Ooo I have time to make breakfast

@Unionhawk Oh, I forgot to cc you on Alolan Dugtrio.

I saw

It looks fabulous, huh?

Actually, given that one of them has a bowl cut, I'm thinking it's a Three Stooges reference.

It looks like the next big Pokémon meme

@sequoiad It just keepsgoing and oing

Honestly I 'm loving how often it says "that's so 2015"

Kevin van der Velden

It's raining so hard outside everything is just gray

It's like dense fog ut with rain

@sequoiad 10/10 would read again

@Unionhawk Breakfast best fast breaking

if I could train myself to eat whilst sleeping I would

Kevin van der Velden

Just constantly keep eating while sleeping? I can't imagine that ending with you fitting through the door

2:29 PM

@KevinvanderVelden I have a rediculously fast metabolism... like I eat more than anyone else I know already and don't put weight on

so don't think it would cause any problems

@sequoiad Habits stick with you, your metabolism won't.

I doubt it, Fallout seems a reasonable prediction of what would happen if Trump wins

Q: What is the maximum capacity of paint which Mario can get?

I was wondering if there was a cap to the cap of how much paint Mario can store in Huey, and if so what that cap is. That is, the maximum the number next to the MAX below the paint storage.

@Wipqozn That sounds like something I'd do.

In other news, I was finally free of Avadon 2 but then for some reason started Avadon 3 and now I'm trapped again

2:45 PM

A reminder that this exists

@fredley Finally! An alternative to IFTT!

@KevinvanderVelden I sorta expect nukes as a birthday gift from President Trump. Would also be conveniently close to yours to also count as a gift to you.

Kevin van der Velden

You were... 2 weeks before me or something? March twenty something

@Arperum You get the burning fireball, @KevinvanderVelden gets the radioactive fallout!

Kevin van der Velden

Sharing is only fair

Which trump doesn't like... hmm

GUYS I FIGURED OUT HOW TO PREVENT TRUMP FROM NUKING PEOPLE. Just tell him that we'd be giving them nukes, and why would you want to share like that?

So apparently, Howard Tayler of Schlock Mercenary fame is the author of one of the Civ VI famous people quotes

One more reason to read it for those that haven't yet.

@KevinvanderVelden 22, but close enough. This year I got suicide bombers from IS. So a nuke would top that.

@sequoiad TIL that there is a thing called pugjs.org.... i'm gonna shoehorn it in to my next project, i don't care what it does

@GodEmperorDune It's a templating engine

@fredley oh damn, django already does that

So you can squash your templating code like mankind's guided evolution squashed the pug's face, presumably

Kevin van der Velden

Templatize the templates?

@KevinvanderVelden yo dawg

3:15 PM

@fredley yo puwg*

@Nzall That UI is weird

Why does the quote have quotation marks in the background and in the text itself?

@Nzall Whaaaat. That is so awesome

LadyWacko and I are using some of our wedding presents money to get Civ VI :D

@fredley good thing the crown didn't make you pay in the equivalent pounds

@GodEmperorDune In 12-whatever it was they didn't even have pounds

@GodEmperorDune A bit off from the EU, you mean.

Today's "WTF" Kickstarter

@PrivatePansy I'm just imagining far off in the future, what's left of the broken wasteland that is the UK continues to pay fees to the EU to gain access to the shattered remnants of the post-apocalyptic EU Single Market.

I like the guy's bio

"I'm a creative, a graphic designer and in collaboration with a Roland Master. Work Hard to make dream come true"

@badp, pls to tell if he's insane

sooo... it's a dice rolling app?

amazing! I only have 3 of those already, for free.

RFC 1149.5 specifies 4 as the standard IEEE-vetted random number.

3:42 PM

@fredley he put 2k16 on a shirt unironically.

I think he's just really eccentric

@badp He also has a half-beard

Maybe it's actually @badp?

he's making art that's not ART.

