and she's not on my 2018 list.

that's the most disappointing aspect of the whole thing.

Thank you, Michael.

you got it babe.

great work.

Wow, that is sad. So young. The reference to a "back problem" leads me to speculate on cause of death will be some kind of OD or something like other musicians etc.

and she had four kids.  jeez.

...they can just have Dick Durbin tell us what Trump said.

heh heh

nothing was your fault.  it was just another example of what i'd been dealing with from google for a long time.  it was my choice to cut them loose, so don't sweat it.  there was nothing "wrong" with your thread.  it could very easily have been someone else's thread that triggered google's safe-space alarms (again).

thanks again for the donation.

Now there's no New Posts in the menu.

that's because the author of the mod responsible for the custom menu is working on a new version of the mod.  i'd expect it to be ready in hours.  the previous version broke the forum.

Every. Single. Time. Still.  I'm cancelling my Turbo mode if this keeps up

it should be ok now.

You don't like him. You don't like Lionel. Tough customer!

I'm actually with you on Lionel. I like what he has to say overall but he's too in love with language and takes too long thinking of 4 different words for the same thing. Also, the tonal quality of his voice gets to me after awhile.

i'd have to say i don't dislike lionel, necessarily.  i realize we're on the same side and he probably sees the world in much the same way i do.  it's just that i come away from his videos feeling like he talks a lot without really contributing any useful information or new ways of seeing an issue.  i think he's actually a terrible communicator.  but overall, yeah, my gripe with lionel is probably well summarized with what you just said.

The information may not all be true but the spirit is correct.  And that is the important thing, right?

Maybe.  Maybe not.  I don't know.  I've watched several of this guy's videos and I've come away each time pretty unimpressed.  He definitely knows how to employ clickbait video titles, though, so I'll give him that.

This guy is a dope.

First off, the image of that report was originally peddled in September 2016. It's from 16 months ago. Second, the "WikiLeaks" account he references, @TheRealJulian, is not the real Julian. Third, the doctor named in the report says it's forged (although I don't believe it would break any laws for her to lie about that).

If this dude hasn't figured out @TheRealJulian isn't Julian Assange and that this questionable document is 16 months old, I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff he's a little slow about.

Having said all of that, I don't doubt Hillary is quite sick, both physically and spiritually.

I get the message whenever I post a reply.

Every single time?

well the bar has been set pretty low so.....

there's a bar?

Quote from: Rix Gins on January 11, 2018, 08:58:57 PM
I get the same error message while trying to access the memberlist.

Thank you.  That's fixed now.

Quote from: akwilly on January 11, 2018, 08:59:40 PM
he's been doing his own show but it's been kinda sporadic lately mostly because he's been completely wasted.

Has he considered taking over The GabCast?

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on January 11, 2018, 08:55:36 PM
Yeah, I've been seeing it quite a bit today and I learned that after I triple posted earlier, thinking it hadn't gone through.

were you able to delete the duplicate threads?

I'm getting the following error when creating new threads:

syntax error, unexpected 'll' (T_STRING), expecting ')'

When you see the error after submitting a new thread, don't worry.  Your new thread has been posted.  You won't have to type it all over again.  It's just that you'll have to navigate to the newly created thread rather than being taken immediately to it.

There error is also occurring when I do other seemingly unrelated things in the admin panel.

I don't know why this is happening, and I'm working on it...

There's an old trick for smoothing out h.264 video playback in VLC. It involves telling it to "skip loop filter."

The loop filter (kind of a deblocking filter) is used to smooth out the video picture in post-processing. Which sucks up processing power. So turning it off lets frames render faster. This is, of course, a trade-off. Because you may see a slight decrease in video quality.

what's hilarious is that i can turn around and play a 40GB 4K movie over the local network on a puck shaped nexus player using BSplayer and it won't drop a frame.

Styxxxxxx has a new set. Dayummm, he should probably go back to the old set. 😂😂😂

i don't get it.  the previous background had character and texture.

Quote from: Taaroa on January 05, 2018, 07:34:29 PM
I mainly use VLC for watching videos on my computer, but I will say that it doesn't play everything perfectly. Seems like very high quality video or certain codecs don't play well with it so you get distortions and other video errors. I ended up installing another player (the name of which is escaping me at the moment), which plays those sorts of videos flawlessly so the issue wasn't hardware based.

vlc has had some problems with decoding UHD/4K video (stuttering/chopping etc.).  i have a beast of a machine and you'd think i'm on my packard bell from 1995 when playing 4K videos i've downloaded.  i haven't tried in a while, so the issue might be fixed, but reading around i learned it was a bug that was on the list of upcoming fixes.

They probably laid off the three dudes that maintained the Games section and used the meager savings to go all in on stories about Kim Kardashian's fat arse.
Oh and maybe a blueberry muffin every morning for Katie Couric.

you're probably closer to the truth than one might think.

Quote from: Walks_At_Night on January 04, 2018, 07:32:07 PM
Indeed.

Yahoo needs to do the same an just admit it's dead.    I just received this missive from them:

When you can't fund Fanstasy Golf maintenance anymore, you know it's time to close up shop.   What's funny is I've never tried
fantasy golf.

the first big yahoo casualty was their games section years ago.  i used to play spades on yahoo almost daily.  then... poof.  it was gone.  i can't begin to imagine how they were unable to keep that going.  i mean... imagine the server load for me to send a single packet of data instructing the server i've played a card.  must have been multitudes of interconnected data centers to keep that going.

/sarcasm

anyway, it was great.  i haven't played spades in any capacity since they shut that down.

But just stay silent. What would anybody do if the con, if that what it was, came to light? Not enough $ to sue over except in small claims court, nobody knows who she is (or at least I don't,) and it likely not illegal to ask for 'help' and dupe people into giving you an A/C on the internet (I don't specifically recall how she asked for the A/C money?)  It is weird. I've known people with cancer who didn't get so many infections, bites, illnesses, etc and their immune system is super compromised. It is a weird storyline to come up, and keep running with, to get away with a small con for a window unit A/C! Though maybe more is being done via PMs etc?

i don't think it was a con or anything.  i think she just doesn't want to do the show anymore but feels obligated to people due to the prior help they gave.  she doesn't want to let them down and/or humiliate herself.

just pull the band-aid off, i say.

wow.  three people had fats domino.
