I tought it was something so people would need to click on the website to get the image, so the site's owners would get Ad revenue, even tho you can still open the image on a new tab.

It's kinda f*cked that you have to do that in 2018 though.

You can also simply Right Click > Copy Image > CTRL+V (Paste shortcut) you can also Copy Image Link to get the .jpg url and then copy paste

It's still f*cked if you ask me.

I agree, I too liked being able to "View Image" to check the resolution and stuff like that especially if I was going to use the picture for something like my desktop background

[Mister Kay]

I usually need very high res images which I used to find using the size filter but the preview that google shows isn't the original image. It is highly downsized.

 

I've found a workaround for now but I think it will be temporary:

[The Time Ranger]

Give duckduckgo a go. It's a decent search engine.

[ten-a-penny]

Where are the "View Image" and "Search Similar" options on Google Images? Two of the most useful options... gone. Then again, Google working backwards is nothing new.

Wait. They're gone? I though my laptop was high on meth again.

If there is truly no chairs to sit on then you can sit on the floor and she also told me she never planned on going to his party anyways because he said his parents weren't going to be home and she didn't feel right about it.

Nice to see you're raising your daughter with knowledge and self control.

I'm angry about internet here in Australia and the absolute idiocy employed by our gov't.

 

So basically Australia only had copper wiring (ADSL) to the houses which provided internet. So you would get like 0.1-30 Mbps depending where you lived.

 

Back in 2007 the left wing gov't decided to start upgrading the whole country to fibre optics, to every house, or if not, give them a reasonable alternative, just like every other developed country in the world.

 

This had to be upgraded eventually anyway, the copper cables are for corroding and they are quite slow for internet access, especially if you ran any kind of business that required you to upload photos online. Upload speeds were horrendous.

It was expected to cost (from memory) $30 billion

But afterwards everybody would have MINIMUM 100mbps internet and maximum 1000mbps/ 1gbit. It would have been really good.

 

Anyway, the conservative party decided to run a campaign to say it was a waste of money blah blah, it'll go over budget, we have a better plan that'll save $20 billion etc, and they got into power. Instead of going with the original plan, they stopped it immediately and did the most retarded thing that was possible; They decided to run fibre optics to the box in each suburb/street. But then leave the old copper cable to the houses. It's a bottleneck. Even an 11 year old would know that is a stupid idea; The idea was f*cking dumb for another few reasons, for example, the copper will need replacing anyway, so they should have done it at the same time while the street was already dug up with all the equipment etc on site.

 

The problem is that they didn't realize that the mixing of technologies would cause such issues. I don't know very well about this side of things but I imagine having to build exchanges in the street which support fibre optics and copper/can convert the light signals from fibre to electrical copper signals and adapters and what not just drive the cost right up. It Also causes a tonne of issues with connections dropping out, super slowness, etc. Oh the best part. They think this "cheaper plan" was going to save money. Nope. It's projected to cost nearly 60 billion now instead of the original 30 billionbillion. Even better, my internet is now slower and more expensive than what it used to be.

 

The former executive of the gov't company that was in charge said the original plan was better and would actually have been cheaper.

 

Why did they do this? It makes no sense

[Dacelo]

Speaking as another Aussie, I think the problem is instead of trying to ever work together on what is good for the people all Labor and the Liberals do is get into power and try and mess up what the other's did out of spite.

[Clem Fandango]

Nah it's because the torries hate everyone and their supporters are c/ucks who hate themselves.

I don't understand motherf*ckers these days. Here I am in the classroom, melting like a stick of f*cking butter, and these retards want to have the AC blowing AT ROOM TEMPERATURE. It's hot as f*ck outside. Who does that son? Like come on, the f*ck.

 

Yet, when it's so chilly that you can feel the wind through your jacket, they want to turn the AC all the way up, on WARM. Dude, I am not in the mood for this, heat makes me rage, and all these mouthbreathers sitting next to me, sucking up all the air. It's hot as f*ck, and you want to exchange morning breath amongst yourselves? f*ck this f*cking heat man. I'm moving to Alaska.

24-27C are DaWay2Go m8. Even 25C is enough and it uses less power. My sh*t AC keeps the room rather cold-ish even on 27C.

[ṼirulenⱦEqừinox]

Why did they do this? It makes no sense

Simple answer? Greed they're probably making money off the deal.

 

I have a buddy in Australia who I often play Payday 2 and some other games with and he complains about his speed all the time and sometimes it's so bad to the point where I can even see it on my end because he's rubberbanding all over the place.

 

He showed me a video one day of our Payday 2 gaming session to show me something and while I was watching the video I noticed something...

 

We were standing next to each other shooting down a bunch of SWAT that was coming in the building and there happened to be a Bulldozer who came in and I remember clearly that I took him down with my shotgun but on his screen the bulldozer didn't die and he had to kill him.

