@StrixVaria No, that's next years New Year's resolution.
The current one is to refer to @fbueckert as @fbueckert
@Sterno If only this actually pinged him too.
Well, if he changes his name back, it will!
Yay, got my environment working!
@twobugs So you're almost done with your whole project?
Thanks for not installing yourself correctly, ArcGIS Python!
19:03
is it bad form to leave a comment telling people they should accept answers on their previous questions?
@StrixVaria Pretty much! Or rather, now I'm starting the next project of "Formally document the previous project". Luckily I kept my own documentation which I just need to spruce up.
@Dragonrage Personally, I don't think you should refer to previous questions in comments unless they are specifically relevant (e.g. "This other question is related...")
That's simply my opinion, and if they haven't accepted an answer on the newer question you can remind them to accept it there.

Q: I need help with raiding and choosing which troops to train

Carter BrownI need help with raiding and which troops I should use ??i tried all giants, 5 wall breakers 4 giants and the rest archers I don't know what to do

If you leave a comment on a question, they'll get a notification anyway
@twobugs they have their 5 last questions without accepted answers, even though several have answers that completely answer the question. i was wondering if it was bad for to comment on one of those questions to let them know they should accept an answer or state why the answer didnt work for them so the question can be resolved
*form
Don't bother
19:11
New feature to ardaphys: Bady
There used to be a thing called "accept rate", which would display the percentage of questions a user had asked on which they had accepted an answer
Those were good times
They removed that because people kept posting the exact comments you describe
Those were the BEFORETIMES. Back when rainbows were in black and white.
Basically, answer acceptance is entirely up to the asker, and it's entirely OK if they just don't
19:12
Some people just don't accept answers. Yes, it's unfortunate.
@murgatroid99 /eye-twitch
@twobugs I would think that people (esp newer users) would be interested in getting the +2 rep associated with accepting an answer. Maybe they don't know about it.
@TimS. Sure, one comment on one question explaining the feature is fine
@TimS. 2 rep isn't much, for people with 1000 rep nor 1 rep.
just don't bother them if they continue to not accept stuff

Q: ARK: How to make mouse working?

BarnabasMakkayI've just bought ARK on Steam for my MacBook Pro (Mid 2014) and after setting the app to be in fullscreen mode I lost all possible contact with the game. By that I mean I see the main menu, but it's not reacting to mouse or keyboard input. Though I see the mouse and can move it around, it looks l...

@ardaozkal People with 1 rep, that's 200% of their current :)
@TimS. 1 seems small, so does 2
There should be inflation on reps!
For some, sure
%900 inflation seems good to me imho
At 1 rep, 2 rep is also half-way to the first privilege
19:15
Was just a thought, not a proposed solution :)
(math: 2000 rep now is 20000, you start with 10 rep and you get 20 when you accept)
Yeah, I think a polite comment or two is fine. But if someone isn't going to accept an answer, that's their choice
It's like downvoting. Yes, it's good when people leave a constructive and helpful comment about how to improve a post, but it's not required. Enforcing it would not be reasonable
That would also open more opportunities for rep gain sources, +1 rep (+0.1rep of now) for reviews etc.
Economy aside, something like, vote to pick answer would be nice.
@ardaozkal That's called voting
Someone asked a question, it got answered and has a positive score, and the asker has been away for 1 month etc? You'll be able to vote to make it an accepted answer etc.
19:18
In the absence of an accepted answer, the top-voted answer floats to the top, which is exactly what "community-accepted answer" would do
There's literally no reason to have a redundant system with the same imputs and same effect
Even if it gets +50 votes, if it isn't accepted, Community bot will keep bumping it, afaik.
@ardaozkal I'm pretty sure that's false
I agree, I don't think there is any need for a community option to accept an answer. Besides, the accept feature is supposed to be a semi-subjective "this solved my problem best" thing. At least, that's how I understand it.
let me check the guidelines
"accepted answer" is literally defined as "this answer helped the OP the most"
19:20
@murgatroid99 [needs-citation]
@James That is the argument every time someone suggests "community accept" on meta.SE

A: Would it be possible to have a "community accepted" feature?

Robert CartainoThe "accepted answer" feature was never intended to mark which answer is best or even if the answer is correct. It is, simply stated, the answer that the original author found most useful in solving their problem. The people's-choice favorite answer is selected through the voting process. The "...

