It's part of the christian religion, old testament, to give your church money.
And yeah, they pay people to be from the Opus Dei.
IT'S A SECT, AND THE STATE PAYS THEM
10% of what you make, but that was back when the priests really did have nothing and your money was supporting them
And sorry I'm angry
there was a HUGE blow up about that in my mom's old cult church
have some coffee or tea wichever you preffer
They were asking for more than a lot of us could give them because they stuck tot he 10% and told us to give until it hurt and just have faith that God would somehow give us groceries

It's part of the christian religion, old testament, to give your church money.
in caps but not in caps But I'm not christian! I don't even belive in A god
Yeah, I know. It should only be the congregation that has to pay
I just meant - paying your church is a normal part of that culture if you go to one
I'm not 100% ateist tho, i'm.. the middle, forgot the name
if god was real there wouldnt be so much S!@T in the world
agnostic
They may or may not be something there somewhere doing something
They, in return, are NOT supposed to get rich off it
That, thanks don'tusemymousetoturn
๐
But are instead supposed to use it to support themselves, repair the church, etc.
The problem is that no one is doing the right t hing anymore
And the worst thing is that I like churchs because they're beatiful >.<
I like the architecture :p
But OH MAN you guys
Alaska doesn't have the ancient architecture of old churches sadly
it's all.... "modern"
Europe does, because well, we're older?
Back when I first decided I was pagan and started wearing the symbol of my religion which is a pentagram okay - My friend Chris who is Catholic took me to midnight mass for Christmas and I forgot to take my necklace off
Well the religions kind of originated around Europe-Middle East
America didn't have them for thousands of years after
Then, when we conquer america and obliterate the native, we instaurate our religions there
Yeah, there are still some beautiful cathedrals on the east coast though
St. Pats in Connecticut is one of them
I've seen a few but not many :p
And we did our best, just as Reaper:
Kill Kill Kill
Which is... where I went. And you shoulda seen the looks on these priest's faces
You had the necklace? xD
O>O
yup!
Forgot to take it off
I would have to be honest if I'd remembred since Wicca is ALL ABOUT respecting other religions
But I forgot
I used to live in Boston, Massachusetts and they had really neat architecture everywhere in certain sections
and then the priests were trying to burn holes into me with their eyes and I was ike 'whaaaat OH OOPS SORRY HOLY DUDES'
hahaha
'GUESS YOU'RE KINDA MAD THE HOLY WATER I PUT ON MY FOREHEAD DIDN'T SET ME ON FIRE'
2 Gods steph? ๐ฎ
Nah, for ME it's more like... there's a thing up there called Deity and it takes many shapes and answers to whatever you call it
And the only important thing is to have faith in something at all
I don't trust orginzed religion
I don't have faith
That's alright, too. Faith isn't for everyone.
And I believe that organized religions are what caused the whole mess, because they're abusive and oppressive and have seriously lost their way
Light would tell us all to burn our gods. XD
(she actually sets a statue of a god on fire in Lightning Returns and talks about what she'll do when her gods fail her)
(favorite scene ever)
In my belief, (just to be clear I don't believe in much of anything) if there is a "deity", it's the universe itself because its power is so vastly superior to us humans, it doesn't matter. It can change its own laws of physics whenever it wants, and we could explode at any point in time. It's so powerful it might as well be a god, but I acknowledge it isn't really one. :p
Actually a LOT of the stuff that I involves asking 'the universe' for stuff. X
But to be honest it's even kind of like The Force. There IS an energy current out there that runs through everything. I draw on that when I use Reiki, but I think it's The Universe too, etc etc
But maybe the truth is that there is no God at all and that many of us still believe in one because we have to have something to go to to help us make sense of the world. shrug emoji
A lot of people find praying to be a form of meditation, and I fully see why people turn to a religion, especially for help.
iplay games for that
So I try not to look down on those people. It's the places they go to sometimes, that are corrupt and lead them down paths of intolerance and hatred and all of that
It's just when it interferes and*, you know... killing people... it becomes kinda bad. And I think the majority of people understand that :p
Games are a good place to go for that, too! And somtimes, oddly, certain TV series can help too.
i dont mind people being religious as long as they dont try to convert me or shame me for being who i am etc
pretty much
Like I find anything Star Trek helps me handle the world. Different captains from different shows have different perspectives that help me out.
Someone said Star Trek
lol
Yup!
I saw it out of the corner of my eye. ๐
maths has more or less been a thing for me. I try to convert every single thing into an equation I can, how much time it will take to do X, etc.
