The Bridge

New Pokémon game

9

@fredley Yessss

An incremental a day

That favicon though

2:07 PM

@fredley Oh man it works well on mobile

ish

I don't want to visit github.io on this machine, the infosec people would probably immediately call me

@Unionhawk really?!

of all the domains to consider malicious...

I mean probably

@fredley. I can't see multiple of the same pokemon in my catches.

I think this is bydesign

@Unionhawk Yeah, my squirtle evolved, but still appears in the list

2:13 PM

@Unionhawk Yes. I just noticed the "you sell pokemon for money"

@Arperum What do you think people just throw money out of their pockets when they lose battles?

should an edit that only changes "pokemon" to "Pokémon" really be allowed?

Meh

Q: why isnt my world showing in singleplayer?

0

I dicied to backup one of my world and I did and then when I put it back in after copying it the world did not show up i did this before and it worked so whats the deal?

0

Q: Do they use a ranking system in smash?

In super smash bros tournaments, do they have a ranking system? what is it?

super-smash-bros-4 super-smash-bros-brawl super-smash-bros-melee

If it only does that and nothing else I might decline the edit

But if it does that + tags or other fixes, meh why not

2:17 PM

I know some people in the room will say "no reject it and set the user on fire for wasting a 2k's time"

it's already out of my queue, I don't know if someone else did something for it. I was only curious

What do the blue squares mean on routes?

it seemed like a trivial edit at best, it's easier to type Pokemon because most keyboards don't have the é

@Arperum I think it means you caught everything? But I have no idea

@Kaizerwolf Don't see it in history

2:19 PM

Update: no it doesn't

@Unionhawk I can't find it either... weird, I dunno what happened to it then. I didn't approve or skip it or anything

/shrug

No idea

meh

it's lost to the ages now

@twobugs Can't be it. since I have blue squares on routes I haven't even been close to.

Yeah hell if I know

2:25 PM

@Kaizerwolf no reject it and set the user on fire for wasting a 2k's time

Jokes aside, I'd decline it if it was only that

Like twobugs said

This game sends you on a different path than I think most people take through Gen 1

It was e->stylized and pokemons->pokemon

@twobugs is this gen 1 or 2 though?

meh/meh

@arda gen 1, starters are charmander

gen 2 is mudkip (iirc?)

@arda alright cool, I'll keep it in mind next time

2:27 PM

or is that gen 3

I don't know

@Unionhawk Gen2 is Totodile

ah right

EMERALD IS GEN 1?

Gen 2 is Cyndaquil, Totodile, Chikorita

My childhood was a lie

2:28 PM

@arda wat

emerald is gen... 3?

Yes, Emerald is gen 3

Just like I remember

Encountered Moltres

1% catch rate :(

So... That means that I misremember starters in emerald.

@fredley ouch

You might be thinking of Pokemon LeafGreen, which is the gen 3 remake of the gen 1 release Pokemon Green (which was apparently the one released in Japan or something and NA got blue)

2:30 PM

@Unionhawk Not exactly

LeafGreen/FireRed were Gen 3 remakes of Blue

All Gens after Gen1 are imaginary.

Nobody wants to talk about Green

@twobugs Fine, whatever

@MadMAxJr yes

Praise Helix. Death to Arceus, the false god.

2:31 PM

pls

I can't wait for Pokemon Sun to release

praise the helix stone

that's going to be awesome

I'd get moon if I had a 3ds

pokemon sun

I mainly want Sun for the Dark Souls joke potential

2:33 PM

praise the sun!

and also because its legendary looks way cooler

I would love a hybrid Dark Souls/Pokemon gameplay game.

Bloodied, broken, down to your last sliver of health, hold up your giant two handed pokeball and crush the damned beast. ~Pokemon soul acquired~

Q: Is there an easy way to fly back to the previous system?

0

The game, if you follow the Atlas, pushes you forward. I jumped from system 1 to system 2. I can not find System 1 again. I search for an hour. I tried using a green star as a fixed point so I know I always start in the same orientation. I have since moved on and I was not able to find syste...

change.org/p/nintendo-make-harambe-a-pokémon this keeps getting signatures ouch

How many pokemon do I need to catch to get to route 3?

or am I doing something wrong?

2:35 PM

Click the stop sign to go to the town first

Then route 3.

@Unionhawk Click the town. beat the gym

@MadMAxJr thanks

Gotta beat brock.

Also: max levels due to gyms.

@MadMAxJr PREY ~~SLAUGHTERED~~ CAPTURED

Oh

Well pretend strikethru

2:36 PM

I choose you Father Gascoigne!

The enemy trainer used music box! It's super effective!

And really depressing.

I need to remember that this game isn't pokemon go and I don't need to catch tons of caterpie to evolve

(etc)

Can anyone else... not see the entire Gen 1 map?

The right side is cut off

@twobugs Hmm... yes

But I'm on mobile so

ymmv

@twobugs Yeah it's a bit janky, it doesn't scale to screen width

I don't know what the blue boxes on the routes are.

2:41 PM

@MadMAxJr Me neither

@Unionhawk Turn your phone on his side. that results in entire map shown.

Lesson: Never tell the city when I'm doing things.

@MadMAxJr I choose you, Father Grigori!

Just got charged $75 for the privilege of changing my own breaker.

Okay, so when you go to downvote on reddit, it says "Don't downvote if you disagree! It deters discussion!"

What are you supposed to downvote for?

2:53 PM

Irrelevant stuff

basically

@Sterno stuff you disagree with

I know some communities that are like "that's stupid, if it's not related it should be removed"

and as such hide downvote in the css

You downvote if you're Hitler

basically, downvote has no real purpose

people downvote when you tell them that they suck at Overwatch because they main Dad of Duty and refuse to change when it's necessary

2:56 PM

Dad of Duty is always necessary!

