@kalina Welcome to always online DRM!
 
I played Diablo 3, I don't need welcoming!
 
@kalina I heard you couldn't spawn natural disasters in the newest one?
 
@Ullallulloo I disagree
I unleash a huge tornado on my city every time just before my hour is up
and there are buttons for earthquakes and stuff, but not available in beta
 
okay
 
Oh Spike, you character.
 
6:20 PM
@Wipqozn you need to deal with it.

@agent86 I enjoyed that.
 
user15026
@agent86 that was rather awesome.
 
Really? We're giving two rep for changing "HP" to "Health"?
 
@OrigamiRobot whatever. It's 2 rep, and it's not like the edit is wrong. I wouldn't have approved it either, but I don't really feel angry that someone else did.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz But I want something to be angry about.
 
Oak
6:25 PM
@OrigamiRobot should not have been approved, imo
 
The trees have spoken.
 
@OrigamiRobot Shut up Lorax.

@LessPop_MoreFizz But I want something to be angry about.
 
play SimCity
...oh
;)
 
6:27 PM
I just woke up and I'm grumpy. Let me have this.
@kalina I hate Sim City.
 
grumpybot
 
user15026
@kalina tease. ;)
 
@kalina You are far grumpier than me on a regular basis.
 
@OrigamiRobot :x sorry
 
6:29 PM
If the redesign doesn't make you angry enough you can go back to the moment it was announced when I and Gnome discussed it in chat
That is enough to light my fire
 
@badp That's one of the last things I'd like to do.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'll remind you about it in your deathbed then
 
@Ullallulloo Don't take it personally, I just like complaining.
 
so that it can be one of the last things you do
 
@badp Robots don't die.
 
6:30 PM
Data - accepted.
 
THAT IS MY JOKE
MOD ABUSE
 
@OrigamiRob Your gravatar makes it look like you are really angry at the words you write, and are about to club them into submission.
 
@OrigamiRobot I put a dash in it! It gives it the required droidness while punctuating the irony of the statement. It's like, 200% better than your joke.
 
@badp Yea right. There is no reason for a dash.
 
says a robot
 
6:33 PM
@RavenDreamer The image is not the way you think it is.
 
Oh, I am well aware

Q: The Cave: How do I get off the island?

Django ReinhardtI have The Twins, The Adventurer, and The Monk. I have gotten the boat to the other side of the island, but The Hermit has gotten himself a place on the boat. I've got the Parrot to Sparky, but I can't find the Femur to make him bark (it's not where the Explosive Barrels were). Did I miss someth...

 
Guitars are kinda like clubs still.
 
@badp I meant the small image makes it look like I am leaping towards the words. This is not the case.
 
@OrigamiRobot Why'd you bash your own words with a guitar anyway?
 
6:36 PM
@badp Clearly you have not seen FLCL. All kinds of things get bashed with guitars for no reason.
 
TIL FLCL IATTE.
It seems no one ever felt the urge to make IATTE, so I shall coin IATTE recursively like all the cool things do as "IATTE: A Thing That Exists"
 
@OrigamiRobot Country block
So I guess it's a thing that doesn't exist in Italy
goes look for different video
 
I love it when I get paid early
 
@OrigamiRobot ...damn it @OrigamiRobot I'm going to need to watch the entire series gain.
Luckily it's only 6 episodes
 
user15026
6:52 PM
@origamirobot I keep trying to watch that and my internet is not cooperating.
 
@AshleyNunn Tell it to get in check.
 
@kalina Stupid DRM strikes again!
 
Has there been a squall of EA and Sim City Hate already, this morning?
 
@RavenDreamer Nah, just a little vitriol from me last night.
 
@kalina I love it when I get paid back pay
 
I got a bonus last time I got paid. That was nice.
 
user15026
@origamirobot this show is weird
 
It was retroactive pay raise pay for me. The company took a few weeks to decide how much extra they could put towards compensation
 
@AshleyNunn Yep
 
7:02 PM
Kitten delivery!
 
user15026
@raven yay kitten! So much cute. :)

Q: I am about to die in lava. How might i save my inventory?

