Yes, NAA and VLQ flags on accepted answers do not even enter the review queue; only mods get those.

@Behaviour Do enough flags still kill the post, when it's accepted?

@Doorknob冰 as a Mod is the flagging as mentioned above enough, I chosed NAA because it is faster handled or would an other flag be expected, asking to close the question and delete the NAA and refund the bounty? stackoverflow.com/a/27605660/1699210

@Shog is there a limit on how many messages are shown in chat?

Shogging through the snow

Your browser will start to crawl after the DOM exhausts available memory.

Assuming you're running a 32-bit browser, there's a reasonable chance it'll crash once you exceed 2GB

bjb568

Hm… better implement a manual limit myself.

@Shoggingthroughthesnow If you're running a 32-bit browser... what is wrong with you?

Shogging through the snow

This is what conflicts me about LifeHacks... There are some good hacky answers there, but... I'm afraid this is the proper answer unless you are infirm:

1

A: How can I not hurt my fingers when using a hammer

Start the nail first, ie a light tap on the nail, enough to at least have the nail support it self in the wood or what ever you are nailing into first. Then move your hand and swing away. If your having to go to the clothesline to hammer in a nail, then maybe you should put the hammer down and ...

bjb568

@hichris123 Agreed for once!

Boiled down version:

You don't need a life-hack. You just need to learn to use a hammer properly. — David Richerby 2 days ago

hichris123

@bjb568 Okay, perhaps in some conditions where you're forced to use IE6, I understand. But even a computer made in the past 8 years should be able to run a 64-bit browser.

Shogging through the snow

apaul34208's answer is essentially the same as well, and that's the accepted one - which means the author didn't really need a LifeHack, he needed to learn to use a hammer.

Undo the Snowman

1:33 AM

That's a tough thing to make a close reason for, too - you can't really have a "OFF-TOPIC: You need to learn how" reason. Or I guess you can.

Q: How to a prevent spoon from falling into soup?

When preparing a soup, the spoon which I use to stir the soup with, often falls in. Is there any way to prevent the spoon from falling into the soup?

Q: How to stop a serving spoon from falling into the food?

When food is served in big pans in school, the serving spoon will sometimes fall into the food, as shown below: What can I do to prevent this? We could try only leaning the spoon against the long side of the pan, but that's inconvenient, and you can't expect everyone who takes food to do that...

@Frank ^One example of how users are actively copying questions from other sites to LH. This includes SE and non-SE sites. Not good.

in The Junk Drawer on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, yesterday, by iliveunderawesomerock

@InfiniteHappiness He did that on purpose, afaik

@InfiniteHappiness Not if most of them are that way.

A lot of them have to be rephrased to be on-topic anyway.

Do you see cooking.se and Skeptics? I follow them and if I go to LH after a few days, I see poor copies. A community needs to build something on it's own, copying will not take it very far. I thought you weren't aware of it, but it's nice to see that you know :)

@bjb568 I just realized I'm not entirely certain what you're asking here.

I assumed you were trying to load an insane amount of history into a live room by repeatedly clicking the "load older messages" button

I had... a reason... to construct a single-page transcript for a room once. This is a little bit different, in that you can automate loading each transcript page with a bit less overhead than loading them into a live room

Still, it ended up being a very heavy page.
