Tchaikovsky is clearly one of the best composers, and anyone who says otherwise is a crazy person.

MadMAxJr

I think Steve Aoki could take him.

@Wipqozn what is the best time to see the dentist? 2:30

@Wipqozn He didn't do much (any?) solo piano stuff, so I don't really know his work.

Q: Do I always need to start at the begining when switching phones?

My phone is broken so I have switched between 2 other phones, and when im logging in I always have to start at the beginning, so I never get to a high level! Can someone help me?

I'll give it a few minutes.

I don't like having headphones on at work, though.

I find their claim that most players will never find another hard to believe because of the Birthday paradox

Kevin van der Velden

"Full HD 1080" "HD ready" ... "native resolution: 480x320px"

StrixVaria

@PrivatePansy If everyone's goal is to get to the "center of the universe" then players will naturally converge as well.

I assume you're talking about NMS.

GodEmperorDune

wait is this the one with user named galaxies, i.e. the "lol butts" galaxy?

Private Pansy

Yeah. I mean, people have really bad intuition about the probability of collisions

Wipqozn

@GodEmperorDune Taking me a while too. I'm now picturing a clock in my head.

GodEmperorDune

@Wipqozn say it out loud

@GodEmperorDune two thirty? too dirty? I don't get it

StrixVaria

@Wipqozn This is not bad, but not my "style".

I'm sorry you're so slow today @Dragonrage.

(Sorry, it was too perfect to do a second time. I'm going to stop now, though.)

not a drill, was "this is not a dirll", but also "this is not a drill"

@Wipqozn misery horse?

Kaz Wolfe

@fredley bash: kill: bridge: arguments must be process or job IDs

I actually could kil the bridge, but I choose not to

Feels nice to have the power. I can mod abuse everyone away.

Kaz Wolfe

@Wipqozn With sudo comes great responsibility

Wipqozn

I can't wait until I become completely corrupt

@Wipqozn "Until"...?

Kaz Wolfe

you're wipqozn. SE staff is root.

GodEmperorDune

@Wipqozn especially more mod abuse

Wipqozn

I should tell my boss I should get a raise because I'm an Internet moderator now

Tim Stone

17:22

You should, that would be hilarious for the rest of us

Kaz Wolfe

so, to solve mod abuse, we need other mods to mod abuse the mod abuse away.

You've got a diamond, and thus you should be paid in diamonds

@twobugs speaking of which, here is @Wipqozn's annual mod salary

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune 55 diamonds, impressive.

How many carats each though?

GodEmperorDune

GodEmperorDune

@twobugs well until SE reclaims it after a mod abuse spree

Kaz Wolfe

@twobugs Until they break down into graphite.

GodEmperorDune

@twobugs he was a great bond but those films were pretty weak

great n64 games though

two bugs

17:27

I really want to see them give Idris Elba a chance

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki "i believe we've found the bugs"

idris elba would be a great bond

two bugs

@Yuuki This is almost as ridiculous as the mushroom in the graphics card one

Yuuki

@twobugs Did I post that one too?

fredley

@twobugs Apart from Goldeneye

StrixVaria

Apparently if you rate a show 1 star on Netflix it won't show up anymore in the list of available shows. This will come in very, very handy once my daughter learns how to use Netflix. CC @Sterno in case you didn't know this or can verify.

two bugs

17:29

@Yuuki I think so

@fredley Okay yeah that's a pretty good Bond film

I just think of it more as a video game for obvious reasons

GodEmperorDune

@StrixVaria is there any way to lock your kid to their own profile? (and prevent them from accessing other profiles)

StrixVaria

@GodEmperorDune Hm, that's another good question.

two bugs

I think there are account management settings

Tim Stone

@GodEmperorDune Hahah nope

StrixVaria

Yeah, I have to imagine there's a way to password non-child accounts or something.

Tim Stone

17:31

WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT THAT?

sighs

two bugs

"Why would anyone want account controls or Seinfeld?"

GodEmperorDune

@StrixVaria you'd think so

Sterno

@twobugs WHY ASIDE FROM ME?

@StrixVaria Nice

Now I just need a way to mass 1-star everything

So No Man's Sky is about what you'd expect. Fun but gets samey pretty quick

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki that looks interesting

Sterno

I do not expect it to significantly reduce my Overwatch time.

Yuuki

17:38

@GodEmperorDune Just need to remind myself to not watch any other trailer for it.

Seems like one of those movies you want to go into with as little knowledge as possible.

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki oh other trailers show the aliens?

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune I don't know if there are any other trailers.

Q: Are there hidden grammar rules I'm missing when posting?

I posted this question 15 minutes after the game was released and got downvoted to hell cause I couldn't find a list of accurate controls on the Internet. Then came the edit. Apparently playing the game with someone else: "we" is not acceptable. And "sometimes" has been replaced with "sometime,"...

discussion

two bugs

17:45

@Sterno That's what I expected

I mean, it's a massively but generated universe. It's not going to have incredibly fine details

Sterno

It's not so much the details as the variety. There isn't a ton.

Anyway, it's fun for now

And naming planets and systems is fun

two bugs

That's also what I expected. People on Reddit seemed to think NMS was going to revolutionize Human Civilization though

Sterno

I named the "Rick Astley" system with the planets "Never", "Gonna", "Give", "You", and "Up".

two bugs

With that in mind, I'm REALLY excited for Star Citizen

There will be rioting in the streets

Sterno

PC will definitely be the superior platform for this if they don't bone the port though

Kevin van der Velden

17:48

PC is always the superior platform, duh

Sterno

Combat will be laughably easy on PC (and it's already not tough)

two bugs

Speaking of that, apparently the Telltale Batman game runs poorly on every platform

Wipqozn

@Sterno well that's good. I'm thinking of picking it up but I'm concerned about it cutting into my overwatch time.

two bugs

Xbox One version is even sub 720p (how does this happen in an adventure game????)

Sterno

@twobugs Ran fine for me for the 270 seconds I played it

Why did /r/mensrights show up 2nd in suggestions when I typed reddit in my google search bar?

two bugs

17:51

Eurogamer released a video titled "Worst resolution of the Generation?" for the Telltale Batman game and I didn't bother to watch it but that's a really silly title

@Sterno It knows about you

Wipqozn

@Sterno holy crap that's a gif

Sterno

Okay, you all have fun at work. I'm going to go play some No Man's Sky.

Q: What makes sentinels hostile?

Within the first two minutes of the game I had some sentinels shooting at me, and I don't know why. Before I knew it I'd completely depleted my mining laser taking them out, was out of shields, and only had 2 health left. Luckily, I recovered from that, and kept a wary eye on sentinels ever since...

17:57

They just want you to get off their lawn, @Sterno

Yuuki

Also, apparently the archive of Nintendo Power issues on the Internet Archives has been taken down.

Dragonrage

I need a good RPG game in which I can play a mage. Preferably not an MMO, because then I don't have to deal with people.

two bugs

@Dragonrage Try Skyrim with maybe a new mod to bring you up to 276

Jutschge

@Dragonrage Divinity Original Sin if you like turnbased stuff

Dragonrage

@twobugs i have some pretty decent mods for better spells and stuff, but i need a new storyline
