I actually know exactly how you can tell you're middle aged, and I know because it happened to me, and then a week later to a friend of mine, two days after he laughed at me for telling him my experience.
It's when you see a whole crowd of 18-to-20-year-old girls, and you realize that (a) ALL of them look good to you, not just some of them - i.e. you no longer notice minutiae, and that (b) you can't have ANY of them.
My only consolation was that when this happened to me and to my friend, my friend was two years younger than me (well, actually, he still is)...

It's not even looks like C64 - a bit resembles Amiga 500, but not identical...
And why should you build a 8 bit computer for a few hundred dollars if you can buy a 32 bit for 30 and put an emulator on it...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Of course a C65 designed in 2015 also isn't the same, but it's closer

WTE is happening today, first no reply functionality, now the forum looks completely broke with this XY postet at XX time below the Posts.
Is this intended? I think the Hamsters are drunk t'day
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Are you using some mobile (small screen) device?
On large screen it looks OK, but on my phone it messed up for a few days already...

Nohpe, im using my pc at work, and it looks terrible. Maybe its a new design they wanted to implement though
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Well the problem was gone, several minutes after my post, it was just confusing
At the moment everything looks quite normal. Although the stipmenu (hover over my username to get to settings) seems to be displayed on a lower level sometimes. It disappears behind the ad or other elements.
Edit: Seems fixed too
BTW: using Firefox
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

OK, great.
Sorry for the confusion.

Which is - I suspect - rather overreliant on the accuracy of Google's tape measure...

I see, it just got restored to the old design but the buttons are missing again. Well i think someone broke something
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}
