@kalina unfortunate
Graveyard shift sentry guard duty yay
This weekend I'll spend less than 24h at home
So whenever any of you think about how bad your hours are, just think about me

Q: Can the entrance to the black market spawn in the lake?

SteininCan the black market entrance spawn in the piranha lake in the jungle?

12:49
12 hours to go!
Working 7 days a week sucks.
Same for me, actually.
It's 2100 hours here, and my duty ends at 0800 tomorrow, so 11 hours to go.
And then we have to get back to camp by 1930 hours tomorrow.
What a wonderful weekend
:(
at least you gave the internet to distract you from duty
your time spent here will be used against you.
Sentry duty consists of standing in a 1.5x0.5m box with a rifle for two hours. You get four hours rest afterwards, and this goes on for 24 hours
I'm on break right now
You also get five rounds of live ammunation, which you will only use if something really serious happens
@PrivatePansy Five rounds sounds just enough to do a lot of stupid stuff, but not enough if you would actually need to shoot someone
We always got a full magazine on watch duty
I've passed the Basic Trainfire Package, in which you're suppose to be able to hit a man sized figure from 50m away
Oh, and of course the rifle isn't loaded. You're suppose to be able to switch from the empty magazine to the loaded one in 6 seconds
Each of us is also suppose to carry around a rules of engagement card that tells us when to fire. It's ridiculously vague to the point of being almost completely useless
13:01
oh what
Windows Defender just quarantined Steam
@kalina Finally someone's doing something about that menace!
Hmmm. There is a privilege escalation vulnerability found recently in Steam, but I don't believe it is being exploited out in the wild
@kalina Fuckin' finally. Installing things and launching things like it's a boss.
Unrequested downloads, phoning home, barely legal gambling, DRM brutality all around
I was playing a game at the time though :(
@PrivatePansy The good thing is that nothing ever happens, so you won't need the rules of engagement.
13:05
You should consider yourself lucky, lady.
hardly, my steam account has more money spent on it than my pc cost to build
@MadScientist except for the one moment in three years when your attention phases out
Yeah. The commander in charge did mention something about a combat riot drill which we need to familiarize ourselves with, and I was thinking where in the world would we have a riot in the middle of an industrial zone in the middle of nowhere on a Saturday night
@kalina see? it's an evil, evil money sink. You should be using more secure options, like the Windows Store. I think they have Wordament there. Now that's a nice, safe, educational game-like experience.
nooooooooooooo I dont wanna use windows store
pleeease don't make me use the windows store
13:07
@badp The only time I was actually a tiny bit worried when on guard duty was on the first anniversary of 9/11. But nothing ever happens that would actually require one to shoot at someone
@badp Hey, don't diss Wordament. I don't want to think how many hours I sunk into that game on my WP7 phone
I want to eat food but I don't want to get dressed to go and fetch food
help me resolve this dilemma
@kalina ... same
Just download some food, duh
2
I had a large sleep debt this week, so obviously I woke up at 8am
13:08
I heard you can also download some RAM too if your computer is running slow
then I watched a couple videos, rolled over and suddenly it's 2pm
@badp you know, I hate waking up in the AM, and yet I woke up naturally without an alarm at 8am too
my carbon monoxide alarm was still beeping at me
so that's now in pieces on my bedroom floor
I'm just worried that if I keep rolling over suddenly it's 8pm and then all the shops go kaputt.
I... wouldn't do that if I were you
and I'm wearing pink pyjamas and a coat
bah I'm just going to go to the shop in my pyjamas, nobody will notice
2
13:10
@PrivatePansy I know! I'm even need to buy a new box of salt!
@kalina depends, what if it's suddenly hot and you'd like to take off your coat?
The only upside to guard duty on a Saturday is that the food the cookhouse is serving is the best I've tasted since BMT
@badp then I'll take off my coat
I don't care, my stomach is overriding my shame
@kalina and expose your pajama secret!
okay.
its not like they're covered in ponies or something
Huh. o.ô
13:12
@kalina I always knew you were the exhibitionist type
hardly
@PrivatePansy this is hardly news
my pyjamas show less flesh than the clothes I turn up to the office in
@kalina This obviously needs fixing
I have a fluttershy throw pillow
I don't need pony pyjamas
I have 3 more pillows to buy
because I'm not interested in an apple jack or rarity pillow
13:14
@kalina So ... Fluttershybestpony then, huh?
@FEichinger no
rainbow dash is best pony
I'm gonna interpret it how I like! And I like to interpret it as proof that you think fluttershybestpony.
why are you doing this
Because I'm bored.
Also tired. And slightly hungover.
ButtStallion is best pony.
13:16
@kalina for pillow fights?
I'm still damaged from googling clopfic, I don't think I can like MLP anymore
2
@kalina So, you've now seen the error in your ways? That's great!
there are no errors in my ways
the rest of the world, however, has serious serious issues.
13:19
GOOD MORNING PEOPLE
@TrentHawkins that is not what I pictured Butt Stallion.
I HAVE RETURNED AND YOU CAN NOW STOP CRYING
ESPECIALLY @BADP! I ASSUME HIS TEARS WERE THE STRONGEST OF ALL
@Wipqozn BUT I LIKE CRYING. occasionally
@kalina And you were naive enough to not see them. That's on you.
@Wipqozn nobody cried once
not a single tear was shed for the turtle
2
13:24
@kalina Oh please, you guys were clearly falling over each other in tears.
@Wipqozn THiS IS A FREE COUNTRY YOU WILL NOT GO AROUND TELLING PEOPLE WHEN NOT TO CRY
I CANNOT STAND FOR THIS KIND OF ABUSE
@Wipqozn Well we weren't, and then you showed up.
welp @Wipqozn, at least this time it wasn't @LessPop_MoreFizz that removed you
@StackExchange Nooooo, foiled again!
@badp But you love abuse!
3
You mod abuse all the time!
Really, this should just improve your opinion of me. I should be given a reward.
13:30
3 mins ago, by Stack Exchange
^-- There you have your reward.
@kalina you like the time travel stuff? then Rewind might be a series for you
@kalina Wait, you bought that throw pillow from etsy I linked here a whie back?
is missing from the room tags!
I'll edit in! Oh wait...I can't...
Also, @kalina
13:37
@PrivatePansy That just looks creepy.
I'd be afraid that was going to come alive in the middle of the night to feast on my bones.
@Wipqozn Well that makes sense, because ponies are creepy.
3
Feasting on bones is what they do.
@PrivatePansy somewhat less suitable for a trip to the shop that what I'm wearing
nobody even noticed anyway
@PrivatePansy actually I found somebody selling cases, I have shitloads of throw pillows
but like most I do, I kinda partially committed and then never finished