I would never betray ART.

you can't ART if you can art.

it wouldn't be earnestly ARTy.

my ART is the earnestest ART.

@badp confirmed

I am both hungry and bored, this is not a good combination

ah well, half an hour more and then I can go home and play games

4:01 PM

this is my new headcanon for how brexit will go down @fredley

also my headcanon of @badp is how italians are depicted in danger 5

I expect the UK to become a flying continent like in FF6.

@MadMAxJr I'm more hoping we become Rapture

My wife wants to repaint various rooms in our house and I'm totally okay with it but I also don't really care one way or the other, and my lack of excitement is bothering her. I'M NORMAL, RIGHT?

(in that regard)

Yes

Yes

unless it's being painted glow in the dark or some sort of Avengers mural, because those would be cool

Kevin van der Velden

4:12 PM

I now want a glow in the dark sci-fi chip design on my walls. Thanks

@Sterno I'm confused as to what exactly they want to go with here. You can already use dice rolling apps and stuff that already exists on the market without any additional nonsense

@Unionhawk Yes

Confusion.

Maybe they were going for confusion.

Probably

This was a mobile mistake

Their 16 second video that explains literally nothing helps them there I think

4:14 PM

@fredley that link you posted earlier was fantastic

This was a mobile mistake (like your mom)

Wait what

Two mistakes for the price of one!

I will vote for this small dog.

@MadMAxJr but then trump will win, and @fredley will never let you forget it

I dunno. I don't think Trump plays fetch very well.

He's really great at fetch. He plays the best fetch. Nobody plays better fetch than him.

So I know that there are sites that have list of commands for Minecraft, But some of them either don't work or are for specific servers.

@badp well if trump wins, the only colors allowed will be white and orange

True fact: they have Orange pride marches in Ireland

and soon they will have "scottish independence day" marches in scotland

#lolbrexit

@GodEmperorDune Since Britain seems so keen on independence these days, they should be totally cool with that, right?

@Ellesedil well it's kinda their fault that scotland wants to leave, yeah

Any Unity developers in here?

I could use some suggestions on excellent tutorials or other learning materials for Unity.

There's a lot of info, and I'm trying to narrow it down so I can actually digest some of it.

6:13 PM

Try GameDev

Yeah, I'll end up there sooner or later. Just figured I'd ask here since I'm here already and haven't joined GameDev yet.

@Unionhawk I feel like I've seen this story before.

Not recently though, like last year or before.

@Yuuki a white hat that breaks into sites and converts their janky flash to html5

that would be useful

6:27 PM

@GodEmperorDune I mean, given that they're still breaking in without permission and rather radically changing their data, I think that still falls under black hat territory.

@GodEmperorDune Eh, the white hat would be using technologies that the site owner probably isn't familiar with. Not that the owner seems all that interested in maintaining things.

Even if what they're doing is arguably very good.

it's clearly a castle

how many houses have you seen with turrets...

@djsmiley2k all of them

@GodEmperorDune Or you could call it exports increasing in price due to the falling value of the pound, decreasing its foreign purchasing power, thanks to the United Kingdom leaving the European Union, also known as Brexit (cc @fredley).

There was a reddit thread challenging with "Name the source: Grandpa Simpson or Donald Trump?" followed by various quotes.

@MadMAxJr Reminds me of "Mitt Romney or Oliver Twist?"

Oh wait, no.

@MadMAxJr we wore onions on our belts, as was the style at the time

Charlie actually delivered the Medicare line almost verbatim in the 1971 movie's Fizzy Lifting Drink scene, but it was ultimately cut from the final release.

"Let's have Brexit! It's 2016 anyway. Can't get much worse."

I think the best present I could get for Christmas this year is me waking up and it's 2015. And 2016 was just me dreaming after eating too much Mexican food before bed.

@Yuuki so you want to re-live 2016 a week later?

Yeah I'm pretty sure @Yuuki is saying he's some kind of Eldritchian Horror who wants to spread fear and suffering to the world at large
