Ugh and I could've had a proper ham and egg croissant-wich and assorted fried/sauteed vegetables for breakfast instead.

Q: Source of powers in Mass effect series

Frank DonaldThis question out of curiosity, we have been seeing powers such as Overload, warp, lift, adrenaline rush and so on. I knew that these powers depend upon our character class but what exactly give the characters these powers. Is it the advanced cybernetics or the whole magic lies in the Omni tool...

@Ash What's amusing to me is that the question just says "our daughter-in-law was married". Rather than something like "our son married in January and they had a kid...".
@Lazers2.0 Element Zero. Read the codex (?) in game.
For the next few days, please have all news/politics discussion in this sparkly new room. This is an experiment; we will see how it goes and make a long-term plan from here.
11
Messages about news/politics will be moved to that room during this time.
@StrixVaria Question, isn't this what Venting was made for?
14:10
Wasn't there some other room that was used for rants about politics?
@Yuuki Venting was made ad hoc by a frustrated person. This is an officially agreed upon mod experiment.
We wanted a new room to start fresh.
We're actually going to be enforcing this and moving messages this time.
We also deleted venting
Yes, that too.
@Wipqozn RIP venting, RIP @Unionhawk
I'm still alive though
2
14:11
RIP Venting 2 --DAMMIT @KevinvanderVelden. GET OUT OF MY HEAD.
RIP @UNIONHAWK

So if you see a folks talking politics just give them a gentle nudge to the room. Not everyone notices the pins.
@Wipqozn Especially mobile kind of completely does not see them.
And my current browser size hides stars
I'm pretty sure owners can move messages as long as they're owners in both rooms. I didn't want to opt anyone in, but if any owners want to volunteer to also be in on the message-moving effort, we can make that happen.
14:13
in this room
@StrixVaria iirc you can move to anywhere if you're an owner here and are allowed to write in the target room
@Arperum yeah mobile is the worst. I've been bit by that more than once.
No, you need ownership in both
no
user15026
@Yuuki yeah I noticed that too, it was very carefully phrased and that amused me a lot
@Unionhawk As a mod, I have no idea how anything works for you other guys anymore.
14:14
re: kev. you don't need ownership on both.
Us poor plebs
I can't undo that though
1 message moved from Maid Café (メイド喫茶)
14:14
Which makes things potentially fun
yeah, it works.
Ok, so owners of this room feel free to help move things to the new room as necessary.
see android enthusiasts
@Avery that's weird.
(also RO abuse)
14:15
cc @fredley
@Wipqozn The reason you needed it for android hell was because android hell was gallery
@Unionhawk yeah
you could technically move messages there with just explicit write, probably
I'm just a God now so I forgot about that

so many stars in 6 mins
2
starbait granted
14:17
@Unionhawk I wish Android Enthusiasts was a more active chat.
@StrixVaria Don't you dare call me a person. I'm a mod.
My mistake.
The jury is still out on whether or not @fredley is in fact a person
3
He may or may not be a porkchop
14:20
He may or may not just be a sapient "Friday by Rebecca Black" video.
2
Truly a fate worse then death
Why is searching through the Visual Studio settings menu so awful?
Also we have almost cleared the star list of anything older then 10 minutes
Good job chat, we haven't done that in a while
Classic bridge is back
also more science: is my feature request implemented secretly or nope
nope, typing 64176 doesn't give me a result
that's less useful than it would have been for room 165 anyway
@Ash Another Skyrim theme cover you might like is the song "Himmelsrand" by Equilibrium. I couldn't find a good version on youtube in a second, but it can be found on Spotify.
user15026
14:28
@Arperum I will look it up when I get home again!
@Ash I found a version with terrible sound quality of a live show where I was on the first line, but sound quality was dreadfull. (I like the band a lot for their other music too, mostly in German, some in English)
It's not exactly clear vocals. The skyrim cover is purely instrumental though.
When was the last time I edited my profile? When SE still used HTTP.
Is this a setup for an elaborate pun
Well, I could try to make it one.

