4:00 PM
@Frank Because the Mechromancer has no need to aim. And needs to shoot ALL the bullets.
 
Shotguns are currently my best friend
Because I built claptrap like a truck, so I can just run in "Hi! boom"
Shotguns have always been my best friend
Because my aim is not very... existent.
I mean, it's okay, but why shoot 10 bullets to kill something when you can shoot 1?
 
Although as Mechromancer, I was quite partial to high-pellet Torgue shotguns.
 
I'm not a huge fan of Torgue weapons. The extra damage is nice, and they work in close quarters, but the projectile speed is... blarg
 
I don't like gyrojets.
 
@Unionhawk but...
!!EXPLOSIONS!!
 
4:13 PM
@MBraedley Claptrap skill: Coincidental Combustion: Whenever you shoot an enemy with a non-Explosive weapon, you have a 7% chance per rank to deal bonus Explosive damage. The bonus damage is based on the weapon's damage.
 
@Unionhawk I take it you did a mechromancer anarchy build
 
@MBraedley I actually haven't played BL2 as extensively as I would like
 
@Unionhawk generally I agree, but the shotgun added explosions to the pellets, which ment that even if there was no ricochet, as long as it landed near something it was hurt. (Mostly sucked for the long stretches where you caught nothing but explosion resistant robots)
 
I've restarted as the Commando after being really invested in a Zer0 solo gameplay (which went poorly)
 
4:17 PM
NOT AGAIN
 
Burgers with eggs are delicious.
 
HATE
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE
>:(
 
burn script strikes again!
 
GODDAMMIT NO T_T
 
I see no food here :P
 
4:18 PM
I JUST ATE LUNCH AND I'M HUNGRY AGAIN
THANKS OBAMA @YUUKI
 
I haven't eaten yet
@Yuuki is clearly the devil

@Yuuki Eggs make everything better.
 
All in favour of @Yuuki being declared a monster?
 
aye
 
 
4:20 PM
nay
 
It has a flower design on the bun!
 
T_T
 
All in favor of declaring him a hunter?
 
@Wipqozn aye just to disagree with @Frank
 
Thank you @fredley for the chat-burning script
 
4:20 PM
:P
 
@Unionhawk Little do you know that's all part of my nefarious plan!
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo
 
2 VOTES FOR, 1 AGAINST
@Yuuki Monster Status: Very.
 
Can it be going home time yet?

Q: How can I take out items from a container?

Mauricio Pasquier JuanI have a few bins with finished goods like toys, rings, scepters and the like inside, but they also have items that I don't want to sell (crutches, rope, soap, splints, etc). Currently they're in a stockpile in which I disabled those types of finished good, but no dwarf takes them out of there. ...

 
@Powerlord no
 
@Powerlord soon(tm)
 
 
4:37 PM
I am honestly surprised this wasn't reversed.
 
@StrixVaria ouch, my brain
 
@StrixVaria That only works because it's a 2D image.
If that was a real object, kudoes to the creator, because that's cool.
 
DAMMIT @UNI DON'T SCROLL UP THERE'S DELICIOUS LOOKING FOOD THERE THAT YOU CAN'T EAT BECAUSE IT'S JUST AN IMAGE
 
@Yuuki is quickly becoming the embodiment of evil

4:41 PM
He has a ways to go before he surpasses @Wipqozn.
Because he's the worst.
 
MONSTER
 
@Unionhawk :)
 
I haven't had lunch yet, either.
 
>:(
 
and it's like 12:40pm here.
 
4:42 PM
@Unionhawk What's your favourite kind of food?
 
Also whacks Dubya that's for making DST end super late now.

Alexander's Star is a puzzle similar to the Rubik's Cube, in the shape of a great dodecahedron. == History == Alexander's Star was invented by Adam Alexander, an American mathematician, in 1982. It was patented on 26 March 1985, with US patent number 4,506,891, and sold by the Ideal Toy Company. It came in two varieties: painted surfaces or stickers. Since the design of the puzzle practically forces the stickers to peel with continual use, the painted variety is likely a later edition. == Description == The puzzle has 30 moving pieces, which rotate in star-shaped groups of five around i...
 
