3:00 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz That's disgusting and doesn't mean what you think it means.
 
@Unionhawk unless it does...
 
@Unionhawk GOSH DANG YOU!
 
@Unionhawk uropean
 
@AshleyNunn Well, buy it :)
 
user15026
@RPi_Awesomeness I did buy some yes
 
3:02 AM
@AshleyNunn Well, good for you!
 
Y'know, five years ago, I would've balked at even giving out what country I live in.
Now, I don't really care.
Also, just destroyed a Viper in an Adder.
 
none of us are as idiot as all of us.
IDIOTIC! NOT IDIOT, IDIOTIC!
 
No
 
I just had a thought...
Y'all might want to take cover, thoughts can get violent
 
Another interdiction where there was no one there |:
 
user15026
3:09 AM
@Ktash Can we....not joke about that?
 
@AshleyNunn Sure. Sorry. :/
 
@Ktash Bad Ktash. Making bad jokes. Naughty
 
user15026
....
 
I have no clue what he said...soooo
Just me...talking when I really ought not to...
 
Heh, you are far too young for my standard follow up response to that
 
3:15 AM
I'll go be an ostrich in the corner for a bit.
@Ktash Well, that's good :)
 
@Yuuki @OrigamiRobot That moment when a higher value target jumps away :(
Feels bad man
Also, this system you have here is nice
Lots of criminals from the system next door
 
I now have my new avatar:
Presenting...
 
user15026
um........
 
What am I doing with my life...
@AshleyNunn ik.
 
user15026
I am not sure that is entirely appropriate
 
3:23 AM
...true...some people might be offended
You can scrub it if you want.
 
user15026
In general, joking about genocide and such is ungood.
 
user15026
And this walks a very fine line.
 
Yeah...
 
To be fair, calling someone "Literally Hitler" is pretty common in here.
 
user15026
@Fluttershy This is something I also have issues with tbh
 
3:24 AM
@AshleyNunn sry if I offended you :(
Will spec ops kittens make this better?

Q: How to pass the seahorses in candy box 2

Mazel TovI've been going in the ocean for a while, but now I've gotten to these seahorses. They shoot the magic, and I can dodge those, but I can never actually reach the seahorses themselves to kill them. How do I pass these creatures?

 
I've got to stop photoshopping stuff together...
 
Ninja kitten beats spec ops kitten.

Awwwww....
Moar ninja kittens...
Not quite as ninja-y
Anyways. I'm going to bed.
 
@TimStone I am about to dock at George Lucas Station.
 
3:28 AM
That's probably my best option right now before I end up getting permi-banned for posting some photoshop image I made...
@Yuuki Good for you!
 
Where is this and why am I not there
 
Bacon knights are not as cute as ninja kittens
 
@Unionhawk Leesti.
It's an Alliance system.
 
@StrixVaria I had a weird experience where my first character steamrolled the first dungeon and was then doing great for quite a while, whereas my next characters all kept dying immediately.
 
@Yuuki It's okay to deploy hardpoints there, the system authorities will always say the other guy shot first.
 
3:31 AM
@Yuuki shot first! It's canon!
Or cannon, even
 
@TimStone Funnily enough, soon as I jumped out of supercruise, the station was firing on someone.
 
geddit geddit? Cannon?
 
gedout
 
@StrixVaria For example, I just said then, then died at level 1 when an orc archer 3-shotted me and I couldn't do anything about it because my charge ability was on cooldown
 
3:44 AM
this is so good
dat bass
 
@Unionhawk There's a mining site right by Deb Colony. It's the best
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm having tons of luck at the nav beacon
I hate fighting cobras
And then having them jump away :(
 
Nav beacon > Station is too far
Cobras are great to fight
 
They're so fast!
 
I want that game guuuuuuuuuh
 
3:56 AM
Is the viper faster than the eagle?
 
The easiest to fight has to be haulers
 
@Unionhawk They usually have shit for bounties
 
True
At least the cobras are usually in the 15k range
But haulers die so easy
 
Lets bounty hunt together!
 
4:09 AM
\o/
 
user15026
@RedRiderX I acquired Boxtrolls, and am planning to watch it at some point this week because you made it sound awesome. :)
 
user15026
But for now, sleeping.
 
@Unionhawk where is you at?
 
