I wonder what people will think when I publish my bootloader
(or rather my fork of a fork of a bootloader)
I mean I guess it's a given that it'll get me some amount of hate ubt
let's hope that it doesn't get too chaotic tomorrow when I drop it
 
wow this windows subsystems for linux thing is quite nice
much easier than fooling around with virtualbox
(my virtualbox is angry at me because it thinks i am trying to hack it with spectre, or so the crash error says)
 
Ave
1:40 AM
@GodEmperorDune yeah wsl is decent
 
and yay, now my CI is back up and passing again
 
Ave
I prefer actual linux over wsl bc of many reasons, one of which is the fact that I can't just do sudo and become a linux goddess and do whatever I want
 
yeah if you're doing linux for intense things of course
i just needed to download some ruby thing to encrypt a file for travis CI
 
Ave
(so I can't mess with system files with sudo alone, I still have to go through the terrible windows permissions thing)
ah.
@GodEmperorDune well I don't really do much that requires linux that wouldn't be possible in wsl, but i don't do anything that requires windows at all so I just use linux
only thing I kept a windows vm for was IDA
 
what about your gaming, fam?
 
Ave
1:43 AM
and someone told me that it runs on wine, so I ditched the vm
@GodEmperorDune I have a switch, I just game on that
and rarely when I want to play games that are not on switch, I can just run them through steam linux or steam through wine
when you use the proprietary drivers it's very decent
 
I've said this before but in general I've found that very few games that are Windows only are good
I think it's usually a sign if they don't want to make a port
now I know it is common among triple A games but
 
yeah i missed the AAA games
plus its just easier to have ms office and stuff, i really don't have the spare time/energy to fool around with finding linux equivalents
 
Even on Windows I don't use Word, I can't stand it
 
Ave
I feel lucky to not need to use office a lot
 
Overwatch is probably the game of the past 4 years that's notably Windows only
I find their insistence on not even bringing it to OS X bewildering
 
Ave
1:52 AM
it runs okay under wine
or so I was told
 
@quartata pretty sure that's sombra's doing
@Ave this too
 
Really?
That surprises me, it needs DX11 and the launcher used to be completely busted
Some Wine updates must have come around

Q: Starcraft 2 API

Platypus MaximusIs there an SC2 API where I can pull buildings, units, and skills information? I know there's one right now heavily used for AI but I registered and browsed their endpoints and saw nothing for the kind of information I am looking for.

 
"hellsite" is now in my autocorrect
thats big data

Q: Minecraft forge may not have been installed correctly

How2ShrekMy friend and I are trying to set up a modded minecraft server, and everything is working fine on my end, but when he tries to install forge, one of two things happen. Either nothing happens, or he gets a message that says 'this program might not have been installed correctly' and neither option ...

Q: Modern equivalent of an emulator-loaded classic XBOX?

Caius JardI recall many years ago visiting a friend's house where he had an old (original) Xbox with a modified dashboard and the ability to launch various emulators with games from the '80s. I recall playing mario kart 64 and it being the most modern game on there I'm wondering if there's a more modern ...

user217132Could anyone help me identify a text-command game with graphic interface? All I can remember is the beginning (I think I only played a demo). You played a female character and it started by you seeing a murder through bedroom's keyhole. When you entered the bedroom there was noone, you found a se...

Q: Another question!

RandomGamer_2010now I'd like to learn how to make floating text. I've tried other ones by using invisible armor stands, but when I type my own custom name, it shows the name: Armor Stand I'd be appreciated if help was on the way. Thanks!

I voted to close this as "unclear", then retracted it, but it doesn't let me vote for a different close reason. Can this question please be closed as a duplicate of this one?

Q: Who do I give Cheesers to?

user1306322I've got 10 units of CheesRs from Ferris and it seems like some sort of side job slinging drugs. But they're actually just sticks of cheese? Anyway, I can't figure out which club entrants would like them, and I've tried giving them to random people with yellow color on their clothing or hair, and...

Q: What do the "Coffee-Bot" coffee machines do?

user1306322In the description it says "Click to get a minor/medium/big speed boost for one job" and it costs 500/1000/1500 money respectively. I got the most expensive one and I can click it at home and it makes a sound, but I didn't see the effects obviously on the following job. What does the coffee mac...

