7:00 PM
I'm fairly convinced it's someone on Garfield. if not the old lady across the back lane, then one of the houses closer to Wellington.
 
I wish the OUYA would die already and let everyone talk about the GameStick
 
@Sterno I have all of three icons on my desktop.
 
GameStick is a terrible, terrible name.
 
Which for the most part I never use and one of them doesn't even need to be there anymore, so...
 
@Sterno Yes, but it is an excellent excellent product.
 
Also, OUYA is a pretty shitty name too
 
Most product names a terrible, you just get used to them
 
@JasonBerkan UGH
 
@GraceNote I've got about 8 but that's because I'm too lazy to delete some icons that got auto-installed to it.
 
Playstation probably sounded moronic over a decade ago too
 
On the other hand, my taskbar has like 12 pins in it
 
@BenBrocka OUYA is actually terrible though.
 
@Sterno I always mark off those. The only things on my desktop are the Recycle Bin that won't go away, and a text file which I have no idea where else I want to put it.
After all, what's the point of a nice wallpaper if I can't see it?
 
@BenBrocka The Wii(-U) still sounds silly, really. We're just used to it at this point.
 
I arrange my desktop icons around the outside of my screen.
 
My big desktop is getting cluttered though... I temporarily store music and games there when they're in limbo between being downloaded and eing filed in teh correct places and they're piling up becaues depression.
 
@GnomeSlice That's why Bill Gates invented a Downloads folder.
 
@Sterno Effort. Also even though it probably works for Windows 7 I will still say I don't have Vista just to be that much more lazy.
 
@Sterno That's crowded too
I need to wipe it out and start over.
 
@TrentHawkins Yeah. Though there's a silver lining with the Wii U; you can append U to your games title, just like Super and 64
 
7:06 PM
@BenBrocka Or 360 for the xbox 360
 
Did that many games actually do that?
 
Dunno actually.
Probably not.
 
...aw curses there are actually things in the bin that I might actually consider undeleting but wargh to figure out which is which.
 
Definitely with the 64
@GraceNote Delete them all and then you don't have to worry about it
 
X-Bone games should append "one" to the end of their titles. :D
 
7:07 PM
@GnomeSlice Would rather not.
 
@TrentHawkins Final Fantasy One?
 
@TrentHawkins Or bone. ContraBone EarthBoned
Of course in Japan it's MotherBone 2
 
No. Final Fantasy XV One.
 
@JasonBerkan That'll get messy with the inevitable FF XV - 2
 
@BenBrocka That works, but I was more thinking along the lines of confusing users. "Mass Effect One? but I already own that... don't I?"
 
7:09 PM
FF XV -3 Lightning Keeps Coming Back Even Though We Locked That Damn Door WTF
 
FF XV One - 2. It just rolls off the tongue.
 
Journey is $3.75 for US PS+. http://j.mp/16LoP2g
Some other cool shit is on sale on the US PSN too
 
@BenBrocka US
Stupid
 
No idea if Canada is included
I always hear about US/EU never the canada or pretty much anywhere else
 
@BenBrocka The Canada?
 
7:13 PM
@JasonBerkan No, a Canada.
 
I was about to say something with a the instead of canada
But I kind of like it now
 
@BenBrocka usually canada is included, since they are both part of the North American region... the US us just self-centric.
 
You guys are the worst
 
@GnomeSlice Better than being the Canada.
 
@GraceNote ಠ_ಠ
 
7:15 PM
...okay that was mean.
 
@GraceNote Come live here for awhile. :P
 
@GraceNote So, even you have a streak of Canada in you.
 
@BenBrocka Also, there's some info about the GameStick storefront and business model here in an interview.
Ugh, Gamasutra is so ugly
 
The forgotten Canada
 
7:16 PM
@GnomeSlice makes me think of spacechem too.
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah but their articles are great
 
@BenBrocka Yeah.
 
@GnomeSlice What would you say it is that makes Gamestick awesome? I just read a bit about it and the only thing I saw that stood out is that it's small.
 
@Sterno Form factor is a big thing for me. It's so small and sexy.
 
That's what she sa... oh, nevermind.
 
7:18 PM
Also, everything I've seen has said it's extremely polished.
The OUYA was focused a lot on opennes and shit like emulators and being able to hack it and shit, but the GameStick has been approached more traditionally.

A: Running the CraftBukkit Server for minecraft?

Wonder_Creeperi have the same thing but it says java is not a recognisable command WHY THE FUCKING HELL IS THIS AND HOW DO I FIX THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Not welcome!
 
I really like the form factor though. It's just so portable.
It's almost like mobile gaming (phone), except it's on the TV
Something about it really excites me
 
@MBraedley and that's why I always post the answer itself...
 
@alexanderpas lol
 
7:20 PM
Not sure I like that controller design but portability is nice.
 
@Sterno That's the old one.
It still looks pretty similar, but it's apparently actually a very nice controller.
I was expecting to see articles complaining about it but everyone has been pretty positive
also you can get skins for it
 
> This game... makes me want to stab myself. -Zach Barth (SpaceChem)
 
if you're into that sort of thing.
@alexanderpas x_x I thought SpaceChem was really hard too
I only played like one level
I should play it again, never really tried to get into it
@alexanderpas Is this a good thing?
 
Oh come on people, don't just downvote the offensive post, get rid of it!
 
Fans of Spacechem should check out Great Permutator.
@MBraedley I didn't even downvote it, I just flagged it.
 
7:24 PM
@GnomeSlice Yes, that's a good thing.
 
