Q: My Sims 3 keeps crashing.

RizI play my sims 3 on my laptop which runs on Windows 7 and I have all the expansion packs and the stuff packs as well, I also downloaded several sims 3 store items into the game as well (Worlds included). My problem is that my game keeps crashing within several minutes of playtime and I am sick ...

@OrigamiRobot What's the symptom?
I've been having random crashes the past few days. Now it's to the point where My MB only detects the drive 50% of the time
The other 50% I can't boot into windows
Luckily I still have the HDD I used to image it
I shouldn't even be awake right now. I woke up to get a drink and my computer was on the "shit's fucked up" BIOS screen
My last hope is that it's some kind of drivers issue, but that seems unlikely since it's worked fine for the past month
Ah :(
Might be a loose cable? Or maybe a driver update
I did all the physical connection troubleshooting already
Updated my MB BIOS
No new firmware for the SSD

Q: Alternatives to sega everdrive?

Budge that badgerI recently got my old sega mega drive out of the closet, but realized I dont have as many games I remember having.

Good morning, Bridge family.
Good Morning Mister @Yuuki.
Howdy hey
Spelunky HD is pretty great
I love the damsel options

@frank did you see there is a new Kairosoft game?
14:54
So it turns out that Steam Broadcasting doesn't really work over spotty wifi
Who knew?
15:09
Me
So apparently, FFXIV has marriage.
It's a pretty common thing in MMOs, isn't it?
@PrivatePansy I dunno, WoW doesn't have it, right?
15:39
@RedRiderX I don't think any kind of streaming works over spotty Wi-Fi
Intentionally using a bad party in Pokemon is fun. I currently have a Slakoth and a Voltorb in Alpha Sapphire.
@StrixVaria Don't forget the Luvdisc.
@Yuuki I can only go so low.
Don't lie, you want an all magicarp all star team
@Unionhawk Magicarp use Splash!
15:56
@PrivatePansy It's not very effective

Q: Discontinued browser game

AlexI want to know something about a browser game that seems to have been discontinued. I'm not certain that it's been discontinued though. Is it appropriate to ask about the location of the game on this site? I've seen "Looking for game" but I'm not sure that quite covers this situation. I want to ...

Lies, splash is always super effective
@MattGiltaji ... to my heart.
All right, it's breakfast time again.
Ish.
Lunch is in two hours.
I'll wait.
Man... PSN is still down. O_o Sony is bad at this.
16:10
@Fluttershy Thank god I got FFXIV for PC rather than my PS3 then.
That sucks.
Still down after the attack on Christmas? Wow
Guys! Should I get a WD Elements 4TB external HDD for 133$ or Seagate Expansion 5TB external HDD for 155$? OPINIONS PLS
Is the additional 1TB worth the additional $22? If yes, buy the bigger one. Simple.
Or rather, consider what else you could buy with $22, and if any of that is worth more to you than an additional TB of storage
Bwah, that's difficult
I think of things in terms of "What MtG cards could I buy instead?"
16:16
5TB is more TB/$
Most of us think in terms of opportunity cost. @OrigamiRobot thinks in terms of opportunity cards.
@Chippies Don't think in those terms. Think about the margin instead - what utility would you have for an additional TB of storage
right now, I don't have any external HDDs and none of my HDDs are over 1TB
@Chippies Then most likely, you don't need the extra 1 TB.

Q: My wireless Xbox 360 controllers are not connecting to my PC correctly

Mark TwainI have 2 official Xbox 360 wireless controllers. I have the official Microsoft wireless dongle. When I turn on my 2 controllers, their Joystick ID's switch. The first controller I turn on is seen as Joystick 2 in some games and emulators, and the second controller is seen as Joystick 0. I believe...

I haven't even filled up my 2 TB drive and I have a lot of videos and music.
we did get a DSLR camera for christmas (which is the reason we're finally getting an external HDD) and I have been recording some gameplay footage sometimes, but all of that is very space consuming
I guess I'll look up what other differences there are between the two
$133 seems pretty cheap for a 4TB external. Where are you going to buy it from?
@PrivatePansy ncix.ca, boxing day sale
I buy everything pc-related from there
they're in limited quantities at these prices though
the 5TB is thinner and looks more classy, lol
Huh, Amazon has it for as low as USD125 for 4TB
@PrivatePansy 133$ is in CAD
16:23
Ah, that's slightly cheaper

Q: Do gamecube games on the Wii use the Wii's system clock?

SilverfishI have recently got a Wii, partly to play Gamecube games (on disc), and I was just wondering where games that use the system clock get their date and time. Do they use the system clock for the Wii, or is there a separate setting for the Gamecube. So far, I haven't played any games that use the s...

hm, just found a forum thread titled "*** WARNING - AVOID SEAGATE 5TB EXTERNALS ***"
@Chippies I see they're trying to warn you to avoid Seagate 5TB externals.
@Yuuki I think that's what they are trying to say, yes
I guess I'll just go with the 4TB, since anything above 4 is relatively new tech

Wut
@PrivatePansy Hey, building computers is hungry work.
@Yuuki Building computer is amazing work :D
@Chippies Yeah...don't get anything from Seagate. Go WD. They're much more reliable long-term
@RPi_Awesomeness Seagate used to be great though
but yeah, I guess they've gone downhill

Q: Wearing my hat upside-down hides my name in chat

Jeffrey LinNow that we can wear our hats upside down, I decided to put mine on and go into chat. But alas, when I post large amounts of text, my name goes under my picture and therefore my hat hides my name. This injustice needs to be fixed immediately.

