@PrivatePansy youtube-dl is clearly the solution.
the rep graph is projected into the future I see
Naah, stack overflow is just prescient
(I did have 6,010 rep points, then a user was removed and I lost 10 reps)
(but that's no fun)
@KevinvanderVelden It's okay, I got to enjoy my top 6% 6,000 rep.
wouldn't have otherwise!

Q: Have the Arena Rewards Updated

nickson104Following the Grand Tournament's release, I would like to know whether the arena now rewards Grand Tournament packs in lieu of the previous Goblins & Gnomes Packs that were awarded as prizes

@Rapitor Speaking of people who still exist
yes hi.
@Rapitor Actually are you sure you exist. You wouldn't be the first.
We are open towards the ontologically challenged.
The differently planed. The differently dead.

Q: Terminal velocity table for KSP v1.0>=?

A.LThe KSP wiki presents an interesting table of terminal velocity in Kerbal's atmosphere preceded by an useful advice: You can save fuel by being close to your terminal velocity during ascent. Lower velocity wastes delta-V on gravity, higher is wasted on air resistance: | Altitude (m) | Appro...

probably
@badp I thought everyone was @PrivatePansy.
@RonanForman Yes. That's why we're so open.
@badp But then why do you even need to ask, you know they're not.
Also we aren't @PrivatePansy, just a product of his demon-self's trickery
12:32
My mistake.
@badp we don't discriminate against zombies? Cool
which really posits the question: what does it really mean to "exist", in common parlance?
No things really exist, but more things don't exist more equally than others.
It's easier to just forget about the whole thing and carry on until @PrivatePansy's true-self gets half a clue.
So long as his perceived-self keeps clinging to his waifu, we should be fine.
@KevinvanderVelden I did tell you multiple times I was dead inside...
Well, I do know that I exist...
Ooh is that what you meant, that makes sense
That's different from zombies though
... maybe ...
12:37
@KevinvanderVelden Nah, it isn't, but the piece fits in with this particular puzzle.
... I mean, the moment I stop thinking I probably will stop existing
@PrivatePansy You should by now be fully aware that you doesn't really exist the way you think you do.
So please don't show me any Friday videos
Simply never stop thinking about how your whole life has been your own fat phony lie.
12:49
Wheee... Made an order for fuel for the heating, because it is cheap right now. It's going to cost me €1823.
I do expect to have enough for ~2 years though.
"cheap"
Solid fuel heating?
Nope. Mazout (no clue if that's a correct english word)
pellet?
as in small wood chips
I guess that would count as "solid fuel" though. Kinda.
Nope, no pellet, some sort of oil derivate thing. It's used to keep the boiler running.
12:58
(Apparently in one of the side games Neptune becomes a motorbike. I wonder if she runs on "solid" diesel pudding "fuel".)

Q: Bioshock Infinite Loophole (SPOILERS!)

Bruce WMy friend just finished the game and started asking me all these questions I had never thought of before. He can't seem to understand how only Comstock is dead because in the game before being killed he says "I'm both.". My friend thinks Both booker and Comstock are dead and if he was killed at t...

Woo! I thought some code I wrote a few years back had a relatively serious memory leak, but looking at it again today, it seems I was wrong.
@badp a lot cheaper than last year. I bought 2k liters last year, that cost me ~€1.6k, now I ordered 4k and it's going to cost me ~€1.8k. so I'd call that cheap.
@Arperum maximum overbargain
@badp Mostly low oil prices.
13:04
(tiled picture of the $1 bill vibrating and zooming wildly under yellow-red blinking spinning Impact "SUCH VALUE" text)
@Arperum check your veggie privilege
@Arperum Heh, that lamb looks more like a cat, though.
@5pike That might be intentional and point at an eventual other problem with games nowadays.
@5pike It says baa, therefore is a lamb.
Every animal can be classified by what sound it makes!
13:15
gives @MBraedley a parrot
@KevinvanderVelden passes an eurasian jay
Obviously parrots are either some weird kind of human, an astromech droid, or some weird chainsaw animal
@MBraedley This logic dictates that Belgium has at least two kinds of flying cats.
13:30
At least one of them is the type of flying cat that is attached to a drone
they may be both the type of flying cat that is attached to a drone if the sound the drones make are sufficiently distinct.
@badp that would be a third one
If it buzzes like a flying cat and it flies like a flying cat...
...then it is a duck.
13:50
Or an accursed turtle.
14:08
@Yuuki lulz
@Yuuki Neat, looks like they're actually doing cross-gen support right
That is, not up-porting.
The facial expressions are very good.
I'm excited for it. Looks like a cool game.
Whoo, we're out of the The Spirits Within uncanny valley!
14:17
@Yuuki looks so good that i know my vidcard won't handle it :S
@Yuuki i read that literally 30 seconds ago
@GodEmperorDune I've had it open since yesterday.
@Yuuki don't ruin my confirmation bias

