@Unionhawk Zeldathon? Someone beat the 10k donation from the 5 night at Freddy's guy?
> There is actually quite a bit to Terraria and this post just gives you a very high level highlight.
And that's why it's too broad.
@Frank The post just hits the 'progression' points. the 'gear up' parts are left to the user's imagination
@James I get that.
But there's no way to properly answer the question.
@Frank Um.. I thought I just did?

Those are the challenges in the game in generally accepted levels of incresing difficulty
You summarized. Incompletely.
Fine
You even said yourself that you ignored gear entirely.

Q: Will my Rust character differ if not using family sharing?

PaedowI downloaded Rust from the shared library of a friend. As I enter the game I see that I have a black character. I'm no racist but I absolutely hate my character with that skin tone. So the question is: Will my character differ when I buy the game and play it over my own account?

Let me go remove those words of there are tons of things to do in terraria besides boss progression
00:06
@James Yes, and therein lies the problem.
@Frank I lied, I am not removing it :) The question asked about the stages of the game.. that is what that list is.
Does it cover the game in its entirety? Nope.. But it does answer the question which is in my opinion answerable, what are the stages of this game.
4 mins ago, by Frank
You summarized. Incompletely.
The fact that there is even an in-game person you can get 'Whats the next stage' from is proof that its answerable to me.
I just then dumped out a summary of what he will guide you through.
As a general rule, questions that ask for guides don't work very well.
@Frank Just works out in this case it seems.
00:08
They're too vague to even present a problem.
Making answers too general to be very useful.
@James I would entirely disagree with that assessment.
@Frank As you have already made clear. Its up to the community.
@James Indeed. So why are we even bothering to argue over this?
No clue :D
I'm 12 and what is this

Hearthstone makin' me real mad
It's a fun game but having no cards in a cardgame is a very frustrating experience
There's this new game mode that is supposed to be just goofy fun. Last week it was using preconstructed decks. This week it's constructed
00:53
@twobugs I did some shenanigans yesterday.
I went Shaman, used Rockbiter Weapon, attacked my opponent's hero, and then conceded.
All on the first turn.
You monster
I really like Hearthstone but the RNG aspects are kinda frustrating, as are the crafting mechanics
@twobugs I just needed to do 2 damage for my daily quest.
Haha, I've done that before too
Just play a game where I only care about dailies
Got it done and gave him a confusing win.
When should I stop getting the basic packs and start getting the Gnomes and Goblins packs?
I don't really know. I still buy classic packs because I need every card ever
Arena is good if you win, but it only rewards G&G packs

Q: Steve will only move backwards on Xbox 360

ScottyRWhen I run the game he starts walking backwards. I can move him in any direction other than fowards. I changers the camera view to see if there was abnormal, but he is fine in crouch or standing. New on Xbox so any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hello bridge. Do you like nostalgia? Do you like incredible music? Well then, I have a link for you.
@GnomeSlice I guess I should make a copy of this now then.
@GnomeSlice That doesn't surprise me. Grooveshark went down not that long ago, but it may still take a while before soundcloud goes anywhere
That is seriously the best thing I've ever heard on that site, though.
neilcicierega is the best
user15026
But if soundcloud goes down how will my friend upload recordings of him reading bedtime stories for me and others to listen to?
@GnomeSlice You mean my todo list could get shorter? :o
@TimStone THIS WAS YOUR PLAN ALL ALONG
01:36
@Ktash soundcloud is a very different situation from Grooveshark.
Laziness does almost always pay off for me. It really shouldn't, but it does.
Groove sharks whole model was basically illegal from the get go.
Sound cloud just has a problem with very large amounts of insufficiently 'moderated' UGC
Rihanna x Theme Hospital
Maybe that would be entertaining if I'd ever heard of Theme Hospital.
As it stands it's just awful.
01:38
It could still drive them out of business, sure, but it'd be because they can't afford to run a scrubbing operation on the level of a YouTube. without the pirated content, if they could find a way to remove it, they still have a thriving, viable business.
@LessPop_MoreFizz True, but the distinction is one that is unfortunately probably not enough to save it unless they can go with the Youtube defense (which I doubt they have the money to do). Also, if they have no deal with that many companies, there isn't really a good way for them to make too much money because that is a big chunk of artists and songs
Without pirated content, by contrast, Grooveshark is basically just a domain name.
Well, looks like we were saying the same thing there lol
It works too well
01:39
@LessPop_MoreFizz It sucks that they could have to shut down because they just don't have the resources to remove certain content.
Point is, Grooveshark is completely irrelevant and not at all instructive about whatever problems soundcloud might have.
'omg these scary companies made grooveshark go away and now they're going to make soundcloud go away'
It's like saying that because Napster was sued out of existence, there's no way the iTunes Store is going to survive.
which is dumb
the main thing though is that soundcloud is going to have a hell of a time cleaning up their content if somebody decides to make something of this
Grooveshark was literally engaging in piracy. Soundcloud is not.
01:41
if they can't do it... they might have to shut down?
ANYWAY, I have things I need to do, but click that erykah badu / roots link because it's really really great.
"Luna," you ask, "how were you able to escape from the moon?" Until my return, the Elements of Harmony's banishment key was only 56-bit DES.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I mean this is okay, I'm not a big fan of live performances because they never sound as nice as studio recordings.
Somebody mashed MLP and infosec together, and the result is ridiculous
"Then why did it take you 1000 years to escape?" Let's see YOU brute-force DES with a moonrock-based finite state machine.
what's infosec
01:48
Somebody ripped off the brilliant Swift on Security and it isn't nearly as good the second time around more like.
@GnomeSlice Information security
@PrivatePansy Oh that is glorious.
is that like a movie or something?
@GnomeSlice No, it's a career field.
Securing information.

