I don't think @Sterno knows who jesus is
 
I don't think you know who Jesus is.
 
He started soliciting suggestions for new reviews on Patreon in case there's anything you really want him to maybe review
 
Have you met Jesus?
HAVE YOU?
 
I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT JESUS IS INSIDE ALL OF US SO THEREFORE YES
 
Here's his YouTube description of his review:
 
2:00 PM
Yeah, I did.
cool guy.
 
> On this rainy night I review the Lucky Charms Shake from Burger King! I am wearing a white short sleeve dress shirt, a dark pattern necktie from the 1950s/60s and black pleated dress pants.
Important to know what he's wearing
 
@Unionhawk ewwwwwww
 
@Sterno I have my own Personal Jesus
 
I did not give Jesus consent.

peak bridge.
 
2:02 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Looks neat, but you can do all of this in vanilla afaik
Nov 15 '16 at 15:18, by Yuuki
@Unionhawk How many times have we achieved peak Bridge now?
 
@fredley it has trains sitting in a depot idling (empty) and when a train stop requests items it sends a train to a pickup depot to get them and then to the requesting thing
Don't think you can change orders of a train =p
 
Just have 50 trains
 
@fredley thrice so far
@Unionhawk how about both?
 
"This is what changes everything when it comes to Burger King"
 
@KevinvanderVelden You can put in mine -> depot -> input -> depot -> mine, but only enable those stops when they're relevant
train will just skip 'nonexistant' stops
 
Hmm that'd work
 
Darkest Dungeon is $10 atm, btw. I've been playing it a lot lately. It's a good time
 
@TimStone Goddammit
It's like they knew what he wanted
 
The expectation is that they'll actually make the bill worse
Then throw in that cash to make moderates bend
HAHAHAH GOOD TIMES
 
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
We need to eliminate every Rand Paul type
Good thing I don't live in Kentucky otherwise that'd be my job
and also I'd be living in kentucky
welp, it's not over until it's actually dead
and then it won't be over until at least january 2019
 
2:10 PM
And Ted Cruz
 
but at least we have independence day recess to turn the heat up
 
@Yuuki should just bribe him with the sweet sweet taste of Campbell's soup
 
was Ted the one to admit that or did his wife tell that story?
I forget exactly how embarassing that was
 
I dunno but after he elbowed her in the face I wouldn't be surprised either way
 
@Sterno Play any of the new DLC? That any good?
 
2:14 PM
@HazyKingdom I like it. The curse can be annoying until you learn how to manage it, but the dungeons are really cool
Basically fixed megadungeons that you continue progress on from where you left

Q: Asteroids as portable gas stations?

vianna77I never saw an Asteroid before because I was playing Kerbal before it was a thing. Apparently, they are source of Ore and when I grab them with the Klaw, they become "part of the ship" and you can even transform it into a space station, right? So, my question is: Is the amount of Ore in the as...

 
@Sterno Sweet, I'm probably going to pick it up. Bummer it isn't on deal for the summer sale though.
 
Well, it just came out a week ago
 
Discounting something so new generally hurts it quite a bit longterm
 
I'm digging the new hero. The Flagellant.
 
2:26 PM
He's pretty powerful
 
He starts off a little weak, but if you have one of those 'under 50%' abilities, good lord.
He can manage himself pretty well, but at a campsite he's useless to others.
 
@HazyKingdom What game are we talking about?
 
His bleed attack is pretty good
 
@Nzall Darkest Dungeon.
 
And his bleed resist makes him pair well with Occultist heals when he does want 3rd party healing
 
2:28 PM
So reactions to Valerian seem generally favorable.
And early reviews for Spider-Man are "it's a Marvel movie" which is somewhat disappointing but at least they didn't whargarbl it, I guess.
> Fox News host isn’t worried about millions losing insurance since “we’re all going to die”.
Wait, these are the same people ranted on about Obama death panels and Benghazi, right?
 
@Yuuki I saw a review that gave it a 9.5 out of 10. :o
 
@Fluttershy Well, "it's a Marvel movie" doesn't mean it's a bad movie. Just means it sticks with the Marvel formula.
Which is consistently good-ish but does end making some of the heroes seem monotone.
Like Stephen Strange is basically magical Tony Stark. Which he kinda is in the beginning of the comics, I guess.
 
