Looks like they were lazy and didn't translate the OP
 
@Krazer Considering it's Taiwan, I wouldn't be surprised if they left the original English, at least for the opening. Taiwan has a really surprisingly high level of English fluency among grade-schoolers, IIRC.
Most of the Asian countries do, in fact.

@RedRiderX Don't forget SG:U. I only see one (barely there) reference from @kalina.
 
It is an @AshleyNunn!
 
user15026
Indeed :)

@AshleyNunn Hello @AshleyNunn !
 
It's a @ToxicFrog!

user15026
Winter evening classes suck.
 
3:16 AM
@AshleyNunn Yeah, the sky's so pitch-black when you're done.
The commute home is so freaky.
I keep getting put off by the fact it's already dark when my classes are over! Goddamn, DST...
 
user15026
@Yuki The worst is makinkg myself leave for it when it is dark. I am like "but it is dark and my house is warm and cozy and I dont wanna go out there"
 
user15026
and it was snowing
 
user15026
@Yuki So frustrating
 
You have it worse than me then. My classes start when it's light out so I have no problems actually going to class.
 
@AshleyNunn Are you back from class now at least?
 
user15026
3:20 AM
@ToxicFrog Yeah, we got let out early tonight so I was home by 930
 
user15026
tomorrow night I likely won't be home at this time yet

@AshleyNunn I read "burber" as "bieber" for a second.
 
user15026

Ugh... that was more than I wanted to spend on music tonight
 
user15026
so I decided i didnt want to find out what happened if I left it
 
user15026
3:26 AM
in case it went boom
 
user15026
so I moved it to a different burner, and it continued along like nothing happened
 
@AshleyNunn Get out of the house.
 
Oh dear. That's alarming.

Q: Why Blowing Up other player's Personal Vehicle consider as Bad Sport?

Shivan RaptorI once tried to stick a Sticky Bomb on other player's personal vehicle when the player was away for shopping for guns in Ammu-Nation. When he got back on his ride, BOOM! But a message pops up on the left top of the screen said, Blowing Up other player's Personal Vehicle is considered as "Ba...

 
@Lazers I dunno, maybe because you're blowing up someone else's car?
 
user15026
3:36 AM
@ToxicFrog Yeah I have zero idea what was going on
 
user15026
@Yuki nah, that couldn't possibly be it ;)
 
I worry about GTA players and their interaction with society as a whole. "Why is picking out a car at random, running over, pulling its driver out, tossing him into the street, and stealing his car considered a Bad Thing?"
 
@Yuki to be fair, they are playing GTA
The fact that that is considered a bad thing is honestly surprising to me
It would be like "why is shooting someone repeatedly in the fact with a rocket launcher considered a bad thing in Quake?"
 
Normally, I don't worry about gamers and their (possibly) broken perception of reality, but GTA seems to have a higher percentage of fans believing that what they do in-game is perfectly legal in in reality.
And considering what they do in-game, this is worrying.
@ToxicFrog In my mind, there's a substantial difference between blowing up an NPC's car and blowing up another player's car.
 
I imagine blowing up another player's car is something that Rockstar wants to discourage, overall.
 
3:43 AM
So...is GTA multiplayer meant to be co-op or something?
 
You blew up his car dude. — GnomeSlice 15 secs ago
Well stated sir.
 
Because in keeping with the overall style of the game I've been imagining it as a sort of deathmatch thing
If I were playing GTA online I would fully expect to have a flaming helicopter crash on me within the first five minutes.
 
user15026
Blergh. the power must have cycled while I was gone, because I had to reset my microwave clock, and all my devices are asking for the upstairs internet password.
 
I'm going to bed.
@ToxicFrog That sounds more like Just Cause 2
 
They've added a thing where you can purchase and own legally your own property. I don't know the details on how that works and how the game handles "dude blew up your car", but if I had a car that I owned in-game, I would not be happy if it exploded.
 
3:47 AM
@GnomeSlice It would only be Just Cause 2 if someone parachuted from the crashing helicopter at the last second.
Or, alternately, jumped out and grapple-hooked the ground. And survived.
 
@AshleyNunn Oh, icky.
 
Yes. This man just fell 1 KILOMETER and survived (with no damage) by grappling the ground.
There's stupid physics and then there's stupid physics.

@Yuki Origami
 
@WorldEngineer That's what I thought.
Does this make Kristen Bell the anti-OrigamiRobot?
 
4:08 AM
@Yuki Yes.
 
So if Kristen Bell should ever meet @OrigamiRobot (or vice-versa) and they somehow come in physical contact, the world will end in an earth-shattering matter-antimatter annihilating explosion?
I'm okay with this theory.
 
@Yuki The science checks out.
 
