht now'
 
3:17 PM
FINE
I HAVE JUST BOUGHT IT
I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY
 
NO
DON'T GIVE IN
STAND BY ME
 
@SaintWacko TO LATE
 
@JasonBerkan Yeah, main reason I'm waiting. Not enough time for more games right now.
 
Preordering something 1 hour in advance is best time to preorder something
 
@Wipqozn I'm just not spending a lot right now
 
3:19 PM
... That would be a cheaper impulse buy than this PS4 I'm staring at on Amazon
 
Putting money aside for a storm shelter under the garage
Especially after all the tornadoes last night
 
@SaintWacko I'm not buying it.
Does that help?
 
@Frank Yes
 
Hmmm bandwidth
200 Mbps down :D
 
I am, however, picking up the new Harvest Moon next week.
 
user15026
3:22 PM
@SaintWacko I was wondering if anyone I know was around all of that.
 
And it has been downloaded
 
user15026
@SaintWacko I won't be buying it at all :)
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, I live in Tulsa
One of the wall clouds passed about a mile from my house
 
user15026
@SaintWacko O.o
 
The one that was eventually out by the casino
 
3:24 PM
@SaintWacko I'll probably never buy it. Does that help?
 
It wasn't a tornado at the time, though
@AshleyNunn @OrigamiRobot I see who my true friends are!
 
I'll buy it but never finish it, if my track record with that subgenre of RPGs holds.
 
An Okie? I'm originally from there.
 
@MadMAxJr highfive
Whereabouts
 
Formerly western Oklahoma City. Now I'm in Kansas City.
 
3:25 PM
Having to control/outfit multiple characters is a downside to me
 
I was out in the Mustang-Yukon area from 1998 to 2007.
 
user15026
I have a mental map of where you all are so when my stormchaser friend posts stuff about "hello here is where the badness is" I know roughly who to worry over
 
I sometimes drive through Tulsa if I take 71 down to the turnpike and zip diagonally across OK.
Heard Moore got beat up bad by a Tornado. /Again/.
 
@AshleyNunn awwww
 
user15026
@MadMAxJr Yeah, they got hit pretty bad

Q: CS:GO achievements Tourist and Marksman not working

Optimus PrimeI did get popup message on the top left corner of the screen once saying that I unlocked/achieved the Marksman achievement, but it didn't save to my achievements list. Also Tourist is not unlocking, I did play and win not just rounds, but entire matches in each and every Arms Race and Demolition...

 
I was sad to see the pictures of Moore getting hit and the glory that is the Warren Theater being turned into a shelter and information center.
 
I guess I can release this now - the next languages for #stackoverflow are British and Australian, in that order.
 
@fredley blimey
 
Australian downvotes are Huntsman Spiders.
 
user15026
@fredley And nothing for us Canadians. :(
 
3:41 PM
@tinkertim The Canadians are patiently waiting their turn.
Canadian is a pretty trivial fork of British anyway :-P
 
user15026
@fredley Glad someone is looking out for us.
 
But what about French Canadian support?
 
user15026
@fredley Shush no we are TOTALLY different ;)
 
@fredley Just add, "eh?" to everything.
 
@AshleyNunn sorry
 
3:42 PM
Downvotes have a 3 point font 'sorry' under then.
*them
 
user15026
@fredley I think that's my line
 
@fredley Sorry, eh?
 
But talking about this makes me want Kraft Dinner dangit.
 
@StrixVaria: He also keeps using phrases which involve color, making it really obvious where he's from
 
def trans_canadian(string):
  return string + ', eh?'
 
3:43 PM
@fredley too many "a"s (or "eh"s)
 
No Pirate or L33T language support?
 
def trans_british(string):
  string.insert_at_random('u')
 
Lord of the Rings Elvish dialect?
 
@MadMAxJr mellon for upvotes
 
"Speak Friend and Upvote."
 
