I think that's an interesting way to deal with it. Can that be done? Make signatures past a certain size optionally expandable?

I think Appiah4 makes a strong point. Every forum I have been a member of has had explicit signature image number, height, and size.

I'm amazed that someone thought that SS himself was offering to troubleshoot issues with the drivers themselves, and not the site. No one person has that kind of time on their hands given how many drivers are on that site and how many downloads occur.

It's because it doesn't have support for Cyrix/TI's implementation of A20M#, Address Bit 20 Mask. It's not part of the typical pin out of a 386SX, as such, the pin on the SXLC-40 that would assert A20M# is likely not connected (N/C). If you have a scope, you can easily check it, but even a simple …

I've run into a interesting Cyrix conundrum recently, but with regards to coprocessors. Cyrix created a coprocessor that was intended to be used with their 486SLC CPU's, the SLC87. It was offered in a PLCC-68 package just like their Intel 387SX and 387SL counterparts, and numerous other 387 plug-in …

As was said above, by Daniël Oosterhuis, it is a single line of code. I trust his assessment. I doubt a single line of code commented out would caused the entire site to implode, and if it does, then I can quite rather confidently say it was not built correctly to start with. No site should be so …

Another reason for someone to stop the cursor change is to get back the text-selection cursor, which is also decided that we shouldn't have. Agreed. This is a standard feature people expect. Sat down and went through some Google searches, and I finally figured out how to disable it with Stylish. As …

For those of us that need the "Extra Large" cursor for accessibility reasons, it is quite a substantial difference. https://i.imgur.com/BrCJbEz.png The difference is even greater when scaling is needed which makes the cursor even larger, but which is also ignored by this site. The issue with the " …

Fair enough. Agree to disagree regarding said individuals motivations. I appreciate your balanced response. I find most mods in most places aren't quite so reasonable. *tips his hat*

I agree that it is bad form to hijack the cursor, IMO. But you are blowing this completely out of proportion and using people with disabilities as scapegoats for your own agenda. Handling the cursor IS on Snover's list. So please back off and calm down. Pushing the button again and again won't make …

That is really weird. Edge is basically just a rebranded Chrome, but yes - it does not switch to the Vogons mouse cursor. :) It is loading the CSS rule for the cursor image, though - just not applying it. So that's probably a bug that might be "fixed" in the future. Anmerkung 2020-04-21 225945.jpg …

Just for some input on the shrinking cursor problem, I was alerted to the fact that it does not happen on Microsoft Edge for some reason. It just leaves the cursor alone. As such, at least the usability issue regarding the custom cursor can be avoided, at least for now. So, I guess the problematic …
