umm... I'm planning on making a Minecraft roleplay of my favorite TV show (Steven Universe) and I can't host a server and I can't pay for realms, so I found a really cool Steven Universe map to use, and I don't know how to get more than 1 player on a Minecraft map. Thanks! ;) Please help I'm a ...

StrixVaria

I played the tutorial of Tropico 5. I failed it.

I'm not sure if I'll bother with that game past that.

Frank

I like Stellaris, but, and I think this might get me shot, I don't find it very complex.

The ship damage model is very simplistic.

Ships in general, actually, are very simple.

GodEmperorDune

@Frank civ 6 sounds like it will have a lot more depth

Frank

@GodEmperorDune Yeah, but I've had my fill of Civ.

I wanted a shiny new 4X.

Which Stellaris is, and delivers on in spades.

But...it's kinda simple.

Q: How do you get re-elected in the tutorial?

I followed every instruction the Tutorial told me, and even picked the option to sway the vote in my favor using less than honorable means, and still lost. I was kicked out of the tutorial without completing it. This seems like...a poor tutorial, if you can literally fail when following every in...

12:39 AM

Hmm...

two bugs

@StrixVaria Huh, I only played 4 but it wasn't super opaque. Maybe they skimped on the tutorial figuring they were getting mostly returning players?

StrixVaria

@twobugs Well it's based directly on your approval rating.

Mine was like 35% and my opponent's was 65% at the time of the vote.

So I lost.

I have no idea how to get the approval rating to go up, though.

two bugs

I guess I'd need to see the level but approval rating is generally making people happy. So providing basic services, jobs, etc.

Dragonrage

@StrixVaria yell "Ryū ga waga teki wo kurau!"

two bugs

I'm thinking they might have glazed over that, though

StrixVaria

12:40 AM

The tutorial mentioned that in one spot, by building Guard Towers, your approval rating with revolutionaries would go up, and it did. And then at the time of the election the revolutionaries didn't exist anymore because I was in a different age.

@twobugs I kept building like service buildings and stuff it didn't tell me to, but that didn't do anything.

GodEmperorDune

@StrixVaria kill your opponent

StrixVaria

Oh well, it was free on PS+.

Dragonrage

@GodEmperorDune yea they cant get elected if they are dead

Unionhawk

I don't know if I should defend my transcript in my email, or let it come up over the phone

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk let it come up

they may just want proof that you graduated

and not care about the grades themselves

Unionhawk

12:44 AM

Yeah, possibly

two bugs

I've never been asked to explain my transcript

user15026

I know some places I have applied to in the past wanted transcript stuff just to have visual proof that I was actually done school

two bugs

All my grades are good though, heh

Wipqozn

@Sterno Just fought my first boss. That was intense.

user15026

And my grades were...well let's just say I got a four year general non-honours degree and leave it at that shall we

GodEmperorDune

12:47 AM

@AshleyNunn was that the one with the creative diploma paper?

user15026

@GodEmperorDune no, that's referring to my actual one

Private Pansy

@StrixVaria IIRC, from previous Tropico games the approval is a composite of all of the faction approval ratings

user20683

<-- took 9 years

user20683

Had barely over 3.0 in the majors

user20683

the general gpa...not so much

Private Pansy

12:48 AM

So you have to curry favors from all of them (or at least the ones with the most power) by completing missions that entail things like enacting ordinance, building specific buildings etc.

user15026

My degree conferred from the University of Waterloo, officially, is "Bachelor of Arts, Four Year General English Language and Literature" (they had to write it in a smaller font than usual, which makes me giggle some)

GodEmperorDune

yeah my gpa sucked

user15026

I have no idea what my GPA was, we use 100 point scale

Dragonrage

my GPA in high school was much higher in high school than college, but my high school GPA was impossible to get in college

user15026

@GodEmperorDune The creative diploma paper is my Social Service Worker Diploma from the career college near the country bar.

GodEmperorDune

12:50 AM

@Dragonrage they still do the extra point for advanced classes?

Dragonrage

@GodEmperorDune yea

Private Pansy

Also, in previous games the election can be overruled (since in Tropico the rule of law is only a guideline)

Dragonrage

so i ended with a 4.7 GPA in high school

two bugs

1:08 AM

You never have more than a 4.0 GPA

That's literally how it works

Unionhawk

A lot of high schools run a 5 point scale for AP and honors classes

two bugs

The way I've always heard GPA described is a 4.0 scale and AP/Honors are there for your transcript, not to give you A++++++++++

Unionhawk

It's used for weighted class ranks typically

Email sent. We'll see what happens

I'm sincerely hoping this is the big one

GodEmperorDune

@twobugs its different in California

Tim Stone

Fun story. I did freshman year in Hong Kong where the expectations were higher (and conflicted with my laziness), so when I moved back to the US they didn't consider me for top of class. Enough people bothered me about it that I asked where I ranked and they found out I actually was in the top 10%, and had to add an extra chair at the end of the front row at graduation

Which was hilarious

GodEmperorDune

1:21 AM

they put the top 20 in our yearbook

user15026

Wait, you guys get ranked?

