Now why would you think that?
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh. Okay then! kisses your fingers too! See, magic. That's totally how it works over the internet. nods sagely
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Because it'd be impossible to be more receptive than @AshleyNunn when it comes to finger-kissing.
 
user15026
@Yuki What can I say, I like affection, especially when it is kisses.
 
:o What did I just walk in on?
 
@Fluttershy Standard Bridge fare.
 
user15026
12:10 AM
@Fluttershy @FAE kissed my finger better!
 
@AshleyNunn With magic.
 
@AshleyNunn Oh my. Carry on then!

Q: Where's the contradiction in this shoe?

Ajedi32I'm playing through the original Phoenix Wright game, and I'm stuck on a particular part of the "Rise from the Ashes" case. No matter what I do (raise objections, press the witness, etc), everything keeps coming back to this shoe: But no matter what part of the shoe I point to, nobody seems co...

 
Hmmm.... I could go to sleep, I could keep reading blogs, I could play more Banished.... decisions decision.
 
Sleep is great.
 
But reading about heresy is also great.
 
@Wipqozn Says the youngest 60 year old in the Bridge.
 
user43095
But playing Banished is also great.
 
12:35 AM
@Fluttershy I have become @Sternold.
 
user15026
Happy faced bandaid makes everything better.

Q: How do you get common debris?

StrixVariaThe tooltip for common debris says that you can get it from salvaging "normal" items. Does that mean "white" items? I haven't seen a single one drop since the new patch. Since all the new recipes I've seen call for common debris, it seems pretty important to farm a lot of it if you want to craft...

 
12:50 AM
@Arperum I think the text outside of the box is more likely to be a programming error
 
I feel really dumb right now
I'm trying to use utorrent
I've used it before
 
Also, hello Bridge, I'm coming to you live from the middle of an auditorium full of bored people who wisj they'd be doing something more worthwhile with their time but are forced be here
 
I'm trying to paste in the magnet link, but no torrent is displayed in the list
It's just... not there
 
@PrivatePansy Sounds familiar
 
and when I try again, it says that I've already added it
I'm just all wtf
 
12:53 AM
Hey all the fabulous on web, I was told you can sorta see percentage of how much a person spoke in chat. Can anyone point me to the site that can help me to resolve my curiosity? ex) Private Pansy had spoke 1000 lines out of 200000 lines spoke in chat this week.
 
Then again I think I've just described the entirety of our army
It consists of people who wish they'd be doing something better with their I'm
Time, rather
 
FAE
#GetCovered: http://www.HealthCare.gov, http://t.co/aLgNi2Bq4l
The... the image.
 
@BlueBug I don't know about a percentage but you can see some of those stats on the room info page
 
FAE
That's the official twitter of the US Department of Health and Human Services. I... I don't even.
 
such dead meme
 
12:59 AM
much corpse
 
I thought it was dead when members of the US Congress twittered it
 
user43095
I never thought it was alive..

@Frank You're so popular.
 
@Frank Yay!
 
1:07 AM
@Wipqozn I know! And I just did it again, too!
Anyways, it's time for me to head out! Be back later!
 
Good night!

Q: If I restart my game, will my friends stay on my list?

Shadow ZorgonI plan on re-starting my Pokemon X and Y, and I have a lot of Friend Safaris/Friends. If I re-start my game, will I keep my friends on my friends list?

 
@Lazers ...
 
user15026
@Lazers facedesk
 
WTF. I just got my gas bill for the month and it was $334.
 
@Sterno Gas bill?
 
As in the gas that powers my furnace
 
1:36 AM
oh right.
I forgot furnaces were a thing
We just use a wood stove, and our old place had electric heat.
 
This is my first bill in the new house. My old place would have been like $100
 
That's quite the jump.
 
Actually, since I still own the old place, I just checked. It was $117.
 
Might be an hour or furnace.
 
Stupid need for shelter and warmth.
 
1:39 AM
Old furnace. Stupid phone.
 
@Sterno Are you renting the old place out, or just haven't founda buyer for it yet?
 
@Wipqozn Not even on the market yet. It goes up this weekend.
We had to finish fixing it up.
This place is a lot bigger though, so some of it makes sense. I just didn't expect 3 times the bill.
Oh, hey!
$94 "service charge"
They probably jacked me for moving in.
Which sucks, but is good in the sense that this bill is probably $100 higher than normal
 
Yeah, those fees are stupid. "We're going to charge you because we can!"
 
