@2____ free download, or just listen to the whole thing here: soundcloud.com/prettylights/acolormapofthesun-preview
 
yes
love free music
 
All his music is free, it's insane
depending on how many genres you like I can give you tons of free music
 
all of it
 
Most of these are free music.gravitasrecordings.com
Gravitas is a pretty boss label
Some of it isn't great, but a lot of it is
 
I am kind of a hiphophead and have a lot of mixtapes if you want links
 
2:02 AM
For example, everything by soulular.bandcamp.com

Q: Looking for meat ingredient suggestions for a Yoghurt Cake recipe

John KI know the flavours of "meat" and "sweet" can sometimes go together well. There's a sausage and fennel (licorice sensation) pastry that I very much enjoy. That's the concept this question is based in. We're having an office bake-off based on Yoghurt Cake. I'd like to do something different and...

 
free
@2____ I don't listen to much hiphop.
God, there's just so much
 
usually I listen to old skool when it comes to hip hop
 
@fbueckert So far pretty, but really long load times and kind of laggy
 
How the hell does Gravitas even make any money
 
2:03 AM
@GnomeSlice also there is a problem with windows media player where it downloads each thing twice
how do I fix that do you know?
 
You can download through windows media player?
Lol, not a clue, sorry
Are you on a PC?
 
sorry for the lack of clarity, when I move stuff there it get doubled
it is really annoying
 
Oh, yeah. Do you have it set to automatically check your music library?
For stuff
 
oh that would explain it
 
Yeah.
Also if you just want it for listening, I prefer Winyl
...Hm, the site appears to be gone. Dammit, did they drop it?
 
2:06 AM
You know what's funny? I pay more for Kickstarter games than I do actually buying them from Steam.
It takes games to be <$5 for me to pick up almost anything from Steam, but I just dropped $50 on backing a Kickstarter.
 
also, even if you aren't a HHH, check out "Notorious Thugs" by Notorious B.I.G.. There is a LONG buildup, so be patient, because when biggie does go in on a verse it is the illest.
 
Remind me tomorrow
And I will
 
if everyone stars it...
 
@2____ You've heard the Run The Jewels record, right?
because if you haven't and you claim to be a hip hop head, FIX THAT RIGHT FUCKING NOW YOU LIAR.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz are you a HHH?
 
2:08 AM
 
@fbueckert Having now played for about 5 minutes of actual gameplay, I'll say that it could be good, but my first impression doesn't leave me wanting to keep playing instead of going to bed.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz The bus is late
 
@2____ Yeah, though I'm super picky.
 
@fbueckert That's the point of kickstarter.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I must know, Big or 2pac?
 
2:09 AM
@Sterno From what I understand, they sold you more of a campaign engine than an actual game.
 
@2____ I'm from NYC, I'm obligated to say Biggy.
Though really, my early 90's hip hop loyalty is more to Chuck D than anyone else.
 
@GnomeSlice Depends on how you look at it.
 
@2____ That said, You've heard the Run The Jewels record, right? RIGHT?
 
@fbueckert Not really, the point of KS is to fund stuff, not provide deals.
More free music, although I suspect neither of you will care for it yogurtbox.bandcamp.com/album/tracer
 
no
never heard of it
have you heard the new mac miller
it is pleasantly good
 
2:14 AM
@2____ Run the Jewels is EL-P and Killer Mikes collaboration.
 
@GnomeSlice Again, it depends on how you look at it.
 
@fbueckert er
If you say so.
 
@fbueckert Honestly, the main thing that made me stop playing (for now) is that the UI is just a tiny bit slow to respond. Makes the whole experience a little painful. Not sure if it's just my machine/settings or what.
 
2:14 AM
Bannana Clipper is the first single and it features Big Boi and it is a Hot Hot Hot track.
 
It uses the exact same cover icons as XCOM
 
Seriously, forget Yeezus, this is the hip hop record of 2013.
 
