Q: Rename [sw-battlefront-2015] to [star-wars-battlefront-2015]

ThunderforgeIf you are asking a question and trying to add a tag for one of the Star Wars: Battlefront games and type in star-wars-battlefront, you get the following tags: star-wars-battlefront star-wars-battlefront-2 star-wars-battlefront-2-2017 What you don't get is sw-battlefront-2015, which I think i...

Q: Brick Rigs game breaking graphics glitch

Emerald Ocy EmOciI opened up Brick Rigs today and there are green and pink bars flashing and moving across the screen like so: Oh gosh, they don't even show in the screenshot... Anyway, there has only been one update since I last played, a few days back. I have no explanation. Anyone get something that might he...

 
@Unionhawk Service Unavailable?
 
12:19 AM
500 moons then finish darker side of the moon which awards a multimoon
Basically half of the 880 run
Like a 4 hour speedrun
 
12:34 AM
There's also 100% which includes a bunch of bullshit
Like you have to buy every item
And complete every toadette achievement
Capture every enemy...
Yeah
 
Discord is down again? Ugh
 
1:13 AM
I have been playing Dark Souls 2 for the past few hours, and I have made minimum progress. I am like "WILL YOU SWING YOUR SWORD FASTER, OR DO YOU LIKE BLEEDING?!?!?"
 
@Unionhawk No, that's Internal Server Error. I think Service Unavailable is 403? Or is that Forbidden?
@TheMattbat999 Don't button mash in Dark Souls unless you want quick trips to the bonfire.
 
@Yuuki really? Gosh, I was hitting RT so fast it wasn't even funny. Seemed like a good idea, since the enemies were swinging their weapons around like crazy.
 
@TheMattbat999 No, Dark Souls is about pacing yourself and attacking carefully.
Sometimes, I go whole minutes without attacking.
 
@Yuuki ah. Either way, my first great idea after getting to the first town was to go to the place with the giant knights. I was doing good (if running and jumping like a maniac is "good") until I ran into the boss room. He knocked me off a cliff in 3 seconds (no exaggeration)
 
Tower of Flame?
 
1:20 AM
@Yuuki yeah, that place
 
There's switches you can activate to close the gaps in the platform.
I don't know if they fixed the AI but you used to be able to knock him off if you knew what you were doing.
 
@Yuuki 403 is forbidden
 
@TheMattbat999 as soon as you push the button, you're committed; pressing it more won't help. But attacks in DaS are relatively slow, and have a wind-up and wind-down in addition to the attack proper. so it's all about timing and positioning your attacks.
Even fast weapons aren't fast enough to button-mash with, and most weapons are not fast.
 
1:46 AM
I pretty much always play Dark Souls games with a shield and regular size sword, and I spent a lot of time locked onto enemies and circling them with my shield up, waiting for an opening to hit them.
Also rolling. Rolling is very useful
 
Dark Souls is better when you stop using a shield as a crutch and learn to dodge. Harder at first, then easier
 
I got 100% in DS2 with that setup, so I think it's fine either way
 
Dark Souls is better when you play with no weapon and no armor
And never go human
 
I got 2 questions on Dark Souls 2: a-why did I start at lv13? And b-how do I level up?
 
@TheMattbat999 Your level is just the sum of your stats.
You level up by talking to the lady wearing green near the main bonfire in the town.
 
1:55 AM
Hmm I'm like 90 pages behind on reading club
Hmm
 
@StrixVaria oh ok.
 
Now you're making me want to play Dark Souls
 
Don't do it play Wolfenstein instead
Or overwatch
Or destiny
Or dark souls I don't care
 
Also, I smacked the pure white knight thing. Is that bad?
In the forest of giants
 
My computer (and the Fall Creator's Update) hates me.
 
2:08 AM
Destiny got boring super fast
 
I need to get some time for Wolfenstein this week tbh
 
@TheMattbat999 If you want to live, probably. I remember that guy being pretty strong
 
@murgatroid99 I am looking into it. I think he is called "The Pursuer", according to this walkthrough I am looking at
 
The Pursuer has super dark armor. I thought you were talking about the Heide Knight sitting next to a tree
 
Oh. I just seen it talking of his dark armour. I guess it is the Heide Knight, then
 
2:34 AM
Hmm, I can tell I'm going to barf later tonight.
I had three cocktails and they were all delicious.
Not hammered but I definitely feel a buzz.
 
Solidarity, 3x Christmas Ale
 
Lessee, I had an"East India Trading Co.", "North Garden", and "Almond Brother".
 
The only beer I drink is IBC Root Beer
 
So between me and @Unionhawk, we have craft beer, cocktails, and spirits covered. We just need one more Bridge regular as a wino and we'll have the whole alcohol spectrum covered.

TXNSI just downloaded this game and it shows the beginning of the maker and stuff. Now after that the screen is black but I can hear the music in the background. Is it still downloading?

Okay, going offline so I can watch the live-action non-Disney Mulan movie.

