(I haven't been on IRC for quite some time now, nor have I here on this chat. heh.)

OHHAI - for activity, you could poke some guys on #emacs IRC chat who regularly use the room for their "weekly" catchup to the amusement of onlookers. ha ha

@hariseldon78 OHHAI, I use plainmacs and I add plugins only when absolutely necessary. Currently, playing around with LSP for Java and Scala. lsp-java is okay, but lsp-scala with metals is a bit janky, although not too painful

Oh, chat.emacs.SE - a site paved with frozen rooms
Mar 10, 2020 13:29
Yeah, I can see that. I pinged the same link on the other chatoverflow room :-)
Mar 10, 2020 13:27
Does this need some additional privs to know about it?
Mar 10, 2020 13:27
Not a primary 'unfreezable' room.
Mar 10, 2020 13:27
The room info here just says it's a public room
Mar 10, 2020 13:26
Hic!

non-occasional ping. How are you all doing?
Mar 5, 2018 23:47
Sure, only if you want to. Or, we can just continue annoying SO/SE mods again :-)
Mar 5, 2018 23:34
@AaronHall scratch room is now unfrozen! Would you like to take co-ownership of that room? I believe you had privs to unfreeze a room if it goes that way again?
Mar 3, 2018 17:01
@Realraptor Right, almost all of UK has shut down over Storm Emma. London unexpectedly had snow for 5 days!
Feb 19, 2018 14:18
@Realraptor Ah yeah, Gilles can unfreeze the room

In case I'm not around, here's wishing you a happy New year!
Dec 26, 2017 19:52
Hope you all had a good Christmas!

> Rooms worth retaining which are inactive for 14 days will be frozen. Frozen rooms do not allow any new messages to be sent, and are not shown in the default room list to prevent cluttering the rooms interface.

@lois6b Glad that helped :-)

@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ Eh, you're probably better off than the rest of the crowd. At least, you know what you know. Many don't even know what they do know and are equally surprised when they get shown up. lol

@ColleenV "Shape up" -- I think there was something the Army/Navy guys used to say: "Shape up or ship out". As in, you better catch up and get up to scratch or see yourself out the door
Aug 23, 2018 23:15
@ColleenV Where are the new daily idioms?
Aug 23, 2018 23:14
Ah, I see @ColleenV already replied with that
Aug 23, 2018 23:13
@CowperKettle Similarly, saying "You got a bum ticker"" just means you got a weak/defective heart

@Realraptor Keep it up :-)
Dec 6, 2017 22:37
Funny, OP themselves marked it as a duplicate. We can all go to sleep now :P
Dec 6, 2017 22:35
@Realraptor Yes, that one. It is a possibility since OP didn't give more details
Dec 6, 2017 22:17
This is probably what it is: emacswiki.org/emacs/BackspaceKey
Dec 6, 2017 22:16
C-h k ==> BS k which happens to be undefined. Just my guess
Dec 6, 2017 22:15
About stackoverflow.com/questions/47668907/emacs-c-h-k-is-undefined , I think I know what it is. I'm thinking it's an xterm window that silently eats C-h characters as backspace. So, the OP will need to fix their tty settings

@AJHenderson Thanks!

This is the Chat.SE room I'm referring to
Mar 3, 2018 17:14
The moderator usually active on that room now looks to be away
Mar 3, 2018 17:13
Who do I talk to about unfreezing a room?
