Hmmm the screenshot I just took isn’t showing up either. Seems like maybe GitHub is having a problem with images?
It's loading just fine for me. Maybe try a different browser, or private mode.
Either way, I'll close this issue because there's nothing I can do about it - I don't have any control over GitHub's servers!
Thanks, Chris!
I solved the problem. Sorry for the trouble.
For any other folks who happen to run into this problem, I'll explain the situation...
I am in the U.S. (San Jose, California in particular) and my Internet provider is Comcast/Xfinity. I noticed that I was having this image loading problem on all of the computers on my home wifi network and all phones as well, so since Chris said it worked fine for him, I suspected it was related to my home network. Based on that hypothesis, I disconnected my phone from wifi and let it use 5G. Then the images worked on that device. So that bolstered the theory that it was caused by the home network. I then opened the image in a new tab on my computer and got an error page and noticed that the favorite icon for the tab was an Xfinity logo. I then tried hitting stuff from the command line with curl
and saw this:
$ curl -sS user-images.githubusercontent.com | grep -i 'protected browsing'
<p class="opacity__70">Protected Browsing is enabled and <span class="br">has blocked this content because it's suspicious.</span></p>
<p class="opacity__70">To disable this setting, go to the Xfinity xFi mobile app or <a href="https://xfinity.com/myxfi" target="_blank">xfinity.com/myxfi</a> <span class="br">and navigate to Network, then select Protected Browsing.</span></p>
I noted these bits of text in the response:
so based on that, I opened the xFi app on my phone and browsed to the network. Then oddly while navigating around in there, the app popped up a message that said "Advanced Security enabled". I then refreshed the page on my computer and it worked!
TL;DR: If images aren't loading for you and you happen to have Xfinity internet service, open the xFi app on your phone and see if that fixes your problem.
My God. Welcome to the future...
It seems like images, such as the pinout and photo of use with a breadboard are not rendering for some reason. For example:
