@StrixVaria You should do it
You know you want to
I hate that I want to.
I kind of want to replay Sonic 2 to see if it's as bad as this is and I just had no idea at the time because I was young and stupid.
@StrixVaria You can deowner @uni to make you feel better about it?
Nah @uni is a good owner.
@Fluttershy Ah, can you talk about it or is there some NDA stuff going on?
@StrixVaria but this is the issue with taking/remaking a classic into the modern area, just look at Yooka-Laylee, same thing but worse I guess since more people complained
13:02
@BlueBarren I don't think that's what happened here. In their effort to make the boss battles more "interesting" or something, they've made them just bad.
Classic game design, although nostalgic for most is actually just bad.
I liked the old, simple Sonic boss battles.
These new ones have weird gimmicks that aren't explained and you have to die repeatedly trying to figure them out.
You can't learn on the fly in some cases and just adapt.
Like I said, I should stream sonic adventure 1 some time
@StrixVaria ah I didn't know this. To be honest I haven't really been paying attention to Mania just assumed it falls into the same category
I did 2 already
13:02
@DanmakuGrazer I don't think there was an NDA.
They also have these long periods of "just wait for the battle to progress to the next phase" in almost every one so far.
Lots of downtime while the boss is invulnerable, then only a very brief window of vulnerability and back to some inane minigame.
@Fluttershy What did you think about it in more detail?
@DanmakuGrazer It still needs a ton of work. The hunting environment was mostly barren, the two monsters they had to hunt were pretty dull, with only a couple of attacks each, easily telegraphed and avoidable. The UI was awful, as was the quest system.
Sonic Mania is The Witcher 3 all over again. Everyone but me loves it and I can't understand how.
I understand the main appeal is "it's More Of The Same"
which is remarkable since we're talking Sonic
and "more of the same" is mostly what people desperately want
13:07
I wonder if I can buy sonic mania OST directly
Hmm, it's 54try for base game
I might stop by gamestop later and pick up a switch cart of it
it's like a $20 game right
I see that my opinion is highly valued here.
2
It's pretty great
Also, for once the YouTube comment is worth reading
@StrixVaria I value your opinion!

Q: What is the Razer Ripsaw doing? Can it make streaming better with just a laptop?

Bailey MillerI am considering purchasing the capture card from Razer that accepts Hdmi in, and then Usb 3's the data out. My question is what is the capture card doing to the data before it reaches my computer? Is it simply sending input that my computer will have to encode? Because my goal is to reduce video...

Q: Are there any functional disadvantages to disabling day/night cycle?

musefanI don't think it matters, but for reference I am playing the PS4 edition. I am considering disabling the day/night cycle mode. If I do this will it have any negative effects on my game play. As an example of the opposite, if I could somehow disable day mode so it was always night, then I would ...

13:37
@StrixVaria what?
Oh hey, Defenders is added to Netflix today
I have to finish Iron Fist, then start and finish Luke Cage, then go way back and finish Daredevil, before I start that.
I only watched half of season 2 of Daredevil because I was bored out of my mind by it.
I wonder if I can watch Defenders without bothering with that.

Q: What these numbers show and how to know if this number is good or bad after evolving the pokemon

user195247 Sorry if my question is not very clear. Thank you in advance guys

Q: Tomb Raider 2013 storyline - is it sloppy?

Frank DonaldI completed playing Tomb raider 2013 few weeks back. I loved the gameplay and everything that game offers. However when coming to storyline I felt it very sloppy in the end. I loved the way story unfolded in the beginning but at the end made me totally upset. Two things I need to highlight is ...

