Q: Is there a way to know, in client, if the champion I'm about to play is AP oriented or AD oriented?

Fredy31From within the LoL client, is there a way to know if the champion I'm about to play is mostly AP or AD; or do you have to load up lolking or just know it before you lock in? I often just look at my champions and decide what I want to try on the spot; but when it's a champion that I do not know ...

Q: Can you bet your last body?

QuijiboI have been wondering about this, but I don't want to ruin my account with this experiment. So, can I bet my last body(this box you are battling in)? If yes, what happens if I lose my bet? Will I be unable to play until I unlock a supply box or sponsor box? Will I be battling with levitating wea...

 
i... wut
hmum de dum
anyone ever got a job because someone talked to someone in teh pub?
 
lol I have.
 
...I have, kind of.
 
Except it was a bar.
;) jk
 
I mean, it wasn't a pub as such, but yes
 
7:15 PM
I kind of did too
it was a restaurant but yeah we were both high
 
^ this.
 
then I left a week later because he was being crappy towards me
 
I got my first job at a hobby games store because I complained that there was not enough staff on Saturdays with open gaming and the store room. So I became the staff for the game room.
 
(also, I didn't get the job because of it, but I wouldn't have known the job existed and applied to it if I hadn't)
 
haha, I was let go from that job for eating too much pizza.
incidentally, it was from a pizzeria.
 
7:22 PM
;p;
@MadMAxJr I got one job at a lan gaming center, because I asked the owner every day for 6 months for a job
 
@HazyKingdom Never use your own supply, man.
That's like drug dealer 101.
 
@Yuuki To be fair this really works best if you didn't already know it's a joke. To be honest after you've read a few paragraphs, and see "there's still a bunch left", it's pretty obvious what the joke is. AT which point you skip to the end to see what the punchline is going to be.
 
@djsmiley2k pure determination.
@Yuuki It was my first job so it was a lesson well learned. Oh and I learned don't eat already ordered pizzas.
 
Wait, you ate pizza while on the job?
 
You ate orders?
 
7:25 PM
Why?
 
lol yep, I took the calls and placed the orders.
 
and then ate the orders?
 
We also sold by the slice, and kept the ordered pizzas WITH the by-slice pizzas.
So I wound up eating a whole customer's order instead of a by-slice pizza.
 
:/
 
I used to be fat, leave me alone.
 
7:26 PM
I would never eat while on the job, I'd take the pizza home first and then eat it at home.
 
@Yuuki Oh my....
 
We couldn't take any leftover homes which was the main problem.
Smart thinking though.
 
@HazyKingdom Why not?
 
I have to eat on the job if I want to eat lunch. :(
 
The owner was an asshole, we threw out a lot of product. Needless to say that company went out of business about three years after.
 
7:28 PM
@Fluttershy Aww. That must stink.
 
@HazyKingdom Depends on the place, but when I used to work at a dine-in movie theatre, we were told to throw leftovers out instead of taking them home.
@HazyKingdom There's a reason behind it.
 
@Yuuki That's totally backwards in my mind. I don't even really understand why you'd want to do that.
hit me with some knowledge!
 
It's not necessarily a good reason but it makes sense from a certain perspective.
So sometimes leftover food is the result of a mistaken order.
Like a meat lover's pizza when the customer asked for a vegetarian.
 
@Elizer Eh, I've gotten used to it after five years of it. Still, it'd be nice to clock out and go eat lunch somewhere sometime.
 
agh, that'd make sense, but still ... there are a ton of other ways to get rid of that food.
 
7:30 PM
The reasoning behind forcing employees to throw away leftovers is that if you give leftovers to the employees, they might have some motivation to mistake orders on purpose so they have some food to take home for free.
 
tl;dr
Dec 18 '16 at 17:30, by Tim Stone
@Unionhawk It's funny because the real enemy was capitalism all along!
 
@Yuuki there is some legal liability there too
 
WOW, that's some sinister logic there.
 
@GodEmperorDune If you're talking about donating leftover food to the homeless, there's actually no legal liability there.
There's just a perception of legal liability and, in most cases, the lack of a financial incentive.
 
@Yuuki some places put shield laws in place
but yes, I should've said PR liability, not legal liability
 
7:32 PM
@HazyKingdom It's really only a perceived problem in low-end/fast food type restaurants.
 
because someone lets the food spoil, eats it later, and "company X poisons homeless guy, film at 11"
 
In higher-quality "fancy" dine-in restaurants, employees will often take home leftovers.
 
I just went through an entire song wondering why the sound wasn't playing. Then I realized my headphones weren't turned on.
 
