@Seth Has this user ever asked a question (including deleted ones)?

aaa. this stupid hackintosh.

@NathanOsman tell me whenever you want me to test the auth script.

@Whaaaaaat Why are you asking, may I ask?

@Seth He has consistently high review counts and rep.

Mostly curiosity

(also, i want to see if he's Mark Shuttleworth in disguise)

well I can't tell you if he's Mark in disguise (although I doubt it), and he hasn't asked any undeleted questions.. but deleted questions isn't show to you for a reason ;)

so he has asked deleted questions...

I'm not implying anything.

let me rephrase my question: (yes/no) Has eric, in his lifetime at AU ever hit the "Post Your Question" button?

@Whaaaaaat I'm not going to start a precedence by giving you non public information just because you are curious. I am neither implying anything nor trying to hide something, just not setting a precedence. Even if he did ask a deleted question it wouldn't really count anyway, would it?

okay. seems fair;

@NathanOsman That webpage results in an error 405: METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED

btw, this exists:

@Whaaaaaat The auth one?

Hmm... that might be fixable.

@NathanOsman yep. firefox just confirmed it

Okay. It's set to block anything but a POST request. So that would cause the error.

I have more rep than Shuttleworth? What the what?

HTTP/1.1 405 METHOD NOT ALLOWED

Okay, fixed. Please try again when you have a chance.

It will accept GET requests now.

@Whaaaaaat He is a busy man :)

okay.

it did something

i have access to rss feeds now

\o/

is that it?

Excellent. Thanks for helping me troubleshoot.

@Whaaaaaat At the moment yes.

i like it. i actually always wanted rss feeds for that

There was a couple of other widgets that displayed the inbox contents and another for posting questions to a couple of sites.

The latter was very experimental and not used very much.

The inbox list allowed users to reply to comments inline.

It may return.

one problem:

the inbox RSS redirects to the RSS feedlist

It doesn't take you to an RSS feed?

it does

i added it

but there is no site set

Ah.

and the inbox list is very long.

cut it down to 15 maybe?

Noted. Thanks for the feedback.

your flack thingy is weird:

Replace above IPs with your graphics cards and tearing

It's not actually mine. I've just adapted it into a web app.

The concept of Markov chains though is certainly not new.

It really depends on how much WINE (while good) is not perfect

i think your website wants wine.

Sadly, it's often abused to post "spam" to forums and wikis which resembles English text until you look closely.

that's where those edit audits come from.

@Whaaaaaat Remember, it's generating content from your own answers. (Or the answers of whoever's profile you paste in the box.)

yep.

ik that

So back to the RSS feed URL... I've got it set to http://stackexchange.com.

okay.

Each individual item will take you to the appropriate URL for that item.

feature-request: Let us decide where everything should go.

@Whaaaaaat How would that work?

I assume each RSS feed is uniquely generated?

(and is its own file)?

Each one is generated by calling the API with the access token for that user.

oh, okay.

(The thing it gets when you complete the auth. process.)

if they were all separate feeds, you could just add a textbox specifying where to go.

oh well.
