@Yuuki Oh are they? If you grew up only ever speaking or hearing Mandarin, you could understand Cantonese?
But I go to Hong Kong and I have no clue what a lot of people say because they typically speak Cantonese rather than Mandarin.
@StrixVaria Absolutely not.
Whoops, typo.
Oh, typo.
I was so confused.
Man China as a region just fascinates me
Like the whole Mandarin/Cantonese separation is something I don't think we have a parallel with
It's more fascinating underneath the haze of pollution.
Well yes there is that
19:01
If I were going to learn an Asiatic language it would be Korean at this point because I cannot imagine learning a language without learning to read/write, and I doubly cannot imagine the amount of effort it would take to learn to read/write Japanese or Chinese.
My dad's family speaks a particular brand of Chinese called "Taininghua" (literally "Taining language") and I have a much tougher time understanding it than the Nanjinghua that my mom's family occasionally speaks.
Can we all just speak English pls? Your sincerely, the British Empire
Go home British Empire, you took all our stuff and put it in your museum.
It's just wild how China has been inhabited by these powerful civilizations and empires for thousands of years and we barely hear about it in western society

Q: Are eggs predetermined before you hatch them?

13aalIn Pokemon-Go are eggs predetermined before you hatch them? What I mean is, has it already been decided what you are going to get from that egg before it's been hatched? Or is it a random selection during the hatching?

Q: How to turn a branded warchief into a bodyguard for another uruk?

GhoohioI've set up five warchiefs that look how I want them to but after changing my mind I now wish to make four of them the bodyguards of a single warchief, but to do that I need to somehow demote them to captains without killing them so they can then undergo "initiation" to become bodyguards. All of ...

19:03
@fredley brexit, lol
@StrixVaria reading japanese is somewhat simple, as long as you stay away from kanji :P
@MadMAxJr Probably.
@Chippies The kana aren't that bad, but then you're not really reading full Japanese.
Interesting note, Chinese has separate words for the word "language" to indicate which part of the language is being talked about. Hua or 话 usually refers to the spoken language whereas wen or 文 refers to written. Yu or 语 usually means both.
And it's for your own good. All the places we invaded had all this war and instability, so it was for the good of your own historical record that we took it.
19:03
@MadMAxJr Go home british empire you're drunk
文化, pronounced "wenhua", also means "culture".
@fredley Something something Opium Wars.
@Yuuki The only Chinese I know is 我不会说中文, but it seems like even that is wrong since 文 refers to written language.
Look UK, I know you and mom are having a rough divorce neither of you really wanted. But I'm America, I'm independent now. I moved out of the house a long time ago and I've got my own problems.