FAE
Evening, Bridge.
 
@Sconibulus That's...pretty cool, actually.
I might get one of those.
 
4:43 PM
@FAE It's @FAE!
 
FAE
Has @Gnomeslice been about today? He lives in Ottawa, wanted to make sure he was okay.
@TimStone Hi!
 
@FAE havent seen @DwarfSlice
 
@FAE @DwarfSlice, and I haven't seen him yet today :|
 
He's probably just at work. I don't believe there have been any reports of injuries of anyone else, has there?
 
FAE
@Wipqozn I don't think so, but downtown's still in lockdown I think.
 
4:45 PM
He did mention that he had work this morning to me yesterday.
 
@Wipqozn hero of winds link likes grandma's soup. so... do fancy soups
 
Well, I think I have something to make you guys feel better about all the food I posted.
I made lunch:
 
I'll ping @DwarfSlice on facebook.
 
Hmm, apparently the FCC suspended review of the Comcast/TWC merger and the AT&T/DirecTV merger because they refuse to talk about the details of some of their contracts.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn I messaged him on steam, but got no answer, so figured I'd check here.
 
4:47 PM
 
@Yuuki Is that tofu?
 
...suspending also means the mergers are blocked for the moment.
 
@StrixVaria Mapo tofu, yes.
 
@StrixVaria See? Told you it'd make you feel better about the burgers I posted.
 
4:48 PM
@FAE 'Ello, 'ello
@Yuuki I STILL WOULD ENJOY THIS DAMN YOU
 
As much as I hate tofu. it is pretty magical
 
FAE
@TimStone I don't think I'm going to be able to finish Borderlands:TPS before Beyond Earth comes out on Friday </firstworldgamerproblems>
 
not many foods can taste similar to anything
 
@Rapitor Tofu just has bad connotations in American culture because of the connection with vegetarian cooking.
 
@FAE You can do it! But I've also got that on preorder so I feel part of your pain. :P
 
4:49 PM
And the problem is that they tried to substitute tofu for everything.
 
I didn't finish Alien: Isolation before Dreamfall: Chapters episode 1 came out (which was yesterday btw)
 
@Rapitor chicken is often used to describe other tastes
 
Interesting results this morning
 
@Yuuki I don't like tofu because I've eaten it and it's disgusting.
 
@StrixVaria What, had a tofu dog or tofurkey?
 
4:49 PM
"Tastes like chicken" is a common declaration used when trying to describe the flavour of an unusual food. The expression has been used so often that it has become somewhat of a cliché. As a result, the phrase is also sometimes used to provide incongruous humor, by being used to describe foods or situations where it has no real relevance. == Possible explanations == As an explanation of why unusual meats would taste more like chicken than common alternatives such as beef or pork, different possibilities have been offered. One idea is that chicken has a bland taste because fat contributes ...
 
exactly
 
@Yuuki Also because preparing tofu incorrectly is gross
 
@Yuuki No, tofu, like in the form in your picture above.
 
@StrixVaria Oh, okay.
 
FAE
@TimStone I think many people have more of a texture issue with tofu than a taste issue
 
4:51 PM
@FAE Yes. It didn't really taste like much of anything, but the texture was vomit-inducing.
 
Tofu made to resemble meat is also an abomination. I like tofu but srsly.
 
@TimStone Yes, this.
 
@FAE Right, but the texture is a product of the preparation too. :P
 
Tofu also comes in a variety of different forms and textures. Unfortunately, Americans tend to use the super-firm variety.
 
FAE
@TimStone True! I don't have any real issues with texture in food, myself, so I can't relate well.
 
4:52 PM
Tofu confuses me more than anything
 
I find it amusing that Halo: Master Chief Collection is larger than a Blu-Ray disc.
and that instead of making a second disc, they made a mandatory 20GB day one DLC.
 
@Yuuki I went to a place that did this specifically and I was like "WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?"
 
@Powerlord DEAR GOD
 
@FAE I don't with most things. Except soggy bread. Gross.
 
yesterday, by murgatroid99
@badp It's 4 whole Halo games and every Halo multiplayer map ever. I'd be surprised if it wasn't enormous
 
4:53 PM
@TimStone God, every time I see tofu dogs or some other attempt at tofu-ized Western food, I want to break something.
 
