Hello
 
HI Y'ALL
 
Hi
 
2:28 PM
welcome.
 
@bummi gone
 
:)
 
@bummi What in that question lead you to think that it's an offsite res req?
It seems like the OP is asking if HTML5 supports video streaming..
One of his last sentences specifically says that he has solutions that all require some module to be installed, but wants to know if it can be done without installing something else.

People are upvoting this: stackoverflow.com/a/29701957/189134
 
@Lynn, but first sentence is "Is there any tool". It's definitely too broad. He's asking about video chat not video streaming.
 
I think I know my Spanish preparations now; lets see if I screw up.

@JonasCz Re: broad: I agree.

@bjb568 You’re making tapas for everybody? Cool!
 
2:39 PM
@JonasCz But I think the use of the term "tool" is just a poor choice of words, since his next sentence specifically states that he doesn't want to install any browser modules.
 
user259867
@bjb568 There is one reply there so far, from the well-known former SO user H2CO3... He replied with this:
 
user259867
for (var i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
    $('id' + names[i]).onclick = function () { alert(i); }; // alert 11 always!
}
 
@LynnCrumbling indeed, retracted, focused on Is there ant tool or is and Any other solution? leading to rec / broad

I'm currently working on a regex hammer instead.
 
@Unihedro So you can close everything as a duplicate of "do not use regex to parse html?"
 
4:30 PM
Yes :)
I want to close ALL the gimme teh regex questions!!
 
@Unihedro Build a regex to fetch questions that need to be closed. ;)
 
@ProgramFOX Can't be done. Regular expressions are not turing complete
 
s/fetch/match/
Maaaaybe that could be done :P
 
@ProgramFOX Such a program would not halt
 
HAMMERZEIT!
 
4:34 PM
@AndrewT. I never saw a dupe being closed in this room. Dupes require topic expertise and are more suitable for language specific rooms. Tavern closes OT/unclear questions.
 
^ Yeah; It's better to post in their respective language SO chat rooms.
 
@ProgramFOX echo s/fetch/match | sed -r s/tch//
@InfiniteRecursion The Java room has been dead every time I've gone in there
 
Why did that bot respond to halt with "HAMMERZEIT"?

I was so scared, I thought I was kicked :P

Q: How do I need to enter the StackExchange password so many times?

Vi.After, for example, cookie reset I need to log in again. Why for N StackExchange sites I need to enter the password N times? Isn't the account consoladated? Sometimes I can wait for some time and refresh the page and it says at a top something like "Oh, it's you. Click here for the login.", but...

Pfft.
 
user259867
I thought I solved the Activity problem simply by changing href of all profile links to have ?tab=topactivity at the end. But mysteriously, that broke the @-autocomplete in comments. 8-S
 
4:57 PM
@MARamezani How do I need... what?
 
@pizza My (moderately) high-scored bug report on the profile page master bug thread was deleted for being obsolete.
(obsolescence was assumed; no trace was actually left)
 
@Braiam I exactly had your reaction. Except for some swear words following it.
 
@MARamezani I thought logging out was the hard one
 
@Mooseman Raises hands Hey! I didn't ask that question!
 
@MARamezani I didn't say you did...
 
5:09 PM
Nevermind. :P Hands down
 
@Unihedro Speaking of the profile page master bug thread, please upvote this one: meta.stackexchange.com/a/253515/200235
 
"I expect SE to know it's me when I log in. So, it shouldn't be asking me for a password. C'mon. You can't write code for that?"
Perfect logic.
 
@durron597 Eh?
When you have the highest privilege unlocked tag badges are tracked.
 
@durron597 I did.
But I don't track those badges.

5:12 PM
Heh. Feel jealous guys. I'm active in a beta, so 4k means a 20k to me. XD
 
You shouldn't need to have 20k rep to set a tag badge as a goal
 
@durron597 tell them
 
@Unihedro That's what that post does

already voted though :p
I upvoted a lot of the posts in attempt to farm Sportsmanship.
 
@Unihedro There are no users with that rep now. Dammit. I thought I could find them.

why downvoted????????????????????? — vks 13 mins ago
 
@Unihedro So I have half a million reached, and vks has 70k reached. With more than twice the rep and a gold badge.
 
That's, immature, even for me. (16)
 
@MARamezani Hey i'm 16 too!
cough
 
5:19 PM
@Unihedro Hehe!
 
Sorry for the slight drop of maturity there.
@durron597 All they do is answer with (slightly; confirmation bias cuz of my negative opinion) substandard answers and rant in comments for as long as I see them around :p
I've seen them use the review queues, but upon review they're the kind I would drag into the robo room and bash them, but meh
not my loss

To anyone not following it, @JasonC and @EdCottrell are currently tied at the 10th/11th place cutoff, with @Undo only 39 votes behind out of 2600
 
@MARamezani The stick/carrot system can be tuned to reward different behavior. As it is right now, there is a 10:1 ratio between encouragement for an acceptable answer versus putting in a bad one. Also, there is a heavy disincentive to answer slowly in case somebody else answers more quickly and gets accepted. All upvoted answers in a question which gets an accepted answers could be awarded rep to coutetract that, etc.
