@FaheemMitha It is all a big string :D

That remembers me that I should update one of my lua plugins for mpv
Oct 28, 2021 19:18
@FaheemMitha Err, click the arrow to see what message I'm responding to :)
Oct 28, 2021 18:35
@FaheemMitha Read this wiki.mozilla.org/Project_Fission it may help to pin point the culprit

> You are about to close 19 windows with 2768 tabs. Tabs in non-private windows will be restored when you restart.

I... uh... just kinda add more ram
Oct 11, 2021 19:48
What are you trying to achieve?

Breast cancer
Oct 11, 2021 15:34
I wonder if it's because there's more awareness
Oct 8, 2021 19:05
@FaheemMitha "small changes SE could make that would improve things"
Oct 8, 2021 17:44
Yeah, answers labels is not one of them
Oct 8, 2021 16:41
@terdon That's the more unuseful thing ever. I don't need to know that it works for X or Y version, I need to know that if it works for me. If it doesn't then that's a downvote.
Oct 8, 2021 16:39
@terdon That doesn't explain how it is better. This is labeling for labeling sake.
Oct 8, 2021 15:54
We've already gotten rid of the version tags for questions, adding them for answers is a step back.
Oct 8, 2021 15:53
@terdon Do you have a crystal ball? You seem to be saying that this feature is only useful in hindsight, after you answer the question.
Oct 8, 2021 15:50
@terdon Again, what this changes for the better? Nothing. You can achieve the same effect by saying "Debian 7 and earlier needs to be done this way, later versions that way"
Oct 8, 2021 13:41
This is again a misfeature. Its stated goals are not addressed by the feature itself in a way that logically needs addressing (it's claimed to help with obsolete answers, while obsolete answers just need an edit that updates them instead).
Oct 8, 2021 13:40
@StephenKitt No, I don't think that version tags are going to help at all with anything, be it users, askers or answerers. The manual is just including the link whenever relevant and doesn't affect the nominal flow of the answer. It's something that can be included organically.
Oct 8, 2021 13:38
@StephenKitt While I generally agree, sometimes the manual itself is difficult to parse or address the issue indirectly.
Oct 8, 2021 13:37
@StephenKitt I really doubt that.
Oct 8, 2021 13:37
@StephenKitt RTM :D
Oct 8, 2021 13:37
@StephenKitt Well, you can't fix that.
Oct 8, 2021 13:36
@StephenKitt I would write that as "enable the Debian backports on your system and install these packages"
Oct 8, 2021 13:35
@StephenKitt Personally, I check my answers whenever someone interacts with them in case it needs a refresh.
Oct 8, 2021 13:34
@StephenKitt Nothing prevents you from using your crystal ball today ;)
Oct 8, 2021 13:33
Or an answer that works on every version?
Oct 8, 2021 13:32
@StephenKitt Maybe edit to add the new solution on top?
Oct 8, 2021 10:56
The link itself is probably a meeting.
Oct 8, 2021 10:56
BTW, jitsi is probably preventing you from joining without the mic and then complaining that you have problems with it. Which is unlike other solutions (gmeet) that allows you to join with whatever you have.
Oct 8, 2021 10:45
webapps.se?
Oct 7, 2021 23:13
I somehow managed to get a buffer overflow from the kernel itself
Oct 4, 2021 15:12
@AndrasDeak Students have problems knowing what is a file and a directory.
Sep 29, 2021 14:23
Mmm... naughty >:D
Sep 29, 2021 13:32
But TLA's are awesome.
Sep 29, 2021 13:25
You need to improve your KUWA Faheem
Sep 28, 2021 19:12
Nah, its at 00, but the job is done in batch
Sep 28, 2021 19:08
I was waiting for it
Sep 28, 2021 19:08
Yeah, that has to happen
Sep 28, 2021 14:31
@JeffSchaller Careful, it may introduce other problems :D
Sep 27, 2021 18:18
It says that they don't know either.
Sep 27, 2021 18:18
After like two pages I found a canada health article gov.nl.ca/covid-19/vaccine/astrazeneca-covishield-information
Sep 27, 2021 18:18
@FaheemMitha No, I can't find anything that isn't for or from india
Sep 27, 2021 18:16
Interesting, I can only find articles for the indian market about blood clots and covidshield
Sep 27, 2021 18:15
@FaheemMitha Extremely rare blood cloth issues. They already figured out what condition is that causes that reaction. Don't remember what it was.
Sep 27, 2021 18:14
@FaheemMitha Every vaccine fulfills the same purpose: preventing hospitalizations and deaths
Sep 27, 2021 18:13
@FaheemMitha Have you checked out linode.
Sep 27, 2021 18:13
The one that they offered.
Sep 27, 2021 18:11
A single box with 64c/128t can have thousands of vm's
Sep 27, 2021 18:11
@FaheemMitha No, that they bill you an arm and a leg despite overselling the hardware.
