You could use the ASCII code though [12:04:37] Mine is ALT+72, but is likely different for you ๐Ÿ˜„ [12:15:19] I think I will ave to stick wit my on screen kb [13:18:01] You mean like the ALT + numpad numbers? [14:04:20] Sorry for the late response, but yes [14:47:33] jeez [14:47:38] yikes [15:21:50] [1/2] Well well [15:21:50] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227277299964051507/image0.jpg?ex=6627d20e&is=66155d0e&hm=834f037e1205d6d660a57eed0eac90fe203bf6943367bd58e2f82da189ac3f44& [15:21:57] All bow to your new overlord [16:10:49] [1/3] left - unmistakable original [16:10:49] [2/3] right - pathetic clones (somehow wiki.gg manages to have less density than fandom) [16:10:50] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227289627501662440/3b76193dae52d0c8.png?ex=6627dd89&is=66156889&hm=b2db0178b46ce43661000efc2dbe5b30a579ed135623a742dbc4bccd210feef3& [16:12:41] [1/2] oh god no what are you doing [16:12:41] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227290095007043605/2fc483331952d41e.png?ex=6627ddf8&is=661568f8&hm=0d6c62a2ecbf1f9d692f5da31c799737e373d3a33e4484ba8955b277bf177045& [16:21:59] ah yes, the diffs blocks [16:24:38] Theres a reason I want a imgui tool for working with wikis [16:26:36] how this wiki handles lang versions? [16:27:25] subpages w/ displaytitle, w/o Translation? [16:29:24] although I see Spanish main page is very different from English [16:30:34] and categories aren't well maintained [16:30:55] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227294686750834748/image.png?ex=6627e23f&is=66156d3f&hm=9c6b0c63516e90fe0132c4f50d6d8a5de930d99218ffc4a62b6d1c8441340ada& [16:30:59] there goes my eyes [16:31:19] This is why I love the Miraheze community [16:32:04] I personally love all wiki communities :P [16:33:00] if an ugly skin exists, the Miraheze discord will roastconstruictively judge the hell out of it [16:33:55] [1/2] imo, personally, I like it more when a wiki is colorful [16:33:55] [2/2] doesn't mean it that comes with its disadvantages of course, such as missing styles like in the case above [16:34:30] between my wiki w/ Vector'ified Timeless and the other one w/ wiki.gg'fied old Vector, what's better? [16:35:08] but a plain old default-themed wiki that is high quality in content is better than that same wiki, somewhere else, that is colorful but is lower quality in content [16:35:20] gigantic wiki? [16:36:00] yeah [16:36:32] I prefer Vector 2010 with Monobook's waves and in white-on black [16:37:30] [1/2] tbh I like wiki.gg's custom vector theme, cuz it makes wikis look pretty imo [16:37:30] [2/2] but in your case, for the main page at least, I'd say yours is better [16:38:10] cuz it looks like not only u put more work onto the css, but the main page is pretty custom yet higher quality than the gg version [16:38:41] [1/2] On one hand I want to help them on the other I will have nothing to make fun of [16:38:41] [2/2] sees oasis oh wait yea there is that [16:40:47] I like the prettyness of the wiki.gg theme, but the templates of the Miraheze verson [16:41:08] [1/2] The irony it's often faster to look up something via dnspy instead of using wikis for SE (plus there are a lot of undocumented features) [16:41:08] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227297256772861982/dnSpy_2024-03-17_19-58-14.png?ex=6627e4a4&is=66156fa4&hm=93762e4c2ca81950b524a73c013e8594b2b377c0c77de8200afb6a8cb9718b03& [16:55:54] [1/2] Those guys figured their CSS out [16:55:55] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227300973106692196/de7ea562c19ef49c.png?ex=6627e81a&is=6615731a&hm=45e630675cba759da4f29bd4013cf533ae4978c69fcf3d1dea1762d6e4fc076f& [17:21:21] Yeah the CSS done by wiki.gg staff is actually pretty neat [17:35:46] My wiki's CSS is pretty plain compered to tat [17:40:49] so it's them doing all work, not admins? [17:41:12] I thought that some wikis are just lucky to have savvy admins lil [17:42:07] I wish my wiki had such good CSS [17:42:13] the wiki I tried to help consisted of blind kittens (idk how else to describe lol) [17:42:22] Dang that looks nice [17:46:51] How can I get such a nice CSS? [17:47:25] ,;f [17:47:51] poke w/ inspector till blood vessels in your eyes pop [17:48:20] /joke [17:48:30] "Pay a freelancer with knowage of MediaWiki" seems a more likly way [17:48:49] if you self host, then yeah [17:49:07] more freedom at changing something that you can't on a farm [17:49:33] I think Wiki.GG would be a bad choice, 1 as far as I know, CC lisances are needed there. and B, I want full control [17:52:26] Huh, uh hey @agentisai can I dm ya for smt [17:52:44] sure [17:52:57] Is it about me? [17:53:13] Oh no [17:53:21] Your spared [17:53:21] Not really [17:54:06] [1/2] Not really. It depends, actually. [17:54:07] [2/2] Usually, new/original wikis are more like to have css set up by staff. [17:55:54] rip forks [17:56:07] (that wiki was a fork too yeah) [18:03:36] I really want pretty CSS now [18:25:18] I do not think WikiGG allows for "All Rights Reserved" wikis [18:46:41] Hey software engineers finally show in the member list [18:48:19] What lisances does Wiki.gg even allow? [18:56:34] you won't like it on wiki.gg lol [18:56:52] it feels stiff as fandom [19:05:26] Really? [19:06:31] They donโ€™t allow local crats [19:15:09] That is very resiective, noticed they had a customizion policy as well and ads [19:18:22] It's a bit better than Fandom, in that the adverts are less obtrusive/generally for similar genres of game and such, as I understand it. [19:18:46] Imperfect, but a far sight better than a Best Buy add taking up 3/4ths of a page like Fandom without adblock [19:26:20] Can a meta admin update the sre volunteer page to update OS from software engineer to mediawiki engineer? [19:28:54] Also @rhinosf1 whatโ€™s your mh email? You said Samuel yesterday but on the sre page it says rhinosf1 [19:41:47] Both work [19:42:04] Technically the official one is rhinosf1@ [19:42:28] But for stuff where I have to deal with external important people on the record, I prefer my actual name [19:43:25] So for SRE and for authorities [19:43:26] Loosely [19:49:04] https://vxtwitter.com/AMadmanNotABox/status/1777695581931978863 [19:49:18] also seen people talking about ads of fandom terraria wiki [19:53:03] BRB need to make smt rq [19:53:45] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1227345729367048273/image0.jpg?ex=662811c8&is=66159cc8&hm=92bb5c1306c1b53b1f88170652addb3fb65be0ef894eae266dddf7edceb3a40c& [19:54:17] why does disney+ have doctor who [19:54:53] BBC branching out cos they're skint [19:55:24] cos people like me don't pay the license fee heheh #criminal [20:11:09] We never have that problem in Denmark. Everyone pays his license fee. [20:13:00] Or else they get no coffeee [20:14:39] wait i SWEAR docter who is owned by bbc [20:16:43] it is [20:17:15] i wonder how much disney had to pay for rights to stream it [20:38:21] [1/2] was considering putting in #volunteering but may be a bit off topic: [20:38:21] [2/2] To elevated permission holders(WCs are the main I guess, GR/Stewards/GS also count) what were ya thinking before making the RfP/seeing a nomination. Curious as to the outcome, nervous, or more confident in the results? Iโ€™m curious [20:39:20] There is always that nervousness [20:39:46] You're being compared to others and standards. [20:39:56] (At least that's how I felt) [20:40:50] Never strictly thought of it in the way of a comparison against others [20:40:51] But I know what I am capable of, and so do you. You've been at it for quite a while, and you know the ropes already better than I do, regarding Meta for example [20:41:31] I wouldn't worry too much about it. I think you'll do fine [20:41:43] You just need one thing [20:42:25] [1/2] "Dedication" [20:42:25] [2/2] I think that is the best asset one can bring. You learn the rest along the way. [20:44:30] Worry, overthinking, indecisiveness and anxiety are my natural states (โ•ฅ_โ•ฅ) [20:45:14] You'll do fine. From what I see from you here on Discord and Meta... [20:46:43] First time I RfPed for WC there was basically 1 WC doing them all and when they went inactive for a few weeks a couple times, I figured it was a non-tech role I could help out with. Plus I didn't want Miraheze to collapse. This was last fall. [20:48:27] Second time I was nervous since I was re-requesting shortly after having resigned. But again, the queue had grown super large and I realized I had been