I've updated the board frontend to the latest work in progress version. This is a total rewrite that purges nearly all old code, which is why it took so long to make. It does not yet have everything I want to add, but it is already five times more powerful than the old site and makes the place so much easier to use. With this update, we are closer to parity with other imageboards out there, both in features, and in site layout, but we are not there yet.


Some highlights are:
- entire front-end rewritten from scratch, with nearly all of the old code base purged from this side (the backend has not been touched to avoid compatibility issues).
- new responsive layout, with a more old school imageboard mode. The layout is based on the browser window size. On desktop PCs, it looks like a traditional imageboard, but on tablet or collapsed windows, it looks like the previous plus4chan layout. I may make a switch later to force either style, should you guys have a preference.

Can you give any good reason for why you think that, because I don't see any. One of those posts is even the guy who keeps making the new threads, that's as far away from "shitting up the board" as possible.

Starting one because I have a question but let's have it be general purpose for anyone that comes along.

I was messing around and broke one of the fans on the laptop cooling pad/stand I have it sitting on.
Need to replace it, does anyone have advice on what model I should buy this time?

The old one just had two fans, one of my friends sent me it.

>According to asset tracking service Lansweeper, Windows 10 still runs on 16.9 percent of the Windows devices it monitors, or "roughly one in six." A year ago, the operating system accounted for about half of the machines in its dataset, falling to the low-to-mid 40 percent range by the time Microsoft ended standard support.

>The decline continued after that, reaching 18.6 percent in June, but Lansweeper says migration has now slowed to a crawl.

Yes, but the mass adoption of the computer means there are now more idiots with access to tech than at any other time in history, and it doesn't take many interactions with these nitwits to realize that for them "best practice" means reminding themselves never to stick their fingers in electrical outlets.

Someone dismissed the idea of such a thread but it actually seems worthwhile.
A place where you can post links to videos you encounter and feel worth sharing or talk about particular channels you like.

To get it rolling would bring up the Townsends channel.
Its about American colonial-era history and re-enactment and is ran by an extremely charming little man named Jon Townsend.

I used to believe it was purely automated, but now I'm not so sure. I've heard of seemingly ordinary users replying to anons with oblique remarks to the effect that perhaps a little vacation is in order, after which the anons being replied to will suddenly stop posting, only to reappear days or weeks later saying their IP was temporarily blocked for abuse, even though they'd broken no rules.

If that isn't janitors abusing their powers by going over the mods' head and handing out pseudo-bans, then it's a very curious coincidence. Assuming it's true, that is.

The april source code leak shows that it is automated, and is based on a calculated threat score. If your score is too high, it throws the dice on whether to block your next post or not, then logs this block into your IP/session. Famously, the check completely buggered Firefox and one way to get out of it was to make a single post with Chrome, which then removed the block from your session and you could post from Firefox again.

4chan still gets half a million posts each day and people bitch about it being broken regularly, so the chances of this happening by coincidence is pretty high.
