neato
does it work in the Tavern?
 
[ SmokeDetector ] SmokeDetector started
 
Why do you kill your own bot @ManishEarth? That's just cruel...
 
@Undo only this room, and only us three.
Also, it only checks once every five minutes
So, if I do
!!/stappit
It will die within 5 minutes
 
@ManishEarth So if we stappit in this room, does it stop in the tavern too?
 
yeah
It exists the program
 
10:08 PM
great
 
which isn't as easy as it looks from a thread
 
does happy dance
 
@ManishEarth It makes the program exist? I'm assuming it already does... :P
 
@ManishEarth It should auto-ping you. :P
 
I'm just testing if the 300-second thing works
@Doorknob lol
 
10:09 PM

So... are you going to hint me in the right direction?
 
Turn left
 
I just hit you... didn't help.
 
replies to email
 
10:39 PM
:(
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssssss‌​ssssssssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
 
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah‌​ahahahaha
no
 
@Undo What did you say?
Lemme guess vim > emacs.
 
I said no hints
 
But I wanna know!
I'm impatient.
 
but sekcrits!
 
10:41 PM
But... please?
Can I at least ask you questions?
 
no
 
sigh You win, for now.
 
yay!
 
I just don't get it... I really want to know what's going on.
And why it involves a diamond.
 
hehe
 
10:43 PM
Flagged as NAA.
 
D:
 
Wait... can you just tell me a little hint with the diamond part?
(yes, I am annoying)
 
@hichris123 why?
 
@Undo To which?
@Undo Because I want to know how it involves a diamond when you're not getting a diamond.
 
is complicated.
and sublime>vim>emacs
 
10:45 PM
I have time...
 
uh-oh
 
Can you at least tell me what happens a week from now?
 
I don't know when they're happening.
But probably within a week
 
?
they're?
 
they are
 
10:47 PM
What is they?
 
:P
 
:(
It's not an election, or appointment.
What can it be?
 
@hichris123 He's getting a Software recs diamond
 
@ManishEarth I never said that...
or at least the email didn't :P
 
@ManishEarth What I said. But he said no.
 
10:48 PM
No, I don't have any special info, but it seems like @Undo got email #1
 
@ManishEarth Yeah, 'email #1'
 
to which he replied yes, so there's a good chance of email #2, which comes with a diamond
 
but it said... aw nevermind
 
Perks of being a mod on both a beta and graduated site -- I know the procedure inside out :p
@Undo I know, I know
Email #1 isn't 100% certain, but close enough.
 
@ManishEarth Um... private beta? And elected site?
How do you elect a site?
 
10:49 PM
@hichris123 Manish is mod on Chem (beta) and Phys (graduated)
 
me = sleepy
 
I figured that... but thought it was funny. :P
 
You just assigned yourself to sleepy
 
so, what's up?
 
@Seth A great many things
 
10:50 PM
Oh?
 
@Seth Everything is up. The sky is up. Space is up.
 
 
You are up (above the earth's core).
 
^ Space!
 
@hichris123 Is space technically up?
 
10:51 PM
@Undo KeyError: Object "sleepy" has no property "name"
 
'cause it's down too..
 
gah I'm doooomed
 
@Seth Um... space.SE is up. :P
 
@hichris123 Good :P
No more DDoSes.
I heard something about a diamond though..
 
silence
 
10:53 PM
I heard that.
 
@Seth So how's the AU election going?
 
@Undo shrug, it's going.
Sloooooowly.
 
yeah, elections take forever
 
I was hoping we'd get to skip primaries, but nope.
 
11 people? ;)
 
10:55 PM
We have 14 actually.
I'm trying to decide how to cast my votes.. and thinking about morality when it comes to voting for myself.
 
oh
wow
current scores?
 
I don't really like any three candidates anyway..
 
@Seth meh, vote for yourself.
 
  1. Mitch                [  323] ( 32k rep, 1647 helpful flags)
  2. Seth                 [  306] ( 10k rep, 2177 helpful flags)
  3. Thomas W.            [  189] ( 10k rep, 1624 helpful flags)
  4. Braiam               [  163] ( 16k rep, 2884 helpful flags)
  5. Mateo                [   73] (  3k rep, 1334 helpful flags)
  6. Lucio                [   51] (  3k rep,  509 helpful flags)
  7. blade19899           [   20] (  4k rep,   83 helpful flags)
  8. Amith KK             [   13] (  4k rep,  164 helpful flags)
 
@ManishEarth You...can't, right?
 
10:56 PM
@ManishEarth You can do that?
 
