More goodies for @Yuuki

Yuuki

@OrigamiRobot !!!

I don't care if this patch contains nothing else, but the combat bonds alone make it worth it for me

Everything else I'm looking forward to should be in Wings

· The Community Goal has a number of tiers that unlock as its aims are met. These tiers provide ever increasing rewards to both the community as a whole and to individual contributors.

Oooooh, you are actually rewarded for the sommunity goals stuff.

For whatever reason, I thought it was just a "Support your home base" type thing

Is there a reason for me to play with other people yet?

Not yet.

8:13 PM

HALLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So the Star Wars Humble Bundle has some top notch games in it

And then also some pretty solid games.

@OrigamiRobot yea

the force unleashed control scheme on pc is pretty weak

basically they just remapped console inputs to keys

I haven't played Dark FOrces or TFU2, but all the rest are solid or better

Except Empire at War. I didn't like that

empire at war was a good concept, but got boring real fast

@spugsley butts and/or baby punches

8:16 PM

BUTTS

@spugsley how many cm did you get yesterday?

@MattGiltaji cm?

NOT COOL MAN

We can only ask @Wipqozn stuff like that.

Q: How to play Homeworld: Cataclysm in 1920x1080 32bit?

0

So I have a modern computer with a fullhd monitor and I want to play Homeworld: Cataclysm in fullscreen, at full resolution and color. But it only lets me select up to 1600x1200 and it looks pretty bad. I tried using the D3D renderer setting the width and height in registry settings manually, but...

@Sterno :( my apologies @spugsley

8:17 PM

WHAT AM I BEING ASKED?!

2 hours ago, by Ashley Nunn

Hey I got 20 cm yesterday I am good for now

2 hours ago, by Ashley Nunn

Hey I got 20 cm yesterday I am good for now

inafter

OF WHAT?!

@Sterno HAHA TOO SLOW OLD MAN

@spugsley Isn't it obvious?

is this a next-level penis joke that I don't understand?

8:18 PM

@Wipqozn I already said "inafter". YOU WERE TOO SLOW TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ME BEING SLOW

@spugsley It's a metric penis joke.

@spugsley What?! IT's about snow! @AshleyNunn had a snowstorm yesterday.,

He inb4ed your too slow comment

@Wipqozn jon snow, maybe

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Man, get your mind out of the gutter @spugsley!

8:19 PM

I didn't get any snow. It's 50 degrees (F) here

@spugsley That's a nice temp.

yeah, it's pretty nice :)

IT's currently 12.2 degrees F here

> You need to have a legal reason to interdict someone - so they should be wanted.

cc @TimStone

Oh hey, the Vim site went into private beta.

Tim Stone

8:22 PM

@OrigamiRobot aha

It's cold here.

Powerlord

@Wipqozn What about the Emacs site?

Baaaw :3

The snowman might be a bit... challenged.

Did she name it?

8:23 PM

Nope

djsmiley2k

sigh

Mostly she ate it

@Powerlord Not sure. I only committed to the Vim one. Emacs is for lame people.

lol

All the cool kids use Vim!

@Sterno Is that @SkyDrift?

8:24 PM

@Wipqozn Indeed

@Sterno I didn't even realize she was able to walk.

@Wipqozn Yeah, they learn how to do that eventually.

@Sterno For some reason I keep forgetting @SkyDrift isn't super young, only really young.

@Sterno Is this a park or do you have a pond in your yard?

ughhh I need to write but it's really hard when I've had multiple people today and yesterday tell me that I need to stop because I suck. That hurts, even when it comes from someone hiding behind an anonymous internet name :(

8:25 PM

@OrigamiRobot Trying to decide if you should hate @Sterno?

Yes

Tim Stone

@OrigamiRobot I had a pond in my yard when I lived in Canadia, it was pretty awesome.

@OrigamiRobot Behind my yard, yeah.

Lucky!

Basically a bunch of houses ring around it

8:26 PM

@spugsley you should write about punching them

Tim Stone

Oh, actually we had one when we lived in Delaware the first time too, like @Sterno's arrangement.

@spugsley I think you need to stop because you make the rest of us look bad. It's really rude of you to be so much better at writing than us. You're basically a monster. A talented, horrible monster.

