Oh hey, I think they're turning that short horror 'film' into a full movie

@Wipqozn That was a good short film.

Lights Out 2013

Context for those who didn't know it

And horror movies are some of my favorite.

I'd give it a try.

I've never been into horror stuff

3:10 PM

wait wtf

is that some commentary thing?

@twobugs I don't like jump scares, I like the atmospheric horror stuff.

Lights Out (A short horror film).

Oculus was really good, The Conjuring was pretty good, that kind of thing.

I guess I just end up either feeling like things are really dumb and not scary or they're way too much (atmospheric tends to be latter)

oh for fuck sakes IGN

I ahte your autoplaying bullshit videos

that's where it was coming from

3:12 PM

lol

@twobugs The really dumb ones are enjoyable for different reasons.

Arperum

what's up with this users posts? it feels like a kid posting stuff

@Arperum Well I've deleted that. It was complete junk.

along wit hliterally everything else they've posted

Arperum

@Wipqozn Yes.

"everything else" as in "the other thing", obviously

3:17 PM

@Unionhawk They have some deleted posts as well

WELL FINE

they haven't been back in 17 minutes, so they probably already got bored and left

Q: Can I transfer downloaded games on ps4

I have games downloading onto my ps4 in Europe and am selling the system and buying a new one in the USA because we are moving there. How do I access the games I bought on my first system as I want to sell the actual console. Do I lose all the games I have already downloaded?

> Are we experimenting with this technology at the risk of people's lives?

Seriously?

> The Associated Press reported that he was watching a Harry Potter video at the time of the crash, according to the driver of the tractor trailer who said he could hear it playing when the Tesla Model S came to rest "about a quarter mile down the road" from the point of impact.

Unless it's an op-ed, don't editorialize.

Does Tesla call it "autopilot"?

Because if so, that's rather reckless advertising there.

3:49 PM

They do appear to use "Autopilot" in official marketing material.

user4704

e.g., teslamotors.com/presskit/autopilot

> In regulator speak, full autonomy is called Level 4. Tesla's Autopilot is regarded as Level 2 technology, but many drivers are treating it as Level 3 and over-trusting the system.

Masking gender in technical interviews

@JoshPetrie Ugh...

"Assisted driving" or "assisted steering" would be a better description.

I personally am not going to fall asleep or watch a movie even in a driverless car until there are significantly more driverless cars than driven cars on the road.

user4704

3:53 PM

I agree. "Autopilot" is largely misunderstood by a significant percentage of the population, I'm sure.

[Teaser] Maxthor - Buried Deep Inside (Theme from The Summoner)

@Yuuki Agreed

user4704

Still, I doubt there's any legislation in the US against the name, or any regulations etc.

user4704

Probably it was just an issue nobody thought hard enough about, which is unfortunate.

Doesn't make it smart

If you haven't seen his LTTP one yet, you need to

@Wipqozn Every video on this channel is great.

@StrixVaria It really is

That's the channel that made me want Burnout Paradise, because he compared the open-world aspects of the new Mirror's Edge game to it and said why Burnout Paradaise was so much better in that regard.

Plus I've been wanting a racing game for a while.

Burnout Paradise is a good racing game

My favourite open world racer is still FUEL though

RIP

3:58 PM

@StrixVaria It was in the EA Humble Bundle. If you have that you already have the game

@PrivatePansy I haven't bought a Humble Bundle since Humble Bundles were a new idea.

I already got it this Steam Sale for $5, though.

Ah well. That was a pretty great bundle, especially since EA donated 100% of their share to charity.

Speaking of bundles, I have a sanic game to give away

> A core part of our game philosophy is making you, our community, part of the development process.

Essentially, "we want you to pay us roughly full-price for a game that's not feature-complete".

While I'm already suspicious of your game if you're in Early Access, if you're in Early Access and you have Steam Trading Cards, I'm super-double-suspicious of your game.

Weirdest Hearthstone game over lunch, also a long one

Guy slightly won due to luck, but I've never seen a deck like that

That's not me being a sore loser - he played a card that is 100% rng and got a few lucky picks

New season just started so no big deal, I was just baffled watching his deck

@twobugs fite me ~~irl~~ in hearthstone

I will destroy you

@Yuuki you can haz a screening (no details yet)

(if you want)

But yeah he played Yogg and got a board clear

4:22 PM

@TimStone Definitely do. But I'm a bit worried about whether I qualify. And also I've been sucking it up in interviews so far.

Do I give you my resume or someone else?

You can give it to me, sure

tbh we hired several people before they even graduated so don't worry too much about that

you can reach him at tpost@stackoverflow.com

@Unionhawk How fancy.

I mean, something else

Because spoiler alert they're not actually the same person

Eh, might as well send it. I could get a job at Stack Exchange!

4:26 PM

lol

@Yuuki Good luck! (Please don't ban me)

So how do I do this, email or upload an image to the Bridge?