Q: You must specify which player you wish the action to be performed on help

Νέρων Παναγιωτόπουλοςtp @a[team=p3] -1098 128 85 7.1 When i trigger a command block with this in it it outputs: You must specify which player you wish the action to be performed on And when i type it in chat it says "{my uuid} is not a valid number" what do ? 1.12.1

"<error message> help" as a question title should be grounds for burnination.
I'm mostly kidding but there's that small part of me...
I don't remember how the team selector works
I feel like it wants a team color though?
@Yuuki but think of the seo
@badp I wish I hadn't deleted my old temporary work twitter account. I had this really good joke about a speaker mentioning "epileptic curve cryptography".
#SwiftOnSecurity RT NK_Ikan: SwiftOnSecurity This speaker is talking about "epileptic curve cryptography"... Better disable my hacker siren…
Like, that one
but my old Twitter account was NK_Ikan, but I deleted that one because it was too troublesome to keep work and private twitter separate
14:42
oh the thing is called CodeLens
and oh it's not included in VS 2013 pro
thanks Microsoft
yeah codelens got added in 2014 I think
:|
@Avery it's available in ultimate
but of course I only have professional at work
2013 ultimate?
@Avery yeah
huh
14:44
that's what this SO answer says
Have I said recently how much I hate working with date and time in Java?
random question
can't we already easily find out the new features of android by compiling aosp
nevermind there are public betas you can just install
android O beta is so good
I think they only publish commit in dumps
@Unionhawk sans emojis
the startup time is so gooooood
@badp eh
meh
15:02
@Unionhawk but muh pebble
@fredley RIP
@fredley wait what did they change
@Avery Doesn't O break the Pebble app?
@Unionhawk BLOBS4LYFE
@fredley gadgetbridge is a thing
15:03
@badp "Oh no"
I'm used to it now tbh
To the point that I forgot that was a change until now
but yeah rip rebble
To be fair, RIP pebble regardless of android o
ginge's last patch to rebble os was like a couple months ago
15:05
what happens when android gets through the alphabet?
user15026
Hahaha I wonder that too
user15026
Some dude just got super mad at me because I interrupted his reading because I sneezed twice
@BlueBarren What happened when Microsoft ran out of insane ways to number their products? They made up new ones.
Android 95
@BlueBarren Well, they opened with candies and sweets.
15:06
Android ME
Android ಠ
@Unionhawk Is that the cyborg operating system?
What's Ubuntu going to do?
user15026
@Yuuki still alphabetical, though afaik
technically at the current rate of android releases, android Z will be, like...
user15026
15:07
@Yuuki I can't tell you ;)
20 years from now or something
@Unionhawk 11
Has it been annual? I guess it has
The past few years at least, they've announced at I/O and then released a few months later.
That's true
15:10
@StrixVaria are you telling me 10 isn't a real number?
@BlueBarren Really all numbers are just part of your imagination.
@Yuuki that means after z they should name the next version of Android "BlueBarren" ;)
all numbers are made up
@Yuuki Yeah, I don't think anyone has ever actually seen five.
15:11
@Yuuki first people tell me the voices are just in my head now you're telling me the numbers are too?
isn't anything real?
@BlueBarren Things stopped being real in 2016.
points to room description ->
@BlueBarren I would fix this grammatical error but I kinda like it in a certain context
@Unionhawk pointing is rude
^ no u
15:15
@Unionhawk What even are numbers?
@Unionhawk did you make sure not to point at me when you said that?
@fredley What's reality? What's "what"?
Argh damn you Vive price-cut which I know was already mentioned but still taunts my wallet so
@Yuuki But what is 77, other than one more than 76?
Is it though?
Is it really?
15:20
What is one?
@TimStone vtc as duplicate of message 39523768
@fredley According to the Internet, 0.9999...
The loneliest number that you ever knew
@Yuuki It's also 0!
EXPLAIN THAT, ATHEISTS
Since people use 0-indexing and 1-indexing, that obviously means that 0 == 1.
15:22
but 0 !== 1
thanks javascript
@Unionhawk 0! == 1 but 0 !== 1
What is space? What is time? What is spacetime?
@StrixVaria How quickly did the tickets for the Worlds you attended sell out?
I'm thinking about going this year.
@Yuuki I honestly can't remember.
I bought them directly, though, not from a reseller.
I'm pretty sure I didn't buy them the instant that they went on sale.
Riot sells the tickets directly?
It took a few days to convince my friends to go.
15:25
How much were they?
By reseller I meant scalper I guess.
Let me dig through my emails.
Yeah, it was through ticketmaster, and I remember we did buy them immediately now that I'm looking through the history.
Well, IIRC, you watched the semi-finals and not the finals?
Yeah, it was semi-finals.
Finals tickets probably sell out real quickly.
Let's see, semi-finals are going to be in Shanghai and the finals are going to be in Beijing.
It was kind of an ordeal to get them because of the way reserving seats works on ticketmaster.
My wife wound up being the one to actually make the purchase so I can't remember the cost.
I think it was something like $50-70/seat, but we were pretty far away.
15:27
Ticketmaster is fun
for definitions of fun
They refunded my Linkin Park tickets without me having to take any action, so there is at least some value to using them.
It's about 4 hours by car and 1-2 hours by high-speed train from my hometown to Shanghai.
And my hometown to Beijing is 11 hours by car, 4 hours by high-speed train, or 2 hours by plane.
I guess if I'm going to watch the semi-finals, I could stay with my relatives. But if I want to catch the finals, I'll need to book a hotel room in Beijing.
Is this like, total route, or
pick one of 3
@Unionhawk Pick one.
Ok, that's way better than "11 hours to the train station, 4 hours from the train station to the airport, and 2 more hours on a plane"
that's like 17 hours

