I use Dropbox for game saves so all my devices have the latest games/saves/savestates so I can continue playing without fuss

Fluttershy

@Lazers wat

SaintWacko

I have it encrypt filenames, though

Origami Robot

@BenBrocka This was the best thing I ever did with DropBox

GnomeSlice

@Lazers He asked this earlier today

FEichinger

@Fluttershy That entire user is ... kind of a mess.

Yuki

21:00

Whoo, beat the campaign.

Ben Brocka

@OrigamiRobot and most cloud storage things won't even let you 2 way sync like that. I got a nice android app to do it automatically

Origami Robot

Too bad I have to look up how to join folders in Windows everytime I need to do it again

Ben Brocka

@OrigamiRobot function? I have a thing that does it via right click

My steam library is a tangled web of junctions from an SSD to an HDD and, in some cases, back to a second SSD

Origami Robot

I have no idea what you're talking about

Oh, junction, yes.

Ben Brocka

Yes, junction...f isn't even near j

GnomeSlice

21:02

wtf? When did this get so close to complete?

Maybe I enabled it over lunch

Kevin van der Velden

@BenBrocka it kinda is, same finger different hand

FAE

@BenBrocka Huh, we didn't have that problem. It definitely uploaded at a few MBps here for us. We have 15Mbit up though, maybe it'll only use a certain percentage of your upload?

Kevin van der Velden

@GnomeSlice uuuh, it downloaded almost a megabyte

That is not anywhere near near complete

GnomeSlice

@KevinvanderVelden The game is 3.4 GB

I validated the files (it worked surprisingly) and now it only has 141 MB left

Kevin van der Velden

@GnomeSlice okay, odd

GnomeSlice

21:03

It was at like 2.2 GB this morning

I was thinking about how I type and pressed enter instinctively.

QUICK: at a wedding with 72 guests arranged in 8 tables, no matter how you shuffle people, there is always at least 1 table with just men in it. How many men are there at the wedding at the very least?

GnomeSlice

@badp 72

Yuki

@badp How many "mens"?

Kevin van der Velden

21:07

@badp 72-7: 65

GnomeSlice

So the time limit download feature on Steam doesn't work any more

Thx Valve

badp

Sorry, there's 9 tables in the original question

but yes, 65 with 8 tables.

GnomeSlice

Nope, nevermind, Steam just decided to reset both times to 12 AM

Kevin van der Velden

:14268354 because if you remove 8 you can shuf...

Then one less

Wipqozn

:14268354 8 tables. If you can't sit a woamn at every table then #woman = #tables -1

therefore math

Yuki

21:08

@badp Depends on how many people can sit at each table.

Wipqozn

@Yuki No it doesn't.

Yuki

@Wipqozn YES, IT DOES WHEN I HAVEN'T COMPLETELY FINISHED THINKING YET.

Also, what color are the tablecloths?

Wipqozn

for this situation to occur there then #woman < #tables

Which means at most there are #tables - 1 woman, therefore there are at least #men = #guests - #tables + 1

Math is fun!

Yuki

Or just use the pigeonhole principle.

Which may be what you're explaining, but I can't tell if that's what you're doing.

FEichinger

@Yuki Technically, you're correct in one circumstance: A table with no seats.

Yuki

21:13

64 men means that, spread out evenly, you have 8 men at each table. Therefore, once you have 65, no matter how you distribute, there will always be at least one table with 9 guys (a full table).

GnomeSlice

Just a heads up, if anyone was thinking of getting Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae on Steam, don't.

It's not good.

Ben Brocka

@FAE Only if it uses 1%

FAE

Hm, I dunno

Q: IRC client for very popular channels

I find myself watching streams with huge amounts of viewers (30k+) and joining the chat makes my IRC client (Hexchat) freeze and/or crash at times as it tries to list all the users and keep up with joins and leaves. I'm looking for a client that Requirements supports Windows 7 and 8 can cope w...

windows irc

FEichinger

21:17

@FEichinger Then again, this depends on your definition of "just men". Is that ∀(p ∈ people-at-table) : p is male or is it ∄(p ∈ people-at-table) : p is female?

3ventic

</advert>

badp

marks the date on the calendar: @GnomeSlice said a game is not good.

Doorknob

@3ventic are you implying @FEichinger is an advert? CONSPIRACY! :O

GnomeSlice

@badp Okay?

Lots of games are not good

I just don't talk about games I don't like

3ventic

@Doorknob You'll never know

Although doorknobs make for good spies. Nobody ever suspects the doorknob!

Walls have ears, but doorknobs? No. Nobody suspects a thing.

Doorknob

21:19

@3ventic shhhhhh

don't tell anyone

3ventic

I google doorknobs and the first thing I see is:

> Doorknobs have been banned in Vancouver, Canada

2

Doorknob

@3ventic How dare they?!

