there is a chance it's just me but can someone middle-click the page number buttons on a network activity page and tell me if there's any css applied to the page in a new tab
I think one of my students just posted a question about an assignment and I'm actually impressed (its a good question and the project is independent so not a "gimme answers!" type question)
considering I tell my classes they can use SO (or Reddit or etc) for their personal projects as long as they correctly cite the usage (and over-usage = same as over citations in any essay) - not really a bump (their using a DB which is not required so already on the high-end)....still a very pleasant surprise I must say
can you tell me what kind of work one can do normally without any F keys or arrow keys or numpad or screenshot, page up/down, etc old.reddit.com/r/electronics/comments/djkymo/… what kind of keyboard is this

........though his sister is a better coder (seriously, she's a year younger but has just destroyed all the "hour of code" activities I've given her) but I'd never tell him that
somebody posted an answer under my several year old question yesterday and it had my upvote
I could un-upvote and re-upvote it just fine
then I thought "huh weird I don't remember upvoting it initially in the first place"
and then all the pages where the dates of upvotes and reputation gain/loss were already refreshed and lost the time of initial upvote so all I can see now is my latest attempts :I
So, ikea occationally randomly sells these pretty nice, reasonably priced ceramic knives with covers. My dad lost the covers and broke one or two in two.
and since its random we never know when its in stock
oh, I had a massively chipped pocket knife from when I used to actually hand pin cable (cause I'd use it to pull of covering, screw in the small screws, close it and hammer in a dent in the case, saw out some drywall to run the cable, etc....)....that was the meanest I ever was to a knife
The GDPR (not to be confused with GDFR) does mandate data portability, which even Instagram listened to by introducing a user archive download feature.
Does the Stack Exchange Network also have such a feature?

oh, don't get me wrong I needed to vent back then and still standby my posts but at this point it feels more like: either something changes or its time to move on
yes, but Ents are also quick to action once a decision is made

I also completely understand when people say their main issue is they don't believe SE and how it will enforce (and yes, force is the correct word) this policy change
Yesterday, I posted a now deleted answer to Does Stack Exchange, Inc. really care about the LGBTQ+ community?. It has been removed by the Community user with a penalty of loosing 100 rep which indicates serial flagging.
I do not want to risk another attack on my account so I will refrain from re...

@JourneymanGeek Yeah, I flagged that nonsense. Flagging other stuff is hard. I want to be able to give people a voice, but not at the detriment to progress.
That question is going to attract lots of borderline posts. Because until a moderator responds, the lack of information in the post (it rightly does not repost the offensive content) makes it a Rosach Blot Test for preconceptions.
@Raedwald and having looked at the post - I'd rather not repost it
And if I vote to close as unclear, I get accused of censorship ._.
user351483
There's just a whole wave of "me too", and "I'm also angry" posts around. I get that volume creates an appreciation of how many people are affected, but there's a lot of noise there that ends up obscuring rather than helping.
"It looks like writing anything that criticizes the LGBT+ community (or some of its members) seems to be now a suicide because the answer will not be a conversation but a flag-attack. " Is it me, or is criticizing in the first place inapropriate ? We could just answer like this.
Yeah, I can't comment on things that I can't see. Otherwise I'd be able to comment in a way that might prompt a positive outcome., if I felt that commenting would be appropriate and supportive of the community.
@ChristineH.Richards while I agree it is far from be nice from @Raedwald to call you out like that, do know that in the last few weeks the stance there is no problem is seen as denying the serious issues these specific group of people faces day in, day out. Your deleted answer has that smell and your line of defense is the same as used by others that seem to care less about a fair treatment. That is now seen as hurtful.
Deleting things is never received well. It's censorship, and prevents people from forming their own opinion. So people like me wander by, and can't read the original post, can't make my own decision, and just see the argument instead.
This is the link to pastebin. I have copied and pasted the text from the question and re-add the formatting but I now see that it is only available in the pro version. Since the post is locked I could not copy the source but had to use the rendered text. — Christine H. Richards20 mins ago
sometimes it's hard to understand the room, we've all been there....
I'm reading your last answer and you're writing in absolutes, which is going to make at least 50% of users mad. Absolutes would have been really good to use when all of this started because there was one problem that everyone who was upset was upset about Monica, now that everyone has branch off into their camps try to appeal to a group without painting the opinion as being held by all of SE. It's hard to understand where the ground to stand on is because it keeps moving
I really enjoy the answer you left on "Why are the Code of Conduct changes received so negatively, and what can / could have been done to change that?"
@StephanS That's an important point I think is missed a lot. One problem has given a platform for many, and arguments aren't neccessarily aligning with the topic anymore.
yeah it seems to be the case. If you notice that the topic of discussions has been changing very quickly but the same complain is still aired, the complaint against the company. Some people are just using anger towards a topic in exchange for anger against SE.
There should be a FAQ about "What happens if I disagree with a moderator decision" somewhere. But I can't find it. Does anyone have a link? No I'm not disagreeing with a decision.
hmmm....torn on latest post by one of our Greek members (or at least the name is Greek). If it wasn't that I knew this member I would flag R/A and assume troll.....as it is, I know its not and it just makes me go "huh? what the?!"
....the name is Greek and everyone sees which post I'm referring to, based on that without having to link to it (to avoid chat/meta effect at least a little), so I call that a win :)
I did not click on the profile link (and to be fair I have American friends who are stationed in places like Germany or Okinawa so location != nationality.....silly profiles ;) )
eh, re-reading it I find it horrible but don't care

Many users no longer feel safe participating here and don't feel comfortable with SE having data about them. While there is a way to delete your account which will result in all your posts being dissociated and your username replaced with a generic "userNNNN", that isn't enough.
