@Sterno "Ganking" in Souls usually refers to summoning co-op phantoms to fight red phantoms.
I need to go the store and stock up on supplies
I hope I don't encounter too many hackers in PC DS3
On the rbight side, I'll be able to play all day tomorrow
How do they complain?
Really, the only time it applies and should be looked down is when a Dragon covenant player is involved.
20:00
Can you send people messages or something?
Unlike @Sterno I don't have kids to looka fter, or even food to cook! My mother, since she's awesome, is making me supper and delivering it to me
@Sterno Typically reddit or other communities. Sometimes via messages yes
@GnomeSlice Ah, yeah. "until they fix" indicates it's a dev thing, not a user thing. Guess I won't be doing any jolly cooperation tonight after all. Just beating the game.
@Sterno Well, I'm watching a YouTube video right now.
In exchange I bought my mother some baileys
20:01
my xserver just craashed O_O
@Wipqozn Yeah, tomorrow I really only have about 9am-5pm to play.
And the YouTuber is invading people and complaining about being ganked.
And this coming weekend I'm visiting family so won't be able to play then either.
@Sterno I'll be 7:15ish am - whenever I go to bed
I mean if you invade someone you run the risk of going into a guy who is just going to the boss with his friend(s). That's a risk you take
20:01
Basically, I need to enjoy my feeling of DS3-superiority tonight and tomorrow, because as of tomorrow evening, it's over.
(inb4 so 6pm?)
oh wait, auto logout b/c of low battery slaps self for forgetting own gadgets
@Wipqozn So like 5pm
I can't REALLY play DS3 until like Wednesday
I almost said 6pm, but you made me change it
20:02
@Sterno When you put it like that, it would be rude of me to buy DS3 tonight!
@twobugs Exactly. You're invading someone else. They didn't ask for this fight, anything goes when it comes to invasions.
Dragon covenant, on the other hand, gets summoned into worlds, so ganking is definitely a jerk move there.
Yep. I don't have any sympathy for people who try to red eye and get caught like that
@Yuuki Still valid. :)
All is fair in PvP!
I only did a little pvp in Bloodborne and the people opened shortcuts for me

Q: Multiplayer race choosing logic

m04merlinIn Mario kart 8, when playing online multiplayer after voting for a race, (and everyone else does too) It goes to a roulette to choose the race. My question is, What is the roulette logic?

@twobugs I do that in Dark Souls before I kill people
In DS2 if I pull someone into my game through 'dragon remnants' is that a PVP or PVE thing?
also, music by zircon
@MadMAxJr PVP I think, isn't that the dueling covenant?
He came through as a white phantom so I was kinda confused.

Q: Is it safe to use an unofficial cable to power or charge a console?

GalabycaI need to buy a Super Nintendo AC Adapter Power Supply. Is it safe to use an aftermarket / generic AC adapter cable instead of the official product ? Can it damage the console ?

At no point did he attack me. He looked like he wanted to clear the way over to the raised area where you first fight The Pursuer, but I kinda-sorta fell off the wall to my death.
I was pulled into someone in the rat king area and I was a "grey phantom"
I want to request off of work on Mei 3rd, but I already know it will be declined. :(
grey phantoms are the gate guardians.
Ahahaha Mei 3rd
I'm really excited for Mei
Ugh I hate having to test sound notifications
20:21
@twobugs oh you want some pings to test?
Ping pong
My company has these training exercises but I'm not sure if these just need to be updated or if they intentionally have errors or what

Q: Could a member of my family and I play a game in Steam at the same time?

Alex SifuentesI have bought a game, but a member of my family couldn't because of $$ and I was thinking if I can do this: Add his/her computer to the list of family share of steam to let him/her see and play my games (I already have done that). Block steam (and possibly the game too) in my computer with t...

Q: How do I add plugins to a singleplayer world?

hyperviper11I am playing Minecraft 1.9.2. I want to install Bukkit or some other plugin to my single-player world. I know it is possible to install plugins on multi-player servers, but I'm not sure about single-player. Is it possible? If it is, how can I do it? Thanks in advance.

