@LessPop_MoreFizz Thank goodness for the 3-day grace period.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Canada has other plans, and is trying to kill you.

@PrivatePansy It's pretty damn nice, got mine tuesday

Fluttershy

@Sterno Oh. Well... You're welcome! :D

Ben Brocka

My main problem is the ancient emulators I usually use don't scale controls well for tablets, and the newer emulators don't work with my old saves

Private Pansy

The resolution is higher than the 10" tablet I'm using now

Ben Brocka

But that's not really the tablet's fault, that's old android 2.1 coding's fault

Poor Paolo.

Private Pansy

1:38 PM

I'm feeling a little stupid right now, but why is the "across shoulder" T-shirt measurement larger than the "chest (under armpit)" measurement?

fbueckert

@Sterno Woo! I'm outlasting them all!

LessPop_MoreFizz

@PrivatePansy Because your arms are three dimensional things and have width

Private Pansy

Can't be right. These numbers are too small for a circumference measurement

LessPop_MoreFizz

@PrivatePansy Who said anything about circumference

@PrivatePansy don't make me draw this shit

OrigamiRobot

@PrivatePansy There is a distance between your armpit and the outside of your arm.

Private Pansy

1:43 PM

Uh, stupid, I mean smaller

I mean, the shoulder measurements are smaller than the chest measurements

Which doesn't seem possible

LessPop_MoreFizz

@PrivatePansy Oh, that's because part of the shoulder coverage is covered by the sleeve.

OrigamiRobot

@fbueckert Previous one is older.

fbueckert

@OrigamiRobot The question is slightly different.

References external hard drives.

OrigamiRobot

@fbueckert They're both about installing games to another drive.

External/internal is irrelevant.

fbueckert

@OrigamiRobot External drives would work differently, though, if you're planning on using it on other computers.

OrigamiRobot

@fbueckert So would a secondary internal drive.

fbueckert

2:07 PM

@OrigamiRobot Not really. Those are more or less permanent.

OrigamiRobot

I can take my drives out whenever I want.

Ben Brocka

Really the only difference is the ease of sticking them in another PC, it's possible either way

StrixVaria

Are you kidding? 6 delete votes and it's not gone.

fbueckert

Your account was removed because it was very clearly a sock puppet of another user, used to ask questions for them to answer and to direct votes to their questions and answers. This was the second time you had done so, and we'd hoped you got the message the first time. Do not keep creating false accounts like this one to vote for your content. If we see any indication that this account is being used to work around the suspension of your main account, or to vote for it, we will destroy it again. — Brad Larson 11 mins ago

SaintWacko

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice What about it?

GnomeSlice

I don't know, it's cool.

You said something bad about the one you're using so I suggested a new one.

SaintWacko

Oh, no I just switched back to TOR

Now that they're keeping it up

My RSS app only supports TOR and Feedly

@batophobia That Bing Rewards stuff is great. I did have one question, though. Why did you have it set to loop 90 times, when the max searches you can get points for is 30?

Batophobia

@SaintWacko Mine lets me get 30 points. 1 for every 3 searches. The math works out to 90. Are you Gold status yet?

SaintWacko

3:11 PM

@Batophobia Oh, no

I didn't realize it increased

Mine only allows 15 points, one for every 2 searches

GnomeSlice

I wish I had played Krater when it first came out. Not sure there's much point asking stuff about it on the site now, given it's like 2 years old.

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice Didn't it just recently come out?

It's been in beta for a long time

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko Krater? I don't believe so. Has it?

Lemme check

fbueckert

@GnomeSlice @badp's asked about a 15 year old game.

GnomeSlice

12 Jun 2012 according to steam

so a year

Also the metacritic score is way lower than it should be, wtf

Metacritic is dumb

Maybe I just like bad games

SaintWacko

3:13 PM

@GnomeSlice Yeah, it was in beta for a while before it

@GnomeSlice Eh, I run into the same things

Like Lost Planet

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko I LOVE Lost Planet

SaintWacko

I fucking loved that game, but I don't think its metacritic reviews were that great

Ronan Forman

Large sites give stupidly high ratings (9/10 is bad) whereas smaller ones give more reasonable scales normally. So if a game it reviewed by loads of small sites its score tends to be lower.

GnomeSlice

Both of them.

SaintWacko

@GnomeSlice That game is amazing

GnomeSlice

3:14 PM

Most people hated them but I thought it was the bees knees

SaintWacko

I haven't played the second one

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko I can't wait for LP3

@SaintWacko Aaaah man you need to.

SaintWacko

Seriously, though VS combat was amazing

And that special VS at the end

And the grappling hook

GnomeSlice

They made the story even more confusing, but there's a shitton of new weapons and stuff in LP2. And you can play as a huge number of characters.

SaintWacko

And using it in combat

SaintWacko

Everything about Lost Planet was just so fluid

GnomeSlice

There's this one machine gun that has a blade in it that folds out that you can use as a melee attack

Well there's two actually

SaintWacko

I'll keep an eye out for it to go on sale

GnomeSlice

@SaintWacko did you get the special edition where you could play as the Akrid in multiplayer?

No, I had it on xbox

So do I.

Oh

3:16 PM

You can get that edition on Xbox

SaintWacko

Well, no I didn't

GnomeSlice

Colonies Edition

Ahh man.

SaintWacko

I don't actually remember when or why I got it

GnomeSlice

Playing as the Akrid was amazing.

SaintWacko

Damnit, spam filter, shut up

GnomeSlice

3:17 PM

Occasionally on big maps you'd get to play as the LARGE Akrid too. Like the giant versions of the spider thing or the rolling dudes

The giant four-legged spider thing was insane. You could kill like hundreds of guys at once

The MP in that game was kind of shit though, the dodge-roll exploit was abused so much

You could be in your big robot suit whaling on this guy and not hurting him at all because he's rolling around like an idiot

@SaintWacko Lost Planet 2 is still the best-looking video game I have ever seen.

@SaintWacko if you see it on sale, the colonies edition is worth picking up too

If you still have xbox live

@StrixVaria He actually mentioned it a couple times in chat that he was going through deleting his accounts. I don't thin he was intending to delete Arqade originally, but did after all that non-sense revealing all his votes.

@StrixVaria His intention was to leave without a fuss IIRC.

From what I understand he's still really, really bitter over that too.
