@OrigamiRobot Robot confirmed for no tastebuds
 
@KevinvanderVelden Those look like crepes, not pancakes.
 
@Sterno Or tortillas
 
I just came back from duty, and I'm still alive!
 
@No.7892142 thank you
 
@OrigamiRobot They definitely look eggy to me.
 
1:01 PM
Egg tortillas.
 
@Sterno they're not crepes, crepes are thinner actually
 
@KevinvanderVelden We call those Palatschinken

Q: How does crepe batter differ from pancake batter?

AttilaNYCWhat are the different ingredients in crepe mix versus pancake mix? I'd like to try my hand at making crepes from scratch...

 
And yes the typically are made with eggs (though recipes without exist)
 
Given that StackExchange is the authority on all things, based on that question's answers, are you talking about crepes, or pancakes?
 
1:02 PM
Pannekoeken
 
Germans call this "Pfannkuchen" as well:
 
Palatschinke is a thin crêpe-like variety of pancake common in Central and Eastern Europe. Names of the dish include Palatschinke (pl. Palatschinken) (Austrian), palačinka/палачинка (Bosnian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Serbian, Slovene, Macedonian), palacinka (Slovak), palacsinta (Hungarian) and palaçinka (Albanian) == Versions == Central European Palatschinke (palačeke) are thin pancakes similar to the French crêpe. The main difference between the French and Slavic version of the dish is that the mixture for palatschinken can be used straight away unlike that of crepes which is suggested to...
 
@No.7892142 That looks like a dinner roll with powdered sugar on top
 
A Berliner Pfannkuchen (Berliner for short) is a traditional North German pastry similar to a doughnut with no central hole, made from sweet yeast dough fried in fat or oil, with a marmalade or jam filling and usually icing, powdered sugar or conventional sugar on top. They are sometimes made with chocolate, champagne, custard, mocha, or advocaat filling, or with no filling at all. == Preparation == The yeast dough contains a good deal of eggs, milk and butter. The classical Pfannkuchen made in Berlin consists of two halves filled, stuck together and deep-fried in lard, whereby the distinctive...
 
Disappointed Google didn't have any images of pancakes that look like Rebecca Black
 
1:03 PM
@OrigamiRobot Apparently the English term is jelly donut.
 
o/
 
Filling doughnuts with jelly or cream is monstrous.
 
Jelly is gross
 
@Sterno Germans are monsters, news at 11
 
user15026
Pannekoeken are different from crepes and from American pancakes
 
1:04 PM
Chocolate cake donuts are the best donuts.
Aso, I'm spelling it donut because reasons.
 
@OrigamiRobot Less letters = better
amirite?
 
@Sterno pannekoeken which are thicker crepes which can have stuff in them
 
Pannekoeken is a great word.
 
@KevinvanderVelden That's not pancakes. It sounds delicious, but it's not pancakes.
My words for things are the only right words.
 
@OrigamiRobot You are allowed to be wrong on the internet
@Sterno surprisingly not friday!
 
@Sterno I'm mostly disappointed that this is what it said on the tin.
 
I'm not allowed to eat pancakes by myself.
 
I'm usually pretty obvious about my Friday links
 
How much mod abuse did I miss in my one week of being stuck in camp?
 
1:07 PM
Oh! I could maybe make pannekoeken tomorrow. That sounds like a good idea.
 
@PrivatePansy a lot of it
 
@Arperum But you're having it tonight!
 
@OrigamiRobot why?
 
Oh hey, Sim City 2000. Now there's a great game.
 
@Rapitor cause then all the pancakes are gone and he feels sick
 
1:08 PM
@OrigamiRobot No time to make them tonight. Going to visit a friend.
 
14 mins ago, by Kevin van der Velden
Right, I know what I'm having for dinner this evening
 
@OrigamiRobot ...
 
@Rapitor Because I need someone else there to stop me.
Otherwise I cannot escape my pancake trance.
 
that doesn't sound like a problem.
 
I don't think you fully understand.
 
1:11 PM
I'm itching to make a paincakes pun.

Q: Dying Light - Awakening: Can't grab the ledge

MahmoodvcsWhile following Rahim's tips, where the instruction says:"Hit Jump and Hold to grab the ledge", I can't reach the ledge. I just fall down. What I am doing wrong. I'm a terrible gamer. please help.

 
1:25 PM
"I'm a terrible gamer. please help. "
I like that.
 
> table of view does not exist
WAT!?
At least tell me which table I'm trying to use that doesn't exist.
 
No. Why would I do that?
 
I really wish intellisense would work in Pro*C files. Stupid typos.
 
