And the Content ID thing is often extremely overzealous and they make it a major pain to contest that or monetization claims

GnomeSlice

Whoa. Guys.

The guys behind Raptor Safari have a new studio and they're working on a new game.

aztez.com

This looks boss.

►

Ben Brocka

They also blatantly ignore official word from developers that it is okay for people to monetize videos of their games

fbueckert

@BenBrocka Which is an abuse of the ContentID system. For my mind, that's something Youtube should never have implemented.

Grace Note

...aw fish I was engrossed in writing about children in Elona that I forgot I had a draft for Yuki's question on making it to bosses intact in EO4. Oops.

Sterno

As announced last week, today is drama day. Please commence any and all drama.

Zero Stack

14:01

morning bridge

Sterno

I shall now exit chat so as to ensure that drama happens.

fbueckert

@Sterno Now that you're here, drama can no longer happen.

Ben Brocka

Content ID is great for videos that are literally just the song or TV show. But when it identifies 30 second clips on music in a 15 minute review/LP of a video game that's crazy

Grace Note

@Sterno Any luck catching that plant yet?

Ben Brocka

@Sterno and drama are never in the same place.... @Sterno IS drama

Unionhawk

14:02

@Sterno I thought it was Meta drama day.

Because there sure as hell has been tons of chat drama in the last week.

All when you weren't here, of course.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS: OCTOBER 21ST IS META DRAMA DAY

badp

@StrixVaria Welcome!

@Unionhawk Your definition of "drama" is flawed

Unionhawk

@badp Your face is flawed.

OOO

fbueckert

@BenBrocka It's certainly much more zealous than it needs to be.

Martin Sojka

14:07

@Unionhawk I thought today was the day that England expects that every man will do his duty.

kalina

There is no drama on meta

YOU LIED TO ME

Unionhawk

@MartinSojka Chat transcript doesn't lie.

kalina

HOW DARE YOU LIE TO ME

fbueckert

I don't know why Google's even trying to appease the dinosaurs; nothing they do that doesn't completely eliminate piracy isn't good enough for them.

kalina

creates drama about being lied to

FEichinger

14:08

@kalina I was about to say ...

Unionhawk

@kalina Sorry, should I not have edited that one about screenshot?

kalina

@Unionhawk eh, that tag needed to die

I'm glad I got there first and nuked it

but I am not satisfied

I need MOAR victims

> [...] and October 21 was declared the International Day of the Nacho.

Happy International Day of the Nacho

Ben Brocka

@fbueckert Though I think they, only recently, after years of having the system, included a "fair use" option for the counter claim form

kalina

and in lieu of tags, I'm going to burninate moderators instead

Ben Brocka

14:09

They remained willfully ignorant of fair use for as long as they could

Unionhawk

@kalina Starting with @badp?

kalina

sets fire to @BenBrocka

Unionhawk

Ah.

badp

Drama is when, months after the fact, people keep going back to the transcript, bringing up the happenings in other rooms while carefully avoiding naming names lest people will notice.

fbueckert

@BenBrocka It took a ton of backlash for that to happen. Which, again, is Google slowly moving over to the dark side.

Fluttershy

14:09

@3ventic Yayy! I'm having nachos for lunch!

badp

Drama is not discussion about meta, no matter how heated.

OrigamiRobot

@kalina multiplayer framerate performance

kalina

@badp it's interesting how this gets back to you, this ship has more holes in it than apple

Fluttershy

It's drama day? Brb. Deleting my account.

Sterno

@GraceNote I randomly ran into it once.

GnomeSlice

14:10

@kalina Why not both?

badp

Ben Brocka

@fbueckert The MPAA/RIAA and american copyright law pretty much force them to though, which is the root of the problem

3ventic

@OrigamiRobot 'mutiplayer'

kalina

@GnomeSlice I am purposely avoiding setting fire to him

Ben Brocka

we basically need to purge everything to do with copyright/patent law and start over

GnomeSlice

@kalina Oh, right.