Q: Minecraft 1.12 Chain command blocks won't work

BobOk, so I'm trying to make chains of command blocks, but for some reason they won't work. I've made sure the arrows are facing the right way, the first one isn't a chain block, and I don't get what's going on. Help!!

 
 
@Yuuki this is the only comic that reading it like a manga actually makes sense too
 
Hmmm...

@GodEmperorDune wait, there's such a thing?

Do we flag posts advocating piracy?
 
@John yes, there's a close reason for that so you can flag as off-topic
 
It's an answer
those don't have an off-topic reason
NAA i guess
meh, just used VLQ
 
@John ahhhh, yeh would do. i'd go the next step and use a custom flag saying it's advocates piracy
which answer this this?

Q: Can all players utilize DLC content in custom battles/Mortal Empires if only one player has it?

santyclauseIf, say, the host of a custom multiplayer battle or a Mortal Empires campaign owns every single DLC in the game, will it be shared to other players in that match, even if they don't own it themselves? I would like to play the Mortal Empires campaign Total War: Warhammer II with a friend of mine ...

 
@Avery needs one more vote =p

11:44 AM
Uhm...
 
@PrivatePansy what's the problem?
 
@Memor-X Live action Beauty and the Beast is somehow anime
 
oh wait, they have the live action as anime
 
It's not even the animated original
They also list a Back to the Future box set further down
 
@PrivatePansy ok, beauty and the best is one thing because that has an animated version but back to the future doesn't
unless taletell released their game as a film
 
12:06 PM
The live action Beauty and the Beast film would have been a lot better if they got a good singer to play Belle.
Emma Watson's singing is really flat and shitty.
Not flat like off key, flat like devoid of emotion.
 
@Avery that's such a typical pirated setup format. I know, because my friend sometimes visits torrent sites

holy shit i'm loosing my shit. @StrixVaria face has changed
 
😍
😍🔫
 
12:20 PM
@badp wait, so amazon sells food but only if you pay a subscription?
 
yes, and there are delivery costs and whatnot
even if pasta has a preeeeeeeeeetty long shelf life
and (in that case) doesn't require any refrigeration
so for now the most reasonable way to get some of those formats remains "in your bag as you fly back from home"
.__.
@KevinvanderVelden will pay for this
 
I won't pay for this but maybe it is something you could do? 1000en1smaken.nl/pasta/italiaanse-pasta.html
 
this looks like tourist traps
 
(I have no idea about italian food if this is anything you'd want to buy and if it's a good price)
 
12:36 PM
the prices are awful and one of the two brands untrustworthy
"l'arco dei sapori" has virtually no internet presence and I never heard of it
"Rustichella d'Abbruzzo" seems more legit but it'll have to be something special to be worth those prices
the current mainstream-hipster pasta brand in italy is Rummo
from my last trip from Italy I brought some square spaghetti
they're preeeetty good
luckily I'll have easier access to a Jumbo once I move
 
1:39 PM
They don't sell pasta in the Netherlands?
 
1:54 PM
@StrixVaria I misread that as pants at first
 
@StrixVaria they do, and some of it is good, but I occasionally wish for some more variety
 
Have you made your own pasta?
I haven't but I hear that's the best.
 
nope
I'm actually pretty awful at cooking
My trademark is adding way too much water
my culinary height atm is throwing pre-sliced mushrooms into a heated oiled pan with garlic and parsley, then throwing that onto the pasta
 
AGH
I HATE PEOPLE
there's this kid in class
always going around like "I've got best english in class"
yet he never proved that
we had a grading test last wednesday and he didn't solve it, said "I'll do it on weekend" and teacher was meh about it but accepted
And now in the class whatsapp he's asking for the answers.
and just
I'm fine if they want to cheat, but don't fucking brag.
 
2:13 PM
Give him all the wrong answrs
 
I like the way you think
let me grab my answer sheet
 
don't
don't intentionally sabotage him
you don't need this shit
he doesn't need this shit
either you actually help him #humblebrag or just don't comment on it
 
@badp see this guy is problematic.
 
(flashback ripple)
over 10 years ago, in a hot summer day, granmps badp was undergoing his end-of-highschool exam with his classmates
 
he always comes to school late by like 2-3 hours, no one gets angry over it for some reason, even though if I were to do it just one day I'd have every teacher attacking me
 
2:19 PM
our external teacher for science gave us a question that must have caught a few of us unprepared
 
he's a jerk, intervenes to other's talks, says dumb or hateful stuff
 
our internal teacher for history and philosophy noticed that we were struggling
 
And he threatened me before. Twice.
 
so she quietly approached one of our better students and asked for a tip
he intentionally gave out a wrong answer
but she didn't know better

