if I lived in a video game world I'd want it to be the world of pokemon
at least then my biggest concern would be 2 people with nice hair and a cat
@Avery No, I think the bigger concern would be frequent plots by teams of villains to completely ruin the global ecosystem.
Wait, that is Earth too
planet, sure
cinematic universe, not sure
I have never seen a Pokemon movie.
neither did I
but what I meant by cinematic universe was, well, alternate reality
in fact using that phrase instead of cinematic universe would be wiser
Pokemon would be nice.
14:25
@StrixVaria I mean it's Earth with different names for Paris and Hawaii at least
@StrixVaria who is the team of villains her on Earth
@TheMattbat999 sigh
@StrixVaria What?
@Unionhawk also parts of japan though not exactly renamed
at least for first few gens I think?
not sure.
I don't think the first few gens were as clear parallels.
14:26
@Avery that is true Kanto is an actual place in Japan (different city layout)
Only first gen,yeah
All gens, actually
I mean, matching names
Names match, I think. Cerlean (hope I spelled that right) City is where Tokyo is.
@TheMattbat999 Which person and his team has had a platform of "revive the usage of pollutant energy sources" and "get rid of existing protections for our environment so that pollutants can come back in other venues too".
14:29
Either way, all the games are based on existing Earth land forms.
IDK, Obama?
No, it's Trump.
user15026
@TheMattbat999 ...what's with the random @ sign
Obama pushed clean energy and environmental protections.
Typo, sorry
You need to find some non-biased news-sources ASAP.
14:31
I haven't watch any big news channel (Fox, CNN, etc.) Since this pass election started
It's still mind-boggling that your guess to that question was Obama.
@StrixVaria Wasn't that to, "help keep jobs for America"? Incredibly shortsighted, either way, but Trump is not known for seeing anything past his own nose.
@Frank Whatever his excuse, he still unabashedly supports ruining the environment.
Yeah, that he does. Big business > future for our children.

Q: My Minecraft lan world doesn't work, it doesn't show up on my friends computers. Help?

Peaches-infinityMy minecraft lan doesnt work and we are in the same room with the same wifi, same version of minecraft and our own accounts. We both have Mac computers if that is usful info.

I'm missing 3 items to complete my build on my Necro in Diablo 3, and I can't believe I've not seen any of those 3 at any point during my 340 levels of playing. :(
user15026
@Fluttershy That sucks :(
@StrixVaria I quit watching "news' after it became Trump's Twitter feed
@TheMattbat999 Yes, well for the 8 years prior to that you could have gotten a clue about the then-current president.
Ehhh, that was just something I didn't know, really
It's just insane that there are actually people whose idea of Obama is such that "oh, a bad thing was done by a person in power? my first guess is that Obama did it".
14:50
I was insane to begin with (according to everyone else)

Q: Is there a reward for beating the Blue Sphere bonus stages?

Steven VascellaroAt each checkpoint in Sonic Mania, you can play a Blue Sphere bonus minigame as a callback to Sonic 3. Having never played Sonic 3 myself, I'm absolutely terrible at these and haven't been able to complete a single one. Is there a reward for completing these Blue Sphere minigames?

Q: When I press F3 something covers the coordinates

Alec Murr Whenever I press F3 I see a long line of words that are covering the coordinates. I've tried changing it but nothing will work.

