I'm liking Last Week Tonight more and more.
It's been eight hours now or so but today's match still hurts
To boot, I grew up with Buffon and he won't be playing for Italy ever again.
also it's been raining like fuck every single night
Finally, Amazon emailed me saying that the one and only item in the wish list is still too expensive and I should buy it anyway
@Lazers Is it just me or does this more so belong on SciFi & Fantasy? I am not against storyline speculation, but.. well yeah it seems like speculation based on the storyline since clearly these questions are not answered in the game.
00:18
Luckily today wasn't all doom and gloom
Today was enriched with bamboo. I'm grateful for that
What's the last time you accepted bamboo in your life?
...only to set the bamboo on fire afterwards
...while a panda is watching
user15026
I can't believe how much of that I just watched.
@AshleyNunn not enough
I've watched it again. I feel born anew, and/or cleared of my burdens
Truly those are the same thing as discussed in the video
00:35
@badp What a great name.
Back to KSP
I designed a big science lander
And I have a ring of satellites in near geostat orbit
So, I'm at a bookstore. The people next to me just left and left a bunch of books lying around.
Some open, face-down.
Why would you do that?
At least have the courtesy to stack them closed...
..mwehehehehehehehe
@GraceNote o_o
Hello all. Here's a link to Lindsey Stirling playing a cover of My Immortal by Evanescence: youtube.com/watch?v=-onQcF95pfs&list=PL7901C8C232406C99
That's all. Bye
00:46
God, I've heard that song so many times...
Which, the cover or the original?
@RPiAwesomeness The original.
The cover's nice :)
FAE
FAE
@Yuuki Which version of it? They had the one with the harder sound that got popular for airplay.
I've heard it on the radio a lot, my mom kinda liked it so she played it a couple times in the car, my sister went through one of those phases last year...
00:48
oo..nice...not
It's annoying how much music gets pushed on me.
I rarely spend time to look for music I like myself anymore because my family (namely, my sister) keeps pushing music on me.
FAE
FAE
...
so I'm having problems running Nidhogg
My sister's currently really into K-pop so those songs are basically on constant loop throughout the day.
FAE
FAE
crashes immediately on startup
And it's the same 5 or 6 songs too.
FAE
FAE
00:51
so I went to the install folder to see if there's anything like an .ini file I could futz with, if there were settings to mess with
@FAE Yeah, I had that problem with Metro: Last Light. I can relates.
FAE
FAE
And I found a file called match.txt and the only thing it says in it is matchmaker matchmaker make me a match
@FAE ... someone likes Fiddler on the Roof?
Hmmmmmmm...
FAE
FAE
@Yuuki I... I don't know.
00:54
I guess we'll go the easy route
@GraceNote :( puts down massive hammer
ooh, found a foil
FAE
FAE
In case anyone was wondering, playing Nidhogg from Missouri to the Netherlands is not really doable.
And @BenBrocka and I couldn't really play Resogun too easily either.
Maybe the Midwest just hates me.
So I'm 3 cards away from the badge.
@FAE Or maybe you just hate the Midwest!
FAE
FAE
@agent86 summer?
@FAE nah, kingdom rush.
FAE
FAE
01:09
@Yuuki But I dooon't! T_T
@Yuuki if you need #6 and have a dupe to trade, I can hook you up.
@agent86 Ah, I'll have to check my marketplace then. I think I put all my dupes up for sale.
@FAE I can vouch for this!
@agent86 Okay, I currently have dupes of #9 and #4.
Do you have a preference?
@Yuuki #4
01:12
I traded all of my cards for $0.20 - $0.55 a piece.
I still have summer sale cards from last year
Aaand trade offer sent.
@Yuuki aaaand accepted
@Fluttershy traded sold
@Yuuki hmm, you might need to open your inventory to public, the accept failed :/ although sometimes steam has been saying "failed" when it meant "lolz, success" so maybe it went though?
> There was an error accepting this trade offer. Please try again later.
