So playing Co-Op on the Wii U requires an extra pro controller, right?
Edit: am I in wrong section m8? Feckin google m8
Edit: am I in wrong section m8? Feckin google m8
It depends, which game.
Some can use the wii remote, some need wii remote plus, some wii remote plus and nunchuck, and some the Wii U Pro controller. It depends on the game. Also, there's a Stupid Gaming Questions thread for questions about gaming. For future reference

so it's not nice
Why are there threads that begin with "Stumpokapow presents" when Stump is not the OP? Inside joke?
Im having some serious lag problems.
No idea what to do,
Ive had my cable internet for about 6 months now, only past 2 weeks has it been lagging.
I have not done anything to my connection.
I have contacted my ISP and they reset my connection rom their end.
I bought new ethernet cables incase it was that, still lags.
No idea what to do.
PS: This is for ps3/ps4, wired connection. Cod, battlefield.
From the killcam, when I lag it looks like im frozen in place.

Have you tried to reset your router? Log in to the administration panel from a browser and click on the reset button. This is different from restoring it to factory settings.
I have not pressed the 'reset to factory settings' on my modem as I was unsure if that would reset my password and all that.
This is the only reference I can see in the modem settings which suggests a restart. I assume that would be what to press?
Will my password be reset too?
A reboot, as opposed to a factory reset, shouldn't wipe any of your settings. You should try that. If that doesn't help, a hard reset (removing the power supply for a few minutes and plugging it back in). Also shouldn't wipe any settings.
Besides, since you say you're wired. What passwords are you walking about?
My ps3 & ps4 are wired but laptop/phone/vita/3ds are not.
Hmm I TURNED the power off for about 30 seconds then back on, but didnt unplug. Dont see the difference but I will try that too.
i THINK the 'reboot' option sort of worked.
I played my first game with minimal lag.
2nd game, the lag occured just a little bit more.
3rd game was a bit worse than the 2nd.
4th was much better but still occured.
Final game, the teleportation and stuff has returned!
Will unplug for a minute now!
Is there a reason why this whole thing occured? I had not touched my settings/modem/connection/anything AT ALL. Does this just normally happen over time?
EDIT: just tested bf4 and its much much worse.
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING!
I contacted ISP
'Rebooted' modem
Unplugged power supply
WHAT MORE DOES GOD ASK OF ME!?

Check your cables. Have you connected anything in a loop? Make sure you know exactly where each cable is going.
I think so?
Green cable is ethernet cable
White is just my antenna for tv
i literally didnt move anything before this started happening

There is nothing wrong with how you connected them. I'm sorry, but I have no more suggestions. I hope you get the issue sorted out.

Hey, I'm looking for a gif of a girl dancing that's been posted before. I'm pretty sure that gif came from a scene in a movie, so if anyone can also tell me the name of the movie I'd appreciate it. If I recall correctly, she has short hair and is wearing a blue dress that is kinda in a 50s/60s style. I remember she swings her arm in a circle and kicks out her leg at one point. And I think she's in a kitchen.

IMDb top 250 is respected as a mainstream list of generally well regarded top movies. Is there an equivalent list for literature?

Not that I know of off hand but you might find this list useful (the 'Board' side anyway):

Or if you're just looking for a recommendation, there are lots of archived links here:

Comic book people... Ultimate xmen comics... I read a few and could have sworn it was an attempt at a reboot as the reintroduce characters, ie. Storm is like a teenager found in ny.
is this not a reboot? I read the inside of the books and they said as much, wikipedia calls it a reimagining.... Did anyone read these? And they are not canon right?

Looking for some good websites to buy professional grade pest control supplies and brand recommendations.
We got some used electronics and crap that were infested with roaches. Probably german.
The exterminator hasn't been able to make much of a dent.
Over the counter bug killers have never worked for us. Especially that dastardly flea infestation a few years ago.
I'm getting the willies thinking about it.

