Tavern on the Meta

@Bart @rene which of these is correct? de uitvoerdatum en -tijdstip or de uitvoerdatum en het uitvoertijdstip? I'm not sure which one is correct due to the article being different.

April fool's joke idea: for one day, change everyone's username and gravatar to the respective defaults, without a way to change them back. Also, hide reputation.

Bart

@Stijn I'd say the latter.

Stijn

@Bart I was leaning towards the latter. Thanks for confirming :)

Journeyman Geek

@JanDvorak lol

@JanDvorak that would be interesting

Bart

I honestly have no idea if that's a rule @Stijn, but the former irks me beyond belief :D

Did anything come of Mystical's visit to Tavern a couple of days ago?

A meta post? Or something

"Mysticial in the Tavern: Time to take a stand"?

Q: Why the apache tomcat logo looks like a retarded cat?

It's just me, or the cat in the apache tomcat's logo looks retarded? It doesn't even have eyes, and just 3 paws instead of 4.

Elephant

What about GitHub's Octocat?

Bart

@M.A.R. I would have expect the cool down reason. Or has that been changed to this?

M.A.R.

@Bart Eh, this reason or the other

Who cares

@Bart I think those are different reasons though

A mod should confirm

@M.A.R. actually, it was meant to be a comment about Bart message above but forgot to reply and didn't notice until too late

Shadow Wizard

@Bart why? He violated the "Be Nice" rule.

Or "Don't be a Troll" rule.

And I'm 100% sure he'll be back in 6 days and keep it going as if nothing happened.

@JanDvorak there was one like that, where all avatars were changed to Rebecca

Stijn

@ShadowWizard huh, the system decided to update the HTTP link right after you edited the post? :\

Shadow Wizard

onebox is broken.

@Stijn hmm?Where? Things right now are really weird.

@Stijn oh lol, well it was ~30 seconds after my edit, looks like coincidence yes.

Can you try to onebox a post? @Stijn

The news that MathJax CDN shutting down on April 30, 2017 was recently brought to my attention. I have updated ChatJax to use the alternate server given in the MathJax post. It seems to work well, but if StackExchange is going to host a local copy to use with the sites that support MathJax, I w...

Nice!

Shadow Wizard

@M.A.R. yeah, he most likely got angry at us for laughing at him and left.

Never to come back.

@Stijn probably while the link change job was running onebox was broken for some reason.

Maybe onebox works with a job too, and only one can run in the same time.

Bart

1:02 PM

@ShadowWizard your fault. For shame

We could have fresh new users join us in our establishment, and you scared them off

Shadow Wizard

@Bart no. @M.A.R.'s fault. Only @M.A.R.. @M.A.R. is the only one to blame. @M.A.R. alone.

@Bart not just any user, the user with the highest upvoted answer ever on SO! :D

Even more than Jon Skeet!

Bart

Yeah, that answer is amazing

Shadow Wizard

Totally.

It should be framed.

Shadow Wizard

@Mithrandir yeah, probably the מלקוש

You love rain?

Mithrandir

No, it soaked my bike :/

Shadow Wizard

@Mithrandir bike?? Hope you mean bicycle? ;)

Bart

Given that he said "soaked", I'd assume it's a motorbike

Shadow Wizard

(14 y/o on motorbike isn't a good idea..... ;))

Mithrandir

yes o_o

Shadow Wizard

3:24 PM

@Bart why? Rain can soak anything.... :D

Mithrandir

Although all the kids have illegal electric bikes here... :/

(You have to be 16.)

Bart

@ShadowWizard sure, but on a bicycle it's no problem. (Speaking at a Dutch citizen who cycled to school and uni every day, in sun, rain, hail and icy roads)

Shadow Wizard

@Mithrandir yeah, that's risky...

@Bart you are tough

Mithrandir

@Bart It's getting a bit rusty....

Shadow Wizard

@Mithrandir might have thinner skin ;)

@Mithrandir oil them well

Bart

3:25 PM

@ShadowWizard it's the "normal" thing to do over there. Of course your parents buy you these rain suits, but you don't wear those because it's not cool. :D

Mithrandir

@Bart It's different when you're riding it in the rain and when you're here nuking things while it's sitting in the rain outside.

Shadow Wizard

@Bart also, Israel got less than 20 days of rain per year. so we're not really ready for this when it arrives.

Journeyman Geek

lol

Shadow Wizard

Some years we get 0 days of rain in some places.

Bart

@ShadowWizard I think we have 20 days of sun in NL, right @rene? :p

Shadow Wizard

3:27 PM

o_O

@Bart hehe, complete opposite.

This year think we got more than 20, it was a rainy winter.

Bart

@ShadowWizard weather-and-climate.com/…

Shadow Wizard

wow

so much rain

Better just give up and get soaked every day.... :D

Bart

Over here I have a lot of latin American friends and friends from southern Europe. At the first sign of clouds, they go into full winter depression where I think "Hmm, summer" :D

M.A.R.

Oh no, a danger discussion!

user315433

I can read almost all of it, except for Findings...

user315433

M.A.R.

@Gerry I can interpret it though

If one woman is inserted into Stack Overflow, danger is imminent.

If three are inserted, mission successful.

Or if one woman makes an account, she's putting findings in danger.

But if one woman and two socks make an account, a little kid will gain lots of upvotes

BTW, I wonder what the kid in that meme is doing right now

rene

Watching teletubbies?

user315433

6:26 PM

Trolling on reddit?

rene

That is more likely

Jan Dvorak

Visiting school, most likely. The meme is seven years old, and it's about noon in the USA.

@Shog9 what's happening?

I'm on mobile at the moment, but can look into whatever later.

Shog9

@AdamLear Nic's got two A51 profiles. See: chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/89?m=5934508#5934508

I should say, two Discuss profiles

one of which isn't linked to anything

(also two se.com profiles, presumably for the same reason)

Nothing urgent.

Adam Lear

Ahh okay. Yeah, I'll fix that up later.

Or at least try.

Shog9

Oh right, I can't delete it because it's a moderator

Adam Lear

@Shog9 if the account id is the same, try merging

Shog9

@AdamLear it's not (the account was previously merged, I think)

Adam Lear

should trigger a local-only merge, but you'll also need to flip the diamond off first

ah

Shog9

11:09 PM

oh yeah, forgot about that

Adam Lear

well, I'm happy to look at it later

or as happy as one can be when Area 51 is involved

Shog9

completely forgot we check for that
