Anyway, the point is that I currently have $5000 in pending donations to be taken out of paychecks this year, and another $5,000 in additional donations that could potentially be matched
@murgatroid99 urgh, red cross
i mean awesome on google to do that
but still urgh
00:40
What do you have against the Red Cross?
00:58
@GodEmperorDune what's wrong with Red Cross
i seem to have missed something. did porkchat break?
Paging doctor @fredley
> the Red Cross is a dysfunctional organization that excels at raising money but has shown little evidence of its ability to spend that money wisely or meaningfully. The Red Cross takes in close to 3 billion annually, refuses to open its books to the public, and, according to Katz, has consistently failed to produce a useful breakdown of its spending after major disaster efforts.
@Fluttershy OK, that's good to know
But yeah, basically, it really seems like the bulk of money donated to Red Cross goes toward paying their chairmens' salaries.
Yeah CEO made like 600k which :|
01:53
@Unionhawk Which according to those numbers seems to be less than 1% of what they bring in.
If they aren't transparent with where the money is going that is an issue, but the CEO of a multi-billion dollar org making a lot of money isn't that scandalous.

Q: How to name an item in a pre-filled chest

Smart_SnakeI want have the item in the chest (the dye) to have a custom name, I have tried very hard to do so, but if you can help please do so. Here is what I have so far: /give @p chest 1 0 {BlockEntityTag:{Items:[{Slot:0,id:dye,Damage:2,Count:1}]}}

@Fluttershy That, and they end up selling most of the donated blood
Oh fuck you Roiland and Harmon you can't do that to me
NO
@murgatroid99 the tl;dr is they suck up a lot of donations that could be going to better run organizations by being big and well known and easily recognizable
basically they are a blood reseller that happens to run massive fundraisers during disasters
also they are dickish about their patent/trademark red cross symbol
@Unionhawk what the stinger for the finale
No just how 309 ended and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa no

Yep :)
02:30
shame SciFi has made zero mention of it. maybe have to wait until next year before they get the rights to air it
@Yuuki Did you pick up Yonder before it went on sale?
@Fluttershy ... Did it go on sale today?
@Yuuki Yeah... 33% off.

Time to contact Steam support.
@Yuuki Good luck!
02:41
I mean, if they push back, I'll just refund it and buy it again.

i want it to be real so much
don't tell me it's not real. why do you hate money?
user15026
I have no idea of it is real or purchasable
huh, how strange. a site that i go to to get data now runs console.clear or something like that in an endless loop preventing me from getting the results of javascript i run in the dev console
i know it's not an attempt to top be running javascript in the dev console because you can turn off javascript for the site and still run it in in the console
so the only other reason i can think of it that they are trying to hide javascript errors.....but do they really think people are that stupid not to notice Console was cleared and a reference to their script?

@fredley destroy the abomination you've created. It's too dangerous to be released.

@Avery with that XKCD replacer thing can the replacements be hyperlinks
I'm not sure
blink
alright then
user15026
@GodEmperorDune okay, this distracted me from my emotional state and made me laugh instead so I call that a win
@Ash is everything ok?
user15026
@Avery okay enough. Just one of those stupid nights where your brain decides revelations about yourself that kinda shake you up some should come at midnight, when you are too tired to do anything except feel out of sync with all the things. I distracted my brain with Pokemon and soon I will sleep and tomorrow will be a different day.

Bridge how terrible is it to get pizzas for breakfast
@Avery when pizza's on a bagel, you can have pizza anytime
apparently the decent pizza place near my place opens at 11am :/
it's 9:30
seriously though pizza is delicious
I'll place an order anyways
@GodEmperorDune IT IS VERY DELICIOUS
07:12
Morning chat
Hang on, so @fredley had time to implement the Konami Code in PC, but he didn't fix hovering not working in Chrome?
> i.responseText.indexOf("Rebecca Black")
the variable i directly contains the HTML of the page, so the responseText property of that doesn't work
07:29
@Nzall That would be odd, because responseText is (probably) a property on a XHR response
oh hang on, that wasn't from Porkchat... That was from the "it's never friday" userscript
Porkchat has a different issue: a missing double quote in the emoji constant list.
I got porkchat 1.0.16 btw
07:51
me: this change is pretty small, should be fine to deploy to production narrator: but the change was not fine to deploy to production

