@Patrick - Minor suggestion. If it's hard or not worth it, just ignore it.

Comment and thread times for people in other time zones is a bit weird. I just commented in the bitcoin thread and it says it's 5am or whatever. It's 7 am where I'm at. If you posted at that time, it actually is 5am if you're in CA at that time. I'm not sure what this actually improves, but it's just weird to not know what time people may actually be posting.

I know nothing about this stuff, but I assume it would have to be a user adjusted setting, right? They select their timezone from a drop down or whatever? For reasons I can't explain I'd like it as a feature, but as I said, if it's a pain don't worry.

What the hell happened Patrick?

He's catering to the MINORITY (and sometimes a singular poster) instead of the MAJORITY.

Indiana Jones says

I know! Change name from patrick.net to mysogynist&racistswelcomehere.net

What the hell happened Patrick?

I suppose this is your true colors or you wouldn't allow all this crap on here. It's shocking, really. And sad.

I came here for the housing news initially. It was so vibrant then. And now it's like a cesspool of misogynistic and racist cretins.

All I can say is good luck with promoting your backward and hateful ideas. And Adios Amigos!

Which post(s) are you referring to?

He's just trolling while attempting a weak virtue signal. (Don't expect any evidentiary support for his flaming.)

You mean like this?

virtue signalling while being anonymous?? makes no sense

He forced a hard right bias and now the board is heavily moderated against anyone liberal

Apparently you're missing all the daily TDS posts by the usual subjects here. The liberal narrative is STRONG here.

Dear Mr self important anon, we were talking about IJ. He was even quoted. Read the thread.

We are all anonymous personas.
It's the persona that is virtue signaling.

Toddthebod says

Here's my two cents. The day calling someone a liar became abuse and those posts got deleted was the day the site was finished. When you have a group like the alt-right which can't even write a reply without lying, it eliminates all discussion and all that is left is a mountain of bullshit. People don't want to read bullshit all day long so they stopped reading patrick.net.

And TPB/Captain was never called to be banned by those who flounced (and often return anonymously) precisely for "Personal Attacks" that were "Ruining the Forum".

Toddthebod says

Calling out a liar is always ad hominem. Therefore now this place only appeals to liars. Clear enough?

Nope, calling out a liar and proving proof that poster lied is NOT ad hom. Sadly, you left wingers just can't handle the truth, and when called out on BS, play the Ad Hom card.

It's when you left wingers call someone a liar, but don't provide any substance, does it become Ad Hom. A certain feathered animal was an expert at that.

Man, it's the coolest anon ever!

Get down with your bad self!

Miss a little miss a lot I guess. Jesus, this got derailed.

@Patrick - No rush, just want to make sure my suggestion at the start of the day doesn’t get buried in the 8th grade drama.

@WookieMan I've been planning to let users set their own time zone. Maybe I can get that done today.

WookieMan says

OK, it's done. Now if you edit your profile on https://patrick.net/edit_profile you have the option to choose one of the main four timezones of the US.

Please let me know if it doesn't work.

Thanks for telling me. Which picture would not upload? Possible that it was not one of the known formats.

I should keep a better eye on the logs to tell when this is happening.

Keep links mainly housing and related economics

The article you posted on 'shared housing' is gold

Keep links housing and economics related

the popularism fluff drowns out the housing and economics gold

@Patrick For some weeks now, the title of the thread does not appear in my browser tab. Some page property is no longer being set.

@justme you're right, will look into it.

Please tell me more bugs too.

@justme I fixed it. Thanks for telling me!