Q: Mcpe Servers Floating In Mid Air

Pokemon_Girl_xI asked this before, and I got results but none of it helped sorry ! It was working for a few months actually but since I got a new wifi booster, it all stopped I don't know why, but I think it's the wifi boosters problem. I have a good name ( Poke_Girl_x please don't take it on me lol ) and whe...

I thought this was taking place in Russia?
Maybe it's like MGS3 Russia
With jungles and snakes and whatnot
Me too, @Sterno. Me too.
And I think I need to go get Until Dawn
Now I really want to play video games since I decided to work from home today, but I can't really afford to do that because deadlines.
Oh, good thing I didn't pick that up.
I would have just called in sick, but deadlines.
14:45
@Sterno just wait until dawn to play it
Until Dawn actually sounds kind of interesting. I was skeptical, but people are saying good stuff.
It seems to be real divisive, though. Some people are loving it and others are slamming it.
@twobugs You know what else people are slamming?
@Wipqozn THAT'S THE DUMBEST THING YOU'VE SAID TODAY
@Wipqozn urmom?
@Sterno That's what I was going to say.
@Wipqozn You?
14:48
Oh Eclipse
and your "Failed to show an error message" error messages
Everybody is arguing newer games and I'm just sitting here going 'Oh my god, King of Dragon Pass is on Android!' ...
You'd think this was the stuff of shitposts
but no, it is very real
Since I never finished POE, I think at this point I just need to wait for all the expansion packs and whatnot before bothering. particularly if they're going to insert the new content into the middle of the game
Remember when Path of Exile was cool?
14:51
No, I don't. I tried to play it and always found it super boring.
Hm, Pirate Warriors 3 is out today. I'll probably wait for a big sale because 1/2 were fun but underwhelming bargain bin games.
This has the potential for drama:

Q: How to fix location error using Win10 Edge to surf ingress.com/intel?

Christopher Karl JohansenHow do I fix a location error while browsing http://ingress.com/intel with Win10 Edge? It shows me about 5 miles west of my real location. This happens on my Lenovo X220i just upgraded from Win7 and my wife's Lenovo K450e upgraded from Win8.1. Neither system has GPS, but Opera, Chrome, and Firefo...

Because it's about a (very necessary, and official) website associated with the game, rather than the game itself
Well, 2 was. 1 was pretty much a cheap cash-in. 2 at least tried.

Q: Technic Attack of the B Team starts then dissapears after joining any server

Shawn D.Heres the log: ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // I let you down. Sorry :( Time: 8/25/15 10:43 AM Description: Ticking screen java.lang.RuntimeException: Unknown character ' ' in 'C:/Users/ShawnD/AppData/Roaming/.technic/modpacks/attack-of-the-bteam/saves/mapwriter_mp_worlds/mgreloaded_mcali...

