Q: Blog link is relative, while it should be absolute

The blog link in the site switcher for Meta leads to http://meta.stackexchange.com/blog.stackexchange.com while it should lead to http://blog.stackexchange.com This is due to the link having href="blog.stackexchange.com", which is missing the protocol.

we're back..?

chat.mSO is down.

The site logo says meta, so sure

I don't see new questions, it's just showing me the cached front page and questions from before split

Annonomus Person

What happened to tavern?

1:04 AM

chat.mso is being moved to chat.mse

I think chat.MSO was changed to a redirect to chat.MSE which is still a redirect to chat.SE

Annonomus Person

Grr.... fallout needed!

hence, it's no longer accessible, for now

Annonomus Person

Should I superping tim?

... so are we ever going to be able to fix the parent site of this room? :P

1:04 AM

He probably knows about it

Annonomus Person

@badp Meh.

So is this design for mSO or mSE?

@hichris123 I think you need an employee or SO mod to do it

This is the MSO skin

@3ventic There's no shortage of those

Annonomus Person

I wish they would update SU and SO's themes, this one looks so sharp.....

Do you see anyone with a ♦ on SO in this chat?

@AnnonomusPerson SU?

why

Annonomus Person

1:06 AM

@3ventic The theme

Yeah

There are a few sites that would benefit from it

Annonomus Person

Feature request?

:)

General discussion for meta.stackexchange.com

You should change the parent site for this room

well, the MSO skin needs to be fixed anyway

@Laura Why don't you have a diamond/are blue?

1:10 AM

We are actively working on chat. It will take a little bit of time to get everything sorted out.

... 6-8 units of time?

:)

Annonomus Person

@Laura You only have a ♦ on your Meta profile.... it's not just chat I think

@Laura In the mean time.. .feel free to chat amongst yourselves

@hichris123 I don't have diamonds everywhere, only random places.

1:10 AM

HAPPEN HAPPEN HAPPEN

@Lix, my good sir, have an 'a'

@ManishEarth I did tell you we were gathering logs for the fire...

Annonomus Person

@AnnonomusPerson "wasting"?

WASTING?!?!

Annonomus Person

Annonomus Person

Lol but I really need to code now. Bye! This time for sure.

the happening is happening at the speed of one happening per happening. Be patient

Annonomus Person

1:12 AM

checks mSO

Is it this painful for graduating a site?

Good night from me as well friends!

@AnnonomusPerson No. It's just a skin change.

Sleep well, happening companions

I CANT CLOSE PROGRAMMING QUESTIONS ON META

There are meta.stackexchange.com rooms now

WHAT DO I DO WITH MY LIFE NOW

@Riking that's there due to there being an APIname

1:14 AM

Why do I not see any questions on meta.SO :(

@ManishEarth flag the devs to death

@Doorknob The caches don't seem to be updating for MSO and MSE

@badp flags

if you keep the page open, you get new questions to the list tho

flags @badp

1:15 AM

I like being a room owner of this room. :D

cue removed ownership

We need @Seth or @Bart here to flag stuff.

@Doorknob I'm not feeling evil enough

Heh

Q: Related questions with over 99 score display incorrectly

The score for the 4 questions are 111, 1218, 261 and 5 respectively, but they display 2 digits per line. This is an obvious bug in design.

bug design related-questions

That looks weird

The Guy with The Hat

1:16 AM

Probably been asked before, but where's the TotM?

hichris123 has added Doorknob to the list of this room's owners.

Just until this is over. :P

@hichris Yay! :P

Wait, @hichris123, you moved Charcoal to MSO parent?

how did you do that?

party time?

