@Glorfindel Not a duplicate. The duplicate target (the historical lock FAQ) says that the way to request changes to a historically-locked post is by making a meta post. This post is the specific request to do so. Please reopen: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/330385/…

@SonictheAnonymousWizHog The edit history is a mess: migrate, close dupe, reopen, edit to make clearer, close again, reopen. Only then is it finally properly dealt with. 🔁

@MetaAndrewT. I see the hat!
 
Yeah, Winter Summerbash on Anime.SE :p
 
@canon no, frustrated person.
@MetaAndrewT. Summer Hat!
@fbueckert but didn't you pay them already, i.e. you'll just lose your money?
 
8:30 AM
lol stop being so close to Den
 
9:27 AM
@Mithrandir oh hey, forgot to ask yesterday... how did it go? When will you have results?
 
@Mithrandir oh hey, forgot to ask yesterday... how did it go?
@ShaWiz How did what go? The military tests or whatever?
It would be so weird to try to qualify for the military
 
@Marshmallow yup
yesterday, by Mithrandir
...oof. I'm looking at the practice psychological test that they give you when you go into the army, and a bunch of it is word association stuff... but my vocabulary in my second language can be limited at times, so I'm going to fail that badly.
and...

@Tinkeringbell https://www.nbn.org.il/aliyahpedia/army-national-service/pre-draft/joining-the-israeli-army-tzav-rishon-first-notice-and-drafting/
You don't try to qualify, you try to improve your chances to serve in a place you won't suffer too much in.
 
@ShaWiz That makes sense. Same here.
Compulsory military service SUCKS.
@ShaWiz English is his second language?
Or is he referring to Hebrew?
Pretty sure he's an alien, so first language would be Martian.
 
@Marshmallow eh, didn't know you have it too. So you're going too? Or did you get a pass due to your kidney issue?
I mean... you're 18 now, no?
 
@ShaWiz I interpret it as I'm too awesome for them.
 
9:39 AM
lol
 
@ShaWiz 20.
21 in December.
 
@Marshmallow think he arrived from USA as a kid/teenager, so his first/native language is English, and Hebrew is his secondary language.
@Marshmallow yup
@Marshmallow maybe Marshmallowian
@Marshmallow oh, you grow up fast. :D
Any plans how to celebrate 20?
 
Thank you. Not only in altitude but also in length . . .
 
@Marshmallow really?? You still grow that late?
:P
 
@ShaWiz Pretty meh about celebrations. The heck does it even mean anyway.
@ShaWiz Or continuously
 
9:42 AM
@Marshmallow go somewhere fun with family or friends
 
@ShaWiz we only infiltrate planets with one agent.
 
Better abroad, can inside your country, e.g. hotel, spa, etc.
Just... have fun, good time, and lots of cakes. :P
 
That's lame. Why does it need to be a specific day on which I basically did nothing but pee?
@ShaWiz Shakuakua or whatever it was.
 
@Marshmallow don't forget poo. It's as important, if not more.
:P
@Marshmallow that's not a cake!
 
@ShaWiz Don't want to get too specific on the details
But I maybe did pee on the nurse . . .
 
9:45 AM
@Marshmallow You did in Den
 
Den is a luxurious bathroom.
 
@Marshmallow actually.... I think that while inside the womb the waste goes through the umbilical cord, so that's unlikely, unless the nurse holds you for long hours. :D
 
After birth dude. Everything before that is classified.
 
@Marshmallow yeah with milk, cupcakes, and insane bots. ;)
 
Hence luxurious
 
9:47 AM
YUp
 
Why is this conversation so weird?
 
@Marshmallow Because you take part in my weird questions!
Any normal person would have just ignored them. :D
 
Are you Mossad?
 
whistles
sending spy recruit form via email to @Mar
 
I'm sure you can have despicable intentions for intricate details on how I defecated this morning.
Induce mass diarrhea
 
9:50 AM
Sure I have!
But selfish, not for my country. :P
adding another record to Log of Really Useful Details
 
why did the den leak into the Tavern?
 
@rene Kenny had a leak
 
kewl
 
Looks like leak is fixed. :(
!!/blame
 
9:54 AM
@ShaWiz It's Mithrandir's fault.
 
Yup
 
10:51 AM
@Mar thanks, you inspired me to eat Shakshuka for lunch.
 