73% of Ouya owners have yet to by a game (!), and yet this is "better than we (at Ouya) expected" ...? http://www.polygon.com/2013/7/25/4557170/ouya-says-73-of-its-owners-have-yet-to-buy-a-game Buh?
 
The only thing that might beat it is if Mystikal manages to drop an entire album of songs as good as Hit Me because I am a sucker for that crazy James Brown shit.
But fact is, Mystikal is not going to drop an entire album as good as this song, so it will have to stand on it's own as a magnificent 3 minutes of funk.
 
@badp here's the twitch channel that does those Isaac races twitch.tv/crumps2
 
2:18 AM
@BenBrocka I'm kind of annoyed that because of the GameStick's last-minute delay, the OUYA is overshadowing it even more now.
I hope the GameStick can pick up the developers
 
@GnomeSlice Wasn't it already more or less completely eclipsed by the Ouya? Different sales pitches I know, but the Ouya seemed to always have like 10x the attention
and I don't think it's middling (at best) success bodes well for the lesser known ones
 
@BenBrocka Yes, but I was hoping that if it came out first (as originally planned) it would get a boost.
@BenBrocka GameStick has a deal with GameStop, so hopefully they'll be able to promote it.
 
Does Gamestick do the Play Store?
I'm wondering if Play Store access would drive more sales of something like this
 
@BenBrocka No, but it's a lot more refined than the ouya apparently. It's also not as 'open' as the OUYA is, it's more like a dedicated console.
EVerything about it looks better to me
 
Then again there's 5 or 6 at my last count, they might just all be spelling doom for each other
 
2:21 AM
The controller, the size
The UI
I really want the GameStick to take off with developers
Badly
I was interested in the OUYA at first but I quickly changed my sights to the GameStick.
 
@GnomeSlice Well, if the hardware is more solid that might be a boon for them. The Ouya's hardware/OS faults seem to be driving away lots of the praise it used to be getting
controller sounds nasty
 
the portability is a huge draw for me too.
 
I am just going to listen to Hit Me over and over again for the rest of the night, because DAY UMMMMMMMMMM
 
@BenBrocka It's slightly less powerful, but all of the pre reviews of the controller and UI I've seen have been extremely positive
@BenBrocka I urge you to do some light reading. gamestick.tv/discover
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz have you listened to born sinner?
 
2:24 AM
They broke their controller testing machine testing the controller
 
@2____ Yeah, not so much my thing.
I tend to like two categories of hip hop stuff:
 
@GnomeSlice Good to see some stress tests on it
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, PlayJam is really taking care with it.
Plus they have experience with TV media devices before
 
gaming.stackexchange.com/tags/game-identification/synonyms Suggestion: "identify-this-game"? Or is there some deep difference between the two I'm not seeing? (I do not have sufficient rep to apply tag synonyms)
 
Before I try and sleep — has any of you actually received an invite for the SE app?
 
2:27 AM
I'll wait until one of these android consoles seems like it might actually take off then I'll get that one and do some game reviews or something for youtube
 
@Margaret has several years of baggage behind it.
 
Weird stuff at the fringes that really advances The Art - be it Kanye or mid period beastie boys or El-P or that whole NYC outer boro underground crew with Exquire and Das Racist and Big Baby Gandhi and shit
 
@mar we use different words to distinguish bad guesswork-requiring questions from good identification questions
 
At this point, I believe our usage of the tag is to denote unacceptable questions of the variety.
 
Bad: ITG. Good: G-I.
 
2:28 AM
I see
 
It's too late now to rechristen ITG to Guess This Game
 
or, the absolute best of the best top of the game cream of the crop of more straightforward rap - Nas, Kanye again, Killer Mike, Jay Z, etc.
 
@BenBrocka I'm going to wait for the comparison reviews between the OUYA and GameStick. Something about the GameStick really appeals to me though; I can totally see bringing it along with me to hotels and shit when I travel, for example
Not that I do that very often
 
Stuff like J Cole that isn't really doing either just doesn't interest me.
 
adds blacklist to game-identification
 
2:30 AM
@GnomeSlice yeah, that's pretty neat. Does it require a USB power cable like the Chromecast?
 
