12:21 AM
This journalist made a column that's a glorified Saved You A Click twitter account. You won't believe what appeared right after his caustic piece about shitty headlines!
Actually you'll guess it right the first time.
But that's just everything being just as shamelessly terrible as it's wont (to?)

Q: What classes are proficient at solo'ing?

lumbricus lubricantWhere I play, and when I play, there seems to not be a lot of people on, so for most missions and jobs, I tend to have to play solo. Currently I've been playing as an Accord Engineer, just starting learning the game after being on hiatus for 2 years. Originally I had set my goal to building towa...

 
 
@FAE I wouldn't bother so much over it, unless it's A LOT different gauge
I don't have a bass guitar, but I do have 2 electric guitars and I change my string gauge all the time
depending on my mood at the moment of purchase, I can buy anything between 010 and 014 gauge strings, which is a HUGE difference
you can adjust intonation yourself, if the gauge affects it
 
FAE
12:37 AM
@Chippies I'm just like... not very good at that because I'm very much a beginner and taking it somewhere to get adjusted again would cost extra money and I'm all like ad;jf;asdjf
 
@FAE is it an expensive bass guitar?
 
FAE
@Chippies No, it's an entry level bass, squier jazz affinity
 
you have to start somewhere, so I would suggest you look up information on how to adjust the stuff yourself
 
FAE
But I can't afford to replace it right now if I screw things up
 
it's very unlikely you would screw it beyond repair
 
12:39 AM
So I totally saw a minivan with a lift kit installed on my way downtown
 
changing intonation is super easy
 
FAE
@Chippies When I first got it, I tried adjusting the action and intonation myself but it just wasn't working and I ended up taking into a store to get the intonation and action and truss rod and everything looked at
Admittedly it was also purchased secondhand
 
how much of a difference in the string gauge?
if it's not a lot, it's unlikely that you'd even need to adjust it
and even if you did need to adjust it, it would be very tiny adjustments
not to mention - all that stuff changes with time, temperature and humidity
 
FAE
@Chippies It's currently .045, .065, .80, .100 and I have a pack of .050, .070, .85, .105.
 
that does seem like a big step (I assume, don't know that much about bass guitars)
you could tune it to a lower tuning
that way it wouldn't affect the intonation and stuff as much, if at all
 
FAE
12:44 AM
Right now I'm mostly just feeling like "I AM NOT QUALIFIED FOR THIS I SHOULD JUST GIVE UP T_T"
 
meh, eventually you'll have to get over that
and without trying, you'll never be "qualified for it"
when I bought my first second-hand guitar, I didn't even know you had to press the string against the fretboard to play notes
 
So, I found a hockey stick signed by some 80's Calgary Flames players.
 
that's how much of a noob I was
 
So that's neat
 
but internet is full of information
if you don't touch the truss rod, you can't even break anything
 
FAE
12:46 AM
@Chippies My problem is that there's so much and a lot of it is conflicting sometimes and I don't have enough expertise to know how to sift out the valid stuff
I just get overwhelmed :(
 
@FAE well, you could start by putting the new strings on and see if there is any problem whatsoever
 
FAE
@Chippies My other barrier there is I want to give it a good cleaning but I'm coming across conflicting information about that too, like what to use on the fretboard and such
and I want to do that before I put the new strings on
Basically, I'm a big ball of anxiety right now
 
I would just use a tissue or a cloth with perhaps a bit of saliva and rub all the gunk off
I'm not sure if the wood type makes a difference for cleaning...
personally, I would avoid using oils until you've done more research
 
FAE
Yeah, I was looking on music.stackexchange
and some recommended oils
others recommended lighter fluid?!
 
lighter fluid sounds.... not cool
but Idk
oils don't really clean, I don't think
you jsut apply them after cleaning to keep the wood nice
personally, I wouldn't bother with that so much with an entry level guitar
I have never used any oils on my guitar and it's doing just fine :P
 
12:52 AM
@Chippies Same!
 
the important part is just rubbing the finger gunk off with a cloth
everything else is just being fancy
 
FAE
@Chippies See, like that's the stuff I don't know. When I read all this stuff on the internet about using oils or buying cleaning kits, I don't really know that it's not that necessary
 
I can't believe the city is still going to do the fireworks tonight. I feel many raindrops on my head
 
@FAE all of that is useful if you have a really expensive guitar that you want to keep in mint condition for decades
to adjust intonation, you need to use a tuner, especially as a beginner
 
FAE
12:57 AM
@Chippies Oh huh. I don't have an app at all for tuning, just the tuner that came with the guitar.
 
