> She ended up calling him, they talked it over, and both agreed they overreacted and have made nice. The kid also got his Linux discs back after class.
@RPiAwesomeness You know not everyone knows about Linux, right?
And given our current landscape, there's definitely worries to be had about being trouble for piracy and whatnot.
Given how aggressively companies will pursue litigation for their copyrights.
is someone trying to join the rabbit room right now?
@Ktash I should really see about making those purchases...
Stupid lazy self.
Meh, we've got 3 hours :P
hmm, apparently someone was trying to join, but didn't wait for me to open the room
Well, given the feedback, I'm setting up a second fallover room.
Since each room can only host 10 peeps max.
probably a good idea
19:13
Also, I'm gonna test out the closed caption settings.
On DMA?
Yeah.
I turned it on at one point and it worked fairly well
They were just kinda big when I turned them on for Wreck-It Ralph.
ah, yeah, they aren't small
19:16
@Ktash Yeah, you can change the font size in your account settings.
Also you can change font type, color, text effects, etc.
Nice. That's pretty cool
Hmm is anyone familiar with a game database api?
I'm looking into using Giant Bomb's right now, but I'm not sure if there are any other useful options.
@badp yes. Wr. @Uni is in the house.

Q: Has anyone else had a problem finding Arctic Hares in Assassin's Creed Rogue?

Stan ShunpikeI am playing Assassin's Creed Rogue. For a bunch of the upgrades to the equipment of the protagonist, you need to collect Arctic Hare pelts. But everywhere I go even though on the map it says Arctic Hare, there are never any there. I have been to four different sites and Article Hares are nowhere...

Q: What is MagicAmy probable endgame?

Fredy31I heard of the whole MagicAmy affair in the Hearthstone Esport community, and have a hard time finding out why the guy would even do it. A little overview of the affair: It seems that a korean female player by the name of MagicAmy was not playing Hearthstone herself. She would be on camera whil...

Q: Can I use Logitech Attack 3 (From pc) on Xbox 360

David VazquezI just want to know if I can use my logitech Attack 3 with my Xbox by just plugging it in. Or do I need anyhing extra to make it work? I want it to play Over G Fighters

A woman with a thick Indian accent called me from the "U.S. Government Department of Bureaus" to let me know that I'd been selected to win a $9000 grant.

IT MUST BE MY LUCKY DAY! HERE, TAKE ALL MY PERSONAL INFO AND BANK DETAILS!
I trust you will agree with this assessment, @Sterno? :P
I had to look at the video first
But yeah
Man, I can't believe more people need to flag it. My flag should be the only one needed!
@John GoooD. GOOOOOOOOOOD.

Q: Farming zones are not fully uzed

NakilonI have two 5x5 farming zones, configured mostly for plump helmet. I have ~10 dwarfs with Farming labour enabled and almost ~150 plump helmet seeds. Years are passing, sometimes I have 0 food, but dwarfs use always the same only 19 tiles: How to force them to plant seeds to all 50 tiles?

To be fair, the pickings are pretty darn slim. The 2nd highest voted candidate who hasn't declined is at 4 votes. Most of the people who have taken to hashing out issues on meta either don't want the job, or have opinions that have been poorly received by the rest of the community. This site does not appear to have the necessary leadership to get off the ground and throwing a few diamonds on people's names isn't going to change that. — Sterno 7 secs ago
I'm not trolling. I'm umm...
I'll get back to you when I figure it out
Trolling?
Saying what should be obvious to everyone!
Goddamn. I was just looking through chat backscroll and now I want a gyro
@Sterno dang it! I'd forgotten that. Now I do again :/
@Sterno I'm not sure why you still even care.

Q: What is a compatibility version?

meme scientistSome popular maps on CS:GO have compatibility versions. I am wondering why a map would need compatibility versions whatsoever? What does it mean to need a compatibility version, and what makes it any different from a normal map? I have a very bad computer but I can still run CS:GO on low settings...