@OrigamiRobot I just docked at Deb Colony to turn in 75k
I'ma relaunch, I'm getting a bit of lag
I'm also in mumble if you care to join me
 
4:25 AM
So I just crashlanded on a dropship and emptied my weapons on them until they blew up.
New favorite tactic found.
 
 
1 hour later…
5:29 AM
getting interdicted Oh, it's a player. Wonder who that could be. All the way out here.
 
Next time I see you wanted...
 
Oh god house of cards S 3 trailer
Frank Underwood is a bad, bad, man.

@PrivatePansy ...what
 
NOTE TO SELF: don't try to ram a ship that's significantly larger than you are (you idiot)
cc @OrigamiRobot @Yuuki
(I rammed an anaconda and immediately exploded)
Total insurance claims: Like 19k now
Well, that's total insurance payments, anyway
(I am also the proud owner of a viper)
 
6:57 AM
Curse you daily maintenance, I HAD JUST ENGAGED ANOTHER ANACONDA FOR 60k

@PrivatePansy It's because farticles can carry diseases.
THE MORE YOU KNOW :::===----
 
8:43 AM
@badp I saw this and was afraid you were going on another of your quora digest digest sprees
 
@badp oh good
 
@KevinvanderVelden unfortunately all questions there are disappointingly average
 
@badp what a "shame"
 
The closest one is "What are some mind-blowing facts about Wall Street?"
With an honorable mention to "What do cows think about?"
 
8:49 AM
Aaah quora, I'm glad you exist to show us how much better stack exchange is
 
PSYCHE! This had been a Quora Digest Digest ALL ALONG.
 
Excepting the lifehacks bit, that one still needs some fire
 
Your favourite moment of the "week" is brought to you by Social Justice Typographers, defending the rights of Comic Sans and Papyrus since 1859.
They're a truly legendary bunch.
That's their excuse for using Papyrus there anyway.
I hope you enjoyed not knowing that your favourite moment of the "week" was that one, because it'll only get worse from here!
 
Can I just go back to bed? I think that's the best plan right now
 
@KevinvanderVelden It still wouldn't be as good as the Quora Digest Papyrus!Digest.
 
8:53 AM
@KevinvanderVelden I want my bed too. Arriving home at 1:30AM after a Sabaton show is no good.
 
@Arperum well it is plenty good, but having to work the day after isn't
 
@KevinvanderVelden True.
 
@Arperum Monday after Sabato is wrong man. Check your calendar.
I think you have a Dimanche in the Middle attack going on there.
 
@KevinvanderVelden You did miss something, Dutchies being Dutchies decided at some point to start shouting for "broek af en op je hoofd". It happened. And then the pants went flying into the public.
 
@Arperum ... WHY DUTCHIES WHY?
STOP BEING DUMB
 
9:05 AM
@KevinvanderVelden AND STOP THROWING "beer". IT SMELLED LIKE TERRIBLY MADE PANCAKEDOUGH. AND HAVING IT THROW ALL OVER YOUR BACK IS NO FUN EITHER.

Q: What cat does Barney refer to during your first meeting with Kleiner in Half life 2?

SharainDuring a play trough of Half life 2, I noticed Barney mentions something about a cat he "still has nightmares about". Alyx then starts to ask a few times, without answer, what cat he refers to. It is mentioned as Barney and Kleiner debate how safe the teleportation device has become from the last...

Q: How to do emote tricks on a Tumbler?

DavidYellSo with the EV30 Tumbler you can obviously do tricks by holding R2 and using the left stick, but in the promotional movie you can see Guardians doing other tricks such as switch, superman and no-hands. How are these performed? Using the D-pad seems to only cause my Guardian to wave in that dire...

 
10:49 AM
@KevinvanderVelden Probably because it was pants-on-head funny stupid?
 
@Sterno Something to look forward to then.
 
11:38 AM
@AshleyNunn oh neat, be sure to let me know what you thought of it.

Q: Colored item names in Minecraft?

ArceusMaster0493I came across a map and when I was playing I found some coloured and bolded item names. I thought it isn't possible as at most you can only use the custom name tag to rename things! Is there a way to colour and bold item names in vanilla Minecraft? External programs are OK.

Q: South Park: The Stick of Truth: Making my Rumble move the mouse

eshansingh1I have a Logitech Rumble Gamepad F510 which I'm pretty used to, however, The Stick of Truth only comes with support for the Xbox 360 controller. Since the game requires a mouse to interact and talk, does anyone know any current way of setting mouse bindings on a Windows PC? The official Logitech ...