I have 2 utility knives in my bag, and there's bag checks on subway
Let's see if I get arrested :thinking:
Please don't do that. Seriously.
Or rather, please don't make yourself look like a terrorist
13:45
It's not intentional
I don't have cash for taxi
@PrivatePansy I mean unless @ave is close to home or somewhere she can store this stuff what is she supposed to do? Just throw them away?
And I needed these so I bought them at those dept stores
@Avery Are they still in the packaging?
Kinda
It's probably fine if they're in packaging or well wrapped
13:46
@StrixVaria I stopped iron fist after episode 2. I should really watch it.
I mean they're wrapped but no packaging
@Nzall if someone is intent on labeling you a terrorist or is afraid enough I don't think it matters if they're in the packaging or not
@Wipqozn I liked the first few episodes more than where it's going now, but it's still fine.
@StrixVaria I haven't started Defenders yet, but I'm up to date, so I can let you know if you'd miss anything?
@Fluttershy Sounds good.
13:46
They weren't sold with packaging
@Wipqozn honestly not worth it
Do you still have the receipt so you can prove you just bought them and aren't planning on attacking the cart?
Also, Iron Fist is considered the worst of the four shows, so if you're liking it, you should be able to get through Luke Cage.
I hqve receipt
@Avery but isn't someone's concern your intent to use the knives? Why else are they checking bags?
13:48
Mostly for bombs
Now when you say utility knives, what are those?
honestly I could see someone doing a bag check being concerned with kitchen knives, not like it really makes a difference

Q: Making lamps work

ZissouuSo I found a lamp in an underground tunnel and brought it back to the house but it won't turn on with the rest of my lamps at night. Am I doing something wrong to make it turn on or is this not possible?

A utility knife is a knife used for general or utility purposes. The utility knife was originally a fixed blade knife with a cutting edge suitable for general work such as cutting hides and cordage, scraping hides, butchering animals, cleaning fish, and other tasks. Craft knives are tools mostly used for crafts. Today, the term "utility knife" also includes small folding or retractable-blade knives suited for use in the modern workplace or in the construction industry. There is also a utility knife for kitchen use which is between a chef's knife and paring knife in size. == History == The fixed...
Like, you can probably cut someone really good with it, but unless you hit them in the jugular or another important artery, it'll be painful but survivable
14:05
I'm safe
I skipped bag check
T'was glorioua
@strixvaria Cook Serve Delicious 2 in a month!
1 hour ago, by StrixVaria
WAIT COOK SERVE DELICIOUS 2 WAS DELAYED
@StrixVaria BUT ONLY ONE MONTH
It was 1 week before I heard this news :(
Something called Meshi Quest: 5-Star Restaurant just came out, but it's F2P so I'm scared to try it
14:16
It looks like every mobile cooking game.
There's approximately a 100% chance that there's an energy mechanic.
I haven't actually looked into CSD2. It's not built around F2P stuff, is it?
No, it's like $20 with no microtransactions.
You get money for doing well, and can buy upgrades to let you get money faster, but not to the extent of an incremental game.
It's like "you sell french fries for $8 now instead of $5, but now you have an extra potential recipe to deal with"
@BlueBarren these stuff
and they can be quite lethal
The first one had kind of a weird mechanic where most of the money you earned was from having a perfect day, not from the food itself. It took forever for any of your menu items to pay themselves off
I mean, it was fine, but upgrading from $8 to $12 steak or whatever for $1500 took forever to pay itself off
user15026
I couldn't get the hang of CSD, it went so fast

Q: Need help with scripting in RPG maker XP Pokmeon Essenentials

John KlubertanzI am trying to design an encounter with an npc that acts as a road block unless you have more than one Pokemon in your party. How would I do that, as $Trainer.party.length causes a crash. The script I am attempting to create is posted below. http://i.imgur.com/vURz2qe.png