@Frank Boredom
@Sterno Go browse Meta.SO or Meta.SE, then.
Can't. I have gyros to order
Oh snap, the gyro place doesn't deliver anymore. This is the worst day ever
@Sterno You're just stating the obvious.
20:24
@Sterno rip
Also, if weather works like it always does, your roads are terrible and you're a jerk
@Yuuki Yes. I was probably overreacting myself. It's just so annoying when people think Microsoft is the one and only thing that can exist as an OS and thus obviously everything else is illegal or useless.
Oh hey, 3x yearling
@Unionhawk Congrats.
My annual silver badge came in
@Ktash current status: very untimely internet outage
They're very rare but somehow they happen without fail on Saturdays
...when there is no open call centre to scream at and I doubt anybody is on call to fix it
20:33
@RPiAwesomeness Until I have enough money to get a second machine, I'm gonna be running Windows. I like the ease of gaming too much to try install Linux.
@Yuuki Linux has a fairly good chunk of games actually. However, I do understand your point of still using Windows.
"a fairly good chunk"<Windows gaming
And for the most part, is a smaller subset
Seriously though, last I heard (and that was a few months ago), 1/3 of the entire Steam library is on Linux - including most of the heavily played ones like CS:GO, Dota 2, etc.
Granted, a lot of AAA titles aren't on Linux - but that'll change eventually
Or at least, it should.
Yeah, but I hear a lot of horror stories about Linux drivers and whatnot.
There must be some ancient secret about Linux gaming that only reveals itself after you try it for so long
20:39
@Unionhawk Not really. I just installed Steam and downloaded/installed the games & drivers for my GPU and I was flying along just fine
Granted, I play a very limited group of games, but those ran just fine for me.

Q: Archeage Is merchantship faster?

LoneWOLFsJust a quick question. Is the merchantship costing 400 Guilda Stars faster than other ships? Thanks

@Yuuki have you ever used a NIX system before (aside from android or playstation or iphone or osx) ?
@Yuuki Yes, those can be a pain, but it's getting better. Like I said. Linux isn't at the plug 'n play level that Windows has simply because it was for the uber-nerdy for quite some time and companies simply didn't try.
But that's changing and Linux, especially with distros like Elementary OS & Linux Mint, is becoming far better.
trick with Linux and BSD systems is that, if something doesnt work, there is a really good change that you can make it work
if something doesn't work on windows, you can only hope that there is a patch you can install
.. and if you are using Apple stuff .. well .. there is nothing you can do about it
^ that. Granted, you need to know what you're doing, but there are tons of people who can help you.
20:44
=)
The real (only) question: Will it run Monster Hunter Online/Frontier when it comes to the West?
Who knows
also, from my past experience (last time I played games on FreeBSD was in 2007th) when you actually manage to make a game run on it, which everyone tells you is not possible, it feels awesome
I've tried running Ubuntu just as a fileserver.
The amount of effort I had to go through to try to make it work was absolutely unreal.
After a week of poking, I said fuck it, and installed Windows. Problem solved.
@Frank o.O Strange. Normally Ubuntu is just fine. When did you try this/what was the problem?
20:48
@Frank how much previous experience did you have with linux ?
Seven years ago, and from what I recall, it was something about installing the right thing to make shares available to Windows.
@tereško A couple months of college classes.
@Frank Seven years ago
It's got quite a bit better in 7 years
.. also, I would like to note that Ubuntu is primarily a "desktop distro"
@RPiAwesomeness And? What incentive do I have to try it again?
20:49
it's kinda shit when it comes to servers
@tereško And Windows does it all. What point is there to trying Linux? Of any version?
@Frank It's faster, more extensible, & more secure.
@RPiAwesomeness And ALL of it requires a higher level of technical expertise to make it happen.
he probably just wanted a samba server
The barrier to entry for Linux is too high for general usage.
5
20:50
... which 7 years ago was kinda messy
@Frank maybe, but the rewards are worth it
@badp Well hopefully it fixes itself some times soon. Still got an hour before the first show
@Frank For server, duh. Setting up a server is not a normal end-user task. And it's not as bad as you would think nowadays, especially if you have help.
and it happens to be quite an educational experience
@tereško What rewards? Endless headaches to make it play nice with Windows?
@RPiAwesomeness Why should I need help in the first place?
That's the point I'm making, here.
@Frank Because you're used to Windows. Of course Linux is going to be harder to use at first because you're not used to the way it works.
20:53
@Frank automation, security, options
2 mins ago, by Frank
@RPiAwesomeness And ALL of it requires a higher level of technical expertise to make it happen.
sigh
No, it doesn't.
@RPiAwesomeness it kinda does
@RPiAwesomeness Dude, I know my way around a computer.
I know what to do.
it needs more computer skill than browsing facebook
20:54
@tereško ...
Linux might be better now, but it still requires a much more finicky level of, "It has to be done this way", than Windows does.
> Horror stories from my last job:

Migrating and upgrading a database
"You have three days to move the company"
Mini-horror: with Useless Office Politics dude
Moving the company into it's permanent location
Pretty sure @Frank knows more than just browsing Facebook.
And it's a bit rude to assume that's all he knows when he says "I know my way around a computer".
@Yuuki sorry .. I tend to assume that everyone knows less than me about computers .. it's and occupational disease, professional help is being sought
20:58
@Ktash logged onto the support website, ssl_error_illegal_parameter_alert
I require a table to flip
time to open a beer
Time to be stupid, it's an hour until movie night starts, isn't it?
Never mind. This is going nowhere and never will go anywhere. Microsoft is good for just dropping into place and having it "just work". If you want performance and security, you're going to use Linux. I admit that Linux is not at the level of ease that Windows has, but it's getting there. With the lack of cooperation from manufacturers and programmers it's incredible that it's got this far. Just because something is hard doesn't mean it's bad. And I'm leaving it at that.
user15026
....okay, I am not going to touch that.
@RPiAwesomeness then again, one is missing a shitload of features .. like being able to use SSH
21:04
Okay, let's drop this and move on to something more pressing.
Movie Night begins in one hour!
user15026
Haircut took 4 hours because google maps decided I should just be able to traipse through backyards, so I got lost and took wrong buses and it was sadness
@RPiAwesomeness Windows does 99% of what Linux does and it does so much easier. Linux is for those that need/want that extra 1%
@AshleyNunn Noooo
@Yuuki I agree
user15026
But hey, I got lunch along the way, and at the one bus terminal a lady from the one tea shop was giving away free tea
@Chippies that's just completely wrong
21:04
No. Stop it. No more OS talk. MOVIE NIGHT BEGINS IN ONE HOUR.
user15026
so that was okay.
@Chippies Errr. That's debatable, but I'm not going to do so.
@RPiAwesomeness Well, I'm not either, since I seem to be late to the party :P
@Chippies :)
TFW IT'S NIGHT OF THE FINAL DAY AND YOU REALIZE YOU HAVENT BEING IN REVERSE SONG OF TIME MODE
FUUU
21:06
Wut
I'm going to have to clean up this temple in another cycle.
Goddammit
@Yuuki I can't have movie night I might as well enjoy the flames
@Yuuki Can you explain to me how this movie night thing works?
Check your working internets privilege
This website is so broken even internet explorer refuses to go there
are there any good PS4 game reviewers on youtube ?
21:07
@tereško PS4 has games? HA!
@badp That's a joke, right? :)
I'm sorry, that's not relevant nowadays
user15026
Can someone throw me a link to the movie night thing so I can see if it works for me?
Order 1886 in particular
@AshleyNunn Same here
21:08
@RPiAwesomeness connecting to this site has been blocked because it would require an insecure fallback to SSL 3.0
@Chippies hell, I don't know. I don't even have a TV.
@badp Ouch. Outdated site much?
user15026
At some point I should find my headset and plug it back in so I have sound again....
user15026
(I know where it is, I am just tired and lazy)
21:12
Yeah
cc @KevinvanderVelden @Yuuki @AshleyNunn
I have a suggestion for the next time this is a thing
user15026
@Arperum Ah, something to make me get my headset :P
21:13
Halestorm is awesome.
@PopeyGilbert k. It says something about needing permission?
