HAH, 8 QUESTIONS.

@StrixVaria By the way, there's one actually "useful" reason for asking that question about breast physics.

Knowing which outfits disable the effect can make it easier to create custom outfits that don't exhibit strange behaviour when applied to the character's animation.

Tim Stone

Only $4 shipping? What a great deal!

@TimStone buy.com. Seems legit.

@GnomeSlice why not?

GnomeSlice

@badp Yeah, I dunno. Did you actually visit the link though.

All .com english word domains are taken, that means somebody has to own buy.com or eat.com or pay.com

@GnomeSlice yes

badp

@YiJiang That happened in like 1998?

@YiJiang Oh yes.

Single words, anyway.

badp

13:43

@YiJiang okay, just .com, corrected

GnomeSlice

@badp I'm still not entirely sure I actually believe that, to be honest.

badp

@GnomeSlice it can be easily tested in bash with abundant use of dig or whatnot

GnomeSlice

@badp I'm not sure what either of those terms refer to.

Tim Stone

Even xylophone.com is a parked domain, apparently.

Morning @JuanManuel.

Tim Stone

Arda Xi

@GnomeSlice Bash is the default Unix shell, in this case it means its scripting language. Dig is a Unix command to look up domain records.

GnomeSlice

What's the markup for that? I don't know how to do it in comments, questions, or chat...

Sterno

Arda Xi

On chat or posts, but not comments, indenting with four spaces works too.

GnomeSlice

@ArdaXi Multiline?

Yi Jiang

13:55

But not in comments

Arda Xi

@GnomeSlice Not necessarily.

@YiJiang I added that in right before your message.

GnomeSlice

@ArdaXi I mean, does that support multiline text.

Arda Xi

@GnomeSlice Oh, yeah. If you paste multiple lines in chat, it'll automatically give you the fixed font option.

main( ) {
  printf("Hello world");
}

GnomeSlice

main( ) {
printf("Hello world");
}

??

TylerShads

or you could just use back ticks

GnomeSlice

13:57

Oh, you mean you don't have to do it with the 4 spaces.

I never noticed that button before...

`main( ) {
printf("Hello world");
}`

@TylerShads Not for multi-line stuff, apparently.

TylerShads

when you make your first new line
shift + enter
you will see a new button that says
fixed font

GnomeSlice

@TylerShads Neato.

Fixation (psychology)

Fixation is a concept originated by Sigmund Freud (1905a) to denote the persistence of anachronistic sexual traits'. Subsequently '"Fixation" acquired a broader connotation. With the development of theory of libidinal stages...the term came to mean a persistent attachment, not only to the specific instinctual aims of a particular era, but, instead, to the entire complex of self and object relation' at that time. More generally, it is the state in which an individual becomes obsessed with an attachment to another person, being or object (in human psychology): 'A strong attachment to a per...

@Sterno In defense, the answer isn't bad in terms of the question it is attached to, so it's not really easy to downvote it when its only flaw can be said to be the question.

Sterno

@GnomeSlice Do you actually expect that there's answer to your latest question other than "No"?

I have one sentence answers that contain enough of a useful facet as to earn lots more upvotes than some of my longer and more in-depth answers.

Obviously, the 'stealthily' fails after admittance of the fact, but prior to such, it was in fact stealthy, as evidenced by the fact you had to point it out before it became known.

Wipqozn

I'm assuming you haven't watched Invader Zim @fredley?

Grace Note

Oh man, that last sentence is in trouble too!

Arda Xi

@JuanManuel In this particular case, it probably falls under fair use, which overrules any licence the copyright owner decides to put on the work.

Besides, I'm not sure whether a legal document is still valid if it contains falsehoods. "Breaking any of these rules is in direct violation of copyright law." is simply not true, because of Fair Use.

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn In the US, whenever you come up with an original work, you automatically have a copyright.

Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works

The Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works, usually known as the Berne Convention, is an international agreement governing copyright, which was first accepted in Bern, Switzerland in 1886. Content The Berne Convention requires its signatories to recognize the copyright of works of authors from other signatory countries (known as members of the Berne Union) in the same way as it recognizes the copyright of its own nationals. For example, French copyright law applies to anything published or performed in France, regardless of where it was originally created....

Now that I think about it, I don't even have proof that it's directly related to her tits animating, it might just be a body mesh thing.

@IanPugsley Well, I'm not entirely sure, according to the internet, applying Leixia's style to a male causes "odd nipple stretching".

Ian Pugsley

Given how floppy Leixia is, considering her bust size, I 'm guessing it's at least partly related to her tits.

Because there's no way that could work without some whack body stretching.