Welp. I am officially in full-on panic mode.
 
@BenBrocka I think it depends on the TV. I've read it will be able to draw power though the HDMI port on certain TVs I think
Maybe that was a rumor
Because it sounds fishy
 
@Fluttershy Oh, dear.
 
@Fluttershy Whas wrong?
 
2:30 AM
What happened?
 
I got the motherboard installed, got the power supply, processor, heat sink/fan, all that fun stuff. I have no idea what to do with all of the cables coming out of the power supply.
 
@Fluttershy See the big ones? There should be two of them.
 
@GnomeSlice Some (few) TVs do support some sort of thing that gives more power over HDMI I think. Some people are mad at the Chromecast for not supporting it (but at that price point I can hardly blame them)
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz GOAT?
 
@fbueckert It had a big 24-pin, and a big cable with two 4-pin connectors.
 
2:32 AM
@BenBrocka Well then yeah, it will work plug-n-play on some, others will have some form of power.
It also has a dock you can buy extra that powers it and provides extra storage
 
@2____ Hm? Are you asking who I think is the____?
 
And it plugs into it so you don't have to fish around the back of the TV
 
@Fluttershy Usually the 24-pin is broken into two. There should be a matching slot for it on the motherboard.
 
Because I think you'd be hard pressed to argue anyone other than Jay Z or Nas, though I think Jay Z damages his claim to the title with each subsequent release at this point.
Neither is my favorite, but it's hard to argue that those two are not objectively the 'best'.
 
@Fluttershy the 8 or 4x2 pin connector socket sohuld be near the cpu (that's what it's for)
 
2:34 AM
lil wayne would be if not for his recent stuff
literally EVERY line is a vagina simile
2
 
@2____ Nah, I don't think he's even in the same category as those two.
 
eminem?
 
@2____ I keep seeing 'vagina smile'
 
Also, my hard drive didn't come with any cables to hook it up, and my optical drive didn't either. =\
 
@BenBrocka Are you a gamestick fanboy now
 
2:37 AM
@2____ Second tier. At best. He's great, but Nas and Jay Z are just on another level from everyone else on the planet.
It's not just about the talent, it's about the longevity.
I've been big into Killer Mike lately.
Love this video.
 
how about greatest song of all time
 
@2____ I couldn't even begin.
 
oh come on you have to answer now :D
TIL killer mike is not a fan of reagan

Q: Help me fix façade!

tryingnottobreakstuffI have windows 7, and I recently downloaded Façade. When it was finished downloading, I opened it up and there were (seemingly) no problems. The red curtain for loading came, then the black screen while you hear Trips voice mail. Then they show you a picture of Grace and Trip in their apartment. ...

 
@2____ Shadrach.
That answer will change within 20 minutes.
 
@GnomeSlice My opinion's basically unchanged (though I'm impressed with the wireless charger; love those, wish the N4's wireless charger weren't so expensive). I'll wait and see before I buy it or any other "micro" console
My main interest in the Ouya was all the interest it was getting; if I can get a few K views on each review I could pay for the console in ad earnings on Youtube. But....I don't think that's going to happen on the Ouya, and I think I'll have to wait quite some time before the other micro consoles have close to a large enough following
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz what are your thoughts on Macklemore
 
@2____ Meh. Getting tons of credit for shit Def Jux did 15 years ago.
@2____ What are your thoughts on Death Grips?
 
2:46 AM
@badp I was only like 5 minutes late!
 
I listened to half a song on accident the other day. It was good.
 
some of the hardest, most terrifying shit on the planet.
I have to imagine that Kanye was listening to this making Yeezus.
Also, this is what I mean when I say I like the shit out on the margins that pushes the genre's boundaries.
 
I was JUST listening to that song... HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED
 
@2____ Well then listen to this one next:
 
anyway, opinion on Odd Future & Macklemore?
 
2:53 AM
@2____ Like I said about Macklemore, he's doing shit Def Jux did nearly 15 years ago. He's competent, but nowhere near deserving of the attention he gets.
As for Odd Future... Tyler has clearly flamed out - he put out some great tracks, but Goblin was a disaster, and he's shown no signs of improving. Similarly, I've pretty much lost interest in 'Odd Future' as a collective/brand. That said, Earl Sweatshirt and Frank Ocean are both massive talents, and if the two of them break out, it'll have been worth putting up with Tylers nonsense.
Well, Ocean did break out, so really, if Earl Sweatshir breaks out.
 
Morning people
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I am assuming you have the EARL mixtape?
 
@2____ Yeah.
@2____ What's your opinion of Das Racist?
And, I suppose of Heems and VV's various solo shit
 
I don't listen to him, mostly because that is a pretty inflammatory name, right up there next to Butthole Surfers
 
@2____ You do realize that it's 'das racist' as in 'That's Racist', not as in "The Racist"
This shit is pretty hard to argue with.
I don't think anyone working today uses internal rhyme and alliteration as well as these two guys
The way that Heems in particular just free associates across a bunch of half-rhyming nouns to change the subject is amazing.
 
3:00 AM
really good stuff
have you heard "Wolf"?
 
@2____ You mean the Tyler track?
 
the album, yes
 
@2____ It's not as bad as Goblin...
Relax is... not that great for the most part by comparison.
This is probably the single best Das Racist song.
The soap opera sample is hot.
 
Sysadmin Day! Yay!
 
This is probably the funniest though.
I can't stop listening to this Mystikal track.
it is just fucking FIRE.
 
3:19 AM
someone downvoted me with the comment "couldn't you just google that?"
I googled it and the minecraftwiki was no help. Furthermore, most of the questions he answers the answers to can also be found by google search. His comment is causing the downvotes to stream in. What do I do?
 
@Sterno just FYI arrows AND freehand circles equals extra upvotes. I should know
 
calling all @AshleyNunn
 
@2____ You can refute it, but there's not really much you can do about downvotes.
 
can I flag?
/should
 
@2____ No.
 
3:21 AM
@OrigamiRobot YEAH! Were she at?!?!
 
user15026
@2____ Not a good idea
 
k
 
You have 8 upvotes, and 4 down. That's still a net 32 rep. Leave it alone.
 
user15026
@spugsley @OrigamiRobot I AM RIGHT HERE
 
but he's being a jerk
 
3:21 AM
YAY
 
@2____ Welcome to the Internet.
 
@AshleyNunn did you see the sexy dance video I sent you on steam?!?!
 
user15026
Just got home from an evening of being awesome, eating food that is bad for me and driving around with one of my awesome guy friends in his absolutely jacked as fuck car
 
@AshleyNunn bahahaha nice
 
user15026
@spugsley Watching it now. I liked the message you sent with it

Q: Target Natural Wonders

DomI am playing on a huge map and located a Natural Wonder very early in the game. I now want to settle near it; however, I cannot for the life of me remember where it is exactly. I uncovered a large portion of the map, so I prefer not having to tediously go through each tile to find out where it ...

 
so what kind of music do you guys listen to? Gnomeslice and I have a music exchange going on.
 
@AshleyNunn I think that's the same not-our-type guy from last time I showed you a dance. I think he might be becoming our type
 
CAN NOT STOP LISTENING TO HIT ME.
 
user15026
@2____ country/metal
 
3:24 AM
@AshleyNunn just go hand in hand ;
 
@2____ Works for Kid Rock.
 
user15026
@2____ I like what I like.
 
user15026
@spugsley oh my dear god. dies
 
@AshleyNunn that was my exact reaction with a few more fuck words
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz have you seen the Kids bop cover of thrift shop? Me and all my rich white friends all thought hip hop was dead but then they came along and REVIVED THE GAME!!1!
 
user15026
3:26 AM
@spugsley I was trying to be Bridge polite
 
best track of the year
 
It's 10:30, and I'm yawning my head off.
 
