The Bridge

Raven Dreamer

22:00

@Mana I need to find better documentation so I can play with some of the effects.

Mana

@RavenDreamer good plan

gonna go grab food now

Raven Dreamer

@Mana Just grab it?

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer Does it use Soft-synths?

Raven Dreamer

You should try eating it, for once.

@GnomeSlice I don't know what that means.

GnomeSlice

Musagi has a built in synthesizer, I dunno how actual trackers work.

@RavenDreamer Software synthesizers.

@RavenDreamer You should read through this.

And the next few.

@RavenDreamer You know about ADSR?

Raven Dreamer

22:04

I know absolutely nothing.

GnomeSlice

Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release.

Raven Dreamer

Ah, yes.

GnomeSlice

Does Your tracker have a synthesizer built in? I assume it does.

Raven Dreamer

That's actually an option

GnomeSlice

Aha.

Attack is how quickly the sound reaches the max volume.

Raven Dreamer

22:05

For the individual instruments, anway

I think I did use some of that.

GnomeSlice

Decay is how quickly it drops off after the attack to the sustain volume

Sustain is the volume the note ends at if held

Release is how long it takes to fade to 0 after the key is released.

Raven Dreamer

Yeah, that part was well documented.

GnomeSlice

Read that article I linked.

Do you know about Oscillators and filters?

Raven Dreamer

It's these commands I've no idea what to do with.

code.google.com/p/klystrack/wiki/Commands

GnomeSlice

And Apeggiators, for chiptunes? (important)

Raven Dreamer

22:07

I don't know how to use them within Klystrack, no.

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer Panning is which speaker channel it plays out of (left,right)

Apeggiators are what make the bleedleedleedle chiptunes

@Raven, You should give Musagi a go.

John

@RavenDreamer Arpeggio means the notes are played very close together, but not at the same time.

GnomeSlice

It will be much easier for you if you have no ideda how any of this stuff works.

Raven Dreamer

@GnomeSlice You just made me google "bleedleedleedle".

2

@John Again, I know what an Arpeggio is, but I don't know what the command actually does.

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer Musagi.

Also, here's a thing about arpeggiating in Milkytracker

GnomeSlice

Unfortunately, there's basically no explanation going on, but at least you'll know what I meant by bleedleedleedle.

John

@RavenDreamer Just checking.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@GnomeSlice More accurate:

Raven Dreamer

@LessPop_MoreFizz Oooh! Oooh! Dibs on purple!

John

You can learn a lot about people by the colors they choose on a pie chart.

Raven Dreamer

22:18

@John You're green.

John

@RavenDreamer Erm...I was gonna say orange, but ok...

Raven Dreamer

@LessPopMoreFizz I got the schematics for a Custom-Built Speederbike yesterday!

@John Is your name John the Orange?

John

@RavenDreamer Well, no...

LessPop_MoreFizz

@RavenDreamer Yay!

CT speeders are nicce

Raven Dreamer

@LessPop_MoreFizz What's the market for 22 Titanium? :/

LessPop_MoreFizz

22:21

@RavenDreamer The market rate is you give me a few hours to run some low level ut missions.

Raven Dreamer

Haha. Fair enough.

Still 7 levels to go until 40, though.

So I've got a ways.

Slicing's maxed at 400, though!

LessPop_MoreFizz

nice,

time to ride dat money train

John

Someone's copy+pasted Wikipedia into a tag wiki...

Do we allow that or not?

Raven Dreamer

What tag?

user2334

@John In excerpts definitely not (Wikipedia requires attribution, which you can't do in an excerpt); in a tag wiki, if has attribution but is just solely copy-pasta, it's pretty useless. If it's just an excerpt as part of a larger, more useful tag wiki, it's usually fine. No attribution = no way either way.

badp

22:30

@RavenDreamer So much this.

Raven Dreamer

@LessPopMoreFizz Is it bad that I trawled Skyrim's dragon language for cool-sounding words to use in my Legacy name?

badp

It's like my lungs suddenly are empty of air

and my lips move without the collaboration of my throat. It's quite sad, really.

Probably not as sad as the death counter, which has reached way too high.

Why is "Updating Windows Live Essential 2011" doing "updating Messenger."

