8:00 PM
yeah, there are also some parts where the camera switches angles automatically, so the controls reverse automatically and you get kinda stuck
like moving down now moves you up and back to where you were trying to leave
also fuck rextro's flappy bird clone
 
flappy bird clone?
is that the one in the last level?
Because I haven't done that one yet
 
@Ash yup. my bad. nuke that please.
was very high on sugar at the point I posted those messages.
(tried that new shiny starbucks thing)
(it's great but causes unwanted effects like makes me go in a sugar frenzy)
(sorry for those who might have been offended from that)
(that's generally not my preference of words)
 
@KevinvanderVelden yes, the only main difference I've noticed is monster and spell/trap zones are reduced to 3
 
@Avery (I regret it so much that I connected to mobile hotspot to post those messages, and I'm already around 5gb above my limit)
 
They also have skills on characters, so for example Pegasus gets Mind Scan which allows you to see your opponent's set carda

@Avery that's fine but if you can't watch yourself when you are sugar fueled perhaps you should do other things until it passes
 
I know. That was out of character for me.
 
@BlueBarren yes i think so
 
Wee! Painting is complete, so it's time for construction!

Q: How do I use the /testfor command? (Minecraft)

GamingGuyTylerI've been trying to use this command since I found out about it, but for some odd reason, it hasn't been working at all. The command blocks look something like this: But whenever I go to those certain coordinates, I am not teleported to those coordinates. Am I missing anything? (Just to clarify:...

Q: I can't use a xbox 360 controller with CSGO

KyleIt just doesn't work, it works with other games. I have tried so many things, creating cfg files, running exec blah blah, joystick 1. Whenever I open the Controller Settings it just opens Steam Big Picture Mode to select what button does what. The only thing I can do is move with my mouse. Any he...

 
@Lazers2.0 ewwwwwwwwwwww
I'm p sure this is illegal
 
Yes let's take Niel gorsuch out of his lifetime judgeship for a position in the FBI so he can be replaced by a conservative then fired from the FBI
Wait fuck Merrick Garland
 
i think you are misunderstanding the joke
 
Is the joke that they aren't looking for a special prosecutor?
 
8:46 PM
@Unionhawk no its that obama is volunteering
 
Wait fr or in resistance fanfics only
 
@Unionhawk fanfics, obvi
just like that "sealed indictment" fanfic
 
"special prosecutor barrack obama charges Donald Trump with being bad and installs president Orrin fucking Hatch with vice president Hillary Clinton"
 
if you have "breaking news" and its from your blog and not on mainstream media sites... nope
 
Breaking news: Congress appoints special prosecutor Louise Mensch to charge President Donald J Trump and his entire administration with treason
What the compromised media outlet "nytopinion" doesn't want you to know
Breaking news: making shit like this up, and exaggerating shit like "FCC is looking into the Colbert show" doesn't fucking help
More at 11
 
8:57 PM
@Unionhawk helps the ratings, so, it does help? Just not what you want to be helped, I guess

Q: How to do @e[!score_Blank_min=1]

WolfySocksHello im doing a command on my server and im trying to make it effect everyone but someone with a certain score like @e[r=2,type=!score_Assassin8Craiy_min=1]. Im trying as much as i can but im no professional please help.

 
How about instead of going after people who are defaulted on student loans you stop cutting rich people's taxes
 
 
This is why I'm refinancing this shit
 
not even linux is safe from wannacry
 
...it can actually run on linux?
 
9:47 PM
@Avery wait how?
i thought its a bug in SMB
is it on samba too?
 
that's just how it spreads though.. that's now how it encrypts
 
@3ventic yup
 
(without wine that is)
 
no, of course not
oh
 
10:12 PM
so is there some really simple piece of software that will just notice that a lot of files are being read, written and deleted
and it goes like "yup maybe this shouldn't be happening"
and it's not an antivirus
I don't wanna google it because I expect this to have been SEOd to death
 
yes
there's microsoft's ATA
microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/advanced-threat-analytics (unlike the ibm thing, this is kinda sponsored, but meh, it answers the question)

@Avery ...yeah, that's what I thought, pay $80/yr so you might not have to pay $300
unless it doesn't work, then you have to pay both

Did everyone get the Alan Wake bundle?
 
@Gallifreyan oh right, I meant to give that game a look
$3, and it'll never be purchasable again
 
10:22 PM
I played the first 2 hours or so, and I'd happily finish it.
 
user15026
@Avery I finished Mosquitoland, Kids of Appetite was better.
 
@badp heh, its actually ironic
hey pay us a ton
because we didnt harden our OS in first place
@Ash hmm, I suppose it's still worth reading though.
Oh right, btw, alan wake crashes on wine 2.7, don't be fooled by winehq.
(except I'm the only one here that's crazy enough to expect to play most (if not all) games in a compatibility layer)
 
user15026
@Avery oh it is, I just liked the other one better
 
ah, ok :)
btw, do you happen to have drm-free version of the kfc book? my phone's screen hurts my eyes.
 
user15026
10:33 PM
@Avery I can make you one, what format
 
user15026
It won't be til I get home later tonight
 
user15026
@user181112 context of why this is here?
 
@Ash I'm going to guess there isn't any
 
user15026
I was hoping I was wrong and magically they'd have a reason other than just a random post for no reason
 
user15026
10:36 PM
Because otherwise it's just annoying
 
@Ash kepub if you have the output plugin installed but epub is also ok.
(if you don't, you should consider installing it- it improves page switch times and fixes the page numbers)
 
user15026
@Avery probably will just be an epub

Q: How do I damage Thunderblight Ganon?

