@GraceNote Zacchaeus was a wee little man

@badp luckely i prefer fantasy and sci fi games

@Blem The best part is when he turns the OPEN sign.

OrigamiRobot

@GraceNote Cicadae is the superior pluralization.

Grace Note

22:09

@OrigamiRobot Can't find myself to agree with that remotely.

OrigamiRobot

I feel bad for you.

Grace Note

A polling of several communities, not a single person said "cicadae" as the plural. Granted, only one person agreed with me anyway, but I still remain numerically superior. Haha.

OrigamiRobot

I am a robot. I am always numerically superior.

I only ever concede to you for fear of being shelled.

user43095

^ You're a pretty sucky robot

OrigamiRobot

How rude.

Unionhawk

PaperStare @jeffreylin_

OrigamiRobot

@jeffreylin_ ಠ_ಠ

user43095

@Unionhawk What does that mean?

user43095

@OrigamiRobot Look at your HPC.

Tempted to turn that into a TF2 spray

user43095

@Unionhawk What is this?

user43095

Unionhawk

@jeffreylin_ Not me.

user43095

What happens if I break it?

Unionhawk

@jeffreylin_ Everything explodes.

user43095

22:24

@Unionhawk I'm taking that risk.

Retrosaur

22:34

@Jeffery

@jeffreylin_ What's the server ip again?

user43095

22:46

@Retrosaur mine.stackgaming.com

user43095

@Unionhawk Found this:
#Set to true to make the vanilla enderchest unplaceable.
      disable-vanilla=true

Unionhawk

@jeffreylin_ Well, that settles it then.

user43095

@Unionhawk What does this do?

user43095

# Enable crafting of glowstone dust out of dusts
B:enableCraftingGlowstoneDust=true

user43095

@Retrosaur Are you going on?

Unionhawk

22:53

@jeffreylin_ Presumably, it makes vanilla ender chests unplaceable.

Retrosaur

Unionhawk

It's a server config, so changing your client config won't help you

Retrosaur

I'm getting another error

It requires some mod pack

AppliedEnergestics

Johann

hey guys new chat room

Unionhawk

@Retrosaur The server is running Feed The Beast, Direwolf20 pack version 5.2.1

Retrosaur

22:54

I went to the FTB websitet

downloaded the latest one

I'm not sure if I'm missing something

Unionhawk

@Retrosaur Are you launching the Direwolf20 pack?

Retrosaur

What's that?

Unionhawk

Or Ultimate?

Retrosaur

I'm on Ultimate

I have no clue what Direwolf20 is

user43095

@Retrosaur In the launcher, hit direwolf20, not Ultimate.

Unionhawk

22:55

@Retrosaur Quit that, choose the modpack that says "Direwolf20 pack"

Retrosaur

Oh, okay

Gotcha

There's no other modpacks

user43095

@Unionhawk There's a secret room mod?

user43095

SecretRoomsMod.cfg

Retrosaur

it's an empty list

user43095

@Retrosaur Pics or it didn't happen

Unionhawk

22:57

@Retrosaur Check your connection?

I have no idea

Yes that was a dumb comment. I realize that now.

Retrosaur

Johann

@Retrosaur ever get tired of minecraft mods?

user43095

@Retrosaur Hit filter settings, and apply

user43095

Should refresh the list

Retrosaur

Ah, there we go.

Danka comrade.

@Johann In all honesty, I used to hate minecraft mods, because of how much effort you needed to do to make sure mods worked

I haven't playedd MC in a while so

Johann

23:00

I just moved on to different games

Yawus

I just got lazy and had my friends put together modpacks for me whenever we wanted to play Minecraft.

Johann

or you could play minecraft

ripoffs

like blockcraft

and other poorly made stuff

so what are my chances of getting into the escape pod

Yawus

Hmm... I'm sure there's a quote that would apply here...

murgatroid99

@Johann I'm going to go with zero

Yawus

"Like a whelk's chance in a supernova." - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Johann

23:08

yay

Yawus

I know, I haven't gotten to quote Douglas Adams in a loooong time.

Johann

well i made my own chatroom

with flash games and no rules

Yawus

With blackjack and hookers?