Latest (year old but now finally in paperback) dresden files is on the way :o
 
@KevinvanderVelden I'm halfway through it! :D
 
1:33 PM
@OrigamiRobot It's that I'm making a game this weekend, otherwise I don't think it would survive that long
 
I am confused.
 
There's a gamejam I'm participating in
 
user15026
Now I want pancakes. They aren't on the hospital menu. You guys are monsters.
 
Otherwise I would read that book this weekend
 
@AshleyNunn And I am stuck at work :(
 
1:35 PM
@AshleyNunn aah =[
 
Hey, my phone is updating to 4.4.4
I wonder if there's anything new I care about
 
Hmm, maybe I should unsubscribe from the social housing waiting list, given that, you know, I own a house and all now
 
@AshleyNunn No, I think it's the hospital that are the monsters. Who doesn't serve pancakes for breakfast?
 
@OrigamiRobot You are not allowed to eat pancakes without supervision!
 
(Despite the fact that it's currently Lent, so some people legitimately wouldn't have pancakes this time of year).
 
1:47 PM
I already said that!
 
@OrigamiRobot what are you updating from?
 
4.4.2
 
@OrigamiRobot Okay. Just making sure you remembered! :P
 
@MBraedley Why would a hospital change it's menu for that?
 
yeah nothing really changed
 
1:48 PM
@KevinvanderVelden I wouldn't think it would, but stranger things have happened.
 
user15026
I had tasty breakfast and am reading Discworld. I might be getting to go home today even.

That's does not sound bad at all
 
@AshleyNunn One step closer to full robot!
 
Waffles are better than Pancakes anyway
3
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz those are fighting words
 
1:54 PM
@Rapitor Droppin' truth bombs all up in this bridge.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz you can't really have waffles for dinner and sound not insane
 
@KevinvanderVelden I think that's true for pancakes as well.
 
@MBraedley not over here! :D
 
@KevinvanderVelden Completely and factually incorrect
 
Besides, waffles are an acceptable afternoon treat.
 
1:55 PM
(Though, again, talking about pannekoeken, cause 'murican pancakes aren't a thing here)
 
waffles are an anytime food. as is pancakes
 
@KevinvanderVelden I don't know what that is.
 
On the subject of Discworld: I don't get why "Eric" gets so much stick.

You can't eat ice cream out of a pancake.
 
1:56 PM
Waffles are meh.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz you can from pannenkoeken!
 
@KevinvanderVelden so halfway between pancakes and crepes
 
You can bake bacon in pannenkoeken
 
@KevinvanderVelden Nowhere near as deliciously portable.
 
@OrigamiRobot This guy.
 
1:56 PM
@KevinvanderVelden Can do this with a waffle too. In fact, I am going to go do this in the hotel waffle iron right now.
 
That looks good
I wanna go home and bake pancakes now >.>
Also @LessPop_MoreFizz just made me want to go out and buy a waffle iron
 
you can cram whatever you want into a waffle iron and make "waffles"
 
user15026
Those look so great
 
@Rapitor And this is the beauty thereof.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I've only had waffles a few times in my life, and all of those were frozen waffles.
I should try actual waffles sometime.
 
1:59 PM
The people who use the "syrup pockets" argument for waffles obviously don't use enough syrup.
 
I eat waffles dry.
 
user15026
As soon as I can get to it I am going to make pancakes, and it is all your fault
 
@KevinvanderVelden You don't bake pancakes. Baking implies an oven.
 
@AshleyNunn @spugsley @Ktash You should see the new weapon we just got for Monster Hunter.
 
@Wipqozn Cora's just down the road.
 
2:03 PM
@AshleyNunn Yay Discworld! Which book are you reading?
 
 
@MBraedley uuh right.
I don't know why I call everything baking
OH No wait in this case I do
 
user15026
@saintwacko I Shall Wear Midnight.
 
@AshleyNunn Ooh, I love that series
 
The dutch verb is "pannenkoeken bakken"
 
2:04 PM
That's the newest one in it, isn't it?
 
@KevinvanderVelden The Dutch are wild people.
 
I wonder what I should do for food today.
 
user15026
@SaintWacko yep, I think so. Not sure what I will read next, might go back to the City Watch ones.
 
user15026
@origami robot pancakes! Kraft dinner! Maybe not to together though
 
@AshleyNunn I'm not allowed to have pancakes without supervision.
 
2:05 PM
Steak!
 
@AshleyNunn Have you read all of the Discworld books?
 
user15026
@SaintWacko nope, but I have read a few and want to read more
 
@AshleyNunn They're my favorite books :D
 
user15026
@OrigamiRobot mashed potatoes!
 
You'll love them
 
2:08 PM
@MBraedley I have a gift card ro there, actully.
Been meaning to go there
 
@AshleyNunn Well, what's your favorite so far?
 