@Wipqozn 90 minutes
@twobugs that's the rat thing
20:31
The rat covenant was fun
@Sterno Will be playing and enjoying DS3 before me because I am going to the gym to level up in real life. I hope he has fun. Plus I haven't even preloaded the game
I could just sit in the area tabbed out, and tab back in and fight someone whenever I got the invasion noise
The important thing is I will be playing before @Wipqozn
Okay, gym time and stream tonight
@GnomeSlice check your steam
@murgatroid99 Yeah I did it once but it was cool. Fun area, lots of neat tricks and traps
20:35
I just have one soul. What can I buy with that?
@Blem Ah! Thanks! We'll have to play
@MadMAxJr nothing
@MadMAxJr $5, according to Simpsons
20:41
@GnomeSlice This is tempting... But I don't think my PC will run it.
@Fluttershy yeah i bought it a while ago, downloaded it, installed it, then got a directx error on launch because my PC was too weak
Chroma Squad and Convoy are also good
@Sterno In 90 minutes I'll be shutting off the PC and cleaning my apartment
I just noticed that the album cover looks kind of sort like the sunbros symbol
Emphasis on kind of sort
@Fluttershy Also in case you don't have their other game: bundlestars.com/en/bundle/freebird-combo-pack
To The Moon dev pack
I HAVE OVER 12 HOURS TO GO
When @Sterno starts playing I'll be in the final 12 hours
20:58
Dear Uni: get up and do something you lazy idiot. Love, Unionhawk
@Unionhawk time to get food from qdoba

Q: Questions about Fallout 4

LoonoeBasically, I bought Fallout 4 a couple of days ago, so far, I've gotten Piper, Strong, Codsworth, Dogmeat and Garvey, like 4 settlements, supposed to speak to Nick Valentine, but haven't yet, and I'm playing on the PS4, if that matters. Let's start with the quests. What I wanna know is, can you ...

Q: Are the in-game Steam keys real?

rivermont - Will B.Among the general gibberish that can be found on certain NPC computers, there are file that contain what look like Steam game keys. There's a thread on the Steam Hacknet discussion forums, but it doesn't look like anyone has answered it. Are they actual Steam keys that have been used or are they...

@Unionhawk good work
21:11
I can't find my shorts
@Wipqozn irl
I am fine with this
@fredley wat
how are they inventing all the things?

dammit work filter
21:23
That just looks like a text generator using existing patents as a corpus
@murgatroid99 so there is prior art of the prior art generator?
Yeah, it's called horse_ebooks
21:40
@Unionhawk that's can't be @Wipqozn. where are the socks?
@Wipqozn 15 minutes
@Sterno is literally the worst person to ever existgg
@Sterno anti @Wipqozn countdown best countdown
I'll stick around long enough for @Sterno to gloat with a title screen screenshot
I'll give him that much
He deserves that muich happiness, since he' won't be able to play all on the weekend

Q: The other name for gunships?

LevelleorFar back when I was playing Supreme Commander there were gunships, which could take off vertically and attack only land. I slightly remember that there was another name for them in general that gunship, but cant realise it. Anyone remember? Stupid question, I know..

21:58
Just going to leave it running in Steam all day
Oh hey. Dark Souls 3 should be unlocked.
I should go home and play that.

This unlock is not going as desired
dark souls III: @Wipqozn's revenge edition
Part of me wants to get Dark Souls 3 right now just to see if I can beat both of you on the install.
22:05
Heh
So I just crafted the Panic Attack.
@Yuuki if you have good bandwidth, you might win
It works surprisingly well.

Q: Keyboard flickering?

Tape LegI had just bought a new keyboard, the blackweb centaur, but the next day I realized something was off about it. Whenever I held down a key, after a second or two it would ghost on and off very quickly. It works fine for typing, but when I'm playing a game, it means that I can't walk in a straig...

22:07
@Wipqozn Once it launches I'll just leave it on the loading screen. You can experience it vicariously through Steam streaming
Ice cold.
I JUST WENT FROM 1 MINUTE 4 SECONDS TO 2 MINUTES 17 SECONDS
Worst.
I'm just going to go paint.
Dark Souls doesn't interest me at all.
I had to name that "hahawipqozn2.jpg" because apparently I already had a "hahawipqozn.jpg"
cc @Wipqozn
Whuh?
I guess all the positive reviews are in another language.
22:12
@Sterno cc @Wipqozn
Which is kinda suspicious, but whatever.
@Sterno What was the first one?
@Wipqozn Socks?
@Yuuki tempted to flag as NSFW
Today I saw a Windows compilation error I've never seen before: we can't run MSBuild because we have more than 64KB of environment variables.
22:18
@murgatroid99 wow
i've seen the errors where PATH is too long to save, but never hit that one
hi @AshleyNunn
I've had Visual Studio freak out on me because the path where the solution was stored was way too long.
Oh yeah, I've already had problems with file paths being too long
i've had visual studio autogenerate and save too long file paths
but that's more of a super deep enterprisey class structure thing
It turns out that 256 characters isn't that much when NPM recursively installs dependencies in subdirectories

