@Pham yeah, right, the other is also spam

@Caleb I think that's the same guy trying to be tricky.. why the new account?

@Pham wait, shouldn't that have been don't pay attention?

@ɥʇǝS Could be.

If I see more I'll start flagging those warnings as spam too.

I did NAA this time, but if they persist (and from new accounts no less) then you are likely right and they are spam too.

There is an anomaly though... all StackBot are unregistered account, but that NAA one is registered

5:05 PM

each chat server has their own sound

I see. I'm not usually in here and I just spend several minutes trying to figure out what the heck my phone was doing. Turns out it was my PC speakers.

The SE one needs to change. Scares the bijezers out of me sometimes when it happens to be turned up.

@AndrewT. Ha, throttled

It doesn't help that earlier today I had a weird thing were the unix console error beep was going off every ~4 min and I never could figure out why. I ended up rebooting my *nix desktop to make a a sound go away. I wasn't too pleased with having to do that.

Apparently, for some reason, Google is retiring its OpenID 2.0 thingadongdong. I got this notice while logging in with Disqus, but not with Stack Exchange.
