that moment when you realize there's a pizza place close to where you are

and it's better than standard takeaway

but not that good

and definitely not good enough to remain open for one more month or so

it's saturday evening and there were two guys inside, one was watching Netflix, the other doing word searches

then you order a pizza and one tells to the other, "hey dad can you slice me some ham"

it's kinda heart wrenching

IT ALMOST REMINDS ME OF @TWOBUGS' STREAMS

Q: What is the point of having more than one Mii?

In Miitomo, you can register up to 101 Miis (according to it's in-game FAQ). What is the point of having more than your avatar? The other's don't seem to hang around your room, even randomly, and they don't interact with your friend's Miis either. Why would I add more Miis, either by creation o...

Alright, finally finished modding KSP 1.1!

Yuuki

Found a big collection of vinyls. Some are empty.

Sterno

@badp That was a really long moment

Yuuki

@AshleyNunn Found a collection of commemorative medallions of the Prime Ministers of Canada.

1867-1969, short four of them.

RedRiderX

@Yuuki Well some are doubles

Yuuki

One common theme I'm finding in all these storage units: Star Trek novels.

Every one seems to have a selection of them.

Fluttershy

@GnomeSlice @StrixVaria The Battleborn open beta is live on PS4.

Wipqozn

@Sterno That's fine

Yuuki

Wow, this unit has a lot of vinyls.

SaintWacko

18:34

@Yuuki Wait, what are you doing?

StrixVaria

@Fluttershy Ehhh

All these other shooters don't even look remotely as interesting as Overwatch.

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria Agreed.

Battleborn is more moba than Overwatch, so I'll likely end up playing both.

Yuuki

@SaintWacko Cleaning up old storage units.

SaintWacko

@Yuuki That sounds like fun

Yuuki

Yuuki

Dad now owns a storage business

SaintWacko

@Yuuki Man, that would be awesome

Yuuki

We're clearing out delinquent ones to make room for new customers.

SaintWacko

I'm actually really jealous

I would have so much fun going through old storage containers

And I'd end up with so much more junk :D

Yuuki

Several Battlestar Galactica cassettes.

We already found two turntables.

Gonna test them out later with the vinyls we've found.

GnomeSlice

18:39

@Fluttershy Is that a shooter or a moba

oh

Well I've already got Paragon

StrixVaria

@GnomeSlice The actual gameplay is shooter, not like Paragon at all.

GnomeSlice

Oh yeah?

Yuuki

Stargate on cassette.

GnomeSlice

Hm. That makes it sound interesting.

First successful launch in 1.1!

@Yuuki How did you end up looking at this stuff?

@AshleyNunn Dad now owns a storage business, we're clearing out delinquent units.

Trent Hawkins

@Yuuki That... might be worth a surprising amount...

ardaozkal

Yuuki

@TrentHawkins Never mind, false alarm. 1998 and 2000.

Chippies

So, I have an email confirming that I had created a Hi-Rez account 5 days ago (I'm assuming I did it when I signed up for Paladin's beta), but when I try to log in or recover my username, my email is not used for any of the accounts

Yuuki

They have racecar drivers on the label though.

ardaozkal

Hmm, that might be valuable.

Better not throw them.

StrixVaria

19:10

I will say that Battleborn looks a big step up from Paladins.

user15026

@Yuuki Huh, very neat.

Chippies

@StrixVaria aren't they different genres though?

Trent Hawkins

Oh, yeah... if it were a vintage coke... if you find any crystal Pepsi; I know of a guy....

Chippies

that being said, I know very little about Paladins

StrixVaria

@Chippies They have some similarities.

Paladins doesn't even seem to know what it wants to be.

Battleborn looks like a game.

Yuuki

19:11

Weird Al's UHF.

Chippies

@StrixVaria from what I read, Paladins is a MOBA? It doesn't look like one, but I guess it is?

StrixVaria

@Chippies There are no minions or lanes.

I wouldn't call it a MOBA.

Chippies

At least in the trailers, battleborn is more decided in what it is

StrixVaria

Battleborn does have minions and lanes and still isn't really a MOBA either.

