@J.Musser What do you mean by "you couldn't"?

Sam

@J.Musser What have you tried?

J. Musser

It doesn't ping unless the name self-finishes after you start typing...

ProgramFOX

That's not true; you don't have to appear in the self-finishing list to really be pinged.

J. Musser

I've missed several pinged chat messages because I wasn't on. That's weird.

@hichris123 They want you in the tavern. http://chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/2385028#2385028

There's a superping, that should get him.

@J.Musser I found the exact ping rules: meta.scifi.stackexchange.com/a/939/31259

J. Musser

@ProgramFOX Nice; thanks!

ProgramFOX

18:08

You're welcome!

J. Musser

What do you do on a site with only one active mod, and he doesn't migrate a question even after 5 people close it for that, and wait, and then I flag it for mod attention, and nothing happens?

Braiam

@J.Musser maybe the target site didn't want it...

rene

does anybody know why a $('#id').append($('<span>')) works in chrome,FF,IE11 but NOT on IE8?

Braiam

@rene jQuery 2.x?

rene

No, 1.9.1 just verified

Andy

18:23

is the LQP queue slow for others? It's taking upwards of 30 seconds to load a review for me

J. Musser

@Andy Wow.

rene

@Braiam ah got it, $('<span class="awesome" >') is not appreciated by IE8

Undo

obligatory ^

Gah, chat hates me

J. Musser

I'm using chrome.

Undo

me too

rene

18:31

@Undo thanks for reminding me ;)

J. Musser

I hear internet explorer is faster.

Undo

@J.Musser it underflows and becomes fast.

rene

@Undo I'll take that to my customers

J. Musser

@Undo I've used chrome for a long time, no complaints.

Braiam

@J.Musser compared to previous versions of IE, sure

J. Musser

18:32

...well, very few.

Undo

@J.Musser When I have a complaint, I do this.

J. Musser

@Undo smart.

How do find what version you're using?

Undo

@J.Musser chrome://help/

J. Musser

Ah, there it is. Version 37.0.2062.103 m

Undo

37.0.2062.94 here

J. Musser

18:35

@Undo Ah.

Went from dsl to a Comcast business cable. What took 2 hrs, now takes 2 mins. Or less.

Undo

nice

I do that every time someone brags about their internet speed ;)

(internet speed at WWDC)

J. Musser

@Undo What you got?

Undo

Not as good :(

Andy

That looks like my speed at home

:(

Sam

I'm sure mine's something like -10.72 Mbps.

2

J. Musser

18:42

Mine never goes under 15 Mbps download. Usually about 40-60, seems like.

Sam

Oh...

J. Musser

@Sam Hahahahahaha!

Sam

I can't believe my up speed is better lol

rene

I would try the wifi of the neighbours

4

Sam

@rene Excellent idea. powers up kali >:D

Ben Collins

18:47

@J.Musser I TW business cable and it stinks. paying 3x as much for this as I would for a residential service that would be 5x faster

"business cable internet" == "same service level as residential; less throughput; 10x the price; contracts required"

craptastic

J. Musser

@BenCollins Actually, they put up the cable for free for buisness; were going to charge hundreds of dollars for residential.

Braiam

J. Musser

And the residential stuff doesn't have as good of service.

Undo

waits for someone to flag something on SR

I'm bored.

Ben Collins

@J.Musser the marketing materials for TWC say the same, but when I talked to the sales person, I asked more specific questions and I concluded the service was no different. sigh.

Unihedron

18:51

@Undo Answer questions on SO :)

Undo

Yeah, I suppose I could go do that.

Unihedron

or watch /realtime for potential spam

Ben Collins

one of the prices of living in a rural area is having limited ISP options

Unihedron

help out jan :)

Undo

I'll never win an SO election without 10/20k.

goes to find something to answer

bluefeet

18:52

goes to delete @Undo's answers

Undo

Bad bluefeet! Go delete some of the things I flagged earlier!

bluefeet

flags, smags

I'm swimming in rainwater today, flags are not on my radar today

Undo

Loan me your diamond and I'll do my best to make a dent.