@James [tag:tag-name]
Accepting doesn't mean it's the best answer, it just means that it worked for the person who asked.
19:22
from the tour page
Awww Yesss :D
@murgatroid99 TBH we should turn it into a different icon a la "It works on my machine" badge
Well cept you provided Citation :)
19:23
@murgatroid99 Figured that post would be useful for @ardaozkal
how does one make those box thingies?

he means one boxing I think

Haha
Yeah I was not sure if he meant the tags or the oneboxing :)
19:30
tfw you do something exactly the way the documentation says to and it doesnt work e.e
@Dragonrage documentation of what?
oh i'm working on developing an app in xamarin. trying to add httpheaders to requests
the documentation says that a class has several public methods, one of which is called headers, but when i use it, it says unknown field headers, but strangely it doesn't throw and error when i try to assign something to it
user4704
Which documentation?
user4704
If you get an error tooltip or red squiggle, but the code compiles, it could just be an issue/bug with the intellisense parsing in Xamarin's IDE.
user4704
19:35
which is not the best
xamarin is hell
woo upvotes
and its not a red squiggle, when i debug it and step through it and hover over the line of code it says Unknown member: Headers
user4704
But it compiles.
19:37
@Dragonrage did you try reinstalling it?
user4704
And runs?
it compiles perfectly fine. it ever autocompleted to headers when i started it
user4704
So it's probably an IDE-related bug in the intellisense parsing.
yep compiles and runs perfectly fine without throwing an error
user4704
Or similar.
19:37
I'd recommend trying it on a different device.
it just doesnt do anything
user4704
Ah.
Maybe the production library versions are different (older?) than the ones intellisense use.
unfortunately i only have one device. i have tried cleaning it and rebuilding, and the simulator
@Dragonrage do you have MSDN by chance?
If you do, just create a VM over azure with your free credits.
19:39
i dont
maybe i should get it? ive just been testing on my iphone 6
and occasionally the simulator from xcode
Oh, you are on Mac!
Did you try checking the lib versions as I stated?
ps. Is your project a Xamarin.iOS project?
If it is universal, try it with Xamarin.Android.

Q: Why can't I login to my google+ account in Minion rush

mcfly softI have 2 devices. On one device I can see 2 buttons to register/login as facebook or google play games. On the other device I can't see these buttons. All the rest is there, only the register buttons are missing. Why ? Any help ?

let me check the lib version real quick. im pretty sure i set it up as universal
let me check though
19:45
This reminds me.. I should see if I can do anything interesting with that build of Win10 for ARM devices like the RasPi.
@Lazers2.0 because google is smart and does not want you sullying your google account with that filth
@MadMAxJr I'm your man on that. Feel free to ping me up if you need help with Windows Universal (development) or Windows 10 for RPi2 (setup and access).
well the lib version appears to be uptodate, there are no updates for anything
@Dragonrage can you try it on an android device/android emu real quick? maybe it is a bug on xamarin.ios itself.
im setting up the project to have a shared api code, but the UI and navigation stuff is all separate
i havent set up the android stuff yet
19:48
Aren't you currently working on API?
> httpheaders to requests
@ardaozkal I cannot parse this sentence.
yea, but i only have the ios ui done
i can setup a small project to test it i guess
Just step through it

MintyMinecraft*I need help re-downloading/finding my Minecraft folder, as I want to find my screenshots folder within that folder.

@ardaozkal wow
arqade is topped-off with immature dicks
3 hours ago, by MadMAxJr
At this rate, we're going to need a flag reason, "I'm pretty sure the asker is under 13 years old and I want their account deleted to see them get upset."
ok, i was checking my setup again. forgot i'm having two separate apps, one for iOS and the other for Android. they are just going to pull from the same dlls for apis.
19:55
@Ohnana I wouldn't say "filled".
i need more coffee, im forgetting things
@StrixVaria i feex?
Well, all you guys are members of Arqade so
@Unionhawk so are you.
OH BUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN
Now I feel immature.
...Now?
19:57
You should
everyone is immature in their own way
2
@Dragonrage It's important to remember this, but not to use it as an excuse. Nobody should strive to be immature.
@ardaozkal You don't need to worry about that for suggested edits. They aren't shown to the public until they're accepted, and the chance that those edits will be accepted is extremely low. Just reject and carry on.
@MBraedley ikno, but they are fun. For another ex, check the edit description gaming.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/167396
19:59
@ardaozkal I wouldn't call that fun.
@ardaozkal OK, I'll admit that second one is hilarious
I don't see how any of those are "fun", but you are welcome to have your own opinions.
@murgatroid99 also read the comments on that for the followup
@ardaozkal wtf is he talking about
20:02
@murgatroid99 more fun than when i see people write "whala!"
@Ohnana Vilkas = character in Skyrim, Voila = something between "done" and "there you go" in french.
@ardaozkal Defacing posts is not fun for the rest of us, it's being a jerk.
@ardaozkal i know. does he think voila is a person
@Ohnana he thinks voila is a typoed viola
@Ohnana yeah, that was the hilarious part.
20:03
It's rejected anyway so
wooooow
The Win10 build for Pi2 will run non-GUI stuff, right/
@MBraedley defacing posts is wrong, but it gives me a chuckle, and tbh if every edit was perfect, there would be no need for edit reviewing.
@ardaozkal sure there would be
That's kind of a non-sequitur. There's a very clear line between a perfect edit and defacing a post.
20:05
> if every edit was perfect
Yes, and it doesn't work as an argument in this case.
@ardaozkal I'm not saying there aren't any funny edits, but you haven't really posted any of those.
knowing that your edit will be reviewed should improve quality on its own, even if it just gets approved
@MBraedley fun is relative, you might not find these fun, I do. I can see why you don't consider these funny edits, and I appreciate/respect it, however, in an other perspective, I still find it fun.
Nobody is saying you can't find these funny, you just seem to want to convince other people and you're not providing very convincing evidence.
20:08
@twobugs I'm not trying to do such thing, whatever.
@twobugs actually I'm saying it right now
you can't find these funny
If we approve an edit that has a defacing summary, I think we're falling down in the job.
Edits are only for improving a question or answer.

