this isn't a big deal, but any idea why this image shows up even if you have images off (or are logged out)?

Link?

I'll take a look, sleepingbag. For now, does typing / first help?

stet, Thursday, 1 March 2018 19:46 (six years ago) link

nah, typing / doesn't work. this isn't a big deal really i don't know why i asked :/ my forums experience is overall a+ great. i'd say don't sweat it unless it's literally like one-click easy. thank you!

one month passes...

I get poxy fule error when I post Twitter links in my phone's chrome browser. Don't get this on other devices.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Saturday, 14 April 2018 19:09 (six years ago) link

Nevermind, figured it out. The Twitter app on my phone adds some extra characters to its tweet links that ILX doesn't like. Deleted them and post worked.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Saturday, 14 April 2018 19:13 (six years ago) link

^ thanks for that, you've solved the same problem for me

i keep getting broken image links (firefox, linux, probably others) usually embeds from twitter and imgur. the src looks ok and the link works when clicked on but it doesn't show up inline.

here's one (twitter):

here's another (imgur):

bear say hi to me

koogs, Monday, 16 April 2018 19:02 (six years ago) link

the bear say hi to me imgur link posted by latham green is broken just because it points to an imgur album rather than an individual imgur image

why does the site show up as "Not Secure" in the searchbar? Using Chrome btw.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Friday, 20 April 2018 18:22 (five years ago) link

oh, it's not any more.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Friday, 20 April 2018 18:43 (five years ago) link

It'll do that if you visit a page which has an image posted that is hosted on an http site

stet, Friday, 20 April 2018 19:30 (five years ago) link

ah, i see.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Friday, 20 April 2018 19:51 (five years ago) link

this has probably been asked 000's of times but...

what order are my bookmarks in? it seems so random.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Friday, 27 April 2018 22:45 (five years ago) link

I'm afraid it was over ten years ago I did it and I can't remember. My immediate reaction was that it would be coming out just exactly as it's stored in the database, but that's ordered by message board and then by the thread ID (just in order of the thread age), but they're not showing like that, so not sure. I could go back and look at the code, but if it's okay with you C, I can't be arsed at the moment.

UPDATE: I have just been arsed, and it gets the stuff from the database, which would be ordered by message board, but it then sticks them in to a hash table, which means that it's pretty much indeterminate what order they will be read out from.

Keith, Monday, 30 April 2018 22:19 (five years ago) link

If I'd stuck them in a list, rather than a hash table, then they would have come out in the same order as the database. It's that it is a hash table that makes it pretty much random. Can't remember why I did it that way, but there was most likely a reason, just lost in the mists of time and I really can't be arsed going and figured out why.

Keith, Monday, 30 April 2018 22:23 (five years ago) link

linkedhashmap would work, eh

mh, Monday, 30 April 2018 23:14 (five years ago) link

so much arsing

mookieproof, Monday, 30 April 2018 23:37 (five years ago) link

haha! thanks Keith! Now I can forget about it rather than trying to make sense of it.

Heavy Messages (jed_), Tuesday, 1 May 2018 00:45 (five years ago) link

I’ve done the exact same thing in programming tbh

mh, Tuesday, 1 May 2018 01:22 (five years ago) link

Yes, a LinkedHashMap would have done it, I guess, if I'd thought about ordering at all at the time, although I would also have had to beam eight years forward in time to bring it back to 2006 when I wrote it.

i'm having problems posting to the weinstein thread - did i get threadbanned or... ?

maura, Saturday, 5 May 2018 17:18 (five years ago) link

three months pass...

so for awhile now i've been getting poxy fuled anytime i click on a link in a thread to another message or thread on ILX. specifically it takes me to a poxy fule page where i'm no longer logged in.

any idea why this might be occurring? i was going to try to clear my history and cache or w/e but preferred not to if i could avoid it.

omar little, Tuesday, 28 August 2018 18:18 (five years ago) link

if there was a prize for most times you fruitlessly went to ilxor.com AGAIN during the outage from sheer muscle memory i think i would win it

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Friday, 2 November 2018 14:13 (five years ago) link

There is a sandbox, but it's hosted on the same box for cheapness reasons so it went down too. I did eventually remember to post a note at status.ilxor.com tho