Q: How exactly does suppression work?

galacticninjaI chose to concentrate my skill points in the Enforcer skill tree, which has the Oppression skill. It can make weapons "more effective at suppressing enemies". To further understand how to take advantage of the 'Oppression' skill, I have these questions: Do I have to hit enemies before they get...

13:54
If ronnie had been elected mod, these abuses would never happen.
Oh Ronnie, he was the moderator deserved.
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is the worst cartoon I've ever been subjected to.
@Wipqozn But not the one Gotham needs right now.
@Sterno That's the one with the really terrible 3D animations, right?
All right, I'm naming this goat Pokemon after @Sterno simply because it has a beard.
13:57
@Wipqozn one of the many. What makes it stand out is that Mickey is creepy and sets off my pedophile-detecting radar. Plus, he always makes everyone else do things, and inserts his name into every song, object, and password that he can. He's an egomaniac.
@Yuki @fbueckert would also work because goats are grumpy.
How did you know I have a beard? Are you looking in my window right now? I need to find pants.
@Sterno He's let all that fame go to his head.
@Sterno Don't old people have beards? Not always, I know, but I see a lot of old people with beards.
Anyone know that site that tells you how much your Steam library is worth?
13:58
@Fluttershy I know of it.
Hmm... @fgrumpbert works as well...
Rice and chilli for breakfast, not the best idea I've ever had
Also, I got my Squirtle and I named him @Wipqozn.
2
@Yuki <3
GOOD MORNING PEOPLE AND OTHERS OF THE BRIDGE
13:59
Wait, I can't name this goat @fbueckert. The Pokedex entry says, "One of the first Pokemon to live in harmony with humans."
@Fluttershy steamcalculator.com but its offline
@Sternold it is, then.
@Fluttershy steamdb.info/calculator looks similar
I might get X/Y for Christmas
I should make a point to play through black/white first though.
Since I own it, but stopped playing half way through.
I have never played a pokemon game
not once
not even for a second
and, I don't think I've ever witnessed somebody else playing one either
14:01
X/Y feels really different compared to the older ones.
I just chose ponies over Mickey Mouse. That's how much I hate him.