You cannot trade with Yuuki
01:15
@agent86 I 'unno. I have inventory set to public though.
Sent you a friend request. Maybe we can try through that?
successssss
Okay, that worked.
And now I'm 8/10.
Just need #3 and #7.
I used reddit to trade my dupes away for my first badge.
I'm still a few cards shy of my second at this point
I... I haven't participated at all...
FAE
FAE
I just sell all mine.
Got a foil summer card drop that was pretty much worth more than a game.
FAE
FAE
01:39
G'night all.
I started doing the summer thing like 2 days ago and my wallet has gone up like 20 cents and I'm up a few badges
not bad
@BenBrocka ... what game is this?
@BenBrocka So inefficient!
@BenBrocka WTF
01:51
@Fluttershy apparently postal 2
@BenBrocka I've never played postal, but my first guess was postal
it does seem to fit their theme
@GnomeSlice If it's F2P, you have to spend money on it to get card drops.
@Fluttershy That's what I thought, but I got all mine just by playing
Weird.
It wasn't f2p to begin with.
02:30
Awesomenauts is really good.
@StrixVaria It's pretty fun. A neat take on a traditional moba, I think.
I'm awful at it, but if you ever wanna play (except for tonight), let me know!
Yeah, we'll have to do that.
I was terrible at that game.
I have found one character I'm pretty good as.
I've tried 4-5 and been pretty bad as the others.
@StrixVaria Is it Clank?
Or whatever his name is?
02:33
@Fluttershy Is he just a good noob character?
@StrixVaria I don't really know. <_< But I like him.
Yeah it was him.
Clunk
He was the only one I was good with too
lol
I played a few practice games with bots to try out some characters, then one with real people where I played as that guy and my teammate was the one whose primary attack is a heal.
So I could just spam self-destruct forever.
We won very quickly.
Yeah Self Destruct is op
02:38
Ugh I've spent $45.00 so far on the Steam sale.
I don't know how it came out so even, actually.
user15026
I spent $15 planned and $20ish unplanned.
Unplanned?
user15026
(aka I bought @WorldEngineer a gift copy of Shadowrun last time it was on sale, had it in my inventory, then a couple months later went "what is this" and added it to my library, so I had to buy it again, and then it went on sale :P)
user15026
@StrixVaria Random crap that I kinda wanted but wasn't sure about but hey it was cheap
user15026
Good things: Castle Crashers, Battleblock Theatre
02:40
@AshleyNunn That's almost everything for me.
user15026
Bad things: Prison Architect. That game sucks and is hard and explains nothing and I hate it.
Prison Architect is like Dwarf Fortress Lite.
I bought Walking Dead Season 2 and The Wolf Among Us.
user15026
@StrixVaria Which really explains why I hate it like a lot
@AshleyNunn Yeah, not my kind of game either. I don't know why I bought it.
I've had it for a while, though.
user15026
And I should have done more research. I wanted it to be like RCT but prisons
user15026
02:54
I miss good tycoon games, like Theme Hospital and RCT and the like.
@StrixVaria wolf among us is thumbs up +1
@AshleyNunn a lot of these games assume you will open a wiki and have it in the background as you play
user15026
@agent86 Gross.
user15026
No.
with it being alpha, too, it's a hot mess of bugs and unfinished content as well.
user15026
I just....it doesnt' tell you how to do ANYTHING
user15026
02:56
it is just liek "DO STUFF"
yeah, preeeeety much
user15026
I like structure
user15026
I hate that
yeah, a lot of games are going that route now. minecraft kind of started the trend of that being mainstream, imho
it was kind of surprising that factorio didn't, tbqh
user15026
@agent86 It is the worst trend ever and it is why I am starting to hate a bunch of PC gaming
02:57
@AshleyNunn :(
user15026
But hey, sometimes I get surprised
user15026
Like I didn't think Battleblock Theater would be so AWESOME
user15026
but it IS
user15026
and that is WONDERFUL