@alexanderpas Check out the link I just posted.
I think you would be interested.
Be warned it's fucking difficult though
 
Get your learning on dogs!
 
Hey, my name is in the trailer.
 
@Blem These are the best
 
7:28 PM
 
It's ded
 
@BenBrocka Yay!
 
For once it actually had 2 delete votes already
 
@BenBrocka I can't see those.

Q: What option will generate fewer aquifers in world gen?

Kyle ShepardI am facing an aquifer at every conceivable location it seems. I finally figured out how to tunnel through on a freezing map, but I don't want to spend so much time above ground. My dwarves need their tunnels.

 
7:41 PM
Need a 50k permission to mark your own answer as accepted immediately.
 
@Sterno I want the ability to see deleted comments.
 
@StrixVaria Then you'd get to read about 8 comments from me all saying the same thing as I work on the wording.
 
@Sterno You realize there's an option not to submit comments until you like the wording, right?
 
Can you be arrested for loitering?
 
@GnomeSlice Yes.
Don't be a criminal.
 
7:48 PM
Maybe that's what this guy got arrested for then.
That's the second security officer who has come into the lab today and looked at the back, then left.
 
@StrixVaria Yes. But sometimes I notice a typo more than 5 minutes later and it bugs me. Or I say something rude and I want to remove that but leave the rest of my point.
 
Maybe they're just making sure he didn't come back.
@StrixVaria ???
@Sterno I do this too except I usually add the rude stuff in later.
 
@Sterno True.
I do the latter sometimes.
 
Give me upvotes guys.

@StrixVaria Basically, I shotgun my comment out there, read it again 10 minutes later, decide I hate the wording, and delete and redo it.
Example:
If you were going to build criteria in this way, you'd want to make the rules for it being on-topic rather than off-topic. Otherwise, per these rules, I could currently ask something completely unrelated to gaming but which satisfies rules 2 and 3, and it would still be on-topic because it didn't violate all three criteria. That said, even if you edit your answer to match what I think you intended to say, I think this is a bad idea, because I firmly believe the answer to a question should not affect whether or not the question itself is on-topic. — Sterno 8 mins ago
 
7:52 PM
@GnomeSlice Same thing right?
 
@OrigamiRobot Which thing?
 
I hate that first sentence. I know what I meant, but it's unclear.
 
@GnomeSlice That thing.
 
I need a 2 hour comment edit window.
 
I'm pointing at it.
 
7:52 PM
@OrigamiRobot I can't see you through the internet.
 
@gnomeslice I'm giving you a flashing clue.
 
I see the star post.
 
(depending on what the update speed is)
 
@GnomeSlice I am pointing as hard as I can.
 
What thing is the same
I said something about upvotes
I don't get rep any more unless I beg for it.
 
7:53 PM
@GnomeSlice is hopeless.
2
 
@OrigamiRobot Thank you.
20 whole rep today, thanks guys!
 
It must be from when I complained about it before.
 
@GnomeSlice THE STAR! THE STAR! THE STAR IS THE SAME AS AN UPVOTE! THE. STAR.
 
OH
I wasn't sure if you had starred it.
I get it now.
Hahaha, I guess.
 
7:56 PM
@GnomeSlice Key to earning more rep in a day: Write some questions and answers that day.

@Sterno Well yeah, but even this doesn't always work.

Q: What are 'Air Support Units', and what do they do?

GnomeSliceI won my last game in atWar (for the first time!), and now I have a bunch of shiny SP to spend on some upgrades. Most of them have pretty straightforward descriptions (stealth units can't be seen on the map, for example), but there's one that doesn't really tell you what it does. Unlocks A...

Q: Which food items heal you?

GnomeSliceIn Pitman's help topic for 'items', it mentions that some food items won't just fill his belly, they will also heal him, but it doesn't say which ones. I'd like to prioritize picking up healing food items over standard ones due to my limited inventory capacity. Which food items heal you, and by...

 
@Sterno I'm too good at figuring stuff out myself, and then I immediately forget about them.
 
Oh, that one got a vote
 
@GnomeSlice Play games that at least one other user also plays.
 
@3ventic I do this too.
@JasonBerkan No.
 
7:57 PM
That and I play a 9 years old game using a multiplayer mod developed over the last 8 years..
 
whoops wrong numbers

Q: Can you back up Mobiloid save data?

GnomeSliceBecause of the pretty bad main menu in Mobiloid, I just accidentally deleted my entire game while trying to play some more to see about getting into a secret room I'd found. Is there any way to back up my data to this from happening by accident again? The only other file in the install director...

Q: Can I Import Data From the iOS Game to the Android game?

GnomeSliceI've been playing Arel Wars 2 on iOS, and I'd like a way to transfer my game data to my new Android tablet. Can the built-in import/export features in the game do this? If they can, I can't figure it out.

WTF WHO DOWNVOTED IT
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah, it hurts if no one plays the game.
 
why does it show 0 in chat
 
@GnomeSlice Do what @agent86 did to accrue his fame and wealth, and Google the answers and transform that result into well-written answers.

Q: I only see 29 achievements for Bleed, but Steam says there's 32?

GnomeSliceAs I said, I can only count 29 achievements here, but Steam is telling me there's 32 of them. Am I missing something here, or is Steam just making a mistake? Are there hidden achievements or something?

That sort of works, but it attracts hate downvotes.
 
7:59 PM
So, my daily downvotes stopped yesterday. YoungGuilo got suspended. Coincidence?
 
@Sterno nah, I used condiment bribery.
 
@GnomeSlice So do boobies. Still a net gain.