 
2) If we reached the point where we needed mods or the SE team to decide the scope for us, then the site has already failed to show it can work under the SE model, so it should be shut down. Since one of the key aspects of SE is that it's community driven, then having mods decide something as fundamental and basic as scope is pretty clear evidence we've failed on the community driven side of things. — Wipqozn 57 secs ago
I hope lifehacks is shut down soon so I can escape the curse of the meta.
 
@Wipqozn THAT IS NOT A TURTLE. YOU HERETIC.
Somehow I confused @Wipqozn for @StrixVaria, even though their gravatars don't even look remotely the same..
 
Morning =)
long time no see =D
 
@Michel Hi there!
 
May 26 '14 at 10:50, by Wipqozn
@badp I think we all knew that I was a pathological liar.
@Michel Oh hey, you still exist.
 
12:25 PM
@Wipqozn Always =D
Working like a b****
xD
 
@Wipqozn Gah. This is going to be terrible. I really don't know why, but your current gravatar is really mindmapped to @StrixVaria.
 
Your pain and misery caused by my avatar fuels me.
I think I will play through Dark Souls again soon. Probably. Maybe.
I might actually do the DS2 DLC.
I was going to wait. yeah I will
I bet once it all comes out there will be a bundle for it
I think I will do DS1
Maybe do something silly, like use the thieves key and then go straight to the giant spider lady whose name I can't spell
Kill her (or die miserably forever), and use the hordes of souls to level up to LE MAXIMUM LEVEL
 
Looks like I'd be able to get up to level 19 right away, provide I started as a pyromancer and beat spider lady at level 1.
 
12:46 PM
@Arperum To my knowledge I've never used an avatar that looks remotely like that.
 
We all know @Arperum is terrible at avatars
 
1:07 PM
@StrixVaria I've hit the "just one more chapter" point with elantris. The book gets a lot better once you hit the second half.
 
@Wipqozn Yeah it picks up a lot.
 
I'm shortly after the point where Serene discovers what the king was up to certain nights of the week.
 
Jeah elantris
 
@StrixVaria I can't remember one either, but that specific shape is mapped to you anyway.
 
If anything it looks like @OrigamiRobot.
Kind of mirrored, though.
 
1:13 PM
That's me!
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh man is it really you!
I'm so excited. I've been waiting to meet you for so long.
You're that famous Origami folding robot!
 
This is me and @Wipqozn in my mind.
 
And who is the dog?
 
@KevinvanderVelden That's multiple stages worse then I thought it was.
 
@Arperum jeah it's surprisingly bad
 
1:17 PM
@KevinvanderVelden It's secret.
@OrigamiRobot I approve of this mental image.
 
@Wipqozn I'm gonna go with both of you being the dog.
Also, uuhm, drools at the pretty picture:
 
@StrixVaria The fact that I am pretty tired and nearly falling asleep in the office might help with me confusing that avatar.
 
@Wipqozn I believe we were promised a turtle gravatar in exchange for stars.

I hope someone mod-abuses you and sets you to receive emails for every single Lifehacks post
 
May 26 '14 at 10:50, by Wipqozn
@badp I think we all knew that I was a pathological liar.
 
@Sterno You got it. I never said it would be a permanent change. Also, that message was mod abused. Also, I'm a pathological liar.
 
1:21 PM
This is always appropriate when discussing anything @Wipqozn does
 
@Sterno Hi, you have been signed up for lifehacks facts!
3
 
@Sterno I have a script that can do this
 
Well, I was going to deowner @Wipqozn in retaliation for his treachery, but apparently I've been deownered when I wasn't looking.
TREACHERY!
 
All is right in the world.
 
1:22 PM
@Sterno shoot, I meant to readd you when I got my ownership back.
I'd like to point out I'm being punished for being mod abused.
THIS IS THE WORST TYPE OF INJUSTICE
 
WORST INJUSTICE IS BEST INJUSTICE
 
Don't you mean best type of injustice?
 