Kate Mulgrew, my hero.
Captain Picard teaches you things like moral high ground and facing the consequences of your actions, being the bigger person. Sisko teaches you to believe in yourself and others, etc etc
Janeway is there to give you that Stern Look so that you check yourself before you rek yourself
Yup
that's the 'mom is disappoint, get your crap together' look
The best thing about Star Trek though is that Starfleet itself seems to be kind of agnostic religion wise and yet look at all these decent people who fight for what's right and do the right thing and try to better themselves
It's almost like it doesn't matter at all and we all have a common goal and can work together
maths teaches me quite a bit of that actually, in a philosophical term, as far as trying to better myself
it's kind of a thing that counter-acts itself almost, because... nothing is perfect but yet maths is the theory of perfection
and you strive to be perfect so that you keep going and going. You try to be better every time, you try to see how close you can get. You never truly reach that perfection, because if you could, you'd just stop somewhere. :p
that's why in my opinion so many organised religions have a "symbol" of perfection, ie Jesus, God, etc.
You want to get yourself to that perfection point as much as you can, but it's always pretty far away. If there wasn't any drive to do so, we'd never get anywhere. ๐
I can't handle math at all so I guess I'll stick to starfleet XD
That's an interesting theory KB
Well as far as the actual mathematical portion, I recognise where things are in the every day world that I observe that I can try to apply them, ie calculating how much time it'll take to do X, how many gallons of gas I need to go somewhere, etc.
by no means am I a genius in maths though. I like making fractals and stuff, but I'm bad at probability.
it's kind of why I like playing WoW quite a bit... being able to calculate things and figure out the world is intriguing when you don't have the actual source code of the game
Yeah, then you've got people like me who can't see math anywhere at all and stumble on simple equations and can't always remember what 2 plus 2 even is XD
it's also interesting to me the player-driven concept of what "endgame" truly is, in, again, a philosophical way.
:p
well it seems to be "get the biggest numbers for class X" more or less
titanforged everything, etc.
well there's that too. :p
because how do you "beat" the game if you haven't collected absolutely everything?
become passable at dps in LFR and get evryone to 110, finish all the class content, and then farm appearances basically
238 mounts, 280 toys
See I learned back in Vanilla that an MMO never 'ends', so you have to set goals.
751 pets
I have goals for my characters and when Ir each them I move on
wow that is a LOT of pets
I'm hitting the near 600 mark myself
but 751, @_@
I mean I'm not a raider, I don't have full titanforged armour, etc. I just try to complete a class questline, get some LFR transmogs, and have a good time
Yar, kb, same here for the most part
something else I've been trying to do is add a bit more..... "soul"... into the game? a bit more uh.. "character"?
not sure the word
for me its about making my characters look good and getting to a spot with them where I feel satisfied I did my best
But I think that's where you and I differ - for me the soul came first. XD
but like this addon for example: https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/talentart
I made this as an effort to bring back dumb talent tree artwork
I use that one!
Same ๐
yeah that's my dumb thing ๐
My aim has been to bring back those. They used to be around all the way up until the end of Cata / beginning of Pandaria
(it just never would have occurred to me to go looking for an addon that did that)
well nobody made one
Yeah. And you've seen me in here talkin before about the things they've removed that have made the game feel more empty.
you can add them in something like kgpanels or (soon) WeakAuras, but... it's better to have something separate
well the GlyphUI is something I want to bring back too
let me see if I can find an old screenshot
On the right, I would have the glyphs in the bags available. On the left, I would have the spells that you can use for your glyphs
it'll take a LOT of work though because it requires me learning the ENTIRE code for the talent frame, both current and old (Cata)
and I've been busy with other projects I want to get done first
why did they remove the glyph UI anyways
not... sure... lol
Because they changed how glyphs work
You apply the glyph directly to the spell and the glyphs are consumable now
So they said 'this ui isn't gonna work out'
maybe they ran out of time or resources to make a new UI for it. I wish they had though, a LOT of us were confused when legion shipped
I had to comfort a friend of mine who thought she'd look like an ugly chicken forever
Poor girl.
I'd need to figure out the maximum number of affected spells for each class first because anything :p
She was honest to god gonna switch specs and she's never been anything but balance since wrath
Yeah, I mean I think you're gonna have a hell of a time getting them to look the same as the pattern that they have there on the glyph ui
There's probably more spells than that? Maybe?
there's no way I can get that same exact pattern
Knowing you though you'll do something cool.
she hates the moonkin lookthat much eh?
https://s.blogcdn.com/wow.joystiq.com/media/2008/08/aabt_glyphssample.jpg
this was another design in early game I think
LAGGGGG
Yar
and another: https://i.imgur.com/fAnHGEk.png
yeah :p
but it'll take some finagling I think
I believe this is the file I have to go off of atm
Can't you just DL a LK server and datamine this art?
