hello people
 
Hello :)
Did you see my menorah hacks? lifehacks.stackexchange.com/q/1910/59
 
What do you think?
 
I don't know what they look like or anything
 
( the question is on-topic; "XYZ" ;-)
 
1:35 AM
ya, I agree
 
@ZachSaucier I uploaded pictures! :P
 
of the ghetto version, yes, haha
 
Click on the WP link in the question, they have a pretty classical menorah up there
 
ah, gotcha
that's what I thought it was, but couldn't tell exactly :P
 
Mine looks something like the second one on the WP page
 
1:39 AM
ah, I see

What do you guys think about the tag?
it seems relatively redundant but I can see how more generic tags could be useful
 
3:19 AM
also, we could use more questions
 
@Shokhet w0t

@DoorHandle I was talking to J. Musser -- sorry! :( ......he posted a very good Q/A set on door handles; I thought you would approve ;-)
See conversation before that

Here is some Irony I put Derek in the werewolf hunter uniform, when he is supposed to be a Werewolf.
Poor Derek!

@ZachSaucier I see no issues with it... I did just submit a wiki edit.

I'm bordering on quitting this site... It's not going to be that great a resource, the scope is still a little unclear, and I'm being discriminated against. This is ludicrous... My opinions about this site clearly conflict with others, so maybe I will give up.

Q: Another user downvoted me based on my gender

JaneAnother user downvoted me based on my gender. The comment can be found here. It reads: @Tim Since Tim is a male name I guess the question is not a real problem for you. I am sure that they are makeup questions that are valid, but most males are not likely to be able to come up with a good on...

@Tim It might help your argument on that Meta post if instead of focusing on how it would be illegal in the UK, on how it would be looked down upon everywhere.
There are discrimination laws in the U.S. too, where the SE servers are hosted.
Unfortunately they're more for the workplace, and not general communication so I'm not sure how much help that is.
 
interestingly the rate of questions on the site has significantly slowed down over the past day or two it would seem heh
I guess the buzz or advertisements of a new site are fading
which is a good thing. It means people can get down to the business of identifying who's in the community vs. who around the site are fly-bys (not sure which I am yet), and then using said community to come up with agreeable rules and moderation practices (if there is a community left)
 
Who knows. I'm not even sure if it's possible to have a long-lasting community with this topic.
 
4:57 PM
@MattS. I'm not either, but people will find out. (I suspect not, should be a fun go though)
Some of the questions are genuinely great life hack questions though which gives me a little hope...
 
FYI, I'm now jane (temporarily, as part of my protest) :)
I think the site is not gonna work for much longer...
 
@Jane you say that like it's working now :P
 
@Jimmy fair point :)
 
@Jane what are you protesting? The lack of identification of dead bodies?
 
No, the discrimination of males-who-don't-wear-makeup-but-claim-they-do-and-are-downvoted-because-of-it.
 
@Jane I don't think I want to have any idea what you're talking about

@JimmyHoffa It's getting better, but I think there's still some lingering scope problems due to the topic being so subjective.
 
What he said ^^
brb
 
We'll probably find out sooner rather than later, it sounded like the site only got an extra week from he updated scope.
 
6:05 PM
What day was it started?
 
@Tim 10 days ago was when it came into private beta.
 
Tim
Hmm so 4 days left...
 
6:18 PM
Sounds like it. But who knows, there could be a Christmas Miracle by then.
 
Tim
Could be :)

Q: Do we need better tags?

michaelpriSince this site has started I feel that we have had too many pointless tags. Most of these tags only have one or two questions. An example of one of these tags is the waking-up tag. There can't be more than three or four questions that could ever be asked about that topic without being a duplicat...
