2:00 PM

@RonanForman no you don't, you missed his typo

and my emulated typo

Ronan Forman

@kalina Oh right.

kalina

joke is on you

Ronan Forman

Arg! Getitoffgetitoffgetitoff!

kalina

@LessPop_MoreFizz how can this be anything other than primarily opinion based?

I want to watch @OrigamiRobot bully more police into handcuffing themselves

only so I can headshot them at the last second

Ronan Forman

@kalina That is funny.

kalina

2:02 PM

NO YOU GET YOUR HANDS UP

DOWN ON THE GROUND

OrigamiRobot

@kalina You mean so you can be a jerk?

kalina

CUFF YOURSELF

bang

OrigamiRobot

I was trying to convert them and you guys kept killing them :(

Ronan Forman

@OrigamiRobot Oh you have the conversion skill?

5pike

@OrigamiRobot That ALWAYS happens

kalina

2:03 PM

@OrigamiRobot I'm not the one who convinced us all to stay up and then went off to eat! :p

Private Pansy

The army's logistics and human resource management is amazing

FEichinger

I see, @kalina is brutally murdering people for fun again.

OrigamiRobot

@kalina I came back, I I promised @Fluttershy I'd play Divekick with him earlier. He got home sooner than I expected.

kalina

@FEichinger they were so confused lastnight

"Lets do Nightclub Stealth" I said

"How do we get out?" they said

"Kill everybody" I said

Ronan Forman

"Why?" We said.

kalina

2:04 PM

I don't actually remember my answer

Shotgun Ninja

"How?" I ventured

FEichinger

@kalina That's not confusing, that's just you.

kalina

it was probably something awful though

Ben Brocka

@OrigamiRobot A miserable little pile of sales

Private Pansy

Today two of the soldiers finished their driving lessons and were sent back to the camp where they're suppose go next. One was told to come back in two weeks, and apparently had no trances of the other one ever existing in the system

5pike

2:05 PM

@FEichinger Killing everyone is a valid stealth approach in Payday 2

Blem

How to play fighting games, spam the A button:

Private Pansy

They were then told to go make coffee for the officers

kalina

@5pike it is, if you're quick enough, silenced enough, and generally murder everything before they can communicate with others that there is a problem

MURDER

and KILLING

pew pew pew

Arperum

@PrivatePansy Most people have no trance in the system.

user15026

@Blem This is how I play, no lie

Unionhawk

2:07 PM

@Blem Meta Knight too good

OrigamiRobot

@Blem Valid strategy for The Baz

Private Pansy

@Arperum It's like scoring a job in a large company, showing up to work the next day and being told "hey wait, we have no idea we even hired you"

Arperum

@AshleyNunn Don't your hand starts to hurt from hitting someone constantly in the face?

kalina

@Arperum no, if you look closely, there is less than 1% accuracy

Arperum

@PrivatePansy That would be a trace, not a trance. Little typo there.

Private Pansy

2:08 PM

Uh, oops

kalina

@Arperum life with no trance would be painful

Private Pansy

Also, the national service website here has ads from the local newspaper's job site. National serviceman are not suppose to have jobs, even part time jobs.

Arperum

@kalina The hits that do connect would count up though.

Private Pansy

The irony is killing me here

user15026

@Arperum You build up tolerance over time

OrigamiRobot

2:11 PM

I think this is a legitmate question, but I can also see that it can be merged with this other question: gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/2094/what-is-steam-drm?rq=1 — spartacus 19 mins ago

Arperum

@AshleyNunn Who is your preferred punchbag? Or do you just smack whoever is available?

kalina

ah so tempting

work is giving away 12 17" monitors

do I pinch 3 so I can have 6 screens?

user15026

@Arperum Whoever is around, I am a very equal opportunity player :P

5pike

@kalina Do it

OrigamiRobot

@kalina I'd take em. I am a sucker for free electronics.

kalina

2:12 PM

@OrigamiRobot you're one of those people who has carcasses of derelict electronics all over your house, aren't you?

OrigamiRobot

I took some free 200W PSUs.

Michael Dunfield

@kalina Do it.

OrigamiRobot

@kalina No... not yet...

kalina

LOOK! IN THIS CORNER I HAVE A TAPE HEAD FROM A 1981 SONY WALKMAN

"WHY DO YOU HAVE THAT?!"

Arperum

@kalina BECAUSE IT WAS FREE!

