hmm
I'm wondering if there's value in adding wikipedia or actual site links to the unsupported/user-tested browsers meta.stackexchange.com/questions/56161/…

@JourneymanGeek OP might have less than 100 rep so it will collide with rep requirement.
Ideally, the system will auto appoint the user with most rep if there's a user with over 100, but...
@Aibobot what do you mean? To browsers like Brave? Don't think so, those who need to know (i.e. using such browser) already know, and it's one Google search away.
Got a better one
plz-delete 15 hours old (!) certificate meta.stackexchange.com/questions/331589/… @Bart @rene

@ShaWiz I run falkon and Vivaldi

@JourneymanGeek and?
 
Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
Vivaldi is blink based. Falkon runs some QT fork of chromium

oh

Lol. About half the unsupported browsers on the list are me ;p

Netsurf failed horribly
No JS support. In 2019
 
ShaWiz

Think any browser starting with "Net" will fail.
Netscape was the first and made it a curse. ;)

At this day, "no Javascript" can be used as a selling point. Not that there's much actual demand, but it still sells better than as a known limitation.

Some of these frigging Toshiba tools are nuts: there is an important notification about your diskdive hmm, okay, what could that be? Let's click to find out: Your HDD is working properly. Now I wonder what else is working properly and more importantly: Not having seen that alert before, does that mean it wasn't working properly before?
 
ShaWiz
ShaWiz
lol
 
Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
@JohnDvorak true but there's a lot of other odd quirks and you can't get on SE on it
@ShaWiz this is odd. Also runs their own rendering engine. And annual releases
@rene it is fine. Now. Said the computer, omenously

@ShaWiz You know... Getting an electronic fly swatter will do more than wishing ;)

8:03 AM
meh... office is open space, it's too big.
But when we clean up it gets better.
(the room, from food leftovers and coffee cups)
 
Tinkeringbell
Tinkeringbell
Yeah. Sounds like it may need cleaning then
 
ShaWiz
ShaWiz
ATM it's fine. But those flies can arrive any moment.
One coffee cup in nearby desk, but totally empty so it's not attracting flies. :D
!!/blame @Shree for sleeping
hmm...
 
Shree
Shree

Tinkeringbell
Tinkeringbell
@ShaWiz Oh, then my desk is more messy at the moment. Nothing food related here though ;)
 
ShaWiz
ShaWiz
@Tinkeringbell well my desk got waffles, but closed inside container.
And the Shekels Mug

@JourneymanGeek someone appears to troll close flags, targeting Sonic and Glorfindel legit questions. Worth taking a look?
 
Tinkeringbell
Tinkeringbell
@ShaWiz @JourneymanGeek I know that one... I'll clean the queue. They're already suspended :/
I'll keep an eye on it, they'll the flag ban eventually ;)
 
ShaWiz
ShaWiz
@Tinkeringbell oh they cast it before? Didn't notice the queue indicator.
Wait... suspended user can flag???
If so, they shouldn't be able to.
 
Tinkeringbell
Tinkeringbell
Scratch that...
I got the timestamps wrong ;)
They can't raise more flags ;)

10:29 AM
oh
Good, otherwise this answer would be wrong: meta.stackexchange.com/a/125271/152859

Yeah, sorry. I should've said I had already handled that user! :P

Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
@ShaWiz ah sorry
Workking today and I got saddled with a thrio of off cases I didn't know who to foist off to
I hate doing helldesk
 
ShaWiz
ShaWiz
Being able to flag while suspended is like being able to harass random people while in jail.
It's quite obvious the suspended user will abuse the flags. Most of the times.
@JourneymanGeek all good parrot jumped into the wagon :D

A: Each close vote should punish the caster by taking away some of his reputation

Glorfindel This is extremely unfair and I know that the contrarians do it because it costs them nothing. Can you prove this? I (and I think most users) do it because I want to make my voice heard in a democratic voting process where the community identifies questions that duplicate existing content, ar...

@Glor's like an instant Feed for interesting or bizarre experiments on meta sites.
Was the hardwarerecs experiment because there are not enough close voters, or that there's too much OT? @ArtOfCode
Which is the same thing really. Depending on how you look at it.
 
Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
@Marshmallow yes
@Marshmallow the best part is at this point, the worst thing you can do to the OP is.. upvote the answers

@JourneymanGeek gr8, thx. i will accept ur asnwer sir

Shotguns. We should do away with our lame P250 pistols too, and grab 'em shoutguns.

@Marshmallow AQW send those users to HR/SR... and there are not enough close voters...
 
Marshmallow

Shoutgun? BRB heading to meta
I was gonna say "this guy sounds familiar [link to profile]" but I saw them suspended
I wish people had more productive uses for their time than posting unpopular opinions on meta and shouting at the screen. Presumably.
And chatting on a probably empty chatroom.
 
Tinkeringbell
Tinkeringbell
Hmmm. So, crochet?

You crochet, I read meta rants

@Marshmallow :) I'm actually not sure if I saw this on the site itself (I'm flagging lost soul questions there now and then), but experiments like those are often announced in the Teachers' Lounge as well.

Nah... I can't crochet, but I can meta...

@MetaAndrewT. I wonder what a crocheted meta would look like ;)

@Tinkeringbell and that's why you are a mod.

11:34 AM
@Bart Because I have the patience to untangle yarn? :P Nah. That can't be it.
There's a Facebook group of people that help others out with untangling 'yarn barf' though. I was thinking of those people, they like doing it so much, that people can send their tangled yarn over and they'll untangle it, then send it back!
Unless that's an elaborate scam, to get free yarn.

@JourneymanGeek It's possible that Peter uses a semi-automated script to edit posts; he's published the tool he uses for editing
And yes, it appears according to his editing rules list that "stack" and "Stack" map to "Stack Exchange".

stackoverflow.com/users/1114/distressed - "Currently abstaining from meta due to legal threats from Stack Exchange Inc.". Seriously?

Given that user's... interesting past, I actually could believe that.
"trying to hack the site" certainly might get you a legal warning.
But... probably best not to dwell on it too much.

I consider it a feature, sometimes I'm reading a post that gets deleted and the post gets greyed out before I finish, so I click a link, then hit the back button on my browser, and the deleted post is there and not getting removed automatically. But that's just me. — Davy M 3 hours ago

@PeterMortensen - "Tweet" in the Twitter sense gets capitalized

@Mithrandir Usually I see it used in lowercase, even if it's a proper noun
Actually, wait, Twitter's branding guidelines page uses it in uppercase form. So your version is correct; Peter's editing rule list needs to be modified.