 
Or maybe the lower than expected pre-orders is because people don't trust Battlefield V to not have loot boxes or a season pass or any of that other shit. that EA can make as many guarantees as they like but no one is going to give them the benefit of the doubt until release
it's not a bad thing to pre-order something if you trust the company not to release shit and it's not like EA's going to make it easy for you to get a refund if you got screwed over for "sense of accomplishment"

@Ave Nah, just got linked to it on reddit. I would join if I had anything interesting to toot

testabcHelp plz . He is only 12 years old plz forgive him. I am playing zelda and need to ask guildians from pros in this community plz help.

 
1:40 PM
My router died this morning...
After trying some stuff, I had to unplug it and jump on the neighbor's hotspot network from his ISP
He has the same ISP as I have, but I had to unplug my router first because otherwise I was getting connected to my own hotspot, which doesn't work right now
 
user15026
@Nzall oh no :(
 
user15026
Although if you leave it plugged in if you need to do more troubleshooting, you could see if your devices have the option to "forget" your home network so that you can do stuff and not have them autoconnect
 
user15026
(generally, that's an option)
 
@Ash Nah, there isn't really much more troubleshooting I can do. I already rebooted the device. I notified my ISP, they also found it didn't work and rebooted it remotely. Neither worked
 
user15026
Boooo, that sucks. Can you get a new one yourself, or is this one of those "you gotta wait for the ISP to give you one" annoyances
 
1:47 PM
there isn't much I can do about it today since it's a Sunday, but my father is going to a sales point tomorrow to trade it in
 
user15026
Well, that's something at least

Q: What is the reason why minecraft crashes?

UniversePhoenixHenllo! Yesterday I tried to download forge and optifine (both 1.12.2) together with a tutorial from youtube. This succeeded perfectly, until I found out that my forge wasn't working... So I thought that it was because I downloaded forge twice, and that's why I deleted both programs (including ...

 
Ave
Wish youtube guides were better (on most stuff that currently interests me), tbh.
Most of them are outdated
(you might say “just make up to date ones yourself!", but stuff moves so quickly that it's almost impossible to make a guide that isn't outdated by the time you finish editing the video)

My question is which one should I buy, the standard edition or the revolution edition? I already have the four They Shall Not Pass, In the Name of the Tsar, Turning Tides, and Apoca...

 
@Ave lol, right?
 
user15026
5:01 PM
i hate that most game guides now are videos
 
user15026
like no thanks I don't wanna hear you talk
 
user15026
I just wanna know what to do
 
@Ash there's pros and cons to it, I find video guides to be easier to understand, but text guides are quicker to get through
 
user15026
I just am like "you are talking too slow"
 
there have been many times in games where text just isn't enough and I need a screenshot or a video
@Ash I always just skip through it until I hear the keywords I'm looking for :P
 
user15026
5:02 PM
Oh, yeah, i am all for pictures, it's just video goes too slow, I can parse text much faster
 
or in most cases I'm just looking for a visual artifact
sometimes screenshots aren't enough either
I used to hate video game guides, but now 90% of the time I look up guides on youtube
depends on the type of a guide though
 
i agree with yall but sometimes text descriptions are not enough and i need to see how the character is placed to do a thing
and picture is not enough
 
@GodEmperorDune exactly my point
plus if it's like, a generic weapon or armor guide or something, I can listen to it in background while occasionally glimpsing at the video
 
user15026
6:10 PM
Video guides have their place, yeah but mostly I do prefer text for speed
 
Ave
6:50 PM
@Ash it's also hard to skip to certain parts
or know where you are
"BOTW GUIDE PART 6/4385" good luck figuring out which part the thing you're looking for is in

Q: Uninstalling/Reinstalling Tiny Tower

@Yuuki is something wrong with your game or is my steam being glitchy? I keep seeing you start up MH:W quite often
 
@Chippies It seems like it's been a consistent Monster Hunter thing.
 
@Yuuki the steam message or game restarting?
 
The Steam notification.
 
ah, weird, I think I mainly just get it from you though
I mean, I do get notifications from other people, but they seem rare enough to be genuine, lol
 
user15026
@Ave this so much
 
user15026
8:59 PM
@GodEmperorDune what is this
 
Yes >.<
Video guides can go in the sea; if something really needs video, write a text guide and embed a short video for that thing specifically.
 
@Ash a set of awesome children's books about a pug
this is the first one
generally the pug is an example of what not to do, and he does something to get a comeuppance for his bad behavior
they are quite fun
ahhhh the new book is out in australia but is coming to the US soon

Only red and green. What does the resea...

so, I got to high rank monsters in MH:W and I fought a bunch of monsters and they all seemed easier than low rank... Then I got a quest to fight Anjanath and I got killed in 2 hits... almost as bad when I first encountered it at the beginning of the game...