A: What are the various upgradeable attributes?

RebusmindI'm the developer of SwapQuest and will gladly answer your question. The icons are (from top to bottom): Poison: Damages the enemy/hero every few seconds for a short amount of time Paralysis: Prevents the enemy/hero from attacking or moving from time to time Confusion: Sometimes the enemy hits ...

eeeeeee
@GnomeSlice Is the answer right?
Seems to be.
Also I can't imagine somebody taking the time to find out the dev's real name and posting pretending to be him
my fuck I forgot how just incredible 4Mat is

@GnomeSlice Was the info on those icons really just available by clicking the big giant ? at the top there?

Q: Is there a way to rename bots?

ZackariasBishopOn Chivalry Medieval Warfare for pc; Is there a way to name or rename bots that can be played with offline? Similar to how one can rename bots on Counter Strike?

So Bungie apologized for the Red Bull campaign.
@Ktash Walk into the room with your ps4 in it with your ps3 controller in hand.. hit buttons.. let us know how it goes :D
They are now offering the digital content of the collectors edition for $20.
><
02:32
@James Well, it would probably need pairing :P But that doesn't work, but I was hoping for a) more info and b) if possible, how (update? add-on? work-around?)
Haha Is that info in the question and I missed it?
Is this more of a 'Is it possible to pair my ps3 remote with the ps4?'
And FYI I believe its a No, they are not compatible.

Q: Can I use my PS3 remote control on my PS4

KtashSo I just got a shiny brand new PS4 and it's all exciting. And my PS3 will likely still be around, but it may get relegated to the second room, which means I'd love to be able to use my PS4 for Netflix and the like. Will my PS3 remote work on my PS4?

Well, I can't actually remember how to pair the system and remote, so I left out the trying for fear of humiliation and ridicule
A quick search turned up no, but the last source I could find was in 2013-ish so I figured that may have changed with an update or something
These are... interesting adjectives
02:42
@Yuuki you know who else had a dog named Checkers...
I don't know why he was so worried about police then, he's not a crook

Q: How do I meet Oracle at the clock tower?

splattered bitsI'm at the clock tower, parked at the glowing white "Here's the objective, dummy!" icon and nothing is happening. I've searched all over the clock tower and can't find Oracle. How do I get inside the clock tower to meet Oracle? I'm "stuck" doing side missions until then.

Hm, my son has gotten into the habit of not waking up until noon and then staying up until 2 am or later. I blame @Sterno.
It is...not ideal

Dialysis is quite like the post office
(not me, waiting for outpatients appt)
You come in, get your ticket, and wait for your number to be called out
Is there something wrong with your kidney?
Has karma not yet been appeased?
@PrivatePansy that's an oddly vague question?
@private no, but the part of the hospital you end up in is the same
In medicine, dialysis (from Greek dialusis,"διάλυσις", meaning dissolution, dia, meaning through, and lysis, meaning loosening or splitting) is a process for removing waste and excess water from the blood, and is used primarily as an artificial replacement for lost kidney function in people with kidney failure. Dialysis may be used for those with an acute disturbance in kidney function (acute kidney injury, previously acute renal failure), or progressive but chronically worsening kidney function—a state known as chronic kidney disease stage 5 (previously chronic renal failure or end-stage renal...
08:12
I know what dialysis is
Then why did you consider the question odd?
I just haven't completely woken up yet
it seems that it takes some time for the "foreign language" and "chat parser" bits of my brain to kick in
@tereško context: I had ball surgery a while ago. Search transcript for a wince-by-wince account.

My linux dev server is downloading updates at 2-5 kBps. 15-40 kbps. Why so slow?
Hmmmm, could be the upstream server's fault
Check where its trying to download from
Have you tried looking at some server fault.SE question before going there ?
@PrivatePansy No, it is on my end of the network. This was merely a veiled complaint about internet speeds in the office.
Ah, hahaha
Wow that's slow
Font Awesome has icons for nearly everything under the sun
but a ruler?
12:46
Let's not be ridiculous
@twobugs Or, let's be ridiculous
I like my option better.
@Unionhawk Okay. I'd like a ruler icon.
I mean, it has icons for the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire
Huh, interesting. I guess nobody has requested for one?
That's all I can think of, unless whoever maintains it has an irrational hatred of rulers
Or possibly rational, for all I know
It's just kind of annoying because if we use icons I think they should all be from the same set so they have consistent visual design
so I need to find another icon set or, heaven forbid, make my own
and I am not an artist.
There's a service that lets you customize icon fonts
12:55
I'm check those out, thanks!
Man, I just got an update email about FFXI. After nearly 15 years, that game is still truckin'.
Really? I thought the servers went down?
Doesn't look like it. I think they're planning to wind down eventually, though.
That game deserves a glorious send-off. It kept Square afloat during some tough times. It's the most financially successful Final Fantasy title to date.
