3:00 PM
I was thinking more about MMOs as well, which would use more bandwidth
 
do they?
A lot of mmos don't really need realtime anyway
 
odd... the packet loss is persistent with me... I am thinking maybe it is my internet provider.
 
@GnomeSlice more stuff going on that needs to sync with server, so yeah
 
@GnomeSlice It couldn't hurt.
 
@GnomeSlice In heavy PC areas, they do, but that's more on the download side than upload side.
 
3:00 PM
@GnomeSlice what kind of MMOs are you talking about?
 
@Chippies MMOs, especially if they have random events and such
 
@Wipqozn I should be in an incredibly good mood today but I'm not
@Chippies idk, the kind where it's like "click on enemy to attack"
 
@GnomeSlice it has to sync with hundreds of other people and there's a lot more going on than just "click on enemy to attack"

Q: In Etrian Odyssey, is there a visual cue for spotting hidden doors?

TantalusI'm specifically referring to Etrian Odyssey 1 on the DS. Is there a visual detail that I should be on the lookout for that marks the location of secret doors? For example a certain colored plant, or detail on the floor, etc. As I am playing through now, I just use brute force by turning my part...

 
but yeah, the whole tab targeting thing was because of slow connections back in the day
 
3:02 PM
@ardaozkal working as designed.
 
if you transfer way too low amount of data, you get across hax0rs
 
@Unionhawk yusssssssssss
 
these days action rpg mmos with free aim need more bandwith
 
@GodEmperorDune morning
 
3:03 PM
@Chippies You're still just uploading what you're doing to the server, which is small compared to what the server is doing with the NPCs and what all the other PCs are doing.
 
Uuuugh
I can't believe I made the stupid mistake of writing
2
 
@GnomeSlice if you think that it'll help you, do it. Our opinions don't really matter on that (well, it can't kill you).
 
@MBraedley fair enough, most of the traffic is on the download
 
class A:
    def __init__(self):
        self.some_list = []
as
 
but the point remains - 2 mbps should be plenty of bandwidth for nearly all multiplayer games :P
 
3:04 PM
class A:
    some_list = []
 
@Chippies yeah
 
@Chippies Destiny probably needs a lot of bandwidth
 
@GnomeSlice it's not open world though, is it? everything is instanced?
 
Mario Marathon 2016 is in 48 hours!
 
instanced areas reduce the amount of bandwidth required
 
3:06 PM
@PrivatePansy to be fair it sorta works
 
@badp Until it doesn't
 
@Chippies Everything is instanced. The towns let more people into the instance but they're certainly still instanced.
 
In my case it's the difference between the code running through 30 000 iterations, and 30 000 squared iterations
 
@Chippies Yeah but i mean the worlds are pretty big
but it's probably nowhere near as many people per instance, youre right
 
@GnomeSlice but your game only cares about the instanced area you're inside
 
3:08 PM
each planet is pretty big
idk how it works tbh
 
so if I write obj.foo = function() { this }, is that this obj, or is it the outer scope's this?
 
well, I've never played Destiny, so idk how it works
 
I hate this
 
@badp The value of this is determined at runtime
 
@PrivatePansy whargarbl
 
3:09 PM
JC2 m multiplayer with 3000 people in one vame probably used a lot

Q: I am endlessly stuck in the Memory Corridor of Assassin's Creed: Rogue. How do I fix this?

user3460322Yesterday, in Assassin's Creed: Rogue, I completed the memory Cold Fire and subsequently met with Haytham Kenway to start Non Nobis Domine, the next memory (and as IGN tells me, the second-last). I was immensely excited to see what was going to happen next and thus skipped the cutscene halfway th...

Q: Do KOTH maps skew your career average numbers?

Mr.RichwayDo your stats get tallied at the end of a round in King of the Hill style maps or at the end of the match? If it's per match this could potentially throw off career average numbers since the matches are typically 2x longer than a normal attack/defend match.

 
Is this helpful?
 
@PrivatePansy groan
@PrivatePansy somewhat. It means that if I don't know how my code is called, I'll never know if I can trust this to be aliased to the outer scope's, or if I don't have to var self = this
 
@badp You can use fat arrow functions instead
Fat arrow function inherit the outer scope's this
 
3:14 PM
@PrivatePansy wait those are different?

@GnomeSlice Everyone has days like that, and after some of your worries last night it's completely understandable. It wouldn't hurt to speak to your psychologist if you want to, but I don't think there's anything wrong with you.
 
thanks for the advice
I know you guys don't really wanna hear about it but the last time I tried to talk to somebody offline about it they just laughed and told a bunch of people
 
@Wipqozn you are actually a pretty nice turtle. You showed that you were worthy of my vote.
 
