Oh, sorry. I've never seen your offers before, I don't think
Personally, I do kind of like the human touch, as you put it. Makes me feel like I actually contribute something to the community, anyway
By the way chud, I get the weather from the BoM, and they seem to have an API (though it seems to be more of a mindfuck than most). I believe AccuWeather has an easily accessible API as well. You could pull the weather forecast from that
...
What's wrong?
The original comment was by StudChud. I was replying to you primarily, and then them secondarily, in case they happened to read the 2nd part of my comment. It didn't really seem important enough to post a 2nd comment about. Sorry if it confused you, but I don't think the down vote was really necessary.
This is a boring game. StudSpud is the username. DMs not fun.
Honestly at this point I'm just confused. What are you on about?
That's their display name. Display names are different to usernames. You'll see their username if you click their profile, or use a third party app that only shows usernames.
Did you really have to be such a dick about it? ffs.
Nah I didn't and I apologise for that, came across as you calling me a chud though in my context.
Right. Well cheers for the downvotes and general cuntbaggery mate. How about using your bloody words next time instead of all this guessing game nonsense
You're welcome.
Next time, read what you're posting to ensure it isn't accidentally targeting someone who means you no harm.
Words yah?
Perhaps you should take a little bit of your own advice. I wasn't "targeting" anybody, either accidentally or intentionally. You and I have both been here for over a year and a half, surely you've seen me around here for long enough to at offer me a bit of benefit of the doubt, and attribute anything I say that offends you to obliviousness, not malice?
I've never even heard "chud" used pejoratively before, so I especially don't understand why you'd jump to assuming that was a personal attack of any kind. In any case, I will be more careful about how I word things in the future, but you getting offended, downloading me, and then just replying with "..." did absolutely nothing to communicate that you were upset and what I was supposed to have done
Also lol on you trying to explain me basics of using a computer. This shit here is broken, and no I should not have to do any of that to see the same data you're seeing.
