Q: If I build an Alchemy Machine, do I need to keep my Science Machine?

I managed to get my hands on an Alchemy Machine in Don't Starve. This machine gives me access to the Tier 2 crafting prototypes compared to the Science Machine's Tier 1 prototypes. However, I'm not sure if I can destroy my Science Machine now that I have my Alchemy Machine. Will I lose access to...

Wait, what happened while I was gone?

Are people flagging random shit again?

Jin

@fbueckert a lot happened while you were gone. Why don't you stay awhile and listen...

user43095

@fbueckert It's over.

fbueckert

@Jin I'm having too much fun with KSP.

ManishEarth

@fbueckert In short, Evil Nazi Moderator His Highness The Right Royal Manishearth tried to delete the room, but was unable to do so as the sheer amount of crazy in here made him implode.

fbueckert

@ManishEarth That'll teach him.

MechJeb makes my rocket spaz out during ascent.

user20683

00:14

@fbueckert There's also the small matter of my liking this room.

fbueckert

It's amusing to watch.

user20683

despite the insanity

ManishEarth

@WorldEngineer Me too

user43095

@ManishEarth You should stay here a tad longer, see what will happen if just that made you implode.

ManishEarth

Oh, I drop by every now and then :P

Jin

00:15

ManishEarth speaks the truth, but I valiantly fought off the said Nazi Mod with a slice of bacon. It was glorious.

Yannis Rizos

@WorldEngineer You're a Programmers mod. You don't get to tell other people they're insane.

ManishEarth

@Jin Isn't that a waste of perfectly good bacon?

Ullallulloo

@Wipqozn It's not by Ronan.

Wipqozn

@Ullallulloo I think I was the one who did it.

ManishEarth

5:45AM. Sleepytime! :P

SaintWacko

00:18

Wow. That is a lot of mods

fbueckert

Oh, all the blue!

Wipqozn

Found it!

SaintWacko

@fbueckert You also missed @Fluttershy getting suspended

ManishEarth

ah

user20683

@Wipqozn That's just a waste of Godwin's Exception.

Silly Wipqozn. Hitler only killed some people. I'm going to kill all people. shakes head

ManishEarth

@WorldEngineer Rule, not Exception :P

Jin

btw, how is Metro Last Light? Thinking about picking it up later this week

How long is the game play?

Wipqozn

Sep 20 '11 at 23:17, by Raven Dreamer

waits for someone to photoshop hitler's moustache onto @Mana's gravatar

user20683

@ManishEarth Godwin's Exception is the exception to that rule, breaking it intentionally for the "lulz"

Wipqozn

Riiiiight, that's why I did it.

ManishEarth

00:19

@WorldEngineer Ohhhh

Jin

well, Hitler did kill Hitler... so....

> Hitler can't be all bad... after all, he did kill Hitler.

Jin

00:21

@Wipqozn i'm pretty sure i saw it on the internet first.

Wipqozn

@Jin It was a quote frmo somewhere.

The point I'm trying to make is we've run out of conversation. I think it's time we shut down The Bridge.

@AshleyNunn So, how far are you in the game?

Jin

user15026

@powerlord same as before. :) beginning of the standard history stuff for Heiss

FEichinger

@Powerlord Really? ... Dang.

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn Have you played any of Alternate History?

user15026

@powerlord not yet

user20683

00:44

@Powerlord explicate?

user15026

I didn't know which was which but I can always go back and do the other?

Powerlord

@WorldEngineer Radiant Historia.

@AshleyNunn Yes, but you can only switch to points where a decision is made.

> Sony Stock Up Nine Percent After Xbox One Reveal

Makes me wonder how poorly said reveal went.

user15026

@powerlord yeah, I know.

Powerlord

@WorldEngineer Anyway, Radiant Historia's plot splits in half nearly the beginning of the game and you can jump back and forth between them.

I don't know how that quoted a post FOUR BELOW the one I clicked reply to.

fbueckert

@Powerlord And in fact, have to.

user20683

00:46

@Powerlord ah, kinda like Sine Mora with actual choice

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn To build upon what fbuerkert said, you have to switch back and forth for plot reasons.