@twobugs Agreed
If that gets drama that's stupid.
14:53
@Sterno I still need to finish it too
@GraceNote It already has
You might as well give up, wait for everything, and restart. LIKE A PRO
It got one comment that got OBLITERATED by SOUND LOGICALS
STOP RUINING THE DRAMA FOR ME
WE NEED DRAMA
B and C xor F-diesis
Also DA MODS have already rejected migration flags on it.
14:55
cc @Frank
So it's all in good hands
NERD
Did you just say that @fredley has good hands?
@Sterno Something something .
Thank god for those da mods who do all da work
DRAMA STATUS: [x] NOT DRAMA [ ] DRAMA
14:56
Probably not as delicate and gorgeous as mine but they're pretty good hands.
Woooo! I got some sort of a vague second hand "Edge has css-issues" report. Going to be fun to debug that. (I do not want a win10 install.)
I've seen 10 flags on the site yesterday night. I don't remember the last time the flag list was 10 long
@Arperum I'm going to be doing the upgrade, just not yet. Too early in my opinion.
@badp That's like, real olden times.
If you'd made @Wipqozn mod, you wouldn't have had 10 flags to deal with.
Probably more like 20
14:57
@Yuuki I'll probably upgrade too at some point, but if I have to fix css issues in a win10 browser, things are going to get interesting.
@Sterno We could start our own game of Calvinball.
Last season, the Turtles took the championship, winning the final with a score of 3-Octopus in the tenty-third quarter.
@KevinvanderVelden Probably, but so much work to set it all up.
ow my head
Uhhoh
What did you do?
Alestorm is good stuff.
Aaaanyway, hometime
@MadMAxJr Yes! Always a party on liveshows too.
15:13
Whoo, Matlab.
I fell in love with Alestorm when I saw the Keelhauled video. A pirate with a keytar.
Matlab is great how dare you
@Unionhawk That's neither an affirmation nor condemnation.
HOW DARE YOU
I'm taking an image processing course and this is going to be the first time I'll be working with Matlab.
15:15
Heh
@Yuuki I'm sorry
@MadMAxJr You should see their backdrops on shows. They have one that is straight from monkey island, and one with two huge bananaducks.
what the fuck is a bananaduck
I mean if you've got a sufficiently strong IT background, Matlab probably won't rot your brain as much as it would otherwise
probably
@Unionhawk It's a banana and a duck without whitespace in between.
15:16
Of course how could I be so naive
@Arperum It's raining beer, hallelujah?
@badp I can't remember a beer rain from that show, just water from a hose under a burning sun.
@Arperum that sounds pleasant, but not an ale storm.
But what if it's just a French typhoon?
A le storm?
15:19
Double article
I'm afraid I'm going to have to dock points for that.
Sounds like something those wacky French would do.
Or it's a southern hailstorm
@badp But @Uni's the one with the boat, not you.
'alestorm
Yes the French would dock you points for that
15:20
And I'm not sure his boat is named "points".
@SaintWacko Halestorm is a completely different band. they are pretty good too.
Are you claiming "points" is a wrong name for a boat? because @Unionhawk is wrong about all sort of things
@Arperum Halestorm is awesome
@SaintWacko Yup. I've seen them twice. I'm pretty sure @Yuuki would like them too.
Shalestorm sounds like it would be considerably more painful.
15:21
@Arperum I've never seen them :(
They were playing at the county fair last year, but I didn't make it
At any rate, I will take note of the peculiar qualities that the alest orms possess
@SaintWacko They are from the US, so I assume they are touring more over there?
They came to Belgium three times in the last two years.
also the french would be more likely to say "alles! torms!"
AND I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT DOUBLE LETTERS FROM ENGLISH SPEAKERS
Talking about good music and Lzzy Hale.
Lindsey Stirling is good for relaxing to.

Proposed Q&A site for experienced psychedelic explorers and those who have seen the horizon and beyond

Currently in definition.

@fredley The ladies love'em?
@fredley what bad luck has happened to you now? :o
@Wipqozn Everybody loves them
Protip: spend ~10 years learning piano (preferably as a child) for excellent hands

Q: What happens if you leave in between rounds of Snipers Vs Stunters (GTAV)

Ashwin GuptaLike the title says, let's say I make it up to round 3 of a snipers vs Stunters game. If I left the game right after that. Would I still get the cash that I've earned in the previous rounds?gta (I know that I'll get bad sport rep.)

Q: What counts as incest?

mikeTheLiarI've been breeding my Vault Dwellers together pretty indiscriminately, and as such I really have no idea what their family trees look like. I don't have much to go on other than their last name, which is a imperfect metric at best. Not infrequently I'll put two dwellers into living quarters only ...

Q: Run a command when a player first joins a server

Popey GilbertAs the title suggests, I'm looking for a way to run a command on every player who joins the server for the first time. Is this possible with a vanilla CS:GO server, or is there a plugin required to do this? For example: NewPlayer is joining the Terrorist force Server: /freeze <player> 10 New...

