@Avery i find it odd that the Secure Connection part isn't coming up

Avery

@Memor-X I was mostly talking about issues on one of my sites

the reason it's not coming up here is mixed content

Memor-X

@Avery yeh but i'm assuming that Secure Connection comes after Valid Certificate then Secure Resources. the fact that is missing makes me thing that there might be something wrong with that

@Cerberus that's going to disappear soon. just realized there are still a couple more games i could get like Shadow Run and Disgaea. also some Shoujo Ai/Yuri.

Cerberus

What are you playing?

@Memor-X Ah, I have Shadowrun Returns sitting in my basket, too!

Memor-X

i'm not really buying any single game for more than $10 unless it has been a must get item

Cerberus

Disgae is on my ITAD waitlist, it's not cheap enough yet.

Memor-X

pack and collections on the other hand i weigh up the value

Cerberus

00:57

Neither do I.

Memor-X

@Cerberus first Disgaea is 7.99 but the second 13.39 but the pack which is both games and their art books is 21.36 which is 0.02 less than buying both games separately

Cerberus

That's...not very generous.

Is it a bundle or a package?

Memor-X

@Cerberus 21.36 is the pack which is both games and their art books

Cerberus

If it's not a package, you might be able to save money after all, at least in theory.

But is it a bundle or a package?

Bundles give you a discount if you already own some of the content; packages do not.

Memor-X

@Cerberus i assume bundle maybe?

store.steampowered.com/bundle/1063/…

Cerberus

01:02

You can see it in the url: packages have /sub/, bundles have /bundle/.

Ah, good.

Memor-X

@Cerberus ahhh, so a pack and a bundle on steam are 2 different things

Cerberus

Yup.

I think the publisher decides which it will be.

So you could save even a little more money.

Unionhawk

Ugh why the fuck does all delivery related food close at 10 around me this it bullshit

Beedrill

I figured out the issue with my Apps Script. Apparently simple triggers aren't allowed to open/edit other documents, so if you try to do that it just fails silently instead of giving you any indication that anything bad happened.

Installing a custom trigger fixed the thing.

Unionhawk

Where all means "larosas closes at 10, but jimmy John's closes at 9 and Domino's doesn't deliver"

Beedrill

"Domino's doesn't deliver" wat?

How do they do business?

I have never in my life actually stepped into a Domino's store.

Memor-X

01:36

@Unionhawk because it's 10 where you are and most places close at 10

@Beedrill Domino's no but there's a pizza joint down from where i last worked called Pizza Capers which never did delivery

Beedrill

There are pizza places that can survive without doing delivery. My favorite two pizzerias near me don't deliver. But not Domino's.

Unionhawk

@Beedrill they have a carry out only store near me

@Memor-X I'm used to having a Domino's that delivers 23.5 hours, and a Jimmy John's that delivers until 4

Also larosas was quoting me an hour for delivery

(larosas is local pizza)

MBraedley

01:55

Most pizza places here do delivery, but that's because the biggest regional chain (there weren't any national chains either) offered free delivery, and up until several years ago, under 45 minutes or the entire order is free. Almost forces the others to offer delivery.

That's changed a bit in my home town, but one place in particular doesn't do the volume that other places do.

Looking at my old 3DS XL after charging, it seems that while the upper screen is powered, it isn't displaying anything.

Currently working on it.

I think the recessed screw holes in the old 3DS XL are a lot smaller than in the N3DS XL.

Old 3DS XL price == N3DS XL price

You can't save data to non-temp locations on cordova on iOS, unless you use a plugin, which requires you to rewrite a whole save/load system for that OS, which makes you lose time you gained by using this framework.

As such, it has been featured on mylar birthday balloons and cupcakes.[7] In 2016, a termite mound in Western Australia was transformed into a smiling poop emoji by a couple with supplies from Kmart.[8]

I'm just saying that Jim Sterling has a quite pronounced reporting style, and he attracts people with a similar style. he even is aware that his audience tends to do such things, but he assumed people would understand the email

As an added note, I am sorry again for the lack of foresight on my part. I should absolutely have seen this coming and I assumed too much.