@AshleyNunn mashed potatoes stuck in a waffle iron!
 
I like the steak suggestion
 
@OrigamiRobot Steak is always a good idea
 
@KevinvanderVelden I should make that one day.
 
2:10 PM
The City Watch series might be my favorite
Or the Industrial Revolution
Small Gods is great too
And so are the other series :p
Pratchett is just such a clever writer
 
Bacon Waffle is mine.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz NO
Bacon Waffle is MINE
 
I am eating it.
It is half eaten.
 
Keep us updated.
 
@No.7892142 it is delicious.
 
2:16 PM
Every leg of my commute was delayed today (windshield wipers were frozen to car, so I missed my usual train; backup train was 10 minutes late; subway I take isn't even running today) but I suffered through it because I had to interview someone so I couldn't work from home. Get to work, read emails, interview canceled.
 
3/4ths consumed.
 
@StrixVaria =[
 
Oh, also, @AshleyNunn, have you seen this?
 
@StrixVaria Oh yea? Well, I had to... um... yea I got nothin.
 
@OrigamiRobot you can't have the delicious bacon waffles!
 
2:18 PM
I don't want bacon waffles.
But I do want bacon...
bacon and steak
 
Bacon waffle is all gone.
 
@StrixVaria Think positive: Now you know to lift up your windshield wipers on freezing nights!
 
Bacon wrapped chicken in the oven is also a good thing
 
Farewell bacon waffle. You live on, inside of me.
 
2:19 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz RIP Bacon waffle
 
I am not a cooking type person
 
@No.7892142 That requires putting on pants to go outside.
 
@StrixVaria y-you can do it when you get home from work
 
Ugh, pants
@No.7892142 Not if he worked from home that day.
 
Which I did!
 
@StrixVaria I'm sorry for your troubles, because I had the best commute this morning that I've had in a few weeks. Traffic was (mostly) awesome.

Ain't nobody knows how to kill a joke like The Bridge.
 
@MBraedley You stole all his luck!
 
@OrigamiRobot Ain't nobody knows how to nest quotes like @OrigamiRobot
 
2 days ago, by Yuuki
yesterday, by Yuuki
People joking about the Bridge running jokes into the ground is a joke that's been run into the ground.
 
2:25 PM
Well, I seem to be in a better state of mind than yesterday.
 
@MBraedley Thanks for the heads up

@RonanForman Oh are we playing the quote game? I love this game!
 
Overall, this is going to be a good move for me. The only sticking point is that I want to have my accomplishments over the last year acknowledged. So long as that happens, I'm good.
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yes, I'm a luck thief. My code seems to work exactly as intended (after a handful of minor fixes), I don't have to spend 12 hour days at sea in a week and a half, everything's looking up.
 
You just love the fact that searches show quotes too, don't you
 
2:28 PM
Nov 21 '14 at 19:09, by Unionhawk
Yes. One of the best.
I need a sockpuppet named OrigamiQuotebot
On ELU
 
@Frank Well, I wish you the best with that ir.
 
@Wipqozn I've hammered on a few doors. We'll see what shakes loose from that.
 
@Frank Why not just knock?
Using a hammer seems unnecessarily hostile.
 
@Wipqozn Not if you're using the one from the Brachy DLC quest.
 
Apr 24 '13 at 12:50, by kalina
sets fire to @OrigamiRobot
 
2:33 PM
@StrixVaria garage ftw
 
Oct 26 '14 at 5:15, by Unionhawk
ah, memories
 
@Yuuki @Arperum @5pike @Frank @YourMom @KevinvanderVelden @AnyoneIForgot We should do some of the DLC QUESTS TOMORROW ALSO CAPS LOCK FOR SOM RESON
 
@Wipqozn I should probably finish the tutorial missions shouldn't I?
 
@Sterno Even if I used my garage for a car it wouldn't be the car I use to commute.
 
@KevinvanderVelden How far are you?

@Wipqozn I mixed a potion!
 
@KevinvanderVelden Leaping before looking is the best way to learn.
 
Dec 30 '14 at 19:58, by Origami Robot
Dammit @Unionhawk
 
@KevinvanderVelden I got you mixed up with @Rapitor.
 
@StrixVaria 2 car garage ftw!
 
2:34 PM
Also, @Sterno! I knew I forgot someone.
 
