No diss .. Please explain to me what’s Dril? https://twitter.com/portal_narlish/status/1031289640471285760
this is beautiful thing that's happening here
 
Hello!
 
1:02 AM
hi ya
 
1:17 AM
How are you?
 
@GodEmperorDune bwahahahahahahahaha
ohhh
oh im crying
I've said this before, but Ice T really is the closest a celebrity can possibly get to weird twitter
Like, they can't actually be it, it's not allowed
 
@quartata and he did it entirely accidentally, it seems
 
kinda like in BG2 where you have the halfling that really wants to be a paladin but can't because the churches are racist I guess
 
1:33 AM
@TheMattbat999 good. dealing with workplace bureaucracy just to get MS SQL Server installed (assuming that's the reason why i can't install it) for a dev environment
yourself?
 
@Memor-X finally figured out what was wrong with my save/load for a text game I am doing as practice. Also made tremendous progress on my RPG, Stardust Kingdoms.

Q: How do I take the Government Island Central Authority Jirga Para Lhao Sites Photo?

Memor-XI unlocked the Jirga Para Lhao and Hekseville Sites Photo Collection after doing the side-quest for that researcher at the start of the final Chapter. one of the photo hints points to the Government Island of the Central Authority however So how do I get the photo?

 
@quartata you could probably do a motion to suspend the rules to make it happen
But that'd require a 2/3 majority
Relatedly, we had a motion to call the question today and oh boy the discourse on that after (literally vote no on call the question if you think more discussion should happen???)
(the call the question vote was unanimous what)
Meanwhile
this really is a next level meme

Okay, I am mostly loving Okami except it can get a little annoying if I don't do what it wants me to right away
 
@Ash how do you mean? i don't recall anything like that

Q: How do I find out what my player id # is in the trainers club?

Monica DevineI can't figure out how to get my player id # for the trainers club. I know I can do extra things, especially since I'm at level 35

Q: Sleeping Dogs shows Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error

123iamkingthis happens to Sleeping Dogs, not Definitive Edition. I like to play the old version because it's lightweight, I can save my disk space. I completed the game with no problem, but suddenly now, the game shows this error each time I start the game after a few minutes. this application has req...

 
user15026
@Memor-X maybe it is because I am still close to the beginning but Issun can be a little annoying
 
@Ash well the game is Zelda like from what i have read about (reason why i got it) and Issun is like Navi in a sense
 
user15026
3:50 AM
I guess if I think of it that way that makes sense
 
5:53 AM
Morning chat
It is approximately one early too many to be awake
 
@KevinvanderVelden so 8 am then
 
Approximately yes
(5 minutes to 8 to be exact now)
My body decided that today would be a good idea to wake up at 5-ish
 
6:29 AM
Audrey (4yo) and I saw a big rainbow flag while in West Hollywood today. Audrey: Daddy, what’s that? Me: A rainbow flag. It reminds us that there are lots of different kinds of people in the world & that we should love everyone. Audrey: Well I already love everyone, so I WIN.
 
there is no other way to read that without thinking of how cute that response is
 
yawns Damnit body, why do you want to sleep now?
turns on loud metal music
 
@KevinvanderVelden coffee, it needs coffee
 
Ewwww, nope

Q: Moving Nintendo eShop games from a 3DS to a New 3DS

BingI bought a Nintendo 3DS the week it came out. Loved it, but it failed to recognize my 64GB microSD card for external purchases. (Not a problem, expect that I realized "hey, if I buy Hyrule Warriors, Smash Bros, etc. via virtual download I won't have to bother carrying extra cartridges!") Since...

 
Is it against the rules of Stack Overflow to upvote questions created by coworkers?
like something related to vote manipulation or sockpuppeting or something like that
 
Ave
8:05 AM
@Nzall depends
are you upvoting for the content, or for the person?
did you naturally find that answer or were you sent a link?
if it is for person, don't do it. if it is for content and if you found that answer yourself, then do it. if it is for content but you were sent a link... well I guess it's sort of gray area on this one. guess it depends on it you're willing to take the risk.
 
@Ave The link was included in a comment in our bug tracker. The question content itself seems mostly fine. it includes the error message and proper tags, it asks a proper "can help multiple people" question rather than just posting the code and asking "it doesn't work", it did research. The only things I notice are that he didn't include our own code (although we have a lot of code) and that he has a signature.

Q: Can you use a Hibernate 5.2 StatelessSession in an OSGi environment (like Karaf) without the use of JTA?

