Shadow Wizard

Oh well.

Stijn

thank you both :)

Amazing how people don't even bother to look in their code before coming to SO.

rene

@ShadowWizard A post is to be actively handled by only one member of the room. We don’t need 4 members all leaving witty statements in the comments or in chat.

Shadow Wizard

Well, neither of them were really "witty" so guess it's for the best. Such person needs to hear same thing several times to understand. :)

rene

That will work ;)

Fawad

1:08 PM

@M.A.R. atleast we could have given some suggestions or show best site to ask. Not being so rude. :/

user202362

washington has many chicken farms?

Fawad

@Telkitty to feed kittens?

user202362

it's an article about the chickens, except the author is not named chicken and the university is not for chickens

user202362

Shadow Wizard

@Fawad no we don't. We do not want to encourage off topic questions.

user202362

1:11 PM

highly suspicious

Shadow Wizard

@rene got some nice pre-made comment he's using, but other than that we really shouldn't do anything except downvote, close, and delete. @Fawad

Derpy

@ShadowWizard Ending credits

Shadow Wizard

But for some reason today Oded is nuking those questions before we get chance to do anything. :)

@Derpy so you're voiced by Tabitha St. Germain?

@Telkitty source code also available: code.call-cc.org

> The source code for some(*) CHICKEN extensions (eggs) can be fetched from the Subversion revision control system

user202362

lol

Shadow Wizard

So eggs extend chickens? That's new.

Derpy

1:16 PM

@ShadowWizard yep, that is also why I am able to become Rarity to scold you. Same voice actor. Wasn't that obvious?

user202362

class chicken {
/*blah*/
}
class egg extends chicken {
/*blah blah*/
}

rene

/* tock tock */

Derpy

@Telkitty What comes before? The egg or the chicken?

user202362

compiler doesn't allow circular extends

Fawad

@Derpy chicken,if egg then who would make it warm? (Sorry for bad English)

rene

1:24 PM

> don't click the link

Fawad

According to science,there were some chicken type animals,once mutation occur and we get chikens

Which Came First - The Chicken or the Egg?

Derpy

@Telkitty esolangs.org/wiki/Chicken

Stijn

@Fawad indeed, egg came before chicken

Fawad

@Stijn not chicken egg it would be egg of different parent.

Derpy

depends on your definition of "chicken egg":
a) an egg laid by a chicken
b) an egg from which a chicken will be born

Fawad

1:47 PM

@Derpy testing

O:,it pinged you,but in above comment it didn't showed my name.

Derpy

@Fawad this is a reply to older post

Fawad

But it didn't showed my name when you pinged

Derpy

this is a reply
on multiple lines
The inconsistency was already reported. Closed as "we don't care"

Aug 4 '16 at 9:56, by Derpy

(trad: do not try to fight for this fix, it isn't worth your time)

Fawad

Nice policy..

Derpy

nope, not nice. Necessary maybe, but not nice

Fawad

1:55 PM

@Derpy whay worse can happen if not fixed?

Shadow Wizard

Not a bug, so nothing to fix. When more than one line, they want to show the lines all aligned. Having the name will ruin that, and make it appear worse. This is a design/UI choice.

Though I agree there are real bugs "closed" as "we don't care" aka "meh", which sometimes can be irritating.

@ShadowWizard which is just an elegant way to say : switch to a monospace font and I will trust you when you say you want to "show the lines all aligned"

Shadow Wizard

@Derpy aligned, not same length when having the same amount of characters. Two different things. :)

Derpy

if they are going to destroy my ascii arts attempts with a non-monospace font, they may as well go the extra mile and not align the lines

@ShadowWizard Why did you miss me today?

Shadow Wizard

@πάνταῥεῖ of course, I miss everyone every day. ;)

@Fawad by the way if you love to play with bots, feel free to join the Den, there are fun bots in there, which can flip, wake, kill, and even lick.

(and one can even pee.)

(but it's gross.)

Fawad

Shadow Wizard

Ready?

On your marks...

Fawad

haha! I did it.

in Shadow's Den, 24 secs ago, by Shadow Wizard

@Derpy here is your ping!

pinged.

not here, here it's trivial.

@Derpy wasn't in Den for over a year.

So he thought he's safe. :D

oh hey anyone played this game?

Jan Dvorak

could be a really bad tileset for Dwarf Fortress if you squint a little

in which case those dragons would be going to cause a lot of Fun.

Shadow Wizard

3:44 PM

lol

think that game pre-dates Dwarf Fortress

I played it when I was 14 or so, and it wasn't new.

AT machine, EGA screen.

Jan Dvorak

When do we learn its name?

Shadow Wizard

DOS, of course.

@JanDvorak when you ask

;)

What's that game?

Not this

Champions of Krynn is the first in a three-part series of Dragonlance Advanced Dungeons & Dragons "Gold Box" role-playing video games. The game was released in 1990. The highest graphics setting supported in the MS-DOS version was EGA graphics. It also supported the Adlib sound card and either a mouse or joystick. The game can still be run with an MS-DOS emulator such as DOSBox. == Plot == After a prologue set at the Inn of the Last Home in Solace, the adventure begins at an outpost near Throtl, the capital city of the Hobgoblins. The party soon meets a group of Baaz Draconians ambushing some good...

Thanks

Shadow Wizard

Man... I miss that game. Might play it again some day. :D

Jan Dvorak

It's ancientware, so go ahead :-)

Shadow Wizard

Think I tried once with DOSbox, didn't work well. :(

Jan Dvorak

Will you stream?