What's the over under on this person being a coworker
it feels weird seeing room info and users again
I feel that anytime I log in from a new pc or for some reason css doesn't render.
08:07
CSS rendering is overrated
Also morning chat
chat is much better with custom css
also agh the pizza place opens in 5 minutes and then it'll take like 20 mins for pizza to get ready and then 10 to arrive ugh
wh
you
pizza
8am
no
11am for her I think
yes
oh right that's britain
08:14
WHEEEE. I'm hurting the testing server.
@Arperum TMI, this isn't the bridge after dark
@badp If you have to be awake, I see no reason why not.
@Arperum COMMON DECENCY DICTATES NEITHER SHOULD BE THE CASE
BUT TWO WRONGS MAKE A TRUMP
@badp WHAT IF I AM STILL AWAKE?
well clearly if I was still awake I'd have been working for 5 hours or so already
08:18
@badp I mean I ordered at 9am (but yes I ordered before the store opened so that they're prep it asap)
the stuff I can buy around here are limited, mostly pizza, lahmacun and pide
@Arperum then you shouldn't be working on anything that is going to touch production
and i'm too lazy to go and buy ingredients to make decent food so I just ordered a pizza
@KevinvanderVelden Wise words, but I feel the two tend to go hand in hand
Lahmacun sounds delicious
it's quite good, yes
08:32
Aaaand now I'm hungry...
@KevinvanderVelden (I did sleep a reasonable amount last night, like slightly over 5 hours)
That is almost but not quite anywhere near reasonable =p
speaking of which my watch went to low battery mode before alarm today and my one hour nap turned into a 7 hour sleep :/
@KevinvanderVelden It is totally reasonable. Sure, 6 would be slightly better, but eh, I'd probably wake up early or something stupid.
08:39
Breakfast this morning is going to be smoothies and we have no idea what lunch or dinner are going to be
08:49
yay pizza is here
09:20
@Avery What's on your breakfast pizza?
@Ronan cheese
That's a pretty boring pizza
Yay, adding a shitton of data was a terrible idea. Now I have to fix the issue of browser crashing on being served said data.
@KevinvanderVelden it's good enough
I don't want to gain too much weight

Q: What is the name of game?

Amir Hossein RezaeiA few years ago I played a nice car game that it was something like GTA games.unfortunatly I forget the name of it and all I remember about that is this: It had a nice fantasy graphics(like saint row) and at the beginning of the game , the main character meet a spanish girl in red dress and after...

Always fun when it turns out that a change made 5 years and 9 months ago introduced a bug that wasn't noticed until today
And a pretty serious bug, as in "the page doesn't work properly when triggered" serious
11:41
@Nzall Can't be that often if it took almost six years to occur.
@Frank yeah, it was an error in a single field for a page that's rarely used.
But still, we never noticed it until today, because we are refactoring that page
And during testing, it turned out that this particular field has been bugged every since we swapped to Hibernate
Essentially, we tried to execute a Hibernate search using criteria meant for a JDBC query, and that broke it
@Nzall Integration testing is important.
@Frank the dumb thing is that this would have been found through unit testing, because for some reason we don't test all our search criteria
@Nzall Perfect opportunity to add a unit test for this.
That was one particular search criteria that we didn't test, and I added a check for it now
Like, at the very least you should be checking all the happy paths on your unit tests, but for some reason not all of them are tested

Sounds like I was fortunate to take the day off yesterday. Large fire at a tire storage really close to my office, as in "visible flames, keep windows and doors closed" close
Now (softly) playing in the office: Badger badger badger badger (10 hours)
@KevinvanderVelden Caused by you to drive coworkers crazy? or some coworker that is trolling the hell out of you?
Caused by me, I started with nyan
Basically a coworker was waiting on a laptop to sync for someone new so I put it to good use
and for anyone else who wants to do the same thing
13:14
why does no have a question mark
(elementary, s01e05, 42:45)
@Avery no, why would i want to Delete all? who is all? why do i want to delete them?
I am confused by the sorting on this grid what
It's going 88 89...100 1 2 3...87
But for why though
@Unionhawk The same reason that maps of the world are split in the pacific ocean instead of the atlantic ocean.
Someone really likes one part of the range and wanted that part to be the main part.
Hey, where did my porkchat go?
13:29
Apparently it was broken for @BlueBarren last night
@fredley
sorry not @BlueBarren, @Dragonrage
same thing
It's not loading at all for me right now
Not even a Chrome restart brought it back...
Quick someone post an emoji.
I still have the theme but none of the other PorkChat features seem to be working actually.
I don't even have the theme
😾
Yep, broken.
Or the Porkchat button in the corner

