Can anyone tell me why did I get so many profile views in my this profile?
eee.
11:15 AM
@nicael Your 64 socks visited it?
@ProgramFOX Wee. Nope...
@nicael CUZ AVATARZ :P
Maybe the Math.se folks think you are Behaviour's sock @nic :P
Or they think your avatar is too cute to do Math
@nicael If that a way to get more profile views ;)
11:25 AM
It's a common misconception that cuteness is anti-math and math is for nerds ;)

Q: How can I figure out which side of the car the gas hatch is on (without getting out)?

JaydlesAs a longtime New York City resident, I've never owned a car. I drive fairly regularly, though, thanks to rentals, Zipcars, and the kindness of relatives and other not-quite-strangers. Since much of my driving is done in cars I've never been in before, I frequently found myself pulling into a ...

@nicael inb4 "omg jeff approved my tag edit"
nein :)
ok, lets see :D
But why when I post "HALP!" it gets stars?
HALP! (waits for new stars to flow in)
inb4 Jeff got review ban for failing too many audits
(but again, there's no audit on triage)
I think it's great how you two communicate on StackExchange instead of just asking each other in person ;-) — Josh Dec 9 '10 at 15:12
I'm amazed by how Jeff got reps on many SE sites :O
Half of all the SE users are his sock puppets, didn't you know? :P
oh, okay. took a note
And other half is the sock puppets of Jon Skeet :D Which half you are in?
12:04 PM
@nicael In the third half of Shog9's sock puppets.
@ProgramFOX Wait. Are you sure that in the third half?
@nicael Sure!
@JanDvorak Eh... I vlq'd it.
@ProgramFOX I think that his socks are just half of Jon's and Jeff's socks... And he is the sock of... them both... wait!
12:07 PM
@nicael Well no, he is his own sock.

@Moosemaniseatingpizza last year's sprite was still up so.... chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/89?m=2778435#2778435
doesn't look much gets disabled/removed
@rene So would just loading http://cdn-prom.sstatic.net/WinterBash/js/core.js?v=26 not be broken?
@Moosemaniseatingpizza Could be ... I guess they only remove the code that bootstraps that script.
12:33 PM
@Moosemaniseatingpizza Try on non-hats site now - it doesn't work.
@rene Hmm... I'll find out if it works in ~4 days...
nidz further investigation...
@nicael I assume that non-hat sites are broken because there is no data tied to it server-side. What hat, etc.

A: Is it possible to have site-specific badges?

nicaelI support this proposal very much cuz I got confused at the beginning of my existence about such badges as Altruist, Benefactor, Promoter, Mortarboard on meta sites. They caused me to misunderstand what features those meta have or, e.g., search for "start bounty" under the questions on metas and ...

hey I want a hat for new year!!!!
@InfiniteSnowflakes I wouldn't be to afraid of virtually upsetting someone ;)
Point taken :D
bjb's suspension ends in 8 hours 12 minutes.
He will be virtually upset on the person who told the frozen cat to cool down.
2:56 PM
@InfiniteSnowflakes ahh why ?
did i miss something ?
I assume something with botlings
@rene "to cool down" seems unrelated to botlings.
If it would be bot-related, he would only get a chat ban, not a parent site ban.
16 hours ago, by bjb568
You got me suspended on MSE.
Hmmm, maybe his bot started on a flagging spree?
Doesn't look botling related, it's for the cat to cool down. Shog's boots are enough to fix the botling issues, this time it's different.

How late is it guys? Anyone seen some hats here lately?

7:51 PM
@som I never wear hats indoors.
Not even blindfolds for sleeping?
No. Never. I just shut the window.
Are your windows so dark that makes a difference?
I guess they are just not transparent
Yes. Of course. I first run outside to shut the lights off ;)
7:54 PM
o~o
Maybe I close the curtains too.
I could wake up at 0 UTC...
user259867
... or you could write a script to post for you.
Exactly!
@Unihedro coffee?
@Sompuperoo In Stock: 0 (units). Alternatives: 1 856 946 snacks, undefined chocolate, unlimited decaf, 16 malt packets.
decaf, ewe..
decaf: 50% taste of coffee, 0% increase in blood pressure
decaf: I hate my life
Trade decaf with someone stupid for coffee #LifeHack!!
8:04 PM
Just claim in the radio that the price of coffee is going to skyrocket
I like my blood like I like my shower, high pressure
Nah. I'd rather not die of a cardiovascular disease.
Why do people like One Direction?
@Unihedro never heard of them
for the same reason they liked Beatles, I guess
kewl titlez
@Sompuperoo You should be glad.
when @bjb568 leaves the room and then immediately re-enters , does that mean he acknowledges/agrees with the posted chat comment?
Will his suspension expire in time for hat? :(
8:15 PM
@Unihedro yep
user259867
Yes, it ends in two hours.
Script to post message finished (I hope it works), good night!
Good night! happy new year!

