@Ash Crazy talk!
Although I can be really bad for that too at times. Mostly if I'm reading a book.
@Avery stop reading books, they're bad for your health

Obviously, I've read a ton and look where that has gotten me ;)

@Unionhawk That furry bastard

Except maybe the joja mart guy
 
12:38 AM
Literally every post on the front page of Reddit is about net neutrality
It's kind of glorious to see
All these subreddits are working together presumably since the format of each is pretty similar
 
Belgium government has decided that lootboxes are gambling, and wants to try to get a European law to flat out ban selling lootboxes(or anything in game where you don't know what you'll get)
 
@Arperum China's been hounding Blizzard to reveal the probability distributions of their lootboxes.

Q: What is a segment in a game called that must be completed very quickly?

Vilx-I was talking with a friend of mine about a platformer I just finished and I incorrectly referred to some segments of it as "speedruns". Basically you have to complete the segment very quickly and precisely, or you need to start over. An typical example would be running from a flood. Fumble for m...

 
12:59 AM
I know I've posted this before, but it's such a good idea I wanted to post it again, since I recently rewatched it
cc @fredley
 
TIL my contractor doesn't paint. Period. So it's my responsibility to find a painter to fix the kitchen, dining room, stairwell, and two bedrooms that are affected by construction once the project is over.
Because of course it had to get worse.
That's at least 4 different paint colors, also.

Anybody wanna see a hairless pig?
 
millennials these days
 
I'm starting to get awful tired of house renos.
 
@TheMattbat999 Aren't pigs known for being relatively hairless?
 
cc: @Wipqozn @GodEmperorDune @Yuuki
 
1:25 AM
@Yuuki well, how about a "bald"pig? Idk, mine have hair
 
We may have a contractor soon, too, @strix
 
@TheMattbat999 Not saying they don't have hair, they just don't have a lot.
 
@Yuuki pigs actually have a ton of really hard hair on them
it's just short, so you don't really notice from distance
 
@Yuuki I meant mine have alot of hair compared to others, and it is very noticeable.
 
@Yuuki i think that's only cartoon pigs
 
1:27 AM
We discovered this morning that our shower pan is leaking, and has been for a couple years, probably
So there's a bunch of water damage around the shower
 
@Chippies hue
 
@Chippies I swear I seen someone post this here before.... oh well
 
Especially in the guest bedroom closet that butts up against it, which we didn't notice since we never use it
 
@SaintWacko I'm so sorry.
 
1:30 AM
@TheMattbat999 probably. Not much hasn't been posted here at some point or another
 
@TheMattbat999 yeah this looks familiar to me too
 
bread dog bread dog dog bread dog bread bread dog bread dog dog bread dog bread
 
@GodEmperorDune yeah... it may haven't been the same pics, but same joke
 
@StrixVaria Yeah... and insurance isn't going to cover any of it
 
user15026
Wheeee I should have left a half hour ago and I still have to complete some stuff it's so late aaaaaa
 
1:34 AM
@Lazers2.0 This is why generic terminology questions are so bad.
 
And now there are three different answers, all describing three different mechanics.
@SaintWacko Ouchie. House renos suck. Especially when they're not planned.
 
@Frank yay, HNQ here it comes
 
@TheMattbat999 is this the hairless pig? was it hairless before or after it was killed and the hair was burnt off?
 
@Chippies hairless after. We scalded it, scraped hair off, then burned the fine hairs.

2:19 AM
@Frank don't we close those as per @badp's meta post?
Since it isn't about one game?
 
@Dragonrage I've tried, but there's almost always user backlash about it.

Q: Starting mode in Minecraft

AMAZING MC GAMER2549So i'm making a server lobby and I want it so when a player joins it puts them into gamemode 2/adventure mode. So they can't break blocks. Now I need help because i want this to work with only none opped players.

 
We had a meta discussion about it, and established a practice for those questions. If the user doesn't like it, they can take it to meta
 
@Dragonrage Except there doesn't seem to be enough support to close them.
 
@Frank i thought your comment was nice and thoughtful
 
2:25 AM
As I've never heard of that definition at all.
Ew. The entire tag is full of opinionated and useless junk.
 
