Q: High values of Heroes of the Storm MMR?

Ame no KenshiSince pages like Hotslogs.com and Hero.gg started tracking MMR by evaluating Replays I wondered: What are REALISTIC high MMR Numbers? I saw some people with 0 losses and around 100 Wins with around 4,5k MMR. That seemed a little unrealistic. If they just uploaded their Wins, their MMR would rise ...

I believe this question falls outside of our scope. Food preservation is not something that needs a lifehack. There are common solutions people have used for preserving food for thousands of years. Remember, we're not EverydayLiving.SE, we're Lifehacks.SE — Wipqozn 10 secs ago
Man, I'm totally going to be making a Lifehacks meta post at som epoint about that last part:
> Remember, we're not EverydayLiving.SE, we're Lifehacks.SE
Skimming over the questions - not many would fit the term "Lifehack"
Skimming some more - it really feels like yahoo.answers ...
@5pike Yes
10:44
Oh man, I'm still totally tired from yesterdays exam.
@5pike Which exam>
First 2 parts of my final apprenticeship examination.
First part was to design a database for a library.
Second part was to make a web interface to make searches in a small database, containing some info about music (like interpret, song title, release date, etc.)
Those were not really the hard parts.
The hard part was writing a documentation, without knowing what the hell you should write into it.
And then also test what you have coded.
Though I don't know what they expected us to test in the first part.
The only thing they said was "make a truth-table"...
11:02
Oh right!
I bought my first cow!
I named it @Frank.
Bought? You get your first one for free IIRC
@5pike Yeah,but I didn't buy.
So this is the first cow I bought.
I figured the wording would throw people off though.
Alright.
Point is, though...
I milk @Frank everyday.
Must... not... star
11:05
I can't even pretend that wasn't intentional.
@Wipqozn do you also brush @Frank every day?
I mean, you could, but I don't think you've ever lied more obviously than that
@5pike Yes. I brush him good.
@Wipqozn Good. Proper care of @Frank is important.
11:06
@Frank is a delicate creature.
@Wipqozn You can even make @Frank pregnant for free at the traders.
So you can have a little @Frank.
@Sterno I'm glad we decided to wait, because it's never going to be less Alpha now. That's one purchase I'm really happy I didn't make.

Q: I've impregnated a cow. How long until it gives birth?

WipqoznMy cow is pregnant, but the game doesn't include any instructions for pregnancy, so I'm not sure how long it takes for the cow to give birth. Furthermore, how long after birth does it take the baby cow to produce milk?

You're welcome. – user3389 Nov 16 '12 at 21:14

NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR TURTLECOW BABIES. – user9983 Nov 16 '12 at 21:15
I think one of those was @OrigamiRobot... but who is the other one?
FEiecher?
Or whatever his name is spelled
@Wipqozn You could ask the same question again for SoS
@KevinvanderVelden Oh maybe
> user56
That was @ArdaXi
11:13
@KevinvanderVelden FEichinger. Your save function is broken.
NOPE!
It was @MarkTrapp.
RIP @MarkTrapp
I remember when I was super excited for that.
It wasa good movie, but not at all like what those early trailers made it seem like it would be.

5 Centimeters Per Second (Japanese: 秒速5センチメートル, Hepburn: Byōsoku Go Senchimētoru) is a 2007 Japanese animated feature film by Makoto Shinkai. The film was finished on 22 January 2007. The first part of the film was released on Yahoo! Japan as streaming video to Yahoo! Premium members from 16 to 19 February 2007. On 3 March 2007, the full length featured film had its theatrical premiere at Cinema Rise in Shibuya, Tokyo. The film consists of three segments: Cherry Blossom (桜花抄, Ōkashō), Cosmonaut (コスモナウト, Kosumonauto), and 5 Centimeters per Second (秒速5センチメートル, Byōsoku 5 Senchimētoru), totaling about...
I forgot abut this movie.
Now i need to watch it again, and then be sad.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (時をかける少女, Toki o Kakeru Shōjo) is a 2006 Japanese-animated science fiction romance film produced by Madhouse, directed by Mamoru Hosoda and written by Satoko Okudera. Released by Kadokawa Herald Pictures, the film is a loose sequel to the 1967 novel of the same name by Yasutaka Tsutsui and shares the basic premise of a young girl who gains the power of time travel, but with a different story and characters than the novel. Riisa Naka voices Makoto Konno, a teenager who inadvertently gains a mysterious power. She learns from her aunt Kazuko Yoshiyama—protagonist to...
That looks good. I might watch that over the weekend.
@KevinvanderVelden Ask them if a videotape does work in a DVD player.
@5pike heh. But I, fortunately, don't have direct contact with them so =p
@Yuuki Are your other sheep's named Honor, Victory and Destiny?
Also, @Johe yes I am. Not sure what's so mind blowing about it
11:43
A thread all about the ending of a movie, so putting spoilers around everything is just stupid.
Yeah, that's really odd. I would just add [SPOILERS] to the title of the thread, so it's even more obvious.
Anyways, if you folks haven't watched 5cms/secon you should, so that you can cry and then hate me.
I have watched it. It's not nearly as sad as you make it out to be
It is beautiful though, and I second the recommendation
@Wipqozn What makes you think that we don't already hate you?

