Q: How do I make a Minecraft server in 1.8 while the 1.9 update is in effect? I want a 1.8 server during the 1.9 times

user148232I made a server using the Minecraft website link that downloaded this thing and i followed the directions from a video and it worked, but i want to make a server in 1.8, not 1.9. How do I do that?

I'm here, being completely unproductive at work
@murgatroid99 isnt everyone?
oh man the phrasing in the overwatch channel on discord
00:19
@Dragonrage Is everyone what?
@murgatroid99 being unproductive at work
i got the edit in with 2 seconds left.
Most of my team is on a business trip/summit thing, or otherwise engaged
So, they're mostly being unproductive not at work
as long as you can fake being productive.
though sometimes it is easier to actually be productive than fake being productive
@Dragonrage then you are faking it wrong
With nobody looking over my shoulder, just sitting here and interacting with the computer is probably enough
00:23
just type into the bridge frequently enough
Plus, nobody really cares. I've already watched an hour of John Oliver videos today, after that one about primaries was linked above
@GodEmperorDune sometimes you are required to produce results, and those can be hard to fake
especially in a small company
well yes you should do work since you are being paid for it
Over the course of this week, I will almost definitely be more productive than most of the rest of the team. And that's good enough for me
It just happens that I spent today staring at pull requests that aren't getting merged because everyone's on airplanes and an issue list from which I've already picked all of the low hanging fruit
@murgatroid99 so how is being a mod for BCG working out? is it much different than being a high rep user and meta-ing?
00:29
@GodEmperorDune It's not really much different. The site is pretty low-traffic, so we don't really get many flags
And if I'm reading the interface right, there have been 2 mod messages ever
@murgatroid99 wow
The biggest difference is probably that I'm a chat mod
@murgatroid99 so you get chat mod flags now?
Yeah, and more information, and access to the Teachers' Lounge
@Frank pls stop making ghost appearances on my computer
i keep swapping back to this virtual desktop and @Frank's name is just hovering menacingly in a box.

Q: How can I show teammates health for Soldier:76?

SternoI've been told that somewhere, there is an option specific to Soldier 76 (and a few other specific classes) that allow you to see teammates health. For characters like Mercy it is enabled by default, but for Soldier 76 you have to enable it. I can't figure out where to go to do that though.

@SaintWacko sounds a bit stoned in discord
00:52
Hm
At some point Civ: Beyond Earth started black screening for a lot of people on startup and the only solution ever offered was "Well just disable fullscreen"
The fun part is if you alt+tab out you can see the game running fine in the background
@TimStone wat
@GnomeSlice good stuff so far and i haven't even hit the drop yet
00:54
Like having the game as your desktop, sorta. But clicking back into the game just shows a black screen again
AMAZING DROP
hot damn, good find @GnomeSlice
@GnomeSlice sweet
They have 2 more free albums on gravitas as well
That's one
the other one I might get banned if I link to
@GnomeSlice its all under the same name, right?

Yeah
i'll search it when i get home
I just got a Chromecast, apparently for participating in some work thing
Hooray

@GnomeSlice That's interesting. Developed by PlatinumGames, the master of hack-and-slash games. Who knew they would be making a licensed title of this sort?

what are you going doing up at this ungodly hour
@badp I couldn't sleep and I don't have work so I'm playing Overwatch.
I'll go back to bed soon.
oh it's just 2am
2am is fine
It's 5AM.
okay. still being up till 5am is still way better in my book than waking up at 5am.
even if you end up being awake at 5am either way
really it'd be better to think in terms of 5am vs 17pm
or 29:05 if you're so inclined
29 is a big number! I like big numbers.
I should probably go to sleep actually.

Q: Forced movement in skyrim

Tom HaffendenI'm currently trying to make time lapses in skyrim but i can't find a way to keep my player moving left, right or backwards like when you press the C key and continually run forward. Are there any console commands that will keep me moving without any external input or do i have to weigh down a key?

