Cody Gray - on strike

05:58

@SPArcheon Sorry for the delayed response. I see that Mithical has already handled it. I get somewhere between 50-100 pings per day, and I rarely have time to go through all of them, so pinging me is, unfortunately, not as effective as I wish it were. I don't mean that as a request for you not to do it, only as an explanation for why it didn't work even after waiting a couple of days. Sorry about that!

@SPArcheon I have no idea what this means. Shog got away with posting these types of fortune-cookie messages because he went on to explain what he meant by them in great detail. Just posting the cryptic message doesn't exactly facilitate communication or help people to know what your objection is.

For the chat rooms on the SO chat server that I'm active in, I try to read the entire transcript each day, so I usually see messages directed at me. I don't do that with this room, because it's mostly chit-chat which isn't something I'm super interested in and definitely not something I have time to read. (I already spend hours each day reading things on SO/SE sites, including chat transcripts, MSO, etc., and that's in addition to having a full-time job.)

That's pretty impressive - who?

That's an average of 1000 reputation a post - without bounties that 5 days of repcaps per post

that's impossible

Or VERY impressive

Tinkeringbell

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike 100.

Even less. 245.000/2938 is just around 83.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

Ok, math is not my strong point :D

Still :D

Tinkeringbell

Dyscalculia as well? ;)

Not sure I find it all that impressive tbh. You can have one or two that keep getting voted on, and loads of posts scoring just 2/3 votes, and get 83 on average.

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@CodyGray-onstrike you can go JNat style and just open each ping (from the inbox) in a separate tab, then go over them when having the time to do that.

@Tinkeringbell yup

Peter the Great

Peter I (Russian: Пётр I Алексеевич, romanized: Pyotr I Alekseyevich, IPA: [ˈpʲɵtr ɐlʲɪˈksʲejɪvʲɪtɕ]; 9 June [O.S. 30 May] 1672 – 8 February [O.S. 28 January] 1725), commonly known as Peter the Great, was Tsar of all Russia from 1682, and the first Emperor of all Russia from 1721 until his death in 1725. He jointly ruled with his elder half-brother, Ivan V, until 1696. He is primarily credited with the modernisation of the country, transforming it into a major European power. Through a number of successful wars, he captured ports at Azov and the Baltic Sea, laying the groundwork for the Imperial...

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike Because I can answer but I don't seen this answer. And I probably even don't see this answer if I accidentally didn't enter the room.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

@M.A.R. SO IT SEEMS!

@PetLinux if you want to see answers, just read the messages in the room. Usually it's not flooded, so such messages should be easy to see.

Only moderators can handle flags, etc. "duplicate"? Or users with big reputation score can also handle flags? (except "Needs moderator attention")

I mean not chat, I mean QA sites.

Meta Andrew T.

09:13

@PetLinux Users with enough rep and thus privileges can also handle flags.

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

09:33

@MetaAndrewT. well, it's not directly handling flags, but yeah.

Pet Linux

@MetaAndrewT. thank you.

oops

what is this? normally should be +100

what is this means???

Meta Andrew T.

10:18

@PetLinux someone downvoted your post?

Pet Linux

@MetaAndrewT. but I don't posted anything after and before association bonus on this site.

ah! good idea to check.

But... Association bonus changed to 99 from 100? Or?...

Meta Andrew T.

@PetLinux the reputation notification is global, not linked to a site. It can be anywhere where you have posts

Pet Linux

@MetaAndrewT. Okay. Thanks for your answers. Now I understand.

M.A.R.

10:31

@PetLinux bit complicated. If you flag a post as a dupe, it's gonna end up in the CV queue if it isn't already. If it is closed, your flag is marked as helpful. But only a mod can ever see that you flagged the post as a dupe, I think.

Pet Linux

Okay.

WorldBuilding.SE having the icon of Writing.SE is funny as heck

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@MetaAndrewT. no repro. :(

Writing.SE new icon is.... brown.

Too brown.

oh, it's been fixed just now then :O

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@MetaAndrewT. no, it worked fine about hour ago too, saw Writing.SE on HNQ with the correct icon.

yeah, caching on my side then

M.A.R.

For a while, Brave kept showing NatGeo's icon instead of Google. My tabs looked really classy

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@MetaAndrewT. Think the server side cache is spread among several servers, according to location.

@M.A.R. very brave of Brave to do that. ;)

Q: I was able to post in chat with less than 20 rep by joining 20 sites

I joined 20 other sites (out of the many) and even with 1 rep was able to post in any of the chatrooms.

@KevinB was! :D

But yeah, staff with less than 20 rep and without a diamond can't chat. Need a mod or staff with diamond to give them explicit write access. lol

Cottage cheese was also added.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

But what was it added to?

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike on the mini toasts.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

Oh

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

lol they added one calorie per toast sine that image was taken. :D

It's now 14 calories for a toast.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

OH NOES

(Pretty sure the cottage cheese adds a lot more)

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

I ate 10 so far.

(25 in the pack)

Journeyman Geek On Strike

at a sitting?

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike I sit alone at office, does it count? ;)

Journeyman Geek On Strike

Depends on how many you ate

though I really would admit to my office eating habits being terrible

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike five couple of hours ago (while there were still coworkers around) and five now, with coffee and the cheese. ;)

Journeyman Geek On Strike

not too bad then

though inefficient

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

15:07

Most food isn't efficient.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

enough mini toasts and you could be eating FULL toasts

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike oh, I have these too sometimes, no worry. e.g. yesterday. :D

Well, half, but still much more than the mini toasts. :D

@ArcanisGK507 and? You can just join the Discord channel, I don't think it needs approval.

The link is in the open letter, here it is to save some clicks.

user1382556

That's it, they should change the link here: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/389721/…

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@ArcanisGK507 you can suggest edit, those not on strike might approve it at some point.

but the link I sent before works for you?

user1382556

@ShadowWizardStrikesBack yes+

Journeyman Geek On Strike

@ShadowWizardStrikesBack are you on strike? :D

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@ArcanisGK507 good! So you can edit the dead link to the link that works.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

And meta should be fine, there's a lot of high rep folks around

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike yeah, not editing/reviewing. :(

My hands tremble when I see the obvious off topic questions with 2 delete votes.... but so far I resisted the urge. ;)

Yanno the death note?

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

Or even more when I see obvious dupe, and hammers calling me...

Journeyman Geek On Strike

I literally have the equivilent of that

Probably will also need to throw @JNat a rediculous number of spammers for the parent of all backlogs

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike no, the lost souls.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

@ShadowWizardStrikesBack more focused on spammers really :D

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike those nuked fast, somehow.

JNat

@JourneymanGeekOnStrike I can now delete them by clicking a single button, so that's a plus ;)

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

Lost souls.... not really. There was one for 20 hours today, maybe still there.

Journeyman Geek On Strike

@JNat there's quite a lot of them

JNat

Oh, I'm aware, and have been nuking them as I run across 'em

Shadow Wizard Strikes Back

yup, two days old lost soul question. lol

Without plz-delete here, nobody will ever notice that.

.....and as if everything is fine and normal, SE is busy working on colors. heh.

(i.e. how to make the sites less accessible, after taking feedback and ignoring it.)

Probably next hot feature would be white buttons, with white background, white text. Modern. To see the text, you'll have to do some tricks, but hey, it's SE!