16:27
@Rapitor ouch
Not as bad as ISIS intentionally wrecking ancient ruins though
user15026
@Rapitor yikes. Kid's family is likely mortified.
@AshleyNunn the museum were super good sports about it if the article is correct. no charges or anything
user15026
Yeah, that was nice to see
user15026
And they managed to restore it, as well
16:43
Hooray for August! August is the month where half the trains run.
I'm so glad I got three weeks off this August
That's like... calculations At least a 130% increase in Commute from Hell potential!
An appropriate way to spice things up for the miniseason
Things might get really boring later although we kinda did have a pretty big public-transportation-induced wtf moment in A'dam with @KevinvanderVelden
@Wipqozn You're one of the few people to run for mod, not win, and then not quit.
2
Is that what the cool kids call it
I'm not sure if that means you're doing it right, or doing it wrong.
16:52
@Rapitor Still not as bad as the teenager that purposefully carved his name into Egyptian hieroglyphics.
Also, WTF Canada. You're behind Ashley Madison? I thought the US had a monopoly on sleazy stuff.
Nope, Ontario
@Sterno It was too sleazy even for us.
@Sterno someone did an analysis on how many zipcodes in america had noone with an ashley madison account. There were 3 zipcodes
3
> A former employee sued Avid Life, saying she had developed debilitating wrist pain, insomnia and anxiety while writing 1,000 fake profiles for a Brazilian version of Ashley Madison, according to court records.
16:54
@KevinvanderVelden Probably because no one lives there.
@TimStone pretty much
Ears of corn registering on Ashley Madison
@KevinvanderVelden now now zipcodes in the US don't work like they do in the NL. In fact I'm not aware of other zipcode systems that are basically civic-number accurate
Yeah Ashley Madison is Canadian, we also have the most people on it
Ontario in particular, I heard, is really bad
"Life's too short, have a doxx"
17:20
@badp I'm aware, they're much larger regions for one
Yeah postal code areas here are tiny
(For reference: A house in the netherlands is identifiable by only the zip code and the house number)
user15026
@GnomeSlice Some are - but when you get more rural, they get bigger.
No street name?
17:25
Not needed
@AshleyNunn yeah that's true
I mean, you usually write both in case one of them is made illegible (and lots of people don't realize the zipcode is all that's needed)
So there's no duplicate house numbers in any postal code?
1 street = 1 zipcode
That's what I think he's saying
I certainly have seen plenty of ads for their zipcode lottery
@GnomeSlice none at all
@badp well, certain streets have multiple zipcodes actually
My postal code encompasses five houses, so a house number and the postal code is all you need.
Rome is split in 72 zip codes for an average of 36k souls each, which is actually way less than I expected
user15026
@blartmemes Not everything that is NAA needs to be brought in here. Generally, flagging is enough unless it is something offensive that needs perhaps a quicker boot (although offensive stuff is deleted by Community after it gets a certain number of flags)
@badp so people are complaining that without a sign saying "THIS4BOYZ" or "THIS4GURLZ" they can't figure out what toys/clothes they want?
people are hilarious(ly dumb)
17:35
@AshleyNunn A'ight then.
The middling city I used to live in way too many years ago has 46k people in it
@Chippies I think more accurately they're complaining that if they want to get a toy for their nephew, they want to go to the "boy's toy section" rather than a "generic toy section" so that they can save themselves 3 seconds of brainwork and 2 aisles of walking
Man I miss Apulia.
I bought a Wii U last night, hoping my daughter would enjoy it.
@Sterno eh, I stay by my statement - people are hilarious/dumb
17:36
She did donuts in Mario Kart 8 for about a minute and then got bored and quit
The Wii U is great.
Mario Kart is pretty boring anyway
Truer words have definitely been said
it's fun for a while with other people
but it's boring as balls in single player
probably shouldn't have played mario kart. nintendo land would've been good fun
17:37
also, two player campaign has a massive flaw with the trophies/stars
Well, we tried some Dora game too, where you basically just move forward and jump
was swiper in it
the only way to get 3 stars is if 1 player gets 1st in all races, which means if you wants the stars, and the 2nd player is winning, s/he has to let 1st player pass
Maybe eventually, but not in the 3 minutes we played before she got stuck on a rock and wanted me to play teh game instead of her
which means if you want stars, it's best to play alone
@Sterno how old is she?
mario kart is certainly not a game for very little kids, since it has a learning curve
mariokart isn't for adults either. gets violent
> Diablo III patch 2.3.0 is now live in the Americas for PC!
now if only the season 4 was live too...
Mario Kart isn't for humans. People have been killed over blue shells.
@Yuuki if you're 1st, always carry that trumpet box thing
17:41
@Chippies bit hard when item box only gives coins
@Rapitor if you're 2nd/3rd, always carry that trumpet box thing ,unless you know you're not good enough to get 1st
I've destroyed many blue shells with it
it's possible to avoid blue shell with a mushroom boost, but the timing has to be so precise, it's too unreliable
idk what it was about MK8, but I couldn't get the hang of it (granted i didnt play very long), but i played Mk7 even less and still wreck faces in that
the control physics were just wonky
In other news, I've been trying my luck at programming in Brainfuck today.
I actually find it quite fun.
that doesn't sound like a fun language
17:45
@Chippies 3
@Chippies The only stars I want are chat stars.
@Sterno that does seem a bit young for mario kart, imho
I've seen adults who have trouble with it
Three is pretty young for video games.
@JasonBerkan I started at around five, so.
I was hoping just the "steer the cart" part would work.
Tonight I'll try one that's just swimming in the ocean petting dolphins or something
she'd need something simple, that can be done at her own pace
17:48
toddlers don't really have the attention span for games.
simple and mindless games like fruit ninja would probably be your best bet.
@Rapitor I have autism, would that have had anything to do with me playing games at five years?
or an incremental that has a lot of stuff going on
@blartmemes no?
@Rapitor I mean, with what you said about attention spans and everything.
I "played" video games when I was around 4. by "played" I mean was tails while my older brother was sonic
@blartmemes 5 year olds certainly have more attention span than 3 year olds, as well as more understanding of what's going on on the screen
17:52
@Chippies To be fair though, I can't remember if I was 5 or 4 back then.
a 3 yr old probably doesn't know much about whats going on in the game, they see a thing. and hitting buttons seems to make it do something, that's the extent of their focus/attention
My kids would play a tiny bit up until they were 5, but often they were just frustrated by their inability to control the game. Around 6 or so is when they started playing more.
my wife cousin's 4 year old daughter has been playing games on an ipad since she was 3
idk what she played when she was 3, but I know now she plays stuff like, find objects and whatnot
those point'n'click mystery games
There's a story somewhere of a guy who only let his kid play really hard video games growing up
> The Metal Gear series has always delivered complex plots, with unexpected twists and revelations altering your perception of people and events you thought you understood.
There are people who thought they understood the plots of Metal Gear games?
17:53
It ends with his kid being a monster who eats Spelunky for breakfast by like age 7.
@twobugs that sounds like abuse.

