why? because why not?

first reaction: Who?
second reaction: on there's a wiki link
third reaction: huh. not the wiki i thought it was
fourth reaction: [censored] that'sa weird mustache
fifth reaction: oh. him. nope, doesn't work for me at all, but hey if it floats his boat then more power to him but i'll be browsing the web over here, y'know away from him.
softcoded so we can change the target if needed.
return of @nagesh maybe?
should the bot have a triggerable @mention bomb feature?
/me thinking evil thinking
i'll grant you the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
less fun than building a bot, but i take your point.
For my server we do that first weekend in september.
If a new version comes out we upgrade and either set up a netherrail to a new chunks area or use command block TP pads (pressure plates)
i am considering resetting on the half year, but that'll end up being a community decision, not an edict from the goddess.
'preciate that. now i have to actually get off my arse and finish writing him.
Haven't looked at it yet. I'll PM you if i figure it out.
twitchTV is built into the clinet so that's what i'd use to start.
He will be
unless i goof in the genetic algorithm. in that case... RUN!
yum yum!
lemon merangue...
i should start doing some livestreams of the server... that's a good idea.
i couldn't do voice chat without some sort of voice filter though, for reasons.
I'm celebrating the yearly relaunch of my Minecraft Server for students, mentors, and alums of STEM programs (especially FIRST ROBOTICS)
75% of registered users (total 94) have logged in since it went live saturday and i still have no reports of Griefing! (these are mostly high school students mind you.)
i am celebrating with pie!
Realizing i forgot to log in here at all over the weekend, ruining my attendance.
-sigh- i really need to finish that sockbot script so i can be always online.
+1 (i assure you there's a character there after the '+'
adblockers for the lose!
what's really fun is getting the troll baiters to bait each other and bite!
that requires sublty.
or it was fun anyway, unfortunately the average inteligence of trolls and trollbaiters has dropped lately. it's too easy now
I hate b usinesses that think the need to control the internet to that extent.
I see the need for filtering out viruses and other questionable/illegal activity, but to say you can't has facebook because not everyone could resist always being on it‽
nope. if you cannot resits using facebook at work and it impacts your work... then i guess you are asking to be fired![^1]
[^1] Note: IANAL, don't take that as legal advice!
robot is golfing, and shouts 0-1-0-0 when it hits the ball.
also, your work filter sucks. it's blocking all the fun out of your world.
more like feeding the troll actually.
i've hung around /b/ long enough to be aware of most of the common ways of destroying your computer.
i used to have tons of fun baiting the trolls by pretending to use their instructions on platforms they weren't meant to destroy(like running a linux bomb on windows, or visa versa) and getting interesting/humorous results and/or OS easter eggs.
needless to say i had to use a pseudonym (for my nomme de guerre) as they caught on pretty quickly usually.
i've looked and looked and looked.
there's not a single computer in the building with a Ctrl+P key. so i followed @riking's instructions and now my computer won't boot....
Frankly my dear; we often don't get your jokes, that function is independent of any time variable.
SockAdept will be one if i ever finish him. i'll post source if i do.
LUCKY!
/me is jealous
actually, could we code that to be a shortcut? would be fun! @PJH to the rescue!
i have a webhost i could use for that...
hmm... would it be better to do my avatar or my profile background?
more people see the avatar but there's less room to play with...
I really should actually host them.
i just go to images.google.com and grab one that fits.
but i am le lazy.
this one is a grumpy cat obama style campaign poster that says 'NOPE" instead of 'change'
tried lightswitch. it's cool for a simple data entry UI with a table or two.
for anything more....
did that actually. also left off vc++ anv vb because [expletive deleted] them.
ideally yes, but then i never planned to have to use VS2008 again so i didn't install it until now when i needed to use it because upgrading the project made it go kersplody (i don't even want to know why. i just don't)
order of installs was same on both machines as far as i can tell.
VS2012
SQL2012
VS2008 (because some BIS projects can't be upgraded without breaking all to hell)
and the last one i'm trying:
SQL2008r2
except i can't do that on the desktop. btu the laptop is okay with it.
i think i need to format the desktop soon. it's getting weird...
try this one on for size
i've been fighting with it so much trying to get SQL2008r2's business inteligence studio installed on a machine that has SQL2012 already installed.
every flipping time i try i get the error "the specified user already exists" I even got our domain admin (i'm local admin) to try it and he got the same thing!
i try removing the few components of sql2008 to try a from scratch..... THE UNINSTALL FAILS WITH THE SAME ERROR
so i say [expletive deleted] this! and try it on my work laptop that also has sql2012 installed, just for S&Gs
and it [expletive deleted]ing WORKS!

leave it to blakey to find a worse quality image than I did.
agreed.
and even though it was a bit over the top he was remarkably coherent too, a nice touch. He made some actually valid points about how the customer service experience could have been better and how the cellphone company could have saved even more money than they are now.
so yes, a big bottle of whine, but well presented and coherent.
7.5/10 would critique again.
among other things.
i conldn't be arsed to find a better image on google image search.
I don't always agree with @blakeyrat
as for the autoclose. i'm not seeing it anymore on my screen. so discoursistency?
Well to whomever moved the topic and removed the autoclose. Thanks! you beat me to it!
hmm.. okay, if you say so.
but does this belong in the sidebar or the error'd sidebar?
and does moving it take away the autoclose?
I've had to deal with this enough over the past few days that i just have to ask:
WHOSE [expletive deleted] IDEA WAS IT TO MAKE THE INSTALLER ALWAYS CREATE WINDOWS BELOW ANY EXISTING WINDOWS?!
it's bad enough that you create and destroy windows at a whim in your installer, but to have them always appear on the screen that has the mouse with the minimum possible Z-index?! MADNESS!
i can't do anything on the computer while the installer is running and keep an eye on it, because the [expletive deleted] window always pushes itself to the bottom of the z-index! And because it creates a new window every time i can't even use the always on top flag to fix things!
GAH!
[insert 5 hour blakeyrant here]
/me sigh
there. i feel a bit better now. thanks for listening.
i tried hamachi for a while and i could never get it to work right. invariably it would spontaneously disconnect at some random point, but leave the "connection" live. i had no indication from hamachi that the connection was broke, in fact the only clue i had was the internet was broke.
the only solution was a cold boot of the computer. they messed up something so bad a simple reboot wasn't enough to clear it.
how the [expletive deleted; category blasphemy] did it manage that?!
yeah. scary.
i would have disabled the oneboxing, but it was early and i couldn't be arsed to figure out/remember how.
sure, but if the answer is more complicated would you rather i map it to 'yes' because it is possible or 'no' because it doesn't "Just WorkTM"
standards, no. but a lot of the proprietary implementations added it.
I chose violate causality because that would let me do... well just about anything i wanted to.
like getting that grant proposal before writing it, so i could take the winning grant proposal (which of course would be mine) and photocopying it before it was written.
or, if i was really clever, causing all the news media to forget about the day/night cycle. That would be tricky, but with enough control over causality i could conceivably edit memory.