I generally just keep going until I can't go any further or there's a sidequest I can do without losing progress.

Although figuring out what you need to do for a sidequest is sometimes a challenge in and of itself.

user15026

@powerlord yeah I can imagine it would be.

Powerlord

Well, it turns out that sometimes going back to talk to the quest giver helps.

FEichinger

Star War again?

user15026

What the hell is up with the star shit

FEichinger

00:50

Someone's bored.

fbueckert

I think someone's mad.

FEichinger

Let's start clearing stars then, shall we.

lol

user20683

Stop with the Star Wars or this room gets a time out.

FEichinger

star. unstar. star. unstar. star. unstar.

user43095

Isn't the thing about the blue mods pinned?

Powerlord

00:52

@WorldEngineer There's a reason that users are limited as to how many stars they can use.

I'm surprised they haven't run out yet.

user43095

There's a limit? Must not have ever reached it.

FEichinger

@jeffreylin_ There is. I frequently reach it here.

More often than not in the first couple of hours of a day.

STOP STARRING RANDOM THINGS

LessPop_MoreFizz

@FEichinger No. Starring random things is the Joy of the Arqade People. To deny us this pleasure, is to deny us our very soul.

user15026

@lesspop people still have those?

FEichinger

@LessPop_MoreFizz You kow exactly what I mean by that. :P

LessPop_MoreFizz

00:54

@FEichinger TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME.

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Despite the Bridge's best efforts, yes, I still have my soul.

Powerlord

Did I just see room owners randomly pinning and unpinning things? Perhaps we should remove some room owners?

LessPop_MoreFizz

@FEichinger Yes, I do, and I'm saying that it isn't that big a deal, and is indeed, a part of this rooms identity.

@Powerlord You do, because I was trying to clean things up and somebody countermanded me.

FEichinger

@LessPop_MoreFizz I was helping you clean up. >.<

LessPop_MoreFizz

This should be the state of things.

FEichinger

00:57

Oh, for the love of god.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@FEichinger Just let the toddler get bored.

Powerlord

Do people who star things show up as having recently done things in the user list?

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Powerlord No.

FEichinger

Nope.

user15026

Unfortunately not.

System Shock 2 wherein the player is attacked by Invisible Spiders

LessPop_MoreFizz

@WorldEngineer Fuck those things so hard.

user20683

@LessPop_MoreFizz they aren't so bad with the assault rifle and anti-personnel ammo

fbueckert

@LessPop_MoreFizz There's starring random things for sheer joy is one thing. Starring stuff to be annoying is something else.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@WorldEngineer I last played through as Psi/Energy Weapons.

user20683

@LessPop_MoreFizz ah

LessPop_MoreFizz

01:02

@fbueckert It's only annoying if you let it be and pay attention. Stop talking about it and the overgrown 3 year old will get bored.

@WorldEngineer focused mainly on laser rapier play, which was pretty awesome, but also challenging.

fbueckert

@LessPop_MoreFizz Eh. I'm off to dance class anyways. So I'm ignoring it regardless.

Q: Oliphaunt in Rome Total War lags me out?

There is a type of elephant in RTW called the Oliphaunt. It is a unit that can only be brought into the game through a cheat. However when I go into the battle to see these beasts in action the game lags and then closes out completely. Is there a way to see the elephants in battle without losing ...

Q: Why do I have 76 daughters and only 3 sons?

What increases the chances of having sons in Rome Total War? I need them for heavy generals ( I have 76 daughters and 3 living sons). Is there a "Special" trait that would allow me to have more sons and to continue my family chain?

Q: Did I Miss All the Chapter 3 Side Quests?

So I entered Loc Muinne with Iorveth, and my quest directive basically said to find Phillipa, so I did that immediately. My assumption was that the city was hostile to me and I needed to more or less sneak around. I am having trouble with the golem in the Spellbreaker quest, and because of this...