If I can replicate the artwork myself, I should be able to get the addon down. I'd also need help coding it though probably
and probably
it's a lot of work to do that though since so many classes are dynamic
Meaning?
I might as well design my own artwork with individual pieces that have the ability to change and be taken apart for classes with more or less glyphs than others
let me check totalRP quick, they have the paper backgrounds provided by blizz
stuff like this (top left corner) etc.
they use all blizz artwork I think
I think so, yeah
ye boyo
we got an offer on the house but now we have to wait for the bank to approve ๐
That could take a while, lots of red tape.
My sister ran into all kinds of crap while thy were trying to close on their house
well I hope we manage to approve it before March 2nd and such or whatever so the bank doesn't auction it
since that's the auction date >.>
They may halt those proceedings if they know there's an offer
idk much about bank stuff so I'm kind of out of the loop beyond "this is the date" etc. ๐
we're selling it for like... $300k I think? or something? (or trying to)
and we keep supposedly about 30k to move
reason we lost the house was because housing crisis, etc. etc.
"look at this cheap house. Wanna buy it?" so we buy it for that price, move in, mortgage goes to insane prices after, and we've paid a crazy amount total so far because of it
Wow, that really sucks. :(
idk how it all works still tbh. It's all confusing so I might be saying something wrong
but essentially, yeah.
ONTOP OF THAT
we lost our healthcare because of driving through Canada
they thought we "moved out of states" or something
and ofcourse because it's private insurance, the something million dollars we had in insurance bailed on us >.>
At least NOW we qualify for medicaid because Reasonsโข
so lately I've been able to get dental checkups quick and get a new pair of glasses, etc.
hopefully, if nobody slashes the current plan, I can finish up and get my Wisdom teeth removed soon before they potentially cause trouble. The dentists said they probably won't because they haven't grown much, but they potentially could because my bottom teeth have become crowded, etc.
I've personally never felt pain in my teeth or jaw from them.
evening everyone
huh. It is the evening. :o
2:33 am
EVENING >:C
for you:P
if I move to Seattle, I don't think my timezone will change much. They're only an hour ahead of me I think
i live in the netherlands
si
Nederlands :D
@random mantle You haven't happened to have heard of Arjen Anthony Lucassen by any chance, have you? :p
http://www.arjenlucassen.com/content/
noes
He's one of my favourite musicians. Was just wondering. :p
does he live in the netherlands? ๐
I think so, or at least he was born there
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9U4L4B0fEA
Example of stuff he's worked on
There's a lot, but this is one of my favourites.
its like musical rock
mainly progressive metal
ye
it's basically like an opera ish
opera rock scifi
like star wars ๐ but in music
pretty cewl ๐
aewsome XD
ty for introducing me to this art:D

His entire Ayreon albums basically go through an entire storyline type of thing with time travel and such
it's pretty cool
I sometimes get a little mixed up with Ayreon / Arjen pronuncation though. :p
I'll go like ayren / aryen.
Also I like pretty much all the music that's ever come from this channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/rpoland/videos
very different genre though
since it's a record company, not an actual band
mainly accoustic guitar stuff though
one of my favourite songs they've posted was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO8CDIT3Jn8
also this (sorry about spam again heh)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSnWhsmlGec
There is a rooster outside in this neighborhood
I don't know why. I do know it's ILLEGAL
And that it keeps cocka doodle doing at all hours of the day
It's 6:41 pm you dumb rooster. shut up
sorry but that's hilarious ๐
It is though XD
1pm? COCKA DOOOOOOO 3pm? COOOCKAAAADOOOOOOOO 6pm? Like mr rooster you are SO CONFUSED okay
my neighbours have a rooster but it never screams out
actually I wonder what that is to them
like think of that bird as a human. That human is essentially screaming at the top of its lungs every morning and evening
it's like when geese are flying and they just scream at the top of their lungs in formation
that'd be like if humans ran in formation and screamed at the top of their lungs
So it'd be a flashmob?