15:33
oh when is this eclipse thing?
Man, League has come really far.
@GodEmperorDune depends
iirc like...
@GodEmperorDune For me, it apparently starts at around 11 maybe and peaks at 1.
awww, 2 hours
15:35
@Unionhawk /r/theydidthemonstermath
I'll probably go buy a box lunch somewhere and watch it from the roof of the parking garage.
@Yuuki Did you watch CLG/NV yesterday?
@StrixVaria I caught bits and parts of it throughout my flights home.
As a CLG fan, it was quite the rollercoaster.
NV really needs to do something about Seraph.

Q: Any way to quickly farm Gladio's Skill?

Fredy31My only trophy left is Gladio's Survival at level 10. Is there a way to quick farm it? Running from one end of the map to the other doesn't seem to work much. Any meals can boost Skill XP rate? Does riding on Chocobo count? Is there some ways to earn a multiplier of XP? Like do running around ...

I didn't notice much about how NV players did because I was having panic attacks about OmarGod.
cc @Yuuki @Wipqozn @Dragonrage
I do remember Seraph as Trundle solo-killing a tower/inhib because Darshan literally couldn't damage him.
@GodEmperorDune I like it
15:39
Everyone else on the team has been doing great. Lira's like the best jungler in NA right now, Nisqy is surging, Apollo's a great ADC, and Hakuho is underrated but still really good.
It's just that whenever NV loses, it's because Seraph completely loses toplane.
I've been considering playing Starcraft again, but then the community makes it sound miserable
The SC2 fanbase really hates their game
Play co-op
@Wipqozn To be fair, that's kinda true about every game.
Had to sign a permission slip for my kid to go outside today because of the eclipse. But school ends at 2:35pm, and the eclipse is at its peak at 2:24. So basically every kid is going blind when they get on the bus
15:41
Everyone who plays overwatch hates overwatch
this is a true fact
@Unionhawk I think this is just a fact of every blizzard game, wow players hate wow, hots players hate hots, etc.
@Sterno Do they like, close all the windows too?
@Yuuki Hakuho's Thresh was monstrous yesterday.
@TimStone In the school, yeah
The only Blizz games people actually like are Warcraft 3, SC Broodwar and Diablo 2
15:42
NV botlane just crushed CLG botlane pretty much every game.
@Sterno That's some serious commitment to the bit
@StrixVaria Yeah, there's a reason why Apollo's S/S+ on a lot of ADC tier lists.
Apollo and Hakuho are really good.
Which kinda goes to show how bad Seraph is when Apollo/Hakuho win lane most of the time, Nisqy either goes even or comes out ahead, and Lira's been considered the best NA jungler but NV still lose so many games.
@GodEmperorDune Actually, if you switch places with your double, it'll be seven years until you can come back.
Someone needs to slap the maintainer of unity on AUR
5gb ide, 10gb installed… requires around 20gb free space to upgrade
15:47
@Yuuki perhaps the decades implies how fast time flies when you are stuck in the moon
24 mins ago, by Yuuki
What is space? What is time? What is spacetime?
@Yuuki It depends on where you are I guess, the 2024 one is probably < 25% for the Northwest because it comes from the opposite angle
Your mom makes a localized eclipse every afternoon
Look at Australia down there hogging all the eclipses
@TimStone Hmm... I have a cousin in Australia that I could visit...
Those are all in the 2030s though.
15:55
If animals did go crazy during the eclipse I certainly wouldn't want to be in Australia of all places
For those not in the path of totality.
cc @GodEmperorDune @Wipqozn
hue
i do like a good eclipse pic
16:07
damn it bridge, this isn't the tab I meant to open
I blame @Unionhawk

