Oh crap, we were meant to announce today?

...right, I need to get some more money.

Jesus, that is some seriously tough month! Being able to remain positive is a true testament to the strength of your will, haha. An excellent opportunity to get through some TV series I guess.

The amount of stuff that creeps into a home is astonishing. I was thinking of moving again recently, and then I basically replayed the last move in my head, and the pain came flooding back from my memories so intensely that I screwed that idea off immediately. I now have things like a pretty big bed, sofa, computer desk, bookcase, etc and so many small things that are hell to move.

I've got to be honest, I really miss just living in pre-furnished apartments. It was nice knowing that I could just up and leave relatively easily, whether it be to another place in the same city or another city entirely. Moving non-furniture items is pretty straightforward because at least you can do it in regular cars with family or whatever. Once you get into the realm of big furniture we're talking significant labour and the need for a van, plus it all has to be done in pretty much one go — no moving a bit at a time like I could when I just had general crap to move.

When I do next move, I might very well try to just offload all of my furniture. It's going to hold me back too much if I decide to move to London, abroad, etc.

lmao. I think that will have to be my 2016 goal, that isn't happening this year. :cool:

At the moment it's in the region of 1400, but I do sometimes drop down if I go out and beast a huge meal at a restaurant or something. I do 5000-ish steps a day too.

Essentially I use the app's weekly view (set to always go from Monday) to ensure that I hit what my overall calorie intake for the week should be, which was a move that made a big difference compared to my previous approach of only thinking day by day.

It seemed to be set to 0.5MB of attachments per post, which wasn't intentional. I've now set it to the intended limits, which is 50MB per user for all attachments, and 5MB of attachments per post.

Hello new friend.

I find it quite convenient, makes it easier to preview what the final post will look like (which is good because I did notice there's no formal preview feature). With that said, you still get the in-editor preview if you use 'Insert other media'.

If it does annoy everyone it's probably an option I can experiment with when there's time. This is the kind of thing I expect the vendor will get a lot of feedback about so they might very well make it a per-user option, or a plugin will appear doing so.

The binge effect is a bastard. Sometimes I'll really fancy a big cookie or doughnut, but the shop only has them in packs of four or five. Naturally I buy the whole pack and eat them all at once, but what's scary is it's so easy. Fortunately I now control my week-to-week eating so occasionally doing this doesn't really matter.

Excellent. I too have done it all through healthy eating, specifically tracking everything through MyFitnessPal. I haven't done any meaningful exercise, but I think I'll need to start doing that soon so I can replace my flab with something resembling muscle.

Let us hope. :cool:

lmao, no idea. It was the first thing I saw on gfycat.

Hmm, I messed around with it and it looks like he used the 'Insert other media' button that's around the bottom of the editor. I was able to get it to insert Squad's, but the one you tried to post doesn't seem to work. I don't know much about gfycat but that seem like it's the way to go. If it doesn't work with certain gfycats then maybe it's just a bug (next bug fix patch is next week).

Where was that? It might be that this new version supports gfycat using the new 'just works' media embedding stuff. It basically intercepts URLs of things like YouTube videos, images, etc and shows them right away without you needing to use buttons to insert them. The only thing to watch out for is that Chrome can be a butt and automatically turn copied URLs into formatted links, so you'd probably need to remove the link formatting in that case.

The sharp-eyed may spot that I've dropped about 46 pounds since early last year. It's getting harder now though, still about 24 left before I hit my target weight. :oops:

@jackophant I think there's a caching issue at play, because yesterday I had the full set of buttons appearing in the mobile view after I added some extra ones, which was way too much for such a small area. Doing a hard refresh fixed it.

Quote from El Moroes

Where is the option to see the signatures ? I can't find it and I can't see the signatures anymore.

Signatures are disabled at the moment, largely because I haven't had time to set them up properly. A problem we were having before is that signatures were slowing threads down substantially, due to all the images loading and such. There were also quite a few excessively big ones, which was annoying to browse past.

Because we've never had any real rules concerning signatures, they've been temporarily disabled while I focus on other issues and also so that I can monitor performance without them in place. I will re-enable them in some form before long.

Quote from Vorontsov

I don't understand the red line(s) very well, it seems to fuck shit up for me (fucked up my formatting once) and I have to kinda edit it manually.

Oh, right. The red line thing seems to be common to the whole editor, I'm not sure what exactly it's for. I assumed it was just a guide to see where paragraphs end.

Yep it'll be back, it's lower on the list than a few other things but it'll magically reappear before long.