Ostensibly because at that level, the workers aren't paid minimum wage and there's more trust between the workforce and the management.
 
7:34 PM
@Elizer Sounds like a case of the Mondays.
 
@HazyKingdom Strangely, I was happy this morning. And It is a Monday.
 
@Elizer Fascinating
Do tell more
 
@Elizer have you seen the movie "office space"?
 
@Yuuki I can see that, there are a lot less teenagers waiting at 4 star restaurants (teens seem to be less trustworthy, no offense to anyone). Teens need money WAY less than adults.
@Elizer lol sorry office space pun.
 
@GodEmperorDune No. Why?
 
7:36 PM
@Elizer its a line from the movie
the "case of the mondays"
 
Ahh. I see.
 
\o/ automated C14 backups
 
@Elizer Awesome cult classic, you should watch it sometime.
 
Dat looks funny!
@HazyKingdom I will!
 
7:37 PM
@Avery i tried to get c14 up and running, no luck
 
I would never be able to work in food related business
I would eat too much of it
 
they wouldn't handle my credit card
 
ouch
 
and when i opened a support ticket, they told me to validate my phone (which won't work because US)
 
@BlueBarren I haven't held a job that's food related since then. It's a terrible weakness of mine.
I lost like 15 pounds after quitting that job too haha
er ... being let go from that job.
 
7:38 PM
@HazyKingdom I feel your pain especially since it was pizza
I ended up working at Walmart for a while instead
 
@BlueBarren Ay. Pizza is awesome.
 
My mom was really pushing for me to get a job so she kept saying "Get a job at McDonalds" and I knew that would be a bad idea
 
@BlueBarren It was a pizzeria in Chicago no less. A very scary place.
 
silver lining is that you inspired me to get automated backups running and pushing to google cloud storage, so thanks @Avery
 
@HazyKingdom I don't know that stereotype if you're referring to one
 
7:39 PM
If you're an American, you know what this means.
 
Well I'm Canadian :|
 
@HazyKingdom malnado's?
 
@BlueBarren But I'm an american and I don't know what that means...
 
@Elizer Mafia?
 
I'm half-surprised @LessPop didn't magically appear to ban you
 
7:40 PM
maybe?

Q: Stuck in a toll booth

DJ PirtuGot to a toll booth. Hit enter to get the ticket. The gate opened. And my heavy load decides to pull me backwards. Before I can get my truck to move forwards again, the gate has closed. And won't open again. Now I'm stuck between a closed gate (can't retake the ticket) and heavy traffic behind ...

 
wait, why is @Uni stealing babies?
 
Chicago pizza is supposed to world renowned , especially since they add 5 lbs of additional cheese on it.
 
@Dragonrage I'm sorry, what?
 
also @Avery i feel your slow upload frustration now, uploading a hundred GB is annoying af
 
7:41 PM
@HazyKingdom oh I see the problem now
 
@TimStone @lesspop disappeared into alaska or canada and hasnt been seen since
 
@GodEmperorDune Yep!!!!! The location I worked at went under though.
 
yesterday, by Unionhawk
And then they're going to steal all of your babies
 
That's a word of warning @Dragonrage, careful with them.
 
@Dragonrage notice @Unionhawk didn't say he was stealing babies but referred to a mysterious "they"
 
7:43 PM
@HazyKingdom that's the only chicago pizza place i know, lol
 
@GodEmperorDune um
 
@GodEmperorDune Sounds about right. lol Have you had their pizza though?
 
I don't think I uploaded 100gb in my entire life combined
 
@BlueBarren i believe they can be used to refer to yourself if you are talking in 3rd person and using singular they
 
@Dragonrage Where's your proof this was said in the third person?
 
7:45 PM
Alright, presentation time. BBLz
 
@HazyKingdom i did the mail order maldonados once, after hype from a guy at work from chicago who loved it... i thought it was meh
 
@BlueBarren he is a tugboat, how am i supposed to know?
 
Wait, Unionhawk's a tugboat?
 
@Avery i meant more of the "lot of stuff to upload" vs "relatively tiny upload bandwidth" frustration
 
7:49 PM
PFFFFFT, HA! UNI'S A FREAKIN TUGBOAT! HA!
 
@GodEmperorDune yeah, I get it
 
@Avery cool, sorry if i overexplained, my brain not awake yet today
 
mine wasn't awake today at all, nw
 
@Dragonrage no, the ACLU, duh
 
8:05 PM
@Unionhawk well that's what i want my donation going to
 
8:24 PM
Urgh, learjet crash at an airport in north Jersey
 
@TimStone dammit @Wipqozn
 
I haven't been on Twitter most of the day but got the itch and there are rompers for men so I'm just gonna turn around and close that out
 
@TimStone "romphim"
 
Yes shudders
 
i mean what man doesn't appreciate a good romp?
 
user15026
8:43 PM
Rompers are weird looking on any adult, i think.
 
