Q: Make account merges propagate to chat

ManishearthWhen two accounts are merged, all the posts/votes are moved over to the "primary" account, and the other account ("sock"?) is deleted. The merge is propagated network-wide, so a similar thing happens on each site. But, this does not happen to the chat user. The "sock" chat user is kept, with a 40...

I swapped master/slave for main/sock. I wonder if alternate account would be more precise

Hi. I must be doing something wrong, when I try to add a new login (email + password), it rejects the email, any idea? I checked this:

Q: How do I change my login provider(s)?

ChristianI no longer use the service that I originally used to register, and would like to change the service I use to log in, or at least add a second account. Is this possible? How do I change my login provider or associate a backup method to log in? For more information, see "How do I add or remov...

 
@Rob what I did was #4 :D
I'll try the first link and will let you know
 
Rob
Did you initially register with OpenID - thus causing disconnected breakage?
 
No wasn't OpenID
 
Rob
I just use Google, with 2FA and temp passwords it's a great Account Manager - and if you get a new phone it's no trouble to re-register anywhere.
 
@Rob thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you, first link worked, what a workaround

@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Hey, not your fault:
 
10:11 AM
@Rob wrong sity and city. :D
(learned in Bar Ilan)
 
@JourneymanGeek neither am I. I am convinced that Autocorrect is one of the greatest threats to mankind and will eventually cause thermonuclear warfare. — Martin James 7 hours ago
The struggle is real
 
Meh. Autocorrect does more good than harm, so it'll be fine.
 
lol
> Release the nuclear bomb
Instead of:
> Release the nice bambi
Future president of USA, who is now 10 y/o, learning the ways of autocorrect.
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Well you could release the nuclear bomb first, to create the bambi.
 
So we still have at least 20 years, all good. :P
@Tinkeringbell that would be nambi
 
Rob
10:24 AM
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 The president of the school is named Emmett, so that worked out; sort of.
 
@Rob but he's not in the list
 
Rob
Witch list?

@Rob Are you all right? You look a bit yellow in the face

@M.A.R. not enough coffee cause this.
BTW, I'm covid-19 negative. :)
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 ART or PCR? :D
 
@JourneymanGeek CIA
 
(Work makes me stick a swab up my nose, swish it around in some liquid, and stick it on something that looks exactly like a pregnancy test every week ._.)
 
heh I saw you weren't joking lol, it's PCR. turns out. What is it anyway??
> SARS-CoV-2,RT PCR
 
"every week" ... because you can't test negative on Monday and be a superspreader by Wednesday /s
 
12:28 PM
@JourneymanGeek you do covid test yourself? That's nice, you don't have to wait or being at risk as you wait among people with high risk of having it.
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 its cheaper
 
But the test wasn't pleasant at all, he stuck the stick really deep in the nose. :/
 
@JourneymanGeek Your test results are in. Good and bad news: You don't have corona, you are pregnant.
 
@Tinkeringbell If anyone tests positive, we all get at least a week off
 
@rene bet this already happened, somewhere in the world..... :P
 
12:29 PM
@rene OH MY WORD. THE SCAAANDAAALLLL
 
@JourneymanGeek Well that's something! ... it stilll sounds about as safe as skydiving without a parachute though.
 
(also, I don't think you use nose swabs for pregancy tests)
 
@JourneymanGeek yeah, checking pee is so much easier. :D
 
@Tinkeringbell Oh, we also test everyone coming in, which is mostly truck drivers...
@Tinkeringbell If I had a choice of not working and getting paid... :D
considering all the fun at work at the moment, I'd do it.
 
@JourneymanGeek Like those are the only people you'll come into contact with... :/
@JourneymanGeek I'm disappointed to hear you don't have that choice :(
 
12:31 PM
@Tinkeringbell Well the alternative is looking for a new job, and tbh, I'm less worried about covid than my blood pressure and burn out right now
 
@JourneymanGeek I'm not known for following instructions. I just give it a go and see what happens.
 
@JourneymanGeek :(
 
@JourneymanGeek Fair.
 