Ranaynai'm playing the Minecraft Feed the Beast modpack. During a lengthy mining session, i made a dumb mistake and fell into lava. (not for the first time) I rage-quitted the game before i died, and now i would like to know if there is any way of rescuing my inventory. I know about the /gamerule comma...

Q: What items are worth picking up?

JonasHaving grown up in a currency economy, I am not so familiar with evaluating barter economies. I notice that when I pick up only blue items to avoid running out of town portal scrolls, I tend to run out of scrolls of wisdom quickly if I try to identify all my items. I have two questions: Is th...

Q: Testing joystick on XP - Why is movement registered when centered?

Goto10I have a USB 2 Thrustmaster joystick connected to a PC running Windows XP SP 3. I have been testing the joystick using Control Panel->Game Controllers->Properties. However, I find that sometimes (not always), the testing cross-hair moves slightly (judders by a few pixels) when the joystick is i...

A: Auto-mounting an encrypted USB hard drive

Otaku ChanAn suggestion? An Related Question From the Ubuntu help forums. Have you tried looking at this post yet it really helped me. What if not? Then i am sorry that i failed in my quest to help you.

ahahahahahaha
you need to click it to get the full effect of the use of HEADER TEXT and a link to Superuser
 
Hahahah
 
> Then i am sorry that i failed in my quest to help you.
 
@TrentHawkins Parking pad clear!
Sidenote: -19 feels positively balmy after a solid week of sub -30 weather.
 
oh dear
Ikaruga for Android is a thing
How do you even do that kind of game on a phone?
or, well, touch screen
 
7:22 PM
@badp Just because you can make it doesn't mean it's playable.
but yeah, smartphone shmups have been a thing for a while and most of them are awful.
 
I mean, if Beat Hazard's virtual joystick thing couldn't be dragged around I wouldn't have bought it
 
@OrigamiRobot Oi! None of that, now!
 
Huh. I can't log into Path of Exile
 
@fbueckert always online strikes... zzzzz

A: Let's stop displaying a user's accept rate

Kevin MontroseStarting with the next build accept rate will no longer be shown. We're still keeping track of it on the backend for various things, but the negative behavior its display encourages outweighs its benefits.

7:25 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Holy shit that is amazing
@fbueckert Aww, me either :(
 
@SaintWacko Then i am sorry that i failed in my quest to help you.
 
kitten is trying for the first time to climb on shoulders
oh god
 
@SaintWacko Oh, now it works.
 
GET OUT OF MY FACE
 
@fbueckert Ah, yep!
 
7:26 PM
@badp I don't like this change
 
@badp I volunteered at a SPCA shelter one summer, and one day while I was picking something up in the kitten room, one of the kittens climbed up my back onto my shoulders
It snuggled into the hood of the hoodie I was wearing, and I walked around the rest of the day with a kitten in my hood :)
 
@badp But ___he___ loves you.
 
@kalina I know; just in time for you to finish minmaxing it
@OrigamiRobot *she
@SaintWacko dawwww
 
> EVERYONE HELP OUR Q@A SITE LIVE MASS SHARE THIS DO IT FOR US!!!!!!!!! ASK YOUR SELF BLIND!!!
Why did I go to his link in his profile. What am I doing this to myself for?
 
This is so much more efficient than *turtle *tortoise
 
7:28 PM
brb, pouring lye over my eyebals to cleanse them.
 
aaaaaand the two minute window should be closing right about... now
 
I am out of edit time :(
 
@SaintWacko @OrigamiRobot go kill the cult leader already!
 
@badp urmom's a two minute window.
 
@badp unfortunately their reasoning for doing it is the opposite of what it made me do
since I used to go and research answers for stuff that got crap answers
now there's no point, might as well just leave the crap answer on there
 
7:30 PM
@RavenDreamer No more cult leader
 
@kalina You're a white fly. Most people would just accept whatever crap is posted on their question
 
@Lazers That's a dupe, btw.
 
@badp I have never heard that term before
 
because suddenly people are all over you face because you have 0% accept rate and what the hell why won't you just answer my question
 
@SaintWacko gut shot gut shot

Q: What is chaos damage in Path of Exile?