@Yuuki "it's a Marvel movie" seems like a much better review than "it's a spider-man movie", tbh
 
2:45 PM
Spider-Man 3 would've been a great movie if Sony didn't do Sony things.
Raimi didn't want to use Venom (he was planning on sticking with Sandman and Harry) but the Sony execs demanded it.
 
Does Marvel officially have Spider-Man movie rights back or is this like a collaboration of some sort?
 
Collaboration.
Ish.
Basically, Marvel makes the movie, Sony does the marketing (which is why we had that terrible spoileriffic trailer and some rather tone-deaf posters) and collects a share of the revenue.
 
As someone who only sees Marvel movies and generally knows nothing about Marvel comics, it's weird for me to consider Spider-Man being mixed in with X-Men or Avengers, but apparently that's normal in the comics.
X-Men I think is also segregated movie-wise because of a similar deal in the past.
 
Yeah, Marvel sold off a lot of the movie rights in the past.
 
@Beedrill that's pretty common, and yes, IIRC Fox has the X-Men
(which is why the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are no longer "mutants" in the Ultron movie)
 
2:49 PM
It's a collaboration in that Marvel can't legally do a Spider-Man movie without Sony because Sony has the movie rights, but Sony supposedly didn't touch the development of the film at all.
Which is good because Sony has evil, evil, toxic hands when it comes to comic book movies.
 
The Marvel comics have lots of crossovers, which always weirded out my partner, who is more used to movie continuities (and other comics) where each one is completely isolated
IIRC Spidey got offered a slot in the Avengers twice.
 
@ToxicFrog It doesn't help when there's continuity reboots too.
 
Iron Man and Thor, of course, were founding members in addition to having their own comic series.
 
Fuck I thought I had no work meetings today but a reminder just popped up for one in 10 minutes.
 
Oh, and Spidey is tight with the Fantastic Four, too.
 
2:50 PM
This is the worst.
 
I largely blame that (continuity reboots) on the Western comics audience's seeming tendency to get really attached to one character (and a specific version of the character at that) and never want their comics run to stop.
 
The X-Men seem to keep more to themselves.
@Yuuki yeah, it would be a lot better if comic series were actually allowed to end, IMO
 
I keep forgetting I can't put an abomination and a Vestal together. Grrr.
I guess I can get buy with Occulstist heal as long as he's got the 15% healing charm
 
@MadMAxJr Occultist is the only healer that can go with an abomination, IIRC.
 
Also what's with this slightly crappier plague doctor character with the censer?
 
2:54 PM
> 7 Celebrities You Didn't Know Were Gamers
> Olivia Munn
wat
Didn't she become a celebrity because she hosted a TV show about games?
 
@MadMAxJr Antiquarian is for a very, very specific purpose. I avoid them altogether.
 
What is she for?
 
@MadMAxJr Treasure hunting. She lets you carry more loot, but is practically useless in combat.
 
Ooooooooh.
Does she give me another page or at least a row?
 
@MadMAxJr She increases the size of gold stacks, so they don't take as many inventory slots.
 
2:57 PM
I keep running into these space consuming journal scraps. Do I need to take these to the end or just read them and toss them?
 
And she can find more antiques post-combat, I think?
 
@Yuuki yes
 
@GodEmperorDune It's like starting off your list of "famous people you didn't know were scientists" with Stephen Hawking.
 
I finally got some heroes to resolve 5.
Resolve only goes to 6, yeah?
 
3:21 PM
@Yuuki this is new to me
 
Halp
Floof attack
 
give it the pets
 
Alternatively water
Water reduces floof
 
but then it stops floofing
 
That is the point yes
 
3:27 PM
why would you want the floof to stop?
 
Because I don't really like dogs?
Something related to that
 
yay dog-dislikers unite
 
Tend to prefer cats.
 
Wow wow wow
hold up people
 
Note: Turkish Van Cats do not turn into vans, as cats in Persona 5 do.
 
I had a friend that bred corgis every late spring. They are little ground rockets that want to sniff groins.
 