@Frank yep
 
@Fluttershy @Chippies Got my first base 300 drop from an engram!
 
And even after this question got closed, it got reopened, meta be damned, it seems.
 
@Frank ugh
 
I think I might make a meta about it, but I don't really want to work up a proper head of outrage over it tonight.
 
2:33 AM
@Yuuki nice. You wanna play some destiny 2 tonight? I'm kinda under geared but I hit 20 last week on my hunter when I had a chance to play
 
@Dragonrage Yeah, sure! Are you already in a clan?
 
no im not in a clan yet
I also just got the quest for my 3rd subclass for hunter so I'll unlock that
 
2:44 AM
@Frank I will bring it up on META shortly
 
@TheMattbat999 I would recommend against it. I don't think you completely understand the issues at play.
 
@Frank well, I decided against it anyway since I am playing Dark souls 2 right nos
 
I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is not asking to define one thing about one game and as such has been determined to be off topic on this site by the community. — Dragonrage 1 min ago
 
2:57 AM
hoping on d2 now @Yuuki
gonna unlock my other ability real quick
 
I think you'll need to ask @Fluttershy for a clan invite.
 
alright. i believe i have him added on bnet

Q: Lydia has disappeared after death, where is she?

Lonely SoulLydia has died after getting killed by a frost troll. She is gone I don't have a home to return to to find her. I have checked her tomb location and she is not there. What do I do to get her back?

 
@Yuuki Check your bnet message!
 
@Fluttershy Yeah, I'm trying to find out if @Dragonrage can do Nightfalls, I think he's afk.
Oh wait, Nightfalls are 3 people.
> Belgium says loot boxes are gambling, wants them banned in Europe
 
@Yuuki Yeah. :(

@TimStone I have questions
 
THAT'S GREAT!
 
Potato flavored potato chips? Original knock-offs?
 
@PrivatePansy that's 2 questions
 
Question_s_
 
4:12 AM
@PrivatePansy oh, missed the s
 
@PrivatePansy I like that it's such a blatant copy but then they inexplicably put all this effort into the off-the-wall mascot
 
@Fluttershy got the invite thanks
 
4:53 AM
It also appears to be in the toy isle... For an (apparently) good reason.
 
5:43 AM
Ugh pls why is animal crossing not out in turkey
 
@Avery because region restriction is a dick move?
 
@Avery It feels a lot more shallow than New Leaf, unfortunately
 
Blaze it
snoop dogg plays
 
Also, the always online requirement is a burden
 
@Memor-X yes, very much so
@PrivatePansy I didn't play new leaf so
 
5:49 AM
Well then you won't know what you're missing :P
 
Also I am always online so that's not a huge problem
 
@Avery It's not always online as i 'checks online when you start a game', but rather 'pings server for everything you do', which means the game freezes when I walk into a lift
 
Ah, that sounds fun
 
Or when I walk into an area with wifi, and the phone switches between 4G and wifi
 
@PrivatePansy ehh, eff that noise
 
5:51 AM
Tbh if they don't release it in like 7 hours I won't even care a bit and I won't download and I won't play

Q: How to join Destiny 2 text chat while in crucible or other online modes?

7:37 AM
@GodEmperorDune might be something like, idk, dumb carrier stuff
Cutting long SMSes into pieces and adding number prefixes
But then again lengths are different so
 
Yeah true
It’s good lulz, fake or not
 
Uhm...
The picture is this gif
 
@PrivatePansy purchases immediately
I should remove my pictures from mom's facebook probably
Better: I should remove my pictures from mom's facebook probably
 
@GodEmperorDune twitter seems to have decided that it's a fake
Also: it is 845, I don't have to be at work today, why am I up?
 
7:57 AM
Ugh why is the process of not getting religion class this hard
 
Oh! @Avery you know weird shit like this, are pine64 2gb variants any good?
There's a deal on for 20 euros for one of them
 
I need to write a letter to citizenship thingy and get religion marker removed and then apply to school after changes appear on mersis system (roughly a month) and apply to school
@KevinvanderVelden I heard that software support on pines weren't great
Hm, might get a new ID and give updated fingerprints and new picture and handle the religion marker thing in person.
 