All I know is on r/DestinyTheGame you downvote if it's remotely positive or helpful

And you upvote if it's something not at all related to Destiny like "Hey guys I just got my prosthetic leg and I put a Destiny logo on it"

And you gold if it's /u/bunjysupport saying "xDxDxD we are evil"

No see it's /u/bungosupport

That is a Real Thing

Whatever, obviously not really bungie support user

same difference

Hmm...

@Frank ...

3:00 PM

@twobugs we had a local version too: /u/rt_erdogan

/u/NyanticSupport

Frank

@Arperum Yay for city permits.

I told them straight up I'll do it myself next time and not tell them.

NyanticSupport: Are the servers down? Lol I dunno. Maybe?

@MadMAxJr 5 REDDIT GOLDS

GOLDBAIT STATUS: SUCCESS

NyanticSupport: Nobody tell anybody but there's really only six people on staff here. Fred is really panicking about how much server power you guys are using.

NyanticSupport: We're holding back on implementing trading because we're seriously afraid of you guys turning Pidgeys and Rattatas into a baseline currency.

3:04 PM

I was just at Burger King and they charged me 17 Pidgeys for a Whopper

Can you break a Raticate? I need a few Ratattas for the pokesoda machine.

Hmmm, I beat the pokemon game, but I still only caught 51 unique pokemon

2/10

@MadMAxJr Hall0Games-Saen: mind blown, totally amazing

20 golds

500 silvers

Just go full Reddit and do Doge-Sean

(Never go full Reddit)

Sean with bullhorn from two buildings away. "I'M NOT SURE WHY YOU CANT SEE OTHER PLAYERS, BUT HEY I HAVE A BUS TO CATCH LETS TALK LATER."

3:14 PM

I think the most generous theory of multiplayer as a thing that is not in No Man's Sky is that it's NYI, but they thought they could get away with it being NYI for a bit since the universe is so large

Yeah, that's basically my take

I don't think they are scumbags, but Sean shouldn't talk as much as he does

Readme file: "You will find a series of comments in the source code. They will help you understand what it's doing." :|

Possibly

This is at least better than "READ ME AND LEARN NOTHING"

marginally

assuming there are comments I guess

3:22 PM

Latest info suggests Trump is going back to being Trump

Prepare for insanity

I mean, latest info is he traded in his campaign manager

and also that Ailes is going to coach him for the debates?

Barn (unit)

A barn (symbol b) is a unit of area equal to 10−28 m2 (100 fm2). Originally used in nuclear physics for expressing the cross sectional area of nuclei and nuclear reactions, today it is also used in all fields of high-energy physics to express the cross sections of any scattering process, and is best understood as a measure of the probability of interaction between small particles. A barn is approximately the cross-sectional area of a uranium nucleus. The barn is also the unit of area used in nuclear quadrupole resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance to quantify the interaction of a nucleus with...

Wow, Manafort tied to routing Russian political money to Washtington lobbying firms

(no I don't actually know what a fax machine would do to a picture but that's close enough because NEITHER DO YOU)

@twobugs yup

@badp must find fax machine to test this...

Also the head of Breitbart is now apparently Trump's campaign manager

Good old Brexitbait

3:30 PM

@twobugs Yes

Fun Times are ahead

(1 mile)

hmmm... fun required ahead

fun is mandatory

Praise the fun

what about faxes

are faxes mandatory?

@badp no

3:31 PM

or you're going to Guantanamo

@badp 10/10

Oh man I completely forgot when the previous Trump campaign head grabbed the arm of a Breitbart reporter, and then denied it until footage proved he did, all while Breitbart backed the Trump guy instead of their own reporter

You see, in 1992, this wonderful invention called email attachments was invented

It was bad enough said reporter and several other Breitbart employees stepped down

In conclusion,

i hate food pun memes as much as you lot hate animated gifs

4:12 PM

You pretty much just dared us to find an animated food pun gif. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

@arda I'm not sure if you can without somehow making the Logitech Gaming Software redirect them to the screen, because if you have a logitech applet running like this one, but the LGS is off, it just shows a little window on your main screen

@Chippies I might write that in arduino

arduino is a terrible name for a language :/ It is not pure C nor own language, but somewhere between :/

4:16 PM

These gifs are awful

@twobugs chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/35?m=31744957#31744957 pls

@arda oh? I thought arduino was the actual device

like RPi

@Chippies it is, but the language is called arduino too

Well I meant more the images themselves are bad

@arda eh, I thought it used API in C or something like that...

4:18 PM

@twobugs both gifs and these gifs are bad

so it actually has its own language, interesting

@Chippies yep, it uses C as a base, but has some differences

Kevin van der Velden

@arda no not really? It's just C++ with some swapped libraries

@KevinvanderVelden I saw the code called arduino a lot, but well, I don't have too much info on the meta part. Sorry for misinformation.

@Yuuki I...*think* I posted that already...let me check so I know if I can call you out

@Fluttershy I'm too lazy to remember to do this when I get home, so tell @FAE to check out a game called "Between Two Cities". She might like it. the tl;dr is tile based city building game, but the 'twist' is that each player is making two cities, and you're making each city with a different player (i.e. City AB is made by players A & B, City BC is made by players BC, City AC is made by players A & C). When end game rolls around and you tally up your points...

And it's definitely not on topic there

@arda About how you play the game and the game mechanics

I know about the linking bonuses in the exosuit, and I'm wondering if the same mechanic applies to your ship. I put two similar components next to each other, but I don't see any UI indication that linking is in effect.
