Wow. All of my gold badges (except Fanatic) are Famous Question.
 
It's fun reading all the nerd rage about SUPERHOT only being about 2 hours long for the story mode
 
@Yuuki All of my gold badges are nonexistent.
 
@Sterno Yeah I think that plus the price is really getting a lot of knickers in a twist
 
Hm, that's weird. When did I get 50gb of free space on my SSD...?

@twobugs When Alphys upgraded your mobile she cleaned up some space in order to make room for the Dimensional Box B.
 
@RedRiderX It's a time honored tradition, it seems. Firewatch complaints were much the same.

@Frank domchores anyone?
 
Really excited for the leaked pokemon games. Back to that Red/Blue contrast, so good. https://t.co/vB3KtnENHd
These Pokemon leaks are looking pretty legit. https://t.co/UvqL83k69M
I'm not linking those to be a jerk. I just find the pictures associated with them to be amusing. :P

Q: What determines the psi stat in Xcom 2?

SkyHiRiderI fully trained four psi operatives and each one has a different psi stat. The lowest is 87 and highest is 99. What determines my psi stat ? Would learning higher level abilities that take longer than five days to train add more psi per lvlup?

 
12:54 AM
@Frank fair enough (grumble grumble over 8 years, no other hydro person complained about it...) Although... we have to get rid of it, or - we should get rid of it (before you sell/rent the house or another hydro person has to work on furnace)
 
@TrentHawkins We have seven days. Got a warning about it.
 
@Frank aah.
 
I pointed that out. Didn't make a difference.
 
@badp Apparently!
SUPER HOT is fun
 
@Frank well, I return this weekend, we can deal with it after that. I'm gonna need a smidge more storage space somewhere else then.
 
12:59 AM
@TrentHawkins Yeah, we'll need to figure that out.

@Sterno This doesn't really bother me that much because I don't really watch replays, but yeah it would be annoying if you just wanted to watch and analyze one
Apparently there's an "edit replay" feature built into the game? Haven't tried that
 
I've now seen three Equestria Girls movies. I'm considering gouging out my eyes. Somehow this is @Wipqozn's fault
 
The TOME launcher is really slow. Whatever

@Dragonrage It really is. It depends so much on your playstyle, and what you run into.
 
2:01 AM
@Frank and it also depends on like how fed someone is, and what you count as mobile
any mage can burst you if they have enough damage

SternoI've found the secret terminals on the first three levels, but can't find it on level 4. I even went climbing around on the palm trees underneath the level, but still couldn't find it. Where is it?

 
Another pointless raid! Yay!!!
I did more and bigger numbers than everyone else so personal victory at least :P
 
user15026
@twobugs yay big numbers
 
It's just frustrating when we've fought this boss literally 300 times and people are still not paying attention
I'm not The Best or anything but after THREE HUNDRED ATTEMPTS I've learned a thing or two
 
user15026
@twobugs O.o why so many attempts?
 
This is the last boss of the expansion so he's intended to be harder. But the real reason is that there are just a lot of things that can go wrong and people are not paying attention
 
5:20 AM
@GnomeSlice not much risk of that when the game is over in 2 hours :p
 
user15026
@twobugs See this is why I don't like multiplayer stuff, I get too frustrated too easy
 
@AshleyNunn A completely reasonable position to take! I just have fun playing with my friends and doing big numbers. This is just getting frustrating because while it's a hard boss, 300 deaths is A LOT

I'm not a morning person, but I'm properly awake though.
I blame the part where I tend to be in my bed by 1AM lately.
(with the exception of yesterday)
 
8:46 AM
I'm not a morning person either. Sadly for me, there is morning all the damn time somewhere on the planet.
 
We should all just stay in bed while it's morning
Or if that fails stay in bed in the afternoon, I'll accept that
 
@KevinvanderVelden Why is everybody poking me
 
Because we're jealous that you've already survived morning this day
 
You just have to come live in the future with me

I was mostly poking in the pile that was making weird noises, if that happened to be you I was poking... Pure coincidence.
 
We have jetpacks, you know
 
Speaking of the future, I've read that wheeled "hover"boards are no longer being sold on amazon

9:20 AM
No ClF3? I am dissapoint :(
 
Also hydrogen and chlorine gases, but not in any dangerous concentration.
 
(ClF3 is dangerous at damn near any concentration)
 
@KevinvanderVelden It has a significant concentration of F, so that's the default assumption.
 
