@GraceNote It asked me where to save the file. Even if the file downloads, you can delete it safely.
 
user15026
@badp But as long as I get a download, I am safe?
 
@badp Mine auto-downloads to a directory on occasion, but just wanted to make sure that "It autodownloading" is in the "You're fine" bucket.
 
@badp I guess I'm fine? I got a tiny .dcr file.
 
@AshleyNunn Yes.
 
@Pvt.Grichmann I get the same

Perfect.

@Pvt.Grichmann same, but no prompt

@BenBrocka Skeleton piracy is a big problem.
 
I don't know about you, but I would definitely download a skeleton.
 
My ISP throttles skeletons
 
6:05 PM
BUT HOW DO YOU THROTTLE SOMETHING WHICH HAS NO WINDPIPE?
 
Found in the relevant GIS results:
 
@Pvt.Grichmann huehue
@BenBrocka wtf
 
@badp My mind's been blown
 
Race the Sun for $1
 
but...what about Airmech?
 
6:11 PM
@GnomeSlice they have assorted phrases relating to any any random furniture item you might have in your inventory. One of them is "skeleton". I had an elephant request my skeleton once in City Folk
 
@Mana ?
Airmech is F2P
And it's not the same kind of game as any of those.
@BenBrocka That's just a little weird.
 
It's one of those biology class anatomy skeletons
 
I figured.
It's still funny
 
@GnomeSlice it was a bad and misinformed riff on how much you used to talk about Airmech
 
@Mana I talked about it a bit
 
6:28 PM
@TimStone My mind puts up an automatic wattage barrier when I try to parse that sentence
 
I never knew @StrixVaria hated puns so much
 
I hate bad puns.
 
Bad puns are good puns
Good puns are good puns
Mediocre puns are bad puns
 
Some bad puns are good because they're bad.
That one was even past that, and was just extra bad.
 
If you're doing the setup for your own pun, you're doing it wrong.
 
6:32 PM
fuck I must hurry
oh whatever. For crimes against bad humour
 
Woo, Strix gets mod!
 
Justice is served.
 
Must inaugurate the occasion by abusing the position.
 
QUICK FOOLS GIVE AND REMOVE ITALICS TO STRIX WHILE YOU STILL CAN
 
6:33 PM
I'm not a mod on chat yet.
 
well
WHILE IT STILL MATTERS
 
I AM NOT AN OWNER :(
 
that's why I said "give" first
 
I am powerless.
 
6:34 PM
There ya go.
 
Me next?

Q: A Terrible Mod Announcement

ManaThe time has come for me to step down as a moderator of this site. I love this place and the community we've built up around it, but unfortunately my other responsibilities leave me with too little time to spend here these days. I could reminisce about all the wonderful times we've had together,...

 
@SepiaLazers :(
 
:(
16
 
@SepiaLazers -1 dislike
 
6:35 PM
=[
 
like if you cry everyteim
 
@Mana Does this mean you're going to stop coming here?
 
pretty much BYE
 
@Strix If you reassign your profile in chat that should expe-speed-iate your chat naming.
 
@Mana I'm sorry I had to replace you.
 
6:36 PM
@SepiaLazers -1 for lies.
 
@GraceNote It worked.
 
@StrixVaria I suppose you haven't refreshed the page yet?
 
Kind of.
Oh there it is.
 
#caching
 
6:37 PM
 
drumroll
 
Seriously, I dunno. I'd like to say for the benefit of my career that yeah I'd stop coming here, but truthfully I'll probably pop in semi-often since I'm bored and lonely.
 
@Mana :(
 
There is no mod abuse that isn't mandatory here.
 
This news makes me so sad that I'm going drown myself in grilled cheese.
 
6:38 PM
If @Wipqozn becomes a mod, I'll have to become a mod somewhere so he isn't ahead of me.
 
Abuse is mandatory, suffering is optional
 
Not the mod abuse I was expecting, but I'll take it. <_<
 
Granted, I was going to do that anyways, but it's neither here nor there.
 
Crap, that sounds like a cover quote for 50 shades of gray
 
@OrigamiRobot What if I become a mod?
 
