Morning
...huh!?
 
Afternoon
 
6:20 AM
Coffee?
 
Not today. Working from home and I don't like the coffee here ;)
I'll stick with tea.
 
got another (free) phone line earlier
got lost under the main shopping district of singapore about .... 3-4 times
 
Working from home is not an option today. I have to get myself to the office in 6 to 8 ...
 
I'm usually at an office too, but I got stuff to do here this afternoon, so I asked for special permission to work from home... which isn't so special since it's always granted XD

Q: walahala: Decentralized Wallet

WalahalaWalahala removed the cross border decentralized blockchain platform limitation in crypto exchange. Many have tried but failed since two and a half years. Crypto Cross border trade was one of the major issue in the decentralized exchanges.Walahala removed this limitation with their newly build te...

This is clearly spam, and has quickly accumulated no less than 9 favorites.
 
maybe bots are favouriting it....
 
Could someone look into this? I'm guessing a bunch of alternate accounts are being used because the spammer believes that the favorites button makes the question look more popular.
 
just spamflag it
 
@JourneymanGeek That's what I thought, but the poster actually replied to me, calling me "sir" and telling me it's not spam, and that I can visit their website for more info (lol).
(Although he deleted his comments)
 
some spammers are occationally human
 
6:57 AM
@JourneymanGeek Yeah I already did.
@JourneymanGeek Interestingly, I saw a spammer for something weird like sex dolls, after getting their spam questions/answers deleted, make an actual contribution to an HNQ question on World Building. In broken English of course, but it was a real answer. I found that really cool.
 
@forest if it survives till next sunday we can see who favorited
 
@Magisch It won't survive that long. Why would it have to wait? Don't mods have access to that info?
 
ugh, that user registered 21 days ago...
 
It means there are at least 9 other spam accounts.
 
@forest mods probably do
 
7:00 AM
Why would lowly users like us need to wait that long then?
 
problem is I'd rather spam flag than custom flag here
 
I did add a spam flag.
 
I'm guessing you're just looking through recently created users?
 
7:02 AM
ya
 
Is there a way to flag those individual users if they haven't made posts?
They're clearly accounts made specifically to assist in spamming.
 
@forest no
 
custom flag any particular post
doesn't matter which one really
 
ok
@Magisch Well in this case, all the users who favorited it made no posts.
But as Journey says, I guess it's not possible.
Just might want to keep an eye on those accounts as possible future spammers.
ok sir.. But on a serious note walahala is here to revolutionized the exchange world.. You wil see soon... — Walahala 13 secs ago
heh
 
7:09 AM
looking down
 
Aaaand it's gone!
 
@MikaelDúiBolinder LOL!!! hahah... really...so sad it's funny. Perfect example for a the bad trend of SE: give us false hopes. — ShaWiz 22 secs ago
 
o_o
 
should automatically report next occurence
 
7:11 AM
@Magisch What does that mean?
 
triplee added the name of that project to the watched keyword filter
 
@ShaWiz Was that really necessary? I mean, you're one of the people complaining people aren't talking to you, but then you talk to them like that...
 
ah
I didn't know what the "removed" meant. I don't think the spam contained that word.
Oh I see you just asked in Charcoal. Beat me to it.
 
I presume it's due to the spam post starting with Walahala removed the cross border decentralized blockchain platform limitation in crypto exchange.
 
Oh I see, I didn't notice that. Well, that's not a term that will always be correlated with that spam.
I'm guessing \W is whitespace.
Would be better to watch for the domain, imo.
 
7:38 AM
@Tinkeringbell it's just annoy me that devs say "sure, we're on it" then nothing happens. That is all. Feel free to remove the comment.
In that case it's not a bug or dev, but still.... the concept is the same.
If you don't plan to really fix something.... don't give false hopes, that's all.

@ShaWiz 'We'll look into it' is a lot different from 'we're actually going to do it' and you're treating it like the latter. You could've just asked for an update/end result of looking into it!
 
@Tinkeringbell so update, reply to people asking nicely for updates. Don't ignore.
And after 6-8 years, remove the planned/deferred tag.
 
....it's from 8 years ago, I kinda highly doubt it's got any sort of priority for answering questions about it.
 
@ShaWiz we'll look into your critics, thanks
 
@MetaAndrewT. lol spot on
 
7:41 AM
@ShaWiz Does the person that wrote that answer even still work for SE/SO?
 
@Tinkeringbell he did at one point
I don't remember if he's still an SRE but he was
 
@Tinkeringbell don't think so. Like I said... it's just example of a much broader problem.
 
voted to close SE as too broad...
 
