smartquotes.... in a URL.... hex encoded....

smartquotes.... in a URL.... hex encoded....
They're not in the URL though, just in the title
@accalia said:must... resist... urge... to.... murder...
This bit still applies though

Yeah, some kind of oneboxing failure. I don't know enough about the process to state where the WTF is.

my twitch murder urge spasm cares not about such twitch twitch inconsequentialities
in fact that makes it doubly wrong!

The wild @accalia is an enigma; attempts to understand such a creature are doomed to failure

because they double escaped the smart quotes.
they could have not escaped at all and it would have worked, single escaping would have worked too, as would not fracking using smart quotes in the first place as then fracking well should have, but double escaping the smart quote? that makes me want to go buy a shotgun from tony down by the docs who never says where he gets the guns and doesn't make you go through all that registration paperwork, and anyway you can't do the paperwork because the serial number is missing....

What's double escaping in this case? What would single escaping be?

What's double escaping in this case?
‘

You don't say?

I think &#8217 rather than ’

‘;

at worstthat was my comment, but i've looked at it more now...... discourse is doing something that breaks it .... because the onebox actually uses the second form.
/me puts the gun down as confusion and disappointment at discourse overwhelms the
impotentrage

I was so 'd thanks to the server cooties caused by the jeffing that I had to be jeffed in later, which caused more server cooties.
We really need to figure out this jeffing cooties thing.

Ah...I had looked at it in the inspector, but it converts the entities already, so it wasn't immediately obvious to me what was going on.

Chrome? You can right-click the text and 'Edit as HTML'; you get the true text then ;)
-
Yes, that's what I did ultimately...but I didn't realize that I had to. I don't often need to debug / investigate this sort of thing.

So you dislike people streaming videogames and you are killing them because oneboxing doesn't work?

Maybe she's paid by hitbox?
-
Even though, "hitbox" sounds like "onebox" I cannot find whether Discourse supports oneboxing hitbox streams.
Googling for "hitbox oembed" doesn't yield any useful results either, but there is a wordpress plugin.

disappointment at discours
You actually had expectations for discourse that allowed you to be disappointed? Methinks you set the bar too high.
In my case, there is no bar; I don't want dicksores tripping over my expectations. It has trouble walking on its own.
