@bjb568 uhh... have you just spliced two bodies of text together?

He should get the self-winding kind.

BTW, if anybody wants to research Piper Johnson from Cincinnati Ohio born June 24 2002 (probably), feel free. It's of my generations nature to overshare :)

@bjb568 O_O you don't know when you were born?

5:06 AM

that aint me

Sure isn't? The city and approximate age both match

Piper?

Seriously?

Ok, I disabled all other userscripts. (They were all compatible with each other, I have no other how they aren't with yours) Now it works again whenever I refresh the page, but when it's opened without focus it's not loaded.

@tchrist names are weird

@JanDvorak psssssssst she's my crush if y'all'd pay attention to my ramblings 19h/day.

@bjb568 That sentence has one word too many.

5:10 AM

@bjb568 Well... she lives nearby

Sure

Can’t you just see a vet about that? I hear they can fix this trouble.

I'm never going to sleep now that I'm distracted…

@tchrist that isn't how it works

@bjb568 sure is. They cut your balls off and you no longer have any thought about romance

And you live longer.

And you never go bald.

So we don’t have to shoot you.

Win–win–win.

Siiigh…

Hmm… sometimes when I think too hard, I idealize her and lose bearing of reality under layers of abstraction. It's like… weird.

Tighten up your ship.

Interesting experience, gets a +1 from me

STOP SPELLING THAT WORD WRONG DAMN IT!

@tchrist what ship?

Corrugated galvanised iron

5:18 AM

Corrugated galvanised iron or steel (colloquially corrugated iron or pailing (in Caribbean English), occasionally abbreviated CGI) is a building material composed of sheets of hot-dip galvanised mild steel, cold-rolled to produce a linear corrugated pattern in them. The corrugations increase the bending strength of the sheet in the direction perpendicular to the corrugations, but not parallel to them. Normally each sheet is manufactured longer in its strong direction. CGI is lightweight and easily transported. It was and still is widely used especially in rural and military buildings such as sheds...

I DONT GET IF

M-links do not expand.

Eww, so not responsive

Nothing like an inflamed corrigendum to put a cramp in your style.

Erratum

An erratum or corrigendum (plurals: errata, corrigenda) (comes from Latin: errata corrige) is a correction of a published text. An erratum is most commonly issued shortly after its original text is published. Patches to security issues in a computer program are also sometimes called errata. As a general rule, publishers issue an erratum for a production error (i.e., an error introduced during the publishing process) and a corrigendum for an author's error. == Errata sheets == The Chicago Manual of Style describes an errata sheet as follows: "Errata, lists of errors and their corrections, may take...

@bjb568 You’re stemming that completely wrong.

I don't latin

Latin countries are corroding American culture! (/s)

Me dijiste que sí tenías cursos en castellano este quadrimestre.

You grabbed for corrūgāre meaning to wrinkle, but my word had no telltale i in in. Rather, it was clearly from corrigĕre meaning to correct.

Oh, I better go to bed now.

I awoke to hummers trying to get inside my house. I went out and poured a pitcher of very hot water over the hummingbird feeder that was buried in snow and therefore inaccessible. I am again the most popular person in Colorado as far as hummers go.

I fear to look beneath the tarps at the garden. It is still well below freezing anyway.

I do understand where you are coming from, though. Entirely.

@PatrickHofman I was also commenting.... I tried to be less discouraging ;)

Patrick Hofman

@rene I upvoted :) .. and removed mine

This is a general problem all over the SE network. There is an endless stream of questions from people so unversed in the subject that it is beyond the SE remit, and capacity, to even attempt to begin to start to answer.

It is very hard to help these people.

@tchrist if they at least started from the position: What is my mistake and how should I improve....

12:51 PM

They need much more hand-holding than provided by the SE Q&A format. Sometimes a selfless member can be found in the main SE chat room for that site, but it depends. Some chatrooms do not take kindly to that.

Are there any errors in your console? Are you absolutely sure it's not another one of your userscripts?

I'm a mod on Ask Ubuntu. I've just been talking to somebody who wants to run a chat bot. They want to run this on all SE chat networks.

argh why is it not happening for me then

What about the errors in your console part?

JonasCz

You probably already tried this, but maybe create a new profile, and / or disable extensions ?

No. It's perfectly fine for a user to have multiple accounts as long as they follow the no-sock-puppetry policy — No interaction between accounts whatsoever, and not using the extra privileges to achieve more than they could with one account (e.g. voting). Like many users signing up just to po...

Hey, anyone know where the unminified chat front-end code is?

Or the code it uses to auto-linkify http://... links?

master-chat.js?

1:52 PM

Yeah, but that's the compressed/minified version.

... format it then

I can't magically turn all the 1-letter variable names back to their original names, and restore comments and such...

Andy

@Doorknob You aren't using enough magic then ;)

@Doorknob you suck as js programmer :/

@Doorknob That's your problem :p it's not like they would keep an unminified and un-obfuscated version in public, otherwise it wouldn't be minified + obfuscated!

1:54 PM

@Andy lol, I need more unicorns

@Braiam This is probably true.

@Unihedron Well, they do have a publicly available unminified version of the main site front-end JS.