Social Media

Proposed Q&A site for social media users and those who are curious about social media of all kinds.

Currently in definition.

@5pike Hate me more.
@LessPop_MoreFizz How ironic.
@Wipqozn I'll try.
Although, if he gets the new kidney, success kid will need to make a new success kid.
@Wipqozn like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife?
Also, according to Success Kid's mom, he ate the sand in his fist in the famous photo.
11:55
I've only got one down-vote left for SO today. Going to have to restrain myself and save it for something especially terrible.
I need to find something new for breakfast, that I can bring myself.
Maybe I'll just have fruit.
I can buy fruit in bulk from costco.
A boiled egg + fruit maybe.
That actually sounds fantastic.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm not familiar with Uber. tl;dr on why being bought by them is a bad thing?
They are literally every bad bro-startup stereotype rolled into one.
@Frank Star Ocean 5 has recently been announced (iirc you're a huge star ocean fan)
@LessPop_MoreFizz That sounds horrible.
A while back, they called out a journalist who was criticizing them... By proving that they could stalk her every move in the middle of a PowerPoint presentation in front of a whole lot of people.
Like hundreds.
12:06
@LessPop_MoreFizz that's... that's not calling out, that's a borderline threat
@LessPop_MoreFizz ...................wow
I get really strong rape vibes from that.
@KevinvanderVelden indeed it is. Search up Uber and the terms "Sarah Lacey" or "God Mode" if you'd like to hate them some more.
There's also the whole moving into new markets where their business model is not legal and just bludgeoning local governments into submission... All while their "independent contractor" drivers are left to deal with getting their vehicles impounded by police on a regular basis because Uber is DISRUPTING MARKETS.
Ottawa is having a big fight with Uber
They've also gotten in trouble with the national federation for the blind for not taking responsibility when their drivers do shit like shoving a guide dog in the trunk.
user15026
Jesus, that's terrible.
12:11
Oh, and the fact that they've devoted operations to sabotaging competitors by having employees order and cancel rides en masse to tie up their reservation systems.
user15026
The more I hear about Uber, the more I really hope they never gain ground here.
What the hell
They are literally Ayn Rand's wet dream of a tech startup.
They just flat out ignore any law that doesn't suit them. And they're getting away with it.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Aaaand you just made every right-wing politician love them.
@Yuuki I'm fairly sure the big pockets of the taxi companies can persuade them away from their love of uber
user15026
12:16
@LessPop_MoreFizz that's the fucking scary part.
What really kills me though, above everything else, is that they've actually built a better mouse trap. Like, the service and product they offer is innovative and works great and literally has the potential to reshape entire industries. But the company is run by monsters.
@KevinvanderVelden what big taxi companies?
user15026
@lesspop Yeah, I want it to work because it makes a lot of sense but the idiocy behind the curtain is too great.
Uber is the big taxi company.
user15026
But right now they're a service I am literally afraid to ever consider using.

Q: Does the One-Handed Style talent bonus still work with a shield equipped?

DarthPizzaSimilar to the question Does the Larder Door work with the Two Weapon Style talent?, I was wondering if the One-Handed Style talent bonus still applies when you have a shield equipped in the other hand? The text of One-Handed Style reads: While wielding a single one-handed melee weapon, 20% ...

12:17
@LessPop_MoreFizz eeh true. Though it's not like you need to pay politicians a lot of money
The industry they are moving into is highly fragmented and dominated by independent owner operators and local/regional players. Thats part of why they've been so effective. They're the first real national/global taxi conglomerate to exist.
A few thousand a vote in some cases if I recall
@KevinvanderVelden only more than Uber does.
Hopefully, we fix outstanding bugs and roll out driverless cars soon and tank their business.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Not everywhere, I think they're pretty much banned everywhere in Germany by now

Q: Does party disposition affect priest and paladin powers of party members too?

DarthPizzaI know that if you play a priest or a paladin in Pillars of Eternity, then your various dispositions will affect the strength of some of your powers and abilities (Holy Radiance in the case of priests, and Faith and Conviction in the case of Paladins). I was wondering though if the dispositions ...