:D

@TimStone WORKS AT GOOGLE: DATA ACCEPTED

@Unionhawk Did you know they have @google emails?

You cannot ban the broadcaster!

but yes, I did

@twobugs I finally got to play Warzone Firefight yesterday. I got so many REQ packs

@murgatroid99 You get bonus rewards from the 1st, 5th, and 10th wins

But yeah, even normal wins are bonkers

I think it's based on score and mythic/legendary takedowns

So according to Steam Support, I have 3 hours of playtime on Planetbase but according to my Steam Library, I have 2 hours.

@twobugs Yeah, I saw that. I've gotten 3 wins so far

But I also leveled/completed a few Commendations

The new commendations give gold or silver packs for every level

Ah, that explains it too

It's really easy to make commendation progress

Tanks and vehicles are amazing but some of the Prometheans just suck to fight

4:39 PM

I also finally finished the Grunt Slayer, Legendary Boss, and Warzone Commendations

You get a huge amount of exp for winning a match, too

silly question

if there was a program whose '--help' didn't list its options in a deterministic fashion

where would that program fall on the hitler-o-meter

Q: When does the Steam discovery queue card availability reset?

0

I am hoping to capitalize on obtaining as many trading cards as possible before they expire on July 4th. Is the gap between earning cards from the discovery queue based on a specific global reset time, or must a certain amount of time pass before I can earn cards again?

steam steam-trading-cards

@badp How nondeterministic are we talking here?

@murgatroid99 Related things are grouped together, but the order of each group is random

@badp you should be thankful the program has a --help at all!

@GodEmperorDune python! <3

5:15 PM

@badp oh my argparse stuff is never ordered in a useful way

we have a bunch of plugins. Each plugin can contribute command line arguments. A thing goes over the unordered list of plugins to collect all command line arguments, then dumps them to {opt,arg}parse (I forget which)

its basically "the order i added the argument handling when i was coding"

if we keep things unordered we have better guarantees that there are no dependencies on the plugin loading order

but then we get this kinda stuff

What if you keep the main list of plugins unsorted, but use a sorted copy to add command line arguments?

how many potential arguments are we talking? 10? 50? 100?

arda

5:16 PM

@Ash btw. If you lose the link to the drive image I uploaded, check it from steam mobile client- it always shows much more message history.

@GodEmperorDune 20, for now

that's like 980 fewer command line arguments than Chrome.

@badp i don't think that's large enough for sorting to be necessary

@GodEmperorDune scribbles, we need more command line arguments

Tarson

wrong chatroom

@badp you could add an argument to --help which determines if help should list them in sorted or unsorted order

5:19 PM

Why not just sort them?

@GodEmperorDune -🔢

So I'm on Ubuntu again

@badp Can you add a --too-cool-for-school tag which makes it render all text in AlTeRnAtInG cApS throughout the whole app?

@StrixVaria that's better left to toilet

@StrixVaria should be --tOo-CoOl-FoR-sChOoL, imo

add --metal for a better effect

@GodEmperorDune True, that way only cool kids can use it.

perhaps a --friday to put the program into "troll mode"

@GodEmperorDune --2-k3w1-4-5k3w1

5:22 PM

@twobugs that's the --L337 option

Otherwise it fails silently

@GnomeSlice command line arguments for @badp's program

@GodEmperorDune -🔣

5:28 PM

or a --retrosaur option that causes to the program to change its name

also chrome is pretty bad at rendering these emoji

@GodEmperorDune I don't know if emojis have an adequate icon for this

@badp what testing framework do you use for your python testing?

@GodEmperorDune i have written one doctest

I don't do enough Python to have a pick here

Used to use mocks for ganeti, didn't care too much for it

So far the tests to test the testing are the tests themselves

hmm

i recently started with pytest and the functionality is great but some of the documentation is not so much

> Very often parametrization uses more than one argument name. There is opportunity to apply indirect parameter on particular arguments. It can be done by passing list or tuple of arguments’ names to indirect. In the example below there is a function test_indirect which uses two fixtures: x and y. Here we give to indirect the list, which contains the name of the fixture x. The indirect parameter will be applied to this argument only, and the value a will be passed to respective fixture function:

Q: How to get custom (non-player) heads in minecraft 1.10

I have seen a tutorial to do this, the one with changing your skin, but I'm using it with /summon and the ArmorItems NBT tag (The head is only present while the player is playing it), and I want my map to work whenever someone decides to play it.

minecraft-commands minecraft-redstone

ah i think it finally clicked

indirect is for calling fixtures in a parametrized test

@Yuuki buffalo wild wings?

garlic parmesan is like the best

@GodEmperorDune Wingstop.

@Yuuki ah, i've had buffalo wild wings' garlic parmesan wings and they were meh

i think they are using shitty parmesan

wat garlic parmesan is the best

Probably.

That's probably more a function of garlic than anything

and decently cheap too

without any indirect parameter
