Now passed basic user training on discourse.

Is there a reason why the text appears as it does?, as in off centre,. any svg editing experts out there know how to fix this ?

#certificate #discourse #user #training

@schestowitz I doubt this will make a difference, the issues are with the FB users too

@hansw @design_RG Not good, is it possible to block google ?

@jennie At least they tried to do something.

@design_RG Ah ok, not good if they pretty much cause denial of service.

@proto_azure yeah, i did the flag post task wrong so I needed to go back and re-do it, anyway I seem to be fine now. I need someone to post a message to discourse that I can flag (so I can get 'first flag' tick on badges please.

@design_RG I didn't know how to do that, it just seemed to get stuck at that point

Ok seems to be working now :)

I seem to be getting a gateway tine out error now

@design_RG
I am stuck on the tutorial again, got to apart where i it tells me what the disco bot can do, so I am doing things like @discobot fortune

how do I move on to the next part, If I end up starting the tutorial again I will give up

@hansw @design_RG Kudo ?

I have to start over as I did the flag a post bit wrong and don't know how to restart that activity.

@z428 @schestowitz

I guess we need a reason for people to engage, something that we can do here that brings the community here together. to discuss a topic that everyone feels they can contribute.

@freemo @design_RG

How do I undertake the Certified and Licensed tutorial things on Discourse please ?

@schestowitz I feel this is the key to peace in the middle east and a way to reduce the sheer hatred felt towards the US in the region.

@waltercool @cybeardjm Good point.

One of the issues with main stream social media, and i guess the media in general .

A banner displaying "white lives matter" flown over football (soccer) game

"Shortly after kick-off for Monday's match between Manchester City and Burnley, a small plane with a banner saying "White Lives Matter Burnley" flew over the pitch at the Etihad Stadium. In a club statement issued at halftime, Burnley condemned the actions, issued an apology to the Black Lives Matter movement and vowed to give lifetime bans to those responsible."

--
My issue here is that very condemnation and resulting publicity that it has caused , seems to have spread the message further. So in once sense, the people undertaking this stunt, appear to have won through more publicity.

If this didn't make the news then it would not go viral as a story, banner only seen by a few people.

@Orakel @cybeardjm Good point. You clearly think the way I do in some cases - as in there is a third solution, see what i said about the glass + water.

@z428 @schestowitz Facebook are moving in to Africa in a very aggressive manner, installing a big internet cable for a start, people are going to be signed up to facebook what ever the cost, FB cares for profits and data not human rights.

You can't fight against that what you can do is educate on choice, but not of course if FB fund schools.

@cybeardjm Could be either. Reminds me of the picture of a 1/2 filled glass in the Daily mail, apparently they can work out your mental health status if you say it is 1/2 full or 1/2 empty, I wonder what they would say to answer c , the class is 1/2 full of liquid and 1/2 full of air. :D