@MadScientist That doesn't completely stop them though.
@Arperum As far as I remember from some articles, at some point it did stop them and they gave up for now
At least for the part where they use drivers without the necessary qualifications for taxi driving in Germany
@MadScientist Oh, they are/were trying in a couple cities in Belgium too.
I think the government was talking about it over here
Yeah it's illegal in the entire country, they're appeal was rejected
They're appealing that though, cause why not
12:27
@MadScientist yeah NYC is similar - only licensed taxis can take Uber fares at this point.
I think any restrictions that limit the number of taxis should be removed, they're just too easily abused. But I quite like the requirements for insurance, health checks, car checks and professional driving licence we have here
They are outlawed over here, with a fine of 10k per breach, but they still seem to offer services.
my shirt smells like a cruise ship
why is this smell making me think cruise ship
@Arperum see above re: literally a criminal company.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Indeed.
12:30
They should honestly take up robbing banks. They'd clearly get away with it.
@GnomeSlice a cruise ship has a smell?
apparently
@Rapitor Probably smells like luxury and ship.
No clue how luxury would smell though.
@Rapitor did I show you Trail Blue by Aurtas
so damn good
new fav track I think
better than space dads?
12:35
tough call
Man, I wake up to ten pings.
And all because @Wipqozn named his cow funny.

Also, apparently trying to help someone gets me a smartass response, so I don't care anymore.

@Frank I'm planning to name all of my animals after bridge people.
@Frank Also,. that happens to me all the time.
These folks just love pinging me.
@GnomeSlice I'm not sure why you posted this here, because there's a good chance that's going to get flagged.
...For what
I just thought it was funny
Kid is like 10 and loses his shit in front of whoever those people are
12:42
@GnomeSlice Did you link to the wrong video...?
That video is basically just mocking her for having some sort of mental handicap or whatever the term would be.
I'm pretty sure the kid is just nervous.
this answer might be in need of some more upvotes.
12:44
@LessPop_MoreFizz Go out and do something with your life
@GnomeSlice I am waiting for it to stop raining so I can go to work.
You don't have to be there by a certain time?
@Wipqozn The video is most certainly mocking.
@GnomeSlice He has to be everywhere.
Generally outside.
Yeah, @LessPop_MoreFizz is some sort of mapping robot.
That's why he's always traveling over the country and staying in hotels.
@Wipqozn ANCIENT
12:46
> Hero, Sub, Hoagie, Grinder and Wedge
@GnomeSlice Nope, so long as I put in my 40 hours a week, I can work whatever schedule I want; main limitations being, I can't work while it's raining, and have to put in said hours between an hour after sunrise and an hour before sundown.
What are all of those except Sub
@Sterno Just like you! OH BUUUUURRRRNNNN
@GnomeSlice Regionalisms for the same thing.
@LessPop_MoreFizz wut
12:46
I grew up calling that sandwich a Hero, for example.
Lmao Hero?
what
@LessPop_MoreFizz What if it rains for week. What then?
Seriously?
@Wipqozn there is other work I can do. I try to work Sunday/Saturday if needed to make up the hours rather than do that other work because it sucks
NYT is good at analyzing food. They deemed Hillary Clinton's Chipotle order to be "above average". They're my go-to site for food analysis

> The New York term hero is first attested in 1937.[14] The name is sometimes credited to the New York Herald Tribune food writer Clementine Paddleford in the 1930s, but there is no good evidence for this. It is also sometimes claimed that it is related to the gyro, but this is unlikely as the gyro was unknown in the United States until the 1960s, according to some sources.[4]

"Hero" (plural usually heros[15]) remains the prevailing New York City term for most sandwiches on an oblong roll with a generally Italian flavor, in addition to the original described above. Pizzeria menus often inc
@LessPop_MoreFizz wtf it's a Submarine Sandwich
My favorite part of the Chiptole article is that they don't actually know what she ordered, so just make something up
It's shaped like a submarine
@Sterno (ಠ_ಠ)
@GnomeSlice No, it's a Hero.
12:50
that po'boy looks pretty good too
And if you ask a Philadelphian, it's a Hoagie.
is that like a Lugie
And if you ask a Nutmegger, it's a Grinder.