Go on home british soldiers, go on home ♫
The only Chinese I know is "ni hao", which is all I learned from the RMT people in MMOs!
19:06
@MadMAxJr USA! USA! USA!
@twobugs same
@StrixVaria 中文 does also refer to the spoken language, so it's a weird thing.
(I only know the pronunciation, not the symbols, but Google translate is magic and knew the symbols from my typing in how it sounds.)
Is there an old folks care home for countries? We need a nice home for the UK where it can reminisce about the war and global exploration.
文 is also often used for both as well, but it definitely includes the written language.
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagic
19:07
You guys and your fancy languages
I don't need 'em! I let my fists do the talking!
One time my roommate ordered Chinese food delivered to our dorm room without telling me and also not being in the room. He expected to be back in time but wasn't. So I had a guy yelling at me in Chinese because I refused to pay him for food I didn't order. I said "我不会说中文" and then he got even more mad.
@twobugs terrific fists, the best fists
Luckily my roommate came back like right then, paid him, and he left.
Nobody has better fists than me
vote for @twobugs and he will fist our enemies!
19:09
I need the disapproval face, stat
PHRASING
hahaha.gif
@MadMAxJr We're not divorcing because of you
It's not your fault
Okay that's great UKdad, but you can't stay on my couch forever.
Building a fort there does not make it your couch.
19:11
translate: 我不会说中文
(from zh-CHS) I can't speak Chinese
@fredley If you guys were divorcing over the marriage expenses why are you paying even more on the litigation for the divorce????
@twobugs :(
Chinese has a bunch of different names. 中文 is the most common. 汉语 ("hanyu") is another (literally "Han language"). When referring to Mandarin in particular, you typically say 普通话 ("putonghua", literally "ordinary language" or "common language"). Cantonese, on the other hand, is 广东话 ("guangdonghua", "Canton/Guangdong language").
@fredley THANK YOU
19:12
translate: 广东话
(from zh-CHS) Cantonese
translate: 普通话
(from zh-CHS) Mandarin
I don't know what I expected
neat
I forget, does Mei use Cantonese?
@MadMAxJr I can understand her, so it's Mandarin.
translate: 我不会说中文
(from zh-CHS) I can't speak Chinese
Maybe that will help people appreciate my story.
19:12
translate: 我不会说中文
(from zh-CHS) I can't speak Chinese
All I know is she has that one line on respawn which sounds like "Quido Quidalla"
27 secs ago, by StrixVaria
Maybe that will help people appreciate my story.
@fredley Oh, I missed this.
Whatever, I'm going home now.
It's been a long day.
@Unionhawk ~memories~

我只能說我不能在中國說中國話
@twobugs Trying to find a soundboard I used to use to find the voice line but it's apparently down.
did you just send us the words "chinese words" in chinese?
@Kaizerwolf me?
indeed you
19:16
@Yuuki I could probably find just the translation somewhere but
случайных русских слов
@Dragonrage "I can only say 'I'm not able to speak Chinese words in China'"?
Also, that's in Traditional, btw.
@Yuuki eh, close enough to what i was attempting to say
@Yuuki @kai see translation
It's probably this
> "嘿,我又回来啦!(hei, wǒ yòu húilái la!) - Hey, I'm back again!
There's a distinctive lack of hard Q/K sounds.
19:17
sigh
Yeah well, I never said I was right
wat is all this
Don't want to start a new game while still watching SGDQ because 'distractions'
Looks like i get to have an interview \o/
I'm not even actively looking!
ne oluyor burada
19:18
"So, tell me. What's your best time on SMB 1-1?" Serious interviewer glare
I guess it could be this, too
> "嘿嘿来啦" (Hei hei lái la!) - Hey hey! I'm coming
Not really enough syllables
我希望我能明白這一點
3 mins ago, by GodEmperorDune
wat is all this
Interesting tidbit: I have trouble with written Chinese (my vocabulary is not that big) so I used to use Chinese -> Chinese translation so I can see the pinyin.
Then I know how to pronounce and often then can translate it.
19:22
I wish I had kept studying languages
My spoken vocabulary is far bigger than my written vocabulary.
Oh well
The fact that this is possible with Chinese both interests and really frustrates me.
@twobugs same. I'm having huge difficulties with german at school now :/
@GnomeSlice pretty mellow, i keep waiting for a big drop
then they like start it but don't finish
19:23
@Yuuki i would imagine this is possible in a lot of foreign languages if the person understand spoken better than written
well, provided there is actually a phonetic spelling of the writting
@Dragonrage 你应该知道你现在在用繁体字。你翻译的时候应该选“Chinese (Simplified)".
sorta related, @Yuuki i searched for chinese rap on youtube but all i find is korean rap
translate: that thing @Yuuki said
@Unionhawk You should know that you are now using traditional characters
Man I'm having so much trouble trying to help this guy install stuff
19:26
@Unionhawk "You should know that you're using Traditional Chinese right now. When you translate, you should select 'Chinese (Simplified)'."
I can't tell if his computer is just fuct or what
@Yuuki the second part translates to "When you translate should be elected"
Yeah, maybe we should help him
IN YOUR CONTROL PANEL, THERE SHOULD BE A SETTING TO CHANGE YOUR KEYBOARD TO US
@Unionhawk i don't have a control panel
@Dragonrage 选 or "select" can be used to mean "elect".
19:27
@Dragonrage OK, NOW IN YOUR AOL BROWSER, TYPE KEYWORD "LINUX"
Another interesting tidbit. Chinese for traditional script, 繁体字, literally means "complicated shape words".
@Unionhawk hang on, I need to hang up my phone so I can use my internet
New favorite gif
Hello?
ugh
Hello? No? Ok
FINE
I SEE HOW IT IS

