Kinda, but in a trailer in the dead middle of nowhere.
@TheMattbat999 he's a fraudster who also increased the cost of a pretty important medicine (was for hiv or cancer, can't remember) by 500% overnight
@Memor-X what is wrong with this show?
It's so great
I have started reading the first link. I remember when epipen prices went up (my cousin used to have to have them)
If I am reading this, he supported that decision.
@Arperum He's 15, he doesn't keep up with the news
> In May 2014 Retrophin acquired the rights to market Thiola, a drug used to treat the rare disease cystinuria.[52] Shortly before Retrophin fired Shkreli, Retrophin raised the price of Thiola from $1.50 to $30 per pill; patients must take 10 to 15 pills a day.[53]
12:08
oh
damn
@BlueBarren which is odd for sonic
I personally think that if at the age of 15, he should start trying to keep up with the news. Watch the 7 o clock news, try and read your parent's newspaper
@Avery And he also raised the price of an AIDS drug from 13.50 to 750 per pill
Wait, it wasn't for AIDS, it was for toxoplasmosis, but it was usable while positive
He's also permabanned from Twitter for repeated targeted harassment
Usually they verify people like that lolololololololol
I watch my local news in the morning. But usally they are saying something about racism or some event going on in Greenville. Also, we don't get a newspaper that often. I watch Fox sometimes, also.
@Unionhawk I mean milo also got banned for that
12:18
Wait did he
I forgot about that
being the reason why he just uses facebook
@TheMattbat999 HANG ON! you watch fuckin' FOX NEWS? the propaganda channel for the republican party and Trump?
ok well this is happening then
I suppose I should get coffee
raises head oh boy goes back to replacing back cover of DSlite
@Memor-X that's why I had to ask what was wrong, it's what I expect and yet this show manages to smash expectations
So is anyone getting a Vega GPU? It seems like the performance is on par with 1080s but it runs hotter and consumes more power
OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Coffee acquired
12:27
installnig these trigger buttons is pain
@Nzall And I flip it off after 5 seconds because those people are very annoying. Same thing with CNN. They are annoying too. I gave up on the news when this pass election started to be honest.
@Nzall to be fair CNN is pretty much the propaganda channel for the democrats. I mean seriously isn't there any truly neutral news source in the US?
Eh, CNN is okish but it's always kind of sucked for different reasons
there's still newspapers
MSNBC is the more close equivalent to fox on the center
12:30
You can't trust many large news companies, because they all say different stuff, so you can almost never tell which is true.
In my country both news stations would probably be banned for being to extreme on the political spectrum. A bit of right or left is allowed but bashing on the opposite site like that would get you in some serious trouble here.
In the United States, for most of the history of broadcasting, there were only three or four major commercial national broadcast networks. From 1946 to 1956, these were ABC, CBS, NBC and DuMont (though the Paramount Television Network had some limited success during these years). From 1956 to 1986, the "Big Three" national commercial networks were ABC, CBS, and NBC (with a few limited attempts to challenge them, such as National Telefilm Associates [and its NTA Film Network] and the Overmyer Network). From 1954 to 1970, National Educational Television was the national clearinghouse for public TV...
everyone pushes their own narrative
the important thing is to listen to facts
and drive your own conclusions, and not listen to the ones pushed to you by the media
@Avery And equally important is to listen to multiple sources
the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke "there is literally no difference between fox news and any other network. you fool. you complete dunce"
12:33
@Unionhawk I just was a bit flabbergasted that someone was brave enough to mention they watch FOX in a chatroom as liberal as this one
Good quote, @Unionhawk
@TheMattbat999 He was being sarcastic.
the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke: "theres actually zero difference between good & bad things. you imbecile. you fucking moron"
who needs response gifs, when you have response dril tweets that work for horseshoe theory
@Nzall well, then let's show him understanding, acceptance and support
diversity is good- even when you don't like the ideology
12:36
@Unionhawk I was checking the images this guy has uploaded and some of them are, well... I'd post it here, but it wouldn't be appropriate for this
@Avery Would you say the same if he said he watched the Erdogan propaganda channel?
Yes
School. Good by everyone
@Nzall When it comes to true discussions of policy, where both parties are in good faith trying to improve life for the populace but just have different ideas about how to do it, that's wonderful. Even if I am liberal, I can gain a lot of perspective from someone who has conservative viewpoints.