RichardWhat exactly is chaos damage in Path of Exile? Does it bypass all resistances? Is it poison damage?

Q: How long does it take for a character to get transfered to town after you disconnect while in an instance?

ChrisHateZWhen you disconnect in an instance your character gets transfered to town. How long does it takes for that to happen?

 
@Wipqozn It's always time to watch all of FLCL again
 
Haha, sweet
I'm on my laptop, so I don't have a middle click
 
Has java given up on actually updating? The last couple update notices I got say "failed to download installation ifles"
 
7:42 PM
So I set up a quick AHK script to replace ctrl + click with middle click
 
Most touchpads have an option to make right + left click into middle click
my laptop actually has a middle click button though, which I love
 
8:09 PM
Man, Clarity is strong, but damn, does it take mana.

Q: What damage does the Spycicle do?

user41419I was playing TF2 and I turned on a setting so I can see exactly what damage I am doing. I noticed after back stabbing a few enemies the number ranges from 100 to 1000. So why does the game say I am doing like 900 damage per kill... is this because it is an instant kil or what?

 
@fbueckert What does that one do again?
 
@SaintWacko +Mana regen
 
@fbueckert Oh, yeah
Nice
 
@SaintWacko That, coupled with inherent mana regen, and I can cast spells all day.
 
8:12 PM
I like that they use the mechanic of auras tying up max mana while in use
 
@Wipqozn Wow, we're just critting left and right.
 
@fbueckert Yeah, we're pretty awesome. These rats didn't stand a chance.
 
@fbueckert Geez, did you see all that spam?
 
@SaintWacko General chat?
 
@fbueckert Yeah
That was ridiculous
 
8:15 PM
@SaintWacko I have General chat turned off by default.
 
When the server came back up, massive amounts of spam
@fbueckert It's generally a nice place
 
@SaintWacko It's General chat. 'Nuff said.
 
@fbueckert Not the same here, though
Always a couple mods hanging out in it
 
What's the GCP they're always talking about?
 
user15026
8:18 PM
@OrigamiRobot I want to call shenanigans on it but I don't know how.
 
@Wipqozn Democracy, ho!
 
@OrigamiRobot not convinced that is real
 
@kalina I'm not convinced you'd be convinced of anything
 
@OrigamiRobot not convinced you're a robot
 
user15026
@kalina Me either.
 
8:23 PM
I kinda doubt it's fake
 
And PoE went down for maintenance.
 
user15026
 
@fbueckert Bah
Wonder how long it'll take
 
user15026
This better as hell hit the NA eshop
 
user15026
ITS CALLED MEW MEW TRAIN AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE MOST AWESOME.
 
8:28 PM
@fbueckert SimCity is still up
 
user15026
@kalina Hush, you
 
@AshleyNunn I love how you're apparently playing as the slowest cat who can't even run behind spikes.
 
user15026
@badp The derpy cats need love too!
 
@AshleyNunn not sure why it won't, does'nt look like there will be much text to translate
 
user15026
@BenBrocka That gives me hope, because OMG cute kitties
 
8:33 PM
@AshleyNunn Kitties :D
 
@kalina EA is stupid, and I won't support them when they make stupid decisions.
 
And apparently Peakvox does release english games: peakvox.com/en
 
@fbueckert no u
I've told you, your argument against always on DRM is flawed in that you play Diablo 3
 
If they release thati t might be my first 3DS digital purchase. Nothing else looks all the tempting yet
 
@kalina Blizzard != EA.
 
8:35 PM
@fbueckert Blizzard = Activision, in case you forgot they're worse than EA
 
Yeah, while Blizzard made a stupid mistake with D3, they're not as bad as EA
 
@kalina OK, you got me there.
 
At least, not usually
@fbueckert Apparently PoE is being DDOSed
 
I cannot justify skipping SimCity because of EA being douchebags when I accepted the same thing from Blizzard and Activision
 
@SaintWacko Why does that not surprise me?
 