So thanks for being cool and not banning me
 
3:17 PM
@GnomeSlice thats a dick move
 
yeah no shit
Not talking to that person any more
 
@GodEmperorDune yeah, totally
 
I deleted my tinder account last night
So I guess I'm committed lol
 
@badp Also remember that the value of thiscan be modified at run time via the Function.prototype.apply and Function.prototype.call functions
 
@GnomeSlice Some people are assholes
@ardaozkal thanks
@GnomeSlice Oh my
well I hope this all goes great for your gnome! Really happy for you.
 
3:20 PM
@GnomeSlice i think its cool that you are taking the relationship seriously. it bodes well for you and the relationship both
 
Don't think I've ever seen people celebrate someone else deleting their Tinder account
 
@Waterseas well, it is a sign of determination
 
Perhaps
 
@Waterseas does it not fill you with determination?
 
Nope, it's not spaghetti

Q: Help minecraft pe 0.15.0 why can't I connect with my friend who is in a different house connect from Xbox invites

MinecraftQueen11I'm trying to connect with my friend who is in a different house on different wifi. It's minecraft pe update 0.15.0 she's on a world and invited me (we both have Xbox accounts) I click and accept but it sits and locating server forever it never connects please help

 
@GodEmperorDune I understood that reference
 
@Wipqozn i do like being about to make a good refrance without having played the original game
 
@Chippies I just checked my internet speed. speed www.speedtest.net/?test-2 says 3.50 Mbps download and 1.21 for upload, do you think it is good enough speed for gaming?
 
@GodEmperorDune You haven't played Undertale?
 
@Wipqozn nope
 
3:29 PM
PLENTY OF TIME TO FINISH UNDERTALE
 
begun the @modqozn abuse has
5
 
P sure it maxes out at either 1000 hours or 365 days
Or something
 
@GodEmperorDune plaaaaaaaaay it
@Unionhawk 365 days iirc
Can't remember if it's one of the controls you can override by sending the post request directly
 
How long was @Unikitty banned for?
 
@KevinvanderVelden 365 days
 
3:34 PM
i don't even own it
 
Only play it if you like bullet hells, or particularly care about story @GodEmperorDune
 
Site bans might be different
 
also protip: don't ping the trolls
 
Site bans max at 365
 
@Unionhawk No autocomplete = no ping right?
 
3:34 PM
Also I think all these stars means I should go ahead and suspend @GodEmperorDune
 
@Unionhawk without cm interference
 
Barring like, developer input or something
 
@fredley too late i already pinged @fredley and @Wipqozn
 
@fredley cm or dev, I want to imagine devs manually imposing arbitrary bans at cm request because that's funnier to imagine
 
3:36 PM
But that's probably not at all how it works
 
@GodEmperorDune Really though
my really though can work in two ways!
Oh man, that's great
 
@fredley i think that's a COPPA ban, which is different
 
@GodEmperorDune aren't coppa bans just delete this user?
 
@GodEmperorDune p sure coppa users get destroyed
 
3:37 PM
@GodEmperorDune No, COPPA accounts are purged completely (all traces of the account permanently removed)
 
Like, cm destroyed
 
@Unionhawk i thought they left some remnant where they couldn't login until they were old enough

Q: Best storage option for performance 2 SSD's and 1HDD?

GamerBRAZILi have been searching a lot about what is the best storage option for me, and i arrived to the following conclusion: One 120GB SSD for OS and applications (antivirus, etc) One 240 GB (or bigger) SSD for personal files (word archives, etc) and games (specially for games with big loading times) ...

 
@GodEmperorDune that'd be storing age and email
 
@GodEmperorDune If they do it's not kept anywhere visible
 
3:38 PM
@GodEmperorDune supposing this is true, the user in question with a 10 year ban is 3 years old.
 
Yeah, the point of COPPA is that you have to get special permission to store children's personal info
 
probably not worth the science
 
So by merely keeping the account around, the site is breaking the law
 
@Sterno get your oldest kid to make an account
 
@PrivatePansy Yeah, it's not illegal for <13 year olds to use internet sites, but they must have parental consent collected in a very careful way, and complying with the regulation is a huge PITA, so only companies that profit from children bother to go through with it
e.g. Disney etc
 
3:39 PM
@Unionhawk well if its not a coppa ban, that user REALLY dun goofd
 
Yes
 
also
if it was a coppa ban
would that mean that the user was 3?
 
We just covered this

@Waterseas It's a Donald Trump quote about Mexicans, turned into Internet copypasta

@TrentHawkins It's unfortunate ^^; Though am definitely happy with the merch that was the cause of the break. Wearing the shirt I got right now
 
@PrivatePansy oh no
 
@KevinvanderVelden oh yes
 
If I moved to Canada, first thing I would do is apologize for our political circus back in the US.
Second I would blame Wipqozn.

Q: When will mincraft xbox one edition get shields, command blocks ect?

user25535Please answer this literal. I really want a shield for pvp, command blocks for what they can do, and a banner to show people my skills. Will an update happen for any of these?