3:45 PM
Finnish would just be "replace 90% of everything with some variation of ä"
 
@Arperum sentiment.replace('optimism','pessimism')
 
@GnomeSlice You have a job. You can fix this!
 
I have two jobs
I keep spending all my money on music
 
@GnomeSlice But... music is free?
 
@Wipqozn Yes, do that.
@GnomeSlice Bloodborne has music. And you can listen to music on your PS4!
 
3:48 PM
For those asking, Bloodborne is exclusive to PlayStation 4 and there are no plans for a PC version.
Ouch.
 
Oh, will a PS4 output game sound over a 7.1 surroundsound USB headset?
 
@Fluttershy And there goes any inclination to ever get it.
 
PS3 was super friendly to logitech USB stuff.. wonder if that's still true on PS4.
 
@Frank Or some inclination to get a PS4!
 
@Frank Well, clearly, if you don't have a PS4, your statement won't hurt their sales anyway
 
3:49 PM
@Fluttershy That will happen when KH3 comes out.
@Sterno I quite often buy consoles for one specific game.
 
Honestly I'm staring at the PS4 on Amazon cause it'll come with Bloodborne and Last of Us: Remastered free as a promo.
 
Like I did the WiiU for MH3U, and the N3DS for MH4U.
 
@Frank So why in this case does it seem to make you angry that it's exclusive?
 
@MadMAxJr And it's a really good deal.
 
Honestly I'm happy they're upfront about it rather than dancing around (unless they're lying and doing a PC version later)
 
3:50 PM
The PS4 alone is $400. Bloodborne is $60, and TLoU:R is $50. So you're saving a good deal of money, and getting two of the best games available for the system to boot!
 
@MadMAxJr cc @Wipqozn
@Fluttershy also cc @Wipqozn
Here, let me just help him out with a direct link
 
@Sterno cc: @Wipqozn
Someone who is a room owner should pin that so @Wipqozn can't miss it.
 
@Fluttershy Canadians can't order from Amazon.com.
 
Or are limited in what they can order.
 
3:53 PM
Yeah, I don't see the bundle on amazon.ca
 
@JasonBerkan y u do dis
 
@JasonBerkan Oh. Well pinning would be pointless then. sigh I suppose you can remove me, @Sterno.
 
@StackExchange @Sterno just wanted someone to pin his own post.
 
@Fluttershy I'll leave that for @fredley or @badp. They enjoy that sort of thing. They'll probably get me too, while they're at it
 
@Fluttershy Or you could add me, then I remove you, then I remove @Wipqozn. Everyone is happy.
 
3:55 PM
 
At least I could get him back for last time.
 
@John That's a very circuitous way of removing @Wipqozn. :P
 
@Fluttershy was it everything you hoped it could be?
 
@MattGiltaji And then some.
 
3:55 PM
@Fluttershy But worth it every time.
 
Aaahhhh my first @Wipqozn removal.

> Let’s be clear about how this review’s going to go. If you want to go in completely blank, as I did, then stop reading at the end of this paragraph. Because all you need to know is in the introduction above. Let me summarise: “Should I buy Pillars Of Eternity?” Yes. There, good, job done
also cc @Wipqozn
 
Apparently, Pillars is already considered an instant classic, and rivaling Planescape: Torment.
 
IT'S TIME.
 
3:58 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz ugh, i wish i was home from work right now
 
BYE CHAT
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz See you in a month! \o
 
BYE FOREVER
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Lies!
"This game will unlock in approximately 1 hour"
 
@Sterno I mean, I have Amazon Prime, so this is like a finger on a $400 bullet gun.
 
3:59 PM
@KevinvanderVelden valve doesn't want people madly hitting refresh, it seems
 
Man... Pillars releases today, and I just picked up Bloodborne...
 
DAMN IT I JUST BOUGHT IT
DAMN YOU ALL
 
@Fluttershy Life is good
 
@MadMAxJr Do you have a spendable $400?
 
@fredley Wat? Didn't you preorder it
Why did you buy it again?
