Also, whats with the random stars today?

Unionhawk

Nobody knows

user15026

@Sterno I prefer Jeopardy.

two bugs

@AshleyNunn Someone used up all their stars (literally)

MadMAxJr

It's been weird for a few weeks now. (starring)

Sterno

I'm curious how a bunch of hearts is flag worthy.

Texenox

20:00

@AshleyNunn About four of the stars were from me on existing starred posts.

user15026

Oh, that I don't care over

user15026

I mean more the seemingly random stuff that's picking up a single star

Texenox

In that case, the star on your comment was also from me.

Sterno

Yessssssss. Star clearing! Mod/room owner abuse! Drama!

user15026

Fair enough, the star board just seems a little more random than normal.

Sterno

20:01

yawn

user15026

Not everything needs a star.

nukeforum

@AshleyNunn Someone thinks it's funny or interesting or important?

MadMAxJr

That didn't need a star.

Unionhawk

@Sterno YOU ARE DEFYING THE REST OF THE ROOM!!!!1one

nukeforum

I'm really new here so I have no idea what the -right- way is

user15026

20:02

sigh Alright, this is a losing battle.

two bugs

Restarring the hearts didn't really need to happen either

Texenox

Okay, who starred @ardaozkal's message back there.

djsmiley2k

I'd argue many things don't need a downvote. but:P

Unionhawk

HOW DARE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

@AshleyNunn It's never a losing battle in the battle of mod abuse

MadMAxJr

Time to pour gasoline around the corners of the room and strike the match.

Sterno

20:03

@badp initiated room timeout in 5... 4...

user15026

@Unionhawk When you're too tired to mod, maybe :)

@Texenox ninja'd

StrixVaria

This room was placed in timeout for 30 seconds; the topic of this room is "General Arqade chat, wherein we attempt to minimise the impact of badp, and badp byproducts" - conversation should be limited to that topic.

This room is atrocious.

SaintWacko

You're not @badp

ardaozkal

-30

SaintWacko

Also, I like the zooming numbers

Do it again

Unionhawk

Sadly I don't get zooming numbers

Oh well

SaintWacko

20:04

Oh, wow, that is sad

fredley

This room was placed in timeout for 1 second; the topic of this room is "General Arqade chat, wherein we attempt to minimise the impact of badp, and badp byproducts" - conversation should be limited to that topic.

Unionhawk

All right now this is stupid

SaintWacko

THERE WERE NO ZOOMING NUMBERS

Not enough timeout

MOAR TIMEOUT

Unionhawk

The first time, sure, comedic timing

ardaozkal

10 secs

fredley

20:05

This room was placed in timeout for 5 seconds; the topic of this room is "General Arqade chat, wherein we attempt to minimise the impact of badp, and badp byproducts" - conversation should be limited to that topic.

Unionhawk

The second time, stupid

user15026

.....

Unionhawk

YOU REALLY ARE AN IDIOT

user15026

Why are we timing out the room

SaintWacko

okay stop timeout

@AshleyNunn Because we like the zooming numbers

user15026

20:05

Alright. I'm going to walk away for a bit.

fredley

@SaintWacko You realise you can create your own room and time it out as much as you like?

user15026

Because my head cold means I literally cannot logic out this room right now.

nukeforum

I guess I'm gonna leave now see you in the Qs/As

SaintWacko

@fredley Hey, I wasn't doing it!

Unionhawk

@fredley *mods only

SaintWacko

20:06

I can't

ardaozkal

@AshleyNunn there is no logic.

Unionhawk

timeout is a mod only feature

James

Haha

fredley

@Unionhawk Oh well, you'll have to become mod then

James

I think that live.lmgtfy.com site has completely ground three development departments here to a grinding halt :D

ardaozkal

20:06

Damn the person who posted this

Unionhawk

→ 1 user moved to 💩

James

@ardaozkal Not my fault! :)

ardaozkal

I have been listening to that in the last 30 mins

Sterno

Starring dumb things is dumb. Clearing stars is equally dumb. @Sterno instigating room timeouts is dumb.