Well, add that to the ever-growing Unified Theory of The Bridge.
"In the beginning, there was fire. And @kalina, but that's beside the point."
"Before the fire, there was @Sterno. Yes, he is that old."
 
@Yuki "And the Bridge saw it and it was @badp's fault."

@LessPop_MoreFizz That will work out well..... :P
 
Eat a bagel.
That probably wont warm you up, I just know it's something I'd rather be doing right now.
 
@AshleyNunn Turn on the oven.
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz That is an unterrible idea, as I could also make cookies
 
Someone should put a comma in my pin.
I feel bad now.
 
@AshleyNunn See!
I R SMRT

@AshleyNunn If nothing else, oven preheating while you decide whether or not to make cookies will warm the apartment.
@Ullallulloo No, I like it without the comma it feels more bibilical

@LessPop_MoreFizz This is true
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I am Weasel.
 
user15026

@Ullallulloo Don't feel bad. It's obviously @badp's fault.

@Lazers Where is NARQ when we need it
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Seriously...
@SaintWacko Yeeeeep.
 
@Unionhawk I had 7 new notifications since this morning because of it
 
I don't even.
 
5:31 AM
Wait, what the fuck?
Someone did it to me on Android too
 
Yeah, same guy.
You're not the only one.
 
@Unionhawk Okay, that makes more sense
 
Best theory we have is it's that guy who was posting nonstop total randomness in chat. 24 hour chat/7 day site ban, rampage, deleted account. Unless I'm totally mistaken.
 
@Unionhawk Oh, what did he get the 7 day site ban for?
 
@SaintWacko Dunno. I think the chat ban was a result of me modflagging him with something to the effect of "He has a stated attitude of 'if everyone ignores me then I can post ALL the randomness', and that is not okay." (in re: "YOU SHOULD HAVE JUST IGNORED HIM OMG")
 
5:37 AM
@Unionhawk Yeah, I know what the chat ban was for
I wonder if he did more than just the nonsense close reasons
 
@SaintWacko Yes.
But not on Arqade, as far as I recall.
 
@FEichinger Ah, okay
Or are you referring to the serial upvoting?
 
And @FEichinger, our resident expert on such matters.
 
@SaintWacko I think we've got at least three people that were cereal'd. But the user also posted some nonsense question about "losing their faith" or whatever on christianity. It's in the transcript somewhere ...
 
@FEichinger I must be one of the three
I had 7 notifications as a result o.0
 
5:40 AM
The associated network account has repeatedly had site accounts removed and made new accounts and is now wiped.
@SaintWacko Yeh, I got a Mortarboard and Nice Answer, too.
The chat account, however, still exists.
(And has an invalid parent account.)
 
@FEichinger Well that's thorough - wait, what?
 
@Unionhawk The beauty of SE's system causes quite some hiccups when site accounts are removed.
 
I kinda figured that's how this episode would end
 
@FEichinger Indeed... and quite more hiccups when accounts are recreated >_>
(you know who you are)
 
@Unionhawk Tsk, tsk, tsk. Don't be mean.
 
5:43 AM
@FEichinger I'm not being mean, I'm just saying they know who they are.
 
super@kal ifragilisticexpialidocious
 
@SaintWacko @kali would've worked, too.
 
@FEichinger good point! I don't know what you're talking about
 
Why are we pinging @kal?
 
@SaintWacko you messed up the ping. Super @kali fragilisticexpialidocious,
 
5:46 AM
We're not.
 
Don't be so mean to @kal.
 
@SaintWacko Three dashes.

Q: Where to go now?

MattI have got the world map and the stone axe. What do I do now? There is no box that says "Let's go" as in the next quest. Or where should the button be and how do you get it? (Candy Box 2)

 
user15026
@Unionhawk Yeah, they really are :(
 
@AshleyNunn Blech, and this one's only available through interlibrary... nope, next search candidate
 
user15026
@Unionhawk Oh man, not even at the library, but one you have to chase down? So not worth it.
 
user15026
This reminds me, I should do my reading response for this week
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, and not even the nice "If UD doesn't have it, but Ohio State or some other giant Ohio school does, then we can tell you, and we can get it" system. The annoying "Tell us what you want and we might get it to you if we can find it."
 
user15026
6:37 AM
Oh man, what are you trying to find? How obscure is it? :P
 
I think my problem might be is it's a journal published in spring 2013.
But it's stuff about technology integration in education.
 
user15026
Ah, yeah, it might not have gotten to anyone yet, if it is that recent. You'd think being a new thing, though, there would be online access someplace....
 
You would think. That and given the subject >_>
 
user15026
Yeaaaah
 
user15026
(Is it sad that the library assistant in me REALLY wants to try and see if I can find it somewhere?)
 
6:41 AM

I outright deleted the reference from things, and really don't feel like finding it... :P

@KevinvanderVelden I can't see it right now, but clouds are certain, because rain. Didn't see any fog this morning though.
 