@Wipqozn I've got the game! I just don't really play on the ds that often
 
I'm pretty sure I'm bored of Monster Hunter now
 
Aug 2 '14 at 2:28, by Unionhawk
This thing is getting bad
 
@Wipqozn wut
 
@Rapitor Your avatars r sort of kind similiar sort of kind of
@Sterno You suck
 
2:35 PM
Whenever I'm playing it I mostly wish I was playing some other game
 
@Sterno You used to be cool
 
It's good I realized that after buying a N3DS
 
Now you're just some old dude
 
user15026
@saintwacko I really loved the tifany aching ones that I am reading now
 
@Sterno Yup!
 
2:36 PM
@Wipqozn Did he?
 
That's okay. Now I have two 3DSes, and I can get my daughter to play games with me
 
@Sterno i thought i was getting burnt out so i didnt play at all yesterday... but all i wanted to do was play.
 
Getting burnt out on monster hunter is very difficult to do
It's so much fun
Also addicting
It's like crack
 
Overall it's not bad, but I'm not big on the grind, and I'm REALLY not big on all the tiny little animations and things that slow you down that just add unnecessary buffer time to the game (like cooking meals, laying on the bed to save, etc)
 
@Wipqozn I get that about sports betting.
 
2:38 PM
@Sterno It's meant to be more deliberate.
 
@Sterno That's fair
 
So that actions take time, so you don't do things on a whim.
 
Plus, unskippable cutscenes of cats
@Frank I'm okay with things like using my whetstone in the field taking time
 
Yay, I just realized that even though we signed all the pieces of our vendor's applet with a new signing certificate, no one started the paperwork to move it to UAT or production.
 
Less excited by watching my guy eat his meal every time before I leave. or watching the slow animation of him laying on bed and getting back up when saving
 
2:39 PM
The old certificate expires in little more than a week.
 
@Sterno You can skip most of that cutscene.
 
@Frank He knows
 
As for gathering, I understand time is needed so I can't gather mid-combat, but I certainly don't enjoy the 60 seconds of standing in place picking flowers.
 
The bed thing back at base, yeah, that takes some time.
 
@Sterno That eventually gets better, since the shop eventually starts selling more and you can multiply items via Wycoon.
You'll still need to do some gathering for ores, but won't need to go mining for things like honey or blue mushrooms anymore.
 
2:40 PM
@Wipqozn Although, really, if you're managing the Wycoon well, you won't ever need to buy those items, anyways.
 
It's not a big deal, it just adds up to an annoyance. Like every time I go to get a quest, I have to listen to 3 clicks worth of dialog from the Guildmarm first, telling me things she already told me 7 times
 
If it's like MH3, crouching makes you gather "faster"
 
I like fighting monsters. I feel like that's about 40% of my gameplay time though
 
@Sterno You can save after every quest so you can just exit then.
 
Bloodborne is coming out this month. As is Pillars of Enterity
 
2:42 PM
Unless you feel like upgrading stuff without a hunt after that.
 
I'm pretty sure those will deal the combo finish blow to MH4 for me
 
@Sterno Bloodborne should be fun
 
Then you'll have to use a bed, I guess.
@Sterno You can press B to skip to the last dialogue.
 
On the plus side, Palicos are 17% less annoying than Kupos
 
@Sterno Be glad you didn't have the Chachas.
 
2:45 PM
I'm sad I beat ToME. Those of you who had been playing seemed to immediately stop after that. Jerks.
 
@Unionhawk @TheAce @TimStone @Rapitor @etc 4x C2 MCs are absolute beasts against subsystems.
 
@OrigamiRobot i bet
 
@OrigamiRobot that dounds deadly against anything.
 
@Sterno I did lose all interest in it when you stopped talking about it
In fact I forgot it existed
 
2x Turreted C2 beams and 2x C2 MCs also seems good though.
 
2:48 PM
did you determine "actual" prices for the new ships?
 
With a C4 phallus Cannon
 
user15026
Woo went for a walk with the physiotherapist and even climbed stairs so as long as my CT later today is nice and clear and stuff I will get to go home!

@AshleyNunn YAY
 
@Rapitor The current theory is 90m for FDL and 20m for Vulture, but that's based on armor costs.
And the devs mentioned that the FDL had special armor
 
@AshleyNunn :D
 
2:51 PM
@AshleyNunn that's pretty rad
 
Military Armor cost is close to 1:1 with ship cost for most big ships, but not small ones.
 
@OrigamiRobot that is a lot more than i was expecting...
especially for vulture
 
@Rapitor Seems fine for the Vulture
I'm hoping the FDL just has really expensive armor and isn't expensive itself.
 
i thought the vulture would be close to cobra in terms of costs. it has basically nothing for internals, a shit fuel tank, small component sizes, and just 2 hardpoints.
 
2 Large hardpoints
 
2:57 PM
it's still only 2.
 
It's a fighter, it doesn't need internals.
There's no way they give you 2 Large hardpionts for less than 10m