But knowing that about the rooster near you
I am very certain now that our rooster has Issues(tm)
If that's true
Then this poor rooster is Forever Alone
And needs some female hen company that I cannot provide it
A rooster crows because he has an internal clock that helps him anticipate sunrise. Like all birds, roosters sing โ or crow โ in a daily cycle. Almost all animals have daily cycles of activity known as circadian rhythms that roughly follow the cycle of day and night.
its just a bird call
okay but since he crows every hour at least three times
I'm sticking to my guns on the fact that this rooster is Confused and Has Issues XD
Well he's not MY rooster and he's illegal so XD
owned, by one of the neighbors around here
I don't know who owns him >.>
goodbye illegal rooster
XD
then just call animal control
I mean I don't need to blow the whistle on these guys and their rooster, I just think it's funny as hell
are you in a city?
Yeah, there's an ordinance you're supposed to ask the neighborhood if it's alright to have a rooster first
And the rooster's supposed to be kept in a backyard area with x amount of hens or something
IDK if that's happening, we only hear the rooster
but it's impossibe for me to know which yard the noise is coming from =|
There's a good 50 houses in hearing range here, sound carries far with zero trees and no winds in the desert
but if you call animal control and say someone near me has a loud rooster, they will at least come out and expect
yep
There's no way to know if the poor guy is even being well taken care of.
if its illegal it probably isnt well taken care of
=|
poor rooster
y tho
no problem
(:
btw it hides my username but it's /u/keyboardturn :p
lol
omgggg y'all this chicken just shredded perfectly and it smells SO good
OKay so there used to be a way to change your nickname on a server, did they get rid of that?
it appears to be a toggle, probably by admins
yeah, I was just reading the help article. oh well XD
I was just gonna change mine to Granny Steph
because lol
But it makes sense they wouldn't let you change it actually, in case of trolling or whatever
You can change username though. ID number stays the same.
I don't want to be granny steph everywhere XD
I know, but I mean it's somewhat pointless to disallow nickname changes if a troll can just change their username anyway.
It's likely the admins didn't know the nickname permission was added as an option though
._.; so I just found out today that apparently we won't be getting the $30k we're supposed to to be able to move out but instead $6k, if the bank even approves. Well, mortgage company more specifically, and the mortgage company is committing ililegal foreclosure but the department that rats these companies out was kind of destroyed by Trump so...
looks like I'll be homeless in 5 days
So if I'm unable to respond around then, that's pretty much why

Unfortunately Jeff is still a bit better.
Hearthstone community needs a dinoflask.
Jeff is... Jeff
this is true
anyone a metroid player?
I like speedruns of the game but I'm not good at it at all
there's a really good review series by The Geek Critique on the series. Makes Super Metroid sound even cooler than the speedruns already make it look.
lol this hearthstone brawl (decks are randomized)
enemy plays small time recruits
...draws nothing
The last time I played metroid was Super Metroid on my old SNES but I loved it and 100%'d it complete with printing up gamefaq ascii maps
In fact our whole family got involved. Mom played navigator, my sister sometimes did the grind work. Then she's hand me the controller when the game got too hard. XD
Dad watched. He wasn't much into the games except he was the only person in the house who was allowed to play the mario game. That controller was his. I didn't take over mario playing until ... marioworld I think it was>
i was also the only zelda player
And I played this game with this guy who goes through shooting dudes in hoods to save his girlfriend who's always further and further into various stages of undress and man that was NOT a game a teenager should have been playing
But everyone cheered when I got to the boss stage, so hey, I'll take it.

I don't think so, at least not if it's a mistake
Usually they're just marked DOA, you send them back and get a new one without shipping charges, etc.
happens all the time in generic IT jobs
though there was this one video I saw where the mailman threw a TV (I think it was flatscreen) over a fence that was all caught on camera. ๐
I'm sure he's lost his job
and paid fines for it

I don't think this was the video, but crap like this gets you fired.
Why is it always raining in Skyrim!
It shouldn't be unless there's a mod doing that. O.o
I have lots mods lol But theres just always more rain than sun : (
could be that lol
you upset the raingods
lol

I am using Vivid Weathers, I think its similler
could be mistaken though
I wanna play as Vol'jin but nobody wants to play as him or make him a mod. :^(
hoping SK64 comes out soon for SSE to see all the new shiny mods that'll eventually come out though. New engine and stuff to take advantage of. :D
uhh is it bad if the plastic around the connect thing of your screen is gone

VGA cables?