@MartinSojka it's a stronger oxidizing agent than oxygen
> Chlorine trifluoride and gases like it have been reported to ignite sand, asbestos, and other highly fire-retardant materials. In an industrial accident, a spill of 900 kg of chlorine trifluoride burned through 30 cm of concrete and 90 cm of gravel beneath.
Also don't try to put it out with water: "The hydrolysis reaction with water is violent and exposure results in a thermal burn. The products of hydrolysis are mainly hydrofluoric acid and hydrochloric acid, usually released as steam or vapor due to the highly exothermic nature of the reaction"
 
As I wrote: If it has F in it, you should assume it's dangerous until proven otherwise.
 
9:27 AM
It's been proven dangerous ^^
I think this was the thing the germans were trying to use to build flamethrowers
The project was canned because it burned too well
 
Antiflourinist prejudice validated!

10:24 AM
It can be kept in some of the ordinary structural metals-steel, copper, aluminium, etc.-because of the formation of a thin film of insoluble metal fluoride which protects the bulk of the metal, just as the invisible coat of oxide on aluminium keeps it from burning up in the atmosphere.

Is there anyone else here with the Steam version of GTA IV who can't sign into Rockstar Social Club using the client, but can do so just fine on the website?
 
@djsmiley2k Speaking of which, discovering just how easily aluminium (foil) can burn all by myself was quite a big step on the road to fire-loving lunatic for the five year old me.
I remember it like it was today. It involved a careful construction out of matches, paraffin and aluminium foil helped along by a gas oven.
Good times, good times.
 
That's probably why Aluminium is so close to the French word for lighter: allumeur
 
Sadly unlikely, given that one comes from alum ("bitter salt") and the other from illuminare ("lighten up", "brighten").

1:14 PM
SUPER HOT
 
Not too stoked about it being closed
 
@nukeforum It's junk.
The epitome of opinionated.
 
Not really
I can answer it in an unopinionated, fact-based way
They're looking for assassins.
 
That doesn't mean the question isn't primarily opinionated.
 
1:16 PM
It's a specific category of flanking, high burst, high mobility champions in the game
It's not opinionated
 
You're making assumptions that's what's being asked.
 
I love these arguments.
 
No I'm not, the dude listed 2 assassins
and essentially is asking (but doesn't know how to look for) more assassins
 
I suggest taking it to Meta. Arguing with @fbueckert in chat will get you nowhere. And I have no opinion since I don't understand LoL
But given that I usually disagree with @fbueckert, if I did understand LoL, I'd probably vote to reopen. :)
 
@Sterno Probably. :P
But we do agree on occassion.

@nukeforum They're looking for best assassins. Which is entirely dependent on the meta.
Kha'Zix was "best" assassin two seasons ago and he's junk now.
 
@Yuuki Best Bursty and Mobile Champions in League
is the specific question
 
> Best
 
You don't need more information if part of the information is damning already
 
yeah, sounds to me like they don't know that there is a category called assassins that cover these features
 
@nukeforum You're ignoring the part where they're asking for the best ones.
 
rather than asking for the best champion at solo carrying for example
there are categorically best champions at doing those things
kha'zix is one of them
high mobility, high burst damage
he's not in meta
and he's not super strong at the moment
 
Asking for a list of bursty mobile champions is different from asking for the best bursty mobile champions.
 
1:30 PM
but he's in the category of champion that does high mobility and burst damage best
so removing the word best validates the question?
that makes no sense
given the context of the question
 
It makes a question subjective.
 
It's important to remember that subjectivity is okay if it draws on facts, references, and specific experience. You know, like PLAYING THE GAME
Here, let me quote it!
> Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.
 
@Sterno The other problem with "best" in this case is that it very much shifts with time.
 
"It shifts with time" has never, ever been a valid argument to close a question on this site.
 
@Sterno Never?
Fairly certain we've closed questions before on temporal locality.
 
1:33 PM
Not unless you are trying to argue the "blue car parked outside my house" argument, which I don't think applies.
I guess that's technically "it shifts with time", but more accurate it's "it shifts by the minute"
 
my argument is that the answer being searched for is "you're looking for assassins, here's a link to the complete list of assassins, and here's a list of current, in-meta assassins" which is (primarily) facts that can't change. Assassin champions don't ever become not assassin champions
they'll always be in the category of dealing burst damage with high mobility
 
@nukeforum Poppy.
 