Q: Candy Box Very Large Numbers

I was experimenting with firebug and found that candy box can handle some very large numbers. This isn't really a "fun" way to play, but kind of neat that the developer didn't make everything completely hidden. If you're interested in playing around with it, open firebug and select the DOM tab ...

Q: When will a village decide to go to war?

I recently had the chance to complete the "Barracks" project upgrade to a School, but one of the requirements is that the village has to have won at least one war.

@AshleyNunn That sounds kinda vague, what do you classify as gaming?

@FEichinger ???

user15026

@FEichinger Oh, Christ on a cracker.

user15026

So what, now I have to start checking where people are from? Joy of joys.

FEichinger

@AshleyNunn My thought exactly when this cuddly fellow did the same over on AU.

Ethan

How old are you guys?

user15026

@FEichinger Ah, I wondered why you were so aware.

@AshleyNunn I am always aware and you know that.

04:21

@spyder Do you like anything else?

fbueckert

@AshleyNunn Check it out. It's got the same mechanics as basically all the other Facebook games, but it's much better about not relying on friends or cash to get stuff done.

@fbueckert This I like.

Q: How can I change loading screen/beginning of match tips in League of Legends?

In loading screen and in the beginning of a match there are various tips shown (they are the same per game). Since they are mostly basic ones, I'd like to change them to some generic tips I'd not remember most times. Is there somewhere to edit loading screen tips?

for all |q|>1

@spyder What kind of guitar do you have?

Have you written any music, I can listen to?

On a totally unrelated note ... Did I mention that I despise Java?

user15026

@FEichinger Not that I can recall, lately

Ethan

Why do you guys chat here?

@FEichinger and C#?

FEichinger

@AshleyNunn Well, then I shall do that again: I hate, despise, loathe and thoroughly wish to kill Java.

@AshleyNunn I'm trying to finish the thing I have to hand in in ... Oh, seven hours.

And it's painful.

user15026

@FEichinger O.o

user15026

I have an econ midterm on Friday that I should likely study for, but I have a couple days yet....

FEichinger

@AshleyNunn What? I don't have to hand it in. But it's bonus points for the exam. And the team partners need those points.

user15026

@FEichinger Fair enough. And 7 hours is a while from now.

Ethan

Why are people in this chatroom

spyder

04:49

@FEichinger No :( C# is very nice <3

FEichinger

@AshleyNunn Gotta take 2 hours of train ride out of that equation. And then consider that I have to work with AWT, which basically means I'm going insane in a matter of minutes.

Ethan

whats AWT?

user15026

@FEichinger Your sanity is dubious at best to begin with, so I worry about you.

FEichinger

@Ethan Oh, will ya cut it already? It's neither funny, nor do you achieve anything by pissing me off.

@AshleyNunn No, I mean really insane. Not normal-me insane.

user15026

@FEichinger Oh. That is not very good at all

FEichinger

04:51

@AshleyNunn Yep. Especially when I have to switch off the sane part of my brain anyway so I can prevent myself from yelling at the screen over the crap that the instructions tell me to do.

Ethan

@FEichinger Who are you?

OrigamiRobot

@FEichinger It takes more muscles to frown than it does to use the ignore feature.

user15026

@FEichinger Yeah, that doesn't really help anything

FEichinger

@Ethan I'm magically the same person who already told you what you're doing wrong in another chat room.

Ethan

Why does no one talk to me

@FEichinger Why are you so mean to me, can't I just talk to people were both humans

FEichinger

04:54

@Ethan As previously established: I have already told you what you're doing wrong.

spyder

Only horrible language is PHP. C++ is a satan's tool but very effective. And our world written on Lisp or Haskell :3

FEichinger

@OrigamiRobot But to use the ignore feature, I'd have to use the mouse. That's impossible right now, given that I'm constantly typing.

@spyder Don't you dare say that. PHP is awesome, if you know how to use it.

Ethan

@FEichinger Why do you get up in the morning

Do you have goals or somthing?

Are you religous?

FEichinger

@Ethan I don't sleep, so there's that.

OrigamiRobot

@FEichinger I find it quite enjoyable.

Ethan

04:57

Why bother living?

Do you have hobbies or somthing?