6:39 PM
@OrigamiRobot He's already ahead of you. You're not a citizen of THE GLORIOUS DEMOCRATIC OLIGARCHY OF RIGHTEOUS ARQADOM
 
Nah, I don't care if you're ahead of me.
 
 
@Yuki there's no frozen.se yet
 
@badp do you know how to get rid of Shockwave crap in chrome? The uninstaller from their website did nothing, there are no traces of it in windows programs and files
 
As unlikely as that would be.
 
6:39 PM
@Wipqozn is my only rival. Oh, and @Fluttershy.
 
@Frank It's brilliant, I agree.
 
@Chippies I'm not talking flash, just Shockwave.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm not your rival. We're teammates. I'm the Brock to your Ash against @Wipqozn's Gary Oak.
 
@Chippies You didn't get an automatic download at the bottom bar?
 
And they have a rivalry for which one is my biggest rival.
 
6:40 PM
@Fluttershy Wait, so @OrigamiRobot is forever 12 years old?
 
@Fluttershy We are rivals.
 
@StrixVaria is a mod now? my word.
 
Also @MAna decided he hates us? I knew it!
 
@Yuki Yes. And he eventually moves on with his life as a 12-year old, abandoning both Misty and myself to tears heard 'round the world.
 
6:41 PM
@Yuki no, I had it installed for some retarded game that Gnome forced me to play that didn't even work
 
(Is that actually what happened? I just know Ash doesn't travel with them anymore. <_<)
 
suckers I hated you all along
2
 
@Mana :o
 
and now with the shackles of moderatorship removed I can finally sit here all day and let you know the true extent of my hatred
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
 
6:42 PM
Now that I'm a mod I'm going to probably stop hanging out here.
 
if I click run, it offers me an update
 
@StrixVaria Nooooooo, we love you
 
@Fluttershy Something like that.
 
@Mana You are still blue in chat. For now
SO YOUR EVIL PLANS OF SECRET HATRED AND DOOM HAVE BEEN FOILED BY THE CACHING DEMONS
 
@badp actually the plans seem to be of open hatred and doom
 
6:44 PM
@KevinvanderVelden they've been under cover until he was a moderator
LITTLE DID HE KNOW HE STILL IS
 
any suggestions for final act as mod? ban myself? ban everyone?
 
 
@badp evil secret plans of open hatred and doom?
 
pin some post from two years ago?
 
I don't think we can ban ourselves. Also SE doesn't appreciate that since it sends emails and stuff
well, you can be banned but it doesn't ban you very well
 
6:45 PM
@Mana put the room in timeout for a couple weeks
I'm sure we won't notice
 
oh brilliant
 
yknow, just see how many nines fit in there
 
@Mana Remove me as room owner? Kick me from the room? Edit my message to say I'm a poop?
 
FOR SCIENCE
 
no, been there done that
 
6:46 PM
Add @GnomeSlice as owner
 
@Mana I always wanted to know what happens if a mod deletes the community user
 
@MadScientist I think it's been SCIENCE'd that negative ID users can't be deleted
 
@Mana Buy me a sandwich press?
 
@GnomeSlice have fun~
 
6:47 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOO
 
I can't combo-break long blue discussions now.
 
What can owners even do?
Oh, nevermind.
 
@GnomeSlice Nothing there is no such thing as an owner.
You've been lied to.
 
:( but...the potential...
 
6:47 PM
@Wipqozn is an hero.
Here let me give you owner
 
wait
 
I saw a world in flames...and just for a second...I wanted to embrace...that world...
 
wait that's the opposite of giving you owner
 
You can't own the room, you can only license the use of it.
it's in the ToS
 
6:48 PM
it's not funny
 
You can't own land, man.
 
You can't like, own property, man
 
@badp Silly badp, always making mistakes!
 
@Mana Also, I'm disappointed you didn't wait for two days and slip in a certain link in your announcement.
 
6:48 PM
@StackExchange There you go
 
@Wipqozn wait, so that was a mistake?
 
@badp No, the previous one was. You go this one right.
 
I go right and then what?
 
