@Blem No idea, bought the bundle, didn't even install the games

I thought about buying the bundle, but then I decided not to because i dont know anything about the games
 
@Blem I never played them. What I heard that they are massive economy simulations
In space
EXTREMELY complex

don't have time for that, to many other games to play
 
EVE is so boooooooring

@kalina Play Hotline Miami
 
and that's not including my list of unplayed Origin games
which includes the new C&C game, that I'm in the beta for, and haven't even installed yet
 
@kalina Universe sandbox isn't too much, fun for a little bit and then you get bored. you can only throw so many moon sized teapots at the earth.
 
@kalina I could play Borderlands 2 or Saints Row: The Third with you if you decide to play them
 
11:13 AM
its not even just borderlands 2
I preordered the game and the season pass
and haven't even installed it yet
 
@kalina WUT?
WHY?
 
I got all the DLC but i am only level 19 or so
 
same with Bioshock Infinite
preordered it with the intention of playing it while I was on holiday
and played simcity instead
 
@kalina i skiped Bioshock Infinite because i had Bioshock 1 and 2 that i havent fisnished
 
I haven't even played Bioshock 1 or 2
 
11:15 AM
Oh boy - 1 is so good
 
@kalina Booooring games
 
I played a bit of Bioshock 1, was pretty good but then IRL happened
 
ok I just got a "1 is so good" and "borrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiingggggggggggggggg" in the space of a few seconds
DON'T CONFUSE ME LIKE THAT

@kalina Meh...play it yourself and decide...
 
Do you know what else is booooring?
 
11:16 AM
@kalina That's the next game.
 
@Blem Four Stores, any difficulty
@Blem @OrigamiRobot's face
 
@Blem Dragon Age 2
 
@kalina I was going to say @OrigamiRobot's face
 
@spyder That is common knowledge..
 
11:18 AM
that reminds me i bought Fallout:NV that i need to play at some point
and Dark Sector
 
the most fun an individual can have
is trying to eat a cream cake with no hands

Q: Is it possible to get the Return to Castle Wolfenstein prequel maps on the PC?

RobotnikIn the PS2 and Xbox versions of the game, (Subtitled Operation Resurrection and Tides of War respectively), There are a few Prequel missions based in a small town and ancient catacombs in Egypt. Feeling nostalgic, I just installed the Steam version, and was a little disappointed that these prequ...

 
My face is pretty boring.
 
 
That's not my face...
 
11:28 AM
@OrigamiRobot definitely not, it is an Interesting face
 
Definitely not my face then.
 
I'm bored
I'm holding you all responsible
 
@kalina I'm holding you responsible for not entertaining me.
 
@Arperum exactly
 
@Arperum *dances*
 
11:31 AM
I'm going to stop being bored and going to play something.
 
Share the blame.
 
@kalina Getting better.
 
@3ventic I hate you for not being tied down to a day job
 
@3ventic I should stop being bored and work more on the brainreader software PoC I have to deliver.
 
@kalina I'm tied down to a day school
 
11:32 AM
@3ventic not the same thing
 
but I only have 18 hours a week
 
everybody knows people only turn up to school once in a blue moon
 
and an hour is 45 minutes because logic.
 
@3ventic I want my workweek to be like that kind of Finnish schoolweek.
 
before I dropped out of college I spent more time in the break room than in class
 
11:33 AM
@kalina Go watch the new Episode of Pokemon Rusty, and if you haven't seen it before you got 5 episodes to catch up!
 
I did all my AS levels and then figured it was a waste of my life
 
and now AS levels are a not even a real qualification
because they've been abandoned
 
I only had 90 minutes school today
 
so w/e
 
11:34 AM
logic in math(s)
 
IN OTHER NEWS
I am off work next week
so I will be living truly American hours
waking up in the afternoon
going to sleep as the sun comes up
 
Since everything's bigger in America, do hours last for 70 minutes?
 
@kalina Drinking and smoking....
 
@kalina go to Finland: set @3ventic on fire for stupid school hours.
 
@5pike I don't drink alcohol
 
11:35 AM
@kalina Ok, then just smoking.
 
I don't smoke tobacco
 
@Arperum I choose my hours :3
 
@kalina but you do consume weed.
 
@3ventic You're thinking of Texas.
 
@3ventic Even more of a reason.
 