Texenox

@ardaozkal So, you, then?

Damn you, @ardaozkal!

SaintWacko

20:07

@Unionhawk Wat

ardaozkal

@Texenox nah fam, someone posted it earlier.

user15026

Clearing stars is useful when people do that literally star every message on the screen thing.

Unionhawk

6 hours ago, by fredley

→ 9 messages moved to 💩

Sterno

Was that happening? I hadn't seen it.

SaintWacko

@Unionhawk Right, but moving a user?

user15026

20:08

@Sterno Nah, not today, just more speaking in the general case.

Sterno

Everyone should start out with 10 starts they can give out. You only get more by receiving them from others.

Unionhawk

@SaintWacko not real

Can't be done

SaintWacko

@Unionhawk Ohhh, okay

MadMAxJr

I'm gonna pull the ejector switch and come back when this room is a bit less odd.

Unionhawk

Especially not a mod

SaintWacko

20:09

@MadMAxJr Good luck with that!

badp

@MadMAxJr fare thee well

James

ROFL

Texenox

brb going to hang myself

Unionhawk

SANITY INTEGRITY CRITICAL. EJECT. EJECT.

James

[12:08]
okay, I need to stop watching this
[12:08]
it's like someone combined car accidents with a fishtank

Sterno

20:11

This isn't even that odd for The Bridge. I don't know what you're all complaining about.

Unionhawk

Yeah, I don't

This is pretty standard

badp

DON'T WORRY GUYS I'M HERE

Sterno

Thank goodness.

@badp abuse best abuse

SaintWacko

@badp Oh yay

Texenox

...okay, back to learning C++.

badp

20:13

BADP ABUSE: JUDGED BEST IN CLASS BY TOP LIFEHACKS USER 2016

Sterno

@fredley You need to make a "Nuke the stars from orbit. It's the only way to be sure" script that nukes everything on the star list.

I would, but I'm demonstrably lazier than you.

fredley

@Sterno All the way back to 0

no stars ever

Sterno

@badp 2016!

badp

@Sterno you do realize the only way to do that is to remove all stars ever.

SaintWacko

@Sterno The star list is infinite

It just shows the top ones

Sterno

20:14

@badp Well, I figured it could be iterative. You hit the current list. The new top 10 or whatever come in. Then you can just keep nuking until you get to something you find inoffensive.

SaintWacko

> This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move

Texenox

djsmiley2k

So...

the solicitor is sending us the 'transfers' for buying this house

I have no clue what they talking about

badp

isn't the solicitor the kind of person who sends you nastygrams as opposed to money?

SaintWacko

@djsmiley2k land transfer tax?

djsmiley2k

20:18

o_O

I don't... think so

@badp lol yes but generally you need one for buying a hosue

badp

I thought that was the notary.

ardaozkal

@Texenox better: ardao.me/files/ai0u.png

badp

But apparently notary and solicitor are synonyms.

Texenox

@ardaozkal OH MY GOD

Sterno

> I would pose one meaningful question: if you get so clearly and dramatically stressed by playing a game, how is it a fair contention that a small party of adventurers going into a dark, dangerous, terrifying place wouldn't similarly explode with stress ?

fredley

20:22

@ardaozkal enjoy your unhappiness

badp

* "I would pose one meaningful question: if you get so clearly and dramatically stressed by playing a game, why are you playing"

ardaozkal

@fredley I am, thank you.

Main reason for my unhappiness is exams though.

fredley

@ardaozkal protip: study, don't waste time in here

Texenox

Right, question.

I'm trying to install Windows 10 using the GetWindows10-Web_Default_Attr.exe installer on the MS website.

MBraedley

MY EXPENSE CLAIM CHEQUE ARRIVED!