@Yuki man, I don't even know what you're talking about :(
 
@badp left
 
6:49 PM
but it sounds like it's going to break my heart
 
okay, good plan: change of routes
 
@Yuki banned
 
Oh come on. I'm not going to sink that low.
 
USER WAS BANNED FOR THAT POST
 
I REGRET (EVERY/NO)THING!
 
6:50 PM
My sense of humor has always been extremely refined and experimental. People years from now will look back on my posts as the beginning of the post-modern humorist age #yoloswag2014
 
@Mana It would have made you part of thecool crow.d
 
Someone should undelete all the ITGs so @StrixVaria can delete them again.

Q: N64 DMA problem

tmkfirst time poster here. I'm trying to make an ASM hack for the N64 that involves DMA. I just recently learned about DMA and so I'm just messing around and trying to get the hang of it. Unfortunately some very basic code that involves 2 almost-consecutive DMAs doesn't work, and crashes the emulat...

 
I CLOSED A THING
BY MYSELF
 
6:52 PM
AH DON'T DO THAT
 
OMFG MOD ABUSE CENSORSHIP GENEVA CONTRAVENTION THE SYSTEM IS MANDATORY
 
Oh great, A MOD FOR BARELY 15 MINUTES AND YOU'RE ALREADY GOING MAD WITH POWER
 
post a comment beforehand pls ;( think of the children
 
@Mana DON'T TELL HIM WHAT TO DO!
 
6:53 PM
@Mana The close reason is fairly obvious :(
 
@OrigamiRobot Yeah, why should @jmfsg have all the fun?
@Mana Hey now, show @StrixVaria some respect. He's your superior now!
ALL HAIL @STRIXVARIA

@Mana is still blueish
 
@Krazer hey, at least it doesn't have a thumb sucking health system
 
haha...just as planned...
you've activated my trap card...Strix...
actually I'm not stepping down as mod.
 
6:54 PM
Also, Wipqozn x Wipqozn is best fanfic.
 
IA @STRIXVARIA
 
:o
 
This was planned from the very beginning to make you screw up.
To demonstrate what a terrible mod you'd truly be.
 
Do I get infinite stars as a mod?
If not, this is a sham.
 
uhm, let's see
I remember there used to be a way
 
6:56 PM
@Mana Does this mean that he failed and I'm going to be the mod now instead? Because I promise to abuse my powers if it does.
 
god stop starring that thing I can't unpin my test

Oh yeah, you could only star your own post.
not infinitely star it.

Q: League Play System

ItzJayI don't kno whats up with league play because right now im in platinum rank 1 two times and also won 10 games back to back and still never got into master division but I saw my friend get into masters but im way better then him

 
THE CLOCK IS TICKING MANA THE CACHING DEMONS ARE ONTO YOUR MAGICKS
WHAT WILL IT BE
IF YOU HAVE DESTRUCTION AND DOOM TO UNLEASH YOU ONLY HAVE SO MUCH TIME
 
I, for one, am disappointed @mana hasn't done anything abusive with last last few precious moments of power.
 
IT'S HAPPENING, @MANA. IT'S HAPPENING
WIPQOZN IS GOING TO BE WRONG IN A FEW MINUTES

@badp I said that already. It's a cool game.

PEOPLE DON'T TEND TO APPRECIATE HAPPENINGS AS THEY HAPPEN. MY GIFS TRULY GIVE HAPPENINGS A MOMENT OF SOLEMN URGENCY
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah, but now @badp is saying it. His name is blue, so it means it's an official Stack Exchange endorsement.
Mods are employees of STack Exchange, right?
 
@badp flagged for epilepsy
 
@Wipqozn remind me, are you allowed to be this wrong?
 
@badp Yes.
 
is it the gif? I suppose it's the gif.
There
room topic changed to The Bridge: General Arqade chat room, wherein we salute Mana's reign of terror and stares and welcome Strixvaria's year of mandatory. [-butts] [-context] [-fun] [lazers] [lifehack] [murder] [wrong]
 
7:13 PM
@badp Mandatory butts?
 
@badp why less butts?
 