@BlueBarren Meh, that's barely even a dog, it's a hairy sausage
 
Cats are slightly less derpy and thus my preference.
 
Less derp than corgi is a low bar
 
3:46 PM
@KevinvanderVelden I hope you like sausage
 
Depends on the type of sausage
I don't like hairy sausages
 
...
I plead the 5th
@Avery this is like torture. You've linked me to videos that aren't blocked but I can't load them either
 
Cats have banned dog videos.
 
this is why cats are monsters
dogs would never ban cat videos
 
Well of course, dogs can't use internet.

For some reason that reminded me to check bird rights activist twitter
 
4:22 PM
le sigh
so indigenous people are going to be protesting Canada day as is their right and they should if they feel the need to. So they have no one the protestors on TV being interviewed and she brings up that it reminds her people about the colonization. It's like I know that happened and I'm sorry but like I'm here now what else am I supposed to do :o
Can't we celebrate that we're all Canadian now and not just you?
But that's not the only reason they're protesting soo
 
4:37 PM
ew do you ever realize you made a lot of spelling/grammar mistakes in a message you can't edit anymore?
that's the worst
 
YUP
Email that includes the big boss.
 
RIP
 
I misspelled 'mistake'. Which in hindsight is kind of funny.
 
@MadMAxJr reminds me of ford prefect
 
@BlueBarren That's a bit of an oversimplification, but yeah, I get it. I'm perfectly willing to have an honest discussion with them, but please at least show some positivity first.
 
4:54 PM
@BlueBarren wait what
if someone protested on our independence day, they'd be arrested for terrorist activity.
 
Isn't Canada Day 7/1 or am I dumb
 
user15026
@BlueBarren well, we kinda did screw up a lot of things (see: residential schools, etc) in like...relatively recent memory. So...yeah. It's a complex thing that isn't just "we are all Canadian now"
 
user15026
@Unionhawk yeah, it's July 1st
 
user15026
But since it's the 150th year since Confederation it's a bigger deal
 
<insert obvious "both" response here>
@Ash Neat
 
user15026
4:58 PM
Much more the celebration is happening
 
@Unionhawk Can't it be b---- oh, ok.
 
> Required method for Designer support - do not modify the contents of this method with the code editor
YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO VISUAL STUDIO I DO WHAT I WAAAAAAAAAAANT
(the designer adjusts as long as you don't do anything crazy anyway)
 
5:18 PM
@Ash I was specifically talking about the colonization. There are definitely other issues with the indigenous people that need to be addressed. Luckily Trudeau seems to focus on them a lot
 
user15026
@BlueBarren But you can't really pull the colonization out as a separate thing. It's because of the colonization that all the other things happened.
 
@Ash how can I not? This is something my ancestors did without my input at all. I don't see why I should be blamed for that at all; if it were me I wouldn't have done it at all
 
user15026
Okay, I am politely stepping away from this conversation because you're massively oversimplifying a very large and complex issue, and saying "but I wouldn't do it" is a) unrealistic and REALLY easy to do from a place of privilege after the fact and b) dismissive of the very real issues that still are systemically present because of all of it.
 
user15026
I do not have enough spoons or knowledge or anything to educate you here, and I apologize for that. \
 
I probably shouldn't have opened up that can of worms in the first place

Q: How to decrease XP you get for an achievement in Google Play Games?

Jarred AllenI was playing this game and, when I got to the tenth level in the game (no major feat at all, probably worth only a couple hundred xp), the game gave me 10,000 XP. I feel like taking the full 10,000 XP would make me a cheater at the Google Play levels, so is there a way I could reduce the amount ...

 
user15026
@TimStone a semiautomatic from a foot away oh god
 
5:28 PM
What's worse is that you figure he probably could have gotten away with a blank and the book he had already shot into |:
 
@Dragonrage I was out of country for all of the june :)
 
@Ash Not just any semiautomatic pistol, a Desert Eagle, which takes a .50 caliber bullet.
 
inb4 june's not over yet
 
> The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (Section 326) requires that the following notice be provided to you:
Oh boy this is probably good
 
@Chippies hey you're back, welcome!
 