8:36 PM
@SaintWacko this is sad
 
user15026
@BenBrocka I bought way too many impulse things on there. :( Like Roller Angels. That was the stupidest crappiest game ever ever ever ever ever
 
@fbueckert What the hell is wrong with people?
 
@SaintWacko DDOSing is fun! Let's disrupt people's livelihood for shits and giggles!
 
@AshleyNunn 3DS' downloadable games just dont' seem as up to par as the PSN's. And I don't really want to download the full games digitally since nintendo's...everything online sucks
 
Or at least their website is. Presumable the servers are too
 
8:38 PM
@fbueckert did you see the herp derp about pettitioning to make DDoS a recognized form of protest in the US?
 
user15026
@BenBrocka Yeah, see, it's my only gaming unit with online capability for purchasing, until the ex-roommate is done with the Wii, so it is easy to make impulse purchases
 
@fbueckert I wish @GraceNote would hurry up with that stabbing-people-through-the-internet device
@BenBrocka Yeah, that was ridiculous
 
@AshleyNunn ah, I have many others, so it's easier to resist :P
 
user15026
@BenBrocka Also, I wouldn't want to download a retail release - that would fill most of my SD card
 
Protests cannot prevent customers from reaching an establishment
That's precisely the point of DDOSing a site
Which right there blows the whole argument out of the water
@fbueckert It's back up!
 
8:39 PM
Tempted by some of the 3D classics but A: Not very sold on the actual 3D part and B: if I did buy them I'd probably play them on an emulator instead
@SaintWacko exactly
 
user15026
@BenBrocka Yeah, I bought a couple, then was like....self, you rarely play with the 3D on. What are you doing.
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, I did. At the time, I figured it was alright, but legalizing it would just make everyone DDOS something all the time.
 
And if idiot hacktivists actually wanted to hit X company they'd be doing things like stealing the company's info and disrupting them internally not stealing from and harming customers
DDoS is just being a lazy douchebag and harming users more than the company
 
user15026
Man, I like my Vanguard in Conclave so much more than my Runecaster. The Vanguard can actually kill shit.
 
@AshleyNunn A tabletop style RPG where mages aren't crazy overpowered? How ridiculous
 
user15026
8:43 PM
@BenBrocka Shush, you. I just like killing. It is fun.

Q: Are there any real differences between factions in Ingress?

ZanoThe backstory makes it out to be a more or less life-defining decision which faction, Enlightened or Resistance, you select. As far as I can see though, there doesn't seem to be any real difference, except for color, between the teams. Is there any difference at all, and if not, do we have any k...

 
It was more of an insult to DnD and related systems that make a mage at any level about 50x more lethal than any non-magic using class
 
user15026
@BenBrocka This is the closest thing to DnD that I have ever really played.
 
user15026
I like when I make things die.
2
 
@AshleyNunn Things have gotten massively better for my Runescater once I had enough renown to grab the fire rune thing from the shop
I went from doing 2 damage to doing 5
We also got a beacon to inspire us, and that got me to 7
...sure, a beacon's starting attack is 7
My beacon does 10-11
could be 11-12 if I'd bought stranth
still.
 
user15026
8:46 PM
Yeah, see I don't have those things. XD It doesn't help that half the time I barely know what I am doing. (@fluttershy had to tell me to move back from a fight because I didnt even notice I was pretty much dead)
 
@AshleyNunn How many quests have you completed?
You just need 2 for that fire rune thing.
 
I'm really going to need to peruse the store once we finish this quest.
 
@fbueckert You can do that right now if I'm not mistaken
Just hold on your vote
 
@badp Too late; voted already.
 
@fbueckert oh wait no, we haven't finished the quest yet
You'll be able to once we do.
There'll be a glowing blue icon. Click on it to level up.
There'll also be a tower icon. You can upgrade your stuff there
 
8:51 PM
Just gotta get @RedRiderX to vote, and keep it going.
 
from my other session, where we just started a new quest
Got myself some poultice. Beacons love poultice.
@fbueckert keep it going then. @Wipqozn
 
Only a single enemy? This should be fast.
 
@fbueckert This is kind of a "boss fight"
 
@badp Ah. So I will attempt to smash it.