It gives the NPCs too much freemdom and shit like this happen. Poor Janessa
uh I don't think it hurts it much as long as wires aren't exposed, etc.
it's only plastic
ah oki
You'll be fine
probably not...? I think? :p
lol really quick, yeah because speed will save you from electric shock
If I'm not mistaken, a VGA cable is simply a small board + wires, metal part should simply be casing
๐
There are certain cables that are all metal
Aerial Cables for example
Even Coaxel cables
Not everything is covered in plastic
i only know about VGA and HDMI
I don't mess with VGA cables anymore because nothing supports them. :p
nothing made today anyway
you'll find it on most 1080p screens themselves but newer computers likely won't have them unless the card supports it
laptops are usually unlikely to have them because of how big they are :p
at least mine doesn't for example
I just got HDMI and micro-HDMI
if you save $1 a day you can buy one in several years. :^)

ive got internship atm
tuesday to friday
6 am to 2 pm

y tho
yeah much better one than the last place i was at
they got mad at me for failing or being too slow
go there to get experiene
get angry for learning
:^)
same here :D
kinda
I just start getting sassy
I don't really get "offended" more so than I just kind of go silent or I start trolling.
i start getting upset
because here people have a saying that you have to try better than your best
not that I don't troll to begin wtih so don't take that as an indicator that I'm always handling negativity. I mean I pretty much am (who isn't lol)
uh. idk if there's a saying here. The good ol' murican saying is like "Give it 110%" or something
its just a stupid saying imo
beceause everyon reacts diffrently in those situations
I always try to just barely get past with as little effort as possible. :D
but yeah I don't have any "sayings" really. I mean I really wasn't taught any that really stuck with me that well.
usually because they uh... break under logic sometimes.
very true
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. And if it's worth doing right and you can do it right the first time, you should.
Don't be like my in laws with 6 tiles of a bathroom wall painted blue, half of it scratched off, because they started the project without sanding first, realised the paint wouldn't stick, and then never scratched it all off either.
Do your best. Not for them. But for YOU. Because when you don't do your best work. You know it. And you will always know it.
And as long as it's YOUR best, it doesn't matter. Even if your best means failure for now
'cause yeah, mistakes, we're all human, we don't have all the same skills, still learning, etc. But always always try.
Sometimes I fail at that when I get too bitter. =|

Hello
Watched that movie last night and had to explain to two girls in the bathroom afterwards about Laura.
One time when it's great to be a comics geek XD
Also I am not sure why pot would be the devil's lettuce, it doesn't even look anything LIKE lettuce, and cabbage is clearly more evil because it resembles lettuce and then you bite it and it's just awful
It's as much like satan as painting turnips orange and giving them to those virmin in MOP
poor guys. turnip is not carrot. it's bitter and awful :(
๐ I'm just joking. I've seen it called Devil's Lettuce before so many times.
We have some plants in Alaska I hate called Devil's Club and it grows everywhere. The berries will make you incredibly sick if you eat them. I like to call it Devil's Lettuce tho
Almost everything else that is edible you can eat safely though.
I know I know I'm just like... clearly cabbage is the ultimate sin though XD
I want to watch Logan
But
I live alone and my gf is 900km away xD
And I've error 404 in friends
you know you can go to a movie by yourself right?
I actually didn't WANT to go to this one, my husband dragged me.
Mainly because my brain wiring makes it so I hate any manner of change, and since they have been very open in the trailers about how this movie was gonna be gritty and 'not a happy ending' I was like... do not want
But then I went anyway and it was really really good
I wish there were cinemas near me with original dub subbed
I don't like spanish dubs...
that's funny because there's actually a lot of spanish in this film XD
Razรณn de mรกs
that's the only spoiler I'll give though
Er.. w8
IDK how to say xD
I mean spanish dub with spanish characters on an english movie
Welp, sometimes doesn't end well
meh... waste of money imo. Hope it ends up being worth it.
^
possibly, but then again I had money sitting around. Savings from a bunch of things over the last several months.
that said, I got that in the morning. So far, it's been worth it.
I prefer a ps4 right now
Switch only have one good game right now and it's more expensive than a ps4
true but I'm going to be making use of that portability very frequently. There was a reason I bought "desktop replacements" for a while.
PS4 was something I wanted to get, but I never got around to it.
I'm not saying you shouldn't have bought a Switch, I just say I didn't because see above
That's fair enough.
It might be better to wait either way. Personally, I have....reasons for this rather rash purchase.
This coming from someone who waits months if not years for a game to become a good value proposition.
