What's with these examples? Why would anyone seriously have this dilema? "She considers the use of a floppy disc drive and a hard disc drive."
Also does this remind you of anyone?

Vegetable, Demon, Undead, Animal, etc. - does anyone know what ALL of the monster taxa are? I'm working on a Chef skill for brewing and frying chunks of live monsters in combat, damaging them and creating consumables.
You'd think the taxa would be listed at one of the several Dredmor wikis that ...
I hope your night wasn't filled with as much oddness as mine. I think sitcoms with low-budget special effects are kinda the limit for me. I also ran into the employed equivalent of the "Late to school, forgot homework, and didn't study for test" dream.
@DaveMcClelland More like "You had some paperwork due for both rchern and Michael Pryor from back when you were first employed". Also, I'm extremely baffled at how I did it, but I managed to be late on a commute to a work-from-home situation. It was not a pretty sight.
@FallenAngelEyes I was awake. Just... moving so terribly slowly. Apparently even in my dream, every organ in my body was opposing my intention to be mobile and active.
@GraceNote oh, that image is actually kinda recurring in my dreams. There's imminent danger and I'm moving slower and slower, and then I switch to the next section of black screen.
Two days ago I had a dream where among other things, I had a lavish basement that had two guest rooms, one of which had a King Size bed. It was superb.
@badp Sluggishness is actually a rarity for me, it's not something I'm used to in dreams.
Though I don't think there'll ever be anything I'll get used to in dreams.
except it's a little bit too hot, and reducing hot water doesn't give me enough water, and increasing cold water just a little bit gives me freezing water
what's worse, the outcome is (naturally) delayed by 10 seconds or so.
@badp I'm no plumber but I always figured that the final water flow was regulated separately from the two pipes so that you could just focus on the temperature, not the flow as well.
Twice I've attacked a creeper with my sword of sharpness and knockback, and twice whilst still far away from me it's exploded.
Is this coincidence or does the knock back set the creeper off/not reset the distance from Steve?
Whenever I post something in chat stating I'm not sure if this is grammatical correct, what I really mean is "Arda, is this sentence grammatical correct?"
@Wipqozn I think it looks wrong because it looks like "Since I can't (rest) or (sleep in a dungeon in ADOM)" instead of "Since I can't (rest or sleep) in a dungeon in ADOM"
After this message appeared in the star list, I noticed that the text word-wrapped off the first line (they usually appear in line with the star count). Normally this makes sense for words that exceed the length of the current line, but since the word was longer than the length of an entire lin...
I've started to play Brogue (never played other roguelikes more than a couple of hours) and I'm a little confused to how often should I search for traps/secret doors.
In some points I must do it in order to reach the stairs, but otherwise I may spend 5-10 turns searching in suspicious rooms just...
@DaveMcClelland I am guessing it is like Nethack, where the 's' key is the command for search, so people sometimes write it like that to say that "search" is a command instead of a general game tactic
@Wipqozn Combination of both. I did some of the stuff I had to do today, but I just feel ugh now. I don't even have the oomph to game, which is... yeah. Not normal for me.
I like the spirit behind this, be in reality, what proponent of SOPA is going to care?
SOPA Proponent: "Oh well look at that. They're going ahead with SOPA and they took themselves down. Makes our job easier!"
There must be more effective ways to protest SOPA then shutting down the plac...
I have been completing Aela's quests having completed the main Companion questline in order to obtain the Totems of Hircine.

@RonanForman I don't want to name names, but let's just say that members of my team were routinely asked to work sometimes 18-hour days. they'd go home at 3am and catch a few hours sleep before going back to work at 8am
one day my boss came to me to get a status update, and about 5 minutes in he had to excuse himself so he could go throw up in the bathroom
@IanPugsley no, I just have downtime from time to time. Some of the things I work on have long cooldowns where I can't get much done.
that and for a few weeks around christmas I was on vacation
I end up working weird hours sometimes too, so some hours during the day I'm not working, and some hours in the evenings I am
well, and in my off time I do a lot of kid babysitting, which means I generally can't get involved in anything gaming-related (unless it's laptop portable and turn based) so I tend to have time for question answering and research instead.
@agent86 I'd have to start over from scratch (my partially complete ME2 save is lost to the sands of XBox hard drives), and if I'm gonna do that, I'd rather do it on PC
so I've been waiting to get it on sale (and ignoring it when it was on sale)
@John I seem to remember a couple of the mods discussing this at one point, and grace (don't want to ping her) said that mods can gain flag weight, although it's kinda/sorta cheating.
@John This may not be what you're asking, but I believe spam/offensive flags don't work the same as other flags - instead of requiring mod attention, after a certain number of them the system will auto-kill the flagged post.
@RonanForman Also the shadow on the neck seems a bit off. If your light source is coming from upper left, seems like you should have some more diagonal shadowing connecting the strips of shadow near his upper jaw and back of his neck
You have to do "inoccence lost", then you sleep until they contact you. They will give you the awnser. I think you have to have the mace of molag bal. To get it, complete the house of horrors. and you get saviours hide complete I'll let moonlight.
The new update for Super Crate Box mentioned that there were now more characters to unlock.
I have been playing for a while now (even before the update) and never unlocked new characters.
What do I have to do to unlock new characters?
Potions and certain items grant benefits like enhancing smithing or having increased health generation for a certain duration. How is this time measured? Is this clock time or in-game time? Does time spent in menus count against the given time?
I managed to pick an Expert-level lock while rummaging through Mzulft and found a Mzulft Room Key. What's it used for?
(Note that I'm not talking about the Mzulft Observatory Key, which is part of the quest line for Mzulft.)
I think its amusing that on spawning your tombstone maintains your momentum at the time of your death. This can cause it to go careening off the screen if you're like me and die by falling while zooming along with Hermes boots.
hmm, no @AshleyNunn in chat at the moment. If you see this later, I hate my answer and I don't have the time at the moment to fix it, so I have deleted it for the time being.
Free and open-source software (F/OSS, FOSS) or free/libre/open-source software (FLOSS) is software that is liberally licensed to grant users the right to use, copy, study, change, and improve its design through the availability of its source code. This approach has gained both momentum and acceptance as the potential benefits have been increasingly recognized by both individuals and corporations.
In the context of free and open-source software, free refers to the freedom to copy and re-use the software, rather than to the price of the software. The Free Software Foundation, an organizati...
I would like to know how I can accomplish the following:
Start 'listen' (non-dedicated) Quake 3 Server using a config file (rather than manually entering settings each time)
Setup bots in the config file
Setup teams in the config file (e.g. CTF game)
Can someone point me to an example of how ...
In the GM games I've watch it's very rare to see a game ending in less than 10 mins. They seem to like going two base first before attacking.
Even if one player is Zerg, they still go with the early 2 base and the Zerg doesn't ling rush at all, even if it seems like a logical choice considering ...

@agent86 No worries. I figured from your comment about data being a mess that it was probably something like that. Thanks for trying, though! I really appreciate it.
@AshleyNunn I'm confident that a) your high score in a given level unlocks characters and b) that the total amount of crates you've collected unlocks weapons. Just not confident enough for it to be the answer of record :P
