| 01:17.27 | Kraps | whats the point of fatigue damage in hearthstone |
| 01:18.33 | Amarande | hmm, I don't even remember that being a mechanic, unless they added it after launch |
| 01:18.41 | Amarande | mind you I only really played the first introductory matches, heh |
| 01:19.06 | Amarande | and now I'm reading that Hearthstone has pretty much become P2W unless you've been playing it hardcore since launch, otherwise you'll never catch up :S |
| 01:19.27 | Amarande | and I do not play games that are P2W :p |
| 01:19.47 | Amarande | except ... actually, not even really Magic, because I pretty much only play Magic in drafts |
| 01:20.19 | Kraps | if you run out of cards every draw after that will cause increased damage to you |
| 01:20.28 | Amarande | ah |
| 01:20.42 | Amarande | that's just a substitute mechanic for the usual decking in CCGs |
| 01:20.50 | Amarande | usually when you run out of cards and need to draw one you instantly lose :P |

| 18:54.45 | MiRai | I don't know how they compare it to FXAA, yet use super-sampling in there |

| 19:03.43 | Ressy | Amarande: Canadian airports are much better... No backscatter unless flagged SSSS by TSA on boarding pass. |
| 19:04.04 | Ressy | US airports... Going home, I had to do backscatter every time because of my Canadian passport. |
| 19:04.06 | Ressy | damn jerks |
| 19:04.24 | Amarande | Ressy: yeah I've barely ever been selected for additional screening ... one time at PDX I got a hand swab, that was about it |
| 19:04.45 | Ressy | Freakin passport control officer flagged me for secondary screening goign into the US. "Food" |
| 19:04.47 | Amarande | (although arguably, hand swabs are probably SCARIER than a lot of other screenings ... you've probably handled cash today, right? do you even know what's been on that money? ...) |
| 19:04.55 | Ressy | had to open my bags and have some old guy paw through my shit. |
| 19:05.14 | Amarande | I was talking more about the aeon or so you often have to wait in the line |
| 19:05.17 | Ressy | never been swabbed. |
| 19:05.28 | Ressy | Depends on time of day. |
| 19:05.33 | Ressy | I was through line quick yesterday. |
| 19:05.40 | Ressy | December, it was bad even with all 6 lanes open |
| 19:05.50 | Ressy | but #1 travel day of the year.. *shrugs* |
| 19:05.53 | Amarande | although at the New York airports they regularly randomly wave people through the TSA Pre lane, I've had the good fortune many times for that |
| 19:06.03 | Ressy | yesterday only 3 lanes were open for non-Nexus. |
| 19:06.08 | Amarande | if I traveled more often I'd probably sign up for it |
| 19:06.24 | Amarande | but I suspect there's probably some kind of non-cheap fee for it |
| 19:06.36 | Amarande | and nowadays I'm lucky if I get to travel more than once or twice a year, curse you budget |
| 19:06.47 | Ressy | I might sign up for it. |
| 19:06.55 | Amarande | mostly, Barack Obama and his shortsighted idealism *sigh* |
| 19:07.13 | Ressy | Having it bypasses most of the lines. |
| 19:07.23 | Ressy | Honestly, I wouldn't need to be there 3 hrs before my flight. |
| 19:07.28 | Ressy | Probably only 45 mins |
| 19:07.30 | Amarande | apparently, he must have thought with his whole part time vs full time crap related to the ACA, companies would actually upgrade employees to full time and thus give them benefits |
| 19:07.43 | Ressy | cuz it bypasses passport control, and theres a separate line for nexus |
| 19:07.48 | Ressy | separate security line |
| 19:07.53 | Amarande | instead of, you know, the actual realistic thought, which is *actually what happened*, which is that part timers with good hours got chopped down to size so that they'd meet the new official standards for PT |
| 19:08.05 | Amarande | so now I get 24-28 hours a week instead of the 35 or so I used to :( |
| 19:09.26 | Amarande | and get to kiss my tax refund goodbye in the future pretty much because the available exchange plans are garbage and being so close to the cutoff for Medicaid it's too risky a gamble to go for a subsidy, so if I wanted them I'd have to pay full premium for such garbage, too |
| 19:09.29 | Amarande | so yeah, less travel. :( |
| 19:09.35 | Amarande | otherwise I'd definitely go for it. |
| 19:13.19 | Ressy | $50 for nexus |

| 19:14.34 | Amarande | huh. maybe it is worth it, especially considering the cost of missing a flight ... though I'm not sure what the USA prices are |