Q: When exactly did everyone figure out about Lucy?

Kevin MillsSo I've been playing through the Assassins Creed series recently, all for the first time. I managed to figure out that Lucy was a templar, because of what Juno says when she forces Desmond to stab her (plus, it was also a lucky guess). However, as far as I can remember, the characters never figu...

03:58
And more overtime.
@Krazer Okay, that's cool.
user15026
04:15
@ktash that's going to be stuck in my head forever
@AshleyNunn your welcome :)
user15026
It doesn't help I am wide awake. I think I broke my sleep schedule.
@AshleyNunn perhaps you would be interested in playing... a game
04:33
@Krazer how about a nice game of chess?
@Ktash I would actually prefer a nice old fashioned game of thermonuclear warfare, if you don't mind.
@Krazer are you sure, professor?
@Ktash On second thought, do you fancy a game of game of twisted logic?

Q: The future of Dwarf Fortress. Are there any plans to open the code base?

MikroDelThe Dwarf Fortress is a closed code project. As I know there are two brothers who works on this game, but only one programm it. What will happen if the only developer (or both brothers) will not or can not work on it anymore? Are there any planes to open the code base in this case?

Q: Is there a benefit to more villagers when Norende is complete?

Memor-XIn Bravery Default, one way you can restore Norende is by connecting online and getting villagers to help speed up build/upgrade/clearing times, at the same time you can also get new players to summon in battle (however this is limited to 20 unprotected players but your villager count will go up ...

Morning @Kevin
07:55
Morning
@Arperum why did you link battle beast in the chat yesterday? Now I have to disappear into a youtube hole again...
@KevinvanderVelden Good, They are worth it. Their show at skullfest was really good. A friend of mine got the only thrown plectrum.
The other friend that was with us caught 5 things... It was ridiculous.
They just really liked him
08:02
@KevinvanderVelden It may have helped that we were basically 80% of the festival in the middle of the first line :p
Also, in Origin news:
NOTHING HAPPENS
@KevinvanderVelden The only news about Origin I would be interested reading would be if they cancel it.
@5pike naah, competition is good
They just have to fix it and try to be competitive
@KevinvanderVelden Hahahaha ... good one.
Jeah, I didn't say it was gonna happen
08:06
I know that competition is good, but if the competition is laughably stupid, then no.
Can I activate GOG games on steam?
Eeeh unlikely
I don't know any where you can
Damn. Because Hammerwatch is currently pretty cheap on GOG.
What a shame...
Or get it on GOG
Yeah, but ... Steam stuff...
Screw it, I'm buying.
08:56
@5pike never
@badp I KNOW, I know
Alas, it's already to late
Is there truth to this?

Q: NBA 2K14 - Optimal PC Controls

starkWhat are the best controller settings that you've played NBA 2K14 on a PC with ?

@Blem to the googlez!
@Blem Apparently, yes
Erik Wolpaw is an American video game writer. Wolpaw and Chet Faliszek were the two writers behind the now-defunct Old Man Murray video game commentary web site. As of March 2013, he works for Valve Corporation in Bellevue, Washington. The Old Man Murray web site had a huge influence on gaming writing and gaming journalism and has been referenced in many computer games. As a high-school student Wolpaw wrote two type-in program games for the Atari 8-bit family that Antic published in 1983 and 1984. He wrote dialogue for the video game Portal and wrote Portal 2 with Chet Faliszek and Jay Pi...
09:07
@Blem Hi, my name is Erik, and I'm a Get Better at Valve.
@Lazers I feel that this is primarily opinion based.
How long would such a question last on SO you'd think?
@KevinvanderVelden a few seconds?

Q: Which items should I buy (or not) in Arena?

NiteCyperI understand that Magi's Blessing is a staple for any competitive build, as well as Tabi for physical characters or Shoes for magical characters, at least according to the screenshots that I took from the Alienware Arena Cup (which took place Apr 19, 2014, which is important because the developer...