@Sterno Yeah, true.
Hopefully that's tuned a little nicer this time.
You do wind up making hundreds of steaks over time, though.
@Avery oh we call those box cutters here
@Ash The trick is to not put salads on your menu
:P
What? Salads are easy. Don't put soup on the menu if you want simple foods.
Oh, you're right
I was thinking of all the chopping but that was soup, not salad
14:37
soup is sad anyway
14:48
o hai @StrixVaria
15:00
dammit knowyourmeme
I'd whitelist you if you didn't have autoplaying videos
ofc it's ancap face too
X button says "none of this matters to you? Understandable have a nice day"
@Avery Honestly whether I blocked you or not for annoying reasons in the first place if you have a popup like this because I have an ad blocker on you're staying blocked
huh, that's new
untappd added "IPA - New England" as a style apparently
I have no idea what that means
(I do know what "IPA - West Coast" would mean but not New England)
15:33
Well I've only got one more week of my internship left
counting down the days
@Avery so dank fam
@GodEmperorDune well that's reaching cringy levels tbh
"why is millennial humor so weird?" it's called a resurgence of neo-dadaism, you uncultured filth. take an art class and get depressed
15:51
@Unionhawk neo-dadaism?
I see the word "dad" and think of @Yuuki
I'm simple folk
neo-dadaism reminds me of a part of millennial humor which I dislike which is depressing really
so what is neo-dadaism? Is it not as lighthearted as I'm hoping?
@kylegaddo *millennials rush to google dadaism so they can comment*
because I'm hoping it just means everyone is making dad jokes all the time
@Avery hey
You're a millennial too
15:57
@Avery give me a week and I check that twitter link
wait so millenials AREN'T killing something, we are bringing it back to life?
@Avery so it's literally just gibberish?
i am disappoint
@BlueBarren dab
16:00
@Avery jumps off The Bridge
Sorry it took so long, I had to install gimp so that I could crop the image.
@GodEmperorDune fam didn't you know that all these people inc. salvador dali loved to dab in the morning and shitposted on twitter everyday?
@StrixVaria get with the times, I already looked it up
1 min ago, by StrixVaria
Sorry it took so long, I had to install gimp so that I could crop the image.
Also gimp pls why is your UI so many separate windows?
16:02
@Avery well if melting clocks isn't shitposting, i don't know what is
@StrixVaria go to windows dab, pick single-window mode
2 mins ago, by BlueBarren
@StrixVaria get with the times, I already looked it up
@Avery This is so much nicer, thank you :)
and just use pinta if you need something quick to crop images
it's like paint but doesn't suck, except it does suck as it has no text support
i like greenshot
16:04
Ok, will probably grab that too.
I only use linux at work so I have no idea what utility to use for anything non-work-related.
And I don't do much image editing for work.
@StrixVaria If you're on Windows, Paint.net is pretty great
I mean at that point snipping tool exists for the precise use case of "cropped screenshot"
@StrixVaria gimp is fine usually
krita and aseprite are good professional art tools on linux
for screenshot you can sharex
16:06
@PrivatePansy has anyone tried 3D paint? Is it an okay replacement?
@badp except he's on linux
@BlueBarren not really
@Avery @Unionhawk mentioned the snipping tool.
eh
@badp not even okay?
also i like how @fredley made me an exclusive room for political shitposting
16:07
there's also uh
There's probably 7 dozen tools for Linux to crop images
Tbh
7 dozen hundred thousand
Maybe just 7
they probably all use scrot but
@badp nah most of those are cli
there's only 7 gui ones
16:08
but you access the cli from the gui
so like
checkmate atheists
I don't even want to think about trying to use a cli tool to crop an image
That sounds like it would be awful
@Unionhawk imagemagick is actually pretty sweet
though probably for image related tasks other than interactively cropping pictures
@Unionhawk but what if you need to crop 12 billion images at once?
@GodEmperorDune I would rather die
millennials are killing @uni, thinkpiece at 11
16:11
@Unionhawk or you could replace your death with a tiny bash script
(not tiny; actually quite large, because bash is awful)
there's also maim
also scrot
@badp i was about to ask for bash alternatives but i think we've had this convo before
and escrotum
(not even joking github.com/Roger/escrotum)
@Avery wut

Stack Overflow (Azerbaijani developers)

Proposed Q&A site for azerbaijani developers who wants to use SO philosophy and and guidelines while asking and answering questions.

Closed before being launched.

