Q: What Monkey Island game features the start of this song?

AndresI am quite sure that Como El Sol from Dread Mar-I starts exactly the same as a song from Monkey Island. I did however search through the Mix'n'Mojo soundtracks collection and couldn't find that song. Does this come from a Monkey Island song? Which one?

Voted to reopen.
Wait, I can vote to reopen??
@GnomeSlice Yes.
That's new.
@GnomeSlice No it isn't.
If a question is closed, anyone with a high enough rep to vote to close gets a vote to reopen thing instead.
@Powerlord I was referring to the observational ability to notice that I had it.
@Powerlord Also, I didn't know I could vote to close, either.
@GnomeSlice It only takes 3k rep to cast close/reopen votes...

A: Is it possible to shoot a chicken in a minecart?

GnomeSliceI ran a few simple tests, and it looks like no, you can't. The hitbox of the minecart completely swallows up the chicken, which becomes effectively invulnerable. You just end up breaking the minecart. ...

Whaps. That video didn't come out correctly.
I feel dumb.
I went and created this huge set of key/value and key/array sets... and then didn't put them in the parent key/array set.
Whoops.
I also just crashed my test TF2 server. Whoops.
I'm hoping it was due to all those leaked handles that weren't cleaned up and not an error on my part.
Yay, once the server restarted post-crash it seemed to work properly. :)

15:10
I loled
@Powerlord Woah, Google has physical billboards promoting Chrome now?
@YiJiang Apparently.
After all, they want people to use it so they can gather even more data about you (unless you find out about Chromium and use that instead)
LOL
> On a humorous side note, several of the regular computer users who participated in Canonical's Unity usability tests mistakenly thought that the Software Center's brown paper bag icon in the dock was a recycle bin.
Ah well, that's it. The second browser war is over, we can declare Chrome as the winner now
> Chrome OS, the non-operating-system OS that powers Chromebooks, now can do a lot of the things it couldn’t late last year. You can print! You can plug in cameras and USB sticks/devices! There’s a music/video player! It sounds like…. Windows, MacOS and Linux. Huzzah!
@YiJiang Yes, because I want to run an OS that has no capabilities except a web browser...
Oh, and apparently printing and a music/video player.
15:18
@Powerlord The only thing a web browser really can't do nowadays is open sockets arbitrarily
@badp And, oh off the top of my head, play games like TF2.
One and a half years on, I still don't "get" Chrome OS. What the hell is it suppose to be? Surely claiming that "everything" can be done with a browser is ridiculous
@YiJiang Those are all over Amsterdam.
Google wants you to write programs to run inside the browser that run in their NaCl sandbox rather than running actual apps.
@YiJiang I disagree.
15:20
If I'm writing native x86 code anyway, why wouldn't I just run it directly on an OS, rather than through a translation layer in a browser?
You mean NaCl isn't cross-platform etc.?
@Powerlord Well, safety, stability, integrity.
@badp No it isn't, NaCl is x86 only.
@badp I thought it was.
@Powerlord Doesn't mean it doesn't run on a 64-bit platform.
@Powerlord Uh, the Chrome netbooks aren't ARM based?
15:22
@ArdaXi Depends on the OS.
Also, S.M.A.R.T. is confusing.
I see all kinds of TEC thingies, but no idea what they all mean.
@badp No, they're Intel Atom processors.
(I had to look that up)
@ArdaXi I will say this: The NaCl SDK only includes 32-bit x86 binaries for building programs.
@ArdaXi My biggest problem is that, sure a lot of things can be done in the browser, but what if you don't like what's on offer right now, or if it can't do what you need it to do, like say with Google Docs?
@YiJiang You get a HTML5 VNC client.
Yes. That actually exists.
@ArdaXi Well then god help us when there's no 3.5G wireless connection
15:29
Besides, it's possible to run binaries, even Wine on Chrome OS.
Exists... and totally defeats the point of a Chromebook.
So you could even put Office on there.
And if you say that defeats the point of a Chromebook then you're just attacking the Chromebook for what it is supposed to do.
@ArdaXi I was under the impression that Google has written a new GUI layer for Chrome OS. I assumed that was to stop existing windowed apps from working on it.
@Powerlord Well, I know Hexxeh did it.
@ArdaXi That does defeat the point of a Chromebook... seeing as the main selling point of Chromebook is to do everything in the web browser, and is what sets it apart from any other Netbook.
15:31
Heh, Facebook admitted to hiring a private PR company to plant negative Google stories in the press.
@Powerlord Well, I do believe it's possible to do everything in the browser.
I already do, most of the time.
@ArdaXi I was under the impression that it was suppose to be an viable alternative to traditional netbook OSes
I mean, look at how much webmail is used as opposed to email clients.
@ArdaXi So, "I already do except when I don't" ? What kind of argument is that?
You can't do everything in the browser, but you can do a percentage of things that is approaching the number of things that people like my mom do with computers, so I'm all for it.
15:33
@Powerlord I use my browser for most anything. I could use it for everything, but certain things I don't want to bother migrating.
I mean, I'll never need/want one myself, but it'd be great for some folks.
But stuff like IM I have a client for now, but I could use the web for that.
Anyway, meeting time!
Frankly, I already mistrust things like Google Docs... I'd rather not put my (possibly private) documents into the Cloud, thanks.
You can even play FPSes in the browser.
@Powerlord So run your own. I do.
15:34
Is "NaCl" pronounced "sodium"? Cos I am really not interested in trying to communicate with someone about it verbally if it's anything else.
@MatthewRead NaCl is Natrium Chloride.
I'd read it "en-a cee-el"
Or, wait, is natrium sodium?
@ArdaXi sodium = natrium
Right.
15:35
@ArdaXi Sodium chloride ie. table salt
@YiJiang Just about to say that.
@MatthewRead Just tell them it's salt.
Wow durr. My brain equated "salt" with "sodium"
I will call it salt, yes
lol
@MatthewRead I'd pronounce the letters alone, like badp said. Or just the full name sodium chloride
Well, sodium is a metal, chlorine isn't, so yes, it's a salt.
I think I will stick with Plan B and never attempt to speak about this.
15:37
Why would you ever want to discuss native client anyway?
Nerd dev purposes, of course.
Does anyone still use "Natrium" any more? Doesn't appear in my chemistry textbook, hmmm
@YiJiang It's the correct name in german
Oh, that explains it
In Dutch as well, which is why I used it.