I should cut all my nails no matter what length they are when I cut them. My pinky nail is currently much longer than the rest because it grows weirdly and in spurts. I feel like this might be taken the wrong way.
 
8:57 PM
@GodEmperorDune Glad to hear you've tried it, but that's a shame. They make those pizzas in a factory that I've been to, not even close to a sit-in pizza. Think of the mail order pizza as SNES vs PS4. They barely compare.
In other news, this is pretty much the reason I quit Overwatch.
 
@HazyKingdom I assumed something like that, perhaps I'll get the real thing if I'm ever in chicago
 
Hoo boy, do I even want to click on that link? That's a rather loaded title.
 
Why would you willingly click that?
I'd rather click Friday
 
Hey, that girl's a national treasure.
 
> Is it weird for me to say I love new Sega? First they are publishing Endless Space 2 without seemingly being heavy-handed about it, ported Bayonetta 1 out of nowhere with Vanquish on the horizon at reasonable prices with no DRM and now this.
I don't think I am used to large companies being this consumer-friendly in recent times. Send help I think I found a glitch in the Matrix.
> wtf i love sega now?
> W-when's the next subpar sonic game
Come on man I need something to complain about
 
@GodEmperorDune you totally should, it's night and day. Hell, if you go to Chicago , you should take a pizza tour. There are at least two other pizza joints that are way better that no one has ever heard of.
 
You don't say. What if...? https://twitter.com/gematsucom/status/863940082100842497
 
@Yuuki Probably not, it's a pretty grim video. So much toxicity in that game at low level ranks, forget about it. Worse than LoL at this point.
And no it's not weird, they actually seem to have their shit together lately.
 
@Yuuki oh shit, pillars of eternity 2!
 
9:05 PM
@GodEmperorDune Moar Jet Set Radio!
 
9:15 PM
They need to remake this game ASAP.
 
@GodEmperorDune you are like baby

@TimStone oh shit, wut
wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
and they said obama refusing to give full briefings was overreacting
 
@TimStone If he isn't impeached within the next 3 months then all those checks and balances don't work at all
Because this is far past the point of ridiculousness
 
holy shit
Here's how the white house took the meet and greet.
Literally none of that happened.
 
@Wipqozn it seems the constitution was foolishy written assuming that sufficient people in government would act in good faith for the system to work
 
9:24 PM
@GodEmperorDune Silly constitution. shouldn't the founding fathers have realized that eventually there would be one party that was completely corrupt?
 
Hackers have stolen a Disney movie for ransom, CEO Bob Iger reportedly says http://cnb.cx/2qKy09A
 
Like the democrats aren't great either, but jesus
 
lol what
 
The GOP has pretty much proven they have no right being apolitical party at this point
 
THIS IS QUITE A DAY
 
9:25 PM
@TimStone Which one?
I'm okay with letting go of Cars 3, just sayin'.
 
@Yuuki my thoughts exactly
@Wipqozn the voters have to act as a check on their members of congress and so far that isn't happening
 
&= and |=?
halp
 
@Yuuki like += but for boolean operations
 
Yeah, just looked up assignment operators on MDN.
 
basically do the operation and store it back
 
9:28 PM
And typically single & and | is bitwise
Unless that isn't the case in this case then idk
 
i dunno the use case for doing boolean operations and storing the result in the same variable
the use case for += is a running sum in a loop
 
@Wipqozn They're already apolitical rimshot
 
@Wipqozn I mean strictly speaking the president has that authority!
 
@GodEmperorDune Especially not in a += sort of fashion
 
Because no one figured someone that stupid could be elected, I guess
 
9:30 PM
@TimStone they thought electoral college would stop it
RIP hamilton

@MBraedley la-la-latency
 
@Unionhawk Thanks for having my back! :D
 
sorry @TimStone no stars for you
 
@Unionhawk so, you're saying you don't exist?
 
9:32 PM
@GodEmperorDune he has two stars
 
blame @Wipqozn
@KazWolfe THERE ARE FOUR STARS
 
@GodEmperorDune No, there actually is six stars this time. YOUR TRICKS WON'T WORK ON ME, PICARD!
 
6*
INB4 YOUR EDIT
 
barely
 
@MBraedley If the Party said there are four stars, there are four stars.
 