Tons of fish in it

Does it have fish in it and can you fish in it?

But I wouldn't eat any of them

You can practically reach in and grab the fish there are so many

8:27 PM

@Wipqozn I do very much like the idea of being a horrible monster

But the street gutters drain into the pond so I don't think I'd eat anything in there. Plus I know one neighbor who runs a carpet cleaning company who a neighbor caught dumping his chemicals down the drain. Jerk.

But you can indeed fish, and people do

@MattGiltaji then they win. I don't think they even mean it, they just like to make people feel bad

That's such a cute little amount of snow.

Also, if you can build a snowman, it ain't cold.

@JasonBerkan I know. You can see grass and everything.

That was a few days ago when the snow was nice and wet. Now it's that dry powdery awful stuff. And ice

But yeah, it's not Canada cold or anything

I definitely didn't get 20 cm

8:29 PM

@spugsley haters gonna hate, i suppose

@spugsley Also, keep in mind that the internet also contains people who think Tom Hiddleston is a no-talent hack. Do you really want to put any stock in what they say? They're obviously insane.

truth

@Wipqozn BLASHPHEMYYYYYY

Look at that .How can you hate that?

oh hey, that's my phone background

QED internet is filled with dumb people whose opinions you should ignore

Except us. Our opinions are always right.

8:30 PM

Especially when we disagree.

@Wipqozn you can't hate that. It's mentally impossible. You try and you just pass out and wake up with no memory of it

@spugsley I'm now imaging a group of Tom hiddleston police, which is a police force made up of clones of Tom Hiddleston, which go around drugging people who dislike him.

@Wipqozn well obvi because I am here and I am always right too. And so are all of you.

the Bridge is always right about everything!

7

@Wipqozn I'm going to need one of those clones. For reasons.

I kind of want to see that time travel movie that just came out

Except it looks pretty bad

@Sterno I'm not sure what movie that is, but it probably.

8:32 PM

Project Almanac

@Sterno go see Strange Magic instead

Oh, that one.

seriously, it was fucking great.

or Big Hero 6

I thought I was going to hate it. With so much hate.

8:33 PM

Assuming it's still in theatres. I saw it a couple weeks ago. It was pretty rad.

I did see Into The Woods and want that 2 hours of my life back

@Wipqozn that should be the bridge movie night

@Sterno What's it called?

1 min ago, by Sterno

Project Almanac

It's another one of those friends get a camera movies, like CLoverfield

Fluttershy

8:36 PM

@spugsley You are the first person I've seen say Strange Magic was good. O_o One review had some particularly nasty things to say about it that I cannot repeat in the Bridge.

@Wipqozn Yeah. That's usually not a good sign

Though I actually liked Chronicle okay.

(not that I'd actively recommend it to anyone)

Time Travel is my jam, though

Sanderson needs to get on that.

Fluttershy

I actually heard Project Almanac wasn't terrible.

@Fluttershy I was oddly attracted to the Bog King. I have a problem. Don't judge me.

@spugsley Given that it's a kid movie, I'm sure I'll see it at some point, though at home

@spugsley TOO LATE! JUDGING COMPLETE!

@Sterno So you'll see it for less money? That's good.

Fluttershy

8:39 PM

@FAE and I went and saw Selma when she was here. It was an excellent movie.

@Wipqozn Not so much "for less money", but "with the kids". And I am not masochistic enough to try to bring a 2 year old to the theater.

@Sterno Everyone else at the theatre thanks you.

@Wipqozn Everyone else at the theater probably brought their two year old

@Sterno Those people are the worst.

Never see a kids movie during the day on a weekend.

8:40 PM

@Wipqozn Oh. Yuck.

> Canadian smoking rate drops to 15%, lowest ever

That's pretty rad.

I should get chinese food sometime this week. Perhaps tomorrow. Probably Thursday.

DAMMIT APPLICATION! WHY WON'T YOU CRASH!?!

Oh, I could also get thai food.

@MBraedley Poor @MBraedley. He's gone completely insane while trying to reproduce a bug.

Tonight is date night and we're getting Colombian food mmmmm

@Wipqozn yep!

8:43 PM

@Wipqozn Is that counting ecigs or no?