1:17 AM

not supposed to be possible

@PeterGrace PARTY

@ManishEarth badp did that

The Guy with The Hat

@TheGuywithTheHat TotM meaning Tavern on the Meta

@3ventic badp can't

nobody can

Why not?

except devs

1:18 AM

@ManishEarth \o/ /o\ \o\ /o/

@3ventic hm, you can

@ManishEarth rofl, not me.

well Sklivvz does happen to be in the room, but I wouldn't disturb him until the HAPPENING is over

@Doorknob Just so you don't threaten me with my room ownership.

removes @hichris as owner :P

1:19 AM

@3ventic Ah, if a room has a parent, and one is not a mod on that site, the room cannot be moved. Otherwise it can.

This room didn't have a parent

Yep

And no there's no MSO mod here to change it back to no-parent

Someone moved my cheese, and I wound up here.

2

Huh, didn't realize that @Manish.

I totally should've gone for the superior Arqade theme

@hichris123 you can't move it back now

1:20 AM

Er... chat's weird.

unless you find an SO mod

That was a quick status-completed

I just got 4 pings... I read all of them 10+ minutes ago.

@ManishEarth There's a lot in here. :P

Shog made this question one big joke

I'm off, good night

nait

1:22 AM

Night.

ping me the link to new tavern if it happens to come up any time soon

@3ventic It's probably the same link, but with "exchange" instead of "overflow"

ooh, I see all quesions on MSE now

So meta.SO ids start at 250000 now

sigh Phantom pings.

The Guy with The Hat

gtg, bye!

1:30 AM

Tenth post! :P

So what happened to the Tavern?

No idea

Tavern on the Meta

MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF STARS AND BACKLOG! General friendly chit-...

It got lost

It's still there.

1:31 AM

In the sea of happening

"User Interface

General discussion for ui.stackexchange.com"

@Shog9 Ah. Wonder why I couldn't find it earlier.

Thanks!

Uh

Don't listen to @Doorknob. He has problems.

It's telling me I'm not logged in

@Shog9 Discrimination against inanimate objects!

1:33 AM

Be more animate. Be more animuson

:O

It's here!

And it's on SE chat so I can favorite it!

user image

Hrm, I have problems too

The links work in incognito mode but not otherwise

Wait.

I guess I have to restart my browser

1:35 AM

This isn't the official room D:

Annonomus Person

Why is this room in mSO? It should have no owner....

Lets see, who do I blame.

Yup, that helped

Annonomus Person

Wait... I have power here now? Yes!

Wait... why here but not on SO chat.... :/

i'm off to bed, see ya!

1:36 AM

@AnnonomusPerson This is charcoal renamed...

Nite

Annonomus Person

@Seth IK

Charcoal doesn't have a site attached

It does now.

Well I guess the happenings are over

How will I be an ornery Meta veteran with all this colour?

1:37 AM

room topic changed to Charcoal: Usually where comments are flagged and SE is hacked. Handy links: erwaysoftware.com/charcoal & erwaysoftware.com/charcoaldev (no tags)

Woah!

Too much blue!

Wait, how did Doorknob get owner powaz? Not that I have a problem with that.

Annonomus Person

There's no blue here!

@Seth Me. :P

I'll revoke it soon.

I see.

1:39 AM

22 mins ago, by hichris123

Just until this is over. :P

Has it been decided who gets MSE diamonds?

@Seth SE team.

The room attached thing is on me. If it is a problem we know how to reach the devs

the team, for now

No community MSE diamonds for now

1:40 AM

@Seth hichris did that :P

I'm preparing my campaign posters just in case though:

Tim Stone for Meta.SE Mod! — The Unhandled Exception Dec 19 '13 at 16:40

We'll all support you :P

(as long as you promise not to break anything, except on Fridays :P )

I just got this question as a notification to my Stack Exchange app on my phone. Please tell me this isn't going to happen for every meta questions on meta.so. — George Stocker ♦ 24 secs ago

:P

The question list shifts by one or two pixels when I hover over bugs/reqs/active etc at the top, someone hit the abort button and shut this show down, that's a critical failure.

lol, got the yearling badge... TWICE!

