Although I expect that the "regular" mug is going short this month... I am planning to reserve a segment of that for the monthly nut. (Keep giving folx, if you haven't)
Also as time goes by it occurs to me that I need to put a lot of engineering thought into this. What *precisely* is the best setup in terms of disk, memory, etc. versus a more recent system that hasn't been so used? And I'm thinking maybe new hard drives is a good plan rather than just taking the up-to-five years old drives in a used system. A lot of considerations. |

Is the thread subscription email notification broke down or does it just not like me? Seems like a few weeks since I got any email love (from the cellar at least).

Ok, guess I didn't read far enough back, server issues, bad stuff all around in the poor cellar so I assume that's the cause. Best of luck with repairs UT!

New Q: My images aren't showing up when I preview my posts...they show up in the actual post, but not the preview...any ideas?
ETA: When I don't use the 'attach' bracketry, the pic shows up in preview.

Fixed itself, apparently.

And a sarcasm font.
Like we'd ever use that.

People on many forums want a LIKE button
We should consider a software change after the hardware change. |

The gamer forum I visit has a one click rating system. There are a range of ratings: agree, disagree, like, dislike, funny, informative, creative. A tally then appears on the post, showing the icons for ratings.
That then also feeds into a rep system for users, but I wouldn't suggest we have anything like that here. The ratings though are kind of fun. We've been campaigning to get the mods to add 'facepalm' and 'Wtf?'

I'm with im on this. There are individuals here who post a fair amount of dreck and occasional irreplaceable brilliant insight. Would they keep posting if they got slapped down 9 of 10 posts? I'm willing to wade through the flotsam.