This is an automated message. If you star this message, you may have an exclusive opportunity to win a personalized email from Shog9! Or you get nothing, I don't know, but you're guarranteed to win a warm feeling for giving me Mistletoe hat.

@Unihedro triggered too early
Isn't that a little bit to early?
user259867
@Unihedro I hope this is just a test and not a bug that will repeat this message for several hours.
@rene isn't that a bit of an understatement?
8:20 PM
well, for once, I'm afraid of integer overflow
user259867
Also, does the message have to be starred? It was for Tam, but this is a different hat.
@Braiam just a little bit
@Behaviour yes
8:32 PM
@Unihedro Why... would I want that?
user259867
The message explains the motivation: warm feeling. Like the one you get from seeing your People Helped phony number.
Huh, I wonder why the script posted back then...
message = 'write string here'
setTimeout(function () {
  $.post('rooms/' + window.location.href.match(/\d+/) + '/messages/new', {
    text: message,
    fkey: fkey().fkey
  })
}, 1420070400 - Date.now())
user259867
@Unihedro JavaScript timestamp is in milliseconds.
user259867
From my console, Date.now() is 1420058427028
Oh, it needs to have two more zeroes.
user259867
8:42 PM
I think three more zeroes. Seconds vs milliseconds.
Ok. Made the change, I hope it works.
wow, (supposedly) working template for everyone (long live open-source!)
inb4 some noob forget to change the text and someone posts "write text here"
user259867

user259867
Oh, I see: should run from a different location.
8:56 PM
Ugh, Rhino JS.
Oh, it should be /rooms..., not rooms.

@Unihedro Even so, POST http://chat.meta.stackexchange.com/rooms/89/messages/new 404 (Not Found)
> You may only fetch vote counts once every second.
back in my day if we wanted a hat we had to walk 2 miles to the store to go buy one...
Uh, why?
user259867
@Frank Because bots.
9:08 PM
@Som :O
What's wrong with bots looking at vote counts?
user259867
Fetching the vote splits hits deeper into the system than just loading the page; a request to the database is made. So if you write a bot fetching those many times per second on many posts, you can hurt the performance (DDOS attack).
user259867
#lifehack Instead of POST requests, type the message in the message box and tell the script to click the send button at certain time.

);
user259867
Y SO STRICT
Why is nobody taking ping into account?
user259867
@TheGuywithTheElfHat Changing the value of textarea does not involve a ping.
user259867
Or you mean setting the date for something earlier?
10:08 PM
@Behaviour reasons
For chat.meta.stackexchange.com to receive it as close to 1420070400000 as possible, the message has to be sent ~100 milliseconds earlier.
actually, I found that bugs are more easily reproducible/findable if I use the strict statement in JS
user259867
But then you'd use it on the script level, not within a function?
meh
I have a library that won't work if I use it for the whole file instead of per-function... don't ask me why, I haven't been bored enough to figured it out yet
user259867
Does resolution hat give us the usual 12 hour margin?
user259867
10:16 PM
Because that would mean we can get it NOW!
Trying to get more helpful flags on GL
user259867
@Frank If Shog self-deleted that comment, he'd be closer to the Resolution hat
Possibly at the expense of making work for the mods
user259867
Oh wait, does it apply only to year 2014?! Not to 2013, 12, 11...
But I wanna get 500 before we graduate.
user259867
10:17 PM
@Frank No need to hurry then.
lolyeah
GL is so slow
but they've been public for quite some time.
@Behaviour Yes--the comments you delete must be from 2014.
user259867
@anorton Luckily for me, all my comments are from 2014. :)
user259867
I'm going through them now, but no hat yet.
Haha. I might just go and make 10 pointless comments on one of my old questions. Or does the hat consider it 2015 already?
user259867
10:26 PM
Some other time-dependent hats gave us +-12 hours margin around the actual date. I don't know if this applies to Resolution.
user259867
But I have no difficulty finding obsolete comments of my own that can be safely deleted now.
lol, I got Tam o' Shanter without even trying.
I forgot it existed.
