Yes, but it's not how galaxy works, sadly.

@CM's there is something wrong-ish.

You don't have anything featured on meta, and removing the 2-rep restriction, we still get more OT than we used to before.

Quill

wow there's a lot of flags coming out of You are Here in the last few hours

PhMgBr

Yeah.

Just ignore them.

Hi. meta.stackexchange.com/a/244435/222298 says I could host an avatar image on gravatar instead of imgur if I want to use a transparent image. Does that answer still apply? If so, how do I do that? That is, how do I find out the identity proof I should tell to gravatar to change the image SE uses?

PhMgBr

@b_jonas I made an account on Gravatar with the same email that's used for SE.

b_jonas

@PhMgBr In the user "Edit Profile & Settings" => "Edit Profile" setting, do I choose "Identicon" for that?

PhMgBr

@b_jonas No, it says Gravatar.

I think it'll appear once you set it up.

b_jonas

@PhMgBr Ok... I'll try. I'm looking at this crazy Wordpress license agreement right now that gravatar.com asks me to agree on.

Wait wait. Which email address is that. The notification email on the "Edit Profile & Settings" / "Preferences" page, or some other email?

Perhaps an email on the "Edit Profile & Settings" / "My Logins" page?

Argh, I give up for now. This sucks. I'll try again some other day

Although their job titles are pretty terrible...

Quill

Yeah, they could probably throttle it a bit more than they already are...

@PhMgBr Users are still opening their inbox with the link to Meta.SE post. Long tail.

Oh MSE spam will be back. :(

Yes, you should at least try to verify if your assumption to burninate is correct. That can be done here on meta or informally in a chatroom where you expect subject matter experts to be found. Or head to the SOCVR if no such room exist. The number of questions in a tag, the absence of a tag wiki are not a criteria to start removing a tag. — rene 4 hours ago

@rene I'm not quite sure I agree with you on this... some tags are just stupid; no need to waste someone's time for them just to agree with you.

For things that aren't obvious, sure. But for tags like server-log...

Konamiman aka Néstor Soriano (a new-ish developer) is kind of distorted on the company page, stackoverflow.com/company/team

Question: what does the image file name 40823-1-1 mean?

user315433

Nick Craver has 40449-1-1. Joel has 40424-3-1

user315433

9:34 PM

Most end in 1-1 but some have 2-1, 3-1, and in rare cases, 4-1 or even 6-1.

user315433

The only person with 6-1 is Geoff McAdam, Senior Account Executive. (?) And the person with the smallest 5-digit photo number is Joe Humphries, Director of People Operations.

Quill

It's a secret code; if you crack it, they'll have to kill you to keep the secret

user315433

That's probably what they did with the person who had 5-1 filename.

user315433

There is 4-1 and 6-1, no 5-1.

An interesting idea: Should delete votes add a post to the low quality posts review queue? by Stefan Kohl on meta.mathoverflow.net

user315433

9:40 PM

I'd say yes, when they are answers scoring <= 0. (Closed questions have no business being in LQRQ)

Quill

Maybe Jeff Atwood had 5-1