Frank SI'm trying to use a StatelessSession to do some bulk inserts in an OSGi environment (Karaf 4.0.7), but when I try to commit my transaction I get be.ikan.lib.orm.base.exceptions.PersistenceBrokerException: org.hibernate.TransactionException: Cannot retrieve the TransactionManager OSGi service! at...

that's the question
 
Ave
I'm not going to say anything because this is rather tricky and a mod etc might give a better answer
(you already listened to parts of it if you watched Hareton Splimby's Serious Lore Analysis on Ctrl+Alt+Del)
 
8:53 AM
@Nzall Generally speaking, so long as you are voting on the content (and not the user) you should be fine. As this is a person who you may know personally/professionally - be a little extra critical of the reason why you are voting on any given one of his/her posts, and avoid seeking out their posts to vote on.
 
9:07 AM
Weird, I just got a call from the Netherlands from someone I never heard of, and he said I called him a moment ago
 
@Nzall HANG UP THE PHONE!!!
Its probably a scammer
 
@TheMaskedRebel Already hung up immediately
 
Block the number too?
@Nzall
 
@TheMaskedRebel Just blocked it. Though, wasn't there a scam where someone called you and then connected you through to a paynumber?
 
What was the number?
Can you post it here?
 
9:15 AM
+31 6 44 50 12 45
That's how it's displayed on my phone
Oh, I'm now worried that my number might be caller spoofed
 
@Nzall It's nothing to do with your number, it's them doing the spoofing.
 
@fredley No, I mean that my number might be used to hide someone else's number
like, that scammers use my number to hide their own number
 
@Nzall That's not likely
@Nzall This scam was they called you, asked you to call them back.
 
9:31 AM
@fredley No, it was not like that. I never called him, and he called me saying I called him a moment before he called me. I said I never called him before and hung up
 
@Nzall That's because you weren't a confused elderly person. It's just a scammer, don't sweat about it.
 
@Nzall that's a perfectly normal dutch cellphone number
Don't always assume malice. It can just be fatfingering something

Q: King of Fighters - how to drive cancel?

And WanI am trying to do King of Fighters 13 tutorial, but I can't seem to drive cancel. What does drive cancel mean? How do I drive cancel?

 
10:18 AM
Well that's been a long time coming
This desk has been on it's last legs for a very long time,and it got closer everytime my cat jumped up on the keyboard
 
Not pictured: Socks
 
There's a cat in there though
 
Not pictured: pants
 
Ave
pictured: slippers
my table's also doing the same btw. I should really get a new one once I get a job (well, if I get a job)
 
10:44 AM
@fredley fun fact: I'm almost never wearing pants when I talk to you

For example right now I'm wearing shorts

10:56 AM
nintendo switch scene is a scene filled with mature people
who understand How Stuff Works
I'm going to go ahead and implement Compression to my bootloader code (which can only be 123kb btw) and add an sram chip on our board (and increase costs by at least a dollar)
oh and it's totally not like my PR is coming from a repo that took the bootloader code from 122kb to 75kb

Q: Is there a mod for terraria android to stop the crimson/corruption from spreading?

Joe CroninStopping the crimson or corruption from spreading takes incredibly long and just isn't fun. Is there a way to maybe change some code in the files or download a mod to stop it?

 
Ave
Oh and apparently that's the head developer of retronx project. Amazing. Wish it was some rando so I could keep pretending that it's only end users that are terrible, but nope, everyone sucks.
 
11:12 AM
@Wipqozn 8/8
 
@fredley at first I was like 1/8, but then I saw the full picture
 
Every one of you is horrible except Ave
 
11:25 AM
@Wipqozn Did it hurt when your drawers dropped?
 
Ave
@KevinvanderVelden how am I not horrible
 
You didn't do the hobbit/hobbyte joke
 
Ave
ah
 
@KevinvanderVelden Neither did I
 
You weren't on screen when I said it
 
11:31 AM
@KevinvanderVelden So I'm not horrible either?
 
