The Bridge

Yuuki

16:00

@Ronan So what you're saying is that it's okay to discriminate against white people because, by and large, they usually aren't discriminated against?

GodEmperorDune

@Ronan so fuct

@Yuuki yep

Ronan

@Yuuki I'm saying casting a black person in a role isn't really making a dent in the number of roles white people get.

MadMAxJr

I'm concerned how they're gonna have Batou look. :|

Unionhawk

And I'm saying it's a Fantastic Four movie who cares

GodEmperorDune

by the power vested in me as a white cis male, i authorize you to give all the roles to POC

Ronan

16:01

@GodEmperorDune Seconded.

Unionhawk

Hint: the studio doesn't care they just need the rights

MadMAxJr

And now the entire cast is hispanic.

Ronan

@MadMAxJr There are plenty of all white casts, I don't see the problem with an all hispanic one.

GodEmperorDune

@MadMAxJr yeah i'm failing to see the problem here

MadMAxJr

And now the cast are assorted breeds of dog in hats.

Tachikomas must be played by actual spiders.

GodEmperorDune

16:03

@MadMAxJr because nonwhites are animals?

Unionhawk

IT'S A SLIPPERY SLOPE!

Ronan

MadMAxJr

I am not making a political statement, I am just being absurd.

Unionhawk

So am I

OH! TAKE THAT! PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY CALL SLIPPERY SLOPE

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune So are whites.

Fluttershy

16:04

@Unionhawk Health is handy. I usually go endurance and whatever weapon stat first, and then start dumping into health.

MadMAxJr

We should get real spiders playing Tachikomas so I can get that damned spider in the corner of my living room out of my home and into a real job.

GodEmperorDune

@MadMAxJr its real job is plotting vengeance against you

protip: you should just move

MadMAxJr

At least real spiders don't have machine gun arms and invisibility.

Yuuki

Hmm... Michael Keaton may be playing the villain in the standalone Spider-Man movie?

Ronan

@MadMAxJr You're not intentionally making a political statement.

Sterno

16:05

@Unionhawk urmom is a slippery slope

Private Pansy

@MadMAxJr Well now you jinxed it

We just have to wait a few thousand years for evolution and/or the radioactive fallout from the next World War to do the job

GodEmperorDune

@Sterno cc @Wipqozn

MadMAxJr

Honestly I may just binge-watch GitS again to the desire outta my system.

Too much hope on the movie version.

Private Pansy

@MadMAxJr I can show you the first pictures we have of the movie to turn you off

MadMAxJr

I saw the one released shot.

Not enough purple wig.

GodEmperorDune

16:08

@PrivatePansy how bad is it?

Yuuki

It's Rupert Sanders.

It's mostly likely gonna be real bad.

Private Pansy

Yuuki

His only other directorial experience is Snow White and the Huntsman.

Unionhawk

TAKE THAT, JOJA MART

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki which was full of off-camera scandal iirc

Private Pansy

16:09

@Yuuki oh god why

GodEmperorDune

@PrivatePansy cringe

MadMAxJr

One of the executive producers did Edge of Tomorrow. I think that's the only highlight in the creative talent.

Yuuki

Scarlett's not bad, she just has very questionable taste in roles.

Private Pansy

I think I'd rather watch two hours of Tachikomas debating the nature of sapience

Frank

@Wipqozn At least people think you ARE a developer.

GodEmperorDune

16:11

@Yuuki not keanu level bad though

Yuuki

She was good in Her and Under the Skin, but she also did Lucy around the same time.

Private Pansy

Well I'd watch that regardless

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki i meant regarding taste in roles, not performances

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune I think Keanu just pokes his head out every now and then and accepts the first movie proposal that comes to him right around that time.

MadMAxJr

@PrivatePansy I preferred their collective shock when they discovered they no longer have braincases, but were moved to cloud storage/satellite.

Dragonrage

16:13

good morning bridge

MadMAxJr

@Yuuki If he sees his shadow, six more months of bad movies?

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki WHOA

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune Lucy was a bad role choice. No amount of performance chops could've saved that.

Private Pansy

The Verge has compiled a list of her wigs and it's so ridiculous theverge.com/2016/4/14/11429786/…

Yuuki

And the few positive reviews did praise her performance.

@PrivatePansy That's a bit rude, some of those were actually good.

