"disabled friend"
I love the excuses spoofers come up with now they're actually getting banned.
 
@Studoku Assume good faith, be nice.
 
sigh... fine
oh you are kidding me
I make one comment about his story, then respond to him calling me a douchebag and you think that's worth a year long ban?
 
how is it not lunchtime yet
 
OO;;
 
Can we VNC this guy or something?
 
10:10 AM
You're not talking about the remote control app, are you?
 
Vote of no confidence
 
@Studoku It is your third ban for abusive behaviour, the length of a third ban is 365 days. I would strongly advise you to use the appropriate channels if you wish to discuss your ban.
 
absorbs artifact of power and hat and disappears stage left
 
Which channels are they?
 
@MBraedley You should move to Spyryfield, because you're pretty spry!
 
10:12 AM
@NBN-Alex Oi! that was my artifact! chases offstage
 
HAHAHAHAH I AM A COMEDIC GENIUS
 
And I like how the other guy is allowed to call me a douche with no penalty at all
Creates a contrast between you claiming there's a system in place and you doing whatever the fuck you feel like
 
@Studoku Responding to the ban message.
Or contacting SE directly via email if you so wish
 
in other news I did a review edit for the first time yesterday, hurrah!
 
nah, I'll just make a new account
 
10:16 AM
@Studoku You were given a warning on your first infraction, and not banned. Why would you assume we'd treat any other user differently?
 
I'm not even convinced this was an offense
so we'll agree to disagree I guess
 
@Studoku That's acceptable to me
 
What about calling for a VNC- can I do that somewhere or are mods here dictators for life?
 
@Studoku If you have issues with the moderation team, please feel free to contact Stack Exchange directly.
 
Thanks
 
10:25 AM
13 days until Legion
 
one more thing- is there a way to hide my answers since you don't want people benefiting from them?
while still being able to unhide them later
oh wait, undelete
ok, is there a quick way to do that?
 
No, your posts are wiki licensed, owned by Stack Exchange.
removing them in bulk is considered vandalism
 
yes my diamond
 
@GodEmperorDune lolololol
 
@Wipqozn I would be up for that
At least that's what we should name the election chat room next time
 
10:29 AM
In case people were wondering
 
urgh. windows.
 
this is apparently is so heinous that it merits a year long ban
 
@Studoku I saw it in real time, but seriously man, it wasn't cool
 
@Studoku Also, I'd like to point out, that just because you don't see a suspension on that guy doesn't mean we haven't taken, or plan to take, action
 
You have a suspension on me
 
10:30 AM
our first step for behaviour like this isn't to jump to a ban, we can let one or two incidents slide- and prefer to give warnings first
 
that's all I need to convince me you care more about your power fantasy than about helping users
 
14 mins ago, by fredley
@Studoku You were given a warning on your first infraction, and not banned. Why would you assume we'd treat any other user differently?
 
@Studoku Yes, because as @fredley already said, you're a repeat offender.
 
"offender"
 
We prefer not to ban users on their first offense
@Studoku You can think whatever you want.
 
10:32 AM
tbh, I'd just leave but it's not just about me
it's about a mod team with no accountability or deselection procedure I can see ruining this site with a power trip
 
@Studoku I assure you, mods are accountable for their actions, and mods have even had their diamond remove for going over the line (not on arqade, though)
 
and if I wanted to keep answering, I'd just make a new account, like I said
 
Aaand get banned for ban avoidance
 
Ah, right
IP bans
 
@Studoku I would seriously advise against this.
 
10:34 AM
that's the thing innate to my soul right?
ok, so I'm leaving permanently because of this bullshit but is there a way I can post a goodbye post on meta or something?

Q: How does armour damage reduction interact with other life types in Overwatch?

xanAs we know (for example this question What's the difference between life, health, armour and shield?), armour in Overwatch has a damage reduction property. Reduces incoming damage by 5 if the hit was 10 damage or more. If the damage is less than 10 then it is halved. My question is the spec...

 
please don't reply to people who can't talk back.
 
