You might be interested to know that this site was blocked in Hobart airport. I'd have sent a screenshot but, you know, life, short, etc.

@Mimi: xxx !

I've just received an inbox spam (from a user with 0 posts) about captcha breaking; I forwarded a screenshot to Grim... and gazchap because they seem to know what they're doing.

That's great. I've wanted to break Google Recaptcha 2 for a while now

I have also had this but haven’t opened it in case it was danger.

Is it possible to define the size of a photo attachment so it doesn’t appear huge?

I suck at hte internet, but I used to be able to enter some sort of parameters to change jpg sizes on iamcal.com (Grim probably remembers) but I’ve never needed that facility elsewhere.

No. Blame Trooper.

Are they too big for your screen, or something?

Author:  Warhead [ Sun Jan 07, 2018 16:15 ]
Post subject:  Re: Forum changes!

Kinda. I’m using an iPad most of the time, and photos usually end up filling the screen and shrinking the other text-only entries into a narrower column. It’s not a show stopper.

Using that address sometimes flags a security alert as the certificate is for beexcellenttoeachother.co.uk.

Has a new feature been added to make Gazchaps gorilla avatar hump Malis avatar of his head? Because that is what just started happening on my phone. (Seriously, it just slid down from the post above and started shagging away.)

Nope.

If had the ability to record it, I would've. (and by then the slide had ended, and the bonkingwas fully underway.)

Something similar happened here too (although I'm on a desktop and his avatar just started moving up and down). I just assumed it was my browser throwing a wobbler.

Post subject:  Re: Forum changes!

oh oh oh I saw it too, I'm in the club,

:ninja: Caught it first time :metul:

The top image was sort of flashing on & off (but not animating). Scrolling the window made it flash faster. Trippy. I suppose I could have recorded it, but... meh, I probably should be doing some real work :shrug:


exciting update:

Can't duplicate it though - going back to the same page doesn't make it happen again. awww :(

Fans of NEW THINGS are urged to try out https://fast.beexcellenttoeachother.com ... um.php?f=3 (mobile users can go to https://fast.beexcellenttoeachother.com ... 0&style=26 ) to see some (hopefully) pretty noticeable speed increases.

Loads very fast for me, but the URL bar doesn't say the fast bit after I click the link and continue browsing elsewhere. Am I still on the fast site at that point?

Does this mean you can bring back the 'threads I've posted in' dots now?

No. What link do you click to "go elsewhere"?

I actually suspect this would stop them from working even if I turned them back on - sorry. You can always do an (excellently-named) Egosearch: search.php?search_id=egosearch

OK, the URLs seems identical to me, but yep, each link is now fast.beex....

You should already be seeing it - roughly a 0.6 second time to first paint (load time, sort of).

[edit] Actually, 0.6s is time to interactive. Christ.

Spill the beans - is that some sort of caching going on, or have you switched to HTTP/2 or something?