Umm...
16:12
The GoT subreddit is getting stupid with stupid theories and stuff
I don't follow GoT at all but I know there's one involving time travel.
That's not the one I'm referring to specifically but I have heard and it's also really stupid but at least it's actually related
people are suggesting an inanimate object is alive right now
Apparently FFXV is coming to PC in 2018.
like the equivalent of a rock.
@BlueBarren To be fair, I'm sure <relatively important and fan-popular character who has since brutally died>'s corpse used to be alive.
I love how that description spoils nothing with GoT.
16:17
@Yuuki but this object was never alive and never will be alive?
a drop of water hits a prop and everyone loses their minds
"OMG GUYS IT MOVED, IT'S ALIVE" No the prop got wet because there was water in this scene
@BlueBarren which object?
@GodEmperorDune Longclaw
@BlueBarren lololol
@GodEmperorDune yup.
Put all the Valyrian steel weapons together. "With your powers combined, I am Captain Westeros". And then big explosion and everyone dies. As is apropos for GoT.
16:23
I honestly think the fans of GoT are stupider than the show
all people are doing now is complaining that there's almost no filler
who in their right complains that there's no filler? All people do is complain when there's filler
my aunt is reading all the leaked scripts and spoiling stuff for me left and right
RIP
I didn't watch this week's episode early because I have patience/don't care enough to look for it
i mean i don't like who has died this season and some of the plotlines but overall it is a pretty solid season
@GodEmperorDune It sounds like you don't have an aunt anymore.
@Yuuki haha
16:28
@TimStone so I should go back to Barcelona in 2026?
not looking forward to that all that much
though it sounds like a superior option to Lybia 2027
that's officially bigger than my main hard drive
FFXV isn't worth 1kb of disk space.
lmao got a work email saying "if you plan on watching the eclipse, please code it as personal time, not work time"
pls
@Avery cars don't push themselves you know
16:29
@Avery Probably for all those cutscenes.
Final Fantasy is a series that should still be distributed on storage devices.
@Unionhawk if I happen to look out the window while the eclipse is happening then what?
@StrixVaria oh snap
@BlueBarren Depending on how long you look out the window, you might go blind.
Actually maybe it is, how big is a high-res picture nowadays?
It's got some kind of pretty landscapes.
@Yuuki I'm already blind because I stared at your beautiful face for too long
16:31
If you're thinking "I should play FFXV", then what you should do is find some pretty screenshots of the games and look at those.
@Yuuki cartridges for ffxv would be huge
You've now enjoyed all enjoyable aspects of FFXV.
@BlueBarren That's more than a little creepy taken out of context.
@Yuuki shhh just take the compliment strokes your cheek
like
16:33
@BlueBarren mark it as work time because down with capitalism
even with the tiiny thingys they use for microsd cards it probably can barely fit to a switch cartridge
@Unionhawk and up with communism socialism!
@BlueBarren I like the red in your profile, comrade
@StrixVaria And it was still somehow better than FFXIII
@Sterno I liked FFXIII.
16:35
@Avery for the motherland our freedom!
I'm sorry.
I didn't like it as much as many of the other games in the series.
But I liked it enough to put it on the "like" half of the spectrum rather than "dislike", which is where FFXV is.
I think the last FF game I actually enjoyed was 9, and it wasn't all that great
Top down or GTFO is kind of how I feel about the series now
I honestly didn't mind the linearity of FFXIII. But given what I know about what turns you off gaming-wise, @Strix, I thought you would've hated the combination of enemy AoE attacks and uncontrollable party movement.
I know I technically played 9 but I have no actual memories of it.
@Yuuki I don't think I got far enough into the game for that to be a real issue.
16:37
And that alone would be enough to swing FFXIII straight towards dislike.
@BlueBarren I should stop reading communist materials because it's becoming harder to not turn jokes into serious discussions
@StrixVaria From what I've heard, I didn't get that far either.
@Avery communism brings up some fair and certainly worth while ideas