16:11
@GodEmperorDune github.com/Roger/escrotum/issues/12 << check the issue
@GodEmperorDune unless I wanted something simple like crop to 500px square relative to the center of the image
@Avery hue
@Unionhawk sorry i don't speak to ded boats
@Unionhawk maim/scrot/escrotum does that
and I use it daily
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment I'm failing to see how this is a unique, how does it differ from SO?
@BlueBarren that's why it was closed before launch
16:16
@GodEmperorDune fish
@badp yeah we've had this convo before
this is why Superheroes have hero names
and should use them
@BlueBarren Doesn't he kill the Joker right after?
@BlueBarren ehhhh manhunter or one of the others will mindwipe
@DanmakuGrazer unfamiliar with the comic so who knows
16:19
@DanmakuGrazer oh is this the injustice storyline?
@GodEmperorDune shouldn't you not rely on abilities like that? What if they're not around
I have no idea
I remember reading that somewhere
Superman has killed the Joker
at least once
@BlueBarren comic writers have a way to not let that forever mess up storylines
later on the villian gets hit in the head or mindwiped or something so the secret identity isn't worthless
I still don't think changes the fact superheroes should use their superhero names just to be safe
I mean if I want to keep my real identity a secret I wouldn't let anyone talk to my Xbox friends because they use my real name willy-nilly
even if I ask them not to, just force of habit
16:24
@BlueBarren well yeah, that's kinda the point of the superhero name
although i imagine that there are more people in the DC universe named "bruce" than just bruce wayne
oh god
@Avery In the editor?
yes
no details yet, but seems windows only
> Please note: The Mac version is provided as a curtesy for team environments using Windows and Mac. The Mac version is NOT affected by the identified vulnerability.
of course everyone forgets about the linux version
updating requires like 10 gbs and takes hours so sigh idk
Apologies to Ash, but FYI Drudge is reporting Bannon's out at the White House
also "curtesy"
16:39
What impact that'll have on anything, who knows?
@TimStone Awaiting independent confirmation but that sounds like a thing that might be a thing
Bannon sounds like the at least partially competent guy "behind the curtains" who was keeping everything together.
@TimStone Could be fun if Breitbart turns on Trump
@MadScientist for definitions of fun
16:40
So hopefully the impact is that Trump makes a sequence of obvious blunders that turns his normal fanbase against him finally.
Just mailed support asking about linux version and informed them about the typo.
@TimStone drudge? IDK, he's unreliable.
@Avery On these matters less so, because he's basically besties with the administration
He did also get "ailes dead" right
drudge really needs to learn some css:tm:
16:50
graphic design is my passion
@Avery the readers like living in the past, why shouldn't he target IE 4?
sadly it's broken even on ie5.5
why do you have access to ie5.5
I mean it works
just not too well
@Unionhawk shush
16:54
Ah now we're doing the "I wasn't fired I quit" bit
Ugh, remind me to never let my son play with others again. Damn everyone else's kids and their germs
but yeah holy crap ie6 mostly works fine
He seemed to handle it pretty well but I'm here dying
@TimStone i'm pretty sure the geneva accords banned kids and their biological weapons
16:57
Someone call the Marshall of the Supreme Court or whatever

Q: Minecraft the Data Tag Does Not Match

Cobalt772Im trying to detect an item when i throw it, however it says the data tag does not match for 0ece610b-7039-4fa6-beb4-2d876cbcb37a. heres the command >scoreboard players set @e[type=Item] S 1 {Item:{id:"minecraft:wool",Damage:8,Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:"South"}}}} Anyone know how to fix this?...