Hmm, they do have a lot of GPIO
 
Well
I'd get one if I were you :p
(Mostly bc I want to hear about a recent first-hand experience)
 
8:20 AM
I'm planning a pc case build and looking at the size of it and comparing it to other cases
Maybe 60 cm depth is too much given that absolutely massive ones are only 45cm deep >.>
 
@KevinvanderVelden Depth being the thing from the front to the back, or from side to side? Because some GPUs might need that depth
 
Front to back
 
well, there are definitely GPUs that need a case that's longer than 45 cm
 
So the Antwerp fire dept is currently struggling to clean up the ringway (one of the busiest roads in Belgium) after a truck lost a load of silicone last night
 
8:27 AM
And of those listed at the longest, actually looking up the manufacturer specs seems to indicate a length of 296mm for those
 
Still doesn't need more then 45 cm =p
 
I think those 60 cm cases are meant for watercooling cases which need to place a large pump somewhere
 
I haven't found a 60cm deep case
That was the number I had written down for making a case
From like, square steel tubing and aluminum plating
 
8:40 AM
boyfriend: an ant me: a speck of dust boyfriend: a bacteria me [proudly naming the smallest thing i know]: an atom boyfriend: an electron me: fuck. shit. why do we always do small talk. i hate small talk
Cc @Yuuki @Wipqozn @ash @Dragonrage
Damn one box ruined the format
 
@GodEmperorDune A string
 
I was gonna go with quark
I don't know if purely theoretical things count
 
yall are missing the punz
 
We're ignoring the puns
 
8:44 AM
Rekt
Time to go to sleep
 
@Fluttershy @Yuuki apparently there's bots in Destiny now... I'm playing Iron banner and there's a guy that spends the whole match running into a wall, throwing grenades at it and punching it
useless bots that don't work properly, but he's just throwing the match for us
@KevinvanderVelden what would you even need a 60cm deep case for? :O
 
@Chippies Shouldn't be surprised at all. People even bot Farmville
 
@Chippies I dunno! That's what I had written down, that's why I'm looking at other cases and probably shrinking it
 
@GodEmperorDune nice
 
@Nzall people bot everything, the thing that surprises me is that 1) there's such obvious bots being useless and not getting banned and 2) I forgot what I was gonna put for 2...
@KevinvanderVelden this is probably the biggest case you'll (easily) find
 
8:58 AM
@Chippies Botting is a symptom. Usually, what ends up happening is that they let bots go on for a few weeks while they analyze the bot and how it works, and then break whatever makes the bot work and ban all the users. At least, that's how Blizzard handles it
 
@Nzall the bot doesn't even work though
 
@Chippies so 60 isn't that unreasonable! Good to know ;p
 
being so obvious, you'd think it would get caught by automatic security things
 
@Chippies how it works => how it interfaces with the game
 
well either way, I reported the guy and I hope he gets what he deserves
@KevinvanderVelden I still don't know what you would need such a giant case for, unless you're running some massive custom water loops with giant radiators inside the case :P
 
9:02 AM
I'm kinda planning watercooling but not 100% sure
But 60 was just a number I wrote down
 
holy giant case
 
We can go bigger!
Hold on let me measure a previous case I had
 
I'm trying to find the biggest non-custom case available, lol
 
WxDxH 30x55x72
 
I think that linus showcased one so big that he could fit in it
 
9:04 AM
you can always go with a desk case :P
 
LAN parties
 
That looks great tbh
 
Oh dear
 
Looking at yesterdays chatlog?
 
holy crap :o
 
9:06 AM
@KevinvanderVelden Feeling yesterday's chatlog
 
That's always fun
 
@fredley fridge cases don't have good cooling/airflow
 
@Chippies Add fans and lights to improve
 
9:07 AM
Yes linus tried that too
Ah inb4d
 
This is the worst morning

Q: What is the maximum sprint speed?

MalkevMida multitool makes you sprint faster, minitool increases that factor too. There are more weapons who made that effect? They are acumulative? Wich is the maximum sprint speed you can have? I know movility is only for walking and jumping.