That is not what the political landscape currently is, however.
12:43
come on
are you saying there are people who are working in bad faith out of spite or something?
@Nzall There are conservative users in this chatroom, not sure if they are active now, but I know they exist.
who would do that
why would somebody do that
just, go into public office out of spite against somebody else?
@Arperum mostly fiscally conservative IIRC
@Unionhawk Honestly, though. Why? :(
@Beedrill It doesn't make any sense!
Nobody would run for president and then just work only to undo everything the previous president has done
That would be psychotic
Nobody is that dumb
Come on
Be realistic here
12:48
You're joking but I'm crying.
@Unionhawk Funny you'd say that... The current president is doing exactly that
@Nzall congratulations, you have successfully located the joke
@Unionhawk Just thought I'd clarify it for those that don't get it
@Beedrill it's a coping mechanism
I've been rapidly losing my mind since friday
tfw you see "/proc/self/exe" in your process list
12:53
@Nzall I don't know if there are any people here that don't get it. Everyone here has succesfully shown they can read
@KevinvanderVelden It's a text-based medium indexed by Google. We need to make everything clear in case Trump supporters are reading this
ughhhh
DS doesn't detect the battery
meh, will work on it later
13:09
Look at all these musicians hard at work making music accompanying the greatest (and possibly only) deer surplexing scene on television
Hahah omg, that deer messed him up
looks at Twitter
blinks
When Dropbox isn't syncing 1000's of files on windows machines
that's a great scene
and you realise that it's because mac Dropbox fucks colons
and you write a script to rename all the files
and inflict syncgeddon upon everyone
13:18
> fucks colons
:|
I think you could have worded this better.
@PrivatePansy no
I dunno, this wording seems good to me
I see no problems
@Unionhawk You never go full Confederacy
@Beedrill Wording is absolutely correct
Mac Dropbox slashes colons
@TimStone What's going on now?
@Beedrill dunno
I think it's a mac fs thing
@Arperum President's back on his shit this morning
But why slashes?
In terminal, filenamess (containing iso timestamps) show with colons
Like, underscores at least.
Or dashes.
13:20
in Finder.app they show with slashes
Not sure if @fredley is missing the thing we're referencing
Not a character that just fucks over other filesystems.
I don't know any file system that doesn't work with colons
@Beedrill tbf, it's a mac, so it doesn't give two shits if it's colon fucks your other filesystem
13:21
I do know one (1) os that doesn't like it
@fredley True.
@fredley You monster, using path separator characters in filenames
@TimStone I didn't, colons don't separate paths
raises brow
in case anyone doesn't know the story of nichijou, it's a slice of life / comedy anime... drawn by a studio that specializes on action anime
13:27
Not even in windows
Starting today/tomorrow, everyone on my team but me is traveling for ~1.5 weeks.
It's going to be nice and quiet in the office.
@Avery I don't think Kyoani specializes in action
I was told so
Yeah KyoAni basically helped create slice of life
Well, they can animate action scenes really well, but most if not all of their stuff is slice of life / comedy
13:31
I think Kyoukai no Kanata might be their first action anime
And even then
It's a lot of talking
@Beedrill Might as well just take it off. Nobody would notice
@fredley This is probably true.
There's at least one thing I have to be in the office for anyway (interview).
@Beedrill cancel it
Would that I could just cancel interviews.
Well
I stand corrected
13:34
You're not allowed to admit fault in yourself this is 2016 what are you doing?
Fight for your previous understanding of things to the bitter end!
13:48
@Beedrill I'm not admitting fault you're admitting fault
hey hey
wazzap
Hi @fredley!
@Beedrill I think you meant 2016 part 2, the distinction helps prevent some confusion
13:55
No it's 2016 part 1
2016 part 2 releases in 2020
What is with people today pointing out jokes to try to clarify potential confusion?
I think there might be an Abra in the tall grass
and I don't want my Pokemons friends hitting themselves in confusion
@Unionhawk wait was last January to December 2016 part 1 or 2015 part 2?
@BlueBarren It was the prologue
BTW, I got my Wilford Brimley form recently
It's an injoke among the WoW community that the new flight form you unlock as a druid in the recent patch looks like Wilford Brimley (the "Diabeetus" guy)
@Studoku Hi
14:05
Ooo
Splatfest incoming
Flight vs Invisibility
@Unionhawk Why would you want invisibility? I mean, what is the point of not being visible beyond being able to break rules without being caught?
@Nzall NOT BEING BOTHERED IF YOU WANT PEACE AND QUIET
@Nzall There are other applications like avoiding people you don't want talking to you
I don't know why I went all-caps there.
@Arperum you can do those things with flying as well
Assuming you can fly fast enough
14:08
I JUST WANT SOME PEACE AND QUIET THAT'S WHY I'M YELLING