Looks like we only have 13 now though.
 
@hichris123 you can
 
You can.
 
huh
 
... not on SO.
 
10:57 PM
@Seth Expected Amith to be closer to the top.
 
@ManishEarth Amith really hasn't been around much lately. Schoolwork I guess.
So I guess that.
 
ah. He was quite active last year
 
And he doesn't have much meta activity and some of the users really got onto that.
@ManishEarth Yeah.. The site in general was more active last year.
Two big users silent this year, plus two high rep user deletions.
and the mods haven't been around much either. We're in a bad state.
 
@Seth Vote for Seth!
 
We have a couple of rising stars though, so hopefully that will help.
 
11:01 PM
^ Dog.
 
@Undo What's the book?
 
@Undo :(
Looks like my floor, books everywhere.
 
@hichris123 "28 days to reading without glasses"
For someone other than me
 
Never heard of it...
 
I haven't either
 
11:02 PM
sigh Have to write an essay on To Kill A Mockingbird...
 
eeek
good luck
 
@hichris123 That doesn't sound like a Mark Twain book.
 
It's due next week. :P
@Seth lol no. Harper Lee (I think the only book she wrote).
Nelle Harper Lee (born April 28, 1926) is an American novelist known for her 1961 Pulitzer-Prize-winning novel To Kill a Mockingbird, which deals with the issues of racism that she observed as a child in her hometown of Monroeville, Alabama. Despite being Lee's only published book, it led to her being awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for her contribution to literature. Lee has received numerous honorary degrees but has always declined to make a speech. Other significant contributions include assisting her close friend Truman Capote in his research for the book In Cold Blood. ...
 
:-/
 
:\
 
11:04 PM
Never read it. (I was trying to make a joke about Twain.. but nevermind)
 
@Seth Don't get the joke... explain please?
 
/me was making it up as he went
 
Okay... :P
 
11:28 PM
> Android continues to climb while iPhone declines
@Undo ^ :P
 
:P
Only because they give Android phones out for free :P
It's like a premium hair-cutting place trying to beat out the $5 place down the street on customer volume :P
Not gonna happen

Q: How can I use the Arduino LCD Display with a program?

hichris123I'm using the official Arduino TFT LCD Screen (pictured below): (For reference this is where I bought it, with schematics and everything.) It looks like I have to use the TFT Library in order to draw stuff on it. Are there any other ways to show stuff on that screen? If the simplest and only wa...

@Undo Uh... not really.
 
@hichris123 Quite a few feature-phones run Android
 
11:49 PM
@Undo Not the majority, though.
 
Hello guys
 
no, but enough do.
Hiya @TheWobbuffet
 
It's not really hacking, telling a user to paste Javascript
Wait - how did you and Manish hack it? In what way?
 
we can't tell you
 
@TheWobbuffet Um, what are you talking about?
 
11:51 PM
Tell me, @Undo
 
no
 
Oh, maybe I should look in the Tavern.
 
@Undo Tell me what you, future mod, did to vandalize SO
 
I hacked dev.SO. Does that count?
 
Yes
 
11:52 PM
@hichris123 What did you do? Two people out, almost as easy as pie!
 
@TheWobbuffet I didn't vandalize SO, but Manish once launched a private beta site early and confused all the CMs.
 
@TheWobbuffet I do wonder if Oded ever fixed it...
 
Spill the beans, you're making it worse for yourself
 
@Undo lol. Really? I wanna see this. :P
 
@hichris123 Your confession, now, how did you hack to get into developer.SE?
 
11:54 PM
@hichris123 yes. I have proof, but it's in TL, so ... can't prove it to you. Undo can if he becomes a mod
 
I did some stuff.
 
What?
Tell me...
 
@ManishEarth What site?
 
Tell me.
 
@hichris123 Arduino, the previous iteration
 
11:54 PM
sigh Must become mod to make sure Manish is telling the truth. :P
 
@hichris123 I won't stop bugging you until you tell me
 
...And the really big hole isn't fixed yet. @ManishEarth is there any sort of timeline?
 
@Undo it's a nontrivial fix iirc
 
@hichris123 now TELL ME. I'm making a bot that'll continuously say that until you tell me.
 
11:56 PM
oh
 
@Undo I wanna know what that hole is. :P But I can't...
 
Tell me.
 
@hichris123 if you can find someone with the invitation emails to the previous Arduino site, you can verify that the emails were sent out before it was supposed to launch
 
@ManishEarth #1: you. Hmm...
 
@hichris123 don't have the email anymore
 
11:58 PM
Too lazy right now.
Being a mod might be easier.
