@Manishearth Do you know if the latest version of ChatExchange should work on Stack Exchange chat? I've tried it, and I keep getting an error. It's working nicely with Stack Overflow chat.
 
On askubuntu I casted the last spam flag needed because that is gone now...
 
6:49 AM
Yeah, a coding question on MSE!
 
7:06 AM
We can have a new meme here:
@Matt If the system replaced every time with 'derpderpderp', I wouldn't care. It's as annoying as the pluralization "bugs". Somebody needs to bring out a giant clock to bang these people with :P — bjb568 6 hours ago

Does anybody know how to have a spoiler >! hide an image ![image][2] in markdown?

Q: Does the spoiler markdown work on images?

Jon EricsonIn an answer, I tried to use the spoiler markdown to hide an image. (It wasn't offensive, but it was unappetizing which seems worthy of hiding on Seasoned Advice.) But the image seems not to be hidden even if the text is. Here's an example: (Oh. Link descriptions aren't hidden either, it se...

Hehe
Says its not possible. But works in the question. :-)
Works only on some sites according to Shog9's answer.
 
It doesn't on mso, that is for sure..
 
It works on MSE now though
 
9:23 AM
Hmmm, the close reason on mso are limited. How do you close these type of questions? off-topic: not about SO or the software used? Or a custom reason: aka too localized?
 
A custom "Can no longer be reproduced" ...
 
OK
What is this, laziness? No effort? Or is search broken for some?
Really? I searched for http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=%5Bruby%5D+write+base64, the second result is the one I picked... — rene 5 mins ago

People are sometimes surprisingly bad at picking decent keywords
 
Maybe the confusion is how they should search within a tag?
 
Possibly
 
9:52 AM
I would love to write a post about searching but how would they find it?

@michaelb958 then why is it at +2 score?
 
Maybe it's useful spam?
 
@JanDvorak I'd love to know. As far as I can tell, it contributes little (doesn't even give the "suggestions" it claims to) and links to an unrelated site (networking? really?).
 
@michaelb958 I smell a ring

Q: Comment vote coloring is backwards

Doorknob High voted comments are in black text and look boring and unremarkable, while comments with a few votes have the red "hot" color on them. (I have no idea what is with the blue 25 :P) Could this be changed so that highly voted comments actually look highly voted?

 
Oh IE...don't make me hate you...
 
Too late
 
12:00 PM
while reading this question, I just looked at related question and their vote count. The questions with votes in tripple figures are showing the votes in two lines. I found a bug O.0

Q: Vote totals in suggested questions overflow

RikingWhen the vote count of a related question is 100 or more, the number overflows the box. Picture: (To be clear: "How does accepting an answer work?" has +622, and "FAQ for Stack Exchange Sites" has +1341.)

You're really not the first person to have found that bug
 
so many duplicates..
 
@Mat I am so disappointed :(

Brown.
 
I would almost argue that it's Blue now. But for the sake of history I'll let you have this one.
 
Don't give in to peer pressure. Blue is what the devs want you to say.
 
/me shakes fist at devs
 
2:02 PM
They made it blue in here so we won't notice the moderator infiltration.
Oh wait. Wrong room.
 
:D
Mod infiltration is also why we moved part of the discussion to this new place where they'll never find us
 
They'll never catch us now.
 
I'm not sure what happened but I'm using Google Chrome now...
 
Did you become .... sensible?
 
I hope not...
that would be bad...
very bad...

YAY WE HAVE NEW CLOSE REASON

Q: New Custom Close Reason: Specific Only To A Certain Site

Tim PostPart of the promise we made when we split MSE away from MSO is that users of MSE would keep most of their reputation and privileges. In order to make sure this happens, we must curtail migration of questions that are Stack Overflow specific to an essential minimum - reputation is lost on migrated...

 
That is only for MSE, right?
 
yeah
 
4:29 PM
Hmm, I see the "Cause I don't like your face" reason hasn't made it ....
 
Looks like just about everything in this search can be closed with that reason.
 
@Bart you can still use a custom close reason
 
That just will make me seem like an ass @JanDvorak. Which is correct, I just don't want it to look like that.
 
I'm not even close to close voting on mse and those migrations didn't help...
 
You lost a lot?
 
4:37 PM
I was over 2500 .. so 300 down
 
Hmm, I don't think I've lost any so far. But I can stand to lose a bit anyway.
 
I pay the price for answering practical quetions :-)
 
Mat
We should close that post as "pertains only to a specific site": it pertains only to MSE...
 
4:55 PM
Now we need meta.meta.stackexchange.com
 
5:24 PM
Anyone know how if there is a quick response team in Wikipedia for disturbing content?
 
You?
Yay for peer editing
But no, I don't know
 
I don't think so.
 
Not sure...
 
at least not yet
Watch that guy, though
oh, look at his profile
 
5:28 PM
yeh
that does it
flagged as spam
 
I'll try e-mail.
 
good catch, thanks. Also, I flagged the question
 
5:42 PM
(or at least advertising)
 
6:19 PM
Ugggh, can't believe there is no migrate from Meta.SE to Meta.SO for SO specific questions. I guess I'll let others deal with the close queue.

"However, a particular programming language might represent true and false with other values."
Visual BASIC anyone?
i.e. when true != true

Hooray for versions of windows that aren't as crappy as XP! —sent from Windows 7
It says something about me that the first thing I do after installing a new OS is I download chrome so I can get on Stack Exchange
 
10:40 PM
@TheGuywithTheHat Yep - it says you hate IE. :P

> Thank you for reviewing 20 close votes today; come back in 57 minutes to continue reviewing.
First time review-capping on MSE
 
@3ventic I don't have 3k on meta. That means moar helpful flags! :D
 
11:14 PM
Any 10ker on SO around?
 
11:31 PM
@hichris123 what for?
 
@JeroenVannevel I'm curious if there's any deleted answers on the C++ FAQ.
This brought it up:
Interesting that they (presumably) deleted all the other answers there. Usually, I think those questions work the best when there are lots of answers, that can be voted on, and then one accepted wiki answer that lists the best of the others in a standard format, and links to the answer for more detail. Then people can quickly view the whole list, and go into detail if they need it. Once the question stabilises, I suppose there might be some reason for deleting all the answers other than the main one, and replacing all the links. — naught101 29 mins ago
 
"Any"
There are 105 answers
There is exactly 1 answer not deleted
 
Wat?
That's... wow.
 
Yup, many highly voted ones. All deleted on March 2à