Sure, let's go with that
:p
 
11:52 AM
@Ave Please shitpost something so that @KevinvanderVelden's hatred can be universal
0xff / 0xff
0xC0FFEE / 0xDEADBEEF
 
Ave
12:19 PM
@fredley tabs are better than spaces
is that good enough
or should I talk about fusee-gelee's hobbyte limits
(and about what I did about reducing the hobbyte size, and why it's good)
 
@fredley = 0.00338561881
 
@PrivatePansy I think you mean 0x3b5de142
 
@Ave ave.horribleness ++;
 
12:41 PM
I think puns about halflings are problematic. They're hobbitualy offending
I should probably lay off on those puns, they're hobbit forming
 
@Nzall.horribleness = INT_MAX;
 
Last one, and then I'm going to prepare my hobbituary
 
"I used to have a job drilling holes for water. It was well boring."
 
@fredley.horribleness = FLOAT_MAXVALUE;
 
@KevinvanderVelden Hang on, if I make one more pun, my horribleness will overflow and it'll reset to INT_MIN? I have this in the baggins
 
12:44 PM
No, the setter has logic to throw an overflow exception and hardcrash the universe
 
@Nzall of course not, I'm using an arbitrary precision/size class, the only limit is the working memory
 
@KevinvanderVelden Guess I'll have to make a hobbit of terrible puns. I'm going for broke here, like Bilbo's plates
 
starts hiding posts Aaah so much better
 
@KevinvanderVelden You can hide posts?
 
I want to do science to find out if you used hide posts or ignore user
(the science would be force refresh)
 
12:47 PM
Ah
I was wondering what the science would be
 
Hang on, you can force someone else's window to refresh?
 
I could just not give you any results
 
@Nzall Yes, when your ownership status changes your window refreshes
Though it might not be a full refresh
idk
 
I believe it is
Also the kick option but we shouldn't abuse that. We should only abuse giving people extra privileges
 
@KevinvanderVelden I apologise for all the hobbit puns. They were mostly in poor taste
 
Ave
12:49 PM
@KevinvanderVelden yay
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah the kick button sends up a signal beacon to all mods and owners in the room to yell at this person for probably doing an abuse
at least add/remove only does an audit message
 
@KevinvanderVelden did you get my apology? Again, sorry I took it that far, I should have stopped earlier
hmm, if he is ignoring me or hiding my posts, I think he might be missing my apologies
 
refreshes because the joke stopped being funny Wait you thought I was actually mad?
Sorry, no I was only joking
I do hate puns though >.>
(I mean I had people hidden but)
 
@KevinvanderVelden Really? Like, I get that they're not really good comedy, but why hate them?
What do you consider so horrible about them?
 
12:56 PM
I mean I mostly had puns that are that bad
Because they're bad
 
> What do you receive when you ask a lemon for help?
> Lemonaid.

more you say?!

bad puns is an oxymoron

That's pretty awesome, they're updating the content from season 1 with graphics and gameplay improvements from season 2
Also it sounds like if you get the season 2 season pass (🤔) you get the season 1 missions for free, if I understood correctly?

Q: When do the daily World Emissary quests unlock in World of Warcraft?

ChildishforlifeLooking at my map, it displays that I will receive another Emissary quest "tomorrow", as well as in 2 days and 3 days. At what time do these reset? Is it based off of server time, or a realm time in which everything ticks over? Is this the same as the daily reset for heroics/mythics etc?

 
Ave
hot take: css shadows are ugly
 
This is a lukewarm take tbh
 
Man, I wish the office didn't block google docs
 
@Unionhawk Ew
Your office is meab
 
2:26 PM
My productivity would be through the roof if I could access it
 
IT WAS A COMMA BRIDGE! A COMMA!
 
Not productivity towards office ends, mind you, but productivity nonetheless
 
@Unionhawk what the actual fuck
 
@Staravia Security(tm)
They also do some nonsense to catch and kill gmail attachments
 
I don't think I could work in a job where I couldn't access my personal google docs.
 
2:28 PM
Which means basic html gmail is unusable
Meanwhile I have to block hangouts scripts to get regular gmail to work
Plus they recently broke google play books which is fun (they're apparently blocking googleusercontent cookies now or something)
 
@Staravia its probably so you don't save internal files to it?
 
yeah
 
2:42 PM
@Unionhawk Is it a whitelist or a blacklist? Like, do they have measures against pushing code to a remote source repo?
 
@Nzall It's on a specific blacklist plus a filter on document storage sites
interestingly, github is whitelisted, and you can make edits on it
but there's other measures to block ports so you probably can't push remote with git or anything
 
I am about to tell you an epic tale about subterfuge, dating in the 21st century and the fall of human civilization. This actually happened to me and it could happen to you too. Get some popcorn. *Thread*
That thread is definitely worth reading

Q: In skyrim, where can I find a ship that is insanely loaded with wine?