 
@fredley also remove all insulation and add many holes
 
@fredley hungover?
 
@Lazers2.0 does pocket edition even support shaders?
 
9:09 AM
@Arperum sounds like it tbh
 
@Arperum A little
 
Also yay I never got hungover
 
@Chippies nope
 
And even if it did I don't thimk that any mobile gpus can power the sort of shaders that user probably wants
 
@Avery That's because you are too young, and also haven't drunk enough. It will happen.
 
9:12 AM
@Lazers2.0 I edited the grammar and spelling a little bit in that question to make the questions themselves more obvious.
 
> also haven't drunk enough
Eh
Don't want to argue over that bit
 
@Arperum How many of your coworkers were late for work today after the #siliconenfile?
 
9:38 AM
@Avery I remember saying that. Now I drink a few beers and spend the next 2 days hating my life.
 
@Jutschge I get there after half a bottle
Well
The effects kick in early for me no matter the drink
 
@Jutschge I have delayed-onset hangovers. I think the natural adrenaline boost you get when you wake up and first get out of bed makes me think I'm going to be ok for the first hour or so. Then as that wears off I gradually sink into terribleness.
 
@fredley Hmm I usually just feel terrible from the moment I'm awake until 1 or 2 days after. I think the only times I don't get a hangover is whenever I drink vodka (which is weird)
But Beer is terrible. Like I can not feel drunk at all from beer and still wake up with an enormous hangover. (Gotta say though that I smoke way too much whenever I drink beer so that might be a factor)
 
9:55 AM
@Jutschge Really depends on the beer but yeah
Ales in particular can give monster hangovers
 
And ciders
Fuck cider for being so delicious yet so terrible when it comes to hangovers
 
Oh man
I haven't drunk cider in so long for that very reason
 
Bars and pubs near my hometown often take their cider from local farmers... it's soo good but way too strong
 
@Jutschge Yeah, 'country' cider can be anything up to 12% here, usually flat and lethal.
 
@Nzall None, noone even comes close to antwerp.
@fredley I did drink enough (once), did not get to experience hungover, had worse experience.
 
10:07 AM
@Arperum Currently, there's a traffic jam from Kruibeke to Zurenborg
 
The one person who actually needs to use the highway was here before me. All the others are kinda locals-ish.
Also: it's been worse. I've seen a traffic jam from Ghent to Antwerp once.
 
The China National Highway 110 traffic jam was a recurring massive traffic jam that began to form on August 14, 2010, mostly on China National Highway 110 (G110) and Beijing–Tibet expressway (G6), in Hebei and Inner Mongolia. The traffic jam slowed down thousands of vehicles for more than 100 kilometres (60 mi) and lasted for more than ten days. Many drivers were able to move their vehicles only 1 km (0.6 mi) per day, and some drivers reported being stuck in the traffic jam for five days. It is considered to be one of the longest traffic jams by some media. == Cause == Traffic on the China National...

Q: How to tell which party members a skill affects

Zoey HewllFor skills which do not target an enemy, is there any way to tell which party members they affect, other than by using them directly? There doesn't seem to be any way to tell except on healing spells, which specify "Heal" for a single target and "Heal Party" for the entire party. If there isn'...

 
10:47 AM
Agh
Just got out of an exam
My hand hurts
I had to write 2 pages worth of text
 
@Avery Well tbh that's not too bad...
 
@Jutschge i didn't hold a pen in weeks
I am a great student, am I not
 
@Nzall I really wonder how this affects other games. Especially free to play games. I mean it's still gambling in those.
 
11:02 AM
@Jutschge loot boxes are gambling regardless of what game it's in
says nothing about non-gambling type microtransactions, which is the main source of revenue in free to play games
 
@Chippies Yeah I won't argue with that. I'm just thinking about mobile games or games like hearthstone for example.
 
@Jutschge not sure about Hearthstone, considering there have been real life card games doing the same thing for years
but mobile games, if what you're buying is random, then it's gambling
 
Well it's basically a lootbox
 
Ugh
 
@Jutschge I'm not saying it isn't, but it might be different?
 