5pike

2:14 PM

@kalina IT COULD COME IN HANDY SOMEDAY!

user15026

@RedRiderX Thank you for the cat, I suppose....

Private Pansy

@AshleyNunn You got a free cat? I want one too!

RedRiderX

@AshleyNunn Yeah I'm not 100% sure if thanks is the right reaction...

ToxicFrog

Kitty \o/

RedRiderX

Join us in Fallen London and you too could have your very own cat in a box!

Arperum

2:15 PM

@AshleyNunn Do NOT use the cat for gaming purposes!

RedRiderX

@Arperum Oh no, the cat is the game.

user15026

@RedRiderX Well, I unwrapped it safely enough, so that is okay.

OrigamiRobot

@kalina I'm sure I can find a use for it.

user15026

@Arperum Oh. Okay :(

Arperum

@RedRiderX How is a cat a game?

user15026

2:17 PM

It is all part of the game

RedRiderX

@Arperum A cat in a box, to be specific.

Private Pansy

@RedRiderX Schrodinger's?

Arperum

@AshleyNunn It might scratch in your hand, even at lightning speed.

RedRiderX

@AshleyNunn Ah, very good then.

kalina

@OrigamiRobot no

RedRiderX

2:18 PM

@PrivatePansy Somewhat like that.

If by somewhat you mean hardly at all.

Michael Dunfield

Killing Floor and all DLC + Red Orchestra added to current IndieGala bundle

kalina

sorry I don't have any more time available in my schedule to play more games

Private Pansy

Whee, payday finally arrived to bring my bank account balance up from single digit figures

kalina

awesome

Arperum

@PrivatePansy Single digit is bad.

kalina

2:19 PM

use your payday to buy payday 2

2

and get two paydays this month

Private Pansy

Someone did the math once. Assuming the army is paying us by the hour, we're currently earning slightly more than S$2 per hour

OrigamiRobot

@kalina Yes!

kalina

@OrigamiRobot no

Private Pansy

That's USD1.57 or 1.19 euros

kalina

cheap labour

Wipqozn

2:22 PM

Apparently I upvoted this question at some point:

Q: Is Mega Man left or right handed?

One question I ask myself since I am a kid: Is Mega Man left or right handed? (I am confused each time he turns left or right) UPDATE: I am adding a bounty for whoever finds me some official press release documents or interviews showing that the character designers of Mega Man wanted him to be ...

mega-man-series

I feel so ashamed.

Private Pansy

@kalina Which they can afford to waste

Wipqozn

Luckily I was able to change it to a downvote.

kalina

no amount of downvoting will ever redeem you

Jason Berkan

So, can someone explain to me how the Steam question is bad subjective?

kalina

because if it's a question about features, it's a duplicate

but his wording seems to be asking more for an opinion

and opinions are banned on stackexchange

2

Jason Berkan

2:26 PM

@kalina ಠ_ಠ. They are most definitely not.

kalina

are too, we have a close reason specifically for it and everything

also your opinion does not agree with stackexchange policy, prepare to be launched into the sun

Michael Dunfield

steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=145451414

Private Pansy

@kalina But that's just like, your opinion man

kalina

@PrivatePansy no, it's official

Michael Dunfield

2/10 at best probebly will just use FL keys

kalina

2:30 PM

at least the third time I've seen that picture today

Michael Dunfield

@kalina My bad.

I'm pretty sure I linked it in here yesterday too.

kalina

you did

Wipqozn

That steam question certainly doesn't fall under bad subjective.

And also isn't a duplicate.

Michael Dunfield

It's good subjective but it spreads like bad subjective!

2

Wipqozn

@MichaelDunfield Clever.

Michael Dunfield

2:32 PM

@Wipqozn Thank you, I ripped it off of Futurama

Wipqozn

@MichaelDunfield I know.

kalina

who stole it off "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!"

Michael Dunfield

@kalina Stealing things is the best.

Sterno

Well, I'm up to Season 4 of my Breaking Bad rewatch, and I still haven't seen an episode where Jesse wasn't a whiny bitch.

kalina

@MichaelDunfield you obviously don't believe that

Sterno

2:34 PM

@Wipqozn You're poisoning the network with your frivolous upvotes.

Wipqozn

@Sterno I was young and foolish!

StrixVaria

2

Sterno

@StrixVaria That needed to be about 1 second longer. This bothers me.

kalina

that would be so fun to do with skittles

Arperum

@StrixVaria IHalf of the cookies fall. He's cheating.

