weird dude who writes raw HTML

Eyy, that’s me! Good excercise to learn actual HTML, instead of directly trying to jump into <insert random JS framework> and getting confused on what’s what.

Anyway, I ended up switching to Hugo as a static site generator, because it was too damn hard to keep all my <header>, <nav> and <main> aligned for all my HTML files.

Now I can just write a markdown file as an article, or switch back to raw HTML if I so need (like rewriting Alan Turing’s paper " On computable numbers" in HTML because I can’t use TTS on the PDFs I found; I still haven’t finished writing it, because I am now reading E. F. Codd’s papers on the Relational Model, which is pretty wild how we already figured that shit out in the 1970s!)

Soon, Firefox can block ads better than Chrome. Ads are annoying. I see Chrome losing at least a 5% of the market, if not more, to Firefox, just because they’re going to break uBlock Origin, and Firefox isn’t.

Anyway anyone who feels attacked by the whole I’d rather a bear thing needs to stop being a pansy little shit.

I mean, the casual misandry stung a bit. Not sure why that’d make me a “pansy little shit”, lmao.

Anyway, the whole thing was ragebait and a big part of the internet fell for it (me included, at least initially).

Because there’s going to be kids around here who have never seen this port (other than maybe on a Point Of Sale (POS) system?)

I hope you can install Firefox, because The Googs is pushing for Manifest v3, which means no more functional adblock.

Linux or bust, babyyyyyy

FYI: There’s a series too - can highly recommend

• Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
• Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd GIG
• Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society

add “before:2023” to your search query

Just add before:2023 to your search query BTW.

Alright, fair point - I never watched old Trek though (blasphemy, I know).

When do the Predators show up? :p

We’re current using bump2version, which already is a fork, but doesn’t use toml and thus isn’t very strict in its config. Turns out there’s already a successor (forgot the name) that supports toml. Haven’t had time to switch yet, but it’s on the massive backlog of shit I want to fix.

Oh, I thought we were talking about things you see in STD that you don’t see in other Treks. I never mentioned anything about Woke.

Placing the bland Michael Burnham centrepoint isn’t something ST did before. The doc was fine, his partner nonsensicle, the redhead was ANNOYING and I’ve forgotten the rest - no, I don’t really care to spend too much time doing research - I just want to fucking vent. Nor did earlier ST FINALLY introduce another, possibly interesting character (the Freeza looking one) to IMMEDIATELY kill her off. My gods, I was fucking pissed. Then that one episode where a bomb was going to go off and someone had to be “left behind” or some stupid shit? There was NO reason to do that. And don’t get me fucking started on the LENS FLARE! THAT’S THE MOST UNSTARTREK THING I’VE EVER SEEN!

At least the customes looked pretty cool.

i’ve got a subscription for ChatGPT and tend to use it over Google, unless I know Google has decent results.

I don’t, mostly because I watched Asmongold talk about it, and now I feel weird playing with a female character online.

Though singleplayer I don’t feel any problems: Lara Croft, Rynn, Chell, Rayne, Jade - it’s all fine.

Maybe it’s just for customizable characters?

Can’t have Google kill Firefox, if Firefox does it first. Every few years they (IMO) fuck something up that makes me want to move away, but there’s no real alternative :/

Because Edge broke JSON files - I couldn’t search through an open JSON file anymore, because Edge decided to only partially load the file.

That’s nice and all, but stop fucking with my plain text. If I want to fuck with it, I can use my extensions, WHICH THEY DISABLED/BLOCKED…

So yeah, back to Firefox, and it’s been fine.

Same - I just track my accounts in my KeePass, so it’s not too bad. I have way too many accounts anyway, and I don’t trust Google/Microsoft to keep them safe in the long term, so KeePass it is.