I don't have Windows Live Messenger. I don't want Windows Live Messenger.

DIE. DIE. DIE.

Q: Jakei Shardmaster getting ridiculous +DMG, where from?

Could anyone explain what's going on here? My Jakei Shardmaster has insane +DMG, but I can't explain why. It is not a buggy Surge:Moga 2 bonus or anything, I checked by killing one of them. I have another Shardmaster in play that does not get this huge bonus. The Shardmaster's abilities are: Mu...

Marco Ceppi

LIVE. LIVE. LIVE.

user2334

@badp But all your friends are on Windows Live Messenger: Microsoft checked so it must be true! Don't you like your friends?

badp

22:36

@MarkTrapp Friends? I'm not on Facebook. I don't have friends. I don't like anything!

Marco Ceppi

Installs Linux, walks away - You're welcome.

John

@MarkTrapp Alright, thanks.

Ronan Forman

@Marco! What are you doing here? Get back to room 271!

badp

And now after kicking me out of Movie Maker you want to reboot the system? Piss off

Ronan Forman

Shoo! Shoo!

badp

22:37

starts Soluto to kick away shit from startup before they have a chance

Marco Ceppi

Just going to leave this here, ubuntu.com

badp

@MarcoCeppi Call me back when PiTiVi or the inbuilt Youtube video editor stop sucking :P

(native Steam support a plus)

Marco Ceppi

(talk to Valve)

Hey man, they said soon - that's got to be like five years out.

John

@badp Hey, TF2 works. Do you play anything else on it? :P

badp

Probably before Half Life 3 anyway

@John I can't get sound!

Marco Ceppi

22:39

Switch now and you can say you used Linux before Valve released steam on it

badp

I mean, so long as the background music does play I do get sound. Then it either ends or I connect to a server and then it ends anyway. And that's the last I hear.

Marco Ceppi

For all you FSF/GNU freaks, "Switch now and you can say you used GNU/Linux before Valve released steam on it"

John

@badp Hm. I never use sound, so it stands that I would not notice that possibility. :P

badp

@John You must be every spy's wet dream.

GnomeSlice

.........................

badp

22:40

Remind me to backstab you more often.

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz Definitely more accurate. Nothing pisses me off more than the whole "HURR DURR GIRLS ONLY DATE ASSHOLES" stereotype.

Wipqozn

4 hours ago, by Ronan Forman

@John No, its says so in this cool 'game'

John

@badp Is that how I'm supposed to tell I'm about to be backstabbed?

I've noticed I get backstabbed a lot.

badp

@John Uncloak sounds are certainly a giveaway, yes

Wipqozn

@RonanForman: That was awesome. Thank you (from both myself, and a few friends I shared it with)

GnomeSlice

22:41

@Mana I've seen it firsthand.

badp

They're not foolproof (consider the spy set) but e.g. the Dead Ringer is super loud

Mana

@GnomeSlice Yes, that is because you only choose to take interest in completely insane women who are also insanely hot.

John

@badp Ok...I will have to try this thing you call "sound".

GnomeSlice

You're Goddamn right I do. =[

badp

Oh Soluto. You used to be cool.

GnomeSlice

22:43

@badp Trololol

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Just because some women only date assholes doesn't mean all women only date assholes.

GnomeSlice

Women who don't date ME date assholes.

Wipqozn

@badp I actually lol'd

LessPop_MoreFizz

@GnomeSlice Where is my downvote button for chat.

3

I need a fucking greasemonkey script or something.

GnomeSlice

@LessPop_MoreFizz =[

John

22:46

@LessPop_MoreFizz That gets starred every time you say it.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@John Because every time I say it, it's what everybody else is thinking.

3

John

@LessPop_MoreFizz Prolly.

badp

@John That's because, after all, there's no downvote button for chat every time he says it.

John

@LessPop_MoreFizz What does that make my :( then?

Ronan Forman

Oooh, fog and snow. A mysterious combination.

John

22:46

We have a very sad chat...

@RonanForman Ah the classic lack of context.

@badp Very true.

Wipqozn

@John If it helps, I'm usually happy.

John

@Wipqozn It doesn't.

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz Have I told you that you're tied with Tim Stone in my "best people in the chat" list? Because you are.