Unionhawk

14:11

@OrigamiRobot I thought multiplayer was actually gone, then I noticed you accidentally a letter.

fbueckert

@BenBrocka Fair use is and always has been a valid use of intellectual property rights.

Grace Note

@Sterno Ahha.

fbueckert

There's a specific exemption in the DMCA for that.

kalina

@OrigamiRobot wow you're right, framerate is a horrible tag

OrigamiRobot

@Unionhawk Sorry to het your hopes up.

Ben Brocka

14:11

@fbueckert It is, though most in the entertainment industry would love you to believe it's theft and lies

Fluttershy

I don't think I've ever been set on fire. I'm not sure if I should be sad about this.

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot YOU LIED TO ME

kalina

39 questions is a bit much to do in one sitting though

Sterno

Now I'm on the 4th stratum boss and he keeps panicking everyone like a giant jerk

Unionhawk

PRACTICALLY

kalina

14:12

the fun police will get involved and accuse me of damaging the site

Kevin van der Velden

@fbueckert but doing anything other than removing first and restoring later can get you into trouble

kalina

@fbueckert

Unionhawk

Wait, crap, @Sterno is here. AS YOU WERE

fbueckert

@BenBrocka This I agree with, but the billions of dollars they shower politicians with ensures that it will never, ever, happen.

Unionhawk

ahem

fbueckert

14:12

@KevinvanderVelden Which is yet another problem with the DMCA.

Because it's rife with abuse.

Q: Will a cooling pad fix random framerate spikes on an Alienware M14X R2?

I've noticed some random framerate drops when playing video games like Outlast, Splinter Cell blacklist, etc. Everyting is set at High/Ultra settings @ 1600x900. The game runs smoothly most of the time @30 FPS, but then the framerate drops by ± 4 FPS Note that I live in New Delhi, India. And the...

Shouldn't that be at SU?

I mean, I know it's gaming hardware, but wouldn't SU be able to help more?

fbueckert

@Unionhawk He's making an assumption that it's overheating. Sounds like generic tech support to me.

Ben Brocka

@fbueckert Obama seems to actually realize patent trolls are a thing, so that's a start, not sure if anything will come of it though

Grace Note

@Sterno How were the ogres and hunters?

fbueckert

@BenBrocka Not if the pharma industries have anything to say about it.

They live off generic patents.

Ben Brocka

14:15

Not sure how big tech lobbying is compared to entertainment industry lobbying though, and congresscritters are generally old and more familiar with the entertainment industry's gripes anyway

Q: To buy or not to buy, that is the question

Fluttershy

Bridge, I am bored.

kalina

@Fluttershy +cake

fbueckert

@BenBrocka Never mind the fact that their history shows they are scared of any technology that threatens their decades old business models.

Fluttershy

@kalina Ew.

kalina

14:17

@Fluttershy it's cake that you like

Fluttershy

@kalina What kind?

kalina

angel cake

Fluttershy

@kalina Alright then. This is acceptable.

FEichinger

@kalina Oh god ... Images in my mind ... I cannot unsee.

kalina

@FEichinger what's wrong with the image of an angel covered in cake?

Arperum

14:19

@FEichinger It looks bloody. And there is half a wing and an arm poking out of it.

kalina

@Arperum that's strawberry

FEichinger

@kalina I pictured an angel baked into the cake.

kalina

@FEichinger well, be more perverted and think of an angel covered in cake

Arperum

@kalina Definitely blood. Strawberry is other red.

@kalina STOP MAKING MY MENTAL IMAGE WORSE.

Unionhawk

@kalina We're all perverts?

FEichinger

14:20

@kalina Well, if you want me to, then I shall think like that.

kalina

@FEichinger ...

@Unionhawk yes

FEichinger

That is indeed quite nice a thought.

kalina

@FEichinger now imagine you li... no, don't, I'm not even going to say it

FEichinger

@kalina ♥

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy No, we love you!

Except for your whole cake hating thing.