Q: Complications to send module to space station

vianna77I'm building a space station that will make a trip to Jool, collect science from its moons and return. Here is my reusable science module (2600kg): I tested my Laythe lander in Kerbin. The lander was able to leave Kerbin and stay in orbit with 2600m/s left in the tank. This is the lander with ...

user15026
I started playing Clash Royale today. It's kinda fun. (although I'm just playing the tutorial stuff right now, something tells me when I get to the multiplayer part I might stop liking it :P)
user15026
(although it's weird playing things on the iPad. Everything is so big!)
@AshleyNunn oh, nice. ive been playing for awhile. i prefer coc, but it gives me something to do on my quick breaks at work
user15026
@Dragonrage I've not played CoC, should I?
@AshleyNunn i enjoy it, and it gets more fun the stronger you get. it sort of like a tower defense game and a base destroyer game in one
22:28
my boss loves CoC. His ringtone is the "hogriders" call from the ad
also if you do decide to play CoC, you can join my clan once you repair your clan castle and i can give you super leveled troops
@GodEmperorDune hooooggggggggggggggggg riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiderrrrrrrrrrrrrrss

Q: Where do Mooshrooms spawn?

Art3misThis question is about normal vanilla minecraft in survival mode. I've noticed that mooshrooms seem to only spawn on mushroom islands. Is my guess correct, or is there another set of parameters in which they can spawn?

currently im level 7 and at 2015 trophies in clash royale
22:34
@AshleyNunn what community is for books?
Hello,

One of my recent question is not well-received and I'm asking why.

What rule did I not respected? Does someone have an advice or a suggestion to modify it to fit in the scope of Arqade's rules ?

Thanks !

http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/262197/is-it-safe-to-use-an-unofficial-cable-to-power-or-charge-a-console
@anyone what community is for books?
@Parzival There used to be one but I believe it never left beta and closed.
So have you guys gotten gut yet?
@RedRiderX shoot, I have the perfect question, and i really need it answered!
@Parzival if its science fiction it might fit on scifi.se
@Galabyca i don't see any close votes, so i'm not sure why you think it's out of scope
user15026
@Dragonrage Yaaaay!
@Galabyca The secret to remember is that this site is made of people, and people can do strange things.
user15026
@Parzival There's not really one - like it was mentioned, if it is scifi or fantasy, we have a site for that, other than that, I can't think of a site off the top of my head without knowing what sort of thing you're asking
22:39
@Galabyca the downvotes just mean some people don't like the question. It doesn't say anything about the quality of your question, it just says something about some people not finding your question useful
seems like a fairly decent question to me tbh
if its from the downvotes, it's all the fault of @TimStone
@Chippies Yeah I think it's fine
@Dragonrage sadly, it's not, its GoT.
@Galabyca i don't see anything particularly wrong with it. someone probably lost their keys, or they just didnt find it particularly interesting. but i think the question is okay, and some people just like to downvote things
@GodEmperorDune No shut up
Could be that we don't get many hardware questions, so some people might not realize they are on topic
@Unionhawk i'm looking for that meta post
The "Tim lost his keys" thing is dumb
Because people use it on its own without explaining what they mean by that
user15026
@Galabyca Like others have said - it's not gathering close votes, and it's not offtopic as far as I can see. Some people don't like hardware type questions, so that might be why.
Also the first answer you got was not useful, so the not useful-ness might have rubbed off on your question to some.
22:41
Thank you for all these clarifications :) I just wanted to be sure.
@AshleyNunn i can give max level of almost all troops in CoC, and they are really strong especially if a lower level player uses them
It's psychology at that point.
@RedRiderX monkey see, monkey do
When really all they want to say is "meh people don't really need a reason to use up or down votes in the way that they do" but people are also just the worst and say "Tim lost his keys" instead
@GnomeSlice where are your clothes?
22:41
someone sees a downvote, so they downvote too
I hope they'll upvotes, so they will upvote now :)
@Unionhawk its a great post and it's your fault you don't appreciate the sarcasm
user15026
In general, if you're not like...getting downvoted to oblivion, etc. and people aren't voting to close or leaving comments, I generally don't worry about it. People don't have to justify their votes, so often without comments, it's just guessing and things.
@Unionhawk even though people generally do link to the thread, I agree, because it requires completely random people to read a very long post that could've been replaced with "people do things for reasons"
At least, there is a nice answer now.
@Chippies sometimes people do things for no reasons
@Dragonrage no reason is a reason in itself
there's always a reason
even if that reason is that there is no (describable) reason
@Galabyca if you manage to get an answer, but lose a bit of rep, is it worth it? if so, just shrug it off and move on.
user15026
The Tim/keys post is a nice pointer, but it's often faster to go "people don't have to give a reason for votes, so the best we can do is guess but other than that it's really not worth the anxiety if people aren't going to leave comments, because we can't force them to. So we can give you maybe an idea, but often, there's nothing anyone can say."
user15026
The odd downvote isn't much to worry over, really. People need to be less anxious over them. If the post is really having problems, people are going to comment or VTC or whatever
22:44
@AshleyNunn added to copy board
@AshleyNunn the keys post is an in-depth explanation why people might do what they do, but it's a very lengthy post that I wouldn't expect most people to read
Yes, I had a really precise one. I don'tworry about all the downvote, but I'm new here and I was asking me if there was anything wrong with the question itself...
This soapbox is sponsored by the Uni-against-copy-paste-comments PAC
user15026
@Chippies It's not really in depth - its a long story that has like a two sentence TL;DR at the end.
@AshleyNunn the TL;DR should be at the top, imho
22:45
@Galabyca well, good for you. we like people like you here
@AshleyNunn Do you remember how I showed you to disable the keyboard switching language modes thing?
I reinstalled my PC and I need to disable that again
ééééé