Michael Dunfield

2:35 PM

@kalina What about cocaine?

Wipqozn

@StrixVaria Goldfish kick ass.

fredley

@kalina It's all fun and games until your lips get caught in the mechanism

kalina

@MichaelDunfield could do it with coke, it's not the best surface to use though tbh

fredley

@MichaelDunfield Why don't you try snorting 1m of cocaine and let us know how it goes?

Sterno

I'm feeling impulse purchase-y. What makes Payday 2 awesome?

fredley

2:36 PM

@Sterno Just watch the trailer

kalina

@Sterno left 4 dead with bank heists and hostages to kill

OrigamiRobot

@Sterno We make it awesome

kalina

MURDER ALL THE HOSTAGES

FUCK THE POLICE

2

Sterno

That sounds more like FUCK THE HOSTAGES

OrigamiRobot

@kalina Only if they buy me dinner first.

kalina

2:37 PM

FUCK THE HOSTAGES

MURDER THE POLICE

Sterno

And now I own it. Thanks a lot, Bridge!

OrigamiRobot

POLICE THE HOSTAGES

kalina

MURDER THE FUCK

ok now quickly

Michael Dunfield

kalina

everybody remove sterno from your friends list

2

so he has to play a coop game solo

Wipqozn

2:38 PM

@Sterno It's a lot of fun.

That's what makesit awesome.

fredley

@Sterno Not sure if sarcastic thanks or actual thanks...

Wipqozn

But basically you and a 3 friends rob banks and jewelry stores. It's pretty radical.

@Sterno Oh goodie.

The more people who own it the easier it is to have a group of 4 at all times.

kalina

I actually prefer to sell it as "basically you and three friends cook meth, kill rival gangs and then explode a bus"

OrigamiRobot

What have I started?

Sterno

@kalina I'm awesome at playing co-op games with my 40 minutes of free time a night!

Really stupid question no doubt, but I've found loads of guides online about monster infusion, but I've not managed to turn up an answer on how I unlock the monster infusion scheme to start with.

Private Pansy

@kalina Breaking Bad: The Game?

kalina

@PrivatePansy nah but it references

Sterno

I don't remember any exploding buses in Breaking Bad.

kalina

@Sterno seriously? You need to make some free time

fredley

kalina

2:40 PM

@Sterno you must remember incorrectly, everything else exploded, a bus must have been one of the things that exploded

Q: What does Steam give me as a gamer?

I know I can buy games in Steam, but what are the benefits of doing so over purchasing a no-DRM version of a game? What features does Steam provide to an average gamer to improve their gaming and user experience?

steam

21

Q: What is Steam? DRM?

What exactly is Steam? Isn't it DRM? What can I do with it?

steam

fredley

Sterno

@OrigamiRobot Digital Herpes

I wouldn't call those dupes

One is "WTF is this thing?" and the other is "Why should I use this thing?"

Wipqozn

@Sterno You should consider selling your children so you have more free time.

OrigamiRobot

@Sterno I originally read it as "Why should I use this?" as well.

kalina

2:41 PM

@Sterno they do both kinda answer the same question

OrigamiRobot

And VTC'd as opinion based.

Wipqozn

Not really. They're different, as @Sterno pointed out.

kalina

children are bad, they should all be sold

Wipqozn

One is asking what something is, and the other is asking what are the advantages of using that thing.

OrigamiRobot

The accepted answer implies he just wanted to know what Steam is.

Wipqozn

2:42 PM

@OrigamiRobot That giant list of things that steam offers?

aka the benefits?

Private Pansy

@kalina Well, we were all children once. Except for @OrigamiRobot. He doesn't have a childhood :(

kalina

are we going to argue about this?

because I don't want to argue right now

Sterno

I mean, there can definitely be overlap. "Q: WTF is an oven mitt? A: It lets you get things out of the oven without burning your hand." and "Q: Why should I use an oven mitt? A: So you don't burn your hand when you get things out of the oven."

fredley

@kalina What are you doing here then?

Wipqozn

@PrivatePansy @Sterno wasn't either. He was born a creepy old man.

OrigamiRobot

2:43 PM

@kalina I'm doing this for @Sterno

kalina

@PrivatePansy speak for yourself, I was born 19, angelic, and free spirited

what is this childhood you speak of?

