Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Oh, [chat] is a place on Earth.

    So, I've pretty much never not tipped, and I'm not reconsidering that policy, but in the moment I was really tempted to go back. I'm quite tolerant of small fuck ups, but I was quickly running the math in my head to see if I had the correct combination of paper and coin to take back the 32.00 I left for the 26.22 check, and leave something very close that second amount. And then I just shook my head and left the place.
    Was the waiter white?

    White duuuuuude. The chef's really nice, though.

    Poldy, why does philosophy suck so much?

    Because it's more about the argument and less about the answer?

    Or, you know, some douchebag not knowing what he's talking about as is the case in the Physics and Philosophy thread.

    Who this time? Is it worth reading a bit?

    Apparently, some physicist wrote a book about virtual particles (and I assume perturbation theory as a whole) and how there are all sorts of things that come from nothing and some philosophy of science doucher responded with, "Nuh uh! They didn't come from nothing! They came from the quantum field!", fundamentally exposing that he has no idea about quantum mechanics.

    Did you read MrMr's post?

    Dude had a PhD in physics and makes some good points.

    Hmm. I'm skeptical. David Albert appeared in What the Bleep Do We Know?, which is a giant fucking abomination of woo, so I'm pretty down on whatever he says.

    EDIT: Though his thesis was related to quantum perturbation theory, so I don't know. I'll have to give it a bit more of a read.

    But I understand just wanting to get the fuck out of there. That is some bullshit.

    I would've gone backed and grabbed it too. I used to wait tables and give a lot of leeway but between not knowing what's available and assuming a dine and dash?

    Fuck that noise fucker can learn to do his job before getting my money.

    If that woman's cleavedge made one more person pick the game up off the shelf, it was a net positive for microprose. And to be blunt, if taking her top off could have increased sales enough to get a sequel, I'd endorse it 100000% because I like playing great games.

    Do we have any spreadsheet people around?

    I've been messing with nethack again. The last time the obsession hit, I made a google docs spreadsheet for the prices of the various items. This time, I added a new sheet to keep better track of what does what on a given life; and to assist against mind flayers / amnesia and so on.

    While it's fairly easy to alt-tab over and type "identify" next to the scroll when I divine it, I'd like to do a bit more. I went ahead and created a data validation list, to allow for a drop-down menu, but I can't find any information on restricting the contents of that menu. At the moment, if I have a scroll or potion that isn't identifiable by its price, I have to swap sheets and figure out, manually, what the options are. Which is kind of slow.

    For example, there's a scroll in the shop that costs 150 gold. I type 150 into the spreadsheet for that scroll, and then click on the drop-down, at which point it displays only those scrolls which sell for 150.

    Does that make sense? More importantly, is it possible?

    it's pretty simple: if you make a glory hole in a box that has a cat in it, and you fuck the cat through the hole, it's like there are two slits!

    "schrodinger" is actually just a bastardization of the common phrase "throw a dinger in 'er", which means to fuck, obviously, and is usually used to refer to particularly odd sex acts like bestiality and putting your penis in a jar of peanut butter.

  • Premier kakosPremier kakos Registered User, ClubPA regular
    So, I'm going to post again since no one seemed to see my last post about it. I got the replacement of my Mass Effect M-8 Avenger replica. The replacement was broken in almost the same exact way as the first.

    Do we have to console you twice as much since it happened twice, or just as much as last time since it is the same thing all over again?

    I will not be able to take _J_ seriously as a human being until he admits that the pineal gland is not the seat of the mind.

    There are people, among us, walking around without pineal glands, living their happy lives, mindedly.

    They are probably tired though because they don't have any melatonin.
