Behold, the death of the Steam Store ... again.

fbueckert

Woo! Train Simulator 2013 80% off!

Total cost of all DLC: $1248.05 USD

And that's at 50%+ off per.

FEichinger

Well, you're not supposed to get all the DLC anyway.

badp

@fbueckert oh wait, I thought you were being serious :P

fbueckert

Prison Architect is tomorrow's deal, apparently.

FEichinger

@fbueckert It's the last one left, isn't it?

fbueckert

17:04

@FEichinger Isn't it 11 days?

FEichinger

@fbueckert 10 cards, though.

badp

The last day will be the "encore" thing

FEichinger

@badp Likely, yeh.

badp

THE STEAM SALES ARE ALREADY FINISHING

THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE

UNACCEPTABLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

FEichinger

@badp No, I'm content with that. Means I held my budget perfectly. :P

badp

17:05

@FEichinger there's still time :P

we all know after all that day 11 is for HL3.

Q: Bed without a bed

As far as I know, sleeping in a bed is equivalent to a /time set command, sometimes a /weather clear, plus the spawn point change (as long as the bed is not destroyed). Given this, would a Command Block with /time set 0; /weather clear be an equivalent substitute? Say for an Adventure map where ...

minecraft

FEichinger

@badp Well, I was honestly considering to grab some cheap DLC during the sale. :/ Most stuff I want was still way too expensive.

Private Pansy

Hrump, I keep getting stuck behind doors in FO:NV

SaintWacko

Anyone else getting a server error on the Steam Store

Private Pansy

I'm getting a blank page

badp

17:07

@SaintWacko 500

FEichinger

@SaintWacko You know that thing that happens when everyone, their mother and their dog hits F5 like mad?

FAE

@PrivatePansy Same

badp

In the meantime this page has a list of games

SaintWacko

@badp chrome has started doing this thing where it hides the actual error

Just gives you a simplified error

Private Pansy

I think Steam is experiencing a minor DDoS right now

A friendly one

FEichinger

17:08

@PrivatePansy Like every single day during the sale.

Private Pansy

Well, its been nearly 10 minutes. The servers usually recover quicker than that

badp

@SaintWacko hit 'more'

SaintWacko

@badp Yeah, I know

badp

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Legendary Edition 40% $35.99 €23.99 £17.99 $29.99

big pile of meh

I want the base game on discount, dammit.

FEichinger

@badp Dragonborn is too recent. :/

badp

17:10

Could give a fuck about DLC, but won't.

FEichinger

@badp Base game is -30% ... Which is just 3€ less.

badp

FEichinger

What's sad is that Dragonborn on its own is more than half the Legendary Edition.

badp

somebody managed to get this

FEichinger

@badp Yeh, that happened to me as well.

badp

17:13

big honking pile of meh

RedRiderX

@badp Awesomenauts is alright.

badp

@RedRiderX It was in one of the recent bundles

RedRiderX

@badp Yeah, that's where I got it.

badp

Maybe - maybe - Baldur's Gate.

fbueckert

Finally! Got in.

FEichinger

17:17

Well, to be frank, Skyrim went on sale way more than Oblivion did during its run.

badp

Everything is relative

FEichinger

@badp Do you remember how friggin long it took for Oblivion to get its base price reduced at all?

badp

@FEichinger steam prices can't get data for it apparently.

also, I don't honestly care.

No matter how slow the price drop is, it'll happen

Perhaps when it'll happen I'll have a worthy computer too!

Michel

*still alive

Private Pansy

Found a copy of Turing's Cathedral sandwiched between iPad for Dummies and The Complete Guide to Personal Computers 2002 edition in my local library's 004 Computer Science section

I have no idea what those other books were doing in the compsci section, but this was one of around two to three books in there that was actually about computer science

> In the March of 1953 there was 53 kilobytes of high-speed random-access memory on the planet Earth.

badp

17:29

heh

in the meantime amazon.it sells the physical copy for €4 less than Steam sells the digital edition

Private Pansy

Also, the term bit was coined by John W. Tukey in 1945 as an abbreviation of 'binary digit'

@Michel \o

FEichinger

@PrivatePansy STAHP ... I've got another CompSci Exam tomorrow. x.x

@FEichinger WHAT IS THE AIRBORNE SPEED OF AN UNLADEN SWALLOW AS HE SORTS A TEN THOUSAND BYTES ARRAY OF LONG LONG INT?

FEichinger

@badp You remember that message of mine you guys deleted recently? I kinda want to say it again. Over and over again.

badp

17:32

actually I don't

FEichinger

The one with the slaughtering and the organ-out-ripping.

badp

We all miss good ole murder.