2:21 PM
so she started pacing around the room like she is wont to do, quietly murmuring this sentence over and over
when she passed by me, I must have misheard them, and dismissed the tip, since I did know the answer
other classmates weren't as lucky
I don't think physical harm came to this person, but he got ostracized pretty hardcore
now I don't actually know if the misleading was intentional but
 
you know what?
it's not worth it
 
yup
 
forwards screenshot to teacher instead
 
do not
just let it go Avery. It's not worth it
 
ugh whatever
I won't do it
 
2:26 PM
I know it sucks but it's not necessarily cheating to ask your classmates for help for your homework
in a test it is
 
"give me the answers" is not asking for help
it is cheating.
And it is not a homework, it's a grading test.
And he'll just trying to get a full score to brag around.
 
he's clearly got an unusual level of protection from his teachers
 
well whatever
I'll let it go this one time
 
at the end of the day all you really need out of high school is your own education and your own access to university
 
yes but you do know that I risk my freedom because of the injustice right?
I just can't stand it
 
2:46 PM
@Avery ?
from what you described it's more likely that the teacher will snitch onto you
since it's highly irregular for a teacher to be cool with someone regularly missing out on hours of lectures
 
@badp turkey stuff
and internet stufcf
 
if you can manage to get a BSc you'll be doing laps around him in terms of everything
and you'll probably be able to spread your wings and study abroad
and eventually do what you like where you like with whom you like
I don't know if this vision of the future is enough to carry you through these times :(
 
fingers crossed
 
but in terms of what happens after high school is over
the only thing anyone will care about is that you did finish high school
grades won't matter
teachers won't matter
classmates won't matter
the drama won't matter
all you need to do is to go past this hurdle
and hopefully learn a thing or two
 
eh
 
2:53 PM
that is the second thing that matters of high school: this is probably the last time in your life you'll have someone explain history or science or philosophy or literature to you

so if you care about being a well-rounded person, this is the chance :)

this is so cute and gross at the same time

like 3× what they should be
 
 
2:59 PM
even when it comes to university
the #1 most important thing you can do is build connections
bond with smart people
join students' associations
 
yeah I'm aware
connections really do come in handy
 
hang out and hack your heart out
when your friends get hired and they get offered referral bonuses, or they come across job offers, they'll think of you. probably :)
 
@Wipqozn pants are illegal here, little known fact
 
@KevinvanderVelden I thought that was bathrobes with an hoodie
too decadent or nice or something
 
Wait those aren't pants?
Huh
 
3:02 PM
@badp oh yes I'm totally aware of that
 
I'm just trying to give you something to look forward to
I know you're already really on top of your social connections game
you might even get away without getting a degree
 
@badp quite useless if you leave the country after graduating
(not useless in all cases)
 
@Chippies she's in Turkey. I don't think they'll find good local jobs.
 
getting a job in another country is complicated when you're not in a schengen zone
 
it depends on the employer. The big ones will work out the kinks
my turkish teammate didn't have a hard time at least
there are however complications around those times when you're in between jobs.
you can make things a bit easier by finding a partner there, but now you're leaving my field of expertise.

Q: Everything is messed up with SEUS 11.0

Unknown UserI am running Minecraft Java Edition 1.12.2 with the latest version of OptiFine. I downloaded SEUS-v11.0.zip and put it into my shaderpacks folder. I opened up Minecraft, selected it as my shader, and opened up a world. This is what I got: Can you help me fix it? I am on a Mac.

 
oh no it's an incremental

Jeez, the new permission model is 6.0?
And we still have apps that don't use it?
This is why we can't have nice things
 
I'm dying to play a capitalist game about communism
 
@Unionhawk so many mobiles and tablet still ship with android 6 or 5 or even 4
it's criminal
 
I'm pretty sure it's actually a crime to ship with android 4.0 in 2017
 
my sister's phone is still not 6.0 apparently
 
RIP my beta access though, RIP my having 8.1.0
I mean I guess I still have it but that phone can't connect to the mobile network
 
user15026
4:53 PM
I miss having a phone with 7.1
 
@Unionhawk considered the bluetooth bugs anything older than a few months is criminal
maybe one month
if your "security patch level" isn't at least "september 2017" you're fucked
(and it should be "october 2017")
 
yep
 
@Avery I don't even know if my mother's mobile is 6.0
probably just 5.0
 
The good news about going to a pixel is this phone will count for trade-in later down the line
 
samsung mobiles are a blight on humankind
 
4:57 PM
since verizon can merrily refurbish and resell it
yes
 
@badp guess I'm fucked

@badp Security simply isn't a concern for most buyers, and even if it is, it's not that easy to find out if a phone will receive quick security updates.
 
@MadScientist yup, phones in stores are not as up to date as they could be
so it's really hard to tell
buyers would care if they were properly informed
 
5:03 PM
@Avery You know I really should be reading instead of holding down a potato button
God dammit
 
just put stickers that say "you can't use bluetooth and wifi on this mobile without getting your nudes leaked"
and people will start caring
 
@Unionhawk jkshfgska I should read too

Uhhoh, there's a new incremental?
 
I mean it's old
And I'm pretty sure both @Avery and I installed it for meme factors lol
