And so...



... I suck because I don't know how to circumvent that?

Well I still don't know whether it's my or the internet's fault ;)

Well that's quite a bullshit reason, isn't it? Probably because you were the one to dream it up ;)

I think season 5 is the best and most consistently strong season of Lost, even though most people liked season 1 best.

So that means I don't actually suck at hotlinking?

Looks like someone doesn't understand "quotes" as well as he claims to, eh C3?

I liked the first four episodes of S1.  But that's as far as I got.

So now I do suck at hotlinking, because the caches on other computers don't have the gifs in them?

What now?
Lots of prancing around and misaimed attempts at "irony", and I still see no answer.

Jesus, for someone who acts like he's smarter than everyone else on the forum, you sure are dumb sometimes.

There are several ways to make sure you are posting something that everyone will be able to see.  I pretty much came out and described one of them, and you still don't get it.  Not to mention neither I nor C3PX were even talking about hotlinking in that quote.

You're on your own.  Good luck, genius.

Wrong. I only act this way when it's true (i.e. when I have all reasons to conclude that, and it keeps reaffirming itself again and again) - and a situation where I obviously lack knowledge about how hotlinking works, is obviously not included... hence me ASKING QUESTIONS on this subjects.

Actually you were, I asked whether it was my or the internet's fault, and CP said the internet's because I'm always right.
LOL.


And no, you didn't describe anything. First you said "don't think it depends on countries, not sure, whatever", then you said I needed the gifs (or some of them) in my cache in order to see them on my screen.

I'm pretty sure you thought it though... so thanks for the help, I'll be finding out anyway.


PS: Just read through your 3-4 posts on this on the last page, to be sure, and... yea, you didn't say nothing.
Well then.

Season 5 was pretty good.  But I'm pretty sure it painted them into several corners which led to my epic sad at Season 6.

Primarily: Can they change the past?  There are 2 potential outcomes, and both seem highly dissatisfactory.  If they can't change the past, then Season 5 was a big waste of time trying to do it.  If they can, then seasons 1-5 are a waste of time, because it's that past that's being changed and season 6 is essentially a mulligan.  That's why I thought the apparent "dual time line" approach to the start of Season 6 was genius.  It maintained both potential outcomes which seemed to solve, or at least prolong, the problem.

Man, I used to so love LOST.

Fine, the post was tangentially related to hotlinking, but it wasn't the point.  The point was that you are always "right."

This has been fun, but I think I have enough quotes for your thread for today.

I thought that was the argument, not the point. Would be rather weird for it be the point, if the actual point of the context was the hotlinking, eh?
As it stands, the point is as wrong (obviously) as it is a poor, cheap strawman if you consider the quotation marks.

Anyway, thanks for claiming you gave me a tip about hotlinking, while you hadn't, and now weaseling out with this one.

Dishonesty and forgetfulness...


... definitely.

With all due respect, and by that I mean none, are you fucking insane?

I told you about your cache and how it relates to hotlinking.  If you think just a little bit, you'll realize you also now have a way to check and make sure you don't have these problems hotlinking.

Get LOST.

And if I'm such a noob I hadn't known that, how am I supposed to make sure everyone else has it in their cache, too, so they can see the picture, based on your little "hint"?

So I guess the answer is avoiding the pictures that don't show, eh?
Haven't I already said I've been on another computer and the same picture worked just fine? I hadn't visited the original page on that one.

So, somehow, I could see it there, but you can't. Still a cache problem? You said something about gifs "expiring" and "renewing", is that in any way related?
