Q: Do abandoned mineshafts have a higher swan rate for ores?

Stephen LeppikToday I mined out an abandoned mineshaft for iron ore to power my beacon. Strangely, in a timespan where I might find 1-2 stacks of iron ore through mining in normal caves, I found almost 4. I heard a rumor a while back (no idea where it came from) that more ores will spawn near these structures...

Q: Minecraft server ops.json

Flame CandyIf I change an op's "level" in the ops.json file, will it save their level individually or will it default back to the server.properties "op-permission-level"? Just wanting to make sure before I test it and find out someone I thought I gave a level of 2 instead defaulted back to level 4.

 
1:34 AM
@Nzall Rambeau? the woman shown in her flashbacks who at some point had a daughter?
either that or it's Valkyrie which i did see fan art of Thor introducing Carol to her and Valkyrie puts on the charm (though i suspect it's a altered version from a fan art scene from She-Ra where Catra is in Valkyrie's position)

Q: Does disorientating the hostage do anything?

RobbieI noticed as Echo if you use your Yokai to disorientate the hostage you get -5 points. Does anything actually bad happen to the hostage when you do that or does the game subtract 5 points for nothing?

Q: Hamachi MC Server not letting me join all of a sudden

danielwiluI and my friend have been playing on his hamachi server for a bit now. I've been busy for the past 2 days so I couldn't play. Today I tried to hop on to play, but I found an error "io.netty.channel.AbstractChannel$AnnotatedConnectException: Connection refused: no further information". We've encou...

Q: Overwatch Workshop: set payload starting position?

Nathan HincheyIs there any way to affect the payload's position with workshop rules? I've found a lot of tutorials, and none of them affect the behavior of the payload. (Although there is a cute what that makes heroes magnetically drawn to the payload). I've found how to get the position of the payload, but ...

Q: Does the Bulwark of Harmony tradition work in total war, or against crisis-factions like the Contingency?

ELLIOTTCABLEThat +33% build-speed bonus is pretty sweet; but what about when the Crisis rolls around? Does the Crisis existing count as a "defensive war", or does that bonus stop being helpful once you're past warring with other local-galactic empires? Similarly, what about "total war" factions that are at ...

Hmm... always fun when people send in meeting requests for the next workday, at the time I typically just arrive at work... and they do it after I've already left for home

Q: When Kayn terrain-walk to gank enemy champions, how does his shadow-orb-signal work?

Revol NoomDo you see that? Whenever there's an enemy champion near the terrain Kayn's in, this orb will show up. But it's not clear where it will. Do you know how it works?

> During a routine traffic control at night, Antwerp police stopped a driver who overtook the clearly marked police van while loudly using his horn. After the stop, the driver claimed he was honking his horn because "the van wasn't going fast enough"
 
@GnomeSlice Honestly, I think it would be pretty hilarious if they just do the exact same James Bond with Lashana Lynch without changing anything. Goes by "James Bond", flirts outrageously with women, etc.
> Lynch: "Bond, James Bond."
> Person: "But you're a..."
> Lynch: "It's Bond, James Bond."
 
12:50 PM
I'm glad it will be canon that James Bond is just the codename for 007, especially since it's well established that M and Q are just the codenames for those people.

Q: How do I get to the area near the end of the fridge?

Glen CosstickTrying to get the achievements for discovering all locations and there is one part near the end of the area I can't find anyway of getting to

 
@Lazers2.0 Isn't that Borderlands 2?
Ha, a coworker who is out of the office today broke the build on Friday.
 
@Yuuki deep down i want the last bit but a part of me feels she'll flirt with the men. so instead of a Bond Girl we'll get a Bond Boy
 
Okay, so the unbearably long loading time for Dragon Quest Builders 2 seems not that bad with hindsight.
It appears to load the entire map and you don't spend much time switching between maps anyways.
I haven't hit a loading screen in the past two or three hours of playtime.
 
1:05 PM
@Yuuki That's the best reason for long load times
 
It's a super long load time though.
Like "go read a book" long.
 
@Yuuki Just so we're clear: are you on an SSD or on a hard drive?
oh wait, isn't DQB a console game?
 
I'm playing on my Switch.
I really need to get a toolset and fix the stick drift on my Joycons.
Or apparently just get some electrical contact cleaner.
 
ah, okay, Switch. That does suck
 
1:21 PM
Okay, I basically closed all my issues for the week, that means I get to go home now right?
 