What is with people today pointing out jokes to try to clarify potential confusion?
@Unionhawk If you yell too much, the people you're hiding from will still find you
@Arperum Mine was starbait
Not clarification
@Arperum It's so the trump supporters know what's going on
14:10
@fredley y
@Unionhawk 4 u
@Nzall Flying at high speed through your house sounds inconvenient.
@Arperum That's why you fly outside, then to somewhere they can't follow you
Honestly, I'd LOVE to be able to fly anywhere I want on my own power, without being dependent on others
One of my most frequent daydreams is actually having my WoW mounts available IRL
@fredley that is a good room
@KevinvanderVelden In many ways, it is the ideal room
14:15
I mean, there's still users
What's the point of a chat room where you can't chat
That's like a pub where you can't drink
True, and the avatars do swoop in and out, which is quite unpeaceful
or a church where you can't pray
Or a mall where you can't shop
Put it this way: it's a chat room with no drama, no problem users, no moderation overhead, no flame wars, no stupid memes... It's pretty great in those respects.
ok, Vita Collectors Edition of Yomawari: Midnight Shadows is now available for Pre-order on NISA Europe....the second game they have already started the pre-ordering for the same game on a different console
this is real weird because NISA doesn't have a good track record of releasing their US games in the same formats in the EU so the argument "oh but they had both versions on the US Site" falls over
14:17
@fredley Most of those things are what make chat rooms interesting to me
Like, the drama, the flame wars, the stupid memes? So much entertainment. I mean, Trump is asleep 8 hours per day, where am I supposed to get my daily dose of disgust?
in Peace & Quiet, 1 min ago, by Wipqozn
I'm a jerk
I was waiting for one of the mods to do that
Only fitting that the jerkiest of jerks does it tips hat