GodEmperorDune

i was like 26th or 28th or something, so i drew myself in

:D

user15026

I wouldn't even know where I fell

GodEmperorDune

yeah i was a much better student in high school

college i was mega lazy and nowhere near top of the class

"Bs and Cs earn degrees"

user15026

I was just generally a bad student. I am smart as heck in some ways but I am also horribly unmotivated

user15026

1:22 AM

@GodEmperorDune Me! This was me!

user15026

(My average was 72, 75 is honours. I just didn't care enough to do teh things to bump me to that.)

GodEmperorDune

my wife graduated ultra some loud or w/e it is

Tim Stone

lol

user15026

We also don't do that thing (at least my school didn't)

user15026

there was no some louds

GodEmperorDune

1:24 AM

@AshleyNunn i thought it was latin for honors and extra honors

Tim Stone

I graduated summa cum laude from college (and the first honors program graduate, hooray!), but my program has also since been cancelled so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

user15026

@GodEmperorDune Entirely possible but we don't name it

KutuluMike

my high school did cum laude and summa cum laude

StrixVaria

@GodEmperorDune The top 20 of my graduating class in high school was over 60% of the class.

KutuluMike

they were a very pretentious high school

user15026

1:25 AM

I'm just like shrug because whatever I have the degree now it's mine they can't take it back so hahahahaha

GodEmperorDune

@StrixVaria we had a big class, maybe 600?

yay overcrowding

user15026

(Because seriously the whole "I actually got into university" thing is super funny and involves me being stubborn and petty and also a computer error or two)

Tim Stone

I also have the world's most obnoxiously large diploma for some reason

My theory is that it's useful for the pharmacy/med students so people can see where they went at a distance

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone hehehe

@AshleyNunn computer error in your favor, aka the cybermind bending the university to your will?

user15026

@GodEmperorDune Entirely possible....

Tim Stone

1:30 AM

No joke, obnoxiously large

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn "Wow, we never heard of this @AshleyNunn but she has perfect scores in ALL THE CLASSES, even the ones we don't offer anymore..."

user15026

TL;DR: UW rejected me, I was doing night school at the time so I sent my grades in ANYWAY as a petty rebellion to make someone open the envelope and waste time, grades got processed even though I was rejected and then I got an offer of acceptance and accepted it because you can't have it taken away once you accept it and then once they realized the things it was tooooo laaaaate.

Tim Stone

That is an excellent story

GodEmperorDune

Tim Stone

No, that's just silly

Fluttershy

There, if he doesn't ever come back, we know he was returned to his own realm.

GodEmperorDune

it would've been funny if @timStone's real name was TomRock or something

Tim Stone

@AshleyNunn The place I applied to first was MIT and they have interviews and the guy I interviewed with was like "You'll do great!" and so I was like "Guess that means I don't really have to shop around /cocky"

Fluttershy

HE SURVIVED!

Tim Stone

1:35 AM

tl;dr I am the worst, it was @Wipqozn's fault, and that's how it all went down

This isn't even my final form

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone yeah that's how my interview with MIT went

user15026

I did get into a different school as well with less dramatic story but I didn't go there because me and my then-wife didn't want to move.

GodEmperorDune

they asked "if you had unlimited money, what would you do?" "I'd go into politics because you can make things happen with that kind of money"

Tim Stone

@GodEmperorDune My biggest regret is not getting the oddly-shaped acceptance letter box

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone the MIT and caltech rejection letters were fun though

user15026

1:37 AM

@GodEmperorDune Excellent response

GodEmperorDune

i think one of them had a suicide hotline or something on it

user15026

Getting into American universities always seems to be so tricky, with like interviews and junk

user15026

I don't think we really do that? Or maybe I just never knew anyone that went to the right schools for it

GodEmperorDune

"it's not the end of the world because you didn't get in"

@AshleyNunn really top schools do interviews

or if they want to give you a scholarship

Tim Stone

MIT was the only school that asked for one, in my case. I applied to Cornell and Carnegie Mellon too, but CM is especially hard to get into for CS if you don't apply for early admission

GodEmperorDune

1:39 AM

i only regret not applying to UC berkley to see if i would've gotten in or not

i was pretty sure i wasn't getting into MIT

Tim Stone

They have an online graduate course in data science I've been tempted to try and get into but I'm so spent lately I don't know if I can handle it

(UC Berkley, that is)

GodEmperorDune

then i get to USC and my advanced physics 101 class "so we're going to follow the MIT syllabus, let me know if we're moving too slowly"

@TimStone yeah i knew a few people who started in berkley EECS before switching. it was intense.

