So is backstabbing opponents. 00:50:33 From TV Tropes 00:50:35 "To bring an example of the convoluted nature of negotiations, it is not unusual for, say, France to engage in coordinated standoffs with Italy in order to fake a war with him, in order to satisfy Turkey, who demanded that France attack Italy in order to prevent Italy from attacking Austria while Turkey and Austria invade Russia together; the only reason France cares about what Turkey wants from him is that he and England are attempting to in 00:50:35 vade Russia's allies in Germany, and the Turkish invasion will distract Russia's attention and prevent him from opening up another flank with England. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to France or Turkey, Italy has already made a deal with England to hold off his attack on Austria until the conquest of Germany is completed, at which point he and England will turn on France.

It is lesser in other games such as Pokemon card, although puzzles of that can be made up too. 03:11:44 -!- hagb4rd has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds). 03:12:15 do you mean puzzles in a way similar to chess problems? 03:12:21 Yes, like that. 03:12:32 I have even made two Pokemon card puzzles. 03:12:41 And for the fun part, the FATAL Games logo is "Where the dice never lie." 03:12:45 ^^from the review 03:12:52 "Sartin: Yeah, I really like that logo, too. It was nice of the FATALites to point out that when you play games from other companies, your dice may lie to you. Ha, I knew it! All those times I was playing D&D or SenZar, and that d20 would show a 3 or some shit when I knew I rolled a 20. Thanks, FATAL, for showing me the way!" 03:14:52 -!- hagb4rd has joined. 03:21:01 Have you made any chess problems? 03:21:19 Or, puzzle for Pokemon card or Magic: the Gathering card? 03:24:05 Another idea is making up some Pokemon card puzzle which may include extra cards that isn't real and is not even necessarily balanced or anything like that, and is only used for the puzzle game; it can be called "Fairy card". 03:24:38 Clefairy card 03:25:39 yes, i'm sure Clefairy isn't balanced or anything like that, and is never used for serious games 03:26:50 dickachu 03:26:54 Arc_Koen: Not what I mean, of course. 03:27:14 I was trying to be funny 03:27:18 I have done with Magic: the Gathering cards, just numbered some made up cards, no names other than their number specific to this puzzle. 03:27:31 it's 4:30am and I'm sick so you should at least pretend that I am 03:27:32 Arc_Koen: Yes it is a bit funny, I suppose, too 03:28:46 With Pokemon card, though, the made-up card specific to the puzzle could be named by $ and a number, and if applicable, a level. And it is also possible there may be cards $1 [Lv.10] and $1 [Lv.15] to be two different cards, but anything evolving from $1 can be used with it, for example. 03:29:27 (The reason I used $ is because the other ASCII punctuation are mostly already used in my Pokemon card puzzles.) 03:29:39 come on, you got approximately 700 different pokemon to work with, do you really need dollar symbols? 03:30:25 Arc_Koen: It is if you make up your own cards specific to the puzzle. If you use real cards, you would use their actual name instead. 03:30:50 well you could make up a card then find a pokemon it looks like 03:31:18 Yes but then it might conflict with real card having the same name/level. 03:31:51 aren't there like 2147483647 pokémon now anyway 03:31:56 hmmm... but it's possible to have different cards for one pokemon, right? 03:32:07 Arc_Koen: Yes, as long as their levels ar different. 03:32:23 just use ♀ for all pokemon names 03:32:33 kmc: I believe there are a little under 700, but about a hundred of them have around twenty different possible shapes 03:32:58 No I want to use ASCII. 03:33:09 weak! 03:33:20 (I know some card names contain non-ASCII; so I use substitutions in that case) 03:33:21 be strong! make up your own charset! 03:34:40 Of course I could do that, but I don't want to do that for this purpose, so I want to use ASCII instead. 03:36:11 use UTF-7 03:36:24 pok+AOk-mon 03:36:28 Hmm, what's so bad about a 4d100/2-1 roll? 03:37:33 Well, I guess rolling it repeatedly for stats that ultimately don't matter is probably annoying 03:39:51 kmc: Well, I don't want to. 03:40:43 Sgeo: I used Goldilock's method to roll for stats; what do you prefer? 03:41:04 I haven't really ... er, designed an RPG. 03:41:08 What's Goldilock's method? 03:46:19 Sgeo: Make up your own numbers 0 to 9 for each of six ability scores. Using these numbers for two separate results: Add 1d8 to each. Convert to a percentage. Lookup in the table: 1->6, 2->8, 3->9, 4->10, 10->11, 14->12, 19->13, 25->14, 30->15, 35->16, 48->17, 65->18, 77->19. Select one column of results. Calculate bonus points by the total subtracting from 72, divide by 3, add 2, minimum of 2. 03:46:47 Add bonus points according to your choice, but not above 18, and then apply racial modifiers. 03:46:55 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds). 03:47:22 -!- hagb4rd has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds). 03:52:36 Sgeo: Did you understand this? 03:53:59 Didn't look at it closely 03:54:40 I don't understand the "Using these numbers for two separate results" thing 03:55:43 What I mean is that the numbers 0 to 9 that you selected by yourself, are used twice; the process splits at that point. And then with the final results you can pick which one you preferred. 03:56:20 Ah 03:59:05 "Of course, since both sub-abilities are (say it with me) totally random, we don't really know what happens when your Maximum Speech Rate ends up being lower than your Average Speech Rate, but it's just on this side of "totally possible"." 04:00:36 lol 04:01:18 That isn't possible though.