15:18
wait
this is not a thing you normally do right
putting signs on the wrong side of the street
Hm
I'm not sure
Usually in these cases it's a divided road, so there's room to put it on the left in the center median?
what
I mean it's for the left-hand turn lane
But I guess a road-spanning truss for just that one sign would have been expensive
but
but you can just put the same sign on the right side of the road
That would be confusing because you're turning left!
15:21
WHY EVEN PUT AN ARROW ON IT THEN
It's also pretty weird there's no traffic light there?
there is
Oh, I see it now
I assume they're trying to avoid people turning right onto that one-way road by accident
you guys put traffic lights directly on top of intersections so they're as hard as possible to see
That whole intersection is just horrible
15:23
but like
if you put that sign on that side of the road, your headlights will never light it up
The sign has lights below it
because headlights are designed not to do that
That illuminate it
???
that light directly above it isn't probably going to illuminate that sign
There's lights on those little arm things
That shine backward and up at the sign
oh
I moved around and those things are almost invisible from my new viewing point on google street view
also this piece of street is so boring the latest imagery is from September 2013
so to recap
you put signs on the wrong side of the road
Usually you'd have something like this
you must illuminate them to make up for your mistakes
15:29
Oh wait that's South Carolina isn't it?
Ah
The solar eclipse will cost America almost $700 million in lost productivity http://nbcnews.to/2wpX0ER https://t.co/312XEqRDSY
I was looking at Rust - Consequences, then the Silver Bridge, then the Silver Memorial Bridge, then Route 35, but Route 35 is boring, so I clicked to Interstate 64, which mentioned a bit at 7% grade at some Sandstone Mountain that Google swears has nothing to do with Raleigh County so I googled Raleigh County county instead and
I think this makes the incorrect assumption we were all being productive to begin with
@StrixVaria Having watched the first 3 episodes of Defenders, I can honestly say I think a person would be lost if they hadn't seen the other shows.
15:33
also you have this thing where the same road has multiple names
which I'm sure makes following roads on maps very pleasant
It's not bad
@badp Oh, I've been on that road before
@TimStone I'm sorry.
For example OH 562 is also called the Norwood Lateral but usually Google maps will say 562
Or exit 7 to here
> An example of [duplicate exit numbers] is from the concurrency of I-94 and US 127 near Jackson, Michigan. The concurrent section of freeway has an exit with M-106, which is numbered Exit 139 using I-94's mileage-based numbers. US 127 also has another Exit 139 with the southern end of the US 127 business loop in Mount Pleasant, Michigan.
oh good
I guess this is why you don't number exits to begin with
15:37
We keep being told Welsh is uselss. Well, guess my password, motherfuckers. https://t.co/dGcvuj4Bal
I'm sure there are dictionary attacks for Welsh too
@badp But then how would you know how many exits away you are so you can cut across the five lane highway?
@TimStone the nav sat tells me I'm 2km away from the exit. Also on every km board there is the distance to the next exit written on it
That requires a concept of distance, we're too busy going fast
We did have to number bridges
because for a while people would throw rocks from them
at the oncoming traffic
15:41
That's pretty messed up
We put the street name of the road the bridge is for on the bridge
say hello to A4's bridge 149
We have some bridges with the barrier things but that's because people were committing suicide I think >_>
@TimStone that might have been smarter in that it won't lead to us having to assign bridge names like "89quater"
which don't fit on those boards very well
oh here's the km sign
I think the km signs are the only ones allowed to be on the left hand side
@Fluttershy OK, thanks :)
if it helps you feel better
15:50
@StrixVaria Yep! That said, if you can make it through Iron Fist, you should definitely be able to make it through Luke Cage and the last half of Daredevil season 2! :D
this is what we had leading into our recent G20 in Taormina
I hope the various heads of state were travelling in vehicles with obscured windows
this circles nicely back to Rust I guess
I naturally didn't have to tell you it was Taormina since you can easily read that on the sign
also the "gallery is not lit" message right before a lit gallery
the exit itself is very nice though
no less than three signs begging people not to ram into the bridge
a fourth sign says that if you do ram into the bridge, you shouldn't watch and let it burn stop there, as if it would ever be okay to stop in an highway
(or at least, to do so by choice)
but we did save on the installation by wall-mounting the exit sign
we had a more proper thing in 2009
but then it looks like there was a hole in the road formed there so they put some signs to tell people to avoid it?
and at this brief glorious moment there were four pieces of infrastructure begging people not to ram into the bridge
It seems like that would just be a thing people would like to avoid
then judging by the newly minted brake marks it looks like someone did ram into the bridge
and the infrastructure investment dropped to a sign and a half
the stand for that sign is there but the sign itself is on the ground

Q: How do you get a golden rose?

NoorieArt4FunI have seen town tours with golden roses they are so so beautiful flowers can you help me??? How do you get them (animal crossing new leaf)!

@Lazers2.0 why is this getting so many downvotes?
@Ash Same reason as any other question

...thanks for that insight.
No problem

Q: Why will League of Legends not 'finish downloading'

BlazeDaBlurI got in the game after downloading but it says please wait for the game to 'finish downloading' and I've been sitting here waiting for around an hour, but it won't finish. Why is this?

@Lazers2.0 Still the 11-year-old child, I guess the system is a little slow on these things
19:10
@DanmakuGrazer, what if @Lazer2.0 responded?
user15026
@DanmakuGrazer It requires a CM to do it, and since it's the weekend, they're generally slower
@TheMattbat999 it's a feed bot. It just posts RSS feeds.
it's unable to reply.
@Ash Ah, got it
@Avery it was a joke. I know it is a bot
user15026
@DanmakuGrazer But I did confirm the request is there, so it should just be a matter of time once someone is around :)
19:12
Yeah, I wasn't doubting it was being processed. But thanks
user15026
No problem. (I mostly checked because I wanted to make sure for myself that I'd gotten it in)
I'm at the airport and I still have some Canadian Monopoly money.
Should I buy alcohol?
obviously
that's what duty free is for

Q: When do raiders start attacking your vault?

tardigradeI'm pretty sure I've never been attacked by raiders until I have a dozen or so vault dwellers, although I haven't tested this properly yet (I normally grow my vaults quite quickly). I'm aware Deathclaws are 'unlocked' at a certain population (60 for regular and 35 for survival vaults) - is there ...