 This Is Fine

The news discussion offshoot of the Bridge. Stars reserved for...
@Yuuki There's a lot to dislike, game-design-wise, about the Final Fantasy series now looking back.
16:39
it's perfect on theory
@Avery exactly this
@GodEmperorDune this is what nasa had been hiding
@Arperum I feel like playing Civ V
OH GOD I LOOKED AT IT AND NOW MY RETINAS ARE BURNING
16:42
rekt
how many eclipses have you survived so far @sterno?
All of them, duh
@KevinvanderVelden Why V? Why not VI? it sounds like a good plan, but I have to cook and do dishes.
err VI
That one
I don't know if I even have V
https://t.co/4AeCDeP8Ju
But yes, after the doing of cooking of food and dishes?
16:44
Flat Earth Facebook, on the eclipse
I also seriously need to buy a functioning dishwasher, the nonfunctional one I have is rather nonfunctional.
You shouldn't insult yourself like that
XIII and XV make it seem like Square values character fanservice more than anything else these days.
@KevinvanderVelden I should have seen that coming.
Because even with all of their faults, the characters in those games certainly have a lot of fanservice appeal.
16:46
https://t.co/VefSvA9lNP
@Yuuki XV had the most boring characters of any Final Fantasy game IMO. Even more boring than the nameless personality-less heroes in FF1.
Fanservice appeal in this case being visual appeal.
IMO, Lightning is a pretty flat character who didn't get much development in FFXIII from what I recall despite being the main character. But I definitely have seen a lot of fanart of her posted in various gaming subreddits.
I don't think I agree. If they were going for fanservice why would they make a main cast of only male characters?
Because girls exist.
Yes, that is true, but they make up probably less than half the market for the game.
16:51
And also because they put all of their male fanservice budget into Cindy.
I hated Cindy from the instant I encountered her.
Oh God, I forgot about Cindy
the main crew of ff15 is pretty much fanservicy at least for me
Every time she showed up I was legit uncomfortable
I recall the multiple articles about the director emphatically defending Cindy's design when she was first revealed.
Did any of that stuff pan out?
16:55
Part of doing adequate fanservice is having a variety so that everyone has at least one character they can latch onto.
I just said Square was leaning heavily on fanservice. I didn't say they were any good at it.
Fair enough!
I mean, there is something though
> Just a few reminders for tomorrow…Meet the Teacher Night starts at 6:30pm in my classroom. You will be in my classroom for 30 minutes for a presentation covering the curriculum and procedures in Kindergarten. Then, we will be going to the computer lab to set up a Canvas observer account and get your child’s device on the CCS network Wi-Fi. It is important that if you plan to send your child with a device to school, you bring it tomorrow so that we can get it on the Wi-Fi. Side note: We will not be using devices in Kindergarten until about October once our routines and procedures are in pl
16:56
like, why are we labeling every character as fanservice
that's... an interesting warning...
A) Why the hell do Kingergartener's need devices?
B) Why are you telling me about how to decide if I need one AFTER the day where you have to have it set up?
byod on kindergarten...
@Avery Well as far as Lightning goes, she certainly didn't develop as a character when I played the game.
And I had to turn off the audio whenever Vanille used her Eidolon.
ooh yeah ff13 was... eh