@Nzall Y'know, that does not help with unhindered gaming at home. Or whatever locally done thing you want to do. Yes, it would be convenient for travel (assuming you would not be bothered by the weather, travel would not be super tiring, and would be sufficiently fast and comfortable.
@KevinvanderVelden thanks
@Arperum I don't have many people I need to avoid. For me, being able to get to my job and home again alone would handily beat any benefit I would get from invisibility
Also, noone is going to make a joke about the National Mall?
@KevinvanderVelden it's time again for Fun with Flags
14:22
@Nzall I have a car, I get whereever I want with as few people as I want.
@Arperum Wait, i haven't yet explained in this chatroom why I'm not interested in a car?
At least, not one i have to manually drive
@Nzall I don't know, nor care.
It is basically impossible to live in a suburb and not own a car.
Yes
I'm honestly torn on which team
On the other hand, lots of countries that aren't america do work fine without cars =p
14:24
I'll wait to see pearl and marina's pitches on the issue
@KevinvanderVelden I don't see how an area with the population density of where I live could work without cars.
You can get by without a car in America if you live in a city.
@Beedrill That's the case in most (industrially developed) places
@Beedrill What's the pop density?
I'm a bit special. I don't have any hobbies, I don't have any real friends I want to visit and I can get to my job relatively easy with public transport (it's still 2-3 hours per day though).
20,334 people in 5.6 square miles
14:26
I'm in about 2,000 per square mile
Belgium is 300 per square kilometer
It's not enough people that regularly running public transportation from place to place within my town makes any kind of sense, and things are spread out enough that travel by foot or bike is not feasible.
@Beedrill so about 3 times the population density of my town which has several bus lines and a train station
And 1 square kilometer is about 0.4 square mile
@KevinvanderVelden Ok, so maybe it's not about population density, it's about layout.
14:28
@Beedrill Just yesterday I walked 2.4 km and essentially got where I wanted to be just as fast as if I were to take the bus detour
Also america is terrible about investing in infrastructure
@KevinvanderVelden This is true.
But I honestly do not see a way that adding buses to my town makes anything any more convenient to get to.
I N F R A S T R U C T U R E W E E K
@Beedrill Yes
@KevinvanderVelden waves from the south from beyond the terrible roads
@KevinvanderVelden And the one time a president wants to do something about it, he chooses instead to support nazis
14:28
I mean technically there is a bus line that hits around here
@Arperum still better then america
It is useless to me
There's a bus that goes from my town to NYC, but there are no point to point buses within my town.
@KevinvanderVelden Are US roads Czech levels of bad?
@Beedrill There are no busses within my town
14:30
I think the US was obsessed with cars so everything was built in such a way to maximize effectiveness of travel assuming everyone owns a car.
We get a cincinnati metro me->cincinnati and a couple others I think
IIRC some years ago there was the plan/requirement to increase bus coverage in Belgium so you would have to walk max 500m to the closest bus stop.
Restaurants have big parking lots and are all on the same major road but they're not clustered all in the same area.
In the meantime we're not doing that and making it worse.
@Arperum demolish all busses
14:31
@Arperum We're currently using a hub based system, where there is only 1 bus through one route from one city to another, and if you're not near that route and want to get to another city, you usually need to take a giant detour
I think maybe part of the issue (at least in New Jersey) is that the population through the top 2/3 of the state is pretty much evenly spread out.
Aside from 2 major cities, there are no hubs.
People just live literally everywhere.
@Nzall That does not hinder my statement. Sure, it might take forever to get anywhere, but still.
Like, I would be overjoyed if De Lijn were to add a direct connection between Antwerp and Mechelen that goes over the N1 autoroute