Q: Register in korean League of Legends

mekkanizerI don't have a korean cellphone number. The other way besides cellphone number is ahyipin. I have requested one from ITFTennis guys, but they haven't replied yet. The registartion page asks for some Foreign No. Which I can't guess how to get. Anyone knowing anything, help please. P.S. This method...

@Rapitor "But Dad, I just did!" "No, my son, you only beat the first half"
@Sterno stuff happens, there's robots.
@twobugs I don't think it was "hard" per se, he just forced his son to play video games in the order they were created. And old quarter eating video games were hard.
17:55
@Sterno The overarching plot isn't that crazy. It's just all the details which are bonkers (because Kojima is amazing)
@JasonBerkan Yeah, but I thought there was some element to him focusing on hard games? Because his kid became insanely good at video games as a result
I'm not entirely convinced what games you played determines your skill
@Lazers2.0 I think this is illegal.
@Rapitor Well yeah, but if you played really hard games I think you would internalize certain techniques that would have some general applications
i suppose playing hard games could improve your coordination at a young age. but surviving battletoads probably has nothing to do with your fps ability
17:58
Amazon has the new Metal Gear for $59.96 for a physical copy, or $59.99 for a digital copy. OH BOY
I remember reading the article, which made it sound like doing what he did would work with other kids, and thinking of my own kids screaming and crying because they couldn't make Mario walk to the left, and thinking, nope - your kid is special.
Creating a Korean game account usually requires a Korean ID by law.
And I guess Amazon is in the used games market now?
user15026
@Yuuki I'd suspect so, considering all the work they are having to do to get around it....
17:58
@Yuuki very
WHY HAVE I NOT HEARD OF THIS
I remember back when Dragon Ball Online was popular there was a black market for Korean IDs