Hm, I got that too. I think it'll open once the person starts streaming
(This is not Alestorm, that's a completely different band)
user15026
@Arperum Halestorm makes me SO happy
SEKRIT SUGGESTUON (you will see)
21:14
@AshleyNunn Gonna see them in March.
user15026
@Arperum awesome. I've not seen them live, but I would like to
THIS IS ALL AWFUL AND TERRIBLE AND SUCH BUT I AM ONLY A HUMAN WHO NEEDS ACCESS TO THE AWFUL AND TERRIBLE WEBSITE
@badp What page?
@RPiAwesomeness their support website
21:15
Ah, rabbit's?
Oh, nvr mind
No, bugzilla
RIP @BADP
March is getting some nice lists of shows planned. Halestorm, Paganfest XL (8 bands on my birthday), Ensiferum and there should be some Angeli di Pietra show too that month(the bandmembers told me they are doing a show the 3rd, but can't find info)
@AshleyNunn I didn't know them until I saw them live. It was awesome.
@badp Mother of god
Who does this?
my ISP
I will have to fall back on the iPad 1.
user15026
@Arperum I've known about them for a while, they're great.
21:18
@Arperum heh, I thought it was Mayhem (band) - Halestorm (song title) and was rather confused seeing that you cc'd @AshleyNunn for it
It should be old and outdated enough not to care about how awful and terrible it really is.
@AshleyNunn They are.
user15026
@Chippies Not knowing what you mean means I don't know why I would be confusing :P
Because I'm terrified by my hunch
@AshleyNunn Mayhem is a very black metal band
user15026
21:19
@Chippies Ah, not super my thing then :)
@badp On the plus side if you're submitting a support request I suspect you should be able to find administrative account details out in the open somewhere and you can probably reassign your own ticket priority to immediate!
doesn't seem like your type of music :P
user15026
black metal is not really so much, no
tbh, it's not a super thing for many people at all :)
Our ADSL ISP is Wind, but we get service through our phone line which is TIM.
21:19
@Arperum Paganfest...ummm
I've had my time with black metal, not so much nowadays though
@Chippies If I'm pinging @KevinvanderVelden and @Yuuki, clean vocals are guaranteed.
Today we inquired about a TIM ADSL offer. I lost interest immediately when I heard "7 mega"
@Arperum Noted.
user15026
21:20
@Arperum Okay, that sounds like an excellent March, and a very good birthday :P
...but my father thought that the price was great.
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness ??
@AshleyNunn Just my initial reaction when I saw the words Pagan. Not something I'd want to go to.
user15026
@Chippies It's not something I've ever really been intro'd into in any real way, but my tentative pokings made me go "not so much I don't think"
@RPiAwesomeness did you know Christmas is a pagan holiday?
user15026
21:20
@RPiAwesomeness So don't go?
I am terrified by the idea that the lady there somehow decided to activate that offer
@Chippies Yes.
user15026
Not sure why it needed to be mentioned
@AshleyNunn Yup! :D
@RPiAwesomeness Wintersun + Turisas + Korpiklaani + Heidevolk + Grailknights + Finsterforst + Obscurity + Frosttide
21:20
which would mean no internet for 2 weeks + half-speed internet when it does comes back, without warning or login details
HamStare @RPiAwesomeness
@AshleyNunn Neither am I.
@badp Huh, I didn't know I offered ADSL
user15026
@badp eeeeergh
Lol @ "HamStare @Wandang" being the top SwiftKey suggestion
21:21
@AshleyNunn You know how those people are
"OH YOU KINDA SOUNDED LIKE YOU PERHAPS WANTED IT SO WE MADE IT HAPPEN ARE YOU NOT HAPPY"
