@Memor-X I'm just thinking back to Civ 5 where stuff like espionage wasn't even in the base game.

Ben

12:10 AM

@Avery Lol ok. I was thinking I'd like to clean up most of that chat anyway - especially all that stuff about the "Google Analytics"

Unionhawk

@Avery nice

Avery

@Unionhawk literally unacceptable

Unionhawk

Yep

RedRiderX

@Fluttershy Is that what Martial Law means?

Fluttershy

@RedRiderX In this particular case, yeah. It means the House majority can enact a bill without a vote, or without the president signing it, I believe.

Avery

12:11 AM

martial law means that I believe

Memor-X

@RedRiderX huh, didn't notice that it wasn't in the base game. well i haven't played Civ VI so not sure if there is anything that a Civ Fan would think is missing

Avery

marital law on the other hand

RedRiderX

@Memor-X Wait Selenium the testing platform?

@RedRiderX yeh, i use it for automation and running javascript to grab data off pages

@Memor-X have you looked into the new headless browser stuff in Chrome?

Avery

I personally did

it's not as good as most say it is

Ben

@Fluttershy The American government is falling apart :/

Unionhawk

@GodEmperorDune either way even if this isn't a real thing (I honestly doubt these things), anything that passes the Senate will pass the house.

GodEmperorDune

12:13 AM

@Unionhawk pretty much

Unionhawk

And anyone who claims otherwise is a fucking idiot

RedRiderX

@Avery Aww, is it still a good replacement for something like Phantom JS?

Fluttershy

@Ben It fell apart before the primaries...

@Unionhawk unless they load it with more fuct stuff in reconciliation

phantomjs is still a thing, isn't it?

i already created a script that downloads doujinshi from Dynasty Scans. i run it like once every month and it autodownloads ~200 new doujin downloading all images and recording all the meta data like tags, number of pages, what series it belongs to. generally takes a day when the internet isn't playing up but it is a vast improvement to doing it manually

I mean, I can say that I didn't expect any less, if anything I was really hoping for at least slightly more...

In Crash Bandicoot: Warped there are 2 secret levels: Level 31, Hot Coco (reached via Level 14: Road Crash) Level 32, Eggipus Rex (reached via Level 11: Dino Might) but their buttons do not appear in the Warp Zone, so how can I see their leaderboards and the thresholds I have to beat for each...

Ben

So, off-(current)-topic can I get a little help with deciding what should be removed from the extended comments on this post? Some of the comments have been upvoted so I think that means they'll need a little more authority to clean up, if I'm not mistaken

RedRiderX

@Ben Nothing is off topic and everything is off topic all the time.

Ben

I suppose this is true

Memor-X

12:21 AM

hmm, for atleast one of my scripts i don't think this headless mode would be any good. one script i have loops though an array of links which go to a site which uses CAPTCHA and a 120 second wait timer. when my script reaches that page the script will pause, as for a command (like putting in the CAPTCHA or refreshing it) and then bypass the 120 timer

from what i am readying of that headless mode i wont see the captcha

> Specifically, Sean Hannity is on signals intelligence co-ordinating his pro-Trump message with organs of the Russian state, such as RT, Sputnik, Wikileaks and Julian Assange. However, emails co-ordinating messaging with registered agents of the Russian state are said to exist from more shows than that of Sean Hannity.

Furthermore, sources familiar with the matter say that the FBI is actively considering a referral to the FCC, in addition to any criminal prosecutions that may result for individuals not registering under FARA for coordinating with official agents of the Russian state.

The main character, in quick succession, gets summoned, gets a single party member, who promptly betrays him, steals all his stuff, and accuses him of rape. So now he's stuck with nothing but the clothes on his back, and no support from anyone.

I remember when my boxers were like that, @GodEmperorDune, but now they are like 100lb and 3ft tall... they are still cute though, and try to crawl in my lap from time to time.

GodEmperorDune

@TheMattbat999 pugs think they are the size of boxers, so it works out

The Mattbat999

Mine were that size as pups, but now are bigger than most boxers. Also have goats!

Yuuki

2:57 AM

@Frank I've read some into that and from what little I remember, I don't think I liked the characterization.

The bad guys are always comically evil bad guys (like kick puppies because we're evil kind of bad guys) and the protagonist has all the hallmarks of the stereotypical protagonist of "stuck in another world" manga.

Honestly, some of the villains seem less like people and more like evil plot devices that the author moves to build more sympathy for the protagonist.

GodEmperorDune

the formatting of this is great but i'm sure it won't onebox

Memor-X

@GodEmperorDune your right it wouldn't onebox properly

Yuuki

I mean, I guess it's part of the subversion that the protagonist's somewhat sociopathic to the point where he could be considered the villain if it weren't for how even more comically evil everyone else is.

Memor-X

i have seen oneboxed tweets not do multiline

The Mattbat999

@GodEmperorDune, I do like your dog. I have goats:

Frank

3:07 AM

@Yuuki There's actually a lot of depth to it.

