are the network profile's reputation tab's y-axis labels f-ed up for anyone else when you zoom in?
@starball D'you mean something like this?
00:42
@ElementsinSpace yep. exactly
ah well, I guess I should have searched first.

Q: Stack Exchange reputation graph: unselecting the top site results in y-axis rescaling mess

Rebecca J. StonesThis is what my my reputation page looks like when it first loads: But if we unselect math.SE, we get a y-axis rescaling mess: I'm using Firefox. I'm in China, so many things involving Google and Imgur are blocked, and I use Decentraleyes to stop the browser attempting to load unloadable Go...

Q: Reputation graph axis labels

AndrewWhen zooming in on a user's reputation grid, the axis labels are not always calculated or displayed correctly. Here's two examples, first zoomed in and then after resetting zoom: And these should be the correct maximum values on my reputation graph:

01:10
Shouldn't those two questions be tagged with [stackexchange.com]?
01:44
@JourneymanGeek Whaaaat? I think it looks cool.
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact Something can be ugly and cool
@JourneymanGeek It’s not ugly.
Ok, fine, the front kinda looks like the face of an excited anime character.
I see another face on it too! The troll face with sunglasses on!
the reason the brits call it the warhog is...
many singaporean built armoured vehicles have these ...
01:50
… these…?
trying to figure out how to describe them
Mounting points?
well the bronco does anyway
so you can bolt stuff onto it
Oh
we have a new one called the hunter
Oh, ah. I see what you’re pointing at. Yeah, that reminds me a lot about the WW2 British tanks.
The Cromwell tank, officially Tank, Cruiser, Mk VIII, Cromwell (A27M), was one of the series of cruiser tanks fielded by Britain in the Second World War. Named after the English Civil War-era military leader Oliver Cromwell, the Cromwell was the first tank put into service by the British to combine high speed from a powerful, reliable engine (the Rolls-Royce Meteor) and reasonable armour. The intended dual-purpose high velocity gun could not be fitted in the turret, so a medium velocity dual purpose gun was fitted instead. Further development of the Cromwell combined with a high velocity gun led...
The Hunter Armoured Fighting Vehicle (or Hunter AFV in short) is a tracked Singaporean armoured fighting vehicle jointly developed by ST Engineering, Defence Science and Technology Agency, and the Singapore Army. Intended to replace the Singapore Army's aging Ultra M113 armoured personnel carriers, it was commissioned in 2019. It is the Singapore Army's and the world's first fully digitalised platform, and is designed to provide armoured forces with enhanced capabilities to operate more effectively and efficiently in various phases of military operations. It was formerly known as ST Kinetics Next...
Now this is the second best looking armoured vehicle we have
(I still like the leopard 2SG better)
01:55
Well, well. They’re both kinda bulky.
Still better looking than a lot of other military vehicles.
Also, people say that T95 is ugly.
The T28 Super Heavy Tank was an American heavily armored tank/assault gun designed for the United States Army during World War II. It was originally designed to break through German defenses of the Siegfried Line, and was later considered as a possible participant in the planned invasion of the Japanese mainland. The near 100-ton vehicle was initially designated a heavy tank. It was re-designated as the 105 mm Gun Motor Carriage T95 in 1945, and then renamed in 1946 as the Super Heavy Tank T28. Only two prototypes were built before the project was terminated. == Name == Initially named Heavy Tank...
See? When people say that such yummy stuff is ugly, you can’t trust them.
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact that's not an tank
its an tank destroyer
There's many things I have an open mind about but tanks need turrets
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact huh
I wonder if our amazingly stealthy Centurions inspired those
@JourneymanGeek No, they don’t.
Yes they do
@JourneymanGeek Cromwell came before Centurion.
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact I know
so... singapore allegedly had a small force of centurions for years
There's one photo of them and no one's actually ever seen them
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact I'm a structure purist
@JourneymanGeek What kind of a purist?
The Singapore Self-Propelled Howitzer 1 (SSPH 1) Primus is a self-propelled howitzer armed with a 155 mm howitzer. Developed jointly by the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) and Singapore Technologies Kinetics (ST Kinetics), it was officially inducted to the Singapore Artillery in 2004. Primus is derived from the Artillery motto In Oriente Primus (Latin: "First in the East"). At the time of introduction in 2002, SSPH Primus was recognized as the world's lightest 155mm, 39 calibre tracked howitzer of its kind. == Production history and development == The...
IS this a tank? :D
@JourneymanGeek Of course.
Argh, I’m trying to find a YT video of a Toyota mounted with a recoilless gun, firing inside a tight city. They blew up their own truck. :P
Probably not the best thing to share here I suspect
02:13
Why not? It’s just a funny video. No gore. No deaths.
Its also likely a video from a war
Making fun of armour that's never fired a shot in anger is very different IMO
02:27
Can watch armour get destroyed by a hydraulic press, then: youtube.com/watch?v=hFn5Mi3JlMM
I think 'modern' fighting robots use that now
there's like one or two companies that can actually cut/shape it
 