MugenI was randomly exploring skyrim and once came across a ship. I'm not sure whether it was in the DLC (where we go back to morrowind) and then help some guy disable a lighthouse and then capture a ship OR, it might have been some other ship in skyrim. But here's what the ship looked like: You ent...

3:10 PM
@Nzall "fallopian fortitude" is perhaps the oddest use of consonance I've seen in awhile.
 
@Yuuki Yeah, I appreciated that
 
@Nzall bwahahahahaha
 
@Yuuki aliteration?
 
@fredley It's like squares and rectangles. All alliteration is consonance.
Actually, I don't think this is alliteration.
Alliteration is consonance on the stressed syllable. And for "fallopian", that's "fal-LOP-pian".
I think.
 
https://t.co/XjuODwtm1v
??
 
3:23 PM
@Yuuki No, alliteration definitely applies to the beginnings of words
 
@Wipqozn I literally didn't even think of that. I just want access to my own stuff.
Consonance is repeated consonant sounds; alliteration is repeated consonant sounds at the beginnings of words.
 
@Staravia Yeah the "I have to use my phone to do outside work on company time" part is merely a side effect
 
@Wipqozn hue
@Wipqozn i thought i only had to worry about your socks, this is much worse
@Nzall this is great
@Wipqozn this is why it's banned at my company

Q: what's stronger, executor (Star Wars) or Mantles Approach (Halo)?

SquareootDon't know if this is the right stackexchange to ask, but there are Star Wars video games so it should be alright.

 
@GodEmperorDune Don't worry, I always wear pants when I talk to you. @fredley is the only one I take pants off for.
Actually all joking aside I haven't worn pants in months
2
My office dress code is really lax so I've just been wearing shorts during the summer
 
Ave
@Wipqozn I'm jealous
I should get more shorts
I only have one I think

@Ave So you're short on shorts?

you could say that, yeah

@Yuuki we can easily switch this to discussions of if the reason @Wipqozn can longer wear pants is because the socks were so dirty that they literally burned his pants into shorts

Hmm... I don't like pepperoni in sandwiches.
 
(curse you GitHub pages)
 
@Yuuki you don't?
 
6:02 PM
@Yuuki I don't like pepperoni on pizzas but I do like it in sandwiches.
 
@quartata I am currently eating a sandwich with pepperoni in it and I am not a fan.
 
hrm
 
It doesn't balance well with the rest of the flavors.
 
Salami, though, is good on both pizza and sandwiches, so it is the superior meat.
 
@Staravia I personally think pepperoni has a slight edge over salami in sandwiches
But both are good
 
6:05 PM
@quartata It really depends on my mood.
 
and, of course, what pepperoni or salami you have on hand
 
Pepperoni and salami are both top tier sandwich meats.
 
Isn't pepperoni salami?
 
Technically yes but in normal American usage no.
 
Hell yeeeeeeee twitter cards api: figured out
 
6:07 PM
@Staravia Genoa salami is great
 
take that
 
something something brothers pepperoni
 
keep rubbing it in
that i dont have any brothers pepperoni
and never will
 
bröther may I have some pepperöni (?)
 
This hatch chile roll is a lot better than it has any right to be.
For sushi that doesn't have any actual fish in it.
(Yes, I know imitation crab is made from fish, but I refuse to count it as "real fish")
 
6:17 PM
It's fish pretending to be crab
 
Sushi is a mechanism for me to get ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce flavors together in one bite without it being overwhelming.
It pretty much doesn't matter what's in the sushi, as long as it's got a slight crunch.
 
Okay, my internet works again
 
Ave
hmph, I wonder how hard it'd be to port renpy to pynx (python 3.5 on switch)
It'd allow a lot of games to be played on the switch
 
6:41 PM
needs pygame
which needs SDL right
 
Man, I should update my github icon
hmm
 
the transformation continues:
At some point you’ll realize....... I never lied to you.
We need to break him of his casing habits
all lower case
 
@quartata huh?
 
ice-t asked people who dril was
we simply pointed out that the dril was in him all along
 
what if the real dril was the random tweets we made along the way?
 
6:46 PM
exactly!
 
Ave
@quartata sdl exists
 
@Ave so probably not that tough then
 
Ave
well I might need to port it to pynx
but with that out of the way and some keyboard mappings done, it shouldn't be that hard
 
pygame does its own SDL bindings

Q: What happens if you die in No Man Sky multiplayer (NEXT)?