ChubyPenguinI tried the boss fight against Thunderblight Ganon, and was very shocked, even after watching video and guides, at how freaking fast he is. I knew he came in to attack fast, but he dashes away before I can damage him. I tried a perfect parry, but the electricity makes me drop my shield. I also tr...

 
@badp except the ransomware people might not return your files anyway, so...
 
@badp I have an ATA key. I should test it out with this.
(wcry)
@GodEmperorDune oh, wcry talks about that on help file
 
10:44 PM
*bop*
 
@Avery we promise to unencrypt your files, no bamboozle?
@badp thanks
 
@GodEmperorDune probably comes with a 30 Days Satisfaction Guarantee
Your No Money Back, No Questions Asked
 
@GodEmperorDune pretty much
the last Q&A is relevant
 
@Avery maybe no one will trust you because you potentially killed patients in hospital so that you could make a little money
 
well, not really
I don't think they aimed hospitals directly
 
10:46 PM
@Avery yes, NHS should have had their shit updated
 
2 days ago, by Avery
While the "bad guys" are in fault, so is NHS.
 
@Avery more fault on the bad guys IMO
but yeah, fixing the NHS's IT policies was probably a better priority than spending all that time and focus to withdraw from the EU, so UKIP is also to blame
 
arguable, but yeah, if it wasn't for bad guys, nhs would be ok. but if nhs' systems were safe or they had a fallback plan, people wouldn't be harmed.
 
govt stuff being fuct is almost always the fault of the overseeing bodies
i can't speak for the UK, but in the US, the govt agency needs to ask congress for money to make upgrades and that is usually denied as a "waste"
 
user15026
Getting systems like that upgraded and all of that is usually low priority and complicated and you have to make all the stuff work together and oh god
 
user15026
10:53 PM
It's not as easy as "just upgrade your shit"
 
@Ash yes, it requires a lot of time and money, therefore management needs to prioritize it
and budgets need to be allocated for it

Q: How do i get this chest in the factory?

AndyI feel like I figured it out my first play through the game, but in my current save file I haven't been able to figure it out. Its right outside of the Factory: Hanger access point.

 
i did not mean to imply that there is some higher up at NHS who neglected to push the "upgrade now" button for the org
but most of the problems around upgrading can be solved with money
fixing technical debt holding you back costs money
buying new machines to replace obsolete ones costs money
 
user15026
Yeah, it's frustrating that tech and software and stuff never really gets precedence
 
tech is kinda like medicines
 
10:59 PM
you have to actively work at it to stay up to date
 
Meds were pmuch nothing 100 years ago but an essential part of our life mow
 
and sometimes that gets annoying... by the time you finish testing and rolling out one set of patches, a new set is available and it continues
 
Tech, 30, 40 years maybe
neither is getting thanked enough outside their fields
 
user15026
@Avery that really depends on what you call meds
 
user15026
@GodEmperorDune I think that's why people drag their feet because a) what if it breaks things and b) it never ends
 
11:02 PM
Well I'm mostly talking about the ones that defeated major diseases and improved life expectancies by a huge margin
@Ash this makes sense
 
user15026
Especially for stuff where like...taking that time can be critical like in health services
 
user15026
It sucks, because then, well, gestures to NHS
 
@Ash yeah testing on life/death kind of things is INTENSE and therefore expensive
 
Reminds me of the time ing bricked their datacenter
 
if airplane software connected to the internet it would be as fuct as the NHS is
 
11:06 PM
or isbank
 
because every single line of source code needs to be audited
not code reviewed, audited by a team of people in a room at the relevant govt agency
 
ing tested a fire thingy and vibration caused hdds to lock, isbank tried to upgrade software and everything died off for a day
i see what you mean by intense
It also kinda brings us to the point of windows. Perhaps govt agencies with mission critical stuff should use more strengthened stuff like FreeBSD.
 
user15026
It's not just about that though
 
user15026
You need to have stuff that will run the programs you need
 
user15026
So to make that change you would have to get all your programs and such moved and considering a lot of that is very niche markets anyhow, that's unlikely

Q: Two chests in factory - possible to get or incorrectly marked?

AndyIf you have the Item Scan chip equipped, in Chapter 9 there's a part of the factory where the view changes to side scrolling and zooms very far out. After you go through the middle tower there's a chest mark on the mini-map which appears to be near the top. When you go through as 9S later con...

 
@Avery i don't think it'll make a difference since given enough time anything can be hacked regardless of security, the security is just there to waste the other guy's time while you either put in your contingency plan or track them so you can make an arrest
and anything that says it's more secure probably just gets it's security update patches sooner
 
thing is that freebsd is designed for uptime. and for not failing. it even has native zfs support.
 
@Avery but then all the software they purchase would need to be runnable on freebsd instead of windows
 
yeah, I'm not saying "hey switch to freebsd now", I'm saying that it'd be great if it was like that
 
@Avery considering how much of a learning curve it is to get from windows XP to newer windows, training all staff to go from windows to BSD .... i don't think it'll happen
 
11:22 PM
(bsd isn't linux but yeah, your point stands)
 
i mean these are not tech savvy employees necessarily
a lot of it is going to be the agency equivalent of a point of sale machine
terminals used for interacting with the public
that sort of thing
source: my mother in law works for the county social services office
they use this old thing that looks like it was built when only DOS was a thing
the upgrade was to make it look like a windows 3.1 app and there was a lot of pushback
i think lately it looks like windows 2000

Q: Does the choice to stay or go make a difference?

AndyAt the end of the game, the character has a choice; stay or leave. I've picked both, and it doesn't seem to matter. So, does it really matter what answer you pick for that question? What changes?

 
@GodEmperorDune thankfully Microsoft released an out of bounds patch for old systems
 
@Unionhawk yeah that was nice of them
also the letter full of shade at the NSA was great too