too quick and realized I needed to slow down. But I wasn't sure how my RfP would be received. I think all responses were graceful and thoughtful. [20:50:03] Also now we've grown the WC community so we've got others to bounce questions off of. Takes a lot of pressure off. [20:50:45] (Even though no one is ever applying pressure; you just realize you don't need to put it on yourself.) [20:51:09] We are often our own worst enemies ๐Ÿ˜„ [20:51:59] "Fear of man" The fear of the opinion of others is often worse then reality [20:52:57] As every high school drama may atest too [20:59:49] @pixldev https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Dune_II [21:00:49] [1/2] ```While not the first real-time strategy (RTS) game (it was preceded by Herzog Zwei), Dune II established a format that would be followed for years to come, and is the first to use the mouse to move units, giving much fluid interaction [1]. As such, Dune II is the founder of the RTS genre in its modern form. Striking a balance between complexity and innovation, it was a huge succes [21:00:49] [2/2] s and laid the foundation for the coming Command and Conquer (which was nicknamed "Dune III" by some fans and detractors), the Warcraft series, and many other RTS games.``` [21:01:21] 1992 ๐Ÿ˜„ 30 years ago ๐Ÿ˜„ Remember it like yesterday [21:04:34] This seems oddly familiar [21:04:43] [[w:Dune II]] [21:04:43] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_II [21:04:44] [21:04:51] deja vu [21:05:30] :geezer: [21:05:43] what da hail [21:11:40] Wait, they made a new movie of it? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ [21:14:36] Dune? Yeah I believe so [21:14:57] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune:_Part_Two [21:15:30] I hate remakes [21:15:39] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_(1984_film) [21:16:31] It was specked with huge names. Toto, Sting, Patrick Steward to name a few. [21:16:48] (You probably don't even know them) ๐Ÿ˜„ [21:17:52] ..Patrick Steward rings a bell [21:18:07] Start Trek Next Generation [21:18:25] Captain Picard [21:19:39] I just watch anime and Netflix shows mainly [Bearerofthecurse](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1164188084754206731.webp?size=48&quality=lossless&name=Bearerofthecurse) [21:21:00] and doom scroll youthe [21:21:19] never seen Star Trek [21:25:25] I am a Sci-Fy geek. I love everything Star Trek [21:25:37] Seen all movies and all episodes of all the series [21:25:50] Even the fan made ones on YouTube ๐Ÿ˜„ [21:26:44] Fan content can be awesome [21:26:57] The SCP community has great stuff [21:27:08] Full half hour movies [21:27:15] Animated trailers [21:27:38] Thereโ€™s some garbage and cash grabs yes [21:27:42] but the good ones though [21:28:17] Ironically Iโ€™m solid fantasy despite being a tech guy ๐Ÿ˜† [21:28:23] dune is overrated /runs away/ [21:28:30] I watched Lynch version yeah [21:29:24] it's cool and beautiful and I liked the premise of "computers kicked our asses so hard we decided to never have computers again and instead mutate under drugs" [21:29:38] but the rest of it - didn't felt any attachment [21:30:37] I do like some Sci Fi though, the book I just read recently, the Arc of Sycthe Trilogy, is futuristic sci fi. But not like star trek or star wars or any or space thing [21:30:55] not feeling like checking the book either, especially knowing how fucked was the author [21:31:31] o [21:33:08] both modern sci-fi and fantasy are falling into, how my friend calls it, gribble "aestethic" [21:33:22] shit's boring for the sake of realism or whatever [21:38:58] [1/2] I agree. I love the Sci-fy of the 80's and 90's [21:38:59] [2/2] I don't get why they have to make remakes [21:40:21] ๐Ÿ’ฐ [21:42:45] Sure, but it can (almost) never be better than the original. [22:14:42] I tend to only go for it when I am very sure of my position tbh [22:15:10] ie if I think a request is problematic I rather avoid until that is a minimal estimate [22:37:05] The sci-fi geeks I know all hate it, they never got over the fact they got this Dune instead of Jodorowsky's which had even huger names haha. [23:07:30] This makes me FURIOUS! [23:07:35] the disrespect! [23:09:23] drop him from the database