@AshleyNunn The vocals are quite like razors to ears, it's a taste very difficult to acquire
"WHY ARE YOU NOT SATISIFIED"
user15026
@badp cracks up Yeah, that's pretty much how it is
@RPiAwesomeness Why not? There is nothing religious about it at all, it's just a name of a semi-yearly tour thing. Just like Heidenfest :p
user15026
@badp HOW CAN YOU NOT BE HAPPY WITH OUR EXCELLENT OFFER OF AMAZING JOY
21:22
@Arperum Yeah. I don't know why I commented
so... to iOS FIVE
POSSIBLY MY SAVIOUR
user15026
@Chippies Yeah, that would make me a florpsicle
You know things are dire when iOS 5 is your last hope
Why is this the top result for duckduckgo when searching for hamster???
the guitar tracks tend to be quite nice, albeit often the quality of sound is quite bad, which seems to be a signature thing with pure black metal...
@RPiAwesomeness I'd say searching for hamster pornography addiction symptoms is one of the symptoms
(waits to get flagged for saying words)
@RPiAwesomeness And even if it was religious, a real Christian festival would've caused more of a frown from me. I'm mostly Atheistic, with a very minor kind of "if Gods exist they'd be something like the old norse gods, a group of assholes laughing like crazy at humanity"
user15026
@Chippies NOT WORDS NO NOT THOSE NOT THOSE EVIL WORDS
user15026
hits you with a dictionary
21:25
@AshleyNunn You are making all the words evil :(
(bleeped-language warning for the earlier part of that video)
Wooo! Saved from the steam weekend deal by already owning the game!
btw, when is next steam sale ?
rip boss key
@tereško depends on how big of a sale you're talking about
user15026
21:27
@Arperum I have banned myself from buying new games for a while
there's small sales all the time
i know that
and there's sales on steam key reseller sites all the time as well
@AshleyNunn I sorta did too, except I got myself Monster Hunter 4 ultimate.
those reseller site can fuck you over .. bigtime
21:28
@tereško clearly you're using wrong sites
@tereško Anything on this list is as legit as it gets
room is open for those looking to join for the movie night. rabb.it/ktash
GMG is probably the best reseller there is with a 20-25% off coupon available at pretty much all times
user15026
@Ktash So my knocking worked :D
@AshleyNunn That song I linked, pay attention to 1:11, it contains a windows error message "ping" sound.
It did
21:30
which usually can be applied to already decent sales
@Ktash Dammit, forgot that too.
Also, we'll have an overflow room setup too, but I think @Yuuki is working on that, so just a moment there
Is there something I did not forget today?
GODDAMMIT IPAD DO YOUR MAGIC
user15026
Alright, had to leave the room for a bit because the talking was making me bananas
21:33
@RPiAwesomeness Do you need me to explain things or has someone done so in my absence?
@AshleyNunn You can mute it by hover over the person's icon and clicking on the little mic
user15026
@Ktash oh, hallelujah
@Yuuki I figured it out on me own :D Thanks anyways
When does the movie start again? (I'm basically asking if I still have time for a hunt in MH4U)
Oh right, ti's saturday
I completely forgot about that
21:37
@Arperum 20 minutes or so
Hrm. I keep getting disconnected...
6 mins ago, by Arperum
@Ktash Dammit, forgot that too.
@Ktash Your mom's 2- I should empty the kitty litter-0 minutes or so!
@Ktash Should be enough if I pick a simple one.
It's Guardians of the Galaxy, right?
21:38
Yeah!
@Wipqozn Mhmm.
hmm ... should I watch again Babylon 5 ?