Unihedron

Loan me your diamond and I will burn the CV queue to ashes.

J. Musser

@BenCollins They put business as higher priority, and it is never down for more than 5 minutes. The residential was sometimes down over an hour, the guys said it was because they expect residential to be just entertainment.

Ben Collins

18:54

sounds nice

Unihedron

(prepares to take on a 72 hour marathonic reviewing expenditure)

bluefeet

@Undo and @Unihedron you'll both get burned out

Undo

yeah, I know I would

Unihedron

I disagree..

Sam

I agree to disagree with that agreement.

J. Musser

18:57

Oh, my internet speed is slow! I'll try again.

Undo

@Unihedron Trust me, I thought I wouldn't ever burn out before I got my SR diamond. Then you kinda realize that SO would totally burn you out if you tried to do too much.

Sam

@J.Musser It can't be any worse than mine.

Unihedron

@Undo Hmm... I trust you. But I still want a diamond.

Undo

Go for a smaller site first, that's my advice ;)

Oh, more advice: Don't try to get a diamond. I did that a few times and it doesn't work and makes you sad. Just let the shinyness come to you.

J. Musser

Unihedron

18:59

lol, ok :)

Undo

;)

J. Musser

@Sam ^

Maybe I need to reboot the router.

Sam

Is it just me, or does that graph look wrong?

"upload 3.72", but the graph shows an average of ~18.

Undo

usually speed tests like that show the end speed

J. Musser

@Sam Ah. Don't know.

It usually uploads very fast.

Sam

19:04

Either way, wanna swap isp? ;D

Unihedron

@rene -29... (+10/-39)

TGMCians

bad

poor @rene :P

J. Musser

@Sam If you buy me a new one.

Unihedron

The answer was insighted and eccentric but it's not well-received, alas!

rene

Nobody understands me, the story of my life...

:)

J. Musser

19:07

@Sam The number shows the end of the graph. which is 3.72. The max is 36.06.

Sam

@Unihedron The axiom of this rather unfortunate situation...

@J.Musser Ah, that explains it.

J. Musser

@Sam The average is about ~18.

Sam

Nice.

Unihedron

19:10

@Sam Wheel of Blame says it's @Shog's fault.

J. Musser

@Unihedron Wrong, I spun it 3 times, c# each time.

Sam

yesterday, by Sam

@Unihedron Blasphemy!

Anyway, I though it was always Bart's socks'sese'ss'es fault.

J. Musser

@Sam Well, go curse at the wheel of blame.

Sam

@J.Musser Nah, I'm just gonna read through the room's bookmarks (lol).

Chat hates me.

Santa Claus

@Undo Did you like it?

Undo

@SantaClaus Heck yeah

So. Much. Stuff.

Santa Claus

@Undo I haven't been there in quite a while. The last time I was there (I was about 9) my attention span was about 40 seconds tops.

Undo

yeah, it's tough is you don't understand what's significant about those birds.

Santa Claus

20:54

@Undo I should go back sometime...was it crowded?

@Undo What do Scott Depot, WV and Battle Creek, MI have to do with anything

Undo

21:12

@SantaClaus not really

A: What guidance should be given when edits are rejected?

This post is of very low quality and should be deleted. Please only edit posts that can be saved.

J. Musser

@bjb568 Yeah, +1.

Doesn't completely answer the question, but good point.

bjb568

23:45

@J.Musser The question is "What guidance should be given when edits are rejected?"

J. Musser

@bjb568 I sometimes reject edits as primarily opinion based, or very low quality, as well as other things. :P

bjb568

I wasn't asking for you're opinion… I was stating the question title.

J. Musser

@bjb568 We can see it already, you one-boxed it.

bjb568

I know. It was questioning "doesn't completely answer the question".

… communication issues.