10:50 AM
{sorry about that, didn't know ><}
 
Yeah, you're banned from chat if you're banned on main, but #cacheing
From an old Irish religion textbook... I'm actually speechless. https://t.co/rst2Zrm9A2
 
11:08 AM
@arda that's pretty neat, now if you could also code in support for Logitech applets... ;) I'm just kidding, that's very cool, maybe someday I'll buy an arduino or something, I've been considering it a couple times already
 
@fredley Clearly it's dogs. They all go to heaven without any baptizism
 
@NBN-Alex My thoughts exactly, dogs is clearly the right answer
 
wow today is going slow
it's only just gone lunchtime, feel like I've been in work for an entire day

Q: Location glitching

MakaMidoWhen I am at home opening Pokémon Go to check for Pokémons around my house I'll always find my character walking around the house maybe walk to blocks away from the house and sometimes he even runs so fast to other places then the game sends me the driving alert. It never happens when I am walki...

Q: Can I access the in-game console in games like Fallout 4, The Witcher 3 if I plug a keyboard to my PS4? If yes, how?

Olivier GrégoireI own a PS4, and I recently read that I could plug a USB keyboard in it. If I plug such a keyboard in my PS4, will I be able to open the in-game console of games like Fallout 4, The Witcher 3, or the forthcoming Skyrim? If extra steps are required, such as modifying a config file, how can I do ...

I think it's a morning with cinnamon coffee again
I can just smell something off
 
STOP REAPPEARING STUPID BREAKPOINT
YOU ARE NOT WANTED.
 
Well that's rude
 
I am the ghoooost of breakpoints paaaaast
 
11:59 AM
@twobugs It reappearing every so often for days is also rather rude.
 
I'm the ghost of breakpoints future
In the future you will die because of breakpoints or something
Can confirm - coffee contains cinnamon
 
@Arperum are you using visual studio?
 
@KutuluMike Yes.
 
i have noticed that if you set a BP at design time, and turn it off at run-time, it will come back.
but if you remember to turn it off at design time and save, it doesn't.
VS saves your breakpoints somewhere odd, I think it's in the csproj.user file or something. you could also try just deleting that.
 
... What kind of dumb idea is that. But yes, that seems to fix it. (based on it not reappearing when stopping debugging.
 
12:08 PM
I'm not sure but I think it has something to do with the idea that you can't change anything at run-time, and that includes wherever VS persists your BP list. I'd call it a bug, personally.
 
@KutuluMike Except you can change stuff (when code is paused or when editing cshtml files or the like)
 
true, you can change some stuff, but you can't change e.g. project properties
 
Konami announced "Metal Gear Survive" - a post Kojima Metal Gear. Ugh.
 
@KutuluMike Yea, it's a dumb bug though.
 
it is.
i always forget about it.
by the time I'm done debugging I've forgotten I had to turn a dozen BPs off
 
12:11 PM
Yes.
There is a shortcut to remove all breakpoints though.
 
Django's URL system is... interesting
And by interesting I mean I don't understand why
Compare - Laravel's URL DSL - questions/{question}/{slug?} vs. Django's regex URL ^questions/(?P<question_id>[0-9]+)/?(?P<slug>.*)?/?$
 
What's that saying... "I don't always regex, but when I do I screw it up"? I think it had some particular syntax joke in it too
 
transcript Oh that happened.
 
@twobugs Laravel uses a Domain Specific Language to specify it's URL routes. Django uses regex.
I don't understand why Django uses regex.
The former is clean and concise. The latter is... regex
 
There's always a reason. It's not always a good one.
 
12:18 PM
It's not completely unreadable, and I know Laravel uses regex under the hood anyway.
But Laravel's syntax covers 99% of all use cases
 
What's not clean and concise about /http(s?):\\\\[a-z]*\.uhhhhhhhhhhhh/
 
I'm going to be so happy when I don't have to work on this feature which changes my resolution for reasons
 
In unrelated news, this is a thing that exists:
Ugh there's a fire drill today
And the only reason I know that is because they told us
 
Meanwhile:
 
Why they told us, I have no idea
@fredley Someone released an unsigned document that claimed to be Clinton's medical records
And it's like "I can make a fake document too"
 
12:28 PM
Donald Trump is the healthiest human being to have ever existed
 
@Unionhawk This was released in 2015 apparently
 
@fredley Yeah
I can see that
 
@fredley Dat gmail address
 
If you have a number in your gmail address... I'm sorry. I'm very sorry.
Especially your professional gmail address.
 
twobugs1@gmail.com
 
12:31 PM
I don't even have a two bugs anything gmail
I'm not very good at this branding thing. I need to recruit @GnomeSlice, he's done a great job building his personal brand
 
twobugs1@yahoo.com
 
2bugzzzz2000@hotmail.com
 
@fredley @live.com
 
Apparently someone I knew growing up was actually THE funkymonkey@hotmail.com
As in, no numbers
They were semi-famous around the school
This was back in the 90s when email meant something
 
@twobugs woah
I was too cool for hotmail, I had an @msn.com account
 
12:36 PM
I never had a hotmail account that was in use
 
I pretty much had a baptism by fire in tech growing up. My first email address had numbers, so I was mocked by the other kids
 
@twobugs rekt
I had a gmail account when it was invite only
 
I did too

Wait
Wasn't that already confirmed?
Like, last year?
 