9:35 PM
@MBraedley four stars on @TimStone's
 
It's amazing how much the president does literally the stupidest thing possible out of a selection of other potentially not stupid things and yet he's apparently some political genius
Like, he's every bit as stupid as liberals said W was and probably more
 
I mean, it is very hard to plan against someone doing things as determined by dice roll
 
Way, way more.
 
And all he does is take Ls
He has yet to win at anything whatsoever since November
 
@Unionhawk W sucked because he didn't do anything meaningful in his first 100 days 7.5 months.
The same can't be said for Trump.
 
9:38 PM
@Unionhawk 4billionD chess
 
IMO W sucked because he was insanely rightwing =p
 
@Unionhawk he won at barely ramming a terrible tax cut + fuck you poor people bill through the house
 
(yes I know that for american politics he wasn't insanely rightwing, but american politics is weird)
 
@KevinvanderVelden but W at least seemed to genuinely care for the country and people in it
 
And while W said some pretty stupid stuff, it was (mostly) just that, stupid. Not nearly as inflammatory as some (most) of the things Trump has said.
 
9:40 PM
Yes, W was a human being with whom I vehemently disagree on politics. Trump is... trump
 
plus he went around for 7 years explicitly telling his base not to be angry at all muslims for 9/11
@MBraedley it was stupid like grammar mistakes and stuff like that, not hateful
 
@GodEmperorDune Exactly. I never pegged W as a hateful person. Additionally, the people he surrounded himself with were generally intelligent and knew how government worked.
 
Running government like a strip club off Van Nuys Blvd. in the San Fernando Valley.
people from LA get this refrance
 
I definitely said that W himself was incompetent (opinion), but by and large not his government. At least not at the levels we see with Trump's government.
 
9:46 PM
@GodEmperorDune that is a depressing thought
 
@badp Thanks (self-googling).
 
@Fluttershy This really sounds like a thing that would end a typical politician, but I've thought before that Trump was finished, and was certainly wrong
 
@MadScientist it should, but probably won't
i don't know what he has to do for the republicans in congress to take action
 
user15026
Bought salmon for dinner and I really want to eat it and the roasted sweet potatoes I planned as a side but that means leaving my cozy bed. The world is unfair.
 
@Ash so eat it in bed
send for your manservant
 
user15026
9:59 PM
Well, I have to cook it first
 
you have the bell that rings the servants quarters, no?
 
@GodEmperorDune as long as it is more advantageous for them to have him in power, there is literally nothing he can do that will get him to turn on them; the Republican ethos is "Fuck You, Got Mine".
Furthermore, even if it stops being advantageous, you need a critical mass to turn on him; individual dissenters will be branded traitors and cast out of the party.
huggles @Ash
 
@ToxicFrog the critical mass is not many in the senate
in the house its like 20 or 30, iirc
 
> Two US officials who were briefed on Trump’s disclosures last week confirmed to BuzzFeed News the veracity of the Post report, with one official noting that “it’s far worse than what has already been reported.”
 
@GodEmperorDune by "critical mass" I don't mean "the number needed to stop legislation from being passed"
I mean "the number needed for 'opposing the great leader' to be a socially safe action"
Which is much higher
 
user15026
10:03 PM
Good night! Good night! Let's make some new mistakes! Let's stumble towards success and pack some snacks for little breaks!
 
user15026
LMM is such a wonderful human.
 
@MadScientist sadly unsurprising
@ToxicFrog really you just gotta flip house leadership
 
@GodEmperorDune like, the Republican party is the party of naked self-interest and authoritarian tendencies; you need to overcome both
 
or get them to take a neutral stance and let democrats push something punishing through
 
What's in it for them?
 
10:05 PM
@ToxicFrog if associating with trump will cost them their seats or majority
 
@GodEmperorDune yeah, but you need to (a) convince them of that and (b) convince them that it's worth the social backlash of breaking with the rest of the party (or that enough of the party is thinking the same way that there will no backlash)
And I'm not convinced that either of those are tractable unless and until 2018 is a total bloodbath
 
@ToxicFrog you really need to get rid of the hastert rule (which basically says fuck bipartisanship, only schedule votes that the majority of republicans will vote for)
@ToxicFrog yeah 2018 could change a lot of things, unfortunately dems are shit at midterms
 
People are angry enough that I'm hoping that doesn't hold in 2018
But it does seem to have historically been the case that the Dems (voters and party alike) are hyperfocused on the presidency at the expense of all the state- and municipality-level positions that are necessary to actually govern effectively
 
10:22 PM
It all comes down to a fundamental misunderstanding of how the government works.
People attribute way more power to the President than the office actually holds.
And so the common misunderstanding is that electing a President effects the most change.
And once they accomplish that, interest falls off completely.
 
