Things have changed tho. You used to be able to go straight to the link provided in imgur and drop it in img tags and have your image display.

Now you have to right click and get the address for it to work. They are two very different addresses.

This is an accurate post. I think imgur wanted a way to filter traffic somehow, no other explanation for doing this.

firefox was hijacked by some kind of extremely malicious malware a couple months back, I had to isolated the entire process and uninstall firefox permanently.

no issues with classic un-upgraded IE yet.

I guess we solved why I don't have this right click option.

ok ur trolling now, good for u, doesn't change the fact that you kicked this line of discussion off by being a baddy

I'm still using the windows 7 I downloaded when it first launched, but its at least 64 bit.

I did at the end of last month, and did clean installs. You have six days left to decide if you are going to take the crappy free winX upgrade/downgrade. Nah, it's not bad, but Ubuntu or something might be a better choice at this point, or even on a dual boot. Of course someone on a win7 32bit, most anything is definitely an improvement with a newer OS.

I actually used to be able to dual boot Ubuntu, but i just didn't see any reason for it. I haven't used it or any other linux in probably 5+ years, but at that time Ubuntu was the best and I still thought it was inferior to even winXP in virtually every way possible.

I thiiink Ubuntu is considered 2nd or 3rd best now, but just minor differences. 5yrs, yeah that's a long time. Just depends what you do with it, much like Android is a Linux kernel and you do Android stuff with it, as well as some emulation now.

Security is my main concern, support, then ease of use. For some, that's reversed (ode to early versions of Widow Maker and Blackbox hehe - imo HLFS best). But Ubuntu has come a long way with ease of use as well as support by/for Linux in general. Security has always been there. Like I can launch the Steam app from Ubuntu and play my favorite games all natively. Not all games, but oddly all my fav Steam games have Linux support now. You can see what games are supported from the steam store page, will have a Steam Play icon next to the Windows or Mac icon. Then Ubuntu has their own Google Play style system now, called Ubuntu Software Center. Outside of native app support, the windows emulator has made a lot of progress, most stuff runs.

Microsoft's Windows 10 upgrades are getting even more sneaky-pushy
Fearing forced Windows 10 upgrades, users are disabling critical updates instead

Ubuntu tour hehe:

Just mimics the UI, it's not really running the OS in your browser ... yet.

Why I still use win7. With Vulkan getting more popular, I don't even see win10 (new directx) being necessary here soon.

For as long as they allow you to I guess. That end of life cycle may come much more quickly now than it did for XP. Yeah that's what I upgraded windows from, 7 to 10. Have had no problems with it after setting it up right/fine tuning, disabling or uninstalling certain things etc.