Q: How to disable Ctrl+Shift keyboard layout switch (for the same input language) in Windows?

Pedro PalhotoIn Windows (XP at least), when there are two or more keyboard layouts for the same input language, pressing Ctrl+Shift switches the keyboard layout. Where can this be disabled or changed to another keystroke combination? A similar feature is changing input languages. Alt+Shift is the default key...

user15026
(Its faster than me typing it all out)
@GnomeSlice eh, Win8/10 is different, so I can't guide you step by step
@Galabyca good night
user15026
@Galabyca You too :)
22:47
@AshleyNunn Thanks, that's it. Maybe.....
How to get stars: 1) I don't even know anymore you guys are weird 2) ???
btw, why is canada funny? did i miss something?
Nito dead! On my way to Seath now! :D
user15026
@Dragonrage @GnomeSlice is having issues because Canada default in windows is to have a french and english keyboard enabled
@Dragonrage because it's not the US, I guess
22:48
@Dragonrage because half the bridge is from canada, so making fun of them is great
user15026
so if you accidentally shift+ctrl it swaps keyboards
user15026
and suddenly, accented characters.
@Dragonrage Because if I hit ctrl and shift my ? becomes a é
@GnomeSlice if you don';t use french, why don't you just remove that?
and ' becomes either `` or è
22:48
ah, thanks for all 4 reasons
next up, making fun of tim hortons and poutine
and the pings
@Chippies That's what I asked how to do
@Dragonrage Because Canada is weird
I reinstalled windows, it's turned back on.
22:49
Apr 5 '15 at 16:02, by Ashley Nunn
Bridge, you are weird
Obviously
@GnomeSlice seemed to me like you asked how to get rid of the ctrl+shift shortcut
And, more specifically, because French I guess
@Unionhawk Everything is weird
I don't think you can remove regional keyboards from windows
22:49
@GnomeSlice yes you can
you only need to have 1 layout at any times
There we go
Got it
actually idk, I've never had that issue, so maybe you can't

user15026
Yaaaaaay

Q: I cant join my friends world

J. KahleI can not join my friend's Minecraft PC sever when I tried to join it over and over again and then tried to ask my friend to go out and go back in but it still did not work.

22:51
I wonder what the Multilingual standard does
user15026
@GnomeSlice It's similarly annoying to the French one
Oh.
I don't want an American language input though I want Canadian
bah
probably combines the US and French layouts where both commonly used things are available
@GnomeSlice why?
chances are, you have always used the US input
because
it's important to me
1 min ago, by Unionhawk
USA USA
22:53
and unless you have a keyboard with specifically Canadian layout (not sure what the differences are) the inputs will not match for some keys
basically, if you don't have french symbols under your letter decals, you probably have a US layout