| 19:14.51 | Ressy | $50 either canadian or US. |
| 19:15.05 | Ressy | US if you do it online. If on paper, canadian or US |
| 19:16.24 | kd3 | http://www.dhs.gov/comparison-chart |
| 19:17.27 | Ressy | sucks if I wanna do it all online, its $50 USD for me. >.< |

| 19:38.34 | Amarande | not 100% sure, but it's probably referenced in those Blizzard_ folders in your interface/addons directory |
| 19:38.59 | Amarande | (IIRC, the reason those folders even exist is so you can see how Blizzard implements the default UI ... they're *not actually used*) |
| 19:39.22 | kd3 | those folders have no content in them. they're just there so users don't create addons with the same name |
| 19:39.30 | kd3 | the actual ui is in the data files |
| 19:39.33 | kd3 | ~framexml |
| 19:39.33 | purl | Blizzard's UI for WoW. Extract it yourself by following intructions on http://wowpedia.org/Viewing_Blizzard%27s_interface_code ; or view it online at http://github.com/tekkub/wow-ui-source , http://wowprogramming.com/utils/xmlbrowser or http://www.townlong-yak.com/framexml . |
| 19:40.25 | Hazal | I have tried looking through the framexml, but I couldn't find it, I even tried doing this: hooksecurefunc("PlaySound", function(args) print(args) end) |
| 19:41.16 | Hazal | Maybe I'm bad at finding it, I was hoping some of you knew a way to figure it out. |
| 19:41.55 | Amarande | kd3: oh, heh |
| 19:42.02 | Amarande | I never even took a look in them, come to think of it :) |
| 19:42.14 | Amarande | I figured that they'd put a copy of the default UI there for informational purpose :) |
| 19:42.35 | Amarande | although I suppose thinking again that might be an issue ... the engine is apt to think there's an addon to be loaded from there, which means the entire UI would be tainted :( |
| 19:47.28 | Hazal | How can a sound be played without passing through the PlaySound function? I've even tried hooking to some of the other audio related functions to figure out what sound is being played with no results |
| 19:48.04 | Hazal | or atleast not when the specific sound is being played |
| 19:48.07 | mckenziemc | or the game could just... be hardcoded to never load addons with the same name |
| 19:48.16 | mckenziemc | not that the current setup is an issue |
| 19:50.45 | Semlar | if it's calling a reference to the unhooked version of the function |
| 19:51.04 | Hazal | hmm |
| 19:51.20 | Semlar | what sound are you talking about |
| 19:51.26 | mckenziemc | guess it doesn't really matter that third-party addons can specify blizzard addons for LoadWith or OptionalDeps, that could be made to work either way |
| 19:51.37 | Hazal | The sound that is played when you enter a queue, like a dungeon, battleground, arena queue etc |
| 19:51.48 | Semlar | the one when you hit find group? |
| 19:52.18 | Hazal | Yeah I think so |
| 19:55.41 | Hazal | I think it even replays every time you get a loading screen |
| 19:55.53 | Hazal | While you're in the queue |
| 19:58.12 | Semlar | not sure, i would have expected it to be in queuestatusframe.lua |
| 19:58.22 | Semlar | but there are a lot of places it could be |
| 20:01.49 | mckenziemc | LFDQueueFrameFindGroupButton |
| 20:01.56 | mckenziemc | i would search for that in the xml files |
| 20:02.25 | mckenziemc | see what its OnClick does |
| 20:26.42 | Kraps | oh man so many crosspromotions http://www.wowhead.com/item=98618/hearthsteed |
| 20:26.44 | Kraps | :3 |
| 20:31.27 | plaw | ahahaha Universal Pictures have asked Google to remove 127.0.0.1 from search results because Copyright https://torrentfreak.com/universal-asks-google-to-censor-furious-7-imdb-page-and-more-150722/ |
| 20:34.27 | zenzelezz | will they never learn |
| 20:34.31 | zenzelezz | this will just make people flock to 10.* |
| 20:34.41 | Mr_Rabies | so there's a segment of the ocean very close to gorgrond where a bunch of wharf rats rain from about 20 feet up and land in the ocean when you get near it |
| 20:35.24 | Mr_Rabies | wonder if that was gonna be a dock originally |
| 20:35.28 | Mr_Rabies | and they just poofed the dock |
| 20:35.34 | Mr_Rabies | so the rats just fall into the water |
| 20:38.20 | Amarande | plaw: it makes me wonder, do they even have proper IT staff fill out these reports or do they just have Legal send it in without consulting (and probably claiming OMG WE MUST HAVE CONFIDENTIALITY and thus maybe not even being *allowed* to consult) IT? |