Confirmation they will announce the confirmation at some point confirmed

smashes head into keyboard
 
@Arperum That's some skilful forehead typing
 
@fredley best use case of sandbox: bypass inf using stack imgur
 
@Unionhawk is it inf?
 
@fredley work filter best inf
 
12:39 PM
This API gives me a string value of an unrounded price (which I need to display) but instead of having used decimal for this, it seems to use doubles, and tostring a double. With the floating point inaccuraties that follow.
 
Pfft, who needs precision
more precision
 
499.56000000000006 is a perfect price to display.
 
@Arperum PRICES ARE AN INTEGER NUMBER OF CENTS/PENNIES. THIS IS WHAT PRICES ARE. THIS IS HOW MONEY WORKS. THIS IS WHAT MONEY IS. THIS IS WHAT PRICES ARE MADE OUT OF. PRICES ARE MADE OUT OF MONEY.
 
It was fun when I was able to explain what caused these the first day I was here. ANd have two programmers stare at you like I knew everything.
 
@Arperum If you're the best programmer in the room, you need to leave the room.
 
12:42 PM
@fredley That is one option. Or a bloody decimal.
 
@Arperum Pretty sure that's what the internal representation of a decimal type is anyway
 
@fredley I'm here as a consultant.
 
@Arperum acceptable
 
@fredley :|
 
12:43 PM
(actual footage)
 
I'm currently the only person in this room, so I should leave it then?
 
Unless the price is in souls. You can have a floating-point number of souls.
 
@fredley I am not the best programmer. Far from that. But there are some people with a serious lack of knowledge.
 
@twobugs ....xD
 
@fredley What's the exchange rate between souls and the GBP?
 
12:43 PM
@fredley You will pay for this one day
 
@twobugs He will, by means of Brexit.
 
Apparently 1 soul == 1 USD
 
@Arperum Well he's already paying for his vote in favor of Brexit - his economy is tanking
@fredley Wait, so does that mean that Dark Souls 3 is the best bargain?
 
@twobugs Maybe he's @PHP_CEO and that's a good thing
 
Since you were getting 1 soul per 20 USD

#BREXIT MEANS A FRESHLY MINTED THIRD WORLD ECONOMY WITH AN EDUCATED BUT POWERLESS YOUNG WORKFORCE! EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES AHEAD! 🇬🇧💫🏌
 
@fredley This links me with stuff related to peruvian sol exchange rates. Are you saying Peru pays with souls for their stuff?
 
I'm going to wear this hoodie nonstop when I finally meet @fredley
 
As a note: I have not seen as many UK cars on the road outside of UK as I saw this weekend.
 
USA! USA! USA!

OR SOMETHING
 
@Unionhawk This is the Olympics so I will allow it
For the record I don't hate sports I just have an extremely cynical view of the US major league sports circuit
 
12:48 PM
USA is still great outside the olympics!
 
And also the IOC, and also FIFA, and also most sporting agencies in general
 
Michelle Obama told me so
 
Basically, sports things I like: The athletes, the games, nothing else
 
fyi, this is how I imagine all of you look

Animated gifs are still horrible things.
 
What's that? More animated gifs?
Ah goddammit imgur
Why do you have to make this annoying
 
@Unionhawk No.
 
@Arperum so are quotestacks
 
12:51 PM
@sequoiad Yes. Suffer as I suffer.
 
onebox gifv
Or, I guess, I could just be not lazy
 
Waking up and seeing all the "The computer parts you spent too much money on are shipping" emails was interesting
Oh well.
 
I would laugh at this, if I didn't see many VERY similar outfits every time 'murcan tourists turn up in my city
 
I still need a cheapo 2nd monitor
But given that my primary monitor isn't even in stock yet, that can wait
 
12:55 PM
hides @uni's posts
 
Also I hate image results from giphy so this is the best I got
 
so like, do you lot wear things like this at home as well, or just when abroad to annoy the locals?
 