Texenox

20:24

Trying to follow this guide that says I need to bypass GWX on the system tray.

...how do I do that, exactly?

fredley

Whoever posted live.lmgtfy.com, this is a timesink to rival that one.

Texenox

Wait, I think I'm misinterpreting it.

MBraedley

@Texenox find the tool that lets you create install media for other computers, save it as an ISO, then create a bootable USB drive with it.

Texenox

@MBraedley Okay.

MBraedley

There's a little more to it than that, but that'll get you started.

Texenox

20:27

That's the Media Creation Tool, right?

MBraedley

yeah

ardaozkal

@fredley me.

And thanks for creating more opportunities for me to waste time :)

github.com/ardaozkal/Heart_of_Fortune/releases/tag/1

Just released code too

GnomeSlice

@StrixVaria we could play it together tho

I guess we can play Density or Rocket Leaf

two bugs

Density: The Talking King

GnomeSlice

@fredley The nOb thing actually looks pretty cool

fredley

20:44

@GnomeSlice srsly?

The product shot is of it sitting on a big desk of knobs, why would you want one more knob?

GnomeSlice

Looks like its built into a slider

that looks like a mixer, not a desk

i didnt go very far down the page it was tldr

Texenox

Donald Trump is pissed about his microphone

murgatroid99

@Texenox Wow, Donald Trump is very orange

GnomeSlice

He usually is

Texenox

@murgatroid99 oh juses you're right

GnomeSlice

20:50

I didnt realize the searches in the live.lmgtfy thing were clickable and accidentally clicked "gay porn"

6

Texenox

@GnomeSlice lel

two bugs

Well I'm probably on a watch list thanks to live.lmgfty.com

Texenox

@twobugs what did you click

two bugs

I didn't click anything but some words scrolled across my screen that were not the words you want to see on the internet

Haider

Is it okay to re-post a question after deleting it as a " BUMP "?

Texenox

20:54

>"Ironman aruba" >"is sasha a gay cunt" >"girl with long tongue" >what

@Haider I highly doubt that.

Haider

Conclusive straight up answer pls.

Texenox

Also, "to trol on internet" and "who the fuck decided that 2 slices of pineapple is a serving?" were two more things I found on LMGTFY.

@Haider It sounds like an... unorthodox thing to do, so it's probably not okay.

Unionhawk

No, don't delete a question just to repost it because it's not getting attention

djsmiley2k

@murgatroid99 annoying orange orange...

Unionhawk

@djsmiley2k Hey Jeb!

Haider

20:56

No, actually, I really think it can get an answer.

But it just seems, the right folk weren't online at the time

Unionhawk

Which question?

Haider

Its about MKX

Unionhawk

0

Q: Can't execute easy fatalities

I can't do easy fatalities, like (Hold RT + X/A). Other than that, other fatalities with usual inputs are not a problem, but easy ones don't work at all. Also, I do have 2 of those easy fatality tokens. Why aren't they working?

mortal-kombat-x

Haider

Exactly!

two bugs

It's still on the first page

Haider

20:57

I think it's gone to 2nd page now. :(

Unionhawk

Have faith and patience

Haider

its*

Texenox

@Haider Bumping in general isn't even a practice here, bounties exist for a reason.

Unionhawk

If all else fails, the community user will automatically bump it at a certain point if it remains unanswered

Haider

Ah yes, good idea about the bouties @Texenox

Texenox

20:58

@Unionhawk yes

Unionhawk

It's only been 3 hours. It's probably okay

Haider

Anyhow, what if it just dies, like goes off to the 5th page and floats away

Could I delete the previous question and re-post it :3

Unionhawk

So, how the "active" sorting on the questions tab works is it goes by post activity

So if anything, making an edit would accomplish what you want without also deleting votes, but that's also not great practice to edit a thing just to bump it

Haider

My action doesn't even exist on the Active" tab anymore.

my question*