@KevinvanderVelden It should be less stressful. More "Get remaining things out of apartment." and "Unpack all the things" and less "Where the fuck are my movers!?"
That last one is a whole story in and of itself.
Uhhoh, is it story (or rant) time?

Mistakes were made on both sides.
@MBraedley ouch
That sounds... bad

@MBraedley Yeah, I haven't had to do a move with (professional) movers yet, but it sounds quite terrifying
Last time my parents moved they hired a couple of guys. One of them broke his thumb within the first hour, so then they had one guy...
@AshleyNunn Thanks! :)
When I moved out my folks place we rented a truck from u-haul. On the day we went to pick it up they had run out of trucks, and didn't have the one we rented.
It was like this, basiclly
12:02
I worked all night, then went to dentist and besides all the fillings that need to be done, he also wants to pull a tooth. Great...
Luckily we managed to just move everything in trucks, since w ehad enough, so save us cash
last time I had a tooth pulled, it was a milk tooth and I was so traumatized, I feared dentists for 10+ years
And u-haul will never get the business of anyone in my family or (ex)roommates in the future, that's for sure
I'm only upset that I wasn't the one at the uahul. MY folks went to pick it up.
I'm normally really nice with stuff like that
but, honestly, I would have loved to tell them they're all fucking incompetent idiots
My family moved with movers once, they uuuh underestimated just how much junk we had. They had to get a second truck and more people. I don't think they made much money of that bid =p
and that this is literally a seinfeld sketch, and I hope their branch goes out of business and they all live in the street
12:04
@badp Technically it was just my computer that was awake, doing backups
But then my son woke up at 6:30 so ughh
When you entire job is "Don't overbook", and you fuck that up, it's a problem.
and iirc they wouldnt give my folks a alrger truck for the same price
basically fuck uhaul, and fuck everyone who worked at that specific branch
there's a limit how much incompetence I can put up with.
That's why I stopped getting fast food
Got sick of teenagers fucking up my orders. Turned out good, since fast food is gross anyways. The rare time I've had it in the past 6 years, I'm like "why did I ever eat this"
There was this one speciifc mcdonalds too
It was right outside my work
It hd the worst service of any place I've ever been too
Ugh, I barely slept last night. Kept having nightmares or tossing and turning
100% the managers fault too
I'm going to need a lot of coffee
She was terrible. I remember one time the place was packed, nd there was only one cashier and they were in training or something. Folk were complaining, and one person asked "where is the manager?" and one of the employees went to get her then stopped and went "oh, she just went outside to smoke with her boyfriend"
and, well, let's be honest. 90% of places with shit service are shit because fo shitty management.
12:10
@Wipqozn People always overlook this
I went to the Burgerking here once and this kid said "Screw it, I quit" and jumped over the counter and left
Usually the managers
@TimStone That's awesome
"Why do my employees suck?" Well, you don't pay them or train them
It has new management now and is supposedly much better
12:11
@twobugs That's a problem my company has. There's a lot of folks in manager positions which just aren't qualified to be managing people.
I hate that management is just viewed as like a step on the career path
And not a career unto itself
I guess the idea is people are more likely to respect someone who is their more experience peer?
But it takes a very specific skillset
@twobugs I've had managers before who weren't remotely qualified to do the job of their employees. It's not good.
To be a manager of a department you should have some core understanding and basic competency of the tasks folks are doing, but you don't need to be as fluent.
and, most importantly, you should know where your shortcomings fall so you can include the appriopate team members in meetings and discussions when required.
@Wipqozn I have managers who totally were qualified to do the job 10 years ago before they started being a manager.
Which seems fair.
I feel like management takes a lot of special training to really have a net benefit, so just throwing people into management roles is ridiculous
Would asking about how to utilize a specific character's skillset in Overwatch be a reasonable question?
I'm not going to do that for each of the 21 characters, mind you

Q: How can I effectively utilize Zarya's skillset?

two bugsIn Overwatch, Zarya is a 'tank' character. However, she's one of the more confusing ones to play as her health total is quite low. She hinges heavily on her abilities - a shield for her teammates and a shield for herself - but these have very short duration and relatively long cooldown. As a resu...