GodEmperorDune

@TheMattbat999 that's not my dog, but i am a pug enthusiast

Frank

Some characters are like that, for sure.

Yuuki

I mean it does depart from other works in its specific genre niche but Moon Led Journey Across Another World accomplishes the same "protagonist is treated like a villain" premise without such bad, as I recall it, character writing.

GodEmperorDune

3:22 AM

i haven't been more glued to twitter since covfefe night

here is an explainer of what's happening

Memor-X

@GodEmperorDune wait, isn't this the "since we can't get rid of obabacare we're going to pass a bill that'll give us 2 years to replace it"

GodEmperorDune

@Memor-X kinda sorta not really

they can't repeal obamacare in full because they would need more votes

so they are selectively sabotaging parts of it to make it collapse

like cutting 2 legs off a table so it falls by itself

or is it like a hobby?

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 problem is that they belong to my mum and she's the one who decided what to do with them. i would have gotten rip of most by now

and and your avatar is stuffed up

it's just the 16px one from the looks of it

The Mattbat999

Kinda both. We don't have many animals compared to you, but we do milk them for a couple months on and off. We then pasteurize it and drink it, made cheese one time, and soon make some soap! Yeah, don't feel bad about being pure labor. That is what I am too.

Well, about my avatar, it looked a whole lot better when I first put it on there... it is a pic of a scene from Rambo 3.

GodEmperorDune

i am reduced to watching cspan-2 (public channel that shows govt proceediNgs)

The Mattbat999

They are my dads...

Memor-X

@GodEmperorDune we started off with like 15 or 20 a few years ago to keep the grass down because the local council where i am fines for long grass (understandable since it's a fire hazard for a fire prone area but hypocritical that they can take their time with fixing council land). but we have little grass now and no one is thinking that something is wrong that we're paying $1200 on hay to feed a bunch of animals who's purpose is to keep the grass down

so we're not farmers and it's not for a hobby

The Mattbat999

@Memor-X, if they weren't my dad's, I'd be short 3 goats :)

GodEmperorDune

4:18 AM

@Memor-X yeah there are some companies out here that rent goats to graze on unwanted grasses/plants

The Mattbat999

We actually are using some of our goats to help clear out a large area of thick vegetation, too. It is a different field, not the one they are in that pic

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 ha, ha, ha, glad i'm not alone in a sense with that feeling

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki i thought cruz was bad but cornyn is screaming inauthenticity right now

The Mattbat999

Also, goats have a very annoying habbit of getting there head hung in fences. They aways think the grass is greener on the other side...

Memor-X

but yeh i don't have a problem with using the sheep as lawnmowers. just that it seems pointless when where they get fed, in summer is dead and in winter becomes a bog and you can't even walk to your car without walking in sheep crap, and also the $1200 monthly bill on their food

GodEmperorDune

4:21 AM

@Memor-X yeah that is pretty expensive

The Mattbat999

Yeah, we keep ours in a separate field from our yard. They crap to much and crap out little pellets...

Also, our dogs would probably eat them... no joke intended.

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 my mum has a bunch of yakkas and they keep trying to fit their head though to eat them. there was a time where last years lambs were climbing up the stairs and jumping down from the veranda into the area where the yakkas and other plants are. we now have a panel of pool fence being used as a makeshift gate from the front stairs

@TheMattbat999 sheep poop like that too.....but also sometimes they have the runs

@TheMattbat999 the goats or the poop

The Mattbat999

One time my dad "introduced one of the goata to our boxer, and he bit the goat... that goat has never vemtured too close to another dog.

Both poop and goats to be honest... dogs are weird

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 none of our dogs to that for poop. as for the sheep our chiwawas keep an eye on them following them along the fence. the little one, Tina, though if she sees someone leave and looses sight of them she sneaks out (somewhere, it's always a new place) and one time we saw one of the Rams stomping it's hoof and was about to attack her

our Pug Eddie will sit his big butt on the stoop and bark

@GodEmperorDune despite how he acts Eddie is not a guard pug, too mentally challenged. but he's smart enough to know who doesn't smell familiar and sheep are always strangers

smart enough to know when he's being taken away and where the wheels of the car are to piss on lol

The Mattbat999

Yeah we had sheep until one night where we had to sell them a little later on. Long story short, a goat had her hed hung. On one side was a dog biting her and the other side of the fence, she was getting raped by a sheep...

GodEmperorDune

@Memor-X i meant sitting and not moving, lol

@TheMattbat999 jeez, that's messed up

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 ^

@GodEmperorDune well he'll move about one he knows i'm about or there's food

The Mattbat999

Yeah, before that, the old horny bob (male sheep's name. Had a female, too) tried humping our mini pony, and she kicked him almost 10 feet.

Memor-X

@TheMattbat999 oh my god that's hilarious!

