@Glorfindel Also, RE your user script to add links to chat profiles and network profiles for users: can you please make it possible to add translated versions that will show instead of the English versions for the international sites?

@ShadowWizardChasingStars late answer, but another way is to search the Charcoal HQ chat history for the site name - occasionally there may be context in the transcript.

@DavidPostill well, looked spammy enough, the user posted several answers in same time with links to websites and not much details beyond that.
 
11:47 AM
Nice room
 
12:28 PM
Yeah can be even nicer if you'll join us sometimes for more than a comment that it's nice. :P

OK, let's try proactive approach.
!!/coffee Gok
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars brews a cup of affogato for @Gok
 
Might wake them up... :D
 
2:40 PM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars didn't you learn anything from your manga?
Tell them that yous saw someone who looked super strong, or that a martial art tournament is starting soon.
 
goes to power level over 9000
 
@JourneymanGeek just so you know.
btw... @Catija ... if you will reuse that hat, please call it "Over 8000!" next time (continue below).
 
but....
9000 is bigger
 
Can't wait for people opening bug after bug, trying to make you fix that when your version is actually the correct one.
 
.... or just implement "Over 8000" only on スタック・オーバーフロー :p
 
2:57 PM
or anime
 
@SPArcheon yeah, but looks like it's "one time chatter", so my efforts would go in vain. ;)

Let’s start the year on a high note! We’re excited to announce our 14th Stack Gives Back.
 
No way
Onebox lives
And not even Ryan
dies from utter surprise
Pity there's no list of "give back" posts, they didn't put tags in the past. Wonder how it changed over time.
 
3:16 PM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars hm
I feel like there's a way to look at em
 
🚽
 
waiting for the usual question "Why totals no multiple of 100"
 
give back to the community by fixing/improving some of these long-standing problems
 
3:31 PM
Why are theyre two links under the help menu that link to stackoveflow.co with different link text
 
3:55 PM
@JourneymanGeek Its actually 8000. 9000 was a dub error
@SPArcheon In this manga panel it says 8000
 
@JourneymanGeek sure, search and pray for the best.
 
@Gokuカカロット I know, and that is why I suggested the hat name should be fixed only to giggle every time someone then would try to tell them that they got the number wrong...
Nope, the number is right, the translation got it wrong.
(and not even every translation btw)
 
@SPArcheon I heard funimation translates it to 9000 because of the lip movement
Also which hat??? Where can I get it?
Its kinda obvious too. Kaioken X2 Goku, who should be at 18,000 with the mistranslation, should be comparable to vegeta which he wasnt. So its easily seen as an inconsistency
 
@KevinB known marketing trick, repeat the same thing over and over, until the person gives up and try it.
Surprised only two items, and not 10, as that's where they want people to go and buy their products.
 
4:05 PM
Guys, I've been suspended from chat for 4 days. How come can I talk here then?
 
@Gokuカカロット different chat server
Meta Stack Exchange got it's own chat server.
 
Wish MathSE had that
 
@Gokuカカロット nah only SO itself, and all the rest are cramped under se.com chat server.
 
MathSE should probably get its own server soon
For one it uses the most MathJax out of any website
 
@Gokuカカロット while I have no idea at all what you and @SPA are talking about, guess they mean a secret hat from the recent winter bash (2022) called "Over 9000!"
 
4:08 PM
Dude where did you get this?? That's a super Saiyan hat!
I literally have the perfect profile picture for that hat
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars that was just the help dropdown, it's definitly in the navbar/side bar at least 8 times, if not 10
 
@Gokuカカロット LOL. no.
Really no need to have different server for each of the 200 sites.
Huge waste.
 
(and clicking tour/help center shows you yet another)
 
@ShadowWizardChasingStars not all 200 but 3-5 big ones
 
140
Q: Winter / Summer Bash 2022 Hat List ☃️ 🏖️

GlorfindelWinter / Summer Bash 2022 has started and the hats are listed below. As always, there are only two answers: one for the secret hats, and one for the regular hats. The secret hat list will be updated as we learn them. Please, only edit the secret hat answer with definitive and correct triggers. Th...

You should browse meta a bit. ;)
@KevinB hehe, yeah.
 
4:11 PM
I want the super Saiyan hat/hair but I'm gonna fail miserably at that. Oh well let's do it
 
i was just kinda surprised to find it in the help dialog at all, like, if someone's looking for help why would they want to go to a product squeeze page
 
@Gokuカカロット umm. Winter bash is over. You can't get any hat.
 
Then I'll just edit it over my profile
 
We should create our own anime
Call it Attack On Stack
 
4:38 PM
@Gokuカカロット Made in Stack.
more fitting considering the horrors you often see on Meta..
 
And a sequel titled "Stack Is Back"
 
@Gokuカカロット or board game
32
A: Would you play a Stack Overflow board game?

splattneI found this one. It's called "Programmer's Nightmare." I think we could do better.

 
5:06 PM
@ShadowWizardChasingStars For some reason I would expect that a Stack game would end up very similar to the AVGN one...
(a game that manages to be even more uncouth than the original internet show it is based on. A pity, because the idea of a parody of every old videogame bad design was good)
 
5:36 PM
@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog do you mean you want this to be 'profil de charla'?
 
mumble....
 
@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog thanks - it doesn't work right now for me either, but that may be caused by a Violentmonkey bug:
in Charcoal HQ on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Jan 6 at 17:49, by Makyen
@Makyen Violentmonkey Firefox userscript issues: Workaround: in Violentmonkey's "Advanced" settings, check "Synchronous page mode" checkbox. Known fix: downgrade to the prior version and disable Violentmonkey updates in about:addons. More detail: The recently-updated, current version of Violentmonkey, 2.13.5, has issues with loading userscripts in page mode, which is how most userscripts need to be loaded, due to how most userscripts' are written. The workaround of checking the "Synchronous page mode" checkbox resolved the issues in limited testing, but more testing is needed to be sure that's really sufficient. It is known that downgrading your copy of Violentmonkey to the prior version, 2.12.13, will solve the issue. The most recent older version, 2.12.13, can be downloaded from here for Firefox. You can see all released versions of Violentmonkey for Firefox on addons.mozilla.org. If you downgrade, you will probably want to disable automatic updates for Violentmonkey from Violentmonkey's extension configuration page which you can access from about:addons. [This has been edited to remove an inaccurate explanation and to provide the workaround that doesn't require downgrading.]
I'll probably get to that after my skiing trip ...
@JourneymanGeek yeah, somehow that needs just a single newline between the real content and the [.] references (cf. meta.stackexchange.com/posts/64912/edit/… ). I'll have a look why it matters in this case - this situation is so common in old posts that I don't understand why we didn't encounter this before ...
 
@JourneymanGeek since they mentioned UI localization...
@Catija ^ JourneymanGeek would love this as an April fool :P
 
5:53 PM
no
2
 
i mean, there's been worse ones
some not even jokes!
 
Worse than Gibberish on the site instead of text?
I don't understand fancy fonts and not trying to understand, it's waste of time, so just considering them Gibberish and moving on. :D
 
6:28 PM
@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog that worked, but I have a better fix and edited that now in. Thanks for the pragmatic quick fix.

@Glorfindel I was hoping that the architecture to allow for translations could be built so one can go to others with more language experience and ask them to fill the actual one in.

@MetaAndrewT. Is there any way to force Android to show a "send feedback" option for apps that crash? I was temporarily using my original Pixel XL phone (running Android 10) as something went wrong with my Pixel 5a so I got to try the app again; it seemed to be working fine but kept crashing after a minute of use.