Q: I accidentally log out and now game wont log in pokemon go

Ami AhoI accidentally log out and now i cant log in, i made new account and it logged in then i tryed login with my main account and its just keep trying but it didn´t go loading screen and it wont log me in

THANKS FOR RUINING EVERYTHING TAY
@Unionhawk imma let you finish
@Dragonrage OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
I REMEMBER THAT
19:35
This election is proving funny, if nothing else
@twobugs yeah, i can't believe we elected @Wipqozn and @Robotnik
@GodEmperorDune Seriously though
Don't blame me, I voted for ronnie
I voted for ronnie too
@Wipqozn we needed someone to make us pro much, not a bowtie wearing hipster
19:38
#twobugs2016
Bowties are cool
Plot twist. @WipqoznsSocks is ronnie
I, for one, think we should have elected @fredley
@twobugs I wish Warlocks had a heal spec. Right now all the healers seem to work off the same "purity" and "harmony" theme.
@Wipqozn why would we want to elect @fredley? Then we would've had a Brexit and left the SE network.
19:39
@Yuuki Eh, I think Shaman does the least
But it's a problem they've discussed before
@twobugs Still the same kind of harmony with nature thing that Druids have going on, I think.
They don't like how much of Paladin/Priest stuff is "____ of Light" or "Holy ____"
But at the same time, it's difficult to really name them better things while maintaining the strong themes they want
they should make a class entirely based on memes
oh wait, pandaren
Also Discipline Priest is some goofy hybrid DPS/Healer. One of your primary heals is Shadow Word Pain, I think
@Yuuki a "Your body will do as I tell it to! NOW FIGHT" thing?
19:41
TIL no game mechanic has existed before Dark Souls https://t.co/hvPao0B6XD
TIL
@Unionhawk Ahahahahahahaha
Also you don't lose equipment when you die in dark souls so I don't know what the fuck those articles are talking about
Games that did not exist before Dark Souls: All of them
@Unionhawk Probably talking about the souls currency, but AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@Unionhawk if anything it is closer to eve online
19:43
@Yuuki Yeah but that's still a really dumb comparison
@Unionhawk but comparing things to dark souls is the dark souls of clickbait
i mean it got us to click on the twitter link
Well the twitter link is making fun of it
I don't think your argument is very strong
It is clickbait though
Like, that's been a mechanic in games since a long time ago
@twobugs clicking to see the article ironically or unironically all looks like clicks to advertisers
19:47
At least Diablo II actually which is 2000
@GodEmperorDune It's a screenshot of the article
@GodEmperorDune You're so old sometimes
NO CLICKS FOR ADVERTISERS
We need to find some good Elderly Games for @Sterno and @GodEmperorDune
@twobugs urmom is older than me
My mom can correctly identify screenshots
19:49
meh i'm only half paying attention while i watch bojack horseman

Q: How do I get a fluffalo off of my ship?

ReafexusI put my Fluffalo down in my ship but I now have a colony to put it on instead. Is there anyway for me to collect it and move it? Killing it with lava appears to be my only option although that is a waste of Pixels.