10:02
@badp Is this surprising [ ] YES [ ] NO
@badp Buzzfeed is pretty much the same as scientology
@fredley that's not a fair statement
@badp Same idea though: harvest darkest inner secrets
Scientology is a bloody science fiction turned cult that's ruining families and lives.
@badp I'm not trying to say Scientology is in any way a trivial thing.
Buzzfeed is trying to squeeze every single nickel it can out of ads you could be easily blocking anyway
Scientology is basically 1 megahitler
10:06
Our offices are close to the Scientology London HQ.
I give it evil eyes every day
Buzzfeed is about 2,000 milliHitlers
@fredley organize a fun "Bring RPGs to work" day
assuming you're in LoS
@badp LoS?
@badp I don't think they're that hot on D&D
@fredley line of sight
@fredley Everyone's hot for Death 'n' Destruction.
yeeeeeeeeey
@badp No :(
@fredley D:
10:12
@badp I won't even get that for at home right now, they are breaking up stuff for electricity.
when I launch a steam game directly I get the Steam overlay though
and then it loads the ad, and then it tells me it can't connect
wat
@fredley Oh I see it now
10:16
@badp Wat is this
> I'm hungry
@KevinvanderVelden lol. There are papers posters in our university detailing how to programmatically shoulder-surf passwords typed on an iPhone keyboard with a scrappy camera.
A personal pin number is like child's play in comparison.
Yup, but it's still easier to see "Hey that asshole is recording me with his phone" then "Hey that asshole is wearing glass, what an asshole types pincode"
sigh. Glass, unlike actual spy cameras embedded in things as large as a pen, shows an "I'm recording" dot
It's also got a battery life that could only support recording for about half an hour or so, unlike actual spy cameras that are things that exist and are sold.
@badp I bet that can be disabled via root, or something...
10:19
In short, if you want to record your life, you could do way better than with a head-mounted gizmo
Also:
> As it turns out, there is no such indicator light on the "Explorer" version of Google Glass that has recently shipped to the first generation of users and developers who were lucky enough to get their hands on the headset. Duh.
@badp and those shouldn't be allowed either
@KevinvanderVelden I'm just saying, if you're looking at Glass from the "AH MAH GAD ITS RECORDING MEEEEE" perspective, you're being quite silly.
Popularly so, perhaps, but still silly.
@badp 2.5 stars, achievement not unlocked.
10:23
@fredley Well I am comparing a €14 device to a $1,500 device.
@badp I'm looking at glass from the "I would prefer people not to record me without my knowledge, let's try to prevent things like google glass (and spy pens) from becoming common everywhere"
If you were so willing to spend $1,500 in digital surveillance, you could buy much better.
And also from the "Let's not keep monitors in our face all the time and actually interact with people when you're interacting with people"
@KevinvanderVelden People keep monitors in their face all the time, it's called "holding a mobile phone in your hands"
You have to tilt your neck back to activate Glass and stare right up. It takes actively effort to do so.
10:25
You're never going to get more than that in a pen due to fundamental battery limitations
@badp I'm not specifying google glass in that, I'm against both
@badp root
@fredley battery
@badp root
@fredley you can get more batterylife out of a pen in a pocket (where you can hide moar battery) than something on your head though
10:26
@KevinvanderVelden The moar battery could be suspish though
@KevinvanderVelden Well you might need to take the pen out in a hunch
Although if you were highly motivated it wouldn't be too hard
that said, that's still not a problem: contactless recharging is already a thing that exists
@fredley Not really, a cellphone battery is really thin
I might not want to use that in the neighborhood of my heart though...
10:27
@badp EM radiation of that type does not penetrate any more than a few layers of skincells
And even if it did it wouldn't do anything
oh good. So that other objection is also out.
I suppose it might look suspicious if the pen snaps out of your jacket though. Maybe a remote on-off switch in your pocket?
Meh, I suspect it'd be pretty easy to get a fancy metallic pen where the bottom is (electrically) seperated from the top and each is attached to a different electric pole for the battery
@badp There are tons more mini cam spy gadgets. I've seen one in zippo lighters, bic lighters, sunglasses, car keys, watches ...
Fancy....even in a tie

Q: Athletic PG - Play Style

starkWhat could be the best play style as well as shot style for an athletic left handed point guard (6'4 195 pnds) in NBA 2K14 in order to increase his overall rating the fastest ?

10:40
@fredley Make a small hole inside your pocket. Run a cable from there to your back. Strap lots of batteries behind your lower back. Problem solved.
Hell, you could even stuff the batteries up your arse if you really wanted to (kids, don't do that at home).
@MartinSojka well that went weird places very quickly. Well done @MartinSojka!
@Wipqozn I don't understand the problem. Any turtles movie is destined to look ridiculous
@KevinvanderVelden I didn't play and GM ShadowRun for years without learning a thing or two.
Oh, look, AOW 3 is 50% off
I should wait one more sale until it's 75% off
10:48
@Sterno If you buy it now you can start not playing it faster though!
You make an excellent point.
Well, that purchase was totally worth it, since now I have two more Steam cards that sold for $.40!
Gotta spend money to make money!
In other news, I'm recording all of you RIGHT NOW
@Sterno Someone else does that already.
Besides, who the hell wants your phone's PIN code?
A personal PIN number can be important information.
2
Don't use the same PIN for everything.
11:00
@badp get out
4
@Sterno Someone who wants to steal your phone later and get access to the apps that control your car and house locks for reasons I still don't understand.
And anyone who is actually malicious enough to be hacking you, specifically, such that they get right up next to you, is not going to be using Google glass to do it.
@badp I use a personally identifying PIN number for each device
@Sterno But what if they want to be malicious and trendy? WHAT THEN?
It's too early in the morning for me, someone go to my fingerprinting appointment in my place so I can go back to bed. In my current state I see no flaws with that plan.
Well you're all dumb, you should use a product identifying PIN number, i.e. one that's different for each device
11:02
I use 1234
BUT HOW WILL THE PRODUCT PERSONALLY IDENTIFY ME WITHOUT A PERSONALLY IDENTIFYING PIN NUMBER
I like to make people who record me typing it in feel stupid for bothering to record me