All right, I'm bored now
 
I'm pretty sure Sterling would spend more money on socks than I did on this computer FYI
@sequoiad I have never encountered a single person wearing those things
 
@twobugs Yeah
And?
 
1:01 PM
And cc @fredley
 
lol
the fire drill is apparently postponed due to rain
 
@twobugs I actually saw one, not quite this extreme but still very OTT, yesterday evening being helped into an ambulance
 
Welp I guess I can't support sausage party as a film
That's unfortunate

Q: GriefProtection 1.8.9 Sponge not working

@Unionhawk Why? I mean aside from the obvious
 
1:05 PM
@twobugs They apparently pulled nonsense like making animators work overtime for free
 
@Unionhawk I heard the entire production was incredibly employee hostile.
 
@Frank Yup
 
And probably borderline illegal.
Threatening to fire workers if they didn't work overtime for free.
 
@Unionhawk That's really bad of them
 
@twobugs Right?
 
1:07 PM
Sorry, PHRASING
 
cc @fredley
 
Who produced it anyway?
 
Sony I think
 
Well that's awful for the animators
 
Yup
 
1:09 PM
I hope they at least get, you know, paid
 
So that post I linked yesterday on reddit about all the NMS stuff that didn't make the cut... it was deleted, and the guy who posted it deleted his account. Conspiracy theories and/or drama ahoy!
 
@Sterno I love Video Game Conspiracy Theories
They are very good
 
Man @Unionhawk needs to watch misery horse
 
Do they pay their animators?
 
Yes
They credit them too
 
1:13 PM
I will watch Misery Horse
 
@twobugs Hooray!
 
@fredley Oh snap
What a concept
That's the even more ridiculous part about this, crediting animators is literally free
 
It's not free because it might make my name scroll by faster and we can't have that - someone

Q: When an egg hatches, is every pokemon in the pool as likely to come out of it?

Fredy31When an egg hatches, it's been known that there's a different pool of pokemon that can hatch depending on if its a 2, 5 or 10 km. What I want to know is if the chance of getting a charmander instead of a pidgey is exactly the same, or do some pokemon are rarer when they hatch. EX: If we would s...

Q: is there a faster way to give points for every one point other than to use hundreds of command blocks?

1:40 PM
@Arperum Hopefully get this asinine after hours inspector fee waived.
 
also this arduino (more like ESP8266 running arduino code) costs like 4 usd and screen costs like 5.10 usd (except shipping - costs like 2 usd - pay a few more for tracked shipping) and is well, has more memory etc. than most arduinos and has onboard wifi. there are links on github page
 
@Frank You had to get an inspection because your breaker died and they decided to add a massive fee?
 
@Arperum I have to get a city inspector to inspect it due to bylaws, and since it was after 4:30, there's a $450 after hours fee.
The only reason it was after 4:30 is because of the stupid city service phone line.
 
@Frank 4:30 is also rather early on the day. And that's quite the massive sum.
@Frank That is only available from 4:30?
 
@Arperum That's when the city shuts down, apparently.
@Arperum Nope, available beforehand.
But the queue wait was long enough to push it past 4:30.
 
1:51 PM
@Frank But they planned it at that hour?

Q: What are the benefits of making animals friendly?

C-dizzleWhile exploring a planet, I came across a couple of creatures that let me get relatively close to them. I was able to feed them Carbon and interact with them, which then displayed a little happy face symbol above the creature. While I thought this was cool that you could do this, I then noticed...

 
One thing I'm tired of is people just using pictures of Trump making a funny face as the thumbnail for ANY story about him
 
@twobugs Are there pictures of him where he does not make a funny face?
 
People who know more about Netflix - let's say I want to watch some awful, trashy garbage. If I just use a different profile it won't use it for my main profile recommendations, right?
@Arperum ...Well, those arguments aside
 
As long as there is material for the Dungeons And Donalds twitter to keep making amazing photoshops of Trump, I'm okay with it.
 
1:58 PM
Donald is a level 2 Cleric and his diety is Gold. Just Gold.
I'd joke about him being a Favored Soul but we all know that isn't true
 
@DungeonsDonald, Trump Dungeon
The beauty of me is that I’m very good at role playing. And satire.
171 tweets, 36.4k followers, following 182 users
It's a great little twitter.
It just spins his quotes into gaming related quotes.
And the RNC is his gaming party.