5:29 PM
@BlueBarren thanks
 
user15026
@MBraedley yeah, I just...aaaaaa nope
 
Aaaaa sallie mae pls >_>
update my account already
it should be 0
or maybe like a thousand of accrued interest
 
Is it really a bigger deal that they used a semi-automatic? It's the caliber that's going to shoot through the book or not
 
@Unionhawk Are you being charged with federal fraud, because that's what it sounds like. EVERYONE, @Unionhawk IS COMMITTING FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN FRAUD!
 
@BlueBarren 660ti was very popular.
 
5:34 PM
@MBraedley Nah it's just a notice about how the USA PATRIOT Act allows/requires them to gather my full name ssn etc to identify me
 
@Chippies how did you just remember that off the top of your head?
 
@BlueBarren that 660ti was popular?
 
I wasn't aware that was in the scope of PATRIOT but you know, the thing is huge it's not really surprising
 
it wasn't that long ago
 
@Chippies yes, this was before my time
 
5:35 PM
it was also the first time I started following PC hardware since I built my gaming PC in 2009
 
are you sure? 2009 was 8 years ago
 
@BlueBarren which is why I said "since". As in, the nvidia 600 series was around when I started following the hardware again
 
and remember 8 years = 1/2 of an @Avery
 
@BlueBarren and @Ronan
 
after I built my PC, I didn't follow it much anymore, since I didn't have the money for upgrades anyway
 
5:38 PM
so you were following it but didn't get it so what did you have?
 
but I was on the market for something new around the time 600 series were around :P
 
Why am I being... oh, memes.

I got a gaming laptop with gtx770m
at the time, the (very limited) portability was something I desired, so the laptop did good
but the mobile cpu was a huge downer for anything cpu intensive
so now I have an i5-6600k, 24gb ddr4 ram and amd r9 390 :)
mobile cpu's are garbage for any MMO's or anything else that needs a decent cpu

Q: How to port forward a minecraft server with Century Link router

Amazonbear12I need help. I downloaded the Server console for minecraft, and tried to portfoward it(i think i did it right). But when i try to run my server....it opens the console and closes it instantly. Here is my server.properties: Minecraft server properties Tue Apr 04 16:43:30 EDT 2017 spawn-protecti...

 
@Chippies we have the same CPU
 
5:42 PM
My current laptop is like i7+970m I think
 
@Unionhawk 970m was a huge upgrade from the 770m I have in my laptop. Laptop gpu technology really improved since then
 
Yes
 
but your i7 is probably only a minor upgrade from the i7 I have in my laptop
 
I think I moved similarly or better
 
Facebook's $15 /hour counter-terrorism contractors with no real training are given full access to FB private messag… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/880462025046073345
 
5:43 PM
honestly, I didn't even mind the gpu, since I could lower the settings
 
I don't remember if my old one is 600 or 700 series
 
but in any game requiring a decent cpu, no setting changes would help
 
But I do remember it nearly catching on fire trying to run TPS and Elite
 
@TimStone Ahhh that's the good stuff, inject that nonsense right into my veins
 
there were many MMO's that ran in mid-40's on any settings
there was one that couldn't reach 30 fps on highest settings and gained like 1-2 fps on lowest
 
5:45 PM
@Chippies well hope you had fun. I was able to find our earlier conversation on pc parts so I was able to find which parts to get.
 
The worst was in the belts, where the criminals liked to hang out
Which is why I liked beacons better lol
 
@Dragonrage did you build your PC already?
I brought my portable guitar amp from Latvia and turns out the power adapter is only rated for 230V :/
 
@Chippies that's a good voltage though
 
@KevinvanderVelden sure, if you're in Europe :)
most power adapters are fine with 100-240V range
this one disappointed me
 
@Chippies europe is (mostly) a good place though ;)
 
5:51 PM
@KevinvanderVelden mostly :P
 
I had a moment of weakness
 
if I have to choose between Newfoundland or Latvia, I choose Newfoundland though
 
I bought some more food on top of my lunch
 
the food is nice and cheap in Latvia, but I do not like the people there
 
@Chippies Just stick to the northwest related bits
 
5:53 PM
I wonder if 12V would hurt the amp if it requires 9V...
 
