There's a single piece.

It's so shiny, it reflects everything, making it look like I missed some spots.

@GodEmperorDune You've seen my previous kit, correct?

I did an incredibly good job with the metal finish on that guy.

GodEmperorDune

@Frank i was making a first world problem joke with gunpla. guess it didn't work

Frank

@GodEmperorDune No, I got it. But I'm pointing out I really like the technique. :P

@Frank yeah your gunpla always come out awesome

though i'm partial to the hug gun one

those wings were just so iridescent

Frank

@AshleyNunn then you need to hype it until everyone gets it, like @Wipqozn did with dark souls 3

user15026

@GodEmperorDune It's a hip hop rap musical about the founding fathers and it is AMAZING.

user15026

(but still it is AWESOME and I say that as someone who just has listened to the soundtrack a million times and not actually seen the show except for youtube clips)

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn so we can expect some oneboxed youtube clips then? ;)

@AshleyNunn And once I layer it with a nice deep blue, it's going to look SO gorgeous.

@Wipqozn @Sterno @twobugs Alright... Should I go Mage or Melee in Dark Souls 2?

@Fluttershy I only ever do melee.

Fluttershy

Well, that makes 2 to 1, so @Wipqozn loses by default if he says mage. Melee it is!

badp

01:12

@Fluttershy you should go gut

Private Pansy

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy Having played Mages and Melee, I can say Melee first is better IMO. Magic is easier, and enemies tend to balanced around the idea you'll be doing melee.

Magic is super fun, but Melee does seem to be a bit closer to the "true' souls experience

@Yuuki that's got to be good news. Affleck has the clout to tell Snyder to piss off.

Yuuki

@KutuluMike Well, considering he's directing it, pretty sure he just did tell Snyder to piss off.

KutuluMike

03:23

I bet Snyder still has an EP credit

AFAIK Snyder's EP on every DCEU movie

Yuuki

Executive producer is a very... flexible title.

It could mean anything from "involved with the story" to "paid for a lot of the production" to "literally did f--k all but we have to credit him anyways".

KutuluMike

True, but WB basically put Snyder in charge of the DCEU; he, in theory, has final say on everything.

Yuuki

Well, that's kinda backfiring in their face.

KutuluMike

it is, and I think they might be backing off on it.

Yuuki

I want to see the standalone Batman movie do really well and then Batfleck takes over the DCEU.

KutuluMike

03:25

but they're doubling down on the DCEU

Yuuki

And then MATT DAMON.

KutuluMike

WB is cutting down on their movie release schedule but not their DCEU movie schedule.

Yuuki

I want a Matt Damon as Booster Gold movie.

And I want it now.

KutuluMike

Matt Damon as Oliver Queen?

he's too serious to be Booster Gold.

Yuuki

He won Best Actor in a Comedy. Granted, it was for The Martian, so...

Nathan Fillion as Booster Gold and Alan Tudyk as Blue Beetle would be pretty nice too, but I think they're too light-hearted for DCEU.

@KutuluMike As much I love Booster Gold, I don't think he's going to be having as many laughs if he joins the DCEU.

KutuluMike

03:29

rumor is that Snyder got told by the bosses to lighten up.

Yuuki

We'll have to see in future movies because DCEU is not looking like the right setting for an honest-to-the-comics Booster Gold.

KutuluMike

they're reshooting parts of Suicide Squad; they "claim" it's not to change the tone, but that last trailer they put out on Sunday was more light-hearted than the earlier ones

Yuuki

@KutuluMike Well, rumors were also abound that the first trailer had about all the jokes in the movie and they're reshooting to get some more of that comedy.

meanwhile in perl

sub my_test { map { $_ + 1) 1, 2, 3 } gives 2, 3, 4

but sub my_test { map { return $_ + 1} 1, 2, 3} gives 2

because that return returns from my_test

because map and grep are special

and there is a mechanism to make your own special things

Ronan

Everything in perl is an edge case.

but the mechanism fails to produce something that is as special

sub sorta_map(&) { my $f = shift; $f->(1), $f->(2), $f->(3) }; sorta_map { return shift + 1; } gives 2, 3, 4

