@Unionhawk You seem even crankier than me.

Unionhawk

I forgot my coffee mug

It's not a good day for me

Sterno

The last youngster who was grumpier than me was @Fei, and well know what happened to him!

Unionhawk

Well pray I don't become a mod

You can't go on a mod rampage without being a mod you know

And yeah, iirc, @FEi was younger than me, I think

I guess still is

Kevin van der Velden

I don't know, did either of you travel in time?

Q: How to properly honor a heroic (but not dead) dwarf

So I recently got into Dwarf Fortress. I am only on my second fortresses (my first one died of dehydration as soon as winter came and all the water froze) and my poor dwarfs were recently attacked by a werpanther and I lost 6 dwarfs before the monster was killed. I figured that the dwarf that kil...

dwarf-fortress

top answer is best, however spoilers in it make me :(

Sterno

13:02

Don't fuck around with time travel, or Jean Claude Van Damme, TimeCop, will get you.

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden Well, I mean more in the sense that he didn't cease to exist when he left

In the same sense that the paper robot exists

Wipqozn

@Sterno That was so crazy

and yet hilarious

Sterno

I'm sad that I wasn't here for it.

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn It's hilarious now, but at the time it was pretty fuct

Wipqozn

Poor @Sterno.

Sterno

13:03

I think a lot of transcript must have been deleted because most of it wasn't that bad.

I mean, it wasn't great, but it wasn't awful

Wipqozn

@Unionhawk I'm able to take joy in fucked things

Unionhawk

@Sterno It boiled down to "YEAH, KEEP FLAGGING ME MOTHERFUCKERS" and people did

so a lot of it is deleted

Wipqozn

He started insulting people as well, and just told everyone to fuck off since he was a mod and could do what he wanted

Sterno

I think the context I never got to see is what he said that was so bad that started the flagging

Wipqozn

It was glorious

@Sterno I don't even remember

Private Pansy

13:05

Get 15% off tech purchases of $100 or more on eBay reddit.com/r/GameDeals/comments/38yb5l/… (these guys have been buying gift cards)

Wipqozn

when it happened, I was thinking "I hope this means he loses his diamond an quits the site in shame"

Unionhawk

It was a gamergate thing iirc, probably

Wipqozn

I always hated that guy.

@Unionhawk Sounds likely

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn Aside from the whole gamergate thing that kept coming up, I tend to like most people.

The only one I hate is @Wipqozn, and I'm even lying about that to appease @spugsley

GnomeSlice

what about me

Unionhawk

13:06

Ignore that second part @spugsley

GnomeSlice

@Rapitor music.cosmonostro.com/album/architect

Unionhawk

@GnomeSlice How can I hate the guy who gave us this glorious autocorrection?

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk blunt force trauma to the head? That usually works

Unionhawk

So you're saying if @GnomeSlice punched me in the face I'd hate him?

I'm confused

What are you talking about

Kevin van der Velden

Wait, you didn't say forget

That's a different thing

Unionhawk

13:12

I mean, if @GnomeSlice punched me I'd probably deserve it. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would travel all the way to Ohio to punch a guy for no reason.

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk if he did, i hope he takes the bus

Sterno

I mean, if you want someone to punch you, I'm only like 90 minutes away.

GnomeSlice

I don't think I've ever punched anybody with intent to actually cause harm in my entire life

Maybe, I used to have rage issues when I was a lot younger.

Chippies

I punch people to heal their stupidity all the time

GnomeSlice

Now it's like impossible to make me mad enough to want to hurt you

Chippies

13:13

No harm intended!

GnomeSlice

I'll talk shit to you, but I won't really try to do any harm

Unionhawk

Today in Lifehacks rooms:

chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/24232

GnomeSlice

I'm surprised Snacks in a Place isn't already a thing

I googled it and it's not

Unionhawk

Isn't that just SuperUser but only allowing lifehacks?

Kevin van der Velden

Probably

GodEmperorDune

13:15

i would think its a room full of keyboard shortcuts

fredley

@Unionhawk PrettyBadUser

@GodEmperorDune More like "put an iPhone in a cardboard tube, you just saved $50 on speakers!"

Chippies

@fredley that's already available on LifeHacks though

GnomeSlice

Chippies

unless we rename LifeHacks to LifeHacks-Technology

Unionhawk

It has to be misspelled too

NO

Chippies

13:16

@Unionhawk YES

GnomeSlice

Very first one is cardboard tube speaker.