3 hours later…
05:05
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact why is the city so tight? That's the problem.
Well Israel getting new tank these days.
@ShadowTheGPTWizard You're up to the Merkava IV? Or is it V?
@ElementsinSpace indeed. Done, and also added .
@JourneymanGeek V
I bet it has built in ChatGPT interface. :P
lol
actually I'd guess better armour and sensors
@ElementsinSpace works for me, links to a question. Where does the link lead you?
@JourneymanGeek boring.
You should tell the tank "eliminate all threats" and relax while it's doing all the work by itself.
Do you want skynet? this is how we get skynet
05:15
Surely small effort for ChatGPT. :D
@JourneymanGeek exactly!
warshipping skynet
Ok. I need another pair of eyes
This is a "how do I format code for SE?" question right?
and python dosen't use ``` codeblocks as far as I know
@JourneymanGeek no. From what I see, it's asking how to program it, i.e. off topic.
There's a request and "what should be the output".
You linked to deleted comment so can't see it, what did it say?
05:35
Oh
I meant the question
Cause someone got annoyed at me for answering an OT question :D
infallibility is not on the list of mod traits
05:51
yet we demand as such ...
You'd be surprised at the dumb stuff I do with tools I should know how to use :D
@ShadowTheGPTWizard that's a comment explaining the code
its a typical new user thing
You should see some of my config files
 
1 hour later…
07:09
@ShadowTheGPTWizard Oh bother, I should have done that myself.
@ShadowTheGPTWizard As it turns out, because I don't have an account on that particular site, and that question had already been closed as a duplicate, I was being redirected to the duplicate. The work around was to add ...noredirect=1 to the end of the address. Maybe Smokey should have ...noredirect=1 at the end of its links by default, or something.
07:25
@rene Looks like its gone, but I've just enough doubt to not nuke the user as a spammer
07:37
@JourneymanGeek I can live with that.
@starball I didn't mention the pets thing cause I was worried about the (main) meta effect + there's a few embarassing errors on how I handled it on the pets site
I'm not even sure how you noticed :D
08:04
@JourneymanGeek I'm a fricking hawk. jk. in my answer post I say how I notice ;)
@JourneymanGeek I added a note to my MSE post: "Please avoid "meta-meta-effect-ing" these meta discussions: If you don't frequent said site, and you're not going to voice something specific to that community and its specific situation, leave their discussion be and let them have their talk."

dunny if it's only me, some SE sites fail to load the CSS with HTTP 406 "Not Acceptable"
nvm, the migration...
@ShadowTheGPTWizard So the soldiers of oppressive regimes can blow up their own homemade Toyota tanks by firing a 106mm recoilless gun right behind a wall.
10:47
@MetaAndrewT. this is the sort of thing you should meta post about
 
