You had a whole map to explore and you choose to... form a fucking line? Frickin weirdos....
It gives you an estimate of how many English and Russian members there are.
I wanted to make a UK joke, but of course you beat me to it.

status New code certificate all set. Downloaded, exported, (safely backed up), imported in build machine, deleted from downloaded machine. Renewing is definitely easier than getting a new one! But no 5y cert available. 3y was the longest...

Status: Stimulating the economy. Just bought a fairly high-end gas grill and accessories.
Won't get here in time for Memorial Day, though.The grill is in stock at my local store and will be delivered by the end of the day today. I don't have a gas tank for it, though.The grill was not delivered by the end of the day. Current order status says it will be delivered
tomorrowtoday (it's after midnight, so tomorrow is already today). I wasn't expecting until next week, anyway, so I don't really care that it's a day later than a few days early. I'm just a little annoyed that they said, "Good news! It'll be here by the end of today," and then didn't keep that promise.Maybe I'll get it by Wednesday.

USPS just delivered (on Sunday morning, in packaging, which is odd, because I bought them from ) a pair of insulated BBQ gloves, but I still don't have the grill to use them.

status: what was up with today and 10am? Got pulled in five directions all at once simultaneously without warning for all but one thing (the only thing) that was planned.
Well good morning to you too! 😫

Status: The outlet pipe of my washing mashine came loose. Good thing I have one of those modern machines which pride themselves on not using too much water.
Thus I only had to mop up about 5 liters of soapy water from the kitchen floor.
-
@Rhywden Oh, I had the same problem a couple of days ago. Right after the minor flooding from the A/C condensation got fixed, I had a bigger flood from the washer.

Last Friday afternoon status: Why does code which works fine with previous GCC segfault on newer GCC?
This morning status: Why am I getting a segfault with address 0 if there are no null pointers in sight?
Early this afternoon status: Apparently that's the failure mode if the compiler decides to implement structure assignment using a vectorised copy operation, but the objects are not aligned.
Now status: Custom pool allocator augmented to support specifying desired object alignment.

Did anyone think it was going to arrive today? The order status page still says today (except it now says "Package 5 of 7"), but it's 21:30 local time, and I ain't holding my breath.
-
@HardwareGeek Did you amazon it?
-
@Nagesh No, it's from Walmart, and it was supposed to be delivered Friday, because it was in stock at my local store. I could have walked to the store and dragged the box home behind me far quicker than waiting for the delivery. (Of course, given my current physical condition, I'd probably have died before getting to the store, but even so, it might still have been quicker.)
-
@HardwareGeek Why buy at walmart, when amazon is so great in your country?
-
@Nagesh Because Amazon treats their employees terribly (not that Walmart is great, either, but at least they don't make their employees pee in bottles) and I will never do business with them.
-
@HardwareGeek pee in bottle? Why haven't they been building toilets for their workers? that is really bad and reminds me of John Oliver episode for chicken factory workers.
-
@Nagesh According to reports in the press, their warehouse workers are (or at least feel they are) under so much pressure to meet their daily quotas that they can't afford the time to walk to/from the toilets, or they may miss their quotas. And they don't treat their office workers much better; you are expected to sacrifice your personal time, your family, and your health to
make Jeff Bezos even richertransform the world. If you get an email at 02:00, you'd better be awake to answer it; if not; you'll get a phone call at 03:00. If you go on vacation, you take your laptop and hope like heck that the place you go on vacation has a good internet connection, or you may not have a job when you get back.

@HardwareGeek said in The Official Status Thread:
@Tsaukpaetra Indeed. And if I were able to drive to the store, I either would already have one or would pick one as soon as I done working for the day.
Apparently we had four ( ) tanks, all empty except one nearly-empty. Woot.

Status: Function not braining morning this.
I went to bed about midnight, which is early for me, but I couldn't fall asleep. Gave up about 02:00; got up and played on the computer for a while. Went back to bed some time after 05:00. Still couldn't fall asleep. I did eventually, but it took quite a while. Got up at 08:30 and attempting to work. Not succeeding very well.

They needn't worry. I'm poly. I'll be taking both.
For the low, low price of $800 for 0.25mg, I can find out if Rexulti is right for me.

Here's hoping you can endure the rexulting side-effects.

Awesome. I'm fully allocated for the next two weeks on a ticket that's not ready for me to start yet.
On the plus side, I have nothing to do. On the minus side, I'm probably not going to be finished when they want me to finish (since I can't start).

status was dumb enough to say I've done all the work allocated to me for the sprint. Now I have to write more cucumber tests. Maybe I should work on tickets sequentially instead of moving on to the next ticket when the current one is in code review.

@error I just got something with no context that's due Friday. That's always fun.
Status: Called GameStop over the return of the "access denied" proxy message. Asked if I could file a bug report over the phone or if there was an e-mail. Google kept directing me to send an e-mail through the website...that I can't access. Surprise, phone support also wanted me to go to the website...that I can't access. I told them as much as I could (gave them my e-mail, the error message, and the reference number) but I strongly suspect this is never going to be fixed.

There's context. It's temporal context. Needs to be done by Friday.

Updated Firefox to 89.0. Feeling like @Lorne-Kates.
Say hello to a fresh new Firefox, designed to get you where you want to go even faster. We’ve redesigned and modernized the core experience to be cleaner, more inviting, and easier to use.
Well, I think you failed.
The rounded design of the active tab supports focus
Find the active tab.
Before After Cohesive, calmer visuals: Lighter iconography, a refined color palette
You mean lower contrast because apparently some people are allergic to darker icons.
Screw you guys. I want my titlebar's color back.

Oh, in that case there's no time to consult with stakeholders; you just need to Get 'Er Done.
They want you get it done and on time, but they also want you to get everything okayed ahead of time by all the stakeholders. Including the ones on medical vacation for the next month. And no, they've not done any preparatory work for you.