@Sterno ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US
@Sterno as a father who dislikes ponies, are you purposely avoiding showing your daughter MLP:FIM?
@kalina no. She's just not old enough to care yet. TV is mostly background noise, unless she's eating a snack or drinking
just think about how many important things she could learn about friendship and magic if you started putting it on
14:04
She has MLP toothpaste and a MLP toothbrush. My daughter can have any and all ponies she wants. I just don't feel the need to personally watch it myself.
they make MLP toothpaste?
brb shopping
facepalm
There's nothing wrong with the target audience watching MLP ... There is something odd and creepy when it's half the Internet population, most of which are not in the target audience at all.
@kalina safe if swallowed! You can eat it by the tube!
14:06
@kalina Now I am sad. <_<
@Fluttershy why are you sad?
"Worth: $4083.95"
@Fluttershy ah
yeah
and they've got a habit of using updated, discounted prices as well
so that's a conservative estimate
I'm certain I don't want to know my steam library's worth... checks
@Fluttershy I'm sure you could get a car for that
14:08
Wait. Why does is pony on TV have a horn? Doesn't that make it a unicorn instead of pony?
@kalina Probably.
I remember last time I checked, DOTA 2 skewed the entire value.
This show is factually inaccurate!
$1,200. Not nearly as bad, but with a 51% not-played percentage.
Especially since I got a lot of those in humble bundles
@Sterno Yes.
There are 3 kinds of ponies.
Earth Ponies, Unicorn Ponies, and Pegasus Ponies.
14:09
I have to make my profile public to value it
Oh crap, I have ~£800 worth of games.
They have the entire stat list in BBCode, which is quite handy today... >.>
I'm sure most of them were discounted/humble bundle/gifts though.
4 mins ago, by Fluttershy
"Worth: $4083.95"
@Unionhawk I'm not saying it's a lot. Just it's way more than I expected.
14:12
£1877.45 / $2604.38 - 67% not played
@RonanForman Yeah, I don't know what I expected, with the Humble Bundle.
But I know I spent far too much this last big sale
In this year's sale, I spent "0"
I know this because I'm burning through my summer job money quick (that $200 speeding ticket didn't help either...)
Worth: $2239.41
I apparently signed up to Steam July 1, 2010 – 11:12:13 UTC
14:13
Games owned 177
Games not played 71 (40%)
Hours spent 1,285.8h
1,006.2h
but that's pretty much all in four games
5150.37
Simcity 4, Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Payday 2
1,118.7h
makes up over 600 hours
14:15
And holy crap man
@Sterno I know your last name now!
@Wipqozn Stern Old
It was ony our steam profile all along.
Hours spent: 2,059.6h
Daaaaang.
zomg
14:17
wastedonsteam.com is a thing as well.
Odd, apparently I own Recettear, I never even realised.
@RonanForman I love when that happens.
And L4D2, which I think I knew.
I know my Mass Effect time plays are wrong
I'm trying to work out if I'm getting memories mixed up though, because I pirated the first one and played it to death long before I bought it
I wonder what would happen if 4 people walked into a bank wearing the payday gang masks irl
@kalina They'd get asked to take them off.
If they didn't they'd be arrested, if they resisted they'd be shot,.
It's not hard to work out.
14:22
that's not very creative, my imagination rejects your logic and replaces it with explosions
Actually it depends, if they were carrying guns step 1 would be skipped and maybe even step 2.
I duno what banks in nottingham you go to but last I checked they didn't have guns
Between my top 4 games (TF2, Payday 2, Skyrim, Portal 2), I've played 749.5 hours.
443.1 of which are TF2.
I'm impressed a portal game made it into your top played
@kalina I was assuming this was america, seeing as that's where payday is set.
Maybe they'd get tasered.
14:24
@RonanForman I was assuming this was the UK, since that's the country I'm in
@kalina It was one of the games I could get my ex to play back in the day, and we played the co-op for hours
long story
Actually all the banks I've been in are really small so they don't even have guards.
@RonanForman Are you asking if "Security" people are allowed to carry guns and/or assault rifles? Generally no. But sometimes.
makes stealthing easier
Generally, the "sometimes" cases are where those guys are actual police
14:26
@Unionhawk I was thinking the really large banks.
But they don't carry assault rifles
they certainly wouldn't turn up and immediately open fire
and I don't think you'd ever see a bulldozer in a real encounter
@kalina Certainly not.
and they wouldn't arrive in 0.5 seconds
so
we've had enough practice
lets hit a real bank
and then buy a small island
You have a better chance at getting out with the money. Not so much at not getting caught in the long run.
14:28
I will turn up in my pyjamas with a rainbow dash mask on
nobody will even see me
... Uh huh.
@RonanForman I mean, I worked at an amusement park for 3 seasons. We had 2 classes of security. The assholes in white shirts who were not trusted with a firearm, and the dudes in black shirts who were actual policemen, and therefore, carried a firearm. Dunno about a bank.
payday 2 taught me I can take a shotgun blast at point blank range while wearing no armour and it won't kill me
@kalina ...let me know how that works out for you
14:32
@Unionhawk the fact I'd be able to let you know indicates you have faith it will work
@Sterno They make MLP glue. Now that's disturbing
2
@PrivatePansy D: Somebody didn't think this through.
All I'm going to add to this subject is...
image not found!
It's for the best
My Little Pony toilet paper is probably not the best merchandising move ever
14:37
@kalina I'll be honest, that will not get you many friends in school.
I know what @kalina wants for christmas.
@Yuki Yeah, but it will get you all the cool friends.