Unionhawk

LfieHacks is now what I will call lifehacks.se

Starting now

Until I forget

fredley

@GnomeSlice Oldy but a goody

Unionhawk

Which will be the next time I care to mention it

Wipqozn

@Unionhawk I do too, but he was an asshole.

fredley

13:16

@Unionhawk Make it an autocorrect

Unionhawk

Which may be never

Wipqozn

I like @GnomeSlice.

GnomeSlice

The laptop charger opening a bottle is the dumbest thing I've ever seen

Unionhawk

@fredley No

GnomeSlice

Good way to ruin your laptop charger's connection points

Unionhawk

13:17

@Wipqozn Meh

GodEmperorDune

LFIEHACK: STOP TALKING ABOUT LFIEHACKS

best lfiehack is using scuba gear to get crumbs out of a keyboard

Kevin van der Velden

@GnomeSlice yeah, seriously. If you need a bottle opener grab pretty much any dumb thing

Unionhawk

Annoying him entertained me immensely

Kevin van der Velden

Up to and including another bottle

fredley

@GodEmperorDune I use a keyboard to get crumbs out of my scuba gear

Unionhawk

13:18

It was like my prime directive in life

fredley

grabs @KevinvanderVelden

GodEmperorDune

@fredley now that's a proper lfiehack

Unionhawk

@fredley "Can you open this bottle for me m8?" - using @KevinvanderVelden as a bottle opener

Kevin van der Velden

@fredley uuh, hands @fredley a keychain bottleopener

Unionhawk

@fredley WORST MOD

fredley

13:19

@KevinvanderVelden Your method works

GnomeSlice

#lifehack

originaluser

@KevinvanderVelden Not a lfiehack, -1

Unionhawk

LFIEHACK: IF YOU CAN'T DO A THING, ASK YOUR BUDDY TO DO IT FOR YOU

Kevin van der Velden

@originaluser Correction: Not a lfiehack, +9001

GnomeSlice

Unionhawk

13:20

@fredley I did say I would refer to the site as lfiehacks, so I'm still good

GnomeSlice

My boss just texted and said my shift was moved to 17:00 so I have time to watch all these again now

but I don't waaaaaant to

Yuuki

Whooo, we did it! Uwe Boll has quit Hollywood!

Unionhawk

Whoo!

Who?

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki grats

@Unionhawk director of shitty game adapation movies

Yuuki

@Unionhawk Terrible director of terrible films.

Unionhawk

13:21

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sterno

@GnomeSlice This is a misleading title, because about half of them he declares to be okay. WHICH IS NOT DEBUNKING

fredley

@uni your current avatar looks too much like one of @ori's terrible avatars

Yuuki

Many of them game adaptations, yes.

fredley

Not new @ori, old @ori

GnomeSlice

@Sterno Yeah true.

Unionhawk

13:21

@fredley YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM

Yuuki

fuck you all

Unionhawk

I WILL murder YOU

good thing he can't touch gravatar

fredley

13:22

Wow, while modabusing @uni, I found a bug

Yuuki

In other news, I'm interested in this movie:

The Martian | Official Trailer [HD] | 20th Century FOX

►

Unionhawk

Can you not change my name or something?

Yuuki

Yay, more space movies.

Although, this one is based on a popular book, so not necessarily space movie because space is cool.

Unionhawk

I can't change my name again for a month or so iirc

GnomeSlice

@Sterno Even the ones that work though are still dumb and funny to watch

Unionhawk

Meanwhile, in modabuse

GnomeSlice

Why would you even try that

Kevin van der Velden

Because it's a lfiehack!

fredley

@GnomeSlice For internet lols

GodEmperorDune

13:27

@Yuuki i'm surprised they haven't done the red mars, blue mars, green mars series yet

but yeah, that trailer looks good

Unionhawk

@fredley reproducing

I don't know why it has 2 uploaded images

Because you uploaded one?

fredley

@Unionhawk Probably

Unionhawk

So your modabuse broke SE

good job

well done

Wipqozn

Pretty sure the only solution is to delete @Unionhawks account

I want to go home and play Xenonauts.

GodEmperorDune

@Wipqozn play xcom

Wipqozn

13:30

Need to kill me some aliens

@GodEmperorDune Xenonauts is better than XCOM

GodEmperorDune

lies

Yuuki

United Passions (the FIFA movie) made a grand total of $600 this box office weekend.

Yes, six hundred.

Unionhawk

Wat

As in, because one americans don't care about soccer and now two people actively don't like fifa?

Private Pansy

That's about... a quarter of a theater?

Yuuki

With the limited release, they raked in a box office record of ~$67 per theatre.

