I would also suggest that users add my hosts.txt file.

Or if you are feeling brave I also have a list of every host I have ever found.

http://notbob.i2p/hosts-all.txt

Note that these are automaticity generated from ongoing scans of the network and only include alive hosts. If a host has been dead too long it gets removed from the list.

You can see the full details at http://notbob.i2p

As long as the ATF are allowed to dictate law without congressional approval I wont consider this a win. The likely did this because they were worried that enough people would contact there congressmen or file law suits against them.

I can import and export jpg files just fine on gimp 2.10.
If you're talking about not being able to "Save" or "Save As" a jpg, all you have to do is select "Export" or "Export As" (Ctrl+E and Ctrl+Shift+E) from the same menu or just replace the Ctrl+S for the same.

Hey /u/trw, thanks for stopping by. I still need to read up on federated sites more, it's certainly something I've seen mentioned often but not something I'm personally all too familiar with beyond the most basic gist.

I'll add that to the list of things I should know more about, haha.

If anyone is familiar with the ATF and their ever changing interpretations of their own damn rules, you'll understand that this is a big win. They will, seemingly on a whim, pass conflicting statements on gun parts that they previously approved without issue, and sometimes (as seen) reverse those opinions and interpretations again, later.

At least we don't have to worry about getting in trouble for shouldering a pistol brace anymore. I remember having to hold it away from me or cheek weld it anytime the range had some fudds there.

Hi rambler,

nice to see this new site, and the quite frequent use of it. Really like the site as such, as well as the cross network thing you have set up here. Should you ever think about federation, please give us a call at the rocksolid forums.

cheers

I'm going to pin this for a little while just because it's a damn thorough read with good content.

I'm not affiliated with the creator in any way, just thought it was worth the extra attention that pinning it may bring.

If it's so haunting and traumatizing, they shouldn't have starred in a porn movie, shouldn't they? Whatever happened to personal responsibility for ones action?

Since Gimp 2.8 the software refuses to let you open a jpg and save it as jpg. You have to use export instead and jump through some hoops. If you try to save, Gimp tells you no can do. In a really condescending way, too. Pissed me off so much the first time, I immediately rolled it back. Since then I've tried a few more times, but this weird workflow of opening jpgs and having to export them doesn't work for me.

It's an image editor as far as I'm concerned. It's supposed to edit images. Not create elaborate projects worth saving. I open, I edit, I save (to jpg) and I'm done. The stupid export thing will also sometimes keep a useless xfc file. Really aggravating. Like you're not supposed to use the thing as an image editor. Devs have also been extremely conceited when it was pointed out to them how stupid this change was and basically told everyone raising concerns they should use something else. Therefore, this project is pretty much dead to me.

Heh,.. I never forgave them for the "I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you save as *jpg" bullshit, so I stuck with 2.6 and will continue to do so. Possibly I'm completely moving over to ImageMagick, though. Already use it for most of my image editing.

Still no go in Thunderbird with setting up the proxy. I'll dig into it more, because I think that's the ticket. The TorBirdy plugin is outdated and has been for a while, which is what seems to be used previously. I may boot up in Tails or something similar to see if the issue persists.

no, the blockchain is opaque

it's recommended to split purchases into dedicated stealth addresses, and I'd personally do:

buy XMR -> withdraw to stealth address of wallet #1 -> move to stealth address of wallent #2 -> spend