Q: What is this creepy place?

ZibbobzSo I'm playing Terraria 1.2, delving in the underground beneath a regular ol' Forest biome, when suddenly I stumble into this place. The cute little critter at the bottom is a Cochnial Beetle. The background is completely different from any underground biome I've ever seen, and I can't fin...

Q: How do I mine using Ripley?

XenoxI've gotten the hang of mining the asteroid as a shaft miner, and recently discovered Ripley in the charging bay. I entered the exosuit, loaded an ore box in it and quickly set off to do some mining. However, even though a drill is attached I don't seem to be able to mine. How do I use Ripley t...

Hmmm... who would be a poodle?
Hmm, if you hover over a link in the stars list its all lowercase with no punctuation.
Ah, it's taking it out of the URL I think.
14:45
Yay, got the event Torchic!
Gonna name him @Unionhawk.
I wonder if I can changed the URL and have it be a different title.

Oh it does!
I'm done abusing using my room ownership now.
done*
@kalina cheers.
I'm bored
@Wipqozn I've never made an effort to keep it secret.
14:51
@kalina Me too. I'm supposed to be going shopping though.
shopping is boring, explosions and fire are far more fun
You need to find a fire sale.
@kalina Why do you think I haven't gone?
I'm not going out again this weekend anyway, I cba sorting my hair and I cba getting dressed
I might actually move one of these PCs into my bedroom along with a TV and a gamepad
because then I can be in bed while gaming
huh... a new jurassic park movie is being made
because that's exactly what is missing from the world of movies right now
Need more kids gymnastics kicking dinosaurs and hacking "unix systems"
@Wipqozn level 13 is half mapped now!
15:22
@Yuki pokeymans is for childrens
@Sterno Well shit, now you're ahead of me!
@Sterno pfft, you totally havve
15:38
You'd think with the number of people picking up pokemon, I'd net more than 4 street-passes. :/
@Wipqozn iceporn?
@PrivatePansy Is it made out of ponies?
@Wipqozn I've given my first name, email address, location, employer name, and photos in this chat. And my last name is in my email.
@Sterno Well, clearly, it's a conspiracy.
Clearly.
15:49
...
How many times do we need to tell you to not link nudity in chat without some sort of warning? Jesus christ.
What? It's not nudity
what are you talking about
Yes, it is.
I just watched the entire thing and didn't see any nudity
There's a shot of someones ass within the 5 first seconds.
There's a half naked women dancing about 1/4 of the way through.
I didn't even notice, sorry.
If there is, it's not for very long.
15:53
There's an ass shot within 5 seconds. How didn't you notice?
Also wtf that youtube upload is horrible quality
Well I like it so thanks :) Question is tho, if that's considered PG then why isn't it marked as such on YouTube? It shouldn't even play here then, or display a pic of it, if it was indeed considered as such
It appears to be marked 'mature' on vimeo
Which is honestly, pretty silly
@MichaelDunfield I have a big photo calendar of similar images, only body painting ... brilliant, everyone loves it and I mean everyone
@TildalWave Did you watch the whole thing?
It turns into some pretty amazing animated stuff