Wikipedia was right, the enture Ultimate line was supposed to be a re-imagining of Marvel franchises to interest people who want to read about these characters but don't want the baggage of decades of continuity. This typiclly meant that they would modernize the characters and make them younger while also addressing stuff in the origins of heroes that didn't make sense (Peter Parker gets bitten by a genetically engineered spider rather than a radioactive one which would instantly kill him). They then decided to take the opportunity to make the Ultimate universe as different as possible since they aren't shackled down by needing to adhere to continuity, for better or for worse. The Ultimate titles are not canon to the main Marvel universe, but it does exist in the same multiverse as it, and when
Galactus killed off the whole Ultimate universe some of the heroes, like Miles Morales, got transported to the main universe

thanks anyways for trying
Dumb question maybe, but did you do the PS3/4 network test? What type of NAT does it say you have?
Also, when you power cycled your modem and tested those games, did you make sure no other devices were connected? Specifically your laptop since that's wireless and if left on, would automatically reconnect I imagine. And when you do a speed test on your laptop, everything checks out fine btw? No lag outside of the PS3/4 with their wired connections?

Random question but if something on Amazon.de isn't sold or fulfilled by Amazon, can I still pay with a gift card?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: For anyone reading this, yes it works!

For some reason most of my text in chrome has become italicized and I don't know why. Any idea how to fix it? I have been mucking around in the settings and haven't solved it yet. Thanks.
This may not be the best avenue to ask this, but I'm confused about one issue.
Why is rape generally thought to be about power and not about sex? Does that refer only to violent rapists whose victims are resisting, or all rapists, including those who coerce people into sex?
If all rapists care more about power than sex, why is it effective to teach boys why consent is important?

My friend had two different antivirus softwares installed on her computer. At some point she logged into each one and had them both scan&delete everything. Now her computer is str8 busted, very slow and hard freezes all the time while doing nothing.
If I got her a new install of Windows and she simply updated (she's running 7, was thinking of 8), might her problem be fixed? I'd rather not walk her through a complete wipe. If she forgets to save an essential file, it'd be my ass for convincing her to do computer-things.
Thx!

Installing a new version of Windows will wipe all her personal files anyway, so..
But yeah, it would definitely fix her problem.
nat 2.
Went to 3 one time I did the test, but no, generally 2.
I talked to my ISP and they are sending me a replacement modem. They think it could be that, and it very well could be because it just keeps 'rebooting' itself.
Keeps flashes, internet signal turns green for a sec then all the lights start flashing again, rinse and repeat x forever.

Did that as a kid, didn't hurt, but you might want to see a dentist in any case. He can probably seal it before it can become a source of caries.

Many years go I did the exact same thing on one of my back molars. Can still feel the spot now. Never started hurting in my case.
I'm trying to get a video from Facebook chat on to my friend's Facebook page.
I did the right-click the video link and copy the url thing, but that didn't work. Does anyone know how to do this? Or if there was some way I could download the video and then re-upload it for him that would work too, I guess.

I don't think you can save a transparency in MS Paint. You can in Paint.NEt, though, and it's free. http://www.getpaint.net/
Here's a quick version of you current av, but you could probably get something better done in the avatar request thread.

That title was edited by a mod so yes that's sanctioned
Is that always the case? Some seem a bit over the top (although I'm totally fine with the ones that threaten thread discussion quality).

Moving images on my computer and tons of them are these DSC00004 or similar names but cant open them and they are coming up as invalid files. Now there is some kind of permissions fuckery going on and that is stopping them from being deleted without admin powers. I am afraid I am deleting images I want but cant open because of permissions shit. Any ideas how to open them and see what is going on or mass convert them to good permissions?

How does electricity actually work? As in, an understandable description of how it works, catered to a moron like me.
Post a video and I'll be tempted to slit you up the middle like a Cornish Pasty.
Here is a couple threads I found on the subreddit "Explain Like I'm Five" that might help you. It's a good place to find simplified answers to questions you feel dumb asking.

It's very humid today in Houston and there's these large brown/black buzzing bugs that are everywhere. As someone with a phobia of insects, I want to know my enemies better.
What are these fucking things that are flying everywhere? They're about the size of an adult thumb. They're not wasps or flies (or common ones anyways) and they're not dragonflies. Is it a type of beetle? I don't know.

Eurogamer made a upgrade guide for PS4 users. Take a look at it here. Personally, I would probably get a 2 TB hybrid drive if I wanted to replace mine.