Time off then? Charge batteries?
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Part of the issue is crazy work schedules and being understaffed
 
12:34 PM
Well you should draw the line somewhere... think of your own health. As you said yourself. :)
Amazon won't let their employees draw any lines; Hopefully, your company has better management. (better for employees)
 
Well - Its kinda a pile of related things that all cause me stress. I'm kinda reluctant to quit cause matchmaking was on hold when I didn't have a job. But I'm not getting anywhere anyway. And I'm too exhausted to do matchmaking stuff or look for another job
(Actually I'm mostly exhausted all the time lately..)
So getting suspected covid, and getting stuck in my room or a hotel for a month might not be too bad.
Getting actual covid is going to be variable levels of utter suck :D
But I wear a mask, carry a contact tracing token, and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary, mostly cause I'm too wiped out to do anything so... my risk is low :D
Outside working in a checkpoint
 
Not talking about quitting the job, just taking a week off, as you probably deserve anyway. No?
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 I kinda have been trying to - at one point it turned out we were all working over our contracted ours
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 I don't have enough leave, and we don't have enough manpower for me to take a week off at once
Mostly the latter
 
:/
!!/give manpower to Journeyman
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 No such command 'give'.
 
(heck, part of the issue now is we're lending one staff member to another understaffed team to cross train so... we're even worse off - and the solution is... more night shifts)
Not "maybe we don't have the manpower to do this right now"
 
Weak/lame mid-level managers then, who can't stand on their own...
Guess nothing you can do, bummer.
 
Well, there's always a choice
just need to pick the least worst one
 
12:55 PM
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 \o/
 
1:20 PM
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 PCR = Polymerase chain reaction....
Basically they take the sample, do some stuff to extract the genetic material they are interested in, and add chemicals to detect...
its pretty much the gold standard but pricy, so they tend to batch up lots of samples, and essentially do a binary search if they find there's a positive test result in the batch
ART is "Antigen Rapid test"
They mix your nose swab sample with a buffer, and pop it on some filter paper that has 'ink' that reacts with certain chemicals
 
1:42 PM
@JourneymanGeek heh OK.... and how/why you know all of this?! lol
Also does it mean PCR isn't accurate? :/
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 PCR is the most accurate
I mean, if no one has it, you don't need to dig further
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Government Propaganda :D
 
@JourneymanGeek ohh, OK. Got it. I think. ;)
@JourneymanGeek they explain those things?? Here they fail to explain who should wear mask and where..... :/
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 lol
Newspapers, TV, little advertising screens at lift landing, posters....
 
Amazingly, changing PM and government didn't help, on the contrary. Things are just worse.
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 this is a well oiled machine that's been used over decades
 
1:46 PM
@JourneymanGeek and all of this really helps? How many people are infected?
 
there's even a VACCINATION SONG
 
@JourneymanGeek huh? You mean for stuff like flu vaccines?
 
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 social engineering
 
I have not listened to this...
Bur yes. There is a vaccination jingle
 
2:17 PM
@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Here? EVERYONE! ALL THE TIME!

@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 How about this:

Invisible! Perfect.

Stack Exchange does use our site activity to target ADs, despite opting out:

Why does the parent user link show "Page not found"?
 
Because the user deleted their account.

On Information Security, the Community Ads post is still showing up in the featured on meta sidebar (at least for me), although the featured tag has been removed. Is this a bug?
 
@nobody nope, caching. That can last a long time, iirc

Q: Post remains featured in the bulletin even if [featured] tag is removed

TuringTuxThis question about nominations for Pro Tempore Moderators on Computer Science Educators Meta was a featured question, but was unfeatured on June 23. However, it sometimes still appears as featured on the main page of Computer Science Educators SE: This might have something to do with the fact...

Okay, so it sorta is a bug... But a known one, so also a feature ;)
 
7:31 PM
It's also come up when the tag is removed by a mod after the post has been locked (doesn't look like this is the case tho) on CGCC
 
@Rob Nice tan

@ShadowWizardWearingMaskV2 Looks like a bigger and better University. Recently in the news: jpost.com/israel-news/…

@Wolgwang The user had posted more than 999 messages, so their chat profile wasn't automatically deleted when all their main site accounts were deleted.
@Glorfindel I think a bug cropped up in your Wilson confidence rating script. It's now inserting Wilson links even after links to other posts' timelines in post bodies, not only after the one under the vote count. As an example, in the last paragraph of this post, the first part shows up as "This questionWilson" with the script enabled.