@AshleyNunn :3 fair enough
 
I'm thinking I'll read a bit more Honor Harrington, and hit the sack.
 
user15026
@spugsley but holy fucking shit thank you for sharing
 
3:27 AM
:D
 
@2____ Kids Bop was over when they covered Float On as far as I'm concerned.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Wait what
 
their early material was better, I will admit it
 
are we really talking about Kids Bop right now?
 
Kids Bop. Best band of all time
 
user15026
3:28 AM
@spugsley I just went to see if you posted today and flickr is down :( :
 
ironically?
 
2hipster4u
 
@AshleyNunn yeah I couldn't post today :(
 
user15026
@spugsley sad
 
3:28 AM
@AshleyNunn BUT! I should have some awesome shots tomorrow because @OrigamiRobot and I are exploring an abandoned nursing home that is supposedly super haunted
 
user15026
@spugsley fucking awesome ;D
 
I am the person responsible for the first appearance of this track on the internet iirc.
 
all these fake hiphopheads arguing over Yeezus and born sinner while missing out on the biggest release of the year
sigh
 
@AshleyNunn yup! This place: youtube.com/watch?v=iK19IAOmihI
 
user15026
@2____ eh, people are all allowed to like different stuff
 
3:31 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz clearly she hasn't listened to kb24. That album changed my life, man
at least they didn't let nas down like j. cole
 
user15026
@2____ she who? me?
 
@2____ You're right, anyone arguing over Kanye and J Cole instead of talking about Run The Jewels is a damn fool.
 
everyone who hasn't been enlightened by kids bop
 
Also, speaking of Nas, I have a soft spot for Jazzmatic.
(Rewind in particular, works phenomenally.)
 
interesting
I will never get tired of the same 3 macklemore songs playing on the radio. they just never get old
he has one album and already he is clearly the GOAT
 
user15026
3:35 AM
@2____ god forbid anyone like it. sigh
 
user15026
Like I get not liking stuff but do you really gotta shit on people?
 
just his overly obsessed fans
 
user15026
@2____ so you are allowed to super like stuff, but they aren't?
 
not the ones who 'super like' him but the ones who thinks he is the GOAT and revived hip hop
 
user15026
@2____ why does it matter?
 
user15026
3:38 AM
is it hurting you?
 
no, but it is fun to make fun of
it is part of a reddit hip hop circlejerk
so it probably makes no sense here
 
user15026
@2____ you sound like a shining example of caring and kindness.
 
user15026
@Ktash What is that from?
 
@AshleyNunn Starcraft
 
user15026
@Ktash Ah. It reminds me of a game I played eons ago with purple alien dudes and these little green dudes that looked like bushes and now I sound like a bad ITG
 
Also, got a picture with Brian D. and Jenny Matrix
 
user15026
@Ktash fucking hell, are you serious? that is the coolest.
 
Yes. And got a poster signed by Ted and Ki
They were all super nice
oh, and Hannah Hart was there...
 
user15026
@Ktash That sounds awesome
 
user15026
3:45 AM
@Ktash Not so much a fan tbh
 
I'm now convinced everyone who does YouTube videos knows each other
 
user15026
@Ktash its a pretty small community
 
user15026
Which is weird to me
 
Well, apparently a lot of them use the same talent agency too, so they all do cross promotions and such
also weird to think YouTuber's have talent management
makes me realize how much YouTube is just an online version of Hollywood
 
user15026
@Ktash pretty much yeah, which is why you see SO much overlap
 
3:50 AM
Episode 1 of VGHS should be live in a little while
they were still finishing stuff up yesterday, but we still got to see the first episode
I think it'll be a good season
 
user15026
@Ktash so jealous, dies
 
Heh, it'll be up today
well, today pacific time
anyway, done with all that chat
what have you all been up to?
 