GnomeSlice

My new goal on the site is to make @Wipqozn unhappy.

4

John

is sad he's not on @Mana's list

GnomeSlice

22:47

@Mana .......................

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Sounds productive. I support this.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn starred that too.

John

:(

GnomeSlice

Told you.

Mana

@GnomeSlice And this is our 13th candidate for moderation, ladies and gents.

GnomeSlice

22:48

@Mana I withdrew, I already told you this.

John

@Mana What, @Wipqozn is entering twice?

GnomeSlice

I wasn't even in the running for a full day.

Mana

@GnomeSlice oh, right.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice thank zeus

I mean...

uh...

Mana

@GnomeSlice To be fair, neither was TomW

Wipqozn

22:48

Well damn. I'm not sure where to go with this.

GnomeSlice

The comments weren't very pleased with my nomination.

John

Nominations close in 21 hours! Eeeep!

Ronan Forman

Our chat is drunk, it's sometimes sad and often spews out drunken stars and offensive slurs.

Mana

@GnomeSlice Did you expect them to be?

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman I haven't been shouting enough slurs at women lately.

Wipqozn

22:49

@John also, I didn't star that.

GnomeSlice

@Mana I expected them to take me a little more seriously.

Wipqozn

I assumed you were whoring for stars, so I refused to.

GnomeSlice

But not really, I guess. =[

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Mana Only tied? Hmm. Trying to be better than him is too much work, so I guess I'll have to eliminate him instead.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice The other day you got suspended from bikes.se for asking how beat up a bike.

which was, by all means, hilarious, but still.

GnomeSlice

22:50

@Wipqozn ...Point?

It was a question about bike security.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Wipqozn Is it not deleted yet? If so, link please?

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz It is deleted

Wipqozn

@LessPopMoreFizz chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/35?m=3195487#3195487

LessPop_MoreFizz

I miss all of @GnomeSlice best capers and antics.

Wipqozn

You can see a preview in chat though

Q: How Can I Beat Up a Bicycle With My Bare Hands?

A friend of mine recently told me about a place he went for an interview where they apparently make a sport out of trashing locked up bicycles in the area. How the hell is this even possible? Do you just pull on it until it breaks? Do you need tools? And perhaps most importantly - should I ...

security

GnomeSlice

22:51

Bikes.SE doesn't even have a chat feed.

I thought every site had one.

Ronan Forman

I still think that's a legitimate question...

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Oh my no. It's only if they turn it on.

GnomeSlice

@Mana is so lucky he has me to give him girl advice.

Mana

"anything is better than awkward silence [with a date] even like 'so looking forward to sex?' " --Gnomeslice

Wipqozn

@John It occurs to me @mana just ignored this. how rude.

@Mana Words to live by.

GnomeSlice

22:54

WHO REMOVED THAT.

Mana

No. You're not typing that in here.

2

I removed it.

GnomeSlice

ಠ_ಠ

Wipqozn

@Mana That was impressively fast.

GnomeSlice

F----F----FFF-FF-FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

...FFFINE.

Wipqozn

NOOOO! I used up all my stars :(

Mana

22:55

@Wipqozn What would have been more impressively fast would be the flags and consequent removal/suspension

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice nice save

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn He probably had a deletion of my post queued up waiting for my next message.

Wipqozn

@Mana It would have been a new record.

@GnomeSlice Isn't there a "Ban Gnomeslice" button?

badp

Total time for the first half: 34:42,10

Ian Pugsley

@Wipqozn someone should put that on StackApps

badp

22:57

Provided I'll ever finish the second half

@Mana Bravo

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Wipqozn I smell a feature-request for meta...

badp

and I don't mean to say that using the retarded Brah-voh pronounciation. That's a genuine hearty Italian "bravo" applause.

GnomeSlice

Oh no... no no no Airmech...

Mana

@badp Aww, shucks. Thanks man.

GnomeSlice

Don't make it freemium...

x_x

user30

22:59

@GnomeSlice hahahahhaha. classy deleted message again from you

GnomeSlice

FUCK.

there we go!

I wish double fine would do something good and/or deep again, like Psychonauts. Iron Brigade/Trenched! was good, but just lacking in depth.

their new thing is some sort of unloseable theater game or something