Okay, this is pretty gorgeous:

Or not. We're supposed to get 15cm thursday. Might not go out in that.

@OrigamiRobot I have no idea. I'm too lazy to log in to get by our "you've already read 10 articles this month!" paywall.

Ew, gross

I'm also too lazy to just clear my cache or disable javascript.

8:44 PM

Don't you work for a newspaper? Just ask one of the reporters there!

@Wipqozn Only 15cm of snow? Baby.

@OrigamiRobot That's the site I'm talking about. Also I'm home, not at work.

Take that, random star person!

4

I am confused by your reply

@Frank Yeah, 15cm isn't much compared to you crazy wherever you live again people

8:47 PM

15cm would shut down this city

@OrigamiRobot @Frank lives in the most snow filled part of Canada which isn't in the middle o no where. Same with @JasonBerkan.

15cm for them is basically just "babies first snow storm"

I doubt we got 6 inches all of last year

5 CM would probably shut down florida

15cm wouldn't shut down the city, but it would be bad enough schools will be closed.

Powerlord

8:52 PM

We got nearly 30cm here Sunday afternoon/night, which did shut down the city

@OrigamiRobot so sad :(

doubt we'll get any this year at all

That's not how you use a controller...

Powerlord

I still have a Wavebird around here somewhere

@Powerlord i think my wavebird finally died

8:55 PM

In Charlotte, 0.2" counts as a White Christmas

Oh right, you live in the south.

Charlotte's snowiest year had a whopping 22.9"

in a row?

@Sterno All year

That was a Clerks reference which played back into the inches thing and oh nevermind

9:01 PM

I've only seen Clerks 2

YOU CRAZY KIDS

@JasonBerkan how much snow would it take to close your schools?

@Wipqozn Sort of. Saskatchewan's climate is almost a desert. We end the year with a lot of snow, simply because none of it melts. But each snowfall is fairly small.

@OrigamiRobot They never close due to weather.

bahaha

Buses may stop running if we get a big snowfall, but parents would still take their kids to school.

9:03 PM

ignore this

3

@Wipqozn Wait, you work at the newspaper, and you can't even get past the paywall?

I should have copied that message and posted t before you deleted

@MBraedley I can. I'm just too lazy to.

I would either need to log-in, clear my cookies, or disable javascript.

personality test thing

Noine of which I feel like doing right now.

Also ssshhhh, I didn't just reveal how to get by the paywall

@Wipqozn Really? That's all it takes?

Stack Exchange

9:05 PM

Sterno has added Wipqozn to the list of this room's owners.

@MBraedley There's one other way as well, but I'm not telling!

I'm calling the work cops!

@Wipqozn Well, proxies

Our average yearly snowfall is around 40 inches.

@MBraedley Nope.

Also, I'm going to eat now.

badp

9:07 PM

Today it snowed for like 40 minutes.

We have 55 days per year where we get > 0.08 inches of snow.

@badp You don't get to complain until it snows for 4 hours straight.

> Missiles, Type 6s, Type 9s, Vipers and Cobra MkIIIs have been reduced in cost to support testing.

Type-9 missle boat go!

doesnt type 9 only have 2 small hardpoints?

STOP RUINING MY DREAMS

9:09 PM

but it's fun

will the main game still get a 1.08 patch?

Unsure

I'd guess "if needed"

There was a webserver update today

I didn't see anywhere in the massive 1.1 list about social stuff being fixed. like chat just straight up not working

badp

@MBraedley I wasn't complaining.

When it does snow here it goes for much longer than 4 hours.

Maybe even upwards of 30!

THE SNOWFALL WAS THIS HIGH puts index and thumb a little ways apart

much jealousy

9:25 PM

@Rapitor so Mbps. Wow

Dora guy won the SF election. MY VOTE MATTERED

GnomeSlice

devilsdare.com/piracy.html

Huh.

Not sure how I feel about that.

Good for them at least recognizing it as a potential issue.