 

So the lag was so bad it wasn't even registering my kills for him and he was basically rekilling the people I had already killed and was on his own while I was able to see clearly the people he was killing on my side.

 

Than we decided to play The Crew for a little while as co-op partners to help each other finish races we each had trouble in and the rubberbanding was beyond horrible one second he'd be in front of me and the next he'd be behind me or something would happen where i'd wreck out but it didn't appear to him right away then all the sudden he'd slam into me and the car I wrecked out with.

 

I truly feel bad for ya'll and I though only having 5mbps sucked I can't imagine what i'd do if I had your speeds, I'd probably have no hair left

24-27C are DaWay2Go m8. Even 25C is enough and it uses less power. My sh*t AC keeps the room rather cold-ish even on 27C.

Sometimes I think my girls are cold blooded because even though I keep the temostat at 68 degrees F during the winter they are still freezing but that is too hot for me so even in the winter I sometimes have to turn the A.C on in my room/office to keep it at the 65F where I like it.

 

The one thing I love about my A.C too is, I can set it to a certain temperature and if it detects the room is hotter than the temperature I pre-selected the A.C will kick on long enough to cool the room back down to my desired temperature and then will go back into rest mode and will continue that process until I turn it off completely or I switch to always on mode.

You ever try to disarm someone with a knife, let alone fight them? It's easier to disarm a pistol, pistols don't go f*cking flailing about with a sharp edge and a pointy tip.

Americans disarming people? You either kill them in combat, or fill them with bullets after they've surrendered. "Disarm" is a word that does not exist in the American vocabulary. Seems like the word joke doesn't either, cause they can't stop making themselves look like one.

 

All Brits have bad teeth. And Asians are good at math.

 

Don't forget how the Polish are dumb as sh*t, while you're out there making massive generalizations.

Services such as PSN and Xbox Live need to put caps on how high players' ping can be. There's really no excuse to jump into a game with 300+ ping and ruin it for everyone else trying to enjoy the game.

Joke = dumb and not funny. Joke must have root in humor to be a joke.

 

Joke not joke, just stupid and ignorant statement.

Oh for sure. I just don't know if the idea was to piss people off so much they'd pay fibre optic the rest of the way to the house, or if one of their mates *cough Rupert Murdoch cough* was not being taken down by streaming.

 

Can't be sure these days.

Oh man I thought Americans couldn't be funnier but I keep getting proved wrong. People are now looking at teens to start a revolution over gun control while the old folks sit around and wait for them to save their lives. Even more funny is these white kids trying to add something on their transcript to get into Princeton get attenion with their overdramatic big words and "MarchForOurLives" sh*t yet the teens protesting DAPL and police brutality got ignored.

[anus]

f*cking fair weather friends man. When you're down, they're nowhere to be found, but when you're up, they start blowing up your phone. f*ck em.

[ten-a-penny]

with their overdramatic big words

I hope you end up finding yourself alone during a Mass-f*cking-Shooting and hear you speak. Then we'll see how your "overdramatic big words" bullsh*t will work.

[AlienTwo]

Which word in "March for our lives" is the one you consider "big"?

 

Gotta be "march." School must be hard for you, huh?

You're seeing through the bullsh*t, man. Don't expect anything but hate from most of society btw.

 

What you said reminds me of the time I was asked by a 'Marxist' at a university here to attend one of their rallies simply because I agreed with him about excessive government control being a bad thing. He asked me to put my number down in his (brand new at the time) iPhone 7, while he was decked out in some designer clothes and Ray Bans.

 

Hypocrites..

 

The vast majority of 'activism' today is something you do to be 'cool' and to 'fit in' with the rest of the idiots, no one really gives a sh*t about the cause itself, rather they're more concerned with how being associated with a particular cause will elevate their social/economic status.

Isn't that what the two of you are doing?
Continually moaning about westerners and how 'fake' they are, whilst simultaneously making sure everyone knows how WISE and KNOWLEDGEABLE you both are on social matters and f*cking conspiracy theories??

You are doing the exact same things you're complaining about, the only difference is you're not doing it for a 'cause' you're doing it so others can see how 'woke' you are.

Give it a f*cking rest, it's embarrassing to read.

Those aren't even real posters, they're just crisis actors. Look, there's a youtube video of them in California last year... no one EVER goes to California. Obviously they aren't real.

I don't give a f*ck about whether someone thinks I'm 'woke' or not. This is the way *I* see the world and how I see the countless fake motherf*ckers running around. I'm not any more wise or knowledgeable than anyone else, but I place importance on different things for sure. I don't have a problem with people from the West, this stuff happens all over the world. I wouldn't be living in the West if I didn't feel that the pros outweighed the cons.

 

It must be difficult for you to comprehend that there are people out there who don't really look for social approval when stating their views.

 

Oh and if you don't like my posts, please do yourself a favour and put me in your ignore list. This is nothing, I've got way more views that'll really put sand in your vagina, if you find this offensive..
