We have enough for the website and I have sent her the money via paypal, so please stop donating. However, you can use this thread to talk about site issues. Thanks!
*** Update ***
I’m going through the comments suggestions, and while there is a lot of good stuff, let me be perfectly clear.
We are not doing a like button, rated comments, or nested comments.
We are not doing avatars. That failed miserably the last time we tried it.
We are not opening links in new tabs. If you want that to happening, try holding down the CTRL button while you click a link. You’ll be shocked and awed. Same with a link to go to the bottom of the page. Look at your computer. Press the buttons marked “home” and “end.” Prepare to be amazed.
You are not getting permission to post videos and pictures. I’m not going to wake up one morning and discover that Punchy has posted Two Girls One Cup 100 times in every comment thread.

Veritas
I see some people on here have concluded that Romney won’t have enough delegates by the convention.
On the contrary, after the victory in Ohio last night its all over but the concession speeches.
Looks like “progressives” will have to run against by far the most electable candidate in 2012 in a bad economy.
\And that’s not even taking into account high gas prices, Iran, and the new election integrity laws…looks like a tough road to hoe for Obambi.
Veritas
BTW, I think Cole banned one of my IP addresses again. How many fucking times do I have to tell you people–you can never get rid of me. I’ve got an unlimited amount of alternate IP addresses.

@Veritas: I agree with you that if the President tries to hoe the road, he’s in big trouble. There is just no way a tool like that can do anything against such a surface. And even if it did, what would you have? A well-weeded path for transportation, which would be a huge waste of time.

Here’s one difference between Limbaugh and Maher:
When a Republican criticized Limbaugh, that person almost invariably had to give an immediate, humiliating public apology.
No Democrat gives a shit about Bill Maher. Hell, if I didn’t get HBO (mainly for Game of Thrones) I wouldn’t have known the guy even existed.

The results from last night were, for me, just this side of ideal.
I was beginning to worry that none of the current candidates would be able to sew up the nomination and that it would go to a brokered convention. I was worried that, somehow, the R’s might come up with a better candidate that Dr. Paul and the 3 douchebags (yeah, I can’t think of any either, but anythings possible).

A smarter mod filter, please: one that puts you back in the comment editor instead of sending you into moderation limbo.
Fix multi-para blockquotes.
I hate nesting in comments: if you look at nesting on The Atlantic, you end up seven levels down with comments formatted one letter at a time.
And if Mittens is paying Reality Chuck, that explains why his campaign is farting and sputtering its way to victory like the old guy who rode a lawnmower across the US.

@Veritas: victory in Ohio? Really? That’s what you’re calling 1% of the popular vote (still under 40%), and winning half of the delegates?
You’d think, at some point, that this guy who is going to be so tough to beat in the general would actually be able to get a majority (or at least solid plurality) of REPUBLICANS in a primary in a swing state.

@cathyx:
CTRL+R is the solution to your problem. F5 if two keys are too much for you. If reaching for the keyboard is too much of an effort, a refresh is one mouse click away.
But you usually have to move the mouse a little bit to make that method work, admittedly this could be taxing to some Americans. ;p
Thanks for not ‘updating’ this place into another GOS. No PC/Thought Police hiding comments, no groups organizing to game the rating system, no ugly avatars that do nothing and waste my bandwidth.

I’m getting ready to pull my alternators (yes, dual) out of our Mustang to rebuild them.

Don’t want to cost anyone $$$, but a ban on active ads (ads with motion/video effects) may help the page load quicker. Or a button for a low def.

@Veritas: Keep in mind that the GOP is waging full scale war on the American economy in order to derail Obama. In addition to the forced austerity and consequent drops in infrastructure investment and layoffs of teachers, police, etc., the new bit is all of the GOP candidates screaming violently for war against Iran. This has the effect of ratcheting up oil prices, which is intended to screw the economic recovery. See the pattern? The Goopers don’t care about this country. They care only about their power. This is an orchestrated campaign.

Thanks for fighting the good fight to keep the site as simple as necessary to serve its primary purpose of informing us of political and human stupidity.
I teach all this tech and a lot more in a university setting and just discussed social computing in class. The failures (Second Life, MySpace, Avatar Chatbots, etc.) are becoming all too common as folks try to glitz up their sites.

Update from a couple upgrade threads back: Firefox 10.whatever on OSX Lion on the new MacBookPro is pulling up the site with no issues. Now that my cable is back on (something went dreadfully wrong for my little ‘burb and all RCN customers went black at 6:05 ET until 7:52).
However, my husband is still occasionally getting the mobile site on his bigger Lion MacBookPro, so there’s definitely a misidentification happening at the initial load. He uses the site w/o the trailing slash or without the www. and it comes up fine.

Something where you can flag a post as a “Favorite” on the site. Yes I realize that I can do the same with my browser, but it would be nice to be able to flag a post (reddit has it as a ‘save’ feature).