@ShaWiz and how would constantly saying nothing will ever change actually change anything? :/
 
@ShaWiz Well, sure. One of the things that sucks about meta is that if you write an answer like that, then switch jobs... nobody might update the question/answer anymore. But that's not something you can fix by leaving comments like the one you left.
 
7:43 AM
He left SO in Feb 2018.
 
practically there's a few issues with IPV6 support
while doing it on one server is simple, doing it on all the servers might not be. I'm not sure if the CDN does IPv6
support on the consumer side is... spotty
 
We have the new question about IPv6. Let's be a little bit patient and see if something happens with that one.
If so, we can change the tags on the other one if necessary. Or link to the newer post, as that has the update.
 
or close the old one as a dupe of the new one ;p
 
That's an option too
 
Support for 5GHz is also spotty...
 
7:49 AM
@JourneymanGeek why nothing? Ideally, I'd expect some short "We're still looking into it", or "That's no longer in review", etc, comment replies, they can even be canned to save them time. It's not like we ask hundreds of "Hey, is this still planned" per day. meh
 
@ShaWiz well, folks kinda do that...
 
@ShaWiz True, you don't even ask if this is still planned, you complain about not hearing anything.
 
and I think its a little about picking your battles, and your audience.
 
There's a difference.
And it needs fixing if you want updates.
 
So, one of the issues I see at present is...
we're going IPV6 would be cool
but... what's the hook?
 
7:52 AM
Well, convince me if v6 will be useful for me... (like, 200% speed improvement!?)
 
@Tinkeringbell ohh... I used to ask in the past. You weren't here yet.
 
@MetaAndrewT. it isn't
 
At some point, I stopped because I got 0 replies. (think I asked 10-20.... dunno)
 
Actually on the end user side, its super useless.
If you're running a server, or absolutely need everything routable... hell yes, its awesome.
Its really cool
 
@MetaAndrewT. It only makes life easier for ISPs. End users to a lesser extent.
 
7:54 AM
@forest a lot of ISPs would prefer to just throw everyone behind CGN over ipv6 support
 
It helps with the IPv4 shortage, but if you already own an IPv4 address, it doesn't matter.
 
@Marshmallow 56
 
@JourneymanGeek CGN violates some important RFCs, which can break things in weird ways.
 
@forest I consider it ... ewww...
 
@ShaWiz 72
 
7:55 AM
The only reason I'd consider the local ISP that does CGN is they also offer cheap static IPs... actually almost at the same cost.
@forest CGN is "cheap"
 
Well so is a Yugo but that doesn't make it good.
 
someone made the yugo
 
@ShaWiz Well, still. I'd much appreciate it if there were fewer comments to delete that just complain, and don't ask. If you're tired of asking and getting no reply, I'm sorry things turned out that bad. But what people are doing now doesn't get them anywhere either, it only makes things worse as the reply will be more silence :/
 
then someone made the tata nano, which didn't have the excuse of being made by cheap communists, and caught fire.
 
@Tinkeringbell anyway.... point taken. I just have some buttons that can be pushed.
!!/coffee
 
8:04 AM
@ShaWiz brews a cup of jQuery for @ShaWiz
 
@SmokeDetector eww why not Angular? ;)
 
Interesting map :P
Shows the users of a certain traffic app going on vacation XD
 
lol nice
 
Yeah, though I don't know if all those people that use the app agree XD
 
@ShaWiz Ah, but its other people's buttons that need pushing ;p
 
8:08 AM
Sometimes pushing buttons can make pretty things :)
But often it's bad
 
@Tink you know Kim van der Wielen?
@Tinkeringbell my buttons are different. :D
 
@ShaWiz Less pink? :P
 
@Tinkeringbell that too... :P
 
you can't push those buttons
 
@ShaWiz Should I? I know about another Kim that's famous here, but she's not a suitable topic for this chat room :P
@JourneymanGeek You need to push them together to make the bouquet!
 
8:09 AM
@Tinkeringbell she posted the source of that traffic pic
 
@ShaWiz Heh, no. Someone else on my Twitter timeline retweeted it ;)
 
(looks like she works on that app you mentioned)
@Tinkeringbell ohhh lol
 
Been a while doing a comment spree on MSO... adrenaline rush!
(and I fall into the Dark side again...)
 
grabbing @Meta to take him into the Light side
 
@Tinkeringbell Lots of Kims...
@ShaWiz Nah, come to the dark side. We've got some cookies.
Not a lot, though, because I ate most of them.
Sorry.
 
8:12 AM
@Mithrandir Hey, at least there's some left! Everytime someone invites me over, they already ate all the cookies!
 
Well they're rude
 
Of course! What else would they be doing on the dark side?
 