@GodEmperorDune Ah yes, another thing invented by Dark Souls
@Unionhawk groan
@Unionhawk Memecenter Memecenter.com
19:50
@Unionhawk cc @Wipqozn
@twobugs I tried to find one without that
I failed
TIL @Unionhawk and @Dragonrage are the same groan inducing entity
I only tried for like 3 seconds
@Unionhawk Excellent
I'm still waiting for 4chan and 9gag to unite, creating 13chag
19:56
@twobugs @Wipqozn @fredley there are some LA refrances in here that don't add up. You can't take the 134 to the 10, they are parallel. and if you take the 134 to the 101 you can get to the beach
I'm going to assume that is the joke
To serve to confuse and/or make fun of LA people
Let's assume make fun of if only because that's funnier
@Unionhawk damn, i guess i am caught then
but bojack horseman is suprisingly good satire
20:13
I really hate twitter accounts that first post good content then just post sponsored stuff.
one example being club penguin bans (nsfw text), other being stock image stories (nsfw text - still posts regular stuff, but not even close to humor level of a month ago and retweeting sponsored stuff now)
selling out is the capitalist way
Brought to you by Pepsi.
SGDQ was sponsored by Pepsi
Not Mtn Dew?
Or does Pepsi own Dew
20:18
OH you were serious
So that's why they played Pepsiman
No, they played it because it's a meme game
If that's all the sponsorship Pepsi asked for then good on them
@twobugs its all a conspiracy by big soda
Wow how deep does this trolling go

A: What causes signal 'SIGILL'?

DabblerIt works now. For anyone else struggling with Android/NDK/GCC/Eclipse, here's how I solved it: Bury a dead cat at midnight when full moon Restart the Android device emulator Haven't verified if both steps are really necessary, and if not, which one is redundant.

20:20
@twobugs it's @fredley all the way down
@Wipqozn uwot
Huh, you'd think that clearly joke part would be edited out by now but
@Wipqozn The good old days of 2011, when funny answers were encouraged and nobody actually cared about quality
Shut up and take my upbacons,,,,xD
I almost want to submit a suggested edit with edit comment "pls"
but lazy
20:21
plsdo
It doesn't even answer the question
@murgatroid99 self answered bias
That's true
It asks "what causes this" and solves "how do I fix this"
a self answered question with an XY problem :D
20:24
It's spectacular
Really, it is
we must send more upboats
No
I refuse
@Unionhawk that's pretty trashy of you
Mostly on the grounds of JESUS CHRIST IT'S GOTTEN 6 UPVOTES SINCE THE TURTLE POSTED THAT
I have not upvoted it
20:25
My guess is it came up in another room
Yeah, Hitlers Anonymous
@Wipqozn, @Sterno, @GodEmperorDune all voted it up
@twobugs lies
I'm not even srue what we're talking about anymore
ohhhhhh that post
20:26
there's no way to be srue
The thing YOU posted!
I thought @Unionhawk was talking about one of his posts
I was so confused
@twobugs Yeah but I don't listen half the crap I say
But speaking of my posts, I should write up an answer for that one question that I said I was going to do that's going to be really quick and hopefully get me at least 1 closer to tag badge
20:28
I should write up answers but I never see questions I can answer
@Dragonrage Negatory
i think POGO is dead, we're back to number 4 in traffic
@GodEmperorDune Or we just have the answer to every question anyone can think of about the game
@GodEmperorDune Once the nearby thing starts working again, we'll have more.
20:30
@murgatroid99 but people visiting still improve traffic
@Frank Yea, we have more questions than there are lines of code in the game.
Did Trump just seriously suggest that killing Hillary is the only way to prevent her from picking supreme court justices?
> "If she gets to pick her judges," Trump said, "nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is."
@MadScientist link?
hyperbole
@MadScientist wot
@MadScientist He could have been talking about killing the justice candidates instead
i mean that's more advocating for a violent uprising than killing clinton but hey he was "just joking" and "sarcastic"
@MadScientist second amendment was gun laws right?
@arda yes
> In a statement "on dishonest media" released the same day by the Trump campaign, spokesman Jason Miller claimed that Trump was actually referring to the "amazing spirit" and "unification" of gun owners.
20:33
@GodEmperorDune yeeah
this looks like it is just about to hit all the mainstream media
this reminds me of when they asked him about why his supporters were beating up brown people and trump said something about "they're passionate"
@GodEmperorDune But they're unified specifically around the cause of being allowed to own and wield deadly weapons
rip
@GodEmperorDune any relation to John Miller?
20:35
@Unionhawk that was my first thought
@murgatroid99 aren't most weapons deadly?