Yes, it would fry it most likely
 
I guess I'll have to find 6 rechargeable AA batteries for now and see if I can order a 110V version of the adapter for cheap...
 
@Chippies find 3V using LED, blind urself while you deafen yourself!
 
@djsmiley2k that would require some sort of extra wiring (and an LED which I don't have). I do have a 12V power adapter with a matching plug tip though...
 
5:58 PM
I did find 6 rechargeable batteries though, I just wish I had a multimeter or something else to check how well they're charged
I keep wanting to separate my rechargeable batteries into full and not-full, but I never do it
 
@Chippies yea I just upgraded a few of my parts.
 
@Chippies heh
i just have enough for all the devices we have
so.... every battery I find, is dead
;D
 
@Chippies in the interim there's variable power supplies sold in most electronics places that are switchable in both plug and power

Q: ALL My Minecraft Saves Are Gone

AngelHELP! I lost all my minecraft saves, I can't download maps, and NO I didn't take out my saves folder nor did I Delete the folder its in my minecraft folder with all the maps I had previously but they won't show up!? Why is this can anyone help me!? Ps. I'm on a MAC

 
They're expensive but it's handy to have one around
 
6:08 PM
@KevinvanderVelden that is something I was thinking of. Not sure if I could get one locally though, most likely would have to order online

Q: Do we the [left-4-dead-series] tag?

Baskakov_DmitriyThe only question with left-4-dead-series tag was this question about Jesus room in No Mercy campaign, present in both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2. Do we actually need it, as it no longer applies to any question and kinda overlaps with both left-4-dead and left-4-dead-2?

 
That's an expensive burrito napkin
Unless it's used, but then it has other problems

did we fix @badp's car ideas yet
 
I dunno, are you still driving on the left?
 
Shockingly a provision to revoke the AUMF cleared a House committee hurdle today
 
(Link is a mirror for a recently aired NRA ad)
 
AUMF?
 
6:44 PM
Authorization for Use of Military Force (against Terrorists)
 
@Yuuki the NRA is only anti-government when it's a government that they think might put restrictions on their ability to shoot people they don't like in place.
 
Basically the power we gave Bush to go into whatever war he felt like so long as it was about stopping Al Qaeda
 
Just for background, the Armed Forces have been operating under the same AUMF given back in 00s.
 
The short of it is that it's a step toward the President (whoever it may be) no longer being able to unilaterally invade the Middle East
 
@ToxicFrog Well, the commonly spewed line is that citizens need the right to arms to defend themselves against a totalitarian government.
Which is hilarious now that the NRA is advertising that citizens need the right to arms to attack other citizens that don't kowtow to a government, totalitarian or not.
 
6:47 PM
@KevinvanderVelden what was the plan for saturday evening meal?
 
@Yuuki s/totalitarian/liberal/ and suddenly their position becomes entirely self-consistent.
More charitably, they define totalitarianism along one axis, likelihood of enacting gun control laws.
 
@Yuuki They're not anti-government, they're anti-government-that-doesn't-do-exactly-what-they-want
 
Any government that does that, or wants to do that, is totalitarian; a government that doesn't isn't, no matter what else it does.
 
PEOPLE WITH GUNS ARE FREE PEOPLE
 
And, ipso facto, any opposition to a non-totalitarian government must itself be totalitarian.
 
6:52 PM
@Arperum eat together then play more games
 
EVEN IF THEIR GOVERNMENT HAS NUKES
 
We'll figure out what/where to eat on saturday, there's plenty of options around =p
 
The Trump government isn't enacting gun control laws; ergo it's not totalitarian; ergo the people opposing it are; ergo we need guns to shoot those people.
 
YOU JUST GO TO WAR AGAINST YOUR COUNTRY
 
@KevinvanderVelden Check. Sounds good.
 
6:52 PM
@badp actually they are the slaves of bullet sellers.
but shush, we don't talk about that fact ;)
 
(the uncharitable interpretation -- which I honestly suspect is more likely -- is "they want to shoot black people, like, really a lot")

The less we know the more expertly we know what we do know