@Chippies I'm sure they did, but they aren't any more :P
16:37
People who stand on top of questgivers are the worst.
@Yuuki Go stand on ytop to annoy them back?
Stainless. Steel. Steak plates. Yes. It's really cool
@Unionhawk Why? Did you put them in the freezer?
What?
They're really cool
16:44
Can't believe you didn't get that.
@Wipqozn level of terribleness here, ladies and gentlemen
I'm terrible for making such a horrible pun and @Uni's the worst for not getting the obvious pun.
And proceeding to tell me to get out.
Your face is a horrible pun
16:45
@Unionhawk Your face is just horrible.

Q: How can the broadcaster talk in the chat during a Steam Broadcast?

StrixVariaSteam Broadcasting is a neat feature I've been using with a friend to watch each other play some games remotely. There is a chat room in the broadcast where the person casting can see people's chat messages without even leaving the game window. For other participants, it also says that person is ...

This children's show is presenting unrealistic expectations. They say the only thing you need to do a certain job is the stereotypical hat for that job.
@MBraedley Wait, that's not all I need?
@MBraedley I dunno, it kinda fits. I mean, wearing a fedora automatically turns you into an a--.
16:50
Although the message of the episode is "look, don't touch". I guess that's a good message.
For children?

@PrivatePansy I'm glad to know I'm being used as a measure for excellence.
@PrivatePansy hgahaha, oh zeus
that 's great
@PrivatePansy So instead of a fedora, you'd just get a big black circle tattooed on your butt flanks?
17:03
You're allowed to say butt. It is the bridge, after all
BUTTS BUTTS BUTTS
@Unionhawk But they're ponies. It has to be flanks.
I guess
@Wipqozn Fact: Lauren Faust refers to Cutie Marks as 'Butt Tattoos'
Looks like PSN is going down again, even though it was still only up for some people. This is ridiculous.
@Fluttershy Silly Sony.
17:06
@Wipqozn I just don't get how a multi-million dollar corporation can be taken offline by a couple of neckbeards in their mom's basements.
@Fluttershy It's called "Sony literally doesn't give two s---s about you".
Also, I use the term "couple" loosely there.
@Yuuki Yeah, but neither does Microsoft, and you don't hear about them getting their shit broken every 2 weeks.
@Fluttershy Do...do you need a hug?
@Lazers More close votes needed
17:14
fuck yeah
> marked as duplicate by Studoku, MBraedley, Trent Hawkins, Unionhawk, Wipqozn 8 secs ago
Everyone knows the last vote is the best one
It's true
@Fluttershy The key is that Sony doesn't even give two s---s about themselves.
I can't stop mentioning that Sony sued themselves.
@Yuuki what
@Yuuki that sounds interesting, any more info on that?
17:28
On mobile, so give me a sec.
@Yuuki Who won?
@Yuuki That's hilarious
Basically, Sony US is not best friends with Sony JP.
My favorite part:
>On the first day of his marketing course, Fader teaches a case study where one unit of Sony is acting as a key supplier to a company competing with another unit of Sony.
> Meanwhile, the music side has been experimenting with CD copy protection that pointedly devalues Sony Computer’s products. Celine Dion’s CD, “A New Day Has Come,” released by Sony Music, was encoded with Key2Audio copy protection – which makes it unusable on any computer, even Sony’s own.
BRIDGE
Should I buy Anno 2070?
I'm on the fence since I'm not sure if I'll play it
BRIDGE, DECIDE FOR ME
@Wipqozn You're not going to play it. By @Sterno logic, that means "GET IT NAOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"
17:42
@Yuuki True!
@Sterno pirates games because purchasing a game means he's morally obligated to not play it.
@Wipqozn Yes. :(
@Fluttershy @Yuuki, give @Fluttershy a hug
@Fluttershy <fat chocobo hug>
@Yuuki Best hug.
17:44
I HAVE DECIDED
I'm not going to buy it
I'll be a responsible adult instead
@Fluttershy Fat chocobos are indeed the best.
I think I'm going to do some treadmilling in the afternoon. I ate too much American food this week.
@Wipqozn Instead of following your dreams?
@Yuuki I'm trying to decide if I want a peanut butter sandwich or steak again...
Why not both?
@OrigamiRobot Steak is gross.
you are gross
17:49
Peanut butter steak sandwich sounds great.
you are both gross

Q: WWE 15 PS4 Help

TipI got a new PS4 played both WWE 2k15 and GTA 5 yesterday and this morning im about to play WWE but tis taken 20 minutes to load. I havn't downloaded anything from PSN either so I don't understand why it's taking so long.