SME

Proposed Q&A site for owners of small and medium sized enterprises

Closed before being launched.

14:32
Like I said, the only real bus route here goes to/from city center
City center is 20 miles away
Because that could easily drop the length of my commute by half an hour
wat
roughly an hour in rush hour
@Yuuki Yes
If I have to wait more than 3 minutes for a bus, I start to panic
14:33
Like I just picked a random spot in the Netherlands and there's a dense cluster of stuff surrounded by farmland everywhere.
@Beedrill Yup, you got a Netherland alright
New Jersey is not like that. The entire state is just stuff everywhere.
@fredley lol. You'd be dead here.
@Beedrill that is the netherlands pretty much
Wow, Google, pls. I was just glancing at NJ and it had a marker on it for a concert I'm going to in November with a date and time.
I guess it figured that out from the email receipt I got.
14:35
@Arperum London impatience is pretty extreme. People who stop in front of the train barriers to find their tickets should have terrible things done to them.
It also likes to put markers of items in your location history if enabled
@Beedrill Yeah it does that
My girlfriend starts laughing every time she thinks about one specific ad for the bus in Ghent "Only in ghent! we have night service! Until 1AM!"
In the Netherlands you have trains and busses until way later.
1am is terrible night service
Trains between NYC and NJ stop between 1AM and 5AM.
14:37
@Arperum what, that is a thing?
@Unionhawk That's by far the latest you can get anywhere in Belgium
I mean, the ad. I'm also laughing
@KevinvanderVelden Yes.
Like, last train I had available when I was still studying was probably around 10PM...
Standard busses seem to end at about 1AM, cities/regions have night busses that run from 1 AM to 5 AM
iirc Steamboat has night service in the winter up to 5am
(that's the only town I've been to where the busses have been worth anything)
14:41
@Beedrill We have tubes that go all night now
And London has always had 24 hours busses
@fredley The subway within NYC runs all night.
But if I went to a late enough event I wouldn't be able to get home afterwards.
@Beedrill Taxi?
I don't even want to think about what a Taxi out of NYC all the way to my house would cost.
It's like an hour out of the city.
@Beedrill rekt
lmao
I just checked google maps public transit routing
Here to home would take 1 day by public transit
@fredley the website is kinda shit
and 2 hr 37 by foot
@badp You've never used Citymapper? It's literally the best routing tool
14:47
@fredley I know what I said
the website is kinda shit
I do use the app
@badp Tru, the columnar layout is a bit cluttered
Gets the job done tho
28mins walking to a park and ride station->bus to downtown cincinnati->bus to hometown->22mins walking home
@fredley not really
in the Amsterdam area the service covers both Amsterdam and Rotterdam with the same service
@badp ymmv
which comes with number clashing
the app can tell Amsterdam's line 9 from Rotterdam's line 9 just fine
14:50
It trounces Google Maps though
the website confuses the two and thinks I saved "line 9", oh there's a line 9 in Rotterdam, I'll use that
I also get the ad for the Citymapper bus thing
which is the wrong city and in the past
@badp weeps in the corner with 200 GB download limit
@Arperum wat
I don't think I've downloaded that much yet today
@badp Yes. And that's not even the smallest/cheapest option.

Q: In Creative mode, do you have to find an End portal to get to the End?

Fredy31I want to build something in the End in Creative, but how can I access it? Do I have to find an End portal to get to the end? or is there a way to simply go to the end? (Like a command line or something) Same question could apply if you wanted to go to the nether, do you have to use your creativ...

Those are the two main providers.
@Arperum I'm so looking forward to shopping for internets later this year
but hey look at all the mailboxes you can get
@badp Pretty sure Netherlands is significantly better.
That second provider also has this:
> Your download speed at home depends mainly on the distance between the connection point and the exchange, your computer installation and the indoor cabling. Only if those three are optimal, will you be able to enjoy the maximum speed.
Note: if you don't live right next to whatever exchange thing is closest to you, you're screwed. live 4+Km away? No HD youtube for you, since you're connection just can't handle it.
15:10
spreadsheets travel stuff welp
at least now we know that flexible days will almost definitely not help
It helps if we can somehow get space availible
we won't be able to
not 3 days of it during texas week
@fredley @KevinvanderVelden hey I'm eating lunch and it's only 11am
You don't have to point out your wrongness
@KevinvanderVelden the more you say I'm wrong the earlier I'll eat my lunch
So all I have to do is say it enough that you'll eat it 22 hours earlier?
@KevinvanderVelden yes
15:17
Eh too much effort
so is waiting till 12pm to eat
So eat breakfast
I do, at 6am
hmm 6:30 may br more accurate
question
who wakes up at 6am
this guy
15:21
(the answer here is me when sleep as android decides my 645 alarm should go off at 615)
I should really set that alarm to only have a smart time tolerance of 15 minutes instead of the default 30
