I meant to say, I one day happened upon that weird site called 9joke or something and at that very moment, a gag about The Situation happened to scroll by. Upon which I learned about that appalling television programme that is called Jersey Shore.

I misspoke earlier.

Uhmmm...

@JoshC You know nothing!

@jadarnel27 What were we talking about?

@Pëkka How do you get the Eureka! hat?

Exactly.

@JoshC I honestly don't know

I bet it's one of those that only mods can award.

Or maybe only SE staff.

Perhaps Meta activity? A high number of status-completed questions=?

(Or status-declined, har har)

No idea

Give a bounty of 500?

I want to know how to get the Doge hat

everything else is irrelevant

winterbash2013.stackexchange.com/eureka

^ There it is.

I want to know how to get the elephant hat. Everything else is irrelephant.

@JoshC nope, Minitech doesn't have it

> Perhaps Meta activity? A high number of status-completed questions=?

No, Cletus doesn't have it

One day, Moderator elections will be decided solely by the merit of their hats.

I can't figure it out.

The hats are awarded based on activity since the bash, and you haven't answered/asked any questions since it has begun.

Maybe it's based on some random activity executed at a certain time.

I.... I just got Eureka?

I was just voting on comments and...

Use all comment votes?

@JoshC Do we have a comment vote limit?

If so, I'm sure I didn't hit it.

virt.bandcamp.com/album/ultionus-a-soundtrack-of-petty-revenge

30.

^slightly nsfw album art

Hrmph. I'm sure I didn't do anywhere near 30.

I just upvoted like three comments in a thread.

I guess i'll upvote some comments then ;)

I don't know why it wouldn't have triggered earlier. This isn't the first time I've voted on comments since the hat thing started.

and pretty much everyone would have the hat then too.

Yeah.

there is probably a random variable in it.

Nah, they wouldn't do that.

And even so, there would be a whole lot more of them floating around.

I just don't see a correlation between Eureka and upvoting comments.. I would have thought Eureka is posting a feature request or bug report...

But then more people would have it.

I do find it interesting that I got it whilst talking about it, though.

Maybe it is a mod-awarded hat.

I bet you're right.

Now, where's a mod we can press into service? ;)

haha.

Eureka!

Oh man. Best gif.

heh

I want to know how they did that

With a bunch of stop-motion pictures.

And some clever editing.

Obviously there's something there because the cat is clearly playing with something

little paper figures or otherwise

nah. The cat was just spazzing out.

One could conceivably do that with a lazer and a rubber ball.

LAZERS!

@UndotheSnowman LAZERS

There are a whole fleet of negatively-numbered chat users.

@3ventic worst chat bot name

but... but...

Servbot was the best bot name

...And we're collecting stats on Aviation.

\o/

Ugh, my parents are going to have a psychic over so they can attempt to communicate with my brother, and they want me to participate. -.- I'm going to make up some plans so I can be as far away from the house as possible at that time.

Hi guys, I'm no longer that crazy to post questions on meta. But what do you think about the possiblity to add some kind of alternative title of a question, in order to make it a canonical alternative for people searching for a distinct issue?

@stacker That's almost always a Good Thing.

@ElfSlice Currently there is no such thing

Oh, I thought you were talking about editing a title

my mistake

I'm aware of

Nice. I was 20 seconds away from getting 11 instant upvotes on SO..

@stacker Why not use the alternative way to describe the issue in the body of the question?

Many people can barely come up with one good title, nevermind two, so I'd hesitate to put something like that into the system.

Hi any mods here?

@qwertynl what's up?

As a second title? I was thinking rather of meta data which could be a second way to structure information like tags do

@AnnaLear Can someone explain why this answer was deleted by a mod?

I do not understand why..

Hi men (or women) can I ask a graphic card specific question?

@stacker I'm not sure I follow. What would it offer that currently the title + body + tags don't?

@cyril chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/118/root-access

@cyril Might not be the right place for that, but you can try

I would ask in Root Access

they love graphics cards

^

ok

@qwertynl probably because it's not really an answer. It's funny, but not that funny.

[.}

@AnnaLear did you click edit?

we must go deeper

@AnnaLear The community seemed to think it was ok. As did the OP (who is in JS chat).

You know what else is funny?

Some explanation might be necessary.... :-(

Genius

@qwertynl in short - it is meta, I don't think there is much fighting for a joke answer back.

@rlemon yeah

@rlemon :-\ idk. :-( A guy can try ^_^

@rlemon basically, this. a few folks chuckled. and then we're back to attempting to be on topic/serious.

Woa! @AnnaLear did you cut your hair? or did you always have short hair?

@AnnaLear It's kind of even funnier deleted because of who deleted it.

Such a Grinch!

@TimStone That's exactly what I was thinking.

status-completed

@AnnaLear Then delete some other stupid posts.... I just do not get it...

@rlemon I've had short hair for ... on and off 14 years now. give or take.

@qwertynl Stackexchange is inconsistent. Get used to it.

@qwertynl Check out this awesome answer meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/169205/…

ahh, ohh well.

@JoshC :-\

@JoshC that one's a complete answer :)

@AnnaLear I'm currently active on a beta site and I see similar questions get asked but they are too different too close them as dups. If a searching user would have the ability to drill down, it could improve things. (I'm a long time user of SO when I'm looking for real information I query by tags and sort by votes, to get the single piece of valueable info, (no offense))

"Yes, I agree" is never an answer. If you want to get pedantic, that's what upvotes are for.