@FAE that's probably good enough
I've never had a physical tuner, but the cheap ones usually don't seem very precise
 
My tuner. :3
 
FAE
@Chippies This is what I have, though I bought it secondhand.
 
but I don't have much experience with physical tuners
@FAE the tuner seems super basic
fine for standard tuning, but I'm not sure how useful it would be for adjusting intonation
 
1:00 AM
@Powerlord I get sucked into this channel's Top 10 videos way more than I care to admit.
 
@Fluttershy ...same here
 
FAE
@Chippies Ah, I see :(
 
@FAE it might be just fine
 
@Chippies Would APTuner work for intonation?
 
@Fluttershy yeah, it's a chromatic tuner, works at any octave
I've used it since I bought my first guitar
for a bass I would suggest plugging it into the mic/line-in port for it though
I'd imagine mic wouldn't work too well with the low frequencies of a bass guitar
 
FAE
1:24 AM
I need to try to sleep, thanks for the advice, @Chippies
 
@FAE you're welcome. If you have any questions, I can try answering them.
 
FAE
Thanks. :) Night!
 
G'night!

Q: How do music-based events work for online play?

ToomaiEvery player hits the final lap at a different time. As a result, music-based events may occur at different times on different players' systems.

Q: Does your MMR fall if you dodge a Queue?

zETOI believe the question is pretty straight forward. Your MMR is calculated by your wins/ loses and what ranked you were at the previous season I believe. My question is, does your MMR fall if you dodge a queue for whatever reason when you lose those 3 or 10 LP after you've left?

@fredley So now I don't have any code to lose, what am I supposed to do to edit incraftmental?
 
@RonanForman Make commits, and submit pull requests
I've already merged your options menu
 
@SaintWacko Alright. I don't know what I'm supposed to do about it, though.
 
@fredley I noticed.
But do I make edits on my fork? If so how do I update it with all the changes made so far?
 
@SaintWacko How many villagers do you already have?
@RonanForman Yes
You edit on your fork
and you pull my updates into your fork to stay up to date
basically just git fetch upstream; git merge upstream/master
 
12:14 PM
> This branch is 0 commits ahead and 0 commits behind master
Well that's not true, you're 7 commits behind. Stupid thing.
 
@RonanForman how odd
try git pull
 
Pull what?
 
just git pull
 
Already up to date.
 
and git fetch upstream says 0 commits behind?
 
12:16 PM
No, that just doesn't do anything, doesn't even print anything.
It says 0 commits behind on the website.
 
@RonanForman weird
 
Try this line: git remote add upstream github.com/fredley/incraftmental.git
Then try again
git remote add upstream https://github.com/fredley/incraftmental.git
 
Still nothing.

Q: update fork on GitHub for Windows?

TakaGotoI am currently using the Windows Github GUI and its pretty cool looking and easy so I'm trying to use it as often. A problem I encountered is when I fork a project I don't know how to update that fork with the git

That's 2 years old though
 
12:20 PM
Well that did something at least.
 
Watch TotalBiscuit Plays Crypt of the NecroDancer (really badly) (with a dancepad!)
 
There we go, although it thinks all the commits were made right now.
 
@RonanForman Timeline should remain consistent
 
@fredley It's in the right order, but says 'just now' on all of them.
 
@RonanForman Yeah, this is beyond my git knowledge
Did you break saving with your commit btw?
 
12:25 PM
@fredley I shouldn't of, although it's entirely possible.
 