@Yuuki the president does have a lot of power, but the effects are normally very gradual
the pres appoints heads of agencies, drives agency policies, etc
 
I think a parliamentary system is much better than something like the US presidential system, but then I'm certainly biased there
 
not to mention federal judgeships
 
@GodEmperorDune The office has power, of course. It's supposed to check and balance against the other two branches. But most people think the President has a lot more power than he or she actually does.
 
@Yuuki yes, i agree with this
 
10:25 PM
And many of those appointments are checked by the legislative.
 
the way it normally goes is President wants to do something -> pres talks to agency heads -> agency heads take it back to agencies -> months/years later, policy pops out
 
@MadScientist My problem with the parliamentary system is that the Prime Minister is by definition a majority leader.
In fact, he or she is the majority leader.
 
pres wanting to do something and announcing that it's going to happen immediately does not work in that system
nor can you just throw the govenment in a u-turn from previous directions without all kinda stuff getting messed up
 
While normally this would mean that a parliamentary system should in theory be more effective at pursuing change (since the legislative and the head of state should in theory be united), most parliamentary systems are just as slow as the US's system.
 
hey, random question. can anyone reach verisign.com or is it giving an error 400?
 
10:28 PM
the original intention was that there would be a centrist government occasionally veering more left or more right, not wildly swinging from one extreme to the other
 
Or at least that's my understanding, which is probably completely incorrect because I don't live under a parliamentary system and therefore don't get much news about parliamentary systems.
 
@KazWolfe loading for me
 
@GodEmperorDune weird. thanks.

Q: What are the special features of the recently announced Circle K Power Cube

Montag451Niantic has just announced a new type of power cube called Circle K Power Cube to be released soon. What are the special features of Circle K Power Cube?

 
10:35 PM
Wee! I just signed myself deeper into debt.
 
@Frank \o/
new place?
 
@RedRiderX what is royal assent?
 
@GodEmperorDune Refinance the existing place, so I can put a downpayment on the next one.
 
@GodEmperorDune It's basically like the president signing bills into law but for Canada.
 
10:37 PM
@GodEmperorDune Technically it's the Queen (or Governor General) putting the law into effect. Practically it's Parliament signing off on it.
@Yuuki Though the Queen (or Governor General) never ever vetos stuff.
 
oh canada
@RedRiderX is there a governor specific?
 
@RedRiderX I think they can but the current situation is that there's a bit of a gentleman's agreement that the British monarchy will leave Canada the f--k alone.
 
In my worst case scenario, I will still be comfortable carrying both mortgages.
 
They can, but the moment they did it would trigger a constitutional crisis, I suspect
 
@ToxicFrog those are all the rage these days
 
10:40 PM
@Yuuki Indeed.
@GodEmperorDune Not sure what you mean, but the Governor General is the Queen's representative and technically appointed by the Crown (though really the Prime Minister tells her who to pick). Current One
 
@ToxicFrog It's like the whole "you could win the US presidency with <20% of the popular vote" thing. Technically achievable but highly unlikely for various reasons, several of them institutional.
Unlikely to the point where most people (almost) rightly assume that it'll just never happen.
 
@RedRiderX that looks like jeff sessions with a happier childhood
 
user15026
@RedRiderX he is from near me!
 
user15026
That's all I really know about him. The township he lives in mentions it on their sign. (or well they did at one point at least)
 
@Ash I remember Waterloo papers and the university making a big deal about it when he was appointed.
 
user15026
10:45 PM
@RedRiderX oh yes they very much did

Q: How can I replay Bayonetta 1's tutorial?

Steven VascellaroWhen playing Bayonetta's prologue for the first time, the game provides interactive demonstrations of Bayonetta's moves as a form of tutorial. These scenes are automatically skipped when relaying the level. Is there any way to replay the tutorial without starting a new save file?

 
user15026
@GodEmperorDune giggles
 
I was always more fond of the ceremonial mace: parl.gc.ca/About/House/collections/collection_profiles/…
Seems like you could do some damage with that one
Though probably only once
 
10:58 PM
@RedRiderX If it's actually gold, it'll bend after the first hit.
And is reeeeeeeeeeally heavy.
 
@Frank it might bend before the first hit, depending on the alloy
 
@GodEmperorDune Either way, whoever it hits is definitely going to feel it.
 
@Frank yeah
 
@Frank Gilded silver, it seems
