@Telkitty why are the raptors ignoring the cats?

I would assume familiarity breeds contempt

@JourneymanGeek by the looks of it the white one already had a chicken ....

@rene yeah, @Brad and @yannis for the rescue...

Journeyman Geek

@ShaWizDowArd while I appreciate the sentiment, your comment on that lost chap seems... slightly harsh ;)

@JourneymanGeek oh, it was just a quote of his own first comment, tweaked a bit.

Journeyman Geek

@ShaWizDowArd yeah, hence the slightly

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

He called me idiot, I do the same. Nah!

status-childish

Journeyman Geek

I need to work out how to do that at some point ;)

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@JourneymanGeek just... don't think too hard before acting. ;)

Journeyman Geek

@rene gone

@Telkitty the fat is too cat

user202362

@ShaWizDowArd s/too/two/ I agree ...

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

wrong edit approved... meta.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/53739 :(

Do we start having robo reviewers here??

Journeyman Geek

Should be could. And that ?.

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

Buh.... it's too bad the suggested edits indicator doesn't highlight until there are 3 edits in the queue. I almost never catch them in time. :(

bans everyone from review :D

"rare limits".... tempted to leave it there... @Shog ;)

dat "related" chain... Nice!

rene

06:51

@ShaWizDowArd even the review-stalker script doesn't get them always

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@rene maybe because once someone enters a suggested edit it's locked, and not shown anywhere?

It's rather new behavior, and quite annoying actually.

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

I usually just see the full history, see suggested edit with only one review, and this way enter it.

rene

@ShaWizDowArd ah, that could explain it

Elias

@Telkitty I'm not sure if I have space to do that in the middle of a city...

Perhaps virtual chicken farm can work instead

rene

@Elias FarmVille ...

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@rene is this still alive? lol

Journeyman Geek

Over long eons even death may die. But apparently not crappy facebook games.

@ShaWizDowArd I don't do facebook anymore but I recall having spend some time in facebooks notification preferences to opt-out of the invites / updates from that stupid app.

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@kiamlaluno please stop, do not burninate a major tag all on your own. First ask around if it's legit to begin with. Thanks. — Sha Wiz Dow Ard 8 secs ago

Maybe I'll start feature request to rate limit edits, even for high rep users. This is doing more damage than good.

rene

Yes, please do so I can use my down votes

@ShaWizDowArd Maybe we should start burninating 7?

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

12:56

@rene lol... well, burninator ignore my messages but at least he stopped.. for now.

@rene surely you're using them often enough without me. ;)

Baba Ji is back after long absence, I wondered if something happened to him... Most recent posts: January 2016, May 2016, February 2017, but then three this week.

user202362

user202362

I wonder ... how many others are you stalking at the moment ...

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

13:37

@Michelle maybe he spent some time in ~~prison~~ holiday? ;)

@Telkitty I see what you're doing. Put that thing back in the closet!

user202362

@ShaWizDowArd have you been peeping into my closet?

user202362

what else did you see >_<

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@Telkitty only good things, no worry.

;)

(That color? It's a good match.)

user202362

I am worried

Sha Wiz Dow Ard

@Telkitty you are always worried....

But hey, if someone stalks you, isn't it better if it's someone familiar? :D

A: How to make thick and fluffy pancakes?

Use beer instead of milk. Beer cakes are to die for.

user315433

@ShaWizDowArd Sort of. No albums worth mentioning since 2003

user202362

14:35

waffles or pancakes?

@Telkitty you already know the answer, right? right?? point to the tag on the upper-right

@Michelle too many sources for the 2nd paragraph

nvm, the original quote is there. but whatever...

There's a first for everything... I am actually using MS Access today.

Elias

That's the fourth time I created an account on 3dprinting.se... after I used it as a lab rat for improved account deletion process :|

user315433

Web apps spoiled me... when trying to do something seemingly trivial in MS Office (e-mail merge) I get surprised by how user-hostile it is. It should be renamed to Virus Warning Office.

Elias

Eh, but I remember I can use MS Excel as the data source instead..?

user315433

Nothing in the UI suggests that this is possible, but Internet says so. I'll try.

user315433

The best part is the virus warning that forces me to wait N seconds before confirming Each Email Separately. Cannot be disabled (managed computer).

Elias

18:26

lol

user315433

So the process is wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click, wait, wait, wait, wait, click,...

user315433

Am I working for the computer, or it for me?

Elias

Maybe you also need AutoHotKey...

user315433

And in what way 50 confirmation clicks make the process more secure than 5 of them would? It's obvious that after a while it's robotic anyway; I become an organic robot. (Same with "OMG this file is from internet" warnings)

user315433

Sure, tell me again how there's a thing called Internet and one sometimes gets files from it.

user315433

18:39

Okay, using Excel eliminates some of the hoops.

Elias

Cool :)

user315433

Why use free command-line tools when we can buy a GUI program and then an additional tool with which to write scripts to imitate mouse clicks in that GUI.
