Q: Let's do regular Meta SE Town Hall Chats (next event: July 12, 2017)

Back in 2016, Ana conducted a couple of experimental "town-hall" chat sessions. They worked pretty well, so we all agreed to keep doing them... ...And then, uh, didn't. That's a real shame. So, let's revive the idea, with a bit more commitment: we're gonna do a half-hour session every two week...

@Shog9 Neat. I dig it.

Sent an email requested clarification, turns out that I have the word 'ass' in a screenshot. More specifically, in the caption 'fat ass to the rescue!'

user202362

they didn't mention anything about all those naked cats though

Anyway, yay, Town Hall!

And I wonder who are those "Happy Hour" subscribers whose I've never heard/seen them...

We have been talking about BBQed spam, now you are thinking about the possum? I like your train of thinking ... ;)

Dunno, middle of winter, I heard about noises at night, but too cold and lazy to check ...

there is a happy family of possums living in the neighbourhood

It actually was: BBQed spam -> pan -> fried eggs -> chicken food -> possum ;-)

I believe you have a nice neighbourhood

@Walt it's a wrestling move. somewhere, out there...

That was rather uneventful :(

The maintenance failed before it even started...

Q: How to Create a YouTube video downloader in PHP

By reverse engineering the YouTube embed player, we know that the player will issue a HTTP request to http://youtube.com/get_video_id?video_id=THE_VIDEO_ID to get information about a specific video. The result of the request contains a URL-encoded string that has the video’s location. So, we need...

Would chat be read-only too?

I can keep babbling.

We're putting the @StackOverflow/@StackExchange network into read-only mode for the failover in a moment. See you all in Denver.

instead of searching for salt lake city, I spelt it as 'salt lack city'

2:58 PM

@Telkitty "salty" means "funny" in Persian

So I'm guessing salt lack city is German

Area 51 is still in read only

user315433

? [area51.se] magic link expands to Area 51 which looks like it should work but actually points to its meta.

user315433

Okay, it should be [a51], Area 51

user315433

[a51.se] doesn't work. I don't know if [area51.se] is even supposed to do anything.

@M.A.R. We've got a number of salty cities, like Berchtesgaden, Gorleben, and such :-/

Adjective: salty (comparative saltier, superlative saltiest)

Tasting of salt.

Question: how do I type a multiline message on Android?

6:59 PM

@M.A.R. on where? with what keyboard?

@M.A.R. at worst (or best) case, use Hacker's Keyboard

7:15 PM

@M.A.R. Who needs multiline messages is actually a design philosophy of Android, much like the one button mouse of Apple ...

user315433

@M.A.R. Type it in a text editor, copy and paste.

For a text editor I recommend Microsoft Word 2016