@Wipqozn No. A swingset is being delivered today and I need to be here for that. Which was going to mean I was working from home, but might mean I'm not-working from home

two bugs

@Chippies I haven't yet, but I want to see what they bring to the table

Chippies

@twobugs well, yeah, if you are building a new PC and your current one is sufficient for now, I'd wait for next gen gpu's as well

two bugs

12:44

They are the biggest graphics company in the world. I doubt they will just screw up completely

Chippies

eh, they've screwed up pretty majorly with latest gen

badp

@twobugs yeah, now it's started whining about whitespace

two bugs

They've made some missteps but I don't think they've completely dropped the ball

badp

what are you, gofmt?

two bugs

Lint tends to yell at me a lot about using ++

I get why, but when my code doesn't work that's usually not helpful feedback.

Chippies

@twobugs their current generation of gpu's are underpowered compared to AMD (it has always been the case though). Nvidia gpu's are as efficient as they get, whereas AMD gets better as drivers improve and even better in dx12 where drivers don't talk to cpu as much

Private Pansy

@badp Use globals for that

two bugs

I wouldn't say they're underpowered, but the long term performance hasn't been what you would expect

Private Pansy

@badp Trailing commas don't work in IE8

two bugs

AMD has been hungry for a while and they're putting good work in

Private Pansy

If you don't need to support IE8 you can configure it to disable that option

two bugs

12:47

I'm just not writing them off, basically

Chippies

@twobugs underpowered compared to AMD or AMD just has more raw performance than nvidia, whichever way you look at it, AMD has the potential to get better

sure, no reason to write them off :P

as a consumer, get what's best for you

two bugs

NVidia performance does improve with drivers, just not as much as AMD

They tend to target newer releases and front load the performance improvements

Chippies

AMD gpu's have had more raw performance for years, it's their drivers that has held them back, because they aren't threaded as well

@twobugs not with maxwell architecture though

sure, the performance improved a little since launch, but it's hardly noticeable compared to previous generations and AMD cards

two bugs

Right, but this is going to be a new generation. I fully expect them to have learned from their recent mistakes

They were slammed pretty hard for some of their conduct last gen, and rightfully so

Chippies

@twobugs so, don't release super efficient architecture at launch? :P

two bugs

12:49

Even then, the Titan was one of the best cards on the market still

Chippies

maxwell is as efficient as it gets, which is why there's no improvements

@twobugs 980ti is faster than the Titan

which is usually how it goes

two bugs

I said "one of" :P

Chippies

the Fury X is pretty close up there too

anyways, I got to do chores and stuff...

two bugs

I mean, we'll see how it shakes out. If Pascal is underwhelming then I'm not going to buy in

As a consumer I just want the biggest numbers

Chippies

the thing is, AMD cards have always aged better

which is something to think about as well

of course it might change with their next architecture upgrade

two bugs

12:52

That's certainly true. However, I'll refer you to my starred post about how I enjoy making bad financial decisions :P

Chippies

the 390 and 390x is just a refreshed 290/290x and it keeps up and surpasses the newer architecture of nvidia

there's some gpu's in current gen that's 3 generations old now

and are still very competitive

badp

@PrivatePansy internal app, only thing that's supported is Chrome latest :P

thanks for the headsup tho

two bugs

@PrivatePansy How do you know so much about web stuff

You make me feel bad :(

Private Pansy

@twobugs Using JSLint (not JSHint) is like having Douglas Croakford as your code reviewer

Q: Minecraft 1.9 Skins stopped working?

i have a problem. I can't see my own skin and other people's skins on servers and singleplayer. Everything works fine in 1.8 but in 1.9 Skins stopped working? Can someone help me?

You get all the benefit of having Douglas Croakford as your code reviewer, and all the pain of having Douglas Croakford as your code reviewer

two bugs

Haha, sounds about right

It's definitely helped me in the past, but I feel like to get the full benefit you have to commit to his standards 100%

Private Pansy

ESLint is a better tool nowadays I think github.com/eslint/eslint

two bugs

Which isn't always viable. If I'm working on some other framework that isn't already conforming, switching is going to be a big pain

@PrivatePansy Cool, I'll check this out

badp

the local js dev suggested jshint