Fluttershy

14:21

I didn't sign up for no angel covered in cake. <_<

Unionhawk

@kalina ...

If anything it's you and @FEichinger who are the main culprits.

Fluttershy

Dear Princess Celestia, today I learned @kalina wants to be covered in cake. Today is weird.

Arperum

@Unionhawk I would stand for that statement.

GnomeSlice

somebody help me

Kevin van der Velden

@GnomeSlice check all the things. Yes including none of the above

FEichinger

14:23

@Unionhawk I'm innocent. Completely innocent. For once.

GnomeSlice

I don't think that's wise.

Fluttershy

@GnomeSlice Build a career with a larger company.

FEichinger

But I certainly do like that mental image ... Heh.

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden That's terrible.

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice This one's not as much of a trick question as it seems, I don't think.

@FEichinger LIES

5pike

14:24

@GnomeSlice #4 sounds like something a bossman likes to hear

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum which is why it's a great idea! You'll stand out :D

Arperum

@FEichinger My mental image has to much blood and dead in it.

@KevinvanderVelden Standing out by looking stupid is not good though.

kalina

@Fluttershy I imagine this could be some strange foreplay

Fluttershy

@kalina ...>_>

Kevin van der Velden

@kalina I'm sure there is a fetish for it, with several sites dedicated to it.

kalina

14:25

I'm not going to google it, that's for sure

FEichinger

@kalina I suppose that would work.

Fluttershy

@kalina You know you're tempted.

Kevin van der Velden

@kalina agreed, work tends to frown at googling that sort of thing

FEichinger

@Unionhawk Not my fault! It was all her!

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden I once found something about whole meals served that way.

kalina

14:26

@FEichinger I can imagine it would, but... filling guys full of cake would reduce the quality of their sex

OrigamiRobot

The problem with covering someone in cake is that you could be eating the cake instead.

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum I think I remember that, japanese restaurant or something?

kalina

@OrigamiRobot the cake would still be eaten

Fluttershy

@OrigamiRobot Why not both?

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden Uhm... was not that much restaurant in it. It was more of something private

OrigamiRobot

14:27

@Fluttershy Because then you're spending time not eating cake.

Sterno

@GraceNote Not bad. Can take 2 at once without much risk.

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum I recall there being a "restaurant" doing that as well, I'd google but...

Grace Note

Huh. Better than I expected.

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden Work?

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum yes, also sanity

FEichinger

14:28

@kalina You should try and find out.

kalina

@FEichinger no

I refuse

this conversation has already speculated too far

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden Don't forget the part where you can't link it here anyway without ban.

FEichinger

@kalina Well, you started the whole ... thing with the ... You know.

GnomeSlice

kalina

@FEichinger nope, @Fluttershy's weird taste in cake did

GnomeSlice

14:29

which one of these is closest to 'project was completed'?

kalina

@GnomeSlice wow, that's really bad

FEichinger

@kalina That started the cake conversation. You started the whole perverted covered in cake and ... uhm ... "consuming" said cake part.

GnomeSlice

@kalina Yeah...

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum well, I think it was a perfectly safe for work article so linking won't be a problem

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice Yeesh. Select "Terminated" and see if there's a "reason for termination" box that pops up. If not...

FEichinger

14:29

@GnomeSlice Laid Off.

Unionhawk

Yeah, actually, that one.

kalina

@FEichinger nope, it was the "angel" + "cake" combination that is responsible for everything, which is as a direct result of his taste in cake

GnomeSlice

Problem is the job was only like a month long

And it has start and end dates

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden Whatever my memory contains was definitely not.

FEichinger

@kalina Fine. I don't care, I still have the mental image and I can't get rid of it.

GnomeSlice

14:30

So if I put that I got fired after a month...

kalina

@FEichinger enjoy

FEichinger

@kalina ...

kalina

@GnomeSlice laid off != fired

Unionhawk

Yeeeah, laid off would be your choice.

