Personally I love IPB3 and I hope the devs are able to fix the problem

Agreed. I've been an IP.Board user for years (I now refuse to use vBulletin as v4.0, along with the changes made to their corporate structure following their acquisition, turned me off rather quickly) and v3.0 is absolutely fantastic. Such scripts will always run differently depending on the hardware (and software) configuration "behind the curtain". It takes time and patience to take care of the kinks (trust me, I know), and the developers here have done a fantastic job of diagnosing the situation and proactively resolving it.

I've been a vBulletin user for years, and I refuse to touch IBP until it fixes the bug where hovering over a thread title in the threadlist view produces the date the thread was started instead of a preview of the thread.

I've also been a vBulletin user for a number of years, I've maintained god knows how many in the past, and I'm still heading a couple of small ones out there, but ever since vBulletin 4.0 has been released, we've all kind of gone "Wait a minute..."

... And those two sites are now switching! Currently fiddling about with porting a theme to IPB3. It's not easy. But vBulletin 4.0 looks even more complicated.

I think I've tinkered with every kind of popular system, even skinned a unique system my friend made, and sold for a nice sum. vBulletin 3 was ideal. Great piece of software, and a joy to customise. All this new stuff is a pain though.

Great news. IPB is much better than vBulliten anyway. Also, great news on the forums being back!

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      The memory and nvme can be swapped and upgraded with standard parts. But the GPU cannot, which is the weakest part of the box. It's a dead product at these prices.

      Sounds like the debloated build you are running is missing some components that the Photos app and Snipping Tool rely on.

      Apparently, Microsoft doesn't use water in their taps, washrooms or clean their facility. /sarc

      Wow, throwback.  VERY VERY briefly - but realised that it wasn't the language I needed for the tasks I was taking on.
    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
