Q: Minecraft - Trees not growing. All requirements met

I can't figure out why these trees aren't growing. They have been planted for a VERY long time. There is sufficient light. They have enough space around and above them. I've dumped a whole stack of bonemeal and they still don't grow. Any ideas?

Q: Far Cry 3 Online Multiplayer Never Finds Other Players

I bought Far Cry 3, off Steam, when it came out with the intention of playing online with my friends. At the time my computer was running Windows 8, and I was only ever able to get a single game to play online before it stopped working. Assuming it was related to the game not officially supportin...

Q: How to disable minimap rotation in GTAV?

I want to disable the rotation of the minimap in the GTAV, so the north is always at the top. There seems to be no such option, but is there any mod or may be some config file option?

oh god why what is this I don't even

@3ventic that is not true, only a specific version of crack does that

it does happen to be the most downloaded one however

How many versions are there then?

@3ventic at least 2

Today is my birthday. I am now discretely even older than I was before.

Chippies

@WorldEngineer Happy getting older day!

then again, you get older EVERY day, so eh

user20683

@Chippies Hence the "discretely"

user20683

user20683

We are locally continuously older all the time. But we are also the same age depending on where our age is observed

Ktash

@WorldEngineer Well, if age is a measurement of time from our birth, then we are always older because time would adjust on both sides, not just on one side of the measurement

Though, "time of birth" is a bit of a hard to pin thing anyway ;)

@Ktash No, I mean physical location in space time

If I were standing on Alpha Centauri, I'd be 4+ years out of date in terms of observed age

GnomeSlice

@agent86 wtf is this

user20683

but then you've got to factor in expansion and rotation

Ktash

@WorldEngineer True. But observation at what moment is also a factor. And does that mean we are always true age + observation time?

user20683

21:18

@Ktash It means that age is b******* :P

@GnomeSlice I don't knooooow. I was installing a doctor who game and it was a suggestion. I couldn't figure out WTF was going on and I still can't. no freakin' way am I installing that game

I dare whoever asked that doge question to install that game and ask a question about it.

I promise to threaten to delete my account and then not do it. that's a promise you can believe in

I don't even think I could, actually. that would be interesting to find out, but not worth the hassle.

besides, if I deleted my account, then the terrorists win.

all of this is tangential to the point though, which is this: a game about the nose of the little mermaid exists, and it is terrifying.

Q: Is there a ROM for Monster Hunter 3 Tri?

Is there a trusted emulator for ROM for Monster Hunter 3 Tri for Dolphin? There isn't one on COOLROMS, and I don't know any other trusted site to get roms from.

@FEichinger I don't know. I don't keep track. THATS NOT MY JOB.

Frank

this is probably off topic as we don't generally do software recommendations around here (and a ROM is a software). I'd suggest looking at emuparadise, though. It requires registration(free), but here is the link to the Monster hunter ISO I got from them, (which works fine) epforums.org/showthread.php?81850 — Rapitor 9 mins ago

Should we honestly be allowing this?

you know you want to play it. I bet you installed it already.

you probably have the little mermaid on repeat, and you pause at the moments when you can see up her cute little nose

wondering "what would it be like to stick something up there?"

Q: Should questions only a few days from official release be closed for "unreleased content"?

I have asked a question about Watch Dogs today, although the official release date is in two days (27.05.2014). There are, at the moment, four closing votes. I already got the game because my pre-order has been sent out early. Given that I frequently got invaded and invaded myself playing online,...

badp

@Frank I was not aware

Frank

@badp Yeah, it's been available for quite some time.

Most of the questions I close get closed immediately :P

You wouldn't know, because of your mod hammer.

Q: How to disable potion effects such as the slowness FOV

When I'm playing minecraft and things like nausea randomly happen on servers i play on. My game does not respond to this well. Is there a way to disable this? I looked at Mojang's help page and got no help from it. Thanks.

