5:00 PM
Speaking of Twitter, apparently I haven't logged onto Facebook in a while, so they're sending me Classmates-esque "Something happened and you weren't there to see it!" emails.
 
Yeah, that crap is getting popular.
 
Social networks would be so much nicer if it wasn't for all the social crap.
 
That said, Facebook is a global weapon of e-mail mass spamhammorage for members and non-members alike, so what's so surprising?
"OH HI JUST TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU HAVE 8 BAJILLION PEOPLE WHO INVITED YOU AND AN ARBITRARY AMOUNT OF TIME HAS PASSED SINCE THE 5TH DID! I'LL REMIND YOU IN A FEW HOURS DON'T WORRY!"
 
Hmm, maybe I should get around to getting a frame for my diploma.
 
@badpssockpuppet I have a filter that automatically archives email from Facebook and marks them as read
@TimStone A diploma in...?
 
5:03 PM
I just turned off email notifications and rarely get anything. :P
 
@YiJiang I label them, then show them to people when they ask me why I don't sign up
@TimStone Oh, so you still get stuff after turning email notifications off? :P
 
@YiJiang My B.S. in Computer Science
@badpssockpuppet I didn't turn them all off. :P
 
@TimStone oh, it's just like mine!
 
@badpssockpuppet I have to use them, mainly because some of my classmates think it is a valid form of communication superior to email, SMS and IM
 
@badpssockpuppet \o/
 
5:05 PM
(except mine has the "Engineering" word on it too, does it make any difference?)
 
Hmm, good question. Is yours also ridiculously oversized? That's been my holdup on getting a frame so far, heh.
 
Bigger and badder, yo.
My diploma supplement sez "Laurea in ENGINEERING OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS"
I guess it still abbreviates to CS >_<
 
@badpssockpuppet Well, if 'computer systems' refer to real physical computer systems, then the answer would be no
 
hey, @badpssockpuppet, can you fix my 'puter?
 
@YiJiang Meh, the university gave me this 20 pages supplement which is supposed to explain what exactly it is I'm supposed to know now
@Shog9 What? Fix it yourself.
 
5:12 PM
Windows is saying updates need installed. You're an engineer, can you just poke at it with a soldering iron?
 
@Shog9 If only Windows problems were that easy to solve
 
@Shog9 Have you tried turning it off and on again?
 
(sorry, the "systems engineer" thing reminded me of a friend who used to work in Defense contracting... Pines for the days of debugging with oscilloscopes)
 
Otherwise I can poke at it and make the message disappear. Along with everything else, I hope that's okay.
 
PERFECT! KILL ALL BUGS WITH FIRE!
 
5:16 PM
 
@TimStone Maaan, ask for a reprint.
 
Where the hell do I hang that?!
@badpssockpuppet It's a work of art
 
It's all blurred and stuff, and it glows red.
 
Where you hang it isn't important. What's important is what you drink while sitting in front of it.
 
@Shog9 Truer words have never been spoken.
 
5:17 PM
That said, my piece of paper is more or less as large
 
user image
2
 
@YiJiang My codez not his codez
 
shudders
 
Oh wait they are he sent me his codez.
 
@YiJiang lmao, the one you cropped off at the end of that list is great too. "Javascript in a website"
 
5:18 PM
can i haz human debugger plz?
Oh wait, hang on a second, the related questions list is a little longer than I thought it is...
@Shog9 Can you nuke this comment thread please? stackoverflow.com/questions/5443584/…
 
wtf?
well, that has to be the stupidest edit war I've seen in a while
 
Huh, indeed.
 
@Shog9 Not an edit war, at least, not by my definition
 
seems to be arguing about cutting out the salutation. Which... Look, cut 'em out if you see 'em, but don't argue about it. It's not that big a deal.
 
I've flagged the comments, but I'd rather a mod come in and nuke the whole thing, because it would be stupid having only my comments left there
 
5:31 PM
@YiJiang They've been BURNINATED
 
@Shog9 I didn't want to, but... meh, forget about it and file under stuff that never should've happened in the first place
 
@YiJiang Honestly, the problem is with the titles. Editing is not a moderator only priv :)
 
@badpssockpuppet The problem is that the only sensible title would be the one that answers the question
 
Wiped. Ingratiating commented.
 
The OP cannot know what's wrong with the code, why would he be posting it in the first place?
 
5:32 PM
@YiJiang "I'm trying to do X but it fails at Y"?
 
But then editing in the title to match the solution would make the question moot, wouldn't it?
 
Besides what do you suggests the mods do?
 
@badpssockpuppet "I'm trying to attach an event but instead wiped out the Object prototype" Yeah, that'll work...
 
"Trouble with attaching an event"?
 
@badpssockpuppet I'm not, I'm just saying that a lot of these question appear on SO, and somehow when their titles are listed together, it becomes rather funny how many of these SO gets
 
5:35 PM
Problem is people don't bother editing low quality questions. I understand that it isn't easy with 3.5k questions/day ca., but...
 
@badpssockpuppet: do u have any idea on that iphone question , in this room
 
@SankarGanesh No, sorry.
 
Off to play frisbee golf. 'later...
 
I don't have an iPhone.
 
@badpssockpuppet :Me too, But i want to learn, it, No need to say sorry to me, it's ok
@badpssockpuppet: and @balpha: and @Shog9: Guys, Help me i was not able to delete my Question
When i click delete option it says Sorry, this question has answers and cannot be deleted; flag it for moderator attention instead.
(click on this box to dismiss)
 
5:44 PM
@SankarGanesh So, uh, flag for moderator attention instead then
 
@YiJiang what text i have to flag, saying that i want to delete this question
 
Your question
 
@badpssockpuppet:This is my Question
0
Q: Need Help in Running My Java App

Sankar GaneshI had created a Java Swing Application, I want to run my applications, in all System, Suppose if a System, does not have JRE, then i have to install JRE using Installer in program without aware of the user knowledgeable that the JRE is installed.

 
@SankarGanesh Click on the flag button, then type in something like 'I need this question deleted'
You may have to explain why, though
 
@YiJiang Ok, Sure, Thanks
Why that question only i cannot able to delete, is that question locked
 
5:48 PM
No, its because it has answers with upvotes
When you delete a question, you also delete the answers, and those answers may be of value, so you can't delete questions with answers with upvotes, or if there are more than 2 answers (I think, check the faq for the exact numbers)
 
Thanks

@ChrisF: Hi, How do u do,Seeing you after a long time
 
All right. Been busy