OrigamiRobot

I think this is a legitmate question, but I can also see that it can be merged with this other question: gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/2094/what-is-steam-drm?rq=1 — spartacus 51 mins ago

Sterno

@OrigamiRobot It is appreciated, but I'm about to go get lunch!

fredley

@kalina Carefree innocent portion of your life

OrigamiRobot

@Sterno It's not even 11

kalina

2:44 PM

@fredley every day of my life is carefree and innocent

Sterno

I also am home from work today, so maybe I'll play Payday 2 when it finishes downloading. but probably not.

fredley

@kalina HA

kalina

@Sterno only if you want to look at the clock in 8 hours and go "where did my day go?"

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn "What can I do with it" is that same as "What are the benefits?"

Sterno

@kalina That's usually the goal.

SaintWacko

2:45 PM

Morning, Bridge

kalina

@OrigamiRobot "what are the benefits" is subjective, since the benefits for one user may not be universal for all

user15026

@SaintWacko Morning! :)

OrigamiRobot

@Sterno I'll put it this way: When I got home yesterday, I started Payday 2 before removing my pants.

Sterno

I don't really see a downside to merging them.

user15026

@OrigamiRobot Oh my, it must be interesting

Sterno

2:46 PM

I'd feel stronger if we were trying to close as a dupe

kalina

@Sterno like @OrigamiRobot when I got home yesterday I had the game started up before I got changed out of my work attire

by work attire, I mean swapping jeans and tshirt for pyjamas

Sterno

@kalina and @OrigamiRobot get home, play Payday 2 together, and get undressed. @Wipqozn joins in. Data accepted.

kalina

pyjamas != naked

OrigamiRobot

I was wearing a robe.

kalina

your interpretation is incorrect

Sterno

2:47 PM

Fixed.

kalina

also @Wipqozn was there

fredley

@Sterno Why the hell is it so hard for everyone to format these messages correctly?

OrigamiRobot

@Sterno Yea, the 4 opinion votes make it hard.

Jason Berkan

@OrigamiRobot 9

Sterno

@fredley No one else cares.

Wipqozn

2:48 PM

@OrigamiRobot Oh wow, that's impressive.

Michael Dunfield

@fredley how would you do it?

Wipqozn

You never wear pants at home.

fredley

FORMAT FOR DATA MESSAGES IS ALL CAPS FOLLOWED BY A COLON FOLLOWED BY DATA ACCEPTED ALL IN CODE TAGS: DATA REJECTED

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn I took off my pants after I started the game. While it was loading.

fredley

@Wipqozn ~~at home~~

kalina

2:49 PM

Do the opposite of what @fredley just said: dATA aCCEPTED

Private Pansy

@fredley TOO META

fredley

@kalina :'-(

OrigamiRobot

@fredley Don't talk like you know.

fredley

@OrigamiRobot Shut up, robot

kalina

@OrigamiRobot don't act like you know

Wipqozn

2:49 PM

We should all hug.

Private Pansy

I think the title of this question should be just "How can I silence the lambs?" — Doozer Blake 1 hour ago

Wipqozn

I feel like a hug party.

Sterno

without pants

kalina

killing hostages is more therapeutic than hugging

99% of kalinas agree

OrigamiRobot

The format is DATA: STATUS OF DATA

fredley

2:50 PM

Everybody get naked and hug....now.

user15026

@Wipqozn prepares the hug gun

Sterno

What if you hug the hostages to death?

Unionhawk

@AshleyNunn RUN

Wipqozn

@fredley I'm already naked.

Private Pansy

@kalina Where is the 1% of you that disagrees?

fredley

2:50 PM

@OrigamiRobot What is the format for data entry?

Private Pansy

Is it your appendix?

kalina

@PrivatePansy busy setting fire to things

Sterno

Doesn't killing the hostages defeat the purpose of having hostages?

kalina

@Sterno no

the purpose of hostages is to kill them randomly in cross fire

OrigamiRobot

@fredley Robot.

badp

2:50 PM

@Sterno Just don't kill them all, or get more.

kalina

it's in the rules

does nobody else read the rules?

Unionhawk

@kalina no

Fluttershy

That Steam question needs to stahp being upvoted. <_<

fredley

@OrigamiRobot Silly wobot.

kalina

ok well

the rules clearly state

user15026

2:51 PM

@Fluttershy yeah :(

fredley

@kalina There are rules?

kalina

1- use silenced weapons only

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy Your face needs to stop getting upvoted.

kalina

2- kill all hostages

Wipqozn

Man, I burned you so bad.