You guys are not that helpful. I thought this was run by the community. If a bunch of users deleted it I would understand it more...

@rlemon err, thanks?

@AnnaLear i'm trying to figure out why I was shocked when I saw it

@AnnaLear Did you even read the question!?

sorry that isn't meant as "ohh well" in a bad way

...

did you have kittens in your old gravatar?

@qwertynl yes

@rlemon Yes.

@rlemon yeah

okay, that explains it

I saw nothing past the kittens

"What should I do in this case? Does this deserve a flag? How do y'all handle this kind of issue?" "Yeah. I agree."

...

@qwertynl it was funny, but it wasn't a serious answer to a serious question. Over time it likely would have been downvoted to hell.

@rlemon So I would have accepted that. but whatever.... Dictators rule all it seems...

community elected dictators*

don't forget that ;)

...

anyways, have fun Tavern. o/

we will

lost in noise o/

Did someone say noize

soundcloud.com/barenoize/lady-gaga-edge-of-glory-bare

@stacker Sorry, still confused. If they are different questions, what's the problem?

@stacker Also, you can link to other related questions in comments and they will show up in the "Linked Questions" sidebar on the right. There's also a "Related Questions" sidebar, but I'm not 100% sure how that's powered off the top of my head.

Question: With this new write API we're going to get, will it have comment flagging built in?

er

@UndotheSnowman not sure. maybe? eventually?

I want comment flagging. Pretty pretty please.

:D

@UndotheSnowman comments, comments everywhere

Comments, comments, in the flag queue where they belong.

@UndotheSnowman i use all my comment flags or try to daily

How about post flagging?

@hichris123 yeah I use those as well

@bluefeet No, I mean will it be in the new API?

I got this hat and I've no idea why

@hichris123 ah, nevermind then :)

I just want a button for "undelete that comment, because it was totally helpful and you're being a dick." Is that so wrong?

You should totally drop that and try answers.

aw, dad.

@Shog9 What about popular JavaScript libraries? Are there any that you would recommend we include in our answers?

@jadarnel27 jqueryanswers.stackexchange.com

@jadarnel27 I hear Prototype.js is good.

@Anna Part of me really wanted that to not 404.

Tor

@Shog9 Oh. Huh. Alright, I guess I'll check that out!

stackoverflow.com/…

Are those NAA's?

@hichris123 first one, yes. second, no.

@AnnaLear Aww, you took away jQuery answers. You should totally drop that and try jQuery.

Do just mods and 10K+ rep users review NAA flags?

2k+ users get them in low quality posts review if I'm not mistaken

but that isn't directly handling the flag..

I feel like I should be getting hats for sitting here not doing anything to earn hats.

Hats for everyone!

My phone wants to update itself to Android 4.3! :o I like how even though you choose Install Later it still starts downloading the update immediately.

@animuson What phone?

@hichris123 HTC One

@animuson Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.4 KitKat.

That code-name still cracks me up.

Why?

I've always found the name KitKat humorous.

I'm just weird.

How did I know that would get starred?

I don't see how you think KitKat is funny.

I literally thought to myself as I pressed the enter key, "Watch someone star this."

You're a mindreader.

It's aquired when you become a mod.

Man, Amazon has really been pushing the thermal laminating pouches in the Lightning Deals...

"What are the deals today?" - "I have no idea, but I betcha there'll be some thermal laminating pouches on sale! Everyone needs those!"

Are you saying that there's either a thermal laminating hat or an Amazon hat, @animuson ?

No, I'm saying this is like the 15th day I've seen Amazon list those stupid thermal laminating pouches in their Lightning Deals. ;P

Why would you even want one?

To laminate something? Maybe they're reaching out to the identification forgery market.

Imagine the conversation at the NSA: "This guy sure is buying a lot of thermal lamination pouches. Someone should look into him."

lol Why is everyone so serious here?

@qwertynl Cause you just want the hat. And that's no fun. At least do something for the community while getting hats. :)

@hichris123 I was. I was asking.

but whatever....

Silly hats... Trix are for kids!

@animuson Can you please remove the flag every 5 second limit for users with either tons of helpful flags or 1K+ users?

I'm not in charge of rate limits.

@qwertynl Silly qwertynl... Hats are for kids!

@animuson Oh, right, not a dev. // me backs away

@hichris123 :-P

3 minutes and the question still hasn't been closed? Come on.

There we go.

I can't even vote to close on MSO

@ElfSlice yeah, well, and whose fault is that? ;)

@AnnaLear Stackexchange's, for being so complicated I can't contribute to the meta!

I can't vote to close on SO or MSO, need moar rep.

@ElfSlice You need some meta EXP.

bleh

@ElfSlice You're not even on Stack Overflow?

@hichris123 I think I am. I've only asked on it like twice though and it was for homework in college

Shitty questions too.

I missed your account in network profile.

Nevermind.

I suck so much at programming I didn't even understand most of the answers I was given.

Oh God what

@TimStone Vimeo oneboxing pls

I was waiting to see if it got fixed, and it didn't. So <scans user list for nearest staff member> @AnnaLear the dropdown thingy icons for Aviation.SE are all wrong.

@UndotheSnowman noted, thanks
