remember when you basically were forced to use waffleimages because radium or lowtax or whomever was mad at imageshack for some reason

quote:Lowtax has posted in QCS that imageshack was/is blocked "because MacBeth admitted using the SA Forums to advertise his stupid image hosting site for months upon months, if not years. He would regularly post 'updates' in GBS which served as nothing but blatant advertisements for his for-profit service. I don't appreciate companies using our forum members to unwittingly virally advertise their products, and if I discover any company trying to covertly advertise their poo poo through the forums, you'd better believe I'm going to block them."

write an extension that looks up each picture on ipfs instead just needs a hardcoded map of urls to sha256 hashes youd still get all 404 but now its ~decentralised~

technically, Imageshack is more successful seeing as it's still around, and it was originally a goon project

quote:Someone in fyad was hosting his sig at kth.cx, which was a huge drain on their bandwidth, so they decided to ‘teach him a lesson’, and replaced his image with a huge picture of nothing. Lowtax was angry because it broke the tables, and argued that if they were really concerned about bandwidth they would have replaced it with a 1x1 gif. Lowtax then filtered kth.cx to something so no one could use the service anymore. I miss web 1.0