11:36 AM
Everything's bigger in Texas.
 
@5pike I don't discuss such things, people cry about me making my own choices in life and then talking about them
While they talk about their alcohol consumption and other random habits they have
 
@OrigamiRobot Ah, okay.
 
because... double standards
@OrigamiRobot not everything...
 
@kalina Yeah yeah yeah... But I am not here to judge..
 
@5pike well fine, YES I SHALL CONSUME LARGE QUANTITIES
 
11:37 AM
My solution to double standards is to complain about everything equally. read: as much as I can
 
in between waiting for people to ready up for the next mission
 
People always find something in your life to complain about.
 
@kalina And while waiting for said people to get the fuck on the roof?
 
PACK THAT BOWL, BREATHE THAT SMOKE
KILL THOSE HOSTAGES
YOU... PULL THOSE LEVERS, PUSH THOSE BUTTONS!
 
 
11:39 AM
TWIST SOME KNOBS
PULL SOME LEVERS
"But sir, we're still on our own planet!"
Our mission begins now! Let us rain some doom down upon the filthy heads of our doomed enemies...
 
@kalina Image not found
 
@spyder you suck
 
@spyder "I'm gonna sing the doom song now, doom doom do dooo dooooom do do doo dooooom"
AWWW SOMEBODY NEEDS A HUG
 
11:42 AM
Thats the image @spyder :)
 
@kalina Liar.
 
I MISS YOU CUPCAKE

WordPress XML export file size: 14.4MB
Size of SQL export file after importing WordPress blog: 5.6MB
 
With any luck, this discussion should invoke less hate than a my little pony discussion
@PrivatePansy highly efficient
 
11:45 AM
@kalina has snapped. Someone get the hose.
 
@OrigamiRobot RIDE THE PIG!
 
To be fair I gzipped the SQL file, but still
 
@PrivatePansy well that's hardly a fair comparison then
 
Let me ungzip it and see...
 
or gzip the xml file
either works
your method is probably a fairer comparison though
 
11:47 AM
14.2MB, okay, fair enough
But this DB does have a few more things in it than the original imported export file

@OrigamiRobot pervert
 
@OrigamiRobot Show me yours and I'll show you mine
 
perversions? In the bridge? Kalina not involved? heartattack
 
11:50 AM
 
@OrigamiRobot posting naked pictures of yourself on the bridge is a bannable offence
 
@kalina Not when you're a cute little robot.
 
@OrigamiRobot BMO isn't cute
also: Adventure time is stupid

@PrivatePansy "kalina scowls at Yi Jiang"
star flood warning activated
I am investigating an issue with one of our applications getting past the login screen and then displaying a throbber on screen and hanging there
one could say, I am investigating a throbber
 
Good morning bridge people! and Lazer and Ponies and ...
 
12:07 PM
 
@PrivatePansy you might actually be able to help me here
my understanding of javascript is not fantastic
 
Go on
 
however I believe our product team are full of shit and getting it wrong
 
rofl
 
one of our customers uses one of our products via something called 'WebVPN'
which obfuscates URLs and allows an application being served inside a network to be available over the internet through a portal
 
12:11 PM
Seen that before. The National University of Singapore uses it
A Cisco product, hmmm
 
so the URL "http://localhost/application" becomes something like "https:/host/+CSCO+0075676763663A2F2F726562666772657661746A726F++/application"
the issue the customer is having
is all of our jQuery stuff just dies
they can log in and then nothing else happens
that's because of the "+"'s in the URLs right?
I'm sure + is a special character in js
 
Is it because the jQuery is being loaded from an external CDN and the URLs are being rewritten?
 
the images work fine? are you referring to your local files or external (CDN)?
 
@kalina Well, sure, but it being in the URL has nothing to do with jQuery or the JavaScript
 
no jQuery is being loaded from the same web server serving the application
 
12:13 PM
Unless they're taking the URL and evaling it, which is highly unusual
 
and all of the asynchronous requests will be fetching stuff from urls with a whole load of +'s in it
the application runs fine locally on the server, just doesn't run at all via this webvpn thing
 
@kalina it's very likely that the path is being lost.
 