Oh, well never mind then.

Johann

@Yawus no just flash game and no rules

Yawus

Oh come on, that's not even an obscure reference.

Johann

23:10

@Yawus sarcasm

Unionhawk

The goal is for the Escape Pod to fade away and for everything that has been going on over the past 3 days now to be resolved in some way

Johann

@Unionhawk you speak of a utopia

FEichinger

It used to be the case.

murgatroid99

@Unionhawk Hopefully, it will just be deleted when everything goes approximately back to normal

Unionhawk

We used to have such a utopia

Johann

23:15

and then the fire nation attacked

FEichinger

No, you managed that quite well on your own.

Powerlord

So... bacon.

Unionhawk

@Powerlord I concur.

Yawus

@Powerlord How much bacon?

Powerlord

@Yawus As much as it takes.

SaintWacko

23:18

@Yawus ALL THE BACON

@Yawus I wish I got to quote Douglas Adams more often :(

Retrosaur

DOn't all utopias end up being dystopias?

@Johann winrar

Unionhawk

@Retrosaur Only in fiction.

Retrosaur

Nobody's created a utopia so far

so isn't everything somewhat theoretical?

@johann Do you have a Steam account?

Johann

23:33

@Retrosaur but of course

Lazers

Q: What are Gourmet Vouchers?

After dining at the Canteen several times, I received a Gourmet Voucher. Having used several Vouchers before, I know that the normal Vouchers make all the food options "fresh" and therefore more likely to activate the Felyne skills. How does a Gourmet Voucher then differ from a normal Voucher? I ...

...

MBraedley

Arg, dealing with subcontractors suck.

Johann

hey guys what is the most delicious use for bacon

MBraedley

Especially when writing design docs that rely heavily on stuff they haven't built yet, even though their stuff is supposedly COTS

@Johann anything with bacon is delicious. There can be no superlative.

Johann

23:42

@MBraedley bacon wrapped shrimp?

MBraedley

@Johann I'm not a seafood guy

and I believe you mean scallops anyway.

Johann

@MBraedley you cant say no to some seafood

catfish

oysters rockefeller

fish and chips

MBraedley

@Johann I do enjoy salmon, and occasionally tuna in the right dish, but other than that, I don't eat seafood.

Johann

@MBraedley blackened salmon is great

MBraedley

sigh and now my work VPN is screwed up.

Blem

23:45

nn people

Johann

hey retro are you still on

MBraedley

@Blem c ya

Johann

hey has anyone seen retro I could use some pointless conversation

MBraedley

@Johann He's playing TF2 ATM

Johann

well everyone check out the new chatroom flash games

Powerlord

23:48

@Johann Why?

Unionhawk

@Powerlord Damn. No more stars still.

user15026

@powerlord good question.

FEichinger

@Unionhawk Just a couple of minutes.

badp

Guys... be nice

Yawus

@badp That's actually a fairly legitimate question when someone's asking you to play flash games.

badp

23:51

Making a chat room with flash games for topic is not asking people to play flash games

MBraedley

Do I put speculation in a document that's decidedly not supposed to have speculation in it?

Johann

@Powerlord because

flash games because they are free

well actually I meant free online games

but flash games is shorter

basically it will be a place where you share links to time killing flash games

badp

The two aren't synonyms by the way

Yawus

Flash games = games made with Adobe Flash.

Or at least that used to be the definition.

Unionhawk

@Yawus I assume that is still the definition

badp

23:55

I suggest you spend the extra characters to say what you mean if you want the room to have a chance of being successful

user15026

@Mbraedleu depends what it is for. :p

badp

@MBR of course! Put in all the speculation and then say that one of the above, or none, will happen. That's factual!!!

Johann

well it doesn't matter

anyway the end

MBraedley

@AshleyNunn I decided against it, even though I have a feeling it's what we'll actually be doing. I really hate writing documentation, especially design documentation, especially when our subcontractors haven't told us everything.

badp

"TBD"

MBraedley

23:58

@badp I'm not senior enough to write that.

badp

Awww. Gotta unlock some achievement first?

How about N/A.

MBraedley

@badp Yeah, member of scientific and engineering staff level 4
