Sorry, TOON posts suspended pending image hotlinking issue resolution

Hi all.

In case you haven't seen the announcement, the admins have temporarily disabled image hotlinking (i.e., seeing an image from another site in DU, not just its URL) while they work on a potential security issue that could exploit it. As one of us who was here during the 2016 hack and ensuing down time, I don't mind the inconvenience at all. Go Team DU! Patch that bug!

However, I'm not going to spend 30-40 minutes compiling a bunch of raw URLs, either. So, I'm suspending my TOON posts until the issue gets sorted out.

To tide you over, below is my source list. Check them out yourselves for your daily fix.

... as a former web master (I had 3+ domains I ran for a few years, gun coded them myself), sometimes we need to acknowledge that the information and sharing of that information comes first. There would be nothing wrong with turning off all javascript, hot linking and just about anything that goes into the CGI bin (some of that stuff can really eat up CPU and memory assets) during high traffic times or when under attack or risk of attack.

The information matters, the fancy curtains, not so much...