Unionhawk

13:32

@Yuuki record low, more like, amirite

(I'm probably right)

originaluser

Clearly FIFA should have been bribing people to see the movie

Unionhawk

Also, in case you guys want me to explain the unikitty avatar, I was going to make @Unikitty my SFF account because it's still @Uni. Geddit? I was going to do this in time for movie night but I didn't make the movie anyway so

originaluser

No, I don't get it. Please elaborate

fredley

@uni on hawk

Unionhawk

@originaluser WELL TOO BAD

@Chippies Want to try Battlemass 2? I played against the AI yesterday and it was a lot better than I was expecting for free

Chippies

@GnomeSlice yeah, sure

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk I approve of the @Unikitty initiative, you should totally do that

GnomeSlice

I thought it was going to be a Greed Corp clone but it's pretty different

Unionhawk

13:38

@KevinvanderVelden I messed it up, so I can't until later this month.

Kevin van der Velden

@Chippies Well. Maybe the lobby server isn't up any more

fredley

@uni sorry for removing your ability to change your avatar

Unionhawk

Q: What is the significance of 1/1/1753 in SQL Server?

Why 1753? What do they have against 1752? My great great great great great great great grandfather would be very offended.

@fredley I have gravatar.

I use gravatar.

fredley

@Unionhawk But I can't modabuse that!

MBraedley

Today is the first day back on a different project, and my supervisor for the project is out sick. I therefore have no work package. Fun times.

Unionhawk

@fredley So you only removed your ability to change my avatar!

:D

this is great news

fredley

D:

I'm sure I can modabuse my way out of this one

GnomeSlice

@fredley icomoon.io

Unionhawk

SCORE ONE FOR NOT MOD ABUSE

Not Mod Abuse: 0, Mod Abuse: I lost count + 1

No, you were pretty much told that your power of changing users avatars is not a thing

So, that's a point for not mod abuse

Yuuki

Terraria's coming to Wii U and 3DS.

fredley

@Unionhawk But I modabused the score

StrixVaria

@uni brb sciencing your profile

Unionhawk

No goddammit

StrixVaria

13:50

@fredley led me to believe that I couldn't edit the avatar of someone who used Gravatar, but he was wrong. I can't change your Gravatar, but I can still make you use a different source for your profile picture!

Modabuse prevails again.

Kevin van der Velden

Poor @Uni, always the test subject of GLORIOUS MOD ABUSE

StrixVaria

Interestingly, I couldn't pick the triforce picture; I had to pick this weird square quadruped who may have been a horse or cat, but was definitely pink.

fredley

@StrixVaria unikitten

Unionhawk

@StrixVaria I didn't even see the triforce, so either you or @TimPost fixed it

Yuuki

@Unionhawk The moment you were waiting for:

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: FIFA Challenge - Bud light Lime, Adidas, McDonalds

►

fredley

13:52

@Unionhawk modabused it

Unionhawk

@fredley Fixed

StrixVaria

@Unionhawk If by "fixed" you mean clicking the triforce actually clicks the weird pink kitten thing, I guess so.

Unionhawk

@StrixVaria I don't even see the triforce anymore

fredley

Meanwhile, @uni

StrixVaria

@Unionhawk That actually sounds like a better user experience than I had.

Unionhawk

13:53

@StrixVaria Originally, I had the bug. Now, I do not.

fredley

Triforce confirmed gone

Yuuki

> The next day he was diagnosed with type one diabetes, stage three throat cancer, and trench foot.

@Yuuki well, thanks for posting that right after I finished watching the crap quality one

Yuuki

13:56

@Chippies I didn't find it until I finished watching the c--p quality one so we're about even there.

StrixVaria

Wait a second. Uploading custom avatars for users is not supposed to be a supported mod activity? I'm being oppressed :(

Chippies

@Yuuki NO! I blame you!

Unionhawk

@StrixVaria NO IT'S NOT

fredley

@StrixVaria But, but... the modabuse!

Chippies

what if you delete all the other avatars and have to upload a new one?

Kevin van der Velden

13:58

@fredley Yes! The mods are being abused! Someone think of the poor mods who are being abused by not being allowed to do their proper modabusing!

fredley

Can someone flag something?

Unionhawk

@fredley Chat?

fredley

preferably spam

Unionhawk

Or

fredley

main site

StrixVaria

13:58

@Chippies There's a default gravatar procedurally generated.

fredley

And not a comment

Chippies

@StrixVaria can that be deleted temporarily?

fredley

@Chippies No. See procedurally generated.

StrixVaria

@Chippies No.
