I just had a file paused at 39% upload and then seemed to hang.  Eventually I reloaded the website and reuploaded which got me thing of duplicate file checking at upload.

My suggestion would be if a duplicate image were uploaded e.g. this one,



then the first uploader is provided the delete key, but the second, third etc uploaders only get shown the codes that are shown on e.g. this page: https://www.talkimg.com/image/aDCN

Then again if multiple uploaders have uploaded the *exact* same file, then perhaps a file is automatically prevented from being deleted?

In any event, duplicate file checking would reduce file storage sizes.

Have you seen this thread: TalkImg.com - Image hosting for BitcoinTalk it's a new image hosting site for imagery used on the forum (I've already used it here)

25 minutes in and the Broncos are pouring on the points:



The Canberra Raiders won the earlier match against the Bulldogs in a high scoring game 34 - 30.

It's the so called "Magic Round" - Round ten of the 2023 NRL Season kicks off in Brisbane tonight with all eight games being played at Lang Park here in Brisbane.

The Wests Tigers are even with the Dragons at $1.88 each (a far cry from last week when they paid out nearly $7)  Saint George are languishing near the bottom of the ladder, so I'm going with the Tigers who are riding high after their first win last week.

The only two "upsets" will be if the Warriors and Dolphins win their matches.  I feel confident they will.

Over in Rugby Union, these are the series that are on offer over at nitrobetting.eu



I've hardly had time to stop and smell the flowers let alone study their form, so I'll have to leave my bets on Union games for this week.

You can't smoke joints with a rolled up bitcoin.

Feel free to join this discussion: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5451026.0

Whatever you're smoking I want some.

Pass the Booze and Hookers!


You'll be in your teens by then.

Newbies concoct all kinds of sob stories and invariably someone (usualy another unsuspecting newbie) will "lend" them funds only to have the borrower not return.

A newbie who lends just enough often enough could then progress to member ...etc and become Legendary then carpet pull / exit scam with the Jackpot such as walking away with privkeys, or worse still the bag of the Forum itself having gained trust wholly through taking out loans.

Along the way hardcore scammers just ask for loans and walk away with the lender's funds.  We've seen it happen all to often - check out the scam accusation threads if you don't believe me.

Hello again, my last two lightning channels on my Zap app won't close - even recently when the mempool was empty and I used the high fees setting. (Neither balance has shifted in a very long time)

One is with BC games, the other is coinplaza - I was just wondering is there anything I can do to force their closure outside of making contact with either site and asking them to close the channel at their end?

---

---

I'd like to revisit Lightning Network as I believe it is essential for micro payments, however a great many nodes are now hidden behind the onion curtain, so I'll either have to find an app that has an in built Tor connection setting, or find channels in the clear that will connect with small (sub $100) channels.

1ml.com website shows a great many nodes that are in the clear, but when I try to connect, the channels are closed immediately so I'm wasting my time at the moment establishing new channels hence I've been closing all I have.

I would like to have an account via TalkImg.com - how do I go about arranging this?

---

---

Instead of a delete button, perhaps an "expires in XXX days/weeks/months/years etc" - or no delete.

The advantage of this is limiting image hosting used for auctions, sales or giveaways that are done in a matter of days or even weeks.  Those pages are not likely to be viewed in more than a few months time, so it won't matter if it comes up with an "image not found" notice.

I've just made a small donation - hope it helps.


May I suggest two or three from four or five wallet holders?  (Safer to err on the side of caution from the outset)

Some other questions:

• I use lightscreen - can your site be added in the app?
• I've read others expressing concerns over the file size of the gallery over time becoming too huge to handle.  Can external sites such as drop box be integrated?  i.e. if a user has a dropbox/cloud account the images are backed up to their own dropbox and called on as needed (or seldom used images be ported to cloud style services while high volume images are kept on the talkimg site.
• There was an issue with http Vs https for some images a year or two ago.  Anyone who changes the BBCode from http to https has their images restored, however there are a great deal of those images that haven't had their code fixed.  AFAIK there hasn't been a sweep done to identify those images with broken links.  In that context, can you see that kind of thing becoming an issue with your site?
• When I right click "save as" an image posted on the BCT website all images have a generic ip.bitcointalk file name.  I see there is a link to the talkimg website for examples posted above, however, I was just wondering about an image that is used with a URL for a third party website - can the file name of the image be included?
• These two images still haven't uploaded after thirty minutes many hours.
  
  
  
  (It says upload complete, but nothing else has happened - no BBcode, nothing)
• Donations:  A QR code for the wallet address might be handy.
• Quote from: taufik123 on April 29, 2023, 11:05:32 PM
  For the sustainability of TalkImg's image hosting, there must be a donation button so that those who want to donate and support the website to continue to exist can donate directly via Bitcoin or other coins.
  
  I'd really only suggest Lightning and maybe one or two others (ETH seems to have outrageously sky high TX fees, so I wouldn't recommend them)
• Perhaps a separate thread walk-through on how to integrate TalkImg into any screen-grab style program? (e.g. the how to sign a message that scoured practically all wallet types available at that time)
• Backups:  A monthly update with the most recent uploaded images would help in the event of a disaster e.g. date centre fire that wipes out countless terabytes of data in one foul swoop.  Perhaps these could be offered for down load, or sold with the proceeds being used to maintain the site in perpetuity?
• FTP:  I haven't used FTP for many years, but from recollection, the protocol is only used for give/take - I don't think it would be useful as there would be no BBcode or delete token issued

I'm trying to find the original transparent version of this so I can have it hosted on your site (irony - hotlinked from archive.today )

Anyone translating the thread should forward the merits earned to the OP @joker_josue (i.e the one from two merits)

I'll spread the word amongst the Known Alts of any-one - A User Generated List ^{Mk IV} investigators.

Kudos.

As do I.

The world not to mention scamming has changed a lot just in the last five years - given this thread is predominantly in favour of the restriction being implemented, then it should be responded to by whomever has the final say.

PayPal is another area where scammers are preying on unsuspecting forum members yet neither the Admin/mods, LoyceV nor theymos seem interested in intervention to protect such forum members who have been scammed by their continued silence on the matter.

Too hard? Not really.  Just restrict access to newbies and Jr Members from those sections.

I would also add jr members as well as newbies being banned from posting in the lending section (and there would be a case to make for the currency exchange section being added to that list, too).

Just to let you know my TOR browser just updated to version 12.0.5 ^{(from an older version 11.X - without being prompted to do so)} and like TheBeardedBaby all of my BPIP choices had toggled to OFF and wouldn't remain toggled ON.

May I suggest you add a screen shot such as this to the first post to alert other users when their browsers update and they find their instance of BPIP ^{(mine is ver 2.2.5)} also grinding to a halt.





Thanks.

O.P. hasn't been online for three weeks, so I doubt it.

Then there's Funexchange (not connected to the above, but then again, who knows?) add in sasa87it - I've just found another alt sucaforte87it

... another flag ...

Nice catch there - I've created some flags for these newbie loan scammers.  Please support.

It's not necessary to start a third loan application simply because people have informed you you need to provide collateral.

Lock these threads and have a long hard look at yourself.

Time to lock this thread.

Interesting that you and kristycryptop felt the need to restart your loan applications when other users offered suggestions on how you can obtain a loan by providing collateral.

O.P. : Time to lock this thread given you have created a new thread for the same loan application.

If you were genuine in your loan application, you would take on board the suggestions made in the previous thread which you haven't locked.