GodEmperorDune

16:16

@Yuuki right, scarjo gives great performances

Unionhawk

> [Editor's Note: Hi, this is Chris Plante, and I just want to say that I also really like this wig, and would rather not be associated with colleagues who do not like this wig.]

MadMAxJr

Scarjo makes her sound like a pokemon.

Yuuki

@MadMAxJr Scarjo used Charm!

Private Pansy

@MadMAxJr I find it hard to believe they could have out of body experiences just because of a satellite uplink

GodEmperorDune

@PrivatePansy their physical bodies were rekt, iirc

MadMAxJr

16:20

Solid State Society just left me wanting more. :<

I saw the first Arise. Good, but not the same vibe.

Wipqozn

@Frank Also, I found out that one of the higher ups (who is maybe in charge of us? I'm not sure anymore) seems to think devs shouldn't be paid more than other employees. My boss basically told them they were stupid, from what I understand, and explained why in great detail. In a room filled with other people all agreeing with him. I wish I wa there for that.

Antoher dev is leaving to, and tbh I'm closer and closer to leaving after hearing that

Dragonrage

Wipqozn

We have some interns joining us soon

Dragonrage

why is one 60 minutes old, and the other 1 hour old

it's the same thing

Wipqozn

and they'll be here for four months, so I wouldn't want to leave before them and completely screw the interns over. AFterwards, we'll see. Plus the interns will be reporting to me, so it'll be a good mentoring opportunity for me.

Dragonrage

16:23

@Wipqozn we are getting 4 interns in june here

Private Pansy

@Dragonrage Either rounding or caching

Dragonrage

@PrivatePansy i'll go with caching. that sounds like a reasonable thing to blame

alternatively, i could also blame @Wipqozn or @uni

Private Pansy

IIRC the time gets refreshed only when the state of the star list changes

@MadMAxJr I like the Arise series. It's not groundbreaking, but the graphics refresh is nice (I haven't seen Solid State Society yet)

Q: how to make setblock a command block with a command that is executed at a cirtian player

I have made a minigame on my server, mctrees.net, using command blocks but it dosent work with multiplayer so I would like to make it place the commands that run for the game but for it to make it spesific to each player. e.g. I have a command that usually gets run: /setblock @p[r=10] dirt ~ ~...

MadMAxJr

Solid State Society is closure to the character hooks from GitS, a good watch.

GodEmperorDune

16:29

@MadMAxJr i think i haven't watched gits since second gig

then netflix had something, but it was basically the seasons compressed into a miniseries

Private Pansy

Netflix has the first three 50 min episodes ('borders') of Arise

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn I can't decide on what weapon I should go for in DS2. :(

Sterno

@Fluttershy Fists

Private Pansy

It is a prequel series I think?

Blem

@Fluttershy The "Alt+F4"

MBraedley

16:33

Ugh, nested select statments. WHY YOU MAKE ME DO THIS, PRO*C?

MadMAxJr

@Fluttershy Fire Longsword

StrixVaria

@MBraedley Nested select statements are worse than gotos.

Fluttershy

@Sterno No

@Blem No

StrixVaria

@Fluttershy The biggest 2-handed thing you can find.

Fluttershy

@MadMAxJr Are fire weapons that good? I just used standard in DS1.

GodEmperorDune

16:35

@StrixVaria phrasing

cc @uni

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria I was considering Greatsword again, but I don't know how long it'll be before I can get a decent one. There's a way to cheese one early, but it looks way harder than it's worth

MBraedley

@StrixVaria That's debatable.

But considering that this query works fine using a double left join (or double full outer join for that matter), and Pro*C won't let me do that, I'll take what I can get.

The processing time penalty shouldn't be too bad on this. I'm matching on a single column in both instances, and that column should be indexed in all three tables.

MadMAxJr

@Fluttershy I'm switching between it and a winged spear currently. It works for me.

Unionhawk

@GodEmperorDune I thought we were done with phrasing

Fluttershy

@MadMAxJr I do have a winged spear, I think. Is that a dex weapon?

MadMAxJr

16:42

It is. I think it's about 16 dex to use.

I like having a reach weapon to think I have some kind of safe distance on bosses

Since Halberds swipe instead of poke in DS2, I had to change.

Yuuki

@Fluttershy You can get a Fire Longsword really early in the game and it is spectacular for quite awhile.

6

Fluttershy

@Yuuki Hmm...

@MadMAxJr See, I prefer swipe over poke. Though I've never given a poke weapon an honest chance.

MBraedley

Fuck, I'm going to have to do the same thing for another related query. I HATE YOU PRO*C!

