Doesn't seem to do anything obvious in gedit. I bet it silently deleted half my filesystem or something.

@ChaosTheEternal the AR never worked for me. I'd always get something about not being able to tell my orientation. I uninstalled after a couple of days
-
@Jaloopa Yeah, I never bothered with the AR. I just flicked the switch so it didn't do that. Problem is, I kept having to flick that switch (as well as the Sound and Music options) every time it hung, because it'd forget my settings.

The circuit breakers in the locked room beside the stage.
Well, you don't want just anyone to be able to shut off the circuits, right?
Did you ever get the problem with the lights fixed? (IIRC you said 4 gels or spots or something wouldn't come on.)

Is that something to do with the conspiracy theories about the Clintons having anyone who threatened their political power killed? Except Monica Lewinsky for some reason?

@ChaosTheEternal said in The Official Status Thread:
only a few days in and I see it's a massive grind fest where it would take me so long to get to a point where I could battle a gym
Depends on what's at the gym and what level the pokemon is/are. I spent a grand total of like 5 minutes so far and am at level 4, and it only takes level 5 to be able to fight at gyms.
As for the grind fest, well, welcome to the world of pokemon.

I just need to write like, 50 lines of C# as a demo for a coworker! I couldn't install the C# plugin for Eclipse either, I'm tempted to grab MonoDevelop or something
If you're willing to write the code in, say, Notepad or whatever, remember that you don't need VS to write or compile C#: the compiler's in your Windows directory (just not on the path) in %windir%\Microsoft.net\framework \v4.0 or whatever.

THEN WHY DID YOU LET ME INSTALL IT YOU PIECE OF SHIT?!
Are you suggesting Windows should maintain an up-to-date list of programs it won't let you install?
If you hit the Check for Solutuions button it'll take you to a page where you can download an update that fixes whatever the issue is, IIRC.

I didn't even know there were Express versions for VS2015. Isn't it community or paid versions now?
Community offers Professional's features for opensource or max five person projects. Express has less features, but is more free.

Also a bit questionable, as from what I could see, every Pokémon Gym in my area was a church.
The ones I've seen so far are restaurants.

@Jaloopa said in The Official Status Thread:

No, that she hasn't done anything wrong enough for them not to vote for her. (Based on experience, there's nothing that would stop a lot of them. Bear in mind that after Katrina, a Democrat House rep from Louisiana was caught with $90,000 in bribe money after he tried to get his police detail to help him pull the fridge from a partially flooded house...and the Dems in Congress stood by him. Although my favorite was the Massachusetts state rep who was in jail for assaulting his girlfriend, and when the token Republican contingent tried to strip him of his committee memberships, the Democrats fought to stop it. As far as they were concerned, he was still an upstanding member of their community. Just behind bars. I never heard how that turned out.)

@Jaloopa said in The Official Status Thread:

No, it's about how they got people from all over the world to give them money to keep their political machine in place until she could run for President.
@Jaloopa said in The Official Status Thread:

I guess you're trying to make Clinton critics sound crazy, but your ignorance makes you sound a bit deranged. Do you really think the corruption of the Clinton's is somehow controversial? It's completely accepted, though admittedly some only accept its fact, not accept it in the sense of being OK with it.

@FrostCat said in The Official Status Thread:
Depends on what's at the gym and what level the pokemon is/are.
Every gym that I could see from where I usually am (home and work) had level 15 and up people with CP 500+ Pokémon. And, I swear, I always saw the first fight as Jolteon, which helps when I'm drowning in Pidgeys.
Getting to level 5 was the easy part, minus the crashing issue, but it's getting high enough to be able to do anything else just feels like too much of a BS grind. I'd rather go back and play a Pokémon game that has an end, like I said earlier. Which I may go back and play Red or Fire Red (or Blue, or Leaf Green, or even Yellow, if I wanted to).

Oh, I thought you were using VS.
doing it wrong, that's different, etc. HTH, HAND.