RenderWith the new version released allowing multiplayer with random people, what happens if I die? Will I lose everything and can they take my stuff?

 
Ave
7:00 PM
@quartata hm. that might be a problem.
 
well I mean
I don't know the details here
don't you have a libpython to link against
 
Ave
7:18 PM
 
can you use gdb
or is there a core (probably not)
 
Ave
@quartata switch is aarch64 and has a completely custom kernel, so I don't think that it'd work
If what it does is a regular (fatal or otherwise) horizon crash (instead of a python crash), I can use creport to get some more info about it. I'll investigate.
oh hey. I need to compile python 3.5.3 to try this out. How nice.
 
@Ave That doesn't necessarily rule out the ability to use a standard debugger like gdb. The main question would probably be whether you can get gdb compiled for aarch64
 
No she's right, no ptrace
It would require non-trivial porting at least
 
Oh, yeah, that would do it

I kinda assumed it was BSD or something but that's the PS4 I'm thinking of

cc @badp @Dragonrage
 
oh, well then
looks like you are in for some fun
what class are you playing?
 
@Dragonrage Saboteur, arc trapper.
I did get the achievement for having 10+ modifiers on a map :D
 
nice. im playing as a ranger currently. just recently started playing POE
im like level 54 or something
 
@Dragonrage I'm lvl 82, which is by far the highest level I ever got.
1st of september a new league starts, I'm curious how it'll play.
 
im doing an elemental hit build for my ranger. elemental hit + mirage + greater projectile support + something else. im trying to get a bow with 6 rune slots
 
8:00 PM
@Dragonrage Getting anything with six connected slots is a pain. Except for Tabula rasa unique item.
 
my bow has 4 connected slots atm plus an extra 5th
burned all of my link fuses trying to get 5 connected slots
 
I've only ever found two tabula Rasa's, in a couple years of playing infrequently. (one of them this league) and maybe a couple other six link items.
 
I've been having fun making a bow/mage Scion
 
@Dragonrage Yea, more will be burned. I have an armor where I want at least five linked on.
 
It's probably not a long term viable build, but it's a lot of fun
 
8:01 PM
Next league will have a new bow skill.
 
cool. i still need to get the on damage support and get at least 4-5 connected link armor so i can set up projectile weakness curse as an on damage trigger
 
@Arperum Ooh!
 
@SaintWacko It looks pretty cool.
 
looks pretty cool
i will enjoy using that
 
Wow
Yeah it does
 
8:26 PM
Well, apparently Twitch Prime no longer provides universal ad-free streaming.
 
@Yuuki It seems like everyone is switching from "You can either view ads or pay us a monthly fee" to "How you we show you ads and you pay us a monthly fee!"
 
@SaintWacko You still get ad-free viewing for channels that you subscribe to. So now it's "how abouts you pay us a monthly fee and then another monthly fee to not view ads".
 
@Yuuki Wow
 
@Yuuki *can still
that's configurable
(but most have it on)
 
Oh yeah, the streamer has to specify that subscribers can view ad-free.
So subscribing to a channel that doesn't do that means you still watch ads.
"How about you pay us a monthly fee and then another monthly fee per channel to not view ads except if we really want you to view ads?"
I thought we got rid of cable?
 
8:35 PM
#disruption
 
@Yuuki We did! And the thing we replaced it with is changing to perfectly fill in the niche!
 
@Yuuki do people get twitch prime just for ad free streaming?
i thought it was more of a "hey you already bought amazon prime, here is a thing that comes with"
 
@GodEmperorDune shrugs
 
i got prime to watch some prime exclusive shows, now dropping it until new seasons come out
which reminds me, i need to figure out how to gift RIP @twobugs' stream with my monthly twitch prime subscriber token or whatever it is
 
8:52 PM
Just click the subscribe button and there's an option to use your prime subscribe thing, IIRC.
 
ah, cool
 
Is Twitch Turbo still a thing?
 
@Nzall according to the email i got, yes
 
I think that's the thing you want if you want universal no ads
twitch.tv/products/turbo (warning: don't click anything, you might buy it)
 
> So what exactly does Twitch Prime do now? Monthly free* gaming stuff and the one free* subscribe?
> * technically not free since you pay for Twitch Prime
 
8:58 PM
@Yuuki i think the ads thing doesn't kick in until next month
or longer depending on when your annual sub rolls over
i think you also get some different icons or emotes you can use too