The question then becomes, what alcohol?
Canadian whiskey?
19:23
vodka vodka vodka vodka vodka vodka
Maple syrup whiskey?
user15026
@KevinvanderVelden Pretty sure Crown Royal has a maple version. At least they did at some point.
No booz. Got get a birthday cake.
Or cookies
that kinda really defeats the point of duty free shops
alcohol really has a huge amount of taxation done
But booze is bad for you...
19:30
Birthday cakes are harder to carry on planes.
And alcohol is bad for you if you can't control yourself.
user15026
@TheMattbat999 In excess, perhaps, but so are a lot of things in excess
@Ash Like dihydrogen monoxide.
It's also delicious so that's a fundamental counterpoint
That's some lethal stuff.
Eh... smells bad, too. Jesus don't like it either
19:31
@Unionhawk is it?
@Yuuki gasp that causes thousands of deaths every year
I mean subjective
@TheMattbat999 Jesus? The water to wine guy?
@TheMattbat999 "wat" on that last one
> Every day, about ten people die from unintentional drowning.
user15026
19:31
@TheMattbat999 ...water into wine?
user15026
Also, like...all of this
user15026
He didn't care about the wine/alcohol, it was the drunkenness that was the problem.
Also the bible coming from a time where untreated water was 90% likely to give you some kind of disease
This is why monastic brewing is a thing
Drinking is the original Catholic pastime
@Ash, the "wine" Jesus drank wasn't alcoholic. That would be sinful, making his whole purpose void. Also, he had also said not to drink "hard drink"(alcoholic).
user15026
19:34
@KevinvanderVelden Also this! Water was hella dangerous
@TheMattbat999 again: wat
user15026
From the link I posted: "Naturally fermented wine is between 10 percent and 14 percent alcohol. Higher alcoholic wines are fortified wines. On special occasions God even allowed use of what is translated as “strong drink.” This term comes from a different Hebrew word — shekar — which is used 22 times in the Old Testament, and refers to alcoholic drinks made from dates and other fruit.

The high alcoholic drinks called hard liquor today (40 percent to 50 percent alcohol, or 80 to 100 proof) did not exist in Bible times. They are produced by distilling grain-based mash or material from other
user15026
(I can keep backing this up if you want.)
user15026
Also Psalm 104:14-15: He makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for people to cultivate-- bringing forth food from the earth, wine that gladdens human hearts, oil to make their faces shine, and bread that sustains their hearts.
Yeah I don't know what kind of historical/biblical revisionism you've been reading... but it's bollocks
user20683
19:36
Likely Calvinistic
the bible doesn't say not to drink, except for in certain circumstances, though it does say to avoid drinking in excess
user15026
@Dragonrage which makes sense. Because drunkenness leads to a whole pile of stupid behaviours and openings for sinful behaviour
user15026
A lot of Biblical stuff like that is basically "don't be an idiot"
user15026
and "here's how to do stuff so it won't kill you" (see most of the dietary rules)
A lot of any "here's how to be a moral person" is don't be an idiot
user15026
19:38
@KevinvanderVelden Pretty much yes :)
user15026
Don't be an idiot is pretty universal good advice :)
@Ash correct. and generally when the bible says not to drink is when you could be a temptation to someone who is having problems with alcohol
Beer > Wine anyway, imo
I mean they both smell horrible so I don't really care

For sure :)

I just like the idea that you'd be willing to bring me fruit
@Ash You can't bring misshapen pomelos harvested by trees struck by lightning unless it's the second Wednesday of a month with 30 days in it.

wtf is a pomelo
The pomelo, Citrus maxima or Citrus grandis, also called pomello, pummelo, pommelo, pamplemousse, jabong (Hawaii), batabi or jambura (Bengali), zambura (Sylheti) or shaddock, is a natural (non-hybrid) citrus fruit, similar in appearance to a large grapefruit, native to South and Southeast Asia. The pomelo is one of the four original citrus species from which the rest of cultivated citrus hybridized. == Etymology == Citrus maxima was originally called "shaddock" in English, after the captain of an East India Company ship who introduced it to Jamaica in 1696. The word "pomelo" has become the more...
