No need to apologize. You are doing a bang-up job. With you actually seeing the issue at least I know that I'm not going insane. LOL. Thanks for looking into this minor glitch.

Edit. Sigh, seems post went through even with error and double posted. LMAO. After clicking preview 50+ times on above post to test things out, add/change text, re-work sentences, etc I get an Internal Server Error after I click post. Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal...

Yes I could copy/paste text. But if I copy/paste, then edit/add text or just click preview again, the edit box is once again emptied. Problem seems to be (at least in my case) that once a post has its text wiped out by clicking preview, every time from then on (that post only) if you click...

WTH. I just tested it myself and like Lunar I'm getting the same problem. Reply with quote, click go advanced, and all the text in edit box is gone. The original message is very short so there goes my theory regarding "long" posts not getting quoted properly due to size. Perhaps there is...

Laser headlights. Youtube Link.

Damn the 27" size. I want a larger size of 36-40" at my current DPI, not the same small size and higher DPI. I already need reading glasses as it is. Oh and 5120x3200 (16:10) would be even better but I know that there probably wont be anything other than 16:9 that's under $5k any time...

Yes. Same physical layout of mounting holes.

If you need an even longer reach @ f/4 look here. Of course your 1200mm is cheap as compared to this, 17 times the price.

Agreed. 36" would be nice. Actually I'd love a 36-40" 3840x2560 (3:2) monitor, but that will never happen. It's a conspiracy to keep monitor buyers dissatisfied so they will want to buy something else next year. I "can't wait" for the ubar-super-duper-wide 45" 6144x1080. lol.

Interesting. And it makes sense that this site doesn't have its own physical server as you have to keep costs down as there is zero revenue generated here. Perhaps one of the other sites that share the same physically server is misbehaving, but I'd guess that's out of your control. Anyways...

Gotcha. So only 31 people (who are logged in) visit this site per month?!? Seems low, but perhaps people are not bothering to log in. So site usage is very unlikely to be the cause of the occasional slow performance or internet server errors.

Members: 641 Active Members : 31 So what constitutes an active member? One post/month, week, day? One, two, three, etc logins a week? Etc? Sorry 4am and can't get to sleep.

I forgot to post this when it happened but site was really slow again and I got an "Internal Server Error" again. I think around 3'ish am AZ time, but not sure. Sorry don't have specifics so not much help.

Yeah it was that post. Just tried it again. "Reply with Quote", clicked "go advanced" and all quoted text is gone. Edit: After I clicked "go advanced" all the text in the larger edit box is gone but the preview above the large text entry box still has the quoted text. I copy and pasted that...

Camera of the Year Camera of the Year: Nikon D750. According to Jan'15 Popular Photography. Of course me buying a D750 would be like DD buying THIS.

I haven't ridden or even owned a bike since 2005. Mountain biking exclusively. Miss it, but don't know if/when I'll get back into it.

Good info on the Canon ultra-wide zooms. Any idea how the Canon 16-35/4 compares to the Nikon 16-35 f/4? Or 18-35 f/3.5-4.5. The D610 is a touch better, interesting. As I'm intrigued by this Nikon 20mm f/1.8 lens. Seems to test very well, just came out late last year and is 2-1/3 stop faster...

Thanks for the long and very reformative post Lunar. Are there any good web site that do serious objective/technical reviews of lenses now-a-days? I remember back in the day the various photo mags had pretty comprehensive reviews. Perhaps I just need to go to the book store and pick up some...

The multi-quote function is giving me fits so I'll just reply individually. Gotcha. Nikon had holes in their lens lineup, whereas Canon has some decent mid-range lenses. I leaning toward the 6D now. I no longer have my Minolta XG1 film camera or lenses/accessories/darkroom/etc/etc items. I...

Problem with large multi-quote posts Update. This is happening again. But I think it's a problem with the "multi-quote" function and not simply the preview post function. I multi-quoted three large, multi-line posts in the DSLR thread and then the preview post button wiped out all the...

Are you using the 10-22mm on a FX or DX body? A 24mm lens on a DX body would be about 35mm or so on an FX body. That's not wide enough for what I want to do, or think I want to do. Sorry for the confusion. Me and a friend want to get back into photography. My friend's friend is doing the...

Well I did some quick early morning Googling and discovered that full-frame cameras are going to be out of my friends price range and most likely out of my price range as well. Having to multiply by 1.5 or 1.6 is gonna kill the selection of ultra wide angle lenses, as I'd like a 20mm...

I need some serious DSLR education. After nearly two decades me and a friend want to "get back into" photography. Mostly landscape/nature and macro photography. A little background. Time frame was early 80s to mid 90s. Camera/lenses: Minolta XG-1 with Minolta 50mm f/1.7 (my setup) and a...

4K monitor Acer B6 B326HK YMJDPPHZ (Yes that's the goofy model number) 32" 4K IPS monitor for sale here and here. Linus YouTube review here. Acer link here. If this was 36" I'd be very close to pulling the trigger.

Holly sweet mother of the lego god. If my nephew (5 yo) saw that table he'd pass out. BTW I have that same table, except the smaller 4 chair version. I'm 2h48m late (here in AZ, USA)...but I'd also like to wish everybody a Merry Christmas and happy New Year.