28 secs ago, by Sterno
WORST INJUSTICE IS BEST INJUSTICE
 
@Wipqozn yes, he successfully inb4-ed me
 
A synonym (also metonym and poecilonym) is a word with the same or similar meaning of another word. Words that are synonyms are said to be synonymous, and the state of being a synonym is called synonymy. The word comes from Ancient Greek syn (σύν) ("with") and onoma (ὄνομα) ("name"). An example of synonyms are the words begin and commence. Likewise, if we talk about a long time or an extended time, long and extended become synonyms. In the figurative sense, two words are often said to be synonymous if they have the same connotation: ...a widespread impression that ... Hollywood was synonymous...
 
1:24 PM
It happens, unless you're @Arperum, then it's always me inb4-ing him
 
@KevinvanderVelden man, those minecraft servers are getting pretty crazy.
 
@badp new york from a helicopter up way too high
Also I now have a new goal for rebuilding my procedural city gen thing
 
I'm home sick today. Should I:
1. Play ToME.
2. Sleep.
3. Watch Stargate.
4. Turn on Stargate but fall asleep watching it.
 
You can substitute in any TV Show for #4
 
1:25 PM
@Sterno Play ToME.
I did the arena and the first floor of another dungeon and still haven't seen a challenge.
 
@Sterno Do you have a chair to sleep in? If so, do that. It's the proper old guy thing to do.
 
I found two separate snake dens in one floor but chokepoints > snakes.
 
@StrixVaria Some crazy lumberjack murdered my best guy
 
@Sterno #4, but be woken up by your daughter.
 
@StrixVaria What level monsters are you seeing? I was seeing level 10 monsters with my level 6 guy
 
1:26 PM
My father falls asleep in his chair watching TV all the time. If you change the channel, he "wakes up" and mumbles "I was watching that".
 
@OrigamiRobot She's at daycare, but still possible if they call me
 
@Sterno Hm. I don't know how to tell monster levels. Do you do that with "L"?
 
@Arperum Which is where I originally got to the page from
 
My guy is level 10 or 11.
 
1:26 PM
I thought she was sick and that's why you were home.
 
I'm really dumb
 
@StrixVaria You just hover over them and it gives their level, name, stats, etc
 
@fredley quick! Say you got it from the gamedev room =p
 
@Sterno Oh right the mouse. I've been using the keyboard for everything but menus because I can't figure out how to menu without the keyboard.
 
@OrigamiRobot She was sick. Technically is I guess, but Tamiflu has made her normal and non-contagious so long as she continues to take it.
I am now sick too. Tamiflu will eventually make me normal and non-contagious
 
1:27 PM
@Sterno Oh you finally convinced her to take it?
 
@StrixVaria If by "convinced" you mean "my wife holds her down while I squirt it in her mouth", yeah.
 
@Sterno I'd settle for non-contagious if I were you, more realistic than normal
 
@Sterno That's one method of convincing.
 
@StrixVaria What race/class are you? I've only tried Dwarven Berserker so far.
I'm also assuming you're at least on Normal difficulty
 
@Sterno Human (the subclass that starts with C) Bulwark.
I left all difficulty settings on the default, so it's normal/adventurer. I haven't died yet though.
I think adventurer/roguelike only affects how many "lives" you have, so that wouldn't have made a difference yet.
 
1:29 PM
My first guy found really great gear which is probably why he did so much better than later ones
 
I have a shield and use mostly shield skills.
Maybe having a shield makes it easier to not die.
 
I think you're right. Adventurer is just extra lives
I did read that the dwarf has the hardest time getting to the other races starter dungeons
So maybe I'm getting in too deep after my starter dungeon
 
I didn't pick dwarf because they had an experience penalty or something.
 
@Sterno IRONMAN MODE ONLY MODE
 
I went for the blank state starting race where you get no bonuses but also no penalties.
 
1:31 PM
@Wipqozn Well that's what I'm doing, naturally
 
I should install TOME on my work PC
@Sterno Yeah, I know you would, because you're super cool like me.
 
Someone just joined my stream and the entire game went down to like 1/16th of the window size
 
@Sterno Playing the steam version or the free one?
 
Steam
 
What does the paid version offer you don't get in the free version?
 
1:32 PM
@Sterno That was me, and it's also not loading the stream now either.
 
People breaking the game by joining your stream
 
@StrixVaria How rude
 
I will close that and hopefully @Sterno's window will go back to normal.
 
Trying to kill the process. It is resistant.
Wow. It will not die.
 
@Sterno Would you like me not to join your stream then?
 