HiccupWhere is the track Don't Call Me Flunky! / SEQ_BGM_KOOPA_CORP1.bcstm (file name) from Paper Mario: Sticker Star used?

Q: How to classify quests?

DCShannonIn an RPG, or similar game, you have quests. These are generally a sequence of events you can complete in order to get a reward, often including experience. As gamers, we often differentiate between "side quests" and "main quests". To me, this distinction has always been defined as such: Main...

@Ohnana wubalubadubdub
don't wubalub me
@nukeforum why
@Ohnana get schwifty :)
@nukeforum great song
20:16
@GodEmperorDune Do you know what that means?
@GodEmperorDune I concur
@fredley i forget exactly
I am in great pain, please help me
@GodEmperorDune It means "I am in terrible pain"
or that
20:17
great, it's still accurate
Can someone link me a good ringtone edition of get schwifty?
@ardaozkal ringtone edition?
something I can use on my phone
what was it called?
ughh
An instrumental one would be nice
i find most of my ringtones through zedge
@Dragonrage Same

My ringtone is the Hockey Night in Canada song :D
my ringtone is my phone vibrating
Isn't every night Hockey Night in Canada?
My ringtone is an acoustic version of the OG megaman song
its on silent 98.1423 % of the time
20:21
@Dragonrage 99.6346% here
85% of statistics are made up on the spot
yea i read that they did 13 studies on that
@nukeforum at least %1 of everything nukeforum says is correct
or was that the punchline to a joke?
i forgtet
@ardaozkal probably less
20:22

i forget
@Dragonrage you can edit messages.. if you want
i tried
it made a new one

@ardaozkal break out the calculator
cortana? reminds me of windows 10
20:23
also, windows phone, wow
@Dragonrage w10 for phone
I've never seen one in the wild
i only have one major complaint about windows 10
Out of 1440 minutes in a day, my phone is on silent on 980 minutes of it
only m-f
20:25
there seems to be no permanent way of disabling wake timers
@Dragonrage what is it?
oh
it always turns my computer on at 3 am to do updates
@Wipqozn I'm really bad at keeping track of those. I miss a lot of free stuff because of that.
and then i wake up and its on
or i get back from a trip and its on
@Dragonrage do you just put it to sleep or something?
20:26
i do not want my computer to turn on unless i manually press the power button
switch this
to this
@Dragonrage my computer only turns on when I press the power button
i did, however it still will randomly boot up for updates.
Now I know why my pc keeps crashing when I don't use it!
Your computer cold-boots to apply updates for windows?
20:27
Probably my mb driver is bugged
I'm having a really hard time believing that one
and when it tries to update while my pc is sleeping, it fails!

HMTKThis should solve your problem: Search Task Scheduler Navigate to Task Scheduler Library\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator\Reboot Note: Reboot is just a file, but you need to go inside all those folders Right Click Properties then click Conditions Uncheck Wake the computer to run this task