I liked how some of the sub-abilities provided real life-kinda examples or descriptions for each score. Like Strength listing how much you can lift, or the Vocal Charisma and Math columns I mentioned (okay, those ended up being dumb anyway, but the basic idea wasn't so bad). Examples like these can give solid ideas on how good a score really is, something many RPG systems have 04:14:31 had trouble with." 04:15:48 What is a probability distribution called dealing with such thing as 4d6 drop lowest?

Install Multi-Pointer X, plug in a second mouse and do a two-handed pinch? 19:31:52 the vulcan android pinch 19:32:18 (star trek had some blowing up stars, i recall) 19:32:53 fizzie: there's some thingy where you connect an android device to provide all touch input 19:33:13 but then you could just test on that device instead of in the emulator 19:33:27 olsner: "Develop on Virtual Devices -- Advanced hardware emulation, including camera, sensors, multitouch, telephony" -- I suppose it's part of that. 19:33:57 now to turn the sun quickly into a red giant, it would seem you would have to get its hydrogen to fuse superfast, which would seem like it would blow it up anyhow. 19:36:42 fizzie: that sounds like it might just be describing the emulator 19:37:16 olsner: Yes, but if it "emulates multitouch", I suppose it must have some way of performing it. 19:38:40 "The emulator supports multi-touch input, as an experimental feature in r17, using a tethered Android device running the SdkControllerMultitouch appplication." 19:38:49 Aw, apparently that's the only thing they support. 19:39:03 I was hoping for MPX. 19:40:52 iirc the emulator uses SDL, that might help you adjust your expectations 19:42:04 I saw something about doing hardware graphics acceleration. Though I suppose that doesn't exactly preclude SDL; there's OpenGL support in there. 19:51:07 kmc: http://29c3.fem-net.de - http live streaming is up. 19:56:31 yes 20:09:51 -!- DHeadshot has joined. 20:16:02 ais523: what's the FHS-correct location for a debootstrapped chroot 20:16:07 somewhere in /var? 20:17:17 err, not sure, /home seems to make the most sense 20:17:31 ais523: /home/foo/home/foo looks a bit silly 20:18:16 I've seen /srv used for that in e.g. examples, but no idea if that agrees with the FHS 20:19:34 "/srv contains site-specific data which is served by this system. -- The methodology used to name subdirectories of /srv is unspecified as there is currently no consensus on how this should be done. One method for structuring data under /srv is by protocol, eg. ftp, rsync, www, and cvs. On large systems it can be useful to structure /srv by administrative context, such as /srv/physics/www, ... 20:19:40 ... /srv/compsci/cvs, etc. This setup will differ from host to host." 20:20:04 I've seen /home structured by administrative context, on very large systems 20:20:42 * elliott has /srv/esolangs.org/www 20:21:01 My home directory is /u/22/htkallas/unix on the university systems. 20:21:31 /u has the subdirectories 01 .. 99, and there's some kind of a scheme to divide accounts into them. 20:22:15 (All 99 are separate NFS mounts.) 20:23:43 It's all very strange nowadays when it's full of Kerberos and Microsoft Active Directory. 20:24:13 My gid is 70000(Domain Users), for example. 20:25:02 And there's some kind of a thing where the regular Unix permissions sometimes show very misleading things, confusing some programs. 20:31:43 olsner: I have had that emulator running at 100% (single-core) CPU use for maybe twenty minutes now, trying to power off.
