@W1zzard is there an elegant solution to HTC's request?

@HTC you can always report a post to have the time limit for editing removed ... not that it makes this all better. I believe, that threads can have auto-merge removed, in threads where updating charts or the like is needed. That also would fall on w1zzard to make that change, if applicable. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Thank you, regardless.

I can disable auto-merge for specific threads, just send me the link

@W1zzard F@H badges have been broken for atleast a few days from what I've seen.

This is the output of dev tools.

Two different accounts. looks like some kind of issue with external linking.

Seems our servers' IPs are banned on their server. Fetching locally (right window) works, fetching from TPU = timeout.

I sent them a message through their Contact form, fingers crossed

@Solaris17 this should be fixed now, will just take a bit for the image cache to refresh

Still getting the really slow loading stuff here - its attached images to the forum that load super slowly. i dont get this slow speed on the reviews pages, or with externally linked images

"Fake" reference RX 580?

This is my first time posting here, sorry if I did anything wrong. I saw a used reference RX 580 4GB (at least it is what the seller claims to be) for pretty cheap, so I decided to take the risk and grab it. After confirming that it does work, I proceeded to clean and repaste the card. I also...

^ the images in that page took over two minutes to load on a 100/40 connection... how can i figure out where the issue lies? My ISP is pretty good for user support so if i find the issue is on there end, they'll be able to help fix it.

Instant here (mobile chrome).

I'm on shitty Aussie NBN too and instant here.

well, that sounds like enough to figure out its an issue with my net... passed it on to my ISP

if you run an MTR to TPUs servers it will help you or your ISP find issues in the route.

 

[Mussels]

they asked for me to pingtest or traceroute one of the slow loading images


I can do those to the main TPU site, but how the F do you do that for an image?

The main site loads fine, its only forum attachments that arent

 

[W1zzard]

forum attachments

These are on www.techpowerup.com, too, no difference in network connectivity or path.

 

[Mussels]

might just be a bandwidth issue to the site then i guess, i'll poke info back to them

 

[mtcn77]

Do 'monitors' deserve their seperate section?

 

[P4-630]

@W1zzard , how about linking to other GPU reviews from the table.

 

[Splinterdog]

I'm curious to know how much delay is on merging double posts, or is it infinite?

Just checked the code, it's 20 hours. No specific reason why it's that exact value

 

[Splinterdog]

Gotcha.
Doinf the same on my expats forum and wasn't sure what delay to place on it. I'll probably put a similar figure to avoid double posts.

A few minutes ago:

500 Internal Server Error
nginx/1.18.0

Twitch TV embeds are broken:

Plain link: twitch . tv/videos/726831083?t=36h01m32s

I get "oops something went wrong" when trying to upload a picture from my phone using Firefox mobile. It reaches 100% on upload and then throws error. It works with Brave, so it might be a Firefox issue.

I don't think this is a problem, per say.....but what's with the confirmation of a "like" now? Why did that happen?

If you mean this:

All the reactions have a link to a page like that (see below):

However, you shouldn't be directed there. Maybe you clicked the like button before the page was fully loaded? That was usually the case for me.

I don't think so, but I wouldn't bet my life on it. Either way, we shouldn't see that IMO.
