Why would a standby UPS fail to power devices when there's no power outage? I have an ordinary consumer-grade standby UPS with, I believe, ample power for the devices connected to it.[^1] It's five years old. For the second time in about a month, I've found my computer powered off and the UPS apparently without power (indicator light was off). Both times, I pressed the po... (more) |

A: How to request a mass-change in capitalization for tags? Following a lot of discussion in comments, we're going to split this request: - Capitalization changes: these were previously discussed and we'll make these changes for you.

Should posting on Meta affect reputation? When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorry. Do you want us to change posts on Meta to not award rep for upvotes or subtract it for downvotes? ... (more) |

A: Wish to have comment votes We've resisted adding voting to comments because, to be fair, you have to have votes in both directions and that starts to get cluttered, but I also recognize the need for an efficient "me too". Nobody wants to read a bunch of comments saying "I agree with so-and-so", after all, but people want to b... (more) |

A: Code formatting appears to be broken Code highlighting, like Mathjax, incurs a small penalty on page rendering, so we don't turn it on by default. The question hadn't come up before on EE, so it was off. I've just turned it on. (more) |

A: Still getting downvotes - what are you guys doing about it? I am sorry for the aggravation. Clearly we're going to need to bump up the priority of voting-fraud mitigation. We've taken action against the user (yes, as you suspected, one user) and the votes will be invalidated. That's just playing whack-a-mole, though. There are a few things we can adjust... (more) |

A: Let's have a "Papers" category. We can now support changing the reputation values for papers, if this is what the EE community would like. Here's how it would work. We can't currently vary properties of post types per category, like saying that Article posts in Papers grant higher rep but that Article posts in a hypothetical blo... (more) |

A: Paper disappeared - and my rating as well We think everything is back now. For more information, see this post. If you notice anything else that's gone missing, please let us know. Sorry about the inconvenience! We will investigate why our "apply deltas" process missed things. Fortunately, we have a complete backup from right before the... (more) |

A: Let's have a "Papers" category. I've created the category and enabled the Article post type (only). It uses the same tag set as Q&A. If you want me to change either of those, let me know. Please let me know what you'd like the text in the short description at the top to say and I'll add that. When you create a help page abo... (more) |