Yuuki

@Fluttershy It's not so much the Fire specifically as it is the fact that it has elemental damage.

Enemies don't acquire elemental resistances for some time so any weapon with element damage is great.

Heide Longsword is fantastic for the same reason because it has innate Lightning damage.

Frank

@Wipqozn Yeah, I'm in negotiations right now about how we're going to close the gap between what I asked for, and what they gave me.

Fluttershy

16:53

@Yuuki How easily can they be acquired?

Frank

It's not a job I want to do, but if you want me to do it, I want to get paid more than I am getting right now.

Yuuki

@Fluttershy Kill the first Heide Knight. So depends on how much experience you have with Dark Souls.

They're basically the Black Knights of Dark Souls 2.

Frank

I already have feelers out, if it doesn't pan out.

Yuuki

Oh, it's not a guaranteed drop in SotFS.

MadMAxJr

Yeah. SotFS changed a lot of things.

The life preservation ring is 14k to repair instead of 3k

Dragonrage

16:56

hi @John

John

hi @Dragonrage

Fluttershy

@Yuuki Ah. Dang.

Well, maybe I'll try for the Fire Longsword then. I have a Battle Axe right now, but it's not really working out for me.

Proposed Q&A site for users of Max Msp: graphical data flow programming language\environment

Currently in definition.

Wipqozn

17:12

@Fluttershy @Yuuki suggestion is good

@Yuuki wel that's annoying

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn there's still a guaranteed place to get it early on though.

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy Long Sword is good as always. Solid damage, reach, and moveset

Yuuki

@Fluttershy Heide Knight Sword? I don't think it's guaranteed in SotFS.

Fluttershy

@Yuuki Oh, no. Sorry, I meant the Fire Longsword.

MadMAxJr

Just have to deal with that danged fire salamander to get it

GodEmperorDune

17:23

@Unionhawk no, we were done with cc @fredley but phrasing is still on

Unionhawk

Oh

Well that's probably good, @fredley seems to be literally done with cc @fredley

My replacement earbuds shipped the other day!

@Chippies why is it age-gated?

Is the age-gate 13?

GodEmperorDune

@Chippies i don't remember any partial nudity, though i played it way back in the day

@Unionhawk i'm used to only M games being age-gated

Chippies

@GodEmperorDune partial skin-colored blocky pixels

Unionhawk

@GodEmperorDune Right?

Yeah, it's ESRB T, PEGI 12

GodEmperorDune

wat

GodEmperorDune

so this is one of those games that i will never 100% the chieves on

Yuuki

Pay money to speedrun!

Although, tbh, KoL does the same thing with IotMs though you can get those without paying real money.

Unionhawk

It age-gates to 13

wat

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki no encounter mode in a FF game is so much more powerful than an IOTM

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune I was more talking about speedrunning with paid items.

GodEmperorDune

17:47

@Yuuki oh, i see

djsmiley2k

helllyllllllllllo

Chippies

@GodEmperorDune you still need to fight the bosses with your lv1 dudes tho

Yuuki

I wonder if TAS runs will exploit the no encounter mode by doing some sort of spoof to get the mode without paying money.

GodEmperorDune

@djsmiley2k hey

how are things

StrixVaria

Was it Bravely Default that also let you set the encounter rate?

I seem to remember that, but after chapters 4-8 of that game it was pretty hard to remember any details.

djsmiley2k

17:54

better

wife is home

nose filled with foam

not in rome...

Fluttershy

Shadwen has a release month! And a demo!

cc: @GnomeSlice

And maybe @StrixVaria? You're a fan of stealth games, right? Like Mark of the Ninja?

StrixVaria

@Fluttershy I hate stealth games, but thanks anyway :P

Two keywords that immediately make me stop even considering a game are "stealth" and "survival".

two bugs

@Chippies Hypeeeeeee

Yuuki

@StrixVaria "stealth-vival"

two bugs

Maybe I will stream myself attempting an Excalibur 2 run

That would actually be horrible. NEvermind

StrixVaria

17:58

@Yuuki I had a friend recommend "Sir, You are Being Hunted" to me; I went to the store page and the first 2 keywords are "survival" and "stealth."

I asked him what on earth he was thinking.

He said he wasn't.

two bugs

All I know about that game is someone I really disliked kept hyping it

So I just associated it with anger

Chippies

@twobugs I don't think hype works on released games :P

unless you're hyped as it downloads
