Stack Exchange hosts some things on sstatic.net, which is their own domain for static content, and it uses (I think) jQuery hosted on Google's servers

Are you accessing Stack Exchange via HTTP or HTTPS?

Well, I probably can't help based on the information you've provided.

But you could start a meta post.

Hi everyone

Hello!

Welcome to ELL chat!

It would be nice if SE failed gracefully without JS.

I'm afraid it doesn't work that way

I have a question that I need to discuss that's why not asking on the main site

@ZhanlongZheng That is also silly.

@Farooq What would you like to ask?

@snailboat Yes in a bit

What is the difference between "I wished I could have been with my family when they arrived" vs "I wished I could be with my family when they arrived" I want to convey that later they went their way 'not before'.

@snailboat You saw my question ?

@ZhanlongZheng Stack Exchange uses a library written in JS called jQuery. There's lots of copies hosted around the web. It just so happens that Google is hosting a copy, and a lot of people link to that copy. Why? Because it has an expiration date a year in the future, and it's used by so many common sites that most people already have a cached copy on their hard drives, so 99% of the time it can use that hard drive copy instead of actually pulling it from Google.

But it's not actually anything unique to Google.

@Farooq Why can't you ask this on the main site again?

@snailboat I did ask a similar question? SO sometimes the site says it is duplicate. Thats why?

@snailboat I can't ask here if I want?

You already did :-)

But more people will see your question if you ask on the site itself.

okay... so if anyone else here saw my query above can they answer it here.

Yes, that's true

@ZhanlongZheng Ideally Stack Exchange would fix the problem by providing a fallback or such. You shouldn't have to do anything technical yourself to fix it

You could probably come up with a technical workaround in theory

I don't know if anyone else already has.

Talking about it on Meta Stack Exchange could help. (Or not. I have no idea.)

It is unfortunate that you don't have real internet access, though

Well, you have to go through a censor.

It decides which major parts of the internet you don't have access to.

Yeah, you can work around the problem.

But it's still unfortunate.

@ZhanlongZheng upcoming but with respect to past

@hellodear Hi

@hellodear You saw my question above? Can you answer it

@ZhanlongZheng I think I was clear

No?

okay

@ZhanlongZheng okay

@ZhanlongZheng I mean to say that "I wished"

@ZhanlongZheng And they unexpectedly left later

@ZhanlongZheng No a wish which IS a past event therefore "wished"

@ZhanlongZheng Can you plz also come here. It is quieter there. chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/15120/…

okay I will ask there. Thanks everyone by the way.

Hi everyone.

Hi F.E. Damkerng and Fantasier

@DamkerngT. Yes:) lol but I figured it out somehow

@F.E. Hey F.E. you not saying much

@F.E. In the above sentence (Officer: "Did you see what had happened?") can we say it like “Did you see what has happened?" to convey the same meaning.

@DamkerngT. Why? we use structures like these. Don't we

Ha Ha I get it

Thanks

And here "I told them who you are/were" (To convey the present meaning)

We can use both?

I mean how come here?

With both are/were?

Yeah I get that

Thanks v much. How can I copy paste like this too? I don't get it here in chat

@Fantasier How can I copy paste like this too? I don't get it here in chat

okay

Whats kosher?

So should I delete above link?

I answered too you can check it out

@F.E. How is my answer at english.stackexchange.com/questions/177979/…

@DamkerngT. So is there a chance of me getting down votes for that ans?

It is okay:P

@DamkerngT. So I should be more elaborate

When answering that is.

Mood?

You mean good/bad mood?

Like a woman? hehe

@F.E. Yeah I thought so too. But still gave it as an opinion

"We people" usually appears in SPEECHES

Absolutely :)

I think that is correct too..

But don't we usually say it like "We all disagree with that"

We usually leave out "people" word. Don't we?

haha yes

So "we people" is okay for their answer too?

Bye

Sleep tight :p

@DamkerngT. I checked out Practical English Usage great book :)

You mentioned it yesterday