Ben Brocka

yeah laid off, that's when termination is for business reasons (or temp layoffs which my company does)

GnomeSlice

14:30

FEichinger

"Laid Off" is "they didn't need me anymore/couldn't afford me anymore"

Terminated is fired.

Unionhawk

Yep, Laid off, final answer.

Fluttershy

@kalina Don't blame me for your perverted cake fetish!

GnomeSlice

Okay.

FEichinger

@Fluttershy Well, at this point it's more like it's my perverted cake fetish ...

kalina

14:31

@Fluttershy I do have a cake fetish

but it's not perverse

I don't rub cake against me

while moaning "oooh cake"

FEichinger

@kalina No, you let other-- .... You know what, no.

fredley

@RonanForman np

Unionhawk

@kalina now I finally see what you mean that you are not the perverted one here.

kalina

@FEichinger has run out of words, mission accomplished

Unionhawk

Jesus.

Kevin van der Velden

14:32

@FEichinger why is everyone stopping mid sentence? Why not let the full perversion show?

kalina

@Unionhawk I know, I'm so innocent, everybody around me is perverted

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice downsizing

FEichinger

@kalina I haven't run out of words, I just don't want to get flagged for our conversation ...

And yes, I said our conversation, it's your fault just as well, "angel".

kalina

There hasn't been a good flagging today

FLAG ALL THE THINGS

OrigamiRobot

@KevinvanderVelden Cake is the new CandleJa

Unionhawk

14:34

@FEichinger No, honestly, in this case, you were the one who ran with the "be more perverted about it" bit...

FEichinger

@Unionhawk She told me to do that.

I was perfectly content with the image of a crispy dead angel in the cake.

Unionhawk

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot huh, this is a new meme to me

5pike

@KevinvanderVelden There is a similar one, involving a snip

fbueckert

@Unionhawk That looks like a monumentally stupid thing to do.

Unionhawk

14:37

@fbueckert Yep.

Arperum

@Unionhawk I hope they have to pay for the damage caused.

GnomeSlice

wtf

Arperum

@GnomeSlice This.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice This..... is an unbelievable stupid question.

5pike

@GnomeSlice Damn

Wipqozn

14:38

Which company are you applying for?

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn PetSmart

fredley

I am sitting with my boss searching for images of Beach Volleyball. What could possibly go wrong?

Ben Brocka

Would you like to be treated badly Y/N?

Wipqozn

Yeah, I'd say they want you to check disagre because they plan to treat you like shit.

fbueckert

@fredley Carte Blanche for whatever NSFW pictures come your way?

GnomeSlice

14:39

there have been a bunch like that one too

FAE

@GnomeSlice Eugh, they are a terrible company.

fredley

@fbueckert Apparently beach volleyball is often played by busty asian girls

GnomeSlice

@FAE ?

FAE

@GnomeSlice Do you know what a puppy mill is?

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice Eugh. Strongly disagree on that one. But it's a dumb question nonetheless.

GnomeSlice

14:40

@fredley I have never seen a busty asian girl in real life.

OrigamiRobot

@KevinvanderVelden You should see the Wikipedia drama

GnomeSlice

@FAE No, but it sounds unpleasant...

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot Oh my lord I don't want to know.

FAE

Puppy mill

A puppy mill, sometimes known as a puppy farm, is a commercial dog breeding facility that is operated with an emphasis upon profits above animal welfare and is often in substandard conditions regarding the well-being of dogs in their care. Similar types of operations exist for other animals most commonly kept as pets or used as feed for other animals. The term can be applied to operations involving other animals commercially bred for profit, e.g. "kitty mills." There are an estimated 4,000 puppy mills in the U.S. that produce more than half a million puppies a year. Commercial kennels may...

fbueckert

Arperum

@fbueckert Why?

GnomeSlice

14:42

WTF

OrigamiRobot

@FAE Unfortunately, PetSmart is the only pet store close to me when I need more than litter or food.