@twobugs Yeah, she's tricky to play
Also I think Winston got a nerg between beta and now
Pretty sure his shield has a logner regen time
It's honestly really annoying, since he already felt like he was weaker than reinhart
His shield was not feeling very good last night
Winston's shield is something like 20 seconds after it goes away
12:37
I was dropping it and it would break so fast
And you can press e to blow it up I think?
@Unionhawk Didn't know that
I'd personally prefer having a Reindhardt every single day of the week
I could still hold out for a bit but I was more a harassing tank with his movement than a big wall of tank like Reinhardt
@Unionhawk y6eah, it's a long bloody time
12:38
I guess I agree with people saying Winston doesn't work good as a solo tank. Same with Zarya

@Unionhawk I think there are some maps where winstons shield is better. KOH, where you're often surrounedd, the winston one is better IMO... but the recharge time is so long
Yeah
But it's a 400 health shield on a long cooldown
yeah it really needs a buff
His gun is nice though
12:39
I dunno, maybe I've just never met a good winston
I feel like his ult is weird, too
Or someone who is good at Winston, I dunno
it's advantage is compared to reinhart is:
- 360 shield, not just front facing
- Winston can attack while using it
@twobugs His ult is really good at protecting and capturing points, sicne he can knock people off it
Mainly I've met that one dude who decided pushing far up alone as a tank was a good thing for the team
It shines on maps where the point is close to a hole
12:40
Winston's weapon can cleave with autoaim, making him great at close quarters
@Unionhawk Yeah that guy was awful
@twobugs It goes by reins shield too
He was worthless and after we won he blamed @Unionhawk for us... winning...
@twobugs Nah, he died and typed "fucking healer"
There was a Winston who ulted to take out my Bastion turret yesterday, and I had a Mercy healing me, and he couldn't do it before he got shredded. I could feel his rage.
And I revived him immediately after he did so, so stop whining kid
12:41
@Unionhawk That doesn't surprise me
Folks are always blaming healers, when the problem is you just ran outtoo far
in all games, not just overwatch
@Unionhawk Everyone knows that on defense, you're all supposed to rush up and stand right outside their spawn.
Healers can only heal so much, and healing can't cure stupid play
@Sterno There's been a few times where I've managed to almost solo capture a point as Genji due to people doing this
@Sterno This can be really effective if done correctly. It's just rarely done correctly :P
6 meis constantly walling off spawn
12:42
Like @SaintWacko's brilliant plan of being a sniper hiding right next to their spawn door
That is correctly
@twobugs It all depends on the map, and how observant your team is
On small maps where you can easily fall right back to the point it's good
That first point at temple of anubis is brutal on offense
On maps with a longer distance to the point you'rejust asking for a genji or tracer to neak by and cap the point
That 3 Torb team was really, really annoying
12:43
@twobugs yeah, and it's meant to be
Anubis has some great symmetra sentry spots
Because the slowdown on those things is really good
@twobugs but once we took the torbs down you get by
I think my favorite last night was when I was Pharah and @SaintWacko I think was Widowmaker, and we're waiting for the timer on attack and know exactly where an enemy Widowmaker is, and are all like "We can get her before she gets us" and she gets us both when the door opens
YOU ARE ALL THE WORST FOR TALKING ABOUT OVERWATCH WHILE I CAN'T PLAY IT :'(
and we could have captured that second poitn almost instantly if we all rushed to it too. We were just a bit too slow.
12:43
That enemy Widow was dominating us that one game
@KevinvanderVelden Good
@twobugs Yes
After that she seemed to calm down a bit
I also loved @Unionhawk's shrieks (at least, I think it was him) every time we ran into Symmetra turrets