@RonanForman Hmm, no default value set, so it defaults to not saving :)
@RonanForman I'll fix
 
@fredley I set default 1...
 
Yer British, shound't y'all be better at a software named git
 
@RonanForman hmmmmm
 
@fredley Yeah, it comes up with 1 for me.
Hmmm, I can't give my villager a stone pickaxe, did I break that as well?
 
12:28 PM
@RonanForman I probably broke that
Villagers need to be disabled to be given a tool
It's so that you can assign them to craft a tool without changing their purpose
Or maybe they should be one-time assignable. Not sure yet.
Current situation sub-optimal
@RonanForman You may need to nuke villagers from your save, or manually disable un-assigned ones from the console
 
I managed to give pickaxes to my builder, it is now unassigned and I didn't get the axes back.
@fredley Why?
 
@RonanForman So villagers are assigned a tool and an item to work with
So you gave it a pickaxe and now it's a smith
 
@fredley None
 
but it needs to know what to smith
give it some iron ore
 
Also, sorry for pinging you, @Frank
 
12:37 PM
Ah I see.
Still didn't get the axes it had before back.
 
Pinging @Frank is the worst
@RonanForman Nope, you don't
 
@Frank I'm not sorry for pinging you.
 
Oh right, I can only assign jobs the the villager that already had a job, the other 3 are broken.
 
@RonanForman Yeah, you'll need to disable them from the console

Can you get items out of the furnace yet?
 
@RonanForman Yes

anything done through addObject should set hasOwned to true
 
@fredley Yeah.
 
@SaintWacko On latest build villagers is working for me, I'll push updates
@SaintWacko It may be a problem with an old save though
 
12:57 PM
I can't actually find the code which deals with taking things out of the furnace.
 
@SaintWacko Updates pushed
@RonanForman Click handling for all of the furnace squares is done together

That's why.
 
Yup, already fixed
 
Cool.
 
Also should only add one!
 
12:59 PM
Hmmm, shears aren't a thing.
 
Nope
Could be though, for making another type of villager
 
@fredley Only for output, input should be 10 as you added 10 in.
@fredley And for getting wool.
 
@RonanForman Yes
@RonanForman Yeah. I'm not really sure how to do mob stuff yet, @KevinvanderVelden is going to work on a 2D map for exploration
 
@fredley Well you get eggs and porkchops passively, so surely you'd get wool passively if you had shears.
 
@RonanForman Yeah, I need to go over generation of stuff
Particularly hostile mob drops like string
I'm pretty sure string is unobtainable atm
 
1:01 PM
@fredley I haven't got any.
 
@RonanForman Neither have I, and I have diamond swords
 
@fredley How?

@fredley haven't implemented that yet =p
First wanted to get the rendering working
 
@KevinvanderVelden I see. Don't worry about that, I can write the code to tuck it away in a tab
Actually, @KevinvanderVelden it would make sense to give you push perms on the main repo
I've added you, you may need to do some git-fu to point your repo at the main one instead of your fork
@KevinvanderVelden Probably best to create a new branch for your stuff, then we can merge complete features to master. I'll do the same
 
Jeah I'm trying to merge stuff right now
I hadn't pulled in a while
 
Yeah sorry, been working quickly

@RonanForman Hmmm, can't auto-merge
@RonanForman You also have permissions on the repo now, so it will be easier to work on a branch of the repo (rather than a fork)
 
Yeah, because there's been edits between me forking at merging, which you apparently can't do.
'kay.
 
clone the repo (as you did before); git checkout -b Nanor; [make changes]; git commit -m 'Stuff'; git checkout master; git merge Nanor
 
I should do that after the merge right?
 
5:29 PM
@RonanForman Probably easier to just start a fresh, your last PR was only two lines after all
 
Yeah, it was right after submitting that last one I thought of better names for the buttons.
 
@RonanForman Work on features on your branch. Pull and merge changes on master into your branch as they happen. When you're done with a feature, or at a stable point, switch to master and merge in your branch, then push.
 
Pushing it making it live right?
 
well 'live' as in it's then part of master, which other people will then merge into their working branches