Q: Top Co-op games for PC(shared screen mode).

gkt.proI am looking for co op Tactical(fps) games that can be played on same pc (split screen something). Please post a exhaustive list.

P.S. I'm a fool.
I was testing things on my TF2 Event server, forgetting completely that it has a different whitelist than my production servers.
Well, guess what... the default TF2 whitelist forces all sounds to come from Steam.
So, my hl1 and hl2 sound sets worked up until a map change, and then stopped... had me stumped. Apparently, I'm not setting the sv_pure setting on the command line, and it only takes effect on map change, so setting it in server.cfg makes it not affect the first map...
Mental note: add +sv_pure 1 to startup scripts.
or apparently autoexec.cfg gets executed before the first map change.

@badp True, but the Jag's building speed increase is an active effect... i.e. only when you hit a building with the Jag. Of course, the other wrenches also increase building speed if you hit a building with them when they're going up, just not by as much.

Jag is pro weapon.

because I use it
@ThomasMcDonald So how do you defend yourself.
@Powerlord I think because it's nonexistant
At least that's how I read "Mythic Rare"
@badp No, it's a real card. Apparently Mythic Rares make up one of every eight rares in that set.
Still, you need two of each color mana to summon that creature...
But... protection from everything?
and if you somehow manage to destroy, it gets shuffled back into the owner's deck? :P

@Powerlord I think I actually read some explanation for that one, since I recently ran into that card not long after PAX East.
It was on the TVTropes article for Magic: The Gathering, I believe, so I think it'll still be there. Probably under "Awesome but Impractical", with an explanation for why.
Cool!!
@Powerlord Nothing with that mana cost is overpowered
@sjohnston Protection from everything means that nothing of any color (including artifacts) can affect it. Meaning only colorless cards...
@Powerlord I think this sums it up:
> I'd talk about him... but he has protection from being talked about.
Granted, the person who played it can sacrifice it... or be made to sacrifice it.
I forget which cards force a player to sacrifice a creature.

@Powerlord no, nothing of any color can target or deal damage to it. Wrath of god, for example, would kill it
@sjohnston -kill +put it back in your deck
(from what I read)
@badp sure, unless an exile effect somehow applies
@sjohnston I don't know enough about new cards to know if there are instants that can force a creature to be exiled when they would normally go to the graveyard... but if there is, there's surely a card to exile creatures directly, no?
In any case, to use him, you need both a way to get to him (since you're not terribly likely to draw him) and a way to pay for him or otherwise get him into play. Since you need to really engineer your deck around the card's use for it to be at all effective, I don't think it's overpowered