(i got a pity C in that physics class, right before i GTFO of that major)

Tim Stone

I almost double-majored in physics but I would have had to stay an extra-not-extra year and lazy

I forget a lot of the math now and it makes me sad :(

user15026

itunes, my computer is still my computer why do we have to do this authorization dance

user15026

(does this mean ADE is also not going to think my computer is my computer because that one might take more annoying steps to rectify)

GodEmperorDune

1:45 AM

@AshleyNunn probably some registry key that got wiped out when you reinstalled windows

user15026

Oh, that makes sense

user15026

It was just confusing because iTunes was like 'no we don't remember you watching DS9' but I guess that was before the great computer fixing of yesterday

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn i thought you watched DS9 through netflix?

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I did until Netflix got mean and said NO AMERICAN NETFLIX FOR YOU

I'm pretty sure I was admitted to OU solely to help pad their "we have so many National Merit Scholars this semester" because my actual grades were pretty bad.

They mention it in the school paper a lot, it's in a lot of press releases, we have a lot of flags on the campus grounds referencing it too.

The flags would read:

> Tier 1 Faculty
> Tier 1 Staff
> Tier 1 Students

It was hilarious.

GodEmperorDune

Yuuki

The Bridge is a Tier 1 chatroom. We have Tier 1 mods, Tier 1 room owners, and Tier 1 users.

I do like how "Tier 1" has crossed the line from "oh, that's a thing we did" to "this is getting really annoying" to "you know, it's actually kinda funny".

Antivirus programs are ripe with the same kinds of flaws found in all other software

So their utility is a balancing act of what they actually detect vs. the increased privileged attack surface they introduce

GodEmperorDune

then cut each third into cubes

Private Pansy

Oh, we don't remove the core. We just spit it out when we eat it

Usually we only eat half a pineapple at a time, so we slice it in half, slice off the top, then hold it from the top and slice off the sides, then finally chop it into eighths from the top

@TimStone Yiiikes

Tim Stone

2:51 AM

@Yuuki I doubt it, usually the obligations with this kind of stuff fall on the person performing the activity

Yuuki

I'm not sure how they'd enforce the "if either your annual income or your net worth is less than $100,000, then during any 12-month period, you can invest up to the greater of either $2,000 or 5 percent of the lesser of your annual income or net worth" clause.

What happens if someone invests more than that, if Kickstarter isn't going to take your income information?

Tim Stone

There are tax implications, so presumably they'd check then/you'd be committing fraud if you misreported

Also the company offering the equity has to make filings, I think?

I dunno how it works in all circumstances

Yuuki

Maybe crowdfunding sites will just completely ignore it.

Also fun line item from the SEC release is that you have a one-year mandatory hold on selling crowdfunded shares

@Dragonrage I mean theoretically one would be in hte kitchen and one in the laundry room and ne'er the twain shall meet but you know that's not going to happen in practicality

Some mods affect gameplay, mechanics and balance, whereas some are only aesthetic. How can I tell if a mod disables achievements? Will activating a mod that disables achievements permanently disable achievements for that save, even if it's removed later?

Q: Dark Souls 2 - NG+ - Does it overwrite old save?

I'm at the point where I can begin a new journey in Dark Souls 2, but I have some things I'd also like to clear up in this existing run through (get spells, etc). If I start a new journey, does that automatically end the existing one?

Simple question: anyone here bought Starbound thru the Humble Bundle store? It is listed as "Download DRM free version, but the page also says "Starbound is provided via Steam Key." (as opposite to games like Undertale -UNDERTALE is provided via Steam key for Mac and Windows and is also provided DRM-free for Windows. For key redemption, a free Steam account is required.)

Do anyone know were the error is? on the description or on the listing?

Q: GTA V Story Mode: should I save over progress or always in a new slot?

I've just brought GTA V - never played before. Regarding saving progress, should I be always saving in a new slot, or overwriting the progress saved? I get a message like "only 1.6% of played, do you want to overwrite?". If I overwrite will I lose some gameplay? Thanks...