I hope Switch be a success but I don't think Nintendo has been making the right decisions
But I'll watch very close that console
thinking back, my issue with Nintendo is one of litigation and things within that realm.
or largely that, anyways.
so basically, I warn people not to LP nintendo games ๐
LP?
let's play
youtube videos?
and then there's the AM2R thing I mentioned the other day.
Mostly. It's basically a case of Nintendo trying to get a cut of the monetization pie for let's plays, which may or may not be covered by fair use.
They attempted to be very aggressive about it in 2013. They then rolled out a system where they did take a cut on Nintendo stuff on Youtube the following year.
I forgot the exact numbers but it cuts deep.
That's only one of quite a few things they've done.
The issue is one of conflict for me. I like rewarding well-made games, but Nintendo is Nintendo. My compromise is to make light of their faults to people when I can and buy only the most exceptional games from them.
AKA, part of why I didn't just preorder stuff immediately.
Actually, I was thinking about getting Mario Maker when its release was iminent. Guess why I didn't lol...
Why?
Nintendo is really harsh on rom hacking.
Oh, that
And around the time the game came out, they went after quite a few Super Mario World rom hack videos.
Among...other things.
Also TAS.
TAS is sublime
I love TAS so much. Amazing what people can do with frame advance and precise inputs.
And Nintendo don't understand that the same ppl they are going after is the ppl who makes free adverstiment to them..
That would be why there was huge outcry over the LP thing in 2013
evening everyone
even TB stepped out of the bias booth (he dislikes Let's Plays in their "current", personality-driven form) and said "no, what Nintendo is doing is really bad. It hurts them and it hurts players and it hurts the industry and here's why."
Before going on a 25 minute rant about why lol.
hi
Japaneses are.. bad on -outside Japan stuff-
Possibly, but it might be something much more empirical than that.
I mean, I can argue Koreans are not much better on the whole foreigners and foreign concepts thing too.
Maybe, I almost don't buy or know anything made in korea besides BDO
Well, let's just say their views on contractual obligations are very....loose.
Aka, be very careful teaching English in Korea.
Lol
There's also a sense of pride and general disrespect for western culture.
Well, in some ways.
lmao what is this
I see Blizz decided to respond to all those requests to add a SC hero
the abilities and talents are in the top comment
another builder-style character. I approve of this.
Abathur on top of Probe
actually legit seems like a more reliable gazlowe
When Photon Cannon damages an enemy Hero, its cooldown is reduced by 1.25 seconds.
lmao
neat talent
dose anyone know if star citizen has been released
Xbox One: Titanfall... Halo... Gears of War...
I mean, come on... biased graphics lol
no I don't think it has "Hotness"
Titanfall is not exclusive
and halo 5 is garbage
we're talking about new games anyway
pulls out Devotion
Titanfall 2 yea, which I thought was Xbox only...
halo wars 2 is garbage
I'm not making any claims as to their quality, just sayin' ๐
Oh Titanfall is exclusive to Xbox as far as console's go anyhow. But yea, can be played on PC
well if it only ran on Windows it could be a Microsoft exclusive.
Evidently that was only for the first Titanfall though, Titanfall 2 is on everything*
arguable that it has some comparisons to Overwatch.
Are you saying that Pyro isn't an excellent husbando?
well when they finlly add hats it will just be tf2
only if they make emotes lethal
lol yeah they should do that
too bad ps4 community is worse then xbox community
lol thats saying something
then again i played eveonline
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qUNFnjmP4o
and i got a campain for players named after that
xbox community does stuff like celebrating games shutting down and being the last players online before its gone
it will happen to wow oneday
ps community celbrates going 2 months without having their servers shut down or being hacked and having c.c.s leaked
xbox community has large communitys like rooster teeth and xbox achievements
ps has ??
I'm not up to date on this conversation but I saw a logo for horizon: zero dawn and i love that game okay
Quick question for anyone, looking for feedback, is there anything else WoW related you'd like to see on our Calendar widget?
https://www.stanza.co/timeline/zam-wow#/v1/
that looks like a good spread of events to me!
I like that it includes things like wowhead weekly and related cross-game promotions, etc.
Okay, it has all the in-game stuff plus I added things like LFR Wings opening, Wowhead Weekly, the cooking stream will be added when dates are settled on and the "For Azeroth" promotion... that kind of stuff. If you ever think there's something else that should be added feel free to suggest it in #wowhead-feedback-support or PM me. ๐
You can sync it with your own Google (or other) calendar if you want as well and/or see it towards the bottom of the home page and/or most database pages.
Actually
Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet.