SaintWacko

@badp IllegalArgumentException

badp

@SaintWacko on what token

SaintWacko

@badp Swallow

Private Pansy

17:35

@FEichinger Fine. Have some geeky wedding topper instead

badp

@SaintWacko It's just a typo! deducts points on @SaintWacko's test

FEichinger

@PrivatePansy D'awww~

37

Powerlord

@badp 0, because he crashed into something due to not paying attention to where he was flying.

SaintWacko

Also, he dropped some bits

badp

@Powerlord that would be the ground velocity! deducts points from @Powerlord's test

Powerlord

17:38

@badp Yes, except he's not in the air any more, so it's still 0.

badp

@Powerlord as he falls his speed is different than 0! flunks @Powerlord

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?!?!!?!?

Private Pansy

@Fluttershy plushies! equestriadaily.com/2013/07/…

Powerlord

@badp None that won't get me banned. :D

Michel

@FAE =D

FEichinger

@badp I'd go with a Perl syntax error, unexpected "long".

Michel

17:40

I'm very much away from ARQADE chat. but... Where is @Kalina?

FEichinger

@Michel Ragequit.

Michel

o.O last time she wasn't here too

@FEichinger WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT

Powerlord

@FEichinger Except that the syntax itself can tell you it's C or C++.

fbueckert

@Michel Yup

She'd finally had enough.

Powerlord

(long long int being a valid type in those)

FEichinger

17:41

@Powerlord Psh. Who cares about C or C++? Perl says no.

Michel

o.O

@fbueckert who was "the last drop" or what was the subject?

fbueckert

@Michel I think a mod kicked her from the Bridge as a joke.

Private Pansy

@FEichinger Your compsci course uses Perl?

FEichinger

@Michel kalina kicked -> kalina rages at badp about it -> kalina suspended for flag on one of the rage messages -> kalina ragequit

fbueckert

And that was the end of it.

FEichinger

17:42

@PrivatePansy No, Java, actually. But I'm trying to keep my head clear right now. Perl is the best way to do that. MINDLESS NONSENSE!

Michel

@FEichinger Looks like a simple logic... but I'm gonna miss her =( She was funny to messy with about Doctor Who and other stuffs =)

Powerlord

@FEichinger If you're using mindless nonsense to clear your head, then yes... Perl is perfect.

FEichinger

@Powerlord Of course it is. That's part of why I love Perl. Mindless, nonsensical MAGIC.

@Michel Truth. Most of us miss her a bit, I guess.

@Michel She's still on Steam.

Michel

@jeffreylin_ I don't have time to go out, or even chat here... steam is out of question for me =X... I need to get some social life back

@jeffreylin_ but it's good to know that she's still alive =D

FEichinger

Social life is overrrated.

user15026

@fbueckert Yeah FTB is a big mod pack, and there is a rather complex computer mod in it.

SaintWacko

@Retrosaur So clearly we don't all agree with you

user15026

FEichinger

@AshleyNunn I know. And I masterfully undermined that plan.

@FEichinger Yes it is... but... work + work + work + study + work... need to warm my body sometimes. and play games... Tonight, I'm going to play lol and maybe some steam games xD

Private Pansy

@FEichinger How about a question about transferring Minecraft mod files that is used to transfer files in Minecraft?

FEichinger

17:52

@AshleyNunn ♥

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn Of course, you know the major reason I'm pushing you to play 999 is so you can play it's much improved sequel.

user15026

@Powerlord yeah but it has SO MUCH READING

FEichinger

@Michel :P

Fluttershy

@Retrosaur You'd have better luck if you'd explain why it's too broad, etc., as opposed to just telling us to close it.

FAE

@Powerlord I need to finish this game.

user15026

17:52

I like the idea of it but the READING

user15026

@Fluttershy There is that....

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn Well, you can skip dialog you've already seen before.

FEichinger

@PrivatePansy That's why the term 'Mineception' was coined, I believe.

Fluttershy

@AshleyNunn Too much reading! If I play a puzzle game, just let me solve the damn puzzles!

Powerlord

Which becomes important since the game's real ending is the hardest to get.

Retrosaur

17:53

@Fluttershy It's wayyyy too opinion based. Some users may find the OR to be like normal gameplay, but some may feel light-headed when using it

user15026

@Fluttershy THiS THIS ThIS

user15026

@Retrosaur I dont think that is what the question has anything to do with

Powerlord

@Fluttershy It's technically classified as a Visual Novel, and the iOS version has all the puzzles stripped out.

Retrosaur

So asking others " how does the OR affect gameplay" could be a "it does" or "it doesn't"

fbueckert

Free flags

user15026

17:53

@Powerlord Oh ick

Retrosaur

@Powerlord Read it again.

Which makes me wonder how they handle the dialog that happens in the puzzle rooms.
