Comment Post #286902 Does pull work? You ask at the end about making all remote operations work, but I can't tell from the question if anything other than push failed. And has this failed in multiple repositories? (Just trying to isolate the problem. You've probably tried all this already.)

Comment Post #286767 Today I learned about markdown mode. Thanks! I've been doing this by defining a keyboard macro ('> ', ctrl-n, ctrl-a), which is more of a hassle.

Question How do I get the Pixel (Android 12) to show the incoming phone number for probable spam?
I have a Pixel 5A running Android 12 (I assume stock Android because it's a Pixel, but I don't know how to tell). The phone app that came with it reports probable spam or scam calls by labeling them "Scam Likely" or "Spam Likely" in the caller-ID slot. All good so far. My previous phone, a ZTE A...

Question Browser video sometimes stops working; how can I figure out why?
I leave my Mac (Mini, not laptop) running all the time, only rebooting when something forces me to (like a software update). My uptimes are usually measured in weeks, sometimes months. Occasionally, browser-based streaming video (Youtube, Google Hangouts) will stop working, in all browsers, thoug...

Comment Post #285589 Anything interesting showing up in your device drivers? It sounds like something is intercepting it, perhaps based on some property of the newer camera that the older one doesn't have. That's just a guess.

Comment Post #285408 @#53696 did you mark this answer "outdated" because you changed the question after it was posted to something that no longer fits? Editing a question to invalidate answers is bad form; going on to mark answers as "outdated" because of the edit is *really* bad form.

Comment Post #285448 Voice would be less bad than direct touch, but automation would still be better. (The issue is avoiding computer use (and other electronics) on Shabbat.)

Question Automatically restore a dropped Zoom connection?
I once again (thanks Covid!) have a weekly gathering that has moved from in-person to virtual, using Zoom. I am an attendee, not the host. I need to be able to join the meeting up to about 18 hours in advance and then not interact with Zoom again. That is, I consume the meeting passively, but I ca...

Comment Post #285269 This worked for me (with server name redacted): div[aria-label="Servers"] div div div[data-dnd-name="redacted"] svg path { visibility: hidden;} I kind of pieced things together from several answers here. Thanks!

Comment Post #285272 Oh, I see -- I have to apply `visibility: hidden` to the `path`, not to the `svg` itself. I guess the controls are attached to the SVG somehow?

Comment Post #285272 When I came back to my Discord tab later, I couldn't reach that server at all -- clicking on the empty space didn't take me there. I can disable the style override, go to the server, and re-enable it, but that's not ideal. Hmm.

Comment Post #285272 Adding the following to Stylus for discord.com worked for me: div[aria-label="Servers"] div div div[data-dnd-name="(server name)"] svg {visibility: hidden; } Where "(server name)" is the name of the server that I elided here.

Comment Post #285272 Thanks; I'll give this a try. I thought I had included enough; I blacked out the specific server name because I didn't want to start any server-specific drama, but the name under that black-out is unique, so it seems like I can key off of that. I just didn't know how, so thanks!

Comment Post #285270 Thanks for the heads-up about Chrome. If my extensions stop working then that'll get me to change browsers. (Maybe I should anyway.

Comment Post #285270 I installed Ublock Origin and entered that as the filter (with `discord.com` as the URL), but it didn't have any effect. Then I noticed, while combining this answer with the other one and trying through Stylus, that *all* the icons use the same `svg-1X37T1` class. Any idea how to target just one of...

Comment Post #285269 I tried using `visibility: hidden` with `.svg-1X37T1` as the selector (based on the other answer). It turns out *all* the icons have that class, so that hid all of them. So we've confirmed that changing the visibility is the right action, but I'm stuck on writing a selector that picks *this* one ou...

Question How can I get my browser to block a specific SVG (Discord server icon)?
I am on several Discord servers. One of them has, as its server logo, an image I would rather not see every time I use Discord. I had previously used AdBlock to suppress it, but it came back recently and it now appears that Discord is embedding an SVG rather than referencing an image URL, so I don'...

Comment Post #285241 Each community has two mods, one of whom is a mod on both. As far as I'm concerned, if the communities merge, all of them can still be mods on the combined community if they want to be. Three isn't an unreasonable number of mods to have.

Question How can we grow this community?
Codidact's communities have a lot of great content that is helping people on the Internet. Our communities are small, though, and sustainable communities depend on having lots of active, engaged participants. The folks already here are doing good work; our challenge is to find more people like you ...

We have now removed that section on the profile edit page on communities that don't use imported posts. You should now see it only if you could successfully add a link.

Question Who should the temporary moderators be?
As we have set up communities here on the Codidact network we've been appointing temporary moderators. Ultimately, of course, we want each community to choose its own moderators; we've been doing this as a stopgap, while communities are forming, so Codidact staff don't have to handle all the flags (...

The answer pointing to the YouTube embed is correct. I don't know why it fails in that way, but while we wait for someone to put some extra guardrails around YT embeds, I've edited the post to remove the link. I am hoping that bad YouTube links are relatively rare and that we won't see this problem...

Answer A: Moved to a new OS version, didn't change project source, and now Datenstrom Yellow project won't build -- how do I debug this?
I have learned (from their forum) that, contrary to my impression, Yellow doesn't support search or the contact form when generating a static site. It does support them if you have Yellow serve your site dynamically, which is what the maintainers recommend. What changed for me, apparently, was not ...