(I put a recommendation in #wowhead-feedback-support)
thats just freaky
I wonder if they do that in movies when, I dunno, some superhero with telekensis makes a helicoptor hover. Gotta be cheaper than special effects? ๐
dude
lol yoda lifting the xwing out of the water
Wait a I won a prize from the wowhead weekly? D:
(But missed it)
I was doing errands. >:c
oh no :(
I left like right before the stream ended lol
Today has been hectic lol. I had to drive my brother to the DMV to get his permit. Then I drive back and got stuck in my driveway, then I finally got up and found out the wrench for the propane tank is missing, and if I tried the tools I had then I'd strip the head of the nut. ._.
Oh man what a day you're having
can't really have heat for the house or hot water without it so... ๐
My dad went out to get more propane tho. Hopefully he's able to find a wrench and take off the nut so we can replace it.
I think the worst part is we literally can't get a plow here for the driveway because it'd cost too much. ._.
wtf your house heat and water heater run on propane tanks?
the little gas grill ones?
those are so expensive D:
well we have fireplaces but they're very poorly designed and don't work... >.>
don't work well* rather
they heat up the main living room and that's about it. If you try to put more wood in they billow out smoke
so yeah we basically run on Hank Hillโข
Alaska really is the arse end of america isn't it
Basically lol
it'smore the rural areas
like where I am
it's painful because you can't walk to a job or bike to it or anything, etc.
everything requires a car, so... ._.
I mean my sister's house is on a lake back east and they do have septic systems instead of real plumbing and well water instead of city water, but at least she still has regular heating XD
To a lot of people, it sounds jarring to have to hear these kind of "horror stories" that are average every day life lol
Connecticut is all Oil heat. I guess that's kind of similar
Well I'm used to the idea that you can't walk to work or bus to work
my 'hometown' isn't near anything at all. If you don't have a car your choices of job are basically that you hope the family owned pizza place down the road needs waitresses
because it's that, the bank, or the pharmacy. those are your choices
and it's a 2 mile walk
but yeah man you're gonna love Seattlle
well the thing is all the jobs that pay well are in Anchorage (I live 10 miles outside of Wasilla). Anchorage is about 55 miles away from me so it's about 110 miles each day to go to a job. ._.
The ones in wasilla are all minimum wage trash jobs that nobody really wants... I mean you could work there but the amount it pays barely breaks even for gas and bills. So it's literally more worth it to drive 3 or so hours a day or maybe get stuck in rush hour traffic than it is to have to work in Wasilla. Unless you can get one of the special jobs in Wasilla, but those are very rare.
our minimum wage is also like... 8.75 atm? It was raised by the federal law I think a little while ago
like just this year
9.75* now. mybad. :p
Washington has like 11 USD minimum wage and their cost of living is immensely lower
If I had to bike a mile or even 10 miles to a job in a temperate area rather than drive 50 or something, I'd do it. .-.
Oh yeah. I mean to be real honest, for a while finding a job in that area was REALLY hard because when BOEING caughs the entirety of the western coast line gets pneumonia
so when I got out of school in 01, I couldn't get one single job, not even a minimum wage one. Because all the people they laid off from boeing took up all of those jobs, and it was a wasteland. So the job availability is still kinda sketchy sometimes
But there's a gazillion businesses within spitting distance even in the suburbs so you're bound to find something now.
for a little while that first year I got a job at a candle store in a mall - it was just a holiday gig. But it was a quick 5-10 min bus ride in and back. SO much more convenient than anyting in rural CT
._. Yeah... the jobs here are pretty scarce. It's a mixed bag because you can get a job at like a Pizza place 10 or something miles away, and I mean great if you can. But the problem is really in order to live here, you need to get a well-paying job. Food costs a lot, propane costs a lot, gas costs a lot.
On the upside, tomorrow I should hopefully have my AddOn released that I've been working on for like a month and a half or so. :p
What addon is that?
huh?
OH
he's been working forever on an addon that whispers voice files to you based on your artifact
because why should frost dk's and shadow priests have all the fun?
nite all
nite
:o I always wondered how those were made
The hornet creeps me out really bad though. I never realised how "scared" I was of them
Watching it take littles naps was funny. You never think of them as being able to enjoy sleep.
And my addon started off as a correction of code from the Corrupted Wannabe addon.
To reference earlier^^
Basically the original added the Corrupted Ashbringer sound files to Ashbringer. Just the entire item. Not the specific skins. Just having it equipped, and even that requirement was removed by the original author.