user15026
@Ktash driving around being an awesomesauce me with one of my best guy friends
 
user15026
also eating poutine
 
user15026
3:53 AM
and watching Guu
 
user15026
that is some messed up shit
 
user15026
now I am watching Avatar :D
 
@AshleyNunn Now I have the worlds worst canadian joke stuck in my head and I blame you.
Also I blame Nathan Fielder for telling it in the first place.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz awww, now I wanna know what it is
 
But mostly right now i want to blame you.
@AshleyNunn What did the cheese curd say to the french fry
 
3:53 AM
what is poutine, anyway
 
Poutine me in your mouth.
 
o_O
 
@2____ It is french fries covered in cheese curds and gravy.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz oh my god I love it
 
@AshleyNunn Nice!
 
3:54 AM
@AshleyNunn Nathan Fielder is a funny guy.
 
@AshleyNunn Also nice!
 
user15026
@Ktash I love it so much
 
@AshleyNunn That is the correct response
 
user15026
@Ktash happy dance
 
hrmrmrmmrmrmrmmmmmrmrmrmmr
 
3:58 AM
I has a cherry lambic lager and it is delicious.
 
so have you guys ever heard of dragonforce?
 
user15026
@2____ Yes :D
 
user15026
I was listening to them and Halestorm tonight
 
OMG FLICKR WHYYYYYYYYYY
I am SO mad I'm not going to be able to post today
 
@spugsley because Yahoo
 
user15026
4:00 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I have a cherry one in my fridge. :) It will likely be consumed tomorrow.
 
this song is just epic
 
@spugsley that's a noise
 
@Ktash yeah I'm debating about this place tomorrow. It's an hour drive to this abandoned nursing home. I want to go but it looks really trashed in the most recent video I can find and even that was over a year ago. Blerg
don't know if it's still worth going there to shoot
 
user15026
4:02 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz oh likely :P
 
user15026
@spugsley hm, I dunno but you might find awesome
 
@spugsley Only time and travel will tell
 
>abandoned nursing home
o_O
 
@Ktash yeah. Even though it's junky there's still some neat architecture type stuff I can probably work with
@2____ yuuuup :3 It's what I do
 
love me some urban exploration and parkour
 
4:04 AM
IF FLICKR WAS UP I COULD SHOW YOU MY UE STUFF
but it isn't. And I am mad :3
 
user15026
@spugsley what a jerk. :(

Q: How to pump mercury into Industrial Grinder?

DarylI've tried everything I can think of to put mercury in the Industrial Grinder. I'm using FTB Ultimate. I have a setup that pumps water in just fine. I have been unable to pump in liquid Mercury, or export mercury cells using AE, or even use a router to insert it into cell 2. Any suggetions?

Q: How long until you can see your town history?

adiosToreadorHow long does your town tree have to grow until you can sit on it and see your town's history?

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz :o no. Nao please
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz link pls
 
~56 more min til Flickr returns
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I am fascinated.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz so what is this
oh the new orleans six flags
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz magnificent :o I'd love to shoot a place like that. We had Heritage USA here but it's long been demolished (mostly). Still a couple things worth photographing but nothing amazing
 
4:09 AM
Yeah, John is an incredible photographer.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Those are amazing.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz yeah that's fucking brilliant
TO BED NOW
GOODNIGHT
 
user15026
@spugsley GOOD NIGHT
 
@spugsley g'night
 
I played on a vita today. The dpads were much too small. :(
 
4:43 AM
@spugsley Just as I get back, you leave. I see how it is
 
user15026
@Ktash I'm still here?
 
user15026
I mean I am not as cool as @spugsley but I try ;)
 
@AshleyNunn Just as beautiful and just as cool
It's like Ice Cream and Cake. Both on their own are amazing, and together they are perfect
... why both of those were capitalized, I'll never know
And really that's a bad analogy, because I don't eat ice cream and cake together, but I do enjoy you two together... just roll with it
VGHS S02E01 is about 2 hours out according to freddie
