Speaking of which, does anyone know where I can find a picture from the moon, of an astronaut and the earth in the same photo?

Something like this?

[Descan]

 Pretty sure those weren't taken from the moon, guys.

Probably not gonna find an Apollo image like that as this would have to be done during Lunar night, which to the best of my knowledge had no survace EVA.

Scrub that, found one. Given as link as its huuuugeeeeee!

Holy crap, that spoiler singlehandedly froze up my browser O_O

[MonkeyHead]

Well, it is REALLY FUCKING BIG and comes with a warning. Sorry. Will change it to a link.

[LordSlowpoke]

aeiou

there, fixed.

[Sirus]

The image still loads even if you don't open the spoiler, which can crash some people's browsers or eat up limited bandwidth. Links are better for ohmygodsofreakingbig images like that one

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I can't even get it to load.

The sound on my computer is being mega weird for some reason, D:

firefox

this is exactly why i kept running 1.6 for so long this is shit-tier behavior right there, working perfectly fine but after an update's released freezing up like it's an antivirus on windows xp during the main conficker breakout

i almost forfeited three pokemonshowdown matches thanks to your bullshit

You know, I never saw any evidence that conflicker actually did anything meaningful to anybody.

[LordSlowpoke]

yeah, the dangers it posed were hugely overblown but it was very good at disabling antivirus software, and infiltration in general, during the relevant time period

hence the reference.

AFAIK, it slowly "evolved" over multiple stages, each with their own behavior and quite good at the advoiding of security measures (mainly due to the fact that it used pretty much every vulnerability or spreading tactic available over different variants, thus being harder to catch), and with it's last "stage" it would drop a botnet worm and a rogue AV.

Why is it impossible to find cool wallpapers in standard resolutions? If anybody owns a display in 960:566, 768:908 or 512:613, please let me know so I can smack you and tell you to quit making wallpapers that only fit your stupid monitor. It's especially frustrating to find a really cool wallpaper that I like, only to find that it fits the creator's demented mind and nothing else.

It's worst when you have a really large resolution monitor.  Most wallpapers you find listed at 2560x1600 are really lower res images that somebody took 5 seconds to scale up, seemingly unaware that the result looks horrible.

Oh, no, they know. They also know that there's a "stretch" option for background images and it's basically the same useless thing.
Grr.