So I pretty much made it myself but it required either having the PvP skin (which also looks corrupted) or the Hidden skin for ashbringer. Then I took "good ashbringer" sound files and gave them to the non-corrupted skins. Then I expanded it to frost DK by giving Icebringer and Frostreaper (I think are the names) out of context quotes from the Arthas Lich King and the Bolvar Lich King (one for each sword). From there it kind of branched into making ad many similar things as possible and trying to keep it lore-friendly.... Besides the whole weapons whispering thing because a lot clearly don't do that. But I tried to take into account certain artifacts and if they consumed souls, if they were bound to essences of people, how they were forged and where they came from, etc.
Oh, that's neat, I was wondering how the Frost DK ones would work when that person mentioned them
So essentially I've had to research again and again where the origin of weapons are and their full story. And it's been tedious on top of learning how to code it all at the same time and having IRL issues getting in the way. (เธ'ฬ-'ฬ)เธ
but I'm estimating tomorrow I should have it ready for release.
It'll be a bit late tomorrow so in "two days" for a lot of people ahead of me. :p
That's neat. I'm a pretty big lore nerd myself and I play on an RP server, so I'm sure people who share that kind of hobby would enjoy it
Basically I have them proc off every spell cast at a very low proc chance. The original addon (corrupted wannabe) procced off of entering combat and only entering combat.
I mentioned earlier I wanted to find APMs for every class (actions per minute). It would help me even out and calculate if so needed the "adjusted proc chance" of every spec because some simply will proc far more often (arms warrior) than others due to the amount of proc chances in a shorter period of time.
ATM I have a baseline 1% / N proc chance where N = number of weapons.
Well number of voices. I think most I have is 2 or 3.
I'm hoping I get as much as I can lore friendly. The thing to remember is it's just an "addition" / headcanon thing added and that any voices used from the game aren't exactly a reflection of the weapons, such as Frost DKs don't literally have Bolvar and Arthas stuck in them.... But they kind of do at the same time (at least Arthas) because... Well... Frostmourne got hungry
Right, yeah
Especially if it's something that you can "opt" into if someone finds it a little jarring or something, or it's not their taste, it's not forced on them.
Others I just imagined their spirits were deeply tied to them (how Felomelorn is an heirloom of a family and therefore kaelthas kind of is bound to it... A little.)
Yeah they can be toggled
Both sounds and whispers can be toggled on and off
And I they're all per spec as well. :p
One of the things I initially struggled with until I fixed the code.
One of my future goals is to enable more non-artifact weapons into it as well as plugins, such as corrupted ashbringer as a transmog from Old Naxx / the physical item. Another thing eventually that I'll need to do is also finding the same transmog IDs for all the skins when 8.0 hits because all collected appearances convert to transmogs
And other features like proccing off kills will play special quotes, interactions with specific coordinates on the map (if you visit the tomb of sargeras or kill Illidan or something in BT)
But I need to do it all one at a time. (๏ธถ๏ธฟ๏ธถ)
lol
https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/5xeyz2/procd_90_extra_potions_of_prolonged_power_what/ Some people get lucky
That's crazy @distant topaz. Wasn't aware it could even proc in such a manner.
Anyone know what the pet battle discord was?
Ye that one is not working tried it already ๐
It's working fine for me
Are you unable to connect, or do you mean there's no activity on the server? @stable bridge
invite has expired
Yes, I posted the old link originally, but deleted it and replaced it with the correct one
Is it still displaying the old link for you?
PM sent
ty
Is it working for you now?
Sent you an invite, see if you get that
that weapon is pretty big
Noisy Cricket?
it probably still deals a surprising amount of damage
So i got a nintendo switch yesterday which is why i essentially didnt touch my computer
i am thoroughly enjoying it
Zelda is great
and so is 1-2 switch and fast rmx and snipperclips
1-2 switch is great when you have 4+ people
and the japanese-ness of the game is what makes it so lovable
So I think I should speak up here and mention that as Mercy I have taken down tracers, reins, bastions before they could live forever, genjis, and even hanzo and widow. So like, don't mock the little pea shooter. There have been days when I was gold on kills AND healing
Oh yeah and other mercies, lucios. Sometimes even my wife but pharah is so fast
you shouldnt line up the people you let run into death
I don't know what you mean there
Keeping the team alive is always a priority of course
you have taken down all the heros, by not healing. how would you kill people with peas?
'Pea shooter' is a term used to describe tiny guns
And as long as my team is alive I'll shoot whoever I want
Especially when those people are targeting me specifically and no one else is protecting me
Evening everyone
hi!
yo
Me
Why not?