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot meh drama 5/10, the bridge creates far higher quality drama.

fbueckert

@FAE Yes, a friend is buying me one for my birthday.

GnomeSlice

@FAE That is... ungood...

Jason Berkan

@GnomeSlice Those are moronic questions for a retail job.

OrigamiRobot

14:42

@KevinvanderVelden It was better when CandleJack had his own page.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice I fucking hate those surveys

FAE

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, they're kind of hard to avoid.

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice Change last two to disagree, strongly disagree

FAE

@fbueckert Awww, yay! :D

Arperum

@GnomeSlice You do NOT swear ever.

GnomeSlice

14:43

Oh, I was just being fucking honest.

Ben Brocka

I don't swear, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about

5pike

@GnomeSlice Protip - Don't

fbueckert

@FAE Indeed. Never owned an indoor pet before, so this will be something new for me.

Just gotta go get all the equipment I need.

FAE

@GnomeSlice Yeah. :/ I'm not like, throwing a value judgement on you or anything for applying there, just so you know, people need to work and all. Some people aren't comfortable working for companies that do stuff like that though, so I figured I'd mention.

5pike

@fbueckert For a cat? You don't need much. A litter box, 1 bowl for food and 1 for water - done.

Arperum

14:44

@fbueckert Always indoor or partly indoor/outdoor?

GnomeSlice

@FAE Appreciated.

FAE

@GnomeSlice No problem. Also those questions are stupid.

fbueckert

@Arperum -40 for several months of the year. ALWAYS indoors.

GnomeSlice

What the fuck is this

fbueckert

@5pike Still need a scratching post and a couple toys, at least.

Grace Note

14:45

A really dumb survey as far as I can tell.

OrigamiRobot

@FAE I always go by the cat area and think "I wish I could rescue you all T_T"

GnomeSlice

Did I answer those right?

FAE

@fbueckert Don't forget a lint brush. You wear snappy clothes for dancing and stuff sometimes, you're not going to want that covered in cat hair.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice wow

Arperum

@fbueckert I'd still say partly outdoor for the months that it is above zero.

FAE

@OrigamiRobot Yeah. :(

fbueckert

@FAE Yes, definitely going to need that.

@OrigamiRobot I had a friend who had a siamese. She was the most cantankerous and mean cat I've ever met.

OrigamiRobot

I've never seen a friendly Siamese

GnomeSlice

@fbueckert Aye. Unsure if you have carpeting or bare floors or both, but you'll end up with dust bunnies on bare floors that float about or buildup on carpets around furniture legs. Don't forget to vacuum the underneath of couches/easy chairs/anything with a cloth underside.

Arperum

@fbueckert You can learn any cat to lay on your shoulders, if you start with it earl enough. I (and only I) place our cat in my neck without problems, same for the cat at my parents.

5pike

@fbueckert I lived with cats my whole life + my father is a veterinarian. The best cats are crossbreeds.

OrigamiRobot

14:52

@Arperum Unless they get too giant.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice I'm going to say disagree.

fbueckert

@Arperum This one was awesome. Her legs would dangle down, and she purred like a rusty mower.

Sterno

Is Canada big on mind-fucking people before hiring them, or is @GnomeSlice just good at finding the weird ones.

Arperum

@OrigamiRobot You can try placing a tigezr in your neck, but you'd need a rather big neck for that.

Kevin van der Velden

@Arperum rats are awesome for that! My friend has a rat he just puts into his coat and takes along with him on the bike :)

Wipqozn

The two places I've seen him post these things are for Walmart and PetSmart, both of which are known for being horrible.

Literally worse than hitler even!

Arperum

@KevinvanderVelden I'm not a rat person. Growing up on a farm doesn't help with that.

fbueckert

@Sterno I want to say this isn't standard, but then, I point you at my horror stories from my last job.

GnomeSlice

I don't understand.

FAE

@Sterno Walmart and Petsmart are both American chains, so I don't think it's Canada crazy we're seeing here.