I mean to be fair it was quite boring
17:32
Chameleons are fun cause they'll grab anything you give them. https://t.co/aTJ2Abjrs4
I just revealed a huge new side dish in the community channel :O :O TOAST CONFIRMED!!!!!! https://t.co/S3TwbBEbX0
This is going to be the game of the century.
@Emma_The_Ward My Flying squirrels : ) https://t.co/mhLoTrnoIi
18:11
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
18:24
Are any of you feeling angry or upset today? Well here, have a comic!
can it be 4:30 yet
Can it be tomorrow at 7 yet
I've got my keys!
congrats on acquiring keys to a tiny living space
this is funny because london real estate listings are funny
@Ronan \o/
@Unionhawk I'm not moving to London.
18:37
Well thanks for ruining everything about that joke
I did say where I was moving yesterday...
@Unionhawk tbh as long as I can sleep and store my everything and have internet I don't really care how big the place is
Clearly you just don't care about me. Such a friend you are @Unionhawk.
@Avery You can rent garages for obcene amounts in london
advertised as "1 bedroom flat"
@Unionhawk bibity bobity boo it now 4:30
18:39
who even cares about london
@fredley, probably
probably
But other than that, I mean
it's not even going to be in the EU pretty soon
@Avery which London?
@BlueBarren both
any
18:40
@BlueBarren london, ON
_cities.Where(c=>c.Name.Contains("London"))
@uni I'm getting sick of you, I challenge you to a fight
@BlueBarren not worth it
he just used linq
he already lost
@Avery Why do I get the feeling this is actually about the UK :thinkingface:
@Avery but I use linq on the regular
@BlueBarren because it was but you asked for clarification and I just googled "london, " and saw a "london canada" so I searched that and it gave me "london, ontario" so I said "london, ON" just to confuse you because it's kinda obvious which london we're talking about because fredley doesn't live in best country.
18:42
oh I'm sorry, var rv = new List<city> foreach(var wharrgarbl in _cities) {if(wharrgarbl.Name.Contains("London")) rv.Add(wharrgarbl)} return rv
@BlueBarren then ye shall enter the "losers' club"
@Avery oh I thought it's because you remember I was in London, ON and I know it's obviously but I asked because I don't want people to forget about London, ON
@BlueBarren til
I stopped remembering what/where people were after some unfun thingy that happened around 1.5 years ago
There's probably a London in every state in the united states
@Avery don't worry, I'm leaving in a week
18:46
@Avery I'm sorry I do enterprise C# instead of something slightly cooler than that :(
@Unionhawk wow we're so similar, are you me?
@Unionhawk don't worry I use linq too
we're all losers
London, Conecuh County, Alabama, an unincorporated community
London, Montgomery County, Alabama, an unincorporated community
London, Arizona, an unincorporated community
London, Arkansas, a city
London, California, a census-designated place
London, Indiana, an unincorporated community
London, Kentucky, a city
London, Michigan, an unincorporated community
London, Minnesota, an unincorporated community
London, Missouri, an unincorporated community
London, Ohio, a city
London, Richland County, Ohio, an unincorporated community
Those are all the londons in the US.
@Uni is wrong again.
What about the New Londons?
18:48
What about @Wipqozn
is he not wrong and worst anymore
@Avery take that back
@DanmakuGrazer why would you want to name a city new London?
only if wipqozn takes his status as worst back
@Avery performing operations on lists is like 50% of what I do on this current project lol
sounds fun
18:50
Eh it's not bad
honestly enterprise development is less terrible than working on your own project
It depends
@Avery what if you're working on an enterprise project on your own?
I like being on the project side of things
working on my own stuff requires me to think
18:51
I do not like being on the maintenence side
@Avery I recommend dogs if you need something to think about
Calling a place "new XXX" is basically being like we want a different name than that place, but we aren't creative enough to actually come up with a different name.
@BlueBarren I have a dog downstairs and CRAP I FORGET TO FEED IT TODAY AFK
@Dragonrage I should change my username to "new_Dragonrage"
@Avery ur welcome
@Dragonrage I want to know where old zealand is
18:54
awww yeah
there that's done
but yeah I don't like dogs
that feeling when you nail some index arithmetics on the first try
probably
So we finally defeated Calamity Bannon?
does he become bannondorf now/
did somebody make that joke yet
@BlueBarren I'm a weird person
I don't like thinking
but I think
and don't enjoy others thinking for me
especially when they don't know me well enough
18:56
welcome, I now declare you human
@Unionhawk in Denmark just south of Copenhagen
@Dragonrage isn't that just Regular Zealand?
Regular Zealand is old Zealand.