> The Clinton campaign, meanwhile, in a statement from campaign manager Robby Mook, called Trump's remark "dangerous."

"A person seeking to be the President of the United States should not suggest violence in any way," Mook said.
@Dragonrage Firearms are particularly useful primarily because they require neither strength nor training to be deadly
@Dragonrage aren't weapons designed to be lethal?
20:37
i'm trying to watch the full trump speech to see if context makes any difference
@GodEmperorDune The rest of it will just make your head hurt
Man, I used to joke about a 'No Child Left Unarmed' program but Trump might just do it.
He knew what he was saying and intentionally put in distancing words so it's "not his fault"
@TimStone yeah i know, but i still try to argue with trump people and need my ammo
@GodEmperorDune Trump has context?
20:38
@TimStone he always does this
its a long rambling mess of bullshit
@GodEmperorDune I stopped arguing with trump people a long time ago
er, 3 days ago
Whatever
Same thing
ugh my head is starting to hurt
Quit now while you're still ahead
but then again trump people are probably a minority in your state so it's probably easier
20:41
i mean everything is correlation/causation fallacy
Trumplation/Trumpsation fallacy
and is there some sort of logical fallacy called "making up crazy shit?"
@Unionhawk hue
oh again with the mystical plant building friend of his
He got the nomination and now he's in like Golden Sonic levels of crazy. Seriously wondering if he's intentionally diving.
Latest tag wikis are copypasta from Wikipedia.
They need another rejection.
Also, bad @Dragonrage for approving them.

now he's talking shit about voter ID (otherwise someone will vote 15 times for hillary)
Well we already know the election is going to be rigged
That's his endgame grand strategy
at this point
prove that the election is rigged by losing in a landslide
20:47
oooh so tthis was the source of the original wipgozn
oh now instead of "crooked hillary" she is "unstable hillary"
@GodEmperorDune I blame the guy who ramped up the price of cancer medication and tried to revive harambe
That guy has officially lost his shit I think
he made a speech about how he knows more than doctors without any license etc and how hillary is sick and shouldnt be trusted as president
@GodEmperorDune I really don't think that attack can work when he's a perfect example of unpredictability and just outright craziness
20:49
@MadScientist yeah i don't see it either
his campaign staff must be so pissed
every time hillary screws something up, he gaffs bigger
and the 2nd amendment remarks on Clinton are exploding all over the media, that should certainly hurt him, maybe even with high level republicans
can we just shut down USA and open it again and hope that the virus goes away?
@GodEmperorDune good news for them they'll still get paid by recurring payments that cannot be canceled
@Unionhawk it can hurt their employability later
That's true
20:51
again with the refugees == ISIS soldiers stuff
We don't know who these people are! There's no screening!*
and then he mentions terrorist stuff by people who are not at all refugees!
*there's years of screening you fool
@GodEmperorDune is there a link to watch?
@Unionhawk and there is a ton of paperwork and stuff after they get here
they have to prove where they live and where they work and all that stuff
20:53
Rejects needed on this, this, this, this, and this
I will make sure to be more careful in checking the content of those next time
@Dragonrage wikipedia sounds a particular way
@Dragonrage For tag wikis, I generally just copy the whole thing and Google it.
If there's nothing that's a verbatim match in the first few results, I figure it's fine.