One of those screws is a thing where govt says "we will help you out insurance companies if it is wildly too expensive to cover people so don't hike the rates up"

And trump admin is like "yeah maybe we're not gonna pay that"

So insurance companies hike the rates up

And then "see look how Obamacare is failing to keep costs low"

So they're basically making it so if you actually sit too hard the stool breaks

yes

many of these problems were known years ago but republican controlled congress didn't do anything about them

or i should say, they loudly complained about them instead of trying to fix them

best case (but unlikely scenario) is that the senate agrees to do the least controversial fixes

Through-line on healthcare: Rep leaders blew off GOP women Sens in crafting bills; cable now ignoring Collins/Murkowski to focus on McCain

the Metagame here though is basically dems are trying to stall this through 2018

because every day spent slogging through healthcare is a day that they aren't working on other things

eventually trump may get bored and tell them to forget it

right now i am imagining melania singing "burn" and it mostly works

except hamiliton is kind of a sympathetic character in it and the cheeto is not

Yeah, no sympathy there

Although I am giggling at the idea of someone going "winning was easy young man, governing is harder" to the cheeto and him making one of his pout faces

@badp nope, we squeaked through

@badp As a huge surprise, the first vote failed 45-55, the second vote 47-53, and the 3rd vote 49-51

and most surprisingly, the 3rd dissenting vote on that last one was John McCain

@badp what's this about berlusconi coming back? i thought he left office in disgrace for those creeper parties

Nzall

@GodEmperorDune Don't worry, he can't run for public office until 2019

So, Stranger Things,... Is it any good?

GodEmperorDune

@Nzall i've heard it's fun 80's nostalgia, if a bit predictable

i haven't personally seen it

Nzall

@GodEmperorDune ah, so 80s themed. 80s was before my time, and apparently it's horror, which I don't really like

GodEmperorDune

@Nzall parents guide mentions the scary parts

Nzall

Then again, I've seen Star Trek and Doctor who been described as horror as well

@GodEmperorDune So jump scares, intense final season, bit of blood and gore, rated PG-13

@GodEmperorDune you know how it is. It's eternal 2016

And tbh at this point Berlusconi is still a superior option to the True 2016 Option, Grillo

Q: I forgot the name of a game I played perhaps a year or two ago

So, I played this game a while ago (perhaps a year or so), and while I don t remember the name, I do, however, remember a couple things. I distinctly recall there being a quest which required you to ride a phoenix into some sort of castle like thing in the sky, where you could get wings or someth...

For the longest time I've been combining smaller enchantment books (e.g., sharpness I) into larger enchantment books to put on gear. I'm now in 1.12 and it doesn't seem to work anymore, it just becomes too expensive. For my sword, I started out combining sharpness I books into II's and so on. On...

@fredley Xbox Live multiplayer? Please tell me this doesn't bring back GFWL

doesn't look like it, but I'm hoping I can play it through Steam and I don't need to buy it on the Windows Store

PS+ Subscriptions are increasing

> - Annually, the price will change from $69.95 to $79.95 per annum.
- Quarterly, the price will change from $27.95 to $33.95 per quarter.
- Monthly, the price will change from $9.95 to $10.95 per month.

i believe those are Aus Prices but i assume the price change will also occur in other regions

@Nzall GFWL is dead, but you probably will need to buy it through Windows Store

Nzall

@Chippies Hang on, GFWL is dead? What if I want to play Halo 2 on the PC?

github.com/xoreaxeaxeax/sandsifter

Chippies

@Nzall I'm not sure if you can still play gfwl games, but it's certainly dead in the sense that it's not developed anymore

Nzall

@Chippies Oh, and I wanted to start putting effort into GTA IV

Chippies

@Nzall you can still play GTA IV, but there's some stuff that has to be downloaded iirc

I logged into GTA IV "gfwl" with my xbox live account (what a stupid name, I don't even have an xbox) and it didn't even ask for the serial key, which is good, because my MS account that gfwl was on is long lost

Chippies

@Nzall yeah, idk. The game works

oddly enough though, it lags on my PC

Nzall

@Chippies I'll probably have to put some effort into it

Chippies

it ran better on my old AMD Athlon x2 6400+ than it does on my i5-6600k

I will never finish GTA IV because of how poorly optimized it is and it's a shame - a lot of things in GTA IV are actually better than in GTA V

Nzall

@Chippies Is there an unofficial patch for it?

Chippies

@Nzall not that I know of, but I've never really looked for one

there's some command line options you need to use to even allow proper graphics settings, because any vram above 2gb will be shown as negative numbers

there's some other commands that are supposed to fix the stuttering, but nothing worked for me

it lagged even worse on my laptop with i7-4700HQ, so it's not just my PC :)

Nzall

10:58 AM

@Chippies Actually, I think that Rockstar released a patch for that

Chippies

@Nzall the steam version doesn't come with it by default, as of few months ago

Nzall

I mean, I remember receiving a patch for GTA IV that added Windows 10 support

really?

Chippies

I doubt it was a recent patch