Yeah! Stupid fees!
 
Jesus Christ, why is my internet so slow right now
 
1:46 AM
You have Internet?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice intrigued, follows
 
@AshleyNunn =]
 
2:04 AM
Ugh. My arms hurt.
Bicep Curls.
Not even once.
 
@RavenDreamer Oh. That's not where my brain was going...
 
@Fluttershy I could maybe see where you were inferring if that was singular...?
 
<_<
 
GnomeSlice is singular
;_;
 
user15026
@RavenDreamer I dunno, sometimes you need two hands.

2:08 AM
Wow, what an interesting thing to see as I turn my attention back here.
 
@Garan This is a pretty common refrain 'round these parts.
 
I used to have quite a thing with @FAE and @spugsley back in the day.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well, in this case it was varying between sarcasm and not. I may have genuinely been interested in hearing that over what I was hearing at various parts of the day.
 
wonk s a'plenty.
And now I walk uphill through the snow, both ways.
 
user15026
@RavenDreamer Shock BUT @spugsley is MY wife!
 
2:11 AM
@RavenDreamer PFFF. You don't even know from snow.
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer Obviously, you just need to be around more.
 
@AshleyNunn I seem to recall a little Ashley on the side, now and again.
 
user15026
@RavenDreamer You know I love you.
 
Wow. And I thought Heinlein was complicated in that regard.
 
2:11 AM
I think I'm in lesbians with both of you.
(Scott Pilgrim reference, hey!)
 
@Fluttershy Oh god. That episode :D
 
Speaking of, I heard Texas found gay marriage bans unconstitutional today.
 
user15026
@RavenDreamer highfive
 
user15026
@RavenDreamer Yeah. So that is good progress.
 
There was a stay, of course, because Texas.
One of the plaintiffs is the awesomely named, "Cleopatra De Leon"
@Fluttershy Geez, that's actually a .GIF?
 
2:14 AM
Well, shit. I wonder if my daughter is attached to her name, because that one sounds pretty awesome.
 
@RavenDreamer Yis.
 
@RavenDreamer Eh, there wasn't a stay 'because texas'. There was a stay pending appeal because not allowing marriages until appeals are exhausted is the least destructive outcome for all involved.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I defer to your opnion, then.
 
If you force the state to allow all marriages immediately, and then on appeal, the decision is reversed, what happens to all those marriages?
Are they invalidated?
Are only those marriages conducted within the 6 months of litigation valid?
If they are invalidated, how do you retroactively deal with any rights extended, including, but not limited to tax advantages and healthcare during that time?
 
Smart move is to say "Well, fuck, these people got married, screw this whole appeal thing, let's just stop being stupid and allow it."
Everyone wins except the homophobes!
 
2:16 AM
Are those couples suddenly going to get tons of bills from insurance companies claiming that their marriage was a sham, and send them bills?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz 'merica
 
@GnomeSlice No, not "'merica'".
This is basic fucking jurisprudence.
 
@Sterno HOW DARE YOU DISCRIMINATE AGAINST A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz juriwhat?
 
You don't overturn a law while the appeal is pending if the reenactment of the law is potentially even more harmful and burdensome to all parties than simply waiting to overturn it.
@GnomeSlice Jurisprudence; "Law talking".

user15026
You know what I miss? Standalone YA or Fantasy or ANYTHING books.
 
@AshleyNunn Get into New Weird. There's tons of awesome standalone stuffs.
 
2:37 AM
@AshleyNunn As in, their existence or your reading of them?
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz New Weird?
 
user15026
@Garan I miss there being a time when not everything was a series
 
@AshleyNunn Also, livejournal. Oh, my.
 
@AshleyNunn A group of 'fantasy' writers that roughly reflect a version of the genre if Mervyn Peake had been as successful as that Oxford Linguistics professor.
 
user15026
@Garan Yeah, I lurk.
 
user15026
2:38 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Intrigued.
 
(Also heavily heavily influenced by Lovecraft, New Wave SF, some other stuff.)
 
@ash i have learnes my lesson.
 
user15026
@Stizzle84 Good.
 
@AshleyNunn Best intro to the genre that I can think of would be Jeff Vandermeer
 
@AshleyNunn Would a set of books in the same universe but other than that unconnected intrigue you?
 