You're talking about reworks
but we've had the discussion before about data staying valid between patches
 
@nukeforum Which is a thing that happens. And it makes champions different.
 
Games get patched. Guess we better not answer questions about them ever.
 
1:37 PM
that doesn't mean the fact that poppy was once an assassin is an opinion
 
@Sterno Sounds about right. If we close the site, we don't have any questions in the review queue.
Problem solved.
 
@Sterno that doesn't really apply to online only games where patches change game balance and the entire game (at higher levels) as a matter of course
 
@KevinvanderVelden The problem with that is that you have lazy people like me who have highly-upvoted accepted answers that are totally out-of-date now and can't be bothered to edit them to be accurate.
 
Thing is, It is HIGHLY unlikely that Riot will completely redesign enough champions to the point that "what champions are assassins" has changed dramatically
@Yuuki That's why people can edit other user's answers
 
We've had the conversation about the possibility of out of date answers before. That's not a valid close reason. Why are we arguing about that?
I'll go hunt down the 40 metas on it if I have to
 
1:40 PM
@Yuuki I'm saying that questions like this about games where that happens (regular game-changing patches) are... difficult
So I don't think we're disagreeing
 
@KevinvanderVelden Problem is, we're not talking about minor number adjustments here, we're talking about an entire class of champion
 
@KevinvanderVelden okay, so where do we determine the dropoff point for "regular game-changing patches"? At what point are we going to say "this game is patched too often to get a stable answer"?
 
@NateKerkhofs no idea

SPOILER ALERT: They're fine.
 
Probably, I am allowed to not like them however =p
 
1:43 PM
You're allowed not to like them. You're not allowed to vote to close based on your dislike.
(well, technically you are, but then I'm allowed to tell you you're doing it wrong)
 
@Sterno which I didn't
 
@KevinvanderVelden I know. But this entire argument is about whether or not the question should be open or closed, and the "it could change" is being cited as a reason it should be closed
 
@Sterno That answer, ironically enough, is out-of-date because too localized is no longer a close option (cc @LessPop?).
 
Not that that reason probably had anything to do with the why the 5 people who voted closed it
@Yuuki Yeah. I guess people shouldn't even ask questions on meta. Site policy and functionality can change.
OUR WORK HERE IS DONE

@Yuuki you know, it was not really a leak
 
Yeah, it could/probably be fake.
 
1:55 PM
It was just a parody twitter account that got picked up by mass media
 
@NateKerkhofs Parody Twitter? I thought someone found public copyrights for the logos and names.
 
Or do you really think a @Ninlendoofamerica account is accurate?
 
I don't think it originated from that account.
I like how he doesn't post the actual Twitter so I can't verify time and date.
I mean, that's probably not why he decided to not post the Twitter, but annoying nonetheless.
> The rumor originally was started by NerdLeaks, who claims to have found trademarks in Europe that show full-on logos for Pokémon Sun and Moon, presumably two new games in the franchise.

The logos and documentation look real enough, so it’s been enough for many video game new outlets to run with the story. Unfortunately, many of them have looked to Twitter TWTR -2.28% for official confirmation of the news, as a Nintendo of America Twitter account has claimed that it’s legitimate.
There it is.
The article isn't about how the leaks are from a parody account.
It's about how mass media is using the parody account as a source/confirmation as opposed to, say, NerdLeaks.
> This does not, however, mean the entire Sun/Moon leak is a hoax, necessarily. In fact, I’m still pretty convinced it’s real, despite limited (actual) sourcing.
 
Guys I'm SO excited for the announce

and causes the end of life as we know it
 
So I haven't followed the whole conversation, but I've seen enough to know that I agree with @Sterno.
 
I really don't think it'll be called sun and moon... but then I didn't think they'd call the games X and Y either
@Wipqozn context?
 
Nah, somebody else can just grab a random star in their pokeball and put it close, above towns and whatnot, for illumination.
 
I don't mean to spoil your fun, but the games are never named after pokemon in them.
 
@Polyducks @Wipqozn agrees that Lifehacks is the only StackExchange site needed.

@Sterno Yeah, that and the frequent updating doesn't mean close, and that good subjective is a thing.
Mostly the Lifehacks thing though
 
@Sterno Only if it involves
 
@Ronan Well, I don't think there'll be Pokemon literally named Sun and Moon.
 
I mean, we already have solrock and lune....thing.
 
I keep hearing SUPER HOT in my head.
I'm glad that game was short so that I can get back to Dark Souls II
 
Masochist, @Sterno

@Yuuki Oh right this is unrelated to the name of the games.
 