 
True though
 
(Dratini)
 
what can I do to improve this answer?
 
cowbell.
 
Don't think you can, just think the question itself is a poor one
 
@ardaozkal Thank you for making me know about this site.
The buildup is so lame, but those last 2 man.
 
Well crap, now I need to try
 
4:32 PM
@StrixVaria Happy to let others know about it :P I actually have more upvotes in drawception than SE combined. (1xp = 1 like - yes, that is a nazi).
 
@Waterseas don't know if the question itself is poor, there just isnt hardly any info out there for it
 
I'll get rid of that picture today tho
 
Canada.jpg
 
I don't think it's an answerable question honestly, or, rather, the answer to the question is too obvious to be considered an answer, as odd as that sounds
 
Just met @SHAQ They said no cell phone photography. I thought he didn't see me recording until I watched this video. https://t.co/W3RKPi9Kk7
Ahahaha
 
4:37 PM
What am I looking at
 
@Waterseas watch the vid
the guy meats shaq, the basketballer, gets a chance for a photo
 
I only see a static image
 
oh
wait until page fully loads
twitter derps alot
 
Nope, was IE's fault
Pretty good video
 
It is taking every ounce of willpower I have not to ask questions about this game.
> Is it actually possible to ban assault weapons sales?
 
4:41 PM
"i take legs (it smells like mtt)" what the actual hell
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz "game" is a bit generous
 
> If I think and pray enough times or fast enough, will the shootings stop?
@KutuluMike yes. Which is why I am resisting the temptation.
 
I kept clicking "think" and I lost.
 
And instead posing my questions here on the bridge rather than trolling the hot network list.
 
what that says about the author, I won't speculate
 
4:42 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Hah. oh boy.
 
@KutuluMike you have to alternate think and pray.
 
ah.
so it's a fantasy game. got it
 
@KutuluMike Now, now.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I wonder how many "friends" I can lose by sharing this on Facebook.
 
I mean at least it's better than that "how can I 100% Sandy hook shooting sim" question from when that was a thing that got destroyed
For definitions of better
 
4:44 PM
Does that still exist?
 
@KutuluMike I'd call it a game. There are actions to take, a time limit, and a score at the end
 
Well the point of the Sandy Hook game was not to be fun
 
oh wow
whole lot of quality and best games
I asked a genuine question about one of those.
 
Why
 
because I wondered the answer
and the question isn't racist or clickbait
 
4:51 PM
@Unionhawk and still better than those assholes from /r/conspiracy that called the families of the victims accusing them of being liars, and being in on the sandy hook "hoax"
 
Why do people in drawception sometimes write the entire sentence in the image
 
@Waterseas PIO
"Pass it on"
 
Right, it defeats the entire point of the game
Also this game is actually the most amazing thing ever: drawception.com/game/RFAyW3xESS/…
 
@PrivatePansy Just think, by this time next year this will be a quote from the president of the USA!

Q: Do Zarya's barriers protect against knockback effects?

DanmakuGrazerThe few times I've faced Zarya in Quick Play, I noticed one or two times that Lucio's sound blast didn't seem to push her back while she had her barrier on, but given how finicky pushback is in Overwatch, I'm not sure if that was because of the barrier of because of general wonkiness. Do Zarya's...

Q: Where can you see match history for competitive CS:GO games?

payMost games have match history, a breakdown of kills/deaths/assists of you and your team, the other team, and other game details. I don't see anywhere in CS:GO where something like this is available, so is there any source that contains this information?

@PrivatePansy so, airplanes?

@murgatroid99 passenger carrying drones, apparently
But really. Manned UAV.
 
@ardaozkal That one got so derailed\
 
yeah :P
but tbh the one before derail wasn't that clear
 
I'm still really curious what one of the ones I had to draw was supposed to be
 
woah
I bought a book today
...turns out to be stolen
...in 1993
 
@PrivatePansy I guess that's what we get for using "UAV" to mean "remotely piloted aircraft"
 
6:01 PM
@Waterseas did you start playing too? What is your username?

Q: How do I play with my friend on LAN in Minecraft

LavadrakeBoth me and my friend's LANs wont allow us to join a LAN server together. We have tried /publish, and some other stuff, but it won't work. It also won't tell us the IP adress. In addition the Java script times out trying to connect and the publisher of the world's Java would not connect at all. ...

 
@ardaozkal That was drawn later but the game ended earlier.
 
6:55 PM
ah
 
Does it intentionally put people who can draw well together or something?
 
@StrixVaria yes
vet games requires level 20 (if I can remember correctly), you'll see them in queue once you hit 20
they cost 2 credit to create
 
@ardaozkal lol i don't think i'll ever hit 20
 
You can opt in to vet games only if you want:
@GodEmperorDune took me a few weeks to get to 20
shouldn't be that hard
 
@ardaozkal i'm not sure it will keep my interest that long