<thatsthejoke>It's a Year of Luigi reference. Just like the Year of Luigi, StrixVaria's year of mandatory may or may not be much longer than 365 days.</thatsthejoke>

Q: How can you upgrade multiple units at the same time?

XenoxWhen upgrading units to a more modern equivalent, is it possible to do a mass upgrade in one go instead of finding and upgrading each individual unit?

@StrixVaria Mod abuse, go!
 
Oh hey, ~*~sTaR tReK iNtO dArKnEsS~*~ is on Netflix now.
 
It's going to be so hard not to edit everything on chat now.
 
@StrixVaria Why edit when you can delete them all?
 
7:22 PM
@StrixVaria plsyes
 
@StrixVaria I'll edit your face!
 
Can't edit image text!
 
CC @spugsley Make sure you check the post history too.
The first image was better.
 
MOD ABUSE

Q: Streaming non-steam games

BatophobiaSo Steam can now stream in-home. Does this only work with games tied to the Steam account, or can I play games added via the "Add non-Steam game" feature? Example: If I have Star Wars: The Old Republic on my gaming rig added as a non-steam game, can I play that on a separate machine using the i...

 
@GnomeSlice I thought it was you. :P
 
@GnomeSlice ψ(`∇´)ψ
 
sigh If @StrixVaria is inheriting @Mana's modship, I guess this means I have to start starring everything @StrixVaria says.

Now I don't have a mod I can complain to when I get banned.

@Frank Fuuuuuuuuu-
Accidentally hit C in the middle of my factories... While wielding a rocket launcher loaded with explosive rockets
 
@OrigamiRobot I didn't know mondo made baman piderman
But I've never watched it.
 
And then someone will call it an Adventure Time ripoff.
 
@GnomeSlice y u no watch?

@SaintWacko Haven't used a rocket launcher for that, but I've done it with guns.

Q: Is there a Game Boy (Color) emulator capable of emulating a link cable?

Andreas HartmannI would like to start working with http://www.littlesounddj.com/lsd/ on a computer, but game boy hardware (and its emulated counterpart) only support 4 channels of audio max. However: LSDJ supports linking and synchronizing two (and even more: http://littlesounddj.wikia.com/wiki/Syncing_more_than...

 
There's my factory
 
@GnomeSlice theres no ep1?
 
@SaintWacko What does it do?
 
Makes widgets.
 
7:45 PM
@StrixVaria Defends itself, builds just about whatever I want it to, and does a lot of research
Most of that is building science packs
 
I don't think this is my kind of game.
 
It's very complex
 
@SaintWacko That's a crapton of accumulators
 
In thinking about why I wouldn't like that, I remembered there's this new Incredible Machine-style game that was terrible last time I played it a year ago. I wonder if it's progressed.
@GnomeSlice Do you remember what that game was called?

Q: Execute fill command relative to player

DatEpicCoderGuyWhoProgramsHow can I execute the fill command relative to the player? If you are wondering why I am asking this, and for more information, reference my earlier question here: How to make a block disappear after a certain period of time Look to the bottom section for the info you want. Also, I don't want it ...

 
Oh god.
I would never leave the house.
 
We had that happen here sometime last year, I think.

Q: can this laptop run any games?

pekkaI'm about to buy a new laptop in my opinion the hp envy 17-j006ed looks pretty good. Jet again, i'm not an expert at specs it has a -intel i7 processor -8GB Ram -750 GB harddisk -nVidia GeForce740m Now my question Could this pc run any games without lagg like - guild wars 2 (WvW) - planet side ...

 
@TimStone I'm not sure how to feel that they already had a pre-existing honeybee swarm removal plan for this.
 
8:10 PM
There's not much else to do in Delaware except prepare for contingencies.
 
> Shavack said, "this is the first time we've actually activated the plan."
That's some degree of comfort at least
 
@Lazers @StrixVaria Go use your mod powers!
 
@Arperum Won't even be a mod vote at this point.
 
That is the worst close reason :(
I wonder if a question gets 4 close votes for a thing, and then I cast a vote for a different thing, which it'll show.
 
@StrixVaria It's also completely valid. We don't allow, "Can I/it run it?" questions.
@StrixVaria You're a mod now. You'll override ours.
 