1:35 PM
I set it to full screen. Maybe it will be better now
 
I've noticed problems on your Steam before, Mister Sterno.
I'm glad to know it wasn't just me.
 
@Sterno Let's science this then.
 
Sterno has a private Steam?
 
@StrixVaria Nope. that killed it again
 
@Sterno :(
 
1:36 PM
DAMMIT BRAIN. It's the ex-turtle, not strix. STOP BEING THIS STUPID.
 
Guess I won't watch you play ToME.
 
Stuid.
 
I wonder if we can file bug reports to Valve about broadcasting.
 
He's clearly an important person. I've never heard anybody else having a private Steam other than GabeN himself.
 
1:38 PM
@badp It was Stuïd. not Stuid.
¨ is right next to P on my keyboard
 
in my opnion... the 4k monitor was the money worth O.O
 
@StrixVaria For example, when I finish the starter dungeon it tells me to go to the Old Forest south-east of town. Except all that's southeast of town is OCEAN
 
@Sterno Old forest is where I am now.
I don't know if the worldmap is randomly generated or static.
 
I actually just found it and it's due west of town. LYING LIARS WHO LIE
 
@Arperum oh jeah, belgian keyboards shudders
 
1:39 PM
It seems pretty static to me. More or less
 
Then it's definitely not static.
Because old forest was due south of town for me.
The world map seems pretty safe so far. That makes me extra nervous while I'm on the world map.
 
Okay, I clearly need to turn off streaming, @OrigamiRobot you jerk
 
Ooh, you guys are playing ToME?
 
What?
 
Oh. I guess you missed the conversation where every time @StrixVaria joins it breaks the game
 
1:41 PM
Oh, oops :(
 
@StrixVaria The only danger on the world map is roving adventurers. Early in the game, if you see a group of adventurers with a red border, avoid them
 
Drops my screen down to like 1/16th my monitor
 
@Sterno Haha
 
full size window. Miniature viewable area
 
ToME is awesome, I should go watch @Sterno play!
 
1:42 PM
I did some dungeon with about a billion rats second. Supposedly that's not the second easiest dungeon though.
 
@SaintWacko that's a good idea, I think it even works while at work, let me science it with @Sterno playing ToME
 
@StrixVaria The second and third easiest dungeons are down south
 
I did Ruins of Kor'Pul second.
 
You'll see an area with a town and two dungeons, and you kinda have to weave through a forest to get to them
@StrixVaria Did you succeed?
That boss is tough
 
@SaintWacko Yes.
 
1:44 PM
o/
 
The boss was invisible to start, so I retreated and healed.
 
@StrixVaria Grats!
 
Then he came around the corner and I kept hitting him with my shield. Forgot what the skill is called.
Seems like a really strong skill, though.
It throws them off balance and can stun them.
 
I've beaten the first continent on one character
Did you guys purchase it?
Or are you playing for free?
 
I'm sure once I die, my next 10 characters will all die within the first 3 minutes of play.
I bought it.
 
1:45 PM
I had an escort quest in the forest. I was resting and the guy decided to run into some poison cloud and die. Classy
 
@Sterno Yeah, you want to make sure that when you rest, you do it in a place that blocks their progress
 
I had an escort quest where the guy ran into the middle of a snake den while I retreated to a choke point.
 
Otherwise they will definitely just run past you and die
 
@Sterno Next time don't forget to lock the escortee in some chest before resting.
 
Sorry, but I'm not committing suicide for you.
 
1:46 PM
@SaintWacko Well, clearly he didn't deserve to live.
 
Escorts are very stupid, but they give great rewards
Stat points and skills
 
@SaintWacko I succeeded on one (by accident) and got 2 bonus strength permanently.
I rested and she ran ahead and found the portal.
 
@StrixVaria Seriously though. I'm level 5 in the Old Forest and fighting a level 15 monster
 
@Sterno :(
I'm level 10 in the Old Forest. You may be underleveled.
 
@Sterno That doesn't sound healthy.
 
1:47 PM
I KILLED HIM DEAD
 
Each dungeon has a static difficulty I think, so maybe a different dungeon would be a better choice.
 
Oh. That guy was so close to his recall portal too
Well, most of the guys so far were levels 6-8
 
@Sterno I read this as esport and I was very confused.
@PrivatePansy A fate worse than death.