IndrekWhen playing Race Driver: Grid, I've noticed that it can be very hard to completely shake the AI cars, they always seem to be able to catch up somehow. Now I'm far from the greatest driver, so at first I thought this was due to lack of skill on my part, but then I also noticed this happening on l...

@5pike yeah sure but I don't have a driving licence (Costs about 5-7k CHF here) and currently I'm at work + most of the stores that still have it only have 1 left... Credit card is easier I guess and after work I can still go
@Jutschge 5 K ... Holy shit man.
yep.. I'm austrian as a second nationality so maybe I can do it there but It's kind of complicated since switzerland voted yes to this "Einwanderungsinitiative" (Dunno what it's called in english it just makes everything more complicated when it comes to international stuff)
@Jutschge It would be a lot cheaper in Austria. I paid ~900€ for my license
11:30
oh, I read it wrong, that is pretty expensive
@5pike :< DO WANT
@5pike for the licence or for lessons?
That's always what I find weird, people in america saying they payed 100 bucks for their licence
@KevinvanderVelden License + Lesson + Test fee
How did you learn how to drive? Is everyone just doing whatever the fuck they want?
And then I looked up the death rates per capita/per 1000 cars and yeah they're pretty much just doing whatever the fuck they want
@KevinvanderVelden Don't forget that they can drive pretty much everything, as long as it has lights and seatbelt (I think).
11:32
in dk it is about 1k-1½k CHF
@5pike yeah also that
In the US you don't have to take any practical lessons, do I understand that correctly?
I learned to drive from my parents (so basically all the time I had my temporary license one of my parents had to sit aside of me) I don't think my license costed more then 100 euros.
@KevinvanderVelden How's the youtube hole doing? Do I need to post some more music?
yesss I finally found a bundle
@Arperum That's cool. My father basically taught me how to drive. I still had to take the driving lessons.
11:39
@5pike I didn't only if I failed the exam twice I would've been required to take lessons.
@Arperum My lessons were mandatory. There was an option to drive only with your parents (you had to drive ~1000KM, I think), but that cost as much as the normal license.
I think something like 12 lessons are required in Germany, and typically you take 20-25 before trying the exam.
FAE

Good afternoon, all.
Hey @FAE

I'm getting a manicure for the first time in my life today and I'm nervous. x_X My friend is doing a beauty salon course thing and she needs someone to use as a guinea pig.

@wipqozn In the image I'm about to upload, this was @gnomeslice's first mission.

@KevinvanderVelden She could mess up and slice into my cuticles and make me bleed all over.
@Arperum "The Unicorn Invasion of Dundee"
@FAE well that'd be bad, tell her not to do that
@Sterno That looks good. Is that good?
11:55
@Arperum should I just switch back to the pony avatar or?
@5pike apparently @GnomeSlice is a badass
@5pike It wasn't terrible. I was showing him because there seems to be some special case where stats go up more than just +1 per mission (+2 for TUs)
FAE
FAE
@KevinvanderVelden Yeeeeah, hopefully that won't happen. She's also painting my nails and I haven't had that done in like 10+ years. I guess it's maybe a good idea, as I'm going to a wedding in a couple weeks, but I also just started playing my bass guitar again, so it's sort of inconvenient timing.
@FAE wear gloves while playing guitar, what could go wrong :D
@KevinvanderVelden Actually, @FAE and @Wipqozn are my best soldiers, but @FAE is in the infirmary for like 20 days after taking heavy weapons fire last mission.

Really, 20 days isn't so bad considering how horribly mangled you were.