@Dragonrage That's not a cold boot
no its off
not cold boot from off
but i tried doing that
and the settings change back
dammit adult swim app
20:29
unless a microsoft employee is sneaking into your place and turning on your comp, I'm pretty sure your comp is just asleep
why are you playing the same ad over and over again
i click power-> shut down
Sounds like some wake on lan shenanigans.
@MadMAxJr that was the only other thing I could think of :\
20:30
That can usually be disabled at a bios level setting.
No
It is probably not caused by that
the power -> shut down doesn't turn off the computer completely
It is used for fast boot
It can boost up back from that LE mode if it wants.
so if i disable fastboot will it stop turning back on?
because its really annoying
Try that, or next time you shut down your pc, try pulling off your battery and putting it back, and pull off power connection.
does disabling fastboot significantly impact the boot time?
I'm out folks, see ya
20:33
cya
@Dragonrage If you are on ssd, it doesn't matter.
i dont have one, but am thinking of getting one
would turning off the power supply with the switch on the back stop it from turning it back on?
The guy who was talking in AGDQ was pissing me off
or is that a bad idea?
@Dragonrage it should
20:35
Kept referring to Samus as "him"
ok ill try that.
@SaintWacko Maybe he doesn't know the ending
@fredley They're playing Metroid Prime
@SaintWacko Maybe he's never played or heard of a Metroid game before
@fredley maybe the talker needs to DIAF
20:35
Maybe the player isn't familiar with the concept of women.
5
@fredley I suppose, but he's describing all the special things the runner is doing
@MadMAxJr This is probably more likely
Or maybe they just know more about the gameplay than the story
It's not exactly obvious what the gender is of a character in bulky power armor when you're looking out through the visor
@fredley Ah, a true blind run
@murgatroid99 shhh no reasonable responses here

20:38
@murgatroid99 it is when you see her eyes when the lighting is right
"We just discovered this caveman, perfectly preserved for over 10,000 years in ice. Now that he has thawed out, let's have him play video games for the internet."
@Dragonrage afaik fast boot turns everything in your pc off except ram, so it should only take longer by the time of dumping system temp files from hdd/ssd to ram.
i think in some of the loading scenes
@twobugs haha
@SaintWacko Without actually knowing what he said, maybe he's talking about the runner, not the character
20:39
That would actually be a great youtube channel I think. I'll get right on creating it
@murgatroid99 Oh. OH. I'll bet you're right
Okay
It's still a weird way to phrase it, but nowhere near as bad
Step 1: develop space ship capable of traveling the 10,000 miles the Earth has traveled between now and 10,000 years ago. Step 2: Outfit it with time travel
@twobugs i think step 1 is gonna be a tad bit easier than step 2
We already have ships that can travel 10,000 miles
Maybe some good news for the US Presidential elections: Trump supporters are overwhelmingly not regular voters
Hm, I don't know why I said "10,000 miles" as that is quite clearly wrong
20:43
Actually, Magellan had ships that could travel 10,000 miles (and did)
i think new horizons has traveled a little further than that
I mean, the Earth is rotating the sun which rotates the galactic center which has it's own movement... 10,000 years would end up with slightly more than 10,000 miles
@Dragonrage yeah, just 92.9 million.

Q: Can you play in a group with players from other Powers?

SeanI have a friend who has just started playing E:D and he has now got to the point where he is ready to choose his Power allegiance. I am allied with Edward Mahon and he is planning on allying with either one of the Independent or Federation powers. Will we still be able to group up and play and ...

Huh, my package that shipped today and was scheduled for a delivery tomorrow was just delivered.
20:46
@twobugs how does your time machine work?
Only be worried if something arrives before you ordered.
@Dragonrage That doesn't require a time machine, just an efficient delivery system
@Dragonrage It apparently piggy-backs off my Prime subscription
Amazon Time they're calling it
if you stay stationary and everything else rewinds, you might have some problems though
20:48
Something about a prime directive to not interfere with the past, but I'm sure that's no big deal
thats cool. they didnt notify me about the changes :(
@twobugs you just gave me an idea for a question on world builder
LADS
I DID IT
I have made it to competitive-level in CS:GO.
Steam is hinting me something.
@ardaozkal Team Fortress 3 confirmed.
Because we all know it won't be Half-Life 3.
Congrats of hitting the tier of CS:Go where there is slightly less taunting and more getting sniped by a guy you never even saw.
20:53
@Texenox grats, i guess
Apparently, though, they made changes to the ranking system.
3 losses is now apparently an immediate derank.
A tier of CS:GO where people play de_dust by muscle memory and not by wits.
@Texenox yeah i've seen a lot of questions here about it
@Texenox neeeerd

@Lazers2.0 Hey all. Just checking I'm not going crazy - is this OT?
@ardaozkal As in, level, or comp?
@Texenox comp
@psyk0 ...yes.
@ardaozkal Not even played comp yet.
20:57
you are on prof level 3
Cool thx :)
actually i think my question would be better fit for xkcd's what if blog
@psyk0 opinion based + shopping advice, yes.
Asking about shopping advice is off topic, yes.
@Texenox the profile level 3 thing is totally a terrible addition
20:59
