@Telkitty why u no troll?

Wow

OP came back after 6 years just to rollback an edit.

plz-delete-sql meta.stackexchange.com/questions/295106/… @Bart @rene

@Telkitty this one looks pretty comfy

@Telkitty you just blew my mind.

Strike is over. Used custom flag again on MSE. Probably waste of time, but meh. :)

@ShadowWizard I was gone for five minutes and I missed a whole strike?

@M.A.R. yup. Be here more!

That's the fastest 4 meta upvotes I've ever seen o_o

make it 5

!!/alive

!!/coffee

:(

Who can bring it back?

@ShadowWizard there's a Justin Timberlake joke in there somewhere...

!!/alive

@ShadowWizard Kinda sorta

nice

@Telkitty brews a cup of jasmine tea for @Telkitty

@Stijn hmm? Where?

but with coffee instead of sexy

coffee is sexy

@Stijn lol

@Telkitty you need to ask a question to get banned again

SD poof

Whatever

@M.A.R. Must have been a bowling strike not a nuclear one this time. A gutter ball is unremarkable.

@Gerry You won't be able to vote if you get to 150 rep after the election starts?

Or do you want to be the first to get the nth Constituent?

@Gerry thanks for reminding me

Whatever, I'm too alien to the topic to suggest edits.

@Gerry search for "I have a doubt"

CC @Mith

Oh, how much effect do they really have, though?

@Telkitty Cool people beg like that

@M.A.R. I search for swear words ;)

Well, that I'm not sure would turn up too many editable results

But it's a good choice

Search for title:kindly

See what it gets ya

Oh look! @Gerry's running for mod

Darning needles needed.

Is it just me, or is elections.stackexchange.com hacked? It shows a totally unrelated page for me

uh... shit.

We found SE's expansion strategy. Interior Design!

@Shog9 Urgh, I thought the switch was flipped on the DNS, but I guess not? |:

gonna 404 it here shortly

Tim's indisposed for a bit, so this hasn't been quite... planned

on a brighter note... Free meta rep for someone who wants to demonstrate the black arts

@Shog9 Ah, that sounds…not ideal :/

Is the domain issue just about the switch to HTTPS by the way? I wasn't 100% clear from Nick's tweet why it'd need to be reclaimed

@Ferrybig should now display a calm panda

@TimStone well, that was the first issue (and would've eventually been the most critical)

then some other stuff happened

I'll defer to Tim when he gets back on that

Isn't @TimStone our replacement Tim? Assign it to him instead.

@Shog9 Alright. Obviously from my side I'd prefer to get the site back as soon as possible, which I can just do on my own, but I don't know whose buy in I have to get for that/whether we can continue to use the old domain with HTTPS if there's a solution there that everyone is comfortable with

I don't know if the motivations for having other-Tim host it are still relevant as they were at the time

…Especially given the whole "make sure the domain doesn't point to anything unintentional" aspect is a bit, errr, moot now

@Shog9 Should I relogin now, since that spam site may have read SE cookies, or was there no risk as I only accessed the site using HTTP, and I assume you use HTTPS only cookies?

@Ferrybig can't hurt

Why is there a right half when surely nobody fits in there? Or at most there is a top right corner for Jon Skeet.

> The Q&A site elections.stackexchange.com doesn't seem to exist…yet.

seems a good idea... go to Area 51

@Gerry what's this?

Who did you destroy?

@rene check again

\o/

@JasonC Either way, shouldn't be too hard. I don't follow that last statement you left here. Care to elaborate?

@Gerry And somehow exempt from annoying Indianisms, Americanisms etc., because?

@rene Yes: Massive sarcasm.

The most sarcasm you can possibly imagine.

Hi guys, i have a question. i have reached the daily reputation and i recieved 6 upvotes after that, will those upvotes be calculated over my tag? or just they will be vanished? sorry if its not a fair question

@Gerry ok thank you brother

@Gerry oh, so that was a key being destroyed... wonder how come yours is the only one...

@JasonC well, you got me there, totally missed it.

well played

Find another dinner

wow:

hd for the win

!!/blame

@ɥʇǝS It's Shadow Wizard's fault.

@QPaysTaxes well I was gonna say it was @TimStone's fault, but obviously Smokey knows best.

@QPaysTaxes was pointed to a host that Tim Post was renting, and then stopped; when that got reassigned, it was still pointing there.

the domain didn't lapse. It's our domain; we decide whether it exists, what requests to it do, etc.

The issue here is that the domain was pointed to a server that was being rented from someone else (Digital Ocean, if memory serves), which we then stopped renting.

That would've been a good time to also kill the domain, and I believe Tim asked for that at the time... But the request kinda got misunderstood or lost or something.

Anyway... All good now.

well, yeah, except for that.

@Mithrandir those bubbles surely give you lots of repz! ;)

@Shog9 can't the stats page just be hosted elsewhere? I mean, it's just a single page using the public API, isn't it?

@ShadowWizard donno, I've never looked at it

@Gerry it could.

I can actually probably try this for science

but it would just go to a http site I think

if they did https you'd get a warning it was fake