@Mithrandir if you're Dark, then I'm Pink.
:P
 
baking cookies.
but they're a bit on the dark side...
no one said the cookies would not be burnt
 
@Tinkeringbell You should at least be affable if you're with the Dark cookie crowd.
 
8:20 AM
I'd rather be ineffable
 
<insert Crowley GIF here>

@ShaWiz probably not. 65
 
@Marshmallow too old for me.
 
11:01 AM
@Marshmallow Ola to you too
 
11:14 AM
@ShaWiz دخ غخع ئهسهدفثقحقثفثی صاشف ه سشهی. Heh, you knew some Arabic, right?
WTF LOL
> There is a good deal of smoke in your head
 
11:30 AM
@Marshmallow did you mean دخ غخع ئهسهدفثقحقثفثی صاشف ه سشح.?
To be honest no, I don't really know.... GT knows... I did learn Arabic at middle school (7th to 9th grades) but don't really remember any of it except the very basics.
(e.g. know the meaning of common words and can detect letters like aliph)
hmm.... avatar here is disturbing a bit:
https://meta.stackexchange.com/users/554649/user11668626
 
Cool... office renovation, mass downvote moving downstair...
 
?
 
Vote to Reopen Office?
 
I vote to delete the universe
 
I vote for Dukakis!
 
11:42 AM
or at least to roll back just after the Flood
 
The Flood was local
Only Earth
Cross world Flood would be... big.
 
luckily humans haven't spread past Earth
 
Not that we know of.
But who knows.... maybe Inca did it?
hehe oops not the drink :D
 
But if you want to reset the solar system, just trigger a ... sol-pernova.
Operation Solpernova. I coin that.
 
@JohnDvorak how much you charge for using it?
 
11:44 AM
CC-BY-SA 4.0
 
I vote for 5.0 then
 
Is there CC 5.0 already?
 
There will be
Time is not an issue
 
Let's reflect on how old we . . . you . . . are.
 
Or were
 
11:45 AM
I also coin Sunpernova, just in case, and forbid its use
 
I'll coin Slurpnova then.
 
I wanna copyright "liek".
 
@ShaWiz my office gonna have renovation on my floor starting from tomorrow, so all of us gonna have to move down
 
@ShaWiz I suspect any attempts to change anything would meet with unhappiness and downvotes ;p
 
should I call mass exodus then...
 
11:47 AM
Google image result for slurp nova...
 
Oh, I've also purchased the royalty rights to the act of shortening "you" to "u". Those who do that, now infringe my copyright.
 
I love it!
 
no you-turn
 
@ShaWiz What... is that? Hot chocolate with a marshmallow floating in it?
 
11:48 AM
@MetaAndrewT. how far down?! Hopefully not the basement?! Or worse.... the... company cage......
:D
 
@JohnDvorak Oh yeah? I copyrighted ™ and ©.
 
@JohnDvorak yes @Marshmallow appears happy in there.
 
My next best bet would be beet soup that's been soaking for far too long.
 
So white and light.
 
I decline to comment on any allegations pertaining to hot chocolate.
 
11:49 AM
Who says it's hot?
Maybe the @Marshmallow is hot and the @Chocolate is cold?
 
I decline to comment on any allegations pertaining to chocolate, whether or not sexually attractive.
 
no, the @soup is hot, but the @meatball is cold...
 
I think I'm done with my breakfast today... and I'll probably skip lunch, too
 
@Marshmallow it's too brown to be attractive for me
 
Hey, meta references are copyrighted under the name of Deadpool
 
11:51 AM
@ShaWiz that's racist
 
@ShaWiz that's foodist
 
@JohnDvorak well each and his own taste :P
 
@ShaWiz that's colorist
 
@MetaAndrewT. I know!
cries
 
uh oh, I think I'm gonna get flagged as unwelcoming...
 
11:53 AM
@Marsh for the record, you were the first to mention the "s" word! :D
@MetaAndrewT. sd why
 
@ShaWiz [Meta Andrew T.] making ShaWiz cries on 7829159
 
@ShaWiz sardine?
 
no, saxophone
 
@Marshmallow close
The "s" word with three letters!
 
11:57 AM
No S or s ^
 
sax and violins?
 
Sax and the City?
 
@MetaAndrewT. Six
 
@ShaWiz sip, sit, sap, pas, son, sum, sir, sin, saw, see, sop, 'tis, sob, set
 
@Marshmallow all wrong
 
11:59 AM
That doesn't have an S
 
Sha. That's a really bad one.
 
Six is the magic number. It's the number of input/output channels the human body got. :D
 
@Mithrandir ahh, I see...