Not like Paragon.

Chippies

from what I have seen about Paladins, it seems like a Overwatch style shooter, but I saw it classified as a moba of sorts

@StrixVaria Battleborn is more of a tower defense, I'd say

Fluttershy

19:12

@Chippies It's an Overwatch style shooter, but more like a moba than Overwatch.

StrixVaria

@Chippies Yeah, that sounds like an apt description from what I've seen.

Fluttershy

I just played a few rounds in the open beta.

Chippies

@Fluttershy yeah, that's the vibe I'm getting from the info I've seen

and apparently my email and/or username aren't valid to register a hi-rez account

I'm beginning to lose faith in this

Fluttershy

What happens if you try to recovery your password?

Chippies

I don't remember registering an account when I signed up for beta, but I have an email confirming that I do. When use the "Forgot username" option, it says my email isn't registered

when I try to register, it says my player name or email address isn't valid

StrixVaria

19:16

Is Battleborn going to be F2P?

Chippies

I think that's the idea

but with all these games coming out and selling for cash in EA, it's hard to remember for sure

StrixVaria

Oh, no, looks like it's Overwatch's model actually.

Given my recent experience with Orcs Must Die Unchained, that actually sounds like a good thing.

Chippies

OH MY GOD HI-REZ, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

so I tried registering on their website instead of the Smite launcher

after battling with usernames already existing and whatnot

it finally went through(?)

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria Nope.

Chippies

instead of confirming that I registered, it just moved me to login page

so I try to login with the info I just registered with

and it doesn't do anything, not even an error

just refreshed the page without actually logging me in

why do I even bother

well, probably because I dl'd 8gb of a game that I can't even try

Chippies

@Fluttershy what's wrong with darkroot basin?

Fluttershy

@Chippies It has the Blighttown effect for me. The game starts to slow down.

Chippies

@Fluttershy are you using dsfix?

I haven't had any trouble with Blighttown or any other place, but I've never played without dsfix

StrixVaria

The bosses in Gungeon are a little rough for the complete piece of shit weapons I've been getting on the first level.

Fluttershy

@Chippies Nope! Completely forgot to install that when I reinstalled the game.

@StrixVaria Yeah, they can be rough. :(

Chippies

@Fluttershy well, there's your problem then :P

dsfix should be included in the base install of the game

Fluttershy

DSFix 2.3?

i know it doesn't Really make a difference, but it makes the sums more difficult

@djsmiley2k Getting paid monthly is the road towards living paycheck to paycheck.

it was cool and i could manage money niely

Just multiply your paycheck by 52/12 (or 26/12 if you're paid bi-weekly)

Chippies

some PSU's just have noisy fans

especially if it's old'ish

GnomeSlice

21:49

it's the controller

it buzzes when it's spinning up and down, or something

and it's constantly spinning up and down because it's dumb

Chippies

higher grade psu's these days turn the fan off under certain load these days

GnomeSlice

yeah this one does

that's when it makes the noise

Chippies

@GnomeSlice well that doesn't sound very good

You

Hello
It's me.

GnomeSlice

when the fan is just running it's fine

Chippies

21:49

unless you're somehow right on the edge of the limit where the fan has to kick in

GnomeSlice

I guess

Chippies

in which case it's shitty and probably bad for the psu

the fan is better off either being off or on, not constantly switching on and off

that's not good for the fan motor

badp

right, so I guess someone who really did know what they were doing would probably remove the controller and just feed the fan full power at all times, like you can do with case fans, but opening up those boxes is super dangerous, so I cannot blame anyone for not attempting the feat

Chippies

do you know the wattage of the psu?

GnomeSlice

Chippies

21:51

do you have an intel or amd cpu?

badp

the good news is that you know what piece of your computer needs to be replaced first ~

GnomeSlice

@badp Yeah my dad said he could do that

feed it power with a diode or something and add a capacitor I kind of stopped listening

@badp even if they not plugged in?

badp

mind you

Chippies

unless the psu is ancient and kicks the fan in at very low wattages, you shouldn't reach whatever the limit is without running any demanding tasks

GnomeSlice

Chippies
