At risk of sounding like an idiot, 30mph. I'm 80% sure I recognize that road.

Lol that is actually correct. Road is NY 198 in Buffalo, speed limit was lowered from 50 mph to 30 mph 6 years ago because of a crash.

30 mph is criminal for that road. Ketchup99, you are up next.

Oh yea they make sure you know it's that low. On a mile long stretch of NY 198 on GSV, I saw 4 speed limit signs with orange flags above them in a single direction, 2 of them have the "Your Speed" indicator, along with a cop on the side.

This one's next.
And the 30mph limit in Buffalo makes no sense. What's the point of a freeway if you're going 30?

Ahh! And so close to me, too. I was pretty sure it would be lower than 55, which is why I guessed 50. I even suspected that it might be in NY state somewhere, but figured NYC area, not Buffalo.

Technically an expressway, but agree, it is still ridiculous.

70 mph?

Does anyone else have trouble loading image links that don't end with a file type?

I have to open the image directly above in a new tab to see it; in this case, it takes me directly to Flickr.

Ketchup99: when you share from Flickr, you have to click the share button in the bottom right (the arrow), and then choose the BBCode option. Just copy-paste the code into the text box on your post.

Example:

slcg3 by Ketchup999, on Flickr

(although I would delete all the extra text besides the image)

Same here. It's such a common issue for me that I've just gotten used to opening the image in a new tab and don't even really think about it anymore.

It didn't show for me. I never had this issue until about 1-2 weeks ago when Flickr changed their default image format to something without a file extension. It's strange, as usually when some people can see photos and others can't, I'm one of the ones that can, but not in this situation.

I used to experience significant difficulty with some images, but after switching browsers, the issue went away (I went from Chrome to Edge -- same underlying code so the transition was easy).

Ketchup99's images are the only ones I can think of, across any thread, that I cannot see without opening in a new tab. Everything else seems to load fine. Before, when I was using Chrome, it started getting to the point where like half the images wouldn't load.

Not that either. And thanks everyone for the tips - I'll do that next time.