Unless eval is being used, the URL shouldn't have anything to do with it, since the URL is just a string, and you can have whatever you want in strings and JavaScript won't care
@Michel That sounds more likely, yes
Let me think... you're thinking the + aren't being URL encoded correctly
You can load up the site, open your browser's console and look at the network tab to see if the scripts are being loaded correctly
 
let me start my entire process again using chrome rather than IE7
that was a mistake
 
@kalina Yes

Q: Changing Language in Bastion (PC)

Dominic De CocoI have purchased Bastion among other games with the Humble Indie Bundle 9 and I'd like to play the game in English, but for some reason the game is in German. Is there any way to change the language to English? I haven't found any language settings in the menu and I have set my Humble account to...

 
right so I click on something that uses jquery, I get the throbber, nothing else happens
if I click on something that doesn't use jquery, everything works fine
 
Check the console and the network tab
Ctrl + Shift + I
 
Aargh, Chrome! Why have you done this!
 
@PrivatePansy reload the page?
 
Best if you do
 
12:19 PM
this webvpn thing is one of the most horrible things I've ever been exposed to
 
@kalina Clearly, you need to drop that and try jQuery.
 
It's pretty commonly used, though why won't they just set up a real VPN I don't know
 
@Yuki like I said, if I use the software locally, it works fine
 
@kalina It's an old SO joke
Perhaps the average user is too dumb to set up VPN properly
 
so what am I looking for on the network tab, any indication of it going off and hitting other pages to get the data?
because there are none
 
12:21 PM
It should show you everything that's being loaded by the page
Look at the console tab first. If there's a JS error, that could be your cause. Otherwise, look at the network tab to see if the files are being loaded correctly
 
no error on the console tab
hm
what is http status code 304?
 
Redirection I think
 
oh no, it's cached and hasn't been reloaded
 
300something is redirection
 
Not modified
@kalina Ctrl + F5
There's also an option in the network tab to stop the browser from using cache, but remember to turn that off after you're done
 
12:25 PM
is there any way I can see the url that jquery is being used to fetch after the throbber is up?
 
Just hit the clear button after the throbber shows up?
Also, use small request rows if you need to see a lot of requests
 
well since everythings in order, I imagine its all the stuff after the throbber loads up
but they're all images
 
See any red?
 
no red
well there is a vertical red line on the timeline that is red, but I'm guessing thats not what you mean
 
Then all the requests are completing correctly, at least
@kalina No, that's not it
 
12:29 PM
meh, I'll just blame our developers, seems like the right thing to do
 
Well, you can try debugging the JS, but that's a bit of a pain and without anything to go on could take a very long time
 
I'm just going to escalate it :p
ta for assistance
 
@kalina We'll pass the blame off to HR like we usually do.
Not sure how that works, but we'll get it done.
 
@Yuki You spin the bottle and assign the blame to the unlucky victim
 
@PrivatePansy It seems that our spin-the-blame bottle only ever points to HR. In fact, I think HR is the only option.
 
12:33 PM
HR is always at fault, either for hiring too few people, too many people, or the wrong people
 
@Sconibulus And sometimes for hiring the right people.

Q: How long do I have to play Grand Theft Auto V to unlock all of San Andreas?

TamaI just got an e-mail saying that my GTAV has arrived at my house (I'm in New Zealand, so it's Tuesday morning). So in anticipation of happily wasting hundreds of hours of my life I'm going to pre-emptively ask this question. Every other GTA game has locked out sections of the game map until yo...

I thought GTA V took place in some city called Los Santos?
 
@Yuki Los Andreas is the state, Los Santos is the city
 
@PrivatePansy But he refers to "San Andreas" which was another city for a different GTA, iirc.

Q: Gmod hosting server

lokoI portforwarded Gmod but when I create a multiplayer game, nobody can join. This is how I portforwarded Gmod Service Port: 27000-27015 (XX-XX or XX) Internal Port: (XX, Only valid for single Service Port or leave it blank) IP Address: 192.168.x.x Protocol: all(all/tcp/udp) Status: ...

 
> The open world of Grand Theft Auto V is set in the fictional state of San Andreas, which is modelled on Southern California. [...] The world of Grand Theft Auto V, however, includes only one city, Los Santos. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Santos,_San_Andreas#Setting
 
12:43 PM
@Yuki San Andreas was the setting for GTA: San Andreas (surprise, surprise), it's the name of the state where Los Santos is located.
 
12:59 PM
GtaV map is subset of GTASA's?