this is why I reinvent the wheel
As you can see, the "black_joker" is missing an opening semicolon
13:40
@Nzall will you send a pr or should I do it
@Avery you do it, I don't have a clue how to
An opening semicolon?
double quote
sorry, opening double quote
I'm not even sure what an opening semicolon would be
Oh, gotcha lol
gg @fredley
13:41
oh jeez that emoji dictionary is horrifying

Also, well done @Nzall, I hadn't even thought to open the console
Currently listening to
which is actually surprisingly relaxed
couldn't fredley have just like used some sort of library to look Unicode chars up by description
@quartata I feel like that must exist somewhere
Just some banjo tunes with a bit of a bass under
@Nzall Is this from the PorkChat codebase? Why is that even a thing?
@StrixVaria because uh
@StrixVaria Because @fredley
13:43
@SaintWacko yeah most things probably won't index by description/name/whatever but it would be doable
oh yep there you go
@fredley added slack emoji replacement
Althiugh i was envisioning something that would give any Unicode code point if you just typed it what it was called, like "man in business suit levitating" or whatever the cool kids use
Oh does PorkChat do replacement like :bread: will actually render as bread (once this is fixed)?
yes
13:45
but does it make toast
I should add a similar feature to the reinvented wheel but make it work on the textbox
it also does :friday: to youtube.com/kfv for reasons
@quartata sudo make me avocado toast
ooh thanks for reminding me I have some avocados that are probably going to overripen
@quartata Sounds fun in theory. Sounds less fun when you realize you need to provide a LONG list of similar aspects (levitating man in business suit; man levitating in business suit; man in levitating business suit; business suit with levitating man;...) PLUS localization in every single language you want to support
13:49
Can I get a new sibling? Mine wants me to drive to uni to give her cash because she lost her debit card and can't get money without it. And also, she has yet to tell the bank to issue her a new one.
Apparently because we're telling to get a new one and it stresses her out and she ends up not doing it.
@Nzall I mean the specific names for them
@quartata unicode assigns like 3 names to each
Wait really?
@Yuuki That sounds like a personal problem
For her, I mean
@Yuuki My friend and I went on vacation once a 4-hour drive away from home. He borrowed his sister's car (with permission), but she forgot concert tickets in the glove compartment. She asked him to drive back "real quick" to drop them off.
13:51
Can she not just go to the bank and withdraw cash?
@quartata that's also an option: force your users to know what the official names for emojis are
Would be better than the current hardcoded lookup table hell considering all of Porkchat's users are nerds anyway
@SaintWacko If she can go to the bank to withdraw cash, she can just as well go to the bank and ask a new debit card
Hmmm
@Nzall this + she could theoretically get money EFTd to her name
I think, at least.
13:56
I'm not sure what I'm bothered more by in that picture: the obvious, the fact that there are so many or that they're all different shapes
@SaintWacko Need a card for that.
@Yuuki o.0 seriously?
@Yuuki I don't think you need a card at the teller, just at the ATM
How are you going to identify yourself to the teller, recite your account number?
using your government issued Id or another form of ID
13:57
That's not going to be an option, she hasn't memorized it.
Yeah, she doesn't have a driver's license.
And I'm not sure a college ID works.
Then how did she open her account?
It's a high school account that my parents opened for her in high school.
Okay, followup then. How is she going to prove to the bank that she is owner of the account that the card was lost for?
She can log in online and issue a card from there.
HANG ON! she can just ask a new card via the internet? she doesn't need to go to the bank? then why doesn't she do that?
I mean, would probably take 5 minutes tops
14:00
10 mins ago, by Yuuki
Apparently because we're telling to get a new one and it stresses her out and she ends up not doing it.
Sit down with her and help her through it in a gentle manner. That might get it done
Has she lost a card before? she may be concerned she does something wrong
Bit difficult to sit down with her when she's at uni.
And driving there and back would basically be my whole day in rush hour traffic.
Skype and teamviewer?
@Avery that's so fake because the end result was not Minecraft
14:07
yes
I need to word my sentences really carefully when talking to her because her default interpretation of any message is "aggressive as hell".
"Either calm down and stop behaving like a teenager or do it yourself"
user15026
@Yuuki wait, you guys telling her to do something good she needs to do that is relatively easy... Okay I get anxiety and avoidance but augh
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah, I'm sure I'll get a response along the lines of "that's aggressive by everyone's standards".
Good, now we have a working reference level and we can continue!
14:09
I mean even I replaced my card after losing it so eh and I was 15 at the time
@Ash I mean I have anxiety too and trying to talk to her when she's in one of her moods just makes me livid and I feel even sorrier for the people who have to deal with me. And then I feel bad for being angry.
Granted, I don't think my anxiety's as bad as anyone else I know, but still.

