Q: What is the giant coin slot before the boss area in the sand kingdom

Joshua FavoriteAfter deepest underground and before the big arena, there's an oversized coin slot in a big circle. You can jump into it; I can't find out what to do with it. Does anybody know what it's for?

 
1:05 AM
@Avery ok, after poking at koreader a bit, the file browser gets a lot more useful if you go gear, display mode, detailed list with cover images and metadata and tick "append series info to author"
To search by tag/author/etc independent of file structure, search -> find in calibre catalog will do the thing
And as mentioned earlier you can make the directory structure anything you want on the Calibre side of things by changing the settings.
 
1:30 AM
Aggravatingly, it looks like the Calibre Wireless protocol broke at some point on the koreader side, so you need to either pull books with the browser or OPDS or push them with USB -- no wireless push.
 
It's 2017, where is my VR emoji
 
@Unionhawk unrekt
 
@GodEmperorDune I fucking hate busy parking lots
 
@cazc_941 you are gling to have to wait till 2039
 
1:57 AM
Mistakes of a financial nature have been made
 
@TimStone that is never good
 
Yeaaaaah
But can you really put a price on happiness? I think not, I think not nods
 
You bought a hotas didn't you
 
I maybe did more than just that
 
You do know you can only deduct that if you're like
A streamer
 
2:00 AM
What if I use it to pilot drones to motivate my employees?
CHECKMATE IRS
 
@TimStone bought a million dollar car?
 
Then you're the worst kind of capitalist because let's be honest
 
No, my Amex credit limit, while obnoxious, is not that high
 
That's just the Joja Corp cameras everywhere in practice
 
It's not my fault they need supervision
I'm about to cross off a $650/month payment though so that should cushion my discretionary spending
 
2:02 AM
That's p good
 
It is Less Good if you knew what the payment was for but otherwise absolutely
My car will be paid off sometime next year too so that's nice
 
Argh. I have been eyeing HOTASes covetously but can't even justify a cheap one (well, "cheap", since even the cheapest ones are in the $150-$200 range), but I play so few flight-sim-y things these days that I can't really justify it.
I don't even have a joystick these days.
@TimStone what HOTAS did you get?
 
My jostick was like fifty bucks and works great for elite
Which I should play ever
 
@ToxicFrog The Thrustmaster Warthog because it's $150 off yet still Very Expensive on Newegg for Black Friday ._.;;
 
Ouch, you are not kidding
 
2:06 AM
Shhhh
@Unionhawk Yeah, mine's fine except for the fact I've already screwed up the twist axis |:
 
@Unionhawk I had a Logitech Extreme 3d Pro for years, cost about $50 and worked great until it completely stopped working
 
Which apparently is a common thing if you abuse them
@ToxicFrog Yep, that's what I (and I think @Unionhawk) have
 
@ToxicFrog yep that's the one
4 axis, works great, I should get it out of the box and clean my desk
 
...Crap. EXTRA MISTAKES HAVE BEEN MADE
 
I should have just gotten another one, but it died fast enough (and skidded around the desk enough) that I decided to try a different one and got the Saitek AV8R
Which cost about the same, but was awful
And since getting rid of that I haven't had a joystick.
 
2:08 AM
Damn you NewEgg, why would you charge my order in pieces? |:
 
Yeah it's not worth if you don't play like, elite
Or flight simulator
 
I play both and maybe also own a Vive now >_>;;
 
has anyone played Tales of Symphonia Chronicles on the PS3 and Tales of Legendia on the PS2?
 
@Unionhawk yeah, I don't play Elite, I finished Wing Commander 1/2 and Tachyon years ago, I play Descentlikes with keyboard/mouse and House of the Dying Sun isn't out yet last I checked
And no other space flight sims have really crossed my radar in recent years, so

Q: Grand Theft Auto V story mode

4:29 PM
@TimStone probably
 
It's impressive the number of people who cheat to get the top spots on the global leaderboards
 
@TimStone and they do it so obviously, too. It's like they don't care that the whole world knows they cheated just so long as they're #1
>best player in the world has a score of 99,999,999,999
seems legit
 
Yeah, I realised in HITMAN while playing a mission from the new campaign where you're given sniper targets, and like she takes her time telling you the clues
And someone finished in 8 seconds
 
@TimStone I suppose you could just randomly shoot someone until you get the right person.
 
You get penalized for non-target kills, and there's five targets (and many more non-targets), so I think they must at a minimum have something that highlights the targets
 
4:36 PM
@Frank Does shooting the wrong people not negatively affect your score?
 
Oh hey, coco is out now
 
I guess you could also just get super lucky
 
Oh, I figured it was just a single target.
So a player could just start level, shoot someone, and hope they were it.
And then restart as necessary until you get lucky.
 
Ah yeah, not in this case
 
Eight seconds seems pretty blatant cheating, then.
 
4:39 PM
Indeed. I don't much care about global leaderboards thankfully, beating @Wipqozn is reward enough
 
I should probably play the new levels. Also replay some of the older ones.
 
Even if #1 wasn't cheating a speedrunner would have it
 
@Wipqozn There's also an Elusive Target active now, fwiw

Is it common for Skyrim to crash repeatedly with all 3 DLCs installed?
 
How many other mods do you have?
 
No mods, just Dawnguard, Dragonborn, and Hearthfire. I can play for a little, then it will crash a few minutes into combat
 
That's not normal
It's only supposed to do that with lots of mods
Also, why don't you yet have lots of mods?
 
I am on Xbox 360.

@KevinvanderVelden (I had normal Skyrim, then I bought Legendary Edition, in which came with a new disc of Skyrim and the dlc disc)
Maybe I should try reinstalling them?
 
I have no idea, that shouldn't fix it but it also shouldn't be doing it in the first place

Q: Global color of trooper or starfighter class