@GnomeSlice yeah it is interesting

@RPiAwesomeness So, the Bukkit thing. Mojang acquired Bukkit in early 2012. In August 2014, EvilSeph announced he was discontinuing Bukkit. That same day, Dinnerbone said he'd personally update it to 1.8, but it was not and is not the official API. In September 2014, one of the open source contributors to Bukkit issued a takedown, on the grounds that the use of his open source code in a closed source game violated the GPL. Or something like that. And now Bukkit is in limbo forever.

And there's not really anything anybody can do about it

@Unionhawk i thought when you contributed to most open source stuff you signed away the right to sue and such

ie, only the project itself could sue

badp

/cc @Wipqozn

9:42 PM

@Unionhawk Oh yea, i remember reading about this mess.

The I decided i didn't care because the people involved in making the mess were just being dicks.

@Sterno Dora guy?

@OrigamiRobot Pretty much yes

I wonder if Club Nintendo's ending will cause problems with the Mewtwo Smash DLC

IIRC, Mojang was cool with Bukkit continuing to be a thing, but one of the people who contributed to Bukkit was grumpy that the Bukkit team because official devs or w/e

MadMAxJr

Someone got mad and demanded they get their bukkit back and go home.

So he fucked it up for everyone

9:55 PM

Yep

MadMAxJr

I've only played Vanilla minecraft. Is Bukkit some kind of extension API?

@MadMAxJr For servers, yes

Serverside extensions, yes

Newly Opened Proposals for Entertainment

@Unionhawk I'd do it

Scale Modeling

Proposed Q&A site for all hobbyists interested in RC/scale modeling, from static display to operational models. This includes design, construction, diorama, painting and finishing and display aspects, as well as operation and setup techniques of working models.

Currently in definition.

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment Yay, the reboot!

Blem

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment Will i be able to ask questions about working modles in the scale 1:1?

@Blem That's not really a model, then.

@Frank Why did it need a reboot?

i totally misread one of the questions as "how do i remove the nubs from my games?"

10:09 PM

For those that followed last time- Expanded reboot of scale modeling: area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/82797/scale-modeling/…

@OrigamiRobot It was a year old, and they close proposals at that point.

Oops. I'm 4 minutes late. Sorry all.

@JohnP Totally on board!

@OrigamiRobot - Additionally, the early scope of the proposal was vastly more limited.

I see

10:13 PM

@JohnP I've already followed and reproposed my question from the old one :)

@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment cc @JasonBerkan and others who had followed the old one. @SaintWacko?

djsmiley2k

hmmmm you get models which are larger than 1:1 tho

:/

SaintWacko

@Frank Nope, closest I come to scale modeling is building model rockets

@KevinvanderVelden Thanks! I'm going to be more aggressive about advertising and promoting this time, I let the old one just kind of "exist".

@SaintWacko - That is totally on topic. I build rockets too.

@Frank did your job in here at least =p

10:14 PM

@djsmiley2k Eh?

SaintWacko

@JohnP Oh, really? What size engines?

(Not meant in a negative way =p)

I seriously want this proposal to succeed. I want a Gunpla.SE

Even if it won't be purely dedicated to that.

@SaintWacko Any. From A up through the FAA clearance level. If you can build/model/operate it, I can foresee it being on topic.

Because @Jin will add stuff for it when it graduates.

10:15 PM

@SaintWacko Oh, as far as the building, I only go up to the D/E range. I don't have ambitions for the larger size.

fredley

1940s cartoon

I feel like the "scale" part of the title will make people assume things like rockets aren't on topic, but at the same time I don't have a good alternative suggestion.

@OrigamiRobot We tried Model Hobbyist, where model rockets would naturally fall into the scope, I think.

someone Bat Signaled me?

@Jin Hair Signal*

@Frank I like that better.

10:19 PM

@OrigamiRobot my hair is very long again

@Jin We rebooted the Scale Modelling site.

You should join.

@Jin <3

@Frank link?

And give us an awesome gunpla themed site.

Woo!

@Frank finally. hlj.com/product/BAN994873/Gun

@Jin Looks like one I would like.

Did you see my Destiny paint job?

@Frank - James Jenkins won't be pleased :p

@Frank no

@Frank - If you have any questions left, ask about testing flight worthiness in a rocket before launch so we can show it as being on topic.

How do you test flight worthiness in a model rocket without launching? - That got 10 upvotes on the last proposal.