We had a Jersey style sandwich shop here for a while. The owner actually had bread flown in from Jersey because something about what the water there making it taste better
Your country is weird.
Then he had a heart attack and his shop went to shit, but up until then it was delicious
@Sterno you are correct about water.
I thought Jersey was one of those places considered terrible.
@GnomeSlice They're just called "subs" here.
No one ever says "submarine".
12:55
@StrixVaria No on ever calls it that here, either.
I think @GnomeSlice is just a rebel.
yeah i know
subs
@StrixVaria Hero is common enough in North Jersey as well though, last I looked.
The worst people are the ones who say "I'm going to go have a Subway"
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm from central Jersey (which is a thing).
I have heard people call them heroes, but mostly on restaurant menus and not in actual conversation.
@StrixVaria No it isn't. NORTH OR SOUTH, CHOOSE A SIDE.
12:56
@Sterno They're going to give birth to a sandwich shop?
SEEMS LEGIT
@Sterno Fred Black seems like a trustworthy guy to me.
@Sterno I gotta be honest, until I got to the signature I thought the joke was going to be that you were home, and they just never bothered to ring the doorbell.
@Sterno One of my coworkers says that! "I brought a subway for lunch." It is the worst.
@Fluttershy Shun him

@Fluttershy What monster.

@Sterno I've tried explaining the difference to her, but she still does it. "I told my kids I'd bring them a subway for dinner."

@fluttershy that would make me crazy.
@Fluttershy Try thwapping her on the nose with a rolled up newspaper. it works for puppies
@Fluttershy Are you sure she had the 'a' in there. 'I'll bring subway for dinner' doesn't annoy me because I say shit like that all the time
She also pronooncouses the Ls in tortilla, and calls taquitos "ta-qwee-tos."
like i'm gonna go get mcdonald's
@Sterno Or spray with the hose
13:04
@GnomeSlice If the A wasn't in there, it wouldn't bother me. But it was, and always is.
@Fluttershy huehuehue
@Fluttershy ಠ_ಠ
Someone fix my pronounces up there please. I can't edit from mobile, and I don't even know how that happened. <_<
Seriously... What the hell is a prononcouse? And why is my phone saying that it is a real word?

@GnomeSlice Nice.

@Sterno I worked at Subway for three years. The worst people are the ones that would come in and start singing "Five dollar. Five dollar footloooong"
And I am extremely familiar with people that want a Subway for lunch. On more than one occasion I asked if they wanted a drinkway and some chipsway to go with it.

Q: Chat is currently down

PowerlordSo, I tried to get into chat today only to get a connection timeout. I figured it might be my connection, but isup.me is also saying that chat.stackexchange.com is down: . (Note: I added a freehand circle because those are mandatory on Meta.)

Q: Where are the beige pants in GTA V?

ARADPLAUGSeriously. I want them for Franklin, by the way. Not the shorts. Not the cargo pants. Just pants. They exist according to this.

@fredley Lost control there?
@Powerlord I get it
Sometimes a Chrome tab forgets cmd is a thing, and ignores it entirely, even outside the page (e.g. in the url bar). Only thing that fixes it is closing the tab and opening another.
@fredley is that the impossible game in minecraft
13:36
@Rapitor I think so, but how is it being rendered? I literally haven't played Minecraft for years
Have they already done Minecraft-ception?
Or is that still a pipe dream?
The Impossible Game sucks
@fredley being really far away and using wool?
I just realized... last weekend was supposed to be The Bridge game night, wasn't it?
Whoops, I missed it.
@Rapitor Really?
13:37
@Rapitor the box is like rotating though
computercraft(mod) then
@Rapitor Seems too sharp to be wool
but that wouldn't need the massive structure on the left
unless that is something else

So, I think Bloodborne has some of the scariest enemy creatures I've ever seen in a video game.
@Fluttershy and disgusting
@Fluttershy yeah
Amygdala is terrifying
13:54
@Rainbolt I, too, worked at Subway, in the olden times when 6" Cold Cut Combos (not called Cold Cut Trios back then) were $1.79+tax, and when you didn't have to wear gloves to make a sandwich.
@GnomeSlice More or less terrifying than Gaping Dragon?
@Sterno eeew
Gaping Dragon is fuct
@fredley We still washed our hands.
ALSO, WHAT KIND OF MONSTER BUYS SEEDED ORANGES TO SHARE?
@Sterno Didn't they switch back to Cold Cut Combo a few years ago?
@Powerlord I don't know. I'm not a poor college student anymore so I don't eat at Subway now.
Seriously. That thing is terrifying. And it's not even the worst one.
@Fluttershy what is that from?
Apparently it is indeed once again called the Cold Cut Combo
@imafancyman Bloodborne. Though the image is tinier than I thought it'd be.

PROOF THAT OLD IS BETTER
@Fluttershy Eh, that's not so terrifying.
Have you seen Gaping Dragon?
darkbeast paarl is pretty fucked up too
@Fluttershy is that game good? I don't currently have a console that can play it but I'm buying one soon.
@Fluttershy Yeah those guys are scary as fuck
Bloodborne is good
Bloodborne is so good you should buy a PS4 to play it like @Wipqozn did
@Sterno And me
Not so scary.
