Tavern on the Meta

There are lots of people who are interested in TempleOS and Evan's questions -- which all seem very reasonable and useful and exactly the type of content I would expect Stack Exchange to want to create -- have collected a bunch of downvotes that don't seem reasonable.

I am not impressed.

You (collective not personal) are living up to his paranoia.

Devealte

Wow, we gotta fix this

Bug report right here I think

Something Bad Happened

So, here's the odd thing. What Evan's doing is entirely within the rules. Wasting your own time is literally fine, even if its an OS written by someone who... quite literally seems to be a little crazy . And here's the thing. Assuming good intent, and not arguing with Evan about whether this is a waste of his time, free or otherwise... is probably the most productive thing to do. I'm sure that if we engage constructively (or not at all), any issues we have will sort themselves out. — Journeyman Geek ♦ Jun 7 at 3:08

@SomethingBadHappened and I am wondering, now, if defending him was a mistake.

Other than that I'd have done the same for any other user.

Your comment is has good advice.

I bet the chat experts can fix this

I see a morning glory

@Somewhat apparently wrong term -_-

Devealte

Shog9 helped me with my issue

Thanks

Making the text white seems like... a bad move

Devealte

Yes,

Well it's the add-on I had

Made the background white

Which made the text not visible because the text is also white

Android.SE election might be disappointing... (1 mod step down, thus looking for 2 candidates, 1 invalid nomination removed, 1 valid nomination was self-taken down, currently 0 nominations, 5 days left)

Something Bad Happened

4:02 AM

so, free moderatorship to anybody who can get 300 rep in 5 days?

Journeyman Geek

ow

Somewhat

apparently 2 mods step down...

Journeyman Geek

ugh

That's potentially pretty bad

since its a mature/graduated community, with a fairly important niche

Somewhat

ah, looks like there are 2 serious candidates (including the one who mysteriously deleted his nomination for now)

so, it only leaves 1 more nomination to get the election proceed

Q: Persistently or aggressively enabling Battery Saver

I love the Battery Saver feature. When I'm travelling or in other situations where reliable communication is more important than user experience, I want to always have it enabled, sometimes for days at a time. However, Android automatically turns it off after the phone has been charged, requiri...

[upvote-pls] 38 times so I can nominate for Android.SE moderator.

heh, if it's only nomination to proceed the election, I can nominate easily...

Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog

Needs to be at least three users nominating since there are two open positions

@SomethingBadHappened pretty sure they would just withdraw nominations from people who got to 300 rep exactly for this purpose

Otherwise someone with time on their hands could get into that with ~100 suggested edits or any lesser number and a couple of answers

@Somewhat Other than Dan Hulme, which other Android moderator is resigning?

Somewhat

> Apart from Dan, elderatthis has also stepped down. Ibug and Firelord are contenders for sure
> Ibug already filled his nomination (deleted for mysterious reason) and answered while Firelord confirmed yesterday in chat

Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog

@Somewhat iBug was suspended here on MSE during the past year, and is as such ineligible to nominate. His nomination was removed by an SE employee.

Somewhat

oh great...

@Somewhat so all they need is one more to fill the "must be an actual election" criterion