1:46 AM

@TimStone Oh, I'm a liar, it only happens on the featured tab because of the bubble

room topic changed to Charcoal HQ: Usually where comments are flagged and SE is hacked. Handy links: erwaysoftware.com/charcoal & erwaysoftware.com/charcoaldev (no tags)

SO MUCH BLUE

2:02 AM

hichris123 has removed Doorknob from the list of this room's owners.

Sorry @Doorknob. :(

:P

That escalated quickly.

It'd be a real shame if someone's user account was "lost" as part of the move... — Nick Craver ♦ 2 hours ago

2:24 AM

Annonomus Person has added Annonomus Person to the list of this room's owners.

Annonomus Person

2:25 AM

Annonomus Person

Annonomus Person

@hichris Why u no like me?

WHAT DID ME DO TO YOUZ?

:)

Well, you already have all room ownar powers already! :P

Annonomus Person

Why are Undo and Manish still on there then?

2:26 AM

@AnnonomusPerson ... they were the first owners, before I was here.

Annonomus Person

So why don't you overthrow them?

room topic changed to Charcoal HQ: Where comments are flagged and SE is hacked. Handy links: erwaysoftware.com/charcoal & erwaysoftware.com/charcoaldev (no tags)

Okay, better.

6:22 AM

@Doorknob About your deleted question viewer... it doesn't show the question title.

Also, your MSO flair on your website's broken; you might want to switch it over to MSE flair.

6 hours later…

12:10 PM

@michaelb958 I realized that. I shall fix later when I add support for viewing who posted the post (the user) and fix all the links.

And I am changing my website for the meta split right now.

Btw, is this room still on meta.SO? O_o

yep

Wobsite has been fixed

@Shog9 could change the parent site back to no parent

3 hours later…

3:02 PM

i wonder what would be the origin of the name of this room

3:34 PM

Seth has added Seth to the list of this room's owners.

Seth has removed Seth from the list of this room's owners.

Herm, I can't seem to change the parent.

Interesting. That only works on rooms for your site.

Where's @Undo?

@hichris123 Undo was in TL :P

Out of which you so roughly pulled him

I'm not rude! :P

bettar? :P

Sure. :P

Yay, 14.04!

@hichris123 We must work to get the room parent changed.

@hichris123 oooh really?

8:16 PM

@Undo Yup.

Must update servers.

@Undo you are 5 hours late for the party... both of you

@Undo ... ping a CM, then.

@Undo why!?

@Braiam I was at school. :(

8:16 PM

@Braiam we had a party?

@hichris123 stay there... you won't like the adult life :(

btw, any of you know how difficult is exporting an Chrome extension to Firefox add on?

nope

I don't use FF :P

^ That.

@Undo :(

Firefox: Not even twice.

8:21 PM

@Braiam So... can I upgrade 12.04 to 14.04 yet?

@hichris123 only when they release the 14.04.1

otherwise a clean install is

Aww. :(

64

Q: Why is "No new release found" when upgrading from a LTS to the next?

I'm following the upgrade instructions on Ubuntu's website, but on launching the upgrade tool I get this response: Checking for a new ubuntu release No new release found Am I doing something wrong? Is there a workaround? Here's my /etc/lsb-release: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04 DIS...

8:44 PM

I'm getting close to 500 rep on ES. :D

I have 141 rep on ES :P

@Doorknob I have 151. TAKE THAT!

@hichris123 Ten points if you can tell me what's wrong with the headers on that page.

Heh, and a flag to handle! Great day!

@Undo ... they're <h2>'s?

no

There's a bug on my screen

And I'm moving windows and my mouse around it

It's so confused

rofl

...why am I amused by this?

8:58 PM

because all programmers like to torture small animals if it doesn't mean they have to actually stop programming.

>:D

@Undo I... dunno.

@hichris123 They're in a very dark shade of green.

This bugs me.

And Grace Note refuses to change it.

@Undo Eeeek! Revealing TL sekrits!

Why is this room still on MSO?

8:59 PM

@Seth Because we can't move it back!