@Arperum clounds?!
 
@fredley Bleh, fixed.
@fredley Took him 135 days, from which he was in the water for 90 days, the other days the weather was too terrible and he had to stay on land.
 
@Arperum Wow
 
Sound crazy that there are enough good days to get to that ratio.
 
@Arperum Welcome to Britain, we have weather, it is shit.
 
10:46 AM
@fredley Yea, but not that bad it seems, only 1/3 of the summer was too dangerous to swim. I'd expect worse.
Although 1/3 of the summer is pretty bad...
 
@Arperum Yeah, this summer was a good one :D

Now, I've been informed that B...

 
@Lazers Go look at the friggin steam storepage...

@5pike Aside of that: prices are bound to change. flagging for too localized. (he wants to know the cheapest way of buying them al or something.
Blah, that flag doesn't exist anymore.
 
@fredley Don't forget the gloves, they are important
 
@Arperum I might leave my fingerprints all over the crime scene if I didn't gloves
Also the supposed solution to these kind of attacks is useless anyway
(Batman style) 'Hello' *coughcoughcough* 'I'm Mr. Arperum,' *coughcoughcough* 'I've just come out of throat surgery and...'
 
@fredley This, and voice imitators.
 
@Arperum Well the biometric thing will cut through that. You can impersonate someone's voice but decent biometrics will go deeper than that
Although they're going to need to be very robust, telephone lines cut out masses of frequencies
And I'm betting the ones they cut out are the ones you want to be using in your biometrics - higher order frequencies that are hard to fake

Let's assume it all works perfectly. What do you think those fraud dudes will do? Just give up or attack the people who they want to rip off, and make them do the call?

yeah this behaviour is strange though
I'm getting no activation errors

any applications I start in that 60 minutes work fine
attempting to start anything after that 60 minutes results in no behaviour

this week is the week I spam AU with questions
 
@kalina Yay! :P
 
"why did you choose this linux distribution?" -> "reputation"
 
@kalina You want to use Ubuntu for a file server?
 
the actual reason is the download finished first
 
@kalina "Do you ride kangaroos like horses?"
 
12:45 PM
no I want to use gentoo for a file server
 
@kalina "Are koalas really mean?"
 
but I'm currently unreasonably impatient and I just want shit to work so I can go back downstairs and carry on dominating the usage of the huge tv
 
@kalina "Do toilets really flush the other way down there?"
 
@OrigamiRobot I see what you're doing, I'm not finding it funny
 
Ubuntu is annoying on servers/VMs without 3D hardware acceleration, I prefer to use Debian on servers, or Centos if non-open source software should run on it
 
12:46 PM
@kalina Darn, that means I should keep doing it, but I'm all out of questions.

Q: Which one is better? King's Rock or Razor Fang?

MurifoXIn the pokemon games there are these two itens that essencially do the same thing (Apply a % of making the enemy flinch when attacking). I wonder if there are differences in the percentage of flinching equipping the itens would generate. Any ideas?

Q: Pros and Cons of Buying Diablo 3 hard copy vs digital copy

Gary R FerozOn May 15th, once Diablo 3 launches, I could try and get it from a local store, or I could reserve a copy of the game in advance; then bring the physical copy home and install it on my computer. I could instead buy it right from blizzard via digital copy, with the risk that I wouldn't be able to ...

Do I remove the version-differences tag there?
 
@Lazers Reading this makes me cringe.
 
@Arperum remove digital distribution too
 
@Arperum I think version differences tag means patches not this.
 
12:50 PM
@OrigamiRobot Done.
 
@mpower no
 
@mpower I think it means differences vs console/pc games or between a game and it's remake.
 
I love this answer, why make it harder than it is :D

A: Which is larger? $20!$ or $2^{40}$?

GasteYou can simply compute both numbers and compare them: $$ 20! = 2432902008176640000 \\ 2^{40} = 1099511627776 $$ So you can easily see that $2^{40} < 20!$

 
I read that tag's meaning. my mistake.
 
Well, the tag wiki excerpt also specifies "edition differences", which may as well apply for physical vs digital.

It's correct. It's also inelegant, obvious and more importantly not open to generalisation. We learn nothing about how to solve these problems in more generality. — Jp McCarthy 21 hours ago
Yes we do! We learn about Occam's Razor!
 
I don't see the value of a tag in general, it just doesn't seem useful
 
@MadScientist I agree
 
@MadScientist I third that.
 
Do you think set bounty on this question can answer it?

@mpower No
 
12:57 PM
@mpower bounties don't answer questions, people do
 
I know that.I mean does it even have any answer to pay that bounty??
 
@mpower If someone knew the answer, they would have already posted it. You could post a bounty to bait people into researching.
