@Feeds - The speech was dynamic and entropic, with a backstory deeper than the deepest ocean; where they're a certified Scuba Instructor.

@Mithical Reconsiders

@Later I'm afraid this discussion has clearly outlived its fruitfulness so I will have to stop engaging with you.

> It has been a very difficult couple of weeks for the Black Community and our Black colleagues. So I want to start this post by reaffirming what we shared publicly this past weekend: We must work together to end systemic racism. We stand in solidarity with our Black employees and with the Black community. Black lives matter. In this post, I am sharing some next steps that Stack Overflow is taking in order to leverage our place as an indispensable tool to the tech community in order to enact positive change.

Well, I should maybe just be naturally, perhaps unfairly, be skeptical about the honest intentions of such actions from a company that has nothing to do with what triggered the events or what will stop them in the hopeful future

That's a minute of my life I'm not getting back

I guess $ is $ though, with any sorts of intentions

While we're at it, maybe donate to Notre Dame

@JohnDvorak to be honest, other users, much more active and veteran here, were chat banned for much less. Just saying.

And now to what @Tink asked for, even if not knowing she asked for it....

I call it "The Drawer" ^

rene

That is at the grocery?

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

And this isn't in its full capacity, it used to contain more stuff.

@rene lol no, my home.

It was all bought from grocery, at some point. :D

rene

Wow

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

Also it used to be a total mess, I organized it about a week ago. Kids make sure order doesn't prevail. ;)

(each goes to the drawer and take one thing, once or twice a day.)

rene

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance To be honest, when I still lived with my parents between me and my dad we did eat all the cookies my mom bought from the weekly market. That was in the 1 hour after she returned home. My mom only watched and said at the end: "This was the cookie alotment for the whole week."

Yes, we had such a "drawer" at our place. It stayed empty that week.

@rene lol! Well, luckily my wife is much more strict and won't allow such things. :D

@M.A.R. heh. Maybe scan user avatars, and give +50 bonus to those who... answer certain criteria.

Tinkeringbell

If the work infrastructure fails miserably and you can't connect with anything you need for work, it's okay to start playing animal crossing, right?

Mithical

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance No.

M.A.R.

@Tinkeringbell No.

@Mithical No.

Mithical

@Tinkeringbell Yes.

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@M.A.R. No.

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance nO.

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@M.A.R. .oN

@Tinkeringbell doesn't the game require internet connection?

M.A.R.

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance As a kid, I'm offended!

I only mess up my own room

Never the living room

Looks around My chair is surrounded by trash

Tinkeringbell

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance It's the work stuff that's broken, not the internet ;)

I settled for tea time though

M.A.R.

@Tinkeringbell How convenient squints

Tinkeringbell

Mithical

Ugh. I completely overslept again.

I was having a strange dream about ducklings living in my yard.

M.A.R.

Because of the Putin icon?

He's hypnotizing

Mithical

no

M.A.R.

@Mithical I wish my dreams were pleasant

I haven't had any pleasant dreams lately

Mithical

I rarely dream in the first place, and this duck thing was completely out of the blue

M.A.R.

7:48 AM

Mithical

good goose, take them out

M.A.R.

@Mithical It's a swan

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@M.A.R. not my kid! ;)

@M.A.R. actually The Drawer is part on the kitchen.

Mithical

@M.A.R. technicalities

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@Tinkeringbell so fix it instead of slacking! :D

@Tinkeringbell Sting?

Good song. ;)

Still relevant... anti war song.

@Mithical more likely you don't remember your dreams.

Think we all dream always, but rarely remember our dreams. No?

@M.A.R. how many dreams you remember? Any tips?

Tinkeringbell

8:01 AM

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance Not my job ;) But it's fixed already. Some days, I dislike competent people :P

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

No......... they killed YOLO..... :(

Mithical

The chocolate yogurt things?

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

Yup

Dec 12 '18 at 15:57, by Shadow Wizard

It reached only 1.8% of the market last year...

Mithical

Welp.

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

Milki has 91%

So to cut loses they close the line of production. :(

sobbing

@Tinkeringbell lol

Tinkeringbell

8:09 AM

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance You might be able to hoard some stuff so you can survive until you found another thing? :P

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@Tinkeringbell nah it doesn't freeze well, plus my freezer is already full. And in fridge it can survive about a month only.

Guess I'll buy a couple today, to say goodbye properly...

meta.stackexchange.com/q/349240/369802 < Still a bug, or support?

πάντα ῥεῖ

support obviously

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@πάνταῥεῖ not really, there's still a bug that the chat profile links to deleted account.

When account is deleted, it should also delete associated chat profiles.

πάντα ῥεῖ

Hmm key

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

Switching to different parent site is a workaround.

Mithical

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance Not necessarily.

Unless the entire network account is deleted the chat account should stay.

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

8:57 AM

@Mithical well yeah it gets complicated on SE domain, so maybe auto switch parent site to the oldest account.

Still, link to parent site leading to Page Not Found is.... not expected.

(and of course the side effect of not being able to chat.)

BTW, the stuff posted here isn't random, it's Ethereum transaction.

long time spammer...

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@Tink interesting, when you delete your avatar jumps to the front as if you posted a message.

It can be used to identify who delete stuff... worthy of a feature request?

Tinkeringbell

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance Drop it is drop it, at some point that means delete it because otherwise people keep thinking whatever they're doing is okay, or even if it's not okay they still have their messages here ;)

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@Tinkeringbell agree in general, but those last messages were just a good bye, without mentioning any past events directly.

Kind of slamming the door when leaving, and you just took the door away. :D

rene

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance yeah, I have seen that before. It is sub-optimal. Same goes for SE staff that steps in to moderate

Tinkeringbell

10:02 AM

I don't mind too much as long as Shadow doesn't shout it across the room :P

I wonder how many people really know without others telling them. And the easy workaround is just saying 'no' before deleting stuff :P

@ShadowKeepsSocialDistance We don't slam doors here, do we?

rene

Slams door shut so nobody can escape ...

Tinkeringbell

That's a different door :P

And I don't know if you want to be in the same room as me without lunch! So you better open that door fast so I can go have some :P

rene

10:27 AM

Yeah, that sounds bad ...

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

10:45 AM

@rene yeah well that's less of a problem. In a crowded room in tense situation, it's not good if they all know what mod deletes something, it shouldn't be public info.

If it's staff, well, less friction.

@Tinkeringbell TINK DELETED A MESSAGE!

Like this? ;)

Tinkeringbell

Hahaha like that, yeah :P

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

lol

@Tinkeringbell only because there are no doors left..... :D

(which pose bit of a problem in the toilets...... ;))

Tinkeringbell

Of course. I was expecting the toilets.

Shadow Keeps Social Distance

@Tinkeringbell why? Noisy stomach? :P

Tinkeringbell

Horrible temper :P

Oh, like me without a dessert.

Must get my sugar after every meal.