| 20:39.09 | Mr_Rabies | it's near other clearly unfinished segments of gorgrond, so i imagine they intended something to be over here |
| 20:39.13 | Dagmar | plaw: Perhaps if we, I dunno, held companies accountable for their bogus takedown notices in some way |
| 20:40.31 | Amarande | ... and probably old lawyers, too, since this lack of tech savvy seems to point to it |
| 20:40.53 | Amarande | most younger lawyers and law students I've known tend to actually have significantly above average tech savvy, many of them are even out and out fellow geeks |
| 20:41.10 | Amarande | older lawyers otoh ... well ... can we say "congress and the supreme court whenever they have to weigh in on tech matters" :P |
| 20:42.01 | Amarande | Mr_Rabies: yeah WoD in general seems to exude lazy :( |
| 20:43.03 | Mr_Rabies | lazy isn't really the right term, more rushed/unfinished |
| 20:43.13 | Mr_Rabies | my guess is because they started work on whatever's next immediately |
| 20:43.16 | Amarande | Mr_Rabies: hmm, what game am I thinking about |
| 20:43.20 | Amarande | ahh, yes, Ultima IX |
| 20:43.22 | Amarande | *sigh* |
| 20:43.38 | Amarande | the game that made me not want to buy anything from Electronic Arts for the better part of a decade, as I recall |
| 20:44.19 | Amarande | and meanwhile here I am about to buy the Bard's Tale collection from GoG ... which is partly a memory of sadness in that regard |
| 20:44.44 | Amarande | because the original trilogy (you get it included when you buy the 2004 Bard's Tale from GoG) was published by EA back in the days when EA were actually great |
| 20:54.48 | plaw | many 'old' lawyers could get it if they weren't lazy slackers (disclaimer: one of my best friends is an 'old' lawyer, well... mid fifties not super old but to you kids old probably...) |
| 20:55.31 | plaw | my friend also totally gets stuff. we've had a few companies back down against him. which is a shame because we're still hoping to get a day in court together, his legal nose and my tech stuff |
| 20:58.20 | Mr_Rabies | you know what |
| 20:58.24 | Mr_Rabies | looking at its location |
| 20:58.35 | Mr_Rabies | i bet it was a dock to farahlon at some point |
| 20:59.08 | Amarande | yeah, I'm still wondering what they plan to do about farahlon |
| 20:59.12 | Amarande | it's kind of necessary, for lore reasons |
| 20:59.26 | nevcairiel | its not |
| 20:59.51 | Amarande | nevcairiel: netherstorm exists in the future, for there not to also be a corresponding region in the past is odd |
| 20:59.59 | nevcairiel | its not the future |

| 21:01.12 | nevcairiel | they have said that among the very first things, draenor and outlands are not the same thing at different points in time |
| 21:01.22 | nevcairiel | otherwise they couldnt do half the things they did =p |
| 21:01.29 | Mr_Rabies | i mean |
| 21:01.44 | Mr_Rabies | farahlon was a pretty key location to the laughing skull clan |
| 21:01.51 | Amarande | yeah, but when we went to outland we learned that it's what's left of Draenor, and (because Nagrand) pretty clearly the same part of Draenor |
| 21:02.01 | Mr_Rabies | it -is- pretty important, and it's kinda shit that we didn't get it |
| 21:04.01 | *** join/#wowuidev moduloj (moduloj@cpc8-wiga12-2-0-cust242.pres.cable.virginm.net) |
| 21:04.45 | Mr_Rabies | i mean, in this timeline that massive landmass just never happened but most other things did? |
| 21:05.04 | Amarande | Mr_Rabies: yeah, it's almost as horrid as the spellplague in forgotten realms |
| 21:05.28 | nevcairiel | just because we dont get to go there doesnt mean it doesnt necessarily exist |
| 21:05.37 | Amarande | ... which was very clearly a crap redo to shoehorn the world into the 4E ruleset instead of adapting 4E to it :P |
| 21:07.01 | Mr_Rabies | i mean, it's not there |
| 21:07.38 | Mr_Rabies | you can look out from the ocean in gorgrond and it's totally empty |
| 21:07.43 | Amarande | nevcairiel: wonder if this is the untold story about flying in draenor that they didn't want to tell us |
| 21:08.02 | Stanzilla | they removed faralon from the map in beta |
| 21:08.04 | nevcairiel | put your tinfoil hat back on, the stupid is leaking out |
| 21:08.06 | Mr_Rabies | they didn't even add in an unvisitable landmass like the various islands in MoP before isle of thunder |
| 21:08.08 | Amarande | as in, they didn't want to take the time to add in some parts of the continent like this, and without flight, they could get away with it much more readily |