@Nzall Yeah, and it doesn't absolve viewers of their own responsibilities.

Nzall

@Frank I didn't say Jim Sterling is the cause of everything his viewers do, but he himself admitted that what he did might not have been the smartest idea

Ugh 75 is terrible and will be for the next 60 days \o/

(the 71/75 bridge over the Ohio River is 2 lanes both directions right now)

But I guess that's better than whatever the fuck they plan to do as far as replacement eventually

@Nzall Assuming people can actually be logical isn't a hard step to make.

But then the internet gets involved, and it devolves into a giant mess.

I think I'm going to start on a Girl Genius archive binge this evening

Never read it before, but it looks interesting

and as always, here's the other side of coin

she wasn't paid for 14 months and her music was only contracted for starr mazerr and not starr mazerr dsp.

Frank

@Avery According to the contract she signed, it was a work for hire.

Which means she retains none of the rights to her work, no matter what the specific situation they hired her for was.

Avery

@Frank again, she wasn't paid for 14 months, which is apparently a violation of the contract.

Frank

@Avery How the hell do you work for someone for 14 months for no pay?

And why is she only targeting the second game instead of the first?

Avery

it was freelance. You get paid when you finish the job. Sometimes the people are terrible and don't pay for months or even at all.

Frank

It's an all-or-nothing situation there. Either she owns all of it, or none of it.

Avery

12:34

I'm not saying that going around spamming dmca strikes is the best idea, but the devs are shown as complete victims here, which is totally not the case.

Frank

Depends on how the contract is written.

Them not paying her is definitely a bad thing.

Tim Stone

Well, as Ben (Sir TapTap) said after she got a DMCA strike put on his account for a stream recording of the game, it doesn't really matter what contract disputes they had since that has nothing to do with him

Avery

Apparently she consulted a lawyer and she's in the right.

Frank

But that's a contract dispute.

Nzall

@Frank Because her contract was only for the first game, and she claims that the second game didn't fall under that contract and would have to be renegotiated

@Avery According to the contract she signed, it was a work for hire.

Tim Stone

She's punishing people who have no control over any of that, for vindictive kicks. That is Not Wise

Avery

taking down videos is bad. She might've legal right to do that, but that's bad visibility.

Frank

@TimStone More like to generate backlash against the developers, and now she's pissy it's lashing against her instead of the devs.

Avery

also yeah just saw taptap's video on /r/jimsterling

Frank

If the contract is broken, she should go to a lawyer.

Avery

12:39

Apparently she did.

Frank

These DMCA strikes are the antics of a petulant child who can't admit they're wrong, but have nothing to stand on.

Tim Stone

@Frank Especially since she's claiming she wasn't fully paid, her recourse is to get paid, not unilaterally reassert ownership over for-hire work

Frank

@TimStone Which you can't do.

Avery

Tim Stone

Yeah, it's just mind-boggling that this seemed like a good approach

Frank

12:41

So remember kids, add a rider to the contract that says rights revert to you if terms are not met by a specific point.

@Avery Saw that. Disregarded it, because her, "lawyer" would also have told her that she can't do what she's doing.

ie. I don't think she actually has one.

Tim Stone

Based on the contract in Ben's video, that lawyer is not giving her very good advice, so unless there's another contract then ??

@Frank tbh this seems most likely

Avery

well I'm not sure who to believe.

Q: My house is gone?

So I got off MC to go to bed and I got back on this morning. I was inside my 3 story house. I spawned in a hole. I thought "Lag maybe?" I hopped out and saw my furnaces and crafting table were cut off. I looked back at the hole and its exactly where my house should be. No, I didn't explore at all...

Q: How does Ditto's transform work against a raid boss?

When Ditto uses transforms in a battle, the answer provided on this question says It appears that as far as CP is concerned, Ditto simply takes on the base attack, stamina and defense stats of the Pokémon that it transforms into. These values, along with the Ditto's individual values, are plu...

@Avery that's generally how situations like this go. Everyone seems so believable but someone is obviously wrong

Nzall

Everyone has their own truth, but that truth is nothing but a reflection of reality based on their own perspective. 2 people can see the same reality and have a different truth