I will hunt them down

...although that might be slightly difficult, given that I'm an inanimate object

badp

@3ventic tell me if irssi works. It's the single best IRC client I'm aware of, but even though it has no displayed user list, it still maintains it internally so for exceedingly busy channels it will sometimes freeze for a few seconds every time Twitch sends its massive waves of joins and parts.

3ventic

I think the main issue was that the GUI couldn't keep up with the list

badp

My experience was in the days of TPP Red, but that was 80k viewers

@3ventic irssi is a terminal only client.

3ventic

21:22

@badp That would probably help it a bit

badp

but I don't think any irssi client out there has been built with twitch levels of spam in mind

3ventic

except for twitch chat..

badp

if you can make irssi work, though, you can tell it not to show messages matching regular expressions and whatnot

FAE

@badp It doesn't

3ventic

The web-based chats seem to be doing fine, I might install one on my website and use that

FAE

21:23

At least at the height of TPP, one of my friends tried and it crashed his entire session

This is so weird

We're like raising and lowering the difficulty and spawning zombies and shit

badp

@FAE to be fair, he's talking about 30k streams. TPP was bigger than that.

At least twice as much

3ventic

multiple 30k streams

badp

Thrice at height

FAE

@badp Ah, not sure about 30k streams

3ventic

21:24

because you know, you have to watch both channels to get all the goodies

FAE

@3ventic Give me a server and channel, I'll see if my irssi craps out.

badp

@FAE You actually need to log in with an auth key

3ventic

[username].twitch.tv #nipgamingtv

badp

he has to try for himself I'm afraid

FAE

@badp Oh :(

SaintWacko

21:25

I'll have to try out this irssi

3ventic

It's worth setting up though

SaintWacko

I use kvIRC right now

GnomeSlice

Quassel is my preferred IRC client by a stretch.

KiwiIRC is my favourite browser-based alternative.

3ventic

@GnomeSlice Looks good

GnomeSlice

@3ventic It's a skin, but yeah.

I've tried a bunch of different ones.

SaintWacko

21:27

I have issues with desktop IRC clients because of the proxy at work

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Try Kiwi

kiwiirc.com

SaintWacko

I had kvIRC working before, but something got corrupted and I had to reinstall, and now I can't get it working again

Yeah, just pulled up Kiwi

I was using the freenode webchat, but Kiwi looks nicer

FAE

@SaintWacko irssi is a terminal client

GnomeSlice

There's also irccloud.com but it's still in closed beta

badp

the connect string is /server irc.twitch.tv 6667 oauth:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx your_twitch_username

3ventic

21:29

I think I can run irssi on my VPS through putty

badp

unless it's one of those event things where there's a dedicated IRC server?

GnomeSlice

> Chat from anywhere and never miss a message. Stay connected even while you’re offline.

SaintWacko

@FAE Oh, I see

FAE

@3ventic Talking to another of my friends, she says that when she was watching AGDQ, irssi did fine, that was around 50k.

GnomeSlice

Quassel does this thing where you can make a core and then connect to the core through the client which I guess lets you see messages posted while you are offline.

But you need a server and shit I guess

FAE

21:29

@3ventic the join/parts will bog it down, but you can set irssi to ignore those

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice also it's going to cost

GnomeSlice

Also my hamburger helper last night turned out fine

@SaintWacko oh, ew

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice Yeah

GnomeSlice

Kiwi 4 lyfe

FAE

@3ventic Yes, that'll work fine. I use PuTTy Tray nowadays, but yeah.

SaintWacko

21:30

Is there any way to stop Kiwi from bugging me whenever someone talks?

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Bugging you? Oh you mean the tab thing?

SaintWacko

I just want it to tell me when someone mentions me

badp

@3ventic I suggest you connect through mosh if you do

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice It blinks "people are talking"

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Yeah, um... not sure actually.

I didn't think about that.

FAE

21:31

@3ventic irssi is great in linux/on a VM, windows is blegh

SaintWacko

Which is an issue, because the ##crawl room has bots which say when anything happens

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Try in Settings, but I don't think you're going to have much luck

I guess Kiwi is better for less active rooms

3ventic

I'm in!

badp

this is a screenshot after /ignore JOINS PARTS #nipgamingtv

FAE

@GnomeSlice Most IRC clients should be able to turn that off in notification settings, even mIRC could do that

GnomeSlice

21:32

@FAE It's a browser one though.

kiwiirc.com

FAE

@GnomeSlice Oh, ugh.

SaintWacko

@FAE Yeah

GnomeSlice

@FAE Yeah, I know, but as browser clients go it's pretty slick

badp

SaintWacko

Ugh, I wish I could get the proxy working again :(

3ventic

21:32

How do I stop the joins and leaves?

SaintWacko

This makes me sad

badp

/ignore JOINS PARTS #nipgamingtv

SaintWacko

I like kvIRC a lot

3ventic

didn't do it

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko kiwiirc.com/docs

Any of that helpful?

badp

21:33

@3ventic press Alt-1, what does it say?

