I forgot about this thread...yeah, I use lower brightness on the monitor. Still, dark mode just looks wrong to my eyes and brain.

I don't know where to write this, but when I refresh the page all pictures increase the view count by +1.
If I refresh the page 20 times all pics will get a +20 count.
IDK if it is me but I tried with all my browsers and the result is the same.

I see the same - to some extent - it seems that it's only the first refresh, that counts the views.

If it's dual it's kind of cool ... 😎

I can go on to 100 and it still counts.
I use the latest Firefox.
This is funny.

On the color schemes, I just ran across this post: https://social.chinwag.org/@mike/114599586008008583 While many of us with normal vision can find the current two color scheme options perfectly alright (or at least not completely unusable) it does seem it is a legitimate problem for some people. After all, not everyone has the same vision.

Most sites these days just have an option at the bottom of the page (or sometimes even the top) to toggle a dark mode, but I do think both the current default color scheme and the alternate are a bit lacking in contrast and such anyway. Something a little more akin to classic schemes would likely help a lot of people.

Anyone else having a TON of errors on the forums lately? Not sure how long... maybe the last couple days?

Every time I post I get an error message. Every. Single. Time. I. Post.

If I hit the back button a couple times to get back to the thread and then refresh the page the post is always there, but this is really annoying. The site has popped up one of those errors from time to time for years (some days more than others) but today, it is every single time.

Does anyone know what causes this?

EDIT: 🤣... it didn't error when I posted this one of course..............

EDIT2: Also didn't error when I edited the post.

Now for some blitting from the back buffer.

How cool it would be if vogons formatted sSpecs as hyperlinks to CPU-world, as CPU-world does ... 😀

Just posting here, what I did in another thread ...

There's been some interruptions due to DoS attacks recently.