@Sterno I only got to play part of a game with @Unionhawk
I won't be around tonight either, sadly
I'll be around tomorrow, so get hyped GET HYYYYYYYYYYYPED
I think my friends want to do stuff this weekend, but I mgiht tell'em no because video games
@twobugs She was good, but honestly a large part of it was that she could literally stand in the open on the street and snipe us because we didn't have anyone on our team flanking
12:45
@Sterno Yeah for sure, we just let her run wild
@Sterno They're goddamn mini sentries except with LASERS
and SLOWDOWN
@Unionhawk They die with like 2 bullets
@Sterno There were a few times we died due to folks not noticing or taking care of snipers
@Sterno one hit, pretty sure
@Wipqozn Yeah, but let's be real, he'll miss the first shot guaranteed
@Sterno True, @Unionhawk is too blinded by rage when he finds'em to aim
12:47
Worst combo to fight as S76 is Tracer + Lucio
GG, going to just go find a cliff to jump off of instead
@Sterno I usually play mercy so like it's always a dilemma to even press 2
Lucio is the best
@Wipqozn they do have 1 HP yes
@Unionhawk Mercy rocks
I'm really glad we have so many people that liek playing support
Like do I press 2 to shoot that thing, or do I keep healing someone else and hope he notices I'm getting shot by a sentry
12:49
I finally got to knock someone off a ledge last night as Pharah. That made me happy.
I love support, but it can be tiring if literally no one ele plays and you're stuck as it
Mercy is definitely more of a @Unionhawk character
Lucio is more my style I think
@RedRiderX likes Mercy a lot too
It's good because they compliment each other too
Mercy is great, her heal is super powerful
12:49
I'm so happy that now that Overwatch is out, I can watch POTGS on reddit all day
But I like Lucio's ult better
I think while we played together last night, Bastion was 70% of our POTGs :P
Mercy POTGs are hard okay
@Sterno He was
@Unionhawk They are. Whenever I get one as mercy I feel accomplished.
Except for that one where all I did was heal someone a bit, and then pull out my gun and fire off two shots which didn't kill anyone
I just need to get good at not getting killed by ults when I have res up
12:52
This was int he same game where I had a 3 person revive
I don't even undertand
Like, I need to get good at getting better than double res
I do think POTG need to be reworked a bit, so kills aren't the only thing that matters. Something to better recognize tanks.
@Sterno This wasn't as enjoyable as I hoped
I'm 1 minute in and figuring that out :(
I called it
I got 3 seconds in with no sound and was like "this is going to be stupid"
@Unionhawk This is what I find really punishing about Mercy
She's so dependent on the team for mobility
12:55
THERE, I DELETED IT AND SAVED THE REST OF YOU
our savior
We're better than a bunch of randos but let's be honest, we're still idiots running around just trying to be cool
@twobugs I think you guys are cool.
@twobugs Which is every group, ever.
@Sterno It takes them 2 or 3 minutes to even get to gameplay, and then they mostly just do 1v1
I was hoping they'd go into random PUGs and just be terrible at it
12:57
In other news I got a talking to for giving out too many of our header files to a client who somehow deleted them and couldn't even run our program
I was trying to be helpful, but I was Too Helpful :(
@Wipqozn As a support main, like, seeing a POTG and then have it switch camera to see like "okay, triple res and then now I got a guy up who got a triple kill so basically that's a +3/-3 assist"
I dunno
I feel like Lucio's is something you could get some shutdown points with
But the cast time is so long
Lucio's ult is the best for counter-ulting
@twobugs SO being helpful is a bad thing?
41 secs ago, by Unionhawk
But the cast time is so long
"Ryu ga waga" nah man
12:59
@Wipqozn To be fair, though, it would be really boring to watch a POTG that's just Reinhardt standing there with his shield up while everyone shoots it, or whatever'
I handed a pharah a shutdown because I didn't get it off in time
And she justiced me down