@Yukki It could be that one game is permanently day time and the other night time, like when you could only catch certain pokemon at different times of day
Or like team Magma vs team Aqua
only with day and night
and the night time guys are punk ravers that wear leather and latex
at this moment I'm only partially kidding...
I just hope there are some good games for the WiiU thrown in
I'm getting tired of only playing Mariomaker, treasure tracker and splatoon
The platform needs some innovation
 
@Polyducks I'd bring up Monster Hunter, but 4U is unfortunately 3DS-only.
Twilight Princess HD is coming out, but that's a remake.
 
Well, I have a 3DS. I had the version for Wii but I could only get up to the stegosauruses on the first level so there wasn't much variety

Q: Why do some steam games not work on Windows 10 - error 53?

HorusKolI've been trying to run Civilization:Beyond Earth, but either since I've upgraded to Windows 10 or the Rising Tide expansion came out (or both), I can't. Most of the times, I get the launcher asking to select between regular or AMD Mantle. No matter which I choose, the launcher will come back. ...

 
@Polyducks The Aptonoths? But those are... what?
 
2:17 PM
@Polyducks What about Bayonetta 2? The Wonderful 101? Pikmin 3? Yoshi's Wooly World?
 
Didn't even fight the Great Jaggi?
 
Xenoblade Chronicles X? I can keep going
 
@Polyducks That's like saying: I played insert platformer, but got bored when the first three steps didn't try to murder me.
 
I think you've beaten Yahtzee in "minimum amount of time spent on a game before I drop it and criticize it".

Q: I ended up eating my cat. Can I get a new one?

Williham TotlandDue to an early-game resource squeeze, my cat ended up starving to death, and was promptly eaten, much to the horror of the shelter dwellers. Having since secured my shelter better in terms of resources, I am now at a point where I'd like to have a cat once more; is there any way to obtain one? ...

@Lazers2.0 Are you hungry again or what?
 
TIL Canada is further South than France, and only 5 places above Italy in Northness ranking.
 
@Yuuki It must be clearly the first signals of the Hasbro and Nintendo collaboration. First, they will start to sell pony amiibo, then the next step will be clearly Ponymon Sun & Moon. -_-
 
@fredley Florida is about as North as Egypt. It's interesting how Northness is important but not everything
 
On a more serious point, no one seemed to worry about a ten years old trainer going to trap the creator Pokémon, so I would guess they won't notice that the sun is gone.
 
@twobugs That feels about right to me
 
@twobugs Egypt is a weird state of military rule combined with crazy civilian unrest, Florida might as well be too.
 
Really? Egypt has significant portions that are a desert, Florida is mosquito hell
 
@Yuuki what is going on here?
 
Although, granted, those are caused by different factors
 
2:36 PM
@fredley It's a compression vest, apparently for cats that are very stressed.
 
@fredley Vest you put on animals which applies pressure to their body. On pretty much every animal ever it reduces stress
Original concept came from cattle branding - cows get less freaked out when you brand them if you apply pressure
 
does Springtrap also qualifies as "Compression vest"?
 
(It's also what prompted the mother of an autistic child to create the original 'hugbox')
 
@Yuuki Is it permanent compression? Why does the cat randomly spasm?
 
It's not permanent, the vest is removable. Cat is probably just thrown off balance by it initially
If you've seen dogs with the little dog boots, similar idea
(Them being thrown off by something small, that is)
I researched this about two years ago because I had a really annoying friend who would make up false etymologies for words and "hugbox" was one of them
 
@Yuuki Huh. At least they're trying. Now if only Netflix could get some of the non-original shows I actually want to watch...
 
@Arperum I didn't get bored, I just couldn't get past them. I felt the movement controls were awkward. I did play a few boss fights, but those were mostly rolling around and waving a sword once or twice before I got stampeded to death. I guess I just wasn't very good at it.
@twobugs bayonetta felt really button-mashy. I played the demo.
 
@Polyducks but they don't even fight back?
 
@Polyducks That's the exact opposite of what it is
 
2:48 PM
All the "boss-fights" you could have possibly done was with the great jaggi in the arena. And you just have to learn to step aside/dodge when he charges. Arena fight is also different than normal fight.
 
Seriously though. If you've only gotten up to the "stegosauruses", then I can't imagine you putting more than 30 minutes into the game.
 
Okay, the pokemon show is about to start
I think