FAE
@TimStone Not a fan of bread pudding then?
 
@Powerlord It's meant to be a unified experience and avoid swapping discs
 
@Yuuki This was like shrimp-shaped/flavoured tofu and stuff, I don't even
 
@Powerlord They said that most of the content is multiplayer, so disk swapping would be a pain
 
@Batophobia As @murgatroid99 already pointed out, it's 4 separate games.
Why would you care about disc swapping when you're game swapping?
 
4:54 PM
27 secs ago, by murgatroid99
@Powerlord They said that most of the content is multiplayer, so disk swapping would be a pain
 
@FAE It depends, I guess. It's not something I've had a lot of to have a distinct opinion on
 
@Powerlord Because swap disc mean get up, get disc, take old one out, put new one in, wait for it to load up...
 
@Powerlord Plus, they have mission playlists that span all of the games
 
@murgatroid99 "most" is not all... and since we're talking 20GB out of 65GB total it's nearly 1/3 of the game.
 
Hrm... i5-4690k for ~$192.. I think I like this deal...
 
4:56 PM
@Powerlord Personally, I'm glad I don't have to deal with disk swapping
 
<insert the paperbot's advice about just get the non-K>
 
Of course, I ended up buying a digital copy, so I guess that doesn't really count
 
Disk swapping is annoying in every game ever
 
FAE
@TimStone I had White Russian Bread pudding once. It was amazing.
@TimStone It was at this place in Ohio that serves nothing but different kinds of grilled cheese sandwiches called The Melt.
 
oooh :o
 
4:58 PM
@FAE I'd be careful what you say about food @TimStone tends to get a bit grumpy when good food is mentioned.
He even tried to ban-hammer @Yuuki
But he was too hungry
 
@Powerlord They have some playlist feature where you can pick and choose missions from different games
 
@Unionhawk The only times I thought it was OK was when playing really long RPGs, where the first half of the game is on one disk, and the second half is on the other, so there's a total of one disk swap in a 100+ hour game
 
So that would be prohibitive to that
 
Yeauh! The Ubuntu Unity Web-app for Youtube is working!
 
@TimStone I think there are also built-in playlists that span multiple games
 
4:59 PM
What are discs? Can you get those on Steam? :P
 
Disk swapping did get annoying in the first Baldur's Gate
 
@JasonBerkan Oh you :P
 
I'm pretty sure there's one that's just every mission from all of the games
 
Except, adblock doesn't work :P
 
@RPiAwesomeness you monster
 
5:00 PM
@Unionhawk lol, I hate ads
 
@TimStone I hope that means you can skip Keyes from the first game.
 
@RPiAwesomeness I have adblock specifically whitelisted on YouTube and Twitch
 
FAE
@TimStone I took a picture of the description, lemme find it

Q: Easiest ways to get Legendaries in Borderlands Pre Sequel

LucidiousXIVDoes anyone know of any way to get Legendary weapons quickly end efficiently in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel? I've tried grinding basic enemies and npcs, but haven't seemed to be able to get any.

 
5:02 PM
@FAE Ooo...
 
FAE
 
@Unionhawk That makes sense. Kinda a moot thing for me, don't the people still get paid?
Or, can they tell whether the image loads or not
@Wipqozn Oh noes. Not this again
 
@FAE mmmmmm
 
No.
It's trivial to check if an ad loads or not
 
Welcome to the bridge, where a cats riding Roombas gets more attention than world news!
 
5:03 PM
@Blem lol
@Unionhawk I figured
I essentially have to have Adblock installed for my internet to be useable.
 
@StrixVaria I'm pretty sure it means you can play any mission you want from any game
 
It turns to molasses if it's not enabled
 
FAE
@TimStone It was the best dessert ever
 
So you can just play The Library over and over again if you really want to
 
@murgatroid99 Silent Cartographer, if I'm going to do that.
Certainly not The Library.
I only know the first game.
 