Q: How can I remove blueprints from my inventory in "Dust: An Elysian Tail" that doesn't cost me money?

braveterryI've been accumulating blueprints and they have begun to clutter my inventory. I'd like to get rid of them, but crafting them costs me the crafting materials plus the value of the item. Is there some way to get rid of blueprints that I have missed?

user15026
Someone please tell me when the godawful noise is gone
@AshleyNunn Gone.
user15026
21:44
@Yuuki Thank god, I was losing my mind
/me is sads
Can someone let me know when the actual movie starts?
user15026
I might catch a later showing
I might never catch any showing :'(
WELL THEN ENJOY YOUR DAMN MOVIE I DID NOT WANT TO WATCH IT ANYWAY
:'(
@badp Same here :(
We can be not watchers together - if that's not weird.
21:55
@badp @RPiAwesomeness I am willing to get in trouble with the law and Steam Broadcast it.
@Yuuki That'd be cool.
Granted, I have no idea how to do that either :P
@RPiAwesomeness I'd have to figure it out too.

Q: How many days are there in the Papers Please story?

numarothExactly what it says in the title: How many days are there in the Papers Please story? I want to know how much I have left.

@Yuuki I just don't have the internets.
22:03
Weeeel. Screw it.
I'm on mobile data right now.
My internet is too slow.
I HATE MY INTERNET
WHAT A WONDERFUL WEEKEND
I FEEL ALREADY REFRESHED AND READY FOR A NEW PRODUCTIVE WEEK AT WORK
user15026
@badp It sounds like one :(
@Yuuki I'd imagine set VLC as a steam game and profit

In what universe does shepherd's pie have KETCHUP in it

I just dont like ketchup.
Alton Brown agrees so we know I must be right.

Q: Steam Mic Issues

AlexSteam says that it has detected my headset and when I test the microphone it works fine. When I get into a game nothing changes with my settings but no one can hear me. I have no clue what the problem is because by the looks of it there is no problem. Steam has no clue about this issue and it's r...

22:27
What even is a shepherd's pie?
user15026
@OrigamiRobot ground beef mixed with veggies (peas, carrots, onions, etc) in a gravyish stuff then you throw mashed potatoes on top
That sounds like everything I've always wanted
Like chicken pot pie with beef instead of chicken
Oh! Movie night tonight? :o
@Yuuki is it still happening? :o
user15026
@OrigamiRobot yeah, and not pie crust
user15026
It is delicious and it is going to be my dinner
22:30
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah, it's going on right now.
user15026
and I am going to make cheesy mash for it
Where can I join? =p
Hrm, so like beef stew?
@KevinvanderVelden Here.
Wait, it's already started? I thought it wasn't until another half-hour.
And why does it want my microphone?
22:32
@Pvt.Grichmann There'll be another showing 10-15 minutes after this one ends if you want to watch from the beginning.
@Pvt.Grichmann There's a voice chat, but disable it.
@Yuuki Ah, okay. Thanks!
LIFE HACK! shit in your hand and throw it at people
/CC @Sterno
So apparently the kickstarter for Drift Stage shows up with a payee of 'Fart Battl' on the credit statement.
My mom thought it was hilarious.
LIFE HACK! blink every few seconds to keep your eyes moist
hahaha
> So...here's the story. We had some issues initially creating the project on Kickstarter, and as a result we ended up having to create a second project and copy/paste the content from the first attempt prior to deleting it. Kickstarter won't allow you to have multiple projects with the same name (even if they're unpublished drafts), so when we created the second one, we had to temporarily give it a different name until we deleted the first draft.
> I have no idea what his source of inspiration was, but for some reason Charles decided to temporarily name the second draft something like "Fart Battle II: The Deuce" (I don't even remember exactly what it was). That name must have stuck in Kickstarter's database even after the front-facing title was changed to Drift Stage.
user15026
22:45
I love when there is a new Foodspin article :D
Well we're at 10 people now. If anyone else tries to join in for this showing, ping me
otherwise there will be more showings in a bit

Ah, the study of human mating and family systems.
gaming ones are boring
I should probably be using meta profiles
Mine says stuff about incompatibility
@Unionhawk also it's different every time apparently
lol?
k yeah meta profiles are way better
I give up
I cropped it down, but the link still points to the uncropped version
I don't even