11:05 AM
Now I have german exam
 
I mean, Idk
 
And religion exam after that
Who decided to put 3 exams in one day anyways
Ugh wth
And I have ANOTHER german exam tomorrow? Wt
 
@Chippies Nope. It's all the same. Belgium wants to completely ban all sorts of lootboxes, preferably by EU-law. Only acceptable microtransactions are those where you know exactly what you'll buy. "buy a specific outfit/unlock" would still be fine.
 
11:21 AM
Well, today's german exam is done.
 
So we switch the official language of the Bridge to German now?
 
Nein, Ich sprache klein Deutsche.
Speaking of which
Or you macbook
 
@Avery you speak small german?
 
@Avery klein = small, kein = no
But yeah German is a terrible language to learn.
 
Gamers hate on EA for their games
Gamers hate on EA for what they do to smaller studios
now AAA Studios will hate on EA for pushing it too far

@MadScientist I speak little german, like, only a lil bit.
@Jutschge yes I know

I hate this language tbh
 
@Avery Verbing weirds English
 
English is probably one of the easiest languages to learn, though it is rather inconsistent in many aspects. But it's quite easy to learn mediocre, but usable English, while it's hard to master the language

Q: ETS2: Set waypoint when picking up cargo

PlanetAlexanderI've got cargo I'm going to pick up on the other side of Europe. When I accept a job, and before I pick up the cargo, I can't set a waypoint until I pick it up, and no directions are given to get to it. Is there a way to set a waypoint while you are driving to pick up the cargo?

 
11:33 AM
@MadScientist Languages shouldn't have the same difficulty curve as fighting games
 
The difficulty also depends a lot on how good the teaching itself is. And the German schools are reasonable good at teaching foreign languages, while anecdotally that doesn't seem to be the case for some other countries.
 
@MadScientist English can be understood, though tough, through thorough thought
 
@MadScientist depends on native lang, I'd say
 
Some languages are similar so you don't have to learn too many concepts
 
11:47 AM
@Nzall Even as a native speaker I had to slow down for this one.
"ough" is pronounced 4 different ways in 5 words in that sentence :|
 
@StrixVaria Wasn't that hard to come up with as a non-native
you also got something like Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
 
@Nzall I usually read fast enough that I rely on context to fill in the specific letters, so when they're in quick succession I have to slow down to figure out each individual word.
 
"Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo." is a grammatically correct sentence in American English, often presented as an example of how homonyms and homophones can be used to create complicated linguistic constructs through lexical ambiguity and the usage of homophony and homonymy. It has been discussed in literature in various forms since 1967, when it appeared in Dmitri Borgmann's Beyond Language: Adventures in Word and Thought. The sentence employs three distinct meanings of the word buffalo: as a proper noun to refer to a specific place named Buffalo, the city of Buffalo...

@GodEmperorDune This made me morning
 
Not Yay, spiders are good creatures
 
Ugh
 
@fredley not when you have arachnophobia
and you live where the most dangerous ones are
 
@Memor-X This is not the case for Nzall though.
The first assumption I can't say anything about.
 
@Memor-X All spiders are dangerous!
 
12:32 PM
@Jutschge my assumption
 
I fell off a chair once while cleaning the top of a cupboard because a huge spider crawled out from behind it at what seemed to be the speed of sound.
These things are scary :(
 
@Jutschge i would have had a heart attack
 
@Arperum Yeah, I'm an arachnophobe
pretty severe case as well
 
I mean I know most spiders are actually harmless but their movement is just... ugh
You can't have 8 legs and not look creepy while moving
 
2 decades ago, I ran through our garden and ended up with a huge spider on my shoulder
I ran through the entire house
 
12:47 PM
ive had black widows crawl on me before

I'm pretty happy that we don't really have any dangerous animals here.

Q: Do people influence how fast the tower goes?

LyricsBotPlaying tower control you have to stand on a tower to get into the enemy base. Some people stay on the tower and the other go forward and splat people. When someone else is on the tower I usually go forth ad splat people. But if there are more people on the tower will the tower go faster?