2:39 AM
Check out Shriek: An Afterword.
 
user15026
@Garan Yes, if I dont HAVE to read them all.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah, it's your fault that is on my to-read list.
 
@ash sorry about it
 
@AshleyNunn OK! So when I get around to writing them, I'll let you know.
 
@AshleyNunn Oh, then this opens up several other new weird and new weird adjacent stuff - China Mieville, for example.
@AshleyNunn Yes! And it is good!
 
user15026
2:40 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Mieville keeps getting recommended to me, but I never know where to start.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz My library does not have it :(
 
user15026
Which sucks. I have zero book money.
 
@AshleyNunn Start with Perdido Street Station if you want steampunk, Kraken if you want modern urban fantasy, Embassytown if you want Scifi, and The City and The City if you want noir/crime drama but weird.
 
@AshleyNunn This person likes Discworld, therefore I like them
Also, I couldn't get into Mieville
 
user15026
@SaintWacko She is great. I need to get my hands on her stuff, too, when, well, money.
 
2:41 AM
I need to figure out something that can be written in one sitting so I don't get distracted by working on other stuff.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Was that last one a typo or a repetitive title?
 
@AshleyNunn repetitive title
The City and the City.
It's a murder mystery/crime drama set in a fictitious eastern european city state - or rather, in a pair of them which exist in the same physical space.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz That was the one I attempted to read
 
@SaintWacko I quite liked it.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz It sounded cool, but I just couldn't get into it
 
user15026
2:44 AM
I have to watch what I read - there are certain types of writing styles that make me all weird and echo-y so I can't read them.
 
user15026
(Or I spent forever mumbling sentences under my breath and rolling them over my tongue)
 
@AshleyNunn What sort of styles?
 
I really should at some point finish my book.
Though a fair amount of it is Fantasyland stuff.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I dunno, weird stuff. Jasper Fforde, Kelly Link, Gregory Maguire...
 
@AshleyNunn Kelly Link would be another author I'd lump under New Weird fwiw.
 
user15026
2:49 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah. :) Not sure what it is about her style.
 
So many years to work on it and so much money, and the Steam Store page is still super slow to load
 
One of the things that urks me about fantasy books is that either they conform their laws of magic to a specific existing idea, or they try to make magic a replacement for existing tech.
I want to try writing a basic system, and then trying to figure out what within that system would be practical to do.
 
(Others include Felix Gilman, Jeff Ford, KJ Bishop, M John Harrison, Steph Swainston.)
 
Rules such as "It takes 3.5 thaums (optimally) to lift one kilogram of matter one meter off the ground."
Those never seem to be codified.
 
@Sterno This is the #1 reason I don't buy as much from Steam as I could.
 
2:53 AM
And that bugs me to no end.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Good boy.
 
Name of the Wind did much in the way of not falling in the first trap
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Maybe they do it as a self-defense mechanism because they can't take our money any faster than they already are.
 
But the "sympathy lamps" are straight up tech replacement.
 
@GnomeSlice It's not like I end up buying things elsewhere instead.
 
2:54 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Well, still.
 
@Garan Oh, do you read Discworld, too?
 
@SaintWacko I do, but that's not where that term comes from.
Another word for magic is thaumaturgy.
 
Hello people
Again
 
@Stizzle84 Good morning.
 
@Garan Right, that phrasing sounds really familiar, though
 
2:57 AM
Morning?
 
@Garan Probably because a long list of technical details would not be of interest to most readers.
 
@SaintWacko It used to be one of the schools of magic in the Elder Scrolls series.
@Sterno That is why there are appendices.
 
It is 9:57
Pm
 
@Stizzle84 *4:57AM
 
@Garan Oh, no, I don't mean thaumaturgy, nothing unusual about that, I mean the "It takes 3.5 thaums (optimally) to lift one kilogram of matter one meter off the ground." sounds really familiar
 
2:58 AM
I live in florida
Where do u live
 
@Stizzle84 Israel
@SaintWacko Something to do with doves, I believe.
 
@Stizzle84 A/S/L?
4
 
@Garan Ah, that's right!
 
user15026
@Garan Yeah, it is defiinitely also tickling my brainmeat.
 
2:59 AM
I think you might be in the wrong room.
 
user15026
@Sterno facedesk
 
Oh, nevermind, I missed him saying what time it was.
I thought you were asking out of the blue where everyone lived. :P
 
:D
