  1. bant coz you should be --old unix junkie. also banning everyone else coz your avatars look like portholes (in dark mode).
  2. It works, though it's a bit of a tedious process. I'm about halfway through my previous posts and I'll finish up the other half later today. emojis you have to rebuild though; and some embedded Youtube videos. And anything embedded in something quoted can only be rebuilt by waiting on the person who originally made the quoted text/image combos to rebuild them, then requote what was originally quoted. Mind you, not everything image-wise seems to be broken; but you won't know what is broken without reviewing all your previous content.
  3. Yeah, that seems to work in a lot of cases. What's probably happening where it does is the thumbnail image url references in the post are being rebuilt with what they should actually bel hence, the ability to reinsert them once you go in for the second edit. Won't work for emojis though, nor embedded quoted images by other posters in a thread.
  4. I think there might be a lot of them (forum seems a lot more sparse). Couldn't find the ban thread, nor my build thread. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place? Added: Alright, I found my build thread. Most of the images posted in it are now only referenced by links and broken image icons. I imagine that's likely to have affected many others as well.
  5. Thanks, E. Glad to see the site back up. As for person who used to work for you, there are blacklists that can be employed to help ensure they never do that to another site.
  6. Among a large number of others, ArsTechnica also reports on this, as does the Wall Street Journal (WSJ): ArsTechnica: Five new bills aim to break up Big Tech platforms, force them to play nice WSJ: House Bills Seek to Break Up Amazon and Other Big Tech Companies
  7. careful, i'm a proud boomer in that i was the result of the generation that won the last world war. now maybe we can talk about unloading hardware and reinserting floppies.
  8. i've got enough trouble with self-ejecting floppies as it is. hardware unloading? moohaha... read my response to you in the ban thread, youngster.
  9. Bant coz got the email notification from discord earlier today. I'm a retired boomer, I don't pay attention to the impatient, including youngsters.
  10. what date? i don't do dates. just prunes. (fit THAT in your nom de plume )
  11. if you need or would like an extra hand setting them up, let me know; or perhaps even an extra set of lips...
  12. ordered some extras for aux cooling purposes: also, the lightest mouse I ever owned showed up: the question remains: will it make me run faster, jump higher (the sneakers never did the trick).
  13. Interesting, especially given how most B-stock investors lost their shirts when TORSTAR, the previous majority owner of VerticalScope, was sold to NordStar. Relevance: For those who might not be aware of it, VerticalScope owns Overclock.net (OCN) after purchasing it when the Huddler platform went EOL back in 2018. Private Capital Journal, May 31, 2021: VerticalScope to raise $100M from TSX IPO at $19-23 per share The securities under the Offering have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any state of the United States and may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities in any jurisdiction in which the offering or sale is not permitted. --end excerpt. Lastly, per Private Capital Journal: /NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./ Also see: TheGlobeAndMail, June 29, 2020 Torstar buyer expects to raise $100-million selling minority stakes
  14. That'll be a classic once the entire world is forced by Microsoft to move to the Xbox*. *It'll be a very small world.
  15. Used a few points I had at B&H and Amazon:
  16. Don't get me started on what's hanging from my rear bumper hitch.
  17. @Joe__BishopWelcome, bud, you'll love it here! But don't pay attention to that wannabe (see pic below):
  18. NP, I'll see if I can't make due with the instance the Docker WIN 10 install set up for me. While I do have a good deal of experience using the command line (starting with UNIX way back when), my oculars aren't what they used to be what with a bit of a macular degeneration in my right eye (it's been monitored these past few years). It's sort of like experiencing a touch of F. Zappa's Nanook Rubs It without actually hearing him tell me that (I continue to maintain my sense of humor because there's not much else I can do about it unless (e.g.) Pfizer comes up with a magic injection that will fill in those holes...). Anyway, I've bumped up my accessibility settings a bit which does help with what were smaller texts. I'll keep reporting my progress on a regular basis.
  19. You guys in Europe have it even rougher.
  20. Did you follow their so-called "Elite" signup process which is supposed to allow you to queue up to get a card? If not, that's the why. You gotta be there as soon as they start the signups (to the second), and be able to get past all the fubar that's been happening every signup with them. Their servers have broken down repeatedly with each instance of the sku's they've run the process for. The combination of miners, bots, and gamers/others just wanting a card pressing ctrl+f5 repeatedly all at the same time has been causing the breakdowns. Summed up: Maybe EVGA should start looking at who is actually maintaining their server (they're hosted by Akamai Technologies, inc.) and/or their website. Whatever the problem is, the user experience associated with their website during these signups is obviously not consumer friendly. It’s mediocre at best, and I suspect most people feel it sux.
  21. You miss out and/or did the signup process breakdown again?