Q: Enable stereoscopic 3D

When I play Pokémon Y, I've noticed that the game disables stereoscopic 3D when not in combat; i.e. the green 3D LED is off and moving the 3D slider doesn't do anything. Looking at the settings, I can see options to set the text speed (slow, normal, fast), but I can't find anything related to st...

So we do have precedent for leaving questions open, as long as it looks like it was asked in good faith.

@Ktash It's quite good for what it is

user20683

I liked Battletech and Exosquad as well

Ktash

22:58

Yeah, I remember liking it alright

But the current ones it is recommending are: Rugrats, Doug, Hey Arnold, Wild Thornberries, Catdog, Tale Spin, etc., etc., etc.

user15026

@Ktash daaaang, what a list

Ktash

@AshleyNunn I know. It is really tough not to get it all

@Ktash You can skip Catdog.

@Fluttershy I like CatDog. Not my favorite, but it's alright

From what I can tell, it's unanimously a single party.

user20683

anyone know off the top of their heads why N64 speedrunners tend to use Japanese releases?

badp

23:28

@WorldEngineer Shorter dialogue?

I think

Ktash

@WorldEngineer Depends

usually shorter dialog

sometimes different glitches

especially if it was released first

Chippies

@Yuki only one version of the crack does that, there is at least one version of the game on torrents that has no virus and works fine

badp

Also yeah, that. Jap releases tended to happen before US/EU ones, and thus had more bugs

Ktash

Now I'm split. Do I watch Lizzie McGuire, or Phil of the Future...

badp

Why would you ever watch Lizzie McGuire?

Ktash

23:30

@badp Because it is good. Also because Hillary Duff. But mostly because good

Frank

@Ktash Neither. You watch Chuck.

badp

okay, now that I look at both, they both look crappy

Ktash

@Frank I think I've seen the whole series a round dozen times, so I don't disagree. But something else can help make it a bit more fresh on the next go around

user15026

@Frank I wish I could forget watching Chuck so I could enjoy it all over again

Frank

@AshleyNunn Yeah, you really liked it when I introduced it to you in the first place.

Ktash

23:32

@badp You take that back! :P

Frank

@Ktash That's a ton more than me, and it's my favorite show.

user15026

@Frank yeah, I left you SO many steam messages :P

Ktash

@Frank Far and above my favorite show as well.

badp

@Ktash Don't you have like eleventy seasons of Animaniacs/Timon and Pumbaa/Ducktales/Freakazoid or something you could watch instead?

Frank

But anyways, I'm gonna go grab some awesome breakfast at the local Denny's.

Ktash

23:33

@badp I have Ducktales and Freakazoid, and some of Pinky and the Brain, but no Timon and Pumbaa or Animaniacs (sadly)

badp

Oh, obviously also Pinky and The Brain

Too bad they never made a sequel™

Frank

There's also Stargate. I really wish we could get another series of that.

Ktash

Hmm, except I don't know where my Pinky and the Brain is

Wait, breakfast?

I have Prometheus and Bob though

Breakfast food is best food

FEichinger

Oh, fun. Looks like the Party actually got a seat.

By breakfast food you mean a bowl of lukewarm milk and perhaps a drop of coffee and some cereals if you want to be superfancy?

@Frank I actually liked Universe.

@FEichinger Go figure what country has the massive landslide for the pro-Europe party?

Frank

23:37

@Yuki So did I.

Frank

@badp I mean breakfast food as in eggs and hashbrowns and bacon and sausage and pancakes.

badp

Good job Germany.

FEichinger

@badp The pirates finally got some of the liberal vote with their multi-language campaign here.

badp

@FEichinger Is that the only seat they got europewide?

Yuki

23:38

@Frank I really hope they pick it back up.

Unfortunately, I think that's really unlikely.

FEichinger

@badp Not quite sure, I'd have to check if they got anything Scandinavian.

badp

@FEichinger results-elections2014.eu is full of weird abbreviations for those countries

FEichinger

@badp Well, it's explained in the diagram captions, but it looks like Germany is indeed the only country where the pirates got a seat.

And, supposedly, once the final results are in, so will die PARTEI. Which would be great, just to see the reactions.
