@MadScientist not much is happening
 
@badp No, and once it is happening the TiDi will go to 10% and it'll get really slow. I was never involved in all that 0.0 stuff, but those fights are probably a lot more interesting to read about than actually participate. But I'm a bit curious how much TEST/N3 will bring on field
 
The Canadians let me in.
They will regret this in time.
 
@MadScientist Doesn't it suck to play at 10% Time Dilation?
(also, how does the server catch up to the present after the fact?)
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz We'll be polite when we deport you, no worries.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz Don't you mean Canuckistanis?
 
8:06 PM
@badp Yeah, but I've only seen that once when I went to an event where the CCP devs went around in a fleet and everyone tried to kill them. I play at a much smaller scale, with at most ~30-40 people in a fleet. And the server does not catch up, some parts of the universe just run slower
 
@MadScientist what.
Doesn't that break casuality?
 
@badp It doesn't change the actual time on the server, but everything you do there takes just 10x as long as usual
 
@WorldEngineer They let me in. One good turn deserves another.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz fair enough
 
@spugsley House warming is back on!

Q: Can you somehow use other weapons while dangling from a rope in worms revolution?

Neel SampemaneWhen I am dangling from a rope some items get greyed out from my inventory, so I assumed the ones that didn't get greyed out could be used from the rope. However, when I selected the dynamite and pressed the fire key, I just disengaged the rope and fell to my death. Am I doing something wrong? Or...

Q: What does Quirt's Summer Stash in Dota 2 contain?

Reno YeoI recently got a Quirt's Summer Stash Treasure Box in Dota 2, but when I select 'Peek Inside', it doesn't show me what I'll get! So the question is, does anyone know what does 'Quirt's Summer Stash' contain?

Q: How do I work around the game-breaking "Tomb of the Lost Adventurer" DLC bug (can't climb plane)?

BlueRaja - Danny PflughoeftI've had to restart this area three times now due to a bug that prevents completion - on the PC, if you burn the trees in the order that you're supposed to, the plane breaks incorrectly and you cannot complete the DLC. I've found a few links (1, 2) that claim to have workarounds, but they're ver...

 
@Lazers Give this guy an upvote
 
user20683
Popcap stuff for one
 
user20683
Jamestown
 
@2____ Simon or Lucas on chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/151/the-dmz are your guys. They are more techno than me - I am more in the NIN and heavier camp
 
user20683
8:35 PM
@RoryAlsop I think he is NiN
 
user20683
in fact I think he needs to be introduced to MetalTech :)
 
@2____ , @WorldEngineer has a point...you may like a couple of our heavier songs. Check out metaltech.me and then our youtube channel (www.youtube.com/metaltechtheband) including youtube.com/watch?v=lm_n3l2bDSI&list=PL78414C0F788B38CF
 
yes I am listening to the slip a lot
 
and the ever popular Rammstein tribute number - Hammstein: youtube.com/watch?v=usgavULOhsc&list=PL78414C0F788B38CF
We have supported KMFDM and Angelspit a couple of times each, and they seem to like our heavier stuff (and our pole dancers)
 
hmm
 
user20683
8:42 PM
Rammstein's genre is a subset of Industrial Metal called "Tanzmetal"
 
@WorldEngineer of which they are the only member :-)
 
user20683
@RoryAlsop Tanzwut comes pretty close
 
Oh, yeah - found a pic of our dancers (the Kamikaze Girls) in sex-doll outfits at one of our KMFDM support slots: fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/…
@WorldEngineer good fun to run to:-)

Q: Once you gain a privilage can you lose it?

Young GuiloIf I have enough rep to accept edits and I lose 2 rep am I no longer allowed to accept suggested edits?

 
Uhhh, he's about to hit 2k rep. That's gonna be a lot of rollbacks soon, I feel.
 
user20683
@FEichinger Abuse will lead to mod messages.
 
user20683
more than likely
 
The damage still has to be done first. ;)
 
@SepiaLazers Suddenly, I'm very glad it works the way it does.
 
9:15 PM
@fbueckert That's a rare and dirty feeling.
 
user43095
Hope he makes a 2k bounty soon.
 
user20683
okay...ate too much...yerg
 
9:27 PM
@SepiaLazers I wonder how long it is before this guy finds chat.
 
@StrixVaria I think he was here once.
 
@fbueckert He's at 1996. I wonder what prompted this question...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz His main account was at 2000 a few minutes ago until I downvoted an atrociously bad question of his (before seeing what his rep was, actually).
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz have you listened to watching movies with the sound off?
 
@StrixVaria I know, I'm just laughing.
It was a rhetorical 'I wonder'
 
9:32 PM
The part I think is funny is that the question was asked before I downvoted him below 2000 again.
Which means it happened to him twice :P
 
Or (given the focus on accepting edits) it might be about me, what with me rejecting one of his edits.
 
Is 2000 rep the privilege to edit without review?
 
Yep.
 
Ugh.
 
Yep, Ugh.