5:04 PM
> When I first made the jump to YouTube in 2012 I saw a little over half of my views go monetized, whereas today in 2014 it's around 34%
 
Dood. Captain Sparklez video posted 2 minutes ago. Under 100 club FTW O.O
 
@RPiAwesomeness This is fair
I will allow this.
 
@FAE It does sound pretty tasty. As do the other things I can spy on that menu omfg I'm so hungry ;_;
 
@Unionhawk Thank you
 
@StrixVaria When I get the game, I'll probably start by playing the everything playlist
 
FAE
5:06 PM
@TimStone I took a pic of the full menu too :D
 
:O
 
Hm
 
FAE
@TimStone Lookit all those grilled cheese sammiches
 
Not anywhere near me
 
Also you should finish BL for the story elements, so quick, quick! ;)
 
5:07 PM
Well, the columbus one can't be terribly far
 
@FAE O.O
 
Now I have to decide what lesser foods to have for lunch :(

Q: Large online games for actual mature audiences

user90542I'd like to ask if there are any games that are actually played by more mature ( > 18 years old) players. I am 22 and I am annoyed by the omnipresent pre-teens and teenagers ruining a lot of the community based games, so I'm looking to spend some of my free time on games, where I don't have to in...

Q: Adding parts from other mods to Kerbal Attachment System

JarmundI've played KSP for a while now, and my approach here has been the same as with other games: First try it out vanilla, then add mods as I see which holes they'd fill. I added mechjeb first, to automate the repetitive stuff that I'd done manually more than Jebediah himself. Works fine. I then add...

 
@TimStone I had homemade french bread and a tomato-stew-thing for lunch
 
FAE
@Unionhawk It's a really fun atmosphere in the restaurant too. The one I was in had had movie-style posters done of their weekly/monthly specials.
 
5:09 PM
I've got class until 3, so second lunch (THANKS @YUUKI AND @FAE) will have to wait until then :/
 
FAE
Like that one
 
@Lazers Game recommendation, go!
 
Wait is that question looking for the game version of an orgy?
 
@Batophobia bad time to return the conversation... wat
 
@Batophobia Adult oriented != inappropriate for kids
 
5:11 PM
"Large online games for actual mature audiences"
 
I think he's just looking for an online game free of a bunch of dumb kids
 
@Batophobia He just doesn't want to deal with 12-year olds insulting him over COD.
THAT'S RIGHT COD FANS I WENT THERE1
 
Ah ok, they want a game where the userbase is 18+
 
AND TAKE THAT 12-YEAR OLDS!
 
@Batophobia That is what they said in the question
 
5:13 PM
rtfq
 
Title is misleading
 
@Unionhawk Which is likely to prove an impossible task. Kids are the worst, and they're everywhere.
 
@Batophobia You could have also read the following sentence that was also embedded in chat
 
2 hours ago, by Unionhawk
@Batophobia no u
@murgatroid99 "I'd like to ask if there are any games that are actually played by more mature ( > 18 years old) players"
still fits
 
@Batophobia Yes. That is about the player base, and not the content
 
5:14 PM
Ooo, or I could call this lab done and leave
 
@FAE dies of delicious deprivation
 
And get food now
TAKE THAT @YUUKI
 
@Unionhawk Yeah, that @Yuuki!
 
@FAE Mother of god
 
5:16 PM
I went to a grilled cheese place in San Francisco. Everything on the menu came with an apple.
 
@Wipqozn Joke's on you, I'm actually leaving for lunch
 
San Francisco is weird.
 
Well, this is back firing horribly, becaue now I'm hungry.
Scumbag @Yuuki. This is all your fault!
 
TAKE THAT @WIPQOZN
 
FAE
5:16 PM
@StrixVaria That reminds me of people who order the largest, most unhealthiest thing in McDonald's or something and get a Diet pop.
 
I think I might get pizza for supper now... because: pizza.
 
@FAE I prefer the taste of diet to regular.
 
and also eat early. I did, after all, skip lunch.
 
@Wipqozn backfired
 
@StrixVaria What is this, Monster Chat?
 
5:17 PM
@StrixVaria eugh
 
FAE
@StrixVaria Yeah, so does Jochem, but you know what I mean
 
Diet soda is worse for you anyway, silly people.
 
@Arperum I am letting the combo die at 680K ...
 