Q: Pokken Tournament DX Skill Points?

spyang302The skill points I assign to my various pokemons like attack/defense/synergy, do these actually affect online game play or are they just for single player only? It doesn't really make sense for this to affect online gameplay in a fighting game.... I looked online for answers but they only relate...

@Lazers2.0 Why not? They apply in competitive Pokemans.
@Yuuki It still doesn't make sense for them to apply.
Nintendo historically has no idea how to do online or competitive.
What sense does it not make?
In a 1v1 competitive game it makes no sense to give one player a stats advantage over the other based on playtime.
@Yuuki Because you don't want players who have had more time to accrue skill points to have a competitive advantage over a player who hasn't had the time
14:45
In Pokemans, there's a cap on the amount of EV a Pokemans can have.
Pokken Tournament is a fighting game, not core pokemans.
But they both have competitive scenes.
What Nintendo does and what makes sense to do are not necessarily the same thing.
It's a legitimate question to ask "Did Nintendo do the right thing this time or are they still being dumb about competitive?"
Eh, EVs allow for some weird builds that can trip up your opponent. "Oh, my sweeper has just enough Defense EVs so that it doesn't get OHKO'd by one particular super-effective move that's popular".
I don't see how having that as an option is "being dumb about competitive".
Then focus on the question in the context of Pokken because I'm more on the fence about EVs than I am about the Pokken question, which if stats affect that it's clearly stupid.
I think it's because the core pokemon gameplay is casual with tacked on competitive and only really hardcore players tend to take that seriously.
In Pokken the core gameplay is competitive.
Nintendo also screwed up competitive in Brawl with the legendarily bad tripping mechanic.
Pokemon is a stupid amount of grinding to get top-tier dudes, though.
Like tens to hundreds of hours of breeding per teammate, then careful EV training.
I certainly don't think that design is "fine" even for hardcore players.
If you could just pick EVs on a slider, sure.
As long as everyone gets the same number of EVs with no built-in grind.
I think I'm just rambling to no one at this point though so I should probably go do work or something instead.
14:51
I'm quibbling, but EVs is nowhere near the thorniest part of competitive Pokemon.
Breeding for egg moves is by far the worst thing.
Right, but that's still a dumb thing about competitive pokemon.
Are most competitive Pokemon leagues played on handheld?
Showing that Nintendo does dumb things because it doesn't understand competitive modes.
Because I thought a good number of leagues are played through emulation or simulation.
All official pokemon tournaments are handheld.
I know that Smogon has a really big simulation-based fighting community.
I'm not sure if that was updated for the newest gen, though.
14:53
IIRC, they use Pokemon Showdown which may or may not be third-party.
Well, since Smogon itself is third-party, I guess that makes it fourth-party?
Ninth party
N-dimensional party
I wonder what would be the definition of a second party developer

hmmm
@PrivatePansy Gamefreak.
They only develop for Nintendo and Pokemon is pretty much considered a first-party game.
Nintendo pays for Pokemon development and publishing but Gamefreak is still technically an independent studio, IIRC.
(Also, the Pokemon Company only handles licensing and marketing, whoops)