Uhhh, he's about to hit 2k rep. That's gonna be a lot of rollbacks soon, I feel.
 
9:35 PM
wait so the bar will be raised?
 
No?
 
No?
 
No.
 
This hasn't been deleted yet. If you see it in your review queue, recommend deletion.
 
@FAE They are good fun - we have played with them twice
 
FAE
9:37 PM
@RoryAlsop I do not know who "we" is, hence my confusion!
I saw that at Summer Darkness here in the Netherlands in 2011, they were super nice!
I went to see them and VNV Nation.
 
@FAE ahhhh - Metaltech, my band (metaltech.me)
 
FAE
I got pictures and autographs with both of them, but unfortunately, someone stole my camera from my pocket during the VNV concert and it had my coat check ticket in it. The person also stole the items I'd checked as well, which included the signed things. :(
 
@RoryAlsop so have you heard of Type O Negative?
black black black black numbah oneoene
 
@FAE Looks like we are getting to play at next year's Alt-Fest, which will be awesome. Check out the headline acts: alt-fest.com
VNVNation, Fields of the Nephilim, Covenant, Front242, Eisbrecher, Atari Teenage Riot,March Violets, Suicide Commando, KMFDM, Angelspit, Alien Sex Fiend
etc etc etc
@2____ Yeah - like some of their stuff
 
FAE
@RoryAlsop Are they confirmed? I see the poll but I wasn't sure which ones were confirmed or not.

10:00 PM
Does anyone know who user56 was?
 
user20683
@jeffreylin_ Mark Trapp as I recall
 
user20683
What question?
 
user43095
@WorldEngineer All the questions
 
user20683
@jeffreylin_ link?

Seems to have answers many questions, some Minecraft.
 
user20683
oh
 
user20683
that's Arda Xi
 
user20683
not sure what the story is there
 
@WorldEngineer He ragequit and decided he still wanted to hang out in here.
 
user20683
Rage quitting is poor form
 
10:09 PM
@FAE those are the confirmed ones, as far as I know
 
user20683
@RoryAlsop Sounds like a ridiculous party.
 
@WorldEngineer No, it was @ArdaXi.
 
@StrixVaria! How are you enjoying Mark of the Ninja? :3
 
@Fluttershy It's really well-done, but I don't actually like playing it very much.
 
user20683
@StrixVaria right, I figured that out when he linked the profile
 
10:13 PM
@WorldEngineer ain't that the truth
 
@StrixVaria So, in terms of game play, you aren't enjoying it, but you can appreciate it from an objective standpoint?
 
@Fluttershy I'm not too keen on stealth games in general. I'm amazed I stuck with Dishonored long enough to finish it.
 
@StrixVaria Ah, gotcha.
 
But I can appreciate a good one.
Deus Ex: HR was one I tried after last steam sale and I don't like the level design or mechanics in that game at all.
Dishonored was much, much better.
I'm playing Mark of the Ninja with mouse+keyboard because the gamepad controls are screwed up.
The main thing I don't like honestly is that I have to do a little mouse swipe thing to kill somebody, which is unnecessary.
 
Ah, yeah. You have to do a joystick thing with a gamepad. What was wrong with your controls?
 
10:16 PM
Every input I gave was acted on twice.
So if I pressed A to go through a grate, it would start going through then immediately jump.
 
That's... odd. What kind of controller was it?
 
Wired 360 controller.
Even on the menu, pressing down to select the next option skipped a row and went down 2 options.
 
Weird. I'm assuming this problem was specific to MotN?
 
Yeah, I've used the controller plenty for other games without issue.
 
It's been a long time since I've played it. Reinstalled it today. I may give it a go tonight and see if the same thing happens to me.
 
10:19 PM
I haven't been able to find anything online about that happening to other people.

Q: Are there any GBA games that the GameCube's Game Boy Player cannot play well?

OnirosI am looking to buy this accessory for the Gamecube. However, I read on some internet forums that some GBA games like Castlevania Double Pack don't run properly. Is this a generalized error or something anecdotal? Because I was thinking on buying it in order to play the exact same game on my syst...

 
10:58 PM
Eating my obligatory weird canadian chips.
These are weird. Canada is weird.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz Poutine?
 
@WorldEngineer No, All Dressed potato chips
Poutine is just disco fries by another name and meh meh meh
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Add ALL the seasonings.
Or at least say you do.
 
@RedRiderX yeah, I doubt that All dressed is 'all the things' but I could easily believe it was all the things when they came up with it 30 years ago or w/e
WELL PLAYED, KOREAN TV. WELL PLAYED.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Real poutine uses cheese curds, not plain old cheese. Unless it's terrible poutine.

A: I want to be able to die, but I can't. How do I die?

cuteboy77Let some zombies kill you it might take a while

 
@Brant Yeah, but this does not radically change my opinion of Poutine, since my problem with it is that I'm just not crazy about cheese in any form.
 
Fair enough.
(I'm secretly disappointed in you, though.)
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz What. Why do you even like pizza then?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I take it this means they decided to let you into the country?

Q: Will wild horses jump wooden fences?

