I see it is a gif, I just see a still image, is it supposed to be a moving image?

You don't trust the javascript on this one site?

I mean it was almost all written by me and a lot of people here have been talking to me for almost 20 years.

And I enabled caching, so all javascript on this site will pretty much only be downloaded once and then cached.

And instead of taking 300ms to load a page it might take 500ms, but it adds *so much* functionality.

(Really. Javascript does not slow down this site appreciably.)

My apologies for not being able to appreciate all your efforts that had gone into JavaScript for Macstack, but while I think most of us can trust that you will not do anything even just a little odd--much less suspicious--with JavaScript, the reason why I have gone to such efforts with JavaScript is that Firefox is my general browser. While there are some sites like YouTube which absolutely require JavaScript (and for which I will toss at Safari which does have JavaScript enabled), my preference is to decide on a case-by-case basis whether or not I want to trust some web page requiring JavaScript (and sometimes my answer is "nah").

Though maybe I should look at Macstack with my Safari.

That's fine. I did go through a lot of effort a long time ago to make sure that the site would degrade gracefully so that anyone could use it without javascript.

To be honest, though, I never expected anyone to use it that way.

"degrade gracefully"

Explosion which killed its maker so contaminated his apartment building complex that authorities decided to burn the buildings:

This aerial shot was taken from Google Maps and is pre-explosion (which was in unit 109).

Police and FBI are investigating and have requested for any leads from the public, though people who knew the bomb maker were completely puzzled upon learning about his death.

The amazing thing about that is that none of the other people in that building seem to mind having all their stuff burned to the ground. I'm still having a hard time with that one, unless the insurance payout is massive.

That, and we may see some post-explosion (though pre-fire) pics showing the extent of damage to the surrounding buildings. In the one shot that my linked article did show, one can only clearly see damage to 109.

Ah, apparently the linked article was updated with that explanation. My (wrong) impression was that they were burning down most of the numbered buildings inside the red circle in the pic.