@murgatroid99 Finally
 
5:19 PM
@StrixVaria Yeah, that was within the last few minutes, I think
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 So it's... different from gmail?
 
@FAE It's a different UI for gmail
And it has reminders and stuff
 
@FAE Looks like it can read keywords in emails and set up things for you
 
I thought it already did that though
 
5:21 PM
Oh, it also lets you snooze emails, to remind you about them later
 
I had a newegg email with tracking number and my phone automatically tracked it
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 Huh, that's neat
 
that was nice
 
@Batophobia Yeah, I was pretty freaked out when I was looking up where the airport was on the Big Island and Google Maps told me that I had a flight out of that airport at 10pm the next day.
 
FAE
@Batophobia That's Google Now functionality I believe
 
5:22 PM
And it compresses low-priority messages into a single line, so that more screen space goes to more important messages
 
@FAE Ah, so how is this new thing different?
@JasonBerkan Incredible stuff them Google peeps do
 
FAE
@Batophobia points up at the article
 
@Batophobia I was surprised due to the fact they would have had to parse a PDF attached to an e-mail in order to get the information they were displaying.
 
@Batophobia Integration. It's in the same app as your email
 
@murgatroid99 ah ok
 
5:23 PM
@JasonBerkan Your confirmation email didn't contain the flight number?
Because that, along with the date, is enough to look up the details
 
@murgatroid99 It listed the names of the people on my tickets.
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 So is this eventually going to replace gmail?
 
@JasonBerkan Huh. My confirmation emails from united usually contain all of the info
 
@FAE wave was going to do that too, so we'll see
 
@FAE I think all I can say is that it's not doing so now
 
FAE
5:25 PM
@murgatroid99 Gotcha.
I'm gonna go on the assumption this'll be sort of like the Hangouts rollout for gchat eventually.
 
@FAE It probably depends on how popular Inbox gets compared to the regular Gmail interface
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 I'm kind of intrigued if you have an invite to spare. I'll be doing a bunch of flying in a couple months, so I could get some good use out of it, potentially.
 
@murgatroid99 Is it mobile-only?
 
@Batophobia no
 
inb4 everyone starts posting their favorite xkcd
 
5:29 PM
@FAE I need a gmail address to send it to
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 my Steam name at gmail
Thought I had you already, apparently not. Found you though!
 
@FAE sent
 
I'm interested in it, but I probably wouldn't take advantage of its specific functionalities.
 
@Yuuki Honestly, I don't use it, but since I have invites to spare I thought I'd send them to people who would
 
I'm posing mine anyway!
 
5:35 PM
Apparently, GameStop has sent me a B2G1 coupon thingie.
 
FAE
@murgatroid99 Thank you!
 
and of course, my job description:
(that's all I'll post)
 
Apparently there is going to be a Five Nights at Freddy's 2
 
@Batophobia Big surprise...
 
@Powerlord Basically, anyone who does any computer software or hardware related job
 
5:36 PM
@Powerlord No doors...
 
@Frank Don't forget to vote after work.
 
I'm getting really hungry. I blame @Yuuki. I also blame @Unionhawk for provoking @Yuuki to taunt him.
 
@TrentHawkins I have so little time. I want to, but I'm not sure if I can jam in between getting home and running to the studio.
 
@Wipqozn You're welcome.
I, for one, ate lunch
 
@Unionhawk You're officially worse than @Yuuki.
Perhaps this is what I deserve.
 
5:42 PM
@Frank Isn't there a law that requires employers to offer time?
 
My deserved punishment for all the crimes I have committed over the years.
 
@Batophobia To vote? Not to my knowledge.
 
@Frank I believe there is.
 
@Frank I'm not sure about Canada, but I'm pretty sure US has one
 
I've always thought voting happens on your own time.
I don't know of any law that says employers have to give you time to go vote.
 
5:43 PM
I'm almost certain it's a thing in the US
 
@Frank There is here. You need 4 uninterrupted hours or something like that.
 
@Frank Then you can have a portion of the population unable to elect their officials
 
So really, THERE IS NO EXCUSE
 
> By law, qualified electors must have three consecutive hours to cast their vote on election day. If your hours of work do not allow for three consecutive hours to vote, your employer must give you time off.
 