BatophobiaOn the wiki it says: It is possible to jump over wooden fences while riding a horse. However, will a wild horse also jump over a fence (1.5 blocks)? If so, what can I use instead to contain them?

 
11:19 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I come back hours later to find the situation just as I left it, at least in appearance
 
@StrixVaria it is a weird exception and it is something to do with tomato sauce that makes cheese tolerable to me, I dislike it in basically every other application.
@Brant They did!
 
The cheese makes the pizza for me.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh joy, means a colleague of mine is gonna bombard me with chatter about this tomorrow. sigh
 
@FEichinger from what I saw it wasn't actually very interesting. They'll put up some lipstick on the lip on the pig through conversions into USD or something
"just look at the number of monthly subscriptions to EvE Online you could've bought with all those ships!"
 
11:25 PM
It doesn't matter, that guy keeps going on about Eve no matter what. Goons actually doing something again is just another reason to do so.
 
Pro tip: marathoning your YouTube subscriptions after returning from vacation can lead to some interesting ads. I've seen one for an army 6x6 (essentially a classified ad in video form) and one for Russian mail order brides.
 
What's the going rate for a mail order bride?
 
@badp Better than saying "ships valued at $xx,000" as though it were actually possible to convert their value into $USD
 
@Sterno I didn't click the ad
 
@Brant that's exactly my point.
 
11:33 PM
@MBraedley You should next time. For science.
 
@Sterno yeah, and infect my HTPC with lord know what malware
 
although tbf if the conversion to and from monthly subscriptions is actually driven by the userbase rather than dropped from above... it might be kinda fair
 
@MBraedley Science always has a price.
 
@Sterno TWO REFINED
 
11:44 PM
@NickT It's copypasting a oneliner post that only very tangentially answers the question
It's like "Oh, I see you used those words in your question, and this post also uses those words, they probably answer your question!"
 
it directly answers the question, "there is a GCD", it's just pretty sparse of an answer
more bothersome is how many close votes there are on that question
 
@NickT sparse is a generous way to put it.
 
cf. first comment
 
@NickT It's deleted because it plagiarized the (awful) content at the other end of the link.
 
@NickT I can pwn the comments if you want. They're not really adding anything
 
11:46 PM
@NickT They probably just haven't expired. It's been through some edits.
 
yeah, but the first comment came after most of the edits
 
@NickT The comments have already been purged once.
 
Oh no, he is back up to 1999.
 
There were a lot more than that that you can't see any more.
 
ah
 
11:47 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yep ... :/
 
@StrixVaria Purged them again
Five hours passed between the first purge and the next comment, so it's probably not informed by the previous wave anyway.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well I do have to wonder why his question on meta was sitting at -2.
 
user20683
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm exactly the opposite, the only way I can get tomato anything down is on pizza and even then it's only as sauce. Forget slices
 
@WorldEngineer Pasta, man.
 
user20683
@badp Pesto and White sauces are lovely
 
@WorldEngineer White sauces?
 
user20683
11:51 PM
like alfredo
 
I'm familiar with pesto but it gets old fast.
 
user20683
honestly I'm not much of a "sauce" person anyway
 
@WorldEngineer I'll have to google that.
@WorldEngineer but... what's pasta without sauce?
 
user20683
edible
 
user20683
:)
 
11:52 PM
oh lol. Butter and permesan deserves that kind of name?
 
@badp Americanized Italian food strikes again.
 
That's "white pasta for sick people" here :P
 
user20683
I'm of British extraction, what do we know about cooking?
 
"Oh yeah I'm feeling sickly. I guess I'll put butter on it."
@WorldEngineer I CAN STILL TEACH YOU THE WAYS OF PASTA.
YOU SHALL LEARN. eventually
 
user20683
@badp and I can gleefully ignore you. It is the American way.
 
11:53 PM
I'm not actually that great of a cook myself
I'm a good eater though :P
 
@WorldEngineer In fairness, I'm also not fond of sliced tomatos at all. I have a diet vaguely resembling that of a 5 year old at times.
 
@WorldEngineer A lot of people are sinners. DOES THAT MAKE THEM COOL?
@LessPop_MoreFizz Sliced tomato is a good low-effort side for meat, at least here.
 
user20683
I like almost all vegetables but I don't tolerate acids well
 
That and tons of bread
Oceans of bread
Planets of bread
 
@badp This I can support.
 
user20683
11:55 PM
and fruits of the solanum family are generally not swallowable.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz if you ever come to Italy, be aware that you usually get infinite refills of bread. It's part of the non-tip service charge.
 
user20683
to be fair, my first memories of "pasta" are späztle
 
@badp That's the case in most US restaurants that serve you bread pre-meal as well.

Q: Any more compact self-activating piston designs?

SF.I need to push incoming blocks in a new direction using a piston activated as soon as there is a new block to be pushed. In the screenshot, if the block from below is pushed in front of the piston, it passes the signal, powers the piston, the piston pushes it away and retracts awaiting another bl...

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Glad to hear that.