I'm so clever.

kalina

2:51 PM

3- if it hasn't gone wrong yet, make it go wrong to end the anticipation your crew is experiencing

Private Pansy

Unionhawk

@kalina Doesn't it dock you money for killing civilians...?

Sterno

Is the teammate AI as annoying and stupid in Payday 2 as it is in L4D?

Private Pansy

So far I've received zero hugs wearing this shirt. I need to change that.

kalina

@Sterno worse, single player is not an option

OrigamiRobot

2:52 PM

@badp If this gets closed again, can you merge it with this?

fredley

kalina

too much environmental interaction for the NPCs to be useful

3ventic

@kalina Lies. I play singleplayer.

kalina

@Unionhawk who cares? $8000 or civilian head sprayed all over the floor

3ventic

Though, I only play some of the missions in singleplayer

badp

2:53 PM

@OrigamiRobot I ca---OMG THAT GIF closes tab

3

OrigamiRobot

@scovacs1's answer would be great on @Raven's question.

kalina

@3ventic I did nightclub solo

the NPCs stood humping each other outside

Sterno

I saw the first 10 minutes of MLP: Equestria Girls. I reiterate: you people are all insane.

3ventic

@kalina That's a horrible mission to solo..

kalina

felt like they added plenty to the overall success of the mission

Private Pansy

2:54 PM

I think we've found @badp's kryptonite

kalina

@3ventic it's actually quite easy

OrigamiRobot

@badp And it just got closed.

fredley

@PrivatePansy Ponies?

Private Pansy

@Sterno I watched the whole thing, and I'm inclined to agree.

kalina

@Sterno what's wrong with equestria girls?

badp

2:54 PM

@PrivatePansy It's not very effective kryptonite, I can just mod abuse it all year long

fredley

@kalina Everything

kalina

apart from it being horrible

3ventic

@kalina It's fast, but I hate escapes so I don't do it.

kalina

@3ventic you don't get an escape if you leave without getting caught

badp

here it was convenient to close the tab given @OrigamiRobot's request so I didn't mod abuse!!

Private Pansy

2:54 PM

@kalina Horrible is putting it mildly

fredley

Sterno

@kalina It's probably excellent for it's target demographic of young female children.

kalina

also, escapes are awesome because I don't get in trouble for mowing down an entire city worth of police

3ventic

@kalina How do you leave a nightclub carrying 4 money bags without being seen? Impossibru

Kevin van der Velden

@fredley mod abuse in 3... 2...

kalina

2:55 PM

@3ventic truck out of the window

fredley

Ponies are @badp's sloths

Michael Dunfield

Can we stop with the pony gifs please?

3

kalina

@MichaelDunfield no

3ventic

@kalina Ahh of course. The slow way.

OrigamiRobot

@badp I said "if it gets closed". I wasn't asking for abuse. :(

Sterno

2:55 PM

Especially the animated ones.

kalina

time is irrelevant if you don't get caught

I rolled a joint while waiting for the truck

was not an issue at all

badp

@OrigamiRobot I'm just wary of merging stuff I'm not comfortable with

Private Pansy

@Sterno I honestly am not sure if children would want to watch a high school movie

Sterno

@PrivatePansy My niece is just shy of 4 and likes it.

Michael Dunfield

@kalina Without being seen?

kalina

2:56 PM

@MichaelDunfield yes

Wipqozn

@MichaelDunfield More pony gifs you say?

Private Pansy

@Sterno Does a four year old even understand the concept of high school?

Michael Dunfield

Do you have an invisible truck or something?

Private Pansy

Then again the only high school movie I've ever watched and liked is Juno, so...

Sterno

@PrivatePansy That is probably irrelevant to her enjoyment.

kalina

2:57 PM

oh god

5pike

@kalina @OrigamiRobot - would you add me to your steam friendliest, so that we might play Payday 2 together?

kalina

at least when you were called GnomeSlice I expected stupidity

OrigamiRobot

@badp I'm just trying to fix the "closed for the wrong reason" problem

kalina

now you said you were going to be all grown up but it's not working

OrigamiRobot

@5pike I don't have any friends :(

Michael Dunfield

2:57 PM

I'm sorry I'm dumb.

2

Sterno

@kalina Be nice to @gnomeslice

badp

@OrigamiRobot I'm not sure they're dupes but they seem close enough. Merging

Merging it does seem like an acceptable solution.

Merging is better than just duping I'd say.

FEichinger

@kalina It's "GnomieBear" until he changes his name back, don't forget.

kalina

...why?

5pike

@kalina Alright.