Shaku-shaku
 
The word origin is "to shake" since it's done by shaking the eggs in the pan with all other ingredients, mainly tomatoes. ;)
I made a mistake though by adding hot peppers... they're too hot for me. :/
Luckily the cold coffee helps. :D
@rene needz 1 moar
 
11:25 AM
@SmokeDetector why

sniffing
Finally no smoke! :P
 
or less anyway
 
meh only two? It's not even smellable. ;)
Is there a way to see list of bugs/requests that turned into ? Probably only SEDE... @rene ?
They keep throwing bugs into that "review" queue, but I suspect only very few ever actually getting done.
 
@ShaWiz yeah, posthistory for type 3 and 6 (tag edits)
 
 
1 hour later…
3:18 PM
@ShaWiz Yeah, paid for it, but I'd be demanding a refund if I scrapped it.
 
@fbueckert well... dunno about your place, but here "demanding refund" means long court battles that take years and cost thousands spent on lawyers. :/
(and you usually lose since the company got better lawyers.)
 
@ShaWiz I feel like people would be a bit more reasonable up here in Canada, but, then, I thought they'd actually communicate better and not drag this thing into such a massive, drawn out affair in the first place.
 
And even if you somehow win at court and judge orders the company to pay.... most of the times the company never pays.
 
But I have the product; I wouldn't let them recover it until I got the refund.
 
@fbueckert yeah, true. We'll see. :)
@fbueckert how much is it worth? Is it really important for them to recover?
 
3:26 PM
MS Access!?
 
@ShaWiz A good chunk of change. Well into the five digits.
Important for them to recover...probably not? They have a lot of it, but it'd probably make someone else's job quicker with less product delays if they can salvage mine.
 
@fbueckert eh, quite a lot indeed.
@MetaAndrewT. where?! hides
 
They probably wouldn't want to recover; they'd have to pay someone to come take it off.
And they had to pay someone to put it on in the first place.
 
Don't they have their own dedicated employees to transfer those?
 
Contractors, pretty sure.
 
3:30 PM
hmm.. weird.
 
Had a chat with the guy putting mine on.
 
Offered him some coffee, I hope? ;)
!!/coffee guy-putting-product-on-@fbueckert-roof
 
@ShaWiz brews a cup of Affogato for @guy-putting-product-on-@fbueckert-roof
 
hehe does it ping? ^
 
Nope
 
3:31 PM
:(
 
Sadly, didn't offer coffee. Mostly just talked about what he was doing.
 
Gave him a tip?
Here it's not consistent.
 
...Is that common? I don't think that's something we do here.
 
Some give, others don't...
 
Guy just came and did the work. Left when he was done.
 
3:32 PM
Well, when it's food delivery most people give tip. But when it's something they transfer/install... it's less obvious since they're paid by the company for that.
 
I do some freelance contracting on the side, and I don't quote prices that I wouldn't be satisfied with.
 
Yeah makes sense indeed.
 
But then you get into this, "sharing" economy, where companies abuse contractors, and I can see why there'd be tipping involved.
Me? I can tell them to shove it. Others needing the work? Likely not so much.
 
Well it's really case-by-case issue, i.e. every company is very different in their policy and approach towards contractors.
So that one you talked to was satisfied with the company and what he's doing?
 
Sounded like it, but was careful to thank me for the opportunity to do the work.
 
3:37 PM
So polite. ;)
 
The company I hired says they're going gangbusters, so, not sure if that's his personality, or there isn't actually as much work as they say there is.
 
4:12 PM
I probably scared Megan with my earlier comment and now a Community Manager has to deal with me ;)
 
Welp, followed up with solar company to see what the results were of the electrician inspection. Was promised a call. Didn't get one.
Guess I get to be the client everybody hates.
 
Yeah, I have your number in my blacklist, sorry.
 
Then I suppose I don't have to fix your house? :P
 
:D
 
4:32 PM
So utterly disappointed each time I find a good dupe only to realize after close voting that I don't have a gold badge in so my close vote is kind of dangling there ...

man, I'm digging this "Dark Reader" chrome extension.
My eyeballs are saved from the searing light backgrounds of the internet.
 
6:22 PM
Well this one is weird. Are they registered on Carchoal?
Aldo, stackoverflow isnt for opinionen-based questions, it's one of the close reasons there — Epodax 9 hours ago

@Marshmallow now deleted but they posted a new "question".

@ShaWiz Went okay, I think; not sure when I'll get the dappar scores etc back. They're sending me to the military eye doctor, though.
@Marshmallow My first language is English.