5:44 PM
I just found a question on SO with 11 comment answers and no actual answers

Q: The application account information was incorrect

razesh While Validating the app getting this error. After Restarting the Xcode and Mac Machine.

 
@JasonBerkan Doesn't that just apply to federal voting?
 
@Unionhawk AS WITH MOST THINGS, IT VARIES BY STATE.
 
@OrigamiRobot Probably.
Almost certainly, yeah
 
NC HAS NO LAWS
 
@Wipqozn Well, that's not so much an employer problem right now; it's a time management issue on my end.
 
5:45 PM
@OrigamiRobot ANARCHY
 
@Frank Yea, that my be the case.
 
OHIO:
Employers cannot fire or threaten to fire an employee for taking a reasonable amount of time to vote. Paid only for salaried employees.
 
@Frank Provinces set their own rules, so it's possible that MB is odd.
 
@OrigamiRobot So basically in the state of Ohio, you're allowed to say "I'm going to go vote now", and your employer can't really do anything about that other than not pay you if you're hourly
 
RIGHT
 
5:47 PM
Provided you don't say "I need the whole day to vote"
 
@Unionhawk They can find a different reason to fire you
 
Because you don't
@Batophobia They wouldn't risk it, probably

Q: Does anyone know where to download Squadbots, or have it?

MuphinsSquadbots is an old game wich did run on DOS. In this game you write programs to pilot a squad of 50 little spaceships fighting another squad using missiles. You select 2 programs (one for each opposing squad) and see wich one is the more efficient and will exterminate the other squad. I had thi...

 
@Batophobia I was going to say they could fire you for being too attractive but that was Iowa
 
@TimStone Wait, really?
 
5:48 PM
@Unionhawk Meanwhile in Florida they selectively throw out votes.
 
I'm afraid to find out if @TimStone is trolling, because he rarely only sometimes is
 
Good thing I don't live in Iowa, I'd never find a job :D
 
@StrixVaria Haha, old election jokes! (I truly don't remember the year... 2004?)
 
@Batophobia Yes
 
2004
@TimStone I... ಠ_ಠ
 
5:50 PM
IN NC THEY DON'T HAVE TO GIVE YOU ANY REASON TO FIRE YOU
YOU'RE JUST FIRED. THE END.
 
@StrixVaria Yeah...there's a lot of corruption in the American voting system... it's really sad
 
@Wipqozn YOU'RE REALLY SAD
 
The recent robocalling incident in Canada was terrible too
 
OOO BURN
 
@OrigamiRobot While most states have at will employment
If you can prove the firing was due to discrimination then they are liable in any state
That has been proven over and over again
 
5:51 PM
@James So basically NC is in the dark ages or something like that
 
@James RIGHT, THAT'S WHY EMPLOYERS HERE DON'T GIVE ANY REASON EVEN IF THERE IS A VALID ONE
 
Sounds about right
 
@Unionhawk Yup, that's why they all randomly start talking in all caps
 
IT'S NOT RANDOM AT ALL
 
@OrigamiRobot hush you
 
5:52 PM
@Batophobia This is true of both the people from NC I know, so it must be true
 
Iowa is also an at-will without restriction state.
 
your imaginary "auto-cad" thingy
 
You can be fired for any reason unless that reason is discriminatory in a way that violates anti-discrimination laws.
 
IOWA:
Any voter who does not have three consecutive hours in the period between the time of the opening and the time of the closing of the polls during which they are not required to work may take as much time off of work as necessary to give then three consecutive hours in which to vote.
 
@TimStone Wait, but...?
?
???
 
5:54 PM
Which was the basis for the lawsuit; the all-male court in Iowa decided she was totally not fired for being a woman, just her attractiveness was a distraction!
 
Descrimination of all people named @Tim
 
What. The. Fuck.
 
(Therefore totally okay)
 
FAE
@TimStone ughhhhhhhh
 
@TimStone She wasn't fired for being a woman. She was fired for being a woman that her boss was attracted to
 
5:56 PM
"The jury finds the defendant too attractive" is quite the accusation.