8:14 PM
@Frank Well it's off topic for sure, but I think you could have said a little more about why in the close reason.
 
@StrixVaria Tried that. Doesn't seem to help.
 
@Frank For our own records.
 
@Frank I was like "What is he talking about?" and then I refreshed chat.
 
I picked shopping rec, but your comment persists so both are visible.
 
@Fluttershy That's a big discrepancy.
 
8:15 PM
@StrixVaria I assume you already noticed that The Universum got it's goal?
 
@Arperum Yes. I am excite.
Now I just have to wait until the end of the year for them to release the alpha :P
 
@StrixVaria Same, I'm still thinking of upgrading to the $20 tier.
 
@Arperum That would get you beta access, right?
 
@StrixVaria Meh. Comment edited.
 
That's not for a while even after the alpha.
 
8:16 PM
Alpha access kills interest in games.
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't think I want to actually play the alpha, though.
 
@StrixVaria I know, but I am not planning on jumping into the alpha anyway. I'm currently even just waiting for war for the overlord to come out of beta before I play it.
 
I want to hold off for beta so I don't hate the game before it's even a real game yet.
 
@StrixVaria This.
 
That said, THE STOMPING LAND EARLY ACCESS FRIDAY GET HYPE
@Fluttershy @SaintWacko @Yuki
 
8:17 PM
@OrigamiRobot gets hype
 
@OrigamiRobot SUCH HYPE
 
@OrigamiRobot What is?
 
[hype intensifies]
 
Is there any way to activate markup in the middle of a word?
 
@SaintWacko Don't think so.
 
8:18 PM
te*st*
Boooo
Fine
 
@OrigamiRobot I think he needs more detail than that.
 
hyyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyyy YYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE
 
@OrigamiRobot Survival with dinosaurs?
 
You should go into as much detail as you'd expect from someone else!
 
8:19 PM
@Fluttershy It's the best I can do right now.
 
I do not like survival games.
 
You are dead to me T_T
 
Guitar Hero is kind of a survival game. You have to gather notes, but if you miss them they turn feral and damage you.
If you don't gather enough notes to offset the feral ones, you lose.

Q: What should I do when it says Successfully installed client profile Forge for version "yourFORGEVERSION" into launcher and grabbed "0" libraries".?

Super Hexagon is a hardcore survival game. One mistake and you're murdered.

Q: How to use corrupted spells?

Jader DiasEvery corrupted area yields a corrupted spell. But I can't use them. Why? Should I de-corrupted them? How so? It doesn't make any sense.

Q: Is there a way to see players' MMR after I have exited from that particular match?

apoorv020After a ranked match ends, I can see players' MMR on the summary sheet, but I often tend to close it without taking a look. Afterwards, how can I look at the players' MMR?

 
@Lazers NO
 
@Frank I'm attempting to get to the point where I can permanently decommission my steam turbines. I'm consuming around 37MW, though, so that might be difficult
 
9:41 PM
@Yuki Why can't it be worse? Maybe they're not sensationalists.
 
@OrigamiRobot Wait, news article not being sensationalist? Then, by definition, it's not a news article.
 
Are you fucking kidding me?
I bought 9 cards.
9
 
 
They came in a box with packing peanuts
 
@Yuki no ragrats!
 
9:45 PM
OMG they're wrapped in tissue paper
 
 
THIS IS SO WASTEFUL
 
@OrigamiRobot you gotta protect those 8 cards somehow...
 
This could have easily been in an envelope
 
@SaintWacko I believe they're adding in other forms of power generation as time goes on.
Because, really, steam power makes no sense when you have floaty robots.
Also, I have pulled overtime every day this week.
 
9:54 PM
Do you get time and a half or just the normal rate?
 
user15026
@Frank So you've mentioned. Repeatedly.
 
@OrigamiRobot Time and a half.
 
@AshleyNunn Sorry. Getting annoying, is it?
 
I don't get time and a half, but I at least get my normal rate for overtime.
 
9:58 PM
@OrigamiRobot I get vacation in lieu, some of which I used on Friday.