1 hour later…
12:05
@JourneymanGeek welp, it self-fixed itself, can't repro now :X
12:30
@g3rv4 \o Hope you're doing fine today!
@rene <3 I'm doing pretty pretty pretty good, hope you're doing good too :)
I'm adding bugs to existing code: Life is good ....
@rene you mean adding bugs to existing bugs? me too, and making some questionable choices along the way
13:04
Same, same .. :)
13:30
@AndreasismovingtoCodidact indeed. ;)
@JourneymanGeek well, you did. ;)
@JourneymanGeek examples! :D
@ElementsinSpace no big deal. :D
@ElementsinSpace but you said you saw answer, that's what confused me.
@MetaAndrewT. well SE switching CDN provider from what I understand, so it's expected for such things to break. Along with many other things...
13:46
@ShadowTheGPTWizard I didn't see anything, so I assumed it was a now deleted (Not an Answer) answer.
@rene 99 little bugs in the code, 99 little bugs.... fix one, compile it again.... 100 little bugs in the code...
@ElementsinSpace oh, I see.

@Catija small typo in meta.stackexchange.com/questions/393127/… "sore" -> "score" :)
But it makes sense. She's saying that hurtful posts don't convince her.
@starball Thanks :D
wow, comment editing outside of editing window privilege abuse!
Favorite thing about being a CM is the editing privileges.
@KevinB It was flagged by a user, so it's not abuse. ;)
Is it possible to learn this power?
21:45
Considering your username, I don't think you'd want to go through the onboarding. ;)
Hey, where's your Star Wars references knowledge?
I'm not wearing one of my SW tees today.
Also, I don't think I've watched Episode III more than once.
D;> Noooooooo!!!!
That is a crime!
21:48
Sorry, the CGI makes me feel sick.
But the CGI is actually really good...
Especially in movie 3.
Wait... which one has them at the clone factory in the storm? That one has terrible CGI.
Is that II?
It has some noticeable painful moments in 1, mostly fine in number 3, and overall great in number 3.
@Catija Yes.
Well, someone agrees with me. :P
Catija, I am giving you a mission. It's a very important one. You need to set up at a Star Wars marathon at Stack Exchange. All the movies: 1, 2, 3, Rogue One, 4, 5, 6. Only then will I regain my faith in you!
21:50
Did Hayden Christiansen's acting get better in III? It was terrible in II.
I mean, I don't know that it's star worthy but I wouldn't want to be accused of further abuse of powers today.
@Catija To answer your question, you would very much prefer his portrayal in movie 3. That said, it wasn't that bad in 2. Consider who he was; a teenager with much internal conflict, mentally tortured and manipulated by Palpatine, lack of social skills, no experience whatsoever with romance, etc.
Consider: I used to work for a casting director.
@Catija Somebody has to do Kenny's job when he's not around.
21:54
Kenny's job is dying. I'm pretty sure people have been trying to kill me without success for the last few days. :P
@Catija Definitely go rewatch them, and you'll see that Hayden was a good choice for the role. He played it very well in movie 3. Also, he did put a lot of effort into movie 2.
Yes, I don't doubt he put a lot of effort into II - I just wish I didn't have to hear it in the delivery of his lines.
(I did actually just watch II a couple of months ago, just not III - we're trying to get our kids to watch them)
But I don't like sand either. Also, he is an awkward older teenager. It's gonna be a bit weird watching his... love endeavours. At least I can appreciate that his acting feels more realistic than if everything was perfectly delivered. Nobody does that in the real world.
@Catija Yay! :D See? That's correct parenting.
Actually, I watched them in the wrong order, as a kid. First 6, then 5... eventually 1.
I watched them in release order because I'm old.
Still useful, though. I'm young and useless. ;)
22:01
didn't care for any of the new ones
Rogue One was fine.
I've quite happily watched all of the newer movies and shows... except Solo... which I don't think I ever watched.
Oddly.
Gotta run. Toodles!
By newer I mean starting with Episode VII, to be clear...
@Catija Happy exercising. ;P Even though it's forced.
Well, let's just say I'm never voluntarily rewatching 7, 8, 9 and Han Solo.
22:29
Also, a nice summary of why I don't watch Star Wars stuff from Disney:
The Inspector Gadget parody is also funny.
