That's... a bit extreme @bwDraco to call this a security issue. It's not a security issue, and unless someone has a very small data allowance and a connection with very fast speeds...
But it doesn't "deny" service. It just might make a user run through their data cap. That's like saying that poorly designed ads that download 1 GB/hour are running a DoS attack because they can run through the data cap. While true, that's not a DoS. It's just an effect of running through the data cap.
That's... still not a DoS.
All I'm saying is that this is not a security issue. It's annoying, but calling it a DoS is way overblowing it.
Don't you think that's a bit extreme? I mean, if someone deliberately did that, sure, but the odds of that happening... most people are probably just either misguided or didn't realize or didn't care, not malicious.
I already have a Magento 1 site but now I want to set up an additional Magento 2 site on the same server with that Magento 1 site.
Is it possible to do this thing?
Recently I've moved from a large 1080p screen to a smaller one, and I never noticed this before, but holy crap, oneboxing is incredibly annoying if you don't have a large quantity of screen space.
Please implement a feature where the user can choose to turn off oneboxing.
@bwDraco BTW, I would also point out that thanks to some "oh, sooooo good it is almost stealing" data plans, here in Europe I have seen multiple operator in many countries putting both a monthly data cap and a daily data cap on a consumption plan. Some have managed to put the daily limit in the 200MB range....
An off-topic question asking for the meaning of "noise". How ironic.
In our team we found some strange behaviour where we used both static and final qualifiers. This is our test class:
public class Test {
public static final Test me = new Test();
public static final Integer I = 4;
public static final String S = "abc";
public Test() {

@JamesENL The age of the old myths and gods is over. Pan, the Fairy Queen, Shog Cthulhu and even Skeet... they will all soon been forgotten as the prophecy has foretold.
@ShadowWizard this is an actual window in Canterlot Castle.
Now, enjoy the rest of your life... always wondering...
Are those MLP fans simply insane? Are they actually the only sane ones on the planets, having understood that they can safely ignore what others think??
Or.... are they actually the Illumiati, silently governing your life and constantly exchanging message thru apparent candy colored ponies show references?
Uh.... could anyone please constructively explain what is so awful about either of the two questions I posted today that they both got an avalanche of downvotes? They weren't proposals so I can't even explain that away with "people disagreed with the proposal" - they were yes/no questions with no intended answer .
They weren't even theoretical "let me post random question about hypothetical situation that can never occur and thus useless to ask", as they stemmed from actual situation which happened and wasn't clear how to handle
The "Does repeating non-nice statements originally made by the someone at oneself violate “Be nice” policy?" seems almost like asking "Can I be rude if others are rude", and probably has been regarded by most as this.
That would be either a joke question, a troll or a nonsense one, so I assume it was downvoted because of that.
the other one.... I think most categorized it as "you are either trolling or overthinking"
@DVK I am starting to fear that there are several users on MSE who vote along the lines of "gah, not this again". I don't like it, but there's not much we can do about it. Meta votes have always been weird, and on MSE they seem to make no sense whatsoever sometimes.
Then again, they can always explain it with a "I don't think this is useful to discuss".
@DVK 7 downvotes (on one of them, where I posted a comment) isn't really "avalanche of downvotes", plus you got 2 upvotes in there. All in all, nothing awful, people probably take it as "this should be allowed/this shouldn't be allowed" and picking a side by voting instead of taking part in the discussion.
Given that Stack Exchange, Inc. is based in the USA, how does it justify the policy of allowing someone to edit another person's question?
If someone objects to the grammar, formatting, etc. of a question, they can post a comment. No one should be allowed to edit another person's submission.
Th...
Even though it's a discussion about the "how", people see it as picking side and saying "letting people edit another person's questions is not justified" meaning asking them to stop editing. Of course, they are not really happy with that...
In your case, it's as if you say "don't repeat non-nice statements originally made by someone else at oneself" - to which people on MSE disagree. Get the idea?
@ShadowWizard your theory seems plausible, but it seems to be contradicted by the fact tat people UPvoted answers that say "do NOT do this", so how can they be said to disagree? If anything, it seems people who downvote for some reason assume the question endorses such behavior. Eh.
@rene I hold that one of the big advantages of Stack Overflow's format is that it doesn't require knowledgeable people to also be talented writers, diplomats, or even particularly well-adjusted people. Of course, this advantage doesn't necessarily translate to meta.
not for me, noticed someone who commented on (most) all other answers saying his was better
they were axed in the past, because then they were "you should delete this and look at mine" type comments, and he seemed to learn not to ask for others to delete them
now he's just cross linking back to his own answer in a few other questions (in comments)