3ventic

badp

(Alt-# switches between panes, Alt-A switches to the latest active pane)

GnomeSlice

Limechat is my favourite client for Mac, if there are mac users here.

badp

@3ventic you just wrote in /ignore JOINS PARTS

You must also specify the channel name

3ventic

@badp Nope, I included channel too

badp

21:34

oh

GnomeSlice

BabbleIRC seems nice too, but I have yet to try it.

badp

sorry

I gone done fucked up

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice I'm not sure, it seems to be talking about an installed version on Linux

badp

/ignore #nipgamingtv JOINS PARTS

FAE

@badp I'd add to this. /ignore #channel * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS

badp

21:34

@FAE Nicks and quits don't happen on twitch IRC

GnomeSlice

xChat is the one everybody knows

But it's not free any more unless you get a crack

3ventic

hexchat is better than xchat

FAE

@badp ah okay, I don't have a Twitch account

3ventic

because it's free

GnomeSlice

@3ventic pchat is pretty much exactly the same as xChat, but free.

@3ventic I didn't like hexchat, it was ugly

3ventic

21:35

Can I do it for all channels?

badp

You do get the occasional ServerMode messages when staff/ops/whatever join and part the channel though

GnomeSlice

ah fuck the pchat site is gone

badp

Not sure how you'd filter those

GnomeSlice

it's full of spam now

Q: In minecraft how do you command enchantments on to players

I'm developing a minigame server. I just need to know what commands to use, via command block, to give players special conditions infinitely such as; speed boost, regeneration, or jump boost.

minecraft minecraft-redstone

badp

21:36

3ventic

@badp these are fine

badp

maybe try /ignore #nipgamingtv JOINS PARTS MODES

also be careful on tab-completion of user names

(as in, don't do it)

finally here's a crash course on how irssi works

3ventic

badp

You have multiple numbered windows. Alt-number switches to that window. Alt-A switches to one of the inactive windows marked as "Act"ive. You can close query windows with \q.

FAE

@badp Alt-left/Alt-right will also go left or right.

badp

21:39

If you need special nonstandard IRC commands there's \quote (say, \quote auth username password on Quakenet)

3ventic

I think I'll still keep hexchat for my normal servers and use that for twitch..

GnomeSlice

@3ventic ugh, I hate it when the names and text aren't aligned differently

badp

You can also do multiple IRC servers per irssi instance, or split screens, but I don't and I would advise against it.

GnomeSlice

names should be aligned right, messages should be aligned left

3ventic

It would be nice if the messages were one above the other instead of depending on the username's length

badp

21:40

irssi will hang messages that don't fit in a line; that helps

GnomeSlice

names / messages should be aligned like that

FAE

@badp Would advise against multiple servers, split screens, or both?

badp

@FAE Both; every time I tried them I was really confused

it's better to use screen/tmux/byobu

GnomeSlice

sourceforge.net/projects/pchatirc

oh you can still get pchat

FAE

@badp I don't do split screens, but I connect to several servers at once.

badp

21:42

You can left-right align usernames with irssi themes

google image search for "irssi themes" gives this as the second hit

I wouldn't use that but...

FAE

15 channels, including twitter and bitlbee, across 6 servers in one screen session

GnomeSlice

babbelirc.com/index.lasso?go=features

oh cool that lets you ignore certain events

and stuff

so much software

I know the guy who runs the IGS irc serve uses MIRC because it has scripting and shit

seems complicated

user15026

I just use HexChat when I bother with IRC, which, for personal reasons, I rarely give any fucks over anymore.

GnomeSlice

@AshleyNunn You're almost always signed into the IGS channel, but you never speak.

You're signed in right now.

=[

3ventic

You should post it as an answer @badp :P

badp

21:47

@3ventic I just wanted to make sure it would work before I started writing the answer

3ventic

it does, thanks

Q: How to automatically update a Team Fortress 2 server with SteamCMD?

I have a Windows server running Team Fortress 2 (TF2) with SteamCMD and I would like to enable auto-updates. For the moment, I have to do it manually with SteamCMD using the app_update command but this is very bad as I must check daily if there are new updates. This is what I've tried : The -...

@AshleyNunn The what the what?

user15026

if that makes sense

GnomeSlice

I think I get what you mean

user15026

@GnomeSlice the former boy I was dating did a thing to essentially transcript channels for me when I wasn't there

user15026

for reasons that made sense especially in that dynamic

user15026

they no longer make such sense

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Which IRC servers do you use when you're at work?

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice ##crawl is on freenode

GnomeSlice

@Frank I'm gonna play my demon hunter a bit more, if you want to join, start up a game and I'll jump in.

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice Is that one better than kiwi?

@Arperum That's what I'm going to do when I get home

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Well, no, but it doesn't look like it does the annoying tab thing

SaintWacko

21:57

Just about to leave work

@GnomeSlice Oh

GnomeSlice

It seems pretty nice, just not as slick as Kiwi

Arperum

@SaintWacko What level are you?

SaintWacko

GnomeSlice

Weird... see if it works for you