Hey, you are talking to the king of gross sandwiches.
And by "gross", I mean "delicious".
I'm tempted to get steak now just to annoy @Wipqozn
@Wipqozn You think all the good foods are gross.
18:04
@MBraedley I know. I'm surprised I have any friends.
I need to put pants on and go to the post office
I'm stuck on step 1
Even my Vegan friend thinks I'm crazy for not liking bacon.
@OrigamiRobot What is this thing called a post office?
@MBraedley I think it's something used in the middle ages to transfer E-Mails
It's the place you go when you don't buy stamps.
18:05
Is that where all the emails go before they get to their recipient?
@OrigamiRobot Don't they close at noon on Saturdays?
@Fluttershy 3 apparently
I checked because I wanted to use that as an excuse
@OrigamiRobot Well buckle your pants and head that way! :o
IF @OrigamiRobot was ever made supreme ruler of everything I can't help but feel the first thing he would do is outlaw pants.
18:10
@OrigamiRobot Yes.
I don't know how to buckle pants
@OrigamiRobot Stop making excuses
Well then stop adding steps!
@OrigamiRobot don't buckle pants, just ducktape them
Now I have to go buy new pants
I don't even know where to get pants with buckles at this hour on a Saturday!
18:19
Oh hey, shovel knight is on sale
Shovel Knight purchased.
I'll likely buy Great Permutator before the sales over as well.
It's cheap enough now, but no point in not waiting in case it goes cheaper
So the what if book is cool and it's $6 on Google play
@Unionhawk this?
I keep trying to tap pictures for alt text then I remember it's a book
2
Yep
To be fair on that point/clarifying that, it is on my phone. It's not the physical book
@Unionhawk I know, but in the contextless land of the starred list you now look like a big silly face.

I am still pantsless.
This is going terribly

Q: Can a single player world be opened to people that aren't on my network?

user96746is there a way to make my single player world open to others? I know that there's LAN, but I'm talking about other people from farther away. For example, if I'm playing in Chicago and I want someone in Nebraska to be able to play my single player world, is there a way that I can make that work?

@KevinvanderVelden No, my plan to go to the post office is going terribly because of how awesome not wearing pants is

Yes, the police station is right across the street.

@Yuuki @StrixVaria and @murgatroid99 both work there though.
So they should get to work on that.
@Wipqozn It's funnier if we cc @badp who no longer works there.
@Yuuki I disagree! See, by pinging @StrixVaria and @murgatroid99, we can then turn around and blame down the road if this feature isn't implemented.
I say again
Wholly Chao
20:21
What's going on?
@murgatroid99 it's the ping game! You've been selected to be pinged
@KevinvanderVelden I noticed. I somehow got 3 desktop notifications for 2 chat pings

21:05
@RedRiderX you set the broadcast to allow to be watched by anyone
it won't stream until someone's actually watching
Right but is it public before then?
iirc, if you set to allow anyone, it will be shown on the community page
so anyone can start watching from there
Well I know you can find it by going to my profile but will it show up in the Broacasts tab?
@Chippies Oh okay
And you can broadcast non-Steam games, right?
You can broadcast the desktop
21:07
Ah.
@Yuuki yes, but they won't be advertised on any of the community hubs
Well I would also like to be able to test the stream myself, which was mainly why I asked.
so, you'd need to be friends or have a link to it
Be able to see it working on different settings
I wonder if steam can stream desktop on laptops

Does anyone play Factorio on a Mac or for any other reason know why the demo doesn't work on Yosemite?
@GraceNote At Progenitor
Currently in the preparation phase. Getting items and all that, spending skill points, all that fun stuf.
In fact, I should get a third farmer.
@spugsley You are now a farmer
One with a giant butchers knife and a basket. It's horrifying.
My 3 man farmer team is @ElfSlice, @OrigamiRobot, and @spugsley.
23:11
@Wipqozn You're now a turtle
@Powerlord Didn't you say that like a week or two ago?
Fucking conference halls
@Powerlord Oh snap
Last talk of the day
Hall of 3k people, crowded as fuck
Staff are keeping more people from entering
I am in but if I can't find a seat I have to get out
I am also kinda tired and not entirely sure I want to watch it through truth to be told
There's a seat free and an individual I'll call Asshole to protect the guilty is holding it for a friend
Staff tell me I have to get seated and that the friend of Asshole is locked out
@ElfSlice Just an fyi, you make the party boatloads of money.
23:20
Asshole goes, 'okay but as soon as my friend comes'
What should I have done now?
Oh I know this one! Kicked him in the face.
Because I figuratively told Asshole to get stuffed, stormed out of the hall, realised the cloak room stuff misplaced my jacket, found my jacket, went back to the hostel on my own, after narrowly missing the S-bahn and waiting 15 mins for the next
@TimStone Kicked him in the face sounds like a good idea.
I suppose @badp's solution is good too though...
I figured that others on the stairs were more interested than me
And were more willing to administer the kick to the teeth
Still my evening is now ruined :(
This happened because I waited for somebody to buy his drink before entering the hall
You got to come back to our smiling faces, the night is still salvageable!

Why doesn't the latest Factorio release work on Yosemite?
Your smiling assembly of triangles is as unreadable as ever