@Kevin No, that means you go to your boss and ask him for more tickets to do
That is so damn accurate
Also, check out the alt text
 
@Nzall Someone did warn them. Unfortunately, they weren't the sharpest tools in the shed.
 
user15026
@Yuuki honestly, I don't know if I'd find it hilarious, necessarily, instead I would just find it awesome that a woman gets to play that role. I am worried they're going to like neuter the role to make it "appropriate" for a woman because oh a woman couldn't do what Bond does or whatever
 
user15026
@Memor-X part of me worries that if she does flirt with women it will be the creepy male gaze style unrealistic lesbian ideal that is just to titillate a male audience. :/
 
@Ash did not think of that
in that case i would rather she flirt with the guys
 
1:28 PM
@Ash I mean, she needs to flirt with men so there's still male eye candy. We can't go from shirtless Daniel Craig to nothing. That shit just ain't fair.
 
Augh, the bandages are making my forearms so itchy.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn let me play the world's tiniest violin for you
 
user15026
@Yuuki that sounds highly unpleasant.
 
So update on the staph: seems much improved, my arms look less like first-degree burns and more like way too much time in the sun.
 
@Ash not a fan of shirtless Daniel Craig? :o
 
1:35 PM
@Kevin yeah I'm offended
 
If I remember my stuff correctly, shirtless Daniel Craig is still a example of "male gaze".
 
I don't remember it anyway
I'm not sure if I watched that bond movie or not
 
Cute!
You play as 'Birb'
> Join Birb in his heart-warming journey of discovery, as he sets off to find his true origins. Follow this cheerful little bouncing bird who revels in singing, and guide him through this magical journey of stunning pixel art and gorgeous animation that shapes itself to your musical interactions! Chirp to activate platforms, and sing to the residents of the forest, learning new notes to aid you in captivating rhythm battles against the creatures of this sprawling, enchanting world.
 
... I need to link that to someone who's nickname is birb
 
Yep. I'll probably be playing this
Music platformer? Yes pls
I bought Crypt of the Necrodancer in the steam sale
Haven't played it yet

Woo, expense claim is about to come through.

Q: What is this old programmable robot battling game?

Peter BridgerWay back when I used to have a 286 with an EGA monitor I had a game that allowed for programmable robots to battle each other. I believe the idea was to teach the basics of programming, by allowing the player to provide a basic script for a robot based upon sensor readings and variables in order...

 
@Lazers2.0 wait, i think i selected game rec instead of id request for off-topic

@Ave Now I don't feel as bad for wanting to use capitals for Subtle Emphasis.
@MBraedley Yeah I feel like it's been a while since we've seen a notebook-style Tom Scott video.
 
4:47 PM
Okay, I think I'm going to drop about $500 to upgrade my computer
New mobo, cpu, psu, and hard drive

Q: How do Electrical Anomalies behave in Metro Exodus?

Q: How do I learn recipes?

AshI have unlocked the Tavern in Littlewood, and I discovered one recipe just by trial and error, but honestly, that's going to take forever if that's the only way for me to learn to cook. Are there other ways to learn to cook other than me just randomly trying combinations? Failing that, is there ...

Q: What do I do with Deluca coins?

AshI keep getting Deluca coins for leveling in various things - are these good for anything in particular, or can I just sell them for Dewdrops? I haven't yet figured out what they might be good for, and if I should keep them for something or not.

Q: How do environmental hazards work in Metro Exodus?

7:40 PM
Okay, finally decided what to buy
Ended up being from Newegg instead of Amazon lol
I'm upgrading to a B450 Tomahawk motherboard, AMD Ryzen 5 3600, Crucial P1 500gb SSD, and 2x8gb DDR4 3200 RAM
Got all that for $414, and then I'm getting a new PSU from Amazon. 750W 80+ Gold rated, from Cooler Master, for about $40 after a couple bonus credits I snagged
 
@SaintWacko I feel like the sweet spot for SSD in terms of $ per GB is 1TB now
With that size you can actually load most programs and even games in addition to the OS
 
@Frank Yeah. Have you played it?
Pretty happy with it so far
Playing on hard and getting to the point where it's a real challenge
I like how the aliens adapt and mutate as you clear hives so you have to keep adapting your defenses
 
@GnomeSlice Can't say I've even heard of it.
 
the aliens develop new abilities and mutations during the missions
 
7:52 PM
Sounds like I'd rather play as the aliens
 
some later game gameplay
Game is dope. I grabbed it for like $3 in summer sale
I think you would like it, Frank
 
@PrivatePansy I agree. considering the average game right now is around 50-60 GB, and a number of games are breaching the 100 GB barrier, a 500 GB SSD is on the small side

A: How do you use Reinforcements?

PotatoEngineerAll of the benefits of the Reinforcements building are passive: you can't activate any of them via commands. Going through those benefits in order: Normally, when your marines die, they respawn from a base after a while. (I think it's the base closest to where they died.) You can see their heal...

At what now?
 
It's the technical term for "using all 3 combat styles and also your opponent is using all 3 combat styles giving you vastly too many things to keep track of and switch"
I'm so bad at this. I will probably try to stream it after the prime day strike ends