ZFS is a file system. What about something similar to Parchive for individual files? I remember when I used usenet, PAR2 files were the shit and were great for recovering corrupted files. As I recall the PAR2 parity files could be adjusted to allow for more parity information to be saved to...

I guess I could Google, but is there any pre-written scripts floating around I could follow if I ever got one of those calls? I have nowhere near the technical knowledge of most/all of you here and I could never pull off what Chewy did. LMAO.

I stopped being a daily reader to Anandtech a few years ago when they started reviewing cameras, Apple, phone, mobile, etc. When Anandtech was PC-centric I was a big fan, but the later years they were pretty much Meh. I will give them credit as their PC "tech" articles, Chipset/CPU articles...

Digital storage of any physical media: CD/DVDs/BD, MHD, SSDs, USB sticks, memory cards, tape, etc, has a limited storage life. Either the media degrades or the reader no longer works. If you have "digital information" you want to keep secure and error free for years/decades to come, you only...

1) If the phone companies lost money because of telemarketing, telemarketing would not exist. 2) Plenty of criminals/assholes willing to steal from people to make money. 3) Plenty of good, honest, TRUSTING, folks who will fall for scams. 4) Telemarketing/email-scams/phishing/malware, etc, etc...

^^^ sounds great. Can't wait for the extended edition Blu-Ray of the trilogy, like I did with the first three movies.

+1 Site is nice and zippy now. Less than 2 seconds to load a new/different thread, launch a post, preview a post or just general site navigation. Was taking 5-10 seconds for loads before. Post speed is better also. <edit: 2 seconds to post vs 45 secs before> Much thanks.

G.Skill Phoenix Blade (480GB) PCIe SSD Review on Anandtech. Interesting. It's bootable on older systems. From the review, "The Phoenix Blade is bootable in any system. Upon boot, the drive loads legacy drivers before the BIOS and hence it can be selected as a boot device just like any other...

Yesterday I logged into my Hotmail account that I've had since the 90's (check it once/month) and was hit with a shit-storm of "Hotmail wants to create cookie XYZ" because I had "don't accept cookies" checked in Firefox. There must have been 25+ dialog boxes stacked on top of each other. You...

Another FYI. Took about 45 seconds to complete a post @ 3:25am (AZ time) seems like it took a while to post. If this sounds like complaining. I'm not. Completely happy with this board, its users and its operations, just concerned that things haven't been "right" this past week or so. MUCH...

When I was 175# I had a 32" waist and seemed tiny. But I guess with everybody so fat here in 'merica 140# seems light. There are a million different things you can do/try but only a few will work for you. And those are different from what will work for me or anybody else. Just don't let...

Thank You Very Much for upping the edit timer.

Been having random 5-10 second delays the last 3-5 days when navigating the board/site. Don't know if it's my end or not. I'm on 100/10 mb/s cable. I just had a site hiccup and thought I should post this. Took about 45 seconds after I clicked POST and got the "Internal Server Error 500" or...

Sweet jesus, That's awesome. I once got down to 175 lbs once, but that was 20 years ago. I'm 5'10", 175 lbs would be a dream weight, 185 is a realistic goal for me. I've been 208-212 lbs for the past 15 years and since im getting into late 40s I need to "get going" before it's too late. So...

LOL Merc. I'm actually glad this topic came up again as I'd like everybody's opinion on the use of browser cookies. I tried blocking ALL cookies, except for banking, the few web forums I use, gmail, youtube, etc. Basically stuff I use all the time. But I eventually get some weird problem and...

I agree that there are times/places when a fast "no change" timer makes sense. I just don't see it here on this board. The s/n ratio is high. There are very few political discussions that get heated enough were somebody would feel the need to change a post. And the benefits would out way the...

I've had that problem as well in the past, but this doesn't seem "slow server" related as I get instantly re-directed. WTF! I actually want to buy some crap but I keep getting re-directed. Sigh. I'm In. I was thinking the same thing last night. Figure out what spare parts you don't have...

I was using Firefox 33 and have updated to 34 and still have the same problem with Newegg re-directs to this page. I tried signing up for the newsletter, which I already receive. And clicked the "letest email deal" button as well. Going to try to wipe all cookies then allow all cookies to see...

"The real and complete story - Does Windows defragment your SSD?" Interesting post here.

Can we get please, pretty please, have the "edit post timer" increase from 5 minute to something longer? An hour? A day? 3-days? This would ease the pain for those with OCD or those who want to fix their mistakes, etc? MUCH THANKS!

Sigh. Tried killing scripts, Allowing all scripts, played with cookie settings. Works OK with IE 11. Ack!

WTF is wrong with Newegg's site? Anybody having problems with Newegg's web site? I select computer hardware, then say SSDs, then I select Samsung but I get redirected to: http://promotions.newegg.com/welcome/index.html Doesn't matter the category or the search, every time I try to narrow my...

"The SSD Endurance Experiment: Two freaking petabytes" Link here.

Small world. Mom recently took her cat to the vet and returned alone :((( The poor lil guy was miserable. Hid in closet. Labored breathing. Sickly drool. Over $500 in vet bills/medicine no help. I suggested she end his suffering. Then I started to feel a bit guilty because maybe he just...

I posted that Phillips 40" 4k monitor in the "4k" thread. Now that is something pretty close to what I'd want before I upgrade.