| 21:08.20 | Amarande | because without flight, as long as you can't *get* to a place, it doesn't *matter* |
| 21:08.26 | Amarande | *with* flight, pretty much everything has to be there or ... yeah |
| 21:08.41 | Stanzilla | they already knew back then that they would not have enough time to do it |
| 21:08.41 | Amarande | same reason they took so long to let us fly in azeroth, and why we still can't in ghostlands/eversong |
| 21:08.44 | nevcairiel | there is plenty high mountains in gorgrond and plenty ways to fly |
| 21:08.51 | Stanzilla | because they were running late for release and already had to move content to patches |
| 21:09.08 | Amarande | Stanzilla: which makes everyone wonder wtf they were doing all that time |
| 21:09.17 | Amarande | how long were we stuck on SoO, and they still managed to not have enough time for stuff? |
| 21:10.39 | Mr_Rabies | well the big reason was they expanded the wow team massively and that set them back a huge amount of time |
| 21:10.45 | nevcairiel | they hired a whole bunch of new people, and contrary to what the players believe, hiring more people actually slows down progress until the dust settles and everyone knows what they are doing |
| 21:10.57 | Mr_Rabies | they lost about 6 months due to all the new hires, etc |
| 21:11.36 | Stanzilla | doesnt change the fact that they were running late |
| 21:11.42 | Mr_Rabies | that being said flight is hella broken in 6.2.1 |
| 21:12.02 | Mr_Rabies | you can fly straight through the uninstanced HFC straight to ground level |
| 21:12.11 | Mr_Rabies | through the false terrain, etc |
| 21:12.46 | Mr_Rabies | it's clear WoD suffered due to numerous factors, and hopefully whatever the followup is will be worth basically scrapping a whole expansion |
| 21:12.58 | *** join/#wowuidev Mihau (~alexia@67.23.204.130) |
| 21:13.58 | nevcairiel | thats why 6.2.1 is still on the ptr =P |
| 21:14.13 | Mr_Rabies | it's beyond standard ptr-broke |
| 21:14.27 | Mr_Rabies | it's like OH JESUS HOLES IN ALL THE TERRAIN EVERYWHERE PLEASE HELP US FIND THEM |
| 21:14.39 | nevcairiel | maybe they did that intentionally so all the tinfoil-hatters see that its more than just flipping a switch to turn that on |
| 21:14.52 | nevcairiel | ie. keep the fixes out of the first ptr build just to show them the state it was in |
| 21:15.18 | Mr_Rabies | i don't think there's much tinfoil hatting this one |
| 21:15.24 | Amarande | nevcairiel: actually there was a point in the 6.2 PTR, before they caved in on flight, where they accidentally left the flight switch on |
| 21:15.34 | Mr_Rabies | they clearly didn't design the expansion at any point to have flight |
| 21:15.50 | Amarande | it was one of the big flash points in the flying debate, that and the addition of the new flying mount to the wow store and then saying "oh, but you won't actually be able to fly on it, now or probably ever" |
| 21:16.17 | nevcairiel | flying is mostly fine, you can fly around with so many items and whatnot that they couldn't just make the world be entirely broken |
| 21:17.01 | nevcairiel | you could climb like every mountain if you wanted to |
| 21:17.09 | nevcairiel | i have rarely hit an invisible wall |
| 21:17.59 | karl_w_w | i do wish people would stop misusing the word harassment |
| 21:18.29 | Mr_Rabies | in 2015, disagreement is harassment, karl_w_w |
| 21:18.34 | Amarande | karl_w_w: you mean like newscasters constantly saying "Harris mint"? |
| 21:18.35 | Mr_Rabies | didn't you get the memo |
| 21:18.49 | Amarande | karl_w_w: that one's almost as bad as "artic" or "nucular" |
| 21:19.15 | karl_w_w | so what word do we use when we mean harassment? |
| 21:20.23 | Mr_Rabies | also harassment |
| 21:20.46 | Mr_Rabies | the new trend is diluting words with actual meanings and redefining minor shit to the new meaning |
| 21:21.39 | Amarande | Mr_Rabies: you mean like how tweeting that your flight gate agent is rude is considered a "threat" to her now? |
| 21:21.50 | Amarande | (actually happened to one guy, it got on slashdot) |
| 21:23.31 | Mr_Rabies | or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UheC38wpRYg |
| 21:23.56 | karl_w_w | i can't wait til the sea level rises and submerges our cities and famine engulfs us all. sure life will be harder, but at least people will stop overblowing everything |
| 21:24.43 | Mr_Rabies | there's a pretty relevant quote |
