Hm. My inbox just blew up

12:37 AM

@JourneymanGeek In a good way? :P

@Luuklag Different folks just have different writing styles, I think

@Catija That game was a classic :D

@V2Blast oh, still reading through :D

so far one rude message and @ShadowTheKidWizard being surprised, so mostly good

But also the usual "Oh wait, busy post dropped when I was asleep" :D

and more importantly, I need to work out how it fits into my workflow since I dumped bookmarks for follows a while back, which is why my inbox exploded :D

@Luuklag Cause we're couth.

@V2Blast Apparently not any more :(

> Saves has been temporarily disabled network-wide due to some site performance problems. These problems didn't appear until partway through migrating existing bookmarks into saves. We've temporarily reverted back to Bookmarks.

@JourneymanGeek hehe why was I surprised? ;)

@JourneymanGeek ideally, "followed post" updates would have their own inbox, or at least a new inbox tab like it used to be back in Envelope days. With all due respect, your own posts are more important, not to mention my pings! :P

lol sonics canonical question already attracted a NAA

Meta Andrew T.

the mystery is, why from someone who just joined today...

8:21 AM

Can't we just ban the username Jose ;)

tripleee

it's a pesky spammer, they used to be called Alberto for many months!

@Luuklag this "question" is bad idea, but meh, I'm no mod. Did what I can, i.e. downvote and comment.

@tripleee yeah true, I remember Soy Alberto being a reason

@ShadowTheKidWizard I don't think its bad, however I don't know how useful it is either.

tripleee

next thing you know they'll change it again, maybe to Pedro or Pablo

@Luuklag it will just attract answers asking about the Saves feature, or reporting more bugs in it, and serves no purpose since the announcement is clear enough already.

All in all, it would create more confusion rather than reduce it.

sigh, people using code formatting for things that aren't code again...

what's wrong with that?

its called code-formatting for a reason, not name formatting ;)

Meh. Dreft is called 'afwasmiddel', but it also works fine for laundry.

I need a more convincing argument from you than that :P

Tide pods look like candy, they don't work the same ;)

9:21 AM

This is somehow scarry, Arqade now gets questions on roblox sim games ? :P

@Luuklag Now we need to determine if code formatting is like Dreft or Tide pods, then.

Feeling old this morning ^^' retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/questions/25315/…

chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/9314690#9314690 < I had the same feeling yesterday :P

@curious the good old days where you needed a dozen floppy disks to install something

or when you would ask your friend to convert a dvd to a multi-cd set, as you didn't have a dvd reader on your computer.

11:11 AM

lol

11:23 AM

@Luuklag I said old, not nostalgic :D

@SPArcheon and? What's wrong with that? Guess you can ask in their meta to nuke the tag... ;)

@ShadowTheKidWizard should have put a little emphasis there...

Issue is not "roblox". The issue is "sim game"

@Tinkeringbell oh! lol... Now folks will think I'm a parrot in disguise ^^

@Luuklag yeah, Windows needed around 50, the installation package was very heavy, literally. :D

@SPArcheon but that's what roblox is made of.

@curious At least you're red too ;)

11:30 AM

@ShadowTheKidWizard you.. have an idea of how those work?

Glorified cookie clicker, with tons of in-app purchases

@SPArcheon no, but does it matter?

@SPArcheon that's the scary part, sure, and how they make money. But isn't it the way most games make money these days?

@ShadowTheKidWizard sliding scale of "at least you get some actual content"

Define "actual". :D

I need a hand. There was another product named teams before the current one right?

Introducing Channels: Private Q&A for Your Team

@JourneymanGeek Channels?

Kristina Lustig on July 11, 2017

This post refers to “Channels”, a product which is now called “Teams.” Here’s What We’re Working on and How You Can Get Involved On Stack Overflow, a question gets asked once, answered, and then becomes a central point of knowledge for thousands of others who read it on our site. But what about developers who…

naw

another thing called teams

unrelated to channels

by SO?

@curious yes

should be ok though, I MIGHT have confused it with documentation

which is good enough for my needs

@Rob meta.stackexchange.com/questions/382600/…

I think I saw SO for Entreprise as a name too

12:35 PM

@JourneymanGeek yes, I'll look for old references.

@curious Different product 😅

@ShadowTheKidWizard at this point its more "did I get senile and confused" than needing it for a post

cause SE's killed off enough things in the past :D