Maybe it could check compatibility before installing? Does that really sound crazy?
-
@Jaloopa said in The Official Status Thread:

Once her name and what happened was out in public, there would hardly have been any reason to kill her. The people who the Clintons supposedly had killed--a number of people on that list had really tenuous connections--also supposedly had unreleased dirt on them.
-

Ah. Well, probably for the best you stopped?
I'm not even sure what CP are yet. I think the highest one I've caught so far as like 150 and most are 10-15.

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are the best in the series imo, apart from maybe X and Y (which have a plot! and cutscenes!)
-

Everywhere else I've seen that dialog, it does. Well, it does during the install, after you start running the installer. Because why would the OS check before then?
Can you imagine if there were a background process trawling your hard drive for incompatible executables? Lunix goons would freak. "Why is Microsoft snooping around in my hard drive?!"
-
@Jaloopa Going back upthread to check, no, my claim was that her followers believe that's the best her opponents can do.
-

No, just the ones who think they have people killed
-
@FrostCat said in The Official Status Thread:

I suggest when I go to Microsoft's website and I download an installer, the installer shoudl know what version of Windows I'm on and therefore whether or not it's going to be compatible before I endure the half-hour install process.
It ran fine so... wtf ever.

I didn't like Ruby/Sapphire much. Still worth it?
-
@Yamikuronue said in The Official Status Thread:

Ah. That was my favorite generation anyway before, because of how much it expanded the world. But this one features an enormous number of QoL improvements, more starters (after the game), all the legendaries ever, expanded story bits, and even more story stuff afterward related to Rayquaza. It's more than just a simple revamp.
-
@ChaosTheEternal Yar. Hence why I'm only interested in the collection part.

Did you try suggesting that to mswish@microsoft.com? Or billg@? Someone reads every single mail that goes to those addresses.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34673 doesn't list Windows 10 on the System Requirements section, FWIW:
Supported Operating System
Windows 7 Service Pack 1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows Server 2012
Windows 7 SP1 (x86 and x64)
Windows 8 (x86 and x64)

Windows Server 2012 (x64)
-
@Magus The difference is, I don't own Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire, X or Y. But I do own the ones I listed.
I also own Soul Silver, but it was a gift (and when I played it, I don't remember how, but I got a Mew which I ended up using as a HM dump, and lost interest before getting very far). I dunno, maybe Gold/Silver just had a weird focus on their gen of Pokémon so I never got a team I really liked.
I'd consider trying a newer one, just not sure which to try jumping into.
-

Yes, while running the installer, I meant. But hopefully before the giant pause that characterizes Windows installer / update action.

Gold/Silver are really popular, but I never liked them.

ORAS has more in it, XY has more story. Really whichever will do, but ORAS is what I'd suggest.

@Jaloopa No, I'm fine with that. It was just confusing, and seemed like you were trying to lump in people who admit to knowing about their corrupt as hell foundation with murder conspiracy theories, which is a pretty dirty rhetorical trick, of course.
-
@boomzilla said in The Official Status Thread:
Yes, while running the installer, I meant.
Ah, so it should do...what it did. (Based on when I've seen this same dialog in other installations, I'd guess that VS fired off a secondary installer, and it's when that started, that this dialog showed up).

Your fatal assumption is thinking I know anything about their foundation. You were making it sound threatening in some vague, unstated way and I associated that with the weird conspiracy theories I've recently heard of
-

Sure, let's go with that.
-

Blakey is often silly (although I'd be more inclined to use the word "ridiculous"), to be sure, but I have no interest in discussing his "thing."

Never microagress when you can macroagress.

Status: A little scared. Got an email about my little questionnaire site I built a while back (that never made it to a production server):
My response:
-
@izzion Hmm. I thought most of the pokemon were kind of dumb, which isn't going to change, but then, l really wanted more game after I got done with X and Y, so if I think about it like X/Y Part II, maybe I'll like it. Thanks!

@Jaloopa said in The Official Status Thread:

I think that's rather your fault for commenting on stuff you know nothing about then.

@boomzilla how else am i meant to keep my post count up?
-
@Jaloopa Yes, it's a good tactic for that.
